Unloading Your Home during a Foreclosure
If you can't save your home during an impending foreclosure process or sell it for a profit or to break even, then unloading your home may be your best option — cut your losses, load up your family and your belongings, and hit the road, Jack.
Following are some ways to ditch your home when all else fails:
Deeding the house to your bank in lieu of foreclosure: Your bank may agree to forgive your debt in exchange for the deed to your home and the keys. You move on without the drama, time, money, and hassle of foreclosure, and the bank gets the property without costly attorney fees and having to wait several weeks or months to place the home on the market.
When offering a deed in lieu of foreclosure, make sure the bank provides you with a formal release of all obligations for repaying the debt. Otherwise, the bank may be able to file for a deficiency judgment if the house sells for less than what you owe on it; you're then responsible for paying the difference. Read the agreement and have your attorney review it and explain it to you before you sign anything.
Selling the house to an investor: If you can't possibly afford to rehab your home to bring it up to market standards and then sell it for a profit, an investor may be able to. An investor can often negotiate a short sale with your creditor that the creditor is unwilling to offer you. An investor may even be able to give you a little money to cover your moving expenses. Before pursuing this option, consult a real estate agent or an attorney with experience in foreclosure; you don't want to sell your home for pennies on the dollar if you can sell it for a profit and keep the cash yourself.
Moving out and leaving the keys: What should you do if you can't sell your home (even to an investor), the bank won't accept a deed in lieu of foreclosure, and you have no other options? Your best option may be to live in your home for as long as the law allows and save your money for the eventual move. In areas that have a lengthy redemption period, you can squirrel away a lot of cash over the course of several months.
You can often score some additional cash by negotiating a cash-for-keys deal with your bank or the investor who purchases your property. You agree to vacate the premises on a certain date without trashing the place, and the bank or investor agrees to pay you for moving out early. You usually get a percentage now and the rest when you move out.

Their sensitive snouts are literally life-savers. Mine detection dogs, or MDDs, are specially trained canines that sniff out landmines.
The Marshall Legacy Institute (MLI) is an Arlington-based nonprofit that trains and sends MDDs to war-torn countries like Iraq and Afghanistan.
"We have 183 dogs working in 11 different counties," says Tycie Horsley, who is the development director at MLI.
The dogs are mainly German Shepherds or Belgian Shepherd dogs, and they train for about six months in Texas or Bosnia. However, training and taking care of MDDs does not come at a low price. Horsley says it costs $25,000 to sponsor just one dog.
The dogs have a heightened sense of smell, which allows them to quickly and safely sniff out explosives. In fact, MDDs can smell and detect mines 30 times faster than other demining tools.
"So many mines are made without any sort of metal, so metal detectors are useless," Horsley explains.
In 2012, the institute's MMDs searched and cleared almost 2 million square miles of land, saving tens of thousands of lives. So far, MLI has yet to have a dog killed or injured by landmines.
"They're very good at what they do," Horsley says. "They're just able to save lives."
The canines are not just mine detection dogs, they are also goodwill ambassadors. Horsley says through CHAMPS (Children Against Mines Program), American children learn about the problem of landmines abroad. From the program, 28 dogs have been sponsored by children in the U.S.
"It's a great way to link-up kids here with kids in countries like Iraq and Afghanistan. They use things like Skype and Yahoo Messenger. They actually talk to each other and learn about each other's cultures," says Horsley, who adds that the children also learn about the devastating impact of landmines.
According to Horsley, American kids have raised money through bake sales and walkathons to provide prosthetic limbs and other medical care for the injured kids.
The dogs retire after working for six-to-eight years. In most situations, the handler adopts the dog. If for some reason, the adoption is not possible, Horsley says the dogs are brought back to the U.S. where they are adopted.

Chris Sale, White Sox agree to a five-year deal
GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) - The Chicago White Sox say they have agreed on a five-year, $32.5 million contract with left-handed starter Chris Sale.
The 23-year-old went 17-8 with a 3.05 EA and 192 strikeouts in his first season a starter. He was on the American League All-Star team and finished sixth in the Cy Young voting.
Chicago general manager Rich Hahn says the team is "thrilled to be able to reward Chris for his accomplishments," and said that Sale is one of the best young starters in the AL.
Sale will receive $850,000 in 2013, $3.5 million in 2014, $6.0 million in 2015, $9.15 million in 2016 and $12 million in 2017. The team holds options for 2018 ($12.5) and 2019 ($13.5). There is $1 million buyout on both team options.

