I bought this shirt for my mom. she liked it. I don't like the material that much though. I am satisfied with it.
The material of this shirt may be light and it looks fine, but don't let it fool you. Once I put it on I couldn't wait to get it off. It was terribly itchy. The top looked decent, but so not worth the pain.

The waves crash and burn, throwing its anger and pain at the world all to prove that there is no life after life had vanquished from the depths of hell...

The stock market rally since March has been dramatic, with the FTSE 100 increasing by 46 per cent. Plenty of funds have matched this increase and some that were heavily positioned in economically sensitive sectors have increased by over 70 per cent. But some funds that have not kept up with the market at all.
The most high-profile of these is Neil Woodford of Invesco Perpetual, who runs the extremely popular Income and High Income funds. He is one of my favourite fund managers but, given the size of the rally, it is perfectly reasonable for investors to ask why his funds haven't done so well.
To answer this question you need to know what drives Mr Woodford's stock selection, then you'll be better placed to judge whether you agree or disagree with his investment stance. It is often a mistake not to look at the detail behind a fund's performance – either good or bad.
Mr Woodford's investment process is a combination of looking at the global economic environment and then at what stocks he can buy to best reflect this view. It is fair to say that his economic views have not changed for quite some time; he has generally been bearish of the global economy on the basis that just about everyone has overextended themselves with credit. Too much debt can pose major risks to a business or economy just as it can to an individual, and we have felt the effects of that in the last couple of years.
The credit party ended suddenly and we have been left with the mother of all hangovers. The problems have yet to be properly addressed, indeed so far our Government's main solution has been to borrow a lot more money.
The banks are also under pressure from two contradictory requirements. The Government wants them to lend more to keep the wheels of the economy turning, but they also want the banks to retain cash and improve their capital positions. Clearly it is impossible to do both at the same time.
The economic recovery in the UK and US gives every sign of being slow and painful, so it is hard to believe we will return to a pre-credit crunch boom. We already know there will be tax rises, which were announced in the last budget and we can surely expect more bad news on this front after the general election. The opposition are warning us of tough times and we can expect severe cutbacks in the public sector. George Osborne's pledge to freeze public sector pay is just the beginning in my view.
In a slower growth environment the companies most likely to prosper are those which have strong balance sheets, are well financed (either with no debt or very manageable debt), and a stable business model that is relatively immune from problems in the economy.
To that end Mr Woodford has concentrated his portfolio around the companies that he feels best match this criteria. Two of his largest holdings are AstraZeneca and GlaxoSmith Kline, which are trading at levels that value them cheaply in comparison to companies that have participated in this rally so far. Other large holdings include Tesco, National Grid, Vodafone and British Gas.
Since March these stocks have been left behind as investors have anticipated a V-shaped economic recovery and bought more cyclical companies. Mr Woodford thinks this is highly dangerous and likens the situation to a similar one he faced in 1999/2000 when internet stocks took off and left the solid, dependable companies behind. He believes that his stocks hold tremendous value and that this will be recognised by the market, but of course he cannot say when.
So while Neil Woodford remains bearish on the economy, he is bullish on his own portfolio and I, for one, agree with him. It is also noticeable that he has actually raised the dividend on his funds this year while many other equity income funds have cut theirs by as much as 25 per cent. His funds may be at the bottom of the sector at the moment, but what this suggests to me is that investors should buy more of the fund and not sell down their holdings.

The second recording from drummer Tomas Fujiwara & The Hook Up with Jonathan Finlayson on trumpet, Brian Settles on tenor saxophone, Mary Halvorson on guitar, and now Trevor Dunn on bass.
Fujiwara, Tomas & The Hook Up
The Air is Different
Label: 482 Music
Released in: USA
"The Air is Different is the second recording from Tomas Fujiwara & The Hook Up. The group includes the leader/composer on drums, Jonathan Finlayson on trumpet, Brian Settles on tenor saxophone, Mary Halvorson on guitar, and now Trevor Dunn on bass. While all of the performers are highly acclaimed and virtuosic soloists, this is an album that prizes the richly satisfying rewards of an ensemble sound over individual pyrotechnics. Shaped by the thoughtful constructions of Fujiwara's compositions and driven by his subtly expressive drumming, the music blurs the line between composition and improvisation, effortlessly celebrating a diverse stew of influences (from Wayne Shorter to Talib Kweli, from Fela Kuti to author Haruki Murakami) while demonstrating no uncertainty about its own powerfully distinct identity.
