TrueCar is a free service that helps car buyers connect with our network of over 10,000 new car dealers across the U.S. Each TrueCar Certified Dealer is committed to providing upfront pricing information for every vehicle on the lot – including full disclosure of any hidden costs or fees – in a hassle-free car buying experience for TrueCar members. The TrueCar car buying app provides tools to understand the current market price for brand new cars and trucks in your local area, and helps you understand the Guaranteed Savings* being offered by each TrueCar Certified Dealer. The app also includes a tool that reveals the TrueCar Price from any window sticker while on a TrueCar Certified Dealer's lot.
This should help you understand what we're about:
• A service designed to provide new car buying without hassle or stress.
• See what others paid in your local area and compare that to the TrueCar Estimate.
• Get Guaranteed Savings buying from a TrueCar Certified Dealer (an average of $3,221 off MSRP!!)**
• Access to dealers committed to price transparency with upfront prices on every new car in stock.
• Know which salesperson to ask for to make sure you get the TrueCar hassle-free buying experience.
• No surprises, hidden fees or "extras" baked into your deal – you always know how much you should pay.
• Search through all the new cars at TrueCar Certified Dealers to get the TrueCar Price while on the lot, or simply scan window sticker barcodes.
• No pressure to make a decision or stress over negotiating the price.
• Easily configure and save your ideal vehicle with your favorite options, colors and the very latest manufacturer incentives.
• Get competitive price estimates for the new car you desire from up to three TrueCar Certified Dealers.
• Receive offers on in-stock vehicles within 24 hours of engaging with your dealer.
Some stuff our marketing team thought we should mention:
• 97% of TrueCar users who purchased a car from a Certified Dealer would recommend to others. (That's pretty cool.)
• Over 1,300,000 cars sold by TrueCar Certified Dealers to our members.
• Members buying with TrueCar have saved more than $1 billion off MSRP.
Some stuff the lawyers wanted us to mention:
* Guaranteed Savings currently not available in all states. In these instances, a "Target Price" is presented, which is not an advertised price, but an example of what you can reasonably expect to pay for a vehicle with your preferred options. Guaranteed Savings represents the amount that a TrueCar Certified Dealer selected by you guarantees that you will save off the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price ("MSRP") on any in-stock vehicle that is the same make, model, and trim as your Ideal Vehicle. The Guaranteed Savings is based on a vehicle without factory or dealer installed options and includes generally available manufacturer incentives.
** Between 4/1/14 and 6/30/14, the average estimated savings off MSRP presented by TrueCar Certified Dealers to users of TrueCar powered websites, based on users who configured virtual vehicles and subsequently purchased a new vehicle of the same make and model listed on the certificate from Certified Dealers, was $3,221, including applicable vehicle specific manufacturer incentives. Your actual savings may vary based on multiple factors including the vehicle you select, region, dealer, and applicable vehicle specific manufacturer incentives which are subject to change. The Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price ("MSRP") is determined by the manufacturer, and may not reflect the price at which vehicles are generally sold in the dealer's trade area as not all vehicles are sold at MSRP. Each dealer sets its own pricing. Your actual purchase price is negotiated between you and the dealer. TrueCar does not sell or lease motor vehicles.

