(a) The penalty with respect to the marketing, by sale, of wheat, cotton, or rice, if the sale is to any person within the United States, shall be collected by the buyer.
(b) All penalties provided for in part B of this subchapter shall be collected and paid in such manner, at such times, and under such conditions as the Secretary may by regulations prescribe. Such penalties shall be remitted to the Secretary by the person liable for the penalty, except that if any other person is liable for the collection of the penalty, such other person shall remit the penalty. Except as provided in section 1314h [1] of this title, the amount of such penalties shall be covered into the general fund of the Treasury of the United States.
(c) Whenever, pursuant to a claim filed with the Secretary within two years after payment to him of any penalty collected from any person pursuant to this chapter, the Secretary finds that such penalty was erroneously, illegally, or wrongfully collected and the claimant bore the burden of the payment of such penalty, the Secretary shall certify to the Secretary of the Treasury for payment to the claimant, in accordance with regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury, such amount as the Secretary finds the claimant is entitled to receive as a refund of such penalty.
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Secretary is authorized to prescribe by regulations for the identification of farms and it shall be sufficient to schedule receipts into special deposit accounts or to schedule such receipts for transfer therefrom, or directly, into the separate fund provided for in subsection (b) of this section by means of such identification without reference to the names of the producers on such farms.
The Secretary is authorized to prescribe regulations governing the filing of such claims and the determination of such refunds.
(d) No penalty shall be collected under this chapter with respect to the marketing of any agricultural commodity grown for experimental purposes only by any publicly owned agricultural experiment station. Effective with the 1978 crops, no penalty shall be collected under this chapter with respect to the marketing of any agricultural commodity grown on State prison farms for consumption within such State prison system.

Jacks bounced out in semifinals
The South Dakota State women's tennis team was bested 4-0 by Kansas City in the second women's semifinal on Friday night in Fort Wayne, Ind.
The teams played late into the night at Dr. Rudy and Rhonda Kachmann Tennis Center, under the lights and in the cold, on the campus of Fort Wayne.
In the first semifinal of the day, top-seeded and host Fort Wayne defeated fourth-seeded South Dakota 4-0.
The scoreboard listed a shutout, but it was anything but easy, as three matches were late in the second set and possibly headed for a third when decision was reached.
The Jacks jumped out to an early lead at two doubles positions, but the Kangaroos bounced back for the team point.
Jenny Blackburne and Ffion Davies played versus Laura Bouet and Eva Dalvai at No. 1. The 'Roos broke twice early for a quick lead. Blackburne and Davies battled back, but were unable to even the match and Kansas City won 8-4.
In the second doubles match, Tacy Haws-Lay and Brooke Henry were on top from the get-go versus Amelie Amsallem and Suzan Lisenby. The duo broke twice in the early going and led by three games at one point in the match. Kansas City broke back late in the match to even the score and broke again for the 9-7 win.
Florencia Magni and Beatriz Souza controlled the No. 3 match versus Gabby Pintos and Maddie Schulte from its onset. Like the middle team, the duo broke twice for the early lead and made it stand for a convincing 8-4 win.
In singles, all matches were on serve early, but the 'Roos separated from the Jacks as the matches continued.
Florencia Magni and Bouet played at the top spot and were even early, but Bouet pulled away in the first set for a 6-2 win. Kansas City scored its first singles point after a 6-1 win in the second set.
Ffion Davies and Dimitra Stavrianakou were matched at No. 2. Davies required a medical timeout prior to the match, but was able to continue after treatment. Stavrianakou broke for an early lead and won the first set 6-1. The 'Roos won the second set 6-0 for its second singles point.
In the No. 3 match, Jenny Blackburne and Dalvai battled on serve through the first set. The two were on serve until late in the set, when Blackburne broke and held serve for a 6-4 win. The match was unfinished in the second set, on serve.
Beatriz Souza and Schulte also battled on serve throughout the first set at No. 4. The two were on serve until the end of the set, when Souza broke for a 6-4 win. Souza trailed 5-3 in the second set, but the match was unfinished.
Tacy Haws-Lay played Suzan Lisenby tough in the first few games at No. 5, but Lisenby broke serve midway through the first set and won 6-3. Haws-Lay rebounded in the second set and led 5-1, but it was the final unfinished match of the night.
In the final spot, Tiffany Filipovich faced Amelie Amsallem. Amsallem controlled the first set with a 6-1 win. Filipovich did not go out without a fight, however, coming from behind to even the second set at 4-4. Unfortunately for the Jacks, Amsallem won the next two games to close out the match and the meet.
SDSU finished the regular season with a 15-10 overall record, but made school history with its first trip to the postseason. The Jacks earned two all-league honorees, including the first Newcomer of the Year award.

