Prepared Remarks of Secretary Shaun Donovan Before the National Coalition for Homeless Veterans
At 2013 NCHV Annual Conference
Wednesday, May 29, 2013
Thank you very much, Pat (Ryan), for that kind introduction and for all the strong leadership that you and John Driscoll have provided over the years.
Please allow me to also recognize my Federal colleagues, Secretary Shinseki and Barbara Poppe, for their exemplary work on this issue. They have been great champions for this cause and I'm proud to call them both friends and partners.
And of course, I'd like to express my deep appreciation to all of you - the members and supporters of the National Coalition for Homeless Veterans. For more than two decades, you have done magnificent work to ensure that our veterans aren't forgotten once they take off the uniform.
Your efforts have provided generations of servicemen and women with renewed hope for their families and their futures. It has been a pleasure to work with you over the years. And I am honored to be back with you at your Annual Conference.
Honoring Our Heroes
We gather here this morning at a very special period for our nation, just a few days after Memorial Day. It's a time to remember those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in defense of American ideals like equality and freedom.
And in recent days, Americans from all walks of life have expressed their respect and gratitude in a variety of ways. We've participated in parades. We've observed moments of silence. And we've gathered with family to honor our fallen heroes.
But as Americans, we must do more to honor all those who have answered the call of duty.
In fact, we have our own duty to look in the mirror and ask ourselves a few simple questions.
While we honor all those we lost too soon, are we doing enough to help the heroes who are still with us? Are we helping them make a healthy transition from service to society? Are we giving them as much as they have given us?
The answer is clear to all of us in this room: no. Having just one homeless veteran is unacceptable. Having close to 60,000 homeless veterans, as we currently do, is, as I've said many times before, a national disgrace. We can't let these forgotten heroes slip through the cracks. We've got to do everything we can to lift them up and help them rejoin the very communities they gave so much to protect. In short, all Americans have our own duty to help veterans in need.
Today, I want to talk about:
• the work the Obama administration has done with partners like you to fulfill this duty;
• the progress we've made in recent years; and,
• what we must do to accelerate this progress to meet the goal of ending veteran homelessness by 2015.
First Term Progress
As all of you know, from our earliest days in office, the Obama administration has been firmly focused on this issue, a commitment that starts from the very top.
Shortly after he took office in 2009, the President said we've got to provide "new help for homeless veterans, because those heroes have a home, it's the country they served: the United States of America. And until we reach a day when not a single veteran sleeps on our Nation's streets, our work remains unfinished."
Clearly, the President is committed to solving this crisis. He recognizes the urgency of this moment - with more than one million service members making the transition to civilian life over the next few years.
Shortly after taking office, he took bold action by putting forth an aggressive agenda designed to confront this challenge. As part of the Recovery Act, he created the Homelessness Prevention and Rapid Re-housing Program—or HPRP.
This effort alone helped prevent and end homelessness for roughly 1.3 million people during one of the most difficult economic chapters in American history. To put that in perspective, that is roughly twice the population of Washington, DC.
So these Recovery Act dollars made a difference for a lot of people, including veterans.
The program provided tens of thousands of servicemen and women with assistance needed to obtain housing – such as security deposits and relocation services. But, all of us in the Administration recognized that this was just a start – and that to fulfill our duty to veterans, we needed a big initiative that solves big problems.
So Opening Doors was launched in 2010. By now, all of you are familiar with the historic nature of this initiative. You know that unlike previous federal efforts, which tried to simply reduce or help the homeless, Opening Doors was the first federal plan designed to end homelessness.
You also know it is the product of 19 federal agencies, working in concert with our local partners, including you, to push for progress. And I'm proud to say that our efforts are working.
As Secretary Shinseki indicated, in recent years, veteran homelessness has dropped 17 percent.
This is the result of a number of important efforts taking place, including that the federal government is working together to confront this issue like never before. It is no secret that, historically, federal agencies have had difficulty getting on the same page.
And it hasn't always been easy for dedicated, community-based stakeholders like you to partner with government either - even when we are all trying to achieve the same goal. That's why the Obama administration has placed a special focus on collaboration.
We've worked to break down the silos between agencies by shifting the focus from bureaucratic procedures to outcomes that improve communities. Take HUD and the VA, for example. Our two agencies are working together like never before. In fact, last year, our two teams were honored with the "Sammie Award" from the Partnership for Public Service in recognition of the great work we've done together.
We have formed a two-year leadership team for the United States Interagency Council on Homelessness, which sets the long-term strategy for the Opening Doors effort. We're also exchanging ideas. We're doing joint interventions. We're holding ourselves accountable for outcomes.
