End of Gillnet Fishing
SKAMOKAWA, Wash. (AP) — A longtime gillnet fisherman on the Columbia River says he is giving up his profession, after both Washington and Oregon voted to phase out gillnet fishing on the main stem river. Marty Kuller tells the Longview Daily News the new Columbia River fisheries plan will leave little room for him and his way of life. The new rules would relegate gillnets to tributaries and bays and force commercial fishermen to adopt alternative fishing gear. The Washington Fish and Wildlife Commission adopted the new plan on Saturday. Oregon approved the plan in December.

SAN ANTONIO — All these Lakers losses and a turbulent flight here from Houston had Coach Mike D'Antoni hating life.
"At least they put my [hotel] room on the third floor, so if I did jump I would just hurt my ankle a little bit," he said.
Then the Lakers played the Spurs.
It wasn't as bad as it could have been, but the result was a fifth consecutive loss, 108-105, Wednesday at AT&T Center.
In fact, the Lakers played pretty well, overcoming a 17-point deficit and almost forcing overtime until Kobe Bryant and seldom-used Earl Clark missed three-point attempts in the final seconds.

EPA has approved a request for a Section 18 emergency exemption for the use of Intrepid 2F on saltmarsh caterpillars, soybean loopers and armyworms in soybeans in Mississippi.
The Mississippi Department of Agriculture and Commerce requested the exemption for the nonlabeled use of the insect growth regulator to give farmers another management tool to thwart the pests in 2003.The exemption became effective May 15 and expires Sept. 30.
Intrepid, which is manufactured by Dow AgroSciences, causes larvae to undergo a premature molt within hours of ingestion because it mimics the action of a natural insect molting hormone.
The product can be effective against many species of lepidopteran pests, such as armyworms, loopers and caterpillars, without harming beneficial insects, such as lacewings, lady beetles and parasitic wasps.
Saltmarsh caterpillars are often called "wooly bears" because they take on the characteristic "large, hairy" appearance as they voraciously gobble plant leaves to increase their size. Soybean loopers are small light green caterpillars that have a "looping" or measurement movement when they crawl. Armyworms are conspicuous by the stripes along the sides of bodies and distinguishing marks either on the sides or the head.
Loopers and armyworms are also difficult to control because of their resistance to certain insecticides already in use.
"Timing is everything when outbreaks of these pests occur," said Mississippi Agriculture Commissioner Lester Spell. "Hopefully, their effort at controlling pest populations will be helped because this product is available."
The department has authority under Section 18 of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) to obtain an exemption from the United States Environmental Protection Agency for a nonlabeled use of a pesticide if significant losses of an agricultural commodity are likely and alternative, labeled products are not available or effective. The department's Bureau of Plant Industry has responsibility for administration of the exemptions.

In our mission to enhance your experience on our site, we are deploying system updates beginning Friday, February 22, 2019. During this time we will be unable to accept and process orders or account profile updates such as mailing address, phone number, and email. If you need to speak to someone, please contact the Member Services Department at 1.800.233.8764 or via email at [email protected]. We apologize for any inconvenience.
The Institute's essay program aligns perfectly with our mission:
"To provide an independent forum for those who dare to read, think, speak, and write in order to advance the professional, literary, and scientific understanding of sea power and other issues critical to national defense."
The subjects examined by the vast Naval community of those who think deeply and consider the successes, failures and future of maritime and national security policy cover a broad range of fascinating, critical topics, some of which are listed below. Individual essay contests are generally made possible with support from commercial defense contractors, whose interest in encouraging new ideas surrounding specific topics lines up with the Institute's mission to host such discussions. The centerpiece of the Institute's essay program is the General Prize.
The General Prize Essay contest is perhaps the oldest continuously conducted writing contest in the entire United States. The Institute began work on the Contest in 1878 under the leadership of the most recognized and celebrated Naval Strategist in United States history, Alfred Thayer Mahan, then the Chairman of the Naval Institute.
Lieutenant Commander Allan D. Brown first proposed the idea for an essay contest sponsored by the U.S. Naval Institute for "a paper which shall be deemed the best" on 9 May 1878 at the organization's meeting in Annapolis. The first contest was in 1879. The name of the contest was changed in 1985 to the Arleigh Burke Essay Contest in honor of the World War II hero, former Chief of Naval Operations, and President of the Naval Institute. The name reverted to the General Prize in 2008. Today, the prizes honor the first, second, and third best articles published in Proceedings over the previous year, from October through September of the succeeding year.
Essay Contest may be found here.

