You probably came from my "ABOUT ME" section. Here's what was on that page:
1/1/2002 | 0 comments
About Me - Shaman
(That picture to the left looks like a mugshot. But for some reason, I like it.)
This page will provide greater detail than that on my main BME/IAM page. This is mostly to deter anyone who might be viewing my page from a (non-iam) status, and will probably be completely overlooked by anyone just cruising through IAM.
My name is Tiffany Monique LeClair. I am 28
years old. My birthday is on February 15, and I was born in the year
1979. I am an Aquarius. I am currently living in Southern
California, just north of Los Angeles. I travel for work (as a private
investigator and a Commissioned Notary Public).
I am currently enrolled full-time in college, determined to get my degree in Computer Science. I am hoping that, combined with my Private Investigation experience, will make for a good background in security and internet related software building. We shalll see!
I also enjoy website design. I am experienced in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Wiki formats. I also enjoy writing, both as creating reference material (wiki) and creative writing. I am proficient in PhotoShop, and frequently make customized graphics and banners for the websites I edit. I have mastered custom layouts in BME's IAM, LiveJournal, and MySpace.
I am good at burning bridges and saying the wrong thing. It's not that I'm insensitive, but rather that I am willing to use my vocabulary when angered. Wait. Maybe that does make me insensitive. I think that stems from two things - documenting observations from my private investigation job (which I started doing in 1996) and from writing. If you want to know what's on my mind, I'll probably do a good job explaining it.
I have two wonderful children. Maximus (age 3-1/2) and Leona (age 2). I had a tubal-ligation after Leona's birth, and thus, am voluntarily sterile. I did not believe that I had the resources to raise more than two children.
My defining characteristic is my spirituality. I have had a relationship with the "unseen" aspects of the world for quite some time. My first specific related memory was around age 8. I honestly assumed it was an imaginary friend, which I had heard about on television. But the longer I interacted with this "being," the more I learned about things of which I had no previous knowledge. The first exercise involved feeling colors with my hands, and progressed from there. By the time I was about 12, I realized that this "imaginary friend" was teaching me things. How could something that originated from my mind teach me something I did not already know? I began searching for an answer. I immediately discovered magic, witchcraft, Wicca, angels, and other related topics. I also discovered material on extra-sensory perception. Which was it? Magic or ESP? I soon realized that the source does not matter. I was a loner, a solitary creature. This certainly wasn't anything I was going to be discussing with my limited number high school friends. I decided that, what mattered, was continuing to learn and develop.
Many modern "pagans" were raised with some sort of spirituality; frequently, some flavor of Christianity. I am of Norwegian descent. My family lineage includes quite a bit of traveling. The Norwegians moved to Scotland. Their Scottish children moved to Canada. Their Canadian children moved to Southern California. My grandmother was actually born and raised in Manitoba, Canada. My family's own version of spirituality seems to be passed down verbally. It seems to have some "flavor" from pagan or native-people's spirituality from Norway, Scotland, and North American Natives.
I am a duality. I like technology and a complete lack of technology. I like science (the seen) and magic (the unseen).
I am fascinated by the spiritual side of body modification. I frequently ritualize new modifications. Further down on this page you will read about one of my featured experiences, my ritual septum piercing. I am also very interested in learning and knowing about various jewelry styles and materials. The following is a list of my piercings and the jewelry I have in them.
Current Piercings:
- Bridge Piercing - Straight Barbell, 16g, 9/16" Long, 1/8" balls. 316LVM ASTM F138 Steel with Counter-boared Balls. Industrial Strength.
- Both Nostrils Pierced - Nosebones, 16g, 1/4" Long, 1/8" balls. 316LVM ASTM F138 Steel. LeRoi special order.
- Septum Piercing - Crescent/Pincher, 8g, 3/8" Diameter, Silicone O-rings, 316LVM ASTM F138 Steel. Body Circle Designs.
- Lobe Piercing - First/Bottom Hole - Double-Flared Eyelet, 1/2", 316LVM ASTM F138 Steel. Industrial Strength.
- Lobe Piercing - Second Hole - Double-Flared Eyelet, 4g, 316LVM ASTM F138 Steel. Industrial Strength.
- Lobe Piercing - Third Hole (Left Only) - CBR/Ball and Socket Ring - 8g, 3/8" Diameter, 316LVM ASTM F138 Steel. Body Circle Designs.
- Tragus Piercing (Left Only) - Double-flared Eyelet - 8g, 316LVM ASTM F138 Steel. Industrial Strength.
- Navel Piercing - J-curve, 14g, 1/2" Long, 3/16" Ball and 1/4" Ball. 316LVM ASTM F138 Steel. Body Circle Designs.
- Helix Piercing (Right Only - Industrial Remnant) - Flatback Labret, 14g, 1/4" Long, 1/8" Ball. 316LVM ASTM F138 Steel. Industrial Strength.
I usually perform piercings on myself. However, I have two favorite piercing shops that I frequent: Enigma in San Diego and Anomaly in Pasadena. My most recent modification, my bridge piercing, was done by Matt at Enigma. My most recent tattoo, a near-photograph quality butterfly on my left forearm, was done by Chris at 1st Amendment Tattoo in Simi Valley.
I first created my IAM page in January 2003. I believe I first found BME in 1997. I remember, it my early days exploring BME, I came across the most incredible "risk" I had ever read about. It was titled, "change of ideals." In essence, this risk entry warned those new to body modification to take into consideration that, someday, they may not want the modifications they have. The tattoos and piercings may fit a current lifestyle, but a "change of ideals" may make one have negative feelings towards their modifications. I remember laughing and thinking, "this WAS my change of ideals." My change was to modifications, not away from it. Frequently, I read about how people started modifying their bodies at an early age. Not me.
Interestingly, I did not receive my first non-ear piercing until my 21st birthday in February of 2000. I got my navel pierced for my birthday. Then my matching left and right ear industrial piercings. After that came the first of many attempts to have both nostrils pierced. I had a variety of problems with my nostril piercings including poor placement and a jewelry metal allergy. Ultimately, my left nostril was pierced in 2003 while I was approximately 7 months pregnant with my son. My right nostril was then pierced in 2005 when I was pregnant with my daughter. After learning from previous hardships, I have found proper jewelry and symmetrical locations for my nostril piercings. Then came the navel piercing stretch, the septum piercing, a third hole in my left lobe, and the bridge piercing.
My piercings have been in a fluctuating status up until recently. I had my septum stretched up to a 4g, but found this was too big to be comfortable. I returned to an 8g, and believe this is the perfect gauge for my septum piercing. My nostrils have fluctuated in size between 18g to 16g; I believe 16g is preferable. My navel piercing has fluctuated between 16g and 12g; I believe 14g is most comfortable. I like the aesthetic value of my lobe piercings - 1/2" and 4g seem to look nice together. And the third hole on my left ear looks good in an 8g. I feel like I've found the perfect gauge and perfect jewelry for all but one of my piercings. I have a relatively large CBR in the third hole on my left ear. I believe I will ultimately put an 8g double-flared eyelet in it once it heals a little more.
After creating my IAM page in January 2003, I immediately wanted to know what more I could do to help out the greater cause. That cause being, of course, to spread knowledge and information regarding body modification. I greatly support BME. I review experiences as often as I am able. I am currently ranked in the top 250 reviewers, and hope to make the top 200 very soon. I have also made original contributions to wiki.bmezine.com on a number of occasions. The two largest entries that I have contributed to have been on Mycosis (fungal infections) and Spirituality.
What's next? Piercing-wise, I believe I will be piercing my nipples sometime soon. I am still breastfeeding my daughter, and once she weans, nipple piercings are on my agenda. I would also like a vertical clitoral hood piercing, and possibly a triangle piercing. I intermittently contemplate a labret, especially since I believe it would compliment the facial piercings I already have. Every piercing I have, I intend to keep for life. With the labret, I am concerned that I would have to take it out at some point to allow gum-erosion to heal, as gum-erosion seems to be an unavoidable side effect of this piercing. If I learn of a way to prevent long-term problems and find I will be able to keep the piercing as long as I like, I would definitely consider a labret piercing. Tattoo-wise, I have a lot of blank skin. I have begun efforts to prepare my skin for some rather large, rather lengthy tattoo sessions. This preparation amounts to staying out of the sun, using moisturizer regularly, and other activities along those lines. I feel I will ultimately design the perfect tattoo for my face also, and will have it done shortly thereafter.
There are a few last things you should know about me. People who really know me, know my answer to these questions. I think the answers to these three questions will give you a better understanding as to the way my mind works.
What is the funniest thing you can think of?
Strangely enough, the funniest thing I can think of is a scene from "Pulp Fiction." "Why'd you hafta go and shoot Marvin in the face?!" The scene where John Travolta's character accidentally shoots the man sitting in the back seat of the car - that is the funniest thing I have ever seen. It's just so random, so senseless. Here he was, carrying on a conversation with the guy in the backseat when, bam, he accidentally shoots him in the face and brains fly everywhere. That's awesome. What a fucking weird movie. It's probably one of my favorites.
What flowers do you like?
Actually, I don't really like flowers. I think they are a waste of money. I would rather see flowers growing wild, or even in a garden. That said, I would probably say that sunflowers or johnny-jump-ups are my favorites. Especially the huge sunflowers. When someone gives me flowers, I usually take it as a sign of how little they know me. If it's my birthday, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, or any other flowery-holiday, I would rather have something functional. Or, even better, a piece of someone's time. Time is valuable. And by "time," I mean, spend time with me. Do something with me that I like. Walk around Fry's Electronics, for example.
What annoys you?
Separate but equal was deemed unconstitutional a long time ago. But for some unknown fucking reason, men and women still have separate bathrooms. If I bring up this issue to a woman, a common answer is, "men are gross, and their farts are gross, and their poop is gross, and why would I want to share a bathroom with them?" If I bring the issue up to a man, a common answer is, "women are gross, tampons are gross, pads are gross, why would I want to share a bathroom with a woman who can't even stand to pee?" Okay people, you know what? The bathroom is where everyone takes care of their dirty business. Grow up. As a woman, I agree that tampons and pads are gross. The thought of a man standing to pee doesn't phase me at all, but it's not something that I would stand and watch if given the chance. (Well, okay, maybe I might.) Let's make one big bathroom. Plenty of urinals all around. Lots of stalls. Everyone's shit stinks. And it's not like we toss the used tampons and pads on the floor. They go in the trashcan, fucktards. Get over it.
[Edit1: Someone suggested that there is actually a privacy issue with men and women sharing a bathroom. Huh? Are you telling me that a man can't look at a man, and a woman can't look at a woman? Sure, there are perverts out there, and yes, perverts have to pee too. But that's a lame excuse.]
[Edit2: Another response - what about children? Shouldn't we protect the privacy of children? Yes. Small children usually accompany their mothers or fathers into the restroom. Bigger kids do go into the bathroom alone. But what if big brother and little sister didn't have to go into separate bathrooms? What if mom and dad didn't have to go into different bathrooms? And think of all the other moms and dads out there; don't you think if they saw something happening to someone else's kid, they would step up? We have become a mass that is afraid to get involved. Well, enough! Let's take care of each other. Let's start with the children. And the bathroom. Let's start with the bathroom.]

