Newsbites: The biblical spin-offs edition!
2. Universal Pictures, having scored a major international hit with the Abba-themed musical Mamma Mia! last year, is now developing a remake of Jesus Christ Superstar (1973). One director the studio has spoken to -- though they're not in active negotiations with anyone just yet -- is Marc Webb, whose credits include numerous music videos as well as the current indie hit (500) Days of Summer. -- Hollywood Reporter
3. Year One is coming to DVD and Blu-Ray in October -- and the bonus features will include an "alternate ending" currently titled "Sodom Destruction". Will there be pillars of salt? -- IGN
4. Magdalena, the comics-based action flick about a modern-day superhero descended from Jesus and Mary Magdalene, now has a writer and a director. The writer is Holly Brix, whose credits include The Butterly Effect 3: Revelations; and the director is Ryûhei Kitamura, whose last film was Clive Barker's Midnight Meat Train (2008). Hmmm. Jenna Dewan and Luke Goss, the latter of whom played the title character in One Night with the King (2006), are still attached to star. -- Variety, Hollywood Reporter

In a demonstration of official Washington's often curious logic, the Senate is expected to vote down both a slashing GOP budget bill and a less painful Democratic plan to demonstrate progress instead of gridlock.
The idea is to show both sides that they need to move toward each other to break a bitter stalemate over how much to cut spending as Congress wraps up last year's unfinished budget work. The combatants are facing a March 18 deadline that already has Republicans in the House drafting another stopgap spending measure to make sure the government doesn't shut down if a broader agreement isn't reached by then.
Democrats on Wednesday are poised to kill the House-passed GOP plan, saying it cuts too deeply into programs like education, college aid, housing subsidies and a food program for low-income pregnant women and their babies. Republicans and some Democratic moderates are likely to kill a White House-backed Senate plan that cuts agency operating budgets about $11 billion below last year's levels, saying that's not enough when the deficit is projected to hit $1.6 trillion this year.
Freshman Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia said the kabuki theater is a waste of time.
"Republicans will say Democrats don't go far enough. Democrats will say Republicans go too far," Manchin said Tuesday. "The truth is both are right, and both proposals will fail. Worse still, everyone in Congress knows they will fail."
Manchin's solution was to suggest roping President Barack Obama into nitty-gritty talks on the catchall spending bill — a job Obama assigned to Vice President Joe Biden.
At issue Wednesday are competing $1.2 trillion budget bills to fund the day-to-day operating budgets of every federal agency and provide a fresh $158 billion infusion for military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Obama has been particularly generous to domestic agencies in the two years he's been in office, and Republicans controlling the House have promised to try to reduce such domestic "discretionary" spending back to levels in place in 2008.
The House GOP measure, Democrats say, would cram a year's worth of cuts into just six months, greatly disrupting the operations of the government and leading to furloughs of many thousands of federal employees. The possibility of furloughs of federal workers doesn't faze most Republicans.
"The only entity in America that's not sacrificing during this economic downturn is federal government workers," said Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky. "I can't guarantee that somebody might not … be affected. But we have largely insulated the federal government from this recession."
McConnell and his fellow Republicans say the Democratic alternative — it contains just $5 billion in fresh cuts — doesn't go nearly far enough.
"Democrats are going to have to do a lot better than this if we stand a chance of getting our nation's fiscal house in order," he said. "Frankly, it's embarrassing."

One Response to "Senate may kill both Democratic, GOP budgets"
Billions for this, Billions for that. It's ~all~ an obscenity of the first order.
Forget this "stop gap" stuff too. Send them home. Let them join the ranks of the unemployed. Stop the madness…we don't need them.
The Founders set up a system that will allow the periodic non-functioning of the legislative branch of government. Let them face their constituents for at least 3 months. Let them face the basic working, blue collar, tax payer and see if a few don't get fired for their troubles.
Let's shut them down. We don't need them. We never have. Look at what they've given us (to name just a very few):
-"Entitlements", about 1/3 of this country receives tax payer funded assistance in some form.
If you take out legitimate disability claims, and retired people getting retirement benefits…there are still millions of people that those of us that are lucky enough to still have work support. Yet they "vote" to siphon ever more in an unending process as ~they~ see fit…
– The "war" of poverty, and the "war" on drugs. Welcome to the two biggest crocks of sh*t ever passed off as legitimate legislation. Trillions of dollars wasted for nothing more that the building of bigger and bigger bureaucracies, and incremental advancement of the police state in direct defiance of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
-The Patriot act. Neither patriotic nor an act. Just more expansion of the police state. Instead of "You touch my junk, I'll have you arrested", a free and sovereign citizen of this country should have been able to warn these clowns that "You grab my junk, I'll leave you broken and bleeding on the floor". A fair warning. A verbal reaffirmation of the Gadsden principle. What has the systematic encroachment of or freedoms given us? Lines of complacent sheeple, willing to be assaulted, molested, and walked over by the thugs that think they can do anything they want to anyone they want…just to be allowed to get on an airplane. Don't misunderstand me here. I am in favor of reasonable amounts of security at airports. What most people don't see is that the system is set up to be "reactive" not "proactive" and it is also set up to detect large groups and the logistics that it takes to run such a group. Small groups or individuals will simply slip through largely undetectable. So once again the law abiding are punished by their own government because they're…well…convenient, and won't stand up for their own 4th Amendment rights.
The very response that I am now submitting to this page as commentary, will no doubt be parsed by some thug in a cube somewhere to see if I qualify for a ticket to Gitmo. I love my country. I believe in the greatness that this country has been and can be again, but I ~loathe~ the vaunting ambition, and the absolute illegality currently seen as "normal" by governments of any stripe.
They are not to big to fail. I say let them run out of money, and send them home, then the rest of us can simply get on with living in peace without those that contribute nothing, and yet demand (or even confiscate) so much of country's prosperity for their own nefarious purposes.

