the cheap ones from performance are fine, and in some ways better than the expensive ones. For track warmups you don't want the high resistance of small drums-- the big drums are better for spinning. what you get from the expensive ones is smoother drums and less vibration.
You are having fun with this sport, aren't you!!! :-)
For the past several years I have been gung ho about running mountain half marathons. I have done well for my size, but winning will never happen when I am 185lbs and built more like a football player. So I am getting burned out and receiving "finisher's medals" have lost it's luster.
People are saying, "yeah, just see how you like racing, yada yada yada" and I am thinking, "I don't need to 'see' how I like it. I'm IN. This is what I'm going to focus on, indefinitely". I used to dabble in track racing as a skinny little Junior cyclist back in the day so it's not completely new. But now that I have grown into my body and my confidence is stronger, it's completely different.
But yeah, I'm having fun.

There is one other thing I didn't mention - about a year and a half ago I had a severe malfunction with my immune system where my immune system went berzerk and started attacking my platelets, which are the component of your blood that keeps you from bleeding to death. I could have bumped my knee and died from internal bleeding. I was in the hospital for almost 10 days getting CAT scans, platelet transfusions, living on the oncology floor with dying people. At first my symptoms matched Leukemia, so you can imagine that was REALLY scary. Turned out to be something else and after a round of treatment, I beat the odds (20% chance) and recovered (well, I'm in a "remission"... this COULD come back). Anyway, I was really scared, thought I was going to die at that hospital.
I feel like I have a 2nd chance and I have a new realization of how life could end at any time. I am lucky that I can understand this. I think everyone needs a good scare. So given that I don't know if this could come back and haunt me, I am more focused on health and fitness (to do what I can to keep it from coming back) and more importantly, I want to kick ass and have fun while I'm here on earth. Whether it be 1 year or 60 more! I'm 35 now and in the best shape of my life. Just having fun with my healthy body. Track racing fits the bill perfectly.

I use Kreitler because they are available in 4.5" metal drums.
Track racers usually don't want resistance from their rollers (small barrels = high resistance, large barrels = low resistance). They often use the rollers for warming up, cooling down, or cadence work...all of which are better with low resistance rollers.
Thanks for sharing your story. Sounds like you are living life with a passion and definately are all in. Keep up the good work!
I like to borrow them for the same reason, but I'm too cheap to buy the kreitlers.I use Kreitler because they are available in 4.5" metal drums.
I already have a set of rollers which are fine for home and races that I have till now driven to.
But given it will be actually cheaper for me to fly rather than drive the 900km up to Sydney for the Australian National Track Cyling Masters next February, I am looking to take the plane this time.
Given I'll already be loaded up with two bikes, I'm after suggestions on which model rollers are the lightest...
I had a set custom made way back in the day. Lathe turned aluminum, perfectly smooth and concentric. So perfect that it was actually kind of annoying, as I never found a tire round enough that I couldn't detect imperfection in it. Nothing like riding on $400 worth of tires and thinking "Man, I can so feel that lump near the valve stem". They also were heavy, and didn't fold. So eventually I bought a pair of Performance ones for traveling to races...
My case was Hodgkin's Lymphoma, diganosed Jan 2010. A major operation, 6 months chemo, and now periodic PET scans. I'd been road riding for years mostly non-competitively, and in retrospect, that's where the symptoms showed first when I'd be climbing but at the time I couldn't figure it out. (Oh, softball size tumor pressing between heart and lung...that'll do it).
Tried track reluctantly after remission as a "taste of life" thing and ended up liking it more than road/mtb. Likewise with cyclocross.
Figured I would throw this in. If you can afford 850.00 dollars, E Motion rollers are the ultimate indoor riding. However they are heavy and not very well suited for taking to the track. With for and aft motion, they are extremely easy to learn and very forgiving. Five min. to learn and could stand and sprint first session. Extremely easy to adjust also. Thumbs up to these rollers.
I bought a pair of Minoura metal drum rollers on ebay for $50. Figured it was
worth the entry price to see if I liked them. 4.5inch metal rollers that I actually
enjoy riding.
I found the following weights listed in confusing terms to say the least:
CycleOps Aluminum Rollers 9.9 lbs
Minoura 10.14 lbs.
Kreitler challenge 4.5 inch 5.1 lbs (poly end caps).
kreitler Alloy shipping weight 18 lbs
Jet Black rollers shipping weight 28.8 lbs
Sono più lento di quel che sembra.
Odio la gente, tutti.

+1 for Performance aluminum rollers. Just picked some up on their "Trainer Sale" for 150

From Wideband Amplifier Design
It is useful to have two-port models available for the simplified transistor models introduced in Chapter 2. The model shown in Figure B-1 does not include any reference to C jc or R bb, but these items are easily added later, and there are times you would want to do an analysis without them. C jc is included in the equation for f t (and therefore T t) so the frequency response for the model has not been compromised. I have included R eb because it is an important factor, and it is not always easily added. From this model, we want to derive the two-port h-parameter and the two-port s-parameter model. We will begin with the h-parameter model.
Figure B-1: A simplified model of the type we used extensively throughout the book.
In this model, C ? = T tg m and . Combining these two equations, we get . We will use these relationships in the following analysis.
B.1 h-PARAMETER TWO-PORT MODEL
The h-parameter two-port model is defined as
Multiplying this gives
To solve these, we use the following
By inspection, we see immediately that for the circuit of Figure B-1, h 12 and h 22 are both zero. Using Mathematica to solve node and loop equations derived from Figure B-1, we find that
Given the definition for h 11, we see immediately that

I think London Town is MUCH stronger than Egg. As I said, Egg has some great tunes (Getting Closer, Old Siam Sir, Spin It On, Arrow Through Me), I really like Baby's Request, To You is ok...the rest is weak by Wings' standards.
And MMM, whether you knew it before or not, it was supposed to be a concept album just as you said...they dumped that idea at the last moment but the feel of it is still there with the songs sequenced the way they are.

