Source: Ellsbury agrees to monster deal with Yankees
Jacoby Ellsbury is switching sides in baseball's most bitter rivalry, bolting Boston's World Series champion Red Sox for the hated Yanks, FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal reports.
Jacoby Ellsbury has agreed to a seven-year, $153 million contract with the New York Yankees, a source confirmed to FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal.
The terms of the deal, which is pending a physical, were first reported by Mark Feinsand of the New York Daily News.
It's the third-richest contract for an outfielder in MLB history, following Manny Ramirez's $160 million deal with the Red Sox and Matt Kemp's $160 million deal with the Dodgers.
Ellsbury's deal includes a $21 million option for the 2021 season, with a $5 million buyout. If the option is exercised, the deal would be worth $169 million over eight years.
The move would raise the Yankees' luxury tax payroll to about $138 million for 10 players. The Yankees hope to get under the $189 million tax threshold next season, which includes about $177 million for salaries for the 40-man roster and approximately $12 million for benefits.
Ellsbury, who turned 30 in September, led the majors with 52 stolen bases despite being hobbled late in the season by a broken right foot. The lefty-hitting leadoff man batted .298 with nine homers and 53 RBI, and the short right-field porch at Yankee Stadium should boost his power numbers.
Ellsbury, who missed half of the 2012 season due to injury, just completed his seventh season in the majors, all with the Red Sox. He won a pair of World Series titles with the Red Sox and was an All-Star in 2011, when he finished second to Detroit's Justin Verlander in AL MVP voting. He has reached the postseason four times and is a career .301 hitter in those 38 games.
Ellsbury played a huge role in Boston's World Series run in the postseason, hitting .500 (9 for 18) in the ALDS vs. Tampa Bay, .318 (7 for 22) in the ALCS vs. Detroit, and .240 (6 for 25) vs. St. Louis in the World Series. He led the postseason with 14 runs and six stolen bases, which is the same style of play he brings to the ballpark every day and why the Yankees are willing to pay such a big contract.
The Oregon State product was one of the top two free agents on the market -- the other being Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano.
Ellsbury is the second major free-agent addition in the Yankees' offseason rebuilding after they missed the playoffs for just the second time in 19 years.
Earlier Tuesday, New York finalized an $85 million, five-year contract with All-Star catcher Brian McCann.
The Yankees also had been negotiating with outfielder Shin-Soo Choo, who like Ellsbury is represented by agent Scott Boras.
After their playoff absence, the Yankees are undergoing a major transformation. Closer Mariano Rivera and Andy Pettitte are retiring, Phil Hughes is leaving to sign with Minnesota and New York appears to be making little effort to retain outfielder Curtis Granderson.
McCann, a seven-time All-Star, is to be introduced at a news conference Thursday at Yankee Stadium.
He receives $17 million in each of the next five seasons, and the Yankees have a $15 million option for 2019 with no buyout. The option becomes McCann's if he has at least 1,000 plate appearances combined in 2017 and 2018, has at least 90 starts at catcher in 2018 and does not end the 2018 season on the disabled list.
His deal includes a full no-trade provision, meaning he cannot be dealt without his consent.
McCann, who turns 30 in February, hit .256 with 20 homers and 57 RBI in 102 games this year, when he missed the first month following offseason surgery on his right shoulder. He has a .277 average in nine big league seasons with 176 homers and 661 RBI.
Following the departure of Russell Martin last offseason, Yankees catchers combined for a .213 average, eight homers and 43 RBI, according to STATS, down from .220, 22 and 64 in 2012.
''We feel we have made a significant improvement to a key position, while adding a high-character presence to our clubhouse,'' Yankees managing general partner Hal Steinbrenner said in a statement. ''Our work this offseason has just begun, but we feel this is an important step towards what will be an exciting and rewarding 2014 season for our fans.''
The Red Sox made a $14.1 million qualifying offer to Ellsbury along with Mike Napoli and Stephen Drew, both of whom are still free agents. Boston went from worst to first a year after dumping three of their biggest contracts -- Josh Beckett, Adrian Gonzalez and Carl Crawford -- on the Los Angeles Dodgers at a savings of about $261.7 million. Instead of making a big splash in free agency last offseason, they signed mid-market players like Napoli, Drew, Shane Victorino, Jonny Gomes and Koji Uehara.
GM Ben Cherington said the lessons learned from their successes and failures won't be forgotten.
''We have to go into this offseason with the same general mindset: to build a roster as deep as we can,'' he said last month. ''The general philosophy would lead us toward a lot of the same things we were looking for last year.''
''Jacoby's a terrific player, as everyone knows. Of course we know we're a better team when he's on the field than when he's not,'' Cherington said, adding that if they could not sign him they would consider moving Victorino, who won a Gold Glove in left field, to center field and looking for a corner outfielder.
Cherington also let catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia go, replacing him with A.J. Pierzynski on a one-year, $8.25 million deal.
The Red Sox have a surplus of veteran pitchers with Jon Lester, John Lackey, Clay Buchholz, Jake Peavy, Felix Doubront and Ryan Dempster all signed. Some of those could be gone since the Red Sox have youngsters, including rookie Brandon Workman, who might be ready for the rotation.
But the veterans did their part in getting the Red Sox to the World Series, where Lester went 2-0 and Lackey won the deciding Game 6.
Ellsbury is just the latest Sox star to switch sides in the rivalry with the Yanks. Johnny Damon made the same move in 2006, two years after helping snap the Sox's Series drought, signing with New York for four years and $52 million. He followed Roger Clemens, Wade Boggs and Babe Ruth.

