42 U.S. Code § 300j–11 - Indian Tribes
(a) In general
Subject to the provisions of subsection (b) of this section, the Administrator—
(2) may delegate to such Tribes primary enforcement responsibility for public water systems and for underground injection control, and
(b) EPA regulations
(1) Specific provisions
The Administrator shall, within 18 months after June 19, 1986, promulgate final regulations specifying those provisions of this subchapter for which it is appropriate to treat Indian Tribes as States. Such treatment shall be authorized only if:
(A) the Indian Tribe is recognized by the Secretary of the Interior and has a governing body carrying out substantial governmental duties and powers;
(B) the functions to be exercised by the Indian Tribe are within the area of the Tribal Government's jurisdiction; and
(2) Provisions where treatment as State inappropriate
For any provision of this subchapter where treatment of Indian Tribes as identical to States is inappropriate, administratively infeasible or otherwise inconsistent with the purposes of this subchapter, the Administrator may include in the regulations promulgated under this section, other means for administering such provision in a manner that will achieve the purpose of the provision. Nothing in this section shall be construed to allow Indian Tribes to assume or maintain primary enforcement responsibility for public water systems or for underground injection control in a manner less protective of the health of persons than such responsibility may be assumed or maintained by a State. An Indian tribe [1] shall not be required to exercise criminal enforcement jurisdiction for purposes of complying with the preceding sentence.

Wedding Day: June 24, 2012
Her story: Sarah Friedman, 31, grew up in Baltimore. Her father, Lou Friedman, heads up Lou Friedman & Co., an Owings Mills accounting and financial services firm. Her mother, Paula Friedman, is a cardiac nurse at Sinai Hospital. Sarah went to college at the University of Pittsburgh, where - in her junior year - she had to watch the Super Bowl alone in her dorm room, because all her friends were Steelers fans. Friedman returned to Baltimore, where she is now a pediatric nurse at Sinai Hospital.
His story: Josh Wilen, 31, grew up in Pittsburgh. His dad is Ron Wilen, Get Go store manager in the Pittsburgh area. His mom, Barbara Libman, is a former executive assistant for Hanover Insurance Group and lives near Boston. He went to Indiana University in Pennsylvania and was moved to Baltimore five years ago by Target, where he is now the executive team leader of assets protection at its new store in Crofton.
Their story: They met on JDate. "I wrote my profile, but it wasn't very appealing...It's hard to talk about yourself and try to brag," says Sarah. "So, I didn't get very many responses. And those I did get weren't people I was really interested in pursuing. So, then a friend went behind my back and made another profile [of me]. When she started getting responses, she had to tell me and give me the password. Then, she told me to start responding.
That led to an email correspondence, where they found they had several common interests.
"We don't like the typical stuff. We like things that are little bit unique," says Josh. That meant a July 8, 2009 first date that was a tad quirky - miniature golf, followed by dinner at Friendly's.
Something else they had in common? Each is a rabid fan of his and her hometown football team. "But we're very good together," says Sarah. "When the teams play, we watch together, but we're very civil. However, we have to watch the family. The family is not so civil."
How he proposed two years later: "Because our first date was miniature golfing, I wanted propose on a miniature golf course. Then, when I'd go to pick up a ball, I'd go down on my knee and propose. That was my vision," he says. It didn't quite work out that way.
Sarah was on call that day and had to go in to work. So, Josh got the spare key to Sarah's car from her mother, and hunted down her car in the hospital parking lot. Then, he acted like he was swinging by to pick her up to go for their usual Tuesday night gym night, and took her to her car.
"When I opened the door, on the middle console were a dozen red roses. I picked them up, and when I looked under them, there was a ring. And when I turned around, he was on his knee in the parking lot."
The ring: Sarah told Josh that because the ring would be a gift from him, he should be the one to decide its design
"It looks like a tension ring, with a diamond floating between two bands. But, he knew - as a nurse - I would be bumping it too much and it might loosen the diamond. So he wanted to make it more secure, with added prongs. He put a lot of thought into it...He says it looks like the band is hugging the diamond, because it looks like two arms."
The other ring(!): Josh says he had been kidding Sarah for a while that he didn't think it was fair that only females got engagement rings.
"So, later the night [I proposed], we were at home. She went into one of her drawers and pulled out a box and asked me to marry her," he says. She had gotten the ring - tungsten with carbon fiber weaving through it - and had been saving it to give to him after he proposed. It's now a permanent fixture on his right ring finger.
The place - M&T Bank Stadium: "We both come from rather large families and we knew it was going to be a pretty large wedding," says Sarah.
"So, when it came to nailing down a place for a big wedding - about 400 - it was either a hotel or one of the stadiums. And we're not big baseball fans. So, we looked at some hotels. They're gorgeous, but a hotel is a hotel. My brother got married at AVAM and my sister got married at the Hippodrome. So, I felt like I had to do something extra special. So, my mom mentioned the stadium. For Josh, it was really hard to absorb that it was Ravens stadium...When we talked about looking at it, he wasn't interested. So, I said, what if we made the colors [the Steelers'] black and gold? And he said, well, okay."
His family is a different story.
"His brother is still having a hard time believing he's coming to Ravens stadium. His walls are Steelers memorabilia, so for him to be the best man at the wedding there, it's a lot to swallow," says Sarah.
"My brother asked, how are you going to raise the children?" says Josh, with a laugh.
Engaged: Sarah Friedman and Joshua Wilen
It will be the Ravens vs. the Steelers at this Baltimore couple's wedding

