Careers in Dairy – Faces of Tasmanian Dairy
As part of its Faces of Dairy campaign DairyTas has produced a number of farmer videos highlighting careers and roles in the Tasmanian dairy industry. A series of 12 videos are being produced. Farmer stories are a powerful way to promote the Tasmanian dairy industry. Specific objectives of the Legendairy Faces of Tasmania campaign are:
- To improve the profile and reputation of the Tasmanian dairy industry within the state.
- Generate interest and awareness in Tasmania internationally as a sustainable and profitable dairy sector.
- To raise awareness and preference about career opportunities and pathways in the Tasmanian dairy industry.
Stepping Stones – Career Pathways in the Dairy Industry
The new Stepping Stones career pathways resource has been developed by DairyTas and Dairy Australia in response to the need for better information to outline and explain the opportunities available for new and existing dairy farmers. It aims to assist people with planning a career and seeing what pathways may be open to them.
Stepping Stones has been produced from Dairy Australia's Workforce Planning and Action project as an important resource for the industry in its efforts to attract, retain and develop more people in the industry. Stepping Stones is being launched by the Minister for Primary Industries and Water, the Hon Jeremy Rockliff and the Managing Director of Dairy Australia, Ian Halliday on June 30th 2014.
It is the most comprehensive dairy careers information source of its type available on the dairy industry and will help people better understand what jobs are available around dairying.
We need more people to look at dairying as a career in Tasmania and this will assist in making it happen. Stepping Stones covers job information and profiles real farmers in different jobs. It shows how some in the industry have progressed and what is possible. Seven (7) different dairy farmers and employees are part of Stepping Stones. They each give their story on how they entered the industry and what steps they have taken.
This resource is important for young people in the industry and for people who may be looking at entering the dairy industry. It will be valuable as an education and career resource in the schools and will complement existing school programs like Cows Create Careers.
Stepping Stones is available in hard copy from DairyTas and as downloadable PDF format:
The Employment Starter Kit (ESKi) was officially launched at the DairyTas AGM on the 14th November 2013.
This information folder is a resource to make it straightforward for farmers to employ staff and to minimise the business risk around getting it wrong. It provides easy access to the documents you need to employ someone; covering the law, payroll, leave, agreements and the Award, termination and safety.
Please download and complete the order form to obtain your copy. You can also call DairyTas on 6432 2233 or email email@example.com to arrange to have your copy delivered. DairyTas reps are also available to walk you through this kit and discuss how it will work for you.
Young Dairy Network Australia (YDNA)
The Young Dairy Network Australia (YDNA) has been established to ensure that regional young farmer groups are supported nationally and provides them with an avenue to share information, exchange ideas and stay connected.
Young Dairy Network Tasmania (YDN Tas)
The Young Dairy Network Tasmania (YDN Tas) is the regional network in the state. Groups will operate in each of the main dairying regions, currently including a group in the North East, Central North and North West regions. There is the opportunity to have a fourth regional group in the South, depending on interest. Each regional group is driven by local farmers to ensure activities meet the needs of the local community. The Network will be a collaborative effort amongst industry stakeholders within the state. The groups with aim to:
- Assist the next generation of dairy farmers to further develop their skill sets
- Assist younger farmers in dealing with issues specific to their needs
- Encourage enthusiasm and motivation to young people in the dairy industry
- Provide inspiration to young farmers and new entrants to stay within the industry
- Provide opportunities for developing networks and relationships with other young farmers and people throughout the industry, and
- Ensure the young farmer network is maintained across the Tasmanian dairy industry.
YDN Tas is on Facebook
To stay up to date with news and information on what is happening, and any events coming up, as part of the YDN Tas, visit our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/ydntas This is also a good way to stay connected with other young people involved in the industry, and any news and events from other networks around the country.

Project reports
King Island Solar Hot Water Project
King Island dairy farmers now have one more energy option thanks to funding from the Renewable Energy Fund – King and Flinders Island (funded by Department of Infrastructure Energy and Resources). As part of this fund, 8 suitable sheds on King Island had an Apricus commercial solar hot water system installed (Lion are yet to install the 9th system). Funds from renewable energy certificates were used to install LED energy efficient lighting as well. The project was coordinated and run by Darren Cooper (Tas Energy and Heating) and Rachel Brown (Dairy NRM Technical Specialist).

