HOOK AND FUR
By Bob Brown
Twenty-five years ago, women who enjoyed traditional outdoor sports like hunting, fishing and shooting were considered novelties .Today, seeing women in hunting and fishing camps, on shooting ranges or participating in shooting competitions is commonplace and welcomed with open arms.
According to a recent national survey conducted by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, there has been a steady decline of hunters nationwide since 1991. To make up for the loss of revenue because of decreased license sales and Pittman-Robertson funds, many fish and wildlife agencies, including our own Wasthingon Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW), have initiated programs to introduce women to hunting, fishing and other outdoor sports. And the effort appears to be showing signs of success. Nearly 1.5 million women hunt, and triple that number fish yearly in the United States.
A basic workshop on fishing, hunting and other outdoor skills, coordinated by the Washington Outdoor Women (WOW) and WDFW is scheduled for Sept. 14-16 at Camp River Ranch in Carnation. Twenty classes will be offered throughout the weekend on archery, freshwater fishing, fly fishing and tying, kayaking and big-game hunting. The annual workshop is in its 15th year and is an outreach program of the Washington Wildlife Federation. Several WDFW staff members will serve as volunteer instructors for the event. Biologist Shelly Ament will teach wildlife identification, while biologists Laura Till and Susan Cierebiej will teach map and compass skills. In all, 32 instructors will volunteer their time and expertise to help women reconnect with the outdoors.
Participants must be at least18 years old andhave a current Washington recreational license to participate in the fishing sessions. For information, including registration fees, contact Ronni McGlenn at (425) 425-1986 o Till at (360) 902-2352.
Sylvia Payne, director of Alabama’s Becoming an Outdoors Women program, said, “If you teach a man to hunt and fish, he goes hunting and fishing. If you teach a woman to hunt and fish, the entire family goes hunting and fishing. Bringing women into those sports helps us reach many more people. Children who are brought up hunting and fishing will likely pursue those activities for their entire lives. Both are healthy and rewarding activities.”
Dispute over sea lions ending?
It looks like there might be an end to the challenge by the Humane Society of the United States to curtail the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Fisheries Service’s authorization to kill California sea lions that prey on salmon below the Columbia River’s Bonneville Dam. The U.S. House of Representatives recently passed a measure allowing lethal removal. The measure, authored by Rep. Doc Hastings of Washington, the chairman of the House Natural Resources Committee, was included in the Conservation and Economic Growth Act (HR 2578).
The bill, which will move to the Senate for consideration, allows Washington, Oregon, Idaho and four Columbia River treaty tribes to obtain one-year permits from the federal government for the lethal removal of a limited number of sea lions preying on salmon, steelhead and other fish in the main stem Columbia and its tributaries. According to media reports, multiple California and Steller sea lions, most with gunshot wounds, have been discovered on beaches in southern Washington, northern Oregon and near the mouth of the Columbia River. The Humane Society and the Humane Society Wildlife Land Trust have announced they will pay a reward of $2,500 for information leading to the identification, arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for the illegal shooting.

