What is Behind the Foreign Public Charity Equivalence Affidavit?
By Betsy Buchalter Adler and Ingrid P. Mittermaier, Silk, Adler and Colvin
Legal Dimensions of International Grantmaking, Council on Foundations
Several years ago, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) issued a ruling known as Revenue Procedure 92-94 to allow private foundations to rely on an affidavit of the grantee. This article provides a handy reference to help private foundations making the foreign charity equivalence determination to explain the affidavit to potential grantees.

Working with Intermediaries: Global Grant Making through Partner Organizations
Making grants through an intermediary is often the simplest way to fund internationally, and sometimes the most effective. GrantCraft asked a handful of experienced grant makers and experts about the keys to finding, working with, and getting the most from international intermediaries. How does the relationship between donor and intermediary really work?

World Bank Community Foundation Initiative Evaluation Report
Yumi Sera and Dorothy Reynolds
International Programs, Council on Foundations
The Community Foundation Initiative (CFI), a collaboration between the World Bank and the Council on Foundations from 2002 to 2008, grew out of a dialogue between the World Bank and the Council's International Committee. The CFI sought to build knowledge and interest about community foundations within the World Bank. The initiative was supported by the Ford Foundation, the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation and the World Bank with an advisory committee coordinated by the Council. A community foundation specialist was hired by the Bank and, for the past five years, has worked to raise awareness about the community foundation concept among senior Bank staff. Part of the Bank's learning has come through the practical experience of funding a few pilot community foundation projects in selected developing countries. An evaluation of the CFI was conducted earlier this year for the Council, the World Bank, Ford and Mott

Tips and tricks for easy Perl programming in Vim
The Vim editor has any number of tricks for helping you avoid unnecessary typing. In this month's article, we look at some effort-saving Vim techniques for Perl hackers.
There is probably no other decision in a programmer's life that is so important and so irrevocable as their choice of an editor. Once you opt for Vi or Emacs, you will tend to stick to your guns and attempt to coax the last ounce of performance out of your favorite tool. Once you decide on an editor, it is better to learn as much as you can about it. More effective use of an editor not only reduces the danger of Carpal tunnel syndrome, but also helps you code far more quickly and with fewer typos. The Vim (Vi Improved) editor has a number of advantages over its venerable predecessor Vi. Over the years, Vim has been extended dramatically to support hard core programmers; it is highly configurable and plug-in extensible – in fact, Vim can be tailored to suit almost anyone's taste or style of working.

I apoligize for not responding earlier. I apprecate your response and offer these as suggestions. Countrygent147 as to drilling a hole to allow to drain, I would not recommend. If there is not alot of water coming in, perhaps cover all the vents, overboards, or other openings with cloth. I have put in my Westerly years ago after doing this, a can of the chemical that condenses water. But every three weeks, it needs to be dumped. Here is a article that night be of interest

Landlocked Sailor Looking For A Salt Breeze
I had to cut out the area of the where the mast sits. On the deck I prefab a stainless steel plate for the tabernacle to to be bolted to thru below deck. Inside, I cut out a five by five, therabouts, area and glassed using west and fiberglass mat. Of course I removed and replaced the port bulkhead which made the work easier. I then have another stainless steel plate for the inside. When done there will be four stainless bolts to tie the two plates and four to tie the tabernacle. There is no core on my boat's deck, which you need to check on yours.
We are located 45 miles north of Greensboro NC in Virginia. 4.8 hours from my sisters boat in VA Beach and 5.2 hours from favorite marina in Deltaville VA. When I get this boat done, plan to take to Buggs Island Lake (Kerr) and work out the bugs. Then most likely take to VABeach to my sister dock.
When I go, let it be by boat, with a steady breeze on the Chesapeake with a bottle of 7-up, a bag of ice, a plastic cup, and a box of wine

New year can get in the way of understanding what is happening on financial markets. Just because humans measure the year in 12 month tranches, it does not necessarily follow that markets do. Consider world stocks, for example. MSCI's all-country world stock index is often cited as having fallen 43.5 percent in 2008. In fact, long-term investors' losses were a lot worse. From an all-time high on November 1, 2007, to a low on November 28, 2008, the index fell 56.2 percent.

