POMONA - With the Nov. 6 Election Day quickly approaching, supporters of Measure X are gearing up to walk precincts, operate phone banks and speak to church groups and service clubs about the needs of the Pomona Public Library.
Those working on Measure X say their task has two components to it. Before they try to convince voters they should vote for the measure they must first describe the library's precarious position, said Marian Higgins, coordinator of advocacy efforts for the community-wide task force working on short- and long-term strategies in support of the library.
Many Pomona residents still don't know anything about the challenges the library faces, she said. Others think that the crisis is over.
"People don't realize that the future of the library after June 30, 2013, is unknown," Higgins said. Having the library open "is temporary if it can't get funding."
Like other cities, Pomona has been pummeled by the economic downturn and been forced to reduce staff and services.
However, in June a budget shortfall resulted in city staff presenting City Council members a budget proposal that included a year-long temporary closure of the library to reduce expenses.
Council members rejected the idea and instead asked city administrators to find a way to keep the library open. City administrators proposed shifting $400,000 from street improvements to the library's budget allowing it to say ope until the end of June 2013.
That level of funding required cutting personnel and reducing the already limited library service hours to 20 a week.
Councilwoman Paula Lantz invited the public to help brainstorm ways of helping the library prompting residents, business people and others to come forward.
The group proposed placing a parcel tax measure on the ballot and the city's library Board of Trustees recommended City Council members place a measure on the ballot.
Two-thirds approval needed
Measure X needs the approval of two-thirds of those who vote in the November election. If it passes, the measure will generate about a $1.5 million annually for library operations and services.
It will cost single family home parcel owners about $38 a year.
Residents of other cities have worked to pass measures to fund their libraries but they've had much more time to prepare and organize a campaign, Higgins said.
Pomona has little time, she said.
Aside from the short campaign time, there is the challenge of getting two-thirds of voters to vote yes for Measure X, Higgins said.
Michael Coleman, an expert in local government finance, said that in the last year or two there has been a slight decrease in the measures on ballots around the state seeking approval of parcel taxes, bond measures or fee increases.
The decrease may be related to local governments being concerned that voters won't approve measures, so some simply won't try to put any before voters.
Of those measures that have made it to the ballot and required a simple majority of voters, about two-thirds have passed, Coleman said.
In the case of special taxes, which require two-thirds of the vote to pass, about half have passed, he said.
A key factor in the approval of measures is how cities have addressed the subject and how well they've explained their financial situations going back to the start of the budget process, Coleman said.
"If the community has confidence in the local government and the transparency of the city's" budget development process, voters are most likely to vote in support of a measure, Coleman said.
The decision to pursue and approve a tax for a service such as the library is one that should be left to voters, said Kris Vosburgh, executive director of the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association.
"We certainly support putting it on the ballot," he said.
If voters think their elected officials have made a whole-hearted effort to provide for the needed services they will support ballot measures, Vosburgh said.
Services such as libraries, police and fire protection are ones that residents value, he said.
The may consider other services important, such as water or sewer services, "but they don't think about it a whole lot because they don't see it," Vosburgh said.
A service such as the library is valued by those who use it as well as those who don't because they know its a source of knowledge that is available for people of all ages.
City funding limited
However many cities are facing cuts to services because governments are facing the same situation residents face.
"They have less because we have less," Vosburgh said.
Cities' economic woes can often be traced back to the lack of fiscal prudence of leaders combined with a poor economic climate, he said.
If voters are unhappy with poor fiscal decisions of elected officials in the past then city leaders can expect a backlash, Vosburgh said.
Having voters come out in support of a measure helps.
"It suggests they are convinced this is a necessity," Coleman said.
Residents like Higgins say the measure is necessary.
"We really feel we really, really do need passage of the measure," she said.
Finding a way to provide a steady source of funding for the library is something that has drawn people of diverse political viewpoints together, Higgins said.
"We're a totally nonpartisan group," she said.
And they have a common goal.
"We all want to save our library," Higgins said.
No ballot argument against it
Councilwoman Paula Lantz said at this point the focus of the task force is ensuring the ballot measure passes.
No ballot argument against Measure X exists, Lantz said.
"The library is non-controversial, and people really believe in the library," she said.
Just the same, in order for the measure to pass those working toward its passage will have to invest a great deal of effort.
Things recently became more challenging for supporters of the measure after hearing that members of the board of directors of the Citrus Valley Association of Realtors planned on discussing the measure in a meeting.
The association in general is opposed to parcel taxes, said Bill Ruh, the association's government affairs director.
"It's not the issue, it's the funding mechanism," he said.
From the association's perspective, a parcel tax is unequitable.
"It's asking property owners to pay for a societal good," Rue said. "If something is worth saving then it's worth sharing the cost."
A parcel tax doesn't provide property owners who have real estate in the city but who live elsewhere an opportunity to cast a vote in the matter, he said.
Instead of a parcel tax other options could have been pursued including increasing the city's sales tax, having a mail ballot that would have given all property owners a chance to vote on the matter or exploring joining the Los Angeles County library system, he said.
"I truly believe they view the parcel tax as an issue of expedience and didn't think of fairness," Rue said.
Supporters of the measure such as Higgins said the majority of those working to support the measure are property owners, in some instance of more than one property, and they are concerned closing the city's one library will hurt property values.
Having a functioning library "gives us value," she said.
Other options may have existed and if the association had others they could have been voiced earlier at a public forum such as a City Council meeting, Higgins said, but this is the option that's available and it's one that can generate a steady source of revenue to fund the library.
"At this point, it's our only option," she said.
The association's stand on parcel taxes is something supporters of the measure will analyze in the coming days.
Of particular concern is that the association could choose to invest money into opposing the measure.
Ruh said recently if the association leadership chooses to oppose the measure it doesn't have to go public with its decision.
A ballot crowded with measures
Resident John Clifford is among those working in support of the measure.
"There seems to be some good support from the community," he said.
However, the presence of multiple local and state ballot measures will present a difficult hurdle in getting Measure X approved, Clifford said.
He worries people will vote against the measure because they don't want any tax increases.
If that happens "I truly see the potential for closing the doors of the library," Clifford said.
That is a hurdle, Higgins said.
"Yeah it is an increase" but the parcel tax "is a small amount to pay for a huge service," she said.
Clifford is hopeful.
"What we do have going for us is (that) people like libraries," he said.
A library is something people expect cities to have and the prospect of losing their own does provide some incentive to help generate revenue to save it, he said.
Aside from working in support of Measure X Clifford is chairman of the recently revived nonprofit Pomona Public Library Foundation.
The foundation board of directors has taken a position that it will support the efforts of those working for the benefit of the library but it will focus its energy on three key areas, Clifford said.
First the Foundation would like to raise funds to provide additional library services, he said.
Second, if the measure passes there will be a gap in library funding. The gap will span from July 2013 to January 2014.
The gap will be the result of a delay in the time it takes to start billing property owners and the time tax revenue starts coming in to the city, he said.
Third, the foundation must develop a plan to fund the library should the parcel tax fail and that would require raising somewhere between $700,000 and $1 million for 20 hours of service a week, he said.
"We are looking at what we can do to ensure the library stays open," Clifford said.

