SPACEPLAN Review
SPACEPLAN is a clicker game. If you're not familiar with that genre, clickers are games that generally play themselves and limit player interaction to rapid, repeated mouse-clicking or screen-tapping. SPACEPLAN follows that model, but adds a touch of strategy and an additional element of gameplay here and there and wraps the whole thing in a rather unique story. It's still not a game for everyone, but the low price gives it a good value proposition for those looking for some entertainment from a game that's not quite like most other games you'll find on Steam.
SPACEPLAN opens as your spaceship arrives in orbit around a strange planet. To explore the planet you'll need to create probes, creating probes requires energy, and creating energy requires all manner of potato-based technology. No, that's not a typo, the game has a decidedly eccentric sense of humor and potatoes figure prominently in that humor. As you make more potato-based power sources, the watts you produce per second will increase, providing you with the power-based funds to purchase the special items you'll need to advance the story. Power will accumulate on its own, but you can hasten the process by clicking on a square that sits below your power readings. As long as you keep clicking a multiplier will be applied to the power generated.
There's a bit of strategy in deciding which types of generators to build and which upgrades to purchase - going for the most bang for your buck, um, watt, will get you more power more quickly. Making poor choices won't end the game for you, though, it will just make it take longer to get through it.
You'll reach plenty of points in the game during which you'll just need to leave it running for a bit or come back to it later (the game will generate a finite amount of power for you between game sessions). This can get to be a little tiresome, especially when the next item you need to advance the story requires an enormous number of watts. However, the story is quirky and interesting enough that when you near the next milestone you'll feel some excitement at the anticipation of finally seeing what comes next.
That's pretty much all there is to the game, building up your power-generating resources, purchasing a special item, and then seeing where the story takes you next. Sometimes a little gameplay element is added in, such as trying to drop probes on a specific spot on a planet from orbit, but for the most part the game will just run itself with occasional input from you. If this sounds like it may be boring to you, you're probably right and should avoid SPACEPLAN. On the other hand, if you're willing to spend a few dollars on a game that's a bit unusual, you may find yourself enjoying the experience.
Final Rating: 80% - The actual gameplay is minimal, but some gamers will find themselves enjoying SPACEPLAN's quirky story and sense of humor.

The preponderance of evidence, both theoretical and experimental, appears to show that the vena contracta does not occur at the same location as the minimum pressure point in the Reynolds number range greater than 10,000. Fortunately, however, this result has little effect on the measurement engineer in the field. All of the coefficients for vena contracta taps remain valid except that they should probably be referred to as "minimum pressure point taps" unless someone can provide a simpler description.

I'm sure a lot of dads out there can relate to this, lately i've noticed my 3 month old daughter would start to complain and cry sometimes when I'm holding her, for no reason… so I adjust myself, I play with her, I get up, I sit down, I show her her toys, I do whatever I can… but nothing, so I go to plan B… I hand her over to her mom and say "i think she's hungry" and as I walk away she responds "no I just feed her" but when I turn around to make my argument my daughter has her eyes locked on me and with the cutest smile in her face that you can imagine, and what can a new dad do but smile? nothing really, her smile and her tiny flick (lift) of her eyebrows would have made John Wayne show a soft side.
So The Cry vs The Smile subject is not really a VS game, but yet something that goes with each other, regardless of how my daughter is acting I know that by the end of the day she is going to give me a smile that will brighten my day enough to withstand her once she stars to cry…. at 3am.

Winter business travel can often be complicated due to harsh weather conditions and low outdoor temperatures. For many people, it can mean getting stuck in traffic or being at risk of an accident while traveling on the road. For those who want to arrive safe and enjoy a smooth ride, there are a few important winter business travel tips when you're flying by plane, train or automobile.
Prepare for Delayed Flights
Flights are often delayed during the winter season due to storms that arrive and are dangerous to fly through while traveling in the air. Prepare for delayed flights if you're traveling for business and fly a day or two before your business meeting to ensure that you can still arrive on time. Pack reading materials and a laptop to stay occupied if you need to wait for several hours before departing to ensure that you can get more done as you wait.
Check the Weather Conditions
While traveling for business, you'll need to check the weather conditions each day to ensure that you can avoid getting stuck in a downfall or a blizzard while you're on the road. Schedule your travel plans around the weather to ensure that you can avoid getting stuck on the road and have delays with your business plans. You'll also want to pack an ice scraper, tire chains, and a shovel to ensure that you can get out of the driveway or an area where you're parked after it's snowed.
Take Alternative Routes
Be prepared to take alternative routes if you hit traffic or there's an accident that occurs to ensure that you can still arrive at your destination on time. Use a map or a GPS device to navigate different routes and find faster ways of getting around the traffic. You can also use our Nashville limo service to rely on a professional chauffeur that will help you to arrive on time to a business meeting or an appointment due to their familiarity with the local area. You can enjoy riding in a luxury vehicle that has spacious interiors to catch up on emails or make phone calls until arriving at your destination to increase your productivity. You won't have to worry about fighting traffic and can feel more relaxed and composed once you arrive with a professional car service Nashville.
Pack an Emergency Kit
When you're planning on traveling locally for your winter business travel, it's important to pack an emergency kit to ensure that you can receive help if you get stuck in the snow. The kit should include emergency flares, first-aid supplies, and a charged cell phone. You can also pack reflective warning triangles to place on the road if you need to pull over. A tire gauge will also prove to be useful to check your tire pressure and avoid flat tires. For the winter season, you can also utilize an extra blanket, nonperishable snacks, and a rain poncho to stay dry.

Ride the bus to state capital for school funding
To the editor:
As you know, funding for education has become a serious concern, especially in light of the current budget situation. On Wednesday, March 19, at 5:30 p.m., the Funding Coalition is sponsoring a rally and presentation on Lawyers Mall in Annapolis, featuring Dr. Alvin Thornton of the Thornton (Funding) Commission.
His presentation will be an attempt to urge the governor and legislature to adequately fund education in the budget currently under consideration in Annapolis. Washington County organizers are planning a brief meeting with the Washington County delegation following the rally to discuss local education funding matters.
The Washington County Board of Education, MSTA, WCTA, and ESP Local #1, in partnership with the State PTA and MABE (Maryland Association of Boards of Education), are coordinating a "Funding Ride" which will depart after school from various locations throughout Washington County.
We are urging as much participation as possible from teachers, administrators, support staff, parents, and citizens. Children accompanied by a parent are welcome. Additionally, parents should keep in mind that the buses will not return until approximately 10 p.m. Wednesday evening. Sack lunches are encouraged.

