The head of a Texas oil dynasty joined the parade of wealthy political donors, aiming to flip the Senate to Republicans. By the time consultants were done with him, the war chest was drained and fraud allegations were flying
Barely open six months, Le Cep, a contemporary French restaurant proffering fine dining, is stirring up Fort Worth's culinary scene.
SALADO, Texas (AP) — Emergency crews are responding to a reported bridge collapse along an interstate in Central Texas.
The Bombay Co.'s former Fort Worth headquarters building has been sold, with private equity fund Diversified International Partners snapping up the seven-story, 122,828-square-foot structure at 550 Bailey St.
Downtown Fort Worth's dining scene is about to get spicier with the opening of a new restaurant featuring Latin-inspired coastal cuisine.
Tom Hund, executive vice president and chief financial officer at BNSF Railway Co., will retire during the first quarter of 2014 after 31 years in the railroad industry.
Hund will be replaced by Julie Piggott, currently vice president of planning and studies and controller.
"Over his years with BNSF, Tom has had a tremendous impact in leading the finance team. This leadership and his strategic thinking have been critical to the continued growth of our company. As a longstanding member of the executive team, he also played a formative role in shaping BNSF's Vision & Values and Leadership Model and in building core aspects of our culture. We thank Tom for his incalculable contribution to our company and recognize the legacy he is leaving," said Matthew K. Rose, chairman and chief executive officer.
Hund has been in the railroad industry since 1983, serving BNSF in multiple senior management and financial roles, and previously with Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railway, a predecessor railroad to BNSF. He has been chief financial officer since 1999.
Reflecting on his career, Hund said, "My years with this company have been beyond anything I could have imagined. The people, the culture and the rich heritage have been the things that mean the most to me and made my career here so satisfying. My wife Judy and I have made many lifelong friends, and we will be forever grateful for the opportunity to be part of the BNSF Railway family."
Piggott has served in her current role since 2009. She previously served as vice president, finance, and treasurer since 2006. Piggott joined BNSF in 1991 and has had various positions in finance, including successive roles as assistant vice president, Strategic and Financial Analysis; assistant vice president, Expedited Services, in Consumer Products; and assistant vice president and assistant controller. Prior to joining BNSF, she was with the accounting firm of Ernst & Young and Corporate BancServices.

PAM—Securing Linux Boxes Everywhere
For each service (such as login or SSH), you must define which checks will be done for each group. That list of actions is called a stack. Depending on the results of the actions in each stack, users will succeed or fail, and whatever they attempted to do will be allowed or rejected. You can specify each action in the stack for each service using a specific file at /etc/pam.d (the more current method) or by editing the single, catchall file /etc/pam.conf (the older method); in this article, we use the former method.
Remember that playing with configuration files can be dangerous to your health! A particularly nasty thing to do is remove all configuration files accidentally, because then you won't be able to log back in again. Make sure to back up all files before you start experimenting and have a live CD available just in case.
Each stack is built out of modules, executed sequentially in the given order. For each module, you can specify whether it's necessary (failure automatically denies access), sufficient (success automatically grants access) or optative (allows for alternative checks). Table 2 shows the actual control flags. The file for each service consists of a list of rules, each on its own line. (Longer lines can be split by ending with a \, but this is seldom required.) Lines that start with a hash character (#) are considered to be comments and, thus, are ignored. Each rule contains three fields: the context area (Table 1), the control flag (Table 2) and the module that will be run, along with possible (optional) extra parameters. Thus, the specification for the PAM checks for login would be found in the /etc/pam.d/login file.
The control flag field actually can be more complicated, but I won't cover all the details here. See Resources if you are interested. Also, you can use include, as in auth include common-account, which means to include rules from other files.
There is a special, catchall service called other, that is used for services without specific rules. A good start from a security point of view would be creating /etc/pam.d/other, as shown in Listing 2. All attempts are denied, and a warning is sent to the administrator. If you want to be more forgiving, substitute pam_unix2.so for pam_deny.so, and then the standard Linux authentication method will be used, although a warning will still be sent (Listing 3). If you don't care about security, substitute pam_permit.so instead, which allows entry to everybody, but don't say I didn't warn you.
Finally, give the files in /etc/pam.d a quick once-over. If you find configuration files for applications you don't use, simply rename the files, so PAM will fall back to your "other" configuration. Should you discover later that you really needed the application, change the configuration file back to its original name, and everything will be okay again.
Listing 2. A safe "other" definition forbids all generic access in absence of specific rules. The pam_deny.so module always returns failure, so all access attempts will be rejected, and pam_warn.so sends a warning to the sysadmin.
# # default; deny all accesses # auth required pam_deny.so auth required pam_warn.so account required pam_deny.so password required pam_deny.so password required pam_warn.so session required pam_deny.so
Listing 3. A PAM definition, equivalent to the standard UNIX security rules. Note: on some distributions, you might need to use pam_unix.so instead.
# # standard UNIX minimalistic rules # auth required pam_unix2.so account required pam_unix2.so password required pam_unix2.so session required pam_unix2.so
Listing 4. The /etc/pam.d/sshd specifies security rules for SSH connections. The pam_access.so module was added to the standard configuration to provide further checks.
auth required pam_unix2.so auth required pam_nologin.so account required pam_unix2.so account required pam_access.so session required pam_limits.so session required pam_unix2.so session optional pam_umask.so password requisite pam_pwcheck.so cracklib password required pam_unix2.so use_authtok