Do own primary residence now. - MND Q&A 2014-05-25T09:23:40Z tag:5381b69cd40cb2225301dcdb 2014-05-25T09:23:40Z 2014-05-25T09:23:40Z Purchasing a home after previous short sale question. Do own primary residence now.
I was interested in opinions on my situation and any challenges I might face when shopping for a new home (and or tips). Here is my scenario.

We live in a home we purchased in 2009 in TX. We purchased this home after being transferred from Phoenix where we owned a home that was severely underwater at time of transfer. We hung in as long as we could, renting the Phoenix home for $1000 less per month than cost to maintain. We eventually short sold the property in Mar 2011. We had two loans (first and second) that report on our credit reports as settled for less than full value. Both loans report 120+ days delinquent due to lender refusing to consider our short sale until we were 90 days past due. It took an additional 60 days to navigate the process once the lender began working with us. Credit scores were 803 and 825 pre-shortsale.

Fast-forward to now: We have not been late on any other payment ever. This includes 5 years of on time payments for current home. Credit scores have crept back up to 705 and 733. We carry $0 in credit card debt (pay in full each month). We have two car loans that total $1150 per month, this amount is covered by my companies monthly car allowance.

We are looking to purchase a new home after selling our current home. With the sale of our home and a bit of additional savings, we plan to put down $200,000. We hope to purchase the new home for $580,000. We are looking to take on a 15 year mortgage.

Although I know there is much more information needed to complete the equation, I'm just looking for general opinion on my likelihood of approval and any tips to improve my chances.

Hello,

So, $580,000 price putting $200,00 down would be a $380,000 loan amount at a 65% loan to purchase price. $380k loan amount is ok for conventional financing and the wait time in the scenario above would be 2 years provided you put at least 20% down.

There is an FHA option that has no waiting period, if you can prove 1.)no late payments on any mortgage and consumer debts within the 12 months period preceding the short sale. 2.) you are not taking advantage of a declining market condition.
 Steven Foose tag:qna.mortgagenewsdaily.com,2005:Answer/53890c84d40cb253b701009f 2014-05-30T22:56:04Z 2014-05-30T22:56:04Z answer by Dana Goodman for Purchasing a home after previous short sale question. Do own primary residence now.
You might also consider a USDA loan. Standard guidelines for shortsale:

3 year waiting period from the date it was completed.

