Wisconsin Passes 200K CCW Permits Issued Milestone
About a year and a half ago, I posted on Wisconsin passing the 100K permit milestone.
This milestone puts the adult CCW density in Wisconsin up around 5%, meaning that the probability of at least one CCW holder in any sort of 'mass incident' is pretty high. Clearly it is no accident that pretty much all such incidents occur in 'gun free zones'.
Reactionaries, counter-revolutionaries, and garden variety conservatives should take note in the way the CCW movement succeeds over time where they have failed. It is a matter of rewarding your friends and punishing your enemies and never forgetting either.

Speaking of punishing your enemies, I have taken to heart your sage prescription regarding jury nullification and embellished it with a quasi-Quine over at sortocracy.org. The quasi-Quine is simply this:
Spread awareness of the importance of jury nullification by applying jury nullification against the enemies of jury nullification.
This requires that some of us (see class 1 actors at the aforelinked sortocracy.org article) place ourselves in danger by openly sitting on the Sovereign People's Jury (described also at the aforelinked sortocracy.org article). However there are 3 other classes of actors, two of which would be viable for people with children.
This is far more likely to work than merely standing on the street corners of the blogosphere and preaching the merits and techniques of jury nullification.

text: Marko: This is a very, very serious thing and we don't know if we will catch up at all 4 March, 2014 Red Bull mechanics did a lot of pushing in Bahrain Red Bull consultant Helmut Marko is not sure the world champion team will catch up its early-season deficit in 2014, after a disastrous start to its latest title defence, even before the first round of the season proper has started. Speaking to Red Bull's in-house Servus TV network, the always-blunt Austrian admitted the reigning world champion team is months behind its rivals. "The season opener is coming at least two months too early for us," Marko said on the Sport und Talk programme. "We are not where we should be." He said the biggest problem is that in 12 days of pre-Melbourne testing in Spain and Bahrain, Red Bull turned significantly fewer laps than any other significant rival. Helmut Marko "This is a very, very serious thing," said Marko. "At the moment we do not know what period we will need to catch up, or whether we will at all." However, it may not be all bad for Red Bull, as even pacesetters Mercedes are expecting reliability – not speed – to be perhaps the most important factor next weekend at the season opening Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne. "I believe that half the field will not finish," said Team Chairman Niki Lauda, "simply because there has not been the opportunity for enough testing." But, unfortunately for Red Bull, the Renault-powered RB10 is not just unreliable. Red Bull mechanics retrieve the stricken RB10 during Bahrain testing "The Red Bull does not look good," an experienced source, trackside in Bahrain last week, was quoted by Auto Motor und Sport. "Nothing seemed right – the coordination of engine, gears and setup did not fit together. Sebastian (Vettel) was always sliding and spinning his wheels, while the Williams was like [it was] on rails," he added. The car is also significantly slower in a straight line than its Ferrari and Mercedes-powered rivals, and Renault is taking some of the blame for that. "Melbourne will be an anxious weekend," admitted their technical boss Rob White. "I hope we can support our teams and drivers to explore the performance of the car and allow the race to deliver its sporting verdict." (GMM) Subbed by AJN.

Hopefully Williams & Mercedes will be 1st & 2nd in the Drivers' and Constructor's Championships. =El Presidente= As long as we don't it change from the "Fizzy-Drink-Show" to the "Merc-Works-Show" I'm fine with some engine-dominance. If Williams/McL/Fezza can challenge MB-works for the title we will see a great season. Even though, im not expecting RedBull to lag behind for a long time, ..maybe they might not catch up (quickly) enough to clinch a fifth title, but without any form of doubt they will be competing at the far front end before the summerbreak comes. If this RB-10 really turns out to be a dud, i'm sure we will very soon see the rolling out of a RB-10B-spec, that is at least reliable and able to compete for the top 6-8 positions. (but that is really the worst-of-all-worst-cases-scenario in my opinion. Hugo Lafreniere If, as they claim, they are short on time because they were involved in the title race last year and that ate valuable development time/resources off the 2014 challenger, they are either idiots or lying. Either way I have no sympathy for RBR, not only because I want a different name at the top of the podium, but because they could've just easily switched their attention to 2014 early on and still have gone on to win the title easily. You get greedy, you eventually lose. KevinW It's looking a lot like Renault is the one who simply had nothing for the teams to work with until very late, which meant any development leading to 2014 was being done under assumptions and guesses and not actual equipment or test data. Many of these assumptions turned out to be wrong. For some teams, like Red Bull, the assumptions appear to be further off than others, if only by degrees. Its hard to escape the fact that none of the Renault teams are in competitive form, so this is not just a Red Bull issue. Regardless, it will be fun to watch them make progress, and see new faces on the podium. Massa and Williams look good, Hamilton looks set to get his second, Ferrari looks good as well, with two drivers capable of taking the championship for themselves and Ferrari as constructor after a long absence. This could also be Rossbergs year, and perhaps a great year for Force India as well. It'll be a nice break from the last 4-5 seasons, as well as reveal what detractors have demanded – to see how Vettel does in a car that is not considered the quickest. Red Bull having a tough year is not a bad thing at all. I was concerned 2014 was going to be a disaster. Now its shaping up to be one of the most interesting dramas in F1 history on several levels. Can't wait. Hugo Lafreniere Half the field could actually miss the 107% mark. I hardly call that interesting. KevinW Good point. The potential that there will be those unable to even make it through Q1 or Q2 is also a real prospect. But that's who's fault? The FIA for the rules change to such a complex formula in such a limited amount of time, Renault for missing the mark so seriously? Certainly not Red Bull (they do not make up half the field). Sympathy or not, they may be part of the problem, but are not the only cause of it, since they are not the only ones facing the very real possibility of such a failure. No? Hugo Lafreniere The FIA is indeed hugely responsible for this impending debacle. 