I got back on Wednesday (sorry I didn't have a chance to say goodbye to everyone, since I left at around 4pm), had some stuff to do for my University professors (like give another talk as part of NCD Conference), and now I need to devote myself to preparing for a couple of exams (like Mathematical Analysis 2 and Compilers and Interpreters).
That means that my ToDo list will have to wait a bit (even if it has grown substantially during 6UADEC (like taking a look at Sun's improvements to Carlos' Language and Culture capplet, looking at their changes for supporting intltool-merge at install time, improving xml2po further, working on Evolution l10n stuff I discussed with the very pleasant Harish, etc.). I'm not out of my e-mail slump just yet, and I don't expect it to end before June times out, so bear with me, please.
GUADEC was very much fun to visit, and I'm sure coming again next year to, maybe, Barcelona :)—provided it doesn't fall on the same date as my exams do. Unfortunately, some of the guys I really looked forward to meeting didn't show up, like Carlos Perelló Marín, Jordi Mallach, or Dafydd Harries (I even spelled his name out correctly in my first attempt to find his page on Google :). Of course, I regret for everybody else who didn't show up, and thank to everyone else who did show up: very nice to meet you all guys!
Find Glynn! (Seth is my GUADEC talk hero)
I've finally put up all my photos (well, not all of them, I cut the airport crap out which is simply boring, and a couple of nice photos with a certain girl :) right here, so go find yourself there! Note that if you need full 2272×1704 versions, just strip the query string from the screen-sized versions.
Edit: because my server got overloaded with photo requests, I had to change configuration a bit: to get full images now, just strip the "cache/screen/" part from URLs.

The Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) is an intergovernmental body entirely dedicated to promoting gender equality and empowering women. Established in 1946, the Commission meets in New York in late February or early March each year to draft Agreed Conclusions or recommendations for strengthening gender equality, development and peace.
In 2000, a comprehensive review and appraisal of progress made in the implementation of the Platform for Action was undertaken by the twenty-third special session of the General Assembly (Beijing +5) entitled "Women 2000: gender equality, development and peace for the twenty-first century." The Assembly adopted a Political Declaration and Further Actions and Initiatives to Implement the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action (the Outcome Document). The Commission's current and future work, as determined by its multi-year programme of work is closely related to both the Platform for Action and the Outcome Document so as to ensure their effective implementation. To read a short history of the Commission on the Status of Women please click here.
Women, Peace and Security Programme leads WILPF's engagement with the commission by facilitating the participation and advocacy of grassroots women peace leaders who speak truth to power. The 62nd Session of CSW will be held from March 12-23 at the United Nations Headquarters in New York. The priority theme of the 2017 commission will be Women's Economic Empowerment in the Changing World of Work

(Great Authors of World Literature, Critical Edition)
Agnes Smedley wanted to be known, and primarily is known, as an independent American radical, a working-class feminist, and a writer who served the causes in which she believed. She was born in Campground, Missouri, on February 23, 1892, the daughter of a farmer and jack-of-all-trades, Charles Smedley, and his wife, Sarah Ralls. Smedley's lifelong commitment to the causes of the poor and to feminism were fueled by the wretched life she experienced as a child. Her family moved constantly. Their constant financial instability caused both parents to suffer, something they, at times, passed on to their children. Her mother died at an early age from the cumulative effects of poverty and overwork.
With the help of relatives, Smedley escaped from this life by getting an eighth-grade education and becoming a schoolteacher. At one of her jobs she met the sister of Ernest Brundin, who would later become Smedley's first husband, and she moved with the two of them to California, where they all became involved in radical political movements. Smedley learned about the anti-imperialist Indian national independence movement, about anarchism and socialism from Emma Goldman, and about Margaret Sanger's birth control movement. While she admired the cultural sophistication of the Brundins, transplanted New Yorkers, she remained throughout her life a rough, earthy, outspoken person. Eventually she married Ernest Brundin, but they were temperamentally unsuited to each other. After their divorce, Smedley moved to New York City, where she lived among a generation of radicals and artists that made Greenwich Village famous.
In New York, Smedley became deeply involved in politics. She helped to establish birth control clinics, studied Indian culture, and worked at establishing herself as a journalist. There she met Virendranath Chattopadhyaya, who was to become her teacher and, later, her common-law husband. With him she traveled to Germany and the Soviet Union and worked in exile for Indian independence from England.
In 1927 Smedley left "Chatto" for good, taking refuge in Denmark, where she wrote her first book, Daughter of Earth, a thinly disguised autobiographical novel. It summarizes her life powerfully and melodramatically but in unsophisticated language. (She continues this...

Answers :
Start with the first disc of the OS, then follow the on screen instruction,
usually default is good.
if you have a USB enclosure for the drive(cheap, less than 20$) you can also use the trial version of acronis true image to clone the hard disk to the new one and then installing it without having to reinstall anything.

