A July run up in cotton prices that occurred even as fundamentals for cotton were decidedly bearish was likely a big reason why analysts at the Cotton Roundtable in New York City were having a tough time projecting a potential range for December 2009 futures prices.
"One month ago, we all agreed that we'd have highs around 60 cents or so," said Mike Stevens, with Swiss Financial Services. "We never dreamed what we would see in the 17 sessions leading up to (late July highs). I think realistically, from a fundamental point of view, 65 cents is going to be the high. From a technical standpoint, the specs can take this market a lot higher than they should and a lot higher than we think they can. On that, I would have to raise my projected price level to 70 cents."
Stevens emphasized that the move to 65 cents in late July "was on basically bearish fundamentals. Fundamentally, we can't justify where we are right now, much less it going higher. But try telling that to these money managers buying those first dips every day. It's tough to call. You have to separate the technicals from the fundamentals, but when you're marketing a crop you have to pay attention to both of them."
"We've got some uncertainty involved in the 2009-10 crop," said Carl Anderson, Extension professor emeritus, Texas A&M University. "What's going to be the size of the crop in the world, and will there be an economic recovery? Those questions create in a lot of twists when looking at prices. I see December 2009 in the 60-65 cent range, but if we get a few shocks, like the U.S. crop being lower than we expected, we could see prices rise to 66-68 cents. On the low side, we could see 58 cents."
Joe Nicosia, chief executive officer of Allenberg Cotton Co., said simply that U.S. cotton must be competitive. "I learned a long time ago that the range is substantially wider than anybody can imagine. If you ask if it could trade at 50 cents, I'd say absolutely. If you ask if it could trade at 75 cents, I'd say absolutely. There could even be a 4 in front of the price, or there could be a 7 in front of the price.
"I struggle with what happened in the last three weeks when the nearby futures went to 65 cents, the deferred went to 72 cents and the amount of cotton that began to trade in the world outside the United States was substantial, we're talking millions of bales."
But U.S. cotton was not being traded, said Nicosia. "If you look at the open interest and hedging taking place, it was foreign cotton being marketed at those price levels. We have to remember that China has 20 million bales in its reserve program. That's a crop and a half in the United States. They're selling 55,000 tons a day out of their reserve.
"As we look forward to 2009, I think cotton can trade substantially higher or substantially lower. But it's my guess that we're going to have to slide down to the mid-50s to find export homes and shut off the foreign competition."
Jarral Neeper, president of Calcot, Bakersfield, Calif., sees a "16-cent to 20-cent range on cotton this next year and probably 50 cents to 52 on the low side and 72 cents on the high side. To get up there, you're going to have to have the specs driving the market. I don't think the trade can do it unless you have a crop disaster in the United States, an early freeze or something happening with quality in the crop.
"Right now, we've seen three weeks of export sales that have been pathetic that supports Joe Nicosia's comment that we're not competitive in the market. If we're going to sell U.S. cotton, we're going to have to move back down."
O.A. Cleveland, professor emeritus, Mississippi State University, agrees that cotton has to be priced to move into the export market. "Something with a 7 in front of it on the high side would not surprise me, nor would something with a 4 in front of it on the low side. For me, it's about figuring out where the market is going to have to go for volume to occur, where is the market going to have to spend a lot of time. I am surprised that cotton went to 65 cents.
"I'm a bit bearish and I think we're going to spend lots of time in the mid-50s and low-50s, based on the current weather situation. If you have an early frost in Texas, the market is going to heat right up. But the varieties that we have today, even under weather-difficult times, I think we're going to have a crop bigger than we think."

