Up your odds for Wile E. Coyote
By Babe Winkelman

08, 2014]
I love the old "Road Runner" cartoons with Wile
E. Coyote. He was a smart old dog, capable of concocting elaborate
schemes, traps and contraptions to try to catch his nemesis —
the speedy but patient Road Runner.
desire to eat made him make mistakes. Painful ones. But never fatal,
since survival skills are pretty amazing in cartoon land.
As predators like Wile E. Coyote ourselves, we can learn
something from that lovable canine. We can learn that hunger makes
our prey vulnerable. The yearning for food creates distractions and
temptations that we can use to our advantage when harvesting game.
Since we're on the subject of coyotes, let's take a look at some
tips and tactics that can put more fur in the skinning shack. And
seriously ... fun cartoon characters aside, harvesting these
predators is a necessity for population control and a balanced
ecosystem that gives small game, upland birds, waterfowl and even
hoofed animals a fighting chance against the voracious 'yote.
Generally speaking ...
With all the following approaches to coyote hunting, visual and
olfactory concealment is always critical. Wear camouflage that's
suited for the environment and season in which you're hunting. And
conceal your human odor just as you would do when hunting
whitetails. That means washing your hunting clothes in
scent-eliminating detergent and spraying everything down (yourself
and gear) with Scent Killer. With scent control as part of your
coyote hunting routine, you'll collect a lot more animals.
Calling 101
First and foremost, call where there are coyotes. Scout, and find
areas with plentiful tracks and scat. Ask around, knock on
landowners' doors, and locate good areas with a lot of animals.
Then, focus your calling efforts on areas in or around good sources
of cover. Sloughs, river bottoms, brushy draws, tree lines and other
"obvious" cover are ideal.
When you set up, choose a good vantage point with cover behind
you to break up your outline and with the sun behind your back or
quartering over your shoulder. The wind should be crossing, so you
can cover upwind dogs and spot those that have circled around to get
a downwind sniff of things.
Call from each stand site for 15-30 minutes, with a few minutes
between calling intervals. The rabbit-in-distress call is your best
friend. A mouse squeaker is great for up-close encounters, and a
coyote call (for howls, whelps, etc.) is a keen tool of the trade
I can't teach you how to call here, but if you've never done it,
I recommend one of many how-to DVDs on the market —
or an electronic caller that makes the sounds for you.

Baiting basics
If you put meat out in coyote country (road-killed deer, animal
scraps, etc.), they will eat it. No doubt. The key is to be on the
spot when they come to chow down. And nobody is interested in
sitting for hours or days waiting for that moment. So if you're
going to bait, put your morsels in a spot that you can check easily
from a long distance (using your Nikon binos). Also make it a
location that allows you to quietly and easily sneak into an ambush
position for a clean shot. Gravel pits and valleys make ideal
baiting sites. It takes a bit of homework and thought to determine
the ideal layout, but if you take the time, you will get some great
shots at coyotes.
Hunting at night
Coyotes are extremely nocturnal animals. So if you're looking for
a thrilling adventure, try calling them after the sun goes down. A
perfect scenario is a cold, calm evening between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m.
with snow on the ground and a bright moon overhead. Under these
conditions, sometimes you can shoot coyotes without introducing any
artificial light. But always come equipped with a spotlight, your
rabbit and howler calls, and the right firearm for the job. Use
fast, flat-shooting bullets for mid- to long-range and a 10 or
12-gauge shotgun with BBs if your shots are going to be inside of 40
Whenever you're hunting coyotes in one of these various ways,
always remember one thing: Get inside the coyote's head and
understand that you are tempting him with food, and he's responding
because he thinks he's going to eat. Hunger is the motivation that
will allow a coyote to let down his guard — and Wile E. Coyote's
mistake will be your victory. Just ask the Road Runner …
Good hunting.

The Gibson family in Cornwall have maintained a tradition for over a hundred years that whenever a ship is wrecked off the coast, one of them is there to document it.
The family tradition—documenting shipwrecks, obsessively and artistically—started with John, a fisherman-turned-professional-photographer, who learned about the new technology in Penzance in 1860. Gibson trained his two sons, Alexander and Herbert, as apprentice photographers. The Gibsons, armed with their cameras, soon made a habit of traipsing out to every accident in the area as it occurred, capturing haunting scenes in the process.
To get news of the wrecks, and share the results of their work, the family took advantage of another new technology: the telegraph. The sea surrounding their home in the Isles of Scilly was treacherous, and mariners made headlines when they sunk their ships after encountering storms or Cornwall's notorious cliffs. The Gibsons speedily dispatched both themselves and their images with the help of newly installed telegraph wires.

