Messianic fellowship is a community of people, born into different cultures and faiths, united as believers in Yeshua the Messiah. He was sent by the one true G-d to reconcile people to Himself. We choose the Hebrew words for the familiar names of Jesus (Yeshua) and Christ (Messiah) in acknowledgement of the Hebrew roots of our faith as detailed in the TaNaKh (the Torah, Prophets and Writings, together commonly referred to as the Old Testament) and the New Testament.
We choose to study history and obey commandments as given by G-d in the Bible, beginning with Genesis and ending with Revelation. This includes observing the Hebrew calendar, the feasts enumerated in Scripture and instructions concerning life style.
We give glory to G-d that our salvation is accomplished through Yeshua's completed work on the tree. We thank Him for the indwelling of His Holy Spirit which empowers us to do His will. We know from Scripture that G-d promised to write His teaching and instruction on our hearts. It is the intent of our hearts to be obedient to the teachings of Scripture.
If you are interested in exploring the Hebrew roots of the faith practiced by the followers of Yeshua the Messiah, please join us on Wednesday or Friday evenings.

Ever wonder what it would be like to intern for Victoria Beckham? Or, perhaps, develop shoe prototypes for FENDI? Well, thanks to The Business of Fashion website, there's now a platform to turn those dreams into reality.
Yesterday, BoF unveiled BoF Careers, a global marketplace for fashion talent. The site – dedicated to connecting the best in the biz – will serve as virtual hub for job postings, editorial pieces, and company profiles. And it's already partnered with some pretty impressive brands, like LVMH, Tory Burch, and Swarovski.
What's the driving force behind this launch? Well, according to a new report by the Boston Consulting Group and BoF, half of the 60 fashion companies surveyed felt they didn't have access to the best creative talent.
So, if you're currently groveling at your boss's feet (à la The Devil Wears Prada), grab yourself a drink and know: there are more fashion opportunities out there. And as the saying goes, if you can dream it, you can do it – or, at least, apply on BoF.
Head on over to BoF Careers for more fashion news and moves.

The Walk to the Paradise Garden is a sumptuously orchestrated entr'acte Delius wrote for his most successful opera A Village Romeo and Juliet – the Shakespearian original of which inspired Tchaikovsky to compose his brooding and dramatic Fantasy Overture. Samuel Barber's ravishingly romantic Violin Concerto, is a work both lyrical and stunningly virtuosic.

Hudson Global Inc Stock Downgraded (HSON)
TheStreet) -- Hudson Global (Nasdaq: HSON) has been downgraded by TheStreet Ratings from hold to sell. The company's weaknesses can be seen in multiple areas, such as its deteriorating net income, disappointing return on equity, generally disappointing historical performance in the stock itself and feeble growth in its earnings per share.Editor's Note: TheStreet ratings do not represent the views of TheStreet's staff or its contributors. Ratings are established by computer based on metrics for performance (which includes growth, stock performance, efficiency and valuation) and risk (volatility and solvency).

- The company, on the basis of change in net income from the same quarter one year ago, has significantly underperformed when compared to that of the S&P 500 and the Professional Services industry. The net income has significantly decreased by 164.0% when compared to the same quarter one year ago, falling from $3.38 million to -$2.17 million.
- Return on equity has greatly decreased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of major weakness within the corporation. Compared to other companies in the Professional Services industry and the overall market, HUDSON GLOBAL INC's return on equity significantly trails that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- The share price of HUDSON GLOBAL INC has not done very well: it is down 7.22% and has underperformed the S&P 500, in part reflecting the company's sharply declining earnings per share when compared to the year-earlier quarter. The fact that the stock is now selling for less than others in its industry in relation to its current earnings is not reason enough to justify a buy rating at this time.
- HUDSON GLOBAL INC has exprienced a steep decline in earnings per share in the most recent quarter in comparison to its performance from the same quarter a year ago. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. We feel it is likely to report a decline in earnings in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, HUDSON GLOBAL INC turned its bottom line around by earning $0.34 versus -$0.17 in the prior year. For the next year, the market is expecting a contraction of 185.3% in earnings (-$0.29 versus $0.34).
- HSON, with its decline in revenue, underperformed when compared the industry average of 5.9%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues fell by 23.3%. Weakness in the company's revenue seems to have hurt the bottom line, decreasing earnings per share.

