Since Emmy Awesome did us the solid of getting all sweaty hot in stretch pants, we felt obliged to inspect her bejeweled area for some of her sweet camel toe of which we've dreamed of, err, grooming, for several years now. I'll leave it up to you inspectors of the close-ups to determine what you see. I'm so happy with Emmy's all-over hotness, that I'm still working my way down to her nether regions for a Christmas time snacky treat.
As we look forward to oh so many things in the coming year, another year of Shameless and a chance to see Emmy baring her wares ought to be near the top of that list. Along with peace on earth and that other semi-important stuff, naturally. Enjoy.

Exploring Bennett Collegeby Nadia Chaudhury
The Bennett School for Girls in Millbrook, New York, also known as Bennett College, was abandoned in 1978 after filing for bankruptcy. Its ruins now stand desolate, which for us means it is time to go exploring. We pretend to walk towards Carroll Hall, once part of the college, but now converted into luxury apartments with central air, a pool, and a tennis court. Double-checking to make sure no one sees, we make a dash through the thick green surrounding the building and duck under cobwebs as we enter the dusty school.
Founded in Irvington, New York by Miss May F. Bennett in 1890, the college moved to Millbrook in 1907. It was a private all-girls school and offered Bachelor's degrees to its students. The rising popularity of coeducational facilities and a failed attempt to merge with the nearby Briarcliff College led to Bennett College filing for bankruptcy in 1977. The school was officially closed a year later.
Everywhere in the now empty, peeling halls of Bennett reveal hints of its previous life: solitary hangers in open closets, springs from old box springs, shredded mattresses, and faded wallpaper in the dorms. A tag on a wall declares, "Don't go in there." The floor is strewn with crushed beer cans, cigarette butts, and even toilets. As we pass the rooms with wide, open windows, we are careful not to catch the attention of the neighboring condo residents. We make our way to the basement, crawling through a tiny opening. We use candles to light our way through the boiler room. As we climb higher, we have to watch our steps to avoid falling through collapsing floors. In some areas, we edge along the wall to avoid the soggy centers of the floor.
Now, Bennett is for sale. The school's 29 acres are being pitched as another educational facility, a conference location, or a health-related complex.
After wandering up and down every floor and through every room, we leave covered in dust and scraps. We rush back to the street, acting as if we just played a set on the Carroll Hall tennis courts.

Kidongs Eco-Tourism Centre helps a group of over 25 ex-poachers generate sustainable incomes via this environmentally friendly venture initiated by GVI and WSPA. The Eco-Tourism Centre offers guided tours to Kidong Hill, demonstrations of traditional activities of the Kamba tribe by the village elders, delicious meals served in the Ndovu Restaurant and a huge amount of history about the transition of the people from Kidong, Kasaani and Mahandakini from poachers to protectors of wildlife. Although the road to getting the Eco-Tourism Centre up and running has been a long one, the rewards are certainly worth it.
Kidong Eco-Tourism Centre is currently featured in the February edition of the East African Destination Magazine – a popular magazine advertising travel and accommodation options throughout East Africa. Publicity such as this is hugely appreciated by everyone involved in the establishment of the Kidong Eco-Tourism Centre and all of the ex-poachers engaged in the running of the project. Thank-you to everyone past and present who has supported the development of this project, and help to make it such a successful venture.
Project Reports on GlobalGiving are posted directly to globalgiving.org by Project Leaders as they are completed, generally every 3-4 months. To protect the integrity of these documents, GlobalGiving does not alter them; therefore you may find some language or formatting issues.

|Braves' Gearrin has 'significant' elbow injury
|Written by Admin
|Saturday, 29 March 2014 05:51
Wren said Saturday tests on Friday found ''ligament involvement'' in Gearrin's elbow. Gearrin, a reliever, will be examined by Dr. James Andrews next week and will open the season on the disabled list.
The possibility Gearrin could face season-ending surgery is another blow to a Braves staff that already has lost starting pitchers Kris Medlen and Brandon Beachy this spring to their second Tommy John surgeries.
Wren says left-hander Ryan Buchter will be recalled to take Gearrin's spot in the bullpen.

Astronaut Robert L. Satcher Jr., STS-129 mission specialist, participates in the mission's third and final session of extravehicular activity (EVA) as construction and maintenance continue on the International Space Station. During the five-hour, 42-minute spacewalk, Satcher and astronaut Randy Bresnik (out of frame), mission specialist, removed a pair of micrometeoroid and orbital debris shields from the Quest airlock and strapped them to the External Stowage Platform #2, then moved an articulating foot restraint to the airlock, and released a bolt on a starboard truss ammonia tank assembly (ATA) in preparation for an STS-131 spacewalk that will replace the ATA.