After long journey, Richards coming into his own
ANAHEIM -- So many of them throw hard, but so few ultimately translate it into success as a Major League starting pitcher.
There's so much more to it up here. You need deception in your delivery, you need to repeat pitches from the same arm slot, you need to command counts, you need to put hitters away, you need to learn the art of generating early contact and you need to compose yourself when perfect pitches leave ballparks.
ANAHEIM -- So many of them throw hard, but so few ultimately translate it into success as a Major League starting pitcher.
There's so much more to it up here. You need deception in your delivery, you need to repeat pitches from the same arm slot, you need to command counts, you need to put hitters away, you need to learn the art of generating early contact and you need to compose yourself when perfect pitches leave ballparks.
The cruel thing about it all is that you don't realize it until you actually get here, and the 12-to-6 breaking ball is fooling nobody, and the high-90s fastball is getting pummeled, and the humility starts setting in.
Angels right-hander Garrett Richards can tell you all about it.
"It's been a long, long road," he said. "I feel like I've done nothing but prove people wrong since."
Richards has come into his own now, at 25 and in the early stages of his sixth professional season.
The Oklahoma product is 3-0 with a 2.84 ERA while averaging 6.3 innings in his first six starts. Richards' walk rate (4.3) is a little high, but he's throwing his fastball more than a full tick faster (94.8 mph in 2013, 96 in '14), is striking out 9.5 batters per nine innings (compared to a rate of 6.1 from 2011-13), sports the lowest hits-per-nine rate in the American League (5.9) and has allowed only one home run in 38 innings.
Chris Iannetta, Richards' primary catcher over the last three years, called all of that "a general progression from the beginning of last season to the end, which continued through Spring Training and into now."
But it dates back so much further for a hurler who wasn't even a successful amateur, with ERAs of 6.30, 6.97 and 6.00 in his three years at the University of Oklahoma.
"I only had a fastball, man," said Richards, who will start Friday's series opener in Toronto. "I could throw 100, but it was belt-high, and they were using the good bats. The ball wasn't cutting, I didn't have a sinker. It was like throwing BP, pretty much."
Richards -- taken with the 42nd overall pick in the 2009 First-Year Player Draft by former Halos scouting director Eddie Bane, who loved to take chances on high-upside talent early in the Draft -- can't even recognize that guy anymore.
With the help of Angels pitching coach Mike Butcher, Richards has refined his curveball, added a potent slider, worked on a changeup, developed cutting action on his four-seam fastball and learned how to execute a glove-side sinker, creating the necessary movement for a pitch designed to tail away from left-handed hitters.
"I look at where I was then and I look at where I am now," Richards said, "and I've worked very, very hard and made some major, major adjustments."
The biggest adjustment?
"Not overthrowing the baseball," he said. "Discovering that you can go 90 percent, have a clean delivery, and the ball is still going to come out the same, if not better. That's something the special ones figure out early on, and some guys blossom a little bit later."
Richards categorizes himself with the latter group, even though he's still relatively young in the game. For a while, he had no idea where he stood.
Richards got a little seasoning in the Majors down the stretch in 2011, starting three games, relieving four and finishing with a 5.79 ERA in 14 innings. He came up again in late May of the following season, when a back injury sent Jered Weaver to the disabled list. Richards posted a 4.42 ERA in a nine-start tryout, went back to Triple-A for a couple of weeks and spent the last five-plus weeks of '12 as a Major League reliever, sporting a 5.82 ERA in 20 appearances.
Richards remained in the bullpen for the first week of 2013, then moved to the rotation when Weaver broke his left elbow. Richards then moved back to the bullpen and posted a 5.54 ERA in four starts, then spent almost three full months as a reliever, then moved to the rotation again when Joe Blanton finally wore out his welcome.
Then something happened.
"When he got in our rotation for the last time last year, I think there was a confidence that you could see building in Garrett," Halos manager Mike Scioscia said of Richards, who posted a 3.72 ERA in 13 starts to finish out the year. "I think he found out his stuff really plays as a starter."
It didn't happen overnight, though. There was no proverbial light switch that went off in Richards' head, no epiphany that finally allowed him to harness some of the best raw stuff in the game. It was part of the progression, of learning what it takes at this level and realizing why it was that he kept failing.
Also, it was continuity and job security.
"When he's got a role and a position that's secure, he knows what he's doing and he's not just flipping from starter to the bullpen, I think that really helps him out a lot," said center fielder Mike Trout, Richards' good friend.
"I've always believed in my ability," Richards said. "It's just getting the repetitions and getting the full-time job and just going out and pitching every five days; not having to wonder if I'm getting sent down after the game."
Every time Trout reaches first -- and that happens a lot -- he asks the opposing first baseman about his own starter, and they're usually most impressed by Richards' stuff.
"I haven't had one person say it was pretty easy to hit," Trout said. "It's nasty."
Of all the pitchers Iannetta has caught over nine years in the big leagues, only one has had comparable stuff -- 2010 Ubaldo Jimenez, who finished third in National League Cy Young Award voting as the ace of the Rockies. He caught Richards in Spring Training of 2012 and knew he had the makings of a dominant starter.
"But," Iannetta cautioned, "there are no gimmies. You never know if a guy's going to be able to do it or not. It's a credit to him, and it's a credit to the people around him that have worked together to get him where he is right now."
When Weaver first laid eyes on Richards, he saw "a thrower." A guy who "just kind of throws stuff up there and hopes for the best."
"But now," the Angels' ace said, "he's relying more on locating and stuff -- not only his fastball, but his offspeed pitches, too."
Richards worked around five walks to pitch five innings of one-run ball and get the win in Houston on April 4. He shut out the Mariners through seven innings in Seattle on April 9. Richards gave up five runs in seven innings to the A's on April 15, then came back with six innings of one-run ball against the Nats on April 21, went toe-to-toe with Masahiro Tanaka while giving up two runs in seven innings at Yankee Stadium on April 27 and beat Texas with six innings of three-run ball Saturday.
"I think we saw signs of what he was capable of doing early on," Weaver said, "and now we're seeing this year that he can be one of the best pitchers in the league, if he puts his mind to it and puts his heart into it."

Lombardi Hospital
Starlight MidAtlantic is a very loyal client of mine that helps seriously ill children and their families cope with their pain, fear and isolation through entertainment, education and family activities. They do some great work and shooting for them is always a pleasure. Every time I go out to shoot with them I am extremely humbled and this time was no exception. These shots were taken at the Vince Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center where the organization had a troop of volunteers show up to give the girls a "day of glamour" and a group of athletes from Georgetown show up to entertain the boys. There was also a local clown act, beauty queens, and costumed heroes on had to contribute to the fun. These kids are soldiers, and I greatly admire the strength the exhibit to push through this difficult time in their lives.Read More

New Colors of DiorKiss Lip Gloss
DiorKiss is one of the classic lip gloss lines from Dior make-up. On June 6th,2008, additional eight new shades will be launched to expand the family of DiorKiss in Japan. The new shades look soft and feminine.The packaging of DiorKiss from the advertisement photo looks a little different from the existing DiorKiss line. It looks like the new lip glosses are packaged in transparent tubes. The current DiorKiss line is packaged in a silver-capped clear tube, and the bottom is hued with silver.
DiorKiss has gained good reviews for its nice lip-plumping effect, glamorous shimmer, great pigmentation, and long lasting quality. It has a sheer, transparent consistency. Each shade is scented with a tasty flavor, such as peach, grapefruit, ...etc. The formula of "Wonder Booster Complex" helps add a volumizing effect. The lip glosses feature an intense level of light-catching sparkles.
Loyal fans love its non-sticky texture. On the other hand, some people still think it is too sticky. While fans enjoy the lovely scent(s) of DiorKiss, some people still find the smell to be overwhelming in a way. But I think it is a matter of personal experience for its texture and confectionery flavors.
I am still not sure if the new shades of DiorKiss will be launched in the US or other countries. I will update this post if I hear more information.

