Today I don't have any field work going on, but there is still a ton of stuff I am trying to get done by the end of the day today. First thing I do everyday is update our facebook and twitter status. You can follow FPAN North Central on twitter at @FPANNrthCentral. I try to post upcoming outreach events and sometimes interesting articles about local archaeological finds. After that it is on to the rest of the day's tasks.
Today I am trying to finalize plans for an upcoming event I have going on in Blountstown, Florida. I have teamed up with the FPAN Northwest Region, the Panhandle Archaeological Society at Tallahassee and the Panhandle Pioneer Settlement for a Public Archaeology Day. It will be located at the Panhandle Pioneer Settlement on September 10th. This is going to be a great event where the public can bring their own private artifact collections so that they can have them identified by Professional Archaeologists. This is a great way to create a working dialog between the private collector and archaeologists. I think this is very important and allows archaeologists to get a more holistic view of the archaeological record. I have been trying to line up volunteers and work on other logistical matters.This morning I went to the P.O. Box to check our mail. I love checking our mail because it is always filled with thank you letters from children. I visit a lot of classrooms and present on archaeology. FPAN also has a ton of hands on activities we do with the kids to teach them about different concepts relating to archaeology. It is probably my favorite part of the job! I have a bulletin board in the office where I display some of my favorite thank you notes and newspaper clippings about some of our events. It is a constant reminder of the impact we are making, and I hope it is a lasting impact. I am a true believer that education will lead to the conservation of our important archaeological sites. In fact, another one of my goals today is to email my education contacts to let them know that I am ready for the upcoming school year. I have a listing of emails for teachers and educators that I email on a regular basis to keep them updated about FPAN outreach events. Some of the teachers even give the students extra credit if they attend! We also conduct teacher trainings to equip the teachers with the necessary skills to incorporate archaeology into their existing curricula.
We also do a lot of things with adults as well. Today one of my main goals is to finish a presentation that I will be giving in early August to a group of adults in Columbia County. I will be talking about the turpentine industry in North Florida. From the 1700s to the early 1900s it was an important industry in this region and I have had the opportunity to work on several sites that contained the remains of turpentine camps. It has been a long time interest of mine. And to think, I had no idea what the turpentine (sometimes called Naval Stores) industry was until I moved up here to Tallahassee! Turpentine was used to seal ships and was also an ingredient in many other products, such as paint thinner, beauty products and medical products as well. I have been compiling information for this presentation for months, now it is time to create the power point and get down to business. I have some really cool pictures that I am very excited to show the public. I found them at the state archives.
This whole summer I have been busy going to summer camps and doing archaeology activities with the campers. Last week I attended a Girl Scout camp and did a whole bunch of lessons with them. Their favorite activity though, was learning to use the atlatl. The atlatl, or spear thrower, is a prehistoric hunting tool. It even predates the bow and arrow! We all spent some time outside learning how to use it. With the use of the atlatl you can learn to throw a spear three times farther and faster! That would come in pretty handy if you had to hunt large game for dinner. The kids always get a kick out of it and so do the adults! Today I want to unpack all my summer camp supplies and send an email to the Camp Director to thank her for inviting me to come and teach the campers about archaeology. I hope that the campers all enjoyed it as much as I did!
Well, I believe that is my day in a nutshell. It is probably pretty different than what most people would expect. No digging in the dirt for me today! As much as I do love excavating, I am pretty glad to be in the air conditioning today, as it is almost 100 degrees Fahrenheit outside today. However, when I was doing Cultural Resource Management I was regularly out there in the heat, so I know I could do it if I had to! I hope you enjoyed this entry and I really hope I gave some good insight into the typical day of a Public Archaeologist!

Winter is coming! Now that we have finally gotten Hallowe'en out of the way I can be utterly justified in lighting my Christmas-themed candles and eating as much Quality Street chocolate as humanely possible, who's with me?! October has been a rather experimental month for me in regards to make up and other purchases, with a few items creeping onto my bank statements that I wouldn't normally opt for. Before I jump right in however, I want to say a major thank you to you all for putting up with my sporadic posts lately due to coursework commitments. Your lovely comments keep me smiling! So without further ado, here's everything that I've been obsessed with throughout October…
Maybelline Colour Tattoo 24HR Creamy Mattes in 'Crème De Nude', £4.99: This is a bit of a dupe for Mac's paint pots, and definitely more budget-friendly. It may come as a surprise to you, but sometimes I actually opt for simple eye make up! I found this little pot super handy for evening out the skintone of my eyelids for days when I want a more natural make up look. Furthermore, the matte formula and fleshy-nude tone means it also makes a fantastic eyeshadow primer.
Nars Duo Eyeshadow in 'Kuala Lumpur', £25: I was instantly drawn to the stunning rich cranberry and rose-gold tones of this duo which will be perfect for the festive season, plus this colour combination does wonderful things for making blue eyes really pop. The pigmentation of any Nars eyeshadow is exceptional, and they last for ages (literally years!) without ever hitting the pan, therefore I do consider them a worthwhile investment despite the hefty price tag. This duo creates a very shimmery multi-dimensional effect, but there are also matte options available!
(L-R) Kuala Lumpur, Crème De Nude
Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in 'Train Bleu', £19: The formulation of these lip pencils are everything. The actual product is more like a chunky lip crayon but with the staying power of a matte pencil. However, true to its name, it has a demi-matte finish which wears well on the lips, even those prone to dryness in winter! I have worn the autumnal berry look to death since the first leaves started to turn, so I needed to vamp my look up a bit for those colder months. I've never really tried a super dark colour before so this was a little out of my comfort zone but I'm so glad I did. The deep and mysterious purple did amazing things for my confidence; what says 'I can take on the world' better than a truly statement lip! The best thing about this product is that you can make it as intense as you like, or you can create a wonderful (and perhaps more wearable) ombré effect by lining your lips with it before applying your usual red or nude lipstick.
Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in 'Sabbath', £15.50: Also during this month I decided to change a fundamental aspect of my make up – the black eyeliner. Okay, so navy maybe isn't all that drastic, but baby steps! I tried this drawn along my top lash line instead of liquid eyeliner and was very pleased with the results, but I don't know if I could completely abandon the clean, precise detail of a liquid eyeliner for long! It was also lovely smudged under my lower waterline since the navy really accentuated the blueness of my eyes (olive and hazel pencils would be lovely for green and brown eyes). I'm utterly in love with the formulation as this pencil is creamy and easy to smudge and blend into place… before setting for ever and ever and ever until the end of time! I may need one in every colour.
(L-R) Train Bleu, Sabbath
YSL Black Opium, £64: So this one is more of a re-visitation than a new favourite! I fell in love with this perfume when my boyfriend bought me it last Christmas. I'm not great at describing scents, but this is definitely very masculine and musky compared to a more sweet and feminine option. The dark coffee, floral and vanilla notes are a really intriguing mix which creates a very seductive and dark combination. I would recommend this as a night-time perfume, and it is especially suitable for Autumn/Winter. In fact wear it all the time! I particularly love spritzing it onto woolly scarves and then catching whiffs of it every time I snuggle into them. Mmmmm.
New Look Faux-Leather A-Line Skirt, £14.99: I'm more of a jeans kind of girl, so of course that had to be changed during this highly adventurous month for me! I tried on and fell in love with this skirt as it is exceptionally flattering due to the A-line silhouette. The rich brown colour is perfect for winter as it can be paired with all of the classic colours of the season (grey, cream, camel, burgundy, black) and look effortlessly stylish. Plus the leather is a fun way to add a bit of texture to an outfit! I especially love pairing it with roll-neck tops in order to channel some 90's flair. Why not.
Gmyle White Marble IPhone 6S Case, £6.98: So a major favourite I treated myself to this month has been my new IPhone 6S, but I know next to nothing about describing technology specifications. So I'll leave it at this; it's seriously pretty (rose-gold!), it's a massive step up in terms of functionality from my old 4S, it has a bigger screen perfect for Netflix on the go, the camera is a huge improvement and the actual phone feels seriously sleek and swanky. Must. Not. Drop. Plus I actually got it on a very reasonable contract (£36 a month – check out Carphone Warehouse) which surprised me most of all! I also adore this case I found on Amazon, because nothing states elegance and minimalist beauty like crisp white marble. It's definitely a lot more suitable for a 22-year-old than the bedazzled/cartoon varieties found in most high street stores. But each to their own!
Also, last week I did a guest post over on Chanelle Hayley's blog for her 'Meet the Blogger' series. Check it out if you have the opportunity, and give Chanelle's other posts a little attention too – she's fantastic!

