Georgia-Pacific is converting its acquisition of Buckeye Technologies Inc. to a merger that requires a shareholder vote because of regulatory inquiries.
Georgia-Pacific LLC, a privately held paper, packaging and building products company, said Wednesday, June 26, that it was converting to a "long form" merger from a pending acquisition because of a second request from the Justice Department for details about Buckeye's nonwovens business.
The Atlanta company also said that it was ending the tender offer related to the transaction.
Georgia-Pacific announced in April that it had reached a deal to buy Buckeye for about $1.46 billion.
Buckeye, which is based in Memphis, runs manufacturing plants in the U.S. and Germany. It makes and markets specialty fibers and nonwoven materials made from wood and cotton.
Those products are used in personal hygiene products, disposable diapers, engine air and oil filters, napkins, cleaning supplies, baby wipes and a series of other goods.
Earlier this month Georgia-Pacific said that it received another request from the Federal Trade Commission and the antitrust division of the Justice Department for more information and documents related to the Buckeye acquisition. The FTC and antitrust unit had asked for more information and documentation on Buckeye's nonwovens business, with the companies saying that they would continue to work with both parties.
A long form merger is when more than the minimum number of shares – but less than 90 percent – are tendered in an offer. In such an instance, shareholders must vote in favor of the deal for it to close. In a short form merger, 90 percent or more of the shares are tendered and no shareholder vote is needed.
The companies said that Buckeye will hold a special shareholders meeting promptly to vote on the merger agreement. At least 75 percent of Buckeye's outstanding stock must be voted in favor of the deal.
If the transaction is approved, Buckeye shareholders will receive $37.50 per share in cash. This is the same amount they would've received in the tender offer.
Tennessee Supreme Court Justice Janice M. Holder of Memphis announced Wednesday, June 26, that she will retire from the court effective Aug. 31, 2014.
The retirement date is the end of Holder's current eight-year term and means she will not seek re-election in the judicial retention races on the August 2014 ballot.
"It has been my privilege to serve the people of Tennessee as a trial judge and Supreme Court justice, and an honor to have been selected by my fellow justices as the first female chief justice in our state's history," Holder said in a news release.
She notified Gov. Bill Haslam by letter that she will not seek re-election in the August 2014 judicial retention election.
Holder, a former Shelby County Circuit Court judge, was appointed to the Supreme Court in December 1996 and elected in August 1998 and then re-elected in 2006.
In 2008 she became the first woman to serve as chief justice of the Tennessee Supreme Court.
She is the third woman to serve on the high court. She held the position of chief justice from September 2008 to August 2010.
Zacks Equity Research has reiterated a neutral recommendation on Memphis-based First Horizon National Corp., the parent company of First Tennessee Bank.
The research company cited improved credit quality metrics at First Horizon coupled with the downside of declining revenues. First Horizon currently has a Zacks rank of "hold."
"Despite the macroeconomic pressure, First Horizon's credit quality continues to normalize," according to Zacks. "Credit metrics consistently improved in 2012 as the overall financial condition of businesses and consumers strengthened and the housing market improved in many areas. Going forward, we expect asset quality to improve with continuous reserve releases.
"We are also impressed with the company's cost-control measures, which have aided in improving bottom-line performance amid the sluggish macroeconomic environment. Moreover, we believe that the company's solid capital levels will offer flexibility regarding capital deployment as well as other strategic acquisitions in Tennessee or its adjacent markets that will be accretive to growth. … We are also concerned about the company's top-line growth and margins, which continue to be impacted by the low rate environment and sluggish economic recovery. Further, First Horizon's significant exposure to problem loan categories, such as industrial and commercial mortgages, is another problem. Additionally, regulatory issues will limit the company's flexibility with respect to business investments."
Magna Bank has been named Community Bank of the Year by dollar value for its Small Business Administration lending.
It's the third-straight year the bank has been recognized by the Tennessee SBA for its lending practices. Magna awarded a SBA loan volume of $13.2 million during fiscal year 2012, up $1 million from fiscal year 2011.
The dollar amount of SBA loans Magna awarded in 2012 was more than any other community bank in the state.
In addition to SBA lending, Magna also provides business banking services that include commercial banking, multi-unit lending and construction lending.
The city's motor vehicle inspection stations close permanently Friday, June 28, at 3 p.m.
The administration of Memphis Mayor A C Wharton Jr. confirmed the closings Thursday, June 27, as workers at the stations prepare for either layoffs or to transfer to other city departments.
The stations are closing because last year the Memphis City Council voted to end all funding of the inspection services and the stations effective at the end of the current fiscal year. The fiscal year ends June 30.
Meanwhile, there has been no resolution to talks among the city, Shelby County government and the state of Tennessee on who will continue to do the emissions testing required by the federal Environmental Protection Agency as one of several options for meeting air quality standards.
Council members voted to end the funding because they contend it isn't fair that Memphis vehicle owners are required to get the inspection and vehicle owners in the county outside the city are not.
The Friday closing is an early deadline for Memphis vehicle owners whose tags expire at the end of June.
But for those with July tags and beyond, Shelby County Clerk Wayne Mashburn will renew vehicle registrations without requiring the notice that the vehicle passed inspection.
The average U.S. rate on a 30-year fixed mortgage surged this week to 4.46 percent, the highest in two years.
The increase from a 3.93 percent average last week was the largest one-week jump in 26 years, according to a report Thursday from mortgage buyer Freddie Mac. And it shows the Federal Reserve's hints that it might slow its bond purchases this year are already affecting consumers.
In the short run, a spike in rates could prompt more people to buy homes, giving the housing recovery an added boost. That's because would-be buyers would want to lock in the rates before they rise further.
But if rates continue to climb, eventually some buyers might feel priced out. That could slow homes sales at a crucial time.
Interest rates have jumped after Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke said on June 19 that the Fed could slow its bond purchases later this year if the economy strengthens. Since Bernanke's comments, the yield on the 10-year Treasury note has risen to a two-year high. Mortgage rates tend to track the yield on the Treasury note.
Freddie Mac also said the average on the 15-year mortgage rose to 3.50 percent from 3.04 percent last week. That's the highest since August 2011.
Mortgage rates remain low by historical standards. Still, the impact on buyers' wallets in just the past two months is striking.
A buyer who locked in a 3.35 percent rate in early May on a $200,000 mortgage will pay $881 a month, according to Bankrate.com. Another buyer who gets a 4.46 percent rate this week on a mortgage of the same amount will pay $1,008 a month.
The difference: $127 more a month, or $45,720 over the lifetime of the loan. The figures don't include taxes, insurance or initial down payments.
Federal Reserve officials sought Thursday to calm investors by assuring them the Fed won't start trimming its bond purchases until the economy has strengthened. They said any pullback in the Fed's stimulus will hinge on the economy's performance, not a calendar date.
The Fed is buying $85 billion a month in bonds to try to keep long-term interest rates low to spur borrowing and spending. Chairman Ben Bernanke jolted investors last week when he said the Fed will likely slow its bond buying this year if the economy continues to improve.
William Dudley, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, said Thursday that if the economy proves weaker than the Fed forecasts, he expects the bond purchases to continue.
The Fed's timetable for its bond purchases depends on its outlook for the job market and the economy, Dudley stressed at a news conference in New York.
Jerome Powell, a member of the Fed's board in Washington, said investors appear to have incorrectly concluded that the Fed will taper its purchases soon.
