India named Global Host of World Environment Day 2011
Nairobi (Kenya), 22 February 2011 - The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) today announced that India, with one of the fastest growing economies in the world that is embracing the process of a transition to a Green Economy, will be for the first time ever the global host of World Environment Day 2011 (WED) on 5 June.
This year's theme 'Forests: Nature at Your Service' underscores the intrinsic link between quality of life and the health of forests and forest ecosystems. The WED theme also supports this year's UN International Year of Forests.
India is a country of 1.2 billion people who continue to put pressure on forests especially in densely populated areas where people are cultivating on marginal lands and where overgrazing is contributing to desertification.
But the Indian Government has also found solutions. While the socio-economic pressures on the country's forests are tremendous, India has instituted a tree-planting system to combat land-degradation and desertification, including windbreaks and shelterbelts to protect agricultural land.
In conserving its critical ecosystem, India has successfully introduced projects that track the health of the nation's plants, animals, water and other natural resources, including the Sunderbans - the largest deltaic mangrove forest in the world, and home to one of India's most iconic wildlife species: the tiger.
India has also launched a compensation afforestation programme under which any diversion of public forests for non-forestry purposes is compensated through afforestation in degraded or non-forested land. The funds received as compensation are used to improve forest management, protection of forests and of watershed areas. Moreover, a government authority has been created specifically to administer this programme.
Achim Steiner, UN Under-Secretary General and UNEP Executive Director, said: "Over close to the 40-year history of WED, India's cities and communities have been among the most active with a myriad of events undertaken across the country each and every year - so it is only fitting that this rapidly developing economy is the host in 2011."
"India is famous for its culture, arts, movies and world-beating Information Technology industries. Increasingly it is at the forefront of some of the 'green shoots' of a Green Economy that are emerging across the globe," he said.
"From its manufacturing of solar and wind turbines to its Rural Employment Guarantee Act which underwrites paid work for millions of households via investments in areas ranging from water conservation to sustainable land management, foundations are being laid towards a fundamental and far reaching new development path," added Mr. Steiner.
This is underlined by India's introduction of the Clean Energy Fund into its national budget which provides subsidies for green technology and has been the basis for a National Action Plan on Climate Change which sets specific targets on issues such as energy efficiency and sustaining the Himalayan eco-system.
India is currently planning one of the largest green energy projects in the world that will generate 20,000 megawatts of solar energy and 3,000 megawatts from wind farms on 50,000 acres in Karnataka in southwest India. The first phase of the US$50 billion project will start next year.
In its ground-breaking report on the Green Economy launched yesterday, UNEP cites India and the US$8 billion National Rural Employment Guarantee Act, which underwrites at least 100 days of paid work, benefiting close to 60 million rural households.
"India's offer to host WED is another expression of India's strong commitment to work with the global community for sustainable development. This event will serve as the inauguration of a series of events leading up to the hosting of the 11th Conference of Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity. It will also flag off the celebrations of the international decade for biodiversity. This will in addition signal India's commitment to the biomass economy so dependent on the sustainability of our natural resources," said Dr. T. Chatterjee, Secretary for Environment and Forests of the Government of India.
Two of India's most prominent cities - Mumbai and Delhi - will be the venue for this year's global celebration of the environment, with a myriad of activities over several days to inspire Indians and people around the world to take action for the environment.
The celebrations in India on 5 June are part of thousands of events taking place around the globe. WED 2011 will emphasize how individual actions can have an exponential impact, with a variety of activities ranging from school tree-planting drives to community clean-ups, car-free days, photo competitions on forests, bird-watching trips, city park clean-up initiatives, exhibits, green petitions, nationwide green campaigns and much more.
This year UNEP plans to make WED 2011 into a bigger celebration than ever before, building on the unprecedented success of WED 2010 - when people in more than 112 countries registered activities on the WED website and WED was thrust into the blogo-sphere with the first-ever WED- blogging competition.
The WED 2011 website will inspire, inform and involve people through unprecedented interactivity, offering daily tips, information and statistics on forest conservation, a platform where people around the world can register their activities, social networking campaigns and competitions to get people on every continent involved. See: www.unep.org\WED. Anyone can organize an event and register it on the WED website, and each of these individual actions when taken collectively will go a long way to securing important forests services for generations to come.

Notes to Editors:
About World Environment Day (WED):
Last year's global host, Rwanda - a country of exceptional biodiversity that has made huge strides on environmental protection - led the celebrations with three days of keynote events. Thousands of activities were also organized worldwide from Hong Kong to Abidjan, with beach clean-ups, concerts, exhibits, film festivals, community events and much more.
2011 has been declared by the United Nations as the International Year of
Forests. And World Environment Day this year will reinforce this global concern
with the official tagline - Forests: Nature at Your Service.
Forests cover one third of the earth's land mass, performing vital functions and services around the world which make our planet alive with possibilities. In fact, 1.6 billion people depend on forests for their livelihoods. They play a key role in our battle against climate change, releasing oxygen into the atmosphere while storing carbon dioxide.
Forests feed our rivers and are essential to supplying the water for nearly 50% of our largest cities. They create and maintain soil fertility and they help to regulate the often devastating impact of storms, floods and fires.
Splendid and inspiring, forests are the most biologically diverse ecosystems on land, and are home to more than half of the terrestrial species of animals, plants and insects.
Forests also provide shelter, jobs, security and cultural relevance for forest-dependent populations. They are the green lungs of the earth, vital to the survival of people everywhere - all seven billion of us.
Forests embody so much of what is good and strong in our lives. Yet despite all of these priceless ecological, economic, social and health benefits, we are destroying the very forests we need to live and breathe.
Global deforestation continues at an alarming rate - every year 13 million hectares of forest are destroyed. That's equal to the size of Portugal.
Short-term investments for immediate gains (i.e. logging) compound these losses. People who depend on forests for their livelihoods are struggling to survive. Many precious species face extinction. Biodiversity is being obliterated. What's more, economists around the world have proven that by not integrating the values of forests into their budgets, countries and businesses are paying a high price. One that ultimately impoverishes us all as harm to our forest life-support system continues each and every single day.
But this trend is not irreversible. It's not too late to transform life as we know it into a greener future where forests are at the heart of our sustainable development and green economies.
Conserving forests and expanding them need to be recognized as a business opportunity. When we add it up, an investment of US$30 billion fighting deforestation and degradation could provide a return of US$2.5 trillion in new products and services.
Furthermore, targeted investments in forestry could generate up to 10 million new jobs around the world. Already, many leaders are glimpsing the potential for renewable energy and nature-based assets, but for transformation to happen, forests need to become a universal political priority.
The services forests provide are essential to every aspect of our quality of life and individual action can result in exponential impact, so do your part!

