The BLM Oil and Gas Management program is one of the most important mineral leasing programs in the Federal government. Domestic production from over 63,000 Federal onshore oil and gas wells accounts for 11 percent of the Nation's natural gas supply and five percent of its oil.
Oil and Gas Leasing Reform--Overview of land use planning, master leasing plans, and lease parcel review (12 pages, PDF)
Comparison of Process Changes--2 page side-by-side comparison of current and proposed leasing reform policy
A significant portion of funding in the BLM Oil and Gas program is used to fulfill the Federal government's trust responsibilities to American Indian Tribes and individual Indian mineral owners. The BLM supervises operational activities on 3,700 Indian oil and gas leases, and provides advice on leasing and operational matters to the Bureau of Indian Affairs, Indian Tribes, and Indian mineral owners.
The Oil and Gas program also processes applications for the permits required to develop leased resources. The most common of these is the Application for Permit to Drill (APD). Operators or permit agents can use the BLM's electronic permitting system (a form of E-Commerce, or EC), to submit oil and gas permit applicaitons and reports via the Internet.
Documents that may be submitted electronically include:
For more information about this program, click here.
Under the direction of the Energy Policy Act of 2005, the BLM has also established seven Federal Permit Processing Pilot Offices, where improvements in coordinating permit processing among Federal agencies and inspection & enforcement can be tested.
Pilot Offices have been established in these BLM Field Offices, which together receive more than 70 percent of the APDs each year:
The Pilot Project is a vehicle for fostering innovation, creating efficient management processes, and testing new and emerging technologies.
A report summarizing interim results from the first two years of the project is available here.

Jackson Scores Late to Rally Women's Soccer Past 22nd Ranked Queens
September 15, 2013
MISENHEIMER, NC - Aaliyah Jackson's goal with 2:54 left in regulation gave the Pfeiffer University women's soccer team (2-3-0) a dramatic 3-2 victory over #22 Queens (4-1) on a warm and sunny Sunday afternoon. The Royals scored twice in a 5:03 span late in the second half to erase a 2-0 deficit, but the Lady Falcons rallied late for their second consecutive victory overall and third straight win over Queens.
Pfeiffer scored just under three minutes into the match on Hannah Hill's first strike of the season. Hill took a brilliant crossing pass from Jackson and easily beat the Royals keeper to take the early advantage. The assist was Jackson's first career helper. The half finished about as evenly played as possible, with each team taking four shots and two corner kicks.
In the 64th minute, Pfeiffer took what appeared to be a commanding 2-0 lead when Kayla Rodriguez corralled a long pass and sent it to Brae Buster who scored for the third time in five games, beating keeper Jessyca Young from just outside the box. In the 76th minute, Caitlyn Rodrigues put the Royals on the board when Ashley Osiecki sent a centering pass in front of the net that Rodrigues put in with her left foot for her sixth goal of the young season. Just over five minutes later, Queens seized all the momentum when Kelli Gottry put her shot past Pfeiffer goalkeeper Kate Halligan in the bottom right corner off a pass from Cassandra Nelson. The Lady Falcons would regroup and put together a perfect offensive possession in the 87th minute as Rodriguez fed Jackson for the winner. The assist was Rodriguez's second of the contest as she sent it through a crowded box to Jackson who put it past a Royal defender into the open net. Queens was unable to get anything going in the final moments of the game as the Lady Falcons secured the victory.
"I was really happy with how we fought and how we came together after giving up those two quick goals," said Head Coach Elijah Denton. "We played at a high level today and competed against one of the best teams in the area, so it means a lot to come away with the win."
For the match, the Lady Falcons held a 10-9 advantage in shots. Queens took four corners and Pfeiffer had two. Halligan made four stops to improve to 2-3 while Young made three saves in the Royals first loss of the season.
Kaitlin Sampson and Buster each took two shots for the Lady Falcons who return to action on Saturday when they travel to King to open conference play at 2 p.m.

Comments about Loaded Precision Loaded AMX Stem:
Designed for dirt jumpers, but with the short stem/wide bar combo everyone's loving, this stem is on my trail bike and I love it. It's super short and pretty lightweight, especially for the price.
A solid stem, in a variety of colors.

Comments about Loaded Precision Loaded AMX Stem:
I'd swapped forks to another frame and when swapped back i needed a stem with a lower stack height but also burley enough for a DJ frame, this was one of the lowest stack heights, looks good and is solid. It's probably around 37mm or so stack height. Good value too.

We are thrilled to announce the recipients of the 2012 ASPCA Humane Awards. This group of outstanding people and animals includes a rescue dog with more than 5.5 million views on YouTube and a 10-year-old horse advocate who has appeared before Congress.
The 2012 ASPCA Humane Award winners include:
ASPCA Dog of the Year
Abandoned in a trash heap, Fiona, an 11-year-old Poodle mix, was sick, covered in dirt, matted, infested with fleas and blind in both eyes. A Los Angeles-based animal rescue group Hope for Paws, came to Fiona's aid, and with the help of hundreds of donors all over the world, they raised the funds for Fiona's surgery. Fiona's miraculous story of survival has since garnered more than 5.5 million views online, a testament to what can be accomplished when homeless animals get a second chance.
ASPCA Cat of the Year
Scooter the cat was found on the street with no use of his back legs. He was rushed to Harts Run Veterinary Hospital in Fox Chapel, Pennsylvania. Visitors to the hospital instantly fell in love with the fluffy black and white kitten, and donated funds to purchase him a custom-made wheeled mobility device. Scooter now visits a nursing home and rehabilitation hospital every week and serves as a constant inspiration to the elderly and to patients who lack mobility due to injuries and strokes.
ASPCA "Tommy P. Monahan" Kid of the Year
After hearing about the inhumane and cruel practice of horse slaughter, now 10-year-old Declan Gregg of Greenland, New Hampshire, decided to raise his voice and get involved. Declan started his own blog, Children 4 Horses, to spread the word about horse advocacy issues. His dedication to horse advocacy brought him to the nation's capital twice in recent months, where he represented more than 1,000 children from the U.S. and abroad by presenting the letters to legislators in Congress.
Meet all the winners of the 2012 ASPCA Humane Awards! Do you know of a heroic pet or a person who dedicates his or her life to animals? Tell us about your hero in the comments!
And stay tuned to the blog for photos from the annual Humane Awards Luncheon, sponsored by the Hartville Group, Inc., on November 8 in New York City.
Fantastic dog story, but why no cat picture?
This cat has captured the love of people all over; he was born without a pelvis or hind legs and despite having a prolapsed anus twice, he just keeps on going! Please consider him for next year; he's such an inspiration!
I have been following Eldad and Audrey for about four years now on their website and on Facebook! They are absolutely amazing people and without them many, many animals would never, ever be alive today and or have the opportunity to be adopted into a loving and forever home! I am going to donate to them this weekend, write a letter and mail it with a donation! If we all continue to support Hope For Paws Eldad and Audrey and their helpers can do what they so lovingly do and that is saving animals every single day! Thank God for them and people all over who are dedicating themselves to helping save animals! I do TNR and it is extremely rewarding, I am limited with funds but I know every bit that I do helps that much more!Thank you Hope For Paws from the bottom of my heart for everything you do!!! Sincerely, Vicky McDonald (Boca Raton, FL)
i've always thought that fiona might be the pet of a homeless person, perhaps elderly or, sadly, deceased.
eldad and audrey hagar are heroes.
i believe pet owners should be required to chip their animals. Now I know it isn't going to happen for ferrel cats... It might be rare for puppies but anytime an animal is taken to a vet it should be
Mandated. If a dog or cat is abandoned the chances are better of finding these people... Well I know it sounds easy... Well just being hopeful.
The story of Fiona has really touched me. May God bless the people who changed this amazing dog's life and may God bless this precious dog with many years of a healthy, happy life.