Using the Annotations reader class
You can retrieve the backport175 annotations as well as regular Java 5 annotations (when running Java 5) at runtime using the API in the
Annotations class.
You retreive the annotations by specifying the:
- name of the annotations - this must be the fully qualified name of the annotation interface.
- class or member that is annotated - this is the
java.lang.Class(for class level annotations) or one of the member class in the
java.lang.reflect.*package for member level annotations (methods, fields and constructors)
Here is a sample part of the API:
The Annotation interface
All these methods in the
Annotations reader class return an instance of the type
This class has some useful methods like:
But most likely you want to cast the instance to the correct annotation type (interface).
Here is an example on how to read in the EJB 3 transaction annotation:
If an annotation has an element with a default value, the reflective API will off course gives you access to it if the
annotated class/member was not specifying it.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Tenth-ranked Louisville scored five runs in the second inning to take the deciding game of the series from the Miami baseball team 9-0 on Sunday.
The RedHawks fall to 4-8 with the setback while the Cardinals are now 10-4 on the season.
After trading zeroes in the first inning, UL put some traffic on the base paths in the bottom of the second. Nick Solak led off the frame with a double and came around on Collin Lyman's RBI single. Lyman scored three batters later on an RBI groundout by Sutton Whiting. The Cardinals added three more with two outs as Cole Sturgeon tripled in another run and scored himself on a wild pitch before Jeff Gardner's RBI double capped the inning.
MU put a run in scoring position in the top of the third as Steve Sada doubled with one out. Jared Ruxer did not allow any further trouble, finishing the inning with a strikeout and a groundout to keep the RedHawks off the board.
Ryan Powers (1-2) settled down after the big second and tossed three more shutout innings for the Red and White, allowing only three base runners in that span.
The Cardinals added two more runs in the sixth on Gardner's two-run homer and a two-run single by Whiting in the seventh finished the scoring for the afternoon.
Powers ended up pitching five innings for MU, striking out three batters while allowing five runs on five hits and five walks. UL's Ruxer scattered six hits in seven scoreless innings while fanning six batters.
Scott Slappey and Kendall Johnson combined for four of Miami's nine hits with each going 2-for-4 and Slappey adding a double.
The RedHawks are back in action on Tuesday when they host Xavier in their home opener. First pitch at Hayden Park is at 6 p.m.

