Lawyer of the victim, Manish Vyas, claimed that the threat was issued to a friend of the victim's father asking him to withdraw the statements of her daughter against Asaram.
Blindly following Asaram was 'big mistake': victim's father
Referring to an audio clip, Vyas said the girl and her family continue to receive threats from Asaram's followers.

I went Saturday to the Rose Bowl for the end of leg 8 of the Tour of California.
I found most of the cyclists to be very social, or willing to talk about the race, to answer questions, to ask questions.
I tend to talk to everyone.
If I find one that doesn't respond, or doesn't say anything, I just move on to the next, and talk to them.
I am also a motorcyclist. And again, whenever I stop I talk to everyone, particularly the other bikers, and again, most talk, and if they don't I just move on to someone else.
Sure some are anti social, or can't or don't talk, or maybe are having a bad day or moment and have nothing to say, so I move on.
Mostly I mean around California. But other places too. Particularly in small towns. I guess in small towns they don't get to talk to so many people, so when someone does come through, they like to ask, where you from, where you going, etc.

President Barack Obama has officially named former Washington, D.C. tech chief Vivek Kundra as the federal government's Chief Information Officer.
President Barack Obama has officially named former Washington, D.C. tech chief Vivek Kundra as the federal government's CIO.
Kundra, who previously served as the CTO for D.C.'s city government, has received a good deal of acclaim for his work in making that government act more transparently and economically. Among other things, Kundra has slashed the city's IT costs by shifting government e-mail and work applications over to Google Apps and has pushed for more transparency by posting lists on the Web of jobs that government contractors have been hired to perform.
As the federal government's CIO, Kundra will oversee a $71 billion information technology budget and ensure IT interoperability between government departments. During a conference call this morning, Kundra said that he will be looking at how the government could both improve its technology investments and make more information accessible to citizens through the Internet.
Kundra said that when he took over as CTO of Washington, D.C., he was surprised at how technologically primitive public sector workplaces were compared to their private-sector counterparts.
"The public sector thought they were so special that they wouldn't adopt consumer technologies," said Kundra, who also noted that when he would connect his laptop to a local Starbucks Wi-Fi network then he "had more computing power in my hands at local coffee shop than average teacher or police officer."
To this end, Kundra said he will examine how private companies and NGOs make decisions about adopting new technologies and will try to apply those processes to government.
In terms of making more government information available to the public, Kundra said the government would soon launch a Web site called data.gov that would serve as a public data feed. Kundra's proposal for the federal data feed site echoes the Data Catalog website he helped establish for Washington, DC to provide the public with information on everything from crime statistics to construction projects to public space permits.
Kundra said that Ronald Reagan's directive to make Global Positioning System technical specifications public and the Human Genome Project's decision to publish the human DNA sequence in the Internet were examples of the benefits of making more government information available to the public.
"There is a lot of data that the federal government has and we need to make sure that all data that's not private and not necessary for national security is available on the Internet," he said.

I''l try to insert better gr. accelerator (not only 512kB). Any idea how to solve this? Does exist some person, who is runnig both RDT and VNC simultaneously at XP computers?

Off-brand tubular rims, then build my own. (racing only)
Bikes: Old steel race bikes, old Cannondale race bikes, less old Cannondale race bike, crappy old mtn bike
The bike count and components at the Kona Hawaii Ironman says Zipp wheels. But that's for triathletes who have reached the world championship. Not all are professionals who might get theirs free as sponsorship. The rest of them might be just like all of us, more or less. Follow the leader.
I have a pair of November Rails on order that should be arriving in a couple weeks.
Farsports FSC50-CA as everyday clinchers (50MM, alloy braking, ~1,500g, Novatec hubs). I don't weigh very much so I'm easy on wheels but these have been rock solid for thousands of miles. Comfortable too.
'97 Trek 830, '06 Scott Scale 70, '06 Cervelo Soloist,
'07 Cervelo R3, '13 Cervelo S2
Reynolds assault clinchers.
1. Hand built carbon race wheels, 1270grams
2. Hand built aluminium "climbing wheels", 1050 grams
3. Fulcrum racing 4's, heavy, go anywhere wheels.
Handbuilt Enve Smart System.
Some sort of pithy irrelevant one-liner should go here.
Old Zipp 404s and old Reynolds DV46. Got them lightly used and quite affordable - $500 for the Zipps with tubulars and cassette, $600 for the Reynolds with nearly new tires mounted, three brand new tubulars and new Reynolds brake pads.

Williams System 38's. My first significant upgrade to any bike I've ever owned. Very happy with them.
I've got Zipp 404s. But if I were buying new today, I would probably get Enve's.
You're just trying to start an argument to show how smart you are.
I am actually still using a set of Rolf Vector Pro wheels from 2002. Very durable and I would purchase a new set of Rolf wheels from their Oregon location.

