Johnson can take the reins
Thanks to the Journal Sentinel Editorial Board for its interesting editorial on Sen. Ron Johnson and climate change ("Johnson's climate position may not sit well with voters," Our View, Oct. 23).
The Republicans seem to have a simple choice on climate change: They either can remain associated with denialists, or they can take the lead and advance the country to a clean energy future.
Environmental Protection Agency regulations are on the way. States, such as California, are implementing greenhouse gas mitigation policies. The question is not whether mitigation will happen, but if it will be soon enough and fast enough to avoid climate catastrophe. The most effective policy must come through Congress, and that means Johnson, who prides himself (rightly) as not adhering to the in-the-Beltway conventions, could take the reins whenever he wants to.
A revenue neutral carbon tax would be imposed upon hydrocarbons at the point of extraction or importation. The revenues collected would be used to reduce other taxes, such as on income. The operative principle is simple: Tax more what you want less of and tax less what you want more of.
A levy should be imposed at the border, so that imports from jurisdictions that lack a price on carbon would not be able to unfairly undercut American industry.
Ross Astoria
Climate is science, not politics
The Journal Sentinel's editorial regarding voters' re-evaluation of Sen. Ron Johnson was both interesting and illuminating, if somewhat tepid and narrowly focused ("Johnson's climate position may not sit well with voters," Our View, Oct. 23).
Politicians' assessments of the cause(s) of the problem of global warming aside, euphemisms such as "climate change" and "global warming" should not be used in its characterization. The danger is properly understood to be a rapidly accelerating warming trend of our planet's waters, lands and air. And there is now a newly emergent climate phenomenon — the derecho — that can be scientifically explained only in terms of primary human involvement.
In any event. Johnson's untutored unconcern about the problem at hand is neither here nor there. What is of concern is that many know-nothings of his kind were swept into office on the tide of the tea party emergence in 2010 when we voters allowed politicians a place at the table of scientists. It was at that table that Michele Bachmann, a duly-elected tea party dilettante, informed the electorate that carbon dioxide is not a dangerous gas. So shame on us, the electorate, for our failure to understand that phenomena related to the accelerated warming trend are matters of scientific import, not political playthings.
For us Wisconsinites, the fact that Johnson was elected only begins to reveal our poor judgment and culpability, for Johnson defeated Russ Feingold. Put in perspective, that "trade" we made makes the management of the Chicago Cubs in 1964 seem downright prescient when it brought to Wrigley Field pitcher Ernie Broglio and sent Lou Brock on his way to St. Louis.

Blame Obama, not Walker
Gov. Scott Walker was correct in not developing a state health care exchange. When is the Journal Sentinel going to put blame where it belongs: $600 million and 31/2 years, and President Barack Obama can't get that right ("The fruits of Walker's decision, Our Views, Oct. 23). So the Editorial Board blames Walker. Wow!
The federal insurance exchange crashed with only a few hundred people applying the week before it was to become public. Yet the administration still went forward. We do not have to add state tax dollars to this mess.
Obama and his people are to blame — no one else. Obama acts as though he knew nothing about the troubles of this system, yet he is in charge of this country. I can't imagine the headlines if this had been former President George W. Bush's administration.
Craig DeVaud
Obama should apply — on TV
Some pro-Obamacare Journal Sentinel letters have become a bit shrill, calling critics "hateful," etc. Perhaps computer science can cool the rhetoric — a civic goal urged by President Barack Obama in 2007.
When the somewhat liberal and eccentric President Gerald Ford held office, the federal government urged every American to be vaccinated with a new "swine flu" vaccine to prevent an epidemic. In front of TV cameras, Ford boldly became one of the first Americans to receive that unproven flu shot.
One big anti-Obamacare claim is that it is "unworkable." A solid step in challenging that claim would be for Obama to sit down in front of a computer on national TV and fill out the application form for admission to an Obamacare insurance exchange program.
True, Obama is a graduate of the highly praised Harvard Law School and thus might have a knowledge-advantage over many uninsured Americans who say that the form is too difficult to fill out, even though they are required to do it to get Obamacare and avoid a federal fine. However — if announced in advance — this program could be one of the most-watched educational TV shows in history and could give many people confidence about filling out this required federal form.

