Smaller Fires Near Georgia Blaze Expected to Be Examined
According to an article published in the local Georgia paper the Atlanta Journal Constitution, has stated that firefighters today have asked for arson experts to examine 3 smaller fires near a large Georgia blaze that has burned for the past two weeks. The Georgia Forestry Commission decided the blazes appeared suspicious enough to warrant further investigation, as it seemed they could not have been started naturally as a result of the larger fire. The larger blaze has been a presence over the past two weeks, burning over 125 square feet of forest and swamplands, and destroying over 20 homes. By Monday morning the fire was over 60 percent contained, with firefighters achieving more success throughout the day. Schools were closed last week but reopened today. Families evacuated the areas where more fires have broken out.
Despite being an article by a local paper near the event intended for a local audience, it seems to have a national appeal because it doesn't get too caught up in specifics of location, and describes things in a way that a national audience can understand, while more than likely providing more information than your average wire service article about the incident. Officials from the Georgia Forest COmmission are quoted early on about the action their taking, and this part of the article seems to only last for about 4 graphs before the rest of the article takes a focus on the larger blaze and the damage it has caused over the past weeks. It doesn't assume that people have been following the event too closely, and gives some rudimentary statistics about the situation that help put it into perspective. Two different Georgia Forestry Commission spokespeople are directly quoted.
The Associated Press coverage of the event published in the Washington Post contains all information from the article in the Atlanta Journal Constitution, but trims out some of the stuff that might be less necessary, resulting in a more concise article. One of the same forestry spokespeople is also quoted, with the same quote used. It suits the story well and would serve as a nice means of getting the information out to a wider audience without overburdening them with information.
I prefer the Atlanta Journal Constitution article because it seems to be just as readable, but gives more information and context as to what the region is going through right now. The Associated Press article would certainly suffice, but it doesn't mention anything about the idea of potential new, intentional fires that the Atlanta article does. There is also a lot more detailed information about the extent of the fires, which I feel is important to understand the story. They're both fine for what they're meant to do.

Westmoreland County Man Sentenced To Prison For Gun Offense
PITTSBURGH, Pa. - Acting United States Attorney Robert S. Cessar announced today, March 26, 2010, that Brian Stephen Kudalis, a resident of Yukon, Pennsylvania, has been sentenced in federal court in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to 33 months imprisonment followed by three years of supervised release on his conviction of one count of violating federal firearms laws.
Chief United States District Judge Gary L. Lancaster imposed the sentence on Kudalis, age 38.
According to information presented to the court by Assistant United States Attorney Margaret E. Picking, that on May 29, 2008, Kudalis, a drifter, converted a semi-automatic AR-15 rifle to fire on fully-automatic, by furnishing a "lightning link" to an undercover law enforcement officer for $130.00. The "lightning link" qualifies as a machine gun under federal law.
Mr. Cessar commended the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Pennsylvania State Police for the investigation leading to the successful prosecution of Kudalis.
Protect yourself from fraud, and report suspected cases of financial fraud to local law enforcement.

Ellen Grossman: Jay-Z didn't know who he was riding next to on the subway either
Jay-Z might have humbly answered one old woman's "are you famous" question while riding the subway to one of his Brooklyn shows in October, but he should have asked her the same thing. A video of the chance encounter has made its way around the Internet and introduced the world to a sweet old woman named "Ellen," but it turns out that the "Ellen" he met is actually New York artist Ellen Grossman.
Though she's nowhere near as famous as Jay-Z is, Grossman has made something of a name for herself creating drawings and sculptures in response to objects like satellite photos, topographic maps and astronomy. Though the Brooklyn-born woman admits that art doesn't really support her anymore, her professional website reveals she received a grant last year and also had her work displayed in various exhibitions.
Grossman has opened up about the run-in with Jay-Z in an interview with The Washington Post. She explains that she read up on Jay-Z after she met him and learned "how famous" the performer actually is.
"I've become much more aware of what he's done and who he is," says Grossman. "And as I checked him out, I realized, how embarrassing that I didn't know who he was! There were all these photographers and a crowd of happy people around him, and security people. So it sort of dawned on me as I was looking around that he was someone famous."

