One of the most exciting challenges in photographic education is to guide students to their own means of expression within the context of this constantly evolving medium. I ask students to take personal risks with their work, and support both their failures and their successes. Teaching has been an amazing source of inspiration in my own practice, and my students are constantly reminding me of the power of image-making. My greatest reward as an educator is watching my students find the value and force of their own artistic voices.
Christine Collins received her BA from Skidmore College and her MFA from Massachusetts College of Art + Design.

Greening the charcoal sector in Uganda
Since her childhood, Kampala-based Martha Ntabadde has considered charcoal an essential household good. "We've used charcoal and firewood for cooking for many decades. Charcoal serves us as a reliable and more convenient source of energy," says Martha.
According to the German Agency for International Cooperation (GIZ), 90 percent of the Ugandan population uses charcoal or firewood-based cook stoves. Since charcoal is always high in demand, traders at Kampala's markets call it 'black gold'.
- In Uganda 80,000 hectares of forests are being cleared every year for unsustainable charcoal production
- For 90 percent of Ugandans charcoal is an essential good for cooking
- Improved kilns need over 30% less charcoal than traditional kilns
However, the production of charcoal and use of inefficient cook stoves leave a substantial environmental footprint, for example the uncontrolled gathering of wood contributes to deforestation. The National Forestry Authority estimates that 80,000 hectares of private and protected forests are being cleared annually in Uganda for the unsustainable production of charcoal and timber.
Aiming to build the capacity of developing countries to harness the resources of the carbon market, the United Nations Development Programme's MDG Carbon programme links carbon finance to the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). UNDP developed a Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Action (NAMA) study for Uganda's charcoal sector. The study is a part of a broader initiative involving UNDP and other UN agencies, aimed at greening the sector. This initiative encompasses all elements of the value chain from cutting down trees to the end user's cook stove.
Finalized in December 2012, the NAMA study deals with the improvement of the production, transportation and sale of charcoal. For example, at the production level the study focuses on local producers and the efficiency of their kilns.
"To make a significant reduction in emissions, it's essential to look at the charcoal sector in a holistic way. Thus, an improvement of the whole charcoal value chain is an imperative for transformation of the charcoal sector," says Martha, who works today as a senior consultant in the field of climate change adaptation and mitigation.
In Uganda, like many other countries in the region, charcoal production is predominantly undertaken by rural populations in unorganized groups or by individuals. Many producers carry the charcoal to the nearest road and sell it at collection points to traders for a fluctuating daily price.
As the charcoal producers constitute the 'poorest of the poor', the incentive of a significantly higher, stable and assured source of income is expected to be a key driver to shift to more sustainable practices.
The introduction of more efficient portable kilns will enable many producers to continue their current trading styles, but reduces emissions of harmful black carbon and other pollutants as well as the use of wood. While traditional kilns use eight to 12 kilograms of wood for the production of one kilogram of charcoal, the improved kilns only need three to four kilograms.
Another component of the design developed in the study is the creation of an official institution at the district level. This charcoal unit would be charged with, among other activities, purchasing charcoal from producers, categorizing the type of charcoal so producers can be paid a differentiated value based on whether or not the product is sustainable.
The goal of the study is to provide Uganda with an opportunity to help shape its future low-carbon development. Reforming the charcoal sector is currently one of the most important opportunities for developing countries to reduce emissions and achieve multiple sustainable development outcomes.

Arsène Wenger admits Andrey Arshavin's lack of match action makes it difficult for him to slot seamlessly back into the team.
Arshavin started a Premier League match for the first time since the defeat at Blackburn when Fulham earned a 1-1 draw at Emirates Stadium on Saturday.
Wenger believes it is tough for a player to shine after a prolonged spell on the sidelines but backed the Russian to find his best form in the near future.
"I believe it is difficult for a player when he doesn't play regularly to be absolutely exceptional," said the Frenchman.
"I don't think he had a bad game but I think he suffered a little bit from the fact we were not as sharp as we might have been.
"Your confidence is not at the top as well when you don't play for one month. You need to play regularly.
"He will come back. He works hard in training and has a good attitude so we just have to keep him tight."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

Bordelle just pulled off an amazing feat. Something that's not happened to me in my lifetime yet and might not again for some time. They placed before my eyes a pair of high-cut V shaped briefs – the kind of cut you'd expect to see on Elle Macpherson in Sports Illustrated circa 1985 – and, despite my better judgement, despite all of the 80s horrors flashing through my mind, I can't help but like them.
Perhaps it's because they give off a mildly super-hero vibe, or perhaps it's the leather harness accessorising that gives it a thoroughly modern update. But this resurrection of a long-dead cut suddenly doesn't seem so bad at all.
Elsewhere in Bordelle's winter 2011 look book the cuts are a little more as expected: vintage-style high waists and full cups dominate, with the addition of some very fetishist spikes in surprise places.
For more of Bordelle's vintage-cum-fetish offerings, click on the thumbnails and peruse their winter 2011 look book.

LISTEN: Will.i.am releases '#thatPower' featuring Justin Bieber
Listen to Justin Bieber on iHeartRadio
Justin Bieber is reminding all of his haters that he's above their criticism - thanks to will.i.am, who has released their new collaboration called "#thatPOWER."
Will.i.am dropped the dance track through Twitter last Friday, after hinting to "Capital FM" last week that he had a big-name collaboration up his sleeve as his next single, calling it "a doozy" and "spectacular."
Listen below:
The Black Eyed Peas rapper, who celebrated his 38th birthday over the weekend, also added that he and the Biebs recorded the new song during the BRIT awards earlier this year.
"#thatPOWER" will be on will.i.am's upcoming solo album willpower, which is expected out by the end of April.