Marmol's role in doubt after Cubs lose heartbreaker
Closer allows pair of homers in ninth after offense comes alive
ATLANTA -- It's only five games into the season, but Carlos Marmol may have lost his job as the Cubs' closer.
B.J. Upton led off the ninth with a game-tying home run off Marmol and his brother, Justin, followed one out later with a walk-off blast, his second homer of the game and fifth of the season, to lift the Braves to a 6-5 victory on Saturday night over the Cubs at Turner Field.
Cubs manager Dale Sveum said they would discuss Marmol's role on the team, and may consider using Shawn Camp or James Russell as closer. Set-up pitcher Kyuji Fujikawa didn't have his split-finger pitch, and was roughed up as well, giving up three runs on four hits in the eighth inning, as the Braves closed within 5-4.
Marmol now has served up five runs on six hits over 1 2/3 innings in three games for a 27.00 ERA.
"We're definitely going to talk about it now," Sveum said about Marmol's situation. "Fujikawa struggled, too. You've got Camp and Russell, who seem to be pretty efficient when they pitch. They've never had to do the last three outs of the game."
It's tough to pinpoint Marmol's problems.
"I don't know whether it's mechanical, the arm angle or what," Sveum said. "When he throws strikes, he's getting hit now, too."
Trailing 5-4 in the ninth against Marmol, B.J. Upton launched a 3-1 pitch to straightaway center. After Jason Heyward flew out, Justin, who had homered in the first, drove a 1-2 pitch to center for the game-winner. This was the first time the brothers have homered in the same game with the Braves, and the 25th time in baseball history that brother teammates have connected in the same game.
Marmol said the problem was locating his pitches.
"I tried to do my best," Marmol said. "I'm trying. I'm trying to do my best. I've got my confidence. They hit my pitch."
The loss spoiled a solid effort from Carlos Villanueva, who struck out six over 6 2/3 innings and scattered six hits. Villanueva knows Marmol well; they faced each other in the Minor Leagues.
"I'm more concerned for how he feels," Villanueva said. "Results are going to change, obviously. We all want to do well, we want to win every game. I'm more concerned about him as a human being. I've known him for a long time, and I know he'll come back tomorrow and try to get it done again."
The Cubs' offense came alive. David DeJesus and Luis Valbuena didn't have a hit prior to Saturday's game and Anthony Rizzo had one in 12 at-bats, which came on the first pitch he saw on Opening Day. That changed as Rizzo belted a two-run home run, DeJesus doubled and scored in the first, and Valbuena hit a tie-breaking solo home run in the fourth to spark a 13-hit attack.
But the Cubs didn't get hits in crucial situations. They loaded the bases with none out in the eighth and failed to score, and stranded two more in the ninth.
"It could've been a lot more, too," Sveum said of the offense. "Just to get one out of that [eighth inning] would've been nice. We still have to get better that way. We still have to understand pitch selection and all that. The fact of the matter is we had a chance to put the game away and we didn't do it."
The Cubs began the day batting .133 on the season, and had scored seven runs on 16 hits in their first four games. Sveum wasn't worried about the lack of offense.
"I'd be lying if I said we weren't struggling," Sveum said. "It's too early to push the panic button, if that's what you're asking. These guys are the core guys and guys are going to come around. The media guide doesn't lie."
Nate Schierholtz hit a RBI single in the Chicago first, but Justin Upton made it 1-1 with his first home run of the night. Valbuena's first hit of the season came with one out in the fourth, when he homered to give the Cubs a 2-1 lead.
Rizzo, whose only hit had been his Opening Day home run last Monday against the Pirates, collected his second hit and second home run with one on and one out in the fifth. Welington Castillo added a RBI single to make it 5-1.
The Braves began their rally in the eighth. Justin Upton doubled to lead off against Fujikawa and scored on Freddie Freeman's single for the first run off the Japanese right-hander. Dan Uggla singled, and one out later, Gerald Laird walked to load the bases.
"When those guys don't have their splits, you better locate your fastball and he didn't locate his fastball tonight," Sveum said of Fujikawa. "It was up in the zone."
"I think I put myself in a bad situation putting the leadoff guy on," Fujikawa said.
Ramiro Pena then hit a two-run single to cut the deficit to 5-4, but Fujikawa got pinch-hitter Reed Johnson to hit into an inning-ending double play.
The Braves had no trouble in the ninth against Marmol. Fujikawa shouldered some of the blame.
"I shouldn't be the one saying it, but if I got that eighth inning in a better way, I could've passed it on easier to Marmol, so it's my responsibility as well," Fujikawa said.
It may be a long night for Marmol.
"He's a strong guy. I'm sure he'll recover from this," Villanueva said. "You've got to take the positives out of it. It's tough and it'll be tough for a little bit. He's been a closer for a while, so he has that mentality. He's got to have confidence that he'll bounce back and lead us to some victories."

Augustus was educated at Wolverhampton School, which he entered in 1874, but there he failed to show the brilliance which he was to show later in his life. This is not to say that he was a poor pupil, merely a mediocre one, but by his final year at school he was beginning to excel and in 1881 he won a scholarship to study at St John's College Cambridge. Entering St John's College in the following year, his first difficult decision was whether to take a degree in mathematics or in classics. He decided on mathematics and steadily improved his performance until he was elected scholar of the College in 1884 and, in the following year, he was Second Wrangler, meaning that he was ranked second among the First Class students in the Mathematical Tripos. He was elected to a fellowship at St John's College in 1886 and the following year won the first Smith's Prize. These years were highly productive ones during which Love produced outstanding work which led to his election to the Royal Society in 1894.
Love was appointed to the Sedleian chair of natural philosophy at Oxford in 1899. At this time he gave up his fellowship at St John's College but, in 1927 he was elected an honorary fellow at his old College of St John's. In the same year of 1927 he was also elected to a fellowship at Queen's College Oxford.
He worked on the mathematical theory of elasticity, on which he wrote the two volume work A Treatise on the Mathematical Theory of Elasticity (1892-93) described as [3]:-
... a monumental work of the utmost importance.Milne, writing in the Dictionary of National Biography, is full of praise for this outstanding work:-
This is a fine, scholarly work, written with an historical sense; unhurried in style, massive in lecture, satisfying in fullness. It gives the general theory of stress and strain; of the conditions of equilibrium and stability of elastic plates, shells and solids; of torsion rods and the bending and vibration of beams; and the transmission of force. It remains a permanent monument to the academic aspect of elasticity. The treatment throughout is severely analytical, but it took form too early to incorporate the tensor calculus.Love also did important work on waves. His work on the structure of the Earth in Some Problems in Geodynamics won for him the Adams Prize at Cambridge in 1911. An expert on spherical harmonics, Love discovered the existence of waves of short wavelength in the Earth's crust. The ideas in this work are still much used in geophysical research and the short wavelength earthquake waves he discovered are called 'Love waves'. Milne writes:-
Love investigated the possibility of the propagation of a purely distortional surface wave, and found that such could exist in a heterogeneous medium. In these waves the disturbance is purely horizontal (traverse to the direction of propagation), and the wave velocity, unlike that of 'Raleigh waves', depends upon wavelength. 'Love waves' have proved of considerable importance in the hands of later investigators, who have been able to infer, from their application to seismograms, indications of the thickness of the upper layer of the earth's crust.He received many honours, the Royal Society awarded him its Royal Medal in 1909 and its Sylvester Medal in 1937, while the London Mathematical Society awarded him its De Morgan Medal in 1926. He also acted as secretary to the London Mathematical Society for fifteen years between 1895 and 1910, and was elected as president of the Society in 1912-13.
He is described in [3] as follows:-
He was a singularly modest man with a passion for accuracy and a gift for the lucid exposition of difficult and abstruse problems. His lectures to his students at Oxford were models of clear thinking and style.Milne describes him as having:-
... a certain whimsicality of manner and appearance which endeared him to his many friends.Love never married and, after the death of his father during the time that he held his fellowship at Cambridge, the younger of his two sisters kept house for him for the rest of his life.

