WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Environmental Protection Agency's logic-based decision to uphold the Renewable Fuel Standard will protect America's energy security and maintain the industry's progress in commercializing advanced biofuels, the Biotechnology Industry Organization (BIO) said today. BIO previously submitted comments to the agency noting that any waiver of the RFS would certainly harm biofuel producers and biotechnology companies across the United States.
Brent Erickson, executive vice president of BIO's Industrial & Environmental Section, stated:
"EPA has made the right decision and we thank them for making a careful and fully considered analysis. Earlier studies by researchers at Purdue University, Iowa State University and the University of Missouri's Food and Agricultural Policy Research Institute showed clearly that a waiver of the RFS would not undo the economic harm caused by the drought.
"However, a waiver of the RFS could have undercut ongoing investments in advanced biofuels. Renewable fuels are a significant contributor to our nation's economy and energy security, creating jobs and directly reducing reliance on imported oil. This decision allows BIO member companies to continue to deliver innovative technologies to the market to expand our domestic production of biofuels, including fuels from agricultural residues, municipal solid waste, algae and purpose grown energy crops."
BIO member companies also welcomed the decision.
"We are pleased with the EPA ruling. The agency continues to demonstrate a commitment to U.S. production of renewable fuels to reduce our dependence on imported oil. The careful analyses performed by USEPA and USDA show that the drought, and not the Renewable Fuel Standard, is the cause of the temporary situation," said Jan Koninckx, Global Business Director for Biofuels at DuPont. "While we empathize with both livestock and ethanol producers that are struggling with higher corn prices, we are also confident that farmers will continue to expand corn production, and DuPont and others will continue to commercialize advanced biofuels - to serve both our feed and renewable fuels needs."
"With so much at stake for the economy, we need the Renewable Fuel Standard: Its stability has generated 400,000 careers, billions in private investment – and domestic, renewable fuel for America. Novozymes and other industry leaders have invested more than a billion dollars to commercialize advanced biofuels from agricultural waste, household trash and more, in large part because of the RFS," added Adam Monroe, President, Novozymes North America. "We appreciate the Administration's decision to deny the waiver request based on the data – and are pleased the United States will continue becoming less dependent on foreign oil with domestic, renewable fuel for its cars and trucks."
"The EPA today made a sound decision in denying a waiver of the Renewable Fuel Standard," said POET CEO Jeff Lautt. "As studies have shown, a waiver would have likely had little to no impact on commodities prices in the aftermath of the recent drought. This effort was nothing more than the latest attempt by renewable fuel opponents to undermine policy that has helped make America stronger. Today's decision means the Renewable Fuel Standard remains strong and stable policy, and our industry can move forward with greater confidence, continuing to invest in new technology to make biofuels production even more efficient and commercializing fuel production from cellulosic feedstocks such as crop residue and other plant material."

Concept Range Extender Trailer for Tesla Cars
Concept Range Extender Trailer for Tesla Cars
Just to bring you up to speed with what has been discussed so far...
Some S owner is missing the nose and front wheels of his car!
Is that an electrical storage or a gas generator your thinking of towing ?
I believe it has possibilities. Let's do a little CR Brainstorming here:
1) Can you make that generator compressed natural gas ? It's 25% cleaner. CR: incremental continuous
quality green improvement.
2) Let's create some other uses for the "Tow Behind Generator, e.g. where do carowners go and what do they
do on long trips- beach, hiking/camping, tailgate cooking at NASCAR/football, kayaking.--Always good to
have extra plugs, hookups for stoves for camping etc. CR: break stovepipe thinking / anticipate random
opportunities for enjoyment.
3). Big storm coming up, be good to have a backup generator for the house, bet they sell out generators in the
northeast.CR: unintended benefits.
4). How about solving some other problems with the glass top Model S & Falcon Wing Model X, with the "Tow
Behind Generator" e.g. I read comments there's no ability to put kayaks, ski's, bikes, or luggage racks on
the roof.
So let's design some extra space for all the stuff in the "Tow Behind Generator", something like a smallish
Compressed natural gas or propane tanks in the roof. That will make roof round and the interior floor
nice and flat. Now make the tow box big enough to carry some of that stuff & a cng compressor inside., but
not too big to keep the weight down.
CR: maximize desirability by fullfilling a customer need.
5). Now we can expand the the market by a factor of at least 100 or more,have great advertising by putting the
tesla name etc on the outside, and sell to BOTH gas car owners as well as EV's. Sell on website, Amazon,
EBay etc.--Now that's the cheap version, say keep it to $5,000 plus tax. CR: maximize the market &
possible profitability/margin.
Now for the expensive version of the TBG...why not make a hybrid TBG version, a Tow Behind Generator that has both a CNG compressor & electric battery storage? CR: reinvent the product/converge two products.
1). Make the system even cleaner by adding lithium storage batteries to serve also as the floor, have various
capacity sizes, the biggest size able to haul a motorcycle or ATV and handle a supercharcher or charge
both the car & charger at home or on the road with regular EV plugs on the road. Save the CNG generator
for when the TBG charge is low. CR: creatively merging two previously unrelated items.
2). Add Solar City designed solar panels on the roof. Great advertising for Elon's solar company. Plus it adds
electric charge while driving. CR: create synergy with partner company.
3). Add electricity producing regenerative braking to the wheels. CR design efficiency.
4). Here's a farout idea, ever see an electric hand operated forklift or pallet jack ? Don't just have regen wheels,
but wheels that turn backwards with control buttons on the front of the hitch connection, designed to act like
an electric hand pallet jack after it is disconnected from the car. Now you can move your cargo around,
have a stove, cords, stuff where you need it powered by the wheels. CR: add surprise/cool value.
Have the roof removable and now you essentially have a pallet jack for moving bulky stuff around, great for
around the house. CR: add surprise/cool value.
5) Have several small parts of the battery detachable and easy to carry for places like the beach when you
want just a relatively small amount of power for a small TV or keep gadgets charged. CR: unintended uses.
6). Hire Industrial ecologist to write articles & a peer reviewed paper to make sure the whole manufacturing
process is clean, green & not mean to the environment, include in manufactures of all the different
components. CR: anticipate problems...
7). Design whole system for fast manufacturing. CR: design out problems through continuous manufacturing
efficiency improvement.
8) Finally make as many items optional as possible, mix and match, even have electric only, if that's what you
want, sell to the masses, get free advertising, list everywhere, plus jazz up the company website store.
CR: Total Quality Experience.
The more expensive version, about $ 15,000. more or less depending on which options you choose.
I for one would love the idea BUT we have to get past the firmware that will not allow you to even start the car if charging. If someone can work out that detail I can complete the rest of the trailer.
Charging while driving is not distinguishable from the charger carrying part or all of the load. This in effect means driving from the charger using the battery as backup. If the charger is fossil fuel powered this is no different from having a 2-part hybrid.
If you secretly want to transform TM's BEV into a hybrid, this is one way to do it.
"The purpose of this is to make traveling cross country no harder than in a normal car."
Not sure how clean propane is, but how about Blue Rhino propane as an option ? They already have a tank exchange program, even available at Walmart. See the Blue Rhino phone app here:
In addition , there are tri-fuel generators, that way the consumer can choose their fuel based on how green their desire is. See generators here & options for tri-fuel generators.
Now with a little planning, you can be greener. Or not be and pull into any gas station.
I think it's important to keep the car as green as possible because of anti-green critics and politics.

