From the Georgia Department of Natural Resources
-- With the March 26 opening of Georgia's turkey hunting season, wildlife officials are anticipating a harvest below the last year. Statistics from 2010 indicate an estimated 47,275 resident Georgia hunters bagged 34,001 turkeys last year.
"We had a real productive 2010, so there will be many juvenile turkeys available for harvest," according to Kevin Lowrey, wild turkey project coordinator. "However, the poor reproduction levels in 2007 and in 2009 will lower the supply of vocal adult gobblers."
Georgia's current turkey population is estimated at 335,000 birds and turkey hunters here are privileged with one of the longest turkey seasons nationwide. With a bag limit of three gobblers per season, hunters have from March 26 through May 15 to harvest birds.
Because most hunters pursue wild turkeys on private lands, the wildlife officials remind hunters to always obtain landowner permission before hunting.
Georgia's Wildlife Management Areas offer excellent public land turkey hunting opportunities. Resident hunters have access to nearly one million acres of prime hunting land for just $19 a year. Success rates and total harvest numbers from 2010 may help indicate which WMAs hunters should target this year.
In the northwest, Johns Mountain and Paulding Forest WMAs reported the highest harvest. In the northeast, Lake Russell and Dawson Forest WMAs had the highest harvest. In west central Georgia, hunters should try Blanton Creek and Big Lazer WMAs. In east central Georgia, Di-Lane Plantation and Yuchi WMAs reported the highest harvest. In the southeast, hunters should visit Paulks Pasture and Sansavilla WMAs. Middle Georgia hunter should try Big Hammock and Beaver Dam WMAs. Finally, in southwest Georgia, River Creek and Chickasawhatchee WMAs had the highest harvest rates.
A WMA license is required for any person 16 years or older who does not possess a valid honorary, sportsman or lifetime license when hunting wild turkey on a WMA or Public Fishing Area. In addition, a valid hunting license and a big game license are required to legally hunt wild turkey. Legal firearms and archery equipment for hunting wild turkey are shotguns, loaded with No. 2 or smaller shot, any muzzleloading firearm, longbow, crossbow or compound bow.
The restoration of the wild turkey is one of Georgia's great conservation success stories. Although the bird population currently hovers around 335,000 statewide, as recently as 1973, the wild turkey population was as low as 17,000. Intensive restoration efforts, such as the restocking of wild birds and establishment of biologically sound hunting seasons facilitated the recovery of wild turkeys in every county.
This successful effort resulted from cooperative partnerships between private landowners, hunters and conservation organizations like the National Wild Turkey Federation and the Wildlife Resources Division. The Georgia Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation has donated more than $3,326,481 since 1985 on projects that benefit wild turkey and other wildlife.

