What Is Community Resilience?
July 28, 2015 | Emergency Management Magazine
A lack of knowledge and indifference hampers disaster recovery. Why we keep repeating mistakes.
Fire, flood, famine, nuclear disaster — we've been through them all and more, and yet we so quickly forget. All but a few Americans, depending on which survey you read, remain stubbornly unprepared for the next disaster. Without preparedness, there can be no resiliency.
Insurer Allstate reports that 40 percent of Americans have thought about an evacuation plan, but just 8 percent have practiced an escape plan. Thirty percent say they'd take their chances and leave at the last minute in the face of a storm. More than half of parents say they've been directly impacted by disaster, according to Save the Children, yet 67 percent don't know about the emergency plan at their kids' schools, and 42 percent wouldn't know where to find their kids after an evacuation.
Certainly things are better today than they used to be. "Fifty years ago there were no flood maps. Anyone could do whatever they wanted on a flood plain," said Gene Whitney, a member of the Committee on Increasing National Resilience to Hazards and Disasters at the National Academy of Sciences/National Research Council. "Today communities are aware of the high-risk zones and they use those flood maps to guide their land-use decisions."
But not always and not very well. Poor planning on personal and civic levels impedes bounce back, stymieing a community's resilience when it's time to rebuild. Why is this so? It may be in our genes.
"It's hard-wired into us," said Robert Meyer, co-director of Wharton's Risk Management and Decision Processes Center at the University of Pennsylvania. For millennia humans survived by thinking about today's food, not tomorrow's storm clouds. "As human beings, we are prone to not thinking far enough into the future, and we are prone to not look too far into the past," Meyer said. "When in doubt, we just do what everybody else is doing."
Cash counts too, Whitney said. "Resilience and preparedness cost money, so when someone says they should harden their communications infrastructure to be more resilient to a disaster, people may not see that as a priority."
Why put immediate needs first on the fiscal chain? It's all about likelihood. "Disasters are probable-risk events," Whitney said. "What are the chances that this hurricane is going to destroy my house? What are the chances that this flood is going to destroy my house? Maybe we had a flood back in '88 and it did some damage, but people aren't going to worry about that now."
It's called denial, the thinking that, "It isn't going to happen to me, and if it does FEMA will swoop in like a golden eagle and fix it all." That's not a resilience plan.
But for emergency planners to overcome resiliency resistance, they should take a candid look at some of the community-level hurdles too, the structural factors that prevent whole populations from building resiliency plans.
Money comes first, as usual. "Who pays for the cost of recovery? It is a little unclear at the moment, and that is handicapping the development of strategies that will make us more resilient," said James O'Donnell, executive director of the Connecticut Institute for Resilience and Climate Adaptation.
He points to the current structure in which the federal government subsidizes flood insurance. It's a pricey endeavor, and O'Donnell argues that resilience would be better served if government weaned shore-dwellers off the teat. "If people actually had to pay the full cost of the insurance for the risk that they have, they might make smarter decisions." He said the private market for insurance should be allowed to participate in the coastal flood programs in a bigger way. And then people would change the trend of building bigger and bigger, closer and closer along the shoreline.
Would less government spending drive better resilience? It counters the usual logic — government should shore up the bulwarks — but it opens the door to new ways of thinking.
Working the numbers might also help emergency planners sidestep a persistent bugbear in the efforts to devise effective resiliency plans: Civic authorities can only demand so much, Meyer said. "As a society we'd rather have a situation where the government doesn't tell us how to live our lives."
It's not just a matter of preference, but also of fundamental liberties. "If I own my home, you as the government can't tell me to insure it," said Gerald Galloway, an engineering professor at the University of Maryland.
Still, there are some ways in which government can drive specific action, for example by withholding funds. Emergency planners can set specific standards for rebuilding after an event, and if builders fail to meet those standards, they become ineligible for government disaster relief.
"If people don't build back in a resilient way, the government simply says no," Galloway said. "There may be some pushback, but people are getting tired of seeing money poured down the drain, in this case the flood plain, unnecessarily."
Rules that impinge on property rights or individual liberties must be justified as being necessary in the protection of health and safety. That sets a high bar. Without a stick to wield to drive greater resilience, government must turn to the carrot.
Working together with government officials, emergency managers can help lay the groundwork for policies that not only penalize bad planning but, more often, also find ways to reward smart preparations.
While banks may require flood insurance, government cannot make such requirements. On the other hand, tax authorities could give a break to those who get insured voluntarily or they may give tax incentives to building companies that go the extra mile, said Sean Scott, author of the disaster handbook The Red Guide to Recovery.
Financial incentives — the carrot — can be helpful, but they aren't simple to utilize. Suppose the city or state opted to offer tax breaks to those who equipped their homes with additional fire protection measures. Who's going to drop by to confirm these measures have been implemented? Or will tax breaks be given on the honor system?
As the manager of all things financial, government can certainly manipulate the tax code and other tools to generate resilience incentives. As an additional measure to drive best practices, emergency planners can also look to education.
Whitney points to the simple practice of using the ring shank nail. It'll keep a roof tacked down even in a heavy wind, at no more cost than an ordinary nail, but some builders may not be familiar with it. Education may start here, with zoning officials and others distributing literature to inform builders of their options.
At the level of the individual and the family, much has already been said about the need for education and much has been done. High-risk communities have produced public service materials in various forms, informing people about the steps they might take to prepare for an event and to restart their communities afterward.
Such messaging might spell out how much water to keep on hand or which emergency routes to keep in mind. But there are other forms of education, less commonly addressed, that can have a big impact on a community's long-term ability to get up and running in the wake of a disaster.
Kids ought to learn this stuff in school, Galloway said. Even from a young age, children can be introduced to the basics of risk and response. "You can include that in the school curriculum, and then the first thing a child asks at home is, 'Mommy, why are we building in a swamp?'"
Along these same lines, the mayor can appoint every local child a deputy for water conservation during a drought. The initiative can teach them the basics of water management and pressure adults to keep water use within regulations.
In the era of Facebook and Twitter, planners need to look to social media as a potentially powerful means of broadening the public understanding. This will require a new approach. "You've got to be able to convey a compelling message quickly, in a way that they are going to digest it and act on," Scott said. "It's speed, it's entertainment, it's very concise snippets of information that answer precise questions. It's education as instant gratification. So far emergency planners are not even anywhere close."
Emergency planners also need to help people with definitions. As Hurricane Sandy loomed, authorities warned of a potential 14-foot storm surge. But the magnitude of that possibility wasn't understood by the general public.
For that matter, what do basic financial terms mean when it comes to planning for resiliency? "To me there is surprising ignorance over what property insurance is, why you would carry it and why it is priced the way it is," Meyer said. "People don't understand a lot of that. There is a total lack of education on risk and protection. Financial literacy is an acute problem."
This in turn feeds into another fundamental aspect of resiliency. While good policy and good education are essential, in the big picture "recovery is all about money," said Tamara Habib, co-founder of Firelily, a philanthropic effort to bridge the financial gap for communities in the wake of catastrophe.
"If you don't qualify for an insurance payout, you have to destroy your savings or take a high-interest loan. Think about the impact that has on your ability to spend in your community and support small business," she said. "There hasn't been much research into the connection of personal recovery and community recovery, but I think we'd find that the lack of financial assistance and knowledge significantly affects the ability of the whole community to recover."
The average American family has $3,800 in its savings account, while the average house fire costs more than $12,000 in repairs, according to Habib. "That's a significant financial gap to overcome," she said. "The largest source of financial assistance in the vast majority of cases is the American Red Cross, which is only able to provide an average of $550 per family of four. And yet we expect people to immediately repair and rebuild. The stats speak for themselves."
Firelily takes a novel approach to resilience as a sort of philanthropic Kickstarter that connects those in need with those looking to help victims rebuild. Such efforts likely won't solve the resiliency problem alone, but emergency planners should be aware that they have partners out there looking to achieve the same ends.
Complicating all these factors is that resilience itself is ill-defined. The term refers variously to the ability to weather the immediate crisis, the certainty with which the aftermath can be contained and the ability of the community to come back in the long term.
It's no surprise then that resiliency can sometimes present itself as a moving target. "It's not like one day the city council says, 'OK, we are done, the city is now resilient,'" Whitney said. "It is a matter of constant improvement."

