Mitt Romney's and his campaign adviser's words in London this week that insulted an entire nation (perhaps our closest ally) confirmed what we knew all along; he's not presidential material. Imagine Romney hosting a dinner at the White House with heads of nations from around the world; we'd be at war before dessert was served. What I find troubling is that Romney's actions speak about a much deeper problem than any lack of diplomacy or foreign policy ability. Unless Romney has some rare form of turrets syndrome wherein he has no control of uttering untimely gaffs and insults with a conservative political tone, or some sort of psychological disorder that forces him to self destruct when speaking publicly, his arrogance is off the charts.
This isn't Romney's first time out of the U.S. Someone with his education, travels, and exposure to other cultures should know better. He should not need a script writer or a cadre of staff to write and rehearse him in advance of his every word. Moreover, his campaign adviser that said to Brittain's Telegraph, "We are part of an Anglo-Saxon heritage, and he feels that the special relationship is special," … "The White House didn't fully appreciate the shared history we have," [….] is of no value to Romney, or anyone else, since he or she displayed equally arrogant and unbecoming behavior.
Only arrogance and some perverted sense of white privilege could cause Romney's campaign adviser to exclude all other citizens, i.e., those not of Anglo-Saxon heritage in either country. Besides, it's a stretch to call upon a shared-heritage, referring to the West Germanic tribes (Angles, Saxons, and Jutes) that settled in Britain from the 5th century ad and were dominant until the Norman conquest in about 1066. Perhaps that's not the "shared heritage" his adviser was talking about.
What Romney and his campaign adviser could have referenced is our shared values and beliefs that if a person works hard and is responsible, no matter their heritage, they can succeed in either country. Or, our shared value to build a better global economy for all citizens, and not some. Or, our shared value to live in a nuclear arms free world; the U.K., among others, signed the nuclear non-proliferation agreement in 2010.
Being the leader of a country is not an "us" versus "them" situation. It's about being able to put forth policies and precedent, including one's words, to create value in the lives of the people you serve as their leader. That kind of shared value is what people want everywhere. Romney and his campaign adviser created no value for others or themselves this week. My apologies in advance to the citizens of Israel and Poland.

Does anyone have a working system using Ubuntu 804lts Zimbra v 6.x?
I would like to compare what I have on a new install (tried several times) to see if I am missing either a package or a configuration.
Either something is missing or mis configured or a BUG. I have been posting about this since RC1.. and now more people have a similar issue when they did their upgrades to Ver 6.x
I would like to get to the bottom of this if either
1) Someone has a working system
2) someone can guide me through locating the issue..
I don't have enough experience with Linux or Zimbra to do this.. and I have spent hours reading.

Last week IIABA announced the launch of a new venture, the Consumer Agents Portal, LLC, or Project CAP. This independent company—conceived and created by Big I and other leaders in the industry—will offer consumers shopping online for insurance real-time rate comparisons from independent insurance companies…and leads for member independent brokers and agents!
According to Scott Deetz, CEO of CAP, "CAP is an industry initiative driven by the leadership vision of key insurance carriers, IIABA, along with Trusted Choice® and Big "I" State Associations. They all want to enable independent agencies, brokers and carriers around the country to unite with a common goal of expanding their market share in personal lines insurance."
Project CAP is a critically important step for the future for independent agencies. Industry data shows three out of four consumers research insurance options online before purchasing insurance.
Starting in December of this year, Project CAP will rollout an industry services website to provide agencies with all of the digital marketing tools, training, systems, and services they need to build their brands and enhance their online presence. These tools include a free, basic website for all Trusted Choice agencies (with customization levels available for a fee).
The target date for the rollout of the Consumer Portal is 2nd Quarter 2012. The Portal will provide consumers the ability to evaluate dozens of insurance companies and insurance options, and deliver those consumers to independent brokers and agents to complete the sales process.
IBA West will be actively involved with Project CAP and its implementation and we will keep you posted on how this new venture can help your agency. Visit the Project CAP website for more information.

text: On March 31 (Monday), deputies were trying to locate an open house party in Santa Rosa Beach while on foot. As deputies approached the residence, Brandon Hardee, 17, of 1730 Bucks Club Drive, Alpharetta, GA, was also walking towards the same residence and was in possession of two beer cans which he tried to conceal once he saw the deputies approach. One of the deputies tried to make contact with Hardee, who forcefully hit the deputy in the upper chest and attempted to flee. A struggle ensued which took both Hardee and the deputy to the ground. Hardee continued to resist but was eventually placed in handcuffs. A search of his person was conducted and deputies found a small amount of marijuana and a smoking device. Hardee was booked at the Walton County Jail and was charged with battery on a law enforcement officer, resisting an officer without violence, possession of marijuana less than 20 grams, possession of drug paraphernalia and possession of alcohol by a person under the age of 21.