(Written by Elle Yi) High fructose corn syrup(HFCS) is a significant component in impulsive behaviors for people of all ages today. The diets for many kids today include daily sodas, ketchup and fruit juices that are packed with high fructose corn syrup.
Dr. Robert Lustig, Professor of Pediatrics in the Division of Endocrinology at UCSF, did a presentation recently discussing how the biochemical negative feedback system in human beings is out of whack (after consuming foods the system tells the brain "I am done eating and now is the time to burn more calories for energy"). Fructose tricks your body into gaining weight by deceiving your metabolism. It turns off human body's appetite-control system.
He predominantly focused on fructose and even revealed that fructose can be a poison. However, where fructose is found in nature there exists adequate amounts of fiber. Parents need to recognize the differences between natural fructose and processed fructose.
The following information has been gleaned from a 90-minute video titled Sugar the bitter truth, by Dr Robert Lustig, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of California. [Read more…]

In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, the crannogmen of the Neck are gifted and talented hunters and warriors. They have an ages-old feud with House Frey, who rule the lands immediately to the south. The Reeds came to the attention of their liege lords, House Stark, when Howland Reed met Eddard Stark at a tournament at Harrenhal. Howland Reed and Eddard Stark became fast friends and allies. Aside from Eddard, Howland was the only survivor of the raid at the Tower of Joy, on the occasion of Lyanna Stark's death. The Reed stronghold at Greywater Watch is hard to find because it supposedly moves around on a floating island.

Good evening and thank you for being here tonight. Before I start, I want you to look around at the people at your table and everyone at all of the other tables. This is indeed a distinguished group, but you are also seeing something even more significant.
What you see is the legacy of the university, its current successes and, most importantly, the future of Shippensburg and the world. In this room we have donors and benefactors whose generosity enables hundreds of students to attend this great university. We also have faculty members who share their knowledge and wisdom, and others who provide the support services needed by students. And, of course, there are our students - the true heart of this university and the reason we do what we do.
I have spent most of my adult life in higher education, first as a faculty member, then as an administrator and now, as a president. Every day I get up knowing that each day is important to our students. It is important that they gain the knowledge and skills they need to succeed. It is important that they learn from our outstanding faculty. And it is important that they have the chance to meet new people, make new friends and see life from a new perspective.
But most important is that they have the chance to attend Shippensburg, and that's what we are celebrating tonight - the chance for talented and deserving students to be part of the university family and to reach their dreams.
This is a celebration of the spirit of generosity. It is a chance by the university, and by the student scholarship recipients, to thank the many individuals in this room - and those who couldn't't be here - for what they have done for the university as a whole and for each student.
The fact that we can have this celebration is a testament to many groups and individuals. I want to thank our Council of Trustees, the group that helps guide the university as we look to the future, and the Shippensburg University Foundation Board of Directors under whose leadership the foundation has raised funds needed for scholarships and other projects.