Converting YouTube links to mp3 or video (mp4) has become a very popular activity among Internet users. Some of them are using this service to create playlists for their audio devices while others are converting YouTube links in order to post them online. During last couple of years websites that are offering this kind of services have grown significantly. The process of converting YouTube links into mp3 or mp4 is very easy and it involves two distinct actions: copying the link and pasting it in a specific zone from the website and downloading the converted file when done. It only takes 3 clicks and there you have it: your favorite music or video is downloaded to your PC, tablet or smartphone. Obviously, some issues occurred because of chaotic use this service, especially with audio or video materials that were protected by copyrights. Over the years, YouTube did deals with some giants in the music industry, record labels such as Warner Music Group and Universal to host music videos on the site. Although the music is always free, most videos have links to buy the songs on iTunes, Google Play and AmazonMP3. The video is supposed to be promotional, but conversion sites provide a way to take the music with you at no charge. Also, trade names, trademarks, service marks, logos, domain names and other distinctive brand features of YouTube were affected by this kind of service because it almost immediately generated a huge traffic volume. According to official estimations, there are roughly 200 million people across the world that are using this kind of services. So Google, which owns YouTube, considered a good idea to hire an army of lawyers and to put pressure on some websites, in an attempt to settle some things straight, from its point of view. Well, although the lawyers have tried to close down some websites specialized on converting YouTube links to mp3 or video, they didn't solved much.
The situation is slowly but surely improving for websites that are offering this kind of service. Take Canada, for example. It is the first country that legalized YouTube conversions with new C-11 copyright modernization bill. Are you curious what is written in it? The bill C-11 text states that if content an individual acquires legally (such as YouTube), uses for private purposes, not gives the content away, makes no more than one copy, and keeps the content for a reasonable amount of time in order to listen at a more convenient time, then, "It is not an infringement of copyright for an individual to fix a communication signal, to reproduce a work or sound recording that is being broadcast or to fix or reproduce a performer's performance that is being broadcast, in order to record a program for the purpose of listening to or viewing.". So, if you live in Canada, you are one lucky fellow. Another example is Germany. In Germany according to German law it is legal to download digital radio broadcasts as well as YouTube videos because there are no copyrights of a third party violated by providing such kind of service and it has to be considered legal. Since there are precedents on this matter, next time you want to convert YouTube links to mp3 or video, you can do it without being afraid that you will be considered an outlaw, as Google wanted you to think in the first place. These sites are created for people and all the people are free in their choice whether to download music from YouTube or not. Besides that there are many different sites which offer to download the content that is 100% legal to obtain. So it means that Google doesn't have any legal power to close such sites and they have every legal rights to exist. No matter what the laws from your country says, you should know one simple thing: you can freely download music from YouTube and listen to it wherever you are unless you're going to distribute or sell it. In this case, you may have a problem.