An actively working ensemble since 2008, their first recording, Actionspeak, was named one of the best debuts of 2010 by the New York City Jazz Record and received a four-star review in Downbeat. Jim Macnie of The Village Voice says, "The drummer has named his latest band appropriately. Ensembles can go anywhere if the intra-group chemistry is cooking...Fujiwara sounds like he's got his mates on speed dial." Reviewing a 2010 performance in The New York Times, Nate Chinen writes, "Insightful, invigorating...music with a history, smartly informed and firmly moored. Yet its basic feeling was contemporary. Mr. Fujiwara composes with a modern ear and an episodic approach: his tunes begin in one place and end someplace else, mutating in stages along the way." "-482 Music

Iconoclastic and often enigmatic singer Rene Marie was plain when she once said that she never wished to record a tribute disc. After four successful recordings with MAXJAZZ, including one (Vertigo (2001)) provocatively pairing Dixie" with Strange Fruit," Marie took a hard left to address in music some of her pressing artistic concerns. This resulted in 2011's Black Lace Freudian Slip (Motema) and her loving ode to America, Voice of My Beautiful Country (Motema, 2011). No, Marie had no intention ...read more
Budding jazz instrumentalists are often told that they need to find their own voice but, ironically, those who use their actual voices are often expected to adhere to the sonic standards of those who came before. Fans and press who value originality in jazz instrumentalists wring their hands in frustration when more John Coltrane clones come into the picture but, on the other side of the coin, the masses applaud and herald singers with voices crafted in the images of ...read more
René MarieNovember 1, 2008 (First Set)Dazzle NightclubDenverRené Marie is a jazz singer, and one of the better ones in the business these days. She performs the standards and often does so in a straight ahead, straightforward but still unique manner. She's not content to exclusively reinterpret the jazz songbook, however. She writes her own songs and is also known to occasionally select a pop song not typically heard in a jazz context ... read more
The biggest surprise perhaps on Rene Marie's inaugural live recording is the conspicuous absence of her controversial reading of Billie Holiday's Strange Fruit" and the traditional Dixie" in medley from her last MAXJAZZ recording Vertigo (MXJ114, 2001). To Marie's credit, she does cover her previously covered How Can I Keep From Singing" (the title of her initial MAXJAZZ release). Stunning in this release is Ms. Marie's beautiful coupling of Ravel's Bolero" and Leonard Cohen's Suzanne." This daring association alone (the ...read more

Interventions into Modernist Cultures: Poetry from Beyond the Empty Screen (Perverse Modernities: A Series Edited by Jack Halberstam and Lisa Lowe)By: Amie Elizabeth Parry (author)Paperback
1 - 2 weeks availability
DescriptionInterventions into Modernist Cultures is a comparative analysis of the cultural politics of modernist writing in the United States and Taiwan. Amie Elizabeth Parry argues that the two sites of modernism are linked by their representation or suppression of histories of U.S. imperialist expansion, Cold War neocolonial military presence, and economic influence in Asia. Focusing on poetry, a genre often overlooked in postcolonial theory, she contends that the radically fragmented form of modernist poetic texts is particularly well suited to representing U.S. imperialism and neocolonial modernities. Reading various works by U.S. expatriates Ezra Pound and Gertrude Stein, Parry compares the cultural politics of U.S. canonical modernism with alternative representations of temporality, hybridity, erasure, and sexuality in the work of the Taiwanese writers Yu Kwang-chung and Hsia Yu and the Asian American immigrant author Theresa Hak Kyung Cha. Juxtaposing poems by Pound and Yu Kwang-chung, Parry shows how Yu's fragmented, ambivalent modernist form reveals the effects of neocolonialism while Pound denies and obscures U.S. imperialism in Asia, asserting a form of nondevelopmental universalism through both form and theme. Stein appropriates discourses of American modernity and identity to represent nonnormative desire and sexuality, and Parry contrasts this tendency with representations of sexuality in the contemporary experimental poetry of Hsia Yu. Finally, Parry highlights the different uses of modernist forms by Pound in his Cantos-which incorporate a multiplicity of decontextualized and ahistorical voices-and by Cha in her 1982 novel Dictee, a historicized, multilingual work. Parry's sophisticated readings provide a useful critical framework for apprehending how "minor modernisms" illuminate the histories erased by certain canonical modernist texts.

