Jason Miller Takes on KU Med Center
Local Activist Takes On KU Med Center: KU Med Lies, Abuses Animals, and Shreds the Constitution'.
Posted by thomaspainescorner on September 4, 2010
Researchers Seek Restraining Orders Against Jason Miller
By Jason Miller
[Editor's note: Please Contact Barbara Atkinson, KU Med's Executive Vice Chancellor, and tell her that what KU Med is doing to primates is wrong and to stop wasting our tax money on cruelty and fraudulent science! She is at (913) 588-1440 and firstname.lastname@example.com.
Contact Francis Collins, Director of the National Institute of Health (KU Med's source of funding) at 301-496-2433 and email@example.com and tell him to stop providing public monies to a 'research facility' that was cited for 160 violations of animal welfare laws by the USDA!]
Here is the local media's take on the situation (note that KCTV 5 mistakenly stated that KU Med vivisects chimps. Their victims are actually macaques and squirrel monkeys):
Here is my take:
With respect to the University of Kansas Medical Center's statement in the KCTV 5 news clip, 'Center officials said they have fixed the problems, but none of the issues dealt with animal welfare,' it is an utter fabrication. The University of Kansas Medical Center has blatantly lied to the media and to the public (who is funding their abject animal cruelty with millions of tax dollars) throughout our campaign to shut down their primate vivisection program.
From KU Medical Center continues to torture and murder innocent primates with impunity'.
Dear Ms. Nielsen,
Sorry for the delayed response, but I've been preoccupied with other animal defense issues.
In light of this 12/31/09 article from the Kansas City Star, I fully understand why you would deny our request to observe and document the 'ethical research' funded by our tax money and why you would also bar the media from entry to your laboratories.
As I'm sure you are aware, Mara Rose Williams of the Star wrote:
USDA cites KU Medical Center for violation of animal protection laws
'The University of Kansas Medical Center has been cited for about 160 violations of federal animal protection laws during experiments at university laboratories'.
'.The USDA report describes how monkeys that were afflicted with an infectious disease were left to suffer from extreme weight loss, vomiting, diarrhea and neurological disorders for at least a day after they met criteria for euthanization. The monkeys were part of a study funded by the National Institutes of Health.
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals has called for the NIH to take back federal grant dollars awarded to KU Medical Center for that research in which the violations occurred'''
AND from The University of Kansas Medical Center has become known for violating the Animal Welfare Act'.
By Michael Budkie
Simulposted with SAEN
According to the annual report filed with the USDA by the University of Kansas Medical Center, this facility experiments on and/or holds captive about 150 primates per year, a relatively small amount. The report which contains this statistic is a bland one page document which belies the cruel reality that it represents.
A cross-section of the lives of these animals is represented by a stack of documents which is just over a foot tall. The existence of these highly intelligent animals has been reduced to so much paper and ink. Their identities represented only by numbers, their passing marked only by the word 'euthanized.'
The University of Kansas Medical Center has become known for violating the Animal Welfare Act. In fact, recent inspections for the period from September 2007 to June of 2009 catalogue 58 pages of violations, many of which involve primates and their deaths. The USDA inspectors who wrote these documents uncovered heinous acts of cruelty which prolonged the pain these animals endured. One monkey was allowed to deteriorate so severely that his/her weight dropped by 26.8%, or just over '. Another primate, whose skull had been opened to have a recording chamber put into place, did not receive anything close to adequate treatment. These recording chambers can harbor serious bacterial infections which can lead to brain abscesses, and so they are supposed to be cleaned regularly. The chamber of one animal at this facility had not been cleaned for three weeks. It is amazing that s/he was still alive.
Another monkey who died during 2008, #0A0, lost 22% of his body weight, which should have been sufficient to qualify for euthanasia. However, the suffering of this animal was allowed to continue. The USDA report states: 'He was sitting curled up on his perch while I was hosing his cage and would make a screeching sound. I gave him a cereal bar, but he was having difficulty picking it up'.
On Thursday, September 2, the issue of the vivisectors' TRO's against me was meant to be laid to rest.
However, the three vivisectors, who were previously unrepresented, arrived with an attorney, Tim Keck. He advised David Bell, my attorney, that he had several witnesses to attest to the stalking allegations in the TRO's.
I have posted David Bell's well-constructed and powerful argument, which he has filed with the court as a brief, below. As you will read, our position is that none of the allegations in the TRO rise to the level of 'stalking' (and some are false) and that the TRO is an infringement on my First Amendment rights.
Since David was not apprised of the witnesses in advance, Judge Phelan agreed to continue the hearing until 11/30 at 9AM. Due to the highly contentious and complex nature of this situation, he has set aside an entire day for this hearing.
Most TRO hearings are over in about 5 minutes and a vast percentage of them pertain to domestic violence situations. This is a significant battle for Constitutional rights and the ability of social justice activists to exercise their First Amendment rights.
Here is David's argument, which is long but so powerful that it is well worth the read:
COMES NOW Jason Miller (hereinafter 'Respondent') by and through counsel, and hereby submits suggestions and support in opposition to Petitioners' Request for Order of Protection filed against him pursuant to K.S.A. 60-31a01, et. seq.
Respondent's alleged conduct is protected under the First Amendment of the United States Constitution, made applicable to the state of Kansas through the Fourteenth Amendment, and therefore any action brought pursuant to K.S.A. 60-31a01, et. seq., is barred.
The First Amendment, applicable to the States through the Fourteenth Amendment, provides that 'Congress shall make no law ' abridging the freedom of speech.' Virginia v. Black, 538 U.S. 343, 358 (U.S. 2003). The hallmark of the protection of free speech is to allow 'free trade in ideas'' even ideas that the overwhelming majority of people might find distasteful or discomforting. Id. The First Amendment affords protection to symbolic or expressive conduct as well as to actual speech. Texas v. Johnson, 491 U.S. 397, 404-405 (U.S. 1989). 'The First Amendment protects [Respondent's] right not only to advocate their cause but also to select what they believe to be the most effective means for so doing.' Meyer v. Grant, 486 U.S. 414, 424 (U.S. 1988). First Amendment standards 'must give the benefit of any doubt to protecting rather than stifling speech.' Citizens United v. FEC, 130 S. Ct. 876, 891 (U.S. 2010). It is not acceptable for the state to prevent a speaker from exercising his constitutional rights because of the reaction to him by others. Beckerman v. Tupelo, 664 F.2d 502, 509 (5th Cir. Miss. 1981).
