Sintesi dell'editore
"Writing a biography of the notoriously secretive Arnold Rothstein, a rum-and-drug-running, bookmaking loan shark who became one of the richest men in the world, is a gamble that, for the most part, pays off for Pietrusza." (Publishers Weekly)

Time well spent
Comprehensive period account for those interested in early 20th century American history. Narration was more than adequate but for some mispronunciation of Yiddish names, terms and idioms. The narrative timeline was sometimes disjointed (major disadvantage in audiobook). Held my interest throughout.

Fans of the time and place, rejoice
Arnold Rothstein was a pioneer of 20th century organized crime. He took the street-level and gambling-house tricks to new heights of craft and organization. He brought a spiritedness and an element of sly humor to his business. His proteges include Meyer Lansky, Benjamin Siegel, and Lucky Luciano, launching the multi-ethnic criminal organization that loomed so large later in the century. Arnold was a white glove kind of guy who almost never got his own fingernails dirty; he was great at using straw men and having numerous fall guys between him and trouble. He brought an extreme discretion and skills of quiet manipulation of every player in sight, along with fastidious risk management, that would become a standard way of life in modern America's political economy. He should stand as an icon for every slick well-dressed manicured slimeball out there. As such, he doesn't get the recognition he deserves. Grover Gardner's narration has just the right sophisticated twang for this. The story drags a bit at a few points, but it moves plenty well, and was well worth my time.

Wonderful book, excellent narrator.
I can't say enough about Grover. By far my favorite narrator, hands down. The book itself was excellent as well, with lots of facts, but great story as well. The chapters on the 1919 scandal were riveting, and the human story was well told. 5 stars from me.

13 Photographers Who Captured the Epic Beauty of America's National Parks
Artsy Editorial
Working as a photojournalist and artist, Stephen Wilkes is well known for his photographs of abandoned and deteriorating buildings, including a series of the dilapidated hospital wings of Ellis Island, a project that resulted in a $6-million grant to restore the island. More recently, he created the sweeping panoramas of his series "Day to Night", which dramatically shift from dawn to midnight in a single image; Wilkes created this effect by taking up to 1,500 photographs during the course of one day, eventually narrowing them down to 50 and combining them digitally. His work has been featured in leading magazines and newspapers including Vanity Fair, Time, Life Magazine, and The New York Times Magazine.

CAIRO Security forces sprayed protesters with water hoses and tear gas outside the presidential palace as Egyptians marked the second anniversary of the fall of autocrat Hosni Mubarak with angry demonstrations against his elected successor.
The forces were trying to disperse a small crowd of protesters on Monday evening, after some of them attempted to cross a barbed wire barrier meant to block them from the palace gate. Some protesters chanted: "The people want to bring down the regime." Others threw stones.
Graffiti scribbled on the palace walls read: "Erhal" or "Leave," the chant that echoed through Cairo's central Tahrir Square during the 18-day uprising that ended with Mubarak stepping down on Feb. 11, 2011.
- Thousands in Egypt defy curfews, protest Morsi
- Oppostion: 2nd anti-Morsi protestor killed by police
- Egypt Army Chief warns state could collapse
Earlier, masked men briefly blocked trains at a central Cairo subway station and a dozen other protesters blocked traffic with burning tires on a main overpass in Cairo. Hundreds rallied outside the office of the country's chief prosecutor, demanding justice and retribution for protesters killed in clashes with security forces after Islamist President Mohammed Morsi took office last summer.
The protesters lobbed plastic bags filled with red liquid at the prosecutor's office to recall the blood spilled by civilians in clashes with security forces. The prosecutor's appointment by Morsi was criticized as a violation of the judiciary's independence. Another group of protesters locked shut the doors of the main administrative building for state services just outside the subway station at Tahrir Square.
Egypt has been gripped by political turmoil since Mubarak's ouster, in an uprising driven largely by anger over widespread abuse at the hands of state security agencies. After he stepped down, Mubarak was replaced by a ruling military council that was in power for 17 months. The rule of the generals was marred by violence and criticism that the council mismanaged the transitional period.
Morsi won the first free elections in June. But he and his Muslim Brotherhood, which rose to be Egypt's most powerful political group post-Mubarak, are now facing the wrath of Egyptians who drove the 2011 revolt but who say few of their goals have been realized.
For many in Egypt, the past two years have only increased frustration, with the economy deteriorating as political bickering between a largely secular opposition and a tightly organized and conservative Islamist bloc obstructed progress.
Protesters are particularly angry over the continued heavy handedness of security services, claiming little has changed since the Mubarak era. Many accuse Morsi and the Brotherhood of trying to monopolize power and ignoring the demands of the secular and liberal groups who were the backbone of the uprising.
On Monday, government opponents marched to Tahrir Square, the epicenter of the uprising, which has been sealed off by protesters since November. Others went to the presidential palace. Hundreds also marched through the streets of Alexandria, Egypt's second largest city.
"Of course I feel disappointed. Every day it's getting worse," said Ahmed Mohamed, a 20-year-old engineering student protesting outside the presidential palace. "The economy is even worse and all government institutions are collapsing. Morsi won't even acknowledge this."
Doaa Mustafa, a 33-year-old housewife, said she is willing to stay on the streets until Morsi steps down, as Mubarak did.
"We're here so that Mohammed Morsi, the dictator, will leave. He is just as bad as Mubarak, if not worse."
The protesters are also demanding the amendment of the country's new constitution. They claim that Islamists rushed the charter through the approval process despite disagreement with the opposition. The result, they say, was a charter that undermines freedoms of expression and belief and chips away at women rights.
Some protesters are also demanding a new Cabinet, accusing the current government of being ineffective and failing to rein in police abuses or institute economic reforms. One of the most heated issues for protesters remains a lack of accountability for those responsible for the deaths of hundreds of civilians during protests against the state.
Morsi and his supporters have repeatedly dismissed the opposition's charges, accusing the opposition and Mubarak supporters alike of trying to topple a democratically elected president.