A third Fed official, Dennis Lockhart, president of the Atlanta Fed bank, said Thursday that "the pace of purchases, the composition of purchases and the ultimate size of the Fed's balance sheet still depend on how economic conditions evolve."
City leaders in Humboldt, Milan and Trenton, Tenn., were awarded state transportation grants Wednesday, June 26, for downtown improvement projects.
In each case, the grants, which emphasize pedestrian or bicycle pathways, are for the latest phases on ongoing projects.
Trenton city leaders were awarded $525,469 for the second phase of Trenton Trail that adds sidewalks along with new signage and traffic calming devices. The trail highlights Civil War sights.
Humboldt's $396,248 grant is for a project that includes sidewalks and curbs in Humboldt's business district as well as pedestrian lighting and stamped concrete driveways.
In Milan, the $392,052 grant funds new sidewalks, crosswalks, bicycle racks and landscaping for southwest Front Street in the town's Downtown area.
The grants were announced by Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam and Tennessee Transportation Commissioner John Schroer. Schroer's department administers the funding, which comes from a federal transportation program.
On Thursday, June 26, Memphis community leaders will celebrate the completion of a new facility that will house the South Memphis Farmers Market.
The redeveloped green grocer is at 1400 Mississippi Blvd. and includes a demonstration kitchen that will help educate the community about healthy eating, organic products and healthy food preparation.
The South Memphis Farmers Market opened in 2010 as a collaborative organization run by South Memphis residents, The Works Inc. and the University of Memphis.
The $1.2 million community effort relies on funding from a variety of sources, including the Plough Foundation, the Department of Agriculture, the Department of Health and Human Services, and various local agencies and organizations.
Roshun Austin, the president and CEO of The Works Inc., a community development organization that focuses on South Memphis, says the South Memphis Farmers Market helps eliminate a food desert, while supporting the redevelopment of the South Parkway commercial corridor.
Studies show people that live in communities without supermarkets, often dubbed food deserts, have higher rates of obesity, diabetes and other diet-related health problems. The market is open Thursdays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Visible Music College and Saint Blues Guitars are teaming up to spread the word about Memphis music.
The institutions will give away four Delta Blues Box guitars this summer at music festivals, where a team of Visible Music College students also will be recruiting for the college.
The students arrived in Mineral City, Ohio, in recent days for Alive Christian Music Festival, and they'll hit festivals in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Minnesota before coming back to Memphis in late July.
Visible Music College has recruited heavily at Christian summer music festivals since its launch.
The partnership with Saint Blues Guitars was dreamed up by Visible Music College supporter and roots music aficionado Tim Price, who also donated a Saint Blues Blindsider guitar to the school for permanent use by students in the guitar program.
Republican Gov. Bill Haslam has hired on a former IBM executive to become the state's chief operating officer, a new Cabinet-level position in his administration.
Haslam announced Tuesday that Greg Adams' role as COO will be to promote efficiency and effectiveness in operations with state departments. He starts his new job on July 8.
Adams spent 37 years at IBM, most recently as a managing director in the company's financial services sector. His career with IBM also included stints in Knoxville and Nashville. He later served in a variety of senior management roles in Tokyo, New York and Atlanta.
Adams holds a bachelor's degree in engineering from Princeton and a master's in science and management from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
The new position pays $165,000 per year.
Fitch Ratings upheld its A rating on Memphis International Airport bonds following Delta Air Lines' announcement that it will end connecting activity at the airport Sept. 3.
Earlier this month, Moody's Investors Service downgraded the rating on the airport's outstanding revenue bonds to A3, from A2, and revised its investor outlook to stable, from negative.
While Fitch Ratings held its A bond rating on the Memphis-Shelby County Airport Authority's outstanding $394.8 million in revenue bonds, the New York-based research service revised the rating outlook to negative, from stable.
Analysts attributed the rating outlook downgrade to Delta's recent move to end all remaining connecting activity at the airport and said annual enplanements may fall below 1.8 million, leaving the airport more reliant on non-airline and cargo revenue.
Fitch warned Memphis International's rating likely will be downgraded unless the airport can maintain healthy debt service coverage through increasing origination and destination traffic, boosting airline rates and charges, and decreasing expenses.
Environmental Court Judge Larry Potter said Monday, June 24, that he hopes the new owners of the historic Nineteenth Century Club building on Union Avenue will preserve the decaying structure.
"It is my fervent hope what we will see is an effort to save the structure," he said.
Potter was addressing John Lee, a partner in the business entity, The Union Group LLC, that purchased the building at auction in January for $550,000.
Lee said the controlling partner in the group, Shon Lin, did not appear in court because he did not speak English well. Potter reset the hearing for Monday, July 1, and said if Lin, who operates three restaurants in the Memphis area, did not appear in court he would assess a $150 fine for each day Lin does not appear.
"I'm unhappy with the fact Mr. Lin decides to ignore a court summons because he's not confident in his English," Potter said.
The owners of the historic property have been cited for owning or maintaining a dangerous or neglected building, including rotting wood, broken windows and a deteriorated roof. Power lines to the building have been severed and Potter warned Lee that the building should not be altered in any way until Lin appears in court.
"I do not want any significant steps, work or anything done without Mr. Lin being before this court," Potter said.
The stately but decaying property ay 1433 Union Ave. was built in 1907 by Rowland Jones, a Memphis lumber king.
In 1926, the 15,813-square-foot house that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places was acquired by the Nineteenth Century Club, a philanthropic women's organization.
The Union Group won a competitive bidding process in January, beating out a group that offered $350,000 and wanted to turn the property into a women's business center. The three-story, wood frame structure is commercially zoned and sits on 1.2 acres at Union between Kimbrough and Cleveland streets.
Tenet Healthcare Corp. is buying Vanguard Health Systems Inc. for about $1.8 billion, helping to expand its service offerings and broaden its geographic reach, the company has announced.
Tenet, owner of Saint Francis Hospitals in Bartlett and Memphis, will pay $21 per share, a 70 percent premium to Vanguard Health's Friday closing price of $12.37.
Shares of Vanguard Health soared $8.14, or 65.8 percent, to $20.51 in premarket trading Monday.
The companies said Monday that the transaction also includes $2.5 billion in debt and value the entire deal at $4.3 billion. Following the acquisition, Tenet will own 79 hospitals and 157 outpatient facilities. It currently has 49 hospitals and 126 outpatient facilities.
Both boards unanimously approved the deal, which is expected to close before year's end.
Tenet expects annual savings of $100 million to $200 million and for the acquisition to add to earnings in the first year.
Nashville-based Vanguard Health said that its founder, Chairman and CEO Charlie Martin, will join Tenet's board. Vanguard's vice chairman, Keith Pitts, will continue in that position at Tenet.
Central Defense Security, a leading provider of business, retail and warehouse security, raised more than $10,500 to support the Memphis Parks and Neighborhoods' Summer Day Camp program, which is hosted at community centers around the city.
The money will cover the cost for more than 100 campers to attend camp at several locations around the city, as well as allow the city to hire five summer employees. It's the second straight year CDS has held a fundraising drive to raise money to offset camp fees for many Memphis families, including some of the security firm's officers.
Last year, CDS collected more than $7,500, which enabled the firm to sponsor 50 campers at six sites around Memphis. The firm last year also adopted the Riverview Community Center's camp, and CDS employees visited the campers to deliver gifts and play games on what was the company's seventh anniversary. This year, the firm plans to visit campers around the city, as well as participate in several special events at the community centers.