Public meeting set for Thursday
Mayor Don Wesely and Parks and Recreation Director Lynn Johnson today unveiled a proposed new Master Plan for the Antelope Park Triangle, bordered roughly by South 27th Street, "A" Street and Capitol Parkway. The Parks and Recreation Advisory Board and the Folsom Children's Zoo Board will have a joint public meeting on the proposed Master Plan at 7 p.m. Thursday, May 23 at the Zoo entry plaza. The two Boards are being asked to endorse the Plan to set the stage for future improvements.
"The triangle is home to the Sunken Gardens, the Children's Zoo, the rose garden, the teachers' fountain and many more of Lincoln's most beloved areas," said Mayor Wesely. "The master planning effort was intended to bring the many interests together to develop a collective vision that takes advantages of many opportunities for connections between activity areas."
Johnson said the Master Plan will guide future improvements and investments in the Antelope Park Triangle over the next ten or more years. Improvements included in the Master Plan are:
The Master Plan was prepared over the past nine months through a process that included neighborhood associations, trails supporters, garden enthusiasts, historic preservation advocates and representatives of the Children's Zoo, the Lincoln Rose Society, the Nebraska State Retired Teachers Association and Downtown Lincoln Rotary Club 14. The Parks and Recreation Department managed the project, and the Master Plan was prepared by the team of Bahr Vermeer Haecker Architects of Lincoln and The Big Muddy Workshop of Omaha.

A Furniture Holiday
What in the world was the Broyhill Furniture Company thinking when they ok'ed this bizarre concept?
"Honey, whattaya say we drag everything out of the livingroom and set it up on a windswept cliff in the dead of winter - and then sit out there!"
Now there's an idea that'll really appeal to the furniture buying public.
But surreal concept aside, these ads really are beautifully illustrated - and illustration is afterall our raison d'être, isn't it?
The same August 1960 issue from which I scanned these three ads also contains the spectacular Bernie Fuchs ad below (although my scan is from a July 1960 issue of the Post) and I couldn't help but marvel at how influential Fuchs had become on the look of illustration in the short time that he'd been on the scene.
I don't think Bernie Fuchs illustrated these oddball furniture ads... but compare his auto illustration to these furniture ads and you can see his influence in the anonymous illustrator's work.
In his epic retrospective of Bernie Fuchs' career for Illustration magazine #15, David Apatoff wrote about how "for years, Bernie set the style for American illustration and attracted many followers."
In this series you can see the work of one of those artists David called "the Bernie Fuchs imitators".
How to categorize today's images... "Bizarre ad concepts"? "The virtues of indooor outdoor carpeting"? With a wink and a nudge, I am placing these pieces in my Architecture and Home Decor Flickr set.

It is definitely beautiful in its absurdity. These paintings create a wistfulness in me and makes me want to re-peruse all of the Reader's Digest Condensed books from this era. I do wish there was a way to buy prints of these paintings.ReplyDelete
I rarely disagree with your comments on TI Leif, but I really like the atypical concept to these furniture ads. Compared to much of today's ads and TV commercials, how can these ads be considered anything but removing the ordinary and placing it into an uncommon but familiar context. I believe it was done to attract attention and combine and relate the beauty of the furniture with the beauty of nature. Maybe it leans towards surrealism, but it works for me, because the rendering is not only superb, but very believable. We are defiantly on the same page that the illustrations look amazingly similar to Bernie Fuchs early style. If Fuchs didn't illustrate these, it was somebody that was just as good, in my opinion.ReplyDelete
Thanks Leif, for these inspiring ads that I have never seen before... truly examples of high quality illustration.
Tom Watson
Tom, that's ok - I understand your argument and can even appreciate the strategy - in theory - behind these ads... its just when I look at the actual scenario that I laugh out loud.ReplyDelete
I really do think the AD was being overly clever and that the results are comical... but I agree that the execution is beautiful. Whoever the anonymous artist was, he was damn good!
thanks for your comment - and by all means, do peruse those old RD condensed book... they are veritable treasure trove of great illustration!
- Anonymous3:18 PM
I don't believe the furniture is meant to literally be outdoors, but the illustrations are tryung to express the idea that the exotic quality of the furniture "transports" you to those places.ReplyDelete
I don't think it's really an uncommon idea. In a contemporary commercial, the walls of the room would fade into the background.
"I don't think Bernie Fuchs illustrated these oddball furniture ads"ReplyDelete
But you're right Leif! These ads look distinctly Fuchsian-- especially the people in that "Trianon" ad.
It's amazing how from the end of one decade (the 50s) to the next (the 60s) commercial illustration immediately took on this extremely sophisticated look. Like practically overnight!
You're right, anonymous - the meaning here was clearly not intended to be taken as literal.ReplyDelete
It still looks hilarious. Uh, erm, ...but maybe only to me. ;-)
- Anonymous2:44 AM
Very nice. Surreal design -- yellow sky, lamps hanging from nowhere, elegance plopped into roman ruins. Was the theory similar to use of "negative space" in the background to highlight the reality of familiar objects? Furniture itself is pretty bland now, but probably "cool" back then. Thanks for this website, I view it daily.ReplyDelete
As silly as those Broyhill ads are, the art is gorgeous and I particularly love the color schemes chosen for each. Instantly adds mood to each different scenario.ReplyDelete
Hiya Leif!! As usual, I love your blog, and in response to your Holiday feature, I've scanned some illos from Holiday mags of my own (specifically April 1961)... see my Dong Kingman tribute...ReplyDelete
very Nice post. The artist not finished the work by simply painting, he/she lived in their painting.ReplyDelete