Justin Grinder knew at an early age that he wanted to be involved in the construction industry.
Justin Grinder
As a child, his father and grandfather would drive him around Memphis on what were essentially family field trips touring their construction sites. And during family gatherings the conversation would inevitably steer toward construction.
"I grew up in the construction business," said Grinder, vice president of Grinder, Taber & Grinder Inc. "Most of the Grinder family, in some form or another, is in the construction business as a general contractor or subcontractor. Ever since I was in elementary school I wanted to go into this business."
Grinder's introduction to the industry at an early age sparked a curiosity that has not dimmed over time.
"I like the problem solving," said Grinder. "There's always something new in the construction business, something new to solve."
Grinder began working for the company during the summer in high school as a laborer and carpenter's helper and in college as an estimator and project manager.
After graduating from Georgia Tech with a degree in civil engineering, Grinder worked for Winter Construction Co. in Atlanta as an office engineer and estimator from 2001 to 2002.
When Grinder returned to the family business in 2002 he was given the chance of a lifetime: managing the $30 million Paul Barret, Jr. Library project at Rhodes College.
"I was a little surprised I was given that much responsibility but I worked about 80 hours a week so I didn't make mistakes and I was really trained for it since I was a kid," Grinder said. "This project is one of my proudest accomplishments and is one of the most beautiful buildings in the city."
Rhodes was obviously pleased with the work; Grinder, Taber & Grinder handles all of the college's major building projects.
Grinder, 35, is now using his experience and passion for the industry as chairman of the West Tennessee chapter of Associated Builders and Contractors.
Grinder said his tenure comes as younger industry professionals have begun to participate in the organization, a trend he would like to continue.
"We're seeing the resurgence of younger members," he said. "It's bringing new perspectives and energy into the ABC, which is great."
Grinder said one of his goals is to better communicate to construction industry employees the benefits that come with membership to the ABC, including discounts for certain services, educational opportunities and political representation.
"Our generation wants to know what we're getting for our dues," Grinder said. "Before, you paid your dues because that's just what you did but budgets are tight and people want to understand what they're paying for."
Grinder said the local construction industry has begun to emerge from the depths of the recession.
"I think the confidence is coming back across all industries," he said. "It's still competitive, it's still tough, but I do have more confidence the economy is getting better. We've got a lot of work in the pipeline."
One of those projects is the $180 million redevelopment of the Sears Crosstown building. Grinder, Taber & Grinder is serving as the general contractor on the project, which seeks to redevelop the 1.5-million-square-foot Sears building through arts, education and health care.
It's one of the many projects Grinder will be able to show to his son, Cray, and daughter, Vivian.
"One day I'll be able to drive my kids around the city of Memphis and say I've been able to have an impact on the city and its buildings," he said.

Hello everyone,I started using sublime text 2 couple of days ago, and I must say; I really am in love with it.I have created my own test language, and i would really very much like to use Sublime text 2 as the editor for it. The only problem is size, and support for other languages (i need support for single language for this build). Can anyone please direct me to any link, or guide me, so that i can reduce the excess size of it, remove unnecessary features, and make it more slimmer?
Any help would be appreciated.
edit: by unnecessary features, i mean anything unimportant which can help reduce size, including deleting certain files (if necessary), removing support for other languages, so that they do not appear in set syntax list and similar optimisations..
You can delete all the .sublime-package files except for "Default.sublime-package" and "Theme - Default.sublime-package" and "Color Scheme - Default.sublime-package". You can also look inside of .sublime-package files by renaming them to .zip
thank you for your response, but removing some of those files are giving error messages upon launching sublime 2
Also, if possible, is there any stripped off version of sublime text 2 that can be directly by implementing syntax definitions for languages directly?
I'm not sure what your plan is, but you should probably be aware that the EULA for Sublime Text forbids redistribution. Stripping out files of your own installation is probably fine.
The idea is to use sublime text 2 as an editor for my programming language (it is not commercial, but simply personal).. Therefore, i need the minimal version of sublime (it is simply epic)..
Keep Text.sublime-package as well.
Done that.Deleting those files interferes with creating new build systems.. I'll keep some backup files, so that wont be a problem..Any more ways to reduce size effectively?
Why do you want to reduce the size? The packages only add up to a few MB on disk.
As mentioned above, redistribution is not permitted, so bandwidth isn't an issue.
redistribution is not an issue, because the language is more like college project (plus personal project). Anyways, sublime takes about 22mb on disk, so i was wondering if i could bring down that size, language itself being around 3-4mb..Plus, its always great to have a language specific editor included..Sublime has everything i can expect from an editor, and a lot more too.. So, sublime is the perfect candidate for making it editor.. That said, redistribution is not an issue, its more like cutting down size of individual's copy of the sublime..
I wonder too...In a world where the unit of measure of the capacity of a hard disk is Terabyte, it looks like a waste of time.
I'm sorry to be blunt, but others have answered clearly already: don't do it. It looks like you want to redistribute it, and the license doesn't allow that.
Talking about Windows (ST2 Portable) here:
sublime_text.exe is already 5MBOther runtime dlls are ~1.5MBPython is 4MBOther Python modules are 3.8MB
All the default packages together are 4MB (*2 in portable)
This sums up to ~20MB where you can at most delete some default packages and some Python modules you don't use which sums up to about 9MB (counting that packages are both zipped and extracted). And I'd certainly not want to delete files from an already installed program.

