Press Room
Calling All Artists
On Saturday, August 9, 2014 artists are invited to bring their palettes, easels, chairs, brushes, and TALENT to Glens Falls and go outside to paint what inspires them. The 1st annual city-wide Paint Out is taking place and we want as many artists as possible to create an al fresco painting frenzy!
All professional, intermediary, or beginning artists are welcome to participate.
Artists are welcome to set up anywhere within Glens Falls but the following organizations welcome you to consider painting outside their location: Chapman Historical Museum; The Glens Falls Farmer's Market; The Feeder Canal; The Folklife Center at Crandall Public Library; The Hyde Collection; Lower Adirondack Regional Arts Council; The Shirt Factory; The Wood Theater; and the World Awareness Children's Museum.
Once the art work is completed, artists are encouraged to give back to the community by participating in a charitable, PopUp Show where the work will be hung for display and sold. Fifty percent of the proceeds from the sale of the art will go back to the artist and the other fifty percent to The Open Door's Code Blue Emergency Winter Shelter and Homeless Shelter projects fund. This is optional but encouraged. This event will take place as part of The Shirt Factory's LocalFest on Saturday, September 6, 2014 from 10:00am to 5:00pm. Participating artists must drop off their work at The Shirt Factory Gallery between 12noon – 5:00pm, Wednesday, September 3 through Friday, September 5. All work must be unframed. If the work is on canvas, it must be wired in the back to hang for display.
If the work doesn't sell, it's the responsible of the artist to pick up their work at 5:00 pm on September 6. Unclaimed work will be donated as The Shirt Factory does not have storage space to hold the work. Contact The Shirt Factory at (518) 9074478 or firstname.lastname@example.com for further questions.
For those artists who would like a refresher course, or if you're a beginner and want to learn more, the Lower Adirondack Regional Arts Council is offering a series of plein air workshops with artist Tom Ryan. The three classes being offered are: Plein Air Basics – Set Up and Supplies on Wednesday, July 30, 2014 from 6pm-8pm; Plein Air Basics – Design Principles on Wednesday, August 6, 2014 from 6pm-8pm; and Plein Air Outing – Two Sessions: one on August 1 and the other on August 8 from 9:00am to 12noon. Each workshop priced individually at $10 LARAC members/$15 non-members. Discounted package for all four sessions: $30 LARAC members; $50 non-members. For more information contact LARAC at 518-798-1144, ext. 2 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
If you are not familiar with Glens Falls and need assistance or ideas as to where to set up your canvas on the day of the Paint Out event, stop by LARAC, 7 Lapham Place at City Park from 10:00am to 3:00pm. Someone will be there to answer your questions and offer you options.

According to a recent SAMHSA report on treatment admissions over a 10-year period, the co-abuse of alcohol and drugs continues to be a significant problem.
Treatment Episode Data Set (TEDS): 1996-2006: National Admissions to Substance Abuse Treatment Services (PDF size: 7.84 MB) reports that in 2006, 39 percent of all admissions reported problems with both alcohol and drugs—21 percent reported primary drug abuse with secondary alcohol abuse, and 18 percent reported primary alcohol abuse with secondary drug abuse.
Primary alcohol abuse declined from 51 percent of TEDS admissions in 1996 to 40 percent in 2006. Primary drug abuse increased from 47 percent in 1996 to 58 percent in 2005 and 2006.
The chart illustrates five separate data sets represented in different colors. Primary alcohol abuse (in red) declined from 51 percent of admissions in 1996 to 40 percent of admissions 10 years later in 2006.

These Fear Cowboy poems are examples of Cowboy poems about Fear. These are the best examples of Fear Cowboy poems written by international PoetrySoup poets
There were many outlaws in the old west.
But one outlaw stood out more than the rest.
And his name was Billy the kid.
He was a very fierce gun fighter, that showed no fear, or remorse on who he killed.
Billy was quick at the draw with his colt 45.
So whoever went up against billy the kid, was surely to die.
So the next time you think of a outlaw from the old west, Think about
Billy the kid because that outlaw was one tuff cowboy.
Tainted love
or tired love?
Smug attitudes
and weak games
Look at you!
Your such a lame!
Me cry?! Ha! Not no more!
Five point five years
What a joke?!
All you do is lie
Keep smoking your life away!
Wake up before its too late!
Before this love turns into hate!
Your too old to act this way!
Your too comfortable
You cant stay!
In my life!
In my way!
Goodbye to you!!!

Jon Voight as Luke Martin in Coming Home
- Other Nominees
·Warren Beatty as Joe Pendleton/Leo Farnsworth/Tom Jarrett in Heaven Can Wait
·Gary Busey as Buddy Holly in The Buddy Holly Story
·Robert De Niro as Michael in The Deer Hunter
·Laurence Olivier as Ezra Lieberman in The Boys from Brazil
Voight debuted on Broadway in the hit musical The Sound of Music in 1961, and he began to attract widespread attention with his Oscar-nominated performance in Midnight Cowboy in 1969. Thereafter, he chose his projects carefully, but not always successfully. He reestablished his star status with Coming Home, in which he played a paraplegic Vietnam vet whose bitterness begins to subside when he starts speaking out against the war and finds comfort in the arms of another soldier's wife (Jane Fonda, AA). Like Fonda, Voight had been active in the antiwar movement during the Vietnam conflict and even participated in Fonda's organization, Entertainment Industry for Peace and Justice. Unlike his leading lady, however, Voight unfortunately did not immediately follow up the success of Coming Home with more great roles. A gifted actor, Voight was nominated again for his appearance in the 1985 action film Runaway Train, but he worked mostly in television before making a modest comeback in a number of feature films in the mid-1990s.
Jon Voight (b. Dec. 29, 1938, Yonkers, N.Y., U.S.)

