Helen Meskouris, 85, has lived in her Auburndale home since 1956, but for the last seven years her new neighbor has proved to be a nightmare.
When her neighbor sold the house at 47-04 198th St. just over seven years ago, the new owner brought a whole new tone to the block with a poorly planned four-unit project that never received permits to finish what was started, leaving an unkempt building directly across from Meskouris' front stoop.
While walking across her new neighbor's driveway like she always did in the past, the owner sharply asked her, "What are you doing here," and told her, "This is my property," she recalled.
"From then on he came in several times, saying he wanted to buy some property," she said.
Though the still-unidentified owner never got the additional real estate, the current project owner, which according to the Department of Buildings (DOB) now belongs to Parsons Realty LLC, never completed the initial developments.
State Senator Tony Avella joined members of the Auburndale Improvement Association in front of the now-abandoned building last week, calling on the city to take control of the land, demolish the property and enforce the $100,000 of fines incurred from the Environmental Control Board.
"This is clearly on one of the worst abandoned properties in all of Queens," Avella said of the building. "It has been an eyesore in the Auburndale community for seven years now, and these conditions are simply unacceptable, especially for those residents who live right next to these properties."
Avella said he has contacted the departments of Health and Mental Hygiene, Sanitation and Buildings over the conditions, however they have gone "unabated."
According DOB, the four-unit building - which is currently littered with trash, overgrown with weeds and only recently boarded up to prevent foul play in the stripped construction site - has defaulted on 33 violations since 2007 for failure to comply with building and construction codes.
Neighbors say the construction was never finished because of poor planning, and that the owner stopped development when the city told him the plans for a driveway were not up to code.
"This should not be allowed to happen in a middle-class, residential neighborhood," Avella said. "It's a fire hazard, it's a safety hazard, it's a health hazard and it affects their property values as well."
Avella and his task force have found nearly 100 other similar properties throughout the city that are also are not up to code.
"These properties are blights in our communities and the city needs to take action to protect its taxpaying homeowners," he explained. "It is readily apparent in this situation that the city must demolish these houses.
The building and land was sold at public auction in 2012 for $1.475 million.
"Because there is no reasonable way for the owners of the site to obtain certificates of occupancy for the four homes, and the homes have remained vacant for over seven years, the DOB should condemn these structures," said Henry Euler, first vice president of the Auburndale Improvement Association. "The owners must take responsibility for this property."
Euler said the association and Community Board 11 have been monitoring the situation over the last year, and now have had enough of the disarray and confusion from the lack of visible response from the city.
He is calling for the owners to make good on their fines and the city to fix their policy for dealing these types of problems in the future.
"Unfortunately the problems have not been resolved to the community's satisfaction and benefit," Euler said. "The structures should be torn down and new legal structures should be constructed if the owner wishes to build again.
Meskouris remembers a time when she would step out onto her front stoop to a beautiful home and neighbors who knew her well, and does not want this to be the way she remembers her home of 60 years.
"Every Friday he would knock on my door and bring me a bunch of fruits and vegetables," Meskouris said of the previous owner. "He had every fruit tree spread out all along his property."
Today, vandals frequently hang around the property, and she often witnesses "droves" of suspicious activity.
"Who wants to live next to this mess," she asked. "I wont even come to my door at night."

Crunch Looking to Fill Void on Top Line
With JT Brown called up to the Tampa Bay Lightning, the Syracuse Crunch started the process of finding a fill-in on the top line.
Cedric Paquette was the first to audition for the spot at practice Tuesday. The Lightning's fourth-round pick in 2012 certainly fits the mold - a gritty, defensively-responsible forward able to play on the left side.
"I like him because he goes in and he's a little bit dirty, as far as going into corners, getting pucks and digging out pucks," said Syracuse coach Rob Zettler.
But Zettler didn't rule out trying out other players before a pair of home games this weekend.
"I just experimented with it today," he said. "I'll think about that over the next 24 hours."
Paquette was excited for a chance play with two of the league's top scorers.
Nikita Kucherov, the reigning American Hockey League rookie of the month, has registered a 22 points in his first 13 games. Vladislav Namestnikov is riding a league-leading 12-game point streak, in which he has recorded 19 points.
"I just try to play my game - go to the net, get space for them, and just give them the puck," Paquette said.
Although the pair's chemistry with Brown was growing each game, Namestnikov and Kucherov are confident they can continue their torrid start with someone else.
"There's a lot of good players on the team that can step up," Namestnikov said.
Neither Namestnikov or Kucherov were upset that they weren't the ones getting the call to join the Lightning. Both players are focused on improving their game in Syracuse, and stayed on the ice after practice to work with development coach Stacy Roest.
"You can never be too good," Namestnikov said. "You have to improve every day. That's what we're trying to do."
"If you want to be in the NHL, you have to prove yourself every day," Kucherov said. "You need to work more than anyone else."
For Zettler and the Crunch, call-ups are a part of the business. Instead of worrying how the top line could be affected, they are just dealing with it.
"It is what it is, it's a part of being where we are," Zettler said. "This stuff happens. I feel like those two (Namestnikov and Kucherov) are good players, and I feel like whoever I put them with it's going to be good, whether it's Paquette or someone else."

