Now that I got in touch with my moving team and my internet provider, I can tell you that I strictly WONT be able to connect to the internet from the 8TH march 2013 to the 11TH march 2013 INCLUDED.
During this time, I (nor VirtualInsanity Resident) won't be able AT ALL to handle customer service due to the lack of connection.
ON TOP OF THAT, I have really much to do with that moving thing due to the administrative, boxing, unboxing, painting, furniture building and un-building thing… So I won't be able to get on the Internet MUCH from about 22nd feb until about 20th march 2013.
Please EXCUSE ME for the delays. Be sure that if you have to wait for too much, I'll try to help as quick as possible whenever I can but all that I ask is for patience.
Since moving is one of the most stressful events in life with marriage and losing someone close, I think that you'll understand that.
Thank you.
Just a quick information about [VIRTUAL/INSANITY]…
We are in the middle of a bunch of changes in real life. I restarted working (again) 2 weeks ago and we are moving from our flat in a few weeks. We therefore have now few time build and create stuff. Please be patient until we are all set at the new flat.
Just like last year, we'll be joining the Jack or Jill Hunt 2.0 but on the Female Path.
And here is our contribution.
In a few weeks, [VIRTUAL/INSANITY] will be 4 years old and we can't be anything but recognizing to all of the customers, fans, designers, bloggers, who helped us during these long years.
But everything changes and in may, after 3 years living with a disabling chronic disease named fibromyalgia, and with the support of my rheumatologist, I've been restarting to work as a job coach in real life. It gave me a lot of satisfaction and I'm not intending to stop.
But that leads us (me and my co-designer and first-life husband Moolfryt Klang, who works full time as psychologist) to have way less time to take care of Second Life. Less time to build, less time to follow the regular events, less time to know what's new, less time to deal with the sim, the mall, …
Since a few weeks, we've been thinking about how we see our future in Second Life, through those changes. And we've sadly come to the point that we can't cope with the sim any more. This is way too much of investment for us, and with a big part of collection getting older, we don't need that much space any more.
When I do something, I want to do it right and entierly. I don't want to *pretend* I can deal with all of that work if it is not the case any more. This wouldn't be honest to myself and stressful, and it wouldn't be honest to you.
We therefore decided to move our mainstore to a simple land on a sim you may know, Dark Tranquility, which is SAKIDE's home since years.
We'll say goodbye to Bada Bing tomorrow.
And you'll get the landmark in a few hours, once we are able to open. The landmarks will be progressively changed in all of our malls stores vendors… And it may take a bit of time too !
Now for the questions you may ask :
✿ Can you summarize what's changing ?
- The store is moving.
- The mall is closing.
- The collection will be smaller.
- The older collections will be progressively be added to the marketplace so that you can still purchase it out there.
✿ Will you stop building and release new stuff ?
Definitely not.
The store is my creative outlet and I don't want to let it go.
But building in SL is a huge work, not only because building can be complicated but also because, if you want your store to be and keep succesful, you have to be reactive.
Events come and go. When one stops, another one is coming. You never have the chance to take a break. In one month, Valentine's day is coming. A few weeks after, it's time for St Patrick's day. Just after, Easter is on the corner. And then summer will be there. You'll have noticed that my XMAS collection was way smaller than before. This is the why. I don't have the time any more to be that reactive.
But I'll still build, I'll still participate to events. But on my own rythm. And I'll prolly be able to make more good quality stuff that way.
Racing to releasing new stuff isn't any good for creativity, believe me.
✿ Which products are you going to discontinue ?
All of the nails are staying. Most of the make-up too. A big part of the jewelry too. Most likely, the items you seem to prefer will stay. But what is older, outdated or what doesn't fit anymore with my vision of the store will be discontinued.
It may take some time but I'll update the marketplace with the discontinued items so that you can still purchase it that way, though.
So you don't have to worry. I'll just need a bit of time but it will be fine.
✿ Why are you moving to Dark Tranquility ?
I had my building platform there since a very long time.
Kinu Mayako, SAKIDE's owner is a long-term friend. When I asked her if she knew where I could set up a parcel (without getting in trouble with lag and bad neighbours), she said she'd be able to rent me some land on her sim. So I said yes. And I am very thankful to her.
✿ I liked your store… Are you changing the lay out ?
No. I am keeping my build, which looks so like [V/I].
However, the store will be in a skybox with just a bit of trees and flowers around it. It will be a way smaller place… But more cosy :).
✿ Are you closing the sim because it is too expensive ?
A sim is costy for sure. But that is not the reason why we are closing it.
I'll be re-opening a sim if I ever get more time again to give it a 100% investment.
✿ What about customer service ?
This isn't as if I wasn't logging in any more, right ? We still are logging in everyday. So customer service just happens as usual. Notecard VirtualInsanity resident with your questions and we'll get back to you.
✿ I liked the stores at your mall :'( …
I like those stores too. This is the reason why I'll include in the next notecard the LMs to their mainstores ! ^-^.
✿ When will you be done transfering the "older" items to the MP ?
I can't tell when. It will depend on my RL work and I'll also be moving in RL in a few weeks too. I'm going to be very busy.
So it may take a while but you can also notice that a lot of items have been recently added.
We'll therefore do it as fast as possible but please be patient !
Thanks for reading !