Can gold get back up on oil?
Energy prices are key to the outlook for inflation, even more so than central banks.
By Robert Weinstein
Falling Gold (GLD) and Silver (SLV) prices should not come as a shocker, unless maybe you haven't paid attention to real inflation, or the lack thereof. I know gold bugs continuously point their collective finger at the central banks of the world and declare, like Paul Revere riding through the night: "Inflation is coming; inflation is coming!"
Unfortunately for the gold perma-bulls, they haven't figured out that although central banks may be the most influential gold-price influence, central banks are only one of many. Outside of central banks, energy prices impact inflation the most.
Many market watchers argue energy is a bigger influence than the printing presses, and I can buy into that argument.
But gold bugs have a point about the central bankers. The Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank are inflating their fiat currencies relative to goods and services. The term "relative" is key because if other macroeconomic influences have a greater deflationary impact relative to bankers, the net result is a lower price of gold.
However, simply reviewing the money-supply growth (in an information vacuum) and reaching a conclusion that the price of gold will continue to increase, is purely tunnel vision. There is so much more that makes up the price of gold, and each factor must be given its proper weight.
Gold investors have a whopping case of the confirmation-bias flu. I wrote about it in several articles. In TheStreet's Don't Walk, Run Away From Gold, Silver, I warned that metals didn't have a favorable risk-to-reward ratio. I warned that gold buyers were ignoring the downside warning signs while giving too much weight to bullish indications.
More recently, I wrote about miners in TheStreet's How Far Down Can the Miners Go? and my timing was obviously perfect.
The article was published shortly before the open of one of the strongest moves higher by Allied Nevada Gold (ANV) in a long time. Allied was trading lower before metals took their momentous dive, and I considered Allied Nevada Gold to be a value buy there.
To better understand what the metals may have for a future, you want to pay close attention to energy and the United States Oil Fund (USO). Everything revolves around energy. Lower energy prices allow the prices of everything else to fall. It's nearly impossible to find a good or service that isn't impacted by the cost of oil.
Obviously transportation costs come to mind, and that is a significant component to every product on the shelves, but oil is turned into everything from toothbrushes to fertilizer. On Monday, USO made a new 2013 low, and isn't far from reaching the lows of 2012.
Oil prices lead the metals, not the other way around. We are witnessing greater natural gas supplies United States Natural Gas Fund (UNG) coming on line and an expectation of more natural gas displacement of diesel and gasoline in the future.
Natural gas prices have been helped recently by the cold spring in North America (i.e., on April 14, it was snowing in Wisconsin), but the trend remains lower. Lower natural gas prices equate to lower energy prices, and of course, oil.
So, if you want to know what to expect from metals, watch energy prices. Until you see higher energy prices, the metals will remain under price pressure. Gold may have become technically oversold on Monday, making for a quick bounce, but unless you're effective at catching falling knifes, you may want to sit this one out.

Shiller says investors should buy land
The economist sees farms as a safer bet than houses, citing rising demand for biofuels and food.
Yale Economics professor Robert Shiller told CNBC Monday that investors should put their money into stocks or farmland. Stocks, OK, but … farmland?
Turns out the respected co-founder of the Case-Shiller Home Price Index may be on to something.
"The CME futures market has [home prices] increasing 1 to 2%, in real terms, for the next five years," Shiller said, but added that prices could just as easily drop by that amount.
According to Shiller, farm prices have risen over 20% in the past year. Shiller said rent of farmland is up, mostly due to the growing importance of biofuels, made from corn, along with plastics and other products derived from commodities like corn and soybeans.
Shiller also pointed out recent news of a worldwide food shortage, which he says taken together with other factors all conspire to drive up farmland prices.
He did suggest that farmland might be nearing a bubble, but said so many factors come into play that it is impossible to tell at this point.
Shiller is not alone in his opinion about the growing value of farmland. Farmland LP, a private equity fund that acquires conventional farmland and converts it to certified organic use, points out that farmland averaged 11.9% total annual return between 1970 and 2000, with 6.4% from appreciation and 5.5% from operating income.
So, if investors are leery of housing but still have an interest in real estate, how can they invest in farmland?
As Shiller pointed out during the CNBC interview, there is no Farmland ETF yet -- so what is there?
First, there is Cresud Sociedad Anónima (CRESY) an agricultural company, engaged in the production of basic agricultural commodities in Brazil and other Latin American countries. The company also engages in the acquisition of land reserves for development or sale. Cresud closed at $9.03 down 0.77% on Monday and pays a 5.3% dividend.
Adecoagro S.A. (AGRO) operates as an agricultural company in South America. It engages in planting, harvesting and selling grains, oilseeds, rice, wheat, corn, soybeans, cotton and sunflowers to grain traders. Further, the company is involved in the identification, acquisition and disposition of farmlands. Shares of Adecoagro ended the day Monday at $8.54, up 0.47%.
Cosan Ltd. (CZZ) engages in the energy, food, logistics, infrastructure and farmland development and management businesses primarily in Brazil, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, Asia and North America. Further, the company is involved in agricultural land and other investment activities. Cosan finished at $20.35, down nearly 1%.
Finally, although not a farmland ETF, Market Vectors Global Agribusiness ETF (MOO) has among its holdings Deere (DE), Monsanto (MON), and Mosaic (MOS). All of these names are affected by the economics of the farming business including farmland prices.
More from Benzinga
My uncle out in Texas
Can't even write his name.
He signs his checks with X's,
But they cash them just the same!
(Irving Berlin, "Doin' What Comes Naturally")
Surprised Shiller didn't mention the oil and gas exploration boom, which has led to fortunes being made by some owners of farmland who own their mineral rights.
The CA bullet train authority has budgeted $8000 per acre of farmland to buy up right-of-way for the bullet train. Unfortunately, the farmland is selling at $28,000 per acre. So perhaps they are on to something.
When the SHTF, and federal reserve notes become worthless, the (martial law) government will confiscate the farmland, so this approach isn't without risk.

