Today's honor caps a series of awards for ProPublica this year, including two George Polk Awards, one for radio (with NPR) for our series on brain injuries to our troops, another for television (with Frontline) for our reporting on police violence in New Orleans after Katrina; a National Magazine Award finalist nod for our story on dialysis facilities; the American Society of News Editors Batten Medal for sustained reporting on the New Orleans police story; two Investigative Reporters and Editors Awards, one for the dialysis story and accompanying database, the other for innovation for our "Dollars for Docs" series; and two awards from the Society for News Design for our news applications.
Paul Steiger, Editor in Chief, ProPublica, writing today about the non-profit's Pulitzer win for National Reporting. ProPublica reporters Jesse Eisinger and Jake Bernstein won the award for a series on Wall Street bankers who enriched (or tried to) themselves at the expense of their clients and — in some cases — their firms.
This is the first time a digital only series has won the Pulitzer.
Congratulations to an exceptional organization for showing what a non-profit can do in journalism.

Monday's MBTA schedule for MLK Day
The MBTA will be running subway, buses and other modes of transportation on an adjusted schedule on Monday for Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
All subway lines will be running on a Saturday schedule, the MBTA said.
Bus routes and the Silver Line will also operate on a Saturday schedule. That means certain bus routes, including the CT1, CT2 and CT3, will not be running. Other bus routes not running on Monday include: 4, 19, 52, 67, 68, 79, 84, 85, 114, 121, 131, 170, 217, 221, 245, 424, 424W, 428, 434, 439, 448, 449, 451, 456, 459, 502, 503, 505, 554, 556 and 558.
The RIDE will also be operating on a Saturday schedule.
However, the commuter boat and Commuter Rail will be running on regular weekday schedules.

For much of the season, Texas Tech never had a defined "go-to pitcher."
Instead, it relied on matchups, coach Tim Tadlock's discretion and the hot hand.
Nine pitchers started for the Red Raiders and only one of those never pitched in relief — Dylan Dusek.
For most of the season, it worked as the staff combined for a 3.27 ERA.
In Coral Gables, though, it really all came together.
In four games, Texas Tech only allowed four runs, shutting down the Columbia and Miami offenses.
Pitching duel
Outfielder Adam Kirsch doesn't know much about College of Charleston's pitching.
And he wants to keep it that way.
"We take it pitch by pitch and we are going to continue to do that."
Texas Tech outscored teams in the Miami Regional 11-4 in four games. College of Charleston had a 13-7 advantage in its three games against Florida.
The Cougars also feature two starters with ERAs below 3.00, Taylor Clarke (2.62) and Bailey Ober (1.55). Tech's Dylan Dusek, who was the MVP of the Miami region, sports a 2.08 ERA.
From underdog to favorite
Compiled by Nicholas Talbot
Coming off its first NCAA regional tournament championship in its program's history, Texas Tech received a pair of No. 10 national rankings this week — its first top-10 ranking since 1998.
Texas Tech (43-19) was ranked No. 10 by both Collegiate Baseball and the National Collegiate Baseball Writers' Association.
Texas Tech hosts the College of Charleston (44-17) this weekend in the NCAA Super Regional at Dan Law Field at Rip Griffin Park. The winner of this weekend's matchup advances to the NCAA College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska.
College baseball is abuzz this week with talk of the Lubbock Super Regional, the College of Charleston vs. Texas Tech for a College World Series trip that would be the first for either program.
But retro rock fan and Charleston baseball coach Monte Lee knows Lubbock is known for something other than Red Raiders and high cotton.
"Oh, yeah, Buddy Holly," the 37-year-old College of Charleston coach said. "He was born there. I saw 'The Buddy Holly Story' with Gary Busey, so I know a lot about Buddy Holly."
Favorite song?
"'Peggy Sue,'" Lee said.
"The Pitch" was created not in a laboratory, but on a pitcher's mound during Monterey High batting practice.
Jared Robinson positioned his fingers apart on opposite seams, but it just did not feel right. So he changed the grip.
Still not comfortable.
Finally, Robinson, now a junior righthander for the University of Houston, found just the right mix that combines elements of a knuckleball, split-finger fastball and changeup.
Only one problem.

Ukrainian novelist Kurkov backs 'school for revolution' protests
Ukrainian novelist Andrey Kurkov (L) reads chapters from his book 'Last love of the President', during his meeting with readers at one of Kiev's bookshops, on March 31, 2004
The 52-year-old is one of the most-read authors of the former Soviet Union, with his satirical Russian-language novels, notably "Death and the Penguin," translated into many languages.
He said he regularly goes to Independence Square, known as the Maidan, which protesters have occupied since Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych in November scrapped a rapprochement with the European Union under pressure from Russia.
"The Maidan is a school for revolution. There are a lot of crazy people and colourful characters here, but there are also plenty of people who are consolidating their activism," he said.
Kurkov was also a firm supporter of the 2004 Orange Revolution, which took place on the Maidan. The protest led to a rerun of rigged polls claimed by Yanukovych, bringing pro-Western opposition leaders to power.
The writer's involvement in the Orange Revolution prompted a dramatic fall in the print runs of his books in Russia.
Kurkov, who has a British wife and three children, is known for his darkly comic style.
The hero of his novel, "Death and the Penguin," writes obituaries in advance for a local newspaper, only to find his subjects rapidly meeting premature ends.
Kurkov was on the jury of the 2009 Man Booker International Prize which picked Canadian short story author Alice Munro.
In 2010, when President Viktor Yanukovych came to power amid disillusionment with the squabbling Orange Revolution leaders, Kurkov said that in his view, one "can only know one Maidan in a lifetime."
But he said he has now completely changed his mind, and believes there could be a "third Maidan, then a fourth and so on."
This form of protest "is now rooted in the consciousness of the people," he said.
Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians have taken to the street in the latest protests, particularly after riot police violently dispersed activists, in what Kurkov called a "social explosion,"
The protests have "shown that half the country will never agree to live according to (the authorities') principles," he said.
Kurkov was deeply critical of the Ukrainian leadership, saying: "the behaviour of Viktor Yanukovych and his allies is absolutely not in line with the times."
"No Ukrainian politician has gathered so much hatred in the country or been so little respected abroad," he said of Yanukovych.
For Yanukovych, receiving a $15 billion bail-out from Russia as a reward for scrapping the EU deal was a "very serious psychological defeat," he said.
"From now on he is dependent on the mood" of Russian President Vladimir Putin, the writer said.
Yanukovych has misjudged the strength of the pro-European mood in Ukraine, where civil society "has developed much more quickly than in Russia," Kurkov said.
"Western Ukraine, on the border of Europe, has become virtually European, while eastern Ukraine is close to Russia but has ceased to be part of Russia."
"It is only in Crimea (which formally became part of Soviet Ukraine in 1954) that the pro-Russian mood is still strong. In the Donbass (the Russian-speaking industrial region that is Yanukovych's heartland), no one wants to unite with Russia," he said.
As for Yanukovych himself, he has "nothing in common with the European mindset."