October 2014 Expenditures
I am thrilled to report that we made it through October without turning our heat on! And it was by the skin of Frugal Hound's fangs too. Temperatures here in Cambridge, MA plummeted into the 30's (Fahrenheit) on Halloween night and we thought we might not scrape by. But, we persevered and didn't succumb until November 1st.
Even with the heat on though,Mr. Frugalwoods and I keep our home at 58 degrees (when we're asleep or out of the house) and 62 degrees (when we're awake and at home). Check out my 11 Frugal Hacks to Stay Warm and Save Money This Winter to see how we're staying toasty on the cheap.
Groceries were remarkably low in October, to which I propose a frugal weirdo high-five! I know that November's spending will be pretty substantial, as we're delighted to be hosting Thanksgiving dinner, so, it was good to have a cheap October. Not quite as cheap as September, but, anytime our expenses–other than our mortgage–are under $1,000, we're happy campers.
As regular readers know, the below spreadsheet reflects every single purchase Mr. FW and I made all month long. We track every dime we spend in order to keep ourselves on target with saving 65%-85% of our take-home pay (after maxing out our 401Ks). Curious how we keep costs so low? Check out How We Save 65% Annually and, if you're up for some hardcore frugal adventuring, take my Uber Frugal Month Challenge.
If you want to know why some typical line items are absent from our budget, head over to our August Expenses, where I detail the deal on these missing items
And now, sit back, relax, and enjoy creeping through the Frugalwoods expense report:
|Frugalwoods Musings
|Mortgage & Escrow for Taxes & Insurance
|Yep, it's high. But, we live in a very high COL city (Cambridge, MA) and this house will be our cash-flowin' rental after we decamp to our rural homestead.
|This includes bulk foods (oats, beans, rice, spices, olive oil) and household supplies (toilet paper, dog food, laundry detergent, vitamins, shampoo, etc).
|Pleased as Frugal Hound with a treat! This is a record low for us. Mr. FW has been cooking even more from scratch and we're on the rice-and-beans train for lunch every day. Woohoo!
|Water Bill (For 3 Months)
|Our water bill is paid every three months. I'm delighted with $42.92/month for water. We've worked hard to decrease our loads of laundry and take shorter showers. Hooray less water! Cheaper and better for the environment.
|Home Improvement Supplies
|Our DIY home improvement adventures continue.
|1 Year PO Box Subscription
|This is the PO Box for Frugalwoods! Thanks to this box, we now have a robust email subscription service. If you haven't signed up for our emails yet, you can do so at the bottom of this post.
|Elecrtric Bill
|It's electric!
|Consistent and necessary.
|Fuel for Frugalwoods-mobile
|We didn't drive much in October, so this is one fill-up for the ol' minivan.
|Heartworm Medication for Frugal Hound
|Got to keep our girl healthy!
|Gas Bill
|You can tell we didn't turn the heat on in the month of October!
|Doctor Appointment co-pay
|I went to the doctor. Good news: I am healthy!
|Eye Doctor Appointment co-pay
|I went to the eye doctor. Good news: my eyes are testing perfectly 1.5 years after my Lasik surgery!
|Parking Meter
|Parking meter for my visit to the Doctor's office.
|Photo Backup
|Must preserve the millions of photos I take :)!
What do you think of our expenses? How was your October? Tips, frugal hacks, and advice always welcome!

Penthouse Tackles the Web, Swingers
Penthouse wants to give back this holiday season and help hook you up with your next indiscriminate sex party.
The porn mag snapped up the rights to Various Inc., which owns adultfriendfinder (AFF), a "personals community for swingers and sex." Penthouse reportedly shelled out $500 million for Various, which owns 25 sites, including Italianfriendfinder.com, gradfinder.com and, oddly enough, bigchurch.com--a site intended to connect people of the same faith. Altogether, the sites attract about 260 million users, approximately 1.2 million of whom pay for subscriptions.
AFF recently settled with the Federal Trade Commission over allegations that it violated the law by using sexually explicit pop-up ads.
The goal in purchasing Various is to attract 18-to-34 year old men willing to fork over some of their cash for some Penthouse-quality porn online, in the magazine, and via videos, Marc H. Bell, chief executive of Penthouse Media, told the New York Times.
The mag seems to have recently become aware of a little thing called the Internets. "The rationale here is, it's an online world," Bell said.
Way to be on top of things, Penthouse.
That's what she said.

FOAMETIX® proudly traces its roots back to the early 1960's when a small, family owned polyurethane company realized the increasing need for more advanced, environmentally friendly urethane foam technologies. Throughout the years, this same company revolutionized the polyurethane industry with the development of LINE-X®, the world wide leader in spray-on truck bed liners, and PAXCON®, one of very few blast mitigation products tested and approved by the US Military. PAXCON® was later utilized by the US government in the refurbishment of the US Pentagon after the 9/11 attacks.

The plan approved last month by the Delta Stewardship Council is designed to restore the Delta ecology and provide reliable water supplies to Californians.
Environmentalists have sued because they say the plan would have devastating impacts on fishing, farming and endangered species.
State water contractors have sued because they say it would decrease water deliveries. Greg Weber is with the McGeorge School of Law.
"The Delta Plan right now is like holding a wedding without the bride," says Weber.
The bride is the Bay Delta Conservation Plan, or BDCP, which includes the twin tunnel project to carry water south from the Delta.
"What people are complaining about is that the Delta Plan does not have the level of detail in it that probably will only be possible once the BDCP component is put in," he says.
The Delta Stewardship Council says its plan walks the very careful line specified by state law.


text: We are making a trip this summer to Nova Scotia. I appreciate any "must see" tips anyone may have or nice places to stay or eat along the way. I have not got all of this quite worked out yet but I was toying with the idea of taking a ferry to Newfoundland and then riding back through Quebec. Has anyone done this? There are several connections out of NS and I was thinking about heading from Sydney. We made a trip last year from Indiana to Quebec and loved Canada so we want to see more. I look forward to any and all suggestions. Putini rules!

