Forbidden Planet is a 1956 American science fiction film.[3][4] Produced by MGM, it was directed by Fred M. Wilcox and stars Walter Pidgeon, Anne Francis, and Leslie Nielsen. Forbidden Planet is the first science fiction film in which humans are depicted traveling in a starship of their own creation[5] and was also the very first science fiction film set entirely on another world in interstellar space, far away from the planet Earth.[6] Forbidden Planet is considered one of the great science fiction films of the 1950s,[7] a precursor of what was to come for the science fiction film genre in the decades that followed. The characters and isolated setting have been compared to those in William Shakespeare's The Tempest,[8] and its plot does contain certain story analogues and a reference to one section of Jung's theory on the collective unconscious.[9]
Forbidden Planet was filmed in Eastmancolor and CinemaScope, and features special effect which were nominated for an Academy Award; it was the only major award nomination the film received. The film features the first groundbreaking use of an entirely electronic musical score by Louis and Bebe Barron. Forbidden Planet also features Robby the Robot, the first film robot that was more than just a mechanical "tin can" on legs; Robby displays a distinct personality and is a complete supporting character in the film.[10]
The film was entered into the Library of Congress' National Film Registry in 2013, being deemed "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant."[11]
In the 23rd century, the starship C-57D travels to the distant planet Altair IV to discover the fate of an expedition sent 20 years earlier. After entering orbit, the ship receives a transmission from Dr. Edward Morbius, one of the expedition's scientists. He states no assistance is necessary and warns the ship to stay away, saying he cannot guarantee their safety, but Commander John Adams insists on landing.
They are met on arrival by Robby the Robot, who takes Adams, Lieutenant Jerry Farman, and Lieutenant "Doc" Ostrow to Morbius's home. There, Morbius recounts that an unknown "planetary force" killed nearly everyone and then vaporized their starship, Bellerophon, as the survivors tried to lift off the planet. Only Morbius, his wife (who later died of natural causes), and their daughter Altaira were somehow immune. Morbius fears that the C-57D crew will meet the same fate. Altaira, having only known her father, becomes attracted to several of the Earth men, and a love triangle forms between her, Adams and Farman.
The next night, equipment aboard the C-57D is sabotaged by an invisible intruder. Adams and Ostrow confront Morbius the following morning. They learn he has been studying the Krell, a highly advanced native race that mysteriously died out suddenly 200,000 years before. In a Krell laboratory, Morbius shows Adams and Ostrow a device he calls a "plastic educator", capable of measuring and enhancing intellectual capacity. When Morbius first used this machine, he barely survived but discovered his intellect had been permanently doubled. This enabled him, along with information from a stored Krell library, to build Robby and the other "technological marvels" in his home. Morbius then takes them on a tour of a vast cube-shaped underground Krell machine complex, each side 20 miles (30 km) long, still functioning and powered by 9,200 thermonuclear reactors. Afterwards, Adams demands that the Krell's knowledge be turned over to Earth supervision but Morbius refuses, citing the potential danger that Krell technology would pose to mankind if it were to fall into the wrong hands.
In response to the sabotage, Adams orders a force field fence deployed around the starship. This proves useless when the intruder returns undetected and murders Chief Engineer Quinn. The crew study a casting made from one of the large footprints the intruder made. When the intruder returns, the C-57D's crew discover that the creature is invisible but becomes semi-visible as it stands within the fence's force field. However, the crew's energy weapons have no effect and it kills Farman and three other crew members. Back in the Krell lab, Morbius is startled awake by Altaira's screaming; at that same instant, the large creature suddenly vanishes.
Later, while Adams confronts Morbius at his home, Ostrow sneaks away to use the Krell educator; as Morbius had warned, however, he is fatally injured. Ostrow explains to Adams that the Great Machine was built to materialize anything the Krell could imagine, projecting matter anywhere on the planet. However, with his dying breath, he also says the Krell forgot one thing: "Monsters from the Id!" Adams asserts that Morbius' subconscious mind, enhanced by the "plastic educator", can utilize the Great Machine, recreating the Id monster that killed the original expedition and the C-57D crew. Morbius refuses to accept this conclusion.
After Altaira declares her love for Adams in defiance of her father's wishes, Robby detects the creature approaching the house. Morbius commands the robot to kill it, but Robby knows it is a manifestation of Morbius and his programming to never harm humans conflicts with Morbius' command and shuts Robby down. Powered by the Great Machine, the creature melts the indestructible metal doors of the Krell laboratory where Adams, Altaira, and Morbius have taken refuge. Morbius finally accepts the truth: the creature is an extension of his own mind, "his evil self". He then confronts the creature but this act triggers a backlash in the Great Machine which mortally injures him. Before he dies, he warns Adams that he and Altaira must leave the planet immediately and he starts a chain reaction within the machine which will completely destroy the planet.
From deep space, Adams, Altaira, Robby, and the rest of the crew witness the destruction of Altair IV on the ship's main viewscreen.
The screen story by Irving Block and Allen Adler, written in 1952, was originally titled Fatal Planet. The later screenplay draft by Cyril Hume renamed the film Forbidden Planet, because this was believed to have greater box-office appeal.[12] Block and Adler's drama took place in the year 1976 on the planet Mercury. An Earth expedition headed by John Grant was sent to the planet to retrieve Dr. Adams and his daughter Dorianne, who had been stranded there for twenty years. From then on, its plot is roughly the same as that of the completed film, though Grant is able to rescue both Adams and his daughter and escape the invisible monster stalking them.
The film sets were constructed on a Metro Goldwyn Mayer (MGM) sound stage at its Culver City film lot and were designed by Cedric Gibbons and Arthur Longeran. The film was shot entirely indoors, with all the Altair IV exterior scenes simulated using sets, visual effects, and matte paintings.
A full-size mock-up of roughly three fourths of the C-57D starship was built to suggest its full width of 170 ft (51 m). The ship was surrounded by a huge, painted cyclorama featuring the desert landscape of Altair IV; this one set took up all of the available space in one of the Culver City sound stages.
Later, C-57D models, special effects shots, and the full-size set details were reused in several different episodes of the television series The Twilight Zone, which were filmed by CBS at the same MGM studio location in Culver City.
At a cost of roughly $125,000, Robby the Robot was very expensive for a single film prop at this time.[13] Both the electrically controlled passenger vehicle driven by Robby and the truck/tractor-crane off-loaded from the C-57D starship were also constructed specially for this film. Robby the Robot later starred in the science fiction film The Invisible Boy and appeared in many TV series and films that followed; like the C-57D, Robby (and his passenger vehicle) appeared in various episodes of CBS' The Twilight Zone, usually slightly modified for each appearance.
The animated sequences of Forbidden Planet, especially the attack of the "Id Monster", were created by the veteran animator Joshua Meador,[14] who was lent out to MGM by Walt Disney Pictures. According to a "Behind the Scenes" featurette on the film's DVD, a close look at the creature shows it to have a small goatee beard, suggesting its connection to Dr. Morbius, the only character with this physical feature; the bellowing, now visible Id monster, caught in the crewman's high-energy beams during the attack, is a direct reference to and visual pun on MGM's familiar roaring mascot, Leo the Lion, seen at the very beginning of Forbidden Planet and the studio's other films of the era.
Forbidden Planet was first released across the U. S. on April 1, 1956 in CinemaScope, Metrocolor, and in some theaters, stereophonic sound, either by the magnetic or Perspecta processes. The Hollywood premiere was held at Grauman's Chinese Theatre, and Robby the Robot was on display in the lobby. Forbidden Planet ran every day at Grauman's Theater through the following September.
According to MGM records the film initially earned $1,530,000 in the US and Canada[15] and $1,235,000 elsewhere resulting in a loss of $210,000.[2]
Forbidden Planet was re-released to movie theaters during 1972 as one of MGM's "Kiddie Matinee" features; it was missing about six minutes of film footage cut to ensure it received a "G" rating from the Motion Picture Association of America.[5] Later video releases carry a "G" rating, though they are all the original theatrical version.