What a web we've woven
Thanks are due to the World Economic Forum for clearly explaining the interlinked web of misery currently facing the world. Make what you will of the details in the graphic below – and if you can, please do let us know! — but the overall impact really does spell it all out.
from Africa News blog:
Forgiveness in paradise?
If you lived on an archipelago that defined paradise with palm-fringed white sand beaches and emerald green waters, you would expect a relaxed, lazy pace of life.
A lot of witches but no more crises?
As financial markets wrap up the final full trading week of 2008, investors are contending with "quadruple witchings", that is the day on which stock index futures, stock index options, stock options and single stock futures all expire.
No black tulip bulbs, no black swans
The world has experienced many crises in the past.
In 1636, during the Dutch Tulip Bulb Bubble, the quest for a perfect black bulb had inflated the price of a black bulb by many hundreds. In a different crisis in 1866, a London wholesale bank Overend, Gurney & Co collapsed with a massive debt, after expanding its investment portfolio beyond its means.

Bankers – Ever thought about working for Big Pharma?

Recession is no secret
Mike Trudel, U.S.-based managing director and senior product specialist at BlackRock, has become convinced the economic recession really has arrived.
Not going back to platform days
Deflation seems to have replaced inflation as the public enemy No.1 these days.
This might give relief to quite a number of people, including those who thought the resurgence of inflation could take us back to the 1970s.
The Wrong Lesson
Investors learned the wrong lesson from the dotcom bubble, and ended up blowing another.
Carry on falling

Live music review: Spoon shines at sold-out KGSR 24th anniversary show
Indie rockers Spoon let music fans know guitar rock is still relevant despite media claims to the contrary last Friday at their sold-out KGSR 24th Anniversary show at ACL Live. The tour kick-off performance highlighted a several songs from their acclaimed recent release, They Want My Soul. It is no surprise Spoon is still a leading Austin rock band. What is surprising is the band appears to have hit a new peak 20 years into their career when most bands are playing album anniversary shows. Instead, Britt Daniel and company put out what may be their best... Continue reading at axs.com

Live music review: The Black Keys powered through ACL TV taping Monday

Traditionally bands recording an episode of the Austin City Limits (ACL TV) televison show leave the stage near the end of the performance and return for an encore. The Black Keys intended to do the same but when the set came to a close Monday night band leader, Dan Auerbach shrugged his shoulders and told the crowd they were going to keep going. As if the momentum from the rollicking performance kept the Akron garage rockers from taking a break. Instead the band powered through a... Continue reading at axs.com

Mojo Nixon celebrated 10 years of SiriusXM Outlaw Country gig with guest artists
Retired psychobilly singer, Mojo Nixon celebrated 10 years of being at the helm of the SiriusXM Outlaw Country satellite radio show Thursday with a special appearance in Austin. Broadcast from a makeshift radio control room at ACL Live, Nixon's tenth anniversary party show was joined by Austin acts Joe Ely, Dale Watson, Paula Nelson, Justin Townes Earle, Jessie Dayton, Bruce Robison, Kelly Willis and Rosie Flores among others.
Nixon is known for his bawdy humor and bombastic personality on air. The man who once had a hit with Debbie Gibson is Pregnant with My Two-Headed Love Child is prone to loud fits of laughter, off-color jokes and signing off each segment of the show yelling... Continue reading at axs.com

Fun Fun Fun Fest is less than 48 hours away. We know festival-goers are planning
their schedules and plotting their musical attack and we want to help. While it is easy
to figure out headlining acts to see, finding the hidden gems in the lineup can be a
guessing game. That is why we are here recommending six buzz bands
(two for each day of FFF Fest) to put on your list this weekend. If you are watching at
home, check out these bands on YouTube and your favorite streaming service. You'll
likely add them to your playlists and pine for the opportunity to see these acts when they
roll through your town.

Live music review: Duran Duran performs exclusive set for F1 Grand Prix Saturday
the eve of the Circuit of the Americas (COTA) Grand Prix race in Austin Sunday, legendary '80s rockers, Duran Duran performed an exclusive set at ACL Live at the Moody Theater for race fans. The VIP-style event featured open bars, cocktail tables and buffets of food offerings. The two-time Grammy winners ran through a hit-filled 90-minute set while shrieking female fans voiced their excitement at seeing the Englishmen in the flesh.
While the band rests largely on the laurels of their first five albums (all released in the '80s), Duran Duran have admirably continued to record new albums releasing their 13th studio album, All You Need is Now in 2011 when they could have easily slid into being a retro-act like so many other aging bands. Also laudable was the absence of backing tracks which the synth-heavy act could have easily employed without complaint from their rabid fanbase. Instead, with ...Continue reading at Axs.com

Investing time in your child is so imporant. Just think that your little one is your full time job. I love watching my little guys grow and learn. We are always going and that makes the day go by so quickly.

