I'm just hoping for a second art book in the Collector's Edition. But if that doesn't happen, I guess I'll just keep checking back here. Thanks for sharing the new pictures. I especially like the one with the elevated structure in the swampy/coastal area.

Just got the artbook, and i think i might get Objectiphilia. I'm in love with this book, not only is the art truly amazing and astonishing, but also the book itself is awesome. It has a great cover, and the layout of the pages is very nice (also the paint strokes on the pages are a real nice touch). Thanks for the great art guys, I must say, you are great artists who can really pass over a feeling by your work.
For anyone who hasn't bought one, get one (or two, it's that great).

Ballistic Publishing makes the best art books out there (Expose and d'Artiste among them) and ImagineFX is probably the best art magazine around. The only qualifier to the above statement is that the Guild Wars 2 art book is as good as anything Ballistic puts out.

Here's a couple more of mine I can post...
The first is the gold medal winner in the concept art category of Spectrum 16.
The second piece is a selection for this year's Into the Pixel exhibition. It also earned the Master Award in Expose 7. It's an exploratory piece that was less concerned with the Guild Wars setting but rather scale and energy of the environment.

The SA U20s ran in seven tries in their 51-19 win over Argentina on Saturday.
The Baby Boks held a slender 15-12 lead at half-time. After 19 minutes, Patrick Howard went over near the corner flag. Flyhalf Tony Jantjies kicked the conversion and a penalty before No 8 Fabian Booysen crashed over right before the break.
Fullback Marius Schmidt scored his side's third try in the 53rd minute (23-12) and four minutes later inside centre Jan Serfontein scored to stretch the lead to 30-12. When Argentina lock Guillermann Cruz received his second yellow card, South Africa took full advantage, with Marzauk Maarman and Abriel Griesel (two) scoring further tries.
The next match will be played on Tuesday with the final game of the three-match series taking place next Saturday.

The eight short-listed design teams have been announced for a competition to redevelop the Windermere Steamboat Museum on the shores of Windermere.
The Lakeland Arts Trust recently secured initial support for a £7.4m Heritage Lottery Fund bid, including £494,000 development funding, to take the project forward. The project aims to create an exciting and active museum which will use the lake and the lakeside setting to display the nationally significant collection of steam launches, motor boats, yachts and other vessels which are all associated with Windermere.
The first stage of the competition attracted 114 expressions of interest. The short-list (in order of the architect leading the multi-disciplinary design team) is as follows: Carmody Groarke; Adam Khan Architects; Niall McLaughlin Architects; Terry Pawson Architects; Reiach and Hall Architects; 6a Architects; Sutherland Hussey Architects; Witherford Watson Mann Architects.
Martin Ainscough, Chairman of the Lakeland Arts Trust, commented: "We are very encouraged by the quality of entries in the architectural competition and the judging panel had a difficult decision to select the final eight for the shortlist. We are looking forward to working with the successful practice to create a world class facility in the heart of the Lake District.."
Gordon Watson, the trust's chief executive, added: "We are looking for a fresh, well-detailed and sensitive response for the stimulating and highly significant site on Windermere and to display the museum's wonderful collection of boats."
The second stage of the competition will seek design concepts for the project. Architects will need to take into account the requirement of displaying the boats and other items in the collection in the exhibition space and wet dock, and enabling visitors to see the boats being restored in the conservation workshop, as well as designing an appropriate facility for the location to provide a world-class visitor experience.
The design proposals will be subject to public display and comment in late October 2011 and the design teams will be invited to present their schemes to the jury panel at final interviews in late November 2011.
A GOVERNMENT appointed planning inspector has ruled that an ancient Lake District fell pass is out of bounds for motorised vehicles.
The decision by the Secretary of State to make Garburn Pass, between Troutbeck and Kentmere, a 'restricted byway' follows three years of legal argument.
It means that any motorist or motorcyclist using the pass is committing a criminal offence and could face serious legal consequences.
The inspector went through hundreds of pages of documents ranging from maps of 1822, guide books of the 1880s, and photographs of motorbikes using the pass in the 1920s.
The Lake District National Park Authority has also announced that thanks to around £55,000 of Government funding invested in repairs following the 2009 floods, the pass is probably in better condition than it has been for hundreds of years.
"The storms of November 2009 badly damaged both sides of the pass, especially the western side where the track effectively became a river, and most of the surface ended up on the main road," said National Park Countryside Access Adviser Nick Thorne.
"We were able to obtain significant funding under the Paths for the Public Project, funded by Defra, the Rural Development Programme for England, and Cumbria County Council. And we have now completely rebuilt the worst affected areas in three stages with the work being carried out by our own staff, the National Trust, and a local contractor."

