This product is Amazing !! I sprinkled about 1/3 of the pail into the leak area and within 12 hours it had expanded and sucked into the holes through all the gravel ! It is actually down to the smallest trickle now and we just had a huge rainstorm that brought the pond up over a foot. Now if... View more

Last July we excavated an ornamental pond 13 metres x 8 metres approx 1 metre deep on our property on the Mornington Peninsula. The pond was dug into clay. Unfortunately heavy rains filled the hole before we could line it. The pond has consistently lost about 30mm of water daily and last summer... View more

It has now been a 2 months since I had the dam scraped out to get rid of all the weed etc. As it filled I sprinkled in your product and for the first time in 17 years it is holding water.
Pat Cygnet, TAS
It's been almost 2 months since I treated our pond with your product. We have had about 6 inches of rain since and the pond looks great. The wetness below the dam is gone and the water level is holding. Bottom line is I am very impressed with your product.
Bill Hille Kansas, USA
The 10 kg tub I purchased for my small dam worked a treat. Within 6 days of applying the polymer my dam shows no signs of leaking, where prior to using your product the land downhill was soggy and unusable and the dam was losing some 100-150 mm per day. Wonderful product so glad I found you online.
Darren Woolgoolga, NSW

Welcome to Colombia Crest Gold Corp.
Colombia Crest Gold Corp. (TSXV: CLB; US: ECRTF; Frankfurt: EAT) is focused on systematically exploring, developing and monetizing promising new gold projects in Colombia, specifically the Fredonia and Venecia project areas. The two properties are located 40 km south of the city of Medellín, within the Middle Cauca Belt - the most prolific gold belt in Colombia with over 500 years of gold-mining history. Over the past four years 48+ million ounces of gold have been discovered in the Middle Cauca Belt, making it one of the fastest growing gold belts in the world.
In Colombia, the 6,500 metre Phase 1 drill program has been completed at the two contiguous gold properties: Fredonia and Venecia. Drilling focused on the highest priority drill targets named Arabia 1 and 2 where mineralized outcrop displayed strong indications of a porphyry gold system. Surface results from the Arabia 1 and 2 targets included up to 3.8 grams per tonne gold in rock chip samples and 0.4 grams per tonne gold in soil samples. The Phase 1 drill program successfully intercepted a porphyry gold system and returned typical grades in several sectors; hitting economic gold grades of ˃0.5 g/t gold; including 182 metres of 0.38 g/t Au in drill hole AR12-4. Additional follow up drilling planned in 2013.
Targeted exploration of over 20 identified potential gold systems continues across the 30,973 hectare land package. Specifically targeted in 2013 are the Garrucha and El Retiro areas. Porphyry-style gold systems host very large, bulk tonnage deposits that range from 2 to over 20 million ounces of gold and typically grade from 0.5 to 2.
The Company employs a team of seasoned geologists, each with 20+ years of experience exploring and discovering this type of porphyry deposit around the world, including Argentina, Peru, Ecuador, Mexico, Alaska, Indonesia, and Eastern Europe.

Major League Lacrosse Announces Weekly Award Winners for Week 4
Matt Brown and DJ Driscoll Take Home the Honors This Week
Major League Lacrosse (MLL), the premier professional outdoor lacrosse league, has announced its weekly award winners following this past weekend's action. Matt Brown of the Denver Outlaws was named the Offensive Player of the Week and DJ Driscoll of the Chicago Machine was named the Defensive Player of the Week for their performances.
Brown was honored after his strong play in a 15-10 Denver win over the Long Island Lizards. Brown was perfect shooting the ball against Long Island, netting five goals on just five shots. The attackman has always been known for his accuracy, last season he led all full season starters with a .511 shooting percentage. He's keeping up with his reputation as a sharpshooter with a .500 shooting percentage this year, tallying 10 goals on 20 shots.
Brown also picked up an assist for a total of six points on the day. One of his goals was on the extra man advantage. Brown sits at 11 points on the year after his effort last weekend.
The Outlaws selected Brown with the No. 43 overall pick in the 2005 MLL Supplemental Draft. Brown is a graduate of the University of Denver and was First Team All-GWLL in his senior season. He is also fourth all time on Denver's career goals scored list with 113.
Driscoll earned the defensive honors this week after doing a little bit of everything aside from his usual longstick role. Driscoll picked up two assists in a dramatic come from behind win over the Toronto Nationals on Saturday. The two points were Driscoll's first of the season. He remains a vacuum in the opening field, having scooped up 14 groundballs through four games this season. Chicago scored a buzzer beating two-point goal for the unlikely win, dropping Toronto to 0-4 on the season. Driscoll has the Machine rolling towards the playoffs with a record of 3-1 and tied for first place.
The 6'4" longpole is in his fourth year in the league after playing his college ball at Notre Dame. Driscoll has been all over the field during his four years, having scooped up 161 ground balls in that time.