I am looking for a checksum algorithm where for a large block of data the checksum is equal to the sum of checksums from all the smaller component blocks. Most of what I have found is from RFCs 1624/1141 which do provide this functionality. Does anyone have any experience with these checksumming techniques or a similar one?
I have only used Adler/Fletcher checksums which work as you describe.
There is a nice comparison of crypto++ hash/checksum implementations here.
If it's just a matter of quickly combining the checksums of the smaller blocks to get to the checksums of the larger message (not necessarily by a plain summation) you can do this with a CRC-type (or similar) algorithm.
The CRC-32 algorithm is as simple as this:
Mathematically, the state represents a polynomial over the field GF2 that is always reduced modulo the generator polynomial. Given a new bit
where G is the generator polynomial and addition is done in GF2 (xor). This checksum is linear in the sense that you can write the message
with the following properties
Again, I mean the
Finally, it's possible to compute
So, getting the checksum of a zero-padded message is just a matter of multiplying the "checksum polynomial" of the non-padded message with some other polynomial (
Suggested reading: Painless Guide to CRC Error Detection Algorithms
To answer Amigable Clark Kent's bounty question, for file identity purposes you probably want a cryptographic hash function, which tries to guarantee that any two given files have an extremely low probability of producing the same value, as opposed to a checksum which is generally used for error detection only and may provide the same value for two very different files.
Many cryptographic hash functions, such as MD5 and SHA-1, use the Merkle–Damgård construction, in which there is a computation to compress a block of data into a fixed size, and then combine that with a fixed size value from the previous block (or an initialization vector for the first block). Thus, they are able to work in a streaming mode, incrementally computing as they go along.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The NCAA's Board of Directors will give low-resource schools more time to comply with the NCAA's Academic Progress Rate requirements.
An NCAA spokesman says the measure was approved Thursday.
Low-resource schools, primarily historically black colleges and universities, are ranked in the bottom 15 percentile based on an average of institutional spending per student, athletic expenses per student-athlete and the average Pell Grant per student. Football Bowl Subdivision schools cannot make the list.
In October, the board approved a proposal requiring schools to have a four-year APR average of 900 or an average of 930 on the two most recent scores to be eligible for postseason play over the next two years. All schools must have a 900 during that span, but some will not have to hit 930 until 2016-17.

Sony RX100M3: NFC problem when transferring from the RAW+.JPG setting
I'm shooting in the setting that creates both RAW (.ARW) and .JPG with my new Sony RX100M3 but I've encountered a problem when trying to use a wireless transfer to my Samsung Note 3 (NFC compatible). The transfer works with either .jpg or RAW (the camera creates a .jpg from RAW before the transfer) but when both .jpg and .arw files are present, the transfer routine faults and ends with an error message. Evidently the camera can't select just the .jpg. (?)
Am I doing something wrong? Has anyone else encountered this?

