HAVERFORD -- Heading into U.S. Open week, the question was whether cramped Merion Golf Club could handle the enormity of another national championship tournament, its first in 32 years. Following four days and 72 holes, the question has become this: When will it be back?
"I'm sure it will come back," said mega-star Tiger Woods.�
"I think it is definitely going to come back," agreed former amateur and PGA Senior Tour star Jay Sigel of Berwyn. "Although somebody (with the USGA) told me it would be a quite a few years until they do."
Sure, there were some headaches. Staging a 2013 major championship on a land-locked, 100-year-old venue located in a residential neighborhood is inherently going to pose some perplexing logistical problems.�
Just about everybody is going to be asked to chip in and make a few concessions - spectators, players, officials, volunteers, club members and local residents. But the general consensus is that the payoff has been well worth it.
"How good is Merion compared to a few little inconveniences?" Sigel pointed out. �
"You know what, the golf course is second to none, really," said Charlie Hoffman, an eight-year veteran of the PGA Tour. "Logistics and walking around are a little tough. �But the crowd, the golf course, it's fun to be out here."
As for the tight, quirky 6,996-yard East Course, the reviews have been almost universally positive. The challenge has been admittedly great, but it's been fair. Most of the players who have voiced a negative opinion, it's been directed to the USGA for the tough set up (tucked pins, narrow fairways).
"I think it's playing quite nice as it is," said Northern Ireland's Rory McIlroy, the world's No. 2 ranked player. "If you're on top of your game, I think this is a pretty reasonable challenge. I'm disappointed that I haven't played better, because I think level par has a great chance of winning, and I don't see it as being an unrealistic score. No, I don't think it's tricked up."
Sweden's Henrik Stenson said: "It's very draining, mentally and physically."
But that's exactly what the powers that be are looking for in a U.S. Open golf course. Add in Merion's unmatched historical significance - having hosted 18 USGA events, including five U.S. Opens -- and you have the perfect recipe from the USGA's point of view. They are reportedly taking a $10 million hit to come to Merion, but it's a financial shortfall they are now willing to endure from time to time.
"I think the USGA should do this more - take a look at some of the other classic courses that everybody assumed had become obsolete," Sigel said.�
"We've all heard the USGA would like to have the winning score around par, so how did Merion do? And that's despite perfect soft conditions. It couldn't possibly be better from their standpoint. And I don't think it could be better for the members, for the spectators or for TV."
Other than a few barbs directed Sergio Garcia's way in the wake of a comment directed toward Tiger Woods last month that was perceived as racially charged, the galleries were reportedly supportive and respectful. Webb Simpson had some positive things to say about Merion earlier in the week, and the galleries responded kindly to the 2012 U.S. champion.
"They've been great," he said. "I was glad what I said about loving Merion. A lot of them picked up on that. It's been fun to hear that. They're great, they're knowledgeable (and) they understand golf. They were cheering for pretty much anything."
The spectators were limited to about 25,000 per day due to the lack of open space, which is considerably less than, say, crowds of 40,000 at the Olympic Club, the 2012 venue. But some thought it was a plus.
"It was a fantastic atmosphere; the people were into it," Woods said. "Obviously there weren't as many people as some of the U.S. Open sites. But this was, I think, more intimate. People were very close to you. Sometimes we get a lot of people, like at Bethpage, but they're so far off away from us.�
"Here, because the property is so small, I think the galleries were a little bit closer than they have been in most U.S. Open sites."
West Chester native Jim Furyk endured a pair of nightmarish rounds and did not make the cut. He had a few pointed criticisms for the setup, but he had nothing negative to say about Merion.
"It's a wonderful old golf course and it goes to show you that a golf course doesn't have to be 7,800 yards to be a great golf course," he said. "Merion will hold its own most of the time. There is a lot of history here. It's hosted more USGA events than any other venue.
"But there are a lot of logistical issues: getting us in and out, and the rain delays did add to that. And (the locker room) is a mile and a half away. It's awkward, but being from this area, playing junior golf in the Philadelphia area, I am glad I had the opportunity to play here. I am glad that Merion was able to showcase its golf course."

Fabolous to Headline Ghana Music Festival
Brooklyn rapper Fabolous has been tapped to headline a major music festival in Ghana, Africa.
Due to the success his 2009 'My Time' single with Jeremih, a huge hit in the West African country, Fabolous has been chosen to top the event, being held at the Dome of the Accra International Conference Centre on April 7. He will be joined by acts from across Nigeria and Ghana. Fab reportedly has a large fan base in Ghana, and while the rest of the artists have yet to be announced, the event is already being billed as "a concert of a lifetime" by local news portals.
In other news, it has been revealed that Fab will be collaborating with singer Ne-Yo on a 'Best of Both Worlds'-style album, in stores soon. "I'm actually working on a new album as we speak," Ne-Yo told MTV. "This next album is more about just listening to the music, vibing out, determine your own adventure, back to what it is I normally do. Be looking for that around September."
Fab's long-delayed new album, 'Carlito's Way 2: Rise to Power' is rumored to be in stores shortly. Last month he released a the video for 'Wolves in Sheep Clothing,' a cut off his 'The S.O.U.L. Tape.' The mixtape was set to drop last month, but still has not surfaced.

