ROTH: Butterfly house has long-term vacancy
Q: I recently purchased a colorful butterfly house and am wondering if butterflies really use these houses or if they are just for show. I plan to hang it on a shepherd's hook near my butterfly bush that has had lots of butterflies in the past.
A: Butterfly "bedrooms" are generally simpler digs: the underside of a leaf, a branch of a tree or under a loose flap of bark.
And they're usually solo accommodations — each butterfly finds its own safe spot to spend the night or to wait out a rainstorm.
During monarch migration time in fall, though, a batch of traveling butterflies may settle together in a selected spot, usually in the canopy of a tree.
I've never seen a butterfly use a house. Then again, maybe I just didn't happen to catch them at the moment of their coming or going.
Q: This winter, when the leaves were down, I noticed what I'm sure was an oriole nest hanging from a tree along the street near my house. So I put out pieces of white string to attract them, like you said to do in your book. But no orioles have come. Why not?
A:Orioles are migrants, and yours simply aren't back yet. April and early May are the peak season for returning songbirds. Keep trying!
Q: I live in Selvin, Ind., between Lynnville and Dale. Last October, when we had that real warm spell, our lilac bushes here in our town bloomed, just like it was spring. The smell was great and each bush had a profusion of blooms. Will they bloom again this spring? I had never seen this happen, and sure hope it didn't get them all off course.
A: Sure hope your lilacs had time to form another round of buds after that untimely bloom. Or at least saved a few buds for spring.
By now you have your answer. Can't wait to hear what it is.
Q: Last week, I bought new plants to fill my big pots. When I went to start planting, I couldn't believe my eyes — my fancy sweet potato vines are sprouting again. I thought they're supposed to be annuals.
A: Those pretty chartreuse or purple vines live forever in climates where the tubers don't freeze in winter. (Yep, they make actual sweet potatoes under the ground, although not as big or tasty as the kind we grow in our veggie gardens.)
That's what's happening in your pots. This winter wasn't cold enough, or long enough, to turn those taters to mush.
Q: I've had bird feeders for years, but this spring I bought my first pair of binoculars and started taking walks to look at birds. I'm hooked. I never knew there were so many kinds of birds. Now I take my binoculars everywhere.
A: Another bird addict, great. And what perfect timing — almost a full week of great bird-related talks, walks and fun is coming up soon.
The Ohio Valley Birding Festival, April 21-22 and April 25-29, is jam-packed with guided tours, even a canoe trip, of more than a dozen great places in Indiana and Kentucky, plus all sorts of other activities.
Check out the website www.OhioValleyBird ingFestival.org for the full schedule. And better start doing those triceps exercises — the festival is right at the peak of bird migration and your binocular arm will get a real workout.

First Sale Doctrine
Locate a Local Intellectual Property Lawyer
Do I Keep my Copyrights Even if I Sell My Work?
The first sale exception assures the copyright owner that until her work is sold, she has the right to prohibit all others from distributing the work. However, once the work is sold, the new owner can treat the object as their own. This means that the new owner can sell the work to another without violating copyright laws.
Is the Work Treated Any Differently if It Is Possessed but not Owned?
The use of the exception is limited to persons who acquire ownership rather than mere possession of the work. For example, when you rent a movie, you possess it but don't own it (because you have to return it to the video store). So the doctrine of first sale does not apply to the situation of renting a movie, but it does apply to the video store that owns the movie.
Does the First Sale Exception Authorize further Copying of the Work?
No. The distribution right and the first sale exception apply merely to the copy that has been sold or otherwise transferred. The copyright owner is still protected against unauthorized copying of the work by the reproduction right.
Can Infringement Occur if a Third Party is Unaware that a First Sale Did Not Take Place?
Yes. An innocent third party may still be liable for infringement even if a first sale never took place.

