I'm creating an 8-10 track vinyl record of all of my songs about closeness, lucid dreams, affection, and secrets.
About this project
For the last two years I have been carrying around a hand held tape recorder, collecting quotes, outrageous feelings, secrets, and even clips of conversations from across the room. Overtime I have used these recordings as materials to form stories. Because I'm not much of a story teller, I turned these memories, dreams, and secrets into humble melodies with real "heart and soul."
I have been recording all ten of these songs since June of 2010 with a dear friend and producer of mine in order to formally release all of the things that I have kept inside of my head and on that small reel of tape since 2008.
This project is for you. However, in order for the recording process to be completed, I need your help in donating to the mastering of my songs. Unfortunately, mastering is a very long, tedious, and expensive process. In the end, having these songs mastered will create opportunities for you to hear more of my music whether it be on the vinyl record, on cd, or through online access. This album will be the medium which I use to show Seattle what I have been keeping for so long.
I appreciate all of your participation in the efforts of helping me release "White Feathers, White Linens."

Grand Valley to formally dedicate new Robert B. Annis Field Station
Date: August 6, 2013
Grand Valley State University will celebrate the formal dedication of the new Robert B. Annis Field Station with a ceremony and tours for invited guests on August 12.
The event will include remarks from Grand Valley president Thomas J. Haas, R.B. Annis Educational Foundation trustee C. Daniel Yates, Annis Water Resources Institute director Alan Steinman, as well as volunteers, donors, and students.
Grand Valley State University researchers and students have already begun utilizing the facility for important research involving Michigan's freshwater resources and the Great Lakes, thanks to the efforts of more than 230 donors who made the completion of Grand Valley's new Robert B. Annis Field Station possible.
The campaign to support the Robert B. Annis Field Station raised more than $2.35 million in private funds and included gifts from a wide variety of Grand Valley supporters, community members, and those passionate about the health and well-being of Michigan's freshwater resources.
The new Robert B. Annis Field Station offers students and researchers 14,700 square feet of research laboratories, offices, mesocosm tanks, a boat loading bay, and secure storage. The new facility is state of the art, and has dedicated space for year-round research — something that was not possible in the old, unheated facility. The building has been designed and built to meet stringent LEED rating standards by using materials and systems that were selected for their durability, sustainability, energy efficiency, and their ability to decrease long-term maintenance and operations costs.

