In Samoa, an innovative project idea is turning an environmental challenge into an energy asset. Samoa will turn the invasive Merremia vine, other invasive weeds and green agricultural waste into renewable energy in the form of clean biogas.
Polluting is expensive
Like many Pacific Island states, Samoa is heavily dependent on fossil fuel for power generation; about 69 percent of the national energy production comes from diesel-fueled generators. This is an expensive solution for island countries that pay high prices to ship fuel to local shores. In addition, fossil fuel-based energy is highly polluting, and CO2 emissions contributes to climate change that islands states such as Samoa are vulnerable to; increased extreme weather and rising sea levels. This is why Samoa is looking for sustainable energy solutions that are affordable to its population, and with low environmental footprint and greenhouse gas emissions.
The Merremia vine
Samoa is currently facing the rapid spread of invasive Merrimia vine, a vine that has so far killed more than 60 percent of Samoa's forests. But the vine, as biomass, can potentially also be fuel for bioenergy. Samoa will now develop biogas energy systems fuelled by the vine and other green waste. Such waste is currently disposed of by burning. The goal is to demonstrate the viability of biogas solutions on the island, while at the same time stopping the spread of the invasive vine.
Sala Sagato, assistant chief executive officer of the Renewable Energy Division for the Ministry of Natural Resource and Environment in Samoa has high expectations of the Merremia biogas project.
"Being able to offer biogas solutions for households and private sector here in Samoa is a way to provide people with clean and affordable energy solutions that at the same time takes care of the problem of the invasive Merremia vine. The project will also offer alternative waste management, reduce burning of green waste and provide organic fertilizer for the agricultural sector."
The biogas project has emerged from the regional project called PIGGAREP – Pacific Island Greenhouse Gas Abatement through Renewable Energy Project. The project is funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF), with United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) as implementing agency and the Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP) as implementing partner. The project covers eleven Pacific island countries and has provided feasibility studies, training, awareness and renewable energy projects across the Pacific since 2008.
As a follow up of PIGGAREP, Denmark is funding more renewable energy projects in the Pacific through the Small Island Developing States "SIDS DOCK" program, which aims to transform SIDS energy sectors into catalysts for sustainable, economic development. On project benefitting from Danish funding is Samoa's biogas project.
Biogas fuelling the 2014-SIDS conference
Biogas technology is well known, and there are already millions of biogas plants in operation throughout the world. Whereas using the gas for direct combustion in household stoves or gas lamps is common, producing electricity from biogas is still relatively rare in most developing countries, particularly in small island developing states.
Samoa will install two biogas systems, one on the island's public golf course, and one in the village of Piu, about an hour from Samoa's capital Apia. The systems will demonstrate the value of biogas as alternative clean fuel for production of electricity and transport. The two biogas systems are expected to be operational for the upcoming SIDS-conference taking place in Samoa September 1-4, 2014. Biogas will fuel the production of electricity to charge the vehicles that will be used in the SIDS venue and the golf course. The project will also gather valuable data on operation and management of biogas based power generation and will improve understanding and knowledge of management and operation of biogas energy systems in the Samoan context.

Bread for the Journey: A Daybook of Wisdom and Faith
Bread for the Journey: A Daybook of Wisdom and Faith (Paperback)
When beloved author Henri Nouwen set out to record this daybook of totally new reflections, he suddenly found himself on "a true spiritual adventure." For in these 366 original, interlocking morsels of daily wisdom, Nouwen provides both sustenance and a trail for us to follow, as he unveils, to his own surprise, his personal map of faith. From the delicate interplay of human experience to the surrender to Christ and the embrace of Christian community, that journey of Christian spirituality is explored and celebrated here in each eloquent, thought–provoking passage,
"The table is one of the most intimate places in our lives. It is there that we give ourselves to one another. When we say, 'Take some more, let me serve you another plate, let me pour you another glass, don't be shy, enjoy it,' we say a lot more than our words express. We invite our friends to become part of our lives. We want them to be nurtured by the same food and drink that nurture us. We desire communion.... Every breakfast, lunch, or dinner can become a time of growing communion with one another."
Intimately personal and inspiring, Bread for the Journey is a daily feast of fresh insight into the challenges and deep joys of a life lived in close communion with God. Nouwen is a wise, loving companion who invites us along as he finds joy in the community of loss, true freedom in forgiveness of others, and hope in surprising places. Each daily meditation is a stepping–stone along a path of private discovery, offering Nouwen's seasoned yet fresh ideas on kindness, love, suffering, and prayer, the Church as God's people, and the importance of Jesus in one's life–reflecting, as a whole, Nouwen's own 'personal creed.' Bread for the Journey brims with daily nourishment and guidance for devoted followers and new friends alike –– food for thought on a yearlong journey of discovery and faith.
About the Author
Henri J. M. Nouwen (1932-1996) is the author of Reaching Out, The Wounded Healer, Making All Things New, and many other spiritual classics. He taught psychology and pastoral theology at Notre Dame, Yale, and Harvard universities before becoming senior pastor of L'Arche Daybreak in Toronto, Canada, a community where men and women with intellectual disabilities and their assistants create a home for one another.

