BtoB: What's the biggest mistake marketers make in optimizing email for mobile?
Jennifer Leigh Brown: B-to-b marketers acknowledge the importance of mobile, but many haven't taken the steps to serve the needs of mobile users. Only 33% of b-to-b marketers are designing emails for smartphones, according to a recent MarketingSherpa report. Given the continued rise of mobile, doing nothing is probably the biggest mistake a b-to-b marketer can make.
BtoB: What best practices should marketers follow for mobile email?
Brown: 1) Define your strategy. Before getting into tactics and design, define your goals. Analyze your audience's usage of mobile and determine how you can deliver something that is useful.
2) Follow the recognition and relevancy rule. Whether viewed on the go or at a desk, the inbox is a crowded and competitive place. Focused subject lines and a clear "from" line will help your message escape inbox purging, but only valuable content will convince users to open the email.
3) Don't assume mobile is always mobile. Many mobile email users scan for important messages and leave the rest for later review. An email previewed on a mobile device may end up being read on a tablet or desktop. Offer users a choice of an email version, either when they subscribe or through header links in the email.
4) Streamline and simplify. Remove unnecessary items, edit text, reduce large images and consider load times. Know the scale you are designing for so users don't have to resize and scroll. A functional and easy-to-use design will serve users across platforms.
5) Avoid tiny text and remember "fat fingers." Font sizes need to be larger and targets big enough to easily hit. The average adult finger pad is 0.4 inches.
Recommendations vary by device but in general, minimum target sizes should be 44-by-44 pixels with adequate spacing between elements. Make sure to pad links and make calls to action obvious so the targets are easy to identify and tap.
6) Don't forget to be social. If you have a presence on social media sites, include the links in your email and encourage following and sharing.
7) Optimize the entire experience. Make sure the landing pages for your email links are optimized for mobile. M

ACCRA (Reuters) - Ghanaians choose on Friday who will run one of Africa's most stable democracies as a surge in oil revenues promises to boost development and economic growth.
Ghana has earned a reputation as an oasis of stability and progress in West Africa, a part of the world better known for civil wars, coups, entrenched poverty and corruption.
"These elections are important not just to Ghana, but for the growing number of states and actors seeking to benefit from increasing confidence in Africa," said Alex Vines, Africa Research Director at Chatham House.
Incumbent leader John Dramani Mahama - who replaced the late John Atta Mills after his death from an illness in July - will face main opposition candidate Nana Akufo-Addo of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), and six others.
Opinion polls point to a tight race between the two main candidates, raising the prospect of a repeat of the near deadlock in 2008 elections, in which Mills defeated Akufo-Addo with a margin of less than one percent.
"We know it will be close, but the important thing is that Ghanaians will accept the results," said John Mark, a shuttle bus driver in the sprawling capital Accra. "We must preserve our peace," he said.
U.S. President Barack Obama has called Ghana a "model of democracy in Africa" for stepping back from the brink during the tight 2008 polls, when other countries in the region might have tipped into conflict.
Ivory Coast erupted into civil war last year after disputed elections in 2010, and other regional neighbors Mali and Guinea Bissau have been thrown into chaos by military coups.
"In all this, let us remember that Ghana is bigger and more important than any of us," Mahama said late on Thursday in a radio address ahead of the poll. "The surest way to sustain and enhance our enviable image is to go to the polls tomorrow in an atmosphere of peace," he said.
The stakes are high this time around with rivals jousting for a chance to oversee a boom in oil revenues that has brought hopes of increased development in a country where the average person still makes less than $4 a day.
U.K.-based Tullow Oil, which operates Ghana's only producing field, says it expects output to rise to 120,000 barrels per day in 2013 from between 60,000 and 90,000 bpd this year, while more big deposits have been found.
Ghana, also a major cocoa and gold producer, is expected to keep up growth of about 8 percent next year and is increasingly cited by investment bankers and fund managers as a growth gem, in contrast to the woes of Europe and the United States.
Across the capital Accra, evidence of the resource wealth abounds - brightly-lit multi-storey buildings, cranes looming over new construction sites, well-paved roads, and billboards advertising banks, cars, and mobile phones.
But many Ghanaians remain out in the cold. An influx of people from rural parts of the country, hoping for jobs in the capital, has yielded a sprawl of outlying shanty towns and many homeless on the city's streets.
Akufo-Addo, a trained lawyer and son of a former Ghanaian president has criticized the ruling party for the slow pace of job creation and fighting poverty, and says he would use the expected uptick in oil wealth to pay for free primary and secondary education.
Mahama, meanwhile, says his party's investments in infrastructure will bring increased prosperity over time. He said he aims to put Ghana on the path to a per capita annual income of $2,300 by 2017 - double that in 2009.
But in a country where campaign messages rarely influence voting choices, many believe more than half of the 14 million voters will cast their ballot based on ethnic and social affiliation, or regionalism.
Mahama is from the north, where he finds his strongest support, and Akufo-Addo, well-liked by fellow Ashanti people and favored in Ghana's second-city Kumasi, is from the east.
On Friday, voters will also elect 275 legislators.
There are 45 more seats in parliament than during the 2008 election, in which Mahama's National Democratic Congress (NDC) won a small majority.

Older News » Flu seasonLast updated 10:55 AM on 15 September 2011
Winter is here and that means flu season.
The flu is more than a bad cold; cold symptoms last one to two days, while the flu can last up to a week.
A cold can sometimes cause a mild fever, while the flu causes a high fever. Muscular pains and shivering attacks occur with the flu, while not with a cold. A cold causes a runny nose, while the flu starts with a dry sensation in the nose and throat. Flu is the kind of infection that happens to most people every five to ten years.
Flu symptoms develop one to three days after infection and include high fever, chills and sweating, sore throat, weakness, headache and muscle and joint pains.
The recommended treatment for flu is:
- Stay in bed and rest until the temperature has been normal for 48 hours
- Drink enough fluids to maintain normal urine output
- Take paracetamol to control fever, aches and pains
- Use antiviral medication early, as this may shorten the length and severity of illness
- Avoid exposure to dust, alcohol, fumes and tobacco smoke as much as possible
- Consult a doctor if symptoms such as difficulty breathing, coughing up green/yellow phlegm or severe headache develop.