Clinical/Scientific Implications
The question of when to proceed with a post-chemoradiation neck dissection in patients with an excellent response to treatment remains largely unanswered. This study, though somewhat limited in size and retrospective, suggests that the majority of patients demonstrating a CCR to chemoradiation may be adequately managed without a neck dissection. Predicting those that will ultimately experience neck relapse, however, is a more difficult task, and, as suggested by the authors, an area in which functional imaging might prove valuable.

text: After spending more than two years in solitary confinement in a storeroom at the Price maintenance domes, Kokopelli is out in the open again. A crew lifted and secured the bronze statue to a pedestal in the rose garden on the corner of 100 East and 100 North in Price. The Gary Prazen sculpture was once in the middle of the intersection of Main Street and 100 West, but the city removed it because it was deemed hazardous to navigation. The statue and city drivers are both safer with the relocation.

Here are some cuties things I found while blogstalking during my sick days, and some other odds and ends...
|This slideshow design personalized with Smilebox
5. Of course, Michelle is always inspiring with her great ideas. Read HERE about how she organizes reading in her room. I'm up for anything with a Rainbow theme :) {Another great idea, Michelle: let's organize our trip to Christmas Tree Shops!!!!!}
6. April posted the cuuuuutest Zoo Unit with adorable art projects! Filing this away for May!
7. And you can't go wrong with anything from my sweet friend at First Grade Parade. Cara's March Madness bundle is loaded {and I mean loaded} with great stuff for this month.
8. I finally got my scanner working {temporarily, I'm sure!} so here are the Contraction Kid Cut-Outs and the nametags that go with the activity. Click on the pic to download :)
9. Today is the last day of my 20% off *sale* on Teacher's Pay Teachers. Check it out HERE.
10. I'm in the process of completing my IRB application to have my research project approved by the university I attend. What a tedious process! Has anyone else had to do this? {I'm studying literacy and looping, btw, to see if students who loop perform better on literacy-related assessments than their non-looping counterparts.}

16 U.S. Code § 469 - Preservation of historical and archeological data threatened by dam construction or alterations of terrain
It is the purpose of sections 469 to 469c–1 of this title to further the policy set forth in sections 461 to 467 of this title, by specifically providing for the preservation of historical and archeological data (including relics and specimens) which might otherwise be irreparably lost or destroyed as the result of
(1) flooding, the building of access roads, the erection of workmen's communities, the relocation of railroads and highways, and other alterations of the terrain caused by the construction of a dam by any agency of the United States, or by any private person or corporation holding a license issued by any such agency or
(2) any alteration of the terrain caused as a result of any Federal construction project or federally licensed activity or program.