I just wanted to point out the availability of the swekey pam module.

The staff was very nice and they were able to provide rooms (3) for our family that were in close proximity. The rooms were clean. Good variety of items available for the breakfast.
Good location. Offered Breakfast.
It's a really old Motel with the rooms having outside entrances. Just felt a little unsafe. We arrived at 1 a.m. there were really sketchy people smoking and hanging out in the parking lot.
Good location, nice room.
Heat light in bathroom had no visible switch to turn it on. An ottoman blocked the path from the bed to the bathroom, so needed to be moved to prevent tripping in the dark.
pool, smoking rooms, oversize parking lot, delicious and affordable restaurant/bar steps from the motel,
no ice machine(that we could find)
no coffee pot in room
Was a very nice inn, the kind of place for a romantic weekend. Breakfast was excellent.
Kind of grossed out by old soap left in the shower.
Quaint and quiet when the moderately distant train is not going by. Very pleasant and attentive staff. Nice breakfast with allowance for my dietary needs.
Love the idea of a motor lodge that gives five star service.
It's location was great
The room was cramped and the fridge did not work
CLEAN, EXCELLENT LOCATION. STAFF WAS VERY FRIENDLY. tHE OWNER SEEMED VERY KNOWLEDABLE AND WAS SUPER HELPFUL AND FRIENDLY
HDTV, nice room, accessible outlets, wi-fi
Morning noise from neighborhood
Very cozy.
The mini fridge smelled of mold and there was hair on the wall in the shower:/
A decently clean place to stay for a night or two. Highway traffic noise is bothersome near the front of the building, but for the money and compared to similar inns in the area, it was pretty good.
Traffic Noise
Old bathtub
The location was great.
The water pressure from the shower was poor and the spray not very even.
Great location right across the street from Matt Knight Court. Go Ducks! Great coffee. The room was quiet. Like that breakfast was included.
Staff where just OK---nothing special. The mattress was thin and not very comfortable.
Conveniently located. Room was spacious and clean. It was evident they were upgrading the rooms. Great internet access
Cluttered parking lot with remodeling supplies. They needed a second desk person in the AM for check out. Towel rack was falling down.
The friendly hotel staff and the clean room.
There was nothing to dislike about this hotel.
The spaciousness of the motel room. Extra hard bed. Smelly Room, lacked outlets, got there and coffee cold that was in the coffee, e
It did have a newer tv, it was nice, HAD a sorry continental breakfast.

Anthurium with double spathe. -Pics-.
Hello! I just wanted to share with you guys my new Anthurium. It has a red, double spathe that made me fell in love with it. Now i am wondering if this is the characteristic that point to a certain cultivar. Or maybe, is there any species that produces this double spathe?
I found it in a Plant Fair here in Puerto Rico. And it seems like it is a certain variety and not an abnormaly in a specific plant, because, apart from my plant, there was another plant with the same double spathe. Any one can tell me more about this.
Another curious thing is that the bigger spathe is Butterfly-shapped, while the smaller one is more heart-shapped.
Here are the pics:
Any thoughts?
Thank you,
Jorge Joel...
I bought one the other day for the same reason : )
I have been informed that it is a bit of a trait for these A andreanum hybrids. A few pics..
Hello Ed! Ohh Yours is very similar to mine, so i guess it has to be an especific hybrid or cultivar. I have never seen this before. The interresting thing here is that i am in Puerto Rico and you are in Australia. I wonder where this hybrid comes.