The Emery County Relay for Life recently held their 2009 kick-off party.
This year's relay will be held on June 12-13. They have set a goal to raise $40,000 with high hopes of being able to raise $50,000. If every household in Emery County donated one dollar they would be able to exceed this goal.
They also hope to have at least 40 teams signed up for the relay. The cost to sign up a team is $100. Teams can have three-15 people on them.
They still have some committee positions open and are looking for volunteers to fill them.
This year's luminary chair is Brenda Jensen. Anyone interested in purchasing luminaries should contact Brenda.
They are excited to have former senator and astronaut Jake Garn and former Miss Utah 2007 Heather Anderson, along with Hilary Gordon of Huntington as their keynote speakers.

Submitting a Proposal
Collaborative for Research Education
The proposal submission process is a 4 step process that involves the PI, department staff, OSP and sponsor systems. The role descriptions for this work are listed in GIM 1.
- The SAGE (System to Administer Grants Electronically) eGC1 with draft proposal attached are routed to OSP for institutional review.
- The SAGE eGC1 with final proposal attached is routed back to OSP for institutional approval and submission to the sponsor.
- OSP submits the proposal using authorized access to Grants.gov and sponsor systems, or attaches a signed face page or letter to the eGC1 for the PI/Dept.
- OSP approves the eGC1, locking down most data elements, and saves a copy of the submitted application to SAGE (System to Administer Grants Electronically).
See Using the eGC1.
PI Assurances
By approving an eGC1, a PI makes assurances and certification to the University about the proposal. See PI Assurances made on eGC1 for a complete list.
What is Ready to Submit?
Ready to submit is defined as a full and complete proposal in final format that is ready for submission to the sponsor. This includes all completed required sponsor forms, components, sections, and attachments, per sponsor program announcement and policy.
Ready to Submit proposals must have the following:
- Documents must be in the order required by the sponsor
- The eGC1 marked "Yes" for the Ready to Submit question
- The eGC1 in "In OSP" status.

Prince to Shower Purple Rain on Pirate Bay, eBay and YouTube
Jason Mick
November 19, 2007 3:56 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Prince is know for his unusual sense of style and funky jams, loving and partying. Now he be known in the file sharing community as "the man".
(Source: Prince)
The prince tells the Pirate Bay "Party over, oops out of time"
The Pirate Bay is the Internet's largest Torrent tracker, and has been for some time now. However while other trackers and piracy advocates tend not last very long, The Pirate Bay is actively stirring the pot.
For a short time the organization
tried to raise money to buy the island nation of Sealand
, and more recently it
obtained the ifpi.com domain
, formerly occupied by the IFPI, the RIAA's parent affiliate. However, its legal battles have come to boil, with Swedish authorities issuing charges against
five Pirate Bay admins
-- only two of which have actually been identified.
Now The Pirate Bay has a surprising new nemesis in the form of the chest-baring, fashioning setting, funk-rock jammer Prince. Prince, recently gave away his album for free in the British newspaper the
Mail On Sunday
infuriating his record label
Now Prince has taken a surprising stand in the other direction.
Prince Rogers Nelson sees it as his right to defend his copyrights against all who might dare commit what he sees as infringements upon them.
Prince plans to
launch a triad of attacks
, with lawsuits in the U.S., Sweden, and France (France, being known for its strong copyright protections), which aims to put The Pirate Bay's funky feel-good days to an end. Prince is also suing companies who advertise on The Pirate Bay.
Prince added some hired guns in the form of John Giacobbi, President of Web Sheriff, and the rest of Web Sheriff to help coordinate his fiery legal onslaught upon on the pirates.
Giacobbi already launched into allegations stating that The Pirate Bay makes $70,000 monthly in advertising revenue, a charge The Pirate Bay denies.
The Pirate Bay is not the only one who Prince is hoping to make cry like a wounded dove. Prince stated his desire to "reclaim the Internet" and in recent months has become a champion for militant copyright protection, announcing that he would take
legal action against YouTube and Ebay
, as well as The Pirate Bay.
YouTube chief counsel, Zahavah Levine, apparently unimpressed by Prince's legal wrath issued a unconcerned response, "Most content owners understand that we respect copyrights. We work every day to help them manage their content, and we are developing state-of-the-art tools to let them do that even better. We have great partnerships with major music labels all over world that understand the benefit of using YouTube as another way to communicate with their fans."
The Pirate Bay also responded, with Pirate Bay admin brokep stating that the organization was not been contacted by Prince, and that Web Sheriff has been sending them take down notices for a prolonged period, which The Pirate Bay's filtering software conveniently trashes.
However, even with the world's greatest funkmaster on their heels, all is business as usual at The Pirate Bay. Just last week prosecuters in Sweden
vowed to take action against the organization
, even though the site continues to adhere to Swedsh copyright laws.
Giacobbi, of Web Sheriff countered, "They'll either have to come out and fight or just try and ignore it. In that case, we're going to win a default judgment against them. This could be a ticking time bomb for them. They can't outrun this. We are very confident."
There have also been
unconfirmed reports
of Prince shutting down fan web sites for use of his images, lyrics, songs, or likeness.
"We basically took a look at this situation and said, this is bullshit." -- Newegg Chief Legal Officer Lee Cheng's take on patent troll Soverain

