|John T. Huston
In ancient times, a vast ocean covered the area that is now the Huston-Brumbaugh Nature Center. Thick deposits of sediments built up on the floor of this ocean and plants and animals were trapped in the sand and mud. Today, we sit on top of thousands of feet of sedimentary rocks including limestone, shale, coal, and sandstone. Oil and gas can be found in these sediments. More recently, from a geological perspective, thick sheets of ice covered the area that is now northeastern Ohio. As the ice receded, huge animals including wooly mammoths inhabited the area. At about the same time, the first humans moved into the area, finding a living by hunting, gathering and trading. The first European to move onto the land here was John T. Huston, who began farming this land a little before the beginning of the American Civil War.
Huston cleared some of his land for pastures and crops, built a log home and eventually a frame home. His large bank barn still stands as a testament to the craftsmanship of his day. Over 25 acres of his land he kept as a woodlot and today we can still find beech trees there that are several centuries old.
The Brumbaugh Center for Environmental Science was established thanks to a gift from Dr. John D. Brumbaugh. Dr. Brumbaugh donated the 109 acres that had been his grandfather's farm to Mount Union College in December of 1986. The farm, located in Washington Township, Stark County, Ohio included old growth and second growth forest and a large bank barn. Dr. Brumbaugh also established a generous endowment to provide for the development of the area as a nature preserve and educational facility. The property was named The John T. Huston - Dr. John D. Brumbaugh Nature Center, in honor of both Dr. Brumbaugh and his grandfather, John Huston. It was Dr. Brumbaugh's wish that the area be used as a nature preserve for the education and enjoyment of all people and the area be developed in such a way as to lead visitors into an exploration of the outside environment. The income from Dr. Brumbaugh's endowment was used to build the Visitors Center (1991) and a connected Bird Observatory (2001). In 2002, the Visitors Center was expanded by the development of the Elizabeth A. Koch ('58) Environmental Learning Center that included two classrooms, an office and a library. Dr. Robert Spitzer gave the Koch Center in memory of his wife. In 2003, an additional 32 acres of land was purchased adjacent to the original Huston Farm.

Further opportunities for research and teaching became available with the acquisition of the Ball Research Forest in southern Stark County. The 24 acre parcel of managed forest, a gift-purchase from Jim and Esther Ball, includes both coniferous plantations and managed hardwoods. It is located south of the glaciated area and has examples of soils and plants not found at the Nature Center.
Wetland studies are available at LiMRod marsh, a wetland at the headwaters of the Mahoning River that is leased from the First United Presbyterian Church of Alliance. This area is used for class visits and student/faculty research into wetland ecology.
Today the Brumbaugh Center provides support for numerous classes at Mount Union, welcomes thousands of school students to environmental education programs, creates opportunities for hundreds of people to give of themselves as volunteers and offers a place for reflection and nature study for any who choose to visit.