If he wins the election, Brazil's leading presidential candidate says he will not lift a four-year ban on biotechnology. Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva of the leftist Workers' Party opposes genetically modified (GM) crops, saying they are harmful to small farms.
His agricultural advisor, Jose Graziano da Silva, says, "We get premium prices on specialty markets that our competitors don't because they plant GM." However, the Brazilian Association of Seed Producers and many farmers say GM technology would reduce costs and increase yields; they claim the ban is hurting Brazilian competitiveness. Monsanto and the current government have failed over the last four years to end Brazil's ban on the sale of GM crops. Consumer and environmental activists have succeeded in using local courts to block any commercial use of the crops, despite most farmers' preference for the cost-saving technology.
Many Brazilian farmers aren't waiting for their government's permission. Instead, they are turning to a thriving black market for GM seeds. Brazil's official state-registered seed producers, who are allowed by law to sell only conventional soybean seed, say they are watching their orders plummet. More than half of the soybeans grown in key agricultural regions in southern Brazil are believed to be planted from illegal GM seeds smuggled in from Argentina.

NILES, Ill., Oct. 2, 2012 — Shure Incorporated announced today that entry registration for its ninth annual Fantastic Scholastic Recording Competition is now open for eligible university and college students throughout the United States until October 26. Judged by a panel of seasoned musicians and industry authorities, musical compositions will be recorded by student teams using the same high-quality Shure gear trusted by professional musicians and engineers.
Conducting a random drawing on or about October 29, Shure will narrow down the pool of registrants to just ten competing schools. Each team advancing to the next round will receive a standardized microphone locker from Shure that must be used to complete a recording project as part of the competition. Contents of the locker will include two KSM313, two KSM32, two KSM44A, one KSM42, two KSM141, four SM57, two SM27, one Beta 52A, one Beta 57A, one Beta 91A, three Beta 98AMP, two Beta 181/S each with an additional Omni capsule, one SM7B, one VP88, and one A27M. New to this year's competition, the competing schools will also receive six pairs of SRH440 headphones to use during and following the competition period.
Selected teams from each school are required to track and mix an original piece of music, which will then be evaluated by a panel of industry professionals based on the recording's overall fidelity, clarity, sonic balance, and creativity in selection and placement of the microphones. The winning school will be awarded the entire Shure microphone locker, valued at more than $10,000. In addition, students from one of the top three recognized teams will receive prizes ranging from a KSM42 microphone, valued at $999; to SRH840 headphones, valued at $250. Previous judges have included some of the industry's top audio visionaries such as Ken Caillat, Mike Clink, Sylvia Massey, Frank Filipetti, Elliot Scheiner, and Leslie Ann Jones, among others.
"This year's submissions are highly anticipated—as the bar for talent consistently exceeds our expectations year after year," said Terri Hartman, Director of Marketing Communications for Shure's Americas Business Unit. "Now in its ninth run, this program will once again build a stage to help foster the next generation of breakout talent. At Shure, we are eager to fulfill our role by cultivating the musical passions and creativity of students aspiring to pursue professional recording careers."
The contestants chosen in the random drawing will be posted on Shure's website on or around November 5, and dedicated microphone lockers will be sent in the following days. The winner of the Fantastic Scholastic Recording Competition as well as the runner-up and honorable mention distinctions will be announced on or about April 29, 2013.

Japanesey bag design
That said, I haven't had much opportunity to get out and about in this fine weather due to spending copious amounts of time at the studio. It's been very productive though, and I feel like everything is getting easier and going much more smoothly.
In preparation for the Melbourne Design Market (November 30th), I've been working on some new products. I've been wanting to design a nice, Japanesey style tote for awhile now, and when Bianca showed me this book, I was immediately inspired by the bag on the front cover. It definitely needed some modifications though, and my version is almost completely different. But that seed of inspiration was very handy:
(needs some internal pockets)
Here's the first prototype I made. I decided it needed interfacing in the top panel:
I think I'll get a bunch of these made for the design market, but am wondering if I should make & sell some kits as well? Then I can cater to everyone during this very budget conscious time. What do you think?

Romantic Party
Added Jul 5, 2013
Mykolayv, Ukraine
When I finished the dress I was happy with result and I really like it a lot!
The dress is really worthy, flattering for any figure and gives you a feeling that all your romantic dreams come true but only if you have several days to make it and somebody near you to help with trying on.
So… If you are suddenly invited to the party, have nothing to wear ( as always) and think that this dress will be ready in a day and night, you are mistaken a lot :)
The bust part is a real trap. I suspected this from the beginning because if you have the breast more than 0 size, it will never keep the shape in front: either your boobs will be on the waist line or ( after shortening the straps ) you'll have a pretty vulgar look.
For my 40 size (bra – 75C) and my height 166 cm, I had to shorten the back part of straps for 1 cm and front – for 4 ( it put my breast on the right line ). Then to give the right form for the cups, I cut their front center parts from the top to the middle point ( I draw it on the paper pattern to show here ). I made it when draping was ready and it helped to change the caps properly. I had to re- gather the draping but it wasn't a trouble because the edges stayed open.
One more piece of advice – if your fabric has no huge print like mine, it will be easier to make zipper in the center back seam.
And I also made a central insert not let my breast be outside too much and feel comfortable.
Material Notes
I used two fabrics – cotton and rayon blend with flower print as main and cambric for straps and lining ( main fabric is too transparent). Both of materials are so pleasant for a body and touch!