Meratol Can Enhance Every
Aspect Of Your Weight Loss!
In Just ONE Supplement
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and losing weight is no longer an impossible mission due to an incredible food supplement called Meratol. More and more people find it difficult to face the challenges of a serious diet plan. It is harder and harder to stay committed to this purpose when there are so many other activities to perform each day.
The causes can be numerous: from stress to fatigue or lack of energy. Meratol, not only fights these symptoms, but it prevents them at the same time. It boosts metabolism and ameliorates attention and the capacity to stay focused on reaching the goals of any type of diet!
"I have been using Meratol for just over a month and the results have been fantastic – I have lost a stone, but feel like I haven't had to deprive myself from eating anything that I wanted to. It's especially useful for helping to cut down your portion sizes if you're like me and have little self control when it comes to your favourite foods, but after using meratol for a month I didn't even have to struggle to eat less as my stomach capacity seems to have reduced by itself"
Based on natural ingredients, this is a food supplement designed by specialists to complement a healthy, energetic lifestyle without any efforts or risks. A diet implies changes in one's way of living: from eating habits to social activities and so on, which can be quite energy-consuming.
Taken on a regular basis, these capsules increase the performance and the capacity of the body, also reducing the negative effects of tiredness and fatigue. It is proven that this supplement strengthens exercise endurance, so, working out regularly no longer represents a challenge.
Meratol's Amazing Long Term Benefits
In their attempts to lose weight, many people have the tendency to take breaks or give up at some point. They feel discouraged and defeated, ready to stop trying. In most cases, it is the lack of determination and commitment that leads to such attitudes, not to mention that today's society is characterized by speed, stress and dynamism. Given all these, staying on track with a diet plan proves to be quite a challenge.
With the help of Meratol, every person can feel great while trying to look great. It is been designed not only to boost metabolism but also to fight fatigue. It contains the following amazing components: chili (capsicum), caffeine, brown algae and prickly pear. Medical studies confirm the efficiency of these elements and the numerous health benefits they bring, and there are no unpleasant side effects associated with their consumption.
Why is this food supplement so appreciated and successful? Which are the reasons clients and specialists all over the world recommend this product? In order to understand the benefits of these slimming supplements better and to explain their success, it is important to learn more on what exactly Meratol does for an optimum functioning of the body:
- It boosts fat burning by accelerating metabolism;
- It enhances body tonus: physically and mentally;
- It fights the sensation of fatigue;
- It supports a healthy lifestyle;
- It eases diet management.
There are basically no side effects associated with the product. As it can be seen, the list underlines the main positive results associated with the administration of this complex of nutrients.
One bottle contains 60 capsules and can be easily found online, at authorized dealers. As for the prices, the premier package costs £97.99 and includes 4 bottles at the price of 3 and also free shipping. Placing an order takes a couple of minutes and, for any question, there is a customer support department ready to help.

What Makes Meratol Unique on the Market of Weight-Loss Supplements?
The capsules are based only on natural ingredients that have amazing benefits. All of these ingredients have been used since ancient times as natural remedies in treating various affections, so they are not a modern discovery.
The innovation stands in the amounts and the proportions used for creating this product. Over the years, many people confirmed the efficacy of this combination. Testimonials pinpoint the way in which this food supplement helped them in achieving their goal and losing weight, but also the measure in which it improved their state of mind.
The results are noticeable in a very short period of time: mentally and physically. This product has no side effects, so it can be safely taken on a daily basis as part of a healthy regime.
With this complex of natural ingredients, anyone can easily manage his or her diet, without worrying about unwanted consequences or health hazards. The product is 100% natural and safe.
While some supplements provide only a caloric input, Meratol does much more than that: it offers the confidence and the determination you need to lose weight and to live healthier!

and i'm going to end with possibly my favourite and most painful picture ever:
basically ziam are in love the end.

Jesus Christ, 2010 was a tough year when it comes to relationships. Let's just go down the list of celebrities. Those who have ended their (in many cases, long-term relationships) were Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy, Darren Aronofsky and Rachel Weisz, Patricia Arquette and Thomas Jane, David Arquette and Courteney Cox, Kate Winslet and Sam Mendes, and many, many more.
But that was NOTHING in comparison to the large amount of friends I had around my circle that broke up with each other. Was it some strange offshoot of the recession, people getting depressed because of their job prospects and becoming all sullen about it? Or was it simply that all of my friends are in that strange late-20s/early-30s range, when people end relationships like crazy?
Whatever it was, it happened. And if you're one of the guys who went through a breakup – like myself – then you know the only thing that works is going out there and quickly getting a new girlfriend.
Except that's the WORST idea.
The folks at AskMen.com have put together an extensive article why getting a new girlfriend immediately is a terrible, terrible idea. It is a fascinating read, full of nuggets like this:
Rushing into a new relationship?
Why are we so quick to rush into another relationship? After all, if you have been in a committed relationship that has lasted for a year or more, what are the odds that the first or second woman you meet after the breakup is the perfect match for you?
One major reason for men getting too quickly involved with a new girlfriend is that they are accustomed to having their emotional needs met by women. Most guys are not very good at connecting emotionally with other men. We may have buddies, but we usually are reluctant to bare our souls to them. Instead, when guys are hurting, we turn to our wives or girlfriends. But if these women have left us or, worse, are the source of our pain, in whom do we confide?
The whole thing is mighty valuable, especially if you're just getting out of a long-term relationship. Do yourself a favor and read it.

