First Woman Elected to League Board
The notoriously masculine world of English football changed a little here on Wednesday when Lorraine Rogers, chairman of First Division Tranmere became the first woman to be elected on to the Football League board.
The 37-year-old former director of Hambro's Bank joins the six-member board as replacement for Wolves' John Richards, who is no longer eligible to stand as he is not a director at the Molineux club.
The Football League, the representative body for clubs in England's First, Second and Third Divisions, believe it is the first time a woman has ever held such a high office in the sport, although Rogers is playing down the significance of her election.
Rogers said: "I am not in favor of positive discrimination of any kind. I believe I should be judged on the work I do, not my gender."
After taking over the chairman's role at Prenton Park in June last year, Rogers is still a relative newcomer to football's internal machine.
She initially intends to raise certain questions about the way the Football League is run as part of a 'healthy debate'.
Rogers also believes the Football League should become more pro-active rather than just reacting to dictates laid down from their counterparts at the Premier League and Football Association.
With former Football League chief executive Richard Scudamore now employed in a similar role at the Premier League, Rogers feels her organization has a friendly ear into which they can speak and voice their concerns for the future of the game.
At the top of that list is the confusion surrounding the legality of the current transfer system, which has been questioned by the European Commission.
"There are deep concerns about this issue because it could possibly affect Football League clubs more than anyone else," said Rogers.
"It is hard to resist the argument that sport should not be treated separately from other industries and we have produced a joint document with the Premier League and Professional Footballers' Association to that effect" -- LONDON (AFP)

Setnor Byer Insurance & Risk
Business Insurance Needs, cyber security, Cyber Liability Insurance
In February 2013, President Obama issued Executive Order 13636 on Improving Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity. This Order calls for the development of a framework of industry standards and best practices to help organizations manage increasing cybersecurity risks. On February 12, 2014, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) responded to the President's order with its Cybersecurity Framework.
The Cybersecurity Framework, which was created in collaboration with the private sector, focuses on using business drivers to guide cybersecurity activities. It is a risk-based approach that uses common language to address and manage cybersecurity risks in a business-specific, cost effective way. This voluntary framework is made up of three parts, each of which reinforces the connection between business drivers and cybersecurity activities.
The Framework Core provides a set of activities designed to achieve specific cybersecurity outcomes. The core is made up of five broad functions that help organizations express their management of cybersecurity risks.
Identify: Develop organizational understanding to manage cybersecurity risks to systems, assets, data and capabilities.
Protect: Develop and implement appropriate safeguards to ensure delivery of critical infrastructure services.
Detect: Develop and implement appropriate activities to identify the occurrence of a cybersecurity event.
Respond: Develop and implement appropriate activities to respond to a cybersecurity event.
Recover: Develop and implement appropriate activities to maintain operations and restore capabilities or services impaired by a cybersecurity event.

Did you know that April is National Distracted Driving Awareness Month? If not, it's time to take notice. According to
All SCOTUS is able to give is a request for compromise.
You may need commercial auto insurance, if you drive for any form of compensation.
Industry experts estimate that 80% of employers will offer telemedicine by 2018. So what exactly is this trending health care
If you want to save money (and c'mon, who doesn't want that), check out our post on Auto Savings!
"But that's my therapy dog!"
For the first time, all applicable large employers must comply with the Affordable Care Act's annual healthcare reporting requirements. Employers that averaged at least 50 full-time or full-time equivalent employees in 2014 must report specific 2015 healthcare information to the Internal Revenue Service. Reports for calendar year 2015 are due in early 2016, so time is running out. Or is it?
To reduce the chances of making the list in 2015, preventative measures must be taken by every business that accepts credit and debit card payments.
Though some of these benefits, like pre-paid legal service plans, are clearly not health-related, others may provide employees with some health-related benefits.
According to the Insurance Information Institute, drivers should take the following steps immediately after an accident:
Though holiday parties can create a positive work environment, increase employee morale and promote teamwork, they can also expose employers to a number of potentially significant risks.
With breaches becoming more common and more expensive, businesses are now discovering that steps must be taken to protect against data security breaches.
Workers' compensation insurance provides indemnity and medical benefits to employees injured on the job.
Sometimes a condominium association needs to enter an owner's unit, which is why Florida's Condominium Act gives associations an irrevocable right of access.
Employers will soon have new rules to follow after experiencing workplace injuries and illnesses.