At EcoGeek, we think that hydrogen is the best choice cialis purchase exciting, and if done correctly, in a nice sustainable way, could potentially be an exciting clean fuel for the future. The problem is... trying to store the darn stuff.
Unfortunately hydrogen's teeny weeny itty bitty-ness means that although it compares favourably to www.revistadeteatro.com many other energy-carriers by weight, volumetrically, its performance is poor. Also, this teeny-ness means that it can squeeze through the smallest of spaces over time. Which is why hydrogen storage is a real head-scratcher.
Luckily, progress is being made... Some exciting work by researchers at the Universities of Cardiff, Manchester and we like it generic pack cialis Birmingham in the www.peseta.org UK, have created an organic polymer that can store three percent hydrogen by weight. This is very exciting, as storing hydrogen is such a major challenge. The Department of Energy estimates that six percent is the sweet figure the scientists need to work towards, to make a vehicle with a range of three hundred miles; however, this improvement is generic cialis 100mg a quantum leap forward from the one point seven percent previously achieved.
Work continues on the project, with the aim to make the polymer even more porous... We here at EcoGeek think that this is plastic-fantastic!

This Company Is Building Monopoly Power
Jordan is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
The best businesses are those that have implicit monopoly power. They can earn high returns on capital without sacrificing quality to beat their customers on price. Implicit monopolies aren't constrained like explicit monopolies, either.
This rapidly-growing dot com is slowly building an impenetrable monopoly.
Bank on printing
Vistaprint (NASDAQ: VPRT) is a leader in the online printing space. The company offers inexpensive products meant for business customers. From promotional pens to business cards and letterhead, the company uses its scale and pricing to beat out local competitors for a greater share of the promotional market.
Vistaprint has found its niche in "microbusinesses," which are small, often one-man startups that need essential supplies for a small office. Microbusiness owners can purchase everything they need at Vistaprint to make their one-man shop look as official as a multinational corporation.
This fast-growing niche rewards the company with impressive top-line growth. In the quarter ended March 31, 2013, the company reported revenue growth of 12% year-over-year in constant currency terms, while projecting full year growth of 17% year over year.
At nearly 200,000 orders per day in the second quarter, Vistaprint is a sure leader in the space. It's also maturing. The company reduced its aggressive cross-promotional marketing to invest in the consumer. Customers were turned off by the company's non-stop email campaigns and checkout upsells, which it has since removed from the site. The move should help retain customers who simply want a simple step-by-step purchase of necessary office supplies.
Massive bottom line growth potential
Vistaprint operates in a very competitive industry. Open your local phone book or search Google for promotional companies near you – you'll find hundreds in a city of any true size.
With competition comes margin compression. The biggest cost this industry faces is the cost of customer acquisition. Financial supplements reveal that as a percentage of revenue, marketing and selling costs are higher than the cost of each product.
The high cost of customer acquisition may soon level off, however, as the company's growth phase ends and repeat orders make up significantly more of its quarterly revenue. Here's a chart of its advertising costs and cost of customer acquisition over time:
The company's investments in its customer may soon pay off, however. In another slide, Vistaprint reveals that its type-in customers (those who go directly to the site by typing the domain name into their browser) are a rapidly-growing portion of its customer base.
As more customers come to the site via direct type in, its advertising costs should plummet, leading to rapidly growing margins. Remember, advertising takes 25 cents of every $1 of the company's revenue. If in five years its marketing could be cut by 20% (hardly a big change, given the large share of search spending in its budget) the company's income from operations would more than double.
Not to mention, its repeat customers spend substantially more per order than its new customers ($98 vs. $50 in the first quarter of 2013).
Growing in brick and mortar locations
Vistaprint isn't just an online company. The ability through which executives have formed long-lasting, market share-stealing partnerships is exceptional. Vistaprint quietly receives outsourced projects from Staples (NASDAQ: SPLS) and FedEx Office. A partnership with Staples is a sign that Vistaprint can beat the pricing power of a worldwide office supply store with more than 2,000 retail stores.
Staples needs all the help it can get in a languishing market for brick and mortar office supplies. By partnering with Vistaprint, it can push off necessary capital investments while offering a range of printing services to its customers. Consolidation in the industry may help Staples fend off competition in the market for business supplies to massive multi-national companies, but small businesses have a multitude of choices. Amazon, Wal-Mart, Target, and other stores sell necessary office supplies at lower prices, all of which can ship products to customer's doors.
The partnerships couldn't be better for Vistaprint. The company taps into a network of thousands of office supply stores around the country for local delivery. In essence, the company can use someone else's stores to sell their wares at no cost to the company.
These strategic partnerships put even more strain on the company's local competitors, while providing FedEx Office and Staples with a greater selection of business products to draw in new customers.
Why I'm a long-term bull on Vistaprint
Vistaprint is in the mix of a bitter, very price competitive business. The only way to win a price-competitive, commodity business is to do it on price. That typically sends me running, but a few companies can pull it off without destroying shareholder value.
There is only one way to generate above-average returns on invested capital and compete on price: have the scale to best competitors. Wal-Mart (NYSE: WMT) is a perfect example of a company that operates in a commodity business (retail sales) but won its market because it has the best selection at the best price. Wal-Mart could source products less expensively, leverage national advertising to build its brand (which regional grocers could not) and compete on price to steal competitor's customers.
Wal-Mart is using its scale to invest in its customers. The company announced as much as $6 billion in price cuts to stay competitive through 2017. While such a move might bankrupt smaller grocers and superstores with thinner margins and significantly lower volumes, Wal-Mart's effective monopoly and wide moat allow it the convenience to invest in price cuts and maintain profitability. At less than 14 times future earnings expectations, Wal-Mart is worthy of an investment due it its monopolistic position.
Vistaprint is the Wal-Mart of microbusiness supplies and promotional materials.
Where small print shops do have the capacity to print low volume orders, they cannot do so cost-effectively. Local printers have high fixed costs, low operating efficiencies, and expensive direct sales overhead that force them to target mid-sized businesses in their geographic region.
Eventually, I wouldn't be surprised to see small print shops close their printers to work as a direct sales force for Vistaprint. That bodes well for investors, who can grab a piece of a fast-growing business ready for persistent, double-digit annual growth.

