It has been a while since I last wrote something for a meme monday. This month is a perfect time to jump back in the deep end.
If you don't know what a meme monday is, then here is a little recap. Thomas LaRock started this to assist in getting the blog writing juices flowing. He provides a simple, usually open ended topic. As with most memes, you should write something if you get "tagged," but you can participate without the tag. In fact, I usually forget to tag somebody and have yet to be tagged (to my knowledge anyway).
This month, the topic is SQL Family.
SQL Family
What is the SQL Family? Well, loosely stated I think of a family as a close knit group of individuals working together with common goals and helping each other – a lot.
How does that translate to the SQL Family? The SQL Family is very big from my point of view. I have blogged a few times about this family. You will usually see me referring to this family as community.
What does this SQL Family do for you and me? A LOT!!! Here are some of the things I know that this group of people does for you and me.
Support – Have you ever experienced something that is not SQL related? This group of individuals will lend a hand, shoulder, limb or what is needed in many circumstances. From bullying to death to divorce to a hospitalized child at one end of the spectrum to marriage, child birth, awards and recognition at the other end. This group will be there for you.
Train – what other group of professionals regularly gives of time and money to train and teach you every weekend – somewhere/somehow? It's not just the training on the weekends – it goes far deeper than that. Many write books on the topic of SQL. And these people make themselves available to train via twitter, forums, email, and in person. Granted, not all of this training is free – but there is a ton of it that is free.
Help – Have you heard of the twitter hashtag #sqlhelp? How about the msdn forums? Have you heard of SQLServerCentral? How about Stackoverflow? There are so many people giving of their time to help other database people get better at what they do. On the other side of the coin, the family is also there to help proof read and tech edit articles and books. Not to mention that they often times find themselves helping by lending a professional opinion from anything SQL related at work to professional behavior in the workplace.
Fraternize – The SQL family, like most families, is not all work all the time. There is a lot of play, chit chat and hanging out going on in this group. This comes in real handy when you are out of town – in a place you don't know too well. There is plenty of joking as these people become friends. There is a level of trust and respect that is gained. So much so that these people will jump to your side quickly to defend you – just as you would do for your little sister or brother.
Network – Have you ever been in need of a break? Maybe just a way to get to that next job? The network that comes with this family is pretty vast. You will have exposure to many more opportunities than you might have expected looking on your own.
These are all benefits of the SQL Family. I have talked a lot about what they do for you. As with good families, it goes both ways. It's not required for you to do all of these things. But, once you start seeing what has been done for you – it is very hard to not reciprocate in some way. The more everybody contributes, the stronger this family becomes. Not only does the family become stronger – but you gain and grow far more than a) without the family and b) just leaching from the family.

