Change of pace: Brunswick's Priest faces challenge in House District 63
BRUNSWICK — A local real estate broker is challenging incumbent Rep. Charles Priest, D-Brunswick, in state House District 63.
Republican John Bouchard said he is running because he wants to take the state into a better financial direction.
"I want to be able to bring my managerial experience to Augusta to move the state forward," Bouchard said.
Bouchard, who has a wife and two grown children, graduated from Husson College with a bachelor's degree in business administration. He then worked in commercial construction and his father's real estate business.
In 2007 , he became a licensed real estate agent with Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in Brunswick. Bouchard said his company primarily works with commercial and rental properties, including the Affordable Midcoast Housing units on McKeen Street.
In addition to serving on the local Republican Committee, Bouchard said he also volunteers for Meals on Wheels and the Mid Coast Hunger Prevention Program.
Priest, who is seeking his fourth consecutive term in House District 63, was uncontested for re-election in 2008 and 2010. The representative previously served in the House for three terms from 1984-1990.
The Democratic candidate is a retired U.S. Navy lieutenant, a Vietnam War veteran, and a lawyer in private practice. He is married and has two adult daughters.
During the last Legislature, Priest co-chaired the Joint Standing Committee on Judiciary and was a member of the Joint Standing Committee on Insurance and Financial Services.
Besides his legislative duties, Priest has also served as the chairman of the Brunswick Town Council, on the Brunswick Cable TV Committee, the Augusta Conservation Commission and the Brunswick Sewer District.
Priest said he is a moderate who believes in quality, affordable health care; a wisely balanced budget, and the government's role in creating jobs and providing assistance to those who need it the most.
"A job is the best welfare program," Priest said.
Business development
When asked about what he would do to improve Maine's business environment, Bouchard said he would push for lower energy costs, competitive health insurance and the streamlining of state regulation processes.
To illustrate the state's current problems, Bouchard cited a friend in Phippsburg who had to wait three years to get his project's approval from different government agencies.
"We have to have people (in Augusta) who are proactive," Bouchard said.
As for development at Brunswick Landing, the Republican candidate said he wishes there was more transparency at the Midcoast Regional Redevelopment Authority, the organization charged with attracting businesses to the former Brunswick Naval Air Station.
"The board in Brunswick has no idea what's going on," Bouchard said. "(MRRA) has their own little agenda," and that affects which businesses come in and which don't.
Priest said he thinks the state needs to push for greater investment in infrastructure and education, especially for adults, along with more predictable tax rates and regulatory polices.
"Businesses need to feel there is a long-term policy that supports them, so they can plan better," the incumbent said.
Priest said he and Sen. Stan Gerzofsky, D-Brunswick, have worked hard to bring more jobs to Brunswick Landing, and he wants to see more support for that direction.
"I feel the government has a place in our lives, a role in creating jobs and helping those who need help and encouraging them to find a useful place in society," Priest said.
Social welfare
The Democratic legislator said he believes welfare programs should allow its recipients to live in "reasonable comfort," but they should ultimately focus on those who need it most.
Bouchard agreed, but the two candidates disagree on how to address the issue.
Recipients who are above the federal poverty level and have a job, the Republican candidate said, should be phased out in a five-year plan, removing 20 percent of the benefits they receive every year until none are left.
"We need to have (the Department of Health and Human Services) work for people who really need it," Bouchard said. "They need to give more to people who don't have enough. They're not getting all the benefits they really need because" others who don't need the benefits as much are taking their piece of the pie.
"You need to get people good jobs so they can get off social welfare programs," the republican candidate said. "When people work, when they make their own money, they feel good about it."
Priest said the state needs to focus on providing various services that will encourage people to train for jobs, so they no longer have to be reliant on the state's welfare programs.
"We need to concentrate on training them for jobs and providing them with a support system," the incumbent said.
He said he would like to see greater support for day-care programs, too, so mothers can train for better jobs.
Alternative energy
While both candidates expressed support for alternative energy, Bouchard was more cautious in his approach, saying that he doesn't support mandates and subsidies to encourage growth in that sector.
"I'm not a big advocate of the government investing in alternative energy," Bouchard said. "I would rather see the private sector develop it. It comes back to making jobs."
Bouchard said he's a big supporter of natural gas and hydro power. And despite concerns from environmentalists about the latter, he said modern technology has made it more realistic to incorporate with existing ecology.
Priest said he also supports the further development of natural gas, but he also wants to see government subsidies for alternative energy sources.
He said part of the problem right now is that some of the technologies are too expensive for businesses and homeowners to invest in. But he recognizes the government can play a role in eventually ushering those sources of electricity into the mainstream.
"If you look back on our history, government was involved a lot with our industries. There's always been an involvement," Priest said. "The point is to find when the investment is useful and when it is not."
Same-sex marriage
Bouchard said he will not vote for Question 1, the referendum to legalize same-sex marriage.
"It's because of my belief in God that I believe it's between a man and a woman," the Republican candidate said. "It doesn't set a good example" if you have two moms or two dads."
Priest said he will vote yes on Question 1, noting that he was a co-sponsor of a 2010 bill to legalize same-sex marriage.
"I think gay couples need the same protections as straight couples," Priest said. "The legislation is crafted so it doesn't interfere with religious denominations."
As for Bouchard's parenting argument, Priest said, "the studies haven't pointed that out. What's important is that both parents love (their children)."
Election Day is Nov. 6.

