A lesson on Islamic Law for Newt Gingrich.
Latino GOP gubernatorial candidate in Nevada is cool with SB 1070 cuz his kids "look white." I'm sure this won't mess them up at all.
Vincent Gray cares about process. Not clear what else he cares about.
This is the most tone deaf I've ever heard the president sound.
OK, Glenn Beck is being his usual paranoid self here, but he has a point:
Sen. Lindsey Graham abandoned the immigration plan he helped write in favor of the climate bill he also helped write and later abandoned. But that doesn't mean he's not interested in working on immigration issues; it's just that his priority now is repealing the 14th Amendment that grants citizenship to everyone born on American soil:
"I may introduce a constitutional amendment that changes the rules if you have a child here," Graham said during an interview with Fox News' Greta Van Susteren. "Birthright citizenship I think is a mistake, that we should change our Constitution and say if you come here illegally and you have a child, that child's automatically not a citizen."
Are you surprised?
The New York Times' Brian Stelter tweeted that, according to Nielsen Media Research, Fox News has averaged just 29,000 black viewers in primetime so far this television season (9/09-7/10). That represents just 1.38% of its 2.102 million total viewer audience.
Civil libertarians have been trying to add more restrictions to the FBI's National Security Letters since their use exploded after the attacks of September 11th. NSLs, which allow the government to obtain private records from commercial and financial institutions without a warrant as long as they deem them "relevant" to an investigation -- with a gag order that stops companies from mentioning they've received them for good measure. Internal Justice Department reports have found NSLs are subject to widespread abuse. Last year, Sen.
Mark Halperin says what few dare to say -- "In many quarters of the old media, there is concern about not appearing liberally biased, so stories emanating from the right are given more weight and less scrutiny."
It ain't all about the filibuster.
For once, it's a happy day for civil libertarians. In Arizona, Judge Susan R. Bolton blocked many of the offending parts of Arizona's SB 1070 immigration law from going into effect today, including Section 2B, Section 3, and Section 5. The Fair Sentencing Act, which lowers the crack/powder cocaine disparity from 100:1 to 18:1, effectively making the law one-fifth as racist as it used to be, passed the House and is headed to the president's desk. That's coming on the heels of the Senate blocking the Democratic remedy to the Citizen's United decision, the DISCLOSE Act, which -- though it may surprise conservatives -- the ACLU opposed.
On SB 1070
I'll have more on Newt Gingrich's mainstreaming of Islamophobia later, but for now I want to point out one example of mangled context that Matt Duss left out of his thorough response:
Louis C.K. on white privilege and time travel:
Newt Gingrich helps outline the Mosque Exclusion Zone.
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad vs. Paul the "clairvoyant" octopus.
I thought I had hedged more in my original post on the Wikileaks Afghanistan documents about there being nothing new in them yet -- but I hadn't. So let me eat my words and point out that several people are finding interesting stuff in there, including Spencer Ackerman, who reports on Turkish Militants attacking American troops in 2007:
There's been some shock over this statement from Tennessee's lieutenant governor, Ron Ramsey, who is currently running for the GOP nomination in the governor's race:
You could even argue whether being a Muslim is actually a religion or is it a nationality, way of life or cult, whatever you want to call it.
Jesse Walker:
Although the Jedis did assist the Rebel Alliance in overthrowing a tyrannical emperor, it's clear that the Knights were originally set up to enforce the Galactic Senate's big government agenda.
Dan Drezner responds:
Jeffery Lord is desperate to keep embarrassing both himself and The American Spectator:
Random House Webster's College Dictionary defines lynching as: "to put to death, esp. hanging by mob action and without legal authority."
I have read the Court's decision. Three people are not a "mob." A mob is defined as a "large crowd." So there was no "mob action" because there was no mob. Second, the Supreme Court specifically said the Sheriff and his deputy and a local policeman acted "under color of law." Which means they had legal authority.

Tea Party groups pay conservative radio hosts, who tell their audiences to contribute to Tea Party groups. Everybody wins, except the people forking over their money.
Almost nowhere else is there such a tight link between class and opinions about cutting government.
For the GOP, there's no real benefit in admitting Obamacare is working.

WASHINGTON (Sept. 26, 2:30 p.m. ET) — The Australian agency that assesses risk from industrial chemicals says there is no indication from the data it has reviewed that suggests there should be a health concern from the use of the phthalate DINP in toys and child care products. The issue of whether DINP can be used in the United States long-term is still unresolved, as there currently is a temporary U.S. ban on DINP in toys and child care products.

