In honor of America's birthday, "Fast Money" traders pick companies to own that could be around for the next 239 years.» Read More
The market has rallied despite a chorus of naysayers who think the 70 percent bounce off the March 2009 low is overdone.
Cramer looks at the charts for answer.
Only a few hours left to game Round 2 of our Fast Money Madness Tournament. Voting ends at 10am Wednesday.
Stocks ended sharply higher Tuesday after a late rally as investors cheered a better-than-expected existing-home sales report. The Dow gained over 100 points, led by Kraft and Pfizer. Health insurers gave back some of its gains after the prior session's rally.
What follows is a look at stocks in the S&P 500 displaying unusual volume in today's trading session.
Stocks pushed higher Tuesday after a $44 billion two-year note auction and a better-than-expected existing-home sales report. Health care gave back some of its gains after the prior session's rally.
When it comes to China, American business should pay more attention to the the Rio Tinto trial than the Google fight, according to the business icon.
Despite the lackluster market, there are plenty of ways to profit right now. You just have know where to look. And the Fast traders see opportunity in commodities!
Stocks advanced Tuesday after a report showed existing-home sales fell less than expected last month but health care gave back some of its gains after the prior session's rally.
Whatever you might think about Google, it's difficult to find fault with the company's decision to stop censoring search engine results in China. In doing so, the company has given the country—and the rest of the world—a clear signal that it considers some things more important than building its business. That's a message that's all too rare in this day and age, and the company's leadership deserves to be commended for it.
Stocks cemented gains Tuesday after the relief following the health care bill news. How should investors be positioned? Eric Ross, managing partner at Watch Harbor Asset Management, and Eric Marshall, director of research at Hodges Capital Management, shared their insights.
U.S. stock index futures pushed higher Tuesday following a positive close on Wall Street Monday as investors looked toward key housing data to gauge the strength of the sector.
Markets could catch a tail wind from end of quarter portfolio adjustments, even as investors turn focus to February existing home sales and the FHFA home price index due Tuesday.
The first round of Fast Money Madness has ended and the results may surprise you. Find out who's got game in this year's competition!
With health care stocks higher on Monday and reform solidly through Congress, is everything all priced in?
The mayor of Duluth, Minn., threw himself into the ice-ringed waters of Lake Superior. The mayor of Sarasota, Fla., immersed himself in a tank filled with bonnethead sharks, simply to one-up him. The mayor of Wilmington, N.C., said that he would even jump out of an airplane — with a parachute, of course.
Stocks ended higher Monday, led by health care, as passage of the health-care bill lifted uncertainty surrounding the legislation that was hanging over the market. Citigroup jumped after an analyst upgrade.
One of the most fascinating business and investing stories we've all been following is whether Google would follow through on its threat to shut down some or all of its operations in China.
Companies at the CTIA Wireless 2010 show stand a far better chance of getting their news heard and their products noticed. And when it comes to real news, no other sector offers more tech headlines than wireless.
Considering the Dems got one piece of sweeping legislation through Congress, will they able to do it again?

Chicks (not girls) in Detroit
Saturday night in Detroit was a night of animals. I wanted to share some photos because I imagine many people don't think of farms when they think of Detroit. So. First I visited some chicks at the TrumbullPlex, where Sunday's discussion was to take place (more on that later).
Alice the cat lives upstairs from the chicks.
After that, I visited the volunteer-based farm, attached to the Catherine Ferguson Academy, a school for pregnant and parenting teens. I milked goats and played with barn cats. I never knew how much goats love to love. Amazing.
And I keep passing this on the street. It seems to fit nicely with the night of animals...

I love farms!
I work on one and milk goats. I like milking goats better than the angora goats I worked with before because the former interact more with humans and are very friendly, as these pictures attest. They give goat kissies and the goat equivalent of a huggy, which is basically them leaning on you.
Also, the LaMancha looks very disgruntled by the flash; either that or she's just not quite photogenic.

Kelly wanted each page of her site to be represented by one of the seven major chakras and their purpose. Providing us with the body image, it was up to us to take it to the next level in design by manipulating the image to emulate each chakra�s energetic body.
I hope you guys like it. It has a different header design for every chakra, so I really tried out the Style Manager and it worked like a charm with different backgrounds. :)

a. make the content area transparent and
b. how you got the nav to display down the left side?
I have been looking through all the documentation here and have not fould a source for this.
Could you point me towards where that information is documented?
Posted 14 March 2011 - 11:10 AM
a. To make the content area transparent I just brought in a background and repeated it for that section. I gave my background a nice opacity on it. Then linked to the background in my css. I tink it was something like..
.builder-container-outer-wrapper {
background: url(images/container-bg.png) repeat-y;
width: 990px;
margin: 0 auto;
border: none;
display: block;
Then I had this in the builder section too
.builder-module {
<span> </span>background: transparent;
<span> </span>margin-bottom: 1.5em;
I hope this helps a little. Its been a while since I have done this one. lol
B. On this at the time I did not find a nice plugin to accomplish a left flyout menu. So I just removed the menu section and downloaded a nice PHP/Html widget plugin. Then I added my menu html to the widget and added my menu css style to the style.css :)
Since then though I have found a plugin that could work, but I have not tested it yet so I dont want to recommend it yet. I hope this helps a little for you.