Routes approved, boats needed
They have route approval, now all they need is a boat to begin passenger-only ferry service from Oak Harbor to points south.
Last week, the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commissioner approved three water routes requested by John Solin and Mike Lauver, owners of a new ferry business called Feet Wet.
One route allows Feet Wets proposed Saratoga Shuttle to carry passengers from Oak Harbor to Coupeville. The second allows service between Coupeville and Camano Island. The third is for a route from Oak Harbor to the Mukilteo ferry dock.
The owners see tourists as primary users of the Oak Harbor to Coupeville route, county employees as users of the Coupeville to Camano route, and business people and commuters using the Oak Harbor to Mukilteo route.
Construction is scheduled to begin soon in Mukilteo on a multi-modal transportation facility, from where people arriving in Mukilteo by ferry can hop a bus or a train.
Solin and Lauver, both former Navy men, got the name of their new company from what Navy pilots say when theyre safely on their way back to the aircraft carrier from a mission over land: Feet wet.
The owners of Feet Wet are new to the idea of carrying passengers across water, but theyve been doing the job on land for several years. They started the Whidbey Sea-Tac Shuttle service, which has proved popular with islanders heading to the airport. Theyve gone from two to five vans, from eight to 12 daily trips to the airport, and added a charter business. Now theyre hoping to hit the water with Saratoga Shuttle.
The Utilities and Transportation Commission (UTC) was inundated by letters of support for Feet Wet before making its decision. City of Oak Harbor, Town of Coupeville, Island Transit and other local agencies, as well as elected representatives and chambers of commerce, supported the passenger-only ferry service in writing.
The UTC, headed by Mark Sidran, issued a certificate of public convenience and necessity, for all three proposed routes, although it still must approve tariffs, timetables and other matters before service can begin.
There is a substantial need for the proposed passenger-only ferry service between points on Whidbey Island, Camano Island and Mukilteo, and a desire by the public for such service, the UTC stated in its order. Financially, it determined that Feet Wet has the resources to provide such service for at least 12 months.
Now is not the time for people to rush to the waterfront and wait anxiously for a Saratoga Shuttle to arrive. If service begins at all, it will likely take about two years. The initial UTC route approval is good for 20 months.
There has been talk for many years at the local, state and even federal level of initiating a passenger-only ferry service in Saratoga Passage. Trial runs were made in the 90s by a company called Mosquito Fleet, but regular service was never scheduled.
Solin and Lauver sat in on a number of the meetings themselves, but the end result was always the same, Lauver said: Lets have another study.
Frustrated, the two decided to forge ahead by creating a company and going to the UTC for route approval.
If things are going to get going, private industry has to lead the way, Lauver said.
Feet Wet may lead, but the owners admit they wont go far without help from the public sector. We strongly encourage a private-public partnership, Solin said.
Oak Harbor Mayor Patty Cohen is on board with that idea. Good job, gentlemen, she told Lauver and Solin in a brief meeting on the waterfront this week. Youre moving in the right direction, but weve got to sit down and figure out the role of the city in terms of a partnership. The city is willing to assume a very active role.
The mayor has long voiced support for passenger-only ferry service, and the city has used the idea to attract some federal dollars for the new pier it plans to build. She expressed satisfaction that finally a local business is set up to to explore the viability of the concept.
Island Transit Director Martha Rose is also supportive of Feet Wets plans for a Saratoga Shuttle.
I think theyve got a great plan, Rose said. Wherever they get that boat well meet them. She said Lauver and Solin have a sensible plan, starting with small boats and short routes and building it up from there.

Corks, Corks, Corks by Angi
I saw a picture of a corkboard made out of different sizes of corks. I'm not sure how they made it, but I'm assuming they took an 8x10 frame and glued the corks to the cardboard backing of the frame. After the corks were dry, assemble the frame as usual, minus the glass and you are ready to go. I'm sure you could make various sizes and styles of cork boards.

fun idea.
Jul 08, 2010
for fathers day (for my husband) I took our collection of corks and picked out the prettiest ones and glued them to the inside of a wine crate (the 3 bottle gift size crate). I stained the crate and let it dry before gluing in the corks. I glued the corks in a step pattern and it came out really cool. on the inside of the lid I glued his collection of match boxes (minus the matches) that he has collected from all over. He loved the box. you can cut the corks in half lengthwise if you wish giving you more cork to work with and they lay flat and fit together better. JUST BE CAREFUL CUTTING THEM....ITS HARD AND YOUR HAND CAN EASILY SLIP.

A family friend who is a wine lover, took numerous corks and created a beautiful side table with a glass top for me. You can also, very carefully, cut the corks in half length-wise, glue them to a sealed (painted or primed, so the glue sticks) piece of 1/4" plywood to make a bulletin board of whatever size you wish. I use old wine corks to store my hand sewing needles so that they do not get lost on my pin cushion, I use a permanent marker to color the ends so I know what type of needle is stored on each one.

I like your idea for the corkboard. I took the packing foam and wrap it in an old curtain and made a corkboard for my daughter and it match her living decor.

