A New Way of Aging!
Sage-ing is looking at life in a new way as we grow older.
Sage-ing is a spiritual practice that involves harvesting the wisdom of our lives, finding ways to transmit that wisdom as a legacy to future generations and to give back through service.
Sage-ing International's goal is to help you achieve your best self as you age. We support Sage-ing Leaders who bring classes and workshops, Wisdom Circles and Sage-ing Chapters to local communities.We promote Sage-ing through online and offline resources, conferences and workshops.
Our upcoming Conference
Please join us for the fifth biennial Sage-ing International Conference: Wisdom and Spirit in Action, October 20 – 23, 2016 to be held at Sunrise Ranch Conference and Retreat Center, Loveland, CO, located in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. We will be gathering with kindred spirits to learn, connect and serve. The full program is now available here as well as registration links. We look forward to seeing you in Colorado!!!

Conscious Age-ing is about networking with other Elders. Join or create a local Wisdom Circle.
Conscious Age-ing is about giving back, providing service, mentoring. See what Sages in Service are doing.
Sage-ing International is committed to transforming the current paradigm of aging to "sage-ing" through learning, community building and service.
With a confidence born from harvesting life experience and with a humility that sees service as the natural result of continued inner growth, we find ways to serve every day. This generosity of spirit elicits joy in human relations, while positively benefiting the communities and cultures we serve.
- We embrace new paradigms for aging to realize our potential.
- We recall important people and events and how they have shaped us.
- We harvest the wisdom learned through life's triumphs and challenges.
- We find solace in forgiving others and ourselves
- We make peace with death, taking spiritual and practical steps
- We create a legacy through service, mentoring and activism
Is Sage-ing for You?
Are you in the second half of life and wondering what to do next? Have you just retired, have you recently become an empty-nester or has some other life transition left you wondering "what's next?" Sage-ing may be your answer!
Sage-ing engages curiosity, community, commitment and connections and encourages us to enrich ourselves and our world through serving a cause, contacting a friend, reading a good book, attending a class, or enjoying the beauty and wonder of nature.
Embracing a sage-ing way of life may be the most important thing you do for yourself (and for others in your life) this year.
Here we share wisdom and inspiring stories from the Sage-ing International community, as well as from other partners in the rich collective of the conscious aging field. We aspire to bring you changing content of interest that keeps you coming back for more!
Fundamental Questions
Reb Zalman, founder of the Spiritual Eldering Institute, was a pioneer in Conscious Aging. This Jeffrey Mishlove interview with Reb Zalman gives an introduction to Sage-ing and Conscious Aging principles.
The book From Age-ing to Sage-ing tells Reb Zalman's story of choosing to become an Elder, rather than just becoming elderly. He shares wisdom about the last stage of life in interviews with Sara Davidson in The December Project. Watch one of her interviews here.
Reb Zalman passed away in July 2014. Read tributes to this remarkable man here.

Two area high school girls basketball teams are aiming for state titles in Austin, and they're only separated by 12 miles.
Robertson County has a lot to be proud about this year in high school athletics.
Both Franklin and Calvert made it to the state quarterfinals this year in football, and both are now in the state semifinals in girls' basketball.
The Franklin girls made school history Saturday, when they beat Crawford in the 2A Region 3 championship game in Nacogdoches.
It's very exciting, because not only are we the first team to make state in girls, we're the first team to make state in anything," Franklin junior guard Kyla Walker said.
Now, excited as they are, the Lady Lions have another challenge ahead of them when they face five-time defending state champion Brock.
"We don't have anything to lose. We're the underdogs here," said junior Shelby Mullinnix. "We're just going to give it our best and see what happens."
Junior Regan Blajeski added, "We always like to go in and beat people, especially being the underdogs and it's a really great experience and we'll go into this game thinking we can do it too."
Just up the road in Calvert, still in Robertson County, the Lady Trojans are also practicing, getting ready for a state semifinal game on Friday. The Lady Trojans are headed to Austin for the first time since 2007.
"We've worked real hard and the kids have put in a lot of time to be successful and achieve this goal," said Calvert head coach Isaac Wells. "They've worked extremely hard and put up with the push from me and demands from me and they've answered every day in practice and, of course, it's shown up on the floor."
Like Franklin, the Lady Trojans have fast-breaked and pressured their way to Austin. They have gone over the 70 point mark in 15 of their 25 games this season.
Lady Trojan senior Raquel Wortham said, "We've had teams come to us and say you must be some world class runners because we run and gun everywhere we go. We practiced the boys one day and we were running and gunning with them. That's all we do is run. That's the key word: running."
Calvert will be the newcomer to the state tournament. The Lady Trojans face Highland in the semifinals Friday. The Lady Hornets are making their second straight trip to state, and the other semi features Lipan (7) and Nazareth (23), who have made it to state a combined 30 times.
I'm really looking forward to it because it's about time that we be heard once again. We're Calvert Trojans, and we do have the skills and we have the ability to play. We're ready to go out there and show what we can do," said freshman guard Cydnei Wells.
Franklin will face Brock Friday at 10 a.m. Calvert takes on Highland Friday at 1:30 p.m.