I own this kit only for a month so I can't comment on the "success" part but I like the kit itself. So far my tomatoes like it also though it took them a few days to adjust to changes. The kit is a brilliant idea and 4 stars are only because I don't own it for long time to judge its durability. I will update my review at the end of the year.

Easy to,put together, excellent directions, definetly buy the rollers, easy to move around the patio. Watering from top as instructed, fill the base starting June 1. I have two tomatoe plants in one, growing great, both have blossoms, looking forward to beautiful tasty organic tomatoes.
The container is well built, sturdy, love it. Have recommended it to others who only have patios to plant tomatoes. Excellent for apartment dwellers.

Best Uses
- Patio growing
I use 3 of these planters on trolleys and my daughter wanted the results I get, so this was her birthday gift this spring. I included a spray bottle of Rot Stop because that does seem to be the only problem I've had using this system. As long as I can stop the rot when it rears its ugly head, we get a large crop of tasty tomatoes. The planter on its trolley is great for this senior citizen so I can move it and place it in an ideal location and don't have to be on my knees in the dirt.
- Was this a gift?:
- Yes
I have never had so many tomatoes thanks to this tomato success kit and planter! It is truly the best! I bought another planter this year and is well worth the money spent.
Best Uses
- Best Tomatoes Ever
- Love The Water Holder
- Only Way To Grow Tomatoes
- Well Put Together
I use the product in my backyard where I can see it all the time. A ton of tomatoes on the vines makes me smile.
It is convenient the way it holds water. I have no complaints about it. It is the best.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Attractive
- Easy
- Works Great
- Needs Water Almost Daily
Best Uses
- If Yard Is Shady
After years of trying to grow tomatoes in a semi-shady backyard, I saw this product a year ago, and decided to try it on my full-sun deck at work. It works beautifully! I'm on my second year of a bumper crop, and nothing beats the taste of a home-grown tomato.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Contains The Plants
- Too Much Water Used
Best Uses
I bought three boxes and have them on the deck. This frees up space for vegetables in my raised beds. However, I am disappointed with the product. The trough needs filling every two days and it uses a LOT of water. If I leave it longer the soil dries out. Yes, I followed instructions to the letter. It is easier to water from above. The crop is plentiful but no better than if I had grown the tomatoes in the garden.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
Best Uses
I had been having trouble with tomato disease in my garden beds. This solved the problem completely! Plants are happy and vigorous. I am very pleased with my purchase. As other reviewers have mentioned, it is surprising that the reservoir needs to be filled daily. I had hoped that would not be the case, but I am still very happy and they thrive whereas tomatoes in traditional pots have died.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Attractive
- Easy
- Well Made
- Dogs Want To Eat Soil
Best Uses
- First time grower
I have learned that when I'm taking on something new, I should go slow and make it as easy as possible. This pot fit the bill, since I am growing tomatoes for the first time. I bought two of them, followed the instructions and had them setup in no time. Two dwarf tomatoes in one pot, one in the other. So far, so good. The only issues I have personally is that my two Labradors have been very interested in the soil and tried to eat it already. I put them up on a table and made a barrier around them. They seem a little less interested now that the pots are a month old. I wish the cages were taller since my tomatoes are already at the top, but I guess I could buy the extenders for more money.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
Best Uses
- Tomatoes
- Tomatos
Using for tomatoes so I can hopefully help them get more sunlight by being able to move them around. I also hope the cage system will keep them from falling over and becoming a mess later in the season. Keeping my fingers crossed. It didn't come with directions and Gardners Supply was slow responding when I requested directions so I put it together on my own. Once I got directions I did have to take it all apart, take out plants and dirt, because I had not cut drain holes. So if you don't get directions don't assemble. Hopeful this will work. I will post at end of tomato season with update

Was this review helpful?
Yes No
So...so refreshing and so citrus!
Just bought this candle yesterday and now my home is filled with ctrus freshing smell. I was struggling whether I shd get the Lotus Sandal or this one. Well - summer time - got to have some citrus smell.
I am glad I got this - brighten up my cloudy days in Pacific NW.
Refreshing Fragrance
This candle provides a refreshing fragrance in the kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom--actually, all over my house. The citrus and grapefruit seem to be energizing as well as soothing, if that's possible. It masks cooking odors and gives a lovely fragrance in my kitchen.
Mouth Watering Scent
This candle seriously quenches my sweet tooth. It smells like candied citrus. I was really happy with how well the scent filled several rooms of my house. As with all Thymes candles, I love burning this while I'm getting some work done. It helps me stay relaxed and makes the mundane tasks feel special. I will definitely be purchasing this scent again.
Perfect Candle
The Agave Nectar candle is one of my all-time favorites. It's long-burning, and the fragrance is the perfect balance of strength and scent. It's not a heavy, cloying scent, but rather creates a light, fresh fragrance that always lifts my spirits. Love it!

