Fender celebrates 50 years of the iconic Jaguar.
Fender's 50th Anniversary Jaguar guitar takes you back to 1962, when they introduced an unusual new guitar that paired the sleek Jazzmaster® body style and elaborate control layout with a shorter scale and smaller, brighter pickups with more output. The resulting Jaguar was the fourth and last of Fender's original lineup of standard electric guitars. Perfectly matched to the early-'60s renaissance in design modernism, the Jaguar gradually acquired a fascinating pedigree quite unlike that of any other Fender guitar. A chromed-out, surf-rock staple of the 1960s, it found new life from the mid-1970s-on as a subversively offbeat alternative axe wielded by punk, post-punk, grunge and alt-indie guitar heroes and anti-heroes alike.
The U.S.-built 50th Anniversary Jaguar celebrates that vivid history and combines old and new into the finest of all Jaguar guitars. Highly distinctive features include the classic 24" scale length, a new one-degree neck-angle-pocket cut that improves pitch, a re-positioned tremolo plate that increases bridge break angle and sustain, and specially designed hot Jaguar single-coil neck and bridge pickups that deliver fatter tone and more output (once again framed by the model's classic notched metal "claws"; a hum-reducing innovation only found on the Jaguar). Accessories include a deluxe brown case, strap, cable and a set of flatwound strings.

Comments about Fender 50th Anniversary Jaguar Electric Guitar:
Thigs is one of the finest guitars I've ever played. My guitar tech says it has many of the characteristics of the finest Custom Shop guitars. The finish is impecable. The action is smooth. The tones are excellent, from Surf, Blues to Rock. I would have given it a 5, but it required fret and neck work. Fender paid for the work under warranty. It is now a 5 guitar. Buy one. You won't be sorry.

great guitar buy it!
Comments about Fender 50th Anniversary Jaguar Electric Guitar:
I remain very disappointed that Fender would produce a premium priced product like this and let units into the marketplace with so many problems.
This guitar has been the same for 50 years, but can provide many tonal adjustments if you experiment with the controls
On my first guitar, trem lock button was completely missing...found it lodged out of sight in the case. Could not get it to work right, took it to local Fender authorized service center who could not fix it in 2-1/2 weeks. Sent it back to MF for replacement. Two months later, second unit's case was falling apart inside (I fixed this myself, but case is still somewhat out of square and will not close properly). Trem lock ok, but guitar has cosmetic paint defects front and back, and something (piece of solder, I think) is loose and rattling around inside. Can't adjust neck pick-up because moving top screw will not allow pu to move. I think its hung up under pick guard. Also, Fender says "speciallly designed hot pu's that deliver fatter tone and more output". Nothing could be futher from the truth. I have 4 other Fenders with way hotter pu's. This Jag is dull and lifeless compared to them. I'm hoping if I can adjust pu's, this will change. Otherwise, this unit may be defective and also go back to dealer. This is just a mass produced guitar at a premium price with little or no quality control before leaving the factory. Very disappointed.
Because of above problems, this is poor value for money

I didn't really have that many dolls that weren't American Girl dolls that already came with names (and when they come along with six books written for the doll, what person in their right mind changes the doll's name?). The one doll I remember having I named Rebecca. After my sister who had just been born and I was an incredibly proud and excited sister. Hey, I was four.
I named much more stuffed animals--a wolf named Ruth (after my grandmother), two bunnies (one with a purple bow, the other with pink fur) named John and Jonathan, a larger-than-life teddy bear named Mr. Snuggles... there were more, but those were my favorites, so those are really the only ones I remember. Apparently most of my stuffed animals were dudes.Ashley

Video: Buffalo Bills Mario Williams Returns To Camp
Video: Investigation into Mario Williams Recent Graduation
PITTSFORD, N.Y. - Buffalo Bills defensive end Mario Williams is back at training camp but not taking part in a full practice.
Williams was driven to camp around 8 p.m. Tuesday by a member of the Bills training staff.
Earlier Tuesday head coach Doug Marrone told reporters he had no update for the media on Mario Williams sore foot.
Tuesday morning's practice included the team's first scrimmage in pads. Williams didn't even appear to be on the St. John Fischer campus again.
Williams was at camp Sunday but sat out on the sidelines. Monday, he missed practice altogether to have his foot checked out by team doctors.
Williams himself hasn't talked about his injury. Marrone seemed to have very limited details. Marrone still didn't even know which foot it was, how the injury happened, when it happened, or how bad it was. Marrone even told the media he was "done" answering questions about Williams' foot.
NBC's Pro Football Talk reported that there is no serious damage to Williams' foot and that doctors have advised him to rest it.
Williams' foot injury comes after his nagging wrist injury all last season. And of course, this past offseason, Williams was plagued by personal problems involving text messages that revealed what appeared to be suicidal thoughts - which he later denied - and a lawsuit against his ex-fiancee for the return of an engagement ring worth more than $750,000.
(AP)- The Buffalo Bills have signed rookie free agent defensive back Don Unamba.
The signing was announced Wednesday, after the Bills completed their fourth day of training camp in suburban Rochester.
Listed at 6-foot-1 and 192 pounds, Unamba initially signed with St. Louis following the NFL draft before being cut by the Rams in June. He played college at Southern Arkansas, where he had three interceptions and a school-record 17 pass breakups in 11 starts last season.
The Bills return to practice on Friday.