Brent and David,
Not to be snippy here --- or maybe the honest phrasing is, "to _be_
snippy about snipping" --- but have neither of you ever encountered the
concept of snipping out the irrelevant portions of a message to which
you are responding?
In the present instance at least, readers had to page down through three
to four _screenfuls_ of essentially irrelevant quotes in Brett's
original posting in order to get to _three lines_ of actual information,
and then do this once again in David's reply to get to his _two lines_
of further response?
Doesn't your newsreader make it easy to do that?

Summit County police blotter: Manager vs. employee conflict
October 7, 2012
SCSO: Manager allegedly assaults employee
A local resort employee called the police after he said a manager hit him with a door following an argument about random drug testing.
The man told police he'd gone into work for a urine analysis and had gotten into a disagreement with a manager about the frequency of the random drug tests, according to a report from the Summit County Sheriff's Office.
The manager suggested the two continue the conversation outside and then pushed the employee toward the door with both hands, the man told authorities.
Once outside, the argument reportedly continued. When the manager stopped to take a phone call, the man decided to go back inside the building. As he was opening the door he said the manager slammed it on him, hurting his shoulder, according to the report.
A friend who had dropped the employee off for the test and was waiting in the car said he saw the alleged assault as well, the report stated.
When authorities contacted her, the manager said the employee was belligerent when he walked in and that she swore she did not touch him or slam a door on him, according to the report.
She was charged with third-degree assault.
Angry bar patron still unidentified
Breckenridge police have been unable to track down a suspect who punched a blackboard in the entrance hall of a local hotel and bar and then tore up the receipt for his tab.
The man is recorded on video surveillance punching the blackboard and then paying his tab at the bar before "trying to destroy the signature line by ripping up the receipt," a Breckenridge police report states.
A different man later returned and left money for the blackboard.
BPD: Car window broken at Breck impound lot
The rear passenger window of a car parked at a local impound lot was broken in late September, according to a report from the Breckenridge Police Department.
The owner of the tow company said he had seen the car, with windows intact, two days before, and he suspected the residence of a nearby apartment complex might have been involved in the vandalism.
The damage was valued at $500.
BPD: Bikes stolen from Breck restaurant
Two bikes were reported stolen from a restaurant in Breckenridge Oct. 1.
The owners said they rode their bikes to the restaurant to watch a football game the night before and locked them in front of the business before going inside, according to a Breckenridge police report.
After the game, they decided to walk home, but checked to make sure the bicycles were still there.
When one of the owners returned the following day, the bikes were missing.
They were valued at a total of $550, according to the report.
Officers were unable to find the stolen bikes listed for sale on Craigslist, the report stated.

Hello my name is Frankie and I am new to this forum. I am currently applying for local CELTA courses, as I want to gain a qualification so that I am able to teach English abroad.
However it has been a while since I left education, and I am aware that although my written and spoken English are good, my grammar skills need improvement!
I was wondering if any one could advise me on the best way to prepare myself for the CELTA course, and what to expect. Having not been in education for a while, and not having a degree, I am slightly nervous. I have taught in schools in India about HIV and Aids, and I am extremely passionate and determined to achieve this qualification as it was the best experience of my life. However I am looking for a more sustainable way to travel and teach.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your help!

Brazil is a great destination for those who love culture, sun and sand and eco tourism. Festivals and traditions like Carnival are a great tourist attraction; the food and the nightlife are also spectacular. Brazil has architecture and history that make it a very interesting place to visit, and people visit for many different reasons. The massive sprawling cities attract one type of visitor, whilst the rapidly-dwindling rainforest attracts another. Brazil is a land of contrasts, of extremes, of vibrancy and fascination. Rio de Janeiro is a popular place for resort-type vacations with music and great food. Alternatively, the wondrous Amazon River provides plenty of opportunity for eco-tours and adventure. There are also many other outdoor tours and attractions if youre looking for rugged adventure.

Translator's Note: Hollywood Elegies
Because I was born and raised in Los Angeles, I've always been fascinated by the stories of the German writers and composers who took shelter there during the Nazi period. If you grow up in la, it doesn't take long to figure out that history is something that takes place elsewhere. That's why the idea of Thomas Mann in Pacific Palisades or Bertolt Brecht in Santa Monica, places I knew as a child, is so powerfully strange. These artists came at the end of an infinitely complex, self-conscious, and tragic cultural tradition. Yet they were living in a place that was (and maybe still is) synonymous with democratic opportunity and natural benevolence—the very qualities that drew my own grandparents to Southern California, from Brooklyn, during the wwii years.
I first encountered these poems by Brecht as the texts of songs by Hanns Eisler, a German composer who was exiled from Nazi Germany on account of his Communist politics, and spent the war years composing music for Hollywood films. At the same time, he wrote more than two hundred lieder, including many settings of Brecht, who also fled Germany in 1933 and ended up in Los Angeles in 1941. Brecht and Eisler had been friends and collaborators in Weimar Germany, and they worked together on one film, Hangmen Also Die. But the so-called "Hollywood Songbook" expresses—in Eisler's tense, largely atonal music as in Brecht's verse—their feelings of despair and alienation in the midst of California's peace and abundance.
The first five poems I've translated are from the group Brecht called "Hollywood Elegies" and were written in Southern California. The sixth, "On the Term of Exile," was written after Brecht left Germany but before he came to America. My versions or imitations try to capture the ideas and mood of the originals, while extrapolating somewhat from Brecht's imagery (though the most obscene images—Dante's shriveled ass, the golden diaphragms—are in the original). I've also recast Brecht's free verse into meter and rhyme, hoping in this way to accentuate what strikes me most about the movement of the poems—its ironic, epigrammatic curtness. —ak

Has anyone here modified a small ring Mauser bolt to cycle and extract .223? I have a couple of small ring actions, one will be used for a 7.62x39 project and the other I would like to build a .223 backup bolt gun.
I saw a guy on another forum silver soldered a piece of steel to the bolt face, but would prefer something a little sturdier.