Dots Not Feathers
Forgive Dots Not Feathers for opening up its sparkling and sweet full-length album, A Thousand Novels, with a hissy recording of the philosophy of Ralph Waldo Emerson. The band doesn't need such transcendentalist clichés. It has figured out how to will its own way in the indie-folk world. Yes, all the trappings are there — the well-practiced but effortless harmonies, the baritone uke, synthesizer drums and trilling acoustic guitar and the droning cello lines — but how fresh and sunny and convincing they sound. What makes Dots Not Feathers special is its arrangements, the way a song like "Victoria" darts and rises and meditates, shape shifting but still demanding you hum along with its hopeful melody. (RK)
8:30 p.m., The Over/Under Bar & Grill Patio
The Vondrukes
The Vondrukes has a somewhat regal name, but the band's sound is pure beer-soaked flannel. Call it alt-country if you wish, but only if your definition of that cursed genre includes spastic cow punk and head-banging metal theatrics. On its debut self-titled EP, the band has a blast knocking back a case of homage to everything from Black Sabbath to Uncle Tupelo to Reverend Horton Heat. The manic fusion sometimes borders on the paranoid, as if singers and songwriters Jeff Griswold and Bob McKee believe they'll never shake their rock & roll demons. So they get drunk and turn up and play rockabilly and surf punk loud and fast enough to send the hounds back to Hell with tails between their legs and crushed tall-boy cans between their defeated teeth. (RK)
The Jump Starts
It's not as if singer and guitarist Justin Johnson is exactly hurting to have his songs heard; as the lead singer of Pretty Little Empire, he's become a standout presence with his impassioned performances. But alongside drummer Sarah Ross, Johnson also performs in the Jump Starts, and the simple two-person lineup gives space for his more direct, pop-friendly songs. With some raggedy acoustic guitar strums and Ross' often funky rhythms, the Jump Starts has the charm and panache of a bedroom-pop project — at times raw and unpolished but never short on feeling or heart.