The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz seems to be depending a lot on a local businessman's influence on the non-Seraiki population, especially the large Arain vote bank, for reviving its fortunes in Rahim Yar Khan, the last southern district of Punjab bordering Balochistan, Sindh and India.
The party leadership is said to have given weight to the recommendations of the businessman, Chaudhry Munir, while fielding its candidates for the six national and 13 provincial assembly seats in the district, even if it meant sort of marginalising its old hand, Chaudhry Jafar Iqbal — at least in the eyes of the local cadres.
"Chaudhry Munir has virtually edged Jafar Iqbal out of the district politics of the party," a PML-N leader from Rahim Yar Khan tells Dawn on the condition of anonymity. "The PML-N had consulted Chaudhry Munir on almost all aspirants for its ticket for national and provincial seats and his 'advice' has almost been binding."
Local journalists confirm his claim. They say the PML-N has gone to the extent of leaving the National Assembly seat from Sadiqabad-Jamal Din Wali (NA-195) uncontested because Chaudhry Munir is backing Makhdoom Khusro Bakhtiar, former state minister for foreign affairs under retired Gen Pervez Musharraf, from there. This is in spite of the fact that Mr Bakhtiar has fought the last two elections on a PML-Q ticket and is being backed by the Chaudhries of Gujrat in the next election.
"Chaudhry Munir has promised to the PML-N leadership that he will deliver Mr Bakhtiar, who is also one of the shareholders along with Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi, in his sugar mill in Rahim Yar Khan, to the party in case he wins against Makhdoom Syed Mustafa Mahmood, son of Punjab Governor Makhdoom Syed Ahmed Mahmood, from his family seat," says the PML-N politician quoted above.
Other candidates being strongly backed by the businessman, who is known for his close links with a royal family in the Gulf, include Sheikh Fayyaz-ud-Din from Khanpur (NA-193) and Mian Imtiaz Ahmed from Rahim Yar Khan City (NA-196).
"Both have been brought in to replace Jafar Iqbal from NA-196 and his daughter Zaib from NA-193, showing the reducing influence of the former deputy speaker of the National Assembly on his party's politics in the district."
However, some other factors behind the change are not difficult to locate: "Both the father and daughter had lost badly in the last two elections in 2002 and 2008 and there is a lot of resentment against Jafar Iqbal in the district," says the PML-N politician.
It is obvious that while Chaudhry Munir's arrival is duly marked, the 'snub' to Mr Iqbal has been exaggerated in the talk of the local PML-N circle — perhaps based on the disappointing show in recent polls.
PML-N president Nawaz Sharif has 'rewarded' Mr Iqbal for his long association by giving party tickets to his son Umer from a provincial seat from Rahim Yar Khan and his son-in-law Faisal Gujjar from a provincial seat in Abbotabad, as well as nominating his wife Begum Ishrat Ashraf, daughter Zaib and niece Maiza Hameed for reserved seats. He himself has already been sent to the senate.
Chaudhry Munir, who rose from a humble background to become one of the wealthiest businessmen of the country with his own private jets, came into the limelight during the period of Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi as chief minister of Punjab because of his close political and business relationships with the Chaudhries of Gujrat. In spite of his influence on the leadership of almost all major parties on account of his closeness to the royals in the Gulf, he prefers to keep a low profile and stays away from the media glare even in his hometown. Some even liken him to Malik Riaz of Bahria Town. "Both are rags-to-riches stories; both made money in the construction business; both enjoy considerable political clout in every major party. But the difference lies in their personalities. While Malik Riaz likes media glare, Chaudhry Munir prefers to work behind the scene," says a journalist based in Rahim Yar Khan.
There are two major factors for Chaudhry Munir throwing his weight behind the PML-N. "First, he doesn't see any chance of the revival of the PML-Q, or more precisely the Chaudhries of Gujrat. Second, it is rumoured that he has something personal with Makhdoom Syed Ahmed Mahmood," claims a local journalist.
The local PML-N leadership expects their party to give a good performance in this year's electoral race because the "wind is blowing the PML-N way" but also because of the political backing to its candidates of Chaudhry Munir.
On the other hand, the Pakistan Peoples Party is hoping to improve upon its tally of four seats (NA-192 Liaquatpur, NA-193 Khanpur, NA-194 Khanpur-Rahim Yar Khan, and NA-196 Rahim Yar Khan City) to six.
"In the last election, the PPP had won four seats from the district. One (NA-195 Rahim Yar Khan-Jamal Din Wali) went to the PML-Functional, which was led by Makhdoom Syed Ahmed Mahmood before he joined the PPP a few months ago. Their alliance has boosted the chances of the PPP and it is better placed this time than ever before," a journalist from Khanpur argues. "To counter that the PML-N and Chaudhry Munir is mobilising the non-Seraiki, biradri-based vote by fielding good combinations of candidates representing Seraiki and settlers/Arain/Jat candidates from the national and provincial seats according to the size of their vote bank in different constituencies."
It could turn out to be tougher for the PPP than it looks on paper.

Windows 7 Home 64bit suddenly incredibly slow, almost unusable in norm
So I have been using my HP Pavilion g6 laptop for around a year now, and so far it has been smooth sailing. However, around a day or two ago, my computer suddenly became unbearably slow on normal mode. I would try to open google chrome and it would freeze up my computer, and even opening the start menu took an incredible amount of time. This was a sudden onset of slowness and I cannot remember if I installed any updates that may have caused this. Using even safe mode, opening the uninstall part of control panel would take ages. I have tried many things to fix this:
Used SFC/scannow, caused a crash.
Used disk check on safe mode, says that I need to defrag 1% of the disk. However, It also says there is a SMART check failure. I am quite confused about this because when I looked again it said that the smart status was "good". (HP support center)
Deleted temporary files
Checked task manager to see if there was any processes that were taking up too much memory, it looks good normally. However, on normal mode whenever I would open chrome the CPU would spike to 60%
Specs are: AMD A6-3400M APU with Radeon graphics.