Watt and Gregson win, Hough has arrived
4 February 2013
London 2012 Olympians Mitchell Watt (Qld), Ryan Gregson (NSW) and Anthony Alozie (NSW) have launched their 2013 season in style by winning their respective events at the Hunter Track Classic.
Equally dominant was Australian under 20 110m hurdles record holder Nicholas Hough (NSW), with the 19-year-old announcing himself as one to watch after strong victories in the men's 110m hurdles and the men's 200m.
Introduced to the crowd from the back of a black stretch limousine, the Oceania and Australian record holder Watt was the star attraction in Newcastle (NSW) and he delivered.
Competing off a shortened run-up of ten steps, approximately half a complete approach, Watt was looking for 7.50m coming into competition. Soaring 7.22m (w: +0.5) to commence his four-jump series, the 24-year-old fouled in round two before his winning leap of 7.54m (w: +1.5) and a 7.46m (w: +2.2) closer.
Watt said: "That went really well. It felt good to be out there and I was able to hit the seven and a half metre mark that I was chasing so on the whole the meet has gone to plan. The atmosphere here has been great. It has been the a pretty perfect season opener really."
"This was probably my first real test. I have done a couple of similar sessions to this back in Brisbane these past few weeks and to convert it to actual competition is great.
A medal winner on every occasion he has competed for Australia, Watt's Olympic silver sits alongside silver and bronze from the IAAF World Championships and a bronze from the IAAF World Indoor Championships.
With gold firmly in his sights at the Moscow-hosted IAAF World Championships later this year, the hit-out tonight improves his confidence for what could come.
Watt continued: "I don't want to get ahead of myself but what I have jumped here off this approach is better than what I was jumping in 2012. That gives me confidence that my body is in good shape and that the elusive gold I want may be around the corner.
"Realistically though it is a very long season and this is February. The World Championships aren't until August and I need to make sure that I can find what I need to there. I haven't been able to do that in the past and that's obviously what needs to change.
"My body has been in great shape since properly recovering after London and I have enjoyed a full pre-season which is great. It's better than what I have had in recent years and fingers crossed that continues."
Second placed was taken home by Commonwealth Youth Games representative Angus Gould (ACT, 7.38m, w: 0.0), with decathlete Sean Fletcher (NSW, 7.35m, w: +1.7) third.
Watt's 2012 London Olympic Games teammates Gregson and Alozie also won, with both crossing the line in front.
The Australian 1500m record holder Gregson held off a late charge from national champion Johnny Rayner (Vic, second, 1:49.23) to win the men's 800m, while Alozie clocked 10.66 (w: +0.4) to win the last event of the night, the men's 100m.
The performance of the meet, however, arguably came from the 2012 IAAF World Junior Championships silver medallist Hough.
Competing in the high hurdles for the first time on the National Athletics Series, Hough battled for the length of the straight with two-time national champion Justin Merlino (NSW, second, 14.08) and Ben Khongbut (Vic, third, 14.15) before edging them out on the line to win in a wind assisted personal best of 14.06 (w: 3.1).
Hough, who is coached by Anthony Benn, then returned to the track to clock a meet record of 20.92 (w: +1.2) and win the men's 200m. The fastest man in Australia across the distance in 2012, Hough's form across the longer of the short sprints continued, with his time edging out 2011 Stawell Gift winner Mitchell Williams-Swain (Qld, second, 21.09) and Dylan Grant (Qld, third, 21.28).
Hough said: "I was a bit shocked when the hurdles got underway actually, I thought there were a few that twitched. Once we were off I settled quickly and was able to come through with the win and that is great.
"Coming up to the high hurdles was daunting but it has been quite smooth since I did it. I was only talking last week about how I thought they were too low at training, but when I checked they were correct, so it is amazing how quickly you adapt to a new challenge.
"I've been running really well in the 200m too. I've qualified for the Universiade in the 200m, and my big aim this year is to push for a World Championships qualifier in the longer of the short sprints. Even a relay spot would be an amazing opportunity. I just need to track how I go in the next month, make a call about what suits for the Selection Trial, and then hope I'm good enough to challenge for a ticket to Moscow.
"It's a week to week process at the moment. I'm not committing to anything specific, but instead will see how my season progresses and make a call from there."
Continuing to provide innovative athletics, the Hunter Track Classic also featured a Wheelchair 2000m Team Pursuit.
A first for Australia, if not the world, the race was fought out across 2000m, with Team Green of Angela Ballard (NSW), Sam Carter (Vic), Jake Lappin (Vic), Nathan Arkley (SA) and Canadian Michelle Stilwell taking victory in a time of 4:54.80.
Ballard said: "It's just a bit of fun to compete like that. We haven't done it before and it was good to see the crowd getting behind us. We don't always have the numbers to showcase what we do in a really competitive way, but the format tonight brought together athletes from different classes and of different genders in a team race where we all had to use our strengths to win.
Ballard, who won three medals at the London 2012 Paralympic Games, arrived in Newcastle after competing at the Summer Downunder Series and is now looking ahead to the 2013 IPC Athletics World Championships in Lyon (FRA) this July.
Ballard continued: "I'm a little bit ahead of where I thought I would be at this time of year which is good. My coach Louise (Sauvage) and I are going to sit down this week and come up with my hopeful race schedule for the world champs. It will be sprints focused again and on the back of London I am confident of performing well and winning some medals."
In other highlights:
- 2011 IAAF World Championships representative Anneleise Rubie (NSW) was dominant in the women's 400m, crossing in a time of 53.57 to win from American Jernail Hayes (second, 54.69)
- Paul Robinson (IRL) won the men's 1500m in 3:42.54, as James Kaan (NSW, 3:43.41) crossed second and Josh Wright (NSW, 3:43.76) third.
- Local favourite Sophie Stanwell (NSW) improved her personal best to 24.17 (w: -1.3) to win the women's 200m, while Angella Byrt (Vic, 11.93, w: -0.4) took line honours in the women's 100m.
- Local favourite Liam Speers (NSW, first, 51.43m) and two-time IAAF World Junior Championships representative Kim Mulhall (Vic, first, 50.76m) won the men's and women's discus throw respectively. Australian record holder Benn Harradine (NSW) withdrew from competition ahead of today's meet.
- Hamish Peacock (Tas) heaved 78.75m to win the men's javelin from Matt Outzen (NSW, second, 74.43m) and Khaira Ravinder (Vic, third, 72.42m).
The National Athletics Series now moves to Adelaide (SA) in two weeks time, with Kim Mickle (WA) set to start in the women's javelin and Melissa Breen (ACT) on the track for the women's short sprints.

