Surveillance Tools at Issue in Lawsuit
By Chad Bray, The Wall Street Journal
The American Civil Liberties Union will be in federal court Tuesday as it seeks to force the U.S. Department of Justice and other federal agencies to detail how often they use surveillance tools that capture the email addresses contacted, phone numbers called and websites visited by a person.
Such tools are known as pen register and trace-and-track technology, and while the government believes they're critical for law enforcement, privacy advocates are concerned about the lack of transparency on how often the searches are used.
Paul M. Schwartz, a law professor and director of the Berkeley Center for Law and Technology, said the use of pen registers and trap-and-trace technology is likely up because the public is spending more time on smartphones and the Internet. It's not like the old days when an individual had a phone at their office and home, not on their persons at all times, he said.The data available to agencies is much broader than when investigators tracked phone calls to and from a single line, he said. "It's not surprising they're going to make use of it," he said.
"We're online more. We're engaged in telecommunication many, many more hours a day," he said.

Border Bill Still Stuck in House
WASHINGTON, DC (CBS 2/FOX 28) -- The fight over border security here in the US continues today as house lawmakers considered a slightly revamped piece of immigration legislation.
House Republicans pulled the measure yesterday delaying a planned recess.
The new GOP proposal adds $35 million for national guard soldiers at the Southwest border.
Last night, the Senate rejected a much larger emergency funding measure and members are already leaving town for five weeks.
So even if the action in the House passes, nothing will make it to the President's desk anytime soon.

PCMark Vantage - Hard Disk Tests
Version and / or Patch Used: 1.0.0
Developer Homepage: http://www.futuremark.com
Product Homepage: http://www.futuremark.com/benchmarks/pcmark-vantage/
Buy It Here
PCMark Vantage is the first objective hardware performance benchmark for PCs running 32 and 64 bit versions of Microsoft Windows Vista. PCMark Vantage is perfectly suited for benchmarking any type of Microsoft Windows Vista PC from multimedia home entertainment systems and laptops to dedicated workstations and high-end gaming rigs. Regardless of whether the benchmarker is an artist or an IT Professional, PCMark Vantage shows the user where their system soars or falls flat, and how to get the most performance possible out of their hardware. PCMark Vantage is easy enough for even the most casual enthusiast to use yet supports in-depth, professional industry grade testing.
FutureMark has developed a good set of hard disk tests for their PCMark Vantage Suite. Windows users can count on Vantage to show them how a drive will perform in normal day to day usage scenarios. For most users these are the tests that matter since many of the old hat ways to measure performance have become ineffective to measure true Windows performance.
HDD1 - Windows Defender
HDD2 - Gaming
HDD3 - Windows Photo Gallery
HDD4 - Vista Startup
HDD5 - Windows Movie Maker
HDD6 - Windows Media Center
HDD7 - Windows Media Player
HDD8 - Application Loading
For most users these tests accurately show how a drive performs in their Windows system. This is also the tests where we made the determination to recommend the Vertex 2 over the C300 in 100 to 128GB capacities. If you were worried about losing 28GB of space by following what was previously said, then that problem has now been remedied with the new Vertex 2 E 120GB SSD. The performance between the two drives couldn't be any closer.

