Coming Up - Sarah Palin Can See Joe McGinniss From Her House
Super author Joe McGinniss is writing a book about super party crasher Sarah Palin, and to help with his research, he's rented the house in Alaska right next door to her's. If you don't know who Joe McGinniss is, you should. He's probably most famous for his book, Fatal Vision about convicted family murderer, Jeffrey MacDonald. Fatal Vision is one terrific read, whether you're "into" true crime or not. The tentative title of Joe's book about Sarah Palin is: Sarah Palin: The Year of Living Dangerously. It's due out in the fall of 2012.
Now, every good writer (and some who aren't writers at all) know that in order to write well about a subject, one has to know that subject. McGinniss actually moved in with MacDonald in MacDonald's southern California condo in order to write about him. He attended every day of MacDonald's trial. MacDonald, of course, was shocked and mortified when McGinniss came to the conclusion that he (MacDonald) was guilty. (I have to add, I don't see how anyone with even a smidgen of intelligence and critical thinking skills could come to any other conclusion.)
Despite MacDonald's shock, I think McGinniss played fair. He didn't promise MacDonald that he was going to write a book about him that would glorify him and come to the ultimate conclusion that MacDonald was innocent of the murders of which he'd been accused. In fact, McGinniss' written contract with MacDonald stated very clearly and explicitly that McGinniss would write the facts surrounding the MacDonald murders and Jeffrey MacDonald, himself and that he (McGinniss) would be free to come to any conclusion he felt the evidence supported, i.e., MacDonald's innocence in the murders of his pregnant wife and young daughters, MacDonald's guilt in the murders, or the fact that it was impossible to come to any conclusion either way. As far as I can see, and I've read Fatal Vision several times and watched the movie adaptation, every conclusion Joe McGinniss comes to in his book is supported by very strong, almost indisputable evidence that MacDonald is, in fact, guilty.
There are those who point to MacDonald's civil suit against Joe McGinniss, those who never tire of saying that MacDonald "won" that civil suit. No, he didn't. The jury was hung, and McGinniss' publisher offered MacDonald a settlement rather than face a long, drawn out legal battle, something publishers often do. MacDonald took the settlement, but he didn't even see most of the money. Most of it went to Mildred Kassab and Dorothy (Perry) MacDonald, the first the mother of Colette Stevenson MacDonald and both the grandmothers of the MacDonald children. Jeffrey MacDonald would have made out far better financially if he would have just stood by his written contract with McGinniss.
Sarah Palin, who, remember, has an undergraduate degree in journalism, must not have read Fatal Vision and must not be aware of Joe McGinniss' track record of "playing fair." (Remember, Joe McGinniss did not promise to write a flattering book about Jeffrey MacDonald, and Jeffrey MacDonald knew that. He promised to write the facts as he saw them.) Well, Sarah's now accusing McGinniss of "stalking her." My goodness. The last time I checked, Joe McGinniss had every right to rent a house next door to Sarah Palin. He hasn't been seen peering into the Palin's windows, trespassing on the Palin's property, or removing mail from the Palin's mail box. He's simply...living and working in close proximity to Sarah, herself. And I think he's only going to stay for five months. As long as Sarah's not doing anything (else) to be ashamed of, what does she have to worry about?
Besides stalking, Sarah likes to accuse McGinniss of "yellow journalism." Sarah, despite her undergraduate degree in journalism, believes a story is untrue if she, personally, dislikes it or disagrees with it. Hmmm. I thought "yellow journalism" was something different, but then, what do I know? I can't see Russia (or Joe McGinniss) from my house and I studied drama and French in college, not journalism.
So far, I've heard nothing at all from Joe McGinniss about Sarah Palin, but I've heard plenty from Sarah Palin about Joe McGinniss. Sarah and Company have taken to her Facebook page and posted a photo of Joe McGinniss standing on the deck of his very own rented home, minding his very own business and not intruding on anyone. Sarah has implied, several times over, that McGinniss is a voyeuristic borderline pedophile. (Oh, my goodness, I don't think anything could be further from the truth.) Now, Sarah might not like Joe McGinniss living next door to her for the next five months, but by posting the implication that McGinniss is a criminal or at least has criminal and sociopathic tendencies, Sarah is, herself, engaging in "yellow journalism" of the brightest hue.
And who's stalking who here? McGinniss simply moved into a house in Alaska, a house that was for rent. It's Sarah Palin who's blogging obsessively about Joe McGinnis. It's Sarah Palin who's posting photos of Joe McGinniss and invading his privacy. It's Sarah and the former "first dude" of Alaska, "the Todd" who erected a fourteen foot fence along their property. I wonder why they did that? I do not know, but I think, come autumn 2012, we all shall see.
Why is Sarah Palin so uncomfortable with Joe McGinniss living next door to her for the next five months? What has she got to hide? Is she afraid he won't find her attractive in her running shorts? Is she afraid he won't keep a supply of sugar on hand so she can borrow a cup for homemade chocolate chip cookies? Or is she afraid that McGinniss will produce a book that tarnishes her "Mom, America, and apple pie" image? A book that, like Fatal Vision is backed up with irrefutable evidence and facts? And why doesn't Sarah, if she has nothing to hide, simply sit down with Joe McGinniss and talk to him? After all, in my humble opinion, the woman is a publicity hound, and Joe McGinniss is one terrific writer, who wants to give her some extra publicity and face time. We should all be so lucky. It seems Sarah, who says she's so sure of herself and her "Tea Party" friends, would welcome the book, especially with elections coming up, instead of doing everything she can to avoid its author.
And it isn't like Joe McGinnis is going after some babe in the woods, either. Sarah Palin chose the limelight when she chose politics, and according to her, her entire family was "on board." And furthermore, she not only allowed, but welcomed, being thrust into that limelight when she accepted the Republicans' offer to be John McCain's running mate on the 2008 ticket. You choose to live in the limelight, your life is "fair game." McGinniss isn't stalking Sarah Palin or any member of her family. He isn't lying about her. But I think Sarah Palin is coming perilously close to stalking and lying about Joe McGinniss.
In closing, I do know one or two other things. I know I trust Joe McGinniss to give me the truth, and I trust him to back up that truth with evidence and facts. I also know I'm going to be first in line to buy Joe McGinniss' book when it comes out in 2012. Honestly, I can't wait. If I'm really lucky, maybe he'll send me an autographed copy.
Wish me luck!

