Happy. Fourth.
In anticipation of the 4th of July weekend, I was compelled to read this very interesting (July 1 draft) manuscript: "Punctuating Happiness", by UPS Foundation Professor Danielle S. Allen of the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton. A political theorist friend's Facebook post led me both to the article and to this front-page NYT piece on it: "If Only Thomas Jefferson Could Settle the Issue: A Period is Questioned in the Declaration of Independence", by Jennifer Schuessler (July 2 online, July 3 print).
Professor Allen makes a thorough and compelling case for her claim that the second sentence of the actual Declaration of Independence parchment has a comma after the well-known phrase "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" — and not a period, as the most frequently reproduced version of the document, an engraving made by printer William J. Stone in 1823, would lead one to believe. The matter can't be resolved via visual inspection; the parchment is extremely faded, and Allen presents some evidence — suggestive but not conclusive, in my opinion, but that's neither here nor there — that it may have already been sufficiently faded at the time of Stone's engraving. Allen thus "advocate[s] for the use of hyper-spectral imaging to re-visit the question of what is on the parchment".
For everyone's reference, here is the relevant "second sentence" of the Declaration of Independence, as transcribed on pp. 2-3 of Allen's manuscript, with the "errant period" highlighted in green.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. — That to secure these rights governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundations on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.
Media uptake on uptalk
Yesterday afternoon, UC San Diego Linguistics grad student Amanda Ritchart presented her research (joint with Amalia Arvaniti) on the use and realization of uptalk in Southern California English at the 166th Acoustical Society of America meeting. This work is profiled in the ASA's press room, and has thus far received a fair amount of attention. You can hear and/or read about it on KPBS (San Diego's public radio station), at WBUR's Here & Now, on BBC News, and in the Washington Post. (See also this shout-out on the Linguistic Society of America website.)
Uptalk has been discussed many times here on Language Log, so regular readers are probably not unfamiliar with it. But one of the most recent Language Log posts on the topic ("Uptalk awakening", 9/29/2013) shows how relatively unaware of this long-standing feature of many varieties of English some folks still are. So the media coverage of Ritchart & Arvaniti's work is welcome — and on the whole pretty good, if a little biased toward a "wow, it's spreading to men!" interpretation of the research results, which kinda misses the point. But of course, if you scroll down to the comments (why oh why do I ever scroll down to the comments???), you'll see that many appear to think that the use of rising intonation at the ends of (some!) statements is the clearest evidence we have of the decline of western civilization. Sigh.
Update — more here.
Linguistics Goes to Hollywood
On April 19, the Linguistics Department at UC San Diego (aka the Extreme Southwest Wing of Language Log Plaza) hosted a special event as part of our celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the founding of the Department.
The event was entitled Linguistics Goes to Hollywood: Creators of the Klingon, Na'vi and Dothraki Languages, a panel discussion featuring Marc Okrand (creator of Klingon, Star Trek), Paul Frommer (creator of Na'vi, Avatar), and David J. Peterson (creator of Dothraki, Game of Thrones).
It just looks so much better in sign
On my commute home from Language Log Plaza West yesterday, I heard this brief piece on NPR about Lydia Callis, NYC Mayor Bloomberg's American Sign Language interpreter. (See also here, here, here, here, here — screw it, just search for "Lydia Callis".) A couple choice quotes from some of these stories:
From the NPR piece I heard: Callis was animated – both in her facial expressions and hand movements – the antithesis of the stoic mayor.
From this Bloomberg News piece: "She's awesome," Lynn Correa, 30, who has watched YouTube videos made about Callis, said today at a bus stop in Brooklyn's Williamsburg neighborhood. "She's much more expressive than [Mayor Bloomberg] is."
Don't get me wrong: I think it's great that Callis, and sign language interpreting generally, are getting some postive attention. But looking at the videos, I don't see anything other than a (very good) ASL interpreter — in other words, Callis is not doing anything extra special here, she's just doing her job, which is to translate what people are saying into ASL. I understand that there's the contrast with the otherwise somber Bloomberg, and that what is being translated is news about Hurricane Sandy, and that for many folks this may be one of the first times they've seen sign language interpretation up close — but I can't help pointing out here that the hand movements and facial expressions are defining features of ASL (and of other signed languages). The perception that we non-signers have that these hand movements and facial expressions are particularly "animated" and "expressive" is precisely due to our lack of experience with them as linguistic features.
