dear winebuyer
"I'm sorry, I don't have time to taste today." Oh, that's too bad… I have (insert hipster/culty/somm's current wetdream wine here) open… "Oh, I have time to taste that…" sigh.
I know it's not Friday, but I couldn't wait to post this one. One advantage I feel pretty good about in my line of work is the insulation I have from the general wine-drinking public, with the exception of the occasional consumer event I help Winebuyer out with and the inevitable peppering stream of questions […]
Dear Winemaker, No person with half a palate, or half a brain for that matter, is going to spend $42 on your over-oaked, over-ripe swill. But call me if you get a 94 from Parker and then we'll talk. Best, Wine Rep

Sacramento, CA – The Center for Digital Government presented the California Secretary of State's online voter registration application RegisterToVote.ca.gov with its Best Application Serving the Public Award today at the 2013 Government Technology Conference West.
"My team worked at breakneck speed last year to build the California online voter registration system that made it as easy as possible for any eligible Californian to register any time from anywhere," said Secretary of State Debra Bowen, California's chief elections official. "This award is a wonderful recognition of that monumental accomplishment in service to the people of California."
To build the online voter registration system, Secretary Bowen secured federal funding for the project so there was minimal cost to California taxpayers. Bowen's staff then built a secure pipeline between the Secretary of State, the Department of Motor Vehicles and each of the 58 county elections offices, and established security procedures and policies that protect the privacy of applicants.
Within nine months of starting the project, Secretary Bowen launched online voter registration on September 19, 2012. Of the 17,792,047 Californians currently registered to vote, more than 887,437 have used the online system to register for the first time or update their voter record.
The Center for Digital Government is a research and advisory institute on information technology policies and best practices in state and local government. The Center's Best of California Awards recognize innovative professionals and projects in California government and educational institutions.

Air traffic controllers received an emergency radio call from a person representing the airplane. The pilot responded that oil was on the airplane's windshield and that oil pressure was zero. The airplane was given a heading to divert to the closest airport. The pilot was asked if he could maintain altitude and he responded "no." The pilot advised that he was going to land in a field. Air traffic controllers alerted crash, fire, and rescue personnel of the airplane's location. The airplane was found near the top of a crest in rolling pastureland about eight miles northeast of the diversion airport. The empennage was streaked with a liquid consistent with oil. The windshield was broken and pieces of it were coated with a liquid consistent with oil. An on-scene examination of the wreckage revealed no airframe pre-impact anomalies. The top right side of the engine, aft facing forward, was coated with a liquid consistent with oil. The engine case and cylinders showed no pre-impact anomalies that would have precluded engine operation. The top of the separated reduction gear case was coated with a liquid consistent with oil. Disassembly showed that the upper right section of the nose seal assembly, which sealed against the reduction gear case, exhibited an area coated with a liquid consistent with oil. The remainder of the seal was intact and was not coated with liquid. The airplane did not have shoulder harnesses installed and was not required to have them installed. Advisory Circular 91-65, Use of Shoulder Harness in Passenger Seats, in part, stated, "The [National Transportation Safety Board] concluded that shoulder harness use is the most effective way of reducing fatalities and serious injuries in general aviation accidents."
The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident to be:

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) -- A West Virginia labor historian is set to present a discussion on the Socialist Party in the state.
The West Virginia Division of Culture and History says Fred Barkey is scheduled to hold the free program at 6 p.m. on Jan. 8 at the Culture Center in Charleston.
Officials say the first local branch of the West Virginia Socialist Party was established in Wheeling in 1901. By 1914 several thousand West Virginians were dues-paying members of local branches. Local members began electing candidates to office by 1910 and more than 15,000 state voters cast their ballots for Socialist presidential candidate Eugene Debs in 1912.
Barkey examined the rise of the party in West Virginia at the end of the 19th century through its decline before and during World War I.

2012 OPEN FORUM Abstracts
Kitty Hernlen, Susan Johnson, Randall Baker; georgia health sciences university, Augusta, GA
Background: A 2009 community needs assessment for the East Central Health District (ECHD) of Georgia determined there was a strong need for education for children with asthma. Senior respiratory therapy students from the Georgia Health Sciences University, under faculty guidance, developed an In-School Asthma Education Mini-Camp, for children ages 5- 14. The Asthma Mini-Camp program was implemented in three counties (Richmond, Warren and Emanuel). Methods: Lesson plans were developed for children ages 5-14 by senior respiratory therapy students. The plans covered anatomy, triggers, peak flow monitoring and medications. Each plan included a short lecture and an activity that reinforced the lesson. All asthmatic children were provided with a peak flow meter and holding chamber and were instructed in the use of each. Senior Respiratory Therapy students taught the program and junior students assisted with the activities. All lesson plans and activities were detailed in manuals to allow replication of the program in following years. The mini-camps were designed to last two hours. However, each school had different time constraints. School A allowed a 2 hour session for asthmatic students. School B requested all students attend the program during PE classes over a 2 day period. School C had small groups of asthmatic students attend the program during multiple sessions in one day. The senior students attended debriefing sessions with faculty and utilized blogs to recommend changes in the program and analyze their feelings about the Mini-Camp program. Results: 14 senior students and 9 junior students participated in the asthma mini-camps. 149 students with asthma and 304 non-asthmatic students attended the mini-camps. Respiratory therapy students reported a greater understanding of the need for asthma education among children and parents. They also reported a need for flexibility, creativity and visual aids in the delivery of the program. The students felt smaller groups worked best for the delivery of the asthma mini-camps. Conclusion: An asthma in-school education program requires flexibility in working with schools and in the delivery of the program. It can provide a real life learning experience for both the participants and the RT students. The asthma mini-camp project will be continued and delivered to several schools in the ECHD this fall.