Neil Gaiman gave a wonderful lecture on behalf of the British Reading Agency last October, arguing for the central importance of reading and libraries to our society:
Another way to destroy a child's love of reading, of course, is to make sure there are no books of any kind around. And to give them nowhere to read those books. I was lucky. I had an excellent local library growing up. I had the kind of parents who could be persuaded to drop me off in the library on their way to work in summer holidays, and the kind of librarians who did not mind a small, unaccompanied boy heading back into the children's library every morning and working his way through the card catalogue, looking for books with ghosts or magic or rockets in them, looking for vampires or detectives or witches or wonders. And when I had finished reading the children's' library I began on the adult books.
They were good librarians. They liked books and they liked the books being read. They taught me how to order books from other libraries on inter-library loans. They had no snobbery about anything I read. They just seemed to like that there was this wide-eyed little boy who loved to read, and would talk to me about the books I was reading, they would find me other books in a series, they would help. They treated me as another reader – nothing less or more – which meant they treated me with respect. I was not used to being treated with respect as an eight-year-old.
But libraries are about freedom. Freedom to read, freedom of ideas, freedom of communication. They are about education (which is not a process that finishes the day we leave school or university), about entertainment, about making safe spaces, and about access to information.
I worry that here in the 21st century people misunderstand what libraries are and the purpose of them. If you perceive a library as a shelf of books, it may seem antiquated or outdated in a world in which most, but not all, books in print exist digitally. But that is to miss the point fundamentally.
The entire lecture is well worth a read.

Lausanne, Switzerland, December 27, 2012 - As part of an end-of-year review series, the FIVB takes a look back at the success of beach volleyball at the London Olympic Games.
Even for the uninitiated it was clear that beach volleyball had stamped its mark at the 2012 Olympic Games.
The sport made headline news around the world and the top 10 of the best Olympic moments on the IOC website for all the right reasons: the quality of the players, the drama and surprise of the competition and the festive ambiance at the Horse Guards Parade. Not surprisingly nearly all the competitions were sold out and TV coverage of the beach volleyball matches had high ratings all through the Games.
USA's Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh took their third straight Olympic gold victory against compatriots Jen Kessy and April Ross showing us exactly why they are the undisputed queens of beach volleyball. It was an all-American final, which saw world champions and number 1 seeds Brazilians Larissa França and Juliana Felisberta having to settle for bronze after their defeat by Kessy/Ross.
Brazil's top-seeded men's pair, Emmanuel Rego and Alison Cerutti also failed to win gold after being beaten in the final by Julius Brink and Jonas Reckermann. Brink/Reckermann became the first German pair to win gold in any volleyball event and the first Europeans of either gender to win beach volleyball gold. Bronze medallist Martins Plavins and Janis Smedins won Latvia's first medal at the 2012 Olympics.
As the dust begins to settle, the question that is no doubt on everyone's mind is, can the Games in Rio in 2016 top the action in London?
It's true that the landscape for beach volleyball, especially in the women's competition, will definitely be changed following Misty May-Treanor's and Larissa França's retirement this year. Although their partners Kerri Walsh and Juliana Felisberta will continue their careers, there is now some room for other rising stars to take centre stage.
Moreover with the current qualifying process, smaller nations now have the possibility to participate more actively at the Olympics. And we've already seen some burgeoning talent in the likes of Natacha Rigobert and her partner Elodie Li Yuk of Mauritius. The duo qualified for their first Olympic beach volleyball tournament through the Beach Volleyball Continental Cup.
A total of 142 countries from around the world took part in the qualification process for the Olympic Games in 2012, with the debut of the Continental Cup and the World Cup Olympic Qualification Tournament. Alongside Rigobert/Li Yuk from Mauritius, Argentina were also represented in the women's tournament for the first time in the shape of Maria Virginia Zonta and Ana Gallay thanks to the Continental Cup.
On the men's side Igor Hernandez and Jesus Villafane also made history by becoming the first Venezuelan team to qualify for an Olympic Games. Steven Grotowski and John Garcia-Thompson were Britain's first men's team to contest the event since its debut at the 1996 Atlanta games.
If the surprising gold and bronze medal success of Germany's Brink/Reckermann and Latvia's Plavins/Smedins is anything to go by, Rio 2016 will no doubt provide a platform for other beach volleyball pairs to show their mettle.
London 2012 set out to "Inspire a Generation" and it won many plaudits from the critics for creating a fun, festive atmosphere at the beach volleyball matches. If Britain, a country without a beach volleyball tradition could draw such spectacular crowds, the future bodes well for volleyball hungry Brazil.