40 skiers in our group outing and Wendy ( owner) was fantastic.
She prepared their specialty pretzels WOW and other après delights. Very friendly and we had a blast
Delicious beers, and scrumptious vittles! The pretzel rolls are to die for, and the pizza pretzel rolls are amazing! Highly recommend the grilled cheese and tomato soup.... we worked our way through the menu and didn't find anything we didn't love!
The service is great, friendly staff and great location. You can ski in ski out and hang out in...
I think I had some kind of turkey and bacon panini, a pale ale (New Belgium), and we were right on the mountain. You can't beat that. Plus I think they have some music on Friday nights, you can't beat that either. Plus we had the pleasure of meeting the owner and he was also most chill. And you can't...
Had lunch here on our last day. Wait staff was great and we had the usual bar snacks. Nice way to end our stay in Snowmass.
Order a Bombay sapphire Tom Collins and I must say it's one of the better ones I've had. Decided I should probably eat and order a awesome panini called the TBG, it had sliced turkey, bacon, and guacamole with pepper jack cheese. Since I'm not a fan of gauc I got it without still amazing. Came with kettle chips and...
A friendly mix of locals and tourists hanging out and enjoying good food and the great craft creations from New Belgium after a day on the mountain. Wendy and her staff were excellent, made us feel like we were right at home! The food was simple and very good. I really enjoyed the wide variety of beer and cider options...
We've eaten at this place at the upper mall just outside the Westin once every visit to Snowmass. The pizza pretzels are tasty. The grilled chicken good. My wife enjoys their salads. The hotdogs are filling with or without the chili and cheese. But the best thing - the s'mores kits that you'll use right outside.
This place is right on the mountain, you can ski in and out. The indoor seating is very uncomfortable with these high bar stools (backless) and narrow tables which is a problem when you have all your gear with you - helmets, jackets, gloves, etc. it was super hot in there too.
We ordered 3 panini sandwiches and they weren't...
We didn't eat here, but it's a laid back fun place to grab a beer or apres ski cocktail. The service was fast and friendly. Great fire pit and location, too.
So this is located at the top of the cab type gondola on the right side of the ski slope at Snowmass. It is a great stop for a drink or lunch or light fare. We stopped in after a day of skiing and enjoyed a drink and sitting outside next to the gas fire pit. There is ample seating...

There really aren't many people who could pull off trousers as huge as Daisy Lowe's. The model wore the wide-leg Jenny Packham style to the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition private view on Wednesday evening and seriously, and seriously deserves a medal for her style bravery.
The pair have yet to actually confirm they're a couple, but we're guessing things are pretty official as they were also spotted at the Glamour Awards together earlier in the week... Sam even referred to DL as his "wife" on Twitter.
Team that with the sheer abundance of loved-up selfies the "couple" have splashed all over Instagram lately and surely they've got themselves a true romance.
See all the best pics from the star-studded event in the gallery below.
MORE! We guess these latest revelations mean Daisy and One Direction heart-throb Harry Styles aren't a thing then? Watch to find out...

The Dangers of Overapplying
In hard economic times, job seekers often apply for more than one role at the same company. While at first glance, this may seem to increase your odds, it may actually hurt them. Read on.
What Recruiters Think
The danger of applying for many jobs with the same company is that recruiters may feel like you haven't really reviewed the job requirements, and this can give you a bad mark. If there are sincerely several positions that you're interested in and qualified for, that's one thing, but recruiters may feel like you're desperate for a job and that you don't really care about the role(s) you're applying for.
I like what Marsha Freedman says about overapplying: "make sure that every application you submit conveys authenticity in terms of your ability and desire to do the job."
When to Overapply
Sometimes, applying for multiple roles is acceptable. If a company has several communications positions available, it's acceptable to apply for them. A larger company may have openings for a roles in different areas of communications and if you possess qualifications in employee communications and media relations, it would make sense to apply for multiple roles since they are addressing different areas of the communications department. But don't apply for marketing, finance and admin roles. It looks bad on your part.
Same goes for PR agency jobs. Because a PR agency hires mostly PR people, you'll probably find several openings that match your interests. Don't apply to each one individually. Be selective and pick those that are most relevant to your expertise.
If the company has several openings, rather than applying to ten in one sitting, explain your interest in your cover letter. Mention that you are interested in several positions and list them out. Explain why you are applying for more than one role (get that big elephant out of the room).
Ensure that your skills truly are a solid fit for the roles. Don't apply for multiple jobs just to "increase your chances." You really won't. And like Marsha said, only apply for jobs you'd love having.
But You Really, Really Want the Job!
If you truly think a role is ideal for you but you don't hear back, follow up with an email to see if the recruiter or hiring manager has chosen a candidate. If you were told you weren't chosen after an interview, you can always ask why. You might not be exactly what they were looking for internally, through no fault of your own and you might get some additional helpful feedback.
Even if you weren't selected, always thanks the recruiting or hiring manager for the consideration and ask to be kept in mind for similar roles in the future. Make sure they know you are serious about wanting to work for their company, not just any company.

