I find it telling that former President Bush, on his death bed, sent an incredible heart felt statement to the family of the General and to America addressing our loss.
Anyone hear from the Commander in Chief or the Whitehouse????

We've lost a true patriot and a genuine leader for sure. RIP General Schwarzkopf.
Yes, a true American hero.
Interesting story:
Shortly after his retirement he gave an interview to one of the local Tampa stations. When asked if he was getting used to being a civilian, he recounted a story that helped him bring it into perspective.
Seems as if the trash/garbage trucks were going down his street and he was a little late in getting his container to the curb. He yelled at them to wait as they drove off. "Sorry, bud." was their reply as they kept driving.
He lived in an exclusive gated community which had several black Surburbans with tinted windows stationed at the four outside corners.

A great warrior and a true leader. As a Desert Storm Veteran I appreciated his vision and knowing what to do and when to do it! RIP General Schwarzkopf.

December 27, 2012 is the date that's going into the official Presidential archives.
Barack Obama: "Statement on the Death of General H. Norman Schwarzkopf," December 27, 2012. Online by Gerhard Peters and John T. Woolley, The American Presidency Project. http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/ws/?pid=102802.
Here's Obama's quote from a Business Insider article dated Dec. 27th. Maybe they're clairvoyant.
A magazine recently published an article about the loss of command ability among the higher ranking military leaders (if you can call them leaders). They noted that all too many of the generals of today are armchair generals who have never been around actual combat conditions.
The Tacoma Retriever club had a long tradition of inviting the generals out to shoot live birds at their field trials. General Schwarzkopf was among the last to do so. The majority of todays generals don't even hunt, which is unto itself. Needless to say the club has lost nearly all access to the fort that they used to enjoy.
Our society does not mold them in the manner Stormin Norman was molded. RIP

Ariel Pink has never been one to limit himself conceptually. Anything is fair game, whether it's a lyric that toys with the absurd, a frivolous twist of instrumentation, or imagery that creeps along the border of graphically inappropriate. While the overlying identity of his previous effort, Before Today, was cohesive and unified, his new one is a right-brained grab bag, pulling concepts from every weird crevice of his mind. Mature Themes has limited pop appeal, but its whimsical qualities makes it one of this year's most compelling listens. The single "Only In My Dreams" has Buffalo Springfield-like simplicity while, on the other end, "Farewell American Primitive" dazzles with an orchestrated and layered chunk of new wave. At times, the LP's over-caffeination creates an anxiety trap (the dizzying repetition of "step into my timewarp" is a doozy). But it always seems to find resolution. Whether in the spacy and resonant "Nostradamus & Me" or the stoned take of Donnie and Joe Emerson's "Baby," Mature Themes is paced with brilliance. Ariel Pink may be a wackjob to some and a genius to others, but there is no denying that his creativity is on another level. This album is more than enough proof.

Title X Male Services
Topics on this page: Male Family Planning Services | Approaches to Male Involvement in Family Planning
Male Family Planning Services
The Title X family planning program is required by law to provide family planning services, including information, education, counseling and clinical services to all individuals desiring such services, including males. Title X clinics provide education and counseling, condoms, STI testing and treatment, HIV testing and in some cases, vasectomy services to males.
The Office of Population Affairs (OPA) is committed to the development and integration of male-focused family planning and reproductive health services into family planning programs. Research shows that young men recognize unintended pregnancy, STDs and HIV/AIDS as serious problems and acknowledge that prevention is a joint responsibility. Experience has also shown that drawing males into family planning and reproductive health information and services programs requires approaches that focus on their unique needs. Males, as well as females, need to be offered services in culturally competent ways and in ways which serve the total individual.
While females continue to comprise the majority of the Title X clients, services to males tripled from 1999-2010. In 2010, 8% or 402, 292 men, were served in Title X programs.
Approaches to Male Involvement in Family Planning
OPA projects seek to develop family planning services and educational approaches which can be integrated into programs where males are already receiving health, education and social services in their communities. OPA funds research projects and trainings to improve outreach and service delivery to males. For example:
- In 2008, OPA funded a third round of Male Research Cooperative Agreements which assess the implementation of a three-tiered approach to providing family planning and related clinical services to males. The projects aim to reassess and modify the physical and administrative environment, provide staff training in methods for best serving males, and conduct focused outreach and make linkages with other community-based organizations which serve males.
- In 2004, OPA established the Family Planning Male Reproductive Health Training Center which continues to provide science-based information and training to Title X projects and family planning clinics to assist in developing and testing outreach models and to improve the quality of family planning and reproductive health information and services to males.
- Past projects have included innovative ways to include males such awarding small grants to Title X family planning clinics for employing male high school students as interns. The program was designed to provide participants with 1) information about allied health professions and job skills training, and 2) education on family planning, reproductive health and responsible sexual behavior.
Current and past research findings related to male reproductive health services have been shared with Title X providers and others interested in reaching and providing related care to males.