12 days of testing for an entirely new engine format would already be too little. 12 days for something this complex is a joke. 12 days for a new engine format AND braking format AND aero rules is borderline mentally retarded. On top of that, throw in an engine manufacturer that misses the mark somewhat, a team that packages everything too tightly, and prevent everyone from working on the kinks and you get a perfect storm of crappiness. So much for the pinnacle of motorsports. And force an homologation deadline that's just as ridiculous. Oh, and let's not forget : escalating costs are a BIG concern for the FIA. That's why they decided to fix something that wasn't broken (and thus getting cheaper), all in the name of being greener, while adding races to the calendar, in places where you travel in hyper-polluting jumbo jets (as opposed to having half the season in Europe where you can travel by truck like in the late 90s). karlich In said ServusTV interview, much more was said. Having watched it and being Austrian, thus understanding all that was said, I might add that Lauda also mentioned the RB10 being considerably faster in fast paced corners and he expects Red Bull to be a force to reckon with as soon as they sort out the problems they need to sort out. Marko also elaborated how the engine was delivered to all Renault teams in Jerez which is the first time they fired it up. Stupid for sure, but if that's true, I am hardly surprised they're in all the trouble they are in. He actually described exactly what's been said above as "the coordination of engine, gears and setup did not fit together" because none of that was ever tested by Renault as one unit (hence early vibration problems with gearbox and engine put together) and the main problem they're having now is the turbo gap / power delivery for drive-ability of the car which lays mostly in software. In the interview, Lauda also mentioned Mercedes having 580hp upon which Marko laughed and admitted "I'd be happy if we had 580hp" which pretty much explains their lack of top speed. So yeah, they've got a boat load of problems, but I've not heard any competitor mention that the RB10 itself, sans engine problems, is a dud. http://bryanvcpalacio.weebly.com brianne now everyone gets to see what they are wishing for… sebastian working his way to the top in a slow car. Dale Allen Given RBR's troubles at the moment and the fact that they are likely to find solutions to their problems later in the season it will be ironic if SV picks up his 5th WC with the help of the double points fiasco at the end of the season. RBC It seems you are aware that the engine reliability issues in F1 at the moment are based on computer issues, and not related to the aggressive driving style of any one driver, who might break the car (Lewis was the driver you mentioned). It also seems that you are Austrian, and support Red Bull in a very patriotic nationalistic way against any facts that suggest they cheated. That explains a lot of your behaviour toward my posts. http://bryanvcpalacio.weebly.com brianne good point and the fact that he despises that rule makes it even ironic karlich Regarding Hamilton's driving style and the effect or increased risk it may have on chassis or engine fatigue – I stand to my claims. Regarding Red Bull and me being Austrian. Actually mate, I was born in Austria to a double citizenship and have been schooled in English schools all my life. Although German is my native tongue, it was my 3rd language. Now I haven't been living in Austria for the past 13 years, so while I certainly have many affiliations with Austria, one thing I certainly do not feel for Austria is any "patriotic nationalistic way" to the extent that I even risked being evicted from Austria because I refused to fulfill compulsory military service. In all honesty, I couldn't care less about my own nationality or that of anybody else in order to pick my preferences. But I find it quite amusing what a fine judge of character you are The only reason I like Red Bull is because to me, Red Bull as a corporate entity with all its endeavors represents many things I love. I admire Mateschitz for creating a multi-billion dollar brick & mortar empire in the foods & beverages industry which, as some may know, is extremely hard nowadays. I also like the fact that he is an extreme aviation nut. I enjoy their marketing and believe they've done a lot to manufacture, but also give back to the lifestyle and sports they so fervently promote. Their creativity stretches beyond pure marketing and they've also collaborated with many fledgling sports and their promoters to either improve or create completely novel sports or competition formats. They've certainly done a lot for one sport that I pursue myself – BMX and if you've ever been to one of their events, you'd understand what I mean and realize just how much they've done to enable and sustain the sport. Then come a number of more exotic ventures such as Felix Baumgartner's free fall out of space. And the less exotic stuff like Red Bull promoted parties, clubbing and soapbox events (one of their first marketing gags). Oh, did I mention I actually like the drink as well? So yeah, I simply like Red Bull as a company, as the marketing machinery that they are and as the business that sponsors x-th amount of sports I either enjoy watching or even partake in. As for Red Bull Racing, well actually my support started in 2000 with Jaguar because… heck, because it's friggin Jaguar, in friggin' British racing green with 2 "Greater British" drivers in the form of Irvine and Herbert. I didn't make much of Klien or Webber but the news of selling to Red Bull end of 2004 had me at the edge of my seat! I also always liked Coulthard, so there I had a company I liked take over and re-brand a team I liked and introducing a driver I liked. I liked! As you see, has nothing to do with being Austrian. Heck, in gppredictor I don't even fly the Austrian flag for my virtual team. It my come as a surprise to you, I simply like the brand, the team, the individuals and last but not least, the drink. There, that's a Red Bull fan for you! RBC Red Bull the drink is known as an addictive product that has caused deaths and is banned in some countries due to its health hazards. And