On Sunday, September 21st, just days before a landmark climate summit at the UN, Avaaz members around the world are taking part in a People's Climate March. World leaders don't believe enough of us care about climate change, that's why they're still not yet rising to the challenge of saving our planet. But on September 21, we have an unprecedented chance to prove them wrong, with the largest climate mobilisation in history.

Written By ZmannLoveland, Loveland, CO on Saturday, July 14, 2012 I was wanting a camera that has a big zoom but can still fit in my pocket. This dose both. That's it. Pics were fuzzy. Camera is really slow between pictures. Zoom was loud focus was slow. I had high hopes for this camera but was disappointed. Pros: Nice zoom Cons: A lot! 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Perfect Camera for the Ride! Written By LisaM, Los Angeles, CA on Tuesday, June 12, 2012 Although we have several DSLR cameras, none was convenient for one specific purpose: motorcycle riding. We have found this perfect camera in the Nikon Coolpix S9300. It fits in a jacket pocket and is ready for action in a split second. The camera is small, but not "dainty," and (once the gloves are off...) my husband has no difficulty in composing and capturing the shots he wants -- with amazing results. We are enormously pleased with this purchase, and highly recommend the S9300. Crutchfield's swift delivery and excellent customer service standards are also greatly appreciated. Pros: Easy to learn (and therefore actually use!), terrific zoom capability without loss of clarity, not too small for large hands, solidly constructed. Cons: We're looking for a screen protector for the "exposed" monitor, as we're worried about scratches to that surface. Other than that -- it's awesome! 6 out of 6 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Very good small camera with lots of capability Written By Ken, HSV on Tuesday, May 22, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Since Canon G7 had problem with lens, I bought this camera for my wife for early Mother's day. It works very well with photos and movies. It is compact so it is easy to carry and put is in pocket and/or purse. On the other hand, it is not so easy to shoot photos and movies. Anyway we are happy with this camera so far. Pros: Compact, good IQ and movie with GPS and other advanced capabilities. Cons: No raw, no manual setting, too small to handle. 3 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

