Haren's strikeout stuff not enough as Nats fall to Phils
Right-hander takes no-decision despite fanning 10 over six innings
WASHINGTON -- Reliever Drew Storen had a tough time getting the third out in the eighth inning, and it proved costly as the Phillies defeated the Nationals, 5-3, at Nationals Park on Saturday night.
The score was tied at 3 when Philadelphia scored two runs off Storen in the eighth. With two outs, Delmon Young singled past first baseman Adam LaRoche down the right-field line. Michael Young scored from first base to give Philadelphia a one-run lead.
Domonic Brown followed with a double to right-center field, scoring pinch-runner Michael Martinez.
Storen has been inconsistent all year. His ERA is at 5.21. Manager Davey Johnson seems to think that Storen is having problems with his location. But Johnson gave the impression that he is not going to give up on Storen.
"I've got to have him. He is important to our bullpen," Johnson said about Storen. "It's a situation where I count on him to do it. At times, he has been relying on stuff and throwing the ball hard. He has a good hard breaking ball. Tonight, he threw a couple of good changeups to [Ryan] Howard -- a back-door breaking ball. But it's just location. You can get by on stuff for just a little while. You have to make good pitches."
Storen didn't have any excuses for his disappointing outing. He acknowledged that he didn't make good pitches and the ball found holes.
"If you leave it up in the zone, guys are going to hit it," Storen said.
Before this year, Storen spent most of his Major League career as a closer. This season, with the acquisition of Rafael Soriano, Storen has been relegated to the setup role and Johnson is still trying to figure out the roles for almost every reliever in Washington's bullpen. Asked if it's still a challenge figuring out his role in the bullpen, Storen said, "It's doesn't matter. I'm going out there pitching. It doesn't change my job if we are up by 100. I still need to make pitches, not leave balls up in the zone."
Right-hander Dan Haren had one of his best games as a member of the Nationals. It was the antithesis of his last outing against the Padres, in which he allowed seven runs in five innings. On Saturday night, Haren ended up with his first no-decision of the season. He struck out a season-high 10 batters in six innings and allowed three runs on four hits.
Haren allowed two of the three runs in the second inning on back-to-back home runs by Brown and Erik Kratz. Haren allowed the third run three innings later, when pitcher Jonathan Pettibone scored on a double by Jimmy Rollins.
"I was rolling there early and they came up aggressive. Obviously, two first-pitch homers," Haren said. "I felt great. The game against the Padres, my arm felt heavy. It felt like I was throwing a softball. I just didn't throw good. … Stuff-wise, today, is about as good as I've had all year. I just made a couple of mistakes. If I'm throwing like I am tonight, we'll be good."
Haren's counterpart, Pettibone, lasted six innings and allowed three runs on nine hits. LaRoche and Denard Span were the offensive forces against Pettibone. With the Phillies ahead, 2-0, LaRoche singled to right center-field, scoring Span, in the third.
Washington tied the score at 2 an inning later. With one out, Steve Lombardozzi reached first on an infield single and advanced to second on an error by Rollins at shortstop. Two batters later, Span singled to right, scoring Lombardozzi.
After the Phillies went ahead in the fifth inning on Rollins' double, the Nats tied the score at 3 in the bottom of the inning on a home run by LaRoche, his eighth of the season. LaRoche has been one of Washington's most consistent hitters during the month of May, going 25-for-77 (.325) with five home runs and 15 RBIs.
"We wobbled a little bit, but we gained composure," Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said. "It was interesting. Actually, we ended up doing a good job. We got guys out when we were supposed to. That's what counts."

AS the football world mourns his passing, chairman Haydon Munslow has paid tribute to Kendal Town club president Sir Tom Finney who died aged 91.
Sir Tom appeared at three World Cup finals and is widely regarded to be one of the greatest-ever players to represent England, winning 76 caps and scoring 30 goals.
An iconic footballer of the post-war years, he was a one-club man who made 473 appearances for Preston North End between 1946 and 1960, scoring 210 goals.
After his illustrious playing career and subsequent retirement he was invited to become Kendal Town's president, an offer he duly accepted.
"We were all deeply saddened by the news," said Munslow.
"Like everybody has always said he was an absolute gentleman and even as the years went by someone who had a great grasp of the game.
"He would be one of the best football players in any era and those who played with him or watched him all have the highest regard for his skills and sportsmanship.
"He had a long association with us here at Kendal Town. After his retirement he came to a number of social events and was asked to fulfil the role of president which he did.
"He visited us on a number of occasions over the years and when that was no longer possible he always showed a great interest."
After serving in the British Army during World War Two, Sir Tom went on to star for the Three Lions and occupies joint-sixth position on the all-time England goalscoring list.
He won the Second Division title in 1950-1, a League Championship runners-up medal in 1953 and 1958 as well as an FA Cup runners-up medal in 1954.
Despite missing out on the game's major prizes, Sir Tom became the first man to be voted 'Footballer of the Year' twice before finishing his playing career in 1960.
He was awarded the OBE in 1961 and the CBE in 1992 before being included in the Queen's New Years Honours list in 1998 and knighted at Buckingham Palace.
Kendal Town captain Warren Beattie took advantage of Saturday's postponement and joined 13,440 fans to say their farewells during Preston's clash with Leyton Orient.
"I went to the game and paid my respects to Sir Tom, went to his statue and the tribute to him was unbelievable," he said.
"People from all over the country were there and it just goes to show how much of a legend he was, not only to Preston but England as well.
"He is going to be a great loss to everyone associated with football."
Earlier in his career, Beattie played for Preston North End and captained the Lilywhites' reserve team, holding fond memories of the man dubbed 'the Preston Plumber' – a reference to his second profession.
"He used to come to the training ground a lot and always had time for the young lads," he added. "Preston North End was his life, he couldn't stay away.
"When I signed my professional contract he was in the office and he just said 'Warren, don't have any regrets'. Even just a few words from someone like him meant a lot.
"I also met him a couple of times at Kendal and it goes to show what sort of guy he was by helping a club like Kendal Town."
While there is the suggestion that Sir Tom once had an unsuccessful trial with Netherfield AFC, he was certainly a regular visitor to the club in the late 1930s.
He often travelled to watch his elder brother Joe turn out for the town's team while on at least one occasion he showcased his skills on the Parkside Road pitch.
On October 28 1965, Sir Tom brought an all-star XI to play Netherfield AFC in a bid to raise funds for Kendal Sea Cadets.
Several household names took to the field that night including England legends Nat Lofthouse and Jackie Milburn, a match by refereed by Kendal's Walter Johnson – a Football League official for 15 years.
"It was an honour to referee the match in my home town and to my knowledge that was the only time he played on Parkside Road," said Johnson.
"He was held in such high esteem and was a very unassuming man. He was a genius and with it a perfect gentleman.
"I recall the match was played under very poor floodlights and all these top international forwards were playing towards the banking where the clubhouse now is.
"At half-time there was a knock on my door and it was a police officer who asked if the teams could play the same way in the second-half.
"He was concerned the crowds who wanted to see these players could not be contained at the other end of the ground."
Sir Tom has left a lasting impression on many football fans, including several Kendalians who routinely walked the modern day 'Sir Tom Finney Way' to watch their hero.
"Every other Saturday in the 1950s, 40 or so of us departed Kendal for Deepdale with the prospect of watching Sir Tom," said one unnamed Kendal resident.
"He was one of the best, if not the best, footballers produced by this country – he had everything and was a joy to watch.
"Above all he was a true sportsman, never retaliating despite some horrendous tackling and was never yellow or red carded.
"Occasionally when injured this was played down because of the effect on the attendance.
"When the announcement came of a change at number seven there was always a loud groan of disappointment."
A football legend, there is little doubt Sir Tom will be deeply missed.