Sort by:
Our home is beautiful. The grounds are well kept and the barbeque area is convenient.
The staff Here at Beachwood apartments are very friendly and very helpful with any question or concern about any issue with the apartment.
I enjoy living at Beachwood Apartments. There is security that patrols at night, allowing me to feel safe. I like that the amenities - basketball and tennis courts, pools, jacuzzi, and gym. The location is relatively close to shopping and theme parks - Disneyland and Knott's Berry Farm. The community is gated, and I like my big backyard. I also like the fact it was recently renovated with hardwood floors and granite countertops. There is also a hospital across the street, if needed.
Nice place to live. and large rooms,barthroom,bedroom,good location
Enjoy living here.
Clean Landscape, gated community, well maintained Dog Park, nice neighbors.
What is a Certified Resident?
A resident who lives at the property and has completed a resident satisfaction survey.
Advertising properties provide a list of email addresses of its residents to Kingsley Associates, a third party market research firm, who then sends out the satisfaction survey to the residents. Properties may also conduct satisfaction surveys of its residents through other third party market research firms. In those cases, we will publish those survey responses as long as the questions conform to our standard survey format.
Because reviews are from Certified Residents, and are managed by a third party, you can feel confident that the feedback provided is accurate and trustworthy.
General Directions
From the 91 Freeway Exit South on Beach Blvd. toward Knotts Berry Farm. Beachwood is 2 miles down on the left side at the corner of Beach Blvd. and Orange Ave.

The delineation of species boundaries in the potentially harmful cyanobacterium Planktothrix Anagnostidis et Komárek 1988 is particularly tangled. Genetic recombination has been invoked to explain the occurrence of overlapping biological traits among recognized species. Although horizontal gene transfer is shown as a driver of diversification in this genus, clear evidence for homologous recombination at the single gene level is still lacking. Several Planktothrix strains (n = 244) sampled in eight fresh water lakes in north Italy were characterized by sequencing the rpoC1 gene, a molecular marker previously proposed to discriminate between species. Six haplotypes were detected, four of which are newly described. A relevant number of rpoC1 sequences (n = 54) showed evidence of homologous recombination. By comparing the sequences produced in the work presented here to those available on GenBank for the genus, multiple recombination events were tracked between haplotypes associated to P. rubescens, P. suspensa and P. agardhii, the latter being a species not found in our survey. Recombination signals were in form of (i) a vast mosaic structure present in the alignment of rpoC1 haplotypes, (ii) multiple and statistically significant paths in the split decomposition network connecting these haplotypes and (iii) many individual crossing-over events detected by means of recombination detection tests. Data suggest that the molecular evolution of the rpoC1 gene in the genus Planktothrix appears as strongly influenced by homologous recombination. In addition, rpoC1 diversity effectively tracks recombinational processes among species in the complex made up by P. rubescens, P. agardhii and P. suspensa, which are not isolated in terms of gene-flow.

I often get asked how I edit my photos so I thought I'd share with you what I do.
There are many ways to edit and everybody has their favorites but a bright and crisp photo wins EVERYTIME. I'll show you my process. This is the foundation for all of my edits and I get creative from here.
1. First begin in a well lit natural lighted area. Indoors is good with your face towards an open window. If outside find a fully shaded area and be sure your face is towards the light. Keep in mind if the light is behind you it will create shadows and work against you so find the light and turn to face it.
2. Download PIC TAP GO.
Upload your photo and click the FILTERS function and be sure you have ALL selected. Then select COOL IT DOWN.
5. Go back to FILTERS / ALL select the AIR filter.
6. Go back to FILTERS / ALL select the CRISPITY filter.
Slide the opacity this far
7. Click GO then, CAMERA ROLL to save the edited photo to your phone and then click SAVE RECIPE to save your editing process.
NAME it Cool, Bleached, High Five, Crispity.
The next time you open up PIC TAP GO to edit a photo you can select the FILTERS tab MY STYLE then RECIPES and your process has now been saved as its OWN FILTER!!!! You can adjust the opacity of it and add other filters on top of it if you feel like it. But the point is you now have a cohesive editing filter to keep using over and over again.

