Section 13 of theHazardous Products Act (HPA) places a legal requirement on the Canadian supplier of aWHMIS controlled product "intended for use in a work place in Canada" to transmit aMSDS disclosing prescribed information as a condition of sale. Section 14 of theHPA places a legal requirement on the Canadian importer of a controlled product to obtain or prepare aMSDS as a condition of importation. Section 23 of theControlled Products Regulations (CPR) sets out the requirements for an imported controlled product that is to be labelled or repackaged in Canada. The Canadian importer who imports a controlled product in accordance with subsection 23(1) of theCPR must obtain or prepare aMSDS before the controlled product is used or sold in Canada.
A product, material or substance is a controlled product if it falls within any of the hazard criteria specified in Part IV of theCPR. A controlled product may be a "pure" substance, a tested mixture or an untested mixture. Section 33 of theCPR sets out the procedures for a supplier to establish whether or not a substance is a controlled product and does not apply to the determination of the information that must be disclosed on theMSDS.
Although the classification criteria specified in Part IV of theCPR may provide a useful guideline for certainMSDS information, it is section 12 and Schedule I to theCPR which set out what information must be disclosed on aMSDS. Subject to the trade secret provision under theHazardous Materials Information Review Act, paragraph 13(a) of theHPA sets out what ingredients are subject to disclosure on theMSDS and section 4 of theCPR specifies the concentration above which those ingredients must be disclosed.
For information on employer obligations, please refer to the "Employer Requirements" page; (page under construction).
Links are provided on the "Publications" page under "Acts and Regulations"
As section 13 of theHPA requires a positive action by the transmitter to convey the transmitted document to the recipient, making aMSDS available on the Internet without ensuring that the purchaser is able to access this information does not absolve a supplier of the legal requirement to "transmit" aMSDS as a condition of sale. The use of the Internet to transmit anMSDS would be acceptable if the supplier is able to demonstrate the following:
Satisfaction, on the part of the supplier, may be provided through written confirmation, provided to the supplier from the purchaser, specifying that the above conditions have been met.
The categories of products which are not subject to the supplierMSDS and label requirements of theHPA and specified in section 12 of this Act. Certain exemptions and other allowances forMSDSs for products which are subject to theHPA are set out in theCPR as follows:
Special Provision | as it relates to .... | section ofCPR |
genericMSDSs | products with similar composition | 7 |
ingredient disclosure | complex mixtures | 5 |
ingredient disclosure | concentration cut-off | 4 |
ingredient disclosure | concentration ranges | 11 |
ingredient disclosure | flavours & fragrances | 5.1 |
laboratory samples | quantity, ingredient disclosure | 9 |
laboratory supply house | products originating from a "supply house" intended for lab use | 10 |
same product | multiple sale of | 6(a) |
same product | subsequent sales of | 6(b) |
trade secret | sale to employer who has filed a claim for | 8 |
trade secret | sale by secondary supplier | 8.2 |
trade secret | substitute information | 26, 27 (andHPA 16) |
As specified in subsections 24(1) and 24(2) of theCPR, the Canadian supplier must provide aMSDS in the official language or languages requested by the purchaser or, when no preference is stated, in the language used in the course of the business transaction. Suppliers must have preparedMSDSs in both English and French by the time they begin selling the product in Canada. A request for anMSDS in both languages can be met by having information in both languages on a singleMSDS or twoMSDSs, one in English and one in French.
As set out in Section 12 of and Schedule I to theCPR, Canada had adopted a nine headingMSDS requirement. However, as an administrative policy,MSDSs forWHMIS controlled products which use the ILO,ISO, EC,ANSI or GHS 16 heading format are accepted as meeting compliance requirements ofCPR Section 12, provided that all 16 headings are disclosed (in the sequence recommended by these other standards) and that the required content specified under Schedule I, Column III of theCPR is addressed. Under the ILO heading "Regulatory Information", the following statement should appear: "This product has been classified in accordance with the hazard criteria of theControlled Products Regulations and theMSDS contains all the information required by theControlled Products Regulations." All headings and subheadings which appear on theMSDS must be addressed by disclosing the relevant information or by declaring that the information is not available or not applicable, as appropriate.
Neither theHPA nor theCPR impose a legal requirement to test materials for the purpose ofMSDS disclosure. As a fundamental principle, during the development ofWHMIS, all stakeholders agreed that nothing in the hazard criteria, nor any part ofWHMIS, would require additional toxicological testing. Rather,WHMIS was designed to make the best use of existing toxicological data. There is, however, an implicit requirement to conduct testing to respect theMSDS ingredient disclosure requirements stipulated in Section 13 of theHPA if this information is not known to the supplier/importer of aWHMIS controlled product.
As set out in subsection 29(1) of theCPR, information disclosed onMSDSs and labels must be accurate at the time of sale of the controlled product. As set out in subsection 29(2), suppliers are prohibited from supplyingMSDSs that have aMSDS preparation date exceeding three years (3 X 365 days) prior to the sale or importation of a controlled product. Thus, if a supplier has not changed any information on his/herMSDS for three years, he/she must review that information to ensure that it is still accurate and that there is no new available and applicable information that should be disclosed.
If there is new information, it must be disclosed on theMSDS and, if applicable, the label of the product. Whether or not there is new information, theMSDS must be revised so that the date of preparation reflects the date the information was reviewed.
At present, a supplier is not legally obliged to send the updatedMSDS (and label if applicable) to previous customers in the absence of subsequent sales. TheWHMIS Current Issues Committee (CIC) subsequently agreed, however, that suppliers, other than retail outlets, shall notify all customers who had purchased a controlled product in the previous 12 months of any significant new hazard information concerning the controlled product. The method of providing the new information will be at the discretion of the supplier; while the information may be provided by way of aMSDS, it may also be done by letter. (Refer to the "Administration & Consultation" page for theCIC's terms of reference.)
The IntergovernmentalWHMIS Coordinating Committee (IWCC) has adopted "Guidelines for the Disclosure of Toxicological Information on a Material Safety Data Sheet"; http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/hecs-sesc/whmis/info_bulletin.htm. (Refer to the "Administration & Consultation" page for theIWCC's terms of reference.)