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Science-fiction drama "Defiance" wants to go where no television series has gone before, weaving a show with an online video game to achieve the elusive goal of parlaying success on one entertainment platform to another.
The new series, which premieres on U.S. cable channel Syfy on April 15, tells the story of frontier town Defiance, formerly St. Louis, in the near future following a 30-year war between humans and seven alien races.
Syfy last week released a multi-player, plot-based video game, developed with Trion Worlds, that lets users build their own personas and explore the landscape of a reshaped Earth in the San Francisco area. The game is made for Sony's PlayStation 3, Microsoft's Xbox360 and PC.
Spinning a film or TV series into a video game, or vice versa, is nothing new. But producers say "Defiance" is the first to weave both game and show together at the same time. The video game alone took some five years to create.
Known in the entertainment industry as the "second screen," the concept lets viewers engage with a show on a second platform on which networks pin hopes for additional advertising sales and cementing a dedicated fan base.
"What's unusual about what we're doing ... is we're building the second-screen concept into the actual DNA of the show-game combo," "Defiance" executive producer Kevin Murphy told Reuters.
"We're working to make a terrific serialized drama that stands on its own, but we understand that what has people watching us is the fact that this cross-platform promotional is something very, very desirable."
"Defiance" will be a guinea pig for the viability of merging media like video games with TV shows.
"Nobody has done this before, that's the scary part," he said. "The wonderful part is that there's nobody to say, 'No, no, no, that's not the way it's done.
"It's something (Syfy President) Dave Howe always refers to as the holy grail of entertainment," he added.
Syfy spent about $100 million to develop the game and show, and the network expects about 20 percent of viewers and players to cross over between the two platforms.
"We're very cautiously optimistic," Howe said, adding that it will still take the standard four or five weeks to know if "Defiance" will be renewed for a second season.
The "Defiance" cast is led by ex-Marine and vagabond Nolan, played by "Liz & Dick" star Grant Bowler, and his adopted alien daughter Irisa (Stephanie Leonidas).
The two finally become tied down helping Defiance Mayor Amanda Rosewater (Julie Benz) defend the town from invasion.
Murphy, whose past credits include writer and producer on TV drama "Desperate Housewives," said there are plans for several crossovers between the series and game, including adapting user-created personas from the game into subsequent seasons of the television show.
Murphy said he wanted to depart from the recent popular television series of dark, dystopian sci-fi, such as AMC's "Walking Dead" and Syfy's "Battlestar Galactica."
"I think this is sort of a tip of the hat more to the old-school science-fiction like 'Star Trek' and 'Star Wars,' which were very hopeful, optimistic worlds," Murphy said.
The show often reflects American challenges of an ethnically diverse and often divided society.
In the pilot, polyglot alliances are tricky as humans and some races of aliens must reluctantly brush aside differences to protect the town from automatons known as the Volge.
"On our show, the aliens are not invading us," Murphy said. "The aliens are part of the melting pot .... They each have their own sort of social mores that they left behind and have been challenged because they've come to a new world."

Durning's longtime agent and friend, Judith Moss, told The Associated Press that he died of natural causes in his home in the borough of Manhattan.
Although he portrayed everyone from blustery public officials to comic foils to put-upon everymen, Durning may be best remembered by movie audiences for his Oscar-nominated, over-the-top role as a comically corrupt governor in 1982's The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas.
Durning received another Oscar nomination, for his portrayal of a bumbling Nazi officer in Mel Brooks' To Be or Not to Be. He was also nominated for a Golden Globe as the harried police lieutenant in 1975's Dog Day Afternoon.
He won a Golden Globe as best supporting TV actor in 1991 for his portrayal of John "Honey Fitz" Fitzgerald in the TV film The Kennedys of Massachusetts and a Tony in 1990 as Big Daddy in the Broadway revival of "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof."
Durning had begun his career on stage, getting his first big break when theatrical producer Joseph Papp hired him for the New York Shakespeare Festival. He went on to work regularly through the 1960s until his breakout role as a small town mayor in the Pulitzer- and Tony Award-winning play "That Championship Season" in 1972.
From July to November 1972, Durning played Gil McGowan in ANOTHER WORLD, a role most associated with his successor Dolph Sweet.
Durnings primetime credits included THE DOCTORS AND THE NURSES, NOW AND AGAIN, EVENING SHADE, EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND, RESCUE ME and THE COP AND THE KID.
Durning and his first wife had three children before divorcing in 1972. In 1974, he married his high school sweetheart, Mary Ann Amelio.
He is survived by his children, Michele, Douglas and Jeannine. The family planned to have a private family service and burial at Arlington National Cemetery.

So many layers, so little ink.
To thoroughly break down the events that have occurred in the St. Louis County suburb of Ferguson and their ramifications, this space is insufficient.
What I can tell you is that I understand Ferguson. I know Ferguson. I was born and raised in south St. Louis, about 20 minutes from that enclave in the northern suburbs of my hometown.
I spent a great deal of time in Ferguson as a 20-something, including an entire summer horsing around with a few friends in the Canfield Green apartment complex on Canfield Drive, site of the fatal shooting of an unarmed 18-year-old by a police officer — now an international news story.
A looted and burned-down corporate-owned convenience store/gas station has become the common gathering site for passionate protesters. I've been in that store through the years too many times to count.
To see the nightly destruction of Ferguson hurts my heart to the core. Tear gas, rubber bullets, police dogs, armored vehicles, automatic weapons, Molotov cocktail explosives. It all brings back images of civil unrest from the past.
It's disheartening to witness antagonistic sorts taunting law enforcement officials to incite chaos.
Having grown up near there, I understand the underlying tension that has played out in front of the world. However, the looting and rioting add another element to the situation that I detest. The few who have found an excuse to brazenly steal and destroy take away from the efforts of peaceful protesters. My hope is that those willfully breaking the law face the consequences of their actions through diligent police work.
Some of those peaceful protesters on the front line are my contemporaries, people I've known for years. Some I've studied and played with as schoolchildren, and others I've hung out with as adults. They relay to me the power of change they sense in the area. The looters play only a bit part of a bigger movement, they tell me.
Change is coming, they say. History is in the making, they believe. "Justice will be served" is their calling card.
So many layers, so little ink.
The advent of digital and social media and the proliferation of bloggers and pundits have brought the situation in Ferguson to the front of not only America's psyche but the world's as well. What started as a major local story soon spread regionally before garnering national headlines. Now it has gone international. Traditional media — print, television and radio — have added layers to the story as well.
I shuddered when I heard about or saw photos of fellow journalists threatened and arrested by law enforcement and/or assaulted by unruly roughnecks disguised as protesters. Those images sickened me.
Couple that with the aggressive crowd-control approach toward peaceful protesters, and it's easy to feel uneasy. No matter what opinions one has formed, nor what side of the fence one sits on, this is the United States of America. We have an inalienable right to peaceful assembly and freedom of the press. I am a proponent for those rights.
To see those rights trampled should put us all on high alert.
So many layers, so little ink.
There is a history of discord between young people and not only law enforcement throughout the country but authority in general. It stems from a lack of communication, understanding and, to a larger degree, sensitivity to each other's role in a democratic society. The adversarial relationship we see playing out is basically that: a lack of communication, trust and understanding developed over years and passed down from generations on both sides of the fence.
So many layers, so little ink.
A lot of lessons can be gleaned from the turmoil in Ferguson. In the end, we are Americans. We believe in and protect our constitutional rights. As Americans, we should all be concerned about what has transpired there: the good, the bad and the ugly.
Although I am not there with boots on the ground, I personally know people who are: friends, journalism colleagues and bloggers alike. What I've witnessed through their various channels of dissemination has been an overwhelming support and togetherness that I've never seen in St. Louis or its neighboring suburbs.
What's happening in Ferguson could become a microcosm of what is possible across the country.
My hope is that Ferguson opens our collective hearts and minds to each other. Then and only then can we truly peel off the layers of distrust and reconcile as a nation.

