Position papers: Coventry Board of Trustees
Edward Diebold vs. Tom Seese (incumbent) vs. Rod Willis
Voters living in Coventry Township will vote for two candidates for Coventry Township Board of Trustees in the Nov. 5 General Election. The race is nonpartisan. The information provided below was submitted by the candidates, with their responses to our questions printed as submitted.
Edward Diebold
Why are you running for trustee?
"I'm running for Trustee to help ensure Coventry Township remains a great community to reside in. We have a very unique community and we need to sell that to future families and small businesses. This will solidify our continued growth and the longivity of Coventry Township. I will bring alot of energy and a open 24/7 attitude to this office. I plan on raising a family here and, I want the best for my family, friends, and neighbors now and in the futur"
What would be your top three priorities if you took office? Why?
- "Increase revenue stream to support our Township services (must do our very best not to ask for more from our local property owners, if possible)
- "Encourage more small businesses to set up shop in Coventry Township (putting local people to work)
- "Sell our community as a special place to raise a family (lots of homes for sale)"
Tom Seese (incumbent)
Why are you running for trustee?
"Since I was in my twenties I have always tried to be someone who could listen to both sides of an issue and try to come up with a reasonable solution that could be accepted by both parties.
"Back in the 1970's I was very involved with my children in youth sports and enjoyed the times I was able to spend with all of the Coventry parents who were also involved.
"As a result of my involvement in the sport programs many of the parents suggested that I should run for Coventry Township Trustee. In November of 1977 I placed my name on the ballot for one of the Township Trustees opening and fortunately the voters of Coventry elected me and I ran two more times and was reelected. In 1986 I was appointed to serve in the Ohio General Assembly as the State Representative of the 41st House District which Coventry was one of the many communities which I would represent. I served in that capacity for ten years.
"Immediately after leaving the General Assembly I retired from Goodyear Aerospace having completed thirty years of service and purchased a coin Laundromat and dry cleaning business with my best friend and our spouses. We operated that business successfully for twelve years. During that period of my life people would stop and ask questions about the Township or State issues and I would find myself trying to assist anybody that needed my advice.
"In 2009 knowing that I desperately missed being …" [Exceeded stated word limit.]
What would be your top three priorities if you were re-elected? Why?
- "Continue to encourage open discussions at public meetings as well as in the community, ask our residents for their ideas when they attend our Trustees meeting. I will continue to be available to visit areas where our residents ask for some assistance so that I can have first hand knowledge of the problem when I seek help from our Township workers.
- "I will always strive to make sure that funding is available to continue our excellent services provided by our Fire Department personal as well as our Road Department and our Zoning Department. I am also very proud of our Senior Center operation and will continue to make improvements within our Park System and Cemeteries
"I will always try to enlist the help of our residents to support the Trustees when they attempt to put more sheriff protection on our streets and throughout our Township.
- "Continue to look for Federal and State agencies that can assist us with areas of the Township that have been devastated by being flooded multiple times."
Rod Willis
Why are you running for trustee?
"I am running for Coventry Township Board of Trustees because I am totally committed to serving this community and to moving Coventry forward in a positive direction. I have lived in the Coventry community for 58 years and am aware of the needs of the residents. I believe my past work experiences and associations will service me well in decision making.
"Coventry has provided my family and me with a safe, desirable and attractive place to live. I want to see that advance in the years to come. Coventry has unique recourses to promote and protect. More importantly I have the time to and am willing to serve."
What would be your top three priorities if you took office? Why?
"My top three priorities are first to promote Coventry Township as a safe place to live, work and raise a family. As a Trustee, I am concerned about maintaining clean and safe waterways. This would include maintaining and upgrading sewers, dams and other sources that affect waterways. These things must be handled in a safe and affordable way. Increased safety forces and patrol is necessary on and around water. Further consolidation with county service should be studied to save tax dollars.
"Another priority would be economic development. This area has lakes around which businesses could thrive. It is important to have living wage job opportunities in the area. I would work to promote the towpath and trail ways plans around the lakes.
"Coventry Schools would be another priority for me. Coventry is out largest employer and involved our most important resources — our children. I will support the children and our schools so that they provide the high quality education and continue the excellent ratings. It is important that we are providing safe learning environments and high quality learning opportunities for all children."