Foxtail millet
|Foxtail millet
|Immature seedhead
|Scientific classification
|S. italica
|Binomial name
|Setaria italica
(L.) P. Beauvois
Panicum italicum L.
Foxtail millet (botanic name Setaria italica, formerly as Panicum italicum L.) is the second-most widely planted species of millet, and the most important in East Asia. It has the longest history of cultivation among the millets, having been grown in China since sometime in the sixth millennium BC. Other names for foxtail millet include Italian millet, German millet, Chinese millet, and Hungarian millet.
Foxtail millet is an annual grass with slim, vertical, leafy stems which can reach a height of 120–200 cm (3.9–6.6 ft).
The seedhead is a dense, hairy panicle 5–30 cm (2.0–11.8 in) long.
The small seeds, around 2 mm (less than 1/8 in.) in diameter, are encased in a thin, papery hull which is easily removed in threshing. Seed color varies greatly between varieties.
Common names for Foxtail millet[edit]
- In India: Thinai, kavalai, kambankorai are some of the names for foxtail millet in Tamil. Nuvanam is millet flour. The gruel made from millet, the staple of Ancient Tamils, is called kali, moddak kali, kuul, and sangati. Korralu (Telugu), Navane (Kannada), kang (Gujarati),Kang, Rala (Marathi)
- In Sri Lanka: it is called Thana Haal in Sinhala
- In Mandarin: foxtail millet is usually called xiǎomǐ (小米), meaning 'little rice'.
- In Chinese: ji (稷), su (粟), etc.
- In Japanese, foxtail millet is called awa (粟).
- In Korean, a foxtail millet plant is called jo (조), and the grain obtained from this plant is called jopsal (좁쌀), a word which is commonly used in Korean as a metaphor for pettiness or innumerable small things (such as bumps of a skin rash).
- In Indonesian, a foxtail millet plant is called jewawut
In South India, it has been a staple diet among people for a long time from the sangam period. It is popularly quoted in the old Tamil texts and is commonly associated with Lord Muruga and his consort Valli.
In China, foxtail millet is the most common millet and one of the main food crops, especially among the poor in the dry northern part of that country. In Europe and North America it is planted at a moderate scale for hay and silage, and to a more limited extent for birdseed.
It is a warm season crop, typically planted in late spring. Harvest for hay or silage can be made in 65–70 days (typical yield is 15,000-20,000 kg/ha of green matter or 3,000-4,000 kg/ha of hay), and for grain in 75–90 days (typical yield is 800–900 kg/ha of grain). Its early maturity and efficient use of available water make it suitable for raising in dry areas.
Diseases of foxtail millet include leaf and head blast disease caused by Magnaporthe grisea, smut disease caused by Ustilago crameri, and green ear caused by Sclerospora graminicola. The unharvested crop is also susceptible to attack by birds and rodents.
History and domestication[edit]
The wild antecedent of foxtail millet has been securely identified as Setaria viridis, which is interfertile with foxtail millet; wild or weedy forms of foxtail millet also exist. Zohary and Hopf note that the primary difference between the wild and cultivated forms is "their seed dispersal biology. Wild and weedy forms shatter their seed while the cultivars retain them."[1] The earliest evidence of the cultivation of this grain comes from the Peiligang culture of China, which also cultivated the common millet, but foxtail millet became the predominant grain only with the Yangshao culture.[1]
Foxtail millet arrived in Europe later; carbonized seeds first appear in the second millennium BC in central Europe. The earliest definite evidence for its cultivation in the Near East is at the Iron Age levels at Tille Hoyuk in Turkey, with an uncorrected radiocarbon date of about 600 BC.[1]