The Protection from Stalking Act was enacted in order to protect victims of stalking and to facilitate access to judicial protection for stalking victims. K.S.A. 60-31a01. As defined by the act, 'stalking' means an intentional harassment of another person that places the other person in reasonable fear for that person's safety; 'harassment' means a knowing and intentional course of conduct directed at a specific person that seriously alarms, annoys, torments or terrorizes the person, and that serves no legitimate purpose; and all constitutionally protected activity is not included within the meaning of 'course of conduct.' K.S.A. 60-31a02.
Three separate Petitions for Protection From Stalking Orders ('Petitions') were filed against Respondent pursuant to K.S.A. 60-31a01, et. seq. Petitions were filed by (1) Dianne Durham, Ph. D, Kansas University Medical Center, Otolaryngology Department, Director of Research ('Durham Petition'); (2) Paul D. Cheney, Ph. D., Kansas University Medical Center, Department of Molecular and Integrative Physiology, Director of Research ('Cheney Petition') and (3) Navneet K. Dhillon, Ph. D., Kansas University Medical Center, Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education & Research ('Dhillon Petition'). Collectively, Petitions alleged that an order of protection is necessary to protect from harassment by Respondent. Petitions also stated that each individual feared for their safety.
Respondent is a known Animal Rights Activist. Approximately six months prior to filing of the Petitions, Respondent learned through an Animal Rights Organization called 'Stop Animal Exploitation Now' that Kansas University Medical Center ('KUMC') was engaged in the practice of conducting medical experiments on primates. Upon learning of said experimentation, Respondent conducted his own investigation into the policies of KUMC as it concerns the treatment of primates. Specifically, Respondent learned of an article published in the Kansas City Star on December 31, 2009, which stated that KUMC had been cited for 160 violations of federal animal protection laws during experiments at university laboratories. The article quoted a USDA report which described how monkeys that were afflicted with an infectious disease were left to suffer from extreme weight loss, vomiting, diarrhea and neurological disorders for at least a day after they met criteria for euthanization. Upon further inquiry, Respondent became aware that a federal grant had been awarded to KUMC and that grant monies were being used for the research in which the violations had occurred.
Appalled by federal funding contributing to the unethical treatment of animals at KUMC, Respondent engaged in a proactive, peaceable campaign in order to make the public aware of such transgressions. Respondent took numerous measures to bring the matter to the attention of the public, and to voice his displeasure with KUMC's policies, including, but not limited to: (1) organizing a protest at 39th Street and State Line; (2) making numerous blog postings regarding KUMC's unethical animal treatment; (3) visiting neighborhoods and businesses surrounding KUMC to educate the public about KUMC's research policies; (4) organizing a rally at 47th Street and Main Street; and (5) writing President Barack Obama to voice his displeasure with KUMC's use of its research grant.
Nevertheless, and despite Respondent's efforts, KUMC continued its medical research practices. However, three KUMC employees filed Petitions for Temporary Orders of Protection against Respondent. Durham Petition alleged three incidents of stalking attributable to Respondent: (1) a protest on a sidewalk outside of her home; (2) receiving threatening voice mail messages on her office phone; and (3) posting of the video of the protest outside her home on Respondent's website. Cheney Petition alleged the following incidents of stalking: (1) Respondent and associates came to his home and posted stickers with messages such as 'Animal Murder;' (2) Respondent circulated fliers to Petitioner's neighbors and outside KUMC condemning Petitioner's role in animal research; (3) Respondent sent an email to Petitioner directing him to Respondent's website; and (4) Petitioner received phone calls at work and at home 'believed to be' connected to Respondent. Dhillon Petition also alleged three incidents of stalking: (1) Petitioner received an email from Respondent which described her as an 'animal torturer;' (2) Petitioner was sent an email containing a link to Respondent's website; and (3) fliers were distributed at KUMC condemning the actions of Petitioner for her role in unethical animal research.
Respondent denies ever placing any telephone calls to any of Petitioners. However, assuming arguendo the content of the Petitions to be true, not only was the content of the Petitions insufficient to issue a Temporary Order of Protection, but ordering the enforcement of Petitions violated Respondent's First Amendment right to freedom of speech.
Respondent's alleged conduct not only serves a legitimate purpose but is also constitutionally protected activity, and therefore any order issued pursuant to K.S.A. 60-31a01, et. seq., is barred. Respondent's purpose in protesting outside homes of Petitioners, distributing informational fliers regarding the nature of animal research occurring at KUMC, and directing Petitioners to his website was to both educate the public as to research tactics being used at KUMC and call for a change of research tactics being used at publically-funded KUMC.
While there may be debate as to whether Respondent's tactics in attempting to bring about policy change are effective, there is no debate that Respondent is within his First Amendment rights to advocate for his cause in the manner that he did. While a majority of people may find his tactics discomforting, his expressive conduct is still constitutionally protected. See Virginia v. Black, 538 U.S. 343, 358 (U.S. 2003). Respondent's actions were targeted and specific, and evidenced a strategy to voice his concerns regarding KUMC in a manner well within the law.
Petitioners are state employed medical researchers engaged in conducting experiments upon primates. They no doubt have experienced public outrage on other occasions, deserved or not, as a result of their research methods. The article in the Kansas City Star citing 160 USDA violations of the treatment of animals used for research initially brought such transgressions to the public's attention. A reasonable person in Petitioners position would expect to receive aggressive criticism from many animal rights activists, considering past demonstrations across the United States by animal rights advocates, and the fact that public funds contributed to the research.
Durham Petition cites one instance of harassment being a demonstration which was held by Respondent outside of Petitioner's home. However, Petitioner was not even home during the time that the demonstration was held, which took place outside her home and on a public sidewalk. Additionally, peaceful picketing and protesting is not considered harassment, but is expressive conduct constitutionally protected under the First Amendment. See Phelps-Roper v. Nixon, 545 F.3d 685, 689 (8th Cir. Mo. 2008); See also Olmer v. City of Lincoln, 192 F.3d 1176, 1179 (8th Cir. 1999).
