Luce Foundation Center for American Art
Folk Art: Folk Painting: Adam and Eve Leave Eden
John William ("Uncle Jack") Dey
(born Phoebus, VA 1912 -- died Richmond, VA 1978)
"When I'm finished with a painting . . . I go over the whole thing with a magnifying glass to see if anything's wrong. Sometimes a picture just doesn't look like it's level, and then I have to put something on to anchor it---something like a cow or a rabbit." John William Dey, 1975, quoted in "Life and Legend: Folk Paintings of 'Uncle Jack' Dey," Chris Gregson, Meadow Farm Museum/Crump Park, 1986
John William Dey grew up in Richmond, Virginia, but traveled to Maine as a young man to work as a trapper and logger. In the mid-1930s he returned to Richmond, where he eventually joined the police force. He was "on the beat" for almost thirteen years and earned the nickname "Uncle Jack" from the neighborhood children, whose toys and bicycles he often fixed (Chuck and Jan Rosenak, Museum of American Folk Art Encyclopedia, 1990). He started to paint after retiring from the police, using model airplane paint to create images inspired by childhood adventures, religion, and imagined exotic landscapes.

NFL Draft > 2010 Prospects > OLB > Rico McCoy
Rico McCoy Scouting Report
|Tennessee Volunteers
|Jersey Number:
|Height & Weight:
|6'1 - 220 lbs.
2010 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report:
Rico McCoy, OLB, Tennessee
As a sophomore, McCoy missed Tennessee's bowl game due to academic ineligibility. Since then, however, the linebacker has said and done all the right things and it has paid off in his performance both on and off the field. He finished with 87 total tackles in 2008 and was named a Second Team All-SEC player by both the media and the SEC's coaches. McCoy was even better in his final season in Knoxville, recording 117 total tackles--32 more than any other Volunteer defender. Again he earned Second-Team conference honors. Whether or not the success translates to the next level, however, appears to be questionable. McCoy stands at just 6'1' and 220 pounds, far from ideal for a linebacker. He needs to put on some serious pounds and muscle if he wants to be a starter -- and a Day 1 draft pick -- in the NFL. McCoy does, however, have impressive speed to make up for his relative lack of size. He has been clocked as fast as 4.52 in the 40-yard dash, although sometimes he is even too fast and too intense (often overrunning plays). McCoy, who redshirted in 2005, did well to return to school for a senior campaign rather than turning pro last year. Still, his draft stock did not see major improvement and it won't until he bulks up. McCoy has a chance to sneak into Day 1 based on his potential, but for now it looks like he will probably go off the board sometime on Day 2 of the 2010 draft.

Home > About Us > Why Harvard Kennedy School?
Every generation faces the opportunity and responsibility to meet the challenges of its era. The greatest problems confronting our world today – from nuclear proliferation to climate change and entrenched poverty – are complex, interrelated and urgent. At Harvard Kennedy School, we ask what we can do to solve them.
Today's problems require novel approaches and non-traditional alliances that bring together leaders from government, civil society and business. That's why we bring a multidisciplinary approach to advancing the public interest.
Over the last 75 years, the Kennedy School has become the global leader in educating and empowering individuals committed to advancing the public interest. Our teachers are renowned scholars and accomplished practitioners who are actively engaged in the affairs of the world. Our students are legislators, nonprofit executives, social entrepreneurs, advocates and aspiring leaders – from every age group and every corner of the globe.
Across sectors and disciplines, our students gain critical skills for solving complex problems. They learn to think deeply and broadly about public service and the impact policies have on people, markets and institutions. They experience the nexus of academic rigor and real-world relevance. And they leave prepared to create positive social change.
Through our distinguished faculty, innovative research centers, diverse student body and global network of accomplished alumni, we are redefining what it means to advance the public interest while honoring John F. Kennedy's call to public service.
We invite you to …
Ask what you can do ... and imagine what we can do together!

This has been bothering me for awhile now...
My buddy has a web server and hosts a few sites. One of his sites has a forum with a login function. He knows I play around with pentesting and such, and challenged me to crack the security on the login.
At first I went through a few basic sweeps, tried SQL injection, tried modifying the source code to bypass it. The basic stuff didn't work, and I'm still working on it. I have one question, though.
I'm sort of familiar with password crackers such as Cain and John the Ripper. I'm wondering, is there a program that can run a wordlist through a website login form? Does anybody have any ideas on the matter?
Thanks in advance.
tyraeon have you even booted with the CD? If the answer to your question were a snake it would bite you in the ass it's so close and abvious.

