Siegfried Sassoon (1886-1967), Poet and prose writer
Siegfried Loraine Sassoon
Sitter in 84 portraits
Sassoon was an English poet and prose-writer. Enlisted in the Sussex Yeomanry (1914) and commissioned into the Royal Welch Fusiliers (1915), Sassoon won an MC in 1916. He was invalided home in 1917 and wrote a public protest against the War. He published war poems The Old Huntsman (1917) and Counter-Attack (1918) and in 1920 read his anti-war poems on a lecture tour in America. During the inter-war years he brought out further volumes of poetry and during the Second World War published an autobiographical trilogy of war memoirs.

Jerry LawlerJerry O'Neil Lawler
- Birthdate: 11/29/1949 (age 65)
- Height: 6'0"
- Weight: 243 Ib
Jerry Lawler serves as the play-by-play comment...
CNN contacted Jerry "The King" Lawler for his thoughts on the matter.
He said: "I would like nothing better than to know that Andy was still alive and been with us all this time. But like anybody else, I really don't know any more than what I've heard. It could be a great hoax in his honor, dreamed up by his friend Bob Zamuda and his brother, Michael. That would be something that would be in keeping with Andy's tradition, but who's to say. It could really be legit."
If he were actually alive, and not a hoax as websites like Snopes claim, then he would be 64 years old. If it's a publicity stunt, then it has worked as several mainstream outlets have picked up the story. Kaufman died in 1984 at the age of 35 due to lung cancer .... or so they say!
He is famous in wrestling for his run in Memphis with Lawler that included a moment on Late Night with David Letterman on NBC.

- Shopping Bag ( 0 items )
From the Publisher"Thoroughly researched and richly informative....A valuable appraisal."
- Booklist
"A radically revisionist account of America's policy in Vietnam during the years before combat troops were introduced. Based largely on archival sources and Communist histories of the war, this highly provocative work attacks virtually every aspect of what Moyar calls the 'orthodox' historical interpretations of the war."
- Library Journal
"This first installment in a two-volume project may well become the preeminent work in [revisionist history]…Moyar, who has strong credentials (a Cambridge PhD), has an engaging writing style and supports his arguments with dispassionate research… Highly recommended." - Choice
"A revisionist history that challenges the notion that U.S. involvement in Vietnam was misguided; defends the validity of the domino theory and disputes the notion that Ho Chi Minh was, at heart, a nationalist who would eventually turn against his Communist Chinese allies."
- Chronicle of Higher Education
"...this is an important book, a history that serves as a mirror on the present."
- Wall Street Journal
"The book is meticulously documented; it draws on the substantial U.S. documentary record of the war, bringing fresh perspectives to familiar evidence. Moyar augments and supports his analysis with extensive use of North Vietnamese archival material, most of which was unavailable to the orthodox historians of the 1970s and 80s. In sum, Triumph Forsaken is an important book...."
- National Review
"A brilliant young scholar with a Cambridge doctorate who is currently teaching at the Marine Corps University in Quantico, Moyar is representative of a small but increasingly influential revisionist school that rejects the fundamental orthodox premise that America's involvement in Vietnam was wrongheaded and unjust.... No review can do full justice to this critically important book. Triumph Forsaken is meticulously documented and bold in its interpretation of the record. Even orthodox historians will be forced to acknowledge the magnitude of Moyar's scholarly achievement. It should, at the least, reopen the debate about America's Vietnam enterprise, reminding us that countries are not destined to win or lose wars. Victory or defeat depends on decisions actually made and strategies actually implemented."
- Weekly Standard, Mackubin Thomas Owens
"Orthodox Vietnam historians, Moyar writes, tend to dismiss revisionists as politically motivated, since the issues surrounding the war, in their view, have long since been settled… Triumph Forsaken throws down a mighty challenge to orthodox historians; they should engage Moyar instead of ignoring him. As they ought to know, truth is its own reward, but it can also be damn practical."
- The American Spectator, Paul Beston
"...impressive and scrupulously researched revisionist history....Moyar's controversial investigation will be challenged by many of the well-respected scholars he confronts in his authoritative account, which elevates the arguments of Vietnam War revisionists to a higher, more respected, level."
- ForeWord
"...[Moyar] has done extensive and careful research in newly available primary sources such as North Vietnamese histories of the conflict. The result is a valuable revisionist study that rejects much of the conventional wisdom about our early involvement in the conflict."
- New York Sun, Guenter Lewy
"[Moyar's] is a complex and well-written account that set the bar high for scholarship. It is essential reading for anyone wanting a fresh understanding of one of America's longest and misunderstood conflicts."
- Marine Corp Gazette
"Moyar's work is an excellent modern read on the Viet-Nam War."
- Military
"The well-researched analysis of policies runs deep, but there's also military analysis and accounts of important military action. This is revisionist history at its best."
-Christian Nelson, VietNow
"Moyar is a fine writer and switches from broad strategic and geopolitical issues to heart-gripping accounts of key military actions…Today's military leaders and policy-makers would do well to ponder this book."
- Leatherneck
"The most noteworthy aspect of Triumph Forsaken is surely the depth and range of its research… Taking him at his word – that he set out to redo the history of the war on the basis of primary sources 'rather than another's filtration and interpretation' of them – Moyar has provided those who take their history seriously with a stunning performance, and plenty to think about."
- Times Literary Supplement
"I know of no scholar more dedicated to bringing a thorough and accurate portrayal of America's involvement in Vietnam than Mark Moyar. Everyone who is interested in a full picture of that oftmisunderstood war should be grateful for his effort."
- James Webb, Marine combat veteran, author of Fields of Fire and Born Fighting

