AICPA Adds Grassroots Push to Retain Cash Basis Method for Tax Purposes
October 17, 2013
The American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) is working with state CPA societies, member CPA firms, and CPAs who are AICPA Key Persons to inform members of Congress about the negative consequences a proposal included in a House Ways and Means Committee tax reform discussion draft would have on CPAs and other businesses.
The AICPA continues to oppose a proposal included in the House Ways and Means Committee's small business tax reform discussion draft that would require CPA firms and others to change from the cash basis method to the accrual method for tax purposes. The provision would create a hardship for the partners of CPA firms and owners of other entities involved in the professional services sector, such as actuaries, architects, consultants, engineers, doctors and lawyers. It would force business owners operating in any form of organization other than sole proprietorships to pay tax in advance of collecting cash payment from their clients and customers if average gross receipts of the business exceed $10 million. The AICPA believes that it is unfair because it essentially treats these individuals differently than other individual taxpayers.
Fifty state CPA societies sent letters to more than 400 members of Congress. Additionally, more than 150 members of Congress received letters from CPA firms that would be directly impacted by the proposal.
As reported in The CPA Advocate on September 5, 2013, the AICPA provided comments to the Ways and Means Committee in March through written testimony. In August, the Institute sent a letter further explaining its concerns about the proposal.

Tip 1: Use Brocade Fibre Channel switching devices to connect your FICON and/or FCP I/O mainframe and storage together.
The IBM zEnterprise architecture is the highest performing, most scalable, cost-effective, energy-efficient platform in mainframe computing history. To get the most out of your investment in IBM zEnterprise, you need a storage infrastructure, i.e., DASD and tape platforms, along with a FICON switching platform which can match the impressive capabilities of zEnterprise. EMC, HDS, HP and/or IBM storage arrays paired with a Gen 5 DCX 8510 Director, together offer our customers the highest performing, most reliable, most scalable, and most cost-effective and energy-efficient products in the storage and networking industry for both FICON and FCP I/O. Efficiency and effectiveness at a lower price is the hallmark of Gen 5 motherboard-based switching platforms for FCP I/O traffic.
There are a wide range of reasons why the full value of the System z I/O subsystem is only realized when used with switched-FICON. For instance:
There are 5 key technical reasons for connecting storage control units using switched FICON:
To obtain a whitepaper about deploying switched-FICON please click the link below:
Tip 2: With switched-FICON, the availability of your I/O is dependent upon the robustness, scalability, failover capability and on-line repair capability of the fabric's switching device so you should deploy directors at the heart of your I/O fabrics:
A director-class switch on zEnterprise is designed primarily to fulfill the role of core switch in a single switch Fibre Channel (FC) fabric or in a core-edge FC I/O topology. Because they sit at the center of a fabric, director-class switches are built to be modular, more scalable, perform better and be more resilient than the fixed-port switches (motherboard-based) that sit at the edge of a fabric and connect directly to storage such as physical tape drives. That is why the majority of mainframe shops deploy director-based I/O fabrics rather than fixed switch-based I/O fabrics.
Compared with fixed switches, director switches have a larger number of ports; have built-in redundancy with non-disruptive upgrades of everything from power supplies to firmware; better scalability characteristics and provide unique, intelligent features such as inter-chassis links (ICLs).
Mainframe practitioners have a history of creating I/O infrastructures that have "five nines" availability. For FICON channel connectivity to mainframe-attached storage, these same organizations have a requirement for a FICON director platform that offers the same levels of RAS as the mainframe itself. The Brocade Gen 5 DCX 8510 is the ideal FICON director for these RAS requirements.
Because of their high bandwidth and throughput capabilities, director-class switches are also well-equipped to connect backup networks to backup storage media, such as tape libraries or disk arrays.
Tip 3: Always install the FICON Management Server (FMS) license so that you enable Control Unit Port (CUP) on FICON switching devices:
The CUP port (x"FE") provides an in-band management interface defined by IBM that defines the Channel Command Words (CCWs) that the FICON host can use for managing the switch. The protocol used is the IBM version of the ANSI FC-SB3 single-byte command code specification, which defines the protocol used for transporting CCWs to the switch, and for the switch to direct data and status back.
The CUP is an optional licensed feature.
When you install the FMS license on a FICON switching device, and enable CUP on that device, you provide yourself with a lot of valuable tools:
Click on the link below to read more about how CUP benefits a mainframe enterprise:
Tip 4: Make use of both local (ASIC) switching and backplane (central) switching to meet your business goals, objectives and SLAs:
Brocade has offered local switching (LS)for a decade on its switching products because LS provides the fastest I/O performance and reduces the amount of traffic that passes through the internal switch routing mechanism (e.g. core routing blades on Gen 5 directors). Local switching allows neighboring ports, on the same Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) to communicate without consuming valuable internal core / slot bandwidth. Since a single ASIC is doing the frame routing between two ports, LS reduces the amount of traffic that passes through the core freeing up that bandwidth to be used by other, backplane switching connected ports. Local switching results in lower I/O response time since it always runs at full line rate which in turn significantly reduces switch latency and helps to ensure that the chassis can achieve full line rate on all ports regardless of how they are connected.
Backplane switching connects ports in a different way than local switching provides. Rather than using the ASIC itself to route I/O frames between two ports that it controls, central switching is used to route frames from the ingress port on one ASIC to the egress port on a different ASIC through valuable backplane bandwidth in the core. On directors this backplane bandwidth in the core is provided through the use of core router (CR) blades.
Backplane switching still results in a low I/O response time, only about 2 microseconds per frame, but since a frame passes through more hardware when using central switching it takes a little longer than local switching does. Through the use of cut-through frame routing backplane switching still reduces switch latency which results in a very low and consistent I/O response time.
Users choose local switching or backplane switching through how they cable ingress and egress ports on a chassis. When the ingress and egress ports are both controlled by a single ASIC then local switching is always utilized, otherwise central switching will occur.