Gorgeous dress! From the picture shown with Printed Maxi-Dress 05/2013 #123, I understand the centre bust piece (no 1) was not used – is this correct? I am trying to figure out whether I should use the piece or not. Thank you!!

Aug 3, 2013, 07.13 AMby Oksana Starzhynska
Thank you very much for the compliment!
Of course, you have to use all the pieces otherwise you don't get a cup for the breast!
The bust piece – detail #1 was used but to get better fitting I had to cut it from the top to the center of the detail: on the last picture you can see my new line in blue colour, the red part was cut; in fact I removed mark 2 to the middle of the top edge. It provided the fitting of the straps and better shape of cups for my breast.
But it is very indivudual: you only can decide how to change the cups or straps when trying on. Maybe for your figure you don't need any changes at all.
But anyway the length of the straps should be checked before you join the bodice and the skirt so it's better to baste the back, front and strap pieces at first to be sure.

Ahhhhh, was my first reaction! Your patience and impressive work created an enchanting, romantic, and glamourous dress. You look sensational with this neckline and sleeveless style!

Thank you very much for kind words! Sounds encouraging, especially about sleeveness style because sometimes I have doubts about arms opened fully.

I just LOVE what you did with this dress ♥! I actually have very tiny boobies (HA!), but was afraid too much of my chest would be showing. I didn't even think to add the inset. Thanks for being smarter than me – LOL!

I also to have a party some day to shine there:)) Thank you for your nice words, I'm glad you like it. I saw your variant of the same pattern, it seemed to be simple to make. Mine was a little troubling but the result is worth the efforts!
Jul 5, 2013, 11.17 AMby liliv-1
Yes it was very simple because I used the pattern 07-2009-116 ( similar to 5-2013-123) which has a more closed front bust. It was also easier because I have small bust and the fabric was elastic.
I had promised to myself not to repeat a pattern twice and instead try new models, but now that I saw your dress I'm dreaming of a second try on 07-2009-116. If I find a lovely flowery print like yours I will knock your dress off:)

I don't mind:)))
I don't like repeats, too. I wish I could make at least those patterns I want right now :) But some patterns can be used with different modifications and thus we can get different outfits.

DENVER—Authorities say a 29-year-old man attending a bachelor's party died after he fell backward through an open window at a hotel in Black Hawk west of Denver.
Black Hawk Police Chief Stephen Cole tells The Denver Post ( http://bit.ly/1bGZPyt) that Dirk A. Anderson of Thornton was sitting on a window sill on the 11th floor of the Lady Luck Hotel when he leaned backward and fell through a window screen to the top level of a seventh-floor parking garage just before 5 a.m. Saturday.
Anderson was among six people in the groom's room when he sat on the ledge.
Cole says people at the party were drinking alcohol, but it is unclear how much, if any, Anderson had consumed. It's also unclear what relationship Anderson had to the groom.

Blacks, Asians and Latinos are more likely to live in "urban heat islands" that are most at risk during extreme heat waves that are expected to worsen due to climate change, according to a new study.
Researchers at UC Berkeley used satellite imagery to find neighborhoods in hundreds of U.S. cities where there are few shade trees and a lot of heat-absorbing, impervious surfaces like pavement, cement or roofing.
The authors paired that information with data from the 2000 Census to find that blacks were 52% more likely than whites to live in "urban heat islands" -- microclimates that can get an extra 5 to 10 degrees warmer during heat waves -- while Asians were 32% more likely and Latinos were 21% more likely.
The study, published in the journal Environmental Health Perspectives, also found that people who live in more segregated cities, including whites, are more likely to live in heat-absorbing neighborhoods.

31243, Hymns, Men Are That They Might Have Joy, no. 275
1. A voice hath spoken from the dust,
Its message pure, without alloy,
Of treasured hope and sacred trust:
Oh, "men are that they might have joy."
2. Should sorrow come, we'll not despair,
For He would not that men should pine.
The grief that comes we'll learn to bear
Until again the sun doth shine.
3. Before the Lord, then, humbly go.
His message will our spirits buoy.
On us his blessings he'll bestow,
For "men are that they might have joy."

Approximately 40,000 teachers are not fully certified to teach special education and the turnover rate is high.

