Tea party in Eliot brings attendees back to Victorian era
Monday, December 10, 2012
ELIOT, Maine — Gentility was the watchword of the day on Sunday, Dec. 2, as the William Fogg Library was the beneficiary of the sixth Annual Victorian Christmas Tea.
Kathy Runey of Eliot was sitting with her daughter Makayla, a 12-year-old student at Marshwood Middle School. They were joined by friend Terry Lisa Barrows of Lebanon.
"This is our fourth Victorian tea," explained Kathy while nodding to her daughter.
"And it is my first," said Barrows, "and I love it, love it, love it."
"We have been joined in the past by our friend Patty Higgins, who unfortunately could not be here, she is studying for her master's degree in Saint Louis," said Kathy while asking for a picture to be taken of them at their table with a vacant seat, showing their friend she is missed.
Sharing a table and enjoying a sumptuous repast were Eliot residents Mary Ellis, Rosalie Churchill and Ashley Whyte, who found the offerings and the day "beautiful, a wonderful and delicious variety, very classy."
"We are enjoying ourselves as much this year as in the past," said Ellis.
Retired educators Priscilla Metalious of Rye and Carolyn Bogh, both formerly on the faculty at Marshwood High School found the day to be, as Metalious put it, "Wonderful. It is a perfect day, I'm on my fourth cup of tea." Said Bogh, "I am active with the Friends of Library and it is exciting to see so many people here supporting the library, and the music is making it just perfect!"
Hennigan was recently returned from Alfond Arena in Orono, Maine where she sang the national anthem for the 4,000 fans at the University of Maine versus University of Vermont hockey contest the previous evening. Hennigan's sister Abby has been assisting at the tea "for four years. Doing a fundraiser like this with sandwiches and cookies is a good idea," said the soon to be college-bound senior at St. Thomas Aquinas High School. Soccer player Mutch, a first-year server, said, "This is fun, the people are all so nice."
Said first-year diner Terry Lisa Barrows, "This is a lovely event, it is greatly beneficial to the library and one of the few occasions friends get a chance sit down and relax quietly and enjoy each other's company."

Man shot by police granted bail reduction
Saturday, February 9, 2013
DOVER — Steve Amazeen, 45, held currently at the Strafford County House of Corrections, asked a judge to revisit his bail conditions Friday morning, resulting in a $10,000 cash or surety only bail that upon being posted would releaseAmazeen into the supervision of his brother.
He waived a probable cause hearing at Dover Circuit Court and waits now in jail on charges of reckless conduct for placing another person in harm, and criminal threatening for use of a deadly weapon bound over from that court.
Velardi told Lewis he was concerned that even with the burden of responsibility placed on his brother, the danger Amazeen may present is now placed on the community of Deerfield. He reminded the court that when the Lee incident occurred in December, communities and schools such as those in Durham were essentially on lock down.

Pres. Obama awards posthumous medal of honor to Fr. Kapaun
There are so few times that I can find to support our president, I just wanted to get this out so that no one misses it.
This morning (4/11/13), President Obama awarded the posthumous medal of honor to Fr. Emil Kapaun, Catholic priest and U.S. Army chaplain for his extraordinary and heroic service during the Korean War. Fr. Kapaun did not make it back home. After being taken prisoner, he later died in captivity.
The video(below) is of the entire White House ceremony this morning. I was happy to see that the entire ceremony was covered live on both CNN and FOX. The story of Fr. Kapuan, his life, his inspiration to fellow soldiers and POWs, and his eventual death by the prison guards is quite impressive and moving.
I recommend that you watch/listen to the story of Fr. Kapuan, as delivered by President Obama. It was nice to hear him have so many good things to say about a Cathoic priest and U.S. Army chaplain. The president even mentioned, among many other heroic deeds, how Fr. Kapuan would say the Rosary with the prisoners, deliver the sacraments and preside over Mass in the prison camp... providing great inspiration, comfort and encouragement to the other prisoners. As Fr. Kapuan finally was being led away (by the guards) to his death, he blessed the guards saying... "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they are doing."

