Appendix A AGENDA ITEM #3 DEPARTMENT OF THE ENVIRONMENT REPORT Deputy City Librarian Paul Underwood introduced Mr. Mark Palmer, Green Building Coordinator for the Department of the Environment, who then presented a highly detailed overview of the city's "Green Buildings" program (copy attached). Public comment: An anonymous member of the public commented that the explanatory documents were not clear. This individual noted that while green buildings were important this person was concerned about the partnering involved, observing that such could be either symbiotic or parasitic. Mr. Ed Regan disagreed with some points in the presentation, noting his opposition to the replacement of Laguna Honda Hospital and commenting that water should be used rather than saved. Mr. Peter Warfield expressed concern that with the re-ordering of the agenda and the lack of availability of materials prior to the meeting that the issues were difficult to follow. Mr. Warfield requested that materials to be presented be made available to the public in advance. Commission comment: Commissioner Bautista pointed out the importance and value of using solar power resources on as many of the library's facilities as possible. President Higueras called his fellow Commissioners' attention to the requirement that all new city buildings be energy efficient, and that the Branch Bond Program should try to maximize environmental sensitivity and energy efficiency of all of the projects. In response to questions by Vice President Steiman and Commissioner Chin, Mr. Palmer explained the criteria for solar power sites and, while noting that there could be some up front costs, pointed out the significant long-term cost savings of such facilities. Mr. Palmer additionally described the various categories of environmental recognition awards such as LEED Silver for various projects and noted the benefits of life cycle budgeting that includes operational savings credits when figuring construction costs. Mr. Palmer additionally called attention to having a LEED accredited professional advising on the design and construction of the library projects to maximize potential benefits and identify cost savings. AGENDA ITEM #4 BOND PROGRAM MANAGERS REPORT Ms. Marilyn Thompson, Branch Bond Program Manager gave an extensive report (copy attached) on recent bond program activities. Ms. Thompson recapped the Bond program Budget and Schedule and reported to the Commissioners likely changes related to creation of a Bond Program Reserve and an Art Enrichment Fund. The Bond Program Manager also informed the Commissioners that the 1st Quarterly Bond Program Report would come out in February and proposed to outline a likely Prop. 14 (State Library Bond) strategy at an upcoming meeting. Ms. Thompson discussed the second bond sale of $30 million proposed for the Fall of 2002 noting that the authorization process should be taken up in February. Ms. Thompson then gave a brief overview of projects. The City Librarian reported to the Commission on appointments to the Branch Library Bond Program advisory committees. Next Donna Corbeil, Chief of Branches outlined planning for branch library collections and services. Commissioner Bautista left the meeting at 5:21PM. Public comment: An anonymous member of the public expressed satisfaction with the detailed report but observed that it had not been properly described in the agenda. This individual further commented that the report was difficult to read, although they were glad of the detail reported. Mr. Ed Regan found the presentation fine and suggested that planning for new furnishings include provision for tables that allowed one to read standing. Mr. Peter Warfield commented that the type used in the report was too small, and expressed concern that as he had not received the documents in advance, understanding the great deal of material included was difficult. Mr. Warfield inquired as to where changes in various elements of the program would be identified and noted that the Systemwide Services Center seemed to now be a stand-alone facility. Mr. Warfield also commented that creation of space for books was not stated and that books could be cut. Commission comment: President Higueras observed that these reports offered a framework to develop a back-ground understanding of all of the various issues that would be involved in the Branch Bond Program. President Higueras noted in particular that the Branch Facilities Plan was just a guideline and that design professionals would do detailed physical surveys for each project using the previous survey information as a basis for their work. In response to questions by President Higueras, Ms. Corbeil noted that planning for future collection development would begin with a detailed inventory and review of the use of the existing collections. Deputy City Librarian Paul Underwood continued that each branch collection would be developed with careful consideration of the types of materials requested and used by its community. Mr. Underwood noted that extensive efforts would be made to gather neighborhood and community input into what materials were wanted branch collections. AGENDA ITEM #7 PUBLIC REVIEW PROCESS Marilyn Thompson, Bond Program Manager made a presentation of the outline of the proposed Public Review Process for Branch Library Bond Program projects (copy attached). Public comment: An anonymous member of the public found the presentation encouraging, noting its strong recognition of the importance of process. This person encouraged the Commissioners to seek, obtain, and listen to public input at every juncture of the process. Mr. Warfield commented that for the Commission to adopt this plan would be a disservice to the public as there had not been opportunity to review it before it was considered for approval. Mr. Warfield commented that he was glad of the planning but that it had been done without serious review. Mr. Warfield commented that all of the proposed public comment was being taken from selected publics and that there was a lack of open public comment. Mr. Warfield also questioned where open public comment would be sought, and concerning the specific details of the proposed forums. Mr. Warfield suggested that it would be helpful to document all public comment. Commission comment: Vice President Steiman suggested that special outreach be made to neighborhood associations and groups such as the PTA that already had extensive community contacts and could facilitate neighborhood participation in