From: Preston Maddock Sent: Thursday, May 05, 2016 3:28 PM To: Wei, Shu-Yen Subject: It Wasn't Just A Bad Dream: Trump Questions Still Loom For Toomey Pat Toomey's campaign has gone dark after Donald Trump sewed up the GOP presidential nomination on Tuesday. Numerous media inquiries into Toomey's reaction have been ignored , despite his long-standing pledge to support whomever becomes the nominee . Now his campaign is trying to create some ambiguous distance between himself and Trump. "Pat Toomey has made it very clear that he disagrees with Donald Trump in several areas," his spokesman said in a statement today. That's news to anyone who's been following this race. What are the "several areas" where Pat Toomey "has made it very clear that he disagrees with Trump"? And if Toomey so strongly opposes parts of Trump's candidacy, why does he continue to support him for President? When he comes out of his Trump-induced witness protection, we look forward to Toomey clarifying this for Pennsylvania voters. He can start with the unanswered questions below... ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Preston Maddock > Date: Wed, May 4, 2016 at 12:28 PM Subject: Tremendous Questions For The Trump-Toomey Ticket [ReTrumplican.gif] As RNC Chairman Reince Priebus said last night , it's over, Donald Trump is the presumptive Republican presidential nominee. After months of evasive answers on Trump's candidacy -- even calling the association between the two "outrageous " as recently as last week (even though Toomey has pledged to support the nominee ) -- it's time that Pat Toomey answer some important questions about his party's standard-bearer. Here are what Pennsylvanians deserve to know about the Trump-Toomey ticket over the next six months: · Does Toomey think Donald Trump is qualified to nominate the next Supreme Court Justice ? · Does Toomey agree with Trump that women running for office, like Katie McGinty, are playing the "woman card "? · How does Toomey square his support of Trump with the presidential nominee's belief that "wages are too high " in America? · Does Toomey think there should be "punishment " for women seeking abortions? · Will he support Trump's plan to round-up and forcibly deport 11 million undocumented workers? · When Trump calls for police to patrol Muslim neighborhoods , does Toomey agree with that proposal? · Does Toomey think we should build a border wall with Mexico and that Mexico will pay for it? · Doesn't Trump's praise of geopolitical adversaries like Vladimir Putin disqualify him to be Commander in Chief? · Torture and targeting civilians violate international laws. Does Toomey agree with Trump on supporting tactics like waterboarding and killing civilians in war zones? Bonus campaign questions: · Will Toomey campaign with Trump over the next six months? · Will he accept Trump's offer to help with fundraising?

Thanks Phil, (Tom: Congrats again!) The Soon & Baliunas paper couldn't have cleared a 'legitimate' peer review process anywhere. That leaves only one possibility--that the peer-review process at Climate Research has been hijacked by a few skeptics on the editorial board. And it isn't just De Frietas, unfortunately I think this group also includes a member of my own department... The skeptics appear to have staged a 'coup' at "Climate Research" (it was a mediocre journal to begin with, but now its a mediocre journal with a definite 'purpose'). Folks might want to check out the editors and review editors: [1] In fact, Mike McCracken first pointed out this article to me, and he and I have discussed this a bit. I've cc'd Mike in on this as well, and I've included Peck too. I told Mike that I believed our only choice was to ignore this paper. They've already achieved what they wanted--the claim of a peer-reviewed paper. There is nothing we can do about that now, but the last thing we want to do is bring attention to this paper, which will be ignored by the community on the whole... It is pretty clear that thee skeptics here have staged a bit of a coup, even in the presence of a number of reasonable folks on the editorial board (Whetton, Goodess, ...). My guess is that Von Storch is actually with them (frankly, he's an odd individual, and I'm not sure he isn't himself somewhat of a skeptic himself), and without Von Storch on their side, they would have a very forceful personality promoting their new vision. There have been several papers by Pat Michaels, as well as the Soon & Baliunas paper, that couldn't get published in a reputable journal. This was the danger of always criticising the skeptics for not publishing in the "peer-reviewed literature". Obviously, they found a solution to that--take over a journal! So what do we do about this? I think we have to stop considering "Climate Research" as a legitimate peer-reviewed journal. Perhaps we should encourage our colleagues in the climate research community to no longer submit to, or cite papers in, this journal. We would also need to consider what we tell or request of our more reasonable colleagues who currently sit on the editorial board... What do others think? mike At 08:49 AM 3/11/2003 +0000, Phil Jones wrote: Dear All, Apologies for sending this again. I was expecting a stack of emails this morning in response, but I inadvertently left Mike off (mistake in pasting) and picked up Tom's old address. Tom is busy though with another offspring ! I looked briefly at the paper last night and it is appalling - worst word I can think of today without the mood pepper appearing on the email ! I'll have time to read more at the weekend as I'm coming to the US for the DoE CCPP meeting at Charleston. Added Ed, Peck and Keith A. onto this list as well. I would like to have time to rise to the bait, but I have so much else on at the moment. As a few of us will be at the EGS/AGU meet in Nice, we should consider what to do there. The phrasing of the questions at the start of the paper determine the answer they get. They have no idea what multiproxy averaging does. By their logic, I could argue 1998 wasn't the warmest year globally, because it wasn't the warmest everywhere. With their LIA being 1300- 1900 and their MWP 800-1300, there appears (at my quick first reading) no discussion of synchroneity of the cool/warm periods. Even with the instrumental record, the early and late 20th century warming periods are only significant locally at between 10-20% of grid boxes. Writing this I am becoming more convinced we should do something - even if this is just to state once and for all what we mean by the LIA and MWP. I think the skeptics will use this paper to their own ends and it will set paleo back a number of years if it goes unchallenged. I will be emailing the journal to tell them I'm having nothing more to do with it until they rid themselves of this troublesome editor. A CRU person is on the editorial board, but papers get dealt with by the editor assigned by Hans von Storch. Cheers Phil Dear all, Tim Osborn has just come across this. Best to ignore probably, so don't let it spoil your day. I've not looked at it yet. It results from this journal having a number of editors. The responsible one for this is a well-known skeptic in NZ. He has let a few papers through by Michaels and Gray in the past. I've had words with Hans von Storch about this, but got nowhere. Another thing to discuss in Nice !

