First ingredient is a named meat product
Insufficient meat content, low quality grain, controversial filler
The first ingredient in the food is a named meat product. It is the sole significant meat product in the food, and our confidence that this product contains a decent amount of meat is low. There is a further meat product 8th on the ingredient list, but this is not only a minor ingredient but is inclusive of water content (about 80%). Once that is removed, as it must be to create a dehydrated product, the ingredient will weigh around 20% of its wet weight. Ingredients are listed in order of weight, and the dehydrated ingredient would probably be more accurately placed much further down the ingredient list. It is highly unlikely that this ingredient makes any significant contribution to the overall meat content of the food.
The main grain in the food is rice, which is a decent quality grain, but brewers rice is a low quality grain and byproduct. Oatmeal is decent quality. Wheat is believed by many to be the number one cause of food allergies in dogs, and wheat gluten is a low grade product being the dried residue from wheat after the removal of the larger part of the starch and germ, and the separation of the bran by the process employed in wet milling manufacture, or by enzymatic treatment of the endosperm. In plain English, that bit of the grain leftover after most of the nutritious bits have been removed. The husks of rice are further filler.
Chicken fat is the fourth ingredient. We note that research at Purdue university has identified fat in the top four ingredients of dry food as a factor increasing the risk of bloat in large breed dogs. Smaller breeds are untested. We would prefer to see the use of whole eggs rather than egg product in the food.
Beet pulp is controversial filler which appears to be used in large quantities in this food. It is a by-product, being dried residue from sugar beets which has been cleaned and extracted in the process of manufacturing sugar. It is a controversial ingredient in dog food, claimed by some manufacturers to be a good source of fibre, and derided by others as an ingredient added to slow down the transition of rancid animal fats and causing stress to kidney and liver in the process. We note that beet pulp is an ingredient that commonly causes problems for dogs, including allergies and ear infections, and prefer not to see it used in dog food. There are less controversial products around if additional fibre is required. Soya oil is a further substance commonly linked to food allergies.

Death Of A Parent
(courtesy NFDA)
No matter what age you are—young or old, single or with a family of your own—you will still be deeply affected by the death of your mother or father. When your mom or dad dies, it may be one of the most emotional losses you'll experience in life. It is only natural to feel consumed by a combination of pain, fear and deep sadness at the loss of such a significant influence in your life.
The specifics of how you grieve will depend on a number of personal factors, including your relationship with your parent, age, gender, religious beliefs, previous experience with death, and whether or not you believe it was time for your parent to die. But there are some common reactions that people often experience after the loss of a parent. They include:
• Shock
When you lose a parent, you also lose a life long friend, counselor and advisor. Therefore, you may suddenly feel very much alone, even if you have the support of other family and friends. Even the loss of your parent's home as a natural place for family gatherings can add to the grief you experience.
After the initial shock fades, you will experience what is called secondary loss. This is when you may begin to think of all the upcoming experiences that your parent will not be there to share in. Things like career accomplishments, watching your own children grow, and other milestones. If you are older, the death of a parent may even bring up issues of your own mortality.
Allowing yourself to grieve for the loss of your parent will help you to say goodbye and loosen the emotion bonds to a loved one who has been a special part of your life.

The legal squabbles between Matthew Inman, the Seattle based Web comic better known as The Oatmeal, and Charles Carreon, the attorney for the humor site FunnyJunk, are getting more bizarre.
Reports circulating today indicate that Carreon — in addition to continuing his fight against Inman — is now turning his legal attacks on the American Cancer Society and the National Wildlife Federation.
Why, you ask?
Here's the back-story for all of those just catching up to this one. Inman wasn't too happy about FunnyJunk allegedly posting his creative works without permission, so he took his distaste of the company's tactics to his community by posting his true feelings on his popular Web site.
FunnyJunk shot back last week, asking Inman to pay $20,000 or face a defamation suit.
Inman responded with an online campaign on his own, which to date has raised more than $178,000. Dubbed "BearLove Good. Cancer Bad," Inman said he planned to take a picture of the money and send it to the lawyer along with a drawing of the lawyer's mom "seducing a Kodiak bear." The proceeds were to be given to the American Cancer Society and the National Wildlife Federation.
OK, you are caught up.
Now, the lawyer for FunnyJunk is reportedly taking his fight to those two charities, as well as IndieGogo, the fundraising platform that hosted the campaign.
We've yet to see the documents of the latest lawsuit, but Popehat reports that Courthouse News Service on Friday reported a new suit in which Matthew Inman; IndieGogo Inc.; National Wildlife Federation; American Cancer Society; and other unnamed defendants are listed as defendants. (Case No. 4:12 cv 3112 DMR).
The suit revolves around "trademark infringement and incitement to cyber-vandalism," according to PopeHat, who is not too pleased to see the latest development.
Here's what the Courthouse News Service summary indicates:
"Trademark infringement and incitement to cyber-vandalism. Defendants Inman and IndieGogo are commercial fundraisers that failed to file disclosures or annual reports. Inman launched a Bear Love campaign, which purports to raise money for defendant charitable organizations, but was really designed to revile plaintiff and his client, Funnyjunk.com, and to initiate a campaign of "trolling" and cybervandalism against them, which has caused people to hack Inman's computer and falsely impersonate him. The campaign included obscenities, an obscene comics and a false accusation that FunnyJunk "stole a bunch of my comics and hosted them." Inman runs the comedy website The Oatmeal."
UPDATE: The Oatmeal has responded to Carreon's latest legal action, saying in a blog post that the lawyer is "making things worse" by attacking the charities and adding that "people who are upset often say and do very stupid things." He's also encouraged people to stop harassing Carreon, asking them to direct their energies to the charitable fundraising campaign instead.
Your lawsuit is meritless and it'll probably just get dismissed, but I'm guessing you're just going to keep trying until you find an angle that sticks with a judge. My advice: take a few weeks off, stop saying crazy shit to journalists, and come back when you've calmed down. Write an apology to whomever you feel is appropriate, or just don't write anything ever again. Maybe start your own charity fundraiser as way of apology. I'd donate.
UPDATE II: Here's the statement from Indiegogo:
"As the largest crowdfunding platform operating in nearly 200 countries Indiegogo exists to provide crowdfunding opportunities worldwide, and a frivolous lawsuit doesn't change Indiegogo's commitment to this creative and popular campaign."