Branch Bond Program projects. In response to expressions of concern with the lack of specifically set monthly project reports by Vice President Steiman, President Higueras suggested that the model used in the oversight of the new Oceanview Branch Library might be considered for Bond Program projects. Vice President Steiman requested that public comments be brought to the Commission. President Higueras noted that this proposed process described the minimum outreach goals, that more would be sought, and that it could be modified if the needs of a specific project or the experience of carrying out Bond Program projects indicated changes were needed. President Higueras then discussed his concerns with maintaining a very high standard of design excellence on all of the Branch Library Bond Program projects. The Bond program Manager proposed to bring a discussion of design issues to the Commission at a February meeting. Chin expressed her support for gathering greater input and making the materials available for review. Motion: by Vice President Steiman, seconded by Commissioner Coulter for approval of the proposed public review process. Vice President Steiman requested that regular reports be made to the Commission concerning public input on proposed Branch Library Bond Program projects. Action: AYE 4-0 (Chin, Coulter, Higueras, and Steiman) AGENDA ITEM #5 BOND PROJECTS RESERVE Ms. Marilyn Thompson, the Bond Program Manager, outlined a proposal that sufficient funds be reserved from the various Bond Program projects to create an overall program reserve of $5,557,400 or 5% of the Bond Program Budget. Ms. Thompson suggested this would be a prudent reasonable funding reserve to address changes and unforeseen costs that could arise during the course of the design and construction of the branch libraries. Deputy City Librarian Paul Underwood then discussed how a library staff task force would be reviewing and considering various options to address any relocation costs that might be needed during the course of the Branch Library Bond program. Public comment: An anonymous member of the public noted the importance of maintaining budget reserves and expressed strong feeling concerning interim relocations of library services. This person commented that service interruptions and reductions were serious issues and that the Board of Supervisors was on record against this. This individual noted that relocations were expensive and highly political. Mr. Peter Warfield commented that he believed it prudent in general to provide for contingencies, but that he had not had sufficient time to consider this proposal that he noted took funds from each project. Mr. Warfield commented that this took 5% from each branch before the projects even began and that there had not been consideration if $5 million was enough. Commission comment: Commissioner Coulter observed that he did not want appropriate funding for Brooks Hall to be overlooked in the planning. In response to a question by Vice President Steiman, the Deputy City Librarian reported that any funds left over after completion of bond projects could be applied the needs of the remaining projects in the Bond Program or used for enhancements as was done at the Oceanview Branch Library. President Higueras pointed out that the Commission intended to do its best to make sure that bond funds were carefully expended to get the best projects possible for the funds available. Motion: by Vice President Steiman, seconded by Commissioner Chin for approval of the creation of the proposed 5% Bond Projects Reserve. Action: AYE 4-0 (Chin, Coulter, Higueras, and Steiman) AGENDA ITEM #6 ART ENRICHMENT RESERVE Marilyn Thompson, Bond Program Manager, outlined a proposal to consolidate the allocation of funds set aside for art enrichment in the Branch Library Bond Program in order to better facilitate the creation of meaningful and attractive works of art. Ms Thompson suggested that by consolidating these funds more than $300,000 would be made available to create art works for new libraries and Richmond Branchin the Bond Program. Ms. Thompson noted that using just the very small amounts dedicated for this purpose for each of several small projects would not allow for the creation of any meaningful art work, but a consolidated amount would make sufficient funds available to support an Art Enrichment Program to provide for the Bond Projects. Ms. Thompson noted that this approach had the support of the Arts Commission. Public comment: An anonymous member of the public commented that they were glad of the questions raised about this approach, noting the City mandate an art budget for all new construction and major renovation projects. This person commented that this requirement provides for creation of fine art in the public arena. This anonymous member of the public suggested that this approach could mean that some neighborhoods could get a larger share of the money for art and some less. This individual commented that this might not be legally allowed and would be very politically sensitive. Mr. Ed Regan opposed creation of the art fund suggesting that there were greater needs for books and more hours at branch libraries. Commission Comment: In response to questions by President Higueras, Ms. Thompson clarified that the details and specific allocations for these art enrichment projects would be outlined in a detailed Memorandum of Understanding between the Library and the Arts Commission that would be brought to the Commission for its review and approval. In response to questions by Commissioner Chin, Ms. Thompson discussed how the Art Enrichment Reserve could be used to make sure that each new branch library and Richmond Branch received a least one significant work of art. Commissioner Chin noted that art can be both costly and less so and suggested that ways be considered to involve kids in providing art for branch libraries. Ms. Thompson proposed that a plan for the Art Enrichment Program would be brought to the Commission for its review and approval at an upcoming meeting. Motion: by Commissioner Chin, seconded by Commissioner Coulter for approval of the creation of the proposed Art Enrichment Reserve. Action: AYE 4-0 (Chin, Coulter, Higueras, and Steiman) AGENDA ITEM #1 APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES OF THE MEETING OF DECEMBER 20, 2001 Public Comment: An anonymous member of the public expressed appreciation that the explanatory document for the Minutes was available and called attention to the