Is there a way to get my read email downloaded off webmail.eircom.net. I've been reading the emails using the web based interface. But I've reached my quota limit. There doesn't seem to be any way to get the emails off the server. I can connect to the account using POP, but that only retrieves unread emails. There's also no way to mark emails as unread from the html interface. Is there a way I can use fetchmail perhaps to get it to pull down all the emails and remove them off the server. It's been years since I've used fetchmail, I don't recall be able to do this. Any other suggestions welcome. There's a few hundred email so I don't fancy going through each one forwarding it to another account. Glen -- Irish Linux Users' Group: ilug@linux.ie  for (un)subscription information.

Hi Steven, I'm thrilled you find it useful – we intend it to be a living document as the strategy is further defined and something hopefully becomes a valued reference for all the stakeholders involved with this film. You're right on target on Latin America of course – I just got in some home video info today on DESPICABLE ME and HOTEL in the region to suggest that DM1 grew into the monster hit that DM2 leveraged later, something the local teams had told me but I wanted to verify. And, Philip Alexander, for example, was also very specific about the lower dailies for an October release relative to other times of the year, much like the U.S. I plan to re-calibrate the statement about Latin America and the slide later that supports it. Yet at the same time, as you point out, there is still a large opportunity to perform significantly above our current targets but not quite as much as the DM2 performance would suggest. Eventizing is critical as you write, and the territories have some really great suggestions on how we get there but they need the home office to push a lot of great creative through the pipe with the right lead time. There should be another round on this document, including those changes above as well as any additional comments from the territories' review, early next week. I also received China's input, so that will be included as well. Happy to come in when convenient for you and run you through it. Best, Jeffrey VaraniniTel: 310-840-8378 Email: jeffrey_varanini@spe.sony.com From: ODell, Steven Sent: Thursday, October 16, 2014 6:07 PMTo: Varanini, JeffreySubject: RE: Hotel T 2 Hi Jeffrey," Thank you for this. At first read some really great info and learnings for us. For now, a couple things that stand out. I think the slide titled "Dispicable Me 2 Performance suggests Bigger HT2 Opportunities" is too aggressive of a comp to highlight. The next line after that title suggests that Hotel T2 should grow like DM2 because HT1 was bigger than DM1; However, Rio 2 was bigger than DM1 and Rio 2 didn't have anywhere near the growth vs. Rio 1 that DM2 had vs. DM1. I just don't think the numbers support the conclusion that a bigger box office of the original in theatrical necessarily correlates to growth rate for sequels for animated films. I agree with you that the ancillary business will probably confirm that the Minions drove that film to new levels after the theatrical release. I absolutely want to chase the success of DM2 but I think we should go easier on this correlation. The other thing that stands out is the idea that Latin America projects to more growth than other regions. While it is most definitely an opportunity region on this franchise, as we are releasing in a non-holiday time frame, the market size for family films can have a ceiling. I am very bullish on the region but we have to keep in mind that Hotel T is already up there among the very biggest non-holiday family releases of all-time. I'm optimistic, but we have to explore how we can eventize it to get a broader opening weekend audience as family will only take us so far. Again, some really great stuff here. I think you have the hooks nailed (Fish out of Water, Mavis/Drac relationship, cute monsters, etc.). This is a great exercise. Once I spend a bit more time with it, would really like to walk through it with you. Best, StevenFrom: Varanini, Jeffrey Sent: Wednesday, October 15, 2014 4:39 PMTo: ODell, StevenSubject: RE: Hotel T 2 Steven, I wanted to let you that I did pass these notes on …. Also, wanted to share with you the current draft. This is out to Nigel as well as the territory teams for a final round of comments. It's also currently missing home video numbers for DESPICABLE ME and HOTEL T, which is important to the point of how much potential we think is in Latin America for our film. Our territory teams have said that DESPICABLE 1 turned into a phenomenon on home video, but I want to see how well our film performed in that window too. Happy to walk you through this if that would be helpful. All the best, Jeffrey VaraniniBusiness & Franchise DevelopmentSony Pictures Digital ProductionsTel: 310-840-8378 Email: jeffrey_varanini@spe.sony.com From: ODell, Steven Sent: Tuesday, August 26, 2014 11:01 AMTo: Varanini, JeffreySubject: Hotel T 2 Hi Jeffrey, As you continue to collect information from the territories on Hotel T2, I'm including some notes from a key manager who works here with me but is involved with all of our markets. Really good story sensibility. Just additional "food for thought" as you gather input. Best, Steven -The main female roles were a bit old-fashioned and stereotypical in a negative way. Women seem to be, with very few exceptions, only serving the story as foils to the men (Mavis wants to remove Dennis from his loving Dracula, Dana obstructs Dracula and his crew from having fun.) A clip that goes viral on the internet, it's musical refrain is a dismissive, "your mother is already nutsynutsy cuckoo." These females were portrayed as: insecure (Mavis doesn't want her son to be "Freaky like me"), focused on romantic relationships with men (Winnie says "I am gonna marry you," upon first meeting Dennis, Eunice advises Mavis that she should not neglect her husband ) and in need of rescue (Winnie asks this of Dennis at the end) – in fact, the first page of the script is Dracula's enactment of a female doll needing to be rescued by Dracula. - In the first Hotel Transylvania (HT), the character arc of Dracula involved him learning to let go as a parent, and coming to terms with his lack of control over life/nature. This seemed to be in contradiction with Dracula's incessant interfering with Mavis' parenting and his quest to keep her from moving away in HT2. Another lesson he learned was to accept humans, when he directly benefitted from their kindness. These lessons learned in HT seem to have been forgotten by the beginning of HT2. -One of Mavis' traits in HT is her willingness to embrace differences, she is the bridge between humans and monsters. In HT2, she wants to remove herself from monsters all together, and almost doesn't enjoy their company anymore. -In HT2, the lesson of accepting and loving your child regardless how they turn out, is unconvincing when the child turns out as you had hoped for (Dennis has fangs). -The use of the word diabolic when referring to a child, on page 95, may be offensive to Christians. --