Celebrating snow
Northern NH ski resorts bolstered by recent snowstorms
By JOHN KOZIOL
Union Leader Correspondent | March 16. 2014 9:18PM

Up the road and east of Cannon, Peter Smith, the director of the Bretton Woods Nordic Center, on Saturday said last week's snowfall improved conditions on the nearly 100 kilometers of trails from good to "excellent."
That said, the trails are now in great shape and the warmer weather is bringing people to Bretton Woods. Unique among other cross-country ski areas, Smith said Bretton Woods has a lift to its upper terrain which might mean that some trails "could be open well into April."
"Last year was a very good year and we're on track to meet or exceed last year so we're very happy with how the season has gone," said Kwasnik.
The gigantic structure — which will gradually melt allowing its waters to flow into the nearby Pemigewasset River — was more than an acre in size and boasted a waterfall, ice slide and a gorge.

As always, home team in CAPS.
Pittsburgh 5 1/2 TENNESSEE
The Steelers are coming off of a nice win, but they will be without some defensive starters. It might not matter. The Titans have been bad, after some projected them as a playoff contender. Not anymore. Even short some defenders I will take the Steelers here.
Steelers 20-10
MIAMI 3 1/2 St. Louis
The Dolphins are slowly becoming a team that nobody really wants to play. They won't make it to the postseason, but they will be pests. The Rams are actually pretty decent, and Jeff Fisher has done a nice job turning that team around. I think the Rams are better right now, plus they had a few extra days off. I can't see the Dolphins winning two in a row. I'll take the Rams.
Rams 24-21
BALTIMORE 3 1/2 Dallas
The Ravens escaped last week, and so did Dallas. The Cowboys, of course, didn't play anybody which explains their result. They will need the extra rest. Tony Romo has struggled this year, so I find it difficult to believe he will do anything against the Ravens. I can't trust him or the Cowboys at anytime. That includes this week.
Ravens 17-12
PHILADELPHIA 5 1/2 Detroit
I am hearing some cries for Andy Reid to bench Michael Vick, but I don't know if it will happen. The Eagles are lucky to be 3-2 the way he has been playing. I have no idea what is going on in Detroit. This team was expected to compete for the NFC North crown and they have really struggled. They are coming off of a bye week, but I have a sense that the Eagles will turn it around this week. Even if it is short lived.
Eagles 27-21
Cincinnati 1 CLEVELAND
Just when everyone starts thinking the Bengals are for real, they lose to Miami. They will be in the "for real" category again after this week. The Browns are not a good team, but they are trying and really have been playing pretty hard. The Bengals should, though, be able to bounce back. I'll take them here.
Bengals 24-16
NEW YORK JETS 3 Indianapolis
The Jets have a lot of problems right now, on both sides of the ball. Their injuries don't help, but that just becomes an excuse at some point. The Colts had a big upset last week, and they actually haven't been too bad. Andrew Luck looks like the real deal.So real, in fact, that I think the Colts are going to win again.
Colts 26-21
ATLANTA 9 Oakland
The Falcons are still undefeated, though I have trouble understanding why Matt Ryan is called "Matty Ice". Beats me. The Raiders were off last week but they are the same old Raiders. Nothing has changed there. I don't see too many problems for the Falcons, who should stay undefeated.
Falcons 30-10
New England 3 1/2 SEATTLE
New England had a nice win last week, and so did the Seahawks. For some reason, and I really don't know why, but I think this is going to be a struggle for the Patriots this week. Just one of those feelings I guess. I like the Patriots to win but somehow I think the Seahawks keep it pretty close.
Patriots 23-20
ARIZONA 4 1/2 Buffalo
The Cardinals finally lost so may be they can relax a little bit. The Bills have totally exploded. They got smoked last week, and this week might not be any better. I don't see a total blow out, because the Cardinals offense isn't that good. But I do see a fairly comfortable Arizona win.
Cardinals 24-14
WASHINGTON 2 1/2 Minnesota
I am not sure how the Redskins are favored here, but they are. It must be the home field. Robert Griffin III suffered a concussion last week, so that doesn't help. The Vikings have been a total surprise. I don't know how long it is going to last, but I am fairly certain it will last at least one more week.
Vikings 26-17
HOUSTON 5 Green Bay
The Texans keep rolling along, but truth be told they really haven't played anybody that good yet. And they likely lost Brian Cushing for an extended period of time. This could be Houston's first major test. The Packers have been disappointing, and they will likely turn it on at some point. I think Houston is very, very good despite their early opponents. I think they will be able to hold off the Packers here. This could be the week that people realize that the Texans are in fact for real.
Texans 29-23
SAN DIEGO 1 Denver
The Chargers, of course, have fallen apart, and the Broncos are pretty decent despite losing last week. Peyton Manning is still a very good quarterback, and Norv Turner for San Diego is still a lousy Head Coach. I think the Chargers skid will continue. I"ll take the Broncos here.
Broncos 26-24
Game of the Week
SAN FRANCISCO 5 New York Giants
This should be a great game as the 49ers looked fantastic last week, as did the Giants after they got off to a slow start. This could be an NFC Championship preview. Right now it is hard to bet against Eli Manning, so I won't. However, I don't think he will be good enough to win. But he will be good enough to keep it close.
49ers 31-27
Stinker of the Week
TAMPA BAY 3 1/2 Kansas City
The Buccaneers are coming off of a bye week, and they needed it. The Chiefs have been dreadful, and shame on some of their fans for booing Matt Cassell's injury. They should be ashamed of themselves. They should be ashamed of this team, because they can't seem to do anything right. I'll take Tampa here.
Buccaneers 20-16
Record For Week Five: 6-8 ( 4-10 without the spread )
Record Through Week Five: 31-43-3 ( 40-37 without the spread )
Game of Week Record: 2-3
Stinker of Week Record: 1-4