Suspended head coach John Mitchell believes he still has something to offer to the Lions.
Mitchell was suspended in June after complaints from players about his strict management ways. It's believed that the Kiwi coach has been found not guilty, with chairman Peter Bam making a final call on proceedings.
During Mitchell's absence, forwards coach Johann Ackermannn took charge of the team on an interim basis and led the Lions to the Currie Cup semi-finals. Keo.co.za has it on good authority that Ackermann is the favourite candidate to take over the post permanently.
However, Mitchell confirmed in a press release that he wants his position back at the Johannesburg union.
'I want my head coach position back at the Lions,' read the statement. 'There is some unfinished business to do with the Lions. Furthermore, I am determined that my future will be in South Africa.'
Mitchell's representatives at The Fordham Company also hoped that the Lions will be respond quickly to their client's wishes to continue as head coach.
'Even though John has been cleared of these particular allegations, the GLRU, through its lawyers, is not prepared to release details to John or his lawyers,' said the statement. 'That's pretty amazing considering the damage that this action taken by the GLRU has done to John's reputation and brand.
'Furthermore, the GLRU's lawyers have advised John's lawyers that they are not prepared to release the findings and recommendations pertaining to the remaining nine charges brought against John unless John agrees to sign a confidentiality undertaking. One would have to question why this information is being withheld.'
In reply, the Lions have said in a statement: 'In terms of the independent chairperson's findings and recommendations, the GLRU will engage John in discussions which by the nature of the employment relationship are private and confidential and cannot be disclosed.'

We are devastated to report that a three-month-old Pit Bull puppy named Joey was thrown from a car in Brentwood, Long Island, on Saturday. A witness found the tiny 10-pound pup in a plastic bag near the Sagtikos State Parkway, covered in fleas and crying out for help. Joey suffered three broken vertebrae in his neck and is recovering at the Veterinary Medical Center of Long Island.
The ASPCA is offering a reward of $15,000 for information leading to an arrest and conviction in this case. This reward is in addition to a $5,000 reward offered by the Suffolk County SPCA. We are also providing a $10,000 grant to the Veterinary Medical Center to offset some of the costs of treating and caring for Joey.
"We were both outraged and saddened to hear about this disturbing case of violent abuse, and the callousness that was demonstrated by those responsible," says Matt Bershadker, Senior Vice President of the ASPCA's Anti-Cruelty Group. "While our ultimate hope is that these types of heinous acts never occur, this is a message that cruelty toward animals will not be tolerated. We are pleased to be in a position to help those who are helping Joey."
If you have information related to Joey's case, please contact the Suffolk County SPCA by calling (631) 382-7722.
Animal cruelty is a crime in every state—if you see something, call 911. Please join our battle against animal cruelty today!
I wish there was a "Dexter" out there who brought justice to animal abusers. I think there should be an episode (or season!) of Dexter where animal abusers are his targets!
Please, I hope this all over the news. Why?
How can a human being been so heartless and cruel. Just throws the puppy out like a piece of trash. I ask what kind of raising did this this person have. How sad for them and more for so the puppy who has no voice or choice.
Anyone who can look at that adorable puppy face and not fall in love is not human. It just puts my stomach in a knot and tears in my eyes thinking about what happened to that precious little gift from God.
I hope Joey recovers. I read through some of the other comments. Whoever did this to Joey is cruel, and I believe such a person is cruel to many others in his life. I hope he is caught soon, and I hope the laws in your area have serious consequences for such an abuser.
I hope Joey recovers. I read through some of the other comments. Whoever did this to Joey is cruel, and I believe such a person is cruel to many others in his life. I hope he is caught soon, and I hope the laws in your area have serious consequences for such an abuser.
Sending happy thoughts to you Joey! We will find whoever did this to you. Too bad we can't do it to them!
That made me angry and made me cry - I would love to give you a hug Joey - maybe somebody could hug you for me- I send you my love and prayers little guy that your life will be so filled with love and tenderness that this nightmare will fade away to nothing.
I am praying for your fast recovery and I hope they get the person/persons responsible for hurting you. I see you lying there and it breaks my heart. Get better soon my dear Joey.