[quote:Anonymous Coward 43213963:MV8yMjg4NjAzXzM4OTk0NjI2XzNGRUIyREI5] [quote:oldmandowntheroad:MV8yMjg4NjAzXzM4OTg5NTcyXzg4QkQ1MkQx] The only reason your here is because what you Pleiadians did half-a-million years ago screwed up this planet. Now you have come back from the future to correct your mistakes. You saw who we were and you where afraid of our potential, so you mislead the people of Earth so you could be top dog,I guess the jokes on you. Buy that I mean if you are who you say you our. Then you KNOW you can't go forward or progress unless you fix the mess you and your ego made. Not only did you mix with us through sex, changing our DNA. You also fabracated our current belief-systems. They were naive and thought you were God's when you weren't You where more technally advancend for sure, so these humble Childen of the Family of Lightt, or God's children where decieved. Some your lies you told them are, You are a sinner at birth-wrong, we are a creation of the Prime-Creator We are worthless,wrong we are not worthless we arn't dammed to hell, because there is no hell, to begin with You seperated us with different religous belif-systems, instead we are all ONE, we are all interconnected and dependent on one and another. You on purpose lowered our vibrational rate so we would be nothing more than slaves to your race.. Know that our vibrational rate is so low, we are begining to collaspe. How did you lower our vibrational rate, easy. Through booze, sex, drugs, fake religons, that are always saying we are nothing, worthless, born in sin, lower than a cow patty in the field, it's all bullshit! Now the Prime Creator is pissed, and is coming back to fix this mess. So tell me how are you going to fix this mess, of greed, lust for power and control, How will you tell 7 billion carnel people, to raise there vibrational rates and live in peace and harmony? If you can't pull this off, then there will be a pole shift and wipe the slates clean, start all over again. Remember we have free-will, but how are you going to them everything that they believe in is a lie? Good luck with that, but my teacher has always said the planet, is way more important than us humans, they the Game Masters can reseed a planet, than to build something like Earth takes millions of years, kill us and reseed only a thousand years or so. I pray everybody can raise their vibrations and we all can asend togather [/quote] Such a FEAR based "Vatican" approved/generated viewpoint you bring to the table. I think we must just keep an open mind instead of rushing to judgement and risk failing to recognize what might indeed be the Second Coming. Let's be careful not to "crucify" by way of public condemnation before we have heard them speak ourselves and weighed their words. All we can do is, "wait to decide" and not, therefore, make arbitrary judgments out of fear. There is enough fear in the world as it is. Some say that the Dec.21st 2012 galactic alignment of our galaxy is allowing for gamma rays to raise our vibratory frequency through the vibration of our third-dimensional matter by feeling love over fear. Through the light frequency created by the multi-dimensional aspects of love, the energy is to create openings of gateways into other dimensions which allow for other celestial beings to make their way to our 3rd and 4th dimensional state of time space. The light is said to be growing as the veil is being lifted off of those who live in fear. This will herald the beginning of 5,000 years of the golden age. Where the wealth and abundance of the earth is to be know by all. The coming of the Apocalypse is literally translated as the end of the world as we know it and the loss of fear in favor of love will decimate the control grid of currency and politicians. [/quote]
Original Message
Imagine this if you will.
You experience strange ET Contact & happenings your entire life.
"They" begin to communicate through telepathy leading you to Cosmic Spiritual Truths regarding how Thought Create Reality subject matter.
They begin to reveal themselves in the Physical in Orbs Of Light/Plasma over Lake Erie.
They allow you to film them.
Your footage goes viral gaining worldwide attention.
Your footage lands you on a prime time TV show. On the episode, They decide to test your blood and it is revealed you do not have normal human blood, A very rare blood anomaly/bloodline that the world's best military and civilian doctors are at a loss to explain?
The host of the show Legendary UFO Researcher Bill Birnes goes on to say "I've got a funny feeling that you are being recruited and there is a branch of the government that you're being recruited for - that somehow, some way, you are a hybrid between "ET" and humans. And they are giving you a course of study preparing you to meet your ET higher self."
Soon After the airing of this show You are indeed contacted by this branch of the government and offered a course of study.
Then you are met by beings claiming to be ET's themselves, and these beings announce themselves as the Anunnaki, which is a term at that point in time you didn't even know the meaning of.
These Anunnaki tell you that you yourself are an Anunnaki incarnated into the Nephilim "Royal" Human/Anunnaki Hybrid Bloodline?
And then this secret branch of the government begins to inform and guide you to information to make sense out of all of this?
Welcome to my world!
Let me tell you a little about myself, I am a musician, filmographer and UFO experiencer. I have been told my footage of the Lake Erie UFO's has created a Billy Meier like buzz!
What I am sharing is that this unassuming rocker seems to have developed an intuitive relationship with these craft!
In my home state of Ohio, I have been cataloging video after video of UFO's over Lake Erie. What makes these different than most sightings is that the phenomena consists almost entirely of 'Pulsating orb's of light' characteristics. Unusual lights seen changing colors, converging, and separating over the lake. Stories of the unexplained phenomena date back over 150 years to the indigenous tribes. My Lake Erie UFO footage has been featured on Fox News, Coast to Coast AM, Rense.com, hbccufo.org and in the feature film's "UFO's unplugged with Dan Aykroyd", And David Sereda's latest film From Here To Andromeda which I also co-produced. I've most recently been featured on the History Channel's "UFO's Hunters" show and filmed a pilot for a Alien/UFO based show for Spike TV in 2012 that was never aired for various reasons.

