Debut solo album from multi-instrumentalist songwriter Stephen Selman. Read more
Debut solo album from multi-instrumentalist songwriter Stephen Selman.
About this project
I couldn't be more excited to announce that I'll be recording my first full-length solo album this August, 2012.
For two weeks, I'm relocating myself and my recording equipment to a house in the town of Aiken, South Carolina to be alone and make this record.
I'll be recording the entire project on a Tascam 424 MkIII 4-track tape machine. The sound is wonderful and it's the most fun I've had recording in a long time. See the above video to hear a couple early demos.
To bring this album into the world as I envision it happening, however, I earnestly need your financial help. Though I am recording this album on my own equipment, with my own two hands on every instrument, this will still be a costly endeavor. Your contribution will pay for the following:
Mastering Studio & Engineer
Vinyl Record Pressing
Web Development
The amount I'm asking for is the bare minimum I need to make this record a reality. Any funds beyond this amount will go towards promoting the album to the best of my ability. Together, we can give this project a fighting chance to be heard.
I'll be providing updates as the project develops, with some special goodies for contributors. I want you to know what your funding makes possible.
Thank you so much for being a part of this. Please forward this to anyone you believe may be interested and able to help.
Forever in your debt and grateful for it,
Stephen Craig Selman

As you can see below this person knows Palin on a first name bases and lives in Wasilla. It was sent to my wife,and others who know the person how wrote it. It can be verified on snopps. It gives people an idea about who Sarah Palin is from one of the residents of Wasilla. I read most of it it doesn't seem partisan.it just describes what shes like,and how she operated as Mayor. This is part 1. Part 2 is the "Beef" c ABOUT SARAH PALIN by Anne Kilkenny I am a resident of Wasilla, Alaska. I have known Sarah since 1992. Everyone here knows Sarah, so it is nothing special to say we are on a first-name basis. Our children have attended the same schools. Her father was my child's favorite substitute teacher. I also am on a first name basis with her parents and mother-in-law. I attended more City Council meetings during her administration than about 99% of the residents of the city. She is enormously popular; in every way she's like the most popular girl in middle school. Even men who think she is a poor choice and won't vote for her can't quit smiling when talking about her because she is a "babe". It is astonishing and almost scary how well she can keep a secret. She kept her most recent pregnancy a secret from her children and parents for seven months. She is "pro-life". She recently gave birth to a Down's syndrome baby. There is no cover-up involved, here; Trig is her baby. She is energetic and hardworking. She regularly worked out at the gym. She is savvy. She doesn't take positions; she just "puts things out there" and if they prove to be popular, then she takes credit. Her husband works a union job on the North Slope for BP and is a champion snowmobile racer. Todd Palin's kind of job is highly sought-after because of the schedule and high pay. He arranges his work schedule so he can fish for salmon in Bristol Bay for a month or so in summer, but by no stretch of the imagination is fishing their major source of income. Nor has her life-style ever been anything like that of native Alaskans. Sarah and her whole family are avid hunters. She's smart. Her experience is as mayor of a city with a population of about 5,000 (at the time), and less than 2 years as governor of a state with about 670,000 residents. During her mayoral administration most of the actual work of running this small city was turned over to an administrator. She had been pushed to hire this administrator by party power-brokers after she had gotten herself into some trouble over precipitous firings which had given rise to a recall campaign. Sarah campaigned in Wasilla as a "fiscal conservative". During her 6 years as Mayor, she increased general government expenditures by over 33%. During those same 6 years the amount of taxes collected by the City increased by 38%. This was during a period of low inflation (1996-2002). She reduced progressive property taxes and increased a regressive sales tax which taxed even food. The tax cuts that she promoted benefited large corporate property owners way more than they benefited residents. The huge increases in tax revenues during her mayoral administration weren't enough to fund everything on her wish list though, borrowed money was needed, too. She inherited a city with zero debt, but left it with indebtedness of over $22 million. What did Mayor Palin encourage the voters to borrow money for? Was it the infrastructure that she said she supported? The sewage treatment plant that the city lacked? or a new library? No. $1m for a park. $15m-plus for construction of a multi-use sports complex which she rushed through to build on a piece of property that the City didn't even have clear title to, that was still in litigation 7 yrs later--to the delight of the lawyers involved! The sports complex itself is a nice addition to the community but a huge money pit, not the profit-generator she claimed it would be. She also supported bonds for $5.5m for road projects that could have been done in 5-7 yrs without any borrowing. While Mayor, City Hall was extensively remodeled and her office redecorated more than once. These are small numbers, but Wasilla is a very small city. As an oil producer, the high price of oil has created a budget surplus in Alaska. Rather than invest this surplus in technology that will make us energy independent and increase efficiency, as Governor she proposed distribution of this surplus to every individual in the state. In this time of record state revenues and budget surpluses, she recommended that the state borrow/bond for road projects, even while she proposed distribution of surplus state revenues: spend today's surplus, borrow for needs. She's not very tolerant of divergent opinions or open to outside ideas or compromise. As Mayor, she fought ideas that weren't generated by her or her staff. Ideas weren't evaluated on their merits, but on the basis of who proposed them. While Sarah was Mayor of Wasilla she tried to fire our highly respected City Librarian because the Librarian refused to consider removing from the library some books that Sarah wanted removed. City residents rallied to the defense of the City Librarian and against Palin's attempt at out-and-out censorship, so Palin backed down and withdrew her termination letter. People who fought her attempt to oust the Librarian are on her enemies list to this day. Sarah complained about the "old boy's club" when she first ran for Mayor, so what did she bring Wasilla? A new set of "old boys". Palin fired most of the experienced staff she inherited. At the City and as Governor she hired or elevated new, inexperienced, obscure people, creating a staff totally dependent on her for their jobs and eternally grateful and fiercely loyal--loyal to the point of abusing their power to further her personal agenda, as she has acknowledged happened in the case of pressuring the State's top cop (see below). As Mayor, Sarah fired Wasilla's Police Chief because he "intimidated" her, she told the press. As Governor, her recent firing of Alaska's top cop has the ring of familiarity about it. He served at her pleasure and she had every legal right to fire him, but it's pretty clear that an important factor in her decision to fire him was because he wouldn't fire her sister's ex-husband, a State Trooper. Under investigation for abuse of power, she has had to admit that more than 2 dozen contacts were made between her staff and family to the person that she later fired, pressuring him to fire her ex-brother-in-law. She tried to replace the man she fired with a man who she knew had been reprimanded for sexual harassment; when this caused a public furor, she withdrew her support. She has bitten the hand of every person who