Re-listened to this again, along with a heap of alternates and outtakes, in my trawl thru Paul's music releases.
The problem i have with it is summed up by the title song, there is some good stuff in there but also some utter garbage and because of that i don't go back very often at all. That "toot, toot, toot" stuff is up there with pure Macca lazy shite that should have been worked on until it was improved. Cafe On The Left Bank is another that could have been worked on and improved but wasn't and so is a drag and too long.
I'm Carrying for the large part is fantastic but goes on a bit too long, Cuff Link is pointless uninteresting filler, Famous Groupies is a joke that i fail to find either funny or interesting.
The rest is good with Deliver Your Children having some lovely guitar work and all tracks i enjoy listening too. I have no idea what Morse Moose is doing on this album as its unlike anything else on it but its great when played loud.
As for the single from these sessions I'm biased towards Mull Of Kintyre for obvious reasons whilst Girls School is interesting musically but the lyrics are complete tripe and annoy the living daylights out of me - and it's another song that is way too long.
Outtake-wise there is a gorgeous stripped early rough mix of Don't Let It Bring You Down and an instrumental version of Morse Moose and The Grey Goose - no idea what the hell to make of that, its so bizarre. If anyone wants to hear it there is an Alternate London Town bootleg on youtube.

The Eternal Return of Robert Rubin
I'm all for bashing Robert Rubin's tenure at Citigroup or even for bashing some of the financial regulation decisions he made as US Treasury Secretary, but I'm growing frustrated with the widespread use of the term "Rubinite" as essentially a disparaging synonym for "worked on economic policy in the Clinton administration."
The thing about the Clinton administration is that Jimmy Carter's administration ended in 1980. So if you're going to create an economic policy team for Barack Obama your main choices are (1) "folks who worked on economic policy in the Clinton administration," (2) "folks who worked on economic policy in the Bush administration," and (3) "folks with little economic policy experience." Now forced to choose between (1) and (2), I think (1) is clearly the better choice. Option (3) isn't the worst thing in the world, lots of intelligent knowledgeable right-thinking people don't happen to have experience in government. But it seems to me that it's extremely prudent for a president to desire that the majority of his economic policy team be composed of people with previous executive branch economic policy experience. That means basically a lot of "Rubinites" plus various exceptions around the margin. Maybe Obama could recruit Stanley Fischer away from the Bank of Israel to run the National Economic Council. But even so, you'd need a lot of "Rubinites" to staff an administration.
Now if what you're really saying is that you think it's a mistake to believe in the value of previous government experience, that's an interesting argument to have. I think it's wrong but either way it's not really an argument about Bob Rubin.
Alternatively, it could be that what you're really saying is simply that you don't like this revolving door between government and Wall Street. I don't like it either and as Jonathan Bernstein points out there's a simple solution and it involves shifting to a more professional system of government with fewer political appointees. Retired military officers often go work for defense contractors and there's some corrupting influence there, but you don't have a scenario where a Major General retired after the 2000 election, goes to work for Raytheon for eight years, and then comes back as a four-star after Barack Obama's inauguration. Most countries rely on career professionals much more than we do, programs that are managed by civil servants perform better than those run by political appointees, and when it comes to the branch of the public sector that the US takes most seriously—the military—we rely heavily on career professionals. Bernstein has an irrational attachment to America's heavy reliance on political appointees, but as he says "all those appointees need somewhere to go when they're in the out-party." That means a revolving door. I don't like it any more than you—indeed, I like it less and write tedious posts about the need to adopt a system that relies more heavily on civil servants—but it again has little to do with Bob Rubin.

Grey's Anatomy
Grey's Anatomy Season 9 Finale: Is Arizona's Life in Jeopardy?
Grey's Anatomy is known for dark-and-twisty finales, and tomorrow night's Season 9 ender is no exception. Not only will it be dark physically — the power goes out after a superstorm hits Seattle — but emotionally, too.
We know a lot about Episode 24: "Perfect Storm," and unfortunately that intel is mostly bad. While there are happy occasions (Meredith giving birth to her son), they come with a slew of problems (delivering via C-section in the dark and the baby not initially crying). At the end of the day, we're putting our MerDer nervous feelings aside to worry mostly about Calzona. At the end of last week's penultimate episode, Arizona did the unthinkable, cheating on her wife with hot new doc Lauren, and we're still in shock.
We're not just worried about them breaking up — or perhaps even getting divorced, which was hinted at throughout the season — we're worried about one of their lives' hanging in the balance. The synopsis says "a doctor fights for their life," and though Calzona has been through their fair share of trauma, that doesn't mean they're safe; on Grey's, no one is safe.
If you think it seems far fetched, think again. Both Arizona and Callie will be at the front of the line saving lives as the superstorm sends busses flying (one of which sets on fire) and knocks the power out of the NICU, keeping babies from breathing. It's going to be a mess, and with that comes dangerous situations, and on-edge patients. When things get emotional for Calzona after their "talk," they could lose focus and make a fatal mistake.
While we've already voiced our concerns about Callie's fate, Arizona has a few other issues at hand — or at leg, rather. She has a higher chance of losing her balance in the rush of things or perhaps even dealing with residual PTSD issues. Plus, as seen at the end of last week's episode with Alex and Jo, a tree could come crashing in, someone could get electrocuted, or the storm could break windows. Basically, anything can happen, and with Arizona in a heightened emotional state, she's even more vulnerable.
Do you think Arizona will be OK in the finale, or should we be nervous? Sound off below!
The Season 9 finale of Grey's Anatomy airs Thursday, May 16, 2013 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.

