The World's Largest Fishing Trade Show Once Again Lives Up to Its Reputationcourtesy of American Sportfishing Association
Las Vegas Convention Center – July 12, 2013 - From every corner of the globe, exhibitors, buyers and media converged on the Las Vegas Convention Center for the world's largest recreational fishing trade show. Held July 9-12, the 56th International Convention of Allied Sportfishing Trades, better known as ICAST, produced by the American Sportfishing Association (ASA), is the annual trade event that helps drive the global sportfishing industry and is the showcase for the latest innovations in gear, accessories and apparel.
Approximately 9,500 representatives from the global fishing industry were in attendance including thousands of buyers who came to check out the gear, accessories and apparel on display. In addition, more than 700 media representatives were in attendance to cover the show.
"The energy and excitement generated during this year's show was felt by everyone," said ASA President and CEO Mike Nussman. "ICAST is our industry trade show. It's very important to us that we create the show that the industry wants. The decision by the boards of directors of ASA and the American Fly Fishing Trade Association to co-locate ICAST and the International Fly Tackle Dealer show (IFTD) is a reflection of that. Our commitment to our member exhibitors, media and all show attendees is to listen and improve the trade show in any and every way we can."
"In 2014 we're taking the trade show to Orlando, Fla. where we will once again co-locate with IFTD," said ASA Board of Directors Chairman Gregg Wollner, executive vice president of Rapala. "We expect to see continued growth in attendance, particularly in the international and marine markets. Business-wise – it's a good investment for us."
Trade Show Director Ken Andres echoed everyone's comments. "We saw great attendance this year with lots of product on display on the show floor. Our aim is to continually enhance the show for the benefit of our exhibitors, buyers, media and other attendees."
Andres further noted, "What really caught my eye this year was how everyone was embracing media to talk about the show. From Facebook to Twitter to company and media websites to personal and media blogs, information, images and video about the show were everywhere. That only helps to set the stage, and the anticipation level, for ICAST 2014 being held July 15-18, at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Fla. In fact, I encourage everyone to check out the video show highlights on www.ICASTfishing.org."
KeepAmericaFishing, the industry's angler advocacy campaign, reached a new milestone with the announcement that one million advocates are now on board to ensure recreational fishing's voice is heard when policy decisions are made that impact our industry.
"KeepAmericaFishing has seen tremendous growth over the past year and anglers are having a positive impact on issues that affect their ability to enjoy a day on the water," said ASA Vice President Gordon Robertson.
Robertson further said, "During ICAST we announced a new KeepAmericaFishing membership campaign for anglers who want to become even more involved in helping to ensure our fishing heritage. In fact, baseball legend Johnny Bench, our State of the Industry Breakfast's keynote speaker, is now a charter member of KeepAmericaFishing. During his breakfast remarks he encouraged everyone in the industry to step up their commitment and become a KeepAmericaFishing member. We can't thank him enough for his support."

Three Husker volleyballers honored
Three Nebraska volleyball players were honored Monday as Players-of-the-Week by the Big Ten Conference. Senior outside hitter Kelsey Robinson shared Co-Players of the Week honors with Lauren Wicinski of Michigan State.
Robinson, a transfer from Tennessee, led No. 10 Nebraska to wins over No. 8 Minnesota (3-0) and No. 23 Wisconsin (3-2).
She averaged 6.3 kills per set and posted a .417 hitting percentage in the two matches along with recording a double-double against the Badgers, tallying a career-high 29 kills and a team-high 22 digs.
Robinson added 29 digs on the weekend, averaging 3.6 per set, while earning her first career Big Ten weekly award.
Setter Lauren Cook was the last Nebraska player to earn Player of the Week award in August of last season.
Sophomore Meghan Haggerty earned Defensive Player-of-the-Week honors. The middle blocker notched 12 total blocks, averaging 1.5 per set in the two Husker wins last week. She also recorded a season-high 13 kills against the Badgers
Haggerty reeled in her fifth career Big Ten weekly award and first Defensive Player of the Week honor. The last Nebraska Defensive Player-of-the-Week winner was Hayley Thramer in November of last season.
A Husker also earned Freshman-of-the-Week honors. Amber Rolfzen, an outside hitter from Papillion won that award.
She tallied 12 total blocks, averaging 1.5 per set in the wins over Minnesota and Wisconsin. She also recorded a team-high eight blocks against the Badgers.
Rolfzen added 20 digs and 11 kills on the weekend en route to collecting her second Freshman-of-the-Week honor.

in many jurisdictions, but they can cause serious
problems in very cold climates. They can fill with
ice and cause water to back up under the roof

eliminating gutters. First, make sure the grade
slopes away from the building at a rate of 2 inches

Second, plant a healthy stand of grass or ground

bushes and flowers in flat mulched beds, which
allow water to stand and percolate deep. Instead,
plant flowers and shrubs a few feet away from the

