Nearly 250 nonprofits participated in 24-hour fundraising initiative
Western New York celebrated the first day of spring Thursday by giving generously through "Spring It On," a 24-hour online fundraising event. More than $114,000 was raised to benefit a diverse group of nonprofit organizations that posted and tweeted about the unique one-day event.
The amount raised was a significant increase over the $76,000 donated in 2013, the event's inaugural year. Arts and cultural, education, health and human services, environmental, religious and animal protection organizations were among the beneficiaries of the contributions.
"Spring It On" is an online giving event created and powered by the United Way of Buffalo and Erie County. It is designed to raise awareness and funds for not-for-profit organizations. The event was expanded this year beyond Erie and Niagara counties to include Chautauqua, Allegany and Orleans counties. It grew from 182 participating organizations last year to nearly 250 this year.
"Spring It On," is modeled on successful one-day fundraising events in other communities, including Rochester's "ROC The Day." The event's goal is to mobilize citizens for one day of giving to strengthen and support the community.
Individuals were able to make a one-time, secure, online donation to the local not-for-profit agency of their choice through a specially designed website, www.springiton.org. United Way and participating agencies promoted the event through social media messaging, website communication and traditional marketing initiatives. All 501(c) 3 organizations in the five counties were eligible to participate. Each organization set their own fundraising goals and promoted the event directly to their supporters.
Michael Weiner, president and CEO of United Way of Buffalo and Erie County, said, "We knew we had a great event last year when we first introduced 'Spring It On.' Success this year proves that this is a wonderful tool for nonprofits of any size to reach out to the community, share their story, and raise discretionary funds in a highly visible and yet cost-effective manner. We are thrilled with the success of 'Spring It On,' both in terms of the number of organizations across five counties that participated, and the amount of money raised. As always, the Western New York community truly demonstrated its generous spirit!"
The United Way of Buffalo and Erie County brings people, organizations and resources together to improve community well-being. Through program funding, community collaborations and strategic initiatives in the areas of education, income, and health and wellness, the United Way strives to help children reach their full potential, adults and families achieve financial stability, and people of all ages achieve and maintain physical, social and emotional health.

My Site is only PR3 and i'm not making good money with it. My target was to reach PR 5 to be able to raise my price to $50+ per link. My question is, does anyone here on BHW have a site with PR 5 or up? How hard is it to reach this PR? It's been months and my PR is not improving even with continuous Whitehat linking. Okay, don't tell me that selling TLAs are not good in the eyes of Google. I already know that.

Iron Barley Restaurant Review: For more than a decade, proprietor Tom Coghill has been surprising newcomers with sammiches and blaster pies (a frozen cheesecake-ice cream available in various styles, all involving a little spicy-hot flavor to offset the sweet). The touches of too-cuteness in the names are easily forgiven with the first bite of the nicely smoky oak-roasted pork chops. One of the signature dishes is schnitzel and spätzle, breaded pork cutlets in white wine sauce alongside homemade dumpling noodles. We get why it's so popular. What's more, the eponymous barley isn't just some wise guy's joke; it's available as a side or as apple-studded barley pudding for dessert, the latter a nice riff on rice pudding. Local craft beers are the drink of choice for most locals in this neighborhood, and the zippier ales pair well with Coghill's rich dishes.

This Is Broken: Tukey's Bridge (of Doom)
It is also completely and utterly broken: poorly designed and maintained, inconvenient, and unsafe. The fact that so many people still use it nevertheless testifies to its importance as a connector between neighborhoods.
Here's a tour of the bridge from a pedestrian's and cyclist's perspective:
To get to the sidewalk from the south, one must either take the Back Bay path or, if you're coming from any of the neighborhoods on the north side of the bridge, cut through a parking lot and follow a dark, narrow path under an overpass (broken glass abounds, natch).
The bridge makes room for eight lanes of freeway and one meager sidewalk, which is only on one side of the bridge. For most of its length, the sidewalk only has enough room for two people walking abreast. Bicyclists, runners, walkers, and strollers passing each other in both directions are frequently forced to jockey for space: in traffic engineering terms, this sidewalk's level of service gets an "F".
A big part of the problem is the fact that there's no sidewalk for northbound traffic on the other side of the bridge. Cyclists headed north have the choice of breaking one of two laws: either ride (illegally) on the sidewalk that leads into the bridge from Washington Avenue, or stay on the right shoulder of the road, even for the 100 yards over the bridge where it's designated a freeway and bicycles are forbidden (I opt for the latter option, which is faster and safer to my mind).
Anyhow, continuing southward, bikes and pedestrians have a choice between peeling off onto the Back Bay/Eastern Prom trails or continuing on a narrower sidewalk along the off-ramp to Washington Avenue and the Munjoy Hill neighborhood. If you should choose the latter, you'll encounter this off-ramp to Anderson Street:
Note the beefy guardrails. Traffic here is only supposed to be traveling at neighborhood speeds at this point, but this road is obviously designed to encourage much faster traffic. Not that this could be at all related to the speeding pickup truck that hit me, dragged me along the pavement, and ran away just a few blocks down this same street (see previous post).
Because of the guardrails, bikes and pedestrians must cross the off-ramp at the crosswalk, which at least has a bright sign to get the attention of the hurtling traffic.
Once across the off-ramp, bicyclists have two unsavory choices: either continue up the extremely narrow and overgrown sidewalk, as this guy does, until the guardrail ends and you can hop onto the street.
Or, if you want to be legal, wait until the coast is clear...
At the other side of the crosswalk, make a sharp turn against traffic (keeping a sharp lookout to make sure there aren't any cars coming around the bend at 60 MPH)...
Make a tight turn around the end of the guardrail...
...and ride normally up the right side of Washington Avenue (presuming you haven't been vehicularly manslaughtered in the meantime).
The state DOT could easily and cheaply fix the latter hazard by cutting the guardrail at the other end of the crosswalk and installing a curb cut there where bikes can go directly from the sidewalk to the road. This would also make it easier for northbound cyclists to get onto the bridge path from the other side of Washington.
It's kind of a wonder our highway engineers didn't do this in the first place, but I've seen enough highway engineers to know that they aren't fond of using their legs.
I'll be sending this assessment to the following bureaucrats, and I'd encourage you to send your thoughts on this crossing to the same people:
- Steve Linnell, Greater Portland Council of Governments Sr. Transportation Planner: firstname.lastname@example.com
- John Duncan, Director, Portland Area Comprehensive Transportation Committee (PACTS): email@example.com
- Eric Ortman, Transportation Planner for PACTS: email@example.com