In Reply to: Should posted by R. Berg on January 03, 2004
: : In listing the definitions of "should", the online dictionaries fail to mention that it can be used as a conjunction (specifically a subordinating conjunction). For example, consider the following sentence:
: : "Should time permit, the audience will be invited to ask questions."
: : One can substitute "If time permits" for "Should time permit" without changing the meaning. "If", when used in this context, is a subordinating conjunction. Wouldn't that make "Should" a subordinating conjunction too?
: : Is this a rare oversight by the dictionary publishers, or is this use of "Should" somehow grammatically incorrect?
: The use is correct. Print dictionaries tend to be more complete than online ones. The American Heritage Dictionary (print ed., 1969) introduces "should" by saying "Past tense of 'shall,' but more often used as an auxiliary verb expressing degrees of the present and future and for various shades of attendant meaning...." But it doesn't have an example parallel to yours; its closest is "If he should fall, then so would I."
: The OED treats uses of "should" in hypothetical statements within its long entry for "shall," which it labels a verb. The OED entry gives no basis for considering this kind of "should" anything but a verb.
I wish I could offer a knowledgable explanation of the subjunctive mood, and its sometime partnership with the conditional tenses. But I can't, so keep looking. However, generally a subjunctive clause with a change in normal word order can easily do without "if" or any other explicit conjunction. "Were I to fail, so would he." "Should he agree, then so shall I." "Had I but known I'd a brought something to eat." The OED is not a great place to look for discussion of grammar, but neither is the EB Online, generally speaking, although grammar is more germane to the EB than to the OED. SS

Kennedy adminstrators declined comment on the issue, citing a personnel matter.

Chae, Reichl look to impact ECR athletics
Former Van Nuys volleyball coach Dave Chae has resurfaced at El Camino Real and will look to provide experience for the Conquistadores boys program.
Chae, who teaches in ECR's math department, went 214-114 during his 10-year tenure at Van Nuys.
"He is accomplished and recognized in the City Section community," Conquistadores Athletic Director Richard Yi said. "We hope that he will inject his enthusiasm and experience in our volleyball program."
Former Royal cross country and track standout Jun Reichl was hired to work in ECR's science department and will also contribute as an assistant for the Conquistadores in both sports. Reichl competed in track and cross country at UCLA from 2007-11.
"We will see if the student-athletes will be able to keep up with him," Yi said. "We are excited to have both join our teaching staff and look forward to the contributions both of these teachers will make in continuing our traditions of Academic and Athletic Excellence at ECR."

ADELANTO >> Members of two youth immigrant advocacy groups plan to hold a news conference Monday outside the privately run Adelanto Detention Facility East to demand the release of three prisoners.
The move comes amid a highly critical and recently released report by the nonprofit immigrant advocacy group Detention Watch Network.
The report details alleged abuses of prisoners at the Adelanto facility and nine other similar institutions across the nation where immigrants whose citizenship is in question have been detained by U.S. Immigration Customs Enforcement, or ICE, to await federal deportation hearings.
The Adelanto Detention Facility East, referenced in the recently released report, is a privately run company not to be confused with the San Bernardino County-operated Adelanto Detention Center.
Among the prisoners whose stories will be told by members of the Inland Empire Youth Coalition and the California Youth Justice Alliance are those of Carlos A. Hidalgo of Azusa, who remains in custody awaiting his U-Visa certification, Jose Santos Maltez, an Echo Park father of four who has lived in the U.S. for the past 10 years and has been in federal holding in Adelanto since March, and Artyom Karapetyan, an Armenian business owner and green card holder, said Alessandro Negrete, statewide coordinator for the California Immigrant Youth Justice Alliance.
"We're going to ask them to release these individuals, because they all have minor infractions," Negrete said.
In the post-9-11 era, the federal government has implemented a mandatory detention policy for immigrants of questionable citizenship status.
The system is so massive and mismanaged that ICE is incapable of overseeing it, resorting to outsourcing operations to predatory private prison companies and rural jails seeking to supplement their incomes, according to the Detention Watch Network report "Expose & Close, One Year Later: The Absence of Accountability in Immigration Detention," released on Nov. 19.
Among the report's key findings: prisoners going long periods without food. When they are served food, it is often rotten and infested with worms or maggots. When families come to visit, they sometimes have to pay a fee and can only talk to their loved one via closed-circuit television.
Another common thread at all the facilities examined in the report: substandard physical and mental health care that leaves prisoners with even the most serious of ailments with nothing more than a dose of Tylenol or ibruprofen. Neglect and lack of proper health care sometimes results in prisoner suicides, according to the report.
ICE is committed to upholding an immigration detention system that prioritizes the health, safety and welfare of all those in their care, and all facilities that are authorized to hold long-term immigration detainees, including Adelanto, undergo rigorous, regular inspections to ensure the welfare of those housed there, said ICE spokeswoman Virginia Kice.
"I think your readers also need to understand that the vast majority of immigration detainees housed at the Adelanto facility have prior criminal convictions, including a significant number whose criminal histories are serious enough that ICE is required by law to hold them while their immigration cases are pending," Kice said in an email.
The recently released report by Detention Watch Now counters ICE's defense of the treatment its immigrant detainees receive at the lockups it contracts with.
Detention Watch Now is now calling for ICE to close the worst detention centers, which are highlighted in the report, including Adelanto, where straitjackets and solitary confinement are used to punish and deter immigrants from reporting mental health issues, according to the report.
A former staff psychiatrist at the facility and whistleblower reported that suicidal detainees were ordered to strip and placed in a "suicide watch room." The complaining doctor's recommendation to refer such detainees to properly staffed hospitals was often rebuffed by detention facility staff, according to the report.
"These people are just going to be deported and referral out is costly," the complaining doctor quotes one Adelanto staff remember saying.
The psychiatrist at Adelanto also complained that the facility provides mental health services via video conferencing to keep costs for mental health care low. Immigrants in detention are connected by video to a psychiatrist located outside the facility, sometimes even in another country.
The Adelanto Detention Facility East is owned by the Boca Raton, Fla.-based corporation The GEO Group. On its website, the company touts itself as the "world's leading provider of correctional and detention management and community re-entry services to federal, state and local government agencies."
Representatives of The GEO Group couldn't immediately be reached for comment.