The LCD monitor has approximately 98% horizontal and vertical coverage in the shooting mode and approximately 100% coverage in playback mode. There is no separate viewfinder on the camera. Image Sensor: The Coolpix S9300 features a 1/2.3" CMOS image sensor with a total pixel count of approximately 16.79-million pixels. The effective pixel count is 16.0-million. Optics: The Coolpix S9300 digital camera uses a NIKKOR ED glass lens for superb image quality. Every aspect of the lens manufacturing process is controlled by Nikon. The Nikkor ED lens is designed for the specific camera and image sensor combination. The Coolpix S9300 uses a 18x wide-angle optical zoom lens, that is equivalent to a 25-450mm lens in 35mm photography. Coupled with the 4x digital zoom, the camera's total zoom capability is 72x. The angle of view is equivalent to that of an approximately 1800mm lens (35mm format). Vibration Reduction: The Nikon Coolpix S9300 offers an optical Vibration Reduction (VR) Stabilization System. Vibration Reduction reduces blurring caused by camera shake when shooting. Slight hand movements causes blurred photos, especially when shooting at slow shutter speeds or when zoomed in. The camera utilizes lens shift technology to reduce the effect of camera shake. File Formats: The Coolpix S9300 records still images in JPEG format. 3D photos are stored in MPO format. HD and SD movies are recorded in MOV format (Video: MPEG-4 AVC/H.264, Audio: AAC stereo). You have a choice of seven still image size options and five movie options: Still Images: 16M: 4608 x 3456 (high quality 1:4 compression ratio) 16M: 4608 x 3456 (standard quality 1:8 compression ratio) 8M: 3264 x 2448 4M: 2272 x 1704 2M: 1600 x 1200 VGA: 640 x 480 16:9 12M: 4608 x 2592 Movies (Frame Rate 30 fps): HD 1080p: 1920 x 1080 (Bit rate: 14.7 Mbps) HD 1080p: 1920 x 1080 (Bit rate: 12.3 Mbps) HD 720p: 1280 x 720 (Bit rate: 6.1 Mbps) iFrame 540: 960 x 540 (Bit rate: 20.8 Mbps) VGA: 640 x 480 (Bit rate: 2.9 Mbps) Note: The maximum movie length for a single movie is 29 minutes, or 4 GB file size. Built-in Memory: The camera has a built-in 26 MB internal memory for storing still images and movies with sound. Using the internal memory, you can record two still images at the highest resolution or 14 seconds of HD video at the highest resolution and bit rate. Recording Media: In addition to the built-in memory, images can be recorded onto SD, SDHC, or SDXC Memory cards. When an SD Memory card is inserted in the camera, the images are automatically recorded onto the card. When no card is inserted, the images automatically record to the internal memory. The camera can support 2 GB SD cards, SDHC cards from 4 GB to 32 GB, and SDXC cards of 64 GB and 128 GB. 3D Photos: The Coolpix S9300 can take 3D photos that are viewable on a 3D-compatible TV or monitor. Images are recorded at a size of 1920 x 1080. Recording a 3D image is a two-step process. After taking the initial picture (left eye image), a second picture (right eye image) is taken automatically by moving the camera horizontally to the right until the subject is aligned with the guide on the monitor. To play back 3D images, you will need to connect the camera to the TV via a 3D-compatible HDMI cable. Only the initial (left eye) image can be viewed in the camera's monitor. Shooting Modes: You can choose one of the following shooting modes: Auto Mode: A "point-and-shoot" mode with some user adjustments to suit the shooting conditions and type of shot you want to capture. Scene Mode: There are four positions on the mode dial for Scene Modes. You can select Scene Auto Selector, Night Landscape, Backlighting, or Scene. When Scene is selected on the mode dial, you can choose from one of the following scenes in the menu: Portrait, Landscape, Sports, Night Portrait, Party/Indoor, Beach, Snow, Sunset, Dusk/Dawn, Close Up, Food, Museum, Fireworks Show, Black & White Copy, Easy Panorama, Pet Portrait, and 3D Photography. Special Effects Mode: You can choose from the following six effects: Soft, Nostalgic Sepia, High-contrast Monochrome, High Key, Low Key, and Selective Color. Smart Portrait: When the camera detects a smiling face, you can take a picture automatically without pressing the shutter-release button (smile timer). The Skin Softening option can smooth the skin tones in faces. Continuous Shooting: Choose one of the following one of the modes below: Continuous H: Takes up to 7 pictures at about 6.9 frames per second while the shutter button is held down. Continuous L: Takes up to 6 images at a rate of about 2 fps while the shutter release is held down. Pre-shooting Cache: Makes it easy to capture perfect moments by saving images from before the shutter release button was pressed all the way. Captures up to 5 frames at a rate up to 10.6 fps. Continuous H 120: Each time the shutter release button is pressed all the way, 50 frames are captured at a speed of about 1/120 sec or faster. (Image size: 640 x 480) Continuous H 60: Each time the shutter release button is pressed all the way, 25 frames are captured at a speed of about 1/60 sec or faster. (Image size: 1280 x 960) Best Shot Selector: Camera captures up to 10 images while the shutter release is held down, and the sharpest image in the series is selected and saved. Multi-shot 16: Camera takes 16 shots at about 30 fps and arranges them in a single image of 2560 x 1920. Self-timer: The camera is equipped with a 10 second for self-portraits and a 2 second timer to prevent camera shake caused by pressing the shutter release button. In addition, the camera can use face detection to detect human faces, and automatically release the shutter when a smile is detected (Smile Timer). AF Area Mode: You can select between the following AF Area Modes to determine where the camera focuses. Face Priority: When the camera recognizes a face (front view only), the camera will focus on the face automatically. The camera can recognize up to 9 faces depending on shooting and exposure mode. This is the default setting. Auto: The camera automatically selects the focus area (up to 9) containing the subject closest to the camera. Manual: You can manually select one of 99 focus areas in the monitor. This method is handy when the intended subject is not positioned in the center of the frame, and is relatively still. Center: The camera focuses on the subject in the center of the frame. Subject Tracking: For taking pictures of moving subjects. The camera moves the focus area automatically to track the registered subject within the frame. Macro Mode: Macro mode is used for taking pictures of objects as close as 1.6". This feature is best for taking close-up pictures of flowers or other small subjects. Focus Lock: The Focus Lock feature is used to focus on off-centered subjects in the frame while shooting in Center AF mode. AF-Assist Illuminator: If lighting is poor, the AF-assist illuminator may light to assist the focus operation when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. The illuminator has a range of about 9'-10" at the maximum wide-angle position and 6'-6" at the maximum telephoto position. You can turn this function on or off. Blink Warning Function: The Blink Warning function is available when you are shooting in Face Priority mode. When the camera detects that one or more human subjects may have blinked, the blink warning screen is displayed. The subject is framed by a yellow border, allowing you to check the picture and decide whether or not to take another picture. Exposure Compensation: You can alter the exposure from the value suggested by the camera, making pictures brighter or darker. You can adjust the exposure from -2.0 to +2.0 EV in 1/3 EV steps. ISO Settings: Sensitivity is the measure of how quickly the camera reacts to light. The higher the sensitivity, the less light needed to make an exposure. The camera features the following ISO settings: Auto: Sensitivity is set to ISO 125 when there is sufficient lighting, and raises the sensitivity to a maximum of ISO 1600 when lighting is dim. Fixed Range Auto: Select from two ranges in which the camera automatically sets the sensitivity: ISO 125-400 or ISO 125 to 800. Manual: Sensitivity is locked at the set value: ISO 125, 200, 400, 800, 1600, or 3200. White Balance: You can set the White Balance to Auto, Daylight, Incandescent, Fluorescent, Cloudy, or Flash. You can also choose Preset White Balance and use a neutral-colored object as a reference to set the white balance under unusual lighting conditions. Built-in Flash: The Coolpix S9300 has a built-in flash with a range of 1'-8" to 16' (Wide angle) and 5' to 9'-10" (Telephoto). You can choose from the following flash modes: Auto: Flash fires automatically when lighting is poor. Auto with Red-eye Reduction: Pre-flash fires before main flash to reduce red-eye effect. Flash Off: Flash will not fire, even when lighting is poor. Fill Flash: Flash will fire whenever a picture is taken. Slow Sync: Auto flash combined with slow shutter speeds. In-Camera Red-Eye Fix: If the camera detects red-eye after the pre-flash has fired, advanced red-eye reduction processing is used to further reduce red-eye, slightly increasing the time required before the next picture can be taken. AF Modes: When shooting still images or movies you can choose between two auto-focus modes: Single AF: The camera focuses when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway and locks at this position during recording. Full-time AF: The camera constantly adjusts focus, even when the shutter-release button is not pressed. Voice Recording: Audio voice memos for pictures can be recorded over the camera's built-in microphone and played back over the unit's built-in speaker. Memos can be up to 20 seconds in length, and are stored as WAV files. Global Positioning System (GPS): The Coolpix S9300 is equipped with a GPS receiver, which, when enabled, encodes time and positioning data into your photos. All your image and movie files are geotagged, providing a visual travelogue that pinpoints the places you have been. These files can be integrated with Nikon's my Picturetown photo sharing site, Google Earth, and Nikon ViewNX2 software (supplied) to display maps showing where the photo was taken. Play, Edit and Print Functions Copy: You can internally copy images and voice recordings between the camera's internal memory and an inserted SD card. Slide Show Playback: View pictures in the internal memory or on the memory card in an automatic slide show with 2, 3, 5, or 10 seconds between pictures. If desired, you can loop the slideshow so it will continuously play. Maximum slide show duration is 30 minutes without operation. Thumbnail Playback: During playback, you can view multiple thumbnail images (4, 9, 16, or 72) at a time. While these "contact sheets" are displayed, you can use the multi-selector to highlight individual pictures. Highlighted pictures can be deleted, if desired. Calendar Display: This feature displays a calendar allowing you to select and view pictures taken on the same date. Playback Zoom: During playback, you can enlarge a still image up to 10x. Once the image is zoomed, you can use the multi-selector to scroll around to non-visible portions of the image. You can record a new picture of the cropped image by pressing the shutter button. Rotate Image: Recorded pictures can be rotated 90-degrees clockwise or counter-clockwise on the unit's LCD screen. Editing Picture: You can use the Coolpix S9300 to edit recorded pictures in-camera and store them as separate files. You can choose from the following editing functions: Quick Retouch: Quick Retouch can be used to easily create retouched copies in which contrast and saturation have been enhanced. D-Lighting: D-Lighting can be used to brighten dark or backlit subjects. While playing back an image, you can select the D-Lighting function, apply it, and save the corrected image without harming the properly exposed areas of the image. Skin Softening: The camera recognizes faces in pictures and creates a copy with softer facial skin tones. Filter Effects: You can apply the following effects: Soft, Selective color, Cross Screen, Fisheye, Miniature Effect, and Painting. Small Picture (Resizing): You can create a small copy of a recorded image. The copy will be stored as a JPEG file with a compression ratio of 1:16. You can choose from the following sizes: 640 x 480 (suited to television playback), 320 x 240 (suited to display on web pages), or 160 x 120 (suitable for email attachments). Crop: Create a copy containing only the portion visible in the monitor. Multi-Language Menu: You can choose from 29 different menu display languages including English, Spanish or French. Printing Pictures: You can print pictures stored in the internal memory or on the memory card by using the Print Set option in the playback menu. Using DPOF (Digital Print Order Form), you can designate which images to print, and how many copies to print. Pictures can be printed as followed: Printer or Photo Lab: insert the memory card into a printer, or take the memory card to a digital photo lab (images stored in the internal memory need to be transferred to a memory card prior to printing). PictBridge-compatible Printer: connect the camera to a PictBridge-compatible printer via USB cable Transferring to Computer: transfer the images to a computer before printing them via USB Battery Information Power Requirements: The Coolpix S9300 is powered by a supplied rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery (EN-EL12).