DHS finds classified cyber sharing program slow to take off
Thursday - 6/13/2013, 6:44am EDT
The Enhanced Cybersecurity Services initiative is supposed to expand the number of companies that receive classified or top secret information from the government about real or potential threats.
While many companies are interested, few have decided to make the investment.
Jenny Menna, the Homeland Security Department's director of stakeholder engagement and cyber information resilience division, said about 54 companies have expressed interest, but since it's a voluntary program and the government doesn't provide any funding, businesses must decide if it makes sense to invest in a secure facility and in network upgrades to handle classified data.
Menna, who spoke Wednesday at the Information Security and Privacy Advisory Board meeting in Washington, said the Enhanced Cybersecurity Services (ECS) program hasn't expanded beyond the original 17 or so companies.
The White House renamed ECS as part of the February executive order on cybersecurity. DHS took over the program from the Defense Department about a year ago and changed names from the Defense Industrial Base pilot.
Under ECS, DHS shares classified and top secret cyber threat or indicators with certain companies that are considered national critical infrastructure in an effort to improve network security across the board.
One-way sharing
The goal of the program is not to replace existing cyber capabilities, but to improve what they already do by sharing indicators, which could be anything from signatures to malware or other types of data. ECS is only one-way sharing from the government to industry partners.
"This is a voluntary program," Menna said. "We send an indicator file to participants about one day a week. We are about to move to twice a week."
She said the DoD DIB pilot focused only on Internet service providers (ISPs), but ECS will include a broader assortment of commercial service providers, including managed security companies and others.
Menna said companies must sign an agreement with DHS and then get accredited to accept classified and top secret data.
And it's that process that may be the main reason why none of the 54 companies that showed initial interest since the executive order came out have moved into the program.
Part of deciding to make this significant investment is vendors must understand the value of the data and the program.
Value of data slowly coming more clear
Greg Garcia, a former DHS assistant secretary for cybersecurity, said the value of the information sharing program is clear.
"I support the financial services Information Sharing and Analysis Center (ISAC), and they have dozens and dozens and sometimes well over 100 emails a day among various members trading information about threats that they are seeing, attacks, phishing attempts," said Garcia, who now is a consultant and a member of the advisory board. "The conversation goes around 'Are you seeing this?' 'Yes I'm seeing this.' 'What are you doing?' 'I'm doing this.' So they take that information back and are scanning their networks for the information that has been shared and therefore they are prepared. They are forewarned and forearmed. That kind of information comes from company members. It comes from the ISAC. It comes from U.S. CERT and partners and stakeholders from all around the cybersecurity community."
He added this type of program is something DHS has long envisioned, so the fact it's coming to fruition, though a bit more slowly than many would like, is a positive sign.
DHS is having more success with an unclassified information sharing program.
60-40 split
The Cyber Information Sharing and Collection Program (CISCP) shares threat indicators two-ways, between the government and 45 companies or organizations across 14 different critical infrastructure sectors.
Menna said of the 45 agreements in place, about 13 are ISACs and the rest are with companies.
"We've shared almost 20,000 indicators in the first year or so," Menna said. "About 60 percent come from the private sector to the government and other participants."
She said DHS anonymizes the information when it shares threats and indicators with federal agencies through the U.S. Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT). The CISCP program also started as a pilot between DHS, DoD and the financial services companies to share unclassified indicators.
The success of these information sharing programs is because the value is clear from the beginning, and DHS continues to add more value to it.
For example, Menna said DHS hosts a quarterly meeting at both the classified and unclassified levels to share threat technology and mitigation best practices.
Garcia said companies are approaching both these programs cautiously.

SPRINGFIELD – During the holidays, especially on New Year's Eve, the incidence of alcohol-related traffic fatalities increases.
"Many people who don't normally drink alcohol will unfortunately find themselves taking a drink to be sociable on New Year's Eve, and often one drink is followed by another and another," said Dr. Ronald Gross, chief, Division of Trauma, Acute Care Surgery, and Surgical Critical Care, Baystate Medical Center.
"To protect yourself and the safety of others on the road, you should not be drinking alcohol at all if you plan on getting behind the wheel," he added.
Dr. Gross said people shouldn't feel pressured to have a New Year's drink to be sociable, whether at a friend's home or out partying on the town.
"Order a non-alcoholic beer or non-alcoholic sparkling champagne, a cola with a twist of lime, or even a healthy cranberry juice with a twist of lime," he said.
Dr. Gross offers the following tips to those partying on New Year's Eve:

It details strategies to increase biking, walking, maximize open spaces, reduce crime, increase nutritious options in schools, and work with local restaurants to improve healthy options.
While the toolkit does not specifically mention health in all policies (HiAP), it does provide a list of partners to work with on each strategy such as planning departments or police authorities. Further, it provides actionable steps that these different partners can take to improve the health impact of some of their policy decisions.
As a local jurisdiction who is interested in implementing HiAP, this toolkit can be useful to educate other sectors on some of the steps they could take to improve health outcomes around obesity.