That dull thud you can hear coming from south-west Spain is the sound of the Vuelta organisers ASO's heads banging against the nearest wall.
The 2014 Vuelta, which starts in Jerez de la Frontera in Andalucia on Saturday, will be without its defending champion after the American Chris Horner was pulled out by his team on medical grounds.
Horner has been receiving a cortisone-based treatment for bronchitis. He has a therapeutic use exemption from the International Cycling Union, the sport's governing body.
However, the 42-year-old's team Lampre-Merida have a policy of preventing any rider with cortisol levels under a certain level from racing. Cortisone use has the effect of artificially lowering the level of blood cortisol – the stress hormone. Before Horner's omission, the build-up to this year's Vuelta had been remarkable for its smoothness.
The race usually suffers because of its position at the tail-end of the season, but this year's edition looks set to benefit from the various misfortunes suffered by the world's top riders, many of whom have made the Vuelta their revised season target.
Alberto Contador and Chris Froome will reconvene for the battle royale that should have happened in July before both crashed out of the Tour de France with broken bones.
However, Nairo Quintana will make sure it is no straight shootout between the two present. The diminutive Colombian climber has his eye on a second Grand Tour of the year, having already claimed the Giro d'Italia in May.
But this Vuelta looks tailor-made for the perennially luckless home favourite Joaquim Rodriguez, for whom this is perhaps the final chance to win a Grand Tour.
Rodriguez finished third at the Vuelta in 2010 and 2012, and the Team Katusha climber's punchy style should be suited to a 2014 route.Reuse content

Big Brown Bat
Eptesicus fuscus
No photograph available
Wingspan: 13 – 16"; Body length: 2 1/2 – 3"
Diet: insects
These bats are found from southern Canada into Central America. They often roost in barns and under bridges, and move into caves and mines to hibernate. Apparently, some individuals use the same feeding ground on different nights. After feeding, they fly to a night roost to rest.
Big brown bats are not listed as endangered because they are widely distributed throughout their range and populations appear to be relatively stable.

The Sealy Center on Aging at the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB) is a leading center for research on minority health and aging. UTMB has hosted an NIA-supported pre-doctoral and postdoctoral training program in minority health and aging since 1999. In the current funding cycle, we request funding for three predoctoral and two postdoctoral positions. We are proposing several important changes in the focus and activities of the minority aging training program for the next funding cycle. Going forward, the T32 training program will focus on two identified core areas of strengths in minority aging research at UTMB: Hispanic and Latin American health and aging, and disparities in health outcomes in older adults. These are areas in which the University has committed substantial resources toward creating new faculty positions and has demonstrated significant success in obtaining peer-reviewed (R01) support. In concert with the recent strategic planning process for the graduate program in Population Health Sciences (where most pre-doctoral trainees are enrolled), we are adopting a revised curriculum for pre-doctoral student education and training. The Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences and Provost's Office have made significant commitments in the past year to enhancing the excellence of graduate education and postdoctoral training and research at UTMB. These commitments include the President's Scholars Program to recruit outstanding graduate students and the establishment of an Office of Postdoctoral Affairs that includes organized training and opportunities in career development and mentoring. We have developed a formal structure and related activities to enhance recruitment and facilitate the placement of our trainees regionally and nationally. We believe that these changes will position trainees for leadership positions among the next generation of aging researchers.
Minority older adults have historically greater barriers to health care access, have unique needs, and are on track for future demographic growth.
We aim to recruit promising new investigators to research careers in minority aging. UTMB has the largest enrollment of Mexican American medical students in the continental US as well as internationally recognized scholars of Hispanic aging.

Story 7.5/10
Takayuki Narumi, our male protagonist, falls in love with a girl without even expecting to, having gone out with her simply because she asked. Of course the friend who set up the meeting had never really thought they would make it together - having been harbouring feelings for Takayuki of her own. When their fledgling relationship is shattered by cruel circumstance, leaving Takayuki a guilt-ridden dysfunctional wreck, how will the two respond? Between this first incident and a few further exceptional twists further along the way, the stage is set to twist the screws of drama. These human beings are forced to reconcile their conflicting emotions with reality, and with each other.