Dear all,
How can I display a grayscale *floating point* image without clamping it myself to the [0,1] region? So for example, when the maximum pixel value is 135.6f, this value should be displayed as full white and when the minimum pixel is 5.1f this value will be displayed as full black, whilst everything in between will be scaled as a grayscale value linearly with respect to [5.1, 135.6].
(similarly to the "imagesc" function in Matlab).
Can this be done in OpenGL?
Currently I work with PBO's and I create a texture as follows:
Code :glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, 1, width, height, 0, GL_LUMINANCE, GL_FLOAT, NULL);
and update the texture in my display() function with:
Code :glTexSubImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, 0, 0, width, height,GL_DEPTH_COMPONENT, GL_FLOAT,0);
If it can be done with these lines, how should I modify the internalformat, type,... parameters?
Thanks in advance!

Holy Endings and Beginnings
By Susan L. Wallace
St. Andrew Church, Oklahoma City, OK
"Let's try Tone Eight once more." As I listened to our small group struggle to sing Psalm 104 in plainchant, my mind raced back a few months to March 25. Our last service as Holy Trinity Charismatic Episcopal Church was glorious. Almost everyone had shown up to close an eleven-year chapter of spiritual life together. Our worship had been a unique combination of liturgical high church traditions and contemporary music, and for this last mass we brought out all the regalia. As the resplendent processional cross symbolically lifted Jesus high above His followers, a parade of acolytes, liturgical dancers with tambourines, festival flag bearers, and vested clergy marched down the aisle with joy, like King David when he brought the ark back home to Jerusalem. Guitars and drums accented the celebratory mood as a multitude with raised hands worshiped our Holy God.
Outside observers and visitors had also joined in for this last charismatic hurrah. They were baffled at the dramatic turn of events. Why on earth would a wonderful church that had mastered the beautiful blend of majestic, holy liturgy and enthusiastic, heartfelt adoration abandon such an alluring and "feel-good" style of worship? They could not seem to wrap their mind around the idea of exchanging all this freedom for the "religious bondage" of Orthodoxy.
Our group had been taking inquirers' classes for almost two months at St. Elijah's Antiochian Orthodox Church. It seemed as if most of us would be embarking on this journey into scary, but certainly glorious, territory. We sensed we were on an exciting adventure as we headed towards the promised land of Orthodoxy.
But no one, including our mentor, Fr. Constantine Nasr, was prepared for the sobering moment of reality as we sang our joyous recessional. My husband, Fr. Mark, turned to face the altar and slowly began to take off his chasuble. For eleven years he had put it on to serve at this sacred table, but now he was laying it down as a sacrifice. A holy hush filled the room as he lifted the priestly stole of authority over his head and offered it also in solemnity. An ache pierced my chest as I stood in the back and watched an entire congregation weep bittersweet tears.
"Lord, are we doing the right thing?" I silently prayed. "Have mercy upon us . . . show us the way."
Emerging from the Convergence Movement
Why were we making this traumatic move? My husband and I had wholeheartedly embraced the Convergence Movement of the Charismatic Episcopal Church (CEC) thirteen years before. Beginning in 1992, many spiritual seekers who were disillusioned with the condition of the Church began to flock to San Clemente, California, where a group of evangelical and Pentecostal pastors had begun a new denomination with an ancient flair. This new sect was birthed as a result of an interdenominational conference of evangelicals in the late 80s known as the Chicago Call, which initiated a national dialogue on how to bring Jesus to a searching culture.
Out of that gathering came a realization that Protestantism had overreacted for decades and mistakenly thrown out the rich sacramental life of the early Church. But the sacraments could not be practiced without episcopal government, so men who had formerly pastored in street clothes began to don collars, cassocks and miters. The unique blend of liturgical, sacramental, evangelical, and charismatic expressions of worship with bishops, priests, and deacons seemed so right. It had taken us years to find this beautiful convergence of all the streams of Christianity.
I had converted to Christianity from a reformed Mormon background after I married Mark. Several rocky years of marital discord slowly began to heal as we finally agreed theologically. Surely, we thought, we could now find the peace and harmony we needed to raise our young daughter.