Will 2015 mark the end of Motley Crue?
Listen to Motley Crue on iHeartRadio
Motley Crue is reportedly making plans for their grand finale. Frontman Vince Neil tells the "Toronto Sun" that the group is "going to put out some new music next year" and then head out on a "farewell tour." He says they'll "do the world one more time and then call it a day." He anticipates wrapping up the tour - and Motley Crue - in 2015.
In explaining why the band is calling it quits Neil simply states that "it's time," and adds that they'd rather "go out on top" instead of "fading away." But the singer says the end of Motley Crue doesn't mean the end of his own music career, and he'll "continue to sing Motley" and release albums with his solo band. He adds that he also intends to devote more time to his other businesses, which includes a strip club in Las Vegas and his own line of alcohol.
Regarding his bandmates' future plans, Neil says bassist Nikki Sixx has his own radio show, while drummer Tommy Lee "wants to be a DJ." He offers no insights into what guitarist Mick Mars might have planned for his post-Motley life.
Motley Crue is currently on a Canadian tour. They'll be performing in Penticton, British Columbia Saturday night.

I can't help you with your network card issue but I would like to know what video settings you used? I am trying to install back track to my hard drive and it will only boot into the command line. Startx fails. Any help is appreciated.
Maybe your network card isnt supported. Buy a eee 900 for backtrack. All working :-)
You should be able to boot the BT3 with GUI if you select the "BT3 Graphics mode (VESA KDE)" when bootting. of course i don't know for sure because i'm using a flash stick everytime when i want to boot BT3 on my Acer aspire one. But i hope this helps you somewhat with your problem.
Your Wifi card will work with BT3 and your Aspire One, I have a One and using it with BT3 regularly.
I can only assume you are using the wrong interface.
Have you run Airmon-ng to look at the interfaces, and putting it in monitor mode.
can also confirm i have a Acer One 110 and it works fine with BT3...i run it from a usb pen almost daily
about to install to the SSD right now actually
ican use the program,go on the internet and so on, but i probably are typing something wrong.... got any good idiot tutorials? or would someone help me thru msn? realy want to get this working
im looking at purchasing a aspire one, can anyone confirm that the atheros wireless card can be put into "monitor" mode? a list of things that don't work/do work would be nice too.
(edit) never mind i must have over looked Messiah's post. im debating on purchasing one from newegg 329 or wait and preorder the one on amazon for 399 includes 160gb hhd, 1gb ram and most important 6 cell batt.
Hi! You can confirm that BT3Final works on AspireOne in monitor mode and packet injection? Thanks!
ok....quick update boys and girls...actually came to run spoonwep2 today..and it wont capture iv's even though am injecting at a high 1000sec rate.
weird but anyhow seems to work if i jus do it manually from the shell which is strange???
i run VESA KDE and just press space to continue and it works fine.
i now run BT3 from usb and have xp installed on the SSD and jus voided my warranty completely cause upgrading the RAM on this thing is a absolute nightmare man..
but its upto 1.5gb and have to say if u disable the page filing its running rather sweet. :-)

Trayvon Protesters Raid LA Walmart
(NEWSER) – Police in Los Angeles made at least 13 arrests and the city's new mayor appealed for calm after protests over the George Zimmerman verdict turned violent last night, with demonstrators breaking windows, attacking passers-by, and jumping on cars. More than 300 LAPD officers swarmed the city's Crenshaw District after a group of around 150 people broke off from a peaceful demonstration to cause havoc, reports the New York Times. A Walmart store was raided and a TV reporter and his cameraman were among those attacked.

