WASHINGTON — Over the course of two days, the fruit and vegetable growers and industry executives with United Fresh Produce Association who came to Washington to lobby on immigration reform and other issues experienced the expiration of the farm bill and the government shutdown.
They also booed a congressman who told them he did not think immigration reform would pass and heard a series of government officials tell them that if they want to accomplish anything they are going to have to keep pressing Congress and the Obama administration at least as hard as they have in the past.
The expiration of the farm bill had little impact on the industry except that the Agriculture Department will lose authority to promote U.S. agricultural products overseas.
But the shutdown caused the Food and Drug Administration to stop inspection of fruits and vegetables and other food under its jurisdiction and to cancel a briefing on the Food Safety Modernization Act and a speech by Michael Taylor, the FDA deputy commissioner for food.
In addition, Sam Kass, the deputy White House chef who heads First Lady Michelle Obama's Let's Move campaign against childhood obesity, was furloughed and had to cancel a luncheon speech that had been in the works for three years. Fresh Festival, the group's event at which they try to show members of Congress and their staffs what they produce, had to be moved from a Capitol Hill cafeteria to a hotel.
"Have you had enough of this?" Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack asked the group before telling them it is their patriotic dusty to speak frankly to members of Congress. "It shouldn't be just polite conversation, " Vilsack said. "As patriots you have a responsibility to knock some sense into folks up there."
Stabenow, after noting all the progress the industry has made in getting proper consideration in the farm bills since 1996, said, "I hope you will go forward and express that we need to get back to governing and we need to get things done."
Vilsack and Stabenow delivered the same message: tell the House to end the shutdown and pass a farm bill and immigration reform.
United Fresh President Tom Stenzel took up the message. As he sent the attendees to lobby House members, Stenzel said, "It's time for us to be patriots." Stenzel urged them to try to get members and staff to focus on immigration reform, but warned them "to be prepared for a different type of feel" than in previous years.
The United Fresh members did the best they could, but some House offices canceled their meetings and all the Senate meetings were canceled.
Back at the hotel, a series of House members gave varying reports on what to expect on immigration reform, the growers' key issue.
I do not believe there will be a comprehensive immigration bill passed this year," said Rep. Austin Scott, R-Ga., the chairman of the House Agriculture Horticulture, Research, Biotechnology and Foreign Subcommittee.
Describing himself as a conservative who is "one generation from the trailer park," Scott explained that he doesn't think President Barack Obama will support an immigration reform bill that doesn't include a path to citizenship, and that the House won't pass a bill that includes it.
Scott also said he does not believe most immigrants want to become American citizens.
After some members of the audience booed, Scott said, "I heard the boos out there, I understand how important it is out there. I want a solution too."
Later, in an interview said Steve Scaroni, a Heber, Calif.-based grower and packager of lettuce, told the Capital Press, "I'm not giving another dime to Republicans until this immigration thing is fixed."
During the meeting, the House sent the combined farm and nutrition bills to the Senate, and the Senate asked for a conference, paving the way for the House to appoint conferees.
Rep. Kurt Schrader, D-Ore., the highest ranking Democrat on the horticulture subcommittee, said he is "actually optimistic" that the farm bill could be a path for members of the House "learning to work together again."
But on the immigration issue, Schrader and Rep. Jeff Denham, R-Calif., both said the public has to exert more pressure for immigration reform.
Members of United Fresh "who earn their living on the land" need to "be in the papers back home" speaking out on issues and defending members who vote for issues they care about, Schrader said.
But a big problem, Denham said, is that so many Republican House members live in districts with less than 1 percent Hispanic population.
"We have to get to those members," he said. "I am encouraging the faith-based community to go out to every district. We have to get them to focus."
Most bills that come up in Congress have deadlines, Denham added, but immigration reform does not. The House leadership has "slotted" immigration reform for this fall, he said, "but I guarantee if there is another Syria, another issue, it will get pushed into next year."
Denham told the group, "Thank you for being here, but keep it up. If we are not the loudest group around here in Washington, D.C., it will not get done this year."

Premier Biomedical Announces Potential Therapy for Currently Untreatable Neurofibromatosis
Jan 09, 2013, 08:10 ET
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., Jan. 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Premier Biomedical, Inc. (OTC-BB: BIEI) today announced a proposed novel therapy for the treatment of the currently untreatable neurological condition Neurofibromatosis. The key to this breakthrough is the targeted application of the Felder Doctrine™, which calls for "physically removing the pathophysiologic basis of the disease."
The painful and often fatal disease Neurofibromatosis, which is characterized by the growth of tumors around nerves, appears in three classifications, with type 1 Neurofibromatosis affecting about 1 in 3,500 individuals worldwide. By processing the blood feeding the neurofibromas and by physically removing inflammatory cytokines and other molecular compounds responsible for the etiology of the disease, Premier Biomedical's Chairman of the Scientific Advisory Board Mitchell S. Felder, M.D., a board certified attending neurologist, believes that it is possible to stop the progression of the disease.
Premier Biomedical's CEO William A. Hartman emphasized, "At present, this is a hopeless disease, and to date, there has not been even a possibility of treatment. By applying for a provisional patent application, we are making the first step in our attempt to beat Neurofibromatosis. This potential breakthrough follows our other recent successes in applying the Felder Doctrine to cancer, clinical depression and suicidal ideation."
The news of this announcement follows Premier Biomedicals other recent applications of the Felder Doctrine, which include: killing a cancer tumor in a test tube within 24 hours by simply processing its environment, removing a specified cancer-related Interleukin from a heterogeneous mixture at a picogram (trillionth of a gram) level of accuracy, and successfully removing the majority of target antigens associated with clinical depression and suicidal ideation from a heterogeneous mixture, also at a picogram level of accuracy.

