text: Daily Beast: Jenny McCarthy Co-Hosting 'The View' Would Be 'Dangerous' Print article Send a Tip by Larry O'Connor 12 Jul 2013 post a comment "(Jenny) McCarthy's views on vaccinations and autism aren't just stupid, they are actually dangerous." So says The Daily Beast in a hard-hitting analysis of the speculation that McCarthy, a former Playboy model, is set to replace Elisabeth Hasselbeck on ABC's "The View." After wading through some gratuitous attacks on Hasselbeck for her conservative views, Tricia Romano then focuses squarely on McCarthy and her activism with regard to the scientifically dubious connections between autism and diet and vaccinations. Since 2007, McCarthy has been a vocal opponent of the chemicals in vaccinations, credulously citing research (she's neither a doctor nor a medical professional) and experiences with her autistic son as evidence. (It has also been reported that he may not even have autism, but Landau-Kleffner syndrome.) She has promoted the idea that people are getting an outrageous number of vaccinations today compared with the 1970s or '80s. According to the book, Autism's False Prophets: Bad Science, Risky Medicine, and the Search for a Cure, the amount has only doubled, from seven to 14, to include vaccinations for the flu, hepatitis, and chickenpox among others, in addition to the measles, mumps, polio, tetanus, and others that are standard. McCarthy doesn't let science and facts get in her way. She has written three books about the subject—Louder Than Words: A Mother's Journey in Healing Autism, Mother Warriors: A Nation of Parents Healing Autism Against All Odds, and Healing and Preventing Autism, which have all been New York Times bestsellers. She is the president of an autism organization, which is also averse to vaccination, called Generation Rescue. When promoting one of her books, she told Oprah how she learned about autism: "The University of Google is where I got my degree from." McCarthy's opinions on autism and suspected "causes" and "cures" have raised eyebrows in the past, including a legendary appearance on The Larry King Show in 2008. "Give my son the measles! I'll take that over autism any day," she yelled at a pediatrician after calling America's vaccination program "bulls**t." Many believe her stances on autism lead parents to have false hope for a "cure" rather than focusing parents on the path of accepting their child's autism as a part of their unique personality, worthy of respect. They also say McCarthy's pseudo-science distracts parents from seeking actual help in how to better communicate and interact with their autistic children. As Big Hollywood's Dana Commandatore points out: Once again, we've learned that celebrities do not have the answers. Sure, they look good on camera and can deliver a line better than average folks, but they are missing out on something important in the case of autism. Parents don't need pseudo science and anecdotes. They need real life experiences and tried and tested information. Others criticize the anti-vaccine rhetoric as being responsible for thousands of preventable illnesses and deaths. But, as the Daily Beast points out, McCarthy seems unfazed by the increase in diseases as a result of her efforts: To promote her book, she essentially suggested to Time magazine that it might be good for polio to reemerge so that people could ask for better, safer vaccines, passing the buck to the medical community, not the anti-vaccine community for the rise in previously suppressed diseases. She told Time: "I do believe sadly it's going to take some diseases coming back to realize that we need to change and develop vaccines that are safe. If the vaccine companies are not listening to us, it's their f___ing fault that the diseases are coming back. They're making a product that's s___. If you give us a safe vaccine, we'll use it. It shouldn't be polio versus autism."

Are the Vikes still considering a move for Winfield from corner to safety? Also. are we still in the market for a Safety such as Otogwe? I like our run defense with E.J coming back and the Williams Wall still standing, but we will need to be able to cover teams such as the Saints, Packers, Cowboys, Eagles and Cardinals again in order to make it to the big game, so why arn't we trying to solidify that hole in our coverage?

Are the Vikings interested in acquiring Haynesworth from Washington? He had a great year in Tennesse and then a seriously disappointing year last season. Is he worth the money he's requesting, and is Zygi and the front office willing to go after him? If so, what do you think we would need to give up in exchange? Obviously this would be a relatively smart move with this season probably being Pat Williams' last with the Vikes.

The majority of Vikings nation believes that The Silver Fox will be back for one more run in 2010, but if he happens to surprise us all and finally call it quits, what is your opinion on Tarvaris Jackson and his potential to lead the team? I'd say our team is considerably better on offense than the last time Tarvaris started, with the addition of Percy, and the breakout season by Rice (which we can thank Brett for), plus Shiancoe playing at the level he is, I personally believe TJACK could do it. But obviously I'm in a rare group of fans that thinks this way. What do you think?