Skip the Spoon?
Spoon-fed babies may have a higher risk for childhood obesity
Open up, Baby, here comes the airplane! Or has the time come for parents to leave the plane in the hangar (or the choo choo train at the station)?
The Scoop
Babies who are spoon-fed pureed foods during weaning are more likely to crave sweets and become overweight as they grow up compared to children who start solids by feeding themselves finger foods, according to a study conducted by researchers at the University of Nottingham in the UK. The study followed 155 children between 20 months and 6 years old. Parents were asked to fill out questionnaires detailing how the child was weaned (spoon-fed by a parent or allowed to feed themselves using their fingers), the child's eating habits over the years, and their food preferences.
At first, researchers believed they would find that young children who controlled their own eating would be heavier. Instead, they found the opposite. Spoon-fed babies were the ones who were more likely to be obese as toddlers. Eight of the 63 spoon-fed children became obese, while none of the 63 self-feeding children were.
"That was interesting," says Dr. Ellen Townsend, an associate professor of psychology at the University of Nottingham in England, who led the study (via NPR). "Maybe with spoon feeding, if you've lovingly prepared a delicious portion, and you might want to get that portion into that child. There may be a temptation to try to get in an extra spoonful or two."
Dr. Townsend also notes that the difference in obesity rates seems to be based in what kinds of tastes the two groups of tots developed preferences for. Children who were introduced early to finger foods developed a hankering for more satisfying carbohydrates like toasted pita bread and pasta. On the other hand, spoon-fed babies tended to crave sweeter foods like sugary fruit purees.
Your Baby
So skip the spoon? Finger-feeding and baby-led weaning leading to healthier food preferences in young children could truly be a matter of baby knows best, says Dr. Townsend.
"Our study suggests that baby-led weaning has a positive impact on the liking for foods that form the building blocks of healthy nutrition, such as carbohydrates. Maybe it's time to let the little guy get messy and feed himself," Dr. Townsend tells the BBC.
Need ideas for easy finger foods when your baby is ready? Try O-shaped toasted oat cereal, small pieces of lightly toasted bread or bagels, small chunks of banana, well-cooked pasta spirals (cut into pieces), and very small chunks of soft cheese.

Will tax-cheating spouse cost you?
If you think your spouse is cheating on his or her taxes, you may want to file a separate return. Otherwise, you could be responsible for your mate's unpaid taxes.
This post is by Bill Bischoff of SmartMoney.
Before you file a joint Form 1040 for 2011, know this: Under the principle of joint and several liability, you and your spouse will both be on the hook for up to 100% of any federal income tax underpayment for the year. It generally doesn't matter which spouse is responsible for the underpayment.
This is true even after divorce. In other words, if your spouse fails to declare income and/or fails to pay tax bills for years when you were married and filing jointly, the IRS can go after you to collect the entire unpaid balance (plus any interest and penalties) even though you've since divorced.
Worse yet, the joint and several liability rule remains in force even if your divorce decree states that your ex is responsible for any unpaid taxes from your joint-filing years. The IRS is not bound by that agreement, and the feds will just go after whichever person appears to be the easiest to collect from. Thankfully, there are a several ways to avoid this dire outcome.
File separate returns
If you suspect your spouse is ethically challenged when it comes to taxes, consider filing a separate return for 2011 using married filing separately status. Your spouse will then have to use that status, too. With this procedure, you're only responsible for any unpaid taxes on taxable income that was, or should have been, reported on your separate return. (Post continues after video.)
As long as you play by the rules, you spouse's tax misdeeds won't directly affect you. While filing separately may result in a bigger combined tax bill for you and your spouse than if you file jointly, consider the extra cost the price of insurance.
Request 'innocent spouse' relief
The "innocent spouse" rule is intended to help keep eligible joint-filing spouses from being held responsible for their not-so-innocent spouses' tax understatements. You must show that when you signed the erroneous joint return, you did not know and had no reason to know there was a tax understatement, and that it would be unfair to hold you responsible for the understated tax. For example, the innocent spouse rule would be available if your ex concealed income from you, failed to report that income on your joint Form 1040, and you did not benefit from that income.
You apply for innocent spouse relief by filing Form 8857 (request for innocent spouse relief) with the IRS as soon as you become aware of a federal income tax liability that you believe should be the responsibility only of your spouse or ex-spouse due to the innocent spouse rule. In most cases, you must file Form 8857 no later than two years after the first IRS attempt to collect unpaid taxes from you.
Request equitable relief
The equitable relief rule is intended to help eligible joint-filing spouses from being unfairly held responsible for underpaid federal income tax on reported income. To clarify, the equitable relief rule is potentially available when income was properly reported on the joint return, but the full tax bill was not paid. (For relief from taxes on unreported income, you must rely on the innocent spouse rule.)
For example, the equitable relief rule would be available if you and your ex filed a joint return that properly reported all your income and deductions, you gave your ex the money to pay the tax bill, but he spent it on a secret trip to Vegas while claiming he used it to pay the feds.
You apply for equitable relief by filing the aforementioned Form 8857 with the IRS when you believe that an unpaid federal income tax bill should be the responsibility of your spouse or ex-spouse due to the equitable relief rule.
The bottom line
While the innocent spouse and equitable relief rules are well-intentioned, they have some serious shortcomings:
- After you file Form 8857, the IRS must notify your spouse or ex-spouse that you are seeking innocent spouse or equitable relief. There are no exceptions to this rule, even if you are a victim of spousal abuse.
- The IRS must also notify your spouse or ex of the outcome of your request for innocent spouse or equitable relief. If your request is approved, your spouse or ex will no doubt figure out that the IRS will now be seeking to collect from him or her instead.
- Filling out Form 8857 is tricky (you may need professional assistance), and the granting of innocent spouse or equitable relief depends on the whims of IRS personnel.
For all these reasons, I think it's a much better idea to simply use married filing separately status when you have doubts about what will happen if you file jointly.
Filing a separate return is prevention. Relying on the innocent spouse rule or the equitable relief rule is after-the-fact damage control. Prevention is always better than damage control. Please keep that in mind when deciding whether you should file jointly for 2011 or file separately.