Kia ora Donald,
I wrote those lines one day out in the Ruahine in my little notebook where they have stayed since. The other evening Charlie and I were looking at photos of the Ruahine and came across the sequence above. All the sudden those words written and put away came to life. Makes me glad I carry pen and paper with me in the mountains. Essential equipment. Hope all is well my friend. Kia kaha.

Robb, I found I got quite a kick from leaving phone messages that I could be reached 8-5 Mountain Time. Seems like a much more interesting state of mind than Eastern or Central.
No river to listen to at the moment but the rain is making strong sounds and earlier I climbed the hill and listened to the stirring but settling music of elk and perhaps some predator mixed in. The din is quieting here as the hotel closes this weekend and peace is returning to the land.

I've been reading a lot more poetry lately, especially ones about people and nature. Last Sunday I went up to Park City, Utah and walked along a mountain trail that fed my soul better than any meal. That's how poetry is to. It feeds and it gives nourishment to the soul.
Thank you for your poetic soul, my friend!

Just lovely. And how can we measure time? I tried to explain it to Jack yesterday - the concept of time, and how unreal it is. I'm not sure he got it. I'm not sure I get it, quite, either.
I love the absolute freedom of feeling that there is no beginning or end - just the now, and the moment, and the reality in front of us. The mountains are good teachers, that way. And, you have a gift for words, my friend.

I have to write the music of the rivers and streams would be the "sound track" I would have in the back ground of my life at all times if I could.

Kia ora Ophelia,
On my last outing in the mountains Charlie was asking me how long it would take to get up into the tops. I tried to explain "a few hours", then could see him struggling with that - my explanation was not that good. Then I broke it down into a 30 minute segment, he still struggled. Then I explained 30 minutes was like an episode of Family Guy. That he got.
I am heading into the mountains alone for 4 days pretty soon. Looking forward to melting into the mountains and measuring my day by the rhythms there only. Kia kaha.

Beautiful words and pictures there Robb. You did good. I love the mountains and streams. They would be the only places that could remotely tempt me out of my little haven here in Bluff Country.

Hey Rob, camping out alone is something I can't even imagine. I am so out of spending time in the bush, it's not funny.
The most forest I see is the park in the city. The trees are nice.
I haven't gone into the bush for a long time. Except for driving in the bush which is not being in the bush.
Good hiking and camping.

Oh Dear Wild Brother, this speaks to the core of me. You are SO beautiful, and what you express here is beautiful. I lost myself in this one. I could feel in ME how YOU felt sitting there.
I miss the wild places and hope to get back to them soon....permanently, or at least more permanently. I am with you in these place and so glad "Little Snow Turtle" has been exposed to this great love of all things wild.
I can't help but think of him and that video you did. I am still laughing over it. It was so creative on your part and so funny and endearing on his part.
Stay free Wild Brother, always free. Thinking of you as you walk in spirit through my rainforest life. :)
your Wild Sister.

Kia ora TB,
There are so many wonderful and alive places in my Taurangawaewae (Original Place), of Wisconsin/Minnesota. They were actually brought more to life by finding these mountains here so far away. I know you would appreciate these rivers. Please continue to do so here.
- October 21, 2010 at 6:40 PM
- Ruahines said...
Kia ora Steve,
I really believe all men should camp alone at least one night in their lives out in the bush, hell even in their own back yard. There are so many whom it would do good to reconnect with the rhythms of nature, even if just to remind ourselves there is something buried deep within us we should get to know. I am still looking. Thanks for stopping Steve, good to read from you. Kia kaha.

Kia ora Wild Sister,
I just got back from the mountains where I read your book. You could have written this poem yourself. I knew if you saw these words you would understand immediately, and now I understand that even deeper. The river is up, the river is down, if you want to cross the river, or travel up or down it, what else matters but those simple facts! That is time.
We all return to the Wild in the end. You are one of the few whom did so in these moments and can share them with us. May we all find the courage to let go sometime, somewhere, and feel that. The human world would be a far better place. Rave on my wonderful friend! Ti hei mauri ora!

"we shall live

Heading into the mountains again this weekend for 3 days by myself in the Eyre Mountains which are rarely visited.
I love the absolute freedom of feeling that there is no beginning or end - just the now, and the moment, and the reality in front of us.
Me too just imagine a clock with no dial, some times it good to plan ahead but alot of things happen for a reason. Living in the momment you also have a surprise.
Working for DOC in Te anau for 4 months, almost 1 week has passed man it went quick, currently at the Burwood Takahe rearing centre for 3 weeks. Been feeding takahe chicks its amazing to watch them develop and grow over such a short time! Living on site here so a 2 min walk and I'm at work. Snow down to 300m here and got to see takahe in their natural habitat-Snow and tussock!
Check out the website added some more pics and managed to get some of my fellow trainee rangers on a hell mission!
Cheers Phill

Kia ora Phill,
So cool to see you living your dream! Well done mate. Mountain time is the best time. "The reality in front of us" - how true. There is great beauty in that sort of simplicity, and I am heartened that as a young person you are so in tune with its rhythms.
I will stop by and check out your place. Enjoy your solo time.

Kia ora Bob,
Indeed. Particularly when we get the opportunity to spend more than just a few days, and we just are absorbed into the mountain rhythms. There is probably much we could learn from the cultures whom live in high places at all times. About time, patience, and connectedness.

Not quite him teaching it intentionally but this is what I get everytime there is a Cowboy's game and I'm coming home on I30. Instead of starting the "I hate Jerry Jones" Facebook page I instead think of the gospel applied to my own heart.
Jerry Jones may never know how much he is contributing to my sanctification through the activity of the Holy Sprirt that He gets each time that I have to wait in traffic. So may the gospel come to Mr. Jones in a tangible way and may my life be more of an example as I sit in the mess of I-30. :)

When there's a new business as well as business attention to become separated, step one may be the valuation.

It is usually difficult to reach a fair valuation, in particular when one partner is trying to manipulate business budget or perhaps concealing business possessions. Considering that assets is going to be broken down equitably after a valuation has been reached, it is important that this reports regarding the business along with property are totally precise from the start.

When a business valuation record has become obtained, it needs to be reviewed with attention about the quality information on the document. There could be several factors inside the claim that might be reconsidered. If it is true, there isn't any shame inside taking everybody back to the particular table and asking for one more analysis.

That's why it's important to inch as being a celebration to a business valuation- information make any difference not just in short term but in the future, way too.
Unfortunately, there are lots of methods a business owner or companion who's a lot more active in the finances can change the look off your business value. Having an exterior personal help with this process may degree the particular game and make certain an accurate representation is used to discover the price of your business. A single get together mustn't be at a downside to these kinds of actions, and it can make the procedure go far more easily when a alternative party reaches the helm directing the actual chats as well as file evaluation.