Queens of L.A.'s lo-fi scene
Nurtured by the Smell, a new crop of female rockers with similar DIY aesthetics has emerged in L.A.
- 1

- | single page
L.A. WOMEN: The city's up-and-comers include, from left, Piper, top, and Skylar Kaplan; Bethany Cosentino; Ramona Gonzalez; and Dee Dee. (Kirk McKoy / Los Angeles Times)
In its six-year existence, the Sub Pop-signed outfit emerged as arguably the city's most vital bunch of female rockers since the Go-Go's, a female analog to Smell standard-bearers No Age. Yet their demise inspired only a handful of respectful eulogies around the blogosphere and little of the hand-wringing about the state of women in rock that accompanied Sleater-Kinney's breakup in 2006.
The reasons behind the differing reactions to the departure of two important female acts from the music scene are manifold, but one of the easier explanations is the vitality and breadth of Mika Miko's local heirs apparent. Over the last half-decade, a group of exciting artists united by their use of inexpensive home recording technology has begun to emerge out of the Silver Lake, Echo Park and downtown scenes.
The performers below rank among the brightest talents continuing the female rock tradition -- which, of course, dates back decades -- though there are others around here, including Glasser, Warpaint, Julia Holter, Sarah Negahdari of the Happy Hollows and Annie Hardy of Giant Drag, to name a few.
Mika Miko might be sorely missed, but no one's hanging on the telephone.
Best Coast
This is the situation: Bethany Cosentino, 23, La Crescenta-raised with blond bangs, fled to New York City two years ago to attend Eugene Lang College. Studying journalism and creative nonfiction, she read Joan Didion, David Foster Wallace and other authors she enjoyed; she interned at the Fader magazine, where she penned a fashion column. But midway through her second semester, she realized she was miserable.
"Initially, being in a snowstorm was nice, but after two weeks, I started thinking about all my friends enjoying 80-degree sunshine in February," Cosentino said.
"New York is an amazing city with a wonderful culture and history, but I had to come home."
Returning to La Crescenta to finish the semester from her mom's house, Cosentino took study breaks by unearthing an acoustic guitar to relieve her anxiety over her departure. Obsessed with surf music, the Ronettes and the Angels, and Fleetwood Mac, the young woman who had spent plenty of time in high school sneaking out to see punk rock shows at the Smell started writing songs that conjured images of white sand, tall surf, strong sun and stronger smoke -- all tinged with post-teen angst and her newfound ardor for L.A.
Cosentino aptly described the songs as "stoned love letters to imaginary boyfriends."
The name Best Coast seemed obvious.
When Cosentino passed on her songs to her friend and future bandmate Bobb Bruno, a well-respected fixture within the underground community, they quickly assumed a life of their own. Primarily recorded at Bruno's home studio, a trio of 7-inch records earned Cosentino instant acclaim, including a coveted best new music designation from Pitchfork.
"[Cosentino] has a great ear for melody, and being around the local punk scene has helped her style become more unique than others striving for a similar sound," said Dean Spunt, the singer-drummer of No Age, whose label, Post Present Medium, is releasing a forthcoming Best Coast 7-inch single.
In the middle of a Southern California winter, Cosentino has developed a new favorite obsession, MTV's reality series "Jersey Shore." While elitists might scoff at the lowbrow fixation, it's precisely Cosentino's ability to balance pop and underground sensibilities that has made her sound so unique.
"That type of person is unfathomable and almost exotic to my West Coast experiences," Cosentino said of the "Jersey Shore" cast members.
"But I respect that they've dealt with the winter and the cold months and are psyched that summer's finally arrived. I'm all about summer."
Dum Dum Girls
It's a dumb move to call Dee Dee of the Dum Dum Girls "Kristin" -- as in Kristin Gundred, the given name of the frontwoman for the all-female quartet. Should you make this error, you will be politely asked to address her by the pseudonym she adopted when she first named her group after an Iggy Pop song and a Vaselines album.