What version of EV, Notes, and Domino Server?
This seems related to ECL.You use an execution control list (ECL) to configure workstation data security. An ECL protects user workstations against active content from unknown or suspect sources, and can be configured to limit the action of any active content that does run on workstations. The ECL determines whether the signer of the code is allowed to run the code on a given workstation, and defines the access that the code has to various workstation functions. For example, an ECL can prevent another person's code from running on a computer and damaging or erasing data.
If the EV Archiving ID and Signing ID are different then, give ruiqred ECL rights to Signing ID
- Open names.nsf in Domino Administrator.
- Actions->'Edit Administration ECL'.
If you want to know the minimus ECL permissions required refer "Setting up domino server archiving" guide.

The Wanted Reveal What They Love Most About Britney Spears
Britney Spears once joked that her family is "country" when she was caught driving with one of her sons on her lap. She was commenting on being from the south and doing things a little differently. However, it's the pop diva's Southern charm and her big, ear-to-ear smile that impressed those British and Irish boys from the Wanted the most when they met her. It's better than being forced to turn the other way and face the wall and not make eye contact with the star.

Clowe? Not at the current price. It's that time of year again. That time of the year where everyone begins discussing who the Rangers will target, if they are buyers or sellers, who they are willing to give up, or if any deal will happen at the deadline. Today is one of those days where the hockey gods are laughing, as it is April Fool's Day, and there are really bad jokes running rampant around the Twitter-sphere. Instead of trying to sift through the jokes on Twitter, there are a few thoughts in my head that make some sense as to how the organization will approach the deadline. Before we begin, let's remember that the Rangers are barely above .500, have been inconsistent, and have cap worries for next year with Carl Hagelin, Ryan McDonagh, and Derek Stepan as RFAs. Are the Rangers in a position to move prospects and picks for a veteran rental to put them over the top? My gut reaction is no. They won't sacrifice assets on a team that may or may not make a splash in the postseason...

A 17-year-old boy has died after being pulled from a Shakopee lake on Friday. Jason Lewis died at the Hennepin County Medical Center at around 2:30pm Saturday. Scott County Sheriff's Officials say Lewis was with family and friends at Lake O' Dowd when he began swimming across the lake and went under water for about 30 minutes. Emergency crews arrived on the scene and located Lewis in about eight-feet of water. He was a student at Shakopee High School.

As a proof of principle, researchers had to show that the behavior of the nematodes is essentially normal in the new devices, meaning that the worms crawl like they do on an agar surface. "But nematodes don't live on exposed agar surfaces in real life," Lockery said. Instead, they are found within soil and easily collected in the wild in rotting fruit.
"The beauty of this system is that it reproduces standard laboratory behavior, but it does so in a context that is probably more normal in terms of the worms' real-life environment," he said. "You get forward and reverse locomotion, and the nematodes also do the omega turn, in which a worm's head bends around to touch the tail during forward locomotion, forming a shape like the Greek omega."
The waveform device features 18 different channels, with each divided into domains with unique amplitudes and wavelengths to manipulate how a nematode moves. Instead of using posts to mimic real soil, depressions or channels provide natural areas -- even some that don't occur in nature -- for the nematodes to crawl through. "This ability to change the channels but still allow the worms to move about proved the principle in this case," Lockery said. "What we found from this is that these animals are remarkably adaptable to a wide range of situations."
The artificial soil device, Lockery said, will help to study how brains generally process sensory information and for high-through-put screening of new drugs for their biological effects. Such research, he said, could lead to new treatments for some two billion people infected annually by parasitic nematodes, as well as new tools to reduce nematode-caused losses in world agriculture.
The waveform device could enhance research on brain-behavior connections. C-elegans have only 302 neurons, compared to 100 billion neurons

Detroit's Tayshaun Prince shoots over the Atlanta Hawks' Jason Collins in a February game.
- Filed Under
With the NBA lockout postponing a typical off-season, there is much uncertainty surrounding the Pistons' roster. But we can take a look at each member of the current roster and try to predict what the future holds. Today's subject: Tayshaun Prince:
Tayshaun Prince, 31, had arguably one of the finest seasons of his nine-year NBA career in 2010-11.
He was consistent from Day 1. He averaged 14.1 points per game, and it's hard to recall games in which he didn't contribute. ...