Angels' Pujols sent home for tests
Angels slugger Albert Pujols returned to Los Angeles on Saturday morning for further testing on his ailing left foot.
"This is sorer than anything he's dealt with," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. "We'll just see what happens."
Scioscia would not address if Pujols could miss the rest of the season, or at the least, go on the disabled list.
"He's sore," Scioscia said. "We'll see what's going on."
Pujols has been dealing with plantar fasciitis all season. He re-injured his foot running to first base after singling in the ninth inning on Friday night.
Pujols has served as the Angels' designated hitter for most of the year. He is hitting .258 with 17 home runs and 64 RBIs.

For your prime-time viewing pleasure, the NFL presents Tennessee at Jacksonville, with five wins and 13 losses between them.
Sure. Every team gets a chance to show off on Thursday night. And, believe it or not, both the Titans (2-7) and Jaguars (3-6) have some talent worth watching.
For Tennessee, of course, it's Marcus Mariota, who when healthy is having a pretty decent season. He's thrown 13 touchdown passes, a team record for a rookie, and six interceptions, and has a 98.3 passer rating, ninth in the league, ahead of Ben Roethlisberger and both Mannings.
Ten of those TDs and no picks have come on the road.
"I just play my game, play myself," Mariota said. "I don't treat it any different than any other game. It is fun playing in a hostile environment. Any competitive athlete would tell you there's a satisfaction when you are able to compete to the best of your ability on the road."
The Jaguars are developing a nice passing game with Blake Bortles throwing to Allen Hurns and Allen Robinson. If high-priced tight end Julius Thomas begins contributing regularly, they could become outright dangerous.
Jacksonville (No. 27 in AP Pro32) is a 3-point favorite over Tennessee (No. 31). The Jaguars won at Baltimore, but have taken consecutive victories just once since December 2010.

Great jeans great fit look hot.
Great Pair Of Jeans 01-19-2017
My son is incredibly tall and skinny for his age and so it's near impossible to find pants that fit and these are GREAT!!!!! He goes to a school where uniforms are a requirement and so he was blowing through black pants by busting the knees out of them daily. I bought these in black and the school hasn't said anything to me about them and I am not buying pants that don't fit good every other day. I will continue to purchase these thanks.
stylish 01-05-2017
Loved the style and color. Fit my son perfectly.
Super Jeans For Trim Boys 07-31-2016
These are the only jeans my son will wear and he wears them everyday! He is nearly twelve and as tall as his peers but a lean swimmer. He likes the skinny cut and he can wear 24 (10 slim) and they are just long enough. These would not work for an average build boy, but for the slight and stylish guy they are perfect.

I don't see why. I wouldn't buy something that ugly over a MacBook Air if it was the last computer on earth.
When I was at college I temped at a warranty repair centre. All I ever done was replace parts in Assus'es. The funniest thing was most of them would come in (even brand new ones) and pretty much all of them would have screws missing from the backplate. If you have an Asus, check the screws in the back. I bet there is at least 4 missing!
My Vaio > macbook...nuff said!
As for you comment about "simpletons" throwing their money on an ipad instead DOES make it a good product. The reason? Any business man will tell you a product that sell best is a good product. Plain and simple. If it was such a bad product, people wouldn't buy them. That's all there is to it.
There shouldn't be any debate. There really isn't a "better" one. It's your preference. If you like something more you're going to favor it more. Apple products and Windows-based products compete, yes, but neither is better than the other. They have their own pros, cons, and pricing doesn't necessarily reflect those factors.I went Mac and never looked back. That's just me. If you don't like it, don't use it. If you have to sit there and justify why PC is better or why Mac is better, you're just wasting your breath. There are always going to be people who don't like what you like, and vice versa.Regarding the article, I wouldn't buy an Ultrabook. My reasoning being that I honestly like OS X better than Windows. I just don't see myself buying an Ultrabook and trying to load OSX onto it. (I'm sure someone will want to debate this statement, but regardless it's my preference. Your preference is yours, I won't debate it.)
In fact i did a little more research, and the ONLY thing has better on it is the processor, the fact it's touch screen, and a secondary camera. The resolution is almost the same. The MBA has twice as much RAM, same size Harddrive. Same weight essentially, give a few grams, when compared to the Transformer Prime with dock. Two USB vs one on the Prime, and a thunderbolt port. Battery specs haven't been announced for the Prime, or atleast i can't find them. But it'll probably be close to the same if not worse than the MBA. And the price difference is only $150. Your argument was actually so invalid, that I almost feel sorry for you. Please, next time you dis apple, do your homework. That is all.
A MBA to you may be a waste of money, but hey maybe somebody thinks an Ultrabook is a waste of money. The reason may not be obvious or common, but people have their reasons, as do you. But there isn't a need to bash on a product just bc you don't prefer it. On a side note, Apple is quite successful for producing crummy products.
Sometimes you can compare, but personal preference will always get in the way.
doesn't mean its a good product, just means people are that dumb or desperate.

SEC's Top 25 players: No. 23 Gabe Jackson
Published: Wednesday, July 3, 2013 at 12:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, June 26, 2013 at 5:30 p.m.
Gatorsports.com counts down this season's standout players in the nation's toughest conference.
No. 23 Gabe Jackson
Position: Offensive line
School: Mississippi State
Height: 6-foot-3
Weight: 335 pounds
Year: Senior
Why he's No. 23: Jackson looks more like a tackle than a guard and has the athletic ability to play either position. But it is as a guard that he has become one of the best linemen in the league. Jackson redshirted in 2009 but has been All-SEC in his last two seasons, During those two seasons he had recorded 147 knockdowns. He has started all 39 games for Mississippi State at guard. Jackson considered coming out early for the NFL draft but chose to return for his senior year to try to improve on his physicality. An improved Gabe Jackson will be a big plus for Mississippi State quarterback Tyler Russell as well as the Bulldogs' running game.