Further evidence for the creepy injustice of being yoked up to the cheap moralistic pomo project in today's commercialized academia
Background: I have had to review for journals way too many would-be articles asserting theoretically (without the benefit of much connection to the research literature on the topic) that people get involved in food movements in order to create class distinction.
My colleagues have begun to analyze their data from an experiment where they tested the pomo Bowderlized Bourdieuian/Latte Liberals hypothesis that the food movement is all about middle class people distinguishing themselves, via their superior consumption capacity, from other working class people.
My colleagues conducted an experiment over the past several months to test whether different kinds of people buy fairtrade coffee or mainstream coffee when they know others can see their purchasing decisions v. when they purchase in private. Do people make their food decisions based on their desire to demonstrate cultural distinction?
The results? It's not looking good for the Bourdieu Bowdlerizers. H1 disproved. That is, it makes no difference (to their consumption practices) whether consumers think others are watching their consumption decisions or not. (In other words, most everyday people who consume fair trade are nowhere near as narcissistic as, say, academics. Shocking.) People's fair trade consumption decisions are not about lording it over each other with class differance display.
What does matter? Gender. Women will buy fair trade rather than pocket a little extra cash. Also, political beliefs. Conservatives and leftists do not buy fair trade. Liberals do. (Greater belief in the potential class-neutrality of the market? Less need to penny-pinch, when compared to Leftists?)
I have a suggestion for the pomoistas. Give it a break with the setting up of lame distinction hypotheses revolving around atavistic, unjustifiably-reified mid-20th century culturally-determined definitions of class. Crack open a newspaper. Do you notice anything happening to class in the West? Yeah. That's right. Bifurcation. It's been going on for over 30 years now, and it was going on the whole time prior to 1940. There's a differance going on right now, alright. Learn about it and in good faith peruse the theory that can shed some light on it. Also, research the literature before you submit your article.

The Kove® engineering team regularly evaluates current and emerging solid state media, such as Flash, Phase Change Memory, and Memristors, among many others.
No one debates that DRAM provides the lowest latency, highest performance media. RAID controllers, Ethernet NICs, spinning disk and Flash devices, all use DRAM buffers. Server main memory uses DRAM because it can satisfy the demanding requirements of the CPUs.
Kove® memory meshes use DRAM for uncompromising performance. Application illustrations include large scale in-memory computing, big data analytics, graphs, in-memory databases, stock exchanges, proprietary trading applications, and transaction processing.
Other technologies optimize for capacity, with resulting performance tradeoffs that make them inapplicable for use as actual computer memory. Consider:
Kove® memory meshes use DRAM.
Unlike spinning disk and Flash, the Kove® XPD® family will not meaningfully degrade performance, whether at 10% occupancy or at 95% occupancy. Short stroking is not necessary. Unlike local memory, Kove® memory meshes scale to the full 64 bit address space, scaling right across box boundaries whenever necessary, linearly scaling performance and capacity.
Specifically, the Kove® XPD® product line provides consistent IOPS for variable I/O patterns, world record-setting bandwidth, and the lowest available real world latency performance.
The Kove® XPD® technology just works, and when performance matters it just works better.

"As a key member of my administrative cabinet, I have appreciated his dedication and commitment to helping advance the departments within his area to better support students, staff and the education environment within our schools."
Sauls began his teaching career at Central Academic School in Raleigh in 1976. The following year, the Eureka native returned to Wayne County as a teacher at Norwayne Junior High. Since then, he has taught and served as athletic director at Charles B. Aycock High School; worked as WCPS Director of Secondary Education, Health/Physical Education, Social Studies, and Drivers Eligibility; and served as principal of Rosewood High. In January 2015, Sauls transitioned from school administration to the Superintendent's Cabinet as Acting Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum & Instruction/Athletics. Later that year, he was named Assistant Superintendent for Support Services/Athletics.
In addition to a master's degree in school administration from East Carolina University, Sauls holds a bachelor's degree in history education. He is certified in secondary English, math and social studies, as well as middle grades language arts, reading, math and social studies. His certification also includes elementary education.
The floating reception will be held at the WCPS Administrative Offices on Royall Avenue from 2:00 PM until 5:30 PM. Sauls' last official day with the district will be June 30.

Confidence is key, as Compton rapper Game knows.
Like our sister paper Village Voice said last week, Game (we hate that he dropped the "The") is "the ultimate company man ... he has kept admirably cool while the years pass by; instead, when asked about the delays in interviews, he responds with aplomb."
Case in point: Last week on the set of his video for "Pot of Gold," a single from upcoming The R.E.D. Album, which will have been delayed almost two years when it's released August 23, 2011, he told MTV,
"This album is the most incredible album of my career. First, I'm back with Dr. Dre, which is a bonus and dope for me. Second, executive-produced by Pharrell, co-executive-produced by myself and Mars ... And Dre's rapping on the album."
If you like this story, consider signing up for our email newsletters.
You have successfully signed up for your selected newsletter(s) - please keep an eye on your mailbox, we're movin' in!
Well, that lineup definitely would have fulfilled that "most incredible" prophecy ... in 2003.
Don't get us wrong, we still love any and every Pharrell production, even to the point of being ridiculed. And Dr. Dre is one of the legends.
But with Pharrell's interest seemingly departed to icier pastures (fashion design, jewelry design, furniture design, liqueur creation), Dr. Dre's feet over the release of Detox not just cold, but freezing, and Game's lackluster singles (not to mention the strictly going-through-the-motions video for "Ain't No Doubt About It"), how are we supposed to get excited about this?
Are you?

