We're going into the final week of 2015, which means that there are only four more days to close loans this year. With fears about what to expect in the coming year, including fines, unsaleable loans, and UDAAP violations, many people are having to make tough decisions as to whether to lock in now or wait until after the start of 2016. So, what's the best choice?
Fortunately, both Christmas and New Year's Day fall on a Friday this year. This makes it easier to predict market activity. At the moment, the momentum continues to be fairly flat. For the next few days, we're looking forward to the 5 year Treasury Auction, the 7 year Treasury Auction, the Case Shiller Home Prices, and Consumer Confidence reports. Any of these could have a powerful effect on mortgage rate activity, up until the markets close early on Thursday and remain closed throughout the New Year celebration. However, we're not expecting much activity from this cycle of auctions. All things considered, the current flat trend may very well continue into 2016.
Mortgage rates were already near 2015 highs going into the Christmas holiday. On the 23rd, activity in mortgage-backed-securities only made this problem worse. Though the movement in MBS was a relatively small one, and one that would usually translate to a very slight change in mortgage rates, rates moved up to their highest level in the past five months.
This unusual fluctuation can be attributed to the volatile nature of the holiday season. Lenders are considerably more conservative about adjusting their rate sheets when market activity dies down during the holidays. The previous day was a far weaker one for MBS activity, but many mortgage lenders were not adjusting their rate quotes as much as they may otherwise have. Therefore, the 23rd started off on a much weaker foot than rate sheets indicated.
If you are trying to decide whether to float or lock, it would seem that the odds are in your favor. Should MBS prices linger where they are, mortgage rates could experience a significant improvement as we head into 2016.
Back in the period between 2005 and 2008, instances of mortgage fraud were at a peak. Fortunately, increases in regulation and lending standards led to a strong reversal of this trend, and we have seen very little in the way of fraud in the past few years. However, according to Bret Fortenberry of CoreLogic's Insights blog, there is reason to believe that mortgage fraud is once again on the rise.
CoreLogic has been tracking mortgage fraud risk since 2010. Risk has moved up and down significantly, dipping into a deep valley early this year, but the overall trend still seems to be moving gradually upward. Low interest rates and rising home prices, which give unscrupulous individuals an opportunity to misrepresent down payments, can be attributed to much of this risk. Moving forward, the group expects these trends to continue, placing us at the bottom of a peak that should reach its highest level at some point in the second quarter. According to projections, this could be the highest level of fraud risk since CoreLogic first started tracking.
Last week ended with the release of the jobs report, which represents the most influential piece of economic data in the world. Though many were expecting a lackluster report, and hoping that it would inspire the Fed to postpone the rate hike they scheduled for December, the report exceeded expectations across the board. Employers added more jobs than they have in any month since December of 2014, with a total of 271,000. The unemployment rate dipped down to 5%. Meanwhile, hourly earnings went up by 0.4.
The main takeaway is that the Fed is now almost certain to raise rates next month. With this revelation, mortgage rates jumped significantly higher today. Most lenders are offering their highest rates since July. This may result in some of the pressure being released, and it is not impossible that we may see this trend reverse throughout the coming days. However, floating remains a risky prospect, outweighing the potential rewards for most people looking to secure a loan in the near future.

Before the cosmetic dentistry procedure
I can't imagine how you look like before you enter in the dental clinic. You must be devastated and not happy at all. That is the reason why you come to that clinic, right? I have the same feeling before the cosmetic dentistry procedure. I still remember my first visit to the dentist. I came to clean and bleach my teeth. My teeth were yellow, with plaque and cavities inside and in my gums. I thought that there were decayed and bad teeth. I felt not good at all. I also remember when I went to have dental filling. My tooth was not in a good shape at all. I had decayed tooth and hurt me when I eat something. I also had bad breath because of bacteria that living in my mouth. I was sad because I don't want to say goodbye with one of my teeth. I really want to save it as long as I can. That's what I told to my dentist and I'm so glad that I did.
After the cosmetic dentistry procedure
This is my favorite time when having a cosmetic dentistry. What a wonderful feeling to have a successful cosmetic dentistry! What do you expect after teeth cleaning? Wow! I am so happy with the result. My teeth are whiter than before. The yellowish color turns to my original teeth color. The plague and cavities are gone. My teeth are ok and not worried that they were bad. I can see the results. My teeth are shining like the stars. Did you see and feel the same as I did? I was amazed and happy with the result after my tooth filling. I can see nothing but a whole tooth. There's no hole because it filled with materials used in filling. I saw the same color with my tooth. I really thanked my cosmetic dentist to save my tooth. I don't have bad breath anymore. They were my experiences and I know that some of you felt the same way or more than that. I did not have dental implant, veneers, crowns and bridges. I wonder how they feel and what their reaction after cosmetic dentistry procedure. Cosmetic dentists are really amazing and surprising. Thanks to high technology that learned by our talented cosmetic dentists. Everything is possible more than you imagine. What did you see after cosmetic dentistry procedure? You can share with us too.

Henna Kit Series: Get Started Practicing
How to Get Started Practicing Henna
In this episode of the Henna Kit series, I'll be sharing some tips with you on how to get started practicing henna.

