From what I have on my files is that Giftcraft was Toronto based Canadian company established in the 1940s and still active. Import and sells gift wares from all over the world. Early products seems to be mostly Japanese. The Canadian trademark GIFTCRAFT was filed 1941-11-03.
Napco was established in 1938 in Bedford, Ohio, and also imported ceramic, glass, and china giftware. "Napco originals by Giftware," was used by Napco, but it's not readily apparent if they purchased these items from Giftcraft or simply used that term on their label. In any event they were all made in Japan by a variety of contractors of which many are unknown. Finding an exact date your were made might be impossible, but even if you did would not make any real difference in their value.

Albany Bureau Chief
ALBANY,NY-- Disgraced Assemblyman Vito Lopez said Friday he will resign from office next month, less than a day after his colleagues said they would seek to expel him.
Lopez said he would resign at the end of the legislative session, which is scheduled for June 20. He is accused of sexually harassing his young female aides, though he was not criminally charged.
Lopez, 71, said he will run for New York City Council in November.
"Because the citizens of my district voted me back into office last November by an overwhelming majority, I feel obligated to serve out this session of the Assembly," Lopez said in a statement. "I therefore announce that as of June 20, the last day of the session, I resign my position."
There was no immediate comment on whether Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver, D-Manhattan, would move forward with expulsion proceedings against Lopez, the former Brooklyn Democratic chairman.
Silver indicated Thursday night that efforts to expel Lopez would begin Monday.
Silver, who was criticized in an ethics report for his handling of sexual harassment allegations against Lopez, was expected to introduce a resolution Friday asking the Assembly Ethics Committee to recommend sanctions for Lopez.
Those sanctions were expected to include expulsion, and the Assembly was set to vote Monday on the resolution.
"Given that an exhaustive investigation has already occurred by two public agencies, (Silver) expects the committee to be able to act quickly and to bring this matter back to the full Assembly with its recommendations for prompt resolution," Silver's spokesman Mike Whyland said Thursday.
The Joint Commission on Public Ethics detailed several years' worth of harassment allegations against Lopez, a once-powerful lawmaker, and found he violated the Public Officers Law.
Silver and his top aides, meanwhile, were knocked by the committee for not referring two initial allegations against Lopez to the Assembly Ethics Committee and for inserting a confidentiality agreement into a settlement.
There is precedent for expelling a member of the Legislature. Former Sen. Hiram Monserrate, D-Queens, was kicked out of the chamber by his colleagues in 2010 after he was convicted of a misdemeanor assault charge against his girlfriend.
But in the Assembly, no member has been expelled since the 1920s - because a group of lawmakers were members of the Socialist Party.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Friday reiterated his call from Thursday that Lopez should be ousted.
"I think this Assembly should make a clear statement that we don't tolerate that behavior," Cuomo said on "The Capitol Pressroom," a public radio show.

