By Scott DiSavino and Cezary Podkul
Oct 31 (Reuters) - - - A series of emails and instant
messages between Barclays PLC traders -- peppered with
colorful and obscene language -- is at the heart of federal
energy regulators' effort to impose record fines over a complex
plan to manipulate California power markets.
The U.S. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission on Wednesday
proposed a total $470 million fine on Barclays -- the largest
ever by the agency -- based in part on communications by four
traders on its West Coast power desk. The trading activity took
place over two years from late 2006.
The team of four traders -- veterans of power merchant
Mirant, one of the companies that had been fined hundreds of
millions of dollars after the California power scandal a decade
ago -- exchanged messages explaining how they would "crap on"
certain prices in one market to profit in another.
The traders are alleged to have manipulated power prices --
driving up or down physical power prices to make money with
their financial swap positions. That is alleged to have caused
losses for rival power traders of $139 million -- and netted the
bank gains of $34.9 million.
Although there was no clear indication that the trading
significantly increased or decreased power prices for customers,
the allegations may reopen old wounds in a state where the 2001
scandal and related Enron collapse still smarts.
Ironically, the FERC, which is flexing its enforcement
muscle after receiving expanded powers to tackle illicit trading
in 2005, was tipped off to the activity after other players in
the market called its enforcement hotline.
The FERC gave the bank 30 days to "show cause", or contest
the fine, which includes disgorgement plus a $435 million civil
penalty. Barclays has said it will "vigorously" fight the order.
For a Factbox on the FERC's biggest civil penalties, see
The order focuses on a period between November 2006 and
December 2008, when the then-Managing Director of North American
Power, Scott Connelly, as well as Daniel Brin, Karen Levine and
Ryan Smith sent a string of messages to each other and to
traders and brokers outside the bank.
The Commission notified Barclays that it had begun the
investigation of Barclays' Western U.S. power trading on July 3,
Brin, reached on his mobile phone, declined to comment.
Efforts to reach the other traders named in the order,
announced late on Wednesday, were unsuccessful.
The instant messages and emails -- often written in barely
decipherable trader jargon -- outlined the plot to rig various
Western power markets, reminiscent of the infamous conversation
between Enron traders talking of driving up "Grandma Millie's"
electricity bill during the 2000-2001 California crisis.
On November 3, 2006, Smith bragged to a colleague about how
he had narrowed the spread between the South Path (SP) power
region and the Palo Verde market by trading physical power on
the InterContinentalExchange, the electronic exchange
whose prices are used as a benchmark.
The intent was to influence the peak market price at Palo
Verde, a trading location in Arizona that has a substantial
amount of nuclear generation that can be sold into California.
The pay-off would be in swap contracts that were settled based
on that price, a strategy known as a "loss-leader".
Smith concluded: "(That) was fun. Need to do that more
He also said he was going to "crap on the NP light and it
should drive the SP light lower" -- referring to the South Path
power region covering Southern California and the North Path
(NP) region in the north of the state. Light refers to off peak,
overnight trading hours.
In another note, Brin indicated that he was "doing phy
so i am trying to drive price in fin direction,"
-- meaning he was using the physical power market to drive up
the value of his financial swap positions.
The FERC said the traders -- who face a total of $18 million
in civil penalties -- accounted for nearly a quarter of the
next-day power market during the two years in question.
According to the FERC, the Barclays team put together by
Connelly made up an average of 24 percent of all next-day
fixed-price trading, and as much as 58 percent in some months.
Exchanges, like ICE, will be critical to the FERC's
allegations. Experts say the most difficult thing about winning
a "manipulation" case is proving traders' intent to do so.
As an example of the type of behavior Barclays engaged in,
the FERC said bank traders would establish long financial swap
positions, which settle against daily indexes each day of the
Against that the company would establish short positions in
physical monthly indexes. Barclays would then cover its short
index positions by buying dailies each day, a tactic that would
artificially prop up the daily index settle.
While the company might lose in its short cash daily
positions, it would profit more on its long financial swap
positions for a net gain.
Levine stated in a note that Barclays would trade physical
index to "protect a position" and requested her colleagues to
"keep the PV (Palo Verde) index up and the SP daily index down"
while she was on vacation.
Brin and Smith also discussed how Levine asked them to help
her "prop up" indices and explained how doing so required the
Barclays traders to take a "daily loss" trading the physical
If Barclays had let the financial swaps settle without
trading dailies against index to move the settlement, FERC
alleged it would have realized a net loss.
The FERC alleged the Barclays traders knew their
loss-generating physical trading was likely unlawful and
specifically ignored the warning of Joseph Gold, Barclays
managing director and head of commodities for the Americas.
"Uneconomic trading activity was something which I tried to
make sure was very clear to all the traders," Gold said he told
traders, according to the FERC order.
"The golden rule was always, under no circumstances, lose
money on a transaction for the intention of making money on
another transaction."
Barclays hired Connelly as its Managing Director of North
American Power in May 2006 to build and grow a North American
power trading group for Barclays, reporting to Gold.
Connelly then hired former colleagues he had worked with at
Mirant Corp: Ryan Smith, who had been at Mirant since 2000, and
Karen Levine, who had been there since 2001, according to their
work histories on LinkedIn. After Connelly joined Barclays, he
hired Daniel Brin, a trader Connelly knew from Mirant, according
to the FERC.
It was not clear what role, if any, the traders had at
Mirant during the period of the California power crisis in 2000
to 2001. The merchant was later one of several companies to pay
settlements of $500 million or more following federal and state
investigations of manipulation in the power crisis.
All four left Barclays over the past five years for reasons
unrelated to the investigation, and the bank effectively quit
the Western power market this year.
Some of the traders are now consultants, according to their
LinkedIn profiles. Smith got top marks from one of his
subsequent colleagues at Xcel Energy, where he worked
for three years after leaving Barclays in 2007.
"It doesn't sound like the Ryan that I had experience with,"
said Joe Morrato, an electricity executive who was a risk
compliance manager at Xcel in Denver. "In my work with him at
Xcel, he was nothing but ethical and compliant in every way."
Morrato could only recall writing up Smith for one violation
in three years' time: executing a transaction based on what he
thought was a direction from another executive, when in fact the
executive denied giving him the direction.
It was indeterminate who was at fault, Morrato said, and he
knew of no disciplinary action resulting from the write-up.