extended theirs to her in help. The City Council person who personally escorted her around town introducing her to voters when she first ran for Wasilla City Council became one of her first targets when she was later elected Mayor. She abruptly fired her loyal City Administrator; even people who didn't like the guy were stunned by this ruthlessness. Fear of retribution has kept all of these people from saying anything publicly about her. When then-Governor Murkowski was handing out political plums, Sarah got the best, Chair of the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission: one of the few jobs not in Juneau and one of the best paid. She had no background in oil & gas issues. Within months of scoring this great job which paid $122,400/yr, she was complaining in the press about the high salary. I was told that she hated that job: the commute, the structured hours, the work. Sarah became aware that a member of this Commission (who was also the State Chair of the Republican Party) engaged in unethical behavior on the job. In a gutsy move which some undoubtedly cautioned her could be political suicide, Sarah solved all her problems in one fell swoop: got out of the job she hated and garnered gobs of media attention as the patron saint of ethics and as a gutsy fighter against the "old boys' club" when she dramatically quit, exposing this man's ethics violations (for which he was fined). As Mayor, she had her hand stuck out as far as anyone for pork from Senator Ted Stevens. Lately, she has castigated his pork-barrel politics and publicly humiliated him. She only opposed the "bridge to nowhere" after it became clear that it would be unwise not to. As....
Which just proves why Sarah Palin was voted the "most popular" governor in America. (Crybabies don't bother her!!) //
Old and verified. Name me one person that does not have a critic...that has not pissed one other person off or that has different point of views. Next.
AAH you boys are definetly scared. If You read what i said i just posted the letter no comment. It was up to the reader to come up with their own conclusion about it. To me most of it is old news,but it does give an insight as to what Palin is really about. She sounds like a meglomaniac to me.
You are naive to think any politician is loved by everyone. They are driven people ... Obama is a great example because he started at the bottom and look where he is now. If your looking for a perfect candidate then keep on looking. Palin would not be govenor of Alaska if she was only a soccer mom ... this woman is driven to excel as her debate showed. Good luck trying to pin meglomaniac on Palin ... Obama is the messiah in that regard. I'm amused at all the palin stories as she is merely the VP candidate. If she was as lame as the left says the stories would have gone away after 2-3 weeks. As to the scared comment .. .really there is very little to be scared about. There is little that seperates mcCain and Obama. Though their campaigns appear different that is just fluff for the electorate ... as with all candidates they are lucky to do 1/4 of what they say they will. Don't forget McCain is a liberal also ... there is nothing to be scared about at all.
If you are so confident about McCain/Palin why do I have to wade through so many pro Palin anti Jobama THREADS put up each day by 5-6 people. The only one that does that on the Dem. side on a regular is Patters,maybe one other. I don't start any,and its only been a few weeks since I started posting here again because I got tired of reading the damn RT. wing distortion threads. As far as Megalomaniac Palin fits the description much better than Obama from what I've read,seen and heard. The reason the Left is so obsessed with her is that there were plenty of much more qualified conservative women McCain could have picked,instead he picks someone that if the country fell into her hands ...well put it this way I would probably leave the country. In her first interview when asked about going to war with Russia over some Eastern Europian country she said yes if we they were in Nato,or a similar pact. I have never ever heard a politician say something as absurd as that. There is no defending this pick,she's way over her head and its more and more obvious to most people. That quasi debate the other night didn't change what she had said before when the answers weren't scripted out for her. OK I'll call he a megalomaniac in traning.
Sacred of what exactly? She has 85% approval rating that leaves 15% of dems who don't like her...BFD Get back to us when her links to unrepentant terrorist are uncovered.
Didn't they send a team of lawyers up to AK to dig up dirt. What have they found in their 5 weeks of digging? Unlike much of the info being suppressed about Obama, if there was anything we would have heard about it by now. And ROFL about Patters and maybe one other making partisan thread. Maybe I'll link you a few started by some of your left leaning compatriots. The main reason I post them is to combat (read payback) all the partisan thread from the left. It's funny how perspective is, to you it seems that the right is the only one being partisan. I see both sides doing it. Yes, we have some crazy righties, I think it balances some of the crazy lefities. Most of us seem to be more centrists. That's good. We should be mindful of what we say sometimes. Sometimes the minority has the loudest voice, I'll try and keep that in mind myself. What I have been doing or at least trying to do is to just ignore the way out there threads. Let them just DIE the death they deserve. Maybe if more of us centrists on both sides did that they would just go away. Maybe not, it's both fun and frustrating at the same time. I try and behave but sometimes...I JUST CAN'T LOL. Anyway, I'm rambling...
I read lots of distortion stories ... I don't post those. I only post the stories that link Obama with people who have criminal and terrorist connections. Stories where Obama received favors most people would never see. I could post distortions all day long if i wanted as could the left.
Okay, about the "approval rating" business in Alaska - I never read the 85% claim, though I have read the 80% claim. By the same token W has a 70 or whatever it was two weeks after 9/11. adn.com | Alaska Politics Blog : Ivan Moore: Palin remains popular in Alaska but not like before She's currently down to 68, and her numbers have "cratered" among people other than her base. As to this notion that people are "scared" of Sarah Palin, she's got two kinds of views, nonexistent and repugnant (in the case of the imperial vice presidency ramp-up.) But I do like her being in this race. She is a constant flank that McCain has to cover, distorting his policy positions at will, claiming to be the lead on the ticket, whatever. And she's pretty much denuded the McCain campaign of his whole "experience" mantra. He's painted himself into a corner, and now has nothing left but the hate ads, the guilt by association routine, whatever story they can cook up to paint Obama as a scary monster. You guys seem fixated on fear. I suppose that's what drives the conservative world view, so it's hard to understand other emotions, or for that matter the possibility of analytical reason. It's fear and hate at the bottom of your worldviews, from everything I see on here. And you don't understand it -- or don't believe it -- when others are guided by something else. Palin's bad for the country, because she is not very bright. I and many others find her appeals to voters insulting, because she treats prospective voters like idiots too... and there's nothing more irritating than being talked down to by the dumbest one in the room. I could probably point to the abuse of power issue too, but let's wait for the troopergate hearings to close the book on that one, shall we? PFnV
Obama in the last few weeks has done nothing but attack McCain by telling America what a McCain presidency will be like. How can you make that statement and not see the hypocrisy of it. Both campaigns have been playing the fear card. Hillary and Obama played the fear card in the primary ... as did Joe Biden or did you forget? Please with the fear card ... that's shallow and empty.

