Obama picks turnaround expert John Koskinen to head IRS
Send this to a friend

John Koskinen helped America survive the Year 2000 computer conversion, lent his management talents to the city of Washington, D.C., and helped right the ship at Freddie Mac after the financial crisis. Can he now get the Internal Revenue Service back on track?
President Barack Obama thinks so. He has selected Koskinen as the next commissioner of the IRS, replacing acting chief Daniel Werfel.
"John is an expert at turning around institutions in need of reform," Obama said in a written statement. "With decades of experience, in both the private and public sectors, John knows how to lead in difficult times, whether that means ensuring new management or implementing new checks and balances.
"Every part of our government must operate with absolute integrity, and that is especially true for the IRS. I am confident that John will do whatever it takes to restore the public's trust in the agency," Obama said.
That trust has been shaken in recent months, thanks to revelations that the IRS targeted tax-exempt groups for extra scrutiny based on their politics, and wasted thousands of dollars on extravagant conferences and "Star Trek" parody videos.
Obama appointed Werfel to step in on an interim basis; now Koskinen will be asked to take on this task for the long haul.
"With a distinguished record of turning around large companies and reorganizing the management and operations of highly complex public and private institutions, John is the right person to take on this critical position at this important time," said Treasury Secretary Jack Lew.
Werfel probably will be glad to hand over the corner office to Koskinen: Today Werfel endured a three-hour hearing before the House Ways and Means Committee, where Republicans questioned the agency's ability to enforce Obamacare's mandates.

[Keyword='NEAR-INFRARED WATER VAPOR ESTIMATES']
MODIS/Aqua Total Precipitable Water Vapor 5-Min L2 Swath 1km and 5km (Collection 004 and 005)Entry ID: MYD05_L2
Abstract: MODIS was launched aboard the Aqua satellite on May 04, 2002
(1:30 pm equator crossing time) as part of NASA's Earth Observing
System (EOS) mission. MODIS with its 2330 km viewing swath width
provides almost daily global coverage. It acquires data in 36 high
spectral resolution bands between 0.415 to ... 14.235 micron with spatial
resolutions of 250m(2 bands), 500m(5 bands),and 1000m (29
bands). MODIS sensor counts, calibrated radiances, geolocation
products and all derived geophysical atmospheric and ocean products
are archived at NASA Goddard DAAC and has been made available to
public since April 2000.
The MODIS level-2 atmospheric precipitable water product consists of
total atmospheric column water vapor amounts (and ancillary
parameters) over clear land areas of the globe, over extended clear
oceanic areas with the Sun glint, and above clouds over both land and
ocean. These estimates are based on a near-infrared algorithm using
only daytime measurements with solar zenith angle less than 72
degrees. The retrieval algorithm relies on observations of water vapor
attenuation of near-infrared solar radiation reflected by surfaces and
clouds. The product is produced only over areas that have reflective
surfaces in the near-infrared. The infrared-derived precipitable water
vapor generated for both daytime & nighttime conditions as one
component of another MODIS product (MYD07) is also provided as a part
of this product.
The shortname for this level-2 MODIS total precipitable water vapor
product is MYD05_L2 and the principal investigators for this product
are MODIS scientists Dr. Bo-Cai Gao ( email@example.com), Dr. Paul
Menzel (firstname.lastname@example.com), and Dr. Yoram Kaufman.
MYD05_L2 product files are stored in Hierarchical Data Format
(HDF-EOS). The file contains 13 gridded parameters. Each of these
gridded MYD05 parameters is stored as a Scientific Data Set (SDS)
within the HDF-EOS file. The Water Vapor and Quality Assurance SDS's
are stored at 1 kilometer (near-infrared) and 5 kilometer (for
infrared) pixel resolution. All other SDS's (those relating to time,
geolocation, and viewing geometry) are stored at 5 kilometer pixel
resolution. The Cloud Mask SDS, copied from the MYD35_L2 Product is
stored at 1 kilometer resolution. Each file is roughly 14.6 MB in
size, and the total data volume is approximately 2.9 GB/day.
MODIS Data Category & Parameters
Spatial & Temporal Resolution:
scan start time
Solar and Sensor Viewing Geometry:
solar zenith angle, solar azimuth angle
sensor zenith angle, sensor azimuth angle
Water Vapor Parameters:
near-infrared estimated water vapor(1km)
water vapor correction factors(1km)
infrared estimated water vapor(5km)
Quality Assurance & Statistical Parameters:
QA flags for near-infrared retrieval(1km)
QA flags for infrared retrieval(5km)
cloud mask(1km)
The near-infrared water vapor estimates are very sensitive to boundary
layer water vapor since they are derived from atmospheric attenuation
of surface reflected radiances. This product is essential to the
understanding of hydrological cycle, aerosol properties, aerosol-cloud
interactions, energy budget, and climate.