"To grow in grace just means there is more of God's action in your life, so you can grow more and more. Grace is as old as the Bible. If we had never sinned, we would still need grace because we would still need God acting in our lives. That's what we are built for."
"One of the tasks of true friendship is to listen compassionately and creatively to the hidden silences. Often secrets are not revealed in words, they lie concealed in the silence between the words or in the depth of what is unsayable between two people."

Does our background impact our approach towards work?
Does employees faith,geographical location,beliefs and culture impacts their ways of handling their professional life?If it does how well related it is with an organizations performance.

Jun 13 2013: I think you can distill this conversation down to 1 key area "ATTITUDE".
You then can divide this into 2 distinct areas:
POSITIVE attitude
NEGATIVE attitude
Irrespective of an employees faith, geographical location or culture, a positive attitude will always see an organisation perform better when it's employees possess it than in those organisations where its employees don't! :D
Jun 13 2013: Let me share with you an example,in most of the cases when your work requires lobbying and under the table deals to manage your official work healthy.Now in these cases even people in many countries accept it as part and parcel of work at the same point many culture and religions do not allow it.Now is it going to affect the normal routine business?

Chile: Why do we Need Exceptions to Copyright?
We have already explained how copyright can clash with freedom of expression. But are there legal alternatives in a copyright system that is increasingly restrictive? If all works are always an interpretation of other works, can we have access to them without necessarily becoming "delinquents"? The good news is that yes, we can, although there are limitations. We have released a new video in the #NoTemasaInternet (Don't fear the Internet) campaign and will soon upload more material about this issue.

|58,343 ha
|0 - 3m
|Year of IBA assessment
Summary The IBA is a staging area for >1% of the global population of Grey-tailed Tattler and has supported breeding colonies comprised of >1% of the global populations of Brown Booby and Lesser Frigatebird.
Site description The IBA is identical to Ashmore Reef National Nature Reserve, which lies approximately 840 km west of Darwin and 610 km north of Broome in the Timor Sea. The IBA captures three islands - West Island, Middle Island and East Island - and surrounding rocky reefs, tidal sand flats and inshore waters which are important for seabirds. The IBA excludes Cartier and Scott Reefs and Browse Island. Ashmore Reef is a shelf-edge platform reef consisting of three islets surrounded by intertidal reef and sand flats and deeper subtidal reef and sand flats. The southern and windward side of the reef has developed a robust algal ridge, which extends unbroken around to the eastern rim. The reef flat is well defined and up to two kilometres wide behind this algal ridge. The islands support herbs and grasses with fringing bands and/or remnant patches of shrubland, and West Island also has some coconut trees. The climate is dry tropical with prominent cloud, rain and thunderstorm activity with most of the mean annual 950 mm of rainfall occurring in the monsoon season between December and May. Cyclones can occur between November and May. The south-easterly trade winds blow strongly, regularly at 20-25 knots, from May to September. Fresh water lenses develop in the sand during the monsoon season; a fresh water pump installed near the beach on West Island is maintained by Environment Australia for use by visiting Indonesian fishermen.

Other biodiversity Ashmore Reef is reported to have the highest diversity and number of sea snakes for any reef system: 14 species have been identified but as many as 19 species may be present. Marine turtles nest on all the islands. Green Turtle Chelonia mydas are the most common nesting turtle, with an estimated population of approximately 10,000 (Guinea 1995). There is a small population of Loggerhead turtles Caretta caretta nesting on the islands and a smaller population of Hawksbill turtles Eretmochelys imbricata that utilise the waters of Ashmore Reef. Regular sightings of Dugong Dugong dugon, sometimes with calves. The islands also support a limited variety of plant species (Pike & Leach 1997) and a suite of terrestrial invertebrates including hermit crabs, 127 species of insect, seven species of spider and a single species each of millipede, centipede and pseudoscorpion (Brown 1999). The Asian House Gecko is common on the islands (Commonwealth of Australia 2002).
Protection status Ashmore Reef National Nature Reserve
Access/Land-Owner requests The only permitted point of public access is the eastern beach of Western Island. Public access to Middle and East Islands is prohibited.

Rolax Massaging Footrest
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Misc. Tech, PC / Laptop
If your mother/spouse/partner sits at a computer all day and you want a last minute present for Mom's Day, how about Rolax Massaging Footrest? At a size of 5 x 17 x 14-inches, it's big enough to share and small enough to sneak into your cubicle at work. The ergonomic tilted platform features a padded surface and wooden massager ball to relieve foot and/or back pain by improving circulation. Think of it as a gift for $39.95 for the next time said relation asks you to do the chore.

This really is a good gift for mothers! We recently got a foot massager for my mom and she loved it. If you are ever getting a gift for your mom and you have trouble deciding what to give, get a foot massager! Even this one will do.
I'm going to have to keep this in mind for Mother's Day next year… or for a present for myself sometime
I remember i had my floaters which had a similar shape,it realy relaxes you after some time on it considering it is much more dedicated to target pain in muscles.