Martini in Cambridge/Boston?
Where can I get a decent and hopefully not overpriced martini in Cambridge (or, lacking that, the Boston area)? I'm not talking about any of the variants out there (appletini, chocolate, etc.) - I mean the traditional deal, gin and vermouth...
re: Falcon 64
On first look, Oak Room would seem to fall into the overpriced category. Then, when the martini is delivered and poured out of a carafe that is then placed into a small individual ice bucket, you realize that you're basically getting two martinis for the price of one. When your first is gone, the second is waiting chilled.
Besides, even if you're a Bostonian, I think that a martini at the Oak Room is a requirement - at least once. Beware - it can fill up quickly on weekend nights.
For classic martinis or more creative cocktails, I'd go to Eastern Standard Kitchen in Kenmore or Green Street in Central Square.
At Oak Room in Boston, you'll get a classic martini, and lots of it, but the surroundings are bar snacks are great too. ESK or Deep Ellum could also oblige.
In Cambridge, I agree that Green Street in Central Sq would be your top choice and meet your expectations nicely. West Side Lounge does a good job too, and maybe the B-Side Lounge.
for not overpriced you should definitely check out silvertones, by the park street stop. great comfort good and solid bartending.
In Boston, the Oak Room. In Cambridge, B-Side, bar @ Chez Henri, bar @ Rialto, bar @ Gargoyles (not Cambridge per se, but within stumbling distance).
In Cambridge my top pick would certainly be Green St., they also probably have the best prices but their glasses are only 7oz, I think. A rung below, but still quite good, would be Rialto and Chez Henri. In Somerville there's the Independent, and in Boston I would go to No. 9, Eastern Standard, or Deep Ellum.
The three in Boston, to compete with the New York big boys, are Green St., No. 9 and Eastern Standard, in no particular order. Green St.'s the cheapest (a gin martini I guess would be about 7 or 8 bucks), at No 9 or ES they'll be between 10 and 12 or so.
re: sailormouth
moved below ...
re: sailormouth
Gargoyles sometimes serves their martinis in a small and then a "family values" size. I would more appropriately call it the "Hey, want some warm booze?" size. A smaller martini is more likely to be one that stays cold til the end. Green Street prices appropriately, and serves high quality cocktails. Deep Ellum also seems to have smallish glasses too.
Just because soda comes in the "big gulp" size doesn't mean that gin should too!
re: Bluebell
The smaller glasses are great so they still chilled, but they're also good for trying new things before you get completely smashed. I always feel better leaving a bar after four or five instead of two or three.
If we are talking martini for the martini's sake ... *just* the martini … not the cost, not the food, not the scene ... I can help.
Firstly, a martini - a real martini - must be consumed in Boston, not in Cambridge. If I need to elaborate I am in the wrong discussion.
The second best martini in Boston is, in fact, at the Oak Room.
The best martini in Boston, and I know we like to think these things are subjective but this is simply true, is at Grill 23.
My order: Bombay Sapphire, some vermouth (no/too little vermouth a common mistake), olives, up.
Note: they are sizable. No driving home.
re: Carty
I do believe you are correct sir. My old friend Simon used to like the martini at Grill 23 and believe me this Englishman had been around enough to know. He also admired the one at the Lenox Hotel -- City Bar, I believe?
One I can tell you to avoid (this almost goes without saying) is at Miracle Of Science in Cambridge. Hanging out at that bar with a friend who craved a martini on a cold evening we were served one of the worst drinks I've ever had. Good (?) thing is the bartender knew it too and cheerfully took it off the tab.
re: Carty
"If we are talking martini for the martini's sake ... *just* the martini … not the cost, not the food, not the scene" ...then I'm not sure what Boston consumption has to do with it. I spent years tending at a classy old school bar, and I make just as good a martini in my Somerville kitchen as I ever did there. I'm just saying.
re: franksnbeans
It's true. It's not like there aren't recipes for these things. The presentation matters, though - glass size, crushed ice still clinging to the outside of the glass, etc. And one shouldn't have to request vermouth. I feel like a lot of places don't bother with it anymore. (Which is more the customers' fault over time.)
I liked a Manhattan I had at Union on Washington St. back in Feb. Anyone had a martini there? What did you think?
In case you haven't seen—Martini's in NYC:
I think the one closest to fulfilling the "not overpriced" requirement in Cambridge would be the B-Side Lounge.
Back in Boston, I don't know how the prices are at Deep Ellum, but given their location, they may fit into the "quality at a lower price" spectrum as well. I know some of their bartenders from previous gigs, and they would make a martini properly.
And, Carty... eh, nevermind.
Speaking of martinis, does anyone know where I can purchase good cocktail olives with good brine for my dirty martinis? I would love a place walking distance from the financial district!

What they say about us
In the last four years, ORA has gained many faithful customers. Thanks to our actions, these have become real partners.
They loved working with ORA and they speak out:
We have had certain difficulties to hire free lance sales agents. After months of unsuccessful search we decided to give the mission to ORA. By means of their competence and professionalism, we managed to fulfill our recruitment objectives and to find carefully selected sales profiles. Today, a strong business relation prevails between JCDecaux and ORA.
Eric Deloge, HR Manager at JCDecaux.
EMEA cooperation : "Our collaboration with ORA has developed into a true partnership, reflecting his high-value expertise that is unique, his flexibility, and his very much appreciated inter-personal and communication skills. Our standards and expectations in recruitment at Albemarle are extremely high, and his help is truly key in helping us to deliver upon those challenging and ever-changing demands."
Service Category: Business Consultant
Year first hired: 2007 (hired more than once)
Top Qualities: Personable, Expert, High Integrity
Raffaella, Albemarle July 14, 2011
"During the year 2008, the constructive and effective collaboration with the company ORA, led by Mr Benoit Duponcheele, has allowed TUC RAIL to achieve our ambitious goals for recruitment : more than 100 people whose majority of engineers. The professionalism and in particular, the flexibility and speed of ORA services have been valuable for meeting our recruitment needs. Consequently, I strongly recommend Benoit and ORA services.
Muriel Sornasse HR MANAGER TUCRAIL" November 14, 2010
After looking for several months, without success, a financial manager who also has a wide experience in human resources management we turned to ORA. Their team helped us to clearly define the desired profile, and found the person we were looking for within a couple of weeks. Efficiency and professionalism!
Bart, FUCAM
Working with Ora is a real pleasure. The combination of internet search, internet advertising and a lot of expertise in search & selection, makes the ORA-RKM business concept an ideal cocktail to use for search of starters and medium level employees.
The personal touch and follow-up makes that I can strongly recommend Benoît and ORA-RKM as a partner
Ward, Lego
Our first cooperation with ORA for the recruitment of a senior consultant was extremely fruitful. Despite the fact that the profile we were looking for was quite specific, ORA's research led to a succesfull and rather quick recruitment. We really appreciated the responsiveness and availability of ORA during the whole process.We will not hesitate to cooperate with them in the future
Benedicte, Kellen International.