Are sports different today from when you were a kid? Danny Bernstein thinks so. Bernstein, who lives in Scarsdale with his wife, a pediatrician in Mount Vernon, and their two children, ages 11 and 8, recently left his family's three-generation sleepwear business to found Backyard Sports, a White Plains-based athletic program for kids 4-14. His intention is "to change the dynamic in the culture of sports, and to bring it back to its roots."
Based on the premise that our culture is more competitive and our pace of life much faster, Backyard Sports aims to recreate the positive sports atmosphere Bernstein enjoyed in his own youth, and to shift focus back to the joy of the experience. "I took a leap of faith," he explains. While coaching and attending his own children's sporting events over the past eight years, Bernstein noticed a trend. "I heard the parents and coaches talking, but not the kids," he says, adding that kids have become "participants in adult controlled programs." Backyard Sports aims at giving the "power of play" back to kids. Through eight-week sessions of basketball in the fall and soccer in the winter — the off-seasons for each sport — Bernstein and his staff focus on the emotional development of the child athlete in addition to teaching the kids sports skills. They create ways for all children to experience success. For example, in one basketball drill, kids can choose to shoot a basketball at a six-foot, eight-foot, or 10-foot basket. Bernstein reports that kids go to the basket where they feel most comfortable; those seeking a challenge will try to 10-foot basket. "In this exercise, everybody is succeeding," he maintains. Coaches help to change children's definitions of success. Instead of just getting a goal or a basket, kids gain points for learning proper skills. If a player communicates with her teammate, for instance, or sets a screen in basketball, she gains a point. At the end of the game, it is not just about the score, but about the points the kids make. "They know the correct way to play because they are rewarded for it," Bernstein says. Backyard Sports creates an environment where players can gain confidence, which in turn, Bernstein believes, leads to improved play. Last fall, on Friday afternoons, the coaches created a kids-only pick-up basketball game (with coach supervision), to give the young players the opportunity to grow by playing and communicating with one another without the direction or interference of adults. For younger children, there are clinics and instruction with age-appropriate game play; equipment is often modified to teach skills. For fourth-graders and older, clinics and instruction are followed by coached games with referees. Bernstein has been an athlete throughout his life, and still plays soccer on Saturday mornings. As a freshman at Amherst College, although he was "too short and not good enough to play" on the soccer team, he was not cut by the coaches. This (and a six-inch growth spurt) led to a great opportunity, and by his senior year, he was the captain of the varsity team. Bernstein believes that today, cutting takes place at much younger ages, and as a result, kids' sports teams have become more stratified than classrooms. Like Bernstein, the coaches at Backyard Sports are well experienced and typically, the lead coaches are teachers with their advanced education degrees. "Their responsibility is to plant seeds for the future," says Bernstein, who is currently working towards his Master's in physical education at Enrollment has nearly doubled since the program's inception and now boasts 110 kids who range in ability from beginner on up. They began playing at SUNY Purchase and have spread to fields in Mt. Vernon and New Rochelle. In the future, Bernstein hopes to expand to New Jersey, Connecticut, and Long Island. This spring, he plans to introduce a program for children with special needs, and down the line, he hopes to add baseball to his roster. "We build a love of the game that they will have for the rest of their lives," he says. Prices range from $375-$450 per 8-week session.

LITTLE ROCK – Lt. Governor Mark A. Darr has been elected to serve as the Southern Regional Chair of the National Lieutenant Governors Association (NLGA) Executive Committee. "The lieutenant governor was nominated to this position by a bi-partisan group of his peers," said NLGA Executive Director Julia Hurst. "His unanimous election among officials of both parties from every region of the country speaks to the high regard he is held in among his peers." The election took place during the NLGA Annual Meeting in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
"I am very honored and gratified that the NLGA chose to reappoint me to their executive committee," Darr said. "We have an excellent group of lieutenant governors across the country and I am privileged to serve with them."
The committee meets approximately three times a year and is responsible for charting the course of policy issues and national impact to be pursued by the nation's second-highest state and territorial officeholders. In addition to its specific duties, the committee will also address issues of mutual concern to all members.
The NLGA is a professional association enabling policy discussion and progress at the state level and which provides research and best practices exchange to the officeholders first in line of succession to governor in all 50 states and the U.S. territories.

Here is a quick look at what is going on with the kitchen...
New door because the old one was hung too low and wouldn't open all the way (also, it was ugly):Start of the new floor. The hanging electrical boxes are from the wall that was torn down:
View from the dining room (you will notice the collection of Miller Lite cans, renovating is beer work):
New electrical and insulation:And, drywall is almost up (no picture yet). But, the drywall is green and helped to solidify my paint color choice for the kitchen, BM Jalapeno Green. It's going to look so awesome with the black and white kitchen.

Comments about Urdu Phase 1, Units 1-30:
I have learned more through this method than Rosetta Stone. People say Rosetta Stone is the number one way to learn a foreign language through immersion. I am a private tutor and TEFL certified instructor and I disagree STRONGLY. Pimsleur is the best method so far that I have EVER encountered. I have already recommended this method on Facebook, blogs, and to all my friends.

I believe I am first and foremost an artist. I believe that art is not something I do for a living, but rather, something I am living to do. I believe I'm still searching for my true niche in life, a higher meaning, but I'm discovering that maybe that is all part of being alive! I am passionate, compassionate, generally positive, idealistic, introspective, intuitive and a dreamer, all of which keeps me centered and balanced. I live life with conviction, not doing anything halfway. I try to stay enlightened and informed, because the worst thing I can possibly imagine is being closed minded and naively ignorant.

Maple sap will generally flow during any rise in temperature above freezing. However, a very rapid rise in temperature (from 25°F to 45°F) will enhance the sap flow considerably. To learn more about the production of maple syrup, click here.