Rated 5 out of 5 by Tweed Excellent Nice light weight fabric that you can't see through. Size is right on. June 24, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by LBJ2 no return The pants were received when we were out of the country and by the time we got back and I tried on the pants and didn't like them, I saw the return policy was within 30 days which was then passed. So I put the pants away, never to wear them and never to buy from this company again. June 20, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Shrewsbury Good First Impression I tried on the pants today for the first time, and they are as advertised. I find them a little baggy, but not more so than the photo suggests; and I don't care for the cargo pockets. I also find them quite expensive for what they are, although apparently good quality, which may or may not wear well. Overall, I'm happy with the purchase so far. June 19, 2014

Italian Culinary Experience: New York
Amore. That's what the Italian Culinary Experience is all about—a deep, abiding love for the vibrant traditions of Italy's treasured cuisine. Designed by world-renowned Tuscan chef Cesare Casella, this program divides your time between two culinary capitals, New York City and the famed Emilia-Romagna region, to provide one of the most comprehensive training experiences ever created for the aspiring Italian cook. Immersive and intensive, this seven-month experience will forever change the way you think about food, and about life. Check out our video at the bottom of this page to get a glimpse of what this program has to offer.
* M-1 nonimmigrant students are not eligible for the Italian Culinary Experience in New York, but are eligible for this course at ICC's California campus. Click here for details.
Authenticity from Day One
From the moment you arrive at our NYC campus, you'll be preparing for Italy. In ten fast-paced weeks, you'll dive into Italian cooking fundamentals, authentic ingredients, traditional dishes and Italian language. Under the close tutelage of our experienced chef-instructors, you'll gain a serious working knowledge of classic dishes ranging from antipasti to la dolce.
Study Abroad
Then you're off to Italy! For nine exhilarating weeks, you'll study at our sister school, ALMA, The International School of Italian Cuisine near Parma, where you'll expand your knowledge with history, visits from master chefs and field trips to the sources of authentic Italian cuisine: regional farms, factories and vineyards that employ traditional methods. As you taste and explore the local abundance—such as truffles, olive oil, wine, balsamic vinegar, Prosciutto di Parma and, of course, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese—you'll truly understand the Italian approach to ingredients and cooking.
Work in Italy
Week 20 marks the beginning of a stage (apprenticeship) arranged with a highly rated Italian chef in his/her restaurant, improving your techniques and language skills every day. (Many of our students decide to stay as long as five months.) Students then return to ALMA for a final practical exam evaluated by a panel of esteemed Italian chefs and chef-instructors. When finished, you will have a top-rated European restaurant on your resume and vast knowledge at your command.
Available to qualifying applicants; Italian-specific scholarships cannot be combined

TTT#413 Connected Educators and Youth Voices 10.1.14
A special-focus Connected Educator Month webinar will kick off on October 1st as part of the "Student Agency, Voice, and the Maker Movement" theme and set the stage for a month-long set of conversations about creating space, time and opportunities for this kind of connected learning in the classroom. An open online forum for youth and their teachers called Youthvoices.net will also be highlighted as a space that many regulars at TTT work in with youth.
Teachers Teaching Teachers is exactly what it claims to be – an opportunity for educators to touch base as peers and colleagues about connected learning and daily practice. Held every Wednesday evening at 9pm ET, New York City high school teacher Paul Allison invites open dialogue and conversations, "water cooler style," among a range of teachers and learners from K-University educators, to developers, artists, mentors, coaches, designers, makers, dreamers and students.
This is a perfect time to jump into this collegial and friendly community, as well as get introduced to a related youth/teacher forum called Youthvoices.net, if you haven't been already. And if you have been, we invite you to reconnect and revisit throughout October. TTT is streamed live via Google Hangout at EdTechTalk.com and includes a chat to increase the numbers who are able to participate.

