Scuba BackpacksScuba backpacks are easily one of the most efficient ways to carry your gear. Not only can they fit all of your equipment, they're comfortable, convenient, and easy to carry. Nothing provides hands-free maneuvering around a crowded boat deck better than a scuba backpack. When traveling with a lot of gear, a large scuba backpack (5500 cubic inches or larger) is ideal. They are large enough to carry two sets of warm water gear OR a single set of gear plus all of the other clothes you might need for a trip. They're rugged and durable enough to be checked in as luggage, too, pulling double duty for a low price. For a more frigid destination, large scuba backpacks are also great for a set of cold water gear, such as a full drysuit or a thick wetsuit.For a lighter journey, a medium-sized scuba backpack (3000 to 6000 cubic inches) is fantastic for a single set of diving equipment, warm or cold. More compact and streamlined, a medium-sized scuba backpack can hold a surprising amount of gear and still stay sleek. A mesh scuba backpack is perfect for taking your gear to and from the dive site itself, with the added benefit of being able to rinse and even dry your gear without taking it out of the bag. Available at different sizes, each is well suited for a specific purpose. The mesh bags over 2500 cubic inches are a great option for carrying scuba gear, while the mesh bags under 2500 inches fit snorkeling equipment perfectly. When you don't have to worry about getting your gear wet, a smaller backpack or day pack is excellent for any accessories and clothing you may need on your trip. |
Scuba Roller BagsScuba Roller Bags are simply the most comfortable bag for traveling, whether down to the local site or when jetting off to an exotic destination. Built to carry heavy loads through tough conditions, scuba roller bags are as reliable as they are versatile. When the road ahead is smooth, the bag can be pulled along easily with one hand while you allow the wheels to do all the work. When the going gets tough, many scuba roller bags have handles so they can be lugged over medium terrain like a duffel bag. Some scuba roller bags even come complete with hidden stowable shoulder straps that allow you to transform your roller bag into a backpack, saving you from losing your gear en route to even the most hard-to-reach dive site. |
Scuba Duffel BagsScuba Duffels are the most popular bags out there, both for their reasonable cost and for their expansive storage capabilities. They're easy to carry with wide, comfortable straps, and can fit anywhere you need them to thanks to their non-rigid shape. Available in a plethora of sizes and materials, there's a scuba duffel bag out there that fits anyone's needs. Mesh duffel bags are ideal for transporting gear to the dive site, with the added bonus of allowing you to rinse your gear right through the bag. The wet/dry duffel gives the diver the advantage of two bags in one, keeping your wet and dry goods sequestered from each other without any interaction that could ruin a perfect trip. There are also scuba duffels that come fitted with wheels, too, combining the convenience of a roller bag with the durability and versatility of a standard scuba duffel bag. |
Regulator and Specialty BagsRegulator bags are designed to keep your regulator safe and sound during travel, or even during storage, proving themselves to be a must-have for any diver. Laced with shock-resistant padding, regulator bags can also be used to protect dive computers, gauges, octos, or even a second regulator while on the road. When carrying camera equipment, camera bags keep your expensive and sensitive gear organized, safe, and easily accessible so you never miss a shot. Some bags even have wet and dry spaces for maximum convenience and protection. There are specialty bags for every conceivable piece of gear, including bags for mobile phones, radios, masks, snorkels, weights, fins, wallets and even spearguns. See less |

Postage on the book for any distance is but 12 cents. A person remitting to the Publisher $1, post-paid, can have two copies sent by mail.