(So…..it's been like a year since I last posted something, what can I say? I've been busy.)
With 2013 coming to an end, and insomnia in full effect, I've decided to take the path often traveled and do a best/worst movies of 2013. I would usually try to bang out lists of 10, but I haven't seen that many movies this year. I've grown tired of going to the theater unless it's an big, event type movie and most new movies I see come from Redbox or Netflix. Who needs all the hustle involved with going to the theater? Dealing with the traffic, the high ticket prices and crying babies. I'd rather stay and watch movies in the comfort of my own home while eating cold spaghetti-o's right out of the can. I'm also not going to do a "worst" list, but rather a "disappointed" list. It makes more sense to me because my life is consumed with learning about movies before they're released to the point of reading the scripts (I know it's weird, leave me alone) I actively avoid bad movies and have gotten pretty good at it. A "disappointed" list is much better because we have all dealt with bad movies, but having your hopes crushed by a terrible movie you thought was going to be great? It's the worst.
Just to let you know, I haven't seen every movie that's come out this year so there are quite a few that are missing. Are there movies I'm bummed I haven't seen and that probably would have made this list if I had? Sure. Movies like "Wolf of Wall Street", "American Hustle" and "Fast 6" would most likely be near the top of my list, but I'm willing to wait for the DVD release. Also, don't you dare judge me for putting "Fast 6" in the same category as Scorcese and David O. Russell! The last Fast(?) was god damn brilliant and one of the best action movies I've seen in a while, but enough jibber-jabber. Let's get to the lists.
5. World War z
This one really hurt since it was based on one of my favorite books (seriously, here is the link to the Amazon page, buy it now). I could see it coming from a mile away, with all the production issues and re-shoots the movie went thru before it's release. The special effects were embarrassing for a summer blockbuster and the anti-climactic finale left me unsatisfied (that's what she said! Hey-o!), but my biggest problem was the plot. They took a genius book, which would work as a movie split into segments, and created a generic "race against the clock" action movie with
zombies the infected. In the end, the movie did make tons of money at the box office and was the highest grossing movie of Brad Pitts career, but anyone who has read the book know how much better it could have been.
4. Iron Man 3
"Iron Man"? I liked it, a bit overrated but decent. "Iron Man 2"? Meh. "Iron Man 3" Not cool, bro, not cool. Listen, I usually love anything Shane Black does, "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" is on my top 10 off all time and that's why this movie was so disappointing to me. When I first heard that Black is getting the writing and directing gig I was super excited. As far as writing goes, this is the guy that wrote all the "Lethal Weapon" movies and his resume is filled with action classics. "The Long Kiss Goodnight", "The Last Boy Scout" and "The Last Action Hero" (which I recently re-watched for the first time as an adult…it's so f-ing good). So we're set from the writing perspective and the only movie Black directed was "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" which was great, so what happened? I don't think Black is a comic book guy and it really came through on the screen. The whole Mandarin thing was a pointless twist, the fact that the Iron Man armors seen to fall apart like Legos was ridiculous and the trope of a kid teaching the hero a life lesson was annoying. Once again, the movie raked in the cash and was the biggest movie of the year, but I prefer Shane Black with a small budget doing grounded, more realistic action movies.
3. Gangster Squad
I have no idea why this movie didn't work, everything to make it great was there but something about just wasn't right. If I look at the movie individually, it's great. Sean Penn as the psychotic villain is great, Gosling playing young rebel detective is spot on. For christ's sake, Emma Stone plays a sultry 1940s arm candy! It sounds great on paper, but for some reason when it's all put together it just falls apart. The movie looks too clean, too polished….it feels too much like a movie if that makes sense. It's a bummer because the guy that made this movie was one of the guys behind "Zombieland" (I think we might have a 2005 Matt Damon/Ben Affleck or a 2013 Ben Affleck/Matt Damon situation going on here).
2. Spring Breakers
I loved the concept of this movie: take a couple innocent former Disney girls, hook them up with a redneck rapper/drug dealer and send them on a crime spree during spring break. Sounds awesome, right? This movie could have been awesome except the execution is totally flawed, it's a perfect example of how a movie could be much better in the hands of another director. This movie is filled with so many needless scenes and monologues that you could cut 30 minutes out of it without missing a beat. The Disney girls are totally wasted (read: no boobies) and are so unlikable that you root against them, the end of the movie takes such a weird turn that it's hard to make sense out of it. There are good moments in the movie, James Franco's as Alien doing the improvised "Look at my shit" speech alone is worth the $2 you'll pay at Redbox, but aside from that there really isn't anything else that's worth your time.
1. The Iceman
I'm pretty sure most people haven't seen this movie. It never got a wide release and the only reason I heard about it and watched it is because I'm fascinated by the story of Richard Kuklinski (get the book here, it's a great read). This was the role James Gandolfini (RIP) was born to play, but Michael Shannon already looks like a guy that eats puppies so that wasn't my issue. My problem with this movie is they tried to make Kuklinski sympathetic which doesn't work when you're talking about a serial killer. The most fascinating thing about Kuklinski is that he was a remorseless murderer who had no qualms about shooting a stranger the the face with a crossbow because he wanted to know how efficient it would be to murder someone with a crossbow in the future. The guy was a monster and that's what I hoped the movie would be about, instead they tried to turn him into a reluctant anti-hero type of guy who moped around at home because of his conscience. The point is the guy beat his wife and had the NYPD thinking there were 7 different serial killers loose in New York City. The movie refused to commit to the real story, which is by far much more interesting, and that's why it was my biggest disappointment. You're better of reading the book or watch the HBO interviews with Kuklinski himself.
5. Pacific Rim
I really, really didn't want to like this movie. As soon as I heard that del Toro is making a movie about giant robots fighting giant monsters I wanted it to fail. I don't have anything against the guy, in fact "Pan's Labyrinth" is one of the best movies I've ever seen, but there was something about the whole concept that annoyed me. It was like Hollywood was pandering to the geeks, giving us a processed version of what we like, but when I finally saw it I learned that it wasn't the case at all. This is what a movie about giant robots should be like (looking at you "Transformers"), the characters make logical decisions, they're likable and you can actually follow what's going on during action sequences. I only wish I had seen it in the theater because seeing a giant robot rocket punch a hammerhead shark/Godzilla mash-up in IMAX would have been awesome. It's kind of a bummer that "Pacific Rim" failed to connect with U.S. audiences and tanked at the box office, but luckily it was a huge hit overseas which gave del Toro the green light to start working on a sequel.
4. We're The Millers
Holy crap! Did this movie take me by surprise or what?! This was one of the only two movies I've seen in the theater this year, and the only reason I went was because it was at one of those dinner & movie places that I've never been to. It's not that I thought it was going to be terrible, I just considered it a generic comedy that would have its moments I'd chuckle at when I saw it a year or two down the line. I couldn't be more wrong because this is one of those perfect comedies were every joke lands, every joke is hilarious and the actual plot is engaging. In my opinion, too many comedies these days are more like romantic comedies, were there are these 10-15 minute lulls that are all about the love part of the story. This movie, although it does include a romance, never misses a beat and weaves the plot and the comedy so there's never a dull moment. This is one of those movies that people write off only to see it later and be surprised. Also, Jennifer Aniston does a striptease and god damn that woman is smoking hot! Brad Pitt really made a bad call because these days Jolie looks mannequin with hot dog lips and Anniston looks better then ever.
3. Man of Steel
This was the Superman movie I've always wanted, where he actually shows of how super he is. It's what I wanted from "Superman Returns" and why I was so disappointed by that movie. Superman is literally the most powerful superhero ever, why would I want to see him get kicked around by a couple puny humans? I wanted to see him the punched through buildings, crash thru mountains, get hit with trains and have it barely phase him. This movie gave me exactly what I asked for on a silver platter, from Henry Cavill looking exactly like Superman to the action sequences, it was spectacular. The plot was interesting and although we got an "origin story" it wasn't the usual 40 minutes before he actually uses his powers, the cuts back and forth worked great. I also need to point out that aside from James Cameron and Justin Lin, I don't think there's a better director at action sequences then Zack Snyder. Say what you say about "Sucker Punch" but the action scenes in that movie were flawless.
2. Gravity
The best experience I've had in a movie theater in my life next to "AVATAR". It wasn't just a movie, it was like a theme park ride except it filled you with dread, made you feel scared and alone. It made you feel helpless and small compared to the vastness of space, a movie about a situation where everything that could go wrong does go wrong. This was the only movie I have ever seen where I had to stop myself from yelling at the screen, that's how invested you become in the characters. If you didn't see this in the theater, you really missed out.
1. Evil Dead
Yep. I like "Evil Dead" that much. I never thought I'd be saying this, a horror movie being on my top of the year list, let alone be in top if my top of the year list. See, I have a really hard time connecting with horror movies because in my option they all suck. Yes, even "The Exorcist". I've seen tons of horror flicks, but never considered them "good movies", they were like a infommercial to me; something you watch because there's literally nothing better on. They're usually filled with dumb characters that make stupid decisions and when crazy, super gory over the top violence happens to them you don't really care. Most horror movies these days are filled with cheap "jump scares" where something very loud happens during a quiet scene, it's stupid and make akin to shock then fear. It's like getting pricked by a thorn, your body jerks but you're not actually scared of the thorn. If they're not using "jump scares", it's gory/gross out violence but it usually happens to douchebag characters so you don't really care. Once again, being grossed out isn't the same as being scared. That's why "Evil Dead" is my favorite movie of this year, because it took those horror movie tropes and used them to perfection. Were there "jump scares"? Yeah, but you knew they were coming and the lead up to them filled you with dread. They literally took the surprise out of a surprise and it still worked. Was there gory/gross out scenes? Yeah, but it was creative. The characters weren't strapped to some crazy machine that rips their lungs out, the violence was gratuitous but relatable. For example, one of the scenes that made me squirm the most was a character getting a cut on her knee cap with a knife. The knife didn't go through the knee and tons of blood didn't pour out, it was a simple cut across, the same kind that happened on your finger countless times only on the knee and a little deeper. Now, I'm guessing reading that previous sentence made your knee tingle a little, didn't it? That's not to say "Evil Dead" isn't gory, it literally rains blood at one point, but it's creative to the point where it's different from what you've seen countless times. Finally, if the actual horror aspect wasn't enough, the characters in the movie bring it home. You actually care about these people, they're not just a bunch if dumb teenagers looking to bang in a cabin. They feel like real people, not just cannon fodder so when they get hurt or die, it's actually a bummer.