TTT#407 Welcome Back after Ferguson w/ Marcia Chatelain, Karen Fasimpaur, Alicia Lobaco, Jo Paraiso, and Chris Sloan – 8.20.14
We were planning a "Welcome Back" episode on Teachers Teaching Teachers, something about how to launch connected learning with Youth Voices in our classrooms and how to be more planful about connecting our curriculum. #connectedlearning.
How do we do that after Michael Brown's killing and the Ferguson protests? More than ever we need those days, even weeks of trust-building with our students, yet we also can't pretend that Ferguson isn't happening.
In addition to this webcast, we offer a small contribution with a #FergusonSyllabus http://bit.ly/1AkhCba or http://youthvoices.net/michaelbrown using Gooru, NowComment, Crocodoc, and Vialogues.
Start with your own questions, then deepen your inquiry into Michael Brown's shooting, and the protests and confrontations in Ferguson by choosing from these articles, songs, interviews, photographs, blog posts, podcasts, reviews, videos, reports and surveys.
For this episode of TTT, Youth Voices teachers Chris Sloan, Paul Allison, Jo Paraiso, and Alicia Lobaco talk about how we are going to be launch a connected learning curriculum this year on Youth Voices http://youthvoices.net and how we are talking about and learning from Michael Brown's shooting, the protests, and the confrontatons in Ferguson. In addition we were also joined by Dr. Marcia Chatelain, who has been organizing #FergusonSyllabus on Twitter. On LinkedIn, Marcia writes:
I am first and foremost an educator. I have been teaching high school and college students since 2003. My career goals include publishing on the experiences of women and girls in the United States, African-American women's leadership and the relationship between food and society.
Dr. Chatelin is also a Ford Foundation Diversity Postdoctoral Fellow and she is the recipient of a 2012-2013 Ford Foundation Diversity Postdoctoral Fellowship to work on her second book on food and civil rights. She is also Assistant Professor in History
#FergusonSyllabus is a great way to connect with others who are thinking about when and how to bring the Michael Brown shooting into the curriculum.
One of the take-aways from this episode of TTT was to be reminded of the power of http://youthvoices.net for our students. It's important to see and hear the views of students from different communities. The students in Chris Sloan's classes in Salt Lake City and the students in Jo Paraiso's classes in Oakland and my students in the Bronx are relatively homogeneous, and they can learn a lot from talking with students outside of their immediate school communities, especially on issues of race.

TTT#378 A Case for Food Literacy w/ Joseph Franzen, Brent Peters, Lauren Goldberg, Devin Brown, Elfe Dona, Karen Fasimpaur 1.15.14
Calling all gardeners, foodies, and critical inquirers! On this episode of TTT meet teachers who have been developing amazing projects around food. We are joined by Joseph Franzen and Brent Peters along with one of their students, Devin Brown. In additon Lauren Goldberg, Elfe Dona, and Karen Fasimpaur add to this rich conversation about what happens when we focus on the relationships students have with food.
Here are a couple of teasers:
Before becoming an English teacher and Bread Loaf student, Brent Peters worked as a chef at the Mayan Café in Louisville, Kentucky. Joe Franzen has been an urban gardener, sustainability enthusiast, environmental educator, and kitchen magician for years. He has turned Fern Creek Traditional High School into an "edible campus."
Read more at "The Case For Food Literacy" on the Bread Loaf Teacher Network Journal http://sites.middlebury.edu/bltnmag/2012/10/25/food-literacy/
See how Joe and Brent helped connect their students from Louisville with youths in the Navajo Nation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJoEdHe-p3s
Also take a look at Lauren Goldberg's article in the English Journal, "Herbivores, Carnivores, and Literavores: Argument and Appetite in the Classroom"http://www.ncte.org/library/NCTEFiles/Resources/Journals/EJ/1026-jul2013/EJ1026Herb.pdf
We'd love to hear how your students have used food, gardening, and critical inquiry in their learning. What a rich place this is for learning — for all of us!