Natalie Portman Marries Dancer: Can a Hollywood Marriage Last?

Sorry guys -- Natalie Portman is officially off the market. The beautiful Oscar-winner tied the knot on Saturday night with her fiancé of two years, French dancer and choreographer Benjamin Millepied, a source confirmed for People.
Portman, 31, met Millepied, 35, on the set of "Black Swan," where he was a choreographer. In December 2010, the couple announced they were engaged and expecting their first child. Their son, Aleph, is now 14 months old.
We're happy for Natalie, who's been brimming with happiness since the day she announced her engagement. But we have to wonder ... can a Hollywood marriage even last? Especially when she is so much more famous than he is?

- Spider 2012/08/09 04:38:25YesIt is possible, however unlikely. I do not know either of them personally, so I can't begin to estimate their chance of happily ever after. It takes only one thing for a marriage to last... true love. If they love each other then they will never even joke about a divorce as such a thing would be unthinkable. True love means that they love each other more than themselves, seeking hapiness of the other before happiness for themselves. It is simple, but very few people have ever known it. It is also stupid, as it is selfless, and not many people are willing to be that stupid. It goes against human nature to love. Humans are selfish, greedy, and dishonest first and formost. How can something so evil ever learn about love? It should be obvious that as a race, humans are evil. Though some rare few... know love. I wish the best for Natalie and Benjamin. May they, a beautiful new family, know love.

I was thinking of some armour with a cowl. I don't care about armour ratings, purely aesthetics. I though either Elven or Plate Steel might look cool with a cowl, but I was wondering which one you thought looks better for a Ranger, of suggest anything else that looks better, preferably non-enchanted.

Despite their being wicked godless heathen foreigners, I've always considered the Burmese Government a decidedly GAFCON group of gentlemen. One of my great disappointments with respect to the recent Presidential election is how the United States' program to emulate Burma's admirable stance on security and the right to imprison liberals indefinitely – or better still just shoot them like baby moose - is now likely to be put on hold.
The recent news that Burmese officials have imprisoned a blogger for twenty years after finding him guilty of, among other things, "creating public alarm", shows that when it comes to getting tough on the kind of scum who try to clog the internet with something more than just titties and that funny clip of the monkey drinking his own pee, the Burmese government is setting an example for us all.
Another evil lad was also sentenced for publishing a poem in a weekly magazine called "Love Journal" (no prizes for imagining what filth you can expect to find in anything by that name) in which the first words of each line spelled out the message "Senior General Than Shwe is foolish with power".
Pictured here, it's obvious that there's nothing at all foolish about the Senior General, and I'm sure every one of those medals was awarded for an act of bravery which really did happen. Including the big one on his lower right, which is for saving the earth from an invasion of Kryptonites from the planet Xemu. Nor is it relevant to explain that "Than Shwe" is actually Burmese for "I am deeply insecure about the size of my penis."
Let us pray that one day we too might see this sort of "justice" dished out on those who deserve it: can you imagine a world where little David Virtue can gaol* anyone who disagrees with him? That's the kind of place Burma is - although unlike him the Burmese realise they're not actually Christians.
I'm Father Christian and I teach the Bible.
* I understand that as Sinners many of you will be puzzled by my spelling, but because I'm a Christian I will always be proud of my Biblical heritage, and there are some things I refuse to compromise.