In 2007 I PCS'ed to RAF Lakenheath, United Kingdom, my time at Lakenheath has been long, and a trail has been laid behind that has not always been an easy one.
To my brothers and sisters by badge and beret, in arms and in life we are here for you guys take care and get well, for those lost our thoughts are with you and your families, sad days will come and they will go. However long time passed they will not be forgotten you will be remembered and honored.

David Penny was one of the best people I ve met, period. Met him when he was still an Airmen before he was medically discharged after being diagnosed with cancer. Despite the hard news he was still a better troop then most before he left. He fought a long battle and always showed his head to be up high, incredibly saddened to hear cancer had taken his life too soon.
21 January 2012
Lost a legend on this day Chief Master Sergeant Hoyt. He was an inspiring leader, a great person and excellent mentor. He was also a father and a husband with a great sense of humor. The Air Force lost one of its finest, he was always one for HIS troops no one could have ever asked for better. You were a legend of the Blue Beret, the world is darker and so is the Air Force with out your presence, all the lives you have touched mourn and remember you good sir.
These have all been good people I ve had the honor to serve with personally and have gone too soon.

Sony today kicked out two new DSLR cameras, the A290 and A390. Both include a 14.2 megapixel sensor, optical image stabilization, memory card slot, SDHC card slot, and what Electronistsa says is a simplified control layout and redesigned grip for a more comfortable hold. The difference between the two models is in the display. While both include a 2.7-inch LCD and are devoid of video recording, the A290 lacks 'live view' and can't be tilted to accommodate awkward angles, unlike the A390.
There is no official word on pricing or launch date, but rumors indicate that we should expect them this summer for $500 and $600 respectively.

Lately I have seen some questions on forums about mail flow between Exchange 2003 and Exchange 2010. I actually wrote about this very issue in a blog before (in the Things to think about" section) but I will explain it again.
When you first install Exchange 2007/10 into a Exchange 2003 organization a routing group connector will be created. This connector is used to send mail between the two versions. The connector will be created with a bridgehead of one Exchange 2003 server and the hub transport server you install (Exchange 2007/10). A good practice is to add multiple bridgehead servers to this connector to avoid single point of failure.
Now I see people keeping a Exchange 2003 server for some reason but at the same time go from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2010. Since the routing group connector was set up between the Exchange 2003 and the Exchange 2007 server mail flow will break as soon as the Exchange 2007 is shut down or removed.
The solution to reestablish mail flow is simply to add valid servers as bridgeheads by using the Set-RoutingGroupConnector cmdlet.
Set-RoutingGroupConnector <Name of RGC> -TargetTransportServers <Name of Exchange Server> -SourceTransportServers <Name of Exchange Server>
Last chance to attend my training on Exchange 2003/7 to Exchange 2010 Transition is soon here. It's a three day lab with all my expertise from transition projects mixed with a full hands-on lab where you will do a full transition from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2010.
During the three days you will get:
The training will be at Labcenter in Stockholm. Check out their site for details and sign up!
Check out the new blog over at MSExchangeteam.com where Robert Gillies will go through a lot of interesting steps to transform a Exchange 2003/2007 org into Exchange 2010.
The plan is to test a lot of different scenarios and some of the steps that could be covered are:
Looks like a lot of interesting reading ahead, start now and read about The Scenario.