Online Marketing Blog Roundup Posts from the Internet Marketing Blog
The Future of Content Creation: Keyword Research on Steroids
Wired this week published a fascinating profile piece on a company called Demand Media: "The Answer Factory: Fast, Disposable, and Profitable as Hell." The company's approach to content generation almost sounds like science fiction or satire, but it's real, and it works. It's a purely algorithmic, data-driven method of prioritizing content designed to rank on the first page of the Google SERPs: basically keyword research in hyperdrive.
And like it or not, this may be where we're all headed. Keyword-research-driven content production is nothing new; we practice this ourselves (to an extent). Workflow is based on the keyword groups that are currently driving traffic and conversions. If tons of people are finding our site after searching on "keyword organization tools" and we don't have dedi... > Read more
Another Week, Another Battle in the War on SEO
If you've been working in the search marketing industry for long, you know that every so often some scheming troll (or major news corporation) comes along and delivers a rant against SEO, usually including most if not all of the following sentiments: Search engine optimizers are snake oil salesmen (Would that those fighting the war on SEO were also familiar with the war against cliché) SEO is just common sense; it's obvious Most of what SEOs do is smoke and mirrors SEOs are scam artists Information on optimizing a site is freely available on the web, so why pay for it? This week, that troll was a Derek "Powa-jerk" Powezek (hat tip to Ken for the wrestling name), who I guess is a designer (his actual job titles include Creative Director and "Chief of Awesome").
Powazek's rant about how S... > Read more
Seth Godin Is Wrong (Except When He's Right)
Disagreeing with Seth Godin is basically a cliché now, but I'm going to do it anyway—or quibble with him, at least. I like this chart on Seth's blog (who doesn't like charts?) that plots some broad cultural phenomena against two axes, the sophisticated/tacky axis and the techie/tech-phobic axis. The challenge, he says, is in designing structures and transparency that will attract the good guys while burying or repelling those that seek the new technology (because they can't find anywhere else to go).
In other words, you either need to move the top left to the top right (not easy, but possible*), or educate the bottom left of the grid in how to contribute to the culture (really difficult indeed). The best new media (like blogs and possibly twitter) open doors to people who didn't used to... > Read more
Everyone Wants to Ride the Google Wave! P.S. "Everyone" Is Relative
Google this week began sending out invitations for the beta version of Google Wave. Demand for these invites has been pretty high—Matt Cutts tweeted that he's already out of invites (Really Matt Cutts? Can't you like, snap and someone rollerskates up with more invites on a tray?) and one invite sold on eBay for over $150.
Aside from this crazed desperation for invites reminiscent of the search for golden tickets in Willy Wonka (that's right, I compared you to Augustus Gloop), most of the conversation has revolved around the question of success: Will Google Wave be a game changer? Loren Baker of Search Engine Journal lands squarely on the fence: "Could be yes or could be no. It depends on how good it will [be] and how much users will actually use it in their daily online activities." Cer... > Read more
Reputation Management Just Got Harder (And More Expensive)
This was a big week in the blogo- and Twittersphere for poorly received product launches: Two new products from Google and Squidoo threaten to become reputation management nightmares, if they manage to catch on. Ironically, the products also threaten to (further) tarnish the reputations of their creators.
Brands in Public: A Big Misstep from Seth Godin? Seth Godin this week announced a new product/service from Squidoo called Brands in Public: If your brand has any traction at all, people are talking about you. Of course, they've always talked about you, but now they're doing it in writing, in video and in public. Today, Squidoo (a company I founded) is launching Brands in Public. It's a neat idea and I wanted to give you an overview and a first look. You can't control what people are sayin... > Read more
Did We Mention Keywords? Did We Mention Free?
OK, what happened this week on the World Wide Web? A couple of important things: Kanye West made a jackass of himself, and we launched a new free keyword tool! Larry blogged about the tool on Wednesday, covering why and how we developed it, what it offers that other tools don't, and why, as awesome as it is, you still need keyword management to really get somewhere in SEM.
You can read yet more about the tool in our Free Keyword Tool FAQ. Today I want to point to some of the other conversations going on around the newly launched tool, and thank everyone who took the time to mention us on blogs and on Twitter. First up, Aaron Wall over at SEOBook mentioned the keyword tool ("The coolest feature it offers is that it allows you to download thousands of keywords at once") and our keywor... > Read more
Linkbait Formulas: X Things You Can Learn About Y from Z
Following in the footsteps of Ken's very popular post on title tag formulas, I've noticed that search marketing and social media marketing gurus (AKA bloggers) love to write linkbait in the form of "X Things You Can Learn About Y from Z." You can do it too—plug some numbers and concepts into the formula and the post practically writes itself! For best results, follow this handy guide:X should be an integer, preferably between 5 and 10.
Save lists longer than 10 items for your Facebook meme.Y should be a broad, Web 2.0-ish concept like "SEO," "PPC" or "social media." Don't veer too far off course from your job description; that's what Z is for.Z should be a pop culture reference, the geekier the better. Old standbys include Star Wars, The Matrix, The Princess Bride, Monty Python, Trekkies... > Read more
Maslow's Hierarchy for SEOs and Other SEO Advice We Agree With
This Week in Search: SEO Needs You to Need It I saw a lot of links and tweets this week pointing to Virginia Nussey's excellent post on the SEO hierarchy of needs, based on Maslow's hierarchy, a psychological theory that says physiological and safety needs have to come before stuff like love and belonging (I almost typed "blogging").
I've created a handy (and tall) illustration to show where the SEO hierarchy fits into Maslow's hierarchy. An SEO's basic needs for Diet Dr. Pepper and a paycheck must be met before he/she can move up the hierarchy. It goes without saying that for search marketers, link-building is more basic than "intimacy" or "sense of connection," and self-esteem and self-actualization are impossible without proper website optimization. Conveniently these latter two go... > Read more
Know Thy Audience: The Importance of Targeted Marketing
Don't Market for the Sake of Marketing Socialnomics' Erik Qualman is becoming something of a favorite around here for Friday roundups—I can't help it if he posts the most interesting stuff! This week, he offers some free marketing advice to Boeing, whose ongoing advertising campaign as a sponsor for Meet the Press makes it, Qualman says, a poster child for old-school marketing.
He points out some of the mistakes they're making, not the least of which is poor consideration of audience: Is a television or iTunes media buy really the best way to target the airplane buyer? As my wife shouts every time the commercial plays – "Honey can we buy a Boeing Today?" There are only a handful of airplane buyers, why would you spend $100,000 plus on producing a comm... > Read more
The Necessity of PPC, Insights for Search, and Other Odds and Ends
Elisa's on vacation today, so you're stuck with me, which means a much more disjointed Friday Roundup. I promise she'll be back next week. Since we've been pretty self-promotional here on the blog all week I won't bore you with a lot of stuff about interviews Larry's done, interviews I've done, posts Ken's written that got a lot of attention, presentations from SES, etc.
(See what I did there?) Anyway… First off, Google Insights for Search pushed out an update. Insights is a really slick tool; if you're looking to glean some insight into seasonality, or if you just want to decide which query space to target, you can get a really nice high-level look at the way certain searches are trending. Aaron Wall added this data to his tool, and David Harry has the scoop on the updat... > Read more

