Jonathan Harvey (1939-2012)

Composer of works including ‘Wagner Dream’ dies aged 73

Jonathan HarveyThe British composer Jonathan Harvey has died at the age of 73 after suffering from motor neurone disease.

Harvey’s best known works include Mortuos Plango, Vivos Voco, an electronic piece using the sound of the bells of Winchester Cathedral and a boy treble, and Wagner Dream, an opera imagining the last moments of Wagner’s life.

The composer was born in Sutton Coldfield in 1939 and became a chorister at St Michael’s College in Tenbury, Worcestershire. It was here that he decided to be a composer, when he heard an organ voluntary after evensong. ‘Usually these voluntaries were real milk-and-water affairs,' he later recalled, 'but one day the organist did something really wild, which was thrilling. I knew in that moment that I wanted to be a composer, and do something similar.’

Later, he studied music at St John’s College, Cambridge and, privately, with Erwin Stein and Hans Keller. Alongside his work as a composer, Harvey was also an eminent member of the academic music world, holding posts at Southampton University, Sussex University and Stanford University, California.

His music was influenced by the work of Stockhausen and Harvey was also one of the first composers to use Ircam, Pierre Boulez’s Paris-based musical research institute, as he composed Mortuos Plango, Vivos Voco. Another strong influence in Harvey’s writing was eastern philosophy. He practiced Buddhist-inspired meditation and his music drew on oriental-style melodies.

The opera Wagner Dream imagines the final moments of Wagner’s life: Vairochana, a guide, appears to the composer and helps him great his long-cherished Buddhist dream. The critic Christopher Dingle said of the work: ‘In lesser hands the result could be crass, but this compelling triumph succinctly captures something of Wagner’s complexity of character, while looking beyond.’

In January 2012 the Barbican devoted one of its ‘Total Immersion’ weekends to his music and his work Weltethos was performed by the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra as part of the Cultural Olympiad.

'With the death of Jonathan Harvey we have lost a hugely important figure in classical music,' says Roger Wright, controller of Radio 3. 'His was a powerfully original music which rightly received international acclaim.  His gentle spirit and inner strength impressed me greatly and he will be much missed.'

He is survived by his wife, Rosaleen and their two children, Anna and Dominic.

Business-friendly Ohio EPA chief admits states' attention to climate change was a factor in his dirty-air rebellion

As noted earlier Scott Nally, head of the Ohio state EPA (whose very name he tried and failed to change)is leading a rebellion of mainly coal states against the NACAA association ( ) that has long and successfully represented state and local air agencies in DC.

We wondered -- given Nally's ties to big coal polluters -- if NACAA's involvement in the climate change isssue was a factor in this dirty-air rebellion. Now there is evidence this is the case.

In a recent report in Congressional Quarterly (excerpted below), Nally cites the climate change issue as a prime reason he is leading this rebellion.

Well, a federal appeals court verified this week that climate change was indeed covered by the Clean Air Act. It eviscerated the arguments of the coal polluters. Does that mean Nally will back down -- or continue doing the bidding of big coal players such as American Electric Power?

** [from Congressional Quarterly]

A Huff Over Clean Air Split By Shawn Zeller», CQ Staff

The National Association of Clean Air Agencies, a trade group for state and local air quality agencies, faces an internal revolt over its Washington lobbying on environmental matters. Ohio Environmental Protection Agency Director Scott Nally says he plans to launch a group by this fall that will eschew lobbying to focus only on giving technical assistance to state and local agencies on how to comply with EPA rules.

Nally, whose state relies more than any other on coal-fired power plants, objects to lobbying stands that the clean air association has taken. For example, he points out its support for 2009 legislation that would have created a cap-and-trade program to combat climate change, and he says it’s not right for the group to take positions on which many of its members disagree...

Environmental groups, though, criticize Nally. “This reflects the broader national pattern of things breaking down on partisan lines,” says Frank O’Donnell, president of the environmental advocacy group Clean Air Watch. The association, he says, “is working to make something happen on climate change. In certain quarters, that’s considered heresy.”

US Dollar weakness finally offers Canadian car purchasers a break

    Toyota Canada lowers MSRP on 16 Toyota and Lexus vehicles.

    [xfloat=left][/xfloat]Wayne Gerdes - CleanMPG - Feb. 1, 2008

    2008 Canadian Toyota Yaris 5-door hatch - With a $1,000 ecoAUTO rebate and a new lower MSRP, this fuel miser is more attractive than ever!

    TORONTO – Toyota of Canada has turned a new leaf with an announcement that the average Canadian new car purchaser will see lower automobile sticker prices. Although the company line is said to deliver a better value to Canadian drivers, this announcement comes on the heels of an ultra strong Canadian Dollar which reached parity to the $USD for the first time in history late last summer.

    Toyota Canada reduced the MSRP on more than a dozen vehicles in their lineup to benefit not just the average new car compact buyer but also those who may be considering a model from the Lexus lineup, Toyota’s upscale luxury brand. Toyota’s move lowers the MSRP across the majority of the company’s fleet of 2008 models starting with the Toyota Yaris with its $750 MSRP reduction all the way to the slow selling Lexus GX with an astounding $8,100 drop in MSRP*.

    “We have always monitored the Canadian market and taken action accordingly,” noted Stephen Beatty, Managing Director of Toyota Canada Inc. “Now, we’re pleased to take these further steps. These MSRP reductions are transparent and consistent, making it easier for customers to make informed purchasing decisions. They also benefit customers, whether they are leasing, financing or purchasing their vehicle with cash.”

