Fletcher was being evaluated by a neurologist for a possible head injury Thursday and missed practice for a second consecutive day, putting his 15-year consecutive-games streak in doubt.||||||| Fletcher has appeared in 231 NFL games in a row since entering the league as an undrafted rookie with the St. Louis Rams in 1998.

Since the FED was created in 1913, it has been inflating credit. This credit expansion has accelerated since 1980s. The resulting credit bubble is now in the process of busting since 2007.
For an investor, it is important to know the effects of this credit expansion. It has fueled the stock market bubble of 1980s and 1990s. It has fueled the greatest housing bubble in history of mankind. It has fueled the consumer economy in the US.
When the expansion of credit stops, its effects are rolled back. It will feel like a decrease in total money supply. Less money will be chasing an over supply of goods and services. Prices compared to US dollar will have to fall. That is called deflation. We already see this in stocks, housing, commodities.
Here are some charts from Credit Suisse. They have released these to counter the scary total debt-to-gdp charts you may have seen on the internet. These bankers claim that these charts do not indicate excessive debt burden.
Credit Suisse says:
Chart I below has been circulating in some form or another for some time. It purports to show how disastrously overleveraged the US private sector has become, and is the most frequently cited piece of information used to justify extremely bearish views about the real economy, banking shares and the equity market itself.
The implicit or explicit argument is that the US private sector debt to GDP ratio must inevitably be cut back to a similar level to the early part of the 20th century, or perhaps even to the levels of the 1950s. This would imply private debt shrinking from 350% of GDP now to between 50 and 150% of GDP, something likely to be associated with a repeat of the 1930s depression or worse.
Unfortunately, this chart is both technically wrong and analytically meaningless in our view. As such it is arguably the most dangerous piece of propaganda to come out of the current crisis.
This is how the (aggregate debt) chart should look
the earlier data was extracted from the Economic Report of the President and adds together household debt and corporate debt, both financial and non-financial. This report was discontinued in the 1970s. The later data comes from the flow of funds accounts and breaks out financial and non-financial debt, starting in the 1950s. The growth in the two measures is very similar for the overlapping periods, but the levels are somewhat different. Chart I splices the two series together, using the higher number as the base.
This does not imply that banks, hedge funds and investment banks did not become dangerously over-leveraged in the last cycle, but it does imply that one could and should look at quite different statistics to measure this. For example, the leverage of hedge funds or investment banks, or the haircuts imposed on different types of collateral in the repo market. These measures of leverage have already plummeted and we see no valid reason to believe that they are still above prudent or sustainable levels. Quite the opposite if anything.
"Our third chart looks only at household sector debt to GDP. Here, two points are clear: 1) the household sector was massively underleveraged in the 1950s, and 2) only in the last housing boom did household leverage clearly exceed the levels of the 1920s. If there is a problem with household leverage, then it is a relatively recent one and not necessarily massive in scale."
So Credit Suisse, the bankers, are telling us to go get more debt. OK.
Let us see what the American Consumer is saying:
Here is a poll from September 4, 2009, CNN Money:
Here 26% said SAVE. 42% said PAY DOWN DEBT. That is a whopping 68%. Credit Suisse charts indicate a household debt of just Great Depression levels, and they try to say it is OK.
But what they are forgetting is as follows:
Therefore there are enough reasons to believe that credit deflation is possible and likely. Some say FED can counter this by inflating the credit again, as they are trying now.
Total bank credit is deflating as seen in this chart by St. Luis Federal Reserve January 14th , 2011):
Notice that it had been going up non-stop for decades. The problem is that without government spending, this chart needs to go exponentially higher for each unit of GDP increase every year in the future. That means people must borrow exponentially more. This is because when we borrow, banks create money, they do not lend existing money. For this borrowed money to be paid back as principal + interest, the interest portion needs to be created by even more borrowing in the future so that people can earn it and pay back what they owe. Do you think there is such thing as perpetual borrowing? Can we really borrow non-stop and still afford the monthly interest payments? Sooner or later, it ends.
Total bank credit is deflating as seen in this chart by St. Luis Federal Reserve, percent change in total bank credit:
FED is printing money and giving it to the banks to cancel out the bank losses. Otherwise the insolvent banks would be in a great liquidity crunch and above bank credit charts would have been in much much worse shape. This new printed money is not making its way to the economy and the people, so it is not causing inflation. So far, this is merely a scheme to keep the banks, which are otherwise bankrupt, afloat by buying their junk using this money. Notice that due to constant bank credit inflation over many decades, the US dollar already lost its value, thus printing this money is not necessarily inflationary. This money merely keeps the dollar low which otherwise would be much higher than where it is today.
You may think deflation is not a threat now. After all FED has printed money and injected into the economy, right? Not exactly. There is not enough political will to print money when economy seems to be OK. But the will to print appears AFTER deflation hits. In a deflationary crash, even though FED makes credit easier, it is hard to turn the boat around due to the following reasons:
1. Lenders (banks) do not want to lend because they think they may not get their money back. This is because the money supply is shrinking rapidly. All prices around you were based on inflated bank credit. People borrowed and bought things and inflated prices along with salaries. It is very possible that all prices and salaries can be cut in half if the money supply shrinks 50%. Then it will be very hard to pay back a fixed rate loan.
2. Borrowers do not want to borrow because they think they may not be able to pay it back. This is normal because people see job cuts, companies cut costs, prices fall, so how can they be sure that they will make same salary in the future to pay back what they owe.
3. For price inflation to happen, people must have alot of money to chase too few products. What we have now is the opposite. We have wage reduction. We have high debt levels. We have excess capacity producing too many products. The supply exceeds the demand. The prices will fall, not go up. All companies are selling less, good results are just a result of cost cutting. When one company does it, it is good. But when all companies do it, cost cutting is detrimental to the economy. Earnings will go lower. Imagine an IT company produces software and hardware, but cuts costs: layoff workers, freeze salaries, stop investments. Their customer is a bank. If the bank cuts costs what will they do? They will say: Hey we are not buying new software from this IT company this year. We will run with fixer upper systems we have, sorry. This mentality will effect everyone's earnings! It may sound good for the bank, but it is bad for the IT guy. There is a chain reaction.
Almost all of the money supply in the economy is in terms of bank credit. This monetary system is prone to a deflationary crash. There is a herd effect in the population. People borrow and spend altogether and they stop borrowing altogether. This creates cycles like kontradiev wave. The herd effect causes great booms and great busts. This is explained in Conquer the Crash.
Conquer the Crash foresaw the financial crisis back in 2002 and explained in detail how it would unfold. It is like a history book about the future. Must read.
From a long term investing perspective, it is imperative that we the investors time the market and allocate our assets accordingly to avoid the devastating effects of a deflationary collapse.
If inflation is a quiet thief, then deflation is an armed burglar. You wouldn't invite either into your home, yet chances are that one of the two is stealing your money right now.
Elliott Wave International, the world's largest market forecasting firm, has just released a free report that reveals which of these threats you should prepare for right now.
The free 8-page report is adapted from Bob Prechter's New York Times best-seller, Conquer the Crash, which was published far before the latest headlines warned of inflationary and deflationary dangers.
With 2008 - 2011 consumer prices plunging at a record rate not seen in more than 6 decades, now is hardly the time to ignore Prechter's prescient message of how to survive and prosper in the today's market environment.