A New BODY WORLDS Experience Opens May 31 in Buffalo
In summer 2009, a record-breaking 160,000 visitors experienced BODY WORLDS & The Story of the Heart at the Buffalo Museum of Science in just 88 days, doubling the Museum's annual attendance at the time. On May 31, the Museum will welcome Vital, one of the latest additions to the groundbreaking BODY WORLDSexhibitions.
In contrast with the heart-focused BODY WORLDS hosted by BMS in 2009, Vital explores the capabilities of the human body and tells the pressing story of how best to defeat life-threatening diseases through informed choices and lifestyle changes. The 6,000 sq. foot exhibition presents both healthy and diseased specimens designed to show visitors the essentials for human health and wellness. Whole body plastinates, individual organs, organ and arterial configurations and translucent slices give a complete picture of how the body functions.
But this isn't the only new experience the museum has to offer to its visitors this summer. Since 2010, the Buffalo Museum of Science has opened a National Geographic 3D Cinema, its engaging Explorations early childhood gallery for young scientists and two permanent interactive science studios – the health-focused Explore YOU studio presented by Independent Health and Our Marvelous Earth, a space dedicated to weather, geological phenomena and alternative forms of energy that features a wind chamber, touch-screen globe and a weather station at which you can record your own weather forecast.
On June 22, the Museum will open its third of eight science studios. In Motion will explore physics, mechanical motion, engineering and organic motion through interactive displays and two "makerspaces" – hands-on workshops offering aninformal, play-focused environment that encourages and cultivates an interest in science, technology and design using new technologies and basic tools.
"Vital presents us with an opportunity to showcase these new permanent spaces to new audiences and provide a full museum experience to guests of all ages this summer," says Mark Mortenson, president and CEO of the Buffalo Museum of Science.
For those who were unable to visit during the 2009 BODY WORLDS engagement, this is a second chance to join over 36 million visitors worldwide who have experienced the anatomical exhibitions in the BODY WORLDS saga and rediscover the Buffalo Museum of Science.
Tickets to BODY WORLDS Vital are $12-15 for non-members and just $5-6 for BMS Members. The Museum encourages guests to buy tickets in advance at www.sciencebuff.org as they are timed by the half hour and based on availability. The Museum is also selling tickets to a special Vital Premiere event on Thursday, May 30 for those who wish to experience the exhibition before it opens to the general public.

I am one of the many people who love art and music. There may be difference between the two but music is also a form of art. I love it because there is this feeling of freedom when I am expressing myself through singing or playing of instruments. It is also amazing and sometimes surreal to listen to artists whose lyrics are very relatable. One great of that is Kina Grannis.
Who is Kina Grannis?
Kina is a budding music artist with a truly promising talent. When I say this, I mean she's the kind that I am sure would not become popular because of autotune and highly commercial voice and soundtracks. Many will surely agree with me if I say her is an art, a music that really speaks of what and how we all feel about certain things such as love and life. Unlike other superstar music pop icon today such as Lady Gaga and Beyonce, the rising star has a voice that cuts through the air. It's very clear and crisp, yet at the same time so emotional and overflowing with feelings.
When she was young she used to sing with her sisters while doing household chores such as the dishes. When she turned 15, she discovered a classical guitar owned by her aunt. That moment, it was like magic because she found something she can use to express herself without limitations. This is why on her 16th birthday she got a guitar as a gift. From then on, she began creating very human and passionate melodies and lyrics. The next moments are performances in numerous small and big events and venues.
Elements – Her sophomore album
Ms. Grannis broke into the mainstream industry when she released her debut album Stairwells. With her breezy vocals backed up by light percussion and gauzy strings, she instantly landed in the Billboard charts. Obviously, she's a made a name for herself because of her perseverance, determination and of course raw talent. Continue reading →

From what your walk says about your orgasm to the sex positions that burn the most calories, don't miss these love and sex must-reads from around the web.
Work It, Girl
Think your sexy strut attracts the guys? Well it does (duh!) -- but it might not be your confidence they're after. A new study from Ask Men shows how your walk indicates how many times you orgasm during sex. While we think that's a little bogus, it does give us yet another reason to be jealous of those Victoria Secret supermodels if it's true.
Your Multipurpose Vagina
If you had to find the perfect hiding place for a knife, cell phone and credit card, where would it be? Your pockets? A large purse? Or your….vagina? According The Frisky, there are women who have hid all of that (and more!) in their lady parts. We only have two words: how and ow!
Bang and Burn
It's really hot outside and that daily run feels like so much work when you're already sweating. Skip the gym and do something a little dirtier inside (with air conditioning!): have sex! Cowgirl burns 300 positions while doing the deed standing up burns 600. Check out more calories counts on How About We and for tips to make summer sex even hotter, read this.
I Love Him, He Loves Me Not
Are you making someone a priority who isn't even making you an option? Don't be that girl (and sell yourself way too short!) by reading these tips from Gal Time on how to avoid a one-sided relationship. (If you're still in denial -- it's okay, we've all been there -- read this to see if he's just not that into you. Sorry!)
Use Your Noodle
Turned off by mama's boys? Can't tell if your guy is arrogant or an a**hole? Don't read in between the texts, instead -- look at his plate! Bon Appetit explains what the first-date plate says about your potential mate. Let's just say Mac 'N Cheese may be delicious, but you'll want to say "Check please!" if he orders it.
It's no secret that guys love sex. So a surefire way to get that super cute guy to like you is to bring up sex immediately, right? If you're hoping for a second date, Your Tango says wrong. Read here to find out when it's safe to have the sex talk, and when it's better left for the bedroom.