Candidates Weigh In On Question 3
By: Michael C. Bailey

A new report is warning of dire consequences should Question Three pass, and even some local candidates who support the intent of the proposal think the ballot question itself is flawed.
The report released last week by the non-profit Massachusetts Taxpayers Foundation, "Question Three: Heading Over the Cliff," predicted massive cuts in local aid, heavy layoffs among municipal employees, a spike in property taxes, and other far-reaching repercussions from the passage of Question Three.
The binding referendum question on the November ballot, backed by the Libertarian-based Alliance to Roll Back Taxes, asks voters to approve cutting the state's 6.25 percent sales tax – which was increased by the Legislature last year from five percent – down to three percent. This move would reduce state revenue streams by up to $2.5 billion in Fiscal Year 2012, a fact that supporters and opponents alike generally agree on.
Where the two sides part ways is over how the loss of that funding would impact the Commonwealth.
The Alliance to Roll Back Taxes claims that the loss of revenue would simply force state government to tighten its belt and "cut government waste." This, according to the Alliance, includes duplication of effort among government agencies, exorbitant salaries, paying out pensions to former state employees later convicted of felonies, and local projects funded through the earmark process.
The group claimed that 41 cents out of every dollar spent by state government is "wasted," but this data comes from a 2008 opinion poll of voters rather than an objective analysis of state spending.
"It's so unfortunate because they've convinced people that this is the right thing to do, that we have all this waste," said Senate President Therese M. Murray (D – Plymouth).
She said many of the Alliance's suggestions are already in effect: the Legislature has over the past session consolidated the state's transportation and economic development agencies; convicted felons are legally barred from collecting state pensions; and the state budget has eschewed earmarks for the past two fiscal years.
The Alliance further claims that by cutting the sales tax, taxpayers would retain on average $688 a year, which they would return to the economy through increased spending and saving, which would in turn generate an estimated 33,000 new private sector jobs.
Reducing the tax would also help Massachusetts reclaim shopping activity currently being lost to tax-free New Hampshire, the Alliance stated.
Carla Howell, a former Libertarian candidate for governor and co-sponsor of the ballot question, decried the Massachusetts Taxpayers Foundation as a "business lobby group" that had nothing but "contempt for the everyday taxpayers." She called the report itself a "comedy" that overlooked billions of dollars in wasteful government spending.
State Services Decimated
However, according to the MTF report, the revenue loss would in FY12 only compound an existing $2 billion structural deficit, and because the tax cut would go into effect on January 1, 2011, the MTF said the state would have to make about $1 billion in emergency cuts to address the sudden loss of revenue in FY11.
James F. Munafo Jr., Republican candidate for State Representative of the Second Barnstable District, said that the immediate January 2011 implementation date was a serious flaw in the proposal, since it would give the Legislature virtually no time to thoroughly examine the financial impacts and craft a game plan.
Sen. Murray agreed, stating that the "lame duck Legislature" would be unable to agree on a plan of action during the largely unproductive holiday period. That would place the burden on Governor Deval L. Patrick, who would have to issue sweeping "9C" emergency cuts.
About half of the state's $32 billion in spending – which includes the annual and supplemental budgets – covers legal obligations to Medicaid, the Group Insurance Commission, the state pension fund, Chapter 70, the MBTA, and debt service. The MTF said the passage of Question Three would force lawmakers to eat into the state's $16.9 billion in discretionary spending, which would "decimate the core services" of state government, particularly in less affluent urban communities.
"Voter approval of Question 3 would result in across-the-board cuts of approximately 30 percent in virtually all state programs," the report stated, "including local aid, higher education, human services, prisons, courts, environmental protection, and state parks and beaches."
If the ballot question passes, the Foundation said the state would have to cut discretionary spending across the board by 28.4 percent (based on current spending levels). This would slash human services spending by $1.3 billion, health care spending by $1.2 billion, public safety by $631 million, and local aid by $473 million.
"Thousands would be terminated, programs would be shut down," Sen. Murray said, and municipal governments would be left scrambling to deal with a loss of anticipated state revenue – money around which they've already built their budgets.
As difficult to swallow as the sales tax might be, Sen. Murray said people who receive state-funded services need to be aware that those services need adequate funding to survive. "I think there's a big disconnect over what people see as services," she said. "People think that that will stay, all those programs will stay…it's not going to happen."
The Foundation noted that any given municipality's two major sources of revenue are state aid and property taxes, and the loss of the former would likely lead to an increase in the latter, even if the community in question made massive spending cuts at the local level.
F. Randal Hunt, Republican candidate for State Representative of the Fifth Barnstable District, said the MTF report said the financial impact to towns, should the question pass, would not be quite as severe as the MTF maintains.
"It is very effective to argue that your 'Yea' vote will overcrowd classrooms, requiring the fire marshal to be called (who just got fired), necessitating a police officer to respond to the commotion (who is in line at the DUA with the teacher and fire marshal)," wrote in a position paper on Question Three.
Using the MTF's figures, Mr. Hunt – a certified public accountant – said he calculated a $3.9 million loss of local aid to the towns of the fifth district (Barnstable, Bourne, Mashpee, and Sandwich). To compensate for this loss, assuming voters approved a necessary Proposition 2 ½ override, Mr. Hunt said homeowners would see on a home valued at $350,000 an average property tax increase of $66 per year.
"This ignores the fact that there are probably other ways to replace the lost aid without resorting to an override," he added.
Sen. Murray regarded Mr. Hunt's analysis as an over-simplification, pointing out that municipalities derive revenue through multiple state sources, not just standard local aid, Chapter 70 education aid, and Lottery Aid: regional school transportation, Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) payments for state-owned property within town borders, and various state trust funds.
"There's so many ways cities and towns get money, I just can't imagine that [Mr. Hunt] thinks it would just be $3.9 (million)," she said.
"It Goes Way Too Far"
Some local candidates for elected office oppose the question outright, while others support the general intent, but think going to a three percent sales tax is unreasonable.
"Voters are angry that state government raised taxes instead of tightening its belt. I share that frustration but I am not convinced cutting the sales tax to three percent is the right answer either," State Representative Susan D. Williams Gifford (R – Wareham) said.
"It goes way too far," Sen. Murray said. "Going back to three percent would have a devastating impact on state revenues."
She added that she would "love to see it go back to five percent" when the economy improves. "Nobody wanted to raise taxes."
"I'm opposed to the three percent rollback," David T. Vieira, Republican candidate for State Representative of the Third Barnstable District said. "I know everybody's all excited about the ballot question -- I'm opposed to that. I think that's too small of a revenue source to be able to provide the critical services necessary to meet the needs of the folks in the Commonwealth."
Mr. Vieira instead supports a five percent sales tax, as does Mr. Hunt, but Mr. Hunt said the ballot question is as much about sending a message to legislators as it is about reducing taxes.
"It's time to send a message to Beacon Hill that we are tired of our legislators not listening to the electorate," he said, recalling the voter-approved 2000 referendum question to reduce the income tax rate from 5.95 percent to five percent. The phased decrease was frozen by the Legislature in 2002 at 5.3 percent to deal with that year's fiscal crisis.
State Representative Matthew C. Patrick (D – Falmouth) said that cutting the sales tax – at all, much less to three percent – posed a serious threat. In a recent position paper he said that even smaller cuts of the sales tax and the state's 5.25 percent state income tax would "decimate public funding for schools, roads, emergency services and all that is needed to keep our communities safe and positive places to live."
"Without those funds, local aid will dry up and towns will be forced to cut essential programs or raise property taxes to make up the difference," he said. "It's an impractical proposition with dire consequences."
James H. Crocker Jr., candidate for State Senator of the Cape and Islands District, expected there would be impacts on both state and local governments, but questioned whether anyone knew the true extent of those impacts since mid-year supplemental budgets skew the data on what the state truly spends in a given year.
Thomas F. Keyes, a Sandwich Republican challenging Sen. Murray, said in a statement to the Enterprise he supports Question Three, and if it passes at the ballot box "I will honor the wishes of the voters."
Rep. Gifford echoed that sentiment, stating she would "support the position taken by the voters...I hope the message of the voters will he heard by my peers, since too often they seem to forget who has elected them."
Mr. Munafo, who said he supports a five percent sales tax, also decried the Legislature's habit of ignoring the will of the voters on similar issues such as the income tax rollback.
Although question opponents believe poorer urban communities would suffer more for the loss of state aid, Mr. Munafo said Cape Cod historically has received a proportionately smaller share of aid, and could take a harder hit than similar communities.
"It's a social contract we have with one another that we distribute aid evenly and fairly," he said, "but that's no longer the case, and I think we will have to really fight for our fair share."
Gov.Patrick, Republican gubernatorial candidate Charles D. Baker Jr., and unenrolled gubernatorial candidate Timothy P. Cahill have all spoken out against Question Three, but all three men have also vowed, if somewhat grudgingly, to support its enactment if voters approved the question.
A Boston Globe poll revealed that voters are so far leaning toward repealing the tax; 46 percent of those surveyed said they support the measure, 43 percent oppose it, and the rest are undecided.
The Libertarian-backed Center for Small Government has twice attempted to eliminate the state income tax, once in 2002 and again in 2008. In 2002 45 percent of voters supported the proposal, but in 2008 only 30 percent backed the question.

