"When Dad was diagnosed, it hurt. My wife's family is large but very close knit, and he was a big part of it. He was a dynamic, smart, funny, vivacious person. So talented in whatever he did, from making prostheses to painting. He was an artist and also a source of comic relief in the family. He was driven. He had a vision of leaving the Philippines for greener pastures in the United States.
We tried to stay positive after his diagnosis. But Multiple Myeloma is no joke. It was rough. Dad had to have a stem cell transplant and be in quarantine while he had no immune system. We hoped that the treatment would work. And it did. For a little while. But we had to keep trying harsher treatment. That is when we needed help. Between care for Dad as things got worse, and travel, we didn't have the time or resources to shop for food and prepare dinner. And when we did have food,it would be fast food or takeout and not nutritious.
So my wife started looking for help. And sure enough we found God's Love We Deliver. And it was AMAZING. We could not have asked for more. They delivered so Dad could get rest, and the food was delicious and also good for him.
If anything is love, helping the sick with meals is it. We were so lucky to have found this organization... it took a load off my family while we were already dealing with so much and that effort will forever be remembered.
My family and I support the mission of God's Love with all our hearts."
~ Gabe, whose beloved father-in-law Buddy received healthy, individually tailored meals from God's Love after being diagnosed with cancer.

Firefighters celebrated the opening of their new station at 220 West St. yesterday and said a bittersweet farewell to their 1939-vintage quarters on East Street.
"There are some good memories there," retired firefighter Donald Demers said. "Some bad memories, too, but some really good memories."
Perhaps the most popular aspect of the new station is the enormous apparatus bay, said Call Fire Department Capt. Kathleen Coulombe, whose husband is the Ware Fire Department chief.
"It was just too crowded," she said of the former station. "This is so much better, and so much safer."
The old station had many faults: water and electrical problems, and lack of space that required firefighters to block Routes 9 and 32 when they needed to move trucks and ambulances around.
The new station was not easy to get. The Fire Department has been trying to upgrade for more than a decade and Chief Thomas W. Coulombe said he was told back when the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act funds became available a few years ago that he should not apply.
The then-town manager told him that even if the town got some of the $210 million, a long shot, voters wouldn't want to provide the matching funds which would be about $2 million.
"I was just thinking we ought to do it so nobody could say, 'Hey did you apply for that grant?' and I'd have to answer no and end up getting my butt kicked for not applying for the grant," he said.
The chief was still stewing over the town's decision not to apply a few weeks later when he asked his wife one evening if she might have time to write the narrative for the grant while he took care of the other requirements. The application was due in two days.
The next day, he found she'd written an impressive application seeking $5 million for a new station and, after deciding he'd rather ask for forgiveness than permission, they hit the send button, figured that as good as it was, they had no chance, and waited.
In the Statehouse, Sen. Stephen M. Brewer, D-Barre, and Reps. Anne M. Gobi, D-Spencer, and Todd M. Smola, R-Palmer, figured the town's funding was a long shot but they worked on ways to get $1 million from the state.
Ware taxpayers would contribute $1 million.
Mr. Brewer said Ware was extremely fortunate to get $5 million, with 625 applications and only six grants handed out in New England; the town of about 10,000 got $2 million more than the city of Chicago.
The town razed two vacant buildings at the site on West Street, and construction began last year. The project, Chief Coulombe said, came in on time and below budget.
Chairman of Selectmen William Braman said the new station will serve the town long into the future. He said just eight years ago the Fire Department operated two basic level ambulances.
Now there are three ambulances, two of which are equipped and staffed to provide advanced life support. Of the 18 full time firefighters, 11 are paramedics and new firefighters will be required to attain that rank.
Last year, firefighters responded to 1,770 ambulance calls along with the fire calls they answered. They are called on to perform more inspections than ever, Mr. Braman said.
Yesterday, the town decommissioned the former fire station, lowering the flag for the last time before a crowd of firefighters from Ware and other communities. The flag will be added to a time capsule that will be buried Sept. 11 at the new headquarters commissioned yesterday.
Firefighters are working from their new station and will be giving tours today and tomorrow from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Arizona officials dive back into debunked controversy over Obama's birth certificate
PHOENIX (AP) ' Arizona officials are jumping back into the debunked controversy over President Barack Obama's birth certificate and his eligibility to hold office.
A legislative committee on Wednesday endorsed a proposal requiring presidential candidates to swear that they meet the qualifications to hold the nation's highest office.
And the Arizona secretary of state is expected to call for candidates to complete a new form asking eligibility questions, including whether they are natural-born U.S. citizens.
The controversy over the validity of Obama's birth certificate and eligibility ' started by what critics call the "birther movement" ' gained steam in Arizona last year when the Legislature passed a bill requiring presidential candidates to prove their citizenship before their names can appear on the state's ballot.
The proposal was vetoed by Republican Gov. Jan Brewer.