Hello everyone,
I'm new to the forum - brought here because I've won a ferry crossing from Dover to Dunkerque, which I'll probably be taking in January.
I intend to travel out of Dunkerque for a long weekend break (Friday - Monday) but I don't know where to go!
Obviously it might be cold and wet, so a trip that includes the option of ducking inside if the weather turns nasty would be super. My partner and I will be travelling with our toddler, so the ideal trip includes activities for an energetic boy!
My only idea so far is Disneyland Paris - but will that be good in January? Any other good ideas for weekend breaks that are within driving distance of Dunkerque?
All suggestions are much appreciated!

I've always been a fan of both the ready welder and also the premier power welder. The ready welder is a portable mig gun. The premier welder is an onboard system that is mounted under the hood and uses a H.O. alternator. The premier system can be used as a arc welder mig welder or tig. It can charge batteries and also has a 110v 20A outlet to run power tools.

If you connect the negatives together and the positives together (parallel) you will increase the amps.
If you use this as a welder on the trail just make sure all batteries are disconnected from the vehicles and of course that you have at least one battery to start your vehicle.

Thanks! This comes in handy just to carry around some 7018 welding rod and extra jumper cables as you will never know!!!

Old thread resurrection. Any one have experience with the Premier Power Welding setup or another like it. I have all the things necessary to weld with dual batteries, but I want to get something that is more turn key and easy to use on the trail.

Putin Discusses National Security with Solzhenitsyn's Widow
Yesterday Natalya Solzhenitsyn told the Russian president about a two-volume book being published to celebrate 50 years of One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich. She also said that Russia's national security and integrity are at risk. Kommersant's special correspondent Andrei Kolesnikov believes the Tykwer/Wachowski film Cloud Atlas could help improve this.
The president and Alexander Solzhenitsyn's widow met 50 years after One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich saw the light of day. Natalya Solzhenitsyn said the special commemorative edition includes One Day and readers' letters to the magazine Novy Mir, which published it. The magazine kept these letters, many of which were addressed simply to "Ivan Denisovich," for 50 years.
Natalya Solzhenitsyn spoke simply and to the point: "The reason to publish these books is to preserve our collective memory. It's a remedy for memory loss, which is a weak person's, a weak society's and a weak state's disease."
Putin asked if Solzhenitsyn's works are on the list of required reading in schools.
Natalya Solzhenitsyn said One Day was added to the curricula during Boris Yeltsin's presidency. "As for The Gulag Archipelago, it's only recommended reading and no questions about it have been added to the Unified State Examination list," she said.
But if The Gulag Archipelago were to be made obligatory reading, students would have little time left to read the other books on the list, like Dostoyevsky.
"As for national security," Natalya said unexpectedly, inciting the interest of Putin, who knows that Novy Mir is not alone in keeping archives.
"The number of literature courses has been cut from five to two," she said. "In my time, people quoted from [Griboyedov's] Woe from Wit, which formed a bond between them."
Now they are only brought together by the Unified State Examination and even that is not everyone and not for long.
"What are they teaching people in place of literature? To smile at each other?" Natalya wondered.
"The number of school subjects is increasing," Putin argued.
"That is completely wrong," Natalya Solzhenitsyn replied. It was as if Solzhenitsyn himself was talking with the president.
"There is a great threat to the country's unity," she said.
"We will discuss this issue with the Education Ministry," Putin said, although security falls under the purview of the defense department.
In Cloud Atlas, the latest film by Lana and Andy Wachowski and Tom Tykwer, the main character watches a trailer from a prohibited documentary quoting Alexander Solzhenitsyn, and that phrase resonates throughout the film, a film that tells viewers about freedom and eternity.
It does not matter whether or not The Gulag Archipelago is made obligatory reading in school, because Alexander Solzhenitsyn, a perfectly free man, has already become part of eternity.
And those who have not read The Gulag will at least see Cloud Atlas.
Sarkozy May Guide Mikhail Fridman to Global Expansion
Ex-president of France Nicolas Sarkozy and his wife Carla Bruni are planning a private visit to Moscow. The former resident of the Elysee Palace is expected to attend a closed reception held by Russian businessman Mikhail Fridman, board member of Alfa Bank.
Sarkozy will attend an awards ceremony for the best investments in Russia, to take place on November 13 at the Reception House of the Foreign Ministry. The award was founded over ten years ago by Alfa Bank and the University of Oxford.
"Nicolas Sarkozy will be our special guest," confirmed Leonid Ignat, Director of Information Policy and Public Relations at Alfa Bank.
Ignat said the ex-president will give a speech and announce the winner. The ceremony is a private event so no media presence is expected.
"Last year we invited former British Prime Minister Gordon Brown. Czech President, Václav Klaus, attended the year before, and the former Mayor of New York City Rudolph Giuliani was here three years ago."
"It's common for former leaders to attend high-profile events for compensation. While someone like Mikhail Gorbachev does commercials for pizza, others promote innovation," says Alexey Mukhin, General Director of the Center for Political Information.
Viktor Averkov of the Governance and Problem Analysis Center notes that Nicolas Sarkozy may also be in town to lobby for Rosneft's acquisition of TNK-BP, which is partially owned by Fridman (via AAR Consortium that comprises Fridman's Alfa Group, Leonard Blavatnik's Access Industries and Viktor Vekselberg's Renova). Russian shareholders stand to profit heavily from the deal. Moreover, they intend to invest the funds in foreign enterprises.
"This is an ambitious undertaking that requires both substantial expense and political protection," says Averkov. "In other words, they need approval from both the Russian government and foreign leaders. Sarkozy could help."
In fact, many top Russian businessmen have high-ranking political partners abroad.
"Oleg Deripaska, for example, established a relationship with Lord Peter Mandelson, former UK government minister," says Averkov. "At any rate, Sarkozy is just a link in the chain Fridman is building to become an international businessman."
The political scientist said: "VimpelCom has basically reached the global market. Alfa Bank and X5 are still mainly Russia-based, but there is a good chance they will be expanding abroad."
Public Sector Accounts for Half Russia's Economy
State-owned company funds can be spent on mega-projects with little control, while state influence may continue to grow. The share of state-controlled companies in the Russian economy has substantially increased, say experts.
Yulia Tseplyaeva and Yury Yeltsov of BNP Paribas write, for example, that the state controlled 10% of oil production in 1998-1999 and 40% to 45% now.
The percent in the banking sector has increased to 49% and in transport, to 73%. In 2006, according to Gaidar Institute estimates, the public sector accounted for 38% of the economy, but exceeded 40% in 2008.
The economic crisis accelerated the process: the public sector has risen to 50% of GDP, according to the Ministry of Economic Development, compared with a global average of 30%.
The line between the state's financial resources and those of state-owned companies is becoming fuzzier, experts add. State-controlled companies are, in effect, creating a "parallel budget" for ambitious projects, which seldom if ever match the companies' real businesses.
Gazprom is a major investor in the 2014 Olympic Games, with over 100 billion rubles, and is second to the federal budget. (The federal government is spending 466 billion rubles.) Of that amount only 31.5 billion can be regarded as related to the company's direct business – the Dzhubga-Sochi gas pipeline. Gazprom spent 300 billion rubles on the APEC summit, compared with a government expense of 202 billion rubles.
Rosneft, according to BNP Paribas, invests $0.7-1 billion a year in social projects in places where it produces oil.
Sberbank's non-core investments are estimated by BNP Paribas at $1 billion per year.
This kind of "cooperation" between state-owned companies and government acts as a disincentive to privatization, Tseplyaeva believes. The earnings will not surpass the investment by state giants in large government projects. Despite the talk of privatization, she says, the government's share is likely to increase rather than decrease.
In 2013-2014, privatization is expected to bring in 1.24 trillion rubles (about $40 billion), but that is less than Rosneft's deal with TNK-BP (around $60 billion), says Sergei Guriyev, rector of the Russian School of Economics.
This "parallel budget" makes government spending less transparent and increases the potential for manipulation; it's beyond the treasury's eye, Tseplyaeva complains.
Increasing the huge funds and resources of state-controlled companies does not increase happiness, says Russia's former finance minister Alexei Kudrin. "Look at Gazprom," he says. "In the past it was one of the world's top companies for capitalization. Now its capitalization is down by many times. Multinational investment companies are already anticipating a 100 billion ruble loss, and this is a calculated value that reflects the low quality of Gazprom management."
According to Troika Dialog estimates, the state has lost some $80 billion in the value of the shares it owns over the past four years due to the increased risk of investing here. One reason for this is investor awareness of the fact that the state missed chances for reforms at favorable periods of high oil prices.