Well over a year ago I started writing a lab/workshop on how to transition from previous versions of Exchange to Exchange 2010. I have given this lab for over a 100 Exchange admin by now and added all my experience from my own transitions into it.
Do you want to master Exchange 2010 transition? Great! Have a look at Labcenter for a more detailed description (in Swedish) of the lab.
The lab covers both transition from Exchange 2003 and Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2010.
I have been in the process of writing this blog for a long time and now it's finally here. The reason for this blog is that after you install Exchange 2010 you can no longer install a previous version of Exchange into the same organization (in a supported way). You might think that that is not a problem and you are probably right but there are two scenarios when you might run into problems.
Let's talk a bit about the first scenario and why this might be a problem.
When you perform you Schema updates for Exchange 2010 (or run the setup witch will update the schema for you) you will be prompted with a warning:
Setup is going to prepare the organization for Exchange 2010 by using 'Setup /PrepareAD'. No Exchange 2007 server roles have been detected in this topology. After this operation, you will not be able to install any Exchange 2007 server roles.
So when you want to migrate mailboxes from Lotus Domino you could do that with Microsoft Transporter Suite. As stated in the overview it's only supported for Exchange 2007
Transporter Suite contains a set of tools for migrations from both Lotus Domino Servers, and generic IMAP/POP sources. For Lotus Domino the suite contains a set of tools for Directory and Free/Busy interoperability between Lotus Domino 6, 7 and 8 and Exchange Server 2007 and Windows Server 2003/2008 Active Directory. In addition for Lotus Domino the suite contains migration tools to migrate users, groups, personal address lists, mailboxes, personal mail archives, and applications from Lotus Domino 5, 6, 7 or 8 to Active Directory, Exchange Server 2007, and Windows SharePoint Services 3.0. For generic POP/IMAP servers the suite contains a set of tools to bulk migrate mailboxes from any generic email servers that support the POP3 or IMAP4 protocol to mailboxes in Exchange Server 2007
There is no Transporter Suite for Exchange 2010 so this means that you would have to use a Exchange 2007 server to migrate your Lotus Domino data to Exchange.
So if you are about to install Exchange 2010 and might need to migrate from Domino, think about installing a Exchange 2007 first. Please also read the last part of this blog for more info about things to think about
If you already installed Exchange 2010 and now find you self in a situation where you need to migrate Domino to Exchange 2010 there are some third party tools you can use, BinaryTree and Quest.
The second reason for installing a Exchange 2007 server before you install Exchange 2010 could be WebDAV. WebDAV is not a part of Exchange 2010 so if you have systems that use WebDAV you will need to have a Exchange 2007 server for that purpose.
If you for any reason needs a Exchange 2007 server on your way to Exchange 2010 there are some things you should think about:
When you install a Exchange 2007 Hub Transport server into a Exchange 2003 organization you will be asked to point out a Exchange 2003 server. The reason for this is to set up a routing group connector between Exchange 2003 and Exchange 2007.
Screenshot from Exchange 2007 setup
After you select a Exchange 2003 server setup will create a routing group connector between the server you install and the selected Exchange 2003 server. So what's the problem with that? Well since the dialog in the screenshot above only will show up when you install your first Hub Transport server there is a possible risk of single point of failure and if you only have your Exchange 2007 server for "better safe then sorry" purpose then you might not care that much about it an possible even shut it down with the result of no mail flow between Exchange 2003 and 2007/2010.
To avoid that to happen you can use Exchange Management Shell to configure the RGC with multiple bridgehead servers.
[PS] C:>Set-RoutingGroupConnector <Name of RGC> -TargetTransportServers <Name of Exchange Server> -SourceTransportServers <Name of Exchange Server>
Note: By default there are two routing group connectors created, enter multiple Target and Source Transport servers on both.
When you install your Exchange 2010 Hub Transport Servers it's a good idea to include them as well.
After you install your Exchange 2010 servers you probably don't want clients to access the "temporary" Exchange 2007 box so the are a few things to configure to avoid that.
Here are the settings I change (in these examples loadbalancer.mailmaster.local represent the internal Exchange 2010 load balancer and webmail.mailmaster.se the external URL, in my case a TMG Server)
Set-ClientAccessServer Exchange2007server -AutoDiscoverServiceInternalUri:"https://loadbalancer.mailmaster.local/Autodiscover/Autodiscover.xml"
Set-OwaVirtualDirectory "Exchange2007serverowa (Default Web Site)" -InternalUrl: "https://loadbalancer.mailmaster.local/owa" -ExternalUrl:"https://webmail.mailmaster.se/owa"
Set-ActiveSyncVirtualDirectory "Exchange2007ServerMicrosoft-Server-ActiveSync (Default Web Site)" -InternalUrl: "https://loadbalancer.mailmaster.local/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync" -ExternalUrl:"https://webmail.mailmaster.se/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync"
Set-OabVirtualDirectory "Exchange2007ServerOAB (Default Web Site)" -InternalUrl: "https://loadbalancer.mailmaster.local/oab" -ExternalUrl:"https://webmail.mailmaster.se/oab"
Set-WebServicesVirtualDirectory "Exchange2007ServerEWS (Default Web Site)" -InternalUrl: "https://loadbalancer.mailmaster.local/EWS/Exchange.asmx" -ExternalUrl:"https://webmail.mailmaster.se/EWS/Exchange.asmx"
If you perform the above you can shut down your Exchange 2007 server and there will still be mail flow and client will still be able to connect to your Exchange 2010 servers.
Some other questions I can imagine can arise…
Q: Can I shut down the "temp Exchange 2007 server" and forget about it?
A: No! If you do the computer object will get tomb stoned in Active Directory so the server should be online once in a while to prevent that. If you want to check how long you tombstone time is, check this out
Q: Can I uninstall the "temp Exchange 2007 server" and reinstall if needed?
A: No! To be honest I have tried that and I can actually get it to work but I have asked this question to members of the Exchange product group and got a no. It might be that it hasn't been tested…
Q: How do I uninstall the "temp Exchange 2007 server" when I no longer need it (and I'm SURE I don't need it)?
Nothing special here, you uninstall it like you would with any Exchange 2007 server, here's a How to…
Q: Do you really install this "temp Exchange 2007 server" at every customer before you install Exchange 2010?
A: No! But I make sure the customer understands the pros and cons with that BEFORE I install Exchange 2010
Q: Will there be a change in SP1 regarding this?
A: To my knowledge no!
Cannot install Exchange 2007 roles after you prepare Active Directory for Exchange 2010
Installing Exchange 2003/2007 in an Exchange 2010 Environment
Or would you just like to see some of the sessions again?
Check out the recorded sessions here! My session about Exchange 2010 transition is in there as well.
After last years success I'm eager to come back for Techdays, this year in Örebro. My session this year will be about transition from Exchange 2003/7 to Exchange 2010. I will also be available for questions and demos in the MEET-section. See you in Örebro!

Just another dream where I lived in this really nice apartment in a cove on a bay and do simple work for simple pay and then one day I take up a job to apparently "quiet" a bunch of japanese girls on a boat which I don't realize means kill and then I get to the boat and some assassian lady tries to beat me to the punch and then kill me but I kill her first and then, having committed murder, I return to my apartment and some people from the underground mutant colony that lives next door to me ask if I would ever do it again and I told them "never"