You want to know what is the best place to live. With the Life Quality Index, or LQI, we make it a lot easier to decide which place is better to live.
The LQI is calculated by combining all our data on transportation, safety, health, affordability, entertainment, demographics, leisure and other essentials for everyday life. All our data comes from very reliable sources, like the MTA, NYPD, Google, Socrata, Foursquare and the U.S. Census to offer you the best information to find the right place to live.
You want to be free to go wherever you want, when you want. So in our LQI we use all the available data on public transport, taxi services, parking places and the distance to the city center or the next borough when calculating the livability of a place.
Life is all about the small things, so if you have everything you need nearby, then that is a great plus! When we calculate the Daily Life for the LQI, we take everything into account. Ranging from the distance to the nearest convenience stores and places of worship to Wi-Fi Hotspots and financial services.
You want to feel safe in your new home, so in the LQI you will be able to find all our data on crime levels and the nearest police and fire stations for that particular place.
Health is important to us all. In the LQI we include everything related to your well-being: the proximity to health and medical facilities, but also pollution levels, the proximity you live to busy truck routes or factories, and even the number of noise complaints.
When you have time off, you want to relax and have fun. So the closer to sport facilities, beauty salons and spas, running tracks and interesting places, the better.
Let's face it, what would life be without restaurants, bars, cafes, museums and other entertainment venues? That's why we include it in our LQI.
We use data on demographics to calculate our Life Quality Index. We all want to feel welcome in our community and at home in our neighborhood. Things like average income, education levels, and poverty index are all taken into account to create the LQI.
Place I Live is a comfortable platform for people seeking more insight about neighborhoods. You can view information about safety, transportation and more just by scanning the map and studying the calculated Life Quality Index ratings.
Here you can find more information about Review Place to get a better overview of it. Along with viewing the address lists and looking at provided data about the community and environment on Review Place, you can compare it to different parts of the streets for life quality. You can also compare locations between other streets in New York City.