- Instead of visiting the famous Prague Castle, make plans to visit Vysehrad Castle, sitting on the top of a hill. It's been left to fall into ruin and all you can see the ruins of a former fortification of the castle. Oh and the stunning views of the city!
- The Botanical Gardens are a lovely place to escape the touristy spots. In winter, you can warm up in the green house, while in the summer you can hide from the sun under the trees.
- Visit a vineyard. Within the city, you can find Vinični Altan, which is easily reached by tram. Taste the locally produced wine.
- If you feel like to need to work out a bit – after all that good food and wine – head to Stromovka Park. Rent a pair of rollerblades or just take a long walk on the alleys.
- Visit the Medieval town of Cesky Krumlov. It is located on the Vltava River and is well known for the 13th century castle.
Why you should add Prague to your RTW travel listOf course Prague wouldn't be complete without seeing some of the sites that makes it famous. Here are some ideas on what to do if you've never been there or plan on staying for a while.
- Visit Prague Castle, the biggest ancient castle in the world.
- Walk on Charles Bridge. For the best views of the Castle, plan your visit at sunset (or sunrise, if you can wake up early).
- Visit the Old Town, with its Astronomical Clock, Gothic Týn Church and other historical buildings.
- If you plan to be in Prague for the Christmas Market, don't leave without souvenirs. You can find anything , from hand made jewelry to interesting tree ornaments. And let's not forget the food and the mulled wine.
- Take a walk in the Lesser Town (Malá strana). It is known for the beautiful streets and the Venetian-like canal with water wheel. The Lesser Town is located across the Vltava River from the city centre, leading to the castle.
- Eat in a local pub. Don't expect the bartenders to speak English – so bring a phrasebook – but do enjoy the food and beer.
Why you should not add Prague to your RTW travel list
- Prague was very cheap, but over the years that has changed. Still, it's not as expensive as London, Paris or Rome, but it's not very cheap either.
- The low season only brings cheaper room rates but , otherwise, the city is busy with tourists year-round. The Christmas Market is very popular so December is packed with shoppers; and the sites are filled with tourists during the entire summer.
- If you want to visit other Central-European countries while you are in Prague, your best bet is to take the train (and most likely go via Budapest). Don't expect any low-cost flights within the area.
- Going off the beaten path is amazing, but you need some knowledge of the local language. A phrasebook is a good start, always.