that sounds fantastic.
No, like we were fighting each other. This wasn't a Katniss and Peeta thing.
Alison Brie and I were fighting to the death with Gillete Fusion Proglide Razor's.
I would have preferred to see Edward Norton play Gatsby.
I would have preferred to see someone who wasn't Baz-"Why can't everything be edited like a 90's music video?"-Luhrmann directing The Great Gatsby.
im-cat replied to your post: im-cat replied to your post: My dreams keep…
I dunno, at least the creepy/weird/intense dreams are fun to write about, you know? And they're fun to describe, but my brain keeps tossing me these really nice situations with really perfect people, and waking up from the dreams just fucking sucks.
I used to enjoy writing about weird, intense dreams but these days I just want one where I'm not trying to save my friends from a giant mammal thing while we're running around a Japanese suburb. If I can just get some kind of dream-girl that could never exist to spend a day at dream Hershey Park with me, that's A+. I usually figure out it's a dream once I realize I don't recognize this person, but I try to ignore that because once I realize I'm in a dream, my brain is like "HE KNOWS TOO MUCH! ABORT! ABORT! GET OUTTA THERE!" It does suck, but it's the whole "better to have loved and lost than never loved at all" or something like that.
im-cat replied to your post: My dreams keep being continuously ridiculous
I have a lot of those too. They are kind of unpleasant. Does your brain also create dream significant others? I hate that a little more than the ridiculous ones.
I actually prefer the dreams with dream significant others. Where the ridiculous ones usually end with me getting shot/bitten/stabbed and are a Lynchian plethora of "Can you even guess what the fuck I'm a metaphor for? Trust Issues maybe? Social Anxieties? It could be anything at this point!"
At least with dream significant others it feels like my brain's throwing me a bone, the dream equivalent to a drunken hook-up (In theory, not that I'm some kind of expert). Sure, it's obviously not a permanent solution and it won't change anything, but it's nice to have company for the night and forget that I'm single.
From SyFy original movie plot-lines played straight in my head, to giant killer rodent things while on vacation in Japan (not like Godzilla giant, more like The Host), to Hunger-Games style Battle Royale's in a warehouse (God Jack just shut up and let me stab you, stop being a bitch about it because I'm the one that's beating you just because I didn't wanna date you).
I would just like a dream where I don't wake up with physical pains in me as remnants of what my brain decided to make me feel.
Or a Paprika-style dream recorder and a psychologist. They'd have a freakin' field day with my dreams lately.
There are bags under my eyes. Bags of money haaha later peasants
I wish I could fast forward my life 6 months just to see if I'm okay
New and classic films abound this year on the farm. Catch an advance sneak peek of Hit and Run, written, directed by and starring Dax Shepard (Parenthood) and starring Kristen Bell (House of Lies; Forgetting Sarah Marshall). Hit and Run is the story of Charlie Bronson (Dax Shepard), a nice guy with a questionable past who risks everything when he busts out of the witness protection program to deliver his fiancée (Kristen Bell) to Los Angeles to seize a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.Dax and Kristen will be on hand to present the film, which also stars The Hangover's Bradley Cooper.
Basically, I'm going to get the chance to be in the same room (tent, actually) as Kristen Bell.
Kristen Bell and I are going to become BFF's
We are going to become the B-est of all BF's ever of all time.
A few hours ago, I landed in Los Angeles, turned on my phone, and confirmed what you already know. Sony Pictures Television is replacing me as showrunner on Community, with two seasoned fellows that I'm sure are quite nice - actually, I have it on good authority they're quite nice, because they once created a show and cast my good friend Jeff Davis on it, so how bad can they be.
Why'd Sony want me gone? I can't answer that because I've been in as much contact with them as you have. They literally haven't called me since the season four pickup, so their reasons for replacing me are clearly none of my business. Community is their property, I only own ten percent of it, and I kind of don't want to hear what their complaints are because I'm sure it would hurt my feelings even more now that I'd be listening for free.
I do want to correct a couple points of spin, now that I'm free to do so:
The important one is this quote from Bob Greenblatt in which he says he's sure I'm going to be involved somehow, something like that. That's a misquote. I think he meant to say he's sure cookies are yummy, because he's never called me once in the entire duration of his employment at NBC. He didn't call me to say he was starting to work there, he didn't call me to say I was no longer working there and he definitely didn't call to ask if I was going to be involved. I'm not saying it's wrong for him to have bigger fish to fry, I'm just saying, NBC is not a credible source of All News Dan Harmon.
You may have read that I am technically "signed on," by default, to be an executive consulting something or other - which is a relatively standard protective clause for a creator in my position. Guys like me can't actually just be shot and left in a ditch by Skynet, we're still allowed to have a title on the things we create and "help out," like, I guess sharpening pencils and stuff.
However, if I actually chose to go to the office, I wouldn't have any power there. Nobody would have to do anything I said, ever. I would be "offering" thoughts on other people's scripts, not allowed to rewrite them, not allowed to ask anyone else to rewrite them, not allowed to say whether a single joke was funny or go near the edit bay, etc. It's….not really the way the previous episodes got done. I was what you might call a….hands on producer. Are my….periods giving this enough….pointedness? I'm not saying you can't make a good version of Community without me, but I am definitely saying that you can't make my version of it unless I have the option of saying "it has to be like this or I quit" roughly 8 times a day.
The same contract also gives me the same salary and title if I spend all day masturbating and playing Prototype 2. And before you ask yourself what you would do in my situation: buy Prototype 2. It's fucking great.
Because Prototype 2 is great, and because nobody called me, and then started hiring people to run the show, I had my assistant start packing up my office days ago. I'm sorry. I'm not saying seasons 1, 2 and 3 were my definition of perfect television, I'm just saying that whatever they're going to do for season 4, they're aiming to do without my help. So do not believe anyone that tells you on Monday that I quit or diminished my role so I could spend more time with my loved ones, or that I negotiated and we couldn't come to an agreement, etc. It couldn't be less true because, just to make this clear, literally nobody called me. Also don't believe anyone that says I have sex with animals. And if there's a photo of me doing it with an animal - I'm not saying one exists, I'm just saying, if one surfaces - it's a fake. Look at the shadow. Why would it be in front of the giraffe if the sun is behind the jeep?
Where was I? Oh yeah. I'm not running Community for season 4. They replaced me. Them's the facts.
When I was a kid, sometimes I'd run home to Mommy with a bloody nose and say, "Mom, my friends beat me up," and my Mom would say "well then they're not worth having as friends, are they?" At the time, I figured she was just trying to put a postive spin on having birthed an unpopular pussy. But this is, after all, the same lady that bought me my first typewriter. Then later, a Commodore 64. And later, a 300 baud modem for it. Through which I met new friends that did like me much, much more.
I'm 39, now. The friends my Mom warned me about are bigger now, and older, bloodying my nose with old world numbers, and old world tactics, like, oh, I don't know, sending out press releases to TV Guide at 7pm on a Friday.
But my Commodore 64 is mobile now, like yours, and the modems are invisible, and the internet is the air all around us. And the good friends, the real friends, are finding each other, and connecting with each other, and my Mom is turning out to be more right than ever.
Ah, shit, I still haven't called my fucking Mom.
Mom, Happy Mother's Day. I got fired.
Yes, Mom. AGAIN.
There's now a "The Dan Harmon Years" part of Community. We'll see if they can still make it good in season 4 without him (and all the other writers/producers who left) but who knows…
And while Community does exist as a show with seven very important, very well constructed characters, there is a hero among the bunch: Abed. Abed is Community's shining star. Community is Abed's show. And from the moment we meet him in the pilot, to his first tear-jerking short film that touched his father's heart, to his expressed reliance on television later in the first season, all the way up to his most recent post-expulsion breakdown into Inspector Spacetime mode (the only way he's comfortable "getting to the bottom" of the very clear problem presented with he and his friends).
And although Abed is awesome — a fly too awesome for the wall, in fact — he's also a very complicated, very troubled, very lonely character. Dan Harmon appreciates this. He gave fans the heartbreaking "Abed's Uncontrollable Christmas," an animated episode that will make you break down in tears. He created the how-the-hell-did-this-get-approved "Critical Film Studies" in which Abed manipulates Jeff into inadvertently living out the movie My Dinner with Andre, the only way he knows how to reach out for human affection. And in "Virtual Systems Analysis," Abed takes a long, hard look at himself, realizing just how pained he his by his own compulsion to distance himself from his friends, and how much he needs them.
Harmon loves Abed. He appreciates what makes him a tragic character. He also appreciates what makes him a hilarious oddball. And this balance is integral to keeping Community's most important figure as close to our hearts as he needs to be. Because, in all truth, most of us watching Community are Abeds in our own right."—
This is the one part of the show I'm most terrified of in Dan's absence. He loves all of his characters, but he loves Abed.(via 500daysofevilexes)

Our only concern is that, at around £550, the D3200 does face some pretty stiff competition from slightly older but more strongly featured DSLRs such as the Nikon D5100 and Canon 600D, both of which offer a bit more room to grow your skills with. Judged purely on its own merits though, there's a lot to like about the D3200, not least its impressive image quality. If you're looking to purchase your first DSLR and are looking for something you can learn the basics with then the D3200 certainly merits a closer look.

