Watershed Forestry
use of forests and forestry practices to protect, restore,
and sustain water quality, water flows, and watershed health
and condition.
A watershed is an area of land that catches
rainfall and other precipitation and funnels it into a marsh,
stream, river, lake or groundwater. There is a direct link
between what we do on the land and the health of our watersheds
and the quality of the water in our waterways. Those watersheds
that are forested offer a wide array of benefits. Healthy
urban and rural forested watersheds absorb rainfall and snow
melt, slow storm runoff, recharge aquifers, sustain stream
flows, filter pollutants from the air and runoff before they
enter the waterways; and provide critical habitat for fish
and wildlife. In addition, forested watersheds provide abundant
recreational opportunities, help support local economies,
provide an inexpensive source of drinking water, and improve
the quality of our lives.
Through the use of forests and forestry practices
applied on a watershed basis, we can provide cumulative water
quality benefits and offer low cost, long term solutions to
many of the nation's nonpoint source pollution problems.
The USDA Forest Service Cooperative Forestry staff provides
assistance to communities and landowners through a variety
of programs to promote sustainable forestry.

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Feb. 7, 2009) -- With the goals of avenging a loss to Florida Gulf Coast earlier this season and remaining at the top of the Atlantic Sun Conference standings, the ETSU men's basketball team will welcome the Eagles into Memorial Center Saturday at 4 p.m.
This will be the third meeting all-time between the Bucs and FGCU, but the first time the Eagles have ventured into the Mini-Dome. The Bucs come into the game at 16-6 overall, 10-2 in A-Sun play, and remain tied with Jacksonville for first place in the regular season race. Meanwhile, Florida Gulf Coast stands at 10-15, 6-8, but defeated ETSU 64-61 back on Jan. 12 in Fort Myers.
Fans unable to attend the game can listen to the radio broadcast on the MSHA Buccaneer Sports Network, which is also available through audio streaming at ETSUBucs.com. In addition, the game will air through live video streaming at ASun.TV
For more on the game, click on the game notebook link above, or read the game notes below:
The series against Florida Gulf Coast
With FGCU just joining the A-Sun last season, the Bucs and Eagles have met just two times with both those games being played in Fort Myers ... The series currently stands at 1-1 after the Eagles handed the Bucs what was at the time their first league loss of the season, 64-61 back on Jan. 12.
Last time against FGCU
FORT MYERS, Fla. (Jan. 12, 2009) -- Suffering through several scoring droughts and ultimately posting a poor offensive effort, the ETSU men's basketball team was stunned inside Alico Arena, falling to Florida Gulf Coast 64-61 in Atlantic Sun Conference play ... With the loss, the Buccaneers drop to 11-5 overall, 5-1 in A-Sun play, while the Eagles improve to 8-10, 4-3 ... Early on the Bucs opened up a 16-8 margin, after Mike Smith (Vandalia, Mo.) drilled a three with 11:59 left in the first half. FGCU's Delvin Franklin knocked down a free throw with 7:08 left to cut the margin to four points at 23-19, but FGCU was unable to get any closer in the first half. ETSU ended the first half on a 6-0 run to carry a 30-22 lead into the break ... FGCU came out in the second half and jumped on the Bucs right away, pulling even at 36-36 just 3:28 into the half. But ETSU would respond with a 9-1 run to regain their eight-point edge with 13:37 left. The Bucs would hold on to a healthy lead for awhile, and after an Isiah Brown (Miami, Fla.) dunk, ETSU held a 51-42 lead with 10:57 to play. The Eagles quickly cut into the nine-point lead, as Reggie Chambers knocked down a jumper and a three-pointer and Ed Rolax hit a pair of free throws to pull within 2 at 51-49 ... Once again the Bucs responded, running off six straight points to reassert an eight-point lead with 6:55 remaining in the game. A few minutes later, Franklin connected on a three-point shot to bring the Eagles back to within 3 points at 59-56. Kevin Tiggs (Flint, Mich.) of ETSU knocked down a pair of free throws with 1:28 left, giving the Bucs a 61-57 lead. After Kyle Marks' shot was blocked by Isiah Brown, Derrick O'Neil drew a foul and hit both free throws, advancing the score to 61-59 with 1:11 to go. On the Bucs next possession Chambers picked Courtney Pigram's (Memphis) pocket and ran the floor to perfection, hitting a layup and drawing a foul from Smith. With the scored tied at 61 and just 37 seconds remaining, Chambers connected on the free throw to give FGCU a one-point lead ... After ETSU called a timeout, the Bucs held the ball until about seven seconds left. Pigram handed off to Brown for the last shot, but Brown's 18-foot jumper was too strong, and the Eagles' Franklin pulled down the rebound off the back iron. Franklin hit both free throws at the other end, and Pigram's last second prayer was not answered, and FGCU held on for a 64-61 victory ... For the Buccaneers (11-5, 5-1), Jarvis Jones (Memphis) and Tiggs each had a team-high 13 points, and Tiggs also pulled down a game-high nine rebounds with a game-high five steals. Pigram scored 10 points on 3-of-14 shooting and also dished out a game-high eight assists. Smith added 10 points and 7 boards as well ... For the Eagles (8-10, 4-3), Franklin led all scorers with 18 points in addition to grabbing seven rebounds. Reed Baker scored 12 points in addition to swiping seve steals, the most this year by an Eagle and tied for the second most in school history.
Last time out
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (Feb. 1, 2009) - Overcoming its worst first half production of the season, the ETSU men's basketball team got a double-double performance from junior guard Mike Smith (Vandalia, Mo.) to make up a 10-point halftime deficit and avoid an upset at the hands of North Florida, dropping the Ospreys 67-64 Sunday afternoon at the UNF Arena ... Smith posted 14 rebounds and a career high 24 points in the winning effort, while senior forward Kevin Tiggs (Flint, Mich.) pitched in 17. With USC Upstate's 70-59 upset win over Jacksonville on Sunday, the Bucs move back into a tie for first place in the Atlantic Sun Conference race, moving to 16-6 overall, 10-2 in the A-Sun. Meanwhile, North Florida drops to 4-17, 2-9 ... The first half was absolutely atrocious for the Buccaneers, as they committed 13 turnovers, had no steals or assists, and shot just 39 percent from the field. The result was ETSU's worst offensive first half of the year and a 33-23 advantage for the Ospreys at the break ... However, in the second half the Bucs unwrapped their patented fullcourt pressing style and the result was a more up