In the video at the end of this post, I take you through Continue reading "Henna Kit Series: Get Started Practicing"
Henna Kit Series: Filling the Henna Cones
How to fill the henna cones
In this episode of the Henna Kit series, I will tell you how to check your paste for dye release and then how to fill your henna cones with the paste. Quite an informative video at the bottom of this entry, I recommend watching that to see exactly how I do it! But here is a quick rundown.
1. Check the paste for dye release
So your paste has been sitting for 4-6 hours. To determine whether it's ready, you'll need to test for dye release. The Henna Kit Instructions tell you to do this as follows:
Test to see if dye release has happened by putting a small bit of henna on your palm. Leave it on for 5 minutes and then wipe off. If your skin is orange, then the paste is ready! If not, then let the paste sit for another hour and check again.
2. Thin the paste to the perfect consistency
Thin the paste with small amounts of water to your desired consistency. Your paste should be silky smooth and able to fall from your spoon when tipped.
Consistency is an important part of mixing your paste. Henna artists can prefer different consistencies depending on what they like. Henna that is too wet can melt on your skin and look messy, henna that is too dry can make it hard for you to make smooth lines, as well as causing fatigue in your thumb from having to push so hard on the cone to get the paste out.
Take a look at the video at the end of this blog to see what consistency I prefer.
3. Fill the carrot bag with the paste
Put the carrot bag inside a sturdy cup, opening it up around the cup's edge.
Put the henna paste into the lined cup.
Remove the carrot bag filled with henna paste from the cup and clip the pointed end with scissors so the opening is about as big as a pencil.
Once again, the video at the end will help show you how this is done. Putting the paste into the carrot bag is necessary if you want to fill the henna cones without a huge mess!
4. Fill the cones using the carrot bag
Insert the carrot bag into each henna cone and squeeze until the cone is filled 2/3 of the way. Don't overfill!
To close the cone, fold one side of the top in and then the other, then fold the top down. Secure with tape.
I fill all of the cones first before taping each one. After you fill one of the cones, lay it on the table and move on to the next cone. Then tape all of them at the same time.

Remember when life was simple and the only social media sites that mattered were the "Big 3"-Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn.
Seems like last year.
Oh wait, it was last year.
Tumblr, WordPress (yippee!), Myspace, Pinterest, Instagram, Google Plus, FourSquare, MeetUp, YouTube….the list never ends.
So where do you start to market yourself or your business?
Social media marketing is all about reaching the right audience and using the right platform. Is your audience teenage girls who love to post pictures of themselves all over the Internet? Do your customers avoid the Internet like the plague? Is your youngest customer eligible for Social Security? There are questions you need to ask yourself before investing time, energy, and resources into creating and maintaining a social media platform.
Without further ado, social media explained:

The gazebo is my place to watch the game.
My Scandia Chair from JustLeanBack is perfect for my gazebo. I can watch the game comfortably (it leans back with me) and if I fall asleep after its over - hey - I'm "in bed" already. Couldn't be easier. The cherry wood looks great and my wife approved of the chocolate brown Sunbrella fabric. Thanks Nikita for a good-looking chair that has become my favorite.

After my failed Youtube ventures I have decided to start afresh with a new name and this time I'm going to be blogging. I've never tried WordPress before so we'll see how this goes.
I hope you'll join me on this journey. I can't promise you much in terms of incentives; I'm not even sure what I'm going to be blogging about yet. I'm currently working on some investigative pieces so those may also make it onto here. Science, politics, philosophy and social commentary are likely to rear their controversial heads now and again but as of now, I haven't decided what my main topic will be.
My aims for the year ahead are to grow as a blogger and a person, make as few enemies as possible and meet and interact with new people both online and IRL. I'll make mistakes along the way. I'll get stuff wrong, I'll say the wrong things and I'll offend the wrong people. When I do I hope that you'll be forgiving.
I'll leave you with a picture of a cat for now. See you soon.

The National Election Authority (ANE) said turnout at the presidential and parliamentary elections reached a high 79 percent.