Less than 3 years may be considered with acceptable extenuating circumstances, such as: o Loss of Job o Delay or reduction in government benefits o Increased expenses due to illness Circumstances surrounding the adverse information must have been temporary in nature and beyond the Borrowers control. Reoccurrence must be highly unlikely. Or the adverse action or delinquency was the result of a refusal to make full payments because of the defective goods of services or as a result of some other justifiable disputed relating to the goods or services purchased and/or contracted for.

Also, my Bank will do a purchase or refinance loan 1 day out of foreclosure or short sale in any of theses states: AZ, CA, DC, FL , HI, IL, MD, MT, NV, NY, NC, NJ, OR, SC, VA, WA..but not Texas :( Please contact me if I can be of service.

You'd want to check the max FHA loan size for the county you're looking in, as they vary and it could be as low as 271,000. In addition, both the upfront and monthly MIP (mortgage insurance premiums) would still apply, even with 20% down, and they are quite steep. From what you've said, however, your previous short sale should be a non issue, given your down payment. Glad to help if you'd like, I write loans nationally. Thanks, Ted

This example implements a GMail-like mail composer and shows among other things how to upload files asynchronously, showing a cross-browser upload progress bar and with support for multiple files.
- The ContactSuggestions class provides auto-completion of the addressees in the To: Cc: and Bcc: fields. The widget derives from WSuggestionPopup.
- The AttachmentEdit widget uses a WFileUpload to asynchronously upload files. The upload progress bar will work even in IE6.
- The Option and OptionList classes show how stateless slots, a trick to handle events client-side but implement them still in C++, may be used even when the behaviour is not entirely stateless. In this case, the hiding of an Option affects neighboring visible options: an option needs a separator only if there is a neighbouring option. By invalidating the stateless slot implementations when state has changed, we can still use a stateless slot implementation and enjoy client-side event handling performance!

Jamie - from Sparkman, AR
The most important tip is to follow your recipe exactly – carefully measuring all ingredients, making sure your oven temperature is correct, etc. If you are still getting cracking a number of things can cause the cheesecake to crack.
• It may be too dry in your oven. If your recipe doesn't already call for this, place a pan of hot water on the oven rack below your springform pan as the cheesecake bakes.
• Your cheesecake may be cooling too quickly. Again, if your recipe doesn't already call for this, when the cheesecake is "done", turn off the oven, crack the door slightly, and let the cheesecake cool slowly in the warm oven for about one hour. Remove the cake from the oven and set it on a counter to cool to room temperature. Then, you can refrigerate for several hours.
• You may be baking your cheesecake too long. Bake it 15 minutes less than you have been, then follow the slow cooling instructions above.
• Finally, if you still get cracking (and even the experts do sometimes!), top the cake with a chocolate ganache, fruit syrup, cut-up fruit, etc. No one will notice the cracks!

My friend (who likes him) and I had this conversation:
Me: Gah! Why do I bother to find proof that Justin Bieber is gay?! It's like I'm bothered by him, right? I'm not a fan of him, so why bother?!
Friend: You're right! You don't like him, so why bother?
Me: Yeah! I'm gonna stop looking for proof now. You can go on with your lives liking him and I'm gonna go on with my life thinking about who I like!

I hope he dies.

to tell you the truth i like his catchy songs
but I NEVER find him handsome...
i don't really care about it although my friend screams his name out of my ear
don't care....
wow well, i like his songs .. that's that
The cruelest lies are often told in silence..
Maybe he'd be better if his voice actually broke.
Never coming back...
one word : stupid...
ok, maybe he has a talent singing songs for babies like twincle twincle little star -.-
livin' la vida loca ;)
never heard "his" music dont plan to. all i know is that when i see "him" on the cover of magazines while food shopping i suddenly want to hurt everyone born after 1990. he reminds me of the token frooty kid who hung out with all the popular girls at my high school. just another disney style commodity being sold to the newest lamest generation imo.
I sort of like Justin Bieber, I don't know why. He just seems like a talented, precocious kid. Also, he was quite good on SNL last weekend, his shout-out to Tina Fey at the end of his second song was kind of endearing and made me like him just a little bit more.
Sliding in with mayhem at my side.