NEW YORK, N.Y. – Since directing Garden State, Zach Braff has continually prepared music in an iTunes playlist titled, For Next Movie. Nine years and hundreds of saved songs later, Braff hopes he's finally making his follow-up to Garden State — if his fans can help.
On Wednesday, in the wake of the enormously successful Veronica Mars Kickstarter campaign, the Scrubs star launched a crowd-funding campaign to make his next movie. For the next 30 days, he'll try to raise $2 million on Kickstarter for Wish I Was Here, a film he co-wrote with his brother Adam.
Braff's movie is the most notable film project since Rob Thomas sent shock waves through Hollywood by turning to fans to resurrect his long-cancelled, cultishly adored private eye TV series. While Kickstarter has for years been a helpful source of financing for small independent films, Veronica Mars showed it could also be a galvanizing platform for bigger names, greater sums and larger scale movies. With 91,585 backers, Veronica Mars pulled in $5.7 million.
"I, like most of Hollywood, stared at the screen with my jaw dropped open, going: 'Oh my God, it does work,'" Braff said in an interview Tuesday ahead the campaign launch.
That it has come to this for Braff to get a chance to direct again is surprising. Garden State, an indie rock-infused story of wayward 20-something life in New Jersey, was a modest hit and tapped a generational nerve. It earned $35.8 million worldwide (more than 10 times its production budget), won a Grammy for best compilation soundtrack and memorably featured Natalie Portman offering her headphones with the promise that a Shins song will "change your life."
But even after Garden State, Braff's efforts to direct a screenplay of his own in between Scrubs seasons never got off the ground. He says finding financing has been the impediment.
He was able find an investor for Wish I Was Here, but not on the terms he seeks. The financier willing to bankroll the film (Braff declines to name the company) wouldn't give Braff final cut or allow him total casting control. Ultimately, Braff is appealing to Kickstarter users for artistic freedom.
"As we were negotiating the deal, this Veronica Mars story broke about what Rob Thomas had accomplished," says Braff. "That's when my producers and I decided to stop talking about trying to wrap our heads around this deal, which didn't seem very fair to us, and decide whether or not we were going to roll the dice and go for this."
In a video on his Kickstarter page, Braff pledges this approach enables him to produce "the truest representation of what I have in my brain." He calls the film "a continuation of the tone" of "Garden State," in which he stars as a struggling actor whose financial trouble leads him to home school his two children.
Braff, 38, isn't new to crowd funding. He has contributed to other projects on Kickstarter and has gotten involved with the micro-loan non-profit Kiva.org.
But he considers his Kickstarter campaign a gamble since he won't be treading on a familiar property like Veronica Mars. Thomas, in the midst of his Kickstarter run in March, told The Associated Press he was skeptical of the model working right now for all $3-$5 million movies.
"When there is a brand name product that people have responded to and want to see there's already a built-in following for it, people can be very successful," Thomas said.
But Braff hopes his name is a draw. It does, after all, count for a lot to fans of Garden State, his nine seasons starring on the hospital sitcom Scrubs and his million-plus Twitter followers.
"I have no idea if it will work," says Braff. "I'm saying to my fan base: Hey, if you like the things I've done before, here's a bunch of information about the next thing I want to do and I'd love you to be a part of it."
Braff hopes to begin production in Los Angeles this August and have the film finished in time to submit it to the Sundance Film Festival. Finding domestic distribution at the festival would follow the path of "Garden State," which Fox Searchlight picked up at Sundance. Braff says he's putting his own money into the film as well, and has interested additional investors if he's able to raise money through Kickstarter.
The levels of backing range from $10 for a continually updated production diary and a digital copy of the screenplay up to $10,000 for a role with a line of dialogue.
Some have derided Kickstarter as "panhandling." Others disputed the Veronica Mars enthusiasm by noting the Warner Bros. series was a corporate-owned project. Contributors pay for particular rewards, but they don't share in the profits. Kickstarter, which declined an interview request for this story, takes a five per cent fee of collected funds. Processing fees of three per cent to five per cent go to Amazon Payments or other processors.
But finding financing for independent films, never a cake walk, has been particularly difficult in recent years as studios have cut back on riskier projects. And after years of struggling in the Hollywood system to follow up "Garden State," Braff is eager to return to the director's chair.
"I love it more than anything," he says. "Making Garden State was the most fun experience of my life."