RATINGS: 20 MEAN: 2.98/5.0 WEIGHTED AVG: 2.97/5 SEASONAL: Special EST. CALORIES: 165 ABV: 5.5%
Retired in 2008 - re-released as draught only in 2013.
Barking Duck is our interpretation of the little known and very diverse Belgian Farmhouse beers, traditionally made by farmers to feed their workers during summer and harvest; nutritious, safe to drink (the water wasnt) and refreshing. Made before hops became commonplace in beer so other spices were used as flavouring. It was a time before commercial breweries so each beer was unique to the family farm that produced it. Barking Duck, produced in very limited quantities, combines wheat, oats & barley, two yeasts, three hops and a blend of spices including cassia bark. We thought that since we were playing around with some different spices that we might as well get some spicy characters from an unconventional blend of hops. The hops weve used are East Kent Goldings for bitterness; Czech Saaz for flavour & aroma and German Hallertauer for flavour & aroma. The key thing for us is balance so weve kept each of the components at a low enough level so that nothing dominates but taken as a whole its a pretty complex beer. Although we went non traditional in the recipe, we did stay with tradition on the filtration. We didnt do any! Its unfiltered and unpasteurised. As a result, you might notice that the beer is a bit cloudy. That cloudiness comes from the live yeast cells left behind in the beer. Look closely and you might see a bit of funny business going on. There are two kinds of yeast in there. So Barking Duck is complex and refreshing, very fruity in aroma and flavour with mild tartness and a medium bitterness. It has a pale golden amber colour due to the blend of malted wheat and barley.

'God is Not in Charge, We Are'
First IVF Baby Turns 25
ANJANA AHULA / The Times (UK) 24jul03
As the first IVF baby turns 25, our correspondent meets the scientist who fought the establishment to create life in a test tube
IT IS a good thing Robert Edwards has the blood of a Yorkshireman in his veins. During his remarkable career, the scientist has been denounced by the Pope and libelled by his peers in the medical profession. His sin was to believe that he could create life in a test tube, and that this could end the misery of barren couples who wished not to remain so. One opponent announced cruelly that he hoped that any such child of science would be born seriously impaired and put on public display as a lesson. Even James Watson, the DNA pioneer, told Edwards he was dabbling with infanticide. Twenty-five years ago tomorrow, the Cambridge embryologist and his late research partner, the gynaecologist Patrick Steptoe, delivered a decisive response to those who believed that such aims were impossible. It came in a bawling, 5lb 12oz bundle called Louise Joy Brown, the world's first test-tube baby. Louise, now a postwoman and engaged to be married, celebrates her 25th birthday tomorrow, defiantly healthy and a standard-bearer for more than a million babies born worldwide through IVF. There will be a magnificent party to mark the occasion at Bourn Hall, the Cambridgeshire IVF clinic set up by Steptoe and Edwards.