5th Intercultural Interdisciplinary Colloquium
From 20 to 22 May 2015, polylog is organising its 5th Intercultural Interdisciplinary Colloquium, in cooperation with the Institute for Science and Art in Vienna, the Viennese Society for Intercultural Philosophy (WiGiP), the Institute of Philosophy at the University of Vienna, and the Forum Scientiarum at the University of Tübingen. The topic of the colloquium is:
Reconciliation and Justice
Since the 1990s, there has been a notable reception of the notion of reconciliation in political theory. While before it was conceived primarily as a moral and eschatological dimension in religious contexts, as well as it represents, on an individual level, a well-established concept in psychology, today the interest focuses more on its political potency; not least because of the implementation of a whole series of truth and reconciliation commissions, from Chile to South Africa, from Morocco to Sri Lanka and on to East Timor. The experiences gained there did not only change political practice, but also stimulated theoretical reflection. With this, the notion of reconciliation becomes situated in a new semantic context: for example, it is understood, beyond the personal level, as a way of coping with the past or as a method of conflict resolution with a national scope.
Crucial for this idea is the focus on the role of the concrete acting subjects, in their immediate concerns, social entanglements and ethical responsibilities, as persons and also as groups. As a kind of social cement for public welfare, person-oriented reconciliation is then undeniably superior to case-oriented justice, which is concerned with balancing divergent interests. As for the Western context, there exist few approaches to this notion of reconciliation in personal and communitarian orientation, particularly in some formulations of Jewish political thought, for example with Hermann Cohen or Hannah Arendt. Nevertheless, as of now reconciliation continues to be a less reflected upon concept. This is made painfully and impressively manifest, for instance, by its absence in many philosophical dictionaries.
There are plenty of open questions which demand clarification with regard to the possible role of the notion of reconciliation in political theory, especially in its relation to diverse conceptions of justice. Is it possible and does it make sense to expand local models of social community to society as a whole? How can reconciliation succeed on a national level? In the end, is reconciliation actually the right way? When might it possibly wrong to initiate an attempt at reconciliation? What preconditions allow reconciliation? What factors make it impossible? To what extent does the process of reconciliation include matters of justice? Do reconciliation and justice depend on each other, are they in contrast, or do they behave independently? How do political practices of reconciliation and justice differ in an intercultural sense? How relevant are the ideas of conscientisation, reparation and punishment to the processes of reconciliation and justice? What is the purpose of reconciliation and justice under the force of power politics?
The colloquium intends to create a space for the discussion of such issues with an intercultural orientation and it seeks to explore further the dimensions of reconciliation from a philosophical perspective, particularly as interconnected with the notion of justice:
The programme of the colloquium can be downloaded here: Programme

11 Perfectly-Timed Animal Photos
Achieving a perfectly-timed picture is tricky stuff, because it doesn't usually happen on purpose. But when these photos are done right, the result is Web G-O-L-D.
Achieving a perfectly-timed picture is tricky stuff, because it doesn't usually happen on purpose. But when these photos are done right, the result is Web G-O-L-D.
Why is it so amusing to watch cats do dumb stuff? Like riding on one of those robot vacuum cleaners, it doesn't make any sense why the cat would be on one of those yet it is so fun to watch. Especially when that cat is dressed like a shark and chasing a duck around the room
People can be awkward. Missed high fives, cell phone crashing-- humans are pretty darn good at making things hilariously embarrassing. Luckily for our own entertainment purposes, we've discovered another variety of awkward masters-- animals!
The Bjork video above is how it all began. We see a cat dressed in a suit at a table, reading a paper. Eventually somebody had the brilliant idea to provide it with a caption, and a meme was born.
Our childhood pet was a cat named Snowball whose two special tricks were hiding behind the refrigerator and disappearing for weeks on end. Sometimes we would think that Snowball was hiding behind the refrigerator, and then it would be a couple of days, and we would start worrying that Snowball had died behind the refrigerator, and then a week later she would show up and be mad that there wasn't food waiting for her
Stay fluffy, my friends.
Cats vs. mirrors: the battle rages on.
Who will win the epic battle?
Sure, they're soft and furry and graceful, but this video proves that felines have attitude!
We have no idea why, but animals are like, super talented when it comes to photography. Remember how they're master photobombers? That's just the beginning. Even though their talent is slightly greater than that of us humans, there are zero complaints on our end, because the result is always entertaining, adorable, strangely hilarious or all of the above.
It's time to have a serious discussion about those cute and sometimes lovable animals that we call cats. It turns out they really aren't so cute and lovable, but instead crazy, deranged serial killers!

The beauty of this dish is that you hardly have to do any cooking. It is a simple assembly job, with clean, cooling, delicious flavours for the summer months.
Boil the noodles in salted boiling water, for about 2 minutes. Drain and cool the noodles in iced water. Once they are cold, drain and coat with a little bit of sesame oil. Refrigerate for a few hours. Cut the top and tail of the leg with scissors and cut along the length of the leg. Pry the shell open and remove the meat. Soak the crab meat in a little of the cha soba sauce. For about a minute or 2. Finely slice the ginger, spring onion and red chilli.

Trim the radish and score across the base. Bring the vinegar to the boil to dissolve the sugar, add the radishes and allow the liquid to cool, letting the spices infuse the radish.