RECOMMENDATIONS.Mr. Garrison, disagreeing to its conclusions on the ground that the words of the Constitution do not fully express the intentions of its authors, yet says:—"His logic may be faultless, as a merely legal effort." "We admit Mr. Spooner's reasoning to be ingenious—perhaps, as an effort of logic, unanswerable." "It impresses us as the production of a mind equally honest and acute." "Its ability, and the importance of the subject on which it treats, will doubtless secure for it a wide circulation and a careful perusal." Mr. Joshua Leavitt says:—"It is unanswerable. There will never be an honest attempt to answer it. Neither priest nor politician, lawyer nor judge, will ever dare undertake to sunder that iron-linked chain of argument, which runs straight through this book from beginning to end." Mr. Gerrit Smith, in a letter to the Liberty Press, (Utica,) says:—"It is admirable, I warmly commend it to you and your readers." "High as were my opinions of his ability, they are higher now that I have read his argument in favor of his position that there is no legal or constitutional slavery in this nation." Mr. N. P. Rogers, agreeing with some of its positions, and disagreeing with others, says:—"It is a splendid essay. If the talent laid out in it were laid out in the bar, it would make the author distinguished and rich." "This essay should give the author a name at the Boston bar. It will at the bar of posterity." Samuel E. Sewall, Esq., says:—"It merits general attention, not merely from the importance of the subject, but from the masterly manner in which it is handled." "It everywhere overflows with thought." "We regard it as a great arsenal of legal weapons to be used in the great contest between liberty and slavery." "I hope it will receive the widest circulation." J. Fulton, Jr., (Penn.,) says:—"Now that I have read it, I feel bound to say that it is the most clear and luminous production that I have ever read on the subject. It begins without a line of preface, and ends without a word of apology. It is a solid mass of the most brilliant argument, unbroken, as it seems to me, by a single flaw, and treads down as dust everything which has preceded it upon that subject. Let every friend of the slave read the work without delay. I believe it is destined to give a new phase to our struggle." Richard Hildreth, Esq., says:—"No one can deny to the present work the merit of great ability and great learning." "If anybody wishes to see this argument handled in a masterly manner, with great clearness and plainness, and an array of constitutional learning, which, in the hands of most lawyers, would have expanded into at least three royal octavos, we commend them to Mr. Spooner's modest pamphlet of one hundred and fifty-six pages." Elihu Burritt says:—"It evinces a depth of legal erudition, which would do honor to the first jurist of the age." The True American, (Cortland county, N. Y.,) says:—"It is an imperishable and triumphant work." "A law argument that would add to the fame of the most famed jurist, living or dead." The Bangor Gazette says:—"It is indeed a masterly argument." "No one, unprejudiced, who has supposed that that instrument (the Constitution) contained guarantees of slavery, or who has had doubts upon the point, can rise from the perusal without feeling relieved from the supposition that our great national charter is one of slavery and not of freedom. And no lawyer can read it without admiring, besides its other great excellences, the clearness of its style, and its logical precision." The Hampshire Herald (Northampton) says:—"It is worthy the most gifted intellect in the country." The Worcester County Gazette says:—"Mr. Spooner, we think, has clearly shown that it (slavery) has no constitutional foundation." The Liberty Press, (Utica,) says:—"The author labors to show, and does show, that slavery in this country is unconstitutional, and unsustained by law, either state or federal." The Granite Freeman says:—"We wish every voter in the Union could have the opportunity to read this magnificent argument. We should hear no more, after that, of the 'compromises of the Constitution' as an argument to close the lips and palsy the hands of those who abhor slavery and labor for its removal." The Charter Oak says:—"Of its rare merit as a controversial argument, it is superfluous to speak. It may, in fact, be regarded as unanswerable, and we are persuaded that its general circulation would give a new aspect to the Anti-Slavery cause, by exploding the popular, but mistaken notion, that slavery is somehow entrenched behind the Constitution." The Albany Patriot says:—"This effort of Mr. Spooner is a remarkable one in many respects. It is unrivalled in the simplicity, clearness and force of style with which it is executed. The argument is original, steel-ribbed, and triumphant. It bears down all opposition. Pettifogging, black-letter dullness and pedantry, special pleading and demagogism, all retire before it. If every lawyer in the country could have it put into his hands, and be induced to study it, as he does his brief, it would alone overthrow slavery. There is moral force enough in it for that purpose." The Chronotype calls it "One of the most magnificent constitutional arguments ever produced in any country." "It needs such a work as Mr. Spooner's on constitutional law to make the Constitution of the least value to us as a shield of rights." The Liberty Gazette (Burlington, Vt.) says:—"This work cannot be too highly praised, or too extensively circulated. Its reasoning is conclusive, and no one can read it without being convinced that the Constitution, instead of being the friend and protector of slavery, is a purely Anti-Slavery document." The Indiana Freeman says:—"Every Abolitionist should have this admirable work, and keep it in constant circulation among his neighbors." The Worcester Ægis says:—"This work is one of the ablest, perhaps the ablest review of all the arguments, pro and con, upon the subject of slavery, that has yet emanated from the American press. No one who feels the least interest whatever in this great question should fail to possess himself of a copy." |

Sometimes there's a game with so much fantasy goodness, a game with so many notable nights for so many fantasy-relevant stars, that it's almost overwhelming to choose which players to single out. Last night, the Braves came back from 9 runs down to complete their biggest comeback since 1987 and pull within 2 1/2 of the first place Nats, winning the game 11-10.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Paul Janish
Yesterday, Shane Victorino went 4-for-5, 4 RBIs, 5 Runs scored and his 6th homer. For anyone who read the roundups last year, you're probably wondering where my Victorino love went. Last year, Victorino was my '09 Mark Reynolds. I saw good value in Victorino last year and pushed him on everyone. Unfortunately, he met expectations, performed well, his value skyrocketed and I don't have him on any team this year. This will be the story next year when I rarely mention Reynolds. I won't own him because he'll be drafted too high in 2010. Alas, the story of the fantasy baseball 'pert. Your loves are forever changing. One year Jeremy Guthrie, the next year Wandy Rodriguez. Behind the 'stache lies a fickle man! But I still gots love for Victorino. My only concern is how low his steals are this year. Sitting — literally — on 13 steals. So run. You're The Flying Hawaiian for a reason, not The Taro Masher, poi! Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:
Ryan Howard – The Phils scored 22 runs. Howard went 1-for-4, no Runs and one RBI. Ticker Tease!
Please, blog, may I have some more?

Cow Parade
Cow Parade figurines, produced by Westland Giftware, are based on a unique art exhibit that has been held in many cities since 2000. Cow Parade consists of life-sized fibreglass cows whimsically painted and decorated by professional and amateur artists.
This exhibit has been shown in Chicago, New York, Stamford (Connecticut), West Orange (New Jersey), Kansas City, Houston, San Antonio, London, Las Vegas, and Portland (Oregon). Upcoming shows are scheduled for Auckland (New Zealand), Ireland, Atlanta, West Hartford (Connecticut), Montivideo (Uruguay), and Brussels. At the end of each auction, many of the cows are auctioned, with the proceeds going to charity. Millions of dollars have been raised.
These beautiful and hilarious replica figurines have captured the essence of the original full-sized cows displayed in the exhibits. Handcrafted either in glazed ceramic or resin, these figurines display the quality and attention to detail for which Westland is noted.Some of the cows reflect the area in which the show was held--e.g., Beefeater and Bovingham Palace from the London show. Others reflect a theme--like the Wizard of Oz collection.