Forbidden Planet was first released in the pan and scan format in 1982 on MGM VHS and Betamax videotape and on MGM laser disc and CED Videodisc; years later, in 1996, it was again re-issued by MGM/UA, but this time in widescreen VHS and laser disc, both for the film's 40th anniversary. But it was The Criterion Collection that later re-issued Forbidden Planet in CinemaScope's original wider screen 2:55-to-1 aspect ratio, on a deluxe laser disc set, with various extra features on a second disc. Warner Bros. next released the film on DVD in 1999 (MGM's catalog of films had been sold in 1988 to AOL-Time Warner by Turner Entertainment and MGM/UA). Warner's release offered both cropped and widescreen picture formats on the same disc.
For the film's 50th anniversary, the Ultimate Collector's Edition was released on November 28, 2006 in an over-sized red metal box, using the original movie poster for its wraparound cover. Both DVD and high definition HD DVD formats were available in this deluxe package. Inside both premium packages were the films Forbidden Planet and The Invisible Boy, The Thin Man episode "Robot Client" and a documentary Watch the Skies!: Science Fiction, The 1950s and Us. Also included were miniature lobby cards and an 8 cm (3-inch) toy replica of Robby the Robot.[16] This was quickly followed by the release of the Forbidden Planet 50th Anniversary edition in both standard DVD and HD DVD packaging.[5] Both 50th anniversary formats were mastered by Warner Bros.-MGM techs from a fully restored, digital transfer of the film.[17] A Blu-ray Disc edition of Forbidden Planet was released on September 7, 2010.
Shortly before the film was released, a novelization appeared in hardcover and then later in mass-market paperback; it was written by W. J. Stuart (the mystery novelist Philip MacDonald writing under the pseudonym),[18] which chapters the novel into separate first person narrations by Dr. Ostrow, Commander Adams, and Dr. Morbius. The novel delves further into the mysteries of the vanished Krell and Morbius' relationship to them. In the novel he repeatedly exposes himself to the Krell's manifestation machine, which (as suggested in the film) boosts his brain power far beyond normal human intelligence. Unfortunately, Morbius retains enough of his imperfect human nature to be afflicted with hubris and a contempt for humanity. Not recognizing his own base primitive drives and limitations proves to be Morbius' downfall, as it had for the extinct Krell. While not stated explicitly in the film (although the basis for a deleted scene first included as an extra with the Criterion Collection's laser disc set and included with both the later 50th anniversary DVD and current Blu-ray releases), the novelization compared Altaira's ability to tame the tiger (until her sexual awakening with Commander Adams) to the medieval myth of a unicorn being tamable only by a virgin.
The novel also raises an issue never dealt with in the film: when Dr. Ostrow dissects one of the dead Earth-type animals, he discovers that its internal structure is altogether unlike that of any real animal. The tiger, the deer, and the monkey are all conscious creations by Dr. Morbius and only outwardly resemble their Earth counterparts. Since the Krell's great machine can project matter "in any form" it has the power to create life. Thus, the Krell's self-destruction can be interpreted by the reader as a cosmic punishment for misappropriating the life-creating power of the universe. This is why Commander Adams says in his speech to Altaira "...we are, after all, not God."
However, the "machine creations" of the novel can be said to break some canons established in the film. The great machine operated in real time and could not create lifeforms that were independent of its operator's immediate will. Thus, Morbius would be tasked with re-imaging those animals any time they were needed, and there is no suggestion anywhere in the novel of this happening. Hence, the more plausible statement offered within the film: the tiger, the deer, and the monkey were the descendants of specimens brought to Altair IV from Earth.
Upon its publication in 1956, Anthony Boucher dismissed the novelization as "an abysmally banal job of hackwork."[19]
Forbidden Planet's innovative electronic music score, credited as "electronic tonalities," partly to avoid having to pay any of the film industry music guild fees,[citation needed] was composed by Louis and Bebe Barron. MGM producer Dore Schary discovered the couple quite by chance at a beatnik nightclub in Greenwich Village while on a family Christmas visit to New York City; Schary hired them on the spot to compose his film's musical score. While the theremin (which was not used in Forbidden Planet) had been used on the soundtrack of Alfred Hitchcock's Spellbound (1945), the Barrons' electronic composition is credited with being the first completely electronic film score; their soundtrack preceded the invention of the Moog synthesizer by eight years (1964).
Using ideas and procedures from the book, Cybernetics: Or, Control and Communication in the Animal and the Machine (1948) by the mathematician and electrical engineer Norbert Wiener, Louis Barron constructed his own electronic circuits that he used to generate the score's "bleeps, blurps, whirs, whines, throbs, hums, and screeches".[13] Most of these sounds were generated using an electronic circuit called a "ring modulator". After recording the basic sounds, the Barrons further manipulated the sounds by adding other effects, such as reverberation and delay, and reversing or changing the speeds of certain sounds.[20]
Since Louis and Bebe Barron did not belong to the Musicians Union, their work could not be considered for an Academy Award, in either the "soundtrack" or the "sound effects" categories. MGM declined to publish a soundtrack album at the same time that Forbidden Planet was released. However, film composer and conductor David Rose later published a 7" (18 cm) single of his original main title theme that he had recorded at the MGM Studios in Culver City during March 1956. His main title theme had been discarded when Rose, who had originally been hired to compose the musical score in 1955, was discharged from the project by Dore Schary sometime between Christmas 1955 and New Year's Day.[citation needed] The film's original theatrical trailer contains snippets of Rose's score, the tapes of which Rose reportedly later destroyed.[citation needed]
The Barrons finally released their soundtrack in 1976 as an LP album for the film's 20th anniversary; it was on their very own Planet Records label (later changed to Small Planet Records and distributed by GNP Crescendo Records). The LP was premiered at MidAmeriCon, the 34th World Science Fiction Convention, held in Kansas City, MO over the 1976 Labor Day weekend, as part of a 20th Anniversary celebration of Forbidden Planet held at that Worldcon; the Barrons were there promoting their album's first release, signing all the copies sold at the convention. They also introduced the first of three packed-house screenings that showed an MGM 35mm fine grain vault print in original CinemaScope and stereophonic sound. A decade later, in 1986, their soundtrack was released on a music CD for the film's 30th Anniversary, with a six-page color booklet containing images from Forbidden Planet, plus liner notes from the composers, Louis and Bebe Barron, and Bill Malone.[20]
A tribute to the film's soundtrack was performed live in concert by Jack Dangers, available on disc one of the album Forbidden Planet Explored.
The following is a list of compositions on the CD:[20]
In the authorized biography of Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry, Roddenberry notes that Forbidden Planet "was one of my inspirations for Star Trek."[21]
The robot B9 and set of the spaceship Jupiter 2 in the TV series Lost in Space were inspired by Forbidden Planet and designed by Robert Kinoshita, creator of Robby the Robot.
The underground complex of Project Tic-Toc in the TV series "The Time Tunnel" is very similar to the underground Krell laboratory.
Elements of the Doctor Who serial Planet of Evil were consciously based on the 1956 film.[22]
Forbidden Planet is named alongside several other classic science fiction films in the opening song "Science Fiction Double Feature" from The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
The U. K. musical Return to the Forbidden Planet was inspired by and loosely based on the MGM film [23] and won the Olivier Award for best musical of 1989/90.[24]
A scene from the science fiction TV series Babylon 5, set on the Epsilon III Great Machine bridge, strongly resembles the Krell's great machine. While this was not the intent of the show's producer, the special effects crew, tasked with creating the imagery, stated that the Krell's machine was a definite influence on their Epsilon III designs.[25]
In Strata, an early Terry Pratchett novel, Silver – a bear-like alien – mentions portraying the Id Monster in a remake of Forbidden Planet.
This section requires expansion. (February 2014) |
The film appeared on two American Film Institute Lists.
New Line Cinema had developed a remake with James Cameron, Nelson Gidding and Stirling Silliphant involved at different points. In 2007 DreamWorks set up the project with David Twohy set to direct. Warner Bros. re-acquired the rights the following year and on October 31, 2008, J. Michael Straczynski was announced as writing a remake, Joel Silver was to produce.[28] Straczynski explained that the original had been his favorite science fiction film, and it gave Silver an idea for the new film that makes it "not a remake", "not a reimagining", and "not exactly a prequel". His vision for the film would not be retro, because when the original was made it was meant to be futuristic. Straczynski met with people working in astrophysics, planetary geology and artificial intelligence to reinterpret the Krell back-story as a film trilogy.[29] As of November 2013, no more information had been released about this Forbidden Planet remake; the project appears to have disappeared into development limbo or gone directly into industry turnaround.