About Patriot Time
PATRIOT TIME: On Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays (during the time period of Teacher Advisory on Monday) we hold Patriot Time. There are six possible places where students go during this time (constantly changing):
- CONCEPT MASTERY (assigned): Teachers give short formative assessments following instruction to identify students who are not gaining mastery. These students are immediately assigned to Concept Mastery (CM) class where they are re-taught the missed concept before they get too far behind. This class is focused on helping the assigned students gain mastery in a specific concept (It is not a "catch up on homework" time). Providing CM is the primary purpose of Patriot Time.
- TUTORIALS (assigned or optional where students choose to come): This is for students who understand the concepts but, for one reason or another, are behind on getting their work done. A Tutorial session could be a review for an upcoming test, a time with a teacher to catch up after illness or vacation, a chance to get extra one-one-one help, or a time for a group of students to work together on a group assignment under the supervision of the teacher, etc. These sessions can be mandatory where their planner is stamped, or optional where the students just show up at the Tutorial.
- TESTING CENTER: We acknowledge that students learn at different rates and should be offered multiple opportunities to show mastery. Therefore, we are moving to a Standards-Based Grading system, where students' grades are a true reflection of their mastery of skills. Once students have done the required extra work to learn, and they have mastered the concepts, they need to be re-tested. This testing can take place during Patriot Time in the testing center.
- STRETCH Learning activities. These are enrichment activities that support deeper learning. Often they are activities teachers could not fit in during the regular class time. Sometimes Stretch Learning activities target gifted students. For example, a science teacher did a starfish-dissecting lab Sometimes they are "just for fun" activities that expose students to new ideas and skills. Stretch Learning can provide opportunities for teachers to sneak in some extra practice or instruction. For example, an English teacher did an Origami Stretch Learning session. The students didn't recognize it, but she was helping them improve their ability to read and follow directions (functional text). Several times a year we show an educational movie in the auditorium for those interested – for example, near Martin Luther King Day, we showed a video about Dr. King's contributions.
- CAREER EXPLORATION: Guest presenters share information about his/her career with the students – the hiring outlook, the salary, the education required, etc. We use a template with information created out of the Utah Futures program to visually supplement the information the presenter brings. Students can choose to attend these presentations if they are not assigned to a Concept Mastery or a Tutorial class.
- STUDY HALL: Many of our students are on the honor roll students and are doing well in school but are extremely busy with extra-curricular activities. If they do not need or have interest in one of the other Patriot Time activities, they can use this half-hour of time to start their homework, study or read. This frees up time after school for other worthwhile activities. We have found that when students get started on homework at school, they are more likely to complete it at home that night and turn it in. Study Hall is held in the library.

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) was in Chicago yesterday to give a speech at the Union League Club on his economic policies, but protesters had something else in mind for the collective bargaining busting governor.
Just as Walker approached the microphone to give his speech, protesters from Stand Up Chicago, Occupy Chicago, and labor unions disguised as guests at the breakfast event began using the human microphone system to read a message to Walker, following it up with chants of "Union busting is disgusting!"
Walker was invited to the Union League Club of Chicago to discuss his union-busting budget policies, as evidenced by the invitation to the event which read:
Faced with mounting deficits and busted budgets, the freshman Governor took on powerful political interests – and won. In this talk, Governor Walker will review the challenges confronting Wisconsin (hint: they will sound familiar to Illinois residents), and what he proposes to overcome them. New realities are overtaking established institutions -- meet one of the young governors who is shaping the future of states in our federal system.
But labor leaders and the rest of the 99% were not amused by the mocking invitation to the speech, which was called "Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker: Taxpayers, State Budget Reforms and the New Realities". As about 30 people rallyed outside of the breakfast, about 70 of the breakfast's attendees were in fact protesters who took over the event momentarily to voice their displeasure with Walker's policies.
"It is an outrage and a shame that we sit at this fancy breakfast to listen to someone who has wreaked havoc on the lives of working families," explained a statement by Stand Up Chicago. "Gov. Walker has vilified unions and insulted the 99% who depend on living wages and adequate benefits to support their families, while on the payroll of the right wing billionaire Koch brothers."
Here's a look at the scene as protesters temporarily silenced Walker at yesterday's breakfast event:
After the protesters left, Walker received a rousing round of applause by the remaining breakfast attendees and bragged that his reforms are working. Meanwhile, Democrats and labor leaders are planning a recall effort against the freshman Republican governor.
Truly courageous, truly amazing and truly inspiring. I loved every second of that video. Thank you all so much!

The Bahrain-based designer duo, Shaikha Noor Al Khalifa and Shaikha Haya Al Khalifa, combined their seasoned clean lines and feminine aesthetic with a technology-reminiscent, modernistic edge. Boxy metallic jackets, leather trapeze coats and lamé skirts dominated the runway, juxtaposed by subtle floral patterns and structural embellishments. The designers' mix of hard and soft was furthered through their pairing of hand-sewn ornamented evening gowns with heavy oxford shoes – creating, fingers crossed, the cool-girl combo for every red carpet to come. Laser cut patterns, vinyl-esque materials, billowy shorts and monochromatic mesh also added an element of sportswear to the diverse standout collection.