Shoulda Robbed a Bank
Drug Sentences Driving Federal Prison Population Growth, Government Report Finds. By Phillip Smith, Sept. 13, 2012. StoptheDrugWar.org - A comment:
|What I saw during my 5 years in Federal Prison. by UndertheRadar (not verified), September 20, 2012, 12:33pm. I stayed 5 years in Federal Prison for a marijuana offense. While I was there, I watched armed bank robbers come and go in as little as 17 months. One lad was in for armed Post Office robbery with a sawed off shotgun...his stay, 20 months. When I went to the parole board after 3 years 'behind the wall,' I pointed this out to the panel members. Their response, "You must understand that yours was a very serious offense." I laughed about that for 2 more years (as I still sat in prison), then wrote my book: Shoulda Robbed a Bank. When I was in, the entire Federal Prison population was just over 28,000. Drug offenders made up 53% of that number. I see today that population has risen to over 218,000. Prison is big business. It used to be called 'slavery.' Please read Shoulda Robbed a Bank. I need the money... It's available at Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Smashwords.

The man who demanded a recount
A vegetarian, cycle-riding opponent of Nato: Bjorn Lomborg was as green and as left as they come. Th
A vegetarian, cycle-riding opponent of Nato: Bjorn Lomborg was as green and as left as they come. Th
by Jason Cowley Published
One afternoon, in February 1997, Bjorn Lomborg was flicking through a copy of Wired magazine in a Los Angeles bookshop when he came upon an interview with the American economist Julian Simon. Back then, Lomborg was a self-described "left-wing Greenpeace activist": he accepted most of the orthodoxies of the environmental movement about climate change, the deterioration of the ozone layer, air pollution, deforestation, species extinction, overpopulation and the depletion of natural resources. Unless we altered our behaviour, he believed, we would soon be confronted with imminent environmental catastrophe. But here was Simon saying that much of our supposed knowledge about the environment was based on prejudice, preconceptions and poor statistics.
Lomborg was intrigued. On his return to Denmark, where he was associate professor of statistics at Arhus University, he gathered his brightest students into a study group. The intention was to destroy Simon's thesis through the rigorous application of statistics. "What we discovered changed my life for ever," Lomborg, now 37, told me when I met him in Copenhagen. "For much of what Simon said about the environment was true and much of what we as Greens believed was false - that, for instance, the air in the developed world is becoming less, not more, polluted. I realised that if I was wrong in what I believed about the environment, I was not the only one."
Lomborg contacted a Danish newspaper, the centre-left Politiken, and offered to write a series of articles. His aim was not "to discredit green activists so much as help them think more clearly about the issues at hand". They did not respond well. Eco-campaigners throughout Scandinavia denounced Lomborg as a fanatic and apologist for capitalist excess. A website, anti-lomborg.com, was set up to disparage him.
In 1998, Lomborg published a book, a statistically dense elaboration of his articles. In 2001, it was revised, substantially updated and republished by Cambridge University Press as The Skeptical Environmentalist, in which he argued that for much of the past 50 years humankind had experienced unprecedented improvement in almost every welfare indicator: we live longer and healthier lives, we are richer and more literate, we enjoy more liberties and freedoms, and world poverty and hunger are slowly declining. The "colossal sums" governments planned to spend in an attempt to reduce global warming would, he wrote, "be money ill spent". Above all, he said, liberal democratic capitalism was good for the environment, especially when compared to the old command economies of the former Soviet bloc. We were emphatically not killing our planet.
The Skeptical Environmentalist is perhaps the most important book about the environment since Rachel Carson's Silent Spring (1962) awakened the world to the dangers of unrestrained economic growth. It is certainly the most trenchant, and has led to the worldwide vilification of Lomborg. Scientific American published a 12-page special report with the sole intention of discrediting him. Nature magazine accused him of the environmental equivalent of Holocaust denial. Even E O Wilson, one of the great thinkers of our time, expressed public regret that a distinguished academic press should have published such a book.
Yet Lomborg has become something of a hero to all those who value bold, sceptical freethinking - even more so since the Danish Committee on Scientific Dishonesty accused him this year "of fabricating data, selectively and surreptitiously discarding unwanted results, of the deliberately misleading use of statistical methods, consciously distorted interpretation of the conclusions, plagiarisation of others' results or publications, and deliberate misrepresentation of others' results".