Strategic planning: Your piece in the CTA puzzle
I received a survey from you — what's that all about?
You received that letter because CTA is engaging in a long-term strategic planning process, with the theme "Your Voice. Our Union. Our Future." That survey and this planning process are about the future of CTA, CTA's role in public education, and its role in our communities. With your help, we are taking a critical look at who we are, exploring who we want to be, and helping create a plan to ensure we are a strong, vital and relevant organization in the future.
I know change can be scary, especially when you don't know what lies ahead. It can also be very exciting. I'm feeling a little of both right now, and together, I know, we will make the right decisions for our students, our profession, and our union. We will hold on to what's working and not be afraid to cast away what's not — even if that means doing things differently than we've always done them. In building this strategic plan, we will embrace new ideas — your ideas — and we will welcome all members' input in order to build the CTA we all want for our future.
I'm so proud of all that we accomplished together. But as we celebrate these personal, professional and political victories and mark the 150th anniversary of CTA, we must also take a deep breath and reflect.
So thank you for making time to take the "Our Future" survey. Your thoughts and ideas and concerns captured in this online survey will be instrumental in helping CTA become a better organization.
We heard from school teachers who are concerned about losing a voice in the profession, from community college faculty who want to know there will be continued funding for their students, and from education support professionals who have worries about school safety.
We heard from CTA staff who had questions about the process and from local leaders who shared the types of support they need.
You shared your opinion on health care and retirement benefits, educator evaluation, school funding, and classroom topics. You let us know how CTA is meeting your needs when it comes to class size, curriculum, standards and assessment, academic freedom, and student discipline. You shared the importance of CTA's grievance assistance, discounts on travel and financial products, professional development, and legal representation.
It was interesting to read what you understand about your CTA — the governance structure, how budget decisions are made, and the role and function of the CTA State Council of Education. You've shared how you want CTA to communicate with you and what type of information you want to receive from your union.
It was good information to read, because sometimes we get so engaged in the minutiae of getting our work done, we lose sight of our ultimate goals. For example, far too often we spend so much time fighting "reformers" who have not set one foot into a classroom, that we're in "defend" mode rather than "let us listen" or "show you how" mode. You know, that's the biggest problem with many education reformers, like Michelle Rhee, Gloria Romero, and even Bill Gates. They do not have education practitioners at the table; instead, they surround themselves with hedge fund managers and moneyed interests, and they assume they know more about teaching and learning than those of us in the classroom. They don't.
Your voice is essential to this process if you want a strong union that helps you in your classroom and helps you advocate for your students. We can make our future whatever we want, but we have to do it together. So, thank you for being the real education experts.
Thank you for what you do for California's students every day. And thank you for joining me on this journey of change. This strategic planning process will surely take us to new places together.
I'm ready. Are you?
Every child deserves a chance to learn and no child succeeds alone.

Report: Remy Ma to be released in July
Listen to Remy Ma on iHeartRadio
Terror Squad rapper Remy Ma will soon end her prison sentence for shooting a woman in 2007.
According to Vlad TV, Remy's husband, rapper Papoose, recently told a crowd at a concert in Allentown, Pennsylvania that Remy will be released from prison in July. Papoose then led the audience in a "free Remy" chant.
After being convicted of assault and illegal weapons possession in 2008, Remy was sentenced to eight years in prison. She was accused of shooting a woman in the stomach because the woman had allegedly stolen $3,000 from her.
Remy Ma is perhaps best known for her contribution to the Terror Squad hit "Lean Back," which also featured Fat Joe.

NHTSA — Electrical System Problems
CarComplaints.com Notes: While there are fewer "radiator leaked into transmission" complaints for the 2008 model year, they are starting to pile up. Buyer beware.
Nissan has extended their radiator warranty on 2005-2010 Pathfinders to 8 years/80,000 miles. However the average mileage for transmission failure for earlier model years is 95,000 miles, which conveniently (for Nissan) is just past the limit of their extended warranty. Owners beware.

Hi guys,
I have a 10" Pope Bisect up for trade or sale.
I reside in Singapore and will be making a trip up to Oahu this 24th Nov 2012, with my wife for our 2nd honeymoon.
An avid surf enthusiast , I got this board through a friend in Australia about a few years ago.
Board condition is good , no dings or cracks visible.
Living in Singapore , we do not get any surf and I have to travel up north to Desaru , Malaysia during the monsoon months to get my fix....which happens from Dec to Mar every year.
Driving overland for 90km to literally go to another country to get a ride is not something I can afford to do on a daily basis.
At that point , the Pope would sound like a good idea for ease of transportation.
My regular board is a smaller fish but I would like to trade or sell the Pope to get a proper longboard as a remembrance of my visit to Oahu.
I do not know of any shops or dealers willing to take in the board for a trade.
Was hoping to get a heads up from the guys here , probably you could point me in the right direction.
If I could pre-arrange a shop to take a look at it for a trade or sale, I would bring the board , bag and all with me during my visit.
As mentioned it is still in good condition with everything intact, however I do have a problem with the underside clip. It doesn't catch as easily as before.
Small problem which can be rectified.
I will attach a picture of the board and more pictures are available upon request.
Hope to get some help in locating a shop that might be able to help.
I'll be staying at Lewers Street during my stay on Oahu.
Thanks in advance for any kind of help.
Best Regards,