Cabin Chic: A Contemporary Spin On Country Living
There are some gorgeous cabins out there that have thrown away the traditional cabin kitsch aesthetic and embraced a more modern look. They still emanate that warm, inviting, let's snuggle up with a blanket, a book and go roast marshmallows kind of feel but with an updated, dashing flair. Here is a look at some inspirational cabin decorating ideas with styles that range from an all white dream-like fantasy cabin to an ultra modern take on country living.
I've been on more weekend cabin vacations than I can count. I love kitschy cabin interiors full of odd trinkets with mix and match upholstery for a carefree, relaxing weekend getaway, but extend my rural stay any longer than that and my spidey decorating sense starts tingling.
Although I'm a city girl and I don't see myself heading for the hills just yet, I still like to dream about what my perfect rural hideaway would look like. Once I throw in some modern but comfy furniture, a simple color palette, urban fixtures and a chandelier I'm on my way to having that cozy, contemporary cabin of my dreams.
- This very girly, fun cabin bedroom has so much personality with its great color scheme and mix of textures. I just love the hanging lanterns and the silhouette art on the wall.
- This cabin bedroom keeps more on the traditional side incorporating the antlers and earth tones but brings a rustic modern feel with its decor and use of white.
- This one-room log cabin still maintains its warmth and charm by emphasizing the fireplace and wood furniture with the bold all white interior.
- Contemporary furniture and bright colors are an unexpected juxtaposition in this restored cabin.
- This small, sleek and minimal Scandinavian cabin showcases its hard edges and clean lines while emphasizing its breathtaking views.
- In keeping the decor of this Scandinavian cabin natural and light with just a few color accents the space feels open and airy. via My Scandinavian Retreat.
- Sandra Foster's delightful and tiny Victorian cottage in the Catskills.
- The dramatic white chandelier in this cabin-style bedroom brings a lovely and subtle elegance to the space. via Trubliss Chic
- This space uses whites, grays, woods and natural textures to obtain its cozy cabin feel.
- The use of antique white and metal turn this cabin office into a woodsy yet shabby chic work environment.

US Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney addresses the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) annual convention in Houston on July 11, 2012.
Mitt Romney, GOP candidate for president, has been looking for a way to run from the Affordable Care Act since the linchpin, the individual mandate, is essentially the same as the legislation Romney approved when he was governor of Massachusetts. Justice Ginsburg neatly pointed this out in her Supreme Court opinion on the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act.
The fact that "Romneycare" is, in all meaningful respects, "Obamacare" has been somewhat awkward for the Romney camp.
Romney really needs a conversation changer on "Obamacare."
Perhaps what we saw this week, therefore, is the roll out of the new messaging on "Obamacare." This began when Romney accepted an invitation to address the NAACP, the historic African American civil rights group. Romney was generally civilly received, except he was booed when he derided "Obamacare" as "expensive and unnecessary."
"Romney Welcomes the Boos" opined John Dickerson at Slate, because "It offered a chance for a candidate criticized for his malleability to look principled in the face of opposition."
Perhaps. But I think there's more to it than just looking "principled."
I too think Romney welcomed the "boos," but I have begun to wonder if Romney didn't solicit them in order to tee up his new message on health care. The "boos" from the African American crowd at the NAACP made headlines and Romney addressed that response in a speech to a group of donors in Hamilton, Montana.
"If you're looking for free stuff you don't have to pay for? Vote for the other guy, that's what he's all about, okay? That's not, that's not what I'm about."
"Free stuff." Suddenly, that seemed to become the new message on "Obamacare" from Romney: legislation to provide a means to obtain health care by those who are currently uninsured is the equivalent of giving people "free stuff," that is, a "handout." This is insulting to millions of Americans whose health is at risk because they cannot afford the high costs of private health insurance.
But it is especially insulting to African Americans given the cynical way the Romney camp apparently got this new messaging out. Health care as "free stuff" wanted by African Americans is roughly equivalent, in its racial undertones, to Ronald Reagan's "welfare queens" messaging from his 1976 presidential campaign.
That 1976 presidential campaign was a terrible time in American politics as it set the template for using racially coded language to justify cutting the social safety net. This has had enormously negative consequences over more than three decades as it has served to cut the nerve of ethical effort to eliminate both poverty and racism. It gives people an excuse not to care about the poor because the poor 'don't deserve it,' and it stereotypes the poor as all African American when that is completely inaccurate. People are tempted to believe that universal health care isn't necessary because it is just a scam for people who are looking to get "free stuff."
Affordable health care isn't "free stuff" or a handout to the undeserving, it is a "moral responsibility" we have a society to one another, as Rev. Jennifer Butler said. Faith leaders from many religious perspectives worked hard for passage of the Affordable Care Act, and its constitutionality was called "a blessing" and "in line with our biblical and theological witness."
Health care is a "human right" according to these faith leaders, not a handout. It is particularly morally misguided of Mr. Romney, therefore, to characterize resistance on the part of an American audience to his calling the ACA legislation "unnecessary" as a desire for "free stuff."
Why would Mr. Romney do that?
I, among others, am becoming very suspicious that Mitt Romney's speech to the NAACP was not primarily addressed to that audience but to another audience entirely, namely his "base" of white voters. If this analysis is correct, it is an extraordinarily disrespectful treatment of the NAACP and its membership.
Americans can disagree about many things, and it is clear there is broad disagreement about health care legislation. But the one thing we owe each other as fellow citizens is mutual respect.
Prove me wrong, Mr. Romney. Quit saying the Affordable Care Act is just a way for people to get "free stuff." It's not.