Saturday, February 14, 2009For the second day in a row the Lady Bisons opened with a win and ended the day with a loss in the 23rd annual Louisiana Classics in Lafayette, La.
After beating Louisiana Tech 1-0 behind Christen Campbell's no-hitter Saturday morning, the Lady Bisons fell to Nicholls State 4-0 in their fourth game of the tournament later in the afternoon.
Junior Christy Grisham, who had not seen pitching time since her freshman season, started on the mound for Lipscomb. After getting three quick outs in the first inning, Nicholls scored one run in the second inning and then three more in the third.
Junior Alaina Jacobson came in to relieve Grisham in the middle of the third inning. Grisham struck out one and gave up three hits and four earned runs.
Jacobson struck out four and gave up five hits in her 3.2 innings pitched.
Lipscomb's defense had little help from their bats, with the Lady Bisons scattering four hits throughout the game.
Kellie Sirus continued to lead the Lady Bisons' offense and went 2-3. Campbell and catcher Vanessa Medina each contributed with singles.
"It was a tough game for us," Sirus said. "It showed us we need to make adjustments to get to the level we want to be at."
The Lady Bisons close out the tournament Sunday at 10 a.m. against Providence.

Click this link for the latest CW renewal / cancellation information:
Our Renew / Cancel Index predicts potential renewal or cancellation for scripted broadcast primetime shows by the end of the 2011-12 season in May, 2012. (includes results from January 2- April 22, 2012):
|Renew/ Cancel Index
|Nikita (F)
|Gossip Girl
|Hart Of Dixie
|The Secret Circle
|Supernatural (F)
|One Tree Hill
|final season
|Vampire Diaries
After The Secret Circle hit a series low 0.5 adults 18-49 rating last Thursday, the commenter cries began "Worse than Hart Of Dixie!", "As bad as Ringer!", not to mention the retentionistas that have had their knives out for the show all season.
Does its late season ratings plunge pull it off the "likely to be renewed" list? I don't think so, at least not yet, but I'm first to admit there's no data to back me up.
It's very rare that a show that's done reasonably well (ignore the retentionistas) for 90% of the season takes a relative ratings dive at the end like that, so I don't have any data on what that might portend.
That being the case, I'm going with something like "too little, too late", figuring that while renewal decisions have not been announced, the season's ratings history on TSC had minds at the CW already substantially made up to renew the show. But I'm in uncharted waters with that leap.
The Renew / Cancel Index above includes results beginning January 2, 2012. How did the CW's shows stack up based on their Fall results? Click here.
*shows no longer on the air have their Renew/Cancel Index "frozen" at the point they left the schedule.
- - certain to be cancelled by May, 2012
- :cry:- more likely to be cancelled than renewed by May, 2012
- - toss up between renewal or cancellation by May, 2012
- - more likely to be renewed than cancelled by May, 2012
- - certain to be renewed by May, 2012
The Renew/Cancel Index is the ratio of a scripted show's new episode adults 18-49 ratings relative to the new episode ratings of the other scripted shows on its own network. It's calculated by dividing a show's new episode Live+Same Day adults 18-49 average rating by the Live+Same Day new episode average of all the new scripted show episodes on the show's own network. The network's average ratings in the calculation are not time weighted (ex. hour long shows are not weighted twice what 30 minute shows are).
(F) -Fridays: Shows airing on Fridays were renewed with significantly lower than average Indexes.

Report: Clippers move up to #4?
Posted by Kevin Arnovitz on Thu, 06/26/08, 12:33pm:
ESPN's Ric Bucher is reporting that the Sonics have traded down to the seventh pick with the Los Angeles Clippers and will get a lottery-protected pick in 2009. More details to come.
If this rumor is true -- and the first three picks go as anticipated -- the Clippers would have their choice of the troika of combo guards: Bayless, Gordon, Westbrook.
UPDATE: Looks like it's Chad Ford with the news. He reports:
"With the No. 4 pick, expect the Clippers to take Eric Gordon of Indiana. They've coveted him as the type of dominant scorer that they've been looking for."
Clipperblog disclaims that, of the five top guards in the draft, it's least familiar with Gordon's game. But it's worth noting that Gordon was projected as a Top 3 pick going into the 2007-2008 season. He was then sidelined by injury at Indiana but has reportedly -- and apparently -- upped his stock during workouts over the past couple of weeks. Having said that, I prefer Bayless and Westbrook.
UPDATE: Though there's no confirmation of the overall deal -- much less the finer points -- we have to assume that, as the initial report suggests, the 2009 pick the Clips are dealing to the Sonics is lottery-protected. The thin margin between Gordon/Bayless/Westbrook certainly doesn't warrant much more than a mid-first rounder.
UPDATE: Ford is backing off the report, citing that there are "disagreements over the details have apparently ended discussions for now."
If your preference is Bayless or Westbrook, this could be a blessing.