CNN: Two "active" Obama supporters at Bain confirm Romney left in 1999
posted at 12:41 pm on July 13, 2012 by Ed Morrissey
CNN reported last night that the accusations from Team Obama of felonious conduct are sheer nonsense and lies — and got that message from four executives at Bain, two of whom are "active" supporters of Barack Obama. John King spoke to all four, three of whom are Democrats, and all four said that Mitt Romney left Bain in a big hurry in 1999 in order to work full time on rescuing the Salt Lake City Olympics. The rushed departure created a lot of paperwork headaches as Bain tried to unwind Romney from leadership, which required a significant amount of time. That's why the company had Romney's name on their SEC paperwork the next two years, as King reports:
CNN isn't alone in debunking the ludicrous charge of felonious conduct made by Team Obama. FactCheck concluded that even with the "new" evidence produced by the Boston Globe, it still points to the same conclusion:
None of the SEC filings show that Romney was anything but a passive, absentee owner during that time, as both Romney and Bain have long said. It should not surprise anyone that Romney retained certain titles while he was working out the final disposition of his ownership, for example….
We would reassess our judgment should somebody come up with evidence that Romney took part in specific management decisions or had any active role (not just a title) at Bain after he left to head the Olympics. But nothing we've seen directly contradicts Romney's statements — which he has certified as true under pain of federal prosecution — that he "has not had any active role" with Bain or "been involved in the operations" of Bain since then.
And we wish to note, we're not alone in this judgement.
FactCheck links to the Washington Post's Glenn Kessler, as I did this morning, as well as to Fortune's Dan Primack in his July 2 review of the same data, this time from a Mother Jones "exposé." Primack also has an update, and it also debunks the Obama campaign's accusations:
But the contemporaneous Bain documents show that Romney was indeed telling the truth about no longer having operational input at Bain — which, one should note, is different from no longer having legal or financial ties to the firm.
As Fortune wrote earlier, Romney left Bain suddenly — rather than as part of an organized transition plan — after being asked to lead an Olympic organizing committee that had spiraled out of control. Moreover, it was unclear in February 1999 if Romney's leave of absence would be permanent, or if he would return (as he had in 1994, after losing a U.S.Senate race to Ted Kennedy). He didn't formally give up his title and firm ownership until 2002, once the Games had been successful and he was interested in other elective office. In the interim, he continued to fulfill legal obligations such as signing certain documents — but actual investment and managerial decisions were being made by others.
Put it simply: Team Obama is lying, and it continues to lie about Romney. They are desperate to find a way to make Romney's time at Bain work in their favor, and that desperation has nearly reached pathological levels. Still, for Obama, it beats talking about the economy, jobs, the deficit, and anything else that actually matters to voters.

Today I almost finished the wire storage thing I've been working on and it's looking great so far. I'll still have to look through the wire intersection code to make sure it's correct... shouldn't be much work left in that area though.
Next up is part storage, but that will be extremely trivial, now that I already have the wire code. Looks like a release on this side of xmas is possible after all :)
Other than codewise, I'm trying to be az lazy as possible while I still can... In January, I will start working fulltime so I deserve some lazyness now, I think ;)

I loved how we got to see Jango and Zam try to HELP Yarael Poof, not kill him like some of us thought. I also liked how we got to see Zam shapeshift. It is true, she IS a shapeshifter, cool. This is an awesome comic and is on the top of my list!

By NEMS Daily Journal
Tupelo's academic rites of spring include the annual naming of Rotary Scholars, the top 30 students in the seventh through 12th grades, plus additional students whose superior achievement is enhanced by the number of Advanced Placement courses taken.
The Rotary Scholars class of 2013, with the added criteria, totals 205 students.
Only eight seniors received special recognition for making the honors list all six years, an indicator of the rigor mastered in achieving top recognition.
The Rotary Scholars program is a collaborative effort of the club and the Tupelo schools.
The criteria and measuring of the students' achievement is administered by the school district using standards taking into account changes in the structure of classes and the learning environment, but the system does not play favorites.
Rotary Scholars is another benchmark showing the value Tupelo places on the quality of its public schools and the academic achievement of its students.
The event also showcases the value of parental involvement in their children's schooling. The crowd of hundreds at the Summit Convention Center included many of the parents of the students honored.
In context, parents, schools and the students form a partnership promoting higher achievement, an asset that can enhance personal success far beyond school years.
Great emphasis is placed on parental involvement in the early school years, but in reality few parents stop caring about academic progress of their high-school-age children, and parental involvement remains an important predictor of school outcomes through adolescence.
For example, one study demonstrated that parental school involvement is associated with adolescents' achievement and future aspirations.
It is almost certain that the parents and guardians of the Rotary Scholars honored Monday count continuing parental involvement, encouragement and other support as part of the reasons for their success.
Most of the students honored Monday would achieve at high levels even without recognition like the Rotary Scholars program, but citing exceptional achievement is a valuable encouragement in terms of making the expectations articulated in school connected to a predictable, positive culture of achievement.
Schools with clearly defined behavioral expectations and formal strategies for acknowledging and rewarding appropriate behavior are perceived as safer, more effective learning environments.
The delivery of rewards is one way in which young people learn that adults are serious about the goals they are teaching.

Like most creative projects, creating a family history book is immensely satisfying, and the result needn't be dull or boring. Remember Me by Lesley Graham just blew me away. Because it's so stunning, today's post is the first of a new series here at Before My Time, in which I'll feature family history books I've happened upon which may inspire you with new ideas for your own book project.
Described as "a thesis design book that focuses on memory loss and the journey one might face," Remember Me is utterly compelling. I am a big fan of "grunge" style, but like any design element, it has to serve the project it lives in first and foremost, or it's just visual clutter. In Remember Me grunge serves to perfection, carrying the message of the book in a way that words simply can't.
I encourage you to view the book at full-screen. Just click the little square box next to the Blurb logo. You may have to squint a bit to read the text, but it's worth doing!
- All the elements of a book--photos, fonts, background, text, colors, everything--combine to make the whole. Understanding the theme of your book helps you choose design elements accordingly. The better you stick to your theme, the more cohesive your book will be in the end.
- Snapshots! What a mixed blessing they are! The overwhelming majority are terrible, but sometimes they're all we've got to work with. Treatment is everything. In Remember Me, Graham uses what are essentially a bunch of bad snapshots as a metaphor for memory, advancing the theme of the book and thus turning bad photos into great ones.