On The Fly: Midday Wrap
Stocks on Wall Street were mixed at midday, with the Nasdaq clinging to narrow gains and the Dow and S&P both down about 0.25%. Stocks began the session basically unchanged but turned mixed within minutes of the open. The volume has been light and the market has moved in a narrow range, continuing the type of pattern that was seen all of last week ahead of the holiday. ECONOMIC EVENTS: In the U.S., Markit's final manufacturing PMI for August dipped slightly from the flash print of 58.0 to 57.9, but that was up from July's 55.8 reading. ISM's manufacturing index for August climbed to 59.0 from 57.1 in July, beating expectations. Construction spending bounced back 1.8% in July, beating expectations for it to have risen 1.0% after declining in the prior month. In Asia, HSBC's final manufacturing PMI for China edged down to 50.2 from the preliminary 50.3 August reading, which was already down from the 51.7 report in July. The Chinese government's official purchasing managers index came in at 51.1 for August, which was down from its 51.7 reading in July. In Europe, the Eurozone's final manufacturing PMI for August was revised down to 50.7 from 51.8 in the preliminary reading. COMPANY NEWS: Apple (AAPL) was in the headlines following a celebrity photo hack involving several of its iCloud accounts. Despite the negative publicity from those events, the stock gained nearly 1% after noted Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster raised his price target on the tech giant's shares to $120 from $105, citing the upcoming launch of new products and services. Another firm, Cantor, said in its own note to investors that it believes that Apple will have its most exciting product launches "in many years" over the next few months... In M&A news, Dollar General (DG) rose almost 1% after increasing its all-cash proposal to buy Family Dollar (FDO) to $80.00 per share and also increasing the number of stores that it would be willing to agree to divest to 1,500 if ordered by the FTC. Shares of Family Dollar, which previously rejected Dollar General's prior proposal on the basis of antitrust regulatory concerns, traded above the new offer price, while Dollar Tree (DLTR), which currently has a merger agreement deal in place with Family Dollar, also gained 1.5%. MAJOR MOVERS: Among the notable gainers were two other companies involved in M&A, one which was a buyer and one which was bought. Norwegian Cruise Line (NCLH) advanced 12% after agreeing to acquire upscale peer Prestige Cruises for $3.03B, while Compuware (CPWR) rose over 12% after the company confirmed it agreed to be acquired by private equity investment firm Thoma Bravo in a transaction valued at approximately $2.5B. Among the noteworthy losers was Exelixis (EXEL), which plunged 53% after its phase 3 pivotal trial of cabozantinib in certain men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer did not meet its primary endpoint and the stock was downgraded by at least three Street research firms. Also lower was lease-to-own retailer CONN'S (CONN), which dropped 30% and was downgraded at Piper Jaffray after weakness in its credit operations prompted a Q2 earnings miss and caused the company to cut its fiscal year guidance. INDEXES: Near midday, the Dow was down 43.58, or 0.25%, to 17,054.87, the Nasdaq was up 2.97, or 0.06%, to 4,583.24, and the S&P 500 was down 4.83, or 0.24%, to 1,998.54.
Elliott announces support for acquisition of Compuware
Elliott Management Corporation entered into a support agreement to vote its shares in favor of the acquisition and issued a public statement regarding Compuware. "Today's announcement reflects the successful conclusion of a multi-year process to create value for Compuware shareholders," said Jesse Cohn, portfolio manager at Elliott Management Corporation, Compuware's largest shareholder. "This has been a significant endeavor -- selling assets, cutting costs, implementing the Covisint IPO, adding experienced executives to the Boardroom and taking numerous other steps to streamline and improve the Company. Credit goes to Bob Paul and his team for their tireless efforts in implementing these steps and also to the Board for its thoughtful and engaged process to reach this outcome. Finally, we congratulate Thoma Bravo for continuing its track record of recognizing significant value opportunities."
Compuware to be acquired by Thoma Bravo for $10.92 per share
Compuware and Thoma Bravo jointly announced that Compuware has entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by private equity investment firm Thoma Bravo in a transaction valued at approximately $2.5B. Under the terms of the agreement, pending shareholder approval, Compuware shareholders will receive an aggregate value of approximately $10.92 per share, representing a premium of approximately 17% to the company's stock price as of the close of trading on Friday, August 29. Thoma Bravo will pay a cash purchase price of $10.43 for each outstanding share of Compuware common stock, less the pro rata portion of the applicable corporate tax that will be owed in connection with the spin-off of Covisint, currently estimated at 18c per share based on the current market price of Covisint, for a net cash payment of approximately $10.25 per share. The parties have agreed that within 60 days following the date of the merger agreement, Compuware will effectuate the pro rata distribution to its shareholders of the remaining shares of Covisint owned by Compuware, resulting in a distribution of Covisint shares representing approximately 67c per share of Compuware common stock based on the closing price of Covisint on Friday, August 29. During the 60-day period, Compuware may seek a higher value alternative for its Covisint shares, in which case the proceeds, net of tax and certain charges, of such disposition will be paid to Compuware shareholders. The Compuware board unanimously approved the agreement and recommends that Compuware's shareholders approve the transaction. The transaction is expected to close by early 2015. Elliott Management, which owns approximately 9.5% of Compuware's common stock, has entered into an agreement with Thoma Bravo agreeing to vote its shares in favor of the transaction. There is no financing condition associated with the proposed acquisition. Compuware has agreed to immediately discontinue its quarterly cash dividend. At closing, Thoma Bravo will acquire 100% of Compuware's outstanding shares and Compuware will become a privately-held company.