Tight Pants Syndrome
Last summer, Tight Pants Syndrome emerged from another short hiatus with yet another new lineup. Fortunately, not much else has changed about the collective's all-encompassing approach to pop. Buzzing synths still peacefully coexist with jangling twelve-string guitar licks and doowop rhythms and harmonies, sometimes all at once. If anything, Tight Pants Syndrome has expanded its reach. (Yes, that's a harp in "New Hit Record," among other things.) The result is a bigger, more impressive sound reminiscent of the New Pornographers' glorious excess. But for all the pomp, Tight Pants Syndrome retains the charm of a bunch of friends bashing out tunes together. They're just really good at it. (BM)
10:45 p.m., The Dubliner (Main Floor)
Magnolia Summer
Chris Grabau's Magnolia Summer collective had a big year, from playing the inaugural LouFest to a February tour of the UK including a performance on BBC Radio 2. Undertow Records issued a deluxe edition of its 2008 release Lines From the Frame with its 2010 EPs The Slip That Leads Into the Fall and The Current Moves, which promptly sold out. Despite a lineup of musicians that pull duty in bands such as the Bottle Rockets, Grace Basement and the Linemen, Magnolia Summer continues a steady schedule of live dates that showcase a sound both orchestral and rootsy, where string sections, roaring guitars and slide guitar cohabitate. It all frames Grabau's rich lyrical tales of murder ("Rangeline"), loss ("Short Wave Decline") and dread ("To Better Days"). (RW)
Warm Jets USA
Jason Hutto's bands have never lacked for pop hooks, but the latest fuzz-pop project helmed by the music-community mainstay is particularly tuneful and well produced. Warm Jets USA's "Records" contains lovely, jangly riffs, while "Peach Fuzz" is a classic, two-minute loud-soft-loud burst. "Dumb" is even better, a jolt of greased-up '70s hot-rod rock; it goes down like a shot of whiskey. If you're a fan of unheralded, criminally underappreciated indie-noise bands from the '90s, Warm Jets USA is right up your alley.
—Annie Zaleski
9:15 p.m., Lucas Park Grille (Patio)
Jon Hardy & the Public
Though the public largely recognizes this pop band from its acclaimed 2007 full-length, Working in Love, the Public has gone through extensive lineup changes — just Jon Hardy and Glenn LaBarre remain onboard since the Working days. This year's A Hard Year EP marks a return to bittersweet lyrics — wistful memories, cynicism, falling back into old patterns and ultimately hope — all backed by spirited piano and drums. The band's tapped into a sound that the public (and the Public, in whatever incarnation) enthusiastically gets behind. (RFT)
Karate Bikini
Guitarist and singer Tim McAvin has been playing his smartly nuanced style of pop song around town for so long that his imprimatur has benefited bands like the beloved '90s combo Lydia's Trumpet and power-pop maestros Tight Pants Syndrome. But Karate Bikini has given McAvin the chance to create a true St. Louis supergroup: He enlisted guitarist John Horton (Bottle Rockets, Magnolia Summer), saxophonist Michelle Rae (Jon Hardy & the Public) and a few other scene vets to play clever, melodic rock & roll with some obvious nods to the past ("Kimberly Rew," a song about the Soft Boys/Katrina and the Waves guitarist, is a live highlight). Look for the studio release Sauce of the Apple Horse later this year. (CS)

text: Immediately following graduation, a team of 16 Clearwater students travelled to Haiti on a mission trip led by Mr. Richard and Dr. Mary Draper, Vice President for Academic Affairs. Together with over 900 pounds of materials, luggage, and gifts, they travelled to Haiti on May 9. The goal of this ten-day trip was to serve in local schools, to give the gospel to Haitian children, to demonstrate the love of Christ, and to minister to missionaries Kathy Gouker and Alice Wise. What a privilege we have had to spend time with and get to know these wonderful servants of the Lord, said Corianne, a 2011 graduate and member of the team. While we came to serve, we have also been served and ministered to on this trip. We are so thankful for the amazing opportunity God gave to each of us to come to Haiti to share His love with the dear people here and to leave a piece of our hearts in this land. In addition to sharing the gospel with their newfound Haitian friends, the team was able to help the teachers and missionaries at the EBAC Christian Academy and Orphanage of Cap-Haitien, Haiti. Each day, the group assisted in the school, taught in the chapel time, assisted in the clinic in the compound, and helped with work projects. Once school was over, Vacation Bible School began. In the evenings, they helped students with homework, played board games, studied the Book of Philippians, or taught English conversationally. Additionally, Saturday was a full field day of outdoor games and water fun. Dr. Draper said, I think we touched every childs life who lives at EBAC and many street children who just hang around. We played board games with them, completed Bible studies with them, and talked with them. We held their hands and loved them. My favorite memory is the children singing, All I Ever Want to Be.