It was a typical day at the office for Bill Moseley.
"I was lying on the floor of the house, right inside the front door, and down the hall the sliding steel door was open and there was red felt with a bunch of animal skulls," the actor said on a recent sunny morning over coffee, recounting his experience shooting the new horror film "Texas Chainsaw 3D." "People were stepping over me because I was staying in position for the next shot, and I was covered with blood and a bunch of chicken feathers and it was hot and I was all squishy, but I had that moment of, yeah, I'm home."
Mainstream moviegoers might not immediately recognize Moseley's name, but the 61-year-old character actor is well known to horror fans. Since his breakthrough role as the character Chop Top in 1986's "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2," Moseley's carved out a gruesome niche for himself with parts in such movies as "Army of Darkness," "House of 1000 Corpses," "Repo! The Genetic Opera" and "2001 Maniacs: Field of Screams."
In "Texas Chainsaw 3D," the Lionsgate horror sequel that opened Friday, he plays the father to the power-tool-wielding villain Leatherface in a 1970s-set prologue.
Moseley is one of a community of actors — Robert Englund, Kane Hodder, Sid Haig, Michael Berryman, Doug Bradley, Ken Foree, William Forsythe, Linnea Quigley, Debbie Rochon and Dee Wallace, among others — who appear in genre films together and frequent the international circuit of horror conventions the way some performers make the rounds of film festivals each year.
Moseley's filmography includes "Pink Cadillac," starring Clint Eastwood, and Disney's Jack London adaptation "White Fang," and he's appeared on television series including "ER," "The Practice," even "Days of Our Lives." But more often, it's grimmer fare that pays the bills — cannibals, child murderers, he's even due to play Charles Manson in a movie set for release later this year.
"It's cool to know that you can love monsters," Moseley said. "For most kids, that's a phase. For me, I'm so grateful to have been able to extend it for a few more years."
It's an unusual career for a Yale grad with a degree in English who still enjoys reading Dostoevsky. But to hear Moseley tell it, his path to acting, specifically his involvement with the "Chainsaw" movies, might as well have been preordained.
He already had graduated from college and was working as a copywriter at an ad agency in Boston when he caught a double feature of "Enter the Dragon" and "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" in the city's seedy adult-entertainment district then known as the "Combat Zone." He doesn't remember the year exactly, maybe 1975, maybe 1976. But the images in Tobe Hooper's film stayed with him.
"To me, it was so powerful," Moseley said. "I kept desperately looking for the zipper in the costume, the boom shadow, something to give me a bit of distance. Never happened. It really disturbed me. I'm from rural America, Northern Illinois, it just kind of bent my view of country folk."
Moseley wasn't alone in his assessment. Hooper's dark nightmare of murder and cannibalism in the American South has become, in the years since its original release, a landmark in the horror genre and in the world of independent filmmaking. Along with George Romero's "Night of the Living Dead" and Wes Craven's "The Last House on the Left," "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" is one of a wave of subversive underground horror pictures released in the late '60s and early '70s that channeled the anxiety surrounding contemporary social issues — civil rights, the trauma of the Vietnam War, economic woes — into transgressive cinema.
The story recounts the events that befall five friends on an insufferably hot August day. After hearing reports of grave desecrations, the group — Sally Hardesty (Marilyn Burns), her brother Franklin (Paul A. Partain), her boyfriend Jerry (Allen Danziger) and friends Kirk and Pam (William Vail and Teri McMinn) — drives to a remote cemetery to ensure that the remains of the Hardestys' grandfather are intact.
Along their route, they offer a lift to a strange-looking hitchhiker (Edwin Neal) who turns out to be less than the ideal travel companion. Clearly mentally disturbed, the man takes out a dirty blade and begins to slice open his palm while the friends look on in horror and disbelief. They manage to evict the creep from their van, but before long, they've stumbled on an old farmhouse, accidentally wandering inside the building into a nightmare involving a group of disfigured and depraved men who have taken the family profession of butchery to new extremes.
Before long, the travelers are at the mercy of Leatherface (Gunnar Hansen), a chainsaw-wielding madman who wears a mask made from human skin. The character, now one of the chief members of the slasher pantheon, was loosely based on Wisconsin serial killer Ed Gein and therefore takes on some of Gein's most abhorrent proclivities.
In a review published Jan. 1, 1974, Roger Ebert described "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" as a "real Grand Guignol of a movie … without any apparent purpose, unless the creation of disgust and fright is a purpose." Still, he pointed out "it's well-made, well-acted, and all too effective."
"What I tried to do is to see the movie – that was back in the day when videotape was just coming in so it was harder to get a hold of 'Chainsaw' or see it in the theaters," Moseley said. "I probably ended up seeing it another 10 times, just to try to make it so familiar that I'd finally be able to get over it. Every time I saw it, it just pounded that spike deeper, it didn't relieve me of whatever had twisted me."
In a final attempt to come to terms with his strange fixation with the film, Moseley made a five-minute short called "The Texas Chainsaw Manicure," about a woman who asks to get her nails done at a salon and is taken aback when Leatherface turns up to perform the service. Turns out, he does a smashing job, and the woman shows off her nails to her husband, played in a cameo by Moseley, dressed as Neal's hitchhiker.
At the time, Moseley was living in New York working as a freelance writer, and he tried to sell the short to late-night comedy shows, "Fridays" and "Saturday Night Live," with no success. But some screenwriter friends in Los Angeles who had an office on the Paramount lot adjacent to Hooper told Moseley they'd take a copy to the filmmaker.
Moseley remembers a genial phone call from Hooper who told him, "Gee, Bill, if I ever do a sequel I'll keep you in mind."
A couple of years later, he was in Austin working on the movie.
"I got over my fear of 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre,' that was what did it," Moseley said. "It was a mind-blower. All of a sudden I was a part of the 'Chainsaw' family and I wasn't afraid anymore."
Growing up in Barrington, Ill., Moseley would sneak into the family library when his father, a former Marine, was asleep, to watch atomic age horror movies — "Beginning of the End," "Attack of the Giant Leeches" — on the black-and-white TV. He says his family was "Halloween-friendly," always willing to engage in spooky practical jokes, so his interest in ghoulish entertainment didn't raise an eyebrow.
He traces his transformation into a full-time monster not to Chop Top, but to his performance as Otis in Rob Zombie's grindhouse extravaganza "House of 1000 Corpses." The pair met at the 1999 Eyegore Awards, the annual ceremony that helps kick off Universal Studios Hollywood's Halloween Horror Nights event, which Moseley hosted as his "Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2" character.
A few weeks later, the actor was offered a starring role in Zombie's feature directorial debut about a family of sadistic killers who abduct and torture four college kids — other horror film favorites including Karen Black, Haig and Tom Towles were cast in the film.
"It couldn't have come at a better time," Moseley said. "All actors go through highs and lows, and I think at the time I was having trouble getting extra work, frankly."
Still, after the movie was completed, it sat on the shelf for years when Universal, citing concerns over its graphic content, chose not to release the film; it ultimately found a home at Lionsgate, which finally opened "House of 1000 Corpses" in 2003. Zombie made a sequel, "The Devil's Rejects," in 2005, and between the two projects, Moseley said his career regained momentum.
"Once 'House of 1000 Corpses' came out, I guess that firmly established me as a horror guy," he said. "Everybody who liked 'Devil's Rejects' was interested in hiring me for their movie, [playing] different kinds of characters, that's pretty much the story."
He says he truly enjoys the niche he's found and doesn't spend much time wishing for a career in more overtly commercial movies. He watches all the films in which he appears and stays current with other horror titles too.
"I'm a big fan of [Takashi] Miike, 'Audition,' 'Ichi the Killer' is one of my faves," Moseley said. "I liked 'I Saw the Devil.' They're pretty extreme, but I loved the two 'Human Centipede' films from Tom Six. Those movies are fun because they're well-made. They're crazy and psychotic and perverted and twisted, but they're really well-made."
Moseley spent about five days in 100-plus-degree temperatures filming his scenes for "Texas Chainsaw 3D" last summer on a set, just outside Shreveport, La., designed to look exactly like the Sawyer house from the original film. In preparing for the new role, he went back and watched the original one more time.
Finally, Moseley had a chance to admire the handiwork of Hooper and his team, including cinematographer Daniel Pearl, on a film that is now a part of the permanent collection at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and the basis for what a new team of producers is hoping will be a successful horror franchise.
"What I was noticing was just how beautifully it was shot," Moseley said. "It was the first time I was able to pull away from the story and just look at some of the artistic aspects of the moviemaking, what an amazing Leatherface Gunnar Hansen was, how much I owe to Ed Neal's performance, I'd never seen any character like that. I don't think I'd ever seen a scene before when the monster actually scares you by hurting himself. Everything about that movie was so groundbreaking and such a mind-blower."

