House HUD Bill Would Cut Assistance to Low-Income Renters
May 22, 2014
The House Appropriations Committee this week approved a fiscal year 2015 funding bill covering the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) that makes disproportionately deep cuts in housing assistance for low-income families. Congress is operating under tight spending limits set by the Budget Control Act (BCA) and the …

Young Smoke
- Artist: Young Smoke
- Links: Young Smoke Soundcloud and Young Smoke Bandcamp
At just 18, Young Smoke a.k.a. Chicago's David Davis has carved out an idiosyncratic and very listenable niche within footwork. Producing from a young age and coming with an intentional conceptual angle, the music on 'Space Zone' carries all the hallmarks and framework of classic footwork -heavy bass and 160bpm rhythms- but with a lightness of touch and the conceptual abstraction of space themes. Where older producers reference space through typically sampling the spacey funk of the 70's era to repetitive and aggressive effect, Young Smoke's music uses self-made samples from his arsenal of software synthesisers. The result has an aquatic atmosphere that engages the listener's imagination and hints at narratives behind the music. Also, rarely for footwork, he's not afraid to inject his tracks with overt melodies.

Posted Aug 04, 2012
CARDIFF, Wales (AP) — After a succession of near misses, London 2012 was supposed to be when Brazil's talented women's soccer team finally got Olympic gold. Instead, defeat to Japan handed them their earliest exit ever from the games.
For Marta, widely regarded as the best player in the women's game, the 2-0 defeat was especially hard. The 26-year-old captain has been at the heart of the team for eight years, during which it has entered most tournaments as favorites but never lifted a trophy.
Marta will be young enough to play in the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Games in front of home crowds, but she raised doubts over whether she would still be competing.
"God only knows whether I will still be playing then," she said after Friday's defeat.
Marta is not the only player in the squad wondering whether she will play in 2016. For veterans Grazielle, Rosana, Maycon and Andreia, London 2012 was their fourth Olympics. Midfielder Formiga made it five by appearing in the 2012 Games.
"It is vital that we focus on youth development," Marta said. "The care that is given to the senior Brazil team also needs to be applied to the youth teams, so that we can do better in four years."
The players who stopped to talk to the media after the match — and the coach — felt Brazil should have won the game.
While the South Americans enjoyed 64 percent possession, they didn't create many more chances than the world champions, who passed the ball quickly and defended well against a taller and stronger team. In the second half, Brazil's feared strikers managed three shots on goal, only one more than Japan.
Brazil's form in the group stage was also mixed. After demolishing Cameroon 5-0 in the opener, Brazil struggled to beat New Zealand 1-0, then got beaten by Britain, which itself was knocked out of the competition Saturday by Canada.
"It was not the result I was expecting, and nor was it fair. We played better than Japan," Marta said. "We played very well. We just had to score the first goal — that would have made all the difference."
At the 2007 World Cup in China, Brazil played well and seemed poised for its first title, but was stopped by Germany in the final, losing 2-0. It came in third at the 1999 World Cup in the United States.
Until London, the team's Olympic record was also studded with near misses. It reached the final at the 2004 Athens Games and the 2008 Beijing Games, but lost both times to the United States in tight contests. Brazil was fourth in 1996 and 2000.
Striker Christiane said Japan took the women's game more seriously.
"The problem in our country is that people don't understand women's football," she said. "We don't have the long-term projects as they do in Japan."
Erika, too, felt it was a tough loss for Brazil.
"It hurts a lot more when you know you've played a great match, especially in the first half when we dominated them for 20 minutes," she said. "We played better today, and it hurts a lot more when you play a good match and still lose."
Coach Jorge Barcellos was already thinking of 2016.
"We will have to work a lot during the next four years before 2016 in Rio de Janeiro. We want to get the title there because we have never had it before," he said. "There would be perfect."

I have certainly known more men destroyed by the desire to have wife and child and to keep them in comfort than I have seen destroyed by drink and harlots. [William Butler Yeats, "Autobiography"]
Replaced Old English hiwscipe. As an adjective from c.1600; with the meaning "suitable for a family," by 1807. Family values first recorded 1966. Phrase in a family way "pregnant" is from 1796. Family circle is 1809; family man "man devoted to wife and children, man inclined to lead a domestic life" is 1856 (earlier it meant "thief," 1788, from family in a slang sense of "the fraternity of thieves").
Happy family an assemblage of animals of diverse habits and propensities living amicably, or at least quietly, together in one cage. [Century Dictionary, 1902]
The phrase is attested from 1844.

NORTH CAROLINA SCHNAUZER RESCUE, INC. (NCSR) is a 501c3 non-profit, all-volunteer group that works in North Carolina to rescue, assess through fostering, care for medical needs, and adopt out pure-bred miniature schnauzers. We also strive to educate the public on schnauzer-specific and other canine issues, and support spay/neuter for all family pets to help reduce pet overpopulation. NCSR does not have a central shelter location - our rescue group is made up of foster homes throughout the state of North Carolina, with concentrations of membership in the greater Raleigh, Greensboro, Winston-Salem, Charlotte, Asheville, and Wilmington areas.
NCSR does not adopt to homes that have electronic/underground fencing. Although some have succssfully used this type of fencing to contain dogs of all breeds, NCSR believes it to be an unsafe and unreliable method of containment for a rescued Schnauzer. Schnauzers, as a breed, have a high prey drive and will brave getting "zapped" for a chance to chase a squirrel or to meet another dog on the outside of the fence. They will not, however, brave the "zap" to get back into the yard. This leaves the dog roaming free on the outside of the fence and in danger of cars, strange dogs, and other dangers. Because rescue dogs are often nervous in new surroundings, they can be prone to run if scared or startled. For the well-being and safety of our rescues, we will not adopt a rescued Schnauzer to a home with e lectronic/underground fencing.