Rusty's Famous Cheesecake gaining fame, ramping up
Send this to a friend
- Glenn Drosendahl
- Contributing Writer- Puget Sound Business Journal
- Email | Twitter
After many months in a kitchen working on his "hobby," businessman Rusty Federman is experiencing a sense of impending boom.
His "Rusty's Famous Cheesecake" has been added to the menu at Daniel's Broiler steakhouse in Bellevue as part of a deal to put it in Schwartz Brothers Restaurants.
At the same time, almost from nowhere, it has been named Best Dessert in KING 5's Best of Western Washington viewers' poll -- beating, among others, Chef Tom Douglas' Dahlia Lounge with its iconic coconut cream pie.
"When they called to tell me," Federman recalled, "I said, 'Is this a prank?'"
Federman has a business degree from the University of Washington and he calls himself a serial entrepreneur.
He helped his brother Derek Federman establish the clothing company B.U.M. Equipment. He was involved in the founding of another clothing line, Excess Baggage, a joint venture with Code Blue. He also established Brandfly, a boutique marketing and merchandise promotion agency.
Besides being a businessman, he is a cheesecake addict.
His habit started when he was a teenager and his parents owned Lox, Stock and Bagel in the University District. He remembers eating a piece of his mom's cheesecake every afternoon. On Sundays, when the restaurant was closed, he would use its kitchen to bake for fun.
After starting and selling three businesses, Federman went back to his first love in 2010. He became, as he puts it, "a very accomplished hobbyist," the hobby being cheesecake.
He started with the family recipe he learned from his mom, whose name graces his original New York-style "Esther's Classic Cheesecake." Gradually he added other flavors such as chocolate espresso and bourbon pumpkin.

Ten years ago, the American empiric misadventure in Iraq began. The National Security Archive at George Washington University has compiled the key intelligence and military documents that (mis)led the country's political leadership to war. Human beings brought to the process willful blindness, deliberate lies to obscure a strategic goal, and sincere convictions. They used PowerPoints and memos with codewords to reassure each other that their decisions were correct.
In late November of 2001, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld visited the headquarters of U.S. Central Command to see the progress made on revising OPLAN 1003-98, which was the DoD's regime change operational plan for Iraq. "98" refers to 1998, when it had last been reviewed and finalized. A Rumsfeld memo includes three potential avenues to war; it would be triggered by the discovery of WMD, by Iraq's suddenly proven connections to al Qaeda, or a sudden invasion of Kurds.
Then, on July 23, 2002, notes from a meeting with the prime minister of the U.K., defense secretary, chief of the defense staff, head of MI-6 and others, where the planning for war was much advanced and that "intelligence and facts were being fixed around the policy." (What John Scarlett, the SIS head who uttered these words, actually meant, has been debated. He says it meant that Washington was narrow-minded and suffered from a sort of confirmation bias, not that deliberate falsehoods were being created.)
The intelligence community was not unanimous that Iraq had reconstituted a WMD program or that the evidence for such a reconstitution was mounting. The State Department's Bureau of Intelligence and Research dissented in two fundamental ways in a 2002 National Intelligence Estimate. INR noted that special tools that could help create nuclear weapon components were indeed being produced, but that they had been produced well before Iraq was thought to have started its program and that the tools "clearly" were intended for other, conventional uses. The NIE also contains a "report" that Iraq sought uranium from African sources -- later proven untrue and the source of the Valerie Plame outing.
Here, a planning document suggests that a maximum of 5,000 U.S. troops would be on the ground a few years after the invasion.
Finally, the list of "horribles" that Rumsfeld drew up in an October of 2002 listing what could go wrong. His last sentence: "It is possible of course to prepare an illustrative list of all the potential problems that need to be considered if there is no regime change in Iraq."

GOOD Maker Challenge: Make L.A. Greener With a Grant from TreePeople
by GOOD Maker
The next time you're walking to the grocery store, biking to school, or taking the bus to work, take a minute to look around and see what natural benefits your community is lacking. Empty lots in need of native plant integration, long stretches of sidewalk calling for shade cover, inefficient water use, the list goes on.
Luckily, organizations like TreePeople are helping turn more and more of these spaces in Los Angeles into eco-friendly oases. In more than 30 years of work, TreePeople has planted more than 2 million trees in L.A., The group has also created Functioning Community Forests, urban communities "where local residents and businesspeople have joined together to transform their neighborhood into a sustainable ecosystem that functions like a healthy, natural forest." And they're just getting started.
This summer, TreePeople is looking to the GOOD community to find even more solutions to make Los Angeles green. The TreePeople 2012 Green City Challenge on GOOD Maker is open for submissions until June 25, and the group is looking for your sustainable solutions. Tell us how you would use supplies, expertise, and volunteer support from TreePeople and $500 in cash towards your project. From June 25 to July 14, rally your networks to vote for your idea. The winner will take home all the green: supplies, plants, resources, and grant dollars. Apply at treepeople.maker.good.is