Louise Brown just after birth

Robert Edwards
The Vatican called Louise's birth "an event that can have very grave consequences for humanity" because it divorced the conjugal sexual act from procreation. It gives Edwards great satisfaction that assisted reproduction techniques, of which IVF is one, have taken off in a way that not even he could have predicted. Moreover, IVF babies, including Louise's sister Natalie, have gone on to conceive healthy babies naturally, validating the pair's belief that test-tube infants would be as normal as babies conceived in the womb.
"It was a fantastic achievement but it was about more than infertility," says Edwards, who rarely gives interviews but, when he does, delights in speaking his mind. "It was also about issues like stem cells and the ethics of human conception. I wanted to find out exactly who was in charge, whether it was God Himself or whether it was scientists in the laboratory."
And what did he conclude? "It was us," he smiles triumphantly. "The Pope looked totally stupid. You can never ban anything. You can say, hang on a minute. But never say never, and never say that this is the worst decision for humankind, otherwise you can look a fool. Now there as many Roman Catholics coming for treatment as Protestants."
Edwards, emeritus professor of human reproduction at Cambridge University, meets me at Churchill College, a stark Seventies building where he is a fellow, and we decide to have lunch in the student canteen. His vegetarian diet appears to be serving him well - he is 77 but looks at least 15 years younger - or perhaps it is his evident lust for intellectual battle in the fast-moving field of reproductive medicine, a discipline that has always been peopled by brilliant, outspoken individuals.
Edwards, brought up in Batley and Manchester, studied genetics at Edinburgh University after taking a degree in agriculture at Bangor, then realising that he was "not particularly interested in seeds of wheat, seeds of oats or seeds of barley". It was one of the most fruitful career changes in medical history and he remains in the frontline, editing a respected online journal, publishing papers and attending conferences all over the world. He has made his peace with James Watson, but his enthusiasm for saying what he thinks remains undiminished.
Edwards does not support a ban on human reproductive cloning and thinks it "quite likely" that he will see a cloned human being born before he dies, but stresses that the safety of baby and mother must be paramount. He also supports sex selection for social reasons: "Go ahead and use it. Those parents have to raise those children. Why should a politician tell me what I can and can't do?" His journal, Reproductive Bio Medicine Online, has provided a platform for Severino Antinori, the Italian fertility expert who has, to public opprobrium, declared his intention to clone a human being. Edwards points out that critics of Antinori, who was among the first scientists to use micromanipulators and lasers, have followed happily where their antihero dared to tread. Despite Antinori's abrasive personality - "he's very excitable, he can get very angry and he'll shout at the top of his voice" - Edwards will not condemn him because "Antinori is rather like us".
By "us", he means himself and Steptoe. The relationship between working-class Edwards and the London-educated, piano-playing Patrick Steptoe, whom he called Steppy, began in 1968. Steptoe, who died in 1988, just after the 1,000th test-tube baby was born, was Britain's leading authority on laparoscopy, which allowed the abdomen to be explored without major surgery. It was seen as untested, dangerous and anathema to the "hands-on" culture of the time. Steptoe was shunned by his colleagues, and further alienated his peers by teaming up with Edwards. Today laparoscopy is routine.
Edwards had to travel to Oldham, where Steptoe was based, to work with hopeful patients; he sometimes made the 200-mile journey several times a week. To ease the pressure, Edwards arranged for Steptoe to take a consultant's position at Newmarket General Hospital, a mere 15 miles from Cambridge. All that was needed was for the Medical Research Council to underwrite the move. The council refused, saying that both laparoscopy and the implantation of eggs fertilised outside the womb were too hazardous. As Edwards revealed in A Matter of Life, the book that he and Steptoe wrote in 1980: "I felt sick reading that letter."
Edwards, who lives on a farm near Cambridge, says that the head of the committee which made the decision apologised two years ago. "I accepted (the apology) to a certain extent," he says. "He said he failed to understand the science. He ate dirt, as they say." Does Edwards really forgive them? He shakes his head. "I can't really accept it because I was away from my children when they were growing up." As Edwards recalls in the book, his wife Ruth, also a geneticist and the granddaughter of the great British physicist Sir Ernest Rutherford, and their five daughters paid the price of his work commitments: "All too often I would see Ruth's face cloud over as I had to disappoint the children or to cancel a party, a theatre outing, a dinner, at the last moment."
There have been other battles, too. Edwards is "angry" that Lord Winston, the fertility expert at Hammersmith Hospital and a popular television personality, is sometimes labelled "the father of IVF". "Patrick Steptoe fought him to the death. At a meeting in Carmel, California, Winston was there and said, 'I want to apologise for what I've said in the past'. Winston was referring to his early scepticism about IVF. Steptoe said, 'I refuse to accept your apology'."
In the mid-Eighties Edwards sued several papers, including The Times, for reporting comments by the British Medical Association suggesting, wrongly, that doctors should not work with him because he was involved in cloning. He did not particularly want to fight but "I just thought, what would happen if I don't issue libel actions? I'll be killed for ever". He had his day in court and, subsequently, grovelling apologies: "Many people think that scientists working on human beings are a bit soft, that it's soft science. I'd like to see them in court fighting a libel action. It's tough."
In context, the birth of Louise Brown was the medical equivalent not just of climbing Everest, but of discovering an even higher mountain and climbing it unaided. Despite this, Edwards has not been knighted or made a peer (Steptoe died a week before he was due to be knighted). He has not won a Nobel prize, an oversight regarded as little short of a scandal in the fertility community. He was, though, awarded a Lasker prize in 2001, which carries a $50,000 (#31,000) purse and, more importantly, is thought to be a portent for a future Nobel. "I'm not terribly bothered by it (not being knighted)," he says. "I'm a very left-wing socialist and I won't shed a tear. But if you can organise a Nobel, please go ahead." Had he and Steptoe commercialised their work, they would have been obscenely rich, although Edwards thinks it is wrong to profit from knowledge gained for free.
The million-plus IVF children who will be celebrating tomorrow, and the continued success of the techniques that he and Steptoe invented, are reward enough. Twenty-five years have blunted neither his emotions nor his appetite for science, although he says that asthma and physical frailty are taking their toll.
"This is life itself," Edwards says earnestly. "Life itself. When a baby is born, you have organised it all. That's a hell of an achievement. And to have those babies being born normal . . . well, if they hadn't been, I'd probably still be in jail.
"It's the magic of birth. The whole thing is incredible. A child in your own image - just think of what it means to people. It's fantastic."