The advantage and disadvantages of using VoIP
by Lee Koo (ADMIN) - 10/11/07 12:49 PM
Hi, I need some opinions for the members who currently use VOIP (voice over Internet protocol) or who had previous used this service and discontinued it. My cable and broadband provider Comcast has been pushing this service and I'm really curious as to why. The deal sounds amazing, it's cheap and has many features that I would take advantage of like unlimited calling anywhere, and offers inexpensive additions for international calls. Currently I pay a hefty amount for my landline service and VOIP seems to be the solution. However, I don't really know anything about the service except that it is cheap and it uses my cable lines to make calls rather than using the telephone line. Also if it's such a great deal, how come none of my friends and family use it? I'm currently only getting one side of the story of how great it is from the VOIP companies (checked out Vonage and others also). What's the real deal here? Is there a catch to all this hype? Will I regret switching? I would love to hear from the people who use VOIP and tell me exactly how it works and what are the advantages and disadvantages of the service, so that I can make the right choice for me. Thank you.

Switching from cable to VoIP
I've used both Vonage and our cable company (Time Warner).
There is nothing wrong with VoIP and it might save you a lot of money. I am using it, I've had it for years, and I like it. But read my comments below. I had Vonage for a year-and-a-half, switched to the cable company only because they offered me a pacakge deal that they are now about to reneg on, and I might go back to Vonage.
When you get VoIP, you will get a "VoIP Box" that provides your VoIP phone service. If your provider is the cable company, they may give you a separate box, or they may give you a new cable modem that has the VoIP box in it. If you go with Vonage or another VoIP provider, it will definitely be an external box (sometimes combined with a router, but I really recommend keeping it separate, see below).
The VoIP box has a "phone jack" (technically known as an RJ-11 jack) on it, and that becomes your new source of phone service. You can plug a phone or phones into that jack (the same phones you use now), and they work just like they did before. But with a bit of rewiring (one of my items below), you can also drive your entire house's phone wiring from this jack, and then your entire house has VoIP phone service that works just like your wired "phone company" service did. You can also keep your existing phone number. But while it all works just like your phone service does now, there are a lot of things to consider, and many of them are not at all obvious to people who don't really understand this stuff.
Here are a list of things to consider before making this decision:
First, your phone service will be only as reliable as your internet service. Now that can vary a lot, but if your internet service is not reliable, you will have a problem with any VoIP, regardless of the VoIP provider (and, conversely, if it is reliable, you shouldn't have a problem). One question to think about: When your internet service does go out, how will you call the cable company to tell them it's out? (the usual answer is either "go next door" or "use a cell phone" .... but what is YOUR answer?)
Second, 911 service MAY not work the same with VoIP as it does now with wired conventional phone service, the 911 operators MAY not know where you are, who you are, or where you are calling from UNLESS you take some extra steps to "register" your phone number and address together (which should always be possible). The cable company MAY do this for you if they are your VoIP provider. But be sure you know what the story is, and if an extra 911 registration step is required .... definitely be sure that you take those steps. Such extra steps were REQUIRED for Vonage (whose VoIP box was portable), they were not required for the cable company (whose VoIP box is part of the cable modem and is NOT portable). VoIP box portability in and of itself may be higly desireable, sometimes it is even the entire reason for getting VoIP (which rules OUT the cable company as a VoIP provider for those applications), but it definitely merits some extra attention with respect to 911 service.
[Postscript to this item: It is ok to dial 911 to TEST this issue ... just tell them immediately after they answer "there is no emergency, this is a test call ...." and then verify that they know who you are and where you are calling from (or, possibly, that they don't). Test calls should be made at odd after-hours (2am in the morning is good), because there have been situations in which VoIP 911 service worked properly during "business hours" but did not work properly during non-business hours.]
Third, do you need unlimited calling? My cable company rate is $39; Vonage is $25, both with unlimited service. BUT, Vonage has (or at least had) a $15 per month rate with limited 500 minutes per month of service (and a few cents a minute surcharge for any time over 500 minutes). Note that this is not "long distance", this is ANY outbound calls (even local). Still, the Vonage $15/500 rate was by far the least expensive rate for me, we never use over or even close to 500 minutes per month (but families with teenage girls will probably find that a different set of rules applies to them).
Fourth: Vonage is facing a patent lawsuit injunction that could shut them down, totally, lock stock and barrel. I'm giving serious thought to going back to Vonage, but won't do it until/unless this is resolved (they just settled a patent case with Sprint, but their case with Verizon is the really big issue).
Fifth: If you use VoIP from a provider other than your cable company, the impact on your cable Internet speed while talking on the phone may be significant. If you use VoIP from your cable company, you MAY get "extra" bandwidth as part of the package, so that your Internet bandwidth is less impacted by use of the phone. This may be an issue if anyone in your household is a "gamer". It is unlikely to be a serious issue otherwise.
Sixth: If you use VoIP and want to have all of your phones in your entire house just like you used to with no changes, someone is going to have to disconnect you home's phone wiring from the [wired] phone company and connect it to the VoIP provider's VoIP box (either a separate box or part of a new cable modem that the cable company will give you if you use their VoIP service). If you go with Vonage or a non-cable company VoIP provider, you are on your own in getting that done. If you go with your cable company, one of three different situations may exist: A.) The cable company will send out a technician to do it at no cost to you ...or... B.) The cable company will send out a technician and bill you ...or... C.) You are on your own. This is a one-time thing, in any case, it's not difficult, but the average layman can't do it themselves. So maybe you talk to some kind of "Geek squad" or "Fire Dog" or "Nerd Herd" type outfit about doing it for you if you can't do it yourself (for a fee). If you are "semi-game", Vonage may have some instructions to help you take a stab at doing it yourself. HOWEVER, this is not a major issue if all of your phones are "cordless" phones that run from a single base station that will be plugged directly into the VoIP box. But, in that case, seen the next item.
Seventh: In the event of a power failure, you lose your phone service ..... UNLESS you install a UPS on ALL of your networking equipment. This means the cable modem for sure, at a minimum. It may also involve other equipement as well, whatever is required to keep your Internet infrastructure running. Things that might need to be kept powered would include the cable modem, a router, the VoIP box and any "distribution amplifiers" that the cable company may have installed (these could be in your basement or other odd places and you might not even know about them), not to mention your telephones themselves if they require AC power (cordless phones usually need power for the "base station"). Note: you do NOT need to keep your computer runnning, although if you are going to buy a UPS anyway, most people would configure it to do so. This might mean multiple UPS' (I now have EIGHT UPS' in my house .... UPS' are not just for computers any more). Also, if you have to buy one or more UPS' for this purpose, get BIG ones, and note the next few sentences. The issue here is not UPS capacity .... none of this stuff needs more than a very small UPS in terms of actual VA or watts capacity. The issue is the size of the batteries and the duration of service while on batteries. You want UPS' with BIG BATTERIES, or multiple batteries, e.g. lots of run time. However, you only get that in large capacity UPS'.
Eighth: You can keep your phone number, but in both of my experiences in doing this, getting the number switched took a LONG time (4 months and 6 months, respectively (by the way, it was supposed to take 10 days .....)). In both cases I kept the old service until the switch was complete, and there was no charge from the "new" carrier until the number finally moved.
Ninth: If you go with a VoIP provider other than the cable company, OR if the cable company gives you an external VoIP box rather than an integrated combination cable modem and VoIP box, you will need a router (and possibly a wireless router if you need WiFI wireless internet). If you find yourself in this situation, do NOT get a router with a built-in VoIP box, keep the VoIP box and the router separate. It means one more box, but it will cut down on a lot of hassle if you change your phone service or VoIP provider in the future.
Tenth: If you make international calls, be sure to check the International rates. I don't make such calls, but Vonage was dirt cheap for International calls (free to many countries and a penny or two a minute to others) while the cable company charges between 40 cents and $1.00 per minute depending on country. Obviously, that is a huge difference .... for people who make international calls.
There, I think I've covered everything. Hope that this helps.