With all of this new technology and high tech apps comes the need for personal information about you so that you get the most from the app. Unfortunately, not all apps are actually who or what they claim to be and can contain malware that can be damaging.
Malware can be embedded into an app that can cause viruses on cell phones. The malware in these mobile apps can actually wipe data from your phone, steal your personal information, and even dial or text numbers that can rack up your cell phone bill without you even knowing. If the app happens to have spyware attached, it can even listen to your conversations; determine your location, read your private texts and emails, and more.
So how can you protect yourself from viruses on cell phones? Just as you would protect your computers with anti-virus software, there is virus protection that is specifically made for your smartphone that can be downloaded as well. You can also avoid viruses on cell phones by only using reputable apps that are known to be safe and free from viruses.
Now that you have the facts, you are tech savvy enough to know that you should be asking not only does my computer have a virus, but does my smartphone have one, too? Take the necessary precautions to protect your computer and smartphone and you can avoid the headaches associated with viruses on your electronic devices for good and have peace of mind knowing your personal information is safe and sound.

Ring the Wedding Bells! Five Miami Venues for Same-Sex Weddings
Miami's never been closer to having same-sex marriages legalized. Over the course of a few weeks, three Florida judges, including Miami-Dade Circuit Judge Sarah Zabel, have struck down the ban on gay marriage. Judge Zabel stated that the ban "offends basic human dignity" and violates the promise the 14th Amendment gives of equal protection under the law. via MissSarahCake/Etsy
With legalized same-sex marriage making strides, some couples have probably already started planning their dream weddings. And we predict that most Miami wedding venues will be just as happy to host legal gay weddings as they are to host more state-unsanctioned declarations of eternal love between same-sex couples. But some have more cred with the LGBT community than others.
But if you're in the dark as to where to start on your wedding planning journey, here are five gay and lesbian-friendly suggestions.
5. The Carlyle HotelPhoto by Marit and Toomas Hinnosaur
This location has a ton of history as an Art Deco marvel, but it's more famous from the 1996 comedy The Birdcage. The Carlyle was used as the titular drag club owned by Robin Williams' Armand Goldman and his partner (and star of The Birdcage's drag revue) Albert, played by Nathan Lane.
The Birdcage is one of the many films that the hotel has been featured in. Bad Boys 2, Random Hearts and the classic gangster film Scarface have also been filmed on the premises.
But apart from its film history, The Carlyle is a part of Miami Beach's living art history. The hotel was built in 1939 by legendary architecture firm Kiehnel and Elliot, and is part of Miami Beach's collection of vintage Art Deco locations, the biggest collection of Art Deco resort architecture in America.
4. Hôtel Gaythering
Miami Beach has a ton of gay-friendly hotels, but surprisingly, there hasn't been a straight-up (no pun intened) gay hotel, until now. Hôtel Gaythering is Miami Beach's only gay hotel, proudly stating that it's "hetero friendly."
The hotel, owned by Alexander Guerra and Stephan Ginez, stands apart for not indulging in the pastel, breezy aesthetic Miami Beach is known for. Instead, it has a stark, masculine design featuring the color red as a focal point. The hotel also features a bar, coffee shop, self spa and library. The small, intimate library allows for 20 to 40 people and has been the meeting spot for group discussions, small parties and perhaps, a quiet wedding.

TripAdvisor Reviews Hotel La Chakana Putre
Travel Blogs from Putre
A Lake on Top of the World
... us. It got freezing cold as soon as the sun set, but we bundled up and walked back into town for a dinner of alpaca steak, a soup made with seaweed from the nearby altiplano lakes and the biggest wine pours ever. The restaurant was rustic and cozy and prides itself on exposing visitors to Andean cuisine, with everything grown or raised in Putre, though there were several locals dining there, as well. It was all delicious. We had a brilliant breakfast ...
The Altiplano
... before heading back down. We were out in the hills for about 6 hours. Exhausted from altitude sickness, we shared a bag of crisps and went to bed. After 13 hours sleep, we were more hopeful and armed today. We downed 2 cups of coca tea, the recommended antidote to altitude sickness and set on our travels by car up the pass towards Bolivia to the Parque Nacional Lauca. The combination of the thin air and pot holed and bumpy highway ...
Long grass, short breath
... duvets. - It has at least one excellent restaurant that would stand it's own against some of London's better eating places. - 3700m above sea level. While not obviously a plus point, being this high is sufficiently challenging to make every activity an effort and so seem more worthwhile, without being so high that you feel continually ill. - Southern constellation are visible and the sky is brilliantly ...
Goodbye Chile
... in Chile is good compared with Argentina, with drivers overall being more tolerant and patient but indicators are still used infrequently and hazard flashers are popular. Stop at a junction and they will almost always wave you through, or even as a pedestrian at a crossing, they will stop for you! Taxi drivers aside, they are probably better drivers than in the UK.
We have seen amazing scenery and met some ...
Pressure pressure
... what the next month and a half will hold as its mostly at altitude!
A proper full on storm, hailstoning and everything, greets the village in the afternoon and the feeble electricity supply just can't hack it. This puts paid to the idea of having a warm shower and, generally, means that we are in for a boring evening.
La Paz tomorrow, and to be honest we are ready for ...