16 U.S. Code § 1539 - Exceptions
(a) Permits
(1) The Secretary may permit, under such terms and conditions as he shall prescribe—
(A) any act otherwise prohibited by section 1538 of this title for scientific purposes or to enhance the propagation or survival of the affected species, including, but not limited to, acts necessary for the establishment and maintenance of experimental populations pursuant to subsection (j) of this section; or
(A) No permit may be issued by the Secretary authorizing any taking referred to in paragraph (1)(B) unless the applicant therefor submits to the Secretary a conservation plan that specifies—
(ii) what steps the applicant will take to minimize and mitigate such impacts, and the funding that will be available to implement such steps;
(iii) what alternative actions to such taking the applicant considered and the reasons why such alternatives are not being utilized; and
(B) If the Secretary finds, after opportunity for public comment, with respect to a permit application and the related conservation plan that—
(ii) the applicant will, to the maximum extent practicable, minimize and mitigate the impacts of such taking;
(iv) the taking will not appreciably reduce the likelihood of the survival and recovery of the species in the wild; and
and he has received such other assurances as he may require that the plan will be implemented, the Secretary shall issue the permit. The permit shall contain such terms and conditions as the Secretary deems necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes of this paragraph, including, but not limited to, such reporting requirements as the Secretary deems necessary for determining whether such terms and conditions are being complied with.
(b) Hardship exemptions
(1) If any person enters into a contract with respect to a species of fish or wildlife or plant before the date of the publication in the Federal Register of notice of consideration of that species as an endangered species and the subsequent listing of that species as an endangered species pursuant to section 1533 of this title will cause undue economic hardship to such person under the contract, the Secretary, in order to minimize such hardship, may exempt such person from the application of section 1538 (a) of this title to the extent the Secretary deems appropriate if such person applies to him for such exemption and includes with such application such information as the Secretary may require to prove such hardship; except that
(A) no such exemption shall be for a duration of more than one year from the date of publication in the Federal Register of notice of consideration of the species concerned, or shall apply to a quantity of fish or wildlife or plants in excess of that specified by the Secretary;
(B) the one-year period for those species of fish or wildlife listed by the Secretary as endangered prior to December 28, 1973, shall expire in accordance with the terms of section 668cc–3 [1] of this title; and
(C) no such exemption may be granted for the importation or exportation of a specimen listed in Appendix I of the Convention which is to be used in a commercial activity.
(2) As used in this subsection, the term "undue economic hardship" shall include, but not be limited to:
(A) substantial economic loss resulting from inability caused by this chapter to perform contracts with respect to species of fish and wildlife entered into prior to the date of publication in the Federal Register of a notice of consideration of such species as an endangered species;
(B) substantial economic loss to persons who, for the year prior to the notice of consideration of such species as an endangered species, derived a substantial portion of their income from the lawful taking of any listed species, which taking would be made unlawful under this chapter; or
(C) curtailment of subsistence taking made unlawful under this chapter by persons
(c) Notice and review
The Secretary shall publish notice in the Federal Register of each application for an exemption or permit which is made under this section. Each notice shall invite the submission from interested parties, within thirty days after the date of the notice, of written data, views, or arguments with respect to the application; except that such thirty-day period may be waived by the Secretary in an emergency situation where the health or life of an endangered animal is threatened and no reasonable alternative is available to the applicant, but notice of any such waiver shall be published by the Secretary in the Federal Register within ten days following the issuance of the exemption or permit. Information received by the Secretary as a part of any application shall be available to the public as a matter of public record at every stage of the proceeding.
(d) Permit and exemption policy
The Secretary may grant exceptions under subsections (a)(1)(A) and (b) of this section only if he finds and publishes his finding in the Federal Register that
(3) will be consistent with the purposes and policy set forth in section 1531 of this title.
(e) Alaska natives
(1) Except as provided in paragraph (4) of this subsection the provisions of this chapter shall not apply with respect to the taking of any endangered species or threatened species, or the importation of any such species taken pursuant to this section, by—
if such taking is primarily for subsistence purposes. Non-edible byproducts of species taken pursuant to this section may be sold in interstate commerce when made into authentic native articles of handicrafts and clothing; except that the provisions of this subsection shall not apply to any non-native resident of an Alaskan native village found by the Secretary to be not primarily dependent upon the taking of fish and wildlife for consumption or for the creation and sale of authentic native articles of handicrafts and clothing.
(3) As used in this subsection—
(i) The term "subsistence" includes selling any edible portion of fish or wildlife in native villages and towns in Alaska for native consumption within native villages or towns; and
(ii) The term "authentic native articles of handicrafts and clothing" means items composed wholly or in some significant respect of natural materials, and which are produced, decorated, or fashioned in the exercise of traditional native handicrafts without the use of pantographs, multiple carvers, or other mass copying devices. Traditional native handicrafts include, but are not limited to, weaving, carving, stitching, sewing, lacing, beading, drawing, and painting.
(4) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (1) of this subsection, whenever the Secretary determines that any species of fish or wildlife which is subject to taking under the provisions of this subsection is an endangered species or threatened species, and that such taking materially and negatively affects the threatened or endangered species, he may prescribe regulations upon the taking of such species by any such Indian, Aleut, Eskimo, or non-Native Alaskan resident of an Alaskan native village. Such regulations may be established with reference to species, geographical description of the area included, the season for taking, or any other factors related to the reason for establishing such regulations and consistent with the policy of this chapter. Such regulations shall be prescribed after a notice and hearings in the affected judicial districts of Alaska and as otherwise required by section 1373 of this title, and shall be removed as soon as the Secretary determines that the need for their impositions has disappeared.