Why National Bird Day?
This is the reason for National Bird Day. Join us!
Our 2014 Posters
See our posters from previous National Bird Days!
Celebrate National Bird Day By Watching "Parrot Confidential"
This National Bird Day, meet Lou. Abandoned in a foreclosed home, Lou is one of thousands of parrots in need of rescue. From the wilds of Costa Rica to suburban America, a lovable, quirky cast of parrots will reveal their unforgettable tales and the bittersweet world they share with humans. Their outrageous intelligence and uncanny ability to communicate in any language has made parrots one of the world's most popular pets. But unlike dogs and cats, parrots have not been domesticated. With high decible squawks and complex behavior, they are hardwired for the wild. Add a lifespan of up to 70+ years with their intense need to bond, and a life in captivity doesn't always have a happy ending. With shelters and sanctuaries struggling to meet the demand, too many birds like Lou have no place to go. This National Bird Day, celebrate by watching "Parrot Confidential" in the comfort of your home -- stream it now, from above.
Exclusive Conversation with Parrot Confidential Filmmaker
Listen in on a conversation between Born Free USA's Executive Vice President, Adam Roberts, and Parrot Confidential filmmaker, Allison Argo, as they discuss the film and the difficulties of raising and owning exotic birds as "pets." Additionally, Allison and Adam discuss the larger and more complex picture of the lives, behaviors, and welfare requirements of exotic captive birds, as well as the repercussions of the pet trade industry on wild bird populations around the world. Watch this conversation now and learn how you can join us in celebrating National Bird Day. Think outside the cage!
Bird Blogs
In celebration of National Bird Day 2014, Barry Kent MacKay, Senior Program Associate for Born Free USA and lifelong bird enthusiast, is writing a special six-part blog series in December and January where he will describe some of his favorite avian species.
Take Action!
Born Free USA in coordination with the Avian Welfare Coalition (AWC) is calling on activists around the U.S. to take action on behalf of captive birds by drawing attention to the exploitation of other countries' native birds by the U.S. pet industry on Jan. 5 — National Bird Day.
"National Bird Day" is not only a good day to take time to appreciate the native wild birds flying free outside our windows, it is also a perfect time to reflect on how we treat the native birds of other countries. While we have enacted laws to protect our native birds  such as blue jays, cardinals, and crows — from commercial exploitation, we fail to recognize the inconsistency in allowing the pet industry to exploit the birds of other countries.
Even when bred in captivity, exotic birds are not considered domesticated animals, and all their inherent behavioral and physical needs remain intact. Sadly, when it comes to birds, deprivation of their natural behaviors (to fly and flock, for example) is an inescapable component of their captivity.
Each year thousands of birds are sold into the pet trade to individuals who are under the mistaken impression that a bird will make a perfect pet. Eventually, whether due to frustration, disinterest, or concern, many people attempt to rid themselves of the responsibility of caring for their birds. Unfortunately, few of these birds will find a loving home, and most will spend their days isolated and confined to their cages. Others will bounce from home to home as their caretakers tire of them, and some may be abandoned at local shelters and birds rescues, set free to fend for themselves or euthanized.

A study completed by the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology and published in the journal Health Affairs finds growing evidence of the benefits of health information technology. Using methods that were employed by two previous independent reviews, the new study finds that 92 percent of articles on health IT reached conclusions that showed overall positive effects of health IT on key aspects of care including quality and efficiency of healthcare.
In addition, the study also finds increasing evidence of benefits for all healthcare providers, not just the larger health IT "leader" organizations (i.e., early adopters of health IT) that provided much of the data regarding experience with health IT in the past. The previous reviews identified a gap between "leaders" and non-leaders in demonstrating benefits from health IT. The study also found that dissatisfaction with electronic health records among some providers is a problem that will need to be addressed in order to achieve the full potential benefits of health IT.
Please follow the links below to view an abstract and the full text of the study.

De Fietsfabriek: Dutch Cargo Bicycles
- Location: Chicago, IL
- Website: defietsfabriek-usa.com
While on a search for a new bike, we came across this Dutch bike company, De Fietsfabriek, recently opened in Chicago's Old Town neighborhood. Dutch for "the bike factory," De Fietsfabriek bikes are designed specifically to replace a car. There are a variety of models, many of which can hold a few hundred pounds and several kids. And they're beautiful…
While not exactly what we're looking for with our current needs, we think these bikes are amazing. Motivated by families looking for car alternatives, Yalçin Cihangir and Dave Deutsch decided to revive 'bakfiets' —Dutch cargo bikes— and modernized them for today's needs when they opened De Fietsfabriek. After living two years in Amsterdam, Jon Lind was inspired by this revitalized Dutch bicycle culture and Cihangir and Deutsch, and proceeded to open the first US-based shop, De Fietsfabriek USA.
The Bakfiets are classic Dutch cargo bikes that ride on either two or three wheels. They come with a large box on the front for carting things (or people) around the city. Some styles, like the PackMax Due, even come with two extra children's seats.
Bakfiets: BF18: $3799.00 (left), PackMax Duo: $2249.00 (right)
De Fietsfabriek also makes smaller scale City Bikes. Their design is inspired by vintage cruiser style bikes, but with classic front cargo storage. They're also equipped with fenders, skirt/jacket guards, LED lights and offer extra panniers, a rain canopy and name personalization for an additional charge.
Yes, we agree that the bikes are pricey, but we think for most people these high quality, stylish bikes could truly replace the need for a car, are probably more fun to use, and in the end would save you money.

