Becca, I agree that the military/government will always have the bigger guns.
Organized militaries tend to lose when they're fighting guerillas, as America lost in Viet Nam.
Well, bears are my favorite animals, especially Grizzly bears. So, I am all for me having the arms of a Grizzly bear replacing my own or at least the left arm. :)
I have to laugh at those comments that take the line that the populace need to be armed in order to oppose armed oppression by the state. Oppression of the people starts long before the armed force stage comes in, please go and look at history. Oppression is carried out via the government taking control of communication (media) either directly or indirectly (suppression of stories under laws of the state - the Patriot Act for instance) and the state monitoring of communication as is happening under the ever expanding NSA, DHS and FBI. The control of information to the public (SOPA etc) It is done via control of the control of food production and the movement of food, I suggest you take a look at the new Food Safety law in the US, some rather interesting clauses there. It is done by the control of personal wealth and the flow of money, here I would suggest your governments wide ranging powers to sieze any asset they even think maybe due to illegal activity would fall under this particular control, but watch out for new controls on the movement of money out of the USA in the coming year. Of course they already monitor all money movement to muslim countries from the USA.
If you think owning a gun is going to stop you being oppressed you are wrong, the oppression has already been in progress for over a decade and its drip, drip, drip implementation will continue so that by the time most realise it has already happened having the right to bare arms will be a mute point.
Judith vd R
Oppression does exist in almost every society on this planet and we have our fair share. When the shit hits the fan in a very bad way I do want to retain my collection of firearms. They could be instrumental in one's survival in a world turned upside down. Rocks, slingshots, and spears won't past the effectiveness mustard.
Judith, you recognize a few realities that many people don't but the oppression began earlier than you say.
Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and others at the 1787 Federal Convention provided for oppression by America's wealthy. You can read their words in Max Farrand's Records of the Federal Convention of 1787. His three volumes can be found in many large public libraries and the last time I did a search Amazon had them in paperback.
I agree that owning personal firearms will do little to prevent a heavily armed government from becoming a dictatorship and suppressing freedoms.
We here in the US are already under a multitude of laws and regulations defining what we can or can't do. While many of these regulations are necessary, there are those which are not. In my opinion the Patriot Act (what a name) is a law designed to take away any rights the government deems necessary. Congress passed it in the hysteria which swept the country following 9/11. It is a law of unintended (maybe not) consequences. It makes habeas corpus a joke..
I believe there was a quote from Thomas Jefferson on the subject that said something along the lines of "the second amendment won't be necessary until the government tries to take it." Or at least that's what it essentially implied. There's a reason loose gun laws lower crime rates. I'm all for class licenses and such, but registration and bannings are a joke.
What about the right to arm bears?
Yes, I think that should happen. Please make that happen.
I do not own a gun because a travel so much. But once my traveling dies down, I do plan to purchase two handguns. One near my bed and one in my kitchen area because I am in my kitchen most of the time.
These are points that I agree with.
Why have we let our government legislate us into becoming potential victims? Criminals have guns while law-abiding citizens are left helpless.
Any gun control that restricts law-abiding citizens is ridiculous - we're not the people who commit crimes.
Finally, police cannot protect citizens, and even if they could, they do not have an obligation to do so. One must accept responsibility for one's own security.
all agreed. and someone who trains "peace officers" in the states...the ones in my area wont be called. they cant hit the broad side of a barn and will just accidentally shoot my wife, dog, turtle, fish tank.... then sprinkle some crack on all of us and say they stopped a drug deal
Sounds like the problem, in your area, isn't a question of gun-control or -ownership but an issue with a) a poorly motivated/corrupt police force OR b) a big case of anti-police confirmation bias.

I bought this at a L'oreal sale and I didn't actually know it was a lip balm til I put it on. This colour doesn't tend to show up on my lips and seems kind of like a nude/translucent shade. It doesn't do much for me as a lip balm and I usually only use it when I want something light on my lips. However, the taste and smell are really nice.

I bought this balm in Fiery Red this morning and really like it. Despite the name, it's a gentle red, not overpowering at all. So far it feels quite moisturizing and it remains to be seen how it wears in the long run. I've been in the habit of buying the more prestige brands lately, but have been disappointed by a few, so I'm happy to have found a product at a decent price that works.

If you love sheer, moist lipsticks with a little pop of perfect pink to perk up your face, this one's for you. Packaging is cute -- looks almost exactly like Maybelline's Color Whisper line, which I also love. Compared to the Maybelline product, this one is much glossier and has much less pigment, but it feels more like a moisturizing balm on the lips. Really nice if you have insanely dry, chronically cracking lips like I do. Heavenly Berry is a barely-there cool-toned plum-berry glossy pink. I love that's a gloss without being sticky or gloppy, or getting my hair stuck in it. Another bonus: it has that yummy sweet vanilla frosting scent that makes me want to eat it. Great product for a reasonable price (I can always find a coupon for a BOGO or 1/2-off), and I will definitely be buying more colors from this line.

