U.S. Rep. Rob Woodall, the freshman Republican from Lawrenceville, ran into some flak last night over his vote to approve the debt-ceiling deal reached by Congress this month.
Woodall was one of three Georgians to vote "aye" – the others were U.S. Rep. Tom Price, R-Roswell, and Johnny Isakson.
From Blake Aued of the Athens Banner-Herald, who was at the town hall meeting:
Paul Leslie of Winder likened it to driving a bus off a cliff, then opening a parachute.
"Some things you can't compromise on," he said. "You can't compromise with evil."
Woodall, R-Lawrenceville, said he understands that viewpoint, but stood by his vote.
"I'm proud of that vote," he told the crowd.
"We're not," one man called out.
Aued's piece closes with this odd exchange:
Woodall defended global free trade, saying that it promotes U.S. exports. The strength of U.S. manufacturing is quality, and Americans should not try to compete on low wages with China and Mexico, he said.
More banking regulations aren't needed, but the Justice Department should enforce the laws on the books, he said, prompting boos from the audience.
Woodall's town hall experience underlines the wisdom of the joint appearances that U.S. Sens. Saxby Chambliss and Johnny Isakson have been making across the state this month. They've got one planned for next Tuesday in Young Harris.
Chambliss voted against the debt plan. Isakson, as stated above, voted for it. So far, each senator has resisted the temptation to rip the lungs from the chest of his colleague – thus setting a moral example for audiences to follow, and furthering the cause of civil discourse.

Rob finally gets one right and this is the thanks he gets? These people cannot think their way out of a paper bag. If we did not raise the debt ceiling, all heck would have broken out in financial markets worldwide. Reducing the debt ceiling is what one does AFTER one gets spending and revenues under control, not before. It's like lowering the credit limit on a card AFTER you made the purchases. Now, in addition to having a large balance, you are also over your limit and will pay the price for that.
I'm sure Congressman Woodall had to hold his nose when he made it, but this was indeed a vote he can be proud of.

I went to the Ellijay town hall meeting this morning where U.S. Senators Isakson and Chambliss spoke and took about a dozen questions. Every single question was pointed at how the current debt and deficit spending was/is caused by BOTH political parties. Lots of lip service from the Senators about no more earmarks, the increase in borrowing deal will be met with dollar for dollar spending cuts, and support for the FairTax, but nobody seemed to believe them. It was a mostly polite crowd, but their applause at pointed questions/ comments and obvious distrust put both Senators on the defensive.

The republican/tax party revolutionaries who demand "purity of thought" from their candidates are going to drive swing voters to the democrats.
On the presidential level, a pragmatic businessman like Mitt Romney, Mitch Daniels, or John Huntsman will win the 2012 presidency.
Republican/tea party revolutionaries such like Perry, Bachmann, Cain and Santorium will hand the election to the President.
Republican/tea party revolutionaries say you can't compromise and they will certainly be right – losers will not be in the position to compromise with anyone!

"You can't compromise with evil?" Seriously, this is the mindset of these people? Obama is "evil"? I mean, I can understanding not liking the man, but evil? Jeeze, I wasn't a fan of Bush and thought his policies were terrible, but I didn't think he was evil. It was debt deal, not whether or not their were shipping off carloads of kids to be slaughtered. This is why this country is where it is. And yes, I know this mindset exists on the left as well, and I hate it just as much then too.

Some folks, hiding behind their Tea Party ideology, hate Obama so much — for whatever reason and some would say the color of his skin — they hate Obama so much they are willing to drive the ship of state into a sandbar and create untold misery for the citizens of the United States just to make a political point.
Politics has been defined as "the art of compromise." But when some ol' boy thinks this is unacceptable and that those with whom the compromise would be made are evil — well, that has gridlock all over it and sorry scenario at the end.
How can one conduct business when one party insists on having their way, but they don't have the capacity to carry it out because the opposing party controls one of the Houses of Congress.
It's just this kind of intrangicence and extremist that will cause many to run in the opposite direction come 2012.

Woodall is on his way to being a one term Congressman unless he gets his sh## together fast. I voted for him but he angered a lot of people when he voted right outta the gate to continue federal government funding of NPR, the only GA GOP House delegation member to do so lest we forget.

Woodall is a good man. He needs to learn a little though. Do not follow Johnny and Saxby. Be a conservative and you will always be a winner. Should have let the debt ceiling hit the….ceiling. Nothing was going to blow up like some predicted. It was all a joke.

Boehner said he got 98% of what he wanted, but Woodall kept him from finding out what that other 2% would have done. Watching southern conservatives reminds me of the towns people and the mayor in the movie "Jaws."

I just heard a liberal say that whites have 20 times the wealth of blacks. In Georgia, if you take out the Buckhead and rural country club crowd, the rest of the whites are in just as bad a shape as black, but as history has shown, southern conservative whites pretend it is not true. Southern conservatives can't handle the truth.

An officer famously said about a village in Vietnam, "We destroyed it in order to save it." So, too, the Tea Party with the economy viz. the debt ceiling vote. It is one thing for these fat, dim, old white guys to frolic in three-cornered hats pretending they are Thomas Jefferson (!); it is quite another when their base ignornance of economics finds its way into government policy. Even a trained parrot can say "we have a spending problem, not a revenue problem" when the obvious truth is that we have both.

Yes, linder wrote the book (between drinks) with that hack talk show guy, but the lame text of the bill is woodall's (which is why it has not even had a committee hearing and never will).