Furthermore, Petitioner's presence did not, and would not, matter to Respondent. Respondent did not engage in the demonstration to harass or torment petitioner, but instead to voice his displeasure with the State, and the State's employees, regarding their treatment of animals, as is his constitutional right. Furthermore, the posting of video of the demonstration on Respondent's own personal website cannot be considered stalking of Petitioner; Respondent did not even notify Petitioner that such video was posted. It would vastly expand the definition of stalking if posting of one's personal video, containing no footage of an alleged stalking victim, on one's own personal website could be deemed to qualify as an act of stalking within the meaning of K.S.A. 60-31a01, et. seq.
Cheney Petition states that Respondent circulated fliers with Petitioner's picture and messages such as 'animal murderer,' and sent Petitioner an email directing Petitioner to Respondent's website. The Court has continuously recognized the right of activists to spread their message through distribution of informational documents. See Schenck v. Pro-Choice Network, 519 U.S. 357, 358 (U.S. 1997)('Leafletting and commenting on matters of public concern are classic forms of speech that lie at the heart of the First Amendment, and speech in public areas is at its most protected on public sidewalks, a prototypical example of a traditional public forum.'). Additionally, speech that may be offensive to one's audience is afforded protection under the First Amendment. See Hill v. Colorado, 530 U.S. 703, 716 (2000)('The right to free speech, of course, includes the right to attempt to persuade others to change their views, and may not be curtailed simply because the speaker's message may be offensive to his audience').
Factually speaking, Petitioner may be an 'animal murderer' in the sense that, through the course of his employment by the State, Petitioner does cause the death of countless animals. While Respondent's choice of words may not have been extremely tactful, Respondent is again within his First Amendment right to choose the manner in which he advocates for his cause. As our society has become ever more fast-paced and ever-changing, it sometimes takes an extreme and exaggerated statement to get the public's attention. Respondent was simply trying to advocate for his cause by drawing attention to KUMC's research policies by using an attention-grabbing statement. Respondent's First Amendment rights cannot be usurped simply because Petitioner takes offense to his message. Additionally, simply making Petitioner aware of Respondent's website is not an act of stalking, and Petitioner can exhibit free will in choosing not to view the website which Respondent suggested.
The allegations contained in Dhillon Petition simply cannot support an Order of Protection. Petitioner was sent two emails by Respondent. Petitioner had the choice of whether to even view those emails in the first place. Petitioner also cites the distribution of fliers at KUMC condemning the institutions research methods. However, Petitioner simply being aware of the fliers is once again unjustifiable to sustain an Order of Protection.
In Madsen v. Women's Health Ctr., 512 U.S. 753 (U.S. 1994), a Florida state court issued an injunction, applicable to antiabortion protesters, which in part restricted the use of 'images observable' to clinic patients. On appeal, the United States Supreme Court held that broad prohibition on all 'images observable' burdens more speech than necessary to achieve the purpose of limiting threats to clinic patients or their families, as all would be necessary to avoid seeing the images would be for the clinic to close its curtains. Id. at 73. Thus, the Court held that the 'images observable' restriction violates the First Amendment. Id.
Likewise, since Petitioner's only reported conduct is being made aware, and ultimately viewing, images she finds offensive, an Order of Protection in this case would operate much like an 'images observable' restriction, which violates the First Amendment. Petitioner had the option of whether to view the emails she received. Petitioner could simply delete the email, thus 'closing the curtain' on any allegedly offensive material. Such an act would sufficiently address the situation without unnecessarily burdening Respondent's First Amendment rights.
Additionally, Petitioners state that they fear for their safety. However, none of Petitioners have ever had physical contact with Respondent. Respondent has never physically threatened Petitioners, either in person, by computer message, or by phone message. Once again, Respondent denies ever making any telephone calls to Petitioners' home or place of employment.
Petitioners in this case are state employees attempting to use an order, which is meant to protect innocent people from dangerous and violent offenders, to stifle criticism of their state-endorsed animal research methods. Respondent's alleged conduct is protected under the First Amendment. Respondent was simply advocating for policy change in as lawful and peaceable way as he knew, and so as to draw attention to his cause. No doubt this is a delicate balance to strike. However, when there is doubt as to whether speech is protected under the First Amendment, the benefit of the doubt must be given to protecting speech rather than stifling it. See Citizens United v. FEC, 130 S. Ct. 876 (U.S. 2010). Here, benefit of the doubt must be given to protect Respondent's First Amendment rights, especially since an order under K.S.A. 60-31a01, et. seq., could have criminal consequences for Respondent.
WHEREFORE, for all the foregoing reasons, Respondent respectfully prays that the Court deny Petitioners Request for an Order of Protection against him, and for such other and further relief that the Court deems just and proper upon these premises.

A classical music event in Israel is expected to break the country's taboo on performing the music of Richard Wagner, the 19th century German composer and a well-known anti-Semite.
The Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported this week that the event, scheduled for June 18, will feature orchestral musicians performing selections from Wagner's "Der Ring des Nibelungen" and other operas.
The event will be an academic symposium at Tel Aviv University devoted to Wagner, conductor Arturo Toscanini and Theodor Herzl, the famed Zionist leader. The symposium, organized by the Israel Wagner Society, will feature a concert portion of 100 hired musicians, reported Haaretz.
Wagner's music has been unofficially banned in what is now Israel since 1938. Wagner held anti-Semitic views and his music eventually became a favorite of Adolf Hitler.
The June event in Tel Aviv won't be the first time that musicians have broken the Wagner taboo in Israel. In 2001, conductor Daniel Barenboim led a concert in Jerusalem that featured an encore performance of a selection from Wagner's "Tristan und Isolde."

40 Convicts Hold 5 Guards Hostage
Moundsville Daily Echo
March 20, 1973
Moundsville Daily Echo
1:30 p.m. - Norman Yost, administrative assistant to Governor Moore, arrived here at one o'clock, to begin negotiations with the three dozen hard-core convicts who are holding five guards hostage.
He went inside briefly with Acting Warden William O. Wallace for a briefing.
Then Yost and Wallace came outside, walked down the yard to the broken window thru which the convicts have been shoting out, and began talking. The convict inside who talked with them was Gene Jarvis, listed as one of the ri[n]gleaders. Yost asked them to send two men under safe-conduct to the office to negotiate. The reply was yes, in 30 minutes. It was apparent that the ringleaders would not be the ones to go and they would have to brief their emissaries.
At noon today, the penitentiary was a fortress, with some 175 officers gathered around the "new walls" south of the new lower entrance, where some 40 maximum-security prisoners are holding five guards hostage and threatening to kill them.