The consequence of molecules ' absorbing light is the creation of transient excited states whose chemical and physical properties differ greatly from the original molecules. These new chemical species can fall apart, change to new structures, combine with each other or other molecules, or transfer electrons, hydrogen atoms, protons, or their electronic excitation energy to other molecules. Excited states are stronger acids and stronger reductants than the original ground states.

From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
MGMT are an Amazonian-Amish band, famed for their use of natural equipment and their abstinence from narcotics. They are best known for their smash hit "Kinetic Feel" which describes the joy of drinking water and eating organic produce which subsequently leads to the ability of being able to convert the carbohydrate energy into movement. In Europe, they are more famous for writing the original version of "Kids", which was later covered by Gary Glitter.
edit Oracular Spectacular
Their first album was a calamity wrapped in cardboard sold in only the grimmest branches of HMV and Fopp (Barnes and Noble, in the US, completely boycotted the album, meaning there were no US sales whatsoever). The album was released with the proviso that it only be sold to people who had a wanker rating of 7 out of 10 or higher - in London, sales topped 6 billion, whilst in Paris and Berlin the combined sales were close to a trillion. Consequently, the band became very rich and deserted their Amish traditions to dabble in the occult. During one Ouija board session, they spoke to Ronald Reagan, who told them their true calling was in the spoken word genre, focusing on political propaganda and criticisms of the diabolical musical, Rent. The band spent the next 12 years working on their in-depth critique of Rent and subsequently wrote an album entitled "Commiserations". Upon presentation to their record company, the two people from MGMT and the other people who for some reason hang around with them in photo shoots and on-stage, were met with heavy criticism from the record company executives. Upon being told the album was too pessimistic and not in-keeping with the global feeling of optimism and happiness that the 2008 financial success had brought to the world, they decided to scrap the album and work on something new.
edit Congratulations
Congratulations is frequently cited as the greatest album of all time. Whereas 'Oracular..' is cited as being a tiresome dredge of tribal dross, 'Congratulations' is seen as the real coming of age for the band. It marked a watershed for the band as they finally accepted the use of violins and guitars in their compositions. Bob Dylan has said that the album is "infinitely better than anything [he] could produce [himself] because [he is] a useless piece of toilet paper on the shoe of conformatism (sic)".
edit Where are they now?
MGMT are currently working on a third album entitled "These things my mother taught me", an epic video album consisting of 103 songs, each one a tribute to a specific recipe that their mothers taught them as children. The lead single "Eggs and Ham (Where I am)" was released on St. George's Day 2013 and entered the charts at number 0, a position which has never before been taken. The album has been lauded as "the next 'Bible'" and "the most important piece of anything ever". The release date is tomorrow.

