What does accessibility have to do with optimization? According to Sharon, a heck of a lot more than we think.
Accessibility is becoming a hot topic these days with the recent adoption of Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act and increasingly improved technologies that convert text to voice. Soon everyone -- not just visually impaired users -- will be able to hear Web content. Although these new rules currently apply to U.S. government Web sites only, a recent Wired news article, "Fed Opens Web to Disabled," speculates that these guidelines "will soon be extended to include all private commercial sites."
Interesting, you say, but what does this have to do with optimization? Well... a lot. Revising a site so that it will meet the new accessibility guidelines actually goes a long way to naturally optimizing it. Search engine optimization (SEO) and accessibility are mutually supportive activities when utilizing a traditional, on-the-page, content-driven approach.
That said, let's look at these activities a bit more closely.
More Than Just ALT Tags
Ensuring that visually meaningful content has an alternative way of being understood is the backbone of accessibility guidelines. But the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) of the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) go much further -- and actually ensure that all users will benefit from accessibility improvements made on sites. Bobby, a well-known accessibility evaluation tool, uses these guidelines to determine compliance. And Bobby demands that a site (among other things) "organize content logically and clearly, such as with headings, list elements, meaningful links, and navigation bars."
Imagine that. Meaningful content.
De-emphasizing the "Bells and Whistles"
When analyzing a site's code, structure, and page layout at the beginning of an optimization, I look for the elements that might trip up a robot. Submitting a site for approval to Bobby provides a quick-and-dirty way to get at the same issues. Where Bobby's purpose is to point out the need to provide alternative content for features (e.g., applets or plug-ins), the optimizer questions the need for any of these features at all.
How mission-critical is optimization, and is it worth having to maintain content in two separate formats? Right now, advising a client to replace his or her cool Flash navigation system with something, well, less flashy, often simply fails. But the accessibility argument could prove to be an effective tool for optimization.
Are Search Engines Getting on Board?
Google's recent announcement about its "venturing into the invisible Web" and its ability to index PDF files is a positive step toward increasing access to content that previously was invisible to robots. But much more work needs to done by all the major search engines to make available content worthy of being found -- the biggest challenge currently being content that is dynamically generated.
If engines could incorporate the WAI's guidelines into their algorithms, it might be more appropriate to penalize sites with accessibility issues and, similarly, reward sites that meet or exceed requirements. Perhaps this could be another tool to determine the quality of content.
Reframing SEO
Jakob Nielsen's "Disabled Accessibility: The Pragmatic Approach" shows his interest in accessibility. He implicitly links this concept to usability. As optimizers, we need to start linking accessibility to our area of expertise or,- for lack of a better word, to "findability." This continuum -- findability to accessibility to usability -- defines the user's Web experience. Driving targeted traffic to a site by using an arsenal of SEO tactics is one thing, but if a user has a negative experience after arriving at a site, our clients are still not going to achieve ROI.
Is It the Death of Doorways?
Sorry, but it's impossible not to comment on doorway pages in an article that focuses on site content -- not false content. If corporations are going to have to revisit site content to meet accessibility requirements, and they understand that the simple action of doing so helps optimize their site, why wouldn't they explore a more content-oriented approach? The allure of the doorway will fade. Already, in my own SEO business, I am approached more and more by jaded doorway-page users, tired of the overblown guarantees that never materialized.
High rankings are only one part of the mix. This is a good time to try to place SEO in a new context and learn how to better sell what we do by discovering our true value to the client. In our analyses of the optimization challenges within Web sites, we can also give valuable feedback on a site's accessibility and even usability. We have a contribution to make to the bigger picture.