- Ferrari
Domenicali bullish over second place hopes
Stefano Domenicali says he remains confident Ferrari can beat Mercedes to second place in the constructors' championship.
Mercedes outscored Ferrari in both the Indian and Abu Dhabi grands prix to turn a ten-point deficit in the standings in to a lead of 11 points. Most worryingly for Ferrari, it looked even more uncompetitive in qualifying in Abu Dhabi as Fernando Alonso even failed to make the top 10, but Domenicali said the performance in India had given him more encouragement.
"Yes, I think [second is still possible], because we have had two different scenarios," Domenicali said. "For example, we are a little bit more rational. If you look at the performance that we had in India we were in terms of pure performance as quick as the others - take away Red Bull, for the moment they are in their own league and we'll start again next year - but with the others we are absolutely there.
"So I'm totally confident that we can do our race and we can really take the points that are needed to come second. Don't underestimate Lotus because today they had a problem and they scored points with one car, but that's racing. It will be an interesting end to the season."
Domenicali also said that the high temperatures experienced in India and Abu Dhabi had not been beneficial to Ferrari.
"For sure we know that we have a lack of traction and downforce in certain corners, but that's the way it is and we need to manage the set-up of the car in order to improve it. We know that we've also paid a big price in terms of temperature, because the more we go in the hot conditions the more our car is becoming inefficient. We are paying that price but we should move towards a situation where the conditions are more suitable for our conditions. That's what I think, so that's why I said I think that we have everything in order to fight up until the end for this place."

Nazi Zombies Portable aims to recreate the Nazi Zombies experience from CoD: WaW into the Quake engine, making it playable on the Hand-Held PlayStation Portable Console (Does not require Custom Firmware ) and can be easily played on just about ANY computer out there (Even Windows 98!). For those who don't know what Nazi Zombies is about.... Nazi Zombies is a gamemode in Call of Duty: World at War.
Nazi Zombies consists of up to four people (PSP Version does not support multiplayer right now) in survival against endless hordes and waves of "Nazi Zombies". Each wave the rounds get harder and harder, and you get points for barricading walls and killing zombies. You use the points to buy guns or you can spend them on the mystery box where you get a random gun in return. NZ:P will feature downloadable map-packs (don't worry they're free). We are constantly working very hard on this mod, so check us out at our forums.
more info here in nzpwiki: Nazizombiesportable.wikia.com
Alpha has been released to the public, since Christmas 2010.
Beta 1.1 Was Released In May 29th 2012.
1.0 Demo Was Released in December 25th 2014
Hello Nazi Zombies Portable Fans!
After what was a lengthy hiatus, Jukki, Ju[s]tice, and I (Blubs) are proud to present to you the NZ:P Demo....
... exactly 4 years after our initial release!
Notice that there is no alpha, nor beta attached to that name, for it is a demo. This release is a demo showcasing what's to come in the future of NZ:P.
- okay, things are picking up here a bit...
Apart from having been rewritten from the ground up, (and heavily remodeled, reanimated, retextured, reworked etc...), this release showcases our determination to finish NZ:P. Our priority for this release has been stability, and playability ( which turns out is a lot more difficult than one might imagine on the Playstation Portable).
- Sure looks survivable, doesn't it?
This release contains the very primitive (yet extremely functional) foundation for which we will build off of in the future.
Within thie release, there is only one single map, Nacht der Untoten, and it only contains a handful of weapons such as:
- Colt M1911 -Kar-98k -M1A1 Carbine -M1A1 Thompson -Double Barreled Shotgun
- Sawed-off Shotgun -Trenchgun -Scoped Kar-98k -MG-42 -0.357 Magnum
This is a limited selection of weapons, we are well aware, but it's a great variety to play with!
There's a lot more miscellaneous information to be shared, but why share it when you can go in-game and check it out yourself!
As usual, multiplayer is still not officially supported, but we hope to look into it in the near future, but our focus has been set entirely on gameplay as of late. That sure doesn't mean we discourage you from poking around with it to try and get it working ;)
- It is not looking good for this guy...
As you'll notice, there's no immediate pc version to go along with this release, that's because there is no pc version yet!
That may sound like a bad thing at first, but it is a drastic and important change which the dev team decided to implement.
In the past, we primarily worked on the PC version, porting features chunks at a time to the PSP version, this led to a highly unstable PSP version. Not this time! This time we did ALL testing on either the PSP emulator PPSSPP and actual hardware! This time around, the PC version will be the port.
Yes a PC version is coming! But that's a piece of cake, because just about anything will run on the PC, optimized or not.
For now if you wish to enjoy NZ:P on the PC, you can download the PPSSPP emulator (which we use to test) over at www.ppsspp.org , not to mention that you can run any other PSP game you want on there!
For now, with this release we're doing something we've never done before. We're making NZ:P with the modders in mind, and as such, we're declaring this project open source! Available for download is not only the engine source code, but the entire qc source code as well! Happy Modding!
Also included is our current fgd file, for several reasons, we had to change our old fgd definitions file so unfortunately old NZ:P maps will not be compatible with this new release, but alas that just opens up the door to a whole new breed of developers!
For those keen-eyed mappers and modders, some of the old features not officially supported in the Demo *cough* perks *cough* can still be found in the mapper files, so why not give those things a go!
Alongside the updated fgd file, Ju[s]tice, our mapper, has made and compiled an example .rmf and .bsp file to showcase how some of the new changed mechanics work and how to set custom maps up! Expect more tutorials and guides soon!
As an added bonus, we have included a plugin for those PSPs with custom firmware that allows the "home" button on the PSP to be bound to a control! Useful those who wish to change up the control scheme to their choosing!
Though this plugin is included, it is entirely optional, and none of the default controls rely on the home button, rest assured!
- ...hehe, good thing it's only round one, things can't pick up that quickly... can they?
As per the future of NZ:P, now that we have the foundation of the game laid out, the real fun begins for us devs!
The release that follows is going to be a good one!
So what are you waiting for? Head over to our downloads page to check it out NAOH!
Thanks for standing by us for all of this time! ...and be sure to stick around for the future that lies ahead!
Yours truly,
Blubs, Jukki, & Ju[s]tice, the NZ:P Dev team.