It began about eleven this morning, while guards had the maximum security prisoners out of their quarters for a bathing session. It was reported that Convict Davis, who has been in the news for various acts of violence, jmped a guard, got his keys, and the group of convicts was in control.
Maximum security men are temporarily being housed in the long cellblock south of the control center entrance, while the prison is being remodelled - eventually they will be in North Hall in a section with its own walled-off exercise yard.
They barricaded themselves inside this hall section, and convicts who did not want to take part in the disturbance stayed out in the yard east of the enclosed hall. City police later were seen taking two convicts to hospital and five to the county jail (one would presume to park them there for protection from other convicts.)
They sent out word that if either guns or tear gas were used on them, the guards would be killed. But up to noon, the guards had not been hurt.
Acting Warden William O. Wallace set up a "command post" in "Tower 7:, the little white sentry box in the front yard in front of the control center entrance, which affords a clear view of the entire front wall, and has a telephone thru which he could talk anywhere.
Soon, windows began breaking out all along the Jefferson avenue front. By noon, 15 of the 24 tall windows south of the entrance, had at least some panes broken out.
(These are the front windows of the long hall that has inside it, free-standing cell blocks 3 stories high, with narrow walkways on each story, attached to the cell blocks. There is perhaps ten feet of space between the front window-wall and the cell blocks.
Then voices began to bellow out thru the broken windows:
"When are you going to send in the newspaper people to talk to us?"
It was an unusual opportunity for convicts to talk directly to the public, not afforded in most prisons even when those other prisons are out of control. Citizens, men and woman [sic], got a load of the foulest talk there is. Apparently some of them must feel they are in the hard-core lockup for sex offenses, because some of the shouting said if women were sent in, there wouldn't be so many homosexualities.
One could see a man apparently standing on another man's shoulders (the window sills are that high off the main floor) waving a shiny knife perhaps a foot long. Some of his more printable shoutings were:
"How can I act like a man when they treat me like a dog?"
As he saw the Echo camera pointed toward him, he said:
"Don't take a picture of us, we're nice people. Take those pigs out front. Oink, oink."
"Nobody knows what I've gone thru for five years...I've been here five years and haven't had a decent meal yet." (The Echo reporter has eaten inside the walls several times, in the convicts' dining room, found the food good and wholesome.)
"If any of us gets hurt, the guards will have to go."
Then smoke began to appear, and the fire truck arrived. Mr. Wallace said it was apparently something in the basement under that section, and was not too bad, and would burn itself out. But the firemen did hook up lines to two hydrants.
The electric company was called, and disconnected the power feed to the walls - this apparently was to reduce possibility of damage to new installations. But the loss of power made it necessary to turn the "wheel" by hand, and the other gate interlocks were impossible to operate, which made it difficult to get in and out[.] But they were able to get out two injured convicts, one with a kinfe [sic] broken off inside him.
At noon today, matters stood with the 5 guards still hostage, unhurt, and the rioters demanding a conference with Wallace and Governor Moore's administrative assistant Norman Yost who has been in close touch with the prison's problems. Yost was hurrying here for that conference.
The convicts happened to time their outbreak to the moment that the state legislature is considering restoring capital punishment for in-prison killers, an offense that now cannot be punished if an inmate is already doing a life sentence for something else.
There was a suggestion it was triggered by the transferral here from Maryland of John Koton, who claims to be a witness to last year's in-walls murder of Guard William Quilliams. Inmate Bobby Gene Jarvis who is to be tried for that murder, was reported to have been the next man after Davis to get loose this morning, and to be the one who let some 17 prisoners out of cells.
In Charleston, Governor Arch A. Moore said he would not make any decision on whether to fly up here, till the outcome of his assistant Yost's visit is known.
This follows a smaller disturbance last week, in which the Echo was told several convicts were roughed up.

Pokemon X and Y Announcement Leads to Fake Pokemon
Are there any troll-type Pokemon? Because a lot of people just got trolled with this image.
Shortly after this week's announcement that Pokemon X and Y would be coming out, fans took to creating fan art, depicting the currently-known Pokemon in the next generation. We guess some artists are better than others, at least when it comes to the art of trolling.
According to Kotaku, the Pikachu-like image above circulated on Twitter, with claims that it was an evolved form of Pikachu. A second image would appear, naming this evolved form "Kaenchu", in which the word "kaen" means "flame" or "blaze" in Japanese.
The retweeting ran rampant in Japan, until it was pointed out by the Japanese site Nari Nari that the image originated from the 2ch bulletin board, who wanted to troll Twitter users. It seems that they succeeded, but it makes us a little sad that we won't have a thermal powered Pikachu when October comes. Oh well.
Let us know what you think about this example of masterful trolling in the comments below. And tell us whether or not you'd want Kaenchu to be real!

A Haven For Desert Plants
Ayer Lake is a man-made oasis to store water for irrigating the Arboretum's gardens. It is also home to waterfowl, waders, shorebirds and local wildlife. Two endangered species of desert fish, the Gila topminnow and desert pupfish, were introduced into the lake by Arizona Game and Fish Department.
The Arboretum protects a segment of the Arizona Uplands Sonoran Desert. In the last century, the north slopes of Picketpost Mountain were overgrazed by cattle and denuded by woodcutters. During the Arboretum's early years of operation, the area was fenced for research purposes and allowed to naturally re-vegetate.
For the casual visitor, a walk through the Arboretum is an orientation to the plants of the world's deserts and semi-arid regions. For the plant enthusiast and scientist, the Arboretum is a rare opportunity to observe and closely examine a myriad of arid-adapted plants.
A network of interconnecting trails wind through the Arboretum. Along these trails, thousands of water efficient plants from arid and semi-arid regions of North America, South America, the Near East, Africa, Central Asia and Australia arrest visitors' attention. Arid land plants may take on bizarre shapes and curious life styles that have evolved as methods of coping with dry habitats.
To walk the Arboretum's Sonoran Desert Upland Natural Area is to see a landscape radically different from our popular image of the Southwest. The Sonoran Desert supports an amazing and diverse melange of life. The surrounding desert landscapes are a mosaic of colors, shapes and textures. Here, the plant communities and riparian (riverside) areas are influenced by soil characteristics and composition, air temperature, available shade and moisture, and rock types.
In addition to cacti, there are long, spiny branched ocotillo, green-stemmed palo verde, thorny acacias, low growing mesquite, desert hackberry, and golden-flowered agaves. Congested stands of chollas contrast with the decided spacing of creosote bushes--a self-imposed method of water rationing.