Whether you've known your soon-to-be roommate for years or have never met before, there will be ups and downs to living with another person. Here are my helpful tips on setting up a positive roommate relationship and what to do if you and your roommate aren't hitting it off.
Good luck in your roommate search but don't sweat it if you and your roommate don't get along. We all want the roommate who will become our best friend for life but many times, that doesn't happen. Surround yourself with people who accept you and who you get along with.

Whether you dread clothes shopping or can't wait to go back to school in style, there's no denying that new clothes can put a serious dent in your budget. Although college students can spend small fortunes on their new fall wardrobes, they definitely don't have to: Clothing happens to be one of the easiest categories to cut back your spending if you know where to go.
While some people may turn up their noses at the thought of shopping at Goodwill or other second-hand stores, they can actually be great places to find brand names at very low prices. Just recently, I bought some clothes that included a Lip Service dress and tops from Express and Loft among other popular stores...and I walked out of the store having paid less than $20 for all of my new clothes, some of which didn't even appear to have ever been worn. I am very picky about what I wear (I usually prefer black) and even I manage to find several items each time I visit a second-hand shop.
While shopping at thrift stores is fantastic, you must buy with skepticism as you would at any store. Don't load up your shopping cart just because the items are cheap – prices add up and if you are careless, you may end up spending as much money as you would have at a department store! Remember that items have been owned before so check garments for any defects before purchasing. Also, don't forget that a pair of fabric scissors can work wonders: Don't be afraid to get a cheap, plain top and alter it yourself to make it an original.
All of this saved money can really benefit college students throughout the school year. More money in the bank means bigger budgets for textbooks, school supplies and fun...and who DOESN'T need a nice day out with friends after a hard week of studying? The better you learn to balance your budget, the more often you will be able to feel guilt-free treating yourself to a study-free weekend.

For me, there's nothing like the feeling of driving around my hometown and getting flashbacks of good memories with my friends and family. There is nothing that can replace the familiarity of your childhood home but it's important to make your dorm/apartment and your campus your second home. Here are a few things I did with my college living space to feel more like home:

Attending college can be both fun and challenging. As a student, you'll definitely have lot of new experiences but it's best to know about the good and bad.
The good things about college experiences are that they constantly revolve around activities. In college, it wouldn't hurt to get involved with a club or organization that interests you – this way, you can make new friends and give yourself a sense of school pride. Also, doing community service with your school can impact you socially because you're reaching out to your own community and getting to know more people. Plus, joining an honor society or a club that associates with your favorite subject will sweeten your college experience by bringing out your smart and talented edge.
Even though new experiences can be exciting, it's just as important to be very careful when having them. In college, there are many parties and socials and if one over-parties, their academic performance can easily suffer. Also, peer pressure is always present: People may try to lure you into dangerous addictions like smoking, drinking, etc. – this can also lead to academic failure so watch out.
Now knowing the pros and cons of college experiences, you can rest assured that there are ways to have a great time in school. First, academics always come first so make much of your time "study time" as to not lose sight of your academic goals. Secondly, there's nothing wrong with going to socials but it's best to do it in moderation. Finally, listen to yourself: Know what's best for you and understand that what you do while attending college will stick with you...especially thanks to the Internet. Enjoy your time in college but remember not to lose sight of your goals!

I took AP Statistics in high school and I attend Wofford College full-time during the traditional school year. This summer, however, I've been taking statistics at UNCG...so what gives? Well, Wofford would only accept AP scores of 4 or higher and I received a 3 and after my late declaration of comp-sci as a major, I figured out that I actually need it. So off to summer school I went – at a university I wasn't familiar with and with professors I didn't know and students who were strangers, no less – but I'm actually thrilled that I had the opportunity to study at another institution, albeit only for a summer course.
UNCG was beautiful and way different than Wofford. And the class was organized, taught and tested on completely differently. The textbook was all online – something I'd never experienced at my main college – but I loved it: All of the resources, tables and info were in one place and there was great statistical software built right in! But having it all online meant that the class was entirely learn-for-yourself, at your own pace, in your own time (which I had NONE of). It was different but I appreciated the class and continuing my coursework over the summer actually kept me grounded and on top of things I was involved with. Even a) planning a two-day music festival with friends b) working a full-time management position at my pool and c) applying for another internship (stay tuned for another post) didn't keep me from passing!
It was rough with the mix of everything else I was involved with but my experience in the class itself was pretty positive. So if you're considering taking classes at another institution during the summer or over break, remember that it won't be bad...it will just be different. It will cause you to form better and varying study habits that will most likely help you in the future and having that structured schedule in the summer will actually help in everything else you're involved with as well. Embrace the opportunity!
Mike Sheffey is a junior at Wofford College double majoring in computer science and Spanish. He loves all things music and has recently taken up photography. Mike works for an on-campus sports broadcasting company as well as the music news blog PropertyOfZack.com.

