It was another great Netroots Nation conference in Minneapolis, and like many of you, I'm still digesting. As someone a little bit responsible for sending folks there (three folks won a free registration at our last big event!) it's important to do a little public evaluation.
1. Netroots Nation is a labor event, full stop. If twelve of the top eighteen sponsors were corporations, it would be a corporate event. But it was labor: AFL-CIO, Working America, Change to Win, SEIU, UFT, NEA, UFCW, even the firefighters, who did seem a little bit like fish out of water*. So on behalf of the netroots, THANK YOU.
2. Netroots Nation is home to a lot of self-organized liberals and Democrats who often represent a kind of loyal opposition to whatever "the" Democrats are up to in DC. It makes sense that Labor, that poor bride who keeps getting stranded at the altar while her groom is off having sex with corporations in the dressing room, should make common cause with us. But we can still ask: just how serious is labor about dating the netroots, as opposed to purchasing some seasonal influence? I want unions to love us for our free-wheeling exuberance, critical thinking and free-agent empowerment. Not just for political influence that on rare occasions result in some electoral or electoral victory.
3. At the labor strategy session, I heard it explained that some years ago, unions invested big in organizing – but were unable to staunch the loss of members, especially in the private sector. So they went big on political spending, going all out for Democratic victories in hopes of passing EFCA.
Or at least getting a little bit of love now and then. Right now is an interesting moment: labor is organizing, but not focused on new member organizing. Labor is doing politics, but not necessarily in close cooperation with the official Democrats. Is this a fully articulated strategy we can learn from and follow, or evidence that labor strategists are figuring things out as we
go along? (It can't be just Stephen Lerner talking openly about labor strategy these days, right?)
4. This goes hand in hand with the excellent session about Wisconsin. One of AFSCME's senior political strategists said something like "as a result of Wisconsin, we really understand the importance of new media. And over the next year, you'll see that manifested in how we do things." What I should have asked as a follow up question is "What kind of changes will we be seeing? What new combination of job descriptions, training, new hires, shifting budgets and consultant contracts can we look forward to?"
5. Labor had many tables/booths in display. I visited all of them and found no job descriptions related to online organizing or new media campaigning. That said, I know from UnionJobs.com that many unions ARE trying to fill those jobs. Next year, let's make sure that the booths of unions that are hiring staff have some information about their job openings. It's the perfect captive audience for recruitment.
6. Where is the labor netroots? Union members who blog, as opposed to a) bloggers who enjoy labor support, and b) staff at unions who blog? Some members of teachers unions who blog were in attendance and on (really good) panels but overall there were not many rank and file members who blog or use social media at the conference. I imagine that lack of funds to attend the conference might be the reason why. NN does a great job of offering scholarships but it would be a good idea for more of the unions that send staff to NN to also send their union members who blog.
7. Netroots Nation staff did what they could to promote attendance among Minneapolis and Minnesota union locals. That said, I spoke to a handful of union members in attendance who came because they asked/demanded to go, but who never saw anything from their International about Netroots Nation. Part of me wonders if a $10k sponsorship and the expense of staffing a booth in the exhibition hall wouldn't have been better served by sending an additional 10-15 union members to attend the training sessions (organized by Democracy for America) and schmoozing with union staff from across the country.
The next conference will be held in Providence, RI, easy traveling distance from New York, Boston and Philadelphia, all big union cities. So will we see a dozen locals send two people each from those areas? And staff from 5-6 state labor federations? And Labor Councils? Maybe consultants from the strategic media firms that (sometimes) pretend to be experts in online communications? Let's not leave that up to the powers that be.
If you think your union should be doing better at online organizing, consider using this as your check list for promoting more, and more effective labor participation at Netroots Nation:
- Request that your local's magazine/newspaper/website features a story about unions at Netroots Nation.
- If your International was a sponsor in 2011, remind them to put something in about the upcoming conference in Providence next spring.
- Sign up now, pay the super-inexpensive $195 early bird registration fee. If your union won't pay your way, file for the vacation days now – and signal your boss about the importance of Netroots Nation.
- Ask your union to purchase a block of tickets now, even before it's clear who would actually go.
- Let's ask Netroots Nation to post data about how many trade unionists attended, and make it a goal to exceed that number in 2012.
- Start thinking now about sessions that appeal to a labor audience in particular. Not just on the issues, but training relevant to your own work as a trade unionist. Why not sessions on new member organizing, blogging for union staff/members, or setting the labor agenda from below?
Got any other bright ideas? Let's hear 'em. If you hear of any posts about labor at Netroots Nation – please let me know or link below.