3 years ago, i was playing Call of duty world at war. i remember it so clearly. Natch der untoten was the map, yes it was. so i was sitting with my ps3 controller in my hand on some ridiculous round thinking to my self. "wouldn't this be awesome if this was on the go?" so then i searched for nazi zombies for psp, yet at that time there was no such of an idea of it. i grew depressed. - _ - i was clouded in despair.

Financial Aid
A law school education can exceed $150,000. If you finance your law school education with loans and graduate with $80,000 of debt, the monthly payment on your loan(s) for a 10-year repayment plan will be about $1,000 per month. Thus, it is very important for many applicants to begin early to identify sources of financial aid.
Aid Sources
There are three basic sources to look into: the law schools themselves, government loans and independent (or private) loans.
- Law school websites: The first place to begin is with the law school's financial aid section of their website or the school's office of financial aid. Financial aid regulations change and law school financial aid offices are the most up-to-date sources of information.
- LSAC: The Law School Admissions Council site is an excellent website for financial aid information. On this site you will find information on FAFSA and guidelines for applying for financial aid step-by-step.
- FAFSA: The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is a need-analysis form developed by the U.S. Department of Education. (You MAY NOT submit the form prior to 1 January of any year, but have it completed and ready to mail or submit online right after the new year.)
- Grants, scholarships and work-study: Grants and scholarships provided by law schools are generally based on need. Work-study opportunities are also often available; however considering the academic demands, first-year students are discouraged from working. The financial aid programs of schools vary and deadlines often come early. Therefore, information regarding such opportunities should be gathered early on in the application process.
- Fee waivers: LSAT, CAS, and law school application fee waivers are available to the truly needy. For LSAT/CAS fee waivers, go to the LSAC website for waiver forms. If an application fee waiver is sought, it should be requested from all schools applied to. Such requests do not affect admissions prospects. When considering fee waivers, many law schools like to receive a supporting statement from an undergraduate financial aid officer. In pursuing any waivers, start early and plan ahead.
Points to consider:
- Timing: If you anticipate wanting or needing financial aid, start looking into it early.
- Budget: Make a realistic budget for yourself including food, rent, insurance, books, transportation, educational expenses and beyond.
- Documentation: Keep a copy of everything you submit to various lending institutions and agencies.