RAGE is a groundbreaking first-person shooter set in the not-too-distant future after an asteroid impacts Earth, leaving a ravaged world behind. You emerge into this vast wasteland to discover humanity working to rebuild itself against such forces as bandit gangs, mutants, and the Authority – an oppressive government regime that has a special interest in you in particular. Featuring intense first-person shooter action, breakneck vehicle combat, an expansive world to explore and jaw-dropping graphics powered by id's revolutionary id Tech 5 technology, RAGE promises an experience like no other.
Fearing a planet-wide extinction from a massive asteroid headed towards Earth, world leaders are faced with the inexorable task of ensuring human survival. Left with few alternatives, life-sustaining pods filled with select people are buried deep beneath the earth's surface. You are one of the chosen members of these modern day arks and abruptly enter the RAGE universe after surfacing alone. Leaving you to your own devices to stay alive in a world filled with those who prefer you dead, RAGE combines powerful storytelling with heart-pounding action.
The "RAGE" novel delves even deeper into this world and its characters through the pen of Matt Costello--the same person who helped write the story for the game. The world was doomed and only some of the population could be saved. That was what the scientists were saying, at least. So the best and brightest were gathered and put into stasis deep beneath the surface of the Earth--buried so that man could live.
When Lt. Nick Raine emerges from his Ark, he finds the human race has not been wiped out. And people, as resilient as they are, are scraping together a new world from the rubble of the old. This was not what anyone in the Arks expected--a new society where might is right, mutants plague the Earth, and "friend" is a term for the person who hasn't stabbed you in the back.
The novel will be written by author and game writer Matt Costello and will release in North America on August 30, 2011. The novel will be published simultaneously in the UK and British Commonwealth by Ebury Publishing, part of the Random House Group.
Key Features:
- Visceral 1st-person gunplay and exploration – Take on bandit gangs and hordes of mutants using an arsenal of exotic weapons and special items, such as wingsticks, personal turrets, sentry bots, and remote-controlled bomb cars.
- Frenetic 3rd-person vehicular mayhem – Burn rubber across the wasteland in your very own super buggy! Upgrade and customize your car with special parts, paint jobs and weapons, then test your skills as you battle four-wheeling bandit clans and participate in deadly races.
- Three ways to play for unlimited action – Immerse yourself in a rich story-driven single-player experience, grab a friend for exclusive co-op modes, or go online for all-out multiplayer mayhem.
- An expansive experience – Beyond the first-person action and vehicle combat, RAGE offers a world open to explore, with unique characters, side quests, and a compelling storyline.
- Graphics that have to be seen to be believed – Powered by id's cutting-edge new id Tech 5 engine, new Megatexture technology brings the vast wasteland to life in never-before- possible detail with action running at an astounding 60 frames per second.

Here's my humble contribution. My partner likes Dia De Los Muertos and Lucha Libre themes. I was particularly inspired by the vibrant colors and glam designs of the wrestling masks so that's the direction I went!
I used the usual supplies for this; linen fabric, fancy felt, DMC thread and my alphabet stamps.

One of Africa's Finest Comedian, and Guinness Book of World's Record holder, Comedian Ayo Makun has schooled a follower who dared to correct him.
Apparently, the comedian while promoting his new movie, 10 days to Suncity, commended Actress, Adeusa Etomi on the role she played in the movie.
Makun wrote; "If you want to enjoy a good actor that is gifted with the ability to bring something unique to the table, go catch @adesuaetomi playing 'Bianca' in 10 DAYS IN SUN CITY today.. showing in cinemas".
The follower then responded; "Did you mean actress?",
Ay of course reponded, he wrote: "In trying to correct me, you also now have an opportunity to learn from me. lol. The word actor refers to a person who acts regardless of gender, while actress refers specifically to a female person who acts; therefore a female can be referred to by either term. "Actor" can be used for both sexes. But I appreciate your concern"

Solaris 10 Update 1 has shipped. There are nifty things like new-boot in there, but here's a small, subtle, but perhaps blog-worthy entry.
RFC 3947 NAT-Traversal is now part of Solaris. The RFCs were published literally days after the Solaris 10 development gate closed its doors for anything but critical bug fixes. We had used the draft-09 version of NAT-T for Solaris 10, but now we have the RFC-compliant one, which should insure maximum interoperability.
Not a big deal, but IPsec-savvy folks out there ought to know.
It's time to enjoy my Christmas/New-Year's break. Enjoy your own end-of-year activities (whatever they are) and catch you in 2006.