Hey there, Scholarships.com readers! I'm Mary, a junior English major/business minor student at Concordia University of Wisconsin.
I'll admit, I didn't give my college search as much time or thought as I should have. I chose to attend Concordia for two main reasons: I was offered a substantial academic scholarship (and rather a lot of financial aid) and was able to take a free trip to London, Normandy and Paris through the honors program during my freshman year. However, my time at Concordia has been well spent as I have been able to take a number of fascinating classes with some exceptional professors, make a few lifelong friends, travel and even get some decent sleep.
I love having a busy schedule so this year I plan to intern in Milwaukee and hopefully (fingers crossed!) head to New York City in the winter. I've indulged myself a little with my English major – reading and being impacted by what I read has always been one of the best parts of my life – and I am looking forward to a career that not only allows but requires me to do just that.
The opportunity to be a virtual intern with Scholarships.com is one I couldn't pass up: Not only is this the sort of writing experience necessary for my resume, but it's a bit out of my comfort zone. I hope to challenge myself to be a resource to you readers and help bring some insight into the ordeals of life as a college student.
I'll sign off with the most important thing college has helped me realize (so far): Challenge yourself and you'll be pleasantly surprised at what you can accomplish. Thanks for reading!
Abby Egan
When I began attending college, I was convinced my family was going to fall apart without me. My little brother was going to cry himself to sleep every night, my mother was going to go crazy without our nightly chats over tea and my father was going to destroy the television because I wouldn't be there to help him manage the remote. But then I left...and everything was fine.
My family members went about their daily lives as usual. They didn't weep when they walked past my room. They didn't even call me that often – heck, I had trouble getting them to pick up their phones when I called! I rushed home after one month living away at school, acting as if I'd been stranded on an island for years. I walked in the door expecting my mother to fall over in shock and my brother to rush at me as if all his dreams had just come true. Imagine my surprise when my brother merely glanced at me from the couch and said, "What? You weren't gone that long."
At first, I was hurt but then I realized that I didn't get emotional when I saw family pictures on Facebook, nor did I think about them that often because my classes, friends and clubs were keeping me pretty busy. Leaving home for college can be hard on everyone involved but it's not the end of the world: You have a new life to lead away at college – don't miss it because you're wallowing in what you left behind.
If you ARE feeling homesick, don't hesitate to pick up the phone and give your dad/sister/friend/cat a call. Everyone likes to feel as if they're needed and I can guarantee there will be tears when your mom hears you miss her. Plus, vacations and long weekends are never that far around the corner.

Most can agree that high school was not too challenging. I know this because the standard procedure for me was to complete busy work, memorize stuff and regurgitate that information on test day, forgetting the material almost instantaneously. When I got to college, however, I abandoned that method...fast.
As you move through college, the memorization method fades away into REAL learning because college courses introduce you to the material and demand that you get familiar with the information through study and homework. You are then encouraged to make sense the material your own through personalized notes, diagrams, dialogues, etc. Higher-level courses will require application and synthesis, using what you know and applying it to a new situation or idea.
You will always get a million voices of advice but there isn't always a set answer for it all. My response to your concerns about the academic part of college is simple: It all depends. There are plenty of factors that play into the difficulty of a college class including where you attend school, what your major is, who the professor is, what the grading is like and what the pre-requisites are. Here are my personal tips for a success in the classroom:
Before College
When You Get There
College is not just for smart people: It's for people that want and try to learn. I've seen high school valedictorians fall and barely-admitted students rise, the latter of which proves that if you can get admitted, you have what it takes to undergo the academic rigor. Don't let the saying "College is hard, impossible or not for you" prevent you from giving higher education the old college try!
Anthony Guzmán is currently a rising sophomore at Texas A&M University where he studies business management and Spanish. He hopes to use business to create positive change through non-profit organization. He devotes the majority of his time to Catholic ministry and he also enjoys dancing, being with friends and family, and traveling.
In college, you will never be a stranger to professors. In fact, professors can be your greatest allies if you get to know them academically, professionally and socially. All professors are different so it's best to get to know them as individuals and as educators.
The first step? Introduce yourself on the first day of class. Acknowledge them fully so that they'll know that you're willing to learn what they have to offer and always be courteous towards your teachers; if you respect them, they'll give you respect in return – it's a win-win.
All professors differ when it comes to academics because they have different grading techniques. Pay close attention to how your professor(s) grade assignments and exams; it's very likely that they'll explain their grading process to you early on in the semester so be sure to grab a pen and paper and take notes!
In a professional aspect, your professors will always provide the class with a syllabus. Reading and studying a syllabus will help you familiarize yourself with the rules and expectations for the class. If you forget a rule or expectation, then feel free to look back on the syllabus at any time.
Socially, professors will definitely expect communication and feedback from their students so don't be afraid to talk to them, ask them questions if you're struggling to understand something, attend office hours and keep in touch with them via email/phone in case of emergencies. And if you see them outside of class, be sure to say hello!

