Despite Opposition and Concerns, Lee IDA Approves Sale of Lands to GreenUSA – Transmissions
Despite Opposition and Concerns, Lee IDA Approves Sale of Lands to GreenUSA
As I discussed last week, a start-up company called GreenUSA is attempting to build a recycling center in my former home of Lee County, Virginia that is projected to bring as many as two hundred and fifty new jobs to Lee County’s struggling economy. Concerns have been raised by a small yet vocal group of concerned citizens, but according to a Lee County IDA employee with whom I spoke via e-mail, the Lee County IDA has been receiving phone calls in support of the project by a margin of six-to-one. The downside is that getting people motivated enough to come out to town-halls in support of the project has been difficult, and most of those citizens who show up at the meetings do no support the project. After speaking with one of the members of the small opposition movement, again via-email, I now have a better understanding of their concerns. For one thing GreenUSA is a start-up company, and concerns have been raised about the company’s financials. If GreenUSA defaults on their loans, Lee County could be potentially saddled with debt and an incomplete construction project that could be a potential eyesore alongside Highway 58, which runs to the Cumberland Gap National Forest and includes such tourist attractions as the White Rocks Recreational Area and Wilderness Road State Park.
Furthermore, there is a small wetlands in the middle of the industrial site, and some feel that the construction and operations of a recycling center could put wildlife in danger and lead to potential groundwater contamination if not properly handled. The Lee IDA representative assured me that everything that could be done was being done to avoid environmental contamination and catastrophe.
The concerned citizens group, whose website can be viewed here: (http://www.stopgreenusarecycling.com/index.html), also claims that they have attempted to ask questions that have not been answered to their satisfaction by GreenUSA or the Lee County Industrial Development Authority. An open letter with these questions can be found here: http://www.stopgreenusarecycling.com/letter-to-ida.html. The representative from the opposition group that I spoke to said that they would be delighted to welcome GreenUSA to Lee County if they could only get their questions concerning the environmental impact and GreenUSA’s financials answered.
Those concerns withstanding, I sincerely hope that the Lee IDA, Green USA, and the opposition group can work together to make this project a reality. The Lee IDA and Green USA need to take more steps to answer the questions and ease the concerns of the opposition, but at the same time I would hate to see political in-fighting lead to a potential major economic loss to an area of the region that has already been dealt one economic blow too many.
As of the time of this post, the Lee IDA has gone ahead with the sale of the lands to GreenUSA. I’m hoping that this is the right decision, and that all the parties involved can work together to make this project an environmental, as well as economic, success.

I support all initiatives to bring greener jobs to local areas. Unfortunately this is a tough sell, especially with the financial concerns they are raising. Regardless I hope it all works out.

The financial problems, water contamination, and wildlife endangerment are huge issues. If they are confident that they can avoid these then I say go ahead with it. I am all for this idea; like I said in my previous comment, it would benefit this area greatly. It would offer employment and work to create a safer environment, so I don’t really understand why so many people are against it. I hope they will be able to assure that the issues mentioned will be minimal and benefits will be great, get more people onboard with the idea and get it working!

Could possibly bring 200 jobs into the area….that is hard to turn down.. If the ? is the financials …Seems to me they need to make sure they have some people in there with some serious credentials to make sure things run smoothly and it works out in the long run.

relatively new browncoat here: fireflyfans — LiveJournal

relatively new browncoat here
Hello, everyone! I'm new to the community and just thought I'd introduce myself. I've been a fan of Firefly/Serenity for about a year now, but have not until recently had the time to sit down at my computer and converse with other Browncoats. I'd have to say I'm still fairly new to the whole thing, but it's become a huge passion of mine as of late. I've done some fan art (you can find it if you wallow through my deviantart page at http://ryuuenx.deviantart.com/), and am in the process of making a small fan site to help spread the love.
That's pretty much it for me for now, although I do have a couple of questions (forgive me if it's already been discussed at length, I'm still going through old posts)--what's up with Mr. Universe? Was he supposedly a character that should have been introduced during a possible second season of Firefly? I don't own the novelization of Serenity, but I heard in the book it mentions he went to school with Wash, but that some (if not all) fans say it's non-canon. Could anyone give me any insight? Thanks! Stay shiny . . .