In a recent post, I presented a list of the 'core asset classes' that investors need in order to build portfolios that fully exploit available diversification opportunities. That article focused on portfolios designed for total return potential, the combined return from price appreciation and income generated by the assets in the portfolio. For investors focusing on building income-generating portfolios, the core asset classes are somewhat different. In this article, I present a proposed set of core asset classes for income-focused investors, along with examples of representative funds.
The dilemma for income investors is that there are large sectors of the security universe that generate little or no income. To be an income investor is to largely ignore these sectors. Ignoring specific sectors of the economy can reduce portfolio diversification. If financial markets are perfect (aka 'efficient'), it is most sensible to hold an allocation to every sector. The problem is that markets are, apparently, not efficient. There are numerous studies that demonstrate that real markets behave more differently than efficient market theory suggests. Even with this body of research, however, it is indisputable that there is a substantial portion of the economy that will not be represented in an income-focused portfolio. On the other hand, once we start to target income-generating assets, certain asset classes come to our attention that are commonly ignored.
I am not going to explore the debate about an income vs. total-return strategy in this article. My focus here is simply to provide a list of the asset classes that generate substantial income streams and that are worth considering in an income portfolio.
While bonds are core asset classes in total-return portfolios and income portfolios, the sub-classes of bonds that are worth considering is somewhat different in these two cases.
- Short-, medium-, and long-term Treasury bonds: SHY (0.39% yield), IEF (1.8%), TLT (2.7%)
- Treasury inflation-protected securities: TIP (2.2% yield)
- Investment-grade corporate bonds: LQD (3.8%)
- High-yield corporate (aka junk) bonds: HYG (6.6% yield), JNK (6.7%)
- Muni bonds: PZA (4.0% yield), MUB (2.85% yield)
- High-yield muni bonds: HYD (4.85% yield)
- Emerging market bonds: PREMX (5.7% yield)
Treasury bonds have low yields in the current environment, but they end up with some allocation in my analysis of optimal income portfolios because of their diversification effects. A large part of the challenge for individual investors and advisors is becoming familiar and comfortable with less well-known asset classes. High-yield bonds are perhaps the most important of these. These are the bonds issued by firms that are not 'investment grade' and have meaningful risk of default. The long-term historical data suggests that high-yield bonds provide an attractive payoff relative to their risk levels.
Among stocks, a number of sectors and fund styles are consistent providers of dividend income:
- Utility stocks: XLU (4.0% yield), IPU (4.6% yield)
- Telecommunications stocks: IYZ (2.6% yield), IST (6.2% yield)
- Preferred share funds: PFF (5.8% yield), PFXF (5.98%)
- Dividend aristocrats / dividend achiever index funds: SDY (3.1%), PEY (3.96%)
At the current time, international dividend and telecom sectors (IPU, IST) are yielding considerably more than their domestic counterparts. I believe that this discrepancy is largely due to ongoing concerns with the Euro-zone economies.
Preferred shares have been an area of active interest on the part of investors, with substantial inflows. PFF, for example, has a one-year return of 18.9%. One of the most common critiques of funds that focus on preferred shares is that they tend to be heavily overweight in financial stocks. A new fund, PFXF, provides an alternative by specifically excluding financial stock. This fund has a yield of 5.98% vs. 5.8% for PFF.
There are indexes of stocks that have a long historical track record of maintaining and raising their dividends. One of the best-known of these lists is S&P's Dividend Aristocrats. The companies that qualify as Dividend Aristocrats are typically consistent long-term performers, a feature that makes them attractive to income investors and total return investors alike.
Flow-Through Entities
A special class of investments for income investors is publicly-listed companies that pass their income to investors prior to being assessed any tax. The investors are taxed on the income, but the companies are not. These so-called Flow-Through Entities (FTEs) typically own and manage a portfolio of physical assets that generate income. This income is then passed along to investors, after expenses associated with managing the physical assets have been paid. The two most common forms of FTEs own and manage either real estate (Real Estate Investment Trusts or REITs) or energy production, refining, transport and storage facilities (Master Limited Partnerships or MLPs). A less prevalent type of FTE is a mortgage REIT that holds a portfolio of mortgage securities from which it generates income via repayment of the mortgage debt.
- Master Limited Partnerships (MLPs): KMP (6.4% yield), EPD (5.2% yield), CLMT (8.0% yield)
- Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs): ICF (2.95% yield), VNQ (3.35% yield)
- Mortgage REITs (mREITs): NLY (13.8% yield), AGNC (15.9% yield)
Closed-End Funds
Closed-end funds (CEFs) are a special type of investment vehicle that is quite different from its better-known open-end mutual fund counterparts (what most people simply think of as mutual funds). Like mutual funds, CEFs hold a portfolio of securities and employ portfolio managers to select these securities. Unlike open-end funds, CEFs have an IPO in which a specific number of shares are issued. The number of available shares of traditional mutual funds is not fixed, and the fund company can create or redeem shares as demand dictates. As a result of this difference, shares of a CEF can trade at a price greater than or less than the market value of the securities that the fund holds. For this reason, investors need to be very careful to examine the discount or premium on CEF shares (this is a standard metric). CEFs are a popular structure for income-focused funds because CEFs can employ leverage (something that traditional mutual funds cannot). In a low interest rate environment, a leveraged CEF can take advantage of cheap borrowing to create higher levels of income.
CEFs are somewhat complicated. I have written a detailed review article here. Two CEFs that this analysis found to have attractive income relative to their risk levels were EOD (10.9% yield) and HYV (8.4% yield).
There is some overlap between the set of core asset classes that I propose here and those for total return portfolios. While the core asset classes proposed for total return investors will be familiar to most investors, some of those included in the list for income investing are not terribly well-known.
Any investor attempting to create a portfolio out of these asset classes needs to have a sophisticated understanding of risk. Some of the investments listed above can be very risky.
The portfolios that result when we start with this palette of asset classes inevitably end up looking fairly unconventional. Here are two examples:
Can You Get 7% Per Year in Income with Only Moderate Risk? (December 2011)
Can You Create a 7% Yield Portfolio Focusing on Munis and Dividend Stocks? (January 2012)
Investors and advisors who choose to pursue an income-oriented strategy need to understand that the resulting portfolios will tend to have higher tracking error relative to the broader markets than more conventional asset allocations. If the U.S. economy remains in a state of muted growth, however, the levels of income available from this type of portfolio could be hard to match.

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) today released a staff report making recommendations to help prevent a recurrence of rolling blackouts and natural gas curtailments experienced by customers in the Southwest during extreme cold weather the first week of February 2011.
Concluding a six-month inquiry, the task force found a majority of the electric outages and gas shortages were due to weather-related causes. Although generators and gas producers reported having winterization procedures and practices in place, responses were generally reactive in their approach to winterization and preparedness.
"The task force has identified several proactive steps that can be taken by state regulators, electric generators and natural gas suppliers in the Southwest to improve the reliability of energy supply for customers during extreme cold weather," FERC Chairman Jon Wellinghoff said. "We urge them to carefully consider those recommendations and to work together to implement them before another cold weather event hits the region."
"This joint report demonstrates the high priority both NERC and FERC place on reliability," said Gerry Cauley, president and chief executive officer at NERC. "By combining technical resources and partnering, this report provides a comprehensive analysis and identifies a strong set of recommendations for the industry to use to better prepare in the future."
Despite the importance of winterizing plants, the task force found that no state, regional or NERC standards required generators to do so. The report recommends that states in the Southwest examine whether to require winterization plans, and NERC plans to work with industry to develop changes to NERC Reliability Standards to properly address winterization needs.
The task force attributed most of the natural gas shortages and outages to prolonged freezing weather that resulted in dramatically reduced supply and unprecedented high demand. Interstate and intrastate pipelines showed flexibility in meeting demand and compensating for supply shortfalls, it said, but additional storage capacity in Arizona and New Mexico might have prevented many of the outages. Most electric outages were caused by weather-related mechanical problems such as frozen sensing lines, equipment, water lines and valves.
In other recommendations, the report said:
Generation owners and operators should ensure adequate construction, maintenance and inspection of freeze protection elements such as insulation, heat tracing and wind breaks.
- Reliability coordinators and balancing authorities should require generators to provide accurate data about the temperature limits of units so they know whether they can rely on those units during extreme weather.
- Balancing authorities should review the distribution of reserves to ensure that they are useable and deliverable during contingencies.
- State lawmakers and regulators in Texas and New Mexico, working with industry, should determine if weather-related production shortages can be mitigated through the adoption of minimum winterization standards for natural gas production and processing facilities.