For purposes of this subsection, polishing or the adding of minor superficial markings does not constitute substantial etching, engraving, or carving.
(2) The Secretary, pursuant to the provisions of this subsection, may exempt, if such exemption is not in violation of the Convention, any pre-Act endangered species part from one or more of the following prohibitions:
(A) The prohibition on exportation from the United States set forth in section 1538 (a)(1)(A) of this title.
(3) Any person seeking an exemption described in paragraph (2) of this subsection shall make application therefor to the Secretary in such form and manner as he shall prescribe, but no such application may be considered by the Secretary unless the application—

(B) contains a complete and detailed inventory of all pre-Act endangered species parts for which the applicant seeks exemption;
(C) is accompanied by such documentation as the Secretary may require to prove that any endangered species part or product claimed by the applicant to be a pre-Act endangered species part is in fact such a part; and
(4) If the Secretary approves any application for exemption made under this subsection, he shall issue to the applicant a certificate of exemption which shall specify—
(C) the period of time during which the exemption is in effect, but no exemption made under this subsection shall have force and effect after the close of the three-year period beginning on the date of issuance of the certificate unless such exemption is renewed under paragraph (8); and
(5) The Secretary shall prescribe such regulations as he deems necessary and appropriate to carry out the purposes of this subsection. Such regulations may set forth—
(A) terms and conditions which may be imposed on applicants for exemptions under this subsection (including, but not limited to, requirements that applicants register inventories, keep complete sales records, permit duly authorized agents of the Secretary to inspect such inventories and records, and periodically file appropriate reports with the Secretary); and
(B) terms and conditions which may be imposed on any subsequent purchaser of any pre-Act endangered species part covered by an exemption granted under this subsection;
to insure that any such part so exempted is adequately accounted for and not disposed of contrary to the provisions of this chapter. No regulation prescribed by the Secretary to carry out the purposes of this subsection shall be subject to section 1533 (f)(2)(A)(i) of this title.
(A) Any contract for the sale of pre-Act endangered species parts which is entered into by the Administrator of General Services prior to the effective date of this subsection and pursuant to the notice published in the Federal Register on January 9, 1973, shall not be rendered invalid by virtue of the fact that fulfillment of such contract may be prohibited under section 1538 (a)(1)(F) of this title.
(7) Nothing in this subsection shall be construed to—
(A) exonerate any person from any act committed in violation of paragraphs (1)(A), (1)(E), or (1)(F) of section 1538 (a) of this title prior to July 12, 1976; or
(i) [2] Any valid certificate of exemption which was renewed after October 13, 1982, and was in effect on March 31, 1988, shall be deemed to be renewed for a six-month period beginning on October 7, 1988. Any person holding such a certificate may apply to the Secretary for one additional renewal of such certificate for a period not to exceed 5 years beginning on October 7, 1988.
(B) If the Secretary approves any application for renewal of an exemption under this paragraph, he shall issue to the applicant a certificate of renewal of such exemption which shall provide that all terms, conditions, prohibitions, and other regulations made applicable by the previous certificate shall remain in effect during the period of the renewal.
(C) No exemption or renewal of such exemption made under this subsection shall have force and effect after the expiration date of the certificate of renewal of such exemption issued under this paragraph.
(D) No person may, after January 31, 1984, sell or offer for sale in interstate or foreign commerce, any pre-Act finished scrimshaw product unless such person holds a valid certificate of exemption issued by the Secretary under this subsection, and unless such product or the raw material for such product was held by such person on October 13, 1982.
(g) Burden of proof
In connection with any action alleging a violation of section 1538 of this title, any person claiming the benefit of any exemption or permit under this chapter shall have the burden of proving that the exemption or permit is applicable, has been granted, and was valid and in force at the time of the alleged violation.
(h) Certain antique articles; importation; port designation; application for return of articles
(1) Sections 1533 (d) and 1538 (a) and (c) of this title do not apply to any article which—