Friday, July 16 2010 - Legal Response to 9/11
Fox legal analyst: Bush should have been indicted
By David Edwards
Fox News' senior judicial analyst made some surprising remarks Saturday that may go against the grain at his conservative network.
In a interview with Ralph Nader on C-SPAN's Book TV to promote his book Lies the Government Told You, Judge Andrew Napolitano said that President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney should have been indicted for "torturing, for spying, for arresting without warrant."
The judge believes that it is a fallacy to say that the US treats suspects as innocent until proven guilty. "The government acts as if a defendant is guilty merely on the basis of an accusation," said Napolitano.
Nader was curious about how this applied to the Bush administration. "What about the more serious violations of habeas corpus," wondered Nader. "You know after 9/11 Bush rounded up thousands of them, Americans, many of them Muslim Americans or Arabic Americans and they were thrown in jail without charges. They didn't have lawyers. Some of them were pretty mistreated in New York City. You know they were all released eventually."
"Well that is so obviously a violation of the natural law, the natural right to be brought before a neutral arbiter within moments of the government taking your freedom away from you," answered Napolitano.
"So what President Bush did with the suspension of habeas corpus, with the whole concept of Guantanamo Bay, with the whole idea that he could avoid and evade federal laws, treaties, federal judges and the Constitution was blatantly unconstitutional and is some cases criminal," he continued.
"What should be the sanctions [for Bush and Cheney]?" asked Nader.
"They should have been indicted. They absolutely should have been indicted for torturing, for spying, for arresting without warrant," said Napolitano.
"I'd like to say they should be indicted for lying but believe it or not, unless you're under oath, lying is not a crime. At least not an indictable crime. It's a moral crime," he said.
This isn't the first time that Napolitano's comments have veered away from the standard talking points at Fox News. He has predicted that Arizona's controversial immigration law will be blocked by the court. Napolitano also said Arizona's governor would "bankrupt the Republican Party" fighting for the law.
The liberal blog Crooks and Liars has more details on the Nader/Napolitano interview.

Semi-Automatic Espresso Machines
Be your own barista! Semi-automatic espresso machines offer just the right amount of control over how your espresso is made at home. While they may look different, the basic functionality of a semi-automatic espresso machine includes a boiler, a portafilter and a switch or lever to perform the extraction. You'll still grind and tamp your espresso (or insert an espresso pod), start the extraction and then steam or froth your milk as necessary. Semi-automatic espresso machines fall into two different types:
- Manual Control: On these semi-automatic espresso machines, the shot is initiated and you stop it once you decide the extraction is complete, usually in 20-30 seconds. This offers real-time control over the length of your extractions
- Programmable Doses: These semi-automatic espresso machines allow you to program the extraction to stop after a specific amount of time.

Four characters from the new production of The Mystery of a Hansom Cab that will screen on ABC on 28 October.

"Whereas, on Friday, the 27th day of July, the body of a man, name unknown, was found in a hansom cab. AND WHEREAS, at an inquest held at St. Kilda, on the 30th day of July, a verdict of wilful murder, against some person unknown, was brought in by the jury. The deceased is of medium height, with a dark complexion, dark hair, clean shaved, has a mole on the left temple, and was dressed in evening dress. Notice is hereby given that a reward of 100 pounds will be paid by the Government for such information as will lead to the conviction of the murderer, who is presumed to be a man who entered the hansom cab with the deceased at the corner of Collins and Russell Streets, on the morning of the 27th day of July."
So begins Chapter III of The Mystery of a Hansom Cab, a very early detective novel set in Melbourne. Written by English-born and NZ-raised Fergus Hume, this 1886 tale of mystery and murder in the young colonial city became an unexpected international smash. On Sunday 28 October at 8:30 PM, a telemovie based on the novel will screen on ABC TV.

Filmed on location around the city, and steered carefully by the production designer Otello Stolfo, 1880s 'Marvellous Melbourne' has been meticulously recreated by a talented team of researchers, builders and other craftspeople. The props and the costumes were made and sourced with a keen eye to authentic period detail. The cream of the Australian acting community, including John Waters, Marco Chiappi, Shane Jacobson, Jessica De Gouw, Oliver Ackland, Chelsie Preston, Felix Williamson and Helen Morse, bring the story to life, through the faithful script adaptation by Glen Dolman, directed by Shawn Seet, produced by Margot McDonald and executive producer Ewan Burnett. The Mystery of a Hansom Cab was developed and produced with the assistance of Film Victoria.
Costumes, jewellery, costume drawings and other documentation from this telemovie have just been acquired by the museum from the production company, Burberry Entertainment. Curator Michael Reason explains the significance of the costumes: "This acquisition represents television production in Melbourne, particularly how the city's history has been presented, and it's also a way for us to record literary Melbourne. The costumes were all locally made so they represent bespoke tailoring in the city and even the Phillips Shirts factory which has operated for 60 years. It is an honour to preserve these wonderful costumes, created by costume designer Wendy Cork and costume supervisor Christiana Plitzo, as very few items of Australian film and television wardrobe have survived, particularly in museums."