Helping kids make college decisions
When I was in high school, I got a notice one day that told me to go see the guidance counselor. Every kid got one appointment with the counselor, to talk about college. When I walked into Mrs. Westfield's office, she started talking right away. "You can't get into an Ivy, but you could apply at Smith, Tufts, or Middlebury," she said. I sat down, stunned. I wondered "Is this lady going to ask me what I'm interested in?"
She did not. "Your sister is at Dartmouth, but you don't care about your grades, I can see," Mrs. Westfield went on. My cheeks burned. I wanted to walk out, but enough vestigial respect-for-authority juice still flowed in my veins in eleventh grade that I didn't. I sat and listened as Mrs. Westfield prattled on about the schools I might get into if I worked really hard on my essays, and got great references. Two months later, I bailed on high school a year early and went to conservatory, where I'd been headed all along.
College decision-making is complicated, because embedded in the which-college? decision are layers and layers of significance that are seldom addressed by the standard college-choice algorithms and tools. Here are just a few of the layers of sedimentary meaning that figure into a kid's decision (or a parent's decision on a kid's behalf) about where to go after high school: Read more…

India will provide helicopters to war- torn Afghanistan "very soon" External Affairs Minister Salman Khurshid said today, months after President Hamid Karzai sought lethal weapons from the country.
"We are giving them helicopters and we will be supplying them very soon," Mr Khurshid told reporters who accompanied him on a day-long visit to Kandahar, where he inaugurated an agricultural university built with Indian aid.
"We have also been giving them some logistical support and we hopefully will be able to upgrade and refurbish their transport aircraft," he said.
Mr Khurshid did not specify the number or type of helicopters to be provided to Afghanistan.
Mr Karzai had sought military aid and equipment from India during a visit to New Delhi in December.
"Afghanistan is very special and uptil now wherever they felt they need (something), we have been giving them," Mr Khurshid said.
"I think it is consistent with our approach - building capacity,providing training. That seems to be going well. Ultimately it is what we mutually agree and is within our capacity to supply."
India is "not reluctant" about assisting Afghanistan as it has a very clear policy the world over to build capacity, Mr Khurshid said.
"We are not in the game of giving people large scale equipment which is lethal and so on," he said.
Earlier in Kandahar, Mr Karzai told journalists from India he was not dissatisfied with India's response to his request to supply military equipment to strengthen Afghan security forces.
"I am not disappointed. I am rather happy and grateful to India for its assistance," he said. "India's response has been good."
Mr Khurshid, speaking after he jointly inaugurated the Afghan National Agricultural Sciences and Technology University (ANASTU) in Kandahar with Karzai, said India will continue to assist the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF).
The ANSF will play an important role in "this year of political and security transition" and the world community must fulfill its pledges to rebuild the Afghan National Army and Afghan National Police he said. Afghanistan is set to hold presidential polls on April 5 ahead of the US troop drawdown later this year.