Hard-pressed, we could highlight a hundred important stories that have captured our attention this year.
However, just a handful have been momentous enough to highlight here. In no particular order, here are the stories that defined the year in technology.
Of course, at tech-52, ours is just one viewpoint. We’d love to read your perspectives in the comments section. What were your watershed moments in technology in 2014?
Sure, we suspected that our online privacy was compromised, but the magnitude of NSA data collection (emails, phone calls, and texts) was breathtaking, and continues to be a bit surreal.
Except that it’s real. The genie is very much out of the bottle and it’s not going back in.
Our curiously ineffective Congress, with an approval rating in the single digits, made sure of that when they declined to pass any legislation reining in the NSA in 2014, despite several opportunities.
Speaking of which, if there’s an even darker side to the privacy coin, it’s hacking. From script kiddies to organized crime to state-sponsored military-grade hackers, both the quantity and quality of hacks grew dramatically in 2014.
From Target to Home Depot to Sony, the security breaches continue to come fast and furious. What they underscore is that no government, corporation, or individual is safe. If someone wants to get at your data badly enough, they will figure out a way to do it.
We’ve talked about ways to protect yourself (see here and here), but the most important thing is to remain vigilant. Check your online accounts frequently for signs of inappropriate activity. Change your passwords frequently. If the website offers two-factor authentication, activate it.
And never grow complacent. Stories of identity theft have become legend, but that’s simply not a situation you want to be in.
A few memorable corporate moments in 2014
Tim Cook comes out. Tim Cook is the chief executive officer—the head honcho—of the richest corporation in the world, Apple Computer. He also chose to come out as gay this year, realizing the importance that his example would set for others.
“”Let me be clear: I’m proud to be gay, and I consider being gay among the greatest gifts God has given me,” Cook wrote in a column in Bloomberg Businessweek.
IBM and Apple unite. And speaking of Apple, in July, the company announced that it would be forging a partnership with a long-time competitor, IBM. The two companies would “transform enterprise mobility through a new class of business apps—bringing IBM’s big data and analytics capabilities to iPhone and iPad.”
Ordinarily, the partnership might not seem like such a big deal, but it is interesting in the sense that Apple and Steve Jobs cut their teeth on demonizing IBM back in the day.
Said Jobs in 1985: “If for some reason, we make some giant mistakes and IBM wins, my personal feeling is that we are going to enter sort of a computer Dark Ages for about 20 years. Once IBM gains control of a market sector, they almost always stop innovation. They prevent innovation from happening.”
Clearly, Tim Cook takes a different view.
HP divides. Next to Apple, perhaps one of the most venerable technology companies is Hewlett-Packard.
Over the last decade, however, HP has struggled. The company has gone through multiple leaders, endured scandals, failing business units and revenue, and other challenges.
In October of this year, HP’s current CEO, Meg Whitman, announced that the company would be splitting into two companies: HP, Inc. (formerly its printing and PC businesses) and Hewlett-Packard Enterprise.
Explaining the rationale, Whitman said: “The decision to separate into two market-leading companies underscores our commitment to the turnaround plan. It will provide each new company with the independence, focus, financial resources, and flexibility they need to adapt quickly to market and customer dynamics.”
The debate about net neutrality heated up in 2014, and continues to be one for the ages. If net neutrality is somehow compromised, bold new ideas from economically-challenged start-ups and inventors could wither and die on the vine.
I believe so strongly in net neutrality, that I wrote an open letter to the FCC in support of it. I was not alone, as the FCC to date has received over 3 million letters, the vast majority of which support net neutrality.
The web has generated trillions of dollars of economic value, transformed education and healthcare and activated many new movements for democracy around the world. And we’re just getting started…How has this happened? By design, the underlying Internet and the WWW are non-hierarchical, decentralized and radically open. The web can be made to work with any type of information, on any device, with any software, in any language. You can link to any piece of information. You don’t need to ask for permission. What you create is limited only by your imagination…Key decisions on the governance and future of the Internet are looming, and it’s vital for all of us to speak up for the web’s future…Will we allow others to package and restrict our online experience, or will we protect the magic of the open web and the power it gives us to say, discover, and create anything…On the 25th birthday of the web, I ask you to join in—to help us imagine and build the future standards for the web, and to press for every country to develop a digital bill of rights to advance a free and open web for everyone…Learn more at webat25.org and speak up for the sort of web we really want with #web25.
I’m with you, Tim.
The third platform
In a post earlier this year, I wrote about the emergence of a new paradigm in computing, the third platform. Why is it important? As I wrote earlier, because “it could change virtually every facet of our lives when dealing with the outside world.”
Platforms refer both to computing platforms and the eras they create. If the first platform was mainframe computing, and the second platform personal computing, what is the third platform?
It as been referred to as many things: social, big data, the cloud, mobile. But it really is all those things and more, and the new era it creates is unfolding around us at an accelerating rate.
For better or worse, industry and governments are embracing the new paradigm and moving toward the third platform as the basis on which all business and personal transactions with the outside world will occur. Certainly the popularity of smartphones and other Internet-connected mobile devices have driven, and will accelerate, this process.
As I stated in my January 26 blog post:
Implemented correctly, the ubiquity of information could lead to a more democratic planet, to medical and technological advances coming from all corners of the world, to better informed and better educated, healthier and happier people. We’ll be citizens of Earth, not just our individual countries…Implemented incorrectly, there could be enormous downsides, governmental oppression, dwindling freedoms, and a world of other unforeseen problems that affect us at an individual, national, and international level.

Streaming TV and the demise of cable
Previously, we imagined a three- to five-year period in which cable subscriptions would decline to the point where the business would no longer be sustainable.
However, recent developments make it look more like a one- to two-year window.
We have had alternatives from Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu Plus for sometime now. Lately, however, CBS has joined the streaming media cavalcade, and next year, we’ll have HBO and Showtime.
When live sports become available for streaming, that will be the final nail.

Over the course of his more than twenty singles for Force Inc, the prime German label for forward-looking techno, Ian Pooley has been inspired by the minimalist sound of Detroit as well as deep house. Born in Mainz, Germany, Pooley began collecting records and DJing at the age of 12 and had become firmly entrenched in the classic Detroit sound of Derrick May and Juan Atkins while still a teenager. Along with his long-time friend DJ Tonka, Pooley began recording as T'N'I with the Low Mass EP, just the second release on Force Inc. The label was just beginning to gain a reputation as one of the premiere Continental venues for futuristic techno, with releases by Love Inc., Alec Empire and Biochip C. DJ Tonka and Pooley recorded an EP with Alec Empire, plus several additional singles as Space Cube, but then separated.

I can't figure out why the led lights don't come on automatically. I have looked in settings on uconnect screen but it doesn't give option to have them come on when car is in gear...can someone let me know how to set...thanks
Getty, the premium light package I think is what came to mind. If you have factory hid headlights I think you get the automatic DRL's. My car has halogen headlights. My led parking lights are much dimmer than the hid/LED drl option. Iirc the premium lighting package has led light bars with more and/or brighter leds in them.
From another thread. You will find many threads on front lighting through-out the forums.
Headlamps - 200 LX, Limited, S, and 200C models are equipped with halogen 76-millimeter projector beam headlamps for outstanding forward- and spread-light performance. When equipped with a bi-functional (high/low beam capability in a single lamp) high-intensity discharge (HID) xenon lighting system (optional on 200S and 200C) the 70-millimeter projector beams are incorporated, increase spread light by 5-percent and delivers an improvement in forward lighting.An electric motor and mechanism internal to the HID lamp unit closes a shutter for low beams and opens the shutter for high beams. The HID front lamp units each include an electronic ballast module, while an Automatic Headlamp Leveling Module (AHLM) that serves both front lamp units levelling motor. Both headlamp systems also include an adjustable reflector and clear lens integral to each front lamp unit. Halogen infrared bulbs (HIR) are standard-equipped on all models. The bulbs incorporate a special coating that makes them burn hotter within the bulb chamber, and in turn, provides wider spread light and higher output than traditional halogen bulbs.