If you're a business owner or IT administrator looking for the best business-grade internet service in Grassy Meadows, WV, then you've come to the right place. Today, a company would have a hard time doing business without the Internet. These days, the Internet is crucial to a company's sustainability. For example, communication between employees is simplified with email, which requires an Internet connection. In addition, the fastest way for a customer to reach a business is via the Internet. The phone is not always reliable or at most bothersome. A business with a good Internet connection expands their ability to run a sufficient business. At Wirefly, a comparison of ISPs (Internet service providers) in Grassy Meadows, WV will help your company make the best choice for your business internet connectivity.

Since the 1990s, the options for internet connectivity in Grassy Meadows, WV have advanced significantly. The technologies used by ISPs improve continually. Therefore if a firm has used a single method for a long time, they need to evaluate other options. However, different options have their unique benefits and limits. An important issue is that of availability. Many internet providers are efficient but have a short range or inadequate distribution network. Before making a choice it is important to carry out research on the options that are available in one's region. The prevalent methods of internet access are DSL, dedicated leased lines, WiMAX, fiber optic and satellite.
Most ISPs in Grassy Meadows, WV offer various services together with internet access. Therefore, it is important to choose an ISP whose package gives the most value for money. At the very least an ISP should offer business web hosting, phone service and email hosting. Another important service provided by ISPs is support. Paying for support from the ISPs ensures that the ISP will resolve any problems encountered with the internet connection. Additionally, the support should be available at times suitable for your business. If your business runs 24/7, you are advised to find an ISP that provides support at all times
The best ISPs in Grassy Meadows, WV offer consultative services for businesses. Their expert visits the business premises assesses its requirements. The consultant will then recommend solutions that could improve the efficiency of the firm. For example, they may propose the upgrading of existing internet equipment. An ISP provider should also advise a business on how much bandwidth is required based on the number of employees and devices used in the organization.
The amount of time that a business takes to download or upload important data will determine the success or failure of the business. When a business chooses to save money at the expense of internet speed, the business interests will suffer in the long run. A business should not choose an ISP in Grassy Meadows, WV that barely enables it to operate each day. It must account for things like future growth and peak hours when many devices connect simultaneously.
Other important features to consider when thinking about speed and bandwidth are caps and throttling. Does an ISP limit download rates at particular hours of the day? What other factors result in limitation? Reading the fine print closely will help in determining the limitations that may not be readily apparent.
Security protection is another important consideration that businesses should not take for granted. Reputable ISPs offer anti-virus, anti-malware, anti-spyware and anti-spam defense. An ISP must provide details about the types of protection that it offers. Does it cover mobile devices connected to the system? Backup is also an important security measure, and it is not advisable for a business to have backups only at its premises.
The ISP should always offer help, and businesses should be encouraged that help is there when needed. Having the best internet connection will make sales higher and will give all of the employees the incentive to work harder.
All businesses in Grassy Meadows, WV should choose an internet provider that comes with a Service Level Agreement. This is a guarantee of almost all uninterrupted uptime. Business owners should also ask about what can be done if their internet connectivity becomes interrupted. For example, many internet providers will offer a discount on their bill if the internet goes down because of a problem on their end. Also inquire about available support lines for your company if you need to call for assistance, as well as the competency of their technicians.
Wirefly is here to help you compare the different business Internet plans in Grassy Meadows, WV. You can see how well other companies have worked for people in the past, as real advice is the best kind to take. Sometimes, new service providers are added that are worth checking out. A reliable and reputable business internet provider can be tough to find if you aren't using Wirefly.
No matter how plentiful or scarce your options for business internet providers in Grassy Meadows, WV, you still need to carefully analyze your options to choose the best provider for your business. You want to get the most for your money. Don't sign a contract with an ISP that can't keep up with the times. As the internet evolves and changes, a business' needs will as well. Find out if your ISP is prepared to meet your changing needs. The right provider will be ready to change and evolve with the rest.
The switch from IPv4 to IPv6 is a great example of technology evolving rapidly. IPv6 offers IP addresses that are unlimited in number, allowing for devices that can access the internet to have unique IP addresses. This will make the internet easier to configure but will also cost significantly less for a business to connect to the internet. Is your ISP ready for these changes? Changes that will allow you to lower your costs? These issues are important to consider. Remember, this simple inquiry can help you save money and increase efficiency and productivity.