We are blessed at Shippensburg to have a cadre of faculty that I think are the best anywhere. Through their efforts, inside and outside of the classroom, our students are truly preparing for the future. That is also true for the members of the scholarship committee, led by chair Dr. Marcie Lehman, which works to attract, select and support our scholarship recipients.
In addition, the work done by members of the other divisions in the university and by our staff associates and others is also instrumental in this process.
Nowhere, however, is thanks more deserved than what we all owe to the benefactors who have so generously given of their resources and of their time. Your dedication and commitment to Ship, and your faith in and hope for these students is a wonderful example of altruism that exemplifies the best human nature can offer.
I've had the pleasure to meet with many donors and to hear the reasons why they have endowed scholarships. The reasons are as varied as the donors, but they all do have some similarities. One is the belief that our students are the best hope we all have for our world's future. None of us know what each of these students will eventually achieve, but we do know that they will use their Shippensburg education - the one they earned thanks to their scholarship - to be successful.
Another similarity among donors is their belief in giving back, in offering to others what they may have been offered or what they may have needed earlier in life. This spirit of sharing is a hallmark of our donors and is what makes them such wonderful individuals.
They know that the resources they donate are actually an investment in both our students and our university. It is also an investment in our future as these students will soon be the leaders of our world, the ones who - I am sure - will meet whatever challenges that we will face.
Some of our donors are also alumni and they have a unique connection with their alma mater. Others contribute because they recognize the importance of education and the role it plays in life. We deeply appreciate all of the contributions and pledge to use the money effectively.
The cost of higher education has increased in recent years and because of that comes an increased need in funds for scholarships. Also, with a planned increase in the number of undergraduates next fall, more money is needed to provide additional or expanded scholarships to talented and deserving students so they, too, will have the opportunity to have a Shippensburg education. Your continued and, I hope, enhanced support will make those opportunities real.I know that the scholarship recipients are thankful for this additional support, and that is why so many of them are here tonight - to say thank you and to show that the funds are being used wisely. To each of you, I want you to remember what your scholarship means to you and how it has helped. You are now part of a legacy and I encourage you to share that with other talented high school students so they, too, will consider Shippensburg as the place they want to continue to learn.
It is also important that after you graduate that you remember the importance of your scholarship and, I hope, you, too, will contribute to our many scholarships or even establish one yourself. By adding to the available scholarships, you will again say thanks, and honor those who have given to you.
Many of you may have seen the new billboards that we have posted throughout the region. The billboards focus on various words that end in Ship, words that epitomize this great institution. And examples of those words are seen in this room tonight.
Leadership. Look around and see the future leaders of business, industry, education and many other fields.Partnership. We are all partners as we each, in our own way, work to help students reach their goals.Stewardship. I promise that the resources that have been so graciously shared with us will be used to ensure that Shippensburg University and its students live up to the high standards that are expected of us.Entrepreneurship. Internship, Championship, Citizenship and, I say with great pride, Flagship!
We are Ship. Thank you for being here and thank you for celebrating the unique spirit of Shippensburg.