Anti-Aging Fill In Care
Sensitive skin is more prone to marked redness. With aging, this redness accentuates uneven complexion and adds to wrinkles and loss of firmness. Building on this expertise, La Roche-Posay laboratories have developed a formula for sensitive skin highly concentrated in Vitamin C, a recognized reference in anti-aging for its efficacy to even-out complexion, help reduce the look of deep wrinkles and help reinforce skin's support structure. This intensive action within the formula is enhanced due to a combination of: Mannose a replenishing sugar known to fade out irregularities by optimizing the interaction of light with the skin on application; Hyaluronic acid to smooth the skin immediately. This formula also contains skin repairing Madecassoside and Neurosensine, a peptide that helps slow down fiber degradation. Its ultra-rich and enveloping texture, with re-plumping benefits, leaves a silky and non-greasy finish. Excellent make-up base. The skin's firmness is improved, fine lines look faded and deep wrinkles reduced. The complexion is more even and marked redness is visibly diminished. Immediately, the skin looks replenished. Day after day, skin feels softer, more supple and looks more radiant.
Made in France
Morning and/or night on the face and neck. Tolerance tested on sensitive skin. After each use, wipe tube's opening thoroughly before resealing.
©Lierac Paris
Particularly active, Vitamin C amy react when in contact with air. In this case it may turn yellow, which is a sign of its anti-oxidizing hyper-activity. This does not impair its tolerance or its efficacy since it has the ability to regenerate when in contact with the skin.
Avoid immediate contact with fabrics upon application.

Americans deserve open, honest, accountable government.
We're working to deliver it.
Tired of dysfunctional government? We don't blame you. It's easy to get discouraged by special interest politics and partisan gridlock. But don't let your discouragement become apathy.
We know how to fix our democracy. It starts with putting an end to partisan redistricting, limiting the undue influence of money in elections, encouraging broad voter participation, and ensuring diverse, accessible, and accountable media. This is how we fix our democracy, and this is exactly what Common Cause Massachusetts wants to work with you to achieve.
Join us in saying "No!" to our gerrymander rigged, big money political system, and "Yes!" to open, honest, and accountable democracy.
Common Cause works on the following issues in Massachusetts.
Common Cause Massachusetts Candidate Questionnaire - responses to our questionnaire for 2014. Learn More ›
The 2012 campaign season featured an array of often misleading -- and sometimes downright false -- television ads, often underwritten by shadowy SuperPACs or non-profit organizations, and so far Congress has done nothing to prevent the same thing from happening in the future. Learn More ›
Our public records law is broken. Journalists, concerned citizens, and others with a need "and right" to know how our government is working often can't get information. Executive branch and municipal records are supposed to be public unless specifically exempt, but they have become functionally inaccessible due to excessive cost, technological barriers, and administrative obstruction or delay.

Maria got her start in B-movies, often playing the part of the beautiful, terrorized victim, but she has also played the seductress ("Saturday Night Special"), the action hero ("Stripped for Action"), the dead girlfriend ("Mind Games") and the unhinged girlfriend ("Perfect Fit"). She has also had parts in several family films, including "Casper Meets Wendy," "The Perfect Holiday" and "Beethoven's Big Break." Maria's co-stars have included Queen Latifa, Terrence Howard, Martin Sheen, Charlie Sheen, Michael York, Chris O'Donnel, Drew Carey, Amy Brenneman, Faith Ford, Tyne Daly, Scott Bakula, Robin Givens, Tim Curry and Daryl Hannah.
When I started this fan site, I never imagined that I would ever hear from Maria Ford herself, let alone her photographers, directors and close friends! Yet somehow over the years I have become a part of her life through this web site that I started because there was just something about Maria that made her more than just another pretty, sexy actress. To every role she plays, she brings a sweet quality that must come from inside. Until recently I had a guestbook that had been signed by fans from all over the world (Jakarta, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, and Australia, to name just a few), and every message was warm and supportive.
Unfortunately, it takes very little to damage a person's career. Maria has been hurt by incorrect user-submitted information on the Internet Movie Date Base web site regarding her birth year/place. I hope potential directors reading this will look at how much Maria has to offer and not be influenced by sites like IMDB that aren't always reliable.
By the way, there is a highly suspect "Celebrity Deathwatch" site I only just heard about which has completely fabricated information about Maria Ford. Please ignore it, as it is entirely inaccurate!