fieltnotes: Business Models & Business-IT research: Understanding and defining the value proposition
Posted by Erwin Fielt at 04:52
See also a related post on Anders Sundelin's Business Model Database blog.
30/9/10 03:47
yep the value proposition is the most difficult part of the business model since it is less clear than products.
I define the value proposition as the answer to the question: Which value do you create for whom?
So to define the value proposition you need know who your customer is and what value or utility you create for him/her. But the value proposition is not just for the customers but also for your partners you need in the value process. Why?
Think about Napster. They had a great value proposition for the users but none for the right holders of the music. Therefore they failed.

The Little White House On The Seaside: Looking Up
Cottage Ceiling Series - Part 1
Lately I've been busy, busy. I decided to organise a challenge in English between all my pupils. What was I thinking? It's taking me forever to get everything ready. But it's really nice to see them all excited about it.
Je suis complètement débordée ces derniers temps. J'ai décidé d'organiser un concours d'anglais pour mes élèves ce mois de juin. Mais qu'est-ce qui m'a pris? C'est extrêmement long à préparer!!!
At home, I'm busy calling the insurance company nearly everyday to see what we can do about my floor. It has been damaged by the flood and it's brand new AND I love it, so I want to save it. Also, even if some of you noticed in your sweet comments that I'm very patient, I'm not sure I have it in me to redo the floor one more time!
A la maison, je passe mes moments de "détente" à appeler l'assurance, pour voir ce qu'on peut faire pour sauver mon carrelage qui a malheureusement souffert de l'inondation. Je crois bien que malgré ma patience et mon amour pour ma maison, je n'ai pas le courage de tout le refaire, comme me le conseillent les carreleurs, alors que je suis déjà passée par là il y a deux ans.
So rather than complaining about the floor, I thought we could hope things will look up soon and for now look up at the ceiling with a new series.
Donc, plutôt que de me lamenter tout le mois sur mon carrelage, je vous propose de lever les yeux au plafond pour une petite série sur la décoration des plafonds.
When you buy a little charming fisherman's cottage, you expect to buy some old charming features with it. I had a whole list of things I wanted to find in my house. The Little White House had many good points, but "charming old features" were not in the package.
Quand on achète une vieille maison de pêcheur, on s'attend à y trouver de charmants détails architecturaux. Ben, il ne restait pas grand chose du charme ancien quand j'ai acheté mon petit cottage.
Please admire my Sponge Bob walls...
I mean have you seen the ceiling? Inserting pot lights in a smooth ceiling is all the rage right now in France and the previous owner of the cottage was very proud to show me what he had done.
Granted, bright over head lighting is great to take pictures, but a) I didn't have the blog then and the thought didn't cross my mind - b) it didn't say "fisherman's cottage" to me.
Le plafond venait d'être refait avec des spots dont l'ancien propriétaire était très fier. C'est sûr, les spots donnent une lumière bien pratique pour les photos... Mais je n'ai pas pensé à ça. J'ai juste trouvé que cela manquait de charme. Il fallait agir!
So something had to be done about that ceiling. What? Join me in this new series to know all about it. You may want to browse previous posts if you can't stand the suspens! You can also see what I've done with the little rectangle on the wall that stood where a fireplace used to be in this post.
Je vous propose donc une petite série sur la transformation de mon plafond. Les plus impatients peuvent toujours explorer le blog pour voir des photos du plafond tel qu'il est aujourd'hui.
What would say "cottage ceiling" according to you?
See you soon, for the "tearing the ceiling apart" part!
A bientôt pour des nouvelles de ce qui est caché sous le faux plafond!
I'm sharing my "before" ceiling with:

Suzan Sweatman Tuesday, June 18, 2013 6:30:00 am
We call them pot lights in North America - and I would give anything for a couple of them ( for photography purposes only lol )
Chandeliers are pretty - but their horrible for photos!
Can't wait to see this new " series "

You have me wondering what you will be doing with those ceilings. We have ugly drop ceilings in the dining room and I would love to get rid of them. The rest of the house has nice high ceilings.