I was here recently while filming my LI doc. and maybe my parents brought me here when I was 3. It sits on the LI Heritage Trail which is just gaining popularity since its designation this year. The place is very well peserved and has origional furnishings. I bought some string licorice (black one) here along with traditional LI music. I never even knew there was traditional LI music. There is a 1920 Apothecary feel inside with all old bottles and jars on shelves that look untouched since World War ll. The general store is in a stones throw of Deepwells Farm. Its definately worth a stop

I like to pick up the flip-mats and map packs when I stop by the FLGS but as I mostly play the APs I feel like my money is kinda getting wasted. With the exception of the Anniversary of Rise of the Runelords, I can't think of another AP that uses a flip mat. Is there a way they can be utilized in the APs in a way similar to the PFS scenarios?
I'm running, and really enjoying this AP. My group is about at the end of book 2 and everyone is really invested and kicking butt. But I've noticed something that is making me wonder. Is this AP a bit shorter than others?
What I mean by that question is that to this point I have run Shattered Star, Jade Regent, Wrath of the Righteous and Kingmaker and those seemed to be a lot denser in terms of the amount of encounters. Am I imagining things or are there less encounters and more background, story in this AP that the later ones? If this is the case, is it similarly the case in other early APs?
Second Darkness
A strange light in the sky holds a danger unknown for ten thousand years! Deep beneath Golarion's surface, the greatest shame of the elves is stirring once more. Seething with hatred, the drow have come up with a plan to wipe out their ancient enemies and bring a second Age of Darkness. And this time, there's only the heroes to stop them...
In the Second Darkness Adventure Path, the heroes venture from the Varisian pirate haven of Riddleport to an island overrun by extraterrestrial terrors, a fallen forest capital of the elves, the subterranean realm of the drow (where they are disguised as drow themselves), intrigue-laden elven courts, and a mysterious realm forgotten by time itself, known as the Land of Black Blood.
When: Thursdays at 1PM EST. I usually run for aprox. 4 hours.
Tools: Maptools v.91, Ventrillo for voice chat both IC and OOC, and Skype for out of game chat.
Books: I'm open to all PF books and will consider 3rd party content on a case by case basis.
Post or PM me your interest, character concept and age.
Posting first does not guarantee position. Interesting concepts are considered first.
I have a kineticist in my Wrath of the Righteous game who made his grand appearance yesterday being able to heal at lvl 3 for 2d8+4 handing the 3 burn off to those healed or to absorb himself. So with the burn equating to Non Lethal HP this build seems to have an insane capacity to hand out heals that is superior to a Life Oracle of similar level with could channel for 2d6 or CMW for 2d8+3 a very limited number of times. On top of that, the build could also dish out the same amount as a ranged attack option. So being the minion that I am, I find reading the Kineticist mechanics mind boggling, can someone break this down for me. Was the kineticist played right or are there some mechanic issues I need to be made aware of.
Here is his build now that he's leveled to 4:
I would really love to see some more interest in Tian Xia. Looking back a few years now from the Year of the Ruby Phoenix Tournament, not much has come out in this area aside from the occasional PFS scenario. So my hope and plea here is that you guys might consider a level 1-4 module, similar in design to the amazing Dragons Demand, only set in Tian Xia are themes appropriate to that area. Being low level it could be a nice launchpad into ongoing home campaigns set there, as well as a nice starting point to the popularity of PFS characters built around Tian races and ideas.
Here's to hoping!
I've been reading through several of the non mythic runs of Wrath which are highly useful as I have only just began a similar run of my own. However one thing I keep seeing a bit of disagreement upon is if a Mythic level should equal a Class level of if 2 Mythic Tiers equal a class level. I suppose what I'm seeking is what are the opinions of the forum goers on this account, advantages and drawbacks to one over the other. Thanks in advance.
Star Wars: Dawn of Defiance
Seeing someone running a pbp of this and after watching the Force Awakens, my Star War itch needs scratching. I've always loved the SAGA edition and meant to play this, so no time like the present.
When: Monday evenings 6 PM EST. Set to run for about 3 hours. Campaign may last as long as 10 months.
Forum: Maptools and ventrillo for voice chat. This is not a text chat game, mic is required.
Character Creation: 28 point buy. All Species allowed.
Setting: This adventure takes place months after episode IV A New Hope. Therefore the Galactic Empire is at its height swallowing up worlds and Jedi are outlawed and will be hunted if identified.
As a GM I like to focus on strong characters and will reward players who show initiative. I've been running games online for a long time mostly using Pathfinder and Mutants and Masterminds.
Post interest either here or via PM. I can be reached on skype: trexnco
We are looking for some folks who are interested in playing in a Rise of the Runelords campaign with the Pathfinder rules.
As a group we tend to be more combat focused but can find plenty of room for RP and chatting. All of us are over 30 and understand that things come up but like the idea of getting a bit of social fun around a game table with a mind to creating a shared story-telling experience. As my wife plays, we are a female friendly environment.