Be ThankfulBe thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough.
Julia & Jurek
Yesterday I did trail maintenance on the Laurel canyon loop which was damaged by a big tree that fell in the Spring. We rerouted a section of trail and built a new trail.
The work was Headed by Trail Dogs with 83 year old Harry in charge. He had some medical issues going on so we carried a chair and fold out table so he could relax while we worked.
Neil of EBRP was helping with the project too. I got to decide where the new trail would go since I know the trails. I ran back of forth thinking what would be best for running or hiking. we went up above the old trail and crossed the old one and went down to the creek where I build a rock bridge and switch backed up on the other side.
There was one section that was sloping that really needed to be flattened out. Crazy Chris was there and he gets credit for that section he really worked hard to make it flat he did an awesome job.
Crazy Chris
Actually everyone did a great job. it was warm out but we were cooled down by the shade of the trees. I was very happy to see my friend Jurek there. He is an amazing volunteer for not just working on the trails but coming out the past 4 years and working the Ohlone 50k. He brings a smile to my face during my hundred knowing that he will be there to cheer me on and help along.
The wonderful volunteers ;-)
Julia also showed up. Chris Julia and I were there getting trail hours in for upcoming hundred mile races.
After we were finished I ended up running back home over Mission Peak about 5 miles in the heat. I go dehydrated so when I go home I drank a ton and took a cold shower.
Me, 1 mile to go before I'm home. I'm baked
Tomorrow after work I leave for my next race Tahoe rim trail 100 miler I ask that you all send me and Andy positive vibes during the race. I am looking forward to this race. Andy and I will be running the whole race together so it will be fun ;-)

Newtown football team buries Brookfield in battle of unbeatens
NEWTOWN -- A disclaimer on Dan Hebert, Newtown football critic: The senior receiver-running back-safety hasn't gone a season in his life without taking at least a few snaps at quarterback, so he grades the passing game on a steeper curve than most.
"It looked pretty wobbly," said Hebert of his own pass to a wide-open Julian Dunn on the double reverse the Nighthawks ran to near perfection on the fifth play from scrimmage in Friday night's anticipated showdown with Brookfield. "It got the job done. The corner bit on the reverse, so I knew I was going to get it to him, but it didn't look pretty."
Pretty or not, Hebert's fluttering pass went for a 30-yard touchdown, igniting an aerial assault which the Nighthawks used to score unanswered touchdowns on their first four possessions in blindsiding the previously unbeaten Bobcats, 35-7.
Fed chance after chance by a stingy defense, junior quarterback Drew Tarantino added four first-half touchdown passes of his own, two of them long strikes to Hebert, to finish 10-of-16 for 213 yards passing. His only pass of the second half was intercepted, his first of the season. Though to find fault with the 4-0 and thus far untested Nighthawks is, of course, nitpicking.
"The kids executed the game plan real well," said Newtown coach Steve George. "We did a good job through the air, with Danny and Drew, which is what we thought we needed to do."
Sports Videos
After the Bobcats' second punt in as many possessions to start the game, Tarantino led a devastating march, repeatedly shimmying out of the clutches of a steady pass rush and connecting on all five of his passes for 69 yards and the Nighthawks' third touchdown, a five-yard strike to Cooper Gold.
"We're synced up," said Hebert, who caught three passes for 100 yards. "We know that when Drew gets out of the pocket, his eyes are up. We know that once that happens, you break off your pattern and get open. And he finds us. He did a great job tonight."
Conversely, Brookfield's deep passing attack was effectively bottled by the Newtown secondary, a unit led by Hebert and Justin DeVellis, who contributed three catches for 46 yards, a touchdown and an interception.
"Big plays -- they made them, we didn't," said Brookfield coach Rich Angarano, who admitted to surprise at both the Nighthawks' opening-drive "razzle-dazzle" and the lopsided outcome itself.
"We came in here to find out what tier football team we were, and I guess we found out," Angarano said. "Unfortunately, tonight we were probably in the middle of the road. ... That's a very good (Newtown) team. They did everything they had to do. The offensive and defensive lines of Newtown kicked our butts."
After a turnover-free first half, the teams traded takeaways on three straight second-half possessions before Brookfield finally got on the board early in the fourth quarter: Junior quarterback Brad Westmark stepping into a hit and connecting with Boeing Brown on a 36-yard touchdown pass on fourth down and 7.
Records: Brookfield 3-1; Newtown 4-0.