tbone looks dope, the idea in itself is great
i know of oneida. im from victor/farmington. even more lesser known lol. well its sunny here today so maybe you will get some good weekend weather
getting vinyls printed.
you whores have any suggestions before i submit it?
(all the small jagged lines, like this inside the letters, wont exist on the actually sticker)
It's really hard to distinguish what the background image is.
I can tell it's a bird with a worm in it's mouth now, but it took me a while.
It's way too vague.
hmmm. i wonder if i put an eye and beak line in it will be better.
besides that, enjoy the "concept"/layout ?
i couldn't tell what it was until i saw bbv's post. and i think the jagged lines look dope.
recognizable now?
ignore the cut off line. thats not part of it.
a little sketch in the letters might show through. it all depends on how fine the lines are i guess.
HAHA, no offense dude, but that looks dumb.
You should just find a better picture.
bird is dumb period. or that bird is dumb?
THAT bird, man.
Pick something with more definition.
hey, what program are you using to convert that bird to one color?
You need to get a better pic of the bird or you need to edit it better.
I like the concept though.
dang that blows man.
so i was just wondering. whats the worst that could happen to you if u got caught puttin slaps up?
How the fuck do you get caught putting slap ups? Haha

Hi everyone, I'm new here. :) I applied to do the September Trinity course at International House (in Bristol) through CactusTEFL at the start of this month and haven't heard anything from them yet. How long does it normally take to get a response, and will they contact you even if you haven't been accepted? (I'm not very confident about my application as I wasn't aware I would even need to do a test, so I can't say I did any revision beforehand..!)
Though it's still a few months down the line obviously I want to have everything sorted out well in advance.