The supplied rechargeable battery will last up to approximately 200 shots or 50 minutes of HD movie recording on one charge. A fully-exhausted battery charges in about 3 hours 50 minutes with the EH-69P, or 2 hours 30 minutes with the optional MH-65. Auto Off: When the camera is operated on battery power, the Auto Off mode will automatically turn off the monitor to reduce the drain on the batteries if no operations are performed for the length of time specified in the Auto Off menu. The time limit for the Auto Off mode can be set to 30 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes or 30 minutes. Inputs and Outputs Notes HDMI: The Coolpix S9300 is equipped with a mini-HDMI (Type C) output, allowing you to connect the camera to an HDTV. An optional mini-HDMI-to-HDMI cable is required. The camera's HDMI output can be set to Auto, 480p, 720p or 1080i. USB/Audio-Video Output: The camera features a single proprietary jack for connecting the supplied AV or USB cable.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Product reviews from the Crutchfield Labs Small touches make the difference Written by Ralph Graves, Staff Writer - Creative, on 7/20/2012 10:42:00 AM Sometimes it's the little details that impress me the most. The S9300 has a navigation wheel with macro, time delay, flash, and brightness positioned around it. As with other cameras, you press the wheel next to one of those four icons to get into the menu settings. But what's different is that the wheel is a scroll wheel. Once you're inside the menu, you can quickly select options by turning the wheel rather then repeatedly pressing it. Another nice touch is the rubber strip embedded in the back of the camera. It's positioned exactly where your thumb naturally falls to grip the camera. Rather than trying to hold onto a smooth case, my thumb rested on the non-skid rubber. Which meant I didn't have to exert much pressure to hold onto the camera, which in turn meant my hand didn't tire as quickly. A small detail, but a welcome one. What are the Labs? Sorry, the Nikon Coolpix S9300 is no longer available. Looking for a similar item? Shop all Point-and-shoot Cameras Or, you can still...