After the usual administrative details (approval of agenda, previous AGM minutes, Reports - some of which will become available online at a later date). President Pierre Blanchard did present a report touching on some highlights, including:
- The adoption by the provinces at the IPC (Interprovincial Council) meeting of using the FQSC Drug Free Sport program nationally.
- Publishing of the first volume of the LTAD (Long Term Athlete Development Model), which will allow coaches and provinces to work towards an integrated model. Education of coaches will move forward under a completed strategy.
- Better collaboration between provinces/territories and national body; "The trust is back". Note: the Sport Canada representative commented specifically on this improved attitude.
- Canada has strong international presence in UCI Commissions, Commissaires and Committees, but needs stronger presence in continental association COPACI. USA Cycling and CCA are now meeting and working towards better communication and integration.
- Current sponsors have reaffirmed commitment to cycling.
- '07-'08 budget is on target, and the goal is not to affect athlete programs, so there have been many administrative cuts (50% cut in human resources). However, there are still uncertainties around some human rights legal issues and the bankruptcy of the BMX Worlds.
- The CCA Hamilton Road Worlds Legacy is now contributing funds to athletes and programs.
- The BMX Worlds were a success on the sporting front, and Canada has received the 2010 Mountain Bike Worlds. Canada has 3 World Cups (two MTB and one Road) - the U.S. have none. But Canada needs more international level events.
- A review of the High Performance Program by Podium (a group of partners that support Olympic sports) is underway (and will be released publicly).
- The Athlete Council is being revived, with Sue Palmer-Komar taking the lead, and agreeing to become the Athlete representative on the Board of Directors.
- The Sport Canada representative was generally pleased with cyclings efforts, and specifically mentioned the Drug Free Sport initiative, and that it has been very beneficial on Sport Canada's behalf to have Lorraine Lafreniere as the Executive Director.
The meeting then moved to the Financial Statements. These statements for the year ending March 31, 2007 will be published in detail by the CCA, but the highlights are:
- Revenue increased from $3,070,593 in 2006 to $3,236,526. However, expenses increased more rapidly - from $3,013,279 to $3,371,872. Therefore, the organization went from a surplus of $57,314 to a deficit of $135,346. Much of this is due to projected revenues not being met - budgets were not exceeded. The accumulated deficit is $1,258.
- Inventory markdowns and depreciation adjustments were higher than expected. Also, ongoing legal actions were accounted for in '06-'07. There are legal actions pending and unresolved potential liabilities. One of these is the action by 2003 Road Worlds original organizer Giuseppi Ferrara to receive expenses back. The Board has been told by legal council not to discuss other ongoing actions.
- From this point, a more conservative approach will be used and expenses will be tied to confirmed revenues instead of projected. This is not the way most corporations work, but is more standard for non-profits.
- The CCA sent out an RFP (Request for Proposal) for new auditors, and a new firm has been appointed: Ouseley Hanvey Clipsham Deep LLP. OHCD has worked with numerous other similar associations.
This year there no By-Law Amendments.
From here the AGM went into the most 'exciting' portion of the morning - the Elections for Board and Committee positions.
Board of Directors
Two positions for Board up for election with three nominees:
Aaron Hershoff (Ontario) - current member
Lesley Tomlinson (B.C.) - current member
Chantal Lachance (Quebec).
Aaron Hershoff and Chantal Lachance elected.
Officials Committee Chair - Wayne Pomario acclaimed
Officials Committee MTB Representative - Jim Bratrud acclaimed
Athlete and Coach Development Committee Chair - currently this Committee has suspended operations
Events Committee
MTB Representative - Mathieu Boucher acclaimed
BMX Representative - Adam Muys acclaimed
High Performance Committee Disability Program Representative - Brian Cowie acclaimed
High Performance Committee National Team Program Representative - Denise Kelly (Ontario) and Richard Wooles (B.C.) nominated.
Richard Wooles elected.
Athlete and Coach Development Committee has suspended operations while the CCA restructures the development and education components of the Association. To move some programs (such as the LTAD and National Coaching Program revisions) forward, the CCA has brought in contractors for specific projects. The ACDC will resume operations at a later date.
The 2008 AGM will be in Quebec City, with the date to be announced at a later date.
Meeting adjourned.