At his recent Book Court appearance, Leonard shared more details about what he had learned about Madeleine while putting together the book.
At one point, I asked Leonard what he thought made A Wrinkle in Time such a compelling read. He responded by speaking to one of the relatable themes of the book - the quest for a distant parent. He also mentioned that readers could identify with the highly idiosyncratic family of Meg, the main character.
Here are some other "take-aways" from his talk:
- Madeleine (who would have been 94 tomorrow) passed away in 2007.
- She had traveled through many countries and met many of her readers. As Leonard said "She was an author who made house calls" who "changed the lives of millions of readers."
- Listening is a compilation of Marcus's efforts to engage a number of people who knew Madeleine best and who were aware of the contradictions of her life. His wish is to present a kaleidoscope view of her so that readers may draw their own conclusions.
- Madeleine was born in New York City in the 1920s, and was born into a wealthy family.
- Her parents weren't around a lot to raise her; she had a nanny and was sent to boarding schools. Madeleine filled the emotional void by journaling and reading.
- Her parents, hence Madeleine, were part of a world where "culture was of paramount importance."
- Madeleine, a tall woman, performed for a time on the Broadway stage.
- She started publishing novels in her early 20s.
- A Wrinkle in Time, rejected by many publishers, was a hot potato because of its references to Christianity.
- A Wrinkle was her 7th book (she wrote 60!), and won a Newbery Award. She was unwilling to acknowledge that it was a book for children.
- The book was a combination of fantasy, realism, religion, and science fiction.
- For 10 years, Madeleine lived in exhile with her husband.
- For more than 30 years, she was the librarian at the Cathedral of Saint John the Divine. People would come to her there to get advice on manuscripts. When not giving advice, she would work on her next book.

With more than 70 billion DKK to be invested in new transport links to and from Lolland-Falster, there is an array of changes underway in the municipality of Guldborgsund. The construction of a new bridge between Falster and Zealand will commence next year, the railway to Copenhagen is being electrified, and, most remarkably, the Danish and German governments are due to approve the Fehmarnbelt, an 18-kilometre-long immersed tunnel connecting Lolland in Denmark with Fehmarn in Germany. This means that, by 2020, Guldborgsund could be the best place to run a business in Greater Copenhagen.

I'm currently on a Computer Games Design course, and for the past 12 weeks we had been tasked with creating a compilation video consisting of an animation we did each week, starting with pencil and paper, then quickly moving onto Flash!
At the very beginning, we had to design a character that we would use for said animations, and I came up with this rather dapper chap called 'Jack'!
And of course a huge thanks to Tom Fulp for helping me with the upload!

It's Memorial Day Weekend, and that means sales on meat! I got a 6 pound Boston Butt from Big Star for $1.28 per pound! Not bad! Loaded it into the crock this morning and added the remains of the nearly flat Dr. Pepper bottle (about 12 oz) and let it cook on low all day.
For the sauce, I whipped up a vinegar based sauce (our fave).
1 cup cider vinegar
1 tablespoon salt
3 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon reshampati chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon onion salt
pinch garlic powder
The results--amazing! The pork was so nice and tender from cooking all day. And, of course, I loved having tons of leftovers! Allen separated them into quart bags for later. I can see all kinds of tasty things coming from this pork. If my freezer wasn't so full of wedding stuff, I'd go buy another roast to keep on hand! It sure was tasty!

When it comes to fixing your iPhone screen, there are no longer mysteries. After weeks of defiance, Apple has changed its mind and will no longer prevent Face ID in the event of unauthorized repair. The iPhone 13 has a component that made third-party repairers shudder. Apple had a chip installed in the Face ID module to detect fraudulent screen repairs. What is the repercussion? Face ID was utterly disabled, forcing the user to enter the unlock code. The official repair technique necessitates using a specific tool that connects to Apple’s database, making the process time-consuming and difficult for any non-Apple-authorized repairer.
Independent repairers, whose revenue is mainly based on iPhone screen repairs, have found these challenges overwhelming. Faced with mounting pressure, Apple decided to conduct a review of its copy. According to our colleagues at The Verge, Apple has stated that a fix for the bug is on the way for iOS. It will no longer be essential to transfer the chip that prevents Face ID from working, thereby allowing third-party repairers to resume their work in peace.
The announcement came as a massive relief to the industry’s participants, who had lost a significant portion of their revenue due to the policy. This is fantastic news for both them and their customers.