When do you take the time to learn a new library? I decided now was as good a time as any since I was at a new job and working on a new application. In the past I have used straight JSON parsing and hand written HTTP code. This time I decide to see what RestKit had to offer for both areas and I am happy I did that.
It can be very hard to retrofit a new library into old code. The design most likely does not follow the new pattern. No one wants to start from scratch when an existing product is already working. Kind of a shame because a lot of the time doing that can really make things work a lot better and make it easier to catch odd exceptions.
Per usual I got the Android side up and running pretty quickly. I did use the GSON library, which I have used in the past, but I used it in a deeper way. I set up the objects with the correct annotations and I let the library create my objects from the HTML body of the response. Worked like a champ. I implemented loaders to pull in the data and images for everything to happen on a background thread.
Next up was the iOS version. I found a lot of RestKit information on the web so I figured I would give it a shot. Not only does it handle the HTML / JSON request / responses but it also deals with JSON to object mapping. It took a bit more work to get that going though. You have to return object mappings instead of doing simple annotations. Once I had it figured out it worked very well. Some trial and error as I made the request over and over to the server to see what else I screwed up in the mapping. The JSON objects I am parsing go 6 levels deep. I did not write the server side so I am not in control of that aspect.
The image side was a different story at least when it comes to requesting a lot of images via queue in a background thread. There is a lot of documentation about the older .10 version of RestKit but less for the newer .20 code base. I fumbled around with things for a bit then found the SDWebImage library which did exactly what I needed in very few lines of code.
I am using CocoaPods for all my iOS work along with AppCode for the IDE. Yes, I have to switch back to Xcode from time to time as I can't find ways of doing things such as adding a Font to the project. This is not a super straight forward thing in Xcode either. I really want AppCode to do everything. I have been doing my Storyboard work in AppCode. Took a little bit of time to figure out where to drag from to get the IBOutlet connections to work. Xcode is confusing in this area too, nothing leads you down the path, you need to know to hold down the right keys and drag things and drop them on the right area. They improved this with Xcode 5 where you drop directly in the code but boy does the screen get cluttered when you try and have an iPad Storyboard open with code too.
Working with iPad Storyboards is a pain in both products. The screens are big and even though I am running the IDE on a 24" monitor there still is not enough space. I guess I need to have the IDE span both of my monitors as anytime you need to set up a segue between two screens you just don't have the space to do it. Even running the simulator on a 24" monitor for an iPad Retina at 50% leaves scrollbars in place. This outright sucks. I use GenyMotion for my Android work and I am able to easily scale that window to fit on screen.

About "Understanding bird song" by Raid71
Understanding bird song
Design by Raid71
Love love love this!
another great sub, raid.
good stuff the two youts
great work u guys 5
Don't lose the cup! This is so cute. I like the contrast between the simplicity of the speech bubbles and the texture on the bird and cup. Sweetness! $5.
Awesome! $5!
you are so good at this tshirt art thing 5$ - wish I could give more
omg this is sooooo gorgeous that i cringed because i was afraid that someone ganked your style. i would have $5'd it regardless, i just would have felt a tinge of guilt.
*not that it was so gorgeous that i DIDN'T think it was yours
very nice! 5
awesome work raid.
sweet! well done!
great as is
this is great! i can't wait to wear it!
good stuff
I just licked the monitor, turns out your submission does not taste nearly as sweet as it looks. But hey, you can't have EVERYTHING. Nice work, you guys! 5$
very coool.
i've got a feeeling about this one. 5$
great work guys
looks really nice. good job you two! 5.
really excellent stuff here guys .. wish I did it
nice work guys! $5
very awesome and solid illustration 5
Great work, Chris.
This is darn awesome but I do think the cup distracts from the main content
thanks for all the comments people
i scored this a 5$ and i was partial to the cup. I liked it, but disliked the way it unbalances the whole illust/design. So I held off my comment for a bit.
I looked at it the 2nd time and thought that it would look better if the bird was smaller and that there are 2 cups instead.. i dunno just my suggestion though
i imagine wingspan is important to lady birds
Yeah this will get printed, I'll put money on it.
If this doesn't get printed I'm going to cry!!!! $5!!!!!
$ing it! 5
I came back in here to tell you guys that I can not WAIT until this is printed.
P.S. I just noticed & LOVE love the humping birds!
There are very few shirts that I approve of. And this is one of the best in a very, very long time. I've only commented on a couple of things, and this is really great. I'll cry if this doesn't get printed.
HAH! I love the birdsex! 4$
Fantastic team up fellas....i really dig the muted colors on this one...4$
the teacup is essential. This is radical 5
Sweet Jesus - this ones even better
Reminds me of a part of HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy, a guy learns to speak to birds and finds them incredibly boring. $5
I would love to see a couple of variations on this theme.
very beautiful...5$
t5 $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ jsut the way it is
yes. $5
I really hope this gets printed - don't change a thing.
Lovely tea-cup.
The folks that are asking you to change things are nincompoops.
I love this and pretty much all your work...great style $5
winnar! cha-ching!
looks awesome, love the colours perfect
lol 'J-Ray' repetitive comments good
I love it. Wonderful concept and well executed! $5
$5 but whats the deal with the cup?
Hehe I really like this 4!
i think this is really cool, but i find the cup in general to be a little odd.
This design has me walking around, humping the air...like a dog in heat.
awesome work, also keep the cup $5
This one going get printed! $5
This is gonna sell out SO fast... haha
Everything about this submission is beautiful. Once it's printed, PLEASE keep it on natural.
Good score, but I can't believe it didn't get higher.
This is BEAUTIFUL.
I love this. If I could vote, $5. It could be good without the cup, too.
congrats guys!
Yay yay yay yay yay!
That was a deep, manly, baritone string of yaying, just in case you're wondering.
ha- i just read my original comment. it was never in doubt!
SQUEEEEE! I'm so happy this got printed! I wear mine all the freaking time!

Today's forecast has me excited for spring. Much like the green sweater from Friday's post, this denim parka would be a great transitional piece as the weather gets warmer.
I like wearing denim in interesting ways, and this street-chic jacket would be so fun to style. The casual, off-duty vibe would pair perfectly with liquid leggings or black or grey skinnies. Click here to check it out (and stay tuned for a full outfit incorporating this item in Friday's 'What I Want' collage!).
Happy Monday, loves!