President Bill Clinton, Founder of the William J. Clinton Foundation and 42nd President of the United States, will be the keynote speaker at the University of Rochester's Meliora Weekend, Oct. 20 to 23, 2011.
President Clinton's appearance coincides with the launch of Meliora Weekend's second decade. The annual alumni reunion, homecoming, and family weekend attracts some 6,000 attendees each year for four days of lectures, performances, seminars, and social gatherings. The first Meliora Weekend was held in 2001. Previous keynote speakers for the Meliora Weekend include medical correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta, University of Rochester alumnus and U.S. Secretary of Energy Steven Chu, journalist Anderson Cooper, and General Colin Powell, USA (Ret.). Hillary Rodham Clinton was the keynote speaker at Meliora Weekend in 2002.
President Clinton was the first Democratic president in six decades to be elected twicefirst in 1992 and then in 1996. According to the Clinton Foundation, the country enjoyed the strongest economy in a generation and the longest economic expansion in U.S. history, including the creation of more than 22 million jobs under President Clinton's leadership.
After leaving the White House, President Clinton established the William J. Clinton Foundation with the mission to strengthen the capacity of people in the United States and throughout the world to meet the challenges of global interdependence. According to the Foundation, its staff and volunteers around the world work to improve lives through several initiatives, including the Clinton HIV/AIDS Initiative (now the Clinton Health Access Initiative, a separate nonprofit organization) which is helping 2 million people living with HIV/AIDS access lifesaving drugs. Other initiativesincluding the Clinton Climate Initiative, the Clinton Hunter Development Initiative, and the Clinton Giustra Sustainable Growth Initiativeare applying a business-oriented approach worldwide to fight climate change and develop sustainable economic growth in Africa and Latin America. As a project of the Foundation, the Clinton Global Initiative brings together global leaders to devise and implement innovative solutions to some of the world's most pressing issues. In the U.S., the Foundation is working to combat the alarming rise in childhood obesity through the Alliance for a Healthier Generation, and is helping individuals and families succeed and small businesses grow.
In addition to his Foundation work, President Clinton joined with former President George H.W. Bush three timesafter the 2004 tsunami in South Asia, Hurricane Katrina in 2005, and Hurricane Ike in 2008to help raise money for recovery efforts and served as the U.N. Envoy for Tsunami Recovery.
President Clinton was named U.N. Special Envoy for Haiti in 2009 to assist the government and the people of Haiti as they "build back better" after a series of hurricanes battered the country in 2008. Following last year's devastating earthquake, President Clinton dedicated Clinton Foundation resources to help with immediate and long term relief and assistance, and at the request of President Obama, joined with President George W. Bush to establish the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund, which supports highly effective organizations on the ground in long-term rebuilding efforts.
President Clinton was born on August 19, 1946, in Hope, Arkansas. He and his wife Secretary Hillary Rodham Clinton have one daughter, Chelsea, and live in Chappaqua, New York.
The complete Meliora Weekend program will be announced this summer. For details, visit the Meliora Weekend web pages at http://www.rochester.edu/melioraweekend/.

