Taking over Tumblr will devour about one-fifth of the $5.4 billion in cash that Yahoo had in its accounts at the end of March. »Read Full Article

Gwen Moore sees link between military culture and sexual assaults in military
U.S. Rep. Gwen Moore, a sexual assault victim, says the military culture is partly to blame for the level of sexual assaults in the military.
"When you look at the mission of the military and military culture, which is about aggression and about war, it shouldn't surprise us at all that sexual assault would emerge as a huge issue that they need to look at," the Milwaukee Democrat told host Alex Witt on Sunday on MSNBC.
Moore added: "Again, if you're looking at a military culture of aggression and violence, I think it's very, very easy for it to seep over into sexual assault."
President Barack Obama promised last week to "leave no stone unturned" in an effort to halt the abuse. A Pentagon report says up to 26,000 military members may have been sexually assaulted last year.(37)

Lawmakers to take up Scott Walker DNA proposal
Madison — Wisconsin lawmakers are set this week to consider Gov. Scott Walker's plan to take DNA from anyone arrested for a felony and anyone convicted of any crime.
Wisconsin currently collects DNA only from convicted felons and sex offenders. Walker's executive budget lays out nearly $6 million for the initiative. The money largely would come from an existing $250 surcharge on felony offenders and a new $200 surcharge on misdemeanor offenders.
Twenty-five other states and the federal government take DNA upon felony arrests. Civil rights advocates, though, still see Walker's plan as an invasion of privacy.
The Legislature's Joint Finance Committee is working to revise Walker's budget before forwarding it to the full Senate and Assembly. The panel is expected to review the DNA proposal Thursday.

Walmart planned for Brown Deer gets preliminary boost
The Brown Deer Community Development Authority is recommending a new development agreement for a Walmart proposed at the former Lowe's home improvement store, reports Michael Meidenbauer atThe Village Board will consider that recommendation Monday. It would replace the development agreement the village had with Lowe's, which closed the store in 2011. That agreement guaranteed the building's assessed value was high enough to generate enough property taxes to repay village funds used to help finance the building.
The new agreement calls for Lowe's to make a payment to help reduce that debt, with Walmart agreeing to invest at least $11 million in the site in order to generate property taxes to pay off the rest of that debt.
All of this is contingent on the village approving Walmart's site plans. The property is already zoned for big box retail use.

Proposal gives Scott Walker administration more power to sell state property
Madison - Gov. Scott Walker's administration would gain broad authority to sell state property - including prisons, highways, heating plants and university dormitories - under a plan legislators will take up Tuesday.
Proceeds would be used to chip away at the state's $8 billion debt, but the state entities that formerly owned the properties might not see any benefit from the sales. So, a dorm built with student fees could potentially be sold to pay down the debt for a highway expansion, or vice versa.
Critics say the plan that's part of the GOP governor's budget proposal could saddle the state with higher day-to-day costs - such as buying power and steam to heat prisons and dorms - after it sells the properties. »Read Full Article(275)

Bamboo Floors: Strand Woven, Laminate, Installation, and Cleaning
Bamboo Floors: Strand Woven, Laminate, Installation, and CleaningBamboo is holding strong as the poster child for sustainability, but not all bamboo is created equal. There are still questions, concerns, and considerations from "I hear they scratch easily" to "What are my color options?" to "Should I get the cheap stuff or pay a little extra for the goods?" Like any flooring decisions, it depends on the usage. If you're putting it in the kids' playroom or laundry room/dog pen, it's going to get beat up (like anything else). If you're putting it in the dining room, make sure you love the aesthetic above all else. This might seem like common sense, because it is. So, where do I go from here? Here's what you need to know for making a decision about bamboo flooring: You get what you pay for If you're going to put bamboo in a kitchen, den, or other area that gets a lot of foot traffic, variety of use, and so on, use the good stuff - Strand Woven Bamboo is the most durable. How do we know? There's actually an industry-accepted rating system called The Janka Ball test which measures the force required to embed a 0.444″ steel ball to half its diameter in wood. Accepted industry wide, this test reflects a particular species' ability to withstand denting and wear. What makes one bamboo variety better than another? Age. The best, highly rated bamboos are usually aged 5.5 - 6 years. The technical crowd will go on and on here but for all practical purposes, that's what you're paying for: longer growth means a more mature, harder, more durable raw material. And yes, technically, bamboo isn't a "hardwood" at all; bamboo is more like a plant (grows like a weed, which is why it's considered more sustainable than woods that have longer growth cycles). Installation As always, if you can afford it and you're a true Lazy E, you'll just let the pros handle it. But if you're feeling lucky (or something like that), you can take the DIY approach. Bamboo laminate flooring rests on top of an installation surface, like tile. You put that stuff down, then you snap in and/or nail down the bamboo. If you're going DIY, definitely get the slotted, tongue and groove variety — you can thank us later. Additional concerns Besides the quality of the raw bamboo itself, pay attention to what adhesives are used to bond the board into shape. If you're particularly concerned with indoor air quality, you'll want to pay extra attention to be certain that you're not getting a chemical, toxin, or VOC-rich adhesive. Dark bamboo finishes are made by (basically) cooking the bamboo to color, so all other things being equal, the darker colors are less durable. If you leave in an area with humidity issues or there is a particularl... |

Rating: 4.00 out of 1 votes cast
Very cute shoes!
I got these shoes in the leopard. They are really cute, and they look great on my foot. I wear a size 10, and they are very flattering on. I want to say that I do have a small bunion on my right foot which causes problems with some shoes. These shoes are very comfortable and roomy, although my right foot is a little swollen all the time. So, that shoe is a little more snug than the left -- but still comfortable! I didn't give them 5 stars because of the material. It's man-made (vinyl probably), but unless you get up close, you can't really tell. I'm keeping them -- and I'll probably order another color!