On July 11, 2006, Maj. Gen. William B. Caldwell IV, spokesman for the Multinational Force Iraq, spoke with ABC News' Terry McCarthy about the state of Iraq after an An al-Qaeda-linked group posted a Web video showing the mutilated bodies of two U.S. soldiers. The group claiming it killed the soldiers in revenge for the rape-slaying of a young Iraqi woman in Mahmudiyah by American troops from the same unit.
Caldwell addressed the video's release, its potential effect on stabilizing Iraq, and a timetable for troop withdrawal, among other issues. Here is a transcript of the interview:
Question: I wanted to ask you what the propaganda effects you see coming from the video of the two mutilated bodies and the claim that it was for the revenge of the raped girl in Mahmudiyah?
Answer: What it proves to all of us here that are serving in Iraq is that we really are against the evil enemy out there. Someone that would take people who are dead and then brutalize their bodies and then show it on TV like that, and on the Internet, just shows a distinct difference in how we approach these kinds of things and how they approach these kinds of things.
Q: You don't fear by using news events of these five men being charged that the insurgents are more media-sophisticated? Because clearly, they had it for more than a month and chose to release it in a news cycle.
A: Well, we don't know how long they've had it available to release. That's probably a question but they've obviously had it. But what I would tell you is this -- when you look at what's happened in Mahmudiya, and the fact that we have identified a situation that occurred down there where there's the death of an Iraqi family, we went ahead and did an investigation. We've found some reason to charge our people and they've been charged. We right now are proceeding forward with a full and open and transparent investigation to that case, that's how we approach it when we see that somebody has done something wrong. Whereas in the case of this anti-Iraqi elements that we're up against, their approach was we'll go out and kill more people, we'll brutalize their bodies, we'll show it on the internet, I mean there's just a -- just a dramatic difference in how they approach life and how we approach life. We're out for justice. They're out for revenge.
Q: Moving on to operation forward together launched with 50,000 troops. How would you assess the effectiveness of the initiative given the violence we are seeing today?
A: Operation forward together was the intent of the prime ministers to reduce the level of the violence in Baghdad. Because as we all know, as goes Baghdad, will go the rest of this country. And so, every anti-Iraqi element is focused there. It is not progressing as well as perhaps we had hoped it would. We clearly had thought that the level of violence would be further down than it is today. But there's so many good things that are also occurring. As long as we're steadily declining in the overall violence, we're having success, we'll keep going out there so we'll keep figuring out how to make adjustments and tweak the plan and make refinements so that we can, in fact, give the people of Baghdad the security, the comfort of knowing that they can be outside their homes and be secure.

You can make a very imperfect stroke, but if you have it on line, you much more likely to make the putt.
"Putting mechanics are mostly a matter of preference, but there is one universal rule for putts from six feet and in: Eyes over the ball…you'll see the line better. Come to think of it, it's a good rule for all putts."
– Dave Stockton
"Second, your eyes should be over the ball. The most important part of 'over the ball' is what I call 'down the line, over the ball.' It may be a little behind the ball which is the way I putt so that I can see the line. Or, what is probably preferable, and a way I wish I could've putt, is my eyes directly over the ball."
– Jack Nicklaus
Most golfers have heard that to make a good putt they have to have their eyes over the ball. Having a good putting stroke is important and you should work on your tempo, putter path, etc. These lessons, tools and analysis can cost hundreds of dollars.

Apparently American screenwriter and producer Aaron Sorkin wrote in a released email that the "degree of difficulty" was lower for female roles compared to male ones! Even when these 'easier' roles required more screen time. This is unacceptable, considering it's almost 2015. Women deserve economic, social, and political equality!

According to a study conducted at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, among teens with substance use disorders, those who also have social anxiety disorder begin using marijuana at a mean age of 10.6 years — an average of 2.2 years earlier than teens without anxiety. "This finding surprised us," said principal investigator Alexandra Wang, a third-year medical student at the university. "It shows we need to start earlier with prevention of drug and alcohol use and treatment of social phobia [in children]." The study was consisting of 195 teens ages 14 to 18 which 102 of them or 52 percent \ were teenage girls. They met the current diagnosis of substance use disorder and had received medical detoxification if needed. The researchers evaluated the participants' history of drug and alcohol use and digged into whether they'd had any of three anxiety disorders: social anxiety disorder, panic disorder, and agoraphobia. Out of 195 teens, 92 percent had marijuana dependence and the most disturbing part was it is starting at the age of 13 years. And on the other hand, 61 percent were alcohol-dependent, having started drinking at 13.5 years on average. This shows that marijuana was the most popular drug of choice. Teens with either social anxiety disorder or panic disorder were far more likely to have marijuana dependence, Wang said. Before marijuana dependence both of these disorders were more likely to occur. More or less 80 percent of teens suffering from social anxiety disorder and 85 percent with panic disorder had symptoms of that disorder previous to the onset of their substance abuse. In addition, panic disorder has a propensity to start before alcohol dependence and came about in 75 percent of alcohol-dependent adolescents. According to the authors, there was no clear evidence showing whether agoraphobia came before or after either marijuana use or the first drink. A limitation of the study, according to the research team, was that 128 (66 percent) of the teens were juvenile offenders who had received court-referred treatment for their substance abuse. These findings might not generalize to a less severely addicted population. Yet again, interventions to lessen social anxiety might help avoid substance abuse in teens. "We need to treat these young patients initially with non-pharmacologic means, such as cognitive behavioral therapy or mindfulness meditation," said Christina Delos Reyes, M.D., a psychiatrist specializing in addictions at University Hospitals Case Medical Center. Patrick Bordeaux, M.D., a child and adolescent psychiatrist in Quebec, Canada, said that "comorbidities tend to be the rule in adolescents, not the exception." "Adolescents are more likely to have social and mental disorders that make them more likely to use drugs," said Bordeaux, who was not involved with the study. Source Link:

Observations of seismicity can sometimes help to delineate active faults. Persistent alignments of seismicity, especially at the ends of identified faults, can occasionally be considered seismic sources or seismogenic extensions of a fault. Many active faults have associated seismicity, including the Calaveras, Hayward, and central San Andreas Fault zones of central California, which, however, may only indicate the creeping segments of these faults. Other sections of the San Andreas Fault system that are not currently creeping are not clearly delineated by small earthquakes. Areas of relatively high seismicity may warrant examination for active faults.
In the eastern United States, alignments of high seismicity such as near New Madrid are associated active subsurface faults. Other major basement faults are associated with seismicity and may be active (Gordon, 1985); these also could be examined.
Seismic reflection techniques can help to delineate subsurface faults in sedimentary basins, both on land and beneath lakes and oceans. These techniques are used for recent fault detection and delineation studies, particularly in offshore California (Greene et al., 1973) and along the central California coastal margin near the Hosgri Fault (Crouch et al., 1984) near Point Conception (Pipkin and Ploessel, 1985), and in the offshore zone of deformation between the Inglewood Fault and Rose Canyon Fault (San Diego). Seismic reflection profiling by the Consortium for Continental Reflection Profiling (COCORP) has revealed the down-dip nature of many faults and a major detachment surface under the Sevier Desert of Utah (Allmendinger et al., 1983).
Gravity methods are most effective for studying fault zones where a strong density contrast exists between materials on either side of the fault. This situation occurs along faults where basement rocks are displaced against sediments or fault offsets in basins where the thickness of sediment differs across the fault. These methods are especially effective for regions of extensional faulting. Zoback (1983) used gravity techniques to delineate the geometry of range bounding normal faults in the Basin and Range province along the Wasatch Fault zone in Utah.
Application of surface magnetic and aeromagnetic survey methods for evaluation of active faults is discussed by Cluff et al. (1972), Krinitzsky (1974), and Sherard et al. (1974). These methods can be used to detect and delineate faults concealed by recent sediments and provide a relatively inexpensive method of contouring the thickness of basin fill. Smith (1967) located intra-basin, largely concealed, major fault grabens within the Dixie Valley graben using aeromagnetic methods. Some of these graben boundary faults were also accurately delineated by the faulting of the 1954 Dixie Valley earthquake. Smith provided a detailed outline for applying magnetic methods to the Basin and Range province with normal- and oblique-slip faults.
Bailey (1974) used a magnetometer to determine the surface fault location of the Chabot Fault, California, where anomalous drops in magnetism suggested locations of fracturing and subsequent leaching related to faulting. The eastern limit of the Chabot Fault zone was identified so that buildings could be sited to avoid potential surface rupture. Similar applications may be useful in defining active faults that are concealed by young alluvium or bodies of water.
Exploratory methods for fault assessment advocated by Louderback (1950) were little used until the late 1960s when they assumed an important role in fault evaluations to assess such features as for activity, age dating, paleorupture and liquefaction events, slip direction, recurrence intervals, and slip rates. An adequate exploratory trenching and borehole program is critical in evaluation of active faults and is a major part of both domestic and foreign assessments. Specific applications to fault assessment are included in Taylor and Cluff (1973). The use of trenching as an exploratory method for nuclear power plant siting is discussed in Hatheway and Leighton (1979).
Before 1950, most geologists did not distinguish between inactive faults and those with a potential for renewed displacements and associated earthquake activity, yet this is a critical part of man's planning and design. Slemmons (1982a) listed over 30 definitions for "active" or "capable" faults of which only three were made before 1950. No definition for active faults is universally accepted, although two elements are present in most definitions: (1) the potential or probability of future displacements in the present tectonic setting and (2) the time of most recent displacement (e.g., historical, Holocene, Quaternary, or "in the present seismotectonic regime"). The first element, potential, is critical to all assessments for larger earthquakes; the second, recency, relates indirectly to rate of activity, which provides a more quantitative measure of degree of fault activity. Fault activity can also be classified by fault slip rate. Figure 3.2 shows the general relationships between

Farmers Market
Seattle's Original Farmers Market
Pike Place Market is home to Seattle's first farmers market. Founded in 1907 to provide a place for farmers and customers to meet directly, the Market continues the "Meet the Producer" tradition with farmers selling their produce and products at Market farm stalls seven days a week, 362 days a year. Today, more than 80 Washington farmers sell at the Market, offering Seattle residents and visitors the freshest and highest quality seasonal abundance from their fields.
Farmers Market on Pike Place
June 20-Sept. 28
Designated farmers market days are Friday-Sunday, 9 am-6 pm. Farmers also sell daily inside the arcade and on the street throughout the year.
The farmers market is located on the cobblestone street of Pike Place, between Pine St. and Stewart St. Look for a row of white tents on the west side of the street, under which farmers sell their fresh produce brought in from the farm that day.
Inside the arcade there are many more farmers who sell abundant flower bouquets, vegetables, berries and herbs.
Fresh Bucks SNAP matching is offered at all Pike Place Market farmers markets.
Express Markets
From June-October, Pike Place Market operates four Express farmers markets around downtown Seattle at City Hall, First Hill, Pioneer Square and South Lake Union to bring our farmers' fresh and local produce to residents and workers in the greater neighborhood. Learn More

Football: New president, same old Barcelona back on top
Published on Jan 27, 2014 6:31 AM
MADRID (AFP) - Barcelona put a stressful week off the field after the resignation of club president Sandro Rosell behind them to move back to the top of La Liga with a 3-0 win over Malaga on Sunday, Jan 26, 2014.
With new president Josep Maria Bartomeu watching on from the directors' box, Gerard Pique swept home the opener from Xavi's corner five minutes before half-time.
Pedro Rodriguez then made the game safe with a neat turn and finish from Lionel Messi's pass 10 minutes after the restart.
Alexis Sanchez slotted home the third moments later from Pedro's cross for his 12th goal of the season.

This thing is junk. The first one died after 3 months, the second didn't work out of the box. Not serviceable, I ended up having to buy a different unit.
I only lasted about a year and only used it about 3 times. Its worthless.

Worked well for a year, then died just as the warranty expired. I expected better quality. I didn't even use it very much, never for more than a few hours at a time.

The head is good but the rotation is bad. The unit separates itself from the base after continuous rotations. It becomes noisy. The base brakes off and you can not rotate it anymore. I can not recommend it to anyone because it brakes. If the base was made differently maybe that would help.

