While the dough rises…
Good morning! I woke up feeling more like myself today. Thank heavens. I mixed up some pita dough and plan to get as much done as I can while it rises. My favorite pita recipe remains the one from "Bread Making: A Home Course" by Lauren Chattman. I published the recipe in issue 2 of CraftSanity […]

Strawberry Jam: One of the Highlights of Michigan Summers
Strawberries are ripe for the picking here in West Michigan and I got a little carried away this year. Armed with the tasty jam recipe by Lydia Adams (published on p. 3 of CraftSanity Magazine issue 3), my family picked 30 pounds of strawberries this past Wednesday at Krupp Farms in Comstock Park. There's an […]

Strawberry Fields Forever
The sky was looking iffy yesterday morning, but the girls and I headed out to the strawberry patch anyway, almost daring the clouds to rain on us. They did not. Chilly and overcast, the conditions turned out to be perfect for picking and photography. Within 30 minutes we had plucked 14 pounds of juicy berries […]

CraftSanity On TV: A Potato Bag Tutorial For Microwaving Tasty Potatoes On The Fly
I love baked potatoes. But the potato setting on my microwave has failed me so many times, leaving me with shriveled and lifeless potatoes. Thanks to a fellow Michigan crafter I've stopped shriveling potatoes. Gerri Nielsen gave me one of her fabric potato bags and I swear it's taken the frustration out of rapid potato […]

Please Pass the Applesauce
How do you like these apples? Lovely, eh? There's nothing like a bushel of fresh, locally grown apples to welcome fall. Sunday night I made two batches of applesauce and probably have enough apples to make at least four more. The plan is to load up the freezer and serve this delightful sauce warm as […]

This issue is available to AIP employees throughout this week on the InSite home page
By H. Frederick Dylla, Executive Director & CEO
In my column last week, I spoke about the importance of two meetings for scholarly publishers—London Online and the Frankfurt Book Fair—and how AIP benefits by connecting with our partners and customers. On the larger scale, coming together with many other leading publishers has proven invaluable to the industry as a whole.
At the 1999 Frankfurt Book Fair, several scholarly publishing leaders witnessed a demonstration of the prototype Digital Object Identifier (DOI) and recognized at once that the interoperability of publication data through a broad journal reference linking system was within their grasp. So those "competitors" formed a nonprofit organization of their own—Publishers International Linking Association, Inc. The group's first initiative was CrossRef, a massive infrastructure that now links reference data for 42 million articles, books, and other scholarly publications across 3,200 publishers and societies. Its size and functionality continue to grow, as does its usefulness to the community.
CrossRef sets the guidelines for publishers to assign a permanent DOI to each work and makes the reference metadata (title, authors, institutions, and abstracts) available to CrossRef users. Through the scalable linking system, researchers can click on a reference citation in a journal and link to the cited article. The group's second project, CrossCheck, is a powerful screening system for journal editors and reviewers to uncover plagiarism. AIP makes this service available to our journal editors.
AIP has been fortunate to be represented on the CrossRef Board of Directors for many years. Terry Hulbert, Director of Business Development, is our current appointee. The annual general meeting, which is open to all members, rotates between Europe and the United States. The 2010 meeting occurred in London on November 16. I attended and made a pitch for adding to the metadata a new line of information—the funder of the research that led to the article. In light of the ongoing debate concerning public access to federally funded research results, the information would be a useful public service.
Most of the meeting's discussion centered on CrossRef's newest project, CrossMark. Slated for release in 2011, CrossMark will electronically "watermark" the official version of record (VoR) of a scholarly work. After publication, an article can be enhanced, corrected, updated, and even retracted. Publishers agree to care for the VoR and safeguard its integrity through any future changes, thus assuring researchers that the article they are studying is authentic, peer reviewed, and fully updated. That guarantee by publishers was one of the salient points made by the Scholarly Publishing Roundtable in its report to the House Committee on Science and Technology in January 2010. The new service will aid publishers in this important validation function.
While competition keeps our industry in a healthy state of flux, collaboration ensures that the industry itself stays relevant.
What do you get when you use online discussion forums to connect 102 high-school physics classes with 148 physicists for three weeks?
The answer: 7405 posts. This was the result of the fall 2010 session of Adopt-a-Physicist, a program run twice a year by Sigma Pi Sigma. Adopt-a-Physicist connects high-school physics students with people who have degrees in physics. Working in areas ranging from particle-physics research to freelance writing, the participating physicists embody a broad spectrum of careers, backgrounds, interests, and educational levels. Participating classes are from high schools all across the country, and abroad.
At the start of the program, classes search through Facebook-like profiles of physicists and choose up to five they want to "adopt." By adopting a physicist, a class is registering for a discussion forum hosted by that physicist. The discussion forums are active for three weeks, and each physicist can be adopted by no more than three classes, making lively, in-depth discussions possible.
Questions posed by students range from academic (What is dark matter?) to silly (Do you like tacos?). But even the silly questions can be helpful—teachers continually say the greatest benefit of participating is that students see that physicists are "real" people too. Below is one exchange from this latest session.
Student: Is there anything about your work or your field that never ceases to amaze or excite you even after having gained many years of experience?
Physicist: I have spent so many years with my nose deep in this field that it is easy to lose track of how amazing what I do really is...I am awed by the insight of the physicists who worked out basic quantum mechanics and tested the ideas. I remain excited by the double slit interference patterns generated not just by waves of light, but by electrons and single photons described by probability waves. And, because this is science, our knowledge is not static. I am continually amazed by the cleverness of my colleagues in thinking of ways to push the boundaries.
It's that time of year again when staff members should verify their personal information stored in the Employease Network—including address and home and cell phone numbers. Employease serves as AIP's point source of employees' contact information. This information flows to Payroll and indicates where we should send your W-2 form (and your paycheck should the need arise). In the case of an emergency, HR can use the information stored in Employease for business continuity; should an event necessitate that all staff be contacted at once, the data can be quickly pulled from the network. Log on now and make sure that you are up-to-date!
Monday–Friday, December 13–17
A dozen AIP staff members will be participating in this event, which grows larger every year—participants topped 16,000 in 2009. AIP's delegation will include attendees, presenters, exhibitors, and members of the press corps. Stay tuned for news in AIP Matters. In the meantime, catch meeting highlights throughout the week on Facebook and Twitter.
Tuesday, December 14
Wednesday, December 15
Through Monday, December 20
Tuesday, December 21
We invite your feedback to this newsletter via email to email@example.com.