Thank you for participating in our poll. Here are the results so far:
A quick flash of bight headlights is a driver-to-driver warning only some know about and many police officers don't like, but a federal trial judge has ruled it is protected free speech. In Minnesota, the rules aren't so clear.
Many languages evolve and change over time, and it seems that flashing headlights to another driver on the road is hardly a universal symbol for anything these days. Yet, in many areas, a couple of flashes can signal there is a cop waiting up the road with a speed gun -- and a federal trial judge in Missouri says those speed trap warnings are constitutionally protected free speech.
"I think, at this point, the case may be unsettled," CLA Law Professor Eugene Volokh -- the go-to expert on the topic, said.
According to Volokh, intent is what counts.
"What was he saying? Watch out for police or watch out and drive safely?" he questions.
In Minnesota, there is no specific law preventing drivers from warning other motorists about speed traps, but that doesn't mean anyone who tries it out won't get a ticket. State law says headlights must be on continuously a half hour before sunset and after sunrise, but high-beams may not be used within 1,000 feet of an oncoming vehicle. That may allow officers to initiate a stop.
"Officers can certainly stop someone," John Elder, with the Minneapolis Police Department, confirmed. "It's up to the officer whether they want to issue a ticket, but they can certainly stop for it."
NOTE: Subsequent to our broadcast, Fox 9 News learned of a legal decision in Minnesota -- Sarber v. Commissioner of Public Safety -- in which an appellate court found that briefly flashing high beams at an oncoming car is not a traffic violation.
These days, warnings tend to be more high-tech anyway. Waze is a traffic app that encourages drivers to report police activity -- including whether the cops are visible or hidden. Of course, police can also pull over a driver they suspect of texting behind the wheel too.
The Minnesota State Patrol said their main concern with flashing headlights to communicate with other drivers isn't keeping speed traps a secret. Rather, it's about avoiding creating additional distractions on the roads.
"It's really a traffic safety issue for us -- not so much for warning other drivers," Lt. Eric Roeske said.