IWCC's recommended guidelines: In conjunction with the recommended "Factors to Consider ..." provided below, the IntergovernmentalWHMIS Coordinating Committee (IWCC) has adopted the following as enforcement policy:
GLOVES: If gloves are recommended because the product is, for example, a dermal irritant which may come in contact with skin during use, theMSDS should specify materials which are resistant to the product. It should also indicate which materials are not resistant. Glove materials may include polyvinyl chloride (PVC), neoprene, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), nitrile (NBR), natural rubber, etc. The use of the term "impermeable or impervious gloves" should be not be used since there are no protective materials that are completely impermeable. Generally, any "chemical resistant" gloves can be used for dry powders. (ref.: OSHA 1910.138).
The best protective material against a specific chemical is one that has a low permeation rate (if any) and a long breakthrough time. Tests are usually conducted using pure substances as opposed to mixtures. Since it is possible for solvents to carry active ingredients through polymeric materials, unless specific test data are available, for mixtures and formulated products, gloves should be selected on the basis of the chemical component with the shortest breakthrough time, (ref.: OSHA 1910.138).
Important local factors which fall within the domain of employers include quantity of product handled, process equipment, ventilation, confined space conditions, contact time, temperature, material grade and humidity.
In addition to manufacturers' data, a general reference for the selection of CPC is the ACGIH 1991Guidelines for the Selection of Chemical Protective Clothing. This guideline includes degradation and permeation test data from manufacturers, vendors and independent labs with recommendations for over 300 chemicals. As no analogous guideline has been published in Canada, many organizations in Canada use the ACGIH guideline as a reference.
Footwear: Where normal footwear is not appropriate, suppliers should specify the material of the footwear, height on the lower leg, nature of tread, etc..
Clothing/other: If appropriate, other types of clothing may also be recommended such as aprons, vests, coveralls, suits, etc., and material type, e.g., neoprene, nylon, etc.
Eye/face:If the product is likely to pose an eye hazard, eye protection should be recommended.CSA Standard Z94.3-M1982 "Industrial Eye and Face Protectors" provides selection information for eye and facewear.
Respirator: A supplier's recommendation for respiratory protection should also be consistent with the "product use" disclosed on theMSDS and should afford a level of protection against overexposure to the chemical or product (i.e., to prevent exceeding regulated exposure limits).
Important local conditions to be considered by the employer include: period of time the respirator is required, chemical concentration, activity level of workers, functional capabilities and limitation of respirators of various types, respirator protection factors, respirator fit, etc..
The Canadian Standards Association (CSA) has published Z94.4-93, Selection, Use and Care of Respirators. This standard has been adopted by the federal government and by most provinces. In general, this standard states criteria that must be considered in the selection of respirators. It also describes the suitability of a particular respiratory protective device for oxygen deficient or immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH) atmospheres.
Canadian and OSHA regulations require the use of an approved respirator. In theU.S., respirators are tested at theNIOSH Testing Laboratory in Morgantown, West Virginia, in accordance with the requirements of 42 CFR Part 84 (previously 30 CFR Part II). Under the new Part 84 (effective July 10, 1995), respirators are now approved solely byNIOSH. Under the old Part II, respirators were jointly approved byNIOSH and the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA).CSA recognizes theNIOSH approvals.
ANIOSH approved air purifying respirator with an organic vapour cartridge or canister may be permissible under certain circumstances where air borne concentrations are expected to exceed exposure limits. Protection provided by air purifying respirators is limited. Use aNIOSH approved positive pressure air supplied respirator if there is any potential for an uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not known, or any other circumstances where air purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection.
This material does not have established exposure limits. Wear aNIOSH approved positive pressure air supplied respirator in situations where there may be potential for airborne exposure.
Wear aNIOSH approved full-facepiece airline respirator in the positive pressure mode with emergency escape provisions.
ANIOSH approved air-purifying respirator with organic vapour/acid gas cartridge(s) required for concentrations up tox mg/m3and an atmosphere supplied respirator if concentrations are higher or unknown.
For most conditions, no respiratory protection should be needed, however, in dusty atmospheres, use aNIOSH approved dust respirator.
Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles) and a face shield.
Nitrile rubber andPVC are not suitable protective materials; Neoprene is recommended.
The following glove(s) materials may provide adequate protection against permeation: butyl rubber, neoprene, natural rubber. Gloves of other chemically resistant materials such as polyvinyl chloride may not provide adequate protection.
Where splashing is possible, full chemically resistant protective clothing (e.g., acid suit) and boots are required.
Neoprene gloves are recommended for prolonged contact with the liquid.
For brief contact, no precautions other than clean body-covering clothing should be needed. When prolonged or frequently repeated contact could occur, use chemical protective clothing made from butyl rubber. Selection of specific items such as gloves, boots, apron, full-body suit, etc. will depend on local operation.
Safety glasses, splash goggles or face shield. Contact lenses should not be worn.
Recommended first aid statements forMSDSs (and labels) have been incorporated into the Health Canada Reference Manual corresponding to Item 9 of Schedule 1 to the [WHMIS]Controlled Products Regulations.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Jasmine!
Facts about Jasmine
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Black (Mostly)
- Age: Adult
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Short
Jasmine's Info...
I am already spayed and up to date with shots.
Jasmine is a former mom of 9 kittens. She took wonderful care of so many kittens and now is seeking a loving and caring home. She is friendly and outgoing and will climb into your lap for attention and petting. She also enjoys sleeping at the foot of the bed along with her foster family. Please visit with Jasmine at the Petsmart store in the District Shopping Center on Saturday and give this wonderful lady a warm and loving home.
Other Pets at Orange County Animal Rescue Coalition
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Jasmine, a Irvine Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Irvine, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Irvine.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Irvine already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Irvine breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Irvine paves the way for another one to be saved.