Burma: Adopting a GAFCON approach to bloggers.

I enlarged the photo and I couldn't believe it!
The general has, if you notice on his left chest amoungst the medals a Charlie Chuckles Club Badge. I know, because I had one in the 1960's and I was very proud of it.
I'm not surprised that the General has his in pride of place on his chest. But how did he get it?
Never mind, he has it and you just try and take it from him! - November 13, 2008 at 2:32 AM
Oh my how I wish Peter Akinola and Henri Orombi would step in, listen, and offer solice to those misunderstood at the top...clearly, likeminded soulbrothers ought be best able to help oneanother to gain on personal stature, tempered justice, and a penis size that corresponds directly to headsize...always keeping our eyes on perfection (and security).

Many astute readers have noticed that President Obama wore a blue tie in the first debate and a red tie in the second debate. Mitt Romney did the opposite, wearing a red tie in the first encounter and a blue tie in the second. Do the candidates communicate before the debate to make sure they're not wearing the same thing?
No. It seems to be blind luck that Obama and Romney swapped tie colors in the first two debates. There is no record of wardrobe coordination between presidential campaigns, and the candidates don't see each other until they walk onto the stage. In fact, matching ties seem to be more the rule than the exception. Obama and John McCain both wore red ties in one of the 2008 debates, although McCain wore a light blue shirt instead of white. John Kerry and George W. Bush both went with dark suits, white shirts, and red ties in a 2004 debate. George W. Bush and Al Gore wore matching suits in 2000. Bill Clinton and Bob Dole went with different shades of red in 1996.
Presidential candidates don't have particularly eclectic interests in neckwear, largely because they don't want their clothing to be the focus of post-debate chatter. The last time a candidate made a big deal about his tie was at the 1976 vice presidential debate, when advisers recommended that Bob Dole change his after a pre-debate screen test. Dole invited reporters to join him and his new wife on a trip to a Houston department store to select a replacement. Back then, candidates went out of their way to show the press how relaxed they were on the day of the debate. (Walter Mondale, for his part, let reporters film him playing tennis before his clash with Dole.)
Wardrobe concerns are as old as the presidential debates themselves. When Richard Nixon came out for his technical check before the first televised presidential debate in 1960, producers realized that his light gray suit was an uncanny match for the backdrop. Worried that Nixon's outfit would disappear into the background, giving him a ghostly appearance on black-and-white television, they repainted the background in the last minutes. When the debate began, the paint behind the candidates was still wet.
Viewers who made it all the way through Tuesday's debate noticed that Michelle Obama and Ann Romney both wore bright pink. It's possible that the outfits were chosen to support National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, but the program's organizers told the Daily Beast they weren't aware of such plans.

When J.J. Abrams took over the "Star Trek" franchise in 2009, he boldly went where the series hadn't gone before — romantically — pairing Uhura with Spock. Many fans disliked the change. Some loved it. Others didn't care, because they just wanted to see Kirk and Spock make out.