Dry-Season Fires in Mozambique
April 23, 2013
The climate of Mozambique is dominated by a wet (November-April) and dry (May-October) monsoon. Fires increase in number, size, and intensity as the dry season progresses. A small number of fires start naturally, but people start the majority of fires either intentionally for agricultural purposes or accidentally. This Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) image of coastal Mozambique on August 16, 2005, shows hundreds of fires (marked in red) that were detected by MODIS as it passed overhead. Though intentional agricultural fires are not necessarily immediately hazardous, they can have strong negative impacts on human health and natural resources. The high-resolution image provided above has a spatial resolution of 250 meters per pixel. The MODIS Rapid Response Team provides this image at additional resolutions.

Re: Boat Candidate options wanted
I love the idea of a larger boat. More room obviously. Especially for long term cruising.
I really like the feel of the 30+ foot boat however.
The anchors I can handle without power.
I can man-handle it at the dock if I have to.
The forces on the sails don't seem to be so enormous.
It may just be me but it seems as though the under 40' boats are just more fun and the 40 to 50 are so serious.
I have sailed on both quite a bit and the bigger size, I can't explain it, feels like work rather than fun.
Maybe 36 will be the perfect size. Don't have much experience in that size.
Deciding on the perfect compromise is an amazingly personal emotional process.
Bigger is more luxury in every way, speed, space, toys.
Smaller is more more fun (in my opinion, less maintenance, cheaper everything, probably more sailing.
The lesson from the Icarus story is not about human failing.
It is a lesson about the limitations of wax as an adhesive.
If you have an engineering problem solve it.

"My hope is that the detailed knowledge we have obtained about the pathogenesis of celiac disease can translate into an effective therapy to benefit celiac disease patients.