The L3C, or Low-Profit Limited Liability Company, is a new type of corporate entity that is a cross between a nonprofit and a for-profit corporation. L3Cs are not eligible for tax-exempt treatment by the IRS. Rather, they are intended to be profit-generating entities with charitable and educational (including positive social change) missions as their primary objectives. Building upon the LLC structure, the L3C has thus far been enacted in Vermont (May 2008), Michigan (January 2009), Utah (March 2009), Wyoming (July 2009) and Illinois (Jan 2010). L3C legislation is also being considered in several other states, including Georgia, Louisiana, Maine and Missouri. For more information about the status of L3C legislation please visit: http://www.americansforcommunitydevelopment.org/legislativewatch.html.
The Nevada legislature has not passed any legislation authorizing L3Cs as of July 2011. However, all states must recognize LLCs formed in other states and the L3C is a variant form of an LLC.
L3Cs are similar to LLCs in that they have the liability protection of a corporation, the flexibility of a partnership and membership shares can be sold to raise capital just like common stock. However, unlike the LLC, the L3C must be formed for a charitable or educational purpose, it cannot have a significant goal of producing income or capital appreciation and it may not accomplish political or legislative objectives.
L3Cs are intended to be vehicles which can both attract capital investment from for-profit enterprises and investment by foundations. Nontraditional for-profit investors who are willing to sacrifice market-level returns in exchange for social impact are prime candidates to provide capital investments or loans to L3Cs. Similarly, private foundations that wish to provide support in the form of a loan or equity rather than a grant may find an L3C to be attractive because the enabling legislation is written in such a way as to comply with the IRS program related investment or PRI regulations, thus eliminating the need for private letter rulings or legal opinions for such investments. PRIs can be attractive to foundations because they count toward its 5% minimum payout requirement, just as if they were grants. But if the investment is successful, the foundation could recapture the full amount of the investment, plus a reasonable rate of return, which it then must pay out again in the form of grants or more PRIs.
Existing nonprofit corporations can utilize the L3C structure in at least two ways. First, if the nonprofit generates enough earned income to qualify as low profit, it could reincorporate as a stand-alone L3C. Second, it could establish a subsidiary as an L3C to conduct low-profit earned income activities.
It is too early to tell whether L3Cs will proliferate and whether they will attract significant investments from non-traditional investors and foundations. Some experts have predicted that since PRIs comprise a relatively small amount of foundation grants and capital, the L3C will not succeed in attracting significant funds from foundations and thus this form of organization will not become the preferred vehicle.

Construction began June 3, 2008, on the new Gulf Crossing interstate pipeline, which will carry 1.7 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) of natural gas from Sherman, Texas, to Perryville, La.
The natural gas, which will originate in the Barnett Shale and Caney/Woodford Shale plays in southeastern Oklahoma, will serve the following end markets: Midwest via the Perryville Hub, which has interconnects to the Columbia Gulf and Texas Gas systems; Northeast via the Transco and Texas Eastern systems; Southeast and Florida via the Transco, Destin, Florida Gas, and Gulfstream systems; and Henry Hub via the Gulf South and Texas Gas systems. Key Gulf Crossing shippers include Crosstex Gulf Coast Marketing, Ltd., Deven Gas Services, LP, and Enterprise Gas Marketing, LP.
Although the 42-inch pipeline will terminate in northeastern Louisiana, the gas may continue to Station 85 of the Transcontinental Pipeline near the Mississippi/Alabama border via Gulf South's East Texas to Mississippi Expansion and Southern Expansion pipelines. The Transcontinental is a key third-party pipeline that serves the Northeast. Gulf Crossing will lease 1.1 Bcf/d of capacity on Gulf South's pipeline system (Southeast Expansion and a portion of the East Texas to Mississippi Expansion). In addition, the company will enter into a capacity lease agreement with the third-party intrastate pipeline Enogex.
According to Gulf Crossing, the pipeline is fully committed at 1.4 Bcf/d with a weighted average contract life of approximately 9.5 years. Gulf Crossing Pipeline began service in 2009.

Abstract Algebra - Ronald Solomon
Galois theory is the culmination of a centuries-long search for a solution to the classical problem of solving algebraic equations by radicals. In this book, Bewersdorff follows the historical development of the theory, emphasizing concrete examples along the way. As a result, many mathematical abstractions are now seen as the natural consequence of particular investigations.
Few prerequisites are needed beyond general college mathematics, since the necessary ideas and properties of groups and fields are provided as needed. Results in Galois theory are formulated first in a concrete, elementary way, then in the modern form. Each chapter begins with a simple question that gives the reader an idea of the nature and difficulty of what lies ahead. The applications of the theory to geometric constructions, including the ancient problems of squaring the circle, duplicating the cube, and trisecting an angle, and the construction of regular \(n\)-gons are also presented.
This book is suitable for undergraduates and beginning graduate students.
Undergraduates and graduate students interested in Galois Theory.
"For those with minimal exposure to undergraduate mathematics, the book would make for some formidable reading. ... it provides excellent historical and mathematical context."
-- S. J. Colley, Oberlin College for CHOICE Reviews
"...the author has produced both a lovely invitation and a profound first introduction to the realm of Galois theory for everyone."
-- Zentralblatt MATH
"...the book is well-written and pleasant to read."