The only Batman movie (or superhero movie) to ever receive Oscar buzz and even win a statue for the acting. Christopher Nolan may have established a new take on Batman with his origin story, but nothing compares with seeing the hero operating in full force and facing his greatest foe. The film belongs to the Joker, and Nolan's punk-rock anarchist spin on the character combined with Heath Ledger's incomparable manic performance elevated this film above all other comic-book adaptations. No matter how The Dark Knight Rises turns out, there's no way it will have the same cultural impact based on Ledger's tragic demise alone. Joker aside, this is still the most intellectually satisfying Batman flick, tonally true to the most complex graphic novels starring the character and featuring some instantly iconic action.

It's time for Coasters to start filling shoeboxes so children in need around the world aren't forgotten this Christmas.
Samaritan's Purse Canada is once again asking people to spend a small portion of their Christmas budget to purchase basic school supplies, hygiene items and a toy or two for a needy child through Operation Christmas Child.
Givers place their items inside a shoebox, and for $7 each, Operation Christmas Child ships the boxes to one of dozens of destinations around the world. In places plagued by war, disease and poverty, children wait for the gifts that will bring them joy and, in many cases, allow them to go to school.
Last year the Sunshine Coast managed to ship 941 filled shoeboxes through Operation Christmas Child. Local organizer Martha Schroth received a moving letter from one boy explaining how the gift brought tears to his eyes.
The eleven-year-old boy from Serbia named Nebojsa wrote, "Since I was born this is the best gift I have ever received."
He was especially moved by the gift of school supplies.
"His mother explained that the children in his school made fun of him because he didn't have school supplies during math class and he got an F because he told the teacher he forgot his supplies. The truth was that his family didn't have the money to buy them," Nebojsa's pastor told Schroth. "He held the supplies in his arms for a long time, with tears in his eyes."
Since Operation Christmas Child started in 1993, the effort has delivered more than 94-million shoeboxes to children like Nebojsa. This year Samaritan's Purse wants to top the 100-million mark.
"To reach that goal, we are asking Canadians from coast to coast to pack shoe boxes during the next few weeks," said Fred Weiss, executive director of Samaritan's Purse Canada. "Together, we can use the power of a simple gift to touch the hearts of children and improve their lives."
Operation Christmas Child allows givers to choose what age and gender of child they want to pack a shoebox for and then guidelines are given to ensure kids get a variety of fun and useful things.
The person packing the shoebox is free to give what they like within those guidelines, but certain items are prohibited and could result in a shoebox not reaching a child. Due to customs regulations, do not include toothpaste, food or any chewy, crumbly or soft candy, liquids or items that could leak, melt, freeze or break, playing cards, toy knives or guns or anything that could scare or harm a child.
Empty shoeboxes can be picked up at a number of churches on the Coast as well as from Gibsons Building Supplies in Gibsons and Sechelt, IGA Marketplace in Gibsons and Curves in Gibsons.
Full boxes must be returned by Nov. 10 to Calvary Baptist Church at 711 Park Rd. in Gibsons to ensure they reach their destination by Christmas.
Givers can purchase a plastic shoebox to use instead of the cardboard ones provided, but Schroth notes it must be good quality.
Samaritan's Purse Canada also offers an on-line way to give. Through www.samaritanspurse.ca you can virtually pack a box, complete with a hand-picked gift, for around $40.

The illustration depicts many different cultures, which are represented by many dots in a variety of sizes and colors, which coexist and are connected to other cultures on Earth.
I believe that culture comes from the human wisdom gained from living in harmony with Mother Nature, and the different environments and history bring the differences and the diversity of cultures.
There are so many countries, and so many differing customs, so I think it is important to have a humble attitude toward other cultures,because it is possible that we can discover a kindred connection with other cultures that we otherwise wouldn't recognize.
We should not reject another culture because it does not conform to our own.
Due to amazing technological advances, world cultures are becoming closer and closer.
The mass media today has the information highway for international news and happenings to be brought into everyone's living room. I think now is the time to understand cultural diversity and for differing cultures to strive together to resolve world problems.