Press release
September 11, 2014
Study maps 15 years of the planet's carbon dioxide emissions at local scales, every hour.
Project to provide independent, scientific accounting of CO2 emissions, planetwide
TEMPE, Ariz. – World leaders face multiple barriers in their efforts to reach agreement on greenhouse gas emission policies. And, according to Arizona State University researchers, without globally consistent, independent emissions assessments, climate agreements will remain burdened by errors, self-reporting, and the inability to verify emissions progress.
Now, an international research team led by ASU scientists has developed a new approach to estimate CO2 emissions from burning fossil fuels — one that provides crucial information to policymakers. Called the "Fossil Fuel Data Assimilation System" or FFDAS, this new system was used to quantify 15 years of CO2 emissions, every hour, for the entire planet — down to the city scale. Until now, scientists have estimated greenhouse gas emissions at courser scales or used less reliable techniques.
Researchers unveiled the new system in an article published Sept 10 in the Journal of Geophysical Research.
The FFDAS uses information from satellite feeds in addition to national fuel accounts and a new global database on power plants to create high-resolution planetary maps. These maps provide a scientific, independent assessment of the planet's greenhouse gas emissions — something policy-makers can use and the public can understand.
"With this system, we are taking a big step toward creating a global monitoring system for greenhouse gases, something that is needed as the world considers how best to meet greenhouse gas reductions," said Kevin Robert Gurney, lead investigator and associate professor in ASU's School of Life Sciences. "Now we can provide all countries with detailed information about their CO2 emissions and show that independent, scientific monitoring of greenhouse gases is possible."
The research team combined information from space-based "nighttime lights," a new population database, national statistics on fuel use, and a global database on power plants to create a CO2 emissions map broken down by hour, year and region.
"The accuracy of the FFDAS results is confirmed by independent, ground-based data in the United States," said Salvi Asefi-Najafabady, lead author of the report and postdoctoral researcher at ASU. "This makes us confident that the system is working well and can provide useable, policy-salient information."
"This is an incredibly helpful tool for national and international policymakers and the public to get a grasp of whether strategies to reduce greenhouse gases are effective," said Jennifer Morgan, Director of the Climate and Energy Program at World Resources Institute. "It serves as a complementary approach to current bottom-up accounting methodologies. No longer will there be a delay in understanding the latest GHG trends
The FFDAS showed surprising detail on global emissions before and after the Global Financial Crisis, with portions of the U.S., Europe and India recovering sooner and more dramatically. The multiyear results also showed the dramatic rise of CO2 emissions in China and South Asia. Hence, the sub-national details offer insights into economic activity at scales for which traditional economic data has been limited.
"It used to take years to assemble all the statistics on CO2 emissions", said Peter Rayner, lead investigator from the University of Melbourne, Australia. "With this system, once the satellite data is flowing we can update our emissions maps each year. It gives a quick check on efforts to limit climate change."
The research team includes ASU, University of Melbourne, Australia, NOAA's National Geophysical Data Center, Colorado State University and Purdue University. NASA funded the three-year FFDAS project.

Q: Has there been any improvement in the short sale process for Fannie Mae owned loans? Thanks, Dave C.
A: There have been some changes that I've recently discovered, so your timing is perfect. In October, I wrote about "Working Through a Homepath Short Sale." As a reminder, Homepath properties are homes that Fannie Mae has foreclosed on and is reselling. The problem: Before foreclosure, some of these homes were short sales that had prospective buyers trying to buy the homes at fair market value. Fannie Mae, however, often required much higher offers to accept the deals.
As of June 5, Fannie Mae, the nation's leading home loan provider, introduced a new tool for agents working on short sales. Once an offer has been accepted, Fannie Mae wants the listing agents to register the offer through its Homepath website, the link is homepathforshortsales.com.
The goal is to bring greater transparency to the process and so that agents [agents, right?] can work better with the mortgage servicer to get the deals closed. Agents also are encouraged to contact the mortgage provider early in the short sale process for help on pricing. This allows Fannie Mae to quietly back away from its previous policy.
In addition, Fannie Mae also created an escalation process. An escalation is when the short sale file must be reviewed by a manager due to an impasse between the agent and the assigned negotiator. Fannie Mae has closed more than 10,000 short sales since the it announced the escalation process in February. My company hasn't had to escalate a deal, so I can't tell you anything more about this process, beyond the fact that it exists.
In 2012 Fannie Mae posted its first profit since 2006. That has helped the agency's earnings rating with Congress improve somewhat, from being considered a "critical concern" to a "serious concern." The same report, however, noted that troubled assets are still at extremely high levels. There are some very positive signs in the economy right now but that information is something we shouldn't ignore. None of us know if there's going to be another policy change at Fannie Mae. Therefore, if you're considering doing a short sale, you may want to get to it, while their policy is tilted in your favor.
Chris Diaz is the founder of Charis Financial, Inc. He has more than 15 years experience in helping homeowners with mortgages and has closed hundreds of short sales over the last four years. His website is www.charisfinancialinc.com. Send your questions to firstname.lastname@example.com; please include "short-sales" in the subject line.

Ryder Cup Format
October 2, 2010 by staff
Ryder Cup Format, (AFP) – The American rookie Rickie Fowler showed signs of maturity for his age on Saturday as a holed putt on the 18th hole to halve his first Ryder Cup match in an experience he described as impressive.
The 21-year-old – who was one of four captain Corey Pavin selections "wild card" – was skilfully guided around the course by fellow veteran Jim Furyk European foursomes against duo Lee Westwood and PGA champion Martin Kaymer.
However, Fowler, in his brilliant record of seven wins in eight matches in the amateur version of the Ryder Cup, Walker Cup got the approval of Pavin showed real nerve not to throw himself completely when he and Furyk are forced to concede the fourth hole, when the mop-haired young man dropped the ball wrong.
"I basically dropped the ball wrong," said Fowler, who missed the opening fourballs.
"It was the same type of ball they had in my pocket and was laying in the mud."
Fowler – who is the first rookie U.S. Tour to play in the Ryder Cup – said he had been brilliant had been able to stay in the fight with the vast experience and Kaymer Westwood, who led for almost the entire match.
"It was awesome to have a look at a putt to halve the match on the last hole," said Fowler, who has had to comply with the more sober attire used here for the most striking costumes are usually placed in the tour.
"It was awesome to play with a guy like Jim.
"It's very good. It is obvious that we were down all day and have a chance to halve the match at the end was pretty impressive."
Furyk, who had just won 11 million dollars last week in the U.S., admitted it was a great result for the owners.
"It was good (get the midpoint)," said the 40-year-old who is still to beat Westwood in Ryder Cup.
"We were all game. The best that ever was, maybe even after the first hole, which fell almost all day and come back and get half was great for our team."
Pavin, however, not paired together for the third session of foursomes and fourballs two four, Fowler was in the fourballs with another veteran Phil Mickelson, who lost their first two matches and Kaymer played again, but this German time was associated with Ian Poulter.
Furyk played in the same format with Dustin Johnson and were drawn against Padraig Harrington and Ross Fisher; European partner comes from an impressive victory in the foursomes on Mickelson and Johnson.