Executive Summary
In 2003, Pikes Peak Community College (PPCC) published its first strategic plan for the period 2003-2007. In April 2011, the College began developing a new plan to coincide with hiring a new president and the development of new academic and facilities master plans. This new plan is closely aligned with the Colorado Community College System Strategic Plan, which governs PPCC and 12 other Colorado community colleges.
This planning revision for the College represents an important milestone. In the last five years, community colleges across the nation have grown exponentially, and student enrollment growth at PPCC was no exception. Additional changes in the region's economic environment, including the recent recession, have resulted in a renewed focus on economic development, including retention of the region's highly skilled workforce and the development of new skilled workers. These changes represent new opportunities and new challenges for PPCC.
The 2012 plan was developed by the PPCC Strategic Planning Task Force, comprised of members of the College's Leadership Council, supplemented by College employees with specific expertise. The Task Force reviewed the current mission and vision for the College, completed an environmental assessment by reviewing internal and external data and conducting stakeholder surveys. Once the environmental assessment was complete, the Task Force drafted strategic goals and major objectives; then, units across the College developed their ideas for possible tactics and measurements. In addition, the Task Force drafted a values statement and rewrote the PPCC Vision.
The process of refining tactics will continue as the new plan is reviewed and as implementation priorities and budgets are set. Outcomes measurements will be developed and progress reports will be disseminated regularly basis. It is anticipated that the plan will be reviewed annually, to make adjustments based on new information, mandates, or opportunities.
Students succeed at PPCC.
Our mission is to provide high quality, educational opportunities accessible to all, with a focus on student success and community needs, including:
- occupational programs for youth and adults in career and technical fields,
- two-year transfer educational programs to qualify students for admission to the junior year at other colleges and universities, and
- a broad range of personal, career, and technical education for adults.
We value a community built on learning, mutual respect, and diversity.
We Demonstrate These Values in the Following Ways:
- Teaching and Learning: Our primary commitment is to student learning, success, and achievement, while promoting open and universal access to an affordable education and affirming the importance of our facilities and learning environments.
- Mutual Respect and Accountability: Because people are our greatest resource, we foster a culture rooted in civility, mutual trust, and support, and hold ourselves accountable for our decisions and actions.
- Community and Diversity: We engage and support our community while embracing diversity, as it enriches lives and educational experiences.
Goals and Objectives
Expand and Strengthen Opportunities for Students to Learn and Succeed.
- Develop and implement a plan to strengthen student learning.
- Increase academic and student support to meet growing demand.
- Advance assessment of academic and supportive services programs and student learning.
Exercise Regional Leadership Through Transformative Partnerships and Educational Opportunities.
- Increase internship opportunities through business partnerships.
- Establish support for community and continuing education.
- Strategically increase PPCC involvement in community organizations.
- Increase fundraising by identifying and connecting with community supporters.
Improve Institutional Effectiveness by Integrating Data to Drive Budgeting and Decision Making.
- Evaluate and enhance the current advising system.
- Support and sustain an environment of evaluation to assure student workforce preparedness and/or transfer to four-year institutions.
- Develop a transparent budgeting process based on accessibility, student success, and operational excellence.
- Evaluate and develop systems for improving customer service across all areas of the College.
- Effectively use physical resources to meet the needs of student learning, student services, and College operations.
- Write grants to support innovative, research-based approaches and concepts.
Enhance and Ensure Effective, Consistent Communication to and From all PPCC Stakeholders.
- Create communication norms and values.
- Develop the PPCC story.
- Create audience-centric communication plans (with employees being the priority audience).
- Implement plans and annually measure progress.
Develop and Implement a Plan to Retain and Recruit a Highly Engaged and Diverse Workforce.
- Identify, recruit and increase the number of underrepresented employee populations.
- Create programs that increase the level of employee retention and engagement.
- Support divisions, departments, and offices with information for planning and decision-making in regards to workforce development.
Develop, Cultivate and Sustain a Supportive Culture Based on Mutual Respect and Civility.
- Provide training opportunities and conduct campus community dialogs so that all employees have a fundamental understanding of the purpose and benefit of maintaining a civil culture at work.
- Foster a culture where all employees are equally valued for their contribution to PPCC and student success.

A reader recently commented on GF Gourmet and asked about the possibility of Grand Forks getting a Hooters restaurant in the near future.
Well, I checked with the company and they neither confirmed nor denied that there were any plans to build one here.
"In regard to your inquiry, since building a restaurant and getting permits and licenses is a tough job, it is impossible to confirm or deny if we are coming to your city until the restaurant is well underway. By then, you'll be able to recognize that it's a Hooters," an emailed message said.
So may we be seeing a Hooters "neighborhood restaurant" anytime soon? Only time will tell, but I'll be on the lookout.