    When the Canadian dollars value surged in the late summer of 2007, Toyota was one of the first automakers to take meaningful action for the benefit of the Canadian new car purchaser. The company reacted to the currency driven market distortion by offering a mix of price adjustments, gas gift cards, cash rebates, maintenance offers and attractive lease and financing rates.

    Toyota Canada is now converting these incentives into clear, consistent price reductions across the board for their customers.

    * All prices quoted in Canadian Dollars.
    ** The 2009 Lexus RX 350’s lower introductory price of $44,350 reflects a reduction of $7,200 when compared to the 2008 base model.

Preview – Sony Xperia S

Preview – Sony Xperia S
Goodbye Ericsson
Having successfully gobbled up the Sony Ericsson brand, the uniquely crafted Xperia S is the first mobile to sport the coveted Sony logo. And speaking entirely superficially for a moment, it makes the world of difference. Synonymous with high calibre electronics, there are certainly worse fates than stamping the characters S-O-N-Y on your Smartphone’s forehead!

Thankfully the Xperia S has more than branding in its favour. The transparent antenna bisecting its base is not only distinguishes it from the competition, but is also pretty slick. Especially as it lights up and doubles as the home input.

Complimenting the distinctive design is the 4.3” Full HD Reality Display. This monster offers crisp visuals and 720p playback and recording. The rear mounted 12mp camera is no slouch either, sporting a single second sleep-to-shoot fast capture option, while its coveted Exmar R Camera Sensor should de-gloomify even the dankest of shots.

Predictably, the first Sony branded Smartphone gifts users with instant access to the SEN. Sony’s network of multi-media contributions includes Video Unlimited, Music Unlimited and the artist formerly known as PSN. The Xperia S is also Playstation Certified. In case you like games. And who doesn’t?!

Though the Xperia S’ LED-backlit LCD, capacitive display should satisfy even the most ravenous mediaphiles, its convenient HDMI connection can instantly link and launch the Xperia S on adjacent tablets, PCs or Televisions, allowing users to enjoy their preferred tracks and videos on larger mediums.

And yes, you can play Crash Bandicoot on you 54” LED telly* if you so choose!

*They is just the small matter of acquiring one first...

Concert Review Justin Adams in Milwaukee

Potawatomi Hotel and Casino is set in the heart of downtown Milwaukee, WI and hosts numerous free concerts at the Fire Pit Side Bar. This past Friday, May 8th it brought some amazing Nashville talent. Justin Adams a Bixby, Oklahoma native who’s got the songwriting skills of many greats that have come before him, and the power to draw everyone in with a performance filled with incredible vocals and a high-energy performance. I’ve followed the career of Justin Adams since his name was first made known on Itunes and in the first week his EP landed in the Top 4. There’s absolutely not a doubt in my mind why it shouldn’t have. One of the most incredible songs on his EP is, Miss Me Whiskey. Thats the song that had me hooked on Justin Adams from the very beginning. It’s not only the lyrics of the song but the depth and range in his voice that alone could leave a cowgirl feeling tipsy.

Justin Adams country music

I’ve seen him go from opening up for Jamie Lynn Spears at Joe’s Bar and performing a half hour or so set to a performance like this where he killed every single minute of over an hour and a half performance. His set was mixed with some of his favorites off of his EP, and about 6 new songs he’s written with some of the other talented Nashville songwriters. What I found to be the highlight of the night was the way Justin owned the stage and took it with much confidence and perfection as he covered some of his favorite country songs by artists such as Keith Urban, Eric Church, and my favorite covers he kills are from Garth Brooks. I cannot tell you how proud I am to see this guys career take off full speed. Absolutely ecstatic about this guys career in country music because it is truly where he belongs.

So proud of him as he recently signed a publishing deal with UMPG Nashville. Couldn’t happen to a more talented, down to earth, sweet, and humble guy. This is only the beginning of a long career for Justin Adams. Can’t wait to see him grace many more stages and draw others in with an amazing song he wrote, the passion to perform, or capture hearts with all around true artistry. Be sure to pick up his EP, and wear it out because it kind of gets stuck on repeat from first listen. If you get a chance, check out a performance and I promise you there will be no disappointment whatsoever.

Keep Calm and Carry On in India's Slumping Car Market

india ford recall--2138833076_v2.jpg
Manish Swarup

Don't tell Hironori Kanayama that investing almost $500 million in a market enduring its worst slump for 12 years is a questionable business decision. Honda Motors' India head sees only one way forward: Keep calm and carry on.

Global carmakers such as General Motors and Volkswagen that have between them poured billions of dollars into factories, product development and marketing in India's once-booming car market are now struggling as slow economic growth, high interest rates and rising fuel prices keep their target customers from parting with their cash.

Still, automakers like Honda say they can only grit their teeth and continue to invest - or risk missing out on what experts expect to be the world's third-biggest car market by 2020 and a foothold in an emerging global small-car export hub.

"If there was any worry, we would never have done this," Kanayama said in an interview in Mumbai. "Of course it's a pity that the economy is sluggish, but it doesn't worry us at all."

(Read More: Tough Road Ahead for India Carmakers as Boom Market Crashes)

Honda said on April 2 - two days after the end of the worst financial year for Indian car sales since 2001 - that it was spending 25 billion rupees ($460 million) to double its output capacity in the country to 240,000 cars per year by 2014.

"The potential is very high here," Kanayama said. "Our investment is based on such long-term projections."

Honda is not alone in appearing to be throwing good money after bad in India's sagging automotive market.