Samaritan recalls surprise attack after stopping to help disabled motoristBy NANCY BEAN FOSTER
Union Leader Correspondent
November 16. 2012 7:31PM
MILFORD - Mari Chapman spends a lot of time on the road delivering newspapers, so she's used to stopping to help disabled motorists. But after she was attacked by a man she tried to help on Thursday, she won't be stopping to offer assistance any more.
Chapman, 33, was heading to Hollis on Federal Hill Road in Milford around 10 a.m. on Thursday when she came upon a man and a woman in a black Honda Civic on the road with hazard lights flashing.
"I pulled up alongside the car and asked them if they were OK," said Chapman, "and the man said, 'Yeah, but I need a jack for my car."
Chapman pulled over in her Jeep SUV and chatted with the man, whom she described as "the kind of man whose parents raised him to be polite."
"I didn't get the feeling that maybe I should just move along," said Chapman. "They just seemed like nice, friendly people, so I wanted to try and help them."
But as Chapman was bending into her Jeep, reaching for the jack, the man suddenly came up behind her, grabbed the back of her hooded sweatshirt and threw her to the ground, telling her that he was taking her vehicle.
Chapman fought with the man, struggling to get back to her Jeep as he continued to assault her.
"The whole time I was fighting with myself thinking, 'stop fighting and let him take the car,'" she said. "But then I would think, 'hell no, he's not taking my car.'"
When Chapman finally got on her feet, the man punched her squarely in the face and sent her sprawling.
"I have never been punched like that," said Chapman, "and at that moment I decided that he was not going to take my car, so I kept fighting."
Eventually, Chapman said, she was able to make it to her Jeep, get in the driver's side and lock the doors. She took off and immediately called the police, but the Civic was gone by the time officers arrived.
Police are now searching for the attacker.
Chapman described the man as white, 20-30 years old, about 5'-10" tall, with a medium build, black hair, and wearing a black sweatshirt, blue jeans, and a navy blue Red Sox ball cap with a red "B."
The woman passenger was described as white, 20-30 years old, a petite build, and long, blonde hair (possibly bleached) with a small braid on one side of her head.
Police said the car the pair was driving was a newer model black Honda Civic with Massachusetts license plates, possibly with the letters Y and G in the plate number. Chapman said the woman got out of the car a couple of times during the altercation but didn't try to stop the attack.
"She definitely looked surprised, like she couldn't believe it was happening," said Chapman. "She tried to tell the man that they should go, but he just said, 'I got this.'"
Chapman, who carries a tow rope with her because she often helps motorist who get stuck in snow banks on winter mornings, said she won't be stopping to offer help again.
"I'll call the police and tell them there's a car on the side of the road, but I won't be pulling over," she said.
Milford police continue to investigate and anyone having information regarding the assault to asked to contact them at 249-0630.