Honda creates thought-controlled android
Asimo gets smarter
Remember Asimo, Honda's stair-climbing android? It's back and this time the robot can be controlled by human thoughts.
Can't see the video? Download Flash Player from Adobe.com
Collaboration between Honda's Research Institute of Japan, Advanced Telecommunications Research Institute International and the Shimadzu Corporation has resulted in what's claimed to be the world's first Brain Machine Interface (BMI) technology able to steer a robot by thought alone.
By placing sensors that measure "slight electrical current and blood flow changes" onto someone's head, the team was able to make Asimo perform physical movements that had only been thought about by the sensor-clad human.
Sensors on the man's head tell Asimo how to move
A "newly developed information extraction technology" then enables statistical processing of data gathered by the two sensor technologies, effectively translating thoughts into control signals for the robot's motors.
The trio claimed the BMI technology is roughly 90 per cent accurate.
The thought process that controls Asimo
Honda and co. now plan to further develop the BMI technology for application to human-friendly products. ®

Photo Gallery: Dogs Rescued
Related stories: Rescued dogs at Devore shelter look for new lease on life | Devore Animal Shelter chief holds out hope for rescued dogs
DEVORE — Thirty-five dogs seized from an alleged hoarder site in Apple Valley will eventually be adopted thanks to a Sacramento animal rescue group who picked them up from the Devore Animal Shelter on Tuesday.
The fate of the animals had been in question for weeks, and San Bernardino County animal control officials feared they might have to be euthanized if they were not rescued.
"It's a good ending to a bad story, so far," said Doug Smith, animal control supervisor at the Devore facility.
The rescued dogs are among 130 that were taken from Rainbow's End Animal Sanctuary during an investigation by San Bernardino County Animal Care and Control officers into inhumane conditions at the facility.
The malnourished and near-feral animals have been receiving care at the Devore shelter. One gave birth to puppies July 3.
Smith said when they were first brought to the shelter, all the animals needed to be brought into the kennel with control sticks and muzzle covers. On Tuesday, many were still skittish but tolerated being placed on leashes and into a trailer for transport.
The dogs will be split up into 18 air-conditioned compartments for the 10-hour journey to Northern California.
They're being taken by Sacramento Independent Animal Rescue to a ranch with animal rehabilitation facilities in Auburn. The facility used to operate as a greyhound rescue site, but has since expanded to other breeds, said ranch manager Stefan Huntley.
"This is our biggest haul ever," he said.
The ranch owner, Shana Laursen, made two trips to the Devore shelter before financing the rescue.
Huntley said in addition to medical attention, the dogs will need to be rehabilitated so they can live with humans.
"These dogs are going to require a tremendous amount of work to be adoptable," he said.
Huntley said the Auburn facility is able to eventually adopt most of the pets it acquires.
The additional dogs not picked up Tuesday morning were being looked at by other groups later in the day for possible rescue.

Join us Tuesday for a live video conversation with award-winning author Amy Wilentz about her new book, "Farewell, Fred Voodoo." After a massive earthquake devastated Haiti in 2010, Wilentz, a journalist who has been writing about the country for more than two decades, felt compelled to return. This is the story she came back with, one that weaves history and culture to understand a fractured present.
"Haiti needs to be understood in Haitian terms," Wilentz writes.
In his review of the book in the L.A. Times, Hector Tobar writes: " 'Farewell, Fred Voodoo' is a love letter to — and a lament for — Haiti, a country with an already strange and tortured history that became even more tragic, interesting and convoluted in the months after the earthquake.... Unlike the vast majority of reporters writing about Haiti and other developing countries, Wilentz has absorbed the idea that the locals have a radically different way of understanding their country — and that Haitian beliefs are usually better at explaining Haitian reality than the ideas of well-meaning but essentially naive Westerners."
Tobar will be interviewing Wilentz in our chat. They'll talk about the book and about her experiences working as a journalist in Haiti.
Join us for that live conversation, Tuesday, Jan. 29 at 10 a.m. We'll be using Spreecast, so you can submit questions as the conversation is going. Or if you already know what you'd like to ask, Tweet it to us, @latimesbooks on Twitter.