Family: Falconidae, Falcons view all from this family
Description ADULT MALE Has blue-gray upperparts and buffy, streaked, and spotted underparts. In flight, and from above, blue-gray back, inner wings, and tail contrast with dark wingtips and dark terminal band on tail. ADULT FEMALE Has brown upperparts and pale underparts with large, brown spots. In flight, from above, upperparts are rather uniform brown with numerous faint bars on wings and tail; from below, body is streaked, while tail is distinctly barred. JUVENILE Similar to adult counterparts.
Dimensions Length: 10-14" (25-36 cm); Wngspn: 23" (58 cm)
Habitat Widespread and fairly common in open country. In region covered by this book mainly a summer visitor to Canada (present mostly May-Aug) and winter visitor to U.S.; widespread in winter in west, but in east mainly associated with coastal and southern states.
Observation Tips Easiest to find in winter.
Range Alaska, Southeast, Southwest, Eastern Canada, California, Western Canada, Mid-Atlantic, Florida, Great Lakes, Rocky Mountains, Northwest, Texas, New England, Plains
Voice Mainly silent although a shrill kee-kee-kee is uttered in alarm.
Discussion Small falcon, often seen flying low over ground in dashing hunting flight while pursuing small bird prey. Perches for extended periods on lookout, using fence posts or rocky outcrops. Soaring Merlin could perhaps be confused in silhouette for a small Peregrine, but its low, dashing flight is vaguely reminiscent of Sharp-shinned Hawk. Sexes are dissimilar and northern birds ("Taiga Merlin," ssp. columbarius) are smaller and darker than birds breeding further south ("Prairie Merlin," ssp. richardsoni); Pacific Northwest residents ("Black Merlin," ssp. suckleyi) are darker overall still but occur outside range covered by this book. The following descriptions apply to ssp. columbarius.

Just like the Saudis, the Afganastanees, the Iraqis, the Egyptians don't want us there though they will take our money and laugh about it. . They don't want to be like us and they like being sheep. It is not the will of thier people and for you to continue to support a dysfunctional Foreign Policy just demonstartes how much you don't know!

After five consecutive playoff appearances, the Miami Dolphins have made it to the playoffs just once since 2001. Since Dan Marino�s retirement in 1999, the Dolphins haven�t had an elite quarterback to lead them. The rushing game has been a patchwork job from mediocre players like Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, with Wildcat formation trickery. It�s been a long and steady decline since Marino retired, but things finally appear to be turning around for the Miami Dolphins as a franchise.

Following the example by lady ada here: http://www.ladyada.net/products/rgbledstrip/Using the STP16NF06 as suggested, wired properly, with a TLC 5940 driving them commanded by an arduino, nothing happens unless I hold the PCB in my hands. simply touching the pins of the mosfets, while a fade is running, turns them on until the fade completes (I can let go as soon as everything lights up). The RGB LED's stay dark until I touch the mosfets with dry, bare hands again. NOTE, I did not install the 10k resistors (yet) that I have seen in other depictions, but aren't those to make the mosfets turn back off? My current limiting resistor (IREF) on the TLC5940 is a 2.2k.
(I can let go as soon as everything lights up)
The other thing is that the TLC5940 just pulls down so you need a pull up to 5V or more to drive the FETs.

It'll be ages before ROTK stuff hits my neck of the woods so i might as well build up the forces of darkness for old Sauron eh? Besides which, two Easterlings looks silly.