Doing Big Things!
Thursday, January 12, 2012
Three members of the Ithaca College community were invited to present on Ithaca College; sustainability education program at the International Forum on Education for Sustainable Development, held from October 16-18th 2011, in Beijing, China. Dr. Susan Allen-Gil, professor and chair of the department of Environmental Studies and Sciences, Dr. Susan Swensen, professor and chair of the department of Biology, and Marian Brown, special assistant to the provost for sustainability, represented Ithaca College and the United States at this prestigious international gathering of educators for sustainable development. This international forum - held every two years in the Asia-Pacific region - is part of the ongoing outreach and progress reporting process for the United Nations Decade of Education for Sustainable Development (2005-2014), which is overseen by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). The Ithaca College delegation was invited to present a series of three linked presentations on our innovative; Committed to Change" program of sustainability education. Dr. Swensen spoke about faculty development; Brown presented on applied learning opportunities; and Dr. Allen-Gil discussed our domestic and international partnerships, including those with EcoVillage at Ithaca, Living Routes, the Center for Ecological Living and Learning (CELL) as well as offering ideas for future development of our program. The three IC talks were consecutively translated into Mandarin Chinese for the benefit of the forum attendees. The Ithaca College delegation was the only group representing the United States at this international forum, and one of only two delegations from North America. During their visit, the Ithaca team visited the Liu Yi Primary school in Beijing, a showcase for; low carbon & sustainability education in primary grades. This marked the first time this school had entertained any international visitors, so the Ithaca team received very special attention from the entire staff and study body, with the grade-schoolers offering recycling and creative reuse demonstrations, as well as musical, dance and athletic performances.

Insulated gloves or mittens help your kid stay comfortable so they can stay outside longer. Because of their design, mittens for snow play often feature more insulation than gloves so they're warmer, but at the expense of dexterity. Synthetic insulation is usually used because it performs better in wet weather.
For skiing, snowboarding, or long sledding sessions, look for a glove or mitten with either a waterproofing insert (Gore-Tex, Outdry, etc.) or at a minimum, a waterproof coating on the fabric. The longer they will be out in the snow, the more advanced the technology should be. Fleece or knit gloves and mittens should be reserved for cold, dry days.
Since dexterity is often not an issue with this age group, mittens are a good choice, and they're easier for adults to put on little hands. Wrist straps or cinches can help keep them on their hands or even attached to their jacket. Many toddler gloves use an extra long gauntlet for coverage and full-length zipper for easy on and easy off.

karasaj - Tuesday, June 25, 2013 - linkEvery time I kept reading that, I kept thinking about how no name suppliers would be bad... hard to remember it's from Toshiba, haha. Good luck to them. Nice review :) Power consumption seems obnoxiously low at load. Reply

Pessimism - Tuesday, June 25, 2013 - linkWhy poo-poo the manufacturer for taking a stand to end the 1000^3 garbage? Everyone should follow suit and label with formatted capacity. Reply
hedleyroos - Tuesday, June 25, 2013 - linkYour use of the word "poo-poo" is ironically funny to people who speak Afrikaans (and probably Dutch and Flemish) since "stront" means "poo". They have zero chance of succeeding in those markets. Reply
Kristian Vättö - Tuesday, June 25, 2013 - linkLike I said, it's pretty much useless for a small OEM like Strontium to try and change the industry. Reply

dealcorn - Tuesday, June 25, 2013 - linkOK. Laptops outsell desktops and you were unable to test with HIPM and DIPM enabled and no mention was made of DEVSLP support which is a big deal for any Haswell mobile device. By impairing the relevance of the review to typical use cases, someone properly earns a demerit.
You need a Haswell mobile device to test with if you want to maintain relevance to the mainstream market. I would complain to my bosses that you need better hardware support to perform at the level they and readers expect of you. Reply
Kristian Vättö - Tuesday, June 25, 2013 - linkI'll be brutally honest here. Just because we are AnandTech doesn't mean that we have piles of laptops laying around, especially ones that are based on a chip that was released less than a month ago. All reviewers want Haswell-based devices at the moment, the supply is extremely tight. Usually laptops only have a review time of two weeks or so because the same system may be sent to others once it's been returned. Obviously reviewers who are actually going to review the system are the first priority, so it'd be really hard for me to get one because 1) I would only be using it for one test 2) I couldn't send it back anytime soon. In other words, the manufacturer wouldn't get much bang for their marketing $ because they wouldn't get much visibility, which is the reason review samples exist in the first place.
I know there's the option of buying one but again, I'll be honest here: It would be around $1000 for just one test. I would definitely take one if Anand paid for it but as far as I've understood, Anand isn't into spending thousands on test equipment (keep in mind that the financial situation isn't all that good for us since it's usually the marketing budgets that get cut when bad times hit, so it's harder for us to get advertisers). There's a ton of stuff I'd love to have as they would really take our SSD tests (especially power related) to a next level but I'm not the one making decisions.
We have talked with Intel and ASUS and asked if there's anyway HIPM/DIPM could be enabled on a desktop system (even via custom firmware) but as far as I know, they are not up for that.
Trust me, I would take a Haswell laptop on a heartbeat if someone gave me one, but I hope you also understand that we don't get whatever we want from manufacturers. Reply
dealcorn - Tuesday, June 25, 2013 - linkWell handled and responsive to my concern. So, BK is telling his team we have a winning hand but we need to release products faster. Anandtech is arguably the premier web site consumers turn to for help understanding how new technology benefits them. Intel, however, makes no effort to ensure you have access to the hardware necessary to explain why consumers should value the new stuff. If Intel is trying to increase the cadence, they should step up their game. If Intel does not understand that, it lessens BK's credibility. Reply
ssj3gohan - Wednesday, June 26, 2013 - linkWait, what?! HIPM and DIPM have been standard features that are always enabled on every intel desktop system since the intel 5 series at least (and AM2+ on the AMD side, which had other reasons). The only reason not to have HIPM and DIPM is your choice of OS. It's a driver-enabled feature, it doesn't work without explicitly enabling it. Reply
Kristian Vättö - Wednesday, June 26, 2013 - linkThat's not true. You can do the registry hack and get the option to enable HIPM+DIPM but that will have zero impact on power consumption on a desktop system. We've tried four different motherboards including Intel-branded ones and also both Windows 7 and 8 without success. That's why it took us so long to start doing HIPM+DIPM tests as Anand had to take an Ultrabook apart just for power testing and obviously I don't have access to that system due to geographical issues.