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - A 43-year-old man was arrested Monday in a rape that occurred in 2002, Daytona Beach police said.
Carl Perdew was arrested in Ormond Beach on charges of sexual battery and robbery.
According to Daytona Beach police, a woman reported that she was raped and robbed in September 2002. DNA from the sexual battery was submitted to the Combined DNA Index System, known as CODIS, police said.
In August 2012, Perdew was arrested on a charge of solicitation of prostitution, and because of an ongoing investigation into a serial murderer, a DNA swab was obtained from Perdew and entered into the CODIS, according to police. Police said the investigation was ongoing since 2006 when the city's serial murders began.
Police said In November 2012, a positive hit was confirmed on Perdew in reference to the reported rape.
"He knew what he did in 2002, he probably never would have thought in a million years there would have ever been DNA," said Daytona Beach Police Chief Mike Chitwood.
A warrant was obtained for Perdew on Friday, and he was arrested by Ormond Beach police on Monday.
Perdew's DNA did not match the DNA found in the serial murderers so he's not a suspect in that case.

Great win. The game against Miami is gonna be much bigger than usual with this win streak and the Playoffs being near.
Great win. The game against Miami is gonna be much bigger than usual with this win streak and the Playoffs being near.
Sig made by Sons of Thunder
Im still wondering about Woody starting White for several games .. then shift White to the doghouse DNP line.
Im also wondering why Woody played small-ball lineups throughout the season .. it wasnt do to injuries.
Aaiite .. a satisfactory win to keep our streak going to 8 games,
before bumbing heads with the champion Heats.
Melo played an outstanding role by giving us 24 pts, 10 rbs, in just 27 minutes (GREAT).
The rest of our team took advantage of the no-center, no-PF, Boston Celtics in MSG by outscoring the Celtics in all 4 quarters of the game 108-89 Knicks WIN.
Can the nut hugging Celtic media stop making excuses. They act as if the Celtics are the only team in the entire NBA missing key players due to injury. Knicks are only missing the best defensive big men in the entire NBA....
FFS we're better than the Celtics...PERIOD!!!!!
Beat their ass even with KG and Rando earlier in the season so please nut hugging Celtic media STFU and grasp the Celtics era of dominance is over. Only thing that keeps them in games these days is refs who allow likes of Bradley and Green to go all Dan Majerle on opposing guards.
Dont forget this team is playing without Sheed 1/2 season which is big loss that guy can compete with many strong guys just look @ K-mart what he brought to Knicks . Celtics have better experience in playoffs that half roster of Knicks

The presidential campaign, hitherto a plod through a torrent of words tedious beyond words, began to dance in Denver.
There a masterfully prepared Mitt Romney completed a trifecta of tasks and unveiled an issue that, because it illustrates contemporary liberalism's repellent essence, can constitute his campaign's closing argument.
Barack Obama, knight of the peevish countenance, illustrated William F. Buckley's axiom that liberals who celebrate tolerance of other views always seem amazed that there are other views. Obama, who is not known as a martyr to the work ethic and who might use a teleprompter when ordering lunch, seemed uncomfortable with a format that allowed fluidity of discourse.
His vanity — remember, he gave Queen Elizabeth an iPod whose menu included two of his speeches — perhaps blinds him to the need to prepare.
Romney was lucky that the first debate concerned the economy, a subject that to him is a hanging curve ball and to Obama is a dancing knuckleball. The topic helped Romney accomplish three things.
First, recent polls showing him losing were on the verge of becoming self-fulfilling prophesies by discouraging his supporters and inspiriting Obama's. Romney, unleashing his inner wonk about economic matters, probably stabilized public opinion and prevented a rush to judgment as early voting accelerates.
Second, Romney needed to be seen tutoring Obama on such elementary distinctions as that between reducing tax rates (while simultaneously reducing, by means testing, the value of deductions) and reducing revenues, revenues being a function of economic growth, which the rate reductions could stimulate.
Third, Romney needed to rivet the attention of the electorate, in which self-identified conservatives outnumber self-identified liberals two-to-one, on this choice:
America can be the society it was when it had a spring in its step, a society in which markets — the voluntary collaboration of creative individuals — allocate opportunity. Or America can remain today's depressed and anxious society of unprecedented stagnation in the fourth year of a faux recovery — a bleak society in which government incompetently allocates resources in pursuit of its perishable certitudes and on behalf of the politically connected.
Late in the debate, when Romney for a third time referred to Obamacare's creation of "an unelected board, appointed board, who are going to decide what kind of 'medical' treatment you ought to have," Obama said, "No, it isn't."
Oh? The Independent Payment Advisory Board perfectly illustrates liberalism's itch to remove choices from individuals, and from their elected representatives, and to repose the power to choose in supposed experts liberated from democratic accountability.
Before Denver, Obama's campaign was a promise that he will stay the course he defends despite evidence of its futility. After Denver, Romney's campaign should advertise that promise.