My name is Kristan T. Harris. I have run for political office and have worked a political grass roots campaign for Ron Paul. I was nominated and elected to the GOP platform committee in 2012. I am a huge advocate for liberty and freedom.I am a libertarian at heart. I am also a news junkie and love a good mystery.
Gun Ban Update: Wal-Mart Forbids New Ammunition Orders. Biden pushes 19 executive orders for Gun Ban
So for all those who listen to their TV and think that Republicans & Democrats do not want your guns the evidence is compelling. They are saying one thing and are going to do another to keep American Patriots in a gaslighting trance. Businesses are refusing to order more ammo. This is called back door politics. The administration will test market new rules to see how the American people react. This will help them gather information to decide how much resistance will oppose the gun ban. But as long as the media hypes "We are not coming for your guns". People seem to believe the idiot box. If you dont raise your voice and get involved now it WILL be to late tommorrow.
Customers are being denied ammunition orders all over the United States, Walmart has forbidden store managers from re-ordering ammunition inventory until further notice, raising fears that the Obama administration's gun control agenda is already being enacted via the back door.
If true, it's particularly ironic that Walmart is preventing Americans from purchasing ammunition at the same time that the federal government is buying up bullets in vast quantities, having secured over 1.6 billion rounds of ammo in the last nine months alone.
If you look historically in just about every case with gun control in the United States violent crime goes way up and it seems only the criminals have the guns. Chicago and New York are great examples how criminals with guns can break into your house and you have to dial 911 or be a victim and can not protect yourself in your own home. This leaves a huge feeling of dependancy on the government. On top of it lets not forget that our government was shipping guns to the Mexican Drug Cartel as a false flag to blame the 2nd Amendment. Over 100 American lives where lost Investigating, protecting Fast & Furious.
If you cant believe our government would kill American Citizens for political agenda you need look no further than Operation Northwoods & Operation Ajax recently declassified by the Freedom Of Information Act. You can purchase a copy of these documents in "63 Documents the Government Does Not want You to Read" By Former Governer Jesse Ventura. In Northwoods the plan was to kill American Citizens in false flag terror attacks to justify going to war with Cuba. It went all the way to JFK where it was later denied. If it was on the table then could a false flag attack on American Patriots on the table today?
On Sunday, U.S. Sen. Chuck Schumer demanded that gun retailers like Walmart and Sports Authority, "Suspend sales of modern assault-style weapons until Congress is able to fully consider and vote on legislation to curb gun violence."
"If Congress passes measures to reduce availability of these weapons, those efforts could be undermined by the purchase of thousands of weapons before then," he added.
Reports from customers attempting to purchase ammunition in Walmart stores suggest that major retailers could already be strangling the supply of ammo in response to government pressure following the Sandy Hook massacre.
A message posted on the DailySheeple website reads, "I've read various postings on message boards claiming local Wal-Mart managers told customers they are no longer permitted to reorder ammo inventory. I can confirm this is true.
I went to Wal-Mart today in our town to buy ammo. The case was almost empty. I asked the store manager when new supplies will arrive.
He said, "Corporate headquarters notified all local managers that we can not order any more ammo until further notice."
Do Wal-Mart executives know that Piers Morgan doesn't shop at Wal-Mart, but millions of middle class American families are the source of their wealth? What happens to Wal-Mart's earnings if Middle Class America boycotts Wal-Mart for caving in to Obama?
The notion that such a policy could have been put in place in plausible given that both Walmart and Dick's Sporting Goods suspended sales of some semi-automatic rifles following the Newtown school shooting.
Walmart has also been the target of protests in recent days on behalf of gun control advocates demanding they cease all firearm sales.
We asked Walmart if they had enacted this policy but received no response at time of press.
Last month, top online gun distributor Cheaper Than Dirt announced that it had temporarily suspended all gun sales in response to the Sandy Hook shooting, a move which drew widespread condemnation from second amendment enthusiasts.
Last week, firearms manufacturer American Spirit Arms announced that Bank of America had frozen the funds of the licensed gun dealer, with the bank telling owner Joe Sirochman he "should not be selling guns and parts on the internet."
Sirochman was informed that his funds generated from Internet sales would only be released once BoA had reviewed and cleared them.
The apparent effort on behalf of the big banks and top corporate retailers to strangle an industry that is surging coincides with the Obama administration's attempt to eviscerate the second amendment via executive orders. Vice President Joe Biden yesterday indicated that the White House would pursue 19 different executive orders pertaining to gun control in order to bypass the need for Congressional authorization.
In response, Texas Republican Rep. Steve Stockman threatened to start impeachment proceedings against Barack Obama, while Senator Rand Paul accused Obama of acting like a "king" while "usurping the Constitution," and "running roughshod over Congress."