The US and ALICE
About 75 physicists, engineers and students from 14 U.S. institutions participate in the ALICE experiment. The ALICE experiment studies the hot quark-gluon plasma that existed several microseconds after the Big Bang by analyzing the collisions of lead nuclei at the LHC.
The ALICE-USA collaboration, funded primarily by the Division of Nuclear Physics of the US Department of Energy Office of Science, collaborated with institutions in France and Italy to construct an electromagnetic calorimeter (EMCal) for ALICE. The EMCal is a lead-scintillator sampling calorimeter consisting of approximately 13,000 towers. The EMCal gives ALICE the ability to trigger on and measure high energy jets, clusters of elementary particles created from fast-moving quarks and gluons. Such fast quarks and gluons are formed in the initial stage of the collisions of lead nuclei and are used to investigate properties of the quark-gluon plasma.
Since their initial involvement in ALICE 10 years ago, scientists and students from three US institutions – Creighton University, Ohio State University and the Ohio Supercomputing Center – have made many critical contributions to the construction of ALICE. Members of these institutions developed the control systems for ALICE that allow control and monitoring of more than 100,000 pieces of information from the running detector, such as voltages, pressures and temperatures. US scientists have also developed and tested silicon drift detectors for the ALICE Inner Tracking System (ITS), contributed software for the ITS, developed hardware and controls for the ALICE detector laser-alignment system, and completed various computer simulations on the anticipated signals and physics from ALICE. Two supercomputer centers in the US have supplied ALICE with state-of-the-art cluster computing and helped port the ALICE computing framework and environment to US-based computing platforms.
Additional support for the US participation in ALICE comes from the National Science Foundation and the State of Ohio.List of US institutions participating in the ALICE experiment

Recently much of what we have heard about Mariah Carey in the media has been about her marriage to Nick Cannon, her twins, or her duties as a Jenny Craig spokesperson. But the songstress took to Facebook on Wednesday to announce that Carey is back at what we have come to love her for: her music career.
Mariah Carey revealed to her fans that she is working on an original song called "Mesmerize" for Lee Daniels' new movie The Paperboy starring Zac Efron, Nicole Kidman, Matthew McConaughey and John Cusack. The film is set to premiere at this year's Cannes Film Festival. This is not the first time the diva has appeared on a film soundtrack. Carey wrote and recorded the feature song for the 1992 film Hero and sang a duet with Whitney Houston for 1998′s The Prince of Egypt. Carey has yet to mention when fans will be able to hear the song but wrote that she "hope[s] to play it for you very soon!"
Are you excited to hear Mariah's new song? What are some of your favorite songs by this diva? Leave us a comment and let us know! Here is one of mine, Mariah Carey's Say Somethin' with Pharrell and Snoop Dogg.

This one is getting smart. It copies headlines and posts in such a way that it often resembles good english. Still a CP bot though.
He starts with predefined phase, such as "I agree that", "I disagree that", then stirs words making his "opinion" and then adds some complimentary wording. While his sentences do make sense, but what does not make sense is the logical content of his postings - there is none.