The Fragrance Foundation Asks: What Does Your Smell Mean?
From left, Creed's 2000 Fleurs perfume, a classic floral scent; Jo Malone's Blue Agava and Cacao Cologne, a fresh scent; Acqua di Parma's Colonia Assoluta, a blend of citrus, floral, musk, and amber, which falls into the fresh citrus group; and Thierry Mugler's Alien, which is marked in the floral Oriental family.
Watch out for One Drop Changes Everything, a campaign launched by the Fragrance Foundation that pays tribute to beauty connoisseurs everywhere. It's meant to revive an awareness of the power that fragrance has carried for centuries and serve as a reminder that just one drop of a scent can make you can feel sexy, glamorous, or even playful, nostalgic, and energized. In this spirit, the foundation is speaking with fragrance lovers all over the country to find out what fragrance means to them. For a quick olfactory review, take note of the site's breakdown on the four categories fragrances fall into: floral, fresh, woody, and oriental. Within each category, scents are broken down even further. For instance, for a traditional floral scent, a nose will often choose from fruity notes (peaches, apples, plums), soft floral (another name for often powdery, abstract floral that is created by combining flowers and synthetics), or floral oriental (blends of sweet orange and spice).
Design your own bottle at the Fragrance Foundation's One Mighty Drop site.
If you're wondering where your favorite fragrance falls in the fragrance pyramid, click through the examples of each fragrance type. Within the fruity floral descriptions, we found Creed's Acqua Fiorentina, Ungaro's Apparition Sky, and Marc Jacob's Pear Splash, to name a few.
Lastly, add to the art: if you've ever felt the urge to design your own flacon, go to onemightydrop.com. You can customize your own bottle with rainbow hues and popping patterns (imagine Pucci paisley or Scottish plaid). To top it off, you can upload a personal photograph, and position it on your bottle.

Tim Flannery is on a mission. He believes that human activity is drastically altering the earth's climate, and that before too long these changes will have a devastating effect on life on this planet. He wants to mobilize the social and political will to address this problem before it's too late.
That's why Tim Flannery wrote The Weather Makers: How Man Is Changing the Climate and What It Means for Life on Earth. In this important and provocative new book, which debuted on The New York Times best-seller list, Flannery tells the fascinating story of climate change over millions of years to help us understand the predicament we face. He carefully lays out the science, demonstrating the substantial, human-induced climate change and the likely ecological effects to the planet if this process continues. He then proposes a game plan to halt-and ultimately reverse-this damaging trend.
Tim Flannery is director of the South Australian Museum, and chairman of the State Science Council and Sustainability Roundtable, as well as the National Geographic Society's Australasian representative. He spent a year as professor of Australian studies at Harvard, where he taught in the Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology. In 2002, he became the first environmentalist to deliver The Australia Day address to the nation, and in 2005 he was honored as Australian Humanist of the Year.
A regular contributor to The New York Review of Books and The Times Literary Supplement, Flannery also contributes to ABC Radio, NPR and the BBC. He has also written and hosted several Documentary Channel specials, including The Future, and Islands in the Sky.

President Obama on Monday used a joint news conference with the British Prime Minister at the White House to express his opposition to the targeting of any political groups by the Internal Revenue Service and to push back hard against Republicans in Congress who are investigating the Benghazi attacks.
Here is some of the video from the President on those subjects, and then the full text is below:
PRESIDENT OBAMA: Thank you. All right, we've got time for a couple of questions. We're going to start with Julie Pace.
Q Thank you, Mr. President. I wanted to ask about the IRS and Benghazi. When did you first learn that the IRS was targeting conservative political groups? Do you feel that the IRS has betrayed the public's trust? And what do you think the repercussions for these actions should be? And on Benghazi, newly public emails show that the White House and the State Department appear to have been more closely involved with the crafting of the talking points on the attack than first acknowledged. Do you think the White House misled the public about its role in shaping the talking points? And do you stand by your administration's assertions that the talking points were not purposely changed to downplay the prospects of terrorism? And, Prime Minister Cameron, on Syria, if the EU arms embargo that you mentioned is amended or lapses, is it your intention to send the Syrian opposition forces weapons? And are you encouraging President Obama to take the same step? Thank you.
PRESIDENT OBAMA: Well, let me take the IRS situation first. I first learned about it from the same news reports that I think most people learned about this. I think it was on Friday. And this is pretty straightforward.
If, in fact, IRS personnel engaged in the kind of practices that had been reported on and were intentionally targeting conservative groups, then that's outrageous and there's no place for it. And they have to be held fully accountable, because the IRS as an independent agency requires absolute integrity, and people have to have confidence that they're applying it in a non-partisan way -- applying the laws in a non-partisan way.
And you should feel that way regardless of party. I don't care whether you're a Democrat, independent or a Republican. At some point, there are going to be Republican administrations. At some point, there are going to be Democratic ones. Either way, you don't want the IRS ever being perceived to be biased and anything less than neutral in terms of how they operate. So this is something that I think people are properly concerned about.
The IG is conducting its investigation. And I am not going to comment on their specific findings prematurely, but I can tell you that if you've got the IRS operating in anything less than a neutral and non-partisan way, then that is outrageous, it is contrary to our traditions. And people have to be held accountable, and it's got to be fixed. So we'll wait and see what exactly all the details and the facts are. But I've got no patience with it. I will not tolerate it. And we will make sure that we find out exactly what happened on this.
With respect to Benghazi, we've now seen this argument that's been made by some folks primarily up on Capitol Hill for months now. And I've just got to say -- here's what we know. Americans died in Benghazi. What we also know is clearly they were not in a position where they were adequately protected. The day after it happened, I acknowledged that this was an act of terrorism. And what I pledged to the American people was that we would find out what happened, we would make sure that it did not happen again, and we would make sure that we held accountable those who had perpetrated this terrible crime.
And that's exactly what we've been trying to do. And over the last several months, there was a review board headed by two distinguished Americans -- Mike Mullen and Tom Pickering -- who investigated every element of this. And what they discovered was some pretty harsh judgments in terms of how we had worked to protect consulates and embassies around the world. They gave us a whole series of recommendations. Those recommendations are being implemented as we speak.
The whole issue of talking points, frankly, throughout this process has been a sideshow. What we have been very clear about throughout was that immediately after this event happened we were not clear who exactly had carried it out, how it had occurred, what the motivations were. It happened at the same time as we had seen attacks on U.S. embassies in Cairo as a consequence of this film. And nobody understood exactly what was taking place during the course of those first few days.
And the emails that you allude to were provided by us to congressional committees. They reviewed them several months ago, concluded that, in fact, there was nothing afoul in terms of the process that we had used. And suddenly, three days ago, this gets spun up as if there's something new to the story. There's no "there" there.
Keep in mind, by the way, these so-called talking points that were prepared for Susan Rice five, six days after the event occurred pretty much matched the assessments that I was receiving at that time in my presidential daily briefing. And keep in mind that two to three days after Susan Rice appeared on the Sunday shows, using these talking points, which have been the source of all this controversy, I sent up the head of our National Counterterrorism Center, Matt Olsen, up to Capitol Hill and specifically said it was an act of terrorism and that extremist elements inside of Libya had been involved in it.
So if this was some effort on our part to try to downplay what had happened or tamp it down, that would be a pretty odd thing that three days later we end up putting out all the information that, in fact, has now served as the basis for everybody recognizing that this was a terrorist attack and that it may have included elements that were planned by extremists inside of Libya.
Who executes some sort of cover-up or effort to tamp things down for three days? So the whole thing defies logic. And the fact that this keeps on getting churned out, frankly, has a lot to do with political motivations. We've had folks who have challenged Hillary Clinton's integrity, Susan Rice's integrity, Mike Mullen and Tom Pickering's integrity. It's a given that mine gets challenged by these same folks. They've used it for fundraising.
And frankly, if anybody out there wants to actually focus on how we make sure something like this does not happen again, I am happy to get their advice and information and counsel. But the fact of the matter is these four Americans, as I said right when it happened, were people I sent into the field, and I've been very clear about taking responsibility for the fact that we were not able to prevent their deaths. And we are doing everything we can to make sure we prevent it, in part because there are still diplomats around the world who are in very dangerous, difficult situations. And we don't have time to be playing these kinds of political games here in Washington. We should be focused on what are we doing to protect them.
And that's not easy, by the way. And it's going to require resources and tough judgments and tough calls. And there are a whole bunch of diplomats out there who know that they're in harm's way. And there are threat streams that come through every so often, with respect to our embassies and our consulates -- and that's not just us, by the way; the British have to deal with the same thing.
And we've got a whole bunch of people in the State Department who consistently say, you know what, I'm willing to step up, I'm willing to put myself in harm's way because I think that this mission is important in terms of serving the United States and advancing our interests around the globe.
And so we dishonor them when we turn things like this into a political circus. What happened was tragic. It was carried out by extremists inside of Libya. We are out there trying to hunt down the folks who carried this out, and we are trying to make sure that we fix the system so that it doesn't happen again.