The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf
Edit CompanyPopular Teas from The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf
See All 42 TeasRecent Tasting Notes
The hubby and I (and our froglet) were whizzing through the Atlanta airport last night when we spied this cafe in an alcove, so we decided to check them out. I didn't get anything, because I was dreadfully overheated, but he ordered this tea. He sweetened it and we dashed, thinking he could stir it later. In a few minutes, as we were approaching the base of an escalator, he stopped at a trash can and took out what looked to be a GIANT teabag full of WAY too much leaf. Seriously, this was enough tea for a large pot, steeped in his maybe 16-oz. to-go cup. On top of that, when we finally had a moment to tend the tea, we realized that the wooden stirrer was not long enough to reach the bottom of the cup (wonderful), so we couldn't even properly dissolve the sugar.
What with the over leafing and the useless sugar sitting in the bottom of the cup, this was undrinkable. A very disappointing experience. I suppose I blame the business more than the tea, but I have to rate it based on something.
There is a Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf store on my way to class so I picked up a Chai Rooibos to try. I guess the tea buying moratorium for this month has a loophole, in that I'm not counting cups of tea I've bought in a store.
So, where to begin on this one… for one I was surprised that a single teabag provided enough flavor for about 16 oz. of hot water. The one strange element in this blend is that it contains licorice. I thought this would make it too sweet, so I didn't add sugar, just soymilk. By the time I got to class I decided it wasn't sweet enough, so I added a sugar in the raw packet. It's not too often I find a tea that has a licorice flavor without having the cloying sweetness of licorice root. Otherwise, this was okay, lots of cinnamon and clove as well but I wouldn't say this stands head and shoulders over other chai rooibos blends I've had. I would probably order it again if I was in the mood for something like this.
Wow, what a day it has been, full of freaks and weirdos. I don't even want to write about it, just glad to be home and there are a lot of strange people coming out in S.F. after 9 pm.
So I went into the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf looking for something to revive me before my class. I asked the guy at the counter for advice about whether to put sweetener in this and he said to add vanilla powder. I thought this was nice, it was in a mesh teabag and definitely had a good strawberry flavor as well as something "cream" like that didn't seem too artificial. I would get this one again if I was out and about but I have a lot of flavored green teas right now and don't need anymore in my house!
I purchased this Vanilla Earl Grey limited edition at Amazon.com, unaware that it had been created specifically for Amazon by The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. There was some sort of promo, and somehow I ended up paying about $8 for six cans. Now they are selling exactly the same thing for $35. It seemed like a good gamble at the time, given my love of Earl Grey cream teas.
So the tea. From appearances, this should be fantastic: full-leaf single estate Ceylon along with an abundance of dried rose petals! There are also chunks of unknown stuff. I wish that I could figure out what they are, since they look like neither bergamot nor vanilla to me. What else could they be?
Artificial flavoring numbers among the ingredients, and unfortunately I find the scent a bit overwhelming. This does not smell like roses or vanilla. It smells like something else. I was hoping that the aroma would evaporate off and I'd be left with a lovely Vanilla Earl Grey. Sadly, the aroma is also a strong flavor.
I have had negative experiences with this company before in the past. They use a lot of artificial ingredients which seem to ruin otherwise good compositions. I'll pass on their deals at Amazon in the future. I drank this glass but did not enjoy it very much. I've been spoiled by so many excellent pure teas of late. The superficial charms of flavored blends are becoming less and less appealing to me, and all the more when they boast black box artificial ingredients which do not add to but detract from the taste of the tea itself.
Fortunately, I love the sleek tins. I'll be peeling off the labels and using them for more noble teas.
Perhaps Jeff Bezos should consider reining in his hyperactive diversification activities. Drones, the Washington Post, $500 million dollar contracts with the CIA, "My Habit"(a social-shopping company), limited edition teas? What next?
Grabbed a loose leaf tin of this at the San Jose store, and am glad I did. It's a mild chai, smooth and mellow, with a hint of vanilla. I might be slightly biased here, as I bought it from a lovely young gent that told me I'd have to come back to try more… just to have my tell him I live in Vancouver, Canada, and that the trip I just returned from might be my last to that specific area.
Flavors: Cardamon, Cinnamon, Clove, Vanilla
Odd how the reviews for this are quite poor, yet I had it iced the other day in-house at one of the San Jose stores, and I really liked it. Couldn't even taste the rooibos, found it sweet even with zero sweetener, and lightly spiced. I'd definitely have more if I were to find myself in that same parking lot in the middle of nowhere again.
Tried another iced tea at the local Coffee Bean. The tea base was rather bitter and didn't have distinguishing qualities, and I'm not sure whether that was due to variations in in-store preparation, or the quality of the tea itself. Or maybe, as the name suggests, it was meant to be imbibed with a heaping amount of sugar. The rose fragrance was distinct, but didn't really improve the experience. At any rate, the Pacific Coast blend is a much better example of a good iced tea from this brand.
Had this while out enjoying the beautiful weather today. It turned out to be one of the best coffeeshop iced teas I've tried. It has a clean, robust, fragrant flavor. There are no additives or other ingredients, and the tea has a natural, unmistakeable fruity sweetness somewhere between peach and muscat, with a touch of smokiness.
Well, I'm at the hotel! They had bags of this so I decided I might as well try it. The coffeemaker in the room isn't what I'm used to so I can't be sure about the temperature, but this isn't too bad for a breakfast tea. There's a strong honey flavor to it that I really like. There's a little bit of bitterness but it's not bad enough to stop me from finishing the cup. Not bad, hotel!
I found this tea to be unexpectedly sweet, with flavors contrary to what you might normally have in a winter themed tea (e.g. no Chai). Personally, I didn't find the spices overpowering. Each spice complimented the other well. If anything, the tea is a little too sweet. Reminds me of a potpourri.
I would not recommend adding milk product to this tea; The spice blend is enough by itself.
Thai oolong tea, Chinese green tea, Ceylon black tea, lemon balm, diced blueberries,
freeze dried blueberries, natural and artificial flavorings
oolong + green + black ? too much.
This was nice and hearty for my breakfast tea while waiting for a flight last week. The bag was a pyramid sachet, which was part of why I thought it might have been originally Harney & Sons. That and they had an Anniversary Blend tea on the menu along with some other names that reminded me of H&S. But then again, there are only so many tea names out there, I suppose. :)
This tea was hearty, bold and tasty. Well worth it.
I had this as my second cup while waiting for my flight home from Vegas last Tuesday. It reminded me quite a bit of the Harney Apricot black but not quite as good. Could always have to do with steeping parameters, etc. since I wasn't making this. :)
It was good. And it was in a sachet rather than a standard bag which was a nice surprise. It was worth the price I paid for it. Not really bitter but not amazingly smooth either. Good flavor.
At my Aunt's place and SHE EXPANDED HER TEA COLLECTION. Now she actually has tea sachets. Aww I'm proud :')
Went for this tea because I wanted Genmaicha right now. I've had Genmaicha before, and I love it so much! This just tastes.. okay compared to the one that I have back home. Dude. The one I have back home I bought in Japan in Epcot so it's legit and nothing can compare.
This is pretty good though so yes yes I like :)
I'm absolutely in LOVE with this tea. I purchased a tin online and I can't get over how fabulous it is!! I love the bite of spice and aroma is Heavenly. I add sugar and a bit of cream to cut down the sometimes bitterness. I wouldn't want to steep for too long as it tends to be a bit bitter if you do. I'm almost done with one tin and I purchased a second tin!! Yum!!

71 Reserve Officers Complete Joint Professional Military Education Coursework
September 2012
Students in the Strategy and War course at the U.S. Naval War College attend a lecture on the Vietnam War. The course is offered to reserve officers to help them fulfill their joint professional military education phase I qualification.