Remembering Old Hickory (The Whiskey).
Several people I know have recently come into possession of bottles of Old Hickory Bourbon, in one case a 10-year-old believed to have been purchased in 1965.
Old Hickory was a Publicker brand. I believe it was their primary bourbon. Publicker, based in Philadelphia, was one of the big American liquor companies post-Prohibition. The name 'Old Hickory' is a reference to Andrew Jackson, seventh president of the United States.
Many people from the Philadelphia area who are over age 50 can recall the distillery located on Packer and Delaware Ave, right by the Walt Whitman bridge. They say you could smell it as you crossed the river.
Whiskey distilleries smell pretty good, sort of like bakeries.
One of those people is Dave Ziegler, who worked there as a young man and keeps the company's memory alive. He holds court on straightbourbon.com, on the Discussion Board, where his threads about Publicker and Old Hickory dominate the History section. He refers to it as Kinsey Distillery, also sometimes as Continental, but it's all the same company.
Publicker's whiskey maturation facility near Valley Forge was described in company literature in the 1950s as being the largest in the world, with a capacity of one million barrels.
Ziegler believes Old Hickory died in 1981 and I have no reason to doubt him.
Why did Publicker itself die? My sense is that they were mostly a commodity producer, more regional than national, didn't have any really strong brands, and thus couldn't survive the changes that occurred in the industry during the 1970s. Some of their brands, such as Rittenhouse Rye, were sold off and still exist today. Not Old Hickory.
It's also possible they couldn't survive the passing of their dynamic leader, Simon 'Si' Neuman, a son-in-law of company founder Harry Publicker, who ran Publicker during its most successful period.
Neuman, and thus Publicker, is best known today for having started Scotland's Inver House Distillers, which they established in 1964 to provide a steady supply of Scotch whiskey for Publicker to sell in the USA. It later spun off Inver House, which is today a well-respected independent whiskey producer in Scotland.
In Scotland I think "independent" just means, "not owned by Diageo or Pernod." Inver House is owned by Thai Beverage.
Thanks to A. J. Rathbun for the creepy ad.

The more I'm researching this, it seems Continental/Kinsey/Publicker was pretty much Michter's big brother to the east. They met pretty much the same fate around the same time. I've read the threads on Straightbourbon and they have motivated me even more to keep up with Dave, only collecting Michter's items instead of Kinsey items. I want to find some Old Hickory sometime and try it out. I've heard it was excellent whiskey!

I have a seven YO bottle. There is also an eight YO around; never seen the 10 though.
They are sometimes offered on auctions and not very expensive. I tried the seven and it's still very good with a good taste of oak.

As with many distilleries, it got older because of back stock accumulating in their warehouses due to lessening demand. It wasn't originally intended to be that old, but fate intervened, and the result is some oddities that are few and far between.
I've seen this happen with other distilleries, notably Old Overholt in the 1950s, which became older as the years went on due to lack of demand, up to eight years old rather than the four originally intended.

Is it possible to date a bottle of Old Hickory by the US Internal Revenue stamp that is located on the top?
- February 3, 2011 at 4:20 PM
- Chuck Cowdery said...
If there is no date printed on the tax stamp itself then I believe the answer is no, but you might want to check with the TTB.
- February 3, 2011 at 6:02 PM
I can still smell that powerful odor that came from the distillery as I crossed over the Walt Whitman Bridge heading to a Phillie's game in the early 70's.I miss seeing the old sign that lit up during the night.
- August 5, 2011 at 8:19 PM
My grandfather, David "Danny" Kanner, was a Philadelphia printer and helped design the labels for Old Hickory bourbon and Lord Calvert Canadian whiskey. I would love to see photos of any color labels from the 1930s-1950s!

- Eric Wilden said...
Dave, I can remember that smell well, too. As a child, we used to drive over the Walt Whitman Bridge often after visiting cousins in south Jersey. I have such strong memories associated with that smell and the big lit-up sign as we pulled into the toll booths.