Toe rail: Replace existing mahogany, or go with aluminum?

Based on the photo you posted, I am guessing that your boat has either a shoebox or inward flange type hull-deck join, and if you've got decent access to the hull deck join area, then installing an aluminum rubrail might not be too bad.
I am unfamiliar with these terms and what they mean regarding my hull-deck join, can you please elaborate on what to look for so I can identify what I have?
Originally Posted by
I agree with what the previous poster said. I like the look of the wood and the functionality of the aluminum. The aluminum would need to be through bolted along it's entire length while you would only need to through bolt the wood at the track. So a key is how much access you have inside for washers and nuts. Depending upon the sharpness of the bends, you might have less trouble with the aluminum but you may need to make a clamping jig or long pipe clamp to pressure them around the curves. The wood might need some coaxing with strategically applied water to help it bend correctly, again using your job-made clamps. Don't forget with either material to use caulk (life-caulk not 5200) to keep water out of edgegrain of wood and help with structural adhesion for either. I'm thinking you might have an easier job with replacing it with wood simply due to the access under the toerail around the length of the boat.
Once you remove the old material, you will get an idea of how the toe rail is presently installed. If installed with wood screw like I imagine, you might need to fill and fair to redrill the holes for best bite for the new screws. While it seems like a big, complicated job, breaking it down into segments will help it go smoother and you should enjoy the result. It's a very pretty boat.
I have really great access to all the bolts of the toe rail (it is thru bolted by the way). None of the bends seem that extreme, but I honestly don't know what would constitute a hard bend.
The w/m alum. toe rail is on sale for just under $700.00 for a 34' section (I'd need two), so it is pricey initially but maintenance free in the long run (I'd imagine). When you say I wouldn't have to thru bolt it all the length of it (a wood rail), how is this possible? It's currently bolted the entire length, and it seems like it would be "loose" where it was not bolted? I'd love to eliminate as many fasteners as possible, but I don't understand how I could achieve this in this application...?
I do plan on bedding with butyl tape instead of a curing product, I plan on bedding everything with butyl actually.
If going with wood, would you recommend shorter sections that would (I think) require less bending, or longer sections that show less seams and endgrain?

Nature and Human Nature
Our nineteenth-century Texas forebears lived more closely with nature than we do, but of course they had little choice in the matter. Though we sometimes romanticize that close relationship, most early Texans probably would have traded the romance for a window unit air conditioner. Nevertheless, they made the most of their situation and there remains much that we can learn from them about the intersection of daily lives, architecture, and nature.