JDG1980 - Tuesday, June 25, 2013 - linkIf you want a Toshiba drive, why not just buy a Toshiba drive instead of one rebranded by a no-name company? I don't see the point of this. Reply
JarredWalton - Tuesday, June 25, 2013 - linkIt's cheaper and uses the same hardware and firmware? Reply
Kristian Vättö - Tuesday, June 25, 2013 - linkToshiba has quite poor retail presence, so Strontium may be targeting the markets where the availability of Toshiba SSDs is either very poor or non-existent. Reply
HisDivineOrder - Tuesday, June 25, 2013 - linkMy concern would be what happens when they change products and firmwares are... nonexistent. SSD's are still far too temperamental to trust just some nobody who likes to throw caution to the wind.
OCZ can't even be trusted in this regard.

I wouldn't have a problem if it was Intel or some other major SSD OEM doing this as they could change the way GB is defined in the storage industry
Kristian no they couldn't, seriously what the hell? We *still* have people arguing wrongly in freaking 2013? "Giga" is an SI prefix, it's base-10. That's what it is, anything else is wrong. This is particularly surprisingly from a technology enthusiast, as tech depends on precision, not random overloaded definitions. Maybe you'd like to suggest that they come up with their own definitions of "kilogram" and "pound" too with whatever mass they feel like? That sounds like a recipe for success!
If they want to show base-2, then they can use KiB/MiB/GiB/TiB/PiB. I don't think those sound the greatest but whatever, they're precise, correct, and the international standard (IEC 60027, published in *1999*). Storage makers were never wrong to use the SI prefixes and have base-10 numbers of sectors.
If anything the problem is Microsoft, who should long since have switched to displaying GB instead of GiB. Even Apple finally updated ages ago. Reply
Kristian Vättö - Tuesday, June 25, 2013 - linkThe problem is that Giga is not only an SI prefix, it's also a JEDEC prefix where Giga is defined as 1024^3. I do agree that Giga should only be used as an SI prefix (i.e. meaning 1000^3) but I guess someone at JEDEC thought that since 1000^3 and 1024^3 are "close enough", lets just call them the same.
I also agree that it's Microsoft who should just change to the SI standard and define GB as 1000^3 bytes like Apple did. My point about Intel was that it's useless for a small OEM like Strontium to differ from the norm and I don't see Intel or anyone else switching away from the SI standard because the advertised capacities would end up being smaller than they are now. Reply
KAlmquist - Wednesday, June 26, 2013 - link"Storage makers were never wrong to use the SI prefixes"
This is, I believe, inconsistent with your preceding paragraph. When disk drive manufacturers came up with their own definition of megabyte to make their disk drives seem larger, that created the same problems you envision if someone came up with their own definitions for "kilogram" and "pound".
As you note, that the IEC has decided to endorse the disk drive manufacture's definition of "megabyte" and has invented the term "mebibyte" to refer to a megabyte. That's a response to the linguistic mess created by the disk drive manufacturers; it doesn't justify creating the mess in the first place.
Meanwhile, as Kristian notes, JEDEC is sticking with the original meaning of the word. Words can acquire new meanings fairly quickly, but it takes a long time (on the order of 100 years) for a word to lose a well-established meaning. Reply
Kristian Vättö - Tuesday, June 25, 2013 - linkThat's different. Apple doesn't hide the fact that they've updated the iPad, the least they do is release a press release. I agree that calling third-gen iPad the "iPad 3" and then going back to just "iPad" wasn't the best move from Apple, but it was understandable as the naming would quickly get stupid (imagine e.g. iPad 11). Apple has always been doing that with the MacBook Pros for instance.
Strontium did nothing to let the public know that they've changed suppliers, hence the suspicion. No press release, no mention in the product page, nothing. Like I said in the article, we are the first to report about this - I even thought I'm reviewing a SandForce drive until I took the drive apart. Reply
gamoniac - Tuesday, June 25, 2013 - linkGreat review. Not a bad drive at all. Unfortunately it is overshadowed by the GB vs GiB and Hawk vs Python issues. I don't mind owning one if reliability is their focus. Now the other deciding factors are warranty and customer service. If they can build up a good reputation, they will have a good following. Reply
toytanks - Wednesday, June 26, 2013 - linkI just purchased a the Samsung 840 Pro 256GB. Does anyone know how much of a difference it would make to use this instead, in terms of battery life? Reply