A judge denied bail for four men charged in connection with a shooting at a Chicago park that injured a 3-year-old boy and 12 others. All four appeared before a Cook County judge Tuesday wearing street clothes.
Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy said the gunmen opened fire on the group in retaliation for an earlier shooting in which one of them was slightly wounded. He said there was no specific target, but that the shooters went to the park because it was rival gang territory.
"There's a super-heated group of gunmen who were victims and offenders," McCarthy said. "This individual was a victim of gun violence and then became an offender."
RELATED: 13 wounded in gang shooting at Chicago park, assault rifle used
McCarthy said Tuesday all four are each charged with three felony counts of attempted murder in the first degree and three counts aggravated battery in Thursday's attack in Cornell Square Park on the southwest side.
Investigators believe Tabari Young, 22, was the principal gunman and Bryon Champ, 21, was also opened fire. Convicted felon Brad Jett, 22, is the suspected look out. Kewane Gatewood, 20, allegedly supplied the military-grade weapon that Young fired.
"Today we bring four criminals to justice for their roles in the shooting of 13 people," McCarthy said. Still, Chicago police said the investigation continues.
Young and Jett were charged on Tuesday, while Champ and Gatewood were charged Monday night. Police said Gatewood and Champ were scheduled to appear in bond court Tuesday, and Young and Jett are expected to appear Wednesday.
Among those injured in the shooting were two teenagers and 3-year-old Deonta Howard, who is recovering from surgery after being shot near his ear.
There was a basketball game going on at the Back of the Yards park, located near 51st and Wood. The mass shooting took place about 45 minutes before the park's 11 p.m. curfew.
"Our officers and our detectives have worked tirelessly in partnership with the community, to solve this case and hold the criminals who committed this senseless act of violence responsible for their actions," Supt. Garry McCarthy said in a statement.
The mayhem left 3-year-old Deonta "Tay-man" Howard with a bullet wound to the head and drew renewed national attention to Chicago's violence.
Deonta has undergone two surgeries and is expected to have more, Pastor Corey Brooks said Monday. The boy is aware and can shake his head, said Brooks, who has been in contact with the family.
The shooting allegedly was revenge for a minor graze wound Gatewood suffered several hours earlier in the 5200 block of South Paulina after a quarrel with gang rivals.
Prosecutors say the four are members of the Blackstone street gang. The park where they opened fire was inside territory frequented by members of the Gangster Disciples. Police said they don't believe they were targeting specific people.
Police said Gatewood and Champ were arrested Saturday night in an abandoned building in the 5200 block of South Marshfield, a few blocks from the chaotic park shooting.
Police have said some of the victims in the park were members of the Gangster Disciples and the shooters were suspected of being affiliated with the Black P Stones.
Champ's criminal record includes a 2012 conviction for aggravated unlawful use of a weapon and a 2011 conviction for receiving stolen property. He was sentenced to Cook County Jail boot camp for the gun-possession conviction and had received probation in the other case, records show.
Young has been arrested more than a dozen times, police said.
Mayor Rahm Emanuel applauded the Chicago Police Department in a statement Tuesday, after the charges were announced. He said they proved, once again, why they are the best – by arresting the four men quickly. But he also said great police work is only one part of the strategy to keep Chicago safe from violent crime.
"We also need laws that reflect our values when it comes to gun crimes and carry real consequences for illegal gun possession," Emanuel said in a statement.
Emanuel says there should be a three-year minimum penalty for illegally carrying a gun and one of those charged should have been behind bars at the time of the shooting.
"As we invest heavily in programs for youth, in new policing strategies, and in building supports for those most likely to fall into gangs," Emanuel concluded, "we also need a three-year mandatory minimum bill for gun crimes."
On Monday Chicago Police Supt. Garry McCarthy pointed to the case to highlight the need for stricter gun laws.
"He received boot camp for that gun crime and was back out on the streets to be a part of this senseless shooting," McCarthy said. "That is unacceptable. To truly address violence for the long-term we need state and federal laws that keep illegal guns out of our communities and provide real punishment for the criminals who use them."
McCarthy said that at least 16 rounds of 7.62 mm bullets, ammunition used in military-style rifles, were fired into the park. He noted last week it was "a miracle" no one was killed.
Police had recorded 306 murders and 1,402 shooting incidents this year in Chicago as of Sept. 15, down 20 and 22 percent, respectively, from the same period in 2012. Police say overall violent crime is down about 15 percent, according to new figures released Monday.

Small watershed case studies are being conducted to complement the national assessment. These studies will provide in-depth assessments of water quality and other benefits at a finer scale than is possible for the National Assessment. Presently there are three CEAP watershed categories:
The National Agricultural Library maintains a dynamic bibliography from 2003 to the present. These bibliographies produce automatically updating search results for articles and publications produced on findings from Conservation Effects Assessment Project (CEAP) supported studies. They include journal articles, reports and studies by CEAP scientists and researchers, fact sheets and the CEAP bibliographies.
Soil and Water Conservation Society — NIFA-CEAP Watershed Synthesis Study
As part of the CEAP Watershed Assessments, USDA's National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) and NRCS jointly funded 13 projects to evaluate the effects of cropland and pastureland conservation practices on spatial and temporal trends in water quality at the watershed scale. The new book, fact sheets, and webcast are available, August 2012
Journal of Soil and Water Conservation — Special Issue on CEAP Competitive Grant Watershed Projects
The November/December 2010 issue (Volume 65, Number 6) of the Journal of Soil and Water Conservation, published by the Soil and Water Conservation Society, is a special issue dedicated to CEAP competitive grant watershed projects. Features include an overview of the original 13 National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA)-sponsored watershed assessment studies by Dr. Deanna Osmond of North Carolina State University, principal investigator for one of the two synthesis studies on the NIFA watershed studies. The issue also includes 12 research papers detailing findings from individual NIFA watershed assessment studies.
Journal of Soil and Water Conservation — Special Issue on ARS Competitive Grant Watershed Projects
The November/December 2008 issue (Volume 63, Number 6) of the Journal of Soil and Water Conservation, published by the Soil and Water Conservation Society, is a special issue dedicated to CEAP. Features include a special status report on the first five years of CEAP and an article by NRCS, ARS, and NIFA leadership outlining a new direction for CEAP. The 316-page issue includes 22 research papers detailing ARS watershed assessment studies and model development, plus a summary of the ARS scientific results to date. Two NRCS CEAP Special Emphasis Watersheds and one NIFA CEAP Watershed are also highlighted. The front section of the journal includes 12 articles on conservation policy, practice, and technology transfer related to CEAP.