The Fedora Websites initiative aims to improve Fedora's image and to create the best possible interface for users and contributors on the Internet.
Contributing roles in the Websites Project
About Fedora Websites
The key goals of this effort include:
- Consolidating all key Fedora websites onto one uniform scheme
- Maintaining content that doesn't fall under any particular sub-project
- Generally, making the sites as fun and exciting as the project they represent
In order to better achieve these goals, as well as to benefit the community, the work of this project will involve third-party site maintainers where possible. The direct work of this project is limited to the formal Fedora site.
Work on specific sections of the sites will be coordinated by the appropriate projects. A great deal of coordination will be necessary with the Fedora Infrastructure Team , Fedora Documentation Project and the Fedora Marketing Project .
For a list of community websites, see the CommunityWebsites page.
Join the Fedora Websites Project
To learn how to join Fedora Websites Project, please refer to the Join page.
If you just have a quick fix or suggestion, give Show Us a look and read how to fix bugs on the Fedora Project website.
Bug tracking for the Fedora websites is handled through the Fedora Websites Trac instance at https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-websites/
Alternatively, email webmaster AT fedoraproject DOT org which is handled by websites list .
Bugs that are related to the Fedora Documentation Project can be reported using this template .
A list of active page building requests from other projects within Fedora are located here .
These are projects with specific goals actively being worked on for the F12 release cycle. They're in rough order of the priority discussed at the 2009-06-19 meeting, But remember, you decide priority by voting with your feet and doing things to move these projects forward.
Get people who want the non-default dl option - whether they know it or not - to find and download the right thing with minimal cognitive effort and mouse-clicks.
Mockups - Website_redesign_2009/Mockups/Get.fpo
Team: Sijis Aviles (lead)
Next steps:
in #desktop tab, align button so that its closer to text create new images (#download tab desktop icon and screenshots)
- verify pages work with different browsers/OSes and resolutions
- complete "Download Finish Splash" page - Next Phase
the left side link "Get Fedora (Redesign)", should really be linked from the stg.fp.o/get-fedora page in the "View full list of options for getting Fedora ..." link. I put the link there for ease. text needs to be updated to reflect F13
- links need to be updated to correct locations (i've put in #! as link location fillers)
Note that we are purposely leaving out the header and footer as in the mockup. Those pieces are related more to the complete fp.o site redesign.
Decision making process
Articulate and document the consensus-based decision making process of the websites team.
Team: Ricky Zhou (lead)
Next steps:
- Ricky to send a draft here's-how-to-present-your-patch-to-the-list checklist to the mailing list
Increase the number of first-time Fedora contributors working on F12 by putting a support system behind this page and tweaking it to reflect that.
Team: Mel Chua (lead)
Currently stalled.
Next steps (for the week of June 28, 2009):
- Create a project (wiki) page for this.
- Make a map of "entry routes" to Fedora participation, using websites as a framework - join.fp.o goes to what other pages, which go to what other pages, and so on... and what actions do people take at each page? What sequence of webpages is a new contributor likely to see? Post this to the wiki, send to list for comment.
- List the communication channels used by Fedora contributors (IRC, wiki, lists, etc) and resources that already exist to explain their usage. Post to wiki, send to list.
- List the location, for each team, where newcomers can go and pick up their first encapsulated task (clear objectives, clear deliverable, clear person-to-deliver-it-to).
- interviewing people to find how they got involved with Fedora, and writing up those stories
- Ricky: experiences with packaging/infrastructure/web
- Hiemanshu: web/sysadmin/sysadmin-test
- nb: sysadmin/sysadmin-devel/sysadmin-test/web
- Mel: web, packaging
- Mel: find at least one feedback-writer from each Fedora team
Further down, here are some things we are considering:
- creating "how good is this join process?" heuristics - probably with a lot of help and advice from the design team
Make sure all webpages are translated for the F13 release.
Team: Nobody yet! Please help!
(We aren't actually worrying about this until the end of July, but if you are interested in picking this up and keeping us from panicking then, that would be awesome. Please email the list if you are keen on this, and someone will respond to you.)
User gallery
Create a gallery for mini-interview-style user profiles and stories. This may end up being in conjunction with existing projects/frameworks/pages such as Community.
Team: Hiemanshu Sharma (lead)
Needs a description of the goal.
If you are a Fedora project contributor you now have the chance to start your own fedora project blog. It is hoped that these blogs will allow a variety of contributors a voice brought together under a single look and feel site.
To get a blog simply follow the sign-up process.
Blogs are available to those that meet the following criteria:-
- You need an FAS account.
- Logged in with your new FAS account you need to complete the Contributors License Agreement: How-to complete the CLA
- You also need to be a member of a group that is not directly related to the CLA process - take a look at the sub-projects on the wiki to see which suits you and your own expectations. Alternatively follow the process which starts at Join Fedora and see which groups you may be interested in joining.
And that's really all there is to it, so get blogging!
Team: Nick Bebout (lead), hiemanshu, onekopaka
Next steps (suggestions by mchua)
From the signup screen, when you click the "create blog" button, it takes you to a screen that shows you incorrect urls for your blog (it shows https://blogs.fedoraproject.org/wp/ instead of https://blogs.fedoraproject.org/wp/name-of-your-blog).Fix has been included in puppet (sijis).
- left sidebar: "create a blog" may be better link text than 'sign up'
- once I create a blog there's no obvious way to get to the dashboard. If I log out and log back in,I'm taken to the dashboard; it's just that there's no way to get there from logged-in state on https://blogs.fedoraproject.org except manually typing in the url (https://blogs.fedoraproject.org/wp/name-of-your-blog/wp-admin/))
Coming up with a list of suggested guidelines and tests against which new and modified websites can be evaluated - things like checking that it works on various browsers, screen resolutions, etc. See /Heuristics. Nobody is working on this.
Fedora Insight
Assisting with the launch of Fedora Insight, in particular the CSS-related work that needs to be done before initial launch; after launch, the back-end infrastructure maintenance will transition to the Websites team, with content and workflow remaining the responsibility of Marketing and FWN. Hiemanshu and Tatica are working on the initial release CSS and are good contact points.
For things we're thinking about, images we're kicking around, and posting thoughts that might not yet be well formed, see /Brainstorms - a lot of this discussion also happens on the mailing list.
Mailing List
The mailing list behind this effort is the websites mailing list. All contributors to this effort and interested third-party site maintainers should join this list.
The #fedora-websites channel on freenode is the best place to go for chat.
Details about the regular meetings for the Fedora Websites team can be found on the Meetings page.
CSS and Images
One can find all CSS files and images used in the Fedora sites on the web and we encourage the community to use them directly from our urls in a cascading implementation.
This is especially true when working on official fedoraproject.org domains ( things on this list ):
Fedora CSS in your application
Load the main Fedora CSS file
And then load your custom css file and override elements as needed. Something like:
Fedora Images in your application
Images simply need to be loaded via their 'href' attributes' url:
<a href="http://fedoraproject.org/static/images/banners/paulfrieldstv2.png">
results in a webpage:
Boilerplate responses to common mailing list inquires
Completed Projects
The current agenda for the Fedora Websites initiative is tracked on the Tasks page.