On Berkeley's Telegraph, Few Creatures Stirred Xmas Eve--Or Did They?
Twas the night before X-Mass and up and down Telegraph, few creatures stirred, except the occasional mouse.
As the last booths of the 29th annual holiday crafts fair folded, shortly after seven, a palpable void replaced last-minute shoppers. Holiday bustle yielded to holiday emptiness.
When the Med closed at 7:20, Teley went dead. Fred's Market, a cigarette and booze stop, remained open South of Dwight. Fred's closed early, 10:20 p.m.
Not even the You Tube celebrity rats, showed up. A threatening storm that had made good its threats for days may have kept the rats away. Their agents advised them to avoid becoming drowned rats.
"Baby," said one agent to his rat, "we've got to move beyond this rat thing."
But nearly twenty off-the-road hobos, tramps, and a few bums assembled near the Caffe Mediterraneum Monday night to "celebrate," some said.
Like rats, the "kids," who aren't as young as they look, have been reviled as vermin in some towns, coddled in others, they told me.
Des Moines, Iowa is surprisingly friendly and compassionate, one said. Some like Indiana.
"Berkeley is the best," more than one told me. "Best free food in the country," another chimed in.
An on-line guide to the best cities to be homeless in America places San Diego first, Berkeley, second.
The celebrants said they got along with most City of Berkeley police, but not always with University police.
The "kids" told me they have learned how to make nice with local cops.
Although a BPD patrol car sped up Dwight, headed for the hills, and a UCPD car sped down Haste, not one cop car came by the X-Mass eve party. How could they cite Berkeley's young tourists for obstructing the sidewalks (they were), when there were no pedestrians to obstruct?
"How long will you be here?" I asked.
"However long it takes," someone said, adding "to get the job done."
A vendor from the crafts fair arrived bearing marijuana he said God had told him to distribute.
In order to receive the gift, you had to take an oath: "Do you share?" he asked. "I share," they vowed.
Calling the scene, a "metaphysical play room," marijuana man urged everyone to just relax. "Chill, he recommended," before he walked off in a light drizzle that didn't last.
Someone asked me to share the weed I'd been given. "I did take an oath to share," I said, and gave away the last of it, repeating, "I took an oath.'"
Around eight the first food arrived, salads and pizza, delivered by Slum Jack Homeless, a formerly homeless guy, whose adventures were mentioned in the New York Times, a few years ago.
Slum Jack said Trader Joe's had donated the out-of-date food to "food distribution networks." He was making deliveries on a food distribution network route, he said.
A dapper young man named Eyler, after hearing my distinctions between hobos, tramps, and bums, said that he knew a lot of traveling kids who worked from time-to-time. "I'm a hobo," he said.
"I've done farm work, and taken my pay in food and a bed on a stack of hay in a barn," Eyler related. "Did you know that there were many street kids, who worked for vendors in the holiday fair?"
I didn't know that. Although I knew that a homeless guy on my street, had worked at the fair.
"I''ll do all sorts of work," but on my terms, Eyler said. He recently moved into an old van, he said.
Eyler said he'd headed the kitchen at Occupy SF until, after two months, he couldn't take the kitchen squabbles any longer.
We exchanged stories about missing funds at OSF, and Occupy Berkeley. "That's why I never handled the money," he said.
I spoke for awhile with a kid, who, when visiting Berkeley, liked to drop into an IOT center (Illuminates of Thanateros) in Oakland to "get my head straight."
"We believe that our beliefs will determine our lives," he said. "We start our day, with positive affirmations."
Music was provided by an iPod driving small speakers. Our DJ, a young man named, "Eleven," said the music was Dubstep, a fourteen year old British electronic music, with strong base lines, and, some vocals, floating eerily above the mix.
At 9:20, donuts arrived from King Pin donuts on Channing. The guy who delivered noted there was no trans fat in the donuts. "You might tell them that," I said.
One of the kids called out, "no trans fats, just a shit load of artery-clogging regular fat."
All but a few of the donuts began their arterial journey.
Rosey, a Medhead, noticed what he called a 'halo moon," hovering above the Cody Bldg. He watched the moon, transfixed. Soon others joined the gaze.
We had it all. Hip music, good vibes, drink, a metaphysical playroom, and a halo moon.
A street girl, "Slightly Tippsie," told us that she missed her folks but couldn't go home because "my aunt and uncle would have me arrested. I still love them, but I can't go back."
Only two incidents could be considered down beat. A tall-fair-haired man, perhaps in his early thirties, gave a speech about his life in Kensington, where he was living with his mother.
"If Tanqueray closed down,she would kill herself," he said.
He told me he needed to get away from the hills and be with "some real people."
"I brought all the food for my mother's party, and all she did was insult me," he complained, to the point of self-pity.
The affirmations guy (IOT, remember?) announced that he "would ejaculate on my head," because I rudely refused to think of him when I ejaculate.
Affirmations had led him to ejaculations. Possibly this was some cult belief.
No one said anything.
Then Eyler, began packing up, with his dog, and leaving. He got no farther than across the street, where someone was sitting alongside Cody's reading a Bible, probably the last book reader reading on the avenue.
Eyler returned, hastily, saying, "what was I thinking? I don't have anywhere else to go."
He returned in time for the last food drop, at 10:30.
After trying to eat more, the kids, some pointing to full stomachs, turned it down. The deliverer gladly took it back, he told me, to distribute elsewhere in the network.
I asked Eyler again, how long he planned to stay. "Who knows," he mused, smiling, maybe until sunrise; who knows?"
Our South side reporter must have had no where else to go; yet he tore himself away from his new friends around 11:30 a.m. Reach him at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Professor Miasnikov Awarded NSF Grant to Unravel Mysteries of Model Theory and Algebraic Geometry
Dr. Alexei Miasnikov, Director of the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Stevens Institute of Technology, in collaboration with Professor Olga Kharlampovich of Hunter College, has been awarded a grant by the National Science Foundation to continue development of a framework using first-order logic that allows mathematicians to approach previously unsolvable problems. The grant is titled "Collaborative research: model theory and algebraic geometry in groups and algebras, non-standard actions, algorithmic problems." Supported by two separate NSF panels, it will potentially provide insights into several fundamental unsolved problems in group theory and algebra. "The frontier has been widened immensely," says Dr. Miasnikov. "Many answers are now within our reach."
"This prestigious grant is indicative of the strength of theoretical research at Stevens,"says Dr. Michael Bruno, Dean of the Charles V. Schaefer, Jr. School of Engineering and Science."Dr. Miasnikov's groundbreaking work has already created new threads of research, and this grant ensures that it will go even further to transform our understanding of essential mathematical questions."
Most of the fundamental properties of objects that occur in everyday mathematical practice can be described in a very particular, stripped down, but universal language called first-order logic. This powerful language is used in philosophy, linguistics, and computer science in addition to mathematics. In their previous work, Dr. Miasnikov and Dr. Kharlampovich developed an algorithm to state categorically with first-order theory that certain mathematical objects (in that instance free groups) held a definitive property. This algorithm opened the gates to answering a host of other unsolved problems, such as the first-order theory of natural numbers, which they will confront in their new research project.
Dr. Miasnikov and Dr. Kharlampovich's work extends a legacy of research that stretches back through the ages. Equations have long established a universal language to describe scientific problems in all their variety. As a result of centuries of work, equations and their solutions have become very complex. In order to understand their hidden structure, one must use very elaborate techniques from algebra and geometry. Equations alone can no longer sufficiently describe subtleties of scientific phenomena; new problems require much more powerful means and more powerful languages. Dr. Miasnikov and Dr. Kharlampovich's work empowers the language of first-order logic to formalize and study previously unapproachable mathematical questions.
Their contributions will open more perspectives and avenues for research. "The process of solving certain problems requires the resolution of many smaller questions," says Dr. Miasnikov. "You build a tremendous theoretical procedure or framework that can turn out to be more important than the solution itself, because it can be applied to a myriad of other problems to dismantle formerly daunting mathematical obstacles."
Dr. Miasnikov received the prestigious and competitive Marsden Fund Award in 2010 for the project, "From automatic groups to automatic structures and beyond," an international collaboration with Dr. Bakh Khoussainov from the University of Auckland in New Zealand, and Dr. Olga Kharlampovich from McGill University. Along with Dr. Robert Gilman of the Stevens Department of Mathematical Sciences, he received a grant from the National Security Agency's (NSA) Mathematical Sciences Program to test a novel approach to the Andrews-Curtis conjecture.