Ford Motors is spending $1 billion on a new factory even as its current plant runs at only 60 percent of capacity. Maruti Suzuki India, controlled by Japan's Suzuki Motors, is spending around $750 million to add 250,000 cars annually.

Carmakers say India's huge population, low car penetration and rising incomes mean sales can only go up in the long run, while the opportunity to export to Africa and the Middle East makes for a compelling investment case.

Sales fell 7 percent in the last fiscal year.

"Clearly we believe the macro conditions are a short-term blip," said Nagesh Basavanahalli, managing director of Fiat and its Chrysler unit in India.

(Read More: India's Chidambaram Sees 8% Growth by 2015)

Basavanahalli, who took the reins at the Italian and U.S. carmakers this month, has been tasked with trying to re-launch the Fiat brand and introduce its Jeep and Abarth lines in India even as well-established names like India's own Tata Motors see sales plummet.

"Are there challenges? Yes. But are we very confident based on the product plan that we have and based on the actions we are taking? ... Absolutely yes," he said.

Not everyone is convinced.

France's Peugeot last year shelved a 600 million euro ($787.80 million) plan to build a factory in India, and a senior executive at an Asian automaker not present in India told Reuters last month that the company did not think the potential returns on setting up a factory were large enough.

Glimmer Among Gloom

Importantly, Honda's investment is not just in capacity.

The Japanese carmaker launched a new sedan model last week and, like others, is in the process of adding diesel options across its range as it races against global rivals to tap market segments that are still growing as overall demand falls.

Government subsidies make diesel cheaper than petrol.

Customers hit hardest by the economic gloom have been first-time buyers and the emerging middle class which relies on bank loans for big purchases, analysts say, with sales of small cars - which account for over 70 percent of the market - falling by around 10 percent.

(Read More: India Industry Output Posts Weak Growth in February)

By contrast, demand for sports utility vehicles (SUVs) and mid-level diesel cars has risen, with models such as Maruti Suzuki's diesel Dzire and Renault's low-cost Duster SUV helping their companies outperform rivals. Honda's new Amaze sedan, which starts at 500,000 rupees ($9,200), is in a segment where sales were up 21 percent last financial year.

Ford, Fiat-Chrysler, Maruti and Honda are all lining up to launch new compact SUVs.

The firms which lack models in the growth segments are suffering most.

Volkswagen, whose Indian failings are a blot on its global success, built 66,699 cars in the country in the last financial year - equivalent to no more than 31 percent of capacity, according to a report by Kotak Securities.

General Motors' Indian unit, whose sales fell 20 percent in the last financial year, lost 7.46 billion rupees ($137 million) in the financial year ended March 2012.

Some of GM's rivals are working to increase exports from their less-than-stretched Indian production lines to offset the local slump. Volkswagen nearly tripled exports from India last year and Ford now exports almost a third of its Indian cars.

(Read More: Is India's Inflation Headache Finally Over?)

Long-term estimates vary, but almost all industry analysts expect India's annual car sales to hit 6 million by 2020, when it will trail only China and the United States. The Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM), the industry's primary lobby group, has estimated sales of 9 million by then.

Optimists cite a young, fast-urbanizing population, rising incomes and an expected rebound in the country's economic growth, in addition to paltry ownership levels of around 12 cars per 1,000 people, according to SIAM, about a quarter of China's.

"The entire structural story of India's car potential still holds true, despite the current cyclical downturn," said Jinesh Gandhi, automotive equities analysts at brokerage Motilal Oswal in Mumbai.

"I would clearly invest in new capacities for the future rather than wait for the market to turn around."

Mark Cuban: American Idol

When it comes to stocks, Cramer’s an authority in the field. So it’s no small compliment to say that Mark Cuban actually beat the Mad Money maven in a stock-picking contest 16 years ago. Since then the Dallas Mavericks owner and HDNet co-founder has focused on some companies of his own, and he might have even more business plans on the horizon.

With that in mind, Cramer wanted to know if Cuban planned on buying the Chicago Cubs, which owner Tribune Co. announced it would sell at the end of the 2007 season. “It’s too early to tell,” the 6-foot-3 dot-com billionaire said. “To make any acquisition in any business, you have to know what you’re buying first, and you don’t buy what’s not for sale. You don’t tell them you’re buying if it’s not for sale – and it’s not for sale until the end of the year,” Cuban said.

“If they want to come to me after the baseball season … I’ll talk,” Cuban said with a mischievous smile.

As for the Dallas Mavericks, “They have been a great investment for me,” Cuban said. “On an annual P&L basis, we’ve done OK, mostly because of the money I have to pay to the commissioner,” Cuban said, joking about the fines he has received for his courtside shenanigans.

Cramer wanted to know if Cuban thought it made sense for a sports team to go public. That depends, Cuban said. “A team like the Cubs or the Yankees, they’re iconic. They have such a broad fan base, it might make some sense. But in terms of just a team like the Mavericks or … the Pacers, it’s tough because winning sometimes is more important than making a dollar.”

Much to Cramer’s chagrin, Cuban had this to say about college kids buying stocks: “For any of you in the audience, the dumbest thing you can do is buy a stock.” The better investment, as far as Cuban is concerned, is in yourself. “What stock do you know better than yourself?” he asked. “You should be willing to do everything that you possibly can to improve your value first.”

If you are going to buy stocks, Cuban said it was important to remember that there’s always someone on the other side of the trade. For every stock that you’re out there buying, there’s somebody that has a reason to sell. “If you have a better reason to buy than they have to sell,” he said, “then you should be doing it. If you don’t, don’t.”