Champaign, Ill. -
Illinois Men's Basketball Game Notes vs. Ohio State in PDF Format
On the Air
Illini Probable Starters
Off the Bench
Illinois Head Coach Bruce Weber
Ohio State Head Coach: Thad Matta
Series Notes: Ohio State
In the Big Ten opener for both teams on Jan. 3, Ohio State defeated Illinois 74-58 at the Assembly Hall.
Back on the Road
Illini Headlines ...
Including Tuesday's game at Ohio State, five of Illinois' first seven conference games have come against teams in the top five of the current standings, four of which have been on the road.
Seniors Shaun Pruitt and Brian Randle are combining for 30.3 points (91) and 18.3 rebounds (55) over the last three games.
Randle is averaging 14.3 points (43) and 10.3 rebounds (31) over the last three games. He had nine points and 10 rebounds at Indiana, a career-high 19 points with 10 boards vs. Michigan, and his second consecutive double-double with 15 points and a season-high 11 rebounds at Purdue.
Pruitt, meanwhile, is averaging 16.0 points (48) and 8.0 rebounds (24) over the last three games. He had 14 points and eight rebounds at Indiana, 19 points and seven boards vs. Michigan, and 15 points and nine boards at Purdue.
Pruitt and Randle combined for 38 points vs. Michigan last Wednesday, equaling the senior duo's highest scoring total of the season. They also combined for 38 points vs. Miami (OH) on Dec. 20.
Calvin Brock leads the Big Ten in 3-point field goal shooting in conference play, shooting 75 percent (6-8).
Trent Meacham is averaging 11.0 points over the last four games (44) after totaling just five points over the previous two games. He had 14 points at Wisconsin, eight at Indiana and 11 vs. both Michigan and Purdue.
Chester Frazier has a 4.8 assist-to-turnover ratio over his last four games (19 a/4 to).
Meacham has a 2.6 assist-to-turnover ratio over the last three games (13 a/5 to).
Shaun Pruitt leads the Big Ten in offensive rebounds with an average of 3.6 per game (68 total off. reb.). He ranks fourth in the league in total rebounds (7.9 avg).
Trent Meacham knocked down 4-of-5 three-pointers vs. Wisconsin on Jan. 10, the top 3-point shooting performance by an Illini player this season.
Shaun Pruitt has scored at least nine points in all but two games this season.
Eight different players have been the Illini's leading scorer in a game this season (Brian Randle-7, Shaun Pruitt-6, Trent Meacham-4, Calvin Brock-2, Rodney Alexander-1, Demetri McCamey-1, Mike Tisdale-1, Chester Frazier-1)
Only five teams have scored more than 70 points against the Illini this year (last: Purdue, Jan. 19, 74 pts).
Illinois has not allowed an opponent to score 80 or more points in 45 consecutive games. The last team to do so was Arizona on Dec. 2, 2006 (84 points).
Illinois has only had two opponents this season shoot better than 46 percent from the field (Duke on Nov. 20 - 56.5%, and Wisconsin on Jan. 10 - 52.1%).
Illinois has outrebounded its opponent in 14 of 19 games and ranks fourth in the Big Ten in rebound margin at +5.2 rpg.
Shaun Pruitt was named Big Ten Co-Player of the Week on Dec. 24 after averaging 16.3 points and 10.3 rebounds over three games vs. Western Carolina, Miami (OH) and Missouri. He became the first Illini to earn Player of the Week honors since James Augustine on Dec. 5, 2005.
Pruitt has started every game over the past two-and-a-half seasons, entering the Ohio State game with an active streak of 87 consecutive starts.
Pruitt is Illinois' active career scoring leader with 877 career points. If he maintains his season scoring average, Pruitt should join the 1,000-point club around the first week of March. He is also 31 points away from joining the Top 50 list of Illinois' all-time leading scorers (No. 50 Stephen Bardo - 908 pts).
There have been 54 consecutive sellout crowds at the Assembly Hall entering the next home game vs. Northwestern on Jan. 27. The streak began on Dec. 6, 2004.
Last Time Out: Purdue
Illinois shot 49 percent compared to Purdue's 41.5 percent and outrebounded the Boilers 38-25. But turnovers and free throws plagued the Illini. The UI committed a season-high 21 turnovers, 15 of which came in the second half, and made just 10-21 at the foul line.
Brian Randle and Shaun Pruitt led the Illini, scoring 15 points apiece. Randle recorded his second straight double-double with a season-high 11 rebounds, while Pruitt grabbed nine boards. Trent Meacham also finished in double figures with 11 points.
Seniors Provide 1-2 Punch
Oh So Close
Tough Schedule
Illinois has already played five teams in the current top 25 of the RPI and will face its sixth on Tuesday in Ohio State, which is currently ranked 24th.
Lock Down "D"
No team has reached 80 points on the Illini this season, with just five opponents scoring more than 70 points. Illinois' defense also has allowed only two teams to shoot over 46 percent from the field.
Illinois' defense has stood out this year against two of the nation's top scoring teams. Missouri ranks 15th in the NCAA in scoring, averaging 82.1 ppg. But Illinois held the Tigers to a season-low 58 points, 24 points below its average, in a Braggin' Rights victory on Dec. 22.
Illinois held Indiana, the Big Ten's top scoring team and No. 22 in the NCAA, nearly 20 points below its season average on Jan. 13. The Hoosiers are averaging 81.3 points but scored a season-low 62 vs. the Illini.
Illinois has also had two other memorable defensive efforts this season. The Illini held Loyola (MD) to 20 percent shooting (13-65) on Dec. 28, the lowest field goal percentage in the 44-year history of Assembly Hall.
Illinois also held Western Carolina to 35 points on Dec. 17, the third-lowest point total in Assembly Hall history and just one point off the record-low score of 34 set by Wisconsin-Milwaukee in 1985 and tied by Savannah State last season.
Dominating the Glass
Bench Production
Pruitt a Force Inside
Pruitt has scored at least nine points in all but two games this season, with a career-high 24 points vs. both Arizona and Miami (OH), 19 vs. Michigan, 16 vs. Loyola (MD), 15 at Hawaii and Purdue, 14 vs. Missouri and Indiana, 12 vs. Northeastern and Ohio State, 11 vs. Duke and Western Carolina, 10 at Maryland, and nine each vs. Arizona State, Oklahoma State, Penn State and Wisconsin.
Pruitt made 10-of-11 from the field against Arizona on Dec. 8, which tied the sixth-best shooting performance in school history and is the top percentage by a Big Ten player this season.
Pruitt scored in double figures for five consecutive games (Arizona through Loyola) before the streak came to an end vs. Tennessee State on Dec. 30 (7 points). It marked the first time he reached double figures in five straight games since his career-long streak of six straight games last season (1/20/07 through 2/7/07).
Pruitt has 12 career double-doubles including three this season: 12 pts-17 reb vs. Northeastern, 24 pts-15 reb vs. Miami and 16 pts-11 reb vs. Loyola. His career-high 17 rebounds vs. Northeastern marked the highest rebounding total by an Illini player in eight seasons, since Sergio McClain had 18 rebounds at Michigan on Jan. 16, 2000.
In addition to ranking fourth in the Big Ten in rebounding, Pruitt leads the league in offensive rebounds with an average of 3.6 per game (68 total).
One of the most Illini's most durable players in recent years, Pruitt has started every game over the last two-and-a-half seasons and enters the Ohio State game with an active streak of 87 consecutive starts. He is Illinois' active career scoring leader with 877 career points. If he maintains his season scoring average, Pruitt should join the 1,000-point club around the first week of March. He is also 31 points away from joining the Top 50 list of Illinois' all-time leading scorers (No. 50 Stephen Bardo - 908 pts).
Randle More Aggressive on Offense
Randle returned to double figures vs. Arizona on Dec. 8, scoring 11 points with five assists. He just missed double figures vs. Western Carolina, finishing with nine points.
Randle scored 14 points vs. Miami (OH) on 6-10 shooting. He had 11 points in the win over Missouri and then notched 17 points against Loyola (MD), hitting 7-of-10 shots.
He was off to another strong start vs. Tennessee State on Dec. 30, with six points and six boards before suffering a mild concussion just before halftime.
Randle returned to the court vs. Ohio State on Jan. 3 and led the Illini in scoring with 14 points.
He had a strong outing vs. Indiana with nine points and 10 rebounds while playing all 40 minutes for the first time in his career.
Randle scored a career-high 19 points in the win over Michigan last Wednesday. He also recorded the second double-double of his career with 10 boards against the Wolverines.
He most recently tallied his second straight double-double, and third of his career Saturday at Purdue with 15 points and a season-high 11 rebounds, along with a career-high tying six assists.
Over the last three games, Randle is averaging 14.3 points and 10.3 rebounds.
Randle ranks second on the team in field goal percentage on the season, shooting 50.3 percent from the field (11th in Big Ten). He also is the team's second-leading rebounder with an average of 5.7 boards on the season (14th in Big Ten).

