The latest Jonas Brothers change-up is decidedly less dramatic.
The eldest Jonas, Kevin, 25, is in the process of building a new home in New Jersey, where his current Denville digs is on the market.
Jonas and expectant wife Danielle are asking for $2.2 million to move into the 7,200-sq. ft., five-bedroom house, which serves as the backdrop of their E! reality series, Married to Jonas.
Joe Jonas Breaks Silence, Says He Wants to Act

A very dapper Joe Jonas stepped out Thursday night but remained tight-lipped about the drama surrounding the staggeringly successful band he built with his brothers.
When asked about the Jonas Brothers, who've canceled their tour due to a "deep rift within the band" and deleted the group's Twitter account amid buzz they're not getting along, Jonas, 24, replied: "I'm not going to talk about that right now."
However, Jonas, who was attending the inaugural gala for the new Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts Gala in Beverly Hills, did offer a hint at what the future holds.

Nick Jonas and his rumored girlfriend, Miss Universe Olivia Culpo, made it clear that they're a couple when they were spotted kissing courtside at the U.S. Open tennis tournament in New York on Tuesday.
The pair – who reportedly met when the 20-year-old co-hosted the Miss USA pageant in June – were on a double date with Joe Jonas and his girlfriend, Blanda Eggenschwiler.

Coachella: Relive the Music Festival in Six-Second Clips
Originally posted 04/15/2013 08:30PM
Coachella is expected to attract more than 80,000 attendees this year.
Some people (like Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart) attend the festival for the great music.
And others, like Joe and Nick Jonas, Katy Perry, Leonardo DiCaprio, Spring Breakers star Ashley Benson and The Bachelor winner Catherine Giudici were all about the parties that surround the annual music festival in Indio, Calif.
And can you blame them? From man-made beaches to splashy pool parties, carnival rides and delicious food and drink, see how VIPs unwind far from the festival's crowds.

Coachella, the two-weekend long music festival in Indio, Calif., started off on a high note when it hosted a number of famous fans over the weekend – including Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Katy Perry, Julianne Hough and more.
But just because the first weekend of the two-part concert in the desert has come to an end doesn't mean the celebrity guests were ready to stop partying.

"I hope everyone at some point has had a course that mentioned beta decay," Texas A &M professor John Hardy says to a mostly male audience wearing the latest in scientist style: Button-down, short-sleeved plaid shirts without pocket protectors.
I sink deeper into my chair, strategically located right next to the door for a quick exit. I was a history major, and beta decay sounds like a dental problem to me.
But Donna Sund, a 76-year-old retiree sporting a hot pink visor, gets it. She nods knowingly between mouthfuls of vegetables and Hydrox cookies. A former chemistry student, this Tempe resident is a familiar face at Arizona State University's science lectures.
"I add to my knowledge," Sund says. "It beats sitting in front of a TV all day."
Whatever your interest, ASU's lectures have something to offer. It's an eclectic mix offered by various departments and colleges — topics include everything from women in 19th-century France to the deaths of dinosaurs. The lectures are free and open to the public. And the lecturers are top notch, including visiting professors such as Hardy and the former president of Venezuela.
To find out about upcoming lectures, visit http://events.asu.edu and choose the lecture calendar. Or pick up a copy of ASU Insight, the university's faculty and staff publication.
And if feeding your brain isn't reason enough to deal with parking and academic angst, there's always the free-food table. That's something anyone can understand.

I have been playing for a year as well. I have had 2 birdies to date. Celebrated the 1st one quite a bit. They were on a par-4 and a par-5. As others have said though, Birdies are for advanced level..If you just started playing though and have only played 4 times, I would say you are in very good shape so far.

If you've come to golf for instant gratification then you came to the wrong sport.
For me, golf is and has been about time and patience. The less time you put in the less you can expect from your play. The less patient you are, the less you will play. While that may be similar to many, if not all sports, golf is different than most. It is you against the game. Once you feel as if you conquered it, she humbles you. Once you feel you are dialed in, she hangs up on you. Once you feel trust in a shot, she double crosses you. But once you feel deflated, ground down, peppered, beat up, tired and hopeless, she picks you up, dusts you off and draws you back for more.