I know many people are very excited about RHX dating (and also very skeptical). I was very excited about the proposed technique when it was published in 2009. This technique proposes to use the clock-like, nano-scale process by which water molecules bond with clay mineral crystals. By taking an old ceramic sherd, heating it to remove any mass caused by humidity (atmospheric water), measuring it's mass, then firing the sample at a higher temperature to drive off all the rehydrated (adhered) water and rehydroxylated (chemically bonded) water, one can measure the sample's mass without any water present. After that, carefully tracking the mass of the sample as it quickly starts to reabsorb water from the air allows you to generate an equation that models the time past, the water mass gained, and the rate at which this occurs. So long as you can match the temperature in the room to the average lifetime temperature of the object, a bit of math lets the lab technician calculate how long it took for the sample to reach the weight at which it was discovered by archaeologists. All my posts about RHX dating are all here.
In 2010, we applied for an NSF grant to study this process and see if we could replicate the findings of the UK researchers that had proposed it. We did win that grant, but we did some background work and tried to replicate their study. We published our results in 2011. With that publication under our belt, we reapplied to NSF for more funding to upgrade our lab equipment to match the quality of that being used by the UK team. At first, we were rejected, but then the NSF found a bit of money that allowed us to improve our instruments. Using that grant, we purchased a new Citizen CM11 Microbalance along with a Coy Humidity Control Glove Box. This microbalance allows us to measure 0.001 mg of variation in mass, fully two orders of resolution and sensitivity higher than the balance that was available at Michigan Tech before the NSF award! It's was a lesser piece of equipment than we'd hoped to purchase, but it has permitted us to take our experiments to the next level of research quality.
In November-December 2011, We tested the station to determine the stability of humidity and temperature within the box as well as the stability of microbalance while it is reading in the box chamber environment. Between December 2011 and August 2012, Jarek and Patrick collected and analyzed the mass-gain data corresponding to rehydration/rehydroxylation of Davenport sherds and some brick samples from Houghton, Michigan. After running tests on intact sherds, we also ran some pulverized samples. Jarek and Patrick worked over the data to examine the influence of relative humidity on mass gain and time curves. From that analysis, we just submitted an article for review and publication. This one deals with the question of which model (expressed in an equation) best describes the samples behavior as they rehydrate and rehydroxylate over time. We also raised some questions about the micropore structure of the sherds and how that influences the model.
Figure 2 is from our report to NSF. It shows the fractional mass versus time obtained for the Davenport pottery sample under constant temperature and humidity (plot on the left hand side).
|Figure 2. Compiled fitting results for intact Davenport sherd in both linear time (left column) and time1/n with n= 3.77 (right column). Results were obtained at 22oC and 20%RH.
The right-hand plot in Figure 2 also shows the resulting theoretical fit using the following empirical equation describing the mass gain (m) (or fractional mass gain):
where t is the time, β is the term representing physically bonded water, α is the rehydration kinetics term, γ is the rehydroxylation rate, and n is the rehydroxylation exponent.
Agreement between experimental data and theoretical model is remarkable!
We found problems that present the researchers with challenges to making RHX a standard archaeometric tool for dating fired clay ceramic artifacts. I will write more about those in another post, but I can't say too much until our article is published. I'm also excited to report that our initial success led to a new award from NSF (BCS-1219540)!
Our new collaboration will allow our team at Michigan Technological University to coordinate an experiment involving five different international teams of faculty and students (Michigan Technological University, Arizona State University, California State University-Long Beach, Tel Aviv University, and The University of New England) working on new RHX experiments, advised by a team of UK scientists, many of whom initially proposed this technique, and continue to work on it's refinement (Universities of Manchester, Edinburgh, and Bradford). We will send a set of blind samples for testing to five labs including materials scientists and archaeologists from seven different universities in four countries.
I am very excited!