SIR HUGH must have abandoned the pursuit of the wily fox at an early hour on that memorable afternoon, seeing that it was but half‐past two, when, the deed being done, he rode off on his long raking bay mare—rode off to go and tell his mamma of his prowess, and of what a lovely, willing bride he had achieved. Only half‐past two; there was therefore ample time for my father and me to take our daily stroll; that stroll which we still took, though it had become such a woeful piteous shadow of what it used to be. No earthly persuasion could induce my father to give in to being an invalid, to stay in bed and have a doctor. Every day he would get up and dress; would come down page: 133 stairs, and sit in the library; would sit in his usual chair, and read his usual books; but every day the dressing and the coming down stairs took longer; every day the wheels of the chariot drove more heavily; every day the silver cord loosened—loosened; every day the frail vessel of that dear life drifted ever faster—faster out, into the great desolate homeless sea of Death. As well as any one could tell him, he knew that he was dying—knew that the few last sands of his hour glass were dribbling slowly out; no need to break the news to him. To "break" implies that the news is bad; but to him this was not ill news; to him it seemed an evangel—"good tidings of great joy." But though he so well knew that solenmest fact—perhaps the more so because he did so know it—he seemed now to taste a deeper, tenderer joy than ever, even of yore, in Nature's sweet presence; even in her leafless trees, her riotous western breezes, and her chill December suns.
And thus it came to pass that we two who were so close to each other now; page: 134 we, who, a month hence, should be severed far as time is parted from eternity, walked out together every day, gravely and lovingly.
At first our walk comprised pleasure ground, farm‐yard, and home wood; but then, after a little, we had to drop the wood, had to say a long good‐bye to it—to the pleasant wood with its oaks, and its tangled briars, and its crimson dogwood—for it lay on a rising ground, and taxed too hardly the poor struggling, difficult breath.
A week more, and the farm‐yard is abandoned for a like cause. Every day the walk grows shorter, the steps slower, the end nearer! God! What torture can be comparable to that of standing, with one dearer to us than life, on the edge of that awfulest, blackest gulf, seeing him slipping, slipping down into it, unable to stretch out a finger to prevent him; to help him back again up the kindly hither bank.
On the afternoon of my betrothal, we were as usual creeping with tedious page: 135 lagging steps along the gravel walk, round the flowerless flower‐beds, stopping every ten paces to take breath. My father was wrapped up in his old great‐coat, (ah me, how he used to eschew great coats in bygone days!) and I, with my arm passed through his, am trying to help on his tottering steps, without his finding out that he is so helped.
"I think you seem to be walking a little better to‐day, dearest old man!" I say.
"Am I, Nell? I'm not a very grand traveller, I don't think."
We stop, and look over the wire fence at the drenched‐looking grass, at the rich, wet, loamy earth.
"If this mild weather lasts, we shall be seeing the crocuses out in flower here, in another month," I say.
"I shall never see the crocuses again!" says my father, simply.
A rush of tears blinds me, and through them I look up at the yellowing sunken face—the face that is so immeasurably page: 136 more to me than all the world besides,—more, ten thousand times, than even my beautiful false lover—and I know that he speaks truth; that I shall be looking at the crocuses' golden blaze alone. In a few minutes I swallow back my tears; I have all the rest of my life‐time to weep in, but they must not come now; not now! not now! I say, gently pressing the dear arm that leans so feebly on mine.
"You must not say melancholy things to‐day, darling old daddy, for I have got such a nice piece of news for you!"
"News! have you, Nell?" says he cheerfully. "Why, little lass, you're getting like the Athenians, that spent their time in nothing else but either to hear or to tell some new thing."
Such was my father.
"This is a real bit of news," I say, smiling; "good news too," I add, though the words go nigh to choke me. We are walking on again slowly, beneath the great ash trees that spread black skeleton arms to the low dun sky.
"Good news has forgotten the road here, I think, Nell, for this long and many a day," says my father, with a weary sigh. I look down and fumble with the lowest button of my jacket.
"Sir Hugh Lancaster has been here again to‐day," I say, in a coy, low voice. My father stops suddenly, and leans both hands on the top of his stick.
"Has he?" he says, eagerly; "is your news about him, Nell!"
I blush.
"Yes, he asked me to marry him; or I'm not sure that it was not I that asked him to marry me," I say, with rather dreary merriment; "anyhow, we settled it between us: it is to be!"
"Thank God!" says my father, very reverently, under his breath; "then page: 138 there'll be somebody to take care of my little lass when I'm gone!"
"Is it good news, dad? did I say true!" I ask, throwing a pair of loving young arms about his neck, and laughing hysterically.
"That it is!" he says, heartily, and the strength seems to have come back into his voice. "I can say, 'Nunc dimittis,' with all my heart now, Nell; I could not have departed quite in peace before, when I thought of leaving my little Nell to be a poor little ill‐used governess; but now," he said, with a dash of his old pride, "she'll be able to hold up her head among the best in the county, as she ought, God bless her!"
"What good will it do me to hold up my head as high as Haman's, if you're not by to see it and be glad of it?" I ask, desolately. Long dreary years, forty, fifty, sixty perhaps, flash before my mind's eye, years of a bondage whose full horrors my innocent young soul but vaguely takes in; years with Hugh, and without papa.page: 139
Oh, why could not I die of consumption, like that girl I took the jelly to yesterday? Why could not I cough myself out of the world, as she was doing so fast? "On the —th instant, at Lestrange Hall, Eleanor, younger daughter of Sir Adrian Lestrange, of rapid decline, aged nineteen." And Dick would see it in the Times, and be compunctious, and his grand deep eyes would fill with remorseful tears, and he would rush away to the wars—those vague wars of which I always had so convenient a stock in my mental repertoire—and die, covered with wounds, and kissing my photograph.
This was the gloomy form my castle‐building took now; a picturesque death was the only thing I seemed to have strength to long for.
"Yes," I reply, wondering a little, "long ago; and you used to call me your little Cordelia; I remember,"
"Oh, dad! dad!" I cry in the bitterness of my soul, clinging about him. "Why cannot you take me with you? Oh, we have been such friends, haven't we? Oh, you're not going to leave me behind!"
"Hush, hush!" says he, soothingly, patting my hot wet cheek. "What will the fine new lover say if we let you wash all the colour out of your eyes with crying; God knows best, Nell! God knows best! we must try and think that!"
"I cannot think it," I say, desperately, "and I won't; I don't believe it."
After that we walk along in silence to the hall‐door; I saying over and over to myself, in utter heart sickness, "He doesn't know best! He doesn't! He page: 141 doesn't!" and dashing myself like a little foolish useless wave against the great adamant rock of the Omnipotent Will.

Obama: You know what my problem is? Poor messaging
posted at 7:51 pm on July 12, 2012 by Allahpundit
He needs to be more "inspiring" in his second term. That's been the big weakness so far, apparently.
"When I think about what we've done well and what we haven't done well," the president said, "the mistake of my first term – couple of years – was thinking that this job was just about getting the policy right. And that's important. But the nature of this office is also to tell a story to the American people that gives them a sense of unity and purpose and optimism, especially during tough times."…
Pressed by Rose about what he felt he needed to explain better to the American people, the president corrected that he wanted to do more "explaining, but also inspiring."
Yeah. Just yesterday I was thinking, "If only he'd talked more about how awesome it is that 25-year-olds can stay on their parents' insurance under ObamaCare, I'd totally be willing to choke on that trillion-dollar pricetag."
This is, of course, the political equivalent of telling a recruiter during a job interview that your big "weakness" is that you "try too hard." It's an almost completely meaningless self-criticism: The point, as is always the case in "messaging" complaints, is to compliment yourself on the correctness of your policy choices while blaming their failure on some facile communication problems. Serious question for liberals: Do you agree? Last I checked, there are plenty of policy complaints about The One from the left. Am eager to hear someone in his base defend the idea that had his rhetoric at the time soared a bit higher, the Democrats' failure to include the public option in the final O-Care bill would be no biggie. Being condescended to by your political leaders is fun, huh?
Exit question: What's the "inspiring" explanation for running guns to Mexican drug cartels?
Update: Slublog's photoshop on this is 24-karat gold.