Golden Eagles return to action Friday at Jacksonville State
COOKEVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee Tech used a strong defensive performance to go toe-to-toe with defending Ohio Valley Conference champion Morehead State in the first half of Sunday's match, but the Eagles got the better of TTU in the second period, leaving Tech Soccer Field with a 1-0 victory.
The Golden Eagles and Eagles finished the first 45 minutes of play even in most statistical categories, but Morehead quickly went on the attack early in the second, scoring the only goal of the match in the 51st minute.
Stephanie Gildehaus placed a corner kick into a crowd in front of the Tech goal and Elizabeth Tresnak booted it into the back of the net to give Morehead a 1-0 lead.
Tech held the Eagles scoreless for the rest of the match but couldn't generate a goal of its own despite several chances.
The Golden Eagles' best scoring opportunity came in the 74th minute when a Sarah Gawthrop shot hit the crossbar, just inches from sailing through to tie the game.
Tech had several big defensive plays throughout the game, with one of the most significant coming in the 38th minute when junior defender Julie Thompson, playing close to the goal, booted away a ball headed for the back of the net, preserving the scoreless tie at halftime.
The Golden Eagles took eight shots on the afternoon, six of which were on goal. Tech earned five corner kicks and got nine saves from sophomore goalkeeper Becca Toler.
Morehead finished with 20 shots, 10 of which were on goal. The Eagles earned 10 corner kicks and got six saves from goalkeeper Katie Blevins.
Tech will return to action on Friday, Oct. 7 at Jacksonville State. Match time is 7 p.m.

I got my usual sales stuff from SANS today and this time something caught my eye. It was under the prerequisites for one of the courses and it suggested that if you don't get 70% on the following Quiz then you should probably thake this other course first.
It turns out to be a nice little TCP/IP quiz and I thought AO'ers might like to give it a bash.