Short term effluent management (STEM) project
This project will trial an alternative strategy for managing effluent. Researchers have estimated that methane emissions from ponds can be substantially reduced by distributing effluent more frequently; avoiding the long solids retention time common under a more typical approach to pond management. This project will develop a 'hybrid' system as effluent will continue to be stored during the winter period, but during the remainder of the year, it will be distributed as frequently as possible (whenever there is a soil moisture deficit greater than the minimum effluent application depth).
The project will also demonstrate the use of storage tanks for managing effluent. Above-ground effluent storage tanks are becoming more common on farms in New Zealand where high rainfall, high water tables and highly permeable soils mean that excavated, earthen storage ponds are not appropriate.
The project will run until early 2017 and will involve a number of open days on the Tasmanian co-operating farm (to be announced).
This project is supported by funding from the Commonwealth Government's Action on the Ground program.
Lowering nitrogen use in temperate pasture based dairy systems through the adoption of Smart-N WeedSeeker technology
Within intensive pasture based dairy systems the application of fertiliser nitrogen (N) onto urine patches can cause economic loss and negative environmental impacts due to excess N being lost into the environment. Smart-N™ WeedSeeker® technology is a sensor based precision agriculture technology that aims to apply liquid based N fertiliser onto pasture without applying N onto urine patches. The system works by detecting differences in normalised difference vegetation index (NDVI) between high N (urine patches) and low N areas and deactivates corresponding spray nozzles to prevent the application of fertiliser N to these N rich areas.
Smart-N™ WeedSeeker® technology is a new technology and consequently there is little available knowledge about its accuracy and precision. A recent Honours thesis, undertaken by Mr. Rob Snare at the School of Agricultural Science (UTAS) and supported by DairyTas, examined the efficacy of this technology at varying sensitivity settings in detecting a urine area. Five artificial urine N concentration treatments equivalent to 0kg N/ha (control), 150kg N/ha, 300kg N/ha, 450kg N/ha and 600kg N/ha were arranged as a randomised complete block design with 12 blocks within a temperate pasture at Cambridge, Tasmania. Plots were non-destructively sampled 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 12, 15, 19, 24, 30 and 44 days after application (DAA) of the urine treatments. Measurements of the accuracy and precision of the Smart-N™ WeedSeeker® technology under the sensitivity of 2,6,8,9 and 10 where the 2 represents a lower NDVI threshold and 10 a higher NDVI threshold were undertaken. This thesis concluded that the Smart-N™ is capable of detecting differences in the NDVI between high N and low N areas. According to research up to 23% of a pasture may be affected by urine patches. Therefore, if the Smart-N™ system operated perfectly and avoided the application of N to all urine patches, N use could be reduced by as much as 23%. However, further development of the system is required to reduce the discrepancy between actual reduction in N use and the theoretical maximum of 23% reduction in N use. The major limitation with the Smart-N™ system in this study was the inaccuracy and unevenness of calibration. Improvements in the calibration methodology are needed to ensure all sensors activate in the same manner and that calibration occurs at the appropriate level of NDVI. Accurate calibration will allow for more accurate research and help provide an indication as to the potential reductions in N use that may be achieved by using this technology.
Tactics for Tight Times
Dairy Australia funded DairyTas to deliver the Tight Times Management Project in 2012/13 to assist farmers with financial management during the 12/13 season in Tasmania. The project had 2 main components. Firstly, a series of financial workshops from 16–18 July 2012 with presentations from Penny Williams, Basil Doonan and Paul Briant (RFCS) and secondly the operation of a Monitor Farms program across 3 dairy farms during the season. The project was completed in March 2013.
Details on the 3 monitor farms (Twose, Chandler and Burr) are shown below.
Presentations from the workshops are attached along with the capital budget and cashflow for the case study presented. This case study is fictional and aimed to give farmers a process to work through alternative scenarios with the impact on farm profitability and cashflow demonstrated.
Dairy Industry launches new Dairy Cattle Welfare Guide
Launched in June 2012. Copies are available from DairyTas and TFGA. It is designed to provide farmers and workers in the industry with up to date information on animal welfare in the Dairy Industry, identifying what is acceptable and best practice and where to go for further information.