I know that a lot of older players can get 15 Gran a day, but if the point of mirage master is to get people to come in every day, then why not just give players 10 gran after the first win of the day (even in the single player arena)? That way players don't just log in to grab 10 Gran, and it can introduce the game to newer players through wins.
Before you start hating on me for making a suggestion about changing the system, hear me out.
I know a lot of older players can get 15 gran easy, but some days it's really hard, especially when the cards keep turning up wrong. It make it frustrating, especially for newer players, to get the free gran. Especially when Mirage master has nothing to do with playing alteil, only to do with the shop system. In this case, the lure of getting gran to have people log in every day is outweighed by the frustration of have to beat the game.
Wouldn't it make more sense to have players get gran after winning a game of alteil instead? I know that it's pretty hard to do that too, sometimes, but if we made it so that people could get the win after beating an npc, I don't think that it would be too bad.

My goodness - the biggest mapping project I think I've undertaken yet and I totally forgot to post it up here! I have a work-in-progress post on my artblog from way back, but nothing else until the present stage.
I've been working on this since mid-July, dipping in and out of the file in Illustrator while I worked on more pressing design matters. It's part of a game project I've mentioned before, which is still on uncertain ground when it comes to actual release dates. Its name is "DarkConduit", and while it is a strategy game set in space, this map has absolutely no relevance to the actual game. That's pretty much why I drew it.
The city-ship of Keel is a ruined hull-turned-habitat, which landed and was re-purposed early into the Andran (human) occupation of their current homeworld, Terra Prime. This planet is, in fact, marked on my map of the "DarkConduit" galaxy. I remembered to post that one, at least! 'Course, it seems I failed to keep it up to date.. *ahem*.
I haven't gotten much further than the lineart at this stage, though I drew up a quick and comparatively crude guide in order to illustrate the various districts. I'm otherwise terrible at remembering the particulars on projects which take this long:
So, recalling as much of the logic as I can: I envisaged Keel as being the docklands city of Terra Prime. It's located in the chief administrative state, and although it is not the capital, the ship was crash-landed next to a fortuitous desert plateau. Large craft land there, safely distant from the capital at Kildare; any cargo and passengers are shuttled to Keel; the 'contents' are sorted and usually move along to their final destination on the planet. This whole process has meant the city specialises in passing trade. Merchants form the majority of its static population, though there are some who've taken non-commercial residence too, in either its exclusive bow district (mostly administrators and 'customs staff'), mid-range Heart habitats or the estate.
Visitors are treated to a variety of entertainments and shopping experiences as they wait to move on from Keel. I haven't given a great deal of thought as to the nature of these, but films and shows, arcade amusements and a virtual reality-enabled stadium seemed like sensible choices. Short-stay hotels are also interspersed within these districts and the Heart, separate from the gated communities in the bow and stern.
At this stage I'm still not sure if I want to detail the actual transport options, connecting Keel with the rest of the cities players will never visit (ah, the joys of lore). It would make more sense to have a station of some sort at or very near the city, but I'm not yet sure if that would be sub-orbital shuttlecraft, trains, other ground vehicles or something entirely other.
For now, it looks like my .PSD is lingering at the labelling stage. I've left space for.. some sort of cutaways, like on my galactic map from earlier, but I cannot remember what on earth is supposed to go in there! So um, until I do remember, here's a more user-friendly preview:
Evidently I need to post here far more often, or at least keep notes on whatever it is I'm working on while I do them. >.< Does anything leap out to you as grossly absent? I'd like to keep this map as usable as my galactic one if possible, to form up a bit of a series.

There is a fix grind out the welds and remove bottoms... and PRESTO a really awsome product really deep using the bottom of the ORIG polaris drink holder. HOPE THE MANUFACTURER IS READING They have a good idea but needs refined, and it will save them money

Why Are So Many People Unhappy?
The ego is the chief culprit in human unhappiness. Learn how to overcome this natural force and take hold of your own happiness.
Why Are So Many People Unhappy?
Robert Louis Stephenson once wrote: "I have a little shadow who goes in and out with me; and what can be the use of him is more than I can see. He is very, very like me from the heels up to the head; and I see him jump before me, when I jump into my bed."
Clever poem, but what is he talking about?
The ego, of course. It is the chief culprit in human unhappiness. Yet, most people live and die with this inner monster running their lives. They neither know this nor how to overcome it. If they did, they would take the necessary steps to bring an end to it.
"What is ego?" you ask.
It is your "social self," as Martha Beck has labeled it. It is what the philosopher Immanuel Kant described as your "precious little self." It is the illusory image of you, the karmic collection of all your life experiences. It is not really you, of course, any more than the you, you see in a mirror is really you either. It is the image of you instead, the self you project to the world. It is, therefore, what someone described as "your make-believe self," or your "social mask."
Ego is distinguished by the fact that it is self-centered, self-obsessed, and self-absorbed. It has one aim, as Wayne Dyer describes it, and that is to "Edge God Out." It is, therefore, the human condition, the one reality all humans share in common. The Biblical equivalent to the ego is described throughout the Old and New Testaments as "sin." It is that part of you that you may think of as you but it really isn't you at all. It is instead the "shadow you," as Stephenson described it, or the "dog," within you, as the German philosopher Nietzsche is purported to have once called it.
Since the ego is this little monster inside everyone and is the cause, not only for personal unhappiness, but virtually all the relationship problems and social evils of our time, is there anything we can do—that I can do—to overcome it?
Here are three suggestions:
1. Know, first, that the talk that goes on inside your head is mostly the voice of your ego. Since I have written extensively about this in the book, The Enoch Factor: The Sacred Art of Knowing God, there is no need to go into great detail here.