By Elliott Wave International
Telegraph.go.uk, May 26, 2010: "US money supply plunges at 1930s pace
The M3 money supply in the U.S. is contracting at an accelerating rate that now matches the average decline seen from 1929 to 1933, despite near zero interest rates and the biggest fiscal blitz in history."
Deflation is suddenly in the news again. It's a good moment to catch up on a few definitions, as well as strategies on how to beat this rare economic condition.
And who better to ask than EWI's president Robert Prechter? He predicted the first wave of deflation in the 2007-2009 "credit crunch" and has written on this topic extensively.
We've put together a great free resource for our Club EWI members: a 63-page "Deflation Survival Guide eBook," Prechters most important deflation essays. Enjoy this excerpt and for details on how to read the eBook in full free, look below.
What Makes Deflation Likely Today?
Following the Great Depression, the Fed and the U.S. government embarked on a program
both of increasing the creation of new money and credit and of fostering the confidence of lenders and borrowers so as to facilitate the expansion of credit. These policies both accommodated and encouraged the expansionary trend of the Teens and 1920s, which ended in bust, and the far larger expansionary trend that began in 1932 and which has accelerated over the past half-century. Other governments and central banks have followed similar policies. The International Monetary Fund, the World Bank and similar institutions, funded mostly by the U.S. taxpayer, have extended immense credit around the globe.
Their policies have supported nearly continuous worldwide inflation, particularly over the past thirty years. As a result, the global financial system is gorged with non-self-liquidating credit. Conventional economists excuse and praise this system under the erroneous belief that expanding money and credit promotes economic growth, which is terribly false. It appears to do so for a while, but in the long run, the swollen mass of debt collapses of its own weight, which is deflation, and destroys the economy. A devastated economy, moreover, encourages radical politics, which is even worse.
The value of credit that has been extended worldwide is unprecedented. Worse, most of this debt is the non-self-liquidating type. Much of it comprises loans to governments, investment loans for buying stock and real estate, and loans for everyday consumer items and services, none of which has any production tied to it. Even a lot of corporate debt is non-self-liquidating, since so much of corporate activity these days is related to finance rather than production.
Figure above is a stunning picture of the credit expansion of wave V of the 1920s (beginning the year that Congress authorized the Fed), which ended in a bust, and of wave V in the 1980s-1990s, which is even bigger.
it has been the biggest credit expansion in history by a huge margin. Coextensively, not only is there a threat of deflation, but there is also the threat of the biggest deflation in history by a huge margin.

NEW CASTLE — A New Castle man remains hospitalized after his vehicle struck another Friday morning.
A spokeswoman for St. Elizabeth Health Center in Youngstown said yesterday that Robert J. Kennedy, 73, was still in the facility's surgical intensive care unit.
State police said Kennedy was southbound on Mount Air Road, North Beaver Township, about 10 a.m. when he crossed the center line and collided head-on with a pickup truck driven by Robert E. Smith, 34, of Beaver Falls.
Smith, who was northbound, told police he had seen the oncoming car and attempted to steer to the right but could not avoid the collision. Police said Kennedy's front bumper hit the front of the truck and his car came to rest sideways across both lanes of traffic.
Police said Kennedy was not wearing a seat belt. Officers said Smith and his three passengers — ages 13, 12 and 9 — were wearing seat belts and did not report injuries.
Police were assisted by North Beaver Volunteer Fire Department, Noga Ambulance and the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation.