McCamey had the best game of his young career vs. Penn State, scoring a career-high 18 points on 7-12 shooting, including 4-6 from behind the arc. He scored Illinois' last eight points of the game, all in the final two minutes, on a layup and back-to-back 3-pointers.
McCamey had nine points, a season-high seven rebounds and four assists at Wisconsin. He then had six points and five assists without a turnover in a career-high 38 minutes at Indiana.
He had seven points and tied his career high with six assists in the win over Michigan last Wednesday.
McCamey is fifth on the Illini in scoring on the year (6.3 ppg) and ranks third on the team in assists (2.7 apg).
Brock on a Roll
He ranks third on the team in scoring in conference games (9.8 ppg) and is shooting 56.8 percent from the field (25-44). He also leads the league by shooting 75 percent (6-8) from behind the arc in conference play.
Brock is fourth on the Illini in scoring and rebounding on the season, averaging 8.2 points and 3.8 boards. He also leads the team in steals (1.3 spg).
Frazier Does It All
Despite standing 6-2, Frazier also is third on the team in rebounding with an average of 5.2 rpg. He currently ranks 16th in the Big Ten in rebounding and is the only point guard listed among the league's top 20 rebounders.
Frazier has twice grabbed a season-high nine rebounds, at Hawaii and vs. Duke, He also tallied eight boards vs. Oklahoma State, Penn State and Michigan, and seven at Maryland. He has been the UI's leading rebounder in five games this season.
Frazier has played through a number of injuries over the course of his career, including a strained quad, turf toe, sprained ankle, and sprained knee. His most recent mishap came during the Penn State game when he suffered strained cartilage in his rib cage that has caused him to miss practice since Jan. 7. He was scratched from the starting lineup vs. Wisconsin and was considered doubtful, but came off the bench to play 30 minutes despite the pain. Frazier had a season-high seven assists vs. the Badgers with just one turnover.
Frazier did not play at Indiana due to the injury but returned to action vs. Michigan last Wednesday, grabbing eight boards in 25 minutes off the bench.
Over the last four games in which he has played, Frazier has a 4.8 assist-to-turnover ratio (19 assists/4 turnovers). He ranks fourth in the league with a 2.3 assist-to-turnover ratio in conference play.