Bought it last year to augment heat in my office above garage. The thermostat control never worked right, but it was quiet and I could use the remote to be my own thermostat. I just started using it again and now the oscillation feature doesn't work and it's much louder.

I purchased two of these, just after the Holidays. One stopped oscillating after 2 weeks, the second stopped after about a month. If you want a nice looking tower room heater than does not oscillate, this is fine. It does read out the room temperature, which is a nice feature. It has several useful settings. Unfortunately, I really need something that oscillates.

Asia, Africa, and the Pacific
Radar images from a National Aeronautics and Space Administration space shuttle yielded evidence of the track of the Silk Road from northwestern China to the Middle East and settlement remains along the route. Much archaeological news from East Asia focused on the problems of antiquity smuggling, evidently particularly troublesome in China. One extraordinary discovery in China was an underground tomb near Xian (Sian) dating to c. 25 BC. It had been looted twice in antiquity, but on its ceiling was a remarkable printed map of the stars and a series of constellations.
There was uncertainty about the origins of human occupation of Australia. Existing physical evidence had been determined to be at the limits of the early reach of radiocarbon dating, but thermoluminescence assays now suggested that human settlement began as early as 50,000 years ago. Antiquity considered the interesting circumstances for archaeological research in Australia and discussed how such efforts had changed with the growth in respect for the aboriginal peoples.
With this contribution, Robert J. Braidwood begins his 51st year of writing about archaeology for the Britannica Book of the Year. The editors and staff would like to extend their special thanks and cordial greetings to our esteemed colleague on this occasion.
Western Hemisphere
Archaeological research in the Western Hemisphere in 1993 was marked by discoveries in ancient Mayan and Mexican archaeology, new evidence for the antiquity and origins of early human habitation in North America, and, for the historic period, the unearthing of fortifications built by the earliest 16th-century Spanish explorers. Traditional archaeological discoveries were matched by findings that highlight the role of archaeology in the reconstruction of environmental conditions for areas and time periods before scientific data were collected.
Environmental Archaeology
Reliable official hurricane records exist only for the past 120 years, but the use of archaeological stratigraphic records and radiocarbon determinations of storm-deposited sand in an Alabama lake has provided evidence of major hurricanes in the area every 600 years on the average. By studying the depth of sand lenses to determine relative age and their thickness to determine wind intensity, Kam-biu Liu of Louisiana State University developed a technique that may extend the record of storm activity in the Gulf States to 6,000 years before the present. A basis also may be provided for testing models of global warming that suggested that hurricanes intensify in force and frequency with rising global temperatures.
New insights into the impact of precontact cultures on the landscape helped to explode myths of the pristine nature of these environments. Working in the lowlands of Costa Rica, multidisciplinary teams discovered evidence that America's tropical forests may not be as natural and untouched by past human activity as had been thought. Buck Stanford of the University of Denver, Colo., announced the recovery from the soil of ancient charcoal dating to 1,200-2,000 years before the present, indicating that the area's "virgin" forest was once burned and cultivated. The discovery of a buried stone hearth, burial sites, tools, and food remains supported the idea that the forest inhabitants raised yucca and corn (maize) as early as AD 800. Related studies of corn pollen by Mark Bush, a paleoecologist at Duke University, Durham, N.C., working in the Darién Gap rain forest in Panama, revealed that the area had been heavily altered by cultivation from at least 4,000 years before the present and as recently as 300 years ago. Finally, parallel studies of the traditional raised field agriculture of the ancient inhabitants of highland Mexico also cast doubts upon the environmental health of these practices, long held to represent an example of man's living in harmony with nature. A series of deep lake cores into the sediments of Lake Pátzcuaro, northwest of Mexico City, by a team headed by Sarah L. O'Hara of the University of Sheffield, England, provided evidence that farming may have induced severe environmental impacts. The investigators identified three major episodes of ancient soil erosion, with the third and most destructive dating to between AD 1200 and the arrival of the Spanish in the 16th century. Roughly contemporaneous with the time of the Aztec Empire, this period was characterized by what O'Hara described as "staggeringly high" environmental impacts and erosion rates of 208 metric tons of soil per hectare (85 tons per acre) per year.
Early Human Sites
Archaeologists working in northern Alaska reported evidence from radiocarbon datings that supported the antiquity of one of the earliest early human sites in the Northern Hemisphere. U.S. Bureau of Land Management scientists announced the initial discovery of an early Paleo-Indian site on a high mesa in 1978. In 1993 the team, under the direction of Michael Kunz, confirmed the antiquity of this find at 9,700-11,700 years before the present. In addition, the 50 bifacially flaked fluted points found there were similar to those of the Clovis complex tools found with extinct mammoth remains in the U.S. Southwest half a century earlier. They were quite different from points found at the Nenana culture complex in Alaska, which also dates to c. 11,000 years before the present, and showed strong cultural parallels to early stone tool industries in eastern Siberia for this time period. The discovery of these two distinctive stone tool cultures suggested that two very different Early Man groups were present in northern Alaska at the time of early immigration from Asia into the New World.