You just gotta forget about the big picture of scoring under than 100, and come up with lesser goals that are realistic. My wife, who has never broken 100, has some unique strategies when golfing:
* When she started playing golf, her goal was to make a score that had a name: double bogie, bogie, par, birdie, etc. Snowmen didn't count.
• Now her goal is to break her age for nine holes.
• Another goal is to finish 9 holes without any three putts.
Just remember, enjoy the journey and don't worry about the destination.

This bag its suck a helpful thing to have while traveling. It is easy to carry with some room for your shoes or what ever else. The only problem I ever had with it was with a zipper but that was easily fixed with some pliers.

The town of Ceres, near Modesto, is like many small towns in the San Joaquin Valley. The farmworkers who pick the fruits, nuts and vegetables or work in the canneries often don't have convenient ways to buy the produce they harvest. The lower-income side of town doesn't have a grocery store, but there's plenty of fast food. Residents say the tap water is cloudy and smells funny. At the convenience store, bottled soda is cheaper than bottled water.
It's a story that can be told time and again in the small towns and unincorporated areas that dot the eight counties that make up the San Joaquin Valley. It's a story the advocates at the Central California Regional Obesity Prevention Project, or CCROPP, are trying to rewrite.
"We are not your typical obesity prevention program," said Brandie Banks-Bey, with CCROPP. "We focus our efforts on environmental and policy changes that support healthy eating."
Partnerships Address Problems Regionally
CCROPP partners with community organizations and also trains local residents to become more civically engaged through programs such as Powerful People Building Leadership for Healthy Communities. Continue reading

- National annual effective rent growth of 4.7% in November is the strongest result since August 2011, reports Axiometrics.
- Axiometrics' Jay Denton: "The combination of an improving job market, and a growing percentage of the population that prefers renting to owning, continues to boost apartment demand."
- Year-to-date rent growth of 5% makes 2014 the strongest post-recession year. 2010 was the previous high at 4.6%.
- The occupancy rate continued a seasonal decline, but at 94.8% it's the strongest November read since Axiometrics started reporting monthly in 2008.

Mon, Nov. 24, 2:40 PM
- Expected rent growth of 3.9% in 2015 is a bit slower than this year's 4%, according to the NAR, but it's still about 200 basis points higher than inflation.
- Though anticipated to edge upward, vacancy rates will still be scraping bottom - 4.1% in 2015 and 4.2% in 2015 vs. 4% this year. When vacancy rates are below 5%, it's considered a "landlord's market" in which property owners can continue to hike rents, says the NAR.
- Apartment REITs: Equity Residential (NYSE:EQR), AvalonBay (NYSE:AVB), Essex Property Trust (NYSE:ESS), Post Properties (NYSE:PPS), UDR, Aimco (NYSE:AIV), Camden Property Trust (NYSE:CPT), Home Properties (NYSE:HME), Mid-America Apartment Communities (NYSE:MAA).

- Rental revenue for established communities (51,524 apartments) up 3.7% to $336.45M. NOI for established communities of $233.525M up 5.5%.
- Overall rental rates up 3.7%, with the Pacific Northwest leading, up 7.6% and the Mid-Atlantic lagging, down 0.6%.
- Full-year core FFO expected at $6.78-$6.84.
- Conference call tomorrow at 1 ET

Tue, Oct. 14, 3:10 PM
- The vacancy rate ticked higher to 4.2% in Q3 from 4.1 a quarter earlier - not much of a move, but the first increase in almost five years, according to REIS. Another survey - this one from MPF Research - says vacancy fell to 4.3% from 4.4% across the country's top 100 markets.
- Where the two reports both agree, however, is that there were significant construction deliveries during Q3 and a full pipeline of new construction going forward, suggesting neither vacancies nor rents have a lot of room improvement.
- The potential weakening fundamentals come as apartment REITs have been this year's top-performing REIT sectors (make that any sector) with a total return of 23.65% YTD. Can the outperformance continue?
- Names of interest are almost all having a big day today as interest rates continue to fall. One suspects that as long as rates stay low and first-time homebuyers or those with less-than-perfect credit have trouble getting mortgages, the apartment REITs might still get a bid: EQR, AVB, ESS, PPS, UDR, AIV, CPT, HME, MAA, AEC, IRET, TSRE
Fri, Oct. 10, 11:42 AM
- The FTSE NAREIT All REITs Index gained 13.08 during the year's first nine months, and had a dividend yield of 4.31% as of September 30. The S&P 500 had a total return of 8.34% over the same period, and a dividend yield of 2.06%.
- The big YTD performance comes even after a 2.63% decline in the just-ended Q3 (vs. the S&P's 1.13% decline).
- Apartment REITs (EQR, AVB, ESS, PPS, UDR, to name a few) have been the biggest winner so far this year, with total return of 20.29% In second place at 16.76% are self-storage REITs (PSA, SSS, CUBE, EXR).
- Mortgage REITs (REM, MORT, MORL) had a total return of 12.69%.