FESTIVALS: Linklater, Kevin Smith, and ILM? Film Neophytes Get Sneak Peak into Industry
by Mark Holcomb
(indieWIRE/9.19.00) --When a program billed as "The Next Generation of Film" features appearances by established directors like Kevin Smith and demonstrations by venerable effects giants like ILM, the title is clearly meant to be taken loosely.
But if the participants of this three-day series of panel discussions, interviews, and screenings weren't exactly of the next generation of film, they did offer sound advice to beginners on how to break into the film business, along with presentations of dazzling technological innovations and some choice dick-and-fart jokes courtesy of master of the form Smith (if you had to ask).
Aimed at high school and college students, "The Next Generation of Film" was hosted by The Film Society of Lincoln Center and The New York Times, and ran from Friday, September 8th through Sunday the 10th at the FSLC's Walter Reade Theater.
The program got off to an auspicious start Friday evening with "Richard Linklater: Home-Grown Auteur," a discussion with the Austin, Texas, cinema iconoclast. Linklater (whose "Dazed and Confused" was screened after the interview) and his current filmmaking partners Bob Sabiston and Tommy Pallotta talked with Times film critic A.O. Scott about their upcoming animated project, "Waking Life."
The film uses new digital rotoscoping software developed by Sabiston, in which artists "trace" over frames of live-action scenes on a computer to create animated footage. Sabiston demonstrated the process using a short video clip he shot that afternoon. This clip and Sabiston's earlier MTV spots (also screened) were impressive, but they hardly hinted at the depth and fluidity of the excerpts from "Waking Life." The film's animation -- which involves 30 artists working up to 250 hours for each minute of finished work -- is a mind-bending blend of computer precision and artistic abandon. Linklater accurately described it as like "a moving painting. Every gesture is so human."
Don't expect to see "Waking Life" anytime soon, though. "It's about 85% finished," the director said. "It'll be released early next year, hopefully." (More bad news for animators: Sabiston has no immediate plans for a commercial release of his software.)
The affable, boyish Linklater closed the evening by reflecting on his career as Austin's most influential film geek. "Most of the movies I've done [were shot] in Austin because it's convenient. You kind of have to be sneaky and a liar to make a movie at a studio." As for his status among adoring young filmmakers, Linklater said, "It's always flattering to me when someone says, 'I saw 'Slacker' and picked up a camera.'"
Which is precisely how Kevin Smith got started. At Saturday afternoon's "Kevin Smith: Is Nothing Sacred?" the "Clerks" director said, "I saw 'Slacker' at the Angelika and thought, 'This counts as a movie? I can do that.'" In a long and frequently hilarious interview conducted by Times film critic Stephen Holden -- who often seemed lost amid Smith's rapid-fire banter -- the irreverent director talked about his early career and the controversy surrounding last year's "Dogma."
"I wasn't really one of those cats who wanted to be a filmmaker his whole life," the self-deprecating Smith said. "I assumed that one day I'd own a deli if I was lucky." The flap over "Dogma," which he describes as his most personal and autobiographical film, took Smith by surprise. "My faith wasn't shaken by the controversy," he said. "I was a little shocked by the vehemence [of the protest]. Is there a movie you could take less seriously? There's a fucking rubber poop monster in it!" Ever the provocateur, Smith conceded that "I still love God, and I don't have anything against Christianity except fucking Christians."
Smith revealed that his next film would mark -- cue audience gasp -- the last appearance of the beloved Jay and Silent Bob. The director is also set to write and direct an adaptation of one of Gregory McDonald's popular "Fletch" novels, a series he credits as a writing influence.
If Linklater and Smith provided shining examples of D.I.Y. pluck, the panelists at Saturday night's "Breaking In: How to Find a Job in the Movie Business" represented other, more traditional avenues for would-be filmmakers. Moderated by Richard Peña, the panel included producer and Web activist Warrington Hudlin ("House Party"); documentary filmmaker Nicole Betancourt ("Before You Go"), also a Web activist; film and video editor Jennifer Wollan; screenwriter and Columbia film department chair Dan Kleinman; DGA Assistant Director Training Program coordinator Sandi Forman; and the Times's Holden.
Hudlin opened by reminding beginners, "You're getting into the business of 'no.' Build a psychological make-up of 'nine times down, one time up.'" Betancourt -- who, like Linklater and Smith, has no formal background in film -- emphasized the importance of "using what you already know," while Wollan stressed flexibility. "You may think you know what you want to do," she said, "but being open to other possibilities may lead you to something else." (Having started out as an accountant, she knows whereof she speaks.) All the panelists emphasized the importance of sustaining relationships. "It's a business that runs on recommendations," said Kleinman.
After the formal discussion, fully half the audience swarmed the stage to take Betancourt and Forman up on their offers of internship applications, prompting one FSLC wag to ask, "What is this -- Live Aid?"
The final event of the program, Sunday night's "ILM: The State of the Art," provided a neat antithesis to Linklater's opening presentation. With multi-million dollar budgets and hundreds of employees at their disposal, ILM's Jim Morris and Skywalker Sound's Glenn Kiser are more like the next generation of film's rich uncles. Still, these studio bigwigs were clearly proud of their work on films like "Saving Private Ryan" (which screened afterward) and the "Star Wars" series.
The duo, with moderator and Times Sunday Arts and Leisure editor John Rockwell, showed various film clips illustrating how their teams go about "creating something out of nothing." Kiser's demonstration of the sound layering process in "Ryan's" opening sequence was particularly impressive, though he cautioned, "very few filmmakers know how to use sound effectively, especially with the advent of faster and faster editing." He also presented a funny excerpt from the original "Star Wars" stripped of its sound effects and looped dialogue, proving once and for all that Darth Vader is an English guy who sounds like he's talking from the bottom of a garbage can.
With concepts like "haze geometry" and "particle systems," Morris's presentation was more technically complex and jargon-y. His demonstration of how computer-generated characters are created was a highlight, and he previewed a "secret" new animation process that makes these "synthespians" even more lifelike. Both men, however, seemed most proud of what Morris calls "invisible effects" used in movies like "Ryan." They also revealed the potential for these effects to be abused: several leading men, it seems, regularly demand digital enhancement of their receding hairlines and nasally voices. Come to think of it, wasn't Ted Danson in "Saving Private Ryan"?
Happily, the participants and sponsors of "The Next Generation of Film" -- who were all eager to chat with attendees before and after the shows -- refuted this reliance on technological glitz with old-fashioned, human accessibility.

New Iron Man 3 Poster Spotted As Fans Await New Trailer
By Sean O'Connell 2013-03-04 08:11:48 comments
This is going to be a very busy week for Marvel Studios and, specifically, its Iron Man 3 project.
A final trailer is scheduled to drop online on Tuesday, March 5. And a brand new poster has been photographed in a theater lobby and shared (via ComingSoon), which we have in lo-res, Instagram form. Expect a high-res version to appear online shortly now that this one-sheet is making the rounds.
For those interested in tracking it down, a bootlegged version of the new Iron Man 3 trailer has been circulating online this morning, but its from a Mexican movie theater and has been dubbed into Spanish. The quality, also, is poor and its advised that you simply wait for Tuesdays official trailer to arrive so that you can see all of the amazing sequences director Shane Black and his leading man, Robert Downey Jr., have in store.
I will say, having seen the bootlegged trailer, that the concept of escalation seems important for Marvel when it comes to this movie. Iron Man 3 has the distinct pleasure (and possible disadvantage) of being the first movie to come out after the massive spectacle that is The Avengers, and the studio might feel like theyd be taking a step backward is the standalone features that are part of the Phase II timeline were smaller in execution. Because Iron Man 3 has some massive tricks hiding up its iron sleeve, and were going to see them all in their entirety come May 3. Keep your eyes open for a better shot of this poster, and well have the trailer as soon as it drops on Tuesday.