What Nicolai is interested in is time and movement, both of which are present in so much of his art.
Nicolai uses the German word for colonel, a title which Uncle Toby never bore.
When I asked Nicolai what the children did for school, he laughed scornfully.
But Nicolai is not appalled by the titanic dimensions of the monster he is fighting.
The figures of none of Nicolai's habitual friends were there.
This perpetuum mobile gives its peculiar colour to Nicolai's reflections.
The scheme was suggested by Nicolai, by whom the Letters were published.
M. Derues and his wife, a lady belonging to the distinguished family of Nicolai, visited Buisson-Souef.
But Nicolai, firmer of spirit than Galileo, has refused to recant.
Nicolai sees the beginning of war in individual predatory acts, involving violence and the need of defense.

U.S. Policy and Response to Humanitarian Crisis In Africa
U.S. Policy and Response to Recent Humanitarian Crisis In Africa
Anne C.
Assistant Secretary, Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration
Ethiopian Community Development Council (ECDC) Africa Conference
Arlington, VA
May 16, 2013
Thank you for that kind introduction, and for having me here today. And thank you for your decades of service to refugees in this country and around the world.
There are a series of issues I'd like to address today, ranging from refugee crises overseas to our own domestic programs that resettle refugees in America and help them to rebuild their lives.
I want to update you on the latest actions of the Bureau of Population Refugees and Migration during what is proving to be a busy time. I've been told you all have a special interest in developments in Africa, so I will spend a few extra minutes on African refugee issues.
Devastating overseas emergencies are pushing more and more refugees from their homes, and the United States plays a leading role in responding to these emergencies.
Our overall approach to responding to these crises will remain consistent: working multilaterally with international organization partners such as the UN Refugee Agency (or UNHCR), the International Committee of the Red Cross and the International Organization for Migration; focusing on protection and finding safe places for refugees to re-start their lives; and burden-sharing with host governments as well as other donor governments.
We will also continue to look to aid agencies that serve as our partners to augment the international response.
PRM is dealing with a major refugee crisis in the Middle East at the same time as a number of new refugee and displacement crises in Africa.
These include people fleeing violence in northern Mali who have yet to get to go home, refugees crossing the border from Sudan into South Sudan, and continued violence in Eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. How are we doing in responding to these crises?
In Syria, more than 70,000 are dead, 1.4 millon people are refugees and millions more displaced or hurt inside Syria. We applaud the generosity of Turkey, Jordan, Lebanon, and Iraq for hosting the Syrian refugees who have crossed onto their territory. I have visited each of these countries, met with Syrian refugees, and sought help for them from senior government officials. Much is being done but, quite frankly, the daunting scale of this crisis is challenging everyone involved. Inside Syria, along with USAID, we support efforts to get aid to those who need it despite shifting battle-lines.
At the same time as this major crisis grips the headlines, the conflict in the north of Mali has resulted in nearly 300,000 internally displaced persons (IDPs) and nearly 180,000 refugees in neighboring countries.
Last Fall, the UN High Commissioner for Refugees and I traveled to Damba refugee camp in Burkina Faso, just 50 kilometers from the Mali border. Part of our mission was to draw attention to the crisis, so we appeared all over the newspapers and airwaves in Ouagadougou and then repeated ourselves before the media and diplomats of Geneva.
Prospects for peace in Mali are hard to gauge, but this crisis has not been forgotten. Yesterday, a donors conference was held in Brussels for Mali and at that conference there was an understanding that there needs to be more development in that country, especially in the north. The US announced another $32 million, bringing total US funding through international and non-governmental organization for Malian refugees and IDPs to more than $180 million.
On July 1st, the UN will start bringing in MINUSMA 11,200 peacekeeping troops and more than 1400 police. MINUSMA will subsume the African-led AFISMA mission that was set up last September – essentially many MINUSMA troops will be West African peacekeepers who are already on the ground. A separate French strike force will remain to deal with extremists and terrorists. Elections are scheduled for July 28th.
And suffering in Sudan has not abated. You are all familiar with the Darfur situation. More recently, however, our attention has been focused on conflict along Sudan's southern border and the 230,000 Sudanese refugees who have fled to neighboring South Sudan, Ethiopia, and Kenya over the past two years. PRM has provided over $50 million to meet these emergency needs through UNHCR and its partners.
At the same time, in Eastern Congo, violence has driven new waves of Congolese refugees from their homes … and we will need to continue to work to help them.
Thanks to continued strong support from Congress this fiscal year, PRM will maintain its leadership role in responding to the needs of refugees worldwide, including efforts to assist refugees to return home voluntarily in safety and dignity when conditions permit-- like the 70,000 Congolese who were able to go back to the Democratic Republic of the Congo from neighboring Congo-Brazzaville.
When I was in Kenya this past year, I was asked about the possibility for Somalis to return. Even as some voluntary return may be possible, it is vital that refugees continue to find safety in Kenya given the volatile security situation and scarcity of food inside Somalia.
Even as some 80% of Somali refugees indicate on surveys that they are willing to repatriate if peace returns to Somalia, more than 60,000 new Somali refugees have fled to neighboring countries so far this year.
When return home isn't possible, we also support local integration in host communities. For example, some 160,000 1972-era Burundi refugees were initially offered Tanzanian citizenship in 2009 and accepted. Some political work needs to be done but the initiative on the part of the Tanzanian Government is a model that may provide valuable lessons on local integration that could be applied to other long-term refugee situations around the world.