NICK PAWSON watched the defending Super Rugby champions resist a late fightback from the Highlanders to clinch a 19-13 win in Brisbane.
A tightly-contested first half (6-3 at half-time in favour of the Reds) yielded elements of desperation from both teams. The Reds were after maximum points, as were the Highlanders as they both went into this match with outside chances of making the play-offs.
For the Highlanders, that dream is now over. But they only have themselves to blame. It was a match when nuances in possession, territorial gain and goal-kicking accuracy would be decisive and in the first half the home side led those stats, if only marginally.
Backs Quade Cooper and Chris F'Sautia both threatened to score if it weren't for over-eagerness and a pulled hamstring respectively. As many expected, the game was reduced to a war of attrition.
Half-time replacements Aaron Smith and Radike Samo promised to provide more of a spectacle, but they were merely thrown into the mire. Further tackle infringements from the visitors helped the Reds stretch their lead to 9-3 with 30 minutes left on the clock.
Finally, sustained pressure and some quick ball from the hosts sent James Slipper over in the corner for the first try of the contest. Converted, the Reds finally looked in control at 16-3. But the Highlanders retaliated with a similarly-constructed try of their own, with All Black loosie Adam Thomson getting the honours.
The Highlanders were back in the hunt after grinding out another try, this time replacement Chris King touching down. The visitors camped on the Reds' tryline in the dying minutes but the hosts did well to stave off a last-minute defeat and get themselves into a play-off spot on the overall log.

She is the first person of African-American descent and the fourth woman to serve in that position.
She was nominated to lead the federal agency by then President-Elect Barack Obama on December 15, 2008. She was confirmed by the Senate on January 22, 2009. As the EPA's administrator, Jackson led a staff of approximately 18,000 professionals working to protect the public health and environment of all Americans.
Read more about 'Lisa P. Jackson'
Born on February 8, 1962 in Philadelphia, Pa., Jackson was adopted weeks after her birth. She grew up in the Ninth Ward of New Orleans, La., a predominantly African-American middle-class neighborhood. In 1979 she graduated as valedictorian from Saint Mary's Dominican High School in New Orleans. Jackson graduated summa cum laude in 1983 from Tulane University's School of Chemical Engineering in New Orleans. She attended on a scholarship from the Shell Oil Company. Subsequently, she earned a master's degree in chemical engineering from Princeton University in 1986 where she says her interest in using her engineering skills to address and prevent pollution was invigorated.
She spent her first year-and-a-half out of graduate school working at Clean Sites, a nonprofit organization that brokered deals to speed the cleanup of hazardous waste sites. But she saw that EPA was the real powerhouse in driving these cleanups. Jackson began her career with the EPA as a staff-level engineer at its headquarters in Washington D.C. Later she moved to its regional office in New York City. During her tenure at the EPA, Jackson worked for the Superfund site remediation program, developing numerous hazardous waste cleanup regulations, overseeing hazardous waste cleanup projects throughout central New Jersey, and directing multimillion-dollar cleanup operations. She later served as deputy director and acting director of the region's enforcement division.
After serving in the EPA for 16 years, Jackson joined the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) in March 2002. She worked as assistant commissioner of compliance and enforcement for land use management during 2005, before becoming commissioner in 2006. Jackson headed numerous programs, including land use regulation, water supply, geological survey, water monitoring and standards, and watershed management. Under her leadership, the state Department of Environmental Protection developed regulatory standards for implementing the landmark Highlands Water Protection and Planning Act.
She lead a staff of 2,990 professionals working to protect, sustain and enhance New Jersey's water, air and land, and preserving its wealth of natural and historic resources. In addition to overseeing environmental programs, Jackson oversaw state parks and beaches, fish and wildlife programs and historic preservation. The New Jersey Conference of Mayors named Jackson the 2007 Cabinet Member of the Year. In December 2008 she took over as Chief of Staff for then Gov. Jon Corzine.
At the EPA, Jackson put regulating dangerous emissions at the top of her priority list. In April 2009, she established findings that carbon dioxide and five other greenhouse gases were harmful and contributed to global warming. In December 2009 at the climate-change talks in Copenhagen, she made the official announcement and opened the door for the EPA to regulate those gases, which come from cars, trucks and factories. It could presage a national cap-and-trade system for greenhouse-gas emissions. Jackson also played a role in President Obama's May 2009 announcement of the first-ever national emissions limit for vehicles.
In early 2010, Rolling Stone magazine called Jackson the EPA's "most progressive chief ever-and one of the most powerful members of Obama's Cabinet." Newsweek magazine named her among the ten most important people in 2010.
As of June 2010, Jackson lived in East Windsor, N.J. She is married to Kenny Jackson and is the mother of their two sons, Marcus and Brian. She is an avid cook; her signature dish — gumbo — is a tribute to her Louisiana roots. Jackson is renowned for her annual Mardi Gras party, which she has not thrown since Hurricane Katrina devastated her hometown in 2005.