text: It's a fact: People falling off of something called the Rotating Surfboard of Death face-first into muddy water is just plain funny. And it's made even funnier when said people happen to be competing on a crazy old Japanese game show that has been dubbed (not translated, mind you, but dubbed willy-nilly) for American audiences. You see, MXC: Most Extreme Elimination Challenge (Unrated, 262 mins., 2003) isn't just about people bashing their heads into rolling logs and jumping crotch-first onto rocks...well, okay, it is mostly about that. But the Americanized personalities of Vic Romano, Captain Tenneal, and Co. make the play-by-play commentary as entertaining as the actual challenges themselves. The reason it works is because the actors stay away from making fun of or even acknowledging Japanese culture or contestants. ''That is our one rule,'' says a producer on a commentary track. ''We do not ever make any Asian references ever.'' Of course, one of the great mysteries has always been, What are the hosts and contestants on that old Japanese game show really saying? Which is why the inclusion of a subtitled episode of the original series, Takeshi's Castle, is such a tasty treat.

What Causes Antibiotic Resistant Superbugs?
Are you wondering just exactly where antibiotic-resistant "superbugs" come from, and how we have contributed to creating them? Or are you looking for a good way to explain the topic to your kids? Then this story-book slideshow on Development of Antibiotic Resistant S. Aureus should provide enlightenment. It is written with humorous animation and at a level that will help even your grade-school child follow along.
Timmy Plante, aka Implante, who created the story of antibiotic resistant bacteria, tells Boing-Boing: "I'm a TA for a first year med school class and made this module on how antibiotics have driven the development of the MRSA 'superbug' that you hear about in the news. Nothing like making a module for medical students at a 3rd grade reading level. Enjoy!"
The continued penetration of antibiotics into markets where there is no proven health benefits -- check the labels of your soap, your dishwashing detergent, your toothpaste, for examples -- suggests that the average consumer has not understood that putting all of these antibiotics into our environment could have real downsides. The virtually unstoppable expansion of factory farms further contributes to antibiotic resistance. Perhaps a little scientific education could boost our resistance to clever antibiotic marketing ploys as a starting point to stopping the spread of antibiotic resistant superbugs.

The Obama administration's Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is under fire after announcing a proposed executive decree to make American neighborhoods more "diverse." Under the new HUD policy, dubbed "Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing," the federal government will gather and track data on "segregation" and "discrimination" across America before deploying a wide range of social-engineering schemes to ensure more "diversity" in U.S. neighborhoods. Some analysts say there is an even broader agenda at work.
While details about the latest anti-constitutional plot remain scarce, news reports and official documents suggest the administration will use a combination of federal bribes and coercion to achieve its aims. The goal, in essence, is to force state and local governments into submission using a "carrot and stick" approach. Among the many federal targets in enforcing centrally planned diversity: local zoning regulations, public transportation, land-use policies, government housing agencies, and more.
"Unfortunately, in too many of our hardest hit communities, no matter how hard a child or her parents work, the life chances of that child, even her lifespan, is determined by the zip code she grows up in. This is simply wrong," claimed HUD Secretary Shaun Donovan, a strong advocate of using federal power to create "Sustainable Communities," while announcing the controversial diversity plan at the NAACP convention last month. "Make no mistake: this is a big deal. With the HUD budget alone, we are talking about billions of dollars."
Praising the NAACP and blasting the House GOP's proposed budget, Donovan urged more activism "from the courts to the streets" in order to achieve what he called "progress" — bigger and more expensive federal programs on everything from healthcare and education to housing. Donovan boasted about the number of people who were awarded damages due to "housing discrimination" — some 25,000 — and promised more to come. He also called on convention attendees to continue lobbying Congress to give more money and power to the administration as it works to transform America.
"This proposed rule represents a 21st century approach to fair housing, a step forward to ensuring that every American is able to choose to live in a community they feel proud of — where they have a fair shot at reaching their full potential in life," Donovan continued. "For the first time ever, HUD will provide data for every neighborhood in the country, detailing the access African American, Latino, Asian, and other communities have to local assets, including schools, jobs, transportation, and other important neighborhood resources that can play a role in helping people move into the middle class."
According to the administration's summary of its latest proposed "rule," which has already been entered into the Federal Register, there are four primary goals behind the effort. The first one is "improved integrated living patterns" and "overcoming historic patterns of segregation." Next is "reducing racial and ethnic concentrations of poverty," followed by "reducing disparities by race, color, religion, sex, familial status, national origin, or disability in access to community assets such as education, transit access, and employment." Finally, HUD's fourth objective is "responding to disproportionate housing needs by protected class."
To achieve its utopian vision — critics say it is more of Obama's promised agenda to "fundamentally transform" the country — the administration plans to gather vast amounts of data on American housing patterns. The information will be provided to "participants": virtually every entity receiving federal taxpayer money via HUD, including state and local governments. Armed with the data, authorities would then have to work toward making the administration's agenda a reality by changing policies as required.