LAS VEGAS - Canelo Alvarez chased an elusive Erislandy Lara for 12 rounds Saturday night before escaping with a split-decision win for his second straight victory since losing to Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Alvarez had all he could handle against Lara, whose constant movement frustrated the Mexican fighter and often caused him to miss wildly with right hands.
In the end, Alvarez won on two scorecards, 115-113 and 117-111, to pull out a narrow win. The third judge had Lara ahead 115-113, while The Associated Press scored the fight 114-114.
Alvarez was favored against the Lara, who left his native Cuba to come to the U.S. and fight as a pro. But Lara provided a stiff test in a fight that was up for grabs in the late rounds.

Corn farming on a gardener's mind
A late night at the grocery store: I'm picking up the kind of things one typically buys after the hardest day of the week: gelato, and silly candy, and maybe a few staples. And in conversation with my checker — one of the jobs a U-Scan-It computer cannot and will never duplicate — he tells me that he's leaving in a week to go back to school to study ag and ag business under a USDA program to help beginning farmers.
He's surely in his 50s. But he has that gleam that people have on the cusp of a new adventure. He has friends with land and cattle. He knows that when he goes into a barn at night, there won't be any time clock hanging from the rafters. He's going to spend his days outdoors, in connection with animals and the soil, and eating the best food he's ever tasted. "Our beef is really good," he confides, "but it can't touch my friends' beef." His optimism is like a virus, and I walk out of the store, into the summer night, grinning.

The Blossom Kite Festival is an annual event that takes place during the Cherry Blossom Festival in Washington, D.C., where kite fliers can show off their skills and compete for awards, while spectators get to watch the beautiful kites fill the air. This year's Blossom Kite Festival will be held on March 30th and National Aquarium, Washington, DC have a booth on the National Mall where visitors can make their own aquatic-themed windsocks out of recycled materials!
If you can't join the festivities in D.C., you can still participate with this kid-friendly craft! Here's how you can make your very own "green" kite, using recycled and household materials:
- Plastic grocery bag
- String
- Any thin sticks
- Tape
- Scissors
- Marker
- Popsicle stick
- Ruler or other straight edge
- Make the frame of your recycled kite by laying the sticks on top of each other to form a cross, then securing them by winding some string around the intersection of the sticks. Make sure the string is wrapped in a criss-cross diagonal pattern so the sticks remain in place.
- Next, cut the grocery bag on one side and across the bottom, and lay it out flat. Place the sticks on the grocery bag. Using your marker and straight edge, draw lines on the grocery bag connecting the corners of the sticks to make a template for your kite. When you are finished with this step you should have drawn a full square on the grocery bag.
- Take your scissors and cut along the guidelines you just drew. Then, tape the grocery bag to the sticks at each corner. If your square is big enough, you can fold the corners slightly over the sticks and tape it that way for extra strength.
- If you have any scraps from your grocery bag, cut them into streamers of various lengths, and attach them to the tail of your kite with tape.
- Finally, tie the string around the intersecting sticks and make several secure knots. Unspool several feet of string, then tie the other end of the string to the middle of the popsicle stick to create the line for the kite.
Don't forget to join us out on the National Mall this weekend for the Blossom Kite Festival!

Student or Learner
I'm confused about the meaning of "take place" in the following.
Their advice is to hold onto your "core" competencies..... More recent versions of the idea ask the same question---Which functions belong in the core?---for headquarters versus divisions or other operational units. This question is important for strategics analysis: you study which functions take place in your industry, and where, both among your competitors and in your operations. Core competencies can help organize a large company into units of common strength.
Thank you.
I know the literal meaning of "take place"---happen/occur.
But when they say "some functions happen/occur in your industry," it sounds strange to me. In the text, I understand "functions" as meaning various work in a company or a organization such as sales, marketing, design, and so on. Is this correct?