Also in good news i learned that my dd is doing VERY good in preschool her scores have changed drastically in the last yr! And she knows how to spell her name.
Didn't see that coming...
So big tommy is your 2nd cousin?
Daddy's Princess arrived January 4th, 2013
Married to Richard 09/04/2006
I was under the impression that big Tommy was your first cousin. Now you say he isn't. Please clarify. Is he your father's first cousin?
Fuckin Renee! 😂 -Megomomma
When i always thmalk about this to a doctor they always see me lije a mad face. - isabelizabeth
Laugh at your problems, everybody else does.
oh so big tommy is not your first cousin. big tommy has a parent who is the sibling to your dad's parent? so it's still blood relative, assuming your dad is your bio.
have you ever wanted your dad to do a paternity test?
what do your parents think of this scandal?
"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."
-Albert Einstein
*cough* 32myfuckingass *cough*
So then Big Tommy is your second cousin I think? That would make him your love child's third cousin and daddy all in one. Family reunions must have real low turnout what with you all doubling down on relations.
Does Big Tommy live up to his name? Is that why you banged him?
"As a country, we are in bigly trouble."~SD&H
JLClyde...can you please teach a class.on how to speak cousin fucker because you seem to be the only one who understands this mess.
^ I come from a dysfunctional family, no cousin fucking that I know of, but I am skilled in deciphering crazy.
DS(14), DS(7), DS(8 months)
No, if big Tommy is her dad's 1st cousin, he is her 1st cousin once removed and the baby's 1st cousin twice removed.
When i always thmalk about this to a doctor they always see me lije a mad face. - isabelizabeth

Skip to comments.Emerald Cities 'Goals' (CCX connections -- Beck is discussing)
Posted on 04/29/2010 7:33:32 AM PDT by combat_boots
Emerald Goals
Green Our Cities
Our goal is to achieve significant reductions in the carbon footprint and energy consumption and increased energy savings and efficiencies. To this end, we encourage cities to:
Substantially increase the energy efficiency of citywide building stock over ten years while prioritizing poor communities.
Buildings are the largest national source of energy consumption, costing $400 billion annually in energy bills and comprising 80 percent of local carbon emissions in some cities. Yet, efficiency gains between 30 and 50 percent are possible using existing, cost-effective technology. Reducing energy consumption requires a comprehensive retrofit of building stock. The most significant residential gains in efficiency will be made by retrofitting the poorly maintained, oldest, and least efficient building stock concentrated in poor communities. To achieve such large-scale energy reduction, partners can:
Establish a comprehensive, participatory planning process supported by professional planning and management
Develop a variety of financing mechanisms that leverages the resources of utility companies, private investors, and federal, state and local government programs
Retrofit government office buildings, schools, hospitals, affordable housing projects, waste stations, as well as private residential housing stock
Prioritize retrofits in low-income neighborhoods Implement deep, not simple, retrofits wherever possible.
Simple retrofits insulating inefficient buildings and perhaps providing more efficient appliances, can improve energy efficiency and create short-term jobs. However, they miss critical opportunities. Deep retrofits are designed to coordinate energy upgrades with solutions to other safety hazards or deficiencies in buildings, link the building stock to the broader infrastructure; maximize gains on a neighborhood scale, and target improvements to community needs. Moreover, the complex work and large-scale changes required by deep retrofits provide wide-ranging green job opportunities in design, manufacturing, and construction or installation. To promote comprehensive gains in energy efficiency, cities can endorse efforts to:
Coordinate energy efficiency retrofits with other building improvements for healthy housing including lead abatement, installation of current communications technology, disabled friendly alternations, water conservation, and indoor air quality
Define retrofits to include landscape, urban vegetable cultivation, water, and communications (broadband and future technologies) systems so that buildings can properly link to the broader urban infrastructure.
Pursue neighborhood level projects rather than focusing on buildings in isolation
Encourage building technology innovation that furthers energy efficiency in building materials, construction techniques, and retrofits
Develop long-term energy efficiency strategies that link the city to the region and promote regional manufacturing for the building technology required for retrofits
Build Our Communities
Our goal is to generate good jobs and lifetime construction careers, create new high-road, community-based enterprises, reduce urban poverty and chronic underemployment especially in communities of color, and raise living standards. To this end, we encourage cities to:
Support high-quality job creation through the requirement for labor standards.
Construction is a high turnover industry susceptible to the influx of poorly-trained, poorly-paid workers and employers who resist training workers. Labor standards can compel employers to support training programs that both ensure uniform, high-quality construction work and establish the decent wages and benefits critical to stabilizing communities. Thus, energy efficiency efforts have the greatest long-term impact when they link to the growth of a well-paid, well-trained green workforce at scale. To promote this approach, cities can:
Promote the use of community workforce agreements, either at the neighborhood or city level, and aid in development of such agreements
Adopt a coordinated curriculum for high-skilled green construction in conjunction with incentives for the use of credentialed green labor
Support workforce development, including both credentialed vocational training and a supply of remedial general education and work readiness. This includes expanding the union-based apprenticeship system.
Coordinate efforts to ensure the provision of an adequate local supply of qualified contractors and workers to do the large-scale work demanded by this plan Expand access to high-quality jobs and contracts to minorities, women, and low-income residents.
Communities of color have been disproportionately impacted by the economic crisis and historically excluded from the benefits of economic growth during good times. Energy efficiency efforts can maximize economic impact by introducing career opportunities to minorities and communities with high rates of unemployment and poverty. Workforce development not only helps individuals but also reduces spin-off costs from unemployment and poverty. Moreover, long-term economic advancement requires business development within disadvantaged communities. To expand economic opportunity, local efforts can agree to:
Where in place, utilize and enforce community benefits agreements in energy efficiency projects; otherwise promote and support concepts of agreements
Further linkages between community workforce training programs and union pre-apprenticeship curriculum; linkages to other publicly funded workforce training partnerships in ECC cities (e.g. those led by community colleges); and connections for program participants to training and jobs in the broader infrastructure arena.
Increase opportunities for minority and women-owned contractors to administer and carry out green construction projects
Support development of the workforce in complementary industries such as manufacturing, engineering, auditing, and recycling
Strengthen Our Democracy
Our goal is to increase labor-community input in urban political decision-making and promote pro-working families economic development strategies. To achieve this goal, cities can:
Build lasting democratic capacity to shape the urban economy.
Low wage earners often lack voice and access to the formal venues and informal networks that generate public policies and economic strategies. Yet, low-income residents stand to benefit greatly from the long-term cost-savings and potential for small-business creation of conservation and efficiency efforts. The most effective energy efficiency strategies require widespread cooperation. This requires people to communicate, identify common interests and goals and obstacles to reaching them, and to work together toward achieving them all activities that can help build democratic capacity. Efforts to deeply organize our communities and align community and labor interests should not be confined to increasing energy efficiency in buildings. These alignments will increase the public capacity to meaningfully influence our cities economic, social and political futures. We support efforts to:
Provide financial incentives and extensive training to enable community groups to support resident organizing around efficient and sustainable communities
Build resident capacity to aggregate the demand needed to build collective enterprises and attract specialized and high quality contractors
Organize residents to advocate for policies and programs that support local sustainability
Build partnerships with labor to increase community leverage around energy efficiency in urban political decision-making.
Endorse and advocate for regulations and legislation furthering these goals
Government policy is powerful tool in ensuring coordination among different constituencies and groups to achieve their joint priorities. The regulation of new energy projects can guarantee job standards and community access to those jobs; ensure transparency and equal opportunity in labor markets; and repair damage done to individuals within underserved communities by helping them grasp the opportunities of retrofits. In addition, government regulation can organize the money needed for energy efficiency work by removing unnecessary constraints on community ability to capture and aggregate the value flowing from their work. Methods to achieving this include to:
Support local policy such as a community workforce agreements to enforce local source hiring, specify required skills, set apprenticeship utilization rates for contractors, and make explicit the assumption that union-employer partnerships provide vocational training
Establish special tax districts for energy efficiency and clean generation
Engage state utility boards in the cost recovery of capital for such programs through the requirement that all utilities offer on-bill financing.
Develop forward-capacity markets at the federal level
Encourage policy that shifts public spending away from direct purchases of labor or materials toward credit enhancement that make available capital for energy efficiency. One possible method is a public fund for default insurance and securitization services.
Well I went to the site and didn't see Beck's name anywhere, is more to the point of my question.