Breaking bread, mending fences
"Snark" being the default language of the Twitterverse, the announcement that President Obama and former Republican challenger Mitt Romney will share a private lunch together at the White House Thursday has hastened all sorts of cynical sniping:
"Romney to receive gift of free government lunch with the President tomorrow."
"Romney and Obama to have lunch. The White House chef is preparing right wings and welfare rolls."
"Lunch with Romney would be more of a reconciliation if WH invited Big Bird too."
Easy laughs, but the campaign is over. Obama is being gracious in inviting the man who fought to unseat him, and Romney is likewise showing class in accepting.
It's likely too much to hope, but some sort of public role for Romney would go a long way toward adding wind to the sails of political compromise that are only just fluttering in these post-election days. At the very least, the former opponents are setting a much-needed example for their party leaders (Sens. Reid, McConnell? Are you paying attention?).
In any event, I hope this mid-day meal goes well; Washington has a lot on its plate.

American Standard has changed the Flush Tower detail by cutting back the flange above the silicone seal. The seal now suspends the tower when the valve is closed. This appears to let the seal conform better to irregularities. For those not familiar with the problem, the original flush towers leak intermittently. This may cause the fill valve to turn on every 15 minutes to every 6 hours. If your toilet is used more frequently than the refill rate, you may never notice the flush valve leak. A subtler symptom of the problem is a weak flush caused by the lower water level.

"These boots are stunningly beautiful, incredibly comfy and an all around great casual as well as dressy boot. I bought them in brown and they are a slightly rosier brown, vs a dark chocolate brown. I could have bought then 1/2 size smaller, but they were too great to send back. Love, love, love these boots!

Some of the simplest computing devices made and sold are aids to counting. From ancient to early modern times, scribes performing calculations moved small stones or metal tokens along lines. More recently, mechanical counters have been widely used to count crowds and objects, and as parts of machines.
In the nineteenth century, several inventors patented mechanical counters. Patent models surviving in the Mathematics Collections at the National Museum of American History suggest the range of their concerns. Paul Stillman in 1854 and Daniel Davies and Edward Wright in 1876 patented improvements in rotary measures, such as were used in revolution counters for steam engines. In 1874, Alexander Atkinson patented a counting register to help track quantities of grain. As the amount of leisure time available to Americans increased, three inventors around 1880 saw fit to patent counters to keep score in games.
By the turn of the century, mechanical revolution counters were incorporated in laboratory apparatus, in factories using engines, in distance measures such as odometers, and in cash registers. Americans manufactured them and imported them from abroad. Government offices bought and made counters to compile statistics, and employers used them to figure out the bills and coins they needed to meet payroll. Of course counters were incorporated in a wide range of vehicles and meters. Handheld counters are used to this day to count people entering and leaving buildings and on public transit.
D. Baxandall, rev, J. Pugh, Calculating Machines and Instruments, London: Science Museum, 1975, p. 66.
Examples of counting tokens are in the Smithsonian's National Numismatics collection.
"Counters - Introduction" showing 1 items.
Payroll Counter or Denominator
- Description
- At a time when employers paid workers in cash, knowing the combination of bills and coins needed to meet a payroll was a challenge. The Denominator, a device for counting items in classes, eased that task and similar cash payments. It consists of a set of eleven counters, each with a separate operating key. Six keys are for values of cents, and five for dollar values. Behind each key are three wheels; the value shown by the wheels increases by one each time the key is pressed. The keys are marked: $20; $10; $5; $2; $1; 50¢; 25¢; 10¢; 5¢; 3¢; 1¢.
- A steel wing nut on the left side zeros when rotated. On the right side is a space for a sheet of forms.
- A mark on the top behind the wheels reads: DENOMINATOR (/) PATENTS PENDING. A mark in front of the keys reads: DENOMINATOR ADDING MACHINE CO. (/) 224-226 SHEPHERD AVE. BROOKLYN, N.Y. A mark on the wing nut reads: 2249.
- The Denominator Adding Machine Company of Brooklyn, N.Y. is listed in Thomas's Register of American Manufacturers from 1916 through at least 1928. According to Martin, it originated in 1915. William A. Cook of Hollis, N.Y, and Joseph Levine of Brooklyn, N.Y., applied for a patent for a "denominating apparatus" March 9, 1921. Their invention closely resembles this product. When the patent was granted in 1923, they assigned it to the Denominator Adding Machine Company. The date of this patent application is taken as the approximate date of the object.

A personal tragedy was the reason I started listening to a genre of music that I ignored most of my life. My self-administered jazz therapy eventually turned into a passion and zeal that even I can't understand sometimes.
Now, I am some sort of new millennium disciple of jazz. There is just so much music to discover and to share: big band, swing, bebop, cool jazz, hard bop, modal jazz, Afro-Cuban, Brazilian jazz, acid jazz, post bop, soul jazz, gospel jazz, and funk.
Yes, I have fallen "hard" for it.
My appreciation for this music grows on a daily basis, especially when I hear it performed live. There are few things more enjoyable than live music and watching a jazz set is totally sublime.
I created a website, Elements of Jazz, in early 2010 with the intention of exploring new music, learning about the musicians and the projects they work on.
There is a vibrant, sexy world of jazz out there. Want to find out more about it? Let's find out about it together.
These are the most read, shared and discussed blog posts on GRAMMY.com right now.