Seriously, this is not a prank! Ever since I was down toward Des Moines last week and had a cup-o-java with Jake at Starbucks, I've been craving coffee. I can't see myself turning into a coffee junkie like Chris, but it's just weird that this would happen, being that my extent of coffee drinking has usually been limited to the severe need for a quick morning wake-up or in an effort to keep warm on cold mornings when out in the field back in my Marine Corps days. As time has gone on, I've been trying to cut back on the typical geek vices of sugar and caffeine, but I can't drink coffee straight. It has to be sweet, and what's the point of drinking coffee if there's no caffeine? Enter Splenda. An artificial sweetener that has finally made it to Waterloo, Iowa. Most of what Diana and I use sugar for has been modified to use Splenda instead, with good results. Hopefully this coffee thing is just a temporary kick like it usually is. I have to brush my teeth after a cup or two from the nasty breath. It's fun to test out the dragon-breath on the cat to see just how bad it really is. If Bootes sniffs a couple of times, it's not too bad, but if she instantly recoils, time to employ the Sonicare for a couple of minutes. See what you've started, Jake?

In what seems like a direct response, we're handed details of the 2003 release of Exchange Titanium. I've always liked what Exchange can do, so I'm certainly looking forward to seeing what the new features will be all about, but I'm also interested in what Oracle will be bringing to the table. Better email functionality, control and security are the name of the game, whoever ends up being the vendor of choice. Included in this Q&A is a screenshot of what Outlook may look like once Office 11 is released. It's an interesting concept shot, showing some new ways they plan to handle email views. It doesn't say anything for Exchange functionality, but it's worth noting regardless. GnomeSYSTEM Better Pocket PC Audio Unearthed by David Spencer ~mdukette/downloads.html An open source project is bringing a different spin to audio and video on Pocket PCs, and my first impression is... cool! I like what they're working on here. I decided to wipe out my Jornada yesterday, so I haven't done a direct comparison between the iPaq 3870 and Jornada 565 for audio quality using this player, which has an equalizer built-in, but it definitely has potential judging from how it sounds on the iPaq right out of the gate. Definitely give this a peek if you're one of those that likes to play audio and video on a Pocket PC.

Three readers asked me about this very thing this week, and it's something you should probably know about if you use Windows XP. Microsoft didn't bundle the Java Virtual Machine with Windows XP, and since the release of XP, the JVM has been avaialble via the Windows Update site as a "convenience" to users. Part of Sun's legal complaints surrounding how Microsoft has handled Java was that Microsoft did not have the right to distribute their implementation via the web, though they did have licensing rights to include it with Windows. So essentially, Microsoft has things backwards, as it seems. Well, to avoid further web distribution arguments, Microsoft has yanked the JVM from the Windows Update site and all other areas of Microsoft's web site. Microsoft is still planning to include Java with Windows XP Service Pack 1. You'll have to plan for Java support accordingly, as SP1 is still a ways off and you can't get it from Microsoft at this point. If you need it for a new installation of Windows XP in the short term, Sun will gladly provide you with their own distibution. GnomeSTUFF Another Xeon Deal Served up by Warren Dugas I mentioned a really nice deal on Compaq Evo W6000 dual- Xeon workstations a few weeks back, which I know several of you took advantage of, but the $1999 price tag likely scared off many others. If you still want to get into a Xeon, check this one out. TigerDirect is offering an Evo W8000 workstation with a single 1.7GHz processor, 18.2GB 15,000rpm U160 drive, 48x CD-ROM and licenses for both Windows 2000 Pro and NT 4.0 Workstation for $699.99. Note that there is NO memory and no video card included, so you'll have to scrounge those for yourself, but it really is a pretty good deal, on the whole. Also realize that these systems take RAMBUS memory, which will add a bit of cost, so be sure you know what you're getting - a wicked-fast workstation, to be sure! Expandability is also quite amazing with these machines. Recommend It!