J.T. Allen admits the biggest body of water he had seen before joining up in 1942 was Lake Texhoma, but he says he was determined to be in the navy.
As an aviation mechanic first class, Allen was assigned to what he describes as a "baby aircraft carrier", the U.S.S. Luga Point, in the Pacific.
Aiding in the invasions of Guadalcanal, Iwo jima and Okinowa and guarding the floating "Jefferson Oil Field", were the Lunga Point's primary assignments although aircraft carriers stay a hundred miles off shore from the land battle, that didn't keep the battle from coming to the ships, in the form of kamakazi, or suicide planes. In one attack, four kamakazis hit Allen's ship at the same time.

In the hurly-burly of a Piano competition there are selections that can make or break the chances of a competitor; pieces so difficult or dense that only a master musician can make them work for the audience and more importantly, the judges.
On the Piano this Sunday, we continue with music from the 2012 San Antonio International Piano Competition where two of the pianists "go big" in an effort to convince the judges that they have what it takes to be worthy of the gold medal.
The William C. Hall Pipe Organ Competition turns 42
Saturday, March 2, undergraduate and graduate organists will compete for the 42nd annual Hall Pipe Organ Competition in San Antonio. This year there are a record number of entrants, something unusual for the competition, since sometimes they are unsure of whether or not they will get the minimum of five competitors!
America's wars have long taken their toll on the people who fight them, and the recent attention to post-traumatic stress disorder has helped improve treatment for those who suffer; however, nightly newscasts and newspaper headlines never mention the military working dogs who are also changed by the combat zone.
"Ultimately we want these dogs to become military working dogs and go down range and save lives," said Tech. Sgt. Joe Null, who fosters canine companions for the first few months of their lives to socialize them.
The famous Victory or Death Letter written by William B. Travis during the fall of the Alamo will be returned to the shrine here in San Antonio on Friday.
Travis wrote the letter on Feb. 24, 1836 as a plea for help when the Alamo's defenders were surrounded by several thousand Mexican troops; it's now been 177 years.
Looking to increase trade ties, San Antonio Mayor Julián Castro met with Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto on Thursday. Castro also updated the president on U.S. immigration reform.
Peña Nieto's presidential term is only several months old and Castro said he's looking for ways to improve the flow of trade between the two neighbors. Castro said he was in Mexico City looking to promote San Antonio as a major trade hub for Mexico.

I couldn't have timed better the decision to replay my all time favorite Masterpiece Theatre Classic, "The Forsyte Saga," than the week the Metropolitan would broadcast its "Carmen." I had never really considered the fact that the two works and their heroine's were so close; more sisters than cousins.
The similarities are striking
San Antonio's vocal chamber group the Copperleaf Quintet, has an afternoon of music for Lent planned this weekend. On the program are works by Francisco Guerrero and Tomas Luis de Victoria.
"His [de Victoria's] lines are just so exquisite, and when they are so exposed by just having one person on a part singing them, it's just a wonderful thing to hear!" said Ruth Moreland, the director and soprano for the group.