China's Energy Intensity Cuts Good News for the Climate
China's Energy Intensity Cuts Good News for the Climate
In the run-up to the world's leaders gathering in Copenhagen this December to negotiate a new climate treaty, there is plenty of talk, and even some action, from some of the world's largest countries in addressing carbon footprints on a national level.
In the U.S. we had the House of Representatives pass the Waxman-Markey climate bill at the end of June, which aims to cut the country's greenhouse gas emissions by 17 percent by 2020. And yesterday, China's National Development and Reform Commission made an announcement saying that the country had cut its energy intensity -- the amount of energy used per unit of GDP -- by 3.35 percent in the first six months of 2009.
While China's new energy intensity figures show an improvement over recent numbers, it still represents a slide from earlier improvements. From a Reuters article on the announcement:
China's government is pushing to make the country more efficient to reduce reliance on overseas oil and gas and curb damaging pollution from power plants and factories -- even as its strong growth pushes up overall energy consumption.
The country has set a goal of cutting energy intensity by 20 percent over the five years to 2010. Officials abandoned a yearly reduction target of 4 percent after falling short in 2006, but the government has stuck to the overall aim.
Its efforts appear to be gathering steam after an unsteady start, and in 2008 energy intensity fell nearly 5 percent.
For comparison's sake, we track the energy intensity of the U.S. economy in our annual State of Green Business report, and between 2006 and 2007, the U.S. cut its energy intensity by about 3.26 percent, from 2.25 BTUs per dollar of GDP to 2.16 BTUs per dollar.
China's reductions are good news, of course -- especially given additional news today that China may become the world's largest manufacturer by 2015, taking that title from the U.S. (much as it also took the title of the world's largest emitter of CO2 earlier this year).
In addition to improving its energy intensity, China also recently took advantage of an economy-related slowdown in energy demand to shutter some of its least efficient power plants as a way of reducing pollution and greenhouse gas emissions.

The man accused of killing three women, including an Adams Run convenience store clerk, is back in jail, after a failed suicide attempt, according to authorities.
Clarendon County Sheriff Randy Garrett said that Jeffrey N. Eady, 30, of New Zion, tried to slit one of his wrists Monday while jailed at the detention center.
Eady used a plastic wrist band that is issued at the jail to keep track of inmates, Garrett said. He spent a few hours at the hospital and was released back into the custody of the jail, where he remains under suicide watch.
Eady was arrested on Saturday after a multi-state man hunt ended in Florida.
He's accused of killing 77-year-old Sadie Brown and 65-year-old Maybell White, both of Clarendon County, and Adams Run resident Crystal Johnson, 37.
Brown and Eady are second-cousins and she was living with his father at their home on 527 Subdivision Road in New Zion, authorities said. Jeffrey Eady would drive her to doctor's appointments, according to an incident report.
Garrett said Brown was the first of three women killed.
After his arrest, Eady agreed to show Clarendon County Sheriff's investigators where her body was, Garrett said. He was placed in the back of a patrol car and he directed them to a stretch of forest near Firetower Road in New Zion, where she was found dead, he said.
An autopsy was completed on Monday. Garrett expects to release the results of how she was killed later today. Brown had been reported missing last week.
While authorities were looking for her, Eady allegedly shot and killed 65-year-old Maybell White on Thursday at a recycling center across the street from his home. Eady went inside the small office shed, killed White, rolled up her body in a rug, and stole her car, according to Garrett.
Later that day, he stopped at the D&V Convenience store south of Ravenel in Charleston County, where he robbed and killed the clerk, Crystal Johnson, 37, of Adams Run, authorities said.
Investigators tracked him to Mexico Beach, Fla., where he was arrested. He was then taken back to Clarendon County to face the charges.
The same gun was used to kill all three women, according to Garrett. U.S. Marshals recovered that weapon when they arrested him in Florida, he said.
Third Circuit Solicitor Ernest Finney said he expects to meet with investigators and 9th Circuit Solicitor, Scarlett Wilson, on Thursday to discuss how and where to prosecute Eady.