I have been wondering just how much carrying a heavier ball helps peterson with his fumbling problems. I mean I would thing when he starts carrying the regular football at would be so light that he would still hold it away from his body. Why dont they have him carry a regular football and do drills where they use plastic bats to try and knock the ball out. Just a suggestion, and was wondering about the weighted football.

Is Childress concerned with the absence of Jared Allen's mullet? These things are obviously hard to prove scientifically, but I think everyone knows that the DE's excellent Squirrel Pelt dramatically improved his game, and inspired the entire defensive line as well. Can we expect to see the mullet return? Will there be enough time for Allen to grow it to an adequate length by the much-anticipated rematch vs. New Orleans?

Obviously with the recent issues with Haynesworth, there would be some lengthy discussion about the acquirement of him here at the Vikings. With Pat Williams probable retirement at the end of the season, and a low cost in terms of the trade (ie 3rd round draft pick for an incredibly good player – if Childress can handle him) – do you think the Vikings are strong contenders to get Haynesworth?

Hi, Mike what was the point of signing ryan moats when we are loaded at running back? will percy still return punts? I hope they only use him specifically at wideout.

What do you think is Vikings biggest consern? I mean we are very good loaded at all position, all people keep saying safety is our biggest problem, how do you see the seconddary on the vikings rooster? I think that the two safeties will step up this season. I also think the addition of Chris Cook was a very nice move. Do you think the vikings improoved enough at seconddary this offseason? –
Who do you see have the biggest impact in the 2010 season, and is the seconddary good enough to winning a Superbowl?
Thanks – Malte Dengsøe :)

if Favre retires do you think the play calling will become predictable again? 1st down run, 2nd down run, 3rd down pass, over and over again.

With the college realignment, do you feel it's pushing more towards a playoff? I hope so!

I was just wondering why the Vikings have signed a RB when they are already loaded at the position(not saying Moats cant help the team) but have done nothing to solidify the teams biggest need which is safety? I find this especially confusing since their is a high quality player out there in O.J. Atogwe? Do you think ther is any chance of the vikes signing him? If not why do you think so? Also with the stuff that has been going around lately what is your thoghts on whether Favre will come back this year? Also do you think that T-Jack has improved enough to take lead of this team if Favre hangs em up? Finally what is the word on Webb from what i heard he must have been really impressing coaches? he started out at WR took some snaps at QB and then by Mini Camp was taking most of the 2nd String snaps. Is this kid the real deal?

Is there a rift between a.p and the vikings? are they trying to change ap running style or will they let the lion run loose like his rookie year I hope the vikings don't change his running style. Its just the way he holds the ball he runs hard and should continue that form. I heard they want ap to be more patient wouldn't that affect his mentality?

Hi, Mike thanks for keeping fans updated pre season is around the corner I hope the o-line practices against heavy blitz and protect the qb more especially in shotgun formation favre was brutalized if you have the chance to talk to childress tell him in training camp to heavy blitz the o- line get them more aware of different types of blitz 3-4 or 4-3 I hope mckinney picks up his game he has been a huge disappointment.

Happy fathers day Mike. With Favre coming back for another run, whats your opinion on the vikes picking up both Otagwe and Haynseworth? You have to admit there would'nt be too many who would question our favorability at the superbowl with those two added on.

What free agent out there, if any, do you think could be a good fit to the Vikings? I know there are not many holes in the team, but is there someone that adds depth to a certain position, or could be additional insurance to a potential injury?
By Dustin on Jun 20, 2010 | Reply
Is there a reason why the vikes haven't pursued Westbrook? Was it the injuries or was it a money issue? It would appear that the Vikings staff believe something needs to be added to the running back position. Can we expect to see another RB be added to the team?

Mike, What positions do you think need to be improved to make this team have a higher chance of a SB championship? Safety, LB, deeper Def Line depth, O-line?

Hey Mike,
Should the old man decide to hand up his boots, either this summer or next, what would you like to see the Vikings do to address the QB position? should we sacrifice some draft picks and either trade up and get one of the top QB's from college or trade for a potentially top QB in the NFL (perhaps from Denver)? or should we stick with what we have and try to develop Jackson and Webb?
Kind Regards,

What's happening with RB Ian Johnson? Is he attending summer practice? I really enjoyed his performance here in the WAC. Though WAC to others maybe weak, still got players made for the NFL.

Last season the offensive line had some great games, but then there was the carolina game and some other bad performances. Why were there these inconsistences? and what is being done to make the o-line more consistent? I think if it was more consistant last year Brett would have been even better (if that is possible) and in the NFC champioship not as beat up and pressured out of the pocket to throw the worst interception ever which eventually cost us the game. Thanks for taking my question.
By Pat the Viking on Jun 22, 2010 | Reply
I don't think we ( Vikings ) is interested in Haynseworth. By what I am seeing in draft choices and etc. I think we will or might go to a 3 – 4 defense in 2011. It would NOT be a good idea to have Haynseworth, if we do.