Feels like the Nivea lip balms, with a very, very light tint. It's nice to have at the office for when you need just a light wash of color and to moisturize lips. Otherwise, it is not pigmented and doesn't last too long.
Great for a quick pick me up! Before I knew it, I had used the whole tube...

Loved the color. Loved the texture. Felt very moisturizing. HOWEVER, the strong strong STRONG sunscreen taste was a complete dealbreaker for me. Had to get it off my lips immediately. Ick.

This is a very moisturizing balm that goes on smoothly and feels creamy on lips. It has almost no color, which is ok if you know that before you buy it. It definitely doesn't have the depth of color as the tube or the stick would lead you to think. I like this color a lot because it adds just a hint of depth to my natural lip color and feels good.

If each of us hit the lottery, picking a car would
be easy: We'd pick on a whim, call the dealer, order it delivered and peel off
an inch or two of $100 bills from the rolled-up wads in our pockets. Until then,
figuring out how to pay for and insure the car of our dreams is a matter close
to our heartstrings and purse strings. In this section we'll explain the all-important
concept of residual value or depreciation and how it affects so many aspects of
car buying and leasing; examine various ways to find great financing, insurance
and perhaps how to get Uncle Sam to underwrite part of your purchase.
an auto purchase online -- Working the Web could get you the best deal on
a loan.
must-know auto-financing terms -- Beat the dealer at the game by speaking
the same language.
and least expensive -- A look at some of the most and least expensive cars
for injuries, thefts and repairs.
you paying too much for car insurance? -- Cut costs by understanding your
needs and shopping around.
insurance: friend or foe? -- Most dealers push gap insurance to cover you
while you're upside-down in a loan, but is it something you really need?
car? It's debatable -- The lists of most-stolen vehicles in the U.S. often
differ. Toyota Camrys and Honda Accords are at the top of some lists, the bottom
of others. It's because some lists measure number of units stolen; others measure
the percentage.
rewards for gas savers -- If you bought an environmentally friendly car, Uncle
Sam has some tax breaks for you.
SUV bargain comes courtesy of Uncle Sam -- If your business auto is a sport
utility vehicle, you may be able to write off most of its cost.
SUVs qualify? -- Find out if your vehicle is eligible for the added tax break.

This evening I attended a Sustainability dinner with some work colleagues. So that I could have a few drinks with dinner, I decided to catch the train to and from the event. Mistake! Not only did it hail, but the temperature dropped well below the comfort zone!
This shot was taken at Mitcham station while waiting for the train.

Lizzy Caplan wants Susan Sarandon to be her mother on Masters of Sex.
Lizzy, we hear you. This makes sense for every reason imaginable. If this mom-daughter reunion happened, it would be a thing of glory for the show. A Sarandon-style '50s mom could probably teach Virginia everything she needed to know about satisfaction in the time it takes Bill Masters to run around the track on one of his awkward spastic hate jogs. The realism on the show has been grand and all-the people are pretty normal, but let's throw in the sexiest woman alive. We hope her boudoir includes several selfie paintings just like her character in that underrated masterpiece Alfie. But it's just dream casting now. All you can do is squeeze your ham sandwich with sour lettuce (a menu option on the show,) and wish for this to happen.
Totally sincere best wishes to anyone other than Sarandon who goes for this part. Until then, Robert and Libby will probably have a sexy thing, so there's that.