Humanitarian Issues: Tackling environmental emergencies in slums
In September 2011, a fuel explosion and fire in the Mukuru-Sinai slums of Nairobi, Kenya, killed more than 100 people and left another 100 with serious burns.
The UN rushed a Rapid Environmental Emergency Assessment team to the scene, comprising experts from a Joint Environmental Unit run by OCHA and the UN Environmental Programme (UNEP).
The team determined that the fire was not caused by a pipeline explosion, as initially reported, but by an industrial accident at a nearby petrol-storage facility. The accident caused a large amount of petrol to enter a nearby storm-water drainage system.
While there was no immediate threat to the drinking water supply, the team found clear evidence of uncontrolled industrial waste being released into the drainage system and the surrounding Ngong River. The team also said there was significant potential for similar accidents in the future.
Around the world, a growing number of people are making their homes in informal settlements that have limited sanitation, poor housing and inadequate infrastructure.
These communities are particularly vulnerable to emergencies. Their homes are often built in environmentally vulnerable areas, such as hillsides or floodplains, or encroach on industrial sites and electric lines or near dispersed sewage. A lack of building codes increases the risk that houses will collapse.
The people living in these slums usually lack the means to move to less dangerous areas. Their savings are low and they cannot afford insurance. They also tend to lack access to legal representation and protection. Poor infrastructure and poor mapping make it difficult for rescue workers to reach these people during a disaster.
This is why the UN Conference on Sustainable Development (Rio +20), to be held 20-22 June 2012 in Brazil, aims to push preparedness, prevention and response to humanitarian and environmental emergencies up the international agenda.
Creating better risk assessment and hazard identification tools can help prevent and prepare for disasters. The Awareness and Preparedness for Emergencies at Local Level (APELL) programme - developed by UNEP and other partners - is providing information to communities to help them understand risks. It is also helping national and local authorities to create contingency plans.
APELL is being implemented in over 30 countries and 75 communities around the world. One example of APELL in action is in Barranquilla, Colombia, where the fire brigade, civil defense, Red Cross and local health services have engaged in emergency drills in nearby chemical plants.
If APELL is accepted in Kenya, it would provide tools to help decision makers and technical personnel create awareness. It would also help to prepare a coordinated response plan involving Government, industry and the local community.

Bird Conservation
Red-Cockaded Woodpecker Habitat Conservation Plan
The only woodpecker to excavate its home in living pine trees, the red-cockaded woodpecker (RCW) (Picoides borealis) was probably a common resident of mature southeastern U.S. pine forests at one time. However, populations of this non-migratory species have drastically declined, and the bird is now listed under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) because most of its required habitat has been altered through clearing, urbanization, incompatible forestry practices, and lack of periodic fire to maintain the pine stands in an open condition.
Most remaining RCWs exist on public lands such as national forests, national wildlife refuges, and military bases where large tracts of woodland habitat have been maintained in suitable condition. Many of these public land populations are under intensive management in an attempt to increase RCW numbers and recover the species from its endangered status. In Georgia, the largest public land populations are found at Fort Benning, Fort Stewart, Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge, and Piedmont National Wildlife Refuge/Oconee National Forest/Brender Demonstration Forest.
Some RCWs also remain on private land in Georgia. The Red Hills region of Thomas and Grady counties supports a substantial RCW population. Suitable habitat has been maintained incidentally on adjacent large tracts of private land managed primarily for bobwhite quail. Most of the other RCWs on private lands, however, belong to small, isolated populations on relict fragments of habitat. These birds are continuing to disappear without contributing to the future of the species because of ongoing loss and fragmentation of habitat, lack of beneficial management, and the negative effects of demographic isolation.
Private landowners are not required to contribute toward species recovery, only to avoid "take" as defined by the ESA. Avoidance of take necessitates that landowners do not disturb the cluster of cavity trees used by a family group of RCWs, and that they maintain sufficient nearby pine forest foraging habitat. Sufficient foraging habitat has been defined as a minimum of 3000 square feet basal area of pines at least 10 inches in diameter nearby and contiguous to the cavity trees. This can be somewhat expensive in lost income opportunity because landowners might have to alter intended management activities, such as timber harvest or clearing, that would result in take through loss of habitat.
In order to relieve the burden on the few private landowners with RCWs that belong to small, isolated populations, while at the same time benefiting the overall RCW population, the Georgia DNR WRD is developing a habitat conservation plan (HCP) and applying for a statewide incidental take permit as allowed by Section 10(a)(1)(B) of the ESA. Qualifying landowners can have RCW management responsibilities removed from their property once replacement groups of RCWs have been created or equivalent additional habitat has been committed to permanent management at another location where the birds can contribute to a recovery or support population. Replacement groups can be formed through translocation or habitat management above and beyond what would occur anyway. All impacted RCWs will be translocated before habitat can be rendered unsuitable.
In addition, "safe harbor" agreements will be available to any interested landowners wishing to maintain suitable RCW habitat without incurring increased management responsibility should the RCW population on their land increase. The baseline responsibility will be to maintain habitat for the number of RCW groups present at the time of the agreement. Safe harbor with a baseline of zero can be used to protect landowners who have no RCW on their land, but have a realistic probability of receiving dispersing birds from nearby occupied RCW habitat.