They're doing ok, but I have to be careful. I have to limit how much I crochet at a sitting - taking plenty of breaks and just generally taking it easy on them. If I try to do too much they let me know real quick LOL
Thanks for asking! :D

This is soooo cool! I love crocheting and every time I watch cartoons with our sons, in my head I'm 'designing' the characters. I had a hard time figuring out how to make a pinguin of Madagascar, however. Just a pinguin is easy enough, but it's the special shape that makes it a M.pinguin. Thank you so much for sharing your pattern!
I also love your minion, I designed my own but I had trouble with the glasses. The ones on your minion look perfect.

I started this pattern and so far I finished the body and the white front. But I wonder why I should stuff the white front? After row 21, you state: "If you haven't already begun stuffing , this is a good place to start". But since it is only a front, flat thing, there is nothing to stuff?
By the way, I started the bottom in white, and from row 9 I used the back loops for black and when I finished the black part I took off where I left with white at row 9. That is just because I'm a very lazy crocheter ;).
- June 29, 2011 at 7:11 AM
- WolfDreamer said...
The stuffing instructions were supposed to be in the section of the body, not the white front. I moved them where they belonged :D
Thanks for the heads up on the editing boo-boo LOL

And I finished Skipper! Let me see if I can post a picture here.... nope, doesn't work :(. You can see the picture by clicking on my name (probably) or else, here's the link: http://carlaevelien.blogspot.com/2011/07/pinguins-van-madagascar.html.
After I made the picture I lowered the eyebrows a bit in the middle, on comments from our son (10 years old).
Thank you again for sharing the pattern!

I'll be honest. Cars/Cars2 and all the characters associated with them are copyright Disney/Pixar.
I don't touch anything remotely related to Disney. They are militant about copyright laws and don't hesitate to go after people. Even their OWN paid animators aren't allowed to use the artwork that they do every day for any uses outside of those authorized by Disney.
Not that I don't love Cars (Mater is my hero! LOL) but I won't touch those with a ten foot tow chain! :D

Skipper: Laundry. Why? What's wrong with a penguin and his sack of laundry?
Private: Well nothing, except we don't wear clothes.
Skipper: Well yeah, they're dirty.