Agile 7 String Guitars
Looking for more than 6 ? 8 is too much ? There are a bunch of 7 string guitars retailed by Rondo Music under the Agile brand. Let's take a look at some of them.
Agile 7 String
After the nineties, there was a massive growth of bands and guitarist using seven string guitars. What was elitist and exclusive some time ago became more popular after the era of guitar heroes and the rise of nu metal bands. Of course we are talking about the now much more widely available 7 string guitars. While these guitars became much more common, the price of these guitars was usually high. This has changed in the last few years, and the best example is the different series of 7 string Agile guitars, which offer a fantastic value, with great prices, with the Interceptor, Septor, Intrepid, Pendulum and even some AL-3000 models.
Agile AL-727
Rondo Music retails this special version of the AL-3000 model, which features 7 strings instead of six. The Agile AL-727 has all of the features and advantages of the Les Paul guitar series allowing an increased flexibility because of the seventh string. Players of classic rock, hard rock, blues and the kinds, that are looking for a seven string guitar but do not like the more radical guitars that usually feature seven strings (we are talking about guitars aimed at metal and progressive rock) will love this instrument. Models on the AL-3000 family are just a few, since most of the players looking for a seven string axe usually play other kind of guitars, but nonetheless this might be the one for you, take a look at them.
What you get with the AL-3000 seven strings:
Solid mahogany
27" Scale
24 Jumbo Frets
Ebony fretboard
Cepheus Passive Ceramic Pickups
Cepheus TOM bridge, depending on the model
Full body and neck bindings, depending on model
Grover Die Cast Tuners
Some examples available:
Agile AL-3010SE 727 Flat Black Unbeatable at $369 here !!
Agile EB Tribal Red 7 – 27" and Ebony for $399 here !!
Full review and list of all available models for the AL-3000 line HERE.
Agile Intrepid
Most of the Intrepid models are aimed at 8 string guitar players, so you won't find many 7 string guitars in this line. However, now and then some models become available. For those who like the unusual body shape of the Intrepid guitars, make sure to check often for stock, and be fast because usually these guitars sell fast. Also, some multi-scale 7 stringers may become available from time to time. With the 7 String Intrepid you get:
Maple neck with a neck-thru Mahogany body
Ebony fretboard
24 jumbo frets with no inlays (markers on the side)
Dual Cepheus Pups
Die-cast Grover sealed tuners
Take a look at these models available:
Agile Intrepid Pro 72730 Cepheus active pickups Tribal Purple w/Case ! at $869 here !!
Agile Intrepid Pro 72730 EB CP Black Flame for $859 here !!
Agile Intrepid Pro 728 Dual Duncan active pickups Bloodburst for $499 here !!
Full review and list of all available models for the Intrepid line HERE.
Agile Interceptor
The Interceptor is the biggest line of guitars that Rondo Music retails, after the AL. Among others important things, in this model you will find 6, 7, 8 and even 9 string guitars ! Back to the core of this post, there are a bunch of 7 string Interceptor guitars available.
The Interceptor, thanks to its body shape and components, is the preferred Agile guitar for those who play metal and progressive rock.

Got the opportunity to talk to recruit KJ Williams out of Normal Ok. he told me that he likes the coaches up here and that ISU is on the top of his list right now. He also likes TAMU but had praise for ISU, so lets hope Chiz can pull this guy, he is a beast. But i wouldnt expect a decision too soon. Just a tid bit
ISUclones33 - Its always great to hear your insight 33 - That is some great news, i had discussed this earlier and ended with a blob about KJ:
From the efforts of our recruiting, DE must have been considered a weak spot. The coaches realize the area our team needed the biggest upgrades in were Offensive and Defensive Lines, we need a few stud DT's though.
The coaches must realize the easiest way to make your defense better instantly - GET PRESSURE ON THE QB. Any QB will make mistakes when they given little time to read the coverage and find the open receivers. Thats why our defense was 10th in sacks and last in interceptions and our opponents had the highest completion percentage in the big 12. Our DB's will look a lot better when the opponents QB has to make split second judgements, rather then what we indured last year as the qb's would go back to pass and you could count the time it took to get pressure on a sun dial.
Com'on Chiz and Staff get that commit from KJ Williams - you still need 2 commits to make my prediction come true 3 this week!!!!!!
Thanks for the info
I like 33's info. It's so raw.
KJ is a beast! No way he would ever redshirt and he would get great minutes right away. He was #1 on my list of wish list. If we could pull him outta OK, i dont know what id do.
The staff has two DE commits already, but they're in on two big-name DEs in Williams and Moore. I wonder if they are thinking about growing 1-2 into DTs.
XXXX Master Shake is under gag order XXXX
Moore is already 270 pounds and could easily be moved inside. Chizik is has also been big on depth on the lines and the more big D-Linemen the better. KJ also plays TE and could be used there as well.
KJ is somewhat star struck right now, he wants his foot in evey schools door, but he told me in all honesty right now its Iowa State and TAMU, the only down fall of him is that his GPA is only 2.60 and that is what i think is making some schools shy away from him at the moment. But none the less great to hear him say, ISU is at the top of my list.

I don't think Iowa State fans understand what it means to have defensive depth. When only 12 or 13 guys see the field during a whole game, that is a problem. That was one of my major beefs with DMAC and Skladany I guess. You've got subs, use them. Can you honestly say that subbing in a few plays here in there is really going to be a catestrophic mistake? Boy did that bug me. That and the fact that I could predict way too many plays on offense.