Skip to comments.Edwards Admits Sexual Affair; Lied as Presidential Candidate
Posted on 08/08/2008 11:58:58 AM PDT by xp38
ohn Edwards repeatedly lied during his Presidential campaign about an extra-marital affair with a novice film-maker, the former Senator admitted to ABC News today.
(Excerpt) Read more at abcnews.go.com ...
oops ohn should read John
A feminine Bill Clinton.
Elizabeth is gonna end up owning a REALLY big house!
Two Americas, Two Women, etc.
In an interview for broadcast tonight on Nightline, Edwards told ABC News correspondent Bob Woodruff he did have an affair with 42-year old Rielle Hunter, but said that he did not love her.
Edwards also denied he was the father of Hunter's baby girl, Frances Quinn, although the one-time Democratic Presidential candidate said he has not taken a paternity test.
Edwards said he knew he was not the father based on timing of the baby's birth on February 27, 2008. He said his affair ended too soon for him to have been the father.
A former campaign aide, Andrew Young, has said he was the father of the child.
Not only that, Liz will get half of Johnny's hair and body wash kit.
Good one; excellent.
If all you follow is the MSM.
That's why everybody should sign a prenup.
She'll finally get a mirror to herself.
So the Silk Pony has a (undoubtedly small) pair after all. I noticed how he waited for "Take out the Trash Day" (Friday) to cop to the truth.
The interview will run during the opening ceremonies of the summer olympics...smart move, as it won't really be noticed, but does he really think this is going to be forgotten?
If he were VP now would he resign?
KEYWORDS: alreadyposted; duplicate; notbreaking; oldnews; pulled; reapeat; trysearch;
I see some Thread Cop smartass doesn't know how to spell "repeat".
Get over it!
John Edwards can't be mentioned without this:
Well, it's his personal business and he only lied about sex and he did it to spare his family.
- Democrat Spin Manual, Chapter 4 Page 37.
So that made it okay??
What a slime.
Unfortunately, if her condition is terminal as reported, she won't be around to enjoy it. Sad.
And ABC News is also reporting he denies the child is his and the affair had previously ended. (If so why did you go visit her this summer, John??)
Wifey pointed the same thing out....3pm EDT on a Friday.
Uh oh, she's a novice filmmaker? You know what that means.
Pr0n tape at www.
c00ming soon.
I kinda like "ohn" since the Enquirer has been ohn to something all along...
And he's STILL LYING !!
Claims "he does not love her"
Claims he is not the father.
implied the affair was in the past.
Claims he isn't paying her to keep quiet.
So what the hell would he doing in the hotel room of a ex-mistress, with whom he has no romantic or financial ties, who someone else had subsequently knocked up, at two thirty in the morning?
Late Friday news cycle....the ole Clinton trick.
"A former campaign aide, Andrew Young, has said he was the father of the child."
Gads...she's a frickin groupie. Probably got hired for this "pass-around" attitude.
Campaigns and rock-and-roll tours. Now we know why BillyJeff wants to keep campaigning.
Wierd. That's Chelsea Clinton's birthday.
As for Edwards, a 28,000 sq ft house probably has its share of places he could endure without ever having to face Liz....
and a special Olympics spin cycle to boot
Terminal doesn't necessarily mean her demise is coming soon, though. For example, my mother had the same condition, with the cancer going to areas where it could not be eliminated, but with treatment, lived for another 15 years. My mother, unlike Ms. Edwards, was older, needed two hip replacements, and ultimately died of an infection due to kidney disease. The cancer was terminal in the sense that she still had it, but it did not kill her, despite all of the years that passed.
It is really tragic for a family to be drug through the mud so publicly. Prayers for the Edwards family to work this out in the best interest of the children.
It was probably another pathetic, liberal infiltrator. The poor spelling was the first clue.
A man who cheats on his wife is no kind of man. A man who cheats on his dyng wife is below fecal matter.
So is the Breck Girl going to end up on Maury Povitch in his latest "Is he my baby daddy?" episode?
Edwards lied, love child cried!
You're not actually falling for Edwards's story, are you?
I hope it doesn't further exacerbate her cancer trouble. He is not a candidate. This shouldn't be all over the news.
Yep, VP's the plan alright. If I were Obama I'd need a vacation about now myself...
Thats what I was thinking. This broad was knocking socks with the whole crew.