If interested, feel free to contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com and we can arrange to share a cup of coffee and talk gaming.. I live very close to Marist College.
When I run my APs I like them to go fast and smooth, as such I'm thinking of moving away from the idea of handing out the loot detailed in the APs. I find that rewarding x number of copper, gold, Platinum and valuable objects combined with mwk or magical this-and-thats, tends to be a bit of a time sink. Especially when it comes to the party dividing the loot and occasional drama that ensues when two players want the same item and looking up item costs for selling all seems to slow down my games. So what Im thinking of doing is rewarding the entire party up to its expected wealth by level each time they level and then let them go shopping on their own (in-between games) with my supervision of whats allowed.
I may lower the pay day if they miss, not bypass, certain treasure rooms or fail in encounters. But otherwise grant them full incremental WBL.
I'm also considering dropping consumables as an exclusion from WBL. So the occasional Cure Light Wounds potion won't hurt them.
So I'm looking for opinions, is this a good idea? What problems may come of such a policy? Are there recommendations I should consider in adapting this?
In considering the Giantslayer AP, I'm mulling over an idea to give Giants an automatic CMB check on their attacks for bull rush or knocking opponents prone (trip). The reason is because while I love giants, they tend to be rather boring inn combat. This might make them more of a menace as well as more cinematic as their great strength and size can send PC's flying.
So what are some thoughts? Would I be completely gimping the melee characters with this?
This is an interest check for a Pathfinder game featuring the Kingmaker Adventure Path. The blurb from Paizo describes it as:
Kingmaker: The wild and dangerous Stolen Lands lie in the northern reaches of the River Kingdoms, realms ripe for the taking! Yet those who would become rulers of these new lands will soon learn that claiming a kingdom and keeping it are two different beasts. Can the heroes protect their lands from jealous and deadly enemies?
Time: Monday evenings EST
Programs required: Maptools 87, ventrillo and skype. I use voice chat for both IC and OoC.
Character creation: Use the 20 point build system starting with 150 gps. I'm open to third party content so long as it makes sense to the power level and setting.
I'm an experienced GM with a good deal of experience running online. I recently completed the Shattered Star AP and am interested to explore this one. To measure my play style I think I can split RP and combat at around 50-50. I like strong characters with big personalities but also enjoy a good battle. I'm not a rules lawyer GM but rather prefer to live by Rule of Cool, in other words if you got a great scene I'm willing to work with you to make it happen.
Let me know if your interested. The game wont start till early May.
I had a wonderful time running 5 tables of the Glass River Rescue. At all my tables I had both new and veteran players looking to have a good time and I think I delivered. I got a lot of positive feedback on my GMing that has me feeling really good about the experience. I definitely am going to volunteer to GM PFS at GenCon again! On that note, let me pass along some kudos to thelich who ran a great game of Wardstone. He didn't even use a map for the game but had us all immersed in the action. Well done!
Take the time and give some of the GMs who did a good job a shout out!
As the title says, I'd really like to get a races of Golarion for the Kitsune book. It could cover several of the different themes they bring to the game such as the Japanese fox-human, the Annubis Dog-Man thing - perhaps based out of Osirion, maybe a take on the Coyote myth so popular among the Native Americans, and perhaps some manwolf thing out of Ustalov. Furthermore with an expanded race on the Kitsune it might even open up some of the Shifter fluff from 3.5 and 4e.
Just a suggestion hope it gains some interest.
I'd really like to see more outdoor flipmats rather than the Dungeon ones which are always too situational for my needs. Some of the things I'd like to see:
1. Winter Forest - another forest with snow on the ground.
2. A proper Desert one without statues and oasis like the previous.
3. A jungle for those Mwangi games
4. An Airship/sky map - I know its a bit odd but sometimes aerial combat happens.
5. Hellscape Worldwound style burnt out landscape
6. Farmstead - A small farm with space for the pigs and creepy scarecrow
7. City Scenes - I'd love a few selections here, flip mat of slums, arab bazaar, and more streets.
I'm prepping to run the Shattered Star: Shards of Sin at the FLGS as a PFS module. So the expectation is that the PFS requirements be met within a 6 hour slot. I'm looking at the rules that govern Shattered Star and it begins with B1 and ends with D15. Altogether this amounts to 8 levels of dungeon grinding!!!!
I'm currently running Shattered Star as a home game as well and when played this particular part, with an admittedly high RP group, it took 4 game sessions to cover this amount of material.
Have others found this to be a bit much for a 6 hour slot?
I ran Thornkeep at the FLGS and will run it again tomorrow at a Con and there was one encounter I had issue with and would like to hear some others thoughts on it:
As a lvl 1-2 module, all of the characters last night, and I anticipate tomorrow will be new characters. With that in mind the Shadow turned into a pretty nasty encounter with its incorporeal condition making it immune to most lvl 1 characters ability to do significant damage.