California Continues Hazardous Waste Enforcement Campaign Against Retailers With Two New Multi-Million Dollar Settlements
The first quarter of 2015 brought two significant settlements against retailers for alleged violations of California's hazardous waste laws. The settlements are the latest in a string of similar California enforcement actions that have seen total penalties of over $150 million levied against retailers in the last five years involving waste products. Through settlement orders, California prosecutors continue to impose increasingly onerous obligations for employee training, hazardous waste determinations, mandatory third party auditing, and other oversight of hazardous waste compliance programs that go above and beyond the regulatory requirements. This puts a premium on retailers to develop and maintain a robust hazardous waste compliance program that can withstand enforcement scrutiny. Read More ›
Recycling Company Fined $4.5 Million for Illegal Export of Electronic Waste; Executives Receive Prison Sentences
Executive Recycling, Inc., a U.S. electronic waste recycling business, and two company executives were sentenced this month by U.S. District Court Judge William J. Martinez for defrauding customers and illegally shipping electronic waste ("e-waste") overseas. The corporation was fined $4.5 million and sentenced to 3 years on probation. CEO and owner Brandon Richter was ordered to serve 30 months in federal prison, followed by 3 years on supervised release. Judge Martinez also ordered Richter to pay approximately $77,000 in fines and restitution and to forfeit over $140,000 in assets. Richter and Executive Recycling received their sentences one week after the corporation's Vice President of Operations, Tor Olson, was sentenced to 14 months in prison and fined $20,000. Read More ›
Indiana Court Presumes Lack of Defect Due to Manufacturer's Compliance with Federal Pesticide Law
Compliance with federal pesticide law and state labeling requirements entitles a pesticide registrant to a presumption that the product is not defective under Indiana law, according to the Indiana Court of Appeals. See Gresser v. Dow Chemical Co., No. 79A02-1111-CT-1014 (Ind. Ct. App. Apr. 30, 2013), available at www.bdlaw.com/assets/attachments/Gresser.pdf. Read More ›
Ninth Circuit Further Limits Climate-Nuisance Suits
Further limiting available grounds for plaintiffs to seek redress for injuries allegedly due to climate change, on September 21st, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the dismissal of an action brought by the Native Village of Kivalina and the City of Kivalina (collectively "Kivalina") against multiple oil, energy and utility companies (the "Energy Companies"). Native Vill. of Kivalina v. ExxonMobil Corp. (Kivalina II), No. 09-17490 (9th Cir. Sept. 21, 2012). Consistent with the Supreme Court's decision in American Electric Power Co., Inc. v. Connecticut ("AEP"), 131 S.Ct. 2527 (2011), the panel found that the plaintiffs' federal common law nuisance claims were displaced by the Clean Air Act. Id. at 13-16. The decision was perhaps most notable for concluding that federal common law claims seeking damages for alleged climate-related injuries – in addition to claims seeking injunctive relief, as the Supreme Court held in AEP – are displaced by federal statutory law.

California Green Chemistry: Public Comment Period for DTSC's Proposed Safer Consumer Products Regulations Extended Until October 11, 2012
On July 27, 2012, the California Department of Toxic Substances ("DTSC") released its proposed Safe Consumer Product Regulations ("Proposed Rule") for notice and comment. (Click here for full text of Proposed Rule.) The Proposed Rule represents the culmination of a multi-year effort to develop regulations to implement California's 2008 Green Chemistry legislation. The Proposed Rule includes changes from previous pre-proposal drafts which are intended to address public concerns regarding protections for confidential business information, clarity of prioritization of chemicals of concern, the perceived unworkability of timelines for preparation of alternatives analyses, and concerns about the de minimis threshold level. With the issuance of the Proposed Rule, DTSC opened a 45-day notice and comment period. Read More ›
California Appellate Court Rejects Tort Claims Against Component Part Suppliers
In a decision that may help solidify toxic tort defenses for suppliers and manufacturers of intermediate goods, a California Appeals Court ruled that a metal worker could not hold component part suppliers liable for negligence or strict liability as a result of injuries allegedly sustained by his use of or exposure to their metal products. Maxton v. Western States Metals, et al., Slip Op. B227000 (Cal. Ct. App. Feb. 1, 2012), available at www.bdlaw.com/assets/attachments/Maxton.pdf. In dismissing plaintiff's claims, the court found that no "extraordinary circumstances" existed—such as the presence of contaminated or inherently dangerous raw materials—and therefore the defendant suppliers could not be held liable.

Louisiana Appellate Court Finds Plaintiffs Need Not Own Property at Issue to Recover Damages
In a decision that may expand the duty owed by manufacturers and sellers in products liability actions, a Louisiana state appeals court held that buyers and processors of crawfish do not have to show ownership of the damaged property – in this case, crawfish – to maintain a viable products liability claim for economic loss. Phillips v. G&H Seed Co., No. 10-1405 (La. Ct. App. Mar. 7, 2012), available at www.bdlaw.com/assets/attachments/Craw.pdf. The Louisiana Court of Appeal, Third Circuit, sitting en banc at the direction of the State Supreme Court, reversed a trial court's summary judgment ruling that had dismissed the claims of crawfish buyers and processors because they could not establish a proprietary interest in the crawfish. Phillips, slip op. at 1-2. Read More ›