This was, in effect, academic criticism as character assassination. Lomborg has prepared a long written reply. He is supported by much of the Danish media - which consider the committee's decision an assault on scientific freedom of speech - by Cambridge University Press, and by commentators in Britain and the US. One portrayed him as a latter-day Galileo, under threat of being burnt at the stake of scientific unreason and eco-fundamentalism.
Bjorn Lomborg is an unlikely hate figure for the environmental movement. For a start, he is very green. He is openly gay and a vegetarian, he does not own a motor-car (a bicycle is his preferred mode of transport) and he neither drinks alcohol nor smokes. He still describes himself as "a liberal leftist with a strong concern for the environment". In person, he is candid and engaging. With his long blond fringe and fey manner, he could be mistaken for a member of a boy band - albeit one now rather exhausted after years on the pop circuit - rather than a career academic (he is at present director of the state-funded Environmental Assessment Institute in Copenhagen).
When I met him for dinner, at a mediocre pizzeria in central Copenhagen, he arrived, breathlessly, on his bicycle and was dressed - in clumpy white sneakers and a heavy red jumper - as casually as any of his students. At first, he seemed excessively camp and rather boyish; he confessed he chose the restaurant because he "just adores pizza and Coca-Cola, and the pizzas here are just so great". Later, he told me about how he had grown up in Alborg, in northern Jutland, as a "very academic teenager, clever in a slightly nerdy way, awkward, the kind of guy who would always be picked last for the football team".
Lomborg speaks good, idiomatic English with a pronounced American accent, which he picked up during a gap year at the University of Georgia. It was there that, as well as becoming a more open, adventurous spirit and accepting his sexuality, he had what he grandly describes as his political awakening. "I didn't have big academic aspirations at the time, and became very caught up in the peace movement," he says. "I was worried about nuclear weapons, I wanted to change the world and, once back home, I became heavily involved in the protests against Nato, and that kind of thing." After studying political science, he took a PhD in statistics and would have been "happy to have spent the rest of my career doing obscure work that was read by about 50 people" had he not that afternoon entered the bookshop in LA. That, at any rate, is how he tells it.
John Gray, a London School of Economics professor and regular NS contributor, argues that Lomborg "packages himself as an open-minded thinker, but what he's really selling is another version of the prevailing myth of progress. The message of his book is that humanity can have everything it wants so long as it adopts a market-based economic system and uses the best technologies. The clear implication is that there is no need to restrain human ambitions in order to protect the environment; it can look after itself. In effect, this is a recycled version of the technological utopianism that's always been popular in the US, and explains why he is so feted by big business."
Greens, many would say, have myths of their own: for example, that a human population of the current size can subsist mainly on forms of energy such as wind power, or that genetically modified organisms are bound to be bad for human health. "But these green myths," says Gray, "seem to me less harmful than Lomborg's progressive evangelism, which offers an hallucinatory vista of unending human advance when what's most needed from human beings at the moment is a bit of humility and self-restraint."
The green activist Rory Spowers, author of Rising Tides: a history of the environmental revolution (Canongate), says that when Lomborg's book appeared, he received "more airtime and column inches than any other journalist within the environmental debate, not only by the New York Times, the Economist and the Wall Street Journal, but by the BBC, too. Now, an increasingly well-informed public finds that all was not as it seemed; that by turning to Lomborg for an apparently objective and dispassionate account, one is only contributing to that expanding web of disinformation known as 'greenwash'. Rather than undermining the environmental movement, the most ambitious greenwash project to date has only ended up by supporting it."
One of the most persistent myths about Lomborg is that he is a polemicist, not a scientist; a career contrarian rather than a disinterested scholar - Spowers dismissed him as a "journalist". In truth, there is no such thing as unrivalled objectivity in science as there is in, say, arithmetic; scientific research is informed and constrained by the social and economic milieu in which it is undertaken, by the allegiances and prejudices, however unconscious, of the scientist himself, and by issues of funding.