Doug Meckes, Director of the Food, Agriculture and Veterinary Defense Division, DHS

By Rachel Stevens
Federal News Radio
Many people might not consider animals to be a vital part of national security. But Dr. Doug Meckes does.
Meckes is the Director of the Food, Agriculture, and Veterinary Defense Division at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
His work is featured as a part of Federal News Radio's week-long special series, Cool Jobs in Government.
"We are concerned about our food supply in this country, we are concerned about agricultural production in this country, and certainly animal health," Meckes says of his duties.
Despite what outsiders might assume, he says he doesn't spend his days in barns or chicken coops.
"We're primarily a policy shop. We work within different components in DHS that have food and agricultural interests."
And the implications of Meckes's work are broad.
He says a healthy agricultural system is important for a healthy economy.
"A disease that would be inadvertently or intentionally introduced into our animal population in this country would have not only impacts on our food supply, but significant trade and economic impacts as well."
Luckily, Meckes says technological advances are improving the quality of animal health nationwide.
"As a practical matter, certainly if you're a dairy farmer or a pig farmer you want your animals to be healthy and to be productive. So the better care they are given and the healthier they are, the better they will produce and provide products for the American tables."
Animal science technology is also looking towards improving human safety.
Meckes says he was recently able to attend a demonstration by the Auburn University vet school, where Labrador retrievers were able to identify an individual planted with explosives in a large crowd. They call these highly-trained canines "vapor wake dogs."
The government is committed to continuing to drive advancements in the field, Meckes says.
He says the Office of Personnel Management is currently studying federal veterinary manpower needs for the next 25 to 30 years. This includes not only agricultural and security-related jobs, but also positions dealing with wildlife conservation, drug testing at the Food and Drug Administration and National Institutes of Health, and even caring for animals at the Smithsonian National zoo.
"There are remarkable opportunities for young folks in this day and time to enter service within the federal government and to work in a vast array of activities that vets engage in within the government," Meckes says.

As with most things to come out of Washington these days, the budget deal negotiated by Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., and Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., is more of a political fix than a policy solution.
Although Ryan touts it as modest deficit reduction, "a firm step in the right direction," in truth its initial move is to increase spending and fees, then promises to tip-toe toward cutting spending years off in the future. That's the price many Republicans appear willing to pay for a bipartisan agreement that ensures there will be no government shutdown drama for the next two years.
The debt crisis will have to take a back seat to the GOP's election crisis. Avoiding yet another shutdown battle removes one large, potential distraction from focusing exclusively on Obama-care leading up to the 2014 midterms.
Clearly, a Senate controlled by Democrats along with a Democrat in the White House, limits Republicans' ability to make necessary and substantial changes to federal spending.
From a voters' standpoint, though, one has to wonder whether Republican promises of "Put us in charge again and we'll cut spending, honest, we mean it this time" ring hollow.
Even factoring in political realities, the Ryan-Murray deal doesn't inspire much confidence.
Under this proposed budget, spending will increase $63 billion in 2014-15, and various "fees," such as on air travel, also will go up. Income taxes won't, but make no mistake — several parts of American life will become a little more expensive.
What's particularly galling about the spending hike is that it undermines the sequester spending caps. Although they are a blunt instrument that sometimes causes collateral damage, they also are the first real cuts in spending in ages. Hey, after being on the wagon for several months, one little nip from the bottle can't hurt, right? For old times' sake?
To see a supposed budget hawk like Ryan become willing to chip away at the sequester after only two years gives little hope for his deal's promise to return to cutting spending by 2023. Even that is a paltry $23 billion spread over 10 years, with half supposedly coming in the last year.
Neither this nor any deal can bind future Congresses or presidents to spending cuts promised today. This is the old spending increases now, spending cuts later dance that Washington has been performing for decades. Charlie Brown has a better chance of finally kicking that football.
That is the principled case against the bill. In practical terms, though, the fiscal difference between it passing and failing is marginal — thimblefuls of red ink either bailed from or tossed into a crimson ocean. This is what passes for bipartisan progress in Washington these days.