Last weekend I got the opportunity to visit San Antonio, Texas with my fiancé for a day before traveling onto Corpus Christi, Texas. After boarding the plane from Washington State, my fiancé posed the question to me if I would like to spend some time in San Antonio to explore the romantic city. Of course I said yes, so we went onto hotwire.com and use the hotel finder feature to book a random 4-star hotel in downtown San Antonio. This method is a fun way to book and discover hotels, if you have an open mind. A little less than $100 later, were pleased to get the Sheraton Gunter Hotel - only 2 blocks away from the River Walk!
As soon as we were checked in, we walked outside and pointed ourselves in the direction of what appeared to be the most festive part of downtown. A few minutes later we happened to stumble upon the River Walk which ended up being only two blocks from our hotel. It was 80 degrees and sunny outside so it was a perfect day to walk up and down the beautiful river and experience the vibrant culture that the area had to offer.
After walking around for a bit and taking in the scenery, we both found our stomachs grumbling at the delicious aromas fuming the area. After a considerable debate, we decided to eat dinner at a delicious Italian restaurant called Paesanos, right on the river. I had the spaghetti with a butter-lemon sauce, while my hubby-to-be enjoyed sausage and cheese stuffed shells. It was a delectable meal paired with a beautiful view! I highly recommend it to anyone who visits San Antonio. We were also recommended to eat at Casa Rio, the oldest Mexican restaurant on the river. We didn't get the chance to eat there but when we visit again it will definitely be on our to-do list!
After dinner, we decided to take a tour boat ride down the river. It was $8.25 but 100% worth every penny. We went at dusk, which I would definitely recommend. It was a memorable experience to see all of the Christmas lights decorating every tree and building come to life and illuminate the night. Our tour guide was a lot of fun and very knowledgeable about the city. You could tell that he really loved his job, which made the tour that much better. This boat ride was the best way to see the entire riverwalk in just an hour. If you have a short period of time, like we did, hop on one of these boats!
After a long day, we accidentally stumbled upon the Alamo on the way back to our hotel. It was late so we did not do the tour through it, but we did take a few pictures and admire the beauty of the mission. This building's design echoes throughout the architecture of San Antonio, but if there is one word to describe what the foundation of the city is built upon, it's diversity. Everywhere you walk, you not only witness the Spanish influence, but the American and even German influence as well.
We were very lucky to have had a beautiful 80 degree day to tour San Antonio! Unfortunately the next day cooled down and was stormy but we were driving back to Corpus Christi anyways; so we grabbed Starbucks and went on our way! For only having a day to explore the city, I think we did a pretty good job of getting an impression of what San Antonio has to offer.
Thank you for reading my blog, if you have any questions feel free to ask!

Here are 2 vintage fishing reels: a Thunderbird 50 and a Bronson Fleetwing in the original box with instructions for use and care. I don't think the former owner ever read it... it was obviously put away wet and has suffered some corrosion as a result which has also stained the box and instructions. Don't know if this could still be useful, but it might be interesting to have the box and folder with information and list of patents, the last one being for 1945. The Thunderbird is in better condition but it also has some corrosion and green oxidation on the unplated metal parts. Some wear to black finish on edges. All fishing reels that we have listed today (except the Ryobi) came from the same estate.

Space weapons agreements, treaties, and politics
by Taylor Dinerman
|DeSutter pointed out that the US used to believe, as a matter of doctrine, that no nation would ever sign an arms control agreement with the intention of violating it. We now know better.
A taste of what the debate would look like was seen at the National Press Club in Washington DC last week. The Marshall Institute sponsored a talk by Paula DeSutter, Assistant Secretary of State for Verification, Compliance, and Implementation, on "Is An Outer Space Arms Control Treaty Verifiable?" It is important to understand that her remarks were vetted by the full bureaucracy at the State Department, including both career Foreign Service officers and Bush Administration political appointees. These were not "off the cuff" pronouncements, but were a carefully thought out statement of US policy thinking about this problem.
She pointed out that any analysis of an arms control agreements must examine whether it is technically verifiable and then whether it is effectively verifiable. Most proposed space arms control agreements, notably the ones recently put forward by China and Russia, are not even close to being technically verifiable. Moreover, they seem to know this. Their goal is to set out their terms and then sit back and watch while the Americans tie themselves up in legalistic knots over definitions and doctrinal and/or philosophical questions.
More important to any future agreement is whether it could be effectively verified, and here the answer, from both the Bush Administration and most of the professionals at the State Department, is no. Any maneuvering space vehicle can be used as a co-orbital anti-satellite weapon (ASAT). Any space launch vehicle, IRBM, or ICBM can be used as part of a direct ascent space weapons technology that is proliferating quickly. Within a few short years both Iran and North Korea could have a rudimentary capability; others could follow.
DeSutter pointed out that the US used to believe, as a matter of doctrine, that no nation would ever sign an arms control agreement with the intention of violating it. We now know better. As long as US military power depends on a massive, complex, and expensive set of defenseless space assets, the incentive for any potential foe to develop ways of attacking them is too great to be over come by any international agreement. If, however, the US can be constrained from developing and deploying effective countermeasures thanks to such an agreement, they have every reason to pressure Washington limiting its own actions.
Being a diplomat DeSutter, of course, had to speak diplomatically. She said that "there is no—I repeat, no—on-going arms race in space." This is like watching the horses warm up for the Kentucky Derby and then saying "there is no on-going horse race here": true enough, but hardly relevant. There was no space race before the USSR launched Sputnik in October 1957, but there were lots of ongoing space programs.
Part of the problem is due to the lack of transparency and good faith that surrounds this issue. When the US complains about others who seem to be hiding their space weapons efforts from international scrutiny a lot of people, some of them Americans, question whether the "black budget" is hiding US space weapons projects. This objection should be dismissed out of hand, since the secret budget has to be approved by bipartisan congressional committees and a politically controversial program such as that would never be allowed to get through the process. In any case, leaks are a way of life in Washington and there have been no reliable leaks about this in Aviation Week or elsewhere.
|Without clear and specific orders from both the executive branch and from Congress, the Defense Department is not going to proceed with any sort of space weapons program no matter how much some members of the military may feel the need.
The best the US can do is to conduct some preliminary technology work that has other applications, and this must be done through the open budgeting process. The fact that after the recent NRO satellite intercept the US Navy immediately de-scoped the spare SM-3 missiles that had been modified for the purpose shows just how sensitive an issue this is within the military. Without clear and specific orders from both the executive branch and from Congress, the Defense Department is not going to proceed with any sort of space weapons program no matter how much some members of the military may feel the need.
Today the issue is essentially stalemated. No real progress on either side has been made on either side since Clinton's first Secretary of Defense, Les Aspin, killed the Brilliant Pebbles program in 1993. If a President McCain were to try and revive that program he would face a monumental political fight, but it would be one where his supporters would claim that he was actively trying to protect America and its friends. Any attempt to break the stalemate in favor of an arms control agreement would face an equally massive reaction from the other side of the political spectrum claiming that President Obama or President Clinton was, at best, forcing America to rely on the kindness of strangers.