Good deer season winds down
It's hard to believe that most hunting seasons are already winding down. It seems to me that only a few days ago, the big discussions were what kind of shape the deer country was in. Along with that was the question of animal condition after the drought a year ago. Many of the predictions of doom and gloom were not supported. There was ample rainfall during the right time to supply ample forage for the deer in most areas. There was also a super crop of acorns, and the whitetails will feed on them until they become rotten or all of them have been consumed.
The early whitetail season was somewhat slow due to the abundant acorn crop. Most of the lease holders or landowners that set out trail cameras saw lots of deer of all ages out feeding at night. Deer are normally nocturnal, but during the rut and when food is scarce, they will move around more during the daylight hours.
In the brush country of Texas, the rut usually begins in earnest after Christmas and runs until the season's end in January. In fact, the folks that go after the trophy antlered bucks in South Texas don't normally head out until after Christmas.
The whitetails in East Texas and in the Hill Country normally are going in full rut in October and early November. That situation is ideal for archers, but the rifle hunters will need to do a little more searching, especially in East Texas. After the first couple weeks in November, many East Texas hunters fail to even see any deer. Certainly that is not a rule chiseled in stone, but my experience has been just that situation.
Another thing that I have observed mostly in the Hill Country but some in East Texas also is a secondary rut. In fact, as I mentioned earlier, some recent trail camera photos revealed some bucks with big necks and dark pads on their lower hind legs. Most of the folks that are still taking deer in both East Texas and the Hill Country are spending much time in the woods. Sooner or later, it would seem something would move a buck in that direction. Free ranging dogs that are illegal, coyotes and other hunters are also sometimes the deer movers.
For late season hunting, especially in public open lease areas, it could be a better choice not to hunt from a constructed stand. Should there have been any hunting pressure in the area, the deer will avoid the stands. That's especially the case if there have been some other hunters shooting from the blinds.
In many hunt areas, especially day leases, you might be restricted to remaining in an assigned blind. Should that not be the case, then I recommend locating deer trails that have been heavily used recently and set up in some natural growth nearby. Remember to hide downwind from the heavily used crossings. I also recommend scattering some corn there. Even if the deer are only going by, many times the corn will stop them just out of curiosity. I've found that this techniques works wonders, especially in the Hill Country.
It has long been amazing to me why more of our local whitetail hunters do not choose to head to the east and check out some of that action. There are people with kinfolk in both Louisiana and Mississippi who enjoy some really great hunting. In doing some research, I have found that the deer populations in both Louisiana and Mississippi are up. Many of the folks that hunt in the northern parts of Louisiana are taking some really heavy antlered bucks. Their body weights are much larger than most of our Texas deer.
Mississippi has a deer population that rivals Texas in a per-acre survey. Their rutting time is much as it is in South Texas. Most of the private land is hunted by hunting clubs or by the families that own the land. There are several plantations that are offering day hunts for trophy managed deer. The deer are big, and so are the antlers. A four and a half year old buck will likely weight in the high 200 pound range or more. The does in the 160 to 170 pound range are not uncommon. Antler measurements of 160 Boone and Crocket points and even larger are also taken fairly consistently. The restrictions for most areas are not as strict as they are on trophy ranches. Ross McGehee operates a hunting plantation just 5 miles out of Natchez Mississippi, and he offers some great hunts. The Washes Plantation may be contacted at (601) 431-6881.

Subscribe To Weekend Box Office: 300 Rises Again With A Sequel Updates
I've already subscribed
There's been a promotional blitz of epic proportions surrounding the release of the 300 sequel 300: Rise of an Empire. The question is whether or not it was successful enough to confirm the rise of a franchise.
300: Rise of an Empire may have landed solidly at number one this weekend, but it fell far short of the glory that was the opening of its predecessor. 300 offered something visually new when it arrived in March of 2007, and audiences flocked. It banked $70 million its opening weekend, becoming then the third highest rated R opening ever. Rise of an Empire took in $45 million this weekend, a substantial number but perhaps not what studios were hoping for.
The movie's production budget is advertised as $110 million (compared with 300's $60 million price tag) though that number doesn't include the costs for what has been a massive marketing blitz. But already the movie has topped $132 million in world-wide sales and while it may not reach the same financial success as the first entry, it's certainly going to end up in the black. But will it generate enough interest to bring players back to the table for a third serving of over-the-top, pseudo-historical, CG coated gratuitous violence fest?
Mr. Peabody and Sherman went a bit to the dogs this weekend, debuting with just $32 million. Compare that with its inexplicably large $145 million budget (seriously, it cost more to make than 300: Rise of an Empire?) and you can bet the folks at DreamWorks animation will be showing up to work on Monday with their tails between their legs. Good thing they have the bullet proof How To Drain Your Dragon 2 on deck to balance out the books.
12 Years A Slave enjoyed a post-Oscar resurgence, jumping back up into the bottom of the top ten to add a few extra million to its modest grand total.
For the full weekend top ten, check out the chart below:

I thoroughly enjoyed the reading with Lawrence, his interpretation (even the hidden areas) of who I am was very accurate, I initially engaged in his services because an inexperienced palm reader told me I was going to be very ill, she was far from the truth, I gained some tools from Lawrence to help me with some areas of minor concern and I know what lines will change when I use these tools. Going forward I feel more confident and grounded, especially in my career at this late stage of life, I am definitely on the right track and there is no need to listen to nay sayers and doubt myself, my gut instincts are right, its all in the palm of my hands, thank you Lawrence.

I am extremely satisfied with my reading with Lawrence. Lawrence takes the time to explain details clearly and patiently. He is extremely warm, kind and easy to talk to, and welcomes any questions you may have. I had many questions during my reading, every one of which he explained in a way that was easy to understand. And the recording he sends you at the end of the session is such a blessing, you can go back to it any time you want a review. I would highly recommend Lawrence to anyone interested in navigating their best path forward.

Lawrence is AMAZING! absolute genius..... Anyone and everyone will find this absolutely fascinating! You don't find out anything scary/ that you don't know.... it turns out your hands are literally a scientific map of YOU! It's just amazing to have someone read you like they already know you... but also to confirm things that you hadn't really fully acknowledged yet, and also to get some advice as to how to approach any significantly unhealthy/ unbalanced traits that could potentially be more detrimental than beneficial. I have always been sceptical of 'palm reading' and I actually felt a bit nervous having paid and the initial commitment to going through with it!...... There is a lot of negative stigma with this practise. But this wasn't wishy washy.... it was scientific, intellectual and clearly a combination of natural ability very refined skill and lots of experience. On top of that, Lawrence was totally lovely! I did this with my friend, and that was even more impressive to see how Lawrence could read us both so accurately, (and also more fun! :) Very cool!