Would you like to save as your currency permanently or for this visit only?
Room and shower were exceptional. Lots of hot water; elevators respond quickly. The hotel attempted to charge me $40 more for my one night than did Priceline. They did, however, come down to the lower figure upon checkout. The buffet breakfast in the 10th floor Executive lounge was only mediocre.
On my third visit to this hotel I was pleased that the quality was still has a superior rating from me. Enjoyed my stay again.
Great staff through the hotel, from the front desk anf restaurant to the maintenance and cleaning staff. Good size rooms. Great gym on top floor. Overall very good. The pool could should have a more private feel. It's right next to the restaurant and the pool furniture is not the best.
after we had a bad start for the trip because of the snow storm in washington dc we finally arrived in el salvador at 130 am on friday i took us another 30 min to get to hotel we were so tired and wre ready to just pass out the hotel staff as usual greated us so friendly for ur check in but the really nice part was when we woke up and all the people still rememberd us fom our trip befor which i thought was very nice to see i felt such a warm and kind welcome .it is very rare that front deskwaitershouse keepers and even security remembers guest since many people come and go i will for sure choose this hotel again and again i thank all the people at the hotel for a nice warm and wonderful stay will be back soon
Everything over all
Stayed there this past weekend. Excellent location, very clean, quiet and awesome staff! Great english speaking staff, very attentive.
I have stayed at many hotels and I have to say, this hotel has the best staff I have ever encountered - very friendly, always greeting you, helping you, genuinely interested in making your stay pleasant. Nice, clean rooms, comfortable beds, great breakfast, great location, safe, (located at the Gran Via - the nicest mall in town)...highly recommended... you won't be disappointed!
Muy limpio, lugar seguro no ruidos muy cómodo probablemente que tuve que pagar por mi desayuno
i stayed in many hotels all over the world and i have to say that the team of the courtyard marriott is by far one of the nicest places i ever stayed ,as soon as i walked in i was greated so friendly and any other time i walked in or out it stayed the same the smile and kindness of the staff and i mean all', is amazing i cant wait for the end o the year to go back i feel like i am going back to see friends
Excellent customer service, very helpful and very pleasant. N/A
Walking distance to the Gran Via mall, with a variety of stores and restaurants. Also, a movie theater. The service at the hotel and the hotel's restaurant was great. We liked very much the variety served at the breakfast buffet. everything was excellent, no negative experience.
The people here are great. The rooms are just as clean as would expect for a Marriott in the US. The location is excellent next to the quotLa Gran Viaquot shopping center which includes restaurants and even a grocey store near by. I have stayed at this hotel twice in the last two years and we are going again soon. What I like most is that it is predictable. I like to know what I can expect when going to a hotel especially in another country. I know Marriott very well so this was a logical choice for me. I am always greeted with a smile. Even when I have a concern they are visibly happy to help and correct the issue. I am impressed.
While eating-in can get expensive compared to traveling to an outside restaurant this hotel has special deals everyday. Example: after 9am breakfast is $9.95USD pp compared to $25 pp before 9am. Dinner gets 20% discount when 3 or more ppl dine together. You can have breakfast included in your stay but that must be arranged prior to arrival.
Staff service Location
The location of the hotel and the security of the area around the hotel. I feel I overpaid for my 5 night stay - XXX dollars, that was only for my room. No breakfast included. My mistake, did not paid enough attention at website during purchase. Next time, I will be more careful. Not to blame the hotel for that.
I would recomend this 100% because it is very well located for a business man like me whome wants to be away from heavy trafic and near to ammenities and over all safety.
Service was excellent. Restaurant was ok.\nOnly thing, I asked for a map everyday, while the concierge explained - I'm sure it was out of his hands, he could not provide one as 'they were out'\nC'mon Holiday Inn you can afford maps!\n\nGreat free coffee in the morning though... we liked that a lot.\n
Great location in San Salvador.My wife loved it because its near everything,There was a Starbuck in front of the hotel,rooms were clean.The only thing I woul suggest is to make reservation online before showing up to the hotel,the rates are different if you just show up without reservation.I would stay here for my next trip!

Jay Leno choked back tears as he closed his final episode of "The Tonight Show" on Thursday.
During the show's last few minutes, the veteran TV host became emotional as he thanked his longtime crew and reflected on the years they've spent together.
"This has been the greatest 22 years of my life," Leno said while crying. "I am the luckiest guy in the world. I got to meet presidents and astronauts and movie stars. It's just been incredible."
Leno went on to say a few words about Jimmy Fallon, who will take over "The Tonight Show" on February 17.
He added, "And, in conclusion, I want to quote Johnny Carson: 'I bid you all a heartfelt good night.'"

Police: Boy, 11, Beats Bus Driver
An 11-year old Albany boy is facing charges after Albany Police say he assaulted a 58-year old school bus driver on the bus, after the driver tried to break up a fight.
The 11-year old was fighting with another boy and then turned and shoved the driver down the bus's steps and then punched him in the head, police said. In New York State it is a felony to cause physical injury to a bus driver. The driver was taken to St. Peter's Hospital for evaluation on Friday, January 17 around 3:10 p.m.
Officers responded to the area of Linden Avenue and Kakely Street for the assault, police said. The driver works for Durham School Services. The boy was taken to the Albany Police Children and Family Services Unit and charged with Assault. He was released to a family member with an appearance ticket to appear in Family Court at a later date.