Jeffrey Eady, 30, was arrested in Mexico Beach, Fla. He's currently detained at the Clarendon County jail.×

Emily kept herself in the public arena, regardless of the criticism. One of her major accomplishments, and quiet successes, can be seen in the design of MetroLink.
When the plans for the light-rail system began to take shape in the '80s, Emily became intricately involved. "She was the one who almost single-handedly led the effort and said, 'If you're building this, then it could look nice, too,'" says Traurig.
Emily had to confront the intransigence, and lack of imagination, of bureaucratic skepticism. Recalls Traurig, "Bi-State kept responding, 'We want it on budget and on time,' and she kept saying, 'It could look nice, too.' She really led that crusade, single-handedly again, and said, 'If you have artists, artists can be on design teams. They can design bridges. They can design cars. They can design rights-of-ways. They can design canopies' -- things that St. Louis had never heard of and certainly, as you can imagine, Bi-State had never heard of.
"You've met Bi-State, I take it?" Traurig asks knowingly. "You can imagine. They had no interest in having artists on. The architects and engineers had absolutely no interest in having artists tell them what to do or how to do it. She just stayed with it and stayed with it and stayed with it and fought those battles and politically kept going to bat for the idea that artists will bring something special. And they did."
Working behind the scenes, Emily made her mark on one of the region's great success stories. MetroLink's unobtrusive color scheme of blue and gray, the recurring grid patterns, the gentle canopies at each station, the recurring Y-shaped electrical posts, the softly composed passenger cars -- the simplicity of form, line and color found in the minimalist art Emily champions is integral to the light rail's design. After 10 years, the stations and cars haven't lost their luster, and graffiti and vandalism are minimal. MetroLink works, and it looks good, too. With a stylistic sleight of hand, Emily managed to insert a touch of modernism into everyday St. Louis and, as is her way, deflected the recognition from herself.
Her next urban intervention would be much more dramatic and would inextricably be tied to her name. The Foundation's triumph now overshadows, and calls for a serious reconsideration, of the successes and disappointments of the past.
After the exhibition of the Pulitzer collection at the Fogg and SLAM in 1988, the Pulitzers came to realize that their two St. Louis homes lacked the space required to view many of the large-scale works in their possession. With this in mind, they purchased a former auto garage in Grand Center, a district of the city in which both took an active interest in reviving. Formerly the Great White Way of St. Louis, Grand Center held fond memories for Joe, who attended the theater there in his youth when the area was all aglitter.
They began the search for an architect, and Serra was the first to refer them to the work of Ando. At that time, the architect had designed buildings only in his native Japan, years before he would receive international acclaim by winning the Pritzker Award -- the pre-eminent accolade in an architect's career -- in 1995. James Wood, director of the Art Institute of Chicago and longtime friend of the Pulitzers -- he is now on the Foundation's board of trustees -- spoke encouragingly of Ando as well. The clincher was the referral of Ellsworth Kelly, who sent the Pulitzers photographs of exteriors and interiors of Ando's buildings, in one of which a Kelly painting was exhibited.
"With one voice," as Emily has said in press interviews, she and Joe proclaimed, "This is the architect we want to work with."
Ando and his wife flew from Japan to St. Louis to meet the Pulitzers; Emily and Joe met them at the airport. At the country house, Ando was captivated by Serra's "Pulitzer Piece." A sublime union of sensibilities emerged: the Pulitzers, Ando, Serra, Kelly -- modernists who still believed in beauty and its power to change lives in a world that had turned a cool postmodern shoulder to such outdated notions. They make up the least ironic group of collaborators to be assembled at the close of the 20th century.
Joe became ill and would die of cancer in 1993 at the age of 80. Emily was alone, with enormous resources and persistent responsibilities: the Pulitzer legacy. She was appointed director of the board of the Post-Dispatch. Traurig remembers that this was a difficult transition for Emily at first. "When she took on the job of going to work, she said, 'I don't know what I'm supposed to do when I go there, but I have an office with a shelf with some stuff.' But she figured it out. She had been involved. She hadn't been housewifey. She knew what the paper was about."
William Woo, whom Joe had selected as his successor as editor, gives his former boss high marks. He didn't see the uncertainty Emily masked. "She took that job very, very seriously," says Woo from his office at Stanford University, where he teaches journalism. "She was determined to be a good and competent director in her own right. She brought significant skills to the job. She brought significant intelligence to the job. She had been in a very tough world of art, with all its politics. She was certainly familiar with a large institution, which would be the St. Louis Art Museum, so she knew how institutions worked. She was bringing an individual perspective to that board.