Speculations About Microsoft's Open Source CodePlex Foundation
A few developers have tried to discern the goal behind Microsoft's CodePlex Foundation established just a week ago. A legal advisor for the Linux Foundation has made some recommendations to what he considers the foundation's faulty organizational structure.
Deputy director of the CodePlex Foundation Mark Stone could do no better than be vague when trying to explain what the foundation is all about. In the CodePlex Google group, Stone emphasized that the Contribution and License Agreements currently found on their website are just a "starting point" to spark further discussion about transfer of rights. Another question asked what the new foundation will actually do for developers and why they should depend on it instead of, say, the Apache Foundation. Stone's reply: "We've looked at the processes and licensing concerns of software companies and believe that there's room for a different approach in the mix that will benefit the software industry and the open source community." He feels that firms and organizations have inherent challenges in property rights, patents, competition and vendor negotiations in the open source community: "I think that's the world that most commercial software managers and/or product managers live in." The foundation could take on a negotiating role between closed source and open source projects, and even participate in projects like Apache. Unfortunately he couldn't furnish any concrete details how it would do it.
The goal of the foundation then, according to the Google group discussion, is to find developers in closed source enterprises to contribute to open source projects. This does not mean supporting specific projects or even promoting open source technologies. Yet, Stone asserts, "one of the places where the CodePlex Foundation will differ from other foundations is in being focused on business challenges, not technology challenges." The result should be an enhancement to, rather than a replacement for, other open source foundations like Apache's. Others in the discussion wondered whether Microsoft was using the foundation to further its own purposes, which Stone dismissed by declaring that it will by no means focus on .NET projects.
The legal advisor for the Linux Foundation has meanwhile pondered CodePlex Foundation's Microsoft-heavy makeup and memberless business structure, in a ConsortiumInfog.org blog. In response to Microsoft's claim of establishing an open and neutral platform, Linux Foundation's Andy Updegrove perused the current CodePlex business plan and created a FAQ in the blog based on his observations. Updegrove's "bottom line" statement: "There are a lot of games you can play when structuring an organization to make it look open, but still be sure that the founders will have a lot of control for a long time." His recommendations especially mark the foundation's organizational structure: the board of directors should have "no fewer than 11 members," "no company and its affiliates (including Microsoft) can have more than one representative" and it should have an open membership policy. In his opinion the foundation should separate itself from Microsoft financially and organizationally.
Mark Stone, by CodePlex.org accounts, is the only paid staff member for the recently established foundation, which currently has a six-member board of directors and 12-member advisory board. By Stone's own account, he's been a Linuxer since 1994 and was the Linux editor at O'Reilly, SourceForge and other places. Since mid-2008 he has been on Sam Ramji's open source strategy team at Microsoft.
Andrew Updegrove has been a legal advisor at the Linux Foundation since 2007. Partner in a law firm in Boston MA, he has participated in the Digistan.org and ConsortiumInfo.org platforms for open standards and developed a derivative of The Hague Declaration of Human Rights to apply to free and open digital standards.

A lawyer from Iberian firm Cuatrecasas Gonçalves Pereira is one of the latest high-profile figures to be questioned in relation to a data-trafficking scandal that first came to light in Spain last year.
An investigation carried out by Spanish police has revealed that Javier Llorente Busquets, a labour partner at Cuatrecasas' Barcelona office, hired a private detective who is alleged to be involved in Operación Pitiusa, the largest ever data-trafficking network scandal in Spanish history.
The investigation began last year after it was discovered that a local policeman in Barcelona had allegedly sold private data related to vehicle licence plates and their drivers. To date it is believed that around 150 people are in some way implicated in the scandal.
After months of investigation, in May the Barcelona police arrested over 70 people who they believe have some connection to the scandal. One of those arrested was Sara Dioniso García, the owner and director of private investigation and intelligence group Strategia.
The police have also called in a number of people, who are believed to have hired a private investigator but are not believed to have been involved or aware of any alleged illegal practices, as witnesses. However, after hearing a recorded telephone conversation between Llorente and Dionisio, Llorente was brought in for questioning so the police could attempt to determine whether he had been aware of the use of illegal methods to obtain the private information.
Earlier this year Llorente spoke to the police to clarify his relationship with Dionisio. According to reports, Llorente asked Dionisio to find out private information about a vehicle that was relevant to a court case in which he was acting a matter of days later involving the driver of the vehicle.
In Llorente's statement to the police, he denied all knowledge that the information he had requested had been obtained illegally or was of a confidential nature or that he had been in contact with anyone that could provide him with illicit information of this nature. Llorente confirmed that he had received an email in which he stated that "the fee for the services" would amount to between €400-500, but said that this had not yet been paid.
Another lawyer from a different firm, who is also believed to have contracted Dionisio, has been brought in for questioning.
In a statement, a spokesperson for the firm commented: "Javier Llorente is completely unconnected with the trafficking plot. As he has already stated and confirmed for the police in a timely fashion, he was completely unaware of any illegal activity perpetrated by the investigator, who merely acted as an external service provider, and did not at one moment consider that the service was being carried out illegally."
The news follows a series of significant departures from Cuatrecasas' labour and employment department. Last week Sonia Cortés defected to labour boutique Abdón Pedrajas & Molero (25 July 2012), the previous week a prominent labour partner Javier Hervás left the firm (25 June 2012) and just a few weeks earlier a team of one partner and four associates jumped ship to KPMG Abogados (25 June 2012).