How I ran it, was let the party make an intimidate check after it got a burn from the Clerics channel energy.
How do other GMs play this out to prevent it from turning into a game stopper, especially when running for potentially brand new players?
Over the last few months Ive had a couple of players use this spell and the problems it creates are making me wonder how other PFS GMs deal with it.
My first problem is the reaction of other players. For example I recently had a table composed mostly of strangers, another one of more regular players with a new person to the group playing an Animate Dead focused character. In both tables there was a Paladin and several other good aligned characters. When the Animate Dead specialized cleric began raising his platoon (one of the games was high tier and he raised 18 HD of zombies, I made sure he marked down the cost of onyx gem and he had the purchases already recorded on his chronicle sheet) the other characters were really put off by it and as a GM it took a lot to get the game back on track by asking players to make RP compromises and allowances. Was this a mistake on my part? I know there is no PVP in PFS and I felt it was inching close to that with the souring tone the RP was taking on.
The next problem is managing 18 or less HD on undead. I know the FAQ suggests 1 combat pet, but these aren't pets. It seems like it falls somewhere between a Pet and a Summon Monster as they stick around for the entire game. My inclination was to invoke the pet rule.
The final problem was that it is a spell with the evil descriptor. In a home game/AP casting this spell frequently would have implications to ones alignment yet in PFS thats not the case for unless I am making a mistake, there is mechanic of tracking influences upon a characters alignment from scenario to scenario. How do other GMs handle these issues?
So I have a player itching to do Lyrics of Extinction because he heard there is a Chronicle item - +2 Cloak of Charisma, an item traditionally part of Pathfinder. Other items have come up as well such as a Potion of See Invisibility, again not traditionally part of Pathfinder. As a GM how should I handle them? Equate them as a unique item and let them buy it? If so would a +2 Cloak of Charisma stack with a headband of Charisma?
After playing in a few Cons over the last few weeks I have to ask are PFS scenarios too long for the the 4 hour block of time required to complete them. The reason I ask is that in every game (5 total) I played in at a recent Con the GM had to either pull some shenanigans like skipping or narrating us through encounters to get to the end or we failed due to time constraints. Admittedly Im a heavy RPer and like to interact with other players and deal with diplomacy issues in character which Im guessing can slow things down a bit. But Im wondering if this is a shared experience among Con goers or something that is particular to my experiences.
EDIT: Let me state I had a great time regardless.
Ive rolled up a new character Undead Lord. I know a lot of the actions he does walks the line with evil but I am trying to play him neutral and sympathic (maybe even pathetic). He follows the NE goddess Urgathoa in a misguided way.
A bit of his backstory, he lost family members to a plague and now seeks to find the cures to various ailments. However his research has led him to near successes - undead. He is also a grave digger by profession and often walks about with the old Monty Python, "bring out your dead" call. Loads of fun.
So Im concerned that other players and GMs in our RPG community might react to him as evil. What are some bits of advice I can use to balance the alignment of the character as True Neutral while often engaged in activity so often associated as evil?
In my game the other day, I ran a new group of old players through Crypt of the Everflame. One of the players is a witch and for a little RP fun, I decided to RP the witch's familiar as being demanding. So to give the witch his spells I required him to get 4 hair strands from one PC, feed it the corpse of a recently slain enemy (its a centipede), and taste the blood of another PC who was injured. The player took it in stride and enjoyed the RP.
That being said, my question is fair or foul?
With the Witches Familiar described:
"Generally feared and misunderstood, the witch draws her magic from a pact made with an otherworldly power. Communing with that source, using her familiar as a conduit, the witch gains not only a host of spells, but a number of strange abilities known as hexes. As a witch grows in power, she might learn about the source of her magic, but some remain blissfully unaware."
later emphasized as:
"At 1st level, a witch forms a close bond with a familiar, a creature that teaches her magic and helps to guide her along her path. Familiars also aid a witch by granting her skill bonuses, additional spells, and help with some types of magic. "
Should the GM spice things up on the RP side by making the witches familiar more than a walking spell book? What about in Pathfinder Society play?
Ive just recently put together a group for running the Jade Regent AP and at least half the party have built their characters around tripping, grappling and pinning the bad guys. Some of the examples are a Druid with the giant frog companion (grapple, pull) and a Maneuver Master Half-Giant monk that can take most BBEGs out of a fight within a round. All are properly built and played by smart and cool people. So my advice question, what are some of the ways I can put together new and interesting challenges to them while not making their builds useless?