Nevada City north to Callahan
Steering wheel fills the hands of a working man
Coeur D'alene floods the frame of my rearview mirror
Thirty days of rain the sun just won't shine
She gonna heal your wounds with the hands of time
And I know she gonna see you through it all
And I know it's gonna be a Long Winter
Half a child he's half a man
With a badge on his chest and a gun in his hand
There's no shame to your card game with the devil's dealer boy
Ten years of the same can she leave it all behind
Rollin in the rough far too long now darlin' it's time you let it shine
And I know we all built to fall
And I know it's gonna be a Long Winter

Oh, man, what a movie!
Perfect on every sense. Great cast, with terrific Bogart and Bacall. Complex and interesting plot and smart dialogues. Only "funny" thing, if we want to say something, is the "perception" of the women roles in the movie. They are strangely all sexy and attracted to and tempting Philip Marlow.

BOJ holds first policy meeting under new governor
TOKYO Japan's central bank is holding its first policy meeting under a new governor amid expectations of fresh moves to ease monetary policy and spur a recovery in the world's third-largest economy.
Haruhiko Kuroda took the helm at the Bank of Japan on March 19, vowing to do whatever necessary to break Japan's economy out of deflation and attain a 2 percent inflation target.
It is unclear whether the central bank meeting Wednesday and Thursday will yield fresh policy moves or if they might come in a second policy meeting later this month, once parliament gives final confirmation of Kuroda's appointment.
Acting government spokesman Hiroshige Seko said the government would leave the mechanics of how to "reflate" the economy up to the BOJ.
"Regarding the specific instruments chosen by the BOJ, we would like to respect their independence," Seko said in a routine briefing.
But Kuroda faces strong pressure to make headway in ending the trend toward flat or lower prices that Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's administration says is discouraging companies from investing and hiring workers.
"I hope they will have a drastic regime change and invite aggressive monetary easing," Kozo Yamamoto, a lawmaker in Abe's circle of economic advisers. Attaining a 2 percent inflation rate within the next several years may be difficult, he acknowledged.
"That's why we need very, very drastic action," Yamamoto told a gathering of executives Wednesday at the American Chamber of Commerce.
Among various options, the BOJ could increase its asset purchases sooner than earlier promised. It could extend maturities on the government bonds it buys to five or 10 years, rather than the current limit of three years. It also could consider buying higher-risk assets, instead of just government bonds.
In the final quarter of 2012, the economy was on the cusp of recovery, recent data show. A quarterly central bank survey released Monday, known as the "tankan," showed business sentiment improving for the first time in nine months, though the gains were weaker than expected.
But so far, the consumer price index has not budged, despite daily newspaper reports of plans for increases in electricity rates, food prices and other daily necessities. The bank's survey showed companies are still planning to reduce investments in the coming year, contrary to expectations.
Kuroda and Abe already are battling skepticism over whether the government's strategy will spur enough demand to get the economy back on track, given the reluctance of companies to invest or raise wages. Expectations of price increases will only spur people to spend more money if they can afford to, Kazuhiro Haraguchi, a member of the opposition Democratic Party of Japan, contended during a parliamentary session Tuesday.
"If prices rise and wages do not, that is not desirable," Kuroda responded without elaborating.
Abe has already delivered on one of the three main elements of his economic strategy - boosting public spending, especially on public works projects. Easing monetary policy, another key item on his agenda, is a work in progress. As for the third, the LDP and Japan's powerful bureaucrats are still thrashing out details of reforms to sustain growth in the long run.
Bowing to government pressure, the central bank, then under Kuroda's predecessor Masaaki Shirakawa, committed to the 2 percent inflation target and to increasing asset purchases to help boost the amount of funds in circulation. According to Yamamoto, still more must be done.
An economist and former Finance Ministry official, Yamamoto said he believes Japan's monetary base - the amount of funds in circulation - must be doubled to attain the pace of growth needed.
He downplayed worries that such a strategy could spur hyperinflation, saying the central bank would quickly move to staunch any tendency by tightening monetary policy.

Jackson, Miss.
A federal judge has sentenced a Mississippi man to six months in prison for food stamp fraud.
Stanley Jones was charged with lying on food stamp applications in 2008 by representing that nobody in his household had been convicted of a drug-related felony since 1996.
Anyone convicted of a drug related felony after August 22, 1996, is prohibited from receiving benefits under the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, commonly known as food stamps.
Jones pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court in Jackson in April.
U.S. District Judge Carlton Reeves sentenced Jones to the prison term, three years on supervised release and ordered him to pay restitution of $8,282.
Court records say the case originated in Jackson.

Pulsar is a revolutionary third generation Intense Pulsed Light system that has been clinically proven to permanently reduce hair growth. The procedure quickly and efficiently eliminates hair from all parts of the body and face and is suitable for virtually all hair and skin types, including dark-skinned clients.
Pulsar uses the energy from a light source, which is taken up by the pigments in the skin, hair and blood vessels. The hair is removed by using the light to generate heat in in the melanin in the hair, which is transferred to the hair follicle (root) to destroy it. Unlike electroysis the Pulsar treatment is non-invasive with no down-time or after effects and is relatively pain-free with some clients experiencing only a slight tingly sensation.

Unfancy Chemex Brewing Video
Another poor quality brewing video, with a few good tips. The only revelation here is to use the new Bonmac "pointy tip style" filters with the Chemex. The are made for the Hario type brewer and are a little short in the Chemex, but they leave much less "paper taste" in the cup. -Tom Sorry the video bleeds over the edge on the right. It's the smallest I can make, for some reason. Best to click on the video, go to youtube/sweetmarias and watch in HD.

Strange requests the help desk gets
Your IT team is no doubt accustomed to being called on to get users out of all kinds of pickles, but has it been asked to fix a toilet lately? Believe it or not, some help desk somewhere received this request, according to a survey of more than 1,400 CIOs in the United States.
The survey, sponsored by Robert Half Technology, found that help desks tend to get requests for assistance with a wide range of matters outside of the realm of IT. For IT pros, this means exercising patience and understanding when their skill set does not match the request.
Employees everywhere seem to think of IT pros as the go-to fix-it folks, endowed with far-reaching powers to make anything and everything work. The survey revealed that they've been called on to repair microwave ovens, vending machines, washing machines, desk chairs and car cup holders.
A little bit closer to home, one user called the help desk to find out how to clean cat hair out of a computer fan, and another called to have a sesame seed removed from a keyboard. Perhaps the saddest was the caller who asked, "Can you come over and plug in this cord for me?"
The help desk also seems to be widely viewed as a general information desk. CIOs reported requests for recommendations on finding a dry cleaner, pirating software and locating a video of Elvis Presley online.
One help desk call received far too often: "I dropped my phone in the toilet. What should I do?"