NPG Awards National Student Scholarships for 2018-2019 Academic Year
Six Students Will Share in $6,000 for Essays Related to Overpopulation
Negative Population Growth leaders have announced this year's winners of the organization's Annual Essay Scholarship Contest. Six students from across the U.S. will receive checks ranging from $2,000 to $750 to put toward their annual tuition.
The winning students competed for their scholarship awards by writing an original 500-750 word essay addressing the following topic: With America headed toward a population of approximately 400 million people by 2050 (up from the present 327 million), such huge numbers will surely intensify many of our country's most critical environmental problems. Select ONE environmental issue from below, explain how it is made worse by population growth, and describe what measures you would recommend our nation's leaders take to ensure we protect our fragile environment for generations to come. Air Pollution; Availability of Clean Water; Climate Change; Destruction of Wildlife Habitat; Detrimental Effects of Coal, Oil and Natural Gas Extractions; Loss of American Farmland; Protection of Wetlands; Shrinking of Parks and Green Spaces; Urban Sprawl. The contest was open to high school seniors, as well as currently-enrolled college undergraduates.
Hannah Sackles of the University of Florida Gainesville, took the first-place prize of a $2,000 scholarship, with Grace Klein of Denison University in Granville, Ohio being awarded a $1,000 scholarship for her second-place finish. Abigail Snellgrove of the University of South Carolina in Columbia; Susan Leigh Thomassie of Loyola University of New Orleans; Clarke Williams of Howard University in Washington, D.C. and Morgan Zenon from Lakeland University in Plymouth, Wisconsin, received Honorable Mention scholarships of $750 each.
This year's prizes are just a portion of the tens of thousands of dollars of scholarship money NPG has awarded in recent years as part of their Youth Outreach program. This multi-faceted program is designed to get America's young people focused on the disastrous future that awaits their generation if our nation's leaders fail to soon recognize and act on putting forth workable, responsible, common sense solutions to today's ever-growing population crisis.
In addition to sponsoring their annual student scholarship competition, NPG has worked through the years with thousands of teachers nationwide who help bring the message about the vital need to slow, halt and eventually reverse population growth to America's classrooms. These efforts are funded through the generous support of NPG members who are especially interested in leaving a livable world to their children and grandchildren.
In commenting on the awarding of the 2018 Scholarships, Craig Lewis, NPG's Executive Vice President, noted: "This year saw a record number of students competing. We find that increase to be extremely encouraging as it reflects the fact that today's youth are becoming more and more aware that a nation and world of too many people will only fuel economic, social, and environmental chaos. Knowing that so many young people are eager to be part of the battle to protect our nation for generations to come bodes well for the future."
Founded in 1972, NPG is a national nonprofit membership organization dedicated to educating the American public and political leaders regarding the damaging effects of population growth. We believe that our nation is already vastly overpopulated in terms of the long-range carrying capacity of its resources and environment. NPG advocates the adoption of its Proposed National Population Policy, with the goal of eventually stabilizing U.S. population at a sustainable level – far lower than today's. We do not simply identify the problems – we propose solutions. For more information, visit our website at www.NPG.org, follow us on Facebook @NegativePopulationGrowth, or follow us on Twitter @npg_org.

World population, now over 7.3 billion, is predicted to rise to 9 billion by 2050, an increase of almost two billion, or 23%, in the short space of only 34 years from now.In the highly unlikely event that per capita greenhouse gas emissions could possibly be decreased by an equal percentage in such a short space of time (a blink of an eye) the total amount of worldwide emission would remain the same!
From this simple illustration it would appear that without drastically reducing the size of world population, there is no solution to the problem.None at all.So then why do our world leaders pretend that there is one?What is to be gained by pretending rather than by proposing a solution that would solve the problem – a reduction in the size of world population to not more than 1- 2 billion?

Part of the Landolt-Börnstein - Group III Condensed Matter book series (volume 27B6a)
The magnetic and related properties of lanthanide and actinide pnictides and chalcogenides have been compiled in subvolume 27B. While subvolumes 27B1–27B5 deal with lanthanide pnictides and chalcogenides of different type, the properties of actinide pnictides and chalcogenides are covered in subvolumes 27B6, 27B7 and 27B8. Subvolumes 27B7 and 27B8 (already published) deal with binary and ternary actinide pnictides and chalcogenides. The present subvolume 27B6a deals with actinide monopnictides together with isostructural monocompounds containing carbon as well as solid solutions with either cation or anion mixing. Data for actinide monochalcogenides will be presented in 27B6b. The literature has been reviewed up to the beginning of 2005. An index of substances at the end of this subvolume lists all compounds treated in this subvolume.

Is anyone else making this fabulous health tonic?
I just tasted my first batch and am thrilled!
Apple cider vinegar with garlic, hot chile pepper, horseradish, turmeric, orange, and lemon. It has been steeping a month and with a bit of honey tastes so spicy and warming.
I am glad I made a bunch.