More Than a Few Good Men: American Manhood and Violence Against Women
Jackson Katz is internationally known for his innovative work in helping promote gender violence education in schools, sports, and the military. While many programs narrowly define sexual assault as a women's issue, Mr. Katz has shifted the discourse by talking about sexual assault as an issue that men have a stake in.
In 1993, Dr. Katz helped found the Mentors in Violence Prevention (MVP) program at Northeastern University. This was the first time high school, college, and professional athletes were all enlisted in a program of this scale to combat men's violence against women. Today, the MVP program has been implemented across collegiate and professional athletics. Teams in the NFL, NBA, and MLB use Mr. Katz's approach. In 1997 Dr. Katz created and directed the first worldwide gender violence prevention program in the the U.S. Marine Corps, and from 2000-2003 served as a member of the U.S. Secretary of Defense's Task Force on Domestic Violence in the Military. Dr. Katz is also the author of two books: The Macho Paradox: Why Some Men Hurt Women and How All Men Can Help (2006), and Leading Men: Presidential Campaigns and the Politics of Manhood (2012).
This talk is sponsored by ASCMC, the department of athletics, and the Athenaeum as part of an ongoing series on social responsibility.
China Beyond the Sound Bites
Jeff Wasserstrom is a Chancellor's Professor of History at U.C. Irvine and a leading expert on modern China. In his talk at the Athenaeum, he will explain what an informed global citizen ought to know about China: the most populous and arguably fastest changing country in the world. Wasserstrom is a frequent contributor to newspapers, magazines and blogs, and co-editor of Chinese Characters: Profiles of Fast-Changing Lives in a Fast-Changing Land (2012). Wasserstrom's interest in China is varied, and he says it ranges from "the gendered symbolism of revolutions to patterns of student protest, and from the way that globalization affects urban life and popular culture to American images of Asia." His research in these areas helps shed light on rapidly evolving Chinese society.
Wasserstrom is the author Student Protests in Twentieth-Century China: The View from Shanghai (1991), Global Shanghai, 1850-2010 (2009), and his talk at the Athenaeum will focus on his most recent publication, China in the 21st Century: What Everyone Needs to Know (2010). This book explores how China's past shapes its present, and corrects many common misconceptions about Chinese culture and politics. Wasserstrom's work is crucial to helping us understand this emerging global power.
No More Babies: What to Expect When No One's Expecting
LUNCHEON 11:30 a.m.; PROGRAM 12:00 p.m.
"A powerful argument that the only thing worse than having children is not having them."
—P.J. O'Rourke
Jonathan V. Last is a senior writer at The Weekly Standard, a Washington-based political magazine and author of What to Expect When No One's Expecting: America's Coming Demographic Disaster (2013) (Encounter Books). His writings have been featured in The Wall Street Journal, Los Angeles Times, The Washington Post, The Philadelphia Inquirer, The New York Post, The Claremont Review of Books, First Things, and elsewhere.
He is a regular commentator on both television and radio and blogs at JonathanLast.com.
For years, we have been warned about the looming danger of overpopulation: people jostling for space on a planet that's busting at the seams and running out of oil and food and land and everything else. It's all bunk. The "population bomb" never exploded. What to Expect When No One's Expecting explains why the population implosion happened and how it is remaking culture, the economy, and politics both at home and around the world.
A Discussion of Jewish Renewal in Poland
LUNCHEON 11:30 a.m.; PROGRAM 12:00 p.m. PARENTS DINING ROOM
For more than 500 years Poland was home to one of the largest and most vibrant Jewish communities. Then, the Holocaust annihilated almost the entire community. After World War II, the remnant of the community languished under Communist rule. Following the fall of Communism in Eastern Europe, the Jewish community in Poland began a slow yet significant revival. In recent years, several new synagogues have been created and highly popular festival of Jewish music and culture is held each year in Krakow. This April the new Museum of Polish Jews opened in Warsaw. On Tuesday, October 2, the Athenaeum will present two panels to examine various cultural and religious aspects of the renewal of Jewish life.
At lunch time Barbara Kirshenblatt-Gimblett, who will be present via Skype from her home in Poland, will talk about the recently opened Museum of Polish Jews, where she serves as a senior director. This lunch will be held at 11:30 a.m. in Parents Dining Room.
Barbara Kirshenblatt-Gimblett is Distinguished Professor at New York University, and Program Director of the Core Exhibition at the Museum of the History of Polish Jews. Her books include Destination Culture: Tourism, Museums, and Heritage (1998); Image before My Eyes: A Photographic History of Jewish Life in Poland, 1864–1939 (1994) (with Lucjan Dobroszycki); and The Art of Being Jewish in Modern Times (2008)(edited with Jonathan Karp). Her edited volume Writing a Modern Jewish History: Essays in Honor of Salo W. Baron (2006) won a National Jewish Book Award. In 2008, she was honored with the award for lifetime achievement by the Foundation for Jewish Culture and the Mlotek Prize for Yiddish and Yiddish Culture. She currently serves on Advisory Boards for the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research, Vienna Jewish Museum, and new Jewish Museum and Tolerance Center in Moscow.
A Panel Discussion on Jewish Renewal in Poland
In the evening, the panel of community leaders who have made substantial contributions to the renewal of Jewish life will speak about their recent work and experiences in Poland.
Joanna Auron-Gorska is a lecturer in Jewish Studies and Judaism for the Beit Warszawa Synagogue course Step by Step: Introduction to Judaism, in Bialystok and Warsaw. She was awarded a Ph.D.in Cultural Studies; A. Mickiewicz University, Poznan, Institute of Cultural Studies; and an M.A.in the Study of Jewish-Christian Relations; Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge, Great Britain.
Piotr Stasiak is the chairman of Beit Polska, the umbrella organization for progressive Judaism throughout Poland. To date Beit Polska has developed eight communities throughout Poland, including Beit Warszawa, the first community, in 1995. It has completed the first modern gender free translation of the prayer book in to Polish with editor Rabbi Gil Nativ, and has trained eight prayer leaders and five teachers of Progressive Judaism to serve the Polish Jewish community.
Rabbi Haim Dov Beliak began working with Beit Polska, the umbrella organization of Progressive Judaism in Poland, in 2011. He was born in a displaced persons (DP) Camp in Munich, Germany and grew up in Mason City, Iowa and Phoenix, Arizona, and graduated from Occidental College in 1969. Before attending rabbinical school, he worked as television cameraman and taught television production to teachers at Occidental College. Beliak graduated and received his ordination from Hebrew Union College, and has completed additional studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, and Merkaz HaRav. Rabbi Beliak served as chaplain and adjunct professor of Modern Jewish History at the Claremont Colleges from 1974 to 1991.
Human Rights and the Role of Faith in World Peace
As an Iranian lawyer and human rights activist, Nobel Peace Prize laureate Shirin Ebadi has worked tirelessly for democracy and human rights, especially the rights of women and children, in her native country and beyond. In 2003, she became the first Muslim woman and first Iranian to receive the Nobel Peace Prize for her pioneering efforts as an activist. The Nobel committee praised Ebadi's character, noting that she "has stood up as a sound professional, a courageous person, and has never heeded the threats to her own safety."
While always interested in the law, Shirin Ebadi did not choose a life of activism. Instead, a life of activism found her. Ebadi was born in the city of Hamadan in 1947 to a family of academics. She earned a law degree from the University Tehran. In 1978, Ebadi, then a 31-year-old judge on the Tehran city court, helped storm the justice ministry during the Iranian Revolution to topple the shah and install Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomenei. In 1979, following the Iranian Revolution, Ebadi found her circumstances changed and she was forced to resign by the new regime. Though she was unable to return to her law practice until 1993, she began writing articles and books campaigning for a stronger legal status for women and children, becoming a champion of human rights under the strict Islamic regime. In her career as a lawyer, she has taken on numerous child abuse, minority rights, and anti-censorship cases. She also established two non-governmental organizations: the Society for Protecting the Rights of the Child (SPRC) and the Defenders of Human Rights Center (DHRC).
Ebadi has received numerous accolades and awards other than her Nobel Peace Prize. In 2004, Forbes magazine listed her as one of the "100 most powerful women in the world." She has also been feature in TIME magazine's as one of the world's "100 most Influential People."
As a writer, Ebadi has published several books and many articles, including but not limited to Democracy, Human Rights, and Islam in Modern Iran: Psychological, Social, and Cultural Perspectives (2003), as well as her memoir, Iran Awakening: A Memoir of Revolution and Hope (2006). Most recently, she wrote, The Golden Cage: Three Brothers, Three Choices, One Destiny (2011). In a review for the United Kingdom's The Independent, Lucy Popescu writes that this book is, "a testament to Ebadi's resilience and the courage of those, like her, who continue to peacefully fight against injustice."
Shirin Ebadi's Athenaeum address is part of CMC's Inauguration Series celebrating the presidency of Dr. Hiram Chodosh.
Revisiting Simone de Beauvoir in the 21st Century
In 1953, Beauvoir's monumental classic, The Second Sex, appeared in English missing approximately 15% of its text. Simone de Beauvoir was one of the most influential thinkers of her generation. A leader of the existentialist movement, she worked with Sartre on Les Temps Modernes. In The Second Sex, Beauvoir offers a complex meditation on the place of women in society through extensive interviews with women of every age and class. And yet, the English edition of this text was, for many years, only translated by a retired zoologist with college-level French. Sixty years later, the complete work is available in English due to the efforts of Sheila Malovany-Chevallier and Constance Borde.
Constance Borde and Sheila Malovany-Chevallier have lived in Paris for over forty years and were faculty members at the Institut d'Etudes Politiques. After attending Rutgers University together in the 1960s, Borde and Malovany-Chevallier became close friends and both received degrees in linguistics in Paris. They have co-authored numerous books in English and French on subjects ranging from grammar to politics to American cooking. Some of their most notable collaborations include, My English is French: Corrigez facilement vos erreurs les plus courantes en anglais (1983) and Focus on american democracy: Le systeme politique en version originale (1996). They also worked on a project for teaching English to children called Magic English, which still functions today.
Like their previous work, this translation of The Second Sex has been met with wide acclaim from critics and scholars alike. In an interview with Laurel Zuckerman, Borde and Malovany-Chevallier framed the significance of their work to modern women and partially, their motivation behind the translation, "what Beauvoir has to say about women is timeless. Her perspective is completely intellectual — not to say philosophical. It is not anecdotal; it lays the premise for a kind of thinking about freedom and equality that can be applied to any master-slave situation. Young or old, we can all benefit from the intellectual framework of her thinking."
Is There An Obama-Clinton Doctrine?
Professor Harold Koh is one of the country's leading experts in public and private international law, national security law, and human rights. In true CMC fashion, Professor Koh applies his legal expertise both in and out of the classroom. On the Academic side, Koh served as the Dean of Yale Law School from 2004 to 2009, has authored or co-authored eight books, and published over 180 articles. On top of these remarkable achievements in academia, Professor Koh has also had a distinguished career in government and international relations. From 1998 to 2001, Koh served as the U.S Assistant Secretary of State for Democracy, Human Rights and Labor, and from 2009 to 2013 he left Yale to serve as Legal Adviser to the State Department. Professor Koh testifies regularly before Congress, and litigated numerous cases involving international law issues in both U.S. and international tribunals.
For his groundbreaking work, Professor Koh has received thirteen honorary degrees and more than thirty awards for his human rights work, including awards from Columbia Law School and the American Bar Association for his lifetime achievements in international law. He is a Fellow of the American Philosophical Society and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, an Honorary Fellow of Magdalen College, Oxford, and a member of the Council of the American Law Institute.