Welcome on World Wetlands Day! A day to celebrate the role of wetlands in contributing to biodiversity and human well-being.
WI was instrumental in campaigning for and creating the Ramsar Convention and was present in this event in 1971 in Iran when it was formed. The vision and emphasised the crucial role of wetlands in contributing to sustainable development. This is still our message todayĄbut more urgent!
The emphasis on human values and the concept of Wise Use of Wetlands was formalized through the Ramsar Convention in 1990 ĻC and Wetlands International worked to consolidate thinking and build capacity on the linkages and trade-offs between wetlands and livelihoods, resulting in milestone Resolution on Wetlands and Poverty Reduction in COP9 in Uganda 2005.
Of course wetlands have been managed for thousands of years and the traditional knowledge on the values of wetlands and how to manage different kinds of wetlands is extensive.
WI recognizes that in order to conserve wetlands, development perspectives are needed, since otherwise people become trapped in over-exploiting and degrading wetland resources. There are as many facets to poverty as there are to ecology and that we would need to work collaboratively with development organisations to succeed. Now there are compelling stories and proven mechanisms for delivering win-wins for biodiversity and livelihoods.
WI has also changed ĻC we work alongside partners in the development, humanitarian and water sectors our staff teams and projects can no longer be separated into single expertise types. We are very confident to deliver livelihood benefits wetland conservation and restoration to over 300,000 people in the next five years.
Soon after we commenced our first major, multi-region wetlands and poverty project, the Asian tsunami hit. Initially our role was as an international broker of data, maps and knowledge on the condition of the coastal wetlands and this resulted in us joining and leading the WNF, IUCN-NL coalition in a project funded by Oxfam Novib, that we called Green Coast. This project, which supported local communities in 5 countries, demonstrated that ecosystem restoration is needed to bridge the gap between immediate humanitarian aid and rebuilding livelihoods ĻC and that small scale, targeted delivery of assistance could result in sustainable, landscape scale results.
Building on our practical experience and technical expertise on mangrove restoration, we are now working with a new set of partners on Mangrove Capital, focused in Indonesia ĻC which aims to shore up the science and bring forward the ecosystem values of mangroves, address the policy gaps and trial some innovative approaches to combining hard and soft engineering in coastal defense along vulnerable coastlines.
Keeping a focus on Disaster Risk Reduction, we are now part of a broader Alliance called the Partners for Resilience, and our joint programme tackling disaster risk reduction and climate adaptation, which is further developing and demonstrating the need to join up concepts and strategies for ecosystem and human resilience in 9 countries of Africa, Asia and Latin America.
In arid and semi-arid zones, wetlands are a lifeline for people. Climate change is placing these precious resources under increasing pressure, but our work is often showing that the on-going degradation of wetlands and water diversions is an even bigger and more imminent threat to human survival. Wetlands = critical elements of natural water infrastructure.
Our partners in this Alliance and the Ecosystem Alliance have joined to develop the Great Green Wall initiative to stimulate and build large scale momentum and finance to support community-based initiatives for building resilience in the Sahelian zone. [we will show you short film of our work in a major Sahelian wetland in Mali after my presentation].
Again, responding to an emerging situation, Wetlands International found ourselves in the middle of the uproar over Avian flu. We were the organisation who could inform on waterbird migration routes and patterns. We provided our information and tackled the FAO and WHO who seemed too keen to blame the wild birds and joined their teams in the field in extensive and intensive monitoring programmes. In this way we helped to avert the wholesale slaughter of wild birds.
As a result of a major flyway project in Africa-Eurasia we were able combine datasets of partner organisations and Conventions and make site management and policy relevant knowledge easily available through a common portal. This Critical Site Network tool won a global award for Ą° best interactive web map.Ąą We continue to work with these and other partners to connect people and wetland sites along flyways in all regions, building on the excellent work achieved so far.
Crucially, we have brought the worldsĄŊ attention to the massive contribution that peatland degradation makes to greenhouse gas emissions. With the assistance of partner NGO networks and governments, we have managed to secure text through the climate negotiations which will ensure that there is accountability and incentives to invest in the protection and restoration of tropical peatswamp forests as well as for developed countries to reverse drainage in agricultural areas.
Through a private sector partnership that will enable investments via voluntary carbon market and projects for peatland conservation and restoration in south-east Asia, Russia and elsewhere, we are anticipating to prevent over 100Mt CO2 release by 2015 through wetland restoration.
In the last decade, we have homed in on trying to save and restore south-east AsiaĄŊs peatswamp forests, which are being drained and converted largely for palm oil and pulp production at an alarming rate. We have worked to get the issue of peat considered in terms of sustainability by the industry round tablesWe have demonstrated that it is possible to reverse the drainage and prevent fires and peatland degradation and restored 000s of hectares of peatswamps forests. We have shown the potential for alternative community-based livelihoods. Through advocacy we have achieved that Biofuels produced by draining peatsoils are excluded from subisidies and support within the EU. Several countries excluded palm oil from support for producing green electricity.Our advocacy, research and field results have also helped to trigger major investments from bi-lateral donors, such as Norway ĄŪs 1bln for reducing emissions from forest loss in Indonesia.
Wetlands International recognizes the need to work with the private sector whose activities most influence the condition of wetlands. We entered our first major corporate partnership, with Shell in 2008, following several years of consideration and planning. It is recognized that the oil and gas industry has a significant direct and indirect impact on wetlands and the well-being of local peoples. The issues seem likely to intensify given that oil and gas is being sourced from more and more sensitive environments and that the intensity of water use in fuel production is rocketing. We are invited to be a critical friend of Shell and to influence their thinking as well as to influence the scope of environmental considerations at an earlier stage in project development than has been managed before. We have formed joint projects in the Arctic, Canada, Nigeria, Brunei and Iraq. We are grateful to Shell for helping us (through investments and training) to build our capacity to develop the knowledge and capacities to effectively engage with them and the corporate sector in general. As well as extending our current partnership next year, we are planning to broaden our portfolio of corporate partners as a means to achieve our strategy goals.
Finally, on behalf our whole network, I want to celebrate with you that Wetlands International achieved the CBF seal in October 2011. It took a lot of hard work over many years to achieve this status. Whilst many staff and members of our Supervisory Council did play important role, there are a few people who gave their time and efforts to support me. I especially want to thank
LNV ĻC in particular Seppe Raaphorst and Martin LokShell ĻC Steven de BieAnd from our Supervisory Council, two people who really supported me and laid the foundations for the institution: Wim Aalbersberg and Gerard van Voorst.
Many thanks.

Grain prices dropped today on profit taking and a sharply higher dollar. March corn finished 6 ¾ cents lower, March beans 8 ½ cents lower, and March wheat 4 cents lower.
Coming into the day the markets were slightly weaker with wheat leading the way lower. Weekly exports came in above expectations for soybeans and corn; and below expectations for wheat.
Here are the following Exports (Actual vs Estimated in 1000 MT's):
Estimate Actual
Soybeans 3400-3600 4107.9
Corn 450-700 1236
Wheat 800-1100 565.4
Despite the impressive soybean exports, the stronger US dollar weighed heavily on prices today. Comments made by the European Central bank President Jean-Claude Trichet were viewed as bearish the Euro currency which in turn is bullish the US Dollar. Also today, Ben Bernanke commented that he doesn't believe his economic policies have contributed to the global rise in food prices. He also mentioned that inflation is contained, and it may take a while for the unemployment rate to fall substantially. These comments may be a sign that rates will not be rising in the short term which would be bullish dollar-denominated assets like commodities.
Weather is looking favorable in South America and is helping to put pressure on grains. If the dollar starts to strengthen again, we could see this continue to negatively affect the price of corn, wheat, and beans, especially since we are coming off the highs in these markets. Even though the traditional fundamentals look bullish, outside market forces could still be a significant risk.
We recommend keeping your upside potential in the calls spreads, and make sales in the cash market. Please call your broker for a specific recommendation for your operation.