TEHRAN, Iran (CNN) -- Iran's election authority has rejected claims of voting irregularities by a defeated presidential candidate, while acknowledging that the number of ballots cast in dozens of cities exceeded the number of eligible voters there, state-run TV reported Monday.

Protesters face Iranian riot police on a street in Tehran on Saturday.

Iran's Guardian Council -- which approves all candidates running for office and verifies election results -- said candidate Mohsen Rezaie alleged irregularities in 170 cities, and that excessive ballots were found in 50 cities, according to government-funded Press TV.

Council spokesman Abbas-Ali Kadkhodaei said voting in those locations did not noticeably affect the outcome of the election, adding that the council will continue to investigate complaints that are filed through "legal channels," Press TV said. The council declared President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad the winner of the June 12 election.

Rezaie had reported some irregularities and called for a recount of some ballots, while opposition leader Mir Hossein Moussavi and candidate Mehdi Karrubi have rejected the election as fraudulent and demanded a new one.

Earlier Sunday, thousands of riot police and militia lined Tehran's streets as the public rift among Iranian leaders appeared to be widening.

The country's foreign minister disputed allegations of ballot irregularities in Iran's disputed presidential election, and the parliamentary speaker implied the nation's election authorities had sided with one candidate.

Amateur video showed large crowds marching down a major Tehran thoroughfare shouting, "Don't be afraid, we're together!" and "Death to dictator!" The person who shot the video said it was taken Sunday, but CNN could not immediately verify that the protest had taken place.

Eyewitnesses reported a protest also took place at southern Tehran's Azad University, where final exams were postponed after about 200 students refused to take them.

Thousands of riot police and members of the Basij militia lined the streets of the city, according to eyewitnesses. Security personnel surrounded the headquarters of the country's state television and radio. Many shops were closed, and shopkeepers whose stores were open said they planned to close early Sunday. However, no tanks were seen on the city's streets. Traffic was light. Video Watch amateur video of a volunteer paramilitary forces headquarters burning in Tehran »

A statement purportedly from Moussavi on Sunday called on Iranians to "exercise self control" during protests in Tehran, while still supporting their right to demonstrate against the government and the results of the disputed June 12 presidential election.

"The country belongs to you. The revolution and the system is your heritage," the statement attributed to Moussavi said in a statement posted on his Web site. "Protesting against lies and cheating is your right. Be hopeful about regaining your rights. Do not allow anyone who tries to make you lose hope and frighten you make you lose your temper."

The authenticity of the message could not be verified; it was posted in Farsi and translated by CNN.

The message came a day after hospital sources said 19 people were killed in clashes between anti-government protesters and police. Unconfirmed reports put the death toll as high as 150. Photo See images of the clashes Saturday »

"The sad news of the martyrdom of another group who protested the results of the elections has caused our society astonishment and our people mourn them," said the statement attributed to Moussavi. "Firing on people, militarization of the city's atmosphere, threats, agitations and show of force are all the illegitimate children of law breaking and we are facing all of that. It is a wonder that the perpetrators accuse others of breaking the law for expressing their opinions." Video Watch how social-networking sites spread the word on Iranian news »

Police have not been given permission to use firearms in confronting protesters, Tehran Police Chief Azizollah Rajabpour told Iran's semi-official Mehr news agency. Police have not used firearms on the public, he said. Allegations to the contrary are false and "spread by those who want to muddy the waters," the agency reported.

News coverage in Iran has been limited by government restrictions on international journalists. On Sunday, the BBC said Iran had expelled Jon Leyne, the British network's permanent correspondent in Tehran. And Al-Arabiya, a Dubai-based Arab satellite network, said its Tehran bureau was ordered closed.

Press TV confirmed 13 fatalities Saturday, saying the deaths resulted from police clashes with "terrorist groups" in Tehran. But the station did not say whether all the deaths took place Saturday or spanned the length of the weeklong protests. Share images from Iran

Videos posted on social networking Web sites depicted tense scenes and chaos Saturday, and one graphic video that captured the death of a young woman became the iconic symbol of a brutal day. But like most of the information coming out of Tehran, it is impossible to verify her name -- Neda -- or the circumstances of her apparent death. Video Watch a portion of the video »

Press TV also reported Sunday that five relatives of former President Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani were arrested for allegedly "inciting and encouraging rioters" in Tehran's Azadi (Freedom) Square on Saturday, the Web site reported.

Faezeh Rafsanjani, the former president's daughter, was released Sunday, and the four others were released earlier in the day, Press TV reported on its Web site. The woman's brother said she was arrested while taking part in a protest.

The elder Rafsanjani is chairman of the Assembly of Experts, which is responsible for appointing or removing the supreme leader. He is a supporter of Moussavi, while Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei remained staunch in his defense of incumbent President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

A spokesman for the Guardian Council told state television that Wednesday is the last day it can recount the votes disputed by candidates.

Meanwhile, prominent figures, many of whom were part of Iran's Islamic revolution 30 years ago, issued conflicting statements, a sign that Iran's leadership was far from unified.

The foreign minister, Manouchehr Mottaki, said Sunday an investigation into claims of fraud in the election will be announced by week's end.

But speaking to foreign diplomats in Tehran, he called the possibility of irregularities almost nonexistent.

"The possibility of organized and comprehensive disruption and irregularities in this election is almost close to zero given the composition of the people who are holding the election," Mottaki said.

On the other hand, Iran's influential parliamentary speaker, Ali Larijani, implicated the same people -- the Guardian Council -- of siding with one candidate.

"Although the Guardian Council is made up of religious individuals, I wish certain members would not side with a certain presidential candidate," Larijani told the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting on Saturday, without naming whom he meant.