(1) Pick one NFL team each week
(2) You can not pick the same team twice (similar to survivor/knockout)
(3) You receive the number of points equal to what your team scored
(4) Your selection must be logged before kickoff of the game you choose
(5) The Regular Season winner is the person with the most points at the end of the 16-game season
6) Every participant will select one BYE week. You can choose any week you want. You don't need to select that week in advance. If you fail to make a selection by Kickoff time and you have not used your BYE week, then you will automatically get a BYE for that week.
7) Playoffs: The top 12 participants by points at the end of the regular season will make the playoffs. Then, those 12 people will pick the one real playoff team whose playoff points they want. The regular season winner picks first, the second place finisher picks second and so on. The 12th place finisher is stuck with the last team not chosen. Regular season points do not count toward playoff totals. In case of a tie, the playoff champion will be the team that advances the furthest.
8) Don't sweat the petty things and don't pet the sweaty things.
Games for Week 10: (note there is a Thursday game this week - Redskins @ Vikings)
Registered Players, Standings and Used Picks: (be sure to check here for teams you have already used)
Your New England Patriots offered the most points for the week (55). That's also the most points scored by any team this season. And mrmojo1120 (is that a Jim Morrison tribute?) was the only player that took the Pats. That choice was enough to propel mrmojo1120 from 19th place to 15th. Congratulations! The next best point total was available by taking the Eagles (49), but everyone missed out on that opportunity. Coolade2 is on top for the 3rd consecutive week. The lead is still just 6 points. AyyyBoston is the new leader of game players who have taken a BYE and is only 6 points off the overall lead.

The Union was formed as a confederation of States that joined together voluntarily. It was the States that joined together, not the people.
The Founders saw the States as checks on the Federal government. They understood that the Federal government would attempt to assume more power than it was granted by the Constitution. So the Senate was devised in Article I, Section 3 in such a way as to give the State legislatures Senate-appointing powers. This made the Senators accountable to the States rather than special interests.
The War of Northern Aggression (aka the Civil War) took away one check the States had on Federal overreach: secession. The 17th Amendment took away the other. (As an aside, Obamacare would never have passed if not for the passage of the 17th Amendment.)
Once direct election of Senators was established, States — and, therefore, the citizens — lost control of their Senators. Now Senators are fascists. They are beholden to the corporations that fund their campaigns. They pass laws to benefit those corporations to the detriment of the people they are supposed to represent. Unless you have deep pockets, it is almost impossible to gain an audience with a U.S. Senator. At best, all you can expect is lip service.
In Federalist No. 62, James Madison wrote, "The appointment of senators by the state legislatures… is recommended by the double advantage of favoring a select appointment, and of giving to the state governments such an agency in the formation of the federal government, as must secure the authority of the former… In this spirit it may be remarked, that the equal vote allowed to each State is at once a constitutional recognition of the portion of sovereignty remaining in the individual States, and an instrument for preserving that residuary sovereignty. So far the equality ought to be no less acceptable to the large than to the small States; since they are not less solicitous to guard, by every possible expedient, against an improper consolidation of the States into one simple republic."
While a repeal of the 17th Amendment won't completely abolish the fascist corporatocracy that currently rules to our detriment, it would go a long way toward improving the system. The 17th Amendment must be repealed.

The delicious Gelato shop and coffee bar features daily-made artisanal gelato produced in small hand-made batches every morning, using the best available ingredients: local fruits, herbs, eggs, cheese, milk and cream.
There are over 400 rotating flavors served year round, and nine incredible new flavors coming this summer including Blackberries & Cream, Chocolate-Mint Stracciatella, Valrhona Chocolate Amargo, and Salted Caramel.

Dr. Marvin P. Masada's Ratings
Dr. Masada is a very knowledgeable and compassionate doctor. After a recommendation from a friend, I began seeing him in 2004. One of many things I like about Dr. Masada is that he is so knowledgeable, and if he does not know he will find out or refer you to a specialist. He really cares about his patients, and the families of his patients. He is definitely someone you want to look after your total well being. He has become my entire family's physician, and we all recommend to our friends.

Dr. Masada does not just make his patients feel like he cares...he DOES care. He offered to drive 20 minutes out of his way to bring me a dose of antibiotics when I had pneumonia. I got a referral from a friend, and I have since referred 6 patients to Dr. Masada. They are all happy with him. He is wonderful! He'll work hard to make sure you have the right diagnosis, medications, treatment, etc. I feel so lucky to have him treating my family.