Let's now turn our attention back to our own country, the United States. As all of you here today know, the United States is also the world's leading resettlement country, admitting more refugees each year than all other resettlement countries combined – more than three million since 1975.
And we all know that our own communities have been as enriched by these newcomers as they have been by the opportunities this country has provided them.
Our overall resettlement policy remains the same: we will continue to strive to achieve the President's refugee admissions ceiling, focusing on the most vulnerable who cannot go home or be integrated in their country of first asylum.
The PRM Bureau has gone to extraordinary lengths in the past year to reach refugees in need of resettlement who were previously inaccessible because of dangerous conditions in the places where they had sought asylum. In Kenya, UNHCR has referred thousands of Somalis in the Dadaab camp for U.S. resettlement. Unfortunately, the Department of Homeland Security was unable to interview them because it was determined to be too risky to send DHS officers to Dadaab.
Last year, we provided additional funding to build a transit center in Kakuma camp, where conditions are safer, and have moved close to 1,000 individuals from Dadaab to Kakuma to continue the process for U.S. resettlement. Another 900 will be moved to Kakuma in the next week. These refugees, many of whom have been living in Dadaab for more than 20 years, will start arriving in the United States this month.
Many of you know by now that UNHCR has announced its intention to refer up to 50,000 Congolese for resettlement over the next five years. Most will likely come to the United States. Given the level of trauma and need among this population, we want to work together with all of you to do this right.
That's why we've formed a working group to bring together partners from all across the spectrum – overseas and domestic, government, International Organizations, and NGOs – to see how we can better prepare the refugees and communities for successful resettlement.
Late last year the Government of Chad contacted UNHCR to say it had changed its policy and would be open to the resettlement to other countries of refugees from Darfur who have been living in Eastern Chad. PRM staff traveled to Chad in February to look into this possibility. My colleagues are cautiously optimistic and we will be reporting more on this to you in the coming weeks and months.
Working closely with the Department of Homeland Security, we re-instated the priority three or "P-3" family reunion program this year with a new DNA requirement to ensure that the program is fulfilling its purpose of reuniting relatives.
I'm pleased to report that we are on track to admit the number of refugees in the Presidential Determination this year. That is 70,000 refugees– a more than 20% increase over last year's number.
You should also know that we've been able to admit these refugees in a much more even pace than in recent years. Just under 50% of the refugees we expect this year were admitted in the first half of the fiscal year.
We recognize that this increase comes at a time of shrinking state and local budgets, cuts in social services, and the challenges of raising private contributions. As you know, PRM has helped deal with economic challenges to the program by doubling the amount of funding provided on a per capita basis to receive and place refugees in 2010. We have provided modest increases since then.
We also are providing "floor funding" to our resettlement agency partners, essentially guaranteeing sufficient funding for services to 60,000 refugees so that program managers can plan and hire staff with the assurance that the funding will be there.
Despite all these improvements, we know that many refugees are still struggling in the early weeks and months of their arrival in the States. This leads me to ask: How can our domestic programs best address the needs of refugees? What more can we do to help refugees effectively integrate into new communities?
Given the overall budget situation in Washington, we all acknowledge the need to widen the circle of domestic "stakeholders" in the refugee resettlement program. We need to ensure a warm reception for the refugees we resettle. We need to find creative ways to expand participation in the program at the local level and support for the program by community leaders.
PRM is increasingly reaching out to state and local elected officials, employers, health clinics, schools, and others, during our domestic trips. We are acutely aware of the importance of early employment for refugees, and therefore of the importance of your developing strong relationships with responsible employers in your communities.
Employers PRM staff and I have met in our travels around the US have been among the strongest advocates for the refugee admissions program. Tyson Foods, which provides English language training to refugees, has created community liaison positions to assist refugees navigate services and builds bridges with the host community. A firm in Ft. Wayne, Indiana was inspired by the challenges refugees have overcome and was impressed by their work ethic. Burmese now make up 10% of the workforce there. A Subway sandwich shop owner in Baltimore who keeps hiring more refugees says they are the best employees he's ever had.
I know that you all could name dozens, if not hundreds, of companies that are also strong advocates for the program, and they are an essential part of the success of the US Refugee Admissions Program.
ECDC's affiliated agencies benefit from the volunteer work of thousands of highly motivated and caring community members. We recognize the strong one-on-one relationships developed when an individual agrees to help welcome a refugee to his or her community, and I know this is happening every day at your offices across the country.
Whether it's preparing an appropriate home-cooked meal for a family upon their arrival, helping to teach them English, or explaining how to navigate the local grocery store or bus system, these relationships are life-affirming and life-changing for both sides. These relationships also help build crucial support among Americans for the refugee resettlement program. I'll be curious to hear from you what you all are doing to reach out to non-traditional stakeholders in your communities.
In conclusion, I want to thank you for all you do all year long as an essential part of the US Refugee Admissions Program. The work of communities and networks of volunteers helps to turn the promise of America --as a land that welcomes refugees -- into a reality. The success of our resettlement program depends on you. Thank you for the part you play in letting refugees turn their stories of tragedy into ones of triumph.