Historic River Cruise
For a delightful one-hour cruise, this Historic River Cruise will take guests sailing past Old Sacramento's famous historical sights from the comfort of a yacht!
Hop aboard this one-hour cruise along the Sacramento River for views of many historical sights. Visit the unique Delta King Hotel, beautifully floating along the river with modern lodging amenities, two delicious restaurants, two professional theaters, a wine school, and amazing old-world charm. Observe the beautiful metal truss swing bridge known as the I Street Bridge as it crosses the Sacramento River. Built in 1911, this historic bridge was originally part of State Route 16! Another stop, the Tower Bridge, was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. This vertical lift bridge across the river links West Sacramento with the main city and was once part of U.S. Route 40 until that highway was truncated east of Salt Lake City. Enjoy views of the Air Force Docks, which is part of the Sacramento Wharf, a port facility located along the Sacramento River waterway and that specializes in mooring vessels.
Listen to fascinating stories from the history of Sacramento during this one-hour cruise, and learn about Sacramento founder John Sutter, the wild first days of the Gold Rush, and the legendary Pony Express. California's capital city is filled with exciting history and beautiful sights, and guests of this cruise will have the perfect view. Remember to bring some cash if you'd like a snack or beverage from the concessions, which are open several days of the week.

Dan's got printer's ink in his blood. This April he tells the story of printing that began in April, 1863.
The idea that would ultimately lead to the computer printer actually started with shingles. The kind you put on a roof, not the kind whose symptoms include a painful rash.
Bullock's Rotary Press
Sometime in the mid-1830s, an enterprising young foundry man and machinist by the name of William Bullock invented a machine to cut shingles. It was a real labor-saving device. Overcome by the smells of success and money, Bullock moved to Savannah, Georgia, and started a shingle-cutting factory. He went broke.
Undaunted, Bullock kept inventing things. He made artificial limbs, seed planters, a grain drill. During the late 1850s, Bullock moved to Pittsburgh and entered the newspaper business. By 1861, he had designed and built a printing press for the Cincinnati Times. Then, on April 14, 1863, he was granted a patent for the continuous-roll printing press. This invention would change history, and have a role in recording it.
By 1865, the world's first continuous-roll rotary printing press was in operation. The Bullock press, as it came to be known, could finish up to 10,000 pages per hour as it printed on both sides of the paper. Bullock's press could cut the continuous roll of paper into individual sheets as if they were shingles, cutting either before or after printing. The Bullock press is said to have enabled the creation of mass-circulation newspaper publishing. Without it, neither Hearst nor Pulitzer would have had an audience.
Sadly, Bullock's story has a tragic ending. In 1867, just two years after his first press went into operation, he fell into a press as it was being constructed. Dare I say it? He was a man consumed by his work.
I have a personal interest in the rotary press. When my father returned from World War II, he used his GI benefits to become a pressman. In 1950, he moved our family from Altoona, Pennsylvania, to Harrisburg, where he went to work for a specialty printing house. The MacFarland Printing Company occupied an entire city block in Harrisburg. I still remember the time that he took me to see the press room. Everything about it was big. Huge rolls of paper fit on one end of the press and somehow, magically, full-color catalogs came out the other end. I was entranced.
IBM's High-Speed Computer Printer
It was at about the same time, the 1950s, that computer manufacturers realized that the mainframe computer was going to need a new output device that could print all manner of documents. As well as continuous form computer paper, what we always called green bar because of its alternating rows of light green and dark green, mainframe users wanted to print insurance policies, telephone bills, paychecks, and everything in between.
In 1959, IBM came up with the answer. The IBM archive describes the 1403 printer this way: "The IBM 1403 Printer is a completely new development providing maximum thru-put of forms and documents in printing data from punched cards and magnetic tape. The printer incorporates a swiftly moving horizontal chain (similar in appearance to a bicycle chain) of engraved type faces, operated by 132 electronically-timed hammers spaced along the printing line. The impact of a hammer presses the paper and ink ribbon against a type character, causing it to print. The chain principle achieves perfect alignment of the printed line." IBM bragged that the 1403 printer was four times faster than any competitor. The IBM web site maintains that the 1403 "launched the era of high-speed and high volume printing, and was not surpassed for print quality until the advent of laser printing technology in the 1970s."
Both Sides? No
For all of IBM's claims that the IBM 1403 printer was an entirely new development, it was truly a descendant of Bullock's invention, a mini rotary press. Although it couldn't print on both sides of the paper at once, it was fed by boxes of continuous-form paper, perforated at each page boundary, and it produced high-quality printed documents. Like the rotary press, the 1403 gave birth to an array of companies to support it. Moore Business Forms designed and prepared the custom forms, like bills and paychecks, that were needed for the mainframe's new applications. Unlike the Bullock press, the 1403 didn't cut the paper, so a number of manufacturers built decollators to remove carbon paper and bursters to separate each sheet from its perforation.
In the wake of the invention of the 1403, the mainframe computer room resembled nothing so much as my dad's press room—with tape drives thrown in for good measure.
Although IBM discontinued the 1403 in 1971, it remained the printer of choice throughout the decade.
But all good things must end, and the Xerox laser printer, with its cut sheets of paper and its ability to print its own forms, brought an end to the era of large continuous-form printers. From Bullock's press to computer mainframe printing took about one hundred years. It all started in April 1863—and that's when it happened.