George Soros, Maurice Strong and company redefine the Middleclass (Must read)
Canada Free Press ^ | September 26, 2008 | Judi McLeod
Who is attacking the U.S.? The big casualty in this 21st century U.S. civil war is the Middle Class George Soros, Maurice Strong and company redefine the Middleclass
George Soros, Al Gore, Warren Buffet, Maurice StrongThe Democrat-loving mainstream media is missing the boat on Warren Buffets take of Americas economic meltdown as a sort of economic Pearl Harbor were going through.
That being the case, then surely the first question should be: Who is attacking the U.S.?
The billionaires $5 billion investment in Goldman Sachs Group Inc. at the same time hes touting the Treasurys $700 billion bank rescue plan, should be the tipoff.
With so many banksters and fraudsters openly treating the U.S. treasury as their private piggybank, one ponders whats really going on.
Is wholesale market manipulation the new al Qaeda?
So how does UN Poster Boy Maurice Strong intend to harness Americas middleclass?
This is what Strong told a reporter back in 1990, when he was describing what he called a fantasy scenario for the World Economic Forum meeting in Davos, Switzerlandwhere 1,000 diplomats, CEOs and politicians gather annually to address global issues.
What if a small group of these world leaders were to conclude that the principal risk to the earth comes from the actions of the rich countries?
In order to save the planet, the group decides: Isnt the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isnt it our responsibility to bring this about?
This group of world leaders forms a secret society to bring about an economic collapse, Strong told the reporter in painting his so-called fantasy scenario.
Its February. Theyre all at Davos. These arent terrorists. Theyre world leaders. They have positioned themselves in the worlds commodities and stock markets. Theyve engineered, using their access to stock markets and computers and gold supplies, a panic. Then, they prevent the worlds stock markets from closing. They jam the gears. They hire mercenaries who hold the rest of the world leaders at Davos as hostage. The markets cant close