A skull x-ray is a picture of the bones surrounding the brain, including the facial bones, the nose, and the sinuses.
X-ray - head; X-ray - skull; Skull radiography; Head x-ray
You will be asked to lie on the x-ray table or sit in a chair. Your head may be placed in different positions.
Inform the health care provider if you are pregnant. Remove all jewelry.
Generally, there is little or no discomfort during an x-ray. If there is a head injury, positioning the head may be uncomfortable.
Your doctor may order this test if you you have injured your skull or you have symptoms or signs of a structural problem inside the skull (such as a tumor or bleeding).
A skull x-ray is also used to evaluate an unusually shaped child's head.
Additional conditions under which the test may be performed include the following:
Abnormal results may be due to:
A skull x-ray may detect increased intracranial pressure and unusual skull structures that are present at birth (congenital).
There is low radiation exposure. X-rays are monitored and regulated to provide the minimum amount of radiation exposure needed to produce the image. Most experts feel that the risk is low compared with the benefits. Pregnant women and children are more sensitive to the risks associated with x-rays.
A CT scan of the head is usually preferred to a skull x-ray to evaluate most head injuries or brain disorders. Skull x-rays are rarely used as the main test to diagnose such conditions.

Jim Dickrell is the editor of Dairy Today and is based in Monticello, Minn.
Idaho dairy and livestock farmers are probably sleeping a little more soundly after their governor, Chuck Otter, signed into a law a comprehensive law that offers stiff penalties for anyone who surreptitiously gains access and films farm operations.
Known as the Dairy Security Act, the bill covers wrongful entry and criminal trespass onto farms, theft of records, obtaining employment by wrongful means, taking recordings of workplace activities without the owner's consent and intentionally interfering with the farming operations. It's clearly targeted toward animal rights groups.
If convicted, individuals face up to $5,000 in fines, a year in jail and financial judgments of up to twice the economic damage they caused, says Bob Naerebout, executive director of the Idaho Dairymen's Association. And, under Idaho "aiding and abetting" laws, organizations that employ such offenders can also be held liable.
The bill had strong legislative support, clearing the Idaho House of Representatives on a 56-14 vote. It passed the state Senate 25-10. That gave Governor Otter political cover, who came under intense pressure to veto the bill from animal rights groups and even Chobani, to sign it into law. The questions are:
1) Will the law hold water? 2) Can it be an effective deterrent to undercover filming? 3) Could it be a template for other states to emulate?
I ran those questions by Amy Bruchs, an attorney and partner with Michael Best Friedrich LLP, a law firm based in Wisconsin. Bruchs specializes in employment, labor and litigation, and has more than 20 years of legal experience in these areas.
Bruchs believes the law is sound. "Unless there are some over-riding 'whistle blower' protections [from other laws or regulations], it would be enforced by the courts," she believes.
For example, workers have Occupational Safety and Health Administration whistle-blower protection if they report a work safety violation, Bruchs says. But no such protection currently exists under animal welfare laws, even if an illegal act of animal cruelty occurs, she says.
"At the same time, I wouldn't be surprised to see a court challenge to the Idaho law, or an attempt at the national level to pre-empt such laws," she says.
Some producers also fear Idaho dairies could still be targeted by undercover activists to suggest abuse is still occurring and to challenge the law. Remember, these groups have deep, deep pockets and are lawyered up. To them, $5,000 fines are pocket change. (Ellen DeGeneres' celebrity tweet from the Oscars raised $1.5 million for the Humane Society of the United States.)
States that attempt to pass similar legislation are also in for some very nasty business. Animal rights groups play hardball. In Idaho's case, Mercy for Animals released additional, gruesome video of alleged abuse on one of the state's largest dairies. It didn't matter that the dairy had already made amends to its animal welfare protocols and practices, fired the workers involved and even cooperated with authorities in their prosecution.
I'm not saying dairy and livestock groups shouldn't attempt to enact similar dairy security protections in their own states. There might be windows of opportunities to get this done in states such as Wisconsin that have Republican control of both the legislature and governorship. But dairy and livestock groups need to go into these fights with eyes wide open. It will be a nasty, brutal fight.
The best protections for individual farms are no-exception adherence to industry-sanctioned animal welfare protocols and scrupulous hiring practices. I'm not naïve enough to believe that even this offers 100% protection. For now, though, it's the best you've got.
You can read more on animal care guidelines here.
And you can read about suggested downer cow handling protocols here.
Down cows happen. It doesn't matter if you have 30 cows or 300 cows or 3,000 cows. Down cows happen.
The problem is that cows can go down anywhere. In tie stalls. In freestalls. In milking parlors. In exit lanes. In foot baths. In loading chutes. In nooks and crannies of facilities no one would ever think a 1,500 lb. bovine could get into. But they can, and they do.
At some point, you have to deal with this reality. The critical issue is how you deal with it. What is acceptable, humane handling and what is out of bounds?
Mike Costin, a professional services veterinarian with Animart, has done a fairly exhaustive review of existing veterinary literature on the handling of down cattle. He found little guidance outside of generalities.
So he, along with Kurt Vogel, a dairy scientist at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls, has set about establishing specific protocols for dealing with down cows. (Vogel received his Ph.D. under Temple Grandin, the renowned animal welfare specialist.)
Costin and Vogel are still finalizing the protocols, but Costin gave farmers a sneak peek at the Wisconsin Dairy Business Association's "2014 Access Symposium" in Green Bay, Wis., last week. First and foremost, these protocols will serve as templates. Farms will have to develop their own protocols specific to their dairies because no two facilities are alike, says Costin.
You'll need to walk the facility with your veterinarian and identify problem areas, he says. Then you and your veterinarian will need to write specific protocols for each. It will take time to develop these, but they'll be critical to removing a cow humanely and expeditiously.
That's particularly true for cattle going down in choke points, such as in parlors or return alleys. You might even go so far as to consider retrofits or remodeling. At the very least, new and remodeled facilities should keep down cows in mind when building occurs.
First and foremost, every farm should identify a downer cow team. "It takes a team of individuals to move a 1,500 lb. cow," says Costin. So every farm should have a team of four individuals identified per shift who can be called upon on a few minutes' notice to move the animal. "These should be long-term, trustworthy employees who have at least a year of employment at your farm," says Costin. The team should include a shift supervisor or manager who is calm and who has decision making authority.
"Moving a down cow is not a spectator sport. Only members of the down cow team need to be present," says Costin. Having others present adds to safety concerns for both the animal and employees, and increases the risk of having someone videotape the proceedings.
Team members should be trained in proper animal handling techniques. Hip hoists, for example, can be used to help an animal stand. But they should not be used to move animals. For that, use a sling that supports the animal both front and rear.
If a sling isn't practical, animals should be rolled onto sleds and moved slowly to a recovery area. Rolling animals into front-loader buckets is acceptable, as long as the buckets are large enough to accommodate the animal. Some producers have dedicated buckets, equipped with rubber mats, which are used only for down cattle.
The last resort, if an animal can't be humanely moved, is euthanasia. But protocols should clearly spell out who has the authority to make the euthanasia decision, who should do it and how it should be done. Even after euthanasia, animal should be treated with respect. "It does make a difference," says Costin.
Now that the 2012/2013/2014 farm bill debate is finally over, it's time to look behind the curtain to see who won what and how.