Jever (Oldenburg District, Germany)
Jever, a district in Oldenburg, Germany. The Anabaptist movement in Jever is very closely connected with that in adjacent East Friesland. With varying success Lutheranism vied with Zwinglianism for supremacy after 1525. The religious convictions of Count Enno were determined by many motives, least of all by religious motives, and swung back and forth between Luther and Zwingli. Karlstadt's great influence in the region about 1530 led Enno to take decisive steps against the Sacramentists, to expel Karlstadt, and to adopt a Lutheran church order based on the Marburg articles. But the vacillation continued.
Anabaptists from East Friesland and Holland were probably in Jever at a very early period. It is difficult now to determine what was meant by the term Anabaptist; they all agreed, however, on the rejection of infant baptism. At any rate, after the fall of Münster in 1535 and the appearance of Menno Simons they formed the main stock of the Mennonites, which fact shows that there were among them not only extreme spiritualists, but also real Täufer. Because of the confusion of confessions they did not find it too difficult to maintain their position upholding simplicity and apostolic Christianity.
Maria, who was for many years the regent of Jever (1515-1575), advised by Remme of Seedieck, made several attempts to resist the Anabaptists, but never completely gained the upper hand over them. In contrast to the edicts, the measures actually adopted were very mild, expulsion being the highest penalty. The attitude of the city preachers shows the same spirit; the strong conflict of religious movements among the free Frisians did not remain fruitless. The Erklärung der Prediger Jeverlands zum Interim (1549) and the undated and anonymous Confessio Jeverensis contain Anabaptist ideas to a greater degree than do the Augustana and Apologie.
Yet the Anabaptist movement cannot have been strong. The village of Jever was, to be sure, an open town (until 1536) and as such offered transit, but probably no more, since police supervision intentionally gave this aspect emphasis. At any rate, in 1576 only six Anabaptists are mentioned, in part with their residences, at the colloquium held with them and the Calvinists, which resulted in the expulsion of the Anabaptists from Jever.

Parliamentary sitting calendar
Go to the full calendar of events
The Committee Office administers legislative and general purpose standing committee secretariats, select committee secretariats and certain joint statutory committee secretariats. This role includes:
The staffing and administrative structure of the office is outlined in figure 16, including the secretaries of the committee secretariats. It is led by the Clerk Assistant (Committees), who also performs duties as a clerk at the table in the Senate chamber and as a committee secretary.
The full-time equivalent staffing level for the Committee Office in 2009–10 was 59 (62 in 2008–09).
The typical staff structure of a committee secretariat supporting a legislative and general purpose standing committee comprises a committee secretary, a principal research officer, a senior research officer or a research officer, and an executive assistant. Depending on the workload allocated to a committee, additional resources are often provided to assist with administration or with research, analysis and report writing.
The cost of the office in 2009–10 was $8.6 million ($9.0 million in 2008–09). The 2008–09 expenditure was higher because of a significantly greater workload in that year.
The primary cost in operating a committee is staffing, with a typical secretariat costing about $385,000 this year. The other costs relate to administration and include items such as advertising, venue hire, refreshments at hearings, transport (including flights, charter flights and taxis), accommodation for staff at interstate hearings and report printing. The administrative costs of a typical secretariat for the reporting period was about $67,000.
With the approval of the President of the Senate, access to specialist advice was obtained by one committee secretariat during 2009–10, at a cost of $1,600.
Senators' salaries are not included in the costs of committees, as it is not possible to establish the proportion of a senator's salary that should be attributed to committee work. The flight and accommodation costs of senators attending hearings are paid by the Department of Finance and Deregulation.
Hansard and broadcasting services for public hearings are provided by the Department of Parliamentary Services. The office works with the Department of Parliamentary Services to coordinate and enhance the provision of those services.
In 2009–10, committee secretaries provided procedural and administrative advice to committee chairs and members as well as to members of the public, including people seeking information about committee activities or participating in committee inquiries. Higher level advice was also provided by the Clerk, Deputy Clerk, Clerk Assistant (Committees) and Senior Clerk of Committees.
The advice, oral and written, covered a wide variety of procedural issues, such as:
In the year since the Senate adopted a new order for dealing with claims of public interest immunity, there is some evidence that the order has worked reasonably well. However, there appears to be an increasing tendency for witnesses at public and estimates hearings to take questions on notice rather than make a claim of public interest immunity.
In addition to procedural advice, the office provided extensive training on committee operations and procedures to new senators and new staff of senators, as well as to new and ongoing departmental staff.
Committee secretaries met regularly throughout the year to discuss management and procedural issues encountered by committee secretariats, and to discuss issues raised in the Procedural Information Bulletin.
Under standing order 25(10) the chairs of the committees may meet to discuss any matter relating to the operations of the committees. The Chairs' Committee is chaired by the Deputy President. The Clerk Assistant (Committees) is the secretary. During 2009–10, the committee met on two occasions, and considered issues such as the behaviour of the media at committee hearings; 'watermarking' the broadcast footage of Senate committees; and a statistical summary of committee activity in 2009–10.
As was the case in 2008–09, the Senate referred a high number of matters to committees for inquiry in 2009–10.
The Senate has eight pairs of legislation and references committees established pursuant to standing order 25 as permanent committees. Permanent committees continue for the life of a parliament and are re-established at the commencement of each new parliament.
During 2009–10, the Senate referred 130 matters to standing committees, 96 of which were bills or packages of bills. As shown in table 4, the committees tabled 157 reports, excluding reports on estimates, compared to 160 reports in 2008–09.
a Excludes estimates; includes reports on annual reports and other non-bill references.
In 2009–10, bills referred to committees had an average reporting deadline of 41 working days. This compares to an average of 35 working days in 2008–09.
The results in tables 4 and 5 for the past three reporting periods show the range in workloads of Senate committees in the previous parliament (in which the Government held a majority in the Senate) and the current parliament (in which the Government does not hold a majority in the Senate). To gain a better understanding of the fluctuations in workload across parliaments and election cycles, it is necessary to look at the statistical history, as shown in figures 17 and 18.