This has been our go-to tailgate sandwich for 3 years now. My husband requests this often and I don't mind at all. I roast my own peppers, add pesto and tomato slices.
Turkey, Bacon, and Havarti Sandwich
Use precooked bacon to save time. Microwave according to package directions to crisp before you assemble the sandwich. Havarti is a Danish cheese that's semisoft with small irregular holes and a mild flavor; substitute Muenster if you can't find it. Strawberries, apple slices, or cantaloupe will pair nicely with these flavors.
Yield: Makes 4 servings

Eugène Heschung set up his first workshops in Alsace in 1934 and specialized from the very beginning in walking shoes. His motto: a good walking shoe should be comfortable, weather-resistant and indestructible. The double stitching is done by machine on the traditional model of hand-welt stitching – in this way the welt is pressed outwards, before the sole is put on, to give the shoe its characteristic appearance.
With its typical top lacing, this is a classic walking shoe, made for business, so to speak! It has a waterproof rubber sole (its tread has (unusually) been
through-stitched). The shoe gets its name from the Prussian General Blücher, who had boots of this type made for his soldiers.

Subsidy Rental and Cooperative Developments
Policy Statement
DND will provide loans to developers of affordable rental projects to assist with costs that are in excess of construction, permanent, and/or other subsidy financing and equity resources. The amount of funds invested in a rental or cooperative housing project will always reflect the minimum amount of public subsidy necessary to achieve the maximum public benefit.
The amount of each request should be limited to the least amount of public funds necessary to make the project feasible, should be restricted to eligible costs directly related to the housing development project, and must comply with cost and underwriting standards currently accepted as industry standards by all other lenders involved in the project.
Amount: The amount of funding will be limited to the gap between the amount of debt supportable by the anticipated net operating income from the operations of the project plus any other anticipated capital or equity contributions and the approved total development cost of the project. Generally, per unit commitments will not exceed $50,000 per unit.
Term: The term of the assistance will be for a minimum period of thirty (30) years.
Interest Rate: The interest rate charged will depend upon the needs of the project given the terms of the other funding sources and the ability of the project to support DND debt.
Repayment Terms: The conditions for payment will always be based on the needs of the particular funding request.
- Payments of principal and/or interest during the construction and rent-up period will be deferred to minimize development costs.
- DND will require one of the three following payment options during the operational phase of the project:
- fixed monthly payments;
- cash flow payments, with a minimum payment of 50% of all cash flow payable to public subordinate debt, such as DND and DHCD, after deducting normal and customary operating expenses and senior debt service payments1; or
- fully deferred payment of principal and interest until loan maturity. In all cases, all outstanding principal and interest will be due and payable at loan maturity.

Narrow your search
CNET Top 5
If you just want a decent compact megazoom, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS5 is one of the better options thanks to a well-rounded feature set and very good photo quality at lower ISOs.
It's been a while since Panasonic updated its enthusiast compact line, and it comes back with a vengeance for the LX100
The small but notable change of swapping a built-in flash for an EVF is welcome, but the price...
Featuring a large 1-inch sensor and 16x zoom lens (the longest in its class), this compact might be all the camera you need.
One more reason to close your curtains, the 16-megapixel FZ70 features an f2.8-5.9 20-1200mm lens and rock-solid image stabilization to back it up.
If you're searching for a long-zoom camera that falls in between a point-and-shoot and digital SLR experience, look no further than the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ200.
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ47 is a very good megazoom for the money, but if you want more control over results--especially in low light--you'll want to step up to the Lumix FZ150.
Poor low-light performance hinders the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ5's useful features.
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF3 offers the type of performance and photo quality in a relatively small design many point-and-shoot graduates will like.
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ40 is a solid megazoom, but its low-light photos need extra attention.