Running to reforest: communities, NGOs work to save Ugandan reserve in the midst of massive deforestationBenon Herbert Oluka, mongabay.com correspondent
August 21, 2014
Ugandan forest managers stress the importance of public support and participation in conservation efforts
The maiden 10-kilometer run (with a five-kilometer option for those who'd rather run a bit less) is named '"Run for Nature" and will take place on September 7, 2014. Organizers say they expect to raise at least 20 million Uganda shillings (about $7,800) from participation fees.
Bugoma Forest Reserve (circled) is bordered by intense deforestation. Between 2001-2013, some areas immediately surrounding the reserve lost upwards of 50 percent of their forest cover, according to data from Global Forest Watch. Map courtesy of Global Forest Watch. Click to enlarge.
Constantino Tessarin, the coordinator of the Bugoma forest conservation campaign, said the proceeds from the run will be invested in "the first reforestation exercise of Bugoma central forest reserve after many years in which no such exercise took place."
"We intend to invest in reforesting degraded areas by planting indigenous trees and important species which are so much needed in the ecosystem to sustain the chimpanzee population and other animals," he said.
At a press conference in Kampala about the event, Tessarin said the idea was born in February, after a public lecture at Kyambogo University in Kampala that revealed the extent of the degradation, illegal logging and deforestation taking place in Bugoma forest.
"We decided to work together to take action against all this destruction and because we feel that the private sector and the civil society can play a vital role in helping forest conservation," he said. "Bugoma forest conservation campaign decided to make steps in different directions: promoting awareness about forest conservation with public events; working on research and preparation of a long term conservation project for the forest and the surrounding communities; planning eco-tourism development to improve on conservation and job creation in the area."

Organizers of the run, which has been endorsed by National Forestry Authority (NFA) of Uganda, include the Kyambogo University Environmental Management Association (KUEMA), Uganda Wildlife Society, Chimpanzee Sanctuary and Wildlife Trust, Green Bio Energy Ltd, Destination Jungle Ltd, and Green Organisation Africa Ltd.
Bugoma forest, which comprises 41,144 hectares, is ranked 12th out of 65 central forest reserves considered to be of biodiversity importance in Uganda. Located in western Uganda's wildlife migratory corridor that also includes the River Kafu basin, Bugoma has 267 species of trees, 18 mammals, 278 butterflies and 221 bird species.
Of the mammals in the forest, according to NFA, primates are most abundant, with an estimated chimpanzee population of 580. It also has a large number of black and white colobus (Colobus species), Ugandan mangabey (Lophocebus ugandae), red-tailed monkeys (Cercophithecus ascanius), blue monkeys (Cercopithecus mitis), as well as a small population of bush elephants (Loxodonta africana), golden cats (Profelis aurata) and side-striped jackals (Canis adustus).
Data from Global Forest Watch shows that between January 2001 and December 2012, a 62,254-hectare area that contains Bugoma forest lost 5,747 hectares of forest cover – in other words, the region around lost about nine percent of its tree cover in just 12 years. Some areas directly bordering the reserve have lost upwards of half their forest cover. Nationally, Uganda lost approximately 365,000 hectares of forest over this time, representing 1.5 percent of its total land area.
The Kafu River begins immediately east of Bugoma Forest Reserve, and has experienced massive deforestation due in large part to agricultural clearing. Of the approximately 90,000-hectare area of the upper Kafu River basin, more than 17,000 hectares of forest were lost between 2001 and 2013, according to data from Global Forest watch, and some portions of Kafu's riverbanks have lost almost all of their forest cover. Map courtesy of Global Forest Watch. Click to enlarge.
Presenting the findings of a survey they carried out in April, Laster-Stoney Ogola, a project officer with Uganda Wildlife Society, said the major causes of the massive deforestation in Bugoma forest include limited community awareness of their role in forest management and conservation, and insufficient funding for forest patrolmen. Others include failure by forest authorities to tame illegal forest activities such as logging and poaching, and conflicts between forest managers and communities regarding resource ownership and benefits.
"The government and, in particular Bugoma forest managers, need to address these factors to be able to enhance community participation in the forest management and conservation," he said.
The 40 respondents to the survey recommended five actions that need to be implemented in order to conserve the forest. They included increasing the human resource capacity charged with the management of the forest, sensitizing communities about their roles in forest management and protection, restoring degraded parts of the forest by planting indigenous tree species and putting up clear forest boundary markings.
According to Ogola, the respondents also called on the government and forest conservation enthusiasts to "provide benefits to communities, including establishing socio-economic, ecologically beneficial conservation enterprises such as ecotourism, tree seedlings for on-farm planting, small businesses and others, to encourage their participation in forest management and protection."
The Spokesperson for NFA, Gilbert Kadilo, said Bugoma forest "has come under immense pressure" from encroachers. He said the agency does not have the capacity to monitor, on its own, activities in all of the 506 central forest reserves under its care.
"The job of managing these resources is no small job. There are immense challenges that we face," he said. "We should not leave these things to the government. Much as we say the management of NFA is investing in forest conservation, the role of the wider public cannot be over-emphasized."

(11/25/2013) There are many ways in which people practice conservation. The most well-known are working to save species in the field or setting up protected areas.

Anyone who grew up watching David Attenborough documentaries, reading Gerald Durrell books, or simply exploring ecosystems on their own can tell you how important it is to encounter the wonders of wildlife at a young age. And for many of us most of our first encounters with wild animals are in illustrated books. Eric Losh's new book, The Chorus of Kibale, not only provides an educational opportunity for children to become acquainted with the many animals in Kibale National park in Uganda—through wonderful pictures and sounds—but proceed also go directly to two conservation groups working in the region, U.N.I.T.E. for the environment and the Primate Education Network (PEN).