Sununu challenged on late-term abortion ban for New Hampshire, 'it is not my bill' Sununu lashed out against the medical community for opposing his abortion ban, bizarrely implying that doctors are “screaming” about it, and then Sununu falsely claimed that the abortion ban is similar to others on the books in Massachusetts. Unlike Massachusetts, Sununu’s abortion ban includes no exceptions for a fatal fetal anomaly and would force women to carry a pregnancy that she knows cannot survive. Sununu also claimed he had no power over the budget — even though he vetoed a previous budget and just yesterday successfully got Republicans to remove a budget provision limiting the Governor's powers in an emergency.

Happy Autumn, everyone! I’ve been waiting all year and it has finally arrived! The leaves are *just* starting to turn, the evenings are crisp, and the hot chocolate cravings have begun… pure magic.

Connecticut Light and Power says only around 140 homes remain without power after Friday’s storm. In all the utility has restored power to almost 70,000 homes, most of them in the Southeast of the state. WNPR’s Harriet Jones reports from Stonington.
Sunday afternoon, a utility crew raises a bucket truck under wires running along Pequot Trail in Pawcatuck. According to CL&P’s Bill Quinlan, crews like these worked literally around the clock this weekend.
Connecticut residents will have to start paying sales tax on purchases from Amazon.com later this year. As WNPR’s Harriet Jones reports, the web giant has plans to site a distribution facility in the state.
This Friday, wannabe entrepreneurs will gather at UConn for the second annual Startup Weekend Storrs. It’s a 54 hour marathon which aims to develop and launch new companies into the real world. But does it work? -- and does that matter? WNPR’s Harriet Jones reports.
It’s been a little over a year since Governor Dannel Malloy announced Startup Connecticut - an effort to support entrepreneurship in the state. The idea is to create an “innovation ecosystem” to grow the economy. The state is setting up four innovation hubs.
The state unemployment rate dropped for the second month in a row in December. But the numbers have been volatile with intermittent highs and lows that sometimes don’t seem to add up. WNPR’s Sujata Srinivasan takes a look at why short-term figures may not always show the long-term picture.
Advocates who work with domestic violence victims in Connecticut say many times the workplace can be a key to stopping abuse and saving lives. And they say many of the state’s employers could be doing a whole lot more to help.
The law firm of O’Brien Tanski and Young is located right in downtown Hartford.
“We used to be a very open law firm. We didn’t lock the door and people came and went without thinking.”
Economists and policymakershave been shaking their heads at the lackluster job growth in the aftermath of the Great Recession. But economic downturns are nothing new. With ingenuity, the state has bounced back through some very tough times in the past. WNPR’s Sujata Srinivasan takes a look at the nature of the recovery from an historical perspective.
The poet P.B. Shelly said: “History is a cyclic poem.” That may well hold true for the land of steady habits, which – since Colonial times – has reinvented its economy repeatedly to meet the needs of the day.
The Danbury-based FuelCell Energy Inc. recently announced plans to go forward with construction in nearby Bridgeport, Conn. of what will be North America's largest fuel cell.
Covering a space less than two acres, the plant will produce 15 megawatts of electricity from natural gas provided by the Connecticut utility company United Illuminating. The electricity, which will be enough to power 15,000 homes, will then be sold to Connecticut Light & Power.
The fiscal cliff could have had serious consequences for Connecticut’s defense industry. Across the board spending cuts were projected to threaten thousands of jobs in the state. And industry experts say last week’s deal didn’t change a whole lot. WNPR’s Harriet Jones reports.
Turning away from the fiscal cliff, says Pratt & Whitney’s Jay DeFrank was necessary, but the fix produced last week really fixes nothing.
Microfinance – or small-scale loans – has rapidly grown into an international business that connects investors with impoverished borrowers around the world. Currently, microfinance institutions (MFIs) operate in over 100 countries and fund more than 92 million borrowers, according to the Microfinance Information Exchange. For-profit firms like Stamford-based Developing World Markets (DWM) invest in MFIs in India, which in turn provide loans to poor entrepreneurs, primarily women.
Legislators appear to have stepped away for the minute from significant changes to tax advantaged retirement accounts in the latest attempt at a fiscal cliff fix. That’s welcome news for those who say right now most Americans don’t do enough to save for retirement. WNPR’s Harriet Jones reports.
Surveys consistently show that working for or owning a small business is a woefully bad way to plan for your golden years.
One group that didn’t get the Christmas present they were hoping for this year is the nation’s credit unions. They want to expand their lending to small businesses, but as Harriet Jones reports, regulation – and opposition from the banks -- stands in their way.
Many credit unions have a history of humble beginnings, and the Charter Oak credit union, based in Groton, is no exception.
“We were born in the Electric Boat boatyard, out of a lunchbox where five people put in $25.”
The historic Colt complex in Hartford just got a new tenant. WNPR's Jeff Cohen reports. The Colt has been in development limbo for years, and it's gone through a series of developers. But things are looking up.
The Malloy administration has made a big commitment to nurture manufacturing in Connecticut, despite the fall off in employment in the sector over a period of decades. Are they right to place so much faith in making things here? A new analysis attempts to answer that question.
The Naugatuck River Valley is one of the great seats of Connecticut’s manufacturing history. And Bill Purcell, president of the Valley Chamber of Commerce says that’s still relevant today.
It seems there’s no end to the negative consequences of the fiscal cliff. And just the latest to be highlighted is the chaos it’s about to cause for payroll managers. WNPR’s Harriet Jones reports.
If there’s one thing taxes cause, it’s paperwork. In a little more than a week from now, payroll managers everywhere will have to start computing paychecks for employees for the new year. Trouble is, no-one knows how much tax we’ll be paying.
The state of Connecticut is offering financial incentives to small businesses to carry out research for large corporations. As WNPR’s Harriet Jones reports, the state is acting as a matchmaker for new projects
Innovation is expensive and often risky. It also requires many creative thinkers to get it working. That’s why increasingly many big technology-based corporations are looking for new partnerships and ways to outsource research and development functions.
A new state initiative sees Connecticut’s airports as drivers of the economy. Bradley has been the model for this concept, and the vision may soon be replicated around the state. WNPR’s Harriet Jones reports.
When Connecticut’s new quasi public Airport Authority was created last year, Governor Dannel Malloy gave it one, overriding mission – economic development.
While shoppers gear up for Black Friday – maybe even for the midnight doorbusters on Thanksgiving – small businesses are hoping they won’t be forgotten in the holiday rush. This weekend marks the third annual Small Business Saturday. WNPR’s Harriet Jones reports.
If you’re a regular traveler on I-95, the name Clinton might bring to mind the big outlet mall that looms over the highway near that town.
The National Flood Insurance Program promises help for businesses and homeowners caught in devastating weather events like Sandy. But it’s a huge burden on taxpayers, and some critics argue that it encourages building in flood-prone areas. WNPR’s Sujata Srinivasan reports on how new rate increases for the program might affect its future.
Nearly 40% of small businesses that sustain severe flood damage in natural disasters subsequently close down. Pop’s Grocery on Main Street in Bridgeport is struggling to stay off that list.
Storms like Sandy are a huge liability for homeowners, businesses, and insurers. And one forecast say future weather-related losses will increase by up to 30% in Northeast coastal regions. Now some are asking if the insurance market could be a new lever to mitigate weather-related risks. WNPR’s Sujata Srinivasan reports on the opportunities for green insurance products.
The nation’s growing deficit looms large over this election season, and once the vote is over, the winners will have to grapple with sequestration – a threatened across-the-board cut to federal budgets. WNPR’s Harriet Jones reports on what that might mean for Connecticut ’s defense jobs.
Two polling places in Connecticut had to be moved for election day because of the destruction caused by Superstorm Sandy. As WNPR’s Harriet Jones reports, the switch may have affected turnout in at least one case.
Bridgeport and New London were the two towns that had to move a long-established polling place – in New London, the third district normally votes at Ocean Beach Park, but a ceiling collapse after the storm made the building unusable. Republican registrar of voters, Barbara Major.
Connecticut boasts about 34 wineries, each making their own varieties of wine. State law requires wineries to make their wines with at least 25 percent juice made from Connecticut-grown grapes. But there are suspicions that some vintners are skirting that law, and that is making some growers who are complying with the law angry. Hartford Advocate senior staff writer Gregory Hladky broke the story, and he joins us by phone.
If you’re a business owner affected by Superstorm Sandy, you may be eligible for a loan from the U.S. Small Business Administration. WNPR’s Sujata Srinivasan reports from a FEMA Disaster Recovery Center in Bridgeport.
As Connecticut gets back on its feet in the wake of Sandy, job number one for many small businesses is just to be able to open their doors once again. As WNPR’s Harriet Jones reports, in some hard hit shoreline communities, that’s a challenge.
Monday morning, as Sandy bore down on the tri-state coastline, some businesses defied the oncoming weather. In downtown Mystic, Wide World of Bagels was one of the few stores that still had power and owner Nicole Denkis was running to keep up with all the additional customers.
Governor Dannel Malloy has appealed for patience as restoration efforts continue after Hurricane Sandy. The governor toured affected shoreline communities Wednesday. WNPR’s Harriet Jones reports.
Governor Malloy began his tour in Stonington, battered by intense winds and flooded by storm surge during Sandy. Part of the town dock, home to the state’s only commercial fishing fleet, was washed away.