tempo game. ETSU ultimately made up seven points to make it 47-44 with 10:53 left in the game, and from there the Bucs took their first lead at 50-49 on a layup by Tiggs with 8:02 left ... The Bucs ultimately moved out to a seven-point advantage with 1:45 left thanks to a 3-pointer by senior guard Courtney Pigram (Memphis), but a pair of 3-pointers by the Ospreys ultimately spurred a frantic rally late to make it 65-64 with 14 seconds left. Smith then hit a pair of free throws to move the advantage to 67-64, an attempted 3-pointer by UNF's Cortez Riley missed the mark, and an offensive rebound by senior forward Greg Hamlin (Flint, Mich.) on a missed free throw by Smith with two seconds left iced the win ... ETSU ultimately rebounded in the second half to shoot 52 percent from the floor for the game, and after committing 13 turnovers in the first half the Bucs had just five in the second half, while forcing 12 turnovers by the Ospreys ... For UNF, Eni Cuka led the way and matched Smith's efforts with a game-high 24 points.
Three 1,000-point scoreres on the same team?
While it is not rare to have multiple players on the same team that "eventually" become 1,000-point scorers, having multiple players on the same team that have already eclipsed 1,000-points is rare ... This season, the Bucs have a possibility of having three players that have all reached 1,000 points in their careers ... Those players include Courtney Pigram (Memphis), Kevin Tiggs (Flint, Mich.) and Mike Smith (Vandalia, Mo.) ... Currently, Pigram has already reached that mark and stands at 1,847 points for his career, while Tiggs has 914 points and Smith has posted 918 for his career ... With a guaranteed 9 games left, Tiggs would have to average 9.6 points a game and Smith would need 9.1 a contest to reach 1,000 points ... The only two times in ETSU history that the Bucs have had three or more 1,000 point scorers on the floor at the same time was in 1990-91 and 2003-04 ... In 1990-91, four 1,000-point scorers were on the floor together at the same time, Keith "Mister" Jennings, Calvin Talford, Major Geer and Alvin West were on the floor together ... The other season this occurred was in 2003-04, when Jerald Fields, Zakee Wadood and Tim Smith all reached 1,000 points.
Pigram remarkable in 39-point effort against JU
He had "that" look, and ETSU fans were treated to one of the most impressive individual performances in Buccaneer basketball history ... Senior guard Courtney Pigram's 39-point effort in ETSU's 84-82 victory over Jacksonville in Jan. 3 tied for 9th on the program's all-time single game scoring list, while coming up just three points shy of the Memorial Center's all-time single game scoring mark of 42 points, which was set by Dimeco Childress against Western Carolina back in 2002.
ETSU the "only" A-Sun team picked among nation's best "Prestige" programs
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (July 22, 2008) - Since the beginning of the modern era for NCAA Division I-A basketball - marked by the expansion of the NCAA Tournament field to 64 teams in 1984-85 - the ETSU men's basketball program ranks in the Top 30 percent of the 300 programs that were eligible for the postseason at that time, this according to a new "Prestige" ranking released by ESPN.com ... The Buccaneers, who have enjoyed six NCAA Tournament trips, one NIT berth, seven 20-win seasons, and a slew of conference regular season and tournament championships since 1984-85, ranked tied for 82nd out of 300 teams, meaning they were in the Top 27 percent of schools making the list. ETSU was ranked ahead of every current Atlantic Sun Conference team, as well as former Southern Conference rivals Appalachian State, Western Carolina, Georgia Southern and UNC Greensboro. The Bucs also were placed ahead of every current member of the Colonial Athletic Association with the exception of Old Dominion ... In addition, the Bucs ranked ahead of SEC schools such as Tennessee, Vanderbilt, South Carolina, Mississippi State, Georgia, Mississippi and Auburn, as well as other major programs such as Virginia Tech, Notre Dame, DePaul, Bradley, Clemson, California and Florida State.
Pigram, Tiggs impressive on offensive end in 2008-09
Seniors Courtney Pigram (Memphis) and Kevin Tiggs (Flint, Mich.) have enjoyed impressive offensive performances this season, and the two rank among the nation's best when it comes to offensive production ... As of Jan. 25, Tiggs leads the Atlantic Sun Conference and ranks 23rd nationally with a 20.3 points per game average, while Pigram ranks second in the A-Sun with 18.3 points a game ... In addition, Pigram has moved to 5th on the ETSU all-time scoring list with 1,847 points in his career, passing former ETSU great Tom Chilton ... He ranks 10th on the A-Sun all-time scoring list ... Additionally, Pigram is one of just four active players nationally with more than 1,500 points, 350 assists and 200 steals in their careers ... That list includes:
Player, School......................................................Asts Stls Pts
David Holston, Chicago State 419 204 1959
Courtney Pigram, ETSU 372 212 1847
Dominic James, Marquette 576 208 1631
Jerel McNeal, Marquette 375 245 1606
16-6 start ranks as one of best ever for Bucs
The Bucs 16-6 mark matches is the best start for ETSU since the 2003-04 season, when that team opened the year at 18-4 through 20 games ... The Bucs' three non-conference road wins this season (Tn. Tech, Marshall and Appalachian), also fall just one win shy of the 2003-04 season in which the Bucs won four non-conference road games (Houston, UNC-A, Tn. Tech and Fresno State) ... That 2003-04 squad ultimately finished with 27 wins, a SoCon regular season and tournament title, and a trip to the NCAAs.
Bartow reaches 100th victory at ETSU;
recently eclipsed 200 career wins with Wingate victory
ETSU head coach Murry Bartow reached 100 wins at ETSU with the Buccaneers 81-61 win over Mercer (12/5), a milestone which comes after just having reached 200 career coaching wins as the Buccaneers defeated Wingate (11/20) ... Bartow is now 214-150 for his career, a 59 percent winning percentage ... Bartow, the son of legendary coach Gene Bartow, is also 112-67 (.626) at ETSU, which gives him the best winning percentage in school history ... In his previous five seasons at ETSU, Bartow has averaged 19 wins a year.
Home Sweet Dome
Since the 1996-97 season, the Buccaneers are an amazing 127-39 inside Memorial Center, good for a winning percentage of 76 percent ... The Bucs had won five straight at Memorial Center during the 2006-07 season before a loss to Belmont (1/2) ... The Bucs then rattled off 10 straight at home to stand at 15-1 on the Memorial Center floor that season, but fell to Belmont in the championship of the A-Sun Tourney... In 2007-08, the Bucs were 11-2 at Memorial Center ... This season the Bucs are 8-1 at home.