IndexUniverse: ETFs Aren't the True Market
Earlier this month, Mark Wiedman, head of Blackrock's (BLK) iShares exchange traded fund unit, responded to the recent bout of bond-market volatility and the role of ETFs in the market, by declaring that "more and more ETFs are becoming the true market."
That oneline, which was included in an open letter penned by Wiedman and published on iShares.com (read here), has raised some eyebrows. In the last few weeks ETF trading and liquidity issues have been in the spotlight. And now, IndexUniverse writer Ugo Egbunike adds his thoughts to the mix. Today, he writes…
In his recent open letter to investors, Global Head of iShares Mark Wiedman made a clear distinction between the primary market for an ETF (ETF share liquidity) and the secondary market of an ETF (liquidity of underlying securities in a fund). However, there's one line in that letter I simply can't swallow: "more and more ETFs are becoming the true market." If anything, that line should have a HUGE asterisk next to it. Indeed, there are times when specific ETFs can provide price discovery, but in no way should we assume that ETFs are becoming the true market. Rather, we need to understand where ETF liquidity is limited; namely, the underlying liquidity.
Later he adds…
If you're dealing with a particularly liquid underlying market, both in terms of volume and access, there's a strong argument to be made that that ETF can indeed be a viable way to establish price discovery. But crucially, when either of those two components for underlying liquidity is limited, the argument for ETF price discovery becomes a bit flawed.
As examples, Egbunike cites various ETF, including the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY), iShares MSCI Japan ETF (EWJ) and the Market Vectors Indonesia Small Cap ETF (IDXJ).

Tilghman featured in Wall Street Journal interview
Posted July 19, 2006; 12:29 p.m.
Princeton President Shirley M. Tilghman was featured July 17 in The Wall Street Journal in an interview addressing the expansion of the undergraduate student body and recently adopted family-friendly initiatives, among many issues facing the University.
The article, part of the Journal's series of "Boss Talk" columns, discussed Princeton's plans to increase the size of its undergraduate student body by 500 students, or 11 percent, by 2012. Princeton is revamping its residential college system to accommodate the new undergraduates and to provide a broader range of academic and social options for all students.
"We should be educating as many students as we can, consistent with the nature of education that we have always espoused, which is very close interaction between the students and faculty," Tilghman told the Journal. "So we couldn't suddenly open the floodgates and have 40,000 students. But we were absolutely persuaded we were in a position to accommodate 11 percent more. We are turning away students who we know would be absolutely stellar Princeton students, and it's just because of our lack of spaces in the class."
While also growing in size, Princeton's student body has become more economically diverse over the past several years. The University has enhanced its financial aid program in several ways to attract more students from lower- and middle-income families -- most notably by replacing loans with grants for all students who qualify for aid to eliminate the burden of graduating with significant debt. In Princeton's incoming freshman class of 2010, 54 percent of students are receiving financial aid -- compared to 38 percent in the class of 2001, the last class admitted before Princeton began revamping its financial aid practices.
"… I think the greatest challenge for all of us is to look for the lower-income student who has not excelled at the same level in terms of standardized tests but has been able to excel despite all the things that were put in his path," Tilghman said in the interview.
The article also noted recent changes to make Princeton a more family-friendly work environment, one of Tilghman's priorities as president. Among other initiatives, the University last year instituted a policy that automatically grants male and female faculty extra time to pursue tenure after having a child, rather than requiring them to request an extension.
"We recently adapted that policy because we discovered that people were not taking advantage of the policy partly for fear that they would be perceived as asking for a benefit," Tilghman said. "So now we automatically extend the tenure clock. You don't ask for it. You get it."

Has anybody else seen the new Two Towers toys? Especially the Aragorn toy.
Well if you haven't let me enlighten you.
It's the EXACT same thing as the Fellowship toy, except in the red packaging. Exact.
WTF? This toy sucked the big one, the first time around, and its sucks twice as much the second time around. Why can't they make a new mold, or least retool it a little?
I'm still waiting for a damn good Aragorn