We thank you in advance for your care and support of needy miniature schnauzers in North Carolina!
To rescue, rehabilitate, and re-home abandoned or displaced purebred miniature schnauzers in North Carolina.
Our goal is to help displaced mini schnauzers find permanent adoptive homes, no matter what situation they may have come from - owner or breeder turn-ins, family homes that can no longer care for them, or shelters where they have ended up as strays. We promote responsible pet ownership that includes training, proper nutrition and veterinary care, and a lifelong commitment on the part of adoptive families.
We believe all family pets should be spayed or neutered to help control the pet overpopulation problem, and we hope this will someday put ourselves out of having to do rescue!
Having a dog as a family member is a privilege, not a right. You must be prepared to care for your dog emotionally, medically and financially, and all our rescued dogs must go to homes where they will be kept as indoor dogs, not left outside alone for long periods of time.
A fence is not a requirement for adoption, but all rescues should be either leashed or confined by a fence when they are out of doors.
The dedicated members of NCSR spend many personal hours devoting their time and energy to every dog, and as a smaller rescue group that specializes in miniature schnauzers as a breed, our goal is to provide one-on-one attention to our dogs in foster care so that we can more thoroughly assess their behavior, and be more capable of making the best possible adoptive match for each one. We do not have a centralized shelter location - all our adoptable dogs are fostered with our members (all across NC) so that they can experience a loving home environment while awaiting adoption. We greatly appreciate your interest in rescue - we are always looking for new members to help, and for wonderful adoptive homes for miniature schnauzers!

The CanadianGardenJoy Story
I have been blogging since May of 2007.
Learning every year about garden blogging, in a self taught manner which usually leads to a lot of hair pulling , groaning, and expletives that set the cats flying to less stressful corners of the house.
I am a retired army wife who has been fortunate to live literally from the edge of the east coast of Canada, to the edge of the west coast.
We eventually settled in Kingston, a small city on Lake Ontario in the garden zone 5b.
A highlight of our postings was living in the Netherlands for four years.
South Limburg province, which is nestled between Belgium and Germany.
We lived in the village of Schinveld and worked in the small city of Brunssum for NATO.
This was where the garden bug ingrained itself DEEPLY into me.
To see what literal Edens that were created in such tiny spaces, of their beautiful quaint homes.
Seeing fields upon fields, of bold colour swaths of tulips .. it took my breath away.
Even an "almost" gardener had be changed with seeing such vistas.
So, my garden blog ... it has also impacted my life in a huge way.
It has connected me to a vast community of gardeners that are amazing people.
There is something very special about gardeners .. we feel more connected to the earth and it's creatures.
My niche is as a non professional,a lot less demanding that way .. an everyday gardener who learns constantly both about blogging, my garden, and more so about individual plants, and whether they flourish or fail in my 5b zone.
I have also written about mail order companies and what my experiences have been from them.
This has influenced some of my fellow gardeners on whether to try a certain company out or not.
Garden blogging is a vast highway of information exchange between us all, what ever zone we are in.
We all benefit from each other's knowledge and experience.
A fantastic perk to this connection is amazing encouragement from fellow garden bloggers.
Every day gardeners,(well seasonal ones as in north of the line from all year round?) that have racked up extensive and practical knowledge of plants in their gardens.
The name for my blog came from two previous attempts to feel "just right".
Third time lucky ? I AM Canadian .. and add my name to "garden" ? presto !
This is me : )
P.S. I thought I might as well be honest about how difficult it is for me to physically garden now.
I have a number of painful chronic conditions but most times I can over ride how I feel so I can connect with my garden .. it is hard to describe what that connection is unless you are another gardener .. then you understand that feeling .. during our long winters I am able to rest and build up my strength to hit the ground running come Spring .. it will be a very sad day for me when I can't do that.
I always hope to hear from other gardeners who have physical problems and how they deal with it all.

Good morning,
I was searching for some pieces of my china (PINE TREE pattern) when I came across your site (January 2009).
I also have the Pine Tree china. My mom passed her china down to me last year and I just recently pulled it out of the boxes to put in a cabinet. Since we seriously downsized last year, I had nowhere to put this china and so started the hunt for the cabinet.
There's an interesting story about how mom acquired the china. Coming from Italy in the 50's and trying to build a life in Canada, items like china were considered luxuries that were not priorities.
In the early 60's, mom believe it was Dominion grocery stores in Toronto offered stamps (based on money spent) to apply towards purchases of china. They displayed specific pieces for a period of time and you could use your stamps or stamps and money to acquire the pieces. Over time, she built a 12 place setting of rimmed soup bowls, 8 inch salad plates, cups, saucers, the coffee pot, cream and sugar bowls, an oval serving platter and the covered soup tureen. I don't know why she never added the dinner plates.
Christmas Eve dinner always started with the soup tureen being brought to the table.
I have recently purchased 12 white dinner plates to use with the china. I am hoping to find 12 burnished copper charger plates. Can't wait until Thanksgiving. Mom has no idea that I've unpacked the china and I hope she'll be pleased.

Hello Roxanne and thank you for taking the time to comment !
That is an amazing story about the Pine Tree china your mom collected and I am sure she will be totally delighted to see it come out for Thanksgiving !!
What pieces I have , I remember as a very young child having it only for Christmas dinner and that they were in our home in the late 50's .
I have no idea where they came from but I always loved them .. they are so pretty aren't they ?
I know your dinner will really please your mom : )