Kass Esplin demonstrates his salt water welding machine during the Carbon County School District's science fair Tuesday evening.
After the judging was completed, the Mont Harmon Junior High student won first place in the junior division of the engineering competition and third place in the overall outstanding project category at the event.
Esplin said he had welded with the technique at the fair, but the machine kept blowing the power breakers so he had to stop.
Students from the secondary schools in the district competed in 14 different areas.

February 6, 2012
By James Phillips and James Jay Carafano, Ph.D.
Israel has signaled once again that it is weighing an attack, if all else fails, to halt Iran's advancing nuclear weapons program as an act of anticipatory self-defense. This time, more officials in Washington and other capitals are listening. Iranian officials have repeatedly warned that Tehran will retaliate against the U.S. in the event that Israel launches a strike. The U.S. should have a clear and unambiguous policy on how it will respond if Israel undertakes legitimate action for its self-defense.
Before an Attack
To mitigate the threats posed by Iran to U.S. national security and to protect U.S. interests, the United States should:
If an Attack Occurs
Be Prepared
The U.S. should stand shoulder to shoulder with Israel in confronting Iran's growing nuclear menace. If Jerusalem decides to exercise its right of self-defense, then the U.S. and its allies should support that decision, not condemn it. The brutal dictatorship in Tehran has been given ample warning that its longstanding violations of its legal obligations under international treaties will have a progressively heavy cost, yet it defiantly continues to enrich uranium, issue threats, and order terrorist attacks, including one plot to bomb a restaurant in Washington, D.C. If Iran is willing to risk such an attack before it gains nuclear weapons, what threats is it likely to pose after it attains nuclear weapons? The U.S. and its allies cannot afford to find out.

US soldiers deployed in Iraq can now get language assistance from an iPhone or Blackberry. Sakhr Software, a company specializing in translation software, is porting its translation technology to work on mobile smart phone devices. It recently developed a tool for the iPhone to enable speech to speech translation. What this means is that you could speak directly into the phone in English and have the phone speak back to you in Arabic. Furthermore, it displays the translation in both Arabic and English characters allowing you to attempt to pronounce it correctly. Quite impressive!!
For the time being, it seems that the technology had been built to serve the US Department of Defense, to help bridge the communication gap between deployed soldiers and locals of the Middle East and ensure diplomacy is preserved in the field as well as avoid accidents due to miscommunication. We can't wait to see this available to the civilian market where anyone can tour any street in a small town in say Egypt, and be able to communicate directly with the locals.