I'm hopefull even though Kishi made numerous mistakes with the progression of the story that by now he has written down how he wants the character of Naruto and his story to end. That's also why the current chapters seem a whole lot more focussed. I have no doubt in my mind that he's only finishing up the story. And with whatever way he's going to end it it's going to be something good.

i'm not sure but some of my mates are saying that the uzumaki clan is blood related to the senju clan but to become a sage of the six paths you need to have senju blood and uchia blood and naruto is part of the uzumaki clan so itachi may have given him some uchia blood (Sharinghan) so in later episodes naruto may unlock the rinnengan...
its really driving me crazy!
plz tell me the truth!

I am not too sure about what the sage of the six paths did. Either did he something wrong that he wanted to be corrected or things could have happened differently. A fanfic would be that the Juubi went to a cycle of reincarnation and the sage helped it, but one of his sons betrayed him and the Juubi (certainly because his mother died and he was unhappy) avoiding the completeness of the reincarnation. It is up to Naruto to finalize the reincarnation cycle.
Regardless of this speculative theory I tend to believe that Tobi is one of Sage's sons.

I have a possible explanation for the two horns appearing on the sage and Naruto. Kishi may have been inspired by Yamantaka
Since it is about Tibetan buddhism, the most interesting thing to read to know what the 6 paths refer to is this article

Releaving that Juubi was a god was kind of lackluster. I already exposed this idea a long time ago, but the way it was done with Kyuubi knowing only partially about it does not make it very clear yet.
The extension of my idea was that Juubi was being reincarnated itself. Still from that chapter I may think that the reincarnation of Juubi would reset the world as well or maybe the So6P or someone else was thinking of that and stopped the reincarnation.
It may be too early to speak about it, because there are still elements to be discovered before reaching this point, if it ever happens, but I don't understand, if the So6P chose the youngest disciple that was favoring love, why the world is not in harmony. With all the support of such an omnipotent person the youngest disciple should have succeeded and not failed.
Did he fail because he could not give up on his brother and took a bad decision?
To revive the Juubi you need all the Bijuus, but I suspect you need Senju power and also Uchiha power, so will it be for Naruto to choose between reviving the Juubi and sacrificing Sasuke or saving Sasuke and failing the mission the So6P was talking about (chap 572) ?
If so, he may choose a third way.
It seems to me there is someone missing to explain what the mission of the So6P is. Will it be Tobi himself? Or the one Sasuke wants to meet?
To speculate more about the youngest disciple, passing from love to despair because of the issue with his brother, he could be actually the Tobi we know now

Terra Nova frosh-soph girl's basketball squad looks to build on a solid campaign that produce 14 wins last season.
Melanie Herrera, Eileen O'Malley and Miranda Bernard return from last year's team. Coach Kawann Summerville has 10 freshmen on the roster, the most he ever has had. The Tigers are very deep and talented so watch for an aggressive style defense.
Look for freshmen immediately Lauren Arriola, Erin Boyle, Morgon Vurek and Malia Koloamatangi to make an impact. The Tigers are looking to compete for a league title in the new geographic North Division. It's been four years since their last league title in 2008.
"What I like about this group is their hungry to compete" said Summerville. "Newcomer sophomore Amber Aueula will bring a very physical style, especially when she gets the ball in the post and when she gets the rebound and goes back up. I'm really excited to see Aueula grow though our program."
Victoria Muliufi, Ina Bangawan, Alexa Charmon and Jenika McClay are freshmen that are expected to contribute this season.
The Lady Tigers will open the season on Thursday Nov. 29 in the annual Frosh-Soph Tournament at Terra Nova. The Tigers will tip-off at 7:45 p.m. against Lick-Wilmerding.