Do ads on social Web sites work? That's what AOL wanted to know. (And don't we all?)
"It's a question many have been trying to answer over the past several years, while the social media advertising industry continues to grow at an impressive clip," said AOL in a blog about its recent study. "eMarketer estimates that spending on social media ads will hit $6.6 billion in the US this year, growing more than 46 percent from 2013."
AOL acknowledged that there's no dearth of consumer studies on the topic, not a few of which suggest that social advertising does not work. So the company conducted its own, dubbed "Myth-Busting Social Media Advertising."

A kid named Johnny has to stop the destruction of his city.
From Guitar Hero to Black Friday, Shamoozal's got it covered!
Hey there Newgrounds, it sure has been a while since I uploaded anything substantial.
This is the tale of a young child and his imagination, based on the characters Allen and Merve created by my friend Jim Hort around 5 or 6 years ago when we were both in High School. I always liked the characters and wanted to tell some sort of origin story for the pair. Any meaning deeper then that you can decide for yourself.
This film was started over 2 years ago, first as a music video for a band, then after that fell apart it very much became its own thing. During the production of this film I have changed home 3 times, jobs twice, and god knows what other madness. I never want to take this long to complete anything ever again.
Heres hoping this film gets my butt back into gear and back on track with my film making.
Edit: Thanks for the front page Tom and Company
Special Thanks motherfucker
I'm just that special.
Of course you are <3
i didn't quite get the ending
Apparently a film with a nonsensical ending is still worthy of a 10.
a lot of other people have probably said this, but
That kid was on an acid trip.
Its sad we live in a world where use of the imagination is delegated only to those who take drugs.

you imagination is very surprising i like your work . the -1% is for i like see more moves in this flash =)
Good stuff
I really enjoyed this, the colors, the music and the design were all wonderful- it felt very surreal. The story seemed a little too long and was drawn out toward the end, though.
Also, did I see a ZekeyspaceLizard cameo when he first looked through the telescope?
Yeah, me and Zekey cameo in each others work quite frequently.