Born: March 13, 1888, Schlawe, Germany
Nanny was the oldest of four children born to Jewish parents in the small town of Schlawe in northern Germany, where her father owned the town's grain mill. Nanny was given the Hebrew name Nocha. She grew up on the mill grounds in a house surrounded by orchards and a big garden. In 1911 Nanny married Arthur Lewin. Together, they raised two children, Ludwig and Ursula.
1933-39: My widowed mother and I have moved to Berlin. We feared the rising antisemitism in Schlawe and hoped, as Jews, to be less conspicuous here in a large city. We live downstairs from my sister Kathe who is married to a Protestant and has converted. Shortly after we got settled, the Germans restricted the public movements of Jews, so that we no longer feel safe when we're out of our apartment.
1940-44: My mother and I have been deported to the Theresienstadt ghetto in Bohemia. We've been assigned a room on the second floor of a house that is dirty, crowded and infested with lice. The stove is fueled with sawdust. As the youngest in our room--and I'm 56--I've been lugging in the bags of sawdust on my back. I've been getting increasingly weaker, am now hard of hearing and need a cane to walk. Early this morning I learned that I'm on a list of people to go to another camp. I don't want to go but have no choice.
Nanny was deported to Auschwitz on May 15, 1944, and was gassed immediately upon arrival. She was 56 years old.

This year's festival season is again looking like a busy one for us here at DiS with stages in Brighton for The Great Escape and Summer Sundae in Leicester already confirmed. The Great Escape falls on May 10th-12th, but the weekend before that we'll be in the north west of the country to host a stage at Salford's DIY-orientated Sounds From The Other City Festival.
This year's event takes place on Bank Holiday Sunday, May 6th with extremely limited Early Bird Tickets going for £14 (£18 thereafter) from Skiddle or in outlets around Manchester. We've a couple of artists to announce early on for our stage at the Black Lion, with our headliners set to be revealed in a few weeks time.
Eaux, the new project of Sian Ahern and Ben Crook from former DiS faves the Sian Alice Group will be playing for us, the three demos available so far on the group's tumblr showing a more direct, industrially percussive, direction of their dynamically-aware composition.
They'll be joined by Stalking Horse, the motorik-driven project of former This Et Al front man Wu, muscled up live into a five-piece, they turned heads for us last summer at Tramlines as well as with singles on Too Pure and iLike Records respectively.
Heathen Head, Howling Heart by Stalking Horse
Shinies are the latest making waves out of Manchester's current love of lo-fi noise pop, the only track they've made available online thus far - the teen daydream-gaze of 'Spent Youth' - has caused an initial flurry of hype for a group still only a few months old. We, for one, can't wait to catch up on their progression come May.
Other acts elsewhere who have been confirmed include Laura J Martin, CoverGirl, The Lovely Eggs, Joseph & David, Victories At Sea and Laser Dream Eyes. With 17 promoters and 12 stages across 11 venues, there's a slew of headliners and other acts yet to be announced.

NCBA Environmental Stewardship Award Calls for Entries
DENVER — The 24th annual Environmental Stewardship Award Program (ESAP) has officially opened its nomination season for 2014. Established in 1991 by the National Cattlemen's Foundation (NCF) and the National Cattlemen's Beef Association (NCBA), the program has recognized the outstanding stewardship practices and conservation achievements of U.S. cattle producers for more than two decades. Regional and national award winners are honored for their commitment to protecting the environment and improving fish and wildlife habitat while operating profitable cattle businesses.
Seven regional winners and one national winner are selected annually by a committee of representatives from universities, conservation organizations, federal and state agencies, and cattle producers. The nominees compete for regional awards based on their state of residency, and these seven regional winners then compete for the national award. Candidates are judged on management of water, wildlife, vegetation, soil, as well as the nominee's leadership and the sustainability of his or her business as a whole.
"America's cattlemen and women have always been focused on environmental stewardship and conservation, and these awards give us a chance to celebrate their dedication," said NCBA President Scott George. "Over the past two decades, the ESAP program has inspired cattle producers to try new techniques, and shown the world that we are the true environmentalists. If you haven't taken the opportunity in the past to nominate a ranch family you know, now is the time!"
Any individual, group or organization is eligible to nominate one individual or business that raises or feeds cattle. Past nominees are eligible and encouraged to resubmit their application; previous winners may not reapply. Along with a completed application, the applicant must submit one nomination letter and three letters of recommendation highlighting the nominee's leadership in conservation.
The program is sponsored by Dow AgroSciences, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS), the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the NCF and NCBA.
Applications for the 2014 ESAP award are due Mar. 7, 2014. For more information and a complete application packet visit: www.environmentalstewardship.org. – See more at BeefUSA.org.