Bisous et merci de cette visite.
Louise Tuesday, June 18, 2013 11:06:00 am
I hate recessed lights in traditional environments as well. There are old-style overhead-lights, with visible wiring, for bathrooms and utility rooms, but that particular recessed light must be the worst I have seen. That pattern??? beaded board is the traditional for kitchens, stretched painted paper for the rest.
Anonymous Tuesday, June 18, 2013 11:45:00 am
I'm not sure if recessed lighting goes so well in an old cottage like yours. I love tongue and groove plank ceilings. We just put that in our kitchen, and I want it in every room. Now, I just have to convince my husband that he wants it too! I hope your floor is saved!
Bernideen Tuesday, June 18, 2013 1:28:00 pm
Looks like you have received some good suggestions. I think of some beams going across that are more cottagey.
Kathryn Ross Tuesday, June 18, 2013 1:40:00 pm
Blessings, Magali! So delightful to meet you and what wonders I'm discovering as I visit you and your seaside cottage in France! Isn't the internet amazing - making our world smaller so all the beautiful things abounding might be shared easier. What a project you have ahead of you and I am looking forward to all your vintage touches to come. Joy!
Magali@TheLittleWhiteHouse Wednesday, June 19, 2013 8:30:00 pm
I'm so happy we found each other's blogs! Thanks for visiting back.
Mandi @ Southern Gnome Tuesday, June 18, 2013 3:14:00 pm
I could see either a plank ceiling or one with beams. That says cottage to me. While I LOVE the recessed lighting in my kitchen, it's the ONLY room I would ever want it in. I hate using overhead lights in my other rooms. Well, except maybe my dining room, but if we eat early enough, we don't need to turn any light on since it's pretty bright in there. Especially now that it's been repainted. Good luck with the insurance people.
Athena at Minervas Garden Tuesday, June 18, 2013 5:38:00 pm
I look forward to your new ceiling series, Magali! Maybe something like beadboard that's painted for a cottage ceiling? We once wallpapered a ceiling with a raised wallpaper that looked like tin tiles and could be painted over, which was a less expensive option than some others. I'm sure whatever you pick will be gorgeous!
Butterfly 8)(8 Bungalow Tuesday, June 18, 2013 5:42:00 pm
I'm so sorry about your floor, I hope it can be resolved. Is it structural for example, did water get under and lift it? Or is stained and can it be professionally cleaned?
When I remodeled the kitchen, the electrician put in more lighting, but I wanted no pot lights, because it didn't suit this place.
Well, you have seen many of ours: the kitchen is planked with a faux beam, because a 70s remodel ruined the 40s walls and ceilings. We have original painted, beamed ceilings in many areas. I haven't shown my spouse's "office", because I have not started it, but it has beamed ceilings in an original dark wood. I'll probably leave that color and fix the walls in there, but I need the electrician to do work first. I have original plaster ceilings and walls that have a really nice texture too. We don't have beamed and plastered; that's a nice cottage look too.

wooden panelling says cottage ceiling to me. i agree with you on the lights.

Oooh, a wooden ceiling such as planks would be so gorgeous! Can't wait to see what you end up doing.

I'm the last one to give decorating advice...LOL. But the cottage is adorable...and has alot going for it. I know you can buy all kind of ceiling fixtures & trims to make it whatever your sweet heart wants. I hope your floor is not to damaged. I burned up my kitchen last year. I was in a fog though all the repairs. But I was lucky that my hubby has some taste.
A wonderful post and I hope you get some fantastic idea
My blog mate ...now she knows how to decorate on a budget.I try and send her your way.She is very talented.

What a beautiful array of textures and tones. It will be gorgeous when you are finished. Faux wooden beams across the width would be amazing...or a simple beadboard paneling or wallpaper...or even a painted "pressed tin" ceiling. Anything you do will add character. Can't wait to see what the results are!

I am so glad I found your blog! I am your newest follower. I will be anxious to hear more about your darling cottage. Thanks also for your lovely comment on my blog. Have a great rest of the week!

We have both beams and wood ceilings. That is what feels cottage-y to me. I have seen a post somewhere showing how to add beams and pine ceiling to a drywalled ceiling. I will look for it.