I am a little confused on round 7 in the head/body. When you work in the back does that mean that you chain and go back the way you were coming?
- October 14, 2011 at 8:37 AM
- WolfDreamer said...
For that round, you work in the Back Loops of your stitches... here a video tutorial on how to do that: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_6-YsCBH3M
You then will be working through both loops again starting on the next round.
- October 14, 2011 at 12:42 PM
- Vanessa S. said...
Um.. I watched the video and realized that that is what I've been doing for a single crochet. I have already completed 3 amigurumis doing this single crochet. If I don't do rnd 7 in the Back, will it effect the look of the Skipper(and the other 3)?

- Amanda said...
Thank you for this! My son is a huge Penguin fan, and you just made Christmas for him! Your instructions were spot on, and easy to follow, the only difference is, you never said to attach at the ends of rounds, but I did anyway. I'm quite jealous of your talent. I've designed patterns before, but nothing this intensive! You rock! (:
- November 24, 2011 at 12:35 AM
- WolfDreamer said...
I generally don't give instructions to join rounds (unless it's absolutely critical to do so). Most crocheters today are not familiar with joining rounds, they prefer to use the 'continuous round' method.
In general, it's not important to the piece if you join rounds or not, so I leave it up to the crafter which method they're most comfortable with. I do instruct to join rounds if it's important to the piece. :D

Hi, this pattern (and the other penguins as well) look great, perfect for crocheting a penguin for my friend who is expecting a kid in January.
She asked me if I could crochet a penguin for the little one, that should be born in january 2013..
So I might even have time to do them all!
So I was wondering, how many skeins of white and black do you need approximately for one penguin?

Hallo! I tried with this lovely penguin, but I've a problem with wings: they are really long! If I sew them to the "shoulders" then the "hands" lies on the floor and as I pin the hands on the sides, the loops are too big, about twice the picture shows. What's wrong in my Skipper? Can you please help me?

Thank you for all your free patterns!
I've tried contacting you through your Ravelry-account, but I never received a reply, so I decided to try through your personal blog.
On my blog, I sometimes offer Dutch translations of patterns to my reader. Recently I received a request for a translation of this Skipper pattern. I know you state that you do not want someone redistributing your patterns, which is why I want to ask you if you would allow me to make a Dutch translation of your pattern to post on my website? You can find other translations I made here: http://charami.com/vertaalde-patronen/
Thanks in advance.

This row was a little tricky, but in reality, row 35 only has around 16 sc .
the "Chain 2, 2 Dc in same stich as turning " and the "Hdc in next to last sc, 3 Dc in last sc " are meant to be part of the edging to the left and right of Skipers' eyes. Sorry it's a year late but just in case you didn't figure it out! :)

don't know if anyone commented on this previously but on round 9 of the body (black) your round count is 44, but I keep coming up with 48. then a count of 48 comes in 2 or 3 rounds later. I'm only on round 9, will keep going, just thought I'd make sure my count is correct. Thanks!

(Although, all things being equal, maybe I should write it on a chocolate bar.)
Update from john: [rubbing temples] To those of you currently chilling in the Epcot Bunker™, yes, anyone can make a lovely Seder. Apparently there are [insert comment count here] non-Jews doing so.
It's still Jewish.