Do you think wearing on-body cameras on duty should be mandatory?
Elasky rose and aimed his Gun at the robber using a Weaver stance, his feet centered and his body positioned for as much cover as the counter could afford. Then he opened fire.
The hair on the back of his neck stood on end as though the very air about him suddenly became ionized with some ill-defined threat. The officer couldn't suppress the sensation that something was terribly wrong.
An "ambush" alarm brought West St. Paul officers to a credit union where they discovered a robbery in progress.
The red dot of the suspect's laser sights pinballed back and forth between the Crown Vic and Hernandez.
Weber fixated on the short barrel of Johnson's shotgun, mentally committing himself to fire his Glock if Johnson elevated the weapon to a certain level.
Kennedy could see something was wrong. Molander gave her a "we've got a liar" smirk, and she knew that anytime a passenger started playing a felon's game of Truth or Consequences, there's usually a reason.
Barton's gun swung toward him, and its barrel spit fire. Flashes of amber split the night as Barton's Ruger blazed at Dunnigan a mere 10 feet away.
Officer Holly Mong had just gotten into the vehicle in her driveway and no sooner closed the driver's side door than it flew back open. She was being carjacked.
Ellison then went to work, ramming the door with his shoulder. He repeatedly charged the door, slamming it as hard as his body could withstand.
Sgt. Burnett had worn the vest religiously throughout his career, but on this day he told his wife that for the first time he would go to work without it. She wasn't happy with his decision.

This interview was conducted by Pascal Françaix and translated from French by Frédérick Durand
European Film Review: I first discovered you in La Tante de Frankenstein (Frankenstein's Aunt), a superb TV series that paid tribute to the great figures of the horror film. You had a marvelous role.
Jacques: I'd love to have that one on tape. I didn't know when it was going to be shown, so I've never seen it - I never go to the projection of the rushes. I had the feeling it was going to be a good one. The director was crazy - a poet, ex painter and friend of Fellini. It was lots of fun. The only bad side was Viveca Lindfors, who hated the director from the first day. She was saying: "As far as I'm concerned, you're a shit. I've signed the contract, but won't agree with you. My character will smoke a cigar, even if you don't like it. Go f**k yourself". I actually liked Viveca; she'd been a huge star 30 or 40 years earlier.
European Film Review: There was also Ferdy Mayne, in the role of Dracula...
Jacques: Yes, he was a charming man. An old, genteel homosexual. There was also Eddie Constantine, who was very friendly (if a bit of a jerk).
European Film Review: Any favourites amongst your roles?
Jacques: On film, Mondo Candido. I played Dr. Pangloss. It was a six or seven month shoot, but the film was a mess. It was badly edited.
European Film Review: There were three directors : Prosperi, Jacopetti and Quarantoto.
Jacques: No. Quarantoto had nothing to do with it, it was all Jacopetti and Prosperi. I hesitated before doing it because they were, basically, fascists. They'd done a mondo flick, Africa Addio, where they'd filmed torture footage without intervening. I knew the producer though, he was a nice guy, a communist, and he persuaded me to do it.

Book 297/725
This book was added to our catalog on Wednesday 26 December, 2012.
It's a comedic case of mistaken identity when construction worker Jason Landers is kidnapped at gunpoint from the local mini-mart by Gina Johnson, the Salvador drug cartel's deadly hit girl. An erotic strip search leads Jason to a night of scorching passion as he uses his sexual prowess to pacify an insatiable Gina. When his attempt to formulate an escape plan fails, he's resigned to living life on the lam until he is rescued by none other than the real Rico Perez.
Eden Scott is a born and bred Jersey girl which she uses as an excuse to write about crazy gangsters and their ditzy girlfriends. She's a former military officer, IRS agent, event planner and kindergarten teacher (she's well-rounded, if nothing else). Her hobbies include reading, more reading and a little writing on the side.
Story Excerpt
Jason squinted at the sexy brunette who glanced at him for a third time while he waited in line at his neighborhood mini-mart. He thought she was staring at him like he owed her money or something. Damn, she looked good, but he didn't recognize her. She probably just thought she knew him. People said he had one of those faces.
What did it matter? A love connection wasn't in the cards tonight, not with the sledgehammer pounding between his temples. He glanced away and stared at the back of the navy pea coat in front of him.
His crew had worked overtime in twelve-hour shifts in an effort to complete a group of over-priced condos before the Christmas holidays, a mere two weeks away. Drywall powder coated his tan skin like he'd been dusted with flour. Despite the freezing outdoor temperature, the black paisley bandana molded around his head, surgeon-style, stood stiff with dried sweat. Gritty insulation granules bit into him like fire ants, making him want to scratch places he shouldn't in public. God, he needed a shower.
He shifted his gaze to the setting sun in the gray-tinged-with-pink sky. It would be dark soon and even though the holidays were right around the corner, there were no Christmas decorations strewn across lamp posts. No festive wreaths graced homeowner's doors, and no jolly St. Nicks rang bells on the corner. The deserted streets, dreary houses and abandoned storefronts reminded him that on this side of town, the holiday spirit wasn't missing; it had run away from fear of being mugged or shot.
The line pitched forward, breaking his reverie, and he caught sight of the chubby-cheeked, teenaged cashier slouched behind the counter. Under a cap of curly black hair, almond-shaped eyes met his as he plopped down his six-pack and shrink-wrapped frozen pizza.
Smacking a piece of gum into submission on her back molars, she hummed "Feliz Navidad," the Muzak version, as he plucked a twenty from his billfold and handed it to her. "Will that…pop… be all…pop?" She withdrew a white plastic sack from under the counter and reached for his purchases.
"Yeah, that's it," he replied. "Save the plastic, querida, I'll carry it out."
Chipped-polished fingers strummed the register keys and moments later she slapped a receipt in his palm and was have-a-nice-daying him before he removed his stuff from the counter.
He balanced the awkwardly shaped pizza box and six-pack on one arm and hustled to the automatic exit doors. Barcalounger, here I come.
"Rico? Rico? Hey, wait…I know it's you!"
Was she talking to him? He stopped and whipped around. It was the woman who'd been staring at him.
Spiky stiletto heels on black leather ankle boots click-clacked across the hard linoleum floor as she closed the distance between them. Curvy in all the right places—tight jeans stretched over generous hips and a red satin blouse rippling over voluptuous breasts—she had a body made for sin. Fingers of her spicy perfume tickled his nose and made the smooth muscle between his legs twitch.