I think these bikes are absolutely beautiful! HOWEVER, where are the gears, man?! Amsterdam is lovely and flat. Much of the rest of the world is not. I will stick with my Electra w/Xtracycle attachment that has enough gears to haul myself and two kids up and over every hill.
I thought the same thing: where are the gears?
I am in love with the ABICI bicycles. great colors.
See them here: http://www.nest-living.com/pages/bicycles-and-equipment
You're kidding, right? For most people they replace the need for a car? ANd they'll save you money?
Look, if you want to write about the pretty, fancy bikes, go ahead. I wouldn't mind having one myself. But the political commentary -- which is what is is -- is unnecessary. What numbers are you using to support the idea that "in the end" these would save you money? Share your analysis, please.
Stop insulting us with this. And by the way, I don't have a car and use public transportation almost exclusively.
I live in Holland and have one of these bikes: the PackMax. I love love love it.
@suggimom and @SunniBlue: My bike does have 5 gears, which converts to an internal gear ratio of something like 240% (all the Fiets Fabriek bikes are available in gears). This is more than enough for my daily use; I never use the the 2 lowest gears. My husband has the Fiets Fabriek bakfiets (cargo bike) 996, and it is also great for hauling around our 2 boys to and from school every day. (I also sometimes take the boys on my bike -- you can see us in action here.
We save a tremendous amount of money on gas (keep in mind that gas here is approx. 5 euro/gallon.
That said, we are from Seattle and I don't know that our heavy steel bikes would be any fun in a place with so many hills. But I guess it would just take more planning to avoid the hills (with certain bike paths there, it is possible).
You can save money and be car-free by owning a bike that costs about a tenth of that price, with the appropriate racks, pannier bags, LED lights and fenders. A cheap bike will be just as enjoyable and will still save gas.
For city dwellers, I can't imagine trying to drag one of these monsters up stairs to bring it indoors, since that's what you will necessarily have to do with something that costs so much.
As for the gears, while there are internal gears in the hub, I can hardly imagine that the weight of the bike would be easy for most people to manage going up hills.
I agree with HillE that there is money to be saved. We live in a midwestern small-town-turned-suburb where there is no public transportation to speak of (only an express downtown and back twice per day). While we have not been able to totally eliminate our car, we have been able to drastically decrease our reliance on it. (And while it may be normal in cities to only have one car, we are by far the odd one's out in our neck of the woods!)
In the month of May, I rode 230 miles in errands alone. The nearest grocery store is 12 miles round-trip. The only real options of getting there with 2 kids in tow is by car or bicycle. I can use my Xtracycle to lug the groceries and the kids. It will take a while to pass the breakeven point for the cost of the Xtracycle, but we will make it there. We have reduced our car insurance and gas costs considerably.
Wow... that red bike is gorgeous. I'd feel like a superstar w/my two boys in tow! (I'd need a superstar salary to match, however)
I remember seeing some vietnamese bikes on ebay at some point... maybe I could put my welding skills to good use.
kushkush... you're on a blog dedicated to recycling, frugal living and leaving less of a footprint and you're complaining that this post has a definite slant towards those? And, seriously - anyone can see that using a bicycle more will save you money. The cost of car insurance for a year will buy you a serviceable bicycle!
I (crispywaffle's husband) live in flat, flat Holland. I ride my Fietsfabriek 996 (the long two-wheeled bakfiets) about 6 km one way to take my sons to school. According to viamichelin.com, driving to school one way costs me around 1 euro 50 in fuel but saves me about five minutes. So, on days when I ride, I theoretically save about 6 euros for the cost of 20 extra minutes and a second bowl of cereal. Even so, I would have to do this for more than 270 days for the bike to pay for itself. It hasn't replaced our car, even in the land of flat, long and smooth bike lanes. But it has drastically reduced how many liters of fuel we consume. And though I love this bike, I almost choked on its 1,600-euro base price. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have paid $3,049. These bikes (or their competitors) have to become more affordable to have a real impact in the States. If you do buy one, buy it for the joy of riding a bakfiets (they're AWESOME). Expecting it to earn its keep will only make you resent it.
Beautiful Bikes!!! Thanks for sharing. I currently use a vintage Tot Tote as a part of our car free family lifestyle, but should it ever fail me, or should my old bike ever die, and should I ever have the change to spare... I would go for one of these :0)
If you live in LA, you can get similar styled Chinese Flying Pidgeon's, Dutch Toer-3spd's, Batavus City bikes and get help finding a much more affordable Cargo bike by visiting Flying Pidgeon LA (http://flyingpigeon-la.com/blog/).
Josef who owns the place is a really nice guy and is a strong advocate for vehicular cycling in LA. He delivers his bike using his bakfiets, and to regularly attend transportation agency meetings. They're located in Highland Park.
Might already have been answered, but to the above questions regarding gears - the bikes all have internal gear hubs, most with five gears I believe. While pricey, these bikes are extremely solid and well-built. They're made for everyday, urban use. They're great for taking the kids to school or running to the park or store. Our 995 has certainly allowed us to be a one-car family.
Also, as kraywood wrote, they're fun to ride.
I purchased the BF18 bike a little over a year ago (July 2008). Thought I was completely off my rocker when I purchased it, we are not weathly, but I do have to say that it has cut down the use of my car greatly. We live in Chicago and find it easier to get from point A to point B then in a car. Parking more easier then a car being a benefit I had not thought of. Even with a full load I find this trike to be less stressful on my body then my standard bike so I am more likely to use it then my car or bike.
There are gears on these bikes, 5 gears and coaster brakes. I would not suggest the BF18 for someone in a hilly area but we live in the flat lands. We fill it with 30lbs of cat litter, 40lb 5 year old and $150 worth of groceries regularly. It is a pleasure to ride and I expect when one of our 2 cars finally dies it will make the transition to a 1 car family a lot easier.
I believe that this product and others like it will help car addicted families more easily convert to greener lifestyles.