Just in time for Open Access Week
Today marks the beginning of Open Access Week, and last week's announcement about changes to the Linguistic Society of America's publications program was like an early OA Week present. Some highlights:
Information about more Open Access goodness to come at the LSA's Annual Meeting in January here.
Joint LSA/MLA Organized Session on Open Access
The 87th Annual Meeting of the Linguistic Society of America is scheduled to be held in Boston, January 3-6, 2013. As it happens, the 128th Annual Convention of the Modern Language Association will also be held in Boston on the same dates. The LSA and MLA have planned a number of joint activities for meeting attendees.
The LSA's Committee of Editors of Linguistics Journals (CELxJ) will sponsor an organized session on Open Access publishing, to be held at the LSA on Thursday, January 3, 4-7pm. In addition to yours truly, our confirmed panelists include:
I hope that anyone planning to attend the LSA or the MLA will make time to attend this important and timely session. Building on its efforts with eLanguage, the LSA has recently committed to extend the range of the journal Language to include online-only, Open Access material; a business model for supporting Open Access publications is currently under consideration and will be available before the panel meets. The MLA Convention's Presidential Theme is Avenues of Access, including Open Access and the future of scholarly communication. The efforts on the part of both of these organizations to increase public access to scholarly work will be among the topics under discussion in this session.
Check this space soon for more/updated information. [ Update, 10/2/2012 -- abstracts for the session are now posted. ]
Endangered Alphabets
My attention has been recently drawn to Tim Brookes' Endangered Alphabets project and to its second Kickstarter project, Endangered Alphabets II: Saving Languages in Bangladesh. You can follow the links to find out more; copied below is the text from the Kickstarter page, with images provided by Tim Brookes and Hailey Neal. If you feel moved to pledge to their cause, please do so — they have 127 backers as of this writing, pledging a total of $4,535, with only 19 days to go to reach their goal of $10,000.
Last month on the EL trail
It's been a while since I've been on the endangered languages beat. Here are a couple of links of recent writings on the topic for those who are interested.
Open Access petition — an update
One month after it was created (on May 13) and a week before it will be closed to signatures (on June 19), the White House Open Access petition (which I pointed Language Log readers to on May 23) now has 26,768 signatures — 1,768 more than the 25,000 threshold! By my calculation, the average rate was over 1,190 signatures a day from the first to the 25,000th signature (by "David L" of Holmdel, NJ, who signed on June 3 — three weeks after the petition was created); after that, the rate dropped to just shy of 177 a day. No reason to slow down the pace now! If you agree with the petition, please sign it and/or pass it on to your agreeable friends — send a strong message to Washington that "[e]xpanding access would speed the research process and increase the return on our [public] investment in scientific research."
The trouble with making linguistic claims
There is a lot for reasonable people to agree with and disagree with in Philip Kitcher's recent essay in The New Republic, "The Trouble with Scientism: Why history and the humanities are also a form of knowledge". This being Language Log, however, I can only urge readers of Kitcher's essay to take the following linguistic claim with a healthy dose of skepticism:
In English we speak about science in the singular, but both French and German wisely retain the plural.
Kitcher's point in making this claim — and the actual, reasonable argument that follows it — is that "science" is hardly a singular thing:
The enterprises that we [English speakers--EB] lump together [with the singular word "science"--EB] are remarkably various in their methods, and also in the extent of their successes. The achievements of molecular engineering or of measurements derived from quantum theory do not hold across all of biology, or chemistry, or even physics.
This argument is a key part of the larger (and again, reasonable) argument laid bare in the essay's subtitle: that "history and the humanities are also a form of knowledge". Anyone interested in this kind of topic (as I am) is encouraged to read this essay, followed by the other links further above, and perhaps counterbalanced by this NYT Opinionator blog post. (And don't forget to squeeze the comments.)