GOUVERNEUR The Internal Revenue Service has revoked the tax-exempt status of Gouverneur Volunteer Rescue Squad for failing to file returns for three consecutive years, but the emergency response organization hopes to have its nonprofit status reinstated retroactively.
Its something I have been working diligently to get straightened around, said Mark A. Deavers, director of operations. That has been my total priority.
The loss of nonprofit status means that donations no longer are tax-exempt, that squad purchases would include sales tax and that its income most likely would be taxable.
I do know they can do their thing, but they would have to do it in a different way, said Craig C. Ballard, a member of St. Lawrence Countys Emergency Services Advisory Board.
Mr. Deavers, who started working for the squad earlier this year, said he was not sure who dropped the ball on the tax returns.
I really dont have an answer, except the board was worried about the wrong things, he said.
Rose Jackson was the squads treasurer for at least one year during the disputed period, but she said she was unaware the taxes had not been filed.
I have no idea. Thats my honest answer, she said. Theres a lot of things I probably should have known that were kept away.
Mrs. Jackson would not be specific on who kept things from her or what they were. She is no longer with the squad.
The last tax return filed by the squad was for 2009. The return was signed by tax preparer David J. Hermann, Hermann Accounting Services, Watertown, who moved to North Carolina and is in semiretirement.
Mr. Hermann said he would have done the squads later returns if he had the information. In previous years, the squad had given him balance sheets, income statements and a general ledger to prepare the returns. But that changed.
I never got the stuff. They had only provided me with bank statements and 1099s from insurance companies, he said. I was busy and I didnt have time to push them.
But Mrs. Jackson said the squads problems with the IRS are because of Mr. Hermann.
We had an accountant that supposedly was doing our taxes, she said. We kept asking him and asking him. He never asked for anything.
The squad lost financial data through a computer system upgrade and is reconstructing its books and records, Mr. Deavers said.
It has hired Crowley & Halloran CPAs, Watertown, to file the returns and conduct an audit. Any donations received will be held pending the return of the squads tax-exempt status, Mr. Deavers said.
The squad has had a number of board changes in recent years and had another on Wednesday, electing Tom Rusaw as president, Shawn Woods as vice president and Thomas Sharpe as treasurer.
They made a whole bunch of changes to the bylaws to make sure this doesnt happen again, Mr. Deavers said. The membership really did react very strongly.
Mr. Rusaw had been interim treasurer since June, Mr. Deavers said.
We knew the taxes were delinquent but we thought we had extensions, Mr. Deavers said.
Volunteer organizations can fall behind on keeping good records and paperwork requirements, Mr. Hermann said.
Its not terribly unusual because theyre changing officers all the time, he said. They need somebody on their end thats going to provide some kind of continuity. I cant make magic.
The squads problems come at a time when it was starting to rebuild, with 36 members and nine paid staff members.
Its really unfortunate because its a dedicated group of both volunteers and paid staff, Mr. Deavers said. We have to be responsible and accountable. We will be.