Many Hollywood celebrities including award-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence, became victims to a hacker. After having personal pictures hacked and leaked on the internet, many celebrities remained shocked. The FBI is now a part of the investigation to track down the culprit to this heinous cyber crime.
The FBI representative commented, "The FBI is aware of the allegations concerning computer intrusions and the unlawful release of material involving high profile individuals, and is addressing the matter".
American actress Mary E.Winstead took to a popular social networking site as she posted, "To those of you looking at photos I took with my husband years ago in the privacy of our home, hope you feel great about yourselves."

|Mirumoto Kei
|Mirumoto Mareshi
|Mirumoto Shikei
Mirumoto Daimyo,
Dragon Clan Champion
Mirumoto Kei was a bushi, duelist, and tactician of the Dragon Clan. She became the Dragon Clan Champion in 1170.
Demeanor Edit
Kei was cool and even, her words calm and confident. [1] She found a friend in a cheerful Scorpion, Bayushi Saya. [2]
War of the Rich Frog Edit
In 1165 Kei as Rikugunshokan of the Dragon army was tasked by Togashi Satsu to intervene in the War of the Rich Frog. [1] The Emperor had commanded the Dragon Clan to end the fighting between the Unicorn and Lion forces. [3] The Crab stood neutral, being the Lion and the Unicorn both allies of the Crab. [4]
Parleying with the Lion Edit
Kei attempted to reason with both parties at first, an unsuccessful endeavor that ended up with her being challenged to a duel by Akodo Tsuri, yojimbo of Ikoma Kyuso. She killed Kyuso, and took the head of his charge after the duel, avoiding him to live with dishonor. [1] Rather than forcing Lion and Unicorn to negotiate, the arrival of a third army merely added to the scale of the conflict. [5]
Scorpion Intervention Edit
Bayushi Paneki, Shireikan of the First Legion, arrived to Kei's camp and requested the Dragon Imperial Legions to halt their intervention in the war. Kei could not let it, being the Emperor's will. Paneki offered himself to fight alongside his Legionnaire kinsmen, but Kei refused as well. [6]
Kei's advisors Edit
Kei had a seasoned scout, Mirumoto Arai, trained in Unicorn lands by Shinjo Scouts, Mirumoto Takeo, an Emerald Magistrate, and Hitomi Kichi, a tattooed monk, as their advisors for the campaing. [7]
Fighting both Sides Edit
Kei managed to prove a great nuisance to both sides. The White Guard led by Moto Taidjut engaged the Dragon in combat, but were defeated and Kei killed Taidjut in a duel. Kei in return crushed the Baraunghar advance guard when three Unicorn divisions were ambushed by Mirumoto Kei's forces, and their leaders Shinjo Rao and Utaku Xiulian killed. [7] [8]
Unicorn Retribution Edit
Moto Chagatai ordered Shinjo Shono to find Mirumoto Kei and her armies, weakened by the previous fight, and kill them all. [8] Shono with overwhelming numbers routed Kei's army inside a canyon. [9] Kei was cornered out of retreat, with no hope for survival. Only the arrival of Paneki, who bargained with Shono let the Dragon forces to see a new day. The Unicorn escorted the Imperial Legions to Dragon lands, while Kei had been confirmed Dragon's duty to the Emperor was complete, enabling her to withdraw. In the end the Dragon forces were not enough to prevent the two other clans from fighting. [10]
Aftermath Edit
The Dragon Clan proved themselves worthy of the Emperor's trust, but there were those who said Kei succees during the War was a farce, because she could not defeat a foe whose forces were not divided along two fronts. Kei despised such comments. [11]
War of Silk and Steel Edit
Kosaten Shiro destroyed Edit
In 1167 Mareshi led a small force of Dragon samurai and sacked Kosaten Shiro to release several Dragon magistrate captives, including Mirumoto Narumi. [12] They had been unlawfully detained by the acting lord of the castle Asahina Keitaro while investigating the use of gaijin pepper. [13] The Dragon struck and fled, and a series of explosions inflicted a severe damage in the castle structure. [14] Mareshi explained Kei that the burning of the city was inevitable considering the task upon which he was sent by Togashi Satsu, though the details of that task remain unclear. [12] It was the start of the crane involvement in the War of Silk and Steel. [15]
Lion engages Edit
The Dragon army pulled his forces back to the southern Dragon Heart Plain to await further orders. [16] Akodo Shigetoshi took personal command of the northern border [17] cutting the Kei and her forces off from the Dragon lands. Shigetoshi halted re-supply attempts, but the Dragon allies in Nanashi Mura kept the Dragon supplied for the time being. [16] The blockade was eliminated when the Lion prompted against a attack in the Lion southern provinces. The Dragon moved to Kitsuki provinces [18] and pushed the Crane back across Dragonfly River, but could not maintain the lands south of Shiro Kitsuki [19] when Akodo Shigetoshi arrived to reinforce the Crane. The Dragon were unable to withstand the two-pronged attack and fell back to Shiro Kitsuki. [20] [21]
Marriage and Daimyo Edit
In 1168 died the Mirumoto Daimyo, Mirumoto Rosanjin. Mirumoto Mareshi was appointed as his succesor but he eschewed such responsibility, and negotiated a marriage to the much more capable Mirumoto Kei. [22] She was married to Mareshi and ruled the Mirumoto family jointly with him. When Mareshi and Kei are both away from Shiro Mirumoto the administration of the castle falls to Mirumoto Hojatsu or Mirumoto Bokkai. [23] Mareshi decided his wife would be assuming the responsibilities of daimyo once the War of Silk and Steel concluded. [24] It was not a marriage of love. [25]
Naga Visit Edit
The same day of his wedding the naga Constrictor Qolsa accompanied by Zamalash arrived to Shiro Mirumoto guided by Mirumoto Taikishi. The Naga requested to Mareshi to guard the Shinomen Mori with his Dragon warriors, but Mareshi was obliged to refuse. He had new duties to fulfill as Daimyo and the war against the Lion and Crane. The Unicorn had refused to increase their numbers to keep safe the naga sleep, and it was seen by Kei as an omen of a new conflict with the Khan. [24]
Yogen Edit
After the Battle of Toshi Ranbo in 1169 and the end of the War of Silk and Steel Satsu announced the unification the three families in the Togashi family, and began tattooing the members of the Hoshi and Hitomi with his own blood in an attempt to restore the balance. Satsu bestowed Yogen, the Lotus Sword of the Dragon, upon Kei, to enhance the military prowess of the Mirumoto Daimyo. [26] [27]
Lion march to Shiro Moto Edit