ALL Tony Kuhel POSTS
Optimism for M&A builds, but prospects unclear
Blog Entry:
January 09, 2013 4:30 AM | Author: Tony Kuhel
Tony Kuhel is a partner in
Thompson Hine's
Corporate Transactions & Securities practice group and is vice chair of the practice in Cleveland. He focuses his practice on mergers and acquisitions, private equity and venture capital transactions.
As the trials and tribulations of year-end closings fade from memory, the mergers and acquisitions community is engaged in the annual ritual of sizing up activity in the prior year.
The early returns on 2012 reflect an uneven pattern in terms of deal activity. While an active first quarter increased expectations for a strong year, the second and third quarters exhibited a decrease in M&A activity, primarily as the result of weaker-than-expected results for the U.S. economy and uncertainty in the Eurozone.
And although returns are still coming in for the fourth quarter, it appears that deal volume was strong (though perhaps not as strong as anticipated) as buyers and sellers approached the "fiscal cliff" and became increasingly concerned about the specter of increasing capital gains and marginal income tax rates.
Much more interesting, however, is predicting how trends from 2012, together with current market, economic and political conditions, might affect the prospects for dealmaking in 2013.
In certain respects, the outlook for M&A activity has never been brighter. With deep pools of available capital and a historic interest rate environment, conditions are ripe for buyers to deploy equity capital, leveraged by readily available and inexpensive debt financing.
On the sell side, a stabilized economy has resulted in improved financial performance for companies most likely to go to market, and a generation of business owners is approaching retirement and may be looking to monetize its "sweat equity."
However, these same conditions existed for most of 2012 as well, and overall M&A activity still took a step back (especially if activity in the fourth quarter is discounted for the effects of the "fiscal cliff"). The critical question is whether these conditions will finally bring about a thriving M&A market in 2013, or will the new year exhibit more of the same uncertainties and ebbs and flows that we experienced in 2012?
In December, I attended a seminar sponsored by the M&A Advisor that attempted to address this question, and the consensus was there is no consensus. If the theme of the seminar, "The Long Pause," was any indication, it would not seem that 2013 is a year about which to get too excited.
However, there is cautious optimism among M&A practitioners. First, the investment banking community does not expect the new deal pipeline to be depleted more than usual by the rush for year-end closings. Meanwhile, economists predict steady, although not robust, growth in the U.S. economy that should help maintain M&A activity through the middle part of the year.
The turn of the calendar also should ease some of the political uncertainty inherent in an election year. We should expect the health care and energy sectors — especially in Northeast Ohio — to continue to be a critical component of M&A activity in 2013. Of particular interest will be major pharmaceutical manufacturers, which will be looking to replace an unprecedented number of drugs coming off patent in the next 12 to 24 months, and the health care payer space, as the implementation of the Affordable Care Act becomes a reality.
So while it seems more likely that M&A activity in 2013 will be closer to 2011 than the "glory days" of 2005 through 2007, those that survived the instability of 2008 and 2009 realize that forecast is not all bad.
My hunch is that 2013 will be a year of continued recovery, both in the overall economy and in terms of M&A activity, but that 2014 is the year that the M&A community should look forward to.

Our provocative moniker originated with the massive overhead fans we perfected to bring comfort and energy savings to similarly sized industrial buildings. Today, though, Big Ass Solutions is much more than industrial—and much more than Big Ass Fans. Big Ass means quality, form and function to solve problems in the built environment. So what the heck does that mean? It's having a veritable herd of engineers on staff and the world's only R&D facility (which is LEED® Gold, no less) dedicated to testing air movement on a grand scale. It's speaking to our customers directly to understand and solve their problems. But mostly it's an insatiable drive to improve, engineer, design, test, re-engineer, re-design and re-test until we get it just right. And then start over again. It's applying our Big Ass approach to other problems, and inventing or reinventing solutions. We don't do things halfway. We go Big Ass. And that's precisely why there's No Equal™.

The primary function of mitochondria is to generate >90% of a cell's energy in the form of ATP, through the process of oxidative phosphorylation. The impairment of this function can lead to negative effects on tissues such as reduced cellular function or cellular death. Recent studies have shown that an increasing number of drugs no longer on the market have negative effects on mitochondrial function in key organs such as the liver and heart. Therefore it is increasingly important to monitor the effects of lead compounds on mitochondrial function in relevant cell systems. The ability to incorporate a simple, rapid, multiplexed, predictive assay can make the detection of potential toxic effects easier to perform early on in the drug discovery process.
Here we demonstrate the automation and validation of such an assay in a high-density well format, using HepG2 and primary hepatocyte cell models.