Whereas Beyonce's surfer look is easy with a loose printed vee-neck top and shorts. Remember to choose your prints carefully by using smaller lighter prints and fabrics. For solids, think darker colors because they make you look thinner but be creative and wear navy, army green, grey or purple instead of black.

Corporations are circumventing lobby laws by purchasing direct access to the nation's lawmakers, according to a recent Bloomberg investigative report. Through membership fees paid to the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), a Washington D.C. based policy institute, corporate entities like Exxon Mobil and Koch Industries are playing an active role in shaping state legislation.
According to Bloomberg, Koch and Exxon are among energy companies that stand to benefit from a cross-country energy policy that they helped write. Both companies paid a participation fee between $3,000 and $10,000 to sit at a legislative drafting table, among policy authors and elected officials.
ALEC charges membership fees of up to $35,000 and levies additional costs if companies want to join in policy creation sessions. The resulting draft "model legislation" is then adopted by member officials who support its passage into law.
The process amounts to a legal loophole, through which corporations can influence public procedure without registering the activity as lobbying.
According to Bob Edgar, president of Common Cause, "this is just another hidden way for corporations to buy their way into the legislative process."
The alliance between lawmakers and some of the country's most powerful corporate entities has elected representatives escorting industry issues through the political process. Companies like Exxon and Koch, who are generous campaign supporters, have direct access to legislators behind ALEC's closed doors.
"It's an end-run around transparency and disclosure laws," says former Democratic representative Jeremy Kalin. As paying members of ALEC, corporations are in effect "paying for an opportunity to connect directly with legislators" he says.
According to Bloomberg, ALEC's internal financial structure is a guarded mystery, as is its confidential list of corporate and legislative members. Because ALEC is a tax-exempt organization it is not required to disclose industry funds.
Bloomberg's investigation uncovered internal documents that demonstrate a heavy reliance on corporate financing. Memberships for lawmakers are a meager $100 for two years, while companies can pay up to $100,000 for high-profile 'sponsor' positions and up to $35,000 for a seat at the drafting table. Companies can also sponsor events, like the one Exxon will pay $45,000 to host next month, to educate member politicians about unconventional gas.
"We try to provide our views on legislation to anyone who will listen, including legislators and non-governmental organizations," says Alan Jeffers, Exxon spokesman.
There are currently more than 2000 state lawmaker and 300 private sector members of ALEC. There are 80 former ALEC members who currently represent their states in Congress.
Not surprisingly, the EPA's proposed greenhouse gas reductions are emerging as a target for ALEC draft legislation, which is in part shaped by Exxon, Koch and other industry representatives. An ALEC report entitled "EPA's Regulatory Train Wreck: Strategies for State Legislators" encourages state officials to pressure Congress to stop the EPA "by any means necessary." So far 13 states have implemented ALEC-style legislation.
ALEC spokesperson Raegan Weber says the organization is committed to supporting "good conservative policy" which, according to the company website, means the promotion of free markets, limited government, federalism and individual freedom.
The reduction of GHGs in the atmosphere, if managed by a federal agency like the EPA, would for ALEC amount to a corruption of these principles. "Our position on EPA regulations is that they're usurping the legislative process," says Weber, which is remarkably similar to how others would describe the activities of ALEC.