Dozens of yachts have begun to arrive in the Northern port of Lovina for an annual meet dubbed Lovina Sail Indonesia 2011 set to take place next week. The annual event is meant to promote tourism in the region, and is held by the Buleleng regency government. It is expected that 103 yachts from 23 different countries will be in attendance. "Indeed, there are some who are already at Lovina Beach, even though we planned to officially start next Monday," said Head of Culture and Tourism Buleleng, Putu Wijaya Tastra.
Sailing isn't the only activity on the schedule of events. "We will also introduce a variety of North Bali's arts and culture treats, while there are also several tours to introduce the potential of Buleleng and views besides the beach," said Tastra Wijaya.
Sail Indonesia activities are scheduled to take place over four days from Monday to Thursday next week. In addition to showcasing arts and culture, it is also expected to generate economic wealth in the surrounding communities.
The number of participants has increased compared to Sail Indonesia 2010 when only 15 countries took part, the chairman of Cinta Bahari Indonesia Foundation (YCBI), Raymond T. Lesmana, said a few days ago. The new areas to be visited is located on the southern route which has been less a promotion, he added. As many as 22 countries have confirmed their plans to participate in Sail Indonesia 2011 that was officially launched in Jakarta a few days ago.
"There are more participants for Sail Indonesia 2011 than last year. If in 2010 there were only 15 countries, now the number has increased to 22," he said.According to Raymond, the Sail Indonesia participants were scheduled to depart from Darwin, Australia, on July 23 and expected to arrive in Kupang, East Nusa Tenggara`s provincial capital, on July 27 to 28.
The participants will be in Kupang for a week before they sail on to Alor, Rote Ndao, Sabu Raijua, Lembata, Ende and Labuan Bajo districts on Flores Island and elsewhere in Indonesia. "We expect the participants will be in East Nusa Tenggara province about a month because there are a number of such new areas to be visited by the participants as Sabu Raijua and Rote Ndao," Raymond said.
He said, the foundation is coordinating with several district administrations, especially the new area ones that will be stop off to perform a variety of preparations. In addition, Sail Indonesia 2011 which will make Kupang as the entrance to the other regions in Indonesia will focus on areas that have not yet been visited.
The regions are Ndao Rote, Sabu Raijua to Sumba island which have been less had the opportunity to stop off by the Sail Indonesia participants."In previous years, the transit route is always monotonous namely the northbound lane through the East Flores to West Flores. Now we are trying to open new destinations," Raymond noted.

TTC - September
Find a Conversation
|Tue, 09-01-2009 - 3:23am
I thought I'd go ahead and get the September ball rolling, especially because there are so many of us who are really optimistic about September! I even put the tickers in order of where everyone is in their cycle. That'll change, but for now we've got those closest to testing up top. :)
Ruby, I wasn't sure where you were in your cycle, so let me know and I'll move you so we can have some idea of where you fall.
Let me know if I forgot anybody!
|Tue, 09-01-2009 - 7:29am
Yay for September! I hope we get lots of BFPs this month!
Andi - That's awful about your allergic reaction! Do you have any idea what might have caused it? And that's funny about being set up on a blind-friend date!
AFM: Not sure what our chances will be like this month - we weren't able to GOFO last night like planned because DH was feeling really ill (I have a feeling it was more stress about his interview tomorrow than anything).
My temp this morning definitely is above the cover line though - so the question is did I O on the weekend (like I thought - and the EWCM I was seeing was just residual semen), or did I O yesterday. I guess I'll find out in a week or so when either AF comes or I can test.
I did order some IC's, so hopefully they come soon!
|Tue, 09-01-2009 - 10:52am
Alyssa- I love your new siggie. I usually make my own, but yours is so beautiful, I am considering having Joelle make me one!
Erin- thanks for setting that up, and I actually really like that its in order too! You're right that it will change, but there will always be a section to watch instead of looking at all the charts to figure it out.
Jenni- good luck on these next couple days, I have decided that the few days right before you find out its AF or a BFP are the worst. (Although with my 2 unexpectedly short last two cycles, I didn't even have time to hope... I guess that's good, I was complaining that every month I got my hopes up, and so that's what I get... no hopes at all :-P). I hope you are doing okay with it, and I hope that you can start off our Sept. with a BFP!
afm- in about 5 minutes I am leaving to go to a retreat for work. I will be gone till Thursday afternoon. The hardest part about it is being away from DH. He is invited to come, but can't take this time off, so then I have to deal without him. We've done it before, and every time it gets easier, but the first retreat was really tough.
My temp was a bit higher this morning, which was strange. I wasn't going to temp over the next two days, but with that strange one, I decided I should figure out what my body is doing. If I am ovulating earlier than normal that could explain my early AF too. I just hope its not this early... especially since there will be no GOFO time possible until Thurs evening. Oh well... we'll see what happens.
Talk to you girls later
|Tue, 09-01-2009 - 10:59am
ERIN - thanks for setting the thread up! Wow, September already... the holidays are around the corner *eek*
ALYSSA - Looking at your chart I think I would vote for the later O date. Even if you didn't get to GOFO last night you'd still have a pretty good chance (I think I remember you had a GOFO streak going before that, yah?) Oh, and my allergy thing... my body produces too much histamine in response to physical pressure or touch (a clothing tag, socks too tight, leaning against a chair), then I scratch which causes hives and more histamine and more itching. I'm allergic to myself. LOL
Have a good day everyone!
|Tue, 09-01-2009 - 8:53pm
Lisa - definitely get Joelle to make you a new siggie! She's amazing (plus, if you have a few, you can put them in a rotator). I guess you won't see this until you get back, so I hope you had a great time at your retreat! Fingers crossed that you don't O too early!
Andi - that's awful about being allergic to yourself (but, admittedly, is a bit funny!). You're right in that even if I did O yesterday, our GOFOing from before that could still be okay - I guess only time will tell.
AFM - I had an appointment with a tattoo artist today (I have three already, and want to get another). I showed her what I wanted, and we came up with a plan! It will be a comet across the top of my foot - the head will be just under my big toe, and then it'll swoop along under my toes and end under the pinky! I'm so excited to get it, but we couldn't make the appointment until Oct. 15th :P So, if I get PG before then, I can't get it done.
There's a *little* part of me that wants to hold off on getting PG so I can get it done - but it's not overwhelming. I guess I can think of it as a fun thing to do if we DON'T get PG - otherwise, I'll be PG, and I can't complain! LOL

Hi Ladies,
Someday soon I'll get back to personals, I swear!! Things are coming along for us. I'm on CD 15 today and I think I O'd on Saturday or Sunday. DH and I will probably GOFO the next week and a half EOD, though DH seems ultra frisky recently and we've done it ED for a few days now. Not that I'm complaining or anything...
Laminate should be done tomorrow and I'm striping my bathroom this week. The base color is a light gray called Fine Silver and the other stripe is called Blackberry Bloom which is a rich dark purple. I so hope things are semi-normal next week which I think it will be once we move furniture upstairs. It's so overwhelming.
Overall I feel pretty good about TTC and hoping we caught the egg. We'll have to see what happens I guess. I don't plan to test until I'm a week late.
Thanks Katie for my siggy!