3,579,293 Patented May 18, 1971 3,579,293 REMOVAL OF HYDROGEN SULFIDE FROM GASEOUS MIXTURES Forrest G. Shultz and Gerald E. Chidester, Morgantown, and Fernand E. Collet, Star City, W. Va., assignors to the United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Interior No Drawing. Filed Oct. 10, 1969, Ser. No. 865,535
Int. Cl. Bold 53/14 U.S. Cl. 23--2S 3 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Hydrogen sulfide is removed from gaseous mixtures by contacting the mixtures at elevated temperature with an absorbent comprising iron oxide and fly ash.
Gas producers have been receiving attention in recent years as a potential source of clean, pressurized gas for a variety of industrial purposes. Removal of hydrogen sultide from the hot producer gas is desirable because hydrogen sulfide is an air pollutant and deteriorates equip ment.
Temperature of the producer gas to be treated for H 8 removal ranges from 1,000 to 1,500" F. To economically utilize the sensible heat of producer gas for power generation, the H 8 must be removed near the generation temperature of the gas. This precludes the use of liquid absorbents and limits the process to the use of solid absorbents that can react with H S at elevated temperatures. The material should also be regenerable for reuse through several cycles of H 8 absorption followed by air regeneration.
Iron oxide has previously been used for desulfurization of industrial gases at elevated temperature. However, the iron oxide tends to disintegrate under the influence of high temperature and a sulfiding environment, resulting in troublesome accumulations of fine oxide dust.
It has now been found that this disadvantage can be overcome by the use of an absorbent consisting of sintered pellets made from a mixture of fly ash and ferric oxide, the fly ash comprising about 50 to 100 wt. percent of the composition. This absorbent also has the advantage that it is readily regenerated to an essentially fresh condition by means of treatment with air or oxygen.
Fly ash is a fine ash, with a particle size range of 5 to 100 microns, produced by combustion of powdered coal with forced draft and is usually collected by means of electrically precipitators. The absorbent of the invention is prepared by homogenously mixing the fly ash with iron oxide (F6203) having a particle size of about 2 to 150 microns, with an average size of about 50 microns. This mixture is wet with enough water to permit formation of pellets. It will generally be desirable to add sufficient water to form a paste. The pellets are then dried at temperatures of about 200 to 800 F. to prevent disintegration during sintering, and they are then fired at temperatures between about 1600 to 2000 F. for a period of about to minutes. This treatment results in sintering to form hard pellets having a high degree of strength.
The resulting pellets are very efficient for removal of hydrogen sulfide from producer gases at temperatures of about 1000 to 1500 F. and at space velocities as high as 2000, or higher. In addition, the pellets are readily regenerated to an essentially fresh condition by passage of' air or oxygen over them. Tests have shown that as many as nine cycles of H 8 absorption at temperatures of 1000 to 1500 F. and air regeneration at temperatures of 1000 to 1250 F. may be carried out without loss of H 8 absorption capability.
The invention will be more specifically illustrated by the following example:
EXAMPLE Twenty-five grams of pure Fe O having a particle size of 50 microns average, and 75 grams of fly ash, having a particle size between 5 and 100 microns, from a bituminous coal-burning power plant were thoroughly mixed and 38 ml. of water were added to wet the mixture. The mixture was then formed, into spherical pellets having a diameter of about inch. These pellets were then rfired at 1800 F. for 15 minutes to cause sintering, resulting in high-strength pellets. The fly ash used in preparation of the pellets had the following composition:
Constituent: Percent Si0 47.9 A1 0 23 .8 Fe203 15-7 P205 0-6 TiO 2.8 CaO 3 .6 MgO 1.5 Na O 1.9 K 0 2.2
Simulated producer gas having the composition:
H S1.5% 'was passed through a bed of the above-prepared absorbent pellets contained in an electrically heated section of 1-inch diameter by 5 feet long schedule 40 stainless-steel pipe. Alumina spheres in the bottom 22 inches of the pipe extended 10 inches into the hot zone of the furnace. These spheres supported the absorbent bed and preheated the gas. Regeneration facilities con sisted of an air supply with pressure regulator and flow meter to supply an air stream through the system at 10001250 F. Purified producer gas and the regeneration gas were vented through a common system. Fifteeninch depths of absorbent were subjected to a gas flow rate of 15 s.c.f.h. (7.08 liters per minute), which is equal to a space velocity of 2,000. Experiments were conducted at 1,000, 1,250", and 1,500 F. The runs were terminated when the H 8 concentration in the effluent gas stream of the test bed, originally near zero, reached 2.3 mg./l. Sulfur capacities of the absorbent were calculated from the product of H 8 concentration, flow rate, and time duration of the test.
Results are given in Table 1. Tests 1 through 10 give the absorptive capacity of the absorbent through nine H 8 absorption-air regeneration cycles run successively on one batch of absorbent. The data show that there is no appreciable loss in absorptive capacity, nor was there any attrition of the pellets.
What is claimed is: 1.