The time has come to cut into my stash of Echo by Lotta Jansdotter.
What a BEAUTIFUL quilt! Sooo worth cutting into that gorgeous fabric for! LOVE IT!ReplyDelete
Love it Rita. What a great to use the Echo fabric. I haven't decided on how I'll be using mine yet...,ReplyDelete
As always, you make such wonderful, simple, gorgeous quilts!ReplyDelete
Love the color paletteReplyDelete
Wonderful use of the beautiful Echo!ReplyDelete
Love the gingham as sashing, such a cute quilt.ReplyDelete
Just really pretty with that neutral sashing-excellent fabric choice. Looking forward to the final binding and Ta-Da moments. Love your quilts.ReplyDelete
Love how you did this quilt. It all works well together. Great job.ReplyDelete
Love the gingham with this line. My still sits smiling at me and daring me to cut it!ReplyDelete
Wow. Beautiful!ReplyDelete
I love it. What clever color choices.ReplyDelete
I absolutely love that quilt, I love the fabrics and I love the layout of the quilt! I can't wait to see it finished!ReplyDelete
The neutral gingham is wonderful here, love your workReplyDelete
I really REALLY like the checks you used in the sashing.ReplyDelete
Am on the verge of cutting into mine! This looks great and the gingham does the job brilliantly!ReplyDelete
Beautiful! I have yet to cut into my Echo stash as well, but I think I will also use a really simple design to really show this gorgeous fabric. I love how you paired it with the gingham.ReplyDelete
Isn't it weird how difficult it is to cut into our favorite fabric? ha ha! You quilt top is beautiful!!!ReplyDelete
it looks so neat and tidy with all the seams showing through from behind but just out of interest is there a reason why you iron all the seams to the white side and not the colour when the two meet? This is going to be a lovely quilt. the fabrics are so interesting and the sashing works really well.ReplyDelete
Pretty fabrics, pretty colours, pretty quilt.ReplyDelete
Ooh I love that Rita. Really interesting!ReplyDelete
Really really beautiful! Perfect sashing!ReplyDelete
Looks lovely! I haven't been brave enough to hack into mine.ReplyDelete
Ooo so pretty! Love this design with this line!ReplyDelete
I love it!! And the fabrics are yummy!!ReplyDelete
Striking. I've been wondering about this bunch of fabrics. Really do like them, thank you for the inspiration!ReplyDelete
That is so amazing. I love its simplicity in showcasing these fabrics.ReplyDelete
Absolutely gorgeous! The choice of the gingham is spot- (or rather square) on!!ReplyDelete
I love that line of fabrics and love what you're doing with them. I would never have thought of using such a neutral (and gingham, at that) fabric to sash the blocks, but it's just perfect!! But then, that's why I read your blog...ReplyDelete
I love love love that line and you did a great job with that top. So simple, yet so effective. Can't wait to see it quilted and bound.ReplyDelete
That is just beautiful :)ReplyDelete
Oh, gosh - I love, love, love this! I never would have thought of a neutral gingham. So lovely.ReplyDelete
Just don't want to cut into mine1ReplyDelete
Gingham hurts my eyes and looks too busy-- I would NEVER have chosen that as a sashing and I LOVE IT SO MUCH! Oh my goodness.... the things I think I would never like, right?! I'm in awe-- that is GORGEOUS!!!!!!!ReplyDelete
like those fabrics and that quiltReplyDelete
Beautiful quilt and I love the gingham.ReplyDelete
Beautiful quilt and I love the gingham.ReplyDelete
Love that quilt!!ReplyDelete
Awesome! I would never have thought of gingam! What a great idea. It is one fabric I love, but I am never sure how to use it.ReplyDelete
I REALLY like that!ReplyDelete
OMG...dying! So gorgeous! I love how you showcased the prints...just perfect :)ReplyDelete
Wow - the use of gingham is genius! What a beautiful Echo quilt.ReplyDelete
Looks great!! I love the blocks you created to show off the fabric!! Can't wait to see it all finished =DReplyDelete
I really love the fabrics and the use of gingham is awesome and shows them off so well. This is what I love about Modern Quilts as they look so clean.ReplyDelete
Hi Rita,
I just love these fabrics and have been doing a mad look around to try and find them since you posted this quilt top. I also love the pez you added in and there is a bright yellow and white ring you've added and I was wondering what fabric that was as well.
Love love love this so much!
Cheers :)
What a great choice of sashing! Love the gingham. It really shows off the Echo in a new way.ReplyDelete
WOW! I just love what you decided to do with these fabrics! Sometimes I see a fabric collection that I love, but I'm not sure what to do with it because the fabric looks so beautiful already.ReplyDelete
Adorei o que você fez com tecido xadrez,ficou lindo.Tenho uns 12m de um amarelo e branco e não sabia como utilizá-lo,agora já sei.Obrigada pela ideia genial.Beijos.ReplyDelete
More RPQ gorgeousness. Thanks for sharing and inspiring.ReplyDelete

In Search of Herod's Tomb
Josephus tells us that the site of Herodium was the final resting place of the skilled builder and hated king Herod the Great, but Josephus failed to identify the exact location of the tomb. For 35 years, Herod's tomb eluded archaeologist Ehud Netzer. Finally in 2007 a ruined mausoleum and a smashed sarcophagus were uncovered, providing the long-sought answer. But excavations at Herod's magnificent eponymous desert retreat have now revealed much more, including a royal theater box with colorful paintings.

text: Other | 12. August 2011 | posted by Marco Trovatello The first european SpaceTweetup Today we sent off the last invitation letters for the first european SpaceTweetup, jointly organised by DLR and ESA. I cannot make clear enough how happy I am to organise and host this event together with our friends from ESA's communication department. But before I give you a little bit of background information on how the event came about, let me first answer the often heard question: Why a SpaceTweetup? First: Of course it's because NASA already does it and because our american colleagues inspired us, but it's even more because NASA is heading in the right direction. Today, for Science Communication and Public Relations, Social Media has become as important as traditional web and print publishing, TV/Radio broadcasting (and media relations respectively). It helps getting our message across to a wide audience, and occasionally having a few of our Social media followers (as many as capacities allow actually) on site, exclusively showing them the useful things we do with european tax money is even better. It's btw the same we do (and continue to do) with the media for a long, long time. But Social media communication is not just about multiplication, it's also about sharing. Hence we encourage our Tweetup particpants to share what they see (and feel) via social networks: Hands-on Space Science & research for the benefit (and the curiousity) of people young and old - to foster knowledge, education, as they are they key to it all. That's it for the moment regarding the "Why?" - in just a few words. A SpaceTweetup by NASA - in this case on occassion of the Juno Launch at NASA KSC. Image credit: NASA, CC-BY-NC. Back to the organisation of the first european SpaceTweetup: Since quite some years we have an excellent cooperation regarding the German Aerospace Day ("Tag der Luft- und Raumfahrt") not just because ESA's European Astronaut Centre is located on the DLR site in Cologne, but also because ESA and DLR (just as ESA and other national Space Agencies such as CNES or ASI) are generally closely connected, thus also in terms of communication activities. Since the German Aerospace Day is our major general public event with everything from european (and other nation's) astronauts on stage, (space) research aircraft (SOFIA!), hands-on science and much more it should have been obvious to me that this event is literally made for the realisation of our idea of a first european SpaceTweetup. We had planned one already in Summer 2010 for the launch of one of our EO satellites (TanDEM-X) at DLR GSOC, but then scrubbed it due to the really uncomfortable night-launch time (4:14 CEST). But it was not until approx. two months ago we were having an internal meeting and I figured doing it on German Aerospace Day would be a good idea. Two straightforward telecons later our colleagues from ESA were on board and Social Media teams of DLR and ESA were already in the middle of planning. A first draft announcement and programme was quickly conceived, easily approved and here were are today: 418 registrations from 29 countries 60 participants from 14 countries selected, among them not just european countries but also the USA and Canada an excellent programme with lots of (Twitter-)Astros and well-known NASA Social Media colleagues attending, Tours of DLR's research institutes, EAC, SOFIA a Facebook group dedicated to SpaceTweetups (founded by SpaceTweeps!) and so much more - and the event hasn't even started yet. Already now I wish to express my sincere thanks to all those who contribute in organising, hosting and visiting this hopefully fascinating event. Special thanks also to NASA's Office of Communications for inspiring and supporting us. Update, 22 August: 60 Participants from 12 countries confirmed their attendance. We will host people from Austria, Belgium, Canada, France, Great Britain, Germany, Greece, Italy, Macedonia, Netherlands, Spain and the U.S. Update, 13 September: Because of a cancellation we have a new swiss participant. So Switzerland is country no. 13 represented at the SpaceTweetup.