The comments were reported on Press TV and on another news Web site, Khabaronline, Sunday.

Larijani's statement was in direct contrast to that of Khamenei, who in a sermon Friday declared the elections a "definitive victory" for Ahmadinejad and rejected charges of vote rigging.

"A majority of people are of an opinion separate" from that of a minority, Larijani said.

While Larijani and Ahmadinejad have had a tense relationship in the past, Larijani is seen as being aligned with Khamenei. For him to directly contradict the leader's statement amounts to another example of the growing disagreement among ruling conservatives.

Meanwhile, former Iranian President Mohammad Khatami, in an open letter posted on his Web site, said, "the presence of the people is one of the achievements of the revolution and must be respected."

"Sensational and insulting propaganda against the people, who have always acted independently, and insinuating that their healthy movement is directed by foreigners is itself a sign of the implementation of faulty policies which will widen the gap between the people and the government," Khatami wrote.

The election and the subsequent clashes in Iran were the subject of protests in some U.S. cities Sunday. Photo See photos of some of the protests in the U.S. »

In Washington, roughly 400 Iranian-Americans gathered in front of the Iranian Interests Section on Sunday to protest the disputed election.

The protesters, dressed in the colors of the Iranian flag, waved signs and chanted slogans such as, "Down with the dictator," "Democracy for Iran," and "Where's my vote?" Some carried signs with images of injured and bleeding Iranian protesters.

Protests also were held in Los Angeles and New York.

Oil platform explodes in Gulf of Mexico; 11 injured, 2 missing

Commercial vessels extinguish a fire on board an oil platform approximately 20 miles off the coast of Grand Isle, Louisiana.

Story highlights

  • About 28 gallons of fuel spilled, Coast Guard official says
  • 11 injured, including four critically
  • The platform is for production and not drilling, authorities say
  • The fire has been put out, the Houston-based firm in charge of the platform says
An explosion tore through an oil platform in the Gulf of Mexico on Friday, triggering a fire and injuring at least 11 people, authorities said.
Rescue planes and helicopters are searching for at least two crew members who are still missing.
The incident happened roughly 20 miles off the coast of Grand Isle, Louisiana, on a platform used for production, not drilling. About 28 gallons of fuel spilled into the region, according to Coast Guard Response Division Chief Ed Cubanski. A half-mile oil sheen reportedly stretched near the area.
The 11 injured were airlifted off the platform, and nine additional crew members were safely evacuated off the platform, according to the Coast Guard. Four of the injured were taken to West Jefferson Medical Center in Louisiana where they were listed in critical condition, a hospital spokeswoman told CNN. Once they stabilized, they were scheduled to be transferred to the Baton Rouge General Burn Center.
The fire has been extinguished, according to a spokesman for Black Elk Energy, the Houston-based firm in charge of the platform. Federal authorities are investigating what triggered the explosion.
Map: Grand Isle, Louisiana
The incident comes a day after the Justice Department announced that oil company BP would plead guilty to manslaughter charges stemming from the 2010 Deepwater Horizon explosion and oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
The London-based oil giant BP has agreed to pay $4.5 billion in government penalties.
Working in the oil industry is a dangerous business. The fatality rate for oil and gas workers is 15.8 deaths per 100,000 employees, according the Bureau of Labor Statistics. That's nearly five times the national average.
In 2011, there were 11 fatalities in the oil and gas industry, according to BLS.
Most of the deaths were accidental, and criminal charges are never filed. The manslaughter charges brought against BP and two of its employees Thursday were rare. Only a handful of all workplace deaths in the United States result in criminal cases, according to the union AFL-CIO.

Richard Ben Cramer, influential campaign biographer, dies at 62

Richard Ben Cramer is probably best remembered for his monumental campaign chronicle, "What It Takes."