Coffee in a High Market
Celine Herrera looks back to her computer screen at the 'C' prices on the international exchange; Arabica coffee is trading at $1.84USD per pound*. Since the beginning of 2010, coffee farmers have watched prices rise over 45% to a 13-year high.
Herrera, the Global Product Manager for Coffee at FLO, comes from a long line of coffee farmers in the Dominican Republic and understands the clamour that surrounds a speculative market.
"When the price shoots up based on speculation, it's not good for anyone," she says. "We have to consider the long term stability of the market and how it will adjust and how that ultimately affects producers."
The high market can be a reprieve for many farmers and producer organizations that base contracts on the current market price. But some are unable to benefit if they have fixed the price in contracts at an earlier date. Price spikes also frequently undermine the long-term financial stability of producer organizations – especially during the current global credit crisis – as they can often only pre-finance a portion of the upcoming harvest.
The current market jump – due to changing weather patterns, coffee bushes reaching the end of their productive cycle, and speculative trading – is a challenge to all players in the world of coffee, including farmers, producer organizations, traders and consumers (See graphs of arabica and robusta coffee prices from 1989-2010**).
Fairtrade helps producer organizations and farmers weather high and low markets by encouraging greater access to financing, relationship building between buyers and sellers, and improved contract terms. Fairtrade-certified producers and cooperatives also benefit from the Fairtrade Premium, a sum of money paid above the purchase price to be used in social and economic development projects.
FLO also recently began discussions of coffee pricing mechanisms to deepen the impact of Fairtrade for coffee farmers and take the positive and negative effects of the turbulent market into consideration.
In the long-term, strong Fairtrade certified producer organizations deliver greater benefits to coffee farmers through stable trading relationships that offer the social and economic infrastructure needed in coffee communities.

That which is contained herein is not to be considered a complete representation of the entirety of the histories of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

Please continue to gather and transcribe your texts, and submit them for consideration.
The Book of Penelope
a history of a venerated ancient prophet
"as transcribed" by Warlord of Elephants
Chapter I
1For canned Pasta was an Abomination before F.S.M. 2The land became barren, the waters as slime, the earth was rent and much suffering ensued. 3"We have lost our wayâ€, cried the… ummm let's see… oh yeah cried 'The Lost Ones'. 4â€We must return to the true path or at least the real trail, maybe the actual sidewalk; 5any way this stuff ain't workin'". 6So with empty bellies (for none could abide the Abomination) they did gather together salt, noodles, and water.
7It came to pass that the noodles boiled and a great huzzah went up. 8"Huzzah"! they cried (almost nobody talked then; they always cried stuff). 9"We must test it to see if'n it's ready. 10Poke it with a fork"! cried some. 11"Fling it against the wall"! cried others. 12While all the crying was going on little Penelope Pasta did Taste it. 13"Hey the kid's eatin all our pasta"! cried everybody.
14Little Penelope cried (yeah her too) "I have tasted the Pasta and it needs Garlic Butter and Meat Sauce"! 15"Huzzah"! cried the people and finished their salads with the nice ranch dressing and the little bread sticks everybody liked so much. 16So heresy was avoided, 17carbo loading was accomplished 18and the legend of the ancient prophet Penelope begun.
Chapter II
1Now as the Pastafarians were saved and hunger pains at bay there came a great lethargy upon the People. 2"We must sleep"! they cried, "for our bellies are full and T.V. hasn't been invented yet". 3So they all did fall down into a deep slumber all except Penelope. 4She'd had too many after-dinner espressos with her tiramisu.
5As she idly walked along she heard a voice: "Gird up you loins and follow". 6"Grid up my loins"? she thought, "sounds vaguely naughty". 7But as T.V. hadn't been invented yet Penelope put the Holy Colander on her head and grabbed a handy pair of salad tongs 8(not the crappy plastic ones but the good solid metal ones). 9Penelope strode (yep you guessed nobody walked anywhere then, they all strode) through the wilderness. 10The voice led her through hill and dale 11(Hill, Dale & Rill attorneys at law in the ancient world).
12Anywho soon she came to a mountain. 13"Ascend", the voice said, "Ascend and all will be clear". 14"O.K.", thought Penelope "I'll bite". 15So up she went. 16As she crossed a stream she noticed it had a bright yellow color. 17Ewww she thought, that's gross! 18She strode further and came to a tableau; 19in the tableau was a table with a red and white checked table cloth. 20A large matron was sitting eating of the Holy Meal. 21Yet no matter how much she ate the Holy Meal was not diminished.
22"Hmm", thought Penelope, "even for this story that's odd". 23The matron raised her glass (more of a mug-like affair really) and sipped; 24Penelope noticed it was the same yellow substance in the stream. 25"Oh Matron" cried Penelope "Why do you drink this"? 26The Matron smiled a whimsical matronly smile and said "I give you this for the People. 27Let it be called Beer; for this is the Beer Volcano". 28Penelope did Taste of it and it was very good, not too dry. but with a crisp finish. 29Penelope did bring the Beer to the People and there was great rejoicing.
Chapter 3
1Now it came to pass that Penelope had a good beer buzz on.... 2She strode through the land and saw all was good; 3wheat for pasta, hops and barley for beer, beef trees for meatballs, even a cheese well or two. 4The People remained unsatisfied for T.V. STILL hadn't been invented... 5As she strode (well wove actually; she'd had quite a few beers) she thought "it's a good thing automobiles haven't been invented yet. 6I'd be in BIG trouble if I were driving".
7She decided to take a short nap under a meatball tree. 8Naps had been invented just last week and Penelope was nothing if not a trend setter. 9As she slept she dreamed that she came upon a large building 10and out of the building an endless line of cute guys 11(with the occasional cute redheaded woman, told you she was trendy!). 12Any way she watched and thought "that's the LAST time I mix my beers".
13She approached one of the cute guys and noticed he was wearing only a G string and some 'pasties'. 14MMMmmm nice she thought all but the pasties. 15"It must be hard to look manly in pasties", she said. 16"You don't know the half of it"! the cute guy said. 17"What is this place?" cried Penelope. 18"Don't cry" said the cute guy "for this is the stripper factory"! 19"The Stripper factory?" cried Penelope.
20"Yes our Lord FSM created it for all those who would not be big jerks and go around telling people what to believe". 21"Well that seems decent of FSM but tell me why are there only cute guys and the occasional redheaded woman? 22I'm trendy but not everyone else is". 23"It is because you are here. 24As with the beer volcano, so it is with the stripper factory. 25YOU and your desires dictate the out-put.... 26Why last year we had on guy who stood where you are standing 27and SHEEP (shorn of course) emerged from the factory". 28The cute guy looked into Penelope's eyes and said "would you like to see my etchings?"
29Here we must leave our heroine, even ancient venerated Prophets need some privacy