In short, we're complementing each other's efforts rather than complicating them. It hasn't always been easy. You all know that collaboration, especially where large bureaucracies are involved, is not for the faint of heart.
We all recall the early days when our combined efforts weren't where I, Secretary Shinsecki, or all of you wanted them to be. But rather than retreat from the partnership, our teams doubled down on the hard work needed to accelerate progress.
And key to this work was investing taxpayer dollars in the most targeted and effective way - toward the interventions that get the most 'bang for the buck,' particularly in these constrained fiscal times. That's why I'm so proud that we've increasingly incorporated evidence-based practices into our work.
Now, it's no secret that I'm known around town as a "data guy." It's a distinction I'm proud to share with Secretary Shinseki who has a saying: "if I can't see it, I can't fix it." And he's right.
To me, data is more than just a bunch of numbers - it's a roadmap to greater understanding and better decision-making. That's why I started HUDStat in 2010, and invited VA to join us in regular sessions where we are able to take a data-driven management approach to solving veteran homelessness.
Through HUDStat, we are learning, both at the national and local levels where the greatest needs are; where we can make a difference; what is working; and what is not working. Barbara (Poppe), former Deputy Secretary Gould and others from the VA are also intimately involved in HUDStat – and it's paying great dividends. Our stats are translating to strides in a variety of areas.
Case in point is the recent success of HUD-VASH. As all of you know, it's an innovative partnership between our two agencies that combines HUD's Housing Choice Voucher rental assistance with VA's case management and clinical services.
When this Administration took office, the HUD-VASH program was not fulfilling its potential in housing homeless veterans. Resources weren't getting to the neediest veterans fast enough.
It was taking too long to house a veteran. In fact, by the time President Obama was sworn in, less than 1,200 veterans had been housed.
That all changed when HUD and the VA were able to analyze the data and determine how long each step in the process was taking - from identifying a Veteran on the street to getting him or her housed.
This led to problem solving, and identifying actions that needed to be taken by both policymakers and practitioners in order to speed up the process. It also allowed us to better target this important resource to those most in need of the robust services and housing assistance available through this program.
As a result, now, when we identify successes with this data, we build on them. When we see challenges, we solve them. In all, these new evidence-based practices are guiding a much more targeted and effective approach. As a result, more than 42,000 veterans are now in housing - and we are committed to keeping the momentum going.
Key to this goal is the Housing First effort - a new approach in HUD-VASH to combating chronic homelessness. As we all know, homeless veterans often face a variety of other personal challenges - including substance abuse, medical conditions and mental health issues.
And past models demanded that veterans address these issues before they could be offered housing. But all of us here know that the only way to achieve new progress is to challenge old assumptions like these. The Housing First model does this.
This strategy demands that our nation's homeless system respond quickly to the most urgent need of any homeless individual or family - access to permanent housing. Then, around that housing, we build the supports those households need to respond to other challenges in their lives - ranging from healthcare to jobs.
With the assurance of where you're going to sleep each night, it's a lot easier to take additional steps to lead healthier and more productive lives. In fact, HUD did a national study and found that 84 percent of all chronically homeless people were still housed a year after they got placed.
So Housing First is providing people and families with newfound stability. It's doing more than that: it's also saving money. When you take into account the shelters, the emergency rooms and jails - it costs tens of thousands of dollars a year for a homeless person to be on the streets.
So doing nothing costs a lot of money. Doing something, like Housing First, literally saves money. And most importantly, it provides people and families with newfound stability.
It's proven to be another useful tool in fighting veterans homelessness. And I thank Secretary Shinseki, and his team at VA, for joining us in this effort. I also thank the VA and the Labor Department for partnering with us on an innovative effort to prevent homelessness for those returning from Iraq and Afghanistan.
The Veterans Homelessness Prevention Demonstration Program uses $15 million in federal funds to help veterans living near five military installations. For veterans in transition, HUD offers help in areas ranging from security deposits to utility payments.
The VA offers healthcare and benefits. And the Labor Department focuses on job and training opportunities. It's truly a multi-faceted approach that's generating results. In the first year of this demonstration, nearly than 1,400 veterans, spouses and children received services that prevented them from becoming homeless.
Because of these and other initiatives, our nation has made significant headway towards our 2015 goal. In fact, after the most recent PIT count –communities across the country have reported making significant strides. And although the national data is preliminary, all indications are that we've had another year of progress.
Veterans homelessness is dropping. Hope is rising. Momentum is building. And this is something we should applaud. Whenever a hero finds a home, we should all celebrate.
But we can't be content. We cannot rest. We can't back down.
Instead, we've got to double-down on our efforts—and accelerate our progress—if we are going to meet the national 2015 goal.
The Next Chapter: Accelerating Our Progress