Today, the ACLJ presented oral arguments before the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals in one of the largest lawsuits against the IRS for the targeting and discrimination against conservative non-profit organizations.
Representing thirty-eight conservative grass roots organizations, the ACLJ opened its argument with a reminder to the Court of Appeals that the present lawsuit against the IRS involves the most serious allegations a federal court can address: an Executive agency's abuse of power and the mistreatment of U.S. citizens based upon their political views. As the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit noted in a scathing opinion against the IRS just a few weeks ago, "No citizen - Republican or Democrat, socialist or libertarian-should be targeted or even have to fear being targeted on those grounds," and yet, that is precisely the treatment our clients received at the hands of the IRS.
Notably, the senior IRS official at the center of the IRS targeting scheme, Lois Lerner, was in attendance at the court today.
Despite this egregious behavior on the part of the Obama Administration's IRS, the lower court dismissed our clients' constitutional claims opining that there was no remedy that the court could provide for the IRS's misconduct. The single fact on which the lower court based its decision: the self-serving, unsworn statement by the IRS that it had ceased a single component of the targeting scheme - i.e. use of a BOLO (Be On the Look Out) List containing inappropriate criteria resulting in a roundup of conservative organizations for special scrutiny and unconstitutional delay in the processing of their applications for exemption, as well as ongoing monitoring. As we noted for the Court of Appeals today, however, and as we have clearly alleged in our Complaint, the IRS's use of a BOLO list was just one aspect of the wide-ranging targeting scheme employed by the IRS to harass the members and donors of these organizations through, among other things, delays and probing and unconstitutional demands for information.
As one judge on the panel today noted quite poignantly, it would be ignorant to ignore the egregious violations of U.S. citizens' rights that we have alleged in this case. The court today expressed particular interest in the two organizations who, after submitting their applications for exemption almost 6 years ago, are still awaiting a determination. When the court asked the IRS on what authority it continues to delay these organizations' applications, the IRS was unable to identify the source of this allegedly "long-standing practice."
The court also questioned the IRS about the two rules we challenge in the Complaint as unconstitutional and vague – the same rules that we contend have permitted the targeting and viewpoint discrimination by the IRS and which the IRS has failed to amend. This, the Court of Appeals indicated, creates real concern whether much has actually changed at the IRS.
Most tellingly, Judge David B. Sentelle stated, "It's hard to find the IRS to be an agency we can trust." This goes to the heart of our argument.
We concluded our arguments before the court by urging the court to reject the IRS's suggestion that we should "just trust" that the IRS will do the right thing – and has done the right thing – to eliminate all targeting of conservative organizations. This is especially true where both Congress and the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) (established to provide independent oversight of IRS activities) have found that current regulations and training procedures in place at the IRS still potentially allow for subjective review, and inefficient processing of, non-profit organizations' applications for exemption, as well as discriminatory review of all organizations actually granted tax-exempt status.
We believe, following oral arguments today, that it is not lost on the court the dramatic impact of the IRS targeting scheme on our non-profit clients, including the ongoing suffering and potential for additional targeting these organizations face by the IRS if the appeals court does not permit our claims to move forward in the district court.
We will continue fighting to defend these targeted organizations and to ensure that those responsible for this targeting scheme are held accountable.
We're taking on the unlimited resources of the Obama Admin. in federal court to hold the abusive IRS accountable. Have your gift doubled.
Today the ACLJ filed a reply in support of our request that the Supreme Court hear an important free speech case, Keister v. Bell . At stake in the case is the freedom of people to speak on sidewalks along public streets. I wrote about this case when we filed our petition in early July. Since then,

Did you ever have one of those days where you just didn't feel like communicating? And even if you wanted to, the words just wouldn't come. Oh sure, you've got all kinds of thoughts bouncing off the the old synapses like a box of ping pong balls emptied from hot air balloon on to a dance-floor, but they just don't make enough sense to put on paper, or even to cast them into the great cyberspace beyond. No? Me either.
But if I did, I'd probably just post a clip of some sort. And I was really devoid of ideas, I'd probably just steal an idea from somewhere else, say, like Fun Monday for instance.
Here's a song that has been one of my favourites since the early 70s. I'd always thought it was written about the end of the relationship she had with Graham Nash, but in researching it to make sure, it turns out that popular belief is that is was about her relationship with Leonard Cohen. Either way, it's a hauntingly beautiful song…
I can't say for sure that all the artwork is hers, but I'm assuming it is since not only is she an accomplished artist, but she did all the artwork for her albums. Oh, in case you've lived your life in a cave it's Joni Mitchell.