Oh, THAT'S What the Boy Scouts Mean by Being 'Morally Straight'
8:20 am in Uncategorized by brasch
Harry Strausser III owns a successful small business with 25 national champion in several forensics categories, and represented the Boy Scouts of America in national competitions sponsored by the Reader's Digest. As a graduate student, he coached a college forensics team. He has never been arrested or suspected of any crime.
Strausser is an Eagle Scout. He is also gay. The National Council of the Boy Scouts of America says he doesn't have the right "core values" to be a Scout leader.
Denny Meyer, who lives in New York City, wasn't a Scout, but often tagged along with his older brother to Scout meetings. During college, Meyer, the son of Holocaust refugees, enlisted in the Navy in 1968 "to pay my country back for my family's freedom." After four years, he had quickly advanced to Petty Officer Second Class (E-5), got a job as a civilian with the Department of the Army, and enlisted in the Army Reserve, rising to the rank of Sergeant First Class (E-7). He later worked in international sales and office administration.
Meyer had to pass rigorous background checks to serve in two branches of the Armed Forces, but he can't pass the background checks become a Boy Scout leader because he's gay.
Gregory Bourke is a mainframe computer programmer and analyst in Louisville, Ky. He had been a Scout for almost three years. His 15-year-old son is a Life Scout who has finished most of his requirements to be an Eagle Scout. His 14-year-old daughter is a Girl Scout. He has been a leader in her troop for eight years; he had been an assistant Scoutmaster for five years. Last September, he received a special Legislative Citation from the Kentucky House of representatives honoring him for his community involvement and dedication to Scouting.
Bourke is no longer with the Boy Scouts. His local Council, against strong opposition from his troop and the Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic church, which sponsors both the Girl Scout and Boy Scout troops, ordered him to resign because he's gay, and threatened to pull the church's Scouting charter if Bourke didn't resign. The Girl Scouts, like the 4H Club, the Boys & Girls Clubs of America, and numerous other organizations, has no discriminatory policies, and Bourke's church is pleased he continues as Girl Scouts leader
In contrast, the Boy Scouts have a long history of allowing local councils to discriminate against racial, ethnic, and religious minorities. It wasn't until 1974 that the national organization finally ended racial discrimination. In 1991, with the emergence of a "family values" conservative movement, the Boy Scouts formalized a policy to exclude gays from membership and leadership positions. The existing position is that the BSA believes "homosexual conduct is inconsistent with the requirement in the Scout Oath that a Scout be morally straight and in the Scout Law that a Scout be clean in word and deed, and that homosexuals do not provide a desirable role model for Scouts." Nine years later, the Supreme Court, by a 5–4 vote largely along political lines, said that the Boy Scouts of America was a private organization and had every right to discriminate.
Several Fortune 500 corporations—including Alcoa, Caterpillar, CVS, Dow Chemical, General Electric, General Mills, Intel, Levi Strauss, 3M, UPS, and Verizon—have suspended funding to the BSA.

Diller's Aereo and Ergen's Dish as partners? Dish wants it under wraps.
Posted By Andy Vuong On April 4, 2013 @ 11:47 am In Dish Network,Internet,Tech+,Technology | 1 Comment
Dish Network [3] chairman Charlie Ergen [4] has criticized himself publicly for not inventing Netflix, an Internet streaming service that disrupted the pay-TV business.
The satellite-TV mogul apparently doesn't want to sit on the sidelines as another potential game changer, Barry Diller [5]'s Aereo, rolls out nationally. New York-based Aereo [6], slated to launch in Denver in late summer, allows subscribers to watch live broadcast TV channels via a broadband connection for $8 a month.
In a federal court filing in Colorado this week, Dish seeks to quash subpoenas submitted by broadcasters for details about any discussions the satellite-TV provider may have had with Aereo.
"To the extent that DISH might have internally valued Aereo, assessed its impact on retransmission fees paid to the networks, or contemplated incorporating Aereo technology into DISH products, the documents would be highly confidential and proprietary," Dish said in the filing.
Broadcasters are locked in a legal battle with Aereo, claiming that the company's service violates copyright laws. A federal appeals court this week ruled in favor [7] of Aereo, which doesn't pay fees to broadcasters as part of its service.
Douglas County-based Dish said details about any discussions it may have had with Aereo can be obtained through Aereo.
In conference call with analysts and reporters in February, Ergen was asked whether Dish would have interest in acquiring Aereo.
"I don't think we're going to buy Aereo, but I never say never, right?" Ergen responded.
He added: "I admire what Aereo has done as a disruptor, and we'll wait and see how that legal thing all (plays) out."
Aereo spokeswoman Virginia Lam declined comment Thursday about any discussions it may have had with Dish.
"Aereo is interested in partnerships – whether it's content, device or distribution-related – that make sense and benefit the consumer," Lam said.
Aereo subscribers aren't required to install any equipment for service. The company houses an array of tiny antennas, each about the size of a dime, at a remote warehouse. Each subscriber pays for access to and control over an individual antenna, which is connected to the Internet.
The Wall Street Journal reported this week that Aereo has held partnership discussions [9] with the likes of Dish and AT&T.
Dish's licensing deal with The Walt Disney Co. reportedly expires [10] in September.
In often messy retransmission negotiations, content owners sometimes threaten [11] to black out channels. A partnership with Aereo could allow Dish to offer streaming of those channels to its subscribers without a licensing deal.
Dish is also embroiled in a legal fight with broadcasters over its AutoHop commercial skipping technology as well as the recently introduced Hopper Transfers [12], which allows subscribers to easily zip recorded content to an iPad.
Those features, offered on Dish's award-winning Hopper with Sling set-top box, shows that the company is focused on innovation after the Netflix debacle.
"Netflix is forcing us to think about things like over-the-top video," Ergen said at a conference in Boulder [13] in June. "Why we didn't do Netflix before Netflix did Netflix is an interesting indictment of the CEO at the time. He certainly was asleep at the wheel. … It happens that other people come in and come up with better ideas. You just have to be cognizant of it."
Dish is also the focus of much attention [14] in the telecommunications industry. With plans to launch mobile broadband service, the company said this week it is raising $2.3 billion in debt for "general corporate purposes, which may include wireless and spectrum-related strategic transactions."

geologic, hydrologic, hydraulic, and civil or structural elements of the safety program. Doing so will ensure that the entire program is making design and operational decisions consistent with safety and community priorities for resilience.
The committee has focused largely on the concept of community and stakeholder engagement and the assessment of progress of engagement in advancing community resilience goals. The Maturity Matrix for Assessing Community Engagement can be central to both. Engagement, however, cannot substitute improved dam and levee infrastructure integrity and technical decision making, nor can it substitute adequate resource allocation for said improvements. It can, however enable effective two-way communication coupled with risk-based safety analysis and enable communities to use its resources more effectively to mitigate, prepare for, respond to, and recover and learn from dam and levee failure. The active engagement it encourages may facilitate common understanding of how local events or choices have impacts beyond the local community, and may help communities identify common and conflicting priorities among its local, regional, and even global members. Further, it can inform technical decision making to improve infrastructure integrity as well as strengthen a community's ability to influence policy in positive ways.Many of the principles developed in this report are applicable not only to resilience associated with dam and levee infrastructure but to resilience associated with other types of critical infrastructure, and to disasters in general.