The Official Website of the Louisiana Department of Revenue
Returns and payments are due on or before May 15 of the following year. For fiscal
year taxpayers, returns and payments are due on the 15th day of the fifth month
after the close of the fiscal year.
The tax is determined using tax tables furnished by the Department of Revenue. The
tax rate is applied in a graduated scale using the taxpayer's filing status and
the taxpayer's Louisiana taxable income. Recent changes to the tax rate are reflected
as follows:
Revised Statute 47:103 allows a six-month extension of time to file the individual
income tax return to be granted on request. The extension request must be made electronically
before the state tax filing due date, which is May 15 for calendar year filers or
the 15th day of the fifth month after the close of a fiscal year.
In the past, taxpayers were allowed to request a state income tax filing extension
by filing a paper state extension. Beginning with the 2012 income tax year, taxpayers
will be required to electronically request a state individual income tax
filing extension on or before the May 15 due date. Paper state extension request
will not be accepted.
This new requirement is the result of changing technologies and processing procedures
within the department.
The three options for requesting an extension are as follows:
Tax preparers can also utilize the bulk extension filing application to submit multiple
extension requests. This application can be used by any firm who has an Electronic
Filing Identification Number (EFIN) registered with LDR or any taxpayer who has
a current Louisiana Account Number listed with LDR.
Taxpayers seeking a waiver of the electronic filing of an extension due to a hardship
can request an extension via LDR's IVR phone system (option #2 above) or can request
a waiver by calling the Special Programs Division at 225-219-2200.
An extension does not allow an extension of time to pay the tax due. Payments received
after the return due date will be charged interest and late payment penalty.
Payments cannot be made through the bulk extension filing application on
LDR's website. If you need to make a payment, you must submit an extension request
electronically and:
Please do not use Form R-540V, Individual Income Tax Electronic Filing Payment Voucher,
to submit an extension payment. Form R-540V is to be used only by tax filers that
have filed their tax returns through electronic filing and need to make a payment.

Resident taxpayers who are required to file a federal individual income tax return
are required to file a Louisiana income tax return,
IT-540 reporting all of their income. If a Louisiana resident earns income
in another state, that income is also taxable by Louisiana. A temporary absence
from Louisiana does not automatically change your domicile for individual income
tax purposes. As a resident taxpayer, you are allowed a credit on Schedule G for
the net tax liability paid to another state if that income is included on the Louisiana
Residents may be allowed a deduction from taxable income of certain income items
considered exempt by Louisiana law. For example, Louisiana residents who are members
of the armed services and who were stationed outside the state on active duty for
120 or more consecutive days are entitled to a deduction of up to $30,000. In each
case, the amount of income subject to a deduction must be included on the Louisiana
resident return before the deduction can be allowed.
Nonresident and part-year resident taxpayers who are required to file a federal
individual income tax return are required to file a Louisiana income tax return, IT-540B
reporting all income earned from Louisiana sources. The calculation for the
IT-540B requires that a taxpayer report all income from all sources in order
to determine a ratio of Louisiana adjusted gross income to Federal adjusted gross
income. Only income earned from Louisiana sources, however, is taxed.
Gambling winnings earned in Louisiana is considered to be Louisiana sourced income.
A nonresident who received gambling winnings from Louisiana sources and who is required
to file a federal income tax return must file a Louisiana return reporting the Louisiana
income earned. If the amount withheld is overpaid, a refund of the difference will
be issued or credited to the tax liability for the following year, based upon the
taxpayer's return.
Military personnel whose domicile (home of record) is not Louisiana are not required
to file a Louisiana income tax return on the wages earned from the military. Military
personnel who earned nonmilitary income from Louisiana sources or whose spouse earned
income from Louisiana sources are required to file a Louisiana income tax return
reporting the amount of Louisiana income.
Nonresident and part-year resident taxpayers use the
Tax Computation Worksheet to calculate the amount of Louisiana tax due based
on the amount of their Louisiana taxable income. The Tax Computation Worksheet allows
a deduction for a Personal Exemption based on filing status. A credit of $1,000
for each dependent and for each taxpayer and/or spouse whose age is 65 and over,
or who is blind, is applied in determining the amount of tax.
A nonresident individual who is a member of the following associations is considered
a professional athlete and is required to electronically file a Louisiana income
tax return, IT-540B-NRA reporting all income earned from Louisiana sources:
Income from Louisiana sources include compensation for the services rendered as
a professional athlete and all income from other Louisiana sources, such as endorsements,
royalties, and promotional advertising. The calculation of income from compensation
is based on a ratio obtained from the number of Louisiana Duty Days over the total
number of Duty Days. Duty Days is defined as the number of days that the individual
participated as an athlete from the official preseason training through the last
game in which the individual competes or is scheduled to compete.
Nonresident professional athlete taxpayers use the
Tax Computation Worksheet to calculate the amount of Louisiana tax due based
on the amount of their Louisiana taxable income. The Tax Computation Worksheet allows
a deduction for a Personal Exemption based on filing status. A credit of $1,000
for each dependent and for each taxpayer and/or spouse whose age is 65 and over,
or who is blind, is applied in determining the amount of tax.
A resident individual who is a member of the associations listed above is considered
a professional athlete and is required to electronically file a Louisiana income
tax return, IT-540 reporting all of their income.
Taxpayers must make a declaration of estimated income tax and pay estimated tax
payments if their estimated Louisiana income tax after credits and taxes withheld
is expected to exceed $1,000 for single filers and $2,000 for joint filers as required
by Revised Statute 47:116.
To calculate the estimated tax, resident taxpayers should use the current year's
Tax Tables to estimate their income tax liability based on the expected
amount of Louisiana taxable income. Taxpayers who are nonresidents or part-year
residents should use the
Tax Computation Worksheet to calculate the amount of Louisiana estimated
tax. For general information concerning calculation and payment of estimated tax,
see the estimated payment instructions, Form
IT-540ES(I). Calendar year taxpayers can pay the estimated tax in full with
the declaration, or in equal installments, on or before April 15, June 15, September
15, and January 15.
Special Provisions for Farmers or Fishermen—
Revised Statute 47:117(B) provides that if at least two-thirds of an individual's estimated gross income is from farming or
fishing, the declaration and estimated tax payment may be made any time on or before January 15 of the succeeding taxable year
without being assessed underpayment of estimated tax penalty. Revised Statute 47:116(F)
allows an the exception from the estimated tax payment requirement if the taxpayer files their individual income tax return by March 1
of the succeeding taxable year and pays the total amount due.
Exception To Estimated Payment Declaration Requirement—Revised
Statute 47:116(F) allows an exception from the estimated tax payment amendment requirement or original declaration requirement
due January 15 of the succeeding year if the taxpayer files their individual income tax return by January 31 of the succeeding year
and pays the total amount due. Filing a declaration, amended declaration, or paying the last installment by January 15th, or filing
an income tax return by January 31st, will not relieve you of the underpayment penalty if you failed to pay the estimated income
tax that was due earlier in the year.
Estimated Tax Payment Options— Taxpayers can pay the estimated tax using
any of the following options:
Revised Statute 47:118
authorizes a penalty for failure to pay or underpayment of estimated income
tax. The penalty is 12 percent annually of the underpayment amount for the period
of the underpayment.
Determination Of The Underpayment Amount
Determination Of The Underpayment Period—The underpayment period is from
the date the installment was required to be paid to whichever of the following dates
is earlier:
Penalty Exceptions—The underpayment of estimated tax penalty will not be
imposed on any installment if no declaration of estimated tax is required to be
filed because the taxpayer did not reasonably expect for their taxes to exceed $1,000
for single filers and $2,000 for joint filers as required by
Revised Statute 47:116(A), or if the total amount of all estimated tax payments
made on or before the last date prescribed for the payment of the installment equals
or exceeds the lesser of the following:
Notification Of Underpayment Of Estimated Tax Penalty
When an individual income tax return is filed with a payment in excess of $1,000
for single filers and $2,000 for joint filers, the taxpayer will be notified of
the requirement to file an estimated tax declaration and pay the estimated tax.
Based on the underpayment amount and the underpayment period, an assessment of underpayment
of estimated tax penalty will be made.
Request for Penalty Waiver
Taxpayers may request that the penalty be waived. The request must be made within
one year from the tax return's due date including any applicable extensions. If
it can be determined that the individual acted in good faith and the failure to
make the estimated payments was attributable to extraordinary circumstances beyond
the individual's control or that the individual made a declaration and paid estimated
tax in accordance with
and 117.1 before
the due date of the return without regard to any extension of time.
If it is determined that the individual acted with intentional disregard for the
state laws, the request for penalty waiver will be denied.