THEY are called megathrusts. They shunt entire coastlines centimetres in a matter of seconds, and send devastating tsunamis half way round the world. The largest earthquakes of the past century were megathrusts with magnitudes greater than 9, dwarfing the recent and more deadly 7.4 earthquake in 1999 in Kocaeli, Turkey, which claimed over 17,000 lives and displaced about a quarter of a million people.
Many regions where tectonic plates meet suffer from megathrusts, and tens of millions of people worldwide live in the knowledge that their cities, which include Vancouver and Mexico City, are due, or overdue, for a big one.

Megathrusts happen when an oceanic plate sliding down underneath a continental plate jams against it. Stress builds, until the jam suddenly and catastrophically gives way, thrusting the oceanic plate under the coast. ...

There has been a lot of concern about the aspen trees in southwest Colorado recently. Something is eating the leaves, stripping whole stands of leaves.
"It will gobble up all those aspen leaves,' Said Steve Hartvigsen, forester of for the US Forest Service.
Sad to see that something this small, less than 2 inches long can do so much damage.
"It can remove virtually all the leaves off an aspen clone on hundreds if not several thousand acres," Hartvigsen said.
Western tent caterpillars are the problem. They're small and hairy and live in silken bags at tree tops.
And their favorite food? Aspen trees.
For the last few years, the aspens have been devoured by the little bug, but the last major outbreak was in the 1980s.
"What we try to do is try and monitor these populations, get a sense of the severity but for the most part we let them go and in a few years they will be gone and we will wait another 15-20 years before they cycle back."
The good news is most of the aspens seem to bounce back after being tent-worm-dinner.
"The aspen clones will gather up their energy and re leaf again. They will put out a whole canopy of leaves and that will carry into the fall, so we will see that color."
All that is left behind after the caterpillars eat their fill is the adults.
"So folks who have perhaps been putting up with the nuisance of caterpillars well we are going to have a bunch of moths come around at night."
And after the majority of aspens re-leaf, the prospect of fall color is still to come.
"People love aspen, aspen is one of the favorite forest species throughout the west and one can understand why."

Abuja — The Primate of All Nigeria Anglican Communion, Most Rev. Nicholas Okoh, on Saturday dismissed calls in some quarters for Churches in the country to be mandated to pay tax to government.
Okoh said this in Abuja at the 2012 Carnival for Christ, organised by the Abuja Diocese of the Anglican Communion.
The Carnival for Christ is an annual gathering of the various archdeaconries in the diocese to praise and worship God.
The Primate said Churches in the country were contributing immensely to the growth of the economy through their programmes and activities by engaging many unemployed youths.
He added that "it is ridiculous for anyone to suggest that Churches should be mandated to pay taxes to government.
"It is unfortunate to hear that someone will suggest that Churches should start paying taxes to government.
"Considering what Churches are doing for the country, I want to say that government should instead, fund some of our activities and give some kind of funds to Churches."
Earlier in his message at the event, the primate had urged Christians not to relent in their service to God.
He also urged them to believe in the power of the resurrection of Jesus Christ, noting that it was the foundation of the Christian faith.
He said that God at the appointed time would intervene in the challenges confronting the nation and expressed the hope that Christendom would emerge stronger and better in the days ahead.
"Christians in the country should pray for the leadership of the nation to overcome the challenge of insecurity," he stressed.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that five archdeaconries in the Abuja diocese participated in the 2012 edition of the carnival.
In a related development, the Catholic Archbishop of Abuja, John Cardinal Onaiyekan, had urged Christians not to be discouraged by the recent attacks in parts of the country.
Onaiyekan said this on Saturday at the official dedication of the newly completed Catholic Pro-Cathedral, Abuja.
Speaking in his first public appearance after his consecration as a cardinal in Rome, he said that the leadership of the Church in Nigeria would not relent in erecting new structures to facilitate the worship of the Lord in spite of the insecurity in parts of the country.
Onaiyekan said that the Church would only grow stronger and united in the worship of God.
The dedication of the new catholic Pro-Cathedral Church hall was performed by the new cardinal and assisted by the auxiliary Bishop of the diocese, Most Rev. Anslem Umoren and other senior priests in the archdiocese.
The event was also attended by some members of the catholic community in Abuja and its environ.

This paper examines the possibility of using the principle of conservation of canonical momentum applied to heavy ion beam orbits to obtain an estimate of the local poloidal flux at the position of ionization in a tokamak plasma. The presence of a nonaxisymmetrical ripple field, induced by the discreteness of the toroidal field coils, precludes a strict application of the principle. However, the results suggest that toroidal ripple in regions outside the plasma can be accounted for using knowledge of the particle beam's initial position and angular momentum together with measurements of the secondary beam's position and angular momentum to obtain an accurate estimate of the local poloidal flux in the plasma. A way of measuring the toroidal momentum of the secondaries is proposed, using two position measurements along the trajectory. The proposed method potentially provides powerful constraints if combined with an equilibrium code for solving the Grad-Shafranov equation.