Working mothers
A friend of mine is a professor at a community college. Yesterday she told me that she intentionally posts controversial subjects to the discussion board of her online classes in order to get her students to think, reason and write. One such subject is whether parents should work outside the home or stay home and care for their kids.
I've heard a lot of people talk about this over the years and there are a few things I think often get overlooked in this discussion, namely sexism, racism and classism.
Sexism: I want to start out saying, for the record, that almost all mothers work. The only ones I can think of who do not are the really wealthy women who neither have paid jobs nor raise their own children, but as they are very rare, I'm going to exclude them from my discussion for now (even more rare are fathers who fit this category). I recognize that raising children and running a home (including cooking, cleaning, etc) is a lot of work and, unless one is rarely paid work unless one is paid to raise someone else's children and clean their home and cook their meals. Yet when social conservatives say that a woman should stay home with their children rather than have a paid job, they mean just that: WOMEN should stay home. They do not make this demand of men. I even once heard a woman who does career counseling say that she regretted having a paid job rather than staying home with her children (and I was quite surprised to hear her say this, although, in hindsight, she is actually a very conservative person). Yet, she never said that perhaps her husband should have given up his career to raise the children while she earned money. Conservatives put this as an either-or: love your children so much you stay home with them or selfishly choose a career. Men, however, can have both No one says they are giving their children less than 100% even if the father is at work eight hours a day. Furthermore, as half of heterosexual marriages in the US end in divorce, a woman who chooses to stay home is taking a financial gamble. If she drops out of the job market she will have a hole in her resume, less money in her bank account/savings and pay less into Social Security (which will mean she'll get less per month when she retires). If she never divorces or becomes widowed young, her gamble pays off, but there's a one in two chance that she will lose this gamble.
Classism: Many women--single, married, divorced or widowed--simply cannot afford NOT to earn money. Food, housing and health care are expensive, especially if one MUST work full time in order to get health care for one's self and one's family. Conservatives trash so-called "welfare" mothers who stay home to raise their children rather than "earning" a living, yet also trash middle class women who earn a wage working outside the home rather than staying home to raise their children. Indeed, many women who used to receive public assistance have literally been forced by the government to take (usually low-paying) jobs, even if that means leaving their children home unsupervised because they cannot afford childcare because the US provides little to no financial support for childcare for parents who earn wages outside the home, nor does the US have a real public childcare system. In France, for example, any parent can enroll their child in pre-school just as they would in a public school. The pre-school is free, open to all children and open during the hours when almost all parents need to be at their paid job. This is not only a way of supporting working families and making it easier for employers to depend on parents as employees but creates jobs in the form of pre-school teachers. Remember several years ago when a six-year-old shot a girl in his class? He got the gun from his uncle's house where he was staying (unsupervised) during the day because his uncle had to work and his mother--who had been receiving welfare--was forced by the government to take a paying job. As previously mentioned, there is no public childcare, so she had no choice but to leave her six-year-old home alone. When word of the girl's shooting death hit the news media many people called for the mother to be arrested because she did not sufficiently supervise her child, but how could she have? Michael Moore in "Bowling for Columbine" followed the mother's work schedule. She had to get up before dawn to ride a bus to the job the government had assigned her--waiting tables at Dick Clarke's "American Bandstand" restaurant--work all day then ride the bus home as she could not afford a car to take her home. All her money went to pay for food and rent, so the only childcare available to her was the public school during school hours. She literally could not make sure her child had the care he needed the rest of the hours she way away. Oh, by the way, the woman is African American, which brings us to the next point...
Racism: The government forced an African American woman to leave her child home unattended so that she could work serving food to European Americans. Does this sound familiar? When slavery was legal, most plantation owners had a system by which one older slave woman would care for all the plantation's young slave children (until they were old enough to work) so that the children's slave parents* could work the fields or the house rather than spend time raising their own children. In his autobiography, Frederick Douglas said that he knew who his birth mother was, but had no relationship with her as he was raised on the plantation by the designated slave childcare provider. When his birth mother died, he therefore did not grieve. He said he did not know who his birth father was, but he may well have been the plantation owner. When applying for a job with an organization that specifically helps working women, the woman interviewing me mentioned that for African American women, there had never been a choice between earning a living or staying home to care for one's children. African American woman had always had to earn (or, as slaves, work for someone else's economic benefit). In an article I once read about women who did choose to stay home with their children, the one African American woman interviewed said that whenever she took her children somewhere on a weekday, everyone assumed she was a "welfare mom" even though her husband actually earned a LOT of money and that family could afford to have one parent not working.
*Of course, some of these kids were the unacknowledged children of Euro-American members of the plantation-owning family or their employees, but those Euro-Americans were hardly going to care for these children. Obviously, this was immoral, but it just further supports my argument about racism being a factor in this entire discussion.