By James E. Brooks,
U.S. Naval War College Public Affairs
Sept. 21, 2012
NEWPORT, R.I. – Seventy-one reserve officers completed a special two-week course at U.S. Naval War College (NWC) on Friday that was designed to help them attain the first phase of joint professional military education (JPME).
Offered by the NWC Operational Support Office, College of Distance Education (CDE) and the Strategy and Policy Department, the 12-day executive development course was designed to educate reserve officers on strategy and war requirements required for JPME Phase I qualifications. This qualification is required by Navy commanders to take command and all Navy officers are encouraged to achieve full Joint Service Officer (JSO) status, which requires completion of JPME Phases I and II, as well as a minimum 24-month tour in a JCS-approved Joint Duty Assignment.
"We offer three core courses every year and they are all very popular with reserve officers of all the military services," said NWC operational support officer, Lt. Cmdr. Dom Pastorin. "The course features both lectures and seminar sessions dealing with a wide range of disciplines such as political science, leadership, psychology, management and anthropology."
A big part of the reserve program is the way NWC CDE supports students with materials before they arrive.
"Reserve officers are provided academic materials digitally from NWC's College of Distance Education and College of Naval Command and Staff curricula," said David Magill, who is the program manager for the CD ROM-based program and professor. "With the completion of this two-week course, reserve officers may enroll in one of our distance education programs to complete their JPME Phase I qualification."
This class contributed to the completion of strategy and war portion of JPME Phase I qualifications.
"Students received nearly 400 pages of reading materials, a CD containing lectures about Sun Tzu and Clausewitz, and a multiple choice exam that they had to complete," said Magill.
The real work began immediately after arriving at the Newport campus. Students were organized into seminars and quickly began studying six topics: Masters of War; the American Revolution; The Pacific War of WWII; the Vietnam War; al-Qaeda and Associated Movements; and War in the 21st Century.
"For each case study, students complete more readings, attend lectures, and participate in seminars led by civilian and military faculty teams from NWC's strategy and policy department," said Cmdr. Bryan Williams, a military strategy and war department professor and coordinator of the course. "These combine to help students understand complex, strategic concepts. Students also write two, six-page essays on selected case studies."
Reserve officers from any of the military services can enroll in the program to attain their JPME Phase I qualifications. According to Pastorin, the qualification can be more challenging given a reserve officer's career demands. Reserve officers can learn more about NWC's JPME opportunities by calling the Operational Support Office at: (401) 841-4068. Information about NWC's Distance Education offering for active duty, reserve, and federal agency employees can be found online at:

Hamilton wants to contribute late
May, 7, 2012
DEERFIELD, Ill. -- As Rip Hamilton struggled to free himself from the horde surrounding him in the corner of the Berto Center Monday afternoon, a reporter asked him if he ever thought it would come down to this. Did the 34-year-old who signed with the Chicago Bulls to win a championship ever think that he would be heading into Game 5 of the first round on the verge of elimination?
"I didn't think a whole lot of stuff would happen," the veteran guard said as he strided away.
In one fell swoop, Hamilton may have encapsulated his season, and that of the Bulls, better than anyone.
[+] Enlarge
Rob Grabowski/US PresswireRip Hamilton has spent most of the fourth quarter on the bench recently.
"Whatever they need me to do, I'm going to do," Hamilton responded in part, deftly pushing the question aside.
In truth, it's killing the veteran that he isn't on the floor late. In the span of just nine days, he's gone from a guy who scored 19 points in Game 1 alongside Rose to a guy who is just 11-for-34 from the field and is now playing without Rose (torn ACL) and Joakim Noah (sprained ankle). It's been a whirlwind of bad luck for the Bulls and Hamilton admits that he would like to be out there to help more if given the chance on Tuesday.
"You do [want to be out there]," Hamilton said. "But it is what it is. Like I said before when I came here, whatever they need me to do, I'm going to do. My job is -- if I'm not on the court in the fourth quarter -- is to cheer for the next guy because I know the next guy would do the same thing for me. It's just one of them things where you got to stay in tune with the game."
For Hamilton, that means figuring out a way to be successful despite the fact that Sixers head coach Doug Collins has switched up the Philadelphia defense on him since Game 1.
"Playoffs is about adjustments," Hamilton said. "So what they try to do is every time I come off a pick and roll, they double. Every time I come off a pin down, they double. When I try to post up they try to bring another guy and double. But it's one of them things that now, for me is like, 'All right, now you got to make plays for your teammates.' And when guys get the ball they got to step up. And that's what the game is about, trusting your teammates."
The question now is: Does Thibodeau have trust in Hamilton? Will he decide to play him down the stretch or stick with Korver in the final few minutes? As usual, Thibodeau wasn't tipping his hand. He did praise the way Hamilton has been playing but that doesn't mean he will decide to stick the veteran back in with the game on the line.
"We'll see how it's going," Thibodeau said. "Depending on how the groups are playing. But if he's playing well ... "
Then Thibodeau did what he does. He made it seem like he had plenty of guys, including Luol Deng, C.J. Watson and Carlos Boozer, to close out games, even when recent history suggests that he doesn't.
"Kyle's closed a lot of games," Thibodeau continued. "Lu's closed a lot of games. C.J, I thought C.J. played very, very well in the second half. Carlos, we've got a number of guys that can make shots."
Whether Bulls fans still believe that is in doubt. What's not is that Hamilton believes his team still has a chance if they stick together. The message he had for his teammates was based around sticking together through the tough times, believing they can still do what they need to do.
"Right now it's win or die," he said. "It's win or go home. It makes the game more challenging, it makes it better, I think, because you're not looking to another game. This has to be the game or if you don't [win], you're going home. It's a situation that we've got to come out and be prepared to play for 48 minutes."
Hamilton is just hoping he can be a factor in those final 12.