I have known the people at St. Vincent de Paul in Billings for seven years now. I have always known them to be caring and welcoming to all who come to them in need. They provide many types of assistance including food, rent and utility assistance, and representative payee services. They work with all kinds of people, from families and individuals who lose jobs and need to reach out for assistance, to men and women who are chronically homeless due to mental illness. They folks at SVDP have extraordinary patience and compassion and are known in Billings as the place to go when no one else, even other community service agencies, can help. St. Vincent de Paul also does a tremendous amount of work with very limited resources. I once asked an accountant I know who specializes in auditing nonprofits to look over SVDP's public financial statements, and he said that he has only seen a few organizations that produce as much "bang for the buck" as SVDP does. They operate a thrift store which covers all overhead for the charity office which means that 100% of all donations are distributed directly to those in need. I have given much time and money to St. Vincent de Paul over the years, always with complete confidence that it is being put to good use.

Moving to Dallas. Looking for new friends.
I have two beautiful little girls who are my heart. I will give you the luxury of reading this as the first sentence so I don't waste your time. I am ambitious when I need to be and can definitely separate from business to enjoy leisure activities. I am in no hurry to find a relationship. I won't be moving to Dallas till July 2014, so I have plenty of time to talk and get to know if someone's intrinsic and extrinsic values match each other and then compare them to mine, or in easier terms to understand, "see if we click". I just finished school and started my new job as a Registered Nurse. One of my favorite things in life is to go to a comedy club and laugh. I am a big fan of music and life shows. I would love to attend concerts regularly in Dallas. Looking for someone who wants to smile their way through life, but still has a since of responsibility. I like intelligent, positive, funny people with a side of spontaneity. Exercising together would be nice!!! I think it is very important to keep in contact with your friends and family and whoever makes you YOU!!! I want you to see the beauty in every soul in the world, and be compassionate enough to understand others feelings rather than your own and be humble enough to admit when your wrong. If your not 100% of what I am asking for that's ok, neither am I. But if you have a good heart and a good sense of humor then everything else seems tangible.