WHO2010 Frequently Asked Questions
WHO is open to sophomore, junior, and senior women.
What if I don't get in?
Because this is a pilot program, only 46 women will be
able to live in the space during the 2010-2011 school year. We
hope that the program will be expanded in future years, so we
recommend reapplying next spring for 2011-2012 housing.
Additionally, non-residents (male and female) are encouraged to
be a part of our programming. Be on the lookout for WHO
Is this a "substance free" housing option?
WHO is not designated as a substance free dorm.
Is this a selective living group?
WHO is not a selective living group. It is a "special interest area" akin to East Meets West. There is no rush process associated with applying. It is like an SLG, however, in that the residents will be able to sponsor and host social events on campus.
What kind of social events are we talking about?
The dorm hopes to have a positive impact on the current social scene by offering alternatives to the typical parties. The dorm planning committee and residents will be able to plan open events much like SLGs. Rather than the current "all or nothing" dichotomy for social activities on campus, WHO members will have the opportunity to organize the kinds of parties and events that you want to see happen!
How is this different from the Baldwin Scholars Program?
WHO is intended to be less rigorous than the Baldwin program.
Rather than a four-year development program, this is a living
community that aims to facilitate development through a shared
living experience for women during their time of residence. We
want to provide a community where open dialogue can occur about
campus life or anything that you care most about. We hope
that by providing women with opportunities for empowerment
through mentorships, networking, leadership lessons, and
participation in relevant discussions about women's issues on and
off of Duke's campus, the dorm will address expressed campus
needs for women.
How long can I live in WHO?
As of right now, one year of housing is guaranteed to WHO residents. After the pilot year, a re-application process for 2010-2011 residents will be established.
How will men be included in the discussions about gender issues?
The programming that would be available through this living
experience would be open to all students, not just the women
living in this housing area. Though the living space is dedicated
to females, the conversation about gender issues on campus is
something that should be shared by men and women in order to make
Duke a really cohesive university.
Who is on the WHO selection committee?
Students will not be involved in the selection of the
residents; rather it will be conducted by a committee composed of
the Women's Center staff and Duke faculty, with input from
I want to study abroad next year. Can I still apply?
Living in WHO requires a full year commitment so that the residents really have time to bond during their time together.
We recommend that students apply only during years that they won't be abroad.
I'm currently studying abroad. Will this affect my application?
If you are abroad during the application period, you should still apply!

Oil theft cases may be heard
Eight still await trial in Montague ring
In early 2012, 97th District criminal trial dockets could see a few more cases from last year's major petroleum theft investigation.
As 2011 opened, a series of seven indictments were issued for suspects who allegedly took part in stealing more than $1 million in petroleum products in Montague County. They joined three other suspects who had been indicted earlier in 2010.
The December 2010 sealed indictments on seven individuals were for theft, engaging in organized criminal activity and conspiracy. Suspects were from Montague County, Wise County and the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
Charges arose from a six-month investigation by the Texas Rangers, Montague County District Attorney's Office and the Wise County DA investigator. Ranger Dewayne Dockery began investigating multiple oil theft reports, where he found more than $1 million in oil products were stolen from sites in Denton, Montague and Wise counties. A common link was found where all the oil was sold in Montague County.
Wise County Investigator Kevin Benton said the thieves used various methods to steal the oil, but the most common was for saltwater tank truck drivers to go to clandestine sites and change out the water for oil. They also would get a half a load of water and a half a load of oil.
The stolen oil was then sold at less than half-price to companies in Montague County. In another method, the drivers would obtain keys to trucks from deserted businesses at night and take them to steal the oil.
District Attorney Jack McGaughey said three of the 10 cases have been resolved and no new cases have been filed in connection with that state investigation, which he said is continuing.
"The remaining cases are on the trial docket for January," the DA said. "There is a good chance that one or two of them could be cleared next week. Others will be scheduled later."
The three cases that have been resolved were from the April 2010 indictments. Charged at that time were: James Richardson, 39, Thomas Wayne Grooms, 24 and Melvin Croxton, 69, all of Bowie. Each man was charged with engaging in organized criminal activity from the Sept. 30, 2009, theft of oil from a Republic Energy site on Bates Road. Stolen were 147 barrels of oil waiting to go to the refinery with a value of $12,000.
Croxton and Grooms faced an additional charge of burglary after breaking into a storage building at the lease and stealing numerous items.
Richardson also was indicted in 2009 on a murder charge in the shooting death of Alfred Howard in May 2008, plus an additional drug manufacturing charge.
Richardson's charge from the oil theft was dismissed in return for a guilty plea to 40 years on manufacturing a controlled substance and 25 years in the murder case.
Grooms entered guilty pleas for burglary of a building (two years in prison), engaging in organized criminal activity (five years) and burglary of a habitation (eight years).
On July 28, 2011, Croxton pleaded guilty to engaging in organized criminal activity and was sentenced to 10 years in prison, probated to 10 years. In addition, the vehicle used in hauling the stolen load of oil was forfeited to the state. He also was ordered to pay $11,220 in restitution.
Still awaiting trial are:
Roland Delbosqueof Decatur, criminal conspiracy to commit theft of property over $20,000 under $100,000;
Jesse Mosley, Haltom City and Kevin Mosley, all of Watauga, each charged with one county criminal conspiracy to commit theft of property over $20,000 under $100,000 and engaging in organized criminal activity (money laundering) proceeds of a criminal activity;
Wayland Gregory Lambert of Bowie and Albert Solis of Fort Worth, each charged with engaging in organized criminal activity (money laundering proceeds of a criminal activity);
Robert Cody Barker of Bowie, charged with counts of theft over $1,500 under $20,000; aggregated into one case for over $20,000 under $100,000. McGaughey said Barker pled guilty but a jury will decide his sentence in April.
Gus Richard Allen of Bowie is a co-defendant with Barker facing the same charge, plus an additional charge from a separate case for theft over $1,500 under $20,000. He is expected to enter a guilty plea in February.