On March 28th, Québec Environment minister Yves-François Blanchet announced that the Bureau d'audiences publiques sur l'environnement (BAPE) will hold public hearings on the uranium sector in Québec. These hearings are scheduled for the Fall of 2013 and will focus on the environmental and social impacts of exploration and mining of uranium in Québec. The Minister also indicated that no authorization certificates for uranium exploration or mining projects in Québec will be issued until the BAPE's independent study is completed and its report is issued.
The Minister stressed the importance for the Government to respect the principles relating to the protection of the social environment and the protection of Aboriginal peoples, their societies, their communities and their economy. Aboriginal organizations will therefore be invited to play a significant role in the consultation. The Minister indicated that the BAPE's study will be conducted in collaboration with the review committees and advisory committees provided for in the James Bay and Northern Québec Agreement, the Northeastern Québec Agreement and the Environment Quality Act.
The Government's press release is available here (in French only): http://www.mddefp.gouv.qc.ca/infuseur/communique.asp?no=2383

Undergraduate Program Options
The Business Management Major
The Business Management major, offered at Stony Brook since 1988, is designed for students who wish to enter the business arena with substantial knowledge and skills across the full spectrum of business disciplines. The major will prepare you for diverse and innovative managerial and professional positions in all areas of business. Career opportunities include management positions in manufacturing companies, business and management consulting, financial planning and banking, sales management, marketing, international business and human resource management. Enrollment in the major has grown steadily since its inception, and it is now the third largest undergraduate major at Stony Brook. Leaders in all economic sectors urge business students to broaden their understanding of the world by exploring non-business subjects; the Business Management major, combined with Stony Brook's liberal arts education, prepares you to manage effectively in the world's competitive marketplaces. Students have the opportunity to specialize in one of seven business areas: accounting, finance, marketing, sustainable business, international business, entrepreneurship or management. Students will also take classes in business statistics, decision sciences, and general management.
Acceptance to the Major
Qualified freshman and transfer students who have indicated their interest in the major on their applications are accepted directly into the major upon admission into the University. Students who did not apply for the major and those who were not accepted into the major when they entered the University may apply to the major provided that their cumulative grade point average (including, for transfer students, course-work complete at other institutions) is 3.10 or higher. Applications must be submitted to the College of Business Office of Student Services no later than March 15 for admission in the following Fall semester, and no later than October 15 for admission in the following Spring semester. Application forms are available at the College of Business Office of Student Services.
Click here for the requirements.
Business Management Minor
The Business Management minor is intended for students pursuing other majors who seek a foundation in business studies. The minor complements their chosen major by introducing them to principles and techniques used in business and management. Students may apply to the BUS minor any time during their academic career provided that their cumulative grade point average is a 3.10 or higher. Applications must be submitted to the College of Business Office of Student Services no later than March 15 for admission in the following Fall semester, and no later than October 15 for admission in the following Spring semester. Application forms are available at the College of Business Office of Student Services.
Click here for the requirements
The Accounting Minor (ACC)
The Accounting minor provides students with a strong academic foundation in the field of accounting which will serve as a basis for further advanced study in accounting at the graduate level. It is anticipated that students who declare the accounting minor will continue their accounting education by enrolling in the MBA program in order to prepare themselves for the Uniform Certified Public Accountancy exam and a career in public accounting.
Click here for the requirements.
Entrepreneurial undergraduates play a range of roles from technological innovators to social change agents and from changes agents to international adventurers. The minor is open to non-business majors. Students may apply at any time during their academic career. Students must have successfully completed a Statistics course prior to applying.
Click here for requirements.
College of Business Honors Program
Business Honors Program (BHP)
Incoming first-year Business Management majors who show exceptional talent will be invited to enroll in a special section of BUS 115. Students who excel in BUS 115 and WRT 102 with an A- or better and who earn a cumulative GPA of 3.5 or better will be interviewed to determine their motivation for research. Those who pass successfully through this process will be invited to join the Business Honors Program (BHP). Relative to the Business Management major who is not in the BHP, the BHP student will take three 1-credit courses, one WRT course (3 credits), and two additional BUS courses (3 credits each). The BHP student will count the WRT course and the two additional BUS courses as upper-division elective courses. Student progress and performance will be monitored throughout the program. Students who perform poorly (below a cumulative 3.3 GPA) in their academic studies will be counseled and warned that they are in jeopardy of being dropped from the BHP. Following at least one warning, such students will not be permitted to continue in the BHP. Students entering as a business major, either as an existing Stony Brook student or transfer student, will be evaluated under the same criteria for curriculum and admittance to the BHP.
Year 1, Fall: BUS 115 Introduction to Business/WRT 102 (3 credits each)
Year 1, Spring: BUS 195 Business Honors Seminar I (1 credit)
Year 2, Fall: BUS 295 Business Honors Seminar II (1 credit)
Year 2, Spring: BUS 296 Business Honors Seminar III (1 credit)
Year 3, Fall: BUS 447 Business Ethics/WRT 301 (3 credits each)
Year 3, Spring: BUS 380 Research Methods (3 credits)
Year 4, Fall: BUS 487 Independent Research (3 credits)
Year 4, Fall and Spring: BUS 495 and BUS 496 (3 credits)