So what about the linguistic claim? Unfortunately for Kitcher, it's complete hogwash.
Open Access petition
Every once in a while, an article is discussed or mentioned here on Language Log that many of our readers can't access without paying a hefty fee, whether to pay to view the article or to subscribe to the journal in which it appears. Many of these same readers are American taxpayers, and much of the research in those same articles is funded by governmental organizations (such as the NSF and the NIH) that are of course underwritten by American taxpayers. Why — the argument goes — should taxpayers pay again to access the results of the research that they are already paying for? What prevents those results from being disseminated (relatively) freely, so that all may benefit?
This is the gist of this petition that has been posted at the Obama Administration "We The People" petition site by the good folks at access2research. 25,000 total signatures are needed by June 19; as of this writing, they're almost halfway there. Please take a look at the petition and sign if you're for it.
And please also tell others about this petition! Stuart Shieber (computational linguist, open access advocate, and Director of Harvard University's Office of Scholarly Communication) has written and shared a message suitable for passing on to colleagues, friends, and family. Or, you can point them to the video found below the fold.
Create a language, go to jail
I've received several messages with links to this NYT piece since its appearance online on Sunday. The piece is on Dothraki, a constructed language used in the HBO series "Game of Thrones" and invented by David J. Peterson,
founder and President of the Language Creation Society and (as it happens) a former PhD student here in the Extreme Southwest Wing of Language Log Plaza. The piece also talks about constructed languages ("conlangs") and language constructors ("conlangers") a bit more generally, and most specifically with respect to their use in Hollywood. (That 'their' is purposely ambiguous.)
Quotes and context
HuffPo has a post today entitled "Michele Bachmann: 'I Haven't Had a Gaffe'", in which they take Bachmann to task for what she said to Greta van Susteren in a recent Fox News interview. This is easy bait for those of us who are appalled at the prospect of Candidate Bachmann and who have delighted at the many gaffes that she has managed to have in the course of her presidential campaign. But note the context from which the 'I haven't had a gaffe' quote was pulled:
As people are looking at the candidate that is the most conservative and the most consistent candidate, I've been that candidate. I haven't had a gaffe or something that I've done that has caused me to fall in the polls. People see in me someone who's genuinely a social conservative, a fiscal conservative, a national security conservative and a Tea Partier. I'm the whole package.
Watching the deceptive
After almost a month, I'm finally following up on the results of the single-question surveys that I asked Language Log readers to participate in. Each survey received an overwhelming 1500+ responses, and I didn't realize that I needed a "pro" (= "paid") account on SurveyMonkey in order to view more than the first 100. I owe special thanks to Mohammad Mehdi Etedali, to whom I transfered the surveys and who kindly sent me the overall percentages.
Pick a survey, either survey…
Ever wish you could participate in a little linguistics experiment? Neither have I. But anyway, now you can! I have set up two very easy surveys, one question each. (Well, it's not technically a question, but that's a word-sense issue for another day.) Pick one survey (either one, but please not both), read the question, and select one of the three possible answers. I'll wait about a
week month, and then post a discussion of the results. [Update, Sept. 5: there has been an overwhelming response to both surveys, but a slight preference for #2 (1500+ responses thus far vs. 1100+ for #1). So I've closed #2 but kept #1 open to encourage another 400 or so responses to that one. -- EB]
[Update, Sept. 7: both surveys are now closed, as they've both reached about the same overwhelming number of responses (1500+). Now I have to analyze the results, which may take longer than I originally thought so it may take another week or so. Speaking of which: anyone have access to a paid SurveyMonkey account? If so, please let me know…]
When you're done, you are allowed to
do either of the following (again, not both): (a) take a peek at the other survey (but don't answer the question!), or (b) let us know that you've completed the survey and you'll be entered into a drawing for a free one-year subscription to Language Log! Don't say we don't take care of our readers.
And, for those observing it: have a great Labor Day weekend.