EVGA has a very nice comprehensive utility while ZOTAC.. not so much. The specs for the two cards (EVGA vs ZOTAC) are not far off (660 Ti) so it seems plausible that one utility would work for the other unless there's more to it than that.

39 year old woman | City of Industry, CA, USA | Seeking men 36-44 within 25 miles
Happy :)
I'm a very easy person to get along with. I don't take life very seriously. I love to laugh and have a good time. I think way outside the box, as a matter of fact I don't believe the box exists :) Ok I've realized that what I had put above just doesn't say enough about me so here I go. It's a list because otherwise I'll get too technical with the flow of it. I love to eat. Don't let that little woman up there fool you. She can eat. People say I'm funny but I think witty is more accurate. I love to read. I can spend hours in a bookstore and not even notice the amount of time that has passed. I bite my nails but I'm really trying to stop. It's not where you're at but who you're with that's important. I know karate. My friends say I'm funny, sarcastic, extremely honest and loyal. I don't really know karate but a friend of a friend once saw ralph macchio at a car wash. I would like to take salsa classes :) I have 2 kids who are confident, kind hearted, quick witted and respectful. Men who are confident, not cocky, are a turn on. If I get upset at you when we are around other people, I won't make a big scene at the moment. I'll wait till we are alone to say anything. I expect the same. We all put our feet in our mouth at times and public humiliation isn't the cure. Baseball games where we can have some beer and eat hot dogs is an awesome way to spend time together. I have pretty good manners. I don't have a poker face or attitude. If I like you, you'll know :) One time a truck carrying marbles didn't shut the big rolling up door correctly and when it made a turn down the street where I lived the door flew up and a gazillion marbles came tumbling out. It was a summer day and all the kids on my block were out. It was mayhem as all of our parents tried to hold us back. Probably one of my best days ever :) I suck at telling stories. But I'm aware of it. Having your heart played with is horrible. I understand why the Grinch had that steel frame around it. Mine is only foil wrapped though. I go to school part time. So I should get my A.S in 2024. I'm looking for a man who is sincerely interested in the person I am, not the person they want to turn me into. I will never be a glamour queen but when we are in our 70's we will still be laughing, hugging, backing each other up and yes, having our own crazy version of sex. Hahaha... I don't cook. But I can make amazing sandwiches and medium rare steaks and awesome hamburgers and seafood. That's it though. Attraction is important. I weigh 105 lbs. Honesty is the best policy. Ok I weigh 110 lbs If you don't like the picture of me shooting Santa, you probably wont like the one of the Easter bunny either. I am enjoying my life and have made many sacrifices to live it on my own terms. It would be nice to have someone to share my time with though. My exercise consists of walking to my classes, walking around work all day in high heels and being the mom at the park who actually plays with her children. I'm talking monkey bars, tag, highest swinger on the swing competitions, those toys that you can spin on until you get sick (totally awesome) and i love frisbee but sometimes i get too rowdy when I play. I hope this helps you to know what you're getting into before you wink ;)

Presidential hopefuls Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama were absent from Washington when the Senate began working on the defense authorization bill. They were delivering anti-war speeches in Des Moines, Iowa instead.
"It is time to begin ending this war—not next year, not next month—but today," Sen. Clinton told a group of more than 300 people Tuesday. She said if President Bush does not withdraw troops from Iraq by January 2009, doing so "would be [her] first and most important mission as President."
Clinton has been pushing an amendment to the 2008 defense authorization bill, which dictates which defense operations the government will fund, to revoke the Senate's 2002 authorization for the war.
In stump speeches earlier this year, Clinton said that "there are no do-overs in life" instead of apologizing for her 2002 vote as her anti-war base has asked her to do. Her amendment, however, has been interpreted as a political "do-over" by her opponents.
A few blocks away, at a different Des Moines event, Senator Obama chided Clinton.
"When I opposed this war before it began in 2002, I was about to run for the United States Senate, and I knew it wasn't the politically popular position," Obama said. "But I believed then and still do that being a leader means that you'd better do what's right and leave the politics aside, because there are no do-overs on an issue as important as war."
"There are no do-overs for the families who have borne the burden," he said. Meanwhile, back on Capitol Hill, two other senators conducted their own mini presidential debate over withdrawal.
In a speech on the Senate floor, Republican presidential hopeful John McCain (Ariz.) derided Democrat amendments to the defense authorization bill, like Senator Clinton's.
"Many of my colleagues would like to believe that should any of the various amendments forcing withdrawal become law, it should mark the end of this long effort. They are wrong. Should Congress force a precipitous withdrawal from Iraq, it would mark a new beginning, the start of a new, more dangerous, more arduous effort to contain the forces unleashed by our disengagement," said McCain.
He continued, "Already the terrorists are emboldened, excited that America is not talking about winning in Iraq, but is rather debating when we should lose."
McCain alternatively suggested that "withdrawal must grow out of a political solution, a solution made possibly by the imposition of security by coalition and Iraqi forces."
Democrat Joe Biden, chairman of the Senate's Foreign Relations Committee and a candidate for President, praised McCain ("God, love him") but disagreed that a political solution could be achieved.