Text description of figure 17

Text description of figure 18
As shown in table 6, the usual cycle of estimates hearings was conducted during the year, commencing in October 2009 with a week of supplementary hearings for the 2009–10 Budget. A week of additional estimates hearings was held in February 2010. The initial estimates hearings for the 2010–11 Budget took place between 24 May and 4 June 2010.
The requirement to hold an additional day of estimates hearings into Indigenous matters, which affects all the portfolios with budget expenditure or responsibility for Indigenous issues, is now well established and appreciated by senators with an interest in this policy area. In addition, the Finance and Public Administration Legislation Committee reconvened on 17 June 2010 to hold a further hearing into the estimates of the Department of Finance and Deregulation in relation to government advertising.
a Main hearings.
b Supplementary hearings.
Overall, the 2009–10 budget cycle estimates involved 698 hours of hearings, a slight increase on the 2008–09 budget cycle. Committees prepared and tabled 16 reports on estimates, eight following the additional estimates held in February 2010 and eight after the budget estimates held in May–June 2010.
The activity of committees considering estimates generates considerable administrative effort for committee secretariats. Scheduling the hearings is particularly complex because:
An example of the last point occurred during the budget estimates in May 2010, when the Secretary of the Treasury could only appear before the Economics Legislation Committee on a day on which four other committees were scheduled to hold estimates hearings. As the Standing Orders allow only any four of the eight committees to meet at the same time, agreement was reached for the Finance and Public Administration Legislation Committee to postpone its estimates public hearings on that day until after the Economics Legislation Committee had completed and adjourned its hearing.
In the course of the estimates public hearings, senators place many questions on notice. Secretariats follow up and publish the answers to those questions. Typical numbers of questions placed on notice in the last budget estimates hearings range from 168 questions for the Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade Legislation Committee to 617 questions for the Economics Legislation Committee.
A select committee is an ad hoc committee established by the Senate to inquire into and report on a specific matter or matters. In most cases, a select committee ceases to exist when it presents its final report. Often, select committees also present interim reports.
Five select committees operated during 2009–10. One of those, the Select Committee on the National Broadband Network, presented its final report to the Senate on 17 June 2010 and then ceased to exist.
The Committee Office continues to provide secretariat support for:
During 2009–10, select committees held 109 meetings (public and private), for a total of 309 hours. They received 310 submissions and heard 606 witnesses. The corresponding figures for 2008–09 were 139 meetings (public and private), for a total of 390 hours, 8,620 submissions and 789 witnesses.
Joint committees comprise senators together with members of the House of Representatives. They are established by resolution of each House and, in the case of statutory committees, in accordance with the provisions of the relevant Act.
During 2009–10, the Committee Office supported three statutory joint committees: Corporations and Financial Services, the Australian Crime Commission, and the Australian Commission for Law Enforcement Integrity.
The committees held 84 meetings (public, private and inspections) for a total of 173 hours. They received 389 submissions and heard 184 witnesses. The corresponding figures for 2008–09 were 96 meetings, 148 hours, 392 submissions and 188 witnesses.
Committee members place considerable value on engaging with a broad range of people as they conduct each committee inquiry. Committee secretariats assist committees to achieve this, through a variety of strategies:
Senate committee secretariats supported 934 meetings and hearings during the year, an increase compared with 862 in 2008–09. These statistics include estimates hearings held by committees. A breakdown by location of the committee meetings and hearings in 2009–10 appears in figure 19.
Figure 19 Committee meetings and hearings by location, 2009–10
Text description of figure 19
The Senate Centralised Information Database assists committee secretariats to quickly and accurately handle the large volumes of information used to support committee inquiries. The database includes capacity:
The database was completed in May 2010 and is now used by all standing committee secretariats. It is improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the office by saving staff time, enabling staff to transfer seamlessly between secretariats, and enhancing the office's management of the large numbers of submissions received by committees.
Two innovations foreshadowed in last year's report were implemented in 2009–10:
The office also continues to investigate strategies to support committee inquiries by enhancing accessibility to committee material held on the Senate's website. The committee section of the website attracts substantial interest. As in 2008–09, more than 13 million page views were recorded in 2009–10, indicative of the usefulness of the committee material made available by the office. The content and presentation of committee material on the website will be further developed in 2010–11.
In 2009–10, Committee Office staff also contributed to the department's outcome by:
The office also contributed to the reviews of the committee systems of the parliaments of Victoria and Queensland (including a formal submission by the Clerk of the Senate to the Parliament of Queensland in May 2010).
In both 2009 and 2010, two participants in the Working in the Senate Development Program were attached to various committee secretariats, providing administrative and research support to Senate committee inquiries.
As was the case in 2008–09, the high committee secretariat workloads were the significant feature of 2009–10, particularly the large number of inquiries referred by the Senate (which is covered in the 'Activity levels' section).
The trend of the Senate to set very short reporting timeframes, often referring several bills to a committee for report within a week or a fortnight, has made it difficult for committee secretariats to complete the necessary administrative preparations, including making arrangements for Hansard and broadcasting services and calling for submissions from the public. It also limits the resources available to secretariats to analyse evidence and draft reports.
The full-time equivalent staffing level for the Committee Office in 2009–10 was 59 (62 in 2008–09). The decrease resulted from the reduction in the number of select committees in 2009–10 and the more effective utilisation of staff across the office. Several long-serving officers retired during 2009–10, a significant loss of committee working experience. The positions were filled by a combination of internal promotion and external appointment.
In 2009–10, the office's strategies to effectively manage its workload included:
The principal formal means of evaluating the performance of the Committee Office in supporting Senate committees and certain joint committees is the biennial senators' survey. The last survey was conducted in 2009, with the next one due in 2010–11.
Comments made in the chamber when a committee's report is tabled or debated are another source of evaluation. As in 2008–09, senators were highly positive in their comments, some of which are listed in figure 20. Informal feedback from witnesses also indicated satisfaction with their dealings with secretariat staff.
Figure 20 Senators' comments on Committee Office secretariats, 2009–10
I want to put on record my appreciation to the secretariat and my appreciation for so many people who gave their time to tell us their stories—again reinforcing the value of the committee system in this place. We now have those issues in front of us …

Firstly, I thank the secretariat for the work that they did in preparing the report. It was quite a lengthy period of inquiry and their attention to detail in working with the committee was very much appreciated. I again thank the secretariat and my colleagues on the committee for the work that went into the inquiry.