Saving the Bay through education, advocacy, litigation, and restoration.
A rain garden or wetland garden provides a beautiful solution to a troublesome patch of yard while helping reduce flooding and erosion. Photo by Marcy Damon/CBF Staff.
Successful school, organization, and community projects are popping up all over the watershed. Here a just a few to provide you with some inspiration.
Maryland: Centreville residents build 350 residential rain gardens, fourth-graders at Chesapeake Public Charter School turn a pollution runoff nightmare into paradise, and the Parkwood Civic Association build a living shoreline on Back Creek.
Pennsylvania: Antietam Meadows plants 600 trees, Lower Dauphin High School students build 12 rain barrels, the Ware family and Lancaster Township restore a floodplain, Lititz Run restored, Lemoyne's Market Street rain gardens, South Allison Hill revitalization
Virginia: Students and partners plant rain gardens at Linwood Holton Elementary School, The Academy at Virginia Randolph, and Fredericksburg Academy and start a composting program at Cub Run Elementary School.
One of the most common questions we're asked is "What can I do to help save the Bay?"
The short answer is to prevent polluted runoff—especially nitrogen, phosphorus, and sediment—from running into your local creeks, rivers, and the Chesapeake Bay. When water flows off of our streets, parking lots, and building rooftops, it picks up all kinds of pollutants like pet waste, sediment, fertilizers, pesticides, oil, and automotive fluids. As more houses, roads, and shopping centers are built, more of this polluted stormwater or runoff makes its way through gutters and storm drains to the nearest stream.
Here are 12 ways you can take real action to reduce polluted runoff. Many of these make great projects for your community, school, church, scout troup, garden club, or other group.
See below for more local and online resources you can use to help reduce pollution and Save the Bay™.
Members of CBF's Student Wave leadership program show how to install a rain barrel as a way to prevent polluted runoff, save water, and educate others.
View the webinar: MS4—Putting the Pieces Together
Here are a few helpful fact sheets:
Green Infrastructure Practices and Potential Funding Options
The Chesapeake Bay Foundation's work to reduce urban and suburban polluted runoff is sponsored, in part, by the William Penn Foundation. The William Penn Foundation is dedicated to improving the quality of life in the Greater Philadelphia region through efforts to close the achievement gap for low-income children, ensure a sustainable environment, foster creativity that enhances civic life, and advance philanthropy in the Philadelphia region.
"The main concern is for freshwater systems—ponds, lakes, and streams," says CBF Senior Scientist Beth McGee. "There have been studies done that show that elevated chloride (salt) concentration, from applying salt to streets, can be toxic to freshwater organisms."
Salt running into the Chesapeake Bay and its tidal rivers is less of a concern because these waterways are already brackish—a mixture of salty and fresh water. But, in general, no matter where we live, we all should try to minimize our use of road salt.
Under no circumstances, should people use lawn or garden fertilizer as an ice-melting substitute for spreading salt on their sidewalks and driveways, as the nitrogen and phosphorus make their way into waterways. The same goes for products that contain nitrogen-based urea.
If you're looking for an eco-friendly alternative, avoid sodium chloride, read ingredient lists, and do your homework. This review from Grist is a good place to start. (CBF does not endorse Grist's recommendations or any products listed.)
Local CBF EventsThe Chesapeake Bay Foundation provides workshops and restoration events throughout the Bay watershed where you can learn to build a rain barrel, help plant a stream buffer, work on a living shoreline, or participate in other clean-water projects in your community. Bookmark our online calendar and check it throughout the year for an event near you.
CBF's Student WaveStudent Wave is our student movement to #savethebay. See what kinds of projects high school students throughout the watershed are doing and share yours through photos, video, and more.
Storm Drain StencilingMany people are not aware that most storm drains lead directly to waterways that dump into the Bay. You can help clean up the Bay by stenciling a message that will help members of your community remember that nothing but rain water should enter the storm drains. Storm drains are not trash cans: whatever is dumped into them ends up in the Chesapeake Bay. Learn more about how to participate in this important project.
What Goes Down the Drain? (2006) This playful publication was designed mainly for fourth and fifth graders who want to find out what they can do to help stop pollutants from flowing into the Bay. It is a companion piece for the large, interactive drainpipe display that CBF uses at festivals, and it includes word scrambles, trivia questions, and other games.
Detox Your Home (2005) This poster colorfully illustrates things you can do to cut back on the use of dangerous chemicals in both your home and in your yard.
10 Things You Can Do To Save the Bay (2006) Think about the choices you make in your home, in your yard, and at your table. Consider making changes to help lessen pollution in our waterways. This colorful poster outlines ten things you can do to help make a difference.
State Erosion and Sediment Control OrdinancesCounties and states have their own erosion and sediment control ordinances. Become familiar with your local ordinance and the steps for reporting sites that are out of compliance.
You will begin to receive Bay updates from CBF soon.
In the meantime, join the Bay-friendly conversation on Facebook and Twitter!
CBF's investigative report Polluted Runoff: How Investing in Runoff Pollution Control Systems Improves the Chesapeake Bay Region's Ecology, Economy, and Health details the problems created by suburban and urban runoff pollution. And it offers steps that local, state, and federal governments can take to reduce pollution and achieve clean water for local streams, rivers, and the Chesapeake Bay.

We are excited to welcome Vicki Bellino to the Jolly Jabber for the first time ever!
Her new Aunt Grace Garden Party Block of the Month begins shipping at the Fat Quarter Shop in mid-September so make sure to reserve your spot before we sell out of this wonderful Block of the Month.
Judie Rothermel and I have become good friends over the years and learned that we both have an aunt who has had a major influence on our lives – Judie's Aunt Grace and my Aunt Janet. After introducing our first Aunt Grace BOM, Circle of Friends, at quilt market in May 2010, we immediately began collaborating on a new concept for the next one.
We discussed the color palette Judie had in mind which would be used in a variety of small to large-scale florals and flower prints. After learning that both of our aunts were not only avid quilters, but shared a love of gardening and belonged to their local gardening clubs, it was a natural choice that Garden Party would be the theme of the next BOM. We also agreed to "change up" the typical BOM concept by using a block each month to make a horizontal row.
With all of that information floating around in my head, and the color fabric cards pinned on the wall, I began to design Aunt Grace's Garden Party. In addition to the beautiful prints in this fabric line, I have also incorporated several of the 1930's solids that seem to go hand-in-hand with traditional 1930's quilts. My design concept was to add my own spin on what might be considered "traditional" 1930's quilt blocks. I had such a wonderful response to the English paper piecing technique used in Circle of Friends, that I knew I would include this technique in Garden Party. (Besides, and as many of you may know, I am an avid English paper piecer.)
This six-month BOM includes several different techniques with easy-to-follow instructions and diagrams. I hope you enjoy participating in this program as much as I did designing it!