As the current debt malaise continues to plague the markets, investors have renewed their interest to gold. Flocking to funds like the ETFS Physical Swiss Gold Shares (NYSE:SGOL), the precious metal has seen its price skyrocket to over $1,600 an ounce. With gold continuing to barrel higher and predictions of $2,000 gold once again hitting the newswires, investors looking for value may want to consider gold's "poor man's twin". The white metal is currently about 40 times cheaper than gold, but some high-profile analysts think that could change over the next year. (To learn more about gold and silver, check out Trading Gold And Silver Futures Contracts.)
TUTORIAL: Commodities
Long-Term Upside
Doubling as both a precious and industrial metal, silver could be a great buy over the next year. Benefiting from the one-two punch of investors looking for safe-haven hard assets and climbing industrial demand, silver prices rallied to a record high in the first half of the year. Nonetheless, due to increased COMEX margin requirements for futures traders, silver has dropped about 20% from its high, even as gold continues to hit its record levels. Despite this, the bullish demand trends for silver remain in place. According to metals research group GFMS, worldwide silver demand for investment purposes climbed nearly 40% in 2010. Industrial demand rose 20% to nearly 488 million ounces. Estimations by the Silver Institute highlight the bullish trend for silver demand. The group predicts that rising industrial demand from emerging markets will be 666 million ounces by 2015.
These long-term bullish demand numbers have some analysts hiking their price targets for silver to unheard-of highs. According to technical analysis done by analysts at Citigroup (NYSE:C), the silver market is following similar patterns as it did between 1971 and 1980. Following this pattern, they predict silver could hit $100 an ounce over the next year or so.
'Investment of the Decade'
Famed Canadian fund manager and hard asset fan, Eric Sprott, still believes in the metal. Recently he told the Gold Report that silver will be the "investment of the decade". Sprott believes that silver prices will climb back up to the historic average gold/silver ratio of 16:1. Over the next five years, Sprott predicts a $2,500 an ounce price for gold corresponding to a $160 price for silver. Overall, Sprott expects silver prices to rise above $50 per ounce by the end of 2011.
Silver is also benefiting from other attributes. For one, its affordability. With gold rising higher and higher, silver remains a cheap option for smaller investors looking for hard-asset exposure. Silver also benefits from its industrial factor. The majority of silver used in these applications is consumed and destroyed, removing it from the supply. (For more on the gold/silver ratio, read Trading The Gold-Silver Ratio.)
Playing the Silver Bull
For investors, the recent pullback in silver prices can be used to add the metal to a portfolio. The iShares Silver Trust (NYSE:SLV) and ETFS Physical Silver Shares (NYSE:SIVR) are the easiest ways for investors to track silver prices. These ETFs represent a ounce of the metal. Longer-term holders may want to consider the SIVR as it offers investors a cheaper expense ratio at 0.3%. For those wishing to place their bets with Eric Sprott, the Sprott Physical Silver Trust (Nasdaq:PSLV) offers a physically backed trust managed by the superstar.
For investors seeking potentially more leverage from their silver investment, the companies that mine the metal will continue to do well in the face of higher prices. Both Pan American Silver (Nasdaq:PAAS) and Silver Standard Resources (Nasdaq:SSRI) remain well below their respective 52-week highs and trade for reasonable P/Es. For investors looking for a catchall miner play on silver, the Global X Silver Miners ETF (NYSE:SIL) tracks 25 different miners including Hecla Mining (NYSE:HL) and Coeur d`Alene Mines (NYSE:CDE). The fund has become immensely popular with investors in its short lifespan.
Bottom Line
With the continued flight to quality and hard assets in the face of currency debasement and debt issues, silver will sparkle. With both investment and industrial demand at its back, several top commodities analysts predict much higher prices in the near future. For investors, adding a fund like the PowerShares DB Silver (NYSE:DBS) or a miner play like Endeavour Silver (NYSE:EXK) could do your portfolio some wonder.

East Bay's Best Breakfast Places
Road Journals Blog—As a natural-born night owl, I would gladly skip mornings entirely — except that would mean missing out on my favorite meal. When it comes to breakfast, these four East Bay spots are guaranteed to get this grump out of bed and smiling in no time. Area code is 510.
Chop Bar
Wooden picnic tables and a metal rollup door make this indoor-outdoor space in Oakland's warehouse district the perfect spot for warm summer mornings. Flavorful chilaquiles and chile verde with free range pork spice up the menu, while Bloody Marys served with a bacon swizzle stick are a meal unto themselves. 247 4th St., Oakland, 834-2467, oaklandchopbar.com.
900 Grayson
Leave your calorie counter at the door of this cheery corner eatery and dig into their signature "Demon Lover" breakfast: buttermilk-fried chicken and waffles served with cream gravy or Vermont maple syrup . . . or both. Is it tastier than their wildly popular bacon burger? Come for Saturday brunch and find out. 900 Grayson St., Berkeley, 704-9900, 900grayson.com.
Tomate Cafe
Tucked into a West Berkeley side street, this casual café often hosts live music on its sunny, dog-friendly patio. Berry-topped French toast is a favorite, as is the Harvest Breakfast—two eggs, sausage or bacon, fried apples, and savory zucchini cheese cake. 2265 5th St., Berkeley, 549-9885, tomatecafe.com.
Venus Restaurant
Seasonal, organic, and sustainable are the buzzwords at this downtown Berkeley café known for fluffy lemon-ricotta hotcakes, the vegan-friendly Harajuku Scramble, and the Venus Benedict (add avocado for an extra creamy treat). 2327 Shattuck Ave., Berkeley, 540-5950, venusrestaurant.net.
What's your favorite breakfast spot in the East Bay?
This blog post was first published in July 2012. Some facts may have aged gracelessly. Please call ahead to verify information.
I have been trying to find a good breakfast place in Walnut Creek, Lafayette, or Orinda, especially weekends. So far I have been disappointed. Surely there is a place I have not yet discovered. Outside of Chows and Millie's I have not been impressed.
HI, I'm the Web editor. We only covered a few areas, but I'd love to hear what you think are the best places to eat in those areas.
Why are only Oakland and Berkeley shown as "East Bay?" Where are Danville, San Ramon, Walnut Creek, etc. Best Breakfasts listed?
Concur that Brown Sugar Kitchen should be on the list, as should Mama's Royal Cafe in Oakland.
Also Otaez Mexican restaurant in Alameda, which serves tasty bargain breakfasts daily, with a marvelous buffet brunch on Sunday. Add The Ranch in Hayward, which offers a ham and three egg special daily before noon M-Sa for $5.95. Or Pier 29 at Ballena Bay in Alameda with a $5.95 weekday early-bird eggs benedict special M–F.
Cafe M should be a must on this list!
How is Bette's Oceanview Diner not on this list?
How is Brown Sugar Kitchen not in this list?
I did not like having to come here to finish reading the articles referenced in Via.
While everyone is lining the entire block of 4th Street for Bette's Oceanview Diner, my girlfriend and I sneak into Cafe M and enjoy an even more delicious brunch--filled with corned beef hash and fennel sausage scramble. Less crowds, more room to relax, and lightning fast service.