Top 3 Tips for Open Season
Saturday - 11/9/2013, 12:18pm EST
Today's the day: Open Season, the time when federal employees and retirees can comb through more than 250 health insurance plans on the Federal Employees Health Benefits (FEHB) Program to choose or change coverage, kicks off today.
It runs through Dec. 9.
"The federal government 50 years ago made a wise decision ... to allow federal employees not just a choice of one plan, like traditionally large employers do — the HR people pick the plan, everybody has to take it or leave it — but to offer a wide choice of plans," said Walt Francis, health insurance expert and author of "Consumers' Checkbook Guide to Health Plans for Federal Employees," in a recent interview on FEDTalk.
Despite the wide array of choices — or maybe because of it — only about 5 percent of federal employees actually change plans during Open Season.
But doing so could save you real money, according to the experts.
"There are lots of federal employees who could save $2,000 or more next year," Francis said. "Think about this — we're in, what, the third year without a raise? How about giving yourself a $2,000 pay raise by making a wise plan-choice decision."
Below, find some key pieces of information for the current Open Season and links to more information.
What's new this year?
The two main Blue Cross Blue Shield plans contain more than half the total FEHB participant enrollment, Francis said. Nevertheless, there are a plethora of other plans competing for business, and the Office of Personnel Management, which manages the FEHB program and the Open Season period, is constantly on the hunt to add new plans.
"OPM works hard to try to bring in new plans," in part to to increase competition and offer enrollees more coverage options, Francis said.
New this year are four plans, all of them health-maintenance organizations (HMOs).
- Humana Health Benefit Plan of Louisiana, Inc. (available in parts of
- Total Health Care USA, Inc. (available in parts of Michigan);
- Scott & White Health Plan (available in Texas);
- HealthKeepers, Inc. (available in parts of Virginia including Fairfax, Loudoun and Prince William counties).
Top 3 Open Season Tips
Tammy Flanagan
1. Look at your 2014 plan brochure to see what is changing for 2014.
2. Use one or more of the Plan Information resources that are available to help you evaluate and select a health plan for 2014.
3. Don't forget about your other valuable federal benefits that are also available including FSAFEDS, FEDVIP, and FLTCIP.
OPM has also added four new carriers to the Federal Employee Dental and Vision Insurance Program, including three new dental plans and an additional vision plan.
FEP Blue Dental, Delta Dental and Dominion Dental have been added to the roster of dental carriers and Aetna has been added to the vision options.
Employees can check Benefeds.com to compare FEDVIP plans.
Tammy Flanagan, senior benefits director at the National Institute of Transition Planning, said the biggest trend she's seeing among plans for 2014 is increasing interest in high-deductible and consumer-driven plans.
"The high deductible plans allow employees and retirees to set up health care savings accounts that provide tax incentives in the form of tax-free contributions that roll over from one year to the next and premium rebates into these accounts that can be used to meet the deductible and pay medical out of pocket expenses," she said.
The high-deductible plans are becoming increasingly popular with mid-career and pre-retirement employees, Flanagan said.
How much are premiums going up?
Employees can expect to pay an average of 4.4 percent more in premiums next year.
OPM announced last month the total combined cost of premiums was going up an average of 3.7 percent, but that includes the increase in how much the government will contribute to premiums — the government picks up about 75 percent of the cost of insurance premiums.
Premiums will vary across individual plans.
Premiums for some of the more expensive plans, such as MHBP Standard Option (which used to be called the Mailhandlers Benefit Plan) and the Rural Carrier Benefit Plan, are actually going down slightly but are still more expensive than Blue Cross Blue Shield, Flanagan said.
Enrollees in the SAMBA High Option will see a hefty hike in premiums — up to more than $275 a month for self-only and more than $703 a month for family coverage. But premiums for the more popular SAMBA Standard Option Plan remain locked in at this year's levels.
Why the big increase?
Top 3 Open Season Tips
Ed Zurndorfer
1. When choosing a Federal Employees Health Benefits Program (FEHBP) health insurance plan for 2014, do not focus solely on premium cost.
2. Realize that no FEHBP plan pays for everything and employees will have to pay something out-of-pocket.
3. Before enrolling in a separate dental or vision insurance plan offered through the Federal Employees Dental and Vision Insurance Program (FEDVIP), find out if their FEHBP plan offers dental and vision benefits that meets their needs.
"The high option SAMBA plan has quite a few enrollees who retired from federal service many years ago before Medicare was available to federal employees and this is most likely what caused the big increase for these older retirees," Flanagan said. If you have loved ones who might be in their later years ... switching to the standard option or one of the other fee-for-service plans could save them hundreds of dollars in premium costs next year"
Many of the HMOs will also see sizable premium increases, including Aetna Whole Health and CareFirst BlueChoice, Kaiser High Option, all HMOs.
But experts say one of the biggest pieces of advice is don't only look at the premiums.
Ed Zurndorfer, registered employee benefits consultant, said that employees should consider a host of other factors, including total coverage, access to doctors and hospitals, as well as plan limitations.
"Realize that no FEHBP plan pays for everything and employees will have to pay something out-of-pocket," Zurndorfer said.
Where can I turn for more information?
OPM has published an exhaustive guide to 2014 federal benefits. The guide includes details and cost breakdowns on each of the FEHBP and FEDVIP plans as well as the results of satisfaction surveys with the plans.
The Consumers' Checkbook Guide to Federal Health Plans is considered the Bible of FEHBP. Online access to the guide is $9.95, although many agencies provide free access to their employees.
Walt Francis, the key author of the guide, will be a guest on the "For Your Benefit" radio program Monday at 10 a.m. as well as Senior Correspondent Mike Causey's "Your Turn" program Wednesday at 10 a.m.
Rep. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.), in conjunction with the Maryland Federation of the National Active and Retired Federal Employees Association, will host three seminars in November on health benefits to aid federal employee constituents during Open Season. Click here for more information.