2013 and Earlier - Toyota Camry Prices Paid and Buying Experience
rogersmith3 Posts: 1
hellofriend Posts: 3Toyota offers 0% APR incentive for new 2012 Camry Hybrid for 5 years. I want to buy one but would like to hear around what deal each one got for out of door price. Any tips in negotiating price?
Any buying information and experience in DC, Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina areas are highly appreciated. -
savedollars Posts: 3Bryan Easler Toyota Hendersonville, NC has best prices. If you live in NC and hendersonville is drivable, checkout their prices. I bought 2012 camry LE with 0% interest 48 months finance for 21700 OTD in 1st week of March 2012. I did not haggle much. I should have take their quote and got someone in charlotte to match and beat for say 400 dollars, I would have had a better offer.
Make sure you get everything in email, internet print outs and drive there. But be prepared...usually the "car you have seen on internet has just been sold or someone put cash down etc..." The thing is dealers want to make money and they will sell to someone who is willing to buy at a higher price. -

islover Posts: 32hi forum
looking at a 2013 toyota camry SE - with these options:
moonroof package $ 814 invoice - $ 915 MSRP
display audio with entune $ 935 invoice - $1050 MSRP
power driver seat $ 392 invoice - $ 440 MSRP
door cups/guards/door film $ 131 invoice - $ 199 MSRP
legal window tint for FL $ ? - $ 399 MSRP
floor mats $ 180 invoice - $ 299 MSRP
iphone cable $ ? - $ 20 MSRP
I have gotten these prices from 2 local dealers so far - both in writing:
$24200 + tax + tag (already including dealer fee & $1000 dealer cash incentive)
$23500 + tax + tag (already including dealer fee & $1000 dealer cash incentive)
Does anyone think either one of these is a great deal?
I'm calculating the invoice price with these options at: $21,294 (base SE) + options ($2871)
(had to calculate tint & iphone cable at MSRP pricing) + destination fee (south FL) $795 = $24960
is this correct?
i'm now not sure...
Someone please tell me what type of deal they got in the Southeast Florida area for a 2013 Camry SE with these options - ready to buy ASAP
Thanks in advance -
voicemailking Posts: 78In South Florida, I just leased a 2013 Camry SE. The options are 8 ay poer seats, Navigation and Entune System. It is 4 cylinder. I did not want a sunroof. The car stickered for $26,820. They based the lease on 22,098. The terms are 36 months, 15,00 miles. The payment set up was $269.00 per tax which came out to $185.14 per month. Gave $500.00 at signing for tags and 1st payment. In essence i have 35 payments left. Do you think it was a decent deal??? I did it thru Carwoo, and only e-mail, nothing changed and no hassles when I went in and signed.
islover Posts: 32Yes, I think it's a great deal based on my calculations!
Did they include the $1000 dealer cash back on the deal to get that cap cost for your lease? (i think they did-great price)
The sunroof only adds $814 invoice price - so even with your price of $22098 + 814 = $22912 - which is hundreds cheaper than the lowest quote i've received by local internet departments so far of $23324
Did they include options on your car like legal window tint for FL? Door protection package (film, cups,edging)? Iphone cable? (all the dealers i've contacted have these options already on car - adds $399+$199+$20 - maybe that is the difference in the price you got and what i am receiving as a quote - not sure)
would you please disclose which dealer you received this deal at? if you don't want to list it publicly - you can send me a private message - i would be very interested in going there
i did put in a request on car woo 2 days ago - but unfortunately did not receive any offers yet - i am not sure why
thanks for your reply - and i hope you enjoy your new camry! -

pbshah Posts: 3Need some advice. Recently moved to TX and was shopping for a Camry SE in Austin area. Looking for the NAV package, the dealer had a car with the following options: NAV, MATS, Bumper protector, side molding and power seat.
The OTD is $26514 for 0% for 60 months. Is the a fair price? -
kcaj32 Posts: 5Help me out here guys.
I'm getting a new 2013 Camry LE for 19,300 + TTL (specific car, not too fond of its white color)
I'm also getting a Toyota Certified 2012 Camry LE (30K miles, prev rental) for $16,500 + TTL (this one is the color I like)
Should I go for the new one or certified used?
Used is $3,000 less and comes with an additional 1yr/12K miles bumper to bumper warranty + 7yr/100K miles power-train warranty.
New is of a color I don't like but comes with that satisfaction of owning a new car + the new car smell
What do you all think? -
voicemailking Posts: 78
pbshah Posts: 3What a coincidence! I ended up at Champion Toyota at South Austin yesterday. I got the car I wanted at $22800 OTD @ 1.99% APR. I felt it was a good deal. Includes mats, nav+back up camera, led lamps and tint at that price.
The sticker price of the previous car was approximately 27k. Thank you ziyulu for the dealership suggestion.