Social media has had a huge impact on every industry and travel is not excluded. The role of social media now plays a key part in the consumers travel experience; from how they research and book their holiday, on-going engagement while they're travelling to post review.
The Travel and Tourism Industry depends heavily on word-of-mouth and the spread of opinions-social networks provide the perfect platform to do this.

'Getting Better'
"The scope for construction in the U.S. and in Europe to get better is enormous," Michael DeWalt, director of investor relations for the Peoria, Illinois-based company, said at a June 5 conference. "If you look at the three biggest end markets, U.S., Europe in general and China, with the exception of Europe, I think they're getting better but they have a lot of room to grow."
American exports decreased 0.3% to $187.1 billion, reflecting swings among typically volatile categories. A $1.13 billion slump in gold purchases from foreign buyers was tempered by a $1.37 billion surge in demand for civilian aircraft. Sales of jewelry and gems also slackened.
After eliminating the influence of prices, which renders the numbers used to calculate gross domestic product, the trade deficit widened to $52.3 billion, the highest since November. The jump will probably prompt economists to cut second-quarter growth forecasts.
The trade gap with China, the world's second-biggest economy, grew to $27.9 billion from $24.1 billion, today's report showed.
China Rebound
The conditions are in place for China to achieve its growth targets this year, China Central Television reported this week, citing Premier Li Keqiang. The nation's growth has stayed below 8% for the past four quarters, the first time that has happened in at least 20 years.
Oil prices have been stable, reducing pressure on the value of imports. Brent crude traded on the ICE Futures Europe exchange in London at an average $103.3 a barrel in May, little- changed from April, and closed at $104 yesterday.
At the same time, a stronger U.S. currency makes American exports less attractive to overseas buyers. The Dollar Index, used by IntercontinentalExchange Inc. to track the greenback against currencies of six U.S. trading partners, has gained 5.6% through yesterday from this year's low on Feb. 1.

Stan Smith did what he typically does on autumn afternoons when Southern Oregon University has home football games. He sat in the stands on the home side and watched his beloved Raiders.
Halftime was about to run its course last Saturday when the SOU players returned to the field.
The next thing Smith knew, a player, one he'd befriended the past couple years, veered from formation, headed across the track, up the steps and into the stands. Linebacker Daniel Breaux got to Smith, the 88-year-old patriarch of Raider football, and knelt to give him a hug and say a few words.
Smith, a World War II veteran and one of two remaining starters from the Raiders' last undefeated team in 1946, isn't one to mince words.
"They had dedicated the game or something to me," he said Friday in his Medford living room. "S—-, I couldn't even hear it. I didn't know what the hell was going on. The damn kid comes running up the steps and the second half is about to kick off."
Told of Smith's reaction over the phone as the team holed up Friday in a Davenport, Iowa, hotel awaiting today's NAIA playoff game against St. Ambrose, Breaux, a decorated linebacker, howled in laughter.
It was Stan being Stan, said the sophomore from Greenfield, Calif.
After his playing days, Smith coached at high schools from Cave Junction to Baker City, but for years he made his mark as a Rogue Valley restaurant owner and cook. He started the Raider Golf Tournament in 1990, and it's become the university's biggest fundraising event. He was on the Raider board of directors for years, served on coaching search committees, purchased equipment for the football team and generally, in step with his late wife, Tommie, has given of himself whenever possible.
So when SOU coach Craig Howard learned before last week's game against Montana Tech that Smith will have surgery next month to remove an aneurysm, it weighed heavily on him.
Howard often calls Smith "Mr. Raider Football."
Smith coached Gary Mires at Baker City, and Mires was Howard's high school coach at Grants Pass. The three remain deeply connected.
"He is the most loyal alumni I've ever seen," said Howard.
The coach was emotional when he informed the Raider players of Smith's condition before the game and dedicated the contest to him. Breaux's gesture was strictly his own, catching even Howard by surprise.
"I just told him thank you and we're doing this for him," said Breaux. "Stan is a big part of where our team is and all the success we've had. He's one of ours. He's a Raider and he bleeds Raider red."
To what end? His doctor wanted to do the procedure sooner, but Smith — aware of the risks — asked that it be moved back until after football season.
He doesn't want to miss a moment of SOU's exhilarating ride.
The Raiders are ranked 10th in the country and have won six straight games on the strength of a dizzying offense.
It's a far cry from Smith's days in the game. His coaching playbook would look "pretty conservative" next to the Raiders', he said.
Smith recalled a Baker High team reunion and a conversation with a former running back.
"He said, 'Well damn it, coach, we only had six plays,' and I said, 'Well, that's not true. We had 12 ... six right and six left.'"
It wasn't much different when Smith played.
At Medford High, his coach was Bill Bowerman, who would later gain fame as the University of Oregon track coach.
Smith recalled running sprints his junior year in front of Bowerman. The coach was impressed by his speed and agility for a big man — in college he played at 6-foot-1 1/2, 225 pounds — and suggested he might try out at fullback his senior year.
That year never came.
Smith went to war in August 1942, joining the Navy. His ship mostly convoyed from the Panama Canal throughout the Atlantic.
Upon his return, he joined a number of other war veterans at what was then Southern Oregon College of Education. The school was on the verge of closing because of low enrollment, but when the war ended, the number of students rose from 42 to more than 500.
A by-product was the resurrection of the football team. It had been suspended in 1939 after back-to-back winless seasons, then was shut down a year later when the war siphoned its male enrollment.
Football wouldn't return until the soldiers did, and that was in 1946. The team was about 30 strong, said Smith, and "we were like brothers, you know?"
Most of them lived in veteran housing, and they quickly regained their football acumen.
Al Simpson was the coach. He took over the Medford High team when Bowerman enlisted, winning state in 1944. When Bowerman returned, Simpson was out of a job and SOCE needed a coach.
He ran a 6-2 defense — "Hell, it was real simple," said Smith — and the T-formation offense, as opposed to the single wing favored by most teams.
Smith was a tackle on both sides of the ball. At the time, if you played one position on offense, there was a correlating position on defense, he said. Quarterbacks also played safety, fullbacks and centers were the linebackers, halfbacks were the defense backs.
"It was automatic," said Smith. "Apparently you had some skill that had a connection with offense and defense."
The Red Raiders, as they were dubbed then, went 8-0, coming from behind four times and claiming the inaugural Pear Bowl. Two of the victories were over the Oregon and Oregon State junior varsity teams, which included seniors and some players who saw varsity action, said Smith.
SOCE won its first seven games the next year for a 15-game winning streak but finished 1947 with a 7-2 mark.
During Smith's career, from 1946-49, SOCE was 25-9-1 and captured three Far West Conference titles.
The success was unexpected by some.
Smith told of Simpson walking down an Ashland street before the season started when a man approached. He told the coach he'd seen a couple players drinking beer at the Elks Club, adding, "I don't think you've got a chance with those guys."
Simpson's response?
"Well, I know fella, but it's really difficult to tell a bunch of guys who spent two or three years in a foxhole they can't drink a beer."
"I thought that was classic," said Smith. "Every day was like liberty."
It's a different time, of course, but one thing is constant: Smith's affection for Raider football.
He's weathered bad seasons. This is only the second winning campaign since 2003.
"I've had quite an interest in the program and many times I've been disappointed," he said. "Not disgruntled, really, just wishing they could do better, you know, something to be proud of. It is very satisfying and fun for me to enjoy the success they're having."
How long it will last is anyone's guess.
Based on recent conversations with Howard, Smith said the Frontier Conference title the Raiders claimed in their first year in the league doesn't seem to be enough.
"He's not satisfied," said Smith. "He wants to win the national championship."
Regardless of how it ends, there's no doubt a big piece of this season belongs to "Mr. Raider Football."