Power supply 4.5 A with 3 LM317 in parallel
This lm317 variable power supply can supply a voltages from 1.2V to 30V with a current 3 amperes, just as the title of this series based on LM317T voltage regulator, the LM317T regulator provide around 1.5 amperes on the heatsink, so by installing a parallel two or three of them will get a voltage source capable of providing 3 amperes. Obviously this also depends on the transformer used. (more…)

Video: Business Formal vs Business Casual (2:29 minutes)
So, for more formal interactions like career fairs and interviews, hopefully it's clearer now why suits are usually your best option. But if you're going to a fair as an information seeker instead of a job seeker, or if you're attending an event like a conference, informational interview, job shadow, etc., a suit may make you overdressed.
For these kinds of interactions, you always want to dress professionally—no ripped jeans, flip-flops, or T-shirts with obscenities on them. Yes, we (probably) all have these items in our wardrobe, but save them for your friends, not a potential employer.
Follow the "dress essentials for everyone," and consider the items below when you're picking out what to wear . . .
- Khakis
- Sweater
- Dress pants
- Blazer
- Dress shoes
- Loafers
- Button-down shirt
And remember, when in doubt, check with an insider (your employer contact or Career Advisor, for example) about what the appropriate dress in a particular situation might be!

Saltmarsh cordgrass, Atlantic cordgrass, Smooth cordgrass Spartina alterniflora
Description: Spartina alterniflora is a rhizomatous perennial grass that grows up to four feet tall. The stems are hollow and hairless. The leaf blades are 1/4 to 3/5 inches wide. The leaves lack auricles and have ligules that consist of a fringe of hairs. The flowers are inconspicuous and are borne in greatly congested spikes, two to three inches long (Hitchcock et al. 1969).
Habitat: Spartina alterniflora is a plant of the intertidal zone, where it colonizes mudflats or sandflats in saline or brackish water.
Distribution: Native habitat from Quebec and Newfoundland to Florida and Texas. Spartina alterniflora is also planted in many other parts of the world for estuary reclamation. This species is considered a non-native invasive plant on the U.S. Pacific coast.
Status: In its native habitat, this species is highly productive in its ability to export detritus to estuarine systems and is highly regarded for erosion control. Because of their ability to trap sediment, Spartina species have been planted in many parts of the world for estuary reclamation. Though Spartina alterniflora is valued in its native habitat its ability to trap sediment is a cause for concern in Washington, Oregon, and California.

The Western Aquatic Plant Management Society
Estuarine and palustrine (freshwater) wetlands are important coastal habitats, functioning as nursery/nesting and foraging areas for wildlife, including commercially and recreationally important species off in fish, shellfish, and waterbirds. Wetlands also contribute other important ecosystem services such as filtration of waterborne contaminants, stabilization of sediments and shoreline, and protection from flood waters.
In many areas along the Gulf Coast, human population is expected to increase in the coming decades. Large tracts of undeveloped land along the Gulf Coast identified as palustrine wetlands are prime targets for conversion to the human built environment. The conversion of habitat is influenced by a mix of regulatory and non-regulatory management decisions and activities.
An initial assessment of land use/land cover data recently released by the NOAA Coastal Change Analysis Program (C-CAP) indicates that palustrine wetland habitat may be under greater stress than estuarine wetlands in some areas along the Gulf Coast due to increasing development pressure.
CSWGCIN assessed the impact of coastal development and other stressors on the distribution of palustrine and estuarine wetlands in the Gulf of Mexico Coastal Zone. The displayed land use/land cover maps and change analysis charts details the changes in distribution of wetland habitats along the Gulf of Mexico Coast between 1996 and 2005.
The NOAA C-CAP land cover classification is based on Landsat Thematic Mapper satellite imagery. The data have a spatial resolution of 30meters and a target accuracy of 85%. C-CAP data are mapped at 1:100,000 scale with 22 standard classes representing major landscape types. C-CAP classification is supported by ground truthing and the use of supplementary data such as U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) topographic maps, Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing system (TIGER) road data, and National Wetland Inventory (NWI) data. In an effort to be consistent with wetland classifications prepared by other agencies, the wetland data included in the C-CAP Coastal Land Cover Classification System are based on the Coward in Wetland and Deep water Habitats classification developed in 1979. Detailed information describing the C-CAP methodology can be found online at http://www.csc.noaa.gov/crs/lca/pdf/protocol.pdf.

Importance of Safety Netting
Workplace safety is a top priority in all establishments. Not only are there rules and regulations that require employers to ensure the safety of their employees at work, but there are many reasons why ensuring safety at work by using safety netting is beneficial. Installing safety nettings at work can minimise and eliminate the risk of personal injury, such as falling objects from shelves, which will reduce the possibility that your company will be involved in costly legal claim. Workers will feel more secure if there are safety nets in high risk areas and they will be able to perform their tasks more efficiently. Also, by providing the necessary safety equipment, workers will feel that they are being treated better and be more productive as a result.
What is a safety net?
There are many types of safety nets including height safety nets - commonly used to prevent people from injuring themselves in the case of an accidentally fall from a distance. Other types of nets can be used to stop objects falling from shelves or stop customers from entering an area where there are likely to be hazards. Safety nets can be used in any field, but there are several industries that are known to rely on safety netting, especially industries involved in constructing or maintenance of buildings as well as those specialising in storage.
Safety nets for warehouse or storeroom
For warehouse or storage room owners, utilisation of various kinds of safety netting is a must. Store rooms are high-risks areas. For efficient storage, most establishments use pallet racks that store heavy objects up to a considerable height. These storage systems may be efficient but are nevertheless prone to accidents. A single accident involving a heavy object falling from a pallet rack's topmost portion may possibly severely injure an unsuspecting worker. One way to prevent such unnecessary injury is to ensure proper racking in the workplace through the use of pallet nets.
Pallet corner nets are usually installed around the corners of the pallet, an area where employees usually walk throughout the workday. Rack backstops can also be installed to stop the fall of objects from the top of a pallet. Having pallet corner nets and rack backstops will not only ensure the safety of your employees, but it will also help prevent your stock from sustaining damage. Furthermore, safety nets can help your business maintain accurate inventory as falling items can be easily retrieved and accounted for.
How to get the right safety nets
There are a number of suppliers of safety nets, but that does not mean that you should buy cheapest product that you see. Cost may be a big element in buying equipment, but it should never be the controlling factor. You should consider the reputation of the supplier and make sure that they produce reliable products and services. Harcon are a leading company and trusted by many people across the UK.