Canadiens trending up heading into NHL playoffs
When the gleaming metallic doors beneath the red Montreal Canadiens logo slid silently open after a 5-0 loss to the Washington Capitals on Jan. 25, all 20 players were sitting in their stalls, ordered by management to face the inquisition after a lifeless loss that threatened to derail the Habs' season.
The media had remained outside the doors while the players conducted a meeting at the behest of captain Brian Gionta, their self-conducted airing of the grievances, which, according to some, got quite pointed.
Gionta played coy when asked about the tipping-point meeting as the Canadiens, who turned their season around after that collective baring of souls, prepared for the 2014 playoffs.
"It was something that needed to be done," he shrugged.
When asked if it was a captain's prerogative, he replied: "You can take it whatever way you want. Things happen at certain points in the year that need to be done and it was no different than other times.
"Everybody knew what was wrong. It was just a matter of getting it out there and making sure everybody was on board with it."
The loss to the Caps was their fourth in a row — their longest losing streak of the season — and had turned things nasty. Fans were lighting up coach Michel Therrien on the call-in shows — he wasn't using defenceman P.K. Subban enough and centre David Desharnais too much. And why wasn't Lars Eller back on a line with Alex Galchenyuk and Brendan Gallagher? The players were asked if they had quit on their coach.
GM Marc Bergevin, meanwhile, was taking his own share of heat. He had given Desharnais a bad contract, had given too much money to Daniel Briere and never should have signed lumbering defenceman Douglas Murray.
"Collectively, we're just in a rut and we're finding ways to beat ourselves," said veteran defenceman Josh Gorges when the doors to the Canadiens' dressing room finally opened that night in January. "Tonight, once we got down, mentally we didn't have that resiliency. But in no way, shape or form are we quitting on anybody."
"At this point, our support isn't good enough. We have to battle better for our teammates," said goaltender Carey Price after that loss to the Caps. "You have to count on the guy beside you. Right now we're not doing that."
They apparently are doing that now.
The Canadiens went 19-8-3 after that meeting, a stretch that propelled them to the playoffs and a meeting with the Tampa Bay Lightning in the opening round. They finished the season with 100 points. It's just the second time they've hit the century plateau since the last time they won the Stanley Cup in 1992-93 (they had 104 points in 2007-08).
Now Bergevin is being heralded as an executive of the year candidate after acquiring winger Thomas Vanek and useful if unheralded defenceman Mike Weaver at the trade deadline. The Habs' strong finish has at least seen the volume turned down on the Therrien detractors.
Vanek has combined with 39-goal scorer Max Pacioretty and Desharnais to give the Habs the so-called Two-and-a-Half-Men line, their strongest front-line unit in years. The Habs have been rightly knocked and mocked for their lack of size up front in the past, but this is a grittier and more energetic group of forwards, with the emergence of second-year forward Gallagher, who lives in the blue paint, and the presence of grinders such as Dale Weise (another pickup), Brandon Prust (expected to be back for the playoffs) and Ryan White.
Subban leads a good mix of offensive and defensive defencemen and goaltender Price, playing with the same kind of imperturbable brilliance that backstopped Canada to a gold medal at the Olympics in Sochi, gives them a chance to win every game.
But what has set this year's Canadiens team apart has been its consistency and ability to haul itself out of a hole, whether it was that situation in January or another important turnaround: Its comeback from a three-goal deficit with less than four minutes to go against the Ottawa Senators March 15, winning 5-4 in overtime. That snapped a three-game losing streak off a tough Western swing with Price returning after missing eight post-Olympic Games as he recuperated from a lower-body injury.
"It's not panicking. We know the talent in the room. We know what we can do when we're playing our game," said Gionta. "I think the biggest thing is we haven't panicked. You stay composed. You stay confident in your game. It's just getting back on track at times, resetting. I think we've done a good job of that."
Accountabilty has been an important element for the Habs this season. It was a topic that resonated in that closed-door meeting that set the stage for the Canadiens' strong play down the stretch.
Gionta, who can become a free agent this summer, has been a key. The captain has seen his role evolve into more a of two-way assignment though he showed he can still score a big goal, winning the Habs' season finale with a penalty-shot goal in overtime against the New York Rangers.
Gionta is at the forefront of forming the personality of this year's team — one of consistency and character — as Therrien summed it up.
"Consistency and character, to be able to have the type of season we got," Therrien said. "We faced adversity through the course of the season like a lot of teams did, with a contribution from everyone and goaltending was a big part. We are approaching the playoff with a lot of confidence. That's a good sign for me.
"The way that we finished the season, we peaked at the right time. I think it's important for the confidence when you're approaching the playoff."
"There are obviously times throughout the year when things don't go according to plan. There's a bump in the road and there always has to be someone who takes charge, takes the reins. (Gionta)'s done that more than once," said veteran defenceman Josh Gorges.
"You count on everyone collectively to be leaders on this team. There's not one leader. Everyone had to do their part. Everyone had to chip in and voice their opinion. Let's air things out, get things straightened out. If you don't like something, speak up. That's the thing about hockey teams and hockey players, we are like a family. You don't have to agree with everyone every single time. If you don't, let's get it out in the open. If you have to argue, if you have to have it out, let's have it out.
"Then you go for a beer after and everything is fine. That's part of being a good team. It's not a personal vendetta. I'm not attacking you. I'm trying to make things better for us."
Things did get better.
The Canadiens are looking to also use the lessons learned in last spring's five-game loss to Ottawa in which Therrien and the Habs lost their cool and the series against the gritty Senators.
Emotion in the playoffs is inevitable. The Canadiens are hoping to make them work for them this time around.
"That's a good way of looking at it. You've got to channel that emotion. That was certainly what I learned from that series," said Gallagher. "I felt like, at times, my emotional level got too high and I wasn't playing my best hockey. You realize that and as the series went on, it got higher and higher. You just understand how you deal with it, the kind of personality you have and how you have to react.
"It was a lot of guys' first experience in the playoffs, myself included, and you don't understand the emotional level of it, how you have to keep your emotions in check," said Gallagher.
"The intensity level rachets up so high that you want to push yourself and do extra, but it's really counterproductive. You got there all year long playing a certain way. You've got to stick to that. I think it was a good learning experience for us. We lost in five games, but we thought it was a lot closer series than that. It could have went either way."
The Canadiens have their warts. A late-season rush brought them close to breaking even when it comes to scoring at five-on-five, which has been a weakness in recent years. Their possession numbers aren't as good as other playoff teams'— they are one of five post-season squads that have given up more shots than they've taken this season — and their power play, once their bread and butter, finished the season on an 0-for-23 skid.
Those are worrisome trends.
But for now, there's 100 points in the bank and the distinction of being the only Canadian team to make the playoffs.
"We're definitely proud of our season. We put a lot of effort in all season long. We stayed fairly consistent all year," said Price. "Now the fun begins."
Carey Price has tended goal for Team Canada at the Olympics.
But he has no pretensions that he is tending goal for Canada's team in the NHL playoffs.
"I think you'll see a lot of Canadians probably cheering against us more than anything," said Price, whose Montreal Canadiens are the lone Canadian team to make the NHL's post-season. Price was a big reason Canada won its second straight gold medal in the Winter Olympic Games in Sochi.
"A lot of sour fans are probably going to root against us. At the same time, we have a great fan base here in Montreal and across Canada, really. I don't doubt we're going to get a lot of support."
It was suggested every Canadian team gets rooted against by fans of every other Canadian team.
"I'm pretty sure. I know as a kid I rooted against a few Canadian teams in my day," he said.
Price, who shut out the New York Rangers 1-0 Saturday night in the Habs' finale and posted a career-best .927 save percentage this season as Montreal hit the 100-point mark, said he'll be drawing on his Olympics experience when the Canadiens play the Tampa Bay Lightning in the opening round.
"After that whole experience, it helps you stay calm, to take in how a bunch of leaders on other teams who have won carry themselves," he said.
"I think that was a very valuable learning experience."
Price missed eight games when he returned from Sochi with a lower-body injury. It turned out to be a welcome respite from a long season and perhaps a bit of a blessing in an unusually long and cold winter in Canada's East.
"Those first 20 games go by fast. Those last 20 games go by fast. That middle 42, that's a grind, especially with the winters that we have here. It's definitely a lot of hard work we put in throughout the season, on and off the ice. It's not an easy thing to do every year. To be able to hit 100 points is very gratifying.
"I feel pretty good right now. Missing those eight games could have been a blessing in disguise. Being able to take some time off and recuperate after what felt like a season and then a mini-playoffs, it's definitely I think beneficial."