|Bethel Boasts the Best in Spelling Again
|Written by Steve Frank
|Monday, 15 October 2012 13:56
Watauga's smallest school continues to provide the best county spellers. That was again the case as last week, Alyssa DiBella, a sixth grader at Bethel Elementary, won the Watauga County Schools Spelling Bee for 2012-13. Her win marks the second time in the last three years
that the district's champion speller has come from Bethel, the smallest school in the WCS system. Her winning word was "ecstatic," an appropriate final word for a person becoming a champion. The runner up in this year's competition was Zachary Holtkamp of Blowing Rock School. In addition to DiBella and Holtkamp, the school winners participating in the 2012-13 Spelling Bee included Caitlin Vines from Cove Creek, Erin Griego from Green Valley, Rebecca Anderson from Hardin Park, Benjamon Oakes from Mabel, Katie Hanna from Parkway, and Morgan Hoyt from Valle Crucis. Each school's champion advanced to the WCS finals of the Spelling Bee after winning the competition among 4th through 8th grade students at their school. Four of this year's school winners are eighth graders and three—Rebecca Anderson, Katie Hanna, and Benjamon Oakes—are fifth graders, while WCS champion Alyssa DiBella is in sixth grade.

Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 2936 is under investigation by the states Racing and Wagering Board for allegedly failing to report its gambling proceeds.
The state is currently investigating and cannot comment any further, Racing and Wagering Board spokesman Lee Parks said Friday.
Until the amount owed to the state can be determined, the post will remain closed and the organizations bell jar license has been revoked.
The post, located at 525 Caroline St., has been closed since October after it failed to pay its electricity, heating and phone bills.
At a meeting held in November, at least 60 former members expressed interest in the posts reopening.
Post members are currently seeking donations to pay off its debts and reopen the post.
Frank A. Northrup, VFW District 4 commander in charge of the posts reopening, said he could not comment on the investigation until it is concluded.
Mr. Northrup in November could not say how much money the post owes because it was still being tallied, but had predicted that the post would be back on its feet within a month.
He had said no illegal activity took place at the post.
Attempts to reach Larry F. Latimer, former post commander, were unsuccessful this week.
Mr. Latimer resigned in November, shortly after the post closed.
He has estimated that the money the post owes for outstanding utility bills is a few thousand dollars.
Lester M. Duvall, who has assumed the role of unofficial post commander, did not return a call seeking comment. He has said a lapse in keeping financial paperwork is likely partially to blame for the posts closure.

-Offices and locker rooms for women's basketball, volleyball, men's soccer and women's soccer.
-Locker rooms for officials serving both arena and Morrison Stadium events.
-Media workrooms, Athletics and hospitality meeting areas, athletics training rooms and ticket offices.
-A competition site for women's basketball and volleyball.
-A meeting place for Creighton students, faculty and staff.