Toting ice chests and picnic lunches, dedicated parents and supporters swarmed into race areas early Saturday in Glen Helen for the Inland Empire Cross-Country Challenge.
Teams from Murrieta Mesa, Vista Murrieta, Chaparral, Temecula Valley, Murrieta Valley and Great Oak traveled to the 12th annual invitational.
The event was divided into three challenges: one for Small Schools (CIF Divisions 4 and 5), another for Medium Schools (CIF Divisions 2 and 3), and the last for Large Schools (CIF Division 1). It was also broken down into Riverside County schools, San Bernardino County schools and an over-all combined counties category.
Races for were also divided into Boys & Girls, Freshmen, Junior Varsity and Varsity levels.
The Sweepstakes Race had schools in each county competing head-to-head for county titles, as well as for overall Inland Empire Championship titles.
Races began at 7:45 a.m. and ended at 11:30 a.m.
The boys varsity team form Vista Murrieta High School captured the Riverside County and Overall Sweepstakes championships.
The girl's varsity team from Great Oak High School managed the same feat, capturing both championships.
Runners were inspired by a guest appearance from Brenda Martinez, a Rancho Cucamonga High School and University of California Riverside graduate, three-time All-American who currently holds the title of No. 1 women's miler.
It was a homecoming of sorts for Martinez, who competed in the event as a high school runner.
Martinez signed autographs and awarded trophies to the winning teams.

Off We Go…
Into the wild, blue yonder…rising high, into the sun. That's sort of the way you feel as you go up and over the three passes that get you from the coast to the inland valley.
We pulled the trigger half a day early and left after noon. A couple of hours found us in Weaverville, gateway to the Trinity Alps and a place we've been many times, mostly for swim meets, but a few cross countries as well. Wednesday is Farmer's Market day in W'ville so we stopped (we should have a bumper sticker on the trailer…We stop for Farmer's Markets).
There were beautiful peaches…a couple for breakfast.
Then back on the road.
Over Buckhorn Summit and down into Redding, it gets to be 93 degrees before you know it. Found the RV park, set up, made drinks and dinner and then discovered…Lassen, at the end of the driveway.
What a wonderful country.

End of life: Sadly, Dirigible is being retired soon. Check out our new project, PythonAnywhere
Dirigible is a programmable cloud spreadsheet. It frees your spreadsheets from the limitations of your desktop computer's processor, making it easy to build analytical models that run quickly on our grid of server computers.
Build your numerical models in a spreadsheet grid on a web page. As well as traditional spreadsheet formulae, you can put Python code in each cell, so a cell can hold not just numbers or text, but objects, lists, or even references to functions. If you want to change the way the spreadsheet is recalculated — by writing your own functions to call from your formulae, by importing new modules, like NumPy or SciPy, or even by running the formulae multiple times until you reach a goal — there's a code editor right there in the page to let you do that.
Once you're happy with your spreadsheet, perhaps you want to access it from other web pages? All Dirigible spreadsheets can have an associated JSON URL, which you can use to access their data from your own sites, or to call them with parameters to write a back-end for your site with minimal coding.
Or if you prefer, you can access your spreadsheet from other Dirigible sheets. Imagine writing a model in one sheet to work out the price of a financial instrument, and then writing another sheet that uses 100 computers for a few seconds to price up a portfolio of hundreds of them.
Dirigible is now in beta; you can sign up here.

For Mineral Wells Lady Rams head volleyball coach Taylor Eggleston, it is all about "the mesh" as her team prepares to finish the first week of practice with a pair of road scrimmages.
The Lady Rams will scrimmage in Fort Worth at Western Hills High School today, and on Saturday will hop back on the bus and travel to Glen Rose for a practice match.
Eggleston begins the season in great shape experience wise as she welcomes nine returning varsity players and two tall move ins – sisters Sydney Shelstead, a senior who stands 6-1, and Kennedy Shelstead, a 5-11 sophomore – who transfered from Krum when their father, Edward, took the MWHS head girls basketball coaching position.
Add 5-10 hitter Shay Douglas, who transferred from Millsap halfway through the school year last year, and Eggleston has a variety of combinations to choose from up front.

Denise Richards "singing" Take Me Out To The Ballgame in the seventh-inning stretch at Wrigley Field on Friday: [youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S77mIxm75PA] If the Cubs are going to keep...
Oh. Dear. GOD. If you were on the fence about Rutgers joining the Big Ten this should settle matters for you. It's damn near impossible to explain this, other than to say that if Big Ten Expansion results in THIS joining the Big Ten it will be a failure. A failure mirrored only by Marxism, Flock of Seagulls and Waterworld. You have been warned. Oh, and ONLY RUTGERS GOT JERSEY POWER. It will never leave your skull. Damn you Orson.
I know this is old, but it's so darn funny. My favorites are the cameos by Renaldo Balkman and Johan Petro. By the way, how tall is Steve Hess? He seemed completely towered by the 6'3" Chauncey Billups.