MAPCO says some of its customers' credit card information could be at risk, following a security breach.
The Brentwood-based convince store operator hasn't said how the breach occurred, but gives a few more details on its website:
"Third party hackers used malware to access the payment card processing systems in our stores between March 19-25, April 14-15, and April 20-21, 2013. These systems transmit certain card information needed for the approval of transactions. "
"The hackers may have stolen information that could potentially be used to initiate fraudulent credit and debit card transactions…As soon as we learned of the malware, we took steps to disable the malware and further strengthen the security of our payment card processing systems."
MAPCO says its notifying customers who might be affected. It has also hired a computer forensics firm to investigate.

deb lenny 64 - mysql-virtual_client.cf: table lookup prob
Running 220.127.116.11 isp3 on deb lenny 64 from perfect server setup. I up'd the mysql max_connections and max_user_connections and it's fixed many problems but we do get several of these every so often:
warning: mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_client.cf: table lookup problem
And this is from a known user/domain to known user/domain coming from a remote connection outside the server. The user gets email and the sending user send just fine, but sometimes it happens with different people at differetn times.
Right after this is what happens:
postfix/smtpd[9667]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from adsl-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx.sip.asm.bellsouth.net[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]: 451 4.3.5 <adsl-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx.sip.asm.bellsouth.net[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]>: Client host rejected: Server configuration error; from=<firstname.lastname@example.com> to=<user2@validdomain> proto=ESMTP helo=<User1PC>
And the User1 gets a bounceback saying the same.
I saw an earlier post where the suggestion was to update isp3, but I'm already on the latest version.

In addition to the Scarlett Johansson Super Bowl ad, part of the reason that SodaStream has gotten so much attention — as opposed to many other products on the boycott Israel list — is because it presents an ethical conundrum for its lefty customers. SodaStream has become a symbol for health and environmentalism, but also for the Israeli occupation of the West Bank.
In other words, if you want to make your soda at home, but you're also a BDS adherent — or even if you're practicing limited, West-Bank-only BDS — you're mostly out of luck. As a recent New York Magazine story pointed out, "Even the most fervent anti-Zionists will admit that, for seltzer addicts, SodaStream's competitors leave something to be desired."
But what happens if you're a SodaStream detractor who happens to own a SodaStream — whether by dint of a gift, or a purchase made previous to a political awakening (or maybe even a guilty one-time acquisition)? Rather than toss their seltzer makers, some SodaStream owners are taking a cue from hackers who have figured out how to use the machines without continuing to support the company by buying its CO2. For the hackers, it's all about saving money — a SodaStream CO2 cartridge, which must be replaced every two to four months, costs between $15 and $45. For the anti-occupation SodaStream owners, on the other hand, it's political.
As counterintuitive as it may be, when you see Scarlett Johansson's Super Bowl ad on Sunday, promoting a product that lets you make carbonated drinks at home, try to see through bubbles and think about the future of the Middle East.
There is nothing wrong with the product itself. Under normal circumstances, I would buy SodaStream and recommend it to my friends. But the circumstances under which the product is made are not normal. And because Israel's occupation of the West Bank is such an anomaly, as much as I may like Scarlett (and seltzer), I will not buy SodaStream, not until it moves its headquarters away from a West Bank settlement.
But before I discuss bubbles, a few words of clarification are in order. My organization is staunchly pro-Israel. Americans for Peace Now, the sister organization of Israel's peace movement, is a Zionist organization, proudly committed to Israel's security and wellbeing. I love Israel and I'm worried sick about its future as a democracy and a Jewish state.
It is because of my love for Israel that I don't buy products made by companies that are located in West Bank settlements, and that I urge the millions watching the Super Bowl on Sunday to look beyond the luminous actress and the fizz — and to consider the future of Israel and the Middle East.
1 — It's delicious. What Jew doesn't like seltzer?
2 — It's eco-friendly, saving massive amounts of otherwise virtually indestructible plastic waste.
3 — It could feasibly pay for itself.
4 — According to MSNBC, it's the largest job provider for local Palestinian workers.
5 — It comes in invigorating Energy Drink, tipsy Happy Hour Cocktail and relaxing Diet Tea flavors.
6 — SodaStream's factory is located in the settlement Mishor Adumim, in a strategic bloc of settlements that — if completed — would make a contiguous Palestinian state impossible.
7 — It has fraudulently used the "made in Israel" label on its products when, in fact, they were made in the occupied Palestinian territories.
8 — It is also arguable that it doesn't pay for itself unless you "regularly buy name brand can soda and pay full cost for it."
9 — According to WhoProfits, it was guilty of worker exploitation until the workers' rights organization Kav LaOved got involved. It also takes advantage of Israeli policies that make it cheaper for it to be across the Green Line, in occupied Palestinian territory.
10 — SodaStream is located in Area C of the West Bank, which is under complete civil and military control of the IDF. That means Palestinian entrepreneurs, business owners, and industries face significant barriers that force them to turn to the settlements for employment.
11 — It also comes in Kool-Aid. And they want you to drink it.