Leonardo DiCaprio says 'Wolf of Wall Street' critics 'missed the boat entirely'
Martin Scorsese's latest film, "The Wolf of Wall Street," hit theaters over the holiday and was met with very interesting reactions. In some corners, it's an unqualified masterpiece, willfully overt and satirical in its depiction of greed and excess. In others, it's an irresponsible culprit that appears to be delighting in the wild ride it depicts.
For the film's producer and star Leonardo DiCaprio, it is a bit of both, as the sheer entertainment of the piece isn't meant to be at odds with its social indictment. That, in some ways, is the horror of it. But it certainly isn't the first Scorsese film to cause a stir upon release and it won't likely be the last.
DiCaprio recently spoke to HitFix about the high ambition of the project, the gobsmacked reaction it has received and how not just his work in "The Wolf of Wall Street," but his involvement in Baz Luhrmann's "The Great Gatsby" earlier this year and Quentin Tarantino's "Django Unchained" in 2012 have all been an examination of a shared theme: pursuit of a corrupted American dream.
HitFix: I don't know if you recall but we spoke after the Golden Globes last year when you were in the middle of filming "The Wolf of Wall Street" and you told me you thought it was going to be your best work. Does it feel that way now that the whole thing has finally come to fruition?
Leonardo DiCaprio: I think that at least the attempt going into it was to try to do something really outside of the box and I think Marty had the same approach. Every time we wanted to make a choice to go into a sort of traditional story structure or make choices for the characters that were things that we've seen in films before, we tried to do something a little different. In that regard I feel very proud of this performance. I think we took a lot of chances, and no matter what people think of the movie, we swung for the fences on this one. That's what I'm really excited about and happy that we just had the opportunity to do, to tell you the truth, because I've been in this business for a long period of time and certainly when you're doing an epic of this scale, you don't get an opportunity to do that very often. That was in large part due to the people that were financing this, who said, "We want to take this chance. We think there's a marketplace for something like this." I keep referencing "Caligula" but you think about "Scarface," films like that, I don't know how people are going to react to it right off the bat, but I think as the years roll by people will appreciate what we were trying to do here.
Well that's what's interesting because, like a great many of Scorsese's movies, this one is being met with a touch of controversy right off the bat for its depiction of excess. There are those who see it as more of an irresponsible glorification than a satirical takedown. What's your response to that?
I think anyone who thinks that missed the boat entirely. I grew up in a generation of watching Marty's movies and when you come from a standpoint of being someone who is so influenced by him and De Niro's work, to hear specific reactions they had to films that, now, as the years roll by — we're all desensitized to those things, you know what I'm saying? To hear that there were any type of reactions that weren't — I'm not saying people should particularly praise this film for that reason, but I think it takes a while to permeate into the culture a little bit. When I see his movies now, it's a shock to me that there was ever any kind of — I mean I listened to stories of "The Last Temptation of Christ." I listened to stories of "Goodfellas" and "Taxi Driver" and even "Mean Streets," but to me they're a classic part of American cinema history that have influenced so many other filmmakers and so many other genres. It's insane.
It's exciting to be a part of a film, in a way, that is kind of bold and is taking a chance like that, and I think that anyone that thinks this is a celebration of Wall Street and this sort of hedonism — yes, the unique thing about Marty is that he doesn't judge his characters. And that was something that you don't quite understand while you're making the movie, but he allows the freedom of this almost hypnotic, drug-infused, wild ride that these characters go on. And he allows you, as an audience — guilty or not — to enjoy in that ride without judging who these people are. Because ultimately, he keeps saying this: "Who am I to judge anybody?" I mean ultimately I think if anyone watches this movie, at the end of "Wolf of Wall Street," they're going to see that we're not at all condoning this behavior. In fact we're saying that this is something that is in our very culture and it needs to be looked at and it needs to be talked about. Because, to me, this attitude of what these characters represent in this film are ultimately everything that's wrong with the world we live in.
It's "warts and all." It's, "Here it is. Can you believe it? Can you handle it?"
It's true, and, look, I'm going to be 40 years old, but I see the new generations — of course there are a lot of very conscious minds out there that want to do good for the world, but there's this incessant need for consumerism and wanting more and wanting to give into every indulgence that is more rampant than ever. That shift doesn't seem to be happening in the evolution of our species. It just seems to be getting larger and larger. So yeah, to me, look, this movie is incredibly entertaining. But what we're talking about is, to me, a very serious subject. That's the best way I can put it.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) Maybe they were stuck in traffic?
When the Texas House failed to approve spending an extra $900 million a year to ease congested and crumbling highways, missing from the crucial vote were 23 lawmakers, some of whose absences remained unexplained Tuesday.
The bill fell short by 16 votes. Odds were long that the House would be successful on a second try Tuesday, the final day of the second special session. A third 30-day session now looms.
Each special session costs the state roughly $800,000.
The Associated Press reached out to every House member absent for Monday's vote. One lawmaker was grieving the weekend death of her chief of staff. Another was with his son in a California hospital.

#8 – OrangeHRM – Human Resource Management
OrangeHRM is a web-based PHP/MySQL app which I'm confident will be unknown to most readers but hopefully will pique your interest.
OrangeHRM is, as its name suggests, a human resource information system. The project team have a roadmap detailing where they want to head, with three major facilities available now. The first is fairly obvious, capturing personal details of staff members along with name, contact details, next of kin, salary and so forth. A photograph and any supporting documents like a resume or copies of licenses can be attached.
Secondly, reports can be constructed from a range of custom search criteria and fields. The report definition can be saved and re-executed at any time. This allows HR to quickly identify staff based on the requirement at hand, be it all members of a certain team, foreign nationals whose working visas are due to expire, all employees who have attained a specific educational qualification or any other circumstance that can be imagined.
The third major facility of OrangeHRM is a comprehensive leave management module. This provides entire workflow for an employee to request leave, with any number of approvers being able to review the request. Approved leave is recorded in a company calendar. At each stage, the appropriate people are notified of the status of the request and any actions he or she must take. This alone is of great benefit to many companies whether small or large saving both paper and time, as well as showing at a glance who will be away on any given day or week.
This last feature can't be underemphasised. Let's walk through it: an employee, Bill, say, logs on to OrangeHRM from his desk to submit a request to take time off - whether a single day or a couple of weeks or more. His supervisor is notified right away. The request is approved or rejected. If it's rejected, Bill gets a note back to this effect with hopefully some comments. If it is approved, again Bill is notified, but so too are any relevant staff - like HR and payroll - and the leave is recorded against Bill's file and is listed in a public calendar. This is a boon to any business with more than a few employees. There's no filling in paperwork and worrying where the form has got to, there's no wondering how many people are absent on any particular day. This automates a very common and essential business process.
OrangeHRM is accessible to any staff member but offers finely-grained security. This allows HR staff full access, but means ordinary employees may only view and edit their own data. Any conceivable combination of security options can be defined and applied to any user or group of users. Managers, for instance, may be given read-only access to any member of their team.
With future plans including recruitment, performance and training modules, OrangeHRM is definitely an information system that will only grow in usefulness to any organisation. Even very small businesses can benefit, consolidating and filing all staff records in a single electronic spot.
One thing I find personally of interest is that OrangeHRM has a visual style reminiscent of another popular open source marketing and contacts web-based system called SugarCRM. I could find no statements that OrangeHRM is an add-on to SugarCRM, or that it shares source code or integrates with it in any way. Perhaps there is no relationship and the team just took a penchant to SugarCRM's style, but if OrangeHRM can easily be used to extend SugarCRM I feel the developers would do well to promote that fact and capitalise on its installed base.