Georges Reserve Robusto 10 Pack
5 x 50 - Natural - Pack of 10
Special Offer
Special Offer $50.95 $110.00 On Sale
Georges Reserve Robusto 10 Pack is an affordably-priced, mild to medium-bodied premium cigar made by the Oliva Family in Esteli, Nicaragua. The blend starts with dark, fully-aged Nicaraguan longfillers that are rich in flavor and remarkably smooth. An African Cameroon leaf binder harmonizes well with the earthy Nicaraguan tobaccos, while a silky Ecuadorian wrapper completes the mix. The result is a well-balanced cigar laced with caramelized flavors of cedar, spice, and a note of vanilla on the finish.
I have to agree with all the POSITIVE reiews, and then some. Top of my list, after years of searching.
Perfect burn and draw, ash held for half the cigar and was white. If you want a consistent mild cigar, without complexity, but good nutty flavor, this would do it.
I read some other reviews criticizing this stick for lack of complexity, etc. but I think for a mild smoke, this is a nice, smooth light cigar and it was intended to be a little less intense. So, for what it is, this was a very nice, smooth flavorful MILD cigar.
One of my favorites and reasonable priced to boot! The combination of wrapper and binder gives this cigar a very unique flavor that is spicier than most Connecticuts but milder than full flavored cigars. A nice cigar to enjoy after a full flavored cigar in the same day. Consistent burn and draw after only a week in the humidor. I m on my second box of these sticks. sticks.

Last year Barack Obama repeatedly warned that chemical weapons use by the Syrian regime against its own people would be a "game changer." But since evidence was found that the Assad regime used chemical weapons so far Obama has not acted.
Today Obama blamed Bush for his inaction.
"We have evidence that there has been the use of chemical weapons inside Syria. But, I don't make decisions based on 'perceived.' And, I can't organize coalitions around 'perceived.' We tried that in the past, by the way, and it didn't work out well."
It's Bush's fault.
When all else fails – blame Bush.
UPDATE: Meanwhile Assad continues to kill the children.

by James Slater: Joining the list of fellow former world champions that just cannot stay retired and say goodbye to the game, Johnny Tapia fights again a week on Friday - as has been reported earlier. Now, according to BoxRec.com, Tapia's opponent has been named as Jose Leo Moreno, a 33 year old from Minnesota..
With a more than reasonable pro record of 12-2(10), Moreno has a good chance of actually defeating the former world champion when they clash in El Paso, Texas on May the 2nd. Moreno has been in with some good fighters before. In his last two fights, he was beaten by Mike Arnaoutis and Lamont Peterson, respectively. The 33 year old was taken out in one round by Arnaoutis, but lasted the full ten round distance with the red hot Peterson. Clearly, then, Moreno can fight. It also must be said, most of his fights have taken place up at light-welterweight or full welterweight. It is not yet known what weight Moreno will face Tapia at, but we must remember Johnny was at his peak at super-flyweight, bantamweight and featherweight! How high will he box at in this latest return?
Unless Moreno drops down a considerable amount of weight, are we to assume Tapia will fight a light-welterweight? This come-back is beginning to look like a bad idea if this is indeed the case. No-one really knows what kind of shape Tapia is in, or what he is weighing-in at right about now. The former super-flyweight, bantamweight and featherweight world champion has not picked an overly easy or weak opponent against whom to return against, that is for certain.
Sure, Moreno lost his last two fights, but against a very good class of opponent. On the other hand, the 33 year old has been inactive as of late. Not having boxed since the points loss to Peterson in February of 2006, it is likely Moreno will be suffering from more ring-rust than the 41 year old Tapia come the first bell. Johnny has actually fought more recently than his eight years younger opponent, having won a ten round decision in February of last year. Maybe Tapia will get another win come May 2nd after all then. But even if he does so; what then?
At his current age, and after having been through all the personal problems he has in the past, it is very hard to see this latest return to the ring ending on a happy note. Hopefully, the fight against Moreno will be nothing more than a case of "one last fight" and then out for the man who goes by the alias on "Mi Vida Loca."