Tip 5: Make use of the Best FREE, high-value, FC Tool You Will Ever Use – SAN Health!
Brocade SAN Health is a free software utility designed to securely audit and analyze FC FICON and FCP environments.
Simply put, the Brocade SAN Health family provides you with a straightforward and effective way to stop doing whiteboard SAN management. It provides information about your FICON SAN, FCP SAN, McDATA devices, Brocade devices and Cisco devices.
SAN Health provides you with powerful tools that help you focus on optimizing your storage network rather than manually tracking its components. A wide variety of useful features make it easier for you to collect data, identify potential issues, and check your results over time. As a result, you can greatly increase your productivity while enhancing your I/O fabric(s) operations.
To provide a comprehensive report about your storage networking environment, the free SAN Health Diagnostics Capture utility utilizes a data capture application and a back-end report processing engine. After it captures switch diagnostic data, the utility automatically generates a Visio topology diagram and a detailed "snapshot" report. This report contains summary information as well as specific details about SAN fabrics, switches, and individual ports. Other useful items include alerts, historical performance graphs, and recommended best practices. Use this utility in your own environment to perform critical tasks such as:
Because it provides a point-in-time snapshot of your storage network, SAN Health Diagnostics Capture can be invaluable to your change-tracking process. For instance, you can use it to track traffic pattern changes in weekly or monthly increments. And with a built-in scheduler, you can run it after primary business hours for added safety and convenience.

Different class of Tiger
Maybe ESPN analyst Kirk Herbstreit isn't so far off the mark afterall.
After watching Thursday night's college football game unfold live and in color at Mississippi State's Davis-Wade Stadium, Herbstreit's prediction that the Auburn Tigers can win the Southeastern Conference Western Division may not be so far-fetched.
Quarterback Cam Newton and the Tigers came to town and defeated the Bulldogs 17-14 and gained an early advantage in the SEC West.
There were certain radio talk shows that had a field day bashing Herbstreit's comments about what he thought about Auburn.
Although the Tigers may not win the division, there's no reason to doubt they can stay in the hunt after watching them play.
With Newton behind the center, Auburn has a chance to do some more winning.
It's easy to see why MSU coach Dan Mullen was so interested in getting Newton to come play for the Bulldogs.
The 6-foot-6 and 215-pound signal caller from College Park, Ga., exhibits a nice throwing ability with a physical running style.
"He's a good athlete and becomes very creative when a play breaks down," Mullen said. "Our guys knew that."
Newton took Auburn down on its first offensive possession and threw a 39-yard touchdown pass to Emory Blake.
After the Bulldogs tied the game when Gabe Jackson recovered a fumble by Chris Relf in the end zone, Newton put the Tigers back on top with 8:39 remaining in the second quarter with a 12-yard scoring strike to Darvin Adams.
MSU linebacker Chris White, who led the team in tackles with 11, admitted that chasing Newton all night long wasn't pleasant.
"He's definitely a good quarterback, no doubt about it," White said. "You've got to worry about him running the ball and throwing it."
The Bulldogs had a good idea to start the second half. The best way to keep Newton from beating you is to keep the football out of his hands.
Vick Ballard scored on a 1-yard run for MSU, then they recovered an on-side kick to put the offense right back on the field. Three Relf incompletions later, the Bulldogs were punting the ball back to Auburn.
MSU kept Newton at bay for most of the second half until late in the fourth quarter when he tossed a pass to former quarterback Kodi Burns, who then threw it back to Newton for a 22-yard gain.
It was obvious that the Bulldogs made some defensive adjustments at halftime because Newton was more frustrated, but couldn't get anything going on the offensive side of the football.
Newton combined for 228 totals yards with 70 on the ground, 136 passing and the 22 receiving. As a team, MSU compiled 246 yards of total offense.
The Bulldogs have made strides during the time Mullen has been the head coach, but still have work to do in order to win these kind of games.
MSU seemed to be one or two plays away from upsetting the No. 21 team in the country.
"Every time we hit a high note, we thudded," Mullen said.
The Bulldogs may not have arrived yet, but they are in the neighborhood.