I first met Lawrence @ Glastonbury 2014 during a dual reading with a friend. Lawrence was able to identify various character/personality traits in us both as well as making suggestions in order to, myself more specifically, function a little more coherently. Gradually accepting and implementing his advice enabled me to gain insight, perspective and the feeling of being grounded (a rarity for me). Having recently hit 30 and in the process of finishing a MSc. life has thrown some more lessons/challenges my way. I returned to see Lawrence last month not far off 4 years to the day of my first reading. Once again I was amazed by his insight and accuracy, a skill that one can only wish to understand. He was supportive and so understanding during a mini meltdown during the session and made me feel so comfortable considering.I left Bristol feeling re-aligned, re-focused and hopeful for my journey ahead. I would recommend a session with Lawrence to anyone, he's fab, looking forward to sucking up his knowledge again soon. :)

Strongly recommended experience! At first I wasn't sure about a skype reading, I just was dubious if some pictures would be enough for a quality hand-reading. But his explanations about my personality, emotions were very accurate, they just ressonated in me.. He also gave me some good advice on how to feel more grounded, which I really appreciate. I just recommend him!

I saw Lawrence for a reading last week. I was very impressed at the accuracy of the reading, especially how well it married with my astrological birth chart. I certainly enjoyed his clarity when explaining the different features of my hands. I also appreciated his sensitivity when talking about any life challenges coming through the lines. Each time, he suggested creative ways to deal with these challenges and implement strategies to turn them around. I found it very stimulating to be given a whole new language and set of tools to understand my personality and continued path through life. His enthusiasm and depth of knowledge were infectious; he made me feel very relaxed and safe; and he communicated everything at just the right level. The reading was a rewarding and rich experience. I think Lawrence is a first rate Teacher and Guide.

Got impressed with Lawrence accurate description of my characters attributes and my life's pathways. Though I booked the appointment for fun and out of curiosity i found out that palmistry really has to say Smth about yourself. Highly recommended! Ps. The appointment booking can take up to two weeks in order to be consulted. Lawrence advised me of his busy schedule and now I see y !

Highly recommended! I met Lawrence by chance at a festival and had my palms read by him. I was impressed with how accurate he is down to the last detail. I have just had my palms read by him again years later and he has managed to impress me once again.

Lawrence is a super talented chiromantitian. He presents readings in a serious and honest but kind and friendly way. He knows a lot about the subject and has an amazingly engaging manner when explaining palmistry. Every single thing he said about my mind, personality, emotions and life phase adhered to my experience of myself. Couldn't recommend him high enough.

I first saw Lawrence at a summer festival and wasn't able to get an appointment as he got fully booked each day, and now I understand why! The reading was incredibly insightful and brilliantly accurate. It's one thing to 'know' yourself but quite another to have someone reflect all of how you are back to yourself. I don't think anyone has ever described me so precisely. He addresses both weaknesses and strengths - without making you feel that they are weaknesses or strengths, but that they just 'are', and provides grounded advice on how to manage these. Personally he seems lovely and was incredibly accommodating - I live in Scotland whilst he is currently in India and he was still able to arrange an appointment via Skype. I wondered if just sending pictures would be enough for a reading - and it really was. I would recommend him to anyone wanting a little more insight or clarity in their lives for any reason, or even simply for those that are just curious.

"Spot on" is how I'd describe Lawrence's reading. Every single thing he said about my mind, personality, emotions and life phase resonated with me on so many levels. He gave me some pretty valuable suggestions, and I love the fact that I get to keep a recording of the session so that I can go back to it at any point in the future. Lawrence is highly enthusiastic and passionate about this – it really shows. He does it with a lot of care and compassion as well. Also very systematic in his approach. Glad I gave it a shot!

A Romantic, Rustic Wedding at Pear Valley Winery in Paso Robles, California
Courtney Ghilarducci (29 and an office manager and baker) and Jack Dendy (36 and a contractor) planned a relaxed but refined affair in soft pastels and warm neutrals. Pear Valley Winery in Paso Robles, California, provided a picturesque backdrop for the event with its rolling hills, vine-covered acres and quaint, European-style architecture.
The day started with an outdoor ceremony on the stone terrace overlooking the vineyards and Paso Robles beyond. "Since there was so much natural beauty, we kep the decoration very simple," says Courtney. "A couple of floral arrangements at the front and end of the aisle, displayed on barrels—that's it!"
After exchanging vows, the newlyweds and their guests gathered in the winery's tasting room for cocktail hour before heading to the banquet hall for dinner and dancing. Wooden farm tables and French country chairs infused the room with warmth and rustic flair; crisp white and pink linens, mercury glass and pewter accents, floating candles and arrangements of blush roses and green hydrangeas brought the couple's romantic vision to life. "I love mixing rustic pieces with traditional details," Courtney says.
To personalize the decor, Jack and Courtney placed framed childhood photos throughout the room and treated guests to a standout dessert display (a must for Courtney, who is a baker). A tip for the taking from Courtney: "We received a lot of advice as we were going through the planning process, but the one thing that really stood out was how important it is to enjoy that day and relax! It goes by fast, so take some time to soak in everything, and realize how blessed you are to have all your friends and family there for you." —Libby MacCarthy