WINONA, Minn. (FOX 47) -- At least three horses in Minnesota have been euthanized because of a highly contagious equine virus called equine herpesvirus 1.
Three cases of the virus have been confirmed, but tests are pending on four other cases.
Veterinarians at Bluff Country Equine in Winona confirm they did treat one horse, but test results have not confirmed the virus.
According to Dr. John Bengfort, a person noticed symptoms while unloading a horse in Winona last Friday and contacted their office.
Bengfort said they treated the horse over the weekend, and said the horse, now being treated by its primary veterinarian, is improving.
The virus is highly contagious between horses, but Bengfort said it did not contract the virus in Winona.
Symptoms include fever, respiratory issues and neurological issues like incoordination and difficulty urinating.
At least two of the horses were euthanized because they could not get up.

William Blake
photo taken from 21stcenturysocialism.com
William Blake, 1757-1827, was an English poet, printmaker, and painter. Although unrecognized during his time, Blake's poetry is now considered sentimental to the history of poetry and visual arts. He is characterized as a writer of the Romantic movement in the 18th century. Romantic movement writers were known for criticizing the works of writers of the Enlightenment and scientific rationalization of nature.
From a very young age, Blake claimed to have visions. His first vision was at the age of four, where he claimed to of seen God who put his "head to the window" causing Blake to emotionally breakdown. Between the ages of eight and ten, Blake also claimed to have seen "a tree full of angels". He had visions all his life. As a matter of fact, he believed that he was personally instructed and and encouraged by Archangels to write his artistic works. Those Archangels who have instructed him apparently have repeatedly read and enjoyed his works. In a letter to William Hayley, Blake writes:
"I know that our deceased friends are more really with us than when they were apparent to our mortal part. Thirteen years ago I lost a brother, and with his spirit I converse daily and hourly in the spirit, and see him in my remembrance, in the region of my imagination. I hear his advice, and even now write from his dictate."
There are many other excerpts that can be taken from Blake's writings with him claiming to have been in contact with angels and deceased beings. The following excerpt is taken from a letter to Thomas Butts from Blake:
"Now I may say to you, what perhaps I should not dare to say to anyone else: That I can alone carry on my visionary studies in London unannoy'd, & that I may converse with my friends in Eternity, See Visions, Dream Dreams & prophecy & speak Parables unobserv'd & at liberty from the Doubts of other Mortals; perhaps Doubts proceeding from Kindness, but Doubts are always pernicious, Especially when we Doubt our Friends."
Were the visions Blake experienced real or just a hallucination? The world will never know. His works, however, will be cherished, and all the themes and underlying meanings buried within them will be read by millions of people, fulfilling Blake's intentions.