- "We will take what economic activity we can get, but our housing market model was designed in the U.S. to build a lot of single-family homes for owners, not multifamily homes for renters," says Diane Swonk commenting on yesterday's big jump in housing starts.
- A big share of the gain came from multifamily starts - typically a volatile number - but a rolling 12-month total shows apartment construction at its highest level in 25 years. Single-family housing has a bigger multiplier effect for both consumer spending and employment, says Swonk.
- As for apartment owners, a separate report showed rents up 3.3% Y/Y, their fastest pace of increase in five years. It's little mystery why the stocks of companies like Equity Residential (NYSE:EQR) and AvalonBay (NYSE:AVB) are at all-time highs, but their owners may want to mull the fast pace of building.
- Others of interest: ESS, PPS, UDR, AIV, CPT, HME, MAA, TSRE, AEC, IRET, APTS
Thu, Jul. 24, 10:40 AM
- The apartment building owner last night beat estimates on the top and bottom lines and raised full-year guidance.
- This morning, ISI Group chimes in with an upgrade to Buy and $156 price target, citing expected contribution from AvalonBay's (AVB +2.2%) $3.2B development pipeline.
- AVB results aren't necessarily filtering through to the rest of the apartment sector, which is mixed. Equity Residential (EQR +0.3%), Essex Property (ESS), Aimco (AIV -0.2%), Camden Properties (CPT -0.1%).
Wed, Jul. 23, 4:34 PM
- Adjusted FFO per share of $1.70 up 4.9% from a year ago.
- Established Communities now includes the assets acquired as part of the Archstone purchase, and average rental rates increased 3.2% Y/Y, partially offset by a 10 basis point drop in occupancy. NOI for established communities of $230M gained 2.8%. Rental rate increases were particularly strong in the Pacific Northwest and Northern California.
- Q3 adjusted FFO per share expected at $1.69-$1.75, and full-year adjusted FFO per share at $6.73-$6.87.
- Previously: AvalonBay Communities beats by $0.03, beats on revenue

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. -- A New York judge has ordered a mental exam for a man accused of fatally stabbing three women in 20 years.
Lucius Crawford, of Mount Vernon, N.Y., pleaded not guilty Monday at his Westchester County arraignment on two of the killings. A third murder case is being prosecuted in the Bronx.
Crawford's lawyer requested the mental evaluation. He says he believes the 60-year-old defendant may be mentally disabled.
Relatives of the victims who were in court said afterward that the claim was nonsense.
Crawford has spent 30 years in prison for non-fatal stabbings in New York and South Carolina going back to the 1970s.