2017 Marathon Course run-through
Explore wild red rock canyons and trails in an unforgettable trail running event. The race is located just a 2 hour 35 minute drive South of the Salt Lake City International Airport. Run through several unique canyons connected by remote sections of the Paiute ATV trail. There are three distances to choose from: a 13 mile half-marathon, a 26 mile marathon, and a 50 mile ultramarathon. The evening before the race, there will be pre-race pasta feasting during packet pickup at the Days Inn (partner hotel) in Richfield. Those traveling to the event can also stay at an available field for free camping. Racers will receive a long-sleeve tek shirts and awesome finisher medals . Awards will be given to the top three male and female finishers in each distance division.
Course summary: the half-marathon runs a loop in the "Red Hills" West of Richfield. The Marathon distance does most of this loop, plus extends up higher on the mountains to double the distance. The ultramarathon will do a 24 mile loop around Table Mountain, and then completes the marathon course. More details on the "Course" page.
With a date changes to the Utah Deer Hunt in 2018 on the Phavant Mountain Range, the race weekend in 2018 has been moved up a couple weeks to avoid the same weekend. There will be a staggered start to the marathon and half-marathon distances to avoid congestion as runners enter a slot canyon and climb a ladder at 2 miles into the run. This is why you will see multiple options for these distances as you register on ultrasignup.com. The marathon will start at 7:00 AM (so no need for headlamps) & 7:10 AM. The half marathon will start at 7:30/7:40/ 7:50 and if needed 8:00 AM. The ultramarathon starts at 6:00 AM, and head or hand lamps are recommended the first hour, and required if going to be on the course after 7:00 PM.
Because of awesome slots canyons at the beginning of the race, space is limited. Sign up early to reserve your spot for this unique race.

Healing from Heartbreak
We all experience heartbreak in our lives when we risk getting close to someone and it doesn't work out the way we had hoped. I experienced a very tough breakup earlier this year and I am just now getting to the acceptance phase. It isn't easy, but we have to move forward in life and look at everything as a learning experience. I'm grateful to have many wonderful people in my life to support me and to help me move forward. I found this following passage in an old journal and decided to share it with my friends.
When someone asks about a past relationship, I now say, "It didn't work out, we wanted different things." End of story. I find this to be the best response when people want to know details about a past relationship. Let it go, close the book, there is no need to discuss the past, in this case, it will only upset you. It is healing to close the book and let it go. Discussing it is counterproductive.
Dwell in the present. Let the past and negative feelings vanish into the air. They do not serve you, they bring you down. We must make an effort to focus on the good and release the negative, in all facets of our lives and lighten up. Discussing the relationship just makes you and others feel badly. I am not telling you to ignore the pain. You must feel the pain and let it go. It takes time, but you can feel it and let it go without talking about it to others. Try to let only good, encouraging, and positive words pass through your lips. You will find miracles happen when you practice this. Encourage and help others and yourself. Do not add to the negative energy in the universe. We must be conscious and mindful about this and as hard as it is, it really is the only way to move forward and lighten up your life. I hope anyone that is experiencing a broken heart will realize that time will heal the pain, and that you will move forward and live and love again. I am still healing, but know I am on a different path, he was not my destiny. We wanted different things.

Republican Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney is responding a day after Reality Check took a look at what he did not say during his visit to Terrace Park.
On Tuesday, when asked to take a stance on Issue 2, Romney said, "I am not speaking about the particular ballot issues, Those are up to the people of Ohio. But I certainly support the efforts of the governor to reign in the scale of government. I am not terribly familiar with the two ballot initiatives. But I am certainly supportive of the Republican Party's efforts here.
On Wednesday, Romney clarified this statement, saying he was "110 percent" behind Issue 2, adding, "I'm sorry if I created any confusion in that regard."

Research Project
Grant-in-Aid for international Scientific Research
The dynamics of growth, mortality, reproduction and the size and spatial distributions of genets of Anthoxanthum alpinum, Deschampsia flexuosa, Nardus stricta, Festuca rubra were investigated in a mountain grassland of the Krkonose Mountains in the Czech Republic. Based on the field and experimental results, maintenance mechanisms of species and genetic diversity were theoretically investigated. We extracted DNA from about 2000 sampled leaves and identified size and spatial position of each individual genet by using a DNA-RAPD method. We found 450-750 genets per 1mィイD12ィエD1 of Festuca rubra. Its mean genet size was about 22 cmィイD12ィエD1. The clonal growth rate of Festuca rhizomes was 0.2-0.3/year. The mortality rate of shoot was also 0.2-0.3/year. It is almost impossible to measure genet natality in a non-destructive way. Therefore, we developed a new model to estimate genet natality from the above-mentioned demographic parameters. It was suggested that the Festuca population can persist stably if the genet natality rate is 4-10genets/1mィイD12ィエD1 year. The clonal growth and mortality rates of Festuca shoots showed only small variations in the field. Genet natality may be most greatly affected by environmental variations. When the clonal growth and mortality rates of Festuca shoots are in the range of the values given above, the Festuca shoot population is stable even if the genet natality is greatly varied due to environmental variations. It was also revealed that genetic structure played a more important role than competition between species for the dynamics of grassland plant community studied here.