orange + chocolate olive oil cake
thank you so much to those that help me with spring cleaning. if you already paypal me your postage, your package is on its way.
this is completely off topic but i thought to just put it out there. a knitter from europe left me a message about some books that i posted last week..so i went to the post office to get a shipping estimate for her. guess what! to ship 3 books across the atlantic ocean cost a whoping $42 (that's the cheapest option)..it's so ridiculous! the postage even cost more than the content. i totally understand that the postal workers need to get paid and with the gas price and all..BUT still, i cant believe it cost that much to ship 3 books, i mean the plane or the boat is not going carry just one package right? i feel so bad. i wonder who is going to buy or ship anything from US anymore...
anyways, some happy thought...last nite, i made a loaf of yummy olive oil cake. i've never make olive oil cake, surprised how good it taste even with the absence of butter. i couldn't find blood orange as the recipe called for..so i substitute with some mandarin oranges. i grated some zest and used the juice as instructed. it was super easy! most of the ingredients you could find it in your pantry. you don't even need a mixer for this recipe. i added some michel cluizel chocolate chips towards the end..cause we love chocolate :) bake a loaf if you're running out of breakfast idea. it's really yummy! recipe is from here.


text: Surveillance video shows what police believe was the beginning of a robbery.Early Friday morning, a doctor pulled up to a Harper Woods gas station near I-94 and parked his white Mercedes SUV at a pump before walking inside with wallet in hand.Once inside, the doctor began to open his wallet. A man in a white T-shirt turned around multiple times and even let the doctor jump ahead of him in line. The man seemed to peer over the doctor's shoulder to get a better look at the cash he slid into his front shirt pocket before leaving the gas station.Police said as the doctor pulled off, a grayish-blue Dodge Charger pulled off, as well. The men inside followed the doctor all the way to his St. Clair Shores home. He did not notice he was being followed until he saw a gun in his face."One of the black males was carrying a nickel-plated handgun, pointed it at him and they said to give up his money," said Gordon Carrier with St. Clair Shores Police."The first thing one of the suspects did was approach him, reach for his top pocket, pull out money, reached in his front pockets, tried to get whatever else he had, and then they fled on foot."Police said the victim was robbed in his own driveway steps away from his front door.The robbery was not the doctor's fault, but police said this should serve as a wake up call to everyone. Be aware of your surroundings.

Don't do windows? Now there's an eco-friendly way to not clean as often. A Denmark company has a new cleaning product called ShineOn that keeps windows free from dirt and click here generic cialis india grime for up to try it cheap canadian pharmacy two years.
{digg}http://digg.com/environment/Your_Windows_Could_Soon_Clean_Themselves{/digg}ShineOn is a thin coating developed using nanotechnology by SCF Technologies. The coating chemically bonds with glass to create a layer that uses the sun's energy to "burn" loose dirt that gathers on the glass and loosen it from the wholesalers of viagra surface. The dirt is then washed away from the window by rain.
The coating, which contains titanium dioxide, is applied in two stages with windows prepared with a special fluid to remove all possible contaminants. ShineOn is then polished onto the window with a cloth. Though other dirt-burning coatings have been developed in the past, this is the first that can be applied to existing windows, making retrofit possible without replacing and landfilling millions of panes of glass.
The product makes sense now for commercial use even though the initial application is expensive. The eventual savings are tremendous when you consider how much money is regularly spent on cleaning towers that are surfaced almost entirely in glass. Environmental benefits will come from using less traditional detergents. In a typical modern office building, windows are cleaned up to 100 times over two years.
Now if only someone will discover an energy-free way to fold laundry.