It was Martin's 70th so we congratulated him and then got
off the boat and headed for the Chongquing Zoo by coach to see the famous

hungry Panda sitting on a raised platform munching bamboo. That's all they do

sand bed bubbles
I was noticing that bubbles were coming out of my substrate. I have a sand substrate. I think it is live sand. It is mostly white sand with some black grains mixed in with it. Anyways the bubbles don't come all the time they come out from different spots all the time maybe one bubble every 30 seconds or so. give or take.
The sand is thin about 1/2 thik on one side and maybe 2 inches think on the other side.
Any idea what that is?
Good or bad?
There is nothing to worry about every no and then I get tiny bubbles released from the sand. I think mine has something to do with the breakdown of nitrate. How deep is your sand bed? and how long have you had the tank running for again, I know you said it before (I think) I just cant remember. It could be from when you set it up you still have tiny pockets of air in your bed.

Goldman Sachs: US IT growth will barely beat inflation
Overall corporate IT expenditure among US-based firms will grow between 4% and 5% during 2005, according to investment analyst...
This Article Covers
Risk management
Overall corporate IT expenditure among US-based firms will grow between 4% and 5% during 2005, according to investment analyst Goldman Sachs.
This growth compares with the sub-3% growth seen in 2004, said Goldman Sachs, which was affected by uncertainty caused by the war in Iraq, oil prices, the US election, and factors such as the Sarbanes-Oxley corporate governance rules.
New technologies: a source of threat as well as a solution
Learn about fighting the ever evolving ransomware, IoT botnet malware and data manipulation attacks.
Goldman Sachs questioned 100 chief information officers at Fortune 1,000 companies to arrive at its predictions. Although the predicted growth was up on 2004, Goldman Sachs noted that this was barely higher than average GDP growth.
The sample reported that HP, Dell and IBM were set to gain in the enterprise server market, with Sun losing sales. On PCs, Dell and HP were set to grow with IBM losing market share. On Storage, Network Appliance and EMC were expected to gain market share with Sun slipping back.
However, Sun has had success with its new Solaris operating system, Solaris 10, which Goldman Sachs said, "has captured the attention of its installed base but has only begun to show a slight hint of interest beyond it".
Although it will not be officially released until the end of January, the next version of Sun's operating system, Solaris 10, is under evaluation or already in the planning stages for implementation among more than 80% of Sun's existing customers, the survey found.
This suggests that Solaris 10 has "enabled Sun to re-engage its customers, many of whom have been shifting from Sun's platform to Linux", the analysts said.

The badass 81-year-old star told Jess Cagle, the editorial director of EW and People, that she and her ex-husband Steve Parker practiced non-monogamy.