OCYF Transitions to the DPW Medication Administration Train the Trainer Model
All providers licensed under the Chapter 3800 regulations were notified about the transition process from the Office of Children, Youth and Families (OCYF) Medication Administration Model to the Department of Public Welfare (DPW) Medication Administration Train the Trainer Course in a letter sent July 9, 2007. View this Letter (PDF download).
The effective replacement date of the new DPW model is June 30, 2009. As of June 30, 2009, the OCYF Medication Administration Model should no longer be utilized, as The DPW Medication Administration Training Model will be deemed the only Department approved curriculum for Chapter 3800-licensed providers. All facility staff who administer oral, topical and eye and ear drop prescription medications and epinephrine injections for insect bites, must be trained using the new DPW Medication Administration curriculum.
Registration for The DPW Medication Administration Train the Trainer Course was offered to Chapter 3800-licensed providers beginning in September 2007. Due to anticipated need for additional course offerings, the Department scheduled over 90 sessions for Fiscal Year 2007-2008. Registration for these course offerings has been low, therefore, courses with insufficient enrollment will be cancelled to avoid incurring additional costs. Many of the venues reserved for these sessions require cancellation four to eight weeks in advance of the event date so it is necessary to ensure sufficient registration counts well in advance of a course offering date. In the event of a course cancellation, existing registrants in each session will be re-scheduled into other sessions. Due to course offering cancellations caused by low registrant numbers, it is strongly advised that anyone interested in completed the train the trainer course during this fiscal year register as soon as possible.
Registration information is available in the Department of Public Welfare Medication Administration Train the Trainer Course brochure or by contacting ODP Consulting System at 1-800-438-1958. The brochure can be found at Train the Trainer Course as well as the Recertification Course Brochure.
As with the current OCYF model, the DPW Medication Administration Training Model does not include a diabetes education component for non-licensed staff who wish to administer insulin, according to Section 3800.188(b) of the Chapter 3800 regulations. Non-licensed staff persons who wish to administer insulin may consult with Diabetes Nurse Consultants at the Department of Health regarding availability of this specific type of training.

The strict carbon emission limits recently proposed by the Environmental Protection Agency will mean higher electric bills for business and residential consumers. The warranted outrage over this latest maneuver, which comes with no evidence of improving overall air quality, was plentiful and came from various corners. A few examples:
U.S. Sen. Joe Donnelly (D-Ind.): I strongly believe there is a way to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, protect our environment and our health, while at the same time make sure we are not excessively burdening the Hoosier families and businesses that rely on affordable power. The regulations proposed fail to meet this basic, common sense objective.
Republican Indiana Gov. Mike Pence: These regulations will drive up the cost of electricity at a time when our economy can least afford it. In addition, the higher cost of electricity will disproportionately affect low- and fixed-income Hoosiers. Manufacturing states, like Indiana, will feel the brunt the greatest as our industrial sectors put more of their revenue toward their electricity bill and less toward putting more Hoosiers to work.
Hal Quinn, president and CEO of the National Mining Association: The rule effectively bans construction of the most efficient power plants the nation will need to provide affordable electricity for a growing economy and will certainly create further economic hardships for millions of families, especially those most vulnerable to higher energy costs.
Specifically, the new standards mandate carbon capture and storage technology be used on all new coal-fueled power plants. Smart, necessary regulation by the EPA makes sense; this does not. The EPA is putting at risk our most plentiful energy resource (coal), one that supplies nearly half of our nation's electric power. In addition, the carbon capture and sequestration technology being suggested is not yet proven in an industry setting.
Locally, Hoosier families and businesses get more than 80 percent of their electricity from coal. Indiana consumes 70 million tons of coal per year. The early retirement of these coal-fired power plants – which will happen – will require substantial switching to primarily more expensive natural gas to meet growing demand. Again, that will mean higher electricity costs for you, me and our employers.
It's time for everyone to contact their members of Congress and urge action against the EPA.