CATIA: On the cutting edge of Internet CAD

All information and opinions presented in this paper are the authors. Design News online did no editing or confirmation of the information provided.
he Internet "will be the dial tone of the computer industry by the year 2000," according to a 1996 report by the influential Gartner Group consulting firm. But given the tremendous growth of the Internet over the past five years, few people need an industry analyst to realize that it is quickly revolutionizing the way we communicate.
In recent months, this has become particularly true for CATIA users. CATIA has long represented leadership in CAD technolo y,
creating the cutting edge in key areas such as hybrid modeling, concurrent engineering and virtual product development. But today, dramatic CATIA enhancements are becoming available which will extend this leadership to the Internet.
The newly-announced CATIA Web server, or CATweb Navigator, literally opens up the doors of CATIA to the Internet, letting users access and manipulate CATIA data in real time, from standard Java-enabled Web browsers. This "information anywhere" capability, which is very much in synch with IBM's corporate Network Computing strategy, will enable companies using CATIA to dramatically streamline the way they do business. This article will provide insight into what CATIA brings to the table now, and where the technology will go down the road.
CATweb Navigator offers the most dynamic remote viewing capability of any CAD software available today. But its true power is perhaps best described by the benefit users will see. Here are some basic examples. By accessing CATweb Navigator via the Internet, a marketing executive developing a magazine ad for a product can easily see a CATIA prototype, and even rotate it, so he knows what it looks like from every angle. Similarly, a manufacturing team preparing to retool for the next production run can call up the latest part model, verify specs and make sure it hasn't been modified since the last run. Or a manager can review and approve an engineer's design proposal wherever and whenever it suits him. All using a standard Web browser, without ever sitting down in front of a CATIA workstation.
CAD and the Web Today - Limited Options
Over the past few years, companies have begun to use the Internet in several ways. Virtually every major company has its own Web site containing information on the organization and its products, and these sites often contain news releases, job postings and other information relevant to insiders and outsiders. Some companies are also exploring the area of electronic commerce, actually selling products via the Internet.
Most people who use the Internet today rely on it as a reference tool, a way to view information. The Internet can be very useful when you want to get the latest news, find out about a conferenceor even get travel directions.
But for the specialized needs of design engineers, the Internet is less useful While designers may use the Internet to do things like research part information, or send email to contractors, most of their time is spent on proprietary CAD/CAM/CAE systems.
The Internet is already playing a role in the design process. Today, design review participants, who frequently outnumber design creators by a ratio of up to ten to one, can use the Internet to review and approve engineering changes. But in most cases, these reviewers are working with files that have been pulled out of the CAD system. So they may not reflect the latest design changes, or the most current version.
But in the world of true 3D design, the Internet has had only limited offerings until now. The Internet's most common 3D viewing technology, called VRML, offers only very basic 3D viewing and manipulation capabilities. More powerful ways are being developed to access 3D engineering data over the Internet, such as STEP-based browsers which have been shown in prototype demonstrations. Some companies have also shown that very limited
parametric modifications of CAD data are also feasible via the Internet. But tools for easily viewing and manipulating CAD data over the Internet have not yet become widely available.
CATWeb - A New Paradigm for Accessing CAD Data
CATIA's new CATweb application server offers capabilities that will greatly expand the utility of the Internet to the CAD world, and anyone that world touches. With CATweb, all CATIA information can be made available in seconds...to anybody, anywhere, at any time. People throughout a company, and even suppliers and business partners, can access information on products in development quickly and easily, without the need to learn CATIA. By eliminating paper drawings and other hard copy images, costs and lead times can be reduced. Worldwide communications about products can be greatly enhanced with current, accurate information that can include text, 2D and 3D images, and multimedia.
CATweb is not the first Internet capability that has been added to CATIA. In 1996, the first Internet-ready CATIA product was introduced with CATIA Version 4, Release 1.7 - CATIA Conferencing Groupware, which enables design teams working at different locations to collaborate across the Internet and review, annotate and revise CATIA designs. With the same release, CATIA's 4D Navigator was given the ability to read and translate VRML files. "Hooks" were also added to CATIA so that CAD models could be cross-linked to other Web-ready objects. In this way, users examining a CATIA model could click on a URL (Internet address) within the model, and a browser window would open with the appropriate data from an Internet or Intranet server.
But CATweb takes CATIA's Internet capabilities to a much higher level. With CATweb, users can log onto the CATIA server from any browser, and select and load a CATIA 3D assembly or model for remote viewing and manipulation. No plug-in is required. Internet objects attached to these models can even be viewed or executed. This capability could be used, for example, to do things like: view installation or maintenance information videos, examine related documents or outstanding changes, or step through text and graphics based fabrication or assembly process information.
For platform independence and portability, the CATweb Navigator is written in Java and runs on UNIX-based platforms. It runs in combination with a traditional HTTP Web server. From the Web server, applets are downloaded to standard Java-enabled browsers
(clients). Using these Java applets, clients can instruct the server to perform various database access and visualization tasks on both dynamic and static CATIA data. Instant Web publishing of CATIA information provides current HTML, VRML, and 2D snapshot images on demand. CATIA models and assemblies plus related attribute and main draft information are accessible through the UNIX file system or CATIA declarative files.
Advantages over Existing CAD Publishing Systems
There are several clear advantages to this approach over some of the more limited CAD/CAM Web publishing technologies that have
been implemented to date. Most Web publishing systems are based
on "push" technology, meaning they depend on batch processes that
publish predetermined information in static format. Once published, this information is disconnected from the core CAD database, and is only as current as its last refresh. If CAD models change, or different information or images are needed than were originally captured, that new information must be republished to the Web server. Similarly, since images have a set resolution, zooming in results in unclear or fuzzy views.
With CATweb Navigator's dynamic "pull"-based environment, 100 percent of the information on any CATIA data server is directly accessible, with no intermediate steps required. Viewers know the information is current and at the right version level. Viewing 3D geometry through 2D snapshot images delivers consistent response time regardless of model size, and allows new views to be generated on the fly. Zooming in or out provides clear refreshed images at high resolution. In the near future, additional Java applets will also be provided that increase the breadth and depth of client functions, beyond basic image viewing and manipulation.
Providing Value Through CATweb Navigator
Making all of CATIA's Virtual Product Model information accessible on demand via the Internet is a good start. But the real key to providing value in implementing a system like this is getting the right information to key decision makers when and where they need it. When implementing a CATweb application server, companies need to define and prioritize the processes that will be supported, and the types of information that users will need access to. Implementers also need to consider issues such as security needs, overall system performance requirements and the need for 3D versus 2D visualization.
Once some basic implementation parameters have been established, intelligent forms or templates can be created that provide users with the URL structure they need to "pull" the right information into their client browsers. The forms can even be designed to offer different users access to only the information pertinent to them. So for Project "X", for example, each person participating in a design review might be provided a different set of URLs depending on their individual discipline (i.e. analysis, manufacturing, materials, quality, etc.).
In the long term, CATweb should be able to perform well as a stand-alone system or in a shared HTTP server environment with common APIs, object handlers, and content handlers. This would allow users to focus almost entirely on the data they need, rather than what system it is coming from. A single query from a Web browser could access an intelligent search engine that would identify, locate and capture the appropriate information to respond to the user's request. That information could mix data from the CATIA database, a product data management system like IBM's ProductManager (which also has a Web interface), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems and other information sources, both within the company and on the Internet.
In the Future
The Internet capabilities that have been added to CATIA today are only the beginning. In the future, we anticipate that collaboration over the Internet will be possible with manipulation and editing of live CAD models in peer-to-peer browser sessions. As the Internet and intranets improve in reliability, it may also be possible to execute more robust engineering design functions through a combination of browser and Java technologies. Enhancements in Java performance and security will also increase the client-based capabilities, as will continued extensions to Java, HTML, VRML, etc.
As STEP matures, STEP-based browsers will emerge, breaking down the barriers between proprietary CAD systems while maintaining the intelligence within the models, avoiding the "dumbing down" process necessary in the creation of VRML models
While the technology will shift, and the changes will be diverse, the end result should be consistent. In the future, designers using CATIA and other CAD systems will find the Internet to be an exceptional tool, that will enable them to do more, and to do things more quickly and easily, virtually every day.