Whoops. You should change that to: ... are always candidates for predictive or preventive delay. ACKs are delayed (per flow) in such a way that WAN-bound traffic reaching the edge router's Ethernet interface does not exceed WAN link speed (NO ROUTER QUEUES!). It does not wait for the link to be at or near saturation to act -- that is why, unlike queueing, it is predictive and not reactive. It slows down the rate of transmission of sending hosts (on a per-flow basis) to accommodate WAN link speed limit and current network utilization, rather than fill up queues at LAN speeds and empty them at WAN speeds, eventually dropping the excess once the queue(s) fill up, informing hosts to slow down their rate of transmission once queues are beyond a fixed threshold (90%?). Rate control works equally well for outbound and inbound traffic. Ever heard of an effective queueing technology for inbound traffic? Queueing packets after they have crossed a congested link does not make much sense, does it? Re: IPsec/GRE or other encapsulated traffic It obviously cannot dissect IPsec/GRE or other encapsulated traffic: it sees the tunnel as one connection if the tunneling device is before the PS on the LAN side (VPN gateway and router are two separate devices, PS between them). If the router does the tunneling, then the PS sees clear traffic. Typically, in an organization the first scenario would be the case at headquarters and the second at branch offices. The PS at the branch sees traffic inside the tunnel whereas the unit at HQ sees all traffic as one tunnel which allows full management of both tunneled and clear traffic at both ends. UDP and asymmetrical TCP (where the PS and router only see the outgoing packet, return traffic coming back through a satellite downlink to a station on the LAN) are handled differently. For asymmetrical TCP, it will time the release of packets to the receiving device, thereby indirectly timing the release of acknowledgements by the receiving host. This informs the sender's TCP/IP stack that it should slow the release of packets because limited bandwidth is available. For UDP, it utilizes flow-based derivative random drop. It selectively drops only one packet at a time from flows that are predicted to cause congestion, which prevents heavy retransmissions and application timeouts. ICMP packets exceeding policy limits are dropped. >_Maybe_ you can do a special case for TCP and try to offload some of the queueing on > the endpoints, but I really don't see the real gain in that. The real gain is manageability and control. A LAN host only knows about the state of its own connections and is oblivious to WAN conditions until its TCP/IP stack learns (when router queues are nearly full) that the WAN is congested. A PS will predict and inform the LAN hosts' TCP/IP stacks of the "speed limit to obey" for every connection (based on policies and network conditions), avoiding congestion. Control for asymmetrical TCP and UDP may not be as "tight" as for symmetrical TCP, but it does work. Queueing is akin to deploying cops only when traffic jams occur, vs. rate control where cops are permanently deployed throughout town, communicating with each other and with a central control point, predicting upcoming congestion and regulating traffic, ensuring a smooth flow of traffic. If there is potential for congestion, it will take a driver a hell of lot longer to cross town with first approach than it will with the second.

Umm, don't get me wrong here, but I think you've been fed a less-than- accurate sales pitch. Let's ponder this for a minute. The device works by delaying ACKs... that is: packets with the ACK flag set, right? ... [letting this sink in for a while] ... Yes, all packets in an established TCP connection have the ACK flag set. So all packets except SYNs are candidates for delay when traffic limits are exceeded? Whoops. Okay, let's assume for a second that the packets aren't actually delayed, but that the ACK sequence numbers or TCP window size fields are re-written (dicey). All you've accomplished is move the queueing (delaying) from the traffic shaper to the endpoints. You still get L7-to-L7 delays. Big deal if it happens on the wire or in the stack. Also, convincing endpoints to do delays probably results in less-than-perfect shaping since stack retransmit timings suddenly affect the actual bandwidth available rather than having the shaper itself do it; the shaper knows exactly when there is bandwidth available. But this doesn't even begin to touch on other protocols like UDP or ICMP. Or, for that matter, IPsec/GRE/whatever tunneled traffic. Neither of them have sequence numbers or window sizes that you can manipulate. So, I'm forced to conclude that the PacketShaper either sucks in a major way, or that your explanation/the explanation that you have been given of it is wrong. (Sorry.) What I think happens is that the delay is Subject: FW: disable some sites Date: Thu, 25 Jul 2002 13:44:18 +0200 The list addy changed ofcourse :o) > -----Original Message----- > From: Hiemstra, Brenno > Sent: donderdag 25 juli 2002 12:27 > To: 'Michael Zhao'; Hiemstra, Brenno > Cc: firewalls@lists.gnac.net > Subject: RE: disable some sites > > Michael, > > If I was in your shoes I would first investigate if there > is a security policy in your organisation.

You're missing the NEW state. The initial SYN packet will not match with either of the first two rules. It should match the third if it's inbound, though. > So far, I am unable to show that it's working correctly...

You need to insert those logging rules above any ACCEPT, REJECT or DENY rules for them to be of any use. Are you sure the packets are hitting the box at all? Try moving the log rules to the top of the FORWARD chain, introduce logging rules to the PREROUTING, POSTROUTING, INPUT and OUTPUT chains, and/or use tcpdump as well to see where the packets are travelling.