City Credit Ratings
City Credit or Bond Ratings
A credit rating is independent opinion on the general creditworthiness of an obligor, or the creditworthiness of an obligor with respect to a particular debt security or other financial obligation. Over the years credit ratings have achieved wide investor acceptance as convenient tools for differentiating credit quality.
Credit ratings are forward-looking opinions about credit risk. Credit ratings express the agency's opinion about the ability and willingness of an issuer, such as a corporation or state or city government, to meet its financial obligations in full and on time.
Credit ratings can also speak to the credit quality of an individual debt issue, such as a corporate note, a municipal bond or a mortgage-backed security, and the relative likelihood that the issue may default.
Ratings are provided by organizations such as Standard and Poor's, Moody's, and Fitch, commonly called credit rating agencies, which specialize in evaluating credit risk.
Each agency applies its own methodology in measuring creditworthiness and uses a specific rating scale to publish its ratings opinions. Typically, ratings are expressed as letter grades using different scales – for more of each scale, please following the links below:

Downloaded the Stieg Larsson trilogy and just finished e-reading this first one. Although it was pretty good, there were some unforeseen twists and turns, and the characters were interesting, I didn't think it quite lived up to the glowing advanced billing. I'm definitely keen on seeing what they did with this heavily promoted movie and would appreciate reading feedback from anyone who's gonna see it.
The author, a journalist, just like one of his protagonists, died at 50, climbing up 7 flights of stairs to his office in Stockholm because the elevator was down. His works were written leisurely as a self-indulgence and published posthumously. If anyone's interested:

When it dries completely, the skin or hair is washed with water to reveal the dyed color.
Asian brides are not complete until they have applied Henna on their hands and feet.
In this instructable, I will show you how to apply Henna on hands and make different designs with it.
What will you need:
Henna(mehndi) cone (pencil cone is better)
A printed copy of Henna design
A transparent Glass sheet (you may use clear plastic sheet instead)
Tissue paper
Glitter cone (optional)
A4 sheet or plain piece of paper
Things to Remember
Nowadays the henna cone contains some chemicals, so if you are allergic or your skin is sensitive, then check a little amount of henna on your palm before making the whole design. If it gives you itcy or burning feeling, do not use it. Sometimes, it happens when the henna is expired so make sure to use the fresh one.
Also, if you have done waxing on an area where you are going to apply henna, do not do it just after waxing. Wait a day or two, as skin pores will be opened and henna contains some chemical. This situation may cause damage or irritation on your skin.
Henna gives different color on different skins. On palms, the color is darkest, near to black sometimes. On the other side of hand, the color is much lighter and then on arm it gets lighter. The color comes best after one or two days. You will notice the difference of the color everyday, first it goes darker, then after few days, it goes lighter and finally its gone!