Have you tried encoding the payload you want, output it to an exe and then wrap them both together using iexpress in windows?
I've had some success with this before but have never tested it against Kaspersky. I use a small program convert.exe that does basic conversions for you, used that with my encoded payload (as an exe) and used iexpress to package the two executables together. Then when I run my 'new' convert.exe (which has the hidden payload) I can get a shell.
Not sure if this is where you're heading but it works well for me.
Sickness did a sweet tutorial on this using the MSN Installer to hide the payload, search google for "backtrack iexpress" and you should find the first hit is his tutorial.
Hope that helps somewhat.

exercises fit for pregnant women
I am a runner and run 10 miles almost every week. Is it safe to run when pregnant? If it is not, can you give alternative exercises?
24th April 2012 10:12 PM #2
Hi Ruth,
You may find this article useful: Pregnancy Workout Guide.
The article explains that exercise and pregnancy should go hand in hand! However, there are some precautions to look out for when you should stop exercising (e.g. if you get dizzy) - which are listed in detail in the link.
In terms of your specific question, it does say that you should exercise at a 'moderate intensity level' where 'you can still talk whilst exercising without feeling exceedingly short of breath' - I think running could be ok as long as you could do this (i.e. it wasn't too intense). This is particularly the case if you have ran for many years as your body would be used to this type of exercise.
I found swimming in pregnancy a great way to exercise.
I too will be interested to read others' suggestions on this topic.
Best wishes,

Hi LJ,
Thank you for answering all my questions. I just started running a year ago. During my first pregnancy, I wasn't as active.
25th April 2012 09:27 PM #4
You're very welcome I wish you a great rest of pregnancy. Please post any further questions you have.

Once again, some great advice from Laura-Jane. I especially like what she said here: '
you can still talk whilst exercising without feeling exceedingly short of breath
Please post back with your thoughts. Do you think that running 10 miles a week is too much? I'm just curious as to what your thoughts are now that you have some good guidelines.
Warm Regards,

The Lakers and Utah Jazz are tied in the loss column with 37 defeats. If they finish the season in a deadlock, Utah goes to the playoffs by holding the head-to-head tiebreaker with the Lakers.
Utah has four games left, including tonight at home against Oklahoma City.
If the Lakers don't finish with a five-game winning streak, the Jazz would have to lose at least twice for the Lakers to sneak into the postseason.
"We don't know what the hell's going to happen," Kobe Bryant said. "The way I figure, we put four together and no (bleeping) way we're losing the last game. No way.
"So we'll just put four together then deal with the last one when we get to it."

Oh the frustration of not having a camera.
Before we left for Chicago (March 6), I had 3 potatoes in my cabinet (cool, dark place, y'know). When I came back, they had sprouted. A lot. I decided to leave them there for a while longer to see what would happen.
The 2 Yukon golds, about 3 inches long, now have 4-inch sprouts.
The red potato, about 5 inches long, has sprouts coming from 3 places, each with a multitude of arms. The biggest sprout has about 12 arms. Picture a sea anemone attached to a potato.

text: After watching one bodyguard go down in a frenzy of drugs and hookers and defiled passport photos, Beyonce still has one bodyguard that has been around just as long and is a little more normal. Radar learned that the security company that assigned her other long time bodyguard, Julius de Boer is looking for a new bodyguard for the singer. There has been speculation before that Beyonce and Julius have hooked up and the story talks about some of those rumors. If you go back and watch the elevator video, Julius is the guy who holds Solange back. He works for Beyonce and not Jay-Z. I have always thought it strange that husband and wife use separate companies for their bodyguards and don't just have family bodyguards. I don't think this is a Heidi Klum situation. I don't think Beyonce is hooking up with the guy. I think Jay-Z likes the guy because he knows that he won't hook up with Beyonce. Also, Jay is the kind of guy who will cheat all day and night but if his wife ever so much as looks at another guy he won't allow that. There is no way he is going to let someone be with Beyonce almost 24/7 for six years if he thinks or suspects they are hooking up.

PHOTO: Miley Cyrus gets covered in dollar bills
Listen to Miley Cyrus on iHeartRadio
After Miley Cyrus stunned in a glamourous dress at the Night of Stars gala on Tuesday, the pop star partied in New York wearing a more… comfortable outfit.
On Wednesday night, the singer posted a photo of herself sitting on a West Village bar and straddling her friend Cheyne Thomas.
Cyrus, who is covered in dollar bills, flips off the camera and sticks out her tongue in the pic.
She captioned the photo, "So it's true. If you turn the lights off and look into a mirror and say #turndown4WHAT 3 times fast s–t gets TURNT."