International Human Rights Seminar
Centre for Socio-Legal Studies
Oxford University
Dear Sir,
I am still waiting a proper response to a letter I sent on October
16th to Mr Ranty Islam, I presume a spokeman of your Centre, asking to make
public and post on your web site, the apology that Centre for Socio Legal
Studies had sent me. I consider that the private communication issued is
totally insuficient in view of the fact that the Centre for Socio-legal
studies had publicly offended me by posting on your web site an slanderous
statment accusing me of having impersonated the condition of Professor of
Latin American Studies of the University of Cambridge, a post that it is
known I held during the academic year 1994. Thus, once more, I demmand the
satisfaction that I have requested as a matter of justice by copying below
the abovementioned letter.
Yours sincerely,
Jaime Requena, Sc.D. (Cantab)
former Professor of Latin American Studies of Cambridge University
Dr. William F. Pepper

Strong first-half finish gives Phils incentive to buy
With slew of injuries and weak bullpen, club needs help in order to contend
PHILADELPHIA -- The only thing that matters for the Phillies is the next 10 games.
Play well in the 10 games following the All-Star break and the Phillies could be buyers before the July 31 Trade Deadline, or at the very least stand pat. Play poorly and any number of players could be traded to contenders in the next couple of weeks. It is a list that includes Chase Utley, Cliff Lee, Jonathan Papelbon, Carlos Ruiz, Michael Young and Delmon Young.
The team's prospects can change by the day, but they open the second half of their season on Friday against the Mets at Citi Field as buyers, following a 9-4 run before the break.
"I think we made a statement that if we are going to be a contender and we're going to win our division or a Wild Card, we still need some help," Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said.
The Phillies need a center fielder with Ben Revere on the disabled list with a broken right ankle. He had surgery on Tuesday and could miss six to eight weeks.
The Phillies also need relief pitchers. Their bullpen has been one of the worst in baseball.
It was an interesting first half for the Phillies. They lost Roy Halladay to a shoulder injury in early May. They lost Utley and Ruiz in late May to a strained oblique and strained hamstring, respectively. They lost setup man Mike Adams to a shoulder injury in late June and Ryan Howard to knee surgery in early July.
They showed some resiliency, finishing strong before the break with everything seemingly collapsing around them, but they still showed they have holes.
First-half awards
|MVP: Domonic Brown From question mark to All-Star, Brown has emerged as one of the better run producers in baseball.
|Cy Young: Cliff Lee Lee reached his fourth All-Star Game based on a strong first half with the Phillies.
|Rookie: Jonathan Pettibone He has more than held his own pitching in the place of injured ace Roy Halladay.
|Top reliever: Jonathan Papelbon Despite on rough stretch, Papelbon has been nearly automatic this season.
"That's been going on for years, someone going down, someone stepping up," shortstop Jimmy Rollins said. "You can always look back and say we could have been in better shape, but we are where we are and we didn't fold up shop. It's a good way to go into [second half].
"It took a while for us to come together, learn each other with new faces, but it's starting to work out."
The Phillies banked on a healthy Utley and Howard bringing the club back into contention in 2013. The season did not start that way, but the offense is showing signs of life, and Cole Hamels has rebounded from a nightmarish beginning to the season.
If the offense can continue to hit -- losing Revere is a blow -- and the pitching improves, the Phillies should be able to take a run at the National League East title. The first-place Braves are vulnerable. Since starting the season 12-1, they are now 42-40. The Phillies are 42-40 in that same stretch, while the Nationals are 40-41.
It could be anybody's division.
"We aren't in first place, so it doesn't matter how far back in that regard," Rollins said. "But we are in the race."
Players to watch in second half
|Cole Hamels Hamels had a first half he would like to forget. They need him to bounce back in the second half
|Darin Ruf He is playing in place of Ryan Howard, who is recovering from left knee surgery. Can Ruf fill the void?
|Jimmy Rollins The Phillies need more production offensively from their former MVP.
The second half carries long-term implications, too. If Halladay returns and finishes strong, the Phillies could try to bring him back in 2014. If the team finishes strong, Halladay and Utley, both of whom are free agents after the season, could decide they want to continue their careers here.
"The last month or so, I feel like we've played some pretty good baseball," Utley said. "On the road trip [before the break], we didn't win as many games as we would have liked, but you were there. You saw it. There was still good baseball being played. We had a chance to win. We had a chance to win the majority of them.
"Yeah, obviously winning is an important part of what I want to do with my future. But I think there definitely are some pieces in this room that can win."
A good start to the second half could go a long way.
"If you come to the ball park every day with 25 guys, and the biggest part of them want to play, and they really are concentrating on playing the game the right way, and enjoying it and getting after it, you'd be surprised at what you can do," Manuel said. "In baseball sometimes, that's how you've got to look at it. That doesn't mean that you're not going to win something. It takes a good team to win, and it takes good players and things like that. You've got to have enough to win and things like that. Like I said before, we're still playing to see how good we really are."

Google's instant previews for video sites weren't very useful because most video sites use Flash and the software that generates thumbnails can't handle Flash. That's probably one of the reasons why Google replaced the standard screenshots with short clips from the videos. By default, the sound is muted, but you can change this setting. The feature is also available at Google Video next to some search results.
"When it comes to videos, people want to spend less time searching and more time watching. That's why we added an enhancement to Instant Previews—the ability to preview videos. Click once on the magnifying glass next to the title of any video search result in universal or video mode. For some videos, you'll now be able to play through a set of four short segments from the video to see if it's what you're looking for (video providers have to opt to make the previews available, so you won't find it for every video yet)," explains Google.
Even if Google announced this feature a couple of weeks ago, it's still spotty, so it may not be available for you. You can also try Bing's Video Search, which offers a similar feature that probably inspired Google.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - Nov. 20, 2009