Great Lakes Legacy Act
Restoring the Centerpieces of Our Coastal Communities
The Great Lakes are the foundation of an economy that provides everything from the cars we drive, to the food we eat and water we drink. Their shorelines supply an essential quality of life for residents and visitors alike, abundant fresh water for cities and water-dependent industries, a maritime highway for raw materials and finished goods, and a thriving tourism industry based on world-class boating, fishing, beaches and other recreational opportunities. Millions of dollars in revenue come to the communities around the basin that help support some 35 million people who call the Great Lakes home with more than 1.5 million jobs and $62 billion in annual wages.
Investing in the Great Lakes
Economic Benefits
The direct economic benefits of restoring the Great Lakes total at least $50 billion. Restoration will:
- Lead to direct economic benefits of $6.5 billion to $11.8 billion from tourism, fishing, and recreation.
- Directly raise coastal property values $12 billion to $19 billion by remediating Areas of Concern (AOCs).
- Reduce costs to municipalities by $50 million to $125 million.
- Yield a $2–$3 return for every $1 spent.
- Make the region more attractive to business and workers.
From the Brookings Institution, "Healthy Waters, Strong Economy: The Benefits of Restoring the Great Lakes Ecosystem," September 2007
Contaminated sediment in the 30 Areas of Concern, together with degraded former industrial sites, or brownfields, are major impediments to communities struggling to revitalize their waterfronts with new commercial enterprises, real estate and recreational amenities that can boost tourism.
Sediment is most often contaminated with toxic chemicals such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), heavy metals like mercury, and oil, grease or other petroleum byproducts. Before modern pollution laws went into effect, these pollutants settled into sediment at the bottom of rivers and harbors that flow into the lakes, where they continue to threaten public health, contaminate fish and wildlife, and make waterfronts unusable to our coastal communities.
Despite the complexity and expense of cleaning up the Areas of Concern, many states and local communities are seeing success from their past efforts. Federal funds are available to support cleanup efforts and help communities fulfill the promise of economic revitalization, increased property values and an improved quality of life. Under the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and other federal agencies are prioritizing cleanups in the 30 AOCs.
Partnering to Revitalize Waterfront Economies
Great Lakes Areas of Concern
In the 1980s, the United States and Canada identified 43 highly degraded shoreline areas along the Great Lakes, including 26 on the U.S. side and 17 in Canada, with five shared between the two countries. Known as "Areas of Concern" or "AOCs," these areas are the focus of comprehensive cleanup efforts involving federal agencies, the Great Lakes states, municipalities and other partners. The most common problem affecting these toxic hotspots is contaminated sediment from past industrial practices. Today, 30 AOCs exist wholly in the U.S. or are shared with Canada.
Under the first priority of the GLRI, the Great Lakes Legacy Act provides federal funding to accelerate the pace of contaminated sediment remediation in AOCs. The GLRI's Legacy Act has been a tremendous success. Since its passage, U.S. EPA has invested some $288 million to clean up contaminated sediment in the AOCs, of which $119 million has been leveraged from nonfederal sponsors. This work has resulted in cleanups at 10 sites, with four additional actions under way. More than 1.3 million cubic yards of contaminated sediments have been remediated to date. The Legacy Act program has also been used to evaluate 23 additional sites, at full federal expense, to characterize the extent of sediment contamination and position them for future cleanups.
A key reason for the success of the GLRI's Legacy Act is its ability to enable strong partnerships with states, federal agencies, municipalities and businesses through a collaborative approach to cleaning up contaminated sites. For this reason, some 34 companies from various industries have contributed more than $50 million to Legacy Act cleanups, providing nearly half of all nonfederal contributions to date.
Completed cleanups have been a springboard for local communities to convert areas that were once a detriment to economic growth into valuable waterfront economic assets. These communities are transforming former toxic hotspots into amenities and building a foundation for future growth.
How Communities Can Take Advantage of the GLRI's Legacy Act
Accelerating On-the-Ground Actions
The GLRI's Legacy Act was a response to frustrations over the slow pace of cleaning up contaminated sediments in Areas of Concern—or toxic hotspots—across the Great Lakes. This program provides an unparalleled opportunity to reinvest in the future of valuable shoreline properties. Many cleanup opportunities remain, and with support from the Great Lakes states, local leaders, industries, and other partners to secure nonfederal matching funds, more communities can realize a similar return on investment and leverage the full economic potential of their waterfront areas.
Advantages of the Legacy Act
The Legacy Act focuses on projects and achieving efficient and effective results:
- Aligns partners in risk/benefit decisions
- Focuses on getting work done
- Provides a quick process
- Saves money by allowing for timely field decisions
- Integrates remediation and restoration
How it Works
The Legacy Act requires that at least 35 percent of project costs be provided by a nonfederal sponsor, with U.S. EPA providing up to 65 percent. Nonfederal sponsors must also cover 100 percent of the project's operation and maintenance costs. The nonfederal contribution may include in-kind services from a nonfederal sponsor, or funds or services provided under a settlement agreement or judicial consent decree. However, funds provided as part of a unilateral administrative order or court order cannot be used as the nonfederal cost share.
Approaches for Generating Nonfederal Cost Share
U.S. EPA's rules for administering the program allow for projects to be proposed by a variety of nonfederal sponsors, including entities that may bear some legal responsibility for the pollution being cleaned up. Several different approaches can be used to generate the cost share:
Linking waterfront land revitalization and sediment cleanup efforts
An investor (such as a port authority or developer) provides nonfederal match for a Legacy Act cleanup associated with a waterfront revitalization project. The investor benefits when cleaning up the contaminated site increases the value of, and potential revenues from, an adjacent site. Studies show significant potential for economic revitalization associated with contaminated sediment remediation.
Combining brownfield revitalization and contaminated sediment remediation
Activities from a nonfederal source to restore a brownfield site can be used as match for a Legacy Act cleanup associated with that site. By recognizing the connection between the upland and aquatic environments, this would be considered a more "complete" restoration effort.
Establishing public-private partnerships
Private entities are generally more amenable to entering into a Legacy Act project agreement if a public entity is a partner as well. This lends more credibility to the effort and generates support from a wider variety of partners.
Establishing a nonfederal coalition
Local entities can establish a coalition under the auspices of a not-for-profit organization to provide a venue for generating nonfederal match and coordinating cleanup efforts. This coalition could consist of industry, civic organizations, municipalities and academia. This allows for effective communication as it brings different perspectives and expertise to a potential project.
State bond programs
Bond programs can be used for the nonfederal match required for cleanups conducted under the Legacy Act. Michigan's Clean Michigan Initiative bond program included $25 million that has been used to leverage millions in federal cleanup funds.
In-kind services
Project partners provide in-kind services as part of meeting their nonfederal match. These services can include activities like:
- values of land, easements or rights-of-way for constructing or operating and maintaining the project;
- staff time for individuals who work on the Legacy Act project;
- construction materials or equipment usage for the associated project, and;
- design or engineering services that are part of the project.
Using money or in-kind services provided under a settlement agreement or judicial consent decree
Work conducted under a settlement agreement in an AOC that addresses the area's environmental problems, including contaminated sediments, can be counted as a match for Legacy Act projects.
Using Clean Water State Revolving Funds
Under the Clean Water State Revolving Fund program, states provide a 20 percent match to U.S. EPA funds. Usually these funds are used to build or improve wastewater infrastructure, but they can also be used for nonpoint source projects as long as they are identified in the state's nonpoint source management plan under Section 319 of the Clean Water Act. While the grant funds from U.S. EPA and the required 20 percent state match are federal funds, loan repayments, earned interest and proceeds from state bonds are considered nonfederal funds. These nonfederal funds can be used as match for Legacy Act projects.