Backup quarterback Trevone Boykin went 8-for-8 through the air for 75 yards and a touchdown, and also ran for 57 yards and a touchdown on five carries for TCU (1-0), which played its inaugural game as a member of the Big 12 Conference.
Waymon James rushed for 69 yards and a touchdown on five carries, while Josh Boyce led the receiving corps with four catches for 102 yards and two touchdowns. Brandon Carter contributed a touchdown catch.
David Bush added a receiving score and Deante' Gray returned five punts for 160 yards and a touchdown in his first college game. TCU head coach Gary Patterson earned his 110th victory, becoming the program's all-time winningest coach.
"I guess if you were going to script a first ball game, this is the way we would do it." Patterson said. "We got a chance to play a lot of players. The one thing we have to work on is organization, especially with the No. 2 offense. We had to call some timeouts, but other than that it was what you wanted to start off with."
D.J. Williams completed just three passes for 14 yards and an interception and Cedric Skinner led the rushing attack for Grambling State (0-2) with 25 yards on eight carries.
TCU came flying out of the gate in the opening quarter, scoring 28 points to take control of the game early.
The Horned Frogs opened the scoring when Gray returned a punt 70 yards for a touchdown, and they picked up their first offensive touchdown of the game on their opening possession, using a nice balance of run and pass plays to march 75 yards in seven plays before James punched it in from one yard out for a 14-0 lead.
It took just one play for TCU to find the end zone again as Williams was picked off on the first play of Grambling's ensuing touch by Elisha Olabode, who took it 28 yards for the score.
With just over five minutes left in the first frame, Pachall hit Carter with a 21-yard touchdown strike to finish off a quick 2-play, 67-yard drive and a dominant first quarter.
The Horned Frogs kept their offensive momentum going in the second quarter as Pachall completed a 12-yard touchdown strike to Boyce early in the frame and connected with Boyce again on their next possession -- this time for a 66-yard touchdown bomb and a 42-0 lead.
Boykin took over at quarterback for TCU to begin the second half and wasted no time making an impact on the game.
Facing a 3rd-and-6 on the Grambling 34, Boykin pulled the ball down in the pocket and took off, showing excellent speed and elusiveness as he darted around potential tacklers for a 34-yard touchdown scamper with just over seven minutes to go in the third.
Boykin found Bush for a 7-yard touchdown strike with a little more than two minutes to go in the quarter to cap the rout.
"With a team like TCU, who's been a strong team for the past 12 years, we tried not to turn the ball over and make mistakes," Grambling State head coach Doug Williams said. "To give up a touchdown on the first punt is certainly not the best way to start out the game, but you have to give TCU credit too because they made plays and it's about what they did and what we didn't do."
Grambling State punted 11 times and finished with just 70 yards of total
offense, while TCU racked up 531 yards of offense ... TCU converted 4-of-6
third down opportunities, while the Tigers managed just three third-down
conversions on 14 attempts ... Patterson passed Dutch Meyer on the all-time
wins list. Meyer led the Frogs to their only national championship in 1938.

Amelia Lily - China In Your Hand Lyrics
Amelia Lily – China In Your Hand Lyrics
China in Your Hand
From the album Bridge of Spies by T'Pau
Written by Carol Decker and Ron Rogers…
Verse 1
It was a theme she had
On a scheme he had
told in a foreign land
To take life on earth
To the second birth
and the man was in
It was a flight on the wings
Of a young girls dreams
That flew too far away
And we could make the monster live again
Oh hands move and heart beat on
Now life will return in this electric storm
A prophecy for a fantasy
The curse of a vivid mind
Don't push too far
Your Dreams are china in your hand
Don't wish too hard
Because they may come true
And you can't help them
You don't know what you might
Have set upon yourself
China in your hand
Come from greed
Never born of the seed
Took life from a barren hand
On eyes wide
Like a child in the form of a man
A story told
A mind of his own
An omen for our time
We take a flight on the wings of fantasy
Then you push too far
And make your dreams reality
Yeah! china in your hand
But they're only dreams
And you shouldn't push too far

Autism bill, other measures set to take effect
Gov. Sean Parnell let the bill become law without his signature. He said the measure exempted about 20,000 small Alaska businesses from its effects while requiring insurance companies to provide coverage in policies purchased on the private market by larger employees.
Autism and autism spectrum disorder are general terms for a group of complex disorders of brain development characterized by difficulties in social interaction, verbal and nonverbal communication and repetitive behaviors.
In a letter to legislative leaders in June, Parnell cited the benefits of early diagnosis and treatment and said opponents didn't provide detailed analyses for their assertions that premium costs could rise by 3 percent a year.
He said he would remain open to amending the law if compelling evidence emerges.