If on the basis of any such application which is timely filed, the Secretary is satisfied that the requirements of this paragraph are met with respect to the article concerned, the Secretary shall return the article to the applicant and the importation of such article shall, on and after the date of return, be deemed to be a lawful importation under this chapter.
(i) Noncommercial transshipments
Any importation into the United States of fish or wildlife shall, if—
(1) such fish or wildlife was lawfully taken and exported from the country of origin and country of reexport, if any;

(A) The Secretary may authorize the release (and the related transportation) of any population (including eggs, propagules, or individuals) of an endangered species or a threatened species outside the current range of such species if the Secretary determines that such release will further the conservation of such species.
(B) Before authorizing the release of any population under subparagraph (A), the Secretary shall by regulation identify the population and determine, on the basis of the best available information, whether or not such population is essential to the continued existence of an endangered species or a threatened species.
(C) For the purposes of this chapter, each member of an experimental population shall be treated as a threatened species; except that—
(i) solely for purposes of section 1536 of this title (other than subsection (a)(1) thereof), an experimental population determined under subparagraph (B) to be not essential to the continued existence of a species shall be treated, except when it occurs in an area within the National Wildlife Refuge System or the National Park System, as a species proposed to be listed under section 1533 of this title; and
(3) The Secretary, with respect to populations of endangered species or threatened species that the Secretary authorized, before October 13, 1982, for release in geographical areas separate from the other populations of such species, shall determine by regulation which of such populations are an experimental population for the purposes of this subsection and whether or not each is essential to the continued existence of an endangered species or a threatened species.

Mace Jensen surveys damage after firefighters quelled the house fire.
A fire damaged part of a home in Wellington on Thursday morning.
Mace Jensen, a Wellington resident, said he was testing out his wood burning stove when he accidentally left the door to the stove open and walked into his home. Soon after smoke and flames began shooting out of the door.
Jensen and neighbors fought the flames with garden hoses while they dialed 911. Firefighters arrived at the home a short time later.
The fire from the stove ignited materials that were close by in the room, according to Wellington Fire Chief Johnny Powell.
While the fire damaged the room with the stove, the house did not suffer any serious damage. Firefighters created holes around the sides of the room to help push smoke out. After the fire was extinguished, a large pile of sheet rock, burned wood and insulation laid on the ground as firefighters cleared out the room.
Jensen was the only one at the home when the fire started.
While the fire only damaged the room with the stove in it, Powell said things could have been much worse as the fire could have caused more damage to the home.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the US Bureau of Ocean Energy Management are preparing a supplemental draft environmental impact statement (EIS) analyzing how a broader range of potential Arctic offshore oil and gas activities could affect marine mammals, other resources, and Alaska Native communities, the two agencies jointly announced on Jan. 25.
They said a supplemental draft EIS is necessary because the agencies have determined that broader oil and gas activity than what's in the original draft EIS needs to be considered, NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service said in a notice scheduled to be published in the Jan. 31 Federal Register.
The new analysis follows comments received after the original draft EIS was released in December 2011, NOAA and BOEM said. The original draft analyzed up to two exploratory drilling programs per year in both the Chukchi and Beaufort seas. The supplemental draft EIS will analyze the effects of up to four drilling programs per year in each area, the agencies said.
They said they expect to release the supplemental draft EIS this spring, and complete a final EIS in early 2014 to guide BOEM's decisions concerning oil and gas exploration and NOAA's decisions concerning incidental take authorizations for marine mammals.
The members of Alaska's congressional delegation welcomed the news. US Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R), the Energy and Natural Resources Committee's ranking minority member, said that when the delegation met with NOAA Administrator Jane Lubchenco last spring, members expressed concern that NOAA would impose restrictions in addition to those of BOEM, a US Department of the Interior agency.
'Deeply flawed'
"I was clear that the original environmental impact statement was deeply flawed and went beyond the agency's expertise and mission," Murkowski said on Jan. 25. "I appreciate the willingness to take a second look, but I continue to believe that this document is unnecessary and that NOAA is interfering with matters that rightfully belong under the jurisdiction of Interior."
"The fact that NOAA heard what the delegation and I had to say and expanded the document speaks volumes for the process and framework established by the Interagency Working Group," said US Sen. Mark Begich (D).
"This is just another piece of the puzzle that needed to happen for Alaskans to begin to reap the benefits of responsible oil and gas development in the Arctic," he continued. "We still have to see what the final document says, but I'm glad they've changed course and NOAA is now on the right track to properly balance protection of subsistence resources and encouraging Arctic development."
"From the beginning, it was clear to the delegation and industry stakeholders that the original DEIS was insufficient and unworkable," said US Rep. Don Young (R), who chairs the Natural Resources Committee's Indian and Alaska Native Affairs Subcommittee. "I commend NOAA for taking this step and responding to some of our concerns. I will be taking a look at this product and provide further comment at that time."