There has been some concern within the Law Enforcement Community recently about drug traffickers cutting raw heroin with a variety of peroxide-based substances. While this sounds fairly innocuous, a basic understanding of the chemistry used in most LE drug test kits will tell you that mixing the acid-based chemical test reagents with peroxide-based compounds results in the release of sulfuric acid which is highly corrosive and can cause burns. We issued a Safety Alert to the community on November 14th advising officers to be cautious about field testing heroin from unknown sources due to the possibility of test pouches rupturing during the chemical reaction, potentially injuring the officer.
One of the most interesting aspects of this trend was the riddle surrounding the composition of the cutting agents. I personally called and spoke with an officer who had a test pouch rupture during the testing process. His lab confirmed that the cutting agent was brick dust, a peroxide-based compound used in cosmetics and other benign applications. There have also been a number of unconfirmed reports that TATP, an explosive and peroxide-based compound, has been used to cut heroin. Now, I'm no scientist or drug addict, but I wonder about the logic of cutting narcotics with an explosive compound. Sounds like a recipe for disaster.
Mr. Jake Bohi, of the Homeland Defense Bureau (Bomb Squad) recently published an article using research from the Phoenix PD where they conducted tests of manufactured TATP coming into contact with acids utilizing a variety of NIK and ODV narcotics test kits provided by Forensics Source. I won't delve into the details of the testing protocols (the details have been published in the January/February edition of The Detonator, Volume 36, Number 1), but the results published by the Phoenix PD can be quickly summarized as follows:
Some kits were more sensitive than others, but if you follow the instructions and use the amount of material recommended by the manufacturer, you will be fine.
Kits that contained only weak acid solutions or water based solutions did not react with the organic peroxide at all.
Results emphasized that only small amounts of product are needed to field test drugs and using larger amounts than the manufacturers recommend may be dangerous.
Training law enforcement officers how to use drug test kits is crucial.
We still don't know if anyone is really crazy enough to cut heroin with explosive TATP, but at least if they do, we have more confidence than ever that following proper training and protocols will keep officers safe.

The Supreme Court of Georgia announced Monday a Phenix City attorney has been disbarred. Georgia's highest court said Dana Gentry, 39, failed to adequately respond to the State Bar's Notice of Investigation. As a result, he was disbarred and suspended from practicing law in the state of Georgia.Gentry was recently arrested in August of this year on five outstanding warrants in Lee County, AL, including first-degree theft after he failed to appear for an arraignment hearing in Lee County. He was also arrested last September after a Lee County grand jury indicted him on charges of criminal possession of a forged instrument (felony) and criminal simulation (a misdemeanor).
Gentry made headlines last summer after rescuing a Georgia woman and her son from a rip current at Panama City Beach. Copyright 2012 WTVM. All rights reserved.

Can we expect emerging countries to curb their energy consumption, even though we had decades of flagrant use?
China, India and other emerging countries- from 3rd to 1st world in a flash- are beginning to start using resources the way we have here in the USA for decades now- some are just "basic" like indoor electricity and city infrastructures, to more grandiose things like air conditioning, SUV's and sky scrapers. With their immense populations all looking for the western way of life, mcdonalds and all- can we try and hold them to any consumption standards? To reduce fossil fuel consumption in particular. To learn from our mistakes? Should we offset them by making deeper cuts at home? Even if it is more costly upfront- how can we have them see that renewable energy may save a lot in the long run? Do you know of some countries at the forefront? I know of Germany, but in the emerging sector? It seems these countries maybe the tipping point for many issues regarding sustainability?

Kris RosvoldSep 25 2012: I don't know that we can (or should) try to control usages of fossil fuels by other countries. The bottom line in life is that you can only control you OWN choices and actions... The moment you try to control someone else - no matter the justification - you become a despot (however well intentioned).
Thus I propose a simpler, though more difficult, solution to the problems you address. WE do what many other countries are doing.... invest heavily in the renewable energy industry, make every building a net generator(as far as possible) and reap the cost benefits... in short, let's work HERE to do what Germany and Sweden, and Norway have done, reap the benefits of that and lead the way based on cost savings... The technology is almost ready... Solar is in it's 4th generation, Wind in well into it's 3rd.
While I absolutely agree that SOMETHING needs to change, I just don't know that it's possible (much less morally defensible) to force OUR choices down someone-elses' throat..
Bottom Line: WE as a society (and as individuals) need to take and accept responsibility for OUR actions and choices.... Including the responsibility for allowing OUR legislators the leeway to serve corporate interests before the interests of the Citizens!
A little off-topic but; this principal also applies to the abortion debate going on on now in the US.
Sep 29 2012: Kris: it is quite unnecessary to control "other people's fossil fuel consumption". By a stroke of luck, there is a cheap, safe, green , unlimited energy source already invented and demonstrated. Look up Thorium, liquid Fueled Reactor (LFTR) on Youtube., The Chinese are already reviving this forgotten US technology.
Sep 30 2012: Kris: I'm sympathetic with your motives, but you do realize that a lot of "renewables" are an outright scam, like Ethanol, and others are simply well meaning, but totally inadequate.? If we want to maintain at least our present level of civilisation, we are going to require a power source that is, well, powerful.. "Renewables" , are not, and cannot realistically be made so. In the meantime, Thorium LFTR power can do the job rather easily, comparted to the alternatives. There is really only a short term need for burning fossil fuels; they should be saved to make plastics, etc.