The volume-selling Ford F-150 truck has been updated for 2012 with various mechanical and equipment updates in preparation for its next assault on the U.S market.
As Ford's most popular truck, the F-150 has been subtly revised with styling updates that include a flashy new FX Appearance Package. This cosmetic upgrade is available on both FX4 and FX2 models and includes tinted headlights, graphics on the body, special badging, smoked lights and flat-black 20-inch alloy wheels. Inside, the FX model receives black leather seating surfaces with red piping, black-painted dash accents, brushed metal surfaces and a satin gear stick.
Mechanically, Ford has replaced its electronic shift-on-the-fly system with an enhanced two-speed automatic 4×4 set up that has an automatic mode for Lariat, King Ranch and Platinum trim levels. A Hill Start Assist feature has also been added across the range to help prevent the heavy truck from rolling backwards.
The SVT F-150 Raptor also gets some treatment with restyled wheels, revised graphics and a new Torsen front differential. There's also a clever front camera system that allows drivers to view obstacles through the eight-inch cabin mounted screen. It can display at speeds up to 25 km/h and has a dedicated washer system to keep it clean.

Two-term Orinda councilman and gubernatorial adviser Steve Glazer will file Tuesday as the first official 2014 candidate in the 16th Assembly District.
The 55-year-old policy consultant to Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown and California State University trustee will compete to represent the East Bay district, which includes Lamorinda, Danville, San Ramon, Dublin and Pleasanton.
Glazer hopes to succeed Assemblywoman Joan Buchanan, D-Alamo, who terms out in 2014.
In Glazer's draft news release obtained late Monday, he said he wants to "be a voice for fiscal responsibility and a champion for public education."
"I want to continue the momentum for responsible fiscal management while enhancing support of our local schools and state universities," Glazer wrote. "We need to eliminate roadblocks to economic revitalization and job creation and improve efforts to protect and enhance our environment."
The top vote-getter in November, Glazer was re-elected to a third term on the Orinda City Council where he has served since 2004.
He will start his Assembly campaign with some seed money; his most recent campaign finance report shows he has nearly $44,000 left in his city council account, which can be transferred to his legislative campaign.
Glazer's professional and public lives have intersected for years.
He founded a consulting firm in 1989 that helps companies, associations and elected officials on policy issues. He has advised Brown for the past three years.
Nearly three decades ago, Glazer said he created a California missing children's campaign while working as an aid to then-Assemblyman Gray Davis, who later became governor. More than a dozen lost children were found after photos of missing children ran on milk cartons, grocery bags and billboards, he said.
Glazer jumped into local politics after he was shot in the neck in 2003 with a high-powered pellet rifle while he drove through town. The bullet narrowly missed his carotid artery.
The shooter, Eli Polk, wasn't charged with a crime because pellet rifles were classified as toys. Outraged, Glazer successfully appealed to then-Sen. Tom Torlakson, now the California superintendent of schools, to introduce legislation that set criminal penalties for pellet gun assaults. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger signed the bill into law.
Glazer is married to Melba Muscarolas, an AT&T executive. They have two daughters.

On January 25, 2011, the people of Egypt took to the streets in unprecedented numbers to protest the government of President Hosni Mubarak, who has kept the nation under a state of emergency for three decades. The riots have continued unabated into the month of February, and it's anybody's guess when the disorder will end.
The United States has endured its share of civil unrest as well. Some riots have been carefully planned in advance to protest government policies, and some have begun spontaneously in communities plagued by poverty and unemployment. But while riots start for many different reasons, they usually end the same way, with mass arrests, loss of life and damage to public and private property.
Click ahead to see a list of some of the most costly riots in US history.

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — North Carolina officials say wastewater containing unsafe levels of arsenic from a Duke Energy coal ash dump is flowing into a Dan River, which is already contaminated from a massive Feb. 2 spill.
The state Department of Environment and Natural Resources ordered Duke Tuesday to stop the wastewater coming from a pipe running under a coal ash dump at its Eden power plant. A nearby pipe at the dump collapsed without warning two weeks ago, coating the river bottom with toxic ash as far as 70 miles downstream.
State regulators expressed concern the second pipe could fail, triggering another spill. Water coming from the pipe contains arsenic at levels 14 times that considered safe for human contact.
Duke had downplayed concerns water flowing from the pipe was contaminated.

#1 Hurricane Gustav's record 212 mph wind gust01-04-2009, 11:42 AM
Hurricane season is of course over but I found this
blog entry pretty interesting weather wise.
Big Gust!
As we look back at the weather events of 2008, perhaps the most impressive record set during the year occurred during Hurricane Gustav, which pounded Cuba as a Category 4 hurricane in August. Gustav set a new world record for highest wind gust ever measured in a hurricane. As Gustav passed over the Paso Real de San Diego meteorological station in the western Cuban province of Pinar del Rio, Cuba, on the afternoon of August 30, 2008, a wind gust of 212 mph (340 km/hr) was recorded.May the FORCE be with you!

Wow. 212.
I lived in Florida for 9 years and we never were hit with a hurricane. (We lived in Jax and Orlando)
We moved to the mountains of north Georgia and then go hit with the remnants of a hurricane (It may have been Opal but I don't remember.) and we had over 100 mph winds I was impressed. I can't imagine 212.Hey careful man! There's a beverage here!