I would say that beadboard ceilings are cottage to me. You have such wonderful spaces to work with. Thank you for visiting me at my blog. I so enjoy seeing the wonderful homes of others and making new friends. Happy Summer! Love, Penny

Oh, yes, I love the idea of beams or planks! I will have some recessed lighting in my new kitchen, but my place isn't a cottage, so hopefully it will look okay! Plus, my current kitchen is so dark that I'm dying to have an abundance of light in my new kitchen! Hope the floors survive!!

I love beams and planks, as we had that in our past country home and are very popular around here. Hope you sabe your floor and can't wait to see more of your lovely and cozy cottage! Thank you for your sweet visit. Now that I'm back home in Cuenca-Ecuador, where the weather is great, with a soft sun and spring weather..thank goodness! Big hugs,

These new requirements, however, may hinder the two banks' ability to compete in the field of investment banking. But that seems to be exactly the Swiss regulators' aim: They want the banks to focus more on less risky private banking. Sponsored Links
Both banks expect to meet the new capital requirements without having to sell new shares. Although UBS has also said it would probably not pay out dividends over the next couple of years. Swiss banks account for nearly 8% of Switzerland's gross domestic product. UBS and Credit Suisse contribute a sizable portion of that, according to The Wall Street Journal. The new requirements, which the government must approve, will be a blueprint for future Swiss banking regulation. Following the financial crisis, many countries attempted to improve financial regulation to avoid another crisis in the future. International efforts were also initiated. In the U.S., the Dodd-Frank Act was passed in July, giving regulators new authority. However, as Yalman Onaran of Bloomberg writes, whether the U.S. implements the Basel changes isn't clear.

software industry - What are the benefits of Receiving an MBA when I already have a Masters in my current field? - The Workplace Stack Exchange
so how would an MBA help me advance my career towards management?
As stated in the FAQ under "What questions are off topic here?": ""How do I learn to be a..." / "How do I perform the job of a ..." Questions should be about problems you are encountering or have encountered in the workplace, and not the learning/applying of specific job functions." We can't make that decision for you here, nor review whether or not it would improve your qualifications... – jmac Apr 12 '13 at 8:30
Are you asking "what are the benefits of receiving an MBA when I have a masters already?" This would be a great question - but specific career advice for your personal situation is off topic (see the FAQ). Feel free to edit if so - I personally have interest in this as well :) – enderland Apr 12 '13 at 14:58
@enderland yes this is what I wanted to ask – zzzzz Apr 15 '13 at 4:50
@enderland You can edit my question,if you feel like you could make it better and more helpfull for the community – zzzzz Aug 13 '13 at 14:14
It likely won't help you enough in getting that first level management job to be worth the money, but it is the ticket to higher management jobs. I say this because most of the first line managers I have worked with don't have an MBA, so it is very possible to break into the lower levels of management without one.
However, since you are not a manager now, I would hold off on spending the money until you get to the first line management job and find out if you really want to spend your career as a manager. I have seen too many people take that first management job and then move back to development because they hate the tasks that come along with management. Better to find this out before you spend more money on a degree you may not need if you decide management isn't for you.
However, once you are first line manager and see it is the career for you, then it will be valuable to get the the really high levels of of management. An experienced manager with development experience and an MBA and a Masters in CS would be very valuable in a CIO position.
The MBA will teach you about the financial and business things you need to know to move up the management chain.

Great points. Never thought of that from that perspective. – chrisjlee Jan 25 '14 at 4:15
An MBA could actually cost you employment opportunities. While the following sounds negative, the point is that there are people in senior management that have been burned by MBAs or MBA teams. There is a feeling, for instance, that the .COM bust was largely caused when the east coast MBAs started showing up in Silicon Valley, and the techs were replaced by 'money people'. One can trace a string of business disasters to MBAs that were long on doctrine and short on common sense. A lot of employers look particularly critically at MBAs, in part because some emphasize their school or contacts rather than their experience. At the very least, talk to people that have seen the bad actors at work, and learn in advance what not to do.