Poaching and antler theft incidents have more than quadrupled in the past 40 years. Comparably, law-enforcement budgets have not kept up with inflation.
By Les Davenport
It is a rare deer hunter who does not know at least one person who has had a deer, antlers or a shoulder mount stolen from them at some point in their life. It's even more rare to find a hunter who does not know about a trophy buck that was poached in their home county.
This troubling subject brings forth myriad questions.
•Why is this problem growing progressively worse each year?
•Why can't law enforcement slow the tide?
•Why are repeat offenders … repeat offenders?
Unfortunately, those questions give rise to answers in the form of more questions.
•Is it the escalating worth of antlers?
•Is it the slumping economy?
•Are they merely "crimes of opportunity" where normally ethical hunters slip up when temptation gets the best of them?
•Are many of these crimes being committed by wayward teenagers?
•Are some antler thefts related to the illegal drug trade?
•Is the pressure of being a pro-staffer or wannabe video hero causing some of this plague?
•Is there not enough law enforcement personnel to keep and eye on rural America?
•Does some of the blame fall onto the victims themselves?
Concerning the second set of questions, I will submit the answer is "Yes" to all them!
Sea of Change
Many aspects of deer hunting have gradually changed over the past 40 years. The worth of antlers has skyrocketed tenfold; the prestige in the deer world of harvesting a world-class whitetail has ramped up beyond belief; and the politically based importance of protecting whitetails has taken a back seat in state budgets.
What's really disturbing is the increasing number of those in authority who have become part of this plague. For example, two state troopers from Michigan recently plea-bargained a felony charge of poaching a buck out of season — while on duty — to reduce the offense to a misdemeanor. This was obviously a case of cops getting a break they did not deserve. It's so ironic and so wrong. These are individuals we entrust to uphold the law.
It's amazing to find that Google holds 70 active pages of poaching articles. Many of these cases involve individuals from mainstream media, political offices and law-enforcement groups who were caught poaching trophy-caliber white-tailed bucks.
Although the greatest percent of members in these groups are dedicated, moral, and ethical whitetail hunters, why would even a small percentage of them risk a job, possible arrest, or the embarrassment of being caught stealing wildlife? I'd say it is for the same reasons any citizen does: prestige, excitement, financial gain … or a moment of pure stupidity.
More Trophies, Fewer Wardens
Poaching and antler theft incidents have more than quadrupled in the last 40 years. Comparably, law-enforcement budgets have not kept up with inflation, causing fewer conservation officers in the field every year. The dwindling presence of county, state and federal law enforcement in rural areas due to budget cuts has also caused poachers and antler thieves to become more brazen.
Our county courts have grown so overburdened with drug and domestic violence prosecutions that major poaching and antler thefts are quickly reduced to misdemeanors via plea bargains — like the aforementioned Michigan case. Yes, wildlife fines for poaching trophy-class bucks have increased in most states, but not nearly to a high enough level for deterring hard-core poachers. Regrettably, we seem to have unknowingly elected politicians who have no ambition for legislating even more stringent fines that could ebb poaching.
Here's an idea: All states should have a "three-strikes and you're out" wildlife law that applies to poaching offenses.
First offense: The offender is given three days in jail, a stiff fine, revocation of hunting rights for one year and mandatory monthly classes with a qualified conservation officer for one year.
Second offense: A repeat offender receives a month in jail, confiscation and sale of any weapon, equipment, or vehicle used during the crime, an even stiffer fine, revocation of a hunting license for five years, and additional classes with a warden.
Third offense: The offender is considered "hard core" and receives three years behind bars with no chance of parole. They would also have to compensate the state wildlife agency for the wildlife loss.
I believe occasional enforcement of a three-strike law would drastically reduce repeat offenses. However, I'm enough of a realist to know that such laws will likely never see the light of day. The bottom line: It's up to each of us to help slow this growing plague.
Support Your Local Game Warden
If you have information about deer poaching or home invasion for the purpose of antler theft, don't sit on the sidelines and gossip about it. Report it!
These two crimes fall under different jurisdictions. Poaching deer is a wildlife violation, so call a warden. The theft of antlers (legally collected) or a mounted deer (legally harvested) is investigated and prosecuted through city, village or county authorities. Not until a poached deer or stolen mount crosses state lines does state and federal authority usually kick in.
All state wildlife, city and county law enforcement agencies post hot lines for reporting poaching and theft. Providing tips can be done anonymously and, in some cases, rewards are offered. Reporting an infraction helps put law enforcement in lawbreaker's arena.
"When reporting a poaching incident anonymously, be sure to give as many details as possible about the illegal activity and the perpetrators," said Ohio Conservation Officer Robert Nelson. He also advises callers to give the exact details of the situation and the location so the incident can be thoroughly investigated.
Most wardens patrol between 160 and 1,000 square miles. Essential enforcement duties for wardens include enforcing wildlife, criminal, vehicle and drug laws on private and public lands and waters. They also enforce timber, endangered species, snowmobile, fur-buyer, taxidermist, and fish market laws and regulations.
Non-enforcement duties for wardens include speaking at sport clubs, civic meetings and school activities; staffing informational booths at major sports, travel and boating expositions; assisting with hunting, boating and snowmobiling safety education programs; helping other law-enforcement agencies with emergency and rescue situations; and supporting internship programs for wildlife officer recruitment.
On top of all these job obligations, it's mandatory for wardens to write full reports on all major law infractions, document vehicle and equipment work and maintenance, and record all overtime activity (if overtime money is even in the budget).
The average game warden's time in the field at night during fall and winter only amounts to about 20 percent of their total on-shift hours for the year. Help them be in the right place at the right time!
Neighborhood Watch Groups
Iowa is rich with trophy whitetails and ethical hunters. Unfortunately, it also has an overabundance of poachers and antler thieves.
One of the most noted neighborhood watch groups in Iowa was formed by famous hunting brothers Barry and Gene Wensel. They moved to southern Iowa from Montana several years ago in hopes of harvesting giant Midwestern bucks. Although the Wensels have managed their property well and have harvested some big whitetails, they began wondering if it was worth the hassle, because they were continually encountering poaching and theft problems. The brothers finally took a stand after losing 33 of their locked-and-chained tree stands to thieves and finding eight mature bucks dead on their property … with no heads.
The Wensels asked neighbors to watch for strange vehicles in the area and jot down license-plate numbers. They also asked for donations for a reward fund that would pay for information leading to the conviction of the poachers and thieves. Ten thousand dollars was raised and offered to the public. Fliers were posted in area businesses.
A sting eventually netted a group of hard core Florida-based poachers. The tree-stand thefts were never prosecuted. Thievery of the Wensels' stands and hundreds of others in southern Iowa were reportedly being carried out by a group of 20-year-olds involved in drugs. It was thought that the stolen stands were being sold at a popular Missouri flea market. However, an Iowa warden told the Wensels the neighborhood watch program helped cut poaching incidents in the area by more than 50 percent.
While interviewing wardens for this article, I found it quite interesting to learn that poachers are often turned in by their own relatives. This is more prevalent in states that protect the identity of all informants.
Another area-wide neighborhood watch occurred in southeastern Iowa by Paul Fountain and his fellow landowners. It entailed the planting of shed antlers with trail cameras hidden nearby.
One of the watch participants put out four cameras on a large parcel in hopes of catching a known trespasser. He got photos of three different shed poachers. One could not be identified, but the other two were recognized and prosecuted. Some of the cameras used in that sting were connected via satellite technology and sent photos to a computer immediately upon being snapped. Some of the antler poachers who also stole the cameras were prosecuted for theft over $300 — a felony that comes with jail time!
Get Involved
Be the first in your area to organize a neighborhood watch against poaching and antler theft. It's important to be collective about not giving a break or warning to poachers, thieves or trespassers.
The Wensels learned this lesson all too well. The teenage son of a neighbor was caught exiting the Wensel property with several illegally obtained sheds. The Wensels decided not to prosecute for trespassing. Instead, Barry had the county sheriff deliver a warning to the parents.
Inform your warden about any neighborhood watch being organized; most will be glad to meet with your group and provide details on what to watch for.
Do not — under any circumstance — chase a poacher or antler thief. Years ago, in my home county, a farmer chased two suspected poachers at high speeds. The poachers wrecked their vehicle during the chase and sustained major injuries. They sued the farmer, and he was held liable for the hospital bills and vehicle damage. He didn't receive any jail time, but that was a possibility.
An Ounce of Prevention
Jack Bell of Burlington, Iowa, and many of his fellow Iowans lost Boone-and-Crockett-class deer mounts to an organized group of thugs suspected to be working out of Waterloo. Even though Iowa authorities were almost certain who the thieves were, there was never enough law-enforcement staffing assigned to the task to catch these criminals.
Years after the theft of Bell's buck, it was reported the mount hung on the wall of a convicted felon living in northern Missouri. The caller reported the sighting to an Iowa officer. This occurred almost a year ago, but the felon's house has yet to be searched. Ironically, the Missouri man could be directly linked to the Waterloo thugs.
The circumstances involving the disappearance and reappearance of Bell's mount fortifies my point about county and state law enforcement's overall lack of attention to this type of theft. Most who have deer mounts stolen or bucks poached off their property find the county court systems show extreme leniency when deliberating about crimes involving deer. It's the rare judge who will not allow a felony charge to be reduced to a misdemeanor on a first conviction. A good lawyer can plead even a second offense down to a misdemeanor in most states. This has undoubtedly affected the attitudes of many of our best wardens.
The Best Plan
Sometimes your best defense as a deer hunter is a good offense. Thieves prefer targeting the cabins, trailers and equipment buildings of absentee landowners. Poachers target highly managed properties without locked gates and, usually, in rural regions with negligible populations.
Ask the local warden or sheriff deputy to put your property on an area watch. Leave a radio on and put a light on a timer in any uninhabited buildings. Specialty signs stating that your property is protected by satellite surveillance can ward off burglary and poaching. Always photograph your mounts and insure them for their full value. Secretly mark equipment — especially tree stands and trail cameras — so identification makes prosecution possible.
Cameras and GPS tracking chips are becoming more affordable. Hunters will soon be able to have their taxidermists insert tiny tracking chips in their mounted deer. The insertion hole will be a quarter inch or less in diameter and drilled from the inside of the skull plate where it cannot be noticed. Authorities will be able to track a stolen mount or shed antler anywhere within the range of the specified satellite, which likely will be nationwide. This technology is already in use in Yellowstone Park; it's similar to cell-phone tracking.
The growing popularity of rural neighborhood watches, satellite-monitoring surveillance cameras and tracking devices being installed in mounts leaves only one thing unsaid:
Poachers and antler thieves: Beware! Your time of prosecution is near.