Fresh and Easy For Dinner
Posted by The Frugal Diva on January 13th, 2010
Just when I thought that everything had been done in the way of markets in comes a new kid on the block. A little organic, a little convenience, a little gourmet grocery, and a whole of savings. There are so many wonderful Fresh & Easy products. A bag of frozen turkey meatballs this week for $5.99. Add some tomato sauce, serve over pasta (99 cents this week), and open a bag of salad greens. That's fresh, that's easy.
Now if you want to get really, really easy and still stay really, really fresh. We are talking about around $2.49 per person for lasagna with meat sauce to keep in your freezer. Cheaper then fast food and better for you.
Every week there are 98 cent produce packs. Add a little excitement and use them in your cooking. One week they had onions and red and green peppers. You can julienne slice them, saute, add some capers and olives. Set aside while you pan fry some tilapia and you have a nicoise style topping for your fish. Pick a pack of pears and pair with an interesting cheese for dessert.
Yes I did say they are a little gourmet. Pick up organic teas, fresh juices, fresh baked goods, wine (not at all stores), cheeses, balsamic vinegar along with fresh produce, fish, and meat on your way home. And they have great sauces – Thai Chili Lime, Smokey Barbecue- and a good selection of spices. Even pet food for your pooch. So much good stuff in such a manageable size market.
You can also sign up for the email newsletter where you get weekly updates on specials and coupons. And please remember that all quoted prices are subject to change.
Smaller then a supermarket, more fresh food then a convenience store-this chain is a winner for the Frugal Diva.
Disclaimer: Fresh and Easy occasionally sends The Frugal Diva samples of their products.

fter watching Sun 7/12 show, I have this mment. ENOUGH ALREADY OF DEBBIE. – I want to be able to see the eyes of my teaching chef, and I cannot with her. I want someone not really overweight – That's not her. I want someone with honesty and a caring personality – she is not. I WANT ANYONE BUT DEBBIE.
I agree with the last comment. I will neve watch her(Debbie) show….if she is chosen. She showed a side of her that I always thought was there and it was not so pretty.
I also have Food Network on all day.Everything has been already said as to what I feel about Debbie. She must go. I will Boycott the show.I think Melissa would be a good canidate due to people strugging with bad economic times,she has money saving idea's and is family oriented.Please get rid of Debbie,she is not television material.joanne
I would watch a FN show with either Melissa (preferably) or Jeffrey. Debbie does not meet either FN's ethical reuquirements, or mine. If Debbie is chosen, I as a viewer will totally boycott FN. Rather, I will choose the more varied, non-formatted, programs of PBS on Saturdays. They provide a more authentic, genuine experience of food.
You let Mike go over Debbie? What are you thinking? Debbie, is a bold face liar, and she does not take responsibility for her own actions!! Watch the first show and you will see it. Second, she is no team-player. I would not watch any show that she would host. Please do the right thing and spare me this drama, get rid of her.
I was so furious when Michael was voted out on top of Debbie's lies right under the panel's nose! I am so irritated over Debbie, I use to like her and hoping that she will be the The Next Food Netword Star. It all went down to the drain… In my opinion, I think she deserve to be voted out than Michael. Michael perhaps didn't make his food as good as Debbie because he work his tail out on the bar serving the guest and here come Debbie so busy working on her own tray. If the panelist given Jamesha a chance from kicking out Katie on the episode 4, I believe Michael should have given a chance and let Debbie go! Besides, I am sure she is not going to be the one anyway… I vote for the Mommy Melissa. I think she will definitely inspire a lot of mother especially with little children to cook and watch her on FN.
Amen!hehe I think I get carried away with this Debbie thing…
I think you all goofed in letting Michael go and keeping Debbie. What does she have to do for you juges to get rid of her. Would never watch her if she had a program on tv. This is where my tv is tuned to most of the time but I do change channels when a few of the shows are on .Jeffery is the only one I would watch.
Love the idea of a Mexican/Spanish cooking show but Daisy's is pathetic. Keep the kids out of it. The shreiking voice was at times hard to deal with. Everyone sitting down at the taking 2 bites and throwing all the uneaten food in the sink was almost comical.
I would expect a show like this from Melissa ….. All chaos with no peppers
Love the idea of a Mexican/Spanish cooking show but Daisy's is pathetic.
Linda Nelms on July 16, 2009 at 11:38 amWell the fact that Daisy was "discovered" by Rachael Ray should tell you everything!
Clothing, jitters in front of the camera, outward appearances can be worked with and tweaked as time goes on with the winner. What is inate and more difficult to fix , if not impossible, is honesty and transparency. Debbie appears to lack integrity and a basic sense of fair play. What's even worse is that she seems oblivious when she outright lies when challenged. I would not watch her show if she won.
Jeffrey seems one dimensional and I really don't think his concept of cooking without borders matches how he actually cooks. I wouldn't go out of my way to watch his show. On the other hand, Jamika would have been really great. I love Melissa. She responds well to critical commentary and works so hard to take the judges comments to heart. I enjoy a little of her mania. I'm never bored with her. I get her perspective and I actually think it's time for someone like her. Once upon a time I enjoyed Sara Moulton. There's a place for her style of cooking still today. Too bad the powers that be didn't think so.

Political Animal
Word's just in that the junior senator from Kentucky has signed on to deliver a "Tea Party" response to both the president's SOTU and Marco Rubio's official GOP response.
And before you can say "phony war," the MSM is setting this up as reflecting the yawning gap between the Rubio/Rove "establishment" and the True Conservative tribes—once again showing how no matter what happens to and within the GOP, its "center" keeps getting pulled to the Right.
I don't know what if anything Rubio or Paul will say on international issues; if so they will probably be offering a stark choice between immediate and ultimate war with much of the rest of the world. But on domestic issues, you'll need a crow-bar to pry them apart.
Wonder if he'll know where to focus his gaze, unlike Crazy Shelly (the Girl with the Faraway Eyes) Bachmann
So, any word yet on who will be giving the Progressive response?
Agree with JimR, we need a progressive response as well.
So when the awful day arrives that a GOP president gives the SOTU, will the networks offer the Democrats two responses as well? It would be nice if there was a network with a Socialist bent to provide true balance to what we currently have.
The funny part is that you are paid to write the absurdity that a slimy neoconservative warmonger like Rubio and the libertarian/Taft Republican Paul are alike, even though there are 20 major issues where they flatly disagree, and 10+ major issues where Paul falls well to the left of Obama, and the majority of readers here will be ignorant enough to nod right along.

After the child left, there was quiet. Unnatural but not yet uncomfortable. It had always been lively before, one child filling up all the empty cracks and crevices like glue.
Each day, he walks in from work, shouts a hello, opens the refrigerator. She is there, buttoning her heavy coat. I won't be long, she tells him. She imagines replacing the old wooden door with a revolving one. The old door still has remnants of the glue that held them close. The pencil marks measure the child's growth. The first mark shows the tiny toddler, standing before her first birthday. Hold still, honey, she says, as she feels her soft bird hair underneath the pencil. The last mark, made sometime in her teens, a quick line slightly crooked. She had to stand on tiptoe to draw it.
The house is quiet except for the TV. The dishwasher hums after a quiet dinner. He tells her it's good. She scrapes hers down the garbage disposal. It's cold and dark at seven o'clock. The branches of the giant tree outside the kitchen window scratch against the glass. She hears him calling out the answers to the Jeopardy contestants. He repeats the answers twice. The second time louder than the first. Who is Augustus Caesar? Who is Augustus Caesar?
They can't hear you! she used to tell him. It was a joke between them. Now she closes the door to the den and tries to lose herself in her work. She is writing another chapter. She knows where she is taking her characters, but she worries if she is taking them in the right direction.
In the morning, he is gone by the time she makes coffee. He has left her favorite donut on the counter next to the coffee pot. He has taken last night's garbage out. Silent acts of love. Silent acts of habit. Some of both, she thinks. This evening, he will walk in, they will greet each other and she will walk out. It's the dance they do now that there is no glue.
Time does that.

You succeeded in transporting us into the quiet amid the lone figures partially lit by the flickering tv, anesthetized by muted muffled infrequent sounds and the space reverberating with the remembered energies of the child.