WIAA votes against MVC proposal to add West Salem
STEVENS POINT, Wis. - The WIAA struck down a proposal that would have moved West Salem from the Coulee Conference to the Mississippi Valley Conference.
West Salem was strongly opposed to the move. At the WIAA's Board of Control Meeting, Panthers representatives argued their enrollment is smaller than the schools they would have competed against in the MVC. On the other hand, MVC representatives spoke in favor of it.
"We always wanted an 8-team league, and that's been one of my goals," MVC Commissioner Terry Erickson said. "I feel deflated because we aren't able to achieve that."
After a private caucus, the WIAA voted 6-2-1 to keep the Coulee and MVC 7-team leagues.
"I feel very good," West Salem Activities Director LeRoy Krall said. "This was about providing the best opportunity to our kids, and I really, truly believe this will do that."19869826
"West Salem has been a long-time standing member of the Coulee Conference and to be able to hold on to them, it means a lot to us," said Coulee Conference Commissioner Bruce Kaiser. "Seven teams is a lot easier to work with than six."
Conversation about high school conference realignment is largely driven by difficulties in football scheduling, according to activities directors. As News 8 first reported last fall, Prairie du Chien expressed interest in leaving the Southwest Wisconsin Conference in part due to trouble scheduling non-conference football games.
"Travel has always been a big issue, and finding games is a big issue," Erickson said.
The WIAA's vote addresses this issue by mandating a football scheduling partnership between the 7-team Coulee and 6-team SWC. There will be two crossover non-conference football games beginning in 2014.
"We've never been opposed to helping out the Southwest Conference and to mandate crossover games with the Southwest Conference is just fine with us," Krall said. "We've played them before, it's one long trip a year. Not going to be a problem."
"The board really has given the schools the opportunity to resolve it themselves," WIAA Associate Director Deb Hauser said.
The WIAA will listen to the conferences' proposals at its May 17 meeting.
"We kicked around several ideas throughout the fall and winter anyways, and we believe it's really quite feasible to make it work," Kaiser said.
Any other modifications to this proposal may also be discussed May 17.

Family: Pieridae, Whites and Sulphurs view all from this family
Description The Falcate Orangetip (Anthocharis midea) is a North American butterfly that was described in 1809 by Jacob H¸bner. It belongs to the family Pieridae which is the white and sulphurs. These butterflies are mostly seen on the eastern side of the United States, particularly in Texas and Oklahoma. They eat the nectar of violets and mustards. They tend to live in open, wet woods along waterways, in open swamps, and less often in dry woods and ridgetops. The Falcate Orangetip is a true spring time butterfly, being on the wing from April-May (March-May in southern Texas).
The upper side of the male's forewing is orange, but females lack this. Both have a round black spot located in the cell. The underside of the hindwing usually has intricate green-marbling. The orangetips have a wingspan of around 3.5-4.5 centimeters.
Dimensions 1 3/8 - 1 1/2" (35-38mm).
Habitat Forests & woodlands.
Range Texas, Great Lakes, New England, Plains, Southeast, Mid-Atlantic.