Frequently asked questions about Urifix Tablet
Frequently asked questions about Febuxostat
Q. Can I take Urifix with rosuvastatin?
Rosuvastatin can be taken with Urifix. Rosuvastatin is used to lower bad cholesterol and Urifix is used to lower uric acid levels in patients with gout. Many patients of high cholesterol levels also have high uric acid levels. There are no human studies available on this interaction. However, animal research shows that when given together, Urifix can increase the blood levels of Rosuvastatin causing a higher risk of its side effects like muscle pain and muscle damage. So, a dose adjustment of Rosuvastatin may be needed when given along with Urifix.
Q. Does Urifix cause frequent urination?
Urifix is not known to cause frequent urination. However, if you experience any such symptom while using the drug, consult your doctor.
Q. How does Urifix work for the treatment of gout?
Gout is a type of arthritis in which uric acid levels are very high in the blood and they get deposited in the joints causing swelling, redness and sudden pain in these joints. Urifix works by inhibiting the enzyme xanthine oxidase involved in the synthesis of uric acid and hence decreases the level of uric acid in the blood.
Q. Is Urifix a steroid?
No, Urifix is not a steroid. It is a xanthine oxidase inhibitor and decreases the serum uric acid levels.
Q. Is Urifix useful in lowering the triglyceride levels?
Urifix is not indicated for the treatment of hypertriglyceridemia. Conclusive evidence showing the drug lowering triglyceride levels is lacking.
Q. How long does Urifix take to work?
After oral intake, the peak plasma concentration of Urifix is achieved between 1 to 1.5 hours. However, it may take a few days to weeks to show its effect and you can experience gout attacks during this time. Continue to take your medicine during this time as with continuous use these attacks would decrease.
Q. Is Urifix an over the counter product?
Urifix is not an over the counter product. It is a prescription medicine and is available as per the doctor's advice.
Q. Is Urifix safe to use for a long time?
Studies have shown that Urifix is safe for long-term use. However, it should be taken only for the duration as per the doctor's advice.
Q. Can Urifix be used for the treatment of heart failure?
Urifix is not indicated for the treatment of heart failure. However, high uric acid levels is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and the benefit of urate-lowering therapy for cardiac diseases is being explored.
Q. Is Urifix useful for treating chronic kidney disease?
Urifix is not indicated for the treatment of chronic kidney disease. However, it can be safely used in patients with mild to moderate renal failure for lowering uric acid levels. Safety of the drug in severe renal failure is not established.
Q. Can I use Urifix for cancer?
Urifix is not used for the treatment of cancer. However, patients with malignant cancer when given anti-cancer drugs, experience a serious condition known as tumor lysis syndrome characterized by increased potassium, phosphate and uric acid levels in the blood due to the killing of cancer cells and this can lead to acute kidney injury, cardiac arrhythmia, and seizures. Urifix helps in this condition by lowering the uric acid levels and preventing further complications.
Q. Can I take Urifix with allopurinol?
Both Urifix and allopurinol are uric acid lowering agents and work in a similar way. So, using both the two medicines together may not be very beneficial and can increase the risk of side effects. However, there have been studies where Urifix when used with allopurinol in patients with refractory gout, was quite effective in providing relief. So, a combined use would be best decided by your treating doctor depending on your condition.
Q. Is Urifix useful for treating kidney stones?
Urifix is not indicated in the treatment of kidney stones. However, some studies show that high renal uric acid excretion may precipitate the formation of calcium stones in the kidney and hence, suggest Urifix may have a role in the reduction of stone formation.
Q. Can I take Urifix with colchicine?
Urifix can be taken with colchicine. In the initial few days of starting Urifix, patients may experience an increase in gout attacks because of the movement of uric acid and colchicine and painkillers are given to these patients for the relief of pain and inflammation.
Q. Can I take Urifix with azathioprine?
Urifix should not be taken with azathioprine. Taking both the medicines together will increase the levels of azathioprine and can cause toxicity.
Q. Can I take Urifix with antibiotics?
Urifix can generally be taken safely together with antibiotics. However, interactions can occur. Talk to your doctor about the right antibiotic therapy for your condition while you are also taking Urifix.
Q. What are the contraindications to the use of Urifix?
Use of Urifix is contraindicated in patients being treated with azathioprine, mercaptopurine, theophylline, and in patients who develop hypersensitivity to the drug.

Britain's Prime Minister David Cameron was thrown into a panic on Sunday (10Jun12) after he accidentally left his daughter behind in a pub.
The U.K. leader, his wife Samantha and their three children Nancy, Arthur and Florence were enjoying lunch at the Plough Inn in Buckinghamshire, England with other families before leaving to return to his country residence Chequers.
However, Cameron was left horrified after realising daughter Nancy, eight, had been left behind.
The politician's aides called the pub's management and found that the child had been found in the venue's bathroom safe and well.
A spokesperson for the prime minister tells The Sun, "The PM and Samantha were distraught when they realised Nancy wasn't with them.
"Thankfully when they phoned the pub, she was there safe and well. The PM went down straight away to get her."

A Halifax man charged after a fatal car crash in Lower Sackville this week was unable to appear in court Friday because he was still in hospital.
Brian James MacDonald, 26, was driving a 2009 Honda Civic that collided with a parked Mercedes-Benz cube van on Hillside Avenue early Tuesday morning.
Passengers Matthew Ryan, 42, of Lower Sackville and Paul Marchbank, 48, of Bedeque, P.E.I., died at the scene.
A third passenger, Neil Livingstone, 25, of Bedford, was taken to hospital with injuries that were described by RCMP as serious but non-life-threatening.
MacDonald was also hospitalized and was arraigned by phone Tuesday afternoon on two charges of dangerous driving causing death and one of dangerous driving causing bodily harm.
He was supposed to have a bail hearing Friday in Dartmouth provincial court, but legal-aid duty lawyer Jill Lacey requested an adjournment on his behalf.
Lacey told the court MacDonald was still at the Queen Elizabeth II Health Sciences Centre in Halifax, in the custody of correctional officers.
Judge Dan MacRury rescheduled the bail hearing for Tuesday.
Prosecutor James Giacomantonio said the Crown is opposed to MacDonald's release and wants to revoke his bail on a charge of sexual assault, from an incident in Bedford in March.
MacDonald, formerly of Lower Sackville, has previous criminal convictions for uttering threats, resisting arrest, assaulting a police officer and failing to attend court. He was convicted of speeding twice in 2016.
RCMP are investigating whether alcohol was a factor in the crash.

StarDate: July 22, 2013
A celestial teapot rolls across the southern sky on summer nights, venting "steam" that appears to rise high across the sky.
In mythology, Sagittarius represents a centaur — a creature that's half man and half horse — holding a bow and arrow. But modern eyes are more likely to see a teapot, which is formed by a grouping of eight moderately bright stars. The handle is on the left, with the spout on the right.
The "steam" that rises from the spout is the subtle glow of the Milky Way — the band that outlines the disk of our home galaxy. And the galaxy's heart is right above the spout.
Unfortunately, the heart is hidden behind clouds of interstellar dust, so it's not visible to the human eye. In fact, it's hard to see much detail at visible wavelengths even with big telescopes. So astronomers must look at wavelengths of light that penetrate the dust, such as infrared and radio waves.
The combination of wavelengths reveals that the galactic center is teeming with stars and giant clouds of gas. A black hole that's about four million times as massive as the Sun sits in the middle of this busy scene, surrounded by several star clusters. We'll have more about the galactic center tomorrow.
In the meantime, look for Sagittarius low in the south-southeast as darkness falls, to the right of the Moon. The Milky Way is tough to make out through the moonlight, but the Moon will rise later each night, providing darker skies for viewing our galactic home.