A few days ago I mentioned the Washington Holocaust Museum in a post in which I raised the two different Holocaust narratives that Jews carried in their hearts. According to one, the Holocaust teaches us to reject violence, embrace tolerance, and learn to get along. According to the other, the Jewish people learned the absolute necessity of defense — including a sovereign state and an army — in order to survive in the real world. How do we react now, to a tragedy that cries out to be read in its own symbolic context?
The alleged attacker, Von Brunn, was a vicious anti-Semite who was not looking to kill a security guard. He was looking to kill Jews. In this he failed, and he failed only because of the heroic acts of Stephen Tyrone Johns, who sacrificed his life, and of the other guards who opened fire and took him out.
The event is tragic in anyone's eyes, but only ironic according to the first Holocaust narrative. The Washington Post's editorial this morning talks about how the museum is " a place where visitors go to confront hatred, learn the danger of prejudice and promote human dignity… Such a reminder was delivered yesterday, in a most unexpected place." The editors continue:
Several Holocaust visitors described the incident as "unbelievable" because it occurred in a place that, by memorializing the near-extinction of a people, is designed to prevent violence. One woman, the daughter of a Holocaust survivor, said the shooting demonstrates that hatred and prejudice are never-ending. Given the vile beliefs that news accounts have ascribed to the suspect, that view is understandable. But the hope that was enshrined in the Holocaust Museum when it opened in 1993 is that exposing the horrors of hate and prejudice will move people to tolerance.
From the perspective of the other narrative, however, the tragic events yesterday were anything but ironic. Indeed, they seem to prove the very lesson its proponents have been trying to teach us. The fact is that neither Johns nor his compatriots represent a rejection of violence. They represent the enlistment of force to protecting liberty — including the liberty of Jews to commemorate their past and celebrate their present. What is horribly clear today is that if not for their swift, heroic, and effective actions — indeed, were it not for the wisdom of whoever insisted on having well-trained armed guards protecting the place — we all know how much worse yesterday's attack would have turned out.

Why I love to floss…
Most people don't floss very often. They say they do, but they really don't. Do you? Every day? Before bedtime and before breakfast?
I bet most of you will say no. I'll be honest – I work for Dr Katz and there are STILL times I skip flossing. But when I do finally get around to it, man is it satisfying. Your teeth feel clean, your gums feel good, and you can actually see all that junk your are scrapping out from in between your teeth.
Have you ever smelled your floss when you were done? Ohmygod… Nasty.

There isn't anything more satisfying and rewarding for children than to be able to express themselves openly and without judgment. The experiences children have during their first years of life can significantly enhance the development of their creativity. Children need plenty of chances for creative play and imaginative thinking. Start by providing activities that are based his or her interests and ideas. Nothing reinforces the creative spirit and cultivates a child's soul more than large chunks of time to engage in unprompted, self-directed play. Play is serious business for young children and the ability to play freely is crucial to their development.
An easy way to give a child a chance to let their imagination roam free is to create a special place to play dress-up: princesses, cowboys, space rangers and super heroes all need that kind of space. When all of their costumes and accessories are organized in one space, even a short amount of time could result in a super hero or princess moment.
However, we all know that little Cinderella and Spiderman tend to grow up way too fast, so you need an area that would cause no permanent damage to the room. By using curtain rods, you can create that special place. Only a few small holes would have to be filled to restore the room when the tween years arrive.
Measure out four feet from the corner of two adjacent walls on the ceiling creating a squared off section Mount the bracket hardware 3" down from the ceiling using self-anchoring Mollie bolts and attach any of the LJB Kailey Collection drapery rods and brackets. To make it easier for little hands chose a lightweight fabric. Rather than drapes, purchase two shower curtains in the same color as the walls. Mount the shower curtains to the rod with the LJB's Lancelot Ring.
Although the drapery system functions well, it may not be festive enough. To make it more colorful and fitting for a princess, cut varying lengths of a complementary ribbon creating streamers to tie to the ring. If Spiderman is moving in stretch cotton batting from ring to ring for a spider web effect!
Continental Window Fashions is proud to present the LJB Kailey Collection.