Conservative Media Leap To Demonize NLRB's Changes To Rules On Unionizing
The right-wing media have vilified a proposal by the National Labor Relations Board to change rules regarding union organizing elections, accusing the NLRB of trying to establish "quickie elections." In fact, the proposal would establish no time frame for holding elections, and it modernizes procedures before and after elections.
Right-Wing Media Claim NLRB Is Trying To Establish "Quickie Elections" To Allow Unions To Do "Instant Organizing"
NRO's Kirsanow: "NLRB's Proposed Rules Would Implement 'Quickie Elections." Former NLRB member Peter Kirsanow wrote in a post on the National Review Online blog The Corner:
In a nutshell, the NLRB's proposed rules would implement "quickie elections," a process that would allow unions to organize a workplace as easily as they could have had the Employee Free Choice Act (also known as "card check") passed.
Yet the "quickie election" rules proposed by the NLRB will shorten the time frame to a mere 10-20 days. Make absolutely no mistake: That's not enough time for even the largest and most sophisticated employers to counter what the union has been telling employees while organizing them for the last 6-8 months. The union win rate will far exceed 68 percent. [National Review Online, The Corner, 6/21/11 [1]]
Fox Guest Hanretty: "This Would Absolutely Allow Unions To Do Instant Organizing." On Happening Now, former National Republican Congressional Committee communications director Karen Hanretty said:
HANRETTY: You know, this would absolutely allow unions to do instant organizing. So, in other words, they could take months of preparation to organize and hold a vote without the employer even knowing, without the employer even having the opportunity to wage their own campaign. [Fox News, Happening Now, 6/22/11 [2]]
WSJ Editorial: NLRB "Delivered A Plan For 'Quickie' Union Elections Designed To Make Organizing Easier." From a Wall Street Journal editorial headlined "The Union 'Quickie' ":
When Big Labor failed to persuade even a Democratic Congress to pass "card check" legislation, it turned to Plan B: the National Labor Relations Board, which yesterday delivered a plan for "quickie" union elections designed to make organizing easier. [The Wall Street Journal, 6/22/11 [3]]
Heritage Foundation Analyst At NRO: "The NLRB's Proposed Snap Elections" Are "Another Case Of The Obama Administration Putting Unions Ahead Of Workers." In a post on The Corner, Heritage Foundation Senior Policy Analyst James Sherk wrote:
The NLRB's proposed snap elections, which Peter Kirsanow described here yesterday, are another case of the Obama administration putting unions ahead of workers. Unionization has plummeted in the private sector because very few workers want to join. Unions want to reverse that trend by denying employees an informed choice. [National Review Online, 6/22/11 [4]]
In Fact, Proposal Would Establish No Time Frame For Elections
CAP's Madland: Rule Doesn't Specify Time Frame, Addresses "Roadblocks That Commonly Are Thrown Up When The NLRB Attempts To Set Up An Election." David Madland, director of the Center for American Progress' American Worker Project, wrote:
The proposed rule announced today by the National Labor Relations Board to create a standard process for union elections is an important step toward giving workers a fairer way to choose whether to form a union. The rule would reform an election process that far too often resembles Lucy pulling the football away from Charlie Brown's foot just as he begins his kick, with scheduled elections frequently delayed or canceled and workers left flat on their backs.
This common sense proposal would standardize an inconsistent election process. The NLRB is correct when it says the proposed rule would "reduce unnecessary litigation, streamline pre- and post-election procedures, and facilitate the use of electronic communications and document filing." The proposed rule does not specify a specific time frame for elections, but rather recommends a number of changes that would help put an end to delay tactics used by employers or unions, creating a more level playing field, ensuring stability and fairness for all parties, and reducing confrontation in the workplace.
The proposed rule would address the roadblocks that commonly are thrown up when the NLRB attempts to set up an election. There is currently no limit on employers' or unions' ability to demand a pre-election hearing on most any issue, including the eligibility of employees to vote, or the scope of the bargaining unit, which can be used to delay an election. Many of these issues could be resolved after voting, and others are manufactured for purposes of delay and don't need to be resolved at all, ever. As former NLRB General Counsel Fred Feinstein explains, "The problem has been that a party in any election case has the ability to undermine the expression of employee free choice by manipulating Board procedures to create delay." [AmericanProgress.org, 6/21/11 [5]]
NLRB: New Rules Would Eliminate A Review Process That "Almost Never Result In A Stay Of The Election." From the NLRB's "fact sheet" on the proposed changes:
Current procedures:
Elections routinely are delayed 25-30 days to allow parties to seek Board review of Regional Director rulings even though such requests are rarely filed, even more rarely granted, and almost never result in a stay of the election.
Proposed procedures:
The pre-election request for review would be eliminated, along with the unnecessary delay. [NLRB.gov, accessed 6/22/11 [6]]
NLRB: Current Rules Encourage "Pre-Election Litigation" Over Issues That "Ultimately May Not Need To Be Resolved." From the NLRB fact sheet:
Current procedures:
Encourages pre-election litigation over voter-eligibility issues that need not be resolved in order to determine if an election is necessary and that may not affect the outcome of the election and thus ultimately may not need to be resolved.
Proposed procedures:
The parties could choose not to raise such issues at the pre-election hearing but rather via the challenge procedure during the election. Litigation of eligibility issues raised by the parties involving less than 20 per cent of the bargaining unit would be deferred until after the election. [NLRB.gov, accessed 6/22/11 [6]]
NLRB: New Rules Would Require Parties To State Their Positions At Outset Of Hearings. From the NLRB fact sheet:
Current procedures:
In contrast to federal court rules, the board's current procedures have no mechanism for quickly identifying what issues are in dispute to avoid wasteful litigation and encourage agreements.
Proposed procedures:
The parties would be required to state their positions no later than the start of the hearing, before any other evidence is accepted. The proposed amendments would ensure that hearings are limited to issues resolving genuine disputes. [NLRB.gov, accessed 6/22/11 [6]]
Right-Wing Media Say Unions Already Win Nearly Two-Thirds Of Elections ...
Wash. Examiner: "Apparently, The Big Labor Bosses Aren't Satisfied With Winning More Than 60 Percent Of Workplace Representation Elections In Recent Years." From a Washington Examiner editorial:
The new workplace representation election rules are needed to "remove unnecessary barriers to the fair and expeditious resolution of questions concerning representation," according to the NLRB. Unions want the NLRB to severely limit or kill management's ability to oppose unionization before representation elections and to expose abusive campaign practices by union thugs after workers vote. Apparently, the Big Labor bosses aren't satisfied with winning more than 60 percent of workplace representation elections in recent years. [The Washington Examiner, 6/22/11 [7]]
NRO's Kirsanow: In Recent Years, Unions Have Won "Approximately 68 Percent Of Elections." Kirsanow wrote in a post on The Corner:
Indeed, in 2009 and 2010 unions won approximately 68 percent of elections (this does not include the number of petitions withdrawn by unions). [National Review Online, The Corner, 6/21/11 [1]]
... But More Than One-Third Of Successful Union Petition Drives Never Even Reach An Election
Labor Journal Article: 35 Percent Of Union Drives Never Reach An Election. Writing in Industrial & Labor Relations Review, MIT doctoral candidate John-Paul Ferguson found that between 1999 and 2004, about 35 percent of cases in which an election petition was filed -- meaning organizers collected enough signatures to trigger the election process -- did not result in an election ultimately being held. From a chart published with his article:
[Industrial & Labor Relations Review, Vol. 62, No. 1, article 1 [8]]
Big Government Grossly Misrepresents NLRB's Proposal
Big Government: Rule Changes Include "Electronic Voting," Removal Of Secret Ballot, And "Giving Digital Readouts Of The Home Addresses And Contact Information" Of Employees. From a June 21 post on BigGovernment.com:
The rule changes would include: electronic voting, which may open up fraud, as well as coercion and intimidation of voters who no longer have the protection of private ballots; rushed elections so employees don't have time to inform themselves about having to pay union dues, live and work by union rules, and support a vast leftwing political machine; the inability for employers to challenge the validity of voting employees until it's too late; and giving digital readouts of the home address and contact information for all the employees the union is targeting. [BigGovernment.com, 6/22/11 [9]]
NLRB: Proposal Allows Petitions, Notices, And Voter Lists To Be Transmitted Electronically -- Says Nothing About Electronic Voting Or Secret Ballots. From the NLRB fact sheet:
Current procedures:
Parties or the Board cannot electronically file or transmit important representation case documents, including election petitions.
Proposed procedures:
Election petitions, election notices, and voter lists could be transmitted electronically. NLRB regional offices could deliver notices and documents electronically rather than by mail, and could directly notify employees by email, when addresses are available. [NLRB.gov, accessed 6/22/11 [6]]
NLRB: Proposal Changes "The Procedures [NLRB] Follows Prior And Subsequent To Conducting A Secret Ballot Election," Not The Election Itself. From the NLRB fact sheet:
On June 21, 2011, the National Labor Relations Board, Member Hayes dissenting, proposed reforms of the procedures it follows prior and subsequent to conducting a secret ballot election to determine if employees wish to be represented for purposes of collective bargaining. The proposed amendments are intended to reduce unnecessary litigation, streamline pre- and post-election procedures, and facilitate the use of electronic communications and document filing. [NLRB.gov, accessed 6/22/11 [6]]
NLRB: Current Rules Require Employers To Provide Names And Home Addresses Of Employees -- Proposal Adds Phone And Email Contact Information. From the NLRB fact sheet:
Current procedures:
The final voter list available to all parties contains only names and home addresses, which does not permit all parties to utilize modern technology to communicate with voters.
Proposed procedures:
Phone numbers and email addresses (when available) would be included on the final voter list. [NLRB.gov, accessed 6/22/11 [6]]