|Condition or disease
|Biological: Autologous MSCs transplantation
|Phase 1
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a worldwide epidemic disease that the global prevalence of it was estimated to be approximately 210 million individuals and accounting for more than three million deaths annually. And currently, it is the fifth chief cause of death in the United State of America. COPD is characterized by chronic, irreversible inflammation of the airways and has two pathologic features, emphysema and bronchiolitis.
The most relevant feature in the lung emphysema is airflow limitation, resulting from the loss of alveolar wall and enlargement of alveolar space distal to the terminal bronchiole. Cigarette and air pollution are the most major factors for developing COPD. Unfortunately, aside from supplemental domiciliary oxygen for the small number of patients who demonstrate resting arterial hypoxemia and smoking cessation for continued smokers, there are no interventions that have been unequivocally shown to prolong survival in patients with COPD. In the preprocessing phase, patients will underwent a complete evaluation of the pulmonary function test with spirometer to measure the FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC, cardiac evaluation (clinical examination, six minute walk test, echocardiography TTE(transthoracic echocardiography ), and electrocardiography),chest X-ray, chest computed tomography scan (helical/high resolution),o2 saturation by oximeter, as well as routine laboratory tests (blood gas, urinalysis, coagulation, complete blood count (CBC), blood urea nitrogen, fasting glucose, creatinine, AST(aspartate aminotransferase), ALT(alanine aminotransferase), C-reactive protein, serology for hepatitis B and C, antihuman immunodeficiency virus, and treponemal test for syphilis (FTA-ABS)). The Dyspnea Scale Score test, modified according to the British MMRC, was also conducted, according to Mahler and Wells and Curley.And quality of life measures will assess according to SF-36(Medical Outcomes Study 36-Items Short-Form Health Survey) questioner.
Patients will taken to the operating room, placed in a prone position, and administer a spinal anesthesia. Approximately, 120 mL of bone marrow will aspirated from each puncture and after preparation about 60 million autologous MSCs will transplant by bronchoscopy into the endobronchial of these patients.

1st U2 showThis was the first U2 show I went to. I missed the spring shows in Houston because I was in Europe. What I remember is the woman in front of me on the floor seats slept through the concert because she was high on crack cocaine. Bono gave his aparthied speech during Silver and Gold and the band played Spanish Eyes. The band performed with energy that seems to take a step up each tour.

Also, fits nicely with the bizarre pig Colin who said wee wee wee all the way home.

Campus History
Rosary College of Commerce and Arts was established by the Archdiocese of Goa and Daman in June 1990. The College owes its inception to the magnanimous initiative of late Rev. Can. Jose Roberto Vaz, who was then the Parish Priest of Rosary Church. The College is managed by the Diocesan Society of Education and is a minority institution under article 30 (1) of the Indian Constitution.
Rosary College has been built by the Fabrica of Nossa Senhora do Rosario, Navelim, almost entirely with the proceeds of the sale of properties belonging to the Fabrica, Confraria de Nossa Senhora do Rosario and Confraria do Santissimo Sacramento.
The College has made strident progress in the last 29 years and very recently a new, fully independent and self-sufficient wing has been constructed due to the initiative of the present Principal Rev. Dr. Simao R. Diniz. The new wing, which became fully functional from the academic year 2012-13, was constructed on account of a gamut of new courses introduced to keep pace with the burgeoning requirements of the industry.
Rosary College of Commerce and Arts has helped many students live their dreams! Right from its genesis, Rosary College has made quantum leaps in progress whether it is the recent re-accreditation with an A-grade with a CG PA of 3.29 on a 4-point scale by NAAC, the quality of education imparted, the professional success of its alumni or the fact that Rosary College was the Goa University Sports Champion College for three years in succession. Rosary College has constantly endeavoured to reach the acme against all odds and this is what positions it in a league of its own and makes it a true harbinger of positive change in society!
Vision and Mission
Our Vision : An educative community marked by justice, co-operation and integrity.
Our Mission: To empower young women and men, especially the underpriviledged as responsive citizens through holistic education.
Our Objectives
- To sensitize our students to the needs of the community with a special focus on minority and underpriviledged sections of the society.
- To empower students with the necessary skills so as to enable them to play an active role in national development and to become globally competent.
- To strengthen the secular, democratic and non-discriminative spirit among the students through value-based education.
- To use modern technology for effective teaching and learning.
Significance of the Emblem
This is an adaptation of an ancient symbol prevailing in India. This symbol reached Sri Lanka (2nd – 3rd Century), Chansen and Dvaravati in Thailand and OC EO in Ancient Cambodia. According to Robert S. Wicks (1999) independent waves of Indian influence presumably penetrated Southeast Asia at different rates and were absorbed unevenly from one region to another. Indian elements were selected, absorbed and altered accordingly to the needs and beliefs of local inhabitants.
This is an ever-flowing vase with two budding tendrils known as Vase of plenty (Purnagatha). The purnaghata motif has a long history in Indian art. The purnaghata is an emblem of fruitfulness and plenty. The tendrils represent growth. This symbol has been adapted from a 6th – 7th century silver medal (presently displayed at National Museum, Bangkok) discovered in a reliquary deposit found beneath of ruins of a chedi (stupa) at Nakhorn Pathom in 1943, known earlier as Dvaravati which is situated in the central part of present day Thailand. The same symbol has been also found on coins, toilet trays and ivory combs. In order to make a medal or coin a small bead of pre-weighed silver was pounded flat and it was placed between dies and stamped.
The Latin quotation "UT VITAM HABEANT ET ABUNDANTIUS HABEANT" is from John 10, 10 (They may have life and have it to the full). Rosary College is an ever-flowing vase of plenty, offering an educative environment to its students, staff and faculty. It offers an integral education far from the myopic goal of obtaining a mere degree. Its constituents should grow, bloom and blossom taking advantage of the abundance that is offered and live their lives to the full. The curvature of the circle has been kept intact as in the original medal to indicate our journey towards perfection.