Eliot Fintushel writes truly bizarre stories, and "Women are Ugly" announces itself as bizarre right from the beginning, with an epigraph from Spinoza followed by a paragraph of fairly short, odd sentences about the repulsive qualities of women -- sort of like "The Lady's Dressing Room" rewritten for children by Hemingway.
It turns out that the narrator of the story is a man who is, probably, both mentally and physically handicapped, though he thinks he has super-powers and has visited various worlds and planets. Details come slowly, subtly. What holds us is Fintushel's mastery of voice -- he's as good as, if not better than, George Saunders, and this story is similar to some of Saunders's work both in tone and subject matter, though I think Fintushel is less limited in vision, and he allows his story to suggest far more possibilities than the average Saunders tale does.
In many ways, "Women are Ugly" is a story about how people talk to each other; or, rather, about how they talk but never actually get heard. One of the joys of the story is the way Fintushel contrasts the diction of the three main characters: Seymour (Seesee), the narrator; his mother; and the girl he spends some time being in love with, Clarissa. Seymour's narrative voice and his spoken dialogue are similar, both of them associative, a mix of the vernacular with overheard phrases and astronomy; Clarissa's dialogue is spare, similar to what you'll find in most stories that use conversations simply to move a scene along; Seymour's mother's dialogue is a logorrheic stream of consciousness, providing rhythmic interludes throughout the story. It is in her voice that crucial information is presented in two places to the astute reader:
You riffle and you stare. Page on page you dog-ear and jelly. I see you run your eyes back and forth, but what comes of it. You haunt the library and you jabber and you scribble, but what comes out, Seesee, what comes out. Stop worrying that bump on your head, will you. Twenty-six, gosh sakes, and you still talk to angels. Poor thing. Your eye so clear, your brow so subtle, and all that comes out of you is retard drivel. ... Look at you, maven, with your furrowed brow like a textbook with the funnies tucked inside. Oh, I could crown the joker who coined that word 'supermen.' Was it a doctor. Or a social worker. Cruel trick. A cute sweet tag for you poor things, yes, but they weren't thinking of us mothers. The drudgery. The humiliation. The pain. Thank God for Bobo anyway.After reading such passages, the various chats with Clarissa make more sense, for instance:
You can't just give up, Seesee. This isn't death we've got here, son; this is life. You can't just lie there day on day and piss yourself and weep yourself empty. For one thing, the smell. Such a thin pale thing you are with your lumpy head and your mouthful of marbles when you talk. Come back and be my tall beauty again, Seesee. I don't hate you, child, not really. Say a word to me. Talk in your tongues. Say as best you can. We piece it together, don't we. We make out your meaning through the gulps and clicks and a word here and there, through all the briar patch of it, you sad hard thing, don't we. People catch your drift, yes. Say me a word. I wish you could write two letters running, and you could write it to me. Come, what goes on in that noddle, Seesee. Before I slap you good. You know I can. Bobo's hungry.
"I bet you're passionate about things," [says Seymour.]Without the mother's perspective ("We make out your meaning through the gulps and clicks and a word here and there, through all the briar patch of it"), the dialogue in the story would seem needlessly like that of David Mamet. It may be that Seymour doesn't realize his words are difficult for people to understand, or he may. The ending may seem abrupt, but if you pull yourself out of Seymour's consciousness and objectively consider the scene Fintushel has set up, it is a devastatingly sad end to a story that, until then, has seemed to be merely an absurd romp. It is far more than that, and serves as an excellent model of how to handle both dialogue and narrative voice in a story.
"Passion. Passion."
"Passion. Passion."
"Some things."
("More Beautiful Than You" is another story where a skilled author writes a vivid and energetic monologue, though it's a more traditional story in plot and effect. Be sure also to read the interview with M. Rickert that Ideomancer published, as it is currently the only interview published with her. I'm working on rectifying that sad fact, however.)

Saint Shuts Down Foard
After mounting a quick 21-0 lead, St. Stephens was in danger of allowing Fred T. Foard back into the annual cross-county clash between the 3A rivals.
In a deep deficit, the Tigers scored two quick touchdowns and were staging a comeback going into halftime.
Then Indian quarterback Tanner Miller took over.
With 1 minute 30 seconds left in the first half, the Indians got the ball on their own 4-yard line after recovering a Foard fumble that killed a threatening Tiger drive.
Miller then rushed six times for 81 yards to lead the Indians into field goal range.
"He is an unbelievable kid and a really good athlete," said St. Stephens coach Fred Whalen. "When he was rolling out looking for passing lanes, he found plenty of running space."
St. Stephens ran kicker Cody Solesbee and holder Jeff Ellis onto the field to attempt a kick. Rather than teeing up the ball for his kicker, Ellis took the snap and passed it to Franklin Jefferies for a touchdown to cap a 96-yard, 10-play scoring drive that ended the half with a 28-13 Indians lead.
"We had been working on it during practice, and it just worked," said Ellis of his first touchdown pass.
In fact, the Indians intended to try the fake kick at the start of the game after Ellis caught a 35-yard touchdown pass from Miller to give the Indians a 7-0 lead.
"We were going to run it on the first touchdown for the PAT, but we forgot about it," Whalen said. "When we got down there (at the end of the first half) we remembered it, and we were able to run it."
The score before the half helped boost the Indians to a 42-26 win — their first in 2010.
"Anytime you can win a game, it is a good thing," Whalen said. "Foard played a hard-fought game. Both sides were basically playing a playoff game, and I am tickled to death with the way our kids played."
Despite the loss, Foard coach Ryan Gettys was also pleased by his team's perseverance.
"It was a well-fought game," he said, adding the Tigers gave up too many big plays in the Indians' passing game. "One thing I am really happy about my kids, they never give up."
After going down 7-0 at the 10:36 mark of the first quarter, Foard's offense found itself starting at its own goal line. A mishandled snap turned into a fumble, that was recovered by St. Stephens' Dyson Littlejohn for a touchdown.
"I was just thinking I need to recover it and get seven points on the board for my team, and hopefully it will lead us to victory, and it did," he said.
Littlejohn also scored on a 3-yard touchdown run in the third quarter.
Miller passed for six completions, 106 yards and two touchdowns, and added a 136 yards and another 53-yard touchdown run on the ground.
"There is not better feeling than being out here playing football with your family," he said.
Foard running back Tre Robinson led the Tigers attack with more than 215 yards rushing and three touchdowns in the loss.
"I thought our running game was really good, but it took too much time off the clock," Gettys said. "We had to stick with what was working, and our passing really wasn't there so we kept running the ball."
Foard quarterback Stefan Gettys completed just three passes on 10 attempts for 24 yards. He rushed for a 1-yard touchdown, but also threw two interceptions collected by Devin Shuford and Ellis.
The Indians (1-7, 1-2) next travel to Alexander Central. Foard (0-8, 0-3) hosts Watauga.