Anyone that would look down on somebody that not only understands how to write software but also how to market software and get people to buy said software is somebody I refuse to work for. I could write the best software that exists on the planet, but if I cannot sell a single copy, then I cannot make money from it. Anyone can give away software for free, everyone likes free stuff, there is a reason very few people actually decline those free food samples at the food court. – Donald Aug 5 '13 at 14:38
In theory an MBA will teach you to understand why a customer buys a product and how to market your product to a customer and how to actually get them to purchase that product. You already know how to make the product in theory, your undergraduate and graduate degree provided you that knowlege.
There are other skills an MBA can provide you depending on your background. If you already know accounting and economics for example then you already have those skills.
I don't know whether an MBA is better for you than any other degree or training. You have to consider the cost/benefit. Maybe it would be more beneficial to start with a certificate program rather then a full degree.
Any experience or additional education is good for you. Even doing something not related to your field is good for you. It shows that you're interested in learning more, and not just satisfied with coasting on what you learned in four years of college for the rest of your life.
The reason Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates and Steve Jobs could get away without the stamp of approval of formal training is that they are very self driven, and extraordinary people. They're rock stars in their fields. However, most people are just backup singers, and they need to do something extra to even get the gig.
I wouldn't hire anyone who has spent ten years in their field, and not demonstrated an interest in learning more. Instead, they've demonstrated an unwillingness to learn new things or adopt new things. My experience has taught me that such people are not able to adapt to change, they are a frustrating lot to work with, and they hold back the employees who do adapt to change.
Also, as you get older, it is important to have more education. Better to do it now than wait until you are in your 40s or 50s, and trying to pay a mortgage, and take care of children. I have friends in their 40s who have discovered that they need to go to graduate school just to be employable in their company, and it is very hard to do that at that stage of life.
This does not address the question of what benefits there would be for an MBA. There may be room for your alternative suggestions in that answer but they do not qualify as an acceptable answer by themselves. – IDrinkandIKnowThings Apr 16 '13 at 13:39
@Chad - You got me. The answer to the question is "It depends." – Xenson Apr 16 '13 at 21:54
I am fairly sure there are ways that "Anyone" could leverage an MBA to advance their career. This question is about the potential in general. – IDrinkandIKnowThings Apr 17 '13 at 12:37

Genetic Studies of Genius | Psychology Wiki | Fandom powered by Wikia
Share	The Genetic Studies of Genius, today known as the Terman Study of the Gifted,[1] is a still-running longitudinal study begun in 1921 to examine the development and characteristics of gifted children into adulthood. The study was started by Lewis Terman at Stanford University and is now the oldest and longest running longitudinal study in the world.[2][3]
The results from the study have been published in five books,[4][5][6][7][8] a monograph, and dozens of articles. A related retrospective study of eminent men in history by Catharine Cox, though unrelated to the longitudinal study, was published as part of the Genetic Studies of Genius.[9]
Terman had previously performed studies in intelligence, including his doctorate dissertation.[10] In 1916, he adapted Alfred Binet's intelligence test for the United States and expanded its range. The result was the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scales, which are still in use today (in an updated form). After his service in developing the Army Alpha during World War I, Terman returned to Stanford in order to start his study.
Terman hired several assistants, including Florence Goodenough and Catharine Cox, to search the public schools of California for gifted children. Terman initially hoped to find the 1,000 most intelligent children,[11] but eventually found 1,444[12]. However, Terman gradually added subjects to the study through 1928 until there were 1,528 (856 males and 672 females).[13] Not all subjects were discovered with the Stanford-Binet. Some were selected for the study with the National Intelligence Tests and the Army Alpha. The study subjects were born between 1900 and 1925, all lived in California, were about 90% white, and the majority came from upper- or middle-class families.[14]
Terman's goal was to disprove the then-current belief that gifted children were sickly, socially inept, and not well-rounded. Therefore, the first volume of the study reported data on the children's family,[15] educational progress[16], special abilities,[17], interests,[18], play,[19] and personality.[20] He also examined the children's racial and ethnic heritage.[21] Terman was a proponent of eugenics, although not as radical as many of his contemporary social Darwinists, and believed that intelligence testing could be used as a positive tool to shape society.[22]
Based on data collected in 1921-22, Terman concluded that gifted children suffered no more health problems than normal for their age, save a little more myopia than average. He also found that the children were usually social, were well-adjusted, did better in school, and were even taller than average.[23] A follow-up performed in 1923-1924 found that the children had maintained their high IQs and were still an overall blessed group.
Terman planned later follow-ups, and in his lifetime data would be collected in 1928, 1936, 1940, 1945, 1950, and 1955. At his death, the study was directed by Melita Oden, who collected additional data in 1960. Robert Richardson Sears later took charge of the study and collected data in 1972, 1977, 1982, and 1986.[24] Moreover, many study participants corresponded with Terman or visited Stanford University in order to keep him updated on their lives.[25] According to those who have access to the study archives, the files also include news articles, letters, and other documents related to the study participants.[26] The later follow-ups asked questions about war service, college education, marital status and happiness, work, retirement, raising children, and other lifetime events and concerns.[27]
The study has been criticized for not having a generalizable sample.[28] Moreover, Terman meddled in his subject's lives, giving them letters of recommendation for jobs and college and pulling strings at Stanford to help them get admitted.[29] This makes any life outcomes of the sample tainted and ungeneralizable. The study also has all the weaknesses of any longitudinal study: it is possible that the characteristics and behaviors of the sample are a partial result of the era they lived in. Indeed, many members of the sample couldn't attend college, due to the Great Depression and World War II.[30] Almost half of women in the sample were homemakers for most of their lives.[31] Despite these shortcomings, the data from the sample is often used for studies because there is no other group of people who have been followed for so long.
Of course, as time has passed, the sample has dwindled. As of 2003, there were over 200 members of the sample still alive.[32] The study is to continue until the final member of the sample either withdraws or dies.[33]