According to at least one investigative journalist, the U.S. can't stop inadvertently paying the enemy in Afghanistan.
How much? That's something we'll likely never know.
Time's Battleland blog held a chat with author Douglas A. Wissing who just published Funding the Enemy: How U.S. Taxpayers Bankroll the Taliban. The gist of his message:
"I spent time in Afghanistan and in Washington trying to track that number down. One day at the U.S. embassy in Kabul, an American official serving in the Afghan Threat Finance Cell (ATFC) talked to me. …
The official told me that U.S. government officials estimated the insurgents' annual budget to be in the hundreds of millions of dollars. "Is it $1 billion? $500 million? The total amount is a tail people are going to chase until the end of time," he told me. "We know they are raising substantial amounts of money; they can finance their operations. If you take away the Gulf money, they can make it up. If you take away the narco money, they can make it up. It's like punching Jello.
The official confirmed the U.S. and civilian reports that the insurgents used extortion of U.S. development and logistics contracts for their funding. ..."

Mosley and The Acolytes in concert
Max Mosley and no fewer than four of his FIA acolytes had lunch twice last week in London with assorted members of the motor racing media. The Mole has been to a few of these events over the years but decided this year to send a stand-in because the lunch to which he was invited clashed with the opening of the Retromobile Show in Paris. Looking at old cars and talking to silly old farts in cloth caps seemed to The Mole to be a rather more appealing idea on this occasion than listening to Mosley and The Acolytes in concert.
In fact The Acolytes did not get much of a chance to sing. Mosley held centre stage, as he is prone to do on such occasions, and the spotlight stayed firmly on the FIA's answer to Mick Jagger as he delivered his message (there is always a message at these events). Mosley's appeal on this occasion sounded a bit more like Bob Geldof as he tried to convince the audience that he would like to help the smaller Formula 1 teams lest they all fall victim to these economically-undesirable times.
Mosley the Missionary was not very convincing. His ideas did not seem to be very realistic and the idea of a Utopian Grand Prix getting a place on the F1 calendar is not very likely given the troubles that China and other new venues have had over the years.
Saving money in F1 is a concept as lost as The Fine Young Cannibals. If you force teams to spend less in one area of the business, they will spend more in another. Budgets never come down unless the money supply dries up. Those that do not have money will always suffer. The big fish survive and the whitebait get fried. These are the facts of life.
The only way in which small teams could really save money is if they were to be given free engines. Unfortunately the Red Cross does not make Formula 1 engines (although they could afford to given the donations which have come in since September 11) and the men who run the world's car companies are too busy cutting jobs to save money to worry about such grand gestures. The only way they will agree to such ideas is if they were forced to do so.
Mosley could make that happen by a change to the Sporting Regulations but that would require the agreement of the FIA Formula 1 Commission. This body is made up of Mosley, the 11 team owners (Alain Prost no longer being welcome at these parties), eight race promoters, two sponsors, one tyre company and one engine manufacturer. And, of course, Bernie Ecclestone, who represents the F1 commercial rights holder Leo Kirch.
In order to change a sporting regulation this body must have 18 votes in favour of a decision. In order to get the engine rules changed Mosley would need to count on the promoters, the sponsors, the tyre companies, Ecclestone and at least five team owners. At the moment only three teams are paying for engines: Sauber, Minardi and Arrows and it is not in anyone else's interest to vote for the change. Support might be found for free-thinking folk at Williams and McLaren, which are independent of car manufacturers but in league with them, but it is not very likely as they want to benefit from exclusive engine supplies.
Mosley's other ideas expressed over lunch were similarly odd. He is suggesting that cars be allowed to use only one engine during a race weekend and that if this engine breaks or loses power the car could have a new engine but would be penalised by having to start halfway down the grid. Mosley said this would save money because it is very expensive to build 50 or 60 engines every year.
Once again this is not very realistic because the money that a car manufacturer would save in production costs (which would be minimal because the machinery needed to make engines will be the same) would be shuffled quietly into research and development and not given back to the company's chief financial officer. No money would be saved.
The third idea which Mosley came up with is that the engine formula could be changed before the end of the current stability agreement, which runs until the end of 2007.
Mosley suggested that a change to 2.4-litre V8 engines would be cheap because manufacturers could simply lop two cylinders off the existing 3-litre V10 units. This would cut the power down and so avoid the embarrassing situation of engines kicking out 900 horsepower at a time when the car manufacturers and the FIA are trying to appear as environmentally-friendly as possible.