DALLAS — The Kings are staying in Sacramento. Can we say that again? The Kings are staying in Sacramento.
In what would have been considered a major upset only four months ago, the Board of Governors looked hard at Seattle but did a double-take when evaluating Sacramento. Come again? They remembered almost three decades of good times — of sellout streaks and international appeal and impassioned crowds even when the team was terrible. They listened to members of the relocation committee and, yes, to their stubborn and respected and retiring commissioner. And ultimately, they envisioned a revived franchise with impressive new owners, a state-of-the-art arena, and an invigorated fan base.
It's true. It happened. Lightning struck, thunder rolled in, and tornado warnings were issued throughout the city known as Big D. But all that happened later in the evening. Earlier in the afternoon, while rain pelted the hotel where the league's owners convened to determine the Kings' future, the Sacramento entourage pitched a near-perfect storm of a presentation.

Mayor Kevin Johnson spoke about jobs and economic development and the community's commitment to his hometown's only major professional sports franchise. Vivek Ranadive put 100 percent of the counter-offer into escrow, and in another interesting turn of events, announced that one of the nation's largest swimwear manufacturers had joined his potential ownership group. Prominent local developer Mark Friedman, who later emotionally likened the Kings' journey to the book "The Little Engine That Could," convincingly addressed the issues involved with demolishing the Downtown Plaza and constructing a sports and entertainment complex by 2016.
"This is just an incredible day for Sacramento," added Mike Tavares, one of the dozen Kings fans who flew here and hung out in the hotel lobby while awaiting the outcome. "Nobody thought we could do it. With the community coming together, the politicians and the business leaders, and KJ pulling everybody in, it's a Hollywood story."
This was most significant: George Maloof also referred to the process as "fair" and said legal action was a non-starter.
Later, when asked why he never went public about a desire to sell to a local group, he said, "That's not the way I do business."
Finally there seems to be a graceful exit strategy. Get the deal done. Compromise and figure out something that works.
So who needs a Hollywood ending? A few more handshakes would be just fine.

Arrest in NYC crash that killed expectant parents
NEW YORK A man suspected of fleeing the scene of a grisly crash in New York City that killed a pregnant woman, her husband and their unborn child has been ordered held without bail after his arrest at a Pennsylvania convenience store.
The (Easton) Express Times says a judge held a video hearing Wednesday for Julio Acevedo and said the suspect would be held overnight in Lehigh County Prison in eastern Pennsylvania while awaiting an extradition hearing Thursday morning to address his return to New York.
Acevedo allegedly was speeding down a Brooklyn street early Sunday when he crashed into a car carrying Nachman and Raizy Glauber, both 21. They died Sunday, and their premature son died Monday.
It was not clear if the 44-year-old man had a lawyer.
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.
A man suspected of fleeing the scene of a grisly crash in New York City that killed a pregnant woman and her husband was arrested at a convenience store in northeastern Pennsylvania on Wednesday after a friend arranged his surrender with New York authorities.
Julio Acevedo, 44, walked to officers waiting in cars in the parking lot in Bethlehem, Pa., and was arrested on charges of leaving the scene of an accident, said Paul Browne, chief spokesman for the New York Police Department. Acevedo, wearing a hooded sweatshirt, said nothing to officers who took him into custody, Browne said.
The surrender, which occurred shortly after 5 p.m., was brokered by a friend who had been in touch with police earlier in the day. The friend met officers at New York's Grand Central Station, then led them to Acevedo in Bethlehem, about 80 miles away, police said.
Acevedo was being held by Pennsylvania State Police and was awaiting extradition to New York. Browne said it wasn't clear when he would be returned.
It also wasn't clear if Acevedo had an attorney. The friend had told police that Acevedo would surrender after consulting a lawyer, but none was with him when he turned himself in, Browne said.
Acevedo allegedly was speeding down a Brooklyn street at 60 mph early Sunday when he crashed into a car carrying Nachman and Raizy Glauber, both 21. They died Sunday, and their premature son died Monday.
Acevedo told the Daily News that he was fleeing a gunman who was trying to shoot at him when his borrowed BMW slammed into a hired car carrying the couple. He told the newspaper he fled because he was worried he'd be killed. But police said there were no reports of shots fired in the area at the time of the wreck.
The tragedy unfolded shortly after midnight Saturday, when Raizy Glauber, who was seven months pregnant, decided to go to the hospital because she wasn't feeling well, her family said. They called a livery cab, a hired car that is arranged via telephone, not hailed off the street like a yellow cab.
The crash with the BMW reduced the cab to a crumpled heap, and Raizy Glauber was thrown from the wreck. The engine ended up in the back seat. The driver of the livery cab was knocked unconscious but was not seriously hurt.
The couple belonged to a close-knit ultra-Orthodox Jewish community in Brooklyn, which is home to the largest community of ultra-Orthodox Jews outside Israel, more than 250,000. They were members of the Satmar Hasidic sect. Raizy Glauber grew up in a prominent rabbinical family. Her husband was studying at a rabbinical college; his family founded a line of clothing for Orthodox Jews.