In addition he serves as the NRL STILO (S&T Intelligence Liaison Officer) and is tasked to ensure that the intelligence community can leverage and be informed by the scientific and technical investments and capabilities of NRL.
He holds a bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Maryland, a master's degree in Space Systems, a doctorate in Aeronautics, Astronautics and Propulsion from George Washington University, a master's in Electrical Engineering from the Johns Hopkins University, and a master's in National Security and Strategic Studies from the Naval War College.

Oh, it's been a long time coming this year. Yes, there have been tasters, a warm day or three, the hazy sound of a lonesome bumble bee on the wing, but just as we went to put away our mittens and our heavy winter coats, there was a fresh burst of arctic air to keep us down and chilled. But now the plants are growing like the wind (as are the weeds), the birds are singing their hearts out and I am making a meal out of our small garden. It's true the tomatoes are far from being harvestable but I can see the first beans, there are some little stalks of tender ruburb and celery, the chive flowers are ready for my goat's cheese salad, the mint ready for iced teas and the lettuce leaves/herbs are being used everyday in sandwiches, bagels and salads.
You can see how my garden grows above, with the help of the Green Room's organic anti snail pellets and a local toad or three to keep those slugs at bay and those plants are really powering along, which just shows you what you can do with a few metres and some earth. And below ladies, gentlemen, girls and boys is my very own organic compost (made with the help of quite a few hundreds of kindly worms) which will go into my little veggie gardens and enrich the soil. You can just see the traces of egg shells for that my good people, is our family left-overs, which I place diligently into my worm composters every morning.
I thought my clever little worms had frozen to death over that long winter but I have a healthy bin of them, breaking down the family scraps although I do worry about their coffee intake. They must be a little buzzy in there. Everything apart from bread, dairy products, meat or fish goes into 2 bins and therefore replenishes our garden after it is broken down – wonderful. No composter? Never fear,for as a fabulous young woman explained the other day, blend up your leftovers (not stones or bones) and simply dig them into the garden directly but at least 6 inches away from the nearest tree! I managed to get on a http://www.cityplot.org edible gardens workshop this month and learned so much from the charming Suzanne about how little soil we actually need to grown a lettuce, 5 cms and a carrot, 7 cms and how we can all grow micro greens and our own sprouts. So, there is not excuse, grow we must!
Lastly, this month I purchased a dehydrator which has been loads of fun. I have been dehydrating mangos from the market, cherries, peaches, strawberries, tomatoes, bananas and apples. They are a taste revolution and it's as easy as cutting them up really. I continue to experiment but so far I can thoroughly recommend this new generation of small 5 tray dehydrators ( I got mine from the Sligro wholesale stores but am willing to bet that Amazon will probably do them cheaply).
Above, strawberries, white fleshed wildman peaches (are there any other), cherries, strawbs, and mango. Below cherry tomatoes in olive oil, thyme and rosemary, sprinkled with sea salt and black pepper. It's fun, easy and delish and it makes me kinda feel a bit Heston Blumenthal if you know what I mean. Next time garlic and ginger tofu with bulgar salad and pomegranate pearly dressing! Enjoy, enjoy!

In one of his first official acts as a member of the First Court of Appeals, freshman Justice Russell Lloyd on January 15, 2015 denied a motion to transfer a case from the First to the Fourteenth Court of Appeals, which was filed to avoid a conflict of interest. The motion was not objected to by the other party in the appeal. Both appellate courts sit in Houston, and hear cases from the same counties, which are assigned randomly to one or the other.
Attorney Orjanel Lewis requested the transfer after an appeal in which his firm - RADACK AND BORUNDA, P.C. - represents a medical malpractice plaintiff who had summary judgment entered against her by a Harris County District Court was assigned to the First Court of Appeals. The transfer was sought because Jeremy Radack, a name partner and shareholder of the law firm that handles the appeal for the unsuccessful plaintiff in the trial court, is the son of Sherry Radack, the First Court's Chief Justice.
In denying the motion in a short order, Judge Lloyd acted individually, rather for the court. He did not give a reason, other than to cite to the rules governing transfer, disqualification, and recusal.
|RADACK AND BORUNDA, P.C. - Public Information
Attorneys are notoriously loath to file recusal motions against sitting judges because they do not want to question the impartiality of a judge before whom they may appear in the future, and make themselves unpopular.
Justice Russell Lloyd took office January 1, 2015, replacing Jim Sharp, who lost his re-election bid. Justice Lloyd does not yet have an official biography on the First Court of Appeal's website (as of 1/21/2015). Attorney Russell T. Lloyd's profile on file with the State Bar of Texas was last certified on 04/17/2014 and reflects that he practiced law as a solo. He received his law license in 1978 after earning his law degree from the University of Texas that same year. Judge Lloyd's LinkedIn profile provides much more detailed information about his background.