Conventional wisdom is that Speaker of the House John Boehner (R-Ohio) simply would not let the House/Senate Conference Report move to the floor of the House of Representatives if it contained supply management.
"Unfortunately, the Speaker's threat that he would not allow a vote on the farm bill containing the market stabilization program has effectively killed our proposal within the committee," conceded Jim Mulhern, CEO and President of the National Milk Producers Federation (NMPF).
In effect, to use lobbyist lingo, NMPF would have had to "roll the chairman." Overturning the wishes of a chairman of a congressional committee rarely happens, and rolling the Speaker never does. (The Republican's inability to "roll" Nancy Pelosi, when she was Speaker of the House, is the reason we now have Obamacare.)
Lobbying by processors and farmers opposed to supply management gave Boehner additional cover. Both Senate and House agriculture committees had supply management in their reports. "So it was imperative we won the vote in the House," says Jerry Slominski, International Dairy Foods Association (IDFA) Senior Vice President for Legislative Affairs and Economic Policy.
IDFA wooed member/leaders of each of the five Democratic caucuses, claiming supply management would raise consumer milk prices at the very time billions of dollars in food stamp aid were being cut. The strategy worked, with supply management stripped out of the House bill last summer by a vote of 291-135.
But others say Boehner's opposition meant NMPF was fighting an uphill battle from the start. They say Democratic leaders knew supply management was dead on arrival three years ago.
With supply management gone, palace intrigue switched to the margin insurance program. Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) was in the middle of it all, say sources. The final margin insurance premiums locked into law are far different than those originally proposed, particularly for farmers shipping less than 4 million pounds of milk annually.
Also new are 25% premium discounts for the first two years of the program for the first 4 million pounds of production. These discounts were added late in the negotiations to benefit smaller farms and encourage them to sign up.
Leahy also reportedly wanted a third tier of premiums for annual milk production that exceeded 40 million pounds (2,000 cows or there about). The premiums for this insurance were much, much higher than the other categories. They were so high that most large farms probably would not have participated.
Lobbyists for NMPF and dairy organizations who wanted all sizes of farms eligible for affordable insurance had all they could handle keeping this third tier of premiums out of the Conference Report. In the end, the farm bill became as much of what people didn't want included as what finally became law.
You can read the latest on the farm bill here.
It was one of those watershed moments that will remain in your memory—like the discovery of the BSE cow in Washington 10 years ago and the FDA announcement that BST was approved 20 years ago.
On Jan. 16, the National Milk Producers Federation (NMPF) issued a statement conceding that supply management was dead. Yesterday, the Senate/House Conference Committee reported out its farm bill compromise, and market stabilization was nowhere to be found.
After four years of meetings and resolutions and all-out lobbying, one of the cornerstones of NMPF's "Foundation for the Future" plan was dead on arrival in the U.S. House of Representatives. NMPF conceded:
"Despite the long-standing opposition to this plan from House Speaker John Boehner, we were confident we had the votes in the conference committee to defeat any amendment to strike the market stabilization program," Jim Mulhern, the new president and CEO of National Milk said in his statement.
"Unfortunately, the Speaker's threat that he would not allow a vote on a farm bill containing the market stabilization program has effectively served to kill our proposal within the committee." Boehner's opposition to supply management, or as National Milk dubbed its plan, market stabilization, is well known. The Speaker of the House likened it to Soviet-style economic planning.
Boehner's opposition resulted in a 2:1 vote against the provision when the farm bill was debated in the House last summer. That alone signaled that a House-Senate conference committee report containing dairy supply management would have tough sledding once it reached the House floor for a final vote.
After yesterday's Conference Committee report, Mulhern believes new provisions that establish a production base for each farm (the highest annual production of 2011, 2012 or 2013) cannot be used as an incentive to expand production. "Importantly, the program doesn't discriminate against farms of differing sizes, or preferentially treat those in differing regions," he says.
Margin insurance is the cornerstone of the new dairy policy, but it will have to tweaked to make sure farmers use it as a risk management tool as it's intended. You can read a summary of the new dairy provisions here.
That will mean sign-up deadlines sufficiently far out so that farmers won't know with a lot of certainty milk and feed markets. Premium payments also should be strutured so that they could be paid from indemnities or profits at the end of the insurance year rather than at the beginning.
This farm bill process, the longest in history, has been one heck of a ride. Let's hope implementation will go a whole lot smoother.
U.S. dairy export numbers through November were released last week, and the news couldn't be better. For the first 11 months of the year, the U.S. sent $6.1 billion worth of dairy products to customers outside our borders.
That's 17% more than last year. And if sales continue on this torrid pace, the U.S. is likely to be up 30% for the year when the December numbers are released next month. Through November, the U.S. was exporting 15.6% of all of its milk solids to foreign customers. That's an astounding feat, since just 10 years ago, we were exporting just 3% and importing a like amount. Today, exports exceed imports by a factor of four.
"While favorable pricing and supply shortages in New Zealand may have accelerated growth in 2013, overall U.S. performance was not surprising given long-term trends," says Tom Suber, president of the U.S. Dairy Export Council (USDEC). "This year marked the fourth consecutive year of record U.S. dairy export volume and the ninth record year in the past 10."
Prospects for 2014 are also bright. "Long-term demand from a growing middle class in emerging markets and an inability of traditional supply sources to keep pace continue to fuel international dairy trade," says Suber.
But it also should come with some tempering. U.S. milk production in 2013, expected to come in at 201.2 billion pounds, was up only 0.5% over 2012. European milk production was up just 0.3%, and New Zealand production was down 4.3%.
Global milk supplies are expected to rebound in 2014, says Jerry Dryer, editor of the Dairy and Food Market Analyst newsletter and author of Dairy Today's Market Watch Diary column. He expects U.S. milk production to climb 1.7%, Europe's to grow 2% and New Zealand's to climb 4.5%. If those increases materialize, that will add another 12 billion pounds of milk to global markets.
This supply, says Dryer, will "barely keep pace with anticipated demand growth." But there are always hiccups. "The lapse of unemployment insurance and cuts to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (food stamps) will be a drag in the U.S. domestic market," he says.
And then there's the unknown. It was 10 years ago last month that a Washington state dairy cow was discovered to be infected with bovine spongiform encephalopathy, commonly known as "mad cow" disease. The chart below shows it took the U.S. beef industry almost 10 years to recover its export market.
And the scary part is, the U.S. is really not much closer to a national identification program to trace, track and locate infected animals than it was in 2004. Yes, we've tightened feed regulations. And USDA now requires some form of identification of animals 18 months of age or older before they can move across state lines. But it's been left up to the states to trace animals within their borders. But metal ear tags and paper ID for interstate travel is at best 19th Century technology coping with 21st Century globalized trade.
My point is not to scare you. (Well, maybe it is.) But U.S. dairy exports, as powerful a market driver as they've been, are only as strong as our next animal health crisis. Increasing levels of exports make us ever more vulnerable to market crashes.
Yes, let's celebrate these gains. But the industry needs to be even more vigilant for health and milk quality events. It must continue to fight for rational, national animal identification. And it can never assume ever growing exports are now our birthright. Past performance does not guarantee future prosperity.