text: Leader Summer 2017 July 7, 2017 Table of Contents A Letter from Mary Celebrating 30 Years of Service and Dedication Animal Lovers' Gift Supports Spay Neuter Surge New Governors & Officers Love Field Landmark Reflects Family's Dedication to Dallas Legacy Society 2S Industries Wins Annual Pegasus Prize Dallas Foundation Meets Comprehensive National Standards Snapshots of Spring Dear Friends, As you may have heard, I am retiring after 30 years with The Dallas Foundation. What a wonderful experience I've had here! It has been a privilege to work for an organization with such deep roots in our community and one so committed to improving the quality of life in North Texas. Our donors are curious and generous and savvy; I'm always learning from them. Our governors bring terrific expertise and civic connections to our board. And our hardworking staff always strives to be responsive, thoughtful and accountable. No wonder I've enjoyed The Dallas Foundation so much; it attracts great people. Even though I'm leaving later this year, our board and staff have ambitious plans for the years ahead. The Dallas Foundation has been one of a quartet of foundations that are looking for ways to improve the effectiveness of Dallas County's nonprofit sector. We've agreed to create a pool of funding for agencies that want to explore new collaborations, joint ventures, shared back-office operations or mergers. The new project, The Better Together Fund, which launched on June 7, will make local nonprofits better able to focus on and achieve important, long-term goals. The Dallas Foundation also will remain committed to improving early childhood education and welfare in Dallas County and beyond. We will keep working to help the city of Dallas confront its dangerous loose-dog problem. We will partner with donors to make giving as rewarding and effective as possible. By this time next year, there will be a different signature at the end of this message, but our motto and our vision will not change: The Dallas Foundation is Here for Good. Forever. With best wishes, Mary M. Jalonick President & CEO On New Year's Day of 1987, The Dallas Foundation was a fairly obscure entity with no staff and only six funds. By the end of the year, Mary M. Jalonick had become its first executive director, and The Foundation was preparing to grow. Three decades later, The Dallas Foundation, its surrounding community and the field of philanthropy have all changed dramatically. Dallas County has added about 800,000 residents. The Dallas Foundation has 19 full-time employees, has more than 550 individual funds, and is recognized statewide as a leader in advocating for early childhood education. And Mary Jalonick is retiring as president and CEO. "I have been so incredibly fortunate that I crossed paths with The Dallas Foundation," Jalonick said. "It's made me a better person. It gave me a chance to learn about important issues and work with smart, caring, capable people. It's been the best job anyone could ever want." During Jalonick's career, the perspectives that guided many foundations shifted. "People coming into the business today couldn't imagine how closed it was then," said Bruce Esterline, who started working at The Meadows Foundation in 1983 and is now its senior vice president for strategic initiatives and grants. "We have become much more collegial and engaged." He credits Jalonick with being a pioneer of the more open, collaborative approach. When she started at The Dallas Foundation, Jalonick was the mother of a 12-year-old daughter and a community volunteer with the Junior League who hadn't been looking for a full-time job. But her grandfather had been one of The Dallas Foundation's founders, and the position seemed like good match for her skills. The job presented some unexpected challenges. When she first began attending meetings with other foundation executives, she was often the only woman in the room. Jalonick said she also spent a lot of time in the early years consulting with attorneys about internal operations – whether The Foundation could or should accept a specific gift or how it awarded grants. Jalonick's arrival coincided with tremendous growth in community foundations. The number of community foundations has more than doubled since she started. There are about 750 currently operating in the United States. As community foundations grew in number and size, they faced a new competitor: commercial gift funds. In 1991, regulatory changes allowed investment firms to create nonprofit affiliates to hold donor-advised funds, which are essentially an alternative to a private foundation. Before then, only community foundations or religious philanthropic organizations held donor-advised funds. Jalonick said community foundations still offer major advantages for donors who want to give strategically and make a difference in their community. "We know local needs and local nonprofits," she said. "We work individually with donors to accomplish their charitable goals – whether it's to involve younger generations in philanthropy, explore critical issues or help an organization build an endowment. Our whole purpose is to link generous donors with agencies that need and deserve support." Another change in philanthropy is the inclination for foundations to work together, and for community foundations to encourage their donors to join together to tackle specific projects. When both The Meadows Foundation and The Dallas Foundation wanted to become more strategic in funding early childhood education, Jalonick and Esterline decided to learn together. They recruited other funders to join them. "Then we had three road trips, to Austin, San Antonio and Houston, to see best practices," Esterline recalled. "We added people each time; Mary became the leader of the group." The people who went on those trips became the nucleus of the Zero-to-Five Funders' Collaborative, which has grown to include close to 40 North Texas donors and foundations. The collaborative invested in the Bachman Lake area to promote early literacy and kindergarten readiness among the neighborhood's mostly low-income, immigrant families. As a result of this joint funding effort, the Bachman Lake Together Family Center, a neighborhood education and community center, opened last year. The Zero-to-Five experience was so productive that when The Dallas Foundation received a large bequest to help companion animals, it seemed natural to work with other funders and animal welfare groups. Thus, the Companion Animal Funders' Coalition was born. That effort resulted in the "Big Fix for Big D," a low-cost – later free – spay-neuter program that sterilized tens of thousands of dogs and cats in Dallas. Jalonick's strong impulse to collaborate has led her to a final career frontier: public policy. "We realized that all we could do, and all foundations could do, was small compared to what the Legislature could do," Jalonick said. "That's when we determined we needed to be more politically active within the boundaries of the law." She joined the Texas Education Grantmakers Advocacy Consortium (TEGAC), a group of community and private foundations that researches issues, develops policy ideas and educates lawmakers. Members chose Jalonick to be the first chair of TEGAC's advisory board. For Esterline, the foray into public policy is the zenith of Mary's remarkable career. "Mary took to public policy like she's been waiting to do it all her life," Esterline said. "She showed the rest of us that hey, we can do this. It's smart and it's effective." "In the local philanthropic scene, nothing of significance has happened that Mary hasn't been a part of or been the head of," he said. "There is nobody who has been as active on so many fronts." Most North Texans have never heard of Louis B. Ratliff, who died in 2009. But a gift from his estate established a fund at The Dallas Foundation to help keep local dogs and cats healthy, loved and safe. And it helped catalyze the effort to control the thousands of loose dogs roaming southern Dallas. The Louis B. and Mary Ratliff Animal Welfare Fund helped pay for a consulting firm's exhaustive study of Dallas Animal Services and the loose dog problem. It's also helping with the solution: The Dallas Foundation, through the Ratliff Fund and other funds, is joining with the Rees-Jones Foundation and the W.W. Caruth Jr. Foundation at the Communities Foundation of Texas to underwrite a spay-neuter surge aimed at dogs in southern Dallas, while also improving public safety and the quality of life for residents. "The Ratliffs' gift encouraged us to become more involved in local animal welfare," said Helen Holman, The Dallas Foundation's chief philanthropy officer. "It led us to help organize a coalition of funders to address the issue of feral cats and stray dogs even before the city fully recognized the extent of the problem." After receiving the Ratliff bequest, The Dallas Foundation partnered with The Meadows Foundation to study animal welfare issues. The foundations met with other interested funders and formed the Companion Animal Funders' Coalition. Its goals are to decrease the number of dogs and cats taken in by Dallas Animal Services and improve the "live release" rate – the percentage of animals claimed by owners or adopted by new owners. The coalition decided the best way to achieve those goals was to prevent dogs and cats from giving birth to unwanted litters of puppies and kittens. In 2011, the funders' coalition teamed up with the City of Dallas and multiple animal welfare agencies to launch "Big Fix for Big D," a low-cost spay-neuter program. The three-year program sterilized 34,000 animals, including about 20,500 dogs. The live release rate climbed at the city animal shelter. But the number of loose dogs continued to grow, as did the number of calls to animal services. Peter Brodsky, chairman of the Dallas Animal Advisory Commission, recruited the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) to perform an in-depth study of the city's animal control operations and its loose-dog problem. The Dallas Foundation's Ratliff Animal Welfare Fund was the lead funder of that consulting project. The BCG report estimated that about 8,000 loose dogs roamed southern Dallas and that fewer than 20 percent of all dogs in the region had been spayed or neutered. (In northern Dallas, 85 percent were sterilized.) The report recommended significant reforms at Dallas Animal Services and a $25 million, privately funded spay-neuter campaign to stop loose dogs from breeding. The Dallas Foundation helped underwrite the cost of hiring another consultant to organize fundraising and write a business plan. In March, Brodsky, standing alongside Mayor Mike Rawlings and several city council members, announced that three local foundations, including The Dallas Foundation, had committed $13.5 million toward the project. The new spay-neuter surge will try to sterilize 46,000 dogs in southern Dallas every year for the next three years. "It is impossible to understate the importance of The Dallas Foundation in the progress we have made in addressing the loose-dog crisis in southern Dallas," Brodsky said. New Governors & Officers The Dallas Foundation's Board of Governors elected four new members at its March meeting. They are: James Huffines is COO of Hilltop Holdings Subsidiaries which includes Plains Capital Bank and Prime Lending. He is chairman of the Governor's University Research Initiative Advisory Board and serves on the board of directors for the Dallas Citizens Council (Executive Committee), the Clements Center at UT Austin and the Southwestern Medical Foundation. S. Todd Maclin is founder of Maclin Management Co., LLC. Maclin retired in 2016 after 37 years with JPMorgan Chase its predecessor organizations. He serves on a variety of nonprofit boards including The University of Texas Development Board, Texas Exes Alumni Association and the Southwestern Medical Foundation. Stephen L. Mansfield, PhD, FACHE, President and CEO of Methodist Health System. He is a past chairman of the Dallas Regional Chamber and servces on the board of the North Texas Commission, the Dallas County Comunity College District Foundation and the Dallas Citizens Council. Clint McDonnough, retired managing partner of Ernst & Young LLP's Dallas office and an independent director of UDR, Inc. He is chairman of the Dallas Citizens Council and serves on the boards of Early Matters Dallas, the Dallas Regional Chamber and the Dallas County Community College District Foundation. The Board of Governors also elected James M. (Jim) Moroney III, of The Dallas Morning News, as its chairman. Consultant Jeanne Whitman Bobbitt is secretary and chair-elect. Over the decades, trees grew and obscured Charles Umlauf's Spirit of Flight sculpture at Love Field. It languished behind construction barricades as the airport underwent a major modernization starting in 2007. Now, Spirit of Flight has regained its prominence. Thanks to Leo Corrigan Sr.'s grandchildren and the airport modernization project, the sculpture was moved to a more visible location and is surrounded by a real park, rather than a parking lot. Its base and fountains have been rebuilt. A newly commissioned sculpture, Contrails, shares the landscaped 10,000-square-foot green space. Granddaughter Catherine Corrigan, a Dallas Foundation donor, said it wasn't difficult to convince her siblings and cousins to contribute to an improved Spirit of Flight park. She and her brother, David, a former Dallas Foundation chairman, share offices decorated with a scaled-down version of the sculpture outside and a red clay model in a display case inside. "Everybody respects what our grandfather did," she said. "We care about the city of Dallas. That's why we're participating." Leo Corrigan Sr. used airports – a lot. His company built The Shops of Highland Park, but it also developed and owned hotels around the world, including properties in Hong Kong, Tokyo and Malta. So when the late Dallas Mayor R. L. Thornton asked Corrigan to underwrite a Love Field art commission, Corrigan agreed. "Flight has made possible so much of whatever I've accomplished," Leo Corrigan Sr. said, according to a 1963 story in The Dallas Morning News. "When I came to Dallas in 1915, it took 24 hours to get to St. Louis by train. Now I can catch a plane right here and be in Hong Kong in 24 hours." Generations of Dallasites and visitors have driven by the sculpture on their way to the airport terminal, said Kay Kallos, PhD, the city's public art program manager. "It's a landmark for Love Field," she said. "People connect to it strongly. It gives them a sense of place. It's nice to have a visual touchstone when everything else around you is changing." City officials expect to rededicate the sculpture later this year, after the new plantings have had a chance to establish themselves. At the 2017 Legacy Society luncheon, Dallas City Manager T. C. Broadnax spoke about nuts-and-bolts issues that concern taxpayers – things like potholes and police pensions. He also addressed a broader topic important to many of the donors and Dallas Foundation governors who attended: What sort of community does Dallas want to be? How does city government help create that? "We need to build collective successes," Broadnax told his audience of about 75 at Arlington Hall on May 3. "People love this city and will do their part to improve the lives of others. As we talk about philanthropic giving, it highlights the importance of the work we have to do together." The Legacy Society is composed of donors who have named The Dallas Foundation as a beneficiary of their will or other planned gift. Each year, The Foundation invites these donors, along with current and former governors, to a luncheon that focuses on long-term community challenges. Past speakers include Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings, Dr. Fred Cerise, president and CEO of Parkland Health & Hospital System, and now-retired city manager Mary Suhm, who serves on The Foundation's Board of Governors. Broadnax, who became city manager in February, said he is trying to move the city council and staff to change their approach to the city budget in an effort to avoid surprises and miscalculations that often pop up just after the council passes its annual budget. Broadnax said he'd eventually like to move to a two-year budget cycle to improve the city's ability to plan and address long-term needs. He also has reorganized some staff positions and is trying to pare away layers of bureaucracy. He said he tells employees, "We've got a lot of ways to say no. You need to be the person who helps get things done." Broadnax said he's realistic, but optimistic, about his new city. "There is so much upside in the city of Dallas," he said. "The sky is the limit." 2S Industries hires men with criminal records or gang affiliations from South and West Dallas to work on its commercial landscaping and home renovation crews. The men earn dependable wages while being exposed to business practices and skilled trades. The work also produces an income stream for 2S Industries, allowing it to rely less on donations to cover its operating expenses. "The innovators we met this year, and in past years, share many qualities," said Nita Prothro Clark, who has led The Dallas Foundation's Pegasus Committee for the past five years. "They are targeted and focused, resilient and nimble in their thinking, and audacious and humble at the same time." The Pegasus Prize recognizes nonprofit agencies that take an innovative approach to ongoing social challenges. 2S Industries started as a social enterprise of another group, 2nd Saturday Community Development Corp. It recruits volunteers to work on home repair and neighborhood beautification projects in West and South Dallas. The group's leadership realized that unemployment was a huge problem in the impoverished neighborhoods. They started 2S Industries to address the high unemployment rates, especially the lack of decent jobs for men returning home from prison. "Our battle cry is that there are job deserts," said Todd Fields, president of 2nd Saturday CDC. "There are major intersections where the only jobs for seven or eight thousand people are check-cashing stores, KFC and 7-Eleven. The whole point is to go where there are no jobs." The Pegasus Prize will allow 2S Industries to buy another truck for its landscaping business and help pay for a caseworker. That position is critical, Fields said, to make sure its crew members stay on top of court dates, parole meetings, child support payments and all the other requirements placed on ex-offenders. The caseworker will also help men develop a new path for their lives, such as going to school to learn a skilled trade. The recognition that comes with the prize is as important as the grant, Fields noted. "It validates us and affirms what we're doing," he said. "It opens some doors for us and maybe some opportunities to grow in scale. You can't put a dollar amount to that." For information about 2nd Saturday and 2S Industries, please visit 2ndsaturday.org. The Dallas Foundation was the first community foundation in Texas to meet a set of 26 rigorous but voluntary national standards developed in the early 2000s. Now, we've done it again. The Dallas Foundation has been reaccredited by the Community Foundations National Standards Board, a program of the Council on Foundations. The accreditation process is thorough and thought-provoking. Community foundations must complete a lengthy application, provide evidence that they are in good standing with all public regulators, and undergo legal and peer reviews. The process examines every aspect of community foundation operations, from gift acceptance policies to governance to investments to grant-making. The standards verify that the community foundation deserves the trust of the donors and agencies it serves. The United States is home to about 750 community foundations; 500 of those are accredited under the national standards program. Back