Organizations join coalitions or collaborations to combine various resources in working toward a shared goal. What if additional resources are needed?
Usually, coalitions seem to prefer less formal in-kind-type resource sharing. One organization might provide meeting space, another agrees to provide copying and postage. Sometimes, a more formal memorandum for sharing larger resources may be used. For example, one organization may agree to provide a specified amount of a staff member's time to work on a particular coalition effort. In other situations, the coalition may decide that member agencies do not have the needed resources available. Then, it may be necessary to undertake some sort of fundraising.
The search for funds may take one of two basic directions, a general fundraising campaign, or the submission of a specific proposal to a foundation or public organization.
You need to find out which funding sources are out there, who can tap them, what the rules are for using them and how to secure them. A funding search should embrace both private and public sources.
There is no magic in fundraising. Above all, you need to be a good planner, organizer, manager and marketer. When these skills are combined with enthusiasm and common sense, you will be successful.
Fundraising requires pre-planning and a well organized execution. Generally, it is not something that can be done well in response to a crisis. Designate someone as the chief fundraiser. Give that person the authority and responsibility to represent the cause and to raise the money needed. Provide the clerical and other kinds of support he or she needs to get started and do not expect instant results.
Building a group's credibility in the community takes time and that is the basis for successful development program. People must be aware of you and have a positive impression of what you do and how you manage your resources before they will support you.
To hit a "home run" with your efforts, all four parts should be developed before a campaign begins. Any costs associated with fundraising should be included in campaign budget (including brochures, postage, plaques or mementos), with the funds to be raised for program activities. The Ohio State University Winter 1990 BUCK$ LINE contains helpful information on the "successful ask" that relates to cultivation and solicitation. It underlines how there should be an ongoing, two-way relationship with potential donors, not just a "quick hit- and-run to the bank."
When you are unable to secure all the needed funds from within you own community, foundation grants and government grants and contracts can help. Many foundations are interested in helping reputable community groups in meeting local needs. Competition for funding can be stiff.
Generally, all funding organizations like to see an organized plan or proposal for upcoming activities and expenditures. It is not uncommon for a foundation to initially ask for a brief letter (two to three pages) telling about the organization, your plans and the amount of funding requested. These requests should describe the following in specific terms:
The process of preparing proposals for government funding depends on the funding agency. Although different programs may require different formats for the proposals, applicants for government funding should be prepared to include the following standard sections in their proposals.
If the problem is long-term, a coalition is likely to have two alternatives. The problem or need should be limited so the approach is do-able within the period the funds are available. If long- range staff needs are foreseen, the coalition needs to approach a regular source of dollars about assuming continuing costs for the position(s). The availability of a funding source might be limited. Some organizations fund "new, innovative" efforts for short periods, then move on to other "innovative" approaches to community priorities. This provides the donor with regular visibility to the public.
After members of a community organization begin to address a problem, they frequently consider developing a special program or project. Remember time is a resource that coalition members already possess. Before rushing into writing a proposal, figure out whether this is what you really want. Despite whether you are applying to a foundation, corporation or a government agency, there will always be many more requests than there are funds available.
The benefits of obtaining a grant, compared with how time could otherwise be spent, may not make it worthwhile to seek the funds.
Is the projected program realistically within the capability of the agency? Government funders, for example, might request that projects reduce delinquency by an unusually large percentage. Contracting with unrealistic expectations guarantees failure. The period for funding may not be conducive to the accomplishment of agency objectives.
The lure of funds has its price in conditions and restrictions. There may be limitations on client eligibility, constraints on the manner in which clients will be served, qualifications required of staff, prescribed methods of reporting agency activities, review or internal agency records, fiscal accounting review and the restraints on being able to criticize governmental bodies. There is always the potential for conflict between the funder's need for control and the organization's requirement for autonomy. What are the possible consequences of the program being ended after a designated period? What are the potential effects on staff and, more importantly, on clients if the project cannot continue to receive funds? An assessment must be made of the prospects for continuing the program, or the consequences of its discontinuance, before the proposal is submitted.
Cash flow is another problem related to reimbursement. Anticipate a time delay between the submission of the first invoice and the receipt of funds.
The clear message: know what you are getting into when you consider applying for funds.
Hundreds of foundations exist in any large or even moderate-sized urban community. Find which ones are right for your coalition. The best approach is to identify initially a core of foundations that match your interest.
To learn about community, private and corporate foundations, write to the Foundation Center, 888 Seventh Avenue, New York, NY 10106. They provide a catalogue that describes major sources of information about foundations. The Center also has a cooperating network of 90 library reference collections in all 50 states, Mexico and Puerto Rico. Contact the Center, (212) 620-4230, in New York to find out the location of the branch in your state.
The federal government prints sources of information that can alert you to available program grants. One of the most significant of these is the Federal Register, published each weekday. The "Highlight" section in the front lists major topics. The "Notices" section describes grant availability. Announcements are made of rules governing programs, so that though money is not immediately available, you gain some idea of what grants are likely to be funded later. It is available at most major or public university libraries, or write to Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402 for subscription information.
For almost any cost, investigate the possibility of in-kind contributions. These often cover the entire cost of a service, staff person, etc., but they also can be used creatively with other funding. There are several types of in-kind services:
Sometimes this type of resource is also called a "non-cash" contribution. Sometimes with foundation or government grants, "in-kind" services need to be documented carefully for audits, while the requirements for "non-cash" contributions are less rigid.
What if your proposal is not funded? In true problem-solving style, consider the options: resubmit a revised proposal, abandon the project or pursue other avenues that might solve the problem, though with fewer resources. If, on the other hand, you have the good fortune to be funded, you know that ahead possibly lie frustrations, crises, accountability for results and worries about refunding.
Should your coalition or corporation incorporate or file as a tax-exempt organization? Often, many or all the member organizations of a group already have this status. Is it necessary to apply as a coalition? There are three basic considerations. The first is the time, effort and some cost in going through the process of incorporation, and possibly some ongoing cost for fiscal reporting. The coalition needs to designate someone to act on its behalf in this matter. If the group is seeking a startup grant, an agency can be designated to do this and the grant can cover the costs. The advantage of incorporation is a clear identity is established. The disadvantage is the need to stick to much more formal operating rules and procedures.
The second point to consider is that in many coalition, several "lead organizations" emerge who have the strongest interest in furthering the group's goals. Usually, there may be the possibility of working out collaborative programs with one or more agencies. These groups could be designated to receive funds and administer them for a program carried out to further the aims of the coalition. This can avoid many complexities of establishing a separate framework.
Finally, the legal structure of incorporation makes it necessary to have a formal "funeral" if for some reason the coalition expires or disbands. This involves additional effort, sometimes some costs, and can create some negative publicity for member organizations if the media interprets disbanding as a sign of failure in solving a problem or situation.
The funding source can have a profound influence on the structure of the coalition. If the coalition is formed in response to a funding initiative, much of its direction has been established. To qualify for certain grant and foundation funds, it may be necessary for the coalition to meet special conditions of membership, board structure and staffing.
Funding is available from many sources, both public and private. Multiple sources may be preferred to avoid total obligation or association with a single source. But it often means more administrative work and complying with a variety of rules and regulations. Multiple funding can stabilize an operation and ensure its survival, but securing this mix requires staff time and a well developed coalition structure. Securing multiple funding usually requires a grant person on the staff, an established identity, documentation of organization history and data, credibility and leverage. Multiple funding to alleviate undue influence by a single funding source is most important for self-regulating and advocacy coalitions. It is least vital for information and resource sharing and for technical assistance coalitions.
Levels of funding influence structure because they rarely are sufficient to accomplish the desired objectives. Although there often is considerable donated time and resources, these cannot always make up for lack of physical facilities and sufficient staff. Despite their purpose, all coalitions can be more effective if they have a constant funding level and do not have to constantly search for program funds.