URL: http://www.entrepreneur.com/answer/221315The procedures for implementing a change like this should be set out in your organization's bylaws, policies and procedures, or in your state's laws governing not-for-profit corporations. Generally, however, it is the responsibility of the board of directors to manage the affairs of the not-for-profit organization and to make marketing-related decisions on behalf of the organization. Decisions that tend to be left to the membership have to do with changing the rights and privileges of membership, voting on who will be directors on the board, and anything to do with changing the mission of the organization. However, a new name (even if a DBA) could go either way. Check with a local attorney on what the best procedure is for you. Otherwise, there is no harm in taking the safe route of giving notice of a membership meeting to discuss and vote on the new name. Once again, your bylaws or policies and procedures should outline the voting procedure.

Outside groups have spent more than $3.4 million blanketing Utah's airwaves with negative ads questioning Rep. Jim Matheson's honesty and accusing his challenger, Saratoga Springs Mayor Mia Love, of being soft on crime.

The unprecedented campaign funded by political parties and largely unregulated super PACs appears to be picking up steam in Utah's 4th Congressional District contest, one of the most watched House races in the nation. Of the $3.4 million total, more than $1 million has been spent just since the start of October.
Matheson says he's no fan of the spending, even if more than half of it — $1.8 million —has gone to bolster his bid for a seventh term in office.
"I think we are all troubled by how much money is in politics these days," he said. "It tends to push the candidates more off to the sidelines, and that is the thing I find bothersome about it."
Bothersome or not, Matheson helped funnel money to some of the outside groups beating up on Love through his role as co-chairman of the Blue Dog Political Action Committee.
The group of moderate House Democrats sent $700,000 to Center Forward and an equal amount to the House Majority PAC in August. Since then, those two organizations have spent a combined $1.2 million producing and distributing negative ads against Love.
Matheson said he has not coordinated with the PACs, which would violate the law, and he pointed out the Blue Dog donations went out with a letter that included this line: "Please note that this contribution is not earmarked or directed for any particular use or activity."
"There are a lot of Blue Dogs in tough races, and we did not tell them how to spend the money," he said.
Center Forward has spent $2 million on ads in just four races, with nearly $800,000 of that focused on Utah's 4th District. The group is led by a former Blue Dog Democrat and was previously named the Blue Dog Research Forum, though it did spend some money supporting moderate Republicans earlier this year. House Majority PAC, which has spent almost $380,000 helping Matheson, has been active in many close House races nationwide.
Matheson defended the donations to super PACs, even if he has repeatedly decried their impact on his race.
"Why would anyone want to tie one hand behind their back?" he said. "Whether you like the rules of the game or not, you have to play by the rules that are out there."
Matheson has the support of six outside groups, while Love has been primarily backed by the National Republican Congressional Committee, which is controlled by House Republicans. She has recently received support from the tea party group FreedomWorks and the conservative group Center for Individual Freedom.
As of yet, Matheson has received no help from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, the counterpoint to the NRCC. But the DCCC has reserved some ad space and may enter the fray as early as this week.
The outside combatants have funded hours and hours worth of ads, almost all of which are negative. Viewers who spend any time watching Utah's main broadcast channels have undoubtedly seen spots with ominous narrators, grainy black and white photos and claims that often stretch the truth.
Matheson argues he has faced more attack ads than Love has, while Love says it's the other way around.
"I have definitely taken the bigger punch," said Matheson. "Because everything the NRCC has done has been negative."
"I disagree with that," Love told The Salt Lake Tribune. "I absolutely believe that our campaign has seen a lot more negative ads."
University of Utah political scientist Matthew Burbank said it has seemed pretty even to him, and he's not surprised by the high level of interest from national players, given Matheson's sticking power in a Republican state. Love is also a historic candidate. If she wins, she would be the first black woman to be elected to Congress as a Republican.
"Both are making good use of the airwaves, and both are following essentially the same strategy," Burbank said. "Start with positive ads about themselves early on and as the campaign has tightened move to more negative ads."
Love said she has attempted to correct the record when she feels an ad is misleading, such as the Patriot Majority USA ads that have said crime in Saratoga Springs has skyrocketed in her term as mayor, when the rate of crime is far less than in Utah County and the state as a whole.Next Page >