British actor Benedict Cumberbatch is giving fans another chance to see him in a highly-anticipated London play by handing out $16 tickets in a ballot after the 12-week run sold out in just seven hours.
The Imitation Game star is set to play the title role in a new production of William Shakespeare's tragedy Hamlet at the Barbican Center later this year (15), and the coveted tickets were snapped up in record time when they went on sale.
However, disappointed fans have now been given another chance as theater bosses have launched an affordable ticket scheme, giving away 100 seats for every show for just $16 . Theater-lovers can enter an online ballot to win the seats, and successful entrants will be notified by 19 June (15).
The production is due to open on 5 August (15) and run until 31 October (15). It will also be screened live in cinemas across the U.K. on 15 October (15).

Apple's most anticipated announcement in years has had some people jumping in joy with excitement, and others saying ho-hum. In fact, a recent survey of 1,000 consumers showed that while buyers were pumped before the announcement of the iPad was made, their excitement fizzled after learning the product details.
The survey, conducted by Retrevo, an online marketplace for consumer electronics, may indicate that not only did Apple fail to convince new buyers, it may have lost many potential ones in the lack-luster announcement.
In a blog post, the company explained that their polls showed that the number of respondents saying they had heard about the tablet rose from 37% shortly before the announcement to over 80% after the media frenzy on January 27th.
However, the study showed, the number of respondents saying they had heard about the tablet but were not interested in buying one doubled from 25% before the announcement to over 50% following the announcement.
Additionally, the company asked consumers before the announcement if they thought they needed the tablet. The results weren't impressive, as 49% of respondents answered "no," with 30% saying they needed to know more about it before they could decide.
After the announcement was made, the percentage of respondents who indicated a need for more information had dropped by half. However, the overwhelming majority of those who felt they had sufficient knowledge decided they didn't need an iPad — raising the total number of respondents saying "no" to the iPad, after the announcement, to 61%.
The kicker for Apple is that most respondents also said that having 3G wasn't a deal breaker, with more than half saying they wouldn't pay extra for it.