The election period is likely to reduce the level of committee activity during the next 12 months. The timing and the result of the election will determine committee activity in 2010–11 and beyond.
The key resource that the office provides to committees is its people. In 2010–11, the office will adopt a structured approach to consolidate institutional and procedural knowledge among new and more experienced staff, manage limited resources and enhance the office's technological capability, to ensure that its services to committees remain of the highest order. This will include the implementation of any relevant recommendations arising from the department's structural review.

On yesterday's "Around The Horn," our man Woody Paige acknowledges that the world is watching.
By the way, we've had this idea for a while that we could come up with some pretty funny stuff to say on Paige's chalkboard using PhotoShop, but, honestly, we're really bad at PhotoShop. Anybody out there want to give it a shot?
Oh, also: We're hearing all kinds of rumors that "Cold Pizza" is considering a switch from its current 8 a.m. timeslot to a 10 a.m. timeslot.

Spent the evening at a colleague's birthday party in a private bikers club in a Reykjavik suburb, drinking (water, of course), eating tasty food and playing poker, a strange game which seems to consist mainly of the following:
- Give people some cards
- Put some cards on a table
- Move some bits of plastic around a few times — the bits of plastic are different colours, and make nice sounds if you click them together
- Arrange your plastic into piles and click them together whilst sipping a cocktail (or water, depending on whether or not you are a bodybuilder/Buddhist/bodybuilding Buddhist).
- Do poker with your face (to do: what is this?)
- Intermittently tap the table
- Nonchalantly toss some plastic into the middle of the table, or, if you're hungry, toss your cards towards the dealer and go get some food — this is called folding but DO NOT FOLD THE CARDS it is confusing and not literal
- Repeat 2-5 a few times, then show people your cards. Say some numbers out loud (optional: confused pause), and then one of you has won. Sometimes this is because a card has a bigger number than another, or because of the shape, or because of the picture.
- The winner gets all the plastic, unless they ran out of plastic half way through, in which case they get that much less — use little piles for this purpose.
- Repeat from beginning
Thanks for a great evening everyone :)

Officers in Lawrence Township, Ohio spent the better part of an afternoon chasing a suspect down a rural highway. The suspect, named Java, was clearly unarmed and maintained a low speed while weaving in and out of traffic. He's a horse, of course of course.
What's most amusing in this video is the horse completely owns the police. This is mostly because he's scared and not out of some aggressive, anti-statist, Rage Against The Machine-fueled political statement. Still, if you're going to outrun the cops you could do worse than having a horse outside.
Eventually, Java tired himself out and was apprehended.

Tragedy struck the set of Sylvester Stallone's "The Expendables 2" last night, as an accident left one of the film's stuntmen dead and landed another in the hospital in critical condition.
The crew was shooting a scene on the Ognyanov Dam in Elin Pelin, Bulgaria, 15 miles east of Sofia. The accident happened while the two men were performing a stunt that involved in an explosion in a rubber boat, reported The Sofia Echo.
"It is with great regret that we confirm this unfortunate accident," Nu Image/Millennium Films said in a statement. "Our hearts go out to the families and those on the production affected by this tragedy. The filmmakers are working closely with the authorities in responding to and investigating this accident."
U.S. & World
The names of the men involved are being withheld for the time being out of respect for the families.
The film, a sequel to last summer's surprise hit "The Expendables," stars Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Liam Hemsworth, Terry Crews, Jet Li, Chuck Norris and Jean-Claude Van Damme. It's due to be released Aug. 17, 2012.

Can be prepared in 45 minutes or less.
From northeastern Thailand, som tai is a salad Thais and farangs-the Thai name for foreigners-have come to love. It is traditionally made with grated green (unripe) papaya that is pounded slightly to soften the fibers before being tossed with lime juice, dried shrimp, and chilies. As the availability of green papaya in the United States is limited, we used cucumber and carrot. We also left out the dried shrimp in order to create a more delicate but still delicious dish.
- Yield
- Serves 6
- 1 garlic clove, minced and mashed to a paste
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 1/2 tablespoons Asian fish sauce (preferably naam pla)
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 fresh Thai or serrano chili, or to taste, seeded and minced (wear rubber gloves)
- 2 seedless cucumbers, quartered lengthwise, seeded, and cored
- 1 carrot, shredded coarse
- soft-leafed lettuce for serving
- In a bowl stir together garlic paste, lime juice, fish sauce, sugar, and chili until sugar is dissolved.
- Thinly slice cucumbers crosswise and add to garlic mixture with carrot. Toss salad well. Salad may be made 4 hours ahead and kept chilled, covered, but cucumber will wilt and give off liquid.
- Serve salad in lettuce "cups."