Sarah and Things: Cleanser and Exfoliator
© 2010-2013 SarahAndThings.com unless otherwise noted. Powered by Blogger.
I always follow back on GFC =)
I loved the Green Tea Cleanser from St. Ives (can't get enough of the clean scent) but it's making my face really dry lately. Maybe part of it is because I'm pregnant and this baby is stealing all the moisture from my body (heh!).
Anyway, I went back to using YSL's Natural Action Exfoliator to help with the dry patches on my skin. I love this product. It's like magic. You put it on your dry face and just swirl around with your fingers and the heat will help liquify the product. And it smells super amazing!!
I got the sample sized version on ebay and I don't know for sure if it's authentic or not, but it smells and feels exactly the same. A full size costs $44 and the only reason I first got one was because the Nordstrom ladies grabbed me to do a makeover with their guest makeup artist and you know, I just kind of got sucked into their marketing skills. LOL! But I think it was worth it since I went back for another tube =).

Frontloading HQ: Primary Results from the Sunshine State
Dave Damore
So the question I have is who is the genius advising Giuliani? If you are going to stake your entire campaign on a single state, you should be sure that you are going to win it.
And a good question it is. History (at least recent history) tells us that skipping early events isn't a winning strategy. Gore's 1988 strategy came the closest to working. Ir could be argued that that was more a function of the Southern Super Tuesday that year When does skipping work? When everyone cedes victory to one candidate. See Harkin in Iowa in 1992. McCain made it interesting as the alternative to Bush in 2000 after skipping Iowa. Skipping Iowa is one thing, but skipping the first six contests is quite another.What hurt Giuliani most was the string of fifth and sixth place finishes in the early states. I know he didn't compete but still, you'd have to hope that name recognition gets you a little higher. His New Hampshire strategy was curious. He was somewhat competitive in the polls there in the fall, but his effort to infuse his campaign there with some cash was too little too late. Thanks for stopping by Dave.
Two things did in Rudy. First the Biden statement about him being nothing but 911. He never found his voice after that. Also, he seemed to lose interest in the race after his mysterious illness in Nebraska. When the campaign is chronicled we will hear more about that illness.Obama came within about 17%, not the 15% that he needed to meet Josh's standard, but close enough to blunt claims by the Clinton campaign. Of the Democrats who decided in the last week the break was 35% Obama, 35% Clinton and 25% Edwards. It will be interesting to see if the Clinton win in Florida or the movement toward a tie in support in recent days will be the more significant effect going in to Tsunami Tuesday.One last note, the idea that Florida Democrats flocked to the polls when nothing was at stake is a misstatement. There were two very critical ballot initiatives -- one on proerty taxes and one on hurricane relief. I received an email urging me to vote Yes on Initiative 1. There was plenty of incentive for Florida Democrats to vote in addition to the Presidential contest.
That's a great point, Rob. Labor was really activated to get out to the polls on that initiative. I guess I read too much from Howard Wolfson yesterday. Ah, the Clinton spin. It got me. I was interested in how the media was going to play the Florida contest on the Democratic side and I remain curious as to how the results will be played between now and next Tuesday.My suggestion is that we all start counting delegates because that'll be what the four remaining (viable) campaigns will be doing next Tuesday night.
On Giuliani's strategy ... while he was bucking against history, this whole primary season has little historical precedence. Never have we seen the caucuses and primaries so early and so condenced. If someone was going to try the ahistorical approach, skipping the early voters, this was the year for it. That being said, the Giuliani campaign simply did a miserable job of it. I agree with Rob that he lost his voice and his message. And the last moment attempt to be the alternative to bickering Romney and McCain appeared just as it was, pathetic. Now with Edwards leaving the race, where does his support go? In tight races, it can mean the difference between victory and defeat.