The High Trail crosses a north-facing slope through native vegetation of the Arizona Upland subdivision of the Sonoran Desert. From this vantage point, one looks down on a panoramic view of Queen Creek and the canyon area. The Main Trail , dwarfed by sheer canyon walls, follows Queen Creek and emerges from the reparian or stream community to a shaded, fragrant area of plants from other arid lands. The Arboretum's dense grove of broadleaf trees, conifers and tropical-looking palms create a striking contrast to the surrounding desert scrublands. Old World pistachio, olive, common myrtle, pomegranate, bamboo-like Arundo, and date palms, below, line the pathway.
Many of these water saving shrubs and trees, such as the Canary Island Palm add shade, shelter and privacy as well as color to Southwestern gardens and yards. They also have important economic potential for many arid environments. Not only do the plants provide protective shade, they are also efficient windbreaks, soil stabilizers, and renewable sources of timber, oils, resins, and edible fruits and nuts. Towering blossoms of the Arizona mountain agave foretell its demise. After many years of growth and food storage, an agave, or century plant, sends up a single stout stem bearing clusters of flowers. A year after it blooms, the plant dies.Back to Top of Page
Deserts: A Parched World
Desert. The word conjures up images of dry, barren wastelands of shifting sand dunes and wind-sculptured rocks. Although severely restricted by shortages of water, most deserts are not deserted. Life is there--sometimes visible, sometimes hidden. Many species of plants and animals have adapted to the precarious conditions of an arid and often shadeless desert. In terms of botanic variety, the earth's arid regions may be second only to those of the tropics.
In the extreme conditions of arid environments, plants compete for available water rather than light. Plants that can grow in deserts often do not look or act like ordinary plants. To survive in the desert, a plant must be able to live with very little water and to wait for it--months or years, if need be. The South African Lithops mimic pebbles in color and pattern. This disguise helps to conceal the plants from moisture-seeking animals.
Moisture-efficient plants have evolved special means or growth habits that enable them to resist water loss and to survive long periods of drought. The South African stapelia's squat, starfish-shaped flower looks more like a marine animal. Some species give off an odor of rotting meat that attracts flies to lay eggs in them.
Xerophytes (dry habitat plants) from different botanical families have developed similar solutions to the challenges of desert life around the world. New World cacti and yuccas, South African aloes, and North African and Asian euphorbias have thick spongy leaves or stems for absorbing and holding large quantities of water.
Not all deserts are hot year round. In some arid regions, winter can be severe and icy cold. Plants in these cold deserts must endure low temperatures as well as scarcity of water. Many of the imported arid land plants growing at the Arboretum are adapted to this part of the Upland Sonoran Desert. Cold-sensitive species of cacti, euphorbias and other succulents are given additional protection in the display greenhouses located in the Smith Interpretive Center.
Desert vegetation forms the foundation of a complex yet fragile interdependent living system. This web of life is precariously balanced on the need to conserve and to efficiently use available moisture. Water governs the growth of plants and thus the welfare of the animals and people in the world's arid regions.Back to Top of Page
Desert Plants and Man
The lives of desert-dwelling people worldwide are closely linked with their region's vegetation. Ripened fruit of the saguaro is used in the rainmaking ceremonies of Arizona's Tohono O'odham people. The fleshy fruit is also a staple food in the diet of many desert animals. The agave is another example of a plant that has long been associated with the economy and culture of southwestern indigenous people and Mexicans. They used the agave's leaf fiber to make rope, baskets, mats, thatching and coarse cloth. Young flower stalks and fruit were eaten, and the heart of the plant was roasted as a staple food. The plant's sweet sap was fermented into intoxicating beverages.
Today, we are rediscovering the value of familiar dryland plants and are exploring new ways to capitalize on their economic and agricultural resources for the world's arid regions.
The clear wax of the candelilla is used commercially in food products. The guayule's latex is a source of natural rubber. Creams, powders, lotions and medicinal products are made from the juice of Old World Aloes.
The native jojoba's bean-like seeds yield a liquid wax used in manufacturing plastics, floor wax, automobile finishes, cosmetics and machine lubricants. It has proved to be an effective substitute for the oil of the endangered sperm whale.

What Does the HIV Epidemic Look Like in Your U.S. County?
Emory University Relaunches AIDSVu, a Web-Based Interactive Map That Shows HIV Data Along With Local Resources
July 9, 2013
Have you checked out the new AIDSVu? Presented by the Rollins School of Public Health at Emory University (home to Kimberley Hagen, who taught the very first online course on AIDS), AIDSVu is an interactive, online map that illuminates HIV prevalence rates throughout the U.S. Though AIDSVu has been functional since 2011, only certain areas of the country -- like New York City or Washington, D.C. -- had zip code-level analysis available. On June 27, 2013, National HIV Testing Day, AIDSVu unveiled a new map with more complete data on its website.
How do you think it's best to use AIDSVu? Can AIDSVu help nonprofits and community-based organizations with their local and national work? Did your exploration of the map show you any surprises? Share your thoughts in the comments section of this article.

The Morris Arboretum and Woodmere Art Museum, two of Chestnut Hill's major cultural institutions, are collaborating for the outdoor exhibition, "Take a Seat! Adirondack Chairs Re-Interpreted," which will open May 31 and continue through Labor Day.
Artists have been invited to re-interpret the Adirondack chair, whether to paint it, redecorate it, redesign it, re-carve it, reassemble it or just do something fabulous with one of America's great outdoor classics. Seventy works of art, in chair form, will be showcased throughout the garden at Morris Arboretum and at Woodmere Art Museum.
The 37 artists chosen for the Morris Arboretum/Woodmere "Take a Seat!" exhibition offer an impressive variety of disciplines and talent:
•Arona Reiner, an artist based in Israel, shows her work locally at the Carol Schwartz Gallery in Chestnut Hill; she was in Philadelphia in March for a book signing and created her chairs while in town.
•After successful careers designing interiors, fabrics and wall coverings, Murrie Gayman began creating huge murals for public spaces utilizing scraps of antique barn wood. His wood working talents played a role in the creation of his Adirondack chairs.
•Sister Margie Thompson is an Associate Professor of Art and the Coordinator of the Arts Programs at Chestnut Hill College. Her painting style uses heightened color and brushstrokes to convey a sense of energy and sacred presence in the landscape.