We joined a tried-and-true evangelical church, but it lacked the sense of community I had known within Mormonism. So we journeyed into a passionate Pentecostal church, but it offered no grace. A nondenominational church seemed a likely option, but it struggled with constant conflict because the backgrounds of its members were so varied.
We had become the spiritual family of the three bears. This one was too rigid, this one was too lax, but nothing was right. Both of us longed for something more, until we found the CEC. It was everything wrapped up in one. And we were one big international family. Mark and I even wrote an inquirers' curriculum that was being used as far away as the Philippines. We earnestly believed that God wanted to bring His fractured Church, His Bride, back into wholeness and unity, and that we were called to help make that happen through the Convergence Movement.
So what happened? Tragically, discord within the CEC's House of Bishops began to crack open an obviously unstable foundation. Hidden flaws were unearthed, and within a period of three months, half the bishops in the United States had departed. The house was doomed to destruction.
Our own bishop, whom we loved, attempted to recover what we had known by regrouping with the other separated bishops to start a new movement. Mark began to doubt and question. "If we are called to help bring unity to Christ's Church, why are we starting yet another denomination? If we embrace the theology of the one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church of the first millennium before the schism of 1054, why are we not submitting to the authority of that Church? Why are we trying to reinvent what already exists?"
It seemed as if suddenly several other Charismatic Episcopal priests were asking the same questions. The Internet was flooded with passionate e-mails between them. All were asking one another about Orthodoxy, especially about an almost unknown expression of Orthodoxy called the Western Rite. It was a recovery of what some would call the ancient Celtic Orthodox faith of the British Isles in the early centuries of Christianity.
In December 2006, Mark nonchalantly announced to me that he had made an appointment with Fr. Constantine Nasr. I was stunned. We weren't Greek, Russian, or Arabic, so how could we really be Orthodox? (I now smile at my ignorance.) But on December 30, our new adventure began. When Mark began to inquire of Fr. Constantine about the possibility of bringing our congregation into the Western expression of the Orthodox Church, Father's face lit up. He had been praying for two years to start a Western Rite mission. To our surprise, we discovered the Antiochians had become visionaries in the task of recovering this Western Rite of the Orthodox faith. Fr. Constantine lovingly bade us, "Come home."
So, on this final worship service as Holy Trinity CEC, were we making the right move? I watched as my husband took off his beloved priest's collar and added it to the sacrificial pile of vestments. He was serious as he gathered them up in his arms and handed them to Dru, the chief acolyte. Without rehearsal or even suggestion, Dru instinctively walked down the aisle and placed the precious garments of servanthood into Fr. Constantine's arms. The torch had been passed, and divine peace flooded the room.
Dramatic Changes
Months later, the changes have been dramatic. We now find ourselves worshiping in St. Elijah's beautiful Chapel of St. George. The people have so graciously and generously welcomed us, and sometimes it seems as if we have been here a long time. Yet I marvel at how far we have come in such a short time. Bishop BASIL of the Diocese of Wichita and Mid-America has bestowed upon our congregation of catechumens the name of St. Andrew, the first-called of the apostles. We are the first Western Rite mission of the Antiochian Orthodox Church in Oklahoma.
Our dynamic worship band has been exchanged for a simple keyboard that needs more volume. We sing metrical hymns rather than jazzy contemporary choruses, and we are learning the rubrics of the plainchant. Matins and Vespers are our only form of worship expression since we are on a eucharistic fast until our chrismation, scheduled for early January 2008. A regular schedule of fasting days now dots our calendars, and icons of martyrs grace our walls and bookshelves.
For emotionally charged people, it is a hard yet necessary wilderness season that is forcing us to look within and embrace obedience rather than feelings. Even Jesus "learned obedience by the things which He suffered" (Hebrews 5:8). These are days of significant transformation.
All those years of excitable worship as charismatics did not produce victory over the flesh. I've always known that God does not want robotic veneration. We are His Bride, and He created us for relationship with Him. But we were in bondage to the emotional rollercoaster of feelings without spiritual discipline.