Gustav caused a great deal of damage in Baton Rouge. Many homeowners still have not fixed their damaged roof and have covered them with tarps. The insurance deductibles are so high that they can afford to fix them. Allstate has a 5% deductible on the insured amount of the dwelling. So the deductible on a $200k house would be $10k. State Farm has a 2%. Roofers and construction workers are making a killing here.

CAIRO (AP) — Human Rights Watch said Tuesday that Egypt's security forces likely committed crimes against humanity when it crushed Islamist protests last year, comparing the bloodshed to China's Tiananmen Square massacre and calling for a U.N. investigation into the role of President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, and his security chiefs.
In a 188-page report, the rights group accused security forces of deliberately using excessive force against supporters of Mohammed Morsi, the Islamist president ousted by el-Sissi last summer. It called the crushing of the main protester sit-in at Cairo's Rabaah el-Adawiya Square on Aug. 14, 2013, the "world's largest killings of demonstrators in a single day in recent history."
The Egyptian government angrily rejected the report. After barring Human Rights Watch executives from entering the country to issue the report, it accused the group of bias and implied it was serving the agenda of the Muslim Brotherhood group, from which Morsi hails and which the government labelled a terrorist group.
Based on a year-long investigation into the incidents that followed Morsi's ouster on July 3, 2013, New York-based HRW said it documented at least 817 protesters killed when security forces violently dispersed the Rabaah sit-in. It said the number could be as high as 1,000. The government puts the death toll at 624, while Morsi supporters put it at over 2,500.
"Like in Tiananmen ... we are likely never to know the actual number of people killed in Rabaah," said Omar Shakir, one of the principle researchers of the report, titled "All According to Plan."
Estimates for the toll from China's 1989 crackdown on protesters in Beijing's Tiananmen Square have ranged from the hundreds to the thousands. China allows no public discussion of the events.
In a strongly-worded statement, the Egyptian government said the Rights Watch report's authors operated in Egypt without a permit, calling it a "blatant violation" of the country's sovereignty.
"While it is not surprised by the report, in light of the organizations' clear leaning and methods, the government rejects the report and criticizes its bias," the statement said. Apparently seeking to paint the rights group as linked to the Brotherhood, it said HRW launched its report "in conjunction with suspicious movements by the terrorist group and its supporters, which ... are inciting violence."
The report was launched two days before the one year anniversary of the dispersal, when Morsi supporters plan to protest in commemoration.
The government insisted it observed international standards in dealing with protests, and security officials have said police opened fire in response to gunfire by protesters. Eight policemen were killed during the dispersal. But by the government's own account, only 15 guns were found at the sit-in, nothing that merits such indiscriminate shooting by authorities, the group said.
The report's authors said they had been in touch with government officials throughout their investigation, asking them repeated questions about their policies and planning, but received no response. For the report, Human Rights Watch said it interviewed at least 200 witnesses and reviewed of footage and government statements.
In the days following Morsi's ouster, security and military repeatedly opened fire on protests, killing at least 281 in four different incidents investigated by HRW in July and August before the dispersal of Rabaah and a second sit-in.
"The violations likely amount to crimes against humanity," it said of the crackdown on protesters.
Human Rights Watch called for an international inquiry into el-Sissi and 10 security chiefs over the deaths. Since removing Morsi — in the wake of massive protests against the Islamist leader — el-Sissi has been Egypt's most powerful man. He was elected president in a landslide vote earlier this year.
The group also called on Egypt's allies to suspend military aid and cooperation with Egypt's authorities and military until the government adopts measures to end human rights violations.
"It is very short-sighted on the part of the major Western governments to believe if they just make nice with el-Sissi's government that somehow this imagined transition to democracy which is repeatedly trumpeted will somehow come to pass," HRW Executive Director Kenneth Roth, speaking from New York, said in a videoconference with journalists.
"The message sent so far is that Egypt can get away with mass murder," he said. "That is a disastrous message to try to build a genuine democracy."