U.S. to auction state shale for drilling
Environment Auction to oil, gas firms raises fracking concerns
(09-18) 17:26 PDT MONTEREY -- A nearly 18,000-acre stretch of land extending from California's Central Coast to the San Joaquin Valley is the setting for a brewing debate over an oil-extraction method that has little governmental oversight.
The land, which spans Monterey, San Benito and Fresno counties, rests on a large chunk of the Monterey Shale, a formation of underground minerals long eyed by the energy industry for its potential to yield billions of barrels of oil.
That potential is expected to come closer to reality in December, when the federal government - which owns below-surface rights to the mostly private land - is scheduled to hold an auction to lease out parcels to oil and gas companies.
The lease sale, the second on the Monterey Shale in about a year, will occur in the midst of a growing battle among environmentalists, politicians and the energy industry over the drilling technique known as hydraulic fracturing, or "fracking." It injects a high-pressure mix of water, sand and chemicals into the ground to unlock oil and natural gas from shale rock layers deep within the earth - resources that cannot be tapped with conventional drilling techniques.
Fracking has been in use for half a century, but recent technological refinements have unlocked previously untouched deposits and resulted in a boom in oil and natural gas production.
That boom has stirred heated debate in New York, Pennsylvania and other states. Oil and gas operators say the process does not threaten the environment or the public's health, but critics say it could poison drinking water, pollute air and waste large volumes of water.
Unknown number
Now opposition is rising among environmentalists in California, the nation's fourth-largest oil-producing state. Operators have voluntarily disclosed more than 350 fracking wells throughout the state, from Northern California to Long Beach. But there is no way to know for sure how many exist, because California, unlike some states, does not require companies to reveal the number or location of the wells. The companies also are not required to disclose the chemicals they use - a fact that has angered some politicians and activists.
State and nationwide rules for fracking are taking shape, but watchdogs worry they will not be strict enough. Two bills in the state Legislature that would have regulated the procedure fell short last month after heavy lobbying by oil and gas groups.
The Monterey Shale drew the attention of activists this summer when the U.S. Bureau of Land Management, which oversees the mineral rights, announced the auction of 79 parcels spanning 17,847 acres. In compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act, the bureau produced a draft analysis of the effects of oil and gas development on the environment and concluded it would have "no significant impact." Among the tools the agency analyzed was fracking.
The Center for Biological Diversity, an environmental organization, accused the bureau of opening the door to fracking by minimizing its dangers.
"The (agency's) analysis is completely inadequate," said Kassie Siegel, director of the group's Climate Law Institute. "If nothing is done, you could have large-scale fracking of the Monterey Shale without any adequate environmental review."
Lawsuit threat
The group said in August it intends to sue the agency for failing to show how the sale will affect endangered species, including California condors, San Joaquin kit foxes and steelheads.
Because the minerals beneath the shale's surface are federally owned, what the gas and oil companies are proposing is out of the hands of local officials who oversee the property above ground. But the possibility of fracking has caught the attention of Monterey County Supervisor Simon Salinas, whose district includes some of the lease sites in southern Monterey County.
Salinas said he has not been provided enough details to understand how fracking would affect the environment, particularly the water that forms lakes and provides groundwater to the region.
"Maybe once we understand, we can say they can do it properly, do it right. This is an asset that can benefit the county, we certainly get some revenue from it - maybe it's OK," Salinas said. "But until we get the complete information, there's always going to be the concern: What's being hidden here that we need to know about?"
Fracking called safe
Tupper Hull, an industry spokesman for the Western States Petroleum Association, downplayed the use of fracking in California, saying it has not taken off like it has in other parts of the country.
He also said the procedure is safe. In California, fracking "has never been identified or associated with any kind of environmental hazard or risk that anyone has ever demonstrated," Hull said.
In parts of the Monterey Shale where the process has already begun - in Kern County and off the coast of Santa Barbara County - the Bureau of Land Management said it had found no evidence that fracking contaminated groundwater.
But studies elsewhere show a darker side to fracking. A 2011 congressional report found that oil and gas operators have fracked using known or possible human carcinogens, contaminants and hazardous air pollutants, such as benzene, toluene, xylene, ethylbenzene and methanol - plus, said the report, "fluids containing chemicals that they themselves cannot identify."
A Duke University study found high levels of methane in drinking-water wells near fracking sites. And Colorado School of Public Health researchers said this year that air pollution caused by fracking may lead to acute and chronic health problems in residents.
"When these oil and gas companies go into these areas and use new techniques," Siegel said, "we've seen all these problems in different parts of the country and that's what we're going to see in California."
For more than a century, the Monterey Shale has produced oil under conventional drilling methods. But companies are now trying to delve into the shale using fracking to unlock large amounts of petroleum in rocks too tight to drill the old-fashioned way.
The shale described
The Monterey Shale - which lies below the southern San Joaquin Valley and hills along the Central Coast - consists of rocks with silica, limestone, clay and mud deposited about 5 million to 20 million years ago. A recent federal study estimates it holds 15.4 billion barrels of oil, or 64 percent of the nation's shale oil resources. The United States uses about 19 million barrels of oil daily.
In September 2011, the federal government auctioned off a smaller section of the Monterey Shale - 2,600 acres - to oil and gas companies. Bids for acres went as high as $900 each and generated a total of $257,000. None of the buyers currently has a permit to drill.
But one of the companies, Venoco Inc., has shown strong interest in the shale. Having fracked in Santa Barbara County and the Sacramento Basin- an area stretching from the Klamath Mountains to the San Joaquin-Stanislaus County line - the company sought drilling permits, but withdrew its applications when the Ventana Conservation and Land Trust filed a legal appeal, calling for more rigorous environmental review. A Venoco spokesman did not return calls for comment on the upcoming sale.
Regulations sought
Gov. Jerry Brown has said his administration will develop fracking rules, and the state Division of Oil, Gas and Geothermal Resources held public workshops this year. Nationally, the U.S. Interior Department has proposed regulations that would for the first time force companies to disclose the chemicals used in fracking, but it is unclear when the rules will take effect.
Meanwhile, the two bills to give the state more oversight over fracking died in the Legislature last month.
One was a proposal by Assemblywoman Betsy Butler, D-Los Angeles, that would have banned new fracking until it could be regulated. The other would have required companies to provide information about fracking, including the location of the wells and the chemicals used.
That bill's author, Assemblyman Bob Wieckowski, D-Fremont, said it would have ensured a "basic level of public awareness."
"The public has a right to know," he said, "what's being pumped into the ground, what is the water being used, what's the source of the water, what happens with the disposition of the well that's fracked, what happens afterward."
This story has been corrected since it appeared in print.