When it comes to picking out a modern replacement for that aging source unit in your dash, there are hundreds to choose from if all you really care about is cosmetics and connecting your iPod. But if you want more than a pretty face, and demand serious audio performance, the pickings get quite a bit slimmer. There is good news, however. If you have been spending a lot of time unsuccessfully searching for a truly high performance audio-oriented single DIN source unit, your search just might be over. At this year's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, I happened to find just such a product while checking out the new offerings from Alpine Electronics. The new $400 Alpine CDA-117 is designed for anyone who demands exemplary audio performance and an extensive array of built-in sound shaping adjustments. That's right tweakophiles- read on because this one's right up your alley. The Alpine CDA-117 is a single DIN-sized unit, incorporating an AM/FM tuner, CD/MP3/AAC/WMA playback, iPod or iPhone music control and charging, and USB drive connectivity. It's also ready to connect to optional accessories such as a satellite radio, an HD Radio tuner, Bluetooth module and Alpine's amazing IMPRINT processor.
The CDA-117 comes out of the box loaded with useful features and capabilities. These days it's expected that most source units will integrate well with a wide variety of digital media sources, and this unit is no exception. But what really separates this unit from a lot of others is the high performance audio output section, featuring a 24-bit Burr-Brown DAC, true 4 volt front, rear, and independently adjustable level subwoofer RCA outputs, not to mention the powerful built-in DSP controls for equalization, time correction, and high pass crossovers. Equipped with Alpine's popular MediaXpander circuitry that helps restore clarity to lousy files, this new Alpine
is a tweaker's delight.
Built into the sound control functions are two different equalizers, a 7 band graphic EQ with set frequencies and fixed Q values, or a 5 band parametric style EQ that provides custom equalization settings for frequency, filter Q, and boost/cut. You can also adjust the delay of individual channels to compensate for speaker placement and pathlength differences, and the adjustment is wide enough to compensate for differences over 10 feet! Still want more?
Subwoofer level and phase are also adjustable via the DSP, and a high pass filter with three different selectable frequencies (63, 80 and 100Hz) allows you to remove low frequency information that may damage fragile midrange drivers.
And just in case all this still isn't enough tenability for you, the CDA-117 will also control the powerful Alpine PXA-H100 IMPRINT processor which uses the Audyssey MultiEQ XT technology for a vast array of tuning possibilities.
If you're just getting started on a killer system, and have to build it as the budget allows, the CDA-117 will still be a great choice, because it also has a defeatable built-in 18Wx4 power amplifier, and a fan-cooled heatsink! But don't think for a minute the CDA-117 is without convenience features, with Bluetooth ready connectivity for hands-free calling (needs the optional KCE-400BT module), and it's also ready to be connected with a TUA-T550HD HD Radio tuner module or a satellite radio tuner, both optional. The CDA-117 also supports iTunes tagging from FM stations broadcasting an RDS signal and HD Radio stations, allowing you to easily and conveniently acquire those songs for your collection the next time you synch your iPod with iTunes. And Alpine's paying attention to the details too, because the CDA-117 even comes with locking caps to prevent the USB connections from vibrating apart over time.
To me, the ability to control and use my source unit without becoming distracted is of paramount importance. The Alpine gets high marks in this regard, with a naturally intuitive rotary volume control, and large well placed buttons for the most commonly used functions. I have been a fan of Alpine's excellent BioLite display technology since it was introduced in 2004. This type of display offers excellent readability from extreme angles, as well as in direct sunlight. The two-line, multi-color 156x38 resolution display on the CDA-117 is very easy to read, with white text on a simple black background. And I'm delighted to report that in addition to a selection of font styles and display patterns, the display can also be configured to completely eliminate those distracting, and generally annoying, moving backgrounds. You may call it plain, but I call it clear, and easy to read at a glance. Ever wonder why there are no dancing dolphins on the dials in an airplane cockpit?
But, for those of you who may be bored with logical, easy to read, high contrast displays, Alpine has also included 3 or 4 different animated "wallpapers" for you, should you feel the need to degrade one of the best displays in the industry.
With a bit of practice and experience, navigating the menus and controls required for sonic adjustments is all relatively simple and intuitive, although there is so much control available I'd suggest you don't mess with it too much unless the car is standing still. Thankfully, frequently adjusted settings like subwoofer level are a one button press away, and can be done with little distraction. The CDA-117 comes with the cable to connect your iPod or iPhone for music playback. iPod control is also quite intuitive once you learn the buttons required for the various methods of navigating your iPods menus. Alpine's selection of button placement and commands may be a bit confusing at first, but after a day or two, everything does become quite logical and intuitive to use. The iPod control interface is fast and there are several different ways to search for any artist or song. In fact, Alpine is one of my favorite brands for iPod interfacing in general, and after you understand the controls, using it will quickly become second nature.

Uganda, located below Kenya and above the Congo in Africa, is one of the world's poorest countries. It sits astride the equator in the midst of the Nile River basin, but has snow-capped mountains in its northern area.
Uganda, located below Kenya and above the Congo in Africa, is one of the world's poorest countries. It sits astride the equator in the midst of the Nile River basin, but has snow-capped mountains in its northern area.
Ironwork was developed there 2,000 years ago, but years of civil unrest and violence in many areas have led to the country being what it is today. An average wage is about $400 per year.
Psychology professor Tish Hutchinson, a member of Rainbow City's Christ Central Church, recently returned from a 16,000-mile round-trip to that stricken country which has a heavily infected HIV population.
"The death toll of men and women from that disease has led to 5,000 children being left in the care of a few orphanages," she said. "Thousands of other children, of all ages, are simply left to the streets.
"I joined a group of 55 missioners from several denominations and seven states to deliver food to rural orphanages," she said. "The poverty I saw was absolutely indescribable; children with filthy clothes, infected ringworm and open sores, playing in the dirt. No grass, just dirt — it reminded me of growing up in Perry County."
Hutchinson has traveled to more than 30 countries but never to any in Africa. "I have always wanted to go to Africa and work with orphans; this past year I applied for a trip and was accepted," she said.
"The Ugandan Thunder Show Choir performed in this area last year, and I hosted several children while they were here," she said. "I saw the opportunity to go to where they came from and felt God calling me to do so. It was a wonderful experience for me and all who made the trip."
The story begins with Ted Moody, a retired Georgia minister who had his heart broken on a trip to Uganda. A pastor there asked Moody to please help him feed the orphan children he was trying to care for, because they had no food.
Hutchinson said what began in 2007 with Vacation Bible School donations for one orphanage has grown in the last six years to include 14 different orphanages.
"Pennies for Posho (finely ground corn meal mixed with beans, a staple food in Uganda) now feeds 5,000 children three meals a day, 365 days a year," she said. "The food is delivered three times a year by teams such as the one I was on. The funds come from sponsorships of the children, which is $9 a month per child. Other funds are gained through love offerings collected at concerts by the Ugandan Thunder Show Choir."
One of the schools visited by Hutchinson's group was impressive in that it was well run. "But the needs are great," she said. "The girl's dorm was about the size of two of our upstairs bedrooms and housed 59 girls — no beds, just mats. But they were so proud of their home. The boys' dorm was about half that size and housed 39 boys who slept in shared bunk beds."
The nearest water source for the school is more than a mile away meaning a long walk — the only means of transportation — to obtain a bucket of what is not necessarily clean water. That walk has to be done several times a day to carry water for several hundred children.
A drive is under way to raise $10,000 to dig a well and pipe it into the school. Hutchinson has pledged to raise $1,000 for that project from this area.
"Our group has pledged the entire amount, and the work to build the well is already underway," she said.
Hutchinson's lifelong dream of working with orphans in Africa has been fulfilled. "I'm thrilled to be a sponsor of 'Pennies for Posho' and the Ugandan Thunder Show Choir, which is made up of very talented children ranging in age from six to 12 years old," she said. The choir is scheduled to return to the Gadsden area in 2014.
More information regarding "Pennies for Posho" is available at www.penniesforposho.org. Hutchinson is available for speaking engagements by calling Christ Central Church, 256-442-6625.