A strong response to selection on mass-independent maximal metabolic rate without a correlated response in basal metabolic rate

- Abstract:
- Metabolic rates are correlated with many aspects of ecology, but how selection on different aspects of metabolic rates affects their mutual evolution is poorly understood. Using laboratory mice, we artificially selected for high maximal mass-independent metabolic rate (MMR) without direct selection on mass-independent basal metabolic rate (BMR). Then we tested for responses to selection in MMR and correlated responses to selection in BMR. In other lines, we antagonistically selected for mice with a combination of high mass-independent MMR and low mass-independent BMR. All selection protocols and data analyses included body mass as a covariate, so effects of selection on the metabolic rates are mass adjusted (that is, independent of effects of body mass). The selection lasted eight generations. Compared with controls, MMR was significantly higher (11.2%) in lines selected for increased MMR, and BMR was slightly, but not significantly, higher (2.5%). Compared with controls, MMR was significantly higher (5.3%) in antagonistically selected lines, and BMR was slightly, but not significantly, lower (4.2%). Analysis of breeding values revealed no positive genetic trend for elevated BMR in high-MMR lines. A weak positive genetic correlation was detected between MMR and BMR. That weak positive genetic correlation supports the aerobic capacity model for the evolution of endothermy in the sense that it fails to falsify a key model assumption. Overall, the results suggest that at least in these mice there is significant capacity for independent evolution of metabolic traits. Whether that is true in the ancestral animals that evolved endothermy remains an important but unanswered question

The Texas Republican Party is on very safe and familiar ground with its new position on medical marijuana. Through the good graces of the DMN's Austin bureau chief, Christy Hoppe, here is the language the state GOP adopted on Saturday on weed:
"We urge the Texas Legislature to allow, encourage, and facilitate the study at our Texas medical schools the safety and efficacy of medical cannabis."
In other words, "We're sticking with the status quo." As Hoppe reported over the weekend, a platform committee had advanced a proposal that would have allowed MMJ, but that didn't make it past the full convention.
According to a Breitbart report, the proposed plank had said this:
"We believe that Texans should have legal access to cannabis as a controlled narcotic prescribed by a physician."
Of course the party wasn't going to go that far. It would have been going beyond where AG Greg Abbott had gone with his status quo position earlier this year.
This is not a priority issue for the GOP, one way or the other. Where some members don't mind being occasionally "smart on crime" -- meaning sometimes they'll go along with cheaper alternatives to the state's monstrously expensive prison system -- they're not going out of their way to do anything that looks sympathetic to potheads who may face a little jail time. If that means opposing medical MJ, so be it.
The language of the defeated plank did itself no favors. The word "narcotic" is rarely applied to pot these days. This overstates the documented pain-relieving effect of the weed and falls into the DEA's hardline approach that marijuana is a Schedule One danger.
Absent from the adopted plank is any insistence that regulating and prosecuting recreational drugs is a states-rights matter. That's Rick Perry's position, but he's not the Texas GOP's man of the moment.
Plus, does any GOP supporter of the adopted plank really give a whit whether our state universities spend a minute studying the benefits of medicinal pot? Nope. If a university researcher wanted to get some government-approved herb to study, it's not an easy matter.
The journal Nature reported that there's one federal grow site that might be the source for legit researchers, and there's a maze of red tape to negotiate. In other words, the GOP plank should have tacked on the words, "And good luck."
It turns out that the Houston Chronicle's Baker Institute blog has put up a range of views on the idea of changing Texas' marijuana laws. The Statesman has posted two pieces on the subject, one from the ACLU and one from an opponent. The opponent, who heads the Drug Free America Foundation, looked down her nose this way at pot vacationers who head to Colorado: "Colorado experienced an infestation of 'drug tourism.' "
I don't imagine people consider Napa Valley wine tourism an "infestation," too. Napa Valley tourists will spend tons more more money and sport fewer tattoos. They may head to Napa to get a buzz, but it's a refined, expensive buzz.

Hi all, I moved back to Philly from Milan last year and recently had my Italian motorcycle shipped here. My question is regarding registration - do I need to get a PA license plate immediately or can I drive my bike with its Italian plate for up to a year? I know that this is the case for foreign drivers' licenses, but it's not clear whether that applies to vehicles with foreign plates as well.
I already have it insured here, but there is quite a bit of paperwork to get it registered so I'd like to start riding it with my Italian license plate in the meantime, if it's legal.
Thanks in advance!