Crew, We're going to play good letter writer / bad letter writer. Kind of like good cop / bad cop. If your last name ends in A-C, J-L, P-S, I want you to write a "nice" letter, sympathetic to parents who've lost their children to suicide and hopeful that parents will love their children and protect them from evil "mental health" intrusions into their lives. Tone level = 2.5 and above. If your last name ends in D-I, M-R, or T-Z, I want you to write a brutal nasty letter about this politician who messed up with his own child, resulting in the child's suicide and now wants everyone to repeat his mistakes (turning over his kid to psychiatry). Write it in any tone level you want as long as it's 2.0 or below. And if you just can't manage to write it in the assigned tone, no sweat, write it the other way. Here's the assignment: 1. Read the article from today's Washington Post. Link = 685.html NOTE - YOU HAVE TO REGISTER TO READ IT ONLINE. IT'S FREE BUT ANNOYING. The text is down below. 2. Write your letter to the editor and send it to letters@washpost.com. Follow the above guidelines but throw in any of the usual true lines we need to promote - "no science to psychiatry", "psych drug dangers", "psych diagnoses are subjective and arbitrary". 3. Report compliance by email. Thank you, Doyle ______________________________ ARTICLE TEXT: The Washington Post May 5, 2006 Friday Final Edition SECTION: A Section; A17 , WASHINGTON BOOKSHELF LENGTH: 927 words HEADLINE: Out of a Son's Suicide, a New Mission BYLINE: Charles Babington, Washington Post Staff Writer BODY: REMEMBERING GARRETT One Family's Battle With a Child's Depression By Gordon H. Smith Carroll & Graf, 208 pages Sen. Gordon H. Smith faced a fundamental choice after his son committed suicide in 2003, the day before his 22nd birthday. He could end his political career and live out his years in an agony of "what ifs" and "whys." Or he could rededicate his professional life and powerful position to trying to make something positive come from the tragedy. Staggered by grief, the Oregon Republican and devout Mormon seriously weighed the first option. But a church leader persuaded him to mourn his son and then "get back to work." Part of that work is a new book on a subject that cannot get too much attention: a plea for Americans to learn more about depression and suicide, and to confront mental illness openly, without embarrassment or prejudice. "Remembering Garrett" is a straightforward, simply written account of one child's descent into despair and the nearly unbearable heartbreak his family endures. Famous or powerful people can do more than suffer in private, however, and Smith has chosen to try, as he puts it, "to bring suicide's brutal toll and mental health's subordinate status out of the shadows. The shame and stigma our society feels about mental health must stop, and our national conversation needs to begin." Garrett Lee Smith was the second of three children adopted, through church connections, by Gordon and Sharon Smith after years of trying to conceive. The book's early chapters could be dismissed as heartfelt but trite accounts of domestic bliss (Smith likens his family life to "a Norman Rockwell painting"), were the reader not aware of what is to come. We are told how much Garrett smiled, frolicked on camping trips and doted on his siblings. But his father also weaves in scenes that, in retrospect, hinted at the approaching storm and the parents' growing sense of helplessness. Garrett struggled with dyslexia and other learning disabilities, and once burst into tears when he couldn't match his 5-year-old brother in naming the 12 months in order. " 'I can't keep them straight, and I'm seven years older,' he cried. His face was full of sorrow and self-loathing," writes Smith, who wondered whether his time-consuming "pursuit and service in public office was hurting Garrett." Local doctors did not diagnose depression when they treated Garrett after he was arrested for drunkenness as a high school junior. But a year later, applying for a two-year Mormon missionary assignment, Garrett stated that he suffered depression (and later told his parents he had since age 10). He salvaged his mission by assuring adults that he "could handle his mood swings." "I was stunned by his self-diagnosis of depression," Smith writes. "I didn't want to believe it and, like so many in our society, I didn't understand it." Garrett's two-year mission to England was a success, but his mental state rapidly deteriorated when he returned and started college in Utah. In February 2003, he agreed to see a psychiatrist and take antidepressants, although the book does not specify which ones, and Smith questions whether his son actually took them. By September, Garrett stopped answering his phone and, on a Sunday night, he swallowed a fistful of sleeping pills and hanged himself in his closet. Throughout the book, Smith takes care to blame no one, except perhaps himself, for misdiagnosing Garrett's condition or missing possible warning signs. His only ire is aimed at several unnamed House Republicans who complicated his bid to enact legislation intended to combat youth depression and suicide. Other senators previously drafted two bills, but they rolled them into one, named it the Garrett Lee Smith Memorial Act, and let Smith take the lead in pushing it. It called for federally funded screening of school-age children "to detect those predisposed to depression and suicide," and for funds to combat suicide at colleges. The Senate unanimously approved the legislation, but some House conservatives objected. Smith tried to address their concerns, but writes that he was "appalled by some of their responses. " 'Your bill has Democrat sponsors!' said one. 'We don't pass bills over here that Democrats want!' " The House approved the bill only after several changes were made, including a provision that permits the school screening only for children whose parents request it. One wishes Smith had named names. Plausible arguments can be made for and against federal spending for mental health screening and intervention. But to attack or push a bill in order to hurt the other political party is all too typical of the partisanship that poisons today's Congress, and Smith's account of his House negotiations adds a bitter note to a book already replete with heartache. Perhaps the book's most useful section is a 13-page appendix on resources, including Web addresses for groups dealing with depression, mental illness and suicide. Two examples are the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (www.afsp.org) and the Columbia University TeenScreen Program (www.teenscreen.org). Smith, generally labeled a moderate Republican, says he gave modest thought to such issues before his son's death. But now, he writes, "my heart has softened," and he proudly notes that he has defied GOP leaders by opposing cuts to Medicaid, food stamps "and other safety-net programs that serve the underprivileged." Whatever one thinks of his political reawakening, none can dispute that the price was unspeakable. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