April 24, 2012
JACKSON, Miss. – Ole Miss lost another of its football legends Sunday with the passing of Roland H. Dale, 84, an outstanding player with the Rebels who later became one of Coach John Vaught's top assistant coaches before enjoying a successful career in athletics administration as Director of Athletics at the University of Southern Mississippi.
Arrangements are incomplete at this time.
Born Oct. 30, 1927 in Magee, Miss., Dale attended Magee High School where he was an outstanding prep athlete. Highly recruited out of Magee High, he signed a football scholarship with Ole Miss and was a 205-pound, two-way player for Coach Harry Mehre's Rebels in 1945, averaging more than 50 minutes per game, while earning a letter in his true freshman season.
One of his assistant coaches in 1945 was Edwin "Goat" Hale, who was later inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame as a player from Mississippi College.
Dale's college career at Ole Miss was briefly interrupted by a 14-month tour of duty with the U. S. Marine Corps. He returned to Ole Miss to play on Vaught's first three teams in 1947, 1948 and 1949. The 1947 team captured the school's first ever Southeastern Conference football crown as the Rebels finished 9-2, including a victory over Vaught's alma mater, Texas Christian University, in the Delta Bowl in Memphis. The 1947 and 1948 teams went a combined 17-3.
After serving as captain of the 1949 squad, Dale was chosen to play in the Blue-Gray All-Star game. He was drafted by the Brooklyn Dodgers of the old All-America Football Conference, but chose to play in the National Football League as a defensive end with the Washington Redskins in 1950.
A shoulder injury forced an early retirement from the pro ranks and he then entered the coaching profession at Jones Junior College before going to Greenwood High School. He was named Big Eight Coach of the Year in 1953 while serving as athletics director and head football coach at Gulfport High School. He also coached in the 1954 Mississippi High School All-Star game.
He entered the senior college coaching ranks when he served as line coach (1955-57) at Mississippi Southern College (now USM), helping lead the team to a 26-3-1 record and two appearances in the Tangerine Bowl. Dale then stepped away from coaching in 1958 to enter private business in Jackson, Miss., before once again returning to coaching in 1959 as defensive line coach at Tulane.
Dale returned to Ole Miss in 1960 when he joined Vaught's staff as an assistant coach and scout. He became coach of the ends in 1963 and took over as defensive coach in charge of ends and linebackers in 1967. During his 12 years as an assistant at Ole Miss, including 11 with Vaught and one with Billy Kinard (1971), Dale helped lead the Rebels to three SEC championships, a share of two national titles and bowl games all 12 years.
Following his 12 years as an assistant at Ole Miss, Dale served two years as head football coach at Southeastern Louisiana University before returning to Hattiesburg as Director of Athletics at Southern Miss in 1974.
While serving as athletics director at USM for 12 years, Dale provided the university with outstanding leadership, which saw the department make tremendous improvements under his watch. He was credited with gaining conference affiliation for the school and upgrading schedules and facilities, including the expansion and renovation of M. M. Roberts Stadium.
Dale's accomplished career in coaching and athletics administration did not go unnoticed. He was inducted into the Ole Miss Athletics Hall of Fame in 1987, the Mississippi Sports Hall of Fame in 1995 and the Southern Miss M-Club Hall of Fame in 1996.
Dale earned his undergraduate degree from Ole Miss in August of 1949 and his M.E. degree in May of 1951. He is survived by his wife, the former Tennie Coleman of Indianola, Miss., their two children -- Christy Wilson of Clinton, Miss., and Frank Dale of Dallas, Texas -- and eight grandchildren.

i enjoy sitting back and relaxing to music or reading a nice book. or i'll hang with my friends. we usually go to the plaza. ( once i drag myself away from my stash! )
i would love to know all the different things you do when you eventually manage to pull yourself away from the yarn and needles. LOL
Dont take people for granted, beacuse one day you will realise you have lost a diamond while you were too buysing collecting stones....
"...away from the yarn and needles..".? Oh, there's always a little knitting project tucked into my bag. You never know when you have to wait in line, traffic lights, whatever.
Other than knitting, I explore wherever I am that day. As I live on a sailboat and cruise along the coast of mainland Mexico and Baja California, I'm in new places every few days. I just like to walk around the little towns - or remote islands, swim, snorkel, drink beer in a beach palapa (thatched roof restaurant). Sure wish there were more knitters to hang with though. I miss the knitterly chat & giggles.