Discussion in 'Star Trek: The Next Generation' started by Jiraiya, May 9, 2009.
Re: deleted scenes
At least we get a pizza slicer.
Re: deleted scenes
Does anyone know...
I've heard time and again, the big problem with converting TNG to HD is that it was rendered on VHS video tape.
But in some recent article on it, someone from CBS said that the special effects shots had been rendered in VHS. He did not say the whole series; just the FX.
Which is the case?
If it's the FX, then shouldn't it be much easier? The with people effects will still be a bit of a snag, but totally throwing away the space-based ones for new CGI stuff would solve half that issue, wouldn't it?
TNG was shot on film but edited on video tape.
THAT is the biggest challenge of a 'remastered' TNG: The whole show will have to be re-edited on top of redoing all the VFX-composites.
Yep. And you have a ton of episodes. And how much of that film is lost or damaged?
But... if you want a hi-res effect for TNG, the solution is easy.
First, get the series on a DVD transfer. Second, watch the show on the smallest size high-definition screen you can find. The picture will be tiny, but incredibly clear. LOL
This is in the category of 'nice to have'... but sounds like its just not going to happen. The economics are awful (lots of cost, fewer buyers) than TOS, and the added steps sounds significant. And the DVDs stand up quite well, all said and done.
I don't really care if they "enhance" it. And for remastering I'd settle for cleaning it up a bit.
My only problem with the DVDs is how pixelated everything looks--especially the nacelles/engines and the credit fonts. Sometimes the credits are unreadable.
I agree. You could certainly clean up the fonts and enhance the image a little.
Indeed, you might redo some dodgy effects shots and then add in a little grain and noise to make it match the rest of the shots. You could redo all the exterior shots and just fuzz them up enough to have the viewer believe they were watching the same show.
I say go big or go home. Paramount can afford, and it is in their best interest going forward to re-edit these eps from the original negatives, and create new FX. I would suggest, however, and Mr. Okuda can tell me if I'm wrong, but they should not try to do it on a weekly schedule to meet syndication needs. Perhaps they could do Season One first, taking their time and syndicate that whole season, while they do the following seasons. This would give them more lead-time to get it right without the time pressures the TOS-R crew were under.
I'm with those who would buy a "best of" set of 10-20 episodes. Do we REALLY need a re-editted and remastered "Shades of Gray"? Hell no. But I'd brave hell and high water for a hi-def "Yesterday's Enterprise" with CGI models of two Enterprises tangling with a bunch of Klingon warships.
Exactly. If they remastered...
1. Yesterday's Enterprise
2. BoBW Pt. 1
3. BoBW Pt.2
4. Redemption, Pt. 1
5. Redemption, Pt. 2
6. Unification, Pt. 1
7. Unification, Pt. 2
8. The Pegasus
9. All Good Things Pt.1
10. All Good Things Pt. 2...
I'd buy them in a heartbeat. I could care less about anything else being remastered.
If they are going to do it, I'd rather wait until they can afford to do it properly. To have to start from scratch in the editing suite is the biggest cost.
If they wait a decade then I think it would be worth it. Heck, by then they could remaster it in 3D with all new effects for the cost that it would cost to do the remastering alone at today's economics.
I think it's too soon. But it would be great if we could wait and have it done properly, and amazingly.
The longer you wait, the more the film degrades, the harder it is to track down errant film canisters, and so on.
If they were to do it right, I'd say they'd need to start the archival and transfer process of the original film footage ASAP.
It would take a while to simply assemble the footage, organize it, and index it. The next step of reproducing the TV edits from all the film would take a ton of time by itself.
Scanning the footage now or not, recompiling it now won't grant as viable return that's all.
What would be the point of "cleaning up" videotape footage.
The picture can't get much better unless they go back to the filmed footage. The best the series could ever look is "Trials and Tribble-ations" from the TOS blu-ray; and it doesn't look all that much better from the DVD version. Most people wouldn';t even notice a difference in the picture quality. THat would hardly justify spending any kind of money on this project just for people to say, "Yeah... I think it looks a little clearer."
You have to go back to the film. That means reediting every episode all over again.
Except then you're missing the whole point of the project, which is to create HD versions of TNG. The new FX are, unfortunately, necessary to accomplish that goal, but the new FX themselves aren't the purpose of the project.
It's a shame they couldn't actually do a HD version of that one episode.
I don't think that would be practical. Why transfer the tons of film that wasn't used to get the, presumably, much fewer shots that actually were used in the episodes? I would think they'd want to find the right shots first, then transfer them, then edit them.
THey did the next best thing -- lied on the package and said it was in HD.
Depends on how you define "new FX" - transporter/replicator effects, phaser shots and the like would need to be redone from scratch, true; but all the model shots were done on 35mm, and could be recomposited/reedited with the rest of the footage if the will existed* - they'll need to recomposite every viewscreen & monitor shot anyway.
[*The new CGI ship shots for TOS were required because they used the film episode masters, with umpteen layers/generations of compositing artefacts visible. Since equivalent masters don't exist for TNG, using the original model shots is peversely more achievable despite the extra work.]
Look...the CBS guy says it WILL happen...its a question of overcoming a few problems. I can see WHY it will happen...STNG is its most popular ST "product"...they want to release it on HD as much as they did TOS, if not more so...they are going to make it happen. This is not Space 1999 or The Invaders...it was a BIG show with high ratings. They have the crew that worked on it more or less intact to supervise if necessary. HD formats, primarily Blue-ray are obviously the future and they will want to continue the ongoing popularity and moneymaking of ST. Also, the FX will probably be "state-of-art", and will be great quality, as opposed to the holding back on TOS-R to make it appear to date from the 60s. I think they'll be looking to exercise some of the top capabilities of CBS Digital.