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — A retired BP employee who supervised drilling operations on the rig that exploded in the Gulf of Mexico testified Wednesday that he never felt pressure to sacrifice safety to save money, even though the project was behind schedule and over budget.
"I don't believe in pushing people to keep schedules. I'm just not going to do it, especially if safety is involved," former BP well site leader Ronnie Sepulvado said at a federal trial designed to assign fault for the deadly disaster to the companies involved in drilling BP PLC's Macondo well.
Sepulvado wasn't on the Deepwater Horizon rig at the time of the April 20, 2010, well blowout. He left four days earlier because his well control certificate was about to expire.
His replacement, Robert Kaluza, and fellow BP well site leader Donald Vidrine are charged with manslaughter in the deaths of 11 rig workers and await a separate trial. An indictment last year accuses Kaluza and Vidrine of disregarding abnormally high pressure readings that should have been glaring signs of trouble just before the blowout.
Sepulvado said the Macondo project was running behind schedule in part because a storm had damaged the rig that was drilling the well before the Deepwater Horizon was brought in to take over. He said the drilling crew also was hampered by a March 2010 "kick," which is an unexpected flow of fluids into the wellbore.
At the start of the trial last week, a Justice Department attorney accused BP of putting profits ahead of safety in a rush to finish a project that was more than $50 million over budget at the time of the blowout.
Sepulvado, however, said he wasn't troubled by the delays.
"Did you ever ask anyone to hurry to finish up this well because you needed to get somewhere else?" BP attorney Hariklia Karis asked.
"No, ma'am," Sepulvado said.
"And at any time did you ever ask anyone to cut any corners to save time or money?" she asked.
"No, ma'am," he said.
Sepulvado said the rig crew reported its drilling costs on a daily basis and adhered to a BP mantra that "every dollar counts," but not at the expense of safety.
"You don't waste money," he said. "To me, it means better planning to try to get equipment in and out."
U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier is hearing testimony without a jury and, barring a settlement, would decide how much more money BP, rig owner Transocean and other companies owe for their roles in the disaster. BP could be on the hook for nearly $18 billion in penalties under the Clean Water Act if the judge finds that it acted with "gross negligence."
Barbier also heard testimony Wednesday by drilling expert Richard Heenan, a witness for the federal government. Heenan said the pressure test that Kaluza and Vidrine are accused of botching marked a "gross and extreme departure from the standards of good oilfield practice."
The conclusion by BP supervisors and Transocean crew members that the test was successful "lacked any justification based on the basic principles of well control or physics," Heenan added.
Transocean attorney Michael Doyen noted that the test lasted at least two to three hours.
"You don't have any doubt that the guys on the rig were trying to get the test right?" Doyen asked.
"They would want to get it right," Heenan said.