Example of a Logo Sign (15'-0" x 10'-0")
The Logo Sign Program is intended to provide the traveling public with business identification and directional information for essential motorist services. Logo signs are located prior to each interchange ramp on rural interstate highways where motorist services are provided. There are five different types of Logo signs that direct the motorist to a specific type of service. Those five types include GAS, FOOD, LODGING, CAMPING, and ATTRACTIONS. On each panel, there is space for six individual business logos to alert the traveling public to the available services that are located at each interchange.
Located along the off-ramps at each interchange are smaller signs that indicate the direction and distance to each business from the exit ramp. This allows the motorist to quickly and easily locate important services such as gas stations, restaurants, lodging facilities, and campgrounds.

Notably, none of these figures are particularly close to the Clintons, and the choice of Kennedy in particular—the scion of a different dynasty—may help damp down speculation that Clinton is in the running.—Ben Smith's blog at Politico.com, June 04, 2008.
2. damp down
a. to reduce the intensity of (someone's emotions or reactions): they attempted to damp down protests
b. to reduce the flow of air to (a fire) to make it burn more slowly [Middle Low German: steam] —The Free Dictionary http://www.thefreedictionary.com/damp+down
Areopagitica, 'This was it which had dampt the glory of Italian wits.' The original sense of the verb 'to damp' was to suffocate, which explains the phrase 'to damp one's spirits' (cf. 'doleful dumps'). It survives in 'fire-damp' and 'choke-damp,' and the phrase to 'damp down a furnace,' i. e. to exclude the air from it.—from an annotation to "Paradise Lost" by The Rev. H. C. Beeching, 1887.

Both of these expressions are valid, and both relate to fire. You can damp a fire with water or with a damper. You can tamp a fire with a tamper. It probably would be impossible to distinguish an eggcornish tamp>damp, because the distinction is too subtle, and because the speaker would deny making a mistake.
The two words, damp and tamp, I believe, really are the same word if you go back into history. e.g. This and Dis/That and Dat, but not e.g. Tome and Dome, or ??? This T and D thing goes way back: Deus and Theus (both Latin) and Zeus (Greek). What would you say about Tits and Ditz? You may have to go into Yiddish etymology to find this answer.
I just ran across another example of this one, but going the other way. It uses 'tamp' where I would have used 'damp'. I vote eggcorn.
By causing male rats to make more testosterone, Toxoplasma may do more than spread itself to other rats. Testosterone also tamps down fear.
http://thechronicleherald.ca/science/23 … n-teach-us
The citation you give—couldn't the person could have meant "tamp down?"
There is an eggcorn in the damp >> tamp direction, however. We can see this in the phrase , The user starts with "dampen," an alternate form of "damp," and transforms it into "tampen." "Tamp" has no alternate "-en" form.
Yes, they might have. But it would be odd in the circumstances. Hormones don't tamp down fear, they damp it down. Things to tamp down: soil, tobacco, ground coffee, gunpowder. Things to damp down: fear, fire, excitement, speculation. If they had meant 'tamp down', it would be at a minimum a flounder, but I still vote eggcorn.