Can the orginazation help with support for those that need some extra attention of help at these times. Like , players start some contributions them self. They are earning such big wages. Help the smaller less fortunate people at this time. The Viking org. can have and advertise the public to bring an can or two to all of the home games. Or even an bag full of good !!

With the best run stopping defense in the game the past five years, how can we boost the play of our secondary to create a top ten pass defense team and also remain at the top with run stopping? Also, would signing Atogwe be a benefit or a hurt by removing either M. Williams or Tyrell Johnson?

Kanati Fork Trail
|Trail Features:
|Trail Location:
|Between Newfound Gap and Cherokee
|Roundtrip Length:
|4.0 Miles
|Total Elevation Gain:
|1495 Feet
|Avg. Elev Gain / Mile:
|748 Feet
|Highest Elevation:
|4328 Feet
|Trail Difficulty Rating:
|6.99 (moderate)
|Parking Lot Latitude
|Parking Lot Longitude
Directions to Trailhead:
From the Sugarlands Visitor Center near Gatlinburg, drive 21.4 miles south along Newfound Gap Road (8 miles past Clingmans Dome Road). The parking area for the Kanati Fork Trail is easy to miss. The parking lot will be on the left side of the road; however, the trailhead is on the opposite side of the road. If you reach the Kephart Prong Trailhead you've gone a half-mile too far.
From Cherokee, go north for almost 12 miles on Newfound Gap Road. The parking area will be on your right.
Trail Description:
The Kanati Fork Trail follows just above the Kanati Fork Creek for the first half-mile or so. Since the creek lies in a valley roughly 50 feet below the trail, you'll only be able to catch a few glimpses of the stream as you climb upward - if you're hiking when leaves are on the trees. During the winter months the stream appears as white ribbon cutting a path through the bottom of the valley.
The creek and the trail are named after the mythical Cherokee hunter, Kanati. Legend has it that Kanati, also known as "First Man," did all the hunting for his family, as well as for the entire village. His wife, Selu, gave the Cherokee People the gift of corn, which became their principal crop.
During the early portions of the hike you'll notice a lot of rhododendron adjacent to the trail and in the valley below you. As the Kanati Fork Trail meanders uphill you'll cross over several small creeks under the canopy of large hemlocks and yellow poplars. The trail is a steady climb, but you really won't notice the elevation gain if you're goal is spotting wildflowers.
Two nights prior to our most recent hike on this trail, a powerful storm ripped through the Smokies and dumped marble-sized hail that damaged flowers and foliage in much of this area. Despite all the damage we still saw a variety of wildflowers, including Canadian violets, Vasey's trillium, painted trillium, Northern white violets, wake robin, brook lettuce and false Solomon's seal.
Late April is usually the best time to hike the Kanati Fork if you're searching for wildflowers. However, you can expect to see early yellow violets as early as March. By April, you may begin to see cut-leaved toothwort, dwarf cinquefoil, large-flowered bellwort and white baneberry.
Some late summer/early fall flowers you can expect to see on the Kanati Fork Trail include beaked dodder, bee balm and Turk's cap lily.
We ended this hike after walking only two miles. You do have the option of continuing on for another mile to the Thomas Ridge Trail junction, however, most of the wildflowers will be within the first two miles of the hike.

Assemblyman Saladino Honors Nassau County Mock Trial Champions From Massapequa High School
May 16, 2012
Assemblyman Joseph S. Saladino recently honored a group of students from Massapequa High School on their accomplishment of being the Nassau County Mock Trial Champions for this year's 2012 New York State Mock Trial Tournament. The group competed with 44 other high schools in Nassau County to win the title. The team was led by Teacher-Coach Dan Bachman and attorney Brian Draper, a volunteer attorney-advisor for the team. The Mock Trial tournament is the largest competition in the state that pits high school students arguing a real case in a real courtroom, and Nassau has the largest single-county tournament in the state.