Uncle VanyaScenes from Country Life in Four ActsA TragicomedyFirst published in 1897. First performed in 1899 in Moscow in a production by the Moscow Art Theatre, under the direction of Konstantin Stanislavski.This play portrays the visit of an elderly professor and his glamorous, much younger second wife, Yeléna, to the rural estate that supports their urban lifestyle. Two friends, Vanya, brother of the Professor's late first wife, who has long managed the estate, and Astrov, the local Doctor, both fall under Yelena's spell, while bemoaning the ennui of their provincial existence. Sonya, the Professor's daughter by his first wife, who has worked with Vanya to keep the estate going, meanwhile suffers from the awareness of her own lack of beauty and from her unrequited feelings for Dr. Astrov. Matters are brought to a crisis when the Professor announces his intention to sell the estate, Vanya and Sonya's home and raison d'être, with a view to investing the proceeds to achieve a higher income for himself and his wife.

This content might also be great for the NYT's LENS multimedia jornalism blog.
I find it outrageous that you think paying to report on something for The New York Times is a great idea. Your story is fantastic, but asking people to pay for you to go, so The Times can have the story later (of course this isn't guaranteed), sucks. They get free material, and someone else has to take the risks and handle the costs. If they agree to publish the piece are you being paid? And if so, are you reimbursing those who paid for your trip? And forgive me, but are you even a photographer?
This is David Cohn - the director of Spot.Us.
The money we are raising is just for travel. That is a real and high expense for this story (it is in the middle of the ocean) - so that is where ALL the money is going. The reporter here isn't going to pocket it.
Perhaps in the past the Times could have shilled out 10k for travel expenses on a single story. But I think it is understandable that they can't do that right now.Yes - if they accept the piece the reporter stands to get paid for editorial - but that isn't enough to cover travel expenses.
If you notice the price of the trip is 10k and we are just trying to raise 6k as of this comment. So the reporter is still in the hole 4k - just to report on something she is passionate about. I think it takes a very mean spirited attitude to attack somebody for that. Rather I'd like to focus on folks who would like to help us build something up rather than tear it down.
Then again - everything is easier to say (even accusations of somebody's photographic skills who you don't know) when you are annonymous.
Sad to see the anonymous sniping. It's a great story and the potential for exposure in NYT is exciting. I plan to contribute but am confused about a couple of things -- some clarification might help everyone:
(1) Will the final material be exclusive to the Times or will other publications be able to pick it up (via CC licensing or some other approach), as is often the case at Spot.us (if I'm not mistaken)?
(2) I couldn't tell from the above ("it will just be enough to keep myself and the other crewmembers at sea for nearly one month") whether the $10K is simply going to pay the reporter's expenses or is also helping fund the whole trip. I assume the former but it might help to explain. Thanks!
Funny how the most harsh opinions come from the anonymous people.
Great idea. Will promote it a much as I can.
Great questions, Scott. Some material, (e.g. one article and photos) may be exclusive to the Times, but I will be able to produce some content for other publications. David Cohn has expressed interest in a de-brief session when I get back, perhaps a radio interview or the publication of photos that were not run in the Times.
As for the $10,000, that just goes to pay my way. I won't be funding any of the other crew members. Great to hear from you, anything else, feel free to throw it my way!
- Lindsey/'The GarbageGirl'
This heartbreaking and informative three-part documentary about the Pacific Gyre was made by the crew at VBS.tv (now part of Viacom) last year.
Their story features an onboard romance, but it also has lots to tell us about how we have polluted the oceans around us. I hope your trip will break some new ground because this was extremely well produced.
Ooh I clicked on the donate talent button as I wanted to offer to help if I can with background info. I remember there's an author over here in the Netherlands who wrote extensively on the Garbage Patch, if it helps at all I could go find her, interview her, etc.. been meaning to do it for my own work anyway. Or beyond that, if there's something specific I can do from over here to help.
Hi Mark,
Glad to hear you want to help out. That sounds fantastic. Doing an interview with the garbage expert in the Netherlands would be really interesting, for me and for Spot.us readers too. I'll approve your status to help report--you're in!
Lots of great stuff you wrote about. Keep up the good work, I'm sure you can find a job working for treehugger or something like that. fiestamovement.com/agents/view/58
you don't need to blog daily. And if you really feel you do, please look into amateur radio kinds of things for 2-meter packet radio or something like that, in cooperation with someone in CA who will be the other end of essentially a modem link.