Sloppy offense because everyone is still new and without Gordon, who will get a lot of looks. We are settling for a lot of shots. We need to attack the rim more and get to the line. Gordon and Rivers can do that.
Is anyone else extremely worried about the direction of this offense.i know we were missing Anderson,Gordon for the rockets game,but for a lot of the game it felt like the players didn't know what they were meant to do or where they were meant to be.it was a very painful first quarter to watch.what are ur opinions?
Sloppy offense because everyone is still new and without Gordon, who will get a lot of looks. We are settling for a lot of shots. We need to attack the rim more and get to the line. Gordon and Rivers can do that.
Formally known as WhoDatMan504
We are a very young team with our only proven scorer not playing. There will be bumps and bruises along the way. We are gonna struggle a lot on offense this year...but hopefully we will improve as the season goes on and with gordons return.
Anytime Lopez and Thomas/Aminu are on the floor together I am very worried.
I'll probably be bashed for saying this, but I think it might be better for the Hornets long term future if they are bad again this year to get another high draft pick to put next to Davis
We're missing Gordon. Plain and simple. That and it's just preseason. The year the Lions went 0-16, they went 4-0 in preseason.
"Its important to us to bring in good people, people who can fit in the locker room and people you want to root and cheer for. People that want to win. Were trying to build for the long haul. -Dell Demps
My Anthony Davis website: http://thebrow.uphero.com/
Yeah. I'm not even worrying about it. Davis is trying to find his niche on offense. Anderson is already getting loads of looks and knocking them down. Mason can shoot. Darius Miller can shoot. X can get to the line at least. And even if we miss, Lopez, Anderson, and Davis can glass eat.
Add in Gordon who can penetrate the lane like nobodies business and will make pick and rolls with Davis deadly?
Yeah. Ease up, player. Our offense won't be on the level with the Spurs, but it's better than last year.
Now I do voice overs. Finally!
Click here for my first voice demo!
If we stink it up and get another high pick so be it. But if the T-word starts getting uttered I'm going to have to start breaking all of the bones.
Problem is that until Rivers and Davis develop Gordon is basically the entire offense.
"Hornets means nothing." - Tom Benson
Thomas the Tank Engine.
"I'm not going to allow my putative owner to answer that question, this is an NBA related press conference. Paul Tagliabue and Roger Goodell have collectively sung their praises of Tom and if uh ESPN has a problem with that tell Mr. Skipper to call me at my office."
I suspect that Rivers will eventually just become the Hornets 6th man
The team's problem will be solved when Gordon comes back. As long as Gordon's healthy, offense shouldn't be too much of a problem. The problem I see right now is a lack of a go-to option. Everyone has been hesitant and unsure of their roles up to this point. No one has really stepped up and took control of the offense. We look like a team who has yet to figure it out. That's was expected and we are seeing it early on.
We are going to be similar to the Bulls. We will more than likely rely on an elite offensive weapon to open things up for the rest of the team. We will not have a true post option and will rely on strong rebounding and plenty of put backs. This team will rely heavily on defense early on.
I expect the team to struggle early on due to the lack of chemistry. We'll make up for it with effort and hustle. Players will emerge as the season wears on and guys like Davis, Rivers, Miller, and Roberts should be used to the NBA's speed and physicality. I think the team will hit their strides after the all-star break.
In all of the excitement, we forget how under developed this team is. We are beginning to realize that there will be a transition period with all the new players we've acquired in the offseason. The lack of chemistry and defined roles for most of the players on the team has really stuck out so far in the preseason. This team is a work in progress.
Hornets preseason game is televised and St. Aug's game is televised tonight... I'm happy. And excited. IDK if Da Throne follows the team, but it's on CST at 9:30
With purple and pinstripes from days gone by, I trumpet Hugo's name to the NOLA sky. When rebranders and posers abuse their might, beware my power, TEAL LANTERN'S LIGHT!

Given how even Ray Allen was able to back him down, probably don't want him doing a lot of time guarding anyone but PGs anyway.
Showed that quickness of his though when he guarded D Wade a few times.

Ah, there it is, right on schedule. I'd in turn ask you, andonstop, why you respond so warmly to the deity's threat of "Either love, worship and serve me, or I will deep fry your ass for all eternity."
When you speak of annihilation, you seem to forget that someone must DO the annihilating. In this case it's—surprise!—the one said to be all-loving and all-forgiving. The very one who, in the first place, created the place he sends those he has doomed, and who appointed its overseer. Doesn't that just make your head explode?
[quote author="Ted"]I think we are striving for sonship (daughtership), and have been provided the model for achieving it.
I'm sorry that your own very real human parents apparently didn't satisfy this hunger in you. But you'd also have to show that the supernatural parent provides a more admirable lesson plan for life than what most of our own human parents and elders can, at least in civilized societies. The god-construct of the Bible fails miserably when stacked up against my own mum (who was a closet atheist during her Catholic marriage), so I have no need to 'strive' for an association with the biblical deities, who were not as moral as my mother. A comprehensive read-through of the Bible (at least as much as one can stomach) is all you really need to realize that you don't want a slavery-loving, woman-hating, virgin-raping, incest-favoring, sex-fearing, war-mongering, worship-craving, bloodthirsty egomaniac as their daddy. Much less for an eternity.
If you want to extract a few positive quotes from your book, all of which were already long established in human societies, then so be it—that is obviously preferable to your being true to the entire text. But be honest with yourself about the fact that you're doing exactly that—you're editing the word of God in order to make it meet your own higher standard of behavior. If you do not condone slavery, treat women as property, feel shame over your sexual nature, practice ritual animal sacrifice, or murder masses of people because they don't worship you, then you are automatically a better person than the biblical deity(ies). Surely you must realize that no society could follow the WHOLE Bible word-for-word without tremendously uncivilized behaviors resulting.