TD, most in my class favor redistribution of wealth, and they are being highly successful in its pursuit, thanks to supporters like you. Its just not the kind of redistribution of wealth that you think, being regressive rather than progressive. They could care less that our country is now ranked 64th in income disparity, right down there with Uganda, because they are benefiting personally. I think that they are wrong, though, not based on beliefs grounded in morality or ideology, but the practical. We are a consumption-based economy, and this regressive redistribution of wealth is already causing diminished consumption. Ultimately that is going to catch-up with us too, if supporters like you don't first wise-up and come after us with pitchforks. Reading your posts comforts me that the pitchfork time is still a ways away, although I still despair for my country.

Politicians should work with the other party up to matters of principle. However, spending more with the expectation of spending less is—sheer insanity. For crying out loud, this country is going down a debt hole so deep, it might not EVER be the America where we grew up.
On matters of principle—like the debt—Woodall has to HOLD THE LINE! HOLD THE FRIKKING LINE! If he doesn't, we'll get someone who will.

Let's ask our Georgia congressional delegation to introduce legislation for the following version of:
August 20, 2011
Congressional pay (Senators and Representatives) by 15%. This would reduce the current $174,000 annual salary to $147,900.
Congressional operating expenses by 18%. This would include travel and foreign junkets.
Congressional staff, including State and Washington, D.C. offices by 25%.
Congressional expenditures for all purposes at the 2010 level for the next five years.
Congressional committees and sub-committees at the current number.
Congressional health insurance costs so that each senator and congressman pays at least 50% of monthly premium.
Limit congressional service at 2 six-year terms for senators and 3 two-year terms for congressmen.
Levy fees for services provided through State congressional offices so that the offices are supported by the people who actually use the offices.
Collect rent payments from those representatives and senators who avoid renting or purchasing apartments, condos, or homes in the Washington, D.C. area and instead use their taxpayer provided official office space for their personal living quarters.

Really, I saw a report that stated you can take every single dollar earned by the top 5% and it will not even balance the budget this year much less start paying down the debt.
The report is wrong. The top 5% earn over $166K per year, which is a LOT of people and a lot of money.
But you could take half the total assets from the bottom 50% of the population and you would get about the same amount of money as repealing the Bush tax cuts on those earning over $250K. Think through that one for a while if you can.

Deb A I agree. You left out that these kool aid drinkers are motivated by poison from profit taking talking heads like Limbaugh, Boortz, Ed, and the like. Most of these talking heads like to point out that Americans are stupid and need to be enlightened by them. The ironic truth is that they are somewhat correct. Anyone that seriously considers what they have to say IS stupid.

My sense is that Dick Armey and his Koch Bros. financed FreedomWorks is doing for these Town Hall meetings what he did for the Healthcare Reform Town Hall meetings — sent out instructions on how to disrupt, create anarchy and destroy any possibility for meaningful dialogue.
I'm hopeful that the GOTP primaries will reveal the true and radical nature of this movement and cause the folks to flee in the opposite direction.
But, in reality, it may be asking too much of the fringe movement to have an epiphany.

sorry to disappoint all those tea party bashers but I actually voted for Obama, because i thought Bush and the republicans where going the wrong way with orders like PD 51.
I am an independent thinker and thought Obama was right on some issues; wow, was i wrong; and i have learned alot in the past couple of years
dont get me wrong the republican senators we have in GA are career politicians and dont think for a moment they are not schemers ; they have an end game; why do you think one of them wants to keep NCLB so bad; to completely ruin public education (he can talk rigor and standards all day, but 100% by 2014 . really…..)
with obama there is no ENERGY policy: which really could save our economy if we would drill and grow our energy sector… some ppl say we're using our childrens resources but hell we're spending their money like theres no tomorrow.
we are involved in 3 major conflicts (you cant say war; congress has not declared it)
war on drugs….. thats a laugh (middle school kids can walk down their street and buy a dime bag anytime)
sorry but the tea party message of smaller government falls in line with what the founding fathers had in mind

Well said, Mr. May. Playing chicken with the debt ceiling was the worst thing I think I've witnessed congress do in my long life.
As for those who think term limits solve the problem, it was the lack of institutional knowledge that led us to this brinksmanship. No, to term limits. We've had some great and long tenured statesmen through the years – from right here in GA. Richard Russell, Carl Vinson, Sam Nunn to name a few.
What we HAVE to do is stop voting for people who want it for the power and the money. In past times, reluctant leaders were convinced that their service was needed. (Think Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.) They took their duty seriously. It was a sacrifice for them to go.
We also have to change the idea that corporations can pour money into the coffers of our leaders.