The idea of cost is often cited when it is decided to change engine rules but the fact is that a new engine programme costs more money than an existing one because of the research and development necessary for a design. Initially investment brings big returns but the same level of money is spent in ensuing years as development becomes more exotic. The best way to save money, therefore, is to leave the rules as they are until the engineers run out of new ideas.
The danger of the ideas expressed by Mosley over lunch is that they might drive away manufacturer interest in F1. This not something that the federation wants to see because manufacturer interest helps to keep the motor racing industry awash with cash and at a very high profile.
The Mole is of the opinion that Mosley is taking quite a risk with these ideas because driving out the manufacturers is something that Leo Kirch would probably like to see at the moment as the car companies are planning to spoil his party by starting their own World Championship in 2008. Mosley cannot really afford to be seen to be helping Kirch too much because the federation has agreed not to get involved in the commercial side of the sport and if there were suspicions that the FIA and Kirch were in league the bureaucrats of Brussels would soon be back, knocking at the door of the FIA in Geneva and talking about competition issues.
Mosley and The Acolytes are dancing on a minefield and it would be wisest for them to find a new song to sing. The Mole suggests The Beatles classic "Let it be".

Paris, Oct 23 (IANS) Saina Nehwal and P.V. Sindhu advanced to the women's singles Round 2 but comeback doubles pair Jwala Gutta and Ashwini Ponnappa lost at the French Open Super Series here Wednesday.
Sindhu accounted for South Korea's Ji Hyun Sung as she thrashed the sixth seed 21-8, 21-12 in less than half an hour at the Stade Pierre de Coubertin. The World No. 10 showed her superb prowess to beat Ji and win her third consecutive match. The South Korean has been in excellent form lately, having beaten Saina and reaching the final of the Denmark Open Super Series Premier last week.
Fourth seed Saina Nehwal had to overcome Thailand's Nichaon Jindapon in a tough 52-minute battle to progress to the pre-quarters. The World No. 4 won 12-21, 21-16, 21-13 to take a 2-0 lead in career meets over the Thai.
In the next round, the Olympic bronze medallist faces a tricky challenge in the face of Ji's compatriot, Yeon Ju Bae. Though the Hyderabadi has a 5-3 head-to-head against Yeon, it was the South Korean who dashed Saina's hopes at the World Championships in August.
In another women's singles clash, Thailand's Porntip Buranaprasertsuk beat Nagpur girl Arundhati Pantawane 21-17, 16-21, 21-14 in 45 minutes in the first round.
Earlier in the day, Indonesians Gebby Ristiyani Imawan and Tiara Rosalia Nuraidah took care of India's most successful women's doubles combine Jwala and Ashwini. The duo were making a comeback, playing their first match together since the London Games, and lost 18-21, 21-13, 17-21 in 50 minutes in the first round.
It was a good day for Indian men's singles shuttlers as Anand Pawar and K. Srikanth scored victories in their first round clashes. While Mumbai's Pawar beat French Thomas Rouxel 21-9, 24-22 in 37 minutes, Srikanth scored an upset win over Hong Kong's World No. 12 Wing Ki Wong. The Thailand Open Grand Prix Gold winner took the match 21-14, 17-21, 21-10 in 47 minutes to level his head-to-head to one-all.
In the second round, Srikanth will take on his old nemesis, sixth seed Boonsak Ponsana, whom the Indian beat in the final of Thailand Open to take the title.

RISING teen star JAKE BUGG says NOEL GALLAGHER is behaving himself on tour.
The former OASIS hero invited the Nottingham-born singer-songwriter to
support him on his European shows after he saw him on YouTube.
But he says there's none of the debauchery you might expect on the road with
Jake said: "Noel is looking after himself, making sure he has plenty of rest
and stuff.
"We've had a couple of drinks, but not too many though as obviously as we're
on the road and have to try and be healthy.
"We have to make sure we get enough sleep, get practice in and don't ruin our
When asked if Noel's wild days are behind him, Jake replied: "I'd say so.
"I try my best but being 18 it can be quite difficult."
Jake took a break from the tour to perform tracks from his eponymous
debut album in a rare acoustic set at The Sun's studios.
He switched up his Fifties style rock 'n' roll tunes Lightning Bolt and Taste
It with a cool cover of MICHAEL KIWANUKA's Tell Me A Tale.
Reverting back to tour chatter, humble Jake revealed he opted for a bed in a
tour van rather than a fancy hotel.
He added: "We're in a little van at the moment. We're not spending loads. We
don't want to look like we're bigger than we are."
But despite his no-frills approach, Jake admits he has to pinch himself to
believe how far he's come in the past year.
After his tour with Noel, he's heading to the US with Snow Patrol.
He said: "It's a dream come true. I was a big Oasis fan and Noel is a great
songwriter so it's obviously brilliant to be on tour with him.
"I've played at some amazing places and some of the gigs have been the biggest
I've done."
He continued: "I am looking forward to going to the States, especially all the
inland States and cities. And to go with Snow Patrol is incredible."
Jake Bugg's self-titled album is out on Sunday.