Union thugs, if it has Obama involved , behind the curtain is the union Label.
Apologoes, Vendome. Beck was discussing this Emerald Cities organization on his radio show today and its interconnectedness to the usual suspects & DC corruption.
Therefore good to step back and look at the maze itself...first. This has nothing to do with the American people no matter how convincingly they present it. It is about cash flow first to the coffers they desire.....cap n' trade, global warming, student loans, auto industry, insurance comp., healthcare are all the highest volumes of cash flow in our country.....thus control of these is control of the money they gender. Now they are going after the banks on wallstreet, they first infused them, like it or not, and now they will tear them down in order to regulate their cash flow. It is about a gathering of all cash under the regulation and control of the government.
But it will go from there, and now working behind the scenes to much extent...to the governance of monies on an international level. Of course the IMF and the G-12 meetings are good to follow to see how this develops....interesting to see when they meet.. and news they report... generally on certain sites that news agencies find dull and boring as new.
Interesting as well, once they have the monies where they want them....then each nation is in position to barter etc politically for the powers that will weld. There will always be a cash cow for the underdeveloped nations just to keep them out of the political power decisions...keep them under control by dependency on these handouts...but only enough to give them false hope.
So ultimately it is all about the money and power....but on an international scale....we are the collateral damage that goes with getting where they want to go. Neutralize the US power is part of the agenda to bring about control of international monies...and of course carbon credits via global warming will keep the monies moving into their coffers. All in the name of a better world for it's citizenry.......and if anyone believes that....well you know the line...

I'm sorry, but buildings don't use any energy. The EQUIPMENT inside them use energy when PEOPLE want them to use it. The building qualities can affect the rate of energy use, but it does not "use energy"!
I know it's nitpicking, but I can't stand that phrase. I hear it too much these days. Like "environmental stewardship" and "green", it drives me nuts.
I hope you have watched or Tivo'd Glenn Beck's 4 p.m. TV show today on FOX because he is talking about this Emerald Cities and the "wizard" is a professor-guess where- at the University of Wisconsin Madison. Joel Rogers. Yikes, this is bigger than I thought. See www.cows.org.
"Welcome to COWS
COWS is a national policy center and field laboratory for high-road economic development a competitive market economy of shared prosperity, environmental sustainability, and capable democratic government.
COWS' work is collaborative, experimental, and evidence-driven. Working with business, government, labor, and communities, we try out new ideas, test their effectiveness, and disseminate those with promise. We believe that the best way to predict the future is to start making it, particularly in our states and metro regions.
Some areas of COWS' program focus are:
Economic and workforce development
Sectoral strategies and career pathways
Clean energy and energy efficiency
Labor markets and job improvement
Strategies for improving low-wage work
COWS is based at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, famous for the Wisconsin Idea that the University should help informed democratic experiment. Since its founding 18 years ago, COWS has often been called the Wisconsin Idea in action.
COWS is a 501(c)(3) nonpartisan, educational and charitable organization. Its budget comes from foundation and individual gifts and grants and technical assistance contracts."
WE2 gets federal support
Three Wisconsin cities received a $20 million federal award that ultimately will provide $120 million to create the Wisconsin Energy Efficiency (WE2) program. COWS was as partner in this pioneering effort.

>>Buildings are the largest national source of energy consumption,<<
I'm trying to get my company to let me telecommute. Maybe I should use the financial argument. ;)
The FBI is where?... doing what?.. complicit?..
Are any of the harpies in the sock puppet news media that went head hunting with the 'Halliburtion/Cheney connection' doing anything on this?
This conspiracy compared to the Halliburtion no bid story is like comparing a golf ball to the moon. It's that much bigger. It encompasses all the big unions that were paid off with health care, the stimulus and the bail outs. All the big companies that were paid off with the stimulus like Freddy/Fanny, Goldman, etc... It is astronomical the amount of people and money woven into this conspiracy to create a ruling class and a slave class.
I only hear crickets.
Those who missed it watch this weeks shows on Monday and Thursday the 26th and 28th for it to be laid out by Glenn Beck. It is a conspiracy laid bare and the center of it is Obama. Not a nut case conspiracy theory like 9/11 - this one has teeth and is the death rattle of this country.
Like Glenn says, he's one man with a small staff and the blessings of Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes. The rest of the so called news media are literally silent and not interested, and we have to question "why?" Are they so in-the-tank to the point of wanting to see our country fail and fall into the hands of Marxists and Communists?
Glenn is right: Government is now a criminal enterprise. Nobody repsonsible for the finanacial collapse in in jail or even being investigated. Franklin Raines is a fillthy rich man and deeply involved with a new arm of this mega scheme, heading "Enterprise," after securing the patent and raiding Fannie.
Yet, no charges, no congressional oversight, nothing. Government is a criminal enterprise.
Ah, Utopia.
And damn the cost.
Bravo. Well said.
...." Government is a criminal enterprise"......
Makes you wonder how far those threads go doesn't it....and thus when we vote does it become entirely the lesser of the the evils. Because once they are in the thros of the Washington thugocracy how can the good guys not become tainted in order to just survive being there?
"Yet, no charges, no congressional oversight, nothing. Government is a criminal enterprise."
I fear that even if the RATS are voted out in November there won't be. It's a very slim chance. It may be stopped and swept under the rug, but I would bet my left knut that no one of any stature is charged.
Most governments of the world are criminal enterprises. Too bad ours isn't any different any more.
The democrats have to be voted out regardless. We knopw they're criminals and we also have to vote out the Republican incumbents in the primaries! I've had it. New blood. CITIZEN legislators, preferably veterans who have served our country. To hell with "experience in government," and "millionaires."
I am printing out every page I can find that this Joel Rogers has printed in case they "disappear" off of his website. www.cows.org. He is the "wizard" that Beck is talking about, and head of the Apollo Alliance.