fact that the public comment summary statements were not posted on the Library's website as required. This individual also commented that they had discovered that 6 of the 18 copies of the Minutes deposited in the City Archives in some cases also lacked inclusion of the public comment summary statements, a fact that was attributed to the Archives receiving multiple copies of the Minutes and not checking that they were retaining the most complete copies when discarding duplicates. This person also found the Minutes over summarized discussion rather than reporting it. Mr. Ed Regan found that his comments had been accurately reported. Mr. Peter Warfield commented that the Commission was failing to follow Roberts Rules of Order to take old business later in a meeting, and found that the Minutes contained inaccuracies in what was said. Mr. Warfield pointed to instances in which his reported comments were not reported as they were intended or that entire comments or events that occurred were omitted. Commission Comment: Motion: by Vice President Steiman, seconded by Commissioner Chin for approval of the Minutes of December 20, 2001. Action: AYE 4-0 (Chin, Coulter, Higueras, and Steiman) AGENDA ITEM #2 COMMISSION MEETING SCHEDULE FOR 2002 The Commission Secretary outlined the proposed schedule of regular meetings for 2002. The Secretary called the Commissioners attention to the unfortunate fact that due to having received mistaken information a meeting of the Commission was proposed for March 5th, Primary Election Day, contrary to previous practice. Public Comment: An anonymous member of the public commented that he had not seen the proposed schedule of meetings and questioned if they had been noticed. This individual also expressed concern that the Commission would meet on Election Day, noting previous objections to doing so. Mr. Ed Regan echoed concerns of the previous speaker but recommended approval of the proposed schedule. Mr. Regan also requested that meeting notices be mailed out. Mr. Peter Warfield urged the Commissioners to begin their meetings later in the day and not to meet on Election Day. Commission Comment: Motion: by Commissioner Coulter, seconded by Vice President Steiman for approval of the proposed meeting schedule for 2002. Action: AYE 4-0 (Chin, Coulter, Higueras, and Steiman) Agenda item #8 PUBLIC COMMENT Public Comment: An anonymous member of the public regretted the loss of a New Business item on the meeting agenda and then discussed their views concerning The Ugly American. This anonymous member of the public commented that this popularization of academic theory fictionalized about the damage done by people who think they are good and demonstrated that values are not related to money. Mr. Ed Regan requested expanded public service hours for the Main Library and all branches from 6AM until Midnight seven days a week. Mr. Regan additionally requested installation of an exterior fire escape on the Main Library and manually operated elevators. Agenda Item #9 ADJOURNMENT Public Comment: None offered Commission Comment: Motion: by Commissioner Coulter, seconded by Commissioner Chin that the meeting be adjourned. Action: AYE 4-0 (Chin, Coulter, Higueras, and Steiman) The meeting was adjourned at 6:53PM.

Terms & Conditions – Please Read…
So basically here is the process:
1. You see stuff you like on here
2. You write down what you want in the comments
3. I will email you your invoice to the email address you leave in the comments (you paypal one please!)
4. You pay the invoice
5. I package your stuff (will take me a day or two) then will send by recorded shipping only.
6. I will let everyone know when their stuff is sent. Bear in mind it's a busy time of year for post.
7. You get your stuff, hopefully like it and stuff your face with sweets.
If you haven't got your stuff after TWO WEEKS (UK) pop me an email to let me know. Quite often it's being held at your depot but they didn't bother to card you. If you haven't got your stuff after THREE WEEKS (international – but bear in mind I send recorded so should be much quicker but it is Christmas) then pop me an email and we will track it *TOGETHER*.
More info:
1. Please make sure you include your PAYPAL email address in the comment form so I can send you the invoice right away. I will be taking payments via Paypal only. You can buy with paypal without an account AS LONG AS YOU HAVE A DEBIT/CREDIT card. Please make sure a VALID POSTAL ADDRESS is included with your paypal payment, I don't have time to email everyone to get them to verify their home address. If you know that your paypal address is different to the delivery address, no problem, email me or say so in the comment – but let me know ASAP.
2. After invoicing items are held for 24 hours only before going to the next bidder. Items count as sold once payment is received.
3. Please do check swatches etc. etc. before ordering as there are no returns.
4. Please copy the whole line – number, product name and price into the comments if possible! Not just the numbers as it's easy to get these mixed up.
5. Please do not bulk 'reserve' items and decide later if you want it – you can't do that in Asda, you can't do that here
6. Shipping is based on TRUE costs plus packaging and handling fees – all shipping will be combined where there are multiple purchases
7. Items in the sale are my own, purchased in shops or online and some are unwanted gifts from my other half or family (no, they don't mind).
8. Items are sold as seen, all authentic, condition is as stated please ask if unsure.
I am selling off a lot of my make up – new, barely used stuff – because this is only a small fraction of what I have collected – it's a hobby for me and I buy a lot to review for the blog – I do need to clear space and I do need to get the collection under some control and just keep my favourites. Hence I am willing to let these items go for a fraction of the price I paid because I want them to be used by someone as I know I will not get round to it.
Shipping – Recorded/Tracked only and is calculated on a parcel to parcel basis. Bear in mind International Airmail Recorded is a minimum of around £6.40p these days (about $10). You can get a decent amount in there for that price though and it means the parcel is insured and comes with a tracking number – at this time of year I won't risk sending by standard post.
Remember, PLEASE USE YOUR PAYPAL EMAIL in the contact form, and Copy & Paste the WHOLE LINE of the item that you want into the comments.