Family: Bovidae, Cattle, Goats, and Sheep view all from this family
Description North Americas largest land mammal. Has a distinctive humped profile with larger forequarters and smaller hindquarters; these traits are more pronounced in males. The brown wooly pelage is thickest around the neck, extending onto the shoulders and back in males. Males also have larger horns, which are stouter and more curled; female horns are more slender with upward pointing tips. Calves are reddish. Hair is longer in the winter. The Endangered Wood Bison (B. b. athabascae) from western Canada is slightly taller, darker, and woolier, with a larger hump than the Plains Bison (B. b. bison).
Dimensions 3.0-3.8m, 43-90cm, 460-907kg; / 2.1-3.2m, 43-90cm, 360-544kg
Breeding Breeding season is July-August, gestation length is 285 days, and females have only a single calf with birth coinciding with spring greenup. Females leave the herd and lie down to give birth. The female fiercely defends the newborn calf. Sexual maturity is reached at age 2.
Habitat Forests & woodlands, Grasslands & prairies, Meadows & fields
Range Rocky Mountains, Western Canada, Alaska
Discussion Wallows 2-3m wide are used by all ages and sexes. Prairie rock rubs worn smooth by 10,000 years of use usually rest at the bottom of a slight depression formed by countless hoofs circling the stone as the bison rubbed against it. Tens of millions of bison were nearly hunted to extinction (probably fewer than 1000 animals left) at the end of the nineteenth century, the species had recovered to ca. 150,000 animals by 1995, with 90% privately owned. Typically grazes in herds of 4-20, these groups sometimes merge into much larger congregations. Herds provide protection from predators, and stampedes are a predator-avoidance behavior. Males have a repertoire of threat displays, both visual and vocal, to establish dominance relationships, but rarely resort to all-out battles. When they do occur, these battles are epic, the large bulls slamming into each other, shearing out gouts of hair with their horns, and on rare occasions, dying from a horn that penetrates the ribcage. Most breeding happens in a 2-week period, and the one-third of the males that are dominant breed with two-thirds of the females. This means that the large male bison are heavily selected for fighting specialists, while the much smaller females reproductive success depends more on competition for food. When a cow comes into estrus, she is quickly tended by a bull, who may then be replaced by a more dominant bull. Reaching their highest density in mixed and short-grass prairies, these gregarious grazers can survive in a variety of open habitats.

China, once the world's "growth engine," has now become a cause for concern.
That's one of the takeaways from Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis President James Bullard's dissent of the FOMC's decision to lay out a course for the end of quantitative easing, a dissent he elaborated on in a statement on the St. Louis Fed website and in the Washington Post.
On the St. Louis Fed's Bullard urged his colleagues to focus less on the unemployment rate and more on inflation–or the lack thereof.
In his view, the Committee should have more strongly signaled its willingness to defend its inflation target of 2 percent in light of recent low inflation readings. Inflation in the U.S. has surprised on the downside during 2013. Measured as the percent change from one year earlier, the personal consumption expenditures (PCE) headline inflation rate is running below 1 percent, and the PCE core inflation rate is close to 1 percent. President Bullard believes that to maintain credibility, the Committee must defend its inflation target when inflation is below target as well as when it is above target.
Jefferies' Thomas Simons marvels at the "aggressive communication."
St. Louis Fed President Bullard released a statement to the press this morning in which he claimed that the outlook for QE was "inappropriately timed" and defended his dissent at the meeting in favor of a faster pace of asset purchases. He is very concerned about the lack of upward pressure on inflation and disagrees with the notion that the current low readings are "transitory". This is an aggressive communication (I can't recall ever having seen a press release of this nature from an individual on the FOMC following a meeting). If inflation remains low, Bullard will continue to beat the drum for an increase in the pace of the purchases of QE3.
Bullard explained to the Washington Post why he believes low inflation is not transitory but an emerging problem.
…since the first part of 2012, inflation measures have been coming back down, so now we're back in a low inflation environment, lower than I expected. Yet the committee has sort of turned maybe a little bit more circumspect about how they want to respond to that.
That's where we are. One thing that hasn't happened this time, when we adopted this QE3, and really the full-fledged QE3 is really December of 2012. We've been in this game for about 5 months. And we have not had the. What's missing? It's the global commodities price boom that occurred with QE2, that is not occurring this time. It's really clear why that is. Europe's in recession and China's slowing. That's why. From our perspective, we could say let's continue and provide more accommodation, because that channel isn't hitting us so hard this time as it did during QE2. Why don't we just continue the program, and eventually inflation will go back up to target? I guess that's how I'm thinking about it right now.
With that mention of China, Bullard seems to be acknowledging what many investors are just starting to notice: China ain't what it used to be. That view is becoming more commonplace, especially since China has allowed its money market rates to surge. Pavilion Global Markets explains the significance:

By Tiernan Ray
Nokia (NOK) this evening said it named the head of its network equipment business, Rajeev Suri, its new chief executive officer, and announced a program of dividends and buybacks totaling €5 billion.
Suri has run the Nokia-Siemens Networks, or NSN, unit since 2009.
Suri replaces interim CEO Risto Siilasmaa, chair of Nokia's board, who will retain his board leadership. Siilasmaa said of Suri, "He has a proven ability to create strategic clarity, drive innovation and growth, ensure disciplined execution, and deliver results. We believe that his passion for technology will help ensure that Nokia continues to deliver innovations that have a positive impact on people's lives."
The release states Nokia's strategy in its three businesses as follows:
Through its Networks business (formerly Nokia Solutions and Networks, or NSN), Nokia will invest in the innovative products and services needed by telecoms operators to manage the increase in wireless data traffic which is more than doubling every year. Future investment will focus on further building on our strong position in mobile broadband and related services, and strengthening our leadership position in next-generation network technologies [...] Through its HERE business, Nokia will invest to further develop its location cloud to make it the leading source of location intelligence and experiences across many different operating systems, platforms and screens. Given that location is an essential element of a connected world, we will target our investment in three areas: 1) technology for smart, connected cars; 2) cloud-based services for personal mobility and location intelligence, including for the growing segment of wearables and special purpose devices; and 3) location-based analytics for better business decisions [...] Through its Technologies business, Nokia will invest in the further development of its industry-leading innovation portfolio. This will include 1) expanding our successful intellectual property licensing program; 2) helping other companies and organizations benefit from our breakthrough innovations through technology licensing; and 3) exploring new technologies for use in potential future products and services.
Nokia said its board had undertaken a review of the company's finances and believes the company can afford to offer €800 million in ordinary dividends, spit between last year and this year, at €0.11 per ordinary share, plus a special dividend of 26 euro cents per share, or €1 billion, and a plan to repurchase €1.25 billion of company stock. The company also plans to pay down €2 billion of its debt by the middle of 2016. Nokia's ordinary shares traded in Helsinki closed down 2% on Monday at €5.14. The US ADRs closed off 3.3% at $7.03.
Tonight's announcement follows the formal completion on Friday of the company's sale of its handset business to Microsoft (MSFT).