With that date fast approaching, we've got to act with urgency in everything we do. We can't waste time. We can't waste opportunities. We've got to work for each other—and with each other—more than ever.
This won't be easy because we are operating in a unique budget climate. So all of us in the Obama administration are working to do more with less by strategically allocating our resources in areas where we can make the most difference for people.
One of these areas is HUD-VASH. Today, I'm proud to announce the first round of 2013 funding. $60 million has been awarded today, to areas around the country, funding approximately 9,000 new vouchers.
This increase, at a time when government is tightening its belt, speaks volumes about the importance of the program and its cost effectiveness. With these additional resources, we'll be able to help even more veterans find housing and maximize the impact for our dollars.
We're also directing resources to Rapid Re-Housing - a pillar of the HPRP program.
Even though HPRP has ended, we want to build on the success of the Rapid Re-Housing portion because it proved to be such an effective tool. What we have found is that about 90% of those who participated remained housed a year later.
That's a tremendous outcome, and more people should experience it. So I'm glad that the VA modeled its own Supportive Services for Veteran Housing after it. And it's also why, in the Fiscal Year 2014 budget, we included a $60 million Rapid Re-Housing set-aside that would allow us to target high-need communities.
We did so because the program works, and with additional resources, we can make it work for more people. The same can be said for our Continuum of Care Homeless Grants. As I said earlier, the evidence is clear: every dollar we spend on programs that help find a stable home for our most vulnerable not only saves money but quite literally saves lives.
According to HUD's latest estimate based on point-in-time counts, the number of people experiencing long-term or chronic homelessness declined nearly 7 percent in the latest year.
So in the FY 14 budget, we requested a 25% increase—or $480 million—for these grants.
With these proposed funds, we want to increase our support of communities that are doing such great work.
We are also urging these communities to examine their own operations, and determine what they can do better, whether it's reallocating funds from underperforming or less compelling projects to create new initiatives focused on veterans and the chronically homeless; or making existing beds available as soon as they turnover to help those most in need.
I don't want to minimize the difficulty of these local conversations. In many cases, we are talking about passionate, dedicated providers having to shift the populations they prioritize and the kind of services they provide.
I know it is not easy to change a business model that's been in place for decades. But it's often required, especially if we are going to meet the ambitious goals we all seek. That's why we at HUD and VA are here to help you through this challenging process. And we look forward to working with you on addressing your challenges.
We also want to work with you to raise awareness about the opportunities out there. Take the issue of health care for veterans. Right now, states across the country are implementing health care reform, leading to increased access to coverage.
In those states that choose—or already have chosen— to expand their Medicaid programs, no veteran experiencing chronic homelessness will be uninsured. This is important, especially for those who aren't eligible for VA services.
Having expanded access to better care will lead to a better quality of life, and can help put a person back to health and stability. So I ask all of you to use your voices to raise awareness and ensure that every eligible veteran you work with gets enrolled.
I also ask you to encourage others to join us in thinking outside the box for new, innovative and cost-effective solutions. One vehicle to do this is boot camps designed to house homeless veterans, where teams of government officials, non-profits and other stakeholders—from across the country—come together for two days.
Participants learn from each other by exchanging perspectives, stories and best practices. And when they return home, they are setting ambitious 100-day goals for their own communities, applying the lessons they learned into their local efforts.
As a result, a number of communities like Phoenix and Salt Lake City are now striving to become the first to end veteran homelessness. This kind of progress is happening across the country, giving every indication that these boot camps are working.
They are spreading good ideas and innovative solutions to areas throughout the country. And we've got to do more of it if we are going to achieve the progress we all want.
Conclusion: Fulfilling Our Duty
When I began my remarks, I talked about the duty that all Americans have. It's a duty to treat all those who served with dignity and respect. It's a duty to extend a hand to them so they can lift themselves up. It's a duty to open new doors of opportunity so that they can find a home in the county they have given everything to.
Now, it is up to all of us to rally our fellow citizens and communities to fulfill this duty and ensure that every veteran has a roof to sleep under. Make no mistake: To do this by the end of 2015 is going to be a bumpy road.
We are going to have to be more passionate and productive. We have to be more focused to ensure help reaches those who need it most. And we're going to have to be creative like never before.
I know that we can do this. Why? Because we are committed. I know you have been committed to this cause for decades.
The President and all of us in the Administration stand with you. And today, let's pledge to each other to make this conference a defining moment in our movement – one where we took our work to new heights.
It is up to us to make the 2015 goal a reality. So let's not let each other down. And let's not let our homeless veterans down.