Story highlights

  • Richard Ben Cramer, author of monumental "What It Takes," dead at 62
  • Cramer remembered as generous, warm, a little stubborn
  • "What It Takes" called one of the great books on American politics in 20th century
  • Cramer's other books included biography of Joe DiMaggio, thoughts on Mideast
Richard Ben Cramer, the Pulitzer Prize-winning writer whose 1992 book "What It Takes" remains one of the most detailed and passionate of all presidential campaign chronicles, died Monday night, according to his longtime agent, Philippa "Flip" Brophy. He was 62.
The cause of death was lung cancer.
Cramer's work -- and work ethic -- was legendary among reporters. He talked in firm, declamatory bursts in a growl of a voice tinged with cigars and alcohol. He was generous with other writers, dogged in his pursuit of information, and known for idiosyncratically "doing things in his own way, on his own schedule," recalled Brophy.
"He was stubborn, charming and the most brilliant person I knew -- and the warmest," she said.
"He was an unmatched talent who set an enormously high bar for political journalism. I will miss him," said Vice President Joe Biden in a statement. Biden and Cramer became friendly when the author was working on "What It Takes."
CNN senior political analyst Gloria Borger, echoing many, attests to his generosity. She was a cub reporter for the old Washington Star when she was assigned to the Maryland statehouse beat. Cramer, then with The (Baltimore) Sun, took her under his wing.
"I was this new kid on the block, and he'd been around and knew Maryland politics very well, and he was smart and a brilliant writer -- and kind to a new reporter on the beat," she said.
Cramer put all his fury, emotion and eye for detail on the page in such works as "Joe DiMaggio: A Hero's Life" (2000), "How Israel Lost" (2004) and especially "What It Takes," a 1,047-page account of the 1988 presidential race.
"What It Takes" reads like Tom Wolfe on speed, like Theodore H. White left out in the wild. It's fueled by Cramer's determination to find out just exactly why people are crazy enough to run the obstacle course in pursuit of the nation's highest office.
The book contains astute and sympathetic profiles of George H.W. Bush, Michael Dukakis, Joe Biden and particularly Bob Dole. The latter comes across as particularly rich, with his distinctive third-person speaking style and tossed-off "Aghs," all rendered with Cramer's painterly eye.
"Too much political journalism today, even in book form, is geared more toward staff feuds and soap opera and less to what Richard spent so much time in 1988 exploring: what makes these candidates tick, and what drives them to compete in such an arduous -- and yes, at times, ridiculous process," said CNN's chief national correspondent, John King, who covered the Dukakis campaign that year.
Cramer plunged into the day-to-day drudgery of a presidential campaign with a vengeance, and what emerges is half winged exultation, half death march. (Indeed, the strain of doing the book made him very ill, though reports that it nearly killed him were "exaggerations," said Brophy.) In the long history of campaign works, which includes White's "Making of the President" series, Hunter S. Thompson's "Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72" and John Heilemann and Mark Helperin's gossipy "Game Change," Cramer's tome looms large -- "one of the most important books on American politics in the 20th century," said Michael Pakenham, a former editor at the Philadelphia Inquirer and a Cramer colleague.
The book was hugely influential. "Richard Ben Cramer transformed a whole generation of political reporters with his sweeping chronicle of the 1988 campaign," said Howard Kurtz, host of CNN's "Reliable Sources" and Washington bureau chief for The Daily Beast. "While almost no one could write and report as he did, he set the bar higher for everyone."
Cramer was fascinated as much by the machinery that produced power and hero worship as he was by the people at their center. "He was a journalist who listened and watched particularly well," says Butch Ward, a senior faculty member at the Poynter Institute and another former Inquirer colleague. "He went places most of us aspired to, but he got there."
Such determination didn't often sit well with reviewers. "What It Takes" was criticized as self-indulgent; "How Israel Lost," which painted a bleak picture of Cramer's former Mideast stomping grounds, was knocked as simple-minded. And Cramer's warts-and-all DiMaggio biography, though a bestseller, was slammed for the author's blunt handling of the New York Yankee hero.
Cramer "relentlessly, pulverizingly tells us that the man wasn't worthy of the legend built up around him," Allen Barra wrote in Salon. The review was headlined "Joe Cruel."
Cramer, of course, didn't see it that way.
"I think among older fans there's a sense that I'm somehow messing with their own memories, which was never my intent," he told CNN at the time. "I can understand their annoyance. But to me the life of DiMaggio was always more interesting than the myth."
Cramer was born in Rochester, New York, in 1950, and studied at Johns Hopkins and Columbia's journalism school. He worked at The Sun in the 1970s and then at the Philadelphia Inquirer from 1977 to 1984. He won a Pulitzer Prize for his Middle East reporting in 1979.
As a freelance writer, he wrote a number of well-received profiles, including a Rolling Stone piece on Jerry Lee Lewis, an Esquire cover story on Baltimore mayor (and later Maryland governor) William Donald Schaefer, and a much-talked-about story on Ted Williams, later reprinted as the book "What Do You Think of Ted Williams Now?"
Despite his renown among journalists, he wasn't always an easy sell, recalls Brophy. After she signed him -- "intercepting" him from agency head Sterling Lord because she loved his newspaper and magazine work -- she spent years funneling him book ideas from interested publishers. "He'd say, 'No, no, no, no, no,' and I would say (to others), 'He's really the type of person who needs to come up with his own idea.' "
When he finally had his own idea, it was for "What It Takes," a mammoth undertaking that frightened publishers. "I said, 'Richard, that's a great book idea, but it's not a first book. It's like a 10th book.' And he went, 'Sell it,' " said Brophy. "And I did."
With just four books and a handful of magazine articles over his long post-newspaper career, Cramer operated on his own clock. Sometimes that meant literally, said Brophy. One morning, while researching "What It Takes," he called her at 7:30, saying that he had missed a 7:15 flight. "What time did you get there?" she asked.
"7:20," he replied.
But that was Cramer, agree his friends, an occasionally shambling presence who was also a keen observer, a raconteur, a baseball fan, a master of ceremonies. (He served the latter role at Pakenham's wedding.) Ward imagines him in another time, another place, holding court with some other witty friends.
"It's probably not too much a stretch to imagine Richard sitting at the Algonquin, sharing great thoughts with other people," he said.
Cramer is survived by his wife, Joan Cramer, and a daughter, Ruby. An earlier marriage ended in divorce. According to The Sun, there will be no funeral at Cramer's request.

Blind activist known abroad while shunned by China

By DIDI TANG | May 9, 2012 | 7:06 AM EDT

Chinese talks on a mobile phone outside a hospital where Chinese legal activist Chen Guangcheng is receiving medical treatment in Beijing, Wednesday, May 9, 2012. Chen who triggered a diplomatic dispute between China and the United States said Monday he is confident that Beijing will hold up its end of a tentative deal to let him study overseas. (AP Photo/Vincent Thian)

BEIJING (AP) — Blind activist Chen Guangcheng has drawn a global media spotlight after setting off tensions between the U.S. and China, but he's almost unknown at home — and the Chinese government is working to keep it that way.

After reading a rare mention of the activist in a state-run newspaper, professor Liu Kang posted a message with Chen's name in it on the popular Twitter-like site run by Sina Corporation on Sunday only to see it erased by censors. He was surprised by the government's thoroughness.