Multiple Roosevelt Island Construction Projects Displacing Rats From Their Shelters - RIOC Will Escalate Efforts To Exterminate Vermin And Garbage Removal
The Roosevelt Island Operating Corp (RIOC) acknowledged what residents have long known, Roosevelt Island rat sightings
November 2013 Image Of Rat On Roosevelt Island Promenade Bench From Irena Hage
are on the rise.
2014 Image of Hawk Eating Roosevelt Ialand Rat From Rossana Ceruzzi
According to the (RIOC):
RIOC has learned that there have been increased sightings of vermin on Roosevelt Island due to our multiple ongoing construction projects.
While these projects are crucial to the development, maintenance, and modernization of our island, there is also the unfortunate danger of increased rodent activity, as they are displaced from their shelters. With this fully in mind, we are escalating all efforts on the island pertaining to extermination and garbage removal.
RIOC employs exterminators to service all indoor and outdoor RIOC facilities on a monthly basis and their next scheduled visit is this coming Tuesday, September 6th. The frequency of visits are subject to modification and we will investigate additional services for this current situation.
Also, notifications have been sent to all Roosevelt Island building managers to step up their efforts as well. We hope the community will assist us by making sure to dispose of all waste in proper receptacles and being proactive in keeping our island clean.

Hold "Give & Take Day" Events Nationwide
➢ Give and Take Days are a great way to reuse items that are too good to throw away but you just don't have a use for them anymore – just bring along any reusable items between 11am and 1pm, then take away anything you want from 1pm to 4pm – it's free! (you don't have to bring something to take something). ➢ Example of what you can bring: household goods, pots/pans, books, CDs, DVDs, toys, bric-a-brac, bikes, plants,... more »

The keyboardist who sued Marilyn Manson for more than $20 million is walking away with $380,000 after the feuding rockers settled their legal battle in court.
The rocker reached a settlement with Stephen Bier — also known by stage names Madonna Wayne Gacy and Pogo — on December 11, following a two-year court battle.
The $20 million suit, which Bier filed in 2007, accused Manson of breach of contract, alleging the star used money from their former band partnership to buy personal goods including gifts for his ex-wife Dita Von Teese.
Manson claimed the band's partnership was dissolved in 1996, but Bier — who left the group in 2007 — was adamant he should still be entitled to a share of revenue.
The pair came to a stalemate, and Manson promptly took to the Internet to dismiss rumors he gave in to Bier's demands.
According to the Associated Press, Bier is still receiving a substantial $380,000 payout, but Manson won't pay it directly.
Manson's insurance company will hand over $175,000, while Bier's former business managers will pay the remainder.