Maybe back in the stone ages (or the 1950s) it was okay for a man to just pick up a bar of generic-brand soap and use it from head to toe. Well things have changed. With a new generation of men publicly confessing to waxing, facials and pedicures, it's suddenly acceptable for a man to be well groomed. Well, sort of. Perhaps he's a product junkie on the inside, but your man may steal your products out of the bathroom cabinet so stealthily that you'd think it was a covert CIA mission. So if you're tired of going for your favorite moisturizer only to find the jar empty, it's time to get your man his own stash. And by all means, the products don't necessarily have to boldly read 'for men!' for your guy to crave them.
Men should start out with a cleanser that's tailored for their skin. Jurlique has a few different foaming cleansers that allow him to target his personal needs (especially helpful if you have sensitive skin and his is dry). When it's shaving time, Weleda's non-foaming Shaving Cream lightly lathers with skin-silkening ingredients. It really provides a much better shaving experience than those chemical-laden drugstore versions. Primavera's Witch Hazel Floral Water is a perfect soothing post-shave treatment because its organic ingredients soothe raw, irritated skin.
If your man simply won't go for spritzing something on his face, Dr. Hauschka's Rose Day Cream (or the Rose Day Cream Light in the warmer months) also works wonders after shaving. This strengthening cream soothes and moisturizes while reducing redness. And contrary to what the name may imply, you can assure you guy that he won't smell like his Aunt Mabel. My husband Jeff is one of the many guys that I know who loves to hijack Primavera's bestselling Evening Primrose Face Capsules. They come in man-friendly single servings, so there's no guesswork involved when applying these power-packed moisturizing oils (which is perfect when your guy believes that reading directions, even for skincare products, is for 'sissies').
In the shower, keep a bottle of Santaverde's Aloe Vera Shower Gel handy. It's non-girly packaging and name will entice your man to give it a try. Once he experiences the light, decidedly not-at-all-feminine scent and refreshing, moisturizing formula, he'll beg you to keep it in stock. You might not realize your coveted organic deodorant is strong enough for a man. But trust me it is. After an entire day of wearing Erbaviva's Lemon & Sage Deodorant or Weleda's Sage Deodorant, Jeff isn't at all worse for wear (or more accurately worse for smell). He keeps going back day after day. So I'd suggest you buy enough for two, or get him his own signature 'scent' to help him feel a bit more manly. There's just something tantalizing about a man who smells yummy. And Florascent makes several scents that you can both use, as well as some targeted just for men. Jeff loves the warm Du Soleil blend for men with wild tarragon, sage and cedar. He goes back and forth between that and Thé Vert, a fresh, unisex scent with Chinese green tea and cedarwood. Personally I love smelling Monsieur Balode on a man. It's a perfectly sexy combination of mountain man meets gentleman with aromatic hay, wood, patchouli and fruity davana.
In the hair department guys don't really want a hairspray (at least any of the guys I know). Instead, they prefer a styling gel like John Masters Organics Sweet Orange & Silk Protein Styling Gel or Simply Organic Moisturizing Soft Gel. Both are light and gentle, styling hair without leaving it tacky or sticky. The result is soft, nourished hair that you'll want to run your hands through.

Jobs Increase in Wyoming
The Research & Planning section of the Wyoming Department of Workforce Services has reported that total unemployment insurance covered payroll increased by $2.7-million; one full percent in third quarter 2012. Employment rose by 1,649 jobs but the average weekly wage decreased by $4.00, or ½%. Teton County gained 173 jobs and its total payroll increased by $3.2-million, or 1.7%. Growth was seen in a number of sectors, such as accommodation & food services, professional & technical services, health care & social assistance, and transportation & warehousing. Despite the recent growth statewide, overall employment remains approximately 10,000 jobs below its third quarter 2008 level, that's a 3.4% deficit. In third quarter, total wages and average weekly wage grew at a much slower pace than their five year averages Analysts have noted that "minerals related employment is one of the key predictors of sales and use tax revenue" in Wyoming.