The Saskatchewan Roughriders 2013 Grey Cup title now has a ring to it.
The players received their glittery Grey Cup rings during a private gathering Friday in Regina. By Sunday, they were in Saskatoon, opening training camp with an eye toward trying to repeat in 2014.
"You earned that months ago and it's always unfortunate, actually, that you get it right before you're starting another camp," said Roughriders' receiver Chris Getzlaf. "At the same time, you can use that as motivation. You get that ring and it reminds you of what you accomplished. But you've got to flush that right away and say 'I want to get another one.' "
So do the rest of them, as defensive lineman Ricky Foley noted emphatically.
"The thing I was surprised with the other night was how much guys aren't resting on their laurels," he said after the team's Sunday morning practice session. "We're excited to have the opportunity to become legendary here. It's a different market, it's a special market. You win one, you're remembered forever. You win two in a row, I can't even imagine."
Here's a list of things to know about the Roughriders 2013 Grey Cup rings:
GM Brendan Taman said just shy of 140 were made up for a variety of people including players, staff and directors.
The ring, crafted in 10-karat white gold and crusted in diamonds and emeralds, weighs 78 grams.
The top of the ring includes 122 diamond stones, equalling the Roughriders' 103 years of existence and 19 Grey Cup appearances. Four emeralds represent their four Grey Cup titles.
One side of the ring includes an image of Mosaic Stadium, where the Roughriders won last year's Grey Cup. The score of that game and the team's slogan "All In" is also on that side.
The other side includes the recipients name, and images of the four Grey Cups the team has won.

24 Yrs Old, 150 Lbs, 5'5"/ 1 Child/ Much Needed TT & Some Lipo After 100 Lbs Weight Loss Columbus, GA
Dr. Cochran & his staff are wonderful! He is very professional & straight to the point so I would def recommend knowing what questions you want to ask him at pre-op. He called me today (the day after surgery) to check on me & it was funny bc I was still a little doped up on pain meds & didn't know who he was at first lol..
Decisions, Decisions - Columbus, GA
I scheduled my consult for 8:00 am and waited almost an hour to see him. When I got to speak to Dr. Cochran he was really cool, answered my questions and was very matter of fact which I liked. He briefly explained the surgery which scared me to death but I felt very comfortable talking to him... I just did not have peace about the sx. I couldn't commit right then. I'll pray about it and see about a later time.

Just met him for my consultation he said I was a excellent candidate . He was very fast and polite. He assured me within 90 days I'd see full results and that the upper back fat is different from abdominal fat. It may be tougher to get it completely flat but I'd see a big difference . He said I was not big enough for an. TT and that I actually was not over weight anywhere else. .

Windows 7
Cannot load roaming profile on Win 7 64 bit from SBS 2003
Let me start off saying that I am sorry with how long this post is, but I wanted to put in all the detail I can. That said, wondering if anyone can help me with this issue. We purchased some new Win 7 64bit laptops and introduced them into our SBS Server 2003 environment that had been running win xp laptops. The new laptops are HP ProBook 4535s' running win 7 64 bit. Every time I log into one of these new windows 7 laptops and log onto the network I get the message saying "You have been logged on with a temporary profile. You cannot access your files and files created in this profile will be deleted when you log off...."
Upon looking at the event viewer in the application side, I have 3 events of interest (listed in order of when they occurred, but all are within 20 sec. of logon):
1) Warning - User profile service - ID 1530
Windows detected your registry file is still in use by other applications or services. The file will be unloaded now. The applications or services that hold your registry file may not function properly afterwards.

2) Error - User Profile Service - ID 1521

3) Error - User Profile Service - ID 1511
Windows cannot find the local profile and is logging you on with a temporary profile. Changes you make to this profile will be lost when you log off.
Also, don't know if this is tied to it or not, I will sometimes get a box appearing stating: "SBS Client Setup OS Stub has stopped working." The problem signature is as follows:

After I close that window, another pops up stating "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000006). Click OK to close the application".
I know that Vista and win 7 uses profiles with the .v2 extension. We have one vista laptop that runs fine with a users profile. Is there something that I should be doing to link these up properly? Any help would be appreciated. Hoping that I just need to change some setting, but I have no clue.

Report: Matt Lauer a public target
'Today' co-host said to be 'miserable' over Ann Curry fan tirades
According to TMZ, "Today" show co-host Matt Lauer is "freaked out" and "miserable" over tirades screamed at him by New Yorkers on a daily basis.
Bing: More about Matt Lauer | 'Today'
One of the most popular: "You got Ann fired. Does that make you happy?"
Lauer went from good guy to bad overnight in June, after TMZ reported he had maneuvered to oust Ann Curry as his co-host as part of his last contract negotiation. (NBC execs have publicly denied any connection between Lauer and what they term Curry's "reassignment" to reporter for "NBC Nightly News With Brian Williams" and other NBC news programs. Curry was replaced by Savannah Guthrie on the "Today" show.)
Plus: Best and worst shows of 2012 | Memorable moments of 2012 | Year in reality TV
The TMZ report quotes unnamed NBC sources saying the public harassment is "driving (Lauer) crazy, he's so unhappy." The report adds: "Matt is telling people at NBC there have also been lots of sarcastic comments about his $25 million salary."
Do you think Matt is being unfairly abused, or is this karma?
"Today" airs weekdays at 7 a.m. ET/PT on NBC.
I can't believe he makes 25 million a year here i make 22,000.00 a year, maybe he should try to live on that, i would love to buy a house and can't afford it and i'm only looking at 80,000.00 home compared to what he must live in. and yes the way they brought savannah to the morning news and all of a sudden she's co-anchor, i don't even watch the show anymore, matt you all should be ashamed of the way ann was let go, it would have been nice had she just gone to another tv station. natallie she is no better, she acted like ann's friend some friends you all were, you should have helped her keep her job, i think a lot of people probably quit watching the today show i sure hope ratings go down
I quit the second Ann Curry was off camera. It was the shittiest let go of NBC television ever. She got no chance to really say good bye and there was no going away party of any kind, she was basically **** on! Matt has been a titty baby and is still acting like it. Ann Curry had more class, respect and love for the viewers than anyone on that show and Matt cares about his $$$$. Word of advice Matt, quit acting like a spoiled two year old throwing a tantrum on the floor...grow up!!!
P.S. I saw right through that fake pathetic excuse of a goodbye hug you gave Ann as she was leaving...that calls for the word SNAKE in my eyes!
I agree that they screwed up giving Ann the boot. I've been watching NBC since Katie was co-host. Matt is ok but he is responsible for Ann leaving then he deserves to be "miserable". I rarely watch them now....it's just not the same. Al is great though. Matt is full of himself but that's not why I don't tune in. BRING BACK ANN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sounds like more people would go back.
I think Matt has a horrible presence and a pathetic ego. I can't stand his interviewing abilities or lack thereof .... He scorns and scoffs at people he thinks are beneath him.
I turn the tv off when he is on.
His salary is ridiculous and I am stunned by it - no talent!
Perhaps he needs to reevaluate the situation. I hope he leaves the show.
AC had more class in her small finger.