Advice and support
Here professionals can find out more about what we do, including:
- how we can help
- when we can help
- how we prioritise requests for work
- how much we charge
- how to contact us
How we can help
HRIS staff can provide direct advice and assistance to organisations producing patient information. This might involve:
- developing new patient information
- commenting on, or editing, draft documents
- giving advice about organising research with patients or members of the public, or
- giving advice on the development of information in alternative formats.
When we can help
To avoid becoming overloaded with this type of work, we have set out clear criteria to decide when to offer this kind of assistance.
We will only provide direct assistance if:
- the information is for patients or members of the public, rather than NHS staff
- the information is primarily about rights, responsibilities, or what patients can expect in different parts of the NHS, or in relation to particular kinds of treatment, and
- the information is not primarily about conditions, treatment, or health promotion.
How we prioritise requests for work
For work that meets the above criteria, we will give highest priority to:
- requests from the Patient Support and Participation Division (our funders) at the Scottish Government Health Directorates
- requests from other parts of the Scottish Government Health Directorates
- requests from within the NHS in Scotland, and
- requests for advice and assistance about patient information produced for a Scotland-wide audience, or which has the potential to be shared by the sponsoring organisation across Scotland.
But we will always consider and, where possible, meet requests for advice and assistance about patient information designed to meet a local audience.back to top
How much we charge
When we are doing work for the NHS in Scotland, or for the Scottish Government Health Directorates we will not make any charge for our time spent:
- commenting on, or editing, draft documents, or
- giving advice about organising research with patients or members of the public or on the development of information in alternative formats.
If we are asked to develop new patient information, we will not charge for our time spent on drafting the text. But there may be additional costs that will need to be met. For example:
- any research carried out to test the information on patients, etc,
- the design, printing and distribution of information, and
- the production of alternative formats.
We will never go ahead with this type of work without prior written agreement.
If we undertake work for organisations outside the NHS, we will set out our charges clearly in writing.
How to contact us
If you need advice or assistance to develop information for patients, or if you are not sure if your request meets the criteria outlined above, please contact us.

Enter Brat Camp, a show which sends nine problem children — and by "problem children," we mean teens prone to sexual promiscuity, drug and alcohol addiction, verbal and physical abuse etc. — to SageWalk, a wilderness camp in Oregon, for possible rehabilitation. Potentially dicey fare, indeed.
"I never felt any sense that our show was in trouble," Brat Camp executive producer Allison Grodner tells TV Guide.com. "I happen to know the people who [produced Welcome to the Neighborhood], so I'm very sorry that that happened. In the end, maybe somebody will see it. It's worth seeing; I'll just say that. But Brat Camp is very different.
"Certainly our show is real — as was the other one — and we deal with real issues, with heavy issues. But hot-button issues? No," reiterates Grodner, whose reality résumé includes Big Brother. "The race and prejudice issues that [Neighborhood] was delving into were hot-button issues. That's not our show."
Which is not to say that Brat Camp, with its nine hard-to-handle hellions, won't deliver more than its fair share of eye-openers and jaw-droppers. (It should be noted that the series carries a TV-14, L — for language — rating.) "These kids wouldn't be in a camp like this if they were just being 'brats.' There's a lot more to it," says Grodner. "Their parents are at their wits' end, and this is the last option for these families who have tried a lot of things."
There is no cash prize at the end of Brat Camp. No torches to be snuffed or roses to be handed out. No recording contracts. The only winners are the kids who elect to choose the right path. "This is not a game. There are light moments, as there are heavy moments, but these are serious issues. This show is truthful and honest and raw. People will be shocked."
Nine kids, with nine sets of inner demons to overcome. Can viewers expect nine happy endings? "This is a real show, so there are absolutely no guarantees," insists Grodner. "These are [problems] that sometimes take a lot more time than 60-plus days in the wilderness [to resolve]. I will tell you that there are some incredibly dramatic turnarounds — but maybe not for everyone."
But if all goes as wished, Brat Camp will help many more families than the nine featured on the program. "What we always hope with a show like this is that it makes an impression on the audience and helps people find help and learn from it," says Grodner. "If we can touch other lives, that's amazing."
Brat Camp's two-hour premiere airs tonight at 8 pm/ET on ABC.