Convert 1Gb Memory card / Pendrive To 2Gb Instantly Free - Working
Do you like this story?
Wow this is really possible when i was searching for some hacking stuff online. i saw a post where people want to try whether this crack is really working or not. But they are not aware of it so they don't want to take risk. And they didn't even mention what the application is and from where it can be downloaded and etc. So i spent half day for searching the application here and there and finally got the crack in a small forum. So i was in a confusion that will this work or not. I just cant trust it and go blindly so i scanned it in all circumstances and started to convert the card. I was shocked when i completed the process of the application. I was amazed seeing my 1 GB memory card to 2 GB and all the data can be copied according to 2GB size. So just want to give this application to all our friends.
Steps to convert 1Gb memory card / pen drive to 2Gb Instantly Free
* First of all we have to make sure that its a 1 GB ( 970+ Mb ) memory card. This only works on 1GB (970+ Mb) And it supports only in some of the rare cases of memory cards.
* Now Backup all your data in that because we have to format the drive.
* After backing up now open the Skimedi Fix 2GB Capacity application.
* A small window will pop up showing the FIX and Cancel option. And you have to browse the drive where it is located (generally G: or L: drive for USB sticks)
* After selecting the drive press on FIX and then the updating process will be followed up. It will ask your conformation whether you agree to format or not. click on yes.
* Later it will ask to replug the device. Just replug the memory stick card and put it back. The size of the memory will be increased from 1Gb to 2Gb. you can see the properties before and after the cracking process.
* After that you can also check the memory size in phone and also you can test the size by copying all the data to it which is around 2Gb.
My Own Experience With This :-
Two months before I got this software and I used that but that didn't worked for me At that time I used my mobile phone's memory card ( micro sd ) which was of 955 Mb. And I thought that this program is just a fake.
After two months i.e Today . I again struck with this software and though just have a try with my 1 Gb pen drive that actually was having 980 Mb and when I applied this hack My pendrive was converted to 2 Gb instantly and free :-)
So with this I have found new rule that your memory card must be more that of real 975+ Mb then only it will work