Baby, Let's Play House: Elvis Presley and the Women Who Loved Him by Alanna Nash
Source: Alanna Nash
October 1, 2009 - 8:31:39 AM
Elvis Book News, Elvis News
As we first reported in August 2008, Alanna Nash is working on a new book titled, 'Baby, Let's Play House - Elvis Presley and the Women Who Loved Him'. Today, we have received the cover-art for this massive 658 page hardcover book which is due for release January 5, 2010. Hardcover; 6" x 9"; Pages: 658; 70 photos.
In August 2007, Alanna Nash interviewed a number of Elvis' female co-stars, family members, and friends for a Ladies Home Journal article titled 'The Women Who Loved Elvis'. Now she's turning the idea into a book for It Books, to be published in time for Elvis' 75th birthday in January 2010. Nash reports the book will be the first comprehensive look at Elvis purely from the female prospective. 'For all his maleness, Elvis was a very woman-centered man, because of his closeness with his mother', she says. 'It was women he could really talk with, and from whom he drew much of his strength. The book will look at a number of his relationships, both platonic and romantic. And part of it will consider how his status as one of the greatest sex symbols of the 20th century informed his stage act and his interactions with the opposite sex'.
By far the best study of Elvis Presley I have read. 'The King' emerges more clearly from this mosaic of his troubled love life than from any linear biography to date ... Impressively researched, written - and felt'. - Philip Norman, New York Times bestselling author of John Lennon and Shout!
Thirty-two years after his death, Elvis' extraordinary physical appeal, timeless music, and sexual flamboyance continue to fascinate, titillate, and excite. Though hundreds of books have been written about The King - one of the premier sex symbols of the '50s and the prototype, in all his sex-and-drugs excess, for all the rock idols who came after him - no book has solely explored his relationships with women and how they informed
his art and life. 'Baby, Let's Play House', named after the 1955 song that was his first to hit the national charts and his mother's favorite Elvis recording, does just that.
Based on exclusive interviews with the many women who knew him in various roles - lover, sweetheart, friend, co-star, and family member - veteran music writer Alanna Nash's fascinating new book explores Presley's love affairs with, among others, Ann-Margret, Linda Thompson, Sheila Ryan Caan, June Juanico, Barbara Leigh, Joyce Bova, and Cybill Shepherd, as well as his friendships with actresses Raquel Welch, Barbara Eden, Mary Ann Mobley, Yvonne Craig, and Celeste Yarnall. The book also spotlights important early girlfriends (Regis Wilson, Carolyn Bradshaw, Wanda Jackson, and Barbara Hearn) and the women who dared turn him down (Cher, Petula Clark, Karen Carpenter, and Tanya Tucker).
In 'Baby, Let's Play House', Alanna Nash: Alanna Nash presents Elvis in a new light: a charming but wounded Lothario who bedded scores of women but seemed unable to maintain a lasting romantic and sexual relationship. His problems, rooted first in the death, at birth, of his twin brother and his unhealthily close relationship with his mother, and later in his reliance on prescription drugs, drove him to channel much of his emotional and sexual energy into his performances which defined the erotic dreams of his generation. While fully exploring the most famous romantic idol of the twentieth century, 'Baby, Let's Play House' pulls back the covers on what Elvis really wanted in a woman, and was tragically never able to find.
In 'Baby, Let's Play House', Alanna Nash: Offers the most comprehensive female viewpoint of the life and career of Elvis Presley, through interviews with Elvis' girlfriends, lovers, and co-stars, as well as female family members, record company executives, and platonic friends. Examines how both the death of Elvis' twin, and the extremely close bond he shared with his mother, set him up for remarkably close, yet ultimately doomed relationships with women. Presents, in a bombshell of reporting, never-before-published legal information about Priscilla Presley's lawsuit against Currie Grant, the man who introduced her to Elvis. Grant challenged the fairytale myth Priscilla cultivated; he has claimed that Priscilla (at fourteen) set out to meet, bed, and marry Elvis, and he dispels the myth of Priscilla as the virgin bride. His claims were met with Priscilla's allegations that Grant tried to force himself on her. Nash examines both sides of the story and the subsequent legal settlement. Dispels a number of myths, including the story that Elvis would never been intimate with a woman who had born a child. Includes recently discovered letters from the 1938 prison file of Vernon Presley, Elvis' father, including one from Gladys Presley, who pleads for Vernon's early release ('I have a little boy three years old. Please send [my husband] home to his wife and baby'.) Examines the two categories into which Elvis separated his women: the girls at home (virginal innocents to be protected and molded into his ideal of young womanhood), and the girls on the road (sexually eager fans, showgirls, and strippers).
With 70 photographs, many of which have never before been seen by the public, 'Baby, Let's Play House' is a stunning, intimate look into the hidden thrills, fears and needs of the most iconic performer in rock n' roll.

Tupelo's Own Elvis Presley DVD
Tupelo's Own Elvis Presley DVD + 16 page booklet.
Never before have we seen an Elvis Presley concert from the 1950's with sound. Until Now! The DVD Contains recently discovered unreleased film of Elvis performing 6 songs, including Heartbreak Hotel and Don't Be Cruel, live in Tupelo Mississippi 1956. Included we see a live performance of the elusive Long Tall Sally seen here for the first time ever.
This is an excellent release no fan should be without it.
The 'parade' footage is good to see as it puts you in the right context with color and b&w footage. The interviews of Elvis' Parents are well worth hearing too. The afternoon show footage is wonderful and electrifying : Here is Elvis in his prime rocking and rolling in front of 11.000 people. Highly recommended.