|"It is a dream come true to know that my junior and senior seasons we will be competing in the new Ryan Athletic Center. I've played in and seen many different arenas around the country and the 2,500 seat arena that we are building will be one of the best. That is the perfect size for an incredible volleyball atmosphere. I can't wait to get on the court and play in front of a packed house. It is incredible to know that this dream is on its way to becoming a reality."
|"This is an exciting time for the women's basketball and volleyball programs here at Creighton. The Ryan Athletic Center is visible proof of the commitment by our university and our community to the continued growth in opportunities for women. We are thrilled to have a venue on campus that we can call our own. I think it's a great testament to the vision of what our volleyball and women's basketball programs can become, and I believe it gives us every opportunity to build on the traditions within our women's programs. I believe the Ryan Athletic Center will soon become a place for both students and the Omaha community to come and have fun supporting the Jays!"
|"It truly is an exciting time to be at Creighton University and particularly as a student-athlete. With over $200 million of construction and renovations taking place on campus, it would be hard to find a more cutting-edge campus. Additionally, the growth of our athletic facilities is unprecedented. Morrison Stadium, our soccer facility, was completed in 2003 and is arguably the best soccer facility in the country. Our men's basketball team plays in the incredible Qwest Center Omaha which was completed in 2003. This state-of-the-art facility also hosted the record breaking 2006 Volleyball Final Four and again will be hosting the Final Four in 2008. When Creighton commits to a project, they make sure it is the best. The Ryan Athletic Center, in my opinion, will be one of the top venues in the country for volleyball and women's basketball. It is a great time to be a Bluejay!"
|"I think it is a great opportunity and we are very fortunate to be able to have our own place. It will be nice to be able to play where we practice every day and I think it will help give us even more of a home-court advantage."

November 15, 2012
By Patrick Louis Knudsen
The Budget Control Act created an automatic enforcement regime that would cut federal spending by $1.2 trillion, including a devastating $55 billion per year reduction in national defense. Having failed to act all year, Congress now faces the first thrust of this "sequestration," scheduled to start January 2. To avoid slashing defense, Congress should draw from proposals to replace these sequestration cuts. This report offers proposals that could achieve $150 billion in annualized savings.
With the 2012 election now passed, Congress can no longer evade responsibility for the steep and reckless spending cuts scheduled to decimate the national defense budget starting January 2. Instead of letting this crude mechanism substitute for Congress as a governing institution, lawmakers should do what they should have done months ago: replace these mindless across-the-board cuts with specific, targeted terminations and reductions.
Lawmakers may wring their hands over the "extraordinarily painful" choices needed to offset the $55 billion in 2013 defense cuts, but a sampling of non-defense options presented at the end of this paper shows $150 billion in potential annual savings. Many of the proposed reforms and reductions are long overdue; others were developed in the House reconciliation bill that aimed at replacing the sequester. The point is: Savings are available if Congress has the will to act.
Members of the 112th Congress accepted this automatic enforcement regime, proposed by the Obama Administration (the President's denials notwithstanding),[1] thereby manufacturing the problem. The President has claimed sequestration will not happen[2] but has offered no solution. Therefore, the task falls to sitting lawmakers. They should stick to what is necessary—replacing the sequester—not encumber the legislation with "grand bargains," tax increase compromises, or specialized ad hoc procedures promising broader deficit reduction later on. Their aim should be to stabilize the situation for at least long enough to allow the new Congress to develop a longer-term solution.
Sequestration is a product of last year's lengthy debt ceiling debate. At the end of that process, in August, Congress passed the curiously named Budget Control Act (BCA)—which merely created another process to substitute for real budgeting. The legislation in part created a 12-member "supercommittee" to come up with $1.5 trillion in deficit reduction over 10 years. If the committee failed or if Congress and the President refused to enact its recommendations, an automatic enforcement regime would kick in on January 2, 2013, indiscriminately slashing $1.2 trillion in spending through 2021. When supercommittee members failed to agree on a deficit reduction package, they set the sequestration clock in motion.
Reflecting its extraordinarily unbalanced character, the procedure draws $492 billion of its savings—about 10 percent per year—from national defense. It does so even though defense, a core constitutional function of the federal government, represents less than 17 percent of total spending. Meanwhile, more than two-thirds of entitlement spending—which consumes more than 60 percent of total outlays—is shielded from the cuts. Social Security and Medicaid are fully exempt, as is all but 2 percent of Medicare spending. Another 18 percent of the cuts is to come from reduced interest payments.
Defenders of the BCA argue that this automatic enforcement mechanism was never intended to take place. It was designed to be so onerous as to bring Congress to its senses—making rational budget reduction proposals—before sequestration occurred.
Yet only one chamber of Congress responded. In May, the House passed a budget "reconciliation" bill aimed at replacing the first year of sequestration cuts with alternative savings, including in entitlement programs. The measure was far from perfect: Its first-year savings of about $15 billion offset less than one-fifth of the $78.5 billion in sequestration reductions it would replace, and its $328 billion in net savings would trim just slightly more than 1 percent from federal entitlement spending over the next 10 years.
Still, the House proposal was infinitely better than the Senate's answer to the looming sequestration—which was precisely nothing. The threat of deep, automatic spending cuts failed to induce the Senate majority to act responsibly; hence, the Damocles' Sword of sequestration now hangs over the entire Congress ever more precariously.
In many respects, the damage already has been done. Defense contractors, for example, have been paralyzed for months, uncertain of how the Pentagon budget—and hence their own production lines—would be affected. With Congress and the President also having failed to enact a single annual spending measure for fiscal year (FY) 2013, the entire government is operating on a temporary, six-month continuing resolution that could itself be slashed by sequestration starting in January.
To replace sequestration, it is helpful to understand how the mechanism is applied. For the first year, FY 2013, sequestration works by cancelling budgetary resources already in place in certain discretionary and mandatory programs. This is similar to a rescission bill, in which Congress cancels budget authority for a fiscal year already under way. Spending cuts intended to replace the sequester would function similarly.
For FY 2014–FY 2021, the discretionary spending reductions are achieved by lowering the caps on annually appropriated spending for those years. That will still require Congress either to identify policies to achieve those savings or to allow across-the-board reductions to occur.
The Heritage Foundation's long-term budget plan, Saving the American Dream[3] spells out a set of principles for guiding spending reductions to reduce the size and scope of government. These criteria are useful in choosing policies for replacing sequestration as well.
The appendix to this paper identifies more than $150 billion of potential spending reductions—a broad menu from which Congress should be able to find $55 billion in savings. Making such choices would alleviate the immediate pressure of sequestration. It also could provide a worthwhile first installment on the long-term reductions needed to get federal spending under control.
Congress has known since last November that sequestration was scheduled to fall. Lawmakers had all of 2012 to replace these broadsword reductions with real spending cuts achieved by setting priorities and making choices. They chose not to act. Now they must scramble to finish this unfinished business or let the broadsword fall.
The President and Congress created this crisis. They are capable of resolving it—if they choose to act.
Total Annualized Savings
$150.662 billion
Note: Savings amounts are Heritage Foundation calculations based on Congressional Budget Office figures, enacted appropriations policies extended in the fiscal year 2013 continuing resolution, and other sources. Savings are annualized amounts, although only three-fourths of the fiscal year will remain for offsetting the $55 billion in defense cuts. Slower phase-ins of some recommendations would also affect actual savings amounts.