Modified Mustangs & FordsProject Vehicles
1969 Ford Mustang Sports Roof - Cool School
We Get A Lesson In Cooling Science With Help From National Parts Depot
We've got a '69 Mustang SportsRoof in our vintage Ford stable that's definitely in the user category. It's driven somewhere almost every weekend and regularly runs in the Silver State Classic open road rally in Ely, Nevada. Although our car doesn't have the correct chalk marks, it does have a host of high-performance goodies, including a hot 351 Windsor engine and a T-5 five-speed overdrive transmission. Held during the spring and fall of each year, the Silver State Classic has plenty of Nevada-style heat to challenge our machine, and our cooling system better be ready for it. The event means continuous high engine loads, and speeds in excess of 100 mph are the norm. These conditions had us thinking about some serious cooling system upgrades.
Our car had the factory small-block radiator out front, and at 20 by 20 inches in size, it was a lot smaller than the opening in the core support. Beside the relatively limited frontal area, the radiator core was thin and offered limited coolant capacity. Also, at home in Los Angeles, the stop-and-go traffic would regularly have our car on the verge of overheating. What we wanted was a cooling system that had enough reserve capacity to free us from any engine temperature related worries.
We consulted the experts at National Parts Depot (NPD) to see what they would recommend, and a great cooling system combination was the result. They started us out with a big-block size aluminum radiator from Griffin that was much larger than our OE 351W unit. To move air through the radiator, NPD provided a dual electric fan system from Old Air Products. New upper and lower radiator hoses from Marti Auto Works were going to be connected to a new Tuff Stuff Performance Accessories chrome water pump, which would replace our tired and squeaky pump.
When combined with a new thermostat, radiator cap, and coolant, we'd have a winning cooling system combination. The reserve cooling capacity that this setup offers will keep the water temperature down right on top of the thermostat, and it will be good to have should we ever decide to add accessories, such as air conditioning or an engine power adder. This system should be able to beat the heat whatever the situation. We're basically replacing the entire cooling system.
Although this sounds like a lot of work, continue reading and you'll see the job was relatively easy to accomplish. You should be able to do this swap on a Saturday afternoon.
Keeping Your CoolHere are a few tips we've learned over the years about classic Ford cooling systems. We're sure you've seen a few of them, but it's always good to take a refresher course.
* Don't use too cold a thermostat. Run around with a big radiator and a 160 thermostat, and your engine will never reach proper operating temperature. Choose a 180 instead.
* Don't run straight water in your cooling system. It doesn't take long for the corrosion process to begin. Unless you live in Fairbanks, Alaska, a 50/50 mix of distilled water and coolant mix is correct.
* To maintain radiator efficiency take a garden hose and clean the radiator. When the car is cold, carefully flush the core from the engine side and out the front of the car. After 1,000 miles of summer driving, you'd be amazed how many dead insects will have collected on the radiator. They will obstruct proper airflow eventually if not removed.
* If you've got an engine that hasn't been apart in years, you may have a lot of rust and debris circulating through your cooling system. Before you install a new radiator into a car like this be sure to back flush the system, including the heater core and engine block. With the new radiator in place you can use an in-line filter trap. They're available for your radiator hose to catch any particulate matter in the system.

Real Housewives of New York
Bethenny Frankel Wishes Jill Zarin Well: "I Hope She's Happy" (VIDEO)
Last night (December 11), Bethenny Frankel hit up her pal Andy Cohen's show Watch What Happens Live for a one-on-one exclusive chat, and the two took a little time to specifically address the claims her former Real Housewives of New York co-star Jill Zarin made about her during her own well-publicized WWHL interview back in October.
First, she talked about the fact that Jill claimed she thought she and Bethenny were "like sisters" but soon learned that it was purely "a business relationship" instead. "A business relationship? We met because we came on the show. We were going through this new experience," Bethenny reacted. "I honestly didn't think it was going to become anything. She was hopeful. And we kind of went through this journey together."
The next subject up for hilarious review was when Jill claimed that Andy (and by extension, Bravo as a whole) showed favoritism toward Bethenny above herself and the other Housewives. This got Bethenny going with a nasal reenactment of the accusation. "It's not fair Andy. Why would you be friends with Bethenny and not the other Housewives! It's not fair Andy!" she screeched before getting serious.
"Okay," she continued. "I didn't ever have any kind of personal relationship with you until well after the Housewives … When I was with Bravo, the powers that be, I kept my nose clean. I wasn't like 'They edit us to look bad!' I was kind of just cool with you guys … That's life. We're not in high school."
Speaking of teenage histrionics, when the clip of Jill touting her social network numbers came up, Bethenny said, "Oh my … who would … If you gave me ten million dollars I wouldn't know how many followers of any sort I have … Who has time to think about these things?"
Finally, Bethenny decided to throw all her dice on the table.
"Here's the truth about this entire interview she did … back in the day, based on things that happened during that season, I was very, very angry at her," she said. "I don't think you should hold onto the anger, and I honestly wish her well and I hope she's happy … And it's not really necessary to talk about it anymore. I hope she's well. I honestly, honestly do, but it's enough. It's enough."