•Philadelphia-based artist Estelle Carraz-Bernabei is an abstract painter whose mixed-media works focus on earth and sky elements.
•Recognized by the Mural Arts Program, street artist Juan Dimida's signature work has a graphic, cartoon-inspired look that is likely to make viewers smile.
•Sean Martorana is an artist to watch who founded THE STUDIO and has his own line of paintings, designs, prints and clothing/accessories.
•David Robinson is an environmental artist with installations across the U.S. who illustrates a unique and skilled craftsmanship.
The Adirondack chairs will be on exhibit at Morris Arboretum and Woodmere Art Museum from May 31 through Sept. 3. A grand opening will take place at both institutions on May 31 from 4 to 8 p.m. This exhibit is made possible in part by Morris Arboretum's Madeleine K. Butcher Fine Arts Endowment and Chestnut Hill Hospital.
The Morris Arboretum of the University of Pennsylvania is located at 100 East Northwestern Ave. The 92-acre horticulture display garden features a spectacular collection of mature trees in a beautiful and colorful landscape. The Arboretum includes numerous picturesque spots such as a formal rose garden, historic water features, a swan pond and the only remaining freestanding fernery in North America.
For more information, visit www.morrisarboretum.org.
Housed in a 19th-century stone Victorian mansion on six acres, Woodmere Art Museum first opened its doors to the public in 1940. The building, grounds and the nucleus of the permanent collection are the benefactions of Charles Knox Smith (1845 – 1916), who wished "to awaken the spirit of, the appreciation of, and the knowledge of art … in the City of Philadelphia and surrounding territory." Today, the permanent collection consists of more than 3,000 works of art, celebrating the art and artists of Philadelphia.
Woodmere's core collection includes important paintings by renowned artists such as Edward Redfield, Daniel Garber, Walter E. Schofield, Benjamin West, Frederic Edwin Church, Violet Oakley, Arthur B. Carles and many more. Woodmere's nine galleries and salons, including a grand rotunda and the Helen Millard Children's Gallery, provide space for exhibitions and programs. In the George D. Widener Studio, a converted carriage house, a year-round roster of classes provides art training for children and adults.

Biz-stay needed a new web page design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 67 designs submitted by 25 freelance designers.
Biz-stay Extended Stay Lodging Directory
http://www.biz-stay.com assists travelers in locating extended stay lodging worldwide. We cover extended-stay hotels, corporate housing, serviced apartments, apartment hotels, interim housing, furnished flat rentals, etc. We are not a travel agency - our directory makes it easy to contact advertised lodging options directly or to visit their websites.
The homepage serves 3 purposes:
1) Communicates our service/quality to travelers, and facilitates navigation to the location-specific directory pages
2) Communicates our service/quality to potential advertisers, and facilitates navigation to the advertising info pages
3) Communicates our service to search engines by providing sufficient keyword-rich text (HTML)
Same as these sites:
Note: about 40% of audience are NOT business travelers
Extended-stay serves a wide range of budgets, from ultra low-cost to luxury.
Professional look
900 - 950 pixels fixed width, centered
Navigation menu on left side. (This will be carried through on the sub pages.) Omit the "Banner Advertising" option.
More white space than current design
The map is essential to tell users that our directory is global, and to assist with navigation. Copy the current regional borders exactly, and supply image map coordinates. For example Bangladesh is in "Southwest Asia", not "East Asia".
Note: It's OK to use the current map, perhaps with different colors, background, etc.
Use current logo (resized is OK)
Provide space for one 125x300 banner (currently in lower left)
Extended-stay serves a wide range of budgets, from ultra low-cost to luxury. It is important to appeal to all these groups, perhaps by visually highlighting the upper end quality, while also mentioning the affordability (in HTML).

First of all I want to say that I am a reader of Wayne County News and have been for some time. I will tell you a little of my life and a few places I have been, but I don't know that you could consider me as a citizen of Wayne county, but I will tell you how I came to be there and about how long I stayed.
First of all I was born in Johnson county, Kentucky, September 4, 1883, on the waters of Toms Creek, five miles north of Paintsville, Kentucky, county seat of Johnson county and my present home. I was reared by an good old-fashioned farmer and a hard working man who always taught us to be good boys. My father raised nine boys. There names are as follows: Fred C., Alonzo F., Verner, Ernest, Coon, Clyde, Frew S., Burns C., and Byran. They all lived to be grown men except Coon. My mother died when I was about six or seven years old. This left my Father in bad shape and with all of us boys on his hands he was not able to hire some woman to keep house, so he made girls out of us boys.
The boys were all at home when mother died, but after mother's death the older boys began to scatter off. Each boy took his turn at cooking. Bye (sic) and bye, it came my turn to cook and keep house, and I want to say it has come in pretty handy sometimes since I have been married to know how to cook and keep house. I have washed dishes when I was small. I had to stand in a chair to be tall enough to reach the table and of course this kind of life did not appeal to boys much so, bye and bye, the boys began to leave. Two of my older brothers, Verner and Ernest, wandered off into Wayne county, West Virginia. Verner stayed with Lucian Ferguson and worked on a farm. Ernest stayed with Dr. G. R. Burgess, who at that time lived just above Lucian's on the left fork of Twelve Pole about a mile above Wayne. They stayed there several years and would come home often, and I would hear them talk how they liked to stay out there and how good they were to them. It created a desire in me to want to go and see the place.
The time passed on till I was about fifteen. I went to Catlettsburg to spend the Fourth of July. I fell into bad company, got drunk and was locked up for being drunk. To my shame I am sorry to tell you, but I am trying to tell you how I came to get into Wayne county. After I got out of jail next day, I was ashamed to go back home, and I knew my father would hear about it, so I decided to go up to Thacker, W. Va., and work there in the mines. I worked there a while and the company was so much rougher than what I was used to that I did not like it, so I thought of the good place Ernest had told me about, and I decided to go down and see Wayne county. I crawled on a freight train on Saturday night and Sunday morning I landed in Wayne all black and dirty so I got off at the end of the Spunky bridge and went to the store at the end of the bridge and got a cake of Grand Pa's soap, went down to the creek and took a good wash. . . .