Governor Carcieri's final budget address was long on rhetoric and short on specifics, which is a disappointment. The situation requires less words and more concrete action steps to get our dismal economy going again. I appreciate the Governor's commitment in principle to holding the line on tax increases; unfortunately, principles will be swept aside by a legislature that is less averse to tax hikes and is the final decider on how to solve a looming $400 million budget deficit. The Governor also called for cities and towns to cut salaries, as has occurred with state workers, but that's a community by community decision and, again, the Governor can only suggest. The major municipalities are attempting just that but they're hemmed in by contracts; some municipal unions are going along, as in Pawtucket and Cranston, but progress along that front will be uneven. Appeals to the General Assembly for relief will be met with more sympathy from legislators who, of course, represent those very same communities.
The centrality of the General Assembly in all this will be demonstrated by the way they handle the first crisis on their plate: the current operating budget deficit of some $200 million. If they reject the Governor's requests to local cut aid, which I expect them to do, then the next question will be what taxes will they be willing to raise.
The state's scorecard for the last seven years reveals a $2.4 billion increase in state spending during a time in which 32,400 jobs were lost and the state's "offical" jobless rate climbed by 7.6 percent. (And it has only been during the past two years that the state has slimmed its workforce down a bit.) Clearly, the state has not managed its spending well at all, and state spending continues to remain at the heart of its fiscal troubles.

The European Union offered qualified support Monday, saying it considered Palestinian reconciliation and elections as important steps toward an eventual Israeli-Palestinian peace deal.
The EU, one of the major financial backers of the Palestinian Authority, "looks forward to continuing its support," provided the new Palestinian government is committed to nonviolence, recognizes Israel and supports a negotiated solution to the Mideast conflict, said Michael Mann, a spokesman for EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton.
Abbas backs those requirements, while Hamas rejects them.

WBS Penguins teaming up with Beads of Courage
WILKES-BARRE TWP. - It's hard to imagine a sight more emotionally powerful - heart-breaking and inspirational at the same time - than a 10-year-old girl with a 15-foot string of beads in her hands.
Captain Joey Mormina and his wife Anne were part of a contingent of Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins players and their wives and girlfriends who had that experience on a recent trip to Geisinger Janet Weis Children's Hospital in Danville.
They met patients involved with Beads of Courage, a program that works with children fighting serious illnesses. Kids receive a bead for each milestone in their treatment - one for a chemotherapy session, one for having blood taken, one for a spinal tap, one for spending a night away from their families.
The beads help kids track and celebrate their progress while also reminding them that if they've made it through one procedure, and have the bead to prove it, they can make it through the next procedure as well.
"It was pretty amazing to see kids with a tremendous amount of courage and a will to live," Mormina said. "We complain about a lot of things at our house and in daily life. When you see those kids, it really puts things in perspective to see how they approach every day."
Penguins players will wear two beads on a safety pin during warm-ups before Saturday's home game with Albany. Players will keep one of the beads as a memento and deliver the other to program participants with a note of encouragement.