[off topic] Perl v. Python: Python Sucks!
Results of my non-scientific research: "Python sucks". Or rather Python performance does suck big time. Or rather lack of performance.
Simple test.
$ cat a.py
print "Hello world!"
$ time python a.py
Hello world!
real 0m0.039s
user 0m0.032s
sys 0m0.008s
Compare to this:
$ cat a.pl
print "Hello World!\n";
$ time perl a.pl
Hello World!
real 0m0.008s
user 0m0.004s
sys 0m0.004s
or this:
$ cat a.c
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
printf("Hello World!\n");
return 0;
$ make a && time ./a
gcc a.c -o a
Hello World!
real 0m0.003s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.000s
I mean, what Python does those 40ms? Compared to Perl's 4ms? Or C's ZILCHms?
Absolute values seem to be small enough to be disregarded. But the same cliche can be seen in bigger applications.
For example Gentoo's tool chain - emerge - many Gentoo users are familiar with. Its DARN slow. Even compared to Debian system - apt-get - which does so much more and often labeled by jealous RedHat folks "amateurish" - works magnitudes faster (and even on junk hardware).
Or SCons. SCons take 1.5 seconds to just start up and print help message. It's Perl's sibling cons/pcons in the time manages to compile several sources.

City of Lincoln
Mayor's Office
2006 Media Releases
Officers in the Lincoln Police Union today announced their support for Mayor Coleen J. Seng's proposal to prohibit the carrying of concealed weapons within Lincoln's city limits. The Mayor introduced the local ban on concealed weapons June 26. The City Council has scheduled a public hearing on the ordinance for its July 31st meeting, which begins at 5:30 p.m.
Last spring, the State Legislature passed and the Governor signed into law a bill that will allow people to carry concealed weapons in Nebraska beginning January 1, 2007. A separate existing State law gives cities, including Lincoln, the power to prohibit the carrying of concealed weapons. Omaha already has an existing ban on carrying concealed weapons.
"I support the constitutional right of citizens to own weapons, but we must listen to those on the front lines -- the law enforcement professionals who risk their lives to keep our community safe," said Mayor Seng. "Local officers overwhelmingly agree that more guns will not make Lincoln safer and will actually increase risks to both citizens and police officers."
Lincoln Police Sergeant Jim Davidsaver researched the issue of concealed weapons as part of his course work to earn a master's degree at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln. Five years ago, he surveyed all Lincoln Police Officers on the topic, and 173 responded. Nearly 85 percent disagreed with the statement that Lincoln citizens should be allowed to obtain permits to carry concealed firearms. More than 88 percent disagreed with the statement that allowing citizens to lawfully carry concealed firearms would deter crime in Lincoln. In focus group discussions, experienced officers said allowing concealed weapons may result in criminals arming themselves when they otherwise would not. Sgt. Davidsaver's conclusion was that the potential costs of concealed weapons outweigh the potential benefits, and the State law is adequate.
Police Chief Tom Casady said he supports his officers and agrees that a law allowing concealed weapons is not needed in Lincoln. "If a person's occupation or actions justify the need for a concealed weapon, current State law already provides for an affirmative defense against criminal charges," he said. "If concealed carry is such a great idea, you have to wonder why our State Senators excluded concealed handguns from athletic events, financial institutions, political fund-raisers and their own chambers."
Under the new State law, Nebraskans will be able to obtain a permit for a fee of $100 after they complete firearms training and are cleared by a background check. But the Mayor and Casady say the new State law has many loopholes, such as allowing individuals to obtain permits even if they have been convicted of serious misdemeanors, including stalking, violating a protection order, impersonating a peace officer and indecent exposure.
"Rolling back an odometer is a felony, but violating a protection order is not," said Casady. "This is just one example of the gaping loopholes in the State law I can't support something that results in this kind of bizarre and dangerous outcome."
Casady said other states have experienced problems with allowing concealed weapons:
Casady said citizens don't hear more about such problems because many State concealed weapons laws, including Nebraska's, do not allow law enforcement to reveal the fact that an offender has a concealed weapons permit. And he said there is no solid evidence that allowing concealed weapons has an impact on crime rates.
"Violent crime in Nebraska fell 35 percent from 1999 to 2004 without allowing concealed weapons," said Casady. "Crime has dropped almost everywhere in the nation since the early 1990s. If concealed weapon advocates want to take credit for falling crime rates, how are these proponents explaining the increase in violent crime in the U.S. last year?"