André Hauschke with Peronin at the Cape Epic
April 07, 2011
We have backed André Hauschke, an experienced alpinist and passionate endurance sportsman, once before in 2010 with our liquid food Peronin. That was when he set the world altitude record of 6085 meters for bikes in Chile. His good experiences with this product prompted him again in 2011 to invite us to join his support team during the Cape Epic mountain bike race in South Africa.
André Hauschke about the Cape Epic race:
This mountain bike race in South Africa leaves most others behind and is justly reputed to be the world's toughest race, says Hauschke. Here, true mountain bikers really have the opportunity to test their skills riding up and down mountains: The daily time limit, which depends on the route and profile, is extremely tight and unforgiving in sifting out leisure time bikers who for once have wanted to take part in a race. Thus, it does not take long before the list of bikers who have failed is longer than that of the finishers. This high MTB level is set both for teams and for individual finishers such as I am, who has to complete all the laps alone. Ultimately, achieving the 29th place reflected all the adversities that had to be overcome. But after all, it must also be said that 52 nations and a respectable number of contestants had entered the race.
Many people ask me what I think of the race and especially its physical stresses as compared with the Transalp race and my world altitude record on bike. Every great goal in sports has its own special challenges and laws. You can only meet them if you tackle them head-on and – going to the limits of your personal performance – if you try honestly to attain your target. It is impossible to compare my world altitude record with this stage race. At high altitudes, I had to deal with entirely different, merciless laws regarding stresses and demands which required more than mere physical fitness. But all races have one thing in common, and I would therefore do a number of things differently next time in the Cape Epic: An enormous amount of preparation is needed if you want to be sure that the whole thing will not fail!
As far as nutrition is concerned, I will gladly mention my secret weapon again, as I did last time in Chile. Peronin is absorbed lastingly by the body within all but no time and will never fail you even under stresses and extreme conditions. "Wow, what a super powder!" I am also very grateful to Trek´n Eat for their mix of meals, oat snacks, and Peronin!

EU turns over P312M livelihood fund for families displaced by Mindanao conflict
More News from Tarra Quismundo
More News from Philippine Daily Inquirer
MANILA, Philippines—Saying its support for the Philippines' peace process was not just "a nice declaration or empty words," the European Union on Monday announced a P312-million grant to provide livelihood for families displaced by conflict in Mindanao.
The EU handed the grant to the World Food Program on Monday to help fund the two-year "Enhancing the Resilience of Internally Displaced Persons in Central Mindanao by Strengthening Livelihoods," a project to be implemented along with key Philippine agencies.
The grant was announced a week after the Philippine government and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) signed a landmark framework agreement for the creation of a Bangsamoro, a new juridical entity seen to end the secessionist war in the region.
"We are acting fast because we know that the people of Mindanao want, and need, to see that their lives are improving as a result of the peace agreement," said EU Ambassador to the Philippines Guy Ledoux in turning over the grant to WFP Monday morning.
Echoing earlier EU expressions of support for the peace process, Ledoux again hailed the preliminary agreement, saying it is an initial step toward achieving lasting peace in Mindanao. EU is a member of the International Monitoring Team that observed the government-MILF talks and has been a constant development partner in Mindanao.
"The framework agreement is only a first step—more negotiations need to take place before the final agreement is reached, but [it]demonstrates that the parties are on the road to a comprehensive settlement, thus creating a calm environment that enables the first steps of what can be called reconstruction," Ledoux said in his speech in Monday's rites at the social welfare department's office in Quezon City.
In attendance during the turnover were officials from the WFP, the MILF and the Department of Social Welfare and Development, which hosted Monday's event.
The grant, made under the EU's Aid to Uprooted People Program, will fund small-scale granaries, food-for-work and cash-for-work projects for cooperatives, farmers and fishermen in strife-torn areas in Mindanao.
The fund will also help enhance the agricultural cycle, from production and harvest to bringing the yield to markets.
"Projects such as watershed management, reforestation and agro-forestry will be promoted in the interior uplands to ensure a better living environment for the internally displaced persons," the EU said in a statement.
The fund will also support coastal protection programs, particularly mangrove replantation and projects to protect and conserve biodiversity.
In a statement sent to the EU, Mohagher Iqbal, chairman of the MILF negotiating panel, welcomed the EU support and said the livelihood program will help move development forward.
"The Moro Islamic Liberation Front is greatly encouraged by the show of support for the peace process. This assistance will facilitate the work ahead, as we move towards achieving peace and development for the Bangsamoro," Iqbal said.
"The MILF greatly appreciates the help EU has extended to promote peace in Mindanao, and to improve the living conditions of the people, especially the internally displaced persons," he said.
WFP Country Director Stephen Anderson, meanwhile, cited EU's role in promoting not just peace in its region but also around the world. The bloc just received this year's Nobel Peace Prize for unifying European nations.
"As we know, the EU has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for advancing peace in Europe. In part, the EU in the Philippines is proactively promoting the Mindanao peace process through this significant and timely EU grant, which will enable WFP to help conflict-affected communities quickly recover and rebuild," said Anderson.