My previous post comparing billboards to online banner and space ads garnered positive comments and reviews – for the ads rather than my analysis!
Still, there was an unmistakable cry for more, and being the reader-pleasing whore that I am, well… here are some more innovative billboard ads
So for the copywriters out there, here are a few examples where great copy/message beats clever design and visual puns:
Ouch! Starbucks can't be happy with that one. Doesn't get much more powerful that that.
And then there's this:
I love the anti-testimonial on this one. Compare that to the typical church billboard you might see.
What I love about this one is that it doesn't focus on making you "aware" of the problem; you're already aware of the problem, for crying out loud. It focuses on making you square with your indifference as indicated by your lack of action. This one probably won't win any awards, but it IS very likely to spark action by those who read it.
Now compare the previous "power of message and copy" examples to the following billboards and outdoor ads aimed to make maximum use of visual scandal by adding in some plain ol' scandal into the mix. Nothing like a hint (or more) of taboo to snag the attention of passers-by.
If you like these ads, I snagged more than a few of them over at billboardom.com and there's plenty more worth browsing.
[Editor's note: the author of this post is now blogging at jeffsextonwrites.com]
This is just precious! I love good adds, though some might be a bit too cheeky for my taste, they sure seem to appeal to the sentiment they are meant for. I tend to think advertising sticks all the better when homour is involved!
Great examples of thinking outside the box, Jeff.
Have you at FutureNow done research on whether these "scandalous" type ads work as well in online media?
[...] Strong Copy vs. Cheeky Design… Conversion rate Marketing [...]
No research done yet. We are normally called in to optimize campaigns and ads that have already been developed, and that normally involves tweaking the landing page more than changing the ads. Also, research tends to get done on things that are easily researched/quantified and Visual Scandal is hard to quantify, so there hasn't been any outside research done on this either.
- Jeff
I don't doubt the "visual scandal" impact as a general rule, but from a practical standpoint, I always look to copy first for several reasons:
* Faster, easier, cheaper to test. Re: Bryan's recent post on the "follow me on twitter" test. How do you "tweak" (pun intended) the "cheeky" examples for the multitude of potential visual variables? Size? Complexion? Hairiness? I'll leave it there…
* Personally Inferential. What is more effective– the ad showing a starving child or the example you give where the "mental" picture is equally powerful, definitely more personal, and sets up the intellectual engagement rather than just a visceral response?
* Interruption vs. Engagement. a creative visual can certainly be a more dramatic "interruption," but much less seldom leads to "engagement," that in turn leads to action. As a general rule, PICTURES are entertainment, WORDS are EDUCATION/INSTRUCTION.
* Less "self-congratulatory." Don't get me wrong, I know plenty of copywriters who believe every one of their headlines is a mystical incantation, but the subjective "artistic" side of visual advertising is what leads to self-indugent Super Bowl ads and Clios that are amusing but not effective.
* Targeted. Demographic (let alone PERSONA) targeting is infinitely more "squishy" visually and by its nature more subjective. Visual cultural and demographic "clues" are much more likely to be misinterpreted or lead to inconclusive results.
As always, I apologize for the lengthy post, but I guess it's just evidence you're meeting what I suspect is one of your objectives– creating deeper awareness and conversation about effective marketing techniques.
Now that I've stirred the pot…
Sincerely, thank you so much for the thoughtful comment. Of course, as a copywriter, I kind of felt like you were preaching to the choir, but you'll still get a hearty "amen" from me, brother
I'll only say that there are quite a few people involved with Visual Rhetoric who would argue with your third point. And I guess, I'd be somewhere between the two poles. Of course, most visuals are designed to work WITH copy, where each element contributes to a whole that's greater than the sum of it's parts. Here's a perfect example of that:
- Jeff
As much as I hate McDonald's I have been impressed with a few of the pieces of their new coffee campaigns. I think some of it has been lame, but the one at the top of this post is quite stellar. Bold and direct…something that McDonald's can do without risking much at all.
Great! Was there an underlying theme here? lol
Knowing your background, didn't think I'd get much disagreement…