Clark Hoyt, July 18: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/19/opinion/19pubed.html
this is something that really needs more reporting on and im sure you will report the heck out of it!
Best Of Luck
Add Video
Best of luck - would be excellent to raise awareness further of this problem. Some great photos and video would help this.
Too bad that more than 50 years after Thor Heyerdahl came back and reported we have poluted the oceans, that we are still having to chase this issue. But change is slow. So, good luck and thank you for your passion about the subject.
Dear Lindsey:
This is an extremely important topic which must be given more air time than it has had to date. As other folks have said above, video footage and photographs are critical to raising awareness about this mess we have created. FYI, Lindblad Expeditions (now affiliated with National Geographic) - a wonderful conservation and ecotourism expedition company - may be interested in helping in some way...
I hope you are able to interest The New York Times and others...NPR, Channel 13 (Nature, etc)., as this story needs to be shared with as many outlets as you can.
Best of luck. I will donate. Debra
Hello Lindsey,
I would like to help and will donate, but have an thought on leveraging this into a another media idea/event. Wondering if I could sponsor you to do something while you're there. I've been trying to get contact info for you, so please call and we can discuss. Tel # is 650-520-6664.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
How is the point of this different from what the Project Kaisei team is trying to do this summer? See http://www.projectkaisei.org/
They're also highlighting the Garbage Patch by sailing there and filming it. They seem already set up to do a documentary, blog, etc. and have sponsors in hand.
Hi Susan,
Great question! I actually spoke to Project Kaisei yesterday. First, I want to say that I think what they're doing is phenomenal. They're assembling an awesome 25 person crew that I'm sure will bring much needed attention to this issue. I think more is more when it comes to covering the garbage patch, and at this point there can never be too much coverage.
What they're interested in is determining how to clean up the garbage patch. What Captain Moore and his team are interested in is how we're affected when we eat fish that are consuming toxic plastic chemicals. Also, this is the tenth anniversary voyage for Moore so his team will be comparing plastic-to-plankton ratios from ten years ago. I guess a major difference is also that the New York Times is interested in publishing my story, whereas Project Kaisei doesn't have a journalist on the boat and I will be on the boat with Captain Moore who first discovered the garbage patch.
Hope this helps!
Hi. Good luck with this project. I hope you get a chance to talk to Curtis Ebbesmeyer and include his research in your story.
What happens when we eat fish with stomachs full of trash? Fish are not that stupid, heck ever try to fish with a lure? Its not that easy to get fish to bite plastic when you want them to. You also don't eat the guts, more often you'll find fishing hooks or lines attached to a fish rather than garbage.
So now this garbage patch is twice the size of Texas? Thats bullshit. If it was twice the size of my state then it should be viewable on Google Earth or we would have some satellite photos of it.
You should check out the post Lindsey did on five frequently asked questions about the garbage patch. One of them is "why can't I see the patch from Google Earth?"
It is real and that there are a lot of misconceptions about it is why we need as much coverage as possible.
You know even if people try to be more careful with their trash you still have hurricanes that destroy entire cities and deposit their contents into the water. Many plastics actually don't last as long as you think they would in the harsh salt water and constant UV rays. Check out this article on plastic art not lasting forever. http://www.slate.com/id/2221963/
Also, I had a clean plastic bait bucket that I put into the water a month ago. I just pulled it up and took a photo, you can see organic matter growing on it, and also several tiny crabs were living on it when I got it out. http://yfrog.com/bhmonthinbrackishwaterj
There is also some discussion about oil rigs and the habitat the provide for fish. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/11808271/ I have found some of the best fishing near rigs, so at the very least they attract fish to the area. What would be funny is if this garbage patch actually turned into a huge floating artificial reef.
I read about your idea in the New York Times. Great Idea! May I add a follow-on idea for your enterprising project. ...
When I read about Charles Moore's discovery in Wikipedia, I was frustrated that the Kermit Roosevelt Seamount, which is near the center of the coordinates specified in the article, is the only feature visible to me on Google Earth, but it is 4300 meters below the surface of the ocean, and not visible as I fly my computer above the earth.
Sooo, .... "Why not sell video of your trip to Google Earth?" ....???...
That way, you can fund the entire trip from video for Google. Or maybe non-exclusive rights to the video, so you still have pictures to sell to the New York Times.
And, I would then be able to fly over the Pacific using Google Earth to view the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.