The small rubber boat manned by two Pakistani Navy personnel churned through the vast expanse of brown water, passing scattered clumps of treetops and the thatched roofs of a few houses in search of stranded villagers.
The craft was part of an operation to rescue people around Sukkur, the city in Sindh Province where the wall of water unleashed by the worst flooding in Pakistan's history was cresting Tuesday as it moved south down the Indus River toward the Arabian Sea.
Those who didn't heed warnings to evacuate areas near the river, refusing to believe that their homes would be submerged, are now marooned on rooftops or in trees by a surging tide infested with snakes. They have little or no food, are forced to drink the filthy water, and are prey to bands of boat-borne bandits.
The water, which had risen slowly here for a week, gushed up over the weekend as the main body of the torrent swept in from the north, drowning farmlands and jungle as far the eye can see.
The flooding has killed some 1,600 people and affected 14 million others, according to the United Nations, overwhelming the government's ability to cope and submerging some of the most heavily populated areas and fertile agricultural lands. In Sindh alone, some 1.5 million people have been displaced so far, provincial authorities said Tuesday.
A McClatchy reporter rode aboard the boat as it left the riverbank at Rohri, a small town near Sukkur, where the river was 13 feet deep. The craft had been under way for about an hour before our guide, a local man, pointed to trees sticking out of the water. There he said, was his village, Allah Dhinoo.
As the boat approached, a man's yelling led the boat through a tangle of treetops to a thatched roof. Nearby, two young men waded through the neck-high flood. From just under the roof, inches above the water, a third was carried to the boat, a disabled man who had been suspended on a bed placed on the rafters.
The men refused to leave without a goat, which was loaded onto the boat, along with what appeared to be a fighting cock, two smaller birds in a cage, two trunks of possessions and a cache of shotguns. Left behind on the roof were several dogs that howled pleadingly as the craft departed.
"That's to deal with the bandits," explained 30-year-old Nadir Ali Bhurro, pointing to the shotguns as he climbed aboard, clad in only a loincloth, having first taken care to lock his submerged house. "We have to bring our valuables because the bandits have big boats and they'll take our stuff when we're gone."
The Sindh countryside is notorious for bandits and the area by the river was always a favorite hideout. The outlaws apparently have been taking advantage of the floods by ransacking abandoned homes.
At the next stop, four men and a woman were huddled on a flimsy roof. They'd stacked their belongings in locked trunks atop a brick structure nearby, along with a tall metal cylinder for storing grain.
"We've just been eating rice for the last few days," said Atta Mohammad, 20. "And drinking the river water."
At a third stop, just a few hundred yards away, chickens that had been surviving on a thatched roof were tied up, bundled into a steel trunk, and brought aboard the boat, along with the man who had been minding them.
"The chickens are very valuable," explained Bhurro, who gave only one name. "What else are we going to live on once we're out of the village?"
The boat's crew was indulgent, allowing the animals and other belongings on board. The victims of this flood are dirt poor. Most have lost their annual store of grain.
"People don't leave their birds behind," said Guftar Ahmed, who was steering the craft. "We have to try to accommodate their needs."
As the boat turned to return to Rohri, small heads became visible bobbing along in mid-stream. Those too desperate to wait for rescue were swimming for dry land, a distance of several miles.
When we approached, it was obvious that the swimmers, several young men, were exhausted. With no room left on the boat, two clung to the sides and were pulled along through the flood.
Their shriveled hands, barely able to hang on, testified to the hours they'd spent in the water. They had lashed empty plastic jugs around themselves for buoyancy, and had wrapped their clothes around their heads.
Once on land, Ashiq Ali, 20, said that the pair had taken to the water when they finally abandoned a hope of saving their buffaloes.
"We got very tired [swimming]," said Ali, from Alaf Kacha village, about eight miles away. "Back there, we have 30 buffaloes. Each is worth 30,000 rupees ($350). How could we just leave them behind?"
The rescue mission had taken three hours. The boat turned around to retrieve other swimmers. Many such missions take five or six hours, said Major Noor Ulamin, who was supervising rescue missions from the riverbank.
"These people don't understand the gravity of the situation, how far the water will rise," Ulamin said. "It is still rising."