I am a true believer in the evaluative approach to mediation. I not only enjoy engaging counsel and the parties in a discussion of the issues in a case, but I know that this discussion will eventually lead the parties down the path to settlement of the case. When the actual negotiation begins, I am a proponent of a principled negotiation in which the settlement offers and counter offers are tied to the evaluation of the issues of the case and the likelihood of success or failure at trial. But the evaluative method only goes so far. It is an effective way to narrow the gap between the parties, but it may not be enough to close the gap.

2000 BEST Theater
Colonial Theatre

Armed with layers of gold paint, all manner of allegorical scenery, and crystal chandeliers, C.T. provides an opulent backdrop for productions of Les Mis, Ragtime, and Macbeth. Vertigo sufferers beware, though: With capacity for 1,700, seating is steep. It's a good thing sound travels up.

Gohan's The Wedgie Boy
In this story Gohan is 8yrs old and he is at school. And it's not just any school. It's a school with warriors with powers and more. And Gohan is a nerd who gets picked on. Now here is the story, GOHAN"S WEDGIE! (Note: Gohan is my favorite DBZ character. This is just for fun.)
[Setting, at Four Star Elementary school in the classroom.]
Mr. Red: Passes back test "I am very disappointed in you class. All I saw was D's and F's. All except one. It is my star student, Gohan. Excellent job, Gohan."
Gohan: "No problem." Smiles (Gohan was wearing the clothes his mom gave him before they left for Namek. )
Drake: Whispers to Philip "Man that guy is such a dork."
Philip: "Yeah."
Drake: Grins evilly "I know a way to completely embarrass in front of the school and make him cry like a baby." Laughs a little
Philip: "What is it?"
Drake: Whispers the plan in Philips ear
Philip: Grins evilly
[Lunch time]
Gohan: Gets his lunch and goes sit down
Drake: "Hey Gohan."
Gohan: "Hey."
Philip: "The principle said go to his office. He wants to have lunch with you in his office."
Gohan: "Really!?" Gets up and goes out in the hallway and walks
Philip, Drake, and Gohan appears in one part of the hallway where no one is around
Drake: Grabs Gohan's tray
Gohan: "Hey!"
Philip: Covers Gohan's mouth
Gohan: Muffling
Drake: Pulls down Gohan's pants
Gohan: Blushes and sees his ponies' boy briefs underwear showing and tries to get away
Phillip: Gets duct tape from pocket and tapes Gohan's mouth shut, and tapes his legs together and arms together
Gohan muffles and screams and tries to get away
Drake: Turns Gohan around and gives him a painful wedgie
Gohan muffle screams
Drake: "Awww! Little shorty love this wedgie." Lifts Gohan up by his underwear
Gohan: Kicks legs, screams like crazy and tears come down
Drake: Makes it worse
Gohan: kicks legs and his testicals are in pain. Gohan's balls are being squeezed. Gohan balls feel like they're gonna pop. Also Gohan butt in showing.
Philip was recording the whole thing and pointing and laughing
Gohan cries
Drake bounces Gohan up and down making the wedgie worse and goes outside, strips Gohan into nothing but his underwear and gives Gohan a flagpole wedgie
Gohan cries and his underwear is slowly stretching
Drake: "HAVE FUN! WEDGIE BOY!!!"
Gohan just stays up there and cries. He is wondering how long this pain will last. And Gohan's underwear is squeezing his balls so bad that one is sticking out on each side and twitching.
Drake and Phillip: "What a dork!" Laughs and walks away. And in the lunch room they show the other kids Gohan's wedgie from the phone and then puts it on the internet.
30mins later
Gohan: Gohan's underwear had ripped and Gohan had fell from the flag pole. But he had survived. Let's just hope his kids survived. Gohan was so embrassed that he just finally tore the duct tape off and got the tape of his mouth and went home naked.
Poor Gohan
Gohan's Wedgie by SuperSonicSpiderman

Where's Goku when you need him?