Matthew Shepherd
About a week ago Lexi and I watched "The Laramie Project." The following First Day in Meeting for Worship this message came to me:
"My wife and I watched 'The Laramie Project' recently about how the people of Laramie, Wyoming, dealth with the murder of Matthew Shepherd in October 1998. It brought me to tears remembering his death. I know at the time that my parents were terrified that if someone would kill a young gay man in Wyoming, then why not their own gay daughter, only a year younger, living in another state. In one court room scene in the film, an actor portraying Matthew's father reads the speech he really gave during the sentencing, telling Matthew's killer that the family would not seek the death penalty and that each birthday and Christmas the young man had from that day on he should be grateful to Matthew that he is still alive. It reminded me that in December of 1998, while I was homing visiting from college, I attended my home Meeting with my family and got a strong message that I should ask everyone to pray for Matthew's killers. I don't remember their names* nor did Spirit tell me what exactly we should pray for. Perhaps that they come to understand the pain they caused? That they overcome their hate and find peace? But I was so overcome that First Day in 1998 that I couldn't deliver my message. So, I'm delivering it today and asking Friends to pray for these two men."
*I later looked up their names: Aaron McKinney and Russel Henderson.

Troy Davis Executed
I'm sad to announce that Georgia executed Troy Davis yesterday (Wednesday, Sept 21, 2011) at 11 pm. Much doubt surrounded his case, including sworn affidavits from witnesses who said they were coerced into testifying against him. The circumstances look especially grim given that Troy Davis was an African American man accused of killing a Euro-American police officer. Even if Troy Davis did indeed kill the police officer, neither he nor anyone else should ever be executed. Killing is wrong, even when committed by the state.

Mac is better!
My parents' dog Mac is better. He indeed had cancer and had to have his front, left leg removed. He still has some pain and is going through chemo, but he's not in nearly as much pain as he was before.

Good news! Yes, Mac definitely had bone cancer, but the vet was able to amputate his leg and so (we think) remove the entire tumor. Now that he's in recovery and on the right pain medication, Mac is happy again. He should live another year. We still don't know if his cough is due to the cancer spreading to his lungs or if it is just seasonal allergies, but at least he's not in pain anymore.

Mum called yesterday to say that it looks as if her dog Mac has bone cancer that has spread to his lungs. He's getting a biopsy from an expert tomorrow to confirm, but if it is certain that it is cancer we will need to put him to sleep so that he's not in pain any more.
Mac is 10. Mum got him the day I graduated from Northwestern (while my dad and sister were conveniently out of town). He's very good. We call him the Quaker dog because he's so quite and likes to meditate or just watch the world, unlike the puppies who bark at everything and everyone.
We originally got Mac to keep Bunky company after his brother Noodle died.

A few weeks ago, two men came to my door to try to convert me. I very quickly told them we're gay. They stood there stunned for a few moments, then looked at each other. They then talked about how the Bible doesn't approve of gay men (I noticed they carefully didn't say anything about queer women) and about marriage. I told them Lexi and I had a Quaker wedding at which we made promises--not vows, because those would be oaths and Quakers don't take oaths, I pointed out. They asked if I had read the Bible and I said I had. I told them my wife's a Christian.
They told me where their Kingdom Hall is and I said I had driven past it a few times.
In the end, they handed me a copy of "The Watchtower" and left. They have not been back since, which probably indicates that we're on their "don't bother with these people" list.
I know the Jehovah's Witness church (if that's the word they use?) isn't gay friendly and I was wondering if they, like the Mormons, are not even allowed to speak to gays, which I why I said it in the first place. I've heard that's an easy way to get rid of people trying to convert you. Lexi told me afterward not to give the missionaries a hard time. I said that I had been polite the whole time.

Further freaky news from the sea
I have recently learned that small squid can use jet propulsion to propel themselves out of the water and into the air for as far as 60 feet. They do this to escape predators, although sometimes they get eaten by birds while in the air or fall onto the decks of boats.
This just goes further to prove my theory that cephalopods and sharks are out to get us!

The saga of the furnace
Our furnace broke. We live in Michigan where the temperature was one degree F the other night.
The first night after our furnace broke we called our friend who was able to come over the next day to take a look at it. Since it only got to 50 degrees F inside the house that night we toughed it out and slept under a lot of covers. 'Cause we're survivors! Our friend is an engineer and was able to diagnose the problem so we wouldn't get cheated but he couldn't fix it. So we had to call repair people who couldn't come the next day.
My parents paid for us to stay at the hotel that night and thank goodness they did because the house got down to just above freezing that night. The dogs did not like the hotel. We left the water running in the taps so the pipes would not freeze.
The hotel was a new environment for the dogs. This required a lot of barking. So, while I was warm and therefore able to relax my muscles I did not get a lot of sleep on account of the barking. We watched "Marley and Me" on the hotel cable, which may have given the dogs bad ideas.
The furnace is now temporarily fixed but will have to be replaced either when it next breaks or in the spring, whichever comes first. Since replacing it could be a multi-day process I'm hoping for spring. At least now I'm not freezing.