The Best Television of 2014
In 2014, we let Russian spies, biker gangs, Silicon Valley techies, and existentially frustrated detectives into our living rooms. As these 25 picks reveal, we had good reasons for doing so.

Disaster and Individualism in 'Game of Thrones'
Game of Thrones trades in everything good and bad about nations and realms for everything good and bad about pure individualism.

The Best Television of 2013
Perhaps the most stunning element of this years list is the lack of domination by the broadcast networks. In fact, there are more streaming and pay cable shows taking top honors than any Big Three offering. The future of the medium is here and now.

Why 'Game of Thrones' Matters
George R.R. Martin's series looks and feels like a historical drama, except the audience doesn't know how the story will turn out. Martin's 'fantasy' is preoccupied with power -- its relations, differentials and dynamics -- because he's interested in the way 'history' is really made.

The Women Behind 'The Throne'
Just what is it that is drawing these new female viewers to a show and genre that has historically been the realm of a largely male audience? It probably has something to do with fact that the women of Game of Thrones are some of the most powerful and dynamic female characters on television right now.

'Game of Thrones': The Wannabe Kings

Cable TV of Thrones -- Why 'Game of Thrones' Does Not Work as a Game
From a marketing standpoint, basing a game off Game of Thrones seems intuitive. The problem that nobody seems to have considered is that the kingdom of Westeros is a miserable place that nobody should want to be in.

TV Highpoints and Lowpoints of 2010-2011... Number 1
Several new series debuted in April 2011 to transform what had been a mediocre season into an exceptional one, including Game of Thrones. AMC, meanwhile, systematically abused three of its great series, calling into question whether the cable network is truly ready for the big time.

I write to speak of a transition at CEJ that begins today. Transitioning can be a time of expectation and excitement, or a time of hesitation and dread. Fortunately the CEJ transition is one of excitement.
Starting July 1, I am beginning a year's sabbatical and leave of absence from CEJ and Barry Law School in order to reflect and write. It is satisfying to leave the work and mission of CEJ in the competent, capable and experienced hands of Jane Goddard, Acting Director, and Rob Williams, CEJ Staff Attorney. In addition, yesterday we added Jane Marsden to our team as CEJ's administrative assistant.
For some time now, I've been hankering to find some down time to study and reflect upon the changes and rapid developments in the field of Earth Jurisprudence and Rights of Nature. CEJ began in 2006 and the Earth jurisprudence movement has burgeoned since then. In 2006 only a handful of folks such as Thomas Berry, Mike Bell, Cormac Cullinan, and Liz Hosken, with her wonderful colleagues from the Gaia Foundation in London, were speaking of the contours and core principles of Earth jurisprudence. I have always considered myself blessed to begin the Center of Earth Jurisprudence under their wise and welcoming mentoring.
Now the Rights of Nature movement is recognized internationally. The formation of the Global Alliance for the Rights of Nature in 2010 and its recent first World Ethics Tribunal on the Rights of Mother Earth held in Ecuador in January demonstrate the significant eco-centric cultural and legal shifts that are emerging across the planet. It seems that many of us are finding our way back into a reciprocal relationship with the natural world. Our indigenous brothers and sisters remain our teachers, reminding us that all other species are our brothers and sisters. We are all of one web.
So, as we move into the fullness of summer in the Northern Hemisphere, I take leave of CEJ and go into a period of networking and then hibernation so I can settle into writing. I look forward to seeing some of you along the way at various CEJ and Earth law events. In February I have the honor of working with Dr. Vandana Shiva and co-teaching a workshop with her and Dr. Mira Shiva, on "Building an Earth Democracy" at the Earth University in Dehradun, India. More information on this international workshop will be posted shortly.
During this sabbatical year, I promise to remain grounded in this work and ask for your prayer and support for the expansion of CEJ and its mission to advocate for legal policies and cultural changes that respect the rights all beings to exist and fulfill their propose.
May this be a time of abundance for each of you as well.