It all started when I was a sophomore in high school. My Girl Scout troop earned money for years to save up towards a trip to Europe. That first day in Frankfurt, Germany, I was handed a map. I know it's crazy, but my 16 year old, funky-dressed, absent-minded, hippie self fell in love with a map. It was challenging to read, it was well designed, it was the first functional art I think I ever really noticed. After that, I spent a fair amount of time sketching maps.

This bill seems too extreme. I wonder how they would really enforce this though. There's already a hefty fine for pirating movies and it's still fairly commonplace. They either can't or aren't willing to enforce that so why should we believe they would enforce this? I just hope it doesn't pass. America the land of freedom has been losing too many of those freedoms over the years.

My friends and family will all tell you that I'm not big on sandwiches; however, I do like grilled sandwiches. So in honor of National Grilled Cheese month, I'm sharing a Green Chile Grilled Cheese or more appropriately called Green Chile Turkey Enchiladas Grilled Cheese Sandwich, but that name is just a little too long. There's also a similar sandwich called Albuquerque Turkey – so lots of inspiration for this sandwich!
If you like green chile chicken or turkey enchiladas, then you'll love this sandwich! It's made with New Mexico roasted and chopped green chile, avocado, turkey, and of course – cheese. How can you not love that?

July 15: Day 17
Monday night, I plied. It went pretty well, except that my Scotch tension kept slipping. This has come up a couple of times.
I oiled everything and checked over the wheel. It kept happening. Finally, I was on the phone with my sister, talking about it, and I saw that the little screw that holds the tensioning knob was loose. I tightened it with my thumbnail. Voila! No more trouble.
July 16: Day 18
This morning, I opened up a bag of 8 oz. of BFL from The Woolery. It's top, so I'm spinning it short draw. So far, it's going very well!
I really like it. It's fairly thin and short draw takes longer than long draw, so I will probably be spinning this for a good long while. The top is very open and easy to spin, with no major lumps or weird spots (so far).

Chastened by the Democratic Senate loss in Massachusetts, President Barack Obama and congressional allies signaled Wednesday they will try to scale back his sweeping health care overhaul in an effort to at least keep parts of it alive.
A simpler, less ambitious bill emerged as an alternative only hours after the loss of the party's crucial 60th Senate seat forced the Democrats to slow their all-out drive to pass Obama's signature legislation and reconsider all options.
No decisions have been made, lawmakers said, but they laid out a new approach that could still include these provisions: limiting the ability of insurance companies to deny coverage to people with medical problems, allowing young adults to stay on their parents' policies, helping small businesses and low-income people pay premiums and changing Medicare to encourage payment for quality care instead of sheer volume of services.
Obama urged lawmakers not to try to jam a bill through, but scale the proposal down to what he called "those elements of the package that people agree on."
"We know that we need insurance reform, that the health insurance companies are taking advantage of people," the president said in an interview with ABC News. "We know that we have to have some form of cost containment because if we don't then our budgets are going to blow up. And we know that small businesses are going to need help."
Another option, which called for the House to try to quickly pass the Senate version of the broader bill — bypassing the Senate problem created by the loss of the Massachusetts seat to Republican Scott Brown — appeared to be losing favor.
"That's a bitter pill for the House to swallow," said the No. 2 Senate Democrat, Dick Durbin of Illinois.

Bait -n- switch..
Anyone else insulted ?
12 St Pauli's says the Dem orchestra had this tune in mind long ago. Now, if the Reps drag tootsies Dem's will be able to deflect their incompetence back at the party of no leading up to the next round of election rigging….
It's amazing how entrenched, arrogant pols don't hear the will of the people until they are chastised at the polls.
Now, scrambling to save their bacon in November they are willing to back off and throw the people some scraps.
I still don't trust them, not now, not ever.
There's an old saying…"figures don't lie, but liars figure".
My thoughts are that even if they make changes to the bill, it's still a piece of garbage legislation from the getgo and needs to be dumped and reworked from scratch with the main focus being a populist friendly bill and to hell with them giving handouts to the insurance industry.
One thing for sure they need to get the price of healthcare way down from the premiums they've proposed and to dump penalties and punitive action against those that don't want insurance.
Medicare is already in place. If they could shut down the alleged 48 billion per annum in pilferage of the fund and simply offer Medicare to all citizens from age 18 to the grave with the premium for parts A&B taken from their paychecks then they'd have a simple platform upon which to launch an ever-improving system of coverage for all including seniors. Also the cost of healthcare would be spread across the population. Those with equal or better coverage than what the government plan offers can simply opt out as one can with Medicare when reaching age 65. It's not mandatory. To opt out though one must show proof of coverage just as one is expected to show proof of auto insurance to enforcement authorities when stopped for a traffic infraction. If you drop the private coverage then the government would be alerted to such and you'd be put on alert that your employer will start deducting Medicare premiums from your paycheck. This would prevent freeriders; ie, freeloaders from burdening the system as a function of their irresponsibility when it comes to their medical needs.