This blog entry continues my series of answers to the eternal question: What did you see that was new at (insert trade show name)? The trade show of the moment is Lightfair 2009, held May 5 to 7 in the Big Apple. The subject of this posting is LED "lamp" units.
One of the prevailing product-introduction categories at the show was LED-based replacements for conventional lamps. While there has been much talk and excitement in recent years about LED technology, I have always believed that talk about the technology itself was irrelevant to the specifier/end user and really only of interest to research scientists and manufacturers. It has been my opinion that the only thing that will matter to the specifier/end user is what form factors the manufacturers will be able to deliver to the marketplace and how well will they be able to produce "lamps" that fit into existing fixtures. Based on what I saw at Lightfair, it looks like the manufacturers are finding great success delivering LED-based lamps that will function in existing fixtures. Heat dissipation is clearly still a major issue, but design innovation seems to be overcoming that hurdle and I heard one mention of progress developing heat-resistant LED packages.
One standout example of an LED lamp that will function in existing fixtures was the prototype LR6 LED recessed downlight, shown by Cree LED Lighting Solutions Inc., Durham, NC. The prototype delivers 665 lumens while consuming 6.5 W of electricity with an efficacy of 102 lumens per watt and a power factor greater than 0.9. The lamp features the company's TrueWhite technology, which produces a 92 CRI (color-rendering index) and a 3500 K color temperature. The memorable part of the demonstration I saw was the lamp's ability to render true reds, an important feature for the retail industry.—Gary L. Parr

Riot rumours: how misinformation spread on Twitter during a time of crisis
During the riots in London this past summer, a lot of information spread quickly about what was going on. Some of that information was true and some was not so true. The Guardian explores this spread of information on Twitter, and how fact and fiction seem to reveal themselves on their own:
A period of unrest can provoke many untruths, an analysis of 2.6 million tweets suggests. But Twitter is adept at correcting misinformation - particularly if the claim is that a tiger is on the loose in Primrose Hill.
Other rumors include when rioters cooked their own food at McDonald's (false), London Eye was set on fire (false), and Miss Selfridge was set on fire (true).
Each bubble represents a tweet and is sized by number of followers the tweeter has. The big one is usually the orignal tweet and the small ones that cluster around are retweets. Then the colors represent tweets that support, oppose, question, or comment. So when you play the animation for each rumor, bubbles swiftly pop up at the rumor peaks and then settle at true or false.
You can also use the scroll to move to a certain point in time, and roll over bubbles to see the tweets. (via @flowingdata)

Bishi - 'Albion Voice'
This is quite possibly the greatest song EVER written about being brown in the UK. It touches on everything I've ever thought about in relation to identity & nationhood plus it manages to be revolutionary & political as well as twee in a folk kind of way. Bishi is one of the most important artists we have (in my opinion) but she's also one of the most bonkers!
I wont tell a lie, but this track has had me blubbing like a baby on more than one occasion.

text: SHEBOYGAN, WI (WHBL) - Work continues on trying to get a budget in place for 2014 for Sheboygan County. County Administrator Adam Payne told the county board Tuesday that the county is limited by state statute to keep their tax levy increase for next year to less than one-percent. He said that means the county is limited to an increase of $387,000. Payne said work will continue over the next weeks to try to trim over half-a-million dollars from the current budget plan to meet this level. As for what impact this will have on county taxpayers, there will be an increase in the county tax rate due to a drop in equalized property values. The increase should be around 13 dollars for a 100-thousand dollar home.

A short history of RBB, A bit of the future, and a toast to selflessness
It's been really annoying after returning from this final deployment because all the computers I had access to prior were no longer around. So that's been a real doozy. There are also a lot of things going on personally with me as well that have kept me from putting as much time and effort into RBB, which is unfortunate because this is a very important movement. I inherited RBB from Justin Griffith and have taken the lead on it. It was never my intent or end-goal, but it was something I just … [Read more...]

Dear John To whomever you are. There may be some confusion on what it's like to be an atheist in the military. Don't worry! That is okay. I understand.

I'm willing to extend an invitation to you in helping understand that bigotry is wrong. So is lying and intentionally misleading people. Although, I understand mistakes can be … [Read more...]
Why the move?
The chief motivation for moving the RBB blog to Patheos is to circumvent the increasingly frequent blocking of our site at many military bases.These bases allow similar content from religious perspectives, so it's not just some blanket policy on blogs. Frankly, this is likely to come up again (and again). Even the main website for the festival we launched was blocked by many military bases, despite the event being largely staffed by DoD personnel.