Kimi ga Nozomu Eien tells a story that explores the human condition through the power of love, and shows us that not all pain comes from a negative source. It's occasionally trite and over-convenient, often overly dramatic, sometimes flat-out unbelievable in the twists it takes; however, many of these cliches and missteps can be excused without much difficulty simply because the relationships explored and the messages we take away are worthwhile and profound.
Animation 8/10
I was pleasantly surprised at the animation quality in this work when I learned it had been based on a visual novel. Adaptations from this medium tend to be extremely hit-or-miss in terms of quality, and Kimi ga Nozomu Eien falls squarely in the 'hit' camp. Movement is visibly fluid, with few moments lost or complicated to poor frame work - something you can definitely appreciate in several athletic moments on screen. The character designs are quite decent; while most of the cast is female and the expectations the creators seem to have of female anatomy are likely a tad unreasonable, it mostly doesn't show on-screen very much because a large number of the outfits the girls are shown in are appreciably modest.
I will make a note that there is on-screen nudity, where the overample bosoms are presented for viewing, but despite the subject matter it never quite approaches the point of fanservice. I'm led to believe that, being conscious of the property's eroge origins, the artists thought it best to not dwell too heavily on them and thus be able to approach a modicum of decency. They very much succeeded, and so nudity is used to characterize sweetness, weakness, dependence, or a number of other qualities; but never to arouse the viewer.
Sound 6/10
The musical score can only really be described as 'bare'. The composer chose a very minimalistic style, with only a single piano and some very occasional synthesizers, to accompany the on-screen action. Most of the screentime is devoid of any music at all, and in a marathon of viewing the fact that there's actually only a very small number of musical tracks in use at all shows through. The result is minimalistic, but manages very slightly to avoid being repetitive to the point of drawing ire.
What music there is does work quite well as an emotional accompaniment but with so few tracks to draw on the 'best choice out of what's available' doesn't always make a very good fit with the onscreen action.
It's obvious how little of the budget went into the sound production overall, in fact. While I can't quite describe the voice work as stilted or truly lacking - in fact, they tend to succeed very well at delivering on heightened states of emotion believably, more so than actors in many aniime do - it does sometimes feel like something is lost in the more complex, subtler moments of human emotion. This is something that could likely have been solved with more time devoted to direction, lending the piece an overall feeling that it may have been somewhat rushed out the door.
The standout in the cast is definitely the actor for Mitsuki Hayase, delivering a layered performance that shows quite a bit of what goes on in the character's heart.
Characters 8.5/10
This is where Kimi ga Nozomu Eien really shines. All of the main ensemble is composed of complex, deeply flawed, believable characters that would almost seem to be more at home in a tragedy than the comedy that's delivered on. Haruka is at first glance little more than a wallflower, but by the end of the series shows almost more depth and self-awareness than anyone else in the cast. Mitsuki initially presents herself as a good girl, and is at first willing to sacrifice too much for the sake of her friends; in the end, however, she gives up what's most important in her life because she simply can't maintain her facade any longer. Takayuki initially acts as an aimless anime protagonist but we gradually get to uncover deeper-seated problems in his psyche as well. Even a couple of members of the supporting cast succceed at delivering their own interesting perspectives to the story.
Overall 7.5/10
What does it actually mean to 'love' someone? Are the bonds of sentiment you gradually develop over years of intimacy enough, or is there something more to it? Is it something you have to work towards, or does it happen on its own? Is it even enough on its own to sustain a relationship? For a tale adapted from a harem-style eroge, Kimi ga Nozomu Eien is surprisingly adept at asking these questions, and more. We maybe even get an answer or two to ponder for our trouble. The characters are manipulated into showcasing both the best and the worst of human emotion, and while the circumstances do stretch the limits of believability at times the result is definitely worth putting the effort into.