James L. Easton, CEO of Jas. D. Easton Inc., received the Olive Branch Achievement Award from the U.S. Olympic Committee and Allstate Insurance Co. during his induction into the U.S. Olympic Hall of Fame.
Easton is CEO of Jas. D. Easton Inc., an international sporting goods company started by his father, Doug, in 1922. The company includes archery subsidiaries such as Easton Technical Products (arrows and mountain products), Hoyt Archery (bows) and Delta Sports (targets). He also founded the nonprofit Easton Foundations, which develops grassroots programs in schools, colleges, universities and communities to help inspire the next generation of Olympic hopefuls.
The USOC's Olive Branch award honors those who best represent the international ideals of the Olympic movement by building a peaceful and better world through sport. The induction ceremony was July 12 in Chicago.
Other 2012 inductees were Gail Devers, track and field; Jean Driscoll, Paralympic track and field; Gary Hall Jr., swimming; Lisa Fernandez, softball; Kristine Lilly, soccer; Dan O'Brien, track and field; Jenny Thompson, swimming; the 2004 U.S. Olympic softball team; Ed Temple, track and field coach; James Connolly, track and field veteran; and Sen. Ted Stevens, special contributor.
For health reasons, Easton couldn't attend the induction ceremony. His son Greg, president of Jas. D. Easton Inc. and chair of the Archery Trade Association Board of Directors, accepted the award on his behalf.
"This is a great honor for my dad," Greg Easton said this week while attending the 2012 London Olympics. "His life work was supporting archery and the Olympic movement, and he was moved to receive this award."
Easton said his father's integrity, strong work ethic and passion for innovation helped grow the Easton companies. He said his father shared those principles in his work with international sports and the Olympic movement. That involvement began in 1976 when he helped return archery to the Olympics at the Montreal Games.
"My father is a humble man who always worked harder than anyone I know," Easton said. "His humility and his integrity set the standard for the organizations he was involved with, and were of great value to these organizations. His strong personality helped change the culture of these organizations for the better, and for the betterment of sport around the world.
"My father does not talk a lot about what he accomplished in his various international roles, and I think we may never know the full scope of his positive influence. But I know everything he did was with the utmost integrity, and was driven by a passion to improve everything he was involved in."

In a statement released before the ceremony, Jim Easton said: "This award … was unexpected and I appreciate the honor. I have always been proud to represent the U.S. in my various international roles. I have very good friends in the international sports community, and share this honor with them."
Jay McAninch, ATA CEO/president, said the archery industry has long benefited from Jim Easton's work and commitment to the sport and the Olympics.
"Our industry needs to honor and direct more attention to those who support the Olympic archery program, and no one sets a better example than Jim Easton," McAninch said. "He's at the head of that list, by far. Our industry must do all it can the next four years to build on Jim's legacy and make the Olympics and world archery competition a major source of industry pride."
Easton's work with the Olympic and Paralympic movements included being the founding donor of the World Archery's Fondation Internationale de Developpement du Tir a l'Arc (FIDTA). He also served as president of archery's international governing body, World Archery (then known as FITA), from 1989 until 2005. He remains the organization's honorary president.
He became a member of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in 1994, and served as IOC vice president and member of the executive board from 2002 to 2006. He currently serves on the IOC's nominations and marketing commissions, and is a member of the USOC Board of Directors.
"It is an honor to recognize Jim Easton with the Olive Branch Achievement Award for his contributions to the growth of Olympic and Paralympic Movements in the United States," said Scott Blackmun, USOC chief executive officer. "Jim has been a friend to the USOC for many years, and has given much in support of the aspirations of our Olympians and Paralympians. He is a true sportsman at heart and his love of sport shows in all that he does."

A tip from Susan: Get the look of stitching without a needle and thread! I used a pen to create simple straight stitch penwork rather than taking the time to hand-sew a stitched border around the edges. And penwork doesn't always have to be black. I used an opaque white pen to add the penwork to this layout, coordinating the rest of the layout with the white stitched look that's printed on the background paper's border. An easy technique? Place a ruler on your project and hold the pen up against the edge of the ruler while making short, straight, evenly spaced lines.

Ecuador requests protection from UN for Galapagos Islands
WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) - Ecuador says tourism is threatening the Galapagos Islands and has asked UNESCO to add the habitat that inspired the theory of evolution to its endangered list, the culture agency said Friday.
The U.N. agency's World Heritage Committee will consider Ecuador's request at a weeklong meeting that begins in New Zealand on Saturday, chairman Tumu te Heuheu said.
The Galapagos Islands, about 620 miles off Ecuador's Pacific coast, are home to unique animal species that inspired Charles Darwin's ideas on evolution. They are also Ecuador's top tourist attraction.
The country's president, Rafael Correa, says the islands are suffering an environmental crisis and has called for restrictions on tourists.
The islands have ''a very fragile ecosystem and there is a need to manage those activities,'' Te HeuHeu said.
UNESCO protects 830 sites around the world that have what it describes as ''outstanding universal values.'' The Galapagos gained World Heritage Site status in 1978.
The Tower of London is another World Heritage Site the organization will consider listing as ''in danger'' when it meets in the southern city of Christchurch. The 900-year-old fortress once towered over the city but now skyscrapers threaten the view from its turreted towers.
Some 31 World Heritage Sites are already on the danger list. Besides tourism, the threats include natural disasters, pillaging and pollution.
Delegates will also consider applications to add at least another 45 new sites _ including the Sydney Harbor Bridge and the Sydney Opera House in Australia _ to the World Heritage list.
The meeting will also examine how climate change is affecting World Heritage sites and ways to protect them from natural disasters.