If Manchester United still contain some romance despite the materialism of the owners, they will picture themselves as champions against the odds. That outcome is unlikely but they must seek a win at Sunderland and hope, in particular, to take an early lead that puts strain on Manchester City, who top the table solely on goal difference. At least Sir Alex Ferguson's side has easily the best away record in the Premier League this season, having won 12 times on their travels and taken a total of 39 points from a possible 54.

Sleep my way to the top?
A long time ago when I was an aspiring classical musician a friend gave me some advice that stuck with me. He said, "get a boyfriend who is successful in the field you want to succeed in" The basic concept is you are who you hang out with, the "boyfriend" issue regardless, and updated for the 21st century. Time went by, I made the decisions I made, I got into radio. Now the internet has completely changed the work I do.
Back in the old days kids
When I was hired at KPIG (the second time) there were no MP3's, we were just starting to use digital editing to make commercials. The disc jockeys were playing mostly CD's and still used tape carts to play commercials that looked like 8 track tapes. They used two track tape that would play in a special tape machine and stop and re cue the tape to play again.. I worked at KTOM in the 80's and the entire library was on tape cart. Specialty shows usually arrived on vinyl. We sliced tape with a razor blade to edit.
No love from the radio world for KPIG
Ironically KPIG was open to newer technology long before many "real" radio stations. to explain the difference between "real" radio and KPIG is that radio had a culture that was extremely dogmatic. DJ's took pride in how tightly they ran their shows, even a fraction of a second of dead air was unacceptable. Radio people were the stars of their towns, stations had a news department, there were rules, some unspoken. KPIG's success was a slap in the face to the people who worked hard to make slick radio. Laura Ellen, the program director, didnt always get the love she deserved with her peers.
Unfortunately, those early years of digitizing KPIG were pretty rough. Staff correctly feared that putting the station in the hands of computers would mean an end to DJ shifts, tighten up the flow, and kill what made the station different. Professional broadcasting equipment took a couple of years to come around, and in the interim we had some failed experiments and bad consumer grade solutions or were beta testing software and hardware.
KPIG now runs on state of the art automation that is easy to administer, schedule, make tasty segues, (even a KPIG disk jockey likes that) and is incredibly expensive. While the company is shoving it's employees out the door, KPIG has actually managed to add some live shifts back in. Which brings me full circle back to American business and it's approach to middle management.
Where did America's talent go?
With the lay off at KPIG and in the months after the company lost both production directors for five FM's and an AM, the VP of operations quit, they reduced most air talent and some administrative help to part time situations. People said, "how can a radio station run without somebody to manage production of commercials?'
and then it got bad
The program director for KPIG, Laura Ellen Hopper made a speedy conversion to the next plain which is full of pretty horses and yodeling cowboys in 2007. They did not replace her. Not that is would have been simple to find somebody to fill her shoes.
Running a radio station without a program director Is like running a Rite Aid store and letting the employees decide what products to sell. Laura had been spent 60 hours a week for 40 years making KPIG sound free form and un formatted. If she was here now she'd point a claw like finger bent with RA at you and shrilly inform you of how hard it was to keep the suits from farggin the place up. Whether you asked or not.
So there we are.
American companies have laid off, outsourced, neglected, underpaid the people who know how to run them. People with degrees and experience are delivering pizzas. Who's left to make creative business decisions?
You can't write comedy like this
My Brother is a network administrator for a international cell phone company serving 52 million customers world wide. He works in a giant telephone hub in the central valley. Keeping some of the most powerful phone servicing equipment on the planet going. It took me a few minutes the other night to absorb when he said they'd had no phone service in the building for several days. It's not that they don't know how to solve their phone problems, it's that they cant decide who's job it is. He also told me that they decided to use AT&T to handle business DSL for the building. Im sure asking a competitor to put in internet service makes business sense. I could be wrong. Maybe the executives dont know what their big expensive machines do. He has also told me stories about fed exing printer paper to another office because the office misjudged it's needs and had no budget for more. Do the math on the price of paper and the price of fed ex.
So now I have my own company
Such as it is. and going to school to learn some new stuff. and selling wine cause the money is good. I was in the computer lab at Cabrillo last night and being the accomplished eves dropper I am, was listening to a lady lecture a younger person on graphics. I couldnt figure out who was tutoring who until it became apparent she is a client. She has gone to the college to get a student to do work for her marketing business. She kicking this poor kid around and telling him every few minutes how she is doing him a favor. The other day I saw an audio job that somebody posted that said: "we recorded our program on a headset, your job is to make it sound better." nope, not for me.
measure twice, cut once
Let's do this stuff right the first time and make it sound good! and pay me at least minimum wage for the top knotch advanced editing mixing, formatiing I do. Isnt it interesting I have to add "at least minimum wage" into my lofty standards? This is because people post jobs saying, "I have 90 minutes of audio from a seminar where the volume changes up and down,there are some dead spots, buzzing and coughing. It's a simple job that should take only a few minutes, I'll pay you $10 to fix it." . This is like everything else in the world that creates your marketing brand. Spending more energy on it pays off. which reminds me, It's way past time for a new hair do.
Speaking of appearances
My Friend Rose took me out to dinner the other night. I arrived at her house and she spread out gift certificates to some of the most hoity toity places in Aptos She and Neil dine out a lot, so she had bid on and won dining opportunities at the Aptos chamber fund raiser. Dang! I picked out a certificate for Ma Masion on Soquel Drive. I've met the owners several times in ad production, nice people. Pricey but worth it. Try the Smoked salmon salad. I also had scallops, Rose had Duck. The restaurant is pretty. I'd do it again. I like hanging out with Rose because she and I have some great things to talk about and similar family experiences, came from similar rural western environments, and we get along well. Rose and Neil are good examples of doing things well, I need this influence, Im meeting more and more people that are real, and a good influence on me.
The world moves on
When I worked at KPIG It was easy to hide in the production room, blast off to the next thing my children needed. The commute was killing me, and sorry to say I wasnt producing awesome stuff. My best work would be on the air for less time than it took for me to create it.
There were times when the tools were so poor it didnt even matter. It is not likely I would find a radio job in a town I'd like to live in with state of the art equipment, an ad design team that would work hard on designing effective commercials for it's clients. In my brief foray into print, they actually tried harder. And even then I wouldnt say the advertising was a great deal for the client.
Oh, my Boyfriend? He has a degree from UCSC. Helped design the GPS system in its infancy, and worked in the travel industry for many years. He is an extremely hard worker and a great employee. He works at Orchard Supply Hardware.