Liferea 1.8 FAQ
- Why doesn't Liferea have feature X?
- Where can I get the sources?
- Where can I get a pre-compiled binary?
- What does "Liferea" stand for and how do I pronounce it?
- How to use DBUS to automatically add subscriptions?
- Security and Liferea
- Liferea is buggy! It does not close when I click on the window managers close button and the tray icon is activated.
- I want cookies!
- I don't like the HTML styles Liferea uses!
- How can I subscribe to Gmails inbox feed?
- How do I see my LiveJournal friend's friends-only entries?
- How do I subscribe to MySpace or Xanga feeds?
- Why do feed items keep being displayed as new?
- Liferea crashes on Ubuntu 10.x
- Liferea crashes too much.
- Q: Why doesn't Liferea have feature X?
- A: Please do NOT request new features! The project goal is to implement a simple feed reader. And you can be sure that the developer(s) will implement their own favourite features as soon as they have time to do so. If you really miss a feature please take the time to write a patch or even join the active development.
- Q: Where can I get the sources?
A: The easiest way is to download the source package
from the SourceForge project homepage.
If you are familiar with git you can also use the Liferea git repository provided by SourceForge.
You can check out the sources like this:
git clone git://liferea.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/liferea/liferea
For more detailed instructions have a look at the "Git Access" page at SourceForge. - Q: Where can I get a pre-compiled binary?
- A: We do not provide binaries, but a lot of different package maintainers do. To find out if your Linux distribution or Unix derivate provides an own package for Liferea have a look at the list of all known prebuilt packages in the installation section.
- Q: What does "Liferea" stand for and how do I pronounce it?
- A: "Liferea" is the abbreviation for Linux Feed Reader. It doesn't really matter how you pronounce it. I sounds pretty strange when trying to pronounce it like an English word so I'd suggest to pronounce it like a Latin word.
- Q: How to use DBUS to automatically add subscriptions?
A: To add a feed using the DBUS subscription interface you can use
the liferea-add-feed wrapper:
liferea-add-feed "http://feed.url.example.com/"
If you use Firefox 2 and newer you can use this script to configure Firefox to add new feed subscriptions directly to Liferea. - Q: Security and Liferea
A: Liferea might be quite functional but is not the best choice
when you consider security to be very important. There are some points you should know:
- When using feed or proxy authentication usernames and passwords are saved plain text in ~/.liferea/feedlist.opml. File Permissions: 0600. Ensure to use 1.9.4 or later with the GNOME keyring plugin enabled if you do not want this.
- The cache directory with the contentn database is user readable only. Contents are stored as plain text in the database.
- This list may not be complete!
- Q: Liferea is buggy! It does not close when I click on the window managers close button and the tray icon is activated.
A: We see this as a useful feature and not as a bug. The idea is that
the GUI consists of two interfaces both serving different usage
modes of the program. Requesting a close for one these interfaces
does not mean the whole thing - the program - is terminated. Closing
the window means "closing the window" for Liferea. It does not mean
"ending the application".
There are several other applications following the same approach: MS Outlook, licq, akregator, gaim, mail notification...
If you don't like this behaviour please have a look at the preferences. There you can configure the termination behaviour as you like. - Q: I want cookies!
- A: Liferea supports cookies provided by a text file ~/.liferea_1.8/cookies.txt which contains cookies in Netscape format. The easiest way is to copy the file from your Mozilla profile after you created the cookies with the browser.
- Q: I don't like the HTML styles Liferea uses!
- A: You can have your own stylesheet. Just place a liferea.css into ~/.liferea_1.8/. It will be loaded additionally to the default stylesheets so you can modify some or all style definitions. To learn about the styles have a look at the default stylesheet in <install root>/share/liferea/css.
- Q: How can I subscribe to Gmails inbox feed?
A: Google provides a Atom feed with a list of all new messages under "https://mail.google.com/mail/feed/atom". You can simply subscribe to this URL and Liferea will pop up an authentication dialog where you need to supply your Gmail login information.
Note: Your password will be saved in plain text in ~/.liferea_1.8/feedlist.opml! - Q: How do I see my LiveJournal friend's friends-only entries?
- A: Use the authenticated LiveJournal RSS feed. For example use http://www.livejournal.com/users/pigrew/data/rss?auth=digest. You will need to use the feed properties dialog box to set the username and password of your LiveJournal account.
- Q: How do I subscribe to MySpace or Xanga feeds?
A: For MySpaces RSS feeds subscribe to
and for Xanga feeds subscribe to
- Q: Why do feed items keep being displayed as new?
This is usually due to a bad feed which associated a
particular ID to multiple items. If you are experienced with syndication
formats please check the feed source code. If you find problems please
contact the author/webmaster of the feed. If not please submit a bug report including the URL of the problem
feed to the Liferea
bug tracker.
Note: If you experience this problem with a planet feed the reason might be that the planet feed does not provide unique item ids for one or all off its source feeds. If this is the case Liferea has no chance to match identical items. - Q: Liferea crashes on Ubuntu 10.x.
- A: We continuously get reports of Ubuntu users experiencing regular crashes. Most of them report that the problem can be solved by removing "wins" from /etc/nsswitch.conf (e.g. Ubuntu 446649).
- Q: Liferea crashes too much.
- A: We hear this complaint a lot, but we rarely do get information on how it crashed. If you find a way to make Liferea crash, we would love to know about it. Please send us a copy of the output of running Liferea with the --debug-all flag, plus a backtrace if possible. To create a backtrace, open up a terminal and type two commands: ulimit -c unlimited and then liferea. This causes Liferea to create a core dump when it crashes. Then, run gdb liferea-bin core and type bt at the gdb prompt. This will display the backtrace of the crash, which should be sent along with the bug report.