Should I be worried?
See Post 6 for Board members. I noticed that within 1/2 hour of Beck's 1st mention of the names, the link went dead and had to be searched, so, I posted them before they could go to ground completely.
I'd clean my registry and use an anonymizer. Scan your PC and reboot.
Maybe the admin mod can offer some advice.

Sen. Tom Carper (D-Del.) is helping to negotiate a nuclear energy amendment that could help bring aboard swing votes who support the industry. Architects and backers of the nuclear effort include Sens. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.), John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), who are seeking more federal financial backing and other support.
Nuclear Energy Institute spokesman John Keeley said the industrys priorities include greater funding for loan guarantees. Congress has set aside $18.5 billion thus far for nuclear plant loan guarantees under a DOE financing program first authorized in the 2005 Energy Policy Act. But this would cover only a small number of new plants.
Four proposals remain in the running for DOE guarantees from this funding, according to several published reports. They are: UniStar Nuclear Energy/Constellation Energy Groups proposed Calvert Cliffs plant in Maryland; NRG Energy Inc.s South Texas Project; Southern Co.s Vogtle plant in Georgia; and Scana Corp.s Summer plant in South Carolina.

Will Obamas Goldman Sachs Attack Expose Al Gore? Or Other Dems?

Will Obamas Goldman Sachs Attack Expose Al Gore? Or Other Dems?
Richard Pollock On April 22, 2010
Whether Wall Street colossus Goldman Sachs has committed a crime remains to be seen, but the investigation may well uncover the environmental lobby and its public figurehead. For nearly a decade, Goldman Sachs has been a quiet but major investor in cap and trade. And Goldmans main investment partner has been Al Gore.
About a decade ago, Goldman executives recognized that personal fortunes could be made with the invention of a carbon trading system through the passage of a U.S. cap-and-trade bill. This area was well suited to Goldman Sachs, the architects behind the complex world of futures trading and exotic derivatives.
Goldman joined Al Gore in 2004 and capitalized his investment company, Generation Investment Management. Strangely for a man who was a heartbeat away from the presidency, Gore decided to register his company in London not the United States.
In November 2004, Gore unveiled GIM. Standing at his side was David Blood, the CEO of Goldman Asset Management. Blood was to become his co-founder (the new company was quickly nicknamed Blood & Gore). It was established with the initial capital of $206 million, much of it from Blood clients at Goldman Sachs.
Gore also turned to Goldman Sachs guru (and later Bush Treasury Secretary) Henry Paulson to help him establish GIM. At the time, Paulson himself was an eco-warrior of sorts, serving as chairman of the board of the Nature Conservancy.
Today, seven of Gores GIM chief partners are from Goldman Sachs. The company is now valued [1] at $2.2 billion.
It doesnt stop there. The Goldman Sachs/Gore team then established the Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX), a new cap-and-trade carbon trading platform, and partnered with the UK-based Climate Exchange, Plc (CLE), a holding company [2] listed on the London Stock Exchange [3]. CLE does carbon trading in Europe. In late 2004, they also created the Chicago Climate Futures Exchange [4] (CCFX).
In September of 2006, Climate Exchange Plc acquired [5] the remainder of CCX it didnt own [6] and placed £12.2 million of new shares with Goldman Sachs [7].
Goldman is reported to have made an investment of $23 million in the venture. Between Gore and Goldman, they are the largest investors in the Chicago Climate Exchange, owning 20% of it.
Last year, in an expose from Rolling Stone writer Matt Taibbi (Inside the Great American Bubble Machine [8]) Taibbi identified Goldman Sachs as the father of some of our most notable modern day economic crises. He profiled a firm that handsomely profiteered over both the tech bubble and the metastasizing housing bubble.
Taibbi predicted Goldmans next big play in cap and trade. This would become our next bubble. Taibbi tagged Goldman Sachs a gangster state, running on gangster economics.
Marc Morano, publisher of Climatedepot.com, agrees:
Goldman Sachs is helping to engineer the next great bubble. And we are talking about subprime science, subprime politics, and subprime economics. Goldman Sachs is at the forefront of the subprime economics of carbon trading.
Although cap and trade has temporarily faded in Washington, D.C., carbon trading still lives in the nations capital. Next week, Senators John Kerry (D-MA), Lindsey Graham (R-SC), and Joe Lieberman (I-CT) are expected to unveil a new cap-and-trade bill.
The idea of turning a free, colorless, and odorless gas into a product still attracts the money people. Myron Ebell, director of Freedom Action, says:
These Gore investments could potentially make him a billionaire. For a guy who started with just a small fortune he could end up with a very large one.
In describing its own mission, CCFEs website is reminiscent of last Fridays SEC fraud charge on mortgage derivatives:
Chicago Climate Futures Exchange® operates the leading U.S. marketplace for environmental derivatives, financial instruments whose underlying values are tradeable environmental assets.
CCFE was launched in 2004 and is part of the Climate Exchange Plc (LSE: CLE.L) group of companies, which comprise the worlds leading exchanges specializing in environmental derivatives. Also owned by Climate Exchange Plc are the European Climate Exchange® (ECX®) and the Chicago Climate Exchange® (CCX®), of which CCFE is a subsidiary. ECX is the dominant exchange by trading volume for carbon derivatives in the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme.
Morano thinks the tarnished Goldman Sachs brand can taint Al Gore and cap-and-trade advocates:
You add to that the underpinnings of the people who backed [cap and trade] and helped create it are tied to Al Gore and Goldman Sachs, and then you have a real crisis in confidence. And then you have more woes for the global warming establishment.
Goldman Sachs is one of the most politically connected investment firms in all of America. In the 2008 political cycle alone, the Goldman Sachs PAC lavished $5.9 million upon candidates for Congress.
Three out of four Goldman Sachs dollars went to Democrats. Nearly $1 million more went to Barack Obama. Goldman Sachs was the second-highest contributor to the Democratic presidential candidate. And in the last three years Goldman Sachs spent a cool $12.3 million to lobby the halls of Congress.
Even Barack Obama, who seems to be needling Goldman in his war against Wall Street, has himself turned to the storied Wall Street firm. Neel Kashkari, who led Goldmans security investment banking practice, was tapped to run Obamas TARP government bailout program.
As the presidential attack on Goldman intensifies, will Obama wound some of his closest political allies?