[I] came up the bank and inquired about Dr. G. R. Burgess. Some one was kind enough to tell me where he lived and told me that Basil and all the girls were over in town. I waited at the bridge until they came along. I had seen Basil before. He had been home with Ernest on a visit. But this was the first time that I had ever seen Charlie, oldest daughter of Dr. Burgess. She was in a buggy with John Meek, who afterwards became her husband. I got in the buggy with Basil and went home with him. Next morning, Dr. Burgess gave me a job of feeding the cattle and horses. Dr. always kept several head of horses, and among them was one he called Black Beauty and a beauty she was too.
I stayed about three years with them and never was treated nicer by anyone in my life than I was by Dr. Burgess' family. It always seemed to be that Mrs. Burgess treated me just like she did her own son, Basil. It may have been because she knew I had no mother, but she was a mother to me and Dr., a father. When the East Lynn railroad started, I [was] getting about 50 cents a day so I began working on the bridge force at $1.00 a day and still boarded with Dr. Burgess. I helped build all the bridges on the East Lynn road.
I left Wayne about 1902 and came home. About that time, the C. & O. R. R. had started the work to extend the road from White House to Elkhorn City, Kentucky. I worked at that one year. On November 16, 1904, I joined the army at Huntington and was sent to Fort Slocum, N. Y., [where I] was assigned to the 80th Co., Coast Artly, Fort Schuyler, N. Y. I stayed there two years and five months. March 1907 I was transferred to Key West, Florida, where I served seven months and was discharged. I sent back to New York City and got a job from the Interbourgh Rapid Transit Co., on a subway train as a guard. I worked there two years and decided to go back home. Two of my younger brothers had married and [were] living at the old home. I dug coal that winter for pocket change.
A revival meeting was in progress on the creek where I lived. That man of God preached with such power that it reached my heart, and I was truly saved from all my sins. That was January 10, 1910. I was changed right about, and I began to settle down. I started to work March 1910 for Webb & Preston Department Store in Paintsville for $30.00 a month. I worked three years for this firm. During this time, I was married to Ollie Webb and shortly after this I started business for myself.
I had a general store for about two years, then Ed Vanhoose, my cousin, and myself organized the Vanhoose Wholesale Grocery, Co. at Paintsville. We worked at this three years then my brother and I went into the lumber business. I have in the F. S. Vanhoose Lumber Co. over $27,000 and am manager and president of the company. I also own as good a house and lot as there is in Paintsville.
I want to give God the praise for what I have done, for I have made this all since I gave my heart to Him. I was ordained to preach in the Freewill Baptist church about three years ago. I am still in the fight against sin in every form.
I was married April 18, 1911, and we have had three children: Stewart, who died when he was two years old; Helen Elizabeth, who is now 10; and Howard is 7.
With all good wishes to you everyone.
I am down here on the Mexican border serving a 3 year term with the United States Cavalry. I have eight more months to serve before I will return to Wayne county. The Cavalry sure is a fine place for a young man. It is very interesting to ride a horse over the Texas ranges and see the different kinds of scenery.
I am a reader of Wayne County News and find it very helpful while being away from all my relatives.
As you asked for a letter from all former Wayne county folks, I will try and give you a few sketches of my past. It has been eight years since I left Wayne county, and I have rambled a good bit during this time. I settled in Russell, Kentucky, in 1917 and took a job with the C. & O. railroad as a brakeman, and a little later I went to the U. S. army. I didn't stay long on this side until I sailed for England and from there to France. I was over there until July 1919, when I came back to the U. S. and was discharged from the army.
I visited my home folks in Wayne county and had just been home nine days when my mother died. I came back to Russell and took up my position with the C. & O. railroad. January 25, 1921, I was promoted to conductor. About one year later I married a Wayne county girl.
This is a good town to live in, lots of employment. It isn't a very large town, but it is a busy place. The C. & O. railroad has the largest train yards here of any one road in the U. S. A. Their payroll every two weeks amounts to one-half million dollars. Property is very high here.
I own my own home and have prospered ever since I have been here. I have one three-year-old daughter. I love to visit the Wayne county people and find some of the best people there that I have ever found anywhere. I attended the Wayne county fair and met lots of friends and relatives. I still own a farm in Wayne county but don't have any idea of every coming back there to live. I always think of my old home county and will always give it the praise of a good place. I would like to hear more of the Wayne county folks.

Although the latest iteration of its development platform and tools were wrapped up and made available to developers in the first half of 2010, Microsoft only now released the SDK for the new help system that ships with the successor of Visual Studio 2010. Version 1.0 of the Help Viewer Software Development Kit went live on the Microsoft Download Center the past week and is now available free of charge. The SDK is designed to enable developers to take advantage of Help Viewer 1.0 interfaces, according to the software giant.
"Visual Studio 2010 shipped with a new help system - Help Viewer 1.0. Help Viewer 1.0 is built on common standards such as XHTML and .zip file format. Developers can leverage the ms-xhelp:// protocol documented in this SDK to implement their own Help experiences and Help viewers using the Help Viewer 1.0 runtime," Microsoft stated.
Devs will need Windows XP SP3 or later in order to use Help Viewer 1.0 SDK. At the same time, they will of course need to be running the latest version of Visual Studio. "Any of the Visual Studio 2010 family of products, including the Visual Studio Express products. This requirement is for the Help Viewer 1.0 runtime, which only ships with those products," Microsoft informed.
Despite coming packaged as an EXE file, HelpViewerSDK is not actually set up to install locally. Instead, the package only allows developers to have easy access to the resources contained by the SDK. "This download is a self-extracting .exe, which will simply install some documentation in the form of HTML files, and some code samples. No executable code is included," the company added.
With the advent of Visual Studio 2010, Microsoft has also overhauled Help Viewer. In this regard, the Redmond company's work was focused on allowing developers to take advantage of a new model for authoring and viewing help content, which would simplify their efforts.
"The system has been completely redesigned and has no dependencies on previous help systems," Microsoft explained, enumerating some of the new additions to the system:
"•View Microsoft Help Viewer offline content from your preferred Web browser.
•Manage offline content and help settings with the Help Library Manager application.
•Download the latest documentation from Microsoft on demand.
•Offline content is stored in standard zip format files (with the MSHC file extension).
•Navigate through content using a simplified Table of Contents (TOC) similar to the MSDN Online lightweight TOC.
•Improved full text search algorithm.
•Content authors use standard <meta /> tag attribution. This replaces the Help 2 XML data island."