How might linear and whorled nevoid hypermelanosis be treated?
There is very limited information regarding the treatment of linear and whorled nevoid hypermelanosis. Chemical peels and 2% hydroquinone for treatment of skin hyperpigmentation has been described.[1] Due to the possible association with chromosome abnormalities and other symptoms, each person with linear and whorled nevoid hypermelanosis should undergo a thorough evaluation for developmental delays, growth retardation, and skeletal anomalies, such as facial and body asymmetry, and congenital heart defects.[1]

Old Mac Game (please help me remember!)
Hi everyone - could you help me find the name of this old Mac game?
It was a 2D game from between 1993-1995 - most likely 1993 or 1994. You controlled a circular red guy that resembled Pac Man. Food fell from the top of the screen. It started with apples and moved onto fries, hamburgers, and other foods. You moved the circle-guy around to get the food (and points).
I think there were skulls that fell with the food (or some other threat). There were more skulls as the level progressed and it was harder and harder to stay alive. The only other thing I remember is that the high scores were are full with entries from "Marvin" (not sure if that helps at all).
Please help me remember the name of this game!

Pedro Astacio Rumors
Astros Interested In Paul Wilson, Pedro Astacio
Some interesting rumor bits courtesy of the Houston Chronicle's Richard Justice this morning...
Justice mentions that Tim Purpura is discussing a contract with Paul Wilson and examining Pedro Astacio's medical records. Wilson had a second labrum surgery in June and has been unable to regain velocity. Astacio tossed just 90 innings this year because of a strained forearm (often a precursor to an elbow injury).
The Astros could invite right fielder Richard Hidalgo to compete for a fourth outfielder job. I like the idea; Hidalgo has always been one of the game's best defensive RFs.
Justice also adds that after reviewing Taylor Buchholz's medical reports, the White Sox requested that Hunter Pence be added to the package of Jason Hirsh, Willy Taveras, and Buchholz for Jon Garland. Now that's just silly.

November 16, 2012
Fluvanna County High School students protested in between classes Friday morning. They're upset over the school board decision to make teacher take furlough days. They say they're afraid they are going to lose their teachers.
"The students in this high school are not ready to lose these quality teachers," said student Veronica Voronina. "We need these teachers. This is our education. This is our future."
The Fluvanna County Sheriff was called by school administrators to address the more than 200 protesters. Administrators say they were able to get students to disassemble before law enforcement arrived.
"I had them to walk the halls just to let the students know they were in the building," said school principal James Barlow. "They did not have to do anything towards forcing kids to go back to their class."
Students say the back and forth between county supervisors and the school board over budget problems is starting to have an impact on their education.
"Even though I was born in Russia, I call America my home. This country has given me so much opportunity and to see education crumble like this, its just very emotional for me," said Voronina.
It's an emotional issue that is a long way from being resolved.

New for September 2014:
U-M School of Nursing offers revised MS degree and programs
in Systems Leadership and Effectiveness Science
Applications accepted through May 1 for Fall 2014 admissions
As a top nursing school with a unified academic-practice environment, the University of Michigan School of Nursing (UMSN) is positioned to produce leaders who improve quality and control the cost of health care, test interventions in real world settings, and advance use of research findings by diverse populations. To ready these leaders, UMSN now has a division of "Systems Leadership and Effectiveness Science." The emerging discipline of effectiveness science uses comparisons and context to determine what treatments work for whom and in what setting. It helps consumers, clinicians, purchasers, and policy makers make informed decisions that will improve individual and population-level care by always using the best possible evidence.
This new UMSN division's flagship Master of Science degree program in Health Systems, Nursing Leadership, and Effectiveness Science offers two distinct areas of focus: Leadership and Informatics. In addition, both nurses and non-nurses can earn UMSN's Certificate in Health Informatics with completion of just 16 credits - which also prepares students to sit for a variety of informatics certifications.
Leadership focus: Provides the knowledge and skills needed to lead inter-professional teams in complex environments, assess the impact of health and communication technology, and improve efficiency of health systems and organizations; offers an access point for collaborative research and development of methods for integrating evidence-based practice in clinical and community settings.
Informatics focus: Provides a foundation for working with data in health communications, policy, research, and administration; enhances the expertise of those who see the challenges of our changing health system and want to play a role in its transformation.
Systems Leadership and Effectiveness Science at UMSN is accepting applications through May 1 for Fall 2014 admissions. With a web-blended curriculum, students attend approximately 4-8 distributed days of on-site classes each semester, supplemented by virtual learning experiences.