You've done so much here with so little: handing us the ineffable emptiness of January...the dead of winter inside and outside of this woman's heart. So much unsaid yet deeply felt...it all hangs in the frozen air. This is beautiful, sad, unforgettable. Within this airless space, you still managed to take our breath away. Rated and felt.

Dr. David Brailer, chairman of investment firm Health Evolution Partners, is joining the board of directors at Walgreen Co.
Retail News Breaks Archives
DEERFIELD, Ill. – Dr. David Brailer, chairman of investment firm Health Evolution Partners, is joining the board of directors at Walgreen Co.
Walgreens said Wednesday that Brailer, who will serve as an independent director, becomes the board's 11th member.
Brailer has been chairman of Health Evolution Partners since 2006. Before joining the firm, he was appointed by the Bush administration as the first National Health Information Technology Coordinator in 2004. In that role, Brailer was the architect of the nation's effort to bring the health care system into the information age, leading a bipartisan initiative that moved the U.S. health care system toward transparency, quality and efficiency, according to Walgreens.
"David's expertise in advancing health care technology on a national level, as well as his experience in supporting companies through investments that promote major change in the health system, will provide us with valuable insight," Walgreens chairman Alan McNally said in a statement. "This will be extremely important in the years ahead as technology plays an even greater role in the delivery of quality, affordable and accessible health care."
Before his appointment by the Bush administration, Brailer was a senior fellow at the Health Technology Center in San Francisco, a nonprofit research and education organization that provides strategic information and resources to health care organizations about the future impact of technology in health care delivery, Walgreens said. In 1992, he founded CareScience Inc. as a spin-off from The Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania. Under his leadership, CareScience established itself as an early leader in the use of the Internet to share health information and improve the quality of care across the United States.
Prior to 1992, Brailer was with the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and The Wharton School of Business. He founded the health information technology program at The Wharton School Health Management Program, taught health management and economics in the Wharton MBA program and lectured in The Wharton Executive Education program. An M.D., he also was a patient care physician in general medicine and in immune deficiency at the University of Pennsylvania.
"David will be a tremendous resource to our board and our company as we help patients and payers lower health care costs while improving quality, outcomes and transparency through our pharmacy, health and wellness solutions," stated Walgreens president and chief executive officer Greg Wasson.

I'm in love with this mattress. Couldn't be happier. If only the mattress hadn't of gotten lost in shipment and Overstock refused to ship another one until a trace was completed leaving me sleeping on the floor for weeks I would say this was my best purchase ever. The mattress was never found and another was eventually shipped. I recommend placing this mattress on your bed foundation or your platform bed before unwrapping it. It arrives vaccuum packed in a tight roll and once you puncture the plastic it immediately begins to take shape. The mattress is very heavy and once it's unrolled it's very hard to handle. I believe 72 hours is reccomended to let it air out - I was not waiting another day so we slept on it after about 12 hours of letting it air out and it was perfect - no smell. The mattress was quite hard the first night but it has since gotten softer and softer and I have to MAKE myself get out of it.
I have waited to post a review of this mattress as the last memory foam mattress I purchased from overstock did not last more than 2 years.Developed pockets (indentations)where my wife and I slept that would not rebound.Of course it was only $700 so I guess I shouldn't complain. This one is very supportive, very firm, rebounds to original shape very quickly which is the sign of good memory foam.Smell is gone within two days.Need to purchase extra deep pocket sheets( at least 18") as putting on regular size sheets will not work.Price is very good value considering how much most places want for same quality memory foam. This is not a Tempurpedic, but if I get 10 years out of it I will be thrilled.
I originally purchased a comparable mattress through "overnightmattress.com" yet, after weeks of waiting and mumerous phone calls to the merchant I never received the product. They went out of business. Now going through my Credit card company to recoup my money. I then turned to overstock to see what products they had. The sales representative was exceptional (phone) and made it an easy process. The mattress arrived within days of placing the order and I'm loving the bed as I fall asleep like a baby each night. Thanks overstock.
I have lower back pain and this bed helped reduce and almost alleviate all the pain. It is firm, but molds to my body. My wife on the other hand began to have back aches, so it may not be perfect for everyone. I have been sleeping in the bed for about 3 months and love it.
We bought this product after another four year old king-sized memory foam mattress had developed a large ridge between the softer, well-worn sides where my husband and I slept. Our research told us that this is a common result with king-sized memory foam mattresses, so we suspected it may happen again. And it has. The mattress arrived in excellent condition; unrolled well from vaccuum-packed roll and after 24 hrs. was without packaging odor or misshaped. We've now had it 10 months and a slight ridge has begun to form in the center again. It is comfortable for us (we have healthy backs) but it is softer than we'd like it to be and than it originally was. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone with back problems because it seems too soft for that. As much as we love memory foam, it's overpriced and likely to require replacement in 5 years or less. Hopefully not. Pros: strong handles on sides to ease moving/flipping mattress, no motion transfer between people.
very nice mattress oddly firms up a bit after it has a few days to expand. beautiful cover very quality with nice piping , zips off as well made my houseboat a great nights sleeper.
We are very pleased with our new mattress. The quality is excellent, being very well constructed. All told, it is just as it was advertised. It actually arrived a couple of days earlier than we expected.
This is my first memory foam mattress and I will recommend it to all my friends and family if they have problems with there conventional mattress. It took me all these years to finally break down and buy a really comfortable mattress I just wish I would have done this years ago and not waited this long! Great quality at a good price I am glad I did not spend all the extra money on a bigger name brand just paying for all the advertising!!
My wife and I have been debating on replacement beds for a couple years now, especially since we have over used the current double pillow top XXXXXX we currently had. When they say 10 years out of a good bed, that's what it is. Of course we got about 12 years out of this one, flipping and turning it. I was not enthused about buying a bed and spending that cash on something local. I have not been all that interested in Memory Foam either, but one evening I sat down and thumbed through eBay and their stuff which there were some decent mattresses for around $1000. Then I jumped on Overstock and after looking at everything I found this mattress. Still not sure, obviously read the reviews and it seemed as if most were very impressed, so I gambled and just bought the damn thing. This I have to say is just an amazing mattress. Pretty cool how it comes rolled up and air tight. I makes it easy to get up stairs to your room, roll out and let it expand. We game it two days. The smell people are talking about is really not an issue. Its the Foams newness smell and is gone in a day. The mattress lives up to its billing. The quality is just excellent and although we've only been on it a couple weeks, you cannot go wrong with the 20 year manufacture warranty and then purchase Overstocks 10 year that covers outside damage and your good to go with no stress. I weight 220lbs and am 6'3" and my wife is 125lbs and 5' - the response to the mattress after every night is instantly back to original form and firmness. Its a great mattress especially for the money. I can see paying the $XXXX and still being happy but it was half that. My friend just bought a XXXXXXXXXX which has 2 levels of foam for his King. Over $XXXX for it and a 10 year warranty. Its a no brainer, this is a much better bed, has a very well designed over around it. Its a great purchase for the money. If your into Memory Foam, seriously take a look at Spinal Response. I'll probably replace the guest rooms mattress as well with one of these.
Was a little iffy on buying a memory foam mattress having slept on a spring bed my entire life. Boy am I glad I did! Gone are the daily backaches and tired feeling. The memory foam cradles your body and you're off to lala land. Key to this purchase was the amount of gel infused foam. The more gell the less the tendency to leave permanent indentations of your body. Buy it!!!