All News Releases By Date
Monterey County awarded $200,000 in Brownfields Grants
Release Date: 05/28/2014
Contact Information: Rusty Harris-Bishop, email@example.com (415) 972-3140
(5/28/2014) SAN FRANCISCO - The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced today that Monterey County will be one of 171 communities nationwide receiving brownfields funding to clean and redevelop contaminated properties, boost local economies and leverage jobs while protecting public health and the environment.
The FY14 Brownfields Assessment, Revolving Loan Fund, and Cleanup (ARC) grants will give communities and businesses a chance to return economic stability to under-served and economically disadvantaged neighborhoods through the assessment and clean-up of abandoned industrial and commercial properties, places where environmental cleanups and new jobs are most needed.
"Brownfields funding allows communities to innovate new ways to retrofit formerly polluted, unused sites for sustainable new uses," Jared Blumenfeld, EPA's Regional Administrator for the Pacific Southwest. "This funding will not only clean up contaminated property, but engage the community in redeveloping the property for the public's benefit."
The grant to the County will be used to clean up the former San Lucas Branch Library on Teresa Street in San Lucas. The site, used from the 1940s until 2010 as a library, then as office space for the San Lucas County Water District, is currently vacant and contaminated with organic and inorganic contaminants. Once cleaned up, the site will once again be developed as a library and built to the LEED Silver green building standard.
A total of approximately $23.5 million is going to communities that have been impacted by plant closures. Other selected recipients include tribes and communities in 44 states across the country; and at least 50 of the grants are going to Housing and Urban Development – Department of Transportation – Environmental Protection Agency grant recipient communities.
Since the inception of the EPA's Brownfields program in 1995, cumulative brownfield program investments have leveraged more than $21 billion from a variety of public and private sources for cleanup and redevelopment activities. This equates to an average of $17.79 leveraged per EPA brownfield dollar expended. These investments have resulted in approximately 93,000 jobs nationwide. These projects demonstrate the positive impact a small investment of federal brownfields funding can have on community revitalization through leveraging jobs, producing clean energy, and providing recreation opportunities for surrounding neighborhoods. EPA's Brownfields Program empowers states, communities, and other stakeholders to work together to prevent, assess, safely clean up, and sustainably reuse brownfields sites.

Jenna Fischer has more to celebrate than usual this Fourth of July weekend – she's married.
"The Office" star wed writer Lee Kirk on Saturday, July 3, UsMagazine.com reported.
While details on the nuptials are scant, fellow "Office" star Rainn Wilson aka Dwight Schrute was reportedly among those in attendance.
U.S. & World
"Went to the most beautiful wedding I've ever experienced," Wilson tweeted. "Total Love, Jenna Fischer & Lee Kirk!"
It's unclear if John Krasinski, the actor who plays Fisher's onscreen hubby Jim Halpert on the NBC sitcom, also attended.
Fischer and Kirk began dating in January 2008 and became engaged during a European vacation last summer, according to Us.
This will be Kirk's first marriage and Fisher's second time down the aisle.
Fischer and director James Gunn divorced in July 2007.