How to avoid oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleConnection
i'am new in Java but recently i've got a project on support.
solution worked on jvm 1.4, now on 1.7.
Respectively, class oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleConnection has been used.
Now I need class oracle.jdbc.OracleConnection to use CLOB.createTemporary() but...I can't.
According to this article, it's enough to replace in code and config files one class declaration on another. But NO. I replaced all of them in all config files and anyway, there was only oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleConnection has been created. (there is no explicit declaration of connection type in code, everything is configured in config files)
Project uses marven, mybatis. I reloaded comp. Nothing changed
May be there is some java cache? I do not know...
Anybody knows?

Re: How to avoid oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleConnection
Yes well that "article" (API documentation...) that you refer to assumes that you know what you are doing. Likely you also need to update the OJDBC driver jar to one compatible with Java 7."Syntactic sugar causes cancer of the semicolon." -- Alan Perlis

Re: How to avoid oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleConnection
another trouble is that client uses oracle 9
ojdbc14-188.8.131.52.jar contains both classes: both oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleConnection (for backward compatibility) and oracle.jdbc.OracleConnection
the matter is what should i do to use second one instead of first one.
(JDBC Driver Downloads page does not contain driver for oracle 9 already)

Re: How to avoid oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleConnection
I solved the issue!
This thread helped me: https://forums.oracle.com/thread/556426 ("I have to use classes12.zip for it to work.")
The main problem was jdbc driver - I tried all ones that I found on oracle download page and the only driver that maked the job was classes12.jar (Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0)). I replaced it in "ORACLE_HOME\jdbc\lib\" and in "apache-tomcat\lib\"
Every driver has its own bugs and i did also different things so i can't say that just driver replacemet is enough. F.e. I changed database timezone, run tzupdater, set vm param -Duser.timezone="-07:00", may be something else.
Thanks a lot everybody!

Group booking enquiry near Battersea Park Children's Zoo
More about the Battersea Park Children's Zoo
Battersea Park Children's Zoo is home to a host of glorious creatures. There are farmyard animals, lemurs, otters and monkeys, as well as peacocks which roam the enclosure. It is a beautiful spot, and a friendly well-run attraction which was saved from closure after a year-long struggle between the council and local residents. Although comparatively small, Battersea Park Children's Zoo is a wonderful institution. The animals are clearly happy in their, mainly outdoor, accommodation and the setting itself is magical. There's also the opportunity to have fun and learn in the Adventure Playground and sit on a fire engine or tractor. This little-known gem is a great place to go with younger children as part of a stroll round the Battersea area. The zoo entrance is at Chelsea Gate on Queenstown Road, Battersea Park, near the Peace Pagoda close to the river.