I, Pandora has had a mixed history on Network Neutrality.
Network what?
Network Neutrality is one response to fears that infrastructure and service companies, such as AT&T, Verizon, and Comcast, spell doom for the freedom of the internet as they inevitably begin controlling access to content, enhancing access to content they own, control, or partner with, and limiting access to content they deem contrary to their best interest.
The majority of Network Neutrality supporters want the FCC to step in and set rules requiring the infrastructure/service companies provide equal access to all content and forbidding them from interfering in any way with the freedom of the internet.
Sounds good, right?
As with any other debate, you have to get to the deeper issues. And this debate is rife with deeper issues.
When I first heard of Network Neutrality I was gung-ho for it. I did not understand the goals at the heart of this push.
"Don't be hasty, master Hobbit!"
There was a reason liberal Democrat leaders were more for this program than Republicans and conservatives. Liberals dream of more regulation and control and private and free systems. The freer the system the stronger the urge to a liberal to regulate it.
My confusion over Network Neutrality did not continue long. I supported it in March of 2007, and by August of that year I wrote about the inherent conflict between government regulation and innovation.
Government regulation is the enemy of innovation.
In the arguments over Net Neutrality, I feel for the plebes. I don't want my traffic throttled any more than it already is by the ISP. But is it the government's responsibility to control this? And if we allow the government to say who can access the internet and at what speed, where is our moral authority when the government wants to say who can't access the internet?
Perhaps I am more libertarian than I like to think myself to be.
Later I quoted Rep. John Sununu (R – New Hampshire) regarding the slippery slope of wishing for government interference:
If the Internet has taught us anything, it's that it's pretty presumptuous to predict what the future will be. We should be very, very cautious about imposing regulations based on what we think competitors will do in the future and how we think consumers will respond based on what we think competitors will do.
Gee, that sounds familiar.
Oh, yea. Attorney General Eric Holder, in a 60 minutes spot on healthcare and specifically Medicare and Medicaid's extremely high levels of fraud made perhaps the most blind statement regarding human nature I've ever heard from a lawman:
People didn't think that something as well-intentioned as Medicare and Medicaid would necessarily attract um… fraudsters.
People not thinking. Not considering the implications of what they want.
Just because it's well intentioned doesn't mean it's right and good and free of the failings that so plague us mortals.
Are Verizon, AT&T, and Comcast completely good in their actions so far regarding the internet? No.
Comcast has been slapped once for purposely throttling connections to certain types of content during peak times load times.
But is the government the solution?
In my article regarding regulation versus innovation I make it clear that while there is a place for regulation, that regulation is best applied to the government itself, limiting it's ability to tamper with our system of free enterprise.
There is a question I'd ask of anybody regarding this issue. If Thomas Edison were alive today which entity would be the greatest enemy of his innovation: Government or Business?
Sonia Ericson, writing in TechNewsWorld today provides a meaningful and realistic and proven alternative to network neutrality: private control.
ICANN is currently the organization closest to being "in control" of the internet.
It's a private organization which controls the distribution and changes to the domain names which make the internet navigable.
(A)sking the FCC to "protect" the Internet means inviting government oversight, which injects more politics — not less — into the operation of the Net.
Sonia then talks about someone I've met:
Ashwin Navin, cofounder of BitTorrent, also says he doesn't support government regulation of the Net, even though his name appears on an OIC letter. He says he'd rather see Internet service providers come up with a self-regulatory plan based on a pledge to keep the Net open and the creation of a third body to arbitrate. Indeed, Navin says that his own company's scuffle with Comcast was ultimately solved without formal rules after a netizen noticed that Comcast was degrading service and brought the matter to the public's attention.
"The problem is disclosure," Navin says. "Consumers need to know if the ISP, which is the most invisible layer in the stack, is responsible for an improved or degraded experience for any of the services they use."
Geek Out Alert!
In my days working for Fry's Electronics, Ashwin's step-dad hired us to build and repair his wireless network. He introduced me to Horchata and I watched the Blue Angels practice over his backyard. Ashwin and his brother came by once while I was there and I basked in the presence of those gods of the internet, the business minds behind BitTorrent.
But Ashwin has a point. A good point. A point I may elaborate on further in the future.
Suffice to say that information is the grease for the wheels of the free market and capitalism. And the internet, above all else in the history of markets, has enabled the dissemination of information more efficiently and the finding and gauging of information more easily.
Why do we trust the government to act in our best interest when it comes to such a powerful information force as the internet? The government has no competitors to blow the whistle on it's misdeeds. The government self-interest lies in a dearth of information.
Trust the government and be taken for a fool. I'll not be joining you in your foolishness.

ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. - A 38-year-old Lynx bus driver has been charged with battery after he was accused of hitting a passenger's hand, knocking his cell phone to the ground.
At 9:15 a.m. Wednesday, 29-year-old Adrian Cano boarded Lynx Bus #8 at the central Lynx station, located at 455 North Garland Avenue.
The bus driver, later identified as 38-year-old Marcus Phillips, was in a verbal argument with a woman, according to deputies.
The driver drove on the route and back towards the station. Deputies said several passengers became angry and the bus driver continued making remarks to the passengers.
As the bus approached Cano's stop, deputies said he stood up and turned on his cell phone. As Cano passed Marcus, he told him that his behavior was unprofessional.
The bus driver then took off his seat belt and swung at Cano, striking his right hand and knocking his cell phone to the ground, according to the Orange County Sheriff's Office,
Deputies said Cano did not give anyone permission to touch him in any way. Cano told deputies he is willing to testify in court and wishes to prosecute criminally.
Deputies met with Phillips after the incident. He told deputies there was an altercation on the bus between two women on the bus.
Phillips told deputies he drove the bus back to the Lynx station, where he had the women removed from the bus.
Phillips then restarted his route when Cano, who is unknown to Marcus, began complaining about six minutes being wasted turning around.
Upon reaching the Holden Avenue stop, located at 4600 S Orange Blossom Trail, Phillips told deputies that Cano began calling him a "whore" and calling his mother names, according to OCSO's report.
Phillips told deputies that Cano was recording him and that Cano would send the video to his supervisor. At this time, deputies said Phillips knocked the cell phone out of Adrian's hand and drove off.
Surveillance video from the Lynx bus shows Cano approach the bus driver from the back of the bus, holding his cell phone in his right hand. Deputies said Phillips was then seen taking off his seat belt and stepping out of his seat towards Cano.
The bus then moved forward, Phillips got back into the driver's seat and placed the bus in park. Deputies said Phillips again gets up, walks towards Cano, and strikes his right hand, knocking his cell phone to the ground.
OCSO said charges of battery are being filed with the State Attorney's Office against Phillips.

ORLANDO, Fla. - A brand new children's hospital treated its first emergency patient within hours of being open.
The young girl was a victim of a car accident and was taken by ambulence to Nemours Children's Hospital in Lake Nona this morning. She was treated for minor injuries and released.
The state-of-the-art Nemours Children's Hospital officially opened Monday at the Lake Nona Medical City in Orlando, just off State Road 417 near Orlando International Airport.
The hospital has dozens of patient rooms, along with cutting-edge medical equipment.
Months ago, parents actually helped interview and pick the doctors and nurses who would be working there.
Patients like 9-year-old Alyssa Vasquez, who traveled from Georgia with her mother to be treated for a leg condition, say the hospital doesn't feel like a hospital.
"It's fun and playful and very decorative," Alyssa told Local 6.
Nemours manager Barbara Meeks said the 8 a.m. opening started a celebration.
"Pretty much brought me to tears because that is why we are here," Meeks said. "We are here to help these children and their families get better in a very soothing environment."
Amy Vasquez, Alyssa's mother, says the hospital's unique setting makes her and her daughter feel at ease.
"The ability to stay in the room with the child made all the difference in the world," she said.
Nemours has about 750 employees working at the facility, but hopes to expand to 850 by the end of the year.