Route 94 is a wonderful way to see the county
The terrain levels off as you head east toward Campo, home of the Motor Transport Museum, which resembles a junkyard on the grounds of an old mill: It's hard to miss (but only open on Saturdays, so plan accordingly).
More twists and turns will take you through the Campo Indian reservation and eventually to Manzanita, where the highway meets up with historic Old Highway 80, which was the major east-west route before modern Interstate 8 was completed in the 1970s. To expedite your return to the coast, take a left at Ribbonwood Road and hop on I-8 West, or continue exploring the rural highways of East County with a jaunt into Jacumba on the old Highway 80.

Our friends from SINN & SKINN were in Las Vegas last week for the AVN Awards and while there they challenged two hot pornstars, Cali Carter and Tiffani Taylor, to put a condom on a banana without using their hands.
The girls had their own idea.
Rather than just put a condom on a banana, they decided to put on a show with the banana!
Honestly, watching this video is the most fun anyone has ever had with a banana.
Cali Carter and Tiffani Taylor have skyrocketed up my list of favorite pornstars. Way to go, girls!
Does it mean that I'm obsessed with sex if I think that Cali Carter and Tiffani Taylor going HAM (hard as a motherfucker) on this banana was a more effective healthy eating PSA than the one that Michelle Obama shot with the Miami Heat?
Big thanks to SINN & SKINN for getting Cali Carter and Tiffani Taylor together to destroy that lucky, lucky banana.

Loud Pipe design logic
View Single Post
Gnarly Adventurer
Joined: Jan 2011
Oddometer: 135
My take on loud pipes is that they're often so loud that they reverberate extremely much in settings where it's the most counterproductive: The city. Combine this with other people (besides me) not being to tell where it's from either, or the distance, and you have a lot of cagers trying to find out where it's coming from and how far away it is.
Oh, yeah, and higher frequency sound
directional, where low frequency sound is omnidirectional. That's why it matters that the tweeter in your speaker points towards your ears, whereas the low frequency signals can come from a subwoofer placed in the corner of your living room.
It's not something that is new or weird, it's pretty basic science about audio wave propagation.
You don't need to be an elephant to be able to hear this either: Get a speaker with a tweeter so you know for a fact that the higher frequencies comes out, poke your head close to it, at the right height. Then begin move your head down, up, or to the sides, away from the tweeter. You will notice, that as you move away (to the sides, up, or down) that the audio will become much more bass-heavy, as if it's cutting away the treble. The reason for this is that you actually are cutting away the treble by moving out of reach of the "beam".

The Booster club runs because of the efforts of the great Bowie parents. Want to get involved and help make the program a success?
Check out these opportunities:
Volunteers are needed for next year's "Adopt-A-Rookie-Parent Program". As we all have learned, parents need as much assistance as students do to keep up with the fast-pace and rigorous demands of the Bowie Band. The purpose of the Adopt-A-Rookie-Parent program is to ease the transition to the Bowie Band for new parents by pairing them with parents that are veterans of the program.
Adopter parent volunteers are matched to no more than three Rookie parents, with the adoptions being "section specific" (i.e., flutes adopt flutes, percussion adopts percussion, etc.), unless there is a shortage of Adopter volunteers in any particular section. The Adopter serves as a valuable source of information about band life by answering questions and checking on how things are going. It
is comforting for Rookies to know that there is one person who is dedicated to helping them and to whom they can go with any questions. If you were a rookie parent yourself this year, don't feel left out. With the end of the school year fast approaching, you have advanced to the status of "veteran" and you can be an Adopter too! In fact, I especially encourage you to become an Adopter, while your own rookie year is still fresh in your mind.