The Lion began the march to shiro Moto, to fulfill Matsu Yoshino's vow to take Shiro Moto one year after the Khan's assault to the capital. Kei confirmed to the Unicorn ambassador Ide Eien the Dragon did not side with the Lion, nor would they protect the Unicorn. The Dragon would not intervene in this war. [28]
Dark Oracles Edit
Mareshi and Kei were both called away to meet with Togashi Satsu about whether the Dragon Clan should assist the Phoenix Clan in attacking the Dark Oracles or not. They reasoned that, as the Oracles had distanced themselves from Ningen-do, a Dark Oracle who was slain should not be replaced. Kei argued strongly that the Dark Oracles were a great evil that should be eradicated but Togashi Satsu was not willing to send Dragon troops outside of Rokugan. Satsu was less and less decisive in the Dragon actions, when his power of foresight had became a burden. He hesitated to take an action without knowing with absolute confidence of the consequences. [29]
Dragon ambassador at Medinaat al-Salaam Edit
Mareshi brought a scroll with the Scorpion Clan Champion Bayushi Paneki opinions about the best suited Dragon ambassador at Medinaat al-Salaam, a position requested by its Caliph. Satsu again decided to be apart and passed the decision over his Daimyos. [29]
Yobanjin attacks Edit
Mareshi told Kei the Northern Towers of Flame suffered three assaults in one month from Yobanjin minions of the Dark Oracle of Fire, Chosai. The Dark Oracle set his men on fire without killing them, and used them for suicide attacks. [30]
Celestial Tournament Edit
In 1170 Kei trained in the Nightingale Dojo to be prepared for the Celestial Tournament, and she defeated Bayushi Kosugi. [31] The tournament was won by Kitsuki Iweko, who became the divine Empress Iweko I. [32]
Dragon Clan Champion Edit
Following the coronation of Iweko, Togashi Satsu was made the Voice of the Emperor. Satsu passed the championship of the Dragon Clan to Kei. It was the twenty-first day of the Month of the Dog, year 1170. [25] Kei returned to Dragon territory making a tour through each of the clan's ancestral holdings accompanied by Tamori Shimura, who was appointed as the new Tamori Daimyo. [33]
War of Dark Fire Edit
News of a massive yobanjin army wielding some unknown form of fire magic arrived winter court at Kyuden Bayushi. Before Shogun's forces had time to be redeployed the Northern Towers of Flame had been overrun and the Dragon territory assaulted. The Month of the Tiger of 1170 marked the beginning of the War of Dark Fire. [34]
High House of Light destroyed Edit
Kei commanding her army arrived at the High House of Light, which had been besieged by the Army of Fire. The invaders were driven back but almost all defenders were wounded or died. She put the castle to the torch denying it as Yobanjin's shelter. [35]
Chasing the invaders Edit
The Yobanjin struck and moved quickly, fleeing any time that Kei's army drew closer. [36]
Shiro Mirumoto sieged Edit
In 1171 Kei returned for a brief rest in the castle, but before they left the bulk of the Army of Fire arrived and laid siege. The walls were breached and Kei, seeing the defence was not an option, led a countercharge to push the Yobanjin back outside the castle walls, [37] driving off the invaders. The victory in the Battle of Shiro Mirumoto was short lived, as instead of retreating, the invaders went around Shiro Mirumoto and assaulted Shiro Tamori instead. The Lion reinforcements led by Akodo Shigetoshi arrived few days later, and moved on following the raiders. [38] Several Lion phalanx were sent to defend Tetsu Kama Mura. [39]
End of the War Edit
Kei fought in the Battle of Dragon Heart Plain, were the minions of Chosai were outmaneuvered by the armies of the Lion, Crab, Dragon, and Phoenix, as well as the cavalry forces of the Shogun. [40]
Togashi order sent to teach the Empire Edit
As part of the rebuilding process after the War was ended, Kei announced she would send the Order of Togashi out into the Empire, to teach. Monks could go where they will, and speak to both peasant and daimyo. [41]
Destroyer War Edit
Army of Fire returns Edit
After the festival held in the Imperial City Kei accompanied Satsu's wife, Togashi Misuko, back to a safe place in Dragon lands so that Misuko could give birth while Satsu attended the Empress's Winter Court at Kyuden Gotei. Their journey was interrupted by the return of the Army of Fire and they were forced to take a path through the Northern Wall Mountains. Togashi Kanmu was sent back to Toshi Ranbo to tell of the yobanjin, and Kei discovered she was with child. [42]
Empress' audience: renewed Charters Edit
In 1172 Mareshi attended the Empress' audience representing his wife, where the Great Clans were given new Imperial Charters. The Dragon should lead the defense of the north, bolstered by the forces of the Minor Clans situated there, and the military might of the Shiba family. [43]
Child Edit
Mirumoto Kei sequestered her at Jousai Tengai to have her child, [44] and her son was born in a vault deep inside the fortress. [45] The Army of Fire harassed the area, and Mirumoto Kenzo bought her enough time to recover and for reinforcements to arrive. [46]
End of the Destroyer War Edit
In 1173 Daigotsu, Shahai, Susumu, Fu Leng, and Kali-Ma had died. The drawback was that Daigotsu had returned in a phantom form, as the Master of Jigoku. The Empress proclaimed the end of the Destroyer War with the victory of the Empire. The Spider Clan had been conferred the status of Great Clan. Those free of taint could remain in the Empire, and the tainted were put under guard of the Dragon Clan, to extend the Empire in the Ivory Kingdoms as the Iweko's Conquerors. As a part of the agreement with Daigotsu, the taint would be withhold over the humans and the Rokugani would be spared the taint forever. [47]
Teaching the Spider Edit
Kei gave the primary responsibility of watching over the newest Great Clan to the Togashi family. They would not just be to ensure the Spider work in the best interest of Rokugan, but also to teach them. The Dragon would not only ensure that they changed their ways, but they would make them want to do so. Togashi Maya, Togashi Ieshige and the Jade Mirror would be instrumental in this task. [48]
Shikei betrothal Edit
Moto Naleesh, only months past gempukku moved to Dragon lands alongside with her father the Unicorn Clan Champion Moto Chen. The Khan made an arrangement with them and proposed a marriage to honor it. Naleesh was wandering out of the castle where she met Kei's son, and future Dragon Champion, [49] Mirumoto Shikei. [50] Shikei did not know that he had been betrothed to her.