An overnight burglary of a Toms River church took more than $1,000 in a safe, after a suspect entered through a window, police said.
The Church of the Nazarene, , was burglarized sometime Sunday night into Monday morning, said Toms River Police Chief Michael Mastronardy.
The police chief said the suspect entered through a window, removing an air conditioner.
"Typically you'd unscrew the air conditioner from its brackets with a screwdriver and climb in," Mastronardy said. "We do not have any suspect info or information on why the church was targeted."
He said the money wasn't taken from a collection box and was instead from a safe in the office.
It's unknown whether the burglary was the handiwork of one or multiple suspects, Mastronardy said.
"Right now this is an open investigation," he said. "We're encouraging anyone to call in news tips who may have seen anything."
The brickface church fronts Route 37 West between Deer Chase Manor and the Oak Ridge Estates in Toms River.
Toms River Officer Frank Bopp, Detective Mark Bajada and the Ocean County Sheriffs Office are handling the investigation.
Anyone with information is asked to call Toms River Capt. Bruce Burgess 732-349-0150 ext. 1200.

President Carter Signing the National Energy Bills
November 09, 1978
Source: National Archives
On November 9, 1978, President Jimmy Carter signed the National Energy Bills, which deregulated the prices of oil and natural gas. The deregulation was predicted to increase energy supply and, consequently, lower prices. However, soon after the President signed the bill, OPEC, the oil cartel, more than doubled oil prices, which caused a significant economic downturn.

In spite of its reputation as Sin City, a Las Vegas family vacation can be fun for all generations. Because it is a fairly major air hub, other vacations can often be extended with a few days in Las Vegas. With parents and grandparents along to switch off babysitting, the adults can take in a show or two and visit the casinos without worrying about child care.
Two Possible Drawbacks
From a grandparent's point of view, Las Vegas has two drawbacks. The first is the distance. It can be quite a trek from one attraction to the other. Given the monolithic size of the casinos and the clear desert air, distances are deceiving. Don't overestimate the amount of ground you'll be able to travel on foot. You can take advantage of the monorail that runs up and down the Strip and the double-decker Deuce bus service to downtown, but getting from your hotel room to a stop can still be quite a hike.
The second drawback is the heat during the summer, which may be the only time that school-age grandchildren are available for travel. Drink lots of water, and use sunscreen liberally, especially if you are going to one of Vegas' beautiful hotel pools.
Free Family Attractions
Other than hanging out at the pool, there are some attractions that are completely free. These include:
- Volcano eruption at the Mirage
- Dancing waters at the Bellagio
- The Fremont Street Experience, a music and light show in the downtown area
- Talking statues at the Forum Shops at Caesar's Palace
- Aquarium and rain forest at the Mirage
- Circus acts at Circus Circus
- Hand-blown glass flowers covering the ceiling at the Bellagio
Some Recent Changes
The much-loved pirate show at Treasure Island has morphed into the Sirens of Treasure Island, aimed at adults rather than children. The white tiger exhibit at the Mirage, which used to be free, has been moved into Siegfried and Roy's Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat, which is not free.
Not Free But Possibly Worth It
These child-friendly activities aren't free but can be worth the cost of a ticket, depending upon the ages and tastes of your grandchildren. Ticket prices change often:
- Siegfried and Roy's Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat at the Mirage ($19.95 down)
- The roller coaster at New York New York ($14.00)
- Adventuredome theme park at Circus Circus ($27.95 down)
- Shark Reef Aquarium at Mandalay Bay ($18.00 down)
- Las Vegas Spring Preserve ($18.95 down)
- Lied Discovery Children's Museum ($8.50 down)
In addition to these attractions, which have fixed ticket prices, children will enjoy visiting one of the many arcades in Las Vegas. Some magic shows are kid-friendly.
Las Vegas Side Trips
Vegas is also a great hub for side trips. Tour the Hoover Dam or the Wild West town of Oatman. The petroglyphs at Grapevine Canyon make for an interesting stop, and driving historic Route 66 is also a option.
The Grand Canyon and the canyon parks of Utah are worthy of more than a day trip. Consider adding a stay at one of these iconic destinations. Zion and Bryce National Parks offer fantastic and colorful rock formations. In the summer, Utah canyons are also fiercely hot. The higher altitude of the Grand Canyon makes it a cooler choice, as long as you don't descend into the canyon. It's especially worthwhile if you take the trouble to get to the more remote and less-visited North Rim.
Other Nevada Options for Family Vacations
Laughlin and Reno-Tahoe offer Vegas-type amenities on a smaller scale that may be suitable for some families.
Laughlin is located in the bottom point of Nevada. It offers about ten casino hotels along the Colorado River. A water taxi transports guests from one attraction to another for the bargain price of $4 a trip. Many hotels have beach areas alongside the Colorado, which is amazingly icy. Ducks and raccoons can be sighted along the river, and carp swim lazily around the boat docks. The town offers bowling, a movie theater, golf, a classic car museum and jet ski rental. Diners can choose from chain restaurants, a few independents and the casino dining options. The casinos offer some shows. Laughlin is nothing like Las Vegas in size and variety, but there is plenty to do to fill up a few leisurely days, and it may actually be a better choice than Vegas for less-active grandparents and younger children.
The Reno/Tahoe area is noted for its natural beauty and outdoor activities. There's an uncommon profusion of special events in the area, and the Reno/Tahoe area is building a reputation as a center for the arts. For those seeking the Las Vegas vibe, there are around a dozen casinos in the Reno/Sparks area and another ten or so in Lake Tahoe. The casinos offer a nice variety of rooms, shows, restaurants and amenities. For a combination of natural adventure, culture and nightlife, the Reno/Tahoe area is an excellent choice.