And I KNOW I overstated my third point. And definitely agree that the intelligent, RESULTS-driven synthesis of words and visuals is the best of all possible worlds as well as IMO being easier to test and tweak into an integrated campaign once you figure out what works best,
I really enjoy all of your posts though I seldom emerge from "lurkdom" to comment. Keep it up!
Hilarious list!
Thanks for the inspiration.
Please turn this into a coffee table book.
Regarding the "four bucks is dumb," rumor has it that McDonalds's media buyer threw that billboard up across the street from SBUX headquarters in Seattle. That's bonus points
Flashy ads are overrated. If you put the right words in the right order in front of the right audience it sells every time.
Like your post! I think catching the public´s attention is one of the most important things in advertising, as it is the entertainment. It´s a way to keep people interested and can work very well with the word of mouth. If you are not noticeable, then you have less chances of doing it right.
Are you really allowed to use the word f**k on a billboard over there? Wow.
I rather doubt that one is allowed to use that word via FTC-regulated media. Then again, I doubt that that's a U.S. billboard as the 24,000 features a dot rather than a comma, which is more of a euro thing, if I'm not mistaken.
But would the message be diminished that much if it said "Screw 'em"?
Another Cedar Creek billboard read, "I was robbed at Cedar Creek Church".
I was suprised to find out Cedar Creek Church themselves were behind the billboards.
Story about those billboards here –
Loved this post! I have to say that Cedar Creek Church missed a great opportunity: Why didn't they purchase http://www.satanhatescedarcreek.com and create a mini-site aimed at driving traffic to their er, church?
From their billboard, it looks like they did do something like that (look in the bottom left-hand corner). Obviously, the site is no longer up and working, so I can only guess that the campaign ended and they took the site down (probably should have left it up, IMHO). At any rate, you're right that having an online place to get more info would be essential for a billboard like this.
- Jeff
Persusive or not, if attention is the primary target, they succeeded.
I think the hunger almost made it and then blew it by making the website impossible to read, particularly while driving by. Or maybe it was on a low level near a street where people mainly walk by? Couldn't tell by the pic.
Lesson: make a great ad but be sure the desired response is in no way obscured.
Still laughing/gasping at these, it's clear most of these are NOT up in the US though, advertisers are constantly having to come up with more clever ways to grab the attention of passer bys, but how could these advertisers have gotten the same reaction here in the US I wonder? A little subtlety never hurt right? Great ads, when does part 2 come out??? Thanks!
[...] Strong Copy Vs. Cheeky Design – A collection of billboard and other ads where strong copy is key, from futurenow's marketing blog. [...]
Some of these are really clever. I'll have to check out the link. Thanks for bringing them to our attention.
Is the "24,000 people die from hunger…" billboard pitching the Cedar Creek Church?
As you described these guys are not pitching the problem, they're pitching the solution and that's a fresh approach that I appreciate.
Only challenge I have with it is it's sure enough an attention grabber but the call to action is so weak.
Assuming the action intended is to donate, it's not clear who we're being asked to donate to?
Thanks for these posts and double thanks for submitting them to Stumbleupon, I'd not have learned about your blog or agency if not for Stumbleupon.
this is absolutely an insightfy article.
in my opinion,to catch the public´s attention is one of the most important things in advertising!
That is the key point
Those billboards got my attention, lol. It would be very interesting to know HOW effective those billboards really are. I still rather drink by coffee in SB than at McDonald's.
Design a superior expectations.
Thanks for the inspiration.
I think David Bruce Jr is right. The call to action on the 24,000 people one is lacking. And the context to make 24k a real number (eg in world-wide terms this is pittance.)
I think this is a good example of the power of call-to-action copy and how subtle it can be:
Word of mouth as successful marketing depends on connecting the dots for people – otherwise it's just entertainment.
For example has anyone taken action on what they read in the ads here? I doubt it.
What great ads. Surely you would get into trouble for them. Though I must say they do a good job and get your attention. Even though by a motorway could cause a crah or two.
It's a bit crazy. But I guess at the end of the day, you actually want aggressive attention.
Jeff this might be your greatest post yet haha, obviously mcdonalds idea worked because starbucks just announced 1.50 house blends now. $4 for a coffee is rediculous…
That is some funny stuff. I love it