LOS ANGELES — For the second straight series, Matt Kemp helped the Los Angeles Dodgers win the finale with a game-ending home run. Thursday, the Atlanta Braves were the victims.
Christhian Martinez surrendered the deciding hit on an 0-2 pitch, three innings after Casey Blake tied it in the bottom of the ninth with an RBI single on an 0-2 delivery from Craig Kimbrel.
Despite taking the lead with David Ross's two-out, two-run single on an 0-2 pitch in the ninth, the Braves lost 5-3, dropping a chance to split the four-game set.
"You can't make mistakes 0-2, and we did today," Atlanta manager Fredi Gonzalez said. "Any time you do that late in the game, you're asking for trouble."
Both teams were down to their final strike much earlier.
In the top of the ninth, the Braves rallied with three two-out hits and a walk against Clayton Kershaw, who had held them to just hits through the first eight.
"It was great to see our guys do that," Gonzalez said. "In all this, you almost forget Kershaw's performance.
"The way he was pitching, for us to scratch out a couple of runs off him when he was in line for the 'W,' we feel good. In fact, I told the guys that when they came in here."
Andre Ethier, who extended his career-best hitting streak to 18 games with an infield single in the third inning, doubled with one out in the Dodgers' 12th against Martinez (0-1). Kemp sent a drive over the fence in left-center for his fourth homer of the season.
Sunday, Kemp hit a two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth to beat St. Louis 2-1.
"Matty's awesome," Kershaw said. "I told him what an incredible job he did and thanks for picking me up. In that situation, where both bullpens are getting eaten up, for Matty to pull it out like that with an 0-2 count, it was an awesome at-bat."
Matt Guerrier (1-0) pitched two innings for his first National League victory after seven seasons with Minnesota.
Chipper Jones started the Braves' ninth-inning rally with a two-out single, and Dan Uggla followed with a single. When the throw went to third, Uggla hustled to second and made a headfirst slide to barely beat the throw.
After rookie Freddie Freeman walked on a full count, the 23-year-old Kershaw got a visit from rookie manager Don Mattingly. Kershaw was allowed to stay in and Ross singled to put Atlanta in front.
"I love the fact that Donnie had enough confidence to keep me out there," Kershaw said. "I want the ball in that situation so that win or lose, it would be in my hands. You know, 27 outs are hard to get, so I learned my lesson today."
In the Dodgers' ninth, Jamey Carroll drew a leadoff walk from Kimbrel and advanced on a wild pitch. Blake's clutch hit saddled Kimbrel with his first blown save in five chances.
"I tried to go with a fastball away, and it just wound up over the plate," Kimbrel said. "I didn't get the pitch where I wanted to, and he made me pay."
Kershaw faced the minimum 12 batters through the first four innings. He retired the first 10 he faced, then gave up a single to Alex Gonzalez in the fourth before picking him off.
In the fifth, Freeman opened the scoring with a home run to right field on a 2-2 pitch.
Juan Uribe tied it with a leadoff homer in the sixth against Jair Jurrjens, his first with the Dodgers after hitting a career-high 24 last season for the World Series champion San Francisco Giants. The 11-year veteran had four RBIs in Wednesday game, after driving in only three runs in his first 60 at-bats of the season.
Blake put the Dodgers ahead 2-1 in the seventh, connecting against Scott Linebrink for his first homer of the season.
Jurrjens allowed a run and seven hits in six innings and struck out six.
"You know that when you face the ace on the other team, you need to limit the runs," Jurrjens said. "Kershaw is a good pitcher, a strikeout pitcher and a dominant pitcher. And he showed that today until the ninth."
Thursday marked the 121st anniversary of the first win by the Dodgers franchise, which was then known as the Brooklyn Bridegrooms. The team they beat was the Boston Beaneaters, who are now the Braves.

Investigators say a skull found in Southwest Sedgwick County belongs to a woman.
Campers found the skull near Cheney earlier this month.
Preliminary forensic evidence shows the skull is of a female, 18-25 years of age, of African descent, and has been there for possibly one to 15 years, said Sedgwick County Sheriff's investigator.
More information will be released on Tuesday.
Sunday, May 1, 2011
The investigation into the mysterious skull found in Southwest Sedgwick County will continue into the coming weeks.
The Sedgwick County investigations team along with Anthropology experts from Wichita State University will return to the site this week, according to Sheriff Robert Hinshaw.
Deputies were called out to West 103rd St. South and South 343rd St. West, Friday night, when campers found a human skull in a nearby creek.
Hinshaw says the next step in the process is to determine the age, race, gender and how long the individual has been deceased.
The investigating team will return to the recovery site this week to try and find the rest of the remains as well. At this time, the Sheriff believes the skull may have floated down stream.

Bea Arthur was born on May 13th, 1922 in New York City, New York with the birth name Bernice Frankel. She was raised in Maryland where her parents made their living running a dress shop. By the age of twelve she was already 5'9" and was beginning to show an interest in working as a model and actress, however this was not a career choice she thought her parents would show an approval for.
She attended Linden Hall High School which was an all girls school in Lititz, Pennsylvania and then went on to college at Blackstone College for Girls where she first became active in a number of school drama productions.
Bea decided to listen to her parents and after college she found work as a laboratory technician. She also found work as a truck driver and a typist in the Marine Corps.
Upon completing working for the Marine Corps she approached her parents and shared with them her desire to work in show business. They agreed to help support her dream and she therefore enrolled in the New York's Dramatic Workshop for the New School for Social Research.
She began by mostly being trained in dramatic and classical roles before she realized her strength was working as a comedic actress. Her first stage role to really gain her any attention was in the musical, "The Three Penny Opera".
Soon she was offered her first television role in, "Caesar's Hour" (1954). Her next stage role that brought her to the attention of top critics was in the Broadway play, "Fiddler on the Roof" (1964). She then won a Tony for her role on another Broadway play called, "Mame" (1966).
Her career and popularity was reaching new levels and then she was offered a role as Maude Findlay on the hit sitcom, "All in the Family" (1971) which lead to her getting her own sitcom, "Maude" (1972). Some of her other more well known roles were in the television movie, "The Star Wars Holiday Special" (1978) and on the sitcom, "The Golden Girls" (1985) which lasted a total of seven seasons. She even won an Emmy for her role in the sitcom.
When Arthur felt that both sitcoms, Golden Girls and Maude had reached their level of success she notified producers that she was leaving the shows and therefore they were both cancelled knowing that neither would continue to be successful without her presence on them.
However, she did not retire from acting and continued to make a living appearing in a number of films such as, "For Better of Worse" (1995) and "Enemies of Laughter" (2000). She also appeared on a "Golden Girls" reunion special on the Lifetime Channel.
She married twice, first briefly to a man by the name of Robert Alan Arthur and then that marriage came to an end and her second marriage was to Gene Saks from May 28th, 1950 through June 27th, 1980 after they had two sons, Matthew and Daniel.
Bea Arthur was inducted in to the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences Hall of Fame and also won an award of achievement from Emerson College's Musical Theater Society in Boston in 2000. On April 24th, Arthur passed away from cancer in her home and was survived by her two sons and her two grandchildren. Her body was cremated and her ashes were scattered.