A 37-year-old man has drowned after falling through ice on a fresh water loch as he tried to rescue his dog.
Strathclyde Police said his body was recovered from the Gadloch in Lenzie after an extensive search involving divers and a police helicopter.
Police were called to the incident in East Dunbartonshire at around 5pm on Sunday with ambulance and fire and rescue services.
The body was recovered around 7.30pm. The dog also drowned.
Strathclyde Fire and Rescue had three crews from Kirkintilloch, Bishopbriggs and Clydesmill at the incident.
They used a rigid inflatable boat to conduct a search of the loch, using a thermal image camera to locate any heat sources under the water.
Working with the police helicopter they swept the shore line of the loch and identified the location where the man fell into the water.
The rescue team warned of the dangers that open water areas present, urging people to keep pets on a lead around frozen water and to avoid attempts at rescuing animals on ice.
The Gadloch is often used for curling in winter as thick ice covers the surface, but police said there was only a small and unstable covering of ice on the loch at the time.
Police said investigations are continuing but they believe it was an accident and there were no suspicious circumstances.

New Zealand fur seals (Arctocephalus forsteri) are a non-migratory coastal species. Prior to being driven to near extinction, the population was historically found all around the North and South Islands including many offshore islands and sub-Antarctic islands. Today, they are found in New Zealand, around South Island, Big Green Island, Open Bay Islands, West Coast, Cape Foulwind, Cascade Point, Wekakura Point, Three Kings Islands, eastern Bass Strait, the Nelson-northern Marlborough region, Fjordland, New Zealand's sub-Antarctic islands Snares, Campbell, Chatham Islands, Antipodes, Bounty Islands, Stewart Island, the islands of the Foveaux Strait, a small colony at Cape Palliser near Wellington on the North Island and near the continental shelf edge of Otago Peninsula. There is also a population in southern and western Australia, Kangaroo Island, Tasmania and Victorian coastal waters, although the two New Zealand and Australian populations rarely overlap. On Australia's sub-Antarctic Macquarie Island, a population of young non-breeding males was discovered. They are believed to have originated from New Zealand. The distribution of seals across this range is largely a result of the distribution of their food source. When New Zealand fur seals migrate it's during the breeding season. However, during the summer, they stay closer to the rookery (70 to 80 km) then they do during the fall and winter seasons (162 to 178 km).
Biogeographic Regions: australian (Native ); oceanic islands (Native ); indian ocean (Native ); pacific ocean (Native )

text: Forget the treadmill and free weights. Jake Gyllenhaal, who got noticeably buff for his role in this summer's Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, has revealed how he got ripped for his role –and a gym membership wasn't involved. Gyllenhaal's secret to achieving the hulking build of his character Prince Dastan? The French martial art of Parkour (also known as "freerunning"). "[I] never did anything this intensive before [to change my body]. It's a physical role. And when I commit to playing a part, it's 110 percent," said the 29-year-old actor. "We worked really closely with David Belle, who invented Parkour. I worked with a lot of gymnasts. I started jumping off of a lot of things that were padded and learned the fundamental stuff, and then slowly started working on harder surfaces, really carefully. And I'd say, 'OK, I'll try it,' and then I'd say, 'OH GOD. OH, please.' But then I'd get it, and we'd go a little further and a little longer and a little higher and just kept it up," explained Gyllenhaal, who did many of his own stunts during filming, even scaring himself at some points. "It got a little bit dicey there near the end, when they saw that I liked doing things that were dangerous. I tried my hand at things that were pushing it a little bit. There was this big 35 foot jump that I did that got a little hairy." So now that the movie's wrapped, is it just a matter of time before the big guns disappear? Says Gyllenhaal, "I enjoy being active as part of my daily insanity anyway, so I'll keep doing that." — reporting by Susan Young

Car Deals
Luxury SUV Deals: July 2012
Since most buyers wait until winter weather arrives before searching for a new SUV, car shoppers interested in a new luxury SUV will find several great deals available in July. We've compiled some of the most impressive offers below to provide buyers with a listing of some of the best luxury SUVs available with incentives this month.
Buick Enclave
Shoppers interested in the luxurious Buick Enclave will find several deals available in July. For qualified buyers looking to finance the SUV, Buick is offering interest rates as low as zero percent for up to 60 months plus $500 cash back-a deal that jumps to $2,000 back for shoppers who would rather pay cash. The automaker is also still running its Experience Buick campaign, which advertises a 24-month lease for just $299 per month after $3,199 at signing. An already good deal is further enhanced by two years of free scheduled maintenance, two years of free SiriusXM radio and a two-year subscription to OnStar directions and communications.
Cadillac Escalade
Whether you're interested in the Escalade EXT pickup, the extended-length Escalade ESV, the efficient Escalade Hybrid or the regular Escalade, Cadillac is offering low-interest deals throughout July. According to the automaker, all body styles and engine variants of its popular Escalade SUV are available with interest rates as low as zero percent for up to 60 months-a great deal for a large luxury SUV. For shoppers specifically interested in leasing a regular-length Escalade, Cadillac is also offering lease payments of just $749 after $4,129 at signing-a high rate made especially enticing by its short 24-month lease term.
Infiniti QX56
Although Infiniti isn't offering any special deals for shoppers interested in financing a QX56 or buying one with cash, the automaker is advertising several lease incentives on the large SUV throughout July. According to Infiniti, shoppers looking for low monthly payments can get a two-wheel-drive QX56 for just $795 per month after $3,999 at lease signing or $835 per month for a four-wheel-drive model with the same down payment. For shoppers looking for three rows of seats but who think the QX56 is just a bit too big, the recently released JX35 is also available in July with lease rates starting at just $549 per month after $3,400 at signing.
Lexus RX
Lexus is offering two incentives on its mid-size RX crossover in July. For SUV buyers interested in financing the RX, Lexus is advertising interest rates as low as 0.9 percent for up to 60 months-a rare deal from Lexus over such a long term. Shoppers who would prefer to lease an RX350 can also get a good deal, with Lexus advertising monthly rates of just $399 for 36 months after $3,209 at signing. Unfortunately for potential buyers interested in going green, none of the deals apply to Lexus's fuel-efficient RX450h, which boasts a hybrid drivetrain and fuel economy ratings of up to 30 mpg in city driving.
Volkswagen Touareg
Although Volkswagen is becoming increasingly committed to aiming its models at mainstream buyers, the Touareg remains a tried-and-true premium SUV. Through the end of July, it's also available with several great incentives for shoppers interested in buying or leasing. Buyers get the best deal, with Volkswagen advertising interest rates as low as zero percent for up to 72 months. That's an exceptionally low rate and long term for a luxury SUV. The automaker is also touting lease rates of just $499 per month after $2,999 at signing on its upscale Touareg V6 Sport, which includes heated front seats, Bluetooth and a power rear liftgate.
What it means to you: With so many great deals available now, don't wait until the fall to purchase a new luxury SUV.