These three events have your name on them this weekend.
These three events have your name on them this weekend.
'The Drowsy Chaperone' drives to Patchwork Playhouse
WHEN 8 p.m., Friday; 8 p.m., Saturday
WHERE Patchwork Playhouse, 140 Roosevelt Ave., Dover
INFO kctg.org or call 674-3568
It's not often you see a musical where the narrator admits the script is trite and the characters are cardboard.
This is a key reason why Kent County Theatre Guild's musical "The Drowsy Chaperone" is so hilarious.
The musical debuts Friday at the Patchwork Playhouse in Dover. The show is led by stage director Chris Polo with musical direction from Eddie Cohee.
"The Drowsy Chaperone" revolves around a silly storyline where the narrator, named Man in Chair, plays a recording of his favorite musical comedy, "The Drowsy Chaperone," a vaudeville musical set in the 1920s on the wedding day of Broadway starlet Janet Van De Graaff and her wealthy fiancé, Robert Martin. After getting hitched, Van De Graaff plans to ditch her career, which means she'll no longer star in the show "Follies." It also means the show might not be a success without her. And that wouldn't please a gangster boss who's been investing his dough into the show. So you know what that means? The wedding must be sabotaged.
In come whacky characters like the Drowsy Chaperone (Van De Graaff's alcoholic chaperone who's also a Broadway actress in the twilight years of her career), Aldolpho (the self-proclaimed lover from Europe who's hired to seduce Van De Graaff), Gangster #1 and Gangster #2 (henchmen disguised as pastry chefs who work for the gangster boss) and many others who get entangled into the boss' plan.
Doc Hollywood on the case at Fire & Ice
WHAT Doc Hollywood in concert
WHEN 9:30 p.m., Friday
WHERE Fire & Ice at Dover Downs Hotel & Casino, 1131 North Dupont Highway, Dover
INFO doverdowns.com or call 674-4600
Doc Hollywood is a bouncy party/rock outfit and namesake of the 1991 romantic comedy starring Michael J. Fox.
The film is about a young doctor who causes a traffic accident in a small town and is sentenced to temporarily work at the town hospital.
Doc Hollywood (the band, not the movie) will operate at the Fire & Ice Lounge in Dover Downs Hotel & Casino tonight.
Beloved for its crazy antics and diverse song selection, the outfit, based in Philadelphia, Pa., has a catalog that includes: Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance," "Def Leppard's "Pour Some Sugar on Me," Bruno Mars' "Locked Out of Heaven," Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'," Bon Jovi's "Livin' On a Prayer" and Rihanna's "We Found Love."
This time, 'Results May Vary'
WHAT Results May Vary in concert
WHEN 8:30 p.m., Saturday
WHERE The Green Stinger Sports Bar and Grill, 492 Walnut Shade Road, Dover
INFO Facebook or call 698-3300
Frontman Gary Kemp and his bandmates took a page out of the Riddler's handbook when they chose a question mark as their logo.
The symbol represents the mystery behind the next song that Kemp's Dover-based rock band, Results May Vary, will tackle in concert, since the group has a mixed repertoire that features originals and covers from more than 30 bands including Bullet For My Valentine, Green Day and Drowning Pool. In addition, the guys do a mean cover of the Temptations' "My Girl," in which Kemp also performs the song's classic dance number.
You can catch Results May Vary at The Green Stinger Sports Bar and Grill on Saturday.