A team led by the Aeronautical Repair Station Association (ARSA) is forming a company that will offer liability insurance to repair stations.
About 20 member companies have committed to be founders of the Aviation Alliance Insurance Risk Retention Group (AAIRRG).
The group's goal is to secure enough commitments to incorporate in the second half of 2006. Participation in the AAIRRG will be reserved for ARSA members.
AAIRRG will not be an ordinary insurance company, but rather a risk retention group (RRG). An RRG is a group of independent companies that band together to create and fund a licensed captive insurance company.
Members will pay an up-front capitalization fee as well as a regular premium. The capitalization fee, projected to be about 30% of the members' current annual insurance premium, will help fund the RRG. Each member will get shares in the RRG.

Mayer Brown has experience in many specific matters. Search the entire list.
Mayer Brown has more than 250 lawyers ranked by Chambers worldwide and more than 150 Peer Review Rated lawyers in Martindale Hubbell.
By an ordinance (Mandatsbescheid) issued on March 1, 2015, the Austrian Financial Market Authority ("FMA") has initiated the resolution of HETA ASSET RESOLUTION AG ("HETA"). HETA is the "bad bank" that was established to assume and manage large parts of the Austrian Bank Hypo-Alpe-Adria, which was required to be resolved in accordance with EU regulations. HETA is 100 percent owned by the Republic of Austria, and it currently manages assets worth approximately EUR 18 billion. The FMA is acting in its capacity as resolution authority pursuant to the Austrian Banking Restructuring and Resolution Act ("BaSAG").
The resolution measures have been structured in accordance with the "Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive – BRRD," the new European resolution regime for banks. The FMA imposed a debt moratorium until May 31, 2016 in order to establish a resolution schedule that corresponds to the targets of the BRRD. The decision will change the maturities of all (subordinated and non-subordinated) debt instruments and other liabilities issued by HETA until May 31, 2016, with the exception of certain specifically secured liabilities.
The resolution measure also covers bonds and other claims that were restructured by the "Federal Act on Resolution Measures for HYPO-ALPE-ADRIA-BANK INTERNATIONAL AG" ("HaaSanG"). The ordinance postpones the scheduled maturity of HETA's eligible liabilities (capital and interest) until May 31, 2016. Remedies are required to be filed with the FMA within three months after publication of the ordinance (specifically, by June 1, 2015); this does not entail a suspensive effect. Additional measures are expected, particularly the application of the bail-in by creditors. The FMA also has indicated its openness to solutions by means of negotiation with creditors.
Various questions have arisen for non-Austrian investors:
Mayer Brown advises on these topics in close cooperation with experts in Austria.
Mayer Brown is a global services provider comprising associated legal practices that are separate entities, including Mayer Brown LLP (Illinois, USA), Mayer Brown International LLP (England), Mayer Brown (a Hong Kong partnership) and Tauil & Chequer Advogados (a Brazilian law partnership) (collectively the "Mayer Brown Practices") and non-legal service providers, which provide consultancy services (the "Mayer Brown Consultancies").