Anyone else feel nervous or disoriented when they stopped working outside the home?
I went back to work this week after my maternity leave ended, it just felt wrong and like too much too soon. So I quit yesterday and I am pretty sure that it was the right decision, but it feels weird and scary to be unemployed and not really know if/when I'll ever join the working world again.

Post ride tips on Baja

Just passing thru
Joined: Jul 2005

From the border you can make San Felipe in a day without problems. I've done this a couple times and I goof around a lot.
I overnighted at Rancho El Coyote without a reservation. Very cool place, Highly recommended, especially with a sweety. It was $60US with two meals. This is on the road into the National Park, south of Ensenada. About 50-60 mi of twisty pavement into the park. When I was there, no motos were allowed, but the ride was still worth it. Not for acrophobs. 1000ft cliffs at the fog line. Sandy corners, sluffed road edges. Stunning scenery. Melling Ranch and El Coyote (part of Melling) are on the road in. This was a day to the border, for me. You can see the spot in my Baja ride report, in my sig.
Catavina to the Park was a days ride. From the Park to a couple hours across the border was a day.
I took it really slow on the washboards around Coco's Corner. I enjoyed the people and spent three days from Coco's to San Felipe.
Don't ride at night is a good rule, although I have done it at very reduced speeds (30mph) Very risky. Don't drink the water. Don't camp on unoccupied/unknown beaches. Drug trafficing on the east side of Baja where the road gets close to the ocean.
If you get to San Ignacio, Nano Fongs was a nice little motel. Cheap and really great food. At the intersection to the town plaza, off of hwy 1.
I like staying at the small motels and renting palapas on the beaches.
Gas stations are far apart on hwy 1, but barrel gas at Catavina and the turn into Bay of LA.
You will have a great time. I wish I was going south.
The gate guard glares at me. "It's after curfew." He looks me up and down, "What do you think you are, some kind of ****** tourist?" ..Phu Loi 1969

Before the Warring States era came to a close, legend has it that Yukimura Sanada has been gathering ten warriors known as Sanada's Brave 10, who have the power to change history.

Brave 10 is based on a manga which is loosely based on the Sengoku period. One of the various fables of that era was the Sanada Ten, a team of powerful warriors who were formed by Sanada Yukimura in his efforts to rule supreme. The premise is the formation of the team and is shown primarily through the eyes of Saizo.
I can't say the setting and the premise are that interesting. They are in fact... read more
Pretty decent anime for a reverse harem theme, Alot of hot bishounens :) so girls are going to love it. Entertaining action scenes, the characters are the best part. They all have their own personality, and very well drawn. The Main girl Isanami shes kind of annoying but not to bad. Their are other female characters in the anime, my favorite was Ana. She reminded me of someone from Dead or Alive video game... read more

12.08.06 - By Matt Stein: In a fight that many people figured he'd lose, Oleg Maskaev (33-5, 26 KOs) stopped Hasim Rahman in the 12th round, shocking many people in the process, to snatch the WBC heavyweight title on Saturday night, at the Tomas & Mack center in Las Vegas, Nevada. The first half of the fight saw Rahman (41-6-2, 33 KOs) dominating, and controlling the fight with his long left jab and strong right hand. On several occasions, Rahman seemed to hurt Maskaev, most notably in the 4th round, when Maskaev seemed weak-legged after getting tagged, though Rahman wasn't able to follow up with anything meaningful with which to finish it..
In the meantime, despite losing many of the earlier rounds, Maskaev would from time to time, land powerful right hands, and punishing left hooks, that seemed to have a withering effect on Rahman, for he seemed to be breaking down under the force of the blows, particularly in the later rounds, when he was getting hit flush, taking the full impact of the punch.
However, Maskaev came back strong in the 10th and 11th, outworking Rahman, who appeared to be both hurt and tired. In the final round, as soon as the round started, it was immediately clear Maskaev was putting incredible power into his punches, as if he were fighting for his life, for he seemed to be a completely different fighter than he was earlier. After a brief exchange in the opening minute, Maskaev landed a devastating right hand that crashed off the side of Rahman's jaw, knocking him down to the canvas. He immediately got up, but was then snowed under by storm of unanswered punches by Maskaev, at which point the referee stepped in and stopped the bout at the 2:17 mark, awarding the victory to Maskaev.
With this victory, Maskaev has a lot of options, since there could be a potential fight with Wladimir Klitschko, the IBF heavyweight champion, or Sergui Liakhovich, the WBO champion, or even Nikolay Valuev, the WBA champion. In any potential matchup, it spells big money for the 37-year-old Maskaev, who clearly deserves it after all this time.
One aggravation, at least for me, was the referee, Jay Nady, who seemed to step in continously in the fight to warn Maskaev for holding, despite the fact that much of the holding was being done by Rahman. In any case, Nady seemed to get in the way of a lot of the action, at least until the late going, when he finally backed off and let the fighters go it, thankfully.