Week after week, we came to church to encounter the awesome Presence of God. Goosebumps were a sure sign we had been visited by the Holy Spirit, and our spiritual radar was always looking for the "feel-good" feelings. Then many, if not most, would go home to become enslaved again to offenses, envy, jealousy, and covetous desires and appetites. Without our realizing it, the pleasure barometer affected our ability to "bring every thought into captivity" (2 Corinthians 10:5) and every response into obedience to Christ. Ultimately, life was based on feelings.
Even our "sacrifice of praise" was based on the standard of feeling God. Like an Olympic judge, we came away judging every aspect of the service. Producing an emotionally moving worship service became the standard for survival. If it wasn't "good," people would leave. "Strive" became our middle name as we succumbed to the people's demands. The music had to be wonderful. The sermon couldn't be so-so; if there was a prophetic word given, we had hit the top.
We thought surely God was pleased with us. And He was pleased with us, but not because we produced the expected good feelings. We were genuine seekers. He heard the cry of our hearts and saved us from ourselves. His goodness and mercy have patiently led us towards the Church of the Book of Acts, which was birthed in the Upper Room and has been around for two thousand years—the Church that has been the guardian of truth by refusing to bend to cultural fads and "feel-good" heresies. We are learning to offer worship that pleases God—not ourselves.
I am beginning to understand the scripture verse, "to obey is better than sacrifice" (1 Samuel 15:22). Obedience trumps preference. Sometimes I feel like the rebellious teenager who had to go out and do it my way, only to realize that Mom (the Church) and my heavenly Father were right all along. It is sometimes unsettling, yet I know God has ordained this path towards home.
Are we still a charismatic church? Yes, in the sense that God is showing us that His ministry of the Holy Spirit has been in His Church since its birth at Pentecost. The third Person of the Trinity is continually guiding, teaching, and comforting us, just as St. John said He would. And there are signs and wonders quietly happening all the time within His Holy Orthodox Church.
Frequently, I am asked if I miss the exuberant worship style of my charismatic past. Despite our unstable self-focus, God was gracious to our CEC flock. However, I see an unshakable foundation slowly emerging. Spiritual fun-seekers would not be found numbered among the heroes of Hebrews 11:35–36, who "were tortured, not accepting deliverance," who "had trial of mockings and scourgings, yes, and of chains and imprisonment . . . were stoned . . . sawn in two . . . slain with the sword." Each Sunday, as I gaze upon the iconic faces of the "great cloud of witnesses" who so willingly laid down their lives for His sake, my resolve to throw off the bondage of spiritual pleasure-seeking is strengthened.
On March 25, Holy Trinity ended its season as a Charismatic Episcopal Church, but it did not lay down its calling to help searching evangelicals and Pentecostals come home to the ancient Church. More than ever we know we are called to help restore Christ's fractured Bride to wholeness and unity. On May 6, 52 of us became catechumens, and as we spit on the devil our hearts were set like flint toward the promised land of Christ's Kingdom. At times we see giants in the land, but with God's grace and courage we will overcome. When we finally cross over at our chrismation, I pray that we become a more mature bride who continues to grow in the fruit of self-control and obedience.
Ironically, that same weekend in May, without orchestration, Christ the King (another Charismatic Episcopal congregation in Jacksonville, Texas) also became catechumens, and two former Charismatic Episcopal priests, Denny Roland of Hot Springs, Arkansas, and Patrick Cardine of Warrenton, Virginia, were ordained deacons.
I eagerly anticipate the first time that St. Andrew's celebrates the Divine Liturgy, when once again the processional cross will shadow our bowed heads and we will sense His pleasure—not because we have created a "feel-good" arena for Him to grace us with His Presence, but rather because we will have entered into His Kingdom of self-denial. Genuine humility infused with the Blessed Trinity's awe-filled holiness defines beautiful worship.
We are called to help recover the Orthodoxy of the ancient West so that East and West can once again be united. Perhaps our pioneering days in the Convergence Movement were training and preparation for a holy beginning in the Western Rite of the Antiochian Orthodox Church. One thing we all know for certain—there is no place like home. And quite surprisingly, chanting is beginning to sound somewhat heavenly.