Footprint Network Blog - 07/2014
The Effect of Rising Temperatures on the Energy-Water Nexus
May and June this year were the hottest ever since record-keeping began in 1880, according to a new National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration report. 2014 could go down as the warmest year yet, exceeding the previous records set in 2003 and 2013.
There's no question that the Earth is warming, ancient ice is melting and sea levels are rising. Friends of Global Footprint Network are well aware of many of the risks that anthropogenic climate change poses, particularly to the world's poorest regions.
A risk that remains under-appreciated, however, is the impact that water availability will have on energy, and that constrained energy supply will have on water.
After food production, electricity generation is the second-largest consumer of water globally. Thermal power plants – those powered by coal, natural gas, oil and nuclear – consume vast amounts of water in their cooling cycles. A single nuclear reactor can consume over 15 million gallons of water per day. Power generation accounts for 41 percent of freshwater withdrawals and about three percent of freshwater consumption (3.3 billion gallons of water per day) in the United States.
Warmer temperatures have been taking a toll on these thirsty facilities. Every summer, a lack of water (or of water that is sufficiently cold) forces power plants to shut down. Inadequate and irregular rainfall has also forced hydropower facilities to shut down, such as the Shivanasamudra plant in southern India this month.
Just as producing power requires water, producing water requires power. In California, one-fifth of the state's electrical power is used to pump, treat, transport, heat, cool and recycle water. Agriculture consumes 80 percent of the water in the state, which produces one-third of the vegetables and two-thirds of the fruits and nuts consumed in the United States.
This year is on track to be the driest in the history of recorded rainfall in the state, and has already forced cattle ranchers to pare down their herds and almond farmers to plow under their trees. Food prices across the nation have crept up due to the drought.
California is emblematic of the predicament that the world now faces. A growing population puts water, food, and energy supplies under even more pressure even as they are increasingly strained by climate change. But the most accessible solutions often lead to destructive feedback loops. For example, California's current plan to replace the 2.2 gigawatts of power generation from the San Onofre Nuclear Generation Station, which was shut down in 2012, is likely to rely substantially on new power generation from natural gas, which will pump even more CO2 into the atmosphere and increase the probability of future droughts.
As we anticipate the announcement of Earth Overshoot Day this year, which will arrive earlier than ever, it's worth contemplating how we can find a way out of our predicament, and find real and enduring solutions to the knot of problems in the energy-water nexus. As many have observed, it is really an energy-water-food-economy-security-and-everything nexus, because energy and water are so fundamental to life. Eliminating waste, and using the precious resources we have as efficiently as possible, is the obvious place to start – and that's a challenge we can all help to answer.
Carbon Footprint, Ecological Limits
Canada: Ecological Footprint Instrumental in Supreme Court's Ruling
In a first for the Ecological Footprint and a native group in Canada, the Supreme Court of Canada supported the Tsilhqot'in Nation's title over 1,900 square kilometers in British Columbia as part of a landmark decision announced in June.
The historic ruling came about a decade after Tsilhqot'in Nation's lawyers called Global Footprint Network to provide an expert study for the case, which centered on clear-cut logging permits granted by the British Columbia government without consulting the native community living on the affected land.
The government defended the so-called terra-nullis ("nobody's land") hypothesis—the assumption that pre-European Canada was a vast and empty land—and argued that the First Nation's title claimed was "too large."
The challenge that the Tsilhqot'in Nation posed to Global Footprint Network: provide a scientifically sound evaluation of the capacity of the land to support the native group around 1800, prior to European influence and trade.
Global Footprint Network researchers approached the problem from several angles. One was to study the Ecological Footprint of the current population of bears living on the territory. The theory was that the findings about these omnivorous animals that compete for the same food niche as humans could be used to extrapolate the Ecological Footprint of a human group living off the same land.
A second angle involved studying the current local population of wild horses as a proxy for the hooved animals that would make up the main source of animal proteins for the people. And a third approach used anthropological accounts to study the general food habits of the aboriginal population to evaluate how much food they would gather, how much they would store, and what the impact of living on the edge was.
Global Footprint Network's research findings converged to the conclusion that the claimed area had the capacity to support between 100 and 1,000 people – in other words, that this entire area was needed to meet the needs of the smallish nation – given their traditional hunter gatherer lifestyle. Their Footprint was both wide and light, meaning that it required a wide area given the small volume of natural resources harvested per hectare. Such a Footprint benefits biodiversity, ensuring that the natural capital can regenerate and thrive.
Global Footprint Network was able to show that, at best, terra nullis was an erroneous concept sustained over centuries, ignoring the physical reality of the resource flows supporting populations.
For the very first time, the legal pundits acknowledged this physical reality. "My argument was accepted by consensus by both sides of the case. In fact, I didn't even have to appear in court to testify since there was no need for cross-examination," said Mathis Wackernagel, president of Global Footprint Network and lead author of the research report.
After arguing the case in the Supreme Court in November, Jack Woodward, the lead lawyer representing the Tsilhqot'in Nations, wrote Wackernagel, "We simply stated that because of the climate and geography of the area, only a limited number of people could sustainably live in the area, citing the expert opinion report you prepared for us many years ago."
The historical ruling that followed on June 26 gives the Tsilhqot'in Nation "the right to use and control the land and to reap the benefits flowing from it."
Ecological Limits
World Cup Footwork and Footprints: Who Are the Winners and Losers?
As the final World Cup match quickly approaches, we couldn't help but kick around some Ecological Footprint numbers describing the diverse nations competing in this year's games.
The eight nations who made it to the quarter-finals represent vastly different lifestyles. If all people on Earth lived like residents of those countries, how many Earths would it take? If we all lived like the Argentineans, it would take us 1.6 Earths. In contrast, living like the Belgians would require us to juggle 4.3 planets – not a small feat. The Colombian lifestyle would lead us to juggle the fewest Earths – just slightly more than one.
Do Big Footprints Give Teams a Leg Up in Football?
Do big Footprints produce big World Cup wins? After all, big Footprints may mean big budgets. Big budgets can buy more expensive players. But are they really better? When comparing the number of goals scored before the round of 16 (which evens the playing field because all teams competed in three games), the number of goals does not seem to correlate with a country's Footprint size, as revealed on our soccer field below:
The U.S. and Belgium, for instance, have the largest Footprints per person, but their teams racked up only four goals – the same as the country with the lowest Footprint, Côte d'Ivoire. And the two countries that nailed the most goals have vastly different Footprints: Colombia, with 9 goals, has a Footprint of less than 2 global hectares per person, while the Netherlands with 10 goals has a Footprint of more than 6 global hectares per person.
World Cup football is exciting – nearly as exciting as the global sustainability game. The rules are similar. In both, the players strive to play their best within a given field. For soccer, the field is roughly 1 hectare for 22 players. For sustainability we have about 1.7 global hectares for each citizen of the planet. Can we all live well within that field? Imagine the cheers if we can! The Colombians are closer to winning that game than the Belgians. And if the Germans played the U.S. team in terms of energy transition, it may look as ugly for the U.S. as it did for the Brazilians on the soccer field earlier this week.
If we had to choose our favorite of the two finalists who face off on Sunday based on how little demand they place on nature, we would have to root for Argentina over Germany. GOOOOOLLLLLL!