Didn't that look familiar?
The Dodgers' miserable hitting slump continued in a 3-1 loss to the Washington Nationals in the first game of a doubleheader in D.C. on Wednesday.
The Good:
Santa Cruz. At times, it seems like there's only one hitter not gripping the bat so tightly that it might turn to sawdust. That player is Luis "Cochito" Cruz, whose gift is again providing the only sign of life in this lineup. Maybe that's because he doesn't feel as much pressure as more established players. He doubled in back-to-back at-bats off Jordan Zimmermann, while the rest of the order was going down quietly. If nothing else, the Dodgers might have learned they don't have to spend money in the free-agent market this winter searching for a third baseman.
Solid start. Manager Don Mattingly used 10 pitchers in Sunday's extra-inning game, setting a franchise record. On Wednesday, he pulled Aaron Harang with one out in the fifth inning, even though Harang had been working hard to stay out of trouble. Mattingly is managing games right now as if every one of them were the seventh game of the World Series, which tells you the state of this team. It's not Harang's fault that Mattingly came and got him so soon. Harang managed to keep the Dodgers in the game despite allowing seven hits and two walks in a relatively short outing. Again, the pitching hasn't been the problem.
Relief pitching. The Dodgers' bullpen isn't responsible for this loss any more than John Ely is responsible for that extra-inning loss at home on Sunday. When you don't score, even the tiniest blip from your bullpen is going to be exposed. These relievers aren't making many mistakes, but they're being exposed. Shawn Tolleson gave up a run, but the bullpen went 3 2/3 innings allowing just three hits, not bad work.
The Bad:
Not-so-big bats. The most distressing part of this slump is that it's the Dodgers' key hitters who are doing the most -- or is that the least? -- damage. In the seventh inning, the Dodgers had a runner at third with one out. Andre Ethier struck out, Matt Kemp walked and Adrian Gonzalez struck out. In the ninth, the Dodgers got another runner on and Ethier and Kemp made outs. It's almost as if the Dodgers have to get through the middle of their lineup before they can think about scoring runs.
Pressure cooker. The Dodgers are at their worst in clutch situations right now. They went 1-for-15 with runners in scoring position Wednesday. In their previous "can't lose" road series, in San Francisco, they went 1-for-23 with RISP. The Dodgers are not hitting home runs, they're not moving runners over, and they're not coming up with clutch hits. That's a trifecta of ways to not score.
Ellis' island. For most of this season, catcher A.J. Ellis has been the other pleasant surprise to go with Cruz. The Dodgers didn't know what they would get out of him offensively, so his first five months were a boon. His patience, at times, stands out in a hack-away lineup. But lately, Ellis has joined everybody else in the cold-case files. He might have just grown tired from all those consecutive starts, but Ellis hasn't gotten a hit in 19 straight at-bats. That's awhile.

I don't know how long it's been since Max Schutler filmed porn. He might have just slipped away without making a big retirement announcement, which is probably smarter since almost all gay pornstars unretire as least once. He last filmed with Lucas Entertainment in 2010, but only did three scenes with the studio. Last week he returned to join "Rocco Steele's Breeding Party," which started off with five guys, then swelled to nine in the second part. A couple of guys left and Max Shutler joins in, bringing Leo Alexander and his foot-long dick to the party.
After 20 minutes of blowjob action, Leo Alexander, Joey Pele and Rocco Steele pick their bottoms and fuck them in the middle of the floor. Leo is putting a smile on Raul Korso's face, Joey is fucking Max Toro, and for his bareback debut, Max Schutler is the first one to take Rocco Steele's monster cock in this last part of "Rocco Steele's Breeding Party." One of the others is sitting on the sofa watching and another is feeding his dick down Toro's throat.
And Steele comes back to Schutler's ass a couple of times, but Max gets fucked by a couple of the others too. He also ends up on the floor, jacking his dick with the other men kneeling around him and urging him on. He finally covers his belly with jizz, then Rocco retires to the sofa and Leo sits on his dick with his own monster hanging heavily between his legs. What a sight! This final episode in Rocco's gang bang is almost an hour long, but the whole series is over two hours. And I have no idea how many cum loads were fired off, it'd be fun to go back and count. Let me know if any of you end up doing the count.