U.S. Attorney hires two criminal prosecutors for richmond office
RICHMOND, Va. – Neil H. MacBride, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, today announced that he has hired Erik Siebert and Jamie Mickelson as Assistant U.S. Attorneys in the Richmond Division.
"The Richmond Division carries a high caseload and has played a significant role in driving down violent crime in the Commonwealth's capital," said U.S. Attorney MacBride. "Erik and Jamie bring a wealth of experience from their work before becoming prosecutors, including their close knowledge of the court in our District."

Last week Little Big Town posted a message on their Facebook announcing that due to a death in the family they had to cancel their concerts in Riverside, CA (11/28) and Los Angeles, CA (11/29). Nothing was said in that announcement about just who it was who had passed away.
Now we know which family member passed away — Kimberly's brother-in-law Allen Schlapman.
Kimberly posted this sad message on the group's Facebook Friday:
Last Wednesday, Nov 21, my brother-in-law was killed by a drunk driver. He had come to Nashville from Virginia to visit us for Thanksgiving, which is our long-standing family tradition. He is married & has a 9 year old little girl. This is a part of life that one never imagines or plans for. It has been very difficult to accept. Allen Schlapman was an amazing father, husband, brother & son. We will miss him so much. I have been deeply touched by all your well-wishes & prayers. Thank you. God has proven himself faithful to us & has given us great peace amidst this horrible tragedy.Kimberly Schlapman
My heart goes out to Kimberly and the rest of her family.

I am searching for desendents of a Kate or Kathrin Sleight and think that maybe your grandmother was her sister. The only information that i have of Kate is dob 1866 - 1935. She married Walter Turner and they had 6 children, Ernest, Walter, Richard, Albert, Fredick and Doris.I did find a Kathrin Sleight born 25 Jun 1866 in Swineshead and her parents were Richard Lamb Sleight and Eliza Kelley.Im fairly desperate for information on Walter Turner also. cynthia mcpherson

The P300 follows the classic design for compact digital point and shoots, that is to say a rectangular body with softly rounded edges and about the size of a deck of cards. The fixed base of the zoom lens protrudes about 3/8 of an inch from the front of the camera, but the P300 still transports easily in a shirt pocket. Body construction is of metal and composite materials, and the fit and finish seem in keeping with the camera's price point.
Ergonomics and Controls
There is a small patch of rubberized material on the camera back that serves as a thumb rest and a narrow ridge running about halfway up the front of the camera body on the right side that provides a little bit of a gripping point for the middle finger of the right hand. As with most compact digitals, even users with small hands are able to wrap their fingers around the body in various ways to facilitate their grip. The matte black paint finish has a smooth feel, so using the camera with the provided strap is good insurance against an accidental drop.
Controls are simple and straightforward: the camera top houses the lens zoom control, shutter release button, command dial, power on/off switch, mode dial and pop-up flash. The camera back is largely taken up by the 3.0-inch monitor but also includes the dedicated video capture button, playback button, rotary multi selector, menu and delete buttons. The on/off switch is recessed into the top of the camera to the point where it takes a concerted push to power on or off - you're not likely to turn the camera on or off by accident, but don't be surprised if you find yourself having to push the button more than once to achieve your intended purpose.
Manual shooters may find the P300 a bit frustrating when it comes to trying to change major shooting settings on-the-fly. While the camera has external controls for the self-timer, exposure compensation and macro mode, features such as white balance, single or continuous shooting and ISO sensitivity can only be accessed by internal menu.
Menus and Modes
Menus are simple and intuitive in the automatic and scene shooting modes, and only slightly more expansive when shooting manually. For example, in the full auto mode the user can select image size for stills and video capture along with video focus mode, and not much else. Switch to any of the scene shooting modes and you lose the ability to set image size for stills.
In the manual modes a wider variety of user inputs is available: image size, white balance, metering, continuous versus single shot capture, ISO sensitivity, exposure bracketing, autofocus area mode, autofocus mode and flash exposure compensation. What was surprising was the lack of adjustment for sharpness or contrast - the P300 permits adjustment of hue, brightness and vividness - but nothing more. Here's the complete rundown on P300 shooting modes:
The P300 3.0-inch LCD monitor has a 921,000 dot composition and is adjustable for five levels of brightness. If those monitor numbers sound familiar, they are the same size and composition as the monitors on a number of Nikon's top-end DSLRs. The monitor produced a 453 nit peak brightness level and a 755 to 1 contrast ratio in our studio measurements.
While the 453 figure is a bit lower than the 500 we would like as a minimum peak brightness level, the 755:1 contrast ratio is towards the upper end of the desirable range for that value. In practice the P300 monitor was a bit more useful than most compact point-and-shoot cameras in bright outdoor conditions, but could still be difficult under certain light and subject combinations. Monitor coverage is approximately 100%.

Electric flywheel technology developed at the Williams factory in Oxfordshire was chosen by Porsche Motorsport as an alternative to a battery option for the energy storage medium on their 2010 911 GT3 R Hybrid endurance racing car. This car competed at several endurance races in 2010, including the 24 Hours Nürburgring race where it famously led before retiring within the last few hours due to an engine-related failure (a problem unrelated to the hybrid system). In 2011, the GT3 R secured its first victory in the VLN race at the Nordschleiefe.
The Porsche Hybrid is considered to be the first of its kind. A hybrid racing car uncompromised on performance, and one that has shifted public perception on the efficacy of hybrid technology in racing with exciting possibilities for real world application in the future. Indeed Porsche has gone further down the road with its hybrid plans when it announced its latest version; the 918 RSR hybrid concept sportscar with electric flywheel energy storage, at the 2010 Detroit Motorshow.

New Farmers Given Resources Needed to Succeed
Media Contact:
Jennifer Martin, CSREES Staff (202) 720-8188
By Stacy Kish, CSREES Staff
February 28, 2008
The future of Northeast agriculture depends on the next generations of farmers. However, success is hard to achieve as the next generation is faced with unprecedented challenges. The Growing New Farmers (GNF) project established a consortium that supports new farmers in 12 Northeast states-from Maine to West Virginia.
Kathyrn Ruhf and her colleagues at the New England Small Farm Institute raised awareness among service providers by creating programs, products, tools and resources, producing research, promoting supportive public policies and building professional skills. New farmers and service providers can obtain information from the project's Web site. The project's activities address major barriers faced by new farmers in the areas of land access, markets, capital and credit, and knowledge and technical assistance.
The project helps prospective and developing farmers find resources targeted to their needs to help them succeed. This consortium project generated a strong sense of community. The Web site continues to serve as a "resource portal" with over 3,000 visits per month.
The GNF project is the only regional initiative in the United States that provides a professional support network for new farmers. Nearly 200 organizations and agencies in the 12 Northeast states joined the GNF Consortium. Eighty-four percent of the participating organizations and agencies reported that they continue to use the GNF Web site and resources to help their new farmer clients. Resource available include a workbook for selecting market outlets, a decision-making tool for farm start-ups, a learning guide for record keeping, a policy toolkit, a study on financial resources and a CD clearinghouse of materials for new farmers.
Project leaders categorized new farmers by developing a typology to reflect the wide range of diversity in this audience. Workbooks, guides, Web sites, brochures, farmer training programs, targeted lending programs and courses were developed to match each group's learning needs and preferences. In addition, GNF produced a report that highlights the factors barring new farmers from financial aid and land access. GNF also developed a policy tool kit to better translate public policy issues to develop supportive policies for new farmers.
The USDA's Cooperative State Research, Education, and Extension Service (CSREES) funded this research project through the Initiative for Future Agricultural and Food Systems (IFAFS) program. CSREES advances knowledge for agriculture, the environment, human health and well-being, and communities by supporting research, education and extension programs in the Land-Grant University System and other partner organizations.