«Lu Chuan's City of Life and Death impresses by eschewing patriotic pride for a surprisingly balanced portrait of the Nanking Massacre. ... With strong acting, stunning cinematography, uncommonly thoughtful direction and flawless themes, City of Life and Death is nothing less than a powerful achievement. »
«What's surprising about "City" is all the things it isn't. It isn't a bombastic, nationalistic slice of melodrama; it isn't wall-papered with emotive music; and it isn't two-hours-plus of unmitigated grief and wailing.
Only partly because it's in black-and-white, the pic recalls Central Euro war dramas of the '50s and '60s (such as Andrzej Wajda's "Kanal"), with their powerful mixture of both grit and spiritual emptiness. But underneath the visual trappings, the movie remains deeply Chinese in its emotional underpinnings and relationships.»
«City Of Life And Death is more than just a slice of history - it's an exploration of human nature, of the relationship between individuals and crowds (and nations), and of the choices we must all ultimately make in order to carry what truly matters into the future.»
«For those viewers who feel they're up to some of the most heartbreaking cinematic set-pieces in recent memory without the possibility of Hollywood redemption, or exploring the furthest extremes of terror and desperation without resorting to flooding the screen with gore, "City of Life and Death" ranks among the finest films ever made and comes hugely recommended.»
«While the black-and-white cinematography and use of hand-held camerawork are signifiers of an art-house approach, the sometimes ham-fisted storytelling and sketchily developed characters reveal director Lu Chuan's more populist-minded intentions. The result is China's own version of a Hollywood Holocaust drama — ugly, often powerful and as problematic as nearly every other movie that tries to fit the horrors of genocide within the contours of a feature film. »
«Lu is also very adept at drawing the audience in to the action and evoking sympathy or disgust in equal measure, something he also mastered with his previous films Mountain Patrol about volunteers protecting antelope from poachers in Tibet. ... Although difficult to watch, the film packs an extremely powerful punch and is well worth watching»
«Impressively directed, beautifully shot and superbly written, this is a powerfully emotional drama with terrific performances from a fine ensemble cast, though some scenes may prove too upsetting for some viewers.»
«Passionate and expertly crafted, this black-and-white opus is well worth seeking out.»

Companies commonly base executive compensation on performance. Now, a growing number of businesses are linking top leaders' pay and bonuses to achieving corporate environmental goals. According to a 2013 joint report done by the Investor Responsibility Research Center and the Sustainable Investments Institute, 43% of Fortune 500 companies link executive pay to sustainability.
The N.C. House of Representatives approved a final reading of a bill that is expected to bar public projects from using the USGBC's LEED program. The bill will now move to the state senate for review. H.B. 628 says that public projects may use "a nationally recognized high-performance environmental building rating system" if that program doesn't use a credit system "disadvantaging materials or products manufactured or produced" in N.C.
The new NASA Sustainability Base at the Ames Research Center in Mountain View, California will exceed the requirements of LEED Platinum with systems that will eventually use only renewable energy and closed-loop water maintenance facilities. Atop the two-story 50,000-square-foot building is a solid-oxide fuel cell and rooftop solar arrays, supplying the building with more energy than it requires and sending surplus electricity back into the grid.
Boston will become the eighth city in the U.S. with an energy rating policy, following similar recent legislation in Philadelphia and Minneapolis. The citywide building energy rating and disclosure policy, passed by the city council on May 8, applies to all commercial buildings 35,000 square feet or larger and residential buildings with 35 units or more. The ordinance requires building owners to report and disclose energy and water usage and greenhouse gas emissions and will cover approximately 1,600 buildings.
The New York City Council approved Cornell's two-million-square-foot tech carbon positive campus planned for Roosevelt Island. Construction will commence with the first, state-of-the-art academic building that will feature the latest environmental advances, such as geothermal and solar power, to achieve net-zero energy for the landmark structure.
Homewood Mountain Resort in Northern Lake Tahoe earned the Golden Eagle Award for environmental stewardship by the National Ski Areas Association (NSAA), in honor of Homewood's commitment to innovative watershed management and the water-quality monitoring. The annual award is NSAA's highest environmental honor and recognizes exemplary environmental performance in the ski resort industry.
The American Institute of Architecture's annual list of the most sustainable new structures around the country includes a brewery, a school, and a senior housing facility. Half of this year's winners are in California.
Colorado's Ecotech Institute tracks the growth of the green job market. New data reveals over 700,000 clean jobs posted across the United States between January 1, 2013 and March 31, 2013.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced the selection of 240 recipients recommended to receive $62.5 million in grants to protect people's health and the environment in local communities. These new investments, funded by EPA's Brownfields Assessment, Revolving Loan Fund, and Cleanup (ARC) grants, provide communities with funding necessary to assess, cleanup, and redevelop contaminated properties, boost local economies, and leverage jobs.
The USGBC released an infographic of "LEED in the World." The U.S., China, and the UAE lead the world because they have the most LEED projects.
Detroit has emptied out so much in the last few decades that certain neighborhoods are starting over from scratch to be more sustainable. Boston-based Sasaki Associates, for instance, has come up with an ambitious plan called TechTown to replace abandoned, crumbling infrastructure with sustainable development.
Green roofs save energy, improve water management, and expand natural space. National Geographic grantee Clark DeLong is studying how adding native species to green roofs can provide conservation and add habitat.
Alternative Visions Fund is given $4.5 million to the University of Utah S.J. Quinney College of Law to construct a LEED platinum building, an achievement no other law school has gained.
Augustus F. Hawkins High School, part of the of Los Angeles Unified School District, was designed to meet the United States' first green building rating program especially designed for K-12 schools: the Collaborative for High Performance Schools (CHPS). It uses low-emitting health-conscious materials and products and a "cool roof" to reduce energy use by up to 50%.
A Rockville, Maryland, office building developed by The Tower Cos. and Lerner Enterprises has earned an international reputation for being one of the world's greenest buildings. Green building experts Jerry Yudelson and Ulf Meyer featured 2000 Tower Oaks Blvd. in their recently published book, "The World's Greenest Buildings: Promise vs Performance in Sustainable Design."
Martin Luther King Jr. Senior High School of Detroit earned LEED gold for its 198,000-square-foot expansion.