January 31, 2013, 9:05 PM — A French website collecting links to content stored on the Mega file-sharing service is experiencing trouble in what may be an effort by Kim Dotcom's latest enterprise to avoid concerns over illegal file sharing.
The website, Mega-search.me, appeared shortly after the Jan. 20 launch of Mega, the successor to Megaupload. Earlier this week, it was possible to search for links to content, some of which appeared to be protected by copyright, that was stored on Mega.
But as of Thursday evening, Mega-search.me no longer had a functioning search feature. A pop-up message, in French, read: "Due to a script developed by Mega to delete all files indexed [by] Mega-search, the engine is temporarily unavailable. A solution to overcome this problem will be made shortly."
Mega-search.me, which has an active Twitter account, could not be reached for comment. On Twitter, the site alleged Mega had deleted all of the links that it had indexed without checking the content.
Mega officials could not be immediately reached for comment. Mega lawyer Ira P. Rothken said on Wednesday the site has fielded at least 150 notices that it is hosting copyrighted files and in many cases removed the offending content the same day.
So far, Mega has been very prompt in responding to copyright infringement notices, said Hervé Lemaire, founder of LeakID, a Paris-based company that monitors the Internet for illegally shared content for clients including Microsoft.
LeakID, founded in 2007, develops software that scans the Internet for links to content owned by its clients. The number of links to potential copyright-infringing material LeakID has found on Mega pales in comparison to that of other so-called "cyberlocker" file-storage services, he said. Users often upload content to the services and then share the links with third-party websites such as Mega-search.me.
As of Wednesday, LeakID had flagged around 5,600 suspicious links hosted on Mega, far fewer than on services such as Rapidgator, RapidShare, RyuShare, Upload and Extabit. LeakID had flagged hundreds of thousands of links for content on those services, Lemaire said.
Lemaire was aware of Mega-search.me. "We must take care of this," he said.

Another year, another colourful exchange between John Tortorella and Larry Brooks.
The New York Rangers' head coach and New York Post hockey columnist went back and forth in a game day scrum on Friday after Brooks asked Tortorella whether he thought the Rangers' backs were against the wall going into Game 2 of their first-round series with the Washington Capitals.
"Do I think our backs are against the wall? This is a series," responded Tortorella.
"That's what I'm asking," said Brooks. "Are your backs against the wall right now?"
"I never think our backs are against the walls. I think in a series..."
"In a series or anytime?" Brooks interjected.
"So you didn't think your backs were against the wall Saturday?"
"Saturday?" Tortorella asked.
"Against New Jersey?"
"You mean in the regular season?"
"That's what I'm asking," said Brooks. "You said you never think your backs are against the wall. Are you just talking about playoffs or anytime?"
"Well we're in playoffs right now," said Tortorella. "You're asking me questions to try and box me in to language."
"No I'm not."
"Yes you do."
"No I'm not," explained Brooks. "I'm asking you do you think your backs are against the wall, you said 'I never think backs are against the wall.' I said 'in regular season or playoffs.' So you're only talking about playoffs."
"I'm talking about a series of playoffs," countered Tortorella. "Why are we even going back to regular season? "Cause it's logistics with you. You try to use my words Brooksie..."
"No, you talked about the regular season just now," said Brooks, cutting him off.
"No, you try to use my words and box me in to a corner all the time," said Tortorella. "Can I get another question? I went in here in a pretty good mood today, too."
"So did I," said Brooks.
"Well you obviously ------ that up, didn't you?"
The exchange was one of many between Tortorella and Brooks over the years, going back to the coach's days with the Tampa Bay Lightning. Tortorella's Rangers trail Washington 1-0 in their first-round series and the coach will dress agitator Sean Avery in the lineup for Game 2.
"When Sean is consistent with his play, he can add some forechecking to us. He should also add some energy to our lineup. Hopefully Sean adds some juice."
Watch TSN.ca later today for the video and also catch it on SportsCentre at 6pm et/3pm pt.


text: The Applied Math in Missions trip is for math majors who are interested in applying their degree towards addressing world problems within the context of redemptive ministry. The applied math major aims to bring solid mathematical expertise to bear upon those world issues that require both interdisciplinary knowledge and an informed Christian perspective. Consequently, the main motivation for the major is to facilitate a Christian response to current problems including energy and environment, epidemiology and health, hydrology and agriculture, population and economics by a thorough program of math and science that is integrally and explicitly related to witness and ministry. Every summer, although the effort is coupled with prior student/faculty research accomplished during the preceding semesters, the Math Department will be doing on-site applied mathematics research coupled with ministry in sites both in the U.S. and at foreign locations. Previous years have included mathematical research oriented towards Earthquake Resistant Construction for developing communities, which included a ten day Math and Missions trip to Acapulco-Ometepec, Mexico. In addition to Mexico, the Math Department has already been involved in Japan, Honduras, and Ethiopia. Next summer the Applied Math and Missions trip expects to locate their research effort at a site within the U.S..