The Big East is fast approaching a "tipping point." Not as the league we've come to know and love. But as a league, period.
Should Louisville and/or Connecticut leave the Big East, the seven basketball schools could well vote to dissolve the conference, according to The Providence Journal.
With dramatic instability on the football side in the wake of Rutgers' pending move to the Big Ten and with Louisville and Connecticut believed to be actively seeking new conference homes, the seven Catholic basketball schools in the Big East could vote to leave the league en masse and create their own conference.
The simplest and cheapest method would be to dissolve the Big East. And the basketball schools -- DePaul, Georgetown, Marquette, Providence, Seton Hall, St. John's and Villanova -- have until July to exert control.
Big East bylaws state that the league can be dissolved with a two-thirds majority vote, and dissolution is the only way for each school to avoid the $10 million-$20 million exit fees.
With Pitt, Syracuse, Notre Dame and now Rutgers leaving the conference, there remains only four football schools (Louisville, UConn, Cincinnati and South Florida) with voting rights. Should another leave before July, that'd give the basketball schools the power to dissolve the league and create another basketball-centric conference without penalty.
Come July, though, new members Temple, Central Florida, Houston, Memphis and SMU would have voting rights and could block the move.
New commissioner Mike Aresco, who assumed the job in mid-August, is in the midst of negotiating a new TV contract now. Should he fail create an equitable deal for the basketball schools and keep UConn and Louisville in the in the fold, the much talked about mega-basketball league could become reality.
The Big East basketball schools are more willing to consider the concept now more than ever, according to The Journal.
The concept of the new basketball conference would include the seven Big East basketball castoffs plus some, if not all, of high-profile non-football schools such as Gonzaga, Saint Mary's, Butler, Creighton, Xavier and Saint Louis.

For most of us, living green means energy-efficient lightbulbs, an extra sweater in winter instead of extra degrees on the thermostat, and maybe saving up for a hybrid car. But someday, as technology advances, the dream might get a lot bigger — and this amazing zero-energy house is a glimpse at that future.
The physics department at Italy's University of Padua teamed up with design firm Traverso-Vighy to create this spectacular pad that's entirely powered by its own solar panels and geothermal sources, and insulated using 40,000 recycled plastic bottles. The rest of the home is made entirely from recycled materials, as well. And in case you're worried that going deep, deep into the green means sacrificing on looks, you oughta know better. The sleek, modern lines are a design junkie's dream, and in order to maximize natural heating from the sun during winter months, the place is surrounded by huge floor-to-ceiling windows. When we say it's the world's coolest home, the pun is intended — super-functional design, including automated blinds, keep the place as close to optimal temperature as possible, year round.

Linux Or Windows? Do Your Homework.
This got me to thinking. I think he has a point. If a computer user sits down and does their homework, they decrease their chances of Windows getting infected. This means having to do some research, of course. A user really needs to find out which anti-virus software works best on Windows. They also have to learn about how best to avoid infecting their system. A windows user should also be vigilant. They should make sure to monitor news sites and blogs to see if any new virus is out their threatening Windows. (And there are a lot of viruses targeting Windows systems.)
If a Windows user takes the time to learn all this and makes sure their anti-virus subscription is paid and up-to-date, and learns about the inner workings of their OS, they should have a fairly secure system. And in the process, they'll learn more about the operating system and how to troubleshoot it should something go wrong. The more a user knows, the less likely they'll be returning the computer to the store where it was purchased. They'll be better able, themselves, to correct any problems that might arise.
Or, they can just use all this time and effort and simply learn Linux. Learn the Linux operating system, how it works, and how much more secure it is. Sure, a new Linux user should still learn about virus threats. But they'll have the added peace of mind in knowing that Windows viruses don't affect Linux systems.
So, sit down, and do your homework. You can learn a lot about Windows, how to tweak it, and how to make it more secure. But just know that, as a Windows user, you'll still be under threat of attack by viruses, spyware and malware. And once one security hole in Windows is plugged, another always seems to pop up.
However, if you sit down and do your homework and learn how to use Linux, you'll have a more secure system which cannot be attacked by Windows viruses. AND you will have learned a bit more about computing. This knowledge liberates you from Windows. You won't be dependent on Microsoft. (Plus, when you switch, you'll save money in the long run).
Either way, a well informed and educated computer user will know how to overcome problems.
However, the choice is yours. Learn more about Windows, but still have the target on your back. Learn about Linux with the target taken off.
Get Linux.

*faints after seeing name in print*
A good post. My only real security issue with Windows (after ~1 hour of customization - not default) is that I have to trust Microsoft for all security updates. With my SliTaz system, I can count on a number of eyes monitoring the code of every included component. If there is a fix available, I can package it myself using Tazwok. I don't have to sit there and pray that Microsoft turns out updates in a timely manner.
My only complaint with this post is where you say that a Windows user must "makes sure their anti-virus subscription is paid and up-to-date." The competent security measures I've mentioned in some other posts basically remove the need for an antivirus. The paranoid can use ThreatFire, which is free and scans based on behavior rather than definitions. This protects against zero-day assaults and doesn't waste resources.