While many brands and agencies are "exploring" iPad marketing and considering added-value apps, only a handful have actually made the investment and turned talk into action. I'm proud that our agency, Possible Worldwide, and client, General Mills, came together to produce one of the first and best branded apps in the marketplace. Now, the Betty Crocker iPad App has been nominated for a Webby People's Voice Award, and I would appreciate your help in giving the combined team the credit they deserve.
The Betty Crocker App Case Study:
Betty Crocker is not just a national brand: She's a national hero. The sharing and exchange of Betty Crocker recipes and tips between family and friends–and down through the generations–has made Betty the "original social media queen." General Mills asked us to take this brand trust, recipe knowledge, and need for instruction to a new level by creating one of the industry's first iPad cookbooks. The Betty Crocker team wanted to "take Betty into the 21st century" by creating a tool that cooks can more effectively use in the kitchen.
The new iPad app makes it easy to find recipes and features a "cook mode" that helps users who are deep into a recipe. We've created easy-to-read instructions and clear, enlarged food/meal imagery. We've also integrated multiple timers to help cooks stay on top of the tasks at hand, whether it's boiling an egg or baking a soufflé. The larger screen and innovative gestural interfaces make the Betty Crocker iPad app a visual, as well as practical, aid in the kitchen.
The Betty Crocker iPad app was an instant hit: In its first week, it reached #1 on the free app best-sellers chart (above Netflix and WebMD), and remains a best-seller to date.

Having taught outdoor survival skills for a very long time, I have actually found out that 4 aspects need to be in area for a survival scenario to have the possibility of a favorable result: expertise, capability, the will to make it through, and luck. While expertise and capability can be discovered, the will to make it through is hard-wired into our survival system and we could not understand we have it till we're tested. Individuals who were totally trained and fully equipped have actually provided up hope in survivable conditions, while others, who were less ill-equipped and well-prepared, have actually made it through versus all probabilities since they declined to provide up.
Constantly use the concept of the least quantity of energy exhausted for the optimum quantity of gain.
Any individual venturing into the wilderness-whether for an over night camping journey or a lengthy expedition-should comprehend the standard concepts of survival. The expertise got with discovering the abilities of survival will certainly allow you to evaluate your scenario, prioritize your requirements, and improvise any choices of equipment that you do not have with you.
Deal with the wilderness with regard: bring in just exactly what you can perform; leave just footprints, take just images.
Survival expertise and abilities should be learned-and practiced-under sensible conditions. The genuine survival ability is in comprehending why a fire will not begin and working out an option.
Civilians have actually registered on (and paid for) a course to enhance their understanding and abilities, not due to the fact that their life could depend on it (although, need to they discover themselves in a dangerous circumstance, it could well do), however due to the fact that they are interested in survival strategies in their own. While no one in the military forces would undervalue the significance of survival training, it is a reality that, if you desire to fly a Harrier, or end up being a United States Marine Mountain Leader, survival training is simply one of the lots of courses you have to carry out.
In the military, we classify the 4 fundamental concepts of survival as defense, food, water, and area. Food, while not a top priority in the brief term, ends up being more essential the longer your scenario lasts. We instruct the concepts in this order, however their top priority can alter depending on the environment, the condition of the survivor, and the scenario in which the survivor discovers him- or herself.
We likewise instruct sophisticated survival strategies to chosen workers who could end up being separated from their own forces, such as when running behind opponent lines. The 4 concepts of survival stay the exact same, however we replace "area" with "evasion".
Comprehending your environment will certainly permit you to choose the very best devices embrace the very best methods, and find out the proper abilities.
The conventional practice of being geared up and trained for a certain environment can show to be a significant difficulty for some explorations. Throughout my profession as a survival trainer, for example, I have actually been lucky enough to have actually worked on 2 of Sir Richard Branson's international circumnavigation balloon difficulties with Per Lindstrand and the late Steve Fossett. For these explorations, the duty for picking the survival devices and training the pilots was a special, if complicated, job.
The even more you comprehend how and why something works, the more ready you will certainly be to improvise and adjust needs to it be harmed or lost.
The opportunities of them landing in the very same area as each other under such situations would be slim to non-existent, so each pilot would require not just the needed devices to resolve the concerns of survival in each environment, however likewise the understanding to be able to utilize it with confidence and alone. As the balloon moved from one environment to another, the packs were turned appropriately, and the pilots re-briefed on their survival concerns for each environment.
As you read this book and strategy to put the strategies and abilities covered right here into practice, you will usually be equipping yourself for simply one certain kind of environment-but it's essential that you completely comprehend that one environment. Make certain you study not just exactly what the environment needs to provide you as a traveller-so that you can much better value it-but likewise exactly what it provides you as a survivor: there is often a really thin line in between fearing of the appeal of an environment and being at its grace. The even more you comprehend both the appeal and threats of an environment, the much better notified you will certainly be to comprehend and choose the ideal devices how finest to use it ought to the requirement emerge.
There is a thin line in between fearing of an envy and being at its grace in between environment.
Keep in mind, no matter how great your survival devices, or how comprehensive your understanding and abilities, never ever undervalue the power of nature. If things aren't going as prepared, never ever be reluctant to stop and re-assess your scenario and top priorities, and never ever hesitate to reverse and attempt once again later-the difficulty will certainly constantly exist tomorrow. Constantly keep in mind that the most reliable approach of dealing with a survival scenario is to prevent getting into it in the very first area.