Contrary to what is often said, The Skeptical Environmentalist was peer reviewed before publication. "I was made aware of Bj0rn Lomborg through an eminent American economist who knew that he was looking for an international publisher of his original Danish book," Lomborg's editor, Chris Harrison of CUP, told me. "When the English translation landed on my desk, I was myself very sceptical but I didn't think I should reject it without sending it out for review. I sent it out to professors in the UK and in America with expertise in climate change, biodiversity, environmental policy and economics. Rather to my surprise, all four recommended publication. Had it been my decision alone, I probably would have rejected it."
Harrison denies the eco-fundamentalists' claim that Lomborg is in the pay of corporate interests. Lomborg, he adds, "is not afraid of an argument and he certainly enjoys debate. During the editing process I argued a lot with him myself. One of the things I like about the book, and why it has done so well, is that it forces a reaction from the reader. One way or the other, we all have strong views and we're not too sure whom to trust."
The Lomborg controversy is in many ways an allegory of our human search for truth. We want to know what is best for ourselves and for our world, but we do not ultimately know who or which organisation to trust. Events in Iraq showed that we could hardly trust our own government. So whom can we trust when daily we are battered by bad news about the environment and confused by conflicting forecasts?
The environmental activists have nothing but contempt for Lomborg. Mark Lynas, the author of a forthcoming book on global warming, recounted in a recent issue of the Ecologist how he had thrown a pie in Lomborg's face during a bookshop reading in Oxford. "A basic sponge cake topped with two inches of spray-can cream . . . met its target with a satisfying splat." "Pieing" is the preferred method of attack by anarchists. It is, as Lynas points out, "intended as a relatively light-hearted way to bring pompous and powerful people down a peg". But can Lomborg really be accused of either power or pomposity? One should not forget that a pie was thrown in the face of the maverick Dutch politician Pim Fortuyn shortly before he was murdered by an animal rights activist. As the verbal attacks on Lomborg have become more vehement, so he has begun, certainly since the murder of Fortuyn, to worry about his safety and about whether there are people out there who find what he says intolerable.
Yet Lomborg remains committed to his war against eco-fundamentalism. He is an optimist, an unapologetic believer in progress. Western-style affluence, he believes, is important because it offers the possibility of "adaptive capacity" - the ability of humans to adapt to new challenges, such as the need to discover new sources of fuel, as and when they arise. The militancy of many of his detractors serves only to strengthen the conviction that he is right. "I was taught that if you have a good case, you should pound the case," he says. "If you have a bad case, you should pound the table. It seems to me that my opponents like nothing more than to pound the table. It's their way of avoiding the substance of my argument."
Lomborg is used to being recognised on the streets of Copenhagen, where he lives alone in a large apartment, and to continual criticism. "I don't want this to be my life," he says. "One day I hope to be able to move on from discussing the environment, maybe slip back into the shadows of academic life. But for now my mission remains to tell people that if they want to worry, they should worry about the right things. I think it's a shame when I hear a mother worrying about pesticides in food while forgetting to tell her son to wear a cycle helmet when he goes out on his bike. Understanding statistics is to understand the true nature of risk. The end of the world, I'm pleased to say, is not nigh."
"Hey, believe me," he says as we part. "It's not that bad."
The philosopher Daniel Dennett says that science is "the test of truth". The validity of that test depends on the rigorous application of scientific method. That is why the Danish committee tried to discredit Lomborg by first discrediting his method, his way of doing science. Because if his methods are wrong, then so are his findings, making him less a sceptical environmentalist than someone who is just plain wrong. But the eco-fundamentalists, as well as Lomborg, must be willing to accept the test of truth. It is after all they who demand far-reaching changes in western politics and lifestyle on the basis of data that remains at best uncertain and controversial. Lomborg's opponents should apply the same rigour that they demand from him, because somewhere between his scepticism and their dogmatism must lie the truth about the consequences to our planet of the human demand for progress.