Tumblr Thursday has been coming to you in the paper for awhile now, so it seemed like about time that this list make its way to the Internet, for your convenience, of course. Some of these are a little old hat now, but they're all important to remember.
Cats That Look Like Pinup Girls
I could not be more proud of finding this Tumblr. It's just juxtapositions of vintage pinup girl photos and illustrations with photos of cats striking the same poses. You will laugh and laugh and laugh, or I owe you $5.
Because you're not the only moron who has missed a high five.
...that Dec. 12, 2012 is the last repetitive date we will ever see. This and more startling information provided by the You Just Realized Tumblr.
What if Adele was Mrs. Doubtfire
It's an important question, really. Another important question: Why in the hell would someone take it upon himself to Photoshop Adele's face onto screenshots of Robin Williams from the 1993 film "Mrs. Doubtfire"? I don't know, but may God bless him.
The "Star Trek" alum doesn't disappoint, and it may even be, dare I say, better than his Facebook page?
A lot of the posts created with quick memes--success kid, bad luck Brian, drunk baby--fall pretty flat, but every once in a while this Tumblr lands a good one.
Finally Movemeber is over, and we get the sexy beards back, thanks.
This Tumblr dedicated to Michael Kors many metaphors heard on "Project Runway" is great. It's like jumping into a pool of Coca Cola and rolling yourself into a sticky cotton candy cocoon.
Sorry, there aren't really any photos of Petraeus' affair with biographer Paula Broadwell here. This Tumblr is simply mocking the media and all interested parties by posting Petraeus affair headlines with photos of the East Coast devastation caused by Hurricane Sandy. Feel bad, yet?
Speaking of Sandy, the well-known Tumblr featuring street portraits of everyday New York residents launched an IndieGoGo fundraiser to support victims of Sandy destruction by sharing their stories on Humans of New York. Tumblr stepped in to help co-sponsor the fundraiser, and proceeds have passed the $160,000 mark in just under four days. (The goal was $100,000.)
Old People Writing on a Restaurant's Facebook Page
It's an oldie, but a goodie.
This one comes from RedEye nightlife reporter Kate Bernot, whose suggestions for Tumblr Thursday make their way in enough to justify a "Kate's Pick" inclusion every week. The photos on this Tumblr are safe for work, despite having "porn" in the title.
WWE on Tumblr
Thanks for showing up to 2012, World Wrestling Entertainment. The organization announced a Tumblr partnership that brings fans GIFs, infographics, Q&As; and more.
Happy 30th, Metro! The iconic Chicago venue has been celebrating its birthday all year and has a Tumblr archive of found materials, ticket stubs, footage, stories from staffers and more that will surely send you down a Tumblr black hole.
Beyonce's Tumblr
Mrs. Jay-Z is all about social media lately. She joined Instagram on Election Day and then posted a handwritten letter to President Obama on her Tumblr. I bet it's the new bangs. Everyone with bangs loves Instagram and Tumblr.
Lydia Callis's Face for NYC Mayor
Comic relief is always appreciated during a natural disaster like the one East Coasters experienced. This Tumblr pays homage to the incredibly animated and entertaining faces made by the sign language interpreter for New York City's Mayor Bloomberg. Girl was working overtime the past couple of days.
This sadly came very much in handy during Hurricane Sandy chaos stirred up by Twitter rumors earlier this week. Consider it a public service Tumblr for...the Internet.
In case you missed it, a gaggle of media sites based out of New York City lost power to their servers during the worst of the storm--and most of them were resourceful enough to redirect readers to their Tumblr pages, where they updated constantly. Buzzfeed wins VIP, here, for their dramatic photo posts.
In other news... Mostly GIFs and a lot of love for "Friends" and Disney Channel Original Movies. So, obviously, you'll love it.
Yet another "Why didn't anyone think of this before?" Tumblrs. Kanye West lyrics mashed up with stills from Wes Anderson movies--match made in hipster heaven.
No judgment. Well, just a little...
This GIF Tumblr about the life of a Hollywood assistant just landed a TV sitcom deal.
And so did this one, which also has a book, by the way. Rhymes with suck.
One person decided to round up some of the most offensive, racist, sexist and, well, despicable tweets on the Internet every day. If you want to maintain your limited faith in humanity, it's probably best to look away from this one.
Bun B's Jumbo Coloring and Rap Activity Tumblr
Recently stumbled upon this one, and it's pretty self-explanatory: Hilarious coloring book depictions of awesome rappers that you can print out and color in while you listen to said rapper. 2012, you guys!
Now this is storytelling at its finest. Writers submit hilarious personal sex anecdotes, typed into the address bar of a web browser and then illustrated with a Google Image search below. It'll make more sense if you check it out, I promise.
This is how we say, "Congrats on your contract extension with the Bulls, Coach Tom Thibodeau!" By reminding you of this here lovely Tumblr.
Twitter has basically declared this the Tumblr of the Week. It pairs "Arrested Development" stills of Lucille Bluth, the matriarch of the fictional and formerly wealthy Bluth family portrayed in the show, with quotes from presidential candidate Mitt Romney. If you're in the dark about the Bluths, it's not favorable, at all, to Romney.
Because even the leader of the free world looks ridiculous when eating a hoagie.
Another popular one making the rounds this week: Nothing like clever use of wordplay, name mockery and Photoshopped movie posters in an Internet meme: "Two lovers. A man. His country. Both ambitious, likeable and apparently meant for each other, but kept apart by some complicating circumstances." Well done, Internet.
Because I just want to look at some cats wearing tiaras. You, too?
How did we not think of this before? (To avoid Jay Cutler declaring war on RedEye again, we should mention that this is a parody Tumblr, with Photoshopped images of Jay Cutler with a cigarette in his mouth. It's not real. Carry on and laugh.).
What would celebrity mugshots from Lindsay Lohan and Mel Gibson look like in the 1920s? Go to this Tumblr to find out.
The tagline for this GIF-centric Tumblr says it all: "My friends are getting married, and I'm just 25 and drunk."
Speaking of marriage, how about some weird wedding behavior mockery? Appropriate for brides-to-be, single people who hate weddings and, well, anyone who's ever been to a wedding.
Whether you're planning your wedding or just really [bleepin'] love cake, this Tumblr is universally approved.
Let me stress that there are thousands upon thousands of Tumblrs dedicated to very specific types of wedding ideas and inspiration for the couples who are actually getting married and planning a shindig. Here's one of them that doesn't take itself too seriously but still shares plenty of nice photos and ideas.
Heard of "ghost signs"? You've seen them everywhere--they're hand-painted advertisements on sides of buildings that have been preserved but are significantly faded. This Tumblr collection of them might make you look around (up, specifically) at your neighborhood in a totally different way.
What better place to practice public voyeurism than on the CTA? Sure, it seems kind of creepy, but you already do it anyway. Why not make a whole Tumblr out of it?
Speaking of the CTA, here's a weekly comic documenting the trials and tribulations of your daily commute.
Self-explanatory. Stop wearing fedoras, nerd.
You've seen the videos, the highlights of which came from the circus of ads from Republican candidates for president in the past year, now follow the Tumblr.
Ever wanted a book's title to be a little more to-the-point? Posts on the Tumblr replace titles on cover images with more straight-forward ones. Example: Simply titling a collection of "Peanuts" comics "Sad, Depressing Children and Their Many Many Failures." Of course this Tumblr has a book deal, which was released Sept. 24.
You like charts, and these guys love charts. Follow this Tumblr for a careful curation of some of the best ones on the web as they relate to politics, everyday how-to's, "Breaking Bad" and more.
What better way to honor the icon than with some reblogs of vintage GIFs from his years on top?
Bad dog. Very very bad dog. Who doesn't know a mutt who deserves to be chastised on the Internet for pooping in the dishwasher?
Good dog. Lust-worthy interior design and furry creatures actually do go together, if you do it right.
Good dog. Very clearly a good dog. The puppies are OK, too.
Bad dog, most of the time. But this bad, fictional dog and his fictional owner that exchange fictional texts are making us laugh while laughing their way to the bank. The blog recently scored a book deal.
The timeless hair accessories of gymnasts haven't gotten nearly enough recognition throughout these Games. Is that an #NBCfail or just a #Societyfail?
Comedian and "Parks and Recreation" co-star Aziz Ansari seems to fit in quite well on the cover of pretty much any rap album ever.
Totally Not 'Shopped Pics From Mars
I'm so glad the Mars Rover was able to safely unload the Statue of Liberty onto Mars upon landing. It fits in perfectly!
Rhymes with "duck." Speaking of the Mars Rover, you'd like a Tumblr dedicated to Bobak Ferdowsi, NASA's extremely hot guy with the mohawk seen in the control room while the Rover was landing, right? Right.
Slightly Insulting Olympic Posters
From the folks who brought us the Slightly Insulting Chicago Posters Tumblr, this one applies the insult treatment to countries around the world competing in the Games. You might/probably will be offended. And giggle.
We knew these NBA stars were hipsters before they were featured on this Tumblr. So, there.
Can someone update this thing, for crying out loud? Dedicated to Mayor Rahm Emanuel, this clever mashup named blog has a lot of potential but hasn't had a new post since February.
Friendly reminder--we're on here, and we're awesome. Click this weekend to see some fun Lollapalooza photos and more.