Just One Button for Cappuccino/Latte
This makes a huge difference, which is a bit surprising. After all, we had a perfectly good milk frother in the Aeroccino Plus. The problem was that even though it was fast and cleanup was easy, using a separate gadget to heat and froth the milk added enough steps to the process that we just didn't do it very often, despite our best intentions. Now with the Lattissima+ it's just a single button, and we use it almost every time.
Real Steamed Milk
Say what you want about the clever heated+frothed milk in the older Aeroccino models; it still wasn't quite the same as freshly steamed milk froth. That's what you get in the Lattissima+ -- pure steamed milk. Huzzah. You have full control over the level of foaminess with a simple knob on top.
Steaming milk at home is usually loud enough to wake the dead; it's just not something you do if you expect anyone to remain asleep anywhere in the house. The Lattissima+ changes that -- it's genuinely quiet when steaming.Read more ›

Very Quick Frother
Simply fill the milk frother up and press the Latte or Cappuccino button to create your desired drink. In less than a minute, you'll be enjoying some fine espresso and milk.
My honest assessment is that while the milk is good, it's not as frothy or "velvety' as the Aeroccino Plus. Plus, I prefer to add the milk on top of the coffee for a better mix, vs. the separation that is created with the Lattissima Plus. It's much faster than having to clean the Aeroccino, but not as tasty.
There is also some downsides that I'm surprised I haven't read about until I unwrapped my new Nespresso.
The instruction manual advises that any milk left in the frother should only be kept for two days and then discarded. This isn't much of an issue as the frother isn't very large, so two days is about all it honestly holds.
Following each drink using the frother, you'll need to press the "clean" button for about 10 seconds. Again - no issue.
But the next cleaning tip is what may restrict many people from using it in an office environment or having to re-evaluate how user-friendly it is.
You are advised to disassemble the "Rapid Cappuccino System" and "put all components in the upper drawer of the dishwasher at least twice a week". I don't typically need to use my dishwasher twice per week, so this is certainly an added task.
Don't get me wrong, the machine is great, but once you start integrating heated milk into the equation, just make sure you are also ready for the added maintenance requirements.