The Shoemaker Impact Crater Project is located on the southern margin of the Earaheedy Basin about 830km northeast of Perth, Western Australia.
The Shoemaker Meteorite Impact crater was previously known as the Lake Teague Ring Structure but was renamed the Shoemaker impact structure in honour of the late Gene Shoemaker and as a tribute to his and Caroline Shoemaker's work on Australian impact structures. The structure has a diameter of about 30km.
The structure covers the southern part of the Western Proterozoic Earaheedy Basin which overlies the Archaean Yilgarn Craton to the south. Iron formation of the Frere Formation has been mapped on the tenements, and rock chip sampling by Galaxy has returned values up to 58.8%Fe.
Galaxy's main target is high grade hematite iron mineralisation hosted in the Frere Formation. Other targets include base metals such as copper, lead and zinc, and gold, which may have been concentrated by structures and hydrothermal systems related to the impact event.

all about my life...
Submitted by RonPaulforfreedom on Tue, 05/07/2013 - 04:41- Login to post comments
(((((((RonPaulforfreedom)))))) Thank you
First, I want to thank you for not removing your pants.
Second, you have the right to privacy and no need to proove yourself by showing your documents to the world unless you are elected to office. You've shown us more then president Obama. I don't understand why you feel the need to show us such personal things.
Third, It made me very happy to hear you give appreciation to the great people in your great life. You have been blessed with exceptional parents and you PROOVE that LOVE overcomes disabilty. The beauty of you is you are real, and that is because you are so loved.. many people never have that in life.
Forth, I made you my friend. I never made anyone my friend before, and there are many people who I love here, very much.. my baby brother who was a quadplegic just passed away last month, and you remind me of him because he acheived more than many abled bodied people. (If you don't want to be my friend let me know and I will respect your choice because I respect you).
Finally, I think you would make a great speaker for the liberty movement in telling us about what political events affect your disability, because those who are not disabled, or know anyone that is disabled, as I no longer do since my baby brother died, would find it educational. Thank you for the education.
Peace be with you.
Love, The Granger

Well, bless your heart!
I have a nephew who got dealt a very similar hand to you. He was terribly premature, I don't recall how early but he spent his first year in the hospital, racked up over a million dollars in medical bills before his first birthday. He also has cerebral palsy. But he has never spoken, likely never will - he's in his late twenties now. He has learned a few signs, but that is all. He will never make a youtube video, never stand and fight for his own rights, let alone anyone elses. He is still filled with love and joy, but unable to fully express himself or participate in "normal life" at all. I'm sure there are days most of us are a little envious of that kind of ignorant bliss, but I imagine you don't have many days like that... been close enough to know better.
You are a gift, thanks for opening yourself for us.

OCALA, Fla., August 27, 2013 — America stands at the precipice of yet another Middle-Eastern war, this time in Syria.
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has been accused of using chemical weapons against his own people. This is just the latest development in his nation's long-running civil war. Very little is clear about the true nature of this conflict.
SEE RELATED: The U.S. needs to find a smarter solution to the Syria problem
There are three narratives here: Assad is a ruthless dictator who wishes to suppress the interests of freedom fighters; Assad is an embattled leader who is trying to maintain some sense of order in the face of jihadist radicalism; Assad is a ruthless dictator who whishes to suppress jihadist radicals, and no matter who wins, America loses.
For now al-Assad has gained the upper hand in Syria's struggle. A great many of his opponents are members of the Muslim Brotherhood, and if they gain power, then militant Islamic fundamentalism will have scored yet another victory.
Assad, like his father before him, is a member of a religious minority who has fostered an environment of, by modern Middle Eastern standards, theistic tolerance. He has maintained a stable society for years. His government does not consist of radical street activists, but well-educated, professional-minded bureaucrats.
Prior to the civil war, al-Assad's Syria was not the worst place in the Middle East.
SEE RELATED: While Egypt and Syria burn, Obama is Arsonist in Chief
Now, al-Assad is threatening to attack Israel if America takes military action against him. If Israel is attacked, it will retaliate. If the level of retaliation is high enough, other countries — Russia and Iran among them — would be pulled directly into the conflict, and World War III could be the result.
What sane person can honestly want such a thing?
The United States needs to adopt a foreign policy that serves its own, carefully identified interests. We have little to gain and much to lose from intervening in Syria. Why must we solve the problems of a faraway country whose people don't really like us, anyhow?
Most Americans realize that, outside of Israel, the chance for a Western-style republic in the Middle East is almost zero. Western cultural values aren't shared by most of the Middle East, and even if they opt for democracy, as in Iran, it will look nothing like ours.
SEE RELATED: PHILLIPS: No-win in Syria: Barack Obama's perfect war
The countries of the region are generally riven by fratricidal warfare, or united under anti-democratic strong-man governments. At least with the latter, some form of diplomatic relations are possible. In the case of the former, civil society isn't on the radar.
Keeping American troops out of Syria is the rational choice. Assad and the rebels should be left to duke it out alone. The chips will fall where they may.
The United States, meanwhile, should look inward to manage its multitude of pressing domestic affairs. Let's get our own house in order before ordering anyone else's.