Renovate a Presbytery for a Parish in India
Thursday, June 19, 2014
Project Code: 317-01-19
There are some 26,000 people living in the village of Kuwakhera, in the state of Uttar Pradesh in northern India. They belong to various different religious communities and social castes. Many are casteless Dalits, while others belong to the lowest castes. Most of the people are extremely poor and only very few can read or write. The families live in bad conditions, with poor health and hygiene, and many are bond laborers in the fields of the big landowners, utterly dependent on them and at their mercy. They have no voice and no rights of their own. The situation of the women is particularly difficult.In the Catholic Parish of Our Lady, there are three priests and three religious Sisters who strive to help the local people, ministering to the pastoral and material needs of the faithful. They visit families regularly, helping and advising them and supporting them in their need however they can. They also help the children to gain an education. "Most of the children are very good at school," says the parish priest Father Lyju Gautam, proudly. But the most important thing is the pastoral apostolate, and it is never too soon to begin catechesis. One of the Sisters runs a group of "Friends of the Child Jesus" which has over 40 children in it. "We want to provide the children with a solid foundation for their faith," says the parish priest. The Sisters also care especially for the women, who until now were scarcely aware of their own dignity before God. Daily Eucharistic adoration, the Rosary prayed with the families and an intensive catechesis all form part of parish life. The major feast days are celebrated by the Catholic faithful with such beauty and fervor that even the Hindus and Muslims also want to take part and share the experience.There is one serious problem, however: the presbytery is in a state of severe disrepair and so is in urgent need of renovation. In two or three years, it will be uninhabitable. But the presence of the priests among the faithful is vital and is at the heart of all this active parish life and life of faith. Father Gautam has turned to us confidently for help, and we have promised him $7,500. Will you help him renovate this presbytery so that he can continue to serve the poor and the faithful in India?Aid to the Church in Need commits to invest your funds where they will have the greatest impact for the Church that we serve. Funds donated to Aid to the Church in Need's projects will be used towards the greatest need in our programs to help keep the Faith alive.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 31/7/2013 (1483 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The narrow, flowered path that leads to Step'n Out looks like an enchanting corner of old Europe, with a sheltered patio on one side, and the fieldstone-bordered purple wall of the restaurant on the other. The interior is equally enchanting. It's tiny (24 seats, plus 12 more on a mezzanine) but without an inch of empty space on the walls, which are covered by photos of the famous, as well as many you've never heard of. Gorgeous orchids in handsome jars line the window sills. Tiny lights twinkle in the lush, live greenery. And perched on wee ledges everywhere, the motif of the house, a multitude of miniature porcelain shoes and boots, most donated by clients.
It's often been described as the most romantic restaurant in town, and I'd agree, but it's not just a pretty face. Since its first incarnation on King and Bannatyne in 1998 it has also been one of the town's better restaurants, and after moving to this St. Boniface location in 2004 it got even better -- 41/2 stars at the time of my last review. But since that time the cooking of self-taught chef Alan Shepard (co-owner with life partner Verna Judge) has become increasingly sure and even more accomplished, and two recent absolutely flawless dinners have earned him a solid five stars.
Dinners start with house-made, buttery, almost brioche-like rolls, with just a hint of sweetness, and butter that (unlike some ice-hard pats elsewhere) is soft enough to spread. You can have more rolls for the asking but restrain yourself -- there are other treats to come.
Herbs and spices are used effectively but not aggressively, and the sauces on every dish are notably light and distinct from each other. Ingredients are top quality and the preparations are impeccable. Prime ingredients don't ever come cheap and that's reflected in some of the prices, notably those made with a mixture of seafoods, the rack of lamb and a Black Angus tenderloin that go for $39.95 each. But the same standards apply to all other entrées, which range from $25.95 to $34.95.
One of the top-priced dishes is the Louisiana seafood stew, a bountiful bowl of shrimp, mussels, crab and lobster tail, poached in seafood stock enlivened by cayenne, oregano, basil and a shot of Pernod. Another is linguini with shrimp, large lobster tails and asparagus in a gossamer dill and lemon cream sauce.
For me the pièce de résistance was the superb tender crêpes, topped by shrimp, crab and lobster in a delicate creamy sauce with mushrooms. It's listed as an entrée, but four of us shared it as an appetizer and, to tell the truth, it was so good I'd never again let anyone have more than a bite. It's a recurring regular, but fillings on other nights might be salmon with spinach, or chicken and mushrooms.
Pickerel from a pure northern Manitoba lake just doesn't come any better and is a great buy at $25.95 -- three thick, sweet-fleshed slices in a light caper remoulade, topped by a dramatic orange swirl of fried, julienned sweet potatoes. The chalkboard menu changes daily, so the pickerel you read about today might be grilled Chilean sea bass, salmon or sable fish on another night. If I had a nit to pick I could wish there were more than just one fish on the menu.
Lemon-scented risotto, surrounded by a little pool of dark basil oil, was creamy and still slightly al dente, mixed with fresh-tasting Parmesan and topped by huge grilled shrimp and a sliver-thin curl of baked Parmesan. Much of the emphasis is on seafood, which is what I always come for, but meat-seekers will do just as well with the tender rack of garlic- and rosemary-flavoured lamb in a port demi-glace, or with a gingery and sesame-seasoned duck breast. Each dish comes with its own garnish: baby potatoes with the pickerel; creamy potatoes au gratin with the lamb; and a Chinese-style mixture of stir-fried veggies with the duck.
I wish there were more seafoods among the appetizers (most $9.95 to $13.95), but the blue swimmer crab with avocado salad in a creamy, citrusy dressing was excellent and my obsessive search for top-notch mussels was rewarded here by sweet-fleshed, plump and juicy mussels steamed in lightly herbed Chardonnay and Pernod-spiked sauce enriched with cream. Other possible starters include fried calamari, Village Bay oysters, pan-fried shrimp on thin somen noodles, curried pumpkin ravioli or beef carpaccio.
I loved the crustless apple pie of mandolin-sliced apples that are baked and basted for hours, but turn out with the slices still distinct, sauced by slightly caramelized apple juices ($7.95). And dessert doesn't get much more decadently delicious than the multi-layered Callebaut Chocolate Sin cake, filled with chocolate mousse and ganache and doused with Grand Marnier ($9.95). Desserts are few and I could live the rest of my life without a shmoo torte, but next time I might be tempted by the limoncello chiffon or the crème caramel.
Dinner is served Tuesday to Saturday, lunch Tuesday to Friday, when smaller portions of some similar dishes are offered, from $12.95 to $19.95. The interesting wine list is heavy on Australian and Argentine wines, sold at a remarkably civilized markup of 50 to 75 per cent, with 10 available by the glass. Thursday is "bring your own bottle" night, with no corkage fee as long as the bottle has a Banville & Jones store sticker, and after a minimum food purchase of $25.
The super-warm service is knowledgeable, attentive and absolutely perfect. Everything about the place is five stars.