It's 7:30 Sunday night when I tap on the bedroom door of my 16 year-old daughter, Coco. She looks up from the laptop on her desk, her forehead still furrowed in concentration from working on a PowerPoint project that's due tomorrow and the thumb of her right hand twitching over her rollerball mouse. "What?" she asks, her blue eyes under black- and purple-streaked hair darting from me...

The Lasso: Roping in the best of the web

Two dancers try to one-up Tom Hanks' 'Big' character
Perhaps you remember a scene from the 1988 film "Big" where Tom Hanks and Robert Loggia play a floor piano with their feet, looking like a precursor to Dance Dance Revolution. The iconic scene has been reenacted several times over, including on "The Simpsons."
A video has started to pick up steam on YouTube that shows two girls giving Hanks and Loggia a run for their money.
There is not much information about the clip, other than it happened at the FAO Schwarz toy store in New York, and the two females appear to work for the company. They get a large round of applause at the end of their performance.
Watch them give their best shot below, and then compare it to Hanks' rendition in "Big."

The Winnipeg Jets continue to add depth within the organization. As predicted earlier today on winnipeghockeyreport.com, the Jets have their signed depth centerman, after inking former Vancouver Canuck Rick Rypien. With Tanner Glass and Rypien being signed in the past few days, all signs point to former Thrasher Eric Boulton not being re-signed.
Now it's early in the off-season, but is the team taking a similar approach to the Toronto Maple Leafs? A skilled, speedy top six forwards, then the bottom six being truculence and belligerence? The "bottom six" as it stands right now would be Chris Thornburn, Jim Slater, Tanner Glass, Patrice Cormier and Rypien, not the most peaceful bunch of forwards. Now the hometown fans aren't likely to complain about rough and tumble hockey, but the fact remains the Jets are playing in the softest, least physical division, the Southeast. Of the Panthers, Lightning, Capitals or Hurricanes who is the most physical? One could make the argument, those four clubs are among the four least toughest teams in the league.
The other side of argument is that the Jets will being play 40 games against the Northeast and Atlantic division, teams over there are allot tougher. We'll find out if this approach will pay off is October.