What a fabulous life you lead. I live at the opposite end of the US - in Maine. I have freinds that sail the Maine coast - which is beautiful if you ever want a change in scenery. Maybe someday I will have adventures like you - but today - with three in college - my adventure is watching my three awesome children mature in to young adults.
Hope you have beautiful sailing weather today - we are off to spend the day on the water - but in a canoe (and on a lake - not the ocean).
away from yarn & needles, thread & hooks? hard to get me completely away from them. before the price of gas got so high (I drive a relatively economic vehicle getting around 25mpg) I loved to go exploring -- pick a highway out of town then turn off on a road I've never been on before. follow that road until I see another interesting one. sometimes I'd end up at or near a nice lake or river and could find a good spot to relax with that knitting or crocheting I had carefully tucked away before starting out.
Good question. Most of the time my child, the household chores, and ,of course, work keep me from needles and yarn. Well, but if something really can drag me away from a knitting project apart from family and friends it's a painting I am working on, or a very good book.
Oh, and gardening - I love digging my hands into the soil.
Terry the sailing knitter:
Can I come live with you on your boat? Sounds like heaven to me....!!! Sun, ocean, waves. Little towns. Seafood dinners. Margaritas.
Oh, wait. I can't come live with you on your boat. I have to stay here with my adorable husband, my smiling dog, and my loving 3 cats. Plus there's this whole Knitting Daily gig I sort of have to do every day ;)
Well. It is a nice thought, and I shall think of you sailing and knitting when I need a mental break, how's that?
With you in spirit,
KD Sandita
It's rough, but somebodys got to do it. Thank goodness for internet so I can keep up with all the knitting news whenever we're near a WiFi signal.
Good idea to keep the adorable husband, dog, and cats and the job with a subject you actually like. Those are all important to being happy. I've often said I would live anywhere as long as I had my still-cute husband with me. The cruisiing lifestyle was MY idea - thank goodness he loves it too!
Maybe someday you WILL come visit - OK? Next year, Costa Rica and Panama!
Terry - sailing south to Puerto Vallarta tomorrow to meet a vacationing knitting friend - yippeeee!
I like listening to music or reading (but sometimes a character in the books knits-- I don't even plan it that way) a lot. My girlfriends and I all go to different colleges so I hang out with them during school breaks. Usually I work or hang out with my cute close friend at the store we work at. But he's an enabler and encourages the knitting so I'm not always yarnfree when I'm with him.
wow... i was gone for a few hours and all these wonderfull posts came in..
yes i must admitt.. i usually bring my knitting or crochet with me.. a few times my parents have managed to go through my bag and take t out only leaving me bored half way through my trip.. grr.. so because they do that i spend an hour at the nearest craft store and buy new things.. heh heh heh.. gosh they must love me soooo much..
Terry, the sailing trip sounds wonderful! my mum doesnt like sailing because she ends up getting sick.. but i cant get enough of it! one day i'll have a boat of my own...
Wow, Terry! That sounds like a glorious life! My husband has this dream of doing something similar, though he'd prefer to go more Mediterranean. After our visit to Spain last summer, I wouldn't mind either!
My yarn and needles are never really far from me, to be honest, as I have knitting with me everywhere I go. But I like to go to the beach or to the mountains when my husband and I can get time to do so - either of them are just a short drive for us because of where we live. I also love to cook, and to eat, so we try new restaurants when we can. I'm a big crime-drama fan, so I watch a lot of that on TV .. but that's also knitting time.
I also love music, and chatting online with freinds. I have recently discovered a fondness for gardening, and now that I've won the battle with my HOA over whether I should be allowed to plant flowers in my front yard and make my townhouse look different than everyone else's, I've got some beautiful things growing.
"I don't cause commotions. I am one." Elphaba. Wicked. Act 1. Scene 11 - The Lion Cub
I am getting used to an almost empty nest. My 19 year old daughter did not want me to be too lonely, so she keeps buying puppies. So far, two toy poodles and a now a schnoodle puppy. OY...we are a little busy keeping up with all their antics. They are so much fun, but lots of hard work. I work part time at our local mall in a clothing shop to support my yarn habit. I enjoy converting my co workers and customers into knitters/crocheters/fiber enthusiasts and promoting business for our LYS in the area. Its fun. I'm trying very hard to stick with a Weight Watchers plan and exercise. My 19 yr old daughter is also a competitive ice dancer and college student majoring in math. This has been her life since she was about 7 yrs old. When I have days off I enjoy going to the rink to watch her skate. My step daughter is planning her wedding for late this summer so that also very exciting and keeps us busy.
Reading is a favorite past time. Usually a good novel helps me get through the time on my exercise bike. I am also trying to become more computer savvy.
I try to enjoy each day and be thankful for all I have. The online knitting community has been a source of joy for me. I've met many wonderful people, am learning so many incredible things, finally feel like I belong and never feel lonely.
wow, all of you sound so very accomplished! I have just gotten my least-un graduated from high school...and the eldest graduated from grad school. the other two are probably best referred to as Professional Students. . . sigh.
I have sheep, shear and care for them in addition to spinning and knitting, garden and can, piddle with photography (previously old-fashioned, lately digital) and my husband and I are trying to renovate the raddled, old duchess of a farmhouse we've had for the last 16 years...we've done it ALL, trust me. ( I guess I'm proudest of stenciling in the main rooms, or learning 3-coat plaster repair)
I'd rather be living on a boat, but the mountains of north-east Tennessee will have to do for now. I've got a front porch! Come visit!
Well, there is rather a long list of the things I like to do...
I like walking - I'm lucky to live in the heart of Cheshire here in the UK, where there are lots of trails and cycle tracks to follow. I like cycling too.
I am a musician, so I go to play recorder regularly with a local group. We have a short concert coming up in June. I play piano too.
As well as knitting I enjoy sewing - quilting, free machine embroidery, hand embroidery, generally making things with cloth or yarns and floss. I do some dressmaking, but not as much as I would like.
I enjoy doing some felt making too - the feltmaking which is extremely messy. (The soap, warm water and a lot of elbow grease).
Oh yes, I work full-time. I teach seven to eight year olds in the local village school. I run a Computer Club and a Gardening Club too, after school.
Textiles keep me sane, and really loving life.
Aside from child wrangling, I enjoy sewing-- I make many of my own clothes, especially in summer. I am also a glass beadmaker/ jewelry maker. Obviously, I enjoy making things to adorn myself and the people I love. I am an avid reader and listener of public radio. I work out in the wee hours of the morning while children and husband are fast asleep. And I recently picked up my tennis racquet again after a long hiatus.
I am usually working or taking care of our kids, 5 dogs and 3 cats but when I'm not, I can usually be found curled up with a good book.
Recently I took my riders course and obtained my endorsement to ride a motorcycle so I try to find time to ride a little to get use to it. I figure if gas prices keep going up and up, I'll end up riding to work on a motorcycle.
I try to take my crocheting with me to work but it never seems to happen that I actually have the time to actually work on anything.
My husband and I love to go to the beach to sit and watch the dolphins frolic and play and the beautiful sunsets. Sometimes it's just he and I and I remember why I moved to Florida and why I love him so much.
I sometimes wish we had a boat so I could just 'escape' from the world for a little while but all in all, I love my life just like it is..crazy enough to be interesting but not boring.
So many yarns/patterns....so little time!

Tanorexic Action Figure
OXFORD, Conn. (AP) - A Connecticut novelty company is selling a "tanorexic" action figure based on a deeply tanned New Jersey mother accused of causing skin burns to her young daughter in a tanning booth.
Patricia Krentcil has said she loves tanning but wouldn't - and didn't - take her then-5-year-old into a tanning booth. Krentcil pleaded not guilty last week to a child endangerment charge.
She says her daughter got sunburned outdoors.
The president of Oxford-based HeroBuilders says everyone has friends into heavy tanning. Emil Vicale says, "We thought it was a funny thing to do."
The blonde, orange-faced doll in a black pantsuit is $29.95.
A phone number for Krentcil in Nutley rang unanswered Tuesday night. Her attorney didn't return an after-hours message.

Great Gatsby Met Gala Screening
Carey and Leo Host a Big Apple Gatsby Bash
Carey Mulligan, wearing Lanvin, joined Leonardo DiCaprio to show their new film, The Great Gatsby, to a star-studded crowd in NYC last night. Katy Perry, Gwen Stefani, David Schwimmer, and Emma Roberts turned out to see the Baz Luhrmann-directed version of F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel. The celebs retired to the Top of the Standard for the afterparty. Many may return to the Standard's top-floor bar this evening, too — it's a popular spot for post-Met Gala bashes!
Carey and Leo mingled with famous fans of their film following a big week. They attended the NYC premiere Wednesday at Lincoln Center along with costars Tobey Maguire and Isla Fisher. The coming days will bring more fun. They're expected on the Croisette in Cannes to screen their film, which will open the city's 2013 film festival.