text: Matt Damon: Edward Snowden's Leaks a 'Great Thing' Print article Send a Tip by Breitbart News 26 Aug 2013 post a comment Actor Matt Damon hasn't researched the entire case involving leaker extraordinaire Edward Snowden, but the Elysium star knows enough to dub the leaks a "great thing." Damon, who starred in three political thrillers as the wily Jason Bourne, told an interviewer that some good came out of Snowden's intelligence leaks. He described the revelations as "pretty shocking." And he declared: "On balance, I think that it's a great thing that he did." The leaks speak to a bigger issue of freedom versus safety, one Damon thinks should be decided on a "collective" basis. "If we're going to trade our civil liberties for our security, then that should be a decision that we collectively make," he said.

Greenwald claimed he has more revelations to break as a result of whistle-blower Edward Snowden's disclosures. He also went right after President Obama and criticized his targeting of Snowden, suggesting that Obama is trying to make an example of the international fugitive: What the Obama administration wants…is to make it so that everybody is petrified of coming forward with information about what our political officials are doing in the dark that is deceitful, illegal or corrupt. They don't care about Edward Snowden at this point. He can no longer do anything that he hasn't already done. What they care about is making an extremely negative example out of him to intimidate future whistle blowers from coming forward because they'll think they're going to end up like him. That's their objective. Recently, some journalists have suggested that Greenwald should be held criminally responsible for "aiding and abetting" Snowden with his security leak. In response, Greenwald evoked Thomas Jefferson and stood by his performance and took a swipe at NBC News' David Gregory: Thomas Jefferson, 250 years ago, said those who most fear investigations are the ones who attack free press first. This is what journalism is about, shining a light on what the most powerful people in the country are doing to them in the dark. So we're going to continue to do that no matter what David Gregory and his friends say. Watch the segment here:

Rihanna is amazing, I mean, everyone knows that.
It's not debatable.
But what is just blowing my mind right now is how much I love "Only Girl(in the world)", specifically the chorus which totally feels like it was written for me. Like she just read my mind and was like "this is how Cyd feels, I should reach out to her and let her know I feel this way too".
...Which is egotistical as fuck.
But still.
Oh my god this song wow.
Otherwise uhm I should maybe say stuff besides that.
My birthday was the best ever.
Which is awesome considering how few drugs I was on.
Oh shit! This is news, hang on...
Okay so my best friend ever in the whole world and I have reconnected and he came to visit me for two weeks about a week ago!!
We had this huge fight/falling out and the I moved to Texas and we didn't speak for over two years!
I missed him constantly, if you've been really just totally connected with someone like that you'll get it.
It's not like missing a lover, it's like missing family.
Like being homesick for the brother/sister you CHOSE.
The one who CHOSE you.
And after all the time, he just sent me a message and the best part:
He had felt the exact same way!
So he came to Buffalo and it was awesome.
I was broke for half of it so we spent most of the time just chilling and smoking out but it was like old times again.
He went back to Oregon and I miss him but it's so different.
The space doesn't feel so bad now, we're besties again.
Thats pretty huge news, how did I forget to say?
I miss how much more active I was on dA...
Anyways, I totes have photos coming soonish and they will be awesome, so yeah.
The title of this journal is so fucking apt lol

Long Shots Sports Café opened its doors on October 18, 2012.
Our intent was to bring a fresh, modern take on a sports café to the area,where friends, family, and newcomers can feel welcome.
Our opening was recent, but our roots in the community run deep—dating back to the early 70's with Trading Cove.
Trading Cove started out as an egg farm, family operated by Joan and John Lahaniatis, with Aunt Mary and Uncle Chris Stevens.
In 1978, they opened a to-go business, selling eggs, poultry, vegetables,grinders, and pizza.
In 1983, they expanded to a 100-seat family restaurant. In 1988, they once again expanded the restaurant to include a lounge and bar.
In 2012, Long Shots opened with the same family atmosphere and pizza recipes!

I would venture an opinion that it isn't really a very useful exercise, as you cannot benefit from mastery sub level 80 (i.e. your block chance remains static until then) and thus would not be able to reach anything close to full CTC anyway.

What a beautiful boy I am !
What a beautiful boy I am ! My name is Cody and someone from SMAWL saw me DUMPED on the side of the road from a car ! It took a while but they finally caught me and I am at the shelter with lots of other kitties. I'd love to have a home of my own again. I like attention but will let you know when I am finished.I like; to have my head rubbed; not so much near my tail. I don't like to be picked up, though. I'm kind of independent that way. I'm kind of a tough guy so I probably should not be in a family with small children.I get along with other cats;not sure about dogs though as SMAWL has never had me around them.
My name is Rusty and I am a gorgeous pittie/boxer mix !
I am 4 years old, neutered and up to date on my vaccines. I need to be the only dog in the home please. I've still got a lot of puppy in me and I like to play. I need a strong owner who will invest in some training for me. I'm smart and love people, but because of my size and playfulness I should be in a home with children over 15 years old and no cats. If you have the time and willingness to invest in me I'll be your loyal friend forever!
Hi ! I'm Blue and I am a gorgeous Blue Tick Coonhound. I was rescued from a bad situation where I was chained outside to a dog house. I have adapted to indoor life VERY well. I am already house trained and crate trained. I walk pretty well on a leash and I am just about the sweetest, laid back guy you'll ever meet. I get along with other dogs and cats too. I'm 9 years young but I am in good health despite my hard life. I am looking for a place to retire where I am spoiled and can share my indoor home with you. I'd love to have someone who has time to spend with me, as I spent most of my life by myself. If you are interested in me please go to www.smawl.org and submit an online application. Given the nature of my breed we would prefer a fenced yard.
Smokey and her sisters Apple and Spot were taken in by SMAWL as kittens. As you can see from the picture, she was ear tipped when she was spayed to signify that she was originally part of a feral colony. She is NOT feral, just very shy. SMAWL has had all 3 of them for 8 years and they have never had a home of their own.
"I am very shy at first-I might take a while to get used to a home, as I've never been in a real home of my own! But once I am comfortable, I'm yours for life! I love to play with the laser light and I love to be brushed too! Looking for a companion? Then I'm your girl !"
She has been in a foster home for a few months now and at first it took a while for Smokey to come out of hiding, she loves being part of her foster family now!! She will climb up in her foster moms lap for cuddles and adores belonging to a family. She gets along well with kids, other cats and a big dog.
If you have the patience to allow her to adjust to your family on her terms, once she trusts you, you will have a wonderful companion.