Pacific Northwest Campus
Vancouver, WA
The Pacific Northwest Campus (PNWC) of Golden Gate Seminary is located in Vancouver, Washington,on the border of Oregon. Our presence in the midst of two of the most unchurched states in America is strategic for the expansion of the kingdom of God. Students can take advantage of ministry opportunities in hundreds of local churches throughout the region to gain valuable practical experience while earning a degree.
The campus, established in 1980 as the third regional campus through a model partnership with the Northwest Baptist Convention, is easily accessible from I-5 and is adjacent to I-205.
The majority of our students are already engaged in ministry as pastors, associate pastors, youth pastors, and in other roles. The relative smallness of our campus promotes closeness among the students and relational accessibility with the faculty. Our faculty is ably augmented by devoted adjuncts who are productive practitioners of ministry in our region.
Faculty Directory
Staff Directory
Like all of Golden Gate's campuses, the Pacific Northwest Campus is designed to be accessible to students already involved in ministry where they live, without having to put ministry on hold in order to pursue theological training. Most of the classes are scheduled on either Monday or Tuesday, while others have an "intensive" schedule of two or three weekends. This scheduling enables students to commute from outlying areas, take classes efficiently, and return to family and ministry.

Miami Hockey Postgame
Miami vs. Michigan State
Saturday, November 17, 2012
Steve Cady Arena - Oxford, Ohio
- Senior forward Curtis McKenzie netted a goal at the 12:02 mark of the first period. McKenzie's goal was his third of the season and represented his sixth point of the season. Freshman forward Riley Barber and sophomore forward Austin Czarnik were credited with the assists on the goal. Miami's first line of McKenzie, Czarnik and Barber now account for 14 of Miami's 34 goals (41.2%) and 35 of the RedHawks' 85 points (41.2%).
- Freshman goaltender Jay Williams recorded his first career shutout in Saturday night's 2-0 victory over Michigan State. The RedHawks allowed a season-low 13 shots on goal, seven less than the 20 allowed to Northern Michigan Nov. 9, all 13 of which were batted away by Williams. The shutout was the second of the season for Miami, with fellow freshman goaltender Ryan McKay recording the other one against Colgate in the season opener Oct. 12.
- Sophomore forward Alex Wideman continued his hot streak when he netted the RedHawks second goal during the third period. Wideman has scored a goal in the past three games, a career-long goal-scoring streak, and has four goals in just six games this season (missing six to illness). In addition to his regulation goals, Wideman netted the shootout winners against both Northern Michigan (Nov. 11) and Michigan State (Nov. 16).
- Freshman defenseman Taylor Richart tallied his first collegiate point with his assist on Wideman's third-period goal.
- With his assist on McKenzie's first-period goal, Riley Barber tallied his 10th assist and 15th point of the season, both of which are team highs. Barber leads all NCAA freshmen and all CCHA players with his 15 points and he now has a point in nine of 12 games this year.
- With the victory over Michigan State, Miami improved to 5-0-1 in Saturday contests this season. The RedHawks are also now 6-0-1 in their last seven meetings with the Spartans.
- The victory was Miami's first this year when scoring less than three goals. The RedHawks are 6-0-0 when scoring at least three and improved to 1-2-2 when scoring less than three.
- Miami continued its strong play at home this year, improving to 5-0-3 at Steve Cady Arena, compared to 2-2-0 away from Oxford. Miami has outscored its competition at home, 24-11, compared to being outscored, 12-10, on the road.
- Miami does not play next weekend, but returns to the ice Friday, Nov. 30 with the start of a two-game series on the road against Alaska. The RedHawks return to Steve Cady Arena for the last time in the 2012 calendar year when they take on Lake Superior State Dec. 7-8.

Duffy was a professional lumberjack athlete, and he competed in lumberjack shows to put himself through law school.[2]
Based on analysis of multiple outside rankings, Duffy is an average Republican member of Congress, meaning he will vote with the Republican Party on the majority of bills.
After earning his J.D., Duffy went into private practice and soon became District Attorney of Ashland County, WI.[2]
Below is an abbreviated outline of Duffy's professional and political career:[2]
- 2011-Present: U.S. House of Representatives