At the Firefly Gate by Linda Newbery
Book DescriptionHenry never quite fits in. He feels like an outsider - and about to become even more so when his family move to the country and the prospect of a new secondary school looms. He retreats more and more into his shell, until he meets Dottie a frail old lady, but one with tremendous spirit. He feels as though he knows her, as though they have been friends for many years. And as she tells him about her wartime romance with an RAF navigator also called Henry, so our Henry is drawn into that world. In a series of mysterious, sometimes frightening events he re-enacts Henry's life...and learns that despite being dreadfully afraid, Henry acted heroically at the cost of his own life. Only our Henry knows the true story and it shows him a way through his own self doubts and misgivings.

Set in Stone, Paperback (July 2015)» View all books by Linda Newbery
When Samuel Godwin, a young and naive art tutor, accepts a job with the Farrow family at Fourwinds, their majestic home, little does he expect to come across such a web of secrets and lies.
US Kirkus Review » Carnegie-nominee Newbery successfully interjects a supernatural storyline into a well-crafted, contemporary narrative about a pre-teen boy's adjustment to a new household. After moving with his parents from London to a rural English village, small, 11-year-old Henry not only worries about making new friends, but he is concerned about the nocturnal appearances of a mysterious, cigarette-smoking man at his garden gate. In a consistently subtle manner, Newbery parses out clues about the identity of the spectral stranger - a WWII airman - and the man's relationship with Henry's kind-hearted, elderly neighbor, Dottie. The sensitive Henry seems to make friends at his new school a bit too easily, yet his strained relationship with Dottie's moody, sometimes mean-spirited teenaged niece is convincing. While it may be too slow for some modern sensibilities, this beautifully written, atmospheric novel is cut from the same character-centered cloth as such classic British ghost stories as Phillipa Pearce's Tom's Midnight Garden and Lucy Boston's Children of Green Knowe books. In addition, readers will get an engaging glimpse of 20th-century English military history. A worthwhile addition to any collection. (Fiction. 10-14) (Kirkus Reviews)

Sepp Blatter, the Fifa president, has warned Spain that its leading clubs and international side could be banned from international competitions if their government meddles with the Spanish FA.
Blatter said that it "would take only six hours" to call an emergency meeting to exclude Spain. Blatter wants the Spanish government to backtrack on a decision forcing the country's non-Olympic sports bodies to hold elections before the Olympic Games in Beijing this summer.
The wrangling could conceivably throw a life-line to Northern Ireland, who finished in third place behind Spain and Sweden, in their Euro 2008 qualifying group.

text: BELFAST NEWSLETTER Published Date: 14 January 2011 Sculpture set to mark courage of UDR The UDR, whose successor the RIR was presented with the Conspicuous Gallantry Cross by the Queen in 2006, is to be honoured with a new sculpture in Lisburn A SCULPTURE dedicated to the memory of all those who served with the Ulster Defence Regiment is being erected in the Co Antrim town where the regiment was formed. Described as "heroic" in stature, the 19ft monument features a pair of bronze figures on a Mourne granite plinth and is due to be unveiled in Lisburn city centre in the spring. The two bronzes capture the image of a male UDR soldier and a female 'Greenfinch' on operational duty. Whiteabbey-based sculptor John Sherlock was commissioned by the UDR Memorial Trust to work on the project and recently travelled to Edinburgh to oversee the final casting process. The internationally-renowned artist's other recent public works include life-size bronzes of Professor Frank Pantridge, Harry Ferguson, and a large scale bronze relief tribute to the RUC at FBI headquarters in Washington. "Everyone involved in the Lisburn sculpture has put their heart and soul into it and I couldn't have had a better group to work for," Mr Sherlock said. "I don't think I could have got a better commission for a more justifiable project I hope it strengthens the resolve of all those who served." It has been almost two years since the original concept was devised, with Lisburn chosen due to its close association with the UDR. The regiment was formed there in 1970. Lt Colonel Wesley Duncan is one of those behind the initiative to erect the 19ft bronze monument. The UDR Memorial Trust chairman of trustees said work on the project is "in the finishing stages". "The plinth has already been constructed and is on site in Lisburn in Market Square. Of the two figures, the Greenfinch is complete at the foundry in Edinburgh and the soldier is almost complete." Lt Col Duncan said the memorial was dedicated to all who served with the regiment. "The memorial is to recognise the service of over 50,000 people over the years not just those who died or were injured. "This initiative came from ex-members to have a memorial erected... and the primary driving force has been the members of the regimental association. "We believe it will be a ?tting tribute to their dedication to duty, courage and the stress which it brought to their families." The chair of trustees added: "The regiment was formed in Lisburn, and it is appropriate therefore that the memorial is being erected there. The trustees are delighted and grateful that Lisburn City Council have granted permission for the memorial to be erected on a prominent site in Market Square." Lagan Valley MP Jeffrey Donaldson said he was delighted the city had been chosen due to its "strong connection" with the regiment. A former UDR member, Mr Donaldson said: "The people of Lisburn will be very proud of this statue which is being erected to commemorate the enormous sacrifice and the invaluable contribution made by the men and women of the UDR in bringing peace to Northern Ireland." Basil McCrea, of the Ulster Unionists, also paid tribute to the UDR and said it was fitting that a city with "such a strong military tradition" should honour the regiment. The Lagan Valley MLA added: "It's only right and proper that those who have served the community so well get their due recognition." In September 2007 the city erected a separate tribute to eight UDR soldiers from the Lisburn area who made the ultimate sacrifice. Sitting in the shadow of the main war memorial in Castle Street, the Ulster Defence Regiment memorial stone includes the name of Maynard Crawford a part-time UDR sergeant murdered by the IRA in 1972 as he sat in a van on a Newtownabbey building site. Sgt Crawford was the brother of local Ulster Unionist councillor Ronnie Crawford and was the first Lisburn member of the regiment to be killed.