After playing 31 of their first 37 games away from home, including the last 14 straight, the 14th-ranked Golden Bears return to Levine-Fricke Field this week for three doubleheaders. In fact, 14 of Cal's next 18 games are scheduled to be played in Berkeley, where the team is 6-0 this season. The Bears begin the week with their final non-conference home games of the year when they host St. Mary's. Cal last faced the Gaels early in the 1997 season and swept a doubleheader, 3-0 and 8-0. The Bears own a 25-0 series lead. Cal then returns to Pac-10 action when the Bears host No. 13 Oregon and No. 12 Oregon State over the weekend. The Ducks took two from the Beavers (6-5, 1-0) last week. Oregon comes in with a 29-10 record (4-2 Pac-10), while OSU, which visits Stanford Saturday, is 27-12 (2-4).
Head Coach Diane Ninemire
Diane Ninemire, the winningest softball coach in Golden Bear history, is in her 11th year as head coach at Cal with a school and career record of 471-261. The 1991 Pac-10 Coach of the Year, she has led Cal to 10 NCAA Tournament berths and a pair of College World Series appearances (1992, '96). Ninemire is assisted by John Reeves, who is in his sixth season, and Teri Johnson, who is in her first.
Bears Break Through, Win First Pac-10 Game over Stanford
The Cal softball team had to be wondering if it could win a Pac-10 game this year. The Bears lost their first three games to a pair of Top 5 teams (UCLA, Washington) by a total of four runs, including one game that went eight innings. Then they fell in their doubleheader opener at No. 9 Stanford last Saturday, 5-0. Finally, Cal broke through with a 4-3 victory over the Cardinal in the nightcap. Senior C Megumi Takasaki and senior DP Holly Yost had two RBI each in the win to back the pitching of freshman Jocelyn Forest.
Bowie Goes from Basketball to Softball with Little Trouble
Sophomore left fielder Paige Bowie missed the first 19 games of the softball season while completing her commitment to the Cal women's basketball team. She joined the softball squad one day after the basketball season ended, flying down to meet her softball teammates for a doubleheader at Cal Poly March 7. And after leading the basketball squad in scoring with 11.9 ppg, Bowie has taken over the top spot in softball with a .418 batting average (23-55) with two doubles and two triples. She has also moved into the leadoff spot in the order after hitting in the No. 6 position most of last year. As a freshman, Bowie was an honorable mention All-Pac-10 pick after batting .290 with two homers and 20 RBI.
Iancin Hits for Both Power and Average in '99
Junior 2B Lisa Iancin has been known as a strong hitter and steady fielder throughout her Cal career. She entered her junior season this spring with a career .316 average and completed the Pac-10 schedule last year without committing an error in the field. This season, she has added power to those numbers. Through 37 games, Iancin his batting .345 with a team-leading nine doubles, four home runs and 25 RBI - all career highs. She had 3 home runs all of last year and a total of 4 in her first two seasons with the Bears. Iancin's other previous bests were a .323 average in 1998, 7 doubles in '98 and 22 RBI in '97.
Bear Notes
Sophomore P Nicole DiSalvio has already tossed two no-hitters (vs. San Jose State Feb. 3 and vs. Georgia Feb. 14) and nearly had a third at Hawaii March 19 when she did not give up a base hit until there was one out in the seventh inning DiSalvio, OF Pauline Dueas, 2B Lisa Iancin and OF Paige Bowie were named to the all-tournament team at the Hawaii Invitational Cal has won two in-season tournaments this year - the National Invitational Softball Tournament in Sunnyvale and the Hawaii Invitational Sophomore OF Amber Phillips has picked up her power numbers this year with five triples and three home runs; last year, she did not hit a homer and had only one triple freshman P Jocelyn Forest is averaging 7.94 strikeouts per seven innings with 110 Ks in 97.0 innings pitched senior 1B Kirsten Drake (.404 BA, 2 HR, 11 RBI) has been out the last four weeks with a sprained knee, but could return to action this week Cal's three pitchers - DiSalvio, Forest and senior Holly Yost - have combined for a 1.14 team ERA and 18 shutouts and are limiting opponents to a .192 batting average Cal won 10 consecutive games from Feb. 28 through March 12 all eight teams in the Pac-10 that play softball are ranked in the nation's Top 14; Cal rankings by week in the NFCA/USA Today poll: preseason (unranked), March 3 (20), March 10 (16), March 17 (14), March 24 (13), March 31 (14) 3B Candace Harper is the only freshman to start in the field on a regular basis (31 starts) and she has responded by batting .330 with a homer and 13 RBI.

text: To clarify a few points about sudden reboots of Win2K and their apparent relation to WinVNC in some cases: WinVNC can be very CPU, network and display intensive. The consequences of this are that a problem in any one of these systems can cause seemingly unpredictable bluescreens or even sudden reboots. Problems with drivers will usually show up in the form of blue-screen errors, which suggests that the recently reported problems are not in drivers. However, ensuring that you have the latest drivers for your system and, where possible, that they are certified drivers for Win2K, is a good plan. As for sudden reboots without the normal bluescreen - this could be caused either by a faulty power supply (a very common cause), or by a motherboard previously damaged by a faulty power supply, or by the power supply being incapable of powering a machine with so many devices, or by the CPU overheating and the motherboard shutting it off, for example. Obviously, these are just examples but in my experience they're good things to check. Programs such as SiSoft's Sandra can often highlight subtle problems in systems. (I mention Sandra because I personally have used it and I would recommend it - this is not a formal endorsement and has nothing to do with AT&T Labs, AT&T, or the LCE!)

text: Sunday I was able to get my birthday ride in and rode my age. It was an incredible ride for January. There were no head winds, temperature in the 50s, and no traffic! I was able to spend a bit over 4 hours in solitude doing what I love best. Since I was given a digitial camera (for the express purpose of putting it in my jersey pocket) as a gift, I can share two pictures of the ride. The first is what most of the ride was like, flat..... the second is the hill I must climb after every ride to reach my home. It keeps going for about 1.5 miles and has points of about 20% grade. It makes you save a little at the end of each ride so you can get home. When I first started riding after decades of not riding, I couldn't ride this hill. I had to walk. Yesterday, I was able to scoot up the hill with two lower gears yet in reserve. Life it good.