Saveur magazine called Vancouver Island a "west coast epicurean centre."
Vancouver Island restaurants make good use of abundant local produce, a year-round supply of fresh seafood and a wide variety of artisan food products.
Enjoy dining with ocean vistas on many parts of the island, ranging from dinners in Tofino or Sooke to casual family resorts near Parksville. Many chefs form close partnerships with farmers and fishers to create local, seasonal cuisine; sample fresh seafood and craft beer in Victoria or taste lamb raised on a Salt Spring Island farm.
Vancouver Island restaurants have won accolades from Conde Nast Traveler, Zagat, Travel + Leisure and Relais & Chateaux.

Savour fine dining and harbour views in Victoria and Sooke, or enjoy the casual ambience of many family resorts along the oceanside route (Highway 19A) near Parksville and Qualicum Beach.
On the west coast, sample amazing restaurants near Tofino, where the ocean panoramas are as impressive as the food (especially during storm-watching season).
The Gulf Islands offer many culinary adventures: Dine on famous Salt Spring Island lamb or freshly caught dungeness crab while gazing over Ganges Harbour, or indulge in a feast of fresh, regional cuisine at a luxurious Pender Island resort.
For a special occasion dinner, celebrate with waterfront champagne brunch at a resort overlooking Discovery Pass near Campbell River. Cruising the Inside Passage? Many ships dock on northern Vancouver Island, which creates an opportunity to try some fresh seafood or dig into filling food at a Port Hardy waterfront pub.
Many restaurants and chefs are committed to the 100-Mile Diet, a philosophy dedicated to sourcing locally grown, sustainable food. Chefs often partner with organic farmers, producers and farmers markets in the Cowichan Valley and Comox Valley. Try locally-produced food that ranges from wildflower honey or organic lamb to brie cheese or craft beer and artisinal spirits.
Ocean Wise, a program dedicated to promoting sustainable seafood harvesting practices, has been embraced by many Vancouver Island restaurants and chefs who partner with fishers to guarantee quality, freshness and sustainability. Enjoy seafood dishes such as sockeye salmon baked on a brine-soaked cedar plank, Pacific halibut fish 'n' chips or succulent black cod.
A year-round supply of shellfish from a thriving and sustainable aquaculture industry means fresh oysters, clams and mussels from areas like Clayoquot Sound, Fanny Bay and Cortez Island. Spot prawns, dungeness crab and sweet sidestripe shrimp are other popular regional items.
Vancouver Island's colourful British heritage is celebrated daily with traditional afternoon tea – sip tea from china cups and saucers and nibble on finger sandwiches, scones with cream and other delights. In Victoria, indulge in tea overlooking the Inner Harbour at the Fairmont Empress' sumptuous Afternoon Tea or amongst the blooms at Butchart Gardens. Cozy up at the White Heather Tea Room or the James Bay Tea Room and Restaurant, complete with British Royalty memorabilia on the walls. Point Ellice House, a fully restored Victorian home, is a fitting setting for celebrating this delicious tradition.
In Comox, take tea at the historic Filberg Heritage Lodge, or, at the Milner Gardens and Woodland near Qualicum Beach, admire views of gardens, ocean and mountains while enjoying tea in the 1931 Milner House.
Tofino hosts the popular Clayoquot Oyster Festival in November, while June sees chefs, food producers and wineries gather together for the Tofino Food and Wine Festival.
In Comox, the annual BC Shellfish Festival draws top chefs to share tips and highlight local seafood. Deliciously prepared and creatively displayed seafood tastings feature oysters, salmon, scallops, geoducks, and prawns, and are often paired with award-winning Vancouver Island wines.
Tour the Cowichan Valley and savour food from organic farms and artisan food producers while sipping award-winning wines at the Cowichan Wine and Culinary Festival.

BERLIN (AP) — Deutsche Bank AG co-chief executive Juergen Fitschen has acknowledged calling a senior German politician following a raid at the bank's offices last week, and apologized in a newspaper interview printed Wednesday if the move had left the wrong impression.
Fitschen told the daily Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung he wanted to "expressly apologize" if people thought he tried to exert political influence on a legal case.
"I wanted to express my deep dismay about the impression that the incident (the raid) made abroad," the 64-year-old said of his call to Hesse state governor Volker Bouffier, noting that pictures of the raid were published around the world.
Some 500 police officers and prosecutors swooped on Deutsche Bank offices and private properties in Frankfurt, Berlin and Duesseldorf a week ago.
Fitschen told the paper he respected the independence of the legal process and insisted that the bank was cooperating with authorities in their investigation of suspected tax evasion, money laundering and attempted obstruction of justice. The bank confirmed his comments.
Deutsche Bank said the investigation began in spring 2010 and focuses on "a limited number of individuals" under suspicion of fraud connected with value-added tax in the trading of carbon emission certificates. Fitschen and chief finance officer Stefan Krause are among 25 people being investigated, the bank said.
The raid was one of a series of legal blows to Deutsche Bank in recent days.
Last week the bank lost a civil case brought by the heirs of German media mogul Leo Kirch. A Munich court agreed Friday with Kirch's heirs that Deutsche Bank had contributed to the 2002 bankruptcy of the Kirch Media group. The bank could be ordered to pay several hundred million euros (dollars) in compensation.
In a related case, a Frankfurt court has nixed decisions taken at Deutsche Bank's annual general meeting in May. The court ruled Tuesday that a lawyer for Kirch wasn't accorded the right to speak at the meeting, in breach of shareholder rights.
Both rulings can be appealed.

Purchasing a home with a VA loan in New Hampshire
If you are a veteran or active duty service member and a resident of the state of New Hampshire, the first step is to determine if you are eligible for VA home loan benefits. To determine your eligibility please visit our VA eligibility page. If you have served in the military and received an honorable discharge, you will likely be eligible to buy a home using your VA loan benefits.
New Hampshire veterans can take advantage of no-money-down loans or 100% financing and may be eligible for special benefits ranging from:
- Property Tax Relief (for disabled veterans)
- Debt Counseling Services
- Special VA Debt Consolidation Loan Options
- Energy Efficient Improvement Loan Options
Already own a home and need to refinance?
If you are a New Hampshire veteran homeowner, lowvarates.com can help you save money whether you are currently in a VA loan or not. New Hampshire veterans that currently have a VA home loan are eligible for a VA streamline refinance. If you live in New Hampshire but don't have a VA loan, our VA loan specialists may be able to help you refinance into a new VA mortgage. LowVARates can also help you determine the New Hampshire VA loan limits too.
Other New Hampshire VA loan information that you may find useful.
Statistics show that few Veterans in New Hampshire have taken full advantage of the VA programs and benefits made available to them. Some of the benefits available to veterans in New Hampshire include:
New Hampshire veterans can finance the VA funding fee on both purchase and refinance loans. The VA Funding fee helps to fund the Veteran's Affairs Home Loan Guarantee program, without which many veterans throughout the country would be unable to realize the dream of homeownership. However, New Hampshire veterans have the ability to finance this fee, or (in some cases) have it waived altogether.
If you are a veteran living in or moving to New Hampshire, then you can borrow up to the full amount of your home's value. Unlike most loan options available to non-veterans, New Hampshire veterans are able to borrow more than the full purchase price of the home and can refinance up to the entire home's appraised value.
New Hampshire veterans are protected by loan guidelines that restrict the kinds of fees that can be assesed to them on a home loan. The non -allowable fees include: Underwriting fees, document prep fees, processing fees, escrow or admin fees. Call a lowvarates representative today to deterimine the full list of fees from which you may be exempt.