Alligator: These limited permits allow the harvest of alligators on specific public water bodies or within specific counties. Each permit authorizes the take of two alligators on a specific harvest unit (see Florida is the alligator hunting capital of the world.)
Dove: Dove hunting opportunities are in high demand but often hard to find. The FWC has created some exceptional dove hunting opportunities throughout the state. The friendly, social atmosphere surrounding dove hunts makes for the perfect setting for friends and family to hunt together.
Information on Florida's public dove fields is available in late September. Visit MyFWC.com/Dove to get the latest information on special-opportunity dove hunts and dove fields on Florida's WMAs. Information is updated every Thursday throughout dove season and includes dove densities, previous week's harvests and field conditions.
Green Swamp camping: Camping permits are available for the archery, general gun, small game, hog, spring turkey, and fish and frog seasons on designated sites within the Green Swamp Wildlife Management Area.
National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) hunts: The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has partnered with FWC to make several NWR hunt permits available through FWC's limited entry permitting system. These are U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service hunts issued by FWC. For more information on NWR hunting opportunities, contact the local NWR office (see Hunting Florida's national wildlife refuges on Wildlife Management Area Permit Requirements.
Quota permits: Quota permits are a specific sub-type of limited entry permits that have their own unique set of rules and regulations on how to apply. Some of these permits allow group applications, guest permits, and the accumulation of preference points. Be sure to check the permit specific information and application worksheets at MyFWC.com/Hunting (under "Limited Entry Hunts") for a complete list of details for each of these quota permit types.
*Guest permits are available for this permit type.
Residents age 65 or older; residents with a Disabled Person Hunting and Fishing Certificate; residents in the U.S. Armed Services stationed out of state and home on leave for 30 days or less; and children under age 16 are exempt and not required to have quota permits to participate in many hunts. Due to lease agreements, size and other factors, some hunts do not allow exemptions. Hunts where all persons must have quota permits are listed in bold print on the quota permit application worksheets. This also is indicated by the phrase "no exemptions" found under the Quota Permit Information section in specific WMA brochures. Children under the age of 16 may accompany any quota permit holder, age 18 or older, on hunts with "no exemptions" provided the youth and permit holder share a single bag limit. A person whose license indicates Hunter Safety Deferral may hunt with any quota permit holder age 21 or older who holds a hunting license provided that both hunters share a single bag limit. A supervisor (must be 21 years of age or older) who holds a valid license (unless exempt) may hunt with any license holder whose license indicates Hunter Safety Deferral and who also holds a quota hunt permit (must share a single bag limit).
Recreational use permits: Recreational use permits are designed to provide more revenue to private landowners in the Wildlife Management Area (WMA) System. Money set aside by the FWC to compensate those private landowners for hunting use on their lands was not sufficient enough to compete with private hunting leases. Rather than have WMAs drop out of the system, the FWC offers recreational use permits. Fees collected from these permits supplement the private landowners, keeping their lands open to public hunting.
Except for hunting, recreational use permit holders and their spouses or dependent youth (under 16 years of age) may participate in other activities on designated WMAs. Only permit holders and one dependent youth (under 16 years of age) may hunt. If spouses or more than one dependent youth (under 16 years of age) wish to hunt, they must purchase a recreational use permit. These permits also include a management area permit that may be used when hunting other public lands not in the recreational use program.
Recreational use permits are only valid on the area designated on the permit and may not be used on other recreational use program areas. Once permits are issued, they can be renewed annually for two additional years, essentially making them a three-year permit.
The three recreational use areas and their annual permit fees are:
Flint Rock WMA
Jefferson and Wakulla counties
Grove Park WMA
Alachua County
Gulf Hammock WMA
Levy County
Regulations in red are new this year.
Purple text indicates an important note.

Even high-profile architects are scrounging for work in this economy. The end of massive scale, high-end design came with the opening of MGM Mirage's CityCenter in Las Vegas in December. Now designers are turning toward smaller projects and government-funded infrastructure work. "It's a problem if you think you can only do buildings," said Rafael Vinoly, who designed the 1,500-room hotel tower at CityCenter.

Have you seen this article on TechCrunch describing how and why brands will soon try to automate social media responses? I just read it and it makes me a bit furious. Many companies, especially large ones, already go out of their way to make it as difficult as humanely possible to contact a real, live human being to talk to. Why? Obviously because they don't care about their customers as much as their advertising would have you believe.
So, big brands (and small brands if you're dumb enough to try it), here's a promise and a prediction. If you begin automating social media responses, I promise to quit using your product. I also promise to raise a huge stink about it. I also predict that other people will rebel in a big way if this becomes widespread.
A decade ago companies could automate systems (like phones) to their hearts content because people didn't have a voice. There was no way someone could ring the alarm. If a company wanted to ignore you it could. I don't think that's the case in this day and age. Anyone can take to Twitter and Facebook and let their friends, and the public, know what injustices have occurred.
As I've said before, consumers complaining on Twitter is a good thing. It holds companies accountable in a way that was never possible before and smart companies respond well and make unhappy customers happy and probably polish their image pretty nicely in the process.
And it's the smart brands that won't take part in automating social media responses. It's just good for business. You have to focus on your customers and making them happy or your business is headed south. Brands should consider responding to customers through social media (complaints or anything else) as marketing rather than customer service.
Not all automation is evil. I don't have a problem with scheduling posts. That's smart (although in a perfect world, I wish it didn't exist to keep social media as pure as can be). Where I have a problem is with the introduction of "automated proactive responses" and "human-like relationships" because I don't want to be brushed off or placated. I want to talk to a real person who can solve my problems and who makes me feel like the company gives a crud.
What's the bottom line in my opinion? Don't do it brands. It's not worth it and you're going to make people mad. If you're hoping that automated social media responses will just become the norm and consumers will get used to it… don't bet on it.
What do you think? Leave me a comment and let me know.