Not long ago, the Social Security Administration (SSA) asked me to testify as part of a series of national forums concerning access to Social Security account information on the agency's Web site. While it was painted in the media as being one fraught with privacy concerns, like most problems, there is more than one side to this issue. Because I follow issues pertaining to access to government information, I often become involved in issues where access and privacy intersect and, often, clash. The publicity concerning access to personally-identifiable Social Security account information on the SSA's Web site is just one in a continuing line of access/privacy issues that need to be addressed as we work out the ground rules for electronic dissemination of sensitive personal or economic information.
The privacy perspective of the issue was laid out in the very balanced testimony of Marc Rotenberg, director of the Electronic Privacy Information Center in Washington, D.C., when he testified before the House Social Security Subcommittee on this issue. As Rotenberg noted, the privacy issues presented here cut in both directions. As a general rule, personal information should not be disclosed to third parties without prior consent. On the other hand, fair information practices include the individual's ability to have access to his or her own personal information for purposes of verifying its accuracy and completeness. Through this access mechanism, government agencies may be assured that information is accurate and up-to-date by receiving input from the person most likely to know.
Because the privacy dimensions of this debate have been so ably presented and discussed by Rotenberg and others, I want to look somewhat more carefully at the access implications. A bedrock principle of statutes covering access to government information is that a requester should be given access to records unless they fall within one or more specific exemptions.
Under access policies pursued by the Clinton administration, even in those instances where information may be withheld because it meets the definition for protection under a specific exemption, such information should still be disclosed as a matter of discretion unless the agency can articulate a foreseeable harm from disclosure. Of course, it is worth pointing out in the context of this specific incident that agencies have no discretion to disclose personal information that falls within the confines of Exemption 6 or 7(C) of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). Exemption 6 protects information whose disclosure would constitute "a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy," while Exemption 7(C) protects law enforcement information where disclosure would constitute "an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy."
In Dept. of Defense vs. FLRA, the Supreme Court made it clear that records falling under either of these categories would be exempt under the Privacy Act. That is because one of the Privacy Act's exceptions to the rule of prior consent is that disclosure is required under the FOIA. The disclosure of a record that falls within the confines of either privacy exemption of the FOIA would not be a required disclosure and, thus, would not be permitted under the law as it currently is interpreted.
While the Social Security Administration's program to allow access to an individual's personal account information is certainly not set up to be administered as if the agency is receiving individual FOIA or Privacy Act requests for the information, some of the same analytical exercises may be useful.
To access advocates like myself,
the disclosure of individual account information should not be restricted solely because of its electronic availability.
At the outset, it is important to be aware of the fear held by access advocates that somehow the technology of electronic access and dissemination will throw up obstacles to access that would not be present if the records were disseminated on paper. To access advocates like myself, the disclosure of individual

The theatrical bent, as well as the band's documentary (search the group's name on YouTube for a glimpse) and Shiver's excellent CD packaging, suggest a group that is very ambitious. Unfortunately, the actual music contained on the band's debut doesn't live up to the ambition. The main thrust of the band's sound — a mix of '90s Indie Rock, Punk and Smashing Pumpkins — is charming enough. There is some intriguing guitar riffage and skronk and the harmony and background vocals provide an interesting texture to the sound. But that sound is buried in a jumbled blur; much of the album sounds as if you are listening to the band play while crouched in the corner of their practice space. Dynamics are completely lost.
The standout tracks are the softer ones not weighed down by the hissing, tinny drums. "Water and Women (Reprise)" is an acoustic-based slice of Psychedelia, while opener "Deep Blue" sounds like the soundtrack to some'60s French art film.
But these tracks largely stand out because everything in the mix is audible. Mona Medusa is a good band that has been hindered by awful production. Hopefully, on the next disc, listeners will be able to actually hear all of what this promising band has to offer. (myspace.com/monamedusa)
More Local Notes
• Veteran local musician Bob Cushing recently celebrated 20 years of performing with a live retrospective of his songs (plus some choice covers) at the defunct Blue Note, the Price Hill club now known as Studio 8. The show — which included the stories behind the songs (a la VH1's Storytellers series) — was recorded and is now available as the two-disc set, Still Alive! Cushing is joined on the disc by Chris Goins, who Cushing credits with originally convincing him to play music. The official release show for the Cushing/Goins CD takes place Saturday at The Dog Haus in Delhi. (bobcushing.com)
• This Saturday at 7 p.m. marks the return of WoodyFest, an annual tribute to music legend Woody Guthrie put together by Cincinnati's own Woody, Jake Speed. This year, the Fest will take place at Delhi's College of Mount St. Joseph's Theatre and will also feature music from Americana trio The Tillers. Speed will play some of his favorite Woody tunes and read from Guthrie's non-musical writings. Tickets are $10 and the money raised will benefit the general scholarship fund at the college. (freddiesmusic.com)
• After a two-year hiatus, awesome Rock trio Blacklight Barbarian returns to the local club front this Wednesday for a show at the East End Café with Sliver Bridge Disaster. The band's Chris Owens says that following the group's break-up, the members searched for other projects but ultimately decided they had a good thing with Blacklight. The band will be doing local and regional shows and is hoping to start recording a new album by the end of the summer. (myspace.com/blacklightbarbarian)

I got Netflix last month to try out some shows that are new for me but are no longer on TV. So I found Prison Break which I had always wanted to watch but it ended when I wanted to start. Finished season 1 yesterday and man this show is pretty good. Anyone else seen it back in 2005?
Please use the spoiler option, because I don't want to spoilers.

I just started season 1 today. I remember seeing some of them so I just started from the beginning. I was torn between Prison Break and Walking.
My favorite show of all time. Season 1 is probably the best but ***** starts coming that you never see. I'm watching 24 right now and it's a very close second. If you haven't seen that, watch it. I have a hard time paying attention to a lot of dramas unless they are a running plot throughout all seasons so those are what it takes to keep me interested.
This is very important:

Damn, that show was great!
Season 2 is best season
Awesome show...I got a bunch of friends hooked on it. Another show that is just starting (Started last week) is The Following. Its on Fox on Mondays but not sure what time, I just watched the first one online.
Season 1, 2, and 4 were good. Season 3 was a snoozer
Awesome show. Season 1 is by far the best, but they're all really good.

I don't know, Gretchen livened up season 3.
I liked 1 and 2, not as much the rest. Season 1 definitely the best.
Eyes closed, head first, can't lose.
Hands down my favorite TV series. I'd probably rank the seasons 1,2,4, then 3.
Just a question but if it was so good why was there a need to end it?Also I finished season 1 and have really no clue as to what will happen.