Amazon Kindle Fire HD 8.9 – Review
[dropcap]S[/dropcap]o as a nerd I was really pretty excited to check out the Amazon Kindle Fire HD 8.9. There were a number of reasons, I love the idea of a reader and the 10+" tablet I have now is just too big to be a real reader. I know an inch and change doesn't make a big difference on paper, but in practice I assure you that it does. It's that much heavier, harder to find a good long term position with, and yes I could get a holder but you lose that "book" feel when you go through all that. I just want to get lost in fiction and not be jarred out of my vivid imagination with the logistics of a bulky reader.
Amazon Kindle Fire HD 8.9 – More than a reader
Obviously the Kindle HD 8.9 is MORE than a 'reader'. It's a full fledged tablet capable of streaming video content, reading books, and surfing the web to name a few. It does not have the latest and greatest processor, or the most RAM, or even the most storage space. What is does have is plenty of processing power, plenty of RAM and plenty of storage space (even on the 16 GB model). It does that for a LOT less than other tablets. The screen is nice, bright, has vivid color, and is very responsive to your touch. I like it. I like it alot.
Amazon Kindle Fire HD 8.9 – Nerds like us
Getting back to the nerd reference I made, as a nerd one of the things I had on the list of things to do was to root the Kindle, and put the latest version of Android on it. So I did that. When I was finished I realized I had "Yet another tablet" and for the first time while using the Kindle HD 8.9 I got bored. It just wasn't exciting anymore, it was just a tablet. So I put the Kindle OS back on the tablet and set it up again. Oddly a few minutes later I was having fun again. You just don't get the same experience without all the Kindle OS features. I quickly realized that there is a tool for every task, and that making a screwdriver into a hammer isn't always the best route.
Amazon Kindle Fire HD 8.9 – Unlimited Content
What I really like about the Amazon Kindle HD 8.9 is the unlimited content. It's a one stop shop for video, audio books, and ebooks (among other things like Music, TV Shows, the list goes on). If I'm on the road I can fire up the audio book version of a book I'm reading and listen to it through my car radio. I used the headphone jack to accomplish this, but the Amazon Kindle HD 8.9 does have Bluetooth so theoretically you could stream the audio through your car audio system or even a Bluetooth docking station at home.
Amazon Kindle Fire HD 8.9 – Easy Setup
The Amazon Kindle HD 8.9 is easy to setup too, there is nothing to it really – if you have an Amazon.com account already you can literally just sign in with that and everything you bought (digital content) is instantly available to you. Shopping from the Kindle HD is going to be a real treat this year, most of my family are getting things from Amazon since I can sit there in the recliner and click/ship what I want instead of carting off to 50 stores to get trampled by the black Friday mobsters.
Amazon Kindle Fire HD 8.9 – Conclusion
The Amazon Kindle HD 8.9 is a real score. A useful tool that has a great battery life; The Amazon Kindle HD is the Swiss Army Knife of Tablets/Readers. For the price, it just can't be beat by anything out there, and I'd rather have a Kindle Fire HD 8.9 than an Apple iPad Mini so it gets 5 out of 5 stars.

Bursera Graveolens. Palo Santo ground for making cone-incenses (6 kg.). Ground mesh 30 approx. High quality product. 100% pure. Burning a palo santo cone it is used to remove the bad energy from the home, away mosquitoes and insects, disinfects air. Product of Ecuador
- THIS PRODUCT IS NOT IN STOCK. We process under request only. It takes 1 or 2 weeks to be ready depending on the quantity ordered.
Our Palo Santo is utilized in a sustainable way, that allows us a traceability from its planting, picking, transformation and commercialization.
PaloSanto's properties: Burserea Graveolens PaloSanto Oil is a ecologically and sustainably harvested wood gathered on Ecuador's Pacific coast. This extraordinary aromatic tree is widely used in the traditional ethno-botanical systems of South America, especially by the shamans of the Andes.
This product is elaborated without harming the Palo Santo tree. We only process wood that has been found to have died naturally in the forest. Product of Ecuador
Bursera graveolens, known in Spanish as palo santo ("holy wood") is a tree that inhabits the coast of Ecuador. The tree belongs to the same family (Burseraceae) as frankincense and myrrh. It is widely used in folk medicine. Palo Santo is rich in terpenes such as limonene and α-terpineol.
The use of Palo Santo (or Palo Santo) from Bursera Graveolens is reported to be traditional in South America, especially in Ecuador. According to the local customs, it is used against the "mala energia" (bad energy) ("Palo Santo para limpiar tu casa de la mala energia, Palo Santo para la buena suerte" or "Palo Santo to clean your house of bad energy, Palo Santo for good luck").
The Palosanto (Bursera Graveolens) is a tree from the Ecuadorian dry forestes which was used by Chamans to cure many diseases; this is the reason why the Spanish that settled here call the tree "Santo".
Palo Santo (Bursera Graveolens) is an aromatic wood; Its smoke is used as a repellent to keep off mosquitoes, ants and other insects. It also cleans and help to remove the bad energy from the home, keep away evil spirits, induces meditation and spiritual search. The scent of Palo Santo is extremely soothing and transmits a powerful energy.
The Palosanto (Bursera Graveolens) is a tree from the Ecuadorian dry forests which was used by Chamans to cure many diseases; this is the reason why the Spanish that settled here call the tree "Santo". If we think of the body like a house where we live, we can take into consideration the ancient rituals based on Palo Santo as the ancient peoples lacked knowledge of illnesses which to them were all products of bad energy.
Incense made without harming the Palo Santo tree. We only process wood that has been found to have died naturaly in the forest. Tree grows for about 40 years and then dies. Then, it has to lay down for about 10 more years before we can process it.
Ten years ago it started an investigation about the history and properties of the Palo Santo tree located in Puerto Lopez County, in the Manabi Province. Nowadays, at that same place there's an interesting reforestation project taking place, which is trying to rescue the forgotten tradition of planting for tomorrow.
Unlike other species, the Palo Santo must fall by its own in order to extract the Palo Santo Essential oils and also get incense sticks which are used in aromatherapy . In this process not a single tree is cut down, doing so causes it to lose its properties. The wood that falls is what The Artisan PaloSanto EcuadorianHands uses to manufacture the products, and despite the fact that we don't deforest, we do feel the responsibility to return to nature those fallen trees.
We therefore support the Reforestation Project in Puerto Lopez, through a percentage of money generated by the sale of the products of Palo Santo, which is goes directly to the project. This funding enabled the creation of a greenhouse 6 years ago. Since then an estimated 40,000 trees have been planted. Many of these have been delivered to schools, colleges, institutions, Municipality of Puerto Lopez and even the Machalilla National Park, while the rest have given to people in a more individually way.
In addition to helping preserve the environment, the sale of Palo Santo has allowed the training of artisans who work in the whole process of production of the various items. There are about 25 people who receive a fair salary and claim to be happy with their work situation and committed to deliver a quality product.
The ultimate goal is to be able to create a forest of Palo Santo for everyone, which will generate oxygen and household work for the local people. Artisans are the ones who will execute the project and thus must continue their training and develop a culture of long-term preservation. All these activities are very important to secured the long-lasting supply of this natural Essential oil.
At the moment we are working on the paperwork and all the necessary permits to keep detailed records of all the advancements of the program. However, in the future customers who purchase Palo Santo products will be certain of their support to the environment through a satellite map which will show the places where the trees are being replanted.
What we have outlined here is a visionary project, the path is not easy, but it is important that we support the work of the craftsmen who still live in harmony with nature and take care of our only home, Earth.
And you? Are you ready to adopt a Palo Santo tree and contribute to the protection of the environment? Get Palo Santo Essential Oils and Incense products and make the difference!
Great product
Amazing smell , high quality, great customer service. Always satisfied