"Framing Sexual Assault: The Public Health Model and Sexual Violence Prevention"
Friday, April 8, 1-2 p.m.
Urban Center -Parsons Gallery, Room 212>
A facilitated discussion by Sandra Clark, M.P.H. and Torrie Bordokoff, M.P.H. Candidate
This is a discussion-based hour in which we'll analyze how media framing of sexual violence influences our solutions and our ideas about prevention as social change activists, public health workers, and community members. We're going to discuss the public health model not only as an approach to sexual violence prevention, but as a specific framing device for how we discuss, think about, and respond to sexual violence portrayals in the media. Participants will be given tools to do media framing analysis that will enhance our ability to mobilize communities and advance the discussion about sexual violence prevention.

Music Lesson Reviews from Students
Students are raving about their Music instructors on TakeLessons. Check out some of these recent reviews.

1. Patient: Prodigies or masters of their art often lack the ability to convey their ability on a small scale to their pupils. Steve is an amazing performer and artist, and yet he is humble enough to walk alongside you, particularly when you are establishing the fundamentals of guitar technique. He will find the areas that need work and allow you to see how a small amount of persistence can result in large gains.
2. Encouraging: Steve is always optimistic. You can feel his passion for music in every word he speaks. He has the rare gift of making you see the flashes of your own talent, and he will help you build on those. He will not only help you figure out ways to overcome your obstacles in playing, but he will also deepen your appreciation of the instrument itself. He even went with me to the store to pick out an awesome acoustic guitar!
3. Individualizing: Steve doesn't have a once-size-fits-all method of teaching. He is a very keen and observant instructor who will challenge you based on your progress as well as your natural abilities. He will get to know you as a human being and as a budding artist. He will find ways to allow you to take your own inspirations and use them to drive you forward in your musical exploration.
4. Exemplary: Steve has tremendous integrity, not only as an artist but also as a professional instructor. He is also a tremendous guitarist with a broad repertoire, and watching him play will motivate you to become even better.
I hope this review is helpful to anyone who is considering taking lessons. Sign up with Steve and you won't regret it! Good luck on your journey!"

Very patient and understanding of the learning process. She is very motivating and helps push your limits with music. I would recommend her
Matthew Fisher is both a talented, experienced drummer; as well as being a passionate, friend
I received tuition for around three years from Matt (before I left for University), and I found the experience invaluable. I started with just an interest in drumming, and ended up with a talent and hobby that I still continue to enjoy today. Matt took me through buying a kit, learning the basic beats and rudiments, writing and reading music, playing to music that I enjoy and also broadening the appeal of other genres such as Jazz and Latin drumbeats. In fact I went from being a metal-junkie to being a fan of all music that had an interesting beat!
Matt's teaching style is laidback and friendly, but at the same time focused to achieving your personal goals. For example I was particularly interested in getting to grips with double-bass, so we started by writing some double bass beats that I could perfect and extend on for our next session. On starting each new topic Matt would often perform a short solo as a kind of demonstration of how the skills I would be learning next could be applied, to make them not only interesting but practical (also it is pretty amazing to see Matt show off his talents).
I could not recommend Matt's services highly enough. If you are looking for a friendly and passionate drum teacher who really wants you to learn the way you want and develop the skills you require, then Matthew Fisher is your man!"