Secretary Salazar Details Strategy for Comprehensive Energy Plan on U.S. Outer Continental Shelf
Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar announced a strategy Tuesday, February 10, extending public comment period on a proposed 5-year plan for oil and gas development on the U.S. Outer Continental Shelf and calling for a detailed report from Interior agencies on conventional and renewable offshore energy resources.
Topic / Summary / Transcript
Topic: The Secretary says he will extend the comment period on the Bush administration's 5-year plan by 180 days.
"March 23rd - the deadline for public comment that the Bush Administration established - by no means provides enough time for public review or for wise decisions concerning the future of the vast outer continental shelf. I am therefore extending the public comment period on the OCS draft proposed plan by 180 days. This additional time will give the states, stakeholders, and affected communities the opportunity to provide input on the future of our offshore areas. The additional time will also allow us to restore an orderly process to our offshore energy planning."
Topic: Secretary Salazar has directed scientists in the USGS and MMS to assemble all available information on offshore gas, oil and renewable resources, to help guide decisions on an offshore energy strategy.
"We shouldn't make decisions on some of the most important taxpayer treasures, America's treasures based on old information. We need to shine light on the path ahead with the best information we can develop. So today I am directing the United States Geological Survey and the Minerals Management Service and other departmental scientists to assemble all the information we have about our offshore resources, conventional and renewable along with information we have about potential impacts from development. I'm directing our scientists to provide me that report within 45 days from today."
Topic: Secretary Salazar will convene meetings in coastal areas to hear from stakeholders on offshore energy development.
"To gather the best ideas for how we move forward, I will convene four regional meetings in the thirty days after MMS and USGS publish their report. I will host one meeting in Alaska, one in the Pacific Coast, one in the Atlantic Coast, and one in the Gulf Coast. I will be asking all interested parties - including the oil and gas industry, including governors, including the environmental community - a simple question: what are your recommendations on how we define the future of the OCS through appropriate changes in the 5 year plan? "
Topic: Secretary Salazar describes the scale of what is at stake, given the area that the Department of the Interior oversees in the Outer Continental Shelf is nearly ¾ the size of the United States landmass.
"We will determine in what areas we need more information and we will create a plan for gathering that information. That is no easy task, the Department of Interior oversees 1.7 billion off-shore acres: an area roughly three-fourths the size of the United States of America's landmass. And that is what is at stake here as we move forward with a new five-year plan for development in the offshore areas. "

"We kind of freaked out for a minute because we didn't know, big bomb? Is there even a bomb?" said Chris Smith.
Just 16-years-old, Smith and his parents watched from inside their home, wondering what the family next door had done.
"He has three little girls, and his wife is pregnant," worried Smith.
Police were searching the home for drugs. They wouldn't say what they found inside the home that looked like an explosive.
"We don't describe items because people will replicate them to make it look like a bomb for us to come out and get it," said Capt. Dexter Nelson.
He said it all comes back to Victor Castillo.
Police arrested him Thursday when they say they found 70 pounds of marijuana and 300 grams of meth in his car. Then, they searched the home at SW 49th and Ollie.
Police say family took the children inside the home.
Police say the mother-to-be that the neighbor was concerned about, went into labor when they showed up searching for drugs.

Culinary Ambassadors: The Philippines' All-Purpose Sauce
If all-purpose sauce were alive, it would certainly roll with a hipster crew because it is the most ironic of Filipino condiments. With a name like "all-purpose," you'd expect it to be capable of everything from topping ice cream to pre-treating stains, but in most Filipino households, all-purpose sauce serves only one purpose: to accompany lechon.

There is no better time than China's annual "golden week" National Day holidays to get a feel of how many people China really has – so many that to use the term "tourist apocalypse" isn't an exaggeration. Even the US federal government has been shut down so that pouring Chinese tourists won't flood its national parks.
In almost every tourism destination, it's "people mountain people sea," as the Chinese would describe it. An extreme example is the famous Jiuzhaigou Valley in Sichuan province. On Wednesday, a lack of buses and long traffic jams to and from the mountain left thousands of tourists stranded for some 11 hours. Some of those who didn't get a chance to see anything other than other people even mobbed the ticket office for a refund. Armed police were dispatched to keep order.
One guy who made it back successfully described his time at Jiuzhagou as "11 hours of chaos, anger, desperation and starvation," which sounds more like Lost than vacation.
Other places, while better than Jiuzhaigou, can also be said to be hell-like.
Beijing, Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City. It's reported that some 110,000 people went to see the flag-raising ceremony on the National Day (Oct.1) and left some 5 tons of trash.
Mogao Caves in the western province of Gansu had so many visitors that the carbon level in several of its caves reached dangerous level for those thousand-year-old painting within. Some caves may have to close as a result.
Hangzhou, West Lake
The ancient town of Fenghuang
The Yellow Mountain
Gulangyu Island
Zhouzhuang, a town in Jiangsu province
Shanghai, The Bund
Beijing, the Great Wall (of people)
Even more amazing is the fact that most of these tourists got to their destinations through epic traffic jams like the below one in Guangdong. Lesson of the day? Stay at home during public holidays in China!