Testimony ends in trial of ex-Dartmouth student
HAVERHILL — A Grafton County Superior Court Judge Peter Bornstein Tuesday dismissed two of seven sexual assault charges against a former Dartmouth College student.
Later in the day, both the prosecution and defense rested their cases after seven days of testimony in the matter of Parker C. Gilbert, 21, of London, England.
Gilbert still faces five counts of aggravated felonious sexual assault against an 18-year-old student who said she was sleeping in her dormitory room last May 2 when she awoke in the early-morning hours to find Parker, then a member of the Big Green rugby team, sexually assaulting with her.
The alleged victim from Connecticut has also since left Dartmouth but returned to New Hampshire last week to provide emotional testimony that Gilbert had no permission to enter her unlocked room that night last spring. She told jurors he refused repeatedly to cease attacking her when she asked him several times to stop.
Defense attorneys say the encounter was consensual sex between two students who had been drinking and had seen each other earlier in the night at a campus fraternity party.Gilbert also faces a Class A misdemeanor count of criminal trespassing on the night of the alleged attack.Bornstein is expected to deliver instructions to the jury today, before attorneys for both sides present their closing arguments and the jury begins deliberations.

Travel Troubles
If you scan through social media sites looking for shark videos, you will come across countless videos of people diving with sharks, fishing for sharks and even saving sharks.
But you may also notice a new trend starting to emerge in the shark world: More and more people having hands-on encounters with sharks.
And within this group, we are noticing an increase in the number of videos showing people engaging in the practice of shark riding - grabbing a shark by its dorsal fin and allowing it to pull you through the water.
This activity has become so prevalent that we recently added the tag "riding a shark" to our blog index at Shark Attack News.
So how did this trend start? The early shark riding videos were primarily released by conservationists who were trying to drive home the message that sharks are not mindless killers that continually roam the oceans seeking out humans for their next meal.
Ocean Ramsey, Kimi Werner and Lesley Rochat are three of the better-known conservationists who have been depicted riding large tiger and great white sharks.
Whether you agree with their tactics, the sight of these petite women holding onto the dorsal fins of large apex predators, often two to three times their own size, are absolutely extraordinary and thought-provoking.
These interactions are calculated. These conservationists have many years of experience dealing with sharks, and they have a level of comfort around sharks that most people do not.
They did not engage in this activity without preparation, and they acknowledge that there are risks involved.
So what is driving this new surge involving ordinary folks riding sharks? My best guess is either alcohol or an unfounded sense that sharks are one step away from being pets.
Either way, it's a dangerous game that will most certainly end badly for some unfortunate soul down the road.
And since many of these interactions are videotaped, I'm guessing we'll have a new gruesome video making the rounds and sharks will once again be vilified.
The latest shark-riding video emerged this week via YouTube. We see several vacationers in Bora Bora swimming at the surface while several lemon sharks swim below.
At the 22-second mark, one man swims down and grabs the dorsal fin of the lemon shark. After riding it for several seconds, he does something truly shocking.
He swings around to the bottom of the shark, gives it a bear hug and hangs on belly to belly. His head is precariously located just below the shark's mouth and he hangs on for several seconds before finally letting it go.
According to Grant Murdock, who posted the video, he too rode one of the sharks but his encounter wasn't recorded.
Grant wrote in his description of the video that the sharks "were gentle and accepting of our advances."
"They didn't seem to mind at all that we were riding for free. It was as close to an out of body experience that I have ever felt."
After posting the video on our Facebook page, the number of negative responses far outweighed the positive.
Several people were rather succinct in their assessment of the swimmer and left the following one word comments: idiot, crazy, deplorable, and dumb.
Dawn Williams is the founder of Shark Attack News, a blog created for raising awareness about sharks and to share interesting stories, videos and photos.

McDonough Marine Service announced the launching of a new barge, Marmac 303 (300 feet by 100 by 20), the second in a series of new ABS ocean classed deck barges commissioned by the barge and marine transportation company.
The Marmac 303 barge was designed with an ABS Load line maximum cargo capacity of 13,200 short tons at 15.7-foot draft. The uniform deck strength of 4,500 pounds per square foot, combined with increased side shell strength, provides clients with maximum hull protection. Additionally, the latest industry design provides charterers the greatest opportunity to thrive in the increasingly challenging Gulf of Mexico offshore cargo markets.
The Marmac 303 will be ready for charter next week and eventually will be fleeted in Amelia, La.