Bill Still
The Secret of Oz Banned on Amazon
After being on Amazon.com for only three days, the new film on the economy, "The Secret of Oz" has been banned by Amazon.com.
"You may no longer sell on our site," said Amazon.com in an email to Still Productions at noon today.
"This came completely out of the blue without warning, and without any shred of legitimate cause," said Director Bill Still.
Amazon.com's email cites "performance" issues. "We took this action because your selling performance has fallen below our standards." It referred Still to their "Customer Experience Metrics" page to see what the problem was, but a check of that page showed no performance issues whatsoever. See screenshot below.
Still has appealed the ban. Amazon says they usually respond within 24 hours to appeals.
This is no joke. Mr. Still had his movie listed on Amazon for 3 days before they pulled it. Below is the full text of Amazon's letter:
"Hello from Amazon.com.
"This is an auto-generated message to let you know that we have blocked your Amazon.com seller account and removed your listings. You may no longer sell on our site. We took this action because your selling performance has fallen below our performance standards. If you still have items to ship, you are required to take appropriate steps to resolve your pending sales. Your Seller Account will remain accessible and you are encouraged to refund or ship pending orders.
"If you wish to appeal this decision you may do so by following the instructions in Your Seller Account at [http://www.amazon.com/gp/seller-account/management/your-account.html]. An appeal should include a clear plan of action that addresses all reasons for failure to perform; including but not limited to your inventory management methods, your fulfillment practices, and customer service improvements. Appeal requests are usually responded to within 24 hours.
"Your Customer Experience Metrics and goals are published daily for your review here [https://sellercentral.amazon.com/gp/customer-experience/summary.html]. Reviewing them may help you understand where your selling performance has fallen short of our standards. You can also review the performance related notifications we have sent you in the past here [https://sellercentral.amazon.com/gp/customer-experience/perf-notifications.html]."
Mr. Still then went to Amazon's site to discover that, indeed, all his "performance metrics" were perfect, having never failed to deliver a movie the same day or any other issues whatsoever - as you can see in the screen shot above.
I would appreciate the widest possible dissemination on this as this movie is too important to the future of Americans, and their understanding of our money system, to lose. Please pass it along to other bloggers and to any media outlets you know.
Although wide dissemination through Amazon was the goal, The Secret of Oz can still be purchased from Bill's site via PayPal:
"The Secret of Oz."
Related or not, we also learned that this moving is now being discussed in "higher circles" at the very time that the Fed's opacity is under attack. Note the Oz analogy now coming into use:
Coincidentally, this action by Amazon follows the movie's first "rejection" from a film festival after being screened in 9 film festivals and winning multiple awards:
Just this past week, the Peak City Film Festival in Apex, NC, a suburb of Raleigh, NC, rejected the film after first accepting it. The film festival is going on this weekend, here's how they phrased their rejection:
Dear Producer,
Your entry in the Peak City Film Festival has passed through our jury process, but regretfully, will not be screened. Our judges have determined your entry did not meet the criteria for a completely family-friendly production due to certain elements of language or actions, regardless of how small...
I've seen the film twice, there is no language or action in the film that is not family appropriate, the Wizard of Oz movie itself would be less family appropriate.
I sincerely don't know if these things are connected, but this film deserves the widest possible dissemination. Nothing short of our nation's and children's futures may depend on the spark it hopefully ignites.
Thank you,
Nathan Martin

Motorola's 'Good' Moves in Secure Mobile Access
Handset maker's Good Technology unit intros VPN desgned for broader, safer application use on wireless devices.
Recognizing that mobile device users want access to enterprise applications at the same time IT is growing increasingly concerned about wireless data protection, Motorola (NYSE: MOT) has beefed up its Good Mobility Suite to help meet both demands.
Version 6.0 of the suite offers a managed, virtual private network (VPN), as well as enhanced management capabilities, a simpler architecture and improved user interface features.
The new VPN, called the Good Mobile Connection, provides an IT-managed data connection designed to safely link user devices to data and applications secured behind an enterprise firewall.
"We're at a pivotal point in mobile device computing," Brian Havener, group product manager for Good Technology, told InternetNews.com. "These aren't just e-mail devices being managed, these are now modules on the network and need to be treated as such."
It's the first major news related to Good Technology since Motorola acquired the firm in late 2006.
Good Technology provides mobile computing software and service akin to Research in Motion's (NASDAQ: RIMM) Blackberry Enterprise Server offering, which reigns as the most popular enterprise mobile messaging platform.
"We're seeing the fruits of the marriage, and this moves Motorola beyond being viewed as a handset maker and into the role of mobile solutions provider," Carmi Levy, senior vice president for strategic consulting at AR Communications, told InternetNews.com.
"This is very much in the spirit of RIM and positions Motorola as a competitor," he said. "This is how IT wants mobile computing. They want a complete, secure system."
The Good Technology announcement also comes on the heels of growing indications that device users want more than e-mail capabilities while mobile device security is gaining more attention.
A recent McAfee survey reported that more than three quarters of users don't have any security programs on mobile devices.
RIM and RSA recently debuted new two-factor authentication for the BlackBerry to provide secure access to enterprise wireless networks as well as network applications
In January, RIM also announced several security updates to its BlackBerry Server 4.1.5, including configurable document retention policy settings. The company said it was redesigning its platform to provide a customizable solution to better meet individual businesses' security and user needs.
Concurrently, vendors are racing to foster development to meet burgeoning user expectations for applications. In May, Motorola announced a toolset to drive mobile software creation on its MOTODEV platform.
Meanwhile, RIM is offering $150 million for agnostic development and venture capital firmKleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers launched a $100 million "iFund," with Apple's support, to spur iPhone application innovation.
Securing the mobile link
At the heart of Motorola's new Good Mobility Suite is a network-agnostic connection using the Good Network Operations Center (NOC) to behind-the-firewall data and applications.
The Good Mobile Connection enables organizations to deploy any application using standard TCP protocols over its transport, without having to make modifications or develop custom code.
Additionally, IT can set granular data access restrictions using the Good Administration Center, a management console for deploying and managing applications, devices, security policies and data access rights.
The system uses Web services APIs that automate management operations and allows for integration with third-party management portals and processes.
Good Mobile Messaging 6.0 also boasts a few new interface features, such as a customizable home screen and voice-activated dialing even when a device is password-protected.
"Ten years ago, we used our phones as a phone," telecom analyst Jeff Kagan told InternetNews.com. "In that world, no one thought much about security."
But with mounting threats facing mobile, Kagan said Motorola's jumping into the mobile device protection area is "smart".
"At some point, we will suddenly be reading about mass attacks and then customers will be rushing to protect their devices, and that day is coming much closer," he said.