Because the storyline was drawn out far enough. There are very few shows that can carry more than 4-5 seasons. Breaking Bad is ending early too. My opinion is that every show should begin with a 5 season plan. If it makes sense to stretch it fine, but down ruin a show for the sake of running more episodes. They did that with Lost. Nip/Tuck was awesome for 3 seasons and then got so bizarre that it sucked.
Prison Break takes some drastic turns and a lot of things happen in the next 3 seasons you never see coming.
I really liked the early stuff, seemed like the premise lost steam in later seasons as one would expect.

Epson Home Cinema 2030 Projector Review
Epson Home Cinema 2030 Projector - Warranty
Epson's warranty on the Home Cinema 2030 (and 2000) is drastically superior to most of the competition, but not all. The Home Cinema 2030 (and the 2000), come with a two year parts and labor warranty. Both have Epson's replacement program for the full two year warranty. If you have a warranty repair, Epson will expedite you a replacement projector out of their fleet. They will pay the freight to you, and pay the shipping for you to ship your broken one back. They will put a hold on a credit card, to make sure they get a projector back. That's SOP (standard operating procedure) in the industry for Replacement (or loaner) type programs. Replacement programs are popular for portable business projectors, but other than Epson, home theater projector replacement programs are rare, and not found around this price range.
How Epson's replacement program works: Depending on the time of day you call, your replacement projector might actually arrive the next business day, or the following. You can't beat that.
Epson provides owners with a hotline number and ID in the box with their projectors. Calls go directly to the projector tech support folks, typically in under 2 minutes. As with almost all support operations, there's a first line of defense, fielding the calls. As is typical, if they can't solve it, you'll no doubt end up with "level 2″ support. Epson's level 2 support has traditionally been very good. I haven't spoken to their level one support in years.
In this price range, most projectors have just a one year warranty, while the a couple have two year warranties. Viewsonic does offer a 3 year warranty, but that's the only longer one I can think of without spending a lot more.
I can't think of even one other home theater projector with a two year replacement program except for other Epson projectors. That says something right there about Epson supporting their customers. With a replacement program, it's great to be back up and running in a day or two, rather than dealing with RMA's and repair times that can run weeks. By the nature of replacement programs, it pretty much means Epson has to take your word for it that there's a problem, as your replacement arrives before you even ship your original projector back to them (on their dime).
Epson's full program for the HC2030 is hard, no, impossible to beat, at this price point. Sleep easy with this projector.

I need some powerlifters opinions.
I haven't even had one powerlifting meet under my belt. Once was training for one and cut my hand so I decided to cut bodyfat, and never made the opportunity to do it again.
Currently 5'8" 228 lbs 26.8% bodyfat. I was up to 236 about 8 weeks ago and my strongest then, pretty flat since then since my calories have been under maintenance. lifts, bench 345x5, squat 415x5, deadlift 445x3, reverse band box squat 495x3 all beltless and without wrist wraps on bench.
Really kind of wanted to work towards a 2x bw squat and 3x bw S/DL, or more importantly even hitting 400 bench and 600 S/DL at any weight. I was thinking it would be fun to compete somewhere between 198, 220, or 242 weight classes at any given time.
The bodyfat seems to be a bit excessive, but every time I cut I feel too weak to continue, I have done long term cuts and maintained a lot of strength, and fast ones but in the end as I get smaller I still end up feeling weak and gain more weight. I mean I imagine if at some point my body is most competitive heavier at like 264 and that is primary goal I will go with what works for me. But at this point never competing I hate to carry excess weight if it is unnecessary and isn't even a large portion lean body mass.
I know many bodybuilders try to keep the fat gain to a minimum and cut more often to stay at a certain range. But do I really honestly need to do this? I can't decide which way to go with this. I mean if I cut now and then bulk I will obviously be bulking from a weaker starting point. If I bulk first at least I could break some records, but then cutting afterwards could be an issue.
I also get some advice where they say not to worry about my main lifts and do more cardio and circuit based routines and get below 20% in a short time period like 2 months. I know that would hurt my lifts, but at the same time help to keep me from hurting myself while on a deficit. But then I imagine most of the bulk would be getting back the strength that I lost not getting actually stronger, I mean in the end it will net a positive in some way or another.
Feel free to ask questions about my goals or whatever to give me decent advice. Not sure what's best right now.

Fair Fowl: Bay Area Artist Walter Kitundu On Bird Photography At Randall Museum
The phrase "Renaissance man" is bandied about freely when it comes to Bay Area artist, composer and instrument-maker Walter Kitundu. But the term fits. The inventor of the phonoharp (an instrument that beautifully incorporates a photograph), Kronos Quartet collaborator, Headlands Center for the Arts artist-in-residence and distinguished visiting professor of wood arts at the California College of the Arts was recognized in 2008 with a MacArthur Fellowship, otherwise known as the Genius Award. Bird photography is one of Kitundu's lesser-known yet impressive talents.
Music on Our Radar: Jack Penate at Botttom of the Hill
You have to appreciate a lad brave enough to break with form and extend his reach. Such is the sound of Everything Is New (XL) by London singer-songwriter Jack Penate, who I had pegged as an anti-folk/rockabilly busker of sorts. Silly me. This new album finds the 24-year-old grandson of Mervyn Peake, the author of the Gormenghast fantasies, turning an unexpected corner. You can hear him picking up and examining all sorts of found pop sounds, from house to Northern Soul, Tropicalia to hip-hop.
Family Ties Revisited: 'Still Walking' Takes A Stroll Between Life And Death
Hirokazu Kore-eda may be the most incisive cinematic chronicler of the modern Japanese family since master moviemaker Yasujiro Ozu. His first feature, Maborosi (1995), centers on a widow coping with the suicide of her husband, while his acclaimed 2004 film, Nobody Knows, revolved around the hardscrabble plight of four children, abandoned by their mother and forced to scrape out an existence on their own.