new build black screen
I'm a novice builder.
Put together following system:
MB: Intel DH67CL
CPU: Intel Core i3-2105
Mem: Corsair 4GB 2x2GB DDR3 1333 1.65v
HD: Western Dig Caviar Blue 7200 500MB
PSU Seasonic SS-300ET 300w
When I power on the fans come on, but nothing on monitor and no beeps from the board. I've put the memory one at a time in a different computer and boots OK. I've tried one mem stick at a time in this build with same result. I put HD in different computer and can bring online. Also put a different HD in new build with same result. So I'm thinking I have a bad MB and should RMA it. Anything else I should try? Am using onboard video btw.
Hi Sawbonz - Your Tech Spec calls for a minimum Power Supply of 460W. You can find that here. http://downloadmirror.intel.com/19488/eng/DH67CL_TechProdSpec03.pdf . Regards. Peter
Not easy to find that, but it says you need that much power if you are using a high end video card. I'm using onboard video. Also even with one mem stick and no optical drive connected it won't boot and no beeps. Not sure if that changes the power requirement?
Did you use a power supply calculator to determine the wattage required for your system? http://www.corsair.com/learn_n_explore/?psu=yes . Maybe you can borrow a power supply to check it out. Could you provide the part number of your Corsair memory. Also, you can check out this link. http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/CS-010254.htm#powersupplyissues . Regards. Peter
memory = http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145299
I tried the Corsair link and the smallest PSU it suggested was 430w. So I ordered a new 520w {http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151094} to give me a bit of a cushion. I'll repost when it arrives to let you know if that fixed the problem. Thanks for the advice and time.
Sawbonz - You should compare your memory with the specs in the tech spec. I note the spec said 1.5v and your memory is 1.65v. What you have may work but it is worth checking. Good luck. Peter
Well there are mixed messages about that. In one place it says there is an option to raise voltage for higher performance and as long as it is SPD memory that the BIOS will configure for optimal performance. I found another place that said 1.5v was recommended and default and other settings were for performance tuning only. It's a good thing I started with a cheap build.
I am guessing that the 1.65v will work because the timings will be adjusted from 8 to 9 by SPD. If you can exchange the RAM for 1.5v, I would do it because that is one less issue to be concerned about. Regards. Peter
So replaced the PSU with 520w one and replaced memory with 1.5v sticks. And no change. Fans spin, no video feed, no post beeps. I still get beeps if I pull all the memory. Waiting now for RMA MB and keeping fingers crossed.

The amount of music one can store on an mp3 player is astounding. According to EveryiPod.com, an iPod classic possessing 160 gigabytes of empty storage can hold 40,000 songs. Although you have to wonder whether or not it's realistic to use up all of that space, you'd be surprised how many people capitalize on such an offer.
You sure that was a pickle you just ate? For all of the ingredients, additives, preservatives and other "-tives" that go into much of today's food products, people often wonder whether or not many of the items displayed in a grocery store or served in a restaurant are actually what they appear to be.
Very few things in life compare to watching a group of talented athletes play at the professional level. Still, many fans claim that athletic associations could do a better job of creating an incredible experience at a ballpark or hockey arena.
Between the natural disasters that occur on a regular basis and glaciers slowly fading out of existence, there certainly seems to be a fair amount of panic among the public related to the environment. It's easy to blame the big guys - oil companies and other corporations that routinely consume fossil fuels.

The Four Continents
An exhibition tracing the allegorical representation of Europe, Asia, Africa, and America on decorative objects since the 5th century. The more than 100 objects on display include ceramics, coins, glassware, maps, textiles, globes, wallpaper, and engravings. The 17th and 18th centuries are the main focus of the exhibition because of Europe's discovery of the New World. Most of the objects on view were formerly in the private collection of James Hazen Hyde.

The Power of Maps
The process of mapping and a look at maps as both records and symbols of changing perceptions of the world are documented in this exhibition celebrating the Columbus Quincentenary. More than 200 maps are on view, including a 15th-century clay tablet, a 17th-century Islamic celestial globe, an 18th-century scroll of the coast of China, and contemporary maps based on satellite imagery. The exhibition shows how every map expresses a point of view at the same time that it provides information, and how maps are used every day to shape our vision of who and where we are.

Scher Abundance
There is a show called MAPS at the Bryce Wolkowitz Gallery exhibiting an abundant selection of cartographic paintings by Paula Scher of Pentagram, including pieces painted between 1998 and 2010. You don't realize how big these paintings are when you see them online or reproduced as prints—for example, the World Trade map from 2010 is 92" high by 157" wide.