(WHAS11) -- The election ended just two days ago but already rumors are swirling about who will challenge Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell in the 2014 race.
One name getting the most buzz is Kentucky native and Hollywood actress Ashley Judd.
She lives in Tennessee and works in Hollywood but UK graduate Ashley Judd not only bleeds Kentucky blue, we've learned that the actress has been in conversations with influential Kentucky Democrats for months, contemplating a run against the longest serving U.S. Senator in Kentucky history, Mitch McConnell.
"This is not a frivolous thing. I think she is definitely interested in seeking public office. She has a great interest in public policy, and so I have encouraged her to do that," U.S. Rep. John Yarmuth(D), Ky. 3rd Congressional District, said.
"I love it. And I watch her when she's at the U of K games all the time," Ann Doane, Ashley Judd fan, said. "I watch all of her movies, so I think she is awesome."
Other potential Democratic candidates include: top Obama fundraiser and former ambassador to Sweden Matthew Barzun, Secretary of State Alison Lundergan-Grimes, Lt. Governor and former Louisville Mayor Jerry Abramson and current Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer.
Fischer lost in the Democratic Senate primary in 2008.
"I love the job I have right now. I'd never say I'm not going to do something but I don't have any plans to do that," Fischer said.
Fischer said he is "leaning toward" running for re-election.
The Senate race would be tough for any Democrat against a well-funded McConnell and in a mid-term environment often a challenge for the party of the incumbent president.
Obama lost Kentucky by 23 percentage points and Judd is an Obama Democrat.
"I just don't think at the end of the day she's a good fit for our state. Now, that being said I think she could run a very good race because she would attract large national money, large national attention," Bob Gunnell, Democatic Strategist, said.
Democratic Strategist Bob Gunnell says Abramson may be the ideal candidate because for any Democratic candidate to win statewide, they would have to carry Louisville by a big margin. Judd's Wildcat allegiance could come back to bite her in Cardinal country.

Throughout the years, many curly-headed women have tried countless methods and techniques for straightening their hair, with many ending in pain and horror stories. For a long time, the desire to have long, sleek, and shiny hair had been nothing more than a pipe dream for these women and they have had to settle for finding curly styles that better fit their natural hair texture. At the same time, women in different parts of the world have had no problem switching from a curly head of hair to straightened locks without any issues. What is the difference? The latter women were using specific methods to accomplish the task in the best way possible. The top two techniques have since become global and now use modern equipment to straighten even the curliest locks.
The newest of the two main straightening techniques comes from Japan and is called Japanese Thermal Straightening or Reconditioning, or the Japanese Straight Perm. Whatever name is used, the process involves a number of high tech chemicals being applied to the hair to get the dramatic texture change. Most salons will have one or two brands of Japanese Straightening Systems. The best of these are either Liscio or Yuko, both of which have had great success with very curly hair. A person who has decided on this procedure should ask their stylist which products they will choose and be cautious if neither of these brands are mentioned. All told, a Japanese Thermal Reconditioning session can take quite a long time, with reports of up to six hours being common. However, the straightening technique will keep the hair looking good for half a year to a full year, depending on the person's individual level of wear and tear as well as the humidity in the air.
The other high tech straightening technique is also foreign, this time coming from the South American nation of Brazil. Called a Brazilian Keratin Treatment, this process uses a different set of chemicals to achieve the straightened effect. The main chemical is keratin, a protein that occurs naturally in hair, which is probably why the method is so successful. Combing keratin, other chemicals, and conditioners, the hair is straightened to a desired texture and will stand up to blow drying and even moisture for several months. While the technique has evolved greatly in modern years, a woman thinking about getting a Brazilian Keratin Treatment will need to know what chemicals are going into her hair. Specifically, she should ask the stylist if they use formaldehyde and choose a different salon if they say yes.
With these two different techniques both being effective, many women wonder which one they should choose for the best combination of appearance, longevity, and cost. The main difference between the two is in the amount of time that they last. While the Japanese treatment lasts up to a year, the Brazilian version usually only lasts for a few months before another trip to the salon is needed. At the same time, the Brazilian straightening process does leave the hair more shiny and wavy, so a woman may desire that texture. For most women, the correct choice will come down to personal preference and how she wants her hair to look and feel.

The WWF is run at a local level by the following offices...
Over the last 12 months almost 120,000 of you have stood up and asked for stronger action by financial institutions and governments to say goodbye to fossil fuels and bring in a future powered by renewable energy.
With your invaluable support, we have been asking for faster and greater investments in renewable energy.
This September, when world leaders gather in New York for the UN Summit on Climate Change, we will attend knowing we have your voices behind us, insisting on a renewable future!
By 2030, the world needs to triple its investments in renewable energy to help avert a climate catastrophe! This enormous challenge can only happen with a radical change in the political will at the highest levels… and with your support, that's exactly where we're going.
The world is way behind the level of investments needed to bring a renewable economy into reality, but in the last year, various climate focused campaigns have started a call for more and faster investments in renewable energy and transition away from fossil fuels.
The United States announced an end to investments in coal projects overseas and called for multilateral banks to do the same. Five Nordic countries stood with the United States and announced the end of public financing for new coal-fired power plants overseas, except in rare circumstances.
More than half the world's population lives in cities and over 70% of all fossil fuel related CO2 emissions today are generated by these residents. Over the last 12 months, cities across the globe have committed to a future powered by renewable energy and city leaders are urging governments for faster action on investments in renewables.
The World Bank took the lead to end support for coal by committing to fund coal power plants in only the 'rarest of circumstances'. The European Investment Bank (EIB) and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) both introduced new lending criteria to cut back on funding for coal.
We need your help!