The cadences and drum rolls from my son's Christmas prezzie (drum set) have spurred me to complete another project so that I can finally say the drum roll is for me! Viola, a year long in the waiting (but which project hasn't been lately)! I'm done. Check mark, notch on the pole, close the pattern binder.
Here are my new NorgeSlips from a Drops pattern. I've already warned you that Drops writes patterns old-style so you really have to read and reread prior to casting on or continuing to the next section. This was a small and fast project. I say that with a smirk.
The knitting was on larger needles so the Bozo-the-clown finished product had shrinking room. They actually have been seamed since last February (that's 09 folks). I set them aside to work on other projects and get more felted projects ready before I used so much water and spin for just this – the frugal side said 'get a load' or at least more than one project. . .
2009 came and went (and it went out kicking and screaming) but my slippers did not make the trip to the spin dry until this week. I can see where I would like to edit and how I could possibly spot shrink certain parts but for a first effort I'm very happy.
The name I've given has a reason. I plan to put puffy paint on the soles so I don't go sliding or slipping — could be good ab exercise though. I'll have to rethink that. 😉

I have aways enjoyed reading about people who are suggested recipients of the Darwin Award. These are folks who have performed some idiotic act that resulted in their demise and thus removed themselves from the gene pool of idiots.
A similar award should be made for those who do an idiotic act but live to continue to fill the gene pool with more idiots. A perfect example occurred this week. A burglar who was robbing a WalMart escaped and when the police were in pursuit he hid in a dumpster. A trash truck came just as he was secure in his hiding place and emptied the contents of the dumpster, including the burglar, where it was compacted. The idiot survived, but was fairly compressed as they loaded him on to a stretcher for a trip to the hospital. This award should probably just be called Idiots Award, because these folks survive and continue to multiply to fill the world with more idiots.
I have a lot of recommendations for this award. Many of them are associated with the government and those who make up some of the rules we must live with. A recent example related to my wives refill for a medicine. She had been suffering from a bout of asthma. The doctor prescribed an inhalant with some steroid that was very effective in stopping the asthma. He wanted her to get it refilled and continue the treatment for another month. We were scheduled to be on a trip when the refill came due in about five days. We were refused the refill because we were on Medicare and could not be given the medication in advance, even though we were going to be out of the state. Our only option was to go without the medicine and hope for the best. If the asthma returned, while we were away, this would have required a trip to an unknown doctor and emergency room with a resultant $2000 charge. That makes a lot of sense. The government pays this extra charge and still pays for the $50 Rx. I know some of the rules are to curb fraud and abuse, but there is something called common sense especially since I was well know to the pharmacy.
As Obamacare kicks in we are going to encounter more and more rules made up by a larger army of idiots. The next thing we will be hearing is that the medication we needed is not available for those over a certain age. That's called rationing. The whole thing is scary. Even the porch is not a safe haven from the hoards of idiots who control our lives.

Also known as Oregon alder, western alder, Pacific coast alder.
Red Alder is the most common hardwood in the Pacific Northwest. It is also the largest species of alder. Seasoned alder burns warm, but fast. Wet alder puts out a lot of ash and very little heat. Alder cuts and splits easily with an axe, but will leave an orange stain on hands and clothes. Continue reading "Woodlot – Red Alder"

One would think that a biometric passport would be more secure than a regular passport. Of course security is a function of the designer, and if there's fault in that department then their fault in its product. For proof, head over to the Guardian and read the story, "Cracked it!," where some folks show how anybody with about $200 and a little bit of programming knowledge can crack the RFID security wide open to reveal everything hidden therein.

Weekly Update
Posted December 29th, 2007
The Forest's silhouette contrasted dramatically with the full moon illuminated sky, as Tasha drove onwards into her next era of life. Trey, our retiring kitchen manager, created the most decadent chocolate eight-layer celebration cake as the deliciously nutritious grand finale dessert. The following morning he was heard whistling, while setting off towards upcoming adventures. We are very much grateful for their energy contributed and love shared here. From revolutionizing processes, spreading laughter with their enticing humor, and all sorts in between, Tasha and Trey most definitely left an inspiring impression amongst this space and this collective and we are all so sorry to see them go. Thank you, thank you.
Following the Dome Celebration on January 6th, the Hostel will be closed January 7th thru 14th for construction. The projects will extend beyond these days, so we are asking parents to explore elsewhere with their lil ones during the entire month. Furthermore, we have begun accepting reservations for our next sweat lodge on Tuesday, January 22nd. Please remember that we ask all participants to check-in the day before the actual sweat.
Until next time…
May The Forest Be With You…The Hostel Staff
Update 12-10-2007
Posted December 10th, 2007
This week at the Hostel we were privileged to have the company of two very interesting and educational traveling tours, The BioTour and The Travelin' Medicine Show. Both were nice enough to give workshops to the guests lucky enough to be here this week, and they helped out around the Hostel while they were staying here. Thanks guys for sharing your knowledge with us and with all help.
The BioTour's mission aims to enliven the Sustainability Movement while exploring the depths of America—the people, land, and cultures. BioTour addresses the vital issues of climate change, environmental degradation, and peak oil while presenting pathways toward sustainability in renewable energy, active democracy, and understanding the interconnectedness of all living things. To learn more about them and their mission check them out here.
As for The Travelin' Medicine Show their sing-a-longs of peace, social justice, and inspiration was a heartfelt gathering around the fire pit that lead to conversations of many topics for hours after ward. Their presence while here was a wonderful way to teach-by-being, showing compassionate and nonviolent communication. They also offered Reiki to the staff and guests and Meditation was held several mornings in the glasshouse.
The month of December so far has been filled with fun Hostel family visits just like anticipated and were already getting reservations for next month, so we would just like people to be aware that the month of January will be filled with big repairs happening at the Hostel. The second week in January we will be closed Also, through out the whole month of January we're asking parents not to make reservations with their little ones.
Until next time…