Ba. Na. Nas. It's a well-known secret: The Rachel Zoe Project is every fashionphile's little six-episode guilty pleasure.
Young Hearts: Japandroids Rock 'Post-Nothing'
Perhaps you missed Japandroids during their swing through San Francisco and the intimate Hemlock Tavern earlier this month. But it's not too late to catch a pungent whiff of the Vancouver guitar-drum duo's supercharged sound, thanks to the Japandroids' recently released debut full-length, Post-Nothing (Polyvinyl).
The Morning Benders on Mornings and Who They're Excited to See at Outside Lands
Morning Benders make such delightful indie pop: may the Berkeley band always live in a land of lollipop licks, sweet-as-honey harmonies, and dulcet hooks, all in full, gorgeous flower on the outfit's 2008 album, Talking Through Tin Cans. I checked in with lead Bender Chris Chu via e-mail on the occasion of the combo's upcoming Outside Lands date.
Q: What's been going on with Morning Benders?
Chris Chu: We are busy making a new album. It's called Big Echo. We also just went overseas to do some shows in London and a few festivals in Europe. That was amazing.
Roar Like A Mother: Dead Weather Makes Its First Stand At Outside Lands
Lean, mean, and propelled on the throaty thrust of a tough girl with a brand new hook-up -- what's not to love when it comes to the Dead Weather's Horehound (Warner Bros./Third Man). Jack White's latest handcrafted collabo comes to S.F. for the first time at Outside Lands Music and Arts Festival Sunday, Aug. 27. I'm betting cash money that it's going to be a major challenge to find a scrap of grassy turf at that performance -- what with all those White Stripes and Raconteurs fans.
Away We Go: Fiery Furnaces' Driving Music
Fiery Furnaces' Friedberger sibs are monsters of rock. And it's genuinely tough not to admire Eleanor and Matt Friedberger's crazily prolific music-making and live intensity -- ideas seem to simply shoot off the Brooklyn, N.Y., sister-brother team like sparks. Astonishing to think the two have only been making music in the public eye since 2000.
iPhone Artist Jorge Colombo Planning to Draw As Much of SF as He Can
Jorge Colombo's cover for the June 1 issue of The New Yorker stands on its very own merits, regardless of whether you know the backstory: It's economical, evocative, and haunting, an unexpected shadow view of an urban street-food scene. Here's the twist: Colombo painted it using a finger-painting app for the iPhone called Brushes. The NYC artist is visiting S.F. soon ("I'm planning to draw as much of San Francisco as I can"), and the time seemed right to check in with Colombo, born in Lisbon, Portugal, and once the art director at San Francisco magazine.
Q: How did The New Yorker cover come about?
Score One For The Lass: 'God Help The Girl'
Sheer girly charm appears to be the prime mover behind Belle and Sebastian poobah Stuart Murdoch's latest project, God Help the Girl (Matador). The actual shooting of the cinematic musical that this music is tethered to is off in the future, but why not enjoy this delightful score right here in the now?

A versatile Baroque composer
Johann Hermann Schein Complete Edition concluded
With the fourth part-volume of occasional compositions by the early Baroque composer Johann Hermann Schein (1586–1630), the publication of the "New Schein Edition" (Johann Hermann Schein: New Edition of the Complete Works) by Bärenreiter has been concluded. After extensive preliminary work, the first volume, "Israelsbrünnlein 1623" (edited by Adam Adrio), a collection of sacred madrigals in five parts, was published in 1964. From the second volume onwards, the Complete Edition was edited by the International Heinrich Schütz Society, which had an affinity towards the works of Schütz's friend Schein. After Adrio's death, Arno Forchert became General Editor of the scholarly edition in 1974. All surviving compositions from Schein's diverse output are now available in ten volumes (14 part-volumes), including both sacred and secular vocal works and instrumental compositions.

Wed Nov 16 18:01:00 EST 2011, Tenakee Springs, Alaska
The Blue Moon Cafe is the only restaurant in Tenakee, and proprietor Rosie only cooks when she wants to. Rosie's actually happy to entertain visitors, it's just that her old cook stove takes a long time and a lot of effort to start up, so she usually just serves drinks in the off season, along with local legends and gossip.
Rosie talked of the times when bears have followed the hunters back home to town, even breaking in to porches. "One of the bears was not too big", she says holding her hand 4 feet off the ground, "and the other was old and thin with no teeth, but they shot them anyway."
Interested in the old stove, I asked about her appliances, and heard a little about daily life. Just a few of the newer Tenakee homes have clothes washer/dryers, and those people host others' washing. Rosie wonders why people need the machine and the expense, don't they know how to wash clothes? You "pack in water" (carry buckets from a stream), wash the clothes in the same tub after you wash yourself, and hang dry. Sunday is ironing day, but we both admitted to skipping ironing most of the time.
Wed Nov 16 18:00:00 EST 2011, Tenakee Springs, Alaska
We awaited our next weather window spending about a week in Tenakee Inlet at anchor and at the Tenakee Springs town dock. As this is my first time visiting Alaska, I didn't mind the chance to see more of the local area.
Naturally, Tenakee Springs has a natural hot mineral spring pool, which since the early 1900's has been enclosed in a bathhouse to protect bathers from harsh weather. This also serves to protect modesty, since to keep the pool pure only nude bathing is allowed, with separate hours scheduled for women and men. Leave the dressing room and step down onto the stone deck in the steamy warm air. The 104F/35C mineral water bubbles out of 8 foot deep fissure and fills the small rock pool. Rinse off before settling in on the stone cut step, and warming up from a day of work on the boat. The mineral water and the heat together are so relaxing and rejuvenating! Thanks very much to the local Tenakee Bathhouse Committee for maintaining the spring and facilities.
Mon Nov 14 18:00:00 EST 2011, Chatham Strait, Alaska
Nice tailwind pushing us down Chatham Strait.
Were reminiscing about you at the Club with
Martin. Have still good, warm sailing days at Lk. Ontario. Heavy frost is coming to NW.
It could be quite a while before I have pics without snow :).
Joe & Wendy here, aboard the M V Surveyor, currently waiting to be icebound on Pigeon Lake.
Awesome journey, thank you for sharing. I much enjoy keeping track of yous and happy to see you all safe and realizing your dream. Almost makes me want to return to BC one day following in your wake. See, you made it so confusing now; Mexico or Iceland.
You know I always go for the heat.....
BTW, I see the Lofoten worked out good!
Fair winds for now,
Thanks very much, nice to hear from you.
The Lofoten heater has worked out well. I've used it a few times now under sail, when broad reaching or running (when not needing to use the mainsail).