(WNFL 1440 AM - Green Bay - Jason Miller) - Bryan Bulaga was drafted out of Iowa as a left tackle, however he got moved to the right side. Josh Sitton was drafted as a tackle out of Central Florida and has been a right guard since joining the team. Well pack your bags cause your moving to the left side. According to a Packers source both Bulaga and Sitton will be the left side of your 2013 Packers. Bulaga to tackle and Sitton to guard.
It seems that Evan Dietrich-Smith has shown enough that he is slated to be the center and TJ Lang to right guard. So what does that mean for right tackle? They will take a look at the fourth-round draft pick David Bakhtiari to compete for the job with Don Barclay, Marshall Newhouse and Derek Sherrod. Barclay and Newhouse finsihed the season at the starting tackles– Barclay on the right side after Bulaga sustained a season-ending injury and Newhouse on the left side.
The Green Bay Packers are looking for an upgrade to the tackle position which was the reason for moving Bulaga to the left side aka blind side....ok movie, but back to the piece shall we, well unless you want to mention that the Packers have the highest paid player, playing quarter-back for them. Then making sure the left side of your line is stout, great move. The questions will be do you hang on to guys who you know can play but are injuried often or do you take a chance on someone else who isn't as prooven? That's for you to decide, the only thing I am afraid of is that GM Thompson will keep giving Sherrod chances even though his leg will never be the same after he broke it in 2011...remind you of anyone? Lets say it together...Justin Harrell