When you access financial assistance at Hartnell, you will begin to tailor your educational path to fulfill your aspirations, whether you want to transfer to a four-year university, earn a certificate of completion, or earn an associate degree.
Financial Aid programs attempt to fill the gap that may exist between the cost of education and the money available to students from family, employment, savings, and other resources. Hartnell's Financial Aid programs assist students who might otherwise be unable to continue their education due to financial hardship.
We offer a variety of financial aid programs that are funded by government and private sources to help you get through college. These include grants, work-study opportunities, scholarships, and loan programs. Since there are so many ways to finance your education, Hartnell's Financial Aid Office can provide key information to help you access the kind of assistance to meet your unique needs. You can also use our NET PRICE CALCULATOR to get as estimate on how much it will cost to attend Hartnell and the amount of grants and scholarships you may qualify for at Hartnell.

Important Announcements
There is a new 600% (6 FT Years) lifetime limit to Pell grant. Watch for notifications from the Department of Ed or check www.nslds.ed.gov to see what percent you have reached. Plan ahead, so you can save 300% for when you transfer.
Beginning Summer Term 2012 Hartnell Community College will no longer participate in the Federal Direct Student Loan Program. Hartnell will continue to make a variety of federal, state, and private grants, scholarships, and work programs available to students.
Hartnell's student loan default rate has risen drastically in the last two years. This is the result of some Hartnell students not repaying their student loans. The Department of Education has determined that schools with high default rates may not be allowed to participate in other financial aid programs, like Pell Grant. In order to protect Hartnell's ability to provide other financial aid to students, Hartnell has made the decision to no longer offer Direct Student Loans.

In a world where people use social media more than telephones, it could be hard to see how political campaigns are still sticking to traditional methods to get their messages out.
But they are.
Conrad Lucas, chairman of the West Virginia Republican Party, and Derek Scarbro, executive director of the West Virginia Democratic Party, said candidates on both ends of the political spectrum are still picking up the telephone and knocking on doors to connect with voters.
"All of our candidates knock on doors and make phone calls to voters," Lucas said. "One-on-one contact is, and will always be, the best mode of communication from a candidate to a voter."
Additionally, voters are still asking for bumper stickers and yard signs to show their support for candidates. Chad Holland, executive director of the West Virginia Republican Party, said the party ordered thousands of Mitt Romney yard signs, but all of them were taken within a month. In early October, the wait time to receive more Romney signs was two weeks.
However, Scarbro said it seems as if fewer voters are asking for signs and stickers. That may be partly because the Democratic Party encourages candidates to spend their resources elsewhere, mainly on advertisements.
"We kind of encourage our candidates to spend less resources on things like that and spend more of their resources making sure they communicate their message to the voters," he said. "We actively encourage our candidates to make sure they're spending more of their time and money in their campaigns communicating their message, their platform, their ideas and making sure they get that out to voters in the form of TV ads, radio ads, mail, brochures. It is possible you may see a decrease in the amount of stickers, signs and trinket type stuff for campaigns. Part of that is because we're trying to make sure our candidates talk to the voters about the issues. We think that's more important."
But younger voters are typically more attracted to social media forums such as Facebook and Twitter. Cartney McCracken, a social media strategist and client relations manager with Rainmaker, said smart candidates take advantage of social media and the voters those forums target.
"In the world of smartphone politics, voters are constantly connected to campaigns from iPhone apps to Pandora ads to promoted tweets," McCracken said. "For candidates, social media allows them a unique opportunity to be constantly connected to voters, giving them top-of-the-mind awareness that's a critical competitive advantage."
Another advantage, McCracken said, is social media allows candidates to target specific groups of voters and open up a "digital dialogue" on issues that voting block may see as important. Those discussions offer more insight than does scientific polling, McCracken said.
Both Lucas and Scarbro said their parties use social media to reach voters. Lucas said he has encouraged Republican candidates to use social media as much as possible.
"This allows our candidates to have one-on-one communication with the voters, which allows a deeper and broader relationship between the voters and the candidates that will serve them," Lucas said. "As the state party, we place heavy emphasis on social media and are proud to far outpace Democrats in our Facebook presence."
Scarbro said social media is helpful because candidates can convey a broader message and give voters far more information than they could on a sticker or sign.
"Social media, Facebook and Twitter are free resources to any campaign and a more important medium," Scarbro said. "It's just going to grow in importance. It's easy to put a video on your social media site, your website, your campaign's YouTube page, and communicate a great deal more information to voters than you could ever convey on a sticker or on a sign."
Despite the push on social media, candidates still take advantage of traditional media, specifically television ads. The Center for Individual Freedom, a Washington, D.C.-based organization, recently spent $1.59 million in ad buys for the attorney general race. The organization supports Republican challenger Patrick Morrisey. The Republican Governors Association has also spent big money in West Virginia on TV ads in support of gubernatorial candidate Bill Maloney. According to the Associated Press, non-candidate spending on television ads has topped $5.2 million in West Virginia.
However, those ads typically only show one side of the issue, whereas social media allows for a conversation, McCracken said. The candidates she represents use social media to respectfully engage voters and offer more insight into their characters.
"Social media is a conversational platform that fosters discussions between candidates and voters," McCracken said. "The candidates I work for conduct themselves respectfully online and offline, always holding themselves to high standard regardless of who they're speaking with."
As the world becomes more and more consumed with technology, are the more traditional campaign methods going to fall by the wayside? Probably not so soon, party representatives say.
"Traditional campaign methods, like yard signs and bumper stickers, are still very important," Lucas said. "It has been impossible to keep Romney/Ryan yard signs and bumper stickers in our offices. As soon as they arrive, people grab them up with fervor."
Meanwhile, Democrats continue to rely on direct communication with voters.
"Sometimes that personal touch is more powerful than any campaign ad anyone might see on TV," Scarbro said.