Recipes for this sweet first appeared in the towns of Parma, Bologna, Forlì, Ferrara and Reggio Emilia, all in the Emilia-Romagna region, in the late 19th century. Its origins are uncertain and one theory states that it originated in the 16th century kitchens of the Dukes of Este, the rulers of Ferrara who had frequent contact with England, when they asked their cooks to try to recreate the sumptuous "English Trifle" they had enjoyed at the Elizabethan court.
It too is reputedly a "failed" attempt at copying the English. In doing so they ended up producing something uniquely Italian.

Real World Study
I get emails, still, asking me to link to this or that thing because of this blog. I tend to check them unless they're obviously spam, but I don't tend to link them. I've encountered an exception.
Over at Deakin University (in Australia for us furriners), there's a psych research study (student research, but those have sprung to interesting things before and will again) on body image. Actually, on virtual body image, difference from real body image, and related, well, psychological issues.
If you're willing and interested – oh, yes, and if you're a male age 18 or older – you can participate by dropping in at www.deakin.edu.au/psychology/research/virtualimage/ . That's the permission form and plain language explanation to get started.
I'm going to note the date of posting: 9 January 2010. If it's March or later that you're reading this you're probably too late.
And to Dr. Alexander Mussap and Mr Jon-Paul Cacioli – good luck and good hunting.

When Midway scrubbed their Austin studio and binned a game nobody had ever heard about - Career Criminal - many people were left, well, nonplussed. After all, it's a bit hard to get worked up over a game that you've never heard of. But a few retrospective tears may be in order today, as Variety brings word that Hollywood director Tony Scott was attached to the project. Don't know Tony Scott? Dude directed Top Gun. And the last of the great corny action movies, True Romance. He was working as a kinda creative consultant, continuing a recent trend/fascination Midway have had with getting Hollywood types working on their games (John Woo/Stranglehold, for example). So while we may never see Career Criminal, we can at least rest assured that if we had, guitar solos, sexually-charged one-liners and dimly-lit sex scenes would have featured prominently.

Nashville, Tenn. - Kristin Peck picked up her fiftieth career win when her Lady Bisons defeated Middle Tennessee State University 4-3 at Blue Raider Field this afternoon.
The Blue Raiders scored early in the second inning on a solo shot to left field by Martha Davis.
Sara Simons would answer the Blue Raiders with an RBI single to left field to score Lauren Dortwegt in the top of the third inning. Abby Keese would close the inning with a two run homer to right center to take the lead 2-1.
The Lady Bisons would extend their lead one more when Katie Brokmeyer ripped a double to left center to score Abigail Craig. Brokmeyer finished the game two for three with one RBI.
The Blue Raiders picked up two more runs in the bottom of the seventh, and loaded the bases with two outs. Alaina Jacobson pitching in relief got Jessica Ives to pop up to third base to earn her the save and end the game.
The Lady Bisons rise to 5-8 and are taking the weekend off before playing Charleston Southern in their home opener at Draper Diamond at 2:00 PM on Tuesday, March 4.

Disgruntled Ex-Auto Dealer Employee Hacks Computer System To Disable Over 100 Cars
from the welcome-to-the-new-world dept
Ramos-Lopez's account had been closed when he was terminated from Texas Auto Center in a workforce reduction last month, but he allegedly got in through another employee's account, Garcia says. At first, the intruder targeted vehicles by searching on the names of specific customers. Then he discovered he could pull up a database of all 1,100 Auto Center customers whose cars were equipped with the device. He started going down the list in alphabetical order, vandalizing the records, disabling the cars and setting off the horns.Good thing he wasn't fired from a hospital that used internet-connected pacemakers, huh?

Congressman Mac Thornberry is pleased that the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Farm Service Agency (FSA) have waived the haying and grazing fee on Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) acreage in 25 counties in the 13th Congressional District. Producers whose pastures and/or hay production were severely damaged by the wildfires last week will not be subject to a reduction in their CRP rental fee if they decide to hay or graze their CRP acreage. The waiver also applies to those within the 25 counties with CRP who wish to donate the haying or grazing to an affected producer.
The counties included in this relief are: Armstrong, Briscoe, Carson, Childress, Collingsworth, Cottle, Dallam, Donley, Gray, Hall, Hansford, Hartley, Hemphill, Hutchinson, Lipscomb, Moore, Motley, Ochiltree, Oldham, Potter, Randall, Roberts, Sherman, Swisher and Wheeler.
"Hopefully the fee waiver will immediately provide greater use of CRP acreage within these counties to help with the urgent livestock feed needs across the area," Thornberry said.
Subject to local authority and oversight, the USDA waiver will also apply to controlled burns or similar measures on CRP acreage within the 25 counties. Approval for burning, haying, grazing or any modifications to existing CRP cover will be authorized by the county FSA office on a case-by-case basis after consulting with local officials. Producers should check with their local FSA office for further details.
Even though an earlier request in January by Thornberry and the Texas Farm Service Agency to permit emergency haying and grazing of CRP across the entire state was granted, the magnitude of the Texas Panhandle wildfires prompted Thornberry to push for the fee waiver and other measures.
"I still believe it makes sense to apply the fee waiver wherever there have been extensive wildfires across the state and will continue to urge USDA to do so," Thornberry said. Thornberry has also drafted legislation, which would provide compensation for livestock lost in the wildfires as well as cost-share assistance for fence repair. If passed, the legislation would cover losses in 2005 or 2006.
"Wildfires are just as destructive as hurricanes and these folks should have the same options available to them as those affected by Katrina and Rita," Thornberry said.