WENATCHEE, Wash. — No big changes are anticipated in the way Northwest U.S. shippers store and pack pears in the 2011-12 season.
Like pear varieties, packaging hasn't changed much in recent years. The 44-pound boxes for pears is the standard, industry leader say.
Pears are typically wrapped, packed and stored in the boxes. While apples are usually put in larger bins before they are placed in controlled atmosphere storage, pears are typically wrapped in tissue and packed in 44-pound cartons for long-term storage.

Chad Settle's research covers a range of topics such as the integration of biological and economic systems, citizen suits, bargaining models, the importance of mitigation and adaptation in long-range planning, asymmetric information, demand side management, hyperbolic discounting, and people's perceptions of losses versus gains. His main area of concentration is post-invasion management of exotic plant and animal species. Recently, his research has extended into the classroom, working to determine if various teaching methods and/or the specific format used to deliver the material to students significantly affect students' perception of teaching effectiveness or overall class satisfaction. He is hoping to extend this research to include student performance measures once sufficient data is available.

There was a time when it was considered quite normal to teach unnatural English. Teachers had no difficulty in asking questions like How many feet do you have, Billy?, Where is your nose?, Show me your nose, and so on. It's easy to understand why teachers felt it was necessary to ask questions like these, but today they would be considered quite unacceptable in classroom practice. In the late 1970s a reaction set in against textbook English. Questions like those above were rightly dismissed as ridiculous, but in the process, there was a tendency to dismiss as ridiculous any English used in textbooks, even if it sounded quite natural.
In fact, a lot of the English to be found in coursebooks from the late 1960s onwards is quite natural, even if it has been scripted for language teaching and learning purposes. Here is a dialogue from a textbook published in 1967. The situation is this: a woman is getting off a train and has left her handbag behind. This is the dialogue between a passenger and the woman:
Man: Excuse me. Woman: Yes? Man: Is this your handbag? Woman: Pardon? Man: Is this your handbag? Woman: Yes, it is. Thank you very much.
There is nothing unnatural about this dialogue. It is specially written to teach English. The acid test is to ask native speakers whether they would find anything odd about the English used and the chances are they would not. When we watch a film or read a dialogue in a novel, we never consider for a moment whether the language is natural or not, even though it has been scripted. By dismissing all textbook English, the zealots of the late 1970s were in danger of throwing out the baby with the bathwater. All language coursebooks use English in situations to teach natural English to learners. Direct English is no exception. From the first dialogue where Mr Quercio is checking into the Sheraton and he meets Barbara Seaton to the final dialogue between Tess and David in Book 8, we find scripted natural English.
When people say they want natural English in textbooks, they probably mean spontaneous, unscripted language. Direct English has plenty of instances of this as well. Here is an example from Level 4, 36.1.7 of a fireman telling us spontaneously about his experiences: At one point when I, when we went in, um, the fire started rolling up over the top of us, so um, they called, they backed everybody out and they hit it with deck guns and after a while, we were ordered back in, and we went back in, and I was going up the stairs and on the way up the stairs I looked up and, er, it looks like, you know it looked like. I thought I could see little, er, little holes of light coming through. And then I took a close look and it actually was completely burned up and they were stars up in the sky - so the whole roof was gone and that was one of the, er, more wild situations that I've been in. And I was just a couple of week, er, on the job.
Here you can see all the characteristics of unscripted language: the hesitations, the pauses, the incomplete sentences, but the experience is vividly conveyed. This differs from scripted natural English because it has the untidy characteristics of spontaneous speech. Whether the language you encounter in Direct English is scripted and spontaneous, there is no doubt about one important fact: it is always natural.