Founding book club member, 90, turns a page
Thursday, April 19, 2012
WENATCHEE — On the day before her 90th birthday, Ruth Gardner sat with her book club and described the day she learned about, ahem, the facts of life. The book lovers were all ears.
"I was sitting on a bench reading a sex education book for kids, about how the male part went into the female part, and I was absolutely shocked," she said, twinkle in her eye, in answer to a series of cheeky birthday questions posed by book club members.
"I knew about male anatomy — after all, I took care of my little brothers and bathed them all the time — but this new information about what fit where completely floored me," she laughed. "I thought, 'No way, not happening.' Of course, I hadn't considered the whole thing about marriage."
About eight decades later — not to mention six kids, 17 grandkids and 15 great-grandkids — Gardner is still learning about the world through books. But not much shocks her anymore.
"You get to be my age, and it takes more than a little to give me a surprise," she said.
But she was a bit wide-eyed Wednesday when the other 24 members of the Wenatchee Public Library's Brown Bag Book Club unveiled a surprise 90th birthday party. It came (one day early) complete with member Dana Schmidt's upside-down cake, Golden Delicious apples from member Nick Davis' orchard and glasses of sparkling pomegranate juice.
"I should have guessed this bunch would have something up their sleeves," joked Gardner, a founding member of the club.
Over the last decade, Brown Bag has matured into the largest and one of the oldest of 315 book clubs at the 28 branches of the North Central Regional Library system, said Paula Walters, book club coordinator for NCRL.
Clubs choose from the library's growing list of over 1,000 titles — classics, bestsellers, fiction, nonfiction, kids books — for which NCRL has bought multiple copies to feed the discussion groups' ravenous reading habits.
In September, Brown Bag will celebrate a decade of book discussion — one book a month, 120 titles in all and a zillion snappy comments on reading, writing and life in general.
"I've been reading good books all my life and won't quit now," said Gardner, a copy of this month's discussion title — "Half Broke Horses" by Jeannette Walls — sitting next to the 90-year-old's slice of birthday cake. "Reading's been one of my life's great pleasures."
Born in Chicago, Gardner lived in various places before marrying and moving with her husband to the Wenatchee Valley in 1966. Raising kids, they lived in Leavenworth, Wenatchee and East Wenatchee before settling in Malaga, where Gardner lived for 32 years. She now lives at Hearthstone Cottage, a retirement home in East Wenatchee.
At age 56, with most of her kids grown and gone, Gardner fulfilled a lifelong dream to become a registered nurse. Completing courses at Wenatchee Valley College and other schools, she dived into a 20-year career at a convalescent home in Cashmere.
In 1983 and 1984, she wrote and self-published her own book, a memoir entitled "I Weep for That Which Has Been My Delight." Her own examination of her life and writing of the book was triggered by the death of her son, Capt. Gregory Gardner, a military surgeon, in an airplane crash in 1981.
"Ruth's a treasure," said Librarian Kathy Holscher. "She's an inspiration to us all to lead full and varied lives."
On Wednesday, Gardner — mother, reader, nurse, author — joined in the lively book-club banter over "Half Broke Horses," the 15-year-old heroine's frontier journey on the back of a pony and a comparison, then and now, of the stuff mothers worry about today. Like bad food and bad people.
As comments grew more animated, Gardner rose, modestly thanked everyone and excused herself. Seems she was late for another book club meeting where another title was up for discussion.
"This is one of those busy days," smiled Gardner. "Two book club meetings — a double dose of fun in one afternoon. Sounds good to me."
I wanted all of you to see this wonderful article that was in the Wenatchee World yesterday. If you have time go to the online site as there is a sweet picture. What a fun book club meeting. Occasionally I am invited to vist this club. What a group of wonderful people, women and men. It is our largest club twenty plus members and growing. Eight to twelve is the ideal number for a book group but I am very impressed by this group. They are all very considerate of each other and all of the members get a chance to talk and they stay on track!!
I have been busy, busy, busy reading reading reading!! Once I have "all my ducks in a row" I will be sharing some of my favorites!! Happy Spring!!

Signature Initiatives work with key stakeholder groups, fostering collaborative development of innovative solutions to shared conservation problems. The initiatives create diverse, interdisciplinary teams of conservation professionals, community leaders, government officials, and others to address conservation threats at a grassroots level.
Mexico has identified training in conservation as the best hope for managing its natural resources. To meet this goal, in 2009, the Wildlife Without Borders-Mexico program and the Mexican government created three Signature Initiatives.
- Voices for Nature: Assisting Mexican officials to enact and implement sound and sustainable environmental legislation.
Managing for Excellence: Comprehensively training future natural area managers to improve the management of national parks and reserves.
- Stewards of the Land: Empowering subsistence farmers to conserve biodiversity on lands they own or lease.
The Teaming for People and Nature signature initiative provides a framework to provide real-world skills to future conservationists. The program aims to train graduate students in the region in leadership, management, communication, and community engagement while also providing practical on-the-ground training in a team environment
The MENTOR (Mentoring for ENvironmental Training in Outreach and Resource conservation) Program builds teams of emerging African conservation leaders to work collaboratively on conservation goals. Bringing together professionals from a variety of disciplines, this in-depth training builds the capacity of emerging leaders to address conservation problems from all angles. These projects include MENTOR/BEAN and MENTOR-FOREST.