The Aldrich Alert
A Publication of the Patrick Henry Center for Individual Liberty
by Gary Aldrich - Volume 1 Issue 15
To have the ability to predict the future, but not be able to act when serious damage to one's country is so obvious a potential, truly can be a curse:
Unlimited Access, page 38: "In the Clinton Administration, we had a major problem with interns walking off with Laptop computers." Page 36: "Federal employees were trying to find more than $150,000 worth of equipment lost or stolen from the (Clinton) inauguration"
Washington Post headline May 5, 2000: "State Department Missing 2 More Laptop Computers; Top Aide Involved."
Unlimited Access, page 67: "A related risk came from the new administration's total disregard for the security of classified information. Just as they ignored the need for FBI SPIN investigations, so too did they deride the idea of needing security clearances to handle or read classified documents."
Alternatively, consider what is written on page 152: "I wonder if the Department of Justice or Congress knows that what this administration is doing is illegal? To me, it's a clear violation of national security, established standards of conduct, and Executive Orders of the president."
Insight Magazine article dated May 8, 2000: "FBI Probes Espionage at Clinton White House." The article details an investigation that was begun in late 1996 or early 1997 when the FBI received a tip from the CIA that a local telephone manager was acting suspicious. Before too much time had gone by, the FBI "discovered enough information to make it believe that, somehow, the highest levels of the State Department were compromised, as well as the White House and the National Security Counsel."
The FBI did not have to wait for a tip from the CIA! One of their own agents, working inside the Clinton White House, had warned them of a most serious security breach. The warning came in plain English, easy to understand: "The new phone system was a security nightmare. The old system was self-contained, manned twenty-four hours every day. The new system was computerized and, therefore, not self-contained." Page 47, Unlimited Access.
Many more details of the new, seriously flawed telephone system appeared in the manuscript of my book, submitted to FBI Headquarters for their review in the winter of 1995! The FBI forced me to redact important information that detailed the White House Telephone System national security weaknesses, citing concerns for national security. Apparently, their only concern was about the relationship between the FBI and a flawed, corrupted Clinton White House, because the FBI waited until the CIA discovered actual evidence of espionage before they conducted any investigation.
The FBI Director and his entire executive board decided that the best thing to do about my "embarrassing" book was to copy it, and to send a copy down to Bill Clinton's White House counsel, Jack Quinn!
Insight Magazine: "This is a very serious security failure with unimaginable consequences. Anyone could have accessed that and gotten into the entire White House phone system, and obtained numbers and passwords that we could never track!"
Call, e-mail or write to your congressman or senators, and local media outlets, today! Tell them that you think national security is vital, and that more attention should be given to this issue!

Biodiversity and Liquid Biofuel Production
Pursuant to paragraph (d) of appendix A to annex III of
decision VIII/10
, one of the specific functions of the Subsidiary Body on Scientific, Technical and Technological Advice (SBSTTA) of the Convention on Biological Diversity is to identify new and emerging issues relating to the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity. In consultation with the members of the SBSTTA Bureau, the Executive Secretary identified, among other issues, the interlinkages between biodiversity and biofuel production as a new and emerging issue for consideration by SBSTTA at its 12th meeting in the framework of the objectives of the Convention and the 2010 biodiversity target.
In preparation for the 12th meeting of the Subsidiary Body, the Executive Secretary of the Convention has launched this electronic forum to gather information on the status and trends of biofuel production, its advantages and the known and possible adverse impacts on the objectives of the Convention. The electronic forum and SBSTTA considerations will be focused on liquid biofuel bearing in mind that the recent expansion of biofuel production is for the substitution of fossil fuel energy.
Click here for general information on recent trends in biofuel production.
This electronic forum focuses on
The types of biomass currently or experimentally used for liquid biofuel production; the trend and the scale of production of this biomass; and countries where this biomass is currently or planned to be produced.
The observed or expected benefits in terms of climate change mitigation, socioeconomic impacts including poverty alleviation, and other benefits.
The observed or expected negative impacts on biodiversity (ecosystems goods and services) and on the socioeconomic status of local communities and countries.
Solutions that have been proposed to reduce the negative impacts and recommendations made to promote the benefits and reduce the negative impacts.

Because no one reads the newspaper, and SportsCenter's anchors are too perky for this early in the morning, Deadspin combs the best of the broadsheets and internets to bring you everything you need to know to start your day.
•Well, didn't see this one coming: Wayne Rooney agreed to a new 5-year deal with Manchester United, just days after saying he wanted out. Stiff upper lip, Man City. Finishing fourth will be slightly less painful than third would have been. (Pic via Twitter, h/t Jovan J)
•Roy Halladay strained a groin muscle in the second inning, but still managed to outduel Tim Lincecum and send the series back to Philadelphia. We should all just be thankful we're not talking about "the bloody crotch game" this morning.
•Duke is the near-unanimous No. 1 in the ESPN/USA Today coaches' poll. 10/10: would fuck again.
•Human No. 1 Oregon — but computer No. 8 — went duckshit all over UCLA's defense for a 60-13 win. Don't you love the part of the season where everybody starts running up the score?
•David Stern hopes to cut NBA salaries by a third. Good luck with that. They've got a better chance at capping the rosters at 8 players.
Good morning. We're going to comb our hair today.