One thing that always bugged me about the prequel clones were the elbow armor. It just never seemed right to me. I know that it should make sense to protect your elbows, but....it just doesn't do it for me.
So I'm thinking next time I build a clone, it will be elbow less.
Maybe an evolution to a stormtrooper. :D
here is a photoshop interpretation.

If you want to get on the call list just let us know on your next visit, and I'll call you with earliest available spot. The class August 6th is the CQB 2 class, so 1 would be a prerequisite anyway.

Will JD recieve a call from new Philly exec Larry Brown to work out a deal?? Or is LB`s special project centered on; how to coach the 76ers again without anyone even noticing what happened?

WTT: Feeler thread - 97 TJ 5.2L V8
I just picked this Jeep up a few weeks back, but I'm considering looking for a milder jeep that is more girlfriend-friendly.

Pics: http://picasaweb.google.com/greenbrian/Jeep
I drove the TJ from VA to IL with no problems, engine runs like a top. Mileage was better/comparable to any TJ on the highway, with gobs more power.
What I'm looking for: Any year TJ with I6, D44 rear, stock/mild mods + cash. I'd consider even trades, depending on the vehicle.
I'm not desperate to get rid of the jeep, it was done up well. Nick Scribner built it, you can search JU and other forums for details on it. I have/had plans to make it a bit easier to drive for my gf, but with so much going on, getting a milder jeep crossed my mind.
Anyhoo, pm me with any interest.

Thanks for the responses guys.
My gf isn't forcing the sale. I want to be able to throw her the keys and not worry about her being able to drive it. Especially on weekend trips and whatnot.
The V8's torque + 4.88 gears + 5 speed + tall jeep... you get the picture. I'm thinking more along the lines of a TJ with 33's, and automatic (AW4 swap maybe?). Ideal trade - 00-01 stock TJ with D44 rear, maybe slight mods. Obviously others considered :)
I got the jeep for ~$10k, to give you an idea of price range. If I keep it, I'm going to lower 1-2", and put an automatic in it - maybe even a rope ladder for her

Cracking me up over here. Gf said I can't post pics
she didn't say anything about videos though
Yea 84, I do have tentative plans if I keep it, I just don't have a whole lot of time to devote to it, nor do I want to spend loads more coin on it (yea I know, it's a Jeep). I've had my share of project vehicles, and my dad has reserved some of my time for helping out with his new hot rod project. I don't want to have to reserve my next 10 Saturdays for sorting out jeep stuff. Rather spend a few of those wheelin' or whatever.
Yogi, I'd probably sell it for a touch over $10k.

Arsène Wenger always knew Yaya Toure would develop into a top-class player - even though he was decidedly average on his solitary Arsenal appearance.
The younger brother of former Gunner Kolo impressed during a trial with the Club in 2003 and was close to signing before growing impatient while he waited for a work permit.
Toure opted for a move to Metalurh Donetsk in Ukraine and went on to win the Champions League with Barcelona before being reunited with Kolo at Manchester City.
The brothers could both face Arsenal at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday and ahead of the match Wenger reflected on Yaya's brief spell in north London - including that pre-season appearance at Barnet.
"I have known him since he was 15," said the Frenchman. "We had an agreement with him to come here but the problem was that he was at Beveren and we had to wait long enough for a European passport. Therefore he was impatient and went, at the time, to Metalurh Donetsk.
"It was quite interesting because his generation played for two or three years at Beveren - Yaya Toure, Eboue, Gervinho for example played there as well. They didn't have one offer for all of these players and they played in the Belgian championship in the top league.
"All of the players have made big careers, for example, [Siaka] Tiene plays left-back for Paris Saint-Germain. But in two years there was not one offer for one player, basically because they were young and it is always difficult to make these kinds of decisions.
"At the time Yaya went to Metlurh Dontesk and now he is a top-class player. We knew that at the time he would be a top-class player but the only problem with Yaya was to fix him into a position because he can play everywhere.
"He can play centre-back, as a second striker, as a midfielder and for a long time we didn't know where to play him. Incidentally he played in a pre-season game at Barnet [on July 19, 2003] as a second striker - and he was completely average on the day!"Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