36 Lyn Refuel Station in Minneapolis saves big with LED lighting improvements
The Clean Energy Resources Teams (CERTs) is spearheading a statewide campaign,Light Up Your Station & Save, to help convenience stores reduce energy and maintenance costs and improve their businesses with LED lighting. We spoke with Lonnie McQuirter, owner of the 36 Lyn Refuel Station at 36th Street & Lyndale Avenue in south Minneapolis. Joel Haskard: Why did you decide to upgrade your canopy lights to LEDs?We have been familiar with LED technology for some time. However, price and financial incentives as well as the long-term reliability of LED lights became clear to us a couple years ago (2013). I was tired of pulling out our 24-foot ladder in the brisk winters to change out our old metal halide bulbs. The ballasts, which use even more energy beyond the bulb itself, also were a pain to deal with.Joel Haskard: Have you seen a reduction in your energy bills?Lonnie McQuirter: We have seen a significant reduction in our energy bills, despite us using our current lights for longer periods than we had with the old metal halide bulbs.

'We can't do this without you!' Mayor Hodges sets her agenda in State of the City address
"One Minneapolis" was the central theme in Minneapolis Mayor Betsy Hodges's State of the City Address on April 2, at the American Swedish Institute, where she discussed how the community working together can address challenges the city of Minneapolis is currently facing."The genius we have now, right here, will make us the great city of the 21st century if we are willing to do what it takes to make sure we leave none of that genius on the table," Hodges said.In her second State of the City Address, Hodges made a call-to-action to encourage community leaders to become graduation coaches for young men. She wants to narrow the gap between low-income and middle class families through collective bargaining in the private sector. She wants to raise the minimum wage and launch the Minneapolis Climate Champs Challenge, which will provide steps and tips as to how citizens in Minneapolis can help stop climate change."Minneapolis, the question before us now is how much genius are we going to leave on the table?" Hodges asked.Hodges set her sights on early education, bridging the divide when it comes to income inequality and addresses climate change.Education In order to efficiently use the genius of people in the community, Hodges said it starts when a child in the community is young. When it comes to youth development, Hodges cited the fact that 80% of a person's brain is developed by the age of 3."What we do for our kids early on matters," Hodges said.The city will budget $1 million for housing so many children who are low-income, could have stable living conditions. She said the focus on child development is to make sure they are ready for the workforce; however, she also wants them to be engaged in their community."We need our kids to be more than workforce ready, we needs kids who are ready to build one Minneapolis.

In the sugar maple grove, things are sweeter than ever
Sugarbushing begins in February when the snow is still on the ground and the sap in the sugar maple trees begins to rise. At the the Wozupi Tribal Gardens' grove in Prior Lake, that still means it's time to get to work. But, it no longer means pulling out the metal taps, the stainless steel buckets and the kettles."Buckets are for hobbyists," said Rebecca Yoshino, the director of the Wozupi Tribal Gardens and the maple syrup operation for the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community. "The bucket system is very labor intensive. You had to put the buckets up and take them down every year. Continue Reading
MN House Coal Caucus votes to keep bill about air pollution away from environment committee
It's the sort of post-moronic (and moneyed) politics Bluestem has come to expect from Speaker Daudt's majority, foreshadowed by the leader's removal of "Energy" from the Environmental and Natural Resources committee to team it up with "Jobs."In Tuesday's floor session, Minnesota House Environment and Natural Resources minority lead Rick Hansen ( DFL-South St. Paul) moved to have HF333 pulled from the House Ways and Means Committee and sent to the Environment Committee.HF333, a bill that would require legislative approval of a state plan to comply with federal regulations regarding emissions from existing power plants, would be paid for by the state's environmental fund. Implementing the lanuage would be be part of work of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA). The "federal regulations" about air emissions is part of the implementation of the federal Clean Air Act.Hansen also noted that plans for regulating power plant emissions are part of addressing climate change, another concern tasked to the Environment Committee.In short, this bill has everything to do with environmental policy and funding. Bill author, Becker Republican Jim Newberger, opposed Hansen's motion–prompting a remarkable line of questioning from Rep. Ryan Winkler (DFL-Golden Valley).Newberger: . Continue Reading
For lasting climate-change reform, focus on consumption
Last month, MinnPost's Ron Meador outlined climate change's likely impact on Minnesota over the course of the coming century. Meador's article, and the study to which it referred, adds a sobering close-to-home detail to our collective knowledge about the risks associated with climate change.Meador's article, and others like it, should spur us to action. To date, governments and others at national and local levels have offered a variety of fix-it plans. These plans include increasing efficiency standards of cars, moving to renewable energy sources, designing carbon capture models, geoengineering, and implementation of new "green" construction standards, among other related suggestions.Markedly absent in mainstream conversations are suggestions that Americans simply consume less. Ideas that do circulate about lifestyle change tend to be either "back to the land" proposals or framed in the language of "giving people options": bicycle lanes give people the option to get out of their cars; condos provide snazzy options for young people and empty nesters.