35-49 year old male
Late 40's with own business in Wales - travel for fun. Used to be a back packer and get well off the beaten track. Been traveling for over 25 years and been on every continent - except Africa. I have NO business interests in S. E Asia & Malaysia. The information I share provides NO financial benefit to me As to how we travel....well, a bit of everything. Sometimes, we might rough it - esp if we are in an out of the way destination. Other times it will be 4 or 5 star hotels. WE do not go to tourist traps or areas that cater for tourists. We prefer to be in an area still frequented by locals - we find we have a 'biggger' experience of the country by doing this. Eating and drinking with the residents is a fantastic way to understand a country. WE do not 'do' package holidays or packed out beach resorts or guided tours. Hotels should deliver what they advertise - e.g - 5 star means 5 STAR. equally, 'lodging house' is a small family run place that MUST be clean and tidy

Submitted: 07-30-2013 by rikjohnson
Having purchased far more used kayaks than I care to remember, I decided to take the plunge and purchase a new Old Town Dirigo 120 from a sporting goods store that was going out-of-business. Now, years later, quite a few years later, I find that the Dirigo has gone through a few modifications. But as far as I can see, it is essentially the same boat.
Basically, the Dirigo is a mid-sized rec-boat with excellent stability and decent cargo capacity. The soft seat (useful on long trips) adjusts in two directions allowing you to individualize your comfort. The cockpit is large enough to hold my small dog (the newer ones have that terrible over-sized cockpit opening).
Basically, I purchased the Dirigo because I like OT construction. Their multi-ply hull is incredibly strong and refuses to deform even in the Arizona heat. This also allows the boat to take incredible punishment like beaching or striking an underwater rock as the speedboat wakes lift and drop you.
The stern dry-hatch is large enough to hold almost anything, a good deal when most boats require you to unload your dry-bag to get the tent stuffed within.
The boat keeps up with 14-footers easily though a 16-foot will leave you behind. A multi-day trip down the Colorado River kept me in the middle of the fleet, slower than the Sea-kayaks, faster than the other 12-foot kayaks plus I could get into areas that the longer boats could not reach and it carried everything I needed and more.
So, why this one?
Because I wanted a boat that would do a multi-day trip and still do day-trips and the Dirigo 120 did both. I've done 5 days out of that boat (hauling 170# of gear with no problems) and I've taken it on a day trip with much smaller boats.
I HAVE made a few modifications that the Dirigo forgives easily. I shoved some closed-cell foam under the seat to prevent wear. Shoved the same under my heels for comfort. Added Pad-eyes and deck line all over the thing and even added a bow bulkhead and dry-hatch and the Dirigo took every one in stride. Even cutting a 9" hole in the fore-deck didn't harm the integrity or strength of the hull. My only problem is that after too many years of punishment, I finally broke the seat-back. But a phone call and $30 and I received the new unit a few days later which installed easily.
I do wish that they would put a bulkhead and hatch in the bow as most lunch breaks would allow my food to be on the beach instead of wading into the water to reach the stern hatch. But that is rare on a 12-foot boat so I added one myself. NOTE, do NOT try this unless you are very good at this sort of thing. I am, so could, and did but my warranty ran out long ago so no problem. Still, after what, a decade or more of punishment (I am very hard on my boats), my Dirigo is still as strong as ever, so why replace it?