If the macOS installer can't create a recovery system on your disk, it allows you to continue the installation, but warns that some macOS features won't be available. That can happen in these circumstances:
- You're installing on a RAID volume. macOS doesn't create a recovery system on RAID volumes.
- You're installing on a volume that contains a Boot Camp partition that was modified outside of Boot Camp Assistant or added after using Boot Camp Assistant. To resolve, back up and erase your startup disk, including the Boot Camp partition, then reinstall macOS and use Boot Camp Assistant to create a new Boot Camp partition.
You don't need a recovery system to install and use macOS, but without it you can't use FileVault, set up a firmware password, or use Disk Utility to repair the disk.

I don't sell tons of stuff on ebay, but every once in a while I will unload a bunch of stuff (sometimes Lego). The last two times I've listed items, they were won by bidders in other countries (I live in the US), which I don't have a problem with. The problem is, both times I've shipped the items to them, they never received them. I don't overcharge for shipping and I try to keep my shipping costs as close to actual as possible. Both times, the bidders wanted to keep shipping costs as low as possible, and the latest one the guy haggled with me to get the absolute lowest shipping rate possible, which was USPS First Class with no tracking order.
My question is, is the USPS really that unreliable when sending First Class internationally? One of the items was supposed to go to Mexico and the other the Philippines. Are some countries more reliable than others? As far as I know, I'm filling out the customs forms correctly, but has anybody had issues with things being held up in customs for a long time? I'd hate to have to list "US bidders only" when I sell stuff, but this has been a real problem for me and I hate giving out refunds because my stuff never gets there.
I know there is always the possibility with any order without a tracking number that it actually did get there and the buyer is claiming it didn't to get a refund and thus a free item, but I'm not going to go there and try pushing that. I figure if someone is ripping me off, there's no way I could prove it and nothing I could do about it anyway, so I just assume if they say it didn't get there, that it didn't.
Anyway, I'd be curious to know if others (not just those in the US) have had the same problem with shipping to other countries.

Lesbianism is sexual activity or attraction between women. Female homosexuals are often called lesbians (after the Greek island of Lesbos, home of Sappho, the poetess of Lesbos). Women who are attracted to both women and men are called bisexuals.
The first known written usage of the word "lesbian" in the sense meant here dates only from the 19th century. Earlier uses of the word from as far back as the 17th century, can be found but used in an entirely different sense. Lesbianism is also called sapphism or female homosexuality. (Sappho penned love sonnets to women. She lived from 610-580 B.C.)
In 1997, the National Breast and Cervical Cancer Prevention Program included lesbians as a priority population.[1]
In the United States, estimates of lifetime same-sex behavior among women are 8%–20%, and 1.4%–4.3% of all women may be sexually active with other women. An estimated 2.3 million women describe themselves as lesbian. In its 1999 report, Lesbian Health: Current Assessment and Directions for the Future, the Institute of Medicine emphasized that more data on sexually transmitted infections (STIs), Pap smear screening, and risk for cervical cancer in lesbians were needed.[2]
Lesbianism and Health Issues
For more information please see: Lesbianism and Obesity
In regards to lesbianism and obesity, in April 2007, the American Journal of Public Health analyzed data from 2002 National Survey of Family Growth and the data suggested that American lesbian women were 2.69 times more likely to be overweight and 2.47 times more likely to be obese than all other female sexual orientation groups. [3] The abstract for this study indicated that "lesbians are at greater risk for morbidity and mortality linked to overweight and obesity." [3]
In 2009, the PubMed article abstract for a Polish psychiatry journal Psychiatria Polska article declared:
|Homosexual women are less concentrated on physical appearance and more satisfied with their bodies while being more tolerant to obesity.... For lesbian women the ideal body image is more massive than for heterosexual women.[4]
In 2007, a purported lesbian wrote to Andrew Sullivan, the political commentator and administrator of The Daily Dish blog:
|And - oh heck, I'll admit it - aesthetics have value, too! As a woman, I may not be as focused on looks as men are predisposed to be, but I sure am tired of seeing so many queer ladies out there who are way past 200 pounds. Way, way past. Sorry, but no amount of "fat acceptance" is going to make that a pleasant sight - gay, straight, butch, femme, male or female.[5]
However, liberals assert that lesbians are considered to be amongst the lowest risk groups for some STDs including HIV [6]

urban meyersports
The solution to the university of florida football program downfall during the zook years(2002-2004). Meyer took over for Ron zook in 2005 after zook was fired for being the worst coach in florida football history. Meyer took over a team that was used to losing close games and made them 9-3 his first year and then went 13-1 his second year in 2006 to win the national title. He won with a lot of players that zook recruited so people hate on him and say he needs to win with his own players, but now into his fourth year and 3 top 3 recruting classes later, meyer and his gators are going to the second national title in three years and most likely will add another trophy to the shrine in gainsville. Meyer saved the Gators from becoming as mediocre as vanderbilt is at football.
Bob-hey the Gators beat the shit out FSU last week 45-15

I meant to post this just prior to Mother's Day, but you know how life can be…
The New-York Historical Society Museum and Library is hosting an exhibition on the history of brewing in New York. Prior to Prohibition, NY had a thriving brewing industry, with vast plants in Brooklyn (we lived down the street from a former brewery site in Bushwick), Queens, and even Manhattan.
The museum's Tumblr is posting images from the exhibit, including some great old advertisements. For more on the exhibit, here's a piece from the WSJ.
The exhibit opens today, May 25, and runs through September 2.