Yes I know....another soup. I guess I am on some sort of soup binge because I went to the fruiterie this afternoon and kept grabbing things to make different soup with. I like making soup, it makes the house smell good and small clean up ( one pot). I can start it early and leave it on the stove for dinner. Plus it usually will last until the next day for lunch.
Sometimes it nice blended but I decided to grate the beet and cabbbage, eat it chunky style.
2 tbsp olive oil
1 onion- sliced
2 cloves garlic-minced
2 medium beets- peeled, grated
2 small potatoes- peeled. grated
2 cups red cabbage shredded
7 cups vegetable stock or water
1 tbsp dried dill
2 tbsp red wine vinegar
freshly ground pepper
sea salt
fresh parsley- chopped
In a large pot heat oil add oinon and garlic- saute until soft
add the rest of the ingredients and bring to a boil. simmer until veggies are done (not mushy)
season with sea salt, pepper and parsley.

Monkey Jesus lady, you gave us one of our favourite things of 2012: the botched restoration of a 19th century fresco called "Ecce Homo" in an old Spanish church. If you, too, are a fan of the work of Cecilia Gímenez, here's some welcome news: You can buy her original art on eBay.
The piece is called Last Bodegas de Borja, and obviously it wasn't painted with the flair of the her restoration. But you can bid on it, starting at 710 euro if you're interested. And you should be, because this woman is amazing. [eBay via Daily Dot]

Will I judge you or ….
We have a choice. We live in a culture where we are all critics. It is an easy trap to fall into to judge people. We don't like to use the word "judge" but that is what it is all about. Jesus is clear that we shouldn't live that way.
The choice to make is love. We must love and not judge.
"If you judge people, you have no time to love them."~~ Mother Teresa
Not caring …
It is easier to deal with someone who clearly hates you than someone who just doesn't care. We have an enemy who hates us and yet we go through most days ignoring that. We have a Father who loves like there is no tomorrow. Humans seem to have the unique capacity for apathy.
May I love like my Father.
"The opposite of love is not hate, its indifference." ~~C.S. Lewis
What must we do?
It is a fairly reasonable question. We come to Jesus. From our religious culture and upbringing we ask "What must we do?"
We have been told our whole life, go to church, pray, fast, be religious. The focus is on doing. It is more than just a religious culture. It is the way of life in America. So, what does God require? Good question.
Jesus wants us to work at believing in Him. It is all about the relationship with him and not what we do. We must believe. That leads to His new plan. His mission will fill us when we know He cares for us.
Then they asked him, 'What must we do to do the works God
requires?'Jesus answered, 'The work of God is this: to believe in the
one he has sent.' (John 6:26-29 NIV)

The Wild & Scenic Film Festival is now touring around the country. Worse Than Poop! plays tonight in El Segundo, CA, and on April 10 in Staunton, Virginia.
Behind the scenes of the Pooping Cars movie
The Wild & Scenic Film Festival is now touring around the country. Worse Than Poop! plays tonight in El Segundo, CA, and on April 10 in Staunton, Virginia.
Today, humans are creating more than 38 billion tons of carbon pollution every year - in fact, over 2 million pounds of it gets spewed into the air every second. This massive amount of pollution is now threatening the climate that all life depends on, and in the US, almost a third of that pollution comes from transportation. But the problem with CO2 is that you can't see it, you can't smell it, you can't taste it - and that makes it hard for people to take it seriously. But what if you could see it? What if the 19 pounds of crap coming out of your car's tailpipe was... crap?
Elliot Ingle, a bespectacled 8-year old wearing a necktie and lab coat, takes us on a short journey to imagine just such a reality. Using a combination of live action video and animation, "Worse than Poop" will illustrate basic scientific facts (why DOES a gallon of gas produce 19 pounds of CO2? How is that possible - and where does it go?). It will also work to undermine some outmoded cultural norms (what's a better status symbol - a poo-spattered Lexus or a spiffy clean Tesla - or a fun shiny bike with a cool sidecar?). Featuring mom's minivan (one pound of poo per mile!), the lumbering Suburban (19 pounds of poop in only 10 miles!), the Tesla S (faster than a speeding Captain Underpants!), the Nissan Leaf, the Mitsubishi i, and a flotilla of electric and people-powered bicycles and scooters, "Worse than Poop" will engage children ages 5-12 in the most important issue of our time: rejection of the fossil fuel lifestyle.
It's bound to make a difference. I mean, what kid doesn't love talking about poop?
Climate change facts, what is climate change, climate change definition.