Facebook chat is too clogged to talk about my game there, so thread time!
After being bored to death in DnD(Doesn't even matter what edition, it's the DM), I have decided to come up with my fresh and original system, inspired by such works such as Fallout, Mad Max, Mein Kampf, and Brikwars. The basic premise is an Earth like world destroyed in a war between the Human nations and the third party Orkish Empire(which are smart orks, not dumby orks). The advantage of this is to put players in a world they really don't know the history of. In Fallout, NPCs could say "history" we the players know is false. In the RPG, the players are about as clueless as the characters. Old Man Jenkins could talk about pseudo-Hitler as if he were a God, and we wouldn't know the difference
The campaign is set in a region seperated by a large river. On this river lies what was before the war a small city(think 200,000 max) that is now a hub of civilization. For whatever reason, it was spared from most of the destruction(later found to be the result of a long sabotage campaign). Two main factions wish to claim the city for their empire, one being the NCR knock-offs, the other being the Kingdom. The Kingdom feels society was destroyed because of faults in democracy, so they return to an older time. Their 'suits of armour" are really power suits without the power. The reigning King is dying, and the PCs have to find a solution to the power struggle by either supporting the heirs, supporting the rival family, or taking the throne for themselves.
One of the things I'm trying to stress is disunity. I feel it would be more fun if the PCs choose different factions to support. Wouldn't it be great leading a charge into the urban jungle when your former team mate pops out leading his own patrol?
Anyway, this is just the tip of the iceberg, feel free to suggest anything.

Rudy Gay scored eight of his 22 points over the final six minutes, Isaiah Thomas added 21 points and matched his career high with 12 assists, and the Sacramento Kings beat the Boston Celtics 105-98 on Saturday night.
DeMarcus Cousins had 13 points, while Derrick Williams and Carl Landry added 10 points apiece off the bench for Sacramento. The Kings never trailed and limited the Celtics to one basket over the final 7 1/2 minutes after Boston tied the game midway through the fourth quarter.
Jeff Green scored 29 on 7-of-25 shooting for the Celtics, who played without Rajon Rondo and Jared Sullinger.
Without two of their main scorers, Boston struggled offensively and looked out of sync most of the night.

If Thursday's drop confirms Wednesday's trend change signal… then does that preclude Friday from rallying? No, it just limits the extent of what would be only a corrective bounce that refuels the decline. Recovering too much too quickly could still invalidate the trend change.
Pattern points… (Setups and technicals)
Did Thursday afternoon's bounce already relieve pent-up buying pressure that might have sponsored a more durable recovery Friday? It originated from 1495.00 when the bias environment started lapsing at 2:30 and recovered back to the morning's 1504.25 first sell signal. It was retraced down to 1499.00.
1499.00 measured 61.8% of the 1495.00-1504.25 bounce, a healthy retracement that would have been bearish if broken. But retracing that much of the bounce signaled the pent-up buying pressure was already done. Recovering Friday back above Thursday's highs would require new sponsorship to gap up above 1511.00.
Meanwhile, Wednesday's trend change signal was confirmed by closing again under 1511.50 Thursday. Invalidating it at this stage requires gapping up Friday above 1517.50 to serve by proxy as if Wednesday's close had recovered 1511.50. Otherwise, the signal's minimum objective is one more lower close, if not a retracement back to the last relative low (under 1400.00).
What's Next… (Outlook and opportunities)
If Friday's open doesn't gap up enough to reject Thursday's sellers, then be on guard for selling pressure from longs that were planning to exit in the afternoon. The scent of another downday, and only hours remaining in the week, could entice sellers that wouldn't have acted otherwise. The vicious circle of combining the artificial selling pressure with the morning's accelerated sellers could be very productive. The weekend's impending illiquidity cuts both ways, and gapping up enough Friday's to reject Thursday's sellers could extend sharply higher intraday.
Look for at least one update overnight or ahead of the Morning Market Tour… My thoughts on the day's econ calendar are linked here.

Bucks beat Suns 108-99 in Boylan's first game
Submitted: 01/08/2013
- Brandon Jennings scored 29 points and the Milwaukee Bucks gave Jim Boylan a win in his first game as coach with a 108-99 victory over the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday night. The Bucks parted ways with coach Scott Skiles on Monday in what was called a mutual decision, and the Bucks tapped Skiles' top assistant Boylan as a replacement. Milwaukee's new head coach said before the game his top priority would be to get the Bucks playing well again after losing four consecutive games. The Suns were a perfect opponent, playing poorly in the last few weeks with nine losses in the last 10 games overall to go with a nine-game losing streak on the road. Goran Dragic scored 21 points and Jared Dudley added 18 for Phoenix.