American Dance & Music Week 2014 Questionnaire
1. American Dance & Music Week at Pinewoods Questionnaire 2014
Greetings from New England! I'm so glad that you'll be joining us at camp this summer.
This short questionnaire has two parts: The first part asks you what classes you are likely to attend. The second part asks about your ideas and preferences for camper-led after-dance parties. Your answers are not a formal commitment; you can always change your mind later. However, your input is very helpful as we plan for the week.
Besides all of the other things CDSS recommends you bring to camp, please also consider:
* Musical instruments for classes, jamming and the daily pre-dance procession
* Appropriate dance shoes for contras and squares, couples dance, and percussive dance. Please do not bring taps.
* Songs and tunes to swap at various jams
* Stories, games, music and stunts to share at Gathering
* Chocolate
* Snack foods for late-night parties
* Recording device for music classes
* Festive clothing: Hawaiian shirts, expressive hats, fancy socks, etc.

Dark corn syrup has color added and a caramel flavor, which gives it a darker color and a stronger flavor than light corn syrup.

YHA London Oxford StreetLondon, England
Fantastic location! right off Oxford St and an easy tube ride to any part of London. I stayed in a 4-bed dorm and the room was very very small, hard to even move around when all beds are occupied. Staff were friendly enough. No free wifi (this should be fixed!!)
Generator Hostel CopenhagenCopenhagen, Denmark
Great hostel overall! Loved the interiors of the hostel - very friendly and easy-going vibe. Great facilities and a nice hang-out space with loads of couches and beanbags and chairs. Good vibe! Hostel kitchen needs to pick up its game though! We tried to order food from there 3 nights in a row and each night they had an excuse as to why they couldn't serve us. Other than that, i'd really recommend the hostel!
YHA London CentralLondon, England
Good location, near Oxford St and close to tube stations. Dorms quite small, showers were clean but not very good. Staff were average, nice but not always helpful or willing to help. No free wifi!! Good food though and great lounge room/foyer downstairs - nice play to hang out.

NoZip 1.2.2
NoZip is a file joiner and splitter with steganography capabilities. Generates from multiple files a single file called List Of Files (LOF). Each generated LOF file has an associated index file called LOFi. The LOFi file is needed in order to split the LOF file and extract the initial files. A LOFx contains a LOF and a LOFi into a single file. LOF is a file without any extra overhead. This gives the possibility by renaming any LOF file into the first contained file to act like the first file. So if you have a LOF [photo.png.lof] containing these files : photo.png sound.wav movie.avi By renaming photo.png.lof into photo.png this will act like photo. The rest files are not visible. As you can understand NoZip can be used for steganography purposes since you can obscure files within other files. Only by providing the associated LOFi file you can extract and get the original files. In our case [photo.png.lof] + [photo.png.lofi]. ATTENTION : If you lose the LOFi you will not be ...

Only days after the Vice President announced he was comfortable with same sex marriages, President Obama announced his newly revised ("evolved") position on gay marriage. The debate has been whether Joe Biden forced the President's proclamation and boxed him in, but it may be that he used Biden to test the waters before he un-closeted his new position on the issue.
Advertisement-content continues below
No one can argue with the polls that show that a majority of people between ages 18-29 would side with gay marriage, even as most between ages 29-60 would reject gay marriage completely. Mr. Obama is busy trying to persuade the youth who have all the PC gab and Steve Jobs gadgets to gather in his camp. Most of those in the other age group are jumping ship before it hits the iceberg at full speed. The result of this awakening in the political realm will be made known on November 6, 2012.
It goes without saying that, since there is little chance or enough time between now and November 6 to enact a gay marriage bill or executive order, Mr. Obama has managed to buy the gay community's vote for the mere price of a well timed statement.
In the realm of prophecy, this is not surprising because a generation is predicted to come before the rise of all 'last days' portents that will be all but void of conscience, traditional morality, and completely in rebellion against God's revealed word.
All the business of polls, trends, and evolving viewpoints take nothing away from the prophetic message or the moral teachings of the Bible. In fact, they only accent and punctuate the promises that solidly declare that in the days of that generation, the world will change beyond recognition, but it will not end well.
Advertisement-content continues below
The spirit of anti-Christ precedes the coming of the man who the Bible refers to as the Anti-Christ. All this requires that a generation of militant non-believers be present to welcome in the man and willfully and exuberantly give him the rule over the entire world.
Under this man, ignoring God's laws will become normal, but that will quickly capitulate to active open resistance against any that refuse to bend under the rule of anti-Christ. The troublesome non-compliant believers will eventually be put to death.
"And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations." (Rev 13: 7)
Even as the prophesied generation is forming, they will be denying that anything like that could ever happen – witness today!
Like young people drawn to the noise of the party, an unsuspecting world will hear what their lack of morality falls into sync with, and it will be drawn up like the sucking of a mammoth tornado.
I have warned for over half my lifetime that the generation spoken of in writ has been forming, and, with the President's proclamation, there is little chance for error.

Long-Delayed White iPhone 4 to Finally Hit Stores
Apple is gearing up to finally release a white model of its iPhone 4 in the next few weeks.
According to a Bloomberg report, the latest version of the iPhone – which was put on hold for 10 months while the company dealt with manufacturing challenges , will be available from both AT&T and Verizon by the end of the month.
Apple had promised the white handset last summer after initially releasing the iPhone 4 in black. However, Apple ended up having to cite various technical difficulties in getting the phone out the door as the post-launch months dragged on, and an Apple spokesperson in October said the phone wouldn't see the light of day until spring.
But last month, an Apple executive via Twitter responded to a 16-year-old kid named Eric, stating that the white version of the smartphone will in fact hit shelves this spring.
"The white iPhone will be available this spring (and it is a beauty!)," wrote Phil Schiller, Apple's vice president of worldwide product marketing, on Twitter.
The new white model may attract customers while the company works on the next generation of the iPhone.