A 17-year-old schoolgirl is fighting for her life in hospital after being hit by a car last week.
Miriam Parker, of Carshalton, yesterday remained in a critical but stable condition six days after suffering serious head injuries when she was knocked down in Selsdon on New Year's Day.
Up to 60 family members and friends gathered on Sunday to pray for the recovery of the Archbishop Tenison's Church of England High School pupil, who is in an induced coma at St George's Hospital.
A family friend today said the teenager's "devastated" mother Davina had held vigil by her hospital bed for much of the last week.
Police arrested the driver of the car, a man in his 40s, on suspicion of causing injury by dangerous driving following the collision in Selsdon Park Road, near Tedder Road, just before 9pm. He was bailed by police on Thursday.
Paramedics took Miriam, thought to have been struck as she crossed the road at a pedestrian crossing, to the hospital's major trauma centre, where she has since undergone two operations to reduce swelling on the brain.
The teenager's eldest sister, Kirsty, wrote online: "The nurses and surgeons have been amazing. Please continue to keep her in your thoughts and prayers. We are devastated."
She added: "Mum is being really strong and is the glue holding everyone together. Miriam had had many of those closest to her visit over these past 48 hours.
"I picked up her favourite pug cuddly to be with her on her bed. She loves pug dogs."
The congregation at Wallington's Holy Trinity Church, where Davina is manages hall bookings, gathered to pray for Miriam on Sunday, while friends paid tributes to the "special" teenager online.
Danielle Cross wrote: "We are praying for better news and keeping Miriam in our hearts, thoughts and prayers. This is just so awful."
Becky Jones said: "Can't begin to imagine what you and your family are going through. I'm sure your strength will help to support her through this devastating time."
A driver who provided emergency first-aid to the teenager said he had struggled to sleep since witnessing the aftermath of the collision.
Tony Ridgeway, 53, of West Wickham, said: "I arrived on the scene within probably 30 seconds.
"As I got closer to the traffic lights at the pedestrian crossing I saw the car in front of me stopped at the green light, saw the cars on the other side, and then as a I got closer there was a body on the floor.
"Everyone was just standing around, I think basically in shock."
"I checked her airwaves, made sure she was breathing and basically just tried to get her as comfortable as possible. She was limp and lifeless.
"She was probably between 10 and 20 metres away from the actual vehicle so she had been thrown quite a bit."
He added: "I feared the worst. I did not sleep that night or much the next. When I heard that she was still alive, a breathed a sigh of relief. I am crossing my fingers that she makes it."
The Metropolitan Police is continuing to investigate the collision and asked anyone with information are asked to call 101.

Brentwood Medical
Approval for New Medical Device
A medical company with a pilot plant in Brentwood recently became the first company worldwide to obtain U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval for surgically treating uterine fibroids. Halt Medical spent nearly a decade testing and developing the medical device, called Acessa, before receiving an FDA clearance last month. The human clinical trial for Acessa involved 137 patients of various racial backgrounds at 11 different sites in the United States, Mexico and Guatemala, according to Halt CEO Jeff Cohen. "It is big news. We are still celebrating," said Cohen last week. "We are thrilled to be in a position to fundamentally improve women's health care." According to Cohen, Acessa uses radio-frequency energy to heat the tissue and destroy the uterine fibroids, which are later absorbed by the surrounding tissue. This technology allows doctors to use a minimally invasive surgery rather than do a hysterectomy, which was usually used to remove the fibroids. Dr. Don Galen, a San Ramon-based gynecologist, said among the advantages of Acessa is that it is an outpatient procedure, it involves less discomfort for patients because there is no large incision, and it doesn't require removing the majority of the uterine tissue. "It would allow us to actually treat virtually all of the fibroids in the uterus in any location in the uterus because of the high-resolution ultrasound that was used as part of the procedure," Galen said. In the United States, 7.5 million women suffer from symptomatic uterine fibroids and only 300,000 women have a procedure done to cure it, Cohen said. "Most women would rather suffer with it than have a hysterectomy," he said. Among the common symptoms of uterine fibroids is excessive bleeding, painful sexual intercourse, incontinence, infertility and pain. Through the Acessa trial, women saw a significant reduction in symptoms during the first three to six months, and 98 percent of them would recommend it to their friends. "Often, these women only wear black, don't leave their houses or don't have intercourse," Cohen said. "We significantly reduced their bleeding. It changes your life. You can become a prisoner of it (fibroids)."

Commuters were stuck on trains and stranded at stations after urgent track repairs closed lines between Town Hall and Bondi Junction on Tuesday morning.
Travellers reported that short trips between inner-city stations, such as from Kings Cross to Martin Place, took more than an hour after track problems closed the Eastern Suburbs and Illawara Line in both directions.
Trains have now resumed on the lines but are only able to pass the work site at Martin Place very slowly and some services are diverting via the City Circle, a statement from Sydney Trains said.
A "broken rail" at Martin Place caused the disruption, the statement said.
A spokesman would not provide any further information but said another statement would be released "when the incident is resolved".
It's not known how many trains were stuck between stations, or for exactly how long, due to the broken rail.
"Crews have now repaired the broken rail and services will gradually start to return to normal although speed restrictions are still in place," the statement said.
Some train services are still diverting via the City Circle, meaning passengers may have to change trains.
Passengers were first warned to expect delays about 9am and when the lines were closed, just before 9.45am, there were no replacement buses immediately avaliable adding to the problems for commuters.
Buses are no longer supplementing trains on the line. The Transport Management Centre said passengers should continue to allow additional travel time.
Paseengers on the South Coast line are also facing delays due to the track repairs.
On Twitter, the use of the hashtag #cityfail quickly gained momentum as frustrated commuters took to the social media site complain about the lengthy disruption to their journeys.

Autumn is Almost Here
Photography has inspired and fascinated me since I first realized my father taught photography. Over the years, I've found myself constantly drawn to images with elements of fashion and spontaneity. At MOPA, we've been bringing together all sorts of amazing work for the inaugural launch of our Photo Auction, taking place on Wednesday, October 5th. One donation in particular comes from Autumn de Wilde, a photographer whose work I've admired for some time.
The daughter of a successful documentary photographer, Jerry de Wilde, Autumn has made a deep imprint on today's pop culture and fashion world with her thoughtful and ethereal images. De Wilde has produced a body of work that is unique, given her unparalleled access to musicians such as Elliott Smith, Beck, Jenny Lewis and The White Stripes. For years she has worked with fashion designers, Kate and Laura Mulleavy, known as Rodarte. Her photographs of their designs for the film Black Swan and their 2011 line appear on their website. She's even taken a road trip with Elijah Wood, creating whimsical images of him and a cohort at their stops along the way.
De Wilde just published her fourth monograph with Chronicle Books, Beck, showcasing over 15 years of photographing the musician Beck Hansen. It includes a foreward by award winning film and video director and screenwriter, Michel Gondry, well known for his feature length, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
For a peek at more of Autumn de Wilde's work, you can visit her website, or to see her truly magnificent Polaroids and virtual photo diary spanning fashion, music, and an utterly scintillating aesthetic, check out her blog. The blog is updated frequently, and serves as a favorite stop in my daily internet routine. Who knows, you may just find her work as inspiring and visually dreamy as I do.