For the first time in years I'm seriously tempted to turn on the television news. After the other-worldly hype and the doe-eyed worship of the election, the "One" doesn't look so god-like any more.
But alas, I'll make do with the pictures and the thousand words they conjure.
"One thing for sure they need to get the price of healthcare way down from the premiums they've proposed and to dump penalties and punitive action against those that don't want insurance."
It is true that some don't want health care insurance. They are usually younger and "immortal". But most people that can afford health care insurance will purchase it. Those that cannot afford it obviously cannot purchase it. There are many that could afford it if the government kicks in a portion of the premium, but there will still be millions that cannot afford it even with a taxpayer subsidy. And they want to fine them for not purchasing a product. Since when is it a crime to not spend money that one does not have? Bastards. Idiots. What are they thinking? Hell what are they drinking and smoking? Assholes.
"simply offer Medicare to all citizens from age 18 to the grave with the premium for parts A&B taken from their paychecks then they'd have a simple platform upon which to launch an ever-improving system of coverage for all including seniors. Also the cost of healthcare would be spread across the population."
But, but… Carl… that's… ohmygod… that's… SOCIALISM!!!!!! OH MY GOD, NO! NOT SOCIALISM, not here in AMERICA!!!!
"We know that we have to have some form of cost containment because if we don't then our budgets are going to blow up. And we know that small businesses are going to need help."
Yes, the insurance companies are a huge part of the problem, but so are the damned greedy doctors. Why should it cost $324.00 to have one tooth pulled? Yeah, yeah, the dentist had to pay for his education and he has overhead to pay in office rental and office staff, yada yada yada. Nevertheless, $324 to pull a tooth? Come on!! The doctors don't have to have three houses and four Mercedes Benz cars. Screw them too.
I know Kent, but it seems the unwashed masses are all screaming for 'their governent' to do something and my idea is simply to get it rolling with no new beauracracy being created. Keep it simple and hopefully effective to both administer and deliver the goods so to speak.
This two thousand plus page healthcare bill seems to me as being the equivalent of the Patriot Act of Healthcare and the agency that will support this shakedown the equivalent of Homeland Security & TSA combined. It's going to cost a fortune to just operate this behemoth that will end up just like Medicare with huge sums of waste and fraud being exposed annually.
Medicare is already in place although current waste and fraud needs to be cleaned up bigtime. Four years ago it was disclosed that 11 billion had been pilfered or was unaccounted for and this past year it's up to 48 billion!? This is a serious amount of money. So to create a new healthcare plan being operated by more faceless bureaucrats; all of them with great medical benefits, not the one's they are administering; then we best keep in place what we have and clean it up; ie, Medicare.
Maybe we need to go the route of the Chinese where most crimes against the state are met with summary execution in a public arena. Visualize a thousand Medicare fraudsters of all stripes including physicians are marched out into a stadium and given a summary bullet to the base of the brain with the bill for the round sent to their families. /: | Possibly that would clean up fraud against the U.S. taxpayer in short order. The same should go for all fraudsters in my opinion because they are like a cancer eating up the national body.
We entrust these criminally disposed scavengers with our money and lives and they betray us daily, putting our nation and citizens at hazard, both financially and physically.