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia's parliament passed a bill on Friday imposing prison terms of up to six years on Russians who take part in conflicts abroad, as the government tries to head off potential security threats ahead of the Winter Olympic Games in Sochi.
Militants waging an Islamist insurgency in southern Russia's North Caucasus region sympathize with the international jihadists trying to overthrow Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
National security officials estimate that up to 400 people have left Russian territory to fight in Syria and analysts warn they pose a serious threat when they return.
President Vladimir Putin submitted the amendments to the existing anti-terrorism law in September.
Under the amended law, relatives of those committing acts of terrorism will be held financially liable for the damage. It also sets prison terms of up to 20 years for setting up a terrorist organization and up to ten years for being part of it.
The bill was rushed through the State Duma in the second and third reading on Friday, days after a deadly bus bombing killed six people in southern Russia and months ahead of the Games in the Black Sea resort seen as the Kremlin's showcase project.
Sochi is a few hundred kilometers (miles) from the volatile and mountainous North Caucasus, where there is almost daily violence.
Alexey Malashenko, a religion expert at the Carnegie Moscow Centre think tank, said the Russian nationals fighting in Syria could pose a real threat to the Games.
"They will come back trained in warfare...," Malashenko said. "You don't need a lot of people, five to ten people, and there won't be any Olympics."
Russia is a staunch supporter of Assad and says the rebels fighting to topple him are not freedom fighters but terrorists linked to al Qaeda.
Putin has long taken a tough stance against the North Caucausus rebellion after two wars between the Russian army and Chechen separatists. In the second of those wars, from 1999 to 2000, he burnished his reputation as an uncompromising leader.
He has promised tight security at the Games to be held next February. Russia is spending more than $50 billion on the event and Putin sees it as a chance to show the world what his nation can achieve.

Taylor Lautner Hated His 'Twilight' Wig
Taylor Lautner heads out for a bite to eat at Toscana on Thursday afternoon (December 6) in Brentwood, Calif.
The 20-year-old actor, who wore AG Adriano Goldschmied jeans, was all smiles as arrived for a business meeting.
PHOTOS: Check out the latest pics of Taylor Lautner
Taylor recently chatted with MTV about not liking one of his co-stars very much — the wig!
"The wig, it was a very important co-star. Right now I'm not missing much," Taylor dished. "There was hatred between both of us. It did not like me, I did not like it. Not fond memories."

Welcome to Day 27 of my "A Month of PowerShell" series. This series will use the series landing page on this blog at http://blog.waynesheffield.com/wayne/a-month-of-powershell/. Please refer to this page to see all of the posts in this series, and to quickly go to them.
One of the tasks that we are frequently called upon to perform is to script out objects from one server and to apply them to another. Fortunately, PowerShell makes this easy.
Virtually every object in the SMO library has a Script method. Actually, they have two, one without parameters and one that accepts a ScriptOptions collection for how to control the scripting. Want to script out an entire database? Navigate to the database, and call the Script() method. Need a procedure? Navigate to the procedure, and call the Script() method. Views? Functions? Tables? Indexes? They all have a Script() method that you can use.
What's really neat is that with every version of SQL Server, the SMO libraries are updated to handle the new features. For instance, SQL Server 2012 introduced a ColumnStore index. The Script() method for the index can script it out.
Have you ever written a T-SQL script to script out all of the indexes in a database? It can get quite long (the incomplete version that I have is over 300 lines of code)… and are you certain that it handles everything correctly? Here's my PowerShell script that will script out any index. Over half of this script is parameters, comments and code to verify parameters and to get it ready to send the output to a file. The actual scripting of all of the indexes is less than 40 lines… let's see you do that in T-SQL. As an added bonus, the next version of SQL Server will probably include clustered ColumnStore indexes… this script will generate those without any modifications, since the logic to generate the script is in the SMO library, not in PowerShell (the only thing that I might have to change is the method of ensuring that the SMO libraries are loaded… that keeps changing from version to version). Here is my PowerShell script:
# Syntax: & GetIndexes.ps1 "SQLServer\Instance" "Database" "OutputPathAndFileName"
# In order for PowerShell to run scripts, run Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned

# 1. If the specified output file already exists, it is deleted without warning.

Twice as many female respondents to Treasury & Risk's 2012 Women in Finance survey see a glass ceiling for women in corporate America, at 80%, as do male respondents. But the 41% of men who agreed that the barrier exists is a big jump from 2011, when only 29% of male respondents agreed. Women are also more critical of programs to promote gender diversity in top positions, with just 43% giving their company's effort an A or B grade, vs. 80% of men. But when asked whether regulators should require gender diversity on corporate boards, 60% of women and 84% of men say no.

The Grizzly Tale of Smelly Melly.
In a Little Jersey Town
Melinda Warren can be found
Her ghost lurks 'round this hellish pit
around the spot her body hit.
Her story is quite short but true
how she died with her heart broken in two
Her name will forever be on your tongue
because they took her life so young
It happened in July that dreadful day
The day they came to make her pay
for being filthy and falling in love
They chased her south to Mercy Dove
The Mayor's son, whom she loved
and his friends chased her hard and fast
to the edge of the cliff where Melly let out a breath that was her last
A Twist, a taunt, a tumble and over she went
hitting the ground with a rumble
And that was the end of Melinda Warren
I'm afraid to say its true.
But if you ever in Orange New Jersey this is what you should do.
Go to the cliff and read the sign on her grave:
"Melly Melly Oh dear Melly
People gaged for your were smelly
Met your end for a guy,
for his love you surely died
Even though your death was grim
you should have known you couldn't have him
Now you're bured gone for good
hope you don't come back

In Waupaca County there is a wealth of historical artifacts and places in which to see them. The Passport to History is a program that was conceived to help people become aware of the heritage of their Communities as well as the County. You may pick up a passport at any of the participating historical sites and receive a stamp for each site that you visit and once you have accumulated all the "visa" stamps, you can fill out the form and mail it in, and on November 1st your name will go into a drawing for $100 savings bond or one of two memberships to the Wisconsin Historical Society.
The Clintonville Historical Society is located in Pioneer Park, which is home to 3 historic buildings. The History House Museum, The Ralph Denn Cabin are open 1 – 4 p.m. June, July and August and are located at 32 – 11th St. in Clintonville.
Our next stop on the Passport to History is Iola, and the Iola Depot. Also in the Depot St. complex is the Helvetia Town Hall, a log cabin, a reproduction of a one-room school house and the 1901 Firehouse. Iola is proud of their history and it certainly shows. It is located at 210 Depot St in Iola and open every Saturday of June, July, August and September from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m.
We will continue our "passport to history" in our next blog post! Stay tuned for even more history of Waupaca County!

Yesterday I wrote about using Moodle on SharePoint, and today I feel the need to share another option for running a Virtual Learning Environment on SharePoint.
This is the SharePoint Learning Kit, which is a SCORM 2004-conformant e-learning delivery and tracking application (that sounds good doesn't it!). It works on Microsoft Office SharePoint server (the one you buy...), or Windows SharePoint services (the one that's free...). Basically, it's a kit for you to build your own VLE, and like Moodle it's free...
The blurb says that it supports SCORM 1.2, SCORM 2004, and Class Server content and allows assignment, tracking and grading of both e-learning and non-e-learning content
You can download it from the Codeplex website too