Well I guess I won't return my NC.
The issues it has when it is plugged in were getting to me.
Like the multiple letters when typing, and the touch screen freaking out and zooming in and out like you have 2 fingers on it.
This gives me a Huge deal of hope!

Joseph Bienaimé Caventou Chemist
Joseph Bienaimé Caventou (1795–1877) was a French chemist. He was a professor at the École de Pharmacie (School of Pharmacy) in Paris. He collaborated with Pierre-Joseph Pelletier in a Parisian laboratory located behind an apothecary. He was a pioneer in the use of mild solvents to isolate a number of active ingredients from plants, making a study of alkaloids from vegetables. Among their successes were the isolation of the following compounds: Quinine sulfate later proved to be an important remedy for the disease malaria. Quinine is the active anti-malarial ingredient in the bark of cinchona tree. Neither of the partners chose to patent their discovery of this compound, releasing it for everybody to use. In 1823 they discovered nitrogen in alkaloid compounds. Other compounds they discovered include colchicine and veratrine. The crater Caventou on the Moon is named after him.

Minnesota GreenCorps
Launched in 2009, Minnesota GreenCorps is a statewide program to help preserve and protect Minnesota's environment while training a new generation of environmental professionals. This program places AmeriCorps members with local governments, educational institutions, and non-profit organizations around Minnesota, where they will serve for 11 months on focused environmental projects. The program is coordinated by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency.
Minnesota GreenCorps is an AmeriCorps program. Funding is provided through a grant from ServeMinnesota and the Corporation for National and Community Service.
Including the current program year, more than 75 AmeriCorps members have served with 46 organizations across the state. Former and current host site organizations include cities, counties, public schools, universities, watershed districts, and non-profit organizations.
Some results from the first two years of the program include:
- More than 20,000 community members engaged or educated by Minnesota GreenCorps members
- 11-57 percent increase in recycling at participating schools
- 48,187 trees inventoried
- 397,296 kWh avoided
- More than 90 green practices and technologies implemented by participating sites and partners
In the first two years of the program, our members have mobilized over 2,600 community volunteers on service projects around the state, including assistance with environmental fairs, community cleanups, waste sorts, tree inventory/citizen foresters, invasive species removal, tree plantings, gardening, rain garden building.
For more information
For more information, please e-mail: email@example.com
Member spotlight
Currently there are 28 Minnesota GreenCorps members serving at 25 host sites around the state.
2014: Member - Allison Granos
A Green Transportation member hosted by Three Rivers Park District, an organization that serves suburban Hennepin County.
About me.I've lived in Minnesota my whole life, growing up in Excelsior then attending St. Olaf College (Northfield). I graduated in 2014 with a degree in Chemistry and an even greater interest in pursuing a career in environmental health after experiencing all of St. Olaf's green initiatives and taking many environmentally focused classes. In my free time I love to enjoy Minnesota's lakes, read, rock climb, and hike.
About my service. I am a Green Transportation Member hosted by Three Rivers Park District, an organization that serves suburban Hennepin County by promoting environmental stewardship through its 27,000 acres of parks and trails. My service focuses on Three Rivers' continually expanding network of regional trails. I will be working on analyzing gaps between the trails and locations such as Metro Transit stops, Park and Ride lots, schools, and large corporations, in hopes of making bike commuting via the trails feasible for more people. Additionally, I will focus on promoting the use of the regional trails for bike commuting through community outreach to the people of suburban Hennepin County, including kids, people working near the trails, and Three Rivers employees.
Why I serve. After graduating from college, I wasn't sure what my next step should be, but I knew I was passionate about the environment and wanted to make a difference however possible. So when I stumbled upon the GreenCorps program, I thought it sounded like a perfect opportunity for me to explore the environmental field while gaining valuable work experience and significantly impacting my community. The GreenCorps program's emphasis on professional development will prepare me for a future environmental career, and hopefully by the end of my service I will be able to determine what career that will be.
My favorite place to visit in Minnesota. Gooseberry Falls State Park and the North Shore of Lake Superior in general. I love the endless hiking and exploring possibilities!
The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) has started to accept applications for the 2015-2016 year of the Minnesota GreenCorps program.

unicode possibilities
It would be nice if cl-user would display unicode input for CJK text. With PCL and On Lisp getting new printings in Japan, it might be beneficial to attract more brain-share from that side of the world. Would this be considered out of cl-user.net's scope?