There are fewer things more exciting than buying and building a new home.
The decision to buy a new house can represent the start of a new era or the end of an old one.
You may be an eager new first home buyer, a well-versed empty nester, a sophisticated investor or none of the above.
As we approach three decades in new home construction, we've learned that new home buyers don't have a single stereotype. They come from all walks of life, with all kinds of lifestyle goals, yet there is a common thread.
The emotion, expectation and hope attached to every new home build is shared by all, along with the wish for a few friendly, understanding faces to help along the way - and that's why at Henley, we want to start simply with "hello".

One area ripe for Internet usage is the Newsletter Exchange Group. I know
the Carol B. works hard at her job as the coordinator for the newsletter
editors and I don't want to step on her toes, but sometime soon this kind of
exchange needs to be done on the Internet. The Delmarva Hosta Society
currently send 40 or so extra newsletters to other hosta societies'
newsletter editors via snail mail. We only have 125 members and these extra
copies and postage add significantly to the cost of our newsletter
production. On top of that only the newsletter editors get a copy and that's
about as far as these newsletters go. I have not seen another local
societies newsletter in at least a year.
Not to be overlooked in my above discussion of the newsletter editors and
their use of the Internet is the fact that some people stated that they
never wanted anything they had written to appear on the Internet.

House prices are always a topic of conversation but property prices will be very much in focus this week, as a fresh raft of data on the sector is released and the housebuilder Persimmon updates the market.
Nationwide and Halifax will both deliver house price measures for June, with market watchers keen to see if the recent slowdown in mortgage lending has reined in surging prices.
The Bank of England will also reveal June household borrowing figures, with Investec forecasting mortgage approvals will remain steady at 62,500.
On Wednesday the housebuilder Persimmon has a trading update. Investors are betting on continued bullish performance – the entire sector rallied strongly last week after the Bank of England announced what were seen as lenient controls on mortgage lending.
Today is set to be quiet with no notable updates. Borders & Southern Petroleum and Faroe Petroleum will hold their AGMs.
Tuesday sees first-half trading statements from Ocado and St Modwen Properties. The consensus in the City is £32.6m in pre-tax earnings at Ocado.
Anite, the provider of software to the leisure industry, delivers finals on Wednesday, while Topps Tiles and the construction management specialist Carillion both have trading statements. Carillion has been undergoing a restructure but won £3bn worth of contracts in the first half. Iain Armstrong at Brewin Dolphin says: "The worst effects of the downsizing are now over, while the upside from the new contract wins are not reflected in the share price".
Home Retail Group, owner of Argos and Homebase, has its AGM on Wednesday, as does the investment firm BH Global.
The pub group and brewer Greene King publishes full-year figures on Thursday. Investec forecasts a pre-tax profit of £173.2m and predicts that the company will have had a bullish start to the current year, thanks to the World Cup and good weather.
The cyber security specialist NCC Group also has finals, while the construction group Kier meets with investors.
The week comes to a quiet close, with no significant corporate updates slated for Friday and a holiday in the US.Reuse content

This review is from: MSI GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) DirectX 11 N460GTX CYCLONE 1GD5/OC 1GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
Pros: Great upgrade from an 8800gtx (660/1560/900 oc). Runs very cool 27-58C in gaming (fallout new vegas, crysis, dragon age, bioshock)
Cons: None, not a con but just read the details, these are sli only (no 3-way).
Other Thoughts: I love the card. Its a great value. Nvidia drivers usually very stable. SLI scales much better than the old 8800gtx days. Runs cool; cant really tell if its quiet because its next to a 2600rpm San Ace 120x38mm pushing ~100cfm through my cpu heatsink, lol.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: GIGABYTE GA-EP43-UD3L LGA 775 Intel P43 ATX Intel Motherboard
Pros: Great motherboard for 775socket, DDR2, and single gpu; use all my old components. North bridge ran nice a cool with prime95 and Q6600 @ 3.0ghz.
With this board, Windows XP 32-bit recognizes 3.5gb/4.0gb ram (better than old 3.0gb, i guess)
Cons: No north bridge fan for piece of mind with overclocking.
Ram slots are close to cpu slot, if you want to use all four dimms make sure your aftermarket cooler doesn't get in the way. I'm using a Thermalright u-120e copper + San Ace 120x38mm fan and Dimm1 and Dimm2 are not accessable
Other Thoughts: This board replaced my first overclocking victim, MSI P6N SLi Platium. I stated before I wish there was a north bridge fan but, i have not had a problem (just warm to the touch without a fan @ 3.0Ghz).
Added an Antec fan to the north bridge for 3.6Ghz.
No problems, and loving it.

Pros: Works great voltages look good in HW Monitor; no problems
Cons: none

|RE: Regarding JAXB 2.0 ...
|Thu, 14 Sep 2006 17:32:42 GMT
Here are some advantages that XMLBeans has over JAXB 2.0: * 100% XML Infoset preserving. XMLBeans preserves all of the information in the XML Infoset. Not only are comments, processing instructions, and whitespace preserved, but XML data that is invalid or missing from the XMLSchema will be preserved as well. For example, if a purchase order schema represents a part number as an integer and the part number comes in as a string, the value will be preserved. * Native DOM representation. XMLBeans is backed by a store that allows the XML to be viewed and/or manipulated through either the standard DOM interfaces or through the generated setter/getters. There's no performance penalty for this because there's no copying/cloning necessary under-the-covers when using these representations. * XPath/XQuery support. XMLBeans allows querying and navigating through the object hierarchy using XPath and/or XQuery. * Schema metadata access. XMLBeans has an API that allows access to the underlying XMLSchema metadata through a schema object model API. * On-demand validation. XMLBeans is able to perform validation against the XMLSchema at any time as opposed to only at marshalling/unmarshalling time. * Support for pre-1.5/5.0 JDKs. As already mentioned, XMLBeans can be used with older versions of the JDK. Cheers, James ________________________________ From: Christian Blavier [mailto:firstname.lastname@example.com] Sent: Thursday, September 14, 2006 6:44 AM To: firstname.lastname@example.com Subject: Regarding JAXB 2.0 ... Hello, A simple question : what could encourage me to use xmlbeans rather than Jaxb2.0 ? The initial motivation of xmlbeans is to have a full coverage of XML schema ; so do JAXB 2.0. I still see many people prefering xmlbeans to JAXB, and I'm just wondering why :) Thank you for your responses Christian >>Register now for BEA World 2006 --- See http://www.bea.com/beaworld<< _______________________________________________________________________ Notice: This email message, together with any attachments, may contain information of BEA Systems, Inc., its subsidiaries and affiliated entities, that may be confidential, proprietary, copyrighted and/or legally privileged, and is intended solely for the use of the individual or entity named in this message.

You're right, that it were no Sasanian rulers who issued these coins, but the coins are derivatives of a Sasanian proto-type. The coins show even more influence from the Hepthalites (White Huns) and could therefore also be treated as Indo-Hepthalite coinage, however in Indian numismatics this term is never used.The term Indo-Sasanian is commonly used to point out the derivatives of the Sasanian proto-types.The denomination is generally described as a drachm, but in contemporary inscriptions they may have been described differently. Dramma is common name used in early inscriptions, which in turn is derived from drachm as well.