Jen - it's not really dangerous to get a tattoo while PG (just the general things about infection, etc., which might happen with getting one in general), but it's one of those things where they say it's not required, so why risk it? I actually asked my doctor about it, and she wasn't worried, but did say to ask the tattoo artist. It was the artist that said they absolutely won't do it, because of stress on the body (and I think to cover their butts in case something DOES go wrong - either with the tattoo or with the baby).
I've attached pictures of mine in the order I got them (sorry for the bad angles; the one of the ankle goes all the way around)
That's great that your pain is mostly gone! It would be really tough having lots of pain while having sex, so I'm glad that it's not as bad. And I've been talking to my tummy too - and telling DH that I'm his potentially pregnant wife! LOL Being positive about it definitely can't hurt, so do it if you want :D
AFM - DH has a big interview today! It's his second one with the company, so we're hoping he'll get a job offer soon (fingers crossed).

Unmasking Halloween: Is it just harmless fun?
- Thursday, October 20, 2005
Gradually, there were more saints than there were individual days to honor them. The solution seemed to be to consolidate the remembrance of all of them into one special day called "All Saints Day."
Remember that I said earlier that every May a celebration was held in the Pantheon in honor of the Virgin Mary? In A.D. 705, Pope Gregory III changed the celebration of All Saints Day to November 1st. In A.D. 834, Pope Gregory IV extended the celebration to the entire Roman Church. This was an apparent attempt to coincide with the ancient Druidic festival of "Samhain." The Church wanted to accommodate itself to the recently conquered German Saxons and Norsemen of Scandinavia. So it baptized yet another pagan celebration.
Thus, this special Church day of remembrance was called "Allhalowmas." It was easily shortened into "All Hallow" for the "hallowed ones" or "saints" who were being remembered. The night before, October 31st, evolved into "All Hallow Evening." It, too gradually was shortened to "All Hallow Eve," then came the contraction "Hallows E'en," and finally to its current form of "Halloween."
So a day that started out as simply a remembrance of the saints progressed to a reverence for the saints and finally ended in a worship of the saints.
There was an unholy wedding then of the "saints" and "Samhain" … a union of "light" and "darkness" … a co-mingling of the "cup of the Lord" with the "cup of demons" (I Cor. 10:16-21).
These three religious and historic streams, then, have converged to form the polluted river of Halloween. Again I must say that the ultimate fountainhead of Halloween is Satan.
Innocent Fun?
Just as Satan has successfully veiled the true focus of Christmas by Santa Claus, reindeer, Christmas trees and presents, and the resurrection of Christ with Easter bunnies and Easter eggs, he has given the true pagan nature of Halloween a benign cultural veneer of respectability.
Satan is the master of deceit and disguise. His favorite deception is to convince educated people that he really does not exist. What better way for him to perpetrate the illusion that neither his person nor power exist than to make it all "innocent fun."
Anyone who has spent time on the mission field, as I have, will know beyond a shadow of a doubt that the whole realm of evil spirits and the demonic are not something to be played with. To put them in the same category as fairy tales, make-believe and mythology is spiritual suicide. This is the very real and active fallen realm of "principalities, powers, rulers of darkness and spiritual forces in heavenly places" that scripture tells us to stand against in the whole armor of God (Eph. 6:12).

Students from class years prior to 2014 share many characteristics with all other undergraduates but also have unique needs and concerns - and that's where the Undergraduate Deans Office can help! We admit we probably don't have all the answers, since every student brings new questions. Let's work together to seek the answers you need.
If you expect to complete your degree requirements by the end of this term, please scroll down to "Graduation Preparation" and use the link to the "Graduation Preparation Checklist" above.
Dartmouth College has a network of effective resources to assist every student, whether you plan to graduate in June or are postponing your graduation until a later date. These resources provide support as you pursue academic and personal success while at Dartmouth, and can help you prepare for graduation and life after Dartmouth as well.
Please contact us if we can be of assistance in any way. Make sure you access the support offered by our office (Undergraduate Deans Office), the offices highlighted below, and professors, advisors, coaches, mentors and deans.
With best wishes,
The Undergraduate Deans
The primary purpose of a "Dean's Certification" is to obtain information about academic and disciplinary misconduct (or lack thereof). If requested by the professional school, we will report any major disciplinary sanctions [i.e. Conduct (Suspension or Separation) or Academic (Suspension or Separation)]. It is not College policy to report the specifics of the proceedings. If you have experienced a major disciplinary sanction, please speak with Lesley Kingsley, the pre-law advisor in the Center for Professional Development.
At Dartmouth, the Undergraduate Deans Office attests to the applicant's academic and personal record, if requested by the professional school as part of the "Dean's Certification."
Please submit the form provided by the professional school to Colleen Murphy in the Undergraduate Deans Office in person [Carson 125]. by emailing to Colleen Murphy a scanned copy (if the professional school allows), by fax 603.646.6166, or mail [Hinman 6064 or 6064 Carson Hall, Suite 125, Hanover NH 03755].
Because of the high volume of requests, your "Dean's Certification" will take 2-3 weeks to be processed. Please plan accordingly.
PLEASE NOTE: Dean's Certifications will ONLY be sent to those schools that require them.
Make sure your bill (including DartCard charges, tuition, and room and board) is in good standing with Student Financial Services. Watch for a pre-graduation bill that will be sent in May.
Remember to contact the Undergraduate Deans Office for support as you continue your Dartmouth experience. Take care!