you admire the man that created this product. I see why you admire Red Bull Racing. Winning at all costs, regardless of the moral issues. Got it. And nice that the F1 part of this discussion, about Hamilton's driving style, you just state your opinion with no evidence. You spend a huge amount of time on the personal non F1 points, but nothing explaining how Lewis will break these new cars. karlich Listen, do your homework before attempting to be the bringer of truth. Red Bull is no more or less addictive than any product containing caffeine and/or sugar. No other substance in the drink is addictive. The death allegations are yet to be scientifically proven and are always linked to excessive consumption, mixing with alcohol, drug abuse, dehydration or previous health conditions of the victims. The drink isn't banned per se but available in pharmacies while authorities investigate its safety. Even so, it is the ridiculous inability of a few individuals who cannot consume the drink in responsible quantities. Who drinks 4 espressos after a tough workout? Who drinks any caffeinated beverage with a heart condition? So why would they drink that many Red Bulls? Even so, there are several natural foods that can and do have adverse effects on our health: carotenemia, mercury poisoning, carambola fruit, nutmeg, and yes, coffee has killed several muppets re: caffeine overdose is typically not good whether taken as Red Bull, coffee or tea. Here's a special beverage just for you @RBC : water! Since you like to Google so much, Google this "hyponatremia". So don't you go on about moral issues. Ferrari has killed far more people than Red Bull the beverage may have or may have not. As has any of the current F1 car manufacturers. One might argue producing and selling cars capable of reaching speeds in excess of 300kph is a public road safety hazard. Those car manufacturers market their cars and the lifestyle that goes along them much the same as Red Bull market their beverage. And then there's some who get those cars, crash those cars and maybe take a few innocent lives along with them. Is that a reason to hate on Ferrari or Mercedes, Macca or anyone of 'em? Not for me! As for your repeated and ongoing insulting, accusations and presumptions regarding my own persona, I shall respond to set the record straight. As for F1 discussions, I have nothing left to discuss with you. You have your "truth" and I have mine. RBC Like I said before, your focus is always on attacking the person, not answering F1 related topics. You still haven't explained with any facts how Lewis' driving style will break the car. Not one word. But you ARE able to give a huge number of facts to defend Red Bull as a company. In other words there IS a truth worth expressing about Red Bull. But with F1, suddenly truth is expressed as "truth". It is fixed and certain when it supports you, then nebulous when it does not. As for those facts on Red Bull, I agree that coffee is also an addictive product that has caused deaths, which is why most parents keep their kids away from coffee. Red Bull is just as bad as coffee. Red Bull is banned in many schools, and in some countries for general consumption because it is being marketed as a sexy energy drink for young people, while really being a large dose of caffein that can kill, masked by its flavor. In Thailand the original Red Bull is sold in tiny bottles due to its potency. Like espressos, you can't have 4 in a row as the body rejects it. Red Bull Austria sell the original Red Bull mixed with water and other ingredients to allow people to not taste the potency and therefore have a lot more at a much faster rate than original Red Bull or espressos. Like putting milk in coffee. Red Bull do that to make money at the known cost of people's health. karlich My focus wasn't on attacking anyone. Read above mate. You dragged in a topic from another thread because back there I already stopped answering you. You then continue to call me, and I quote, "patriotic nationalistic" and make a whole lot of other assumptions. You continue to correlate my admiration of Red Bull and Mateschitz with what you call "an addictive" product and question the "moral issues" behind that. Now please, do tell where in this thread I have attacked you? p.s. Red Bull is also sold in tiny little bottles in Austria and is called Red Bull Energy Shock or something like that if I remember right (sorry, I didn't feel like Googling it just for you). p.p.s. Good bye RBC As I said many times before, no explanation has come from you of how Lewis' driving style will damage the car given that the issues are software related and software managed.

The size on this costume is 2-4. My son is 3 and he's slim. the costume was very tight and I could barely put it on him. The fabric is very thin and the quality is poor. Let me just say he didn't look like a magician nor did he look like anything close to the picture advertised. I'm sure I could find something better.

The Case for Shorting U.S. Bonds
The column originally appeared on Real Money Pro at noon Monday.
NEW YORK ( Real Money) -- Bonds have achieved a near 50% total return since year-end 2009. With those outsized returns, shorting bonds has been a toxic strategy.
Over the last half century, bonds have historically been considered a risk-free asset class.
Nevertheless, I believe bonds should now be seen as a return-free asset class that is very risky, and long-dated fixed income should require a warning label for all potential buyers.
Historical ReturnsThe great bull market in bonds has persisted during most of the last four decades. Over the last 38 years (since 1974), the total return on the long bond registered negative returns in excess of 5% in only four years: 1987 (-6.3%), 1994 (-12.0%), 1999 (-14.8%) and 2009 (-25.5%). Below is the table of the annual returns on bonds since 1974 (Source: Ron Griess, TheChartStore.com):
Five Reasons Not to Short BondsAbove all, the U.S. economy faces powerful secular headwinds that weigh as an albatross around the neck of a trajectory of self-sustaining growth.
- The forecast? Muddle-through growth:At best, muddle through remains the baseline expectation for domestic economic growth for 2012.
- A feel-bad environment: Deleveraging and caution associated with the pronounced economic downturn of 2008-2009, coupled with structural unemployment, represent a confidence deflator and act as a governor to personal consumption over the near term.
- The Bernanke put: The Fed will likely anchor short-term interest rates as far as the eye can see. More quantitative easing will be on deck if the domestic economic recovery falters.