Shell and Virent, a Wisconsin company, announced this week they had made major progress on developing a sugar-based alternative to gasoline The fuel would hold several advantages over corn-based ethanol, according to the companies.
From the Houston Chronicle: "Biogasoline has higher energy content, making it more fuel-efficient than ethanol. It can also be used in high concentrations without modifying conventional gasoline engines, and can be stored and transported in existing oil industry infrastructure, the companies said."
Luis Scoffone, vice president of alternative energies at Shell, cautioned however that biogasoline is still in its early days of development and is just one of many "alternative fuel pathways" the company is exploring, the Chronicle reports.
Conventional wisdom holds that the bitterness of the health debate "poisons the well" for the push to put a cap on carbon dioxide. But overseas an alternative view is emerging.
BBC's Richard Black ruminates on the topic. While the road will still be difficult passage of healthcare reform Black says President Barack ObamaBarack Hussein ObamaRivals and consumers will rein in Facebook, not regulation Obamas send handwritten note to Parkland students: 'We will be there for you' Water has experienced a decade of bipartisan success MORE's victory may his administration's efforts to pass climate legislation.
Kate Mackenzie of the Financial Times meanwhile notes a widely circulated critique of Republicans by Republican David Frum, who warned that his party made a mistake by dealing on healthcare reform.
On climate change there may be even more reason to compromise, Mackenzie writes.
"The advantages of offering to share the marbles could be considerable: many of the Republican party's biggest donors are in the oil and gas industry, and opposition Senators could have huge influence in shaping the final bill if they were able to provide the votes to get it through Congress."

FFS - what did I start.... who the hell said I was looking down on anyone ..
I thought the picture was cool and was trying to share that, thought I write up a bit about what I thought of it... anyway ... won't bother my arse in the future.
maybe didn't come across right ... I would have never considered the 320d before (my own opinion, I choose bigger engines as typically they are cheaper on the used market (due to running costs) and I don't do a lot of miles in the BMW) .. maybe snob wasn't the right word. The point was I was well impressed with this - the engine, the finish etc.. and of course the mpg, this was a lovely car ... and the first point was - I'm now looking for one for my wife!
and the 320d sounds much better than my 330i at the minute

I have a Pre LCI too and my H8 bulbs are better than the yellow ones but nowhere near as good as the LCI ones, i think its hard impossible to get the same look.
I've got an 320d too. I could of got a 330d or 335d but I do lots of regular long trips to Scotland and London and im loving the mpg i get. Everyone's situation is different
ohno ... just ordered a set of the replica 313's ... couldn't justify the price for the OEM ones, so maybe won't feel soo bad.
I agree with you on the H8... did a lot of reading around - I'll make do for now... but they look great on the LCI cars.
My wife does a lot more miles than me and the 320d makes sense for the reasons you pointed out ... just going to be a while to save up for one
@MLAM .. def noticed some quality improvements on the LCI car, but could just have been because it had the 'new car' feel and smell... really like the LCI front - and in my opinion much nicer than the 4-er.

This doesn't happen with Adsense. Adsense & Chitika show up on the same page.
Is there something I don't know about or is it just

Exclusivity. For any webpage that includes the Ad Code, you agree not to display or link to any other advertising (including but not limited to any listing) that is mapped to or responds to the content of the Ad Page.
Do not know if Chitika is displayed by using keywords in your content ie: mapped to or responds to the content but if so that is a violation of T%C
My articles used to contain 2 adsense blocks. I have since replaced the bottom (lower paying AS block) with the Chitika block.
The CTR for my top AdSense block went up 30% (of course Smart Pricing killed any extra income) but the Chitika block below is blowing the old bottom AdSense block out of the water... generally about 5x more revenue.

Producers behind Vincent D'Onofrio's new serial killer movie Chained have lost their U.S. ratings appeal and the film will be released with a restrictive Nc-17 tag.
Motion Picture Association of America censors ruled the thriller was too violent for an R rating and they slapped the film, directed by David Lynch's daughter Jennifer, with a dreaded Nc-17, which bans anyone aged 17 and under from viewing the movie.
Executives at distributors Anchor Bay Entertainment battled the decision but had their appeal rejected on Tuesday (01May12).
It's the second time in six weeks that an appeals board for the Mpaa's Classification and Rating Administration has decided to stick with an Nc-17 on an independent movie - Matthew MCConaughey's new film Killer Joe also landed an Nc-17 tag for "graphic aberrant content involving violence and sexuality, and a scene of brutality" in March (12).