Is XML accessible?
XML is short for Extensible Markup Language and is a specification from the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). It is not a replacement for HTML but is one level up: It is a meta-syntax, used to define new markup languages. XML's key benefits are its extensibility (XML-based languages can be extended with new custom tags) and its portability (XML-based languages can be used across different platforms and devices).
XML can be good for accessibility. With XML, content is entirely independent from structure. Therefore, a single content file in an XML language can be rendered differently to different users, so users of screen readers, Braille output devices, graphic browsers, and small hand-held computers, for example, can all receive the same information but have it presented in ways that make the most sense for their unique devices.
XML is already having a significant impact on web-based business. Historically, there have been major limitations in the content that could be displayed with HTML. Mathematical notation, for example, could not be displayed with HTML, so developers would rely on workaround techniques such as GIF images of mathematical formulas, which blur when enlarged and usually aren't accompanied by alternate text. Many languages have been developed with XML that are eliminating these types of barriers. The following are a few examples, including the accessibility implications of each:
- XHTML— A reformulation of HTML using the more rigid XML syntax. The result is Web pages that are written with well-formed and valid code (contrast with the sloppy HTML of many current Web pages). Better code often translates to better accessibility. This reformulation of XML to XHTML is not possible without the use of an Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSL).
- MathML— Provides a standard logical structure for the communication of mathematical expressions, allowing them, for example, to be displayed on Web pages and (potentially) read by screen readers.
- CML (Chemical Markup Language)— The chemistry equivalent to MathML.
- Synchronized Multimedia Integration Language (SMIL)— Enables authoring of interactive audiovisual presentations. This is the language by which captions and audio descriptions are typically synchronized with a web-based multimedia presentation.
- Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG)— A language for describing two-dimensional graphics. SVG includes a number of features that make graphics on the Web more accessible than is otherwise possible. For example, users can enlarge a graphic without loss of clarity. For more information, consult Accessibility Features of SVG.
- Voice Extensible Markup Language (VoiceXML)— A markup language for structuring interactive voice response applications. In order to make these applications accessible to users who are deaf or hard of hearing, the language provides a mechanism for including text alternatives to audio content. Additional VoiceXML accessibility guidelines are provided in an appendix of the specification document.
- MusicXML— A markup language for musical scores. Client software that is currently available interprets the markup and displays a musical score visually on the computer screen. However, the potential also exists for conversion into unified Braille Music Code, giving blind musicians easy access to the same online scores as their sighted peers.
- DAISY— (Digital Accessible Information System)—A standard by which digital talking books are marked up in order to provide structure and facilitate navigation.
The IMS Global Learning Consortium, an organization that is developing and promoting open specifications for online distributed learning activities, strongly recommends XML in its IMS Guidelines for Developing Accessible Learning Applications and devotes an entire section (section 4) to using XML for accessibility.
However, XML is not without potential accessibility problems. The primary accessibility issue is that developers can use XML to create inaccessible languages. HTML, for example, provides a tremendous variety of accessibility features in its specification ("alt" attributes for images, title attributes for frames, etc.). Web designers don't always use these features, but at least it's possible to design an accessible Web page with HTML. XML gives developers tremendous freedom to develop their own languages, and with this freedom there is the possibility that some new languages will provide no means of making content accessible. To address this issue, the W3C's Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) has developed guidelines for designing accessible applications with XML. The XML Accessibility Guidelines is currently a work in progress. It's a reasonable assumption, however, that not all XML developers will create accessible languages. In Section 4.2 of the IMS Accessibility Guidelines (cited in the preceding paragraph), IMS recommends that authors "seek to confine their selection of special-purpose XML languages to those already in general use, especially those languages designed with accessibility provisions."

CHA Evaporator
3 Hearth Thermal Evaporator for Metal Films
Manager: Aaron WindsorBackup: Christopher Alpha
The CHA Industries vacuum system is used for evaporating thin films by resistive heating. A cryopump enables base pressures of 10E-7 Torr range to be reached. The 2 kW power supply is used for thermal evaporation from three individually shuttered parallel sources which can be used for sequential thin films. Gold, silver, aluminum, nickel, chrome, copper and germanium are among the metals available for deposition. Films up to 500 nm can be deposited. This system is a rapid turn-around machine with a typical pump down time of 45 minutes.