Food, Fun & generous Friends came together in the elegant ambiance of the Courses Restaurant to raise substantial funds for our furry friends at the Rescue Center.
Keith Parish, Ivy Tech Hospitality Management Program Coordinator, planned the perfect evening and the students in the Customer Service, Beverage Service and Specialized Cuisines classes took such good care of us.
The food and wine were outstanding, Dick Wolfsie kept the party rolling, and "Elvis rocked the Penthouse."
We will do this again!
Did you know ...
Stouffer's Inn at 28th and Meridian was the favorite lodging place for celebrities when they visited Indianapolis?
The penthouse restaurant, The Ramsgate, with its amazing view of downtown Indianapolis, was the place for a lovely dining experience?

Consistent with UMBC's mission, The Shriver Center is helping to advance the national conversation on the role of work and service-based learning in higher education and the integration of theory and practice through the scholarship of application. Shriver Center initiatives provide opportunities for the systematic reflection and examination necessary for determining the extent to which Center programs (Professional Practice, Service-Learning, Choice Program, Peaceworker Program) have achieved their goals and objectives. The Center'Äôs evaluation and assessment efforts provide information about Center programs (e.g. The Choice Program) that is a key in attracting continued funding, as well as other opportunities for expansion and influence in the Baltimore Metropolitan community. In turn, monetary awards and community recognition attract local, state and national attention to UMBC and The Shriver Center.

Automated Video Database
Simply install Frameline 47 on your system to find, use & share every video file, clip & frame on your system, in your office, or within a workflow.
The easiest way to build a video database…automatically.
We hope you found everything you needed in order to do your video projects. We also hope you find the best online pokies at pokiesfinder.com.
When using Frameline 47, an indexing agent scans drives for video files, extracts their embedded descriptions & populates a fast SQL database.
Because the files themselves hold all the information you have added, nothing gets lost or disconnected, even when swapping files between systems. When moving to a new system, for example, all you need to do is move the files, and launch the application, everything else is automatic.
Our metadata format is based on the international MPEG7 metadata standard ISO/IEC 15938. Find out more about our video metadata schema.

(1) Collection required.— The Secretary shall collect from each United States commercial provider receiving a loan guarantee under this section an amount equal to the amount, as determined by the Secretary, to cover the cost, as defined in section 502(5) of the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990 (2 U.S.C. 661a (5)), of the loan guarantee.

At this point it's very difficult to say when and how this will all will get resolved because the CME, the CFTC, the FBI, and the bankruptcy court all need to complete certain investigations before the monies are released to their rightful owners, albeit with what looks to be an 11.6% haircut for the privilege of doing business with MF Global. If I were an MF client, I would certainly ask for some of those European sovereign bonds MF bought with their money to make up the shortfall!