Little fish will be hiding in some people's Christmas trees, but not to worry. The old, dead trees are at the bottom of lakes.
Julia Nave, who holds a fisheries biology scholarship for the summer, and fisheries biologist Pete Schneider of the U.S. Forest Service in Juneau, were among several people Friday who placed the trees in the Dredge Lakes area.
Some lakes there, between Back Loop Road and the Mendenhall Glacier, are important rearing habitat for coho salmon. The fish arrive from the ocean in the fall, swim to the headwaters of Dredge Creek and work their way down to the Dredge Lakes area, Schneider said.
Fish born there in the spring stay for a couple of years before heading out to sea, he said.
In the meantime, the fry have to keep from getting eaten. Hence the underwater trees. About 100 fry can hide out in one tree, Schneider said.
Nave, who graduated from Juneau-Douglas High School this spring, is one of 63 students in the nationwide Hutton Junior Fisheries Biology Program, sponsored by the American Fisheries Society and funded by several government agencies.
The Juneau Ranger District agreed to participate this year and drummed up interest from local students.
Schneider, who mentored a student in 2001, said it helped him focus on the basics of fisheries biology by explaining to the student the purpose of projects.
"'You're going to help me on this project, and this is why we're doing the project,' " he said.
Nave's scholarship is for $3,000 and involves at least eight weeks of work, such as lugging trees into Moose Lake, helping with a hooligan project in Berners Bay, and surveying amphibians on Admiralty Island, which Nave seemed doubtful about.
"Actually, there's lots of newts out there," Schneider said, his face brightening. "It's kind of fun."
The scholarship is basically a good outdoors job that beats working in a gift shop, Nave said.
She became interested in fisheries biology in Clay Good's oceanography course. Nave and other students incubated coho in Steep Creek. But Nave, 17, isn't sure she'll study biology in college. She's going to spend a year in Europe first.
On Friday, she and Schneider took a pickup into the Dredge Lakes area and boosted into the truck bed some ruddy, skeletal Christmas trees that had been spared from the landfill's chipper.
Nave asked Schneider if they were going to submerge any trees in the middle of the lake.
"You want to put it where the fry hang out," he said. "They hang out on the edges."
Nave grabbed two trees at the base of their trunks, dragged them down the bank of Moose Lake and waded in, joining Schneider. He pointed out a place where salmon had dug a redd, a nest for eggs.
"If they sense enough stream flow coming in that will deliver a steady stream of oxygen, they'll choose that as a site to deposit their eggs," Schneider said.
It was one of those clammy mornings when the clouds are very low, hiding the mountains, and the water is still. The green trees around the lakes provided the only bright color.
Schneider is relatively young, 34, but joked that he felt old by comparison. Still, they were comfortable in each other's company. On his dashboard, Schneider has a bobbing pair of sumo wrestlers, which one would guess is not government-issue.
Walking down the dirt road next to the lake, Schneider reached down, claimed a nagoonberry and offered it to Nave. She wondered aloud if it was poisonous.
"I'm pretty sure they're all right," Schneider said.
"Pretty sure?"
"Just take a little bite then," Schneider suggested.
As they were filling sandbags at the lakeshore - Nave volunteered to shovel - Schneider teased her about teenagers' short attention spans.
"Did you read the article? Or maybe you started it and didn't finish it," he said.
Nave waded out in the lake and tried draping a sandbag over the tree trunk, but it slipped off and the tree broke the surface. Then she tied the bag on the trunk and walked into water over her waist, but the tree kept popping up.
Fisheries biology isn't all glory, Schneider advised.

Wednesday December 3, 1828
Volume 1 No. 40
Page 2 Col. 3a
Patrons of the Cherokee Phoenix are informed by the Editor, that he has resigned, and expects soon, to take a final leave of his readers. He tenders his thanks to those of his Countrymen, and friends of Indians abroad, who have interested themselves in the prosperity of the paper, which he has had the honor of conducting. The task has been an arduous, nevertheless and interesting, one, because the good of the Cherokees, and other Indians was its object; and nothing but imperious duty would now induce him to leave the field of his labours (sic). For years, his health has been precarious, and since the commencement of the Phoenix, it has been on a gradual decline, owing to the excessive confinement, which he has been obliged to endure. It was his hope that he would be relieved by the appointment of an assistant in the Cherokee department, by the late General Council, which however adjourned without relieving him in any way. An alternative was then left, whether to continue as formerly, with increased duties, and with his present state of health, or to resign, and make way for another person, perhaps better calculated to fill the office of Editor of the Cherokee Phoenix? He has chosen the latter.- In leaving the paper, which has, since its commencement lain near his heart, he does, by no means, forsake the interest of his Countrymen. That will still be his favorite object. Though not acting publicly, and under less responsibilities, he expects to be engaged for the moral improvement of his kindred according to the flesh.
There never was perhaps, in the history of Indians, a time, when instruction
may be inculcated to better advantage, than at present. The introduction
of letters among the Cherokees, which has progressed with unparalleled rapidity,
and the printing press may do wonders here as it has done in other nations.
The power of the press has been justly acknowledged. It is the safe guard
of liberty, civil and religious-the medium of intelligence, and when under suitable
regulations it is the scourge of vice, and the protector of virtue. An
experiment is now making among us, whether the press established in this place
will have its ordinary effects. Let a fair trial be made-let the Phoenix be
fostered with care by the inhabitants of this Nation, and encouraged and
patronized by friends of Indians abroad. Its past patronage has been too
limited-we sincerely hope it will be increased, and that the new Editor, whoever
he may be,(if worthy of encouragement) will receive better support from the
public and the citizens of the Cherokee Nation, than that with which the subscriber
has been favoured (sic).