Here are some frequently asked questions about the admissions process at Saybrook University. If you have any further questions please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com [1] regarding our process, or review the Saybrook University Catalog [2]:
- Can I get credit for previous academic work or life experience?
- Will my Saybrook coursework transfer to other institutions?
- Can students apply for a PhD with only a bachelor's degree?
- What are the application deadlines?
- When can I begin the program?
- May I speak with Saybrook students, alumni, and/or faculty before making my decision?
Can I get credit for previous academic work or life experience? Transferable coursework must have been graded A or B or equivalent and parallel courses offered at Saybrook.Transcripts are reviewed on a course-by-course basis.
Exact credit for prior academic work depends on the degree program you have chosen. For example, MA applicants in psychology who have completed some graduate level coursework from a regionally-accredited school, or who hold a master's degree in an unrelated field, may receive up to 12 credits towards the Saybrook master's degree in psychology. Doctoral applicants in psychology who have earned a master's degree in a related field from a regionally-accredited school may transfer a maximum of 18 credits towards a doctoral degree.
MS students in Mind-Body Medicine may transfer up to three credits and PhD students may transfer up to nine credits. An exception is made for students pursuing the PhD MBM - Integrative Mental Health specialization, where up to 30 graduate level credits may be transferred toward the 92 credit PhD, provided that students have a licensable degree in mental health. Transfer credits in MBM must be used toward an elective, or must represent a good fit for a required course.
MA students in the Department of Humanistic and Clinical Psychology may transfer up to six credits (of which three may be from cognate fields), completed during a graduate degree program from an accredited university; non-degree Saybrook certificate credits; or other non-degree credits taken at Saybrook University within the last five years. No transfer credit will be accepted from courses already applied toward another graduate degree that was previously awarded. Transfer credits will be determined by the Office of the Registrar in consultation with the degree program director and the chair of the School of PII. PhD students may transfer up to 12 credits (of which six may be from cognate fields), completed during a graduate degree program from an accredited university; non-degree Saybrook certificate credits; or non-degree credits taken at Saybrook University within the last five years. No transfer credit will be accepted from courses already applied toward another degree that was previously awarded. Transfer credits will be determine by the Office of the Registrar in consultation with the degree program director of the Department of Humanistic and Clinical Psychology and will be applied toward required electives.
Saybrook does not give direct credit for life experience, but competency in certain areas from previous graduate work, independent learning, or work experience may contribute to the pace with which you complete the programs.
Will my Saybrook coursework transfer to other institutions?
The transferability of credits you earn at Saybrook University is at the complete discretion of an institution to which you may seek to transfer. Acceptance of the degree you earn in your educational program is also at the complete discretion of the institution to which you may seek to transfer. If the credits or degree that you earn at this institution are not accepted at the institution to which you seek to transfer, you may be required to repeat some or all of your coursework at that institution.
Can students apply for a PhD with only a bachelor's degree?
Students must complete a master's degree at Saybrook or elsewhere before applying for the PhD. An exception is made for students who are applying to the PhD Clinical Psychology program, who have completed a BA/BS in Psychology, Counseling, or Social Work, or 12 semester credits/20 quarter credits of Psychology coursework at a regionally accredited college or university.
For most of our students, up to 31-credits from the master's degree may transfer into the PhD program in the same program area. For Mind-Body Medicine, all 35 credits from the Saybrook MS MBM degree will transfer toward the 82-credit PhD MBM program. Transfer credits between degree programs or from master's degrees earned elsewhere will be reviewed for relevance.
What are the application deadlines [3]?
Applications for all programs are reviewed year-round for all terms on a rolling admissions basis. You will be notified of your admissions status a few weeks after we have received your completed application. We don't wait to notify all students at the same time. We urge you to submit all your application materials at least four weeks before the term in which you want to enroll to allow time for processing and to ensure that we are able to reserve a space for you.
While there is no specific deadline for admissions, there is a scholarship deadline. (June 1 for the upcoming Fall term; October 1 for Spring term.) To be considered for the highest level of awards, we must receive all your application and financial aid materials by that date. NOTE: you should start your financial aid application (FAFSA) process [4] [4]at least three months prior to your proposed enrollment date to guarantee timely disbursement of tuition funds.
When can I begin the program?
Each school has two start dates, one in the January/February timeframe and the other in August/September. Please consult the Admissions Calendar [3] or Academic Calendars [5] for each school for additional information
May I speak with Saybrook students, alumni, and/or faculty?