|just one of Amy's iconic hippos. See more of her animals here.
This is Amy. Isn't she adorable? Ok, so this is actually just the face we know and love her by on Flickr, but you get the point. Soooo much personality. And lots of fun.
When I first contacted Badskirt Amy about joining in with our Scrap Attack Quilt-Along she was very upfront about having a "unique" perspective on scraps. She said, "I don't actually own a "scrap bin" of any sort. I work from FQs or 30cm strips, and cut off what I need as I use them. Reasonable size pieces are folded back into the fabric shelves rather than put into a scrap bin. If I don't think I'll use it, I give it to local friends who use them in craft fair projects for local school..."
Well, I couldn't leave that alone! I mean, here we are scrap attacking and there she is humming along with no
Rachel: Did you decide from the get go not to keep small scraps or was this approach something that developed over time? We want the full dish!
|Colour and Shape test, at Badskirt
Amy: I used to be a scrap keeper. When I started out, they filled one small tub. Then two. Then three... The theory was they were scraps and I could use them as I tested out patterns or new ideas. What I realized though is crap is at the core of the word scrap. And if it's crap, why keep it? To me a piece of fabric is either useful or it isn't. I either love it or I don't. I'm judicious now in deciding what I'll keep. If I have an offcut that's usable to me, then I fold it up neatly and put it back in my fabric stack. Otherwise it goes to donations, friends or sometimes the trash. (And friends have been known to pick through my sewing room trash in the hopes of finding little scraps.)
|part of Amy's stash
So I let them go and haven't looked back. My sewing room and sewing time is much more functional because of it. I don't have a hard and fast rule about what I keep. It's more of a mental checklist.
Me: Do you think you have less fabric diversity in your creations since you don't have a scrap stash? Or does donating scraps actually increase variety I wonder?
Amy: The truth is that I find having too much fabric paralyzing. As it stands, I have a large and usable stash. Let's be honest for a minute. If WW3 broke out tomorrow, I'm comfortable that I'd have enough fabric to survive a long war. That's not to say my stash is huge. It's not. As a lover of colour and design, I buy new fabric because I am enamoured with the print. I buy new fabric because it helps me move in a new creative direction or helps me explore colour, shape and scale. Buying new fabric is a good thing. By purging scraps and old fabric, I keep my stash in check. My stash is also evolving. Fabrics I like today are different to fabrics I liked three years ago. So I've adopted an "out with the old and in with the new" approach.
|Amy's tidy space
Me: From examining your notes on your stash picture (see notes on Flickr) it seems that you organize your fabrics sometimes by color and sometimes by project. Does it get pretty crazy in there sometimes? How easy is it for you to find things? Is an organized stash important to you anyways?
Amy: If you asked me last year about how crazy my studio got, I would have have a different answer. Today though, I can honestly say that I've found a system that works for me. I could walk in with my camera and take a photo and it would look much the same as the one shown. It is exceptionally well organized and tidy. I've tried a number of organizational methods. I've sorted purely by colour. I've sorted purely by size. I've sorted by designer. For me, I found those methods didn't gel with how I approach projects. While the themes seem random, I've mentally categorized all my fabric by potential future project. I know that the orange stripes are with the teal dots waiting for me to dive in to the road trip print. I know there's a stack of yellow and black intended for my pinwheel project. I know the nature prints are all near each other. Most importantly, I've mentally catalogued every piece of fabric in my stash. I'm lucky that the database in my brain is a good one. Aging has taken it's toll on historical dates, science formulas and mathematical thereoms; but I've still got a strong memory for my fabric.
|Cogwheel, a "random" block at Badskirt
An organized stash is important to me because it allows me to work without hangups. Pairing fabric is the slowest part of the creative process for me. Doing it in advance gives me a leg up when I'm ready to sew. The IKEA tubs that hold my stash work well for me because it keeps things organized and portable. I can easily move a stack of fabric from the shelves to my desk. I can easily grab a stack of fabric to take on the road for a camping trip or day at the beach. Tubs fit with my lifestyle.
Me: So be honest (and I know you will), do you ever wish you had small scraps when you see pictures of them piled on the cutting table or neatly gathered in bins or jars? Or... or... or.. is your honest reaction something along the lines of "thank goodness, not for me!" And, ok, also was there ever any project that made you wish you had saved scraps?
|Amy's most recent quilt, at Badskirt
Amy: I've been looking at the jars of fabric scraps in the Scrap Attack flickr group. They are admittedly pretty, but they aren't for me. What is great about quilting is that everyone can find their own niche. Some people are amazing when they work with tiny pieces. They bring out the best in those tiny morsels. Right now, I'm not one of those people and that's ok with me. I'm not turned off by their pictures, but I'm not envious either.
Thank-you, Amy, for letting me pick your brain over this scrap business. I don't know about you, folks, but I love mulling over a completely different and thoughtfully cultivated perspective like this. I do value the idea of letting one's stash "evolve" and perhaps sometimes the best way to accomplish that is to pass unwanteds along. I know I've felt that drag before... "I don't really like this, but maybe I could use it somehow???" Sometimes I do find a way to use it and to enjoy a project in spite of those feelings and sometimes I use it and regret it. Other times, Aria uses it!
Also, I think Amy's mental checklist for keeping or passing on fabrics is right on the money. What a freeing, self-aware way to live. If you likely won't use it, why keep it? Someone else might love it. There's no reason it should go to waste.
What I'll take away from this conversation is still-emerging. But, how about you? Hmmm? What do you take away? Shiny thoughts welcome!

The sun came out for the First SCC Wild and Wacky Shirt Day (a follow-up to last summer's Fancy Pants and Crazy Hat Day). Though the gathering was small, the enthusiasm and strange shirts were in abundance. The group had a few good giggles and drew attention from individuals passing by. Shirt wearers enjoyed (?) an old childhood treat – "Twinkies!"
The group gathered at the courtyard fountain for a photo opportunity and a chance to take the "Wildest and Wackiest Shirt" trophy back to their office.
At the end of a very tight race, the "shirts" from the Administration Building took home the top honors. First place went to Donna "Bathing Penguin Beauty" Myers and Sean "Rainbow Man" Duke and Phyllis "Samurai" Harris tied for second place. Supporting cast members (see photo) were Ann Martin-Cummins, Kelly Griffin, Joe Dugan and Kathy Langer.
Thanks to all those who dared to wear ridiculous shirts for the day - Lynn Yaw, Lanay Gard, Suzanne Gugger, Ritva Manchester, Bruce McCutcheon, Kim Chandler, Tony Costa and the rest of the gang already mentioned. See slideshow.

"Loved the picture of these shoes and I love sandals. Got them home and decided to wear them to work for casual Friday. HUGE mistake! There was absolutely no give or bend in the toe area of the sandal. I had the worst blisters on my feet on the bony part on the top of my feet at the end of the day. I thought I was going to die. Trying to figure out what to do with them to get some give. Even bending them didn't help. Suggestions anyone?"

"This shoe is very cute but it's not so comfortable. It's hard to keep on your feet and there is no structure to the shoe. I have to use my toe to grip the shoe to keep it from coming off and no they are not to big."

*Your pronation type is determined by the natural motion your feet apply throughout your running gait. When you pronate your foot rolls from either the outer edge, inner edge or not at all. If your foot rolls to the outer edge when you run, you are an underpronator, if it rolls to the inner edge you are a overpronator and if your foot doesn't roll at all you are a neutral or stable runner.

Great for bunions
"I have bunions, so I purchased these shoes in a wide width. The mesh overlay stretches over my bunions and doesn't constrict my feet. This shoe has been perfect for me as I'm recovering from foot surgery. It gives me enough support to walk with while isn't too tight for my slightly swollen foot since the mesh stretches."