Proposal aims to protect athletes at wealthiest schools
- Rep. Tony C%E1rdenas introduces legislation that would guarantee benefits%2C protections
- It would apply to schools whose athletic departments annually generate at least %2410 million in media rights
- Similar legislation went into effect in California this year
A U.S. congressman on Wednesday introduced legislation that would require colleges with high-revenue sports programs to provide their athletes with a package of benefits, including financial aid when an athletic scholarship is lifted for reasons other than misconduct or academic failure.
Rep. Tony Cárdenas (D-Calif.) has titled his bill the Collegiate Student Athlete Protection Act, and he told USA TODAY Sports on Tuesday night it is aimed at helping athletes "who, in some cases, are left behind and taken advantage of.
O'BANNON CASE:Plaintiffs seek summary judgement against NCAA
"For example when you look at football teams like Alabama who are accused of over-signing, and simply cutting players because they're injured or not as good as they were when they were recruited, these are student-athletes who were promised the opportunity to get a college education and graduate. We need to make sure that they have a better understanding that they're going to complete that relationship. It shouldn't be a situation where you have a kid who has a dream and then all of a sudden because the school gets a new coach or they have players that might be a little bit better than them ... they're just tossed to the side."
The bill has five co-sponsors and marks the second time in less than four months that a House member has unveiled a legislative proposal directed at major-college sports. On Aug. 1, Rep. Charles Dent (R-Penn.) and Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-Ohio) introduced a bill whose provisions include increased due process for NCAA athletic programs accused of misconduct, and making four-year scholarships mandatory for athletes participating in contact/collision sports. Other challenges to the NCAA's system of benefits for college athletes are proceeding in federal courts and at least one state legislature.
"We've not yet had a chance to fully review (Cárdenas') bill to comment specifically on its provisions," NCAA spokeswoman Stacey Osburn told USA TODAY Sports. "More broadly, the NCAA and our members provide more than $2 billion in full or partial scholarships to student-athletes each year and the health and well-being of our student-athletes is our highest priority. We are committed to empowering student-athletes to be successful on the field, in the classroom and in life."
Cárdenas' bill is modeled on a law that took effect in California this year. The legislation would cover athletes in all sports at schools whose athletics departments annually generate at least $10 million in media rights fees on their own and/or from shares of conference and NCAA rights deals.
BCS:How this season can end in apocalypse
That means it would cover nearly every school in the Atlantic Coast, Big 12, Big Ten, Pacific-12 and Southeastern conferences, according to the most recently available revenue data reported to the NCAA by the public schools in those conferences and analyzed by USA TODAY Sports. It also likely would cover Notre Dame, ACC-bound Louisville, Big Ten-bound Rutgers and potentially other schools, depending on how the Education Department – which would be charged with implementation – set the regulations and reporting methods.
Under what would be an amendment to the Higher Education Act of 1965, these schools would have to provide, among other benefits:
-- Institutional financial aid equal to an athletic scholarship if an athlete loses their scholarship due to injury, illness or if an athlete is dismissed from a team while in good academic standing and not in violation of school disciplinary standards. An injured athlete also would be entitled to continued academic support, including tutoring, at the same level received prior to being injured. The institutional aid – including the injured athlete's academic support -- would have to be continued until the athlete has completed a total five academic years or graduated, whichever comes first.
-- As much as a fifth full year of institutional financial aid when an athlete in good academic standing has not graduated but has completed the maximum four years of playing eligibility for a team whose NCAA Graduation Success Rate is less than 70%.
-- Annual baseline concussion testing for every athlete participating in a "contact or collision sport or a limited-contact or impact sport" before they can participate in any contact drills or activities. (The bill from Dent and Beatty includes a similar requirement, and Wednesday morning in Washington they hosted a four-physician panel on the effects of concussions on student-athletes.)
-- Coverage of the costs associated with an injury or illness resulting from sports participation until the athlete has been cleared by a physician, or for not less than two years after an athlete graduates or leaves the school.
An athlete facing the loss or reduction of an athletic scholarship for disciplinary reasons would be entitled to a "formal administrative hearing" and at least one appeal.
If an athlete requested a transfer, the current school would have to grant or deny the request in no more than seven business days.
And at the beginning of each school year, first- and third-year athletes would be required to complete a workshop that would cover topics including the long-term dangers of concussions; financial aid and debt management; and time management.
The money schools would have to spend to comply with these mandates would be required to come exclusively from their media-rights revenues.
"I want to make sure it's clear that I'm not trying to punish small schools. I'm not trying to make something that's unfair," Cárdenas said. "I want to make something that actually is relevant to the universities and colleges that are actually doing very well" financially.
Most of the schools that would be covered by the legislation already provide at least some of the benefits that would be required. In addition, NCAA rules permit Division I schools to offer multi-year athletic scholarships. However, most athletic scholarships are awarded on a one-year basis and school officials, including coaches, decide whether to offer renewals. Decisions to reduce or not renew a scholarship often can be appealed, but the related policies and procedures vary by school.
The NCAA Executive Committee and Division I Board of Directors met recently in Indianapolis to continue the process of creating a new and more flexible governance structure and potentially changes to the current framework of scholarship, which is basically limited to tuition, fees, room, board and books.
Cárdenas said some of the California legislature's experience as it moved toward this year's law informed his thinking about why he needed to move now, rather than waiting for the NCAA's member schools and conferences.
"What happened was (legislators) found that there was a tremendous amount of resistance," Cárdenas said. "There were some schools that said, 'We, as an individual school, we do the right thing anyway. Why do you need a law?' "
Meanwhile, a long-running anti-trust case concerning the use of college athletes' names and likenesses has been granted class-action status by a U.S. district court, opening the prospect of a full-scale challenge to the NCAA's scholarship setup. And in early January, a California State Assembly committee is scheduled to consider a bill that would require all public schools in that state to give five-year scholarships to athletes, and would require schools with at least $20 million in annual athletics media and licensing revenue to cover athletes' full cost of attending school, plus provide a $3,600 stipend.
Cárdenas said he considered adding such provisions to his bill.
"Just like with any legislation I could have gone further, I could have tapered it back," he said. "But on balance I think this a bill that's reasonable and, hopefully, that I can get enough of my colleagues to agree with and that we can pass it through."
The co-sponsors include Charles Rangel (D-NY), Tim Ryan (D-Ohio), Jared Huffman (D-Calif.), Elijah Cummings (D-Md.) and Betty McCollum (D-Minn.).