This winter, we have noticed that the large, very well-established holly bushes in our backyard now have leaves that are turning a frosted color, as if they have been killed by the cold, harsh winter temperatures this year. We did not see this in past years, although last spring some leaves did turn brown and fell from the bushes until we gave them some Holly-Tone. What might be causing the leaves this winter to become "frostbitten"? Should we just wait until spring to give them Holly-Tone and will the bush then be able to recover? Do we prune the frosted leaves? (The holly bushes are planted very close to a moderately-sized Rose of Sharon tree but this has not appeared to have been a problem in the past.)

USDA Results: Civil Rights
Secretary Vilsack has made it a priority to build a new era for civil rights at USDA and ensure that all customers and employees are treated fairly, no matter their race, color, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, religion, disability or age. Over the past seven years, we have corrected past errors, learned from mistakes, and charted a stronger path for the future where all Americans are treated with dignity and respect.
Providing Better Service to USDA's Customers
- Conducted civil rights trainings for USDA's Farm Service Agency (FSA), Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) and Rural Development (RD) leadership and staff in more than a dozen states with a history of civil rights problems. As a result of these focused trainings, FSA reported the fewest customer civil rights complaints on record from 2010 2014.
- Reduced average evaluation time to accept or dismiss civil rights program complaints by 75 percent.
- Reduced average processing time for new civil rights program complaints from four years to 18 months.
- Reduced the inventory of program civil rights complaints pending final agency decision to the lowest level in five years in FY 2015.
- Formalized protections for customers from discrimination based on gender identity and gender expression in 2013.
- Created a simplified form for customers and program participants to use for civil rights complaints. The form helps expedite the process for those who believe they have experienced discrimination by USDA. By capturing all of the information needed to accept a complaint, the form will reduce the time it takes to process complaints.
- Launched a long-requested initiative to provide an early Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) option in complaints of program discrimination. Program ADR has successfully provided fast mutually approved resolutions to USDA customer civil rights complaints.
- Issued a Departmental Regulation in 2014 that prohibits national origin discrimination affecting persons with Limited English Proficiency (LEP) in both conducted and assisted programs and activities.
- Provided guidance and oversight to USDA agencies, divisions and units implementing new policies for LEP.
- In 2015, issued a Departmental Regulation prohibiting age discrimination in programs and activities receiving financial assistance from USDA.
- Issued an updated Departmental Regulation in 2015 establishing improved procedures for processing complaints of discrimination in conducted programs.
- Issued a statement in 2015 updating USDA's anti-harassment policy.
- Conducted agency-wide training under MD 715 regarding the requirements of operating and improving a model EEO program.
- Revised USDA's nondiscrimination regulation for conducted programs to include explicit protections against gender identity and gender expression discrimination.
- Realigned the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Civil Rights to report directly to the Office of the Secretary, in accordance with Equal Employment Opportunity Commission regulations.
- Analyzed the potential for new policies, rules and decisions impacting civil rights. Over the past three years, the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights recommended important changes on about 25 percent of all policies reviewed.
Correcting Past Mistakes
- With the Department of Justice, announced the historic $1.25 billion Pigford II settlement with African American farmers in 2010.
- Announced the historic Keepseagle settlement agreement with Native American farmers who have faced discrimination by USDA in past decades. To improve relations with Native American tribes, USDA named the first time a Senior Advisor on Tribal Relations in 2012, and all USDA agencies are continually working to engage tribal communities.