I have got to tell you that a Sloppy Joe is one of the very first dishes I ever learned how to make. A Sloppy Joe is without a doubt an American "kid friendly" sandwich. If you never had a Sloppy Joe, it is a tasty, messy burger made with ground beef and a tangy sweet tomato sauce. To make a Sloppy Joe, all you have to do is brown up some ground beef, add some Sloppy Joe sauce, ladle on a burger bun and there's dinner. Easy.
I was in the mood the other day for a Sloppy Joe sandwich and I had no ground beef stashed in the freezer. I did not even have ground bison or turkey either. However, I had lentils in my cupboard… I had heard of people preparing Sloppy Joes with lentils before and I knew that when lentils are cooked they have a meaty like texture. So, I made my standard Sloppy Joe sauce and added cooked lentils instead of beef. I tasted it and it was good!
When Bruce came home that evening, I told him that I made these for our dinner. He gave me his me his famous dirty look and quickly reminded me that he hated beans. I looked back at him, smiled, handed him his Sloppy "Lentil" Joe sandwich, crossed my fingers, and said "sorry hon, I forgot". I then watched him out of the corner of my eye while he ate the sandwich. And get this… He looked as if he liked it! After he was finished, he said that he thought it was really good and that he almost forgot that there were lentils in it. I guess he'll eat beans now :).
My recipe for Sloppy "Lentil" Joes is easy to make, completely meatless and healthy for you. Not to mention, they are wickedly good. Enjoy! Tessa
- 1 cup brown lentils (rinsed and picked over)
- 3 cups water
- 3/4 cup chopped onion
- 3/4 cup chopped red bell pepper
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1 14.5 ounce can diced tomatoes
- 1 8 ounce can tomato paste
- 3/4 cup tomato ketchup
- 2 Tbs brown sugar
- 2 tsp garlic paste
- 1 tsp dried mustard
- 1/4 tsp black pepper (or to taste)
- 2 tsp kitchen bouquet (browning sauce for color)
- salt to taste
- 4 to 6 whole wheat burger buns
- garnish with pickles
Begin by cooking the lentils and water in a sauce pan on covered on medium low for about a half an hour or until the lentils are cooked to your liking. I did not add salt to the lentils for I heard that salt toughens up the beans. Drain. Mash lightly with potato masher.
Meanwhile, in skillet or pan, saute the onions and bell pepper in olive oil. Cook until onions are opaque. Add remaining ingredients except for the lentils, burger buns and pickles. Cook on medium low, covered, for about the same amount of time as the lentils, stirring occasionally. When the lentils are done, add to the tomato mixture, taste, and correct your seasonings. Add water if necessary. Ladle on warmed whole wheat burger buns, garnish with pickles and serve. Makes 4 to 6 Sloppy "Lentil" Joes.

When We Said OLPC Should Act Like A Tech Company, We Didn't Mean Microsoft
from the bureaucracy dept
In the latest blow to the OLPC project, the organization's security chief, Ivan Krstić, has resigned over philosophical disagreements with the organization's direction. The nub of the dispute seems to be chairman Nicholas Negroponte's belief that now that it's out of its startup phase, the project needs to be run "more like Microsoft." Krstić complains that the organization's previous president, Walter Bender, was demoted, and Krstić was asked to report to "a manager with no technical or engineering background who was put in charge of all OLPC technology." Now as we've said before, it's healthy that the OLPC organization is beginning to realize that they face many of the same challenges as for-profit technology companies, and might be more successful if it adopted some of their methods. But bringing in non-technologists for senior leadership positions and adopting a rigidly hierarchical org chart might be taking things a little too far. Culture matters in technology companies, and it probably matters even more in an organization like OLPC that depends on having employees willing to go above and beyond the call of duty for relatively modest pay. More orderly management is a good thing, but not if you cause your best people to jump ship in the process.