Lecture Honoring Harold W. Rood (1922-2011)
State Sponsors of Terrorism
LUNCHEON 11:30 a.m.; PROGRAM 12:00 p.m.
State practices are not limited to the peaceable. Even democratic India trained hundreds of Tamil militants, only to later feel compelled to intervene against them during fighting in Sri Lanka. Pakistan, for its part, backs Sunni militants, including Lashkar-e-Tayyiba, responsible for recurring depredations in India. This lecture reviews multiple cases: the Soviet bloc; Libyan and Yugoslav support to Palestinians; several "narcoterrorism" governments, etc. After analysis of the four states on the U.S. official list of sponsors--Cuba, Syria, Iran, and northern Sudan--the lecture closes with words on U.S. policy and strategy for dealing with such states.
Christopher Harmon serves as the Major General Matthew C. Horner Chair of Military Theory at Marine Corps University. He previously held positions as Curricula Director in the Program on Terrorism and Security Studies at George C. Marshall European Center for Security Studies and The Kim. T. Adamson Chair of Insurgency & Terrorism at the Marine Corps University's University Command and Staff College. Dr. Harmon is the editor or co-author of a number of books in the area of terrorism and counterterrorism including Toward A Grand Strategy Against Terrorism, Terrorism Today (2010), and Statecraft and Power: Essays in Honor of Harold W. Rood (1994). In addition, he has testified before Congress and spoken before numerous groups both nationally and internationally. Dr. Harmon's latest work, A Citizen's Guide to Terrorism and Counterterrorism, will be published by Routledge in December.
Dr. Harmon holds a Ph.D. in International Relations and Government from Claremont Graduate School and a B.A. in History from Seattle University. Dr. Harmon has been honored by the Department of State as the recipient of the "Distinguished Public Service Award."
Professor Harold W. (Bill) Rood was a great teacher, mentor, and friend to many generations of students of history and international relations, especially those at Claremont McKenna College. Born in 1922, he served as a heavy machine gunner and a radio operator in Patton's Third Army, in the European Theater of Operations, where he rose to the rank of private first class. He continued his military service in the Army Reserve during the Korean War as an order of battle specialist and a strategic intelligence analyst. He also served on the staff and faculty of the Sixth Army Intelligence School.
Dr. Rood earned a B.A. and Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of California, Berkeley. He was appointed to the Government Department faculty of Claremont Men's College in 1962, and came to hold the W.M. Keck Foundation Chair of International Strategic Studies. Dr. Rood won multiple Outstanding Teacher Awards at CMC and established himself as a favorite among CMC undergrads, while attracting a loyal following from then-Claremont Graduate School (now University). He is survived by his wife, Juanita, and daughters Hilary and Elizabeth.
The Psychedelic Renaissance: Promise and Pitfalls
Lysergic acid diethylamide, commonly abbreviated as LSD or acid, is a drug well known for its psychological, mind altering effects and its key role in the 1960s counter culture. Conventional wisdom argues that the purpose of psychedelics is limited to a fairly interesting but hardly intellectual or result-oriented journey. In a reflection of this mindset, the state of California outlawed LSD in the fall of 1966, which precipitated a similar reaction by the federal government and numerous other states. And yet, this narrative runs counter to key testimonies of innovators deriving benefits from LSD. In a widely reported line from his biography, Steve Jobs told his interviewer that, "Taking LSD was a profound experience, one of the most important things in my life." Francis Crick admitted that he was on acid when he comprehended the double helix. The Beatles so admired LSD that they wrote a song in its honor. To understand this contradiction and the possible benefits of LSD, Dr. James Fadiman has dedicated his life to psychedelic research.
In his latest book, The Psychedelic Explorer's Guide: Safe, Therapeutic and Sacred Journeys (2011), Dr. James Fadiman contends that LSD can be used in safe and effective manner to serve at least three purposes: creative problem solving, therapy, and spirituality. Fadiman describes the best practices for safe, sacred "entheogenic voyages" using his more than 40 years of experience and the benefits of everything from having a guide during session to the importance of setting to outlining pre-session intention.
Fadiman is known as, "America's wisest and most respected authority on psychedelics and their use." Fadiman received his B.A. from Harvard University in Social Relations, his M.A., and his Ph.D from Stanford in Psychology. In 1966, he was a researcher for the International Foundation for Advanced Study, a privately funded facility dedicated to psychedelic drug research, until that organization was ordered to stop by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. James Fadiman is a former director of IONS, teaches at Sofia University, formerly the Institute for Transpersonal Psychology, in Palo Alto, California, which he cofounded in 1975.
When a Filmmaker's Passion Catches Fire: An Evening with Documentary Producer Dorothy Fadiman
Dorothy Fadiman produces Emmy award winning and Oscar nominated social change media. Her subjects focus on social justice and human rights, ranging from progressive education to holistic healing; from the universal connection within faiths throughout the world, to election integrity in the United States.
Some of her most notable documentaries cover the light of Spirit in every faith (Radiance: The Experience of Light) (1978), progressive education that honors children's natural knowing (Why Do these Kids Love School?)(1990), and the extraordinary healing journey of a woman with a spinal cord injury (Moment by Moment: The Healing Journey of Molly Hale)(2005). Fadiman has produced several series, including a trilogy on abortion rights (From the Back-Alleys to the Supreme Court)(1992) — and a five-part series on AIDS in Africa (Seeds of Hope)(2006). Her most recent film is STEALING AMERICA: Vote by Vote (2008), examines the integrity of a decade of U.S. elections. Fadiman's book, PRODUCING with PASSION: Making Films that Change the World (2008), follows her career and shows how independent filmmakers can bring powerful stories to light through documentaries.