For some reason, the Pirates are incapable of winning a series against the Astros this season. The teams have now played three 3-game sets. All three times the series was tied 1-1 after the first two. All three times, Houston took the rubber match.
Of course, today looked grave with Ian Snell on the mound for the Bucs and Felipe Paulino (a terrible pitcher that the Pirates would likely be unable to touch) pitching for the Astros. But hey, the Pirates were able to jump out to a 1-0 lead on a Jason Jaramillo double in the 2nd.
Paulino would have to leave the game in the 2nd due to a groin injury, so Russ Ortiz (who is also a miserably bad pitcher) came in and tossed 4.1 scoreless innings, so I suppose the trend continued yet again today. Luckily, Ian Snell wasn’t awful today and kept the Pirates in the game. His final line: 6 innings, 3 runs, 8 hits, 1 walk, 3 K’s. Good enough to stay in the rotation, but he was still on the hook as the Bucs trailed 3-1.
The Pirates came to the plate in the 7th seemingly on a mission, starting the inning with a walk and two singles to load the bases–with no outs–for Andrew McCutchen. Cutch hit a chopper for an RBI groundout to make it 3-2. Nyjer Morgan (in the midst of a HUGE slump) then singled to tie the game. After a Freddy walk, the Pirates had the bases loaded once again with Adam LaRoche coming to bat. He worked a 2-0 count. Things were looking good. At that point, I had to leave and would not see/hear any more of the game.
Turns out Adam GIDP’d. Steven Jackson came in and gave up a cheap run due to some shoddy Ramon Vazquez defense (Jack was out today with a minor shoulder injury). Jackson and Jesse Chavez would combine to allow two more runs in the 8th to make the score 6-3 Astros. The Bucs squeaked one out in the ninth to make the final 6-4…at least Andrew McCutchen had three hits.
The Bucs had a chance to gain some more ground and move within just 2 games of .500 today. Unfortunately, a promising 7th inning turned sour and they weren’t able to recover. On to Atlanta–you might have heard of their center fielder.
Pirates 4, Astros 6 / [Box] / 2009 Record: 26-30 / Next: Tomorrow, at Braves, 7:10
MVP: Young (+.188) / LVP: Adam LaRoche (-.288) / Most important play: The LaRoche DP in the 7th