Effects of Urban Development on Stream Morphology
Authors: Josh Galster, Kristen Balschunat, Mariya Guzner, Matt McNicholas, Benjamin Muller
The purpose of this Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) project was to address how watershed land use and road crossings impact stream geomorphology. It is important to understand the ways in which agricultural and urban land uses affect rivers and riparian systems because their impacts have environmental and economic consequences. Road crossings (e.g., bridges and culverts) also can negatively impact stream morphology and fragment aquatic habitats, decreasing and disconnecting available habitat. This study analyzed the change in stream morphology at 33 sites in three different watersheds in northern New Jersey: the Flatbrook, Wallkill and Rockaway. These watersheds were selected because their rivers have similar watershed characteristics in terms of slope, size, and bedrock lithology but vary in land use. The watersheds include highly forested (Flatbrook), agricultural (Wallkill) and urbanized (Rockaway) land uses. At each site the Rapid Geomorphic Assessment (RGA) score was determined, and the river bed sediment size, velocity, bankfull width and slopes upstream and downstream of road crossings were also measured. The study also analyzed the effects that bridges have on local river conditions by measuring stream constriction caused by bridges.
RGA scores increased with increasing upstream urban land use and decreased with increasing forested land cover, suggesting that urbanization decreases stream stability. Results show that bridges that influence the channel width by constricting or widening the channel affect the widths of the banks, size of streambed sediments and velocity of the water upstream and downstream of the crossing. The study also analyzed historic USGS stream gage data to determine changes in total annual baseflow and surface runoff. In the urban Rockaway watershed baseflow decreased while surface runoff increased as urbanization increased. Ultimately, this information can be used to make recommendations about watershed and river management, as well as designing road crossings with minimal impact on stream morphology. Rebuilding and redesigning bridges, buildings and structures by river banks is very costly and understanding the ways in which these developments are in turn affected by streams can have high time, energy and cost returns.

text: South Korea: North Korea Sending Drones Near the DMZ Print article Send a Tip by AWR Hawkins 8 May 2014 post a comment On May 8th South Korea's Foreign Ministry said three drones captured near the border between North and South Korea were sent by the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), the official name of the North Korean government. According to Xinhua, South Korean defense ministry spokesman Kim Min-seok said a "U.S-South Korea joint investigation team conducted a scientific probe into three DPRK drones after announcing an interim probe result on April 11." An investigation into the drones' CPU chips shows the drones were programmed to take off and return to North Korea via flight patterns that were "pre-arranged... via [a] global positioning system."

This week we've examined the political, environmental and health concerns surrounding the plant. The Jacksonville Electric Authority's pulverized coal plant is one of two plants in the St. John's River Power Park, and the JEA says it's a good example of what we can expect to see built in Taylor County.
Mike Lawson, Project Director of the North Florida Power Project, says, "If it was just JEA, we would be building it in Jacksonville. In fact, we have other plants on the drawing board other than this. We will be building others."
There are four utilities that would take part. It's up to Tallahassee voters to decide whether Tallahassee should have a seat at the table, but there have been many concerns.
Will it make a difference in rates?
JEA says it will. They know from experience before there was coal in Jacksonville; JEA says there was oil.
Don Cheatham, Assistant Director of the North Florida Power Project, says, "JEA diversified when they brought on new power sources and put in coal, that's why our power costs are among the lowest in the state."
We'll compare the rates using 1,000 kilowatts. It's what most utilities say is the average home's monthly usage.
In Jacksonville, 1,000 kilowatts costs $89.15. That's compared to the capital city's $118.77, but energy costs are just part of the debate.
There's also the question of health. Robbie Smith runs the Safe Harbor Boys Home, JEA's closest neighbor which is also next door to the coal transfer station.
Robbie Smith says, "We have boys who have allergies and all kinds of problems and they clear up while they're here, and we're obviously right next door to the coal plant."
Clean the Air, a national campaign against dirty air, says they may want to think again. It claims by 2010 in Jacksonville there will be 94 deaths related to the coal plant, 13 lung cancer deaths and more than 2,000 asthma attacks.
However, the health departments in that area say there have been no complaints of deaths, cancer or asthma attacks related to the coal plant.
While the North Florida Power Project swirls at the center of a heated debate here, a Gulf power coal plant is working to supply power already just a few counties away in Sneads.
Gulf Power has been there since 1953 and is only operated at certain times of the year, but we could not find any issues associated with that plant.
There's one certain issue though. There is a need for more power. It's now for you decide if the North Florida Power Project is the right option.
The coal referendum ballots are due back to the supervisor of election's office no later than 7 p.m. on November 17.