How You Can Help!
Learn more about how you can get involved in creating Wakan Tipi Center and encourage your state senator and representative to support House File 53 and Senate File 37, requesting $3M in State of Minnesota funds for our community.
The Lower Phalen Creek Project is requesting bonding funds to develop and construct Wakan Tipi Center. The state legislature will soon consider our request for bonding money to build the Wakan Tipi Center. It is a critical time, and we have a strategy to garner majority legislative support. One important part of that strategy is your help in writing to our legislators and urging them to support the request. Your voices, as leaders in the community, will make an impact! Please also forward this to your connections in the community to ask them to write as well – the more people who write, the better.
House and Senate Capital Investment Committee members' email addresses:
Please write to as many of the legislators as you can, but especially write to any legislators you may know personally or who represent your community. Also send copies of any communications to our local legislators who are sponsoring this request (House File 53 and Senate File 37) and thank them for their leadership and support of this request. They are: Representative Sheldon Johnson at firstname.lastname@example.com and Senator Foung Hawj at email@example.com.
write a letter or email:
Please send a letter urging your legislator to vote yes for bonding funds for the Wakan Tipi Center. Go to the Take Action page and submit a prewritten letter. It takes less than one minute to help!
Thank you very much for your support – we can do this!
Call Your Legislator:
A phone call to your legislator is more impactful, so give your representative a ring and urge them to vote yes!
For information on how to contact your representative go to https://www.gis.leg.mn/iMaps/districts/
Be a volunteer for the cause!
If you want to go to bonding events, attend hearings, or support in any other ways email us at firstname.lastname@example.com
The United States Green Building Council-Minnesota Natural Talent Design Competition provides an applied learning experience in the principles of integrated design, sustainability, innovation and social consciousness. The purpose of the competition is to empower current students and young professionals to become leaders within the green building movement and to help facilitate a green building collaboration between aspiring architects and designers with the USGBC-Minnesota Chapter as well as the professional community. All participants benefit greatly from this competition as they will gain valuable project experience and recognition within the design and construction industry.
The 2015 project was to design the Wakan Tipi Center, the visitor and interpretive center at the Bruce Vento Nature Sanctuary. Teams will not only needed to create an environmentally efficient design and resourceful layout, but also address the history of the site as well as community engagement issues.
The following images are a summary of each of the eight entries. The overall winner of the design competition is first, followed by the two runner up winners. The design schemes and details will help inform the development of Wakan Tipi Center. The Lower Phalen Creek Project Board of Directors greatly appreciates the opportunity to partner with USGBC as well as each of the participants.
Building on 20 years of work on the sanctuary, the Lower Phalen Creek Project will be the designated developer of Wakan Tipi Center, as a living community interpretive center, under a formal development agreement with the City. We have entered an agreement with the City, completed initial community engagement, and will begin implementation in 2018.
Project Goals:
The short term and intermediate term goals of the Wakan Tipi Center project are:
(1) Create a set of community visions for Wakan Tipi Center as a place where we can all gather and share our stories, strengthen our connections and find the unity that lies hidden in our diversity. We will do this by exhaustively recruiting and engaging organizations and individuals in the community who will provide significant and sustained involvement and support in the design and development of Wakan Tipi Center.
(2) Manifest these visions through our daily operations as we design and plan for the center. We will do this by establishing a core group of Community Advisors and such committees as may be useful, to guide and actively participate in the planning for the ongoing exhibits, programs and operations of Wakan Tipi Center.
(3) Maintain resilience, kindness and renewal in the face of change. We will do this by learning from the environmental lessons that nature teaches us and the cultural lessons our community teaches us. We will do this also by continual refreshment of our thinking and our work, by maintaining a spirit of hospitality - keeping the door always open to new ideas and new faces. In particular, we will design the center and landscapes to welcome, enable and encourage our elders to come here to share their wisdom, beauty and strength with the community.
(4) Help ourselves and others by sharing our successes and failures, lessons and outcomes. We will do this by exploring and implementing methods by which we can spread our impact beyond our immediate neighborhoods to the region and beyond.
Project Objectives:
The way we plan for the center will lay the foundation for how we operate the center. Our objectives and strategies will guide who we serve, what we do and how we operate.
Objective 1. Who We Serve: Wakan Tipi Center will serve and involve people and organizations from every ethnic group, all economic strata and all ages. As directed by the community during strategic planning engagement in 2016 and Wakan Tipi Center engagement in 2017, our primary priority will be to serve and involve the Dakota people. This is because the Center will be on ancestral Dakota lands and near a significant Dakota sacred site. Our primary geographic areas for community engagement efforts will the Dayton's Bluff (District 4), Payne-Phalen (District 5) geographic areas. Our third priority will be to serve as a national example, sharing our story with others who are working on similar projects and issues.
Objective 2. What We Do: Wakan Tipi Center will (a) Honor, accurately interpret, engage and educate the community about the rich cultural and natural history and features of the Lower Phalen Creek Corridor and the surrounding community. (b) Honor the significance of Wakan Tipi Cave (on the sanctuary property) as a Dakota sacred site. (c) Create and operate a gathering place and visitor facility for the community and visitors from far and wide.
Objective 3. How We Do It: At Wakan Tipi Center our process is part of our product. As we transform this ancestral Dakota land and recent industrial site into a community gathering place, we will also transform how we interact as members of our community.
We will build upon the work of many community members and volunteers to expand our efforts to engage (as paid staff, consultants and volunteers) a much broader base of support and involvement among people and groups of Dakota, Hmong, African, Latino and European origin.

I live in the UK. I went to the largest garden center i could find to look for Sphagnum Moss Peat, and it was nowhere to be found. I only fond some 'Garden Peat with Sphagnum'. I asked the staff why they didn't sell the proper stuff, and he said that they normally sell Irish Moss Peat which is very good for Vft's, but lately the Peat bogs in Irelend are endangered with running out, so all major garden centers have stopped selling it 1 week ago.
I have found several peats, but need advise to know which one is best for Vft's.
1. Homebase garden center 'moss peat'
2. Wyevale Garden Center ' Garden Peat with Sphagnum'
3. B&Q 'Peat'.
I think that the homebase 'moss peat' is my best bet, but you people here seem to know best.
Help Plz.

Jason Stettner of Gamerheadquarters writes; "If there was any doubt that the Xbox Backwards Compatibility program wasn't amazing for everyone involved, Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 further proves its worth by directly competing with current releases."
Interesting Black Ops 2 managed to be a top 10 selling game in April, despite be over 4 years old ( http://m.ca.ign.com/article... ). Publishers should allow all their 360 games to be playable on XB1
When does backwards compatibility ever need its worth needing to be proven
Not every game is black ops 2 tho. BC is only worth it for a few titles. Having the ability to play them is cool but the small list of titles that make it worth it don't really make it a necessary feature.

Associate Professor of Anthropology Eleanor Harrison-Buck won the 2015 Gordon R. Willey Award for her article "Architecture as Animate Landscape: Circular Shrines in the Ancient Maya Lowlands" published in American Anthropologist 114(1):64-80. The award recognizes the best archaeology paper published in American Anthropologist over the last three years. The winning paper is selected by the Archaeology Division of the American Anthropological Association based on archaeological research that intersects with topics of broad anthropological interest. Harrison-Buck received the award at the annual meeting of the American Anthropological Association in Denver, Colorado, in late November.
In the winning article, Harrison-Buck examines the distribution of marine shells and cave formations that appear incorporated as architectural elements on ancient Maya circular shrine architecture. More than just "symbols" of sacred geography, she argues that these materials represent living entities that animate shrine buildings through their ongoing relationships with human and other-than-human agents in the world. Her work incorporates archaeology, ethnographic comparison and indigenous theory to gain a deeper understanding of Maya perspectives of landscape and sacred geography.

Electrostatic instability in electron-positron pairs injected in an external electric field
Department of Earth and Space Science, Osaka University, Toyonaka 560-0043, Japan e-mail: email@example.com
Corresponding author: K. Asano, firstname.lastname@example.com
Accepted: 28 November 2003
Motivated by the particle acceleration problem in pulsars, we numerically investigate electrostatic instability of electron-positron pairs injected in an external electric field. The electric field is expected to be so strong that we cannot neglect effects of spatial variation in the 0th order distribution functions on the scale of the plasma oscillation. We assume that pairs are injected mono-energetically with 4-velocity in a constant external electric field by which electrons (positrons) are accelerated (decelerated). By solving linear perturbations of the field and distribution functions of pairs, we find a new type of electrostatic instability. The properties of the instability are characterized by u0 and the ratio R of the braking time-scale (determined by the external electric field) to the time-scale of the plasma oscillation. The growth rate is as large as a few times the plasma frequency. We discuss the possibility that the excited waves prevent positrons from returning to the stellar surface.
Key words: instabilities / plasmas / stars: pulsars: general