Shipment arrived on time and as ordered.
The La Crosse V10-TH Wireless Weather Station (Model No. C84343) is absolutely wonderful. The setup was easy with the Quick Setup Guide provided with the unit. The packaging contains additional support information with the website and phone number if there are questions. I especially liked the daily high low readings and the color on the unit! Tech Instrumentation provided great communication as to the availability of the product and shipping details. If fact, it arrived one day prior to the estimated delivery date. I would absolutely recommend this product and Tech Instrumentation for anyone looking for an indoor/outdoor weather station!
I needed a replacement as my original sensor no longer worked. This one works fine.
I can't way enough about the customer service at Tech Instrumentation. I was looking for a hard to find specialty part, which the manufacturer told me would need to be custom made. After calling and speaking with a representative at Tech Instrumentation, the part was located and order was filled, right over the phone. Delivery was prompt, and instrument is working great. Highly recommended company for lab supplies!
Put batteries in and worked great

Apple's /quotes/zigman/68270 /quotes/nls/aapl AAPL on a tear. Fusion-io's /quotes/zigman/5375401 /quotes/nls/fio FIO on a tear. Google's /quotes/zigman/93888 /quotes/nls/goog GOOG been steadily rallying for a long time now. Lindsay /quotes/zigman/232307 /quotes/nls/lnn LNN too. Which means four out of the Revolution Investing portfolio's five largest positions have been rocking higher and propelling our portfolios to new places.
Here's a chart of those four stocks over the last 90 days (which consists of about 65 trading days):
And guess what — having 15% to 45% gains over the last three months means that these stocks and many others in our long portfolio are probably starting to get a little bit ahead of themselves. Remember when we were buying Apple calls back when it was more than $100 lower than today's quote? Same with Google. Heck, just two weeks ago, I told you guys that Apple was about to break out and head to $700. Not quite there yet, but…
Sell when others are greedy and wait til the markets panic again next time to get aggressive about buying.
As for me, I'm going to go ahead and sell down some of my Apple and my Google today. For Apple, I'll trim by selling a little bit of the Apple common. I'm also going to sell up to about half of my Google calls, which will still leave it a top 3 position. Apple will remain my biggest position, but I'll have locked in some very size-able gains from my most recent purchases on this one.
Facebook's /quotes/zigman/9962609 /quotes/nls/fb FB the big loser in the portfolio right now, but even that one I remain rather confident about if you've got a time horizon of at least a couple years out. I don't know where it will bottom and as you guys have seen, I'm willing to be very patient before adding any more to it.
I know a lot of you are very happy about your portfolio's performance of late. That's the time to trim a little bit. Next time you nauseous and cry over your portfolio, that will be the time to get aggressively long again.
Little tweaks to the portfolio like this over time contribute to long-term outperformance.
To learn more about how to trade your positions up in any market, I invite you to check out my new book, Everything You Need to Know About Investing, where I explain how that works in easy-to-understand language.

Also, a resource with which every Civil War writer should be familiar was an invaluable help in pulling together this gatefold package—the Official Records of the Union and Confederate Navies in the War of the Rebellion. Looking up an action report for a World War II ship requires a journey to the National Archives. Comparable information about a Civil War vessel, however, is readily available in the 31-volume Naval ORs. To find it just requires a trip to a large library or an internet search. All sorts of details about the Battle of Mobile Bay—including officers' reports, forts' armaments, order of battle, messages sent and received, ammunition expended, and damage reports—were found in Series I, Volume 21, which covers the West Gulf Blockading Squadron in 1864.
Beyond just facts and figures, the Naval ORs, as well as their 128-volume army counterpart, are a rich and colorful compendium of men's actions in the heat of Civil War battle. And an anecdote in Volume 21 from the journal of USS Lackawanna Captain John B. Marchand illustrates how those actions can occasionally be surprisingly humorous.
Marchand was standing on the screw sloop's bridge when she slammed into the CSS Tennessee during the Battle of Mobile Bay's final, hectic free-for-all. Peering into one of the ironclad's gun ports, he locked eyes with a Confederate Sailor, who the captain recalled, "hallooed out to me, 'You d-d Yankee son of a b-h.'" Nearby Union crewmen overheard the curse and "redoubled their discharges of small arms into the rebel ports, and as some of them had not small arms in their possession, one of them threw a spitbox and another a hand holystone at the fellow." One fact the Naval ORs don't include is whether the profane Confederate was among the Tennessee 's 11 casualties.