Madonna and Lourdes Debut Clothing Line TodayTheMommyologist
There's a new junior's line of clothing going on sale at Macy's stores today, August 3rd, 2010, and it's sure to have teens running to the mall! Madonna and her daughter, Lourdes, 13, new "Material Girl" collection debuts at 10:00am.
Items in the line, which was inspired by Madonna's pal, designer Stella McCartney, will include classic pieces for the school year, such as shoes and blue jeans, and any 80s fans out there will be happy to know that fingerless gloves are also making a comeback with the launch of Material Girl. I wonder if teens today have ever heard that song? Or if they've even heard of Madonna?
Lola, as Lourdes likes to be called, is certainly developing her own sense of style.
When asked about her daughter's fashion sense, Madonna said, "I always have two reactions when my daughter comes into a room with an outfit on. One is 'Oh my God, she looks amazing, what incredible style' and my second reaction is, 'She's dressed completely inappropriately for school."
Hmm…fingerless gloves aren't acceptable for the classroom these days? Who knew?

A letter from Jane Holslag in Lithuania
Friends of mission near and far!
It's been too long since you've heard from me, but here are some snapshots of the last months:
Last Fall I taught Biblical Interpretation for the first time. Six women (two North Americans, one Lithuanian, and three Ukrainians) made up the class. We took a while to find our footing, but as the semester progressed, God's living and written Word took hold! I learned from them at least as much as they learned from me. Their faces tell the rest.
This semester in Intro to New Testament we're focusing on the "kingdom of heaven" and we're walking through the Gospel of Mark. After class one day a student came up and waited patiently till I was free to talk. She then said, "Jane, I just figured out that the kingdom of God is a gift, and I don't have to be good enough… I learned in our group that God's word is planted and it grows, and we just need eyes to see and ears to hear…. Wow! I feel just like Columbus when he discovered America!" Why she chose that metaphor I don't know, but her joy was infectious.
One Sunday at our English-speaking worship service, the Study Abroads were in charge. One particularly articulate fellow "preached" about God's sufficiency. Nice job for a junior in college! However, I knew I was "out of it" when I realized he was reading Scripture off his cell phone! Oh, my goodness.
Two students this week thanked me for our watching a movie instead of lecture?! One was a film on the apostle Paul with some schmaltzy fictionalized characters but overall a reasonable portrayal of the problems, persecution and challenges 1st century believers faced. The second was a hard-to-watch hour of testimony from apartheid victims and Desmond Tutu—the Truth and Reconciliation Commission documentary. In both cases the comment was, "Thank you—that really helped me." God's witnesses are all around!
One of the newest board members at LCC is the mother of a student. She comes from east of here, and she was asked yesterday to give her testimony. Raised during the Soviet era, she had been sure there was no God, but as it happened, step by step, God became real for her, first through the testimony of someone she couldn't imagine taking God seriously and then through reading the Gospel of John. As I sat there and listened, I was again struck by how our Lord's ways and words meet each of us exactly in the place and time we need. In that moment, I needed this mom's story!
Though these winter months hardly needed more activity, I traveled to Moscow and environs for eight days and spoke at a conference for camp leaders and directors. Our spring has been very cold, and these days were that and more. However, this joyful gathering was a warm reminder of the great things that can happen when Christians from many denominations get together to learn, to worship, to play, to sing and to laugh! The conference was a training event for folks from all over Russia, and I taught a workshop on "A Ministry of Presence to Youth and Children." Basing it in part on my own youth work experience and in part on my dissertation research, I led a six-hour seminar/workshop, with the help of my most able translator, Lidiya, an LCC grad from Ukraine. There were 22 students mostly in their 20s and 30s—all volunteer leaders for summer camps in their home churches and regions. Christian camping is a hot evangelism tool for churches in Eastern Europe and Russia. It was amazing to hear about these camps and to meet these young adults who'd become Christians at such events and were now growing into leaders.
As you remember, I have been, for some time, in my freer moments, working to finish a doctoral dissertation, and at long last the project is nearing final completion! Five outside readers have approved it, and the defense date is now set for June 19. I began this journey 10 years ago. For all who have supported and cheered me on, I say THANK YOU as this endeavor nears completion.
Tomorrow is Palm Sunday, and I don't remember Lent ever going so fast! In fact, it does indeed seem time goes faster and I go slower (turning 65 soon may be a factor?). I remember Dad saying this in his latter years as well. I don't understand this phenomenon and I'm trying to learn to adjust to it—that is, to accept it! My mo thus far has been to downshift and regain momentum in order to catch up; that era is apparently over! It might be because the gears are stripped (though I hope not!), but I think God is up to something new in my life—and I close thanking you once again for your faithfulness, your prayers, and your continued generous financial support (this, dear friends, is more important than ever). Of course now and again I love hearing about what's happening in your lives and the lives of your congregations! You are still on MY prayer list!
Grace and Peace,
Jane Holslag