How do you remove waterproof/long-wearing makeup? Share your favorite products/techniques!
I love shu uemura's cleansing oil (the orange one), but most cleansing oils seem to do really well (Bobbi Brown, DHC, MAC) at breaking down long-wearing or waterproof makeup. If I have a lot of heavy eye makeup or eyeliner on, I use Lancome's Bi-Facil!

Rippling movements by the gifted Mohiniyattom dancer Gopika Varma and her students of the Dasyam School, endowed 'Ayonija Pancha Kanya' with an idyllic air.
The production was a compilation of strategic episodes from the lives of the five women from Hindu mythology -- Sita, Ahalya, Tara, Mandodari and Draupadi. Stories from the Ramayana and the Mahabharata were encapsulated to spotlight the female perspective. Without encroaching on the consciousness, the stories shifted to highlight the anguish faced by the women.
The lyric by C. P. Unnikrishnan with music inputs by M. S. Sukhi, Kavalam Narayana Panikker, Arun Gopinath and Kalamandalam Vinod provided a substantial context to the dancers' efforts. Vocal music by Arun Gopinath and Vinod, nattuvangam by Balakrishnana, mridangam by M. S. Sukhi and edakka by Nanda Kumar were other highlights.
Coordinated efforts by the dancers in introducing the story for each section enlivened the production while Gopika's dancing was rich in emotional content. The particular use of the eyes and the unified evolvement of the face, body and hands for recounting each heroine's view made for charming viewing.
The quick change of colours and jewellery accessories (that remained perfect) gave a clue to the individual version of the five personalities -- Sita's golden hues, Mandodari's green, Ahalya's pink and so on, could be enjoyed not merely for variety but also for the intricacies.
Gopika's Sita was shown as a woman loyal to Rama, Mandodari as the someone who questions Ravana and comforts Sita, and Ahalya as the 'atisundara' who has to crush her feelings in a cursed existence. Tara though dealt with in relative brevity, also brought out the feeling of being given away to another.
The final episode of Draupadi, in first person narrative in Dwijavanthi, was a powerful performance where experience and intuition shared space. The first entry depicted Draupadi's wail over the fallen in war, and the next action showed her fulfilling the vow with gusto. "Who am I? The queen who was wed to five princes; who made a terrible vow or the woman who suffered so much?" – these were poignant questions that painted five varied portraits.
Compared to the other episodes, the narration of Sita took up more time where the dancing glided from one scene to another. The first meeting with Rama and ensuing changes were portrayed like an abridged version of the Ramayana and one could see the crucial role played by Sita in shaping the various twists and turn in the story.

The Plant Short-Chain Dehydrogenase (SDR) superfamily: genome-wide inventory and diversification patterns

BMC Plant Biology 2012, 12:219 doi:10.1186/1471-2229-12-219Published: 20 November 2012
Short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDRs) form one of the largest and oldest NAD(P)(H) dependent oxidoreductase families. Despite a conserved 'Rossmann-fold' structure, members of the SDR superfamily exhibit low sequence similarities, which constituted a bottleneck in terms of identification. Recent classification methods, relying on hidden-Markov models (HMMs), improved identification and enabled the construction of a nomenclature. However, functional annotations of plant SDRs remain scarce.
Wide-scale analyses were performed on ten plant genomes. The combination of hidden Markov model (HMM) based analyses and similarity searches led to the construction of an exhaustive inventory of plant SDR. With 68 to 315 members found in each analysed genome, the inventory confirmed the over-representation of SDRs in plants compared to animals, fungi and prokaryotes. The plant SDRs were first classified into three major types — 'classical', 'extended' and 'divergent' — but a minority (10% of the predicted SDRs) could not be classified into these general types ('unknown' or 'atypical' types). In a second step, we could categorize the vast majority of land plant SDRs into a set of 49 families. Out of these 49 families, 35 appeared early during evolution since they are commonly found through all the Green Lineage. Yet, some SDR families — tropinone reductase-like proteins (SDR65C), 'ABA2-like'-NAD dehydrogenase (SDR110C), 'salutaridine/menthone-reductase-like' proteins (SDR114C), 'dihydroflavonol 4-reductase'-like proteins (SDR108E) and 'isoflavone-reductase-like' (SDR460A) proteins — have undergone significant functional diversification within vascular plants since they diverged from Bryophytes. Interestingly, these diversified families are either involved in the secondary metabolism routes (terpenoids, alkaloids, phenolics) or participate in developmental processes (hormone biosynthesis or catabolism, flower development), in opposition to SDR families involved in primary metabolism which are poorly diversified.
The application of HMMs to plant genomes enabled us to identify 49 families that encompass all Angiosperms ('higher plants') SDRs, each family being sufficiently conserved to enable simpler analyses based only on overall sequence similarity. The multiplicity of SDRs in plant kingdom is mainly explained by the diversification of large families involved in different secondary metabolism pathways, suggesting that the chemical diversification that accompanied the emergence of vascular plants acted as a driving force for SDR evolution.