The Whovian Universe
Lexi and I finished "Doctor Who" Season 5 this week and now we're watching "The Sarah Jane Adventures" Season 2. You can really tell the latter is for kids because no one dies.
Lexi thinks the new doctor, Matt Smith, is funny looking. I think he's got a great last name. :)
I heard there is supposed to be a new "Torchwood" set in America and produced by Fox. It's supposed to have Jack and Gwynn in it. He's hoping it actually takes off as a series, unlike Fox's attempt to revive "Doctor Who" in the 1990s.

School of the Americas
Last weekend I attended my first School of the Americas protest. SOA (now called the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation or WHINSEC) is where our military teaches soldiers from Latin American countries how to torture and kill people. Graduates of SOA/WHINSEC have killed tens of thousands of people throughout Latin America. They were involved in the disappearances in Argentina and the genocide in Guatemala in the 1980s. This year was the 30th anniversary of the rape and murder three American nuns and an American lay minister in El Salvador.
Joining the protest was a way to say "not in my name" to the torture and murder.
One torture survivor spoke from the stage during the rally. He said that unlike George Bush's assertions that water boarding is not torture. The man on stage said he had survived water boarding and so he knew for sure that it's torture.
The central and climactic part of the weekend of protest is the reading of the names. All the names of known murder victims are read like a Catholic liturgy and after year name we sing "presente," which is Spanish for "present" to signify that their spirits are here with us in this witness against murder. The names rolled over me like a tidal wave; so many, many of them. I carried a sign with the picture of the church women killed 30 years ago and I put it on the fence of Ft. Benning, which had been turned into a shrine of remembrance.
I don't remember all the names because there were too many but I do remember Christina, age 9 years and Concepcion, age 3 days. I would like to know why my government teaches people to kill children. How can this possibly make the world safer or protect my freedom?
I want the killing to stop.

We need Congress to pass the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) in this lame duck session, because it sure won't happen once the Republicans get their hands on the House.
If you have not already done so this month, please contact your senators (www.senate.gov) and your rep (www.house.gov) and ask them to pressure the leadership to bring this bill to a vote and ask them to vote for it.
This is our best chance at getting employment non-discrimination for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people for a long time.

More interviews
I had an interview today at a bakery to be one of their clerks selling bread. I have another interview this Friday. It will be with the local gay paper "Between The Lines."
Since I'm on unemployment I'm required to take the first full-time job offer I get.
I'm very nervous about getting a good job and I'm also nervous about what that would mean for my current part-time job.

Following a night of short films and a video installation "Green|Red" displayed under the Manhattan Bridge, Scene:Brooklyn took over Dumbo's reRun Gastropub Theater for a special preview screening of Brandon Harris' "Redlegs," a feature following a trio of childhood friends brought together after the murder of another chum. Harris, a regular editor/critic for Filmmaker Magazine and occasional cohort of The Playlist (here he chats with the eternal New Yorker Abel Ferrara), raised the appropriate funds on Kickstarter and ventured to his stomping grounds of Cincinnati to create his debut comedy-drama.
Ohio homebodies Aaron and Wilbur meet Marco, someone they've been out of touch with for a substantial amount of time, at the train station en route to the recently deceased Ricky's funeral processions. It's revealed that Marco had abruptly quit urban life to get his hands dirty in the country, a decision that still stings those he had abandoned (namely, aside from the two buddies, his ex-girlfriend). As the three attempt to reconnect through booze, drugs, and baseball, they find themselves battling over most issues, including how to properly mourn and remember the pal so quickly taken from them. Their high emotions come to a head in the parking lot of the Great American Ball Park (the stadium for the Cincinnati Reds), where they're finally forced to evaluate what their friendships mean.
"Redlegs" is as much about directionless, confused young adults and class/race as it is about the city itself, with the filmmaker fixing a keen eye on the environment that houses his characters. But apparently setting the flick in his hometown wasn't part of the original plan. "Initially we conceived this to be in New York City, but we were having housing problems and eventually I decided it would be better in Ohio," Harris explained in during the post-screening Q&A. "The change certainly shifted things, in terms of what we could and couldn't do, the linchpin of the story… race and class weren't as much of an element before we set it in Cincinnati just because it's a town that's fraught with these issues." Still, its birth as an NY film gave it some innate qualities, with one member of the audience likening it to Martin Scorsese's gritty-city "Mean Streets."
With a light narrative thread and a general conversational nature, "Redlegs" easily fits into the micro-budget treehouse of Cassavetes obsessives, though not to its detriment — the aesthetic choice enables the filmmaker to focus on quite a number of deep, ugly moments that'd likely be overshadowed by a more intricate plot. Harris acknowledges this influence, naming "Husbands" as a template while also citing the original "Bad Lieutenant" as a jump-off point. "Those films are both important to what we were trying to do. Not just in a 'men behaving badly' kind of way, but 'Lieutenant' is about someone carrying guilt, and 'Husbands' concerns guys trying to find a way to deal with the existential dread that people of your generation will die. They definitely informed where things we going to go." You can also see some early Mike Nichols lurking within, showing the director as someone who can cull engaging, slice-of-life conversation from his actors without getting bogged down by forced dialogue.
Though firmly rooted in realism, the filmmaker hoped that the "death of a friend" aspect wouldn't be taken too literally and spoke of its other possible meanings. "I think that the loss is as much about losing a certain kind of camaraderie with people that are close to you as it is about losing a friend, or losing a certain notion of what home is," he mentioned. Given every character's reluctance to deal with all of the components of the real world (and their subsequent responsibilities), it could even be read as the loss of innocence. The trio kicks and scream throughout the movie, and while it doesn't come to a tidy conclusion, it feels apparent that they're finally ready to acknowledge that their lives are changing.
"Redlegs" opens in New York on May 25th. Trailer below.