The generous question contrasts sharply with the intimidating helmet of the voice's owner, forcing Nik to consider his answer even longer than he usually would. What interest could this Ubese possibly have in mopping floors? he wonders while slowly and deliberately replacing the dirty mop into its bucket, causing it to spill over as the micro-repulsors attempt to compensate. Well, we might as well have some fun with it, he decides.
"Sure, pal, that would be great," Nik says with a cautious smile. Wiping his hands on his jumpsuit, he leads his new assistant over to his cart, which hovers nearby. "You can do my favorite part, waxing!" he says with a smile, reaching into the cart to retrieve an unmarked can and another rag, handing them to the Ubese. "Just follow along behind me," he says, retrieving his mop, grinning to himself as he turns away.
"The name's Nep, Nik Nep. I've been hear a while. You plan on staying long?" he says, doing his best to at least be friendly before his mark discovers he's been fooled.

Discussion continued at Creston School Board meeting Monday, when the board decided to build the new bus garage at the former Area Education Agency site west of Creston High School.
The former AEA site was destroyed in the tornado last April.
Boardmembers Ron Dunphy and Rich Flynn explained their points of view using a map set up on an overhead projection of the high school and elementary/middle school campus.
Current issues
At the current site north of the high school, the issue of safety is on many minds. The road in front of the original bus barn caused problems because it was difficult to see around the curve, and could have caused accidents.
"In my mind, from the time this discussion started, it was about safety ... and I don't see that we're going to fix that safety problem at the AEA building when we can improve it here (at the current site)," said Dunphy.
Dunphy suggested moving the building 20 feet west of the original site, or possibly south, because the original infrastructure is still there, except sewer.
At a special board meeting in November, Dunphy discussed what it would take to build the garage at the AEA site.
"First of all, I don't think we have a clue what it's going to take to prepare that site," Dunphy said. "And if we put the bus barn there it's not just about preparing 300 feet of depth to place that building, we're talking about extending access to it clear over to our property ... I don't know that it works with the AEA, but my thought is no, don't use it."
AEA issues
At the former AEA site, located at 1405 S. Lincoln St., there are many issues.
First, the building must meet fire codes by having fire walls built within it. Second, a wash bay for buses is needed to keep buses clean and prevent safety issues.
Just as important as safety are the aesthetics of the school campus.
"The first time after the tornado I was working at the high school on one of the projects that Gary Briley asked me to do," said Flynn, "and I looked up towards our new (elementary/middle school) building and (said), 'Wow, that is neat.'"
Flynn said he would like to see the bus barn moved to the former AEA site for safety reasons and because he likes seeing the school campus open.
Currently, some buses go north to the elementary/middle school in the afternoon while the rest go south to the high school. In the morning and afternoon, however, all the buses must make an extra trip through the high school parking lot to reach the bus barn. Moving the bus barn would cut back on 13 buses driving through the high school lot twice a day.
Other suggestions
There were other suggestions as well, such as purchasing the land for sale surrounding the elementary/middle school or trading land with Southwestern Community College. Neither of those options were attractive to the boardmembers.
Dunphy suggested moving the building slightly west or south of the original site to improve safety at the curb, while maintaining the infrastructure.
Making a final decision was getting down to the wire for the Creston School Board in terms of cost and time.
"Until we pick out a site and say we're going here, or here, or where we're going, we really don't know what it's going to cost us," said Flynn.
Creston Schools interim Superintendent Chuck Scott said he spoke with Tom Stockdale, Vice President of Estimating and Pre-Construction with TC3, and Stockdale explained that after a decision has been made, the construction company will need two months for drawings and bid documents and to get bids back in, and then to expect six months for construction.
Money talk
Creston Schools will receive $400,000 from insurance and will have to pay the remaining amount for the building.
The bus barn will cost $70,000 to build at the AEA site. It will also cost $230,000 for the building to be in an east/west orientation, or $297,000 in a north/south orientation.
To place the garage at the original site would have cost $157,000.
"That $70,000 is in addition to the metal building as described and that we've looked at for a long time," said Dunphy.
Dunphy said the $70,000 would include things such as building a masonry wall, utilities and asphault removal.
Boardmember Rick Fyock motioned to locate the bus garage at the former AEA site, then ammended his motion to include an east/west orientation of the building.
Flynn seconded Fyock's motion.
The board voted and the motion carried with a 3-1 vote. Dunphy voted no.
In other Creston School Board news:
• Board policies 6.42, 6.49, 6.50 and 6.26 are all approved.
• Early retirement was approved for Marilyn Bohnker, elementary vocal music; Cheryl Crall, seventh-grade reading; Vickie Green, third grade; Sandy Harris, family and consumer science; and Larry Otten, Creston Middle School principal. All board members except Dunphy voted yes. According to Dunphy, "I don't believe in enticing people with money to retire."
• Action for building security was discussed, but nothing was voted on.
• Technology update was discussed, but nothing will be presented until March.
• It was suggested to add the position of special populations director at the elementary/middle school. The suggestion was informational and will be discussed more fully at the next meeting.