Jon arrived at The FARM Institute with a long agricultural career that began on a subsistence farm in northern British Columbia. Coming back to the United States in the early 80's, he owned and operated a 500 acre diversified farming operation, which included grain and a variety of livestock. For the past 20 years he has worked in the animal nutrition businesses in the Midwest, California, and internationally.
Jon's wife, Barbara "Sundy" Smith is a lifelong summer resident and graduated from the Martha's Vineyard Regional High School. They recently rebuilt a family camp on Seth's Pond, making the island their permanent home. The Previant-Smiths have six grown children between them and five grandchildren.
Jon looks forward to building on The FARM Institute's success as a pioneer in farm-based education and to being a part of the Island's growing group of local farmers.
Lindsay joins the farm as Marketing and Special Events Director. Lindsay is originally from mainland Massachusetts but has been coming to the Vineyard for the summers since her father opened his store in 1995. She graduated from UMass Boston with a double major in marketing and finance in 2010 and decided to return to the Vineyard for another summer (it always starts this way, doesn't it?) and has been living here year round ever since.
Lindsay spends her free time in the garden and turning that work into a beautiful year round pantry (jams, pickles, and canned everything!). She also loves experimenting in the kitchen and hanging out with her hound dog rescue, Stella.
Tierney came to the FARM Institute as a Farm-Based Educator in the summer of 2014. She found ways to integrate her background in dairy cattle, microgreens, and vermicomposting into the camp curriculum. Her favorite animal on the farm is Hercules, the educational steer whom she helped raise. Tierney completed her undergraduate degree in Animal Science at Colorado State University and is in the process of completing her Master's in Agriculture Education through the University of Minnesota. As the Assistant Education Director, she develops curriculum that is designed to create opportunities for visitors to interact with agriculture on a variety of levels. She is always looking to learn something new, so if you have skills to share please let her know!
Rebecca joins the FARM as the new Garden Manager and is grateful to have the opportunity to be farming and gardening on the Vineyard once again!
Rebecca grew up on a small farm in rural N.H. and first came to the island in 1990 working at both Hillside Farm and the Solviva organic greenhouse in West Tisbury before heading to western Mass. in 1995. After earning a degree in plant and soil science at UMass Amherst, she spent 7 years working as a science instructor at Hampshire Educational Collaborative in Northampton where she shared a community garden plot with her students.
Sharing her love of plants and animals with children is a passion and getting kids out of the classroom and into the garden is the most rewarding part of her work.
In addition to her experiences in teaching and farming, Rebecca has been self-employed as a landscape gardener for many years and has most recently served as a volunteer with the Leverett Elementary School Greenhouse program. Her areas of interest include growing heirloom, open-pollinated varieties, seed saving, and culinary and medicinal herbs. She also enjoys flipping compost piles, getting to know the FARM's pair of Jersey steers and watching the spectacular sunsets that stretch across the Katama plains at the end of the workday!
Sidney Morris spent the first six years of his life on a farm in Pennsylvania. He is now spending his sixties as our Farm Ambassador on Martha's Vineyard. In between, he ate sheep in Russia, rescued a chimpanzee in the Congo, taught sailing in Zambia, learned Spanish in Mexico, made a movie in Ecuador, meditated in India, and started two schools on the Vineyard. He has lived on Chappaquiddick for 34 years, raising a family and working as carpenter, photographer, coffee house manager, tractor driver, film editor, community center coordinator, sailboat captain and teacher. As Ambassador at Large of the FARM Institute, he is devoted to helping people figure out how to grow good food - happily, efficiently and sustainably.
Alec joins The Farm Institute as Farm Manager after a varied background in agriculture. He grew up on the Maine Coast and summered on Cape Cod. After a stint in Alaska firefighting, doing construction and homesteading he headed to Nova Scotia and started farming, first with sheep ( Polled Dorsets and Suffolks ), then moved into dairying with Holsteins on a 400 acre farm on the shores of the Bay of Fundy. He built a land-based aquaculture facility on the farm as well and grew Arctic Char, Steelhead trout and Atlantic Salmon smolts. Most recently he worked on a Grassland Reclamation project on Naushon Island, using Galloway cattle and Boer goats, mowing and controlled burning to control invasive plants. Alec married Annette Martel, a native of New Bedford who has long ties to the Vineyard, in May of 2014. Alec has 3 grown children from a previous marriage, all living in Canada and Annette has 2 grown sons working in Mass. Sailing, reading and birding are some of his favorite past-times but he has a passion for preserving working farmland while integrating practical conservation methods and looks forward to sharing his experiences with others here on the Katama plain at TFI.
Brae joins TFI from Bethel, CT after attending Eastern CT State University with a degree in Communication. For the past few years, Brae has been spending summers working in Kentucky as a wilderness coordinator. During her summers in Kentucky, Brae fell in love with animals and agriculture and was determined to make farming her livelihood. After working on a farm in Westchester County NY, Brae decided to come to the island to live and work full-time.
In her off time, Brae enjoys hiking, spending time with friends and family, and anything that involves the ocean.
Sundy Smith has been working as the Grant Writer at the Farm Institute since 2010, and along with most TFI staff fills in on chores, helps run the farmstand, is a substitute teacher and promotes Farm programs and products. Sundy grew up in the Midwest, but is a lifelong summer Island resident with deep family ties here and has always considered the Vineyard her real home. Working at the Farm Institute has brought together her two major professional interests, education and agriculture. In Iowa, she worked for many years in programs for children with disabilities and also had a small sheep farm outside of Iowa City. She remembers the days when there were many more sheep on the Island and she loves that the Farm Institute is using the beautiful Katama Farm grassland to help bring back the numbers of this historical…and very useful, gentle and admirable animal.