Narda, I picked up ten bags of Schultz Plus 2 cu., on closeout at Walmart last year for 3.00 a bag. I thought that would be plenty for raising my seedlings last winter. I could of used 30 bags! This is really great stuff, except that green algae grows very fast with it. I am wondering if the moisture that the crystals hold in the soil, adds to the algae? I corrected the problem by sprinkling fine sand over the trays after seeding. This worked great! I see that Walmart cares it this year as well. I will be backing up the truck, when the close out season arrives. Larry

Our narrator, a swotty and quasi-naive young PhD student, sets out to find the object of his study, a mysterious, wild and (therefore) glamorous French writer, Paul Michel. Such decisiveness is quite out of character, but he is goaded into action by his Cambridge girlfriend, a spiky, owl- eyed Germanist with a mysteriously rich and svelte father with some surprising friends. The Germanist, a cleverly drawn licentious puritan, challenges the narrator's passion for his subject until he realises that life must take over from scholarship. Where is Paul Michel? Dead? Locked up in a mental institution? In need of rescue?
The ensuing quest takes him to Paris, where he discovers a cache of (perhaps unsent?) letters from Paul Michel to Foucault. Inspired, he travels to the provincial French town where the writer is indeed incarcerated, and persuades the doctors first to let him visit daily, then to release Michel. Through a steamy summer in Provence the growing link between the two is used by Duncker - who is refreshingly unEnglish in her relationship with things intellectual - to delve into her Big Themes: madness, sexuality, love and identity, writing and the writer's relationship with his reader. Such a list immediately makes the book sound less readable than it is: in fact, Duncker manages her brainy material with a touch so deft it is almost skittish, inserts little hooks into the heart as well as the mind, and rounds the whole lot off with a thriller-like twist.

Adipose tissue macrophages (ATMs) regulated adipose tissue inflammation is an important contributor to the pathogenesis of insulin resistance associated disorders, including type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. Chronic nutrient excess induces ATMs to undergo a distinct phenotypic switch (macrophage polarization) from anti-inflammation (M2) in lean tissues to pro-inflammation activation (M1) in obese tissues. We recently discovered, for the first time, that miR-223 is a potent regulator of diet-induced adipose tissue inflammation, which primarily acts through controlling macrophage polarization. Moreover, miR-223 is dramatically decreased in human diabetes patients, reinforcing the potential function of miR-223 in adipose tissue inflammation. However, to date, it remains unknown how miR-223 exactly regulates macrophage polarization and promote these ATMs toward M1 activation under challenges. Our preliminary studies showed that miR- 223 is markedly increased during M2 activation which can be further enhanced by a PPARgamma agonist;and loss of miR-223 in macrophages results in blunted M2 activation to PPARgamma agonist. Moreover, genomic survey predicted three PPARgamma consensus binding elements upstream of miR-223 precursor. Thus, we hypothesize that miR-223 is a potent macrophage M2 activator and a PPARgamma-miR-223 circuit is an important pathway to control ATM polarization in chronic nutrient excess induced adipose tissue inflammation and systemic insulin resistance.
Three specific aims will be carried out to address this hypothesis:
Specific Aim 1 : Determine the mechanisms of PPARgamma-miR-223 circuit in regulating macrophage polarization. We will employ macrophages with altered miR-223 levels and specific PPARgamma agonist or inhibitor to dissect in detail the functional interactions between PPARgamma and miR-223 during macrophage activation.
Specific Aim 2 : Determine the role of miR-223 in PPARgamma action against adipose tissue inflammation and insulin resistance. We will use gain- and loss-of miR-223 mouse models with PPARgamma agonists and antagonists to determine the role of miR-223 in protective effects of PPARgamma against excess nutrients induced adipose tissue inflammation and systemic insulin resistance.
Specific Aim 3 : Identify the target genes of miR-223 that are required for the PPARgamma-miR-223 pathway. To dissect the PPARgamma-miR-223 pathway, we will identify miR-223 target genes and validate their functions in regulating macrophage polarization and adipose tissue inflammation. The overall goal of this project is to determine the molecular mechanism underlying miR-223 mediated regulation of macrophage polarization and adipose tissue inflammation. Completion of this project will provide a novel microRNA-based paradigm with respect to ATM polarization. Moreover, this study will provide crucial insights for developing new therapeutic strategies in mitigating adipose tissue inflammation associated diseases using miR-223 mimetics or antagonists of miR-223 regulated target genes.
The proposed research will investigate the regulatory network involving a novel microRNA regulator, miR-223, and known master pathways, including PPARgamma, in controlling adipose tissue macrophage function and obesity-induced adipose tissue inflammation/insulin resistance. Therefore, this study will provide novel concepts for development of microRNA-based therapeutic strategies by enhancing macrophage alternative activation to prevent and treat obesity associated diseases.