Touratech expandable pannier bag made of Teflon coated Cordura. A perfect bag for the accessories you want close at hand, such as rain jackets, tools, snacks, etc. Bag has reinforced walls & bottom and straps to secure a tool roll so it won't bounce around while riding.
These sturdy bags unzip to double the capacity, and the attachment system has been specially designed for Zega and ZegaPro cases, as well as most aftermarket panniers.
This bag is universal and can also be fitted on almost any rack or platform with lashing loops!
This bag is the replacement for the discontinued pannier bag 055-1295.
No instructions are currently available for this product.
This is a nice alternative to the standard Ortlieb bag on top of the pannier that I usually use. On some rides, this solution works perfectly. What I use this bag for, mostly, is to keep things that I need right away during the course of the day. For me, that amounts to my GoPro camera accessories, extra camera batteries, lens cleaning solutions etc. Other good uses could be to carry snacks or a water bottle, or rain gear. Basically anything that you might to use throughout the day without having to dig down in your panniers to find it. After I mounted it, I trimmed the mounting straps so they weren't so long, but it is still removable. High quality gear, too.

I use this bag on my 2009 R1200GSADV rear rack. I secured it to the stock rack using the straps provided and it's solid as a rock. I keep my portable air pump, first-aid kit, some tools, sunglasses, inside it. Nice and easy to get at and compact-looking on the GSA. The expandability is great in case I have to stuff something larger inside like a fleece liner. It's a keeper.

Nine projects across the Chesapeake Bay watershed will receive $24.3 million in funding over the next two years as part of the Regional Conservation Partnership Program (RCPP), a program administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) National Resources Conservation Service (NRCS).
Four of the nine projects were funded through the Bay watershed's designation as a critical conservation area—a region with significant agricultural production that faces concerns of water quality and quantity. The Chesapeake Bay watershed is one of eight critical conservation areas located throughout the country. Totaling $19 million in funding, the four multi-state projects focus on watershed-wide restoration, ranging from restoring wetlands and forest buffers to rewarding dairy and livestock producers who implement practices that limit runoff from their farms.
The remaining five projects—localized state and county conservation initiatives in Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and West Virginia—will receive a total of $5.3 million in state-level RCPP funding.
The RCPP was established as part of the Agricultural Act of 2014—better known as the Farm Bill—and replaced regional conservation programs that were founded under previous Farm Bills, including the Chesapeake Bay Watershed Initiative (CBWI). Under this new program, qualified organizations, or "partners," can propose projects that implement a variety of conservation practices on privately-owned farmland and forested areas.
Nationally, the 115 selected projects will receive an estimated total of $372.5 million in funding. A majority of available funds were allocated to state and national projects, while 35 percent went to projects in critical conservation areas. Nearly 70 percent of all funded projects address either water quality or availability, with the remaining projects addressing additional concerns such as wildlife protection, energy use and soil quality.
A complete list of funded projects is available on the NRCS website.
Andy, my next-door neighbor, is a fisherman. We talk from time to time across our backyard decks. Andy has never asked me about the Chesapeake Bay Watershed Agreement signed in June 2014. But if he did, how would I explain it? Are the ten goals of the Agreement connected?
Of course they are. Think fish, think Chesapeake Bay, and the mind conjures rockfish, crabs and oysters - restored and protected. That's Goal 1, Sustainable Fisheries. What do fish, wildlife and other living things need to survive? Vital Habitats made up of restored underwater grasses, streams, forest buffers and tree canopy (Goal 2). Habitats require good Water Quality, which means reducing pollutant loads flowing into the Bay (Goal 3). But is water quality alone enough? Nope: Toxic Contaminants, such as mercury and PCBs, harm both wildlife and human health and must be reduced (Goal 4).
Are we finished? Not yet. Our good waters must remain healthy (Healthy Watersheds, Goal 5). Without increasing our leadership – citizens and elected officials committed to restoration – our efforts are for naught (Stewardship, Goal 6). Our Chesapeake Bay region is blessed with ecologically valuable and treasured lands that protect our waters and enhance our lives (Land Conservation, Goal 7).
What brings the magic of the Bay home most of all? Experiencing it – swimming, boating and fishing – which means increased Public Access (Goal 8). Future leadership is essential; our children must graduate from school with the knowledge and skills to protect and restore our lands and waters (Environmental Literacy, Goal 9). And our restoration efforts must account for changing climactic conditions and sea level rise (Climate Resiliency, Goal 10).
So, that's it: ten steps to a restored Chesapeake Bay. Have a good day, Andy.
The Chesapeake Bay Foundation once again gave the Chesapeake Bay a "D+" grade in its biennial State of the Bay report, with improvements in water quality offset by declines in fisheries.
This grade remains the same from the nonprofit's 2012 report. The score of 32 on a one-to-100 scale marks an improvement of one point since 2010 and of four points since 2008 but remains well short of the Foundation's goal of 70, representing an "A+" or a "saved Bay."
According to the report, four of the 13 indicators of Bay health showed signs of recovery: dissolved oxygen, water clarity, oyster populations and underwater grass abundance. Of those, dissolved oxygen showed the greatest improvement, with this year's "dead zone" - an area of little to no dissolved oxygen where aquatic life is unable to thrive - the smallest it has been in thirty years. But these advances were offset by declines blue crab and striped bass populations, as well as increases in phosphorous pollution.
Chesapeake Bay Foundation President William C. Baker attributes improvements in water quality to the "Clean Water Blueprint," or Total Maximum Daily Load - a comprehensive plan to reduce pollution going to the Bay and its rivers and streams.
"We have never before had this level of accountability and transparency in Bay restoration efforts," said Baker in a release. "Our children and grandchildren can inherit a restored Chesapeake Bay, but only if we continue the hard work and investments that will lead to success."
The Chesapeake Bay Program will publish Bay Barometer, its annual snapshot of watershed-wide health and restoration, later this month. The Bay Program is a voluntary partnership that includes the six watershed states of Delaware, Maryland, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia and West Virginia, the District of Columbia, the Chesapeake Bay Commission and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency representing the federal government.