You will need:
1. An empty CD box
2. 3-5 Paperclips
3. Some wires
4. 1/4" jack/adapter with cable
5. Duck tape
6. Plasticine cat to oversee you activities
Step 1: Attach paper clips to make it bouncy
2 .Put a bent paper clip inside, as shown.
3. Tape it to the box with duck tape.
Now if you try to close it, it will bounce back, like a pedal. The problem is that it will snap closed if you press hard enough. We resolve this problem in the next step.
Step 2: Make it a pedal
2.Now press on the cover and see if it bounces back with enough force.
3.Add more paperclips on the inside to your satisfaction.
Note that you probably won't get enough force to sustain the weight of your foot, unless you have really hardcore paperclips.
Step 3: Attach the wires
2. Firmly attach a paperclip to each wire by twisting, wrapping around, tying a knot, etc. (just don't solder =)
3. Now duck tape the wires with paperclips to the CD box so that the paperclips touch when the box is closed, and don't touch when it's open.
In video form: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ca09WBLxYXQ
Made my day! :D
"Note: it is impossible for you to ever screw up anywhere in this instructable. If you "short" the wires, you will simply get a pedal which is always pressed, which might be useful or not depending on the style of your music. So you and your instrument are safe, unless you try to somehow plug the pedal into an electricity socket while holding the wires."
Instructions not clear, got nose stuck in instrument...
Joking aside, Nice ible :)
I used and old fashioned tin with a bullfrog clip and it feels very sturdy!
If you have a Yamaha keyboard, note that it can accept both kinds of pedals (the ones which create the connection on push down as well as the ones that break it). When you turn the keyboard on, it looks at the state of the pedal and treats this as "pedal off".
works awesomely! now i just need to find a good spring..... ( i dont think those paperclips will last long).....

Flash mob robbery: D.C. store robbed
- I bet this has inspired all sorts of flashing. (Photo: Flickr/Wonderlane)
And here you thought flash mobs were harmless events that, when not ruined by TBD, allow us to laugh at politicians or theatre freaks, or to protest something or other. Not so! A flash mob broke out at a Victoria's Secret in Georgetown yesterday, and instead of dancing on the counters or breaking out in song, they stole a bunch of panties and bras.
But wait. According to Fox 5, there were just four suspects — two men and two women, who loaded baby strollers and shopping bags with stolen merchandise. Since when do four people constitute a "flash mob"? I guess if you're Fox, it does. While Merriam-Webster doesn't specify a size, we always understood flash mobs — and mobs in general — to involve a large group of people.
When it comes to these supposed flash mob robberies, D.C. doesn't have it as bad as Chicago, where 29 people were arrested in connection with "flash" assaults and robberies. So much for social media bringing us peace on earth.

What does Freedom Mean to Me?
But in honor of Juneteenth, and in support of what I hope will be thousands of FreedomTweets, let me share...
Freedom is a legacy from my grandparents who left Europe so their children and grandchildren might have better lives. I owe it to them to work towards ensuring that others have the same opportunities to come to this country they had.
I rejoice that the descendants of those who did not come freely to this nation, who were enslaved by my ancestors and many others, are today free to join in building a more perfect union. I celebrate their voices and contributions.
Freedom is choice. I am free to worship as I wish; free to live where I choose; free to choose my friends and communities; free to speak my mind; free to help where I see a need. I am free to do all or none of these things as long as I leave others the same freedom.
I rejoice in each step toward healing the bitter rifts from slavery, ethnic and religious prejudices. I celebrate every hand that reaches out through fear and anger, and every hand that accepts it.

You have stated so well that when freedom comes we can begin to heal.