By Suzanne Kubota
Senior Internet Editor
The STAR METRICS will create a reliable and consistent way to account for the number of scientists and support staff that are on research institution payrolls supported by federal funds.
At least, that's the goal.
Science and Technology for America's Reinvestment: Measuring the Effect of Research on Innovation, Competitiveness and Science, or STAR METRICS, and it will be lead by the National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation, and the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy.
Julia Lane, program director with the National Science Foundation told Federal News Radio the "data infrastructure hasn't really existed in the past."
This came out of a push by the administration for evidence-based policy. There's massive amounts of investment in science. We believe that that has an impact on competitiveness, on innovation and job creation, and it's attempting to document the degree of that impact.
With the documentation can come models, data and tools, "in other words a science of science policy, that will help inform and make decisions."
Lane said the effort can be traced back to comments made by Bush White House science adviser John Marburger III. "He said the health policy debate is pretty well informed by data and by a theoretical infrastructure. Education, financial policy, labor policy: all of those are pretty well informed, but with science policy we don't really have a good scientific basis for making these massive investments."
And yet, said Lane, many people believe that investments in science are the key to American competitiveness. Without an understanding of how investments make it through the system, said Lane, "it's very difficult to make wise investments."
One advantage of being last to the model table is having data available now on previous projects. That's what's being done now at NIH, said Lane. "They take the winning projects and try and work back and figure out what went right. So there are two ways of doing it: one is prospective, the other is retrospective."
Julia Lane, is the program director for Science of Science & Innovation Policy (SciSIP) at the National Science Foundation.