"Peak farmland" is here, crop area to diminish: study
Alister Doyle, Reuters
The amount of land needed to grow crops worldwide is at a peak, and a geographical area more than twice the size of France will be able to return to its natural state by 2060 as a result of rising yields and slower population growth, a group of experts said on Monday.
Their report, conflicting with United Nations studies that say more cropland will be needed in coming decades to avert hunger and price spikes as the world population rises above 7 billion, said humanity had reached what it called "Peak Farmland".
More crops for use as biofuels and increased meat consumption in emerging economies such as China and India, demanding more cropland to feed livestock, would not offset a fall from the peak driven by improved yields, it calculated.
If the report is accurate, the land freed up from crop farming would be some 10 percent of what is currently in use – equivalent to 2.5 times the size of France, Europe's biggest country bar Russia, or more than all the arable land now utilized in China.
"We believe that humanity has reached Peak Farmland, and that a large net global restoration of land to nature is ready to begin," said Jesse Ausubel, director of the Program for the Human Environment at the Rockefeller University in New York.

A Grocery Store For The People Planned For West Oakland Food Desert
Twilight Greenaway, Civil Eats
Brahm Ahmadi spends a lot of time thinking about something most people take for granted: grocery stores.
But it hasn't always been this way. As one of the founders of the nonprofit People's Grocery in West Oakland—the Bay Area's most notorious food desert—he and his colleagues started out with more affordable, less ambitious projects, like a mobile food delivery service and a local community-supported agriculture (CSA) box. But it quickly became clear—as several grocery chains tried to enter the neighborhood and failed, and residents were left relying on corner stores or taking long trips by public transportation to other neighborhoods—that the area needed a reliable, independent grocery store.
"Residents said, 'What you've brought to the neighborhood is great, but it's far from a complete solution,'" Ahmadi recalls.
So, he left People's Grocery, spent time in business school where he became an expert on community grocery stores, and then secured a possible matching loan from the California FreshWorks Fund for around a third of the funding. Ahmadi then hatched a plan to raise the remaining $1.2 million needed to start the People's Community Market through what's called a direct public offering. In other words, he's inviting California residents to invest in fresh food — literally. For a mere $1,000, anyone in the state can become a shareholder.
As focused as Ahmadi is on getting this project funded—and he is, very—he's also well aware that grocery stores are only one piece of the puzzle in a neighborhood where fresh food is hard to come by and 48 percent of residents are obese or overweight.
"Education and access are two sides of the same coin," says Ahmadi. "You can't make healthy food available and just expect people to buy it. We've never thought that would work, we've never seen that work. And it's not a very successful strategy to support people becoming more knowledgeable about their dietary choices without having a built environment that supports a change."
That's where the relationship between People's Grocery and other community organizations come into it. Ahmadi envisions nutrition counselors on-site in the store offering advice, classes, and health screening. "We consider the education and health support service element to be core to the business model, not peripheral," he says…

Blackpool to give free breakfasts to all primary school pupils
Patrick Butler, The Guardian
One of Britain's most economically deprived towns has announced ambitious long-term plans to provide free breakfast, milk and lunch to all its school pupils, amid concerns that rising numbers of its children are going hungry or failing to receive a healthy diet.
Blackpool, England's sixth most impoverished local authority, is to launch a three-month pilot scheme in January that will provide a nutritious breakfast of fruit juice, cereal and toast, together with a mid-morning drink of milk, to all its 12,000 primary school pupils.
The scheme is potentially one of the boldest attempts yet to tackle what is seen by many as a deepening crisis of food poverty in the UK, particularly among low income families.
Almost a third of children in Blackpool live in poverty, and the council said it was concerned that many more from low-income working families "on the cusp" of free school food and milk were suffering nutritionally because working parents hit by the recession were unable to afford the cost.
If the £700,000 pilot is a success, the council hopes to adopt the scheme on a permanent basis at a cost of £2.1m a year, with a long-term aim of providing universal free lunches as well as widening participation to the town's 7,500 secondary school pupils.
The leader of Labour-controlled Blackpool council, Simon Blackburn, said the scheme was the quickest and most cost-effective way to raise educational standards while tackling linked problems of poor nutrition and economic poverty. "Big problems call for bold solutions," he said.