If there is any interest, I can do 1 or 2 boxes.
These produced well for me in the spring, but I did not get many throughout the rest of the season. Possibly this was due to not fertilizing, mulching, and there was a lot of competition from weeds. These are to be spaced about 18 inches apart in rows about 30 inches apart. With that in mind, how many might anyone be interested in?
Postage will be for the actual priority amount and confirmation delivery. If we have traded b4, I can send first and postage can be paid after the fact. I thought I'd offer these up here on this 'local' board b4 offering again on the main plant exchange. I will be away from Oct 19th (Thurs) until the 23rd (Mon.)
Thanks...Sue |

I am moving this down and closing this for now, since it is so late. If anyone is interested in the spring, give me a holler, and if I have them, and have the time, will consider sending out any extras for postage. Sue |

here's my scare-a-crow pumpkin (guess that's what you call him). I posted him back on Halloween, but the picture wasn't as good as this one. I think he needs more rafia or a hair trim. |

Cute,love that Pumpkin/scarecrow. Kathi |
thanks! I made him several years ago using a McCalls craft pattern. I do alot better with crafts using a pattern and sewing machine. To be honest, I never knew craft patterns existed until I started working in a fabric store back in the 90's. All I cared to do was sew for myself and my girls. I guess in all the years I've sewn, I never bothered to look in the back of the pattern books to notice the crafts. I'm not that great at free-hand crafting. The ghosts were cute. I had difficulty getting the wrinkles out of the fabric on the heads, maybe because I covered the styrofoam balls with batting first, I don't know. I finally said "that's good enough" LOL |
- Posted by luvstocraft (My Page) on Sun, Mar 2, 08 at 2:51
This is very cute. I could even see putting him on a broom handle and sticking him in a bale of hay too. So glad you figured out the picture posting so we can see your creations. Luvs |
oh yes sooo cute! love the colors and how you decorated him, beautiful job! on the ghost my GS and I made,we didnt cover the ball with anything frist, just draped cheese cloth that was dipped in fabric stiffner, but thats the fun of crafting make it your way! oddie |
I wouldn't have thought of that luvs, but it sounds like a cute idea! Oddie, I thought of getting the cheese cloth but I found white fabric at Walmart for only $1.00 a yard, so I bought that instead. |

When cold weather hits, I always turn to neutrals. This is my version of a tuxedo. What with the satin tuxedo stripe and the lower stance of my jacket buttons, they're a match made in heaven. Couldn't you see Emma Stone wearing something similar on the red carpet? Perhaps these pants and this jacket will make a holiday party appearance, along with a silky blouse and some sparkly accessories.

What Olympians can teach us about the pursuit of greatness and glory
Just recently, the winter Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia, concluded, and the victors went home with their medals. I'm always riveted by the level of power, agility and endurance these athletes display on the ice and snow. I'm even more impressed, however, by their stories. Many of them discovered their talents at an early age and then committed their entire lives to the perfection of their physical and mental abilities. They trained every day, they sought the best coaches, and they sacrificed myriads of other opportunities, interests and pleasures for the pursuit of one single goal — Olympic glory.

Humility is a virtue we learn from Christ
I have seen many people — politicians, celebrities, even priests — especially in Uganda where I grew up, demanding honor and respect from others. Being honored and respected is good. But, if we overly demand it from others, it may not be good. The readings of this Sunday challenge us as Jesus' followers to learn to be humble.

Department of Revenue Wins FTA Award for Compliance
For Release: March 27, 2007
Contact: Meredith Helgerson, Communications Officer, (608) 261-2271
MADISON – The Wisconsin Department of Revenue announces today it is the winner of the Federation of Tax Administrators' 2007 FTA Award for Outstanding Compliance Program. The department was sited for its progressive work on its Data Warehouse Application.
"We are very pleased to receive this award from the FTA. The award represents all the hard work Department of Revenue employees have dedicated to improved technology systems," stated Revenue Secretary Roger M. Ervin. "This award also highlights the value of new technologies, supported by good management, that become effective assets for the state's taxpayers."
The Department of Revenue won for its Data Warehouse Application, leveraging a pilot corporate data warehouse project across divisions and bureaus. More than 23 internal and external data sources are included in the warehouse. Business users are able to affect the direction and requirements of the system because the department built the entire system itself. A phased approach further allowed for some immediate functionality, followed by full functionality as the rollout is completed.
The data warehouse has allowed work to be performed faster and more efficiently. For instance, 242 hours of auditor time were saved when the warehouse was used to clean an external data file during a motor vehicle audit project. Overall, assessments based on audits selected by the data warehouse have reached $1.5 million, and another $19 million are in the assessment stage.

Salon leftist hack Steve Kornacki jokes on MSNBC about Bob Woodward being 'found dead' this morning
Leftist humor: Salon leftst hack Steve Kornacki joking Bob Woodward was found dead in the morning on NBC's cable propaganda outfit. Is this supposed to be funny? Joking about someone being dead? I guess that's what progressive liberal Democrats find funny or something. Amazing how leftists eat their own. Bob Woodward fourty years ago was a God to the left for taking down Nixon. Today? He is the devil for exposing Obama.
Steve Kornacki on MSNBC just made a joke about Bod Woodward being "found dead" this morning.

A group of more than 80 Republicans will file a "friend of the court" brief with the U.S. Supreme Court in favor of same-sex marriage.
The group includes some members of the House of Representatives, four former governors, and the daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney.
"Conservatives should start to lead again and push their states to join the nine others that allow all their citizens to marry," former Utah governor and Republican presidential candidate Jon Huntsman, Jr. wrote.
"All Americans should be treated equally by the law, whether they marry in a church, another religious institution, or a town hall. Civil equality is compatible with, and indeed promotes, freedom of conscience," he concluded.
The High Court will hear cases involving same-sex marriage next month.