"It got deleted for merely having his name in it," said Liu, who teaches Chinese studies at Duke University in the U.S. and is humanities dean at Shanghai Jiao Tong University and is currently in China.

Mentioned one minute, gone the next, Chen's case is a textbook study in how the authoritarian government manages information in the global Internet era. Unable to block all mention of Chen, censors try to minimize it while occassionally releasing editorials to purvey the government line.

A self-taught legal activist, Chen gained recognition among human rights campaigners at home and abroad for crusading for the disabled and fighting against forced abortions in his rural community. His dramatic flight from abusive house arrest to the U.S. Embassy in Beijing last month, the bargaining over his fate and the arrangements that may let Chen and his family go the U.S. made him the focus of global news.

In a sign of his new fame, the University of Washington in Seattle this week offered Chen a fellowship, a second offer following an invitation from New York University.

On Wednesday, Chen said paperwork for his travel is mostly finished on the U.S. side, but not on the Chinese side. He said he is recuperating from the broken foot bones sustained during his escape and from chronic intestinal problems. Mostly, though, he said he needs a break after seven years of prison and house arrest.

"Even if I stayed in China, I would also have rested for a while because you know my plight. It was like I was always with wolves. Any time I was not careful I might get bitten. So I feel like my nerves have been wound too tightly," Chen said by phone from his room in Beijing's Chaoyang Hospital.

Only blocks away from the hospital, where a clutch of reporters have gathered daily, few locals know the reasons for the fuss.

A 20-something barber at the Aonuoxuan Beauty Salon said he hadn't heard of Chen. A young Chinese fast-food restaurant worker said he knew the name but has been too busy to check into it. More than a dozen people in and outside Beijing gave similar responses. If they had heard his name at all, they knew little about his deeds.

If Chen's name has appeared in state-controlled media, virtually the only kind of media in China, it has been in reports quoting the Foreign Ministry or commentaries that criticized the U.S. government as meddling in Chinese affairs and insinuated that Chen is being used a tool.

Chinese made curious by these partial accounts can go online, using circumvention tools to get around government filters to reach oversease sites. That has allowed more information to seep back, and the result is a cat-and-mouse game, especially on popular social media, where users have turned to ever more obscure, coded references to Chen to beat the censors.

Variations of Chen's name in English and Chinese have been blocked as have Chaoyang Hospital, the U.S. Embassy and other terms associated with his case. After the generic phrase "blind man" was banned, some turned to a medical term for fat under the heart that looks like the Chinese character for blind. Liu, the professor, reposted his message, substituting "Chen Guangcheng" with "Chen Chuangchuang." The word "chuang" means "break into" in Chinese, a reference to Chen's entering the U.S. embassy. That message was left untouched

With the Internet, many more people know about Chen though they don't want to risk government disapproval by admitting it, especially to the foreign media, said Hung Huang, executive editor of the lifestyle magazine iLook.

"The problem is that there's a veil everybody wears in China," Hung said. "They don't want trouble."

She said plenty of people are commenting about Chen on — though often under pseudonyms, and the social media have forced the government to respond, even if in the form of denouncing editorials.

The controls have opened a gap between a general public which knows little about Chen and a "small universe of social media" where journalists, academics and activists are abuzz about him, said David Bandurski, a researcher with Hong Kong-based China Media Project.

"The story has been decapitated by media controls," Bandurski said. "There is no coverage in terms of news."

Still, those active on microblogs, or "weibo" in Chinese, have large numbers of followers and so cannot be ignored, said Bandurksi: "A miniature population on 'weibo' can influence decisions."

The government's biggest ally, however, is the indifference of many Chinese, who know to stay out of sensitive politics and who have been turned off by decades of propaganda.

Back at the beaty salon near Chen's hospital, one barber said they only buy newspapers to wipe the windows.

Associated Press journalists Isolda Morillo and Gillian Wong contributed to this report.

Chocolate Fondue for Two

6 oz semi sweet chocolate
3 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon rum

In the microwave or double boiler**, heat all ingredients until the chocolate is soft and melted. Remove from heat and allow to sit about 2 minutes. Stir to form a thick sauce. Decant into a bowl or a small fondue pot with a candle beneath to keep warm. Serve immediately with chunks of banana, strawberries, marshmallow, pineapple chunks, pound cake etc. When you near the bottom of the pot, take care as the chocolate will be positively molten.

*A good variation is to use flavored chocolate bars. I just used two of the signature bars from NYC's Chocolate Bar.

**If you have a large fondue pot with a good heat source (i.e. a sterno or fondue fuel burner rather than just a candle) you can do this in your fondue pot. It is slightly faster via stove top or microwave though.

My thoughts:
I have a large fondue pot with a strong flame but it always seems like such a hassle to set up just for a tiny dessert for two. So I bought this Jonathan Adler/Chocolate Bar mini fondue pot which is just perfect for two (or even four) people to have a little dessert. The bottom comes off and you can stick a tealight in there, which keeps the fondue surprisingly warm. I wouldn't recommend trying to melt the chocolate to make the fondue via candle, but by the end, the chocolate was bubbling and quite hot. If you don't have a fondue pot, you can serve it in a bowl, but you have to eat quickly, before it hardens.

  1. what a cute gadget for those who don't fondue enough to get a set!