Kid's Aquarium Contest is a captivating learning program designed to teach children about the freshwater environment, stimulate their minds, ignite their creativity and warm their hearts through the rewards of pet care.
The Kid's Aquarium Contest sponsored by Tetra and Marineland
The first building block of the Kid's Aquarium Contest is CREATIVITY. The children are challenged to design a fish aquarium that reflects their personality or showcases their favorite hobby. Pirates of the Caribbean, a baseball field and outer space adventures are a few that have received top ranks. Ten gallon freshwater aquarium kits complete with a filter, lighting, heater, thermometer and net are donated and sponsored for each entrant by aquatic companies.
When the children arrive at Aquatic Experience we ignite the second element within this learning program – RESPONSIBILITY. The Aquatic Experience team members assist the children as they prepare a personalized habitat for their fish. Our aquatic experts explain the basic care guidelines and empower each child to become a responsible pet owner.
The Kid's Aquarium Contest not only enhances their understanding of freshwater aquatic care, it also teaches them the importance of a balanced ecosystem by understanding what factors are essential for a healthy fish environment. Those similar lessons can be applied to their own environment. Correlating a fun animal experience with the ENVIRONMENT is another benefit of this program.
Children from the ages 5 to16 are encouraged to join the competition. Aquariums will be lined up spotlighting the children's creations. This healthy form of competition is a rewarding way to develop their SELF ESTEEM. Every contestant is rewarded in many ways – ribbons are given to all the children, each tank creation is theirs to keep and the pride of being an active citizen in community events will reward them for a lifetime.

In the Country of the Blind
In the 19th century, a small group of American idealists managed to actually build Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine and use it to develop Cliology, mathematical models that could chart the likely course of the future. Soon they were working to alter history's course as they thought best.
By our own time, the Society has become the secret master of the world. But no secret can be kept forever, at least not without drastic measures. When her plans for some historic real estate lead developer and ex-reporter Sarah Beaumont to stumble across the Society's existence, it's just the first step into a baffling and deadly maze of conspiracies.

Excelent Histoircal Conspiracy Novel
If you enjoy books about "secret histories", competing "spy" agencies, and general chaos, this is a good book to get into.
In the first half of the book the main character discovers some historical oddities that pique her curiosity, and she starts researching the issue. She discovers that over a hundred years ago a group of scientists figured out how to predict the future, and thus how to control it. Of course the descendants of that cabal are none too pleased when they discover her digging into their secrets, and pretty soon she's running for her life.
The second half of the book is where the real fun starts, as gradually everyone who thought they were in complete control of not only their own destiny but that of the world itself gradually discover just how wrong they were.
Pleasantly the book is not _all_ about the conspiracies and the spying and the chasing. The characters also take time to discuss the ethics and implications of being able to predict the future. Different characters have different opinions about what it means in terms of free will and human rights and such, and although the debates can get a bit heated at time there is no real "winner" and no particular opinion is put forth as being the definitive right answer.
The only shortcoming of the book is the end. A gradually escalating web of conflicting conspiracies turns into a a chase scene in the last couple chapters, The survival of the main character is at stake, but the actual not-quite-resolution of the greater issues is handled in the epilogue. I still think the books is well worth reading, just be forewarned that the conclusion might not be quite as satisfying as you might like. (cf. Neal Stephenson.)
Also, the main character is a bit of a Mary Sue. She's a successful realtor and ex-reporter who's also an expert computer programer and a wilderness survival expert on the side. Oh yes, and she can play the piano.
And for those who appreciate such things, the cast is somewhat diverse. The main character is black and the secondary main character, who is not introduced till later in the book, is gay. (He starts off slightly campy, but grows as the story progresses.)

A book that has lost nothing with time.
Michael Flynn is a very accomplished writer and I have several of his books in hardback or paperback form. This is a classic conspiracy theory that maintains Charles Babbage's "difference engine" was built and used to change history. The Babbage story in itself is fascinating and worth reading and a number of replicas do work but they are advanced calculating machines rather than computers. This is a book where you have to switch worlds to a parallel time and immerse yourself for a reasonably complex plot and some taut action about the way organizations rise and fall, split and admit to human weaknesses. Mr. Flynn conveys the outdoors in a very beautiful manner. This is not a book for everyone but rewards the diligent reader.

Studying for the LSAT / LSAT as compared to the other one I took« on: June 08, 2009, 08:59:39 PM »
I was much more prepared, and without talking about the content on the LSAT. There was 1 game section on the LG that was completely impossible and it was impossible in that they asked questions on the guy who didn't get defined and that's all im saying without giving anything away which made things completely hectic. The other 3 games were basic and nothing special. Hoping for a 20/23 on there.
The LR sections were below average and probably some of the easier ones I've seen from PrepTest 30-38.
Had a RC experimental section, I knew as I was doing it that it was the experimental because of the question count. There was no way that they were going to allow that many RC questions on the test.
Having LG be my first section made me excited, but the one game disappointed me so.
Finished all the sections, our proctors even let us drink water and eat during the LSAT. It was great. Most relaxed atmosphere ever.
The RC with the Fractural Geometry was not as hard as most people are making it out to be, a lot of it was easily deciphered in the text and really could have been anything written there, the fractural geometry was just there to throw some people off because it was math. If you found the conclusions, you were fine.
Other than that, I'm just hoping the curve is fair, because it was not that hard of a test.