AJAX for artists
sorry if i wasn't clear. not what i meant by "just keep quiet". meant, "don't tell anybody, you are just doing it for no reason". glad people (and you) say stuff (even when i disagree). am mostly devils advocate who wants everybody to think hard about why they do what they do. so few admit the most trivial things to themselves.
and it is cool posting the "template" for folks to use and not have to figure out.
do think there's a weird imbalance of support for popularity over support for utility. group mentality is often a bad thing. (which is another reason to always be skeptical, i guess)

Inbox/Outbox is currently channelling its activities through Centrifug, an exhibition space within Konsthall C in Stockholm, Sweden. The selection of exhibitions at Centrifug is based on a public booking list, released once every year. The Inbox/Outbox exhibition period is February 22nd - March 5th. I/O is for this occasion calling for participation.

Canon EF 100mm f/2 USM review: a classic never diesFriday September 07 2012 Lens Review
Strengths of the Canon EF 100mm f/2 USM include:
- Good resolution, perfect for photographers looking to earn income by taking portraits, or shooting weddings.
- Its brightness, with the lens measuring a transmission score of 2.2 T-stop. This makes the lens incredibly attractive for low light environments, but also for photographers wanting to snap pictures with a very shallow depth of field.
- Its excellent control of chromatic aberration.
- Limited distortion, with the defect remaining absent in most circumstances.
- Good control of lens shading and vignetting.
The camera's one weakness is the absence of stabilization technology, making it more vulnerable and susceptible to mobtion blur. Photographers will need a steady hand, especially when shooting at low speeds.
Further readings for the Canon EF 100mm f/2 USM review: a classic never dies
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
Affordable. Light. Compact. And a classic. The two-decade-old Canon EF 100mm f/2 USM is a popular lens known for producing high quality images. Its wide aperture and medium focal length make this Canon product ideal for newbie photographers looking to enhance their portfolio with a portrait lens.