GARETH DUNCAN looks at the Saffas who impressed in the leagues around the world over the weekend.
The European Cup final clash saw five Saffas in action. Defending champions Leinster had hooker Richardt Strauss and loosehead prop Heinke van der Merwe in their match-day squad, while Ulster started fullback Stefan Terblanche, scrumhalf Ruan Pienaar, lock and captain Johann Muller and No 8 Pedrie Wannenburg.
And it was Strauss and Van der Merwe's side that powered to a 42-14 triumph (the biggest winning margin in a European Cup final), securing back-to-back continental titles (their third in four seasons).
The front-rowers were influential up front with powerful performances. Strauss was a key feature in Leinster's run-on side and made a big all-round contribution, especially as a primary ball carrier. The Telegraph's Paul Ackford gave the former Cheetahs player's performance an 8/10 rating, saying: 'He's one of the game's fleet-footed hookers. Impressively mobile and good on the ball'. Van der Merwe made an impact off the bench as he formed part of a strong forwards showing in the second half and crossed the chalk in one of his team's five tries.
Ulster were still in the contest at the break, trailing 14-6. Pienaar kicked the points in the first half via two penalties. However, they buckled against Leinster's onslaught in the second half. Pienaar added another penalty, but struggled behind a dominated pack and his tactical kicking game was surprisingly below average. Muller couldn't inspire his team up front, while Terblanche was good under the high ball but he faded with Ulster's implosion. The former Sharks veteran also received a late yellow card for a dangerous tackle.
Wannenburg had a disappointing last game for his club (he departs to French outfit Castres next season). Ackford gave him a 4/10 rating, saying: 'Sadly, a disaster. A ludicrous one-handed pass which went nowhere and a series of missed tackles.'
This was Strauss's second European Cup title, while Van der Merwe becomes the 10th Saffa to lift the prestigious trophy.
In the European Cup Challenge final, tighthead prop Eugene van Staden's Biarritz edged captain and No 8 Joe van Niekerk's Toulon 21-18. Van Staden had a solid start for the victors before being taken off early in the second half, while Van Niekerk was a prominent feature in the lineouts but failed to have a strong influence on attack or defence.

Dark, dense and mysterious, the Northwest's forests once were feared by early settlers, who saw the shadowy woods as something to avoid. That was before they realized the economic value of the forests, whose trees could be felled and sold as timber to build houses, furniture and other commodities. Conservationists wanting to preserve the trees' quiet beauty worried over unchecked cutting and the difficulty of replanting on the region's rocky slopes; their battles to preserve their revered retreats planted the seeds from which grew the first policies governing forest management.
While forward-thinkers have always contemplated the beauty and balance of our planet, it wasn't until about three decades ago that people started truly understanding the ecological complexities of forests, both the trees and the creatures who dwell among them. Consider the spotted owl controversies that followed in the 1980s. Today the interrelationship between the ecology of healthy forests and the policies that manage them is the subject of numerous scientific studies, controversial planning decisions and vigorous debate — as well as a course at Willamette University, situated in the heart of some of the most recognized forestland in the country.
"We take the students out to the forest to help them see how different disturbances play out on the landscape. Then we spend the rest of the course wrestling with these ecological and policy issues."
—Karen Arabas, associate professor of environmental science
Karen Arabas, associate professor of environmental science, is an expert in forest fire history and ecology, having spent countless hours researching the ecological history of trees in central Oregon. Joe Bowersox, associate professor of politics, worked as a congressional fellow in the U.S. Senate as the Healthy Forest Initiative was developed and knows the intricacies of forest management policies. The two joined forces eight years ago to teach the interdisciplinary Forest Ecology and Policy course. Offered every other year, the class is now required for all environmental science majors, and many politics students also enroll.
"One of the fun things about this course is we can show how a lot of different forces work to push the ecological research and the policy of forests," Arabas says.
A week's worth of field trips are fun as well, though students must return to campus weeks before the semester begins. They trek across the state to visit the forest-related sites that will be at the center of their lessons — touring a lumber mill in Roseburg, exploring the site of the Biscuit Fire in the Siskiyou National Forest, stopping at Crater Lake and traveling on to the Metolius Preserve in Central Oregon, among other sites.
Different agencies manage land in different ways as they try to strike a balance between forest health and socioeconomic needs — and the students should see that firsthand, Bowersox and Arabas say. So as part of their excursions, students meet the professionals who put the policies into practice, including foresters from the U.S. Bureau of Land Management and the Oregon Department of Forestry.
"When the Oregon Department of Forestry first started coming up with a management plan, they brought in scientists because they wanted to know 'How can we keep this forest healthy while still meeting our harvest objectives?'" Arabas says. "A lot more research money is now put into studying ecology, and we have many class discussions about the feedback between that research and the actual policy. We take the students out to the forest to help them see how different disturbances play out on the landscape. Then we spend the rest of the course wrestling with these ecological and policy issues."
It's a sunny day in August, and the class trails Walt Kastner, a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) forester, on a hike down through the Nestucca River watershed area until they reach 10 acres of old growth on BLM land. "What I really want you to do here is look around," he says when he finally stops.
There is a hallowedness to the place. Students note large trees, numerous species, high canopy cover, forest floor strewn with dead wood, and profound silence. "The thing to keep in mind here is how complex and irregular this looks," Kastner says. "Some of these trees are about 450 years old. We can try to groom other areas to have these characteristics, but we'll never be able to recreate this old growth." He speaks with a respect bordering on reverence.
Certain bird species, including spotted owls and marbled murrelets, find sanctuary in these venerable forests, whose qualities make them the ideal habitat. By examining old growth areas, scientists can discover much about general forest health, Bowersox says, such as what makes an ecosystem sustainable, or what happens when a fire destroys canopy cover. Even in Oregon, few old growth areas still stand, and in the area the students visit this day, old growth has nearly vanished due to harvesting in the coast range.
After hiking back to the road, students pile into vans and travel to another site nearby, a 50-acre area of managed forest that was part of the Phoenix Project timber sale. The bulk of these trees were about 70 years old when the area was logged in 1998; enough wood was removed to build 73 single-family homes. Here Kastner notes the steps BLM took to mimic old growth and preserve the area's health — leaving four of the largest cut trees on the ground as food to prevent bark beetles from attacking those trees still standing, then planting new trees next to downed wood so the saplings won't get uprooted during logging.
"This area is a good example of a federal agency trying new techniques to maintain a viable economic product yet still address ecosystem issues," Bowersox says. "It's about learning to balance."
Negotiating that balance is a conversation that has only taken place in the last 15 to 20 years, Bowersox says, and the debate has had a significant impact on the number of trees felled each year. In the late 1980s and early '90s, between 4 billion and 6 billion board feet were removed from federal lands in Oregon and Washington each year (a board foot is 1' x 1' x 1"). Today that number is between 500 million and 900 million.
Oregon's land management practices now include more rules about economic viability and sustained yield, so that local schools and counties can continue receiving financial benefits from logging. Consequently, commercial cutting occurs much more on state lands than federal lands.
On a visit to Crater Lake, the students observe how the National Park Service monitors a fire that has been burning there all summer. Discussing fires' impact on forests, Arabas says disturbances such as insects or fires were once seen only as attacks on an economic commodity, an attitude that prompted agencies to extinguish the blazes immediately. In the 1970s, scientists started recognizing that these disturbances could be critical to forest health. Some species, such as lodgepole pines, actually depend on fires to spread their seeds and create new growth. Differing priorities translate into differing policies about how to approach fires, whether natural fires or controlled burns — a debate that continues to rage at the state and federal level.
Two months after their summer excursions, as the autumn rains begin in earnest, the students gather in a Collins Science Center classroom, each group poring over ideas for their final research papers. Audrey Squires '07 looks for correlations between large woody debris and the presence of cutthroat trout in creeks. Cari Schruth '07 wants to know if there are connections between the types of land use in Oregon's forests and areas that experience landslides. Michelle Gregoire '07 examines the Elliott State Forest near Coos Bay and whether public comments and scientific reviews have influenced the management plan for the area. "I think this is a really interesting study because it takes into account everything we've talked about in class — the economic, scientific and social interests," says Jeff Hancock '07. "Those are all influential in how people assess the area."
Accounting for all interests and finding a balance — that is the ultimate lesson Arabas and Bowersox hope students will remember as they continue their studies or embark on careers in forest management. It's a mission far beyond that of early conservationists trying to save their beloved retreats, one that requires the next generation to see both the forest and the trees.
Karen Arabas and Joe Bowersox co-edited Forest Futures: Science, Politics, and Policy for the Next Century, a collection of essays by scientists, policy analysts and public lands managers that address issues surrounding the future of the nation's forests. To purchase the book, visit the Willamette Store.