LinkedIn tool shares user info on iPhone email
Thursday - 10/24/2013, 8:40pm EDT
AP Technology Writer
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -- LinkedIn just gave its users another reason to ensure their resumes are up to date. The online professional network has introduced a mobile feature that shows information about people's careers in emails being read on iPhones.
The tool, called Intro, pulls details from the profiles of LinkedIn's more than 238 million users so the recipient of an email can learn more about the sender.
The information will be limited to what the email senders already allow anyone to be seen on their LinkedIn accounts, unless they already have granted the recipient broader access through a connection on the service.
The feature released Wednesday works with Gmail, Yahoo Mail, AOL Mail and Apple Inc.'s iCloud when any of them are plugged into the iPhone's built-in email app. LinkedIn Corp. plans to update the feature so it also works with Microsoft Corp.'s Outlook.com and Exchange email. It's available at https://intro.linkedin.com/ .
Intro also works on Apple Inc.'s iPad, although the feature isn't tailored for that device. LinkedIn eventually will release a version of Intro designed especially for the tablet format.
LinkedIn imported the technology powering the Intro feature from its acquisition last year of Rapportive, a startup that had already been mining online social networks to include personal information in correspondence sent to Gmail accounts.
Intro is part of LinkedIn's push to make its network indispensable on mobile devices as more people manage their personal and professional lives on smartphones and tablets.
LinkedIn says about 38 percent of the traffic to it networking services now comes through mobile devices, up from just 8 percent in early 2011. LinkedIn CEO Jeff Weiner predicted Wednesday that mobile devices would be reeling in more than half the service's traffic at some point next year.
As part of its effort to make its network more alluring on mobile, LinkedIn also released a new version of its service's app for the iPad.
LinkedIn's strategy has been paying off since the company went public nearly two-and-half years ago. The Mountain View, Calif. company has consistently been delivering earnings that exceed analyst projections, helping to lift its stock by more than five-fold from its initial public offering price of $45.
The shares shed $3.60 to $241.35 in Wednesday afternoon trading, as the broader markets ticked down..

WEDNESDAY, May 25 (HealthDay News) -- Taken in combination, two commonly prescribed drugs, the antidepressant Paxil and the cholesterol-lowering medication Pravachol, appear to significantly raise blood sugar levels, a new study finds.
The increase is most apparent -- and concerning -- among diabetics, whose blood sugar is already too high, the researchers noted.
"This interaction may affect as many as 1 million Americans who might be on these two drugs and who are getting a bump in their blood glucose that may be unnecessary," said lead researcher Dr. Russ Altman, a professor of bioengineering, genetics and medicine at Stanford University.
It's possible that the blood sugar spike triggered a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes in some patients, Altman said, "and we might have been able to avoid that diagnosis if they hadn't been on these drugs," he said. "That's speculative, but it's possible."
Neither drug alone raises blood sugar, and the researchers said they can't yet explain the effect of the combination. Also, combinations of other antidepressants and cholesterol-lowering drugs do not boost glucose levels. "It is not what we would call a 'class' effect," Altman explained.
Paxil (paroxetine) is in a class of drugs called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), and Pravachol (pravastatin) belongs to a group of drugs called statins. "We looked at all other pairs of SSRIs and statins, and there were a couple that showed a tiny bump in glucose, but there is nothing like the bump seen with Paxil and Pravachol," Altman said.
For the study, published online May 25 in Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics, the researchers used a technique called data mining, scanning large databases in hopes of finding information that, while not immediately obvious, is gleaned by combining data in a new way.
In this case, Altman's team used data from the U.S

A 2-year ranking system is one of the most interesting suggestions I have ever heard in the players' council (and no surprise that Nadal, the most creative thinker in tennis history) came up with it. Players who have consistently been great but have been injured for a while shouldn't be punished because of it, but players like Janowicz, who have done nothing but make 3rd rounds of slams (not impressive) and get to the final of the most unimportant and boring Masters 1000 tournament in world history (next to Shanghai) don't get rewarded for small, explosive runs in a tournament with a slightly high points value.
They should be consistently getting good results to prove they can make an impact in the tennis world.