Still a pension problem
Still a pension problem
While Proposition B failed, the problem of escalating city employee pension and benefit costs won't disappear. Until the city's political leadership deals with this financial sinkhole, the situation will only get worse, consuming scarce funding that could otherwise support education, law enforcement, parks and recreation programs, public health and other basic services.
By this time next year, retiree pension costs will grow by $60 million to $80 million over the $373 million spent this year. City health care coverage for its employees will grow by $45 million, and the city's unfunded liability will increase by $300 million. Already, city employee benefits absorb one of every six tax dollars. Soon it will be one of three dollars. These costs are unsustainable.
With next year's expected $500 million deficit, San Francisco residents can expect higher fees and fines, but even raising metered parking tickets to $200 won't keep up with these costs.
Many San Franciscans are now aware how much is being spent on pensions and benefits. Rather than celebrating the defeat of Prop. B, the city employee unions and elected officials who opposed it had better get to work on a solution. If they don't, the only bad medicine San Franciscans will experience is bankruptcy.

The DVLA has sent me a summons indicating that I must attend at Abergavenny Magistrates' Court for an offence of failing to notify them of the change in ownership of my car. I sold the vehicle some time ago but also sent the necessary written confirmation to the DVLA in Swansea informing them that I disposed of the car. The DVLA say that they did not receive the paperwork. What should I do at the magistrates' court?
You have a defence to the charge of failing to notify the change in ownership if you notified the DVLA in writing of the disposal. It will be important to establish the date that you sent the notification to the DVLA. Perhaps you can remember the date or there is some other compelling evidence that will help establish when the information was sent. For instance, if you posted the details at a post office did you purchase any other items using your debit card? Your bank statement would then help with the date.
It is likely that you will have to present this evidence to the magistrates' court having pleaded not guilty. In addition, provided you sent the information via registered delivery or first case post, you will be able to use the Criminal Procedure Rules on service of documents in criminal cases to your advantage. It would also be worthwhile disclosing your defence to the DVLA prosecution.
I am due to attend court in respect of a motoring offence. The court paperwork says that I must bring my driving licence to court but I cannot find it. There is not enough time to apply for a new licence from the DVLA. What will happen?
Any court imposing a sentence for any motoring offence involving disqualification or the imposition of penalty points will need to have access to your driving history. The Road Traffic Act provides that a motorist must produce a driving licence to the court. Failure to produce a licence is in fact an offence and a licence can be suspended until it is produced. In practice however, magistrates' courts now have access to the DVLA computer records and hence your driving history. It would therefore be unlikely that the court would take issue with the fact that you have misplaced your licence. If you subsequently find your driving licence, you should send it to the DVLA in Swansea for any penalty points to be endorsed upon it.

Gil Watson Art
About Me
Original art is what I specialize in, in my painting, sculpture and wall art. The same holds true for my furniture. Every piece I do is unique and one of a kind. Clients normally give me an idea of the style and type of artwork they would ike to see incorporated in their furniture piece, based on this input I will then provide them with a detailed design and once they are completely satisfied I will then move forward to create a unique hand crafted, hand carved one of a kind custom furniture piece. My pieces range from entrance ways doors to fireplace mantles to benchs, tables etc. If you can dream it I can do it.
Sculpting in all dimensions and any size is my true passion. I enjoy working in all subject matter, from the human anatomy to the natural world and abstract themes.
Painting is another passion of mine. I just don't seem to have enough time to do a lot of fine art painting as when I am painting I like to put in as much detail into my theme as possible and this takes time. I am comfortable with painting oils or acrylics. The example opposite is of a redfish painting I completed using acrylics. Prints of this one are also available.
Stump carving are always very effective and a good way transform a plain old stump in your yard into a beautiful piece of art. I first chainsaw the stump, then do all the finer details using hand chisels. The themes on stump carvings are endless and a variety of wood can be carved.
I have created a line of custom mermaids. I hand carve the original out of wood then mold the mermaids and hand paint them. They are resin based, so durable and can used for indoor or outdoor use. Please visit my mermaid site for more details on these custom mermaids - you can choose the hair color, tail type, tattoo etc.
For a number of years I have been looking the limited educational value of the conventional 'paint a canvas' businesses that were sprouting up across the country. It was immediately obvious that these were purely for entertainment and were very restricted in teaching any basics of acrylic painting. This is the main reason that I developed the Watson's 3D PR3 paint system that would not only enhance the entertainment value but more importantly would teach the fundamentals of acrylic painting in a very short time frame. The 3D paint system and teaching methodology has been extensively used and tested with students in all age groups and all skill levels. With the thousands of students who have used the Watson's 3D paint system the results have always been surprising and spectacular. It is without question the evolution of acrylic painting instruction and equally successful and fun in the formal teaching class as well as the 'paint at home' scenario.