The future's bright for Virgin executives
Jobs for the boys at Orange
Less than a month into the job and Orange boss Tom Alexander has lured three of his old muckers from Virgin to help him turn Orange UK into a competitive business.
Andrew Ralston, Gerry McQuade, and Steven Day all used to work for Alexander at Virgin's MVNO, but have now switched to Orange with responsibility for operations, development, and staff respectively.
Virgin has been one of the most successful MVNOs (Mobile Virtual Network Operators) in a market that was predicted to be packed with competition by now. In fact, life as an MVNO has proved very difficult, and only a few well-known brands have managed it.
Orange has been getting less profitable of late, so with Alexander at the helm we can expect some form of cost cutting, or squeezing more revenue from existing assets. ®

Earlier this year, a 6-year-old girl was shot and badly wounded during a firefight between U.S. and Afghan forces and the Taliban. Her father, a Taliban fighter, her mother and some siblings were all killed in the gun battle.
Dr. Chance Henderson, a Texas-born orthopedic surgeon, was there when the girl, whom NPR is calling Ameera, was brought to the hospital at the Bagram Airfield outside Kabul.
"I remember her quite vividly there on that stretcher, and how tiny she looked," he says.
Back in May, NPR reported that it was unclear whether Henderson — who has a daughter close to Ameera's age — and his medical team would be able to save Ameera's severely wounded left leg.
The stakes were high, Henderson explained at the time, because the girl's "outlook on a life as a single amputee that does not have a family is much different than it would be for us in the States. Her future would be grim, and probably her lifespan would be short."
This week, there's good news. Henderson says he succeeded in saving Ameera's leg via a procedure called a cross-leg flap. It involved temporarily attaching her two legs and directing blood flow from the healthy right leg to the left.
"We just take the skin from one leg, the other leg and flap it down kind of all the way to the muscle, and use that muscle and subcutaneous fat to sew to the other leg, to cover that defect, and allow the bone to get her blood supply to it, take away infection and let it heal," Henderson explains. "The nurses were calling it a mermaid flap."
Ameera's legs were stabilized with a bar "so she didn't pull them apart as she was waking up or in normal day-to-day life," Henderson says. "And so she was sewn together, as well as bars and pins holding her legs together."
The flap was divided after four weeks, the operation a success. Since then, the team has worked with Ameera to strengthen her legs, with the help of a custom-made walker.
"She's a little stiff and we have a therapist here that's been working with her to help her walk," Henderson says. "But she's doing quite well."
Ameera is doing so well that she is getting ready to go home soon. It's a bittersweet transition for Henderson and his team.
"She has been here from the first week of this deployment, when we first got here in early April, and so I don't think there's a person at the hospital that hasn't spent hours with her," he says.
Nurses, therapists and physicians have all gotten to know the girl. They've played with her and done what they could to make her feel more comfortable.
"And so she's very near and dear to all of our hearts," says Henderson.
So much so, in fact, that in the beginning, several of them had thought they might adopt her.
"The first night we met her, we all thought, that's it, you know, we've got to save this little girl," Henderson says. "Immediately when we heard that she had lost her family, of course that's what everybody's thinking. We were excited to find she did have other family members, but I think there's a law, a federal law, against military members adopting. And we asked the question and were told no. And I think some of us asked twice and were told no twice, which is a strong no in the military."
Henderson expects Ameera to be discharged "very soon." She'll go into the care of her family, though it's unclear which relatives will look after her. To protect her security, the location where she'll be living isn't being made public. Henderson worries that her time in a U.S. hospital may elicit threats.
The most important thing from Henderson's perspective is for her to lead as normal a life from now on as possible.
"I really want her to be able to run and walk and do all of the normal things that a kid can do almost when she leaves here, just purely because I think follow-up will be difficult, given that she may be far away from here," he says. "I want her to be 100 percent."
When Ameera leaves, he says, "It's going to be a tough day." In the time she has spent at the hospital, she's picked up a little English: "She says 'hi' and 'bye' and 'thank you' — and she's certainly learned how to say 'no' quite clearly," says Henderson.
For him and his team, "bye" will be the hardest thing to hear. But Ameera, he knows, "will smile, she'll be excited."
We're going to check in now on a little girl in Afghanistan. In April, she was shot and badly wounded in the leg in a firefight between U.S. and Afghan forces and the Taliban. Orthopedic surgeon Chance Henderson was there when she showed up at an American military hospital at Bagram Airfield.
CHANCE HENDERSON: I remember her quite vividly there on that stretcher and how tiny she looked.
MCEVERS: We're not using the girl's name for safety reasons. Her father, a member of the Taliban, was killed in the firefight. So were her mother and some siblings. We first brought you her story in May when it was unclear whether doctors would be able to save her wounded leg.
This week, we got back in touch with Dr. Henderson, and he told us how he managed to save the girl's leg using a procedure called a cross-leg flap.
HENDERSON: We just take the skin from that one leg - the other leg, flap it around kind of all the way down to the muscle and use that muscle and subcutaneous fat to sew to the other leg to cover that defect and allow the bone to get her blood supply to it, take away infection and let it heal.
MCEVERS: So basically, the two legs were sewn together.
HENDERSON: Correct, yeah. The nurses were calling it a mermaid flap. And so we just used that device and put a bar across to the other leg to help stabilize that flap so she didn't pull them apart while she was waking up or in normal day-to-day life. And so she was sewn together as well as bars and pins holding her legs together.
MCEVERS: So, I guess, I would imagine that she didn't stay that way, right? Were the two legs eventually separated once the bad leg was able to heal?