R&B music has enjoyed a remarkable resurgence as of late thanks to artists like Donell Jones, Raheem DeVaughn, Avant, Lyfe Jennings, Monifah, and Erica Campbell, who came together Sunday, August 4th at the Central Park Summerstage to perform in the WBLS R&B Fest. And what a show it was!
MUSIC SEEN: Ain't Nobody Gonna Get In Robin Thicke's Way
Is there anyone out there having a better year than one Robin Thicke? His collabo with Pharrell and T.I., "Blurred Lines," is undoubtedly the biggest smash of the year, and his new album is poised for a huge debut when next week's SoundScan figures get released.
Robin spent some time in New York City recently, and VH1's ace photographer Lauren Weissler trailed him for a few days while he did some interviews here at VH1 headquarters and performed for an iHeartRadio Live performance. We've collected the shots of the heartthrob for you in the latest entry in our ongoing Music Seen series.
Guess The Guitar God!
The sound of the electric guitar is the sound of rock 'n' roll, plain and simple. American blues musicians were the first to crank their amps into overdrive to be heard above the din of juke joints and find the rich, saturated tones pleasing to the ear. In the mid-60s British fans started spray-painting "Clapton Is God" around London in honor of Eric Clapton's groundbreaking lead guitar work with John Mayall's Bluesbreakers. The age of The Guitar Hero had arrived. And no guitar god worth his weight in groupies goes without a signature six-string by his side. Peruse these legends of rock guitar and see if you can guess who they are just from pictures of their iconic axes.
Sequins! Velvet! Dad-Plaid! The 15 Most Busted Boy Band Outfits in History
They make girls scream, guys invest in styling product, and the whole world attempt awkward choreo (cue the "Bye Bye Bye" wave thingie). Boy bands are righteous! But most of them cannot dress, let's be clear. In a summer where they're hotter than ever — One Direction, 98 Degrees, Backstreet Boys, Boyz II Men, and New Kids on the Block are all on tour — let's have a giggle at the fifteen most ridic guy-group ensembles ever, shall we?

Music Seen: Hunter Hayes Proves Why He's An Artist To Watch
Hunter Hayes is one of the most exciting new voices to emerge in today's contemporary country music scene. How do we know? Well, we've seen him display his considerable talents on a few different occasions now, including the 2013 Grammy Awards, last week's Philly Jam, and his Artist To Watch showcase set at New York City's Webster Hall late last month. The latter concert was livestreamed by our friends over at MTV —you can catch the entire Hunter Hayes: Artist To Watch showcase here— and we sent our ace photographer Lauren Weissler to the show to capture the scene for the latest entry in our ongoing Music Seen series.
Talk About A Body Party! Ciara's Top 50 Midriff Moments
We've been patiently waiting for this day for nearly two-and-a-half years, and now we can rejoice that Ciara's fifth studio album—the self-titled Ciara—is finally available. Singles like "Body Party" and "I'm Out (feat. Nicki Minaj)" have already gotten everyone around the VH1 offices amped, and we're fully expecting to hear the rest of the album blaring from computer speakers in the hallway for the rest of the week (and month and year!).
Once we saw the cover of the album, in which we see a mirrored Ciara showing off her legendary abs, we knew that there was only one way to celebrate release day — a mega-gallery of CiCi's Top 50 Midriff Moments! Let's talk a walk down memory lane and see Ciara showing off her taut tummy through the years, from her first record release party way back in 2004 to the BET Awards just last month.

Duluth, Minn. - The St. Scholastica women's hockey team has advanced the NCHA Semifinals after sweeping Lake Forest on the road last weekend to complete their first ever postseason series win.
It is just the third year of existence for the program and coincidentally, this will be the third time this season that the Saints will skate with St. Norbert. they split a pair in Green Bay back in November.
"We just really have to put three solid periods together and score some goals and get some big goaltending from our goalie and we really do feel confident going into the game, just being matched up with them and we are excited to play them," says Head Coach Jackie MacMillan.
"We are feeling good about how we are playing and feel like we have the advantage and doing what it takes to get there is everything for us and I think we have that and we are excited to get going," says Forward Michelle Fischer.
St. Scholastica and St. Norbert face off on Friday at 3:05 pm in River Falls, Wisconsin.

About Shannon Rogers
My Name Is Shannon Rogers, a photographer and Digital Artist from Australia. A person once told me Photographers are very mean. First, they frame you, then they shoot you, then hang you on the wall, I had to laugh and said I am going to use that one!!
I treat the photograph as a work of great complexity in which you can find many degrees of drama. Add to that a careful composition of landscapes, live photography, the right music and a creative frame of mind, and it becomes a style. When you view my work it's full of passion and dedication. I am very much aware of the visual side of things. I do a lot of photography. I often take images of things that strike me as visually interesting and that inspire me, so I can then forever remember them and share that moment in time with the world!
I hear a select few of people that say using Photoshop is cheating and destroys a Photograph. I strongly disagree with this. Photography to me is an Art and the Camera is my Brush that starts a Journey into the Unknown until there is finally a light at the end of the tunnel and every now and then you may just reach the pot of gold at the end of a rainbow!
So in signing out, I love what I do, it gives me Inspiration a real meaning for life! We have a wonderful world and until I became a Photographer I missed so much of it, But now I see it all much clearer. I welcome you all into my world that has inspired me through the work I have created, where it all starts with my paintbrush the Canon 5D Mark III.
Always Believe and Reach for your Dreams
Yours Sincerely
Shannon Rogers