Legislative actions
113th Congress
The second session of the 113th Congress enacted into law 224 out of the 3215 introduced bills (7 percent). Comparatively, the 112th Congress had 4.2 percent of introduced bills enacted into law in the second session.[6] For more information pertaining to Duffy's voting record in the 113th Congress, please see the below sections.[7]
National security
Duffy voted for HR 1960 - the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014. The bill passed the House on June 14, 2013, with a vote of 315 - 108. Both parties were somewhat divided on the vote.[8]
DHS Appropriations
Duffy voted for HR 2217 - the DHS Appropriations Act (2014) Act of 2014. The bill passed the House on June 6, 2013, with a vote of 245 - 182 that was largely along party lines.[9]
Keystone Pipeline Amendment
Duffy voted against House Amendment 69, which would have amended HR 3 to "require that the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, in consultation with the Department of Homeland Security, conduct a study of the vulnerabilities of the Keystone XL pipeline to a terrorist attack and certify that necessary protections have been put in place." The amendment failed on May 22, 2013, with a vote of 176 - 239 and was largely along party lines.[10]
Duffy voted for HR 624 - the CISPA (2013). The bill passed the House on April 18, 2013, with a vote of 288 - 127. The bill would allow federal intelligence agencies to share cybersecurity intelligence and information with private entities and utilities. The bill was largely supported by Republicans, but divided the Democratic Party.[11]
Farm bill
On January 29, 2014, the U.S. House approved the Federal Agriculture Reform and Risk Management Act of 2013, H.R. 2642, also known as the Farm Bill.[12] The bill passed by a vote of 251-166. The nearly 1,000-page bill reformed and continued various programs of the Department of Agriculture through 2018. The $1 trillion bill expanded crop insurance for farmers by $7 billion over the next decade and created new subsidies for rice and peanut growers that would kick in when prices drop.[13][14] However, cuts to the food stamp program cut an average of $90 per month for 1.7 million people in 15 states.[14] Duffy voted with 161 other Republican representatives in favor of the bill.
2014 Budget
On January 15, 2014, the Republican-run House approved H.R. 3547, a $1.1 trillion spending bill to fund the government through September 30, 2014.[15][16] The House voted 359-67 for the 1,582-page bill, with 64 Republicans and three Democrats voting against the bill.[16] The omnibus package included 12 annual spending bills to fund federal operations.[17] It increased the paychecks of federal workers and military personnel by 1 percent, increased Head Start funding for early childhood education by $1 billion, reduced funding to the Internal Revenue Service and the Environmental Protection Agency, and protected the Affordable Care Act from any drastic cuts. Duffy voted with the majority of the Republican party in favor of the bill.[15]
Government shutdown
- See also: United States budget debate, 2013
On September 30, 2013, the House passed a final stopgap spending bill before the shutdown went into effect. The bill included a one-year delay of the Affordable Care Act's individual mandate and would have also stripped the bill of federal subsidies for congressional members and staff. It passed through the House with a vote of 228-201.[18] At 1 a.m. on October 1, 2013, one hour after the shutdown officially began, the House voted to move forward with going to a conference. In short order, Sen. Harry Reid rejected the call to conference.[19] Duffy voted to approve the stopgap spending bill that would have delayed the individual mandate.[20]
The shutdown finally ended on October 16, 2013, when the House took a vote on HR 2775 after it was approved by the Senate. The bill to reopen the government lifted the $16.7 trillion debt limit and funded the government through January 15, 2014. Federal employees also received retroactive pay for the shutdown period. The only concession made by Senate Democrats was to require income verification for Obamacare subsidies.[21] The House passed the legislation shortly after the Senate, by a vote of 285-144, with all 144 votes against the legislation coming from Republican members. Duffy voted against HR 2775.[22]
Morton Memos Prohibition
Duffy voted for House Amendment 136 - Prohibits the Enforcement of the Immigration Executive Order. The amendment was adopted by the House on June 6, 2013, with a vote of 224 - 201. The purpose of the amendment as stated on the official text is to "prohibit the use of funds to finalize, implement, administer, or enforce the Morton Memos." These memos would have granted administrative amnesty to certain illegal aliens residing in the United States.[23] The vote largely followed party lines.[24]
Healthcare Reform Rules
Duffy voted for House Amendment 450 - Requires Congressional Approval for Any Rules Under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The amendment was adopted by the House on August 2, 2013, with a vote of 227-185. The amendment requires that all changes to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act be approved by Congress before taking effect. The vote was largely along party lines.[25]
Social issues
Duffy voted for HR 1797 - Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act. The resolution passed the House on June 18, 2013, with a vote of 228 - 196 that largely followed party lines. The purpose of the bill is to ban abortions that would take place 20 or more weeks after fertilization.[26]
Previous congressional sessions
Fiscal Cliff
Duffy voted against the fiscal cliff compromise bill, which made permanent most of the Bush tax cuts originally passed in 2001 and 2003 while also raising tax rates on the highest income levels. He was 1 of 151 Republicans that voted against the bill. The bill was passed in the House by a 257 - 167 vote on January 1, 2013.[27]
Criticism of Ted Cruz
Duffy criticized Cruz in September 2013 because of Cruz's handling of Obamacare. He said, "It is a concern, and that's why when these conservatives in the Senate were running ads, raising money and holding rallies about this great strategy and using House conservatives as pawns in that strategy, we were silent. We believe in this rule of Ronald Reagan where we don't take shots at fellow Republicans. So we held our fire. We kept our powder dry. It's just when it came to us agreeing with the strategy and Ted Cruz and others bailing on us, that it was a boiling point where that this is absolutely ridiculous. You can't talk to the American people, you can't talk to our bases on this strategy and then completely roll over. Thank God he wasn't there fighting at the Alamo." Duffy's criticism followed Cruz's comments that the bill to repeal Obamacare would fail in the Senate.[28][29]
Assaulted outside of Capitol
During the 2013 government shutdown over the budget debate, Duffy was walking to a vote at the Capitol when a citizen began screaming at him and then grabbed his arm. Duffy was not hurt, but he reported the incident to police.[30]
Duffy ran in the 2014 election for the U.S. House to represent Wisconsin's 7th District. Duffy sought the Republican nomination in the primary. The general election took place November 4, 2014.
Duffy ran for re-election in 2012.[31] He was unopposed in the Republican primary and defeated Democrat Pat Kreitlow in the November general election.[32]