In a marriage, it's never OK to lie, right? We are supposed to be honest ALL the time. But let's face it, there are some things we don't want to tell him. And that's OK. There are many things he's just better off not knowing.
For instance, has he ever asked you if something makes him look fat? If yes, then trust me, even if the answer IS yes, it's NEVER yes. Never. Always no. Repeat after me.
What about the times he wants sex and you just don't? Do you ever say how tired you are or that you feel a little sick or that you had a long day even when none of it is true? If so, then you have lied. Admit it. We all do. Here are five lies it's OK to tell your man once in a while:
1.) No, honey, he wasn't that cute: Picture this. You just left Les Miserables starring the adorable (handsome, sexy, large, strong) Hugh Jackman and your man is feeling a little insecure. If this were you, would you REALLY want him telling you that Amanda Seyfried is so beautiful, especially when you are rocking the top knot and J.Crew Saturday pants? I think not. He would lie to you. You should do the same.
2.) I have a headache: It's a cliché for a reason. There are some nights sex just sounds really unappealing. But he doesn't need to hear that. All he needs to know is that he's not getting laid for a good reason. So give him one. Even if it's a lie.
3.) You look great: Men get insecure, too. They want to know how their shoes look with those jeans or if their button-down is too tight. Sometimes it's good to be honest. But sometimes they just want to hear they look good. Even if they don't.
4.) I didn't notice you put on any weight at all!: Yes. We did. But there is a time and place for honesty, and when he is feeling low or bad about himself is NOT that time.
5.) It was on sale: While generally I am not one to condone lying about money and, in general, you shouldn't, men do get all bent out of shape about things they don't get. Like, yes, some women pay $200 jeans. This shouldn't be that shocking. But for some men it is. If you tell them things are on sale, sometimes they relax. Sometimes they don't. But, you know, that's a discussion for another time.
Do you ever lie to your spouse?

Study Cites Benefits of Early AIDS Treatment
July 30, 2012
Starting antiretroviral therapy (ART) earlier rather than later is cost-effective and helps prevent AIDS-related illnesses, according to two studies presented at the 19th International AIDS Conference in Washington. The studies add to a body of evidence that already suggests early treatment initiation improves patient health outcomes and can help prevent onward transmission.

CCMI today released "The International Roaming Problem: How to Balance
Cost, Connectivity, and Security Concerns," commissioned by Truphone (News - Alert),
the mobile operator for the international business traveler. The report,
based on research gathered following a survey of more than 200 midmarket
and enterprise companies, examines how these companies are attempting to control
escalating international wireless roaming costs.
Companies today employ a number of methods to strike an appropriate
balance between ease of use for the mobile worker and the cost of using
non-domestic mobile network services.
Respondents indicated that modifying
mobile employees' usage behavior as the primary cost-management method
employed. This strategy has met with a measure of economic success,
but the resulting savings are being at least partially offset by some
unfortunate consequences.
Key findings of the survey include:
The report details the measures taken to modify user behavior, as well
as other approaches to lowering roaming costs.
George David, President of CCMI, said, "The cost o international
roaming isn't exclusive to large, Fortune 1000 companies. This report
tells us that a single strategy, such as modifying user behavior, isn't
enough to strike the right balance between cost savings and ease of
use." He added, "Companies of all sizes must explore alternatives to
find the solution that allows for mobile productivity while controlling
roaming costs."
The study reveals other key findings related to roaming expenditures,
alternatives corporations are using to offset roaming costs, travel
trends, and more. Click
here (http://www.ccmi.com/Roaming-Concerns)
to download the full research report.
Additionally, respondents reported substantial wireless international
roaming costs that were comparable to those the Fortune 1000 said they
were experiencing in a similar survey conducted by CCMI and Truphone
last year. See "Trends
and Best Practices to Control International Roaming Costs," (http://www.ccmi.com/Roaming)
for a copy of that report.
About the research
CCMI conducted the research on behalf of Truphone, with a statistically
significant sample size of 201 telecom expense management decision
makers from midmarket and enterprise companies taking part. The purpose
of the survey was to pinpoint the challenges these professionals face in
keeping mobile end users connected while traveling internationally, as
well as to understand the solutions or practices applied that keep users
connected while balancing budgetary constraints.

Breaking NewsUruguay All-Star striker Luis Suárez took a huge bite out of opposing defender Giorgio Chiellini this afternoon during the World Cup soccer match with Italy ... and it went UNNOTICED by refs!
The two teams were 80 minutes into the game when Suárez leaned into Chiellini and appeared to chomp down HARD ... both men then tumbled to the ground.
This is the 3rd time Suárez has been accused of using his pearly whites during a game. He was suspended for five games for biting at the beginning of the season.
No cards were issued for the bite.
Notorious bite-receiver Evander Holyfield was apparently watching the match, writing on Twitter, "I guess any part of the body is up for eating."
4:50 PM PT-- FIFA has announced they are investigating Suárez and the bite. If he's found in violation ... he could be suspended.

A Gallery of Galley Kitchens
It must have come from living in small apartments throughout my life, but I love galley kitchens. In fact, I almost feel lost in anything but. The skinny proportion is comfortable and it's nice being able to simply turn around to reach the other side of the "room".
Some folks call them crowded or say they don't have enough storage. I say they are perfectly sized and have just enough room to store anything that's truly important. These are a few galley kitchens I find particularly beautiful. The cream of the crop, in my mind.
Do you also like working in galley kitchens? If so or if not, please let us know why in the comments below!