Saturday, June 11, 2016
Newmanstown, PA - Jared Esh rocked the house on Saturday, winning his first 600cc Micro-Sprint feature of the season at Lanco's Clyde Martin Memorial Speedway.
Esh, the son of 410 Sprint Car racer Doug Esh, captured the Microracing.com 25-lap main event in the final tune up for the July 6 opener of Kioti Tractors PA 600 Speedweek.
Joining the Lancaster, Pa. wheel-twister in Saturday's winner's circle were Mike Rutherford (270cc), Jesse Maurer (125cc), and Jason Swavely (Sportsman). The 250cc Four-Stroke feature was rained out and will be made up on a date to be announced.
Kunkletown's Randy Smith, a staunch supporter of the Slingshots by Tobias since its creation in 1999, won the Slide at the Clyde, a 35-lap contest for the Slingshots that offered a large payout and awarded National Tour points. It was the first National Tour event ever held for the Slingshots at Clyde Martin, and only the second Lanco appearance in the division's history.
The path to 600cc victory lane was filled with all sorts of potholes for Jared Esh; he had to avoid a slowing Mike Dicely with four laps complete, as Dicely's No. 44 suddenly dropped off the pace while leading. While rolling around the track under yellow for Dicely's stop, the entire facility suddenly went dark. Luckily, there were no incidents due to the power interruption and all of the cars, guided by headlights from the four-wheeled quads that serve as push and tow vehicles, were able to navigate their way off the track.
After a delay of approximately 30 minutes, the lights were back on and racing resumed. Jered Hook was now the leader, with fourth-starter Jared Esh on his tail.
Esh rolled the top in turns one and two, blasting around Hook to snatch the top spot as they accelerated onto the backstretch on lap five.
Jared survived a number of additional caution periods to score the timely victory, as a contingent of family members, including his dad, were on hand to help celebrate the win.
Esh also earned the Weld Racing Fast Lap of the Feature Award, as he recorded the quickest trip around the oval during the main event. His quick lap was timed in 10.757-seconds.
Jered Hook, bidding for his second triumph of the year, was forced to settle for runner-up honors with Chris Gerhart, C.J. Tracy, and Heath Hehnly completing the top five.
Hehnly's effort, along with a sixth-place finish for Tyler Esh, kept the standings tight at the top of the point chart in the battle for the Mark Millwright & Rigging 600cc Championship.
Tyler Esh, Dicely, and Hehnly were victorious in heat race action for the 23-car field of 600cc Micros.
With the calendar about to flip to the month of July, it's hard to believe that Mike Rutherford had been shut out of Clyde Martin's victory lane in 270cc competition this season. On Saturday night, Rutherford took care of that little blip on the radar, roaring from 15th on the starting grid to grab third from Jesse Maurer on the eleventh revolution around the clay.
With Dave Grube setting the pace, second-place Brian Sholley attempted to dive under the leader entering turn one. Sholley's right-front wheel made ever-so-slight contact with Grube's left-rear, but it was enough to send Sholley spinning. The cars behind the lead duo had to scramble to avoid contact, and were successful in doing so.
That put Rutherford, the Lititz resident, on Grube's back bumper for the restart. With seven to go, Rutherford slipped past Grube in one and two, assuming command of the race and going on to take his first Clyde Martin checkered of the season in the 270cc Class.
Grube got hung up behind a lapped car in the final laps of the Microracing.com 25-lapper for the 270cc Micros, allowing Jesse Maurer to sneak past him and finish second to Rutherford.
Grube ended up third, with last week's winner, Bradley Brown, crossing the stripe in fourth and Heath Hehnly earning fifth-place money.
Rutherford's triumph, combined with Hehnly's fifth-place finish, tightened the 270cc Mark Millwright & Rigging point standings even more as the two veteran drivers remain in the top two positions in the chase for the 2013 championship.
With 31 of the 270cc racers on hand, heat race victories went to Barry Shearer, Brown, and Eric Falini. The consolation winner was Danny Lane Jr.
The winter months of 2012-2013 saw a successful campaign waged by young Slingshot driver Danny Buccafusca. His cause was simple...he and his fellow Slingers desperately wanted to present a high-paying Tour Race on Clyde Martin's wide, banked oval.
Buccafusca convinced Lanco officials that it could work, and the date was set. The inaugural Slide at the Clyde was slated for June 29, 2013 and Buccafusca made certain that it would be a lucrative event for the Slingshot competitors as he solicited sponsorship from numerous businesses and individuals.
On Saturday, he was rewarded for his efforts as 35 Slingshot teams, including Buccafusca himself, signed in for competition.
Buccafusca, by the way, just completed eighth-grade in his hometown of Rockaway, NJ. He may be young, but, with four wins already this season and now a hugely successful promotional venture under his belt, he is proving to be very savvy behind the wheel and on the business end of the sport.
The race's promoter may have youth on his side, but it was a grizzled veteran of dirt track activity who showed the field how to get the job done in the 35-lap Slide at the Clyde on Saturday.
Randy Smith, former dirt Modified driver who's been a Slingshot dealer since the division came into existence, led all the way after his victory in the Cash Dash enabled him to start on the pole of the main event.
Two-time and defending National Slingshot Champion Brett Bieber chased Smith for most of the race, but the Oley, Pa. driver had to be content with second place cash when it was over.
Bieber did shove the nose of his No. 32 under Smith on a restart with 13 laps remaining, pulling even as they charged down the backstretch and into turns three and four. Smith, running just a bit higher through the corner, pulled ahead of Bieber as the duo exited turn four and gassed their mounts down the home chute.
Cody Kline, the 2009 National Slingshot Champion, motored into third just before the halfway point and began to pressure Bieber for the runner-up slot. Unfortunately for Kline, a broken front end forced him to the sidelines with 22 circuits complete.
Buccafusca made things exciting by running a higher line than anyone else, and his battle for fifth place with Simon Egan was a crowd-pleaser until mechanical ills popped up on Buccafusca's No. 43 with four to go. He was a DNF in the race, but still managed a big smile afterward when talking about the successful first-time event that he coordinated.
Smith flew to the $700 victory over Bieber, with John Bockhorn steadily maneuvering his way to a third-place finish. Egan wound up fourth and Lanco regular Kory Merkey finished fifth.
"I'm glad it wasn't 40 laps," laughed Smith in victory lane who admitted, as did many of the other competitors, that he was worn out after the fast paced and hard fought 35-lapper. "I want to thank the little girl who pulled the number one pill for me for the Dash; that was the key tonight. And thanks to everyone here at Lanco; it's my first time here - ever - and this is a first class and well run facility," stated the winner, who also promotes the Hamlin Speedway with his wife, Denise.
The Slingshots competed in a dual heat race format on Saturday. Heat winners included Larry Raifsnider, Louden Reimert, Kline, Merkey, Bockhorn, Dylan Hoch, B. Bieber, and Chris Kurtz. The Dash went to Smith and Hoch captured the B-Main.
After taking a week off on June 22nd, Jason Swavely came back hungry on Saturday. The Douglassville, Pa. resident satisfied his competitive appetite by claiming his fourth win of the year in the Sportsman Class.
Swavely, the two-time and defending Sportsman point champ, took the initial green from the outside of row five. He charged into third by the time four laps were scored, then wrestled second away from rookie Anthony Yerger on the sixth trip around the clay.
Leader Curtis R. Miller fell victim to Swavely's attack on the ninth tour, as Swavely ducked under Miller's No. 7R on the backchute, then edged ahead on the homestretch after a side-by-side journey through three and four.
Swavely won by a comfortable margin over a returning Ken Miller. Matt Abers ran a strong third, and first year driver Jas Hehnly notched his best finish with a fourth-place effort. Charles Hellinger crossed the line in fifth when the checkered flag waved over the field.
Swavely and Ken Miller won the two heat races contested by the 18 Sportsman Micro-Sprints.
The 125cc Micros managed to complete 17 of the scheduled 25 laps in their main event before a slight drizzle intensified into steady rain, forcing officials to stop the race and declare it official.
Jesse Maurer started sixth, but knew he needed to get to the front quickly in case the weather became a factor. Driving Gary Gorski's Cocalico Plumbing & Heating No. 21, the Mount Joy Outlaw sliced his way to second in the first couple of trips around the speedway.
Maurer raced to the inside of leader Dylan Adams in turn two, then launched onto the backstretch ahead of Adams to take command on lap ten.
Dave Grube, the tenth-place starter, climbed through traffic and stole the runner-up spot from Adams with ten to go. Grube began his pursuit of Maurer, but Mother Nature had other ideas, as the rainfall increased and the yellow was thrown with 17 tours in the books. After some revolutions under caution to see if the precipitation would cease, officials ordered the cars off the track. It wasn't long before the decision was made to declare the race complete.
Maurer picked up his fourth triumph of the season in the 125cc Class, and Grube finished as the runner-up for the second week in a row. Adams and rookie Chase Gutshall registered their best finishes to date by placing third and fourth. Chip Geib completed the top five when the race was stopped.
A 17-car field of 125cc racers entered the program, and heat race victories were claimed by Kory Merkey and Maurer.
The feature race for the 250cc Four-Strokes, which was to be the nightcap of the evening's program, was rained out and will be made up in the near future.
The four winning Micro-Sprint drivers received gift certificates as part of the season long K1 Race Gear Proven Performance Program presented by Nouse Signs & Graphics. The gift certificates can be used in the purchase of a two or three-layered custom K1 Race Gear custom racing suit designed by Kevin Nouse.
Racing returns to Lanco's Clyde Martin Memorial Speedway in a big way this Saturday, as Kioti Tractors PA 600 Speedweek kicks off with the biggest winner's payoff of the five-race miniseries. The winner of the 40-lap A-Main will receive $2,500, and a hefty purse will be paid to all of the 24 starters as the seventh annual 600 Speedweek begins in grand style.
Joining the 600's on this week's agenda is the third annual Hyper Racing 270 Clash at the Clyde, boasting a $1,050 payday for the winner if 40 or more cars enter the event. A lucrative payout awaits the 270cc competitors (dependent on car count; the total purse is posted at www.lancomicrosprint.com) as they take part in a 30-lap main event.
Racing begins at 7 p.m. this Saturday. The event carries a Sunday, July 7 rain date.