Deeplinks Blog posts about Copyright Trolls
EFF, Public Knowledge, and the Center for Democracy and Technology Urge The United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit to Protect Internet Subscribers in BMG v. Cox.
No one should have to fear losing their Internet connection because of unfounded accusations. But some rights holders want to use copyright law to force your Internet service provider (ISP) to cut off your access whenever they say so, and in a case the Washington Post called "the copyright case that should worry all Internet providers," they're hoping the courts will help them.
Abusive Site-Blocking Tactics By American Bridal and Prom Industry Association Collapse Under Scrutiny
In early 2012, after a massive public outcry, Congress abandoned the proposed SOPA bill that would have authorized broad, ex parte site-blocking orders. One of SOPA's most worrying features was that it would have created new, easy-to-obtain court orders against third parties, such as domain name registrars, ad networks, payment providers, and search engines. Unfortunately, some rightsholders have been trying to convince courts that existing law already allows them to get the same sort of site-blocking orders. They are wrong.
With a presidential election looming this fall, mass media and social media will be more focused on policy issues over the next several months than likely at any other point until 2020. We've put together a questionnaire for the candidates to invite them to explain their own policy platforms. We'll let you know what they say, and in the meantime encourage others to ask these questions themselves at campaign events, fundraisers, town halls, or informal appearances.
As a tax-exempt non-profit organization, we are forbidden from endorsing or opposing any candidate for office, so to be clear: we think voters can and should make their own choices. But we also think it's important for voters to know where the candidates stand on a variety of issues implicating digital rights, from the TPP to mass surveillance. These might not be the only issues that matter in choosing a candidate, but they are important to consider.
Here are a few questions that EFF is asking:
The Proposal Is Unfair to Both Users and Media Platforms
There's a debate happening right now over copyright bots, programs that social media websites use to scan users' uploads for potential copyright infringement. A few powerful lobbyists want copyright law to require platforms that host third-party content to employ copyright bots, and require them to be stricter about what they take down. Big content companies call this nebulous proposal "notice-and-stay-down," but it would really keep all users down, not just alleged infringers. In the process, it could give major content platforms like YouTube and Facebook an unfair advantage over competitors and startups (as if they needed any more advantages). "Notice-and-stay-down" is really "filter-everything."
In recent years, the stock photo industry has sent out thousands of boiler plate demand letters asking Internet users to pay for photos that appear on blogs and other websites. In many cases, the industry appears to be leveraging the threat of litigation to extract settlements well beyond any actual harm. At other times, these demand letters have carelessly targeted licensed uses and fair uses. Today EFF is helping a website owner respond to an improper attack on fair use by License Compliance Services, Inc. (LCS).