Market check: Index futures point higher, gold's price leaps more than $30 to $1,428 and the yen weakens to the cusp of per dollar. Copper's price is down again, to $3.14, while natural gas loses 2% to $4.32.
Fund watch: The Group of 20 was docile on Japan's aggressive easing this weekend, which is helping pushing down the yen. "The dollar stopped short of achieving ¥100 on Monday failing at a peak of ¥99.70. However, it would seem that many traders expect the interim target to be reached at some point this week," writes Miller Tabak's Andrew Wilkinson. "The question is how quickly the yen falls upon triggering what Thomson Reuters described as a 'massive' volume of protective stops. As we saw with the price of gold lately, weakness breeds further weakness with yen holders likely to sell upon news that ¥100 has been triggered."

You live for descents, but you don't want to sacrifice the climbing ability of your trail bike just to enjoy coming back down. That's precisely why Fox built the 32 TALAS 150 FIT CTD Fork. This six-inch travel fork has plenty of support for rough descents, and the sub-four pound weight and adjustable travel mean that you'll be efficient when it comes time to pedal back up.
Like recent generations of Fox's Factory series forks, the TALAS 150 controls its stroke with the venerable FIT damper. As you may have guessed, 'FIT' is an acronym, and it stands for Fox Isolated Technology. And, unlike a traditional open bath system, FIT means that the damper fluid is sealed in an air-tight bladder. This prevents contamination, which improves the consistency of the damper on long descents.
Long-time Fox riders will immediately notice Fox's Climb, Trail, Descend damper adjustments. And there's no need to worry, you're still getting the same adjustments to high- and low-speed compression, only its now packaged in a more user-friendly format. Climb mode provides the most damping for a near locked-out feel. Meanwhile, it still provides a bit of cushion for any unexpected hard hits. Click the damper into the Trail mode, and you'll find that there's ample low-speed compression in order to keep the fork riding high in the travel through berms, jumps, and rocks. Better yet, it still provides plenty of compliance in order to smooth out the ride. Trail mode has three sub-settings that allow you to tune exactly how much feedback that you need from your suspension. And, as you may have guessed, Descend mode provides the lightest compression damping for a plush ride.
TALAS stands for Travel Adjust Linear Air Spring. And true to the name, a quick flip of the spring side fork cap adjusts the travel from 150mm to 120mm, and back again. Accordingly, the 120mm setting lowers the axle to crown height by 30mm. This effectively lowers your handlebars and bottom bracket, as well as steepening the head angle in order to improve climbing control. The reasoning behind this design is relatively elementary. You see, tall forks and slack head tube angles yield more control for descending, but make your bike unwieldy when climbing. This makes the TALAS' travel reduction especially important on the current generation of trail bikes. Additionally, Fox has updated the spring rate to provide more resistance to bottoming out than previous TALAS springs. So, this version of the TALAS is ideal for aggressive riders.
The 32 TALAS 150 features Kashima coated stanchions. Kashima coating is harder than standard stanchion coatings, which equates to a longer wear life, as well as smoother suspension action. The 32 chassis is something of a classic in the Fox lineup, and it's easy to see why. At just around four pounds, this fork is downright svelte. Better yet, it's strong enough to ride rough trails day- in and day-out. This is thanks in part to the massive tapered steerer tube, which fights flex under hard braking. And speaking of stiffness, Fox uses Shimano's 15mm QR axle assembly, which provides both added stiffness and increased security over a traditional 9mm QR skewer.
The Fox Racing Shox 32 TALAS 26in 150 FIT CTD Fork is available in 26-inch wheel compatibility, 1.5-inch tapered steerer tube, and a 15mm QR compatibility. Additionally, it's available in the color Black.

The Rev. Jesse Jackson says the National Rifle Association's call for armed police in schools is no solution to mass shootings.
Jackson reacted Friday after the NRA's top lobbyist said armed police were the only way to stop another tragedy like last week's mass slaying at a Connecticut elementary, where a gunman killed 20 students and six teachers.
Jackson says armed police officers "couldn't compete" with an attacker with an assault weapon, and that a ban on such weapons was needed.
He says he's disappointed that the NRA "showed no remorse" and offered more guns as a solution. He says bearing arms for hunting or self-defense is different from carrying assault weapons.
He says his Rainbow-Push Coalition will issue a call for marches outside gun shops nationwide this weekend.

Canada loses opening match at NORCECA Youth Volleyball Championships
GUADALAJARA, Mexico – Canada, represented by Calgary's under-17 Canuck Contact team, lost to the U.S., in its opening round robin match on Tuesday at the nine-country NORCECA men's youth volleyball championships.
The Americans, which are fielding a national team for the tournament, took the match 25-14, 25-17, 25-11. Matthew Silver was the top Canadian scorer with five points.
"We were excited and a little nervous," said Calgary's team captain William Bremner, making his international debut like all of his teammates. ¨We we wanted to play well and we hope to do better in the next games.¨
Calgary's coach Don Saxton says the match was a great experience for his young squad.
¨I felt very happy with our team, although physically, the Americans are stronger than us," said Saxton. "I felt good with our control of the ball and with passing. We´re in very good spirits even though we didn´t win today.¨
Canada completes its round robin portion of the tournament on Wednesday against Cuba. The playoff round starts Friday.
The other Canadian team members are: Brett Walsh, Brian Prigden, Alex Cook, Luke Rauwarda, Scott Brunet, Sean Martin, Taylor Lebo, Evan Morrow, Matt Traynor and Matt Honeychurch.

"I previously purchased the New Blanace 890 sneakers and they were awesome. Very soft and light. These 695 are okay. the silver part is a harder plastic. The sole is thinner than in the picture and much harder than the 890's. They also make noise when walking like plastic tapping the floor. the fit itself was fine but i think i'll go back to the 890 for future purchases."