HENDERSON: You are correct. Yeah, we divided that flap at four weeks from when we placed it there. And eventually, it gets blood supply from the wounded leg. And so you can then divide it. And that has been successful. That wound is covered now. And now we're just kind of dealing with the sequela of having your legs together for four weeks. So she's a little stiff.
And we have a therapist here that's been working with her to help her walk. But she's doing quite well.
MCEVERS: How soon will she be good enough to be released?
HENDERSON: Very soon. It kind of depends on her therapy. I really want her to be able to run and walk and do all the normal things that a kid can do almost when she leaves here just purely because I think follow-up will be difficult given that she may be far away from here. And she'll go back with her community where she came from.
And, you know, she may come back for follow-up. We certainly are happy to have her come back. We've requested that. But, you know, it's difficult for them to travel that distance to get here. So I want her to be 100 percent. And that may be maybe a week or two from now.
MCEVERS: Wow. Her father was a Taliban fighter, and he was killed together with her mother and some of her siblings. Do you know who she's going back to?
HENDERSON: All I know is immediate family. You know, her family has been here to help care for her, basically be by her side the entire time she's been here. But I am not 100 percent sure from there. I think back with her immediate family, and I'm not sure who that will be.
MCEVERS: Wow. I know that many people in the hospital were, you know, so interested in her and her getting better and some were even talking about wanting to, you know, bring her back here to the U.S. Was that ever a discussion in your family?
HENDERSON: Absolutely, man. We were going to try to figure out how to sneak her out of here. No, I'm kidding. But we have, I mean, the first night we met her, we all thought, you know, that's it. You know, we've got to save this little girl. And immediately, when we heard that she had lost her family, of course, that's what everybody's thinking. We were excited to find she did have other family members.
But I think there's a federal law against military members adopting. And she has family. And I'm sure that's where she wants to go. But all of our hearts, I think, were in the right place. And we asked the question and were told no. And I think some of us asked twice and were told no twice, which is a strong no in the military.
We learned to say yes, sir - but absolutely.
MCEVERS: Is it going to be hard to say goodbye?
HENDERSON: I think it'll be tough. I think - and the people that see her the most are the therapist and the nurses. They spend every waking hour with her. They wheel her around the hospital. She's learned how to play some video games. And, you know, she watches "Frozen." And, I mean, they've taught her some English words. And she says hi and bye and thank you.
And she's certainly learned how to say no quite clearly.
MCEVERS: (Laughter).
HENDERSON: But she - yeah, she's a sweet like every other 6-year-old girl. And I think we're all going to have a hard time. And she has been here from the first week of this deployment when we first got here in early April.
MCEVERS: Oh, wow.
HENDERSON: And so I don't think there's a person in the hospital that hasn't spent hours with her. And so she's very near and dear to all of our hearts. It's going to be a tough day.
MCEVERS: You talked about wanting her to be released sort of fully functional. Explain why that's so important, I guess, in Afghanistan. You know, if she were to go back disabled, how would that be difficult for her?
HENDERSON: The family members that were here with her, at the time it was an uncle, was very clear that it would be exceedingly difficult for her to have any kind of quality of life with one leg or an amputation, any kind of physical disability just based on the difficulty of where they live and the terrain but also for being accepted by others.
And then someday in the future, having a family and having a husband would be difficult for her 'cause she doesn't have a dowry, at this point. And her folks, you know, are gone, like you mentioned earlier. So I think, you know, it's quite clear that it would be just difficult for her to have any kind of a quality of life.
MCEVERS: Do you think she'll be in any danger going back having spent so much time in an American hospital?
HENDERSON: Yeah, that's my fear. Yeah, I'm very concerned. That is absolutely my concern.
MCEVERS: I want to ask Dr. Henderson more questions but then this happens.
HENDERSON: You're on speaker just a second. We have an incoming rocket right now.
MCEVERS: OK, all right. Stay safe.
HENDERSON: Bye, thank you. We'll give you a buzz back.
MCEVERS: That was U.S. Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Chance Henderson. By the way, everyone is OK. This happens a lot at Bagram Airfield in Afghanistan. You can see our earlier story about the girl and watch her steps toward recovery at npr.org. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Board of Education hears proposed changes to accountability, adopts rule change
At its meeting Nov. 18, in Pierre, the South Dakota Board of Education heard proposed changes to South Dakota's accountability system. A summary of the key changes is below. Click here to watch a video. The proposal will be put out for public comment this winter, prior to the state applying for an extension of its ESEA Flexibility Waiver for an additional year.
• Take the indicator for Teacher/Principal Effectiveness out of the School Performance Index, or SPI
- While aggregate data surrounding effectiveness would still be reported, schools would not receive SPI points for this item.
• Take the indicator for School Climate out of the SPI
- Embed "climate" into work with Priority Schools
• Create a special audit process for schools with unique mission
• Use three years of data for the Student Achievement indicator
• Reconsider how Attendance indicator is calculated
• Make the NCRC/WorkKeys assessment optional for districts to administer to 11th or 12th graders
- For districts that choose to administer, up to ten points of the College and Career Readiness indicator would come from NCRC/WorkKeys.
The board also adopted a rule change to SDAR 24:05:33:07.03.Cooperative educational service unit costs. The change allows a school district to pay certain costs incurred by a co-op, as a result of providing special education or special education and related services, from state and local dollars deposited into the district's special education fund.