Is Boxed Wine the Next Hipster Fad?
I have only negative memories of boxed wine: from college basement parties to my grandmother's tennis friends in Arizona, it never held my interest. But things are changing and boxed wine is not only becoming cooler, it's simply starting to make more sense.
At neighborhood bars around Seattle, it seems distilleries and breweries are opening each weekend. There is an almost palpable start-up energy with craft bars and interesting small-batch beers, our friends are making their own Fernet Branca, and cocktail house parties have become a favorite pastime. Beyond Seattle, a lot of this energy certainly focuses in on crafting new food and beverage products as well. You can see this parodied in episodes of Portlandia or Girls, or see the evidence in small artisan bottles of catsup or specialty salts at your local boutique grocer.
Trailing not-that-far behind those catsup and salt artisans are the renegade wine makers, and these days it seems some of that buzz is in boxed wine, that product with a long-held reputation for cheap Merlot or rowdy late night parties.
Steffan Bankier, founder of start-up Public House, a New York-based boxed wine company says of his product, "The box holds four bottles of wine ... it's recyclable and the bag keeps the wine fresh for 4-6 weeks once you open it. When you open a bottle, you've got 3-4 days max." Some boxed wine makers have been at it for years and others, like Bankier, are just jumping in now to get their feet wet. Regardless of tenure, all are starting to move boxed wine beyond its ho-hum reputation, relying on the fact that the product just seems to make good sense.
But while it may make sense and businesses like Public House are thinking of new ways to draw customers over to their side, is boxed wine really necessary or it it just another soon-fleeting food/drink trend? From reading and chatting with wine lovers from all walks of life and researching a few boxed wine companies from around the country, it seems there are three main reasons its about to have its time. Or perhaps I'm late to the party, so to speak, and its time is here.
1. Shelf Life: This is a pretty big draw for many folks. Gone are the days of worrying whether or not to open a bottle of red for fear it could go bad before you and your significant other will finish it -- a good box of wine will last for weeks. This is probably the biggest draw of all for me as we have a household of two and there are weeknights where one of us may want just one glass and a bottle ends up sitting for a few too many days before we both sit down to enjoy the rest of it. Why does it last longer? Real Simple writer Jessica Brassard notes, "The bag inside the box slows oxidization because as you use the tap to remove the wine from the bag, the bag collapses and limits the air inside. With a bottle of wine, once it has been opened, the exposure to oxygen means you usually have just a few days before air affects the flavor of the wine."
2. Ease and Convenience: For those of us on the go, boxed wine can be great because you don't have to worry about bottles breaking if you head out on a camping trip, hiking venture or road trip. I'm thinking: just in time for summer picnic season!
3. Savings and Value: Boxed wine is often much more affordable than buying an equal amount of bottled wine. The folks behind Black Box wine note their boxes "costs 40% less than comparable bottled wines."
Regardless of whether boxed wine is the next hipster fling, a wine cousin of PBR, it does seem to be making a strong case for its practical self. (Don't just take my word for it, too; our wine writer Mary Gorman is a fan of some of the newer boxed wines too!)

Yes, boxed wine is excellent, and we need more choices in this category! When I was a single lady, I couldn't drink an entire bottle by myself and even now that I'm partnered, it's nice to just be able to have an occasional glass without worrying about having to drink the bottle in a day or too. And it's perfect for those who cook with wine, but don't drink it a ton!
It's actually pretty common in France.
I do wish there were more options in the 750ml size - I have been known to take wine on backpacking trips and would prefer not to have to choose between a glass bottle and 3-4x as much wine as I really want to be drinking.
I don't have any problem with consuming wine all by myself, true, my glasses tend to be a bit larger than they ought to be, and I'll have maybe two glasses each night with dinner, occasionally, I'll have a spot more and within 4 days, I'll have consumed the larger bottles (2L), or less with the smaller 750Ml bottles) so I don't see what the real issue is, unless I'm going to be gone.
That said, I've drunk the cheap assed Franzia boxed stuff and it's vile, almost bitter in the past at pool parties of old family friends - and they were French!, at least the wife was anyway.
But that was back in the day when boxed wines were rather lack-luster and am glad to know they are going upmarket for there is a practical side to the packaging for many reasons.
I'm sure today, they'd get something that is much better in quality, but in a box for their pool parties.
I miss those fun pool parties they once held.
Geat article! It's a David v Goliath situation out there, but it's stories like this that help us keep fighting the good fight. Thanks, Megan!
If anyone is in the New York area and digs boxed wine, check out our crowd funding campaign on Lucky Ant: bit.ly/drinkpublichouse
Great comments, everyone!
I usually keep boxed wine (often Black Box) on hand for cooking. We don't tend to drink that much of it but it's really handy to have for pulling together a sauce on a weeknight and not needing to 'use up' the rest of the bottle - pour your cup or two and right back on the shelf! Especially true for white wine for us, which we're not likely to drink much of regardless.
This is reminiscent to the bottle v. can debate in the craft beer world with many of the same benefits/stigmas. While canning is still in the minority, choices of good beer in cans has grown significantly over the past couple years.
I don't see a difference with the wine industry.
I've started buying box wine recently. I guess I must be hip. I like that you can buy nice-tasting, quality wines and save lot of money and bottles in the process.
I used to be afraid because of the godawful Franzia, but things have really changed.
Beth - for backpacking, Platypreserve is your friend: http://www.mec.ca/AST/ShopMEC/HikingCamping/Containers/PRD~5018-679/platypus-platypreserve-wine-preservation-system.jsp
I would love to find some good boxed wines, but I've only seen cheapo brands (in Canada, at least). I do hope they become more popular.
"hipster fad" sounds so derisive for something that sounds pretty cool.
Forget hipsters. I'd die a little inside if someone suggested that I might be a hipster. I drink boxed wine, because it's practical. Blah, blah recyclable. I drink wine.
I've found a $10/bottle invisible mystery wine price line. When you venture below $10/bottle, if you don't know exactly what you are getting, it's a grabbag that usually ends up yuck. With a boxed wine, you get 4 bottles (usually between $5-$8/bottle) and if it's something you like, you know you're going to like it all. That's a minimum $20 savings. You can buy another box with that.
Box wines are awesome. I highly recommend Red Box wine from Trader Joes. One box is is equivalent to 4 750ml bottles and it only costs $9.99. It also tastes awesome.
I was thinking more like "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" where they were drinking boxed wine out of empty Diet Coke cans.
Isn't boxed wine "Wino Wine?"
Big House boxed wine is a staple at my home. Visitors laugh until they try some, it's surprisingly good.
I love the Bota Box Cabernet Sauvingon. I'm not sure if it's supposed to be a "good" wine or not, but I like it! It's perfect for girls nights or little get-togethers, because you know you'll have enough, but you also know that it won't go to waste if you can't finish it all right away. Yay for (non-Franzia) boxed wine!
@LastNameTea - I am intrigued by this Trader Joe's boxed wine. I didn't know such a thing existed. I love pretty much everything TJ's and can't wait to pick some up next time I go. Thanks for the tip!
I'm a big fan of Bota Box. Their "Redvolution" blend has become my personal house wine.
Big House is tasty, but the boxes are huge and oddly shaped. Same with Fish Eye.
Bota Boxes tuck nicely into a shelf or cabinet, or just hide behind my counter-top canisters of grains.
We always have a box of wine on the go. It's there when we need it. It lasts for a good month. Perfect for our slow-drinking lifestyle.
I am a huge fan of Bota Box. Since my husband doesn't drink, if I buy a bottle of wine, I end up having to be a lush for a few days. With the box, I can just pour a glass and not worry about it. Plus, we camp a lot and I love to bring a box with us because it travels so well and is campsite-safe.
We use boxed wine for my knitting group. If we don't finish the box, it just goes to the next house the next week. Portable and tasty. Also, as mentioned, good for backpacking and places where glass isn't allowed.
Believe it or not Target box wine is fairly good. I've had a few stinker boxes but I think they had been on the shelf a while or exposed to heat. They are primarily table wine to just slightly above type quality but that isn't a bad thing. The Pinot Grigio tastes way more expensive. I've also like the red and white blends they have. The reds I've used primarily to cook with. I haven't tried the sangrias but I have a friend that swears that if you just add a touch of fruit to the glass it tastes like it's been sitting with it all day but still bright and light.
I've seen some pretty decent boxed wines - will definitely be on the lookout for Public House!