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — Gold futures settled lower for a third consecutive session on Wednesday as data showing that the private sector in December added the most jobs in more than a year helped buoy the U.S. dollar.
Prices for the yellow metal continued to decline in electronic trading following the release of the Federal Reserve's December policy meeting minutes, which came after the official close of gold trading on Comex.
Gold for February delivery US:GCG4 fell $4.10, or 0.3%, to settle at $1,225.50 an ounce on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange, while March silver US:SIH4 shed 25 cents, or 1.3%, to $19.54 an ounce.
In electronic trading Wednesday afternoon, gold and silver futures lost more ground, with February gold at $1,219.10 and March silver at $19.39 an ounce.
Minutes from the Fed's Federal Open Market Committee meeting showed that central bank officials agreed in December to start winding down the asset-purchase program as most believed that the benefits of the policy were eroding over time. At the December meeting, the Fed's policy committee announced its decision to begin reducing monetary stimulus.
"The Fed decision to taper is in the rear view mirror, which has greatly reduced the 'shock factor' associated with the perceived effects of reduced liquidity on gold prices," said Jeffrey Sica, president and chief investment officer of Sica Wealth Management, just prior to the minutes' release. "As long as the Fed continues to maintain its decision to taper $10 billion per month, we will see minimal upside volatility in gold [and other] precious-metals prices."
San Francisco Fed President John Williams on Tuesday said the bond-buying program could end in 2014.
Still, "physical gold buyers with a long-term perspective have been responding with increased buying intensity since the Fed meeting announcing the tapering of the Fed bond-buying program," said Michael Haynes, chief executive officer at online precious-metals dealer APMEX Inc. He added that since that date on Dec. 18, APMEX daily direct sales levels as high as 200% of normal activity.
"Many of the physical gold buyers express the belief that the Fed is expected to have challenges with inflation as the multi-trillions of dollars on the balance sheet are returned to the marketplace and accordingly, these buyers are seeking a hedge against the potential economic uncertainty," he said.
Prices for gold during Wednesday's regular Comex trading session closed lower after Automatic Data Processing Inc. said private employers created 238,000 jobs last month, the biggest gain since November 2012. Economists polled by MarketWatch had expected private-sector job gains of 215,000. The data showed a further recovery in the jobs market and boosted the dollar. Upbeat economic data and strength in the dollar tend to dull gold's appeal.
The U.S. government will release its much-anticipated monthly employment data on Friday.
So far this week, gold futures prices have fallen around 1.1%, but they've still gained nearly 2% for the month so far.
"We believe gold prices may continue to rally for a couple of weeks as there has been some improving physical demand from China in particular, and tax-loss sellers from year end may re-enter with new positions," said Robert Haworth, senior investment strategist at the Private Client Reserve at U.S. Bank Wealth Management.
But "in our view, the trend for much of the rest of the year is likely to be negative for gold as the positive trend of global economic growth reduces investor fears and eases overall demand relative to cyclical investments," he said.
Other metals traded on Comex fell on Wednesday. Platinum for April delivery US:PLJ4 lost $1.20, or 0.1%, to $1,414.20 an ounce while March palladium US:PAH4 shed $3.40, or 0.5%, to $738.30 an ounce. High-grade copper for March delivery US:HGH4 closed down nearly 2 cents, or 0.5%, at $3.34 a pound.

Steven Tyler caused his fellow American Idol judge Jennifer Lopez to scream in shock after discovering the rocker taking a dip in a Las Vegas swimming pool completely naked.
The talent show personalities headed to the Wynn Las Vegas resort last week to film an upcoming episode of Idol and they took time out of the shoot to catch a performance of the venue's in-house show Le Reve – The Dream, which features artists dancing underwater.
The show prompted Tyler to later shed his clothes and go skinnydipping in the hotel pool – but his nude swim caught Lopez by surprise.
During a joint appearance on America's The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on Friday, Idol host Seacrest explained, "We flew back from Vegas last night, we were shooting an episode there of Idol… and at the end of a final performance from a contestant, I heard this scream from Jennifer Lopez and I looked up and she was standing over the Le Reve pool. It's a water show, so she's standing over the edge and screaming, looking down at a naked body in the water!"
The nude culprit was identified on the talk show as Tyler and he laughed off the incident with a quip about trying to bed Lopez with his saucy stunt.
Tyler joked, "Hey, I'm from Boston! I love water… Well I sat at La Reve all week and I just thought, I've watched the show all week and I'm a water guy and… I just wanted a good excuse to take my clothes off in front of J.Lo."
Asked what he expected Lopez to do, he burst into song, singing the chorus of Frank Sinatra's High Hopes: "'Cause we had, high hopes…!"
But Tyler insisted he wasn't embarrassed by the incident – because he loves teasing Lopez.
He added, "I live to try to make her blush, I live for it, oh yeah!"

Not sure how to approach this...I need help! I just recently moved to N.C. with my 14 yr old daughter..We are from N.Y. Our atheism, while not well received, has never been faced with anger until now.It seems that my beliefs are viewed as if I killed the messiah myself..should I pretend for my daughters sake that we believe?Any insight would be helpful.
Thanks for your 2 cents! While I was "out" as an atheist in N.Y. I believe I was just tolerated..Here in N.C. I feel like I am committing a crime. I feel so bad for my daughter..she is only 14..maybe i should have kept my views to myself..
Thank you all to the forum!! I'm so confused about what to do..to be honest I'm afraid..in N.Y. I had a support group..here I am alone..
I kinda feel like Nick is right..like I have aids..lol..I don't have aids..I'm from N.Y. but I know what a condom is..lol
There is actually room to out-Christian the Christians.
First game..they huddle...I'm use to this..in N.Y. we talk about kickin ass...crap apparently in N.C. we ask god to protect us..wtf? My daughter popped her head up..looked at me with horror on her face..she kicked ass anyway..but was worried that she didnt know the lords prayer for the next game..
You are supposed to pray in secret (Matt 6:6). If they ask you to a prayer meeting, then whip that one out.
Y'all make it sound like the south is just a pit of hell. Maybe other southerners here agree with you but I don't. Yes, it has its bad parts but don't sit there and tell me there's no prejudice in New England. There's prejudice everywhere. There's racism everywhere. There are people who hate others not like them, everywhere.I've lived in the south all but 2 or so years of my life (which was in Germany), and to an "outsider" I guess it could be seen in such a guise but if I moved to the places y'all have lived in New England, I'd probably feel similar but I wouldn't vocalize it as being something it actually may not be. That would just be a segment of change. A different environment. Something I'm not used to.I really want to say something else but I'll hold it back.-Nam

SEXY PICS: Rihanna takes out anger at Chris Brown by, er, posing naked
AFTER a rumoured falling out with Chris Brown, Rihanna did what she does best - posed naked in some saucy shots.
Wearing nothing but a bra and a furry hood, the sultry pop star sent a series of tweets which appear to be aimed at Brown - who was out with his ex Karrueche Tran last week.
Rihanna tweeted: "examine what you tolerate", "goodbye muthaf**ker" and "you give, you get, then you give it the f**k back".
The pics were posted on pal Melissa Forde's Instagram, who wrote alongside them: "The worst thing about being lied to is knowing you weren't worth the truth!
ABOVE: Rihanna shows us what she's made of
"Being with no-one is better than being with the wrong one."
Far be it from us to wish any sadness on Rihanna, but we do love these revenge pictures!