Bears' offense struggles in preseason loss to Broncos
BY SEAN JENSEN email@example.com August 9, 2012 10:47PM
Bears running back Kahlil Bell is brought down after a short run in the first quarter Thursday. | Tom Cruze~Sun-Times
Updated: August 9, 2012 11:44PM
Anxious to face anyone else, the Bears looked like they needed more time to themselves.
In the preseason opener, the Bears lost to the Denver Broncos 31-3 on Thursday night, and there were far more negatives than positives for the home team.
The Bears were sloppier and committed more penalties, drawing criticism from coach Lovie Smith.
"[I'm] not pleased in all three phases," Smith said in comments distributed at halftime, when the Bears trailed 10-0. "I told the team [at the half], over the course we might be behind a couple of games at halftime. Let's put that behind us, make some corrections and play better the second half."
But the Bears didn't.
The Broncos added two more touchdowns before Bears fourth-string quarterback Matt Blanchard led a drive that ended with a 47-yard field goal by Robbie Gould.
All told, the game was a disappointment given the excitement for the Bears' revamped offense.
Jay Cutler and Matt Forte warmed up but didn't play, and new star receiver Brandon Marshall played only one series, catching a four-yard pass.
"It was fun," Marshall said. "I'm glad that I got the opportunity to come out here and knock some rust off a little bit.
"I look forward to next week against the [Washington] Redskins and get a couple more plays and hopefully move the ball a little bit more."
With Cutler on the sideline, veteran Jason Campbell started. While he has looked strong in training camp, he didn't shine Thursday night. When Campbell left after three series, the Bears trailed 3-0, and they had mustered only 15 yards. Campbell completed 4 of 5 passes for only 13 yards.
"We were going up against a tremendous defense," Campbell said. "We're not trying to do anything to really show our hand or show what we have right now. We've had a great training camp and we wanted to get out here and get our offense going, but they did a good job of covering us up early on.
"We've got to take what the defense gives us and keep competing. This is our first day out here. It's my first time playing in 10 months, so we just have to get back going again."
The Bears didn't cross midfield until just inside of the two-minute warning, when rookie receiver Alshon Jeffery drew a pass-interference penalty. But the Bears drive stalled after third-string quarterback Josh McCown was sacked and couldn't get another first down.
In the first half, there were two notable plays by the offense – and neither was particularly noteworthy. Jeffery had a nine-yard catch, shielding a backup cornerback from the ball, and Dane Sanzenbacher had the team's longest offensive play, a 12-yard catch on a slant.
But the most promising part of the first half for the Bears was the play of first-round pick Shea McClellin, who had a sack and a pressure. McClellin showed range and speed, as he dove to sack Hanie, who was sprinting for the sideline.
In the final two minutes, though, McClellin was flagged for a blow to the head, when his helmet crashed into Hanie, as Bears defensive tackle Nate Collins was pulling the Broncos quarterback down to the ground.
McClellin got an extended look, in part, because Pro Bowl defensive end Julius Peppers didn't play. Middle linebacker Brian Urlacher also didn't play, giving Nick Roach a chance to fill in. He didn't have any glaring mistakes, as the starting defense did make a big play on the opening series.
Peyton Manning marched the Broncos down the field, completing four of his first five passes for 44 yards. But as they neared the end zone, Manning's pass to Brandon Stokley was behind the receiver, and safety Major Wright made a diving interception.
Wright, though, didn't return to the game because of a hamstring injury.

On Friday, October 10, from 5:30 until 7:00 many published Las Vegas writers will hold a huge book signing event at an iconic spot—Atomic Liquors, 917 Fremont Street in downtown Las Vegas.
This is a great chance to meet and mingle with authors in a casual atmosphere and perhaps discover a new favorite. There are many excellent authors in the Las Vegas area with books ranging from sci-fi and fantasy to romance and mystery, non-fiction and more.
Atomic Liquors is the oldest freestanding bar in Las Vegas, originally founded by Joe & Stella Sobchik in 1952. In fact, they had the first package liquor license and off-sales permit.
Originally built in 1945 as Virginia's Café, it was renamed for a time when customers watched atomic blasts from the roof. According to stories floating around, Joe was tired of cooking food, and it actually seemed the customers were more interested in sampling his secret ingredient 'Atomic Cocktails' while they watched the nuclear blasts from the nearby Atomic Test Site.
So the couple renamed the business Atomic Liquors in 1952, and thus began the popularity of the massive, wrap around bar. The neon sign is a one of a kind landmark and still shines today. Atomic has showbiz in its veins like much of old-time Vegas. Picture The Rat Pack and the Smothers Brothers drinking those Atomic Cocktails after their nightly shows.Barbra Streisand even had her own seat, which has now been restored and on display.
In 2012 a group of investors led by longtime Downtown Las Vegas Attorney Lance Johns purchased the Atomic from the Sobchik's son, Ron, and remodeled it to its original glory. At the Atomic you'll find history, atmosphere, free parking, and drink specials, and on Friday, October 10 you'll also find an outstanding group of authors, all happy to tell you about their books and answer questions. Who knows how many autographed books you will walk out with.
Meet me at Atomic! I'll be there signing copies of "Confessions of a Cougar" and Pre-Publication copies of "La Bella Mafia."
Award-winning author Morgan St. James is the author of twelve books, multiple short stories and over 500 published articles. She frequently gives talks or workshops at writers groups and conferences and publishes the bi-monthly eZine Writers' Tricks of the Trade. New books releasing in October 2013 are La Bella Mafia, a shocking but inspirational story of abuse, gangs and giving back co-authored with Dennis N. Griffin as told by Bella Capo and Betrayed, a work of fiction involving kidnapping, rape and being left dead inspired by true events.

Successful choral programs are the result of sound teaching. Sound teaching is rooted in skill development. Skill development depends upon structured, logical, and sequential materials. InSIGHT SINGING is designed with the materials needed to produce skilled and confident sightreaders. Utilizing a systematic approach, this book is an excellent teaching tool for training the whole musician, developing the ability to read rhythm and intervals while encouraging expressiveness and appropriate singing technique. From the choral methods classroom to the public school choir room, InSIGHT SINGING is an invaluable resource for both the student musician and the experienced teacher.