|If it has a vortec 350, rebuild it. Factory roller cam, Vortec heads, you can`t go wrong.
sbc 350, What would be best for short block build?
Hello guys I got a 96 s10 with a 350 vortec in it last week and I am going to take it out next spring and get a new 350 put in. What I am wanting is something that I can get decent fuel mileage about 18-19mpg and not break the bank and make around 300 to 325 hp. Heads I don't know yet but the short block I am trying to decide what would be the best build. The first one is a GM L31 short block 350 4bolt main 1 piece rear main seal and a cast nodular iron crank.
It has powder metal connecting rods, with cast alumminum pistons. That goes for around $1,200 to $1,500 depending on the site I would get it from. Has anyone gotten one of them and how good are they wise up to say 6000 rpm? The other route I was thinking of doing even though it would cost more is get a new gm block 1 piece for a roller setup and a Scat Cast steel crank, Scat 4340 connecing rods with capscrew bolts and Speed Pro Hypereutectic pistons. Then I would top it off with either an edelbrock performer intake or one of the new weiand street warrior intakes.
Cam I don't know yet but I want it to give me a nice lopey idle but still be nice running and work on a 2000 stall converter. Any suggestions on cam choice and short block would help. Also I just want to get stock type replacement heads but don't want to use the vortec's just something similar but aftermarket.
Thanks Eric

Shrimp Pasta Salad with Cucumber and Dill
Forget deli-style pasta salad, and try this version with shrimp and a bright lemon dressing. You can even make it up to a day ahead.
- Prep:
- Total Time:
- Servings: 4
Source: Everyday Food, March 2009
- Coarse salt and ground pepper
- 3/4 pound large shell pasta
- 1 pound large peeled and deveined shrimp, tails on (if desired)
- 1 English cucumber, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup roughly chopped dill
- 2 tablespoons light mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta until al dente. Add shrimp, and cook just until opaque throughout, about 30 seconds. Drain, and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking. Drain again.
Transfer pasta mixture to a bowl; toss with cucumber and dill. In another bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, oil, lemon juice, and Dijon; season with salt and pepper.
Add dressing to pasta mixture, and toss to combine.

Over the past two hundred years the people of Canada and the United States have lived in peace and been allies in several wars that were fought overseas. Each year millions of people peacefully cross one border or the other to shop, visit friends or go on vacation. There has not been the slightest evidence of any form of terrorism in the border region but the forces of hysteria are alive in Washington D.C. There is a 3,000 mile border which can fairly easily be crossed by anyone with the determination and a few dollars to spend, but Washington D.C. bureaucrats believe making people produce passports somehow will end the non-existent threat. Of course, about 70% of Americans do not have passports which means thousands, if not millions of people, who might ordinarily hop across the border will cease doing so.
When will the madness of "terrorism" pass and common sense return? There is absolutely no reason to require passports on the American-Canadian border. What ever happened to the Obama promise the days of Bush madness will end? I guess we now have Obama madness.

That's a good question LOL. When I went to login, it told me I had no account, so I made a new one figuring it was on a different site (I've checked out a couple dog sites) that I had "Mocha Joe". Now I realize (since you've pointed out) that I must have just used the wrong password or email. I wonder if there is a way to delete an account? I've been using this one ever since.
And that also leads to why I haven't been responding ! I really don't care to win much either, and if what you say is true about the general public then if his body structure checks out then I'll just go for it! I think it would be a good experience for the both of us. The training it will take would really help our bond, and let's face it he LOVES having a job to do !
I've been looking for local clubs around here, and the closest I have found is two hours away However, if I make it a weekly thing and make the trip Sat-Sun each week I think it is manageable. That way I could get some hands on learning with some people there. Hopefully they can give me a real feel for things (instead of just reading). However, this forum still has been incredibly insightful.

Sable is an allowed color under all standards, SV, AKC, whatever. It is not a disqualification or fault. And it is actually genetically the most dominant color so will be the one most represented unless specifically selected away from (as it has been in Euro show lines, but not due to any reason based on the standard).
Whether his structure would do well in either show venue, AKC or SV, is another matter. But color alone wouldn't preclude showing him.
|N Smith
I will be showing my working line male this June - he is Solid Black, with a nice working line structure.
I really don't care if he wins. But last year I was appalled to see what was passing as a Shepherd in the ring at my local show. Not only was their overexaggerated angles, but the most fearful Shepherds I have ever seen. Had to be forced to be examined, trying to hide behind the handlers from the Judges. When they were out of the ring, they all cowered in their crates.
My reason for showing my dog this year is just to show what a true working dog should LOOK and ACT like. I am certain he will be passed over, but everyone standing outside of the ring will be able to see the difference in temperament alone.
|For AKC, while he's not an automatic no, he's realistically a probably not gonna do well. Personally, if showing appeals to you apart from winning, get him out there b/c he'll most likely be a winner with the general public even if the judges reject him. In my experience the public at large often finds showlines to be the least attractive GSD & welcome exposure to the other types.
|Do spend some time. The standards are not at issue but how people interpret them and what they desire for that purpose. A lot of us would prefer the actual working line structure over the showline.