This is the timepiece that incorporates a genuine U.S. Morgan silver dollar into its watchface. Designed by English engraver George T. Morgan, the coin was minted from 1878 to 1921. With three hands, the timepiece employs the reverse side of the coin as the watchface, featuring a bald eagle, the mintmark below the wreath, and a tiny, sideways 'M' etched into the left loop of the wreath's ribbon, the first U.S. coin to use the designer's initial on both sides. Each watchface is unique because of variation in wear, most notably on the crest of the eagle's breast. Each coin has a silver content that is 90% of 0.900 fineness and is cut cross-sectionally and surrounded by the watch case. Quartz movement provides reliable timekeeping. Engraving of up to 3 letters available for back of the watch. Black leather strap fits wrists up to 8 1/2" in circumference. 1 3/16" diameter x 7/16" D.

Morgan Silver Dollar Watch
By Brooksie
from Coral Springs, FL
I am a watch collector. I proudly add this watch to my substantial collection.It is a great looking piece and the Eagle side up is marvelous.I hope you add more Coin Watches to your catalog.
Nice, but I wanted to engrave the back
By silver anniversary
from Texas
The photo doesn't show the back of the watch. On the back is writing which makes it very difficult to engrave. You can get it engraved, but your words have to be fit in around all the other words that are there.

Ira Glass with the public radio show "This American Life" earned the George Polk Award for Radio Reporting for "Very Tough Love," an hour-long report that showed alarmingly severe punishments being meted out by a county drug court judge in Georgia. Drug courts were set up to emphasize rehabilitation instead of incarceration, but Glass' investigation revealed that Judge Amanda Williams strayed far from the principles and philosophy by routinely piling on jail sentences for relapses. One 17-year-old girl, initially in trouble for forging two small checks on her father's account, was facing more than 10 years in jail. Following the airing of "Very Tough Love," Georgia's Judicial Qualifying Commission filed 14 ethical misconduct charges against Williams. Within weeks of the filing of charges, Williams stepped down from the bench and agreed never to seek other judicial offices.