A 48-year-old Peruvian man from Corona who has been charged in the grisly murders of his wife and younger son told police his split personality was responsible for the crimes, the Queens district attorney said.
Otto Herrarte, 48, of 39-02 111th St., was arrested Saturday after police discovered the bodies of Edna, 55, and Daniel Herrarte, 14, stuffed into a closet in the family's apartment, Queens DA Richard Brown said. The victim's throats had been slit and their bodies had been wrapped up in black plastic, the DA said.
Herrarte's other son, who is 15, was not home at the time of the murders.
The defendant has been charged with two counts of second-degree murder as well as criminal possession of a weapon and tampering with physical evidence, the DA said. Herrarte, who worked at two Manhattan hotels, could face up to 50 years to life in prison if convicted, he said.
"The defendant is accused of a particularly horrific and brutal crime," Brown said. "It is difficult to imagine the anguish being suffered by the surviving son in knowing that his mother and brother died such violent deaths and his father is charged with killing them. This case will be vigorously prosecuted."
Herrarte will return to court on Dec. 22, a DA spokeswoman said. He has been held without bail and ordered to undergo a psychiatric evaluation, she said.
He had been employed for 19 years as a steward at the Doubletree Metropolitan Hotel on Lexington Avenue in Manhattan and held a second job as a cleaner at the New York Helmsley Hotel on East 42nd Street for the last four years.
The father of two is alleged to have slit the necks and throats of his wife and son with a knife between 8 a.m. and 1 p.m. Friday, cleaned the weapon and placed it back in the kitchen, the DA said.
The city chief medical examiner's office determined the victims died as a result of deep cuts to the throat, during which the carotid arteries and tracheas of each individual had been severed, Brown said.
At the time of his arrest, the defendant allegedly told police he had a man inside him named Roberto, who was "responsible for everything that was bad," the DA said. He is also alleged to have said Roberto killed his wife and son while they were in bed.
Herrarte told police he, not Roberto, went to the store to buy plastic bags and duct tape and then placed the two victims in the bags, which he then placed in the closet of his apartment, the DA said.
The defendant was hospitalized at Elmhurst General Hospital on the night of his arrest.
Residents in Herrarte's neighborhood said they were shocked by the murders, but most of them would not give their names.
"It's pretty surprising," said one neighborhood resident who watched as police surveyed the crime scene. "Most of the stuff that happens around here is gang-related, so this is crazy."
An employee at a store along the street who did not want to give his name said he may have seen the defendant or his family at some point along the street.
"They might have shopped here," he said. "This is usually a pretty quiet neighborhood."
A crowd of at least 100 people stood behind police tape for several hours, watching as the bodies of the two victims were removed from the building. Most people at the scene said they did not know the family.
State Assemblyman Jose Peralta (D-Jackson Heights) and state Sen. Hiram Monserrate (D-East Elmhurst) have set up funds to help Herrarte's surviving son. Monserrate is also attempting to secure visas for the victims' family in Guatemala.

This is a very common question that pops up about once a week on this Forum.
More on the subject here:
I was so excitied to get a new LCD TV, did lots of research online etc. to find a good mid-range TV and now that's its home and set up, I think it is only a 60hz...??? The manual specs say 60hz, and a small box in the top left hand corner of the screen reads 1920 x 1080i @ 60hz ??? This does this for all channels, including HD ones, and yes I have changed the picture options to the auto motion plus 120hz to 'smooth' which it recommends for optimum 120hz performance, but still reads "@60hz" in the top corner ??? HELP!!! I am ready to return this TV since 120hz was one of the main reasons I bought this TV ...

Arizona Cardinals
Tom Moore, who will carry the title of assistant head coach/offense, said at the team's recent news conference that he's ready to give it his all in Arizona, following surgeries on both knees.
Arizona Republic columnist Dan Bickley sums up Moore's arrival in Arizona: "Unlike former defensive coordinator Ray Horton, Moore's impact will not be heard in sound bites or radio interviews. It will be seen in the comfort level of his quarterback, in pass-protection schemes, and in players who will no longer feel like square pegs in round holes."
San Francisco 49ers
Delanie Walker is the top target among 49ers free agents, per the San Francisco Chronicle, and he's atop a group that includes three starters: safety Dashon Goldson, nose guard Isaac Sopoaga and wide receiver Randy Moss.
Coach Jim Harbaugh handled defeat in the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am a whole lot better than he did a week ago in Super Bowl XLVII -- with a big smile.
The 49ers are still looking for consistency at wide receiver, and NFL.com's Dan Hanzus says Percy Harvin could help out in San Francisco.
Seattle Seahawks
According to the 12th Man Rising blog, Arizona QB Matt Scott is the most likely player to be drafted to become Russell Wilson's backup.
St. Louis Rams
With a much tighter cap situation, the Rams may be lucky to sign a couple of starters via free agency, says Jim Thomas of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Mike Singletary, a former teammate of Jeff Fisher in Chicago, is the latest known candidate to interview for the still vacant Rams defensive coordinator position.
Will the Rams leave St. Louis? David Hunn of the Post-Dispatch reports some good news -- for now -- for fans.
And for all those dreaming about baseball and still loving football, Seattle's KCPQ-TV sports director Kevin Levine calls the Mariners the "St. Louis Rams of the American League West."