Rodrigo tells me he loves shopping, which is lucky. He runs the network Eurocoop, which represents retail consumer cooperatives with thirty five thousand cooperative shops across Europe.
He is keen to encourage joint buying across the cooperative sector and there are some good examples, including Eroski in Spain with mutual partners in Germany and France, who are showing the way.
His suggestion, at our recent retail cooperative conference in Stratford, is that we start perhaps with one product and build from there. And what? He suggests pasta.
So you heard it here first. 2012 is the International Year of Co-operatives. 2013 could become the … International Year of Co-operative Spaghetti.

- July 23, 2014
This is straight up WTF!
Cristiano Ronaldo is currently in the Far East, and on Tuesday the Real Madrid star was on Japanese TV.
During his TV appearance, on local host decided it would be fun to entertain the Portugal star by putting a block in his mouth with two tentacles pointing out each side, make himself go cross-eyed, and shake his head like a nutter.
Unsurprisingly, Cristiano looked completely stunning by the whacky behaviour.
See a video of how a Japanese TV presenter pulled off an epically weirdest thing for Ronaldo below.

We should all be thankful for the strong civic and moral leadership so apparent in the greater St. Cloud area – leaders who speak up with force and clarity against the dark undercurrents of prejudice and bigotry.
We mean leaders like St. Cloud Mayor Dave Kleis and Catholic Bishop Donald Kettler, to name just two. Recently, Kettler and Kleis didn’t hesitate to speak up on behalf of the Somali people living in our cities. Both extended sympathy to Somalis shaken by the horrible terrorist bombing in Mogadishu when they attended a Somali rally in solidarity with bombing victims in Somalia.
Besides offering solidarity, Mayor Kleis and others were also quick to take serious issue with a suggestion by St. Cloud City Council member Jeff Johnson to place a temporary moratorium on the resettlement of new refugees to St. Cloud. Johnson’s request brought a quick push-back reaction when the St. Cloud City Council voted 5-1 at a subsequent meeting to pass a resolution to support a “just and welcoming community.”
Many churches, businesses, educators and people of all kinds have also spoken loudly and clearly in support of our good newcomers/neighbors – Muslims and non-Muslims.
Anyone born and raised in St. Cloud, as I was, is well aware of how St. Cloud was – and is – sometimes pejoratively referred to as “White Cloud.” It’s an unfair put-down because the thoughtless or cruel words and actions of some should not be used to besmirch the welcoming kindness of most.
When I was a knee-high tot, my mother and I were at the post office in downtown St. Cloud. I suddenly saw a black man walking across the street. It’s the first time I ever saw a black man in person. I was scared and started crying. Mom, to her credit, shook my arm and scolded, “Don’t be silly. He’s like everyone else. He just happens to be black; we just happen to be white.”
Mom was a teacher. A good teacher.
In the schools of my day and age, virtually all students and teachers were Caucasians. At St. Cloud Tech High School, circa 1965, there was a Nigerian male exchange student and a Brazilian female exchange student, the first “colored” people most of us had ever known up to that point. It’s not surprising the nearly total predominance of white people in St. Cloud gave rise to the “White Cloud” moniker.
Yes, there were examples of racism and bigotry, here as everywhere. I recall vividly in the 1970s how my brother’s brother-in-law, James, partly of Mexican heritage, born in Grand Rapids, Minn., was the object of verbal slights sometimes. One afternoon, while James and I were walking along Fifth Avenue S., some jeering hooligans rolled down their car windows and yelled, “Hey, you, where’s your green card?! Go back to where you came from!”
In the 1960s, some otherwise wonderful neighbors complained about the Civil Rights struggles in the South, claiming “if you give ‘em an inch, they’ll take a mile,” and one neighbor man (it’s painful to recall this) guffawed loudly when black actress Diahann Carroll landed the starring role in her own series, Julia, about a nurse. “See?” the man rumbled. “Didn’t I tell you? Now they’re taking over TV!” What’s really sad is that man, whom I knew as well as my own father, was very kind-hearted and would have given a black man the shirt off his back – that is, if he would have ever met a black man, in our white town, who needed a shirt.
Sometimes, in public places and check-out lines, I overhear cruel snide remarks and viciously stupid “jokes” whispered about Somalis. Makes me cringe. Oh yes, prejudices remain. Vestiges of ignorance. We have some work to do.
However, I still strongly believe the overwhelming number of people in this area are kind, hospitable, welcoming – leaders like Mayor Kleis; like Bishop Kettler; like Natalie Ringsmuth of Waite Park, who initiated, with Somali help, the excellent UniteCloud organization/website. There are so many others in all walks of life who speak up in solidarity for diversity and inclusion.
We should encourage all mayors and councils of the greater St. Cloud area to pass resolutions in support of a “just and welcoming community.” Speaking up, acting in solidarity, reaching out to newcomers, lending helping hands – those are always the best ways to counter prejudices.