Two days ago I wrote about how meetings are destroying offices across the world. But what are reasons to call a meeting?
1) Brainstorming. First of all, these meetings should never, ever be held within the office walls. Pick a restaurant, a park, a coffee shop, something other than the office. When you have meetings like this inside the office, all the mental blocks, creative rules and office politics get in the way of true outside-the-box thinking.
I tricked you. To me, that is the only truly good reason to have a meeting. There are tons of bad reasons: project update (unless your industry demands it), goal setting and project planning.
I know I'm being very general here because meetings are important in projects and the day-to-day operations of teams. I don't disagree with that. But we need to limit how often we have big meetings where the value is lost. Don't get caught up in the minutia of the office. Go do your own "meeting" at your local coffee shop today!

Landscaping was a major element of the design of the Route 202 Parkway. The roadway's location was selected to minimize impacts to existing woodlands and other sensitive environmental areas. Trees and other plantings were added along the roadway and shared used path to help the project blend into these existing areas. As part of the project's landscaping plans, berms, with plantings, were added to provide a visual barrier and a measure of sound reduction. The Parkway's at-grade intersections also will be landscaped using native plantings. Landscaping plans for each of the three sections can be viewed below. For easier viewing, each section has been divided into two files. These plans are subject to revision and changes as the Parkway is built and adjustments are made.

PUTRAJAYA, Oct 19 2011 (Bernama) -- Digital Malaysia will ramp up the contribution of high-value, knowledge-driven digital initiatives to 17 per cent or over RM294 billion of the gross national income (GNI) by 2020 from 12.5 per cent currently.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said the Multimedia Development Corporation (MDeC) was mandated to lead the Digital Transformation Programme which will be called Digital Malaysia.
MDeC's role is to transform the economy to a digital economy with emphasis on innovation, creativity and productivity.
"MDeC has assured me that implementation of the first projects will begin in the first quarter of next year," he told reporters after chairing the 23rd Implementation Council Meeting and 14th MSC Malaysia International Advisory Panel here Wednesday.
Najib said Digital Malaysia has set a target of RM75 billion in GNI contribution from the digital transformation initiatives by 2020.
Together with the RM93 billion from the existing Information and Communications Technology (ICT) initiatives and RM126 billion expected from ICT initiatives in the Economic Transformation Programme (ETP) and Government Transformation Programme (GTP), it will bring the GNI contribution from Digital Malaysia to RM294 billion by 2020, Najib said.
"Digital Malaysia is a cornerstone of the National Transformation Policy," the Prime Minister said.
"By supporting the creation of a cohesive and holistic approach to achieve a truly digital nation, Digital Malaysia completes the National Transformation Agenda together with the ETP, GTP, Politic Transformation Programme and Rural Transformation Programme," he added.
According to Najib, the digital transformation initiatives will enable Malaysia to raise the ICT contribution to GNI to 17 per cent by 2020 from 9.8 per cent currently.
It will also enable Malaysia to be in the top 20 in the digital economy ranking by 2020, from its current 36th spot out of 70 countries, and also in the top 10 in the IMD World Competitiveness Scoreboard, from its current rank of 16 out of 59 nations.
Among the initiatives under the digital transformation programme are ensuring an eco-system and culture to allow entrepreneuring skills and spirit to flourish and converting start-up companies to e-commerce and online businesses.
Other initiatives include injecting greater creativity and promotion of thinking skills throughout the education system, commercialising in stages 300 intellectual property opportunities developed by universities, and encouraging venture capital to promote the creative industry.

Oh, kids and their electronics (this is where some old person tells you they walked through 3 miles of snow to get to school). Digital Blue's U-Turn Camera has all the makings of a tween best in show product. The head of the camera swivels 180 degrees enabling self portraits or the ability to capture moments with their fave BFF. Once a photo has been captured it can be 'modded' via the 2.4-inch LCD screen with up to 12 fun-house effects like stretchy head, swirls, and squatty view. Total capacity of the camera is 80 photos with no memory card slot insight.
The U-Turn camera will hit retailers this Spring for $50.