The Vanishersby Heidi Julavits
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
From the acclaimed novelist and The Believer editor Heidi Julavits, a wildly imaginative and emotionally intense novel about mothers, daughters, and the psychic damage women can inflict on one another.
Is the bond between mother and daughter unbreakable, even by death?
Julia Severn is a student at an elite institute for psychics. Her mentor, the legendary Madame Ackermann, afflicted by jealousy, refuses to pass the torch to her young disciple. Instead, she subjects Julia to the humiliation of reliving her mother's suicide when Julia was an infant. As the two lock horns, and Julia gains power, Madame Ackermann launches a desperate psychic attack that leaves Julia the victim of a crippling ailment.
Julia retreats to a faceless job in Manhattan. But others have noted Julia's emerging gifts, and soon she's recruited to track down an elusive missing person—a controversial artist who might have a connection to her mother. As Julia sifts through ghosts and astral clues, everything she thought she knew of her mother is called into question, and she discovers that her ability to know the minds of others—including her own—goes far deeper than she ever imagined.
As powerful and gripping as all of Julavits's acclaimed novels, The Vanishers is a stunning meditation on grief, female rivalry, and the furious power of a daughter's love.
"A young student surpasses her troubled mentor, unleashing much wrath, in Julavits's wry, witty new novel (after The Uses of Enchantment). Julia Severn is a mediocre student at New Hampshire's Institute of Integrated Parapsychology, which is no Hogwarts. Frauds mix with the rare mystic, and students attempt — mostly in vain — to telepathically petrify hunks of pork. Enigmatic psychic diva Madame Ackermann handpicks Julia to be her stenographer, spreading jealousy until Madame feels threatened by Julia and morphs from harmless dingbat into sinister sociopath, ousting the student and debilitating her abilities. Relocated to New York, Julia finds work that is so odd it's often mistaken for performance art. As she begins to recover her abilities, she meets the mysterious Alwyn and finds her fortune deeply intertwined with a missing feminist French filmmaker who may hold insight about her dead mother. Julia comes to discover much about herself, the world, and her formidable former mentor. Packed with a revolving cast of faces, the story frequently switches into the past, especially at the outset, which can create confusion. But the overall effect is magical, and Julavits's often acerbic prose generates laughs despite the sad reality of Julia's life. Agent: Henry Dunow, Dunow, Carlson & Lerner." Publishers Weekly Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.
"The Vanishers is a fascinating inquiry into matriarchal structures: their power struggles, the projections, distortions and anxieties that result, and, above all, the creative — and destructive — energies that they unleash. A real achievement." Tom McCarthy, author of Remainder and C
"It is always an adventure and a delight to read Heidi Julavits. Her intellectual brio and descriptive inventiveness are on full display in The Vanishers, but she's gone further this time by inventing a new genre: the astral detective thriller." Jennifer Egan, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of A Visit from the Goon Squad
"A technical marvel...that moves with the speed and inevitability of a freight train...Entertaining, devastating, and as slippery as a strand of its anti-heroine's lank hair." Los Angeles Times Book Review
"Julavits expertly keeps the reader baffled until the end, but beneath the mystery is a sophisticated meditation on truth and bias." The New Yorker
"Suspenseful, energetic, and literarily playful." San Francisco Chronicle
About the Author
Heidi Julavits is the author of three critically acclaimed novels, The Uses of Enchantment, The Effect of Living Backwards, and The Mineral Palace. Her fiction has appeared in Harper's, Esquire, and The Best American Short Stories, among other places. She's a founding editor of The Believer magazine and the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship.