Android 4.2 Hits AOSP, Broadcom Replaces NXP with NCI Stack for NFCby Brian Klug on 11/14/2012 6:08 PM EST

YellowWing - Thursday, November 15, 2012 - linkI ordered some 1K tags for my Nexus 4. The vendor now has info on their site that the tags will not work with Nexus 4 or Nexus 10. Something about the Broadcom controller not supporting NXP legacy tags. Reply
MadMan007 - Thursday, November 15, 2012 - linkWell, that's kind of bad. Do you trust the vendor, or are you willing to buy a few tags just to find out? If the new stack and/or chip really marks a bifurcation of NFC it's something worth Anandtech looking into and explaining I think, especially if it goes beyond NFC tags into other NFC functions.

The National Library of Norway has several production lines which handle different types of material. Each day several terabytes of data flow though these lines.
The material that is digitalised is subject to the following production processes:
- Scanning/digititzation
- Structure analysis
- Post-processing
The National Library of Norway has several types of scanners and digitizing tools, including document scanners, leaf scanners and automatic leaf scanners. These are used to digitize paper materials such as books, newspapers, photographs etc. We also have equipment for digitizing films, videos and sound.
Structure analysis:
Once material that contains text has been digitalised it is often sent for Optical Character Recognition (OCR). This process involves computers "translating" pictures to text. This allows the user to search in the entire text, not just in the metadata. Analyses are also carried out to identify which parts of the text are headers, sections and similar.
This involves automatic validation and checking of files, generation of metadata, entering into databases, making files available for distribution and archiving in our digital archives. Printed material is stored in jpeg2000 or tiff. Radio material is stored as wav. For moving pictures we have several types of storage formats, including mpeg4 H264.
Digitizing lines
- Newspapers
- Pictures
- Books
- Sound
- Manuscripts, handwritten documents, notes
- Magazines
- Videos/films
- Reports to the Storting (Norwegian Parliament)
In addition to digitizing the physical collection, several other lines handle material that is "born digitally", in so-called "reception lines". For example we receive digital editions of newspapers and process these for archiving and distribution. The reception runs involve downloading, structure analysis and post-processing.

Boortz's "Idiotic" Obama-9/11 Comparison Draws Fire From Victims' Families
Blog ››› ››› JOE STRUPP
Radio Host Neal Boortz's attempt to compare President Obama's presidency to the tragedy of September 11 drew harsh criticism from several relatives of people who died on that day.
Boortz, appearing on Fox News' Hannity program Thursday night, stated: "Barack Obama is a bigger disaster to this country than 9-11."
For some of those who lost loved ones that day, the comparison is an insult.
"One of the most unsettling aspects of the aftermath of 9-11 has been the politicization of it," said Donald Goodrich, whose son, Peter, died in the attacks.
"It is a sad commentary on our democracy that the loss of nearly 3,000 innocent civilians of every political persuasion and religious conviction is used to demonize a president of this great country."
Timothy Sumner, whose brother-in-law was a firefighter killed on September 11, said he is no fan of Obama. But he criticized Boortz's comparison
"I think it's a ridiculous comment, it is so far off the topic, how can you emote from that?" Sumner said. "It is not even related to 9/11.
"I have issues with Barack Obama. But when you make comments like that, it is so over the top and out of context it is hard to do anything but laugh at the comment, it seems idiotic."
For Nancy Aronson, whose sister-in-law, Myra, was killed on September 11, the response was shock.
"Oh my God!" she said. "That's just ridiculous. It's politicizing an international tragedy. People from 53 countries died on September 11. Even linking Obama with that, it's just a non sequitur."
Herb Ouida's son, Todd, was killed in the North Tower on September 11. Ouida said the comparison to and criticism of Obama are both wrong.
"I could not disagree more with that," he said after hearing Boortz's views. "First of all, I think that the president is on track with the jobs that he saved in the auto industry, the fact that he saved the banks from going down the tubes.
"Number two, using September 11 is becoming almost a joke and a farce for some people. If you want to talk about an issue, September 11 is its own tragedy, it is a special tragedy. It doesn't need to be brought up to make a point that is not relevant to September 11.
"I just wish that people would understand that there is a lot of pain involved in bringing up September 11 for purposes that really have no relevance to September 11. I wish the lessons of September 11 could be peace. "
Timothy Barr is on the Board of Directors of FamiliesofSeptember11.org and also disagreed with the Boortz comparison.
"For anybody to compare the leader of the free world to the type of devastating tragedy that happened on 9/11 is way out of bounds from my thinking," said Barr, whose wife was in the World Trade Center when the planes hit, but survived. "Based on that comment, I can't see where any rational person could equate and believe those two things to be congruent."

Hey guys,
So, given the new Breaking Dawn trailer I've just finished watching, I must say, I am completely disappointed. Although, it does exactly what the book has done: made me believe it was from another Saga. There's just no connection, and to prove my point:
In this second trailer, we see, for one, the werewolf pack attacking the Cullens, which doesn't happen in the book. They plan it, but never act on it. I suppose they were desperate for some action, since all that happens is we see Bella slowly dying.
Robert Pattinson looks so changed, and it's not just him, of course, it's everyone else. Also, you've noticed that already.
Kristen Stewart's hair and make up for the wedding was not impressing at all, contrary to everyone in the book insisting she looks stunning and what not. I wasn't looking for overboard, I was looking for a little bit of finesse, instead of her coming out in a wedding dress and bangs in her face like she wasn't done with her hair. She is naturally beautiful- they could've done better. This is just my opinion, if people think she looked as described in the book, fine. I'm not going to start an argument.
I don't like Alice and Carlisle at all, and they were two of my 4 favorite characters.
I have a hunch I'm going to feel much annoyance towards Bella in this movie, if I'm even going to watch it.
Jacob I'm not even going to talk about; thoroughly disappointed there.
Aro looks weirder than EVER, and I had to use caps, because he just DOES!
These lines annoy me so much:
"If you kill her, you kill me."
"You're the enemy now. Sam won't hesitate; he will be smart."
And what takes the cake:
"You have to accept what is" or whatever she says.
This would have been a whole lot simpler if they just ripped Rosalie and Emmet apart, and whoever else they needed to, knocked Bella out and just gotten the damn thing out and we wouldn't be here. Please excuse my brutality- I am extremely annoyed, though.