How to describe what Al Pacino does in "Phil Spector"? He dons the wigs and the time-warped fashions, he gnashes his teeth and rolls his eyes and bellows to the heavens about shaping the music industry and how he knows how the game is played: "They kill men for telling the truth!" He does his best to indulge in the scenery chewing that's become an unfortunate tendency in the great actor's later career work -- and still he seems diminished against the backdrop of director and writer David Mamet's audacious and unpleasant concept for this HBO original movie, which premieres on Sunday, March 24th at 9pm.
There will be no gnawing on "Phil Spector" -- "Phil Spector" will eat itself, thank you very much. The film begins with a title card noting that it "is a work of fiction" that is "inspired by actual persons in a trial," but "is neither an attempt to depict the actual persons, not to comment upon the trial or its outcome." A disclaimer about truth and narrative intent could probably be applied to any film that makes use of the stories of real people -- "The Social Network" turned the founding of Facebook into the story of a young man pinning all his hopes for happiness and revenge on those who'd slight him on success, while "A Beautiful Mind" trimmed John Nash's life into a neater tale of genius, mental illness and redemption.
But what Mamet does in "Phil Spector" is more queasy, because the inspiring incident is so close, and because the film boldly suggests that Spector was not guilty, or at least tried more for being an outsized freak than because of the evidence. Spector was, in fact, convicted of second-degree murder in the 2003 shooting of actress Lana Clarkson in 2009, which makes the film's application of fiction to the legal proceedings extremely uncomfortable.
Mamet is repurposing a tragic, ugly and only decade-old death for his dark Hollywood fable, and the transformation doesn't sit well. "Phil Spector" might most easily be compared to Steven Shainberg's "Fur," which imagined a glib fairy tale beginning for the career of photographer Diane Arbus that had far more to do with the filmmakers than the subject. Mamet may not have set out to make a film about the facts of the Spector case, but the ways in which he uses actual elements from it to reflect his own disappointingly simplistic take on human nature end up feeling sour and distasteful.
Helen Mirren plays Spector's defense attorney Linda Kenney Baden, who's called in by Bruce Cutler (Jeffrey Tambor) to take over the case while he heads back to New York to star in a TV show. Mirren's given the difficult and generally thankless task of playing a no-nonsense woman who comes to believe not just in Spector's probably innocence but in his charm (and who spends the film in the grip of a worsening illness).
Kenney Baden contends with Spector in person -- wandering through his "castle" like a potential victim in a horror movie -- as well as on tape, in footage from his years in the studio and via recorded interviews with his ex-wife Ronnie Spector and others in his life. Spector is, as Pacino plays him, a bloviating monster, a minotaur in his labyrinth who likes to expound on how brilliant he was and why the world resents and wants to use him for fame.
What did Lana Clarkson want? Publicity. What do they all want? People think it's contagious, you can get it by hanging around someone who's got it. I don't know this? And that idiot -- whom I would have helped, why not -- came in here and ruined my life by sticking a gun in her mouth. For what? For what is this retribution? For what am I being punished?
Mamet's right in that having a repellent personality isn't a reason to go down for a crime. But the film's disinterest in any greater details of the case outside of Spector's account Kenney Baden's preparations, in which she examines a blood spray test and watches how sample members of the public react to evidence they plan to present, make the film's attempt to turn Spector into a sort of oafish martyr feel cheap and unfair. Kenney Baden is a professional defense attorney, and yet "Phil Spector" tries to make its major moment of drama hinge on what she feels about her client's innocence, to make it one and the same with her faith in Spector's ability to testify, where she hopes the jury will "get used to him, after which he will no longer be an oddity but a beloved eccentric."
The best trick "Phil Spector" has is one that's borrowed from Vikram Jayanti's documentary "The Agony and the Ecstasy of Phil Spector," which provided Mamet with the spark for his film -- it's the juxtaposition of Spector classics like "Unchained Melody" and "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" against moments that are anything but lush and pop. Those moments of lift are rare in what's otherwise a sad but rote showbiz tragedy traced out in Mamet's signature rat-tat-tat dialogue, that can't make you anywhere as compelled by its version of its subject as the director is.