See, I'm used to incarceration. For the last six months I've been living at home with my parents, in their little Alcatraz in the hills outside Los Angeles. I'm in my 20s. I have a good job and pretty amazing hair (everybody says so). I have my own car and credit cards and a college degree. Is this what America has become, a bad De Niro comedy?
That's my dad. He's going up on the roof to fix the skylight over the kitchen, which has been leaking like the Titanic from all the rain. Dad says he likes the rain, since it keeps his tongue hydrated. Except when water starts pouring directly into the kitchen.
"Pretty much, that's where I draw the line," he says with a wink.
Have you ever met a leprechaun? That's my dad. Up and down the ladder he goes. He found an old bucket of tar in the basement, and now he's up on the roof, trying not to fall through the skylight, which would be a real setback to this little repair project of his. He'd land right on the Viking stove and take out a couple of burners. Believe me, my mom would be sooooo. . . .
"I THINK I GOT IT!" he yells from the roof.
"GOOD JOB!" my mom yells back, after which my dad gives the thumbs-up sign, the way they used to a lot in the '70s.
So, it's been a good week, here in the House of Love. Dad fixed the skylight on the very first try (a personal record). My little brother made me a Valentine's card in Sunday school that has nothing but naked people on it.
Meanwhile, my little sister took bites out of half the pieces in my Valentine's candy, then put the pieces back into the box like nothing happened.
"Sweet!" my dad says, then eats about half the chocolate anyway.
Seriously, you should've seen Valentine's Day around here. First, my dad goes to the farmers market and buys flowers for all us girls. He comes home and hands them out slowly and calmly, flower by flower, like Jesus gifting the Apostles. Then he takes my baby bro out to rent a video.
"Today, we pull out all the stops," Dad tells him.
"Because love has no limits, that's why," my dad explains, after which my mom spews coffee all over the counter, she is so surprised. Up to now, Mom had been pretty sure love has some sort of limits.
"Come on, Cupid, let's go watch a movie," my dad tells my brother.
For two hours, the two of them sit on the couch and howl at " Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa," which my dad then proclaims "the best sequel since the second 'Godfather,' whatever that was called."
" 'Godfather II'?" my other brother says.
"Yeah, something like that."

Compact state and home residency
- 0Feb 20, '13 by robredDoes anyone know or can cite the requirements for maintaining a compact license after leaving the issuing compact state as a traveler? If one leaves the state in which the compact license was issued, is one required to maintain residency in that state or can one relocate to another compact license state and setup residency there without losing the reciprocity of the compact?
- 0Feb 20, '13 by BluntForceTraumaAs long as you move to another compact state and obtain licensure there, you're covered!

Great stock pot.
I do a lot of canning, and the ideal size for me is a 9 qt batch. I have an 8 qt and 22 qt stock pot - the 8 qt is ust too small and the 22 so large it is hard to work with. Thus the purchase of this pot. I love it! If I ever replace the other two sizes it will be with this brand (if available). I've used it both on stove-top and in the oven. I especially like the glass lid - it is really nice to see what's happening without lifting the lid.I recommend this product.
Beautiful pot
Stockpot is nice and heavy, very well made. The only improvement to me would be a non-glass lid.I recommend this product.
I was very excited about purchasing my first stock pot. I've been using a stainless steel 4 qt pan until now. The description of the product said that it was a full aluminum core, when I received it, only the bottom is the full core. After 3 hours of cooking quartered potatoes on med heat, the water still wasn't boiling and the potatoes weren't done. I have also been scrubbing/soaking the bottom of the pan for 3 days trying to remove the scorched potatoes from the bottom.

Stockpot, (12-qt.)
This is a good stock pot made of good materials. The only problem is that there are exessive labels such as names and logos on the product. Please avoid putting names and logos on visible areas of the product such as lid or on the cover or the sides, handles etc. Your excessive advertising ruined your product even though you might have done that to protect your intellectual property.I recommend this product.

I have had my pots and pans since I got married, and they were really beginning to look tattered with scrapes and dings. I decided to replace them as I could, and since large pots are never in sets, when I saw this online for half price I couldn't resist. It's wonderful - very even heat, did a beautiful job on the soups and stews I made over the holiday! Easy to clean afterwards too, so I know that my replacements will look good for a lot longer than my first set did!I recommend this product.

CBS Confirms Reporter Was Hacked
By Harold Hutchison
CBS News investigative reporter Sharyl Attkisson's computer has been hacked on multiple occasions, the network announced. The announcement came after an investigation by a cyber-security firm.
"Sharyl Attkisson's computer was accessed by an unauthorized, external, unknown party on multiple occasions late in 2012. Evidence suggests this party performed all access remotely using Attkisson's accounts. While no malicious code was found, forensic analysis revealed an intruder had executed commands that appeared to involve search and exfiltration of data," CBS News said in a statement.
Attkisson had drawn the wrath of the Obama Administration for her investigative reporting of Operation Fast & Furious, a failed gun trafficking investigation that allowed hundreds of guns to fall into the hands of Mexican drug cartels, and the 11 September, 2012 attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi.
In 2011, Soldier of Fortune awarded Attkisson a 2nd Amendment Freedom Fighter Award for her coverage of Fast & Furious.