They published the last article in their series today. Predictably it's a money grab for more psych programs. I need everyone to write a letter on this one as soon as you read this, especially those who did not write to Deseret News earlier this week. Here's the article (text at bottom): Send your letter to letters@desnews.com. If your last name ends in A-C, J-M or T-U, send copies to lucy@desnews.com and romboy@desnews.com. Write whatever you want but I suggest attacking the fact that this is just a blatant money grab, that there is no science proving that any of these psych solutions prevent suicide, and that talking about it may cause suicide. Also you can bring in the matter of the drugs - if someone is identified and referred for help they are going to get a drug that is labeled by the FDA for its tendency to CAUSE suicide. If you want to, attack the fact that NAMI, funded to the tune of millions by drug companies, is featured prominently in the article. I'm counting on you to pile lots of letters on their desks today! Best, Doyle _________________ ARTICLE TEXT: Activists offer help, hope: But programs struggle to find funding and support By Dennis Romboy and Lucinda Dillon Kinkead Deseret Morning News The mantra for Utahns dedicated to finding ways to keep children from killing themselves is: Suicide is not an option. Yet despite their best efforts, young people will take their own lives. "I'm an expert in teen suicide," said Doug Gray, a University of Utah child psychiatrist. "Not every suicide is preventable, but most of them are." Gray is among a handful of people who devote much of their off time looking for answers to the state's suicide riddle. Utah loses at least three teenagers to suicide every month and one person of any age every 30 hours. The state's suicide rate consistently hovers among the 10 highest in the nation and has exceeded the U.S. rate for two decades. But prevention efforts are inconsistent at best. Promising programs fall to the wayside for lack of funding. Task forces form with a slew of good ideas that eventually fizzle. Sherri Wittwer spends her day as an advocate for mentally ill people, one of the most misunderstood segments of society. Many of them have suicidal tendencies. "People say to me all the time, 'How do you do that?' It's because there is hope. Treatment is available. Recovery is possible. We see it," said the executive director of the Utah chapter of the National Alliance for the Mentally Ill. Image Keith Johnson, Deseret Morning News Timpview High students participate in a Hope Squad that administrators credit with having prevented two or three suicide attempts. Above, atop lockers, are Matt Thatcher and Brenna Woolstehulme. Standing are Hayley Brady, Mary Holmes, Kevin Kemp, Allison Bennett, Raven Alard and Tanner Perry. And atop lockers in back are Paige Crosland and Chelsie Osborn. They are trained to talk to struggling classmates. "I think hope is the answer." Those who think about ending their lives often don't see light at the end of the tunnel. And those around them — friends, parents, teachers — don't know the warning signs or how to react if they do. "It's too late when you're reactive," said Greg Hudnall, executive director of the Hope Task Force. "You're already losing kids." Some high schools and junior high schools have taken a proactive approach. The Utah chapter of the National Alliance for the Mentally Ill started a school-based suicide prevention program after what Wittwer called a "rash" of suicides at East High School six years ago. Called Hope for Tomorrow, the program has reached 55,000 students in 55 junior and senior high schools statewide. Preliminary results of a study to measure its effectiveness show referrals to counselors or other adults is up as a result, Gray said. One of the biggest problems with past prevention programs is that they didn't link people to help. Programs also need to be aimed at the most at-risk population. "People who are getting help don't suicide," he said. An alarming suicide rate in Wisconsin prompted its state legislature to require public schools to teach suicide prevention. Suicide risk is usually underestimated, said John Hisgen, a Wisconsin health and physical activity consultant. "We tend to believe people will not go to that extreme to end their lives," he said Hisgen and several teachers developed educational strategies that have become a national model. The program teaches students to acknowledge, care and tell an adult when a friend or peer is hurting emotionally. Only in recent months has there been a renewed interest to address Utah's suicide problem. Attorney General Mark Shurtleff brought in an out-of-state organization last fall to provide awareness and education. The state Division of Substance Abuse and Mental Health has made suicide prevention a higher priority, which reflects a new emphasis at the federal level. "Suicide right now seems to be a hot topic," said Ron Stromberg, state mental health director. Other than a resolution in 1999 that resulted in a youth suicide task force, state lawmakers have done little to address what the health department 10 years ago deemed an epidemic. A bill in the 2006 Legislature calling for another task force died after unwieldy amendments were added to it. Those who have worked on prevention and awareness the past decade or so say the time for talking is past. "It's a waste of time to create another task force," Gray said. "We've talked enough. We need to do." Yet there will be more talking. The state Division of Substance Abuse and Mental Health recently contracted with NAMI to coordinate and oversee a task force that will develop a statewide suicide prevention plan. Despite his desire to do rather than talk, Gray will be part of it as will other longtime advocates for suicide awareness and intervention. Wittwer says the group will not attempt to reinvent the wheel but use the knowledge it has gained over the years to progress. "We have that in common. We are impatient, and we need to move on," she said. "We are all about implementation and moving on to focus on solutions." Mental health division director Stromberg has $33,000 in federal grant money for the task force to work on a plan, but he's not sure if the state will have funds to put it into practice when the plan is completed early next year. "Will there be money to do this? I don't know," he said. Money has and will continue to be a hang up. The Bryner Clinic in Salt Lake City received a private grant to screen children for mental health problems when they come in for checkups or with runny noses. Pediatricians work with psychiatrists and psychologists to assess a child's