In Seasons 1 and 2, she lives in Brooklyn with Dan and Rufus, she is joined for a short time by her mother, however her parents decide to split for good, so her mother moves back to Hudson. In Season 3, Jenny moves in with her new family; step-mother Lily, step-siblings Chuck, Serena and Eric. She is now living in the center of Manhattan but this turns out to be a mistake; she is banished by Blair and decides to live with her mother in Hudson. She returns to Manhattan for brief periods in Season 4, but still lives in Hudson.
Season 1 Timeline
- Roman Holiday - Jenny is seen singing Santa Baby with the Constance Billard Choir.She spends christmas with her family, and even helps Dan sneak a christmas tree into Serena's hotel room. She tells Dan how she feels about Rufus and Alison's relationship, and Dan consoles her as she is upset.
- A Thin Line Between Chuck and Nate - Jenny tells Nate about Blair's affair with Chuck. After Blair gets humiliated by her posse, Jenny gets higher in the ranks of the girls, and even is offered her own minion to order around now. Blair threatens to ruin Jenny's life, but Jenny isn't afraid of her anymore.
being one of the school it-girls, she is driven to prove herself, but her low self-confidence that stems from not having the same privileged financial status as the other girls, provokes her to sell her sewing machine and barter an expensive dress she stole from one of her friends. When Blair throws her a surprise birthday party as a part of her scheme to take back her minions and become Queen Bee again, the other girls discover that Jenny stole the dress, bringing Blair's scheme to a success. Jenny retaliates by bringing Nate with her to Blair's victory party and persuades the girls to her side. Jenny and Blair then struggle for the position of Queen Bee. When Jenny thinks she's found true love with Asher Hornsby, their romance is short-lived when she discovers that he is gay. He convinces her to say that she lost her virginity to him in order to put the rumors of him being gay to rest, and as long as she pretends it's true, he'll give her privileges that Upper East Side can offer. However, Blair and Eric out Asher at his own party, and Jenny confesses that she lied about having sex with him. Blair's clique abandons Jenny once again, and she later finds Blair to tell her that she's won as it's "not worth it". In the season finale, Jenny receives an internship at Blair's mother Eleanor's company.
Season 2
At the beginning of season two, Jenny spends her summer working hard as a new intern for Eleanor Waldorf designs. She apologizes to Eric for her behavior the previous season. He forgives her and invites her to the White Party in the Hamptons where he introduces her to Tinsley Mortimer and where she proves her worth to one of Eleanor's supervisors.
Eleanor fires Jenny after a critical remark on one of her dresses, but during a citywide blackout, Eleanor realizes her talent and hires Jenny. After constant harassment by Blair's minions, Jenny decides to skip school to pursue a future in fashion.
When Blair and Serena have another fight concerning Serena's growing popularity, Jenny is dragged into their fight during Eleanor's fashion show and is subject to Blair's torture when she changes the seating arrangement that Blair had initially planned. Blair informs Rufus that Jenny has been skipping school and he confronts her. Blair attempts to sabotage Jenny's work in the show but Jenny improvises, proposing that Serena and the socialites walk the runway. In an effort to ruin Serena, Blair switches the final dress with one that Jenny made, drawing Eleanor's ire. Despite this, the dress is a huge hit with the audience and the fashion show is a big success. Jenny realizes Blair's frustrations regarding her friendship with Serena, commenting that they have worked hard for what they have wanted and Serena just glides through.
Rufus eventually agrees to Jenny being home schooled after seeing how committed and good at her job she is. At work, Jenny befriends a model named Agnes Andrews , who convinces her to start her own fashion line. Realizing that working for Eleanor won't help her develop as a designer and that Eleanor herself has begun to take advantage of Jenny's talents in fashion, Jenny leaves. Jenny also begins a short relationship with Nate when they share a passionate kiss after he rescues her from being taken advantage of by an older photographer. Jenny and Rufus argue over her quitting Eleanor's and Jenny moves out of the Humphrey's apartment and moves in with Agnes, who suggests that they plan a guerrilla fashion show at the charity gala honoring Lily and Bart. The show is a big success but Vanessa witnesses her kissing Nate thereby straining their friendship and Rufus tries to get her arrested but was stopped by Lily. Due to Agnes' fiery temper and their growing disagreements over the clothing line, the pair have trouble closing a business deal. Jenny steals Agnes' contact list, attempting to make a deal by herself. Upon learning of Jenny's betrayal, Agnes burns all of her dresses and kicks her out of her apartment, leaving her with nothing.
Upon learning that she is too young to start her own business, she attempts to file for emancipation but Rufus refuses. On Thanksgiving, Lily finds the papers after discovering that Jenny has been hiding in their apartment with Eric, and warns Rufus. Rufus and Jenny reconcile their relationship, after a little persuasion from Eleanor and she returns home. During the Snowflake Ball, Jenny learns that Vanessa and Nate are back together even though Vanessa was aware of Nate's feelings for her. Nate breaks up with her after she helps to humiliate Vanessa at the ball. Jenny returns to Constance and is forced to contend with Blair's minions.
During the season finale and Serena's hunt for Gossip Girl, Jenny decides to compete to be the next Queen Bee after Blair leaves. She almost drops out, but Blair gives her a touching speech about keeping her eye on the prize. In the end Blair chooses Jenny and crowns her queen of Constance.
Season 3
After Jenny fails to bring about egalitarianism at Constance, she resolves to rule as Queen Bee with her own group of minions. With her new position and wealth, Jenny's social climbing persona resurfaces and she begins to erase her former Brooklyn self, throwing away her homemade clothes and sewing machine. Worried that Jenny is turning into another regular Queen Bee, Eric and Jonathon attempt an intervention but as a result are humiliated by Jenny and her clique. Eric teams up with Blair to take down Jenny at the Cotillion Ball by sabotaging her escort. The plan backfires however and Jenny instead secures none other than Nate to escort her, winning her the respect of the other Queens at every other prep school on the Upper East Side. As a consequence of Eric's scheming, Jonathan breaks up with him and a rift emerges in Jenny and Eric's relationship.
Chuck introduces her to Damien Dalgaard, son of the Belgian ambassador who works as a drug dealer to make his own money. Jenny liking his wild lifestyle, eventually strikes up a relationship with him and aids him in supplying drugs to his customers while sharing in some of the profit, even stealing some of Lily's "headache pills". Eventually Lily and Rufus find out about the drugs, which Damien covers up with a story about his father. Against Rufus's will, Jenny continues her relationship with Damien who seems interested in taking it further. Jenny, who is a virgin, backs out at the last minute causing Damien to break up with her, leaving her to face her family.
On Rufus' suggestion, Eleanor reemploys Jenny to help out with her upcoming fashion show. Jenny is happy to be back, but is shocked to learn that one of the models she'll be working with is her old friend Agnes, who, after the show finishes, takes revenge on Jenny by drugging her and leaving her in a bar to be taken advantage of. Jenny is rescued by Nate, however before anything happens to her. Because of this though, Jenny's feeling towards Nate reawakens and she aspires to win him over. She tries to kiss him but he resists her advances because he sees her only as a friend and because he is dating Serena. Jenny attempts to sabotage Serena and Nate's relationship by lying to Serena and implying to Nate that she is having an affair with Carter Baizen. Jenny's attempts fail, and her relationship with both is left tenuous after Nate kicks her out of his apartment.
At a gala event where Serena's recently returned father William Van Der Woodsen is making a speech, a former client of Damien's approaches Jenny, angrily telling her the drugs she sold her (Lily's cancer medication) gave her a yeast infection. Rufus overhears this and grounds Jenny to the Humphrey apartment in Brooklyn. During her punishment, Jenny researches Lily's medicine and informs Chuck via telephone that there is something very wrong about the medication that Serena's father is prescribing her. It is discovered that, William has lied to Lily about her condition and has been giving her drugs that in fact make her sick in a plot to win her back off Rufus. Seeing an opportunity to break up Rufus and Lily and return her family to the way it was before, Jenny attempts to sabotage Blair, Chuck, and Nate's plan to unveil William's deception. When William is about to be held accountable, she quickly runs to William and warns him, telling him that the police will be coming to get him, and urges him to escape. Back at the van der Woodsen penthouse she reveals that it was she who warned Dr. van der Woodsen and that she wishes her family can go back to normal stating "When I lived in Brooklyn, I may have had to ride the subway to school, and make my own clothes, but at least our family was happy". Rufus says that the only thing that needs to return to normal is Jenny. Eric is hurt by Jenny's attempt to leave the family, and says that if she wants out, no one is forcing her to stay.
Jenny hits rock bottom after sending a picture of Dan and Serena in bed together to Gossip Girl, jeopardizing Dan and Nate's friendship, Dan and Vanessa's relationship, and breaking up Nate and Serena's relationship. Blair confronts Jenny telling her that "Nate loves Serena, Dan loves Vanessa -god knows why-, and Chuck loves me. But you Jenny? No one loves you, except your daddy. And after what you pulled yesterday, who knows if that's even true anymore?" Emotionally distressed, Jenny goes to Nate's apartment but instead finds Chuck devastated over his break-up with Blair and in her state of vulnerability, Jenny loses her virginity to Chuck. However, afterwards, Blair arrives willing to take Chuck back and Jenny sneaks out. She breaks down in tears to Eric, telling him that everyone hates her and that she slept with Chuck. Eric tells Dan, who confronts Chuck just as he is about to propose to Blair. Jenny, in tears, leaves with Rufus and Lily. A week later, she says her goodbyes to her family and leaves to finish out high school with her mother in Hudson.
Season 4
Jenny has been living in Hudson with her mother since May due to the troubles that occurred in "Last Tango, Then Paris".
The end of the episode "Goodbye, Columbia" shows Chuck talking on the phone to Veronica (a woman who works with Tim Gunn) regarding an interview with Gunn for a returning Jenny.
Jenny is back in episode "Easy J" and returns to the upper east side with a bang. She is preparing for an interview with Tim Gunn and wants everything to be perfect. Blair visits the Van Der Woodsen/Humphrey apartment to discover Jenny is hiding out there. She instantly decides to send her back to Hudson but Jenny asks for a special one-off visit, and Blair allows it agreeing to her never setting foot in New York for the rest of the year. But when Chuck steals Jenny's portfolio she is forced to break her promise and go the Empire hotel which Blair had forbidden her to go. Blair and Jenny start scheming against each other again. And Jenny tells Gossip Girl that she lost her Virginity to Chuck, which makes Blair embarrassed and defeated. She tells Blair and Chuck that she wants to become a better person and is fed up of the scheming and games. She then returns to Hudson after telling Chuck and Blair that if their vindictive games towards each other continued, they would destroy each other.
In the next episode, Jenny lies and says she has a test to study for and that is why she can't make it to the Upper East Side for Lily and Rufus' anniversary. Eric and Dan know that she is afraid to come home because she is afraid of Blair and Chuck and of turning into the person she used to be. So Dan tries a few schemes himself but realizes that he is turning into Blair and Chuck as well.
In "Juliet doesn't live here anymore" Juliet and Vanessa skype Jenny asking for help to take down Serena. Jenny knows that she doesn't want to go back to her old tricks but also feels like Serena is the one to blame for everything that happened last year and how she can never take blame for anything, so, Jenny agrees and a few days later gets to the train out to New York to help with the scheme.
Jenny later becomes involved in a scheme with Juliet Sharp and Vanessa in order to bring down Serena and turn everyone against her. But when Serena ends up in the hospital after being drugged by Juliet, Jenny tells Juliet that she is going to come clean with everyone about their scheme, but Juliet warns her that she will be going down alone. When Jenny appears at the hospital, Vanessa has already pinned the entire scheme on her and unable to defend herself, she leaves, showing up at Blair's later that night, telling her that Juliet was behind everything and that she and Vanessa were merely accomplices. To prove her story, she hands Blair Juliet's masquerade mask and has temporarily earned Blair's forgiveness. After confessing to Blair, she says that she would love to help her take down Juliet, but she should instead return to Hudson, rather than become involved in another scheme.