WildAid and the SSIC today launched the findings of a survey in to shark consumption habits and attitudes.
The survey report revealed that Chinese consumers have very little understanding of the negative environmental impacts associated with shark losses, while indicating mounting public support for effective shark conservation activities.
The survey, carried out between November 2005 to February 2006, produced unique in-depth information on the status of shark fin consumption, and identified public attitudes toward shark conservation in China.
Recently, two isolated incidents occurred on the island of Baltra, Galapagos Islands that warrant dissemination to the international community and must be addressed by the President of Ecuador.
On March 14th, the Ecuadorian Navy arrested two Park Wardens in Baltra who were investigating a denouncement made by PetroEcuador. A single hulled tanker was illegally transferring and selling diesel fuel to a foreign yacht in a highly sensitive area.
Chinese officials should ensure that shark's fin, swallow's nest, bear's paw, snake and other dishes that might "upset" foreigners are removed from restaurants before the 2008 Olympics, state media on Wednesday quoted a local lawmaker as saying.
"Serving shark's fin to foreign guests during the Olympic Games could greatly hurt China's image, and officials should start removing the dish from the dining tables right now," the official Xinhua News Agency quoted Xu Zhihong, a Beijing deputy to the National People's Congress, as saying.
A major Metropolitan Police initiative against the illegal sale of endangered species in London's Chinese medicine shops is launched today with the support of the Chinese community and Britain's leading wildlife charities. The new initiative will see a tough new focus on Chinese medicine practitioners selling goods that are made from, or even claim to be made from, endangered species. The launch takes place at New Scotland Yard at 11am today, and is run under the banner of Operation Charm, by the MET's Wildlife Crime Unit.
In Beijing, on November 7th, 2006, experts on shark conservation, research and management from Australia, China, Singapore, United States and United Kingdom, participated in the International Shark Conservation Meeting in Beijing, China. After discussion, The experts reached the following consensus:

Brenda Wood's Commentary on Coke Ad Sparks Debate
WXIA anchor Brenda Wood's commentary about the Coca-Cola Super Bowl ad has sparked controversy in the company's hometown and beyond. On Monday, the Atlanta anchor discussed the commercial as part of her regular "Last Word" segment, calling the outrage over the ad — which features "America the Beautiful" sung in seven different languages — "outrageous itself."
"The quote on the Statue of Liberty doesn't say 'Give me your English-speaking only, Christian-believing, heterosexual masses.' It says, 'Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses, Tempest-tossed,'" Wood said. "…What makes America different than everyone else is that we are a melting pot. We are not homogenous. It is our diversity that built this country. How dare there be indignation over the very thing that makes us great? And why not honor the beauty of that in song?"
The video of Wood's commentary has been viewed more than 200,000 times and has elicited a strong response from viewers, with thousands of people posting opinions on WXIA's Facebook page. Wood has been both praised for "speaking the truth" and panned as "another liberal, sensational journalist." Several commenters have suggested newscasters "should report the NEWS and keep their opinions to themselves." Read more

Council leader declares war on archaeologist 'Bunny Huggers'
Archaeologists in Cambridgeshire preparing to 'Shag Like Bunnies' on 23rd July, met with grim news this morning – learning that 'Shag an Archaeologist day 2011' has been cancelled in their district.
Due to an unfortunate clerical error, council leaders have instead scheduled a 'Screw an Archaeologist Day' – green lighting proposals put forward by local developers to remove all archaeology planning conditions except for watching briefs.
Alan Melton, leader of Fenland Council, and a lifelong resident of East Bumblefuck, said, "common sense will prevail."
Speaking at the 4th annual Cambs Times/Wisbech Standard/Fenland Council Building and Design Awards final at Wisbech Boathouse, he added:
"The bunny huggers won't like this but if they wish to inspect a site, they can do it when the footings are being dug out. This will stop the stupid requirement of having to strip a whole site; after trenches have already criss-crossed the site. In some cases requiring the development to be constructed on piles or some other stabiliser, at a far greater un-recoverable cost."
Alluding to the widespread rural poverty and webbed feet of over 95% of all fenland residents, Mr Melton said the council was determined to see the Fenland's market towns grow and prosper.
"We will aim to provide between 11,000 and 16,000 homes, with job, retail and commercial opportunities," he said.
A spokesperson for the archaeologists said: 'never before has the phrase 'I shaved my balls for this?!' seemed more relevant.'
Story from EDP24 via Archaeology Tea Club

Mrs Alan Melton nee Melton nee Melton
Our aim is to concrete over every fen so that future generations will be born without webbed feet. Eventually we hope to start breeding outside our immediate families and produce somebody of emore than moderate talent.
Fenland Council plan to scrap all pre-development archaeological assessment – roundup « Finds and Features
[...] Over at Digging the Dirt, an excavation archaeologists' website, this has been summed up as an attempt to remove all archaeological planning conditions beyond watching briefs – though Cllr Melton's words to me make it unlikely that they'll even require the later. Digging the Dirt take an irreverent approach, but this is simply a reaction to what seems like a truly farsical, unimaginable, ludicrous move by Fenland Council. [...]
Mr. S. Kwermy Rootler
Some that there diggin is least of yer wurries. I drove down one them roods tuther day and saw a house clad with WOOD of all stuff.
If you ask me, that wood'll look like it needs a good 'ole creosotin' in a couple o years.
I 'shink we be better orf jus bildin' with concrete – its the footure of Fenlaaaaand.
Ena Pickles
Just because i have shares in an aggregate cartel, a major engineering conglomerate and a national housebuilder which operates under a number of different tax dodging pseudonyms, dosen't mean that i'm indifferent to bunnies or any other kind of wild life. I am particulalrly fond of foxes, badgers, bears and hares to for that matter. Not so interested in old things though, aprt from hubby of course.