So very, very close.
Getting this far (50 more rows!) has taken me lots of World Cup games; one ridiculous movie, featuring Walter Matthau, Ingrid Bergman, and — wait for it — Goldie Hawn (who knew such a thing existed?!); and a full season (4) of Say Yes to the Dress, which was lots of fun until it got kinda creepy. Apparently, happiness can be bought and it starts at $1800.
Anyhoo, [dismounting high horse] I'm very pleased that this project — already almost a year in progress — is nearing completion. I've been feeling a bit guilty about all of the projects I have going at the moment: socks, scarf, shawl, and afghan. Admittedly, not exactly a slide into knitterly decadence, but it bugs me and I've decided to work at clearing out the knitting basket this summer. While also making a start on the EZ saddle shoulder aran.
Yeah, something tells me these goals might be mutually exclusive.
So to distract us all from that, here's my adorable Alice doing what she does best: being very cute.

2008-W $25 Platinum Eagle MS70 NGC Early Release
|Preferred Accounts always
receive the lowest price!
Ask us about how to receive discounted pricing with a preferred account!
Starting in 2008 the US Mint introduced additional numismatic versions of the Platinum Eagle coins as part of their holiday collection. The so-called collectible uncirculated versions were struck on specially burnished blanks and carried the "W" mint mark. The 2008-W Uncirculated Platinum Eagle coins featured the same "Legislative Muse" design found on the proof version. In announcing the release, the US Mint indicated that they were priced at the mid-point between the collectible proof versions and the bullion versions of the coin. The collectible uncirculated coins were available individually in four different weights or as a four coin set.
Proof and uncirculated versions of the coins are also made for coin collectors. The proof American Platinum Eagles are unique in the fact that they are the only U.S. bullion coins that have a yearly alternating design on the reverse.
Because it may be considered commodity platinum rather than a rare coin, the American Platinum Eagle may be placed in an Individual Retirement Account in the United States.
From 2005 to 2008, a three year series of designs known as "The Foundations of Democracy" was issued to represent the three branches of government
All denominations of the proof American Platinum Eagles carry the yearly design. These coins are the only U.S. bullion coins that change reverse designs every year.

The New York City Department of Environmental Protection (NYCDEP) plans to install six (6) groundwater monitoring wells in the Jamaica community in June 2002. These wells are being installed in conjunction with the clean-up of the West Side Corporation (WSC) property (107-10 180th Street), a 4.5 acre class 2 inactive hazardous waste disposal site that was used for storage and distribution of dry cleaning chemicals until 1992. Installation of the wells will be for testing and monitoring purposes only, specifically to observe water levels and test water quality. No water will be pumped for household or industrial use.
Use of the WSC site to store and distribute dry cleaning chemicals resulted in spills and other release of contaminants, principally perchloroethylene (PCE or PERC), into soils and groundwater. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) and NYCDEP have jointly developed a plan to clean up the WSC property and an adjacent area that currently extends approximately ¾ of a mile southeast of the site. NYSDEC will clean up soils at the WSC site; NYCDEP is beginning the off-site groundwater portion of the clean-up effort. This includes installation and operation of a large-capacity well at Station 24 (180th Street and 106th Road), a former Jamaica Water Supply Company pumping facility next to the WSC site. This new well will capture the contaminated groundwater, thereby preventing it from spreading further. The pumped groundwater will be treated and tested, as required by law, before being discharged into the sewer system. Water from Station 24 will never be distributed into the City's water supply.
The 6 monitoring wells that are being installed in June will track the effectiveness of the Station 24 well, by measuring the quality, depth, and direction in which groundwater is flowing.
Three (3) wells will be installed at Station 24, an NYCDEP facility. Three (3) wells will be installed curbside at the following locations:
Installation of the wells will require one or two days of construction at each location. Community disruption (primarily noise) will only occur on the first day, when a rig will be used to drill a hole for the well. Monitoring equipment will then be installed and grouted into place. If a second day of work is required, no drilling will be involved. A 10" steel plate that will cover the well will be the only visible feature following installation.
Once construction is complete, NYCDEP personnel will be on site once a week (for approximately one hour) to collect the data and once every other month (for 2-3 hours) to collect water samples for laboratory analysis.
Well installation is being performed in accordance with NYSDEC's permitting procedures. NYCDEP will adhere to all applicable environmental health and safety standards during installation and throughout operation of the wells. For example, water extracted for testing purposes will be removed from the site in sealed barrels.
If you have any questions or would like additional information about the monitoring wells and groundwater clean-up of the WSC site, please contact Bill Yulinsky at (718) 595-5272.

Iran says supreme leader's ban rules out nuclear weapons for Islamic Republic
- Image 1 of 3
- Image 2 of 3

TEHRAN, Iran – A religious decree issued by Iran's supreme leader banning nuclear weapons is binding for the Iranian government, the Foreign Ministry said Tuesday, suggesting that the edict should end the debate over whether Tehran is pursuing atomic arms.
Ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast said the West must understand the significance of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's edict for Iran: "There is nothing higher than the exalted supreme leader's fatwa to define the framework for our activities in the nuclear field."
"When the highest jurisprudent and authority in the country's leadership issues a fatwa, this will be binding for all of us to follow," he added.
Khamenei, who has the final say on all state matters in Iran, said last year that Tehran is not seeking atomic arms. He called possessing such weapons a "sin" as well as "useless, harmful and dangerous."
Washington and its allies accuse Iran of using its civilian nuclear program as a cover to develop nuclear weapons. Iran has denied the charges, saying its program is peaceful and geared towards generating electricity and producing radioisotopes to cancer patients.
Mehmanparast's comments Tuesday come a day ahead of a new round of talks in Tehran with the U.N. nuclear watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency, over the nuclear program.
The ministry spokesman said Iran is ready to clear up any questions through a deal with the IAEA. "If there are any ambiguities or concerns, we are ready to clear these ambiguities. This can be done under a structured approach," he said.
But Mehmanparast also criticized the U.N. agency, saying that Tehran answered all its questions in the past, but instead of giving Iran a clean bill of health, the agency leveled new allegations on the basis of "alleged studies" provided by Iran's enemies.
Iran uses that term to refer to a dispute at Parchin, a military site southeast of Tehran, where the agency suspects Iran ran explosive tests needed to set off a nuclear charge.
Iran says the agency's suspicions are based on forged intelligence from the United States, Israel and others.
Mehmanparast said there has to be an end to such allegations if Iran can reach a deal with the U.N.
"Obligations of the other party must be clearly specified. If a claim is to be raised on a spot in Iran every day and (the U.N. agency) seeks to visit our military facilities under such a pretext ... this issue will be unending," he said.