CANBERRA, Australia – Scientists are planning to move Tasmanian devils – the Australian marsupial made famous as a snarling, whirlwind character in Warner Bros. cartoons – to an island sanctuary to avert the animals' threatened extinction from a mysterious cancer.
But some scientists fear that in their haste to save the species, authorities could wreak further environmental damage and risk the survival of other endangered animals by introducing the devils into a habitat unaccustomed to them.
The devils – fox-sized animals with powerful jaws and a bloodcurdling growl made famous by their Looney Toons namesake, Taz – are being wiped out on the island state of Tasmania by a contagious cancer that creates grotesque facial tumors.
The disease was first noticed in the mid-1990s in the state's northeast, where 90 percent of the devils have since perished. It is relentlessly spreading south and west.
Scientists estimate that within five years, there will be no disease-free population in Tasmania – the only place in the world where the devils exist outside zoos.
"I think there's a real risk of extinction within 20 years across the whole of Tasmania," said Hamish McCallum, a professor of wildlife research at the University of Tasmania.
McCallum is among a group of experts who plan to transfer 30 devils off Tasmania's east coast to Maria Island – a former 19th century prison that is now home to several endangered species of birds.
The move, which state and federal governments are expected to approve within weeks, is controversial because scientists can only guess at the impact the introduced carnivores will have on the uninhabited island's ecology.
"This is a very unusual situation and very unusual situations require unusual action," McCallum said.
"I don't want to get into an argument about whether a devil is worth more than a forty-spotted pardalote," he said, referring to an endangered bird species that has made the island its home. "But in my opinion, the risk posed to endangered species by devils would be minimal."
David Obendorf, a veterinary pathologist who in 2000 sounded one of the first warnings of the threat to the devils, said several experts shared his concerns about the Maria Island plan.
"It's clearly an experiment and I think they are considering the need to act decisively and quickly because this disease is more important than the consequences," Obendorf said.
Maria would be the first of about half a dozen islands to become quarantined colonies of wild devils, which are currently not found on any of the thousands of Tasmanian islands.
Advocates hope that if devils are wiped out on the Tasmanian mainland the disease will die along with them, and the animals placed in havens can then be safely reintroduced.
Maria island has been identified previously as a potential species-saving haven.
In the 1970s, authorities said it would be an ideal sanctuary for the devils' cousin, the Tasmanian tiger – a striped, Labrador-like carnivore that like the devil carried its young in a pouch – and stocked it with kangaroos and wallabies that could be prey for the animals.
But the last known tiger died in a zoo in 1933, and long-held hopes of finding some in the wild never materialized.
Kangaroo numbers on Maria have exploded, and hundreds have to be shot at regular intervals to prevent them starving through overgrazing.
Supporters of the devil colony note that Maria is far from a pristine ecosystem and that the kangaroos and wallabies present potential food sources that have no rightful place in the island environment.
Critics argue that the devils might threaten the endangered stag beetle or bird nesting areas on the island.

Hey, I haven't been issuing out as often as I should. Don't forget reward folks when warranted.
I've definately been giving out any points I can. It's just that they aren't going to the people that think they are so witty. They're going to the folks that actually want to talk baseball instead of rant.
Too bad I have a policy of not giving negative points (sigh). So many possibilities, so many possibilities. :laugh:
So this post right here, is this talking baseball?Quote:

I think people are handing out rep for the wrong reasons when a poster in this thread with exactly 2 posts has 61 rep points. Did someone put Dan O'Brien in charge of handing out rep?
It's actually been a lot less crazy on here than I thought it would be in the wake of the Casey trade...
I was expecting a flood of "WHAT?! U CANT TRADE THA MAYOR!!!111"
I like the new system alot. I havent gotten even close to enough rep points yet but I think there are a lot like me who just want to read intelligent post and it has gotten much easier with this system. I dont post as much, but I think I read more.
I think you just changed rem's policy of not giving out negative pts. :lol:Quote:

Officials weigh $4 million in spending cuts
Layoffs, reduction in fire and police services on table
• Contract with the Sheriff's Department for the city's SWAT team instead of maintaining one within the Police Department.
• Further cut funding to the California Center for the Arts, Escondido.
• Trim the city's management positions.
The city manager said afterward that he would:
• Need to consider layoffs to reach the $4 million target. The city laid off 25 employees last year.
• Let code enforcement take a big share of the reductions; it has a $1.2 million budget, and was beefed up over the years.
• Leave management positions unfilled when employees retire.
This week's spending-cut discussion was one of many held during the past two years to address steep declines in sales tax revenue, which makes up 40 percent of Escondido's revenue.

Does anyone have experience or information on Martin 32's?