Daniel D. Portado: We feel that the immigrants are taking too many jobs, are bringing down the quality of life. They're not allowing our young American teenagers the character-building experiences of picking fruit and cleaning hotel beds.
Ira Glass: Daniel D. Portado, if you actually believe in deportation, what are you, yourself, still doing in California?
Daniel D. Portado: Well, I am here to help everyone get out. I hope to look forward to the day where I will stand at the border and say, will the last Mexican out of California please turn out the lights? That will be me.
Apple has released a list of its suppliers, but it still hides the companies it audited with anonymity. This makes it impossible to learn anything new about what is going on in Apple's supply chain, to verify anything, or hold anyone responsible. The FLA will audit a tiny percentage of Apple's factories, and also won't make public which factories they audit.
If Apple would spend less energy finessing its public image, and instead apply its efforts to real transparency and accountability, it could be a true leader for the electronics industry. Apple today is still saying what it said yesterday: trust us, we know best, there's nothing to worry about. They have not earned the trust they are asking for.
Apple conducted nearly twice as many audits in 2011 as they did in 2010.
They found fewer instances of child labor than in 2010: It was 91 cases in 2010 vs. 19 in 2011.
In our show last week we noted that in 2010, Apple found that only 32% of the suppliers it audited followed its rules about excessive working hours. According to the new report, in 2011 things did not get much better – 38% of facilities followed the rules. 37 facilities lacked basic systems to make sure that workers took off at least one day out of seven. In the report, Apple says that the problem of excessive working hours "has been a challenge throughout the history of our program. While this problem is not unique to Apple, we continue to fight it."
The report goes on to say that "reducing excessive overtime is a top priority for our supplier responsibility program in 2012." But again, Apple doesn't say which facilities were in violation of these rules.
Kevin I'm just ready to go home.
Ira How come you chose the service?
Kevin A court order.
Ira Really, court-ordered?
Kevin Yeah, that's how they do it in Texas. Instead of you going to jail, they send you to the armed service. So that's how--
Ira They gave you the choice of jail or the Navy?
Kevin Yeah, or the armed service, any armed service.
Ira You don't have to tell me the answer to this, but what kind of trouble were you in?
Kevin Drugs.
Ira Drugs?
Kevin Yeah.
Ira How much jail would you have had to do?
Kevin Seven years.
Ira So how do you like it?
Kevin It sucks. It's like a prison on water. That's what it is. I don't really like it.
Ira (in script) This was not, of course, what Lieutenant Gorell was hoping for from young Kevin. I asked, hoping to turn things to a more positive area, if Kevin is changing. If people grow when the courts send them out here.
Kevin No, because people get flown off the ship almost every month for doing drugs and all kinds of stuff. So no, it's whatever you got inside of you. That's what's going to change you. If you don't want to be changed, you ain't going to be changed.
Ira (in script) I could practically hear the acid eating away at Lieutenant Gorell's stomach at this answer. I wracked my brain for the most completely neutral question I can ask.
Ira So what do you do on your job? Like what is there to do?
Kevin You just walk around all day. For eight hours you walk around and check spaces.
Ira And what are you looking for?
Kevin Just people having sex, fights, anybody drinking, doing stuff they ain't supposed to do on the boat. Hopefully we'll get to see, but I haven't seen anything yet.
Ira You haven't seen anything yet?
Kevin No. I've been looking, though.
Ira (in script) I glance over and catch the expression on the lieutenant's face.
Ira It's actually like people are pretty well behaved on this boat.
Kevin No, that's not true. That's not true. I don't know who told you that, but this boat is like a love boat right now.
Jeff Gorell All right, you're done. If anyone ever asks you to do an interview again, say no.
"Because we could not cope, we went on strike," said the worker. "It was not about the money but because we felt we had no options. At first, the managers said anyone who wanted to quit could have one month's pay as compensation, but then they withdrew that offer. So we went to the roof and threatened a mass suicide."
The incident was successfully and peacefully resolved later that morning after discussions between the workers, local Foxconn officials and representatives from the local government, including the labor department. As part of the agreement between Foxconn and the employees in question, 45 of those employees chose to resign from the company under the terms of a voluntary resignation agreement and the remaining employees chose to remain as Foxconn employees. The welfare of our employees is our top priority and we are committed to ensuring that all employees are treated fairly and that their rights are fully protected. The operational changes that were the basis for this incident are being carried out in accordance with all relevant laws and regulations.

Fire Responsibility / Authority
Indiana Law mandates our fire responsibilities. Indiana Code 14-23-5-1 states that "The department, acting through the director and the state forester, shall establish and equip a firefighting organization within the Division of Forestry for the purpose of detecting, preventing, fighting and controlling fires on state forest lands." The code goes on to state that "The department may extend the same fire detection, prevention, fighting and control services thus established to other state lands under its supervision and control. The department may also establish such services for lands not owned by the state and not lying within the corporate limits of any city or town for the purposes of protecting the forests, fields and grasslands of the state." Other sections of the law deal with establishing and training a "volunteer forest firefighting service" and "authority to cooperate with the federal government and to receive benefits, aid and grants."

Wildland Fire Management
The Division of Forestry assumes Wildland fire responsibilities on approximately 7.328 million acres of forest and associated wildlands. This figure resulted from a study conducted by the U.S. Forest Service in the early 1970s. The acreage breakdown between forest and associated Wildland was partially re-verified by the 1986 statewide forest inventory. When the Fire Warden System was disbanded (late 1950s or early 1960s) the division reorganized to its current fire staffing structure. Due to our limited staffing and the emergence of a stronger rural fire service, Forestry's role regarding Wildland fire has changed. We have become a "support" agency regarding fire. Today, roughly 95 percent of all Wildland fires in Indiana are suppressed by rural and volunteer fire departments. Our fire programs are thus geared to support an already existing fire service. Through cooperative mutual aid agreements, the division is able to secure fire protection for most DNR properties, as well as other state and federal lands. This constitutes significant savings to the state of Indiana. Funding sources for our fire operations come from the division's operating, preventative maintenance (PM), and construction rehabilitation and repair (CR&R) funds. We also receive federal funding for State Fire Assistance (SFA) formerly Rural Fire Prevention and Control (RFP&C) and Volunteer Fire Assistance (VFA) formerly the Rural Community Fire Protection (RCFP) grant monies. The Division participates in National Mobility (all-risk management) operations through a cooperative agreement with the USDA Forest Service, State and Private Forestry.
The Indiana Department of Natural Resources (DNR), Division of Forestry, Fire Management Program provides organizational, operational and technical support regarding wildland and prescribed fire management. This support extends to all Division of Forestry lands, and may be extended to other DNR-controlled lands and to all lands outside incorporated cities and towns.
Outcomes Include:
Fire Management Goals
Volunteer Fire Assistance (formerly Rural Community Fire Assistance)
Federal Excess Property Program (FEPP)