|Avery County Penny Challenge for Eagle Habitat
|Written by Landis Wofford, Grandfather Mountain
|Monday, 16 April 2012 11:39
Avery County elementary students collected their loose change March 19 - 30 and brought it to school for the Penny Challenge hosted by the Grandfather Mountain Stewardship Foundation. The five elementary schools collected a total of $3,745.75, all benefitting the upcoming renovations on the eagle habitats
at Grandfather Mountain.Newland Elementary School raised the most change with a total of $1,226.06. Grandfather Mountain Stewardship Foundation President Penn Dameron and members of the habitat staff visited the school last week to announce that Kelly Ward's third grade class was the overall winner for the county with a total of $253.78. The class received balloons, candy, a framed photograph of Grandfather Mountain's golden eagle Morely and a trip to Grandfather Mountain that will include a behind the scenes tour of the animal habitats. During the field trip, the students will make and give enrichments to the habitat animals.
The top class at each of the four other elementary schools were also rewarded with an upcoming trip to Grandfather. These four classes receive a guided habitat tour and will also be able to make and give enrichments to the animals. The winning classes are Beth Waycaster's second and third grade combination class from Banner Elk Elementary, Nancy Christensen's first grade class from Riverside Elementary, Julie Johnson's fourth grade class from Crossnore Elementary and Jessica Jones' fifth grade class from Freedom Trail Elementary.
"We would like to thank every student that participated in the Penny Challenge," said Grandfather Mountain Stewardship Foundation Habitats Manager Christie Tipton. "The amount raised by the entire county is incredible and we can't wait to start these renovations."
Though the current eagle habitats at Grandfather Mountain are attractive and well maintained, the enclosure is open-topped, creating several potential issues. Ravens, bears and other animals can enter the eagles' home, stealing their food and posing a threat to their well-being.
Another drawback stemming from the lack of a fully enclosed eagle habitat is Grandfather's inability to adopt other eagles that may be partially or fully flighted. Even though these eagles may have the ability to fly normally, other injuries, such as eye problems, could render them unable to hunt for food and survive in the wild. The renovations, set to occur later this year, will add tops to the enclosures.
The Grandfather Mountain Stewardship Foundation is a not-for-profit corporation established to preserve Grandfather Mountain, operate the nature park sustainably in the public interest, provide an exceptional experience for guests, and inspire them to be good stewards of the earth's resources.

The ZR45MC has a number of additional features for ease of use and creative control.
This searches for images recorded in Photo Mode. You can search forwards or backwards through the images one at a time, or +/-10 from the current position.
The ZR45MC records a time code signal along with the video signal. This time code accurately identifies every point on the DV tape by hour, minute, second and frame. This is valuable when editing on a personal computer or professional video editing system.
The DV standard calls for the automatic recording of date and time, shutter speed, exposure settings and other key camera data on the tape as you shoot. The ZR45MC does not permanently superimpose this data over your video. Instead, the data remains hidden until you select it for display during playback or editing. You can turn the display on or off at will, and you can decide which data you want to display.
The full-function wireless remote control (WL-D74) of the ZR45MC will work at distances up to 16 feet (4.9m). The remote can start and stop recordings, zoom the lens, handle all playback (VCR) functions, handle audio and video dubbing functions, and more.