Why Taylor Swift Is the Latest Example of the Anti-Celebrity
Ms. Swift is something of an antithesis of celebrity — the anti-celebrity, if you will. This is not to say that Swift has not earned bona-fide celebrity status; her 2014 release, 1989, was the year's best-selling album, and she released a string of hits from it. Her concerts sell out, her fashion choices fly off the racks; she's even popular with fellow celebrities, apparently as the one others seek out for home décor and gift-giving advice. She is truly a pop-culture phenomenon.
What makes her the anti-celebrity, then? To begin with, consider how she got where she is: from her earliest beginnings, Swift has written the lyrics and melodies to most of her own music. Her songs, while hardly of a depth that endures (no one wonders whether her canon of work will take its place alongside the Beatles or Elvis — but who could be surprised at this? They have all of the complexity that one might expect from a 21st century early-20s musician), are nevertheless sincere, heartfelt, and honest. She sings, plays multiple instruments, she dances — she is anything but the canned, over-produced found faces that are typically foisted upon the world as the next pop sensation.
The way that she handles this phenomenal success and celebrity also stands out. Most performers who achieve even a fraction of the success that Swift has find it challenging to sustain any level of consistent output, let alone face the fame and attention that accompanies such success. Rather than assuming the role of distant, unapproachable diva, Swift seeks out opportunities to connect with her fans, engaging them directly through social media and, most recently, writing personal notes to accompany the Christmas (and Hanukkah) gifts she bought for them. Compared with her peers — Miley Cyrus, say, or Justin Bieber — Swift is the exception, not the rule: whereas both Ms. Cyrus and Mr. Bieber have both exhibited public behavior that suggests a certain instability, the worst anyone can say of Ms. Swift is that she has dated a lot of boys.
And even that is something of a microcosm of the entire anti-celebrity aspect that is Taylor Swift. Seizing on this one opportunity to mock her, fellow celebrities and cultural critics alike have taken every opportunity to tease and ridicule her about it. How does she respond? After years of brushing it off, she eventually wrote a song as a parody of her own relational flakiness, then — in further affirmation of her simultaneous self-confidence and self-effacing nature — lip-synced her own song with BBC personality Greg James.
She also defies the stereotypes when it comes to her commercial work. Standing up for her own convictions about artists getting paid fairly for their creations, she withdrew her entire body of work from the streaming service Spotify. Meanwhile, she subtly embraces the free culture movement, even tweeting about covers of her own songs. Somehow, she is successfully navigating both sides of this debate without getting sucked into the middle of it.
Best of all, she seems happy. Rather than requiring that every public appearance make some sort of statement or devolving into a persona of innuendo or dark introspection, Swift looks like she's having fun and enjoying her life. She doesn't blow her earnings on evanescent trimmings or lavish parties; instead, she is active in philanthropy and has invested wisely in real estate. She is generous with her time and her money, and exudes gratitude for the interest others have in her music and for the life her fame affords her. Her dating life aside, Swift may be one of the most emotionally and mentally stable public figures in our culture.
In a cultural climate where many of our most recognizable personalities are best-known for their risqué wardrobe choices (and malfunctions), their most recent scandals, or their cynicism, Taylor Swift stands out as a celebrity worth celebrating. She stands alone in her field as the star who both reaches climactic heights of success and does so without resorting to lurid or blush-inducing behavior. She displays both confidence and humility, and is disinterested in much of the pettiness that stardom often draws others into.
Is she a perfect role model for our daughters? Of course not — but there are no perfect role models. If the best that we can hope for is someone who shows us that fame and fortune are not utterly incongruent with a life of contentment and a modicum of modesty, Swift fulfills those hopes beyond expectation.