My first experience with Fantasy Sports came in middle school, when some friends and I organized a Fantasy Basketball league. This was way back in the 1990's. My family did not have cable television. We did not get the Internet until I was a junior in high school. I grew up in the Poconos. We were just thankful when the electricity didn't go out. This was back when the NBA was still a semi-enjoyable sport. Every Tuesday after basketball practice, the activity bus would drop me off at Lewis' Supermarket, where I'd run inside and grab a copy of the USA Today, which published the previous week's NBA stats. I'd then tally up the fantasy totals in a spiral bound notebook. Yes, mine was an exciting childhood.
Over the next decade, improvements in Internet technology brought fantasy sports to the masses. This had a number of results, not the least of which was the warping of public perception regarding baseball trades. Because Joe Blow is able to swing a deal for Andrew McCutchen with a couple clicks of a button, he starts to assume that Ruben Amaro Jr. can do the same. The majority of Phillies fans know this is not true. But a healthy faction of them do. At least, this is the theory I have developed during my four years of monitoring the Internet and airwaves during baseball's off season and pre-trade-deadline rumor mills.
In the real world, trades are difficult, an observation Ruben Amaro Jr. repeats approximately 1,432 times every calendar year, presumably because he cannot go to the grocery store to buy a loaf of bread without the cashier suggesting that he should deal Domonic Brown and Vance Worley to the Mets for David Wright.
In fairness, Amaro set the bar ridiculously high in his first big move as a general manager, when he acquired a cheap and controllable ace for an 18-year-old pitcher coming off a shoulder injury, a utility infielder, and a starting pitcher who had slid down the organization's depth chart. But even the Cliff Lee trade required the Phillies to give up some pieces that would help them now.
This popped into my mind a couple of days ago, when many fans reacted to the Astros' firing of Ed Wade by bemoaning the fact that the Phillies would no longer have somebody to steal All-Stars from. See, that perception of Wade is just wrong, and to me is the product of the Internet age's mentality of immediacy.
Let's look at the two trades the Phillies have swung with the Astros over the last two seasons:
1. Hunter Pence for Jonathan Singleton, Jarred Cosart and Domingo Santana
We said this at the time and we'll say it again: the Phillies absolutely needed to acquire a right-handed-hitting outfielder at last July's trade deadline. Imagine if they did not, and they were now faced with an offseason in which they would be forced to bid aggressively on a player like Josh Willingham or Michael Cuddyer or Carlos Beltran. The Phillies did not neccesarily have to go all-in on Pence, but their desire to do so is understandable: he was a solid hitter with good contact numbers, decent on base numbers, and very good power who also happened to be under club control through 2013.
But the Phillies did not rob Wade by any stretch of the imagination. Singleton, a 19-year-old left-handed first baseman who had torn up the lower levels of the minor leagues, was the centerpiece of the deal. And he continued to show why after the trade, hitting .333/.405/.512 with four home runs in 148 plate appearances for the Astros' High-A affiliate. The Phillies absolutely loved Singleton. In three full seasons in the minors, he has hit .294/.393/.456 with 29 home runs, 150 walks and 210 strikeouts in 1,099 plate appearances. At the same time, he also played first base, a position where the Phillies have $125 million committed through at least 2016. So Singleton was expendable. But he also was just 19 years old, meaning he will be just 24 years old in 2016, which is the last guaranteed year of Ryan Howard's contract. Keep in mind that Howard's rookie season came when he was 25 years old.
The most expendable player was probably Cosart, who at 21 years old was in the middle of a solid campaign at High-A Clearwater, where he was 9-8 with a 3.92 ERA in 108 innings. The Phillies' system was chock full of starting pitching prospects, with Trevor May and Jesse Biddle sharing the top of the list with Cosart. If the Phillies lock up Cole Hamels to a long-term extension, Cosart could have been 26 years old before they were in serious need of a top-of-the-rotation arm. Besides, Cosart's strikeout numbers dropped precipitously between low-A, where he posted a 9.7 K/9, and low-A, where he combined to post a 6.3 K/9 in 2011. You never like to part with young pitching, but Cosart's departure was a better option than younger players like May and Biddle.
But the biggest wild card in the deal is the third player in the package. At the time, he was announced as a player to be named later, which may have caused some folks to overlook the fact that the PTBNL ended up being Domingo Santana, an outfielder who was regarded to have as much upside and raw power as any position player in the system. An international signing out of the Domincan Republic, Santana showed some serious power in 2009 when he hit six home runs, six doubles and a triple in 118 at-bats for the rookie-league Gulf Coast Phillies. He struggled in 2010, hitting just .211/.329/.333 with eight home runs in 351 at-bats at Williamsport and low-A Lakewood. But he was young. Real young.