As an unsigned artist grinding her way up from the bottom, New Zealand's Ladi6 can't help but feel a little jealous of women whose rich fathers keep them dripping in jewels. Nonetheless, she knows that if she spends enough time "churning butter," she'll eventually end up with Diamonds. (Or really watery butter… one of the two.) This officially remixed version of the record features brand new production by D.C.-repping reader fave Oddisee. In place of Parks's upbeat original boardwork, he crafts a more sedate synth backdrop for Ladi's vocals. On the back, Odd steps out from behind the boards to deliver an ambitious, insightful closing 16. Interest piqued? This remix, isn't attached to a larger set, but fans can find the album version on Ladi6's Automatic LP, out now in stores and online.

I want to have a porcelain or cast iron wall mount utility sink for my laundry room to use with a wall mount faucet. I found some made by Kohler and American Standard, but they don't have great reviews and are very expensive. Where can I find something similar or even an antique? thanks.
Look on eBay, but don't just look for a "utility sink." Look for a "farm sink" too, because often those are single-bowl wall-mount sinks like what you're describing. Do a search on antique farm sink, then another on vintage farm sink, and so on. You will have to craft your search to leave out the bad hits--for instance, write -faucet (minus symbol plus the word faucet, no space between them) to prevent faucets from coming up in response to your search, and so on.
As of now, a search on "antique utility sink" (no quotes) brought up one sink that might fit the bill:
And "antique farm sink" brought up a bunch of sinks, most of which have at least one drainboard, like this:

Epsom Salt Uses
In the very early springtime, I learned years ago to apply epsom salt around the dripline of my azaleas and rhodies to encourage blooming - and it does work well. I am wondering if anyone can comment on using epsom salt around my stubborn Lady in Red hydrangea that refuses to blossom?
Also, some growers warn to keep hydrangeas out of the full sun, and others say the opposite. Confusing! My best flowering hydrangeas get morning and afternoon sunshine. Because Lady in Red was so "pricey" I carefully planted it to receive half and half - up against a woodsy area. Thanks to all who have responded. Donna
Well....Magnesium sulfate(Epsom Salt)is not considered an importent nutrient for flower bud set/production (its primary usage/need in the plant is for chlorophyll production).With that said, if you like how it makes your plants look and bloom, DO NOT change...plants don't read the books:-)>
BUT...it is a common, underutilized nutrient in the garden that can really help keep your plants "GREEN". From the standpoint of a healthier,greener plant...you could say that it was helping induce flowers(from an indirect standpoint it helped "encourage blooming").
From a minor nutrient standpoint, Hydrangea macro. does love Iron and I do think the Epsom salt would be beneficial also. A quick remedy to see how they react is a foliar application....1.5-2 Tbsp.s Epsom Salts per gallon of water. spray to drip in the EARLY MORNING hours (1/4 Tsp of dish soap...just a little bit... as a wetting agent)
Epsom's salts (magnesium sulphate) can be beneficial to plants that have a high magnesium demand - tomatoes and roses come to mind immediately - and it does promote the development of chlorophyl as schmoo mentions, but there is nothing in this amendment that improves flowering ability. And the routine use of an amendment like this can lead to an overabundance of specific elements that could produce counterproductive results unless you perform regular soil tests.
In a PNW climate, partial shade is desirable for most hydrangeas - morning sun and afternoon shade is ideal. Too much shade can result in impaired bloom and too much sun will result in daily wilting in summer and bleaching of the foliage. It often takes a season or so for new shrubs to settle in, establish a good root system and perform as described. I wouldn't be overly worried about LinR's lack of blooms unless it suffered any winter dieback (possible in our bizarre weather last winter) or it is receiving excessive fertilization. Both of these can affect bloom potential. Most likely it just needs additional time.
And I'd avoid applying any sort of amendments or fertilizing unnecessarily. Test you soil first and apply only as the test indicates deficiencies are present. FWIW, a regular mulching with compost or other quality organic matter will reduce the need for pretty much any supplemental amending or fertilizing and is most beneficial for the soil organisms.