Being a chef in Russia is different, says S. Suresh. One has to battle the cold and cook everything sans chillies. He narrates the changes taking place in Moscow to Suresh Kumar
A plate of 'Kleb' or 'Reece' with side dishes of pork, beef or mutton steamed is what people usually order out there. "Due to extremely cold weather during the entire year, the Russians can't survive without meat and eat very little of vegetables. They do not relish chilli, masala or oily food. Pork, beef, mutton stuffed salads are their favourite dishes. Drinking 'vodka' is also part of their food habits", says S. Suresh, Chef, '5Spice' a restaurant in Moscow. Suresh was back home for a holiday at Vazhakkala, Kochi. Suresh left for Moscow in 2004 and comes home once a year. It was through his friend Santhosh Das that he got a chance to reach Moscow. The 5Spice restaurant was run by Santhosh Das and later sold to a local Russian.
Coffee preferred
'Kleb' is the Russian name for our naan/roti. 'Reece' is rice which they serve as fried rice and its varieties. Our coffee and tea sounds similar like 'Kaapi' and 'Chai' in Russian. They prefer 'kaapi' to 'chai'. The Russians are addicted to sweets and meat. Sweets like ice-creams and chocolates are favourable for them. They usually don't over eat and the people are very strong. Fish and egg are also on the Russians menu but not as much as meat. They like Chinese food like noodles and fried rice (without chilli), says Suresh.
The '5Spice' restaurant has gourmet food known as 'business lunch' served from Monday to Friday since Russian offices follow a 5-day week. It consists of rice/noodles, side dishes of pork/beef/mutton steamed (without chilli or masala) salad and a dessert item. The 'business lunch' is served from 12 noon to 4pm. It costs 150 roubles. One rouble is equivalent to Rs1.5.
"In fact chilli and masala are unavailable there. We (Indians) take these spices back after our vaca tion here. Foreigners who come to our restaurant want a bit of chilly in their food. Our food is also prepared with chilli," adds Suresh. The Russians like sweet and sour tastes as well.
Road side outlets, like our 'thattukadas' selling chicken shewarmas can be seen in Moscow, Suresh observes. The Russians seem very fond of India and our culture. Raj Kapoor, Amitabh Bachchan and Mithun Chakraborty are household names in Russia.
They sing their favourite Hindi songs. Mithun's famous disco number in the film 'Disco Dancer' is very popular among the Russians. "There are 15 Indian restaurants in Moscow which serve vegetarian food like idli, dosa, sambar, chutney etc. 'Taj; 'Guru', 'Durbar', 'Maharaja' are the prominent Indian hotels. 'The chef called 'Vasuvettan' at Durbar hotel hailing from Mala, Thrissur is popular among the Indian circle. Apart from us Engineering, medical students from India studying at Moscow assemble at Durbar hotel to taste the homely dishes prepared by Vasuvettan", adds Suresh.
At 5Spice, Suresh is the only Keralite. Among the four Indians, two are from Tamil Nadu and the other chef is from Uttharkhand.
Extreme cold
Except for the summer season from June-August, the Russians reel under -30 to - 45degree Celsius during the other seasons. It may go up to -70 in regions like Siberia. The summer season shows (+10 to +15 degree Celsius).
They can't go out without wearing sweaters as the entire region is covered with snow fall. (Even though the climate is extremely cold, Russians don't mind having ice-creams. Mechanised snow removing is done round the clock.)
Life in Russia is very different and their priorities also differ from ours. Suresh says the changes that are happening in Russia are good for the people, they believe. From an obscurantist, suppressive regime, the Russians now breathe easy. Workers are even getting paid in dollars. A chef normally receives a monthly salary of $1000 in Moscow.
Women have equal role as men in jobs. Women work as waitresses in bars and hotels in Moscow. The Russians who were earlier known as chauvinists for their language and culture have now started learning English.
Moscow so far has no skyscrapers and high rise buildings, but now, such structures are fast coming up and the underground metro rail system in Moscow is one among the best in the world.
The engineering marvel built in the early 1970's is widely acclaimed. Trains pass through the system once in every two minutes.
Boards, banners and most of the communication are in Russian. "Even Information Technology field, language used in Internet and Websites are in Russian language. It takes nearly an hour to convert e-mail messages to English in the internet cafes. So we (Indians) depend on Indian medical and engineering students who have brought their computers from home. Using internet cafes is also expensive. For a half-hour duration, the browsing charge goes up to Rs.100," explains Suresh. He understands and speak Russian but can't read or write the language.
The Indians depend on 'Moscow Times', the only English daily published from Moscow and cable television like Asianet, Sun etc. to get the news. The daily is published six days a week with Sunday as a holiday!