About Jeff Masters
Cat 6 lead authors: WU cofounder Dr. Jeff Masters (right), who flew w/NOAA Hurricane Hunters 1986-1990, & WU meteorologist Bob Henson, @bhensonweather
By: Dr. Jeff Masters , 5:04 PM GMT on July 04, 2007
A political storm engulfed the National Hurricane Center this week, with a majority of the senior hurricane forecasters calling for Bill Proenza's removal as director. The most visible issue revolved around the extraordinary focus on the aging QuikSCAT satellite. The public argument put forth by Mr. Proenza was that QuikSCAT data was so vital to hurricane track forecasting that without it, track forecast errors would increase significantly, leading to larger warning areas and increased costs for evacuation and emergency planning.
Focus on QuikSCAT--out of proportion?
On March 16th Proenza went public with the QuikSCAT concerns and associated statistics for the first time, stating that "two- and three-day forecasts of a storm's path would be affected. The two-day forecast could be 10 percent worse while the three-day one could be affected up to 16 percent," with the conclusion," that would mean longer stretches of coastline would have to be placed under warnings, and more people than necessary would have to evacuate." As a result of these comments, a perception arose in the public and among lawmakers that without QuikSCAT, NHC would not be able to provide accurate hurricane forecasts. Legislation was hastily introduced into both the House and Senate to provide an immediate replacement for the $375 million satellite.
Proenza's statements raised several questions: 1) Why the focus on track forecast errors in landfalling situations, when QuikSCAT was widely known to be used in intensity forecasting and for tropical cyclones too far at sea to be accessed by the Hurricane Hunters? 2) Could such specific and significant gains in track forecast error truly be attributed to QuikSCAT? Where did these numbers come from, and why was no uncertainty being attached to them?
Since QuikSCAT data became available, starting in 1999, average track errors for 48-hour and 72-hour forecasts have been reduced by 43 miles and 62 miles respectively. Fully one quarter of this improvement was being attributed by Proenza to QuikSCAT. This was an extraordinary performance increase to attribute to one satellite, and seemed doubtful.
We find out where the QuikSCAT numbers came from
In mid-June, Margie Kieper and I asked Proenza to comment on how he got his QuikSCAT numbers. He cited an unpublished study, "A Two Season Impact Study of Four Satellite Data Types and Rawinsonde Data in the NCEP Global Data Assimilation System", by Tom H. Zapotocny, James A. Jung, John F. LeMarshall and Russ E. Treadon. I contacted one of the authors, who informed me that the study was submitted for publication on January 26, 2007, and accepted for publication in the journal Weather and Forecasting on May 23, 2007. It will probably appear in the October-November time frame, according to the publisher. This raises an immediate problem, since only a privileged few are able to read unpublished research. This limits the possibilities for an informed debate on the issue, and basing important policy decisions on unpublished research is thus normally to be avoided. However, making accurate hurricane forecasts is important enough that such considerations can be excused. Proenza didn't give me any details on the study, other than the fact that QuikSCAT data improved 72-hour and 48-hour hurricane track forecasts by 16% and 10% respectively, for a select group of storms from the 2003 hurricane season. One of the authors graciously sent me a copy of the study, though, and after reading it, I had these observations:
1). The study looked at a very limited number of cases over a six-week period during 2003--only 19 cases were available for 72 hour forecasts. The 19 cases were not 19 storms, just 19 separate forecasts from the 4 hurricanes and 2 tropical storms that occurred during the 6-week study period. This sample is too small to draw definitive conclusions about the impact of the QuikSCAT on tropical cyclone forecasts. The two longest-lived storms during the test period were Fabian and Isabel, storms that spent the majority of their lifetimes far away from land. Since the quality of the observing network increases close to land, particulary when reconnaissance data from the Hurricane Hunters is available, it is reasonable to conclude that the impact of the QuikSCAT data for storms within 72 hours of landfall would be less than for the sample as a whole. The study was not primarily designed to study tropical cyclone track accuracy, so there was no separation out of the cases we really care about--storms 72 hours or less from landfall.
2). The study was done with only one model, the GFS. NHC official forecasts make use of several models, including the GFDL, UKMET, NOGAPS and ECMWF. Consequently, a change in the accuracy of a single model will have only a partial effect on NHC official forecast accuracy. As far as I know, there have not been studies done of the impact of QuikSCAT on tropical cyclone forecasts in the GFDL, UKMET or the ECMWF models. Past studies on the impact of dropsonde data from the Hurricane Hunters, however, show that the GFDL is less sensitive to these data than the GFS is.