Weekly Update 12-3-2007
Posted December 3rd, 2007
The end of November was a full and quick moving week here at the Hostel. Trey held a Pita Workshop in the Kitchen one night while we all sat around enjoying the bread and the kitchen atmosphere with our dinner meal. Guests have been spending a lot of time around the fire pit during the nights with the winter chill moving in, so that had the staff motivated to fix the wood burning stove in the common room. Now we can also cozy up on the couches inside the dome while also sipping on warm herbal teas heated on the stove top.
Erin's birthday was a beautiful celebration of all things wonderful and Erin-like. Thanks for sharing your day with us Erin, it was fun to watch your light shine and spread to all those around you!
Tom's third book Born a Ramblin' Man is now published. Anyone interested in sharing in some of Tom's funniest, riskiest, and most embarrassing true stories should visit Born a Ramblin' Man to order a book, or you can also pick one of them up here at the Hostel.
Sean who had been here with us at the Hostel for the past two months has moved on from the forest to start new adventures in his life, we wish him good luck and safe travels along the way.
The month of December seems to be filled with lots of exciting winter cheer, no parties planned for the holidays, but we already have so many Hostel family members and friends expected to drop in and that the fun will be sure to follow.
We can't wait to see everyone and look forward to the new month.
Until next time….

Exposure Draft legislation to introduce the revised Organisation for Economic Co-Operation (OECD) standards for transfer pricing documentation and Country-by-Country reporting has been released, having potential implications for multinational enterprises with annual global revenue above the $1 billion threshold.
Multinational tax avoidance is a topical issue globally, with the OECD at the forefront of efforts to counter international tax avoidance and evasion.
In 2013, the OECD and G20 Countries adopted the Action Plan on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (the BEPS Action Plan), a fifteen-point plan designed to ensure that profits are taxed where activities that generate profits are performed.
Action 13 recognises that enhanced transparency for tax administrations, by providing them with adequate information to conduct transfer pricing risk assessments, is an essential part of tackling profit shifting. It outlines a standardised, three-tiered approach to transfer pricing documentation.
Proposed changes
The recently released exposure draft legislation intends to implement Action 13 of the BEPS Action Plan into Australian law.
Under the proposed legislation, Australian residents or foreign residents with an Australian permanent establishment that have annual global revenue of $1 billion or more will be required to provide a statement to the Commissioner. This is intended to apply to both Australian headquartered multinational enterprises and Australian subsidiaries of multinational enterprises headquartered outside of Australia.
The statement may be required to include one or more of the following:
- a Country-by-Country report, requiring high-level information relating to the global allocation of a multinational group's income and taxes paid, as well as information about the location and main business of each constituent entity within the group;
- a master file, requiring an overview of the multinational group's business operations; and
- a local file, focusing on specific transactions between the reporting entity and their associated enterprises in other countries.
The statement is intended to provide the Commissioner with relevant and reliable information to carry out a transfer pricing risk assessment.
The amendments are proposed to apply in

Winter officially started 2 weeks ago. I'm two weeks behind. Two weeks, no peaks. I'm all ready very much doubting my ability to pull this off. As the price of gas increases I continue to run out of money to even try this. However, I love any trip I can take into the White Mountains. It's my backyard. I know more about the White's then I do about any of the towns I've lived in in the last 5 years. So it's always a mini-homecoming when I peel off the highway and find myself at a trail head.
Today it was Patrick and I. Pat is getting ready for his upcoming Winter Backpacking class with the UNH OE Department. He has limited winter hiking experience but knows he's in good hands. I trust the kid an awful lot, competent and a good head on his shoulders. The kid is strong, I know he can hang. We meet up at a Park-N-Ride with a plan. We'll hike the Osceola's and then head just up the road a whole quarter mile and hike the Hancocks. Pat thinks the 17.6 miles is a bit more then we can chew.. if everything goes according to plan, it's a no brainer for me, just a long day of walking for 8 hours. He's up for the challenge and so am I.
As we drive down the Kanc from Lincoln and look out the window, our jaws drop. There's more snow in our towns (Derry and Epping) then there is here. As we park the car and get out, we see that the trail has been very well travelled. It usually is. Pat has everything.. including the Kitchen sink.. in his pack. He asks me if he should leave the sleeping bag and pad behind, I chuckle and he says, "Oh what the hell.. it's weight training." So, my with my minimal gear and Pat with everything under the sun, we head out.
Soon we came to the famous East Osceola Slide. We were pleased to see that a rock ridge was visible right up the center of the slide. We walked the line up, then jumped off and back into the woods. Finally, we reached the top of East Osceola where we took our packs off and had a long snack. I had almonds, dark chocolate, raisins and craisins then chased it down with a strawberry banana fruit smoothie from Stonyfield. After our brief break and a few photos, we slung our packs back on and started to head over to Osceola main peak.
Back at the car, after having a really great time out in the whites, we knew that the Hancocks were out of the question. It took us almost 8 hours to do these peaks, one of my all time slows up here. But what the hell, our slow slog of the O's beat a ay inside watching crummy TV shows on cable. Until I return again...
Happy Trails