Actor Miles Teller Can Tell It To Our Hearts – The Daily Swoon
More like Miles TELLER it to our hearts — right?! Bad jokes aside, get yourself acquainted with a hot up-and-coming actor in today's Daily Swoon.
Teller has been making a name for himself with roles in films like the indie drama 'Rabbit Hole' alongside major actress Nicole Kidman, and the remake of 'Footloose,' in which he played the hick-flavored hottie Willard. He's so awesome that he was cast in the bad-kids party flick 'Project X' as himself! That's some serious cred for a guy with only a few bullet points on his acting resume.
He can be seen next in the upcoming film '21 and Over' as a college guy who goes out to celebrate his 21st birthday with his friends the night before his big medical exam. He's also starring in 'The Spectacular Now' with lucky ladies Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Shailene Woodley.
We're big fans of Teller's Twitter account, where he posts tons of photos of what he's up to and tweets funny things like, "I'm not a shrimp expert but 30 for $11.99 seems like a pretty good deal Red Lobster." So you know, if you ever get the chance to go on a date with him, you can look forward to shrimp and all you can eat of those tasty cheddar biscuits.
Check out some pics of Teller below, including a couple of cute GIFs of him from 'Footloose.'

Sat 3 @ Chicago L - Back to back games, this one being on the road, is always tough.
Wed 7 vs Philadelphia L

Chopping vegetables at high speeds and whipping up the perfect dish under the pressure of a timer is not an easy challenge. However, a
Brittany Mantlo, 18, was one of 10 aspiring chefs to take on the kitchen challenge at The International Culinary School at The Art Institute of Raleigh–Durham on March 2.
The competition selected the finalists from submitted entries for the opportunity to showcase their talents to win tuition scholarships. Each finalist was required to prepare a two-course meal from recipes distributed in advance.
"I applied for it at the last minute and there was an essay I had to write about what got me started with cooking," Mantlo said. "I had to send in a recipe that I made for my parents' anniversary."
The aspiring chefs were judged on five technical skills — including knife skills, safety and sanitation, organization, cooking techniques and clean-up — and five qualities of the finished dishes — temperature, taste, texture, portion size and presentation.
"It showed me different ways I could do things, like sautéing chicken instead of just baking it," Mantlo said. "I was one of a few there who that had never taken a cooking or a home economics class."
Mantlo's desire to cook was not only a reflective of her creativity, but a diagnosis of celiac disease that permanently changed her eating habits. Celiac disease is an inherited autoimmune condition that affects children and adults. Triggered by foods that contain gluten, such as wheat, barley and rye, it creates a toxic reaction that damages the lining of the small intestine and prevents the proper absorption of nutrients.
"I diagnosed in September of 2011, and I didn't know what it was until the doctor told me about it," Mantlo said. "I had been throwing up four to five times day from March to September of 2011 and I lost 15 pounds."
With no cure for the disease, the only treatment for celiac patients is a gluten-free diet. Mantlo's preparation for the competition consisted of researching gluten-free dishes and practicing knife skills, in addition to an information session provided to finalists a week before the competition.
"I practiced my knife segment by cutting mushrooms, tomatoes, onions and other different things like mincing parsley, which is really time consuming," Mantlo said. "A girl actually cut her finger during the competition, so it's very fast paced with the parsley."
Mantlo's dish, which she called anniversary chicken, combined Cajun seasonings and eggs before baking the chicken at 350 degrees for 30 to 45 minutes. She also prepared a stir fry and cheesy mashed potatoes within two hours.
"You have a little more time than you would on a cooking show," Mantlo said. "It was kind of crowded in a kitchen with eight students cooking with TV crews, with staff and student chefs to help you get what you needed; and you were sharing the stove with someone else."
The competition was judged by professional chefs and culinary faculty, who name one first place and one second place winner.
"After you got done cooking, you take the plate to the judges, and we couldn't see who they were or how they would bring us in or had plates set out," Mantlo said. "It was very stressful. You want to see their facial expressions when they taste it, but you can't."
Although she didn't take home the top prizes at the competition, Mantlo was proud of her dish and treasures the support of family.
"I was pleased with everything except for decoration, but I was never too good with my presentation skills," Mantlo said. "I like the way everything tasted and turned out. My family was excited, and my grandmother and aunt came from
As she finishes her senior year at
"At first I thought about going to the Art Institute for four years, but I decided that I wanted to go to Coastal for a cosmetology license," Mantlo said. "I want to go to the institute later and do cosmetology on the side to help pay for my degree. I'm really excited."
Mantlo hopes to use her degree to open a restaurant that serves gluten-free dishes in the future. She believes the competition is the start to a rewarding journey in the culinary world.
"It's a good experience and you meet new people and learn new things with it," she said. "It's some something that can be nerve-wracking, but in the end you will enjoy it."