With Eyes Of The Heart, musician’s musician Keith Jarrett landed one of his last American Quartet flights. This live performance, recorded just one month after The Survivors’ Suite, is a journey of a rather different stripe. Jarrett whoops with delight as he opens Part One in a delicate congregation of drums. The kalimba-like bass of Charlie Haden hops from one foot to another as Jarrett looses a soprano sax into the prevailing winds. Only later does the expected piano shine through his fingertips.
As part of the Re:solutions series this historical title has been mastered from original analog sources and reissued in January 2014. “Something special happens when they play together” observed Robert Palmer in the New York Times, and the participants concurred. “Playing with John is one of my favourite things to do,” said Ralph Towner. “I can play as much as when playing solo, and still get to ply my skills as accompanist.
As part of the Re:solutions series this historical title has been mastered from original analog sources and reissued in January 2014. Between 1979 and 1982, the Miroslav Vitouš Group was the primary outlet for the abundant improvisational skills of leader Vitouš and John Surman. They made three ECM albums: this eponymously-titled disc from 1980 is the middle one.
Thanks in no small part to ECM founder Manfred Eicher's patience and indulgence, here we have another of Keith Jarrett's myriad "special projects" – two CDs of music recorded on a clavichord. This carries Jarrett's anti-electric crusade to a real extreme, the clavichord being a keyboard from J.S. Bach's day, obsolete for over 200 years. The instrument produces a gentle pinging sound like a harpsichord crossed with a zither (the amplified Hohner Clavinet is the closest sound in our time), and Jarrett occasionally tries to stretch the instrument's limited possibilities, hammering percussively on the close-miked strings. Yet for the most part, Jarrett reins in his world-class technique in order to make unpretentiously minimal music on this ancient keyboard. Some of it sounds like folk music, some like new age contemplation, there are convincing neo-baroque musings, and a few of these untitled though numbered selections kick into a higher gear. Sometimes this music is charming…But hey, they also laughed when Keith started putting out massive sets of solo piano…
It is very much out of character for the prolific Keith Jarrett and his producer Manfred Eicher to hold anything back, yet they've done it here, releasing these live tapes of Jarrett's European quartet ten years after they were recorded. Presumably, they did it in order not to distract attention from Nude Ants, which was recorded a week after these concerts, but that never stopped them before from just piling on more discs. In any case, these Tokyo recordings were too good to hide; the quartet had reached an interactive creative high around this time, often burning at the rarified level that Nude Ants reached.
A fascinating set from three strong and contrasting musical personalities: Norwegian saxophonist, Brazilian guitarist-pianist, and US bassist making purposeful and creative music together on this previously unreleased live recording. “Carta de Amor” documents music captured at Munich’s Amerika Haus in April, 1981. Two years on from the much-loved albums “Magico” (ECM 1151) and “Folk Songs” (ECM 1170), the trio’s improvisational empathy and sensibilities were further honed by experiences as a touring group. Repertoire includes five pieces from Gismonti’s pen, with the title track heard in two variations, opening and closing this enthralling double album.
Enjoy three A-list players teaming up to celebrate the sorties into the wilder reaches of jazz-rock made by Tony Williams’s band, Lifetime. John Scofield is at his bluesy best vying with the versatile Hammond of Larry Goldings, Jack DeJohnette on drums is a precise mix of grace and fire.
The stage cantata David features Eleni Karaindrou’s music for a unique piece of Aegean drama, a verse play with words by an unknown 18th century poet from the island of Chios. Its text (first published only in 1979), invites a musical response and Greek composer Karaindrou rises splendidly to the challenge, imaginatively moving between past and present in her settings for mezzo-soprano and baritone singers, instrumental soloists, choir and orchestra.
The Danish String Quartet has had some wildly original programming ideas; here they settle for just a well-thought-out set of contemporary pieces. All three of these string quartets are early works by composers who have since gone on to renown; at the time of the album's 2016 release, Hans Abrahamsen was gaining lots of attention from well beyond his native Denmark.

Health Benefits Of Turmeric – Curcumin
Turmeric has actually been shown to be one of the finest foods to preserve, protect, and increase immunity, lowering the threat of falling ill. Turmeric has antiviral, anti-bacterial and antimicrobial properties. Turmeric can alleviate pain and is utilized as a painkiller for arthritis pain. This has actually been studied in several trials, especially for patients with arthritis.
Oxidative damage is believed to be among the mechanisms behind the advancement of numerous illness and aging. Curcumin is a powerful anti-oxidant that can assist reduce the effects of complimentary radicals. Aside from that, curcumin can improve the activity of antioxidant enzymes in the body. Curcumin can enhance and increase levels of the brain hormone brain-derived neurotrophic aspect (BDNF), which promotes the development of new neurons and fend off lots of degenerative processes in the brain.
Curcumin plays a significant role in the prevention of heart illness. Its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties can improve the function of the endothelium.

Farmers in several parts of the world are resorting to GMO cultivation methods to bring in more profits from corn produce. In addition, the production of GMO corn is being favored for being consistently high in quality. These innovative bioengineering methods make GMO corn resistant against pesticides, herbicides and crop diseases. According to Fact.MR’s forecast study, the demand for GMO corn will continue to gain traction in the near future.

Amazon Studios is run by Jennifer Salke.
Amazon announced it won the rights to stream the Mindy Kaling comedy Late Night in the United States this year after its premiere Friday night. The deal was worth $13 million, according to CNET and Variety.
"It seems fitting that this film written by, directed by and focused on women will be shared with the world by a studio that is anchored by another incredible female," Kaling, who wrote, producers and stars in the film said Sunday in a statement. "Also, I have spent a fortune on Amazon, so it's nice to see them reciprocate."
Kaling portrays a young comedy writer hired to diversify the all-male writers' room of a late-night talk show. It also stars Emma Thompson and John Lithgow.
"It's taken years and years of working alone on it, uncertain it would ever be seen," Kaling tweeted. "So, yeah, my heart is about to explode."
FilmNation Entertainment and 30WEST financed Kaling's film.