Naseeba Khader: Tulips, Ghararas and Wonder Woman
As soon as I entered Naseeba's house I knew I had stepped into an artist's lair. The tastefully decorated abode was a sight to behold. Various artistic creations adorned the walls. Our host welcomed us with a beautifully gracious smile. I had heard about Naseeba's talents and had gone through her Instagram page, but the real-time opportunity of getting to know her as a person was a different experience altogether.
I flipped through the pages of her sketchbooks and saw one masterpiece after another. An old building in Port credit, Meena Kumari the legendary Bollywood personality, a pair of shoes next to a doormat. And even Wonder woman sporting a Hyderabadi outfit complete with an image of the Charminar in the background were some of the amazingly diverse sketches and paintings which greeted my eyes. So, I popped the first question.
The Link: Is there a conflict between Naseeba the artist and Naseeba the person
Naseeba: I don't think so because I only draw what I want to draw. I might try to get inspiration from everyday objects if my heart fancies. I think my art is a part of me and I don't separate the two. I do not like to make overly political statements either because I think opinions are a personal matter. Even though nowadays people like to use their art to propagate their agenda, I try not to do that. I understand there is a lot of negativity out there but I prefer to keep my creations positive. One of my cousins told me that when she sees my work, it makes her happy. I think this is one of the best compliments I had ever received. I want to add to the positive vibes around us. Sometimes I look at my Facebook feed and I get taken aback by what I read. I try never to read the public comments but sometimes something catches my eye and I do. And again, I am shocked by some of the things out there. It surprises me to see what kind of opinions people have and then they express them without any hesitation on public forums. Recently with the Quebec Mosque tragedy. I was worried about how people would react.
Thank God, most Canadians and others from all over the world were very supportive. But then there were a few who made really nasty comments. Those kind of things I know exist and I am not naïve or oblivious to all that but I want to stay away from negativity and choose to focus on the positive. Some people might think my work is shallow and frothy but I want to make people smile and bring happiness in their lives. That gives me pleasure.
The Link: Your family belongs to Hyderabad, India which was once the epicentre of culture, arts, and royalty at one time in history and still is. How much of Hyderabad is there in your work?
Naseeba: It is funny that you asked that. I was born in Brampton but my family moved to Scarborough. And when I was in grade six we moved to Markham so I grew up there. I was the only desi (of South – Asian descent) girl in the class. I was sometimes made fun of because of my skin colour. I did not want to be brown or Indian. I was afraid of my culture. I would never wear shalwar qameez when I went out. I was already a shy person and when I was made fun of because of something I could not change I distanced myself further from who I was. Then I switched schools in grade 8th and that was a game changer for me.
I was part of a multi cultural environment and my new friends were Indians, Pakistanis, Chinese and from other diverse backgrounds. Some of them are still very close to me. Slowly I became more comfortable with my Indian identity. I also visited India in 1990. I was able to meet my cousins and the rest of my family. I started watching more Bollywood movies and started identifying with that part of my heritage. Though I love all that but I also have a very tongue in cheek humour so I am very much aware of the quirky side of the desi culture.
The Link: Your work has a bit of Mughal miniature touch to it. The style, the black outlining, even the diminutive size. Is it intentional?
Naseeba: I never really noticed that. But if that is so it is a compliment for me. Ever since I was a child I loved to draw. I love colours but my favourite part still is the actual drawing. What I really enjoy is the free style sketching. So maybe that is why it reminded you of the miniature genre. Also I feel as I am getting older I find myself appreciating my culture more than I used to. There is so much creativity when I look at the South Asian sub continent. So much artistic talent. The craftspeople who create the beautiful clothes we wear, the every day tailors, the darzis, who do not have any formal training sometimes produce such masterpieces. But they never get the credit or are not paid enough. These skills run through generations, passed on from father to son and so on but this amazing work does not get recognition. You know I grew up here in Canada so I realized a bit later in life the immense wealth of the history and culture of where my family is originally from.
I must also add that being Canadian is also a big part of who I am. First of all, I see myself as a Muslim, that is why I love Islamic art and architecture. But you can see Canada in my work too, like these architectural illustrations. I love reading mystery books. In fact, I love reading in general so sometimes I get inspiration from that. I love clothes, I love fashion. I get inspired from all these facets of my personality.
The Link: I saw your Instagram posts the day after the Oscars and I found illustrations of what some stars wore on the red carpet and you just mentioned that you are interested in fashion. But do you think that can be classified as art?
Naseeba: Yes, I would call it art. I love colour and symmetry. Even though when I dress up myself I do not overdo it, I like to keep it simple. But I follow a lot of fashion illustrators on Instagram and they sometimes do amazing things. For example you mentioned the Oscars. Some artists illustrated some of the dresses the stars wore. I like to draw clothes because I like beauty and balance. I don't want to draw something which would make anyone depressed or anything like that.
The Link: Let us talk about the collage you put together with a drawing and parts of a tulip flower.
Naseeba: I love flowers because they remind me of all the beauty God has created. I had bought tulips and as they started wilting I wanted to preserve them in some way. So I decided to draw something and then use parts of these flowers. I drew an image of a woman wearing a traditional gharara. I used the petals for the gharara and the stem and part of the leaves for the dupatta. And then my Mom had given me these shiny bits, I used them too. I gave this creation an ethnic twist because I wanted to represent my culture. This is the story behind this collage.
I have also done some formal training in calligraphy and it fascinates me immensely. I found out it is not as easy as it looks and that it requires a lot of patience and dedication. I would love to continue that too but mostly I just like to sit down and draw.
The Link: How do you balance your everyday life with your passion for creating art?
Naseeba: It has never been too much of a challenge. Sometimes I am watching the TV and I am drawing at the same time. If I am relaxing I would take out my sketchbook and again I would draw. Whenever I find time, I try to squeeze it in. I set my priorities and stick to them, so it works out well. My work helps me relieve stress. Then my friends, and my family are very supportive. When I made my work public it was a big thing and this support I got meant the world to me and made every step easier.
The Link: Where do you see yourself three years from now?
Naseeba: To tell you the truth I have no idea. I never expected my work to be this successful. I am so thankful to Allah for giving me these opportunities. I just want to use my art in a good and positive way, not just to make money. I don't want it to become a business. To give you an example of how I want to use my art I will share an incident with you. One of my friends was doing some work for the Muslim community in Cuba. There was a need for donations in all forms and ways. I wanted to help. I told her that all I can do is draw, so she suggested that I draw colouring pages for the children. Luckily, I had images of masjids which I gave her and that was my contribution. So there are many ways art can make a difference. I must add that I realize this talent is a blessing from God, and I treat it with the respect it deserves. I do not take it for granted,
The Link: Tell us something about Naseeba the person.
Naseeba: First and foremost, I am a mother of two boys. I love them, they drive me crazy, but they keep my life interesting. The elder is eighteen and the younger is eleven. My husband is very supportive and appreciative of my work and so are my parents. My sister is one of my biggest fan. My mother can draw really well even though she has never done anything formally. One of her first cousins is also an artist. In the new generation, I have niece who likes to draw. I can safely say art runs in the family. You can see some of this talented artist's work on her Instagram page: illustrations.by.nk
Though all of Naseeba's work is breathtaking, I was especially moved by a sketch of Masjid ul Nabwi, (Mosque of the Prophet) in Madinah and one of Bait Ullah, (House of God) in Makkah, Saudi Arabia. Images recreated by a humble pilgrim, an obvious labour of love and devotion. She had already shared with me how moved she was after her Hajj pilgrimage and the visit to Madinah. These sketches bore testimony to that claim. As we stared in silence at the recreation of the famous green dome of the mosque in Madinah, I could see next to me eyes glistening with respect and gratitude for the Gracious giver of talents; and hands blessed with the remarkable ability to create.