Lessons From Boston
RWJF Clinical Scholar Jeremiah Schuur, MD, an emergency physician at Brigham and Women's Hospital, helped treat many of the Boston Marathon bombing victims. Here's what he learned.
RWJF Clinical Scholar Jeremiah Schuur, MD, an emergency physician at Brigham and Women's Hospital, helped treat many of the Boston Marathon bombing victims. Here's what he learned.
Hurricane Sandy presented some of the greatest public health and emergency preparedness challenges from extreme weather in recent history, leaving dozens dead, and millions without power across a wide swath of the Northeast. This superstorm tested the capabilities of the public health system, and public health officials responded in heroic fashion. Public Health is there to help keep our communities safe and healthy before, through, and after storms like Hurricane Sandy.
The 10th annual Ready or Not? report from the Trust for America's Health and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation shows persistent gaps in states' preparedness to respond to events ranging from bioterrorist threats to hurricanes to serious disease outbreaks.
As state and local health departments cope with budget cuts, job losses, and the demands of preparing communities for both seasonal and H1N1 flu, it's more important than ever to build the evidence for what works—and what is cost-effective—in public health. Public Health Services and Systems Research answers questions about how public health can be structured, managed, staffed, funded, and organized so it can improve the lives of the people it serves.

Turning Point: Collaborating for a New Century in Public Health was designed in a pre-September 11th world, between the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, in an effort to transform the nation's public health system. The author examines the concept behind Turning Point, in particular, the notion of public-private-nongovernmental collaboration which lies at the heart of the program's vision. He describes the various activities of the Turning Point grantees and highlights their work in five states. Implementation of the program was slow and not always smooth. There were cultural differences between the two foundations which had to be addressed. Concern about bioterrorism preparedness and the infusion of federal funds complicated the initiative, forcing states to deal with terrorism as a transforming event, even as they tried to be the forces that would transform public health. By 2004, Turning Point had reached a funding level of more than $40 million and represents the largest privately funded attempt to strengthen the public health system in the nation's history.

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (AP) - Drunk driving arrests are way down in Miami Beach but that doesn't mean people are drinking and driving any less.
City police say that a reorganization of patrol zones in 2011 made officers forgo DUI stops to target other crimes.
The Miami Herald reported Monday (http://hrld.us/1aE8Yrq ) that Miami Beach police arrested almost 1,300 DUI suspects in 2009. Last year they arrested 492 and are on a pace to arrest 442 this year.
But the number of drunk driving accidents remains about the same.
Miami Beach is known for its wild nightlife.
Local leaders of Mothers Against Drunk Driving said the situation is frustrating. They point out that Miami Beach's failure to arrest drunk drivers endangers people in surrounding cities as the drunk drivers head to their homes and hotels.

About 300 East Randolph
Location: Chicago, Illinois
Developer: Walsh, Higgins & Company
Designer: Goettsch Partners
Size: 2.3 acres
300 East Randolph is a two-phased, vertically expanded office tower located at the north end of Grant Park in Chicago. The 57-story development sits prominently on a 2.3-acre site overlooking Michigan Avenue, Millennium Park and Lake Michigan in the city's East Loop district. The building primarily serves as the headquarters for Health Care Service Corporation (HCSC) and its Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois division. In the mid-'90s, HCSC required a facility that would consolidate operations while providing a plan for long-term growth—without relocating. The design team's innovative solution is the unprecedented concept of vertical expansion. The building's 33-story first phase was completed in 1997; more than a decade later in
Phase two was completed in 2010, adding 24 stories atop the original, fully occupied building. The phase two expansion allows HCSC to grow, as well as add other leading tenants, including top international law firm Baker & McKenzie and global management consultant McKinsey & Company.