Sail-World.com : Brisbane Boat Show reports strong sales and numerous leads
Brisbane Boat Show reports strong sales and numerous leads
'With more exhibitors and more boats than 2010, the Brisbane Boat Show was on track for a first rate edition. - Brisbane show' Marine Queensland
Times have been tough for the boating industry, particularly in Queensland thanks to Cyclone Yasi and the devastating floods that hit the state earlier this year.
Despite those damaging setbacks, the industry has shown it's made of sterner stuff and the Brisbane Boat Show which closed on Sunday after four excellent days, has attracted plenty of admiration from its more than 100 exhibitors.
More than 400 boats, personal water craft by the score, hundreds of marine engines and an imposing display of marine electronics, fishing tackle and general boating accessories helped attract more than 16,000 people to the Brisbane Exhibition and Convention Centre.
Organiser, Marine Queensland, described the exhibition as boasting 'one of the most diverse displays of product seen in recent years.'
'Given the significant economic challenges and uncertainty surrounding consumer confidence and spending patterns in the community, this year's Brisbane Boat Show has stood as proof of the passion, strength and determination of the people involved in our industry,' Don Jones, Marine Queensland CEO declared.
'Exhibitors have reported sales and strong leads across all sectors and all types of product; those representing various exhibitors admitted they had to work hard for sales, but again this is testament to the tenacity of the industry,' he added.
Show visitors were treated to a number of new model releases, among them the Sea Jay 5.9, the Cruise Craft Outsider 595, Yamaha's 242 Limited jet boat and the latest Kawasaki Ultra 300 jet skis.
Prominent exhibitor Greg Haines, managing director of The Haines Group, described it as 'a very good show.'
'Despite visitor numbers being down, boat buyers turned up and all in all it could only be termed a very successful boat show,' he added.
Greg Nickerson, one of the industry's most respected identities and managing director of Northside Marine, labelled the show as 'a great spectacle.'
'This was as good a trailer boat show as one would expect to see anywhere in Australia,' he said.
'I do feel the sales results were consistent with the local and national economy we are all living with at present, but every show needs to have a balance of short-term buyers and long-term prospects and taking the economy into consideration the show did very well indeed,' he added.
Andrew Bennett, managing director of the Queensland Marine Centre, felt the show was successful and that genuine buyers were in attendance.
'However, creating urgency in the purchasing decision did prove to be quite challenging,' he explained.
'Overall it was a very pleasing result for us; our sales included two 345 Boston Whalers, a range of smaller Whalers, Mastercraft ski boats and some small Sea Rays, so it proved to be a pleasing result in what is a tough, competitive market,' he added.
Appearance-wise, the Brisbane Show certainly looked the part and exhibitors deserve commendation for the effort put into staging their displays.
The floor plan was well done, with ample room for visitors to move through the displays and check out the product.

Other attractions within the show, such as the 'new look' Boating and Fishing Stage, the interactive sailing demonstrations presented by Queensland Yachting and the Kid's Marine Zone all scored high in the popularity stakes.
The sailing lessons proved a winner with the kids with many harnessed into sailing dinghies and taught the basics of sailing.
More than 1000 children took advantage of the fishing clinic and learnt how to catch yabbies, test their casting ability, paint plaster moulds and learn about crabs, sharks and species of fish.
Marine Queensland certainly put the necessary effort into the staging of the 2011 exhibition, with Don Jones and his staff, particularly even manager Jason Plant and marketing and communications officer Nicholle Smith deserving of mention.
The team is now concentrating on their next outing, the Sunshine Coast Marine Festival scheduled for November 19-20.