Scarlett Johansson signed on this week as the new "global ambassador" for the West Bank-based Israeli company SodaStream and will be featured in the company's 2014 Super Bowl advertisement. For SodaStream, this deal makes sense: Johansson is remarkably sexy, eco-friendly, loves the product, and happens to be Jewish. It makes particular sense since the company's stock recently took a hit and its image has been tarnished by the fact that its factory is located in the Mishor Adumim industrial park in Israel's occupied territories.
But for Johansson, who last October mentioned to Harper's Bazaar that she might be interested in a political career, this deal makes a lot less sense. In fact, it may have forced her into her first public stance on foreign policy — one that is way outside the official American consensus.
This 29-year-old actress is no stranger to politics. Johansson campaigned for Kerry in 2004 and more heavily for Obama in 2008 and 2012. She spent time boosting the youth vote in Iowa in 2008, did a short campus speaking tour, and co-hosted a fundraiser featuring pro-Obama clothing and accessories. She even appeared in the Will.I.Am song "Yes We Can" inspired by Obama's 2008 New Hampshire primary speech. In her unpretentious 2012 DNC speech, she said that she was there to "use whatever attention" she was "fortunate enough to receive to shed the spotlight on what's at stake for all of us." But with SodaStream, her considerable attention-getting powers are being used for something far less admirable: to advertise for a company located in a place President Obama and Secretary Kerry and Secretary Clinton have called "illegitimate" and "an obstacle to peace" and a "cause for concern."
Move over Bud Lite and GM, SodaStream is coming to the Super Bowl XLVII. While the Israeli-made home soda maker will not be seen in the stands, it will be viewed on TV screens across the country and around the world, making it the first Israeli product to be advertised in a Super Bowl commercial.
With record third quarter revenues and sales increases, it appears that SodaStream is ready to drop something in the environs of $3.8 million on a 30-second spot.
Those who follow the advertising business may be wondering if the company, which has been publicly traded on Nasdaq since November 2010) will change concepts for its Super Bowl ad, given the frustration it has endured recently as a result of its current commercial showing hundreds of soft drink bottles exploding when a person uses a SodaStream machine. The message is obvious—you can save a lot of plastic (2,000 bottles per year, the ad tells us) and a lot of money by buying a SodaStream.
SodaStream claims it is simply "setting the bubbles free," as it slogan goes, but Clearcast, the organization that pre-approves television advertising in the UK, banned the commercial on the grounds that it "denigrates" the bottled drink industry. In response, SodaStream is investigating its legal options.

If everyone thinks like you guys ...then we ARE finished!
Beck exposes DC corruption and connects it to the ones
perpetrating it but doesn't present a realistic solution to
eliminate it.
Dude, please do not misinterpret my message. I'm a huge Beck fan. I'm just saying, I hope the dude's outta the hospital for everyone's sake .......i.e., if the government is taking over the healthcare system, and if the healthcare system includes hospitals, then maybe the safest place for Glen Beck isn't necessarily a hospital, that's all.