- Initiated a unified claims process in 2012 providing pathways to justice for Hispanic and women farmers and ranchers who claimed to have experienced discrimination by USDA in past decades.
- Took action to address recommendations from an August 2012 Government Accountability Office report citing management deficiencies in the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights.
Improved Outreach Efforts
- Commissioned an independent assessment of civil rights in USDA's program delivery. USDA agencies are working to implement recommendations which will improve field-based service delivery to minority and socially disadvantaged farmers and ranchers.
- Established an historic Memorandum of Understanding in May 2012 to increase cooperation on groundbreaking research between the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, USDA's National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA), and the 1890 Land-Grant Universities.
- Reinitiated a robust internal compliance review process of USDA agencies to evaluate their civil rights and equal opportunity policies, procedures and practices.
- Worked with small and minority-owned businesses to purchase goods and services to meet USDA's mission requirements. From 2009-2014, 12.82 percent ($6 billion) of USDA's procurement dollars were spent on products and services from small and disadvantaged small businesses. USDA remains a forerunner of achieving its small business goal of 54.70 percent in fiscal year 2014, which is more than double the federal average of 23 percent.
- Established the Office of Advocacy and Outreach in 2010 to improve access to USDA programs and enhance the viability and profitability of small, beginning, and socially disadvantaged farmers and ranchers.
- Created a Minority Farmer Advisory Committee to advise the Department on outreach strategies.
- Despite USDA's investments, there are parts of rural America where persistent poverty remains. In fact, nearly 85 percent of America's persistent poverty counties are in rural areas. That's why USDA established the StrikeForce for Rural Growth and Opportunity Initiative in 2010, making a commitment to strengthen rural economies and create opportunities through increased investments, intensive outreach, and strengthened partnerships with community organizations. Through StrikeForce, USDA has partnered with almost 500 community and faith-based organizations, businesses, foundations and universities to support 109,000 projects, investing nearly $14 billion in America's rural communities.
- Made significant modifications to the Farm Service Agency (FSA) county committee structure by annually reviewing local administrative area boundaries, ensuring fair representation of elected minority and women producers in county or multi-county jurisdictions. In addition to elected members, FSA county committees may appoint advisors to committees lacking adequate representation for counties or multi-county jurisdictions with significant numbers of socially disadvantaged producers.
- Increased outreach efforts by FSA have resulted in greater diversity among candidates for county committee elections, and among those elected.
- When a statistical analysis demonstrated a persistent lack of diversity on a small number of county committees, Secretary Vilsack used his authority under the 2002 Farm Bill to appoint county committee members to address underrepresentation of socially disadvantaged farmers and ranchers. This has resulted in Secretarial SDA appointments to over 100 county committees following elections in 2012, 2013 and 2014.
- In 2015, USDA expanded the microloan program providing flexible access to credit, and increased lending limits. Beginning and small farmers can now borrow up to $50,000 to help finance farm operations.
Cultivating a Diverse and Inclusive Workforce
- Launched a Department-wide Cultural Transformation initiative to create an environment which fosters growth and provides quality services for all USDA employees.
- Expanded the diversity of USDA's Senior Executive Service Corps (SES) members. Today, USDA's SES Corps are the most diverse across the U.S. government. We have made significant improvements in the diversity of our workforce, including student interns.
- For the past five years, the number of equal employment opportunity complaints reported by employees has been among the lowest on record by the Department.