September 9th - October 28th
Ron Krueck and Mark Sexton have worked in partnership for over 35 years. Reflections focuses on works - specifically chairs - from their commissions in the 1980s which propelled Krueck+Sexton's career.
Ron Krueck was born in 1946 in Cincinnati, Ohio, where, in his early years, he was exposed to art in the local art museum and was encouraged to draw. He chose to study architecture at the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago, where he was impressed with Crown Hall, designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. During the summers, while studying at IIT, Krueck traveled, thinking he could gain more architectural insights from seeing the world's great cities and monuments than from working. After he received his B.A. from IIT in 1970, Krueck took a job at the Chicago office of C.F. Murphy, now Jahn, and then with the office of Hammond Beeby. In 1975 he left the practice of architecture to study painting and drawing at the Art Institute of Chicago, until he opened his office with the commission of The Steel and Glass House in 1979.
The studio continues to be influenced by Krueck's interest in art, as well as by his early education in the Modernist doctrines at IIT. Krueck had worked with Mark Sexton for ten years when they established the office of Krueck & Sexton Architects in 1991. Krueck has taught at the Graduate School of Design at Harvard University, and at the Illinois Institute of Technology, a position he held until 2012. Krueck's built work has received numerous design awards, and his architectural drawings are in museum collections and have been exhibited in exhibitions worldwide since 1981. Krueck is active in Chicago's cultural affairs and serves on boards and committees of related interest. Krueck was elected to the Interior's Hall of Fame, as well as to the College of Fellows of the American Institute of Architects in 1992.
Mark Sexton is a founding partner of Krueck + Sexton Architects and, along with Ronald Krueck, designs and manages all of the firm's work. Mark is responsible for the development and execution of design ideas, and for the coordination of project teams. His dedication to craftsmanship, material, and detail enables the firm's built work to express the values of modern design with a timeless quality.
Mark has worked with Ron Krueck since graduating from the Illinois Institute of Technology in 1980. He became a member of the AIA College of Fellows in 2006. Mark serves the GSA Design Excellence Program on their National Registry of Peer Professionals as well as the School of the Art Institute of Chicago Advisory Design Council and the IIT College of Architecture Board of Overseers. He also teaches an Architecture Engineering and Design course at the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Northwestern University.

Is it impossible for you to imagine this year's likely presidential nominees without thinking of a GIF of Claire Danes crying? You may be suffering from Election Malaise, and you're not alone. Judging from the volume of #NeverTrump and #NeverClinton stories, there are at least dozens of Americans just like you.
But that doesn't mean you need to spend a lot of time daydreaming about hypothetical third parties you could start! Those are a lot of work! There are already a handful of time-honored options for people excited about voting, if not about the candidates on display. Although many frustrated voters will probably just end up voting for one of the main candidates, here are some other alternatives for those determined not to change their mind.
1. A Third-Party Candidate, Perhaps?
People have been talking about third-party candidates so much that you'd think it was the 2016 election's safe word — say it once and this whole uncomfortable scenario vanishes. If you're starving for a chance to vote for someone who hasn't been haunting your TV set for the past year, you've got some options. They never get many votes, and you might hear that voting for a third-party candidate is akin to taking your ballot and throwing it in an outhouse, but they are there for you if you need them, like reruns of Friends.
All voters won't have the same options, however. Every state has its own rules for how candidates can get on the ballot, and some are easier to follow than others. Richard Winger, who edits Ballot Access News, says that Colorado has the most permissive laws. In 2008 and 2012, it broke the record for most presidential candidates on a ballot, with 16 people running. There was a candidate from the Objectivist Party, a nominee from America's Party, and four people running with parties that had something to do with socialism. If you wanted to run for president in Colorado those years, all you needed was $500. This year, Winger says, the fee was raised to $1,000, but he doesn't think it will deter the people "who live to see their name on a ballot."
2. Or Maybe People From Third Parties You've Actually Heard Of?
The Green Party and the Libertarian Party manage to get their candidates on ballots in a majority of states, and attempt to increase their reach every year. The very conservative Constitution Party usually ends up on quite a few ballots too. Most other third-party candidates will be unique to one state, which Winger thinks is more than a little nonsensical. "You have these people running for president, and some Americans can vote for them and others can't. That's silly."
3. A Write-In Candidate
If none of those third parties do it for you, or you live in a state where it's impossible to get on the ballot, you can always vote for a write-in candidate. Becoming one usually entails a bit more than setting up a Facebook group: In a few states, the would-be president still has to fill out paperwork or get a petition signed before officials will post her name as an option in polling places. Write-in candidates are sometimes asked to provide a list of people who would serve as their Electoral College representatives, just in case they win a state.
4. Justin Bieber Or Jesus Christ
Or you can always vote for your mom. Maybe George Washington? There is a long history of Americans voting for joke candidates like Mickey Mouse, Jesus Christ, and Lizard People. We talked to a guy earlier this year who voted for his dead dog. Unfortunately, if you take this route, your vote won't matter. Officials usually won't even bother to count said vote, unless your imaginary would-be president of choice filed the correct paperwork.
Election workers probably won't find your attempt at levity amusing, either. As the former Arizona elections director told Bloomberg in 2004, "My friends used to write me in for county attorney, and I used to think it was funny. [That was] until I got into the election administration. It takes time to process those." If enough people vote for a joke candidate, it can be pretty funny, though. In 2012, 4,000 people in Georgia voted for Charles Darwin. The incumbent representative who won the race had said that the theory of evolution was a lie "straight from the pit of hell."
5. None Of These Candidates
"Nobody" or "none of the above" are also popular write-in choices, but in Nevada, voting for "None of These Candidates" has been a state-sanctioned option since 1975. The state, along with a handful of others, doesn't even allow voters to pick write-in candidates. This option seems like a suitable compromise for those residents eager to be patriotic even when they can't find it in their hearts to fill in a bubble next to a candidate's name. However, voting for "None of These Candidates" won't prevent one of those candidates from winning. Even when "None of These Candidates" comes in first place — and it has — the first runner-up who is not a ray of light shining on an empty chair gets the honor of representing an electorate that doesn't want them. In the 2014 Democratic gubernatorial primary, more voters sided with "None of These Candidates" than any of the other eight people actually running. "None of These Candidates" has only won in primaries so far, but this election cycle has proven itself to be particularly special.