DETROIT - The chapter closed on the Detroit water department with prosecutors reminding jurors that defendants Bobby Ferguson and Kwame Kilpatrick were working together to rig contract bids.
Kilpatrick witness: 'It was just getting too goofy'
The prosecution used a text exchange between the two about a contract Ferguson's team won but did not deserve.
Ferguson to Kilpatrick: "Hello Black. You haven't released that contract right?"
Kilpatrick to Ferguson: "Right. They know I'm holding it."
Ferguson to Kilpatrick: "Using your terms, is it still cool with you. I need you to hold it for a long time."
The defense contends the texts are out of context and no big deal. Defense attorney Jim Thomas said the texts mean nothing, "absolutely nothing."
Local 4 reporter Kevin Dietz found Karl Kado outside court on Friday.
Trial turns to contracts at Cobo Hall
Next up is witness Karl Kado. Local 4 found the Cobo Hall contractor trying to sneak out of the courthouse on Friday. When Kilpatrick went one way Kado went the other, hoping the camera would follow the former mayor.
Kado told the FBI he hand-delivered $80,000 in bribes to Kwame Kilpatrick and $250,000 in bribe money to Bernard Kilpatrick to keep his cleaning contracts at Cobo Hallo. After the money was in Bernard Kilpatrick's pocket, Kado says his contracts were extended and the money was increased.

Kensington, MD temple reduces its carbon footprint to protect Creation, will educate members on dangers of global warming
KENSINGTON, MD., July 19, 2006 - Located in the Greater Washington, D.C. Area, Temple Emanuel of Kensington, Maryland, a leading religious congregation on environmental issues, including global warming, and Carbonfund.org, a leading non-profit organization making it easy and affordable for any person, business or congregation to reduce their climate impact, today announced that Temple Emanuel is offsetting its carbon footprint in its entirety with Carbonfund.org.
Temple Emanuel has been a leading advocate for change on the environment and global warming for 17 years, educating the congregation and the broader Jewish community about the dangers of climate change and taking numerous actions to create a green synagogue. Through the efforts of its Board, Staff, and Green Shalom Committee, Temple Emanuel has reduced its waste, uses recycled paper, planted a garden inspired by Biblical plants, and created an ark and bimah using locally and sustainably grown tulip poplar trees. Temple Emanuel is active in the community and a leader in both the Coalition on Jewish Life and the Environment (COEJL) and the Greater Washington Interfaith Power & Light Program.
"Global warming is one of the most pressing dangers facing our planet and Creation" said Rabbi Stone of Temple Emanuel. "We all must do our part to reduce our impact on the environment. Our partnership with Carbonfund.org will focus on reducing our carbon footprint and encouraging our membership and other religious institutions to do the
same," he added.
"We applaud Temple Emanuel taking this leadership position in the fight against global warming," said Carbonfund.org Executive Director Eric Carlson. "Education and action are the two key ingredients in this challenge and Temple Emanuel is proving to all that the solutions to global warming are right before us," he added.
Temple Emanuel has committed to offset 220,000 pounds of carbon dioxide emissions by supporting reforestation projects that reduce CO2 emissions and benefit ecosystems, soil erosion and animal habitats. Temple Emanuel will also inform its members of the program and encourage them to offset their climate impact.
"Congregations serve as leaders of the communities. With this program, Temple Emanuel is committing itself to reduce its climate impact and showing our members what they can do," stated Rabbi Stone. "For those of us who are religious leaders, we must teach others to use less, live more simply, and follow the ancient wisdom of religious traditions. From my own tradition, an Eleventh Commandment: You shall be mindful of your footprints on this earth."
About Temple Emanuel
Temple Emanuel is a Reform Jewish Congregation affiliated with the Union for Reform Judaism. In 2005, it received the Creation Care Award from The National Religious Partnership for the Environment, "In recognition of faithful, creative, and exemplary efforts in caring for creation." The Temple Board of Trustees has adopted an Environmental Policy Statement which reflects its strong commitment to Judaism, and provides specific, action-oriented recommendations for environmental stewardship.