Rollei RLS is identical to CG512 and similar to Perceptol and Microdol-X. All these developers give slightly finer grain by giving some speed.
Uwe Pilz
Perceptol and Microdol-X are based on D-23, purportedly with slightly less Metol, and the addition of Sodium Chloride. Microdol-X included an anti-silvering/plating agent.
RLS is a MQ developer, which is not the same thing. Further, there is nothing inherently abnormal about the keeping properties of D-23 type developers once mixed, not are they prone to any kind of inherent "sudden death".
RLS is a different formula and is packaged as a liquid. A one-part liquid developer requires careful formulation and packaging if it is to have a long shelf life.

Maybe 100's of others are experiencing the same issue or are about to ruin their films in the same way.
By the way I keep hens and will never feed them by hand again. Next time it is the lion tamer's chair when I go into the henhouse
Let us know what B&H has to say.
I'll be back in NYC in a few weeks and will return the developer. Can anyone recommend a better place for film in NYC or am I better off ordering online from freestyle etc. ?

Developer will likely not smell like ammonia unless fixer was poured into it. Think about this for a minute. How did fixer get into the developer, or developer get into the fixer, and how did that affect film developing?
But seriously, the four bottles were shrink wrapped and I didn't have any fix near them or on my hands. The smell comes from freshly opened bottles.

That throws my theory right out the window, then.
If your developer smells like ammonia, then something is probably wrong. Test it by using a small piece of film that's been exposed to light before developing something important.
I hope you find a solution to your problem.

hi , i have the same problem just few seconds ago !
rollei 80s 50 iso in rls 1+4 24°c 12.5 min . I believe that is a failure in the composition of the developer in the factory... the rollei film is the agfa aerial film aviphot pan 80 .... and is a wonderful film (in rodinal) .
So film-fix-stop from agfa gavaert (belgium) and developer from rollei (cg 512 formula) ..... it's the developer !
I wonder if the original OP, fatso, ever contacted Rollei? If he didn't then not telling Rollei of his issue hasn't done Rollei or other customers such as Aldo any favours.
Frustrating when an OP doesn't bother to gives us closure to an issue on which collectively APUGers devoted their time
Thanks Pentaxuser , i live near (30KM) the italian dealer .. so i'll make some inquiry !
i believe that is an old problems with some Lot ( in italian i mean lotto ... in english is better stock ? )
i love the infinity life of rodinal .. for that !

The headlines are sexy and the stories salacious. But is the spate of recent media reports about female teachers having sex with their students an honest reflection of the truth or just so much media hype?
In the most recent case to make headlines, Lina Sinha, 40, headmistress of a Montessori school in New York City, was convicted last week of sodomizing a former student when he was 13. She was also found guilty of trying to bribe another boy in an effort to get him to lie about their relationship, and now faces up to 18 years in prison.
About 10 percent of all children -- boys and girls, in kindergarten through 11th grade -- have reported receiving some sort of sexual harassment by an adult while in school. About 7 percent of those cases involved physical abuse, said Charol Shakeshaft, an education professor at Hofstra University and author of a congressionally mandated study on teacher misconduct for the Department of Education.
Experts say that while reports of teacher sexual misconduct are rising, it is difficult to know if there has been an increase in the number of actual occurrences of sexual abuse by teachers, because no previous studies were ever conducted to give scientists a baseline for comparison.
What is certain, however, is that the vast majority of teachers who harass or abuse their students are men. Men make up just 15 percent of all teachers, yet are responsible for two-thirds of all abuse.
Moreover, despite the public's fascination with female abusers and our perception that the media is flooded with stories of their seductions, the abusive teachers highlighted in the media are also overwhelmingly male.
"In 2006, 158 different cases were reported nationwide in newspapers," Shakeshaft told ABC News. "Of those, 21 percent were about females and 78 percent about males.
"The [number of press] stories are similar to the number of actual incidences. … [Stories about] females are slightly overreported in the proportion that they exist," she said. "Females aren't actually being reported on more in the media … just one out of five stories is about females."
Part of the reason the public believes there is an increase in female perpetrators is because until recently, most stories about teachers (male or female) who abused students were kept under wraps. Experts also say it is a relatively recent phenomenon that women who have sex with their pupils are handled with the same gravity as their male colleagues.
"Yes, there are a lot of stories about female abusers, but we notice them particularly because in the past, there weren't any stories," Shakeshaft said. "We shouldn't assume the majority of cases are about females, but we feel that way because we're not used to them."
While it is clear that reported incidences are on the rise, due to a lack of data, it is unclear if that means actual occurrences are rising, too.
The New York State Department of Education released a report in February that found the number of teachers facing "moral character" inquiries for having sex with students had nearly doubled over the past five years.
Since 2001, the department has investigated 485 cases, more than a quarter of which took place in the 2005-2006 school year alone.
"There is no really good data tracking teacher abuse cases," said David Finkelhor of the Crimes against Children Research Center at the University of New Hampshire.