Egor, first of all thank you for the outstanding photos and documents you have posted.
But at the same time, my two cents about this story regarding Auto Unions being rebuilt into Soviet record cars. There's still no proof of this other than some visual similarity, and comparing pictures of various Pomogaibo's cars with streamlined Auto Unions you can note different proportions - wheelbase, similar but still different body lines and so on. I still think Mr.Alexandrov was mistaken on this fact and what we can see is a result of borrowing ideas from AU racers, but not the cars themselves. Even though I haven't read his book, I've seen a part of it which concerns Soviet racing machinery and can sadly state that there are many mistakes in photo captures alone - wrongly identified cars, years and people to name a few, which doesn't let me just believe his stories without any proof.
Egor's great information has come with need of a better translation, but I'm not complaining, I'm just glad he's doing it.
My translation of his post is that he isn't saying any specific streamliner car was built strictly to AU specs, but that we do know the Russians did use AU technology, and Egor points to some examples of AU similarities, and that it is a possibility some AU was used in a streamliner. But not that it is of certain.

Salmo Marmoratus, the most beautiful and wild of trouts, lives in the Sarca river and up to the late '70s it was the unquestionable queen.
The most favourite habitat is the middle-upper trait of stream flows with higher carriage levels of water, filled with hiding escapes and deep holes, right down to the area of the Fario trout. It can be easily mistaken for other species, including the Fario trout. To recognise it among others, the marble trout has grey, irregular sinuous lines along its back and sides, which extend all the way to the operculum but not the fins. Slender and cylindric body, big head, very big mouth with jaw reaching the back side of the eye, and strong teeth. Dorsal fin and caudal fin are both dark grey; pectoral fins, pelvic fins and anal fin and light grey and yellowish. Marble trouts at young stages can present small red spots on their bodies, similarly to the Fario trouts. It can be over 1 metre long, reaching a weight of even 15kg.
It characterises the main trait of the Sarca river, with populations more or less consistent and small nucleuses even in the Sarca of Val di Genova. Sporadic examples moving upstream can be found on the lowest traits of the main streams.
The Marble trout has a good ability to reproduce naturally. Through its evolution, it has adapted itself to heavy and rough waters better than Fario and Iridee have done. Its behaviour is cautious and distrustful, which makes it a difficult prey to catch but gives great satisfaction once caught.
It can reach much bigger sizes than other trout species.
It's an endemic species existing only in certain rivers that flow into the High Adriatic Sea and their tributaries. This is why the Marble trout provides national and international prestige to the rivers where it resides.