About us…
What the...fuh!
Do you love eating ethnic foods or are willing to try? Join us. Few people realize what a melting pot Nashville is becoming. And fewer, realize what an abundance of ethnic restaurants there are - Vietnamese, Korean, Persian, Ethiopian, Thai, Indian, Honduran, Turkish, Cuban, Japanese/sushi, and the list goes on. Let's visit some old favorites and discover some new ones together!
Nashville also offers many cultural events during the summer & fall, ethnic cooking classes and regional wine tastings. Let's expand our horizons beyond food. Namasté!
About the Meetup Group name: Pho is a traditional Vietnamese noodle soup dish (served with cilantro and/or Thai basil, mung bean, lime, jalapenos, hoisin & sriracha). The word "pho" is properly pronounced as if asking a question. It is not pronounced with a long "o," but instead rhymes with the "u" in the word "but". So the final pronuncuation is "fuh?" (sounding like a question). What the "fuh"?

MZ Wallace Handbags, Handbags of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
Sometimes a whole group of handbags deserve to be mentioned as "handbag of the day," because in some cases it's just too hard to narrow it down to a single choice. MZ Wallace was founded in 2000 by Monica Zwirner and Lucy Wallace (hence the name!) and they describe their designs as "innovative yet classic" and "classic with a twist." I'd have to say I agree. As a general rule the colors and shapes of their handbags are simple and straightforward (definitely "classic"), while also getting a tad trendy by adding in unexpected fabric and color combos. How many high-end bags pair sequins with canvas?

Forrester's five phases of open-source success
If you walk into the headquarters of open-source leader Red Hat, you'll see this quote from Mahatma Gandhi gracing the wall:
First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.
It's a poignant reminder to Red Hat employees that Wednesday's ridicule of open source has shifted to a market that seemingly can't embrace open source fast enough.
Forrester Research has crafted its own "Five Stages of Open Source Adoption," as published recently in the May 15, 2009, edition of SD Times, which roughly follows the same pattern … Read more

"This will continue our efforts in fulfilling the administration's commitment to significantly reduce the harmful environmental impacts of coal mining in Appalachia and nationwide," said OSM spokesman Christopher Holmes.
On the AML program, Obama proposed similar changes last year and in 2009, but they went nowhere. The idea was considered dead on arrival at Congress, where it was opposed by elected officials from Wyoming, the nation's largest coal producer.
Under the Obama proposal, states like Wyoming that have "certified" that they have reclaimed all of their abandoned coal mines would no longer continue to receive money from the AML program. Currently, those states receive large allotments -- up to $186 million annually -- of AML funding, which they use for other purposes.
The money for AML comes from coal production taxes, and the original AML law promises states that they would get back half of the money generated within their borders, regardless of whether it was needed for abandoned mine reclamation work.
Under the proposal, OSM would establish an advisory council to review and rank reclamation projects proposed by states and other parties, and recommend distribution of the funds to the highest priority sites.
The Obama proposal would likely benefit states like West Virginia and Pennsylvania, which continue to have large inventories of abandoned mines that need cleaned up, but don't produce nearly as much coal as Wyoming.
Eliminating the payments to certified AML states was recommended in December by the President's National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform, which was co-chaired by Alan Simpson, a former GOP senator from Wyoming.