Constructive Maps
Descriptions of the world's informal settlements are often filled with two kinds of figures – images of families living and working in deeply impoverished conditions are matched with global urbanization statistics. Mediating between these two types of information is the process of enumeration and community mapping.

A pinch of salt
3-4 threads of saffron + 1 tbsp warm milk
2 charolis

When the property that eventually became Harborfront Park was first purchased by the Village of Port Jefferson 13…More years ago, there were very ambitious plans to develop the property for residents to enjoy themselves in full view of the Port Jefferson's beautiful waterfront. Since that time, the goal of the town has been realized and there's a 5.1-acre park stretching from the back of the Chandler building along the harbor behind the Village Center. Once this land housed a shipyard and an oil company terminal, now it hosts a playground for children, a water-spray splash area and a place to take in the sights of Long Island Sound with beach access and a pier.
The centerpiece of the park is the Landmark Sculpture showing four seamen as they carry the framework of a ship toward the harbor. The sculpture honors the shipbuilding history of Port Jeff. There's a promenade for walking along the newly-built bulkheads of the harbor and benches for sitting and taking in the view year-round. Also on-site is the seasonal ice skating rink completing the multi-use facility that the Village imagined Harborfront Park would eventually become.

Gulbis' mom told him to quit tennis in February
INDIAN WELLS, Calif. — Ernests Gulbis scored his first top 10 win since Wimbledon on Saturday, dismissing No. 9 Janko Tipsarevic 6-2, 6-0 in the second round of the BNP Paribas Open and extending his winning streak to 12 matches.
Gulbis has turned around his spiraling career over the last two weeks. He won eight matches as a qualifier in Delray Beach, Fla., en route to the title, and he's already won four matches as a qualifier at Indian Wells to make the third round of an ATP Masters 1000 for the first time since 2011.
And to think, his mom wanted him to quit the sport last month.
Gulbis began the 2013 season ranked outside the top 100 and chose to skip the Australian Open swing to stay in Europe to train. That decision didn't pay off immediately, though, and after losing in the first round of an ATP Challenger in Bergamo, Italy, in February, Gulbis said his mother told him to quit.
"I told her, 'Give me one more month,'" he said, laughing. "So now at least she's happy."
Quotes: Life according to Ernests Gulbis
Since Bergamo, Gulbis hasn't lost to anyone ranked outside the Top 10 and suffered only two losses, to Juan Martin Del Potro (Rotterdam) and Tomas Berdych (Marseille). Delray Beach was his first title since 2011 and vaulted him back into the top 100, at No. 67. Consistency has eluded the talented 24-year-old throughout his career, but he hopes things will be different this time.
"It's been really like a third chance now, fourth," he joked when asked about whether this was his second chance at the promising career he's capable of. "I hope it's my last one. I hope that this is the one where I make it.
"I want to play like I played when I was 15, 16, 17 years old, when I just came on tour. I played relaxed, aggressive tennis. I didn't think much. I just went for it. I didn't think how short or how big [my swing] is going. Just [the] ball came, I hit it. Then suddenly I started to think, you know, ball comes, what to do, and then how many steps and this and that. Then your just brain goes out of order.
"So story of my life, you know. I reach something, and then I destroy it. So now I'm going to reach something and I'm going to keep reaching something new, I hope."
Next up for Gulbis is 20th-seed Andreas Seppi. Win that match and he could take on Rafael Nadal in the fourth round.

John Schreiner's wine interest was fired by his first visit to the Napa Valley in 1975. Soon he began writing about wine in The Financial Post and in many other publications. He is the author of nine books on wine, beginning with The World of Canadian Wine, published in 1984. More recent writings have focused on the wines of British Columbia and on Icewine.
In 2002, the Okanagan Wine Festivals Society presented Schreiner with its Founders Award, presented annually since 1984 to recognize service to the British Columbia wine industry.
Born in 1936 at Indian Head, Sask., John grew up on a wheat farm. After graduating in arts from the University of Saskatchewan, he joined the Regina Leader-Post as a reporter and subsequently became the newspaper's chief political reporter in the Saskatchewan Legislature. In 1961 Schreiner joined the staff of The Financial Post in Toronto. He served in the paper's Montreal bureau from 1967 to 1969 and in 1973 became that newspaper's bureau chief in Vancouver. Since retiring in February 2001, Our Man in British Columbia has informed and entertained wine enthusiasts with a book-a-year, in addition to his other freelance writings.