Waltham is a village and municipality in the Outaouais region, part of the Pontiac Regional County Municipality, Quebec, Canada. It is located at the mouth of the Noire River, along the north shore of the Ottawa River at Allumette Island.
The municipality consists of the hamlet of Carroll and the village of Waltham, both near the Ottawa River between Chichester and Mansfield-et-Pontefract, about west of Fort-Coulonge. Quebec Route 148 connects Waltham to Allumettes Island and Pembroke, Ontario.
Its territory, with a maximum elevation of just over , is sparsely populated, the majority of the population living along or near the Ottawa River. The northern portion is a vast extended tract of undeveloped land, dotted with lakes, such as Findlay, Landon, Gagnon, and Caughlin, which are popular for fishing.
The name Waltham, mentionned on the Gale and Duberger map of 1795, comes from a place on the River Lea in Essex, England, named Waltham Abbey. In 1849, the Waltham Township was formed. In 1859, it was officially reorganized into a township municipality, also named Waltham, and its first mayor was John T. Coghlan.
In 1869, the Bryson Township was annexed, creating the United Township Municipality of Waltham-et-Bryson. The name Bryson comes from George Bryson Sr. (1813–1900), influential logging merchant, and mayor of Mansfield-et-Pontefract. In 1888, the railroad from Fort-Coulonge to Waltham was completed but not until August 27, 1894, was the railroad opened by the Pontiac Pacific Junction Railway Company. Four years later, in 1898, a post office was established, called Waltham Station.
In 1937, a hydroelectric generating station and dam were built across the Noire River just north of Waltham village, forming a reservoir called Robinson Lake.
In 1959, rail service to Waltham is discontinued, and in 1984 the railline was removed and later turned into the Cycloparc PPJ bike path stretching from Bristol, Quebec, to Pembroke, Ontario.
In 1997, Waltham-et-Bryson is reorganized into the Municipality of Waltham.
Total private dwellings (excluding seasonal cottages): 153

The Betfair API provides an alternative interface to the Betfair Betting Exchange. It enables developers to create applications that integrate with Betfair. There are two versions of the Betfair API, one for Sports, the other for Games. These can be for:
When developing programs for your own personal use, it is most likely you'll want to use the free version of the API. This allows you to access the majority of the function calls within the API, but limits are imposed as to the number of calls you can make to most of the functions. Unless you intend developing an application that will make a lot of calls to the API, this will likely be the only version you'll need.
There is no need to sign-up to the free access API, you just need to follow the guidelines set out on the Betfair site. The only condition they apply is you need to have an active Betfair account to use the free access Betfair API.
For a Betfair account to be considered 'active', you need to make at least one transaction (settled bet, deposit, withdrawal) within the last three months.
Betfair provide no direct developer support with the free access API, but you get access to their developer forum and they also provide sample code for a number of different programming languages, such as php, java, c# and visual basic, which offer a great way to get you started.
If you are developing your own applications and have a need to make call to API functions not available within the free access API, you'll need to subscribe to the full access version (it is unlikely you'll need full access if you are just starting out developing a Betfair API application).
To access the full version, you need to pay a monthly subscription fee, but there are no restrictions on the number of call you can make to the API functions (within reasonable limits). In addition to the monthly subscription fee, there can be additional data request fees, based on usage.
If you want to build software that utilises the Betfair API and offer it to other users (either for free or payment) you need a software vendor license. There are two types of vendor license available, depending upon whether the software you develop will utilise the free access API or the full access API.
There is no subscription free to pay if you are just developing software that will access the free API, but a monthly access free is charged for the full API.
If you are distributing historical Betfair data, or tools that build a historical prices database, you will need to obtain an historical data license from Betfair.
When you access the Betfair site it not immediately obvious how you access the Betfair Developers area. At the foot of the Betfair Home Page click where it says "Developers Program". There you'll find all the information you need to get started developing applications to access the Betfair API.
If you are not a programmer or you do not have the time to develop your own Betfair API program, there are plenty of options available to you. Within the developers program, Betfair provide a directory of 3rd party software and API developers, designed to improve your productivity on Betfair.

Sony's new e-ink prototype is getting the test-drive treatment at Japanese universities, but SID provides a perfect opportunity to give the North American market a demo.
The biggest news of the day made its way out of Microsoft's Redmond headquarters a few hours ago, but there's plenty more to see just 150 miles to the north in Vancouver, British Columbia.
With each subsequent console generation there's an undercurrent of fear, a concern that this will be the cycle that finally kills off something many hold near and dear: the used game.
You've already read our hands-on with Xbox One's new Kinect and wireless gamepad, but perhaps you noticed our inability to test the gamepad's new "impulse triggers?" Well, we're glad to tell you we've just mended that exception.