Singletary rumored for defensive coordinator job
January 20, 2005 12:03 PM ET
The News
New *****' head coach Mike Nolan is rumored to be interested in hiring Mike Singletary to serve as the team's defensive coordinator. Nolan and Singletary worked together while serving under Ravens' head coach Brian Billick. Nolan still intends to meet with the remaining members of former head coach Dennis Erickson's staff to determine which, if any, will remain with the team.
Our View
Nolan is leading the charge to find a new general manager, as well fill the vacant offensive and defensive coordinator positions. The rumored candidates for the general manager position are former Titans' executive Jeff Diamond, Ravens' general manager Ozzie Newsome, and former *****' offensive lineman Randy Cross. No serious candidates have been mentioned for the offensive coordinator job.

Re: Singletary rumored for defensive coordinator job
I do like Ozzie Newsome, but he should have been hired in Cleveland. Jeff Diamond would be a good hire. Taking Randy Cross would be equivalent to Matt Millen in Detroit and that has been all that rosy.
Singletary is definitely an interesting pick and I think it would be cool to see him in that position. He's coached some beasts in Baltimore linebackers.DJRamFan

Coverage of Virginia politics and the 2014 election.
Primary updates
9:17: Chopra's statement on Northam's victory in the lieutenant governor race:
"I want to congratulate Senator Ralph Northam on his victory tonight in the Democratic Primary. Senator Northam and his staff should be proud of their campaign. While this was not the result that we hoped for tonight — I look forward to coming together to ensure the Democratic ticket wins a clean sweep in November. The work to bring fairness, equality, and opportunity to Virginia continues."
9:05: Howell just issued a statement on the May/Sherwood losses:
Speaker Howell just issued a statement:
Virginia House of Delegates Speaker William J. Howell (R-Stafford) released the following statement on the results of the 29th and 33rd District primaries:
"For the last 20 years, Joe May and Beverly Sherwood have been a valued public servants, effective legislators and true leaders who have tirelessly served the people of their districts and the Commonwealth with integrity and dedication.
"They have worked for their constituents on key issues like economic development, transportation, education, agriculture and public safety. Joe and Bev have both been friends to me for the last 20 years. Like many others, I have seen first-hand how their expertise and knowledge on these issues have helped move the Commonwealth forward.
"On behalf of the entire House of Delegates, I would like to thank Joe and Beverly for their service to the people of Virginia and wish him them the very best in their future endeavors.
"David LaRock and Mark Berg have won the support of the Republican voters in their districts. Let me be the first to congratulate David and Mark on their victories. We look forward to their elections in November and know that they will be valuable members of the House of Delegates."
9: Sen. Ralph Northam wins the Democratic lieutenant governor's race; rival Aneesh Chopra just congratulated him via Twitter on his victory: "Congratulations to Senator @RalphNortham on his victory tonight. I'm looking forward to working together to win in November"
Also, two incumbent House delegates from other districts — Del. Joe May of Loudoun and Del. Beverly Sherwood of Winchester — have lost their House races to challengers. In both races, the challenger made an issue of the incumbents' support for the transportation reform bill.
8:48: The SBE, in a press release, officially acknowledged technical problems. Apparently they've got the data, the problems are getting it online. In the meantime, while VPAP isn't up either, they're at least tweeting out some updates from SBE numbers.
Thus, the latest from the VPAP Twitter feed in the two statewide Democratic races:
In the attorney general race: SBE reporting with 90.6 % precincts reporting, Herring 51.5%, Fairfax 48.5%
In the lieutenant governor race: SBE reporting with 90.8 % precincts reporting, Northam 54%, Chopra 46%
8:37: According to VPAP's Twitter feed (@vpapupdates), with 83% percent of vote in, AG race appears to be narrowing. Herring 51% Fairfax 49%. In the LG race, Northam's lead has widened slightly – 53.55 % of vote vs. Chopra 46.45.
8:32: While SBE and VPAP are both now officially broken (VPAP says it's adding bandwidth and to stop hitting refresh please), the AP has officially called the 28th House Race for Speaker Bill Howell. As noted below, he had better than 90 percent of the vote in the last numbers we saw.
8:13: The State Board of Elections' website doesn't seem to be updating as it should be, so we're getting numbers from VPAP, which now seems to be hitting the overload point on its servers.
But, as of the last time I was able to see numbers a few minutes ago, Northam was leading Chopra, 52% to 48% with 58 percent of precincts reporting.
In the attorney general race, Herring was leading Fairfax, 52% to 48%, with 68% of precincts reporting.
In the 54th House race, with 75 percent of the vote in, Orrock was at 55% to Curtis' 45%.
In the 28th House race, with 19 out of 23 percents (83 percent), Howell had 92 percent of the vote to Ennis' 8 percent. I'm not authorized to call a race or anything but I think you can draw your own conclusions on that one.
7:52: With 52 percent of precincts reporting, House Speaker Bill Howell, R-Stafford, is leading with 92.5 percent of the vote to Craig Ennis' 7.5 percent.
In the 54th House district, things look closer for now. With 25 percent of the precincts reporting, Del. Bobby Orrock has 53 percent to Dustin Curtis' 47 percent.
7:43: Not many numbers yet. Vpap.org has some, currently showing Ralph Northam slightly ahead of Aneesh Chopra in the Democratic lieutenant governor's race. (51 percent to 49 percent with 30 percent of results in). Vpap is also showing Mark Herring a bit ahead of Justin Fairfax in the Democratic attorney general's race (53 percent to 47 percent).
7:20: Polls for today's Democratic and Republican primaries closed about 20 minutes ago. We'll post updates here as the numbers come in, both for the two Democratic statewide races (attorney general and lieutenant governor) and the two House Republican nomination races in the Fredericksburg area (Speaker Bill Howell vs. Craig Ennis, and Del. Bobby Orrock vs. Dustin Curtis).
The State Board of Elections also posts real-time updates at sbe.state.va.us, as will vpap.org.