Welcome to EarthTurns
Calcium is absorbed in the small intestine; this process is dependent on vitamin D. To provide the rigid structure of the skeleton calcium is vital, around about 3lb of the body's weight is calcium, 99 per cent being in the teeth and bones. It is important in growing children to help bones grow and the elderly as the ability to absorb calcium becomes impaired with age.
Together with magnesium, calcium is needed for nerves and muscles to function properly. It also helps to maintain the right acid/alkaline balance and helps blood to clot.
An adult needs a daily calcium intake of between 700 and 1000mg. Those at risk of osteoporosis may need as much as 1500mg a day. This protection is boosted when combined with linoleic acid from evening primrose oil. Calcium and phosphorus work together on a ratio of two to one for healthy teeth and bones and calcium and magnesium work together for cardiovascular health. The two most deficient minerals in a woman's diet are calcium and iron.
Calcium supplements have shown to protect against pre-eclampsia which is high blood pressure in pregnancy. It is a good idea to increase calcium consumption during the last three months of pregnancy and the first few months of lactation to ensure that the baby get sufficient amount of calcium to help bone development and growth. If the baby does not get enough calcium from its mother, it will be withdrawn from the mothers bones, possibly leading to bone disease in the future.
Signs of calcium deficiency are rickets, osteomalacia and osteoporosis.
Calcium like sodium and potassium contribute to both extracellular and intracellular cell environment. Calcium is also needed as intercellular cement to keep the cells of the body together. It also controls fluid to allow enzyme reaction to take place. Calcium is vital for the contraction of muscle. The brain sends nerve impulses that release calcium in the muscle which triggers muscle reactions. Calcium also helps to control cholesterol.
Calcium helps in the process of secretion, bile, pancreatic fluid, gastric, intestinal, hormonal and mucous all rely on calcium to move the small droplets through the cells boundaries and cell walls.

Revision as of 20:52, 8 December 2012
dwb is an extremely fast, lightweight and flexible web browser using the webkit engine. It is customizable through its web interface and fully usable with keyboard shortcuts.
The dwb package can be found in the official repositories and can be installed with pacman.
There is also various development versions available in the AUR: the development version, the GTK3 version, and the development GTK3 version.
Basic usage
Starting from a fresh configuration, use Template:KeypressTemplate:Keypress to open the Keys page. As you can see from there, most bindings are borrowed from Vim and Emacs.
Use Template:Keypress to access the command prompt. You can use Template:Keypress to auto-complete.
Read the man page for more details.
$ man dwb
Almost everything can be configured from the Settings page. You can access it with Template:KeypressTemplate:Keypress by default.
The configuration files are stored in
Search engines
Use Template:KeypressTemplate:Keypress to create a search engine from the first input field on the web page. Use Template:Keypress to switch between fields. Then enter a keyword.
Now you can use the keyword in the URI prompt to search directly on the corresponding website.
The first entry in
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/dwb/searchengines will be the default search engine.
DWB features an extension manager as a separate executable, dwbem. You can use it to install various extension. For example
$ dwbem -i youtube_html5
will make DWB play all Youtube videos using an HTML5 player instead of the Flash player.
$ dwbem -a
to list all officially available extensions.
Read the man page for more details.
$ man dwbem
DWB features an Adblock extension. Install it with
$ dwbem -i adblock_subscriptions
Restart dwb, use the adblock_subscribe command and choose your favorite lists of filters.
Usage Tips
Custom keybinds
You can create custom key bindings by editing file
custom_keys in the profile directory. This is
~/.config/dwb/default by default. All keysyms which don't emit (multi)byte characters, must be enclosed in
@. One keybind can execute multiple dwb commands. These commands execute in same order as they are defined in bind, and must be separated by
;; separator. If the keybind's chord is already bound by dwb, it might be ignored (behaviour is not consistent). In such case one can try to check, whether there is collison with binds defined in
~/.config/dwb/keys and try to unbind the chord there (eg set it to nothing). Any running dwb instance will owerwrite
keys file on exit, so remember to do your modifications while dwb is not runing or use default dwb interface (S k).
Control w :close_tab Control @Page_Up@ :focus_prev Control @Page_Down@ :focus_next
HTML5 audio and video does not work
Make sure you have the following GStreamer packages installed:
$ pacman -S --needed gstreamer0.10 gstreamer0.10-bad gstreamer0.10-bad-plugins gstreamer0.10-base gstreamer0.10-base-plugins gstreamer0.10-good gstreamer0.10-good-plugins gstreamer0.10-ugly gstreamer0.10-ugly-plugins
Search engines always search for undefined
If you are always searching for undefined even with the
searchengine-submit-pattern option set, then you should edit
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/dwb/searchengines and adapt the URIs to match your

Khathu: I was unable to lock the family in before 1875 in any type of documents So I just stopped looking for them. However, a friend suggested that I should look for the slave holding family assuming that the family remained in Halifax County, NC after slavery and that they kept the slave holding family's last name I located a Thomas Whitmell Harriss who owned over 100 enslaved individual.
Seventies: Hello alt and Khathu!
Khathu: Hello Seventies

Khathu: And lo and behold - my ancestor has a son named Thomas W. Harris
alt: thank you Seventies, Khathu is explaining a 'breakthrough' of his.
Khathu: In addition he has a daughter (my gg grandmother) named Winnie which is the name of the slave owner's (Thomas W. Harris) mother So it looks very promising that Thoas W. Harriss owned my family So that is my break through
Seventies: Awesome Khathu!! That's wonderful!!
alt: that's great Khathu, good use of your "skill set" !!!!!
Seventies: When are you writing the book? :}
Khathu: Thanks, I still need to look for some probate records
Seventies: So I have some news...