Nearly 18 million people reside in the Chesapeake Bay region, with more moving to the area each year. Growing disputes over land use have conservationists working hard to protect the robust natural resources that can be found within the Bay region. A significant part of these efforts include developing and improving public access points as means for people to experience, explore and develop connections to the land, water and wildlife.
Nestled in between Accokeek Creek and Potomac Creek, Crow's Nest Natural Area Preserve in Stafford, Virginia serves as one of the state's highest land conservation priorities in the past 10 years. "This is a priority site because it's such a large intact ecosystem. You have thousands of acres of mature hardwood forest on the coastal plain in Virginia," explained Michael Lott, Crow's Nest Manager and Northern Region Steward for the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR).
In addition to around 2,200 acres of mature hardwood forest, the site boasts 750 acres of nearly pristine wetlands and more than 10 miles of hiking trails, and it acts as a safe haven for wildlife and countless viewing opportunities for critters such as migratory waterfowl, white-tailed deer, river otters and beavers.
The preserve and those who manage it have faced many obstacles over the past few decades, including population growth and development encroaching on the area. "In the 1970's, there were around 30,000 people in Stafford County; a few of the subdivisions were vacation homes for people in D.C. Now, the population is about 130,000. This is the best remaining tidal marsh in Stafford County, so our priority here is conservation," said Geoff Austin, Northern Region Operations Steward with DCR.
Despite the vastness of the preserve and the great potential it holds for environmental education and recreational opportunities, the property is largely closed to the public until further operational resources can be effectively implemented.
The dynamic duo of Lott and Austin dedicate 90 percent of their working hours toward maintaining the preserve and trying to make it accessible to the public, but one major hurdle stands in their way – a mile-and-a-half long access road. "The big obstacle is the access road to the [completed] parking lot. We need to raise the money to fix that road. That road has been there since the colonial era, it's been dug down and needs a lot of work before it's passable for cars," explained Austin. The team – with help from volunteers - keeps the trails clear, maintains the parking lot and plans to install proper trail signage once the road is completed.
Lott and Austin measure their success one victory - no matter the size - at a time, their latest being the installation of a handicap-accessible boat ramp to be opened to the public within the next couple of months. The ramp overlooks acres of tidal marsh, provides access to Accokeek Creek and lays adjacent to a half-mile trail complete with benches for wildlife observers. "It's a great birding spot," said Austin. The launch is part of a larger plan to connect a water trail system along the Potomac River.
DCR wants the public to be able to experience the preserve's natural wonder. "In the past, this landscape did not lend itself to farming very well, and so a lot of the soil we have out here is still very much intact. Researchers have said that throughout the mid-Atlantic and East Coast, you can't find soil like this in very many places anymore, which is why the forest out here is so productive," explained Lott. "A lot of the forest, particularly in the ravines, hasn't been logged intensively since the Civil War, so it's trending back toward mature forest. [For this reason] we keep the trails clear and have been holding open houses twice a year for five years now, so people have had the opportunity to see it and enjoy the trails."
Tending to nearly 3,000 acres of forest and wetlands is no simple task for two people, but the work is done out of a place of deep caring and passion for protecting and sharing the special places in life with the public. "I grew up in this area and it's nice to have an intact piece of hardwood [forest] that is going to be preserved in the area for years to come. It's great to be able to walk out there when I'm working or hunting and see the big trees; you don't see that in many other places in this area. As stewards of the land year-round you spend a lot of time here – it means a lot to be able to take care of this place." said Austin.