Any questions just ask. I will respond as quickly as I can.

The First Localvores
Vermont's early Abenaki ate many of the same local foods we do today
Written onDecember 01 , 2010
I have always been fascinated by wild foods. When I was a kid growing up in Indiana we had a copy of Euell Gibbons' book Stalking the Wild Asparagus, and I remember how exciting it was to read about eating cattails, making acorn flour, and brewing sassafras tea. As I recall, the cattail stalks tasted a bit like mild turnips, the acorn flour was tannic and needed a lot of processing before being edible, and the tea tasted like something just this side of root beer. Little did I know as a kid that wild edibles such as cattails and acorns were just a couple of the foods historically gathered and consumed by the first people to inhabit the state I would one day call home. How could I have known then that I would one day be interested in learning about what foods the Abenaki ate and are still enjoying today? Through my exploration of Abenaki food traditions, I've since found that there are similarities between my own family food history and that of the Abenaki, such as the reliance my grandparents had on hunting and fishing for their meals, the excitement my brother, mother, and I had while foraging for wild morel mushrooms, catching fish and crayfish at our summer campground, and watching maple syrup being made from tapped trees.
I moved to Vermont to attend the New England Culinary Institute in 1997—just about the time that eating local entered the mainstream. Localvore groups were just beginning to sprout up around the state and reminded me of my earlier interest in eating wild and local foods. I wondered: how did eating local come about? Was this a new way to look at what and how we eat? Why did it seem so familiar? My own interest in local food began to shift from the hype and buzz of localvorism and eat local campaigns to exploring the foods of the people who first inhabited this land.
My cookbook collection took a new turn, as I began to seek out Native American ingredients, recipes, wild edible guides, and books. I found information about the influence of food from the Americas, plant medicines, and Native chefs. But many of the cookbooks I found focused more on the foods of the Plains people, the Midwest tribes, and those of the southwest.
What I did eventually learn about the Abenaki is that they moved with the seasons, traveling around to the different hunting, gathering, and gardening grounds as conditions and food became available. Some of this is still done today by Abenaki and non-Abenaki in Vermont who engage in maple sugaring in the spring, return to hunting camps in the fall, and tend gardens in the summer.
For the Abenaki, springtime was the time for tapping maple and birch trees to catch the precious sap in bark buckets. The sap would be boiled by placing hot rocks from the fire directly into the sap in earthenware pots, making sugar cakes and granular sugar—the best way the maple could be stored and transported during the rest of the year. Early season greens like wild onions, fiddleheads, and probably nettles were also gathered by the women, along with groundnuts, which provide valuable starch and protein in the early spring.
Todd Hebert is an Abenaki man who lives in central Vermont. He harvests wild edibles, medicinal herbs, and ceremonial plants, and spring often finds him outdoors in search of the first harvests. "First thing in the spring I get marsh marigolds," he told me. "The leaves are picked before the flower blooms, and they are washed and blanched three times to get some of the bitter out. Through the winter we store a lot inside us, and this helps us cleanse. We eat a meal or two of these.
"Next are the wild leeks. I never harvest more than a third. I never could anyway since there are so many! We destroy the plant when we harvest them, so we need to leave some for the future. I pick them as clean as I can and put them in freezer bags—they last us about a year. That's my onion and garlic flavoring for cooking. Shortly after leeks come the fiddleheads. Fiddleheads grow back so I don't have to be as careful with how many I pick."
In the past, springtime also thawed the ice on the waters, allowing the Abenaki men to fish for walleye, sucker, shad, alewives, and salmon. What was not eaten right away would be dried and saved to be consumed throughout the year. Late spring was also the time for planting corn, beans, squash, and pumpkins.
Summer was the time when the women gathered many wild fruits, including chokecherries, raspberries, strawberries, grapes, and blueberries. The women also tended the cultivated corn, beans, and squash. For the past few years, Todd has grown corn, beans, and squash in a traditional 'three sisters' garden." "The corn is a flint corn, mostly dried because it's easier to store," he says. "It is usually ground, and can be rehydrated or can be made into hominy. I ground some this year to use for food." This type of garden was successful among the Abenaki because the three plants provided a type of communal growing environment. The corn provided a support for the climbing beans, the beans re-introduced valuable nitrogen back to the soil, and the prickly squash vines shaded out weeds and deterred predators from venturing into the maze of foliage.
Todd also told me that "spacing is important, and you can grow a lot in a small area. There was no fertilizer back then, only plants to rely on, like the nitrogen from the beans. I use comfrey tea—I set comfrey and water in buckets, set them out in the sun and they get nice and green, and feed the garden that way."
Late summer brought the Abenaki people together again for the harvest. Corn and beans were picked, along with other medicinal, traded, and ceremonial plants like herbs, sweetgrass, tobacco, and plants used for dyes. It was also a time when the women gathered nuts such as black walnuts, beechnuts, and chestnuts. Late season berries and plant foods like sumac were also harvested and prepared for storage.
In the fall, field corn was processed by the women, who used a mortar to pound it into a coarse meal. Other wild nuts, such as butternuts, were harvested, and eel were caught, along with other fish. These were preserved and stored with the earlier harvested berries and meats. Much of this food was stored in baskets inside pits lined with bark for use during the winter. Fall also was another season when the men would hunt, sometimes using dogs to pursue deer, moose, and other wild game.