Ok, I have a question.
I think the "Top Ten" list that Westbank Hornet posted is funny. It's very clever.
Is it insulting? Is it hateful? Is it mean-spirited? Is it angry? Of course not.
Is it a total crock? Of course it is.
Is it the fact that it appears in the newspaper instead of just being posted on the internet that irritates you? I admit I haven't read everything, but almost all the articles I've seen are bashing George and Ray, not New Orleans.
By the way, Robarchek's column is on the comics page, where it belongs.

In a recent column, retired Judge Don Rushing correctly stated that it is the people in the judicial system who are the problem, and not the system itself.
However, in that same column, Judge Rushing appears to disparage the people's right to criticize a system that is clearly broken, regardless of the reason.
To emphasize my point, let's take a look at the case that dominated the news in the days immediately following the publication of Judge Rushing's column. It was a case from Utah concerning a murderer named Ronnie Lee Gardner.
Today is a red letter day for all you dads out there. It's Father's Day and, if you're lucky, you can look forward to a special meal, a hand-lettered card from a small child or grandchild and of, course, the ubiquitous necktie.
Since 1966 when President Lyndon B. Johnson signed a presidential proclamation declaring the third Sunday of June as Father's Day, Americans have set aside that day to honor their fathers and grandfathers.
Tuesday is a critical day for South Carolina library users and supporters.
Gov. Mark Sanford has vetoed all state aid for public libraries. Library supporters must act now to urge the Legislature to overturn vetoes 31 and 92.
The General Assembly meets Tuesday to consider overriding these and 105 other vetoes.
The governor is working hard to secure the votes he needs to sustain his vetoes. We have never faced anything like this before, and the result will be devastating to library services in Lancaster County.
On June 1, while visiting my parents, we made our usual visit to Walmart. This visit turned out to be anything but usual. After loading our bags in the car, we returned to my parents' house. I then took my mom to the doctor.
As I started to get out of the car, I noticed that my purse was not in the car. I called my dad and he looked around the house with no luck. I then realized I had left it in the shopping cart at Walmart. We returned to Walmart where I looked in the closest trashcans with no luck.
Do we save it or let it go? That's the question Lancaster County officials are facing with the historic jail building on West Gay Street in downtown Lancaster.
The top of the building is sinking and an engineer has told the county the building could collapse. The building hasn't been used as a jail in years, but has housed the county's Emergency Operation Center, Lancaster County Fire Service and Emergency Management. After a structural engineer informed the county of the problem, the operation center was moved out of the building.
I want to thank Faulkner Animal Hospital and all the staff there for their care and concern for my pet poodle, Maggie. My poodle had multiple problems like blindness, along with diabetes. She was like a family member to us. The doctor and staff there treated her above and beyond what most animal facilities would have done. They ran tests and explained to me in layman's terms what they meant and what we could try next.
They watched her constantly for several days and did everything they could for her.
Recently, Dance Works Unlimited held its spring recital at the Lancaster High School auditorium. I attended the afternoon performance at which a selection was choreographed to the song sung at the graveside of Elyse Hardin.
Ashlyn, Elyse's sister, appeared radiant in white as if an angel ascending to heaven. I was moved to tears and felt the pangs of grief my cousins are feeling with the untimely death of Elyse. Elyse was killed in an automobile accident during the past Christmas holidays.
I am an 88-year-old veteran of World War II who served proudly with the 1st Marine Division in Okinawa and China.
After viewing the recent war series, "Pacific," on HBO, I am angry and embarrassed with the constant use of the "F" word while depicting Marines in battle.
I went into the front line on Okinawa on May 9, 1945 with the 1st Marine Division. Fighting could only be described as pure hell. I never heard the "F" word.
As your S.C. House representative for District 45, one of the most important issues I must tackle is the state's budget. Recently, there has been a lot of talk about out-of-control spending and government waste.
Conservative-minded citizens have rallied together to send that message strongly to their elected officials and, as a relative newcomer to the statehouse, I cannot express my thanks enough for your activism.
Bunny was picked up by Lancaster County Animal Control several weeks ago. She was found wandering along the streets of downtown Lancaster. The veterinarian estimated her to be about 11 weeks old.
She had been thrown out to fend for herself with no food or shelter from the elements. That is a cruel and heartless act enough, but Bunny had several strikes already against her.
When I read the headlines, "A call for peace, cooperation," in the June 2 edition of The Lancaster News, I was simply disgusted for the citizens of Lancaster County.
I personally served as the eyes, ears and even hands for law enforcement in Lancaster County. I cooperated fully with Lancaster County Sheriff's Office leading to the arrest of a drug dealer several months ago.
The dealer was arrested with drugs, a large sum of cash and guns.
Mother Sylvia Jones is a lifetime Lancaster County resident who lives in the Southside community. She has had her share of obstacles in her 79 years of life. After her mother died, Mother Sylvia took on the responsibility of raising her three siblings at the age of 17. The youngest sibling was 4 years old.
Mother Sylvia nurtured and cared for her siblings with great pride and joy. She continued the nurturing when she had her own children.
Andrew Jackson High School recently had to drop back and punt, regarding the Volunteers' coaching vacancy.
Thrown for a loss late in the game, AJ's pressing challenge was to salvage the situation as best it could.
Given the situation, AJ officials got off a boomer to get back in the game.
In case you missed the latest saga in the AJ football situation, as the 2009-10 school term wound to a close, school officials were faced with the unexpected situation of filling the school's football coaching vacancy.
The 8 a.m. Econ 101 class that many of us skipped had some very valuable information in its lesson. It would help explain why we are headed to an economic collapse which I believe will arrive next year.
If you get your news and information from some talking head on TV, you are misinformed and uninformed.
The nine states without an income tax are growing faster than the nine states with the highest income tax rates. To quote Gomer Pyle, "Surprise! Surprise!"
We've lit candles. We've held press conferences. We've asked for peace and cooperation from the pulpits. Now what? We've acknowledged that there is an increasing amount of violence.
And that violence has taken the lives of several people just in the last few months. The most recent victim was 3-year-old Jaylen Jackson. Jaylen apparently got caught in the crossfire of a gunfight.
The Lancaster County Community Garden Council would like to acknowledge and thank the individuals and groups who support the Lancaster County community garden. Thank you, Ben and Susan Snipes and the Carolinas Cowboy Church for opening the 2010 season with an old-fashioned mule plow day.
Thanks to Pastor Jack Nunn and his wife, Pat, and Carolinas Cowboy Church, Lisa and Wayne Jordan and their son, Alston, Melton "Hoot" Gibson, Don Walters, Bud Limas, Frank Burgos, Jimmy Blackmon, J.L. Sandifer and Shelby Caldwell for making plow day a tremendous success.
Every year about this time, we wish our readers a happy summer, but we also like to remind you to be careful when you're out having fun. Much of the advice we give, you've surely heard many, many times before.
Wear sunscreen when you're outside. Sunburns not only cause temporary pain, but can lead to skin cancer later on.
If a recently released Federal Trade Commission discussion draft entitled, "Potential Policy Recommendations to Support the Reinvention of Journalism," should ever actually be adopted as law, the press will no longer be free, in any sense of the word.
I think senior citizens should be housed in jails and criminals in nursing homes. This way the senior citizens would have access to showers, hobbies and walks.
They'd receive unlimited free prescriptions, dental and medical treatment, and they'd receive money instead of paying it out. They would have constant video monitoring, so they could be helped instantly if they fell or needed assistance. Bedding would be washed twice a week and all clothing would be ironed and returned to them.