Licensing Dangerous Wild Animals
The Dangerous Wild Animals Act 1976 aims to ensure that where private individuals keep dangerous wild animals they do so in circumstances which create no risk to the public and which safeguard the welfare of the animals. Animals which are classified as dangerous wild animals are identified in an accompanying schedule to the Act.
In addition to powers of inspection, the Act also gives the Council powers to seize any animal being kept on premises which are unlicensed. Zoos, pet shops and circuses are exempt from the provisions of the Act as these premises are subject to separate licensing requirements.
An annual inspection takes place upon renewal of the licence by the City's Senior Animal Welfare Officer. An inspection is also required by a veterinary surgeon.
You can apply for your Dangerous Wild Animal Licence online and pay by credit/debit card using the Dangerous Wild Animal Licence Online Form.
Once your application has been received you will be sent a payment reference number in order to pay for your application online by credit/debit card. To go directly to the payment page select the Licensing Online Payment Form

Comments about Hayes Bleed Kit:
The Hayes Bleed Kit is definitely not worth the extra money. You would be better off to get a master cylinder bleed screw and just the needed dot 4 fluid.
The kit comes with directions and a bunch of small pieces, but the directions are for the Hayes mag brakes and not for anything in the new Stroker line of brakes. Find the directions using a youtube video from Hayes.
Doing the actual bleed wasn't to hard, but the tube that Hayes includes gets super slippery once brake fluid goes through it making slip off easily which makes a mess.
Also, this kit doesn't include a catch contain and Hayes just assumes you will/can make your own.
I would save my money and make/acquire parts to make my own bleed kit instead of what Hayes calls a kit.
Best Uses
Comments about Hayes Bleed Kit:
This is an affordable kit, if you have read some reviews they probably say to buy the master kit. I will agree with that. This kit is great for getting started and gives you the bleed adapters needed for just about all Hayes brakes. However the bleed bottle in the kit is too small. Very hard to keep pressure going through the system with such a low volume bottle. I gave it 3 stars only because it did come with a majority of the adapters I can put to use immediately. I'd recommend researching the internet on brake bleeding and see if there are better alternatives out there. Again this is not a bad kit, just there are better choices out there.
Comments about Hayes Bleed Kit:
Skip this kit and purchase the Pro Bleed Kit. Quality is MUCH better and is a tighter fit. Makes bleeding a faster and cleaner process.
Comments about Hayes Bleed Kit:
very easy to use i 15 so that say alot get the job done used it over forty times nothing has brroke yet
Comments about Hayes Bleed Kit:
The cap broke on me- the cap was screwed on snug but not tight! as i was squeezing and releasing the bottle i was getting some seepage and noticed that the cap has broken.....I used a syringe from my dentist to finish the job!!
Comments about Hayes Bleed Kit:
pretty good, except for the time between when i was trying to bleed it and hadn't cut the top of the cap off
Comments about Hayes Bleed Kit:
well i had a heck of a time when the piston got stuck crooked but after i tried that i jamed a peice of cardboard between em so they wouldnt come out all the way after i tried it like that it worked better than my other one done in a bike shop