In a move that his administration is already declaring "trailblazing," D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray will propose on Thursday allowing illegal immigrants to obtain driver's licenses and identification cards.
"If the mayor's bill becomes law, all eligible residents -- documented or not -- will have the opportunity to receive a driver's license and purchase auto insurance, making District roads safer," the D.C. Office on African Affairs said. "Of equal importance, the bill will give District residents who otherwise contribute greatly to the civic life of the District the equality and dignity they deserve."
In its own message, the city's Office on Latino Affairs described the measure as "a monumental step to protect the civil rights of many undocumented residents."
Illinois, New Mexico and Washington already allow illegal immigrants to receive licenses.
|Another look
|Congress will have to review any changes to the District's driver's license laws. Although it has rarely done so, Congress could move to block any modifications from taking effect.
Gray's spokesman refused to comment on the mayor's forthcoming legislation, and Gray declined to elaborate on his plans Wednesday.
"We'll have something more official tomorrow," Gray said at a news conference. "I really want to wait on the details."
An administration official, who requested anonymity to avoid upstaging Gray, said the mayor will be offering his own legislation instead of simply endorsing a proposal introduced in January by D.C. Council Chairman Phil Mendelson and Ward 1 Councilman Jim Graham.
That bill, which would bar the District from denying a license to someone without a Social Security number, attracted initial support from nearly the entire council.
But the administration official said Gray was worried that the legislators' proposal would not comply with a 2005 federal law governing forms of identification.
"It's been in the works for a long time," the official said. "The reason it took so long was because we've been very precise on the language."
Mendelson told The Washington Examiner that he thought the District could accommodate his proposal and Gray's.
"I believe the two proposals can work together," Mendelson said. "I'm inclined to support the mayor's bill and continue to support my bill."
Word of Gray's ambitions drew immediate criticism from activists who have been wary of efforts like the mayor's.
"Just because people are here, it doesn't mean they have to be rewarded with additional benefits," said Ira Mehlman, of the Federation for American Immigration Reform. "Where do you draw the line and say people need to obey laws?"
Gray will announce his proposal on the same day that Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley will sign into law a plan allowing residents without proof of immigration status to apply for driver's licenses.
Examiner Staff Writer Eric P. Newcomer contributed to this report.

Circuit Clarifies Key Part of Disabilities Education Act
A key provision of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act—that school districts place special-needs children in the "least-restrictive environment"—applies to extended school-year placements for children who require 12-month programs, a federal appeals court has ruled.
What's being said
What a disgrace. This decision mandates either that a program MUST be created for this one child and if not, the parents get to send him where ever THEY decide and then bill the school district for it. The least restrictive environment concept has been stood on its head. As there are no main stream classes over the summer, the child should get the best the district can offer, period. In any event, the notion that mainstreaming all autistic kids is always a more educationally sound option than placing them in a self contained, small group special-ed setting is a canard. Terrible decision!!!

Cyclists Break World Records on Olympic
Velodrome Built with Mathematica
When cyclists recently broke Olympic
records 21 times and world records twice on the Stone Mountain Velodrome at
the 1996 Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta, skeptics swallowed their previous
criticisms of this one-of-a-kind racing track. Racing around the 250-meter,
steel-supported oval at over 40 miles an hour, cyclists discovered that
this track was indeed fast. What many didn't realize was that the track's
designers had their eyes on the clock far before the races began, when they
actually designed and built the track in record time with the help of
"All calculations for the track's shape (based on Fresnel integrals) and
component specifications were done entirely in Mathematica," says designer
Chris Nadovich. "It would have taken a whole team of engineers months to do
all the calculations and analysis manually. It took me only a few weeks to
write my Mathematica program, and then it did all the calculations on my
486 in just three hours." Mathematica solved simultaneous systems of
symbolic equations to produce precise numerical descriptions of each and
every one of the 20,000-some pieces of steel on which the steeply banked
track surface would rest.
Nadovich believes this precision directly contributed to the racers'
record-breaking speeds on the track. It has to do with the pole line
(indicated by the black line you see painted on the track) that cyclists
follow to get the most efficient ride. "All other tracks have some
variation in that line, so riders waver about six inches up and down during
each lap," says Nadovich. "In my Mathematica model, that line was one of
the constraints, and I was able to design the whole track around it. I made
it completely flat--a 'zero bubble' pole line."
In fact, it was in large part due to Mathematica that amateur cyclists
Nadovich and Dale Hughes dared to submit their proposal for this
revolutionary track to the Atlanta Committee for the Olympic Games (ACOG)
in the first place. "Key to our winning the bid was price," explains
Nadovich, an electrical engineer by profession. Reducing the cost of the
project by several hundred thousand dollars is the fact that this track,
unlike any other official racing track in the world, is completely modular.
Now that the Games are over, the whole structure has been dismantled and either
stored or transported to a
new location. This eliminates the highly expensive demolition that would be
required for a traditional wooden track. "Given that the ACOG wanted the
venue removed and park restored to its natural state after the Games, ours
was the most economic concept," says Nadovich.
In addition to cost, the ACOG had to consider the fact that Nadovich and
Hughes had no prior world-class velodrome-building experience, whereas the
international leader in this business has been constructing velodromes for
over a hundred years. "I believe we overcame the Committee's reservations
because we were able to show so much detail in our proposal," says
Nadovich. "With Mathematica, I could write initial code for the model
quickly and generate numbers that could be read directly by a CAD drawing
program. I think the realistic three-dimensional visualizations helped
convince them we knew how to put this together exactly the way they wanted

The family of Holly Bobo has released their first statement since a suspect was arrested in connection to her murder.
Late Thursday night, the family's statement was posted on the "Bring Holly Bobo Home" Facebook page:
"In the recent days, it feels like everything has come against our hope and it seems that all our trust was shattered. We still have hope because of who our hope is in. Holly had that same hope and faith, because of Jesus Christ we will see her again. Jesus will provide us the strength and grace to see us through."
On Friday, the page posted a statement from Holly's boyfriend, Drew Scott:
"There are no words to describe my gratitude to our Lord and Savior and all of you, especially for all the prayers and for all you have done for our precious Holly. All the time of searching, handing out fliers, and most of all for your prayers and not giving up. I know our sweet girl is in heaven and has seen the outpouring of love this community and the world has shown her. May God bless each and every one of you, especially Hollys family and friends during this tragic time. Rest In Peace our sweet angel, I will love you forever."
In a press conference on Wednesday afternoon, Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Director Mark Gwyn announced a specially called Decatur County grand jury had issued a true bill and indicted 29-year-old Zachary Rye Adams on charges of especially aggravated kidnapping and first-degree murder.
Bobo was 20 years old when she disappeared outside her Darden, TN, home on April 13, 2011, as Bobo's brother, Clint, saw her being led away from the home between 7:30 and 8 a.m.
The investigation appeared to pick up steam last Friday after agents from the TBI and FBI searched several locations in Decatur and surrounding counties, including the home and property of Adams in Holladay, TN, about 15 miles from the Bobo residence.
Adams was arrested last Friday on unrelated assault charges in which authorities said he held a gun to the head of a woman and threatened to "gut" her.
Adams is currently being held without bond in nearby Chester County. He will be arraigned on the current charges on Tuesday.