Public documents show that the Jindal administration is relying on deals with private hospitals and one-time money to fill much of a $300 million gap needed to balance spending with lost federal revenues.
A sudden, congressionally mandated drop in federal Medicaid funding support carved a nearly $860 million hole in the state's $25 billion budget soon after the July 1 start of the fiscal year. The LSU hospitals got about two-thirds of the cuts when the administration announced its plan to fill $522.5 million of the hole.
Administration officials said at the time that they hoped $94 million in state surplus funds would materialize to match federal funds and close the remaining $300 million-plus gap.
State Department of Health and Hospitals documents, recently made public, show that LSU hopes to cover $135.6 million with public-private partnerships involving its seven south Louisiana hospitals.
Exactly where and how the savings would occur is not spelled out in the records. No deals have been struck, yet. Discussions with private providers continue behind the scenes.
Recently, the administration took emergency steps to financially entice the hospitals to take on more of the care that had been handled by the public facilities, often called charity hospitals. Selected private hospitals could be reimbursed from the program that pays for uninsured care, as well as receive higher payments for care through the federal/state Medicaid health insurance program for the poor.
Meanwhile, LSU's three north Louisiana hospitals used one-time revenues to bridge $89 million of shortfall during the fiscal year, the DHH-released documents show.
A note in the report states: "It will not be able to do so in the next fiscal year, thus highlighting the need for public-private partnerships."
The Shreveport operation is in the process of soliciting proposals for cooperative endeavors with a private partner. It is unclear what form that development will take.
The $328 million funding gap must be filled by June 30 — the end of the fiscal year.
DHH documents put the budget number at $340 million, when all activities are combined.
Commissioner of Administration Kristy Nichols said the administration expects no problem in meeting the budget goal.
The LSU official overseeing the restructuring, Dr. Frank Opelka, described the situation as "fluid by the day" with "a lot of moving targets."
As the private hospital deals are being crafted behind the scenes, LSU hospitals are proceeding with a plan to make $115.6 million in cuts, including the layoff of about 1,500 employees, reductions in emergency, intensive care, surgery and inpatient beds as well as elimination of some services.
"There are changes happening at each hospital," Opelka said. "We are coordinating with them making sure that every day we are on target."
Opelka said the service reductions are on track. If revenue opportunities arise in working with private partners, there's a chance that some cuts could be reversed, he said.
Employees at LSU hospitals across south Louisiana including those in Baton Rouge, New Orleans, Lafayette, Houma, Bogalusa, Independence and Lake Charles have received notice of impending layoffs effective the beginning of business Jan. 21.
State Civil Service, which requires its signoff, has started receiving hospital-by-hospital layoff plans.
In LSU's three north Louisiana hospitals the cuts are much less severe, particularly in Shreveport, with a decision made to use dollars from the physician practice plan and other surplus dollars to cushion the blow, said Dr. Hugh Mighty, vice chancellor for clinical affairs of the LSU Health Sciences Center. The Shreveport hospital has no layoffs planned, but is eliminating 224 vacant positions.
Administration officials initially said they hoped to fill the gap between revenues and spending with $94 million in state surplus funds that would materialize to match federal fund.
Commissioner of Administration Nichols said use of surplus dollars remains in the budget-balancing plan even though key lawmakers said the initial claim on any surplus is to replenish the state's rainy day fund.
"Obviously, our desire is to use the surplus, so that we could mitigate the additional cuts that would have to be made to health care and higher education. We feel very strongly about that decision," Nichols said. "I'm certain there's going to be some debate about it."