As the soldier was thrown from his horse, his trumpet sailed through the air and landed across the field. All he remembered was a glimpse of shining brass before everything went black...
It was a rough day in Lego land. The battle raged. Swords flashed, knights clashed, and horses raced to the front lines. After it was over -- all you could see were the dead.
"Okay guys. Battle's over. Time to clean up," I said as I glanced at the morning carnage.
... I thought about how I wanted to teach the guys that messes are okay as long as you clean them up.
I don't know who said that house cleaning was like stringing beads -- only with no knot at the end! So true. House cleaning does feel like an endless cycle, but doesn't have to be a burden when you have the kids pitch in.
You may think that it's strange, but I never minded doing house work. Then again -- I had help. I actively enlisted and recruited all occupants of the household. So, I recommend that you have your kids learn at a young age to help around the house.
Even young children can make their beds, clean up their toys, & fold towels. Once they're old enough, they can help with doing laundry, stacking dishes & vacuuming. I think chore charts are great. You can make one yourself and hang it on the fridge.
I always insisted that the boys make their beds each morning and help in the house & yard. Now, I'm glad that I did!
Sometimes I used post-it notes next to the cereal bowls on the breakfast table as reminders for morning chores:
Feed the fish. Take out the trash. Windex the back door... things like that.
For afternoon chores, I usually gave verbal reminders, whether it was setting the table for dinner, straightening the family room, or feeding the dog.
Now the mirrors in the bathroom are shiny, books are put away & all the fingerprints on the windows are long gone. Everything's neat & tidy --- but, I miss those days when there were messes to clean up, clothes to fold, and crumbs to sweep. With the guys at college, things are different. I miss the homeschooling days....
But, I'm thankful that I taught the boys how to clean up after themselves. Their roommates appreciate it. Their employer (last summer) appreciated it. And when they come home -- I appreciate it!
About the Lego battles -- I miss all the action! All the knights are back in the box.
Have a wonderful day! With God's help, keep being a great mom!

The romantic comedy/crime movie Henry's Crime debuted at last year's Toronto International Film Festival, but is finally being released next month.
Directed by Malcom Venville (44 Inch Chest), Henry's Crime follows Keanu Reeves as an aimless everyman who is put in jail for a crime he did not commit. Once he is released, he decides to pull off the very crime for which he was sentenced with the aid of his cellmate (James Caan), and meanwhile falls for a theater actress (Vera Farmiga).
Moving Pictures picked up the movie for distribution last November, and has released a new trailer to promote next month's opening.

press release
Steps are currently under way in Ghana to strengthen and build the capacities of government officials and stakeholders outside of government to address Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) identification, manage existing sources of PCBs and ensure their elimination in the country.
PCBs are synthetic chemicals that were manufactured for use in various industrial and commercial applications and widely used as dielectric and coolant fluids, in transformers, capacitors and electric motors.
PCBs were also used as oil in electrical and hydraulic equipment, plasticizers in paints, plastics and rubber products due to their non-flammability, chemical stability, high boiling point and electrical insulation properties.
The chemical when released into the environment do not easily break apart. Instead, they persist for many years, widely distributed through the environment through the soil, water and air. In addition, bio accumulates in the fatty tissues in living organisms and found at higher concentration levels in the food chain.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) had classified PCBs as probable human carcinogens. Long-term effects of PCB exposure include harm to the nervous and reproductive system, immune system suppression, hormone disruption, skin and eye irritation.
Studies of PCBs in humans had found increased rates of melanomas, liver cancer, gall bladder cancer, biliary tract cancer, gastrointestinal tract cancer, brain cancer and breast cancer. PCBs are known to cause a variety of cancers in rats, mice, and other study animals.
The 6.5 million dollar project which begun in 2009 was expected to end in 2014, aimed at protecting human health and improve environmental quality by avoiding exposure to PCB contaminated oil particularly from transformers and capacitors in the country.
The project was jointly supported by the EPA, United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR).
At a day's high level sensitisation workshop in Accra yesterday, a Deputy Minister for Environment, Science, Technology and Innovation, Dr Musheibu Mohammed-Alfa said though there were no regulations pertaining to PCBs in the country, inventories on power transformers, import, use and distribution of PCB containing -equipment of the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) and the Volta River Authority (VRA) nationwide revealed that 12,000 transformers had PCB substances in them.
He noted that Ghana ratified the Stockholm Convention in 2003 aimed at protecting the environment from toxic substances and would ensure discontinue use of intentionally produced PCBs in the country.
"The Convention engages and binds the international community to take actions that prevent PCBs from being used or released but allows for countries to work towards elimination of PCB equipment by the year 2025," he disclosed.
He said the development of legislation on PCBs was expected to check the gap and also arrangement put in place to ensure that all transformers and dielectric fluids imported into the country went through clearance check by the EPA and the Customs Division of the Ghana Revenue Authority.
He added that efforts had been made to build the capacity of relevant institutions on the use PCB-analyzers (L-2000) and made the equipment available to Customs, ECG and VRA to enable undertake the required controls.
The Executive Chairman of EPA, Mr Daniel Amlalo, noted the project implementation strategy was such that the country moved from the current unsustainable management of PCB-containing equipment to sound management and disposal practices.
He said the aim of the nationwide inventory of transformers and capacitors was to determine their PCB status to ensure that the country completely eliminated PCBs from our environment.
He was delighted about the draft policy for control and management of PCBs developed under the project.
Mr Amlalo noted that an awareness creation programme had been developed to educate the general public on the adverse effects of PCBs on human health and the environment generally.
For his part, Director, Chemicals Control of EPA Mr John Pwamang said, the project had been able to develop an environmental, health and safety guidelines, secured a temporary storage site in Tema to store PCBs containing equipment and also developed PCB management plan.