In an effort to provide more sustainable and efficient transportation options, Portland, Ore.-based TriMet and Zipcar Inc. created a new joint program that will add Zipcars at three TriMet Park and Ride locations along the Blue, Green, and Red lines, making it easier for people to live and work car-free in the region.A total of six Zipcars will offer riders a new option to complete the "last mile" of their trip through this convenient car sharing program. The addition of Zipcars along TriMet MAX Lines makes the service more accessible to the existing car-sharing community and encourages the use of public transportation by providing cost effective and convenient travel options for transit riders, according to TriMet.TriMet joins transportation organizations across the U.S. that work with Zipcar to bridge the "last mile" of transit trips. These organizations include, San Francisco's Bay Area Rapid Transit District, Chicago Transit Authority, King County Metro Transit in Seattle, Boston's Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority, New Jersey Transit, New York's Metropolitan Transit Authority, and Washington Area Metro Transit Authority.

Using the Viterbi Algorithm for Error Correction in an Autocorrelation-Based Pitch Detector
Abstract - An autocorrelation based method for detecting the fundamental pitch of an audio signal is presented in which the Viterbi algorithm is used in the error correction portion of the detector. The Viterbi algorithm is used to locate the maximum likely pitch path through the audio file. This method is compared to a typical heuristic and median filtering based error correction approach that has been historically used when detecting pitch through the use of autocorrelation. The Viterbi algorithm results are significantly better than the typical error correction methods for choosing the best and most plausible path through the pitch estimates.

How to Finally Stop Emotional Eating
If you've ever had the urge to eat your feelings, well, you're just like the rest of us. No matter your emotional trigger, here's how to cope with both better food choices, and by getting to the heart of the problem.
By Holly Corbett
The eating alternative
While you may be tempted to complain to a pal to let off steam, research shows that venting can sometimes make you dwell more, not less. A better strategy is to find a release. "Distract yourself with another activity to get your mind off whats bothering you, such as taking a jog to work off some adrenaline," says Dr. Albers. If you have some sitting around, popping bubble wrap can be a surprisingly cathartic quick-fix.