Nice to see that Sidley has so many lawyers with free time to waste on such a deserving cause. Something to remember when the annual rate increase arrives on my desk.
Wouldn't it be nice to see a large firm represent victims for once instead of the convicted perps? Ahh, but that won't win you any pro bono awards from the ACLU or ABA.
Firing squad would be easier.
This whole controversy is such a sick joke. Our supposed 8th Amendment Jurisprudence has been so warped. The constitution clearly says cruel AND unusual. The amendment clearly requires BOTH conditions to be met before a punishment is unlawful, and cruel and painful ARE NOT synonymous. A little pain comes nowhere near cruelty. Cruelty is inflicting pain for the sake of inflicting pain. The arguments against imported sodium thiopental are disgusting and are far more cruel to the victim's families than any pain suffered by the criminal could ever be.
Is this a pro bono case? If not, who's paying the bill? Certainly not the prisoners.
Use methohexital instead of thiopental, problem solved. Thiopental is as a sedating agent in executions; it is not the drug that causes death. What you see here are political statements and agendas not medical fact. The maker of thiopental is sticking it to the FDA not the prison authorities. Same can be said of Sidley and Austin,, this is a big multinational white shoe Wall Street law firm. Why are thet involved with this? PC. They think it will get them something else down the road.
I doubt the FDA was "dragged" anywhere, except perhaps out of lethargy. The anti-death penalty lobby in this Admin most likely received this summons and complaint with open arms.
Whatever happened to life at hard labor? Is that now considered "cruel and unusual" under our "evolving standards of decency?" What about evolving benchmarks of lawlessness? LAHL is tailor-made for would-be Islamist terrorists..
Of course this is going to go nowhere as a legal remedy b/c states are already using drugs Pentobarbital and challenges to the drug thus far have gained no traction. What it does do is highlight the issue of the death penalty. I am certain none of the other commentors work in criminal law. I am also certain that they can't be as ignorant to ethics and moral deceny as they pretend to be. I could give a damn if the US Constitution says cruel AND unusual. When you are willing to blindly follow a document like one commentor suggests you have lost the entire purpose for which it was written. And for the person who says what every happened to life at hard labor. We do still have life at hard labor. I want you to stop and think honestly if you believe our justice system and our government should be in the business of executing its citizens. I want you to honestly think if it is appropriate for 12 jurors to have to sit in a court of LAW and decide the non-legal question of whether a person should live the rest of their life in prison or die. 12 jurors, I might add, who all believe in the death penalty or must be willing to give it. Regarless of the means by which the government causes a convicted killer's death, the death penalty has done nothing to make us a safer society. It has done nothing to curb violence. It has put us on the wrong side of what is decent, humane and enlighted in mankind. It has given us cause for shame.

The First Amendment rights of judges are a hot topic these days.
Plaintiffs' lawyers dodged a bullet last year when the U.S. Supreme Court spared a quarter-century-old precedent that had served as the legal linchpin of the modern investor class-action case. Despite that win, a new report suggests that securities class actions have lost some of their firepower.
In a week in which images of Prophet Muhammad were connected to acts of terror and defiant expressions of freedom, a sculpture of the prophet of Islam inside the U.S. Supreme Court has drawn little notice.
Alan Dershowitz has vowed to slap a defamation suit against the two lawyers who claimed in a court document that Florida financier Jeffrey Epstein arranged sexual liaisons for him with an underage prostitute. Those lawyers have beaten him to the punch.
The salacious allegations against Prince Andrew and Alan Dershowitz that surfaced in a federal lawsuit involving convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein have generated international attention. Drawing less coverage is the lawsuit itself -- a case with the potential to expand the rights of crime victims during federal investigations.