Amnesia is memory loss that may be caused by a head injury or
stroke, substance abuse, or a severe emotional event, such as combat or a motor
vehicle accident. Depending upon the cause, amnesia may be temporary or it may
be a permanent condition.
Amnesia can involve complete loss of memory of one or more of the
The cause determines whether the condition comes on slowly or
suddenly. Memory problems that come on gradually may be a part of ongoing
mental decline (dementia). Total global amnesia is a type of unexplained
amnesia that begins suddenly.
Treatment options and results of treatment of amnesia depend on the
cause of lost memory.

Wow, the initial reaction towards a prospective 6" line is pretty negative (at Rebelscum, here, etc.). What baffles me are the comments from collectors saying they don't want to "start over." Who says you have to? Why can't you continue to collect 3.75" figures AND (gasp) 6"?! Nobody had to "start over" when they released Unleashed figures, did they? You pick up what you like, it's that simple. Highly detailed, super articulated 6" figures of Star Wars characters? Count me in, especially with regards to OT characters. Start the line off on the right foot and begin by offering Boba Fett and Darth Vader, and you got a deal. My only worry is what the retail price and availability will be.
My thinking is that if 6" figures are coming, they will be a replacement for the 3 3/4" collector-oriented line. I can't see Hasbro making both. A lot of others must be thinking the same way, hence all of the "starting over" attitudes.
I think the comments around "starting over" are based on building another lineup of duplicate characters from scratch.
Even if they stick to core characters, you're essentially starting over with Luke, Han, Leia, Darth, etc. Most of us just don't have the space to go that route en masse without displacing some of your existing collection.
Indeed, it's challenging to simultaneously collect from multiple toy lines. It makes it harder to keep focus, not to mention the additional time and money spent acquiring items. However, many collectors are able to do it successfully, whether collecting SW figures and Lego items, SW figures and Marvel Universe figures, SW figures and Sideshow, and so on.
Quote from: Greg on January 28, 2013, 06:29 PMMy thinking is that if 6" figures are coming, they will be a replacement for the 3 3/4" collector-oriented line. I can't see Hasbro making both. A lot of others must be thinking the same way, hence all of the "starting over" attitudes. Why would you assume that? Hasbro has very successful Marvel lines in both the 4" and 6" scale. DCU figures like Batman and Green Lantern have been released in both scales. Heck, even Prince of Persia and Pirates of the Carribean had 4" and 6" lines. I can't see Hasbro just dumping their existing line of 4" after 30+ years. If/when they release 6" figures it will be an add-on to the 4" platform, not in place of it.
I think it is valid... I've devoted my shelving space to 3.75" figures. Not 3.75" and now a set of 6" ones.I'd probably buy Bossk... Not sure on RFT or Tarkin, but I'd buy Bossk for my Bossk focus and call it a day on any 6" figure "collection", per se.
And, I'll just go on record again that if they do a 6" line, I'm just not interested. I'm too old to start over, especially at the $15/16 price point that these would invariably have. More power to those that would buy, but not me. I don't have the room.

Planting Guides
Step-by-Step Wildflower Seed Planting Instructions
- Check for your last frost date and plant after this has passed. Choose a spot on your property that gets 6 or more hours of direct sun a day unless you are planting seeds for shade.
- Prepare your soil by clearing the area of all existing growth. Simply dig up everything that is growing, turn the soil and rake the area flat. If this is an area that has never before been gardened, you may need to till the area up to remove growth.
- Mix the seeds with sand* for better visibility and scatter the seeds directly on top of the soil. If you are sowing a larger area, we recommend using a seed spreader; if not, you can sow by hand.
- We recommend lightly compressing the seeds into the soil, making sure not to bury them. You can either walk on them, use a board or if you are sowing a larger area, rent a seed roller.
- Water so that the soil is moist, not soaking wet, until the seedlings are about 4-6" tall. After that, the seedlings will survive on natural rains. If you are experiencing very dry weather, we recommend watering occasionally.

Suggested Companion Plants:
USDA Hardiness Planting Zones
To determine if a plant is sufficiently cold hardy, the USDA created numbered zones indicating winter low temperatures; the lower the zone number the colder the winter.
- If the coldest winter temperature expected in your area is -15°F (zone 5) then any plants rated zones 3-5 will survive the winter temperatures in your area.
- If you live in very warm winter areas (zones 9-11) plants with zones 3-4 ratings are not recommended. The lack of freezing winter temperatures do not provide a time for winter dormancy (rest).