A kind of review of 2011
Yesterday it started raining in the morning, which quickly turned into icy-rain, and later snow, but it was too warm, and wet to stay snow, once on the ground. It was slush everywhere. Then later in the afternoon, it started to turn white. We enjoyed being outside a lot. At around 10PM we went outside the last time for the day. It was sticky snow, and you could still hear water dripping down the eaves-through.
I didn't use flash light for the photos, and they are not too sharp, but you get the idea of the "funny" light out at that time of day. There were lights on, at the back of the house though.
sticky snow
Happy is the one, who loves the snow most. He was totally pooped at the end of the day.
Seeing Maggie on this sofa is a joyous event.
Since we've got house guests, she's been spending most of her time in the crate in the basement. Door open, but she rarely got out, only when I opened the door to the backyard. She's totally freaked.
Our guests left for the day, early morning, only to come back sometime this evening. So she didn't hear anything weird from upstairs, and she got courageous, and played with the boys, and even went upstairs with me.
The boys initially loved the newcomers, but on the second day, they found out that the guests are smokers, and since then they don't go near them. I can't think of an other explanation, since they still greeted a non-smoking guest enthusiastically. Oh well, soon the house will belong to us again, and they can relax.
Now here's my sort of review over my year in spinning, and knitting, concerning my private sock club.
I took a picture each month of what I've spun.
This turned out to be a total of 21.5 pounds or 9.75 kilograms.
Not bad. Surpassed all my expectations!
My goal for my private sock club was, to knit a pair of socks each month, from one of my many sock books, or single patterns bought. I did not quite achieve that goal. Apparently it's hard for me to follow instructions; I just have to do my own thing once in a while. Only seven pairs are from books or downloads.
I'm just finishing up my last, and 19th pair of socks for this year. Not bad either, considering, that I've knit and finished 60 projects total.
hats: 10
shawls: 17
scarf: 1
cowls: 2
full pairs of mittens: 6
fingerless pairs of mittens: 5
pairs of socks: 19
I've had more FO's in the past years, but I didn't spin then, or spin that much.
I can say, that my hands were never idle. There were maybe a few days, you can count on one hand, where I did not knit, spin, or crochet (which did not amount to anything, got ripped).
So, for the coming year in crafting, I'm going on a fiber/yarn/pattern buying diet. I'm stocked up quite nicely. I'll still be getting fiber from two fiber clubs I'm in. For the first three month of the new year, I'll be getting fiber from a third club, which will not be renewed. One really hard decision was to let go of Hello Yarn Fiber Club a few month ago. Once you are out, you are out. Her waiting list is a closed one, but I just had too much fiber coming in, and I had to decide which I wanted to keep, and which club I could let go.
I'm also signed up for shawl clubs, which will go into the year 2012 (looking forward to all of them. There's Romi Hill's Second Year of 7 small shawls, Westknits shawl club, and Anne Hanson's Bare Naked Knitspot club, just the patterns, not the yarn).
I wont be buying magazines, and knitting books, or single patterns for download on ravelry (very hard indeed), but I really want to knit from what I already have, and enjoy it too.
Since I'll be spinning again throughout the year, I'll be creating new yarns to knit with too.
Well, there you have it! That's what I'm planning to do, and I can be weak, but also strong willed! :o) Lets see how it goes.
So this morning the pups had fun in the snow.
BTW- Wandering Cat Yarns has a sale going on. I've already got my share. :o) Just saying.

Wow, such a prolific pile of FO's! I've been looking back on what I did in the past year, and it is nowhere near that much.

Ooh I love your pictures! It really looks like winter! :D
You're really amazing, so many projects and so much yarn! Wow! Love the socks!
I also want to knit more from the patterns I already have, especially for socks, I have 4 or 5 sock books!

I hardly got anything done this year but I somehow kept buying. I'll be doing mostly like you and no new yarn/fiber except I'll be keeping HY fiber as my only club. Even unjoined the groups on Rav to remove temptation! Good luck with your working from stash!

I'm always amazed at how much you are able to accomplish! Leaves the rest of us in the dust. All those socks are lovely!
We got the tiniest bit of snow - now it's just really cold and icy. Sun is out though, so it nice too look at from inside.

You've had a very productive year. I can't say the same but I have enjoyed seeing your projects knitted and spun.

We've only had a light, light dusting of snow two days before Christmas, nothing to shovel or sweep away. Just enough to partially cover the ground and give us a kind of white Christmas. Today it rained, so it's all gone. My dogs love snow, but so far they haven't had any to play in!
I know I am down in FOs this year, but I don't spin, so I can't use that as an excuse! lol

Happy New Year!
I wish I had done as much knitting and spinning as you've done. I have so much stash. Hmmm ... I see a new year resolution in there.
Your pups are wonderfully comedic, as usual. I love to see them at play.