Belly Button Piercing!
I am so happy with my current progress. I am still not where I want to be, but I am getting way closer. Progress was stalled for so long (a year!), that this current change is making me sooooo happy.
I still have 6 pounds to go to my average high school weight of 142 pounds. I originally planned on getting my belly button pierced when I was at my UGW (lower than 135 pounds)—which was more about how I felt/looked rather than that specific weight.
But I am really happy right now with how everything is going so now I think that I am going to get my belly button pierced soon. Like in 2 weeks kind of soon. I am going to try to get to 145 pounds (down 2.5 pounds) and then get it pierced. I also want it to have some time to heal before I get back into my hardcore weight stuff.
Suggestions from people who have had theirs pierced? Anything to know in relation to exercising with a belly button piercing?

A new "feature" in 2013 is the ability to copy a view that is placed on the sheet. Great feature, BTW.
Would it be possible to extend this capability to the Draft View as well?
Currently it does not support to directly copy and paste the draft view. But there should be one workaround that we could copy the sketch geometries within the draft view, then paste them for new draft view.
Copy and pasting the sketch geometry is the easy part. On the draft view there are also dimensions, leaders and notes. I can copy/paste the notes and leaders to the new drawing, but then I have to recreate the dimensions. Its possible to get the draft view to a new sheet, but its just more difficult than it should be.

With its commitment to craftsmanship, Momeni hand-makes every rug, be it a super-luxe Persian carpet or a polypropylene outdoor runner. The family-owned company draws its design inspiration from Eastern and Western textiles like Turkish kilims and Native American blankets, as well as from more everyday sources such as cobblestone streets. And although Momeni weaves the majority of its indoor floor coverings from silk and New Zealand wool, (including its traditional Asian and European patterns), it also creates a few from acrylic (mainly its children's and tween lines). But whatever the material and whatever the use, Momeni rugs reflect a timeless love of texture and artistry.
What do you get when you mix Old World influences with modern whimsy? These one-of-a-kind rugs for kids and tweens, each of which is handmade by the family-owned brand. In today's mix: a round train-inspired number, a retro flower-power design, and super-plush shags in pink and baby blue.
Conflicted over whether you want a solid or a printed rug? A tonal look may be just what you're looking for. To that end, these tone-on-tone floor coverings impress with their saturated, gradated hues. They'll add plenty of visual interest to any room, without going over the top.

OK Go and Google rock out with HTML5 music video
Summary: Rock band and YouTube sensation OK Go has teamed up with Google for "All Is Not Lost," an HTML5-powered music video.
OK Go, the rock band best known for dominating YouTube by dancing on treadmills for the "Here It Goes Again" video and setting up a Rube Goldberg machine for "This Too Shall Pass," has debuted "All Is Not Lost," a unique HTML5 music video developed in collaboration with Google and designed for the Chrome browser.
(UPDATE: "All Is Not Lost" appears to only work in Google Chrome.)
The "All Is Not Lost" video makes use of plenty of sneaky, impressive HTML5 techniques. The dance troupe and choreographers Pilobolus join OK Go on a glass floor as they form complex shapes and dance to the beat. Different sequences are performed in different windows, which automatically grow, shrink and move as the song progresses.
But the best part is the very end, where the dancers form a message that you yourself set at the very beginning. You can see what I chose to say in the picture to the right.
Users are encouraged to share their custom video messages with each other and the world. In fact, OK Go considers the "All Is Not Lost" video itself a message of hope to victims of the Japanese earthquake, and worked primarily with the Google Japan team on this project, according to the official blog entry.
"All Is Not Lost" definitely calls to mind "The Wilderness Downtown," Google's short film experiment with Chris Milk which used Google Maps imagery and Arcade Fire's "We Used To Wait" to showcase the power of HTML5.
I have to say - this may not be the killer app that converts Flash advocates to Google's HTML5 vision. But "All Is Not Lost" is definitely a lot of fun.

Joint Media Release
Australian Minister for the Environment and Heritage
Senator the Hon. Ian Campbell
Australian Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry
The Hon Peter McGauran
15 May 2006
Australian Government Ministers announced today that the Cape York Peninsula Development Association (CYPDA) would act as an interim delivery agent for a substantial part of the Natural Heritage Trust investment in the Cape York region.
The CYPDA is an independent association with members drawn from industry, local government, and the community. Membership is open to anyone.
"The CYPDA is a trusted regional association which has good experience in managing projects and we believe this interim arrangement is another step towards the community-based model we are all wanting to see established in Cape York," Australian Minister for the Environment and Heritage, Senator Ian Campbell, said.
"While I am determined to get on-ground investment going as soon as possible, our first priority must be to avoid disruption to funding of projects in the region and working hard to ensure existing and new projects are appropriately funded.
"We are very pleased to be working in partnership with Queensland in the delivery of Natural Heritage Trust investment in Cape York," he said.
Australian Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry, Peter McGauran, said the pastoral and agricultural sector in the Cape needed assurance that their special needs were being taken into consideration.
"We are focused on finding sustainable ways to utilise natural resources so they can continue to support the community now and into the future," Mr McGauran said.
"We recognise that all land managers are custodians of our resources and they bring a huge level of experience to this field. Our focus will be to ensure these land managers are encouraged and guided in good NRM practices.
"There has been a lot of planning in the Cape over the past decade or more and communities are now anxious to get on with the job," he said.
Senator Campbell said while there is a need to eventually get a fully accredited NRM plan in place for the Peninsula, there are plenty of priority activities. For example, fire management and weed and feral animal control can be undertaken now and action is needed to protect these natural and economic assets.
York Peninsula is one of the 14 natural resource management regions in Queensland that have been created to deliver major government environmental and sustainable agriculture programmes. Its outstanding natural assets have been long recognised.
The remoteness of the Peninsula and small, dispersed population centres make it unique amongst other regions in Queensland.
The Cape region covers an area of approximately 137,000 square kilometres. Land uses include broad acre pastoralism, bauxite and silica sand mining, nature reserves, tourism and fishing.
Land is also dedicated to national parks and to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander use. Roughly 700 kilometres of land along the west coast of the Cape is predominantly Aboriginal lands, reserves and mines. Most of the pastoral leases occupy the centre of the region and across to locations on the east coast.

MILWAUKEE (WKOW) -- A 76-year-old Milwaukee man accused of shooting and killing his teenager neighbor will get a mental exam to determine whether he's competent to proceed to trial.
John Spooner was in court Monday for a motion hearing. He's accused of killing 13-year-old Darius Simmons last May over an alleged theft.
Defense attorney Steve McGaver requested a change of venue, arguing that pre-trial publicity would make it difficult for Spooner to receive a fair trial. Judge Jeffrey Wagner denied that motion.
McGaver also told the judge there was reason to believe Spooner might not be competent to proceed. The judge ordered that Spooner be evaluated by a mental-health professional.
Online court records say the doctor's report is due Feb. 4. The trial date was also pushed back two months, to May 6.