Glendale, AZ (Sports Network) - Mike Smith posted 20 saves to lead the Phoenix Coyotes to a 2-1 win over the Dallas Stars on Saturday.
Shane Doan and Rob Klinkhammer each scored a goal for the Coyotes, who snapped a two-game slide.
Jaromir Jagr scored the only goal for the Stars, who had won three of four coming into the contest. Kari Lehtonen allowed two goals on 21 shots.
Phoenix got the only goal of the first period with 3:01 to play in the frame. Oliver Ekman-Larsson sent the disc from the right circle to the low right side where Antoine Vermette immediately passed it back out front and Doan one-timed it in.
The Coyotes made it a 2-0 game 7:31 into the second when the puck came out from behind the net to the right side where Boyd Gordon fired a pass over to the left and Klinkhammer fired it into the open net for his first NHL goal.
"That was great to get," said Klinkhammer. "You know I'm just trying to score a goal and help the team win, this one being the game-winner makes it even sweeter."
Dallas, though, cut into its deficit with 1:41 to play in the second. On the power play, Jagr's heavy wrister from the right circle beat Smith to the far side for his 10th goal of the season.
The Stars had 1:29 of a 5-on-3 in the second half of the final period, but were unable to get any quality chances before the advantage expired.
"Some nights it's not going to go in but when you have a 5-on-3 in the third as long as the one we had and you don't score, it's tough," said Dallas defenseman Stephane Robidas.
Smith need to make just four saves in the final frame to help Phoenix hang on for the win.
Both teams are back in action on Tuesday, as Dallas hosts Nashville and
Phoenix hosts the Kings ... Jagr's goal was the 675th of his career ... Each
team won twice in the season series ... Dallas was 1-for-5 on the power play
while Phoenix went 0-for-2.

Welcome to Pacers Digest! New around here? Here are three tips for making the forum a great place to talk about Pacers basketball.
- Log in. Even if you want to read instead of post, it's helpful because it lets you:
- Change your signature options. You can hide all signatures by choosing "Settings" (top right) then "General Settings" (middle left) and unchecking the box "Show Signatures" (in the "Thread Display Options" area).
- Create an ignore list. I know it may seem unneighborly. But you're here to talk about the Pacers, not argue with someone who's just looking for an argument. Most of the regular users on here make use (at least occasionally) of the "Ignore" feature. Just go to "Settings" -> "Edit Ignore List" and add the names.
Enjoy your time at PD!

TEA News Releases Online
Jan. 9, 2012
AUSTIN – Commissioner Robert Scott today announced the nomination of 26 Texas public schools for the 2012 Blue Ribbon Schools recognition. The award honors schools for academic excellence and for significant progress in closing the achievement gap.
Since 1982, this prestigious program has honored more than 6,000 of America's most successful schools, including 538 Texas public schools. The Blue Ribbon Schools Program honors public and private elementary, middle and high schools. The schools are selected for one of two honors:
The nominated schools were chosen through an objective evaluation of student achievement statistics and other data for the more than 8,000 public school and charter campuses in the state. The schools selected have demonstrated success in closing the achievement gap, and each school has an economically disadvantaged population of 40 percent or greater.
Schools nominated for the award serve as models of best practices for schools across the state.
The nominated schools will now complete a rigorous application process through the U.S. Department of Education, and announcements of the award winners will be made in September 2012. Schools that receive the award are recognized at the Blue Ribbon School conference in Washington, D.C.

Faculty Advisors: Every freshman and sophomore is assigned a faculty adviser. Faculty Advisors are members of the faculty who, in addition to the usual responsibilities of course registration, also meet with their advisees throughout the academic year to discuss any aspect of student life at Webb. The intent of the freshman advising program is to help students with the critical adjustment necessary for college success.
Medical Facilities: A physician is always on call to handle routine minor illnesses and emergencies; there's also emergency care available at the nearby community hospital.
Counseling: Counseling within a college environment is an opportunity for a student to learn more about their interpersonal worlds, while easing the discomforts often encountered in the course of college life. It is the goal of Student Support Services to offer a supportive venue that will nurture the emotional and intellectual integrity of all Webb students. Student Services does not attempt to replace the student's private physician or therapist, nor does it assume total responsibility for psychiatric needs. Personal counseling is available locally.
Houses of Worship: Houses of worship of various denominations are available in Glen Cove.