Thanks, Rich, I learned form you about Edwards. Boy am I out of date! I agree that Rudy could have made something out of Florida. The problem was with the candidate and the campaign and not the overall strategy. Also, think what the race would be like if Huckabee had won in SC.
Rich,I can buy the bucking history angle generally, but Giuliani's campaign has been trending downward for a while now. Everything played the right way for that strategy to work, but Giuliani's slide had more of say in the matter. He didn't (or couldn't) hold up his end of the bargain.

Google Settles Suit Over Book-Scanning
By MIGUEL HELFT and MOTOKO RICH OCT. 28, 2008
SAN FRANCISCO — Settling a legal battle, Google reached an agreement with book publishers and authors that clears the way for both sides to more easily profit from digital versions of printed books.
Since 2004, Google has been working with university and research libraries to create digital scans of their collections. Of the approximately seven million books that Google has already scanned, four million to five million are out of print.
Google now makes the content of those books available in its book search service but shows only snippets of text, unless it has permission from the copyright holder to show more.
Under the agreement, Google will now show up to 20 percent of the text at no charge to users. It will also make the entire book available online for a fee. Universities, libraries and other organizations will be able to buy subscriptions that make entire collections of those books available to their visitors.
“This huge body of books that were effectively lost to the marketplace are being rescued,” said James Gleick, the author of five books and a member of the board of the Authors Guild, one of the plaintiffs in the suit.
Google plans to take 37 percent of the revenue, leaving 63 percent for publishers and authors. If Google sells ads on pages where previews of scanned books appear, it will split the revenue on the same basis.
The settlement being paid by Google will go in part to establish a digital book registry that will administer the new system. The money will also be used to resolve existing claims by authors and publishers and cover legal fees. At least $45 million is being designated to compensate authors and publishers whose books were scanned by Google before the settlement.
“We as publishers are encouraging the widest possible digital discovery for books, while ensuring the best possible commercial prospects for those books across both print and electronic markets,” said Richard Sarnoff, chairman of the Association of American Publishers, at a press conference Tuesday morning.
Some authors and publishers hailed the agreement, saying it finally recognized their right to be compensated for their works and to control their distribution.
“It really says that individual authors can still survive in the Internet age and are not going to get dropped off the cliff,” said Paul Dickson, author of 50 books and one of the named plaintiffs in the Authors Guild suit.
But some librarians and legal experts worried that the deal would give Google too much control over books and other materials that are the backbone of the nation’s library system.
“On the one hand, one admires all of Google’s inventions,” said Rick Prelinger, board president of the Internet Archive, a nonprofit organization that has scanned and made available online one million public domain books. “But when you start to see a single point of access developing for world culture, by default, it is disturbing.”
The settlement of the lawsuits, which were filed in 2005, did not resolve the question of whether Google’s unauthorized scanning of copyrighted books was permissible under copyright law.
Still, publishers were claiming victory, noting that under the settlement, publishers and authors must give permission for snippets of their in-print books to be included in Google’s search program. Google had argued that under the “fair use” doctrine of copyright law, it did not need such permission.
Ms. Reidy added that she did not view the settlement merely as a victory for publishers and authors, but also as an opportunity, enabled by Google. “Not only did we win our point, we also did so while enabling Google to move forward in creating opportunities for authors in the future,” she said.
Google said its decision to no longer show snippets for in-print books without permission was made simply to secure the settlement.