In the cold winter months, the families would spend much of their time inside their dwellings, eating the cured meats and dried berries they had stored in the bark-lined pits. Tools were attended to, skins were processed, games were played, and storytelling passed the time through the sharing of life's important lessons and the history of the people. Snowshoes allowed the men to get out and hunt for deer and moose and gave them an advantage by allowing them to travel on top of the deep snow whereas the animals' legs poked through it and slowed them down.
After looking into this history, I wanted to find out more about what the Abenaki are eating today, so I sent e-mails to Abenaki organizations and ended up talking with two fascinating women.
Melody Walker Brook works at UVM and grew up learning about her Abenaki heritage. She is an Abenaki activist and educator, and enthusiastically offered me insight into the food that her family eats. "Our foods are very simple," she said. "When I had my wedding I wanted traditional foods. I had wild rice served in pumpkins, frog legs, venison, fish, fish soup, rabbit, turkey with whole cranberries, journeycake, and maple treats." She said that the Abenaki often make stews that have game, vegetables, and maybe onions. She explained that journeycake is made from hominy pounded to make a flour and mixed with maple sugar or syrup, oil, cranberries, and sometimes nuts. It is cooked on the fire, on a hot rock, or in an oven. Melody also said that one of her all-time favorites is frog legs—"swamp chicken, as we like to call them"—which are coated with cornmeal, salt, and pepper, and then fried. Her family also used to eat quite a bit of fish chowder with corn. "Pike is sort of sweet and not really good for fillets, so we always tried to make chowder when we got a pike." And they hunted a lot. "Even the squirrels weren't safe sometimes."
I also spoke with Judy Dow, a master Abenaki basket maker living in Essex Junction, who shares indigenous knowledge with educators, children, and others. She also passed along some family favorites, including a fish dish. "My mother makes a mean fish chowder! Always has. There was no milk in it—most of us were lactose intolerant." She has never made it herself, but recalls it has onions, bacon, potatoes, tomatoes, and fish. "We had big perch frys all the time. My father would go fishing and bring back 10 dozen perch—it was nothing. My grandfather caught eels and brought them to the old ladies down the road. My mother didn't want them in the house. We also had rabbit, squirrel, and deer. But not much deer, my father wasn't so good at that." Living "10 feet from the lake" also meant they used to do a lot of ice fishing.
Judy also told me that the weekend before Thanksgiving her husband invites the Boy Scouts over to cook a big meal outside, all in dutch ovens. "We cook everything in dutch ovens. We lose our power a lot…and we sit out on the driveway and cook with our dutch ovens. You can cook anything in them, even cake!" One of the Boy Scouts' favorites is wild rice and berries. "I've been married 37 years and I have been making the wild rice and berries for as long as I can remember. I don't even know where the recipe came from. It's a simple recipe. You take wild rice and twice the amount of water you usually use for rice, add one bag of cranberries, and cook it until it's done. Then you add raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, sometimes nuts…and then pour maple syrup in to sweeten it. It's so good!"
Judy's enthusiasm was contagious, and I shared some of my own family-food experiences. She even invited me to come to their Thanksgiving feast this year. After I admitted my inexperience in using a dutch oven, she said I could try my hand at it if I wanted to.
In talking with these two women, I realized how similar some of their family meals were to mine. Fish, rabbit, stews, some wild edible plants, and cooking outside not only echoed the ways of the Abenaki then and now but also brought back sweet memories of my childhood and extended family. I look forward to meeting Judy and her friends and family, and to seeing what an Abenaki feast is all about.

Who Wants To Be 'Too‐Big‐To‐Fail'?
I've argued that the Dodd-Frank financial reform bill does not end "too-big-to-fail", that is the belief that certain companies are implicitly backed by the government because policy-makers are unlikely to let said institutions actually fail. By naming some companies as "systemically important" -- as required by Dodd-Frank -- the government is actually sending a signal as to who is likely to be bailed out.
As evidenced by regulators' behavior during the financial crisis, the prime beneficiaries would be the creditors of these companies, as even when shareholders and management suffered, creditors generally did not. This should allow such firms to borrow at a cost lower than firms not deemed systemically important.
Given this funding advantage, it would seem natural that firms would want to be included as systemically important. Sure they might be examined by bank regulators more often, but that's hardly a large cost compared to the funding advantage.
Congressman Frank has attempted to refute that there are any benefits from being deemed "systemically important" by the fact that "so many financial institutions have lobbied against being designated in this way." What his argument misses, or chooses to ignore, is that these benefits are not the same for all institutions. It is companies that rely heavily on debt market financing, such as banks, that have the most to gain. And under Dodd-Frank, the largest banks are automatically included. They have no opportunity to lobby to be in or out. The firms that are not automatically in, the most important of which are insurance companies, do not fund themselves primarily via the debt markets. Insurance companies get most of their funding from the premiums paid by their policyholders. And those premiums must be sufficient to cover expected losses, which have little to do with funding costs in the debt markets. Other non-bank financial companies, such as hedge funds and private equity, do not gain to the same extent that banks do because they have traditionally been a lot less leveraged than banks.