  2. oh i saw that little set. but really, fondue for 2... how about 1! ;)

  3. Connie: fondue for one is fun! I'd make less though, even this little bit made a tiny bit too much for the two of us.

  4. I love fondue but hate the washing up! I always dream about owning one of those huge chocolate fountains too!

  5. I've seen this set too...seems like the perfect alternative!

  6. I hate to sound bourgeois, but a microwave is great for fondue for one or two. One of my favorites is to melt a Milky Way Dark in the microwave, stir and then dip in fresh cherries...

Oh the river flows. There is a sound effect (adjustable!) of birds/flowing river sound, and it is mirrored on the outside. Note the fancy 'arms" that allow you to prop it up. I would date this to the 80s because of the mirror, but additional info appreciated. Yes, lost my mind.
Please note I sent a message in the mirror.

    Stillwater. I actually was thrilled to find this as it will be a perfect 40th birthday present for a good friend. His wife is getting him a pool table and converting a basement area into a bar/game room. This is exactly the type of piece that is kitschy fun that will be perfect. I know he will love it.

Andrew Luck’s Updated Fantasy Outlook After Trent Richardson Trade

Posted By Andrew Gould On September 18, 2013 @ 7:42 pm In Colts News | No Comments

The Indianapolis Colts [1] sent shock waves throughout the NFL [2] by acquiring star running back Trent Richardson [3] from the Cleveland Browns [4].

ESPN Adam Schefte [5]r had the scoop on a massive trade that landed the Colts the former No. 3 pick for a future first-rounder.

Blockbuster trades are hardly a hallmark in the NFL, and this deal bolsters Indianapolis’ offense while making Cleveland prime contenders to challenge the Jacksonville Jaguars [6] for the league’s bottom billing.

This major move also united the highly talented 22-year-old back with 24-year-old quarterback Andrew Luck [7], forming a dynamic duo for years to come.

The two will torture defenses down the line, but Luck’s immediate fantasy status does not alter much with the transaction.

It sure helps Richardson, who averaged 3.5 yards per carry during his 17-game tenure in Cleveland. Defenses will no longer be able to clog the running lanes against him with Luck behind center instead of Brandon Weeden.

But don’t worry about Richardson stealing all the touches and draining Luck’s fantasy value.

Even with Vick Ballard out for the season [8], the Colts had (and still have) a solid running back in Ahmad Bradshaw [9], who registered 65 rushing yards and a score on 15 carries in Week 2. While Richardson will welcome his new surroundings, he does not represent a dramatic enough upgrade for Indianapolis to crumble up the playbook and become a run-first organization.

The club’s running game has also been solid enough not to hinder Luck’s output. After a season where he was forced to pass 627 times, he is on pace to finish the season with 528 passing attempts. That decreased burden, however, has resulted in more efficiency.

Luck, who completed 54.1 percent of his passes last season, now boasts a 65.2 percent clip. He has collected 499 passing yards alongside three touchdowns and a pick, none of which will be greatly threatened or enhanced by Richardson’s arrival.

The sophomore is a low-end starting quarterback for fantasy owners with the upside for more. He may lose a few pass attempts, but he’ll become even more efficient with a cavalcade of offensive weapons at his disposal.

Dynasty owners are now even happier to own Luck, who should assemble an offensive juggernaut in Indianapolis with Richardson joining the party.

Those who own Luck should not overreact to the change in any way. Learn from Cleveland’s mistake, as the team’s inability to properly gauge a small sample size amid trying circumstances led it to jettison the franchise’s offensive building block.

Chuck Pagano’s Dr. Suggests Colts Coach May Return to Sideline for Season Finale

Posted By Richard Langford On December 4, 2012 @ 10:01 pm In Colts News | No Comments

With Indianapolis Colts [1] head coach Chuck Pagano having completed his final round of chemotherapy, there is a chance the first-year head coach will be on the sidelines again this season.

The wonderful news comes to us via IndyStar.com’s Mike Chappell [2], who passed along this quote from Dr. Larry Cripe of IU Health Simon Cancer Center:

I’m fully supportive and I have my fingers crossed that he’ll be there on the sideline if that’s where he wants to be.

The doctor added that over the next couple of weeks, Pagano will have to return to health and recover from the treatment, and that the coach is free to start conditioning to do just that.

When the doctor was asked if a return was possible as soon as the Dec. 30 season finale, when the Colts host the Houston Texans [3], Chappell quotes Dr. Cripe as saying:

Medically, I think it’s very possible and I think the coach will make the decision about how he’s feeling and whether he’s up to the task. Then, the organization will make a decision.

So there is a lot that comes into play here for the coach to make that return, but it is amazing that it is even a possibility.

The Colts have been one of the season’s real surprises, as they weren’t expected to be contenders in the first place, and when they lost Pagano indefinitely on Sept. 26 with a 1-2 record, it seemed like they were in for a rough season.

However, the team has rallied around #ChuckStrong [4], even though he hasn’t been able to coach, and interim head man Bruce Arians has done a wonderful job in his stead.

In fact, the 8-4 Colts have played so well that there is a strong chance there be will serious playoff implications on the line for them during that targeted season finale.

And even if he doesn’t make it back to the sideline, this is still beautiful news in the recovery of Pagano.

Welcome to Communication Across Barriers

"My education, my work, and my passion are to help people from all races who are trapped in poverty. I want them to have genuine options for lifelong success. This can only happen if the voices of those struggling with poverty can be heard and their perspectives understood.

Dr. Donna M. Beegle

Poverty is resolvable, however, making a difference for people who live in the crisis of poverty requires a paradigm shift.

A shift that moves us beyond stereotypes and judgement to a deeper understanding of the causes of poverty and its impact on human beings. With this awareness, we can work together to provide genuine opportunities for people to move out of poverty." -- Donna Beegle