I just found this website and I must confess that it is truly innovative. I think this story is important and I hope it brings greater visibility to the environmental crisis. I would like to say have fun, but this garbage patch is really depressing.
above I put my name in the title line and now I just did a facepalm. Like I said I'm new to this site, good luck!
Hey Lindsey: Fascinating project!! I hope this will get picked up by the NYT and perhaps others. That garbage patch is a chilling demonstration of what is referred to in economics as the tragedy of the commons, a term coined by the late Garrett Hardin (a professor at UCSB) to describe the devastation which often follows overuse/abuse of a commonly owned asset. The Pacific Ocean is analagous to the Commons (communally owned pastures) of old England, which were overgrazed and abused to devastation because no one person or group owned the asset with the incentive to protect it for future use and enjoyment. An old concept, perhaps first voiced by Aristotle: "What is common to the greatest number has the least care bestowed upon it." Perhaps your reporting can begin to change that dynamic.

We are still raising money for Lindsey on our Facebook Cause to try and get to her 10k goal so that she won't take on any debt to work on this article.
Today we recieved a $500 donation through the mail from a Phylis Ooi. We'd like to publicly thank her and keep on pushing forward!!!!
1. What % of the plastic/trash in the ocean could we avoid making in the first place using current, off-the-shelf alternatives, biodegradable material and simple practices (BYO bag, bottle, fork, etc). Based on the data on the stuff that washes up on the beaches (annual ICC reports) that % is pretty high.
2. What really stands in the way of generating the political and personal will to make that shift?
Hope the trip is great! And that the article creates waves.

Folks: Lindsey has left for Hawaii where she will be getting training in how to be one of the few crew members aboard the ship. From there - she sails to the pacific garbage patch.
She will be sending updates to spot.us and her personal blog. So keep your eye out for that (middle column has our blog posts).
Meanwhile: We raised a whopping $9,000 towards her 10,000 travel expesnes!
That is amazing!
Thanks to everyone who donated. When she comes back - we hop to "make a splash."
I am an environmentalist. I do believe we pollute the oceans. I do not believe there is some kind of island of garbage in the pacific. This is science people, if you are going to make a claim like this, you need to have evidence. What is the density and composition of this supposed garbage? Sounds like an excuse to float around on a sail boat in the pacific to me.
"This is science people"
Exactly and this is a science expedition. Check the journals before commenting.

We like the dimmers, but several rooms have light-switches at multiple locations. It appears, Lutron are currently the only ones, offering "true multi-location dimming" — where the light can be dimmed up or down from any of the locations, rather than only from one. However, it seems, Lutron's minimum wattage is 40W. We are using the 12W LED lights, which can be dimmed down to 25% (or 3W). Am I right suspecting, Lutron will not be able to dim that low, unless there are 13 such lamps on the circuit? In fact, if I'm reading this right, it will not even work at all, unless there are 4 such lamps on each circuit... Or am I misinterpreting something? Thanks! Yours,
doofus |
Follow-Up Postings:
Which model Lutron dimmer are you investigating? |
Which model Lutron dimmer are you investigating? Oh, I don't really care, which one — whatever works... Apparently, the MAELV line is what I need for the "master" dimmer (the one, that, actually, controls the light). It is named "low-voltage" (ELV stands for Electronic Low Voltage) which is a misnomer: it should read "low-wattage". Apparently, MAELV's minimum load requirement is only 10Watt (not 40 as with the rest of of Lutron's Maestros) and so it can deal with the small number LED fixtures. It is expensive, though. Unfortunately, Lutron would not state, that it will work with CREE's CR6C lights, although a nearly-identical Cooper/Halo ML706830 downlight is listed as compatible with MAELV-600 (and some others). The Halo's color temperature is only 3000K, and my most significant other wants CREE's 3500K (or even more)... Going from the other direction, CREE's own compatibility list doesn't mention Lutron at all, even if CREE people on the phone are quite adamant, that it will work just fine. Everyone you speak to, points out, that the state of the LED-lighting industry is currently still in a flux and the only way to ensure compatibility is for manufacturers (or even consumers!) to test it for themselves... Crazy, is not it? doofus |

Maybe you should wait a bit on the LED lamps for the technology to stablize before migrating. At $80+ a pop, it seems it would take quite a while to reach break even. Regular incandescent dimmers are cheap enough to toss them (or sell them on eBay) after you're through with them. I looked briefly at Luton's site and it seems you need a special module for LEDs. Maybe not. |
funny I came to this forum with a somewhat related question... Does anybody make a "smart dimmer" that can detect when the load is not a standard dimmer load (i.e., incandescent bulbs) and give up dimming them? I have a ceiling fan that was put on a dimmer - probably a bad idea period. I never use the fan. With incads. bulbs, the dimmer worked of course. I've converted to CFLs. With the dimmer set at max, they worked reliably. I recently had a new heat pump put in and it seems to be kicking back some harmonic noise or DC into the house lines. (yeah I should probably have that checked out...) Basically the CFLs go berserk at the "full" dial position when the AC/HP runs. They start flashing and making a high pitch humming sound. I have to adjust them down to the 1/2 position and they are steady again. When the HP turns off, the 1/2 position makes them go crazy! It's a no-win situation LOL. The obvious solution is to replace with a switch...yes...I know and will probably do that...I just wonder if there's some kind of fuzzy-logic controlled, fault-detecting dimmer for these situations. |