3). When I attended the AMS hurricane conference in May 2006 in Monterey, I came across a poster presentation by Dr. Jim Goerss that evaluated the impact of QuikSCAT on the NOGAPS model. His study was far more comprehensive, and included 12 hurricanes, 5 typhoons, and 7 tropical storms from a 6-week period in 2004. The number of cases was 212 at 72 hours, eleven times as many as the study Proenza cites. Dr. Goerss found that QuikSCAT probably improved 24-hour track forecasts by 2.5% (90% confidence of this), but at all other forecast times (48, 72, 96, and 120 hours), QuikSCAT had no statistically significant effect (i.e., zero effect).
It is hard to compare the results from these two studies, since they used two different data assimilation systems. We do not know if they used all the data, or how they treated the vertical impact of the data. The uncertainties are high, and Proenza's simple statement that QuikSCAT data improves hurricane tracks forecasts by 10% and 16% is unreasonable, without at least making mention that these numbers are highly uncertain.
I believe that NHC official forecasts for landfalling storms in the Atlantic would not be significantly affected by the loss of the QuikSCAT satellite. I can't think of a hurricane scientist out there who would defend using a study with only 19 cases that didn't focus on landfalling storms, to make the case Proenza is making--particularly in light of the data from the unpublished Goerss study showing no effect of QuikSCAT data on NOGAPS model tropical cyclone track errors. Proenza should have at least attached some measure of uncertainty to his numbers, which he did not.
One could argue that the study cited by Proenza has undergone peer review, and is thus the only scientific study one can use to make arguments on QuikSCAT's effectiveness. The Goerss study has not been published in a journal, and has not undergone peer review. However, Proenza was making his QuikSCAT accuracy arguments in March, two months before the Zapotocny study he cited had been accepted for publication.
QuikSCAT misconceptions
The numbers pushed by Proenza have led to some potentially serious misconceptions about QuikSCAT. The Congressional Record has this to say about QuikSCAT:
"A single plane gathering data is like a tiny fishing line collecting data only along the single strand of the line. The satellite, on the other hand, provides rich, detailed data horizontally from one side of the storm to the other side, and vertically, from the ocean surface to the top of the storms swirling winds. The QuikSCAT is like a detailed MRI."
Well, QuikSCAT is not like an MRI, it just measures the ocean surface winds. In a letter written by Representatives Melancon and Klein in support of H.R. 2531, there are comments that data from the reconnaissance aircraft are inferior to the data from the QuikSCAT:
"Short-term options for replacing QuikSCAT include hurricane hunter aircraft, buoys, and foreign satellites--all of which will collectively produce inferior data."
There is not a hurricane forecaster anywhere that would trade hurricane hunter data for QuikSCAT. Lawmakers may start cutting aircraft reconnaissance with misconceptions like this. That would be a disaster.
I would hate to lose the QuikSCAT satellite, and have been calling for a replacement since before Mr. Proenza came on the job. QuickSCAT data is invaluable in identifying weak systems and in defining storm structure, particularly of outer wind radii of 34 knots and 50 knots. This is particularly true outside of the Atlantic, where there are no Hurricane Hunter flights, and in the Atlantic beyond where the Hurricane Hunters can reach. Track forecasts for tropical cyclones in the Pacific and Indian Oceans may benefit from QuikSCAT data, since Hurricane Hunter information is not available. QuikSCAT also helps identify when a tropical depression or tropical storm is intensifying.
Besides hurricanes, the QuickSCAT data is invaluable to the Ocean Prediction Center, which now issues hurricane force wind warnings for extratropical storms in the Atlantic and Pacific. Search and rescue missions, and the U.S. Navy also greatly benefit from QuikSCAT. QuikSCAT should be replaced, but not due to a rush knee-jerk reaction that will get us a replacement with old technology. NHC needs a "next-generation" scatterometer, one that has greatly improved capabilities to help tackle the structure and intensity problem. We should take our time, and deal with a gap in coverage, if it gets us an instrument that has higher resolution, higher saturation speed, and is not adversely affected by rain. Such a gap would not put the public at risk.