Race Background
In 2011 redistricting, The Hill published a list of the "Top Ten House Members" who were helped by.[43] Duffy ranked 7th on the list.[43] The article noted that Republican state legislators traded some of the Democratic leaning areas with Republican areas, "making the district a toss-up and giving him a better chance of holding on to the seat."[43] Wisconsin's 7th District became more Republican following redistricting after the 2010 census, giving Duffy an edge over Kreitlow.[44] While the district became more Republican, Duffy came under fire in 2011 for comments he made about his personal wealth. He complained that it was difficult to pay bills on his congressional salary, which was $174,000.[45]
The 2012 race brought in a lot of money. Kreitlow raised $1.2 million by mid-October, and Duffy had raised twice that amount. Another $4.3 million was spent by outside groups on attack ads on both sides.[46]

Samoa beat Wales 26-19 in Cardiff to make another statement that their 2011 World Cup display was no one-off.
Samoa, with the core of the squad based in Europe, have shown continuity in selection and are finally getting the results.
Samoa and Ospreys scrum-half Kahn Fotuali'i was named man of the match as he constantly threatened the home team defence. Fotuali'i excelled for the Crusaders a few seasons ago and has added greater balance to his game since being based in Wales. The win will be particularly special for him given where he now plays his club rugby.
Wales fielded a very different side to the one beaten 26-12 by Argentina a week ago but if the past two weeks were a test of the squad depth it has shown vulnerability and shortcomings.
Warren Gatland's influence has also been shown up in his absence. Gatland will take charge of the side for the next two weekends when Wales will field their strongest line-up.
The back to back defeats have asked more questions of the Welsh who disappointed in losing the Test series 3-0 to Australia. The World Cup heroics had many believing Wales could dominate European rugby for the next few seasons and seriously threaten the likes of New Zealand, Australia and South Africa.
But the consistency is not yet there and while individuals showed class, like fullback Leigh Halfpenny, the Welsh as a unit were poor.
The referee Joel Jutge was also shocking but he was not the reason Wales were beaten.
Samoa deserve all credit for a victory that will continue the belief that they can be a top eight team capable of beating a top five team.
Wales edged Samoa when the teams last met at the World Cup in New Zealand, but only five of the Welsh World Cup XV started in Cardiff and Samoa took just 64 seconds to score.
Halfpenny's boot kept Wales in the game and ensured a 13-10 halftime lead, but the last 20 minutes belonged to the visitors, even though they only sealed victory with two minutes remaining.

The Logan County Commission has a short meeting Monday afternoon, but the benefits to the county will be far reaching.
First on the agenda was a request from the W.Va. Department of Health and Human Resources to have the Sheriff appointed administrator of the estate of Jerry M. Smith. Logan County Attorney Brian Abraham recommended the commission move forward with approval and they did.
Zach Browning came before the commission on behalf of the Region II Wastewater Project to request drawdown number eight for the Small Cities Block Grant Project, Wastewater. The total amount is $231,603.79. That goes to pay the contractor $228,432.47 and Region II Planning and Development Council $3,171.32. The commission approved the drawdown.
The commission approved the Logan County Assessor's office requests to hire Tammie Aleshire as a full-time deputy and Olivia Collins Mounts as a temporary employee.
Commission President Danny Godby introduced a request from the Island Creek Model Railroad Club Inc, and explained its purpose.
"They have a model railroad and they have it set up where school kids can come in to view and learn a little about the history of southern West Virginia, Logan and Mingo County and other counties that have surface and deep mining and how the engines and trains move and load the coal. It is very interesting. In fact, they have had several people come in, several young kids, who have gained a lot of knowledge concerning this. Virgil Keith Vanatter, David Long, David Adams and Fred Bradley are the gentelmen who take care of this and the president is Virgil Keith Vanatter. Quarterly, the commission gives them some type of monetary help and right now they need money."
The commission approved $2,000 for the Island Creek Model Railroad Club Inc. so they can continue their work and they will revist the issue next quarter.
Cody Perry sent a letter to the commission about the Logan County Firefighters' Ball. This is an event the commission supports on an annual basis. It is not only a meeting, they have awards, they have a speaker come in from the firefighters' association and they usually have about 500 people in attendance. By law, they can afford up to $25 per person up to 500 people. The commission approved $12,500.
The commission accepted a Victim of Crime Act Grant in the amount of $38,472 for the Logan County Prosecutor.
The commission also accepted two Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) awards from Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin: one for a violent crime prosecutor in the amount of $36,000; and another for salaries for a multi-jurisdictional drug and violent crime task force in the amount of $50,000.
Routine matters were disposed of quickly.
The next meeting will be held October 7, 2013, at 3 p.m.