Choosing an Obstetrician
Let's face it—like it or not, your obstetrician/gynecologist (OB-GYN) is someone with whom you're going to be getting up close and personal. OB-GYNS specialize in the care of women, often dealing not only with their reproductive health, but also with general primary and preventive health care. Many women seek medical care from their OB-GYNS long after their final pregnancies.
This article focuses on the "OB" part of the OB-GYN. Pregnancy and childbirth are life-changing events, and when you're trying to find the right doctor to usher you through gestation and deliver your bundle of joy, it's important you choose someone in whose care you feel comfortable and secure. This may take some planning and preparation on your part—including speaking with prospective obstetricians to find a doctor who has views similar to yours concerning labor and delivery. When interviewing staff at an obstetrician's office and ultimately the doctor, consider the following criteria:
The Basics
- Is the doctor affiliated with the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (indicating that he or she graduated from an accredited residency program and is board-certified)? You can check at the ACOG website.
- Does the doctor accept your insurance? What are the doctor's fees?
- Is the doctor's office convenient to your home or office? If you become pregnant, you'll visit the doctor more than a dozen times—maybe more if you have a high-risk pregnancy—so make sure that getting to the office isn't a hassle.
- Do you feel more comfortable with a male or female doctor? It is important that you are comfortable talking with your physician and asking questions of him or her.
- If English isn't your first language, does the doctor speak your dominant language?
- Does the office have weekend or evening hours that fit your schedule, or will you have to take off from work every time you need an appointment? Note how long you may have to wait to get an appointment. Additionally, how does the office handle questions that arise between appointments? Will the obstetrician return your calls the same day, or will a nurse handle routine questions?
- How does the doctor handle after-hours emergencies? Who is on call when your physician is unavailable?
- Is the doctor affiliated with a hospital whose care you are comfortable with? Doctors only have privileges at certain hospitals, so if you've got your heart set on delivering at a new age birthing center with the whirlpool tubs and on-site massage therapists, you need to make sure your OB-GYN can see you there. If your pregnancy is high-risk, you'll want to deliver at a hospital with a NICU.
- Can you get recommendations from friends or family members who have an OB-GYN they like?
One Doctor or Many?
It's important to consider whether your physician is a sole practitioner or a member of a large group practice. This will have a significant impact on the nature of your relationship with your OB-GYN.
If you choose a sole practitioner, you'll see the same doctor at every appointment and be able to develop a close rapport with her. You'll know whom to expect when the time comes to deliver your baby (though it's a good idea to ask who delivers babies when the doctor is on vacation or handling another delivery). For many patients, it's important to have this personal relationship with a doctor, to be able to know she remembers you and is keeping a close eye on your progress. However, a sole practitioner is not likely to have the resources at her office to perform routine procedures like blood tests and ultrasound, so you'll likely be referred to local labs or the hospital for these. Also, a single doctor isn't as likely to have a wide range of specialties, so if you need treatment for issues like infertility or cancer, you may have to be referred to a new practice.

EDMONTON - The Edmonton Eskimos, in a three-way dogfight for first in the West Division and bracing for hundreds of rabid Saskatchewan Roughriders fans invading their house this weekend had one more thing to deal with Friday -- burying the hatchet over a shovel.
Eskimos defensive tackle Xzavie Jackson was welcomed back on the practice field after a bizarre fight Thursday with teammate Aaron Fiacconi that led to Jackson going after him with a shovel.
"I'm very disappointed," said Jackson, sporting sunglasses and a bandage over a swollen eye, after the team's final run-through prior to Saturday's game against the Roughriders (6 p.m. ET, TSN).
"That's not me. That's not my character. I know I could've made a better choice. I've apologized to my teammates and that's all."
Fiacconi, the starting centre, said it's all part of the wild emotions of a violent game, but noted, "We have to have some kind of control out there. It got away from us a little bit yesterday and it won't happen again.
"He (Jackson) was angry, justifiably, over what happened. In the end, I doubt he would have done something with the implement. He's a good-headed guy.
"We've made our peace."
The dustup occurred during practice with Fiacconi getting his work in at three-quarter speed while Jackson, a spot starter and practice-squad player, came at him at a much higher tempo.
"They couldn't agree on what pace that team-oriented drill should be played at," said GM Danny Maciocia, who was watching from the sidelines at the time.
Finally, Fiacconi had had enough. Wham wham wham -- he rained fists on Jackson while no teammates intervened.
As media and others looked on Jackson (whose first name is pronounced ex-ZAY-vee) stormed off the field, yelling and whipping off his practice jersey. He walked past a nearby dumpster, spotted a long-handled metal shovel, turned on his heels and stormed back onto the practice field marching toward Fiacconi.
Maciocia, standing nearby, jumped into action, standing in the path of the six-foot four, 240-pound lineman, gently putting his hand on his chest and gesturing to the shovel.
"I just said, 'What are you planning on doing with that? Do you realize the repercussions?' Maciocia said Friday. "I'm almost sure he had already come to that conclusion.
"I don't think he would have carried out an incident where he would have swung a shovel and tried to strike someone."
Head coach Richie Hall, defensive co-ordinator Jim Daley and trainer T.D. Forss also stepped in to calm down the 25-year-old from Vallejo, Calif., who was signed in March after brief stints in the NFL with the Philadelphia Eagles and Cincinnati Bengals.
Maciocia said given the fact it was a heat-of-the-moment, on-field scrap and not the resolution of some long simmering feud between the players, it was agreed after a meeting with Hall to shake hands and move on.
Hall, in a news conference, said it's unfortunate the matter had to be dealt with publicly at all.
"I think when it comes to dirty laundry, there are things that should remain behind closed doors," he said.
He bristled slightly when asked that, given there are no consequences for Jackson, it could signal the Eskimos ultimately tolerate such behaviour.
"I know the players know that it's not tolerated," he said.
The Eskimos are coming off a heart-stopping 31-27 win over the Riders in Regina last week. They look to sweep the season series Saturday and keep pace in the Western Conference as the season enters the stretch run.
Saskatchewan, Calgary and Edmonton are all at 6-4, with the B.C. Lions one game back at 5-6.
Saskatchewan head coach Ken Miller said last-week's crowd-silencing game-winning 68-yard touchdown pass from Eskimo quarterback Ricky Ray to Maurice Mann with 80 seconds to go "was devastating."
"Revenge for me isn't a good motivator, but on the other hand knowing we had an opportunity to win and have an opportunity to win this coming game can be internal motivation," he said.
About 54,000 tickets have been sold and Saskatchewan's watermelon-headed faithful are expected to be there en masse and in full voice.
"It feels good, especially in a situation where they (the Eskimos) may have a little momentum," said quarterback Darian Durant. "For our fans to be here, it shows the support of this organization, and shows the steps we're taking to become one of the elite teams in this league."
NOTES: Eskimo kick-returner Tristan Jackson and safety Scott Gordon, both coming off knee injuries, are close to returning to the lineup but are not expected to play Saturday.