Illicit Botox Sparks Alert
Regulators said last week they warned 350 medical practices that they may have purchased unapproved—and potentially counterfeit—versions of the drug Botox from a network of wholesalers controlled by Canada Drugs, an international supplier linked earlier this year to fake cancer medicines.
The warnings mark the fifth time the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has alerted doctors of suspect, overseas drugs this year, largely sold by Canada Drugs' companies. In February, the agency first told cancer doctors that they had bought a cornstarch and acetone-based imitation of Avastin, a Roche Holdings AG medicine, from the network. More than 500 American doctors have now received warnings.
Canada Drugs, a 10-year-old Internet pharmacy based in Winnipeg, has profited for years by selling cheaper, foreign versions of medicines from price-controlled markets such as the U.K. and Turkey to American customers and doctors. But the FDA considers the activity illegal, even when the drugs are authentic medicines, because those drugs aren't approved by the agency. That business, as the Avastin episode showed, introduces the risk that fake medicine may reach American customers.
The agency sought unsuccessfully to shut down Canada Drugs' consumer-focused website in September, and is investigating the company, officials said. Canada Drugs executives didn't respond to a request for comment. Canada Drugs' employees earlier acknowledged in interviews that they shipped the fake Avastin but said they didn't know it was counterfeit.
And, in a sign a broader crackdown on illicit medicines is gaining momentum, drug makers are forging a deal with international police group Interpol to fund some law-enforcement efforts.
Administrators at two medical practices identified by the FDA as buyers of the suspect Botox said sales representatives from Quality Specialty Products, Bridgewater Medical, and other Canada Drugs-owned companies pitched doctors' offices discounted vials of the medicine.
"They said it was the same Botox that Allergan sells, but it was not made in the United States," said the practice manager of a small Illinois neurology practice who ordered Botox from Bridgewater Medical. "I was assured it was the same product, but it was just less expensive." The practice ceased ordering the product after a doctor became aware it was of foreign origin, the manager said. Allergan Inc. makes Botox.
These medical-practice employees declined to speak for attribution, saying they didn't want to draw negative attention to their employers. More than a dozen other practices declined to comment or didn't return phone messages.
Quality Specialty Products, Bridgewater Medical and other purveyors of suspect Botox identified by the FDA are either companies acquired by Canada Drugs or trade names used by its representatives, according to business documents and former Canada Drugs employees.
A series of incidents in the past year stretching beyond Canada Drugs underscored gaps in the U.S. drug-supply chain's security. Executives for at least three other drug wholesalers that allegedly sold foreign medicines in the U.S. have been charged with crimes in recent months.
A Tennessee oncologist pleaded guilty last month to a felony count of buying an unapproved cancer drug with the intent to defraud the state's Medicaid program and other health-care purchasers. The oncologist, William Kincaid of Johnson City, Tenn., could face up to three years in prison.
Drug makers and law-enforcement officials have been working for several years to crack down on counterfeit and foreign, misbranded medicines. Since February, Congress has sharpened penalties for selling fake drugs. And pharmaceutical-industry executives have pushed hard to accelerate the efforts.
"The Avastin case has put some wind behind some sails here on enforcement," said Bruce Longbottom, an Eli Lilly & Co. trademark lawyer focused on drug diversion and counterfeiting.
As part of the industry's growing enforcement efforts, Merck & Co. "began hiring former officers of U.S. and foreign intelligence services, such as the Central Intelligence Agency, building greater capabilities to address the international counterfeit threat to patient safety," said Grant Ashley, security chief for the Whitehouse Station, N.J., drug maker.
In the Interpol deal, a group of 27 drug companies would finance some of the police organization's efforts to crack down on illicit medicine sales, drug-firm security officials and law-enforcement officers say. In the unusual arrangement, Interpol would use the industry money to pay for training for local law enforcement and efforts to track cases in which culprits operate in several nations.
That deal is expected to be completed early next year, officials said. "This is an innovative solution in addressing a global crime problem, and one which most importantly will significantly contribute to protecting the health and safety of people throughout the world," Interpol spokeswoman Rachael Billington said.
In the latest cases, the FDA said it hadn't confirmed whether any patients had received the suspect versions of Botox. It said the products were unapproved, meaning they weren't manufactured at FDA-inspected facilities and packaged for U.S. sale. "If the FDA confirms any counterfeit products, we will notify the public," said spokeswoman Sarah Clark-Lynn.
A spokeswoman for Allergan said the company learned of the suspect Botox vials from the FDA last week. In a statement, the company said, "[w]e cannot confirm the safety or authenticity of products that are imported from unauthorized distributors."
Botox, or Botulinum toxin, is known for its cosmetic use, in which doctors inject it into muscles to relax frown lines and wrinkles. About half of the product, though, is sold for therapeutic uses, including treatment of migraines and urinary incontinence, the company said. Allergan sells genuine Botox to doctors for $525 per vial.
Fake and foreign Botox has appeared before in U.S. medical practices, court records show. In 2006, Chad Livdahl, owner of an Arizona distributor, was sentenced to nine years in prison for crimes related to the marketing of unapproved versions of Botox that the FDA said temporarily paralyzed some patients.
Mr. Livdahl, who was released early in 2009, didn't respond to requests for comment through his attorney. The attorney, Maria Elena Perez, said he maintained "his Botox never harmed anyone."

About Us
The Mommies Network is a 501c(3) non-profit organization dedicated to helping moms find support and friendship in their local community. We started as one chapter in Charlotte, North Carolina in 2002 and launched as network of chapters in 2005. We currently operate about 45 local communities across the country and have over 15,000 active members.
Our Mission
To provide a safe, secure, FREE place for mothers to find support and encouragement from other mothers and to empower them to be better women, mothers and community leaders.
Our Philosophy
No one should have to pay a fee to make a friend, so we offer free membership to any mother within the community who wishes to join.
We believe that by working together we can change the world - one family, one neighborhood, one community at a time. The Mommies Network is a connecting force, helping us each to make a difference in our own lives, in our families and in the places we call home.
What Makes The Mommies Network Different?
When CharlotteMommies was first formed in 2002, there weren't as many online mom communities out there as there are today. Our "competition" was mostly offline groups with little web presence, weekly meetings, membership age restrictions and annual fees. Our goal was to provide a place where moms could find support on THEIR schedule – not be required to fit their social activities into a weekly schedule – and that would be free to use. It was important that EVERY mother have the opportunity to access our resource and we were one of the first groups to provide free membership to ANY mother, regardless of how old she was, how hold her children were, or what "type" of mom she was.
However, we also strove from the beginning to be MORE than just a social outlet for mothers. We wanted to provide an environment where mothers of all walks of life could come together and share space and learn from each other. We wanted to create a multicultural, virtual neighborhood, connect moms within their local community in a new way. Our goal was to give these women the support they needed to be the best parent they can be – and to encourage them to, in turn, give back – to each other, to other people, and to their community at large.
With the advent of online social sites like Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest, we have realized that we must work harder than ever to differentiate ourselves from these types of services – these social outlets provide an escape for their users – an opportunity to step away from the stressors and complications of life and hide behind an anonymous mask online. It's easy on a social network to highlight or stress one aspect of your personality or one particular issue you are passionate about – on TMN chapters, we strive to strip away the mask of anonymity, to see the whole person behind the forum persona – and develop real, true relationships with our fellow members. We do this through bringing our members together socially with events and activities throughout the year, as well as encouraging regular community service, where our members come together to give back to the community they call home.