I have gone back and forth with Senator Rubio's office as to whether the Gang of Eight's bill is fatally flawed because of the vast discretion it gives federal bureaucrats, including the Department of Homeland Security, in implementing the act. On the subject of DHS discretion, Rubio's office said to us:
I'd disagree with your description of the discretion given to the Administration as "vast discretion", but the waivers & discretion that we do give is worth closer inspection, and we're looking to address in the amendment process.
So this is obviously a key point. Today Senator Jeff Sessions' office sent out this commentary on the scope of discretion that the bill gives DHS to ignore criminal behavior, among other things, in making decisions as to who stays in the U.S., and who is admitted to the U.S. under the act. It is lengthy but well worth your time, as in this case, like so many, the Devil is in the details:
Not only does the Gang of Eight's bill allow the Secretary of Homeland Security to decide for herself whether weak, undefined enforcement measures ("triggers") are met, but it grants her unprecedented discretion in determining whether an alien is allowed to enter the country, whether future illegal aliens can be removed from the country, and who is eligible for amnesty in the bill. The net effect of these waivers and discretionary authority is to permanently hamstring and undermine law enforcement and create a new, endless bureaucracy surrounding immigration proceedings. These provisions, carefully crafted by special interest immigration attorneys, serve only one purpose: to weaken current law and make future enforcement impossible.
* For instance, this bill would allow the Secretary to overlook convictions for crimes related to gang activity, child abuse, domestic violence, and drunk driving in determining whether an individual is eligible for admission to the country if the person's admission serves "humanitarian purposes," "ensure[s] family unity," or is in the "public interest." These standards are so broad as to render most current legal restrictions meaningless.
* S. 744 would also grant the Secretary of Homeland Security and Immigration Judges enormously broad discretion to block the removal of any future legal and illegal aliens—including convicted criminals—where such a removal is not in the "public interest" or would result in mere "hardship" to the alien's U.S. citizen or permanent resident parent of a child, spouse or child.
* The bill would allow the Secretary of Homeland Security, when determining whether an individual is eligible for amnesty, to overlook that individual's convictions for the following types of offenses that would otherwise render the alien inadmissible to the United States: a crime involving moral turpitude (which could include theft, child abuse, domestic violence, and a variety of other serious crimes); a controlled substance (non-trafficking) offense; and multiple drunk driving offenses (which, interestingly, is added as a ground of inadmissibility elsewhere in the bill), if the Secretary determines that granting the individual amnesty would serve "humanitarian purposes," "ensure family unity," or is in the "public interest."
* In reviewing an application for the amnesty provided in the bill, the Secretary is explicitly barred from considering: document forgery, skipping court-ordered removal hearings, making false statements to authorities, multiple illegal re-entries, or felony arrests that did not result in convictions.
* Even those who have been deported are eligible to apply for amnesty under the bill. Current law requires the Attorney General to automatically remove an alien who re-enters the U.S. after being deported. Under S. 744, however, this would no longer apply to future deportees who re-enter the U.S. before reaching 18 years of age. It would also no longer apply to any deportee—regardless of age—whose removal the Secretary determines would not be in the "public interest" or would result in "hardship" to the alien's U.S. citizen or permanent resident parent, spouse, or child. For instance, under this bill, an alien who was removed after committing a deportable offense—such as assault or a crime involving moral turpitude—and returns before the age of 18 is no longer deportable, as he would be under current law.
* S. 744 provides that an alien is ineligible for amnesty if he has been convicted of three or more misdemeanor offenses on different dates, other than minor traffic offenses (a term which is not defined). That means that an alien is eligible for amnesty even if he or she has been convicted of two misdemeanor criminal convictions, or even a theoretically unlimited number of misdemeanor criminal convictions, as long as the convictions occurred on the same date. That also means that an alien who committed a serious felony offense but had his charges reduced to a misdemeanor as the result of a plea bargain is eligible for amnesty. Despite these already lax requirements, the Secretary is given authority to waive the bar for even those with multiple convictions.
* S. 744 also provides that Immigration Judges have the authority to appoint attorneys to illegal aliens at government expense. The appointment of an attorney at government expense is unprecedented outside of the criminal court context.
Rather than enhance border security and ensure future enforcement of the law, S. 744 rewards illegal aliens with criminal records, and creates an incentive for people to illegally enter the United States in the future. In essence, if S. 744 passes as currently drafted, the following scenario is not at all unlikely: An individual who has previously been convicted of a crime and subsequently removed from the United States illegally crosses the border at one of the six sectors not addressed by S. 744. The United States Border Patrol apprehends that individual, and rather than simply expediently removing him from the United States, places that individual into removal proceedings before an Immigration Judge. The Immigration Judge appoints an attorney for the alien at taxpayer expense. The attorney assists the alien in demonstrating that any future removal would cause mere "hardship" to a qualifying relative. The Immigration Judge terminates the case and permits the individual to stay in the United States—presumably indefinitely.
Quite opposite from creating the "toughest" enforcement in history as the proposal sponsors' promised, this legislation would devastate enforcement and officer morale and disastrously undermine the rule of law for years to come.

The U.S. is fast closing on its debt ceiling, increasing the urgency to reach a budget cutting compromise that Republicans and Democrats can agree to. While Rep. Paul Ryan's 2012 budget proposal recommended cutting a whopping $30 billion from farm programs, an even greater cut is under consideration.
Vice President Joe Biden is leading a debt ceiling group that plans to cut $200 billion from the budget. Rumors circulating indicate that close to one quarter of that – or about $45 billion – could come from agriculture, specifically the Commodity Title and crop insurance, and the Biden group would themselves write that policy.
While it is vital to cut the deficit and reach an agreement on the debt ceiling, common sense dictates that using a program that comprises a mere one quarter of one percent of the federal budget to achieve one fourth of total deficit reduction, is far beyond the scope of fairness. Whatever deficit reductions come from agriculture should be turned over to the agriculture committees to ultimately draft the policies and programs that will so deeply affect our farmers, food, fiber and fuel supply, and rural economy.
Most importantly, both the House and Senate must vote to ratify any deficit cutting agreement. NSP is working hard with members of Congress, both within and outside of the Biden group, to inform them of the imbalanced cuts and build support for maintaining the agriculture safety net.