NB: This version has been replaced by Sandra 2011.
London, UK, November 26th 2009 - We are pleased to launch SiSoftware Sandra 2010, the latest version of our award-winning utility, which includes remote analysis, benchmarking and diagnostic features for PCs, servers, mobile devices and networks.
At SiSoftware from version to version we focus four key areas of software development to make sure we give our users the best software experience. Quite simply our four drivers are:
Looking at these in more detail:
1. It would have hardly been possible in the last few months to have not noticed the release of Windows 7. SiSoftware has been developing against both the betas and release candidate of Windows 7 to ensure compatibility even before the launch of Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2.
Over the last year, we have seen a huge growth in server consolidation and virtualisation: SiSoftware has responded to this by including support for not just one but five (5) different virtualisation technologies. These are:
2. Since last year much new hardware has been released and the SiSoftware team continue to work on including support for new hardware as well as software in the latest version. There are always too many items, but to name a few:
Those running Windows 7 and Windows Vista will notice improved graphics and GPGPU support, including DirectX 11 Compute Shader/DirectCompute, OpenCL (GPU and CPU), as well as OpenGL graphics. In addition, Windows 7 users will also benefit from sensor information (GPS, temperature, brightness, voltage and fan), (multi)-touch, native support for SSD drives and SideShow devices.
With each release, we continue to add support and compatibility for the latest hardware, architectures and operating systems, and this is no exception. SiSoftware continues to work with hardware vendors to ensure the best support for new emerging hardware. Below is a quote we would like to share with you:
"As ATI Stream technology grows in popularity with software developers, SiSoftware's Sandra 2010 benchmark is an increasingly important tool for evaluating GPU compute performance," said Eric Demers, chief technology officer, graphics products, AMD. "As the only provider of DirectX 11 GPUs today, AMD welcomes SiSoftware's support for that popular application programming interface in Sandra 2010."
3. Sandra 2010 has been updated to use the new Windows 7 Windows User Experience (UX) guidelines, including Aero, for a richer, cleaner look and feel. However, all users will benefit from the improved usability and navigation in this version.
4. Responding to customers' needs to have a rapid portable version of Sandra (that does not need installing), we have expanded our offerings for Sandra Engineer Portable; it is now available on a branded USB (flash) drive, offering all the features of the previous CD based product, plus writable storage to save your valuable reports: you only need carry one thing in your pocket.
As well as adding support for virtualisation, the other change we have all noticed is the blurring between the home and workplace; as a result we have added three (3) new lifestyle modules, making seven (7) new modules in total:

It's Actually Our Fault
by Jad Chambers
posted Aug 2 2012 5:24AM
It's a moment of realization that causes great chagrin. If you've ever caught yourself doing it, that's what chagrin actually feels like. It's that moment when you realize that YOU'VE created or helped to create a situation you verbally complain about.
I've said it for years. Hollywood is out of ideas, no one has any original ideas anymore, and everything these days is a remake or a sequel. No one will take a chance on a new IP (that's Intellectual Property; and it's a common abbreviation that means a book, movie, or videogame that's not part of an existing franchise) anymore. I love that there are authors like Jim Butcher and Brandon Sanderson still starting up new book series instead of just resting on and expanding their established ones. I love that there are directors like Richard Kelly (who is hugely talented and creates must-see movies) and even M. Night Shyamalan (who is terrible and makes poorly written trash for dummies, but at least it's original trash) out there making new and original movies. It's even worse in my geek pastime of video games. For every independently developed interesting new IP game that comes out there's a hundred more AAA big studio developed shovelware sequels which are just the same game with a bigger number stapled on after the title.
3 was the sequel number of the year in 2011. Battlefield 3, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Killzone 3, Gears of War 3, Mass Effect 3, and F3AR (actually it's FEAR 3, but they did spell it F3AR on the box... so I pronounce it fuh-THREE-er.) And with the exception of Mass Effect (which I never got into but have heard good things about) those games are all just shovelware garbage. I hate them because I hate sequels and remakes. Why can't people make new IP's anymore. Are we just not creative anymore or all the ideas taken?
It's an argument I've made before, and loudly. And it's an opinion I still hold. However, I DO reluctantly get and understand the simple answer. And every so often I the painful realization hits me... I'm part of the problem. A straightforward, simple, and good explanation of the problem is discussed
in a Yahoo News feature. But in short, we are the problem. The audience WANTS sequels and remakes, and rewards them with dumptrucks full of cash. I complain about it, but what movies have I gone to see on opening weekend this year? The Avengers (with 5 Marvel lead-in movies) and the Dark Knight Returns (or Nolan's Batman 3.) Video Games; it's just as bad. My favorites of last year were Skyrim (the Elder Scrolls 5) and Zelda: Skyward Sword (basically Zelda 8.)
So I really don't have any room to complain about originality. But I want to be a part of a solution, as opposed to just being a part of the problem. Unfortunately I'm not talented enough to write my own new IP book, movie, or videogame... so I need to do something else. So I'll get the ball rolling on something we could all do. In the comment section below, suggest your favorite new IP. Something you've seen in the last couple of years that's not a sequel, prequel, remake, or reboot. Something new we can all see and something to remind us that creativity still exists.
I'll even go first. At the Palace recently I saw "Cabin in the Woods." This is another movie from Avengers director Joss Whedon, and I really enjoyed it. It does re-use the whole "cabin in the woods" cliché horror movie theme... but it does it on purpose and is 1 part self-parody, 1 part totally unpredictable, 1 part Lovecraft horror, and ALL AWESOME. Lots of blood and gore, decent (heh) amount of profanity, nudity and sexual situations, and loads of graphic violence so... not for everybody.
But definitely for me.
Oh, and I'd like to add GO TEAM USA. I was really disappointed in the lack of results on the poll I put on the Steve and Ted Facebook page about the Olympics. Well I love this country and I salute and cheer on its athletes. I'd like to think that fellow conservatives (who make up the majority of KNSS listeners) would be a little more patriotic. But then again, it's not the first example of "selective patriotism" I've seen.