If you're looking for a cat with a big personality, Teresa is the one for you! This playful feline is an ASPCA office foster cat, and she keeps the staff entertained every day with her many quirks. She loves attention and affection from her special people, and she's ready for anything that comes her way.
Teresa would thrive in a teens-and-up home without other cats. To ensure her optimal urinary health, she'll need her new family to provide her with prescription food. Our Adoptions team can talk you through Teresa's care routine. Adopt Teresa today!
Teresa is available for adoption at the ASPCA Adoption Center. If you are interested in adopting please call our Adoptions department in New York City at (212) 876-7700, ext. 4900. To learn more about Teresa, please visit her page.
Wish you could adopt them all? There are other ways to help. This holiday season, do the next best thing for homeless animals by making a gift to the ASPCA.
Dear Theresa, I see your beautiful face on the ASPCA adoption website. How can it be that some wonderful person has not come along to scoop you up and give you the best, most loving home in the world? You are so incredibly soft and pretty and you have such a fabulous, fun-loving personality. I love you, Theresa. You're the best.
Theresa looks just like my late beloved Snowflake - she could almost be her twin! Snowy had CRF, which I treated with fluid treatments for three years before she suddenly became much more frail and stopped eating. She lived for 19 years and I still miss her! I cannot take Theresa, since she needs to be an only cat, because I have a senior cat already. I hope she finds a loving home!
Its to bad you could not adopt her, but I could adopt her if only she could get to Alaska. I have 3 cats that I know she would get along with even if they say she couldn't she would. I would show her plenty of affection and provide the best home she ever could have. I love all my babies, and that is exactly what they are my babies. My wife and I both love them so very much. Just send her to Alaska

Beau, or anyone... Can someone provide some insight for me on how to use this SPI Engine object?· I'm totally lost, not familiar with SPI at all.· Googled it to death, and still lost..· My device has the MISO, MOSI, SCK, CSB, and DRDY lines like I see others that I read about... But the object doesn't seem to use the same names for the signals?· Dpin,Cpin,SLpin, MSBPRE,LSBPRE,MSBPOST,LSBPOST...· ?· I can guess that maybe Cpin is the clock...· MSB is most significant bit, etc...· I never really used shiftin or out for much when using stamps...·
All I want to do is read an 8bit·value from the device's eeprom at 0x1F..· Maybe later on, expand after I've learned a little about the protocol etc...··But I am stumped and at your mercy.
I guess I should mention I am looking at the demo code below in my attempts..·

From 2007 to 2009, we saw the rise of the low-powered, dirt-cheap netbook. Today these clunky computers are frequently mocked -- but they did teach us a lesson.
These oft-ridiculed, low-powered laptops were crushed by the iPad, but had an important part to play in the story of computing. Check it out.
It's no surprise at the IFA show to see another manufacturing power join the smartwatch market. But weren't Netbooks left for dead after consumers moved to tablets instead?

Kind of like a Chromebook, but with Windows 8.1, this is perhaps the best laptop deal I've seen all year.

Microsoft is pushing inexpensive laptops to contain the growing Google-fueled threat. But they could wind up as extinct as the late-naughts netbook.