The current issue of The New Republic has a long attack on Friedrich Hayek, Milton Friedman, and free market economics generally by the Nobel laureate economist Robert Solow, entitled "Hayek, Friedman, and the Illusions of Conservative Economics." Ostensibly a review of the brand new book The Great Persuasion: Reinventing Free Markets Since the Great Depression by Angus Burgin, the review is less about the book than it is an excuse for Solow to vent his complaints against the more popular Friedman and Hayek. (That TNR intends it as a hit piece is seen from the unattractive photos TNR chose to use with the online version of the article.)
It really chafes his chaps that people like Hayek and Friedman receive such attentiveness from biographers while no one ever writes books about Solow, or Galbraith, or Samuelson. And Solow works overtime to heap scorn on the Mont Pelerin Society (MPS), the intellectual organization Hayek helped to found in the late 1940s that became a leading node for reviving free market thought. And Solow employs one of the oldest tricks in the book, trying to divine a "good Hayek" from a "bad Hayek," which is what you do when you want to marginalize the uncongenial findings of an intellectual that are impossible to dismiss.
It's even worse than that when you think about it for a moment. While conservative intellectuals, office holders (think of Paul Ryan, or Michele Bachmann, who cited Ludwig von Mises as an influence in her thinking), grassroots Tea Party activists all speak openly of the their fondness for Hayek and Friedman, when was the last time you heard a liberal—any kind of liberal—express excitement over or attribute inspiration from a liberal economist—even Keynes? Does anybody still read John Kenneth Galbraith? Does any real human being anywhere say, "Oooh, Paul Samuelson! He's my hero!" Does anyone still read the economist who was the co-winner of the Nobel Prize along with Hayek in 1974? (Anyone know who it was? Bueller? Bueller? It was Myrdal . . . Gunnar Myrdal.) Is there any equivalent organization to the Mont Pelerin Society for liberal economists? If there is, I'm unaware of it. (Offering the American Economic Association is cute, but doesn't count.) Yes, liberals love Paul Krugman, but not for his economic scholarship. Can anyone at MSNBC name a single economic concept of Krugman's? (Higher income tax rates don't count. Heck, Krugman hasn't even bothered to come up with his own curve on a restaurant napkin.)
So, yeah, this review looks like a fancy case of envy mixed with sour grapes, which is not a drinkable varietal except in appellation Harvard Square. Moreover, it seems to me that his dismissal of the Mont Pelerin Society is way off the mark. So what if the MPS didn't publish an academic journal; by my count, its membership or frequent attendees includes at least seven Nobel Prize winners—Hayek, Friedman, Buchanan, Stigler, Coase, North, and Bhagwati. (Cancel Bhagwati: turns out he only won the Nobel Prize on an episode of The Simpsons.) It also counted among its members Vaclav Klaus, the splendid sometimes president of the Czech Republic. Not bad for what Solow finds an "insignificant organization."
Now I could go through a lengthy fisking of Solow's piece, but Tyler Cowan has a nice short smackdown over at the Marginal Revolution blog (a site worth reading frequently if you follow economics):
Solow neglects to mention that Milton Friedman turned out to be right on most of the issues he discussed (though targeting money doesn't work), that MPS economists shaped at least two decades of major and indeed beneficial economic reforms across the world, or that some number of the economists at MIT envied the growth performance of the Soviet Union and that such remarks were found in the most popular economics textbook in the profession. You can consider this essay a highly selective, error-laden, and disappointing account of a topic which could in fact use more serious scrutiny. . . Solow should have started his piece with a sentence like "Milton Friedman was not right about everything, but most of his criticisms of my earlier views have been upheld by subsequent economic theory and practice…."
And that's just the warm up act. I'll add that it is some of Solow's core ideas about economic growth that are now under suspicion by a number of economists, as noted in my post here just the other day. I'll confine myself to just one observation about the churlishness of Solow's piece, which comes with this statement: "There is not much guidance here for a member of the Interstate Commerce Commission who has to worry about the regulation of imperfectly competitive railroad and trucking industries." Wait a minute—would this be the same Interstate Commerce Commission that was abolished 25 years ago primarily as a result of the critiques of people like Friedman that ICC regulation actually stifled competition and harmed the consumer? Perhaps no one has told Solow. . .

Elevating and Optimizing Your Laptop and Monitor Setup
It looks like Maxwell beat me to the punch, as he chose the Heartwork Bravo Pedestal as his Daily Find pick for today. I had their No. 1 Monitor Stand bookmarked for both it's simple design and function, handy for anyone docking their laptop to an external monitor or use with a Mac mini or similarly mini-sized desktop. You also get the bonus of elevating your screen a few inches, helpful if you're a taller user who would benefit from improved ergonomics and line of sight with the screen...
No.1 Monitor Stand came about because Heartwork's first client was frustrated with imported monitor stands that had a lot of extra parts detracting from what he felt should be a simple, straightforward design. Insprired by Donald Judd, No.1 Monitor Stand is made in the USA from one piece of bent, 11 gauge steel powder-coated in matte white. Looks equally good with Macs and PCs. This stand raises monitors to a comfortable viewing height to help prevent neck strain. Stow laptops underneath for in-office use or extra desktop space. Equal parts simple, elegant, and functional. 17"L x 9"W x 5"H. $45.00
We always love to give a DIY option for those inclined to skip the off-the-shelf solution. Here's a reminder about a DIY Rolling Monitor Stand designed to make carting around an iMac across a shared desk a whole lot easier.
It's not necessarily a monitor stand, but you could possibly cut the back of the IKEA BOALT to hide away a USB hub, router, or other peripherals from view while elevating your screen.
And finally, if you're really going for a full-on Apple aesthetic, the Just Mobile Mtable Stand tucks in a MacBook Pro up to 15" and supports even the hefty Cinema Display for just a nickel under $70.

GIS Guides Cleanup and Construction in Tornado Aftermath21 Sep, 2011 By: JoAnne Castagna
In Joplin, Missouri, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers creates maps to help field personnel remove debris and locate safe shelter sites.
On the evening of May 22, 2011, a multiple-vortex tornado plowed through the community of Joplin, Missouri. Powerful winds reaching 250 mph shattered the windows of St. John's Regional Medical Center, scattering broken glass on top of critically ill patients and sweeping up furniture, supplies, and medicine into a whirlwind within the violently shaking walls of the hospital.
Terri Edens, an emergency room nurse, was working at the hospital when the storm struck. "When things settled down, we evacuated patients and grabbed what medical supplies and water we could and continued their care in a parking lot outside of the hospital.
"When we got outside," she continued, "we saw how extensive the damage was to the hospital and surrounding area. We then started to receive the walking wounded. A nearby production theater was flattened, and its actors and attendees were streaming our way and people from area homes started flooding our ambulance bay doors."

St. John's was just one of the critical public facilities severely damaged during this tornado; schools and fire stations also fell within the funnel's path, which measured approximately one mile wide and six miles long. The deadliest and costliest tornado the United States has experienced in more than 50 years severely damaged or destroyed thousands of buildings, and killed more than 150 individuals.
Managing a Major Mess
Soon after the tornado struck, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and partnering agencies were on the scene, organizing a herculean debris removal effort. The tornado left behind approximately 2 million cubic yards of debris, which is equivalent to 400 football fields piled 3 feet high with rubble. USACE has been using GIS for years to coordinate the removal of massive amounts of debris, relying on the technology after Hurricane Katrina, 9/11 at the World Trade Center, and several California wildfires.