Thanks in advance for your reply.

Early in the morning at the entrance to Inian Cove, where we anchored.
God Speed,
Tue Nov 8 15:49:03 EST 2011, Cape Spencer, Southeast Alaska
The gales and storms continued as one low pressure system after another reached Alaska. Unexpectedly, one day we suddenly had a forecast of relatively light (25-30 knots) and often favorable winds for several days.
For the fourth time, we left Yakutat.
We motored (and added sails when the wind was favorable) as quickly as we could, not sure that we really could trust being so lucky as to have several days of light and often favorable winds. The current was at first strong against us, then lessened as we made our way down the coast.
Late the next day, we approached Cape Spencer (picture) in good conditions, with a tailwind, intermittent rain and hail from a mild frontal passage, and 5m/16' following seas.
NOAA is reporting winds to 90 mph on the Bering Sea Coast today!
Here's to winter in Vancouver!
I am also relieved to hear that you may be safer from what the headlines here are proclaiming to be an unusually significant approaching Alaskan storm. When they're making a big deal in the press in NY about a storm in the Bering Sea, you know that there's a truly big blow afoot. Take care, and smooth sailing in all things large and small.
George, thanks, if I go to Puget Sound I will look up your friend.
I am really glad to not be anywhere near that unusually strong storm in the Bering Sea! I saw it forecast on the weatherfax the other day as 941mb and 70 knot (64 and above is hurricane force) winds--way more than I'd want to be out in.
Mon Nov 7 2:00:00 EST 2011, Alaska
Picture is of the sea buoy off Yakutat at dawn.
Leaving Yakutat seemed like such an easy trip--about 140 miles southeast to get into Cross Sound (an entrance to the Inside Passage where there are many places to anchor or dock).
Our first attempt to leave Yakutat was aborted when a 49knot squall that was not forecast (and caught the fishing fleet by surprise as well) came up as we were about to clear Yakutat Bay.
Our second attempt was aborted when we found an unexpectedly strong 1.5knot current running against us. We had only two days before a SE storm was to arrive and the timing of getting into an unfamiliar port in time to secure for a storm was too tight for comfort, so we returned to the safety and comfort of Yakutat again.
Low pressure systems kept coming into the Gulf of Alaska, and bringing mostly strong to storm-force SE winds to the coast where we were. There wasn't much of a gap between the storms, and they seemed to be forming faster and faster as October ended and November began.
The pilot chart (which shows average winds and currents for the oceans) showed pretty much no prevailing winds (but that is for a larger area). The Coast Pilot mentioned a current running along the coast that was variable in direction and speed, and mentioned that winds tended to run along the coast (in either direction) instead of crossing it.
On our third attempt, we left before dawn with a forecast for east winds, 30 knots, with 50 knots out of bays and passes, and almost two days before the next southeast storm. It didn't sound great, but it did sound possible.
We couldn't quite sail the southeast course without tacking, so motored close to shore, in relatively shallow water where we expected the least current. This time, the current was running two knots against us. The first bit of the coast was fine, then the wind steadily increased and our speed dropped. Motoring as fast as possible, we spent several hours making 1 to 1.5 knots.
I considered setting sails to go faster, but that would have taken us farther from the shelter of the shore, so the waves would have increased and waves from storm-force (50 knot) winds are never good.
We hand steered to maintain course. Because we were close to shore, the waves were small--less than a metre, but many were crossing the deck and most were getting the tops blow off by the wind, so it was very wet on deck.
The temperature was a few degrees above freezing and forecast to go well below freezing that night.
A friend on a fishing boat ahead of us radioed to say that the wind eased ten miles further. Only ten miles! The sun was soon to set, and at 1 to 1.5 knots, we would need to hand steer outside for several hours after dark until we got to where the wind was less. It would be quite tough on us standing outside steering with the constant spray in the below-freezing temperatures at night.
The critical thing to keep in mind about travelling in high latitudes is how easy it is to get into a survival situation. The Gulf of Alaska (and anywhere that far north) is a really unforgiving place in November. We weren't in any danger, but, if we wore ourselves out by getting cold hand-steering outside for hours in freezing spray, the danger was that if anything went wrong (like an engine problem, or taking on water), we would be exhausted, and not necessarily capable of quick, rational thinking and action.
We had tried for several weeks to leave Yakutat, and knew this break in the weather might be the last one until spring.
It is really hard to turn back, when you know you are likely to make it if you just persevere and tough it out. But while the risk of something going wrong was small, it was still there, and I decided it was better to return to Yakutat.
We turned around. Before easing off the throttle and setting sails (as the wind was now with us), we were making 8.7 knots. We had spent all day coming less than 30 miles, and we were soon back at the dock in Yakutat,
Was Issuma going to spend the winter in Yakutat?
Sun Nov 6 16:22:30 EST 2011, Yakutat, Alaska
November in Alaska. Hmmm.
Sun Nov 6 15:56:22 EST 2011, Yakutat, Alaska
My notes on Weather Forecasts for the Northwest Passage are now on my website at Northwest Passage Weather Forecasts
A rapidly intensifying storm was approaching the west coast of Alaska on Tuesday and could become "one of the worst on record" for the region, the National Weather Service said in an alert.
Weather looks to improve slightly Wednesday night...
Victor, I like ZyGRIB, and use it when I have a WiFi connection, but for most of the world, I believe it is providing GRIB data from the NOAA GFS model (which is the most commonly used one that I am aware of in general).
Doug, yes, Yakutat is a nice place. I really wanted to stop in Gjoa Haven, but conditions were against me, so I did miss out on visiting that really historic part of the NW Passage.
Amos, thanks for the link.