The foreign exchange market is a global venue for the trading of currencies at large international banks. It operates through financial institutions that assist international trade and investment through currency conversion.
Fluctuations in rates occur because of gross domestic product, inflation, interest rates, and other conditions. The market operates 24 hours, except weekends, which enables dealers to trade the foreign exchange at all hours and utilize the online market for business, as well.
Here are three essential tips on how to trade foreign exchange online.
1. Open a brokerage account
This is the first step in trading. Before opening an account, figuring out which account is going to work best for you is crucial. How much leverage the account controls is central to understanding the amount of control in the market.
Most accounts have a factor of 50:1, with some as high as 250:1. This allows for a large gain with a smaller investment, but can also be a negative if the trade moves against the investor, so determining the leverage you desire in the beginning is important for the investment.
2. Understand the two ways to trade in the market
You can trade by selling and buying currency or by purchasing derivatives to track the movements of specific currency pairs.
Buying and selling pairs works the same way as buying and selling stocks. You hope the currency pair changes favorably. Derivative products set a rate to purchase a currency pair before a set time.
3. Understand the various types of orders
Traders can obtain a currency at the current exchange rate it is trading at, which is a market order. A limit order will allow traders to specify a certain entry price.
A take-profit order can lock in the profit of a currency exchange rate if the trader believes that the rate will not climb above a determined point. You can choose a rate and the take-profit order will automatically close the position to lock in the profits.
The same can be done for losses with a stop-loss order. The trader can choose a stopping point for the rate exchange so as to minimize losses.
Knowing key ways to trade foreign exchange online can be helpful before you make your first trade. It's less likely to become an impulse trade, though it's all done online.
Having a trading mentor can also assist you in the process of understanding what to do and what to avoid to secure investments and minimize losses.

"This is the best, easiest summer drink EVER!"

1 gallon
3 (3 ounce)
gallon-size tea bags
1 cup
fresh raspberries
1/2 cup
white sugar
1/2 cup
powdered lemonade mix (such as Country Time®)
ice cubes
This recipe is SOOOooo good!! Wow! Okay, I did make some changes... I used one gallon sized tea bag (I felt that three was a *little* excessive!), I also didn't boil the whole gallon of water (just a little and filled the pitcher up the rest of the way with cold) I also didn't have any lemonade powder, so I used the frozen stuff. Thanks so much for the recipe! I'll make it again for sure! :)
This recipe was pretty good, lots of people enjoyed it. I found that I needed to leave the tea bags in way longer, or else it doesn't taste like tea at all. We left them in overnight, and we used all three of them. We also added a little bit more sugar, it was quite tart. The raspberry flavour was really really good. Next time, we are going to try it with real lemons instead of powdered lemonade, I think it might improve the taste a little bit. Great recipe! Thanks for sharing

This was good, but the next time I make it I will only steep my tea bags for 3 minutes rather than five. I found that after 5 minutes, the resulting tea was a little bitter for my taste. I used Splenda and Crystal Light lemonade powder to make this sugar-free for my diabetic hubby.
I made so many changes, that I'm not even sure it's the same recipe!
Anyway, these changes where made for 7 servings (so I can make 2 liters, metric system)
7 regular tea bags, 1/2 cup of frozen raspberries (a few blueberries also found their way inside), 4 teaspoons honey (I hate overly sweet taste, and always order my ice tea unsweetened...) and no lemonade mix, just about a teaspoon of lemon juice. I brought the water to boil, cooked the everything together for 3 min (the raspberries were defrosted prior) and then let it sit for another 4. YUM YUM YUM!!!
I used two gallon size tea bags, and the juice from 3 fresh lemons instead of the powered lemonade mix. Since I had extra fresh raspberries, I froze a few of them inside the ice cubes. Also froze some fresh lemon pieces inside some ice cubes. I think it added to the presentation. Definitely found a new, refreshing summertime drink. Thanks so much for sharing. Made for this week's Recipe Group.
This was the recipe group selection for this week. A very refreshing for a summer night. I noticed our raspberry package was only 6oz. so we didn't quite have a cup. We used two of the gallon sized bags and the juice of three real lemons since we don't drink the powdered stuff. We also tried it with a shot of vodka...think we found us a new summertime beverage.
Instead of making the tea as the recipe stated, I made Sun Tea (ten tea bags, full gallon sun tea pitcher). Near the end of the afternoon, I then added the raspberries (I used equal amounts frozen UNSWEETENED raspberries as fresh raspberries aren't quite in season yet), sugar and instant tea mix. This is one of the best ice tea recipes I have made in a long time. We all LOVED it. Great twist on sun/iced tea. This recipe's a keeper.
DELICIOUS! I added plain lemon juice to this instead of the lemonade mix. Refreshing! MMMMmmm!