Great article!! I could not agree more. It has been far too long that we, as consumers, have allowed big business to dictate to us. It's time for consumers to take that power back and let the big companies realize just how much their Xmas bonuses depend on US!!
Hello Chris,
I absolutely agree with your article! I think the day this happen will happen, it will be the end of social media as we know it. Instead we will see the rise of anti-social media (which is already here in some form).
I teach social media 101, and I always tell my students that dealing with customers' complaints over Twitter or Facebook is a great way to help spread the word about your business, and show you truly care about your audience.
Thank you for taking the time to write this article!

Tulsidas Section[edit]
Reading up this section, I see following sentence which does not seem fit for this (or any) article. I am going to take it out, in a day or two, please discuss here if anyone has any issues.
"Though Ram seems like a human by eventually succumbing to death, not knowing where his wife is when she is stolen, and grieving wildly for her, thus seeming to go against each part of being Sat, Chit and Ananda, he still somehow is- this is the perplexing yet somehow still compelling faith of Tulsidas." Duty2love (talk) 18:55, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
I've altered the spelling in Devanāgarī. In Classical Sanksrit the anusvāra ं is avoided in this case. While it is possible to write ānanda (आनन्द) as ānaṃda (आनंद), in practice one doesn't. mahaabaala (talk) 17:28, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
Highest Reality[edit]
"This sublime blissful experience of the boundless, pure consciousness is a glimpse of ultimate reality" could also be transcribed as "This sublime insight is the highest (non-sublatible) Reality". Unfortunately, that's my personal interpretation, so comments would be welcome. Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 13:16, 6 March 2013 (UTC)
I don't know how to properly format or cite this, but the pronunciation should be included, i.e.:

New Knowledge of the Ear's Hidden Susceptibility to Hearing Loss and the Magic Formula for Predicting SNR Loss
Mead Killion
A method for predicting the difficulty of understanding speech in noise, quantified by the measured Signal-to-Noise Ratio loss will be presented. By incorporating an estimate of the loss of inner hair cells or neural terminals, the performance of someone with hearing loss can be predicted over a wide range of real-world conditions, and using the "magic formula" the complete curves describing intelligibility of digits, sentences, words in sentences, and NU 6 words in noise can be predicted from one point. Next, a simple two-minute test for dead zones in the cochlea will be described, along with the "pitch diplacusis" which prevented Yehudi Menuhin from playing the violin in later years. A recent experimental "bridging" of a dead zone for one musician made it possible for him to play in tune again. Finally, a DVD showing a high school drum line will be provided each attendee. In addition to showing the 14x allowable unprotected dose its players would experience without hearing protection, it includes comments from professional musicians after years of exposure.

SIDE EFFECTS: Valsartan is generally well-tolerated. The most common side effects are:
Other important side effects are:
Rhabdomyolysis (inflammation and destruction of muscle) and angioedema (swelling of soft tissues including those of the throat and larynx) are rare but serious side effects of valsartan.
PRESCRIPTION: Yes
GENERIC AVAILABLE: Yes
PREPARATIONS: Tablets: 40, 80, 160 and 320 mg. Tablets are scored and can be split.
STORAGE: Capsules should be stored at room temperature, 15-30 C (59-86 F).
DOSING: The usual dose of valsartan for adults with high blood pressure is 80 to 160 mg once daily. The maximum dose is 320 mg daily. Maximum blood pressure reduction occurs within 4 weeks. For congestive heart failure, the usual dose is 40 mg twice daily. The doses may be increased to 80-160 mg twice daily. The initial dose after a heart attack is 20 mg twice daily. The dose may be increased to 160 mg twice daily if tolerated without side effects.
DRUG INTERACTIONS: Combining valsartan with potassium-sparing diuretics (for example., spironolactone (Aldactone), triamterene, amiloride), potassium supplements, or salt substitutes containing potassium may lead to hyperkalemia (elevated potassium in the blood) and in heart failure patients, it increases serum creatinine, a blood test used for monitoring function of the kidneys.

text: polling Kasich sitting pretty, but not home free By Howard Wilkinson • Mar 2, 2013 Twenty-five months into his term, Ohio Gov. John Kasich has finally hit the "magic number." In politics, the magic number for an elected official seeking re-election is 50 percent or more in his or her job approval rating. You do not want to be running for re-election with an approval rating below 50 percent. It doesn't necessarily mean you are going to lose, but it means you have some explaining to do the voters.