WASHINGTON - Watch out, Joe Biden. The other vice president is in the house.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who plays Vice President Selina Meyer on the HBO comedy "Veep," came to the White House on Friday to have lunch with Biden.
While in the West Wing, Louis-Dreyfus took the opportunity to try out the vice president's desk - the real one, not the replica she uses on the set.
"I surprised him by sitting at his desk, so he thought he'd just ask my advice on various briefs he had to deal with," Louis-Dreyfus said in an audio clip posted to the White House website. "I was happy to give him my advice, which he paid no attention to whatsoever."
"It's a day I'll never forget," she added.
Her performance as an ambitious but largely powerless No. 2 hasn't gone unnoticed by Biden.
After the former "Seinfeld" star won an Emmy award for her performance in the first season of "Veep," Biden called her to offer his congratulations, the vice president's office said.
And in 2008, when then-Sen. Biden and President Barack Obama were running for office, Biden and Louis-Dreyfus appeared together on NBC's "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," where Biden plunged the actress into the pool of a dunk tank to raise money for breast cancer. The two then shared a soggy smooch through the bars of the dunk tank.
The second season of "Veep" starts Sunday.

Orrange lifts No. 1 Stanford
Stanford -- The Stanford women dominated their first game atop the polls since 2005 with a 77-41 romp over Long Beach State on Sunday at Maples Pavilion.
Forward Joslyn Tinkle led all scorers with 18 points, and two-time reigning Pac-12 Player of the Week Chiney Ogwumike added a double-double, but the story was Stanford point guard Amber Orrange, who ignited the Cardinal offense with 13 points, seven rebounds and nine assists.
Orrange scored Stanford's first seven points and successfully navigated the 49ers' full-court press and half-court trap to dish eight first-half assists. She also hit one of her team's seven first-half threes, out of 10 total.
"Our strategy going into the game was to take away the three-point line, pack it in on Chiney and let Amber shoot the ball," Long Beach State coach Jody Wynn said. "She started out 3-for-3. What are you gonna do?"
Orrange wasn't the only hot first-half shooter for Stanford (6-0), which shot 54.3 percent from the field en route to a 49-point output - its highest in a first half this season.
All told, the Cardinal shot 50 percent from the field and had nine players play double-digit minutes and score. Taylor Greenfield joined in the quartet of double-digit Stanford scorers, chipping in 11, including three three-pointers.
"I thought Amber did a really good job running our team," Stanford head coach Tara VanDerveer said. "... We had a lot of different people contribute, so I like that, too."
Stanford also showcased a stifling defense, holding Long Beach State (3-3) to 27 percent shooting, including 2-for-20 from behind the arc. Guard Alex Sanchez had half of her team's 20 first-half points and finished with 14 to lead the 49ers, who dropped to 1-1 against Pac-12 teams after a Nov. 18 win over Washington.
"They're very skilled," Wynn said of the Cardinal, who extended their home win streak to 81 games. "They're big, they're long, they can shoot the ball."
"They're well-deserving of being the No. 1 team in the nation."
Stanford will take its lofty ranking on the road for seven of its next nine games, including a Dec. 22 game at No. 20 Tennessee and its first three Pac-12 games.
"Our target is growing bigger and bigger, and we want to keep it there," Tinkle said. "We have a lot to keep improving on."

A mother was arrested at a New Jersey restaurant after her toddler was found home alone in a smoke-filled apartment.
Police say a building superintendent saw smoke coming from the apartment and called police. Before they arrived, the superintendent entered the apartment with two neighbors and found the 2-year-old alone in a bedroom, next to a bed where an iron was smoldering on some clothing.
They grabbed the child, who is expected to be OK.
Police say it was a sweltering 90 degrees inside the home.
The 23-year-old mother was arrested at a restaurant in Cranford, about 2 miles away authorities said. She is charged with endangering the welfare of a child.
Authorities didn't say what might have caused the smoky conditions inside the apartment.

When we asked attendees of BevNET Live Winter '13 to describe their reactions to New Beverage Showdown 6, we heard a lot of the "same old, same old" about the beverage brand competition: compelling; dramatic; inspiring; nerve-wracking; sensational. Boring stuff, indeed.
All kidding aside, it was clear that New Beverage Showdown 6 featured one of the most diverse and talented range of entrepreneurs in the history of the competition. Beginning with a semifinal round comprised of 20 new and early-stage beverage companies, brand founders gave their best "elevator pitch" to a panel of industry veterans in hopes of being one of the six chosen to advance to the finals, and a chance to win $10,000 in cash and prizes.
The final round showcased six brands that represented a variety of new and emerging categories in the beverage industry, including cold-pressed juice, kombucha and maple water. The finalists included Lyft, a "stir stick" infused with all-natural caffeine, vTrue Radiance, a beauty enhancement beverage, Chimp Food, a "Paleo diet" inspired meal-replacement smoothie, Health-Ade, a line of small-batch kombucha drinks, Lumi Juice, a brand of cold-pressed, HPP juices, and Happy Tree, which markets a maple water product.
The competition once again proved to be extremely tough, but when the dust finally settled, it was Health-Ade that took home Showdown gold, followed closely by Happy Tree and Chimp Food, which were awarded first and second runner-up, respectively. Watch the video below to see Health-Ade's presentation in full, as well and the judges' reactions and questions for the brand's founders, Dina and Justin Trout.

Yes, that guy does a wheelie the entire way up the hill. And his car sounds like a grizzly bear eating a swarm of bees. This is the glory of snow hill drags.
We started to fall for snow drags when we saw the 2,000 horsepower abominable snow monster, but we're completely smitten now.