The body of a "big fan" of Paula Adbul was found dead near the American Idol judge's house last night. The woman, Paula Goodspeed, reportedly died of a drug overdose in her car, which was parked outside Abdul's Los Angeles home. Making the situation even stranger is Goodspeed's own American Idol past: Goodspeed auditioned for the show back in 2006, and even had her own segment during the tryout phase. An artist, Goodspeed said she made "life-size drawings of Paula" before auditioning with "Proud Mary." Abdul ultimately voted "No" with the rest of the panel. Abdul was not home during the time of the death.

Dear national media: Arizona and Arizona State are two completely different schools
Originally published: Mar 24, 2014 - 3:42 pm
All too often it seems like national media types get the Arizona State Sun Devils and University of Arizona Wildcats mixed up.
Be it logos, conversations or whatever, members of the national media seem to mix the schools up quite a bit.
It's offensive to anyone who attended either school, as most have a disdain for the other.
So, imagine the reaction when, on Twitter, @MarchMadnessTV sent out the following tweet:
Oh boy.
As we all know, it will be the Arizona Wildcats taking on San Diego State, not the ASU Sun Devils. And when we say "we" we mean everyone but the folks over at @MarchMadnessTV, apparently.
Then their tweet led to this:
I think national media sees Arizona schools like this. In fairness, Sparkycat would be terrifying. #ForkDown pic.twitter.com/sBvtfMCaac— Josh Kelman (@JoshKelman) March 24, 2014
Curse you, @MarchMadnessTV. Curse you.

Brush Fire Prevention
In the last month there have been several brush fires. Monday, an elite team from the State Division of Forestry got a look at the next generation of technology for stopping the fires before they start. The wildfire mitigation team targets areas where brush fires can occur. The tractor machines get rid of trees with leaves and needles that can easily cause brush fires to spread.
"We can't get in there and get it stopped in the marshy areas," says Ray Sayer, Forest Ranger. "We are going to get burns underneath the ground and it would keep on going, where we can get a plow in, it's quiet a bit of help."
Wildfire experts are making sure they are getting rid of trees that will cause the wildfires, but doing it in an environmentally safe way. The state already have some of these machines, they have been using them for the last eight years to fight fires.

Details were sketchy Sunday afternoon, but authorities said a South Boston man was airlifted to Lynchburg General Hospital Saturday following a two-vehicle wreck that occurred at the intersection of Westside Drive and Sinai Road.
According to investigating Trooper D. H. Hess, Shawn Lee Jennings was operating a dirt bike when he failed to stop for a stop sign and came out of Westside Drive making a left turn onto Sinai Road into the path of a Ford Ranger driven by Sandra Whitlock of Vernon Hill.
The accident occurred at 4:45 p.m. Saturday, Hess said.
No other details were available at press time, and Hess said he expected to have a completed accident report Monday.

Facebook Guidance
Please Note
Disclaimer: This is EPA Guidance for how EPA uses Facebook. We have posted our guidance publicly in the spirit of collaboration. Other agencies and organizations may use social media differently.
Note: As of July 2011, we are no longer approving Facebook Pages for specific programs or projects. Instead, please share through EPA's main Facebook Page. This approach provides a single EPA face to the world, gets your info seen by tens of thousands of people on Facebook, and takes the burden off of you to post so frequently. We are, however, looking for geographically-specific accounts intended to interact with specific communities. In some cases, regional office-based accounts are the best we can do. But we especially encourage you to think at a more local level.
Note: Remember that your official activities on-line are subject to the ethics regulations Intranet as well as other federal and agency laws, policies and regulations. In addition, existing policies and guidance for accessibility Intranet, privacy, external site links, cookies, and writing style apply to social media tools as well.