"Official Dog Walker" To Puppy Mill Rescues
Twelve-year-old Micah feels a special affinity to these dogs
As the son of a veterinarian, twelve-year-old Micah Staub has been around animals all his life. His family frequently makes space in their home for abused, unwanted, and "special needs" animals.
Among these animals are horses taken in just before they were sold for slaughter, three pit bulls rescued from dogfighting operations, a two-legged English Bulldog, a blind pug, and many dogs rescued from puppy mills.
"The Staub family has helped so much with our hands-on rescue efforts in Indiana," said Anne Sterling, Indiana state director for The HSUS. "They have never turned down an opportunity to help the animals, whether they are roosters from a cockfighting ring, pit bulls from a dogfighting raid, or dogs from a puppy mill."
But when the Staub family took in approximately thirty dogs—including several nursing mothers with newborn puppies—from a recent puppy mill seizure, it was a huge job, even for people with their experience.
Micah wrote in an email to The HSUS about puppy mills:
The dogs need freedom. Puppy mills hurts them. It make people mad and hurt peoples feelings. They (people) need help them to get out of the bad place. They been locked up with no playing and fetching. It make me feel sad when they are lock up in cages for hours. It just make me want to to cried alot. It hurt my heart and my feelings about the dogs.
I love to walk them and play. They look happy and wiggle tails alot.
The Ends
P.S. Thank you for saving the dogs from the puppy mills.
Micah quickly made it his duty to become, in his words, their "official dog walker." The recovering dogs flourished with the exercise and individual attention they lacked for so long.
"Micah has walked those dogs every day," said his mother Candice. "He loves the dogs because they will relate to him and not judge. They simply love him for what he is and Micah does the same."
Compassion and understanding
Other children are sometimes hard on Micah because he has learning differences and a speech impediment, said Candice. She feels this makes Micah all the more understanding of animals who have special needs.
The HSUS' Maddie's Fund Puppy Mills Task Force recently sent Micah a care package to thank him for working so hard with the rescued dogs. The package included a Task Force T-shirt and a letter naming Micah as an honorary member of the task force.
Candice Staub hopes that young people who strive to be kind to animals will remember to extend that compassion to peers who are different.
"The dogs are the one thing he loves. They do not judge his speech or his color or his size. They just love him for who he is, and the relationship that you see unfold is heartwarming."
Hear more from Micah in his interview with Humane Teen.

2005 Media Coverage
Mother Jones
Atheists finally have their own lobbying group.
Arizona Daily Sun
Weary of feeling silenced by a culture dominated by organized faith, nonbelievers in southern Arizona -- and across the country -- are coming out.
Secular Web
Lori Lipman Brown Brown goes to Washington as the first Director/Lobbyist of the Secular Coalition for America, of which Internet Infidels is a founding member.
CBS News
It's quite possibly the last special interest group to establish a voice in Washington. The Secular Coalition for America has hired Lori Lipman Brown as its congressional lobbyist and national voice.
Kansas State Collegian
Godless heathens of America, rejoice! Wait, can heathens rejoice? Regardless, non-Christians just won two important national victories in the past few weeks. Just days after the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals declared that requiring public school children to recite the phrase "under God" in the Pledge of Allegiance violated the First Amendment, Capitol Hill said hello to Lori Lipman Brown -- our first atheist lobbyist.
Las Vegas Sun
The career of the first lobbyist to represent atheists on Capitol Hill -- Las Vegan Lori Lipman Brown -- was forged in the political fires of Nevada.
Daily Kos
Lori Lipman Brown, the Director and Lobbyist of the Secular Coalition for America (SCA) is going to be on Bill O'Reilly's TV show on Wednesday, September 28th. It should be an interesting showdown. [Webmaster's note: The reporter assumed, because of Brown's work for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender equality, and because Brown refers to her husband as her "partner," that Brown is a lesbian. Brown is hopeful that the error will point out that allies are welcome in every civil rights struggle, and that our members welcome the assistance of Theists in our fight to be included in our secular government and in society in general.]
Washington Times
Atheists finally have a lobbyist of their own.
Las Vegas Review-Journal
Former Nevada state senator Lori Lipman Brown began work Monday as a lobbyist for the Secular Coalition for America, a group of humanists and atheists formed after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks to keep religion out of government.
USA Today
Americans who don't believe in God have decided it's time they had a lobbyist in the nation's capital. Their new advocate describes herself as a "soft, fuzzy atheist." [Letter to editor: Non-believers' voice]
Forward Newspaper Online
The nonbelievers are fighting back. The Secular Coalition for America -- which sees itself as the voice of America's agnostics, humanists and nontheists -- has just hired its first full-time Washington lobbyist: former Nevada state senator Lori Lipman Brown, a longtime civil rights activist.
Las Vegas City Life
Lori Lipman Brown just accepted one of the toughest jobs on the planet: Taking atheism to Washington D.C.
Humanist Network News
A coalition of non-religious organizations has hired the first lobbyist in Washington D.C. to represent the rights of humanists, atheists and other freethinkers.
U.S. News and World Report
In the midst of a brouhaha in Buffalo last month over a gay men's choral performance at a church, Jeff Ingersoll opened up the Buffalo News. A statement from a religious protester caught his eye: "You've got to stop the abortionists, the homosexuals, the pornographers, the secular humanists," the protester said.
Las Vegas Review-Journal
President George W. Bush's re-election in November was a galvanizing event for many groups in American politics. Republicans, of course. Conservatives, certainly. Americans who consider religious faith a valid consideration in public policy, perhaps. But Bush's re-election also was a galvanizing event for another group: People who don't necessarily believe in a Supreme Being and who would prefer that, if there is one, he or she stay out of American politics.
San Diego Union-Tribune
Herb Silverman, president of the Secular Coalition for America, said he considers Newdow to be an "outstanding representative" of the nation's secularists.
Bracing for what's to come from a Republican-controlled White House and Congress, people who don't believe in God are joining forces as never before to make sure their rights don't get trampled in what they perceive as a stampede of religious zeal.