The Mystery of a Hansom Cab predates Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes, who first appeared in print in 1887. Part of its appeal in the US and UK was its location in a faraway and mysterious location: a developing Melbourne that was only five decades old. "The book was true to the city and includes places like the Melbourne Club, St Kilda and Little Bourke St," says Michael. "It's an intriguing story of people reinventing themselves by coming to Melbourne and leaving behind their past." The characters of The Mystery of a Hansom Cab cover the class spectrum of Melbourne colonial society, from the well-to-do to residents of the young city's notorious slums.
Hansom cab made by Simmons & Sons, South Yarra, 1880s. Hansom cabs were horse-drawn vehicles for hire, like a Victorian-era taxi. They were fast, light and agile. The driver sat at the rear and could control the doors to prevent passengers from fleeing without paying their fare. (ST 029057)Source: Museum Victoria
As for its author Hume, sadly he never achieved his lifelong dream of becoming a playwright. Having sold the rights to The Mystery of a Hansom Cab for 50 pounds, he never profited from its phenomenal success, and his subsequent 100+ novels and short stories were never particularly popular and he died in relative obscurity in England in 1932.

The University of Louisiana System has a new president in Sandra K. Woodley, an administrator in the University of Texas system.
The UL Board of Supervisors picked Woodley without opposition Friday after 45 minutes of public questioning and another hour of closed-door discussions.
"This is an incredible opportunity," Woodley told the board right after her selection. "I won't let you down."
The details of her contract have not yet been finalized.
As head of the UL System, Woodley will be responsible for 92,000 students enrolled in nine schools including the University of New Orleans, Southeastern Louisiana University in Hammond, the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, McNeese State University in Lake Charles and Louisiana Tech University in Ruston.
She was one of three candidates recommended by the Washington, D.C.-based R.H. Perry and Associates firm, and the only candidate invited for an in-person interview with the UL board.
During the public portion of her interview, Woodley, 49, repeatedly came back to the theme of institutions adapting to the needs of their students, or "having a heart."
She explained that she "made a lot of wrong decisions" as a young woman finding herself married at age 18, and with two children when she was in her 20s. Woodley added that she owes part of her current position to financial aid and the "heart" of instructors who helped her earn her undergraduate degree over the course of 10 years.
"Nobody in my family went to college," Woodley said. "I didn't expect to go to college, but because of teacher caring, I was able to get to the next level."
As a candidate singled out for her financial prowess, Woodley on Friday, addressed state budget cuts. State public colleges and universities have been cut by more than $425 million over the past four years as Gov. Bobby Jindal and lawmakers worked to balance state budgets.
Past and current presidents of Louisiana's four public college systems have been unanimous in their expectations that the state isn't finished cutting money from higher education.
Woodley said colleges need to accept the reality of declining state funding and work to funnel existing revenue toward the highest priorities.
"I've always been interested in how money matters ... how you get the most out of what you have," Woodley said. "It's not a science set in stone."
She added that colleges need to get out of the habit of being "afraid of the data."
Institutions need to make a concerted effort to compare themselves to universities with similar programs and research goals to get an accurate view of how they measure up, she said.
"When you do that, you start to see patterns," Woodley said. "You look for pockets of excellence nationally. You see how institutions are able to achieve excellence with similar or even lower funds. Great universities aren't afraid."
Woodley said she is on board with the current trend of universities offering growing numbers of online courses to increase revenue, but she added that the emphasis has to be on ensuring the quality of programs rather than the number of students who enroll.
She also said tuition has to be addressed in a way that doesn't price students out of the public university system.
Woodley said it's important that each institution has a long-term vision and a plan that puts them on the right track to meet their far-off objectives.
Woodley is expected to leave her job as vice chancellor for strategic initiatives at the University of Texas to be at her new position in Baton Rouge by Jan. 1.
Woodley earned undergraduate and graduate degrees in business administration from Auburn University in Montgomery, Ala., before earning a doctorate in business administration management from Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
Before joining the UT System, Woodley worked as a strategic planner and chief financial officer for the Arizona Board of Regents; vice president of finance, planning and performance for the Kentucky council on postsecondary education; and as the associate executive director of the Alabama Commission on Higher Education.
Woodley succeeds Randy Moffett, who retired Sept. 15 after a 41-year career in higher education, including four years at the top of Louisiana's largest college and university system.