AFRICA/KENYA - Works begin on a new center for disabled children in the village of Kandisi
Nairobi (Agenzia Fides) - In the small village of Kandisi, 25 km from the capital Nairobi, at the Opera Don Orione mission in Kenya, works have begun regarding the construction of the physiotherapy and rehabilitation Center for children with disabilities. According to information sent to Fides Agency, there is already a center of horticulture where boys and girls with disabilities socialize, learn how to develop their skills in a human and religious context that promotes their dignity.
The Centre under construction will complement and expand this type of activity, so as to ensure that these people receive assistance and help.
The realization of these works is made possible thanks to the contribution of some benefactors who support the efforts of the Don Orione Fathers, who in this part of Kenya take care of a parish that welcomes many villagers of ethnic Masai. In Kenya, the Church runs 2,805 health care facilities, of which 86 centers for the elderly, disabled and handicapped. (SL) (Agenzia Fides 23/07/2014)

While everyone's focused on price movement, a few other items to ponder....
1. New SodaStream commercial up on YouTube - just search for Bubble Love SodaStream and you'll see it
2. It was appearing that SodaStream's search engine trending would not match 2013. Since the Super Bowl, not only has it met, but blown away all time search volume. If you go to Google Trends, search SodaStream it will show you the global historic trend, then you can segment by country, time period, etc. The trend is your friend.
3. SodaStream consumables are rising the charts in Amazon's top 100 of kitchen & dining. Traditionally out of the top 100, bottles are now firmly at #40 and have been rising the charts steadily confirming consumable usage.
Good luck, off to make myself a liter of 1/2 Country Time Lemonade, 1/2 Crystal Light Strawberry Energy. That's right, we can customize with ours! ;-) (Open platform)
Sentiment: Strong Buy
I drank 2 bottles of 2 liters carbonated drink in 1 week, and gained 10 pounds, I won't say which brand, but it's definitely not Sodastream, now I have to work my #$%$ off to lose that weight, never again I drink sugar carbonated drink. Sodastream is going to be on my kitchen counter from now on.
We have two machines, soon to go for three to include the outdoor entertainment area. Now, we realize that skews the machine sales vs the flavor and carbonator sales, but SODA can live with that.
Just be sure to keep a good amount of SODA shares put away for your future. When home carbonator sales are 25 percent of worldwide beverage, SODA can have grown thousands and thousands of time over.
Yup...I like 50% sugar free energy and 50% sugar free grapefruit...!
Nothing against sugar....just sayin..!
Diet Pink Grapefruit is awesome.

Yorick vs. Leona.
She can hug turret all day long. E and W will continue to harass until the minion wave with Promoted boss minion remove turret protection in ~2 seconds. Exhaust? That's ok. Yorick still has 3 unexhausted minions hitting Leona, slowing her, healing him, while he runs away till his CD's are back. And then repeats again. She has no sustain, and Yorick will whittle her down to nothing. Attack him? Minion wave caps tower. Attack minions? He beats the snot out of Leona. GG.
And yes, tanky Yorick is what wins bots. A Triforce tin foil Yorick can't 1v2 or 1v3, and if he dies, he's just lost his tower and doesn't have the tankiness to dive it and take it back without help.
Frozen Berserker
I just played with Nasus and even without a huge amount of stacks I was still able to dish out huge damage and take on multiple people at once. It took 3 people to take me off my point and finally kill me. I may of been 4/10/8 (it's hard to kill Leblanc, Twitch, and Caitlin when they can get away so easily) but really since they constantly had to get 3 people to kill me and take back bot my team kept getting other points.
bot lane yorick is countered by singed/trundle
good day
if you want someone that just won't die...
Singed is a beast in that regard.
I've been playing a lot of Jarvan lately, and he's actually a very good defender. Pack garrison, and just wait for someone to come in range of your tower. Ult, garrison, and you have a free kill.
Alistar is one of THE best defenders in my opinion. With his ult up he can hold a point against 3-4 enemies for an almost ungodly amount of time, allowing your team time to cap a different point, or come to his aid. I personally don't play him, but I group with a guy who does and he's simply awesome with him.
I've successfully held off three with Morg many times before.
Other than her, the only other champ who comes to mind is Alistar. I hate playing against him. Something about my brain just breaks whenever I have to attack a point he is defending.
Hands down I vote Maokai. I've seen a maokai hold vs 3 for the entirety of the time it takes me to leisurely wander from bottom to top. It's insane. He can also clear minions, has great sustain, and also has ranged harass.
Heimer, just build him right.