Rita & Cane's "Northwest Forest" Room
Like this entry? Favorite it below!
- Name:
- Rita & Cane
- Location:
- Gresham, OR
- Division:
- Dark
- Inspiration for my palette:
- Wanting a calm, quiet, contemplative feeling in our master bath—the kind we find when in northwest forests--we were inspired to include natural elements (cork and wood) and the colors we find on nearby Mt. Hood. We also wanted to bring in 70s elements, a nod to the era in which our home was built. We found vintage fixtures with warm amber glass, antique brass, and floral details that fit with the natural vibe while adding some baroque glamour to it. Kind of an odd mix, but we think it works.
- Colors used in my room:
- The walls are Behr's Clove Brown, the door and door trim are Martha Stewart's Mushroom, the concrete counter top is tinted brown, the lights are antique brass and amber glass, and we've got lots of cork (on the floors) and wood trim/accents.
- Tips for using color successfully:
- We're thrifters and re-users, which means using what we can find--and that means being open to letting those things determine the palette. We want to remain open to possibilities as far into the design process as we can.

Important Reminder for Doing Business in Areas Affected by Hurricane Sandy
October 30, 2012
When unforeseen circumstances cause unexpected borrower hardship, Freddie Mac is ready to respond through policies that allow you to proactively offer temporary relief to borrowers who are trying to honor their mortgage obligations in good faith. While it is difficult to speculate on the full impact of Hurricane Sandy at this time, borrowers may experience disruptions in their ability to make their mortgage payments on time. We are asking Freddie Mac Servicers and Sellers to be responsive to any requests for assistance from affected borrowers by using options available through our Single-Family Seller/Servicer Guide (Guide). We rely on both Servicers and Sellers to determine the number of impacted properties and the extent of damage to each.
Servicers should begin ascertaining the number of impacted properties and assessing the extent of the damage caused by Hurricane Sandy, and should review Guide Chapters A65, B65, and C65 for general mortgage relief policies.
Due to Hurricane Sandy's destruction, the President of the United States issued Major Disaster Declarations for certain localities in several states, and federal Individual Assistance programs are available. When the President of the United States issues a Major Disaster Declaration where federal Individual Assistance programs are made available for a designated area where borrowers with Freddie Mac-owned mortgages reside, Servicers should immediately begin following the disaster relief requirements outlined in Guide Chapter 68, which include:
- Short-term suspension of collection and foreclosure proceedings for up to 12 months from the date a disaster strikes to help accommodate financial hardship, based on the relative merits of each case.
- Not assessing late charges or reporting to credit repositories for borrowers on a forbearance plan or paying as agreed on a repayment plan.
- Providing help with options for local, state, or federal disaster assistance.
- Monitoring and coordinating the insurance claim process.
Visit FEMA's website to find out which specific locations are impacted by a Major Disaster Declaration.
If Servicers have a unique situation that warrants special relief consideration, we will review individual circumstances on a case-by-case basis.
Sellers should review the Guide and their procedures for inspecting and recertifying a mortgaged property's value, condition, and marketability when a disaster occurs. Sellers should be prepared to address property damage as a result of Hurricane Sandy, per Guide Section 44.2(c). We encourage Sellers to review Guide Section 22.20 about circumstances that adversely affect the value of a mortgage, including condemnation. Sellers should also review Guide Section 44.2(b), which requires Sellers to warrant that improvements must be undamaged by fire, windstorm, and other perils.
For More Information
- Contact your Freddie Mac servicing representative or 800-FREDDIE.
- Servicers should review Guide Chapters A65, B65, and C65 for general mortgage relief policies, and Guide Chapter 68 for disaster relief policies for locations that are impacted by a Major Disaster Declaration.
- Sellers should review Guide Sections 22.20, 44.2(b), and 44.2(c) for Seller responsibilities when a disaster occurs.
- Visit FEMA's website to find out which locations are impacted by a Major Disaster Declaration.

I think West Kingdom is facing a healing shortage. I'm not panicked about it.. I'm sure we'll get through it.. but I'm concerned. Times are tough all over.
Our main Holy Priest pulled her main out of the guild to go raid with more hardcore guild.
Our only Resto Shaman has instead leveled a Warrior tank.
One of our priest is leveling a Boomkin. I don't know if she plans to stay boomkin.
Another Holy Priest is leveling her warlock (which could partially be my fault).
On of our Resto Druids finally took this opportunity to go back to playing his Mage main.
Another Resto Druid is leveling a Death Knight.
A long while back I changed my Warlock to be my main and stopped focusing on my Holy Paladin. The Paladin is still there but I'm still feeling kind of kicked in the kidneys when I play her.. so she's still stuck at 70.
Thank god for Persephany (Holy priest) and Leadpally(Holy Paladin). If it wasn't for them we'd be totally healerless.

R. Kelly's Youngest Child Comes Out As Transgender
R. Kelly's youngest child has publicly come out as transgender.
R. Kelly's 13-year-old child—born as Jaya—has recently come out as transgender and transitioned from female to male.
Now known as Jay, the teen first came out to the public on Instagram recently, but says he has identified as male since he was "6 or 7."
As of three months ago, Jay said his father was unaware of his new identity, but added his mother—Drea, who stars on the reality series Hollywood Exes—has been extremely supportive.
"[My mom] was like, 'Baby, you know I love you if you were bi, gay, [lesbian], you name it and I would still love you so much,'" he wrote on his Ask.fm page, which is a social platform that allows users to answer anonymously submitted questions.
"She was very proud of me, I was like, 'Thank you mum for accepting the fact that I'm a transgender.'
"And same with my sister, she told me that she was proud of me, and respects me by calling me handsome and calling me her little brother now, and I love her for that, so you know it was great for me."
Jay says he hopes to undergo surgery and testosterone treatments. He explains:
"I believe I am a boy and want surgery, and the medication to help me who I was supposed to be."
We love that Jay has been so embraced by his mother and sister! We hope his father, R. Kelly shows him the same support!
His mother Drea posted this adorable photo on Instagram:

My husband will be spending 90 days in jail. While he is there, will my insurance still cover him? Could we get him better care than the prison system will give? He has diabetes and depression, so I'm wondering how to keep his health stable during this time.
Wife on the Outside
Dear Wife on the Outside,
The prison will provide his health care while he does his time. So even though your husband may still be covered by your plan, his medical care will be taken care of by the prison.
If he needed hospital care, then he would be taken to a hospital and a guard would make sure he didn't leave. Otherwise, he will get care and medications at the prison.
Since you will be getting nothing in return for the money you are paying for his coverage, you may be tempted to drop him from your plan. The problem will come when he gets out and you can't add him back. Getting out of prison is not a "family status change". So you would have to wait until your plan's next open enrollment.