Baseball Cuff Bracelets
Part 3 of 3
Have you been watching any of the Olympics on tv? I have - my favourite spectator sports are the synchronized diving and the gymnastics. So I couldn't pass up on this nod to sports.
But even if you're not into sports, you likely know someone who is. So these baseball cuffs available from Elsewares.com make great gifts for the sports fan in your life.
They are handmade using genuine leather baseballs and have been velvet lined for comfort. How the cuff maintains its curvature and fit is an invisible, bendable brass frame. Each bears the autograph of the designer but there is plenty of space left for collecting autographs from baseball stars.
The sizing is from small to medium so it will fit children, youths and women. The nice thing about the baseball cuffs is not just because it is soft and great for people who have metal allergies but that they are unisex.

You're coming up with some interesting jewelry lately! I don't see these on me - but I think it would be a cool thing to get autographed for sure!

It's because I want people to be inpsired to try different things. Won't do to be doing the same design over and over again.

I had a baseball pattern idea for my leather scraps just like this bracelet a little while ago (but never got around to making it), this is just so well executed!! I love the one with the signatures all over it, that's much more useful than just a signed ball.

I agree, Diana. A signed baseball usually sits in someone's house where they can't enjoy it all the time and few people can admire it.

Seating Chart & Views
Many find DPAC's sightlines much more intimate than those at nearby arenas, amphitheaters and auditoriums. While you check out our seating chart below, be sure to click on the section numbers to see a view from your seat.
Seating Descriptions
Over half of DPAC's seating is in the Orchestra where almost all 30 rows provide a truly intimate view of the stage compared to large arenas and amphitheaters. Orchestra seating is situated in a gradual incline on what many call the "floor level". The Orchestra has four sections (Sections 1-2-3-4) and seating distance from the stage ranges from just 6 feet to about 100 feet.
Grand Tier
Based on guest surveys, seats in the Grand Tier provide the best overall experience of any seating area at DPAC. Seats in this area are often priced $10 to $20 less than our best orchestra seats. Grand Tier seats are located one level above the Orchestra and seating is on more of an incline than the Orchestra. The Grand Tier has nine rows situated in three sections (Sections 5-6-7) and seating distance from the stage ranges from 85 feet to 110 feet.
Seats are priced relative their proximity to the stage, and many find great value in our Balcony seating where prices are normally $20 to $40 less than our best Orchestra and Grand Tier seats. Balcony seats are two levels above the orchestra and have a steeper incline which provides a different viewing experience than the Grand Tier and Orchestra. The Balcony has 15 rows situated in three sections (Sections 8-9-10) and seating distance from the stage ranges from 85 feet to about 145 feet.

Perfect for me
I am a big woman with diabetes and heels that crack, very painfully, and bleed. I also have a balance disorder. I bought these for everyday wear. The second time I wore these was to the podiatrist. He evaluated these for me, and he liked the treads for helpin my balance and making me safer from slipping, the arch supports, the general fit, and the toe room. He especially liked the high-backed cup shape of the heel. He said that will discourage ny heels from cracking. He said thy're ideal for me! These definitely discourage foot pain. I got a great deal on these black ones with silver flowers on the Christmas sale. I usually wear size 11 of other shoes, but i find size 10 Crocs work best for me. I also happen to think that Mercy Wor is a very pretty shoe! Now I need blue ones!

Some news reports say the economy is rebounding. Others say another recession is nigh.
Produce suppliers in the Pacific Northwest say they have their own indicators that point to troubled times.
"I think the biggest thing I've noticed is some of the companies that we've dealt with over the years that were slower-pay types or a little more difficult to deal with have disappeared," said Dale Hayton, sales manager at Valley Pride Sales, a Mount Vernon, Wash.-based grower-shipper.
The region is still loaded with an ample number of produce suppliers, but tough economic times have thinned out the numbers, Hayton said.
"I look at my (Red Books) — I have stacks of them from years and years ago, and they used to be substantially thicker than they are now," he said.
The downturn that hit the U.S. beginning in 2007 and continues today has contributed to that, Hayton said.
"That's just fewer companies, and I think the economy probably hurt those companies that were, you know, getting by but not doing great, and some of them have disappeared," he said.
Focus shift
Economic pressures caused Seattle-based City Produce to shift its focus a bit, said Pat Suyama, owner.
"I stopped doing retail because they have a lot of (wholesalers) around me who are like mom-and-pop places, and I can't compete with them because they're so cheap and don't have any overhead," Suyama said.
Certain sectors of the foodservice business have slowed, though, which presents a quandary, Suyama said.
"People are still going out but not like before," he said.
Federal Way, Wash.-based Botsford & Goodfellow Inc. also has altered its emphasis a bit, said Ron Escene, manager.
He said his company has changed from about half retail and half foodservice to about 70% retail.
"Fewer people eat out, but those same people still want to eat good product, and they're buying it at retail," he said.
All in the same boat
Economic pressures are weighing heavily on suppliers, said Terry Luppino, vice president of Northwest Fruit & Produce Inc. in Fife, Wash.
"It's killing us, (but) everybody's in the same boat," he said, listing the cost of fuel and competition among the pressures.
He said suppliers try to undercut each other in price and offer something rivals don't have.
"Restaurants are closing their doors," he said.
Consumers are finding good bargains, Luppino said.