What Can Be Patented?
Professor Mark Lemley spoke to the Daily Journal's Craig Anderson about the Court's consideration of what can be patented:
For the first time in nearly three decades, the U.S. Supreme Court will consider in oral arguments Monday what is patentable subject matter, in a case that has many intellectual property experts uneasy - and uncertain - about what standard the justices will adopt.
The court has, in recent years, made a series of decisions that have curtailed the legal rights of patent owners by making it easier for defendants to argue that a patent should not have been granted or has not been infringed.
Now the court is wrestling with fundamental questions of whether patents involving methods of doing business are entitled to the same government protections as a new drug or technological device.
"My worry is that because the court wants to reject Bilski's patent, it will create an arbitrary rule or draw silly standards," said Mark Lemley, a Stanford Law School professor who co-authored one of the dozens of amicus briefs filed in the case.
"We're better off with a vague standard that can be used to eliminate a few bad cases than a bright-line rule," he added.
"People will be more than usually interested, because we have no idea what they're thinking at all," Lemley said. "I have less confidence in my ability to predict what the Supreme Court will do in this case than in any other case."

It has been said that after visiting the Emerald Isle no one ever really leaves - and after viewing the rolling green hills and rugged coastlines it isn't hard to believe. While Dublin is increasingly becoming more modernized and cosmopolitan, its historical roots can still be observed in the old Georgian architecture, historic museums and soaring cathedrals. The heart of Ireland resides in the rural countryside, and although Ireland most often conjures images of a quaint and charming villages, in reality it offers a vast array of historical treasures and natural terrain. Discover ancient ruins, medieval castles and traditional stone cottages scattered among rolling green hills or explore the dramatic coastline, which ranges from serene, picturesque harbors to the plummeting Cliffs of Moher.

There was magic in the air on Nov.12, when a group of 12 senior level teacher candidates from Charleston Southern University assisted Spann Elementary, a local PDS (professional development site) in selecting the winners of the PTA Arts Reflections competition. The theme of this years competition was The Magic of a Moment.
According to senior elementary education major Amanda Vazquez: Thats exactly what my fellow classmates experienced: tons of magical moments through students literature, photography, dance, music, and visual arts. As a group, we went through each entry, sharing with each other what made that students moment magical. From getting a new puppy, to meeting their dad for the first time, the students expressed special moments through the creative arts. Seniors Amanda Vasquez and her colleague Ashlynn Meyers served as student coordinators.
The future teachers deliberated over every entry, using a rubric provided by the National PTA to evaluate creativity, skill, and adherence to the theme. Dr. Linda Karges-Bone, the professor coordinating the project with PTA Reflections Committee chair Mrs. Lisa Jolly noted: The future teachers evaluated the work using their own experiences, but tried to see the world through the eyes of children.
Charleston Southern University is a nationally recognized and accredited liberal arts college that prepares competent, caring, committed teachers dedicated to learning, leading, and serving.

Easter cocktail?
Hi Everyone,
I'd like to make a beverage for everyone coming over for Easter. Kind of like a punch but with booze. I'm serving a pasta primavera for a first course followed by ham, simple roasted potatoes and a slaw and for dessert I'm doing a fresh strawberry pie.
Any recommendations would be helpful.

I, along with the members of New Light Christian Fellowship, extend an invitation to you to come grow with us. We look forward to worshipping and glorifying His name with you.

Setophaga tigrina
IUCN Conservation Status: Least Concern
Christopher L. Wood
The Cape May Warbler breeds across the boreal forest of Canada and the northern United States, where the fortunes of its populations are largely tied to the availability of spruce budworms, its preferred food. Striking in appearance but poorly understood, the species spends its winters in the West Indies, collecting nectar with its unique curled, semitubular tongue.