Graphics giant Nvidia, which recently celebrated a billionth GeForce chip sold, is adamant to become the key silicon provider for portable gear. It's no secret that Tegra 2 has "failed to launch" in 2010 and displace chips from Qualcomm, Samsung and Texas Instruments in world's most popular smartphones and tablets, all of which are built on the ARM ecosystem.
Learning from its Windows Mobile disaster, Nvidia has plotted an ambitious plan to put its silicon inside more gadgets by focusing on Android and improving its Tegra architecture.
At CES 2011 we learned that existing Tegra 2 chips will power flagship Android devices like the LG Optimus 2X and Motorola Atrix 4G smartphones, as well as Motorola's Xoom tablet.
That's just a taste of things to come in the near future. Think new breed of portable devices incorporating glass-less 3D displays, Blu-ray support and enhanced graphics, paving the way for stereoscopic 3D gaming, exciting user interfaces and other perks.
Motorola Atrix 4G runs Nvidia's Tegra 2 chip. The phone can be docked via a special accessory to serve as a portable computer, thanks to its speedy processor and graphics.
In short, your mobile phone will become kinda computer, Mike Rayfield, Nvidia's General Manager for Tegra Business Unit, told Hexus in an exclusive interview:
In 25 years I can't remember a show that was this impactful. I've known for a long time that Tegra 2 is a kick-ass part – your phone is now a mobile PC.
All the pieces of this puzzle are finally falling into place. Nvidia has finally settled its licensing dispute with Intel for $1.5 billion and introduced ARM processor designs into its ecosystem. The latter deal is crucial for it enables Nvidia to merge ubiquitous processor designs from fabless British chip designer ARM Holdings with its own GPU designs, the initiative known as Project Denver.
It could finally enable Nvidia to crack open mobile space where ARM-based chip designs are a norm. An ARM CPU ticking inside a Tegra system-on-a-chip [SoC] also benefits from Nvidia's GPU architecture known for the speedy communication between the cores and the integrated memory controller.
Current-generation Tegra 2 chips for smartphones and tablets include the AP20H and T20 SoC solutions, both built around ARM's 1GHz dual-core Cortex-A9 processor. They are to be replaced soon, however, with Tegra 2 3D architecture consisting of the T25 and AP25 chips for smartphones and tablets, respectively. Upping the CPU frequency to 1.2GHz and adding built-in support for 3D displays makes these chips the world's first mobile 3D processors, according to a leaked Nvidia's roadmap seen below.
nVidia Tegra Product Roadmap slide from leaked presentation located somewhere in Far Eastern cyber wilderness
Provided vendors embed these chips in their products, your next smartphone or tablet will come with autostereoscopic 3D displays that needn't special glasses, like on the recently unveiled Nintendo 3DS handheld, paving the way for gaming in stereo 3D on mobile devices. There are several players on the autostereoscopic market, such as Sharp, xyz3D, MasterImage 3D and others. For more on this, check out the below interview by Neil Schneider from MTBS3D with Roy Taylor, executive vice president and general manager with MasterImage 3D.
Game developers are already taking notice. Nvidia at CES showed off a demo of the upcoming role-playing game Soulcraft, being developed by MobileBits and published by Electronic Arts's Chillingo subsidiary. Optimized for the current-gen AP20H and T20 chips, the game runs smoothly on the LG Optimus 2X smartphone even though it uses a lot of shaders – something we see as a capital advantage for Nvidia in this field. Nvidia's competitors mostly do not develop their own GPU IP, but rather license PoverVR technology from Imagination Technologies. The problem with such approach is that the competition uses Tile-Based Rendering principle, while nVidia utilizes its ultra-successful GeForce architecture and more efficient Shader principle.
As you can see for yourself in the clip below, Soulcraft proves that even current-generation Tegra architecture packs in enough oomph to drive amazing 3D games with complex graphics. Apple, are you seeing this?
While the upcoming Tegra 2 3D architectire is effectively a speed bump for the existing Tegra 2 design, the forthcoming T30 and AP30 chips represent a generational shift compared to what's currently available on smartphones and tablets.
The T30 tablet chip sports four ultra-low power Cortex-A9 processors [quad-core] clocked to up to 1.5GHz and three times faster graphics that can output Blu-ray video and drive displays with up to 1920×1200 pixel resolution.
Its AP30 smartphone counterpart, available in dual- and quad-core flavors, will support up to 1366×768 pixel resolution. And you thought Apple's Retina display at 960×640 pixel resolution and 326 pixels-per-inch density was special?
If Nvidia's roadmap holds true and display vendors keep pace, expect 720p [HD Ready] smartphones and 1080p [Full HD] tablets to be launched at CES 2012. First samples of the T30 and AP30 should be available in the fourth quarter of this year and not at the Mobile World Congress next month, as many blogs incorrectly reported.
This information came to light in Nvidia's leaked roadmap and Rayfield's comment made in the Hexus interview:
I'm going to come pretty close to my cadence of a launch every year. It will be in production around the same time as my competitors' first dual-cores will.
Looking at 2013 and beyond, Nvidia is working on the Maxwell generation described as the "first end-product using Project Denver," resulting in a significant performance increase over Kepler architecture. Nvidia hopes the high-end Maxwell chip will go down in history as the world's first consumer solution that will effortlessly run full-blown operating systems from companies such as Microsoft and Google entirely off a GPU core. Note that Nvidia abandoned its work on a Fermi-powered Linux build.
Nvidia's Architectural Roadmap revealed at last year's GPU Technology Conference
Such an aggressive planning on Nvidia's part puts a lot of pressure on companies like Apple, the consumer electronics powerhouse that has chosen to ignore Nvidia and is instead pursuing its own custom silicon with the A4 chip. Even Microsoft said that Windows 8 will support ARM architectures through a unified code base designed to run efficiently on both desktop computers and mobile devices, putting Nvidia into position to reap the benefits of its ARM licensing agreement.