text: Boston Manhunt Shows Importance of 2nd Amendment Rights Print article Send a Tip by Mike Flynn 19 Apr 2013 post a comment Friday morning, the entire city of Boston was put in lockdown. Residents were warned to "shelter in place," meaning staying locked in their homes, answering only to uniformed law enforcement personnel. Hundreds of police swarmed through the city, tracking a violent terror suspect who is possibly armed with explosives with a clear intent to kill. The situation is a reminder of why millions of Americans cherish their right to own guns to protect themselves and their families. Gun control advocates mistakenly assume Americans cherish their 2nd Amendment rights because of either a cultural anachronism or an affinity for hunting. The left looks at gun control as a debate over which guns Americans "need." They often argue, for example, that Americans don't "need" a 30-round magazine to hunt deer. That's true, but the debate isn't about "needs", it is about rights. The 2nd Amendment is not built on a foundation of hunting, but, rather, the ability to protect one's life and property. The manhunt in Boston today shows the very real threats that occasionally enter our lives. In a situation like Boston, seconds count, while the police are minutes away. Hopefully the second Marathon bombing suspect will be apprehended today without additional loss of life. Moreover, let's hope that no one has to try to defend themselves against the suspected terrorists. Gun control advocates, though, would be wise to reflect on the unfolding events to understand why many of us "cling" to our guns. The world can be a very dangerous place.

Great 3-point shooting display by the Kings in the 4th quarter did me in last night. The Rocks were right there with a double digit lead with about 4 minutes to go in the game, but almost like Notre Dame against Louisville on Saturday night, Sacramento surged back quickly with 3 quick treys. They were also fouled on another attempt and sank all 3 free throws, and that was about the end for the Rocks. It was a tough way to go, but sometimes it just happens that way. We move on.

PARLAY: CAVS (-290) over Wolves and PACERS (-500) over Nets - I'll come out with a (-160) payout here. I could go ahead and take my chances with 2 separate plays on the sides of both these games, and the trending data would certainly back me up. The Cavs (-7) are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 home games, and the favorite is 9-3 in the last 12 in this series. The Wolves are a feisty squad at times though, but they are only 2-6 ATS in their last 8 road games and 9-18 in their last 18 overall. I just can't get past laying more than 3 possessions on a team that's not in the playoff hunt. When it comes to the Pacers (-8 1/2), there isn't a whole lot to go on. The favorite is 19-7 ATS in the last 26 games in this series, but they real key may be with Brooklyn. This is a b2b closer for them, and they're only 2-7 SU when on the road in that situation so far this season. They're also playing their 5th game in 7 nights. And if that's not enough, the Nets are only 12-25 ATS in their last 37 games against Central division teams. CAVS 123, Wolves 109 and PACERS 104, Nets 82
1. 76ERS (+5 1/2) vs. Clippers - The Clips got a big monkey off their back by drilling the Knicks yesterday, but this might be a very tired team. They'll be playing their 6th game in 9 nights tonight as they close out their "Grammy Trip". It hasn't gone well so far for them, and the Sixers are certainly not in the elite category in the league. The one thing the Sixers will do, however, is kick and scratch and claw for a full 48 minutes. I'm not sure if I'm buying the projection I have for this game, but I can sure see this one being very close at the end. 76ERS 77, Clippers 69
2. BOBCATS (+4 1/2) vs. Celtics - It sure doesn't look right, but it just might work out. The Celts are on a b2b and off a 3OT game last night. I wouldn't suggest that they'll just be going through the motions tonight, but it's very possible that there won't be a whole lot of pep in the C's step as this game wears on. We all know the 'Cats are quite likely the worst team in the league, so I'd never think of backing them, but it might be a spot for them. That blind squirrel just might get a nut tonight. Celtics 96, BOBCATS 92
3. PISTONS (-5) over Hornets - I really thought about laying the Pistons here. They've been playing well lately, especially at home, but with them on a bit of a roll, it looks like the perfect time for a team like the Stingers to come in and give Detroit a bit of a problem. PISTONS 116, Hornets 94
4. Spurs (+2) at BULLS - As expected, the Spurs had a real problem with the Nets size for the better part of that game last night. They were able to overcome that when the Nets went cold in the 2nd half though. The Bulls are one of the best rebounding teams in the league, so even though the Spurs are 18-6 ATS in their last 24 b2b finishers, I can't make the move on them tonight. BULLS 96, Spurs 95
5. BUCKS (-4 1/2) over Wizards - The Bucks are one of those really frustrating teams for a guy like me. They really struggled on Saturday night against a Pistons team that was really tired from a grueling scheduling spot, and Milwaukee lost the game outright. In fact, the Bucks were never really ever close to covering the number, and it never really felt like they were going to be able to turn it on and get there. They should make amends tonight with a much shorter price, but the Wiz are greatly improved from where they were before John Wall returned to the lineup. This might not be a walkover for the Bucks either. BUCKS 97, Wizards 89
6. MAVS (-5) over Hawks - The Mavs have played much better, especially at home over the last few weeks, and the Hawks have been a big disappointment...AGAIN! There doesn't have to be much more said than that. MAVS 110, Hawks 102
COLLEGE HOOPS (6-6 ATS/5-5 SU/5-7 TOTALS yesterday)
1. Kansas St. (+8, O131) 72, KANSAS 71
2. OKLAHOMA (-15 1/2, U118) 67, Tcu 41
3. GEORGETOWN (-4 1/2, U122) 64, Marquette 47
The numbers say one thing, but the trending data says something completely different with the G'Town game tonight. The projection may come out to an UNDER, but trending data says that 9 of the last 12 meetings in this series have gone OVER, so be careful there. Also, I really don't like the Wildcats chances in Lawrence tonight against the Jayhawks. There's no way that anybody is coming into "The Phogg" and handing KU it's 2nd straight home loss and 4th loss in a row overall. And by the way, the last time Kansas lost 3 straight games to unranked teams, the Jayhawks won the national title with "Danny & The Miracles". Just food for thought.
Have a great rest of your Monday. I'll see you again tomorrow.