While this morning's UPS airbus A-300 cargo plane crash is an unusual and tragic occurrence, it's not the first time a plane like this has gone down.
In our investigation, we've learned this particular Airbus A-300, tail number 155UP has had a dozen maintenance issues in the past -- three incidents were declared an emergency, according to the FAA.
The most recent one was in May of last year.
That plane that crashed today is one of 53 airbus A-300 planes that UPS operates.
It was put into service in 2003.
Since 1981, according to the FAA, there have been 60 crashes involving an airbus A-300, known as a twin-engine wide-body jet aircraft. Seventeen of them have been overseas, the rest have been here in the US and Puerto Rico. Five of these crashes were fatal.
The last crash in the US was American Airlines flight 587 on Nov. 12, 2001. It crashed shortly after take-off from JFK in Belle Harbor, NY, killing all 265 people on board and five people on the ground.
The National Transportation Safety Board said the cause of that crash was the airplane's vertical stabilizer, which keeps the plane flying straight and the rudder, which steers the plane, separated in flight.
The engines separated as well.The plane can carry up to 266 passengers, but when used as a cargo plane -- that was the case for today's flight -- it can hold up to 120,000 lbs of cargo according to UPS.
Local US Postal officials say flight 1354 was carrying about 1,500 pounds of regular US Mail. They understand the mail was being held in a strong aluminum container and believe most of it, if not all of it, is intact and they should be able to recover it. We should also note UPS was fined $4 million earlier this year by the FAA, which alleged UPS failed to follow FAA-approved procedures for making structural repairs to four aircraft, two DC- and two MD-11 planes.
That fine did not include the Airbus A-300.

The Debian 2.0 Distribution
I've been a long time devotee of Red Hat Linux, but the Debian distribution may have won me over. I recently ordered and installed the ``Hamm'' release of Debian (pronounced like ``Deb'' from Debby and ``Ian'' from the boy's name) on a number of my machines, including this laptop I'm running. This distribution is named after Debbie and Ian Murdoch, the founders of the project. I'll share some of my findings about this unusually solid Linux distribution.
I've noticed several errors other journalists have made in referring to Debian when comparing it to other distributions. One article I read, for example, said there was no packaging system comparable to RPM, Red Hat's package management system. Well, Debian has an extremely solid package management system called ``dpkg.'' It tracks dependencies, builds and installs sources and binary packages from sources just as easily as RPM, if not easier in some respects.
Further, I've read other articles that give the impression Debian is a ``hacker's distribution'' and is less polished than either Red Hat or Caldera. Well, I'm not sure what they mean, because I think Debian excels in both technical robustness as well as aestheticly pleasing desktops and interfaces.
One thing I've noticed about Red Hat, for example, was that many of their packages leave it up to the user to configure and tweak the package to their taste. However, many new users don't know how to connect to the Internet let alone configure Sendmail as a mail gateway. The RH installations of the FVWM window manager installations left a lot to be desired, I felt, while Debian's refined configuration of the desktop interface surprised me. Though it didn't look as polished as Caldera's default ``Looking Glass'' desktop, it was more functional and ready to use in my view.
Debian takes the approach of using setup scripts that ask you questions during the install process of each package. If the installation detects a previous configuration file, it asks you if you want to keep the old one, wait to decide, or use the developers configuration files. RHL just copies the original to a filename.orig backup and overwrites you existing configuration by default. Additionally, Debian doesn't install as many packages by default as RHL does. So, you don't have as many security holes that stem from turning off services that you don't use with a Red Hat system. The Debian installation checks that the major services are installed and configured, but extra services, like NIS, INND, SMB, NFS, and so forth, are not installed unless you explicitly request for them to be. Consequently, you don't have to go back and figure out now to close up the holes they would leave.
Dselect and Deity
Well, I guess it's a bone to pick. Debian uses a program called ``dselect'' as a front end, or a user-interface, to dpkg, their package management system. This is perhaps the most difficult part about using Debian. I think it's the single biggest drawback for new users choosing Red Hat over Debian.
Dselect is a text oriented interface. In the beginning when there were relatively few Debian packages (with the *.deb suffix, like RPMs which have the *.rpm suffix), it made sense to use the particular line oriented interface that dselect uses. But now, with so many many *.deb packages that go into a single installation, dselect is a pain in the buttox to use. Once you get used to it, it's tolerable. Barely. But for a newbie trying to select packages through such a cumbersome tool is very trying. I haven't tried apt yet, which is another package management interface to dpkg with a more automated approach. It's the current version of what will become Deity. It looks very promising.
Deity is truly phenominal looking. I think this product will blow away competing package management front ends. It looks awesome. I saw some screenshots somewhere, but I just spent 30 minutes looking, and I couldn't find them again. Trust me; it's great!