Look up some videos of AKC shows, the GSDCA nationals, the breed competition at Westminster and you'll quickly notice the differences between your dog and the top competitors in the world of AKC.
I believe your dog has fantastic structure for life and work. Probably has some fantastic drive for obedience/bite work. But, the AKC conformation ring is a different animal.
It's not an automatic no, they'll let you show, but the likelihood of success is very little. I know someone that has a V rated sable working dog (German system), and was in an all breed show all by herself and was still given a 2nd place ribbon in order to keep her out of the group competition and not give her a win.

Re: theraphosidae ver 2
We've had our Chilean Rose Hair for ten years. She must be getting on in years, as she was an adult when we bought her. She had to have been wild-caught when she was sold to the pet store, as she laid eggs a few weeks after we brought her home, resulting in 300 babies. I gave a few of them away to colleagues, and then located some breeders and collectors in central California who were happy to have fresh breeding stock.

Re: Experimental Fail
I really enjoy this shirt! From the girl who was doing bacterial population studies on milk in the fourth grade.
And honestly, there is plenty of animal experiments in everyday science. I'm a cancer researcher, we work in mice. I've worked with fish, with bees. Animals die in the name of science, it's ugly but it happens. And a cute little kid trying to bring his favorite characters to life is cute, it's a sweet concept that many can relate to. I hope this prints. The people in my lab will enjoy it as much as I do.

Re: C6 H12 O6 - not all marshmallows like being sugar
This is really cute, but hard to see at first glance. Maybe if you moved the C3 further down to give it that classic hexagonal shape?
Glad to see you have a design doing so well over here. i always like your style (though the shading on the rat seems to be a tad different this round- but still looks good and has the same overall cleanness feel). I wish this design the best! It a brilliant take on this week's theme.
As usual, great job!

Very relatable topic, without skirting the "animal cruelty" line that others have this derby. I think you deserve more than a few props for this design.
You've got my vote, and I'll be rooting for you! -:]

Re: The color of light
Haha, is that a particular kind of plant? And would you include that particular kind of plant in a middle school science fair greenhouse experiment? That's the way I first read it, anyway. :P
I would say, for aesthetics, get rid of the frog on the bottom left and move the two that are in different positions over so that they are centered under the other six. right now the design is pulling to the right a little too much and it might look off on a torso. just my $0.02
ochopika wrote:Its late and I made this. It is weird. Any feedback would be great!
I like the idea, but if Im following the image from upper left to bottom right the frog is flayed open, then its organs are being removed, then it is sitting, then hopping away... without his insides! unless of course that was intended, GL

Re: Science Class
This is really nice- I'd definitely wear it
...and your Tshirt mock-up is out of wack, The design is too big for the ratio on the shirt (that little square on the template). Personally, I think the brown shirt kills it (yes, in a bad way). Grass or Kelly Green would be happier, less drab.
That's strictly from my eyes, my brain is trying to follow the design. I get that disected frogs are science, but I don't understand the progression of images?
I would not wear this anywhere, well, maybe to a Middle-school Science fair, but that's it.
I'll leave you on a positive note, the artwork is great.

Re: Edison Plays Dirty
Not only were Thomas Edison and Nikola Tesla always rivals, but they also were born with white hair and a mu-stash respectively. This story telling of their grade school science fair projects is foreshadowing of their future conflicts. Though less brilliant, Edison knows how to get the job done. Sometimes simplicity wins... in this case, its just down right cheating.
Let me know what you guys think. I always welcome critique. I hate it that I had to turn this one in late. I really like the History behind these two.

I thought you were a better artist than that and I still don't see the relevance to a science fair.
No go ESPECIALLY when you're designing for a MIDDLE SCHOOL science fair!
Rethink your promo and pull this entry....please.
Lol! I think you're just messing with me, but just in case... "Sky in a Jar" is a really common middle school science project. It's one that you often see at a science fair. See links up above.
And wait. I have a promo? That's neat. I hope it's action packed with lots of explosions and some slow motion running. ;)
Steamboy is the new "Akira." Steampunk is so hot right now, that this should do well just from the subject (much less the really cool robots).
It's a "clever-clever" concept well executed. As my wife would say, "Sexy-Chocolate!"
Very nice. I actually thought this was cmdixon(?)'s design from the thumbnail.
goldenthorn wrote:Oh, hey there! It seems like you may have missed seeing the derby description and rules?
Here. Here they are for you.
In case you don't know, the derby description and rules are posted every Thursday in the main world of woot shirts forum. Therein you'll find the description and the rules for the contents and composition of your entry.
I'm just looking for a bit of advice on this rejection. How is this off-topic? I can easily see a kid showing off the words he figured out how to "write" with a calculator. This is real-world realistic, and is age-appropriate, meaning this really is something kids in middle school can/would do.
As for color, I'm totally confused on this issue. Your entry form says that brown equates to Pantone 7519, which is what I used for my entry. However, I totally agree that it does not match up with the color swatch provided in the blank shirt template. When I do the eyedropper to the brown swatch, it comes up as Black 2C (which looks like the brown in the swatch). Is is possible that the pantone # found on the entry page is incorrect? (I am referring to the "What's this?" link found next to the design detail entry.)
Thank you for your input and guidance.

when creating a design for the contest I as other artists want to create something that has a broader appeal. something they can relate to. The idea for mine is well known so a lot people can relate to it. Is that a bad thing? no. I can understand if you don't like the mentos and diet coke science project but a middle schooler would do such a project. Just trying to find more accessable ideas for the contest. Other stuff I have done in the past have been passed over because it didn't have a wide appeal. But I don't think its wrong for an artist looking for a broader audience.
as to the hate, re-read your first comment with fresh eyes, and be honest, it comes across full of venom.