With Earth Day less than a week away, it seems as if everyone is swapping invites to green parties and earth-focused events here in NYC. The third-annual Project Earth Day fashion show is perhaps the hottest ticket in town, and the Inhabitat sustainable style team will be onsite to cover the night's festivities at the Openhouse Gallery in Manhattan's Nolita neighborhood. As with last year's stellar line up, Project Earth Day 2009 will highlight a student competition as well as a runway show featuring some of the brightest stars in eco fashion design. Read on for details on the April 23rd runway show, as well as highlights from Project Earth Days past.
Project Earth Day is a unique annual showcase of the most innovative brands in sustainable design, and serves as a NYC-based celebration of leadership in the fashion, interiors, and green building industries. The theme of this year's event is 'Through the Looking Glass: An Exploration of Scale and Proportion'. The event's organizers propose a metaphoric play on dimension: "Our wonderland is present-day New York City, viewed through a distorted lens – where big is small, small is big, and the worlds of building and fashion collide through an exploration of scale."
Bahar Shahpar, the show's uber-talented stylist and co-producer, in partnership with the US Green Building Council (USGBC) and the New York Restoration Project (NYRP), will no doubt put an urban chic spin on new directions for the eco fashion frontier. An amazing roster of sponsors have also contributed generously to this year's showcase of sustainable style.
The seeds of the future are encapsulated in the hearts and minds of student designers, and Project Earth Day's organizers recognize this fact by hosting a student design competition each year. This year's prizes are eco bountiful and the media coverage will be extensive, so for the finalists whose designs will be voted on by a distinguished panel of guest judges, this is a fabulous opportunity to generate buzz around one's budding label or collection. Project Earth Day is a great way to identify new eco fashion talent, as we saw with last year's outstanding winners: Amira Marion (Grand Prize), Maritza Romo de Fusco (Second Place), Judy Lee (Third Place), Ashley Newsome, and Daphne Woo (Honorable Mentions). Stay tuned for our follow up coverage on both the runway presentation of the student competition and the night's featured fashion designers.
2008 Grand Prize Winner: Amira Marion (Parsons)
"In these modern times, individuals, companies, and even countries often consume more than they produce, using resources and creating waste in disproportionately large shares. This has seemed to work until now, but things are clearly not as they seem. The time has come for us to shift the weight and take a step back to consider a different reality – one where size is relative and small changes can have a huge impact. True sustainability is ultimately a carefully achieved balance between commerce, humanity, and the environment."

No one who has been paying attention will be surprised by this story from Politico describing the warn relationship between New Jersey Governor Chris Christie and New York Governor Andrew Cuomo:
Instead of jockeying for advantage, the two Northeastern governors — the Republican from blue-state New Jersey and the Democrat from bluer-state New York — have developed an unexpectedly warm working relationship over the past 18 months, marked by occasional dinners and more frequent cell phone contact, aides say. Not coincidentally, both also enjoy approval ratings at the 70-percent level, a novel, post-Hurricane Sandy occurrence for Christie and a nearly two-year constant for Cuomo.
Notice how the second sentence of this paragraph refutes the first. The development of the "warm relationship" looks, in part, like "jockeying for advantage," at least in Christie's case.
Actually, no one should be surprised by any of Christie's bipartisan moves and gestures, although I think it's reasonable for Republicans to be upset by his over-the-top embrace of President Obama on the eve of the presidential election. Throughout American political history, this sort of "pragmatism," (or bending with the wind, if you prefer) has been the rule rather than the exception. In the Nineteenth Century, American politicians with significant longevity were more likely than not to end up in a different ideological place from where they started.
For better or for worse, we see somewhat less of it these days because the force of the national parties, and their commitment to a single ideology, has increased. But the national Republican Party holds little force in New Jersey, so clever Republican politicians like Chris Christie can be expected to respond accordingly.