Ok we survived the Valentines holiday and have a several weeks until Easter. Hopefully you threw out the rest of the chocolates! If you haven't yet please do. I know the grocery store is full of easter candy already and dang those Jelly Beans are so tempting. Before you steer you cart down the Easter Isle, like it's on autopilot. Try these easy ways to clean up your diet and lifestyle therefore making the Easter Isle a little less tempting. If you are feeling good and eating right you can walk right past those temptations easily, because you are full of energy, sleeping better and taking steps to reduce your stress! Now do you really want to screw that up?
Try these easy tips to bring your body back into balance:
- Drink more water. Have a glass first thing when you get up. Better yet, have some warm water with 1/2 a lemon or a drop or two of DoTerra lemon oil, if you have sensitive teeth.
- Yay we are coming in spring, which means more greens in the grocery store. Grab em, eat em, put them in your smoothies or juice them. A green smoothie or juice will revitalize and energize you on daily basis. I know, I hate to miss a day!
- Cut our the white stuff in your diet. Eat more whole grains. Don't get tempted by all the gluten-free products out there, they are usually full of sugar, weird chemicals to make them more like their wheat counterpart and many times too much fat. Stick with whole grains like, brown rice, quinoa, millet, if you can handle gluten, barely. I had dinner with a friend last night who recently gave up wheat, she is amazed at how much better she feels.
- Cook more! I know it sometimes easier to grab something on the go or bring home a pizza, but make meals that can be repurposed into something else later in the week. Cook something once eat it twice.
- Eat less or eliminate all together red meat, dairy, sugar, chemicalize and processed junk food. Consume less coffee, alcohol and tobacco. We all know this but when we get stressed many of these are the ones we want to go. Next I'll give some idea's to knock that habit out too!
- Develop easy and reliable habits to nurture yourself. Self-care is key, dry brushing or using a warm wash cloth to exfoliate and massage before a shower is one way to connect with your body. Our skin is our biggest organ. Treat it like the food you eat, use natural or organic skin products, eliminate chemicals.
- Make sure your relationships are healthy and they support you.
- Find a physical activity you like and do it!
- Find work you love or find a way to the work you do.
- Develop a spiritual practice. Yoga, Meditation, Tai Chi, a church or group that discusses things of a more spiritual nature. Find a group where you feel supported to be you!
The list is pretty simple. We all know it. The hard part is setting your life up in a way that it works. That's where a coach comes in. We help you set goals that you can measure and keep you on track and accountable with them. We are the cheerleader on the sidelines watching you shine and learning more about self-love and feeling amazing in your life.

Climate change has done more good than harm so far and is likely to continue doing so for most of this century. This is not some barmy, right-wing fantasy; it is the consensus of expert opinion. Yet almost nobody seems to know this. Whenever I make the point in public, I am told by those who are paid to insult anybody who departs from climate alarm that I have got it embarrassingly wrong, don't know what I am talking about, must be referring to Britain only, rather than the world as a whole, and so forth.
The chief benefits of global warming include: fewer winter deaths; lower energy costs; better agricultural yields; probably fewer droughts; maybe richer biodiversity. It is a little-known fact that winter deaths exceed summer deaths — not just in countries like Britain but also those with very warm summers ..
The greatest benefit from climate change comes not from temperature change but from carbon dioxide itself. It is not pollution, but the raw material from which plants make carbohydrates and thence proteins and fats. As it is an extremely rare trace gas in the air — less than 0.04 per cent of the air on average — plants struggle to absorb enough of it. On a windless, sunny day, a field of corn can suck half the carbon dioxide out of the air. Commercial greenhouse operators therefore pump carbon dioxide into their greenhouses to raise plant growth rates.
Britain's climate policies — subsidising windmills, wood-burners, anaerobic digesters, electric vehicles and all the rest — is due to cost us £1.8 trillion over the course of this century. In exchange for that Brobdingnagian sum, we hope to lower the air temperature by about 0.005˚C — which will be undetectable by normal thermometers. The accepted consensus among economists is that every £100 spent fighting climate change brings £3 of benefit.
So we are doing real harm now to impede a change that will produce net benefits for 70 years. That's like having radiotherapy because you are feeling too well. I just don't share the certainty of so many in the green establishment that it's worth it. It may be, but it may not.