After my previous sea fishing trips to Fleetwood it was with some dismay that I found out that BLAS had to have the Christmas match before the Christmas meeting and after the first attempt was a resounding blank for everyone the venue chosen was Rossall Hospital.
I've not had much luck here this year either due to weed, weather or just being a bit crap but I was determined to catch. The sea was flat calm but there was no sign of the rafts of weed that have plagued us recently and the temperature was at least above zero (just).
The only drawback was lack of fresh bait due to the cold snap earlier in the week so armed with frozen Black Lug, Squid and Mackerel I set up opposite a small gap in the sandbank hoping that the smelly May 2009 vintage Black Lug and Squid cocktails would tempt a few Dabs.
Eight of us fished to the right of the slipway while the Fleetwood club, also having a match, set up to the right and the wait began. Shacky was first in with a double header of undersized Dabs and soon everyone except Dave had caught some of these little flatties. As well as an in size Dab I managed a small Flounder on Mackerel (too small dammit) and Tom managed to snare a half decent Whiting on his last cast.
I had a great afternoon with good company which was made even better by finally breaking my run of bad luck, admittedly it was only a Dab but damn – it was good to catch a fish. I even came third and this being BLAS's only cash match won a whole… wait for it… TEN pounds.
This is one of the reasons I love being a member of Blackpool and Layton Angling Society, there is some stunning silverware to be won and some of the anglers within the club are exceptionally skilled but being part of BLAS is all about mates, matches are realistically just a good excuse to get together and catch (pardon the pun) up.

Aktuell. VILLA-K / Cell Space Architects. Architects: Mutsue Hayakusa Cell Space Architects Location : Karuizawa, Nagano, Japan Design Period: August 2008 – May 2009 Construction Period: June 2009 – May 2010 Photographs: Masao Nishikawa This site is located on a hilltop in one of the eminent Karuizawa villa areas.
All directions around the site are clear for view in winter.The villa consists of four parts of floors and four parts of roofs around a central pillar. The four floors placed on different levels are connected to the surrounding out space through windows in order to give diverse views for the residents. Hoeve Nooitgedacht / Architectenbureau di't. Architect: Architectenbureau di't Location: Gravenweg, Rotterdam, Netherlands Project architect: G.J. van Leer Structural engineer: Adviesbureau Versteeg Design: 2008 Realization Year: 2009-2010 Photographs: Architectenbureau di't, G.J. van Leer An old derelict farmhouse near the centre of Rotterdam, came in the market as a building site.
Van Leer recognized the quality of the existing building and designed a plan to restore the old building, including an expansion that would bring back the original volume of the house. De rear part of the farm had collapsed in the 1950's. The old house has been given a new foundation and has been restored. On the front the building hasn't changed, but behind the old building is an extension in radical new materials. Villa I / GRAD arkitekter. Architects: GRAD arkitekter Location: Täby, Sweden Project Team: Sébastien Corbari, Malin Hultmark, Beata Grepe Structural & Façade Engineering: SD project Builder: ITBMS Project Area: 280 sqm Project Year: 2007-2009 Photographs: Sébastien Corbari Apart from a small bathroom window, the existing 50th century villa had no contact with the beautiful pine hillside at the backside.
The strategy outlined in the work has been to see the house as an unfinished building, to understand the house's qualities and shortcomings. The house is extended naturally to forest. The roof gets a new lining of zinc metal that runs down toward the pines on the backside. Houle-Thibault Residence / Chevalier Morales Architectes. Architects: Chevalier Morales Architectes Location: Mont-Tremblant, Québec, Canada Project managers: Sergio Morales, Stephan Chevalier Project team: Sergio Morales, Stephan Chevalier, Karine Dieujuste, Christine Giguère, Samantha Hayes Clients: Sylvie Houle, Richard Thibault General contractor: Constructions Somart Site area: 4,500 sqm Built area: 300 sqm Project Year: 2007-2008 Photographs: Marc Cramer Built on a mountainside with incredible views of Mont Tremblant, the Thibault residence questions the obvious nostalgia of traditional architecture imbedded within most of the large residential developments built in natural areas and intended for tourists or for secondary residences for city dwellers.
Fortress House / ITN Architects. Architects: ITN Architects Location: St Andrew's Beach, Australia Project Team: Aidan Halloran Engineer: Josh Millie Jomil Engineering Builder: On the Rise Construction, Ross Stapleton Project Area: 260 sqm Project Year: 2008 Photographs: Albert Comper This coastal house was designed as a literal interpretation of the client's initial brief.
They requested a very private retreat, anti-social, even unfriendly to the street, as a counterpoint to their sociable city lives. The only 2 windows to the street frontage are deep set and high, allowing no interior views, and the main 1st floor entry is reached via a 6 metre bridge. It is only once beyond this uninviting threshold, that the house gradually begins to open up to the surrounding ti tree covered dunes, with carefully selected views. This comes to a dramatic conclusion with the 6.5 metre tall window at the far end of the central spine of the house. House Vihavainen / Mika Huhtala & Kari Pöykkö / Architecture Office Kanttia 2. Architects: Mika Huhtala & Kari Pöykkö / Architecture Office Kanttia 2 Ltd Location: Punkaharju, Finland Project area: 232 sqm Project year: 2009 Photographs: Sauli Kosonen House Vihavainen is situated on a exceptionally beautiful lake side plot in Punkaharju, Finland.
The form and materials were inspired by the surronding nature with its rushes, stones and tall pine-trees. Large windows bring the nature inside to be a part of the everyday life. Weathered wood and low mass lifted from the ground gives the building humbleness and modesty in the beautiful Finnish landscape. Nature will take back it's space in few years. Alluring Family House in Klokočná by Studio Pha. Alluring Family House in Klokočná by Studio Pha Studio Pha, a Prague-based studio, has completed the delightful, efficient Family Home project.
Developed in Klokočná, a homely, scenic village in the Prague-East district, making the selection for where the house should be built an easy one, as it fits in perfectly with the brief of a welcoming, traditional family home. The houses charm and charisma is clear to see immediately. The understatement inputted into the design and execution from Studio Pha is a modern phenomenon within itself, and offers the house a traditional yet unique and beautiful edge. The old-fashioned, homely pebbled path offers an insight of appeal into this elegant home, and this is supplemented with the typical family garage.