Washington, DC Saturday, June 11, 2011
On June 11th, 1963, Alabama Governor George Wallace blocked the admittance of two African American students, James Hood and Vivian Malone, to the University of Alabama. This action was consistent with his campaign promise of segregation.
United States Deputy Attorney General Nicholas Katzenbach and federalized Alabama National Guardsmen made Governor Wallace step aside. Later that evening President John F. Kennedy addressed the nation, characterizing the civil rights struggle as a moral issue.
Coming up, Nicholas Katzenbach, Ted Sorensen and James Hood discuss that incident and the civil rights movement in the 1960's.

Iver Bernstein discusses the causes and consequences of the New York City Draft Riots of mid-July 1863, that resulted from the federal draft for additional troops to fight in the war. Mr. Bernstein spoke at the U.S. Capitol Historical Society's 2012 Civil War Symposium.
Open for business in 1861 and located about six blocks from the capitol building, the United States Government Printing Office still prints the Congressional Record each day that the House and Senate are in session. We visited to learn the history of GPO and to see some of their historic printing jobs, including the "Official Records of the War of the Rebellion," which took twenty years to print, and the twenty-seven volume "Warren Commission Report on the Assassination of President Kennedy."
Historian and author Craig Symonds talks about the various naval aspects of the war – from technological developments, to the battles themselves; from the Union blockade, to the rivers of the Western Theater. Symonds is history professor emeritus at the U.S. Naval Academy, and the author of "The Civil War at Sea." He presented this talk at the Smithsonian's Ripley Center, on the National Mall.
Guests Charles Evans Jr. and Victor DeNoble discuss the documentary film that chronicles DeNoble's unexpected discovery of an ingredient in tobacco which, the data revealed, when coupled with nicotine makes cigarettes more addictive. The research and the company's attempts to keep it private lead to Congressional testimony before a subcommittee of the House Energy and Commerce Committee. The movie details how this public revelation of DeNoble's findings led journalists, politicians, attorneys and scientists to join forces against the tobacco industry, which ultimately resulted in the first ever federal regulation of the tobacco industry. Evans discusses how and why he went about making the film, which began when he first watched Dr. DeNoble's testimony on C-SPAN in 1994. DeNoble talks about growing up in New York, his early work at the Philip Morris Company and what it was like to testify before Congress on such a controversial subject.
Historians Craig Symonds, James McPherson and Harold Holzer discuss the first day of the Battle of Gettysburg. The three-day battle fought in Pennsylvania from July 1st through 3rd, 1863, was the bloodiest of the war, resulting in an estimated 51 thousand total casualties. This is the first in a two-part series on the battle, hosted by the New-York Historical Society.
Douglas Brinkley talks about his book, "Cronkite," which chronicles the life of long time CBS Evening News anchorman Walter Cronkite, often referred to as "the most trusted man in America."
Historians consider several developments in naval technology over the course of the war. They discuss ironclad gunboats, Confederate efforts to break the Union Blockade, and spar torpedo boats. This event was part of a symposium on Technology and the Civil War hosted by the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History.
Ted Widmer is the editor of "Listening In: The Secret White House Recordings of John F. Kennedy." The book contains two audio CDs with 75 minutes of recorded conversations from the oval office, cabinet meetings, telephone calls, and private dictations during Kennedy's presidency. Mr. Widmer describes how he was approached by the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation to select and introduce and transcribe the recordings. He shares numerous clips throughout the program including a phone call from President Kennedy to Defense department advisors about the best way to board inbound Soviet ships during the Cuban missile crisis. We hear as President Kennedy calls Dwight Eisenhower and Harry Truman seeking advice. Widmer also chose to share the contentious discussions between Kennedy and then Mississippi Governor Ross Barnett as they dealt with the riots over the enrollment of James Meredith as the first black student to attend the University of Mississippi. Widmer also reveals a more light-hearted side to the President in several of the recordings. Widmer reflects upon his academic training at Harvard, as well as his experiences serving both President Bill Clinton, during his presidency, and Hillary Clinton, during her time as Secretary of State.
An exhibition at the Smithsonian American Art Museum explores how artists depicted the crisis of conflict as it was happening. Smithsonian Curator Eleanor Jones Harvey reveals how the war can be seen in seemingly unrelated works such as landscape paintings; and also examines the work of several soldier artists. American History TV attended a press briefing and took a tour of the galleries. This is part one of a two-part program.