So the answer to Mr. Frank's point is that those who have the most to gain from being "systemically important" are already included, those with the least the gain are the very ones lobbying against being included. The real perversity is that once they are included, they will have a strong incentive to shift their business models toward more debt funding, making them riskier and more likely to fail (debt markets are far more fickle than insurance policy-holders). We are left relying solely on the judgment of the regulators to avoid this outcome, the same regulators who were asleep at the wheel as the housing bubble expanded.

Shooting in South Vidor
UPDATE: Signed statement from shooter details altercation that led to a Vidor man's death.
One man is dead and a woman in custody on charges of murder murder after a shooting that took place Wednesday, Nov. 28, on Terry Road in Vidor. According to the Orange County Sheriff's Office (OCSO), Julia Rhoton Andrews, 58, of Vidor was arrested after confessing to investigators she shot and killed Randy Peddy, 42, also from Vidor.
Orange County Sheriff's deputies responded to a call regarding a disturbance at a residence in the 1400 block of Terry Road at about 9:45 p.m. Nov. 28. While the sheriff's dispatcher was on the phone with the caller, the caller reported that shots could be heard outside the residence. When deputies arrived at the scene, they observed a white male "lying lifeless in the yard of the residence," according to the news release. Emergency medical personnel with Acadian Ambulance and the Vidor Fire Department responded to the scene and determined Peddy was deceased.
The Orange County Homicide Investigation Team went to the residence and questioned witnesses there, including Andrews, the shooter. Precinct 4 Justice of the Peace Judge Rodney Price declared Peddy dead and ordered an autopsy. The victim was transported to the Jefferson County Morgue for examination.
Andrews was taken to the OCSO where she was questioned further regarding the incident. During the interview, she told officers she and the deceased had a verbal and physical altercation during which she shot and killed Peddy. According to the probable cause affidavit for the arrest of Andrews completed by OCSO Detective Kevin Tate, Patrol Deputy Donnie Helton and other deputies initially responded to the scene of the shooting. Upon his arrival, Deputy Helton observed Peddy's limp body on the ground at the residence. At that time, paramedics arrived and determined Peddy was deceased.
Detective Tate stated in the affidavit that Andrews prepared a written statement of her account of the events leading up to Peddy's death. In the statement, she indicated she and Peddy argued and then he stood on top of her car "causing damage to it." She then pulled him by his feet causing him to fall onto the hood of the vehicle. She claimed it was then that Peddy physically assaulted her. She stated that following the physical altercation she went inside her home, locked the door and retrieved a loaded .22 caliber rifle. She then unlocked the front door and walked back outside onto her front porch. Peddy was still standing around "where she had left him when she entered her home." She told officers she fired a single shot from the rifle to the left of Peddy. According to Andrews, Peddy opened his shirt and said, "Go ahead and shoot me."Andrews told investigators she then fired another shot, this time into Peddy's chest. She stated that he fell to the ground and she went back into the house, placing the rifle in its original location. After replacing the rifle, she told the other two residents that she had just shot Peddy.
Dr. Robert E. Lyon, forensic pathologist at the Jefferson County Forensic Center, performed the autopsy on Peddy the day after the shooting. The preliminary autopsy report indicated the cause of death was a gunshot wound that punctured the aortic valve and the right ventricle of the victim's heart. The death was ruled a homicide.
Andrews was arrested for murder and is being held at the Orange County Correctional Facility on a $250,000 bond. What started the argument is unclear, but OCSO Sgt. Chad Hogan said Peddy was Andrews' daughter's boyfriend.
"From what we gather, (Peddy) was intoxicated," Hogan said. "He became very upset when he was told the police were being called."
Hogan said the decision to arrest Andrews for murder was made by the Orange County District Attorney's Office. When asked why the shooting was not deemed self-defense considering the fact Peddy was on Andrews' property and she claimed there was a physical altercation, Hogan replied, "I was kind of surprised myself."
Orange County District Attorney John Kimbrough was not available for comment. The case is still being investigated.

Schools are constantly ranked on everything from the beauty of their campuses to their party scenes, but rarely on their students' intelligence.
Exclusively for Business Insider, Dr. Jonathan Wai, a Duke University Talent Identification Program research scientist and psychologist, computed a new ranking of America's colleges and universities based purely on smarts, as shown by the student body's average scores on standardized tests.
Though these tests are often criticized, research shows that both the SAT and ACT are excellent measures of general cognitive ability, and the scores of a school's student body give an accurate snapshot of their abilities.
Cognitive training company Lumosity took a crack at this last year, ranking more than 400 schools based on students' performance on brain-training games. There were a couple of problems with its list, however, as they only had data available from students who played the games, meaning some of the smartest schools got ignored, and there is no peer-reviewed research showing their games are a reliable and valid measure of smarts.
Now, for the first time, we present the real smartest colleges in America. (Read more about our methodology and reasoning here.)

These rankings are based on the average of each school's reported SAT scores (math plus verbal) and ACT scores (converted into equivalent SAT scores) of first-year, degree-seeking students in 2012 as reported to U.S. News. See the explanation of our methodology and reasoning here. For comparison, we've included U.S. News' overall rankings (which split universities and colleges) and Luminosity's ratings based on brain games.