Variable Formations was recorded at a gig at London's Café Oto in February 2013. The music on it was the final set of the evening, having been preceded by a solo piano set from John Tilbury in which he used themes and sound samples from the 1939 film The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, a semi-improvised duo set from violist Johnny Chang and Canada-born synth player Jamie Drouin who were visiting from Berlin, and a trio set from violinist Angharad Davies, Lee Patterson on amplified objects and electronicist Phil Durrant playing pages from Eva-Maria Houben's composition 'Von Da Nach Na' as ...read more
The trio of saxophonist John Butcher, synthesiser player Thomas Lehn and pianist John Tilbury had a certain inevitability about it. Although they had not recorded together prior to this album, each of the three possible pairs had done so--Lehn and Tilbury when the Englishman recorded the extraordinary The Hands of Caravaggio (Erstwhile, 2002) with MIMEO of which Lehn was a member, Butcher and Tilbury when the saxophonist joined AMM to record Trinity (Matchless, 2008), and Butcher and Lehn when the latter was a member of the large John Butcher Group which recorded Somethingtobesaid (Weight of Wax, 2009) at the 2008 ...read more
If it weren't for the sound of one hand clapping, we would have no resonance at all.That snarky summation might best describe this hour-long duo performance by former AMM ensemble band mates Keith Rowe and John Tilbury. Like the zen koan one hand clapping," this music evokes an almost instantaneous meditation.Recorded just outside of Paris in December 2010 at Les Instants Chavirés, this duo brings together two legends of British improvisation not heard together on record since Duos for Doris (Erstwhile, 2003). Rowe's, while purposefully non-musical does summon a sort of mechanical euphonic. Playing ...read more
Pianist John Tilbury is renowned not only for his work in AMM and his other improvising, but also as a peerless interpreter of such contemporary composers as Morton Feldman, John Cage, Christian Wolff and Howard Skempton. He is uniquely well positioned to reflect on the similarities and contrasts between improvising and playing repertoire. Tilbury's biography of his friend, associate and erstwhile member of AMM, Cornelius Cardew, which took him over two decades to write, has been recognized as the definitive statement on Cardew's life and work. In conversation, Tilbury frequently makes reference to Cardew's views ...read more
Lost Daylight has been a long time arriving. It has been much trailed, and eagerly anticipated since 2008, as indicated by its low catalogue number, at10.

Although, perhaps, best-known for his long-established membership in AMM and his other improvised work, pianist John Tilbury is just as renowned for his recordings of scores by John Cage, Cornelius Cardew, Morton Feldman, Howard Skempton and Christian Wolff. ...read more

Teens charged with murder in Osceola County moved to adult court
Updated On: Jul 29 2013 02:37:10 PM EDT
Local teens accused in two shooting deaths and a string of random shootings faced a judge again on Monday.
Konrad Schafer, 15, and Victoria Rios, 17, were moved to adult court and held with no bond.
According to police, Schafer said he used his father's high-powered rifle and killed 17-year-old David Guerrero because it would be "fun and cool." He said David Damus, 20, drove him around as he randomly picked out targets, police said.
Deputies charged Schafer, Damus, Juan Sebastian Muriel, 20, and Rios with first-degree murder in the Fourth of July death of 22-year-old Eric Roopnarine in Poinciana. His mother said she left the home for an hour and a half and when she returned, her son was dead. There were no signs of forced entry in the home.
Deputies said Damus was the shooter and Schafer cut his throat. Rios reportedly knew Roopnarine.
Detectives said the crimes were solved based on a bullet casing found at the scene of the Guerrero shooting that was unique to a .45 Hi-Point carbine. Police reached out to gun dealers to find who bought a similar gun, which turned out to be the father of Schafer.
All four are being held without bond.

For a kid-friendly Passover, try rounding out the seder plate with some off-menu additions
From a kid's perspective, the items on the seder plate are, to use a technical term, yucky. Since part of the point of Passover is engaging kids in the story of the Exodus, let's imagine a seder plate that would retain the symbolism of the original while being far less puketastic.
To refresh your memory: The traditional items on a seder plate are charoset, a fruit-and-nut paste; karpas, a vegetable to dip in salt water; maror, bitter herbs—usually horseradish and/or hazeret, romaine lettuce, or other bitter greens; z'roa, a roasted shank bone or chicken neck; and beitzah, a hard-boiled egg. Whether your child is wise, evil, simple, or unable to ask questions, he or she is sure to appreciate a seder-plate reboot. (Seriously: As a seder game, you might ask your guests what other items could stand in for the familiar items on the seder plate. What, besides an orange, might one wish to add? What modern items could replace the traditional ones? What specific substitutions might be resonant for your particular guests?)
On to our plate:
Piece Meal
The first Passover celebrations included neither haggadah nor seder. With the passage of millennia, the two have become central elements. Herewith an interactive guide to the collage of texts that constitutes the holiday's guidebook.