As I was flying out of DMI last night, I caught Seneca Wallace standing in line at the security checkpoint. I was late for my flight so I couldn't talk to him, anyone know what he was in town for?
Hopefully to teach Brett Meyer how to break a tackle.
I'm pretty sure he was in Gowrie for a 3 on 3 basketball tournament over the past few days as well!

Amen. I thought it was just me that noticed he went down too easily. Bret has a tendancy to scoot always to the right.
Let Prohm's Posse Ride: Hallice, Brady, Stu, Lard, Naz, Deonte, Monte, Matt, Simeon, Jordan, and Babb.
I saw him at Jack Trice under the lights, all by himself reinacting "the run." It was truly an amazing sight. I wish you all could have seen it.
i see it every night when i close my eyes
I see it every nite when I log onto YouTube

Hopefully more than that, how about being able to see the field better while scrambling? Wallace was able to thread passes on the run while throwing across his body so well, we really were lucky to have a talent like him.

Just wish Seattle would put him on the field-----anywhere!! He is to good a talent not be playing somewhere.
... what about Wagners snot-blockin'-on-the-face-mask- block....
I am from the Fort Dodge area. A friend of mine lives in Gowrie and said that Wallace dates a girl from there that he has known since ISU. He said he has been there for several days. He hasn't talked to him since he is a Clone hater but stated those that have talked to him said he is very nice and down to earth.

AMEN!!! I love Seneca's run and he did a helluva in it, but people always forget the blockers and I will never forgot Wags for that HUGE f'n hit when us Staters' reference that play to one another.

For Healthcare Professionals
Applies to amiloride / hydrochlorothiazide: oral tablet
Cases of severe hyperkalemia associated with paralysis, cardiac arrhythmias, and even death have been reported.
Patients who are at particular risk for thiazide-induced hyponatremia include the elderly, frail women, and those with hypovolemia or who are in the postoperative state. In the latter two cases, antidiuretic hormone levels tend to be elevated, which may contribute to the development of hyponatremia.
Hyperkalemia is more likely in patients with underlying renal dysfunction.[Ref]
Metabolic side effects are common. Hyperkalemia occurs in 1% to 2% of patients. Hyperkalemia is more likely in women, patients with diabetes (even without signs of diabetic nephropathy), and patients with renal insufficiency. Hyponatremia may occur in up to 20% of patients.
Increases in serum uric acid, total cholesterol, and total triglycerides have been associated with the use of HCTZ. This may be important in some patients at risk for or who have a history of gout or coronary artery disease.[Ref]
A 50-year-old woman with a history of congestive heart failure developed acute noncardiogenic pulmonary edema within 10 minutes after ingesting HCTZ-amiloride. Inadvertent rechallenge resulted in a recurrence. Subsequent selective skin patch testing revealed an allergy to HCTZ and not to amiloride.[Ref]
Hypersensitivity reactions to HCTZ-amiloride are rare. A case of allergic pneumonitis and noncardiogenic pulmonary edema has been associated with the use of this drug. Acute pulmonary edema, interstitial cystitis, interstitial nephritis, and anaphylaxis have been associated with the use of HCTZ.[Ref]
Genitourinary problems include rare complaints of impotence among male patients. Polyuria and urinary frequency have been reported in less than 1% of patients.[Ref]
Gastrointestinal side effects are unusual. Diarrhea, nausea, constipation, anorexia, and general abdominal pain occur in less than 5% of patients.[Ref]
Rare instances of pancreatitis and acute cholecystitis have been associated with the use of HCTZ.[Ref]
Nervous system
Nervous system side effects occur in less than 3% of patients. They include headache, weakness, and fatigue.[Ref]
Cardiovascular side effects are mainly limited to the increased risk of hyperkalemia-induced arrhythmias in patients at risk for arrhythmias. Angina pectoris, arrhythmias, and orthostatic hypotension have been reported in less than 1% of patients.[Ref]
Dermatologic side effects associated with hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) include isolated cases of subacute cutaneous lupus, erythema annular centrifugum, and acute eczematous dermatitis. Thiazides may induce phototoxic dermatitis.[Ref]
A 74-year-old woman developed acute renal failure and granulomatous interstitial nephritis during amiloride-HCTZ therapy. Her renal function slightly improved after stopping the drug and after 20 months of oral steroid therapy.[Ref]
New or worsened renal insufficiency has rarely been associated with each component of this drug. Granulomatous interstitial nephritis has been associated with amiloride-HCTZ.[Ref]