Bargain shoppers finally stepped in after a long week of profit-taking pressures on Wall Street. Major equity indexes soared into green territory as investors rejoiced over renewed optimism that a deal in Congress would be reached before the much-feared "fiscal cliff". Encouraging economic data also found its way into the headlines as existing home sales blew past estimates; October sales data came in at 4.79 million, jumping right past the 4.70 million estimate, as well as last month's reading of 4.69 million [see 5 ETF Strategies To Reign In Risk].
Global Market Overview: Bargain Shopping Euphoria Sparks Rally
After taking a nasty beating last week, the tech sector bounced back with full force today, and the Nasdaq ETF (QQQ, A-) led the way higher with a sizable 2.38% gain. As risk appetites surged, the S&P 500 ETF (SPY, A) charged ahead of the Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF (DIA, B). Overseas, markets also enjoyed a very positive start to the trading week [Download 101 ETF Lessons Every Financial Advisor Should Learn].
Bond ETF Roundup
Considering the massive rally on the equity front, bonds performed quite well across the board. Prevailing "risk on" sentiment carried junk bonds to the top of the list in terms of performance, while not surprisingly, "safe haven" U.S. Treasuries sank into red territory.
Commodity ETF Roundup
A weakening U.S. dollar paved the way higher for commodity prices across the board, with natural gas being the only loser on the day. Gold futures prices popped and managed to settled just above $1,730 an ounce, while crude oil finished the session just shy of the $90 a barrel mark.
ETF Chart Of The Day #1: XHB
The State Street SPDR Homebuilders ETF (XHB, A+) was one of the best performers, gaining a solid 2.01% on the day. Homebuilder stocks rallied into green territory as positive housing data served as a fundamental catalyst on the day. In addition to better-than-expected existing home sales, investors also cheered on an improving home builders' index; this figure came in at 46, marking a noteworthy improvement in builders' sentiment after coming in at 41 last month [see also Why Peter Schiff Is Embracing The Fiscal Cliff].
Click to Enlarge
ETF Chart Of The Day #2: VXX
The Barclays iPath S&P 500 VIX Short-Term Futures ETN (VXX, B+) was one of the worst performers amid the broad rally on Wall Street, shedding a dismal 8.59% on the day. Uncertainty seemingly evaporated from the stock market as growing optimism over the "fiscal cliff" resolution restored confidence. The Volatility Index (VIX) opened below the 16 mark and settled just above the 15 level as the closing bell rang [see also Low Volatility ETFdb Portfolio].

ETF Fun Fact Of The Day
The best performing themed strategy year-to-date is our 2012 ETFdb Portfolio; this strategy is up an impressive 15.22%.

EDGAR Filer Help Sheet
Filing Preparation Issues
ASCII Conversion
After saving your document in ASCII format, do not re-save it in your word processor (the usual procedure when exiting a document in most programs). Saving the document a second time will usually result in the document's being saved back to its original word processing format, making it unusable as an EDGAR filing.
Submitters are encouraged to verify that their word processing software package creates accurate ASCII output by using the EDGARLink® error check option (after assembling a filing) or by submitting a test filing requesting an electronic return copy.
Tags in the Filing
Table tags indicate to the EDGAR system that the material enclosed by the tags may be up to 132 characters wide for ASCII files; their use is optional when the material is 80 characters wide or less.
Creating a Submission
Filers should be as careful and explicit as possible in choosing EDGAR form types for their submissions especially for registration statements. Special attention should also be paid to making amendments with the "/A" designation. See Volume II, Part 3 of the Manual for a list of form types and EDGAR submission equivalents. If you have questions, consult the appropriate Division EDGAR contacts.
Segments and Modules
If a filer wishes to use the Module or Segment feature of the EDGAR system, the owner of the login CIK (either the filer or the filing agent) must be an E-mail subscriber. For co-registrants, the CIK of the registrant that had the electronic mail account would be used as the login CIK for the actual filing if modules or segments were to be used.
Segments are good for one live filing, but if that filing is suspended, each segment has another 6 business days to be used again. If the segment was not actually used in a filing (reference error), its expiration date is not reset.
N-SAR Filings
After preparing your N-SAR filing and using EDGARLink to assemble the answer file, run the EDGARLink error checking routine to uncover possible suspension errors. Although some errors, such as CIK/CCC mismatch, can be detected only by EDGAR itself, others, such as failure to use the N-SAR error check, would be detected by EDGARLink.
Fee Payment Methods
When filing fees are required for a specific form type, they must be paid in accordance with the provisions of the Lockbox Rule (Rule 3a of the Commission's Rules of Practice) as effective April 26, 1993.
Each Filer should use its CIK number as its account number to provide for electronic transfer of funds. The CIK number must be supplied with the payment to permit proper assignment of funds.
Expected fee payment methods for electronic filings are listed in the table below. Domestic registrants must pay fees via the lockbox, either by check or wire transfer.
Hours of EDGAR Operation and Delivery Addresses
The hours of operation for submitting filings by direct transmission to the EDGAR system are 6:00 a.m.-10:00 p.m. weekdays, excluding Federal holidays. The EDGAR system is not in operation on weekends.
NOTE: Actual paper filings should be submitted to the SEC Headquarters address, not to the Operations Center:
SEC Headquarters
Staff Assistance Available on Using EDGAR System
Staff in the Branches of Filer Support and Filer Technical Support are available to assist filers each business day from 9:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Eastern Time. The Branches of Filer Support and Filer Technical Support may be reached at (202) 551-8900. The Branches of Filer Support and Filer Technical Support will help filers with most problems having to do with the EDGAR system, such as understanding procedures, communications, correcting suspended filings, and obtaining access to EDGAR.
For more information about the EDGAR rules, see the outline, "Electronic Filing and the EDGAR System: A Regulatory Overview," which is on the Commission's website under the EDGAR News link in the EDGAR Database section.
Other Filer Support Issues
Receipt of the accession number assigned by the EDGAR system does not mean that your submission has been accepted or even that your transmission to the SEC has been successfully completed. It only means that the connection has been established and the filing transmission has begun.
The acceptance date is not the same as the official filing date. If a filing is submitted after 5:30 Eastern Time, it will not be deemed filed with the SEC until the following business day (except for the "T+3" filings, made pursuant to Rule 462(b) and Section 16 filings, which will receive the date of the actual filing). If you have any questions about your filing's acceptance date, consult the electronic acceptance message; these messages state the official filing date.