When cat owner Bethany Hart, 35, of Farmington, Mich., moved to a new home last year, she decided to let her curious tabby cat Cleo explore the landscape. "I thought he would circle the house and come back in," she remembers. "But an hour later, he was nowhere to be found. When he finally came back late that night, his ear was bloody and mutilated from a fight with another animal. I took him to the veterinarian to treat the wound, and I haven't let him out since."
L.A.-based cat behaviorist Marva Marrow, along with The Humane Society, endorses Hart's decision to keep her furry friend inside. "Cats are curious, and they like bathing in the sun, but you can satisfy both those needs by making sure they have a window to look out of and a sunny space on the floor to stretch out. These allow cats to enjoy the benefits of the outdoors safely." Below, Marrow explains the five best reasons to keep your cat in its rightful place -- your home.
Cars Not only are outdoor cats regularly hit by cars, but they also get into trouble when seeking shelter on top of tires and close to engines. "In the cold, cats will crawl into any open space in a car," says Marrow. "If someone gets in and turns the car on, it can be deadly for a cat."
Chemicals Suburban lawns are often sprayed with pesticides and are therefore not ideal stomping grounds for your feline. The chemicals can make your pet ill. Cats that eat poisoned rodents or ingest other toxins from dumpsters or garages can also become very sick. "Cats are very attracted to antifreeze," says Marrow. "They like to lick it, and it can kill them."
Coyotes Maybe there are no coyotes roaming the outskirts of your yard, but any animal can be a danger to your cat, from dogs and raccoons to their own kind. Cats get into trouble upon entering yards patrolled by canines, and they are also prone to fighting with other neighborhood cats. "Cats are very territorial, and they can be wounded in fights with other cats. They can wind up with abscesses and become deathly ill," says Marrow.
Strangers Hard as it is to believe, not everybody is a cat lover. If your pet's path crosses the wrong neighbor, it may be in danger if that person decides to spray it with a cleaning agent or worse. Just as you wouldn't leave your cat in a stranger's care, you should be wary of letting it interact willy-nilly with people you don't know.
Confusion While cats are famous for their sense of direction, kitties that are injured or scared can lose their bearings and become lost. Their access to your home can get blocked, such as by rush hour traffic, or they may be unable to get down from a high place, like a roof or a tree. "The cautionary tale of the cat rescued by firemen is not a myth!" emphasizes Marrow.
Your cat's home is its kingdom, and the outside world is full of threats to its health and happiness. To keep your cat from making a break for it, make sure open windows have screens, teach your family to be alert to Fluffy's whereabouts before opening doors, and use a kitty crate to transport your cat back and forth from the vet. Remember that an indoor cat can't miss what it's never had. Says Marrow: "That's why I don't recommend walking a cat on a leash."

30-Day Challenge:: Selling Like Hot Cakes
Tonight, as I was teaching a class, Leslie looked up the status of my fabric line online. Then she called me over. I was blown away by how many of the prints and even a few solids are listed as out-of-stock. I don't remember what the Moda policy is on re-prints or if they hold some stock back. All I know is the fabric hasn't been in the stores for more than a week and it's going pretty darn fast.

I ordered my fat quarter bundle as soon as I saw it in an online shop. Certainly glad I did. I have been waiting months for the release - ever since I saw it on your blog.

This sounds like s.u.c.c.e.s.s! It does my heart good to see other normal (in a manner of speaking) quilters fulfill their dreams. I've been looking for a stitch in colour all over my region and haven't seen it yet. I wonder if this rapid selling out is the reason? All the best....and here's hoping for reprints! Say...are you gonna keep designing fabric? When can we expect the next line?
- January 19, 2012 at 9:51:00 AM CST
IM SO PROUD OF YOU!! I don't even know you and it makes me happy to hear this for you! Congrats and thanks for such an inspiring story. You start dying clothes for your beautiful daughter and look where you are now! So impressive!

You have broken my heart because my stores don't have it! ;-( I always try to support my local quilt shops as the best one had to close although I do order online when needed, but this time I should have branched out. My only consolation is that if it sold that quickly, it will surely be reprinted.

I knew your fabrics were going to be a smash hit and I love, love love them, so I ordered at least of yard of each as a preorder. Boy, do I feel happy now! They are in the mail to me and I used gift cards to pay for most of it, so I won't have to eat beans for 6 months!

I'm so glad you posted this. I knew my local quilt shop had ordered your line (at my insistence) so I called my friend today who works there and discovered that it came in yesterday afternoon. Needless to say, I was there when the shop opened this morning and dropped a bundle of $$ on it. Now to play......