Saab has been in the news quite a bit lately, and mostly for the wrong reasons. But now that the Swedish automaker appears to have secured loans and buy-in from Hawtai Motors in China, Victor Muller and company are looking to go on the offensive.
Automotive News reports that the Spyker CEO is still talking China, but now he's entertaining the possibility of partnering with a Chinese company to distribute low-cost autos in the U.S. Muller reportedly says that Saab could utilize its dealer networks in the U.S. and Europe to sell $10,000 Chinese vehicles in two or three years. And just because Saab struck a deal with Hawtai doesn't mean that the Swedish automaker is restricting its plans to its newest strategic partner. Muller pointed out during an interview in Washington, D.C. that there are 120 companies in China, and that Saab is interested in "the one with a strategy."
There are many hurdles for Chinese automakers to overcome to finally breach the U.S. market, not the least of which is passing federal safety standards. Muller acknowledges that a five-star-rated Chinese vehicle likely won't happen any time soon, but he says that made-in-China SUVs can be had with tons of features for about $10,000, adding "Do you really worry about a five-star rating? They Look good."
Hmmm. We're guessing there will be plenty of buyers who don't want to drive a vehicle with compromised safety capabilities, but a low price tag could cure those fears. Of course, we also can't help but wonder how many luxury car shoppers will want to pay premium prices for Saab automobiles if they share showroom space with discount Chinese offerings – the Swedish automaker's residual values have been problematic enough as-is.

Globalization and the growth of the knowledge economy have heralded economic and technological challenges to both formal and nonformal education and training systems. These systems need to evolve into lifelong learning systems. The importance of knowledge and innovation is increasing, as is the reliance on technology and the demand for both traditional skills and new competencies. More and more, people need access to learning on an ongoing, continuous basis, requiring a stronger alignment of institutions and policies with the new demands of the economy for the creation of a high performance learner-driven system. But resources to improve access to quality education and training remain scarce.
Developing countries, in particular, face specific challenges: the need to expand coverage to achieve universal access to basic education as well as increased access to secondary and tertiary provision; improve the linkages between formal and informal education systems and the labor market; raise the quality of learning; and expand access to learning opportunities beyond initial formal schooling. How developing countries respond to these challenges will affect economic growth, human capital development and social cohesion. The overall goal of the Conference is to identify policies needed to ensure that education and training systems respond to the needs of the knowledge economy and facilitate lifelong learning. The Conference will examine six major issues affecting the education and training systems in the context of developing lifelong learning. During the conference government officials from industrial and developing countries, leading private sector and NGO specialists, academics as well as representatives of key bilateral and multilateral agencies will present their views and experiences and discuss upcoming issues of lifelong learning.

The German Festo AG & Co. company's core business involves automation with pneumatic components and systems, as well as initial and further training in the field of industrial automation.
It is within this context that the C-Master management development program represents an innovative management training concept for executives and potentials. It integrates knowledge management, human resources and organizational development, and is the key to immediate and sustainable value creation on behalf of the company. Beyond this, the C-Master program expands the management skills of its participants, and serves as a point of departure for lifelong learning.
Detecon&Diebold Consultants, a Member of T-Systems of the Deutsche Telekom AG is a leading consulting company in business and IT, providing excellent management consulting and worldwide experience on the network provider market and convergence area. Working internationally they are also driven by the fact that "The idea of enabling people, no matter where they are, to develop their skills and competencies and connect to global communities to share and expand humanities knowledge is deeply mooving."