Son is characterized by its upright ballroom-like posture, emphasis on presentation, and dancing to the percussion in a timing called "contratiempo" (the original version of "on2").
CUBAN CASINO (aka "Cuban Salsa")
When the younger generation danced son in Havana's casinos, they added more varied positioning, inside turns, and eventually the incorporation of elements from Afro-Cuban folkloric dances. Sometimes called "Cuban salsa," the true term from popular Cuban dancing originates from people's desire to "dance how they do in the casino."

Asus Zenfone 2 announced with 5.5 inch 1080p display and 4GB RAM
Asus which made it clear with the Zenfone series that it is going to bring out some amazing devices has come out with yet another aggressively priced feature rich smartphone called the Zenfone 2. This announcement was made in CES 2015 by pricing the device to compete with companies like OnePlus, Xiaomi and other similar devices.
Coming to the features the Zenfone 2 comes with a 5.5 inch 1080p display which is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 3 and has IPS technology. The device is being launched as two variants with difference in processor, internal storage and RAM and priced differently as well. From the design point of view the volume rockers in the device are placed on the back of the device below the Camera much like the LG devices and with this the device measures just 3.9 mm in the edges and 10.9 mm in the center.
- Zenfone 2 Base Model comes with Intel Z3560 at 1.8 GHz, with 2GB RAM and 16GB internal storage
- Zenfone 2 Top Models comes with Intel Z3580 at 2.3 GHz, with 4GB RAM and 64GB internal storage
The 4GB RAM in the top model of Zenfone 2 in first of its kind in a smartphone and Asus is surely taking the competition head on with this device. The Zenfone 2 comes with Dual SIM card slot and a MicroSD card slot to expand memory further. It comes with 13 megapixel rear or primary camera and a 5 megapixel front facing camera. The device runs on Android 5.0 Lollipop with Zen UI layered over it.
The Primary camera has Dual LED flash and Dual tone to help capture more natural looking colors and Optical Image Stabilisation is also available. With the f/2.0 aperture speed and the presence of PixelMaster technology which we have seen in the earlier model low light photography is going to be an added advantage for this device.
The device comes with a 3000 mAh battery which is an upgrade from the previous model and good one too. It also comes with quick charge capability to help charge the device from 0% to 60% in just 39 minutes. The Zenfone 2 is available in all the colors which were available in the earlier model – Osmium Black, Sheer Gold, Glacier Gray, Glamor Red and Ceramic White. The brushed metal finish is what I love the most giving it a premium feel and look overall.
Coming to the availability of the device it is said to be available for purchase from 2nd Quarter of 2015 and is being priced at $199 for the base model and expected to be pricing at $299 for the top end model. If this is true then this will be most sort after device in this price range and the likes of Xiaomi and OnPlus should start producing some great products to compete with this device.

I wrote a story on acne for the April issue of Allure, and was shocked to find out that about 50 million Americans are diagnosed with acne every year. That's more than the entire population of Australia or Canada. And you know what's even more surprising? "The incidence of adult female acne is increasing every year," says Joshua Zeichner, an acne specialist and director of cosmetic and clinical research in dermatology at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York."And no one really knows why. It's like having a complacent personality versus an argumentative one — histrionic skin fights back against bacteria we're all covered in and breaks out."
The fact that scientists don't know the exact cause of acne explains why there's no real cure for a skin condition that so many of us have. (That 50 million number, by the way, includes anyone who's seeking help for chronic acne, or who gets one pimple a month.)
But things are starting to look up. An acne vaccine that would change the way we approach skin care for ever is in the works. Imagine an entire generation that doesn't know what it's like to touch up concealer before meetings, pray that a new medication will finally clear up their skin, or wake up to scars from past breakouts?
Inside a lab at the University of California, San Diego, a group of scientists is working to eradicate acne for good. But developing a vaccine for acne has unique complications. "Acne is caused, in part, by P. acnes bacteria that are with you your whole life — and we couldn't create a vaccine for the bacteria because, in some ways, P. acnes are good for you," says Eric C. Huang, the project's lead researcher. "But we found an antibody to a toxic protein that P. acnes bacteria secrete on skin — the protein is associated with the inflammation that leads to acne." That means the vaccine can block the negative, acne-causing effects of P. acnes bacteria without killing the bacteria themselves.
So far, it's worked on skin biopsies that the researchers collected from acne patients. "The next step is testing it on patients in clinical trials," says Huang. The first phase of those trials, which could take one to two years, will be underway soon.
Until the acne vaccine is a reality, here are ways you can treat breakouts, stat:

The former Oasis man is working on the follow-up to 2011's 'Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds'
Noel Gallagher posted a photo from inside the recording studio earlier today (May 29), his 47th birthday.
The picture, which you can see below, was tweeted from the official Noel Gallagher account, which is maintained by his label Sour Mash Records.
— Noel Gallagher (@NoelGallagher) May 29, 2014
Gallagher is currently working on his second solo album, the follow-up to 2011's 'Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds'. According to his long-term associate Mark Coyle the album has the spirit of Oasis' debut. Coyle, who co-produced 'Definitely Maybe', told NME he heard demos for Gallagher's new album back in February, following recording sessions in New York.
PHOTOS: Noel Gallagher's 50 funniest quotes
"Noel's new album is fucking great," said Coyle. "It reminds me in some respects of the spirit of 'Definitely Maybe', because it's so obviously exciting. That boy is from a different planet, and even the fans won't believe how utterly amazing it is."
Coyle, a friend of Gallagher's since they were both in Inspiral Carpets' road crew in the early '90s, said Gallagher had written between 50 to 60 songs for the new album. "He's not exactly struggling for an 11th song to complete the album," said Coyle. "It's pouring out of him and he's currently whittling it all down into an album. The new record will be seismic. It's so explosive that, on the day it comes out, Virgin Trains won't be able to cope with all the people trying to flee the chaos."