"The GIS (geographic information system) takes data from various sources, including aerial photographs and electronic data, and combines these layers of information in various ways to create maps. These maps can be used to perform many different missions and solve complex problems," said Stephen McDevitt, GIS, USACE, New York District, who is one of four national action officers responsible for deploying and managing GIS teams throughout disaster regions.
McDevitt deployed Army Corps GIS specialists to Joplin right after the devastation. They were joined by collaborating agencies including the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the City of Joplin, and the U.S. National Guard. The team used Esri ArcGIS to create maps of the area.
"From this team of agencies we collected a multitude of information that we layered to create maps, to assist with the many Army Corps missions," said Stephen Long, GIS specialist, Philadelphia District, USACE.
"We combined pre- and post-disaster aerial photography, parcel and property information from the city and county, sewer and water line information from utility companies, and electrical line data. In addition, Army Corps staff in the field collected data using GPS units, which we added to this mix," said Long, who has been an active member of the Army Corps GIS team for 10 years.
On a map that resembles a Google Earth image, the team overlaid street information and color-coded property outlines. A red outline meant the property owners had signed a Right-of-Entry form allowing USACE personnel to clear the property, a yellow outline meant a form wasn't signed yet, an orange outline indicated the cleanup was in progress, and green-outlined properties had already been cleared of debris.
These maps were updated daily and provided to the staff who were maneuvering five hundred debris-removal trucks around Joplin — no easy task since street signs had been blown away and landmarks destroyed. With the GIS maps, field workers knew not only where the streets were, but also which residential and commercial properties needed to be cleared next.
"One hour in the desk can probably save a whole day for one person out in the field," said Nicholas Laskowski, GIS specialist, Galveston, Texas District, USACE.

Safe Sites for Shelter
Along with the debris mission, USACE was also called upon to manage the construction of emergency housing and temporary critical public facilities, such as schools and fire stations. Maps were created to determine that the land being considered for these uses was suitable and safe.
"The community selected several pieces of land to place temporary housing and to relocate critical public facilities, but before a piece of land could be selected, we had to make sure it met certain requirements," said Howard Ruben, NEPA compliance specialist, New York District, who volunteered to deploy to Joplin to make sure that all Army Corps construction locations complied with federal and state environmental regulations.
Ruben explained, "The land had to be away from the devastation and any flood zones and be near water, sewer, and electric lines, so that they could tap into these utilities."
Also, in some cases, it was desirable to find land close to where the original facilities stood. For example, many school personnel wanted to set up shop close to their original locations, so as not to make getting to school difficult for children. It was also important for the two temporary firehouses to be located near their original sites to retain full coverage of fire services in their communities.
"Not only did our maps show where there was safe land away from flood zones and near utilities, but specific property details," said Long. "In the background of the map, additional information could be pulled up by clicking on the property. This information included the owner of the property, tax ID numbers, and square footage, among other things."
If a property was in a suitable location, Army Corps real estate personnel could use this information to contact the property owner and find out if they were willing to rent or sell the property, so that the land could be used for temporary housing or to relocate a critical infrastructure.
Edens looks forward to the completion of the hospital's temporary facility, "It will be very nice to have more space and solid walls again, but mainly we look forward to continuing to do the job we love — which is serving our community."

YORKTOWN HEIGHTS, NY -- Lenox Hill Hospital today announced the opening of its Heart and Vascular Institute in Yorktown Heights -- the first facility for the hospital or the North Shore-LIJ Health System in Westchester County. The opening of the new 3,200-square-foot medical practice reflects the health system's continued efforts to expand its medical services outside of its 16 hospitals and into community settings, where North Shore-LIJ now has about 400 outpatient physician practices throughout the New York metropolitan area.
North Shore-LIJ invested about $1 million to renovate and furnish the Lenox Hill Heart and Vascular Institute, located at 2649 Strang Blvd, in Yorktown Heights, which includes four procedure rooms outfitted with advanced medical equipment and technology dedicated to cardiac non-invasive testing and vascular procedures. All patients seen at the facility are able to receive specialized testing and evaluation on the premises. Patients have direct access to board-certified cardiologists Varinder Singh, MD, chair of cardiovascular medicine, and director of clinical and interventional cardiology at Lenox Hill Hospital; Binoy Singh, MD, the hospital's associate director of cardiology; and Sabrina Sawhney, MD.
"This is an exciting time for Lenox Hill Hospital and the entire North Shore-LIJ Health System as we broaden our reach beyond our traditional boundaries," said Michael Dowling, president and chief executive officer of the North Shore-LIJ Health System. "Given Lenox Hill Hospital's proximity to Westchester County and the Grand Central Terminal that thousands of commuters from the northern suburbs rely on to get to and from Manhattan, we hope the Lenox Hill Heart and Vascular Institute will be the first of many physician practices we'll be opening in Westchester."
Lenox Hill Hospital was ranked among the nation's top 34 hospitals in Heart and Heart Surgery in US News & World Report's 23rd annual Best Hospitals' edition.