BMW of North America has notified government officials today of two recalls for potential fuel pump failures.
BMW said it will recall about 130,000 of its 2007-2010 vehicles with the twin-turbo inline six-cylinder engines for potential failure of their high-pressure fuel pump. Separately, it will recall about 20,800 of its 2008 X5 crossovers with the normally-aspirated inline six to replace the low-pressure fuel pump.
The recalls came the same day an ABC News morning report aired (video above) charging that the company has dragged its feet on a fuel pump recall despite years of owner complaints to the company and government regulators. The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration conducted a preliminary investigation in 2008, ABC reported, BMW argued it was not a safety defect. The probe was closed without a finding.
Also today, Consumer Reports noted in presentating highlights from its latest reliability survey (see post below): "BMW takes a big hit -- turbocharged engines in the 1, 3 and 5 series caused a drop in reliability – fuel system failures."
The company said symptoms indicating a problem with the twin-turbo's fuel pump include: "long-crank engine starting times along with the illumination of the "Service Engine Soon" light. In certain cases, the driver may experience reduced engine performance in a Safe Mode accompanied by a tone and the illumination of the "Engine Malfunction" light."
It said that in some cases the high-pressure fuel pump issue can be fixed with a software update, but that 40,000 vehicles are expected to need a pump. Affected models:
Symptoms of the 2008 X5 problem are more dramatic. According to BMW: "Should the fuel pump experience a failure, the engine will stop running and the driver will lose power assist for the steering and brakes although both the steering and the brakes remain operational."
The company said no injuries have been reported with either pump problem
Unusually, BMW of North America's chief engineer Tom Baloga conceded about the recall:
Questions from ABC News "caused us to decide to take action sooner, rather than later."
As to the frightened reaction of owners interviewed to ABC to their cars going into "safe mode," Baloga said: "When that high-pressure pump on the engine fails, the vehicle goes into what we call a safe mode, which means that you have power steering, power brakes but you don't have as much power and that can be startling for some people." He said "it's unfortunate that the failure of the pump caused that feeling and we certainly can sympathize with that. People have different expectations."
As it got more complaints, ABC reported, BMW sent a letter to owners of the vehicles alerting them that the fuel pump could cause performance issues. While it did not recall, after developing a fixed pump last March, it let get a new pump if the old one failed.
When asked why it did not call them all in for a replacement, Baloga said, "We don't want to alarm people ..." and added, "We did take action to notify people. We probably can be better in the future with our communication and we'll take a look at that."
Owners can direct more questions to BMW Customer Relations at 1-800-563-4269 or email email@example.com.

Elsa Patton Collapses at The Real Housewives of Miami Premiere Party (Video)
See The Real Housewives of Miami's Season Two Trailer.
Get ready for a pretty epic mental picture: It was a beautiful Miami night. A tad steamy, but breezy, and the sunset was upon us at The Forge in Miami Beach. Just when you thought the evening couldn't feel any more like Miami, the Real Housewives of Miami began to arrive in droves for their premiere party.
At first, things went exactly as planned: The ladies smiling for the cameras and talking trash behind each others' backs, all to promote the season two premiere on Thursday, September 13. We even talked to the show's most entertaining star, Elsa Patton, who encouraged us to stay single and steal jewelry. But Mama Patton's high spirits didn't last throughout the party. Once inside, her daughter and co-star Marysol Patton told us, Elsa collapsed to the floor.
At first, all was going fine. Sure, it felt like the Sahara Desert in there, but drinks were flowing, wives were mingling, and Elsa was getting all the attention she deserves. So when she collapsed to the floor, all took notice. What happened? None of us knew. So we called Marysol Patton this morning to get to find out.

"There were a couple of things that happened," she told Cultist. "She hadn't really eaten all day, and wasn't feeling good to begin with. When we arrived, she was a little nervous because she has never walked a red carpet before. Once inside, she was swarmed by people. Then, plus the fact it was so hot, we were all suffocating. Then all of a sudden, she just collapsed. She is getting older; it happens."
No need to worry: Mama Elsa is back in action: "Don't worry, mom is fine," Marysol says. "We went to the hospital right after it happened and got home around 3 a.m."
It's official: reality TV's most recognizable mother is completely OK. So you can watch our interview with the lady herself without worry, grief, or guilt.

It's startling how Billy Collins pierces through the verbosity of prose to the core of an emotion. Since I discovered "The Lanyard," poems like "Old Man Eating Alone in a Chinese Restaurant" and his new work "Cheerios" and "To My Favorite 17-Year-Old High School Girl" from Aimless Love have found their way into my scrapbook. "My Hero," below, made me smile with its twist on perspective.
Just as the hare is zipping across the finish line,
the tortoise has stopped once again
by the roadside,
this time to stick out his neck
and nibble a bit of sweet grass,
unlike the previous time
when he was distracted
by a bee humming in the heart of a wildflower.