If you're a little bit apprehensive about making the leap to an entirely new business, you can get started on a slightly smaller scale. Follow the example of Tom Caldwell and Todd Blaudow of TDI Products Inc., who founded the Jacksonville Beach, Florida, company in 2000 specifically to find undermarketed or poorly manufactured products and make them profitable.
Focusing on the boat and RV industry, the partners found that securing their first product line from an ailing company was not an easy task. The inventor of the product, a cord-and-hose system for boats and RVs, had licensed the patent, so there was a third party involved. "We had to buy the patents from the designer as well as acquire the manufacturing rights from the people he [had] licensed it to," says Caldwell.
Once they finally had a struggling product to revamp, Caldwell, 34, and Blaudow, 32, knew they would have to design and manufacture it from scratch. "We had to completely redesign the thing," remembers Caldwell. They retooled the design and manufacturing elements to achieve a more desirable price point and ensure that the product worked reliably every single time.
Armed with a new and improved offering, TDI Products sought out old customers first-even those who'd stopped buying from their predecessors. "We took the old product, showed them [the] problems we'd identified and showed them our new working product," says Caldwell.
Experts agree that approaching your customer base is crucial to turning a business around. "Talk to [people] in the market," says Kramer. "Ask them, 'What are you planning to spend your money on in the future?' Find out what customers can use more of."
Caldwell and Blaudow were so successful in their customer-courting that they're now inundated with suggestions for new product lines and ways to expand their first line-though at the moment, they have their hands full with building their customer base and slowly increasing their nearly $1 million in sales.
As these entrepreneurs have demonstrated, turning around a business is never easy-but with some energy and innovation, even the most troubled business can be transformed into a shining success story.

It is likely that a novice or beginning family historian will need a little guidance in order to begin their new adventure climbing their family tree. It is the duty, in my humble opinion, of the novice to become educated so that their work will meet current standards.
There are many educational opportunities available and for the next week or so, I plan to discuss many of those opportunities on a series of blogs. This is the first of the series.
Over the years numerous "how-to" books have been published some of which may be available at a local library. Here is a list of my top ten choices for the library of a novice genealogist.
If you have other favorites for the beginner, please share them in the "Comments" area below.

The community index project, spearheaded by FamilySearch, was a stellar example of what happens when the genealogical community makes a collaborative effort. The project was completed several months ahead of schedule. Those of you that participated may be having withdrawal symptoms. If so, I've got the perfect cure!
Family Search has instigated two new community projects and still need your voluntary assistance.
More information on the FamilySearch community projects will be heading your way shortly!

Yesterday, The Village Festival at Big Canoe made its debut. The festival will be a weekly event on Saturday morning (9:00 am – 12:00 pm) through the end of October.
According to plan I arrived a few short minutes before opening, and was horrified to see that parking was already at a premium and swarms of people. "Suck it in," I told myself, "find a place to park, and then pretend that you alone will be visiting each stand." Easier said than done for this wimpy agoraphobic. None-the-less, I did manage to make a very quick tour of the booths, pick up a few business cards, and snap a few shots with my phone.
Coles Lake Creamery from Carrollton, Georgia, had a lovely display for their goat cheese and homemade soap products. They are a small grade A dairy milking about 35 does. I came home with a three pack of onion & chives, garlic, and Italian herb cheeses. Delicious! These young men appear to be relatively new in the world of marketing and as of yet do not have a business card to say nothing about a website.
Jim Oneacre had a marvelous selection of homemade baskets, "Baskets by Jim." I hope to find a need for another basket before next week. Jim doesn't take credit cards and I did not much cash with me. I will plan ahead in the future.
Etowah River Pottery had a nice display of soap dishes, teaspoon holders (think I'd call them teabag holders), This small company from Dahlonega also had a nice selection of homemade soap.
All in all the market place was successful and hopefully the crowds will simmer down a bit as the season wears on. There is one need from improvement, however. More space needs to be provided for parking and something must be done about the dreadful traffic flow problem. Hopefully Bill Burns will see that problem is minimized by next week.