The Martin 32 is a fairly quick, but tender, narrow boat. Locally built in Richmond by Martin Yachts (builders, in the 70s/80s of Martin 29, Martin 242, Martin 32, Martin 32 lobsterboat, and a series of Peterson 35s under licence.)
I'd say build quality is average, certainly not blue water heavy duty. The narrow beam makes for a good upwind boat, but they are tender and a bit skittish downwind with the spinnaker in a blow. Clean lines, no IOR bumps or anything like that.
The interior is straightforward, more or less standard with less room than today's beamier boats obviously. My major beef with the interior setup is that for some reason they built the settees very low - when you sit there your knees seem up around your ears - not sure why, the boat's got plenty of headroom. A friend with one raised the settee and created more storage that way.
They are a decent looking boat, most with a distinctive broad stripe along the cabin house to reduce its visible height. Decent cockpit too. I think they built about a dozen or so.
They'd make decent BC coastal cruisers, esp for a family but you'll probably need a good reefing setup in the shoulder seasons. We owned a M242 for 15 years and despite some of our best efforts, never really broke it... I've done a windy Swiftsure on a M32 - a bit wet in those conditions upwind, and had one memorable wipeout at Race Rocks... the usual stuff.
I'm sure you've seen this, two clean looking examples available locally now.... pretty good bang for the buck.

By David J. Kozlowski: Baby Joe Mesi once had a promising career in the heavyweight division. Boxing experts even included him among the top fighters in the weight class. By 2004, he was undefeated and immensely popular in his hometown of Buffalo, New York. Then he ran into a blown-up Cruiserweight named Vassily Jirov, who only a year before had lost a very close 12-round decision to James Toney.
Mesi dominated early, but was knocked down once in the ninth round and twice in the tenth, and only sheer power of will carried him to the final bell. Mesi beat Jirov 9493 on all three cards, but suffered a subdural hematoma (bleeding on the brain) in the fight. The injury resulted in his suspension from fighting by the Nevada Athletic Commission. That was in March of 2004. He has since had trouble getting licensed by other states, and is still unable to fight professionally in New York.
Despite only being allowed to fight in a handful of states, Mesi began a comeback in 2006, and has run off seven straight victories against lightly-regarded opponents. Now, with a professional record of 360, Mesis boxing career may be ending again, but he will still be fighting. On April 5, 2008, Baby Joe Mesi officially announced his candidacy for the New York State Senate.
New Yorks 61st Senate District seat is being vacated by the retiring Mary Lou Rath. Running as a Democrat, Mesi faces at least three Democrat rivals and two Republicans. In the face of such competition, Mesi said, I think you remember from my Vassily Jirov fight
I will never, ever give up.
Mesi, 34, has plenty of name recognition, but knows he faces some challenges, including his lack of experience. In answer to this criticism, he noted, I am not a career politician but I am no stranger to politics, I do know the issues. He cites his experience running his own promotion company, his Baby Joe Mesi Fight for Organ Donation foundation, and his volunteer experience with various charities. His Web site points out the difference between his experience and that of other New York politicians: I don't have a record of delivering higher taxes, job losses, and bloated state budgets.
Job creation is the biggest issue on the Mesi campaign platform. We have to give people more opportunities in this area, he said. He also supports lowering taxes, investing in green energy, cutting waste and improving the economy, among other things. He intends to bring an average persons viewpoint to the state capital in Albany.
Mesi acknowledged that his boxing career would take a back seat while he worked on his campaign full-time. You may have seen my last fight, Mesi said. Of course, if he wins, he may encounter more fighting in the New York Senate than he ever has in the gym, and his perfect record will be hard to maintain.

MIDDLEBURY — Recent elections for the Middlebury selectboard have gone wanting for candidates.
Not this year.
Middlebury's Town Meeting Day ballot will feature six candidates vying for three vacancies on the selectboard, races that will include three incumbents and several familiar faces.