misinformation is a science and an art but there's no denying pollution is a poison. So why spew poison into the sky if can be mitigated or totally obliterated using renewal clean energy. Renewable energy will also create a whole new business sector. Human nature prescribes to the might makes right theory. So the stronger more organized, wealthier lobbyist will get the nudge to come out on top. Renewable energy will need a nudge from the private sector because the govt and the fossil fuel sector are in bed with each other.

"Renewable energy will also create a whole new business sector."
In that case fossil fuel will become obsolete in due time and we can all quit worrying about it. Fossil fuel is a problem that solves itself. It gradually gets more expensive and renewables get cheaper and everybody wins.
So everybody just relax already.

If only Phil Jackson hadn't asked for more time to think about his future after meeting with the Lakers' front office.
Then, he might be the Lakers' coach. Instead, general manager Mitch Kupchak called Jackson around midnight Sunday informing him the Lakers hired Mike D'Antoni.
With that, a point of contention emerged on exactly what arrangement vice president of player of personnel Jim Buss and Kupchak promised Jackson.
Kupchak described their meeting at Jackson's home on Saturday in Playa del Rey as a "basketball discussion" in the beginning stages of a new coaching search.
"Where are we now?" Kupchak asked.
"I need some more time," Jackson answered.
"How much more time?" Kupchak asked.
"I will get back to you on Monday," Jackson said.
Kupchak said he gave the former Lakers' Hall of Fame coach forewarning.
"I'm going to have to continue my search and interview candidates," Kupchak recalled saying. "He nodded that he understood."
The Lakers had a phone interview with D'Antoni later that day. Kupchak then had "multiple phone calls" with D'Antoni prior to the Lakers' victory Sunday against the Sacramento Kings. D'Antoni's recent knee-replacement surgery prevented him from flying to Los Angeles for an in-person interview.
Nonetheless, Kupchak said the Lakers decided to hire D'Antoni at 6 p.m., but negotiations and unexpected technical problems with faxing his contract to his New York City residence delayed the process until about 11:30 p.m. A half hour later, Kupchak then called Jackson with news he hadn't expected to hear. The Lakers signed D'Antoni to a three-year, $12 million deal, with a team option for the fourth season.
"He's always a little cryptic on the phone, but I did wake him up," Kupchak said. "Those kind of situations, there's not a lot of small talk. Without portraying too much conversations, we talked about the team a little bit and Mike D'Antoni. He was very complimentary of Mike under the circumstances."
Jackson wasn't complimentary toward the Lakers. Sources close to Jackson indicated his agent, Todd Musberger, planned to take a red-eye flight Monday morning to Los Angeles to talk further about the coaching job.
"We concluded with a handshake and an understanding that I would have until Monday to come back to them with my decision," Jackson said in a statement. "I did convey to them that I did have the confidence that I could do the job."
Kupchak viewed the meeting ending differently.
"Our feeling was there was no agreement to wait for his response on Monday," he said. "(Phil) told us that's when he'd get back to us. I can see where he might interpret that as, `You guys will wait for me.' But I thought when I said I had to go on and interview other candidates that it was clear we had a job to do."
Meanwhile, Kupchak knocked down several reports that suggested Jackson had made unaccommodating demands.
"There was no discussion of salary in the meeting," Kupchak said. "I don't know why there would be. A job wasn't offered and he didn't say he wanted the job. We touched briefly on personnel input, which he hoped he would have more input. We talked about the rigors of travel in the NBA. But there was no demand or in-depth discussion about missing games."
Still, Kupchak said the D'Antoni hire went beyond Jackson asking for more time.
Even though Jackson won five of his 11 NBA championships in two separate stints with the Lakers (1999-2004, 2005-2011), Kupchak sounded skeptical how well the team's newly constructed roster would learn his famed triangle offense
"I know the triangle," Kupchak said. "Obviously, I wasn't convinced."
Instead, Kupchak believed D'Antoni's offense would mesh well. He already coached Steve Nash, where he won two NBA MVP awards in his four seasons playing for D'Antoni in Phoenix. Dwight Howard and Pau Gasol are considered elite pick-and-roll players. Kobe Bryant, of course, always loves to score.
"We won't go through 16 or 19 seconds on the 24-second clock before you get a shot," he said. "I would hope our shot attempts go way up."
But what about the D'Antoni's reputation as a poor defensive coach?
"I know what his perceived deficiencies are," Kupchak said. "Mike D'Antoni never had Dwight Howard, Metta (World Peace) and another 7-footer Pau Gasol in the back (defensively)."
D'Antoni also hasn't won any NBA championships. Nor has he cemented a strong relationship with developing post players. That will have to change with Kupchak considering Howard "the cornerstone" of the Lakers' future.
There's also a larger element in play.
Kupchak said Dr. Jerry Buss remains nostalgic about restoring "Showtime" to the Lakers, even if it meant shying away from a coach with vast championship experience.
"There was a lot of pressure to seriously consider bringing Phil back," Kupchak said. "We sorted through the PR backlash and decided that we ultimately could withstand it."