Saving Mothers and Babies in Haiti
The sound of an unborn baby's heartbeat pulses through the breezy labor ward of University Hospital in Mirebalais, Haiti.
The loud, muffled rhythm is amplified by a machine that monitors fetal heartbeat as the mother's labor progresses. It's one of the things that makes Marlene Damas, a nurse-midwife and manager, glad to be working here in the third decade of her career.
"I can hear her vital signs because there's equipment to identify problems," Damas said. "It wouldn't be the same in another place. In some places all you have is a stethoscope, so you can't hear a change in the patient's condition."
"Staff and stuff"—trained, experienced nurses like Damas, equipped with the tools they need to do their jobs—can save lives in a country that still loses too many women in pregnancy and childbirth. In Haiti, just 25 percent of births in rural areas take place in a health facility, many of which lack adequate resources. An estimated 1 in 285 births will result in a woman's death, a ratio about 16 times higher than in the United States, according to the World Health Organization.
"I like to work with women, because they need help," Damas said. "There's a lot of maternal mortality in Haiti, and I'm working to reduce it."
Damas and the 52 other nursing staff in the University Hospital maternal health ward have participated in extensive trainings since the teaching hospital opened in March 2013. They do hands-on simulations of emergency events, including how to stop post-partum hemorrhage and resuscitate newborns who aren't breathing. They discuss the latest science on maternal health through journal clubs, where they read and discuss medical articles. And they receive supervision as they learn to conduct procedures such as inserting an intrauterine device to prevent pregnancy.
This year, the women's health team is also working with community health workers to train them to identify pregnant women in communities and accompany them to prenatal visits and to deliver. One of the main reasons women don't give birth in hospitals is because of the distance they have to travel, often on foot, Damas says. Community health workers can help overcome that barrier by traveling with patients or helping them stay at the hospital before they're in labor.
Sometimes Damas receives women on the ward who delivered at home and encountered a problem, and sometimes it's too late for her team to help. That motivates her to keep working, she says, and she's excited to see that the quality of care provided at the hospital is encouraging many patients to seek care there.
"This hospital provides great service," Damas said. "It's free, so people come from everywhere to receive care from qualified people who are competent and have resources."
University Hospital delivers more than 200 babies each month, and serves as a referral center for smaller PIH-supported facilities around the Central Plateau. When women are expected to have complications, or do during normal labor, they are transferred to University Hospital for the complex care staff can provide. For that reason, the hospital has a high rate of cesarean deliveries—about 20 to 25 percent of deliveries over the last year. In fact, the hospital has one operating room devoted to C-sections—to make sure the procedure is available around the clock when medically necessary.

Next to the labor and delivery ward, Adonis Francoe rested with other women and their babies in the post-partum ward. Francoe, who had her second baby by C-section, also works in the hospital's community health department and travels to communities to discuss health issues and describe the services available at the hospital. Her first child was born at the small community hospital in Mirebalais, which University Hospital replaced—and it was a much different experience.
"I'm more comfortable here. There's food and things like a bed for the baby," she said. Francoe is also glad for the economic opportunities the hospital offers, including her job, which helps her provide for her growing family. "The hospital is great because it gives jobs. Before you had to go far to find work. This is a lot better for the community."

Tofu Splurge: Spinach and Mushroom Quiche
Let's pretend I didn't just trash-talk myself publicly.
I love soy, but my body can only handle so much before it starts to bother me. Tofu is one of my favorite foods, so when I do eat it, I try to make it as tasty as possible and I mindfully enjoy every single bite. Last night's tofu splurge was this creamy and flavorful Spinach-Mushroom Quiche via 101 Cookbooks!
Get a little closer, don't be shy...
The recipe was supposed so be very involved and time consuming, but I failed to read that vital piece of information until I was ready to start cooking at my regular dinner-cooking time! Dummy! To save time, I toasted the oats and seeds for the crust on a skillet instead of the oven, and I used frozen spinach. Also, I made the quiche in (four) little tartlet pans instead of one big pie dish to reduce baking time. I baked them for 40 minutes, but that was too long because the crust was a bit overbaked. If you decide to make little ones, you might want to try 30 or 35 minutes instead. It took me an hour and a half from start to finish, so the shortcuts paid off! The tofu filling was delicious! How can you go wrong with tofu, mushrooms, and spinach? And how can you not love something that is made with a speedy herb and garlic infused olive oil? Go check out the recipe! Thank you for sharing, Heidi!
Up close and personal
Moving on to the couch potato business. Most of my Netflix finds are TV shows instead of movies. I love watching something that ends with a cliffhanger, and then just click "next episode" right away. Waiting for a whole week to see what happens next? No, thanks! Commercial breaks? Ha! I laugh at commercial breaks. One of my favorite cliffhanger-filled TV shows of all time is Alias. (Hi, Sal!) Jennifer Garner is so badass! The colorful wigs, the awesome outfits, the fancy accents, the high-energy fights - it's all so super cool! Papa Bristow (Victor Garber) is probably the coolest father on TV ever! Ever, I'm telling you! It did get a bit goofy after the first few seasons, but that's OK, at least it actually had an ending. Don't you hate it when they cancel shows without an ending? Grrr!!

I love the way the texture of your quiche looks. And you know, sometimes shortcuts are the difference between making and not making a dish. It pays to have a bag of already washed and chopped spinach in the freezer!ReplyDelete
yum, and may I add, yum - it looks so moist and lovely. Give me a slice of that, some potato salad and greens, and I'd be in heaven!ReplyDelete
Your quiche looks so perfect, I'd happily take a slice or two!ReplyDelete
I do love quiche so much. That might be the prettiest quiche I've ever seen.ReplyDelete
BAHAHA I was reading this thinking, I'm sure River and I have discussed our love of Alias before! I love that show so much. I think it's time for another rewatch!ReplyDelete
That quiche looks so awesome, I'm gonna bookmark the recipe.
That is the most perfect looking quiche I ever saw! I also posted about tofu today. Tofu for president. But no more tummy troubles!ReplyDelete
I agree with Mihl! I've never seen a better looking quiche in my life. And the duck picture today is so very sweet.ReplyDelete

I could totally go for a big honkin' slice of that right now.ReplyDelete
I never watched Alias before but I have no idea why, I'm going to have to invest in Netflicks.
I hear you on the soy thing, hun! And as for VeganMoFo and not quitting - YOU CAN DO IT! I believe in you :DReplyDelete
Mmmm quiche, I really, really miss eating the quiche my mum used to make. Yours looks amazing!Replies
Oh and how could I forget about Curly, face-to-tail-squishing Curly!Delete
Thanks, Mandee! I have enough material for another week, so hopefully I'll make it. Yesterday's post was postponed until today because the video I was making took me all day! Your posts always seem so effortlessly done!Delete
Quiche is so good. Have you tried white bean quiche instead of tofu? Might not be quite the same, but worth a shot!
Curly sure loves his tail. He grooms it several times a day - gotta keep those tail feathers shiny and curly!