It greatly troubles me that the most visible and admired member of my profession has failed to use good science in his arguments for funding a replacement of the QuikSCAT satellite. The Director of the National Hurricane Center needs to be an able politician and good communicator, but being truthful with the science is a fundamental requirement of the job as well. Mr. Proenza has misrepresented the science on the QuikSCAT issue, and no longer has my support as director of the National Hurricane Center.
Other critical concerns--lost in the hubbub?
We strongly support many of the valid concerns Proenza has raised. Of particular concern are the slashing of critical research funding for the Joint Hurricane Testbed (JHT) from $1.7 million to $1 million, and the lack of adequate yearly increases to the National Hurricane Center budget. Both of these important concerns still remain to be addressed; they were quickly overshadowed by a frantic campaign by lawmakers to fund a new QuikSCAT satellite. The JHT provides the means for promising research to be tested in the NHC operational environment, usually resulting in a successful transition to an operational product at NHC. This program has been extremely successful, and its budget should have been increased, not slashed. As hurricane activity has increased dramatically over the last twelve years, NHC's budget should have increased accordingly, but it did not.
Proenza also raised legitimate concerns about NOAA's effort to promote their "Corporate Identity" by renaming the National Hurricane Center and National Weather Service. The new organizations would be called the "NOAA Hurricane Center" and the "NOAA Weather Service". He also justly complained about NOAA's plan to spend between $1.5 million and $4 million on a "bogus" 200-year NOAA anniversary celebration.
While wanting to take a neutral stand as to whether to call for Proenza's dismissal, Senior NHC Hurricane Specialist Lixion Avila clearly shares the concerns that have been put forth by the other senior forecasters Richard Pasch, James Franklin, and Richard Knabb, and former director Max Mayfield. Avila noted, "If I [was] the director of the hurricane center, I would not spend my time fighting for QuikSCAT--I would be fighting to make sure that the reconnaissance planes are always there." That leaves a vacationing Jack Beven as the only senior hurricane forecaster to not comment publicly on the issue. Max Mayfield has refrained from making public comments on the deteriorating situation these past months, but all of his comments in the Miami Herald article lend support for the hurricane forecast staff. Given his previous experience in the position of NHC Director and his successful tenure, his feedback counts tremendously.
With the busiest part of hurricane season just a few weeks away, expect a decision on Bill Proenza's tenure to be made soon.
Jeff Masters and Margie Kieper
Having lost the support of most of his senior forecasters, and having misrepresented the science on the importance of the QuikSCAT satellite on hurricane forecasts, it would be best for Mr. Proenza to step down as director of the National Hurricane Center.

About the layout
I finally got around to making a new layout. I designed this one so that the banner, bars and background could be easily changed. I'm acutally pretty proud of this layout and it certainly works better for my TCG pages.
01/16/09 - I'm 21! My birthday was last week. As you can tell, I'm no long part of TCGs. I leave the pages up for nostagia, it was fun while it lasted. The only page reguarlu updated is My Collection and the About Me page.
09/01/07 - New Layout! Finally made my own and I acutally kind of like this one. The banner currently displayed is really bad quality so I'm going to redo it but I wanted to get the layout up. I made it simple so I could change the banner, top and bottom bars and the background colour easily.
08/26/07 - Removed Another World and Natsuyuuki but I've joined Odango cause right now I can't get enough of Sailor Moon. Working on a new layout that won't be image heavy cause I'm running out of space.
02/24/07 - Midterm time! Written 4 of 6 midterms so far and its going pretty well. Just joined Natsuyuki and have decided to take down Fanatic so links are being replaced.
12/28/06 - Merry Christmas everyone! Hope everyone had a good Christmas, I certianly did. My bought got my the car deck I had wanted. Took a bit to get it in since the car didn't come didn't come with the original car stereo I had to go savaging at a junk yard. But its in and looks good:) Next up is speakers.Joined Moonlight Legend! Also added some more pages. And since I probably won't update this page for a while, Happy New Year!
12/14/06 - I've checked through the TCG's and took off the ones that closed in my absence. Good bye Akai Ito, Olympia, Onigiri and Caelestis, I enjoyed being part of you all. All you owners did a great job! So I'm now offically back in business!
12/12/06 - OMG! I'm back! I was gone a lot longer than I thought but I'm back now. I'm acutally just finishing my first semester at Kwantlen. Next semester will definitely be harder with six computer course. Eeek.