The project is called PRISM, which is fitting when you think about how data travels through fibre these days. The Washing Post has gained access to a set of very detailed slides from the NSA explaining how it all all works and who the NSA is collaborating with, and it includes all the big names in technology, from Apple to Facebook, from Google to Microsoft. It covers all information flows, whether from Americans or non-Americans. Considering virtually each and every one of uses one or more American services or software products, we are all targets. Nearly 1 in 7 intelligence reports in the US is now based on PRISM data.
What's most peculiar is that the companies involved in PRISM all deny being part of it. The Washington Post contacted the companies involved, and Facebook and Apple said they have no knowledge of the program, and thus are not involved with it - which is odd, because the official government documentation clearly mentioned them. The Verge contacted Google, and the search and advertisement giant, too, denies involvement - even though they, and several of its companies like youTube, are listed as well. Microsoft was the first company to join the program (and is also denying involvement, others joined in later. Twitter has yet to join.
The PRISM program has access to everything - phone call recordings, file transfers, browsing history, email, your files stored on the internet, and so on. Just about anything you can imagine is part of PRISM. Suddenly, it starts to make even more sense why China is so hell-bent on creating its own alternatives to American products and services; they obviously knew about PRISM long before we did.
The program is technically legal and court-approved (by the FISA court), but that's only because that FISA court convenes in secret, behind closed doors, is unchecked by the people, and rarely releases any documentation whatsoever. "I would just push back on the idea that the court has signed off on it, so why worry?" Jameel Jaffer, deputy legal director of the American Civil Liberties Union, told the Washington post, "This is a court that meets in secret, allows only the government to appear before it, and publishes almost none of its opinions. It has never been an effective check on government."
What's more, when under oath only a few months ago in March 2013, the NSA, by mouth of director of national intelligence James Clapper, denied that the NSA and the US government was spying on its citizens. Six minutes and forty seconds in, a clearly fidgeting and uncomfortable Clapper responds "No sir. Not wittingly." Looking back, it's clear the guy is lying, as he's showing all the telltale signs.
Clapper is clearly disconnected from reality, as his response to the uncovering of PRISM is borderline idiotic. In several press releases, he reiterates the program is legal (and thus, confirms its existence), and that the reports by The Washington Post and The Guardian contain several inaccuracies - but as a crystal clear sign of weakness, he doesn't actually detail the supposed inaccuracies. Furthermore, and this is where he really goes off his rocker, he accuses the two newspapers of endangering the lives of Americans, and that reporting on PRISM is "reprehensible".
The unauthorized disclosure of information about this important and entirely legal program is reprehensible and risks important protections for the security of Americans.
PRISM isn't even the worst of it. The NSA has collected records on every phone call made in the US in the last seven years, and has that data stored on servers right now. In addition, the NSA receives data on every American from US internet service providers and credit card companies. Combine PRISM data with this additional data - and probably from a variety of other sources - and it's pretty clear the US is now officially a surveillance state, not much better or worse than China. In addition, the NSA has collected loads of information on non-Americans as well, which looks a lot like an act of aggression against foreign, independent nations to me.
But, my dear American and non-American friends, you need not worry. That same man, director of national intelligence James Clapper, says we can all safely go to sleep since the US government is bound by law and can't sift through all this data at will. Of course, we all trust the US government. Right?
This scandal is growing like an oil stain, and even though the supposed 'legal' nature of it all will most likely mean nothing will happen, you'd hope some heads are going to roll here. Ideally, the program would be stopped the data destroyed, but that will never happen. It's a universal truth in governance that a government's power can only grow; it can never shrink. Once power is owned, it is never released. Government don't shrink; they either grow, or topple.
One thing is clear though: while we were all worrying about data collected by Google, Microsoft, Facebook, Apple, and others - we should have been focussing on the government all along. Just remember that if you buy an Xbox One, your next game console will have a microphone-equipped camera permanently peering into your living room, built by the first company to join the PRISM program.
It has been quoted to death the past 30 years, but we can now safely say that George Orwell was right - he was just off by 30 years. Welcome to the surveillance state.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - A jury has convicted Anna Nicole Smith's psychiatrist Khristine Eroshevich and boyfriend Howard K. Stern of conspiracy counts but acquitted the doctor who prescribed drugs for her of all charges.
The only conviction against Stern was for giving false names and acting by fraud to obtain prescriptions. Eroshevich was also convicted of unlawfully prescribing Vicodin by fraud.
The jury acquitted defendant Dr. Sandeep Kapoor of all charges.
The defendants were charged with conspiracy, excessive prescribing of opiates and sedatives to an addict, and fraudulently obtaining drugs by using false names.
The jury was asked to decide if the three defendants were trying to relieve Smith's emotional and physical pain or were feeding her addiction to prescription drugs.
They were not charged in Smith's 2007 accidental overdose death in Florida.

#include — Includes an external file for processing.
It is sometimes convenient to have the orchestra arranged in a number of files, for example with each instrument in a separate file. This style is supported by the #include facility which is part of the macro system. A line containing the text
#include "filename"
where the character " can be replaced by any suitable character. For most uses the double quote symbol will probably be the most convenient. The file name can include a full path.
This takes input from the named file until it ends, when input reverts to the previous input. Note: Csound versions prior to 4.19 had a limit of 20 on the depth of included files and macros.
Another suggested use of #include would be to define a set of macros which are part of the composer's style.
An extreme form would be to have each instrument defines as a macro, with the instrument number as a parameter. Then an entire orchestra could be constructed from a number of #include statements followed by macro calls.
#include "clarinet" #include "flute" #include "bassoon" $CLARINET(1) $FLUTE(2) $BASSOON(3)
It must be stressed that these changes are at the textual level and so take no cognizance of any meaning.
Here is an example of the include opcode. It uses the file include.csd, and table1.inc.

SPARTA, NJ - The Sussex Tech Bowling Team dropped to 7-5 on the year after a 7-0 loss to Jefferson on Thursday proving why Jefferson is one of the top teams in the league.
"No doubt Jefferson's a great team, you can't take anything away from them they just [have] great bowlers," Sussex Tech senior Travis Vihti said.
Despite the loss the Sussex Tech Team made their coach proud while trying to measure up to Jefferson.
"I'm very proud of my guys and girl bowlers," said Sussex Tech Head Coach Chad Gasiorek said. "Hat's off to Jefferson they are a good team, they have a great coach, but are they beat able yeah everybody's beatable."
Sussex would fall in the opening game 969-954 despite producing their highest pin count on the match. Senior Travis Vihti led the Mustangs with a game-high 226.
"The oil pattern was just right, I had to slow the ball down and that was pretty much my success with the 226," said Vihti.
"[Vihti] gets us started, he leads us off, he's definitely our team leader," said Gasiorek.
Brandon Salam joined Vihti in the first game by notching the teams' second 200 performance on the day. Salam collected a 204 in the first frame in route to a 601 series.
Salam continued his success into the second game for Sussex Tech opening up with two straight strikes.
As both Salam and Vihti began to cool off Bobby Waldron began to head up for the Mustangs. Waldron knocked down several loose spares to take a game-high 207 for the Mustangs. Waldron struggled in the first and third games finishing with a modest 561 series.
Salam's second game performance, however was not enough to help the Mustangs take game two. Jefferson responded by producing three 200-games in the second in route to their highest team game score of the night. Jefferson finished game-two on a roll with a 1005-944 victory to effectively take the match.
"The thing about my team is when they're relaxed and having a good time they bowl well. When they start getting down on themselves, not really making their shots, really getting upset, everybody doesn't bowl well," said Gasiorek.
Jefferson continues their dominance in the third game having an additional three bowlers with 200 or higher games. Jefferson's Kyle Bendish came to within one strike of a perfect game finishing with a game-high 288 to assert Jefferson's dominance as one of the top two teams in the league.
The Mustangs received a solid last game effort from Salam who finished with a team-high 229 in the final game. The sophomore Salam is expected to join Waldron, Matt Sturm, Joey Rigotty and Tommy Slater next season to form a potentially dominant Mustang team next season.
"[Salam]'s come along extremely well as a sophomore and we're going to be a force to be reckoned with in a few years if they stick together and keep bowling, and take it seriously," Gasiorek said.
As for this season the Mustangs have resigned themselves to remaining in fourth places as the top three spots are currently unattainable due to their now 7-5 record.
The Mustangs will set their focus on the remaining tournaments and matches on their schedule. They expect to be solid players in both the h/w/s tournament as well as the "Tech" Tournaments as Gasiorek described. Sussex Tech will compete in their next match on Monday against High Point.