A and Italics
Lucy and Me this weekend at the Rooster Birthday Party
Lucy and Me this weekend at the Rooster Birthday Party
When first I had my daughter I decided to make it a point to not get all girlie.
Bows, dresses, headbands, pink. PINK EVERYTHING.
I even dressed her mostly in The Chief's green hand-me-downs because it seemed really under-the-radar cool. Like I was more about being practical than prissy and that made me above all the frills. My daughter rocks the frogs and giraffes and so what?
Lucy bought me two bags of baby bows. For the first year of her life Lucy's daughter Betsy never went without one jelled onto her little head.
I said, "I don't know."
Lucy said, "Just try it."
I couldn't get them to stay on for more than an hour.
Chup requested I give it up.
I have this . . . well . . . my dad calls it "squishy", I have this squishy body. A soft, I-just-gave-birth body, full of curves and flesh. The cheeks on my face have come to full bloom, as have the stretch marks on my lower abdomen. I have lasting proof of fertility all over my being and until I stop the breast-feeding, this substance is here to stay. I would tell it to get comfortable, but it already has.
A year of this body. This one. This body that makes me feel (secretly sassy).
And insecure too.
And I don't have to tell you (but I will) that Chupie likes my extra curvies.
Lucy is pregnant.
I've been shopping for this body lately. This one. The one that gets to have voluptuous sizes and generous proportions. I take time to consider each piece I purchase carefully: how will it look draped over all of this? I've never done that before. I guess this body is lucky that way.
Lucy is seventeen weeks. Not showing yet. Petite and pretty and strong, my sister.
I want Ever to always love her body. I want her pronounced cheeks to always entertain the crowds like they do now. I want to always count the rings on her thighs as a delightful pastime. I want her to be her full self, spiritually and physically.
The more I love her, funny enough, the more I love my body for making her.
All the extra of me is for Ever. But maybe not, forever. I don't know.
Isn't that poetic?
What? A Close Up? What? With drool? Don't ask twice . . .
I have started putting bows on Ever.
Lucy is having a boy.
announcing . . . sister in law week:
I am c jane and I had fun writing this post .

By E.G. Nadhan, HP Enterprise Services
Rewind two decades and visualize what a forward-thinking prediction would have looked like then — IT is headed towards a technology agnostic, service-based applications and infrastructure environment, consumed when needed, with usage-based chargeback models in place for elastic resources. A forward thinking tweet would have simply said – IT is headed for the Cloud. These concepts have steadily evolved within applications first with virtualization expediting their evolution within infrastructure across enterprises. Thus, IT has followed an evolutionary pattern over the years forcing enterprises to continuously revisit their overall strategy.
What started as SOA has evolved into the Cloud. Here are five tell-tale signs:
- As-a-service model: Application interfaces being exposed as services in a standardized fashion were the technical foundation to SOA. This concept was slowly but steadily extended to the infrastructure environment leading to IaaS and eventually, [pick a letter of your choice]aaS. Infrastructure components, provisioned as services, had to be taken into account as part of the overall SOA strategy. Given the vital role of IaaS within the Cloud, a holistic SOA enterprise-wide SOA strategy is essential for successful Cloud deployment.
- Location transparency: Prior to service orientation, applications had to be aware of the logistics of information sources. Service orientation introduced location transparency so that the specifics of the physical location where the services were executed did not matter as much. Extending this paradigm, Cloud leverages the available resources as and when needed for execution of the services provided.
- Virtualization: Service orientation acted as a catalyst for virtualization of application interfaces wherein the standardization of the interfaces was given more importance than the actual execution of the services. Virtualization was extended to infrastructure components facilitating their rapid provisioning as long as it met the experience expectations of the consumers.
- Hardware: IaaS provisioning based on virtualization along with the partitioning of existing physical hardware into logically consumable segments resulted in hardware being shared across multiple applications. Cloud extends this notion into a pool of hardware resources being shared across multiple applications.
- Chargeback: SOA was initially focused on service implementation after which the focus shifted to SOA Governance and SOA Management including the tracking of metrics and chargeback mechanism. Cloud is following a similar model, which is why the challenges of metering and chargeback mechanisms that IT is dealing with in the Cloud are fundamentally similar to monitoring service consumption across the enterprise.
These are my tell-tale signs. I would be very interested to know about practical instances of similar signs on your end.
It is no surprise that the very first Cloud technical standard published by The Open Group — Service Oriented Cloud Computing Infrastructure – initially started as the Service Oriented Infrastructure (SOI) project within The Open Group SOA Work Group. As its co-chair, I had requested extending SOI into the Open Group Cloud Work Group when it was formed making it a joint project across both work groups. Today, you will see how the SOCCI technical standard calls out the evolution of SOI into SOCCI for the Cloud.