How the Food Movement Is Gaining Strength
Ocean Robbins, Huffington Post via AlterNet
From rural farms to urban dinner plates, from grocery store shelves to state ballot boxes, ever more people are finding their voices and taking action.
This article was published in partnership with GlobalPossibilities.org.
More and more people are realizing that our food chain is in crisis. Agribusiness has made profits more important than your health — more important than the environment — and more important than your right to know how your food is produced.
The United States now spends nearly 20 percent of GDP on health care, but levels of obesity, diabetes and chronic illness are higher than ever.
Perhaps because so many people are suffering, beneath the surface, a revolution has been building.
From rural farms to urban dinner plates, from grocery store shelves to state ballot boxes, ever more people are finding their voices and taking action. If you believe in taking responsibility for your health, if you believe there is an important link between the quality of the food you eat and the quality of your life, you are part of this movement.
In the seven years after my dad and colleague, John Robbins, released the first edition of his landmark bestseller Diet for a New America in 1987, beef consumption in the United States dropped by 19 percent. The National Cattlemen's Association, not pleased, pointedly blamed Diet For A New America. Since then, beef consumption has continued to slowly drop, while organic food sales have increased over 26-fold, to now exceed four percent of market share.
This month marks the release of the 25th anniversary edition of Diet For A New America, and it couldn't come at a more opportune time. People are taking an increasing interest in the way that the animals raised for food are treated. In fact, a poll conducted by Lake Research partners found that 94 percent of Americans agree that animals raised for food on farms deserve to be free from cruelty. Nine U.S. states have now joined the entire European Union in banning gestational crates for pigs, and Australia's two largest supermarket chains now sell only cage-free eggs in their house brands.
The demand is growing for food that is organic, sustainable, fair trade, GMO-free, humane, and healthy. In cities around the world, we're seeing more and more farmer's markets (a nearly three-fold increase in the last decade), and more young people getting back into farming. Grocery stores (even big national chains) are displaying local, natural and organic foods with pride. The movements for healthy food are growing fast, and starting to become a political force.
Earlier this year, California voters put an initiative on the ballot that called would have mandated the labeling of food containing GMOs. Monsanto and their buddies in the pesticide and junk food business were forced to spend $46 million burying California's voters under an avalanche of deception in order to narrowly defeat California's Proposition 37 in the November election. Although they won the battle, more than six million California voters had come out in favor of the "right to know." It was clear that the natural foods movement was becoming a political force to be reckoned with.
Now organizers in 30 other states have begun building GMO labeling campaigns, and efforts to improve treatment of animals, to make factory farms pay for the pollution they produce, and to reform the food offered in school lunches are all gaining strength.
What You Can Do
Go to the movies. Eric Schlosser's Food, Inc., Drs. Caldwell Esslestyn and T. Colin Campbell's Forks Over Knives, and Jeffrey Smith's Genetic Roulette are some of the most popular and insightful films currently on the market.
Boycott the bad guys. Many people are choosing to boycott companies that oppose labeling of GMOs, that treat farm animals cruelly, or that profit from the sale of junk food. Other consumers are choosing to buy from the good guys. For example, the non-profit Non-GMO Project, which offers a third party certification program, has now verified 764 products, and had a record-shattering 189 new enrollment inquiries in October. You can also check out the farmer's market nearest you.
Sign petitions for GMO labeling. Want to work for policy change? A team of organizations, led by Care2 and the Food Revolution Network, have launched a petition demanding that Congress label GMOs, and it has already generated more than 65,000 signatures. And last year's JustLabelIt petition to the FDA, which generated more than 1.3 million signatures, is being revived in hopes that the FDA might eventually dig itself out of Monsanto's back pocket.
Get politically engaged. For the passionate activist, there's always more you can do, like lobbying your member of Congress, your mayor, your governor, your local media outlets, or your relatives. You can also join the Humane Society's campaign for farm animal protection, or Farm Sanctuary's work for animal welfare legislation.
Get engaged and informed. For a directory of organizations working for healthy, sustainable and humane food, as well as free access to dozens of cutting edge articles and tools to help you make a difference, you can join the Food Revolution Network. Or check out the newly released 25th anniversary edition of Diet for a New America, the book that helped to launch the modern food movement.
Big agribusiness would probably like us all to sit alone in the dark, munching on highly processed, genetically engineered, chemical-laden, pesticide-contaminated pseudo-foods. But the tide of history is turning, and regardless of how much they spend attempting to maintain their hold on our food systems, more and more people are saying No to foods that lead to illness, and YES to foods that help us heal.

(AllHipHop News) Lil Wayne has had a pretty rough 2013 so far, but he's looking to turn it around when he drops his 10th studio album I Am Not A Human Being II. The Young Money rapper took one step closer to his next release when he revealed the tracklist for the LP this weekend.
IANAHB II will feature Wayne's Cash Money labelmates Gudda Gudda, Drake and Nicki Minaj. There will also be songs with contributions from 2 Chainz, Soulja Boy, Gunplay, Juicy J, and Big Sean on the previously released "My Homies Still."
Wayne's current single "Bitches Love Me" featuring Drake and Future (which broke into the top 10 on the singles chart last week) will also be on the album.
The Young Money leader previously unveiled the cover art for I Am Not A Human Being II back in January of this year. The artwork was created by Kanye West's design company DONDA.
[ALSO READ: Kanye West's Company DONDA Designs Artwork For Lil Wayne Album]
Wayne's latest LP is the sequel to 2010's I Am Not A Human Being. The original LP is noted as being only the second album to reach number 1 on the Billboard album chart while the lead artist was incarcerated – the first being 2PAC's 1995 classic Me Against The World.
I Am Not A Human Being II will be released on March 26th by Cash Money/Young Money-Universal.