- A large manufacturing output gap: Capacity utilization rates are nowhere near levels that are typically associated with demand-pull inflation.
- A negative demographic shift: Aging baby boomers are ignoring stocks, preferring to buy risk-free fixed income products. After two massive drops in the U.S. stock market since 2000 and a lost decade for equity investors, this rapidly growing demographic seems to continue to have an almost insatiable appetite for bonds.
Five Reasons to Short BondsIt is my contention that even if domestic economic growth is constrained, a bond short can prosper, even under the baseline expectation of a muddle-through growth backdrop. 1. The flight to safety will likely have a diminishing half-life. With some progress being made in Europe (reflected in lower sovereign debt yields and sharp rises in European stock markets) and with confidence in the world's financial system improving, it is only a matter of time before the flight-to-safety premium in bonds dissipates. Bond yields are unusually low, and I would note that the current 10-year U.S. note (2.0%) is approximately one-half the yield of the recession of the early 2000s. Gold prices already suggest that the safety premium could disappear sooner than later. (I view gold as a fear trade, and the recent drop in gold prices should be seen as a forward indicator of less fear.) While U.S. economic growth remains subpar, a reacceleration is inevitable in the fullness of time. Demand for durables (housing and auto) is pent-up, not spent-up, and continued population and household formation growth will serve to unleash latent demand at some point in time. In an attempt to put the flight-to-safety premium in bond prices into perspective, the chart below (courtesy of BTIG Chief Global Strategist Dan Greenhaus) compares the yield on 10-year and 30-year notes and bonds to nominal U.S. GDP (nominal GDP = current real GDP + current inflation). Over the last five decades, long-dated bond yields have tracked (and averaged only slightly under) the nominal growth rate in the U.S. -- 4.4% (2% real GDP estimate + 2.4% current inflation) compared to the yield on the 10-year U.S. note of 2.0% and the 30-year U.S. note of 3.1% -- in fact, long-dated yields often exceed nominal GDP.
(Note: 10-year yield is black; 30-year yield is green; nominal GDP (year-over-year) is red.) 2. Flows out of stock funds and into bond funds seem to be at a tipping point. Since 2007, nearly $450 billion has been redeemed from U.S. equity funds, and $850 billion has been placed into U.S bond funds. This swing, of $1.3 trillion, is unprecedented in history. In early 2012, the hemorrhaging of stock funds has stopped. It is my contention that, at some point, a massive reallocation from fixed income into equities is inevitable. 3. Confidence is recovering as economic growth reemerges and risk markets improve. As seen in the chart below, the real yield on the 10-year U.S. note correlates well with consumer confidence, which is now recovering.
Strategy in Shorting BondsI readily admit that, in all likelihood, with U.S. GDP growth of less than 2% in first quarter 2012, bond prices will be relatively range-bound in the weeks ahead. But any evidence of a resumption of growth will have a dual impact: It will likely reduce the flight to safety (reflected in bond premiums) and, at the same time, produce the historically normal and natural upward pressure on interest rates associated with an improving economy. When this happens, bonds will, once again, become certificates of confiscation.

One helpful strategy that's now gaining in popularity is known as "unbundling." Here's how it works: When you purchase new equipment, ask the vendor for an itemized bill that separates tangible costs from intangible costs. Tangible property is anything you can touch, hold or feel, says Huddleston. Intangibles relate to any copyrights, patents or trademarks included in the equipment's purchase price. In a number of jurisdictions, you're only required to pay taxes on tangible personal property.
If you've just purchased a new piece of processing machinery for $200,000, for example, make sure the vendor unbundles the purchase, itemizing all the costs. The bill would indicate the cost of the hardware was $150,000, the cost of the engineering and development portion was $25,000, and allocation to overhead was $25,000. If you're in a jurisdiction that doesn't assess taxes on the intangible costs, you'll only pay tax on $150,000, since the remaining $50,000 is considered intangible property.
To determine how your state treats tangible and intangible costs, check with your tax advisor. You may also need to seek additional help. "This is such an evolving area that a specialist who knows the current statutes and regulations on tangible and intangible property in any give jurisdiction is often necessary," says Huddleston. You can find such specialists at any big accounting firm.
Many states also provide property exemptions for software and equipment used in research and development manufacturing or pollution control. So it pays to stay abreast of these regulations as well. Your state revenue department routinely puts out notices about these types of changes.
If you recently bought equipment but were unaware of unbundling, there's good news: It's possible to unbundle equipment you already own. Ask your vendor to provide the necessary documentation, and then you may be able to apply for a refund. If you can't be bothered with the refund process, unbundle the costs anyway to lower the value of the equipment. This will help lower your taxes in future years.
When it comes to computers and other high-tech equipment, many jurisdictions have specific provisions that apply to hardware and software. In California, for example, all software is nontaxable. In Florida, embedded software is taxable; all other software is nontaxable. In Georgia, all software is taxable. Here again, it's a good idea to check with your tax advisor concerning your state's exemptions in this area.
In addition to the unbundling strategy, consider this simple checklist of dos and don'ts:
- Do a quick audit to identify assets your business is no longer using. Be sure to erase those items from your books so you don't end up paying taxes on equipment that's just sitting idle. Once you've identified your unused equipment, sell it or donate it to a charitable organization.
- Don't double-count repaired equipment. What often happens, says Huddleston, is a company may customize equipment, add to it or repair substantial pieces. When those additions and repairs are made, the old pieces need to come off your list of personal property, but too often, businesses overlook this step. As a result, they end up paying a higher personal property tax on the equipment than necessary.