How do you send us the stateroom changes? We don't have a smartphone so we will not have access to email.
We are booked for this cruise and can't wait!! My mother passed away in 2011. She always wanted to do a big family cruise and we never did it. My Dad wants to make sure we do it now. He is treating my sister's family and my family to a cruise of a lifetime!! And, good news....we have added another family member.....my Dad will be bringing his new bride with us!! He will be getting married on 11/24, so this will be their Honeymoon too! Here is our Cast of Characters: Dad - Chuck Dad's new bride - Sandy Me - Ericka Hubby - Frank Son - Josh (22) Daughter - Sophie (9) Sister - Christina BrotherInLaw - Mark Nephew - Chris (20) Niece - Katie (18) Niece - Hannah (8) Nephew - Austin (3) This will be an awesome time of Celebration for us! Oh...and we will be celebrating my Dad's birhtday on the cruise too! We're gonna treat him like a king!
Here's our info for the Fish Extender group (we have 2 staterooms): Stateroom # 8016 Disboards = WeirdGirl Email = Ericka.herrera @ cox.net (remove the spaces...only way I could post.) Family =Herrera Family - Me-Ericka, Husband-Frank, Daughter-Sophie (9) Cater Family - Sister- Christina, Husband- Mark, Daughter-Hannah (8), Son-Austin (3) and Stateroom # 8530 Disboards = WeirdGirl Email = Ericka.herrera @ cox.net Family =Groom and Birthday Boy Chuck, Bride Sandy, Grandson Josh (22), Granddaughter Katie (18), Grandson Chris (20) Hope I did that right! I put my name and e-mail address for both rooms since I'll be organizing our efforts.
Any word on how many we have so far on the Fish Extender List? I'd like to get a jump on the items I'll be making for everyone. Thanks!
The spreadsheet shows 52 people; that does not include the post above yours that would add another 12 people for a total of 64.
Wow!! That's a lot so far and still with a few weeks for more people to join. I'm starting to worry about how many gifts we will have to bring since we are flying!! Do you think we might have to split into 2 groups?
Our first cruise as a family and Nana and Papa are coming also. We are giving this as a Christmas gift to our kids. I am soo excited and a little nervous. We have two daughters 11 & 9 and a son 3. We really want it to be a family vacation and we love spending time with our kids. The thing I am most nervous about is....Are there a lot of Family activities? I know they have a lot for kids, but wasn't sure about the entire family???? Thanks for the info!
There are a ton of family activities! In your Navigator, the guide you get every night detailing what activities there are on the ship for the next day, they categorize them by who can participate. Family, or teens or adults only, etc...so you know ahead of time so you can plan your day. Most port adventures are for families too. There is even a family beach on Castaway Cay to enjoy the beach together! My husband and I are the same way with our two boys. We would rather spend time with them, but trust me, knowing they are in good hands in the kids' clubs does give you those moments to decompress and do things with your spouse or your adult family members...and you don't have to worry about the kids being bored...you'll probably have to drag them out of the clubs kicking and screaming! lol (Well, you know, in a good way. )
This is our first cruise, so could someone help me with lingo....what is dd ds and the other initials...sorry for being clueless! Also, maybe interested in the fish extender....
I believe the letters stand for people in your family. dw - dear wife, dh - dear husband, ds - dear son, dd - dear daughter, dn - dear niece, etc.
Hello all!! We just booked this cruise today. My mom and I are doing a mother/daughter trip and we're pretty excited. My mom has never cruised and I have only been on one cruise (not Disney) this past September, so it'll be the first Disney cruise for both of us! We would love to join the FE group, so here is our info: Stateroom: ??? VGT Disboards: HippoHappy Email: tara678643 @yahoo .com (remove the spaces) Family: Myself and my Mom(Patty)! Can't wait!! Tara
Wow! It's been a hectic week this week. We made the 550 mile drive to my folks house on Wednesday. Will be in Alabama thru Thanksgiving. I happened to check-in on our meet thread and WHAM! We're growing! Woot! I got the spreadsheet updated with our newest additions and corrections. Everyone keep an eye on the sheet and make sure I have your info correct. Gotcha added! I'll shoot you an email here in a few minutes with the link to the Google document so you can look the list over. Welcome aboard! Lots of new additions! We're up to 20 staterooms with 70 people! I think this is the biggest FE I've been part of yet! I definitely feel your concerns but not so much about the weight/baggage since we live so close to the port. I'm looking at overall cost. I wonder if you can box up your FE stuff and ship it down? I've done it at Port Canaveral twice. Not sure who you'd send to for the Galveston port. Hhhmmm...we can check into that. Definitely if/when folks think it's time to split we can do that. Y'all tell me. I've only been part of 2 FEs. This is my first time as list-keeper. Got you added to the list also. I'll send you the email with the link to the Google document as well. Be sure to let me know when your room assignment comes in so we can get your stateroom number listed. Welcome aboard!
Whatever everyone decides to do with regards to the FE list is fine with us. I'm kind of afraid to ship a box down there for fear it won't get there in time and also because of the cost to do so. . We are now rethinking our gift and will just bring something smaller. Thx!
i am Kris..first time cruiser. my husband and my two boys ages 12 and 8 are coming. we have friends coming as well with a 10 yr old boy and 12 yr old girl. i know that the kids sail free rooms seem to be gone on this sailing. would they cancel if not enough people book? also, do any of you happen to be homeschoolers?
We're homeschoolers! We've got two boys, 16 & 15 years old, in 9th & 10th grades. This is only our 3rd year homeschooling but we wouldn't have it any other way now. It's been an incredible journey. We love it. The "gifts" are part of the Fish Extender Exchange. Basically, outside the door of each stateroom there's a decorative metal fish that the cruise cast use to deliver any written materials to you such as confirmations for excursions, etc. You can also leave messages for other people in other staterooms by tucking a note into the "fish". Well, some time back someone on a Disboards cruise group made a hanging pocket organizer that they hung from the metal fish...hence the name "Fish Extender". It extends the function of the fish. LOL! A sort of gift exchange, kind of like a Secret Santa, was devised and it became a fun thing to leave each other little surprises or gifts. Here's some links to help with the explanation: http://www.disboards.com/showpost.php?p=33184281&postcount=2 http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1219607 The FE gifts can be anything as long as it fits. A lot of people really enjoy making little crafts and things to give. Some people do care packs of little items that might be useful on the cruise. Some people leave candy or other pre-packaged treats. Another fun spin is to give little gifts or trinkets that are representative of where you're from. The gift(s) can be anything. Here's a link to give you some ideas of homemade FE gifts: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2907032 There's really no set rules. You can do as much or as little as you'd like. You can do a single gift for the entire stateroom or individual gifts or both. You can deliver your gifts all at the same time or make more than one round to spread out your gift giving. It's up to you. Basically, if you want to participate you give the FE List keeper (me! ) your information. I'd need your stateroom number, Disboards name, email address, and list of occupants for your stateroom. With kids you need to mention what gender & age for each so girls can get girl gifts, boys get boy gifts, and everything is age appropriate. I'm populating a spreadsheet with all the participants' info. We will be closing the list to new additions on December 2nd to give the participants time to finish prepping their gifts for the cruise with a firm headcount. Next, you'd need to think about making or buying a fish extender. You can look on Etsy & Ebay with the keywords "Fish Extender" and turn up all sorts of stuff. There's also threads here on Disboards to help you make one. There's no-sew options....including a duct tape design! Awesome! Get an idea of what gifts you want to give and get your gifts all ready for cruising. Be sure to print yourself a copy of the FE List before you leave home. You'll need that to know where to go and what to leave in each Fish Extender. Also, once onboard the ship, I generally try to wait until after the 1st dinner seating on the first night to get started making deliveries. Oftentimes during boarding stateroom numbers can change. As the list keeper it'll be my job to make sure any stateroom number changes that took place are distributed to everyone else on the list so they don't go to the wrong staterooms. And that's it. Place your fish extender out on your fish and have fun checking the pockets whenever you go in or out your door. It's fun! Let me know if you decide to participate in the FE Exchange. Again, we'll be closing the list to new additions on December 2nd. For your other questions, I'm not exactly sure what you were asking about the Kids Sail Free rooms on our cruise. Do you mean will they offer more rooms on the cruise with that discount? That I don't know. I don't think they'd cancel the cruise altogether for low bookings. But, again, not sure if that's what you were wanting to know.
The 2 times I shipped a box to myself on the Dream out of Port Canaveral I sent 12x12x12 boxes via USPS Priority. I shipped them like 8 days before sailing to give some extra time for them to arrive. I want to say the shipping was somewhere around $20 each time. It's hard to remember. You can always do some flat rate boxes, too. Not going to lie, both times I was a wreck until the boxes were in my hands in our stateroom. I had plenty of worst-case thoughts of having nothing to distribute to the others in the group. Or a fish extender to hang since I put that in our box to ship. LOL! If you want to ship something to me a week or 2 ahead of time I can bring it to you the night before we sail or try to coordinate to meet you at the port for embarkation. We live just 20 minutes from the port. What's another box or 2 in the trunk?
Talked to my TA/friend a little today about the FE List and when one should split. She said it's usually up to the people on the list when to do it. She also went on to say that she was part of a group that split once into 2 groups of 12 staterooms. She found that one to be kind of a dud in the end. Her favorite was the cruise she was on that had 150 staterooms on 1 list. She said that one was really cool because even tho the gifts might not have been as specialized or pricey but there was such a volume that every time they passed their FE it was spilling over with goodies. I'll leave it up to all of y'all, tho. Lemme know!
Thank you so much for the offer. You're so sweet. I talked to my husband and we decided to just go for the gift that will take less room. Thank you again though!!