What is Facebook?
Facebook provides EPA with a platform to share announcements, requests for feedback, questions, and links with an interested community, and also gives people a place to share with each other. Unlike a private Facebook "Profile," Facebook "Pages" permit people to become "fans" of (or, as of April 2010, to "like") our Page without our express approval. Our posts to our Pages appear on our fans' home Pages.
Note: Facebook Pages are different from Profiles; Facebook does not allow organizations like EPA to have a Profile; instead businesses and organizations use "Pages".
Why Use Facebook?
- There are more than 350 million people around the world with Facebook accounts — Facebook provides a broad reach
- Facebook allows people to comment on our posts and share things on our Page's wall
- Facebook allows us to reach out to people who use Facebook but may not engage the government in more formal, traditional ways
Getting Started
Facebook can be a complex, sometimes confusing system to use. The guidance below covers the basics, but you will need to experiment and explore to truly learn your way around. Please contribute comments and suggestions to this guidance and include your best practices as a member of the Facebook community.
Note: We're not creating new program-based Facebook accounts anymore. Instead, we recommend that offices work with OWC to have their messages posted on the main EPA Facebook page and other already established EPA Facebook pages. Contact Jessica Orquina (email@example.com) for more information. Requests for Facebook accounts should be reviewed and approved by OWC before you begin posting content. Your content coordinator should contact Jessica Orquina in the Office of Web Communications (OWC) for approval of a Facebook account.
Get approval from
- Your manager; and
- Your content coordinator (see Web Council Members and Other Key Web Contacts to find your content coordinator); and
- OWC (your content coordinator will get this for you).
Develop your strategy
- What is your goal?
- What are you trying to do?
- What value do you offer to the Facebook community?
- What are the needs and real "pains" of those you're trying to reach? What do you have to offer them?
- Do you have the resources and expertise to engage your community and maintain your Facebook Page?
- What will they say about their experience with you today and tomorrow?
What can you use Facebook for?
- Most importantly, community interaction
- Provide overview of your project
- Less formal communications than news releases or fact sheets
- Web site and contact information
- Videos, photos, widgets, applications, etc.
- RSS feeds from news releases, blogs, etc.
- Press releases and other news
Set up and Configure your Facebook Page
Set up your page
The features and management tools for Facebook Pages are constantly evolving. OWC can provide the current standard settings for various options. To get the latest information from Facebook about creating, setting up, and managing a Facebook page please review these resources:
On the editing page, return to the first "Settings" section and change "Published Status" to "Published (publicly visible)". You may change this setting back to "Unpublished" later if you need to.
Remove ads
As soon as you've published, remove third-party ads from the right sidebar by sending an email to firstname.lastname@example.com. In the email:
- Provide your Page's URL
- State that it's a federal government page
- Ask them to remove the ads
Note: Facebook's own ads will still appear.
Get a Facebook Username (Short URL)
Once you have 25 fans, get a short, easy-to-remember URL
- Go to the Facebook usernames Exit page. You'll see a link "Set a username for your Pages" that lets you set a username for your page. Help is available at Facebook Web Addresses for Pages — Facebook Help Center Exit.
- Use the naming convention "epaXYZ" where "XYZ" describes your topic. Keep it simple and logical. For example: http://www.facebook.com/epapick5 Exit
Promote and Manage your Page
Promote your page
You can't friend someone the way you can from a Facebook Profile. People can elect to become fans of your Page, but only if they know about it.
- Identify contacts from your personal Profile who are business connections, working in a related field, or would otherwise benefit from the information your Region or Program provides, and invite them to become a fan of the Page. Send a short note explaining what you want to offer from the Page (remember, people are thinking "what's in it for me?") and include a link to the Page.
- Write a blog post for EPA's blog, Greenversations, talking about what you plan to do with your Facebook Page (contact your Web Council representative to discuss).
- Promote your Page everywhere you're online.
- Spread the word on Twitter if you're there.
- Send out an email notification, add a link to your email signature, or put the address on your business cards.
Note: It will take time to build your fan base; keep sending out invites and promoting your Page.
Manage your Page
- Be both strategic and tactical: plan your content to coincide with other outreach, but also post when you have something to say.
- Post updates weekly or more frequently. Share links, photos, videos, and other information. It's best to provide links to EPA's web site with each update, but if appropriate, also link to other sites per normal external link procedures.
- Use informal language and contractions, and first-person pronouns, and write as if you're talking to a friend, not writing a news release.
- No: "EPA announces new program to provide benefits to"
- Yes: "Hey, sign up to get benefits! We just started a new program."
- No: "EPA will be providing individuals with …"
- Yes: "We'll give you …"
- Encourage discussion among fans by asking questions. Make sure the questions are open ended to avoid Paperwork Reduction Act concerns.
- Ask for your community's thoughts, experiences, and stories.
- Listen to what they're saying and respond as appropriate. For more guidance on how to respond, please see Representing EPA Online Using Social Media.
- Start discussions using the Discussion area of your Page.
- Embed additional content, such as applications, widgets, and RSS feeds.
- Search Facebook for related pages and add them to your Page's favorites, as appropriate. Post to their wall, and advertise your Page there from time to time.
- Link your Facebook Page to your Twitter account for automatic cross-posting.
Moderate Comments and Fan Posts
Review comments and other fan content like posts, photos, and videos against the comment policy. See Using the EPA Comment Policy for more details.
Never simply delete comments and other fan-generated content
If content does not meet the comment policy, retain the entire item and as much detail as possible (fan name, the date and time of posting, etc.) in an offline format. For example, comments can be stored in a simple Word document. Store multimedia content in its native format and note the details in the same Word document. Capture enough about the post and the response so that someone reading about it later gets the context. Also note the reason the content did not meet the comment policy. Then delete it from your Page.
For more on comments and how to document unapproved comments, refer to Using the EPA Comment Policy.
Follow Federal Requirements
Section 508
Social Media tools, like other web-based applications, whether inside the EPA network or in the cloud (public web), must make every effort to comply with Section 508 and other policies on accessibility, privacy and record keeping. In some instances it's not possible to redesign a system to be accessible, but it's usually possible to link back to equivalent information on epa.gov. For specific questions or help on accessibility, please contact Amanda Sweda of the Office of Environmental Information.
- Do not delete your own content, as it is a federal record subject to FOIA and legal discovery. Refer to the Moderate Comments section on how to handle fan-generated content.
- As of February 2010, you do not need to do anything special to preserve records; all posts are stored on Facebook. Further guidance will be developed.
Metrics and Security
Review Facebook metrics via the "Insights" link in the left sidebar (visible only to Page admins). Tracking metrics allows you to:
- understand how useful the Page is to your community
- assess the effectiveness of the Page vs. other outreach mechanisms
- justify investment in the Page or determine you should stop using it (contact OWC (firstname.lastname@example.com) to ensure proper records are kept if so)
- know when you reach saturation (if activity levels off)
- figure out when to change how to manage it
Keep it secure. Since Facebook is outside EPA's control, security risks could arise from using certain applications or features. Proper security practices will be discussed by the Facebook community of practice (communities of practice are made up of agency Facebook administrators). If you know of specific problems and solutions, please provide guidance for this section.
Further options - fine tune and add features
If you experiment with this feature, please contribute guidance to Jessica Orquina.
Links, Notes, Photos, Videos, and other applications
If you try these, please contribute guidance on how to set them up and how best to use them.
Live streaming video