Easy-to-miss radar boxes give police heads up on where speeders have been
A Speed Sentry box records the speed of vehicles on Kelley Street in Manchester. The boxes are 18 inches square and are bolted to the metal posts of stop signs. (DAVID LANE/UNION LEADER)
Since 2007, Manchester has been deploying two radar devices called Speed Sentry that count vehicles and record their speeds as they pass by.
About the size of a case of beer, the devices are easy for drivers to miss, but Speed Sentry won't miss any vehicle within about 500 yards of its location. And unlike speed board trailers, which flash a vehicle's speed in an obvious effort to alert the driver, each 18-inch-square, 12-inch-deep Speed Sentry box is mounted on the metal post beneath a stop sign.
Here's how the process works: Police receive calls, letters or emails from residents complaining about speeders along their street. Police mount a Speed Sentry on a stop-sign post in the area. Data is collected over a few days, downloaded, and fed into a program at police headquarters.
Instead of a police officer waiting all day to write seven tickets, police can use the radar information to patrol for two hours and write the same number of tickets, Tessier said.
Each Speed Sentry device costs about $4,000. Manchester's were purchased in 2007 by then-Lt. (now Capt.) Jon Hopkins of the Traffic Division.
Tessier said the units can flash like a speed board, if desired. "There's also a stealth mode," she said. "That's when the lights are turned off, and it just records data on number of cars and how fast they are going. When the speed is being shown, people have a tendency to slow down as they approach it. When it's off, you get a more accurate picture of how traffic is moving through the area."
"We'll get requests from the Traffic Division asking us to set one up," said Tessier. "Again, if there's already a stop sign there, it doesn't record who is going through the sign, just whether anyone is (not stopping) based on the speed of the vehicle. It's just collecting data."
"Because of the range they have, they can monitor speed of cars a good distance away," said Tessier. "If they are on a stop sign, we might not be watching how well the sign works. It might just have been the easiest spot to set one of them up."
"One area was South Mammoth Road," said Lt. Jim Flanagan of the Traffic Division. "We received complaints of people speeding along that area, set up the Sentry boxes, and when we looked at the numbers decided to allocate resources, when available, to that location for enforcement. We took a similar approach after data was collected along River Road."
Flanagan said he couldn't directly attribute speeding fines or traffic violations issued in an area to the fact that a Sentry box had been set up there prior to conducting enforcement activities.
"We don't assess or follow up with how many tickets were generated because sometimes just the presence of a cruiser and officer in an area is enough to get people to slow down," said Flanagan. "That's a success, without a fine being issued."
"We only have one right now, but we're looking to purchase two more," said Nashua police Capt. Bruce Hansen of that city's Traffic Division. "We set it up for three or four days at a time. If drivers can see their speed, your data can be skewed. Sometimes they speed up just to see how high they can get the numbers to go. One time, a kid stopped to throw a baseball near our speed board to see how fast he could throw it."
StealthStat information has been useful, Hansen said.
"West Hollis Street was one area that generated some staff time," said Hansen. "We looked at times in the day with the highest number of cars, then put an officer in place."
"They are used for counting cars and measuring speed only," said Concord Lt. Tim O'Malley. "They don't collect data on the drivers, the makes and models of the vehicles, or anything else."
"It utilizes two tubes that stretch across the road," said Londonderry police Lt. Tim Jones. "The tubes attach to a box that is usually chained to a telephone pole, and when cars pass over, it records the numbers and speed of passage. We can use the data to see if the area is in need of traffic enforcement. We generally only use it when we receive a complaint about speeding. We don't put the device out too often because of the wear and tear on the hoses."
New Hampshire isn't the only state using stealth radar boxes. Calls to police barracks in Burlington, Vt., Portland, Maine, and Framingham, Mass., confirmed they are deployed in those states, along with North Haven, Conn. Annual department reports posted online show they are also used in Ohio, North Carolina and Arizona.

Mozambique is a gorgeous tropical paradise of a country. The coastline is long, and palm-fringed beaches define lovely bays sheltering colourful coral reefs. But like any paradise - there's the odd rotten apple and even a serpent or two. A hideous twenty-year war when the country was used as a pawn between the superpowers, and neighbouring countries, was followed by devastating cyclones and floods. Mozambique still has a way to go but it's bouncing back. If there was an Oscar ceremony for countries, Mozambique would win the award for resilience and grace under pressure.
The beautiful beaches are fully operational, there are dive operators almost everywhere the reefs are easily accessible, and accommodation options range from backpackers and camping sites to five star extravaganzas. Most of the towns and cities are picking up slowly and there is a certain shabby chic touch to un-maintained art deco buildings decaying in style. The streets are lined with flowering trees and vibrant markets and small businesses. The main reasons most people visit Mozambique, though are to dive, fish, sun tan or indulge in yummy seafood. Mozambique is renowned for its succulent swimming prawns - although by the time most people see them they're swimming in peri-peri sauce. (In case you're wondering, swimming prawns are distinct from those rather squooshy things that hide out in the mud - and they taste muucch better.)
Ponta do Ouro and Ponta Malongane, together just called Ponta and just across the border from South Africa, are very popular diving, fishing and surfing resorts. In the 1970s Maputo was they playground of southern Africa - balmy nights, Portuguese wine, prawns by the bucketful and wild Latin-African rhythms made this a party destination of note. It's coming - with a bit more style and a lot more relaxed dress code.
In Maputo Bay is Inhaca Island - a little tropical paradise all of its own. Mangrove forests, lovely beaches, a good hotel, great diving and snorkelling, a small low key marine museum and a small village give it a special holiday air. There are good beach destinations all up the coast, but the more popular areas include the area around Inhambane, the Bazaruto Archipelago and, in the last few years, the far north, near Pemba.
You can drive into Mozambique from South Africa and the roads, while not exactly pristine, are passable in a two-wheel drive vehicle. The bus service is adequate but only for relatively adventurous travellers. There are international airports at Maputo, Inhambane, Vilankulos (near the Bazaruto Archipelago) and Pemba.
Note: If you are planning to travel to Mozambique please be aware that this region is malarial. Consult your doctor or travel clinic for advice and refer to our article on malaria.
Bilene - Bilene is a beautiful venue where one goes to unwind and enjoy the scenery and markets. Of course not forgetting the fantastic food and local drinks.
The only down site was getting stuck in traffic heading north for almost 3 hrs, we almost turned back home.
Great holiday - Ponta Malongane is awesome. A quieter and smaller town than Ponta do Ouro but the people are super friendly and there are some fantastic restaurants and bars there. Definitely worth a trip.
Ram - Excellent place to visit. Very relaxing. I got there with a 4X4 Renualt Duster without a hassle. Very safe and the people are friendly.It would have been nice if there was just a boat ride to sea without going diving,snorkelling,fishing or dolphin watching.
A rough place to be - Matola is small but too busy. You have to be an extremely good driver to navigate if you are driving through. The police are always on the look out for foreign plate numbers cos they konw they will extort you. The people and cars on the road are more than the town itself and if you must park your car, tell one of the guys around to watch it for you else your side mirrors will be gone before you return.
Beautiful and charming - This place is amazing.