Online cash transfers, hiding the money in bouquets and dropping off officers at desolate places after transactions are some of the innovative ways police officers take bribes, the Anti Corruption Bureau (ACB) found out. With ACB increasing the number of traps, police officials are devising new ways to avoid getting caught. According to officials, in kind bribes are getting fancier and darker by the day. While alcohol, gadgets, property and gold are sought after, in a one-of-a-kind case, an officer demanded the complainant to either give him Rs 5 lakhs or allow him to spend a night with his wife.
Vishwas Nangre Patil, additional commissioner of police, ACB, said, "Corrupt officers want to be as discreet as possible. They want to go beyond handing over the money directly in their home or office as it involves a lot of risk." Common practice is is to make victims keep cash in a cupboard or bag or get middlemen to collect the money. However, of late, cash is hid in flowers bouquets, towels and even inside files and gift boxes, etc. "Officers also demand that money should be given to photocopy shopkeepers and tea stall vendors who are hand-in-glove with them. Some officers have even asked for cheque transactions and online transfers for convenience. Tech-savvy cops want money to be transferred online through NEFT, RTGS, etc," said Patil.
Many a times, the officers change the location, where the bribe exchanged, every half hour to confuse the victim. This is done till the last minute to avoid any risk. "Even after the location is confirmed, the victim, who has already arrived at the agreed location gets a call to come to another place which is a few miles away. This way, the spot is changed three to four times to ensure safety. In some cases, the officer takes the victim for a drive in his car or bike and once the money is handed over, he is dropped off an isolated location. Once a victim was dropped off in a dense forest after he handed over the bribe and he was stuck there for hours," added another officer. The officer mentioned that crowded places such as railway stations, markets and malls are officers' favourites as they can escape in the crowd.
However, ACB officials feel that no amount of secrecy can help the corrupt officers. "We have officers and informers stationed everywhere and we do not take any complaints lightly. We want more people to come forward and register complaints," added Patil. The ACB, in a record-breaking feat has registered 601 traps in the first six months of 2014 as compared to 293 in the corresponding period of last year, which is a 105 per cent increase.

Red tape delayed federal network fixes to Heartbleed vulnerability by several days
DHS says it found out about the Heartbleed vulnerability at the same time everyone else did. But unlike most other organizations, it had to wade through layers of legal negotiations before it could help federal agencies fix the cyber vulnerability in their own systems.

Bio and Links
I'm a veteran of the U.S. Army.
In my free time, I'm a military researcher / historian whose key area of interest is in the World War II and Korean War eras. However, my overall, never-ending goal is to try to acknowledge the service of all our country's warriors.
In an effort to accomplish this goal, I created the Military Hall of Honor to honor all veterans, living and deceased, and use it along with FindaGrave. Membership is free and available to all who wish to contribute military records, bios, photos, honor the military with tributes, leave remembrances, etc.

Sure, you may use that. Please credit it to A. E. Horan. Thank you for your consideration in checking with me.
My mother grew up with Earle Sullivan and was devastated by his death, as was the entire neighborhood. I still have the original newspaper obituary and article about him.
Ironically, my mother is buried about 20 rows above the Sullivans in Section 34 at Arlington.
Thank you.

Combine Records
Mr. Lewis, If possible, I would appreciate it if we could combine our records for my brother Walter Fraiser (Buddy) Barnes #94996064. Another contributor suggested we might combine these two and make the memorial even more spectacular. I have been trying to get all of my family members under my name so that our future generations will be able to access the "history" easily. I'm not sure how this is done, but really like the information you had as well. It is a wonderful service you are doing. Thank you.