There is little doubt that trying to get a monkey to learn new tricks is easier than getting a stubborn little two year old to eat a plateful of veggies. However, there are ways to encourage and build healthy eating habits in toddlers and you can do it without losing your hair or your mind.
To begin with, accept the fact that toddlers are unique individuals with minds of their own. Therefore, if broccoli is not what they want, you wouldn't be able to get them to open those tightly clamped lips. However, you can get them to eat it by exercising a little ingenuity and a dash of imagination. Here are a few ways to do just that.
Use Nutritious Favorite Foods
Every toddler would have a few favorites which would often be somewhat healthy. So, try and give the offending vegetable or fruit along with that favorite. For instance, if bread is the food of the day and banana is not, then try making banana spread and putting it on bread slices. You could do the same with any vegetable, after boiling and pureeing it.
Make Meals Interesting and Healthy
Toddlers enjoy meals that offer something to look forward to. Sometimes, simply dressing up the food would do the trick. So, you could make sweet potato smilies, or clown-faced sandwiches, submarine fish fingers, cutlets in various shapes and so on. That would give them an element of fun along with good nutrition, encouraging them to eat well.
Juices and Soups
Toddlers who don't enjoy eating fruits would normally drink those in the form of juices and smoothies. So, experiment with a single fruit to begin with and then start mixing them up. The same is true for vegetables and soups. If your toddler is game with food floating in his soup, put in small pasta shapes and have him fish them out with his spoon. Make it interesting and appealing to his tiny but demanding tastes.
Use Variety for Nutrition
Toddlers tend to get bored with the same type of food. So, vary the form and type of dish. Giving them carrot sticks once, carrot cake the next time is bound to keep the element of interest alive and give them additional nutrition as well. You could even use different types of breads and cereals to provide them with both nutrition and variety.
Experiment With Food Temperature
Usually, toddlers who don't enjoy a food when it is served warm, may take to it when served cold or vice-versa. It may not appeal to or agree with more grown-up tastes, but then, in the toddler world, it is a whole different ball game. So, if vegetable soup is not liked hot, chill it. Try the same with cereals and even, casseroles and other main dishes. Chances are they'd be more appreciated at temperatures different than what they are originally served at.
Make Meals Fun and Pleasant
Mealtimes should always be enjoyable experiences. Threatening, yelling and bribing don't make for healthy eating experiences. So, make dining a delightful time with smiles, laughter and conversation. Toddlers, like adults, enjoy good company. And if your toddler is extremely social, get a friend, who eats well, over for dinner. It may be extra work, but chances are your toddler may start eating well, just looking at his friend eat.
The book What To Expect The Toddler Years by Arlene Eisenberg, Heidi Murkoff and Sandee Hathaway [Workman, 1996] is extremely helpful and loaded with tips and tricks to get demanding and picky toddlers to eat healthy.
Fussy toddlers and odd eating habits are like most things, a part of growing up. While it is important that they get the best nutrition possible, they should also, enjoy that meal. So, do use these steps to encourage healthy eating habits but also, remember that to let toddlers enjoy food and the experience of eating is most important.

Britain's Labor Party recently warned that thousands of radiation detectors are needed to protect London from a terrorist attack.
The U.K. Shadow Defense Secretary Jim Murphy said that London needs to emulate New York by building a radiation defensive ring that monitors traffic on all of the tunnels and bridges that lead into the city, according to LondonLovesBusiness.com.
New York, according to Murphy, has more than 4,500 radiation detectors that can aid authorities in determining threat levels or the nature of an attack.
Murphy made the statements in an article he wrote for DefenceManagement.com.
"The threat posed by CBRN in the U.K. is very real, and one Londoners live with," Murphy said, DefenceManagement.com reports. "We look at the sarin attacks in Tokyo and understand the tragic havoc which could be wreaked should a terrorist try something similar on the London Underground, which carries three million people a day from all around the world. London is a global city facing a global threat, and so it is right that we look to our partners for inspiration as to how we can protect ourselves."
The U.K. Home Office briefly responded to Murphy's comments.
"Emergency services have the training and equipment necessary to identify and respond to radiological, chemical, biological and nuclear threats," a spokesman said, LondonLovesBusiness.com. "This work is part of our well established plans in place to deal with terrorist incidents."