The correct address is 27365 U.S. 19, Clearwater, FL. It is now a automobile dealer. The building was not demolished. It was just remodeled a bit.

John Deere Unveils Two New Tractor Loaders

The 210L EP and 210L are the newest members of the John Deere L-Series lineup.
The new Caterpillar 586C Site Prep Tractor is a multi-purpose, heavy-duty machine with enough muscle to run power-hungry mulchers and brushcutters needed for clearing pipeline rights-of-way.
When Neal Jinkerson and Nick Walters began working for the pipeline construction division of Henkels & McCoy Inc. many years ago, there was a distinct time frame for what constituted the construction season.
The new L45 tractor-loader-backhoe (TLB) operates like three machines in one, combining a strong loader and backhoe with three-point implement capabilities.
Terex Construction introduces a dedicated compact equipment line, distributed throughout North America.
The International Pipeline and Offshore Contractors Association (IPLOCA) recently hosted its annual convention in Athens, Greece with 630 attendees.
In 1948, young inventor and entrepreneur Gary Vermeer founded a new company in a one room cement block building to produce a hoist device for lifting grain wagon boxes to make them easier to empty.
Atlas Dewatering bypass pumps are customized to suit your application.
The 1030 walk-along trencher is designed for residential and short-run commercial service line work lines requiring trenches up to 6 inches wide and 30 inches deep.
Powered by a John Deere 110-hp turbocharged diesel engine, the DP-100 has the power to install utilities deeper, faster and more economically.

Markets recently reacted well to GDP growth numbers - over the last year, real GDP increased by 2%. Looked at over the past 5 years, however, the annual increase in real GDP is a miserable 0.7%.
Are the recent numbers implying a trend upward? The graph below shows a sliding window of Trailing-Twelve-Month (TTM) GDP growth (using averaged numbers over a period of 12 months).
You can see that there have been rising peaks recently, which when smoothed out do show a steady recovery, which correlates with steadily better unemployment rates, improved housing market, etc. in the U.S.
What if we look back through modern history? The graph below shows trailing-5-year real GDP growth (annual %).
Something very interesting about this graph is that the past 5 years have been about as bad as they have ever been - in fact, the last time 5-year GDP growth was this low was February 1983! That was the start of a massive bull market - the forward 5-year return for the S&P 500 was 16% per year!
For those who will say interest rates dropped to help that return, I won't disagree, although if you look at long treasury rates back then, they only dropped from ~10% to ~8%, so it is hard to see that as the major factor.
Going farther back, the last time things were this bad was near January 1951. For 5 years after that, the S&P 500 returned 25% per year.
The challenge with analysis like this is that there is very limited data despite 60 years seeming like a long time. However, intuition tells me that when growth has been this poor, the bears drive prices to attractive levels with all their doom and gloom talk (and incidentally, drive prices of fear assets like gold (NYSEARCA:GLD) to lofty heights as well!). If these low GDP growth rates correlate with pessimism, and John Templeton was right that buying "at the point of maximum pessimism" is ideal, then now should be a great time to be investing in U.S. equities - either through stocks or through general market ETFs like SPY.
For more on why I am bullish on U.S. equities, see the case I make here: seekingalpha.com/article/1354181-the-bull-case-for-u-s-equities-in-2013.
Disclosure: I am long SPY. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from Seeking Alpha). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

This Sunday April 24, some 38,000 ambitious runners will make their way along 26.2 miles of prime London turf, contributing to an almighty charity loot of more than £50 million.
If you're not running, the least you can do is turn out and offer your full support. In a bid to make this as unstrenuous as possible, we've mapped the very best pubs, bars and restaurants close by the course to cheer from.
Flick through the gallery above for our recommendations.
Have we missed anywhere? Let us know in the comments below.
Both the start, near Greenwich, and the finish line, at St James's Park, tend to have the best atmosphere, though in truth you'll find most of the course has its share of spectators. If you're hoping to see runners twice, head to the Wapping/Shadwell area, or West India Quay.

Paula Radcliffe pauses at the side of the course during the 25th London Marathon, April 17, 2005. The world record holder has said she fears she will never live down the fact that she was pictured squatting at the side of the road to relieve herself mid-race. However, she later said: "I don't regret it because I won."

Ex-Boxer Michael Watson walked the 2003 marathon over 6 days, 2 hours, 27 minutes and 10 seconds to money for the Brain and Spine Foundation. He suffered a devastating head injury in a fight with Chris Eubank in 1991. Eubank and Watson's neurosurgeon, both of whom had become his personal friends, walked the last mile alongside him.

Claire Squires, 30, collapsed less than a mile from the finish line of the 2012 London Marathon and later died in hospital. After her death donations flooded in to her fundraising page, raising a total of more than £940,000 for Samaritans.
In 2008, 101-year-old Buster Martin was hero after completing the London Marathon in less than 10 hours. However, Guinness World Records refused to recognise his achievement because he could not produce a birth certificate.
Robert Berry, 42, collapsed after finishing the 2014 London Marathon. He was given medical attention, but was pronounced dead at hospital. His fundraising page, for the National Osteoporosis Society received more than £77,000 in donations.
Paul Elliott and Laura Harvey celebrated their marriage after running 13 miles around the capital in the 2015 London Marathon. The couple, from south London, ran half the race before saying their vows in front of 80 guests at 12.45pm. They then completed the race before heading to their reception.