1620s, "an opening of what was rolled up," from Latin evolutionem (nominative evolutio) "unrolling (of a book)," noun of action from evolvere (see evolve).
Used in various senses in medicine, mathematics, and general use, including "growth to maturity and development of an individual living thing" (1660s). Modern use in biology, of species, first attested 1832 by Scottish geologist Charles Lyell. Charles Darwin used the word only once, in the closing paragraph of "The Origin of Species" (1859), and preferred descent with modification, in part because evolution already had been used in the 18c. homunculus theory of embryological development (first proposed under this name by Bonnet, 1762), in part because it carried a sense of "progress" not found in Darwin's idea. But Victorian belief in progress prevailed (along with brevity), and Herbert Spencer and other biologists popularized evolution.
evolution ev·o·lu·tion (ěv'ə-lōō'shən, ē'və-)
A continuing process of change from one state or condition to another or from one form to another.
The theory that groups of organisms change with passage of time, mainly as a result of natural selection, so that descendants differ morphologically and physiologically from their ancestors.
Our Living Language : Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection assumed that tiny adaptations occur in organisms constantly over millions of years. Gradually, a new species develops that is distinct from its ancestors. In the 1970s, however, biologists Niles Eldridge and Stephen Jay Gould proposed that evolution by natural selection may not have been such a smooth and consistent process. Based on fossils from around the world that showed the abrupt appearance of new species, Eldridge and Gould suggested that evolution is better described through punctuated equilibrium. That is, for long periods of time species remain virtually unchanged, not even gradually adapting. They are in equilibrium, in balance with the environment. But when confronted with environmental challenges—sudden climate change, for example—organisms adapt quite quickly, perhaps in only a few thousand years. These active periods are punctuations, after which a new equilibrium exists and species remain stable until the next punctuation.
A theory first proposed in the nineteenth century by Charles Darwin, according to which the Earth's species have changed and diversified through time under the influence of natural selection. Life on Earth is thought to have evolved in three stages. First came chemical evolution, in which organic molecules were formed. This was followed by the development of single cells capable of reproducing themselves. This stage led to the development of complex organisms capable of sexual reproduction. Evolution is generally accepted as fact by scientists today, although debates continue over the precise mechanisms involved in the process. (See mutation, punctuated equilibrium, and creation science.)
Note: The first cell is thought to have been formed when the Earth was less than a billion years old.

Advice and help needed asap!!
Hi there.
I last had intercourse at the beginning of may and at the end, although I did have a period which started on the 8th June I have not had one since and I frequently feel sick and have headaches. Also every now an again I get slight sharp pains in my stomach. A few friends have said that I look to have put on a bit of weight and this is making me a little bit worried that I might be expecting. I'm just confused because of the time and the fact I have had a period since the deed happened..
Help please?
29th August 2013 05:37 AM #2
Dear jade_92,
I am sorry to read about your worries.
If you have a period after you have had sex then you cannot have conceived. The only way you could be pregnant is if the period you describe (starting on the 8th of June) was not actually a period and was bleeding in pregnancy. Did your period seem normal? Was it lighter than normal? In early pregnancy some women experience 'breakthrough bleeding' or 'implantation bleeding' around the time their period would have been due (but this is generally lighter than their period would have been).
Do you normally have regular periods?
The only way to tell for sure if you are pregnant or not is to take a pregnancy test. Home pregnancy tests work using a urine sample and are extremely reliable.
However, there are many other causes of a change in your periods besides pregnancy including stress, not eating enough and illness. In light of the symptoms you describe I think it would be wise to have yourself checked with your doctor.
Best wishes,
18th September 2013 05:56 AM #3
Hi Jade_92,
Just wondering how you are?
Hope all is well,