GENEVA (AP) — Insurance claims paid out because of natural catastrophes and man-made disasters in 2012 totaled $77 billion globally, making it the third costliest year on record, a leading Swiss firm said Wednesday.
The tab covered by insurance companies represents only about two-fifths of the $186 billion in economic losses, not to mention the 14,000 lives lost, from the more than 300 catastrophes and disasters around the globe last year, according to Zurich-based Swiss Reinsurance Company Ltd., known as Swiss Re.
But the vast majority of that damage, it said, was because of "large-scale weather events" in the U.S. such as Hurricane Sandy that alone accounted for $70 billion in economic losses, of which $35 billion were insured losses — nearly half the total in last year's paid claims worldwide.
The insured payouts of $77 billion represent a big drop from 2011, which Swiss Re called the costliest year on record because of earthquakes and flooding in Asia Pacific — and might have been far higher had more people been able to afford insurance.
"However, large parts of the globe that are prone to weather extremes were not able to rely on financial relief due to low insurance penetration," Swiss Re chief economist Kurt Karl said.
By contrast, due to high amount of coverage in North America, about $65 billion of the region's $119 billion in economic losses were covered by insurance.

Lil Wayne said in a Facebook post Tuesday he didn't mean to "desecrate the flag of the United States of America" during a recent video shoot in New Orleans.
"It was never my intention to desecrate the flag of the United States of America. I was shooting a video for a song off my album entitled 'God Bless Amerika'. The clip that surfaced on the Internet was a camera trick clip that revealed that behind the American Flag was the Hoods of America," he said.
"In the final edit of the video you will see the flag fall to reveal what is behind it but will never see it on the ground."
Wayne, 30, came under fire Monday after footage of him stepping on the United States flag was unveiled by TMZ.
When the clip went viral, many fans were quick to reprimand the rapper via social media for what he had done. Nevertheless, Wayne stood strong behind his position that he meant no harm.
"In most people eyes including my own who were raised in that environment, the Hood is the only America they know and the only America I knew growing up. I was fortunate from my God giving talents to escape the Hood and see the other beautiful places this country has to offer but most people who are born in that environment don't get that chance. That's their view of their America. That was Dwayne M Carter from Hollygrove New Orleans view of America. That's who I'm speaking for in this song," Wayne added in his Facebook post.

Child abuse trial of Plaistow man apprehended at Universal Studios delayedBy JAMES A. KIMBLE
Union Leader Correspondent
April 26. 2013 3:41PM
BRENTWOOD - The trial of a Plaistow man charged with abusing his girlfriend's 3-year-old son has been delayed in the wake of new charges being brought against him last month alleging he also coached the boy about what to tell a state child-advocacy worker.
Roland Dow, 27, was expected to go on trial Monday in Rockingham County Superior Court on eight charges including first-degree and second-degree assault.
Dow's lawyer Tom Gleason asked a judge for more time to review evidence related to the witness tampering charges brought against his client in March.
Dow was indicted along with the boy's mother, 23-year-old Jessica Linscott, for injuries 3-year-old James Nicholson suffered between Nov. 1 and 14.
As Dow was striking Nicholson in the head and burning his wrist and fingers, Linscott failed to report the abuse, according to prosecutors.
The couple was apprehended at Universal Studios in Orlando, Fla. on Nov. 28 after nearly two weeks on the run from police.
Linscott is charged with felony witness tampering, and six misdemeanor counts of endangering the welfare of a child.
No new trial date has been set for Dow. But prosecutors and defense lawyers for Dow and Linscott are expected to briefly meet with a judge on Wednesday for a status conference.
Dow, who is being held at the Rockingham County jail, could face up to 30 to 90 years in state prison if he is convicted of all charges at trial.
Dow and Linscott also face felony charges of hiding a computer camera and secretly recording a state Department of Children, Youth & Family worker who interviewed Nicholson on Oct. 23.
About 20 minutes of the video shows Dow and Linscott instructing the boy how to answer questions about bloody noses and whether he gets yelled at, according to prosecutors and indictments.
Linscott is scheduled for trial on the misdemeanor charged on June 3. She faces up to a year in county jail on each of the misdemeanor charges. The felony charges are punishable by up to 3 ½ to 7 years in state prison.
Prosecutors have the option of asking a judge to consolidate the abuse-related and witness tampering charges into one trial.