overall health. Image Keith Johnson, Deseret Morning News Timpview counselor Monte Marshall and social worker Wendi Christensen help guide the high school's Hope Squad that works at preventing suicides. Even though it's a team approach that works, Gray said, it won't last indefinitely. "The difficulty is if the grant runs out, the program disappears," he said. Hudnall, the Provo School District student services director, organized the Hope Task Force seven years ago because he could no longer bear to see rescue teams pluck stranded youngsters from a mountain, while suicidal teens' cries for help went unheeded. "We decided to build this statewide program, and we're doing it with nickels and pennies," he said. "It's just a group of people that got together and said, 'How can we help each other?' " Gray wonders what might happen if those volunteers burn out or get sick. "How many years can you ask someone to use their vacation days to keep a project going?" he said. "Why not look at government agencies to get them some level of funding to keep them going?" So far, the Hope Task Force has been one of the most active prevention and awareness groups in Utah. It also has the only "post-vention" team in the state, which helps communities and schools deal with the aftermath of a suicide. It has made presentations throughout Utah and has received calls from Nevada, Wyoming, Colorado and the Dakotas. The Provo School District goes so far as to compile annual statistics for suicide attempts, hospitalizations and completions. It's the only district in the state that does so. "We want to monitor concerns (to see) whether the problem is getting larger," Hudnall said. "We want to track exactly what's going on." Provo schools also take an active role in suicide awareness. Timpview High School empowers students to help classmates who have contemplated taking their lives. At the first of the school year, social worker Wendi Christensen and guidance counselor Monte Marshall survey students to see who among their peers they would turn to for advice. The top 25 or 30 names are invited to join the Hope Squad. "We're just kind of there for the students," said senior Emily Gillespie, a three-year member and president of the squad. Team members are trained to talk to classmates who struggle emotionally. They also refer them to Christensen or a guidance counselor. They are not afraid to ask students if they have thought about suicide. "It's usually a relief for them," Christensen said. Timpview administrators figure the program has headed off at least two or three suicide attempts. Photo Deseret Morning News graphic "It helps them to know there are people out there that can assist them. Sometimes they forget that," Christensen said. "(Suicide) is something we can prevent. We just have to let them know there are other options when they want to escape, want a way out." Principal George Bayles said the school is trying to break down the notion that you can't "narc" on friends who talk about suicide. Two Timpview students have taken their own lives the past three years. "The reason we do it is to be proactive, not because we're having a real problem with it," Bayles said. The Hope Squad sponsors a suicide prevention walk, presents an awareness video and sets up an information booth during the school year. The video is part of NAMI's Hope for Tomorrow program. "It didn't aggrandize suicide," he said. "It didn't promote the thought that this is the way I can get some attention." Still, he has parents object to talking about suicide in school. When people complain, Bayles says to them, "Why don't you go tell that boy's mother we spent too much time" on suicide prevention. "One life makes it worth it." Timpview is one of the few schools in Utah that talks openly about suicide. Bayles said he doesn't understand why schools aren't willing to address it. "If they haven't had one (suicide), they're going to. I guarantee you they have kids who are thinking about it or who have tried it. . . . I don't know how you can not do anything." Shurtleff shares the feeling. The topic of suicide came to his attention during a national attorneys general meeting two years ago. His counterpart in Tennessee talked about the issue and his involvement with a Nashville-based prevention group called the Jason Foundation. The speech hit him hard because before leaving for the conference his own son said he wanted to kill himself. Shurtleff's response was, "Oh, come on. Don't be silly." Those words came back to haunt him, and he immediately walked out to call his son. He apologized and promised they would talk when he came home. "I thought how awful. I can't believe I said those things. They could really be hurting. How could that make him feel?" The more Shurtleff learned about suicide, the more he became an advocate for prevention and awareness. He doesn't mind using his position to get the word out, even if it's uncomfortable for Utahns. "It is a taboo subject. They don't want to talk about it. It's an 'all is well in Zion' type of thing," he said. "We need to do something with the stigma." Last November, Shurtleff brought the Jason Foundation to Utah. Thirty-three attorneys general are now associated with the prevention program. "A lot of them see it as a charge for the protection of youth in their state," said Clark Flatt, who founded the organization in Hendersonville, Tenn. There were some raised eyebrows among the state's suicide prevention fraternity when Shurtleff introduced the Jason Foundation. They didn't see the need to bring in an outside organization. Flatt said it isn't his intent to tread on current efforts in the state because good local and regional resources already exist. He's looking more for collaboration. "It's too big a problem for one organization," said Flatt, whose 16-year-old son, Jason, shot himself in 1997. "Our main mission is to get people to do something." Photo Deseret Morning News graphic One thing the Jason Foundation has going for it is money and national affiliations. The American Football Coaches Association backs the foundation, and local college coaches agreed to do public service announcements about suicide prevention. The foundation offers free training to teenagers, parents and educators. It has a school-based curriculum for students, in-service presentations for teachers and seminars for parents. Clear warning signs precede 80 percent of suicides, according to the American Psychiatric Association. "They key is learning how to recognize those signs and knowing what to do when you see them," Flatt said. Failing to act can have dire consequences. "Sometimes," he said, "that hesitation is lethal."