ObjectivesThe Forest Carbon Partnership Facility
(FCPF), which became operational in June 2008, is a global partnership focused on
reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation, forest carbon stock
conservation, sustainable management of forests and enhancement of forest carbon stocks
(REDD+). The FCPF complements the UNFCCC negotiations on REDD+ by demonstrating how REDD+ can
be applied at the country level and by learning lessons from this early implementation phase.
The FCPF has created a framework and processes for REDD+ readiness, which helps countries get
ready for future systems of financial incentives for REDD+. Using this framework, each
participating country develops an understanding of what it means to become ready for REDD+,
in particular by developing reference scenarios, adopting a REDD+ strategy, designing
monitoring systems and setting up REDD+ national management arrangements, in ways that are
inclusive of the key national stakeholders.
GovernanceThe FCPF currently has thirty six REDD Country Participants (13 in
Africa, 15 in Latin America and the Caribbean, and eight in Asia-Pacific). The partnership
relies on an effective and inclusive governance structure, with the Participants Assembly and
the Participants Committee at its core.
The Participants Assembly, which is comprised of all the countries and organizations
participating in the FCPF, meets annually and elects the Participants Committee. The
Participants Committee is made up of an equal number of forest (REDD+) countries (14) and
financial contributors (14), and is also comprised of observers representing indigenous
peoples, civil society, international organizations, the UN-REDD Programme, the UNFCCC
Secretariat and the private sector. The Committee is the main decision-making body of the
FCPF. It reviews country submissions, decides on grant resource allocation, approves budgets
inter alia.
The World Bank assumes the functions of trustee and secretariat. The World Bank, the
Inter-American Development Bank and United Nations Development Programme are Delivery
Partners under the Readiness Fund and responsible for providing REDD+ readiness support
services to distinct countries.
Readiness FundWith assistance from the Readiness Fund (currently about US$258
million committed or pledged by 15 public donors, each having provided at least US$5
million), each participating country prepares itself for REDD+ by developing the necessary
policies and systems, in particular by adopting national strategies; developing reference
emission levels; designing measurement, reporting and verification (MRV) systems; and setting
up REDD+ national management arrangements, including the proper safeguards.
The focus of the FCPF to date has been on REDD+ readiness. A total of 33 countries have
already prepared their Readiness Preparation Proposals, of which 26 for formal assessment,
and nine have received grants to implement these proposals.
In the readiness phase, significant cooperation has been developed between the FCPF and the
UN-REDD Programme, the Forest Investment Program and the Global Environment Facility. In
addition, a common approach to environmental and social safeguards has been developed, which
allows the proceeds of the FCPF Readiness Fund to flow through the various Delivery Partners.
Carbon FundThe Carbon Fund, the second fund of the FCPF became operational in
May 2011. It will provide payments for verified emission reductions from REDD+ programs in
countries that have made considerable progress towards REDD+ readiness. About five REDD
Country Participants will qualify for the Carbon Fund based on a progress assessment by the
FCPF Participants Committee.
Programs submitted to the Carbon Fund (currently about US$390 million committed or pledged by
ten public and private contributors, each having provided at least US$5 million) will have to
meet the following criteria:
• Focus on results, namely high-quality and sustainable emissions reductions
including social and environmental benefits;
• Sufficient scale of implementation, e.g., at the level of an administrative
jurisdiction within a country or at the national level;
• Consistency with emerging compliance standards under the UNFCCC and other
• Diversity, so as to generate learning value for the FCPF and other
• Clear mechanisms so that the incentives for REDD+ reach those who need them;
• Transparent stakeholder consultations.
In addition, programs implemented at the sub-national scale will need to be consistent with
the emerging national strategies, reference emission levels and MRV systems, and be
accompanied by measures to assess and minimize the risk of leakage.
The Carbon Fund is intended to play a catalytic role for REDD+, building on the experience of
pioneering initiatives such as the BioCarbon Fund. Accordingly, Carbon Fund commitments
should be made early enough to provide incentives to countries to adopt the necessary
policies and systems and undertake the necessary investments. Consistent with the UNFCCC
decision on REDD+ adopted in Cancun in December 2010, the readiness, investment and
performance-based payment phases are not purely sequential but will instead overlap to a
large extent. Nevertheless, to ensure that carbon finance builds on readiness achievements,
the FCPF Participants Committee must have assessed a country's Readiness Package before
the country can enter into an Emission Reductions Payment Agreement with the Carbon
The Carbon Fund will deliver emission reductions to the financial contributors to the fund
pro rata to the capital share.
Main ActivitiesIn the year ahead, the FCPF will advance its work on critical
issues at the interface between readiness and carbon finance, in particular the readiness
package assessment framework, reference levels and MRV for sub-national emission reductions
programs, valuation approaches for emission reductions, and the methodological and pricing
approach to govern the Carbon Fund.

Australia and Indonesia are currently working on a demonstration activity in the carbon rich
peatland forests of Central Kalimantan – the Kalimantan Forests and Climate Partnership
(KFCP). This Partnership is the first, large-scale demonstration activity of its kind in
Indonesia. It trials an innovative, market-oriented approach to financing and implementing
measures to reduce emissions from deforestation and forest degradation in Central Kalimantan,
Indonesia. Australia has committed $30 million to establish the KFCP.
The KFCP is part of Australia's
International Forest Carbon Initiative (IFCI)

The UN-REDD Programme is the United Nations
collaborative initiative on Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation
(REDD) in developing countries. The Programme was launched in 2008 and builds on the
convening role and technical expertise of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United
Nations (FAO), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the United Nations
Environment Programme (UNEP). The UN-REDD Programme supports nationally-led REDD+ processes
and promotes the informed and meaningful involvement of all stakeholders, including
Indigenous Peoples and other forest-dependent communities, in national and international
REDD+ implementation.
Support to Partner CountriesThe Programme currently supports 44
partner countries spanning Africa, Asia-Pacific and Latin America, of which 16 are receiving
support to National Programme activities. These 16 countries are: Bolivia, Cambodia,
Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Ecuador, Indonesia, Nigeria, Panama, Papua New
Guinea, Paraguay, the Philippines, Republic of Congo, Solomon Islands, Sri Lanka, Tanzania,
Viet Nam and Zambia. To-date, the UN-REDD Programme's Policy Board has
approved a total of US$67.3 million for National Programmes in these 16 partner countries.
These funds help to support the development and implementation of national REDD+ strategies.
UN-REDD Programme countries not receiving direct support to National Programmes engage with
the Programme in a number of ways, including as observers to the Programme's Policy
Board, and through participation in regional workshops and knowledge sharing, facilitated by
the Programme's interactive online workspace. These countries are: Argentina,
Bangladesh, Benin, Bhutan, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica,
Ethiopia, Gabon, Ghana, Guatemala, Guyana, Honduras, Ivory Coast, Kenya, Malaysia, Mexico,
Mongolia, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Peru, South Sudan, Sudan, Suriname and Uganda.