Standing prominently on a hilltop just outside Washington, Virginia, the eighteenth century farmhouse is surrounded by five hundred acres of farmland providing vantage point views of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
The owners desired an addition to their beloved farmhouse that would bring the outside in and enable them to share the landscape and its changing seasons with friends and family. In addition to entertaining, the owners, who enjoy gardening and horseback riding, required an area to clean up after days spent outdoors. It was also their experience of entry and threshold, both in the daily utilitarian sense and in a more occasional formal sense, which needed to be clarified. Brick Thickness / A2 Architects. Architect: A2 Architects Location: Dublin, Ireland Project Team: Peter Carroll, Caomhán Murphy, Miriam Dunn, Julia Gonzales, Tom O'Brien, David Maher (Engineer) Project Area: 35 sqm Project Year: 2006 Photographs: Courtesy of A2 Architects The introduction of the luas light rail service along the old harcourt street railway line has resulted in a blurring of private and public space for houses that back onto the railway line.
A reversal occurs resulting in the rear of houses being presented as the new front. Contemporary Villa in Szentendre, Hungary by Architema. By Eric • Apr 13, 2011 • Selected Work Lajos Kuknyó, principal of Architema, has designed this contemporary residence in Szentendre, Hungary.
This 1,948 square foot home sits in a semi-rural context, 30 miles away from the capital, Budapest. Corea Harbor House / Norelius Studio. Architects: Norelius Studio Location: Corea, Maine, USA Structural Engineer: Albert Putnam, PE Lighting Designer: Peter Knuppel Lighting Design Builder: Kenneth Thibault Project Year: 2010 Project Area: 130 sqm Photographs: Kelly Bellis Context was one of the most influential generators for this project: a down-east Maine village, complete with vibrant, scrappy and true-to-itself working harbor.
While many new houses here are built on large parcels of pristine isolated land, these clients had made the more sustainable commitment to build on an empty lot in the village. The diagram of the house takes advantage of solar gain and views—fortuitously aligned—in each of the major spaces. Since the goal was to keep the house a concise 1400 square feet, the plan became long and thin: literally the dimensions of a mobile home. Double Dwelling in Den Hoorn / DP6 Architectuurstudio. Architects: DP6 Architectuurstudio / Robert Alewijnse Location: Den Hoorn, The Netherlands Project Year: 2010 Project Area: 426 sqm Photographs: Christian Richters This project called for a semi-detached house, a double dwelling for two families.
The double dwelling was designed, developed and realized by architect Robert Alewijnse and designed as a singular architectonic object, housing two completely different homes. The eastern home was specifically designed for the architect's family and the western home was sold and adapted to the specific wishes of the new owners. Family House in Klokočná by Studio Pha. By Eric • Nov 24, 2011 • Selected Work Prague-based practice Studio Pha has completed the Family House in Klokočná project in 2010. This two story country-style home is located in Klokočná, a village and municipality in Prague-East District in the Central Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic. Family House in Klokočná by Studio Pha: Family Houses in Popovicky / Jan Stempel. Architects: Jan Stempel Location: Popovicky, Czech Republic Landscaping: Lucie Vogelova / Terra florida Project area: 150 sqm + 149 sqm Completion: 2010 Photographs: Ivan Nemec / CFA New family houses for different private clients are situated in a small village close to Prague.
This location is very popular with young families with children. The parents work in Prague, but live in the country in a family house with a garden. This strong trend in the Czech Republic represents mainly standardized houses from catalogues. Those two presented houses – designed as an archetypal form of a house in central Europe – stand out of this mass production. Hillside Habitat / Edwards Moore. Architects: Edwards Moore Location: Kinglake, Victoria, Australia Project Team: Juliet Moore, Ben Edwards Project Area: 135 sqm Project Year: 2011 Photographs: Peter Bennetts We have recently completed a new home built to replace one lost on Black Saturday on a steep mountain site overlooking the Kinglake National Park with views to the Mornington peninsular beyond,this exhilarating location with its towering eucalyptus trees and diminishing scars from that phenomenal day required a design response equally as unique.
The brief was to design a home that embraced the notion of living whilst engaging with the landscape surrounding it. We developed a biophilic design response considering every component of its surrounding environment. There is an instinctive, biological bond between humans and other living systems.