BUFFALO, NY - There will still be long lines and plenty of deals, but Black Friday, as most of us know it, is changing.
Think of it as an economic keeping up with the Joneses.
"If we're not open at midnight, we're missing out on our customers. They have given us feedback from last year saying hey, where were you guys," said Walden Galleria assistant marketing director Natalie Tronolone.
Last year all stores at the Galleria were open by 6 a.m. Some anchor tenants had earlier openings on the day after Thanksgiving. This year it's a mandatory 12 a.m. opening for all stores in the mall. They will remain open until 11 p.m. Friday.
Walden Galleria will release a flyer with Black Friday deals on Tuesday. They will post it on the mall's web site and Facebook page.
Kmart has been open on Thanksgiving Day since the early 1990s, but this year the big box retailer is trying something different.
"Friday tends to be the bigger day, but Thursday is a surprisingly big day," said Kmart district manager Pete Hara.
Doors will open at 6 a.m. on Thanksgiving and stay open until 4 p.m. Kmart will re-open with more doorbusters at 8 p.m. Stores will close from 3 a.m. to 5 a.m. and then open back up from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m. Friday.
"It's the first time we'll be opening at eight at night, so we'll be experiencing as it happens. The potential is unlimited for the amount of people we will have in the building," said Kmart store manager Tony Kronbeck.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has concluded that a petition to list the Colorado River Cutthroat trout as threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act does not provide substantial biological information to indicate that a listing may be warranted at this time.
The Center for Biological Diversity, the Biodiversity Legal Foundation, Biodiversity Associates, Ancient Forest Rescue, Southwest Trout, Wild Utah Forest Campaign, Colorado Wild and an individual, Mr. Noah Greenwald, petitioned the Service to list the Colorado River cutthroat trout in its occupied habitat within its known historical range.
While the Colorado River cutthroat trout has declined from historic levels, the most recent biological information and surveys indicate that a significant number of viable, self-sustaining, and well-distributed populations are found throughout its historical range, said Ralph Morgenweck, Director of the Mountain-Prairie Region.
"The hard work of our state, federal, tribal, and private partners is paying off," he commented. "Their ongoing conservation efforts are responsible for the improved status of this native fish. Their continued efforts will ensure its long-term prosperity."
State agencies representing Utah, Colorado and Wyoming as well as the USDA-Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, National Park Service, the Ute Indian Tribe and the USFW formed a task force to address range-wide conservation efforts for Colorado River cutthroat trout. The task force developed conservation measures for the species in Colorado, Utah and Wyoming. It has been implementing these measures for several years.
In addition to reviewing the petition and supporting documentation, USFW examined information that was contained in its files or readily available. USFW found that:
Colorado, Utah and Wyoming report 327 conservation populations - fish that are more than 90 percent pure Colorado River cutthroat trout. Of these, 286 populations occupy approximately 1,010 stream miles and 41 populations occupy approximately 1,124 acres of lakes.
These populations include 221 core conservation populations, fish that are more than 99 percent pure Colorado River cutthroat trout, in approximately 684 stream miles and 30 core conservation populations in approximately 545 acres of lakes.
Fifty-three percent of existing core conservation populations are currently protected by a natural or artificial barrier to prevent intrusions by non-native fish.
With regard to the petition, USFW concurred that certain land management practices such as overgrazing and water diversions can have a negative impact on Colorado cutthroat trout habitat. However, it was decided that the petition did not recognize the ongoing efforts of the state and federal land management agencies to protect and conserve Colorado River cutthroat trout populations and habitat.
These agencies have also instituted fishing regulations and prohibited nonnative stocking near core or conservation populations.
USFW also acknowledges that hybridization does occur in some Colorado River cutthroat trout populations. But many populations are more than 99 percent pure Colorado River cutthroat trout - and the states of Utah, Colorado and Wyoming have implemented policies to protect the genetic purity of the core populations.
According to Morgenweck, whirling disease is a significant concern for trout in general, but few Colorado River cutthroat trout populations have tested positive for the disease, and Utah, Colorado and Wyoming are implementing management actions to protect Colorado cutthroat trout from whirling disease.
Also, the whirling disease pathogen is said to be unlikely to proliferate in much of the habitat for the Colorado River cutthroat trout because this species is generally found at higher elevations, where the water is too cold for the pathogen to survive.
The Colorado River cutthroat trout is the only salmonid native to the upper Colorado River basin. It is distinguished by its red/orange slash marks on both sides of the lower jaws and relatively large spots concentrated on the posterior part of the body.
The Colorado River cutthroat trout currently occupy portions of the Colorado River drainage in eastern Utah, Colorado and southern Wyoming and may still occur in very limited areas of New Mexico and Arizona.

By JOHN SERFUSTINISun Advocate associate editor
Thirty-six years since I began in the news biz and not once have I been dumb enough to cross the yellow crime scene tape. Until Friday morning.
It was at Burtenshaw Dorm at the college. The whole lawn across the street from the Wave Pool was taped off, as was the front door. The place was crawling with cops and the grass was flagged with those little yellow evidence markers. Toward the rear of the building, they were searching in and around the dumpster.
So I parked in the lot, hung my camera around my neck and ducked under the tape. It took maybe two seconds before an officer intercepted me. He did not approach from the side. He came head on. "Excuse me, sir. Are you with the medical examiner?"
"No, I'm with the Sun Advocate," I replied. "What's this about a medical examiner? What's going here, anyway," I asked.
"Sir, this is a crime scene. You'll have to leave. Come with me and I'll let you talk to the PIO," the cop said. PIO means public information officer. So he escorted me to to safe side of the tape where I was introduced to Richard Walton. Walton told the officer he did the right thing.
Then Walton turned to me and said, "Now go down to the far end and see how far you can get before someone stops you."
Walton, you see, had set this up. He's a criminal justice instructor at USU Eastern and this was the final day of a week of intensive CSI training for active officers. In an effort to add a little more realism to an already realistic crime scenario, he had decided to add the twist of a pushy reporter invading the area and asking questions.
Incursion two was the same as incursion one for me. Two seconds after ducking the tape an officer was in my face. They always intercept from the front, square in your path, polite but confrontational. Again, I was escorted out of the scene, this time with a warning, "If you come in again, I will arrest you. Do you understand? I will arrest you."
Same thing when I went into the building, where I got a glimpse of a chaotic dorm room before being escorted out.
So my job was done and Walton shared some information. This week is part of ongoing peace officer training, a refresher course in investigation where the police can get practice and new tips on techniques. They go over such things as photography, interpretation of blood splatter evidence, practice with bagging and tagging physical evidence to keep the chain documented and secure.
There's even hands-on practice in mixing that goo they pour in footprints to make casts for evidence.
State forensics experts are on hand as instructors and evaluators.
The classes involve anywhere from a dozen to 16 peace officers from around Southeastern Utah, any one of whom I could meet again in some unfortunate circumstance. If it happens, I'll just wave from the other side of the tape and ask for a PIO.

Water is the lifeblood of any restaurant or eatery, and keeping that water clean should be one of your top priorities. Commercial water filtration systems, when installed and working properly, help to take care of a lot of problems pipes may face. Often eliminating and preventing buildup at the source, water filtration systems should be an important piece of your ice machine assembly or steamer station. Without one doing its duty, your drinking water can get contaminated quickly. Find the right commercial water filtration system for your equipment, install it yourself or call in a technician, and avoid the trouble untreated water can cause.