In July of 2010, Pamela Boyer Sayre, CG, CGL, and I drove to Fairfax Public Access broadcasting facility in Fairfax County, Virginia, where each of us recorded a session for Tracing Your Family Roots. Pam was taped discussing the "Social Security Sleuthing" and I discussed "American Indian research, in particular the Cherokee Indians." It was a very interesting experience.
This past Sunday we made our second appearance, this time in studio A rather than studio C. My topic was "Creating a Genealogical Website" and Pam talked about "GEDcom: Genealogy Data Communication." Our recordings will be available online after they have been released to public access channels.
Tracing Your Family Roots is a television series of half hour shows that are produced at Fairfax Public Access (FPA). The shows are hosted by Arline Sachs with co-host Chuck Mason, CG, and produced by Sidney Sachs. The shows are scheduled on a variety of public access stations in several states. After the shows have been aired they are made available online to the general public at Tracing Your Family Roots. As of this date, over 100 broadcasts are available for you to view. There are a large variety of topics including African-American, American Indians, Jewish genealogical research, German research, interpreting DNA results, military records, vital records, and so much more. Many of the national recognized speakers have taped with the Sachs including Megan Smolenyak Smolenyak; John Humphrey, CG; Tom Jones, CG; and Sandra MacLean Clunies, CG.

It was a delicious day, perfect temperatures, beautiful skies, and lovely azaleas, red buds and dogwoods as the Sayres and I prepared for a day of adventure. We drove to Gettysburg to tour the battlefield in a way foreign to all three of us—using Segways provided by the Velke's SegTours of Gettysburg. Following the first intimidating moments when we stepped on our mounts: Fire Fly, Teddy, and Dixie.
We were provided instructions and training for our tour before leaving the premises. Only after the staff was satisfied that we would all navigate well, were we allowed to leave our training cones and ramps behind to tackle the real world.
Are you wondering about Fire Fly, Teddy, and Dixie? Velke has named each segway for one of the horses associated in some way with the Battle of Gettysburg. Fire Fly was the mount of Confederate Maj. Gen. Robert E. Rodes; Dixie the horse of Colonel Edward Porter Alexander; and Teddy…well, Teddy is new to the fleet and I don't know who rode Teddy during the battle.
We road through the edge of town and out onto the county roads. The ride and day were just wonderful! In fact awesome!

Geek Chic Wedding Inspiration
A little secret about the OneFabDay crew - we're supernerds!

Drought takes toll on park renowned for wildflowers
Lisa Morehouse/KQED
Anza-Borrego Desert State Park is famous for its wildflowers. But, this is the third year in a row of drier-than-usual weather near the Salton Sea, making wildflowers scarce.
The California Report's Lisa Morehouse says that's creating some anxiety and a few opportunities for those who live near - and love - California's biggest state park.

Pitbull configuration?
Anyone proud of their setup and want to link it up? Apparently something reset the other day when I updated. I prefer Pitbull on my pally for when I do have to heal, I feel it's better caster UI and I use ag_uf for my melee characters. I turn off party and raid frames when I run and just use Grid for raid status.

Adding a tagging feature to blog
I've been trying to figure out how to implement a simple tagging feature to my blog script, but for the life of me, I can not figure it out!
I understand how to actually add the tags to the database and each entry, but not how to retrieve them.
For now, all I've formulated is this:
- Create a table called blog_tags add a tag_id field, tag_blog_id field and tag_name field.
- The tag_blog_id field will hold a blog ID - each tag a blog is given will have one entry in blog_tags: so, if an entry has 3 tags, it will have 3 entries in the blog_tags table
- Get a list of matching blog entries using a JOIN statement, joining blog_entries table and blog_tags table
So, to make a long story short, I need help with the JOIN statement...any suggestions?
Sorry if this post is a bit confusing, I've tried to explain it the best that I could
Edit: I've seemed to have found a good solution, problem resolved!