Seventies: Yes I do alt. You know the book that was featured on Bernice's show about Peter Hunt?
Selma: Khathu is it a possibily that any of these people appear in Barnetta White's books on the Cohabitation registers
Seventies: Well I got an e-mail from the author on 23 and me turns out my grandad and her parents are 4th cousins.
Selma: wow sevenites
Khathu: Unfortunately, since Thomas did not die until 1890, I will be looking at his parents and grandparents estates
Seventies: I looked at it after you posted on FB a little while ago.
Khathu: since it appears that he inherited his enslaved property
alt: Wow Seventies .... there is that 6 degrees of separation thing LOL
Seventies: Denise Griggs is her name...
alt: that name is familiar Seventies
Seventies: Considering my grandfather's age, 93, I'm going to presume that the connection was in slavery... She contacted me 3 days ago.
alt: okay Seventies
Khathu: Selma -my direct Harris ancestors are not listed in White's book but some of the other Harris might be
Selma: OK
Seventies: Here's what I was referring to alt. http://www.glasstreebooks.com/Page_2.html
alt: Okay, I remember her from Bernice's show, right?
Selma: I missed that interview on Bernice's show
Seventies: Yes. Liberty, MS is just on the other side of Wilkinson Co. in Amite Co.
Khathu: If I am able to confirm this slave holding family this will be my 10th slave holding families I have been able to locate and confirm
Seventies: My grandfather's family came from Wilkinson Co. up to Adams Co.
Selma: Wow Khathu..that is impressive
Seventies: Khathu is on point...
Khathu: It will also expand my slave era research to six states - FL, LA, NC, SC, TX and VA I am also working on some leads in GA on my Brewster line
alt: that is very impressive Khathu !!!!!! most folks know only 1, perhaps 2-3 at the most.
Khathu: @Seventies the goal is to seriously start working on the book this year @alt I did not realize that was the average
alt: that's just from my experience Khathu
Khathu: you may be right
Selma: That sounds about right to me alt Khathu were any of these slave owning families themselves related to each other
alt: Khathu, my great grandfather was born in Palymra Twp., Halifax Co., NC in 1852.
Khathu: My ancestors are from Palmyra
alt: oh, oh LOL
Selma: Oh jeez bet you and alt are related.. lOL
Khathu: @Selma a few were related through marriage The Boozer and Leavells as well as the Duvals and Moodys
alt: ancestral names from NC are Thomas & Lawrence
Khathu: Harris and Hannon Also Williams but from Warren Co.
alt: okay Khathu, I will be on the lookout for any possible connection.
Selma: Ok..just wondering
Seventies: Ok wait a moment. The Duvals are they the ancestors of actor Robert Duval?
Khathu: I have no clue
alt: And I haven't even begun to scratch the surface on the slave owning families.
Khathu: That is developing into my speciality
Seventies: yep...
alt: for the Thomas family, I have done a little work on the Lawrence family.
Seventies: Turnabout is fair play... :}
Khathu: @Seventies huh?
Seventies: How many books have we read or stories have we heard about slaveholding families writing about the descendants of their former slaves?
alt: for me, not many Seventies
Khathu: About 3 - The Hairstons, Slaves In the Family and The Sweet H@#$ Within
Seventies: Yep those are the ones I've read long before I got into family research.
Khathu: brb
Seventies: What else is on the genealogical table today. All of this news is very exciting...
Selma: Yes it is...
alt: I'm browsing FamilySearch filling in the blanks on my new 23andme RF match.
Seventies: that's what inspired me to check my 23andme matches. Still waiting for the two that I sent out...
Khathu: Enjoy the remainder of the day. I am off to run errands.
Seventies: have a good day Khathu
Selma: Bye
alt: this latest one presents a new scenario for me Seventies .. her connection to me is thru a relatively recent marriage 1965, even tho' these families were contemporaries from the 1840's.
Seventies: okay with the same surnames from the 1840's right?
alt: right, I had them in my database. and in the same neighborhood as my FPOC from the early to mid 1800's.
Seventies: That is fascinating... And you all are 4th cousins, right?
Selma: Had this person done any research alt
alt: all the way down to her mom & dad getting maried in 1967 and her birth in 1969. she had researched her mother's family lines Selma, those are the ones she kept mentioning in her correspondence with me. Adn I know her maternal lines very well,
Seventies: You had mentioned that she was also related to you through her paternal family as well. Were you able to give her any details on this?
alt: she is related thru her paternal line to me, not her maternal line Seventies
Seventies: oh okay.
alt: her father and I have a common great-great grandmother. and I remember her father when he was born LOL
Selma: Wow..
alt: and her mother too LOL and her LOL
Seventies: wow lol Sheesh!
alt: but I NEVER figured then that DNA would connect me to her
Seventies: That is interesting.
alt: not her maternal lines, but just her.
Selma: When was the last time you saw her parents..or should I ask
alt: I saw her father about 2-3 years ago Selma. this girl (woman) is now married and living in the Atlanta area.
Seventies: Ok I'm curious are they a collateral family of yours?? I'm just trying to understand the connection...
alt: well, her lines are now considered collateral, since her mother married a direct cousin, right? I'm related to her, but not her mother
Seventies: ok Alright I need to get going. Have a good day.
alt: She and her children, but not her mother and those ancestors, right .... this is some confusing stuff!!!! LOL
Selma: Yes it is..I think I need a nap to sort it out Folks..have a great day and a wonderful Easter