With a stunning wrap-around panorama of Toronto's magnificent downtown skyline on one side and sparkling lake views on the other, The Residences soar thirty floors atop The Ritz-Carlton, Toronto. A legendary location at the very heart of Canada's largest city, The Residences are beautifully situated among world class shopping, entertainment and dining.
Toronto is a city in constant motion - culturally and commercially. More so now than ever - from Frank Gehry's sweeping "new look" for the Art Gallery of Ontario to Daniel Liebskind's makeover of the Royal Ontario Museum. Conveniently, most of these new cultural centers are just a few blocks from The Residences at The Ritz-Carlton, Toronto. While the downtowns of many cities shutdown after dark, Toronto is alive with activity and excitement. And it is all just outside your front door: the finest restaurants, chichest boutiques, best clubs.

I think Mike Earley must have sat on his glasses and had to borrow his secretary's pair so he could see the photographer for the shoot.
Bad mistake.
Even worse than the one he made trying to simultaneously smile, bite his bottom lip and stare, terrified, into the lens.

The best Hamster Forum out there. For great advice and ever greater friends, visit this amazing site.
Psychoclarinet: I love Hamster House!
Trouble: You're a nerd.
Trouble: You're a nerd.
von psychoclarinet 10. August 2008
A hamster forum with an ever-growing community of hamster lovers. It is made up of people of all ages and from all over the world. The members are intelligent and welcoming. It is loosely moderated and therefore more fun than other hamster forums. All of the members worship Almi, their hamster God.
Almi pwns Hamster House.
von Almipwns 31. März 2009
Hamster House is an online forum for pet hamsters (yes, that's right, hamsters). The only reason people join and stay are the two members Haley and Meghan. These two are extremely cool and keep the forum alive and interesting, what with their topics regarding sex, masturbation, hoboes, Andy Samberg, Mexican Hairless Dogs, Star Trek, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs and much much more. Meghan also makes beautiful signatures. Infact, they are said to be secret moderators and will inherit Hamster House when the admin dies off (Haley has had sex with all of the staff there).
Either way, Meghan and Haley pwn all the live long days.

Person 1: I joined Hamster House and it was boring until Meghan posted some pictures of the movie Hot Rod and made me a signature.
Person 2: I was going to log off and slit my wrists, but then, Haley logged in and started a Star Trek roleplay. It gave me a reason to live again.

Hamster House is an incredibly sad online forum in which people lacking a life like to discuss their pet hamsters. A select few people enjoy harassing the forum, as the members have amusing reactions.
liv: aw, darn, i was banned from Hamster House again!

Is there a secret sharing scheme where the knowledge of just one share is sufficient to find the secret, in other words a (one-out-of-n) sharing scheme ? Plz I need to know if it is possible to make such operation with secter sharing
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Cryptography Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for software developers, mathematicians and others interested in cryptography. It's 100% free, no registration required.
Just tell the whole secret to each person.
Assuming each participant $i$ has a key-pair $(x_i,y_i)$ for an asymmetric encryption scheme (with $x_i$ being the private and $y_i$ the public key), you can divide your secret as
$$ S_i := \operatorname{Enc}(y_i, S).$$
Then each participant can retrieve the secret as
$$ S = \operatorname{Dec}(x_i, S_i).$$
Of course, simply giving each participant $S$ fulfills the same purpose.

Boy Wonder
Action/Adventure, Drama, Suspense/Thriller

As the boundaries blur, Sean's dual life wears on his psyche and his two worlds careen dangerously close to colliding. Like a graphic novel you can't put down, Boy Wonder challenges morality, distorting perceptions of what is right and what is justified, as it races to its shocking conclusion.

LOS ANGELES — Kacey Musgraves, the 25-year-old Nashville singer-songwriter who trades in wry, tradition-tweaking truths, took home best country album for "Same Trailer Different Park" and country song (for "Merry Go 'Round) prizes at the 56th annual Grammy Awards on Sunday night.
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Daft Punk and Lorde won in all four major, all-genre categories, but Musgraves was anything but despondent about losing out in the best new artist race.
"I can't put into words how excited I am to represent the country music genre with the music I've gotten to make," she said backstage at the Staples Center. "I made a record that was inspired by real life, everything I was going through at the time, but also all of the traditional elements of country music that I love, that I grew up with."

Ross Brawn admits it was 'tough' for Nico Rosberg to hold station behind Lewis Hamilton but that the German's time will come.
Racing behind the two Red Bull drivers, Hamilton was in third place with his team-mate fast approaching.
Rosberg, though, was told not to attack and despite pleading "let me pass" listened to his boss when he was told no.
The duo crossed the line third and fourth, arguably Mercedes' best result since last year's victory in China.
"This weekend was another step in the right direction for the team," said Brawn. "The team made the right calls on strategy.
"We had a heavier than expected fuel consumption during the race and as we got towards the end, we had to take some measures to ensure that both cars finished."
The team boss explained: "We asked Lewis and Nico to hold position and both drivers respected that.
"Whilst it was tough for Nico and I fully expect him to be disappointed, we have now got a car we can fight with and that there will be plenty more opportunities to achieve good results this season.
"We've got to concentrate on keeping up the pace of development but we can take pride in achieving our first podium of the season."