Dangling a hook proves popular
Native species include channel, blue and flathead catfish; spoonbill catfish, a.k.a. paddlefish; carp; buffalo; drum a.k.a. sheepshead; largemouth and smallmouth bass; walleye and its kissin' cousin, sauger; several panfish such as bluegill, crappie, rock bass, and sunfish; striped or white bass; muskie; and some trout.
The Mississippi River is undoubtedly the most fished venue of those available. The ``Father of Waters'' offers extraordinary angling opportunities year round.
Early spring draws walleye and sauger seekers to the swift water tailraces below the roller dams. It also brings catfish, panfish and bass anglers to the Mississippi.
Later in the spring, but before summer heat, Dam 14 near Hampton provides an angling experience somewhat unique to our area -- snagging spoonbill catfish. These leftover prehistoric creatures also are known as paddlefish because of their elongated nose, which resembles a beaver's tail.
Spoonbills feed solely on plankton, making them impossible to catch on conventional hook and line. Regulations allow snagging which can be a real thrill when a fish of more than 50 pounds is on the end of your line.
Spring also is when bass anglers can be found searching the river's backwaters.
Catfish is king in summertime. Early summer finds fishermen by the dozens angling along rocky shorelines, like Moline's Butterworth Parkway, catching spawning cats, which, incidentally, is not difficult to do.
Later, when the water is warmer, flatheads of more than 50 pounds are taken regularly by experienced anglers using bluegills for bait.
Fall, when water cools and many species of fish go on a feeding frenzy to prepare for winter, can be absolutely sensational for fishing.
Winter can produce quality action for the heartiest of anglers, not only from the open water just below the roller dams, but also through the ice in backwater areas where there is little or no current.
First ice and last ice -- the first ice of the year strong enough to support a person, and the last ice hard enough -- are commonly known as the best time to drill a hole for fat bluegills and crappie.
The Rock River has flatheads bigger than 60 pounds. The steel dam, near Milan, is an angler's paradise from spring through fall, and bank fishing can be tremendous for nearly every fish species.
While most of the water below the dam is too shallow and rocky for boats, it is just right for anglers willing to wade the fairly swift current. Novice waders should seek the company of seasoned veteran waders before venturing forth.
The pristine Hennepin Canal stretches on for miles, offering bank anglers, canoeists and belly boaters great opportunity for bass, panfish and catfish.
Lake George, in Loud Thunder Forest Preserve west of Andalusia, may be the most picturesque fishing area in the region. In addition to bass, panfish, walleye and catfish, the 167-acre lake also offers muskie fishing.
A then-state record muskie was caught in Lake George a few years ago. The county-owned facility has a boat ramp and boat rental concession.
The Green River has quality catfish, and in some areas, smallmouth bass. However, nearly all the shoreline is privately owned, thus landowner permission is needed for access.
For those who want to relax in a lawn chair, daydream or take a nap while kind of pretending to fish, Moline's Prospect Park lagoon is periodically stocked with trout; and Moline's Riverside Park lagoon is stocked with catfish.
Timely fishing advice, tips, equipment and live bait are available at several area shops.

The Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs (Judah)\Testamentos dos Doze Patriarcas
in Spirituality
Os Testamentos dos Doze Patriarcas, é um livro apócrifo bíblico pseudoepigráfico, intertestamentário, que se refere a discursos e recomendações atribuídas aos doze filhos de Jacó, antes de morrerem. Figurou em códices e listas do Cânon da Bíblia da Igreja Apostólica da Armênia, pelo menos até o século XIV. Foram introduzidos no Ocidente no Séc XIII, através da tradução latina de Robert Grosseteste, bispo de Lincoln, que se tornou imediatamente popular, acreditando ser uma verdadeira obra dos doze filhos de Jacó, e que as interpolações cristãs eram um produto genuíno da profecia judaica; ele acusou os judeus de esconder os Testamentos "por conta das profecias do Salvador contidas neles." Fragmentos de escritos semelhantes foram encontrados mais tarde em Qumran.
Quarta Feira,10 de Setembro, 23h em Portugal (19h de Brasília)
The Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs is an apocryphal book pseudepigraphic biblical, intertestamental, which refers to speeches and recommendations assigned to the twelve sons of Jacob, before they die. Figured in codices and lists of the canon of the Bible of the Armenian Apostolic Church, at least until the fourteenth century. Were introduced in the West in the thirteenth century, through the Latin translation of Robert Grosseteste, Bishop of Lincoln, who became instantly popular, believing it to be a true work of the twelve sons of Jacob, and that the Christian interpolations were a genuine product of Jewish prophecy; he accused Jews of concealing the Testaments "on account of the prophecies of the Saviour contained in them." Fragments of similar writings were later found at Qumran.

Passover Holiday and Traditions Guest Zach Brooks
in Lifestyle
In 2006, Zach Brooks and his wife Nancy signed a lease agreement for their original retail space in Scottsdale and opened The Jewish Collection. The concept behind the store was to provide a place for Jews to find all of the items needed for life events and holidays, as well as a rich collection of art, books and gifts. The store showcases more than 25,000 items, including more than 200 different tallitot (prayer shawls), a beautiful selection of ketubahs (wedding contracts), a wide array of mezuzah covers and scrolls, along with a variety of holiday and everyday items celebrating Jewish life. While the store is still located in Scottsdale, they recently moved to new space with a more open floor plan for display and more storage. Married and raising for sons prepared the Brooks well for their working partnership. Nancy oversees buying, day-to-day operations at the store and customer service, while Zach oversees technology, communications and finance. Together the Brooks works closely with local rabbis to ensure the religious items follow Jewish law and meet kosher standards.
The Jewish Collection is also dedicated to contributing to the growth of the Jewish community in the greater Phoenix area. It has sponsored a number of educational events and provided more than $150,000 in financial support to Jewish and secular organizations since 2006, including Jewish day schools, synagogues and both Israeli and secular charities. Most recently, they held an interactive fundraiser with renowned Judaica artist, Gary Rosenthal.

Are forecasting models usable for policy analysis?
AbstractIn this article, Christopher A. Sims argues the answer to his title is yes. Sims explains that any decisionmaking model must incorporate some identifying assumptions to enable it to forecast the effects of alternative decisions. He argues that although all identifying assumptions in econometric policymaking models are of uncertain validity, those incorporated in vector autoregression (VAR) forecasting models have the advantage of allowing their uncertainty to be measured. Sims concludes by demonstrating a method for identifying a small macroeconomic VAR model so that it can be used to analyze monetary policy

Catholic records: baptism / marriage / burials
Thanks to Fr. Louis Ha for the following tips:
- Baptisms: The Diocese has a register of baptisms. The Vicar-general's office looks after it.
- Weddings: These are recorded in the Parish where the marriage took place, in their "Matrimonial Register". Contact the Parish Secretary to discuss access.
- Burials: Each cemetery office has a register of burials in that cemetery. The Superintendent of the cemetery would be the person to contact. Proof of relationship to the deceased is required.

On-Line Application Form
DS-160 Electronic Visa Application:
Effective April 30, 2010, individuals applying for a non-immigrant visa at the U.S. Embassy in Port-au-Prince will be required to submit a new electronic application form, known as the DS-160 Non-Immigrant Visa Electronic Application.
The U.S. Department of State developed this new application with a view toward streamlining and simplifying the process for applicants, as well as offering greater privacy protection for applicants.
The new DS-160 application must be completed online. There is no charge and it does not require the use of intermediaries. The visa applicant simply prints out a confirmation sheet with a bar code and brings this to the interview. The bar code allows the Embassy to electronically access the information contained in the DS-160. Thus, the applicant will no longer need to provide a printed application form to the Consular Officer during the visa interview.
Most importantly, this new application form offers several benefits to our visa applicants.
First, the new DS-160 simplifies the application process by replacing the previous forms: DS-156, DS-157, and DS-158. The applicant will not have to worry about which application they need to fill out.
Second, as the information provided in the form DS-160 can only be viewed by the applicant and the Embassy, the new form offers greater privacy. The previous application was printed with personal data and submitted on the day of the interview.
Finally, as personal data will only be viewed electronically at the Embassy or Consulate where the applicant intends to apply, it is recommended that the application be completed at least 48 hours prior to the appointment, making sure to indicate the correct Embassy or Consulate where the appointment will be held. If the application is filled out correctly, the process may be faster for everyone.
It is important to remember that this application, like the previous one, must be completed in full, with accurate information and honesty. If applicants do not answer questions that apply, their applications may be rejected. The new application does not minimize the requirement to provide proof of all economic and social ties outside the United States.
Individuals can access the DS-160 from the Department of State's Consular Electronic Application Center website. All applicants must schedule appointments using our online appointment website.