Born: March 19, 1969
Josh Workman began playing guitar at age 10 and by the tender age of 13 was already out performing in the smoke-filled bars of San Francisco's infamous North Beach. While still underage, he spent many nights hiding out in the back rooms of these clubs, as the venue owners tried to conceal him from the beat cops patrolling the area. At times, Josh's school teachers would come watch him perform into the wee-hours, always wondering if he would be too tired to make it to class the next morning. Through his high school years, Josh attended the School of the Arts during the day, all the while continuing to perform and record at night and on weekends. Some of his earliest guitar teachers included Ray Scott, Tuck Andress (Tuck & Patti), Dave Creamer and Bruce Foreman....

Discussion in 'Fly Fishing Forum' started by Bill Aubrey, Mar 20, 2012.
Kind of like folks who drive electric cars I guess.
More like people who recycle or practice catch and release. It is a mindset, that we can have an impact, either positive or negative. It is a choice. BR
I agree, and that's what the states should do... leave it as a choice.
When they do that, Lake Erie starts on fire. It is a fact that people abuse public domain because they don't own it. They will do things to the resource that they would never do to their own property. Companies with their pollution is just as bad. We do not take care of public space, look around and do a bit of research. Plenty of information out there on how the mind works with public space. I prefer lakes that are not filled with litter and pollution. BR
Sorry, I should have specified "choice" about the felt soles.
I agree with recycling. If we can, we should. As long as they try and make it easier on folks. Boiling lables off, or removing the glue from lables, before putting it into the recycle bin, just doesn't fly with most folks.
What this country really needs is, a good 5cent transmogrifier! I'm probably gonna bite the bullet this season and pick up a pair of non-felts. Gotta say, though, two years ago coming back from the St Joe on I-90, I pulled in to the watercraft check station towing my drift boat, and the "gubmint" employee asks where's the engine. I tell him "it's a drift boat" and he says "yeah, I know it's a boat, but where's the motor?". I said "you're talking to it". NOT the sharpest tool in the shed!
Felt bans will save the rivers
Man has control over the Planets temprature
Netting has no impact on fish stocks
Hatcheries will solve all the problems
WDFW does a great job
Anybody want to buy a bridge?
I find it interesting that this topic keeps coming up. The first time it was brought up on this board I thought I had better do some research as I needed new wading boots. It was also about the time that Simms discontinued making felt boots. I read a lot of information on this topic and had some pretty in depth discussions with a buddy that bought Korkers because of the ban. End result was after filtering through way too many research articles on wether or not felt caused the problem and watching my buddy fall on his ass alot wearing korkers, I waited until Simms started selling the felt soled boots again this year, bought a pair and love them. I trust felt soles much more than I do anything else and my life is way to important to subsitute something that just doesn't work for me. It's all about choices.
I wore them because they worked better, not to save the earth
"You see it is not all or nothing, but was is more disturbing is that you are excited by the fact you found infection." BR
Yep. Excited that Argentina in the southern hemisphere is now infected with invasive Didymo from the northern hemisphere where it is native, by fishermen who didn't know or didn't care. Of course what we are really concerned about is that it may affect the invasive rainbows and browns that were introduced on purpose! Same as in New Zealand, right? Any concern for the native Galaxids in New Zealand? Ever even heard of them? Well, they are trout-like species that have been decimated by the introduced rainbows and browns. New Zealand now has a recovery program for them. Might have been pretty cool to fish for them, especially the Giant Kokopu, but now we will never know. Too many folks don't bother to think and do the research before they take action. Sadly, this includes Fish and Game agencies as well.
Check out this link to see what we may have missed in New Zealand before humans tried to turn it into a trout fisherman's dream.
I am not saying these intentional changes are bad, because the jury is still out. What I am saying is that we have too often made decisions and acted before thinking things through. In my opinion, banning felt soles is one of those decisions.
Sure banning felt soles will have a very adverse effect on the environment...
Well, it may not have a VERY ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE ENVIRONMENT, but it may not solve the problem either. Rather than ban felts, jock straps or any thing else, I would rather find a solution to the problem and work from there. If felts are indeed the villan, find a procedure to disinfect them, or if all else fails, then they should be banned. But we need to know if other causes are at work here.
No, just an adverse effect on a lot of peoples pocketbook and possibly their physical well being and absolutely no effect on the environment. The crevices and laces on wading boots and neoprene waders will take care of spreading the invasives. The ban is ill conceived at best and economically and politically motivated at worst.
That's great.... but you live in freaking ALASKA!
When I fished up there, I could have walked in my bare feet and not slipped. Down here, we have this crap called algae, (that I swear is a byproduct of crap) that you almost need to where spikes. You should try fishing the Spokane river. Holy crap Batman, what is that stuff in there?!
All that aside, I'm sure some do wear them because they like them better. My point was, I wonder how many (if truly honest) switched because of their convictions, not because they liked them better.
I have always been a big fan of felt soles for wading but could never stand them for rock hopping, walking the river bank etc. so when I had to replace my old Simms two years ago I picked up a pair of Korkers to give me the option of using felt or rubber as I saw fit. Funny enough, in two seasons I have not found the need to use anything more than studded rubber. However I do carry a new set of studded felt soles with me in the event that I feel I need them.....once used I plan to label them for use in that water system only.
I think the issue is you use rational instead of reason. BR
I agree with Chuckandduck. Not enough information to make a decision to do something that may or may not have an impact on the issue. I am certain that there are more factors at work that an old guy like me walking in the river with my felt soled waders on. I suspect I could walk into the river bare a$$ed naked and the issue would not change. I also suspect that some hard decisions need to be made and some folks are going to be upset by the results. But the naked truth is seldom pleasant.
The view from my bar stool is that we have an epidemic of disease in our rivers. Four states have banned felt waders. We still have an epidemic disease in our rivers and it is spreading. We also have invasive species that have been introduced either by human intervention or natural migration and reproduction. I think it will take some intelligent study, common effort and even perhaps international cooperation to solve the issue.
I suspect that too may become an major issue.
WA State will likely implement a ban & I don't disagree with that . . . unless we will need another pass to purchase and hang in our window/on our waders.
I think the issue is you use rational instead of reason. BR
BRsnow, Today at 6:18 AMReport
Boy, you sure have me confused now! The word "rational" is defined as "consistent with and based on reason"