BMC Mainframe Research
5 Myths Busted!
Insights from the 2017 survey
More than 1,000 executives and technical professionals from organizations across industries and geographies participated in the annual BMC mainframe survey, the most significant study of its kind. Respondents enthusiastically told us about mainframe usage in their organizations and shared their outlook on the platform.
This year's research busts five widely-held myths about the mainframe:
- Myth 1: Organizations have fully optimized mainframe availability
- Myth 2: The mainframe is in maintenance mode; no one is modernizing it
- Myth 3: Executives are planning to replace their mainframes
- Myth 4: Younger IT professionals are pessimistic about mainframe careers
- Myth 5: People working on the mainframe today are all older
A changing landscape for mainframe growth
Among this year's respondents, 53% are under age 50 and 20% are women, with a high proportion in executive positions. Download the report to understand more about top priorities, top applications, new attitudes, and changing workforce demographics.
Hear from mainframe industry experts about the report
"Mainframe applications and databases provide critical business services as organizations undergo modernization and digital transformation. Ongoing research is important to understand the evolving state and direction of the mainframe. Such studies can provide a valuable perspective to help mainframe organizations evaluate customer attitudes and expectations."Tim Grieser, Research VP, Enterprise System Management Software, IDC

Currently known forum issues
The 3.8 series of vBulletin, used as forum software here, has reached its End of Life. It appears it's incompatible with the latest version of the PHP script language used by my web hosting service.
- So far I've noticed that the WYSIWYG editor is suffering from this since it turns up blank most of the times when you try to edit an old post.
- Also, quoting a post doesn't always include the actual quote. Seems editor related too.
Despite its EoL status, there's a version 3.8.8 beta available that I haven't tested yet but the correct move would probably be to upgrade to the 4.x series. This however would render current plugins and modifications invalid and involve more work than I can justify at the moment, considering every artist we feature here seems to have disappeared form the surface of the Earth.
This also brings up the future of the forum itself. I've recently renewed the domain for another year but with the little activity of our artists and the fact that I don't have the same energy or interest I had when I started this seven years ago, there's a possibility I will just silently let it die next year. If anyone knows of a free and permanent online storage service where every file can be easily dumped and accessed by others, please feel free to suggest them in this thread.

Helping thinkers and feelers understand one another, plus Lysa TerKeurst on handling difficult emotions, and a question about responding to a girl's rejection. Featured musical artist: Hearts of Saints
[22:09] -
How do you first take in and judge information — through your head or heart? And do you think those who do it the other way are difficult to understand? One of the keys to relational success is embracing the very different but legitimate ways our minds and temperaments work. This panel of both types gets down to the basics of what it means for all of us to be heard, understood and valued in the ways we're wired.
[26:05] -
You've had that feeling before: the feeling that the last straw has been placed on the camel's back, something's gotta give, and it probably won't be pretty. Usually this shows up in conflict with another person, and according to Lysa TerKeurst, author and president of Proverbs 31 Ministries, most people either "stuff" or "explode." In her book Unglued, she argues that our emotions should be indicators, not dictators, and in our interview, she walks through a healthy process for making that happen.
[7:29] -
A guy can do all he can do to step up and ask a girl out. But what if she says, "No, thanks"? Focus counselor Geremy Keeton offers practical advice for guys in responding outwardly and processing inwardly such a refusal, and weighs in on whether "no" means "no, forever" or "not right now."

Evolutionists are very much distressed by the fossil exhibits
Evolutionists are very much distressed by the fossil exhibits
Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9TV dated July 14th, 2012
Watch Online on HarunYahya.Tv
Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9TV dated July 14th, 2012
Watch Online on HarunYahya.Tv
ADNAN OKTAR: Let us widen the scope of the fossil exhibits. You know the saying; "strike hard so that the dajjal (antichrist) would listen." So let us continue .. Insha'Allah.
In the fossil exhibits the stones excavated from the ground created by Allah are being displayed and these men are distressed with that. They say; "We should put those aside, we should not see them." We are showing them the molecular structure of a protein and they say; "Have mercy! Do not show it!" We exhibit fossils and they say; "have mercy! Do not show them!" So what are we to do? Listen to their superstitions? That is not acceptable.
These Darwinists are looking at the exhibits in pain, they are very much distressed by them. Exhibitions overwhelm them. Now that they are overwhelmed by that, I will have them even more overwhelmed. If we were having one exhibit until now, let us have a thousand. If we were having a thousand let us make it ten thousand. And let us continue to explain this insistently.
Ms. DIDEM: Insha'Allah Master. Master, we have news about some of the exhibits our brothers have organized, if you deem appropriate.
ADNAN OKTAR: They call thes "reactionary exhibits." Well, we do know that it causes your reaction and I will make you react ever more. So these stones make them react. These are only stones, you boorish! Stones Allah had excavated from the ground. We simply place them on stands and people look at them.

Well, it turns out that there is no free wi-fi access in the exhibition hall of BookExpo America, so I wasn't able to do any liveblogging of the event, which is probably for the best, because it's so gigantic and overwhelming that it's unlikely I would say anything other than, "Wow. Lots of people. Millions of books. Wow. Lots. Huh. Wow."
I'm here with Jeremy Lassen of Nightshade Books, helping him convince passersby that trading their contact info for a free copy of a Nightshade book is a good deal. This has not been difficult, because the current crop of Nightshade books are beautifully designed and produced, making them quite attractive even in the sea of books that is BEA.
We've been up since 6.30am and attended both the LitBlog Co-Op party and the Small Beer Press etc. party tonight, so I am utterly and completely exhausted, but I did want to note here that I've met a bunch of my fellow bloggers for the first time -- Gwenda Bond, Mark Sarvas, Sarah Weinman, Ed Champion, Wendi Kaufman, Max Magee, Lizzie Skurnick, Kassia Kroszer, Carolyn Kellogg, Ron Hogan, Bud Parr, and probably at least one person I'm temporarily forgetting. I'd met Kassia, Carolyn, and Ron at the AWP conference earlier this year, and it was fun to see them again, but everybody else was new to me. These are marvelous people: intelligent, fun, friendly -- I want to marry them all. (Heck, Ed -- in his obnoxious Bat Segundo persona -- even kissed me.)
I've gotten advanced copies of some great books, but they're sitting in a bag at the other side of the hotel room right now, and so will need to wait a few days for me to write about them. Tomorrow I'm taking a digital camera with me, and so tomorrow night, if I haven't collapsed, I'll post some pictures...