We have Leviton Acenti master and remote dimmers in many locations so I would not say Lutron is the only one that does this. The kitchen lights are a 5-way circuit with 4" magnetic low voltage MR-16 Halogens which can be dimmed down to the point they are barely on. We are using 3500K bulbs in the dining room and family room and 4100K bulbs in the kitchen, which makes everything nice and sparkly. I'm not about to change to LEDs just to save a few watts of power since the cost of the magnetic LV lights and dimmers was considerable. Our lights are generally dimmed most of the time anyway unless we are working in the kitchen, so the power use is minimal. I doubt we'd save that much. I certainly did NOT notice any savings going to CFL bulbs in other locations. I hope the LEDs work out for you as they will probably be forced down our throats eventually. |

Police in Centre County are investigating after animals were found living in deplorable conditions inside of a house.
Spring Township police said they were notified of the situation Tuesday morning at the home in the 100 block of Harrison Road in Pleasant Gap.

Police said four dogs and two cats were found in the home that was filled with feces and trash.
The animals were taken to a veterinarian clinic to be cleaned and checked. Investigators are still determining how injured or sick the animals are.

15 Makin to Calwell
Letter CANBERRA, 9 July 1946
One of the main questions which will arise at the forthcoming Meeting of U.N.R.R.A. Council in Geneva opening on 6th August, 1946, will be that of displaced persons. It seems desirable therefore that you should nominate a representative from your Department to attend the Meeting, and I should be glad if you would give this matter careful consideration.
All the documents concerning the activities of U.N.R.R.A. in regard to displaced persons have been forwarded to your Department as received from time to time. The problem which will be presented to the Council Meeting will be that of dealing with the hard core of the 6-700,000 European refugees who will never return to their native lands, in face of the termination of U.N.R.R.A.'s activities.
I attach a letter just received from Mr. La Guardia, Deputy Director of U.N.R.R.A. on the subject, together with notes of an interview with Commander Jackson, the Senior Deputy Director- General, during his recent flying visit to Canberra. I should be glad if you would consider what reply might be given to Mr. La Guardia and advise me accordingly.
It would seem that the Australian Government will need to decide what policy to adopt when the proposition is advanced that we should absorb a proportionate share of displaced persons, provided other countries do the same. When you have considered the matter, it would seem appropriate that we should make a joint submission to Cabinet on the subject, so that our representatives at the U.N.R.R.A. Council Meeting, and at subsequent International Meetings on the subject, may be suitably instructed.
Commander Jackson also stated, incidentally, that agents from certain other countries, especially South American, were already active among displaced persons with a view to selecting the most suitable immigrants for their purposes, in anticipation of the resettlement of the remaining displaced persons in new countries.
Whatever plans are adopted for dealing with displaced persons, however, implementation of those plans will take some time.
U.N.R.R.A. is scheduled to cease operations in Europe on 31st December, 1946, and in the Far East on 31st March, 1947. Some organisation for carrying out displaced persons operations will, however, be required beyond those dates.
The Economic and Social Council has recommended the establishment of a displaced persons organisation to commence operations on 1st January, 1947. [1] It may not be possible, however, to have this organisation functioning effectively by the proposed date, and the matter will be further discussed at the meeting of the United Nations General Assembly to be held in September next.
Australia has given support to the formation of a displaced persons organisation which would operate as a subsidiary organ of the United Nations or, failing that, which would operate as a specialised agency linked as closely as possible with the Economic and Social Council.
As pointed out above, it may not be possible to establish an effective organisation before the expiration of U.N.R.R.A.'s present term, and the forthcoming U.N.R.R.A. Council Meeting will, therefore, consider the question of extending the period of U.N.R.R.A.'s responsibilities in the displaced persons field. If you are agreeable, I would suggest that our delegates to this Meeting should support extension of U.N.R.R.A.'s displaced persons responsibilities until such time as an effective displaced persons organisation is established.
It would be appreciated if you would inform me fully of your views on the questions raised above at the earliest possible date. [2]