From the 21st September to the 27th September 2015, the program will be embraced by the beautiful sceneries of the Dolomites of the Brenta and Adamello, from where the Sarca river is born. 4 contest fields along the river and one in the little Alpine lake Nembia, where European contesters coming from 20 different countries will be competing in the art of fly fishing. It is a technique that requires high level of competence as well as sophisticated equipment, often handmade by the fisherman himself, who pays attention to the morphology of the insects naturally present in the vicinity of the water streams at a particular time. The technique requires the catch and immediate release of the prey, right after the judge verifies the length of the fish. The last edition of the Championship was held in Sweden.

Pioneer Football League Commissioner Patty Viverito announced that Campbell University, located in Buies Creek, N.C., has accepted the league's invitation for membership.
Campbell, which announced its return to intercollegiate football in April 2006, will begin league play in 2008 as the league's ninth member. PFL teams will compete in a full round-robin schedule.
"All of us at Campbell University are extremely excited about membership in the Pioneer Football League," said Campbell president Dr. Jerry Wallace. "Conference membership is such a vital step in the development of any football program. We are fortunate to be included with such a fine group of quality institutions who are competing at the same level of college football. The PFL is a great home for Campbell football and we know great rivalries will be developed as we begin competition with the 2008 season."
"We are proud to welcome Campbell to the Pioneer Football League", said commissioner Viverito. "PFL expansion is a positive step toward growing non-scholarship football, within the league and nationally."
In June 2007 the PFL hosted a summit for institutions which sponsor, or have interest in sponsoring, Division I non-scholarship football programs. Since that time, the league has taken a leadership role to foster this brand of football, recognizing it is important to have those that sponsor non-scholarship football to keep it and those considering adding non-scholarship football to add it.
"Campbell is doing everything they need to do to be a top notch FCS program," Valpo head coach Stacy Adams said. "They will be competitive in this league from the beginning."
The Pioneer Football League, which recently completed its 15th season, is a non-scholarship NCAA Football Championship Sub-Division conference. The league still retains four of its charter members – Butler University, the University of Dayton, Drake University and Valparaiso University, plus the University of San Diego (joining in 1992) – which were joined in 2001 by four new teams, three of which remain today – Davidson College, Jacksonville University and Morehead State University.
In January 1991 the NCAA passed legislation to require Division I institutions to sponsor all intercollegiate sports at the Division I level. Each of the league's members are dedicated to the enhancement and sound management of intercollegiate football as an integral part of the student-athletes' collegiate experience. From the league's inception it has been a proponent of the creation of a non-scholarship football classification within Division I and adopted the moniker of Pioneer based on the intent to become the first league in that new division. All the league's members are committed to the non-scholarship football model.

We Have Launched a BlogApril 23, 2009
Jeremy Caplan is a public affairs specialist in the International Trade Administration's Office of Public Affairs.
Yes, government blogs are a hot topic in some quarters these days. In the public and within the government itself, there is a healthy mix of excitement and [insert a negative word of your choice] about what they might be able to help accomplish and how smooth or bumpy the road to get there may be. At the International Trade Administration, we think that the blog format could be a great way for us to engage citizens, businesses, and our other stakeholders in a new way (for us as an organization, at least) in a discussion about what we do and why do it, so we decided to launch a blog.
The ITA Blog is to be a study of international trade and the issues involved between us at ITA and you, the trade-interested community. It is meant to be an ongoing dialogue about how trade benefits U.S. businesses and what ITA is doing to helping them achieve those benefits. The ITA Blog will be a new channel to provide context for trade promotion, policy and analysis to show how trade fits into the bigger picture. It will answer questions about what is trade and why is it important?
The ITA Blog will feature blog posts written by ITA employees at all levels. From our trade specialists working directly with companies to help them achieve their first exports to our analysts working in Washington cubicles to our senior officials, we will show you what ITA is doing on trade.
What comes next after the blog entries are posted is up to you. We will provide you an opportunity to reply to our blog posts and we look forward to engaging you in discussions about the questions and issues they raise. So, please, join us as we take up the study of international trade.
A note on blog functionality: As we begin our international trade adventure with you here on the ITA Blog, you may notice the absence of some normal blog features (RSS feeds, categories, etc). We know that they are needed and will add them as soon as we can. Those of you that have worked with the government before probably know that simple is never as simple as it should be. We know that here, too.