- Don't assume that fully depreciated assets such as equipment are exempt from annual personal property tax assessments. As long as the assets are on your books, states will assess a tax on these items.
One way to reduce the personal property tax you have to pay on a piece of equipment that falls into this category, says Huddleston, is to have a subsidiary buy the equipment for fair market value. Then lease the equipment from the subsidiary.
- Do properly classify assets for depreciation purposes. Classifying items into specific categories, such as high-tech equipment, will help you keep track of their specific depreciation schedules. Those with shorter life spans will have reduced asset values and thus lower personal property taxes. Computer equipment, for example, can be depreciated at a faster rate than manufacturing equipment or office furniture because it becomes outdated or unuseful so much quicker. Also, equipment subject to unusual wear and tear may also qualify for faster-than-normal depreciation.
The message here, says Huddleston, is clear: Don't just buy a business asset and forget about it. A lot of businesses can drive down their effective tax rates by simply doing a regular review of their fixed assets.

hello everyone can someone help me, i make a lot of wedding cupcakes and im always throwing away egg yolks. can i use the store brought egg white, and how much do i use in place of 4 large egg white.
thank you for your time and information
I too got tired of wasting the yolks although many say that you can freeze them but I really never had luck with it. I purchase qts of egg whites from Restaurant Depot but if you aren't licensed you can not belong unfortunately. Wal Mart sells them and they are fairly reasonable. I use them for cakes, meringue icings as well as meringue cookies and pie meringue.
Good luck!
Cake brings out the inner child in you.
Cake brings out the inner child in you.
The Cake Bible by Rose Levy Berenbaum has a fabulous recipe for neoclassic buttercream, which is basically like IMBC, but it uses egg yolks instead of the whites and it tastes wonderful! I use alot of my yolks to make this - it freezes great and can be flavored just about any flavor you like.
I use the extra yolks for flan (creme caramel, caramel custard), lemon curd, yellow cakes, etc.
There. Their. They're not the same.
I hope I die before "your" becomes the official contraction of "you are."

I hope I die before "your" becomes the official contraction of "you are."
I use mine for curds.
My family's doboshtorte recipe is going to be my December contribution to the Best Friends for Frosting blog. It uses a ton of yolks! And is insanely rich and delicious. I'm not sure which day they're going to post it, but it was styled as a New year's post, so really, any time now.
Yup...my dogs get mine too :)
I think it's probably still cheaper to separate the yolks from the whites and throw them out...than to buy a carton of egg whites....isn't it?

Stocks on the rise: Encouraging economic news at home is deflecting worries about Greece. Dow is up 60 points.
Jobless claims at 4-year low: Weekly filings were down 13,000, to 348,000, the fourth drop in five weeks. That means fewer layoffs and more hiring. (AP)
State foreclosure activity drops: January's 23 percent decline from a year earlier is the result of fewer default notices, says RealtyTrac. In December and January they averaged fewer than 18,000 a month, compared with more than 28,000 per month from August through November.
Foreclosure flaws in SF: Audit of about 400 recent filings show all kinds of legal violations or suspicious documentation. From the NYT:
The detailed and comprehensive nature of the San Francisco findings suggest how pervasive foreclosure irregularities may be across the nation. The improprieties range from the basic -- a failure to warn borrowers that they were in default on their loans as required by law -- to the arcane. For example, transfers of many loans in the foreclosure files were made by entities that had no right to assign them and institutions took back properties in auctions even though they had not proved ownership.
Disappointing GM earnings: Fourth-quarter profits were below expectations (European operations took a toll), though the numbers for North America looked good. (Reuters)
Greek mishmash: Government officials say that the financial bailout is on track, disputing suggestions of a delay. But European officials want more control over how future aid is spent. From Bloomberg:
Greece's plea for more aid on top of the 110 billion euros awarded in 2010 has stirred recriminations on both sides of Europe's north-south economic divide, with taxpayers in better- off countries rebelling against further handouts. Each day lost brings Greece closer to a March 20 bond redemption when it must make a 14.5 billion-euro payment or become the first country in the euro's 13-year history to default.
DreamWorks Animation plans Shanghai production unit: Look for an announcement during this week's L.A. visit by China's presumptive next leader, Vice President Xi Jinping. From the WSJ:
The potential partnership, and Mr. Xi's visit, comes as U.S. trade officials are seeking to resolve a dispute over movies that has essentially been at a stalemate since 2009, when the World Trade Organization sided with the U.S. in ruling that China should open its market to foreign films. The ruling sought to lift a requirement that foreign movies be sold through a government-run monopoly, which allows only around 20 foreign movies a year to be distributed in China, with box-office revenue split between a state-owned distributor and the producer. Additional films may be exhibited under financial terms less favorable to foreign producers.
Xi to visit Port of L.A.: After arriving at LAX this afternoon, he'll tour the China Shipping terminal, which is undergoing a $121 million expansion that will more than double its space at the port. He'll also be at a trade forum on Friday. (CNS)
Mixed-use project in Santa Monica: The $350-million residential and retail development on a 3-acre site formerly owned by Rand Corp. has been in the works for more than six years. From the LAT:
"It's very difficult to finance condos right now," said Bill Witte, president of Related California, a subsidiary of Related. "The reason we were able to is because the financial community saw this correctly as a unique animal." The seaside location is the lure. Santa Monica has some of the most desirable real estate in the region and it is a challenge to get projects approved by local officials.