New Delhi: For many people, the city of Bangalore, also known as Bengaluru, conjures up an image of a metropolis that plays host to the headquarters of some of the world's biggest software companies. But dubbing Bangalore 'the Silicon Valley of India' has started to irritate local residents and even those who have made it their home as they argue the Karnataka capital is much more than just an IT hub.
Award-winning author Usha KR from Bangalore uses the city as the backdrop to her latest novel, Monkey-man, published by Penguin India, that features a mix of lifestyles influenced by the city's deeply entrenched past and evolving culture.
There are characters worried that globalization has made their skills obsolete and those who want to make the most of the new opportunities and surge ahead with confidence.
Award-winning author Usha KR uses Bangalore as the backdrop to her latest novel, 'Monkey-man'.
The author, whose other books include A Girl and A River, The Chosen and Sojourn, said about her writing, "My thoughts on Monkey-man started coalescing around the year 2000. The '90s were a period of rapid and evident change. The economy was opening up for the first time since independence, globalization seemed certain and inexorable, IT and its manifestation, the Internet, were changing the face of communication, our conception of time and space even, and India seemed to be catapulting from a developing economy to the exciting new destination for the world. I began thinking about how these changes would affect different people, how much control they would have over their lives, and then my characters, situated in different forks of time and circumstance, started coming to life."
She said, "Around this time, there was a spate of stories in the press about strange menacing creatures, even UFOs and extra-terrestrial beings, being sighted all over the country. This suggested a connection that could this be a metaphysical expression of what a society or a city stands for "A symbol of the manifest destiny of the people" or was it a subconscious projection of individual hopes or disappointments".
"And so the novel was born with the framing device of the monkey-man which would connect with the lives of ordinary people, affected by change."
"The cover is very effective and expresses quite effectively the undertow of the novel. It also matches a populist conception of a city as a dark brooding place. But there is more to it in the book. It is not an unremittingly dark place. It is a place of hope, of opportunity for some people. The book also says that even as some people find it difficult to cope with change, the younger lot, who are free of the baggage of the past, can grow here unfettered." Sahe added.
When it comes to finding characters for the plot, she said, "One just has to look around, observe with sympathy and be open to the human predicament. Ours is such a rich, complex society. So much is being made of late of stories of migration and multiculturalism in the West and I thought to myself, how would I deal with these things."
That was the spur, in a way, for the character of Neela Mary Gopalrao in Monkey-man, standing at the confluence of two different faiths, languages, classes and castes and yet not representative of any of them."
"I started thinking about it, making notes and reading up for it from the year 2000. Eight years later in 2007-2008 I wrote the first draft in about four or five months. I think novels take long to gestate, though the actual writing does not take very long."

Overnight, a group of two adults, a child and two dogs disappeared while camping at Pyramid Lake.
They were found safe this morning just after 4:00 am, near Whino Point at Pyramid Lake, their boat docked on shore.
When the family didn't return to camp after a day of boating, neighboring campers became concerned, and called police authorities.
Tribal police, search and rescue, and fire department units were on the scene at Pelican Point to begin the search. They had two boats on the lake, searching with full gear.
Police allegedly found personal items from the family at either the campsite or their vehicle, and then went to their home on Solari Drive. Their goal was to look for anything or anyone who might know anything about the boat or the family. Nothing turned up.
Athough the family is back on shore, details are still developing as to how this happened. Washoe County Search and Rescue says they had some sort of mechanical problems.

Specifications for Temple Fork Outfitters Large Arbor Fly Reels can be seen in the Specifications tab above.
I have been a fly fisherman for ~65 years. I have owned every major brand rod and reel throughout those years. Temple Fork is best known for their economically priced, high quality rods that have an unconditional, lifetime warranty. They don't advertise, thus their reels are known mostly via word of mounth. It is my strong opinion that there isn't a finer reel in the ever growing list of moderately priced reels. I equate my 375 and 425 with my Tibor Everglades and Riptide at 1/3 the price. These were the first quick release spools I had seen. They are available in colors. The drag and bearings are top quality. The price is right.