Parker (Jason Statham/Jennifer Lopez) Photo Gallery
Parker (Jason Statham), is a hardened professional criminal who will do whatever it takes to get what he wants, living by his own code of ethics – don't steal from people who can't afford it and don't hurt people who don't deserve it. But when he's double-crossed by his crew and left for dead, it's time for payback. Co-starring Jennifer Lopez, Michael Chiklis and Nick Nolte, and directed by Taylor Hackford, Parker is based on a character created by Donald E. Westlake. View photos…

Jonathan Renna, photo by Sian Richards.
Jonathan Renna was born in Ottawa, Ontario and trained at
Canada's National Ballet School. He joined The National Ballet of Canada in
1997, leaving in 2000 to dance with Northern Ballet Theatre in England and
Alberta Ballet. Mr. Renna re-joined the National Ballet in 2007 and was
promoted to First Soloist in 2009.
Mr. Renna's repertoire with the National Ballet includes the
role of Mercutio in Romeo and Juliet, Don
José in Carmen and Prince Gremin in Onegin as well as roles in The Nutcracker, The Sleeping Beauty, Giselle,
Swan Lake, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, The Seagull, Hamlet, West
Side Story Suite, Chroma, Russian Seasons, The Man in Black, Pur ti Miro and Emergence. Recently, Mr.
Renna danced in the Canadian
premiere of Nijinsky by John Neumeier.
Mr. Renna is an instructor at both the National Ballet's Summer
Dance Intensive and In Studio, the National Ballet's
recreational dance and fitness programme for all ages and levels.
Mr. Renna danced with the company in 24 Preludes by Chopin at the 2010 Cultural Olympiad at the Winter
Olympics in Vancouver.
You are leading the National Ballet's first Summer
Dance Intensive for aspiring dancers. Tell us about the programme.
Kate Kernaghan and I started preparing the program we wanted to introduce the
participants to several different styles of dance, offering
the kids a selection of great teachers from all forms of dance. We have
42 students in all and have separated them into two groups by age. The
program offers students 14 - 18 a chance to work with a soloist from the National
Ballet, credited teachers from Canada's National Ballet School and alumni from last
season's So You Think You Can Dance Canada in a wide variety of dance
styles including ballet, lyrical jazz, contemporary, repertoire, pointe and hip hop. The students are dancing five hours a day, Monday to Friday.
What interests you most about teaching?
I love when
I can explain something to a student and help them understand and apply what's being taught. Not every student learns the same and not every student
understands the first explanation. Teaching is fun but a
challenge, you have to have a lot of creativity and patience.
What brought you to ballet? When did you know
dance would be your career?
An old teacher of mine told me that ballet would
help me with my jazz movements, giving strength and structure to my
dancing. When I
was 20, I left the National Ballet and took a year off and I really decided that ballet was the career for me. A little late but better late than never.
Do you have a favourite role?
always seem to play the bad boy characters like Tybalt and Heathcliff,
so I have to say that I really loved playing to role of Prince Gremin in Onegin. He had a soft quality about him that I found very appealing, also being onstage with Sonia Rodriguez was pretty great too!
What production in the 60th anniversary
season are you most excited about?
The 60th anniversary is a big celebration and it's wonderful
just to be a part of it.I'm really looking forward to the Western
Tour. I'm dancing a great role in Emergence and I also get
the opportunity to visit my family in Calgary and Vancouver.
What do you like most about Toronto in the Summer?
Toronto is so great in the summer, I love how the whole city
seems to come to life once the good weather hits. I love not having
to wear gloves and heavy jackets, I love BBQ's, sitting on patios with friends,
riding my bike and generally being outside as much as I can.
Onegin "As Prince Gremin, Jonathan Renna was a
picture of dutiful love."Danceview
Times, 2011
Chroma "Greta Hodgkinson and Jonathan Renna stood out in their pas
de deux to The Hardest Button to Button.
Beyond their technical brilliance, they made their steps interesting." Danceview Times, 2012
Carmen "Jonathan Renna as Escamillo is costumed
like a bull including grey skin and head horns. He represents, presumably,
carnal lust and the male testosterone archetype, and is given suitable
animalistic movement and a brutal coupling with Carmen." The Globe and Mail, 2009

Grant unto thy Church, we beseech Thee, O merciful God, that She, being gathered together by the Holy Ghost, may be in no wise troubled by attack from her foes. O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.

Food For Thought
"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."