Ex. Ord. No. 13508. Chesapeake Bay Protection and Restoration
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America and in furtherance of the purposes of the Clean Water Act of 1972, as amended (33 U.S.C. 1251et seq.), and other laws, and to protect and restore the health, heritage, natural resources, and social and economic value of the Nation's largest estuarine ecosystem and the natural sustainability of its watershed, it is hereby ordered as follows:
PART 1—Preamble
The Chesapeake Bay is a national treasure constituting the largest estuary in the United States and one of the largest and most biologically productive estuaries in the world. The Federal Government has nationally significant assets in the Chesapeake Bay and its watershed in the form of public lands, facilities, military installations, parks, forests, wildlife refuges, monuments, and museums.
Despite significant efforts by Federal, State, and local governments and other interested parties, water pollution in the Chesapeake Bay prevents the attainment of existing State water quality standards and the "fishable and swimmable" goals of the Clean Water Act. At the current level and scope of pollution control within the Chesapeake Bay's watershed, restoration of the Chesapeake Bay is not expected for many years. The pollutants that are largely responsible for pollution of the Chesapeake Bay are nutrients, in the form of nitrogen and phosphorus, and sediment. These pollutants come from many sources, including sewage treatment plants, city streets, development sites, agricultural operations, and deposition from the air onto the waters of the Chesapeake Bay and the lands of the watershed.
Restoration of the health of the Chesapeake Bay will require a renewed commitment to controlling pollution from all sources as well as protecting and restoring habitat and living resources, conserving lands, and improving management of natural resources, all of which contribute to improved water quality and ecosystem health. The Federal Government should lead this effort. Executive departments and agencies (agencies), working in collaboration, can use their expertise and resources to contribute significantly to improving the health of the Chesapeake Bay. Progress in restoring the Chesapeake Bay also will depend on the support of State and local governments, the enterprise of the private sector, and the stewardship provided to the Chesapeake Bay by all the people who make this region their home.
PART 2—Shared Federal Leadership, Planning, and Accountability
Sec. 201. Federal Leadership Committee. In order to begin a new era of shared Federal leadership with respect to the protection and restoration of the Chesapeake Bay, a Federal Leadership Committee (Committee) for the Chesapeake Bay is established to oversee the development and coordination of programs and activities, including data management and reporting, of agencies participating in protection and restoration of the Chesapeake Bay. The Committee shall manage the development of strategies and program plans for the watershed and ecosystem of the Chesapeake Bay and oversee their implementation. The Committee shall be chaired by the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), or the Administrator's designee, and include senior representatives of the Departments of Agriculture (USDA), Commerce (DOC), Defense (DOD), Homeland Security (DHS), the Interior (DOI), Transportation (DOT), and such other agencies as determined by the Committee. Representatives serving on the Committee shall be officers of the United States.
Sec. 202. Reports on Key Challenges to Protecting and Restoring the Chesapeake Bay. Within 120 days from the date of this order, the agencies identified in this section as the lead agencies shall prepare and submit draft reports to the Committee making recommendations for accomplishing the following steps to protect and restore the Chesapeake Bay:
(a) define the next generation of tools and actions to restore water quality in the Chesapeake Bay and describe the changes to be made to regulations, programs, and policies to implement these actions;
(b) target resources to better protect the Chesapeake Bay and its tributary waters, including resources under the Food Security Act of 1985 as amended, the Clean Water Act, and other laws;
(c) strengthen storm water management practices at Federal facilities and on Federal lands within the Chesapeake Bay watershed and develop storm water best practices guidance;
(d) assess the impacts of a changing climate on the Chesapeake Bay and develop a strategy for adapting natural resource programs and public infrastructure to the impacts of a changing climate on water quality and living resources of the Chesapeake Bay watershed;
(e) expand public access to waters and open spaces of the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries from Federal lands and conserve landscapes and ecosystems of the Chesapeake Bay watershed;
(f) strengthen scientific support for decisionmaking to restore the Chesapeake Bay and its watershed, including expanded environmental research and monitoring and observing systems; and
(g) develop focused and coordinated habitat and research activities that protect and restore living resources and water quality of the Chesapeake Bay and its watershed.
The EPA shall be the lead agency for subsection (a) of this section and the development of the storm water best practices guide under subsection (c). The USDA shall be the lead agency for subsection (b). The DOD shall lead on storm water management practices at Federal facilities and on Federal lands under subsection (c). The DOI and the DOC shall share the lead on subsections (d), (f), and (g), and the DOI shall be lead on subsection (e). The lead agencies shall provide final reports to the Committee within 180 days of the date of this order.
Sec. 203. Strategy for Protecting and Restoring the Chesapeake Bay. The Committee shall prepare and publish a strategy for coordinated implementation of existing programs and projects to guide efforts to protect and restore the Chesapeake Bay. The strategy shall, to the extent permitted by law:
(a) define environmental goals for the Chesapeake Bay and describe milestones for making progress toward attainment of these goals;