James L. McCamy (1906-1995) was a professor of
Science at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and my undergraduate
adviser when I was a senior (1969-1970).
Jim introduced me both to the field of public administration
and the
topic of government public relations, the latter the subject of his
and first book. The more I heard, the more interested I became.
Thanks to his excellent advice, I applied to do graduate work at
Syracuse University's
Maxwell School. I earned a Ph.D. in Public
Administration and wrote my
dissertation on government PR (and Congressional efforts to control
it). Jim was the best mentor a person could wish for. He
showed me
two scholarly paths that I otherwise would never had known about. For
me, both subjects became lifelong interests. I am eternally indebted to
For those interested in government public
relations, I have compiled a bibliography of his
writings on that subject (in chronological order):
Perhaps my own writings on government public relations
might be viewed as a continuation of his oeuvre, albeit in a minor key.

Totally hopeless. I bought a brand new KIA from them in 2012 and was getting them to service it. At the last service they didn't bother telling me that all of my tyres needed replacing and one of them came to pieces as I was driving along at 100km/hr. They also said a vibration in the engine bay was the result of stone caught in a guard, which they claimed they ...read more
Excellent - we bought a used vehicle from BMG & have to say these guys were honest & extremely helpful. I couldn't recommend these guys highly enough. We came up from Brisbane to buy the car & they put us up in a motel for the night and really looked after us. Paul, Gordon & Kerrie are real friendly professionals. I'd happily buy my next vehicle from these guys again

Resource Allocation Analysis Model Based on Grid Environment
In this paper, the authors propose a performance analysis of resource allocation model for grid resources under the grid computing environment. By the proposed model, they can make all grid nodes be load-balancing. The proposed model can detect the grid nodes resource status about CPU usage and memory usage, analyze the grid nodes resources load grades, and make the plans and allocations of the resources of collaborative nodes optimize. Via implementing this model, they can enhance the grid environment performance efficiently.