Global Support to National REDD+ ActionsIn addition to supporting
partner countries through UN-REDD National Programmes, the UN-REDD Programme also provides
complementary support to countries through common approaches, analyses, methodologies, tools,
data and best practices developed through the UN-REDD Global Programme. The UN-REDD Global
Programme work is divided in the following six integrated work areas, designed to support
country actions on REDD+:

Each season we face the same quandary: what do we really want to wear? The question doesn't call for much soul searching, but the difficulty of answering said query is nothing to scoff at. After all, there are approximately 404 new trends to try right now, but who has the time-not to mention energy, resources, and budgetary flexibility-to experiment with even a fraction of those alternate fashion identities? Rather than suggesting a manic course of action (buy everything!) or scaring ourselves into an inert state (buy nothing!), we decided to spend some time crafting a spot-on shopping strategy for spring's key pieces. Today's roundup is the result of these labors and just what you need to ease into a stylish new season. We've spotlighted our favorite iteration of each piece, as you've no doubt surmised, but feel free to tailor the categories to your own personal taste too!
1. Boudoir Top / Topshop Paisley Lace Bralet ($40) in Grey
Whether it's worn on its own, underneath something sheer, or as an accent piece over a more substantial top or frock, one thing's for certain: lingerie is front and center this season. Of course, you can't just reveal any old ratty bra or step out in a grungy slip-this trend calls for a little forethought. Well consider yourself prepared with this demure bralet from Topshop: it's a sweet piece that would look darling peeking out under a prim button-up or even worn over a t-shirt à la Erin Wasson.
2. Khaki Jacket / Theory Nani Jacket ($325)
The spring runways were awash in classic trench coats and loads of utilitarian, military-influenced item. This beyond-cute linen jacket from Theory offers the perfect blend of these two important looks and is sure to become your favorite lightweight outerwear option. The oversized collar and abbreviated cut are stylishly subtle while the cool details, like big horn buttons and cropped buckle-adorned sleeves, elevate the whole piece. All in all, it's one of the best buys you could make this season!
3. Cat-Eye Sunglasses / Tom Ford Eyewear Nikita Sunglasses ($240) in Tortoise
Around this time last year, the frames of choice for our favorite tastemakers were circular sunglasses-but that was then and this is now! Currently the shape to seek out is something a bit sleeker: the cat-eye. Wild versions turned up on the runways of Luella, Miu Miu, and Giles Deacon, but we think you'll find this tortoise style from Tom Ford is a bit more wearable and wonderful too. Sure, the price is a bit steep, but considering that sunglasses are such important accessories, we think investing in a well made, marvelously on-trend pair is a sound style plan.
4. Mid Blue Denim / Les Halles The Denning Jean ($115, 646.872.4458)
When it comes to denim for the season, we're personally looking to the slightly-seventies mid-blue hues spotted at Chloe and Stella McCartney for fashion guidance. Accordingly, we were beyond buzzed when we spotted this soft shade from Les Halles. In addition to the great wash, we love the Denning style; it's soft, stretchy, and super slim, but still super flattering. Though this exact pair isn't available online yet, you can call and place your order today!
5. Opening Ceremony Sunburst Lace-Up Wedge ($510) in Leopard
The moment Alexander Wang's S/S 10 show started we knew it: animal-print accessories were officially a must-buy! Happily we weren't the only ones feeling a little kittenish, as these amazing wedges from Opening Ceremony attest. The cut-outs, lace-up front, and peep-toe wedge make the shoe interesting enough, but then the fact that it's enrobed in leopard? Good lord, we can't keep from drooling!