I used this to cover new drywall. The primer built in works great! It saved a step and looks great. I only had to put on two coats. After the first one it looked great, there were a few spots that needed touch up, but we put a second coat over everything anyways! If you're painting, then save time and buy this paint with the primer in it, it's worth it!

HI all.
I have not been here in a long time due to our old friend stress, but I did get a welcome reprive at this years OLS.
I just posted an article on the front page that sums up what I learned at the BOF that I held..
I was hoping to post this yesterday but somehow some dimbulb managed to get an Ant Trap into my Backyard where the dog Got a chance to chew on it, so that day went by in a blur of visits to the vet, and reporting things to the police.
Take care everyone

Topeka Capital Markets's Brian White today raises his rating on shares of Juniper Networks (JNPR) to Buy from Hold, and raises his price target from $19 to $21, writing that after two years of avoiding recommending the stock, he's now drawn by the fact sentiment is "overly negative, profit growth has returned and a new product cycle is on the horizon."
Juniper shares today are up 34 cents, or 2%, at $16.13.
Juniper's development of new products in 2010 and 2011, such as QFabric and MobileNext drove up operating expenses, he observes, while payoff from the products in revenue terms was "pushed out," with the result that revenue fell 2% in 2012 and EPS fell 28%.
But now White sees 26% EPS growth this year, as revenue from new products, including QFabric, MobileNext, the "T4000" system, the "PTX," and the "ACX" is on track to reach $600 million annually, he writes.
"We recognize that spending in the service provider and enterprise market (and
security will remain tough for JNPR) will remain challenged," writes White. "However, we believe Juniper has the opportunity to gain share in routers, switches and new products."
White is modeling $4.52 billion in revenue and $1.08 per share in profit this year, versus Street consensus of $4.5 billion and $1.14.