Leave the beaten track occasionally and dive into the woods. Every time you do so you will be certain to see something you have never seen before. Of course it will be a little thing, but do not ignore it. Follow it up, explore around it, and before you know it,something worth thinking about to occupy your mind.Alexander Graham Bell
Don't keep forever on the public road. Leave the beaten track behind occasionally and dive into the woods. You will be certain to find something you have never seen before, and something worth thinking about to occupy your mind. All really big discoveries are the result of thought.Alexander Graham Bell
I am a believer in unconscious cerebration. The brain is working all the time, though we do not know it. At night it follows up what we think in the daytime. When I have worked a long time on one thing, I make it a point to bring all the facts regarding it together before I retire; I have often been surprised at the results... We are thinking all the time; it is impossible not to think.Alexander Graham Bell
Men of genius are not quick judges of character. Deep thinking and high imagining blunt that trivial instinct by which you and I size people up.Sir Henry Maximilian Beerbohm
We always feel better in anticipation. You don't think about something and think "Aw, it's gonna be shitty." NO! You say "This is gonna be the greatest weekend ever! Sonuvabitch!" And then, by Monday, you're throwing up and you're thinking "You know, I always thought those guys were pricks!"Lewis Niles Black

Light Energy and Sunscreens
By: Peter T. Pugliese, MD
Posted: March 26, 2009, from the April 2009 issue of Skin Inc. magazine.
page 6 of 13
The dermis contains two proteins that turn over very slowly. Collagen has a half-life of 15–17 years, and elastin is even longer at 70 years. What does half-life mean? This term is best explained by an example. Let's say that in one area of the skin there are 1,000 molecules of collagen (actually you have millions upon millions of molecules of collagen). At age 17, 50% of these molecules will have either disappeared, or have been replaced, but 500 original molecules are still there. At age 34, another 250 molecules will disappear or have been replaced, but 250 of the original molecules are still there. At age 51, there are 125 of the original molecules left and at age 68 there are 6.25 original molecules left. That means these molecules have been subjected to UV radiation continuously for 68 years. No wonder a person gets worn out with time. Do not underestimate the ravages of UV light on these long-lived connective tissue proteins. Only by reducing the insult from high-energy UV radiation can this damage be prevented or attenuated.
Products that are designated as sunscreens are designed to prevent or markedly attenuate high-energy UV from entering the skin. The formulation, manufacturing and marketing of sunscreens is regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) since sunscreens are designated as over-the-counter (OTC) drugs. They can be inorganic physical UV blocking agents, or organic chemicals that absorb UV light at specific wavelengths.
Physical, inorganic blocking agents are usually finely powdered minerals, the most common ones are zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. They act to block UV radiation by reflecting or scattering the rays, although some absorption of UV does occur. They are not normally absorbed, so they tend to produce a white color on the skin. To prevent this, the particles are often reduced in size so they no longer reflect light; particles smaller than 200 nm generally will not be seen on the skin. It is thought that such small particles may be able to penetrate the skin, but one study shows this is not the case.8 Also, in 2006, the Australian government found that zinc oxide and titanium dioxide do remain on the surface and in the outer dead layer of the skin. Bottom line, zinc oxide and titanium dioxide are safe in nanoparticle sizes. They are used alone, in combination or combined with organic chemical sunscreens, which are designed to cover absorption of either UVA or UVB, although some will cover the spectrum of both, though not completely.
UVB and sunscreens. See UVB Sunscreens for the types and amounts of each required to be in a product to provide a given sun protection factor (SPF). When buying a sunscreen, advise clients to look on the label to see how much protection they will get from the sunscreen and help them locate the SPF designation. Keep in mind that this only results in protection from UVB radiation and understand that an SPF rating is only a relative protection from skin-reddening due to the sun's UVB rays. Remember that no sunscreen will stop 100% of UVB, but if it is applied properly, you can depend on an SPF 15 filtering out 93% of UVB, while a product with an SPF 30 filters out 97%, but even a high SPF 50 will filter out only 98%. In some individuals, such as blue-eyed blonds and green-eyed redheads, even 2–4 % of noontime UVB can induce a sunburn.
UVA and sunscreens. Remember that an SPF value does not indicate any protection against UVA. Currently the United States does not have a requirement to test the effectiveness of UVA sunscreens, although four other countries do. See UVA Sunscreens for a full list of approved sunscreens. It does have pending a recommended method to test UVA sunscreens. The methods used are both in vivo, that is, on a live human, or in vitro, instrument type, (literally, in glass). The in vivo test is called the Persistent Pigment Darkening (PPD) method. A PPD score of 10+ is considered good. This test has flaws since it is difficult to relate to real-world sun exposure, and it only measures photon energy below 320 nm.

CPES BPA Ordering Procedures
Comprehensive Professional Energy Services (CPES) Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs) have been established in each of GSA's 11 regions, with 21 GSA Schedule 03FAC (Facilities Maintenance and Management) and 00CORP (Consolidated Schedule) contractors.
Using the following seven simple steps, ordering activities can obtain services through the CPES BPA:
- Determine the Scope
- Prepare the Performance-Based Statement of Work
- Prepare the Request for Quote (RFQ)
- Issue the RFQ
- Evaluate
- Award
- Administer the Task Order
Please visit the CPES BPA Ordering Guide [PDF, 164KB] for a detailed explanation of the ordering process. In addition, ordering activities can visit the Strategic Sourcing Aisle on GSA Advantage! to find detailed pricing information for individual CPES BPA holders. From that page, ordering activities can access GSA's eBuy system, which can be used to obtain quotes from BPA holders. Lastly, the Overview Page of the CPES portal includes links to several documents that will help you throughout the acquisition process.