29 year old man | Los Angeles, CA, USA | Seeking women 25-35 within 50 miles
I've never believed in online dating, but after being given the chance to put out there so clearly what i want, i realize this can be fun!
I recently re-relocated back to LA after a quick stint in the NJ/NY area, and have been so consumed with work that I just now noticed that 5 months passed by and I haven't met anyone new (most of my friends have also moved FROM The LA area). In New York I had the luxury of a jam-packed city filled with all sorts of people, meeting new interesting people was a weekly event! My current routine in LA has left me with virtually no Social life. I'm ready to change that. I figure it's finally time to bite the bullet and use the internet for the one thing i never have, and that's to meet new people (and hopefully with the help of this website meet someone special). A quick bit about me: I've been lucky enough to travel quite extensively in the US and around the world, and have picked up a fascination with all things international. the minute you tell me you were born in another country i'm hooked and you won't get to leave until i've mapped out your family history. If you speak another lanaguage you are stuck until i'm able to at least say "please, thank you and cheers" like a local. While my background and education are in business, i love talking about history, culture and all of the slightly intangible things that make the world such a wonderfully diverse place. So like i said earlier, i'm looking for any social activity, i'm completely flexible on the activity part. If you want to go to dinner and a movie, GREAT! Just coffee and a deep conversation, great! A couple bottles of wine in the park, GREAT! Getting lost in the dive bars of a part of town of your preference, GREAT! Going on a random drive through the massive city we call LA, GREAT! Anything sounds game to me, as long as you are willing to put down barriers and so we both have a chance to actually meet/get to know each other relatively quickly. The only thing i probably wouldn't want to do is spend time with someone who has reservations about meeting new people because TIME IS PRECIOUS, and if we are going to use the internet to connect with each other, we might as well get to the good parts of life and find out if we can make each other happy, right :)

Pharmacy school halls alive with prospective students
About 135 candidates for the school have filtered through the building this week for interviews with the school's admission board.
More than 500 students have applied to the first professional pharmacy school in South Texas, said James Robertson, associate dean of student affairs for the College of Pharmacy.
Applications turned in to attend the pharmacy college
Top students, about half from South Texas, were invited to interview at the school this week
Potential students declined interview
Students who will receive letters of admission for the inaugural class
Aug. 14
Classes begin
After two years of delays and questions about when and if the school would open, Texas A&M Regents approved a measure in March that would transfer management of the pharmacy school to the A&M Health Science Center.
The Health Science Center will provide funding to open the school this fall - $5 million needed to hire more faculty, purchase more lab equipment and cover operational costs.
Candidates for admission were ranked based on their grade point averages and scores on the pharmacy college admissions test, Robertson said.
The top 140 students, about half from South Texas, were invited to interview this week with school administrators, pharmacy professors from other universities and local pharmacists from the private sector.
A&M-Kingsville biology major Lynn Stamps is one student who hopes to be part of the history-making class.
Stamps interviewed at the school Tuesday and said that despite concerns over funding for the school, her commitment to continuing her education there never wavered.
"The struggle for funding was frustrating and disappointing because no one was sure what would happen," Stamps said. "But everyone tried to just stay positive."
Five potential students declined to take part in the admissions interview process.
Interviews wrap up today and within two weeks, 70 students who will compose the college's inaugural class will receive letters of admission.
Classes begin Aug. 14. The Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education is expected to visit the school April 24-27.
Stamps said the school's biggest selling point for her was location.
"It will offer that small-town atmosphere while providing state-of-the-art facilities and a high quality pharmacy education," she said.
Ron Garza, president of the Coastal Bend Pharmacy Association, has taken part in the admission process, interviewing candidates.
He said meeting with students this week has made the struggles to open the college worth every one's time and effort.
"If the profession of pharmacy is in these candidates' hands, we are in very good shape," Garza said.

Originally written on Fox Sports Ohio | Last updated 3/12/13
The Bengals today re-signed DE Wallace Gilberry. His contract was to expire at 4 p.m. today, and without a new deal he would have become an unrestricted free agent. Gilberry (6-2, 275; Alabama) is a sixth-year NFL player in 2013. He joined the Bengals as a free agent on Sept. 18 of last season and played in 14 games plus the Wild Card playoff. He ranked third on the team in the regular season in sacks (6.5), and his three fumble recoveries tied for the team lead. He returned one fumble for a touchdown, and he also had one forced fumble. Gil came in and helped us right away last season, said defensive line coach Jay Hayes. Hes an active guy with a nose for making plays. Were glad to have him back, and to get him this year in time for a full run in our offseason program. Gilberry played from 2008-11 with Kansas City. He has 20.5 career sacks, with five forced fumbles and five fumble recoveries.