- Sophomore Emma Brandt, a Latin American studies and international business double major from Weston, received the best delegate honorable mention — Libya Human Rights Council.
- Senior Amanda Schibline, a world politics major from Mount Calvary, along with Hathaway, Wagner and Mueller, received best delegation overall honorable mention for the Islamic Republic of Iran.
"I am very proud of the UW-Eau Claire Model UN Club this year, especially the freshmen," said Model United Nations Club President Amanda Schibline.
According to Schibline, UW-Eau Claire's Model United Nations Club has participated in the Arrowhead conference since the founding of the organization in 1994.
"The Model UN Club has won prizes in previous years and has always represented UW-Eau Claire with distinction," said Dr. Ali Abootalebi, professor of political science and club adviser.
The purpose of the Model United Nations Club is to discuss international politics and prepare for conferences such as the Winona event. The group also promotes international diversity and brings together students who are interested in international politics.
For more information about the conference or the club, contact Amanda Schibline at email@example.com or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Project Summary:
The recently established Morro Bay Ecosystem-Based Management Program is a concerted effort to build a robust and integrated program of scientific, stakeholder (people that live and work in the Bay), and management communities across the natural boundaries of the ecosystem. Our major goal in establishing the program is to develop high-quality, broadly-shared knowledge of the ecosystem to facilitate conservation, restoration, and sustainable use of the services provided by the Morro Bay Ecosystem. Current efforts to conduct science and manage the resources in the Morro Bay area remain fragmented within narrowly defined elements of the ecosystem (e.g. land/estuary vs. coastal habitats, conservation vs. economic concerns) and driven by isolated institutions (e.g. local governments, State Parks, Coastal Commission, Fish and Game, Regional Water Quality Control Board). A few of the over arching questions we are addressing include:
Orange Cup Coral (Balanophyllia elegans). Credit: Lisa Needles
From an institutional perspective, we are also seeking to build and maintain the relevant inter-organization networks to manage an ecosystem. That is, just as a nexus of ecological linkages exist, so too does a series of institutional linkages. With that in mind the broad objectives the Morro Bay Ecosystem Based Management Program are:
To meet these objectives we have developed a conceptual framework to understand the potential linkages within the ecosystem and to provide a context in which to view the interrelatedness of the individual projects. The figure below provides a systems approach to describe how the various "compartments" of the "Morro Bay Ecosystem" (i.e., coastal ocean, bay/estuary, and watershed) are related and how changes in nutrient level, for example, might cascade through the various trophic levels and ultimately translate to an ecosystem product for users such as fisherman.
Conceptual systems diagram of the "Morro Bay Ecosystem". "s" denotes changes in the same direction. "o" denotes changes in the opposite direction. As an example using water quality, the dark blue arrows denote water quality changes as a result of ocean water, and the light blue arrows denote water from the watershed. By following arrows, one can trace how an event such as an upwelling in the coastal ocean might affect eel grass production (primary production) in the bay/estuary.
Our program will develop appropriate indicators at each of the identified nodes (delta symbols) and simultaneously track changes across the ecosystem that are occurring at these nodes. This approach will allow us to answer fundamental questions about the Morro Bay Ecosystem that have been identified by the relevant resource agencies and stakeholders. For example,

Fire chief: Pot operation is possible cause of Rim Fire
Updated On: Sep 03 2013 09:06:53 PM PDT
With 6,000 firefighters now battling the Sierra's largest blaze for the third straight week, a small team of investigators is trying to figure out how the fire started and who might be responsible.
The U.S. Forest Service, the lead agency fighting the fire, will only say the cause is undetermined -- but a local fire chief who has fought brush fires for more than 20 years told a town hall meeting he suspects a marijuana operation is to blame.
"We know it's human caused. There was no lighting in the area," Chief Todd McNeil told a town hall meeting, which was recorded and posted online.
"We don't know the exact cause, what it was. It's highly suspected there might have been some sort of illicit grove, marijuana grow-type thing," McNeil said.
The chief told KCRA 3 on Tuesday he stands by his comments, and that nothing has changed since his original remarks made Aug. 23.
The Forest Service and Cal Fire said McNeil is not on the team of fire investigators looking into the cause of the Rim Fire.
A spokesperson said fire investigators were sent to the area believed to be the origin of the blaze as soon as it was deemed safe.
The fire originated in the Groveland ranger district, near the border of the Stanislaus National Forest and Yosemite National Park.
The Rim Fire has cost taxpayers more than $60 million, and is the fourth largest in state history.

text: I am not in the habit of lauding state media. But in a remarkable meeting of state media and dumbed down America (in the undeniable context of providing cover for Obama's every action, and the tendency of a stopped clock being right twice a day) — we see that CNN published David Lake's op-ed on CNN explaining our long-term policy in the Mideast using the children's story, "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie." It is an easy-to-understand analogy for the masses of tired and confused Americans, at least. On the same CNN page this morning, we find an explanation as to why a Mennonite college (in a spirit of real separation between state and church) might not wish to sing the National Anthem. Is CNN being provocative or somehow channeling a contempt of the lying state that is growing undeniably, irrepressibly in the hearts of the people?7:44 am on June 26, 2011 Email Karen Kwiatkowski