jk, we're not really closing the blog. But I really have had a religious breakfast experience. Spilt Milk is a fairly new addition to the ever-growing Carnegie landscape, which now boasts no less than 6 places to get a really good breakky, and I'm just going to come out and say that it's the best one. Yes, even better than Huff Bagelry. I know, who am I?
I'm not really sure where to start or how to construct a real sentence. The fit out is darling, with lots of wood and jars and the kinds of things you don't often get in the south-east. It's trendy, but people like me don't feel like they should go back to McDonald's. It's cosy, but you're not sitting in anyone else's lap. It's busy, but you don't have to yell to each other (also I came alone, so I might have frightened people).
Everything on the menu, in the cabinets and in fridges has an animal name. Instead of being something your lame grandmother would do, it's endearing and adorable. For example, you can have a 'Piglet', which is an egg and bacon muffin. Or you can have a 'Baboon', which is banana bread. Or a 'Lizard', which is a macadamia and white chocolate cookie (lizards are pretty big fans of cookies).
The girl next to me had a 'Chameleon', which was apparently formed spontaneously in the kitchen and was just a plate full of salty, eggy goodness. It's not on the menu, but she told me that if you ask nicely, they'll invent something just for you.
You can see why I had to move in.
I looked at the menu for three years before deciding. Everything on it seems carefully chosen and deliberately crafted – there's no Eggs Benedict here. I went with the 'Zebra', which is olive sourdough with onion jam, baked bacon, avocado and ricotta. But I could equally have chosen the 'Donkey': poached eggs, baked bacon, fresh spinach and spiced capsicum aioli on sourdough. Or the 'Sheep': baked eggs in a pan with sundried tomatoes, fresh spinach, fetta and chilli jam.
Jansen, who is the nicest man to have a cafe in recorded history, introduced himself and the barista and asked for my name, which in Melbourne is quite a big deal. Most of the time people just grunt in my general direction and occasionally display outward, blatant disdain. When My New Friend Jansen delivered my food, he immediately declared that my bacon was insufficient and shortly thereafter returned with more bacon.
At Spilt Milk, the bacon comes with a side of bacon.
I am embarrassed to tell you that I'm not usually a fan of bacon. In my mind the rind is kind (whoa poems!) of slimy and I'm not a great one for heaps of salt. But this was a short cut bacon and it tasted honeyed. I loved the fact that it had been baked and not fried – it ended up somewhere between a fry up and a pork belly.
I ate it greedily and licked my fingers at the end.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is how you do a breakfast nook in the south-east!

Tnk1 is a nonreceptor tyrosine kinase cloned from CD34+/Lin-/CD38- hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells. The cDNA predicts a 72-kDa protein containing an NH(2)-terminal kinase, a Src Homology 3 (SH3) domain, and a proline-rich (PR) tail. We generated rabbit antiserum to a GST-Tnk1(SH3) fusion protein. Affinity-purified anti-Tnk1 antibodies specifically recognized a 72-kDa protein in Tnk1-transfected COS-1 cells and cells which express Tnk1 mRNA. Western blot analysis indicated that Tnk1 is expressed in fetal blood cells, but not in any other hematopoietic tissues examined. Tnk1 immunoprecipitated from cell lysates possessed kinase activity and was tyrosine phosphorylated. In binding experiments with a panel of GST-fusion constructs, only GST-PLC-gamma1(SH3) interacted with in vitro translated Tnk1. GST-protein precipitations from cell lysates confirmed that GST-PLC-gamma1(SH3) associated with endogenously expressed Tnk1. Conversely, GST-Tnk1(PR) protein constructs complexed with endogenously expressed PLC-gamma1. The association of Tnk1 with PLC-gamma1 suggests a role for Tnk1 in phospholipid signal transduction.

Article brought to you by: Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)More than eight million Americans are now collecting disability
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
February 6th, 2013 Catholic Online (www.catholic.org) The number of American workers collecting federal disability payments has climbed to yet another record high of 8,830,026 for the month of January. According to newly released data from the Social Security Administration, these figures are up from 8,827,795 in December. LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - February is the 192nd straight month that the number of American workers collecting federal disability payments has increased. The last time the number of Americans collecting disability decreased reaches as far back as January 1997 - and that number of workers taking disability dropped by 249 people, from 4,385,623 in December 1996 to 4,385,374 in January 1997.As the overall number of Americans collecting disability has increased - so did the ratio of full-time workers to disability beneficiaries has decreased. In December 1968, 1,295,428 Americans collected disability and 65,630,000 worked full-time. Thus, there were about 51 Americans working full-time for each person collecting disability at that time. The last time the number of disability beneficiaries declined, in January 1997, 4,385,374 Americans collected disability and 104,900,000 worked full-time. Thus, there were then about 24 Americans working full-time for each person collecting disability. In January 2013, with a record 8,830,026 Americans collecting disability and 115,918,000 working full-time, there were only 13 Americans working full-time for each person collecting disability. In related news, the U.S. missed an opportunity to display global leadership on disability rights on December 4, 2012, as the Senate failed to approve ratification of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. The Senate vote was 61 in favor and 38 opposed, with 66 "yes" votes - two-thirds of the Senate in attendance - needed to consent to ratification. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), a landmark civil rights law enacted by Congress in 1990, was the first major piece of national legislation in the world to address systematically the discrimination, barriers, and challenges faced by people with disabilities. In that legislation, the US set out a vision for empowering people with disabilities to achieve economic self-sufficiency, independent living, full participation, and inclusion and integration into society.

Cas Català
Calvià , Mallorca
Spain 07181
Tel: 34 971 707 744
Concierge.com's insider take:
Reopened in summer 2002 after architect Xavier Claramunt's rethink, this once-famous resort is a good compromise for those who can't quite decide whether they're club-haunting party dogs or pool-hugging chill-meisters—in other words, it's close enough to the burgeoning Palma scene for evening access, yet far enough away for escape. The neoclassical pillars and arcades, rows of wicker armchairs, travertine terraces, and stylish navy-blue infinity pool are all very grown-up—especially since children aren't allowed during the summer. Interiors of polished marble with high-beamed ceilings give a vague Renaissance-palace air that fades from memory once you reach the 29 beige-on-white rooms, with their Anglepoise bedside lamps, perforated wood headboards, and chrome-edged furniture. Pretty bathrooms pair claw-foot tubs and marble floors with steel shelving, but they suffer from Design Syndrome: space and utility sacrificed to good looks. This year the hotel will close from December 1 until February 1, while they add 24 additional rooms designed in a Mallorcan country-house style, with exposed stone walls. Each room will have a private terrace and pool.