With the exception of Neil Walker's Opening Day walk-off home run, the Pittsburgh Pirates' offense had been devoid of punch in the first three games of the season.
Game 4 was a little different, as Pedro Alvarez launched two homers, Travis Ishikawa had one and the Pirates (3-1) pounded out 16 hits in a 12-2 home rout of the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday night.
Alvarez had only one hit, a single, previous to Friday, but last year's National League home run champion put two over the PNC Park fences against St. Louis starter Shelby Miller. The Bucco third baseman stroked an opposite-field dinger in the second and a 440-foot shot to center in the fourth. Three batters later, Ishikawa followed with his first as a Pirate to make it 3-0.
Second-year Pirates righty Gerrit Cole survived some hard contact early and a two-run blast over the Clemente Wall by Matt Carpenter to go seven innings on a career-high 107 pitches. Cole struck out just three, but he induced 13 groundouts to keep the powerful Cardinals (2-2) at bay.
Starling Marte keyed the Pittsburgh lineup with a team-best three hits out of the leadoff spot, including a triple. Defending NL MVP Andrew McCutchen had a three-bagger himself, a two-RBI gap shot to cap the Pirates' five-run eighth.
McCutchen also added a single, while Russell Martin had two hits and drove in two. Slow-starting Travis Snider picked up a pair of singles as well.
While the eighth broke the game wide open, a strange three-run sixth created some separation. Martin drove in Alvarez with a sharp single up the middle, making it 4-2 Pittsburgh, but the fun was just starting. After Walker singled Martin to third, Gaby Sanchez pinch-hit for Ishikawa against reliever Seth Maness.
Walker took off for second on an apparent hit-and-run, but Sanchez couldn't reach an outside pitch. St. Louis catcher Yadier Molina pump-faked and threw to third to pick off a wandering Martin – except the ball hit Martin in the back and caromed away.
Martin scored on the play, while Cardinals manager Mike Matheny and Molina argued the obstruction was intentional. The umpires disagreed. Sanchez added a ground-ball single to plate Walker and make matters more comfortable at 6-2.
Six combined Pittsburgh runs in the seventh and eighth made the night even more joyous for what remained of 23,342 fans. The game began just past 8 p.m. following a rain delay, but the Bucs made the wait worth it.
The Pirates and Cardinals square off Saturday night on MLB Network. Francisco Liriano gets his second start of the year, looking to follow up his six shutout innings from Opening Day.

Nancy Kissel's decade-long fight against charges that she murdered her Merrill Lynch & Co. banker husband ended in Hong Kong today as a three-judge panel ruled that her conviction can't be appealed again.
Nancy Kissel, who admits to killing her Merrill Lynch & Co. banker husband in 2003, will ask Hong Kong's highest court one last time to let her appeal a conviction for murder.
Nancy Kissel , accused of murdering her banker husband, told a Hong Kong court today he was abusive with her and one of their daughters.
Nancy Kissel , the Merrill Lynch & Co. banker's wife who won a retrial for his murder in Hong Kong, was convicted again unanimously and sentenced to life in prison yesterday, more than seven years after the crime.
Nancy Kissel , who denies murdering her Merrill Lynch & Co. banker husband in 2003, stood to gain millions of dollars from his death, prosecution lawyer David Perry told a Hong Kong court in her retrial.
Nancy Kissel, accused of murdering her banker husband, broke down in a Hong Kong court today after saying that she wasn't able to help their daughter and said she tried to protect herself from abuse by spiking his drinks.
Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. lost a bid to recover an alleged $11 billion "windfall" from Barclays Plc 's purchase of its defunct brokerage unit when a judge ruled the transaction was fair.
Nancy Kissel , who has admitted killing her Merrill Lynch & Co. banker husband, told Hong Kong's High Court yesterday that he was an absent spouse who physically and sexually abused her.
MBIA Inc. won dismissal of a lawsuit by banks including UBS AG and Bank of America Corp. claiming the bond insurer's restructuring was tantamount to a "fraudulent conveyance."
A Hong Kong jury reconvened today to decide whether Nancy Kissel is guilty of murder or manslaughter in the 2003 killing of her Merrill Lynch & Co. banker husband.