General works
David Macdonald (ed.), The Encyclopedia of Mammals, rev. ed., 3 vol. (2001), lavishly illustrates mammalian diversity with photographs and colour drawings and also contains numerous sidebar discussions on specific behaviours and conservation issues. Bernhard Grzimek, Grzimek's Encyclopedia of Mammals, 5 vol., trans. from German (1990), is a nontechnical source of information and graphics that also contains tabular data for all species. Ronald M. Nowak, Walker's Mammals of the World, 6th ed., 2 vol. (1999), is a semitechnical work that includes black-and-white photographs of representatives of most living genera.
Educational software containing audio and video recordings of mammals includes National Geographic Society (U.S.), Mammals: A Multimedia Encyclopedia (1990); and Discovery Communications, Inc., Mammals (1999).
Region-specific works
Don E. Wilson and Sue Ruff (eds.), The Smithsonian Book of North American Mammals (1999), contains complete information and colour photographs of all species in North America. Louise H. Emmons and François Feer, Neotropical Rainforest Mammals: A Field Guide, 2nd ed. (1997), describes each of the species found in the tropical forests of Central and South America. Priscilla Barret and David W. Macdonald, Mammals of Europe (2002), is an illustrated field guide that includes distribution maps and describes ways of recognizing species by sight, sound, tracks, and other evidence. Jonathan Kingdon, The Kingdon Field Guide to African Mammals (1997, reprinted with corrections, 2001), provides information on Africa's 1,100 mammalian species. G.B. Corbet and J.E. Hill, The Mammals of the Indomalayan Region: A Systematic Review (1992), treats each of the 1,000-plus species found in both continental and insular Southeast Asia. K.K. Gurung and Raj Singh, Field Guide to the Mammals of the Indian Subcontinent (also published as Mammals of the Indian Subcontinent and Where to Watch Them, 1996), provides information on the region's protected reserves and concisely describes the species found in them. Zhang Yongzu, Distribution of Mammalian Species in China (1997); and Edward Osmond, Animals of Central Asia (1967), are two of the few broad treatments written in English for this part of the world. Ronald Strahan (ed.), Mammals of Australia, rev. ed. (1995, reissued 1998); and Nick Garbutt, Mammals of Madagascar (1999), cover each of these islands' unique and often peculiar fauna.
Advanced works
The most complete classification to the species level is Don E. Wilson and DeeAnn M. Reeder, Mammal Species of the World: A Taxonomic and Geographic Reference, 2nd ed. (1993). The most recent complete classification of mammals to the generic level is Malcolm C. McKenna and Susan K. Bell, Classification of Mammals Above the Species Level (1997). A thorough treatment of the families of living mammals is Sydney Anderson and J. Knox Jones, Jr. (eds.), Orders and Families of Recent Mammals of the World (1984). Widely used textbooks in mammalogy are Terry A. Vaughan, James M. Ryan, and Nicholas J. Czaplewski, Mammalogy, 4th ed. (2000); and George A. Feldhamer et al. (eds.), Mammalogy: Adaptation, Diversity, and Ecology (1999). Scientific journals that publish papers dealing exclusively with mammals are Journal of Mammalogy and Mammalia, both issued quarterly.
Summaries of specialized topics in mammalogy include Virginia Hayssen, Ari van Tienhoven, and Ans van Tienhoven, Asdell's Patterns of Mammalian Reproduction: A Compendium of Species-Specific Data, rev. ed. (1993); Devra G. Kleiman et al. (eds.), Wild Mammals in Captivity: Principles and Techniques (1996); David McFarland (ed.), The Oxford Companion to Animal Behavior (1981; also published as The Oxford Companion to Animal Behaviour, 1981, reprinted with corrections, 1987); John Alcock, Animal Behavior: An Evolutionary Approach, 7th ed. (2001); and Thomas E. Tomasi and Teresa H. Horton (eds.), Mammalian Energetics: Interdisciplinary Views of Metabolism and Reproduction (1992). The evolution and morphology of early mammals are reviewed in Donald E. Savage and Donald E. Russell, Mammalian Paleofaunas of the World (1983); and classic publications on the evolution of major mammalian groups are Alfred Sherwood Romer, Vertebrate Paleontology, 3rd ed.