At the time of the trade, Santana was just 18 years old and in the middle of a solid season at Lakewood, where he hit .269/.345/.434 with seven home runs in 350 at-bats. After the deal, he played just 17 games for the Astros' low-A affiliate, but he hit five home runs and four doubles in 68 at-bats, posting a line of .382/.447/.662. Santana is far from a sure thing. In order to become a bona fide blue-chipper, he needs to cut down on his strikeouts (328 in 887 minor league at-bats), and improve his selectivity (he has walked just 99 times in 1,022 plate appearances). But he was a lot more than a throw-in piece to the package that landed Pence. And as a 6-foot-5, 200-pound right-handed hitting outfielder, he has the physical make-up and home-run strength that will make a scouting director dream until the day he gets a chance to prove himself against big league pitching.
2. Roy Oswalt for J.A. Happ, Anthony Gose and Jonathan Villar
Once again, the devil is in the details. At the time of the deal, the majority of attention was paid to the departure of Happ, who in 2009 went 12-4 with a 2.93 ERA, 6.5 K/9 and 3.0 BB/9 while playing a big role in the Phillies' third-straight NL East title run. Happ started just three games for the Phillies in 2010 thanks to an elbow injury that appeared to affect both his velocity and his control. He put up decent numbers in 13 starts for the Astros the rest of that season, going 5-4 with a 3.75 ERA, 7.6 K/9 and 4.4 BB/9. Some scouts viewed him as nothing more than a bottom-of-the-rotation starter who allowed too many fly balls and walked too many batters to become a consistently above-average NL starter. The Astros claimed they saw him as a No. 3, potential No. 2. Happ had a bizarre year in 2011. His strikeout rate jumped to 7.7-per-nine, but his walk rate also rose to 4.8-per-nine, along his his home run rate (1.2-per-nine). After 22 starts in which he went 4-14 with a 6.26 ERA, the Astros sent Happ to the minors for three weeks. After his return, he finished the season with six starts, going 2-1 with a 2.43 ERA, 34 strikeouts, 20 walks and four home runs in 37 innings.
However Happ's career turns out, it should not overshadow the other two players the Phillies parted with in exchange for Oswalt. First and foremost is center fielder Anthony Gose, who last season hit .253/.349/.415 with, 16 home runs and 70 steals in 85 attempts at Double-A New Hampshire (the Astros did not hold on to Gose, flipping him to Toronto for first baseman Brett Wallace). Gose is likely to be ranked among the top 50 prospects in the game once outlets like Baseball American and Baseball Prospectus and ESPN's Keith Law release their lists for the upcoming season. With Shane Victorino set to hit free agency after the 2012 season, Gose would be heading into a huge season, with a potential invite to spring training this season. He is still raw. He has yet to boast the contact and on base numbers you need to see out of a guy who projects as a top-of-the-order hitter. But his stock continues to rise.
Villar is also an intriguing prospect, particularly since he plays short stop, where the Phillies' system features Freddy Galvis and not much else. The 20-year-old switch-hitter hit .259/.353/.414 with 20 steals in 26 attempts in 207 plate appearances for high-A Lancaster before a promotion to Double-A, where he hit just .231/.301/.386 with 10 home runs and 100 strikeouts in 324 at-bats. He was rated the No. 94 prospect by Baseball America prior to 2011 and was recently ranked the No. 4 prospect in the Astros system.
All things considered, it's hard to argue that Wade did not get good value in either of those two trades. The Phillies were forced to pay a premium for Pence because the Astros appeared to be able to live with his salary for at least the rest of the 2011 season. The Oswalt trade was derided by many, but the biggest knock on them is that they decided to flip Gose for first baseman Brett Wallace, who does not play a premium position and whose development appeared to have tailed off. Maybe the Astros thought they were going to be able to re-sign Michael Bourn to a long-term deal, but Gose is the type of high-upside, premium-position player that a rebuilding organization should covet. Still, when you look at the package of players that the Phillies gave up, as well as the fact that they essentially got one dominant half season and postseason out of Oswalt, as well as the fact that the Astros were dealing a player who had a no-trade clause, thus limiting the market demand for his services, you have to regard the value the Phillies gave up as equitable, at the very least. Keep in mind that the Phillies only traded for Oswalt because they previously traded Cliff Lee for a package of players that is inferior to the one they gave up for Oswalt. Right now, would the Phillies accept a deal if a team offered them Phillippe Aumont, Tyson Gillies and J.C. Ramirez for Gose, Villar and Happ? Gose is well ahead of Gillies in his development and Happ would give the Phillies better depth than Ramirez. If Aumont can live up to the glowing reviews the Phillies gave him after an impressive 2011 season, he could end up balancing things out. But he also doesn't play short stop and right now projects as a reliever.
None of this is to say that the Phillies lost either of these trades, nor that they were unwise to make them. I was hesitant about the Oswalt trade at the time, given his injury history. And I'm still not sure that the Phillies would not have been better off looking to hang on to Gose and Happ while looking to deal lesser prospects for depth in the infield and bullpen.
Truth is, we won't know any of these answers for several years. Chances are, none of the aforementioned players ends up giving the Phillies the production they have received and will receive out of Oswalt and Pence.
But it is also unfair to paint Wade as some sort of bumbling buffoon who allowed his mentor to take advantage of him.
Here are a couple of posts by the folks over at The Good Phight that look at Wade's dealings with the Phillies, including the 2007 Brad Lidge trade.