On September 23, Nation editor Katrina vanden Heuvel and her husband, Stephen F. Cohen, a contributing editor, interviewed former Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev at his foundation in Moscow. With the twentieth anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall approaching, we believed that the leader most responsible for that historic event should be heard, on his own terms, in the United States. As readers will see, the discussion became much more wide-ranging. –The Editors
Historic events quickly generate historical myths. In the United States it is said that the fall of the Berlin Wall and the end of a divided Europe was caused by a democratic revolution in Eastern Europe or by American power, or both. What is your response?
Those developments were the result of perestroika in the Soviet Union, where democratic changes had reached the point by March 1989 that for the first time in Russia's history democratic, competitive elections took place. You remember how enthusiastically people participated in those elections for a new Soviet Congress. And as a result thirty-five regional Communist Party secretaries were defeated. By the way, of the deputies elected, 84 percent were Communists, because there were a lot of ordinary people in the party–workers and intellectuals.
On the day after the elections, I met with the Politburo, and said, "I congratulate you!" They were very upset. Several replied, "For what?" I explained, "This is a victory for perestroika. We are touching the lives of people. Things are difficult for them now, but nonetheless they voted for Communists." Suddenly one Politburo member replied, "And what kind of Communists are they!" Those elections were very important. They meant that movement was under way toward democracy, glasnost and pluralism.
Analogous processes were also under way in Eastern and Central Europe. On the day I became Soviet leader, in March 1985, I had a special meeting with the leaders of the Warsaw Pact countries, and told them: "You are independent, and we are independent. You are responsible for your policies, we are responsible for ours. We will not intervene in your affairs, I promise you." And we did not intervene, not once, not even when they later asked us to. Under the influence of perestroika, their societies began to take action. Perestroika was a democratic transformation, which the Soviet Union needed. And my policy of nonintervention in Central and Eastern Europe was crucial. Just imagine, in East Germany alone there were more than 300,000 Soviet troops armed to the teeth–elite troops, specially selected! And yet, a process of change began there, and in the other countries, too. People began to make choices, which was their natural right.

When Santa turns bad: the most likely items to be stolen from your home
High-tech items – likely to be popular Christmas gifts – are among the top 10 items likely to be reported stolen, according to insurers.
The data refers to thefts in the 2016-17 financial year, according to the NRMA in NSW and RACV in Victoria.
Jewellery took the top spot in both states, with the NRMA receiving more than 5300 stolen jewellery claims and the RACV nearly 3200.
However, the second items on the list were quite different between the states, with hardware and hand tools second in Victoria at 1104 claims, but only sixth in NSW. Similarly, second on the list in NSW was mobile phones, which were as far down as eighth in Victoria.
Laptops and notebooks, cash and multimedia tablets rounded out third, fourth and fifth places respectively in both states, making the results similar to data released by Australia's largest general insurer, IAG, last year.
In Victoria, this was followed by digital cameras, jewellery watches, mobile phones, clothes and shoes, and computer accessories.
The RACV received $2.2 million worth of claims related to digital devices.
RACV general manager, home insurance, Stacey Maher said: "Our data shows that in the last financial year there were 2500 consumer electrical items stolen. This data shows that incidents of theft are far more common than many of us like to believe."
The NRMA also received more than 2300 claims in this category.
NRMA Insurance told Fairfax Media: "Our latest claims data shows that thieves are targeting lightweight and portable items, with jewellery items like bracelets, necklaces and rings being the most popular items for burglars. With the growing popularity of digital devices, it's not surprising to see that gadgets like mobile phones, tablets and laptops are also high up the list of the most popular stolen items."
According to the NRMA, the average cost of replacing a stolen gadget is about $5000.
Theft poses a particular concern to consumers at this time of year, given both the likelihood of giving and receiving high-value, new items that are attractive to thieves, and the risk also increases as many people leave their homes to take holidays.
The Victorian Police offer a few tips to protect your home from theft while on holiday, including keeping up appearances by enlisting a house-sitter, pausing your mail or asking someone trusted to collect it, and using timed lights, as well as securing valuables in a safe place within your home.
Some insurers also offer single-item insurance to protect valuable possessions as an alternative to general home and contents insurance. RACV recently launched this, offering coverage for individual laptops, tablets, phones and gaming consoles for as little as $25 a year.
There's also the Trov app, which lets you turn insurance on and off for individual items through an app.

We here at Pop Culture laboratories, an expansive space between the Keurig machine and the dry erase board at Parenting headquarters, are working on a new study about the effects of pants. Through our exhaustive research, we've discovered that there is an 83 (possibly even 84) percent chance that pants will cover your legs. There's also a solid likelihood we will receive a big, fat grant to continue our work in the exciting field of pantsology.
To all the families out there struggling with their finances and trying to find work, here's my suggestion: Hook up with a government agency or a local university's psychology or sociology department. They appear to have more money than they know what to do with. How do I know this? Because we're living in the era of the dumb study. In recent years, we've learned that attractive men have longer ring fingers on their right hands, and couples that participate in "arousing" activities experience greater relationship quality. And the groundbreaking nuggets keep on coming. As I was writing this column, an email arrived in my inbox. Subject heading: "Nearly 50 percent of women avoid intimacy when sick." The other 50 percent think bronchitis is an arousing activity.
Unfortunately, the dumb study also targets dads. In June, Brigham Young University's School of Family Life found that fathers who teach persistence have children with higher engagement in school and lower rates of delinquency. That same month, the Journal of Political Economy published a study stating that a father who shares good advice and instills a solid work ethic contributes to his son's success.
But my favorite is a 2006 study conducted by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services: "Children who have an involved father are more likely to be emotionally secure… and have better social connections with peers." One expert quoted in the study says, "Fathers are more than just 'second adults' at home.'"
Seriously? Like, seriously seriously? More than just second adults at home?
Are we still doing studies connecting smoking to cancer, or carbonated soft drinks to cavities and obesity? When will we accept that fathers help their children with, well, everything? At this point, I wouldn't be surprised to see this run along the CNN news crawl: "New study finds that fathers are kinda a big part of the whole raising-a-miniature-human thing."
The Pop Culture Laboratories has its own finding to share: One hundred percent of dads know what their job is. So next time, tell us something we don't know, like the effect wool hats have on cranial warmth.