Londoner Fauja Singh took up running at the age of 89 years, and first turned up for training in Redbridge dressed in a three-piece suit. Singh ran his first race, the London Marathon, in 2000. He is a world record holder in his age bracket, and his current personal best time for the London Marathon is 6 hours 2 minutes, which he set in 2003.

In 2014, two runners were accused of cheating. 34-year-old runner Jason Scotland-Williams was accused of duping officials he completed the second after he completed the second leg of the marathon in just one hour, one minute - three minutes shy of the world record, and beating Mo Farah's time. Frank Staples, 74, was also investigated, after he ran the first half of the course in around three and a half hours but completed the second half in one hour 14 minutes - only seven minutes slower than Paula Radcliffe's women's world record.

Globetrotting Tour Fulfills the PAST&E Goal to Curb Summer Learning Loss for At-Risk Youth
This summer PAST&E spent 8 weeks learning about 8 areas of the world, Yellowstone National Park, Guatemala, Argentina, New Zealand, Ireland, Togo, Nepal and the Philippines. Scholar athletes attended the program 5 days a week, 7 hours a day. One hour each day was devoted to tennis leaving the rest of our day dedicated to a variety of subject areas including life skills, community building, art, biology, news, cultural dances, games, foods & clothing, geography, environment issues and social justice. Our Coach/Tutors leading the activities tailored each for the Chimps in 1-3rd grade, the Elephants in 4-5th grade and the Cheetahs in 6-8th grade. Our last week was spent preparing for our Festival of Nations presentations that teamed up our older scholar athletes as mentors for the younger students. And we also had 30 scholar athletes graduate from the Game, Set and Match levels of First Serve Life Skills Curriculum sponsored by the USTA's National Junior Tennis & Learning.
Scholar athletes age 8 and up competed with other juniors from across the city in a low-cost sanctioned USTA 10 and Under and Junior Tennis Tournaments hosted at St. Johns Racquet Center, the home of PAST&E. By keeping the cost at 1/3 the average rate of junior tournament fees, our 8 week summer tournament series gave 233 children an opportunity to play in a tournament. And PAST&E's mission to keep the sport of tennis accessible to our scholar athletes and other low-income families was fulfilled.
In total we served 170 scholar athletes this summer through our Serving Up Success Summer Program. Through our partnership with James John Elementary SUN Community School we served 120 scholar athletes in our Kids Tennis & Reading Clubs. But, at the heart of our program, our 50 year round scholar athletes attended PAST&E for more than 280 program hours. Additionally, outside of program hours our families stayed involved throughout the summer by participating in tournaments and field trips, family meetings and maintaining our PAST&E family garden. And more than 50 dedicated volunteers gave over 1800 hours of volunteer service with PAST&E!
With school already under way we are starting our year round program this week!