In general, the association of those who do not believe in Allah and the hereafter is based on the importance they attach to worldly goods and the hope for worldly rewards. By their association, such people may conclude an agreement out of mutual interests. Each party supports the other, and thus, they hope to obtain mutual benefit. Without admitting it, those who form such alliances know that their association is not based upon mutual trust or friendship, and that their participation is conditional. When one of the parties is no longer of benefit to the other, then the alliance is terminated. The opposing party remains indifferent to the needs of the party in difficulty. Hence, such alliances only arise merely from the hope of greater strength through increased numbers and for the attainment of some worldly gain. Therefore, it is to be expected that such an alliance would disintegrate as soon as the possibility of attainting these things vanishes. As Allah informs mankind in the Qur'an, the hearts of those who deny Allah are not inclined to one another, even if they appear externally to be as one single body:
... Their hostility towards each other is intense.They are full of bravado in each other's company. You consider them united but their hearts are scattered wide. That is because they are people who do not use their intellect. (Surat al-Hashr: 14)
For this reason, such alliances formed among those who deny Allah are always prone to fall apart. In this world, there is only one thing capable of ensuring a true unity, real friendship and alliance among men, and that is "faith." When those of true faith, who fear the Day of Judgment, unite in this world, they lay the foundations of a sound alliance, which will last eternally into the hereafter. They love and befriend each other solely for Allah's sake. They unite with sincere intentions, without expecting any other benefit. This union takes its origin from love and fear of Allah, the only true source of alliance. Therefore, it is impossible for it to be destroyed unless Allah wills so. Believers form a power resembling "a well-built wall" that cannot be penetrated. The verse quoted below declares as follows:
Allah loves those who struggle in His Way in ranks like well-built walls. (Surat as-Saff: 4)
Those who have faith and who are sincere are granted the determination and enthusiasm to overcome, even if they are outnumbered by millions. This is stated in the following verse as follows:
... But those who were sure that they were going to meet Allah said, "How many a small force has triumphed over a much greater one by Allah's permission! Allah is with the steadfast." (Surat al-Baqara: 249)
They gain Allah's support by always remaining sincere. Since Allah is the "Unconquerable (Al-Aziz)," they ultimately succeed. They are aware of the secret announced in the verses of Allah as, "…You will be uppermost if you are [true] believers." (Surah Al 'Imran: 139). Consequently, they are extraordinarily resiliant and powerful, a quality to which the discord, disagreement and suspicion created by the outsiders cannot penetrate.
Each of those who form such a union fears Allah, and surrenders himself unconditionally to the verses of the Qur'an. As they strive solely to gain Allah's consent, and fear none but Allah, each is like an entire army.

The college hosts many events. I recently went there are also many sports to go watch. The sports is a major highlight of the activities.

I take online courses so I am not sure how the food is. The bookstore has a small coffee shop that is wonderful though. There are also places to eat very close to the college for those who feel like going out.

I have not stayed in the dorms but have friends who have. They seem to enjoy it and get along with their roommates.

For a small college there is a good amount of classes. The professors want the students to succeed and as long as you work with them there will be no problems.
Tips for prospective students
Get to know your advisor and discuss your future plans with him/her. The professors are there to help and no question is too dumb to ask.

Getting Your Pool Ready for Summer
March 30, 2015
It's that time of year again - time to get the pool in shape for the summer season! Below are some quick tips to help ensure that your swim season gets off to a great start.
Look around and check for signs of leaks in the plumbing, wetness around the pump motor or on the concrete pad. Also make sure you have good circulation of water in your pump basket - it should be filled with water. Then, test your water for the level of total dissolved solids (TDS), such as calcium, in the water to determine whether you need to drain and refill your pool. Arizona's water is so "hard" (laden with calcium and minerals) that the buildup can prevent your pool chemicals from doing their job. In some cases, the TDS levels are so high that a pool needs draining and refilling with clean water that will respond to the chemicals in appropriate amounts. Pools usually need to be drained every three to five years, as TDS levels get high over time. If your pool is salt-chlorinated, check salt levels and clean the cells regularly, especially if the salt system stops producing when the weather cools off (most stop automatically at about 55 degrees). Raise the chlorine level above 5.0. The shock will oxidize "dead" material that the chlorine has killed, such as bacteria, algae and skin cells.
Once you have checked your pool for leaks and have the chemicals in order, it's just as important to maintain its upkeep. If you don't have a pool service, devote time every week to a thorough cleaning of the pool, which involves netting out the debris, vacuuming, brushing the pool down, emptying the skimmer and pump baskets, and chemically treating the water. A great helper is an automatic pool cleaner. Most likely your pool pump runs all year, so maintenance on it should be ongoing. Inspect the strainer basket regularly for cracks, which can let debris pass through. It is also important to maintain the chemical balance in addition to cleaning filters every few months depending on the filter size and environmental surroundings. Finally, have the tile cleaned of the heavy calcium build up every few years. Algae sometimes grows underneath the scale and can cause problems in the pool.
The best thing to do to solve the majority of problems are:
- Keep fresh water in the pool
- Make sure filters are clean
- Make sure there is good water circulation in the pool
- Chemicals are balanced
- Run the filter for a long period of time in higher speed if you have a variable or dual speed motor.

Thank you so much for this fabulous service. I have never needed to find a place with a roommate so this was the best. I had a call in less than 12 hours after I placed my ad. I will be moving in to a perfect place with everything I ever dreamed of having in my own home. My new roommate is absolutely wonderful and we have so very much in common. This time next weekend I will be moving in to my new home. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! - Margie
I was amazed, and relieved to find this site to be so succesful. I was really in a jam when my previous arrangement fell through. I heard from a friend about the site, posted an add, and in one evening I had my pick. That's right, I got to choose whom I wanted to live with. It was like they were bidding for me, I got to choose someone that I am comfortable and compatable with. This move was almost a disaster, thankfully, Roommates.com threw me a life saver, and now I am floating with ease, right into a great home, friendship, and adventure. - Brookes