Customer Reviews
- Great piece of gear (Review by Cyclist and backpacker)
I have a small bag of "get out of town" gear that I threw this in. I frequently just put this on my bike and go for a 2- or 3-day tour. It's a great piece of gear. Condensation management is always an issue for backcountry trips in cold weather, so I want to address what the other reviewers have written. I also work as a mountaineering guide. The Highland Bivy, if I had to guess, is designed for someone who wants to go light and go fast and still sleep well in slightly colder temperatures. Because it's intentionally water proof, it's able to keep you warmer than a typical 3-season mesh tent without requiring you to bring a thick sleeping bag. I usually sleep in just a fleece sleeping bag liner with this bivy (wearing long underwear also and sometimes a jacket) and I have had no trouble with condensation. I would recommend sleeping in very few layers and draping a parka over your upper body in order to "get really warm" and start to fall asleep. Push the parka aside for the rest of the night and you should be able to avoid sweat buildup. In mountaineering we say, "water from the inside (e.g., sweat) is always more pleasant than water from the outside" (e.g., freezing rain). This can also be used as a bivy inside a snow cave. And, yes, the single-pole does not self-balance. I usually just find a place for it to balance or balance it against a backpack. For me, a floppy pole is a fine tradeoff to make for a rugged waterproof bivy that packs up into a bag the size of a soda can and weighs nothing.

By TERRY WILLISSun Advocate sports reporter
A season full of many ties and a lot of region losses came down to one big game for the Carbon Dino soccer team. A week ago Carbon was schooled by Wasatch 12-1. Then they lost to Union 4-0 last Friday before taking their fist region win in more than a season. The Dinos downed American Leadership Academy 5-4 to earn a trip to post-season play.
The last time ALA and Carbon met, the contest ended in a double overtime draw. Whoever won this game would get a berth in the play-offs and the other would live in the Region 10 cellar.
ALA scored the first two goals using the favorable slope and the wind to their advantage. The Dinos put one in before the half was up. They quickly tied it up in the first minutes of the second half. Jorge Mendiola led the charge and he was able to score a hat trick plus one in the winning effort. Milton Sawamara added the other goal. Sawamara and Mendiola also had an assist. Tanner Gagnon fed his scorers three assists as well.
The last time Carbon was able to take part in the playoffs was when it was an automatic berth due playing in a small region. This time they had to earn it.
"This was a big win. We completely dominated them. Some of their goals were weak, but ours were all earned and we had assists on all of them. Many of our kids have not had any playoff experience, but this game was like a playoff game," said coach Keith Palmer after the game. "This is big for our program because it gives us an extra game and an extra week of practice. It will help our program a lot for the future."
The Dinos have one last regular season game with Park City next Wednesday over at Park City. It is looking like the play-off game will be against Delta. Delta is the number one seed in region 12. Palmer feels like this is the best top team they could face in the playoffs and is optimistic that Carbon will have a good game as they face Delta. That game will be May 5 in Delta.

Salil Godika Chief Strategy & Marketing Office at Happiest Minds and Ismael Ciordia, Chief Technology Officer at Openbravo.
Oct 8 2015
61 mins
Omnichannel is at the heart of today's Retail Transformation. However, most retail CIOs still struggle to redesign their technology frameworks to serve today's multichannel connected customer and support a growing number of new ways to shop. Lack of an omnichannel strategy, rigid legacy systems not allowing to leverage the benefits of cloud and mobile technologies, non-single view of customers across channels or lack of inventory visibility across enterprise to support distributed order management capacity are only some of the key challenges retail CIOs are facing.
This webinar will be conducted by Ismael Ciordia, Chief Technology Officer at Openbravo, Salil Godika, Chief Strategy & Marketing Officer and Industry Group Head at Happiest Minds and introduced by Xavier Places, Product Marketing Director at Openbravo.
What Will You Learn?

- How some leading customers in the Specialty Retail subsector are progressing on their omnichannel path with the help of Openbravo.