For some scholars in the humanities and social sciences, old age is a period of abiding productivity. Upon reaching his retirement, Robert N. Bellah, the leading sociologist of religion of the last decades and one of the United States' most influential public intellectuals, trusted this would be the case, so he outlined the project of a global history of religion from its beginnings until the present.
In 2011, Bellah published Religion in Human Evolution, which spans from the rituals of hunters and gatherers to the cults and myths of archaic states to the "axial age." This concept was advanced by the philosopher Karl Jaspers to capture the widely held assumption that the great religious and philosophical traditions that the world draws on to this day have their roots in innovations that took place around the middle of the first millennium BCE in the Jewish, Greek, Chinese and Indian civilizations.

Who would have thunk it? No one in their right mind would ever dream of the scenario that transpired at the HSBC Arena in Buffalo on a warm April Saturday afternoon. EIGHT TO NOTHING! "What are you on drugs," would have been the question shot back at anyone predicting such an outlandish score. But 8-0 was the final score of the finale in the opening round between the Buffalo Sabres and the Philadelphia Flyers. No, this is not a joke!

While Sony isn't exactly flavour of the month with users of its PlayStation Network (PSN) at the moment, following last month's cyber attack, it is still hoping enough online gamers will be happy to stump up $100 for its official PS3 Wireless Stereo Headset.
Sony has announced the official headset in the US saying it will be available in September for $99.99 and while there is no official word regarding release and pricing in other regions, we hope to see the headset on this side of the Atlantic at around the same time. The standout feature of the headset is the 7.1 channel virtual surround sound, which will work best with games such as Gran Turismo and Killone which are designed for surround sound audio. Sony says the Wireless Stereo Headset lets you hear all the minor in-game audio clues clearly, "whether you are in a firefight in a first-person shooter game or racing for the checkered flag."
Connecting the wireless headset will be via a bundled USB Wireless Adapter. Controls on the headset itself will include volume controls as well as a microphone mute button which have been designed to be easily located while playing. On-screen headset status updates will let you know how much battery you have left and will give you additional sound controls. The microphone is retractable, meaning it won't get in your way while you're listening to music or playing on your own.
The headset does look pretty nice and in keeping with Sony's design ethos so hopefully it will be coming to the UK in September - though those hoping one of these may be part of the "Welcome Back" package will probably be disappointed.

GSA Issues Solicitation for Next Generation of Government Card Services. Industry - Agency Partnership Seeks to Use Emerging Technologies to Streamline, Simplify Procurement and Financial Management Services
September 12, 1997
Contact: Hap Connors
(202) 501-1231
WASHINGTON, DC - The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) announced today its solicitation for the next generation of government-wide fleet, travel and purchase card services. These contracts will provide government agencies with a wide array of options for streamlining over $6 billion in annual procurement and financial systems expenditures.
GSA's Federal Supply Service sought both industry and federal agency input in developing the solicitation, which seeks to incorporate electronic commerce and emerging technologies such as integrated circuit chip capabilities used in "smart cards." As the government continues to automate financial transactions to simplify procedures and save on administrative and other costs, "these contracts will provide the necessary tools to meet the challenges of the 21st century," said GSA Administrator David J. Barram.
In addition to traditional card-based services available under the government's current contracts with Rocky Mountain BankCard System, American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. and Wright Express Corporation, the government is soliciting features such as smart cards, enhanced transaction data and enriched financial management information. The initial contract period, which begins November 30, 1998, is for five years, with an additional option of five years.
This is the single largest procurement for the government's card-based services. Currently, there are over 2 million cards being used to purchase more than $6 billion for travel, fleet and purchase services. The solicitation has generated serious interest since it was initially announced last year, and GSA has actively partnered with industry and federal agencies by hosting focus groups, forums and soliciting comments.
Building on this partnership, GSA will hold a pre-proposal conference for industry representatives on September 23 in Washington, DC. For more information and to register for the conference, contact Arlene Fitzpatrick at (703) 305-6572 or Rosemarie Dunn at (703) 305-4191. The deadline for submission of proposals is October 28, 1997. The solicitation is available on the Internet at http://pub.fss.gsa.gov/fm/future.

It's Earth Day on 22 April 2012 and the Earth Day Network is seeking a billion pledges for 'acts of green' – individuals and organisations to commit to an act or activity, large or small, to contribute to conservation and environmental awareness.
One of the museum's customer service staff, Ella, is passionate about protecting the Southern Cassowary (Casuarius casuarius johnsonii). She's inspired MV Blog's act of green: to highlight this amazing flightless bird and the efforts to conserve its Queensland rainforest habitat. The species is listed as endangered in Queensland, and vulnerable on the IUCN Redlist.

The Southern Cassowary in the Wild exhibition has been in the museum's collection for over 100 years. Our records note that it was collected on 26 March 1885 in Queensland by an unknown collector and that we acquired it in 1887 from the Acclimitization Society of Victoria. In the 1880s, cassowaries were far more common; an estimated 1000 individuals are all that are left in the wild today.