The school board is scheduled to consider an appeal to the firing of Russellville High School cross country coach Jerry Thompson — a meeting Thompson's lawyer said was requested to be open to the public.
The Russellville School Board announced the time-change early Tuesday afternoon and said the purpose of the meeting is to consider a personnel matter, but did not release other details.
Little Rock-based attorney Greg Alagood said in an interview last week that Thompson, who served with the school district for over 30 years before receiving a recommendation to terminate his contract this fall, made the request to make the hearing with the school board open to the public.
Alagood said because Thompson declined to terminate his contract, he has since been suspended with pay until the school board hearing to consider his appeal. Alagood said Thompson received the recommendation in late September.
A Facebook page entitled "Thanks Coach Jerry Thompson," which was created around the time of the coach's recommended termination, had collected over 900 "likes" by Tuesday and was filled with comments from supporters, over 70 of whom who expressed plans to attend the hearing Wednesday.
Alagood declined to comment on allegations made leading to Thompson's recommended termination. School officials also declined comment, stating they're not allowed to discuss personnel matters.
The meeting will be at the Administration Building at 220 W. 10th St.

Replacing a Workhorse
9 comments post a comment
Agilent Technologies is phasing out the popular 34401A multimeters. Will the 34461A be a worthy successor?
On June 17, Agilent Technologies announced a replacement for its longtime workhorse multimeter, the 34401A -- the 34461A.
Introduced in 1992, before HP split off Agilent, the HP 34401A and then the Agilent 34401A can be found on many an engineer's bench and in many an automated test system. Many, if not most, of those HP models are still in use today.
The 34461A ($1,095) is designed to replace the 34401A. In fact, you can even find a comparison page that you can use to compare the two meters.
"What? You mean my workhorse multimeter is being discontinued?" That's what I thought when I read the press release, so I asked product manager Tami Pippert. Here's what she had to say:
We are not announcing 34401A discontinuance at this time, but we do plan to do so in the future -- no date has been set at this time. When we do announce 34401A discontinuance, we will provide advance notice to allow our customers time to make final purchases. We are broadly communicating the 34461A as the 34401A replacement for those customers who want to start evaluation processes as early as possible.
Agilent's 34461A
Agilent claims that the 34461A has measurement specifications that are equal to or better than those of the 34401A. But people who calibrate test equipment know that instruments with a calibration history add confidence because they know how the instrument should perform between calibrations. Given the long history of the 34401A, Agilent's engineers surely performed extensive testing on the 34461A. But is there any substitute for calibration history? I'll let you decide. Still, I had to ask Pippert about how Agilent handled the history situation. Here is her reply:
The 34401A is legendary for its reliability, both electrically and mechanically. In developing the new meters, the testing by the design team was extensive -- shock, vibration, extreme environmental conditions, and long-term testing of component reliability. Given that we closely track performance of our products and have all the info on when there are any problems, field service history, repairs, etc., having a reference product like the 34401A with 20+ years in the field is to our advantage in developing the 34461A.
We have the history of all the various components, circuits, and sub-systems, and where possible, we leveraged that design forward. That is one of the true benefits of having many of the same folks on both the original 34401A team as the Truevolt team -- to have that design history and knowledge front and center in everything they do.
The 34461A data sheet provides measurement uncertainty data for periods up to two years. Has Agilent been testing the meters for two years to prove that specification, or is there a statistical method for extrapolating that data? I'd like to hear from Agilent on how the two-year data was achieved.
Do you have a 34401A? Will you order several more when Agilent issues a call for last orders? Will you evaluate a 33461A? If so, what tests will you perform before deciding what to do?

OK, not looking to start another discussion on who will eventually be the next head coach of the Raptors or anything like that, but more about coaching philosophies.
I have always been skeptical of Colangelo's decision in firing Sam and replacing him with his assistant in Triano, but I'm just curious to know what you guys think on how exactly was it going to change the coaching philosophies of this team moving forward.
It appears to be nothing really has changed all that much. We still depend on the three point shot (excluding Bosh this season), we're still horribly porous on defence, we tend to shy away from the physical game and intensity and emotion still continues to lack. Unless you count Jose's waving of this arms to pump up the crowd. There are some other I guess idiosyncrasies if I can call them that, which are very much still instilled with this team too.
At the time do you not think moving forward that the best idea for this organization was to clean house and terminate the entire staff instead of just releasing the leader at the time? Or, do some of you think BC still made the right decision looking back now?