-- Robert Preidt
WEDNESDAY, Nov. 2 (HealthDay News) -- You're more likely to
remember the games that your favorite teams win rather than the
ones they lose, a new study says.
It included almost 1,600 baseball fans who followed or attended
the 2003 and 2004 American League Championship baseball games
between the Boston Red Sox and the New York Yankees.
When questioned years later, fans of both teams remembered more
details about their teams' wins than their losses, including the
location of the games, winning and losing pitchers, and whether the
games went extra innings.
The study is published in the October issue of the journal
Psychological Science.
"People seem to remember positive events, not necessarily because of the experience, but because it is rehearsed more -- we think about and share the experience instead of dwelling on the negative," Martin Safer, a psychologist at the Catholic University of America, said in a journal news release.
"What happens after the event, such as the social factors of telling friends about the game, or seeing reminders of your team's winning year on sports paraphernalia is important. These things serve as memory cues and prompt rehearsal of the positive event," explained fellow study author and psychologist Carolyn Breslin.

New NIST measurement tool is on target for the fast-growing MEMS industry
As markets for miniature, hybrid machines known as MEMS grow and diversify, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has introduced a long-awaited measurement tool that will help growing numbers of device designers, manufacturers and customers to see eye to eye on eight dimensional and material property measurements that are key to device performance.
The NIST-developed test chips (Reference Materials 8096 and 8097) are quality assurance tools that enable accurate, reliable comparisons of measurements on MEMS (MicroElectroMechanical Systems) devices made with different equipment and by different labs or companies. These capabilities will make it easier to characterize and troubleshoot processes, calibrate instruments and communicate among partners.

The workmen who built the Great Wall of China ate it for strength. Sailors on early American clipper ships consumed it for health during long voyages.
It has tickled Teutonic taste buds and made its way across France, England and the New World. It has never lost its in-your-face pungency, its low-calorie, high-vitamin profile — or, in modern times, its capacity to tease just the right flavors from a hot dog or Reuben sandwich.
It's sauerkraut, that tartly tantalizing fermented-cabbage dish that long ago took its oddball place alongside gravy and sweet potatoes as a staple of Baltimore Thanksgiving dinners.
Though the custom has shown itself elsewhere, notably Maryland's Eastern Shore, foodies and food historians agree that the habit of consuming sauerkraut with the Thanksgiving bird is as essential to Charm City as painted screens and the pagoda in Patterson Park.
It's also a point of pride — one on which locals have opinions as pungent as the vegetable dish itself.
"I've had it every year since I've been born, and we'll be having at our house this year," says Joseph "Turkey Joe" Trabert, 77, noted connoisseur of Baltimore kitsch and folklore.
The juxtaposition of Thanksgiving fowl — with its rich, almost buttery flavors — and strategically decomposed vegetable is not, to be sure, to everyone's liking. Even locally, it's not hard to find a diner or two who consider the combination less than appealing at best.
"I've never been a fan of kraut. I think it smells like feet," said Tracey Hartman of Annapolis, a Severna Park native whose grandmothers — and mother — served the stuff with love every Thanksgiving. "I also think it ruins the delicious smell of turkey."
Delectable or distasteful, sauerkraut and turkey have been a local tradition for at least 150 years. Sauerkraut itself, in one form or another, has been a staple of the human diet for much longer.
The ancient Egyptians are said to have built altars in honor of the salutary powers of cabbage. About 200 B.C., the Roman statesmen Cato wrote of preserving cabbages and carrots with salt.
Genghis Khan is said to have brought fermented cabbage from China to what is now Central Europe about 1,200 years after that, and Tatars separately imported it to the area from the Volga River region two centuries after that.
Since then, Germanic people and those from certain regions of eastern France, notably Alsace, have made sauerkraut (German for "sour cabbage;" in French, it's called choucroute) a central part of the regional diet, complete with its low cost and its high vitamin C content. Its sour flavors also seem to complement the taste of sausage and take the edge off the gamy flavors of duck and goose.
But how did sauerkraut, with its heady international history, end up dolloped on the same plate as turkey, that richly bland mainstay of the traditional Thanksgiving meal in North America? And why in Baltimore?
The answer, historians tell us, lies in demographics.
Baltimore was a leading gateway for German immigration during the 1800s, so much so that by 1863, the year President Abraham Lincoln declared Thanksgiving a national holiday, one in four of the city's residents were transplanted Germans and spoke the tongue as their first language.
Most who ponder the subject say those immigrants were equally caught up in the traditions of their new country and interested in sprinkling them with the customs they brought with them.
One historian cites a Pennsylvania Dutch tradition that derives from the Eastern European custom of stuffing goose with fermented cabbage. William Woys Weaver, author of "Sauerkraut Yankees," a book of Pennsylvania recipes and food lore, says traders from the York and Chambersburg areas brought it to Baltimore, a frequent stop.
"That tradition was written about as early as 1840," he says.
Local lore has a slightly different twist.
"My wife and I think the immigrants from Germany and Poland settled in Highlandtown and the area around Broadway generations ago, and they celebrated Thanksgiving the way we did, but they also wanted to add a touch of home to their meals," said Nickolas Antonas, who with his wife, Mary, owned and ran the Eastern House restaurant for 44 years.