Trade to Penguins has Rejuvenated Iginlaby Staff Writer / Pittsburgh Penguins
Matt Niskanen is in awe of Jarome Iginla.
"The first morning he got here, I looked across the room and it was like, 'Holy hell, that's Jarome Iginla,' " Niskanen, the Pittsburgh Penguins' 26-year old defenseman, told NHL.com. "I've skated with Sid [Crosby] and Geno [Evgeni Malkin] for a while, but I don't know, he's been around for so long and been so good for so long that it took a little adjustment. I don't think I'm used to it yet. He's a legend."
Iginla doesn't have to be legendary for the Penguins to win the Stanley Cup this season. That's part of the reason why he waived his no-movement clause to facilitate a trade to the Penguins shortly before the NHL Trade Deadline.
Chicago Blackhawks on March 26.
After wearing a "C" on his red sweater for nearly a full decade in Calgary, Iginla has been letterless in black and yellow for the past month, helping him feel free, fast and fortunate again at 35 years old.
"I'm feeling as good as I've felt now as far as energy than I have in a while," Iginla told NHL.com. "I don't mean years or anything, but this year has been a tough year. It was a contract year, we had the lockout, and I knew we had to get off to a good start or I was maybe moving. There were unknowns, uncertainties. I love playing hockey, still love it as much as I ever have, but it was stressful leading up to the trade.
"This is exciting, this new experience. I don't feel that pressure or have that pressure of being a leader at all."
But he is one because of who he is. That's unavoidable. Iginla's reputation around the NHL is unparalleled. He is as respected a teammate, a professional, a player and a leader as there is in the League today.
Even though he isn't trying to promote himself in that fashion in Pittsburgh, he does anyway. The Penguins are better for it. They know it.
"He brings a presence, a calmness almost," Penguins forward Matt Cooke told NHL.com. "He's obviously won in a lot of places -- juniors, World Juniors, Olympics, World Championships. There's only one missing."
And there's additional motivation for the Penguins to win the Stanley Cup again so Iginla could experience lifting it. It would justify his choice and his faith in them.
"I think that everyone recognizes that he made a choice and everyone is excited about his choice," Cooke said. "I think that spoke volumes and gave even more confidence to this group that we were his choice. It maybe enabled us to be that much better.
"He carries that aura about him that exudes confidence, exudes patience," Cooke added. "That's an important feature he brings to this group."
Iginla hasn't been on a contender in a long time; so long that he had to think back to 18 years ago, when he was a junior with the Kamloops Blazers of the Western Hockey League, to remember the last time he felt as good about his team going into the playoffs as he does about the Penguins.
"We won the Memorial Cup and we were rated first overall," Iginla said. "In the NHL, we [the Flames] never got there. Even when we went to the Cup Final [in 2004] it was all underdog stuff, so I haven't been in this situation in the NHL."
His initial impression of the Penguins has not changed.
"Right when I first got here you could see that it was a confident but not overconfident group that likes playing with each other, and different players do whatever they do really well," he said. "Everybody does something a little bit different, but they enjoy doing it and they do it well."
Iginla said it took him five games to feel the same way, to get up to speed with the rest of his new teammates. He had one goal and one assist.
"The first five games at least, you're stickhandling and the puck doesn't feel right," Iginla said. "You're thinking. You're anxious."
He called coach Dan Bylsma's system different than any he has ever experienced in the NHL, which is saying something since Iginla played for 10 different coaches in Calgary. Iginla said his adjustment was difficult because after relying on his instincts for so long it now seemed like he had to re-learn how to play, where he was supposed to go.
He didn't, of course. The game isn't any different in Pittsburgh than it is in Calgary, save for the talent level. But Iginla had to figure out the Penguins' way of doing things, how to thrive in a competitive, winning environment again.
He had nine points in the last eight games of the regular season.
"It's starting to get to the point where I'm not thinking about trying to go to the right place," Iginla said. "It's been nice to get here and have some time before the playoffs to get accustomed to it, but definitely there was some time when I just wasn't feeling normal."
Iginla's biggest on-ice impact has been on the power play, where he has scored three of his four goals, all from the left side of the ice after the Penguins worked the puck on the right side to set him up.
He uses a big right-handed shot that Bylsma called a "weapon" the Penguins haven't had in his four-plus seasons as coach. Once Sidney Crosby returns to the lineup, Iginla may even have more space to work on the left side because the defense will be turned toward Crosby and Malkin on the right side.
"There are attributes about players that when you watch them on the ice, all of us and the people in the stands shake their head at, take a double look at and say, 'Wow, look at that, that's amazing,' " Bylsma said. "In the past 10 days, over and over again he takes that shot from that spot on the ice and people do a double take. It's a weapon. It's a cannon. He's released it a couple of times and you question whether the net can keep the puck in or whether it's going to go right through the net. That's what he has right there.
"It's added a dimension to our power play that has been very dramatic."
Iginla has added a dimension to the Penguins that has been as powerful as his shot.
Niskanen can't believe it. A month has passed and he's still shaking his head.
"I don't want to take anything away from Sid and Geno, but it's just that he's been around for so long and he's been that Canadian superstar for a while now," Niskanen said. "He's come in and just meshed with everyone really well. He's a really good fit."

Take politics out of student loans
Last month, I had the honor of giving the commencement address at Howard University. I was filled with hope and inspiration looking out at the faces of all those young people, often the first in their family to attend college.
Those students and their families worked hard, sacrificed and saved to go to Howard. And for many of them, getting a degree would not have been possible without the help of Pell Grants and low-interest federal student loans.
These students and parents understand that a post-secondary education is the ticket to economic success in America. But while it's never been more important to have a degree, a certificate or an industry-recognized credential — it's also never been more expensive.
Since 1995, college costs across the country have increased almost five times faster than median household income. As a result, students and their families are taking on more and more debt. Borrowing to pay for college used to be the exception, now it's the rule.
About two-thirds of college graduates borrow to go to school, and on average they're graduating with more than $26,000 in debt. In an economy still recovering from the worst downturn since the Great Depression, getting a job is hard enough, but paying back those loans is daunting.
To make matters worse, a policy change is coming at the end of this month that will make getting out of debt more expensive for more than 7 million young Americans next year: Without congressional action, the interest rate on Stafford loans will double from 3.4 percent to 6.8 percent, starting July 1.
Based on the average loan amount, doubling the Stafford loan interest rate will add more than $1,000 in total costs for borrowers. For students who borrow heavily to go to college, it could cost even more. Only Congress can keep these interest rates from doubling. And yet Congress has so far failed to deliver.
While I appreciate that some congressional Republicans have recently indicated they're now willing to work with the administration to find a solution, the debate so far has been largely divided along party lines and made no progress.
Americans are tired of political fights in Washington. It's time to stop talking and start doing. People want Congress to put politics aside and come together to produce real results that make a difference. And you can count college students at the top of that list. I am optimistic that both parties can — and should — find common ground to reach a bipartisan compromise.
President Barack Obama has traveled to colleges and universities across the country, urging Congress do its part to keep college affordable by stopping student loan interest rates from doubling this July. With so many students struggling to both make ends meet and afford the skyrocketing price of a college degree, now is not the right time to heap more costs on them.
All of us share responsibility for making college affordable and keeping the middle-class dream alive. Parents need to be smart consumers, and students need to finish on time or even early.
Colleges and universities need to be efficient and productive in delivering educational value to students. Graduating students ready for success should be as important to professors as research and publishing. Institutions should ensure that keeping costs down does not take a back seat to the expensive amenities outside the classroom. Where it makes sense, they should offer lower-cost options such as online learning.
States must do their part to make higher education a higher priority in their budgets. Last year, 40 states cut higher education spending — the single most significant factor in tuition increases.
The Obama administration is working everyday to do its part. But we need Congress to step up and help. Over the past two years, we've worked with Congress to dramatically boost Pell grant funding by passing the Recovery Act. We've also eliminated billions of dollars in wasteful taxpayer subsidies to banks, plowing the savings into aid for low-income college students.
We're helping students better manage their debt after graduation with programs like income-based repayment, loan consolidation and public service loan forgiveness. And we're proposing to double the number of work-study jobs and make the American Opportunity Tax Credit permanent, which would provide $2,500 annually for working families to pay for college. We're also calling for new incentives for states and institutions to keep college costs from escalating.
We took all of these steps because the president and I believe education is a public good. College should not be reserved only for those who can afford it. Investing in education is the best investment America can make to bolster its competitiveness in a knowledge-based, global economy. If we don't invest today, we will lose tomorrow.
Now, America can take another simple step forward and keep the interest rate on Stafford loans at 3.4 percent — but only if Congress does its job and comes together around a fair and responsible way to pay for it.
In 2007, a Democratic-controlled Congress and a Republican president came together to lower interest rates on these loans because it was the right thing to do. That Congress did not put politics ahead of students and neither should today's. Let's do the right thing for America's students — and for our nation's economy.
Arne Duncan is the secretary of education.