A year ago I envisioned Philadelphia as the can't-miss team in the NFC East. Only one problem: They missed. So something had to be changed, and something was. Meet Chip Kelly, Andy Reid's successor and the Eagles' first new head coach in 15 years. Kelly's college resume is impressive, but it's not USC or Stanford he must overcome now. It's RG3 and Eli Manning, and good luck.
[Related: CBSSports.com's Top 100 free agents]
1. Team overview: Seldom has less been done with more than with last year's Philadelphia Eagles. They had the talent to go to the top of the NFC East but, instead, plummeted to the bottom, losing games, coaches and Andy Reid along the way. Kelly succeeds Reid, bringing with him a face-paced, wide-open offense that carried the University of Oregon to a zillion victories and demands stamina, speed and depth from anyone involved. Kelly's challenge is twofold: 1) find a quarterback to run his offense, and 2) satisfy passionate Eagles' followers who tired of Reid and were eager to move on. Michael Vick is the logical candidate to quarterback this team, but he's an injury waiting to happen -- with only one complete season in 10 years on the job. But that's not all. He's a turnover waiting to happen, too, and that's more of a concern. The Eagles will be more intriguing on offense, but the question is: How successful will they be? And how do they avoid the giveaways that characterized their last two seasons when they committed 75 in 32 games? If Vick is your quarterback, I don't know the answer.
Biggest concern: Quarterback. Who's going to run Kelly's offense? Vick's the logical candidate now, but let's revisit this subject after the draft.
2. What we know about this depth chart: There are plenty of needs beyond quarterback, and I'd start with an offensive line that last year was decimated by injuries and, frankly, stunk. Left tackle Jason Peters is expected back, but I don't know how effective he'll be -- not after an Achilles' setback. Kelly's scheme is frenzied, running guys from play to play. it's the Paul Westhead approach to football, and I'm not sure how his zone-blocking ideas mesh with what Philadelphia has up front. The club is set at the skill positions but could use more productivity out of the sometimes explosive DeSean Jackson -- especially after the big deal he signed a year ago. Once upon a time defense was the backbone of this team, but not anymore. The secondary is a mess, with changes needed almost everywhere, and the club could use someone other than Fletcher Cox and Cedric Thornton at defensive tackle. The Eagles were 15th in overall defense, which is OK, but tied for 29th in points allowed (27.8 per), which is not. Plus, they produced an NFL-worst 13 takeaways, including only eight interceptions -- with four in the season opener. Somebody cue the Beatles' "Help."
Biggest areas of need: Quarterback, cornerback, safety, offensive tackle, outside linebacker.
3. Free-agent strategy: The Eagles haven't had a quality safety since Brian Dawkins left four years ago, and while this draft is loaded at the position I might start there when looking for veteran help. There is quality up and down the line, with someone young like a Chris Clemons of Miami or William Moore of Atlanta available. Of course, so is San Francisco's Dashon Goldson, but reports have him seeking $8 million a year. Plus, he turns 29 in May. They could look for cornerback help here, too, with guys like Shaun Smith, Cary Williams or Greg Toler expected to hit the market. That position isn't as deep in the draft, and after the years Nnamdi Asomugha and Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie had anything new is an improvement. Reports have linked San Francisco's Ricky Jean-Francois to the Eagles, and I can see them going for help anywhere on the defensive line. In fact, they should go for anything ... period ... on defense. The unit was a mess, with one coordinator worse than the guy he replaced. Philadelphia needs to get back to an aggressive, attacking scheme that forced turnovers, and look for the club to make additions with that in mind.
Guys I would target: Sean Smith, William Moore, Greg Toler, Glover Quin.
4. What should happen: What should happen is that Kelly starts clearing out overpaid underachievers left over from 2012, and it looks as if he's on that track. The Eagles should have been better, much better, than they were a year ago, but mistakes, injuries and downright lackadaisical play sank the club. Injuries can't be prevented, but mistakes can. Which is why I'm intrigued by what Kelly does with his quarterback. Vick is a guy constantly getting hurt, and, when he's not, he's someone who can't hold on to the football. Over the past two seasons (23 games) he has 31 turnovers and a 10-13 record. Plus, he turns 33 in June and hasn't won a playoff game since the 2004 season. And that's the guy you want running your club? I don't think so. Kelly must start over here, and I would say the renovation begins with his quarterback. My guess is that the Eagles' next starter is not on the roster.

Arizona Cardinals
Todd Heap released by Cardinals
The Arizona Cardinals have parted ways with veteran tight end Todd Heap.
Heap has been bothered by a knee injury suffered in Week 2 in a win over the New England Patriots and hasn't played since.
In two games this season, Heap caught eight passes for 94 yards. In his injury-plagued two-season stint with Arizona, Heap had 32 receptions for 377 yards and and one touchdown in only 12 games.
The veteran from Mesa Mountain View High School and Arizona State University has 499 catches for 5,869 yards and 42 touchdowns in his 12-year career.
Heap will be replaced on the roster by tight end Kory Sperry, who the Cardinals signed Tuesday. Sperry spent the last two seasons with the San Diego Chargers but was released following training camp in August.

Steven Aftergood is the director of the Federation of American Scientist' Project on Government Secrecy. He says if the Department of Defense does move in this direction – it means using genome sequence data in a whole new way.

Badlands of Modernity by Kevin Hetherington
Book DescriptionThe Badlands of Modernity offers a wide ranging and original interpretation of modernity as it emerged during the eighteenth century through an analysis of some of the most important social spaces. Drawing on Foucault's analysis of heterotopia, or spaces of alternate ordering, the book argues that modernity originates through an interplay between ideas of utopia and heterotopia and heterotopic spatial practice. The Palais Royal during the French Revolution, the masonic lodge and in its relationship to civil society and the public sphere and the early factories of the Industrial Revolution are all seen as heterotopia in which modern social ordering is developed. Rather than seeing modernity as being defined by a social order, the book argues that we need to take account of the processes and the ambiguous spaces in which they emerge, if we are to understand the character of modern societies. The book uses these historical examples to analyse contemporary questions about modernity and postmodernity, the character of social order and the significance of marginal space in relation to issues of order, transgression and resistance. It will be important reading for sociologists, geographers and social historians as well as anyone who has an interest in modern societies.

who conduct the surveillance?
There was a show-tune ditty that was popular back when I was a kid, which younger readers might also identify as the theme song to Married With Children.

In quite the same way, in the context of electoral politics, you can't have speech without money.
Only two words are necessary to say all that needs to be said about the rapidly expanding scandal over the dangerous food, toiletries, and manufactured goods arriving on our shores and shelves from The Peoples Republic of China: Silent Spring.

The unwarranted uproar among the punditocracy over President Bush's commutation of part of I.

Unlucky in love Jo is dragged along to see a clairvoyant by her two coupled-up best friends, and is told that there's only one boy for her. The trouble is, the last time she saw him was in a past life, when she worked as a governess to his younger brother. The clairvoyant tells her that as she is back in this life, so is he, and she must find him if she is ever to know true happiness and love. Jo doesn't believe a word of it - but then a series of events begin to change her mind. Could her one true love really be out there? In her quest to find the One, she visits psychics and cemeteries - but will she even be able to recognize her soul-mate when she finds him? Or is she destined to continue looking for love for all of time?