(b) identify key measureable indicators of environmental condition and changes that are critical to effective Federal leadership;
(c) describe the specific programs and strategies to be implemented, including the programs and strategies described in draft reports developed under section 202 of this order;
(d) identify the mechanisms that will assure that governmental and other activities, including data collection and distribution, are coordinated and effective, relying on existing mechanisms where appropriate; and
(e) describe a process for the implementation of adaptive management principles, including a periodic evaluation of protection and restoration activities.
The Committee shall review the draft reports submitted by lead agencies under section 202 of this order and, in consultation with relevant State agencies, suggest appropriate revisions to the agency that provided the draft report. It shall then integrate these reports into a coordinated strategy for restoration and protection of the Chesapeake Bay consistent with the requirements of this order. Together with the final reports prepared by the lead agencies, the draft strategy shall be published for public review and comment within 180 days of the date of this order and a final strategy shall be published within 1 year. To the extent practicable and authorized under their existing authorities, agencies may begin implementing core elements of restoration and protection programs and strategies, in consultation with the Committee, as soon as possible and prior to release of a final strategy.
Sec. 204. Collaboration with State Partners. In preparing the reports under section 202 and the strategy under section 203, the lead agencies and the Committee shall consult extensively with the States of Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, New York, and Delaware and the District of Columbia. The goal of this consultation is to ensure that Federal actions to protect and restore the Chesapeake Bay are closely coordinated with actions by State and local agencies in the watershed and that the resources, authorities, and expertise of Federal, State, and local agencies are used as efficiently as possible for the benefit of the Chesapeake Bay's water quality and ecosystem and habitat health and viability.
Sec. 205. Annual Action Plan and Progress Report. Beginning in 2010, the Committee shall publish an annual Chesapeake Bay Action Plan (Action Plan) describing how Federal funding proposed in the President's Budget will be used to protect and restore the Chesapeake Bay during the upcoming fiscal year. This plan will be accompanied by an Annual Progress Report reviewing indicators of environmental conditions in the Chesapeake Bay, assessing implementation of the Action Plan during the preceding fiscal year, and recommending steps to improve progress in restoring and protecting the Chesapeake Bay. The Committee shall consult with stakeholders (including relevant State agencies) and members of the public in developing the Action Plan and Annual Progress Report.
Sec. 206. Strengthen Accountability. The Committee, in collaboration with State agencies, shall ensure that an independent evaluator periodically reports to the Committee on progress toward meeting the goals of this order. The Committee shall ensure that all program evaluation reports, including data on practice or system implementation and maintenance funded through agency programs, as appropriate, are made available to the public by posting on a website maintained by the Chair of the Committee.
PART 3—Restore Chesapeake Bay Water Quality
Sec. 301. Water Pollution Control Strategies. In preparing the report required by subsection 202(a) of this order, the Administrator of the EPA (Administrator) shall, after consulting with appropriate State agencies, examine how to make full use of its authorities under the Clean Water Act to protect and restore the Chesapeake Bay and its tributary waters and, as appropriate, shall consider revising any guidance and regulations. The Administrator shall identify pollution control strategies and actions authorized by the EPA's existing authorities to restore the Chesapeake Bay that:
(a) establish a clear path to meeting, as expeditiously as practicable, water quality and environmental restoration goals for the Chesapeake Bay;
(b) are based on sound science and reflect adaptive management principles;
(c) are performance oriented and publicly accountable;
(d) apply innovative and cost-effective pollution control measures;
(e) can be replicated in efforts to protect other bodies of water, where appropriate; and
(f) build on the strengths and expertise of Federal, State, and local governments, the private sector, and citizen organizations.
Sec. 302. Elements of EPA Reports. The strategies and actions identified by the Administrator of the EPA in preparing the report under subsection 202(a) shall include, to the extent permitted by law:
(a) using Clean Water Act tools, including strengthening existing permit programs and extending coverage where appropriate;
(b) establishing new, minimum standards of performance where appropriate, including:
(i) establishing a schedule for the implementation of key actions in cooperation with States, local governments, and others;
(ii) constructing watershed-based frameworks that assign pollution reduction responsibilities to pollution sources and maximize the reliability and cost-effectiveness of pollution reduction programs; and
(iii) implementing a compliance and enforcement strategy.
PART 4—Agricultural Practices To Protect the Chesapeake Bay
Sec. 401. In developing recommendations for focusing resources to protect the Chesapeake Bay in the report required by subsection 202(b) of this order, the Secretary of Agriculture shall, as appropriate, concentrate the USDA's working lands and land retirement programs within priority watersheds in counties in the Chesapeake Bay watershed. These programs should apply priority conservation practices that most efficiently reduce nutrient and sediment loads to the Chesapeake Bay, as identified by USDA and EPA data and scientific analysis. The Secretary of Agriculture shall work with State agriculture and conservation agencies in developing the report.
PART 5—Reduce Water Pollution From Federal Lands and Facilities
Sec. 501.