text: Two weeks ago I traded my 07 vstar 650 for a NEW 09 zuma 125. Most of my biker buddies thought I was crazy but the truth is I just did not ride the vstar and having only 4000 miles in 5 years I thought it was time for a change. I rode in on the vstar and rode out on the zuma, grinning like a idot the whole way home. I'm not new to scooters I've owned two zuma 50's, honda ruckus, honda metro, and a cheap a$$ china made gy6. This is by far my favorite scooter and in my top three favorite bikes. I got my buddies together for a little ride that weekend. Our "gang" consisted of my z125, a zuma 50, a chinese 4t 50( with Leo vince exhaust) and a hammered 2000 yamaha razz. The ride started simple enough with back roads outside murray ky but then after some shit talk about how far we would ride we ended up in Paducah ky. The ride began at 5:00pm and ended at 2:30am I was able to rack up 213 miles that day. Even with the Razz limiting the group speed to 30mph and the rock hard z125 seat, it was one of the best rides I had ever been on! before the adventure At the flood wall in Paducah The little Razz the could! 2 hours before this pic it was on it's side under a barn! Now the Razz have been replaced with a Kymco super 9 LC so I'm sure to have more rides and pics soon! Here are a few pics down the road from my house at the Kenlake state park. The best thing this bike has done for me is renew my love for riding and for that I thank you little Zuma!

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2018
Norman Conquest of England in 1066, the name Feer was first found in Britina. It was a name for a sociable person. It derives from the Middle English feare, which means comrade, or companion.
Feer Early Origins
family seat from very early times and were granted lands by Duke William of Normandy, their liege Lord, for their distinguished assistance at the Battle of Hastings in 1066 A.D. They were originally descended from Vere from Manche in the arrondisement of Coutances in Normandy, and Aubrey de Vere was an undertenant in Kensington, Middlesex, and two places in Northampton.

Feer Spelling Variations
Feer Spelling Variations
It is only in the last few hundred years that the English language has been standardized. For that reason, Anglo-Norman surnames like Feer are characterized by many spelling variations. Scribes and monks in the Middle Ages spelled names they sounded, so it is common to find several variations that refer to a single person. As the English language changed and incorporated elements of other European languages such as Norman French and Latin, even literate people regularly changed the spelling of their names. The variations of the name Feer include Fear, Fere and others.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
Faced with the chaos present in England at that time, many English families looked towards the open frontiers of the New World with its opportunities to escape oppression and starvation. People migrated to North America, as well as Australia and Ireland in droves, paying exorbitant rates for passages in cramped, unsafe ships. Many of the settlers did not make the long passage alive, but those who did see the shores of North America were welcomed with great opportunity. Many of the families that came from England went on to make essential contributions to the emerging nations of Canada and the United States. Some of the first immigrants to cross the Atlantic and come to North America carried the name Feer, or a variant listed above:

Clients of Gastineau Guiding enjoy a view of Mendenhall Glacier. More than 400,000 out-of-state visitors each year take in the beauty of Mendenhall Glacier making it the most visited site in Alaska's Tongass National Forest) Southeast Alaska: Melting Funds for Tongass Tourism Gem By Laurie Cooper It's go time in the Tongass National Forest as Alaska's southern panhandle gears up for the 2014 travel season. Drawn by the region's rich cultural and natural resources, nearly 70 percent of all Alaska visitors this summer will travel to Southeast Alaska making it the state's top summer destination for tourists. Beginning in late April, residents will once again share their town and its backyard wilderness with just over 1 million visitors. bear under meadow platform 1c.jpg (Photo Credit: U.S. Forest Service. The Forest Service reports that reduced funding has diminished their ability to manage people around bears and provide for safe wildlife viewing interactions for visitors.) A must-see for most tourists is the Mendenhall Glacier, a natural wonder just 14 miles from downtown Juneau. As one of the most road-accessible glaciers in the world, Mendenhall tops the list as the most visited Forest Service site in Alaska. Surrounded by lush rainforest and towering mountains, the Mendenhall Glacier is part of a 5,800 acre recreational area managed by the Forest Service as part of the 17-million-acre Tongass National Forest. "The Mendenhall offers world-class opportunities for our guests. They can experience a wide range of recreational activities within a dynamic and evolving landscape," said Jeremy Gieser, director of tours and marketing with Gastineau Guiding Company, one 21 tourism companies permitted to operate at the glacier. Unlike most recreation sites across the Tongass, most visitors will experience the Mendenhall Glacier via commercial tour operators like Gastineau Guiding Company. These companies rely on the Forest Service to maintain the recreational area while adapting to the evolving tourism market and visitor trends. But lately the Forest Service appears unable to keep pace and the Mendenhall is showing signs of wear and tear. In the past 15 years, the number of visitors to Mendenhall has doubled and the expectation is that this trend will continue. The Forest Service anticipates hosting just over 440,000 visitors this summer at the Mendenhall Glacier Visitor Center and Interpretative site. "The 2014 season looks to be strong," said Kirby Day, manager of port operations and passenger logistics in Alaska for Princess Cruises. "And with more cruise passengers comes additional visitation at Mendenhall and pressure on the outdated and aging public facilities including the visitor center, trails, restrooms, and parking/staging areas." The Forest Service acknowledges that burgeoning demand is outpacing the agency's available resources and its capacity to improve access, services and facilities at the glacier. John Neary, Mendenhall Glacier visitor center director, said the current year budget is just enough to "keep the doors open." Beyond covering essential operational costs, the Forest Service's budget for the Mendenhall is inadequate. The facility needs $800,000 in deferred maintenance for repairs to deteriorating rock walls, stairways and path systems, and roofing on structures; an estimated $8,000,000 for additional restrooms, bus and parking structures, trails and platforms for safe bear viewing, and restoration of salmon habitat; and $200,000 for programs and staffing to ensure safe bear viewing, adequate visitor management, and optimal interpretation. crowded host station c.jpg (Photo Credit: U.S. Forest Service. Crowded conditions at the entrance to the Mendenhall Glacier Visitor Center. Summer use at the visitor center surges when cruise ships dock in Juneau with daily visitation ranging from 1,000 to 4,000 visitors per day.) In recent years, Forest Service investment in the Mendenhall Glacier Visitor Center programs and facilities has plummeted. Between 2013 and 2014, funding allocated from congressional appropriations was cut in half from $200,000 to just over $100,000 covering only 10 percent of the annual operating and maintenance budget. With the drop in federal investment, the Forest Service has increasingly relied on revenue collected from fees paid by businesses and visitors to cover basic costs. These funds are meant to be used to enhance facilities and services in order to provide visitors with a quality experience. The decline of Forest Service investment in the Mendenhall Glacier Visitor Center parallels a sharp decrease in federal investment for recreation and visitor-related services across the Tongass. Since 2009, congressionally appropriated funding for Tongass recreation has dropped by nearly half. During the same general timeframe, Southeast Alaska's visitor industry employment has increased by seven percent and employment income in this sector has seen a ten percent increase. Southeast Alaska's Tongass National Forest is a bucket-list destination for world travelers and their trips help propel the region's economy. With 80 percent of the region's land base in the Tongass National Forest, the visitor industry depends upon the Forest Service to be a strong and effective partner in delivering world-class experiences to their clients. If the partnership is to thrive, the funding problem at Mendenhall Glacier and across the region needs to be fixed. Any solution must include increasing congressional appropriations for the Tongass recreation program as well as finding ways to leverage additional resources through new partnerships and alternative funding sources.