I'd rather watch Grizzly fight than GSP
he bores the shit out me. he doesnt even look to finish! just ride out the decision and come out a fight with a busted face while diaz didnt have a scratch on him
I think people sometimes forget that this is PRIZE fighting. Not entertainment fighting. You win, you get more money. And that's all that matters really. Don't get hurt and make more money. That's what I would want if I was a fighter.
Sherdog.com - The number one MMA site on the web today!
That's the thing with the great fighters everyone knows what they are gonna do but can't stop them, from a technical point of view gsp is amazing, as is silva but I much prefer to watch silva because you know when his head is right someone is going to sleep. GSP isn't gonna fight recklessly because he's the champ he's got too much to lose by getting in firefights with people I'd prefer he went after it more but its his career and he does what he sees fit, all these people who fight him just aren't good enough to take him out his comfort zone I'm sure we'd see a different gsp if he was getting lit up and couldn't take them down,let's hope hendricks is the man to do this
For some reason, I don't see Hendricks as the man to do it, I see GSP being able to take him down and Hendricks not being able to submit him from the bottom. I guess we'll see, but if he gets passed Hendricks, I think the UFC might force him to move up to Middleweight allowing him a little time to change his body.
I think hendricks problem may be that his stand up is very basic, GSP will deal with this pretty easily imo. We all know that he has a sweet left hook, but he has nothing else and is off balance if he misses, and Georges will take advantage of this. One of his many skills is nutralising the opponents strengths and sticking to a game plan which he does as well as anyone in the UFC (from keeping Kos on the end of his jab for 5 rounds/not letting shields get it to the floor to sticking alves, diaz and condit on their backs). Hendricks is no doubt a threat but he needs to vary his boxing/kickboxing to take the title, I'm not sure he has the skills in this area to do it??

Toby Keith now has song just for The Marines
Listen to Toby Keith on iHeartRadio
Toby Keith says he's finally remedied a situation that's gone on for more than a decade. The country star has been supporting the troops through the USO since 2002, but never had a song to play specifically for the Marines -- until now. Now he has "Call A Marine."
Keith wrote "Call A Marine" with Bobby Pinson. It's one of the bonus tracks on the deluxe edition of his latest album, Drinks After Work. And Toby says it really fills an important role.
The singer admits that his hit "American Soldier" is "a great tribute," but "there's a difference between a Marine and a soldier" that any Marine would be happy to explain.

Steelers' Garvin fined for Huber hit
Steelers linebacker Terence Garvin has been hit hard by the league office for his hard hit on Bengals punter Kevin Huber.
The NFL has fined Garvin $25,000, WLWT's Artrell Hawkins reports.
Garvin was not flagged on the
Garvin told the
"When you're playing football, you don't think of all that, you're thinking about doing what you've got to do to make a play," Garvin said. "I wasn't out there trying to be vicious or anything like that, I'm just trying to do what I can to make a play and help my team out. When you're in a game, you're trying to make a play, that's all I'm thinking about."
The $25,000 fine shows the NFL also wants Garvin to think about lowering his target.

As they negotiate the details of the Temporary Payroll Tax Cut Continuation Act, members of Congress should find ways to continue unemployment benefits and reject proposals to exclude children of immigrant families from the Child Tax Credit, said Bishop Stephen E. Blaire of Stockton, Calif., chairman of the Committee on Domestic Justice and Human Development of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops. "The economy is still leaving too many people without work," wrote Bishop Blaire in a letter to Congress on Feb. 9. "When the economy fails to generate sufficient jobs, there is a moral obligation to help protect the life and dignity of unemployed workers and their families. We also must protect those programs that help low-income workers escape poverty and raise their children in dignity."

Appalachian Trail
East Ellijay, GA 30540
The Appalachian Trail extends some 75 miles through the primitive areas of the Chattahoochee National Forest. Although rising at times to elevations of over 4,000 feet, the Trail is mostly along ridges at elevations of about 3,000 feet. It offers unlimited hiking adventure of exceptional challenge and variety.
Ascents and descents are sometimes steep, but are often rewarded by scenic vistas from rocky outcrops and open summits. A series of white blazes, trail marking, indicate the Appalachian Trail while blue blazes designate side trails and trails to water. Along the way, hikers will find shelters for camping.
Ellijay, Ga., is proud to now be an Appalachian Trail Community. The Trail's southern terminus is located atop remote Springer Mountain, near Forest Service Road 42 in Gilmer County. Because this area is difficult to reach by automobile, an 8.8-mile blue blazed "approach trail" begins at Amicalola Falls State Park on GA 52. Outstanding peaks along the trail include Big Cedar Mountain, Blood Mountain, Cowrock Mountain, Rocky Mountain, and Tray.

Strangely enough, I've been thinking about this over the past couple of weeks and the more I think about it, the more I believe that free will possibly doesn't exist. Everything that's happening kinda has to happen the way that it happens, so through thinking about these sorts of things, I'm coming to a belief that decision making might also be a process that can be described and predicted if your knowledge of understanding of the way things work is good enough.
Once again. great post!