Care providers risk loss of care costs - .PDF file.
During January 2014, the High Court gave a judgment in an appeal case (Aster Healthcare v Estate of Mr Mohammed Shafi) that has important implications for residential care providers. The decision was that in the circumstances of the case, the provider in question could not recover care costs from a resident's estate under section 7 of the Mental Capacity Act 2005 (MCA), which provides that the absence of a formal contract does not preclude a claim for payment from a person who lacks capacity, if the services in question are 'necessary'.
The case demonstrates how a care provider can be left significantly out of pocket, where there is a lack of understanding or clarity around who precisely is liable for care fees.
Where a local authority has placed a service user into a care home in order to meet its statutory duties, and there is no written agreement providing who is going to pay the fees, there is a high risk to the care provider. The decision underscores the point that care providers cannot rely upon section 7 MCA in seeking to claim costs from service users or their estates. Providers need to ensure that they have appropriate written agreements to meet the costs in place, which make the resident (and their estate), or a named representative, liable…

Honestly... I thought having anything other than Chocobos was unnecessary. The stuff they've added besides (the couerl, the goobue, etc) are.. eh.. acceptable.
But to have an iconic badass of a creature as a Behemoth reduced to a ridable mount... That's just ridiculous.
Way to just walk all over your game's lore. I guess they're also following in Blizzard's footsteps by turning their world's lore into a joke, as they turn everything into an amusement park feature.

Forecasting Elections from Voters' Perceptions of Candidates' Positions on Issues and Policies
Ideally, presidential elections should be decided based on how the candidates would handle issues facing the country. If so, knowledge about the voters' perception of the candidates should help to forecast election outcomes. We make two forecasts of the winner of the popular vote in the U.S. Presidential Election. One is based on voters' perceptions of how the candidates would deal with issues (problems facing the country) if elected. We show that this approach would have correctly picked the winner for the three elections from 1996 to 2004. The other is based on voters' preference for policies and their perceptions of which policies the candidates are likely to pursue. Both approaches lead to a forecast that Democrat candidate Barack Obama will win the popular vote.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
Tenants rented for 2yrs / Failure to report bathroom issues resulting in bsmt ceiling/wall water damage. Not maintaining yard per verbal agreement & damaging lawn mover. Not cleaning the SFR prior to vacating. Can I deduct from the security deposit for damages? And what are the laws pretaining to single family residences rentals in IL.
Thank you
Follow the statute. Water damage is not normal wear and tear. Lawn mower damage is not normal wear and tear.
The Illinois Security Deposit Return Act (765 ILCS 710) applies to Illinois landlords for residential property containing five units or more in an apartment complex or in a single building. This Legal Guide explains the most basic aspects of this detailed legislation.
Deposit is Tenant's money
An Illinois a landlord may not keep any part of a security deposit unless the landlord has, within 30 days from the date the tenant vacates a property, delivered an itemized statement of damages containing estimated or actual costs, including receipts (for estimated costs, the landlord must send a receipt within 30 days of the date of the letter) to the tenant.
Deposit Use
The security deposit may be used to setoff any damage done to rental property. In Illinois it is not an advance on rent.
Deposit Secure until Used
In all cases covered by the Illinois statute, while the landlord holds the security deposit, the security deposit funds remain the tenant's property.
A tenant may sue if the landlord does not follow the statute. See a lawyer to discuss the particular details of your situation to establish a plan by a strategy with appropriate trial tactics discussed. Call me if you want to retain experience counsel.