One place Kanye West can surely perform freely without drawing the ire of human rights activists: North America.
The rapper will head out on his first solo tour in five years, he announced on Friday.
Aptly billed "The Yeezus Tour" after his latest album -- and because, you know, he's a god -- the seven-week arena tour kicks off Oct. 19 and will hit 23 cities, including a stop at Staples Center on Oct. 26.
TIMELINE: Summer's must see concerts
West will be joined by L.A. breakout emcee Kendrick Lamar, who has spent most of the summer playing his lauded debut album to festival crowds, for most dates.
Tickets for a handful of stops, including Staples, go on sale Sept. 13.
West's latest album, "Yeezus," shot straight to No. 1 when it was released this summer, despite the notoriously outspoken rapper largely turning his back on promoting the album with conventional methods like interviews and radio singles.
The Yeezus Tour is West's first trek since his joint tour with pal and "Watch the Throne" collaborator Jay Z in 2011, and his first solo tour since 2008.

SANAA, Yemen (AP) — Yemeni President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi said Thursday that his country is in an "open war" with al-Qaida as one of the country's largest offensive against the terror group in south has been pushing militants out of their strongholds.
In a statement aired on state television, Hadi said that the military will expand its operations to include areas other than Shabwa and Abyan, the southern provinces which witnessed a strong al-Qaida presence before the offensive. He said it will include others like Baida and Marib, where al-Qaida militants have been retreating to over the past weeks.
Hadi acknowledged that the offensive has sparked "retaliatory attacks" against the capital, Sanaa, adding that the military must "uproot" the terror group wherever its militants are. He said the offensive was triggered by the "very negative economic impact on the country. It is no longer possible to wait in our places until the day comes and they attack us all."
As for the revenge attacks in the capital, he said: "We don't want these assaults to take place again."
His remarks came as the Interior Ministry announced foiled al-Qaida attacks in the capital and the arrests of suspected foreign militants and potential suicide bombers, including some coming from Syria.
It said some of the foiled attacks targeted government buildings and security institutions, along with foreign embassies.
The U.S. considers Yemen's al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula as the world's most dangerous offshoot of the terror group. It is blamed for a number of unsuccessful bomb plots aimed at Americans, including an attempt to bring down a U.S.-bound airliner with explosives hidden in the bomber's underwear and a second plot to send mail bombs hidden in the toner cartridges on planes headed to the U.S.
The U.S. Embassy in Sanaa shut down its premises last week as a precaution against possible retaliatory attacks by militants. On April 24, two officers at the U.S. Embassy getting haircuts at a Sanaa barbershop killed two suspected al-Qaida gunmen. The New York Times has reported that the Americans were a CIA officer and a lieutenant colonel with the elite Joint Special Operations Command.
During Yemen's 2011 uprising against longtime President Ali Abdullah Saleh, al-Qaida exploited the security vacuum in the south and took over large areas. In 2012, the military carried an offensive pushing militants out from some of these areas. The U.S. is backing the Yemen offensive with drone strikes.
Yemen's military continues to battle militants taking shelter inside schools and government buildings in the one-time al-Qaida stronghold of Azzan in Shabwa. The battles came after a day of fierce clashes in the same town forced families to flee.
Late Thursday, Yemen's Defense Ministry announced soldiers killed a top leader of al-Qaida in Azzan identified as Sadek al-Qoubasi. Yemen has claimed to kill top militants in the past who later turned out to be alive and al-Qoubasi was not a familiar name to analysts and security officials.

BRIDGEVIEW, Ill. – D.C. United finished their improbable run to second place in the Eastern Conference, extending their unbeaten streak to seven games after surviving a few desperate moments in a 1-1 tie with the Chicago Fire.
The Fire, meanwhile, blew several chances in the battle for the No. 2 seed and will head to the Knockout Round, hosting Houston at Toyota Park on Wednesday, after winning just one of their last five matches. D.C. will have home-field advantage in a first-round series against New York, a scenario that gives them a week off to prepare for the Red Bulls.
Patrick Nyarko opened the scoring with a world-class cut and blast from distance, and Lionard Pajoy evened matters for United in the second half with a diving header. There were plenty more chances for both sides but neither was able to capitalize.
In the 16th minute, Nyarko gave the Fire the lead when he took two dribbles around midfielder Marcelo Saragosa and drilled an unstoppable shot from outside the penalty area past goalkeeper Bill Hamid.
Sherjill MacDonald had a chance to stretch the lead four minutes later when Chris Rolfe found him for an open shot inside the penalty area, but Hamid made himself big to block the point-blank shot.
Pajoy equaled the score early in the second half, when he connected on a cross from Branko Boskovic. Boskovic, whose service had left something to be desired throughout the match, whipped in a left-footed cross that the forward dove to direct on frame.
MacDonald almost gave the Fire the lead in the 63rd minute when he was open just outside the six yard box, but Hamid once again bested him by saving the Dutchman's effort.
Second-half substitute Dominic Oduro had a wide open chance when MacDOnald found him at the back post with a cross, but he couldn't get his shot on target.
The Fire once again looked like they'd take the lead in stoppage time, when Jalil Anibaba collected a shot off the post inside the box with Hamid out of position, but his shot was blocked by a diving Nick DeLeon.
Alex had one last chance to keep the Fire out of the Knockout Round with a shot from 30 yards, but Hamid leapt high in the air to tip the ball over the goal.
The Fire now find themselves in a position that, just a few weeks ago, seemed improbable when they won seven out of eight games. Meanwhile, D.C. United are 5-0-2 without 2011 MVP Dwayne De Rosario as they get set for their first playoff appearance since 2007.