Biology - A Promising Career of the FutureBY: Maitree Baral | Category: Careers | Submitted: 2013-05-21 05:43:51
Article Summary: "Today Biology as a career has surpassed its conventional fields of Physicians, Dentists, Teachers, Botanists, Zoologists and plain laboratory technicians to the highly intriguing modern fields of Biochemistry, Bioengineering, Bioinformatics, Genomics, Forensic Sciences, Molecular Ecology, along with rejuvenating the conventional.."
The quest to understand life and life processes has fascinated mankind since time immemorial. The day man learned to trust his senses there have been significant questions in his mind starting from his origin. These unsolved mysterious questions led to the emergence of a new branch of science called Biology, which literally means "the study of life" and it has been a subject of wide variety of research since its inception. Thus biology as a career proves to be an interesting challenge to the individual who are always in a quest to find answers to the mysteries of a better life on Earth.
Students taking up Biology as a subject during their school and college career can aspire beyond the conventional degree of MBBS which was perceived as the only means of sustenance until a few years ago. Today Biology as a career has surpassed its conventional fields of Physicians, Dentists, Teachers, Botanists, Zoologists and plain laboratory technicians to the highly intriguing modern fields of Biochemistry, Bioengineering, Bioinformatics, Genomics, Forensic Sciences, Molecular Ecology, along with rejuvenating the conventional fields of Microbiology, Pharmacology, Anthropology, Meteorology and Horticulturist. Such is the prospect associated with research and development in the field of biology that pharmaceutical and engineering companies collaborate and invest huge sums of money in this lucrative sector.
The unraveling of the human chromosomal puzzle by the Human Genome Project which initiated in 1998 and got completed in 2003 has opened new avenues in the field of Molecular Medicine and has thrown light for a better understanding of the different aspects and phenomenon involved in human evolution. Thanks to the combined efforts of Geneticists, Bioengineers and Molecular Biologists; development of new drugs with greater efficacy, search for newer vaccines for incurable diseases like AIDS and cancer has progressed by leaps and bounds thus garnering the interests of the intellectual as well as the business strata of the society. Through collaborations between prospective fields like Bioengineering, Medicine and pharmacology research is now being undertaken to develop new procedures to deliver drugs for treatment of specific parts of the body in order to ensure faster recovery of patients without the requirement of any major surgery.
Biomechanics has a huge potential in the development of prosthetics or orthotics and thus enabling the physically deformed or challenged people carry out their normal day-to-day activities with much ease. Students can choose the Agricultural Science & Genetic Engineering as a means to solve as well as eradicate the problem of hunger which affects nearly half the human population, by creating hybrid and genetically safe crops. This subsequently creates another career front; the requirement of Biological Quality Standard Experts and Food Inspectors who asses the quality of a variety of food products which are being released into the market and to ensure that the public is spared from spurious drugs permeating out ecosystem today.
With the increase in awareness about pollution and increasing population the Ecologists have gained profound importance in today's society trying to maintain a balance between man and his environment constituting plants and animals. Thus Botanists & Zoologists collaborate to make this earth a better place to live in. Students having an interest for Biology as well as photography can undertake Wildlife Photography as a career option.
A keen acumen for the law and an interest; answering the questions relating to crime by using the tools of biology and making the dead talk, warrants a student of biology to undertake Forensic Medicine as his preferred occupation. This is a highly emerging field which is very promising for a student wishing for an adventurous life with the tools of biology.
The increasing radiation levels in world today! It is due to the variety of wireless devices necessitates the need of a Radiologist who is again a student of biology. By implementing safety standards in nuclear plants, using radio diagnostic techniques for therapeutic purposes they can benefit the medical and research sector jointly.
The ultimate aim of a student choosing Biology as a career thus encompasses means to improve the quality of life on the face of our Earth. The options before him are endless and the fruits of labor are always sweet. Thus in order to preserve life we must first learn the secrets of life through the indispensable tool called Biology.

OMG! things you Shouldn't carry in your WALLET
10 Things You Should Never Keep in Your Wallet
A person tends to carry around important documents and information in his or her wallet. Unfortunately, the more one carries in a wallet, the more at-risk the person is of misplacing valuable and expensive items or having important documents stolen, both of which can lead to identity fraud. For those who want to reduce their risk of suffering loss, theft, or fraud, there are a few things they can do to keep themselves safe should the worst ever happen. By adhering to the following list of 10 things a person should never keep in a wallet, a person can help to greatly reduce the risk of turning a bad situation into a disastrous situation.
There are numerous products available designed to help people keep their wallet and important documents safe and protected. Many travel shops, department stores, and luggage stores sell a range of wallets, purses, and other items people can use instead of carrying everything in the one wallet. eBay also has a range of useful products to choose from.
1. Social Security Card
People tend to carry their social security card in their wallet out of habit, not because they actually use it regularly. Most of the time people don't need this extra form of ID, and many people actually remember their nine digit number by heart anyway. With a stolen social security card, a thief is able to buy a car, open a bank account, or take out a loan or mortgage, all in the card owner's name. A social security card should only be kept in a wallet when the user knows he or she will specifically require it.
2. Passport
A passport is one of the easiest ways to steal someone's identity. A passport is actually very rarely required, and most people have ample ID in their wallet, including a driver's license. When traveling, a passport should always be left in the hotel safe and never taken unless specifically required for traveling purposes. When at home, a passport should be kept in a safe place and one should always have a photocopy, especially when on vacation. When traveling, there are some very useful passport wallets designed to hold passports and important travel documents. This is the best place to store a passport while on vacation or at home.
3. Checkbook
A checkbook has a person's bank account number, routing number, and address. There is also the possibility that a person's signature is imprinted on the check. A thief can begin writing out checks immediately, likely before the owner even realizes the checkbook is missing. The best way to carry checks in a wallet is one at a time. Ideally, the check should not be left blank, but filled in as much as possible.
4. Passwords and PINs
Passwords and PINs should never be written down and left in a wallet, and this includes a home security alarm code. Writing these down will allow a thief quick and easy access to one's personal life. For those who simply cannot remember regularly used passwords and PINs, keep these in a password-protected cell phone.

The Hicks-In-Suits Hatefest continues in the General Assembly. The House of Representatives passed the anti-gay-marriage amendment yesterday, sending it to the Senate, where passage is not certain. If the amendment passes the Senate, N.C. voters will decide in the May 2012 primary election whether to add the amendment to the state constitution. The Senate is expected to debate the amendment today.
If you follow Boomer with Attitude, you know we are strongly opposed to this shameful, blatantly and deliberately discriminatory amendment. If you have time today and tomorrow, please consider contacting Mecklenburg's Democratic state senators. The amendment can't be passed without some Democrats going along with the GOP, so a reminder of their constituents' feelings on the issue could make a difference. This state has made a lot of progress in the past two or three decades in terms of education and playing cultural catch-up with the modern world. Let's not let N.C. slide back into the Jesse Helms-ish, ignorant-and-proud-of-it mire of our past history. Here are our county's Democratic state senators, and their contact information:
Malcolm Graham (919) 733-5650 email@example.com
Charlie Dannelly (919) 733-5955 email@example.com
Daniel G. Clodfelter (919) 715-8331 email@example.com