There's a lot to see between the lines of studies that estimate uncollected sales tax figures.
While a study by the University of Tennessee projects that uncollected sales tax on web sales (both business-to-consumer and business-to-business) under current law will reach as much as $12.7 billion in 2012, another study backed by Internet businesses says the loss in sales tax revenue will reach only $4.7 billion.
Why the gap?
Forecasts often differ because of different models and data sets, but the wide gap between those two figures also reflects the split between proponents and opponents of a nationwide sales tax system: The University of Tennessee study was requested and backed financially by the SST Governing Board, which oversees the Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Agreement, and three store-centered retail industry organizations that support the sales tax effort to level the playing field with web-only retailers—the National Retail Federation, the International Council of Shopping Centers, and the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts.
The membership in NetChoice, which backed the alternate study, is comprised of web-only and catalog retailers and organizations steadfastly opposed to a new sales tax system. Its members include eBay Inc., Overstock.com Inc., the Electronic Retailing Association, and the Internet Alliance. The Internet Alliance includes groups such as the Direct Marketing Association as well as individual Internet businesses.
The NetChoice-supported report—written in February 2010 by Jeff Eisenach, managing director at business consultants Navigant Economics (formerly chairman of economics consultants Empiris, which Navigant acquired early this year) and an adjunct professor of law at George Mason University; and Robert Litan, senior fellow in economics at the Brookings Institution and vice president of policy and research at the Kauffman Foundation, an organization that promotes entrepreneurship in business—contends that the University of Tennessee study overestimates both uncollected tax revenue tied to B2B online sales and overall projected growth in online sales.
Eisenach and Litan note, for example, that the Tennessee study fails to consider the fact that broadband penetration in U.S. households is reaching a saturation point and no longer spurring growth in e-commerce as it once did, and that the study also fails to account for the fact that many B2B sales are considered "inputs to production" and not subject to sales tax.
The Tennessee study, which was written by university economics and business professors Donald Bruce, William Fox and LeAnn Luna, included detailed questions to states about how sales tax is charged against wholesale transactions as well as products sold as component parts in manufacturing. It forecasts e-commerce sales using data from the U.S. Census Bureau combined with projections from HIS Global Insights, an economic forecasting firm.
Tennessee's study, completed in April 2009, is an updated version of an earlier independently produced study by professors Bruce and Fox that was not financially backed by either side of the sales tax debate. The SST Governing Board, having recognized the prior Tennessee study, in 2004, as unusually comprehensive among the tax studies conducted in most states, requested the university to update it to reflect more current e-commerce developments, Peterson says.
Two other university economics professors—James Alm of Georgia State University and Mikhail Melnik of Niagara University, who don't receive support from outside parties with an interest in the sales tax issue—say in a June report published in the National Tax Journal that the Tennessee study offers the best example of estimated revenue lost from uncollected sales tax, noting that, among other things, it uses detailed state-by-state surveys of taxable e-commerce transactions.
The true amount of incremental tax collection that would arise under a new sales tax collection system, of course, should eventually surface if pending federal legislation authorizing states to mandate sales tax collection by Internet and catalog retailers becomes law. Until then, it's good to look between the lines of the studies.