note that it might have been possible to resolve or reduce some of these knowledge gaps with available data and information. The monitoring results from the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection, and Restoration Act (CWPPRA) projects provide an extremely rich and unique source of information, and although considerable analysis of the monitoring data has been carried out, it is believed that significantly more general information could have been extracted and contributed to confidence in the LCA Study and design. The critical knowledge gaps lie in the causal factors of land loss—ecological, hydrological, socioeconomic, and anthropogenic (e.g., engineering). Where possible, views of the most suitable approaches to reducing these gaps are shared.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' [USACE] LCA Study describes these knowledge gaps as "uncertainties" and lists the following four types (see Chapter 6):
Type 1: Physical, chemical, geological, and biological baseline conditions
Type 2: Engineering concepts and operational methods
Type 3: Ecological processes, analytical tools, and ecosystem response
Type 4: Socioeconomic and political conditions and responses
These are broad characterizations of uncertainties, and in this chapter, more specific knowledge gaps are identified. The LCA Study appropriately considers adaptive management as one approach to dealing with uncertainties. Real estate issues, considered here as one of the socioeconomic knowledge gaps, are discussed in the LCA Study.
It is interesting that various investigators who have studied wetland loss in Louisiana for decades hold different views as to the dominant cause(s). Possible causes include canals cut for access to oil and gas facilities; oil and gas exploration; the grazing by fur-bearing animals (i.e., nutria); and the maintenance of a fixed water course for the Mississippi River and the associated losses of freshwater, nutrients, and sediments to deep water. Although it is understood that all of these are contributors, there was a surprising divergence of assessments by experts as discussed below. Establishing the relative importance of various causes of land loss would have been helpful to the architects of the overall restoration development and execution. If the relative causes were known area by area, it would be possible to target the most appropriate solutions more effectively. The gap in knowledge of land loss rates is discussed in Box 7.1.

The Charlotte Catholic girls' swimming and diving team won its 11th straight state championship at the Triangle Aquatic Center in Cary with a dominating performance that included eight individual state championships and six new state records.The Cougars scored 496 points in the N.C. High School Athletic Association 3A meet Feb. 9, more than 200 more than second place Marvin Ridge."They had a heck of a meet," said coach Brian Gross. "They just surprised the heck out of me with the way they swam."Charlotte Catholic won all but four of the events at the meet: diving, 500-yard freestyle, 100 breaststroke and 100 backstroke. They finished second in all of those events."They're a fast group of girls," said Gross. "I was by no means expecting us to win every event because there's a lot of good swimmers in the state."Freshman Nora McCullagh was a huge addition to the team this year, winning the 50-yard freestyle and swimming on the 200 and 400 freestyle relays that won the state championships. The 200 relay team (McCullagh, Maria Sheridan, Christine Sullivan and Lauren Rhodes) and the 400 team (McCullagh, Ashlyn Koletic, Elsa Welshofer and Rhodes) both broke all-division state records."Those (relays) were mind boggling," said Gross. "It's nice to see a 3A school have those records because most of them are 4A driven."The Cougars started the meet with a win in the 200 medley relay (Sheridan, Allison McDonough, Welshofer and Koletic), breaking its own record from two years ago. Rhodes set a 3A state record in the 200-yard freestyle event with a time of 1:50.22 and Nicole Emery won the 200 individual medley with a 3A state record time of 2:03.63. Welshofer and Sheridan finished first and second in the 100 butterfly and Rhodes and Koletic finished first and second in the 100 freestyle race. Rhodes set a 3A state record of 50.55 in that event.Gross said he was most impressed by an event that the Cougars didn't win: the 500-yard freestyle. Even though he said his swimmers weren't rested or prepared for the race, Sullivan became the first Catholic girls' swimmer to break five minutes in the race, finishing second. McCullagh finished third."The 500 really surprised me," said Gross. "That was a great swim."The Charlotte Catholic boys' team finished second at the meet for the fourth year in a row, scoring 228 points to first-place Cardinal Gibbons' 275.The Cougars' Matthew Rigali finished second in the 200 breaststroke event. The boys' 200-yard medley relay (Kevin Kirby, Matthew Rigali, Nick Rhodes and Ryan Hall), 200-yard freestyle relay (Michael Curry, William Webb, Cameron Hoyer and Hall) and 400-yard freestyle relay (Curry, Kirby, Nick Rhodes and Hoyer) each finished third.

AND that includes Cam. Gettlemen is old and believes in old football. I have said it since he arrived. Newton will be gone soon....and that will be unfortunate. He is the type game changer a franchise may never see again....but you have to be all in with him.
Did you not listen to gettleman's press conference when he was being introduced? He said that superbowl winning teams need two things an elite qb and a stout defense. Gettleman said that we already have our elite qb now we just need to build up our defense.
If you don't like cam for whatever reason then say it, don't try to put words in gettleman's mouth and act as if he wants another qb. Cam is our franchise qb, gettleman believes, the owner believes it. The only people who don't are people like you.
I have to wonder if people on this forum are not tired of being wrong when they say stupid things like this.