I have originally intended to write only one post on hair products, hair issues, and basically how to make the best out of your hair. After a quick survey on twitter, I've been bombarded by hair problems that made me realise that I'd have to do more than one post (in fear of boring you to death by squeezing it all into one!) So without further ado, here's part one.
(You could stop giggling now, you'd be surprised at how many people still don't do it right!)
Step 1 – Wet hair (I'm cringing because it's so obvious!!) The water temperature should not be too hot. ALWAYS try to use a shower head, you'll struggle to get your hair squeaky clean washing your hair in a bath. (Bad hair day cause #1!)
Step 2 – Pour a SMALL amount (50p size for medium length) of shampoo in to your palm, work it through your hands like a moisturiser, then apply it EVENLY through your hair and scalp, using your fingers to work it through in circular motions.
Step 3 – Rinse, and repeat step 2. This is important – the first shampoo gets the dirt out, the second wash makes the shampoo's active ingredients work. You'll also notice that if you use small amounts twice, you'll do better than using one big blob.
Step 4 – Rinse, and TOWEL DRY your hair by blotting – not rubbing – with a towel. This step is often left out, but you'll notice the difference, as the conditioner will now be less diluted when applies.
Step 5 – Work a small amount (£1 size for medium length hair) of conditioner through your hands, and apply it to the midlengths and ends ONLY. Your scalp produces its own oils, what I normally suggest to clients is to apply conditioner on the 'ponytail' part of the hair. You might see a massive change in flat hair if you do it this way! You could also gently run a comb through your hair, as the conditioner will make it easier to comb. Try to leave it on for a few minutes. This would also be the time you would use a hair mask/treatment once a week, or as suggested by your stylist.
Step 6 – Rinse out thoroughly, until you feel that squeaky clean feeling. Try to do the final rinse with cooler water for extra shine. Then towel dry again by blotting your hair with a towel. For longer hair, try gently squeezing the hair with the towel. I flinch whenever I see people vigorously rubbing their hair! Your hair is at its most vulnerable when it's wet, and rubbing it is just going to damage it.
It sounds like a lot of effort, but soon it will become second nature. I would love to hear your thoughts and experiences after trying this!
Now I need your input. Feel free to comment on topics you'd like me to blog about. I'm planning to cover common problems, styling tips, product suggestions, but it's great to hear what people really struggle with!

Here's my problem: I know what it is I need to do for the project. I have no idea how to implement this using code. We have to create a Connect Four game and I know that I am going to need the Scanner class for imputs, arrays, and an enum class. The thing is, how do I go about coding this? When it comes to methods, I know what I need to do, I just don't know how to do it. Any tips on how to turn my ideas into code?
For reference this is the project. http://www.csee.umbc.edu/courses/und...ects/project2/

My day began like any other day. After a good breakfast and a short nap, I dressed in new clothes and got ready for my daily walk. The weather was sunny and I was happy during the stroll in the fresh air. Suddenly I realized that I was on a different route. I wondered if it was one of those spontaneous outings that seemed to happen over the weekends but before I could wonder anymore, I came to a halt and to my intense surprise, was undressed. I was then measured (I tried to cheat by stretching my legs and toes) and weighed (was I looking too chubby wearing just my diaper?).
For a while, amma was playing with me and I didn't understand why we bothered to come all the way to play when I had a perfectly good playpen at home ! Then she introduced me to someone else who looked a lot like amma – dark curly hair, similar build and complexion. Maybe this is one of my aunts. She smiled at me sweetly and tickled me. I was laughing, I turned and looked at amma. She looked worried. I was confused, amma usually smiles when I laugh. Then the lady started massaging my legs, uhhh…that felt nice. Just as I was getting comfortable enough, I felt a sharp sting and was shocked ! I thought it would stop, but it became more and more painful and I started screeching.
I turned and looked at amma again. Tears were streaming down her cheeks. I was even more confused. Why wasn't she doing anything to stop the lady from hurting me ?! Then the pain stopped and I was beginning to relax, when I felt a sting on my other thigh. Now the pain was unbearable and I was screaming again. More tears from amma, but she still wasn't stopping the lady. Why, amma, why ?!
Amma then hugged me with her tear stained t-shirt. I felt her warmth and it was comforting. She kissed me, patted me down my back and hugged me again, even more tightly. She then shook hands with the lady. The lady patted amma on her shoulder and said something I didn't understand. Then I got dressed and we went home. Amma didn't look happy, she grumbled to thatha and paati. She then called appa and grumbled again. I heard her but didn't quite understand what she meant when she said ''Oh…God, what are these doctors doing in the name of vaccination, giving a one month old baby 2 big fat injections ?! Can they not with all the science and technology figure out a painless way?!''
When I grow up, I should ask her to explain.

Writer, documentarian, and Londoner Iain Sinclair, whose archive resides at the Ransom Center, has written a new book, American Smoke: Journeys to the End of the Light. Sinclair visited The University of Texas at Austin in 2010 while preparing for his previous project, Ghost Milk: Recent Adventures Among the Future Ruins of London on the Eve of the Olympics (2012).