Register for $14.99 Windows 8 on the Windows Upgrade Offer Website
Last Updated on Monday, 20 August 2012 10:11 Written by admin Monday, 20 August 2012 10:11
Say what you will about Windows 8, but upgrades are really, really cheap. In fact, provided that you're among those eligible, a special offer awaits you. You now have the possibility of acquiring a Windows 8 upgrade for as little as $14.99. To qualify you need to have purchased a new Windows 7 machine starting with June 2, 2012. In fact, any new Windows 7 computer purchased until January 31, 2013 will automatically allow you to buy a Windows 8 upgrade for just $14.99.
Here is what you need to do to register for your $14.99 (U.S.) upgrade to Windows 8 Pro:
After buying your PC, go to the Windows Upgrade Offer website to register. It will ask you to select your country (details for the offer vary depending on country). You will then be asked to register with your personal details as well as information about your Windows 7 PC purchase – including date of purchase, retailer, and PC brand and model. You should also have your 25-digit Windows 7 product key that came with the PC handy as you may be required to enter this as part of the registration.
Then starting on October 26th, we will start sending out promo codes via email with purchase instructions. You will be directed to Windows.com where you will go through the online upgrade process with the Windows 8 Upgrade Assistant (shown above) as I have highlighted here in this blog post. Once you get to the purchase screen in the Windows 8 Upgrade Assistant, it will show the $39.99 upgrade price. However, on the order confirmation page you'll have a chance to enter your promo code – that price will change to $14.99. Once you make your purchase, your download and upgrade installation begins!
You will have until February 28, 2013 to register for the offer to get Windows 8 Pro for $14.99.
If you experience any issues or have questions – you can click the contact support link at the top of the Windows Upgrade Offer website.
Did you already buy an awesome Windows 7 PC prior to June 2nd (or have a Windows 7 PC not eligible for the offer)? Not to worry! Starting on October 26th, you will be able to upgrade to Windows 8 Pro for $39.99!
Both the Windows Upgrade Offer and $39.99 upgrade promotion is available in 140 countries worldwide, with 37 supported languages, and 23 supported currencies (we've added 9 additional countries over the original 131!).
Download Free Windows 8 RTM Enterprise 90-day Evaluation
Last Updated on Thursday, 16 August 2012 12:57 Written by admin Thursday, 16 August 2012 12:57
As you might already know, MSDN and TechNet subscribers have received the RTM bits of the latest Windows release as of August 15, 2012. If you're a paying subscriber then log into your account and download the gold release of Windows 8. Download it here.
Microsoft is also offering Windows 8 RTM to more users, provided that they're fine with running the Enterprise SKU of the operating system only for a limited period of time. Essentially, the Windows 8 RTM Enterprise 90-day evaluation release enables you to test drive the platform for a full three months. After 90 days since installation, the evaluation edition will expire, at which point you'll need to do a clean install, since there's no upgrading from this version of the OS.
This evaluation provides a 90-day trial of Windows 8 Enterprise edition. Both 32-bit and 64-bit versions are available as ISO images in the following languages: Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), English, English (UK), French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese (Brazil), and Spanish. In order to use this evaluation, you must register and the product must be activated online with Microsoft-hosted activation and validation services. Microsoft does not provide technical support for this software.
The evaluation edition will expire and cannot be upgraded.
To upgrade, the evaluation must be uninstalled and a non-evaluation version of Windows must be re-installed from your original installation media.
Consider running the evaluation edition in a virtual environment or installing on a separate hard drive or partition. The will allow you to upgrade your original Windows installation to Windows 8.
During registration (required) you must login with a Microsoft account and provide your name, e-mail address and country.
You are required to activate the product online within 10 days after installing.
Once the evaluation is installed, you cannot upgrade. To revert to a previous version of Windows, you must do a clean install from your original installation media.
Back up your files and settings before installing this evaluation and again prior to the 90-day expiration.
Upon installation, you will have 10 days to activate this evaluation online. Windows will prompt you to activate. A product key is not required for this software.
You must complete activation before August 15, 2013, to use this evaluation.
Once you activate, you have up to 90 days to use the software. You can track the amount of time you have left by referring to the "watermark" in the lower right corner of the Windows desktop.
If you fail to activate this evaluation within the 10-day grace period, or if your evaluation period expires, the desktop background will turn black, you will see a persistent desktop notification indicating that the system is not genuine, and the PC will shut down every hour losing unsaved work.
Following the evaluation period, you will need to replace the operating system on your test computer and reinstall all your programs and data. It is not possible to upgrade the evaluation to a licensed working version of Windows 8. A clean installation is required.
Download Windows 8 RTM via MSDN and TechNet
Last Updated on Wednesday, 15 August 2012 11:12 Written by admin Wednesday, 15 August 2012 09:58
The RTM Build of Windows 8 is now available for download via MSDN and TechNet. Remember, you have to own a paid MSDN or TechNet subscription in order to access the Windows 8 RTM bits, but if you do here are pages where you'll find the download links:
MSDN – http://msdn.microsoft.com/subscriptions/downloads/default.aspx#searchTerm=windows&ProductFamilyId=0&Languages=en&PageSize=50&PageIndex=0&FileId=0
TechNet – http://technet.microsoft.com/subscriptions/downloads/default.aspx#searchTerm=windows&ProductFamilyId=0&Languages=en&PageSize=50&PageIndex=0&FileId=0
UPDATE 8/15/2012: It looks like the MSDN and TechNet servers weren't able to deal with the number of subscribers crowding to download Windows 8 RTM. For the time being Windows 8 RTM downloads can no longer be accessed on MSDN and TechNet.
First thing that comes to mind is that Microsoft should have prepared better for this. But I have no doubts that the Redmond company is working to resolve the issue as I write this.
UPDATE: It looks like the download links are back up.

Reason #782 to love public television (no, seriously, Mitt!): the Live from the Artists Den series, now in its fifth season.
The charmingly peripatetic performance showcase has featured the likes of Adele, Elvis Costello, and Death Cab for Cutie in a host of non-traditional spaces, from a 1930s silent movie theater and the world's oldest sailing vessel to the marble halls of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Watch below as Norah Jones performs "Good Morning" at Brooklyn's Green Building in a clip exclusively available on EW.com, and tune in Oct. 5 at 10pm (check local listings for channel info) when she officially kicks off the new season with a full show.
Also scheduled to follow her this fall are the Wallflowers, filmed at Bimbo's 365 Club in San Francisco (Oct. 12), Rufus Wainwright at the Church of the Ascension on New York's Fifth Avenue (Oc. 19) and Mayer Hawthorne at the historic Park Plaza Hotel in Los Angeles (Oct 26).