See, last Spring, during my Mom's illness and death, I was offline for a number of months. Upon my return, I noticed that someone had created a thread in the Hampur asking me to "come back". As I read through the thread, there was Jumbled's comment decrying the thread's intent as I was worthless and that my sole function in this community was to post "pornographic material" on JI which anyone could find on their own. (Odd that both Ray and Jumbled would take this tack, right? Or is it?)
First, I would argue that since joining JI in 2007, the great majority of my posts have contributed to various discussions related to the Jets, music, TV/film, and/or humor.
Second, this self-proclaimed "genius of JI" does not understand the word he likes to misuse, pornography. During my tenure here, I have never posted one pornographic image. None have depicted an explicit sexual act or even genital nudity. Zero.
But why would facts enter JumbledS hit's position in an argument when lies and slander are readily available and effortlessly foisted as genuine? Why confront a person with your vile poison when a churl like Jumbled can do it from the comfort of his malodorous warren seeking only to promulgate his narrow-minded, poorly constructed, and flawed agenda? Back in the days of WWII, folks would call such a quisling such as Jumbled a "yellow rat bastard".
In Jumbled's disoriented philosophy (flummoxing to even brilliant theologians and life-long politicos), images of women are always seen as prurient, never as beauty, art, or a natural component of wholesome sexual attraction.
I'm sure a casual walk-through at the Louvre would prompt a tersely worded note to the French government, or local religious entities, about the rampant "pornography (once again, his misuse of the word) on display and its corrupting impact on women and children who witness it. No doubt, upon viewing Michelangelo's David, he would brand the visionary Renaissance master as a "pornographer" whose only intent was to pollute society with graphic male nudity.
Finally, now that all this is out in the open, my hope is that JumbledS hitJest will finally confront, and eventually--through a protracted course of therapy--conquer, his demons related to sexual repression, morbid jealousy (often called "Othello Syndrome"), and crushing self-loathing. Although, to be honest, even if Carl Jung were alive and handling the arduous task, it will be a long road to eventually finally recognizing his failings as a human being and limited spiritual awakening with any hope of redemption in the afterlife (if one exists).
Oh, almost forgot. You never answered how you're able to post here with a new username after your old one, the aptly titled "FlushingJet, was banned. I know most of us can't just get banned, then show up spewing the same malice filled diatribes without missing a beat. Inside deal?

Goldberg is best known for depicting complicated gadgets that perform simple tasks in indirect, convoluted ways.
Janelle Miller, fifth-grade teacher, said she gave students the basic project criteria and let them work from there.
"The specifications for the project were that it must contain four of the six simple machines learned in class, the machine must pop a balloon, and it must stay within [a certain size]," she said. "Everything else was completely free rein."
The winning group — Kasey Larkin, Holden Easley, Leland "Cole" Bosley and Taylor Owens — presented its machine to the school board.
More than 100 fifth-graders divided into 28 groups completed the project. Miller chose one group to attend the school board meeting.
"This completely embodied the model I was looking for," Miller said of the group's machine. "They're the only group that showed a chain reaction of machines."
The challenge was designed to teach students lessons beyond just simple machines.
"They learned about teamwork," Miller said. "They learned how to develop alternate plans because nine times out of 10, your original plan doesn't work. They learned how building a 3-D machine from a sketch takes more than just an idea — it takes a plan and specific materials."
Miller said she got the idea while researching project-based learning for simple machines. Students watched several Goldberg machine videos to help come up with ideas.
"This was truly a 21st-century learning experience," Miller said. "The students loved it. It is definitely something I will do with more students in the future."
Easley, one of the students in the winning group, made a compilation video of all 28 groups popping their balloons with their machines, which was shown to the school board following his group's presentation.