Other Considerations When Placing An Order
Place of Performance:
In general, GSA and other ordering activities will order from BPA Holders based on the place of performance (building location) within the region where the work is required. For a listing of the geographic area that is covered in each GSA Region, please visit the GSA Regions page. For a list of BPA Holders by region, please visit the BPA Holders page.
Ordering Procedures:
Ordering agencies need only comply with FAR Subparts 8.405-2 and 8.405-3 as applicable, applicable agency specific rules and the following:
- Orders at or below the micro-purchase threshold: Ordering activities can place orders directly with any BPA holder in the region.
- Orders above the micro-purchase threshold and up to $150,000: Ordering activities must forward the requirement, or statement of work and evaluation criteria to at least three (3) BPA Holders in the region.
- Orders above $150,000: Ordering activities must forward the requirement or statement of work and evaluation criteria to more than three (3) BPA Holders.
Request for Quotes (RFQs)
When the eBuy method is chosen to distribute your Request for Quotes (RFQ), ordering agencies can now select which BPA Holders the system will notify about an RFQ being issued.
Alternatively, RFQs may also be distributed via email in accordance with the ordering procedures shown above.
It is the responsibility of the ordering activity to specify the place of performance in the RFQ, and the responsibility of both the ordering activity and BPA holders to ensure, prior to task order award, that services can be performed in the place of performance, as specified in the RFQ.
BPA holders should anticipate rapid quote submission times, usually within one to two days of issuing the RFQ.
Once quotes are received, the ordering activity will evaluate all responses and place the order with the BPA Holder that represents the best value to the government.
Acquiring Ancillary Products and Services
If your order will require support products in addition to services, there are several options available to obtain these ancillary products.
For administrative convenience, BPA orders may include "open market" items (e.g., items that have not already been priced, evaluated, and awarded on the contractor's GSA Schedule), as long as the value does not exceed the applicable micro-purchase threshold as defined in FAR 2.101. The items must be clearly identified as "open market" items, in accordance with FAR Subpart 8.402(f).
In addition, GSA's Chief Acquisition Officer signed a deviation to FAR Part 51 which allows federal government contracting officers to authorize BPA holders to buy support products or services, not requiring a statement of work, from other MAS contractors (including contractors not on the BPA) or through the GSA Global Supply Program when deemed appropriate for fulfillment of ordering agency requirements. See FAR Part 51 Deviation Guide for more details.
If you have any questions, please call the National Customer Service Center (NCSC) at (800) 488-3111 or direct your email inquiries to the Multiple Award Schedule Helpdesk.

Teaching: Hand Made Life
If you go far enough down into your personal ancestry and into the old stories of the world you'll find three thrones of mystery, three places where awe always did and still gathers, even in our post Enlightenment, post Christian, post Holy, Information Idol time. Women, and all things feminine, where life comes into Life, have always been there. The dead have always been there, whispering a story of our lives that we no longer know. And the makers of things have the other throne of mystery, the ones to whom the Holy has always come as a co-conspirator, a relentlessly demanding ally.
Where the brute ingenuity of being human is pressed into service by the life defending power of the Holy, in that place is where craft is properly and well made. Think of the stories: the one who stole fire and died every day for the theft; the one whose children will always be lame for the alchemy of the forge; the one who spun gold with runes and chants. This is the old lineage of the craftsperson.
For years I have wanted to do teachings that make praise songs and songs of gratitude and encouragement for the makers in our midst who have not abandoned and forgotten their thumbs, and for the things they make, things that are routinely trivialized instead of being honourably employed. These workshops are those songs.
We do these workshops periodically at the Orphan Wisdom farm, but you can also bring them to your community centre or school. Become a local sponsor and help to make a teaching event that we could present in your community. Contact us to learn how.
The Skin of the World: Hide tanning workshop
The ages-old skills of hide and fur tanning came from a lived understanding of animal ways, and from a hard earned ceremonialized understanding of the place of hunting and food preparation in village and personal life. These skills are rooted in an always renewed and relearned relationship of human life and animal life, a relationship severed by commercialized, industrialized ways of 'processing' animals.
This hands-on workshop will teach the techniques and the deep history of leather tanning.
Note: This is at minimum a two day workshop. A short list of tools/materials is provided at registration.
Moving in the World: Handmade leather tailoring
Globalization may have begun with standardizing the inch and the foot, and from then on the body has had to suit the measurement. But good tailors learn the subtleties of the body in motion, of proportion, and a fine antidote to globalization is making clothing that fits the living body. The learning is deep when you cut the leather you tanned, and deeper still when you know the story of its origins.
This workshop teaches sinew stitching and lace braiding, pattern layout, cutting and sewing without metal. Possible tailoring projects include clothing, bags, and ceremonial regalia.
Walking in Beauty: Making footwear
With global commercialization, clothing that is true to one's place and people is one of the first casualties, and now all you can tell from a person's clothing, probably, is where they shop. Until modern times you could know who someone's people were by seeing how they dressed. You could tell where a person was from by how they walked and by what they wore on their feet. When you can feel the ground beneath your feet, you can walk.
In this workshop you will learn some basic footwear designs from this part of the world, and sew a pair of shoes that are made for your feet.