Coast Guard:
Portfolio Management Approach Needed to Improve Major Acquisition Outcomes

What GAO Found
The planned cost and schedule of the Coast Guard's portfolio of major acquisitions is unknown because of outdated acquisition program baselines and uncertainty surrounding affordability. The Coast Guard's approved baselines, which reflect cost and schedule estimates, indicate the estimated total acquisition cost of Coast Guard major acquisitions could be as much as $35.3 billion--an increase of approximately 41 percent over the original baselines. However, the approved baselines for 10 of 16 programs do not reflect current cost and schedule plans because programs have breached the cost or schedule estimates in those baselines, changed in scope, or do not expect to receive funding to execute baselines as planned. Furthermore, a continued mismatch between resources needed to support all approved baselines and expected funding levels has required the Coast Guard to make decisions about which programs to fund and which programs not to fund as part of its annual budget process. Both DHS and the Coast Guard have acknowledged this resource challenge, but efforts to address this challenge have not yet resulted in a clear strategy for moving forward.
The Coast Guard has taken steps through its requirements process--a process that takes mission needs and converts them to specific capabilities--to address affordability, but additional efforts are required. For example, in an effort to consider affordability, the Coast Guard made some capability trade-offs when developing requirements for its largest acquisition, the Offshore Patrol Cutter. But whether the cutter ultimately will be affordable depends on some key assumptions in the cost estimate that are subject to change. At the fleet level, the Coast Guard completed two efforts to reassess what mix of assets it requires to meet mission needs, but neither effort used realistic fiscal constraints or considered reducing the number of assets being pursued. The mix of assets the Coast Guard is acquiring is based upon needs identified in 2005, but the Coast Guard may not be on a path to meet these needs and it has not re-examined the portfolio in light of affordability.
The Coast Guard has established an acquisition governance framework that includes the following cross-directorate teams: the Executive Oversight Council, the Systems Integration Team, and Resource Councils. The Executive Oversight Council--composed of admirals and senior executives--is well-positioned to delegate tasks to the other teams or obtain information as needed to assist in managing acquisitions. This Council has been active in meeting to discuss individual acquisitions; however, it has not met to discuss the portfolio as a whole. Coast Guard officials told us it manages portfolio affordability through the budget process. GAO's best practices work has found that successful commercial companies assess product investments collectively from an enterprise level, rather than as independent and unrelated initiatives. The Coast Guard's current approach of relying on the annual budget process to manage portfolio affordability involves immediate trade-offs but does not provide the best environment to make decisions to develop a balanced long-term portfolio.
Why GAO Did This Study
The Coast Guard is in the process of acquiring a multi-billion dollar portfolio of systems intended to conduct missions that range from marine safety to defense readiness. GAO has reported extensively on the Coast Guard's significant acquisition challenges, including those of its former Deepwater program, as well as areas in which it has strengthened its acquisition management capabilities. For this report, GAO assessed (1) the planned cost and schedule of the Coast Guard's portfolio of major acquisitions; (2) the steps the Coast Guard has recently taken to develop an affordable portfolio through its requirements process; and (3) the extent to which the Coast Guard is using cross-directorate teams to provide oversight and inform acquisition decisions. To conduct this work, GAO reviewed the Coast Guard's Major Systems Acquisition Manual, acquisition program baselines, capital investment plans, fleet mix analyses, and cross-directorate teams' charters and meeting documentation, and interviewed relevant Coast Guard and DHS officials.
What GAO Recommends
GAO recommends that the Commandant of the Coast Guard conduct a comprehensive portfolio review to develop revised acquisition program baselines and identify the Executive Oversight Council as the governing body to oversee acquisitions with a portfolio management approach to help ensure the Coast Guard acquires a balanced mix of assets. DHS concurred with both recommendations and noted planned actions to address the recommendations.

Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Open
Comments: In providing comments on this report, the agency concurred with this recommendation. However, as we found in June 2014, efforts are underway to address this issue, but, so far, these efforts have not led to the significant trade-off decisions needed to improve the affordability of the Coast Guard's portfolio. For example: (1) OMB officials told us that there has been little progress in efforts to identify the trade-offs that would make the recapitalization portfolio more affordable, (2) DHS has conducted two annual Coast Guard acquisition portfolio reviews, but according to DHS program reviewers, the most recent review, scheduled for September 2013, was cancelled as a result of the lapse in federal government appropriations, and (3) the Coast Guard has yet to document how this new process will work and it is not clear who in the Coast Guard has the authority to make trade-off decisions.
Recommendation: To help the Coast Guard create stability in the acquisition process and provide decision makers, including DHS, Office of Management and Budget, and Congress, with current information to make decisions about budgets, the Commandant of the Coast Guard should conduct a comprehensive portfolio review to develop revised baselines that reflect acquisition priorities as well as realistic funding scenarios.
Agency Affected: Department of Homeland Security: United States Coast Guard
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: In their comments on this report the agency concurred with our recommendation. In October 2012 the Coast Guard revised the Executive Oversight Council charter, designating it as the governing body to assess and oversee acquisitions collectively as a portfolio. In addition to individual program meetings, the charter indicates that the Executive Oversight Council will conduct an annual portfolio review to ensure that the Coast Guard is acquiring a balanced and affordable mix of assets.
Recommendation: To strengthen the Coast Guard's acquisition governance framework and better prepare the Coast Guard in a constrained fiscal environment, the Commandant of the Coast Guard should identify the Executive Oversight Council as the governing body to oversee the Coast Guard's acquisition enterprise with a portfolio management approach. The Executive Oversight Council should supplement individual program reviews with portfolio-wide reviews to make performance and affordability trade-off decisions that will help ensure the Coast Guard is acquiring a balanced portfolio to meet mission needs, given the Coast Guard is not currently on a path to achieve several capabilities identified in the 2005 Mission Need Statement.

Photos Of Fender Flares
I'm looking to purchase a set of fender flares. I'd like some help in picking what too buy. Any help would be appreciated. Tires are out about 1.5" past fender.
http://ramforumz.com/picture.php?alb...pictureid=8043 |
OEM flares would look best on your truck IMO. They would give you the perfect amount of coverage without tucking the tires too far underneath them. It will just be a nice clean look.
Here's what they look like on my 3500: http://i1311.photobucket.com/albums/...33500196_n.jpg http://i1311.photobucket.com/albums/...54576380_n.jpg There's more pictures in my build thread linked in my signature below if you're want to see more angles. |
x2 on oem flares.
Ordered OEM style flares yesterday. Hoping they will be here Wednesday in time to get them on for my trip to North Carolina on Friday. Now I'm debating flat black or paint to match. I'm leaning towards paint to match. I'd still like to see more pictures of trucks with flares. I'll post mine once there installed.:smileup:
http://ramforumz.com/picture.php?alb...pictureid=8043 |
Definitely paint to match. It completes the look and looks much better IMO. Leaving them flat black just looks cheap....
I finally got them on. I had a friend of mine paint them to match and I think you were right Brandon. It does look better than leaving them flat. I took off my nerf bars and am also going to paint them to match.

The nose is of good body and rather sweet. There are notes of cocoa and spice, dried peels and mixed nuts with notes of crème de cacao with a little winter spice and fruitcake. The palate is quite full and rich. There are notes of winter spice, a solid dried fruit note with a little buttery toffee and honey, a touch of sherried oak. The finish is long and silken with notes of salty butter and sherry.