Accessing Linux partitions with Vista
Vista is no better than its predecessors at accessing Linux partitions. If you need to access a Linux filesystem from Vista, you will need a third-party tool.
Windows has traditionally avoided the challenge of providing access to Linux file systems. If you run Linux and Windows on a single machine, for example, you must either rely on the legacy approach of saving shared files with the FAT filesystem or experiment with some of the new Linux tools for accessing NTFS partitions. (For a thorough look at NTFS with Linux, see the January 2007 issue of Linux Magazine.)
In the past, various third-party tools have offered access to Linux partitions from Windows. Some of these tools integrate seamlessly with Windows and support transparent access – just like native Windows drives – other tools rely on their own file manager.

McCarthy backs running game
Despite struggles on the ground, no changes afoot
While Packer Nation was still raw after a stunning 20-17 loss to the Chicago Bears on Monday night at Soldier Field, Green Bay coach Mike McCarthy tried his best to keep it in perspective.
He strongly backed aging tackles Chad Clifton and Mark Tauscher and insisted his running game is still productive as long as it's evaluated within his specific parameters.
In a brief day-after news conference Tuesday in Green Bay, on a day that the Packers otherwise had off, McCarthy said that considering what his running backs were up against - Chicago's stout front seven and run-stuffing defense - he was OK with the Packers running game.
Brandon Jackson and John Kuhn combined for 13 carries and 43 yards total. The only run production came from scrambling-for-his-life quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who ran twice for 20 yards.
"You have to look at what's the definition of the run game. I looked at this particular game, and I felt that our running backs were productive," McCarthy said. "I thought Brandon and John played well with the opportunities that they were given with the ball in their hands and what was put in front of them.
"I thought the running back production was a positive in the game."
The numbers don't support a strong showing for the running game, but McCarthy seemed to hint that he was considering Julius Peppers, Lance Briggs and Brian Urlacher as part of the evaluation.
He declared, once again, that Jackson and Kuhn are good enough to take the Packers to a winning season.
"I like our running backs. We are going to use them accordingly to get the ball down the field. I'm not trying to sell something that is not true," McCarthy said. "Just because you don't line up and run it 25 times from the 'I' doesn't mean you are not committed to being productive with your running backs. If you look at the dynamics of our offensive personnel, we have the ability to play in a box offense. We have the ability to play in a spread offense. That is to our credit, and we're going to utilize that the best we can."
Either way, everyone could see his offensive line struggle. A holding call here or there could be debated, but when the offensive line is hit the way the Packers were with flags Monday, it was clear most of the men left and right of Scott Wells were struggling to block the defensive linemen.
"We knew we were going to put some stress on the tackles, and we tried to help them some," McCarthy said. "The penalties, which directly affected our point production, is what cost us. People want to talk about the penalties (on the tackles), but two of the three holds were on interior linemen. I thought the tackles' performance from a grade standpoint, they just did OK. We knew they were going to be stressed out, down in Soldier Field, loud environment against a prime player in Peppers."
It doesn't look as though the performance will lead to major changes this week.
The running backs will have to do the best they can with whatever carries they get instead of expecting a 20-carry game to find their rhythm.
"The attempts is not always the most important factor as far as running the football," McCarthy said. He said Kuhn and Jackson will continue to split time.
"I don't think it would be very smart to getting into running either one of them 25, 30 times. We have a lot of football in front of us," McCarthy said. "They have a lot of experience. They can play on all three downs. I think our staff has done a very good job from a game-planning standpoint of using those two on the different packages, and we'll continue to go with that format as we move forward."
McCarthy was not going to threaten to bench Green Bay's tackles who have started for the Packers for more than a decade, either. He sounded as if he was willing to see how they hold up week to week, game by game. He said Clifton would remain the starting left tackle as long as his body holds up.
"Chad Clifton is doing the best he can with his health situation," McCarthy said. "I think we have a very good plan in place. We're doing the best we can from a coaching standpoint, a medical staff standpoint, of making sure that he gets the work that he needs.
"As for Mark, I believe in Mark Tauscher. He's played a lot of football. Now, there are some things fundamentally that he did not do to his standard, and I believe he'll get that corrected. Because Mark's a pro's pro. I don't think it's a lack of anything. It's not a 'he doesn't have it anymore.' We have more football in front of us. There's definitely some things we can improve on there."

Check this out, I think $16 is still a bargain for AK STEEL, Why? Consider this they have an enterprise value of $2 Billion low BUT They have $6 BILLION REVENUE STREAM take that in for a minute thats 3 times the sales of the size of the company itself, this stock is worth AT LEAST $25 to $30 3 times the sales of the companys worth thats some good investing right there.
The real estate alone supports the market cap with out the inprovements,7000 acres of industrial zone. Over 7 million square feet under roof, what would the replacement cost be? 4 to 6 billion. Then there is the machinery and material on hand. Then we have a state of the art finish mill with-in 50 miles or so of 2 large car assembly plants, GM at Bowlingreen, Ky and Toyota at Princeton, Ind. This is just a few of the reasons I believe AK is way undervalued. "Steel is hot and the dollar is loosing value".
the plants and equipment are on the books for 2.2b + inventory 1 b, these are the main assets.the difference is that the 5.2b of liabilties are not rapidly losing value.
why does aks have a p/e 8-10x industry group.why can they only manage a modest profit during the best of times.why do they have chronic labor problems?no one would touch this company at these prices.i think the institutes have given the spec. the word to evacuate the insiders before the big dump starts.this latest rally in steel is totally fake. you wouldn't pump the price of something sky high before making an offer.did i miss anything?
what you are missing is that steel companies need to consolidate to survive.AK steel is a quality company that other steel companies want to buy.AK steel did get an offer and will get another offer! by the way large amount of the stock is being accumulated.watch closing of each day, last trade, large amount!check it out!
i agree!also, at closing,of each day, there is always a large purchers of stock, someone knows something.this company is a gem, at this price and someone knows it.

This is my favorite reference regarding shadow maps:
To improve self-shadowing, check out the various biasing techniques, such as receiver plane bias. Also, variance based filtering methods (VSM/EVSM/MSM) tend to behave much better with shadow acne. They are more expensive and they have their own artifacts, but they can be a good choice.