Jesus Didn't Just "Die for Our Salvation": Why He Rose from the Dead
Posted by Dr. Michael Barber on 04.26.11 |1 Cor 15:14, 1 Corinthians 15, Durrwell, Easter, Resurrection, Rom 4:25, Thomas Aquinas
Christ is risen, Alleluia!
But why did he rise from the dead?
Here I want to ask the question and touch on an aspect of the resurrection that is often overlooked, namely, how it relates to our salvation.
Most people know that Jesus died for their sins. But, as we shall see, according to the New Testament Jesus also rose for our salvation. This aspect of the biblical message is often neglected. The… [Continue Reading]

This is one of my favorite magazines. It doesn't put headlines on the cover that are untrue simply to get readers to buy it.
I look forward to my new mag coming every week, I love Us magazine for all the celebrity gossip!!
I have always been a loyal US Weekly subscriber. Although they do cover the same stories as all the other gossip magazines, I think they ad more writing and less of the same old pictures. I refuse to pay $4 a magazine though, so I highly recommend buying it on here!
I love getting US Weekly. It is like a present in my mailbox once a week!
Received WAY faster than expected!! I have never received a mag subscription that fast! It said 6-8 weeks and I got my first issue in three!
Always up-to-date with the latest in celebrity gossip
I know they have to pay for their magazine, but come on they do have a lot of ads. Also, I do not like the fact that they miss some really good stories, People Mag covers. I sometimes have to buy People over the counter, because wait I missed something. Yes I do have a life. Overall, this is a very good magazine. I will buy it again.
Really enjoy reading and look forward to it every week. Would recommend to a friend. Like to see some stores on Soap Stars too.
I love US Weekly. It is like a present in my mailbox every week. It is great to sit back and relax at the end of a busy week with a good gossip mag!
I love this magazine. Keeps me up to date with everything. Also, has lots of beauty & fashion information as well.

Us Weekly Magazine Subscription Video Review
Hi. I'm TV and Radio host Patricia Lopez here at Magazines.com to tell you why I love my US Weekly Magazine subscription. Working in entertainment, it's my job to always be up-to-date on what's going in Hollywood.
Now while there are a lot of great entertainment magazines out there, I really love the insider information I get when my US Weekly arrives. Not only does it cover the award shows and red carpets, it goes a step further and takes you behind the scenes, backstage, into the dressing rooms and into the after parties. While US magazine covers the juicy Hollywood tidbits like who's dating who, who's doing big things, and who's up to no good, I love that they dig a little deeper to give us more than just the Hollywood news by also showing us ways to incorporate a little Hollywood glitz and glam into our own lives.
With US Magazine, it's not just about covering celebrity style and showing what the stars are wearing. It's taking it a step further and showing me how I can get that same look for less without the movie star paychecks coming in! From celebrity fashion to health, beauty, diet & fitness advice from the stars, I love that US Weekly really gives everyone a way to put a little Hollywood glitz into their own lives.
If you love breaking celebrity news, movies, music, television, fashion and entertainment then I definitely suggest checking out the current US Weekly subscription deals going on here at Magazines.com.
I'm Patricia Lopez and thanks for stopping by!