"It just broke my heart, and I felt a little helpless," says Eboné Bell of last fall's spate of news stories surrounding gay teen suicides. "I had to figure out how I could help." Bell, founder of B.O.I. Marketing & Promotions, merged her passion with her compassion and the result is the "Put On The Gloves Fashion Show" extravaganza, a benefit for the Trevor Project and its suicide prevention work next Thursday, Jan. 27, at Town. The event also benefits the Capital Queer Prom, which Bell founded five years ago.
Handled by fashion producer Elaine Mensah, the fashion show, with some donated clothes by local and national designers, will include "some fun prom and formal-wear fashion [to] help give people an idea of what to wear" to the fifth Queer Prom, set for March 19.
Pop singer Mya will donate her time by closing out the night with a mini-concert of hits as well as some new material from her forthcoming album. And Fox 5 anchor Will Thomas co-hosts the event with stylist and author Phillip Bloch.
"I was all too happy to get involved in any way possible," says Thomas. As it happens, one of Thomas's mentors growing up in California was Randy Stone, who produced the Oscar-winning short film Trevor, which birthed the Trevor Project. Ever since Stone died a few years ago, Thomas has been looking for a way to pay homage. Says Thomas: "The people who are involved in the D.C. chapter are doing an amazing job."
Put On The Gloves Fashion Show is Thursday, Jan. 27, from 7 to 9:30 p.m. at Town Danceboutique, 2009 8th St. NW. Tickets are $50. Visit putonthegloves.org.

ND Women's Basketball: Local talent attracts big crowds to Purcell Pavilion
Jared Jedick | Wednesday, November 11, 2009
The local South Bend community has been pouring out in droves this season to get a chance to see the Notre Dame women play hoops, and one major reason why the number of players from the local community, including South Bend and Mishawaka natives freshman guard Skylar Diggins and senior guard Melissa Lechlitner.
Even beyond this local slant to the roster, the team has been making a concerted effort to get their faces out in the community and draw more fans to the newly refurbished Purcell Pavilion.
"This is the kind of team that you can really get behind," Irish coach Muffet McGraw said. "You can really relate to them and your kids can relate to them."
The Irish this year have taken on a very local flavor, boasting four players from the state of Indiana, as well as six players from Illinois, Michigan and Kentucky. Fellow Indiana natives joining Lechlitner and Diggins on the court are senior guard and captain Ashley Barlow, from Indianapolis, and junior forward Becca Bruszewski, from Valparaiso. A large part of this local slant to roster is a result of a directed recruiting effort from the coaching staff.
"We try to recruit the Midwest," McGraw said. "I know parents want to see their daughters play, and it is great for us to have the family in the stands."
McGraw said that the fact that so many players from the state of Indiana are on the roster is indicative of the level of play of local basketball.
"It says a lot about the quality of basketball here in South Bend, and in Indiana in general," McGraw said. "I think that there is great basketball in this area, it is exciting to watch, there is great fan support and the community is really involved. It is fun for them to continue to follow the players they followed in high school."
According to Assistant Sports Information Director Chris Masters, this season has already sold out a record number of season tickets, about 7,500, partly attributable to the newly refurbished Purcell Pavilion, but also intimately linked to local high school star Diggins finding her way onto the roster. This culmination of local interest in the team, according to Masters, is just the final step on a chain of events that have intimately connected the team with the local community and spiked attendance since the national championship year in 2001.
The team had an average attendance of 7,825 during 2001, according to Masters, and the Irish are hoping to sell out large portions of their home schedule this year and eclipse that number.
Diggins was a star at local Washington High School and was a McDonald's All-American as well as a two-time USA Basketball gold medalist with the 2008 U-18 team and 2009 U-19 team. Diggins' substantial local presence on the team has added to an extensive cast of other local stars.
Helping to start the trend of forming a local roster four years ago was Lechlitner, who attended St. Joseph's High School.
"I love to being home and in town and having my friends and family being able to come to every game," Lechlitner said. "Just having the support of South Bend at every game is unheard of. We go to other away games and their support is nowhere close to what it is here."
The way the Irish are trying to connect with the community and get their faces out there is to get involved in local community service projects. According to Masters, the team logged over 800 hours of community service last year, going out to local grade schools, pep rallies, and pediatric cancer clinics.
"It is really important for us to give back and go out there and do things," McGraw said. "They love doing it, and I really like having them out there."
Barlow believes that the teams commitment to working in the community is serving to bring more fans into the stadium and creating one of the more intimidating stadium atmospheres in women's basketball.
"We are always out in the community and we are always talking to people," Barlow said. "We talk to little kids, we talk to older people. We are always out in the community and I think that makes it easier for them to support us because they have actually met us and they know us."
Lechlitner said she believes the team's concerted effort to have a presence in the local community is paying off in fan support.
"We try and get out there and try and hang out with the kids at their schools, and do community service like that and just try and get more people to come to the games," Lechlitner said.
The Irish hope that this fan support will make their first season in their renovated stadium one to remember.