American Smoke records Sinclair's personal pilgrimage from Great Britain to the United States, the home of his literary heroes of the Beat Generation. Travelling from Hackney, London, to Gloucester, Massachusetts, the writer hoped to discover and understand the spirit of the poets and novelists who inspired his youth: Charles Olson, Garry Snyder, William Boroughs, Jack Kerouac, and Dylan Thomas, to name a few.
The story opens with the writer's identification of time, place, and emotion: "It was the season of autumn ghosts, a dampness in the soul. 2011 and London had lost its savour. A good step beyond midway through my dark wood of the world, I came to America, hoping to reconnect with the heroes of my youth. The largest, the most light-occulting of all the giants, that earlier race, was Charles Olson: poet, scholar, and last rector of Black Mountain College."
The scope of American Smoke extends beyond Charles Olson and Sinclair himself. Not only a memoir of his journey in the United States, the book is also a portrait of a former generation of Americans and an exploration of their legacy today.
To celebrate the release of American Smoke: Journeys to the End of the Light, the Ransom Center will be giving away a signed copy of Sinclair's book Hackney, That Rose-Red Empire: A Confidential Report. To be eligible to win, tweet a link to this blog post and mention @ransomcenter. If you're not on Twitter, send an email to hrcgiveaway(at)gmail.com with "Iain Sinclair" in the subject line. All Tweets and emails must be sent by midnight CST tonight, and winners will be drawn and notified tomorrow, May 2 [Update: The winner has been chosen and notified.]

Indonesian women, particularly on the island of Java, are exceptionally beautiful. They tend towards the very feminine side, with lovely skin, are not too tall, and have knock-out smiles. There's plenty of plus on that side of things. Foto cewek Bugil.
If wer'e to be honest we have to recognise that many men are interested in a woman who will take care of him, do the housework without complaint, and take care of other matters similarly without much bother. Your average Indonesian girl often fits the bill in this respect, certainly more than your average western woman, the less said about them the better.
On the other hand going out with Indonesian women in a romantic way can have many mysterious pitfalls and advice is herewith offered. Foto Cewek Telanjang.
Some women here are clearly only interested in money. Some men are unbothered by this. Others of the female variety, it has to be said, can, once we get to know them very well, come across as practically insane, hysterically emotional, scheming, over-possessive, inclined to, usually fake, attempts at self-harm in order to get their way. As I said, not for the faint-hearted.

Helping our military personnel fight identity theft
Active duty military personnel need to pay special attention to protecting their identities since they may be subject to long periods of time where their identity could be used without their knowledge. Here are some proactive tips to provide guidance before, during, and after you or your loved one has been deployed.
Before Deployment
Place an active-duty alert on your credit report by calling one of the three nationwide consumer reporting companies: Equifax, Experian or TransUnion.
Opt out of marketing lists. Permanently remove your name from the pre-approved mail offer lists by calling 888.5OPT.OUT (888.567.8688) or visit www.optoutprescreen.com
Review your credit report. It is a good idea to obtain a copy of your credit report prior to your deployment in order to preserve a snapshot of your credit profile. In addition, if any suspicious activity exists, it provides you an opportunity to resolve the situation before you are deployed and communications become more difficult. You can obtain a free copy of all three credit reports once a year by visiting www.annualcreditreport.com
Choose your Power of Attorney carefully. Often it may become necessary to assign a Power of Attorney (POA) to handle your affairs while you are away. A POA will allow your named representative to act on your behalf; ensure this person is known and can be trusted.
Know your rights. The Service Members Civil Relief Act (SCRA) provides active duty members certain financial protections connected to housing, interest rates, cell phone contracts, court judgments, and more. It is important to know these protections to preserve your good name and credit while you are serving.
During Deployment
Safeguard your military ID. Never lend your credit cards or account information to anyone else. Familiar fraud accounts for more than one-third of all identity theft cases. Sharing debit/credit cards, passwords, and account access tools can often lead to issues when someone you trust makes a poor decision.
Keep your personal information in a secure place, especially if you live in a barracks or with roommates. Keep it with you or lock it up at all times to prevent anyone from accessing it.
Don't let mail pile up unattended. If you can't collect it, use a mail stop or post office box, or have someone you trust hold your mail while you're away.
After Deployment
Review your credit report. Upon your return you should obtain your free copy of all three credit reports by visiting www.annualcreditreport.com to ensure that no suspicious or unauthorized activity has occurred since your departure.
Remove your active-duty alert on your credit report. Once you are preparing to use your credit again, you should remove the active-duty alert from your credit profile by contacting one of the three nationwide consumer reporting companies: Equifax, Experian or TransUnion. If you have discovered unusual or fraudulent activity, you can replace the military alert with a 90 day fraud alert, a seven year fraud alert, or a security freeze depending on the severity of your situation.
Terminate Power of Attorneys. As soon as you are able to take over your financial affairs again you should revoke any Power of Attorney documents.
Know your rights. If you encountered any financial difficulties, including issues surrounding housing, interest rates, judgments, etc., be sure to check your Service Members Civil Relief Act (SCRA) rights. Remember, active duty service members have certain protections under the SCRA, even for a period of time after they return.