Maybe we should set up a tent in the most dangerous area of Iraq; fill it with seats for our representatives, senators and president and make them govern with mortars exploding all around. Maybe if they were forced to do their jobs in a war-like atmosphere, they would actually do their jobs. Maybe then, they would put their political egos and alliances aside and align with our men and women in the battlefield.
The Senate passed legislation Thursday to fund war operations in Iraq and Afghanistan to the tune of about $90 million. The bill also included more than $30 million in domestic funding for various programs.
The legislation also laid out a plan to begin withdrawal in July if the newly-formed Iraqi government has a handle on violence and is well on its way to forming a governing body that can actually govern. The bill provides a secondary date for the initial withdrawal if Iraqi solidarity is not yet achieved in October.
The immediate problem that needed to be solved was funding our troops and their ongoing missions. Not wanting to approve just throwing money at an unpopular war and allowing Bush to have his way, the Democrats drafted this bill with strings.
We've witnessed a war of politicians in recent weeks as a Democrat-controlled congress and Republican administration continue to see the world with blinders on with no intentions of meeting in the middle.
On one hand, our military operations need funding. On the other hand, a firm strategy for bringing our men and women home needs to be designed and executed.
President Bush has shown no signs of wavering on his promise to veto this bill and he will.
In anticipation of the veto and knowing they don't have the votes required for an override, Democrats will draft another bill. It is yet to be seen what legislation will come from this chaos.
What can't be denied is we will editorialize and report or yet another funding/withdrawal bill while our troops continue to fight.
See bill pass. See bill vetoed.
Our troops should see better leaders as they put their lives, not their political affiliations, on the line.

Coonelly answers Bucs fans questions
Club president discusses team's decisions online
By / MLB.com
bucco9600: Mr. Coonelly, I for one have been a big fan of the trades that were made last year. Do you think given an offseason to acclimate to their new surroundings that some of the young players we received in return will improve on their performances?
Coonelly: Welcome to this month's chat and thanks for joining us. Bucco9600, your point is an outstanding one. It is not unusual for a young player to struggle in his initial time as a Major League regular. It is particularly difficult for a player to come into a new situation in the middle of a season and perform at a high level. I think that players like Andy LaRoche, Brandon Moss and Craig Hansen will perform at a much higher level in 2009 give an opportunity to work with Don Long, our hitting coach and Joe Kerrigan, our new pitching coach during the offseason and in Spring Training in Bradenton, Fla. I expect to see good things from each of these players in '09.
bucsin09: Frank, Thanks for the chat, as always. Does the fact that our 40-man roster is full mean we are ineligible to draft in the Rule 5 Draft next week?
Coonelly: No, bucsin09, we have the ability to make a roster move or two to give us an opportunity to select a player or players in the Rule 5 Draft. I fully expect us to be below 40 on our 40-man roster when we are in Las Vegas for the Rule 5 Draft.
jm_bucsfan: How important is clubhouse leadership and, if you think it's important, shouldn't you do everything possible to bring back Doug Mientkiewicz?
Coonelly: Clubhouse leadership is, in my view, extremely important to a club's success, jm_bucsfan. It is an area that Neal Huntington, John Russell and I have stressed and, you are correct, Doug was one of our veteran leaders in the clubhouse last year. We are working hard to convince Doug that returning to the Pirates is an outstanding opportunity for him. We remain optimistic that Doug will want to return to the Pirates where he was so embraced by our fans.
storm77: Mr. Coonelly, I am sure you been asked this already, but can you give me some good reasons to get excited about the 2009 ballclub, it seems after some of the July deadline trades this team looks much weaker and 100 loses looks possible.
Coonelly: There are several reasons, storm77, that I think Pirates fans should be excited about the 2009 season. We have a young team that is, I believe, developing some outstanding players in several important areas. Ryan Doumit, Nate McLouth and Paul Maholm all took a large step in their development last year and acted as very clear examples of how a young player can establish himself in our organization. I believe that there are several other young players on our roster who will have similar breakout seasons in 2009. As we all know, we struggled last year principally because of our inconsistent and largely ineffective starting pitching. Joe Kerrigan is an outstanding teacher and one of the finest game-planners among pitching coaches in Major League Baseball. I continue to believe we have talented young starting pitchers who, with the right leadership and teaching, can be effective Major League pitchers.
gleash: Are you close to getting a replacement for Lanny Frattare?
Coonelly: We are in the final stages of the interview process for the new play-by-play announcer. It has been an exhaustive search, and we have narrowed the field to a handful of outstanding candidates. I expect that we will be in a position to announce Lanny's successor in the very near future.
21sarge: What part of your job have you enjoyed the most, and least?
Coonelly: 21sarge, this is a question that I've been asked on a number of occasions. Without question, the part of the job I have enjoyed the most has been getting to know a large number of our passionate Pirates fans. I knew that Pittsburgh was a great sports town before coming here, but I have learned that this area is full of passionate, intelligent baseball fans who very much want the Pirates to succeed again. There really has not been an aspect of my job that I have not liked, the only days that are difficult have been those days in which we have disappointed our fans by not performing up to our or their expectations. My desire to help this organization produce winning baseball clubs again is better today than ever because of the passion that our fans show the Pirates on a daily basis.
btown25: Mr. Coonelly, I genuinely appreciate the straightforward approach you take to your job. I need to ask you how the organization's stance on accountability has reshaped the Pittsburgh Pirates. Thank you for your time.
Coonelly: I appreciate your comments, btown25. I believe that the insistence on accountability at all levels of the organization has helped to change the culture of the organization. Everyone in the organization understands that our mission is to return this proud franchise to the championship-caliber club that we all remember. Each of us has a responsibility to help us reach this objective, including everyone in the front office and everyone who plays on the field. I also am confident that every department within the organization is working with this common goal as its guiding force. When we are all accountable for performing at the highest possible level in each of our areas, we will be successful as an organization.
schnoah2: What are the Pirates' priorities for the Winter Meetings quickly approaching?
Coonelly: Quite simply, schnoah2, our priority is to add talent to the organization. We continue to look at every avenue to accomplish this objective, including the free-agent market and the trade market. We have been relatively transparent that we would like to add a veteran starting pitcher and a right-handed bat off the bench. More importantly, however, we are continuing to try to add talent at all levels of the organization.
larryden: Do you place any value in Sabrmetrics in your evaluation of talent for the Pirates?
Coonelly: Our organization certainly values the statistical evaluation of players, including amateur players who we are considering drafting and/or signing, Minor League players and Major League players, larryden. We have added Dan Fox to run our analytic department. Dan brings an excellent background in developing and analyzing the most sophisticated measures of player performance. Neal and his staff are charged with utilizing Dan's analysis and the objective evaluations provided by our scouts to make the best evaluations possible. I am a believer that both objective and subjective measures must be given full consideration in the evaluation of player talent.
WieterLess: Do you believe the 2008 team underachieved?
Coonelly: This will be the last question of the chat. Thank you all for your interest in the Bucs and your passion for Pirates baseball. Wieterless, I think that the 2008 club did not perform up to its capacity largely as a result of our inability to get consistent performances from our starting pitching. We had offensive production that should have put us in a position to be competitive and we were not a competitive club largely as a result of our inability to get quality starts from our rotation. We will need to improve the production that we received from our starters in 2009 to be competitive and I believe that the competition that we will have for the rotation this spring will put us in a much better position than we were in 2008.
Coonelly: Thanks everyone for joining me. I'll see you again next month.
pittguest: Thank you, everyone, for participating. The next web chat with Frank Coonelly will be Wednesday, Jan. 7 at 2 p.m. ET We hope to see you all there.