The name cassowary stems from a Malay word meaning needle, after the bird's the needle-like wing feathers. With its brilliant-coloured neck and glossy black plumage, the Southern Cassowary is Australia's heaviest bird. Its large body is fuelled by the fruits of over 200 species of rainforest trees and it has an important ecological role in spreading seeds. It's estimated that 70-100 plant species will only germinate once their seeds have travelled through the gut of a cassowary.
As humans have cleared Queensland forests for timber, agriculture and housing developments, we have removed and fragmented the birds' habitat. Fewer trees mean less food for cassowaries. The birds roam between forest patches that are now criss-crossed by roads and many are killed by cars each year. Domestic dogs are another cause of cassowary population decline. In 2011, Cyclone Yasi hit the Far North Queensland coast and severely damaged the remaining habitat occupied by a cassowary population at Mission Beach.
Preserving and regenerating suitable habitat is critical for the survival of this species. Rainforest Rescue is an organisation that purchases land in the Daintree River valley to turn into permanent conservation reserves. They also reconnect remnant forest patches by revegetating cleared land between them, forming continuous tracts of habitat full of cassowary food plants. Since 2007, Rainforest Rescue has planted over 26,000 native plants in the Daintree. It is a very long-term project because these plantings take many years to mature. Their hope is that one day the fruits of those trees will fill the bellies of a stable and thriving cassowary population.

She details the time Biggs purposefully hit on her friend, Simone, to determine her loyalty in "Chicks Before Dicks."
The next thing I knew Biggs was holding meetings with black troops behind the barracks, and proving a skilled organizer.
Biggs informed me in a serious confidential tone we had serious racial problems, but he thought he could handle them.
"[Biggs] was concerned and upset that I was somehow engaging in political activity," says Sisley.
She was soon in bed, and as comfortable as Mrs. Biggs could make her.
Higgs, Biggs, and Blatherwick had evidently been bribed; for would you believe it?
Mrs. Biggs and Peter were in the house by this time, and heard what Eloise was saying.
Messrs. Biggs and Thatcher were really distressed and combative.
Bim asked of Mr. Biggs, as he was leaving the door with Ann.
c.1300, northern England dialect, "powerful, strong," of obscure origin, possibly from a Scandinavian source (cf. Norwegian dialectal bugge "great man"). Old English used micel in many of the same senses. Meaning "of great size" is late 14c.; that of "grown up" is attested from 1550s. Sense of "important" is from 1570s. Meaning "generous" is U.S. colloquial by 1913.
Big band as a musical style is from 1926. Slang big head "conceit" is first recorded 1850. Big business "large commercial firms collectively" is 1905; big house "penitentiary" is U.S. underworld slang first attested 1915 (in London, "a workhouse," 1851). In financial journalism, big ticket items so called from 1956. Big lie is from Hitler's grosse Lüge.

Lee Brice showing off 'fun' side with new single
Listen to Lee Brice on iHeartRadio
Lee Brice is changing things up with his next single. After releasing a couple of more serious ballads, the country singer is moving forward with "Parking Lot Party." But Lee says the song shouldn't come as much of a surprise to his fans.
Brice adds that it's a great time to launch the track. He explains that a spring release will give "Parking Lot Party" the chance to build momentum as a "fun summer song," and eventually peak in the fall "when all the people are taligating for football."
Lee adds that he's looking forward to performing the song in his opening sets on Brad Paisley's tour, which begins tonight in Maryland Heights, Missouri. "Parking Lot Party" is the fourth single from Lee's 2012 album, Hard 2 Love.

Santa Sugar Cookies
1 cup margarine, softened*
1 1/4 cups sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup sour cream
4 cups flour
Mix margarine, eggs, and sugar until well blended. Add baking powder, vanilla, baking soda, salt, and sour cream and stir well. Add flour and gently combine. If too sticky, add just a little more flour and refrigerate for about 30 minutes. Roll out dough on a floured surface and cut with a circle cookie cutter (I used a 2 3/4 in diameter circle cookie cutter). Bake at 350 degrees for about 9 minutes (you don't want to overcook them!). Makes about 4 dozen cookies.
*You can use butter, but the margarine makes them more soft and fluffy. The butter tends to make a flatter cookie.
Now to make the cookies look like Santa . . .
1/2 cup (1 stick) margarine or butter, melted
3 tablespoons shortening
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 – 3 cups powdered sugar (depending on how thick you like it)
1 Tablespoon milk
Combine all ingredients and mix well. If it's too thin, add more powdered sugar and if it's too thick, add a little more milk.
Santa Decorations:
Red sugar crystals (red Santa hat)
Chocolate chips (eyes)
Cinnamon Red Hots candies (nose)
Mini marshmallows (pom pom for hat)
shredded coconut (beard)
Frost the cookie and immediately after, sprinkle the top third of the cookie with red sugar crystals (we held the edge of a little bowl to cover the rest of the cookie while we sprinkled the crystals on and it gave the hat a rounded edge). Next, sprinkle the bottom third of the cookie with coconut (and come a little up each edge to meet the hat) to make Santa's beard. If your frosting dried quickly, you can put a drop of water on your finger and spread it on the frosting- the coconut should stick perfectly after that. Place a marshmallow on the end of the hat, the chocolate chips for the eyes, and the red hot for Santa's nose.