Kiss Surprise Wounded Vet With Home
Tuesday, July 23, 2013
Iconic rockers Kiss were in Cadott, Wisconsin, on Saturday night, July 20th, to perform at the Rock Fest. The band thrilled the crowd but really made a major impact when they teamed up with the Military Warriors Support Foundation to donate a new home to a wounded war veteran.
The wounded war veteran Roman Rivera and his wife were presented a mortgage free home during the group's set. Paul Stanley told the crowd, "We have special guests with us tonight I'd like to bring out . . . Roman Rivera and his wife Michelle, and Ken from Military Warriors Support Foundation, please join me out here. Roman is a Wisconsin native, everybody. He is also a decorated veteran. He was severely injured during his combat tour in Iraq by an improvised bomb. He is a tried-and-true hero."
Stanley added, "We have the privilege of presenting Roman and his family with a mortgage-free, two-story, four-bedroom, three-car attached garage home in Janesville, Wisconsin. Again, completely mortgage-free. Please join me in congratulating Roman, and thank you to everyone for their service to our country!"
The crowd went crazy and after hugging and receiving high fives, Rivera walked off the stage to fists pumps and the entire crowd chanting "U.SA., U.S.A., U.S.A."

Histone deacetylases (HDACs) play key roles in gene regulation by modifying the acetylation status of core histones as well as a number of non-histone regulatory proteins. Therefore, modulation of HDAC activities represents an emerging paradigm in treating diseases as diverse as cancer, asthma and neurodegeneration. Unfortunately, the biological relationships between specific HDACs and phenotype or disease state are poorly characterized and more effective tools are sought for defining these relationships. Here we describe the assay's utility in relevant cell and enzyme models with a variety of HDAC inhibitory (HDACi) compounds of varying structure.

Arcadia Biosciences is an entrepreneurial California agricultural biotech company seeking to earn carbon credits by modifying commodity crops for use in China and India. Eric Rey, Arcadia's CEO, faced a strategic inflection point in early September, 2008. The company had a plan to share carbon credits allocated by the United Nations Clean Development Mechanism Executive Board to China, for use of Arcadia's rice varieties, since they enabled farmers to reduce nitrogen fertilizer use, in turn lowering greenhouse gas emissions. But the company's proprietary traits for nitrogen use efficiency, salt tolerance, and water use efficiency also had more conventional paths to market based on licensing deals to large seed companies. Alternatively, Arcadia could acquire a seed company and develop and market its seed directly. A different near-term growth area involved commercializing enriched safflower oil which had undergone several proof of concept tests and for which Rey foresaw a clear market in nutritional supplements and functional foods. The case provides context on the company; describes advances in crops genetics focused to climate change and associated resource issues of fertilizer use, water use, and soil salinity; and poses strategic choices for a start-up company operating at the intersection of business, agriculture, and climate change.