The Bark Box: Making birch bark containers
In the northeast of this continent where we live and teach traditional people still revere wikwas, the birch. Its sap is nourishing, its wood is workable, and its bark is a marvel of strength and flexibility.
In this workshop you will learn the skills of sustainable bark harvest, spruce root gathering and sewing, maybe even birch bark biting, and make a lidded container from the bush.
Wikwas Chimaun: The birch bark canoe
The birch bark canoe incarnates the full genius of an aboriginal way of life. It is a spirited thing and a sonorous, beautiful way of moving in the water. It has much the same architecture as the human body, and it is a drum.
This workshop teaches the principles of bark, wood, root and gum harvesting and preparation, tool making (the awl and the crooked knife), steam bending, and the miraculous assembly of skin-first boat technology.
One of Your Own: The paddle
If God lives in the details, then the paddle surely is among the most Godly of things.
This workshop teaches the quiet skills of body measurement, wood seasoning and pattern layout, bone inlay, the noble taper and finish of a water ready paddle.
ROYAL, AND WARM: The little miracle of felt.
By the beginning of the 20th century you could tell who the poor people were in most Western countries by who was still wearing felt. Woven clothing eclipsed felted clothing almost everywhere it was available, and the recent revival of felting mostly relegates it to novelty and decoration. But felt has a noble, indigenous history for anyone whose ancestry is northern, and its compound beauty is in no animal dying for us to be warm, and royal in raiment.
This workshop teaches the communal skills of felting from fleece, and seamless clothing and footwear design. If you are a good worker, you can wear it home.
Heartbeat Box:A hand drum workshop
Learn the old tricks of making a living drum from steam bent wood and hide.

Q - Okay, so what is the deal with Purgatory?
A - Thanks for the question. First let me tell you what Purgatory is not. Purgatory is not heaven or hell. Purgatory is not a permanent state of being. Purgatory is not a "second chance" after we die to get it right. Purgatory is not how we "earn our way to heaven". Purgatory is not saying that Christ's sacrifice was insufficient.
So, now that we have that out of the way, we can go on to the doctrinal aspects of it. We will start with what the Church says about it.
In the Catechism of the Catholic Church it states the following:
1030 All who die in God's grace and friendship, but still imperfectly purified, are indeed assured of their eternal salvation; but after death they undergo purification, so as to achieve the holiness necessary to enter the joy of heaven.
1031 The Church gives the name Purgatory to this final purification of the elect, which is entirely different from the punishment of the damned.606 The Church formulated her doctrine of faith on Purgatory especially at the Councils of Florence and Trent. The tradition of the Church, by reference to certain texts of Scripture, speaks of a cleansing fire:607
1032 This teaching is also based on the practice of prayer for the dead, already mentioned in Sacred Scripture: "Therefore [Judas Maccabeus] made atonement for the dead, that they might be delivered from their sin."609 From the beginning the Church has honored the memory of the dead and offered prayers in suffrage for them, above all the Eucharistic sacrifice, so that, thus purified, they may attain the beatific vision of God.610 The Church also commends almsgiving, indulgences, and works of penance undertaken on behalf of the dead:
- As for certain lesser faults, we must believe that, before the Final Judgment, there is a purifying fire. He who is truth says that whoever utters blasphemy against the Holy Spirit will be pardoned neither in this age nor in the age to come. From this sentence we understand that certain offenses can be forgiven in this age, but certain others in the age to come.608
- Let us help and commemorate them. If Job's sons were purified by their father's sacrifice, why would we doubt that our offerings for the dead bring them some consolation? Let us not hesitate to help those who have died and to offer our prayers for them.611
- So, from the Church's own official documents we can see that Purgatory is the "final cleansing" of sin that we commit while on earth. This is because as Revelation 21:27 says, "nothing unclean shall enter" into heaven. If we are not perfect, and I haven't met a perfect person yet, and yet still merit (by God's grace alone) heaven, then we need to go through this purgation before entering into glory.
Some also say that it is unbiblical. While the word "purgatory" may not be in the Bible, there are certain passages that implicitly contain the basis of purgatory.
Matt 5: 25-26 says,
"Make friends quickly with your accuser, while you are going with him to court, lest your accuser hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the guard, and you be put in prison; truly, I say to you, you will never get out till you have paid the last penny."--Here we are being told that we will ultimately be held responsible for all of our actions. There are two dimensions to being forgiven for a sin, the divine and the human. While we may be forgiven by God, we still have to go to our brother for forgiveness as well. Here it says that if we fail to obtain the human dimension of forgiveness, then God will hold us responsible ultimately. But, the human element does not merit eternal, but rather finite, punishment. So, it leaves open the door to Purgatory, which is finite.
Next in 1 Corinthians 3:11-15 Paul writes,
"For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If any man builds on this foundation using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, his work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each man's work. If what he has built survives, he will receive his reward. If it is burned up, he will suffer loss; he himself will be saved, but only as one escaping through the flames."--Paul is saying that we will not enter into our reward until we are cleansed of all unrighteousness. Clearly Paul says we will be "saved", but there will be loss and flames through which one escapes. Also, this loss will be for those things which are not of value.
Lastly, in 2 Maccebees 12 we see the practice of Jews offering up sacrifices for the dead. They would not do those in heaven or hell any good, so the passage at least points to the Jewish beliefs in some other state of being in the afterlife.
With all of this evidence we couple some ancient Christian statements on Purgatory and the evidence seems pretty weighty.