Dunno, but I do know they just mean water (and no goodies - bring your own gels and jelly babies)
Hi Charley, I hope you'll find the route via this link from the race website:
I think it's 2 laps of that, if you can work it out. See you there!
Fairyclogs - I think swim was the right word. Speaking as a back of the pack person we had Niagara Falls from mile 14 to about mile 22 (well over an hour and a half at my pace) We gave up skirting the puddles eventually (a) they covered the towpath and (b) we weren't going to get any wetter! But yes HUGE HURRAH AND THANK YOU to all those lovely marshals and distributers of food to waterlogged runners who were still there, smiling and in a good mood. Can't praise them enough.
Still trying to work out if I can walk properly, and (possibly) how long it's going to take me to turn 'I'm never doing that again!' into 'Maybe next year' ...
Porridge is a wonderful thing. Off to Wagamama for lunch today where I can load up on noodles without guilt! Definitely feeling nervous ...
I'll look out for you. I don't plan on running in a clingy red frock mind you, but I might risk my Purple Patch running singlet. Alternatively, who knows? Fashion choices ...
And the forecast has improved (ie the temperature has dropped) Things are looking up. G Baker I'm with you - 1st marathon ever. I'll be being very conservative at the back. Just had a very serious deep tissue massage this morning - now covered in bruises, but lots of knots are no longer there! No pain no gain
Not liking the long range forecast. Looks like we might be in for a hot one!
Woo hoo!! Just finished my 20 miler, and can now consider myself to be tapering.
In the spirit of careful tow path prep I ran most of it along the Slough arm of the Grand Union and then up a bit towards Watford before turning round (even managed it to be an out and back with a hill at the end). Need to fine tune my avoidance tactics for swans, dogs and anglers
Didn't see you there g baker, tho I expect you were miles ahead of me. I was just enjoying the fact it felt like a short run(never thought I,d hear myself say that!)
last big run tomorrow, the 20 miler, then tapering, hurrah! Spare time, won,t know what to do with myself.
Totally understand Mel, and I'm just about used to it, really! I'll just miss Mr Blue Sky bouncing through my brain as I cross the finish line. Always puts a spring in my step that one.

EPA: Most U.S. Waters Polluted
March 27, 2013 by UPI - United Press International, Inc.
WASHINGTON (UPI) — More than half of U.S. rivers, streams and other waterways are in too poor of a condition for aquatic life, the Environmental Protection Agency said.
The EPA said most the nation's streams, rivers and other waters were in poor health.
EPA analysis said that 27 percent of the nation's waterways have high levels of nitrogen and 40 percent have high levels of phosphorus. Those chemicals lead to algae blooms that can deprive water of oxygen.
In terms of mercury, potentially harmful to developing nervous systems, the EPA said that more than 13,000 miles of rivers contained fish species with elevated levels in the systems.
For bacteria, about 9 percent of the nation's rivers and streams were considered unsafe for swimming while vegetation, which can help filter out pollutants, was down in about 24 percent of the waters monitored by the EPA.
"The health of our nation's rivers, lakes, bays and coastal waters depends on the vast network of streams where they begin, and this new science shows that America's streams and rivers are under significant pressure," Acting Assistant Water Administrator Nancy Stoner said in a statement.

...social media with a mission: to make important stuff as viral as a video of some idiot surfing off his roof. Here's a piece by The New York Times' David Carr about our first 100 days.
At best, things online are usually either awesome or meaningful, but everything on Upworthy.com has a little of both. Sensational and substantial. Entertaining and enlightening. Shocking and significant.
That's what you can expect here: no empty calories. No pageview-juking slideshows. No right-column sleaze. Just a steady stream of the most irresistibly shareable stuff you can click on without feeling bad about yourself afterwards. Like these:
For more, check out our mission statement from launch, which features an adorable kitten.
We're a mission-driven media company. We're not a newspaper — we'd rather speak truth than appear unbiased. And we're not a political campaign — we're more interested in the powerless versus the powerful than in Democrats versus Republicans.
But we do have a point of view. We're pro-gay-marriage, and we're anti-child-poverty. We think the media is horrible to women, we think climate change is real, and we think the government has a lot to learn from the Internet about efficiency, disruption, and effectiveness.
And then there are dozens of issues where our curators disagree with each other — areas where there's legitimate debate to be had amongst well-meaning people. We try to encourage that debate by curating great pieces of content that represent different sides.
This ragtag group of ruffians.
Basically, "The Daily Show" generation. People who care about what's going on in the world but don't want to be boring about it.
Oh, you're too sweet. You don't need to do anything, but since you asked, the most important thing you can do is to share content from Upworthy.com with everyone you know as often as humanly possible.
Yes! We fact-check all of our content — that means we verify all facts, stats, and claims through major media sources, research papers, or government agencies. Some of what you see on Upworthy may seem unbelievable, but that's why we're sharing it with you, right? Trustworthiness is super-important to us at Upworthy.
But we're human, and occasionally we blow it. (And by blow it we mean let a piece of content get on our page that we think does more harm than good or is factually incorrect.) Whenever that happens, we'll make it right. In most cases, that means the following:
Some video providers, like YouTube, will insert "pre-roll" ads that run before you're able to watch a video. Upworthy has no control over what ads are shown and receives absolutely no revenue from those ads.
Our goal is to foster a community of people who are focused on spreading ideas within their existing groups of friends on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Pinterest, and wherever else. So if you've got something burning to say about one of the videos or graphics you see on Upworthy, share it on social media and start the conversation there.

If you want to suggest content, tweet it at us (@Upworthy). For media inquiries, email email@example.com. If you want to give us feedback on the site, email us at email@example.com. We're a small team, so we can't promise we'll get back to you, but we will read everything (as long as it's not sent by a spam bot).

The shrimp salad was ok, but the mayo was overpowering. I would halve the mayo and increase the salsa to give it more flavor. I didn't try the corn cups.
Corn Cups with Salsa Shrimp Salad
Funpuff Posted: 09/09/09
saranac Posted: 09/20/09
I followed the directions to the T for the corn cups, but when I tried to put the rolled out dough in the muffin tins they fell apart! I will try again, and maybe some one can help me find out what I did wrong, I never worked with masa harina before so maybe I did something wrong. The Salad is good, but I would use more salsa verde next time.
momcancook Posted: 12/20/09
So, I have to explain this rating. The corn cups themselves were terrible. They completely fell apart. So, I used uncooked shrimp, basted with butter and sprinkled with a little chipotle chile powder and baked til cooked. Chopped up the shrimp (I used 4x) and added it to the recipe doubled, used sour cream in place of mayo. Didn't last at the party. Had to make more for myself. Great with tortilla chips, or some ate it with a fork as a salad.