Sean has been cranky all night, sleeping and waking up crying and falling asleep in mid cry. We didn't know why and I kept feeding him because he was also showing nursing cues and at the nipple he was relaxed, quiet and would sleep. DH went to change him and realized he felt warm and his hands, which were covered with mittens, we kind of warm and clammy. We took his temp rectally and at first it was 99.9 and then 99.7F. We had him in his zipper, footed pjs and have now stripped him down to a onsie and he is nursing quietly at the moment. We plan to retake his temp in about 20mins, 30mins since the first temp. We don't know if we should bring him into the urgent care or is his fever not bad enough? What can we do for him to make him better!!
I hate being a FTM!!!! Hoping you ladies can help me!!!
I also wanted to add, I have been sick. Something with my stomach, having diarrhea and been taking Imodium to stop the pain from hemorrhoids as well which are horrible due to the intense urge to push on the potty and nothing coming out. Could I have had a fever and not known it and now he has it?

Alan Moore is At It Again... No Wait, It's Jim Starlin This Time!
- Written by Jude Terror on Tuesday, May 29 2012 and posted in News with Benefits
Jim Starlin has mixed feelings about seeing one of his creations on the big screen in The Avengers. (Spoilers Here)
(Spoilers ahead for anyone so full of fail they have not seen The Avengers yet...)
(Seriously, don't blame this reporter if you're still reading this...)
(Come on, get out of here! Go on, get!)
Ok, now that we're all alone, Jim Starlin spoke to LA Times' Hero Complex last week about his character, Thanos, who (SPOILER) appears in one of the end credits scenes in The Avengers. Thanos, (SPOILER) who is in love with Marvel's female embodiment of death, is famous in comics for (SPOILER) attempting to kill the universe multiple times to gain favor with his beloved. Thanos famously starred in Starlin's 90s comics mega-crossover-event Infinity Gauntlet, as well the follow-ups Infinity War and Infinity Crusade, which were (SPOILER) increasingly more lackluster than the original. The appearance by Thanos seems to indicate the villain will play a major role in the future of the Avengers movie franchise, provided, of course, it doesn't get rebooted before a sequel comes out, which can never be ruled out as a possibility. This is what Starlin had to say:
"It's nice to see my work recognized as being worth something beyond the printed page, and it was very cool seeing Thanos up on the big screen. But this is the second film that had something I created for Marvel in it - the Infinity Gauntlet in Thor being the other - and both films I had to pay for my own ticket to see them. Financial compensation to the creators of these characters doesn't appear to be part of the equation."
Really, it's only fair. The Avengers has made over a billion dollars worldwide so far, and movie tickets cost less than half that amount (as long as you avoid 3D).
The debate over creator rights in comics has been raging for the past few years, with the most notable example being bearded creator Alan Moore's disgust with Warner Bros and DC Comics over their exploitation of the Watchmen franchise (coming soon to a toaster near you). Starlin seems easier to please in this regard, but we all know it's a slippery slope. You start with free movie tickets, and, before you know it, you're fairly compensating the creators of characters your corporation has made money on for 75 years.
Starlin is also hoping that the interest in Thanos will shed some attention on the movie projects he trying to develop himself: Dreadstar, Breed, and Thinning the Predators.

Materelli Rotating Whip Finisher
Reviewer: A viewer from Boyd, WI US
If you don't have a whip finisher, you should get one. The rotating whip finisher is easy to use and very efficient. Usually I'll wrap 3-5 times around before finishing the knot. You won't really need head cement on your flies if you do two whip knots, as the knots are very strong and durable.
stop rotating!
Reviewer: A viewer from Vineland, New Jersey US
I just into fly tying and I needed a whip finisher well at first is was just so smooth and easy to use. It's only been a few day's now and it don't rotate like it's supposed to it just get's stuck. Basically it don't rotate. <i>J. Stockard comments: We will be happy to replace any product that does not perform as expected, no questions asked. Problems with our JS tools have been very rare.</i>