Grow With Me Childcare & Preschool owner Jennifer Schmaderer is cited after alleged abuse goes ignored.
The Nebraska Department of Health & Human Services put Schmaderer's license on probation after an investigation.
The investigation surrounds former Grow With Me employee, Sarah Cullen. In a report, current employees and former employees told DHHS investigators they witnessed Cullen abuse children. The employees said they reported the abuse to Schmaderer, but nothing was done.
Investigators confirmed Schmaderer was told of the abuse. The report said Schmaderer, "did not document any incidents involving Cullen or report such incidents to law enforcement and/or the child abuse/neglect hotline because there were no injuries and no marks. Schmaderer stated she did not feel that is was child abuse."
Cullen was fired by Schmaderer in 2013, the report said, "Schmaderer stated Cullen was fired for being too rough with the kids and for stealing from the child care."
After being fired from Grow With Me, Cullen became a nanny of 4 month-old Cash Bell. Under Cullen's care, Bell died and doctor's said the cause of death was from significant head trauma.
Cullen was charged with child abuse resulting in death. That case is still ongoing.
Grow With Me and Schmaderer will remain on probation until September 24, 2014.

The German Generals who survived Hitler's Reich talk over World War II with Capt. Liddell Hart, noted British miltary strategist and writer. They speak as professional soldiers to a man they know and respect. For the first time, answers are revealed to many questions raised during the war. Was Hitler the genius of strategy he seemed to be at first? Why did his Generals never overthrow him? Why did Hitler allow the Dunkirk evacuation? Current interest, of course, focuses on the German Generals' opinion of the Red Army as a fighting force. What did the Russians look like from the German side? How did we look? And what are the advantages and disadvantages under which dictator-controlled armies fight? In vivid, non-technical language, Capt. Liddell Hart reports these interviews and evaluates the vital military lessons of World War II.

Gum Disease can affect more than just our oral health. The American Dental Association states, There is evidence that bacteria in the mouth which are associated with gum disease may be linked to heart disease, artery blockages and stroke.
The following tips can help you to prevent gum disease:
Difficulty: Easy
Time Required: Daily Routine
Here's How:
- Brush your teeth properly twice a day. Brushing your teeth thoroughly removes plaque from the surface before it hardens into calculus.
- Use a fluoride toothpaste. Using a toothpaste with fluoride helps to prevent decay.
- Floss your teeth daily. Flossing is the only way to remove plaque from in between your teeth that a toothbrush cant reach.
- Use a mouth rinse. An antimicrobial mouth rinse can provide extra help in controlling plaque. Listerine is a good choice and has been approved by the American Dental Association.
- Visit your dentist for regular check ups. Visiting your dentist on a regular basis is the best way to make sure that your teeth and gums stay healthy.

The Italian-style fruitcake known as panettone is an important part of the Christmas celebration in many parts of Latin America. Panettones are often given as gifts, to be enjoyed on Christmas Eve with hot chocolate. There are many brands of commercial panettones available, most of which are flavored with citrus and filled with dried fruit. Chocolate chip or chocolate panettones (chocottones) are also popular.Panettone has a rich, brioche-like texture and it keeps well, so it's perfect for gifting.Traditional recipes for panettone involve lots of kneading and several long proofing sessions, as the dough is so full of butter and eggs that it rises very slowly. The flavor develops during the extended rising periods. The bread machine ccmes in very handy here, handling the bulk of the kneading and rising stages using the dough cycle.
Prep Time: 12 minutes
Cook Time: 1 hour
Total Time: 1 hour, 12 minutes
Yield: 1 panettone
- 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 cup bread flour
- 2/3 - 3/4 cups sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoons bread machine rapid rise yeast
- 3 eggs
- 2 egg yolks (reserve whites for egg wash)
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1/2 teaspoon rum flavoring
- 1/2 teaspoon orange extract
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
- 1 tablespoon orange juice
- 10 tablespoons butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons sour dough starter (optional)
- Zest from 1 orange
- Zest from 1 lemon
- 1 cup mixed dried fruits such as dried cranberries, golden raisins, raisins, dried pineapple, etc.
- 1/2 cup pisco, rum, or brandy
- 1/2 cup additional (optional) mix-ins such as chopped nuts, candied orange peel, chocolate chips
- _____
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- 1 paper panettone mold (or baking pan with high sides), about 6 inches in diameter and 4 inches high
- Place the dried fruit in a heat proof bowl and pour 1/2 cup of boiling water over the fruit. Let fruit soak for 10 minutes, then drain the water. Pour 1/2 cup pisco, rum or brandy over the fruit and let fruit soak in the alcohol until ready to use.
- Whisk together all of the dry ingredients, except for the yeast, and place them in the bread machine.
- Add the fruit zests, the eggs, the milk, the orange juice, the vanilla, the rum flavoring, and the orange and almond extracts to the machine. Cut the butter into 1/2 inch pieces and add to the machine.
- Add the yeast to the machine according to the manufacturer's directions (being careful not to let the yeast come in direct contact with the salt).
- Program the machine for the dough cycle, and press start. After the cycle is finished, leave the dough in the machine (with the machine turned off) for an additional 4-6 hours (or overnight). The dough should slowly rise until it is 2-3 times its original size.
- After the dough has risen, drain the dried fruit and add it to the dough, along with any other optional mix-ins. Add 2 tablespoons of additional flour, and set the machine to the dough cycle again. Let the cycle run through the kneading stage, then turn it off.
- Place the paper mold on a baking sheet. Transfer the dough from the bread machine to the baking mold. Brush the top of dough with melted butter. Place the dough in a warm place (such as a closed oven that is turned off) and let the dough rise for another 3-4 hours, or until the dough reaches the top of the mold.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Brush top of dough with egg white. Place dough in oven. After 5 minutes lower temperature to 250 degrees.
- Watch panettone carefully as it bakes. Bake for about 1 hour, or until bread feels hollow when tapped. Top bread lightly with foil if the top starts to brown.
- Remove from oven and let oool completely before slicing.