Private letter to Mindy
Mindy disappeared from Anderson, IN. after being picked up by the police.
Our mother told us Mindy had been found among the murdered, but unidentified, Jane Doe after running away from home. My siblings and I weren't completely convinced because we had never seen any kind of proof, so shortly after our mother's death in 2003 we carefully sifted through every single box of Mom's old papers finding only a small amount of helpful information about our sister.
I began posting ads on the internet's "Missing Loved Ones" bulletin boards, to look for Mindy and find out if she was possibly looking for us. The first response encouraged us to contact the Doe Network, to find out if Mindy was among their Jane Doe files, just in case she had escaped, since run-a-ways often find their way to ill fate.
The Indiana Director for Doe Network, Angie Bunch joined us wholeheartedly in our search. After researching the Doe files that fit into the time frame and had any similarities with Mindy's description, she said that she was fairly sure Mindy was not among the Jane Doe, and that it was her personal belief that we should reopen the missing person case on Melinda and continue to search for her among the living also. I did my share of looking at the photos, sketches and clay models of the unidentified also and feel hopeful that my sister is still alive.
Madison County's Detective "David Callahan" discovered that after Mindy was picked up she was moved to the old Blake house. She either escaped or tried to escape, but no one is sure of which. Her SS# was never used again after 1979, which was yet another hindrance, but he was able to track down Mindy's dental records that had been stored away long ago and collected the necessary elements for the rebuilding of Mindy's DNA to compare with the Jane Doe.
We also came across a faded letter informing Mom that a court date had been set for either the 2nd, 8th or 9th of April 1980" from Madison County Juvenile Probation Dept. with a case number on it. The intake officer was Debbie Henson. The court was to "advise child and parent". It stated that Melinda would be provided with an attorney if she requested one and that our mother would be responsible for payment of any and all services provided for Melinda, and herself, if counseling was required.
This letter could mean that my little sister did not disappear September 1979, but was still in custody April 1980. I don't know why Mom never told our family. This raises a few more questions.
Was Melinda still in the old Blake House when this letter was mailed to my mother?
What happened to my little sister after she was at the old Blake house, which no longer exists?
Did my mother abandon her there, just to avoid paying a hefty bill to the State?
Does anyone that was present at the old Blake house remember Melinda?
Where were girls sent after the Blake house if they were abandoned there or if they needed rehabilitation?
I hope that Mindy will see this web site and find out that we are all so very sorry and we are dong everything we can to reach her. Each time I check the e-mails I hope to see a message from her. I know that it might be very difficult for her to take that step, since so many years have passed us by, but that is all the more reason to do it. Please, Mindy, if you see this, e-mail us. We miss you horribly.
The Lord is near to the brokenheartedand
saves the crushed in spirit. (Psalm 34: 18)

I am sorry your other parent is now a stranger & outsider to you. It did not have to be this way after the divorce. You enjoyed a relationship with your other parent until your custodial parent replaced your other parent with a step parent & met NJ residency requirements to refile a divorce complaint. Your custodial parent sought divorce, moved you from the family home, filed bankruptcy included family home ensured your other parent got 100% of debt, so you would be uncomfortable & in an unfamiliar new home that you would not want to visit your other parent at. Your custodial parent stopped your visits, stopped transporting to the meet up location, interfered with your phone calls, filed many police complaints to deny u access so you would be denied opportunies to enjoy a healthy relationship with your other parent. Your custodial parent reminded you that your other parent: does not pay enough, was not there for you, never went to court, signed misleading unprovisioned document terms, called you, yet your other parent seldom was allowed to speak to you during that time, your other parent was forced out of your life. Your custodial parent lied & manipulated your emotions, denied you access to your other parent, destroyed that relationship, exposed you to adult financial disgruntlements & did not support your other parental relationship. So for the last 2000 days you did not enjoy any encouragement, holidays, summer vacations, weekend visits, Christmas presents, & birthday presents from your other parent because your custodial parent did not support your parental relationship with your other parent. Your memories have been stolen, 5 yrs erased awkward, huh. Maybe you fear rejection from one or both parents, bitter for being duped, you never realized your custodial parent denied you & you never had a choice, you could not have stopped your custodial parent's behavior; these are issues no kid deal with. If you take one thing from this, you are person not a possession. You have emotional needs that have been neglected. You should not have been your custodial parent's confidant; you were just a kid. Your custodial parent failed u because u have no memories or relationship with your other parent. Your friends who have divorced parents see both parents, right? You have a voice & you deserve to tell your other parent what a terrible parent they were: they did not take care of you, did not pay enough, left u to deal with the divorce issues, u did not want to be in the middle, did not visit, were never there, wouldnt let minor date adults, did nothing for you, made u attend church, or whatever that other parent's defect was. After all your other parent didn't attend your events, teach you to ride your bike, swim, hunt, fish, or provide for you prior to/after the divorce, or did they? Your other parent did not show you love at all your whole life, or did they? Who stole your voice? How has your custodial parent's distorted actions & point of view about your other parent affected you? Your silence says a lot why you are unable to answer why you dont want a relationship with your other parent. Even angry kids have reasons. What did this other parent do? Just because your parents are divorced does not mean you must sever your other parent ties; you can love 2 parents. Trust broken is hard to repair. Your deserved to enjoy a relationship with both parents after the divorce. I am sorry your cus...