GREAT LAKES, Ill. (NNS) -- Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) Adm. John Richardson and Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy (MCPON) Mike Stevens visited The Quarterdeck of the Navy and the Navy's only boot camp here, Feb. 27.
CNO and MCPON toured Recruit Training Command (RTC) facilities, including the Navy's largest battle stations simulator USS Trayer, a 210-foot-long replica of an Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer. CNO and MCPON also visited Division 145 in the USS Hopper ship barracks. Recruits demonstrated how they were working and adapting to MCPON's e-Sailor initiative, being conducted and tested at RTC by Naval Service Training Command's (NSTC) Information Technology (N6) and Strategy and Analysis (N5) directorates.
"We strive to provide premier education and training by using the most dynamic learning and development processes," said Rear Adm. Stephen Evans, NSTC commander, who oversees RTC. "We cultivate a culture of personal and professional growth for life-long learning, training and service. The e-Sailor initiative also assists us to anticipate and respond to emerging training needs to meet fleet requirements."
The goal of the e-Sailor initiative and use of e-tablets is to increase the quality of work and quality of life of both recruits and Recruit Division Commanders (RDCs). NSTC staff members and RTC are working to integrate the e-tablets in recruit's training curriculum. This technology is already prevalent in elementary through high schools across the nation, creating a seamless educational transition from civilian to Sailor.
"I am encouraged to see the progress made using tablets for training," said Richardson. "This initiative was started by MCPON Mike Stevens and has really taken off and we're seeing the improvements already."
In 2014, Stevens proposed the e-Sailor initiative to Naval Service Training Command (NSTC) for testing at RTC. In April of 2015 the first division was issued e-tablets. Since then, three more divisions have undergone testing with the e-tablets, including Divisions 145 and 146 currently in training. The NSTC-RTC team have worked to develop protocol for the use, care, and programming of the tablets. Each e-tablet will enable recruits easy access to Navy educational apps, Navy instructions, The Bluejacket's Manual, U. S. Navy ship classifications, Rates and Ranks, training videos, testing and more. The RDCs will also have a quick reference to what recruits use most on the e-tablets to aid in their training.
"During this final cycle of the Pre-pilot, NSTC has deployed iOS tablets (iPads). This will allow the e-Sailor team to monitor the infrastructure and operating requirements associated with this platform to better prepare us for the large scale Pilot that will take place this Spring," said John Drake, NSTC's director of N5. "Additionally, this is the first time we will be able to obtain feedback regarding two new apps we have developed. First, "Ships and Aircrafts" is a flashcard style app to help recruits identify more than 100 naval ships, aircraft and associated equipment. Second, U. S. Military Rank and Reference is a game/reference based app to educate recruits on the visual identification of cross-service ranks."
Drake said once this current cycle is completed, NSTC and RTC will initiate the large scale Pilot. "During that phase we will evaluate tablets across iOS, Android, and Windows platforms. In addition, we will continue to integrate new content that is currently in development," he said.
After the brief MCPON said he was more excited with how the e-Sailor initiative was progressing since he launched the program.
"I'm very excited with where e-Sailor is going," MCPON Stevens said. "I'm very grateful to the staff at NSTC and RTC for their willingness to embrace the e-Sailor program and understand the value of it. I think this is going to help shape our Navy as we move forward into the 21st Century and ensure that we remain relevant."
CNO and MCPON also toured RTC's largest structure, the 173,000 square-foot three-story Freedom Hall Physical Fitness facility. Freedom Hall is where recruits train and take their three Physical Fitness Assessments (PFAs) during boot camp. CNO and MCPON also were able to observe a weekly Captain's Cup competition between soon-to-be-graduating recruit divisions. Captain's Cup is a series of relay races and physical shipboard-style challenges, from caring for a simulated injured shipmate to handling mooring lines. The Navy's top officer and enlisted Sailors also sat down with the NSTC and RTC leadership to further discuss the way-forward of accessions training for the Navy and budgetary concerns.
"Having the Navy's most senior leadership tour the Quarterdeck of the Navy provides a valuable chance for us to not only showcase our facilities and the professionalism of our staff, but to also demonstrate the progress we are making in implementing high-velocity learning through the e-Sailor initiative at the Navy's only boot camp," said Capt. Doug Pfeifle, commanding officer, RTC. "This program offers the recruits a tremendous opportunity to interface with technology during their training, making for a more streamlined transition from boot camp, to 'A' schools, and out to the Fleet."
"Visiting Great Lakes was inspirational," added Richardson. "The recruits are full of spirit and determination - it was great to see the next generation of Sailors being trained. The entire command was professional - an amazing blend of challenge, respect, mission, and integrity. The RDCs are a hard-working and high-performing team with a very important job. I look forward to coming back for another visit!"
NSTC oversees 98 percent of initial officer and enlisted accessions training for the Navy, as well as the Navy's Citizenship Development program. NSTC includes RTC, NROTC units at more than 160 colleges and universities, Officer Training Command (OTC) at Naval Station Newport, Rhode Island, and Navy Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps (NJROTC) and Navy National Defense Cadet Corps (NNDCC) citizenship development programs at more than 600 high schools worldwide.