It was fun finding your blog, having just ordered 1/2 yard of every fabric in your A Stitch in Color line except the one with the complicated pattern all over it that looked like a quilt that could be made from all the fabrics. It is a fabulous bunch of fabrics and doesn't even go with the colors in my house. Don't care.....it's going to be a "Happy Quilt" to take naps and it doesn't have to match ANYTHING. Next to get.....the book that seems to go with it. So excited! My brother lives in your fair city of Austin and has since 1966-67 and I agree....it's the best city in Texas. It offers a lot. Thanks!!!

|Hawaiian pompom crab, Lybia edmondsoni
|Scientific classification
H. Milne-Edwards, 1834 [1]
|Type species
|Grapse tessellata
Lybia is a genus of small crabs in the family Xanthidae. Their common names include boxer crabs, boxing crabs and pom-pom crabs. They are notable for their mutualism with sea anemones,[3] which they hold in their claws for defense. In return, the anemones get carried around which may enable them to capture more food particles with their tentacles. Boxer crabs use at least three species of anemones, including Bundeopsis spp. and Triactis producta. The bonding with the anemone is not needed for survival, however, and boxer crabs have frequently been known to live without them, sometimes substituting other organisms such as sponges and corals for the sea anemones.
The genus Lybia contains the following species:[2]
- Lybia australiensis (Ward, 1933)
- Lybia caestifera (Alcock, 1898)
- Lybia denticulata Nobili, 1905
- Lybia edmondsoni Takeda & Miyake, 1970
- Lybia hatagumoana Sakai, 1961
- Lybia leptochelis (Zehntner, 1894)
- Lybia plumosa Barnard, 1947
- Lybia pugil (Alcock, 1898)
- Lybia tessellata (Latreille in Milbert, 1812)
- Lybia tutelina C. G. S. Tan & Ng, 1994

Things are moving slowly with the new Regency. I keep trying to prod it, to get it moving faster, but the book just snickers and continues to ignore me. And frankly, I'm not in the mood to argue with it. So, we plod along, 500 words here, 1,000 words there. Eventually the sucker will get done and I'll have the last laugh.
In more exciting news, my cp, Brenna Aubrey, had her very first signing this past weekend for the Jane Austen Made Me do It anthology. She looked so natural behind her name plaque, signing books, all adorable and author-y. The first of many signings to come, I'm certain.

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS 5) — About 1,500 die-hard San Francisco 49ers fans didn't have to wait for Saturday's playoff game against the New Orleans Saints to get their football fix.
Instead, they paid to watch Tuesday night as some of the greatest legends of the old football era – Joe Montana, Ronnie Lott, Dwight Clark, and Roger Craig – came together to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the 49ers' biggest play: 'The Catch.'
It refers to the winning touchdown reception by Clark off a Montana pass in the January 10, 1982, NFC Championship Game between the Dallas Cowboys and the San Francisco 49ers. That game was a precursor to the first of San Francisco's five Super Bowl championships.
"The catch happened right in the end zone where our season tickets were," recalled fan Mike Short, a longtime member of the 49ers faithful and a witness to the event. "It's one of the most incredible things that ever happened in my life."
As this year's 49ers team prepares for the playoffs, players from the 1980s dynasty team shared their personal memories and experiences of what is undoubtedly one of the most memorable plays in NFL history.
With San Francisco facing a third down with 58 seconds remaining, and Montana rolled to his right with three Dallas defenders in his face. Montana fired the ball, Clark leaped and made 'The Catch' in the end zone for the game-winning touchdown.
Clark and Montana recalled for the audience of fans how then-coach Bill Walsh had made them rehearse the play over and over again, often with ugly results.
"Joe never got it right," Clark said. "He'd throw it too low or way over my head… It was only under duress, with three people in his face and throwing off his back foot — the magic of Joe Montana — that he put it in the exact right spot."

When worn together as a suit, both pieces take on the rating of ANSI Class 3. Seeing as Class3 is the highest ANSI Class Rating achievable, it is ideal to wear these items combined or as a set.

The material used in the production of these rainwear products ranges from 150D (150-denier) to 300D (300-denier) providing you with sealed-seam construction to help keep even the heaviest amounts of water from permeating through the garment's seams.

The reflective material that is employed on most of these garments, as well as the products that have reflective striping, are both effective and economical. When it comes to rain gear and rainwear you cannot ask for better high visibility than what we have in stock.
Some of our garments come equipped with prismatic material and striping, which offers an even brighter and more superior performance in wet-weather conditions.
The kinds of styles that you can expect to see in this category range from your regular rain jacket or rain coat to longer raincoats for colder weather. From pants and bibs to entire rain suits, we carry various kinds of rain gear to maximize dryness and keep you protected from the elements while maintaining a very high level of visibility and safety.