Mythcrackers Report
There are two facts that I wake up thinking each morning: 1) Avoiding dangerous climate change will save one third of animal species on this planet from being at risk of extinction. 2) Avoiding dangerous climate change requires that the energy infrastructure in place by 2017 is sufficiently in clean energy and energy efficiency.
Two opinion pieces were released in the past 24 hours in Norway commenting on today's vote in Norway's parliament on a proposal for its sovereign wealth fund, the largest in the world, to invest directly in renewable energy and to end investments in coal.
It has been a year of global change as investors begin to move money out of fossil fuels and into renewable energy - one of the most needed actions on climate change.
This week a new report came out from the Carbon Tracker Initiative, revealing that there is $1.1 trillion USD of investment between now and 2025 that are at high risk if the world begins to take climate change seriously.
Humanity is waking up to the damage that fossil fuels inflict on our planet, and financial institutions are becoming aware of the economic unsustainability of our addiction to coal, oil and gas.
"Today, cities joined together in committing themselves to WWF's Seize Your Power pledge calling for the redirection of investments away from fossil fuels and toward renewable energy.
"The most important challenge that the global economy faces is climate change". Do you know who said that last year? It might not be who you think…
HAVE YOU EVER WANTED SUPER POWERS?We've all dreamt about life-changing abilities. But I'm writing this to tell you that you already have all the super powers you need to change the world. All you really need is to use your own power.
The world must shift from its current dependency on a dirty fossil fuel energy system to clean, sustainable renewable energy if the world is to have a chance of combatting rampant climate change.
The solutions in this booklet are just a small sample of the many ways the global WWF network is working on clean energy solutions to fight climate change.
Norway has just made a stride forward on coal, oil and gas investments and climate change. Global institutional investors must do the same, and Norway must now lead on clean, renewable energy investments.

Two villages of the Sundarbans delta region in east of India, comprising 140 households, nearly 30 shops, streets, and main public buildings including a senior school now have solar panels. The panels provide for the first time, electricity in an otherwise electricity starved region and that too by clean and renewable solar energy.
Climate change has been blazing away at us -whether it's the super typhoon Haiyan – the strongest storm ever to hit the earth, or the polar vortex, or even the more recent flooding in the UK, the writing on the wall only gets bolder each passing day.
The extraction, transport and burning of fossil fuels is putting unacceptable pressure on many beautiful and critical places. Here's just a few we want to highlight.
We couldn't possibly survive without oil, coal and gas, right? Wrong. Renewable energy sources are a viable alternative, and the world is already turning towards new, clean, sustainable energy sources.
Six icons of the natural world. One grave threat. Fossil fuels like oil, coal and gas pose a threat to some of the world's most spectacular landscapes and the animals and people that call them home.

I work in PR and as a byproduct get to do quite a bit of editing/writing at work - but it's all nonfiction articles/speeches/press releases and unfortunately my name doesn't get to byline the articles I write (oh, the joys of ghostwriting!). I absolutely adore my job - but I miss creative writing! Creative nonfiction was my forte back in my not-so-ancient college days, but it's not what I like to read. I'm using Wattpad to practice my fiction skillz. Which admittedly are lacking. The way I write is that I publish first...edit later. Easier to get the plot out there and then go back and refine the language and other minutia. Favorite genres are epic fantasy, PNR, and urban fantasy, but I'll read anything. I'm in search of my reader soulmate who is as diehard a fan of Ilona Andrews as I am.

One of two things usually happens to people visiting a new country: They become cautious and are afraid to let their guard down, or they decide to take risks and embrace opportunities that present themselves during their brief adventure.
The latter approach can be credited with bringing Ghyslaine "Gigi" and David Olmstead together.
It was an internship that brought her to the U.S., at age 24, for the first time.
"When you're in another country, you feel more adventurous because you're already out of your comfort zone," says Gigi, now 39 and living in Lakeview with husband David and their son, Alex, 5.
Although her fortuitous trip to Chicago may have led them to each other, the happy ending was preceded by years of living separate lives on different continents.
Gigi was born in Vietnam, where she lived until she was 4. In 1977, her family moved to France. She was fluent in Vietnamese, French and English and longed to live in an English-speaking country. In 1998, she began to realize her dream when she got a marketing internship in Chicago with Air France.
David, then 29, was already in Chicago, working as a lawyer. He had long had a passion for all things French, having minored in French at the University of Michigan; he even spent his junior year abroad in Paris.
He was fluent in French and practiced his love for the language every Wednesday evening at Portillo's in River North, where a group gathered to speak French and sharpen their conversational skills. David had been attending for three years when in walked Gigi.
It was her first visit. She had been in the country for two weeks.
Gigi immediately began speaking in French to a man and gave him her number.
That man was not David. And yet David sat down next to Gigi and started talking to her.
"I was impressed with his French," Gigi said.
Although she considers herself reserved — and despite exchanging phone numbers with another man minutes prior — Gigi found herself doing something she would have never done before. She asked David for his phone number.
"I was surprised," said David, now 44, thinking back on that night. "She had been talking to another French guy, and I wasn't sure of her intentions."
But he gave her his number anyway.
An hour after parting for the evening, Gigi called David.
"I thought to myself, 'I'm here. I might as well immerse myself in the American culture,'" Gigi says, "and he seemed to know a lot about the city, and he seemed interesting."
The next night, they went to the movies. Soon they were officially dating.
Unfortunately, Gigi's internship was only three months long.
She returned to France to finish school.

I, too, yearn for vintage globes. I did have recent good luck at an estate sale - a vintage moon globe for $2. How cool is that? Now if I could just find one of those black ocean ones like I grew up with (e.g. 4 and 7), I'd be really happy.
I got a really nice vintage globe night light/lamp for my sons' room. It is beautiful.
I recently inherited a brass based vintage globe from my father. I remember always thinking how cool it was when I was a kid. It didn't look like the globes at school because it was in these rich earthy colors vs bright primary colors. I couldn't tell you the year but it is certainly older than I am. It's such an interesting and classic piece, if only I can find a place to properly display it!