The Grand Prix Petit Navire has kept all its promises for the staging of the first official European Course Racing Championships, even when there was no more racing on the final day of the competition due to lack of wind.
After 12 rounds of racing, Bruno Sroka and Fabienne D'Ortoli (both France) are the new Champions of Europe.Flawless organization, great race management, many rounds raced, and an adaption of the new ISAF Racing Rules of Sailing made this a great event for the 97 competitors from all over Europe.
Bruno Sroka, European Champion 2009:
"It was not easy but the work paid off. It has been three months with Paulo (Editor's note: Paulo Rista: Designer) we try to develop the hardware. This Grand Prix was a test-scale facing a big competition. In the end, our choices are validated by comparison with other riders who sailed with conventional boards. (Editor's note: Marc Blanc, second, the main opponent of Bruno was sailing on it with a foil). I am really happy and if our work helps to change the kite, it's great!. I'm really happy because this is a big personal and team with Paulo, and the title is a reward for our work."
Fabienne D'Ortoli, European Champion 2009:
"I'm glad because I do not really expect to finish first, especially with the presence of Steph Bridge (Editor's note: PKRA Tour Champion 2008). It was really hot between Steph, Caroline Adrien and me, all rounds ended a few meters of each other. But it was a great edition, with great management."

Sept. 30 has come and gone, meaning "Bloodbath Arena," the multiplayer DLC due to those who preordered Dead Island (and those willing to pay $10 after the fact) is officially delayed. It
Originally, the game's publisher said it would be out later in September. Subsequent comments to Kotaku suggested Techland was more focused on fixing the main game with a patch than supplying pre-order bonuses. A post on Techland's Facebook page says they expect an announcement of a new date in the next week.

|Geotechnical data are one of the most prevalent data types in civil engineering projects. The majority of the civil engineering projects that are in use today are designed using site-specific geotechnical data. ❧ The usage of geotechnical data is not limited to construction projects. This data is used in a wide range of applications, including seismic hazard analysis, planning and zoning studies, risk analysis and other infrastructure development projects. Demand for geotechnical data in these types of applications has increased in the past few decades, due to proliferation of geographic information systems (GIS) and a variety of applications that take advantage of GIS and spatial data. ❧ Considering the widespread collection and usage of geotechnical data in various disciplines, one might expect that data are readily available for most developed areas. However, unlike other types of spatial data that are available in spatial data infrastructures (SDI), geotechnical data is often managed using traditional and ineffective methods. Consequently, for a lot of projects it is difficult to find and acquire these data. This issue is frequently encountered in civil engineering projects, and more importantly, in large-scale multi-disciplinary studies that need large volumes of geotechnical data. ❧ In order to address this problem, the current methods used for management, archiving and distribution of geotechnical data need to be improved upon. The most viable solution is to leverage the existing information technology infrastructure and adopt methods that are already in use for other types of spatial data. These technologies include geography markup language (GML), spatial databases and Web services developed for spatial data exchange. ❧ Following this concept, in the subject dissertation development of a spatial data model for geotechnical data is discussed. The discussion includes an overview of the geotechnical data collection, processing and current methods used to archive and exchange data. The proprietary software and data formats that are used for geotechnical data exchange, including the association of geotechnical and geoenvironmental specialists (AGS) data format, are covered in this review. In addition, the current state of information technology for other types of spatial data is evaluated. This background study includes spatial databases, spatial data infrastructures and various standards that are adopted by the industry and regulating agencies for management and dissemination of spatial data. ❧ Based on this framework, a data model is proposed for integration of geotechnical data in SDIs. This data model uses the terminology of the AGS geotechnical data exchange format and combines it with a GML-conformant schema. GML is the industry-standard markup language for modeling spatial data for use in SDIs. ❧ The developed data model is compared with similar proposals from other research groups. The functionality of the data group is verified using several examples involving visualizing the geotechnical data and using it for analyses such as site response analysis and liquefaction hazard assessment. A case study is presented that demonstrates the potential benefits of these analysis scenarios in real-world studies. ❧ Finally, the achievements of the dissertation are summarized and suggestions are made in order to improve the results of the current study. Also, some related research topics are suggested to continue and further expand the concepts presented in this dissertation.