Hostess Scares Hell Outa Unions.
by James Denison - 11/16/12 8:47 AM
Union Strikes, Hostess Decides to Shut Down, sell off brands. No more Twinkies, No more Wonder Bread.
"Hostess, the maker of Twinkies and Wonder Bread, plans to go out of
business, lay off its 18,500 workers and sell its snack cake and bread
The Irving, Texas, company said a nationwide
strike crippled its ability to make and deliver its products, which also
include Ding Dongs, Ho Ho's and Home Pride bread.
Hostess suspended bakery operations at all its
factories and said its stores will remain open for several days to sell
already-baked products.
Hostess said Friday the company is unprofitable "under its current cost
structure, much of which is determined by union wages and pension
A union representative did not immediately return a call from The
Associated Press seeking comment on the company's announcement.
That should put unions on notice that now is NOT a good time to strike or seek new wage concessions and other commitments.
"Yes Virginia, When you ask for too many gifts, Santa Clause can go out of business. Would you like this lump of coal? But remember, Obama also hates coal, so hide it carefully."

The Groovy-Eclipse team is pleased to release 2.0.1. Groovy-Eclipse 2.0.1 is primarily a service refresh of 2.0.0. We have fixed over 40 issues in this release.
To install 2.0.1 into Eclipse 3.5, you can update from the milestone update site you may already be using or define the following release URL to your Eclipse update manager:
Support for Eclipse 3.5.2
This release of Groovy-Eclipse can be installed into Eclipse 3.5.2.
There is one significant new feature that should be described for this release.
Filter Groovy internal stack frames
Under the covers, Groovy uses reflection to achieve much of its dynamicism. This can be problematic when using the Eclipse debugger since all of the internal stack frames are exposed to the user. There is a new option in Groovy-Eclipse to de-emphasize these stack frames and highlight show user stack frames:
Notice how the user stack frames are in black. This option can be enabled/disabled and tweaked from the Groovy -> Debugger preferences page:
What's next?
You can find more details on the Groovy-Eclipse Roadmap, where you can comment on proposed features and see our release schedule.
We appreciate all the community support and feedback we have had through the version 2.0.1 development cycle. If you wish to join the discussion about Groovy-Eclipse then please sign up for the mailing list. For any issues you have (or enhancements you'd like to see), please raise them in our issue tracker.

Today's supermarkets have a wide variety of gluten free products. Here are a few suggestions: Muellers spaghetti or Sam Mills pasta, Kellogg's rice krispies, Snyder's pretzels, Pillsbury pizza dough and cookie dough, Glutino cookies, Van's crackers, Betty Crocker cake, brownie and cookie mixes, Bob's Red Mill muesli, rolled oats, and cornbread mix, James Foods pot pies, Full Circle waffle and pancake mix, King Arthur baking mix, Udi's bread, Betty Crocker rice flour or Bisquick mix, Kady Shack puddings, and many more.
What does glute- free mean? Gluten is a gluey protein that's present in most of our common dietary staples, such as bread, pastas, cereals, and desserts. It is an essential ingredient in most baked goods because it creates the fluffy quality in cakes and muffins and binds dough, giving them their moist texture. Gluten can also be found in processed cheeses, salad dressings, beer and soy sauce.
People become gluten sensitive where their food never becomes completely digested causing gastrointestinal issues such as abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, acid reflux, chronic diarrhea, IBS, and other conditions Doctors recommend cutting out all foods containing gluten from the diet for a month to see if you have this sensitivity, by adding gluten foods back slowly.
There's a gluten-free expo in Raleigh on Aug. 9 with all sorts of vendors and educational programs. Check out delightglutenfree.com/gluten-free-events for other gluten free expos.
For those of you who are looking for some gluten-free recipes, here is a small selection of some tasty recipes.

Bake until tops are pale golden in spots, about 15 – 20 minutes. Let macaroons cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes, then gently transfer macaroons and place on cooling rack until completely set, about 20 minutes. Macaroons can be kept in an airtight container for up to a week.