Overview of the Collection
Historical Note
Frederick & Nelson was one of Seattle's foremost department stores and was considered by many to be a Seattle institution. Founded by partners D.E. Frederick and Nels Nelson in 1890 as a second hand furniture store on Seattle's Front Street, the store expanded steadily in its early years, starting with the sale of new furniture after the acquisition of the Queen City Furniture Co. in 1891. Early on, the store provided home delivery service, using its fleet of horse drawn delivery wagons. Among the store's early customers were the local Native Americans, prospectors heading to the Yukon and the new hotels which had sprung up to accommodate the prospectors.
The store moved into the Rialto building at 2nd and Madison in 1897; the business gradually developed into a department store under the partners' philosophy that their store should provide whatever merchandise their customers ask for. By 1906, Frederick & Nelson had annexed more space in the Rialto building, opened its first tearoom and introduced ready-to-wear men's and women's fashions, a novel alternative to fine clothing made-to-order.
Founder Nels Nelson fell ill and died on a New York bound steamer in 1907. Under the leadership of D.E. Frederick, Frederick & Nelson continued to grow, and by 1914, D.E. decided to build a six-story store at 5th Avenue and Pine Street. Though detractors referred to the decision to build outside of the city's retail district as "Frederick's folly," the store, designed by architect John Graham, was an instant success. The new store included a tearoom, beauty salon, post office, auditorium, nursery and a fully equipped medical facility. The store also hosted many events, such as the weekly fashion shows staged each Wednesday in the tearoom.
In 1929, at age 69, D.E. Frederick decided to retire, selling the store to Marshall Field & Co. for six million dollars. In spite of the initial concern of its customers about Frederick & Nelson becoming part of a vast retail system, the store continued to grow both as a business and as a Seattle tradition. Marshall Fields executive William Street was hired to run Frederick & Nelson in 1938, and he guided the store through its successful period from the recovery after the Great Depression, through the World War II period, the post-war boom and the store expansion and growth of the 1950s. For example, Frederick & Nelson became involved in the war effort in the 1940s, opening a temporary branch store on the grounds of the Boeing's No. 2 plant and winning a special merit award for its promotion of war bonds and stamps in the war loan drive. Later, as people began moving to the suburbs after the war, the first of the suburban branches opened in the Bellevue Shopping Square in 1946. After a major renovation, the flagship Seattle store reopened with 10 floors above ground and 12 shopping levels.
Over the years, Frederick & Nelson had supported the local community, for example by promoting the Seattle Symphony with special display windows and its black tie "Symphoneve" benefits. Its auditorium was also used by art groups as well as by civic organizations.
Though the tradition of in-store Christmas caroling by staff began as early as1918, the store tradition of the Santa Claus window at 6th and Pine began in 1943, with children posing with Santa for a holiday photograph.
Business eventually began to decline as discount retailers attracted customers and increasing control by the Marshall Fields inhibited local decision-making. In 1982, Batus, Inc. bought Marshall Fields & Co. and Frederick & Nelson became part of Batus' retail division. Continuing to lose money, Frederick & Nelson was sold in 1989 to local investors who sought to restore the store's reputation. Losses continued to mount, however, and the store filed for bankruptcy in 1991, finally closing its doors on May 31, 1992. The building was sold to Nordstrom, which reopened the building as its flagship store in 1998.
Content Description
The collection is comprised of textual materials, photographs, scrapbooks and audio-visual materials from the Frederick & Nelson department store, primarily the Seattle store. The bulk of the collection seems to have originated from the Sales Promotion department, though the collection also includes materials from the Human Resources and Training departments, Food Service department, and Display and Sign department.
Sales Promotion materials include catalogs and mailers, and files about special events at the store such as autograph parties, fashion shows and other promotional events. This series also contains historical materials about the store which seem to have been collected for use in promotional and anniversary publications over the years, and specifically for use in the Frederick & Nelson centennial book "More than a Store" by Robert Specter. These materials include clippings, memos and ephemera such as menus and event programs.
Food service materials include a collection of menus from the various Frederick & Nelson eating establishments, such as the Tea Room and the Men's Grill. Human Resources materials include over 70 years of the staff newsletter "Between Ourselves", and training manuals and sales procedure guides, which illustrate the detailed attention that Frederick & Nelson paid to customer relations.
The Photographs series parallels the textual materials, containing photographs of in-store events such as book signings and fashion shows, and store anniversary events. Historical photos include images of store founders D.E. Frederick and Nels Nelson, and store executives, managers and staff over the years. Other photographs document the early Frederick & Nelson store, including the store in the Rialto building, and horse drawn delivery carts and delivery trucks from the early 1900s. Later store photos document the downtown Seattle flagship store as well as the several branch stores, including store openings and the remodel of the Seattle store in the early 1950s. The photographs also document interior store displays and window displays between 1939 and 1977, including the annual Christmas display and Santa Claus windows, and special displays such as the many war bonds promotional displays of the mid-1940s.
Audio-visual materials include recordings of radio and television ads, videotapes of fashion shows and films of Uncle Mistletoe puppet shows at the store in the 1960s.