The Cullman Times
The Hanceville City Police Department recently pulled an officer working with a countywide drug task force back to the city's force, citing the need for an additional officer and a lack of manpower and funds. The officer was Hanceville's only member of CNET.
The Cullman Narcotics Enforcement Team (CNET) is comprised of officers from the Cullman County Sheriff's Office and Cullman City Police, and tackle the larger drug cases across the city and county. Hanceville Mayor Kenneth Nail said when he took office, they added their first officer to CNET to represent Hanceville, but because of their current budget, they had to bring him back.
"Unfortunately we had to pull the guy from CNET, but we are still working some drug-related cases here, made some arrests yesterday," Nail said. "It just got to the point that we had to pull our guy back to have the basics done. There's no way you can get that done with one guy per shift. When our revenue starts coming back, I'd love to put the officer back into CNET."
Nail said Hanceville service's are growing much faster than the revenue that is being produced, which is creating some growing pains across the city.
"Hanceville is very dynamic, hosting a college campus and a tourist attraction-being close to the Shrine, which causes an extra demand for police," Nail said. "So on top of doing daily calls, the police have to respond to the other stuff in our jurisdiction. Hanceville is just made up differently and can't really be compared to other places. The council is having to make some tough decisions to either cut services or find a way to bring in revenue. The public expects that when they make a 911 call, a police officer needs to arrive fairly quick, especially in our small town, so we can't afford to not have all of our guys right now."
Director of CNET Joey Cone said losing his 7th officer has hurt the team, but he understands the financial struggle.
"He was a great asset to the group, giving us an extra person to do our daily duties, so pulling him out hurt us," Cone said. "I understand they have budget restraints. Shortly after Mayor Nail took office was the first time that CNET had a Hanceville officer."
Cone said they will be unable to replace the officer with another county or city officer, leaving them with a team of six men — three from the city and three from the county.
"One man made a big difference," Cone said. "Last year we had almost 600 cases and we don't have the extra manpower to go out and do what we were doing. I understand that Hanceville is hurting, but we all are."

Hillary Rosen has sold out to the Obama apologist, Arianna Huffington, and her pro-Obama and anti-Clinton army. Medias bias has no limit to its reach, even when it is cloaked in sheep's clothing.
comment on a post Hillary Rosen: "I'm not a bargaining chip. I'm a Democrat." over 6 years ago
comment on a post The Truth About the Michelle Obama Tape over 6 years ago
If the quotation is as you have stated, it would be fairly easy to determine her intent. As a Harvard educated person herself I am going to assume if she wanted to say:
"Whitie do nothing about Jena?"
She would say it like this:
"Whitie did nothing about Jena"
"Whitie does nothing about Jena"
Because "Why'd he" is past tense and would fit with "do nothing" but not with "did nothing".
Thus, in this sentence (if she ever spoke this sentence) we can discern her intent. The "do" vs. "did" is the key word that will separate "Why'd he" vs. "Whitie"
We of course need to wait for the tape or other proof.

Sorry, I could not find a tool to search diaries before posting. Do you know if there is a search tool?
on a comment on HRC got a SD endorsement today! over 6 years ago
Do you have a double standard - for example should all of the SDs who originally came out for HRC and then switched to Obama meet with your disapproval or are you OK when the tables are turned?
comment on a post Virginia: Obama 49% McCain 42% over 6 years ago
on a comment on McCain Leads Obama in Virgina over 6 years ago
Jonathan Singer does those.
on a comment on McCain Leads Obama in Virgina over 6 years ago
Obama is not the nominee yet.
New poll from Virginia, bad for Obama
Regarding your signature, did you see this poll from today?
He is going to have to expand the EV map more than just holding the Kerry states like MI and WI. Clinton can get states not won by Kerry like Ohio, Florida, Arkansas, and Nevada.
Until and if HRC drops out, we still have a race and these polls are very important to Superdelegates and voters in the upcoming states.

Hi everyone,
I have been asked to investigate implementing a system that will allow our students to setup and maintain their own blogs on an internal web server (this is for September). We already have an IIS server setup running an intranet.
Just wondered if anyone had anything already in place or knew of anything out there that you could recommend :) We would obviously need multiple blogs running and have some kind of user management, ldap / AD support would be really useful too.