Atheros Releases HAL Code for WiFi Chips
The U.S. chip producer Atheros has decided to forward the development of Linux drivers for the 802.11a/b/g-WLAN chip by making the Hardware Abstraction Layer code (HAL), available under an open source license.
The source can be found as tarball under the ISC License, on the kernel homepage, announced Louis R. Rodriguez of Atheros on the kernel and ath5K mailing lists.
Atheros wants to work with the Linux community to provide the best possible free drivers for its chips, continues Rodriguez in his E-mail.
An article in the Madwifi–Wiki explains why the proprietary HAL layer has until now, made life difficult for developers of free drivers.

As the recession has crushed the retail market in the past few years, stores have been pushing the holiday shopping season earlier and earlier in an attempt to stay in the black. (The term Black Friday is based on the fact that stores used to count on the day after Thanksgiving to get them out of the red for the year and into the black, making a profit.) In New York City, the 34th Street Macy's had its display windows decked out for Christmas before Halloween, and giant holiday ads have been up for weeks in Times Square.
Thanksgiving has almost been swallowed whole by the Christmas Money-Generating Machine, but it's more important than ever to take it back. As the country muddles through a difficult economic time, focusing on a holiday that transcends religious difference and is about being thankful can only be a good thing. Thanksgiving is about gratefulness for what we already have, whereas Christmas, as wonderful as it can be, has also become about anticipating what we will receive.

Wet, soggy spring hurts Colorado hay harvest
ILIFF, Colo. (AP)--Colorado's wet spring has helped some farmers, but it's leaving Eastern Plains hay farmers with a soggy mess.
Farmers say plentiful rain this spring has helped most crops, including grass hay and alfalfa used to feed horses and cattle. But after the hay is cut, too much rain can prevent it from properly drying out.
In northeastern Colorado, farmer Don Leonard calls the wet spring an "economic disaster'' for him.
"I've been at this for 35 years, and this is about as tough as it's been for me,'' he told The Denver Post.
In the past 30 days, the precipitation levels for northeastern Colorado were mostly between 5 and 8 inches, according to the National Weather Service. In June 2008, precipitation levels for the same region were mostly between .5 and 2 inches.
Leonard, also the treasurer of the Colorado Hay and Forage Association, says the hay on the ground has been there for 28 days without drying. Last summer, his hay was on the ground for five days before it was baled and ready for sale.
Leonard predicts he'll produce about 4,000 tons of hay from his first cutting but that it won't be up to par. Last year, he said, the first cutting yielded 5,000 tons of good-quality hay.
"We have expectations that conditions will get better, and we have hope that the price will remain the same as last year,'' he said.
Jodie Pitcock, market reporting supervisor for the U.S. Department of Agriculture's marketing service, says there has been little "supreme'' and "premium'' quality hay this month, instead being in three lower categories.
The hay downturn will mean less good feed for ranchers and horse owners in Colorado.
Lance Shockley, a horse trainer who owns a farm in Loveland, told the newspaper that said that after the first cutting, he needs about five to seven days of dry weather in order to bale it up and sell it.
"At this point, there's not very much alfalfa for people to be purchasing,'' he said.
Recent hail storms in northeast Colorado have been especially bad for alfalfa because the hail strips the leaves off it.
John Stulp, commissioner of agriculture for Colorado, said the effects of the rain depend on what stage farmers are in during the hay-farming process.
He said he has not seen any significant drop in prices so far, but if the rain keeps coming, that might change.
"If you have hay that's been weather-damaged and the color isn't good, then you can see the price drop half of what it's worth,'' he said.

I'm very pleased with this gift. It could not have been any better. My new favorite necklace and bracelets. Thank you so much. I don't know if I should drink the mead or save it... I love how personal it is and I'm extremely happy. Perfect start of my day to get this, I'm so fucking happy. There was also a letter attached explaining what everything is and whatnot. I love how personal everything is, I truly do.
I chuckled at the box of disappointment and regret. Note to self: read notes before opening gifts.
i probably would have opened it too. but that is a bad ass little gift. I have a few gfs who needs some hopes and dreams. Ill keep this in mind.
I wouldn't be able to resist opening it either. Even if the note said it contained live bees I would still open it.