Eagle Mountain • Nearly 100 homeowners in the Utah County community of Eagle Mountain were allowed Tuesday to return to their abodes after having been evacuated overnight due to a fast-moving wildfire.
The 2,959-acre Pinyon Fire, sparked by lightning Sunday on the Utah National Guard's Camp Williams, damaged seven buildings set up at a mock Afghan village training site but has not burned any residences. More than 90 homes were evacuated late Monday as flames approached, but did not enter, the North Ranch subdivision. Of the nearly 3,000 acres, 519 were outside the Camp Williams southern boundary in Utah County.
Firefighting officials reported Tuesday that the blaze was 40 percent contained.
Guard officials said Tuesday they were working to both keep the flames within Camp Williams' boundaries, and specifically away from a remote artillery training "impact area" that may have unexploded ordnance on site.
"Sometimes the rounds explode, no issues. Sometimes they don't," said Lt. Col. Hank McIntire.
He explained it is the duds they are concerned about. "When fire goes through that area, that becomes a concern."
Senior Master Sgt. Daniel Morbach, an explosive ordnance disposal expert, said that since the range has been around since the early 1900s there are hundreds to thousands of artillery shells lying around ranging from small bullets to others 8 inches in diameter.
"This is a live range," Morbach said. "The risky part is the shrapnel."
If a large artillery shell explodes it can scatter shrapnel up to a mile. Morbach said that is why firefighters are taught to report any sightings of shells. So far there have been two, but both were already discharged.
"We are asking them to keep a close eye and if they see something to back out," he said.
Oversight of the firefighting efforts Tuesday was turned over to a Type III Incident Management Team. Spokeswoman Kim Osborn said additional resources were being mustered to turn the tide on the Pinyon Fire. During the day Blackhawk helicopters dropped about 120 buckets 600 gallons each of water on the blaze.
She said three new crews, including one from Alaska, were being brought in, bringing the total of Guard, Utah County, municipal and federal firefighters attacking the blaze to more than 200. In addition, several water-bearing helicopters and fire retardant-laden air tankers joined the fight.
"We're going to try to keep this fire contained within the Camp Williams area. We'll have a lot of firefighters out today and we hope to do some good work," she said.
Late Monday, authorities invited those who could not find accommodations with friends or family to spend the night at a shelter set up at Rockwell Charter High School, while large animals were given refuge in Eagle Mountain's rodeo area. Twenty-seven people spent the night at the shelter overnight, 14 of them inside the school and 13 outside in campers and RVs, Eagle Mountain spokeswoman Linda Peterson said.
However, officials deemed the threat to homes in the area over by late Tuesday morning, announcing the evacuation order was being lifted.
By Tuesday afternoon a caravan of evacuee trucks hauling trailers and cars made an uninterrupted drive from the school back to their homes in the North Ranch subdivision.
Tom and Marsha Worlton unleashed their 10 prize-winning Lhasa Apso dogs first thing when they returned home. "This was our number one priority getting these animals out," Tom said as his pets barked with excitement after spending the night in an RV and kennels outside the shelter.
"It feels really good," Worlton said about being back but added, "We will keep the kennels handy. We will stay prepared until this [fire] is contained."
Jared and Leslie Jones didn't even plan on evacuating until family in Lehi became concerned for them, so they packed up a few things and spent the night with them. By Tuesday afternoon, they had unpacked and returned home and were busily attending to their dry garden.
"We didn't really feel threatened," Jared Jones said while watering plants.
The evacuations came after winds kicked up the flames throughout Monday afternoon in tinder-dry sagebrush, grass, juniper and pinyon fuels.
Eagle Mountain Mayor Heather Jackson said people were being allowed back to their homes Tuesday because although flames late Monday had burned within 600 feet of some homes, "the most active fronts of the fire" were contained to the Camp Williams area.
Regarding other Utah wildfires, the:
• Pine Canyon Fire near Grouse Creek in Box Elder County has burned nearly 400 acres. There was no estimate Tuesday for when it would be fully contained.
• Pumpkin Fire, burning 20 miles east of Spanish Fork in Utah County, was declared 100 percent contained Tuesday afternoon after burning nearly 200 acres, according to Fire Information Officer Loyal Clark.
• Pyramid Fire in Iron County, northwest of Enterprise, was fully contained Tuesday afternoon after burning 51 acres. The fire was sparked by lightning Sunday afternoon.
• West Mountain Fire in Washington County had burned near 2,500 acres but was 75 percent contained. Crews continued to monitor flames that had earlier threatened radio towers, but no evacuations had been ordered and no injuries were reported.