I love that backyard photo... that light IS really strange. I don't think I've seen anything like it before, and I KNOW snow!
How interesting that Queen Maggie was so freaked by your visitors! Equally fascinating is how big she's become... almost a mirror image to Happy. How time flies!
I fell off my yarn-diet wagon. Back onto it for me. I shall watch you for inspiration in the coming year!

I love your snow photos and am totally in awe of all you got knitted or spun this year! I love all the socks, and your doggies look like such fun!
I could use a little snow here, but not for a couple of weeks yet.

I'm very impressed with your productivity this year. 21 pounds of yarn!
Also, all those FOs. I'm totally jealous. I made just over half of what you did. :)

There's always someone who wees in the video!! They are having such a wonderful game in the snow. I love how Happy plays with the toy, is is a broken frisbee???

Amazing Brok is a challenging 2D platformer that addresses the problem plaguing so many other platformers on mobile devices: the controls. Brok is unique with its 2 button system. One button causes Brok to jump, and the other interacts with the objects in the level in various ways. This control system is a lot of fun to learn, while still providing a lot of interesting level mechanics, like timing your jump for extra height (coming off a landing), or wall jumping.

Intelligence Community Says President Obama's Non-Plan To 'End' Metadata Collection Is 'Impossible'
from the shockingly-unshocking dept
"The idea that this complicated problem will be solved in the next two months is very unlikely, if not impossible," said one official with knowledge of the discussions. "It is not at all inconceivable that the bulk collection program will stay the same, with the records held by the government until 2015," when the law that authorizes the bulk collection is set to expire.And, of course, many assume this was the plan all along. Say that they're ending the program while promising to keep the capabilities, then punt the issue to others to work out, and you pretty much guarantee the status quo for quite some time. Perhaps permanently. This wasn't leadership, this was passing the buck. And that's why most of the intelligence community seems perfectly happy with the result.

UPDATE: Xenophya Design, partner in Mac Motorcycles, have asked A&R to clarify the fact that Matthew Schneider & Carefully Considered were in no way asked to do this work for Mac Motorcycles.
Design house Carefully Considered has dipped there ink into the motorcycle realm, first with some pixelated camouflage designs for the Husaberg FE 390, and now with their take on the Mac Motorcycles prototype. We loved the Xenophya Designed lines of the Mac when we first saw it, but after looking at the paint and details that Carefully Considered came up with, we're finding the single-color schemes to be almost boring now. Photos and more after the jump.

I'm interested in musicals recently. Musicals had been in peak from the '50's to the '60s. And they were dying out after their golden age. But they have been revitalized and they are popular now. I like musiclas and "MOULIN ROUGE" is the best mucsical that I have even watched. That movie is about love. The leading actress is Nicole KIdman and the leading actor is Ewan McGregor. I like both of them very much. I like the scene that they breathe words to love each other by singing a love song, the best in that movie. Their song is very beautiful and I was charmed by it. Most of the songs in that movie are popolar songs such as "Your song""Lady Marmalade""All you need is love" and so on. I think someone who is not used to watching musicals will enjoy it, too. I like both the movies and songs so musicals are the best amusement for me.

WWF has launched a new campaign in a bid to protect the threatened virgin forests of Romania.
The Carpathian Mountains of Romania harbour 250,000 hectares of virgin forest, pristine tracts of biodiversity untouched by human activities, which act as a stronghold for a wide variety of species. These unspoilt areas have high scientific, educational and ecological value, yet they equate to less than three percent of the country's total forest cover.
In this, the International Year of Forests, and with the future of a major part of Europe's natural heritage at risk, WWF is spearheading a new campaign to obtain total protection for more than 80 percent of Romania's virgin, or old growth, forest. These areas house iconic species such as the grey wolf, Eurasian lynx and imperial eagle and were historically widespread, but are sadly now severely depleted as a result of poor management.
Virgin forests are complex, dynamic ecosystems built up of seedlings, young, mature and old trees, as well as dead trees and decaying logs, which provide a diverse range of habitats in which many plant, animal and fungus species thrive.
WWF's Danube-Carpathian Programme in Romania works to protect all forest types, but the scheme recognises the importance of targeting the conservation of virgin forests. Magor Csibi, Romania's Country Manager for the programme, highlights the urgency in acting now to save these areas of natural beauty: "We will never be able to rebuild this part of nature. Once lost, it is lost forever."
Historically, Romania's virgin forests remained untouched, partly as a result of their inaccessibility, and partly due to the low economic value of the wood obtained from old trees. Yet socio-economic pressures in Romania are currently high, and with an ever-increasing demand for wood and development, the country's virgin forests are becoming more and more vulnerable.
Taking action
WWF has written to the Ministry of Environment and Forests in Romania, urging them to make the implementation of effective protection for the country's remaining virgin forests a priority. The letter also asks for changes to the legislative framework, which would guarantee the protection of this critical ecosystem, as well as compensatory funds for private forest owners.
Magor Csibi is confident that the campaign will be successful: "We expect our initiative to be supported not only by people who wish for a sustainable future, but especially by the authorities who can decide whether to solve this problem or not. I believe that we can obtain 100 per cent protection of our virgin forests."
An awareness raising campaign for the public has also been launched, which highlights the importance of virgin forests and urges people to sign a petition.
Legend, legacy and life
The forests of Romania, which once inspired the legend of the vampire, are some of the last untouched areas of wilderness in Europe. With their biodiversity, along with their rich and deep-set culture, the loss of these wooded habitats would be a huge blow to the country.
Magor Csibi called upon people to take into account moral, as well as environmental, values: "Considering that we are among the last European nations fortunate enough to have such a treasure, it is our moral obligation to preserve this piece of nature intact and to leave a small piece of wilderness to our children."