Grivet Monkey
Chlorocebus aethiops
Life Span
Wild: 17 years
Captivity: 30 years
17-19.5 in body
Average Weight
6-9 lbs
Group Name
Group Size
Name of Young
- Grivet monkeys are most active during the day or are diurnal. During the day they spend their time on the ground looking for food. At night they sleep in the trees for safety.
- Much of their time is spent grooming, playing, play fighting, and eating. They are omnivores and eat a wide range of things such as fruit, seeds, eggs, insects, and some small animals such as lizards.
- The availability of a water source is of particular importance during the dry season. They often live near water so they can drink daily.
- They have special alarm calls for different types of predators so the group members can react properly. If a grivet monkey sees a leopard and makes the corresponding call, then the rest of the group hides in the trees. If one makes the call for an eagle, then the others will hide in dense brush.
Did You Know?
They have cheek pouches for storing food. This is so they can gather food and bring it to a safer area to eat. They have many predators including snakes, leopards, lions, large birds of prey, and even humans.

There have been some roadway safety issues that resulted from the lack of maintenance due to the butterfly. Obviously the butterfly that has a life span of about 2 weeks is much more important than human life.
There are many other issues involved in this that people need to research for themselves.
Amazing that government can find things like butterflies to spend such a significant amount of money on, yet families like ours are struggling daily to get things like brakes for our vehicles and gas.
Baffled, I couldn't agree more. I'd like to see horse trails to everywhere. The way I see it, what we have now is extremely restrictive of our supposed freedom to (as they used to say in the old southwest) move, and/roam about the country.
Personally, I'd always moved to where the work was. Just curious, is it South Dakota ..or.. North Dakota that currently has the lowest unemployment numbers in the U.S.? Just a thought, bewildered.
How would that action make anything better for you, let alone for anyone else?

Gentle reader, the current powder keg in Ukraine will, no doubt, in the fullness of time teach many lessons, but one which we doubt we will hear much about, but which could well be the most important in the long run for these United States, bears upon the excuse under which Putin claims the right to over-run and seize his neighbors' lands.
She appreciates my sense of humor.
She listens to my puns with anewed interest.
And she likes — yes, LIKES! — my singing.
I introduced Roane County News readers to my baby girl with those words the week I returned to work from maternity leave.
Scribbled on a yellow legal pad only hours after Amie was born, those words spilled on and on as I watched my tiny dark-haired creation slumber beside my bed.
I was in awe. She was so small. And my love for her was so enormous.
Our friend and neighbour, Larry Alford died on Friday, 28 March, 2014. Larry had fought a long and courageous battle for some long time and died way too soon, inasmuch as he was only three days short of his 71st birthday on April First.
Aiding him, assisting him, and nursing him, was his beloved wife and helpmeet, Ruby.
Gentle reader, we have several items we hope to mention in this column, although, as the Roman writer opined: Ars longa, vita breva, tempus tugit, roughly translated, art is long, life is short, and time is fleeting, so it is sometimes with a column, so we don't have time or space to cover all we would like to.
Gentle reader, before we get started on today's topics, we would like to mention to you a brief thing we heard on National Public Radio's Morning Edition on Tuesday, a week ago, at approximately 7:40 a.m.
The segment was about the up-coming Louisiana Senate campaign, and specifically about Sen. Mary Landrieu and the effect her vote for Obamacare might have on the outcome.
Few of our readers are as long in the tooth as the old curmudgeon, thus they will not share his recollection of events and conditions over the past seven decades, so it is not amiss for him to point out a few things he has observed on the political scene in that time period.
For instance, our Republican friends have always had a pretty universal theme, that all loyal members are expected to voice constantly and consistently.
Gentle reader: As so often happens when we come to organize the items we wish to communicate about with you, this week's topics seem all to center around one or more of our Republican friends.
In fact, in each of the subjects which I hope to write about, if enough room is available, one or more Republicans plays a major role.
Well, Gentle Reader, here we all are at the beginning of a New Year — 2014, Anno Domini, and so it is fitting to start out this first column of this new year with our wish for you and yours of a Happy New Year.
May it be healthy and profitable, as well as happy.
As we are approaching the end of this Year of Our Lord Two Thousand and Thirteen, we would be remiss were we not to remind all of our fellow kinsmen who rightfully claim descent from John Ladd that this year marks the three hundred and sixtieth anniversary of his arrival on the shores of America, in the colony of Virginia, a short time prior to the 7th day of October, 1653.

Dragons Football Preparing for 2010 Season
The Pine City Dragons are preparing hard for the 2010 football season. Head Coach Jared Polzine says his players, who have just started their second week of practice, have set their sights on a section championship. That would be a first for Pine City's football program in the history of the school.
Coach Polzine is putting a lot of faith in senior QB Nate Wendorf and senior RB Adam Olson, both returning starters. At practice Wendorf appeared polished in his release, and exhibits a smooth delivery with nice touch. Olson has an impressive mix of power and speed, and fellow teammates had a hard time bringing him down during drills.
The Dragons will begin the year with three straight home games, including the season opener against Proctor on Friday, Sept. 3.
Head Coach Jared Polzine can be seen here taking a moment after drills to teach the boys some fundamentals.