As Wentworth Miller proves in ''Prison Break'' (the new season starts Monday!), skin art marks movie and TV roles in our memories. Here are some of our favorites, from Robert De Niro in ''Cape Fear'' to Katee Sackhoff in ''Battlestar Galactica''
The Night of the Hunter (1955)
Sorry, Ozzy, but Mitchum's cold-blooded killer had tattooed fists long before you inked your name across yours. Torn between evil and righteousness, the religious fanatic marries and then murders widows for their money (thinking he's helping God by ridding the world of carnal temptations). The ''L-O-V-E'' across one hand and the ''H-A-T-E'' across the other says it all.

Vision: How to Change Our Laws So That Corporations Don't Trump Communities
The following is excerpted from the recently released book, The Rights of Nature: The Case for a Universal Declaration on the Rights of Mother Earth , produced by the Council of Canadians, Global Exchange and Fundacion Pachamama. This book reveals the path of a movement driving transformation of our human relationship with nature away from domination and towards balance. This book gathers the wisdom of indigenous cultures, scientists, activists small farmers, spiritual leaders and US communities who seek a different path for protecting nature by establishing Nature's Rights in law and culture. In addition to this excerpt, the book includes essays from Vandana Shiva, Desmond Tutu, Thomas Goldtooth, Eduardo Galeano, Maude Barlow and many others. Copies of the book may be obtained through Global Exchange.
It takes thousands of years for individual drops of rain to maneuver through silent passages and gently accumulate into underground aquifers. Purified and enriched over the millennia by mineral deposits deep in the earth, groundwater is the sacred lifeblood of local watersheds upon which all life -- including human communities -- depend. Yet it takes no time at all to destroy this delicate balance. In fact, all it takes is a simple piece of paper.
Steeped in colonial history, Nottingham, New Hampshire, could be a picture postcard of quaint village life in New England. Yet in 2001, this tiny rural village of 4,000 residents became the poster child for too familiar "site-fights" between small towns seeking to protect local water and large multinational corporations seeking to extract it. It was then that the USA Springs Corporation applied to the state for a permit to extract more than 400,000 gallons of water a day from Nottingham's local aquifer to bottle and sell overseas.
Corporate water withdrawals -- siphoning off hundreds of thousands of gallons a day from local aquifers -- impact both surface and groundwater resources. They deplete drinking water and can contaminate aquifers and wells. In addition, withdrawals dry up streams, wetlands, and rivers, as well as reduce lake levels, damaging habitat and harming wildlife.
For seven years the community of Nottingham came together to stop their water from being mined. Upon discovering that our own laws forbid communities from saying "no" to the wide array of dirty, destructive and unwanted practices allowed by law, they attempted to protect their local groundwater using all the tools available under the law. They did everything "right" by traditional, conventional environmental activism. They lobbied their state legislature, petitioned their government, testified at hearings, protested, rallied, educated and organized their neighbors and filed lawsuits. But as is so often the case, it just wasn't enough.
When the people of Nottingham beseeched their state environmental agency, the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services, to take effective action and protect the aquifer, their requests went unmet. Instead of helping them protect their water, the agency was in fact responsible for issuing permits to the corporation to take it.
Is the system broken or working perfectly?
The experience of Nottingham is shared by thousands of communities across the United States and around the world that discover that their government officials and agencies -- ostensibly in place to protect them -- are, in practice, serving other interests.
The question that the people of Nottingham were forced to ask is, "why?" Why are corporations allowed to override community concerns and put destructive projects in our midst? Why do our environmental laws and regulations, rather than put in place protections for the environment, instead seem to be written to exploit it? And why is our government helping a corporation to extract water from a community and sell it for profit, when the impacts from such projects are so significant?

BSH Home Appliances Corporation announced the termination of its relationship with Hadco, a distributor of BSH products in the Southeastern U.S., effective as of Feb. 21, 2005.
The appliance maker will now serve the market direct without appointing any distributor in the region. "We at BSH are very excited over the great enthusiasm that dealers in the Southeast have shown for BSH and its products," Franz Bosshard, president & CEO of BSH, said in a statement. "Our entry into the market has been very successful thus far."
BSH said it has already established new offices, warehousing, and shipping infrastructure in the Southeast and hired new employees to support this business locally. The company now sells direct to all of the Northeast and Southeast U.S. territories, along the Atlantic Coast (with the exception of Florida, where BSH is served by its distributor, ARD).
The move complies with the terms of an agreement it reached with Hadco last year, where BSH acquired HADCO's Northeastern U.S. operations and gained the right to enter the Southeast direct and to terminate the relationship upon notice at any time thereafter, according to Mr. Bosshard. "The terms of the agreement are confidential," he said. "This move is unrelated to, and does not affect, any other BSH distributor. We greatly value our distributors, and we appreciate their loyalty, professionalism, and efforts."
The company's Southeastern area includes the U.S. states of Alabama, Delaware, Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and Washington, D.C., and selected parts of Arkansas, Florida, and Mississippi.