Ingersoll Rand To Acquire Cameron's Centrifugal Compression Division
Broadens portfolio of compression products, services; follows GE acquisition of Cameron's Reciprocating Compression division
Ingersoll Rand has entered into an agreement to acquire the assets of Cameron International Corp.'s (CAM) Centrifugal Compression division for US$850 million. The acquisition is expected to close before the end of the year, subject to regulatory approval.
The division provides centrifugal compression equipment and aftermarket parts and services for global industrial applications, air separation, gas transmission and process gas. Cameron's Centrifugal Compression division generated sales of approximately US$400 million in 2013, the company said.
This announcement comes on the heels of GE's January announcement of its US$550 million acquisition of Cameron's Reciprocating Compression division. Houston, Texas, U.S.A.-based Cameron said the division provides reciprocating compression equipment and aftermarket parts and services for oil and gas production, gas processing, gas distribution and independent power industries. It generated sales of approximately US$355 million in 2012, has approximately 900 employees and operates from 20 global locations. GE Oil & Gas said that this deal will enhance its distributed gas portfolio, and expand servicing and manufacturing capabilities in gas production, processing and distribution sectors
Ingersoll Rand said this current acquisition will strengthen its Compressed Air Systems and Services business, which provides a wide range of centrifugal, reciprocating and rotary air compressor products used in a variety of industrial and manufacturing applications. Cameron's Centrifugal Compression division will also expand Ingersoll Rand's compression offerings into areas such as air separation, petrochemical, chemical and process gas. Upon closing of the transaction, the company will welcome the Turbo-Air and MSG brands into the Ingersoll Rand family.
Ingersoll Rand said it plans to fund the acquisition through a combination of cash on hand and debt.

Three months after it launched, History TV18, owned by a joint venture between Network 18 and American television network AETN, said it has overtaken leader Discovery Channel in market share in six metros, riding on a mix of programmes and dubbed content in six regional languages. Although the new channel has a lead over Discovery in six metros, the latter is way ahead in all-India viewership in the factual entertainment genre.
Discovery commanded a market share of 41.9% in all-India viewership, followed by National Geographic Channel with 27.5% and 17.9% by History TV18, data provided by Television Audience Measurement (TAM) show. Animal Planet, Discovery Science and Discovery Turbo ended with market shares of 11.9%, 0.4% and 0.3%, respectively.
Consultants and media buyers say, Historys differentiated programming, dubbed content in six regional languages and an eyeball-grabbing brand campaign with Bollywood actor Salman Khan led to the rise in viewership. History said in a statement, it garnered 33% market share by December, ahead of Discoverys 31% and National Geographics 13% in the six metros of Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai, Kolkata, Bangalore and Hyderabad.
Great content and language dubs is the way for global content channels to progress, says Punitha Arumugam, CEO, Madison Media, a media buying agency. This is what would have worked for History too.
Regional splits is the future for not only infotainment channels but for every channel in the market, she adds. she says, as more and more advertisers are exploring better targeting of audiences and localisation of messaging, the need of the hour is for regionalisation of national telecast beams.
History has feeds in English, Hindi, Marathi, Bengali, Tamil, Telugu and Gujarati and reaches out to 40 million TV households. We expect to reach 55-60 million viewers in next one year, says Ajay Chacko, president, AETN18 Media. Theres a clear demand for such content and many regional markets are yet to be tapped.
Besides regional content, Historys focus on the entertainment element has also been the key. Earlier, wildlife defined the factual entertainment space with shows primarily leaning towards mans survival, says Sudheer KG, vice-president, programming, at AETN18 Media. There was an overdose of man versus wildlife, hence, when we came in with a differentiated offering of food, travel and history shows, audiences switched over willingly.
The differentiation was also facilitated by language dubbing, he says. Language is a key component because it leads to a transition from mindless watching to mindful watching. Some of Historys shows