The Alexander Sosiak Memorial Tbird CD
The Alexander Sosiak Memorial Virtual Thunderbird Show & Shine power show is now available. This show was produced in memory of our founder, who gave so much to us in the short time he was with us in life.
The show contains about 225 slides of '58-'66 Thunderbirds that belong to some of our members here on Squarebirds. It shows what a Tbird can look like when it is rescued from a field, or other location, and put through a thorough restoration. You will see the Before and After pictures, in some cases. You will enjoy seeing the many different Tbirds that our friends have been working with, and enjoying.
The show runs about 21 minutes, using Microsoft PowerPoint, for both Mac and a PC and it will loop. The CD also contains the Power Point Viewer files for those who do not have Microsoft PowerPoint.
About a dozen CD's have been shipped already, to Sweden, New Zealand, Australia and across the U.S.. Comments are coming in as to how great they think the show is, and how much they are enjoying it.
You can have your own copy for a donation of $10 to Squarebirds, a non-profit organization. You can make that donation to me by using my PayPal account, or mailing me a check, money order or cash. If you will PM me I will give you my PayPal account, and my mailing address. I will need your mailing address also.
All funds over production and mailing costs will be submitted to John Peters, the LOD/Squarebirds Treasurer for use in defraying the costs of keeping the Squarebirds Forum up and running..
If you ordered a CD and did not receive it, please let me know. To my knowledge all orders have been filled, and mailed out.

Victor Davis Hanson's National Review Online column is "A real war." It is discouraging that Hanson senses the need to elaborate on the obvious, and even more discouraging to measure how far his recommendations depart from current American foreign policy.
He urges "a radical reappraisal of our entire relationship with the Middle East. A Radio Free Europe, though valuable, nevertheless did not free Eastern Europe; nor did Voice of America. Containment and deterrence did. As long as governments in Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and many Gulf states encourage hatred of the United States, we must quietly consider them de facto little different from a Libya, Syria, or Iran. For all the glitter and imported Western graphics, al Jazeera and its epigones are not that much different from Radio Berlin of the 1930s."
He adds that "anytime we have showed restraint

text: Hi every body, hope you all are having good time I am new to seo though i am familiar with some basic aspects of seo, I have been planning to do on page changes for a site and while doing that i came up with debate on meta character limitation. I know the Google meta character rules like Title is set to 69 Characters Description is set to 200 Characters and Keywords is set to max 20 words my argue is with description only, is it really necessary to keep description to 200 char, as now in off page we also go for social media and bookmarking where it will collect meta description from site, wouldn't it be nice to increase the character from 200 to max 300 so that it provide more clear info about the link to web user and helps in increasing clicks on link. what I want to know that what will be the impact on seo strategy or keyword optimization if i exceed character limit in description only? I Have attached 2 images in reference of my question. Regards Freakblogger

For consumers in the UK the last few weeks has been pretty busy in terms of 4G launch news. Both Vodafone and O2 have confirmed that they will be flicking the LTE switch at the end of August. With EE already being well established and currently the only UK network to offer 4G, it just leaves Three to pull their fingers out and get the 4G ball rolling. Whichever of the above networks you are with your BlackBerry 10 smartphone will be 4G ready.
A while back Three said that they would not charge any extra for 4G services and they have now reinforced that claim which will make them unique as currently all the other networks have a premium charge for LTE. Three already are extremely competitive on pricing - especially with their 'All You Can Eat' data. Once their 4G network is established I suspect the other networks will have to do something to try and retain customers.
We're on track to launch in Q4 and we will offer 4G at no extra charge. When we switch on our 4G network well over a million of our customers will already have a 4G device so they will get automatic and hassle-free access in 4G areas without the need to change plans or sim cards. Everyone on Three with a 4G device will be able to enjoy our 4G services as we roll out the network across the country to add capacity to what is already the UK's fastest 3G network.
Here in the UK we still have a long road ahead of us before most of the country has 4G coverage. But at least we are getting there.