Comments about Sabian Vault Artisan Crash Cymbal:
Good dark crash w/ a great bell to add to my mix of cymbals. Got a great deal on a cymbal blowout. The best I have ever seen on this product! I took one star from review because of the slow delivery - about six weeks. I love the cymbal though, & may be going back to Sabian because of it.

Comments about Sabian Vault Artisan Crash Cymbal:
I got the 16" model and it is by far the best sounding cymbal I own. Rich yet clean, penetrating yet sensitive... everything I want in a cymbal!
I usually play pretty quietly, so I can't say how it would be for louder rock and metal, though I imagine it would still cut through fine.

Comments about Sabian Vault Artisan Crash Cymbal:
Adding on to the previous reviews, this crash is truly in it's own category when it comes to describing it fully. A clean, full crash with a touch of trash in the sustain of the cymbal. It feels like 2 crashes being struck at one time. What I love the most about this cymbal is the separation of the bell sound and the crash sounds. With the majority of crash cymbals when you strike the bell, it sounds like a blend of crash and bell instead of being two separate sounds. This Crash has the bell characteristics of a ride cymbal, which makes this crash very versatile musically. Now this cymbal will test the dynamic range of the player because it is very responsive. In conclusion, you can't put a price tag on good music, and this is it right here.

Comments about Sabian Vault Artisan Crash Cymbal:
This crash is my main crash in a set of cymbals I have the utmost respect for. It falls right in with my other Sabian HHX's because it is just as cutting, complex, smooth and even more it's personalized by the Artisan who made it. Mine (17') has the right amount of trashy to it yet sounds as clean live as a mastered recording in the mix. Not cutting enough for Heavy Metal or Extremely Hard Rock being just a 17 but it out sings its size. And really it would be too thin for those heavy hitting styles. Small, really small rooms make it loud but still very useable as you could tap it or play it with your hand even. Great in the home studio as well, which makes it the go to cymbal for someone who loves their craft and makes the money off of it to afford these cymbals.
Comments about Sabian Vault Artisan Crash Cymbal:
I bought this from Musician's Friend based only on reviews from other websites and youtube demonstrations -- and I'm glad I did.First of all, this cymbal is a work of art. Its craftsmanship is palpable, it looks and feels like something explicitly designed to do what it does and, as my bassist remarked at a show, it looks great under lights!But more important is its sound. This cymbal doesn't away from the limelight. It's bold and penetrating and makes its presence known. It has a shimmery, bright personality with a quicker decay than most. I use my 17" model with my snare hits, saving my big crashes for my 18" Sabian Manhattan Jazz. However, the Artisan more than performs well; it shines when i hit it and its my go-to cymbal for accents and projection. These Artisans WILL NOT sound like a regular crash cymbal - they're professional and different than the rest. So please expect them to be noticed rather than fade back in the cymbal wash of generic crashes.I've given it 4.5 stars for value simply because it so expensive, but you'll be paying for quality and workmanship, not just a name. In fact, the Artisan crash is another step in my weaning away from Zildjian and towards Sabian.

Nash, for her part, was looking for her third victory at the event. The action was hot, the speeds were high, and Cross Vegas did not disappoint. Join Colt McElwaine and this week's guest host, Bob Roll, as they take you through all the action on BTB TV Presents: Clif Bar Cross Vegas.