Lectio Divina
I've never contemplated the notion of light being sown. The LXX has "light dawns." But when we think of sowing a seed, and how our Lord likens His life to a grain of wheat falling into the earth and dying, I wonder if we can see in our Lord's death and his Descent, the sowing of LIGHT into the realm and power of darkness. I am reminded of the ancient homily in the Roman office of readings for Holy Saturday where a light suddenly bursts upon those who were sitting in the nether gloom.
Completely unrelated: how do those who insist that "justify" always means "make righteous" possibly explain the use of the term in Luke 16:15: "You are those who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts"?

Either we receive God's righteousness in Christ as he speaks it to us by faith or we seek to make ourselves righteous in this world.
- Chris Jones said...
Who are those who say "justify" always means "make righteous"? Clearly it can mean "make righteous," "declare to be righteous," or even "claim to be righteous" (as in this passage).
Even if "make righteous" is the primary meaning (as I think it is), the meaning when used with the reflexive pronoun (as in δικαιουντες εαυτους) will not necessarily be the same. After all, even if you translate δικαιουντες εαυτους ενωπιον των ανθρωπων as "making themselves righteous in the sight of men" it still conveys the sense of "claiming righteousness" rather than that of an actual transformation into righteousness. It's the qualifier "in the sight of" that makes it clear that it is an apparent and subjective perception of righteousness that is being spoken of. That gives us the context that indicates that δικαιουντες has the sense of a claim of righteousness rather than the reality.
So I don't think this verse implies that "justify" generally means "make righteous." But not always -- again, I don't know anybody who claims that it always means that.
- William Weedon said...
I was thinking specifically of the Roman tendency to insist that justification chiefly (I should have said that rather than always) means MAKING righteous; the Lutheran Symbols, of course, grant that Scripture speaks both ways (pronouncing and making), and I've written plenty before on why I think the two are intimately connected for God's declaration creates exactly what it says.
But "regard" seems clearly in the semantic domain in Luke 16 - they justify themselves before mean, meaning they wish to be regarded or accounted or considered as righteous. Similarly in Luke 7:29 - it struck me then too when we were reading that - the people "justified God." They didn't MAKE God righteous, but they declared that he was just, regarded him as righteous.
I always think of your wife this time of the year, my friend. My garden has Irises popping all over. Give her my regards.

Study: Not all vehicles compatible with car seats
Posted September 15, 2015
A new study set to be released by the Ohio State University College of Medicine suggests that many cars may not match up well with certain child safety seats.
Researchers measured the angles of back seats, their width and the role headrests play. They tested 59 car seats in 61 vehicles for a total of 3,600 different combinations, finding that car seats weren't compatible about 40 percent of the time.
Megan Murphy is like many new moms. When her son was born, she carefully chose what she thought was the best safety seat for him. When she put it in her car, however, she had to use a pool noodle to make it fit right.
"I thought we had a pretty standard car that pretty much any car seat would work," she said.
OSU researcher Julie Bing, who led the study, said pool noodles and other do-it-yourself fixes are needed to make seats fit.
"Roughly 35 percent of the time you would need that pool noodle or towel to kind of tip the seat back to where it belongs," she said.
Before parents go shopping, Bing says they should measure the back seat of their vehicle to compare the dimensions with the different brands and models of seats. Parents should also ask to try it before they buy.
Headrests often interfere with the fit of forward-facing seats, so parents should measure the height of the headrest in the back seat of cars and see if it can be either adjusted or removed.
"It might look great on the shelf and have all these great safety ratings, but if it doesn't fit in your vehicle then it may not be the best option for you," Bing said. "We really recommend that parents see if they can try it in their vehicle before they purchase it."
Another recommendation is that parents get professional help to install car seats. Many hospitals have programs that helps parents fit seats before they take newborns home.
In Wake County this week, car seat checks will be provided by certified child passenger safety technicians at the following locations:
- Wednesday, 2 to 4 p.m. in the Target parking lot in Knightdale
- Thursday, 2 to 4 p.m. at the Wake County Human Services Public Health Center

Here's a project that caught my eye, created by Hampus Jageland when at Maud.
"Edgeboard are handmade chopping boards from the Northern Beaches in NSW that possess a special feature; an edge which you use to slide off the chopped food against. They use a natural anti-bacterial wood sourced form the Byron Shire.
"The identity is based on the board's special feature, the edge, and the brand comes to life using the edge in any any application. A simple, structured logo is used in combination with textured and environmentally friendly stocks."