As ThinkProgress first reported, CNBC's Mark Haines offered a spirited defense of the wealthy last week, saying that Wall Street companies shouldn't be managed by anyone making under $250,000 per year. Today, Haines defended exorbitant executive pay, saying that new compensation limits from the Obama administration are "scary":
HAINES: There were some scary stories in the paper over the weekend.
BURNETT: Mmm-hmm.
HAINES: About this kind of thing, regulating or somehow impacting executive pay, even among financial companies that didn't take government money. It's getting scary.
CNBC's Erin Burnett agreed, simply responding, "Yes." Watch it:

In the past, some families have let meal charges build up to fairly high levels, and more than $2,000 is owed to the district food service program.
Under the new policy, when a child's account is reduced to five meals, the student will receive a warning, said Superintendent Steve Neel during the monthly meeting of the board Wednesday. When there is only one meal left, school officials will ask the child to call his or her parents to let them know. That means the child will still get a meal that day.
However, if more money is not paid, the child will only receive an alternate meal like a sandwich the next day, and after two alternate meals school principals will take action, Neel said.
District Business Manager Cary Allen checked with the state, and was told Wiggins was not the first district to call about that kind of problem.
"Legally, we don't have to give them anything," Neel said.
This was only the first reading of the new policy, and will be voted on next month.
Board Vice President David Ritchey said he received a call from a local resident who said he was outraged that the district has ever allowed charges, saying that means taxpayers are paying for those meals.
Board member Mike Steinbach said he does not like to put the kids through that process, but there are options for families who cannot afford meals, and the situation is the parents' fault.
Agriculture program
Overall, the Wiggins High School agriculture program is good and enjoys community support, said Ag teacher Rockie Ernst.
He was giving a report on his program as part of a review of district departments. Other departments have given reviews in earlier months.
Before he started talking about the program, the ag program's parliamentary procedure team gave a rapid-fire demonstration of how the procedure works.
During the demonstration, the students showed how debate works, as well as how a point of order, adjourning, tabling a matter, amendments, reconsidering matters and other parts of the parliamentary procedure work -- sometimes adding a bit of humor.
This team will compete at the state level in June, Ernst said.
The purpose of the agriculture program is to prepare students for ag careers, but the skills they learn also prepare them for other things, he said.
He talked about one former student who is now using parliamentary procedure at the mayor of a town.
The program spends most of its time on production agriculture, but does also explore the meat industry and environmental science, Ernst said. Students also become involved with programs in the greenhouse, ag ed, placement programs and the livestock business.
Certain standards must be followed to receive state funding, and that drives the direction of the program, he said. One requirement is that the kids must be a part of FFA.
There were 30 students in the ag program this year, and 20 incoming freshmen students have indicated an interest for next year. That should maintain the numbers in the program, Ernst said.
All of this keeps him busy from about 7:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. each day, he said.
Students were also involved with 11 different events this year, such as competitions and conferences. He often drives the bus to save the district money on these events.
Given that level of activity Ernst wondered why the ag sponsor receives one of the lowest stipend levels.
The students won numerous awards this year, including 15 who earned medals at a competition in Fort Collins, and some who will be going to a national competition in October.
The quiz bowl team took second place at district level competition, two students earned state degrees and two have earned scholarships to a Washington, D.C. leadership conference, Ernst said.
FFA and a scholarship program receive significant income, and some have suggested that it should all be spent each year, he said. Between the Hired Hand Auction and fall plant sales, the programs raised about $30,000, but the programs actually spent more than that this year.
However, the funds sometimes get built up if students do not choose to attend events, Ernst said.
It is probably not a good practice to zero out the funds each year, since the program often goes through about $8,000 at the beginning of the year before fundraisers start, he said.
Ernst said he had some concerns that some major equipment has not been replaced for a number of years. For instance, there is a bench grinder that is not running right, and that is a safety concern, and there are also issues with an arc welder and a plasma cutter.
He also said he is concerned when he hears people say the district budget issues could be solved by cutting the ag program.
"I think you're doing a great job, Rockie," Steinbach said.