The name of the Miami Marlins' new ballpark is apparently not changing anytime soon. For now, it'll remain Marlins Park.
Team president David Samson told the team's flagship radio station WAXY that he "didn't want to pressure anyone or myself" into rapidly closing a complex naming-rights deal before the start of the 2012 season.
Samson says the team is "happy to start 'Marlins Park' and see what happens." He made the comments Wednesday in his regular weekly appearance.
The team has referred to the building as Marlins Park in press releases since at least Jan. 13.
The first exhibition in the stadium is a high school game scheduled for March 5, followed by Marlins' games against the University of Miami and Florida International on March 6 and 7.

Succession Planning Strategies
Trends Report
Succession Planning Strategies
As the first wave of baby boomers begins retiring, the need for succession planning is increasingly critical to law firms. In terms of both management and client responsibilities, older partners have an obligation to the firm and their clients to begin transferring their responsibilities to younger partners before they retire or an unexpected event occurs.
Several years ago (in the October 2004 issue), this column discussed how law firms were starting to address the need for succession planning. This is a process that requires thought and care. So, given the unprecedented number of partners who are now entering their retirement years, it seems like an excellent time to revisit the topic.
Transitioning Client Responsibilities
This is a sensitive issue for both the lawyer and the client, and several important points must be kept in mind. First, the future health of every firm depends, to a great degree, on keeping longtime clients after the responsible partners are unable to serve them due to age, retirement, disability or death. At the same time, clients develop unique, close relationships with their lawyers over the years and, in many cases, they've had little, if any, exposure to younger lawyers in the firm. Adding to the dilemma is that older partners often actively resist giving up the clients for whom they are responsible.
Of course, in some firms the senior partners are more forward-looking, and even before they approach retirement years, they already engage younger lawyers in working with their clients. If the clients feel comfortable with these younger lawyers, the senior partners often take the initiative and began transitioning the clients to them.
In other cases, however, older partners fail to look to the firm's future or to recognize clients' needs or desires. For example, in some instances, client personnel retire and are succeeded by younger personnel who want to work with a lawyer closer to their own age. If the older partner fails to act accordingly, the client may well move to another firm. In other instances, older partners hoard clients and never involve younger lawyers in working with them. Then, when the partner retires (or is suddenly taken ill or worse), the client-lacking an active tie to the firm- simply takes its business elsewhere. If the partner has a substantial book of clients that he or she fails to transfer to others in the firm, the impact on the firm's bottom line can be dire.
The ideal situation is when older partners recognize two significant factors: First, the client's desire is the most important issue and must be acknowledged. Second, in most cases it's vital that the firm keep the client, even after the original partner is no longer the responsible or billing lawyer.
Therefore, as partners begin to wind down their practices, they need to develop a plan for involving younger lawyers in working with clients. In addition, they need to discuss the succession issue with each client. If the client approves-and that is the critical factor-the partner then begins to transfer responsibility to one of the firm's younger lawyers. The older partner may still handle a few matters for particular clients, such as in the case of protracted litigation, but the younger lawyer has now become the responsible lawyer, in both the firm's and the client's eyes.
Transitioning Management Responsibilities
Establishing procedures for transitioning firm and practice management responsibilities is another critical todo for firms. One effective approach for the managing partner's role is to elect or designate a potential successor as "assistant managing partner" or "administrative partner" some months (or even years) in advance of the existing MP stepping down. In this way, the successor gets the benefits of being mentored by the older MP and can gradually assume greater management responsibilities before officially taking the firm's reins.
The same approach can be used to transition practice group leaders, but with one key difference in the selection process. While it's important that the practice group members accept the younger partner as the future group leader, transition at this level typically works best when firm management appoints the successor, versus the person being elected by the members of the group.
Among firms with mandatory retirement policies, some have established an official wind-down period that commences three to five years in advance of a partner's retirement. Under this scheme, partners who hold senior management positions are required to step down at a specific point, so the firm can move younger partners into these positions while the older partners are still available to provide counsel and direction as requested. "As requested" are the key words here. Nothing causes more problems than a senior partner who, having stepped down from a management position, continues to impose his or her views on the successor without being asked.
Client responsibilities can be transferred during this period as well. Some firms, in fact, require the responsible partner to develop a transition plan for each client. These plans are approved and monitored by the managing partner or executive committee-although it's important to note that the speed and sequence in which clients should be transitioned depend on the circumstances relating to each client. And, of course, the partner should discuss these transition plans with the individual clients to ensure they are satisfied with the choice in successor lawyer.
But the most important point of all in succession planning is to begin the process early and start passing the torch while it's still lit, well in advance of the partner's planned retirement date, or before an unexpected event-serious injury, illness or death-suddenly douses the flame and leaves clients reeling.