This Is The Creepiest Guitar You Will Ever See
The eyes. THE EYES.
This horrible, inexplicably armless mannequin guitar was created by luthier Lou Reimuller. "With this, you can perform your guitar skill on the stage with a hot babe holding in your arm. Since she's a mannequin, she won't mind how bad you pluck on her strings," according to the blog post that exposed this total nightmare to the world.
This is creepy on so many levels, but especially that this "hot babe" appears to be about nine years old…

SAN ANTONIO -- A house at the intersection ofPine Street and SandersStreetcaught fire overnight Sunday. Authorities say they suspect arson.
According to neighbors, the house used to play host to drug dealers and gangs.
In reality, everyone just sticks to themselves... The drug addicts tend to get inside abandoned houses, do their drugs, prostitution or whatever... people just kind of stick to themselves, said neighbor Raul Quintanilla.
Quintanilla says that empty houses are easy to find in this part of town, so when he learned the fire department suspected the fire was set intentionally, he wasn't surprised.
I mean, thre was a lot of crime in them... there's been rapes in them, he said. Maybe that's God's will doing the job.
The house and a similar abandoned home a mile away were both burned in the same night.

Joshua Bruch
Smart product!
I have always expected only the best from Black Diamond, and they have not disappointed me with the gridlock. Its anti-cross-loading setup is very helpful when belaying my friends. Some people just put a bunch of plastic on the biner, which can break very easily, but the anti-cross-loading mechanism is both trustable and durable (made out of solid metal). I highly recommend this to anyone who wants a cheap, safe, long-lasting, and overall excellent locker.