Modeling and Simulation
How can you help students see the invisible?
We've been doing it for over twenty years.
Science learning would be so much easier if students had superpowers. After all, many things students need to learn are abstract, invisible or just plain too small to see.
We're sorry to say we haven't perfected x-ray vision (yet). But the power of computational models enables students to see and manipulate the unobservable with just a touch or click. Students can make time slow down, repeat or run backwards at will.
Better yet, models give students the power to conduct experiments on unreachable worlds. They can peer into the details of chemical reactions. Manipulate the unseeable world of genes and DNA. Or compress centuries into seconds to unlock evolution's gradual mysteries. Models and simulations hold unprecedented ability to help students learn.
We've been researching the power of models and simulations for a decade and a half. Our research explores questions such as
- How can gaining "molecular literacy" through models help students learn across all science subjects?
- How can well designed models help make complex topics understandable?
- How can models and simulations make concepts accessible at earlier grades?
We're continuing important research and development on models and simulations every day, actively developing projects that can help your students
- Learn molecular concepts through digital inquiry
- Understand and connect ideas in genetics and evolution
- Manipulate virtual environments to understand climate change
- Consult simulations in the design process to optimize a solar house
- And much, much more…
But don't just take our word for it.

Stedman, ML. The Light Between Oceans
After returning from the frontlines of World War I, Tom Sherbourne looks forward to his new career as a lighthouse keeper on the isolated western shores of Australia: isolated, regimented and alone. But when he meets the beautiful Isabel and is surprised how she is able to draw him out of his hard shell, Tom begins to imagine a fuller life for himself. While at first the couple enjoys having their own personal piece of paradise out on Janus Rock, Isabel becomes more and more depressed after she is unable to have children. Hours after burying her latest stillborn baby, a boat washes ashore carrying a dead man and a crying baby girl, perfectly healthy. Isabel quickly latches on to the idea of raising her as their own, as a replacement for the son they had just lost. In order to satisfy his wife's wild need, Tom agrees, despite his strong doubts and occupational duty.
Three years pass and as Lucy grows, Tom begins to allow the little girl into his heart and his family is content living their simple life at the lighthouse. However, on a visit to the mainland, the couple learns a disturbing story, one of a sad young widow who lost her husband and baby girl at sea over three years ago. Both Tom and Isabel instantly know that the baby is their own Lucy. What follows is an engrossing and gripping tale of a couple torn between doing the right thing and holding on to their desperate dream of a family. Stedman explores the delicate emotions of his characters against the backdrop of a harsh physical environment, creating a truly beautiful novel. A unique story not to be missed.

Right-Wing Media Try To Discredit Cain Accuser With Lame Obama Administration Link
In continuing to defend [1] Herman Cain, the right-wing media have tried to connect one of Cain's accusers to the Obama administration. The Drudge Report said that the woman in question, Karen Kraushaar, "works in the Obama administration," while The Blaze said she "works for the Obama administration." However, Kraushaar also held positions in the federal government during both the Bush and Clinton administrations.
The Drudge Report [2]:
The Blaze [3]:
According to the story [4] from The Daily that first named her publicly, Kraushaar has served in several government agencies:
Karen Kraushaar currently serves as a communications director at the Inspector General's Office of the Treasury Department, a position she has held since last year.
After the settlement, Kraushaar served as a spokeswoman for the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service, the predecessor of Immigration and Customs Enforcement. She was a chief spokeswoman during one of the agency's most controversial immigration cases -- the custody battle over Elian Gonzalez, a Cuban boy rescued at sea who was then held by Florida relatives against the will of his father in Cuba. The boy was eventually returned to his dad.
In 2003, Kraushaar was a communications specialist for the Tax Advocate Service, an independent arm within the Internal Revenue Service that helps impoverished taxpayers.
In addition, the head of the agency Kraushaar reportedly works for now, the Treasury Department inspector general's office, is a Bush appointee [5].