Dear all, It could be viewed that using n-1 for 9 models where we used n-1 for five models before is an implicit change in the stringency of our criterion. When we had five models, agreement (0/5, 1/5, 4/5 or 5/5) could be expected 37% of the time just by chance (ignoring the near zero case). With nine models the equivalent figure for n-1 is only 3.5%, and it is still much lower for n-2 (18%)... (assuming that my somewhat rusty probability calculations are correct). It really depends on what we had understood the purpose of the criterion to be. I am not certain how much this was discussed. Also, I would prefer Friday night as well if it means that more information will be available.

Dear Steven, Would prefer to keep them where they are as all those concurrent with the existing US date have good holidays to take advantage of and those that are later are there for Halloween/All Saints. A couple have Jungle Book against them but I think we are stronger. The one that might benefit from 9/18 is Romania which did huge business last time around. That is the back to school week which is traditionally very good and kids get out early from classes most of the weekdays. Current date 10/23 leads nicely in to Halloween as we did last time but if we did move up that would also be a great date for Goosebumps.

For Immediate Release May 9, 2016 Senate Majority Leader Weinberg Issues Statement on Governor Christie's Elevated Role in the Donald Trump Campaign Trenton- Senate Majority Leader Loretta Weinberg released the following statement in response to the announcement that Governor Christie would serve as transition chair in a hypothetical Trump administration: "Despite suspending his failed presidential campaign, it appears that our governor will continue to travel around the country at the expense of New Jersey taxpayers focused on anything and everything but the job he was actually elected to do. I am calling on Governor Christie to disclose how much his travel will cost our state. Not only is he currently drawing a taxpayer salary for a job he does not do, he has the audacity to make us to foot the bill for his self-serving political agenda." ###

Attached is the revised calendar for the completion of the 2002 Plan. As you will note, the dates have been moved up approximately 2 weeks in most cases. This is a result of the recent management changes and executive availability. A couple of notes on the dates: -Please note that dates for assessments apply to ALL BUSINESS UNITS who will be senders of costs. -The October 18th due date for the Presentation Pages: I will provide more information at a later date on this. -The dates highlighted in yellow are not 2002 Plan related, but merely a reminder of other significant items that will be occurring in this time frame. Also included in the file FYI is the PROPOSED schedule for the Plan/Executive Business Reviews with the Office of the Chairman. These are still subject to change. Rick Causey's office (Sharron Westbrook) is coordinating the schedules of the applicable attendees. I will let you know when these are final. Additionally, the Plan will be submitted to Corporate in the traditional format, Excel files. We will be sending the templates out on (or by) September 20, as reflected in the revised calendar. However, our strategy is still to enter 2002 with the full plan ( I/S, B/S, Cash Flow) loaded into Adaytum and to utilize Adaytum going forward from that point. Therefore, we will be enhancing the Excel files to include the level of detail that will be loaded into Adaytum, so there will be additional lines and/or supplemental schedules added to the files. One more thing - please communicate all of this information to the appropriate individuals in your business unit/group. If you have any questions, please give me a call. Thanks, Steve


Phil, Why is there so much missing data for the South Pole? The period Jan 75 thru Dec 90 is all missing except Dec 81, July & Dec 85, Apr 87, Apr & Sept 88, Apr 89. Also, from and including Aug 2003 is missing. Also -- more seriously but correctable. The S Pole is just represented by a single box at 87.5S (N Pole ditto I suspect). This screws up area averaging. It would be better to put the S Pole value in ALL boxes at 87.5S. I have had to do this in my code -- but you really should fix the 'raw' gridded data. For area averages, the difference is between having the S Pole represent the whole region south of 85S, and having (as now) it represent one 72nd of this region. It is pretty obvious to me what is better. This affects the impression of missing data too of course. Tom.

3. Use of simple climate models 3.1 Simple models used only as tools for extrapolationg/interpolationg GCM results to estimate the effect of different scenarios or sensitivities? 1-D UD/EBMs (upwelling-diffusion energy balance models), such as the Wigley and Raper (1992) model updated in Raper et al. (1996), in my opinion, come into this category. I along with Jonathan Gregory and Tim Osborn have completed a very detailed comparison of this and several alternative 1-D models with HadCM2 results. With the addition of a sea ice parameter the Raper et al. model reproduces well the HadCM2 results for global mean surface temperature and thermal expansion out to 2100, for several scenarios. However, the distinction between 3.1 and 3.2 below is not clearcut. By the end of the 900 year 2xCO2 experiment the thermal expansion for the HadCM2 model is nearly 5 times larger than that simulated by the fitted (over 1860-2100) UD/EBM, and unlike the UD/EBM shows no sign of coming to equilibrium. In our analysis we conclude that it is not immediately obvious which if either model is correct. The difference serves to highlight the uncertainty in the thermal expansion commitment. Incidently a fitted pure diffusion/EBM gives good simulation of the HadCM2 results in both the short and long term. 3.2 Simple models used to offer independent climate predictions? It would probably be difficult to use 2+D models for 3.1, so they may belong here. I think, 3.1 and 3.2 serve different purposes. Both may be desirable. 3.3 Depending on the answers to 3.1 and 3.2...... Whichever 3.1, 3.2 or both is adopted the results and the attendant simple model versus A/OGCM comparisons should be given in the projections chapter. A selection of the results should then carry over to the sea level chapter. This consistency is very important. It is a separate question as to whether the simple climate model results should subsequently be used as scaling factors for regional scenario development in the scenario chapter. 3.4 How many simple climate models are needed... For 3.1 in order to fit the A/OGCM results extensive comparisons using alternative parameter values/models (for example, UD versus pure diffusion) will be necessary. As well as my HadCM2 comparison mentioned above a comparison with ECHAM3/LSG results is also well underway. In both cases the work shows that it is advisable to calculate the effective climate sensitivity of the A/OGCMs for use in the simple model. We found that the effective climate sensitivity is non-constant but apparantly varies with the surface temperature in these models. For this calculation and for comprehensive model comparisons a specific list of A/OGCM output is required. This includes decade ocean mean temperature profiles, a measure of the strength of the thermohaline circulation, the A/OGCM forcing change for 2xCO2 etc. I am keen to continue these comparisons specifically as input to the new IPCC assessments. Unfortunately, and I think mistakenly, the US DOE have recently decided to discontinue this line of research. An endorsement of the need for this work by the IPCC would help my attempts to acquire funding elsewhere. For 3.2 there would be no need of tuning to A/OGCM results and many model results could be used to give a range. This would serve a different purpose to 3.1 where A/OGCM results are interpolated/extrapolated for different sensitivities and forcings. --------------------------- | Dr S. C. B.