The decision of the Narendra Modi government to call off a meeting between the foreign secretaries of India and Pakistan, drawing a Lakshman rekha on the issue of Pakistan's official contact with Kashmiri separatists, has surprised many in India and abroad. Coming after an initial unexpected generosity of spirit in the outreach to Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, this tough stance has been likened by some to a similar pull back in multilateral trade negotiations at the World Trade Organisation after early declarations of intent to be more open to the world.
Critics of the government see inconsistency in this apparently contradictory posture. However, observers of Indian foreign policy and strategic thinking must pay closer attention to the underlying message emanating from Prime Minister Modi.
The first principle of foreign policy that Modi enunciated as PM, carrying forward the thinking of his predecessors, was that his government would give primacy to India's economic development and interests in pursuing its external relations. The second principle, which is, in fact, derived from the first, is that India would maintain good relations with its immediate neighbours because its own security and prosperity are intrinsically linked to those of its neighbours.
Having defined these two principles, Modi went on to demonstrate his commitment to good relations with India's neighbours and major powers through a series of interesting initiatives. His outreach to India's South Asian neighbours was reinforced by meaningful engagement with Bhutan, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. He reached out to Pakistan through a series of moves aimed at calming nerves all around.
He established his credentials with the US by accepting an invitation to visit from President Barack Obama, despite the earlier shabby treatment meted out to him by the US. He gave his imprimatur for signing the additional protocol required to further operationalise the India-US civil nuclear agreement. By opening up defence production to foreign direct investment and taking other steps to ease FDI inflows, he has shown his willingness to utilise economic interdependence as a way of building political and strategic relations.
However, having made these gestures, Modi has not hesitated to draw his Lakshman rekha with respect to both principles of his foreign policy. On the first principle, of placing India's economic interests at the centre of its foreign policy, he encouraged his minister for commerce and industry, Nirmala Sitharaman, to take a tough stand at the World Trade Organisation on what was viewed by India as a dubious move by the US and the European Union to get an agreement on trade facilitation before dumping the Doha Development Round.
On the second principle, good relations with neighbours, a red line was drawn by calling off the secretary-level talks with Pakistan after the latter ignored India's suggestion that the Pakistan high commissioner …continued »

Continuing their journey, the Turtles, Ninjara and Master Splinter find themselves in the deserts of Iran, where they sneak aboard an oil freighter heading for Oman. Our heroes then cross the sands of Saudi Arabia, heading for Al Hadidah, which is nearby Mecca, where the legendary Black Stone is kept. Ninjara reveals that the Stone is highly prized by thieves, and it is said to be fifth most difficult item in the world to steal. When the group arrives in Al Hadidah, a large crater in the Earth's surface, they decide to camp for the evening. While they rest, Master Splinter tells them the history of the area and that of the Black Stone and its importance to the religion of Islam. Splinter also states that since they are so close, they must at least take a look at Mecca.The next day the mutants ride out on camels, and Ninjara tells the tale of a second stone. According to legend, two stones fell - the Black Stone, as well as a White Stone. Reportedly a nomad disappeared with the White Stone before anyone else arrived on the scene. Supposedly wealthy men have been selling the stone for the past 3,000 years and have been trying to steal its Black twin - as legend has it that the man who holds both Stones will live forever.The protaganists pass by another caravan of six camel riders. Pleasant greetings are exchanged and the groups continue on their separate ways - although one of the other riders seemed to recognize Splinter...Later, the TMNT find an abandoned city, long ago forgotten when the trade routes changed. The team takes shelter, as a huge sandstorm looms on the horizon. Unbeknownst to them, a falcon has taken news of their arrival to an unsual eagle-headed mutant, who resides nearby.Back at the abandoned city, the Turtles are attacked by a group of men. As they fight, the eagle-headed mutant flies into the fray and smashes into Michaelangelo. We discover that this new threat goes by the name Al 'Falqa, and he's under the impression that our heroes have stolen the Black Stone of Mecca. The Turtles and Splinter manage to convince their flying foe that they have not taken the artifact. Al 'Falqa explains that he was sure they had taken the Stone, as it was reported that six riders had escaped with it. Suddenly, the sandstorm is upon them. Everyone tries to take cover, but Master Splinter is overcome by the force and passes out due to lack of oxygen.From a distance, the Shredder watches the scene via his binoculars and laughs.

What kind of battery for adventuring, is Lithium up to the challenge?