Biblical Equipping Collection
Life of Christ - B346
The Life of Christ course is designed with one goal in mind: To help students gain a deeper understanding of God by taking them into the pages of Scripture to follow the very steps of Jesus during His earthly ministry. What was the social, political, and religious context of His teaching? What did His words and deeds mean to those who followed Him? By answering those questions, students will better understand what our Lord's words and deeds were meant to communicate to them.
Dr. Varner came to The Master's
College in 1996 after seven years in the Pastorate and seventeen
years of ministry with the Friends of Israel in New Jersey. The
last ten of those years he served as Dean of their Institute of
Biblical Studies, where he taught and led study tours to Israel.
Dr. Varner received his M.A. from Dropsie College, both an M. Div.
and Th.M. from Biblical Theological Seminary, and his Ed.D. from
Temple University. He is a member of the Evangelical Theological
Society and the Society of Biblical Literature, and has authored
five books, contributed to two others, and published over a hundred
journal and periodical articles. He recently published an academic
commentary on James.
In addition to teaching Bible Exposition and Greek Exegesis courses, Dr. Varner serves as Director of the College's IBEX semester in Israel program, a country he has visited over forty times. His Old Testament lectures richly benefit from his firsthand study of the sites and culture of Israel. In 1999 and in 2005 Dr. Varner was honored as The Master's College "Teacher of the Year".

Japan and precious metals: a snapshot
As the country still reels from the devastation of a massive earthquake and tsunami, we provide a brief view of where Japan fits into the world precious metals markets
Posted: Monday , 14 Mar 2011
It feels callous writing about such an awful tragedy in terms metals markets, but sadly there is perhaps a call for a quick review of Japan's typical position in terms of normal demand levels. This piece is not designed to take a view on the prospects for longer-term increased demand in terms of reconstruction, not to try and quantify how demand may contract in the short-term as some of Japan's industries have to struggle to contain their losses or temporary shut-downs; it is aimed more at giving a snapshot of Japan's market share in different sectors.
The PGMs
The platinum group metals are the logical place to start, especially given Japan's long history of platinum jewellery demand. This is based partly, but not only on the concept of purity. Platinum jewellery needs to be a minimum of 85% and there is no "caratage" concept as such; this partly informs the fact that for many decades Japan was the world's largest consumer of platinum in jewellery as Japanese people have high standards and have always valued high purity (this though has been changing in the gold market through economic force of circumstances). The other reason goes back some centuries to the Shogun era, when the Emperor desired his merchants to wear while metal rather than yellow, in an effort to minimise ostentation - this was more important than the generally accepted concept of white metal looking better on the Japanese complexion than yellow metal.
Back in 1991, purchases of platinum for jewellery manufacture in Japan were 1.26 million ounces or 39 tonnnes (Johnson Matthey figures). This was some 31% of world demand for platinum in all forms and 85% of the world jewellery sector, which was 4.1M ounces or 252t.
Preliminary JM figures for 2010 put world purchases of platinum for jewellery at 2.4M ounces or 149t. This of course is now dominated by China; the Japanese figure for 2010 is just 330,000 ounces, a fall of 74% from 20 years previously. GFMS is currently estimating actual Japanese fabrication demand in the sector at a lower figure and has noted recently, but before the earthquake, that while the bridal sector remained relatively steady, falls in adornment demand were likely to continue. This is ascribed both to slow economic growth and demographic shifts in spending patterns as well as other endemic changes in the local sector.
JM figures suggest that Japanese demand for platinum in the auto sector accounted for just over half a million ounces in 2010 or 18% of the world total, but the Japanese auto market is a palladium story rather than platinum.
Johnson Matthey's estimate (which, as noted above, reflects purchases of metal for the sector as opposed to actual fabrication demand) for the overall Japanese share in the platinum market in 2010 is 1.2M ounces, or 15% of the world total. Autocatalyst and jewellery, as the two largest demand sectors, took up 75% of local purchases, with glass in third place.
Japan's position in the palladium market is slightly larger than that of platinum, reflecting its greater use in the auto and electronics sectors. JM estimates that Japan's overall demand for palladium in 2010 was 1.5M ounces or 16% of the world total.
More than 50% of this was accounted for by the auto sector, at 765,000 ounces. Japan's share of palladium demand in the world auto sector was therefore 15%.
Globally, the second largest use of palladium is the electrical and electronics sector, notably the latter. This sector took up 1.4M ounces in 2010, or 16% of world demand. In Japan the offtake was 295,000 ounces, giving it a 21% share, well ahead of Europe and the United States and second only to China.
Meanwhile Japan's demand for palladium in the dental sector is the world's largest at almost 47% of the total.
A fully up-to-date breakdown of silver demand by country is not yet available (GFMS will be publishing its World Silver Survey for the Silver Institute in early April). Broadly speaking, however, Japanese demand for silver is something over 2,000 tonnes, or 9% of world total. The largest end-use by far is the broad "industrial" category, which includes the auto sector, construction, medical uses and solar cells, which latter are garnering an increasing amount of popular comment. The photographic sector has been falling as heavily in Japan as it has elsewhere in the face of the onward march of digital technology; the fall in Japanese demand between 2000 and 2009 was 63%, while world usage fell by 62%. Jewellery and silverware is a minimal end-use in Japan.
In the gold market, meanwhile, Japan's share of world gold fabrication (i.e. exclusive of investment demand) is approximately 6% of the world total, with the majority of this concentrated in the electronics industry in which it has consistently been the world leader. The tonnage involved in Japan is close to 100t for a world total in the region of 250t. Jewellery demand is low, both on a gross and an outright basis, and scrap recycling has been relatively heavy in recent years, meaning that net demand has typically been well below 50% of gross demand - and more recently has been more like 20% of total. Caratage in new pieces has been falling as economic conditions have been constricting expenditure.
Gold investment bars, meanwhile, have been flowing back into the market. World Gold Council publication "Gold Demand Trends" (figures compiled by GFMS) show that with the exception of the fourth quarter of 2008, Japanese investors have been net sellers of gold bars on a quarterly basis right back to the start of 2006, since when the net release of small bars has been over 220 tonnes. This negates the net purchases of gold bars going back to the second quarter of 2002. Between the start of 1999 and Q2 21002, net purchases were almost 300t - so we may yet find that these sorry circumstances lead to more such sales.