text: A new report shows the number of E85 ethanol pumps in the U.S. has grown nearly 28% in the past year, surpassing the 1,800 mark with 1,693 available for public use. The states with the most E85 pumps are, as you'd expect, in the corn belt, including Minnesota, Illinois and Missouri. Just don't expect to find them in every corner of the country: Despite the growth in E85 availability, seven states still don't have any E85 pumps, including Alaska. Considering E85 expansion is part of our current national energy policy, it makes us wonder if Governor Palin should revise her favorite chant to "distill, baby, distill." But, of course, the problem with ethanol remains one of economics rather than availability. E85 costs about 18% less nationwide than a gallon of gasoline despite containing 23-28% less energy. When the cost to grow, process, distill and transport that ethanol is taken into account, the math just doesn't work out in favor of corn likker . But we are glad our farmer friends are finally able to afford those new Sea Rays. [Green Car Congress; Image Credit: EPA]

Necrotic Ring Spot
Necrotic Ring Spot
What is Necrotic Ring Spot?
A troublesome disease that infects lawns across TN
This disease is a parasitic form of plant life called fungi. Fungi live in the soil, thatch and dead leaves all year round. These fungi feed off the grass by drawing nutrients from it.
The disease spreads throughout the lawn in the form of spores. Wind, air, water, and humans spread these spores. (spores are minute reproductive cells) The disease may occur from year to year depending on environmental and cultural conditions.
The disease may be caused by improper mowing and watering. Discuss maintenance procedures with your Knoxville, TN Weed Man. If the lawn is put under stress the disease may occur.
The disease takes the form of perfectly shaped rings of yellowed out grass with healthy grass growing within the ring.
The grass blades appear straw yellow and die from the tip down.
As a result of its appearance, the disease is also referred to as "frog-eye".
The disease first attacks very early in the season and becomes especially visible during warm weather.
Necrotic Ring usually attacks sodded lawns but may also attack seeded lawns in both sun and shade.
Necrotic Ring is a very difficult disease to control.
When the disease first occurs rings may be dug out with a shovel to rid the soil of the disease spores. Remove the grass and soil to a depth of 6 to 8 inches (15-20 cm). Wash the shovel before using it again.
Rake the area open; fill in the hole with some potting soil to create a seed bed.
Overseed the area with a perennial ryegrass seed mixture and rake the area lightly. Step on the area lightly to ensure good seed-soil contact. Keep the seed bed moist for at least 21 days.
If the area becomes so infected that removing the rings becomes unreasonable, correct maintenance practices must be used to control the problem.
First and foremost, prevent your lawn from becoming droughty. A lawn requires 1 to 11/2 inches (3-4 cm) of water weekly. According to recent theories a lawn should receive light, frequent watering to control Necrotic Ring. WATER SHOULD NOT BE APPLIED AT NIGHT. Water laying on grass plants overnight encourages disease to spread in the water droplets.
Mow your lawn frequently to a desirable height of 2 to 21/2 inches (5-6 cm) with a razor sharp blade.
Promoting a healthy lawn is the key to preventing Necrotic Ring from appearing. Have your Knoxville, TN Weed Man fertilize your lawn and advise you on correct maintenance practices to ensure a healthy disease free lawn. Fungicides are not an economical form of control. They are regarded only as a temporary control.
Fungicides only control Necrotic Ring until heavy rains wash the fungicide off the grass blade. Fungicide applications would have to be done every 10-14 days all season long and are very expensive. Weed Man Knoxville, TN strongly advises against the use of fungicides. Cultural control is superior and more effective.

text: Read here from NFL.com. As an out of control, not objective supporter of Bishops for the past 3 years, I'm getting…emotional. Just kidding. But he deserves this big-time and his play has, as I suspected it would, spoken for itself. The guy will soon rank right behind Matthews at LB for the Pack – if he doesn't already.