The London Olympics are just around the corner and the Tanzania team is supposed to be in serious preparations.
The performance of our athletes at this global stage has been generally disappointing for an embarrassingly long time.
Both officials and athletes have repeatedly given inadequate or preparation as the reason for our representatives leaving for the Games and finally returning home empty-handed.
It is not that we want to deflate the athletes' morale, but we deem it of utmost importance to underscore the need for serious and well-coordinated training if we are to win any medals from the Olympics or any other regional, continental or international sports events.
Winning Olympic medals has been an especially rare feat for Tanzanian athletes, and this is simply not acceptable. Helplessly looking on as athletes representing other countries haul golds, silvers and bronzes when we have none really hurts.
Home sports lovers are understandably bored stiff with the shoddy display of our representatives at international sports championships, most notably soccer and athletics, and the only way to make them smile is to participate and emerge victorious.
The decades-long losing streak must come to an end, and this means we should start with the London Olympics. We have no excuse, as the Games have not been prepared on ad hoc basis, and we have had all the time in the world to line ourselves up properly.
Tanzania Olympic Committee secretary general Filbert Bayi, himself a legendary athlete, knows exactly what it takes for an athlete to win medals at high-profile championships. His Athletics Tanzania counterpart, Suleiman Nyambui, similarly boasts vast international experience in athletics.
The Bayi-Nyambui combination should help in guiding our athletes to improved performance, preferably sparkling and thus doing our nation proud.
Should it be that London is too near for that, then the duo could at least start thinking of strategies through which to "clear the way" before the next such Games as well as other tournaments.
Little is known about how many of our athletes have attained Olympics standards. It is therefore crucial that we dispatch to London only those athletes who have qualified for the Games to avoid embarrassment.
It's of paramount importance for the nation to be represented by a competent team, no matter how small, as what matter most is the ability to perform to satisfaction.
Rather than dispatch to London half-baked athletes, it is a million times better that we buy time while preparing for the next Olympics - in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
TOC and AT officials know what happened during the Beijing Olympics four years ago. It was a debacle. They should aim for a much better display.
Post-event excuses such as "poor preparations" should not be entertained as we have had more than enough of them. After all, why go to war if you know you will surely lose?
Our representatives in London ought to know that they bear huge responsibilities, and it's not merely a matter of making a foreign tour.
We should take a leaf from Kenyan athletes, who have repeatedly performed wonders at international championships. Their success chiefly results from based on rigorous and disciplined training – no magic!