As developers do you ever seek out contract work in addition to your full-time job? I am considering pursuing some additional part-time opportunities and I'm curious how common it is among full-time software engineers.
closed as primarily opinion-based by Thomas Owens♦ Feb 14 at 12:10
Many good questions generate some degree of opinion based on expert experience, but answers to this question will tend to be almost entirely based on opinions, rather than facts, references, or specific expertise. If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
Before I started my custom software company 20 years ago, I did some programming on the side while in college. The important thing to keep in mind is you may have limited availability to support the application, and you need to be up front with the client on this. As long as they know this, and the rate agreed reflects this, go for it.
Just be transparent about it.
A few principles that guide my decision-making about things like this:
I've tried part-time freelance programming but I felt stressed and tired and wished I had my free time back. On the other hand, working on my own personal projects has been invigorating and has been a chance to learn new things.
I would take on part-time freelance jobs -- preferably, those with flexible timelines or scope -- if they offered a chance to learn something new. The money alone is not a significant source of motivation.
One thing I've thought about is that being a full-time freelancer would be easier than trying to moonlight. It's just I would rather not worry about where my next paycheck will come from. The pillar of stability provided by a primary job gives me a base from which I can explore new technologies, work on my side projects, and do other things that don't immediately translate into money.
I know people who have done it and it has always negatively affected their day job. Either they spend time during the day doing stuff related to their night job, telephone calls, email (or worse actually coding) or they just can't focus and get nothing done.
IMO, If you are going to put yourself through the hassle why don't you do something that can actually lead to some big reward in the future. Work on something that can turn into a product that can result in a big payday someday. Sure the extra money from a contract job will be nice but that may be an illusion. It's almost a guarantee that your primary job is going to suffer because of your night job. This very well may end up hurting you in your pocketbook from a raise perspective, a reputation perspective and a stress perspective. Any of which could end up costing you more than the extra money you make on the side job. If you're going to risk that then you should be going for the home run (ie. your own business) and not just a few extra bucks from some side job. But that's just my humble opinion.
I do, but they tend to be writing and related things, not coding. I also make sure to talk to my bosses before I signed the contract for the book.
I freelance from time to time, and work on personal projects that I release too. I keeps me interested in doing what I do - working for one employer for a long period of time can have detrimental effects on your motivation, skills (don't forget this is a very fast paced, rapidly evolving industry), etc.
If you can freelance or contract then do; you might find it very rewarding (as I and many do), but be prepared for:
Also even with all the will in the world there will be days where you just can't do it. You know those days when you get up to go to work and it hurts? Well double it if you have a freelance gig on. You've got to be committed, you need a strong work ethic and be willing to get things done, even when you'd sooner not.
I've been a consultant/contract programmer for the last 30 years or so, and generally have always had more than one contract going on at a time. I do mostly embedded hardware/software design, but also do some website stuff. I have always been careful about avoiding conflicts of interest.
I currently have one full-time contract with a startup company. I also have five other small jobs (usually don't have this many). The CEO at the startup knows I am working on other contracts. That's one reason I insist on being a contractor there too instead of an employee (if they want me to come in on Saturdays, I get paid for it).
Most of the jobs I am getting paid for on an hourly basis. Two of them I am working for equity or barter.
My wife is out of town right now visiting our daughter's family so I'm currently working about 6 1/2 days a week to get caught up a little. I'll cut back when she returns.
You aren't limited to one job (unless by contract). I take every oppertunity I can manage to increase my skill set and networking connections. Even if you don't end up with work at the end of it you meet people that are helpful later on.
I do, but I am a junior trying to get as much of a portfolio as possible, my 4 day a week job is limited to wordpress sites, and simple ones, so I branch out in my spare time.
One day, I won't. Spare time is too precious.
I did that from the very beginning of my career, and I would do it again, despite all the problems I got because of it (legal & health).
In addition of legal aspects
I suggest you to work on one project at a time (or one customer at a time), and no more than 2h a day in addition of your 8h work day. For a maximum total of 50h per week.
Now positive things:
I don't, however, I want to. You need to go over several things when considering contract work which you need to be mindful:

How bad is this for Benson?
http://www.nola.com/politics/index.s...tax_break.htmlA tax break that's a key element of the state's new lease agreement with the New Orleans Hornets was derailed Wednesday when it failed to get the 53 votes needed to clear the Louisiana House. Lawmakers voted 49-46 for the extension of the annual $3.65 million tax break the team now gets. The break would run through 2024, with a possible five-year extension through 2029.
Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams
Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston
I'm just going to reserve my right to panic until someone rational calms me down.
If it does not pass, the lease will not be extended and the sale will not go through. This is posturing, likely. I'll check the voting record.
"Aime la vérité, mais pardonne à l'erreur." - François-Marie Arouet (Voltaire)
Not worried about this. Some greasing of palms, and this will pass. Louisiana politiics at its' best (or worst). Jindal will lay the smack down as well.
looking for team to bandwagon, pls help
Nothing to worry about.
Because the sale hasn't even gone through yet and it's politics, nothing ever gets done on the first try.
WTF does this mean? I'm not very worried, but this could be a concern for those who don't really know what all this means.
Formally known as WhoDatMan504
This is almost certainly posturing by the NLA politicians
as it is... I see Gov. Jindal's power over this legislature... and if he wants something... he'll almost certainly get it... and we all know he's in.
Just give it time... there's 5 1/2 weeks left in this legislative session
I believe I remember getting murdered for having the audacity to question North Louisiana Politicians resolve on this.
Yes my rep did not vote for it and to be honest I am not that thrilled about it. No matter where at in the state we live in, we all are Louisiana residents and giving money to the Hornets will help in the longterm. It helps bring in more people which means more taxes.
Last edited by SundayMoney; 04-26-2012 at 09:56 AM.
My issue is with the 8 that were absent for the vote. Why the hell would they be absent? They are paid tax payer dollars so they should be there for voting. If they had been there, the vote probably would have passed.

The application portal will be open for 2016-2017 fellowships in September, 2015. Look for that and more information for applicants on GrinnellShare.
As part of its historic commitment to social justice and responsibility, and in an attempt to match the talents and idealism of our students with the needs of our local and global communities, Grinnell College has created a number of post-graduate fellowship opportunities.
The programs provide students with the opportunity to undertake a one-year service fellowship supported by the College in the year immediately following their graduation. The programs are open for applications from as many students as possible, with no prerequisites or requirements except participation the year immediately following graduation. All reasonable expenses during the year of service, including transportation, stipend, housing, and insurance, are covered under these fellowships.
The fellowships are carried out in conjunction with partner institutions. Grinnell provides the funding for the programs; the fellows provide the labor; and the partner institution provides the service opportunity. Currently, Grinnell supports the following post-graduate fellowship opportunities:
- education-related service in China and Thailand;
- conservation-related service in Namibia;
- local anti-poverty service in Grinnell; and
- housing reconstruction service in New Orleans.
Applying to Grinnell Corps
Application information and timeline.
Grinnell welcomes applicants with disabilities. Each fellowship location and position has unique features and qualities, so applicants with disabilities who want to discuss what accommodations may be needed are encouraged to contact Vicki Nolton.
International students are also welcome to apply for fellowships when it is possible to obtain the necessary one-year visa for participation in the program. International students are encouraged to contact Vicki Nolton before submitting an application to discuss possibilities.