FERRISBURGH — Ferrisburgh selectmen on Tuesday approved a roughly $1.619 million town budget for fiscal year 2013, but on Town Meeting Day Ferrisburgh voters will have the option of adding up to $79,000 to that bottom line.
The selectboard's spending proposal does not include about $29,000 of charitable donations that Ferrisburgh residents typically back in March, plus two articles that would create capital funds: $30,000 for the town's fire department and $30,000 for the public works department.
MIDDLEBURY — In 1996, Robert Gold was blind sided by oncoming pickup truck as he sat at an intersection in Manchester, N.H. The accident left him with traumatic brain injuries that ended his lucrative dental practice and drove friends and family away.
But the accident gave Gold, now a Middlebury resident, a second life as a self-taught artist. Although he can no longer wield the tools of his former trade, Gold has turned to a vocation where he combines photography and painting to create works of beauty in a unique style.
MIDDLEBURY — The ID-4 school board is considering a comprehensive makeover of Mary Hogan Elementary School's recreation areas, an initiative boosters will likely complete in phases using grants, donations and volunteer labor.
David Raphael, principal of Middlebury-based LandWorks, on Monday presented Middlebury's ID-4 board with some ideas for replacing the aging-but-popular Kidspace apparatus while adding some new amenities and landscaping.
The board liked what it saw, according to ID-4 board Chairwoman Karen Lefkoe.
MIDDLEBURY — Residents in the Addison Central Supervisory Union towns of Bridport, Cornwall, Ripton, Shoreham, Salisbury and Weybridge will soon vote on 2012-2013 elementary school spending plans that in many cases reflect small increases in spending but decreases in education property taxes.
The proposed budgets, according to ACSU interim Superintendent Gail Conley, show a commitment by school directors to keep expenses low.
LEICESTER — On Town Meeting Day in March, Leicester voters will see a ballot with two open selectboard spots.
Incumbent Ron Fiske will be running to reclaim his two-year position on the selectboard, but longtime board member Robert Oliver will step down once his three-year term has ended, bidding farewell to the board after 19 years.
Oliver said he is retiring after more than 40 years of service to the town between the school board and selectboard.
RIPTON — Bill McKibben had reason to celebrate last week after President Obama rejected a proposed massive pipeline that would have shipped oil from Canada to Texas. He was a prominent force in opposition to the Keystone XL Pipeline.
But the Ripton-based environmental activist isn't taking a rest. McKibben and 500 protesters plan to march on Capital Hill Tuesday adorned in referee outfits.
MIDDLEBURY — Green Mountain Power CEO Mary Powell believes her company's proposed merger with Central Vermont Public Service Corp. (CVPS) will stabilize utility rates, save customers $500 million during the next 20 years and make the state a stronger place to do business.
NEW HAVEN — As a very young child in New Haven, Julie Frost showed she had a great sense of rhythm and was drawn to music, recalled her mother, Jean Stilley.
"She loved to be part of family sing-alongs," Stilley said.
Stilley and Frost's father, Ted Wesley, gave Julie a guitar at age six, which she took to. She also learned a little piano and played the clarinet in the marching band at Mount Abraham Union High School.

DVD: Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster/Invasion of Astro-Monster
Godzilla may be the star of Classic Media's terrific giant-monster series, but it's another Tokyo-smashing behemoth that steals the spotlight in the two latest offerings. Ghidorah introduces the dragon-like creature; Astro-Monster brings him back for another skirmish with everyone's favorite radioactive lizard. Each set includes both the Japanese and edited U.S. versions of the movies, plus commentary and trailers.
CD: David Bowie reissues
The Best of David Bowie 1980-1987: Sight & Sound compiles the Thin White Duke's most commercially successful ("Let's Dance") and creatively barren ("When the Wind Blows") periods. The DVD supplement includes 15 groundbreaking videos. Even better is the expanded version of Young Americans, Brit Bowie's 1974 take on Philly-style soul. The bonus tracks are cool, but the singer's coked-up appearance on a Dick Cavett Show DVD clip is priceless.
DVD: Extras: The Complete Second Season
The second season of Ricky Gervais's hilarious show about struggling actors (which airs on HBO) contains only six episodes. But they're the funniest three hours you're likely to see all year. This two-disc set gathers all the eps, plus outtakes and behind-the-scenes features. But it's self-satirizing guest stars—like a vain Orlando Bloom, a horny Daniel Radcliffe, and an arrogant Chris Martin—who make the series so exceptional.
TV: Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law
Adult Swim's most consistently funny show takes its final bow after six years. The winged superhero—originally created by Hanna-Barbera in the '60s and tweaked into a courtroom lawyer saddled with defendants like Scooby-Doo and Fred Flintstone—spirals into drunken depression during his last outing. It airs at 11:45 p.m. Sunday on Cartoon Network.
VIDEO GAME: Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Anniversary
The pixilated hottie celebrates 10 years with a PlayStation 2 outing that cribs inspiration from the original game that launched the hit series. Eschewing the convoluted play that's marred some subsequent adventures, this back-to-basics, action-packed excursion reminds us why we fell in love with Lara in the first place.
COURTESY FLUSH, PLEASE: Mad Men
Despite a kinda neat twist at the end of the first episode, AMC's 13-week series about the advertising world (which premieres at 10:00 p.m. Thursday) rarely rises above its clichés. Set in 1960 New York, the Madison Avenue drama places its one-dimensional ad guys and gals in two categories: ruthless players who like screwing over others to seal a deal, and ruthless players who just like screwing.