Remember when George Lucas went back to the classic Star Wars films twenty years after their release and added improved special effects and sound? Well, now Rye has taken a similar approach to a classic Punished Heroines film with Supergasm (which gets my vote for best title of the year). I remember seeing this heroine peril film several years ago, and I liked it back then, but this is an improved version with a few changes including a new voice-over by the same model who played the heroine in the original release. So on the one hand, it's an interesting experiment, and on the other, it's still an entertaining heroine peril film involving a Punished Heroines-style beatdown and sexual abuse of the lead superheroine.
The video opens with the villain in an evil warehouse building some kind of device. We're not sure exactly what this is yet, but since the title of the video is Supergasm, we can venture a guess. And we're right, as we soon learn when a voice-over explains to Superia, our superheroine, "The device he's trying to build is more powerful than even you… Once it connects with your private area, it will be impossible to for you to resist." So there you have it. The device is designed to elicit the "supergasm" of the title.
Damion, the main villain, continues to work on the device as Superia arrives and interrupts him. The model here looks really good and does a great job of portraying an innocent superheroine. Like all "Punished Heroines," she clearly underestimates her opponent and is way too confident prior to fighting him. Superia dominates the battle at first, but eventually gets worn down by Damion's attacks. She ends up severely weakened and writhing on the ground. Damion picks her up and continues to torment her with a series of punishing belly punches. This continues for a while as Damion uses various punches and kicks against his weakened opponent, who by this point is utterly helpless.
Eventually, Superia loses consciousness, and Damion takes the opportunity to tie her hands and feet down. By now, we know where this is going, as the supergasm device is undoubtedly about to make another appearance. Damion brings out the device and uses it, making contact with Superia's private area as hinted at in the beginning of the film, and rendering her unable to resist. This forced orgasm scene, which includes nudity but nothing hard-core, goes on for some time, and I have to say the actress is really convincing here. Which leads me to wonder if the supergasm device lives up to its name in real life.
Viewers looking for a more complex story along the lines of The Battle for Earth may not enjoy this video since it doesn't offer much of a story at all. It's pretty much made for fans of the Punished Heroines style. I think it's interesting to see this "re-master" of a classic video with a new voiceover, and whether you've seen it before or not, if you enjoy one-sided heroine peril and beatdowns, you should enjoy this video as wel.

Reliability will be the key to unlocking this year's Formula 1 championship, according to triple World Champion Niki Lauda and Ferrari technical director James Allison.
Lauda, the non-executive chairman of the Mercedes team, also highlighted reliability on a visit to his former team for discussions with Ferrari president Luca Di Montezemolo about the sport in general.
"The combination of new car and installing the car and engine in a way that [means that] you are reliable, this is the biggest challenge," he said. "Whoever has [the least] failures this year will be World Champion."
In agreement is Allison who said that while the rate of development in aerodynamics during the course of the season would be steep, it would no longer be the dominant factor.
"The importance of aerodynamics to the championship is going to be at least as important as the differences in power levels between the various engine manufacturers," Allison told the Ferrari website.
"However, if I had to choose the thing that was likely to be the dominant factor for the whole season, I would choose neither the level of power nor the aerodynamic development.
"I would say that this year reliability is going to be absolutely fundamental."
The new power unit, a V6 turbocharged engine with energy recovery systems, represents a huge challenge for engineers. Drivers are now limited to 100 kg of fuel in the race, instead of 140 kg, and are allocated five engines per year instead of eight.
Teams start pre-season testing in Jerez, southern Spain, on Tuesday although Mercedes completed 40 km on a filming day at Silverstone on Friday.
Ferrari Team Principal Stefano Domenicali expected the first test to be tough for everyone.
"The technical challenge is, as far as I can remember, the biggest one that we have seen in the last decade of F1," he said. (Reuters)

Photos: Gelatinous Blobfish in dangermongabay.com
January 26, 2010
The Blobfish (Psychrolutes marcidus), a gelatinous fish that lives at depths up to 800 meters, where it feeds on drifting organic matter, is being accidently captured by deep-sea trawlers seeking crabs and lobsters off southeastern Australia, according to Callum Roberts, a marine scientist with the University of York.
Photos ©CATERS/Kerryn Parkison/Norfanz
Little else is known about the species, which can reach a length of up to 30 cm (12 inches) and is regarded as inedible.
Roberts, who authored "The Unnatural History of the Sea", said its apparent depletion demonstrates the destructiveness of bottom trawling.
"A very large amount of the deep sea is under threat from bottom trawling which is one of the most destructive forms of fishing," he was quoted as saying.
Deepwater fish tend to be longer-lived than shallow water dwellers: some species, like the warty oreo (Allocyttus verrucosus) and orange roughy (Hoplostethus atlanticus), may live to be more than 130 years old. Their slow reproductive rate, slow-growth, and delayed-maturity means they are especially vulnerable to overfishing. Conservation groups have recently warned that a number of deepwater fish stocks are at the point of collapse.