Alright, Just finishing some load tests on all sizes of Antigravity from 4 cell through 20 as well as the ETX18 and 24 earthX. Also been playing with a lab freezer so I can freeze batteries down to whatever specific temperature desired and as always a lead/acid battery thrown into the mix for perspective.
Other then time, any other tests anyone can think of to differentiate these very different batteries? All of them are blowing the doors off of Shorai but I'm having difficulty figuring out how to simulate durability beyond the acid test of seeing what failure rates are in a few years.
FYI until I can get videos and graphs up know that two things are obvious. earthX can really put out a lot of current for it's AH above and beyond any other battery I have tested to date and also it self heats and ramps up current output quicker then any other LiFePO4 battery I have tested to date.
_cy_ I have tested the balance and AH capacity of every battery I have tested to date down to the individual cell and both at low rates and high rates to get at the pekurret, or however you spell that word and found that despite a great body of writing on the web to the contrary, LiFePO4 exhibits a considerable pekurette, meaning the AH out is heavily dependent on the rate of discharge.
So, thoughts anyone? What can we do to get at which of these battery qualities are best before finding out the hard way???

UPDATE: Goffinet sentenced to 115 years for pregnant wife's murder
EVANSVILLE - Vanderburgh Superior Court Judge Richard D'Amour on Friday sentenced Anthony Goffinet to 115 years in prison for killing his pregnant wife.
It was the maximum sentence Goffinet, 41, could receive for stabbing Kathleen Goffinet in the chest on June 9, 2012, in a Taco Bell parking lot on North Green River Road. She was three months pregnant when she died.
The sentence was recommended by the county probation office in a pre-sentencing report that also concluded Goffinet was a high risk to reoffend.
Even with credit for the time he has already spent in jail on the charges, Indiana's policy of cutting sentences in half for good behavior, Goffinet will likely spend the next 56 years in prison — what defense attorney David Bunner said was effectively the rest of Goffinet's life.
Although Bunner asked for leniency, D'Amour told Goffinet that he did not think Goffinet was deserving of it.
"I just didn't sense any sorrow in your heart for what you have done," D'Amour said.
He also noted Goffinet's criminal history, which included nine felony and 14 misdemeanor convictions.
Vanderburgh County Prosecutor Nicholas Hermann said Goffinet had numerous arrests for domestic violence and invasion of privacy, some involving a previous relationship.
After a four-day trial last month, a jury convicted Goffinet of murder and sentence enhancements of terminating a pregnancy and being a habitual offender. The jury found him not guilty of intimidation.
It was the first time since the Indiana law allowing termination of pregnancy sentence enhancements took effect in 2009 that it had been used in Vanderburgh County. It only applies when a defendant is convicted of murder or attempted murder.
D'Amour sentenced Goffinet to 65 years for murder, 35 for being a habitual offender and 20 for terminating a pregnancy. Goffinet must serve the sentence enhancements consecutively to his murder sentence.
Sitting at the defense table before the judge Friday, Goffinet spoke to D'Amour but did not express remorse for his wife's death. Instead, he gave a confident-sounding but rambling statement about his wife's drug use and saying that it was her who attacked him.
"There's a sad injustice that she pulled a knife on me," he said.
He concluded by telling Hermann: "I'll see you at the retrial. That's what I've got to say."
Lana Baker, Goffinet's mother, said she believed her son was innocent.
"I wasn't at Taco Bell that night. I don't know what my son did but I know my son. My son is not a killer," she said. "He is not guilty of this crime. He is guilty of a lot of things in his life but this is one thing I know he did not do."
Ernest Jones, Kathleen Goffinet's father, said his daughter's loss had caused an "accumulation of sadness and devastation" in his family.
"Katie was, in my eyes, an ideal child growing up," he said.
He said the loss of her mother to cancer eventually took an emotional toll on her that led her to drug use.
He described the ups and downs of her marriage to Goffinet as "horrifying to me as a father."
Jones said that in his last conversation with his daughter, she told him that she was clean from drugs and offered to show him her latest drug screen results."
Her autopsy results confirmed what she told him, Jones said.
Goffinet fled the Taco Bell in a car with the couple's daughter, who was 3-years-old at the time, after the incident, according to court testimony. Police located Goffinet through a couple who followed him out of the parking lot, called 911 and stayed on the phone until he was apprehended.
No knife or murder weapon was ever found.
Kathleen Goffinet ran into the nearby parking lot of the former Lone Star Steakhouse yelling for help and telling witnesses that her husband had just stabbed her, according to testimony. She died at St. Mary's Medical Center.
On Friday, her stepmother, Kathy Jones, testified that when the picked up their granddaughter at the Evansville Police Department she still had her mother's blood in her hair and on her skin, and that she was naked because police had collected her clothes as evidence.
"She told us that her daddy 'cut my mommy really bad,'" Kathy Jones said.

So if the federal government isn't doing it, it isn't happening? -Lon
Bruce Haines's curator insight, May 13, 8:55 AM
Lou's on to something here. One of the most wonderful things I've observed in the past few years is the speed and persistence with which the grassroots dyslexia lobby has grown in so many state, and is now having an even greater impact with the federal government.
Lon Woodbury's curator insight, April 16, 11:20 AM
This is exactly what the old "Emotional Growth" residential schools were focusing on back in the 80s and 90s. Its a concept that was inherent in the McGuffy readers of the 19th century. As stated here, the concept just makes sense and the task is to "modernize" it into sophisticated tools. -Lon
Lou Salza's comment, April 16, 11:27 AM
Lon, I loved the comment you made! Still have the McGuffey readers on my shelf at school. I browse them often and wonder what happened to our focus on character as the foundation on which schools ought to be building learning communities.