Bo, Hamm, Slink?
What about those crazy distribution names, huh? Bruce Perens, who was until recently the leader of SPI (Software in the Public Interest), the non-profit corporation that handles all of Debian's assets, works at Pixar, the graphics company who did the animation for ``Toy Story.'' This Disney blockbuster, was very popular, and Bruce and the rest of Pixar were understandably proud. You'll notice that all the distribution release code names are from characters in that movie.
Debian's Mission.
Basically, Debian is the non-commercial Linux distribution. It's free software for the purist, I guess you could say. The standard distribution doesn't include any software that isn't ``free'' in the sense of being open source and copylefted. You won't find normal ``freeware'' licensed software like XV or Pine. Those are available for download in *.deb's though, but you'll find them in the ``non-free'' directory of the ftp site. They'll work just fine along side totally free software, but the Debian philosophy tends to follow Richard Stallman's personal philosophy how software should be all free and open. It's ``environmentally correct'' software.
Debian software is also ``free'' in the purest sense of the word: see www.debian.org/intro/free. You can normally acquire a Debian Linux distribution for around $5 per CD-ROM. You get as much or more on it as you would from any commercial Linux CD. Debian is a non-profit organization. You should check out the Debian Social Contract at www.debian.org/social_contract.
The Debian distribution is probably the closest Linux distribution to the GNU organization and the Free Software Foundation. In fact, the official distribution name is ``Debian GNU Linux.'' Richard Stallman maintains that all Linux is GNU Linux because Linux is just the kernel, while GNU software comprises most of the rest of any Linux distribution. He's got a point.
What Floored Me.
Normally when you upgrade your Linux distribution you can expect a few bumps and jiggles along the way, to say the least. Especially when you severely customize your computer and environment. Much of that customization and personal preference can get mangled during an upgrade process. I had a very pleasant experience with Debian.
Debian and Red Hat are the only two distributions that offer GNU C libraries standard in their distributions. Glibc is a rewrite of the standard C libraries called ``libc5,'' while the new libraries are sometimes called ``libc6.'' This upgrade constituted a major upgrade for people who made it. Red Hat released RHL 5.0 just a little too early, it turned out, and the upgrade process from RHL 4.2 to 5.0 was rather painful for many people who made the jump in the beginning. Several system components were found to be incompatible at large, and RHL took a black eye for this.
Debian waited a little longer, learning from RH's ``mistakes,'' and tested and retested a few months longer than Red Hat did before they released a glibc upgrade for their distribution. As a consequence, the upgrade script that I ran on my Bo (libc5-based) system was almost entirely painless in upgrading my system to the new libraries.
There was a definite sequence in which packages had to be removed and upgraded so as to allow a normal distribution upgrade to take place. Once deviation to this system, and you could wind up with a completely unusable computer that you would be faced with reinstalling from scratch. But one of the three methods I chose worked great. There were actually three methods I could have chosen to upgrade, and I chose one called a ``autoup.sh'' script. Worked mostly like a champ.
There was one package status file in
/var/lib/dpkg/methods/ftp/debian somewhere that got
munged, and I had to take a leap of faith and delete it and rename
another file to the deleted files old name. Miraculously, this worked
like a champ. Also, I had a misconfigured package on my system that
stopped the upgrade script. Once I figured out what the problem was,
I removed the package by hand (
dpkg -r packagename), and
tried again. I got all the way to the munged file error above, and
then after fixing that, I rebooted and easily proceeded to a normal
installation. It was less painful than Red Hat upgrades I've done.
You can probably tell I'm pretty excited about finding Debian GNU/Linux. I'll still use Red Hat on at least one of my boxes I think, because I'm still a long-time fan of theirs. But I'm really enamored of Debian. Please check them out at www.debian.org.

PHAME Academy - the Portland region's acclaimed fine and performing arts academy for young and older adults with developmental disabilities - announced today the selection of "Bye Bye Birdie" as its 2013 fully staged musical production, the 34th production in PHAME's 28-year history. The production - starring a cast of inspiring PHAME student performers, with stage direction by Jessica Dart and musical direction by Matthew Gailey - will run June 22-23 at Mt. Hood Community College mainstage theatre in Gresham, Oregon.
The Tony-award winning musical "Bye Bye Birdie" is one of the most tuneful, feel-good musical comedies of all time. A satirical take on American life in the 1950's, "Birdie" is filled with throw-back references and plenty of irreverence for oversize rock'n'roll personalities, the power of the almighty television, and the quirks of the 1950's-era American family itself. "Birdie"'s Tony-winning score by Charles Strouse and Lee Adams includes gems like "One Boy," "A Lot of Livin' to Do," "Kids" and the evergreen favorite "Put on a Happy Face."
Tickets to PHAME's "Bye Bye Birdie" are $25-$31 for Gold Circle seats, and $15-$20 for General Admission, and are on sale as of February 4, 2013 - click here to purchase your tickets once they're on sale. PHAME's "Bye Bye Birdie" is produced with permission of Tams-Witmark Music Library.