October 1, 2013 — Identity management can be easy with a closed technology system where the single server is located down the hall.
The move to the cloud is forcing federal information technology professionals to consider a wide range of options for authentication.
Today's interview is with Jim Williams, vice president at DAON, and his colleague, Conor White, the president of the DAON division called X-Products.
Identity management has been gaining interest in the federal community.
In fact, NIST is sponsoring a plenary meeting in October with a discussion on developing standards for identity management in the cloud.
During the interview, White talks about the positives and negatives of a variety of systems that enterprises can use for authentication.
Many will say that user name and password is a system that is antiquated and too easily breached.
DAON has systems that incorporate multiple factors for identification, including face recognition, voice recognition, and even combining those with geographic confirmation with your smart phone.
When a consumer product includes technology that incorporated biometrics, then it is time for enterprises to catch up.
How the US Mint and NIST are perfecting the money-making process.

The past century's style icons have a common thread between them: the leather jacket. From Steve McQueen's cool kid racer to Michael Jackson's red zippered stand-out in the Thriller video, it's an iconic style item worth making room in your closet for. Here are nine highlights for the season.
A classic silhouette in rich leather is geared toward the guy who wants to give off a polished vibe. This slim fitting jacket from Vince boasts a warm brown shade that you'll wear forever. Pair it with jeans and a shirt and tie to further straddle the line between dressed up and dressed down.
Vince jacket ($900), vince.com [4] ; Astor & Black shirt ($140), (877) 278-6718; Thomas Pink tie ($105), thomaspink.com [5] ; 7 For All Mankind jeans ($200), 7forallmankind.com [6]
This wardrobe essential from DKNY instantly adds style to any outfit—just check out that popped collar. Keep it simple underneath. A basic T-shirt and fitted jeans let the jacket shine as the stand out piece. This'll be your go-to for unleashing your inner James Dean.

This jacket genre still exudes the sense of daring adventure as it did in the early days of aviation. These days, though, the plane is just an accessory. All eyes are on the shearling-lined collar of this Cole Haan jacket—creating a soft, luxe contrast to the rugged leather.
Cole Haan jacket ($800), colehaan.com [15]; American Apparel T-shirt ($22), americanapparel.net [16], CK One jeans ($70), calvinklein.com [17]

Amid all the murmurings of doom and gloom surrounding its current state, Apple appears to have been "trying (a little) harder to get its message out," as The Wall Street Journal puts it.
The Cupertino-based company has long been known to issue press releases only for its major announcements, as for product launches or sales disclosures. But Apple seemed to have gone out of character with its last couple of press releases.
Last week, Apple issued a press release to announce the arrival of iOS 6.1. As noted by The Wall Street Journal, it was "the first time Apple has issued an official press release for a non-major mobile software release unrelated to a new device since 2010." The minor software update brought little beyond LTE support for more carriers, Fandango integration with Siri, and iTunes Match downloading.
Also last week, Apple issued another press release to announce the new 128GB Retina iPad, which went on sale today.
Moreover, Apple reportedly has been sending more third-party reports favorable, of course, to the company. Since the start of 2013, no less than five such reports have been sent by Apple, apparently surpassing the corresponding number of reports from recent months.
According to a source of The Wall Street Journal, who is familiar with the matter, Apple's latest PR moves represent "a recognition that competition is heating up."

'Cops' show could patrol in Beaumont
By Dan Wallach | April 29, 2013 | Updated: April 29, 2013 6:52pm
Photo By Guiseppe Barranco/STAFF PHOTOGRAPHERBeaumont Police Chief James Singletary enters a Galveston County courtroom on April 23. Singletary said he hopes the Beaumont City Council approves the reality show 'Cops' filming in the city. Photo taken Tuesday, April 23, 2013 Guiseppe Barranco/The Enterprise
The granddaddy of reality television shows could bring its shaky hand-held camera technique to Beaumont to observe the men and women of the Beaumont Police Department in action.
City Council will vote Tuesday on giving its blessing to the project and if it does, a production crew could be here by the end of the week for what could be an eight-week ride-along, said Chief James Singletary.
And if all goes well, residents could be listening to the show's theme song "Bad Boys," while seeing Beaumont police officers cruising local streets while rounding them up.
"They contacted us a couple of months ago," Singletary said. "I called some friends in other departments who had been through this. I see it as a morale boost and a public relations and recruiting tool. I think this will be a positive thing and I have confidence in our officers."
Singletary said a producer from the program also has visited Beaumont and did a ride-along with officers.
"He was impressed with our department," he said.

Spraying steam into soil contaminated by organic pollutants such as PCBs can dramatically cut the time and cost of decontamination. Instead of waiting for pollutants to percolate slowly into groundwater, researchers from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California use steam's heat to dislodge contaminants from the soil. Injecting air then triggers an oxidation reaction that renders most organic pollutants harmless. In a pilot project, the process got rid of 250 tonnes of waste in 9 monthsstandard treatment would have extracted only 125 kilograms in the time. Steam also costs about two-thirds less.