MILAN - Italy's fashion titan Giorgio Armani showed an Emporio Armani menswear collection for fall/winter 2014-2015 that stood out for its use of soft fabrics so lustrous they almost seemed lit from within.
From first to last, the collection was a masterful compendium of modern good taste. The narrow silhouette previewed Monday looked fresh at Armani, who made his name with the artfully deconstructed men's jacket. Slim pants ended at the ankle over chunky oxfords. Jackets were tight, with three or four buttons, and had small, high collars.
The somewhat prim vibe of the jackets was counteracted by the quiet but deep luxury of fabrics. Fur was everywhere, either peeking out of hoods in flashes, or sleekly fashioned into soft overcoats and jackets. For the anti-fur crowd, there were sweaters with fake fur inserts, while wool was worked to look like astrakhan.
A moiré effect on a wool sweater added interest and kept things from getting dull. For evening, there was a velvet jacket in a deep reddish-purple reminiscent of the colour of neon lights reflected off a rain-slicked pavement at midnight. Armani shows his main Giorgio Armani line on Tuesday, the fourth and final day of Milan Fashion Week.

HOUSTON -- An airline passenger who says she's a law school student from Mexico has been arrested in a Texas heroin smuggling case.
Federal prosecutors in Houston on Tuesday announced the arrest of 21-year-old Yessica Chanel Cabanillas-Torres, who remains in custody pending a detention hearing. She's charged with possession with intent to distribute and importation of heroin.
Prosecutors say Cabanillas-Torres was arrested after inspectors found nearly 3 pounds of heroin in her luggage last Thursday at Houston's George Bush Intercontinental Airport. Authorities say the woman was on a United Airlines flight from Quito, Ecuador, and was bound for Newark, N.J., allegedly to visit a boyfriend she met online.
Officials say the heroin was hidden in one of her suitcases.
Further details on the suspect were not immediately available.

By Lisa Loomis
The town of Waitsfield is proceeding with plans to formally take land from two landowners with property near Reed Road, so that the town can develop its municipal water system.
The Waitsfield Select Board has warned a public hearing for January 7 to present its plans to take "an interest in real estate adjacent to Reed Road incident to the development of a public drinking water source and fix the compensation to be paid therefore."
In 2006 Waitsfield tapped in a large aquifer within its town right of way on the Reed Road. The town's well is sufficient to provide the number of gallons per minute needed for a municipal water system. That well is not too far from wells drilled by Virginia Houston in the 1990s when she tapped into what is thought to be one of the largest aquifers in New England.
To complete its wellhead protection area, a 125-foot radius around the well, Waitsfield will need to purchase/obtain a small piece of land from Houston as well as Jean Richards. Specifically, the town needs .422 acres from Richards and .423 acres from Houston.
At the January 7 public hearing, the select board will explain its plans and determine appropriate compensation for the two parcels. The town had the properties appraised and made an offer to each landowner but received no responses. Vermont statute requires that the landowners be paid fair market value for their land and that a town show the legitimate public interest that is served by the acquisition of private property. The hearing takes place at the town offices at 7:30 p.m. and is a formal necessity hearing as required by law.
Waitsfield is concurrently developing a public water and wastewater system and will ask voters to okay a bond vote for those projects next year. Once the wellhead protection radius is secured, Waitsfield plans to install a pipeline to bring the water to a storage facility on the former LeClair gravel pit off Bushnell Road -- assuming the bond vote passes. From there the water will be piped down Tremblay Road to Route 100.
The cost of the water and wastewater project is estimated at $10 million, of which the town has received about half in grants and loans.
When Virginia Houston initially tapped into the aquifer she sought and received town permits to truck water from the site to a bottling facility she proposed building in the town. At that time, in the 1990s, Houston said she was not interested in installing a pipeline due to the cost; although, not long after, the town expressed an interest in helping with a pipeline as town officials began looking into creating a municipal water system.
Houston's water project led to a very contentious zoning process within the town as the zoning had to be amended to allow her project to move forward. To allow the extraction of water for commercial use, the town needed to amend its zoning so that the extraction of earth resources was allowed as a conditional use. Houston initially argued, through attorneys and the late Edgar Tremblay, that water should be considered a crop which could be raised and, as such, permitted as a use by right, as other agricultural uses are.
Houston and Tremblay petitioned for two amendments to the zoning ordinance which would have made commercial water extraction a use by right and those were defeated after townspeople petitioned for the amendments to need a two-thirds super-majority to pass. The town proposed three amendments to the ordinance which would have made commercial water extraction a conditional use, subject to town review. Two of those were defeated by a similar super-majority petition and the third passed. The Vermont Legislature has subsequently done away with the two-thirds super-majority provision and has further allowed town select boards to confer upon themselves the right to pass zoning amendments -- unless voters petition for a town-wide vote.

You heard it from the model's mouth.
In an interview with TV Globo, a Brazilian network, Gisele Bündchen announced she was five months pregnant. The confession comes months after initial speculations. In May, Gisele reportedly asked a designer to alter a dress last-minute due to weight gain. A month later, a source close to Gisele told US Weekly that the model was three months along.
This will be the second child for Gisele and her husband, New England Patriot's quarterback Tom Brady. The couple welcomed their first child, Benjamin, in December 2009.
We officially congratulate the couple, and will continue to look for a full-fledged bump on Gisele.
Do you think the couple is rooting for a boy or girl?