Police are continuing to track a black bear in the northwest part of the city of Savage. Officers are working with the Department of Natural Resources.
Police say the bear was shot by an officer Friday, when it was spotted behind a home on the 9200 block of Creek Way.
The bear took off into a wooded area before it could be captured.
Police say anyone who sees the bear should keep their distance and call 911 immediately to report the animal's location and direction of travel.
Police think the bear is 1 1/2 to 2 years old, and weighs 150 to 200 lbs.
The bear was seen seen at the Town and Country Campground on Friday around 8:30 p.m., following a number of other sightings that were reported earlier in the day.
The bear was then spotted at 10:30 a.m. on Monday, crossing Highway 13 between 128th Street and 132nd Street. Officers were unable to locate the bear when they arrived.
Police would like to remind people bears can become a nuisance when they find a source of food. They will usually return regularly.

Title: Novel Approach for Attenuating Microgliosis in Alzheimer's Disease Non-Technical Title: A New Way to Decrease Inflammation for Treating Alzheimer's Disease
Acknowledgements: This grant is made possible by a generous bequest from the Estate of Frederick J. Pelda. Duration: July 1, 2012 - June 30, 2014 Award Type: Standard Award Amount: $200,000
The main goal of this project is to determine whether a specific protein is responsible for most of the inflammation that occurs in the brain during Alzheimer's disease. Dr. Colin Combs and colleagues propose two novel approaches, intended not only to identify this protein but also to test specific strategies for interfering with its function, using a mouse model of the disease. This interference should be able to decrease the inflammation in the brain and decrease behavioral decline.
The primary goal of this proposal is to test a novel way to decrease the inflammation component of Alzheimer's disease. Dr. Colin Combs and his team have preliminary data that indicate that the immune cells within the brain, called microglia, need the activity of a specific protein, NFAT, in order to become activated during the course of the disease. The researchers will start directly in mouse models of Alzheimer's disease. These experiments will determine whether NFAT inhibition can improve conditions either early or late in the course of the disease, with the hypothesis that it will be effective at both times. Although immune cell activation has been a long-recognized change in Alzheimer's disease brains, there has been no specific strategy to inhibit it because the manner by which the cells become activated has been unclear.
Anti-inflammatory approaches to treating Alzheimer's disease have been somewhat unappealing in the past because they are poorly tolerated by patients over the long term. They are currently not considered to be particularly effective when given to patients with established disease. These researchers suggest that these observations have, rather, been due to the fact the prior drugs were not specifically targeting the changes that occur in the brain during disease. Completion of this work aims to identify a very specific target for decreasing the mechanism by which immune cells become activated and to provide several strategies for manipulating that target. This research will provide fundamentally essential data for deciding whether or not to advance the research into humans. The investigators are particularly encouraged by the preliminary data, which give every indication that anti-inflammatory approaches should be just as effective in advanced disease as in early forms of the disease.
Dr. Colin Combs is an Associate Professor in the Pharmacology, Physiology & Therapeutics Department at the University of North Dakota School of Medicine in Grand Forks, ND. He did his post-doctoral work at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, OH, and obtained his Ph.D. from the University of Rochester, NY. Combs' laboratory works to understand the mechanisms by which immune dysfunction may occur in the brain during Alzheimer's disease. His lab focuses on identifying key points in the activation process of the brain's immune cells, microglia. This approach allows them to determine strategies for altering microglia behavior to promote regeneration and survival rather than inflammatory degeneration during disease.

Jumbo's Pumpkin PatchRead MoreWhen leaves start changing colors and floating on cool autumn breezes, Jumbo's Pumpkin Patch opens its gates to become a flurry of family fall activity. Visitors hop on a hayride that takes them to the 30-acre pumpkin patch, where scores of bulbous gourds lie ripe for the taking. Also accessible by hayride, a sprawling corn maze tests families' navigational skills and/or willingness to eat their way back home. Back at the farm, kids hop on pony rides and mini-wagon rides or try on a new face from a face painter. A petting zoo offers visitors close encounters with friendly farm animals, from rabbits and sheep to pigs and cows. The patch and attractions are located on the grounds of the Huffer Family Farm, which was purchased by the family in 1870. Seven generations later, the Huffers still cultivate the land for crops?when they're not cultivating corn mazes and armies of really nice scarecrows.6521 Holter Rd.Middletown, MD US