Cheryl Cort
Policy Director
202.675.0016 ext. 122
Our Policy Director, Cheryl leads our efforts in DC and Maryland.

Alex can handle all of these things and a few dozen more because he has an extensive background in campaign management, communications outreach, and organization building. He's managed a whole mess of issue-oriented and political campaigns including grassroots operations, and spent time as a direct mail consultant.

She took advantage of working at an international organization and chose to live abroad, spending time in both Quito and Mexico City, where she relished zipping through the growing cities' traffic on their Bus Rapid Transit systems. She's now eager to empower communities in the DC region to shape a sustainable and equitable transportation future.

© Copyright 2015 Albany Herald
ATLANTA — The NBA trade deadline is today, and the Hawks continue to look for ways to improve a roster hit with two season-ending injuries. Whether general manager Danny Ferry pulls off a major deal before the deadline remains to be seen, but there could be some tinkering to the current group.
The Hawks could use help at center, shooting guard and small forward.
"As we continue to build our identity, we will look to be strategic as we examine our roster and the potential ways we can build greater depth within our system," Ferry said. "This time of year, everybody is having conversations. Ultimately, any move we would consider would have to effectively benefit our short and long term interests."
The Hawks, on a six-game losing streak entering Wednesday's game vs. Washington, are 9-13 since the loss of two-time All-Star center Al Horford following surgery to repair a torn right pectoral muscle. They have slipped from third to fifth in the Eastern Conference standings with 29 games remaining in the regular season.
The Hawks seemed to have found a short-term fix with the play of Pero Antic at center. However, he has missed the past three weeks with a stress fracture of the right ankle. He is getting close to a return but there is still no timetable for when he might suit up again. The third option at starting center, Gustavo Ayon, hasn't played a fourth-quarter minute in four of the past five games.
The Hawks also lost guard John Jenkins to lower back surgery. The 2012 first-round pick played sparingly this season due to the injury. Jenkins' loss leaves the Hawks with a shooting guard spot available. The Hawks have brought guard Jared Cunningham up from the NBA Development League for short stints four times this season. His future may be as a point guard as that is where he has been playing with the Bakersfield (Calif.) Jam. Cunningham, obtained in a draft-day trade last year, is likely not in the Hawks' long-term plans after they declined to pick up his third-year option.
There is also a decision to be made at small forward with Cartier Martin. His second 10-day contract expires today. Per NBA rules, the Hawks are not allowed to sign Martin to another 10-day contract. If they wish to retain him at the conclusion of his current contract they'd have to sign him for at least the rest of the season. The Hawks waived Martin after 25 games to start the season before his contract became guaranteed. His absence would create a need for another wing defender.
Without Martin, the Hawks would have 12 players.
The Hawks do have draft picks that could be part of a trade. This year's first-round pick includes the right to swap it with the Nets should their pick end up being higher. The 2014 NBA draft is considered to have several impact players available. The same scenario exists for 2015.
Last season Ferry made two moves at the trade deadline. The Hawks acquired Dahntay Jones from the Mavericks for Anthony Morrow. They also acquired Jeremy Tyler from the Warriors for future draft considerations. Neither remain on the roster.