Fear and loathing in Kingfisher Episode 1
Enjoy the first episode of Fear and Loathing in Kingfisher Resort- an exciting video series produced by Kite Utopia. The series focus on Kite Utopia's experience when Kitesurfing Kingfisher (Pagudpud, Ilocos Norte, Philippines).
The first episode is focused on our impression of Kingfisher resort itself and is based Kingfisher pagudpud on our impressions as well as those shared by guests of the resort.
Don't be surprised that the resort is ranked so highly on Tripadvisor - the kingfisher owner manipulate reviews and enjoy lack of competition.
Our bottomline on Kingfisher Kitesurfing is:
The place can be exciting and challenging for experienced kitesurfers because of the consistent winds and waves, people not engaged in watersports are very likely to be disappointed.
See you in the next episode!

I have wanted to paint words on the front of a dresser for a while now. I just haven't had the right dresser or come across a graphic telling me to paint it, until this nautical one I found via Pinterest.
Right about the time I pinned this graphic, my cousin called wanting to give me a dresser. Yay! To be fair, I'll be painting just about anything she wants for her new baby's room. It's a win,win for both of us.
Here's how it was when I got it, needing just a tad bit of work.
Good thing that this kinda of work is what the husband loves to do.
Here it is again after he did his thing and I gave it a quick coat of paint.
Next came the exciting part, painting the words on the front!
After adding the graphic, I distressed the entire graphic and gave it a dark tobacco hue glaze then sealed it.
Loving the way it turned out. Now to find a buyer since we live close to a lake & not the ocean. Ha!
Like always the Lord took care of our needs and sent someone who loved enough to take it home.

[¬] Manny Pacquiao: A Spiritual Awakening :-
Late last year eight-division world champion Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao began a journey of spiritual renewal, which now includes leading daily Bible study classes. He has embraced The Bible and its teachings, making The Bible his "manual for living his life." Eschewing many of the vices he claimed were poisoning his life, here, for the first time, Manny gives a thorough first-person account on his new-found spirituality and how it has affected his life as a world champion boxer, an elected public servant and a family man. It is candid, raw and enlightening.

[¬] Roach says "We know how to handle Bradley"
By Chris Williams: Freddie Roach has designed what he feels is the perfect plan to send unbeaten Timothy Bradley to his first defeat on June 9th against Manny Pacquiao.
Like usual, Roach is always talking about coming up with a gem of a plan to lead his fighter to victory. Roach never really says what these plans are, but he's always speaking about them as if he's got a map
to buried treasure.
Roach said to the Manila Bulletin "Manny is in a very good place. We have a big game plan and we know how to handle this guy."
Why on earth is Roach always talking about "we"? He's not the one that's going in the ring to get slugged in the head by Bradley, so why is he always saying "We"? I never feel good about people that say "We" when I'm the one doing the work. It just makes me mistrustful of them. Anyway, I don't get Roach at all. The guy always talks about his grand vision for Pacquiao. He's always got these schemes that sounds if he's a genius but then Pacquiao goes out there and looks as crude as a beginning novice in the ring, getting by one speed and power alone, but looking primitive. It just makes me wonder what are these so called plans that Roach is always dreaming up but I'm never seeing in action.
It just looks to me like Roach waves a red handkerchief in front of Pacquiao's before the fight like he's a little bull and then he sics him on his opponent. I don't see any real strategy in Pacquiao's fights. I just see him going straight at his opponents, trying to overwhelm them with speed and power. Sometimes it works out well for Pacquiao and other times he fails miserably, yet still wins the fight somehow. But I think Roach sounds pretentious with when he talks about having an unbeatable game plan to beat an opponent like Bradley, because I don't see any game plan with Pacquiao's fights other than Roach letting him loose on them.

Understanding Lead Capture and Conversion
It's been a fun couple of years watching the real estate world trying to catch on to the realities of the "New" Real Estate and the importance of the Internet.
On a weekly basis I get many phone calls about how agents can maximize their websites and Internet Leads. It still amazes me that most Realtors® do not use the Internet.
Of course if you are using HomeGain's BuyerLink program you are heading in the right direction.
How many of you have Real Estate Websites? Go ahead, raise your hands! Ok, now how many of you actually get business from your Websites? I don't see many hands out there. So let's take a few minutes and look at why that is so.
Lead Capture
I am on the Web probably too much these days to see what the competition is doing. To my joy, they still don't get it and aren't doing anything except taking listings and more listings and more listings.
Wow! I must be missing something because the last I looked listings weren't selling.
Anyway, the Internet, in my mind, is the best way to capture home buyers. Remember, sales is a numbers game and Real Estate is no different. If you want to work, then the Internet is the place to be. Continue reading this post

Brief SummaryRead full entry
The diet of the Northern Cardinals is highly varied, but consists mainly of seeds, insects, and berries. The young are fed mostly insects.
The male sings to defend his nesting territory and actively attacks intruders. In courtship, both male and female raise their heads high and sway back and forth while singing softly. Early in the breeding season, the male often feeds the female. The female sings mainly in the spring before nesting. The nest, which is an open cup built by the female, is typically hidden in dense vegetation 1 to 3 m above the ground, sometimes higher. The 3 to 4 (sometimes 2 or 5) eggs (whitish to pale bluish or greenish white marked with brown, purple, and gray) are incubated for 12 to 13 days, almost always by the female alone. Both parents feed the young, which leave the nest around 9 to 11 days after hatching. The male may continue to feed the fledglings as the female initiates a second brood. There may be two to three broods per year (rarely four).
(Kaufman 1996; AOU 1998; Dunn and Alderfer 2011)