So I have this tattoo. Sometimes, when my sleeve isn't rolled up quite high enough, it says COVEN.
Pretty sure that's the reason it caught the attention of some folks at an event last week. They came over to inquire. I revealed the full word and told them the meaning. They took a picture.
Fact is, the tattoo was inspired by the work of my favorite theologian, N.T. Wright (who coincidentally also inspired my second child's middle name). Tom Wright has done some amazing work tracing the theme of covenant in the New Testament, especially in Paul. And he's made some brave translations on this point, my personal favorites occurring in Romans 10 and 2 Corinthians 5. Here's a quick taste of the first from his Kingdom New Testament translation:
Moses writes, you see, about the covenant membership defined by the law, that "the person who performs the law's commands shall live in them." But the faith-based covenant membership puts it like this: "Don't say in your heart, Who shall go up to heaven?" (in other words, to bring the Messiah down), "or, Who shall go down into the depths?" (in other words, to bring the Messiah up from the dead). But what does it say? "The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart" (that is, the word of faith which we proclaim); because if you profess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Why? Because the way to covenant membership is by believing with the heart, and the way to salvation is by professing with the mouth.
Most translations have "righteousness," but Wright sees "covenant membership" instead. Why is that important, you ask? Well, it's important because salvation is so often cast in purely moral or legal terms, with a heavy emphasis on the moral and legal guilt of every individual in contrast to God's moral and legal "righteousness" as Judge. The cross then becomes all about dealing with our individual moral and legal guilt.
But if salvation is really wrapped up in the story of covenant, then we realize that the issue is not our individual moral and legal guilt before an angry Judge, but rather how an unfaithful people can become the people of God. In other words, Paul's primary concern is how we become covenant members of the new people of God. The old way was based on cultural codes and laws, but the new way is entirely faith-based.
The beauty of salvation in the Messiah (another one of Wright's significant translations) is that it is God's faithfulness to his own covenant to rescue his people – which faithfulness was enacted through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus – that allows for all us unfaithful ones to be rightly called the covenant people of God. And this door to covenant membership is no longer exclusive to one culture group (Israel) but to all, as Paul goes on to say, without distinction. Faith equalizes what the old law codes made unequal.
Think about the implications for all the culture groups that the church so often excludes today. Think about all the religious inequality at work. If salvation is about God's faithfulness to open the door of covenant membership to all kinds of people, then that is truly good news for the marginalized, underprivileged, and oppressed people in our world. It is especially good news for the nonreligious outsiders, the dehumanized second-class citizens whom the Jesus of the New Testament (along with Paul, the apostle to the outsiders) seemed to pursue so relentlessly.
Here's the other favorite covenant passage from Wright:
It all comes from God. He reconciled us to himself through the Messiah, and he gave us the ministry of reconciliation. This is how it came about: God was reconciling the world to himself in the Messiah, not counting their transgressions against them, and entrusting us with the message of reconciliation. So we are ambassadors, speaking on behalf of the Messiah, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore people on the Messiah's behalf to be reconciled to God. The Messiah did not know sin, but God made him to be sin on our behalf, so that in him we might embody God's faithfulness to the covenant.
Here, Wright singlehandedly dismantles the prized passage of the neo-reformed preacher, who wants to see a Great Exchange – our sin for Christ's moral and legal "righteousness" – in this little grouping of verses. Unfortunately, it's just not there (and makes no sense in the context). Indeed, what Paul is preaching here is not a neo-reformed gospel for morally and legally guilty individuals, but a missional gospel for people estranged from the covenant community. Paul is preaching a kind of hospitality, a kind of welcome, a kind of surprising openness to the world of outsiders previously cut off from the Old Covenant God and his people.
My tattoo is really about this. I want my life to be all about embodying God's faithfulness to the covenant. Which means, I want to be about the missional work of opening up the covenant to those on the outside, as the embodiment of God's own faithfulness to his own covenant to rescue the whole world through the Messiah. I want it to be as if God is saying through my own life, "Come on in. Be reconciled. You are welcome."
To make Christian salvation all about covenant is simply to say that through the Messiah the relational God is made known.
Not the angry law-obsessed Judge.
But the patient, welcoming Father who has at last made good on his promise to make a way.
For everyone.
Let's embody that for a change.

ROCKINGHAM, N.C. (AP) -- Kyle Larson picked up his first NASCAR national series win by holding off Joey Logano on the final restart of the Truck Series race at Rockingham Speedway.
Logano was closing in on Larson when a collision between Timothy Peters and Ryan Sieg brought out the caution with two laps remaining.
Logano had fresher tires and Larson was thought to be a sitting duck for the green-white-checkered restart. Instead, Logano misjudged Larson's start and Larson drove away to the win after leading 187 laps.
Logano was second after flying to the race from Saturday's night's fifth-place finish at Texas.
Brendan Gaughan was third and was followed by Johnny Sauter, and Chase Elliott.
NASCAR asked to see Ron Hornaday Jr. after the race to discuss his wrecking Darrell Wallace Jr. under caution.

Assateague State Park Project Puts Hold on Campsite Reservations for 2015
Assateague State Park is holding off on accepting reservations for the 2015 camping season until it has a more finite schedule for a proposed winter project. The park will announce an update on the project's status and designate an opening date on its website October 6. Staff will not have any further information until this time.
The proposed Dune Realignment Project aims to reduce future storm impacts to the park by relocating certain sites and amenities. The Maryland Park Service anticipates that most or all of the campsites will be available for reservation at the start of the 2015 season, which begins in late April, but wants to ensure all work will be complete before booking guests.
"As a barrier island, Assateague is a dynamic system that is always on the move," said Park Manager Angela Baldwin. "The Maryland Park Service is working to protect the resources of the island while still providing the best access to the park for our visitors to enjoy. We appreciate everyone's patience as we work to get this significant project up and running."
The proposed project would relocate the southern portion of the dune approximately 115 feet to the west, also moving many of the camping loops and pads, and rerouting campground roads. The total number of campsites would remain at 350. The new alignment would continue northward and merge into the existing alignment between A and B loops. Once the sites are realigned, fencing, clay and dune grasses would be installed.
The update, including a final map with the new numbering system and site locations, will be posted October 6, 2014 to dnr2.maryland.gov/publiclands/Pages/eastern/assateague.aspx. Customers can call or go online to schedule their reservations on or after this date.

How to Tighten Your Lips
Wrinkles, fine lines and loose skin are a natural part of aging -- and the face and mouth area, along with the neck, hands and forearms are common problem areas due to sun exposure. While there are surgical treatments that may help, there are also some basic facial exercises that can help to stretch and strengthen muscles in your face and tighten the skin around your face and lips.
Video of the Day
Step 1
Open your mouth as wide as possible without causing discomfort in your jaw and face. Push your lips out from your body as far as possible and make an "O" shape with your mouth. You should feel a stretch in your lips and cheeks when you are doing the exercise properly. Hold the position for five seconds then relax. Take a breath and repeat the exercise as desired.
Step 2
Sit in a chair with a sturdy back and tilt your head back to look up toward the ceiling, keeping your back straight against the chair. Quickly purse your lips outward, holding the position for five seconds and then widen your mouth as much as possible without causing any discomfort, holding the position for an additional five seconds. Repeat the exercise quickly for three sets of 12 repetitions or more if you wish.
Step 3
Wash your hands with hot water and antibacterial soap to remove any germs. Place a single fingertip against both of your lips. Extend your upper lip above your fingernail and hold the position for approximately five seconds before relaxing, then extend your lower lip beneath your finger and hold the position for five seconds. Take a breath and repeat the exercise.