More physician leaders are embracing technological advances, such as electronic medical records, but most still consider them clunky and unresponsive to their needs. Those are the results found in a recent survey by the American College of Physician Executives (ACPE). About 1,000 ACPE members responded to the 2009 survey.The findings were published in the March/April issue of the Physician Executive Journal, ACPE's journal of medical management.
ACPE conducted the same survey back in 2004. Five years later, there were some surprising findings:
- More than 64 percent of respondents said they used electronic medical records, up from 33 percent in 2004
- About 44 percent said their organization uses computerized order entry, while only about 33 percent used CPOE five years ago.
- More than 38 percent said they used pharmaceutical bar coding, up from 20 percent in 2004.
However, while the use of technology may be on the rise, physician attitudes regarding it haven't changed much since 2004. Some physicians embrace the new measures, but a much larger number viewed health care technology as frustrating and difficult to use.
One physician even said that adopting electronic medical records was "the worst aspect of my 25 years in medicine. It has ruined doctor productivity, produced lower quality care and encouraged notes that are false to the point of fraud."
Others said the cost was prohibitive and the software difficult to implement. A common complaint -- especially among physicians who shuttle between hospitals and private practice -- was that the available systems don't do a good job of talking to one another.

W-B Area OKs purchase of new alert system
WILKES-BARRE - The Wilkes-Barre Area School Board approved a $12,597 purchase for a new alert system to send messages and texts about snow cancellations, delays, early dismissals and emergencies.
Parents can select how to be contacted, and choices include phone message, email or text message. The alert system called Skylert will be added to the district's Skyward system, which is used to manage finances, human resources and administrative information.
"We tried a system that very candidly did not do what this system does in order to keep our kids safe and our parents informed," Superintendent Bernard S. Prevuznak said at Monday's board meeting, adding many school districts use the Skylert system.
Also at Monday's meeting, the board also approved the following personnel appointments: Melissa Carter Myers, acting dean of students at Coughlin High School; Michelle Williams, director of federal programs and grant writer; Heather Lavelle and Ashley Altavilla, long-term elementary substitutes; Karen Coyne, long-term special education substitute; Jason Lukachinski, long-term secondary social studies substitute; Carolyn Karosa, day-to-day speech pathologist substitute; Peggy Amory, school nurse; Jane Nargoski, secretary; Connie Saracino, Matt Endress and Melana Khalife, para-professionals; Carrie Rushkowski as 20-hour-per-week dental hygienist aide; Victor Diaz, 25-hour-per-week housekeeper; and John Morgan, substitute security greeter.
The board also approved a $67,723 allocation for 2014-15 to the Luzerne Intermediate Unit, which provides various services to area schools, including special education. The allocation is $40 more than this year's amount. The proposed total contribution for all membership districts is $402,031.
In other business:
n Board members agreed to refinance about $5 million in debt from a 2007 bond issue to save $75,000.
n The board approved a $91,962 contract with Field Turf USA, in conjunction with Byenon/Nagle Athletic Services, for repair and resurfacing of the Solomon/Plains Junior High School track.

Adult Skin Problems
Courtesy of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
Cold sores, sometimes called fever blisters, are groups of small blisters on the lip and around the mouth. The skin around the blisters is often red, swollen, and sore. The blisters may break open, leak a clear fluid, and then scab over after a few days. They usually heal after several days to 2 weeks.
Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV). There are two types of herpes simplex virus: HSV-1 and HSV-2. Both virus types can cause lip and mouth sores and genital herpes.
The herpes simplex virus usually enters the body through a break in the skin around or inside the mouth. It is usually spread when a person touches a cold sore or touches infected fluid-such as from sharing eating utensils or razors, kissing an infected person, or touching that person's saliva. A parent who has a cold sore often spreads the infection to his or her child in this way. Cold sores can also be spread to other areas of the body.

Hello faithful readers! Welcome to the second of two (so far) installments of Eric's Weekly (or Close to Weekly) Blog/Podcast Review. I hope everyone enjoyed last week's post featuring the fabulous This American Life radio show. I hope everyone tuned into this past week's show about the ground games in PA. I know I did.
Up this week at EW(oCtW)B/PR is my first blog review. There are so many types of blogs out there. Some are catered to a niche crowd while other will appeal to just about anybody. The blog I have chosen this week is catered to something of a specialized market, cake enthusiasts. I present to you, Cake Wrecks.
Cake Wrecks gathers photo submissions from people all over who have experienced tragedies with professional cake decorators. Their tagline is, "When professional cakes go horribly, hilariously wrong."
There is no disappointment here. They also feature really sweet cakes, like this one:
I like Cake Wrecks because I can pop over for a few minutes, look at some cakes, and then go do something else. Also, Cake Wrecks is fun to look at with friends. So grab a buddy or a special friend and celebrate someone else's ruined celebration.