-Skinny jeans (ours are from Gap)
-1/4-yard crushed velvet fabric
-Letter-sized piece of construction paper
-Embroidery floss
-Permanent marker
-Sewing pins and sewing needle
-Iron and ironing board
Fold the construction paper in half, so the short sides meet. Press your finger along the fold to crease.
Place the folded paper over the knee of one of the legs in the spot you want to create your patch. You may want to try on your jeans and mark the spot with a piece of tape or a pin before this step. Fold the paper, so that the edge meets the side seam of the jeans and crease.
Without moving the paper, repeat on the other side of the knee, folding right along where the paper meets the side seam.
Unfold the paper, and carefully cut out your two shapes. They should be almost square with two slightly angled sides, depending on the shape and fit of your jeans.
Using your permanent marker, trace the outline of the paper shapes onto the back side of the velvet, leaving a bit of space between the two.
Cut out the fabric shapes, leaving about one half-inch of fabric outside the lines. (Don't cut on the lines!)
Using the heat setting specified for your fabric, fold the velvet over on the marker lines, and iron so the folds stay in place. Try to get your fold line to be as close to the marker line as possible. Repeat on four sides of each patch.
Place the velvet patch over one of the knees, and pin in place. Try to get the edges lined up with the side seams, and be careful not to pin through the back of the leg.
Repeat pinning on the other knee. Line the legs of your jeans side by side to check that the patches are in the same spot on each leg.
Thread your needle with 2-3 feet of embroidery floss, and knot the end with a 2-inch tail. Start the first stitch going in toward the patch. Pull the yarn through, then tuck the tail under the patch so it will be hidden.
Continue stitching around the patch. Each stitch should go under the fabric from the outside, then up through the patch close to the seam. Pull through and repeat, so your stitches are close together. This is called a "whip stitch"; it helps to pinch next to where you are sewing with your spare hand, to be sure you are not sewing through the back of the jeans.
When your embroidery floss runs out, loop it through itself to create a knot, tuck the tail under the patch to hide it, and begin with a new piece. When you have stitched all around the patch, tie a really good knot, sew two more stitches to hide the knot, and cut off the remaining floss. Repeat on the other leg.

President Barack Obama on Thursday nominated former federal prosecutor Mary Jo White to head the Securities and Exchange Commission, picking a tough enforcement hand who more recently has defended Wall Street figures.
White, the former U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York known for prosecuting terrorists and mob bosses, would become the third consecutive woman to hold the post.
Continue Reading Below
"We need to keep going after irresponsible behavior in the financial industry so that taxpayers don't pay the price. I am absolutely confident that Mary Jo has the experience and the resolve to tackle these complex issues and to protect the American people in a way that is smart and in a way that is fair," Obama said in announcing the nomination.
The pick quickly drew praise from both Wall Street and reform advocates who say White would ably steer the powerful agency that plays a key role in overseeing U.S. financial markets.
However, White does not have a deep securities policy background, and in her recent private practice work she represented major players in the financial crisis, including former Bank of America Corp Chief Executive Ken Lewis.
The president also renominated Richard Cordray to continue as head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the U.S. watchdog for consumer products such as mortgages and student loans.
New York's Charles Schumer, a Democrat who is part of the Senate leadership and sits on the powerful Senate Banking Committee, praised White's reputation as a tough-as-nails prosecutor and predicted she will "easily be confirmed."
A swift confirmation for White could help the SEC speed up its implementation of the dozens of unfinished rules required by the 2010 Dodd-Frank Wall Street reform law.
White would succeed current SEC Chairman Elisse Walter, a Democratic commissioner who took over in December after predecessor Mary Schapiro stepped down.
Schapiro's departure left the commission divided between two Democrats and two Republicans, and observers said the split could make it nearly impossible to complete controversial rules, such as the Volcker Rule, which bans banks from proprietary trading.
White, now a respected white-collar defense attorney with the law firm Debevoise and Plimpton, was the only woman in the 200-year history of the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York to serve in the top spot there.
She was in office from 1993 through to 2002, during a tumultuous time starting with the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center and then later, the infamous Sept. 11 attacks of 2001.
Under her watch, the U.S. Attorney's office won about 35 convictions of militant Muslims charged with plotting against Americans.
"I view her as an incredibly well-regarded lawyer who has spent a significant amount of time as a partner at Debevoise representing companies and individuals in high-profile securities related matters," said Cheryl Scarboro, the former head of the SEC's Foreign Corrupt Practices Act unit and now a partner with Simpson Thacher & Bartlett.
As a defense attorney, White has been involved in high-profile SEC and Justice Department cases.
She conducted an internal investigation into corruption at Siemens AG that resulted in a record settlement for the German engineering conglomerate. She also represented healthcare provider HCA Holdings Inc in an insider-trading investigation, according to her online biography.
She has also represented JPMorgan Chase & Co in major matters related to the financial crisis, as well as former Bank of America CEO Lewis over a civil lawsuit in connection with Bank of America's acquisition of Merrill Lynch.
It is unclear whether her defense of Wall Street clients could prove troublesome for her during the U.S. Senate confirmation process. But Wall Street champions and critics both had positive takes on White.
"I have met Mary Jo White, and anyone who knows her at all - extremely capable, competent, bright, tough, and a perfect choice," JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon said in an interview on Thursday with Fox Business News from Davos.
Neil Barofsky, who was hired as an assistant U.S. attorney by White in 2000 and went on to become the Special Inspector General for the Troubled Asset Relief Program, called Obama's pick an "inspired choice."
"I expect that she will be unfazed by the intimidation tactics of the usual suspects in Washington - be they antagonistic members of Congress, captured officials from other parts of government or those who so relentlessly push the agendas of the largest banks," Barofsky said.
Like Schapiro, White has previously been identified as a political independent. Unlike Schapiro, White has not worked as a Wall Street regulator.
However, White's husband, John White, served as the director of the SEC's Corporation Finance division, which oversees public company disclosures, from 2006 to 2008.
Known for a legendary work ethic and a fondness for beer and baseball, White also developed a reputation as a ferocious basketball player when in the U.S. Attorney's office, even though she stands around 5 feet tall.
Former SEC enforcement director William McLucas said it was an "excellent sign" that the White House could get someone of her caliber to take the position. "There is no one I know that works harder," McLucas said.
James Cox, a professor of law at Duke University who has served with White on various panels, said White will be a very different SEC chairman than Schapiro.
"Mary Schapiro was a politician," Cox said. Mary Jo White, by contrast, he said, will be more blunt and direct. "She can unpack somebody's argument really quickly."
As for Cordray, he has already faced some uphill battles with Republicans in Congress.
Cordray, a former Ohio attorney general, was appointed in January 2012 while Congress was in recess after Republicans who were wary of the CFPB's independence blocked his nomination.
The controversial appointment limited the amount of time Cordray could serve without going through a full confirmation process.
The CFPB has drawn criticism from Republicans and business groups, who say it is virtually unchecked and will hurt lending and put small banks out of business.
Asked whether the administration foresees any problems getting Cordray confirmed, White House spokesman Jay Carney said he did not expect any objections to him "on substance."
"He is absolutely the right person for the job," Carney said. He said earlier obstacles to Cordray's nomination had been based on "political considerations" from lawmakers who had opposed the creation of the financial protection board.
Some political observers, however, said Thursday that any fights to come will not be about Cordray personally, but about the overall structure of the CFPB itself.
"Issues larger than his handling of the bureau will probably dictate that," said Jason Rosenstock, the director of government relations at ML Strategies.