March 23rd: On this date...
... in 1948, your top-ranked University of Kentucky Wildcats, led by head coach Adolph Rupp, dominated Baylor, 58-42, to earn the program's first ever NCAA Championship. The team, known as The Fabulous Five, finished with a record 34 wins and only two defeats (Temple and Notre Dame). The Cats got out quick in the title game, going ahead 24-7, and taking a 13 point lead into the half. Baylor tried slowing the game down against the heavily favored Wildcats, but Kentucky's size and speed was too much for the Bears. The 6'7" Alex Groza (14 points) controlled the inside and the lightning fast Ralph Beard (12 points) handled everything outside in front of the Madison Square Garden crowd of over 16,000. One of the most celebrated teams in program history, the '48 squad went on to the Olympics and brought the gold home by dispatching of the Frenchies, 65-21, in the finals. The remaining members of The Original Fabulous Five were: Wallace "Wah Wah" Jones, Kenny Rollins, Cliff Barker.

Arkansas considers mandatory spay/neuter
(Thursday, March 14, 2013)
On Friday, March 15, 2013, the Arkansas House Committee on Agriculture, Forestry and Economic Development is scheduled to consider House Bill 2160, which would require sterilization of dogs and cats over the age of six months unless the owner qualifies for an intact animal license at a fee of $50.00 per year. This law would apply to any person who feeds or cares for a dog or cat. The owners of certain dogs and cats would be exempt. Exemptions would include breeds recognized and currently registered with the American Kennel Club, the United Kennel Club, and certain cat registries. Exemptions would also be provided, under specific circumstances, for owners of military, law enforcement and search-and-rescue dogs; service dogs; dogs used for hunting or field trial competition, and dogs unfit for surgery. Governmental animal shelters and certain humane societies would be exempt; however, rescue organizations and foster homes in residential areas would not be exempt. Even with these exemptions, the bill is problematic for responsible dog owners. Concerns with this bill include, but are not limited to:
What You Can Do: Immediately contact committee members to state your concerns with HB2160. Click on the link below, then click on each committee members name for contact information: Roster Attend the committee meeting and state your concerns. A sign-up sheet will be provided if you wish to speak before the committee. When: March 15, 2013 at 9:00 a.m. Where: Room 138, State Capitol, 500 Woodlane Street, Little Rock, AR 72001 For questions or more information, please contact AKC Government Relations at email@example.com or (919) 816-3720.

IMO, until a state institutes laws of mandatory spay/neuter for certain PEOPLE, they have zero business requiring this of animals.

I think its sad that it has to come to this to control unwanted pets. There is clauses in there to protect people with pure breds or dogs that are working...I don't see a problem with it. The problem is not the responsible people that don't spay/neuter, its the irresponsible one's and they definitely outnumber the responsible people. It really doesn't affect any one that has a pure bred GSD that is registered with the AKC, which means that most people from this area on here probably won't be affected.

If the particular state that is in question is overloaded with homeless pets and they are covering all costs until that pet has a home, then why don't the government have a say...the money to keep those pets alive is from the government, because most shelters are ran through the government.

Sounds very stupid to me. Puppy mills produce dogs that are recognized and registered by the AKC, so puppy mill dogs would become exempt. Do people actually think things through before putting in all the time for something like this????? The only way to stop overpopulation is education. No law is going to do any good without backfiring majorly for the future of all dogs.

The money that the government spends is from the taxpayers
While some may appreciate this kind of governmental interference, the unintended consequences of this may be far reaching in the future. There is no doubt a huge problem with unwanted pets, packed shelters; it is not the responsibility of the government to dictate how the problem is resolved. |

So if the animal is in a government run shelter, human society or SPCA then it doesn't have to be spayed/neutered but if a private citizen does rescue they have to. Does not make sense. Why would not ALL animals in rescue/shelters be required to be altered? Most obvious answer to me would be that the gov't doesn't want to foot the bill for the animals in its care.

the biggest problem with this bill is that AR doesn't even have a leash law. Animal Control is basically non-existent in most counties. The very idea that there would be a way to enforce this is laughable.
Then there is the fact that I am never in favor of mandatory anything... |