The Building
The building was originally the house of K. Renti. It was designed and built by the Greek architect Vassilis Tsagris in the years 1928-1930. Tsagris had also worked in Vienna. He had his own style and he has influenced many other Greek architects. The style of the building is eclectic combining various elements of the neoclassic style (which in these years has begun to fade away) and the elements of French architecture. The ground floor and the entrance bare have a simple grand volume hat functions as a pedestal for the rest more decorated building. Columns with capitals emphasize the vertical axon elongating the building. The strong cornice of the top of the building captures the spectator's gaze creating dramatic shadows. Details such as the metallic rail of the balconies are the stylistic signature of Tsagris. After years of various uses this historic building is now a house of arts.
The permanent collection of Spyros Papaloukas
On the fifth floor there is a permanent collection of the Greek Painter Spyros Papaloukas (1892–1957). The painter studied art in the school of Arts of Athens and then in Paris. His style combines influences of post- impressionism artists such as Van Gogh, Matisse and Cezanne with the Byzantine Art. The abstraction, the intense brush strokes and the lively colors of his works make him a truly modern painter.

Gender Discrimination and Social Identity: Experimental Evidence from Urban Pakistan |
January 2013 Number 593 |
JEL classification: C72, C91, J16, Z10 |
Authors: Adeline Delavande and Basit Zafar Gender discrimination in South Asia is a well-documented fact. However, gender is only one of an individual's many identities. This paper investigates how gender discrimination depends on the social identities of interacting parties. We use an experimental approach to identify gender discrimination by randomly matching 2,836 male and female students pursuing bachelor's-equivalent degrees in three different types of institutions--Madrassas (religious seminaries), Islamic universities, and liberal universities--that represent distinct identities within the Pakistani society. Our main finding is that gender discrimination is not uniform in intensity and nature across the educated Pakistani society and varies as a function of the social identity of both individuals who interact. While we find no evidence of higher-socioeconomic-status men discriminating against women, men of lower socioeconomic status and higher religiosity tend to discriminate against women--but only women of lower socioeconomic status who are closest to them in social distance. Moreover, this discrimination is largely taste-based. Our findings suggest that social policies aimed at empowering women need to account for the intersectionality of gender with social identity.

Overall, the 2011 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback is a good concept, but trails behind better sports-oriented hatchbacks, especially in terms of cargo space, performance, and value for money.
Reviewed by Automotive on 6/5/2011
The 2011 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback is a five-door, hatchback version of the Lancer. The Lancer Sportback first debuted in 2004 as a facelift of the eight-generation Lancer sedan. The car was launched along with a sports-oriented Ralliart version of the Lancer. The 2011 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback is a reliable vehicle, so long as you service it regularly.
The 2011 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback is just a year old, and it offers new trim levels for this year: the base model ES, mid-level GTS, and performance-enhanced top-level Ralliart version.
The modern 2011 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback is based on the Mitsubishi Concept-Sportback model that was shown at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2005. The production model, with its RISE safety body, was launched for the U.S. market in later summer 2009 for the 2010 model year.
The 2011 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback is perfect for those who want to enjoy the utility of the hatchback coupled with the performance of the rally-bred Lancer. The Sportback gets the performance part right, by getting all the required parts from the sporty version of the Lancer. The car does not sacrifice utility for performance either; its hatchback style offers more cargo space than a sedan.
The ES trim model is new to the 2011 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback. This trim level comes with rocker-sill bodywork extensions and 16-inch steel wheels. Apart from the bigger, more powerful engine, the GTS is fitted with 18-inch alloys, chrome exhaust tips, and sport-tuned suspension.
Overall, the aggressive exterior styling of the 2011 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback does not carry over into the cabin. Cheap, hard plastic materials cover the interior, the design is unimpressive, and taller drivers will encounter some issues with the driver's seat.
The entry-level ES comes with full power accessories, keyless entry, cruise control, four-speaker stereo with CD, MP3 and auxiliary audio input support, and 60/40 split rear seat and armrest at the center.
The mid-level GTS features sport front seats, automatic climate control, keyless entry and ignition, six-speaker stereo system with USB port, and Fuse voice activation system. The GTS trim also features a dual-level cargo floor that offers 52.7 cubic feet of cargo space.
Irrespective of the trim level, the 2011 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback still has some nagging issues that make it less appealing. Firstly, the interior of the hatchback is below par. The cabin is dull and there are just too many plastic pieces dangling about. Secondly, the luggage space takes a hit because of the racked rear window. In sum, the interior quality is not excellent, so you can expect to replace the plastic parts inside the cabin.
The 2011 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback is set up with a 2.4-liter straight-four engine under the hood. It can be mated to a five-speed manual transmission (standard) or a continuously variable transmission gearbox (optional). A 2.0-liter MIVEC straight-four engine delivers 148 hp of power and 145 lb-ft of torque to the Sportback ES. The base model of the 2011 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback is a great option for people looking for just a little sport from their daily commuter, and special emphasis has to be given to ""just a little"". The 2.0-liter MIVEC engine powering the base 2011 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback is the same as that of the base model Lancer, so it does not come as a shock to see the Sportback ES fare poorly as a performance hatchback.
The mid-level GTS is good for those who are more inclined towards performance and ready to pay the cost. The same goes for the Ralliart, which offers a thrilling ride, but not before burning a sizeable hole in your pocket. The Ralliart version of the 2011 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback is fitted with a turbocharged version of the 2.0-liter MIVEC engine, and an all-wheel drive system. The engine is mated to a six-speed dual-clutch transmission gearbox with shift paddles borrowed from the Lancer Evolution X. The turbocharged MIVEC engine delivers 237 hp of power and 253 hp of torque.
All models of the 2011 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback are fitted with safety features, like anti-lock brakes, stability control, driver's knee airbag, head curtain airbag, and front seat airbags.