python - matplotlib; fractional powers of ten; scientific notation - Stack Overflow
2 I deal with simulation data and have been using matplotlib a lot lately and have been encountering something (a bug?) that's annoying. I have been allowing matplotlib to automatically set the tick labels and their type (scientific, etc) and with some data I get weird scientific ticker labels. In searching for a resolution to this I found that you can call set_powerlimits((n,m)) to set the the limits of data that will be displayed using scientific notation. But I have encountered this problem (if I remember correctly) with data spanning several orders of magnitude, also my data is all over the place so I need a programmatic solution of some sort, not a hard set solution. see: http://matplotlib.org/api/ticker_api.html
Below I have included example data, code, and a screenshot. #! /usr/bin/env python

Er, what's wrong with a logarithmic axis?
+1 for log scale or even just linearly rescale the data by yourself.
Also instead of looping over data and splitting it into two lists you can use the zip function. times, vals = zip(*data)
– Mr. Squig
You might try using the Engineering Formatter:
share|improve this answer edited Oct 17 '12 at 15:43
I didn't know about the EngFormatter, nice trick, athough in this case is not a goot choice. As you can see, in the y-axis, there are 6 ticks labeled as 32.7 mS.
You're right Pablo, I just edited the post and updated the places parameter to improve that.
This is a known problem. You'd be better to analyse the data manually for its limits, like you have done in the screen shot, and use ax.set_ylim(min, max) yourself after plotting. You can also turn off the offset with:
# plot some stuff
y_formatter = mticker.ScalarFormatter(useOffset=False)
I think that you best option is to use logaritmic axis, but if you need to create the graphic with linear axis, you must set the power limits yourself. You can compute the power limits using math.log10:
# Compute the span of the data
pow_min = math.floor(math.log10(min(vals)))
pow_max = math.ceil(math.log10(max(vals)))
# Create a scalar formatter without offset, in order to have
# the right exponent over the yaxis
fmt = ticker.ScalarFormatter(useOffset=False)
fmt.set_powerlimits((pow_min, pow_max))
ax1.plot(times, vals)
ax1.yaxis.set_major_formatter(fmt)  # Set the formatter

javascript - Alternative Ways To Write XHR Synchronous Behavior - Stack Overflow
I recently heard we are not suppose to using Synchronous behavior when using XHR. In my case I need Synchronous behavior. What is the best way to rewrite my calls to my services Synchronously instead of how I am doing it now. No jquery please ..
xhReq.open("POST", "ClientService.svc/REST/TestHtmlSend", false);
var serverResponse = JSON.parse(xhReq.responseText);

Can you give some more background? I'm not clear on the question you're asking. The third parameter in the xhr open function tells the request to load in sync or async mode.
@Joel: This was prompted by my answer to this question, where I pointed out that using synchronous XHR is a bad idea. He's asking how to rewrite his code to be asynchronous.
You never need "synchronous behavior"; instead, you (the developer) just have to wrap your head around JavaScript's asynchronous nature – specifically, how to use anonymous callbacks and deal with closures.
For example, if you're doing this:
function doSomething(arg) {
var number = arg + 10; // for example
var data = getDetail();
element.innerHTML = number + ': ' + data.name;
function getDetail() {
xhReq.open("POST", "ClientService.svc/REST/GetDetail", false); // bad!
It could be written asynchronously:
var number = arg + 10;
Notice in the asynchronous example that your inner callback function (which executes only after the network request has completed) still has access to the outer function's number variable. This is because JavaScript has static scope – in other words, when you declare a function, that function will permanently have access to the variables of any functions that enclose that function.