ONE of the world's least cycle-friendly cities, Moscow, will launch its first bicycle sharing scheme allowing residents to pedal around for free.
The scheme, similar to those already in place in cities such as London and Paris, will start on a modest scale with 1000 bicycles placed at 50 stands around the city centre.
"This gives us hope that civilisation is coming to our city,'' said Sergei Yakobson, who runs a website that urges people to ditch cars for the saddle.
"If 15 per cent of drivers used the system this summer, we would breathe more easily in Moscow,'' said the president of the Federation of Russian Car-Owners, Sergei Kanayev.
On Tverskoi Bulvar in central Moscow, on the eve of the scheme's launch, the bright-red bikes in racks were attracting plenty of attention.
"The idea is great, especially the first free half-hour and the second half-hour for 30 rubles ($1). But the city is not designed for cycling. It will be dangerous as soon as you get out of the small quiet streets and find yourself in the snarled traffic,'' said Alyona, 22, a medical student.
The city is severely lacking in cycle paths and most cyclists stay on the pavements.
Moscow city hall has announced that it will develop a total of 131 kilometres of cycle paths by the end of this year, a tiny figure compared with other large cities.
New York has more than 1100 kilometres of cycle paths while Stockholm has 760 kilometres , Berlin has 620 kilometres and Paris has 440 kilometres.
"We lack cycle paths in Moscow. If the bike-sharing scheme works, it will be outside the city centre,'' said Zinaida Azarenkova, an expert at the Central Institute of Town-Planning in Moscow.
"The centre is packed with vehicles and there is not a single cycle path.''
Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said in October that the priority to increase bike use in Moscow was not to lay out more cycle paths, however, but to increase the number of bike racks and cycle-hire businesses.
The first bike-sharing stands will open on the "Boulevard Ring,'' a tree-lined pedestrian strip that runs round the city centre and is safe for cyclists.
The scheme is set to expand to 120 stands and around 1700 bicycles by the end of July.
The bike-sharing stands are set to close in late October, but could stay open in winter if there are enough people who are keen to cycle in snow and ice and temperatures plunging to -30 degrees celsius.
"If there is demand, we will continue in the winter months,'' said the deputy mayor in charge of transport, Maxim Liksutov.

The Best Americana of 2014
3 Dec 2014 // 9:20 PM
If forced to define Americana, it's the one genre where honest craftsmanship is required, respected, and rewarded, something the best of 2014 lived up to.
The Best Americana of 2012
20 Dec 2012 // 5:00 PM
Americana meant different things to different people this year, with revitalized legends and young traditionalists offering new visions of American music.
John Fullbright: Songs

Songs is not so much a veering departure as it is a deliberately studied variation on a theme.

It's no surprise that a wave of hype accompanies Fullbright. His Oklahoma origins and his lyrical sophistication immediately put you in mind of other Southwestern songwriters like Townes Van Zandt or Guy Clark.

Amsterdam - The city of Amsterdam said on Tuesday it will raise the legal age of prostitutes from 18 to 21 and announced plans to close brothels during the early morning hours in a bid to protect sex workers.
"The minimum age for a prostitute is raised from 18 to 21 years," the Dutch capital city announced in a statement, and said the new rules are meant to fight industry abuses and "strengthen prostitutes' position."
The city also wants brothels in Amsterdam's landmark red-light district to close between 4am and 9am on weekdays and from 5am on weekends.
"At the moment, there isn't much surveillance and social controls during these hours," it said, noting that as a result "it is more dangerous to work and prostitutes have to deal with drunk and aggressive clients during these hours."
With an estimated 5 000 to 8 000 prostitutes, the city's red-light district attracts sex tourists from around the world to a country long considered one of the world's most liberal.
Observers have pointed to a move in recent years towards conservatism, including efforts to curtail legal soft drug use and prostitution.
Amsterdam says it wants to decrease the number of sex workers in a move to fight crime generated by prostitution, which was legalised in the Netherlands in 2000. - AFP

O Master and God, please help me to be strong enough to withstand the betrayal of those close to me. Please let me never outlive my love for your Son. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
Jesus was leaving the temple area. One of his followers said to him, "Look, Teacher! This temple has very beautiful buildings with very big stones." Jesus said, "Are you looking at these great buildings? They will all be destroyed. Every stone will be thrown down to the ground. Not one stone will be left on another." Later, Jesus was sitting at a place on the Mount of Olives. He was alone with Peter, James, John, and Andrew. They could all see the temple. Those followers asked Jesus, "Tell us, when will these things happen? And what will show us it is time for these things to happen?" Jesus said to the followers: "Be careful! Don't let any person fool you. Many people will come and use my name. They will say, 'I am the One.' And they will fool many people. You will hear about wars that are being fought. And you will hear stories about other wars beginning. But don't be afraid. These things must happen before the end comes. Nations will fight against other nations. Kingdoms will fight against other kingdoms. There will be times when there is no food for people to eat. And there will be earthquakes in different places. These things are like the first pains when something new is born. "You must be careful. People will arrest you and take you to be judged. They will beat you in their synagogues. You will be forced to stand before kings and governors. You will tell them about me. This will happen to you because you follow me. Before these things happen, the Good News must be told to all people. You will be arrested and judged. But don't worry about what you should say. Say the things God gives you to say at that time. It will not really be you speaking. It will be the Holy Spirit speaking. "Brothers will turn against their own brothers and give them to be killed. Fathers will turn against their own children and give them to be killed. Children will fight against their own parents and find ways for their parents to be killed. All people will hate you because you follow me.But the person that continues strong until the end will be saved.
"If the world hates you, remember that the world hated me first. If you belonged to the world, then the world would love you like it loves its own people. But I have chosen you out of the world. So you don't belong to the world. That is why the world hates you. Remember the lesson I told you: A servant is not greater than his master. If people did wrong to me, then they will do wrong to you too. And if people obeyed my teaching, then they will obey yours too. People will do all this to you because of me. They don't know the One who sent me.
This is the teaching you have heard from the beginning: We must love each other. Don't be like Cain. Cain belonged to the Evil One (the devil). Cain killed his brother {Abel }. But why did Cain kill his brother? Because the things Cain did were evil, and the things his brother {Abel} did were good. Brothers and sisters, don't be surprised when the people of this world hate you.
Many people were traveling with Jesus. Jesus said to the people, "If a person comes to me, but will not leave his father, mother, wife, children, brothers, or sisters, then that person cannot be my follower. A person must love me more than he loves anything—even his own life! If a person will not carry the cross (suffering) that is given to him when he follows me, then that person cannot be my follower.
What Jesus Did is a one-year devotional guide through the gospels, using one short passage each day and following the Gospel in consecutive order. Each devotional consists of a passage, reflection and a prayer which opens up the day's scripture and shows how it challenges you to live for Jesus.
What Jesus Did! is written by Phil Ware.