Welcome to Watch List, where we identify five things on TV to watch while you stay at home and shake your fist at NBC for pushing next season of "Parks And Recreation" to 2011. GAH! Don't do it! Why must everything I love go away in the end? LET'S GO!
HOUSE – 8:00PM (FOX) It's your season finale tonight. And the team is on location! In Hawaii! No, just kidding. Not Hawaii. No, they're at the scene of a building collapse, which almost certainly will serve as a metaphor for House's rapidly deteriorating grip on his sobriety and peace of mind. His cane is not unlike a load-bearing pillar that has snapped! Also, I hope he and Cuddy do it. ANTICIPATION: NO KARAOKE!
24 – 9:00PM (FOX) Only three hours left! Gahhhh! My guide says that tonight, Jack is seeking retribution. Well really, when is this man NOT seeking retribution? He's a retribution dispensary. He never needs to pee, but he always needs retribution. He RUNS on vengeance. Anyway, get your 24 fix in. Pretty soon, you'll have to go without spending you Monday nights seeing another man shooting people, snapping their fingers into pieces, and clawing out their eyes with a rake. You will MISS this. ANTICIPATION: TORCHAHHHHHHH!
CHUCK – 8:00PM (NBC) Behold the power… OF BAKULA! Yes, the venerable TV actor (and a man whose last name always makes me think of a back that has fangs growing out of it) returns tonight as Chuck's Dad. Pity Dean Stockwell isn't joining him… FROM THE FUTURE. Also, Chuck was picked up for a fourth season. Which means more Chuck for those of us that watch Chuck, and more promos with Yvonne for those of us that don't. Everyone wins. ANTICIPATION: BAKULA!
HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER – 8:00PM (CBS) Last week, Barney wooed Arianna Huffington, no doubt by deploying some sort of liberal headline in 78-point type. This week, he continues his tour of "journalist ladies who look kinda hot from a suitable distance" when he beds Maureen Dowd. Just kidding. ANTICIPATION: SEXY!
DANCING WITH THE STARS – 8:00PM (ABC) You get Miley Cyrus dancing tomorrow night. Don't tell your creepy uncle. ANTICIPATION: GO OCHO!

Amberina, a two-toned glassware, was originally made from 1883 to about 1900. It was patented by Joseph Locke of the New England Glass Company, but was also made by other companies and is still being made. The glass shades from red to amber. Amberina is usually red at the top because it is much easier to reheat the top of a piece than the bottom. Similar pieces of glass may be found in the Baccarat, Libbey, Plated Amberina, and other categories. Glass shaded from blue to amber is called Blue Amberina or Bluerina.

Location: Room AH-102
Phone: 619-388-3512
Each year over 400 students participate in City College's Honors Program. Honors classes are stimulating, engaging, and offer a greater level of depth while emphasizing student involvement, participation and performance.
The City College Honors Program offers three different options for participation: the Honors Core, Honors Courses, and Honors Contracts.
The Honors Core is a two semester learning community. The Core begins every fall semester and features a team taught Honors English 101 course linked to Honors Sociology 101. During the spring semester the entire Honors Core cohort progresses to a second learning community linking Honors English 205 with Honors Humanities 101. The Honors Core allows for a relationship of complex ideas that can be explored over an extended period of time. Academic skill-building is reinforced, and a stronger sense of community is developed among all participants in the program. Students must maintain good academic standing in order to progress to the following semester. These courses are subjected to application approval; applications can be obtained at the Honors Program office, Room AH-102 phone number (619) 388-3512, and can be downloaded from the Honors Student Resources page on this website.
Honors Courses, outside of the Honors Core, are offered in several different subjects every semester. They are identified on the class schedule by an Honors designation. These courses are open to any student and do not require an application. They explore topics in greater depth and breadth; honors students encounter a range of historical, technical and cultural points of view that they may not experience in a non-honors section of the same course.
Honors Contracts are the most popular way that students participate in Honors. An honors contract is a mutual agreement reached between a student and a professor to enhance a course through honors level objectives and tasks that are in addition to those of the regular class. The contract also includes the methods of evaluation, a syllabus for the non-honors course appropriately amended with the honors components, and a signature sheet, indicating acceptance by the student and instructor. Contracts are made at the discretion of the professor and with the assistance of campus honors coordinators. Honors contract requirements may include additional readings, writing, as well as special projects. The biggest advantage of honors contracts is that they allow students to explore their favorite subjects in greater depth while compiling the honors units that they need to transfer within the boundaries of their own personal schedule. Almost all courses can be converted into Honors however, the only other stipulations are that the course must be face to face, 16 weeks long, and a 100-level or higher. Please contact the Honors Program for semester deadline.
If you are interested in the City College Honors Program please contact the Honors Program Office or one of our Coordinators. For more information you can also access our FAQs page.
We look forward to hearing from you!

Het betreft hier de E-licentie van ACAP AXIS Loitering Guard licentie
deze moet je dus niet verwarren met de ACAP AXIS Loitering Guard licentie
AXIS Loitering Guard is a robust loitering detection application that
is used to identify suspicious behavior. It tracks persons and other
objects and triggers an alarm if they remain too long in the scene. The
application enables efficient protection of business premises and
property, around the clock. AXIS Loitering Guard is typically used in
semi-public areas with lower activity, such as parking lots, school
yards, and fenced-off areas where loitering might pose a security issue.
AXIS Loitering Guard is easy to set up and configure. The intuitive
user interface with real-time visual confirmation provides an easy way
to validate that the application detects objects correctly. AXIS
Loitering Guard is supported by Axis False Alarm Filtering that
suppresses most common sources of false alarms, such as headlights,
swaying trees and smaller animals. This helps focus the operators
attention on actual threats.
AXIS Loitering Guard can also be configured to adjust for
perspective, to support long-range detection scenarios, with a simple
calibration procedure.
Profiles make it possible to create multiple configurations, for
example, one configuration for daytime and one for nighttime, or
configurations with different detection areas. Each profile triggers its
own alarms and has its own settings.
AXIS Loitering Guard integrates with the camera event management
system. The application enables event streaming to video management
software and camera actions such as I/O control, notification and edge
AXIS Loitering Guard is typically used in areas with lower activity,
such as after-hours monitoring of office buildings, retail stores,
industrial properties, vehicle depots and other unattended areas. The
detection area is defined by a polygon in the cameras interface; one
area of interest and up to ten exclude areas per profile.
The application detects moving objects such as persons and vehicles
within the predefined area, making it possible to automatically trigger
an action.