6. Structured Satchel / Mulberry The Alexa Bag ($1150) in Oak
If bag shopping is a bit like dating-you flirt with one style today, have a torrid affair with another type tomorrow-we're ready to settle down. There's a new tote that's so desirable, you'll want to commit forever: Mulberry's Alexa bag. Inspired by the one and only Alexa Chung, this small satchel is a cross between the brand's beloved Bayswater style and their men's briefcase. It's a bit schoolgirl-ish and super chic, but what can we say, we're in love!
7. Fuchsia Lipstick / Revlon ColorBurst Lipstick ($9) in Fuchsia
As you no-doubt know, we're never ones to shy away from a bold lip. But right now the color we're craving is a bit more vivid than the blood-orange reds and sweet peach tones we've been wearing. Maybe it's a reaction to all the nude, khaki, and olive green colors that are so popular this season, but the shade we crave is boldly and unapologetically pink. Our source for the most fabulous fuchsia lips is super affordable and easily accessible to boot: Revlon's new ColorBurst Lipstick. Having tried all the colors (we're carrying at least three at any given moment), we can swear that the formula is fabulous and the pigment is true. Try it today and we promise you'll have a new beauty crush too!
8. Little White Dress / Calvin Klein Collection Needle Punched Detail Dress ($2495, 212.292.9000)
You undoubtedly have a LBD in your closet, but we want to make sure you have the warm-weather equivalent of this wardrobe essential-the LWD. The little white dress was a major item on the runways and showed up everywhere from Calvin Klein Collection (how beautiful is their version?) to Givenchy and back, so make sure you sleuth out the best version for you now before they all get snapped up. Of course, not everyone wants to save up for a runway frock, so we also found a few alts for your shopping pleasure, like IRO's Adate Dress ($280), Supertrash's Silk and Lace Tiered Dress ($128) or Preen Line's Rib Dress ($297). The first is minimalist, the second romantic, and the third coolly distressed: one is sure to catch your eye!
9. Leather Shorts / Joie Dempsey Leather Shorts ($378)
Of the many, many, many leather items out there this season, we think you should try the most unexpected option: shorts. A wide-leg style like Joie's Dempsey Leather Shorts is especially awesome: they're very Lauren Bacall-meets-Mad Max and the combo of tailoring and toughness is quite seductive. Best of all, they're actually quite versatile: pair them with a simple striped tee and neutral flat sandals for the weekend, a delicate white blouse and a cropped blazer for the (creative) office, or with statement heels or booties and a semi-sheer top for a night out with your friends. We're sure you'll find a way to wear them well!

|Boone Denies ETJ Picks, Suit Threatened
|Written by Steve Frank
|Wednesday, 25 September 2013 11:19
There's another battle brewing between the Watauga County Commission and the Town of Boone, and again, it is over appointments to the Boone Planning Board from the extraterritorial jurisdiction district just outside the town limits. In a letter dated Monday, Town Manager Greg Young
informed the county of the appointments of Dale Greene and Frank Bolick would not be seated on the board, and that the appointment made before the last two, Jon Tate, may be voided, saying he was "inadvertently" sworn in. Young's letter mentions 2011 amendments to the code, but does not specify what is causing the town to again take this action. County Commission chair Nathan Miller this morning said that Greene and Bolick were suggested by the town, and that the town is in violation of its own ordinance, "The town of Boone, once again, fails to follow their own ordinances, not only have they failed to follow their own ordinance, but their action oversteps the statutory authority granted them by the North Carolina Legislature. Their failure to seat these ETJ members hurts all the members of the ETJ, and the county will defend our ETJ appointments. The people who live in the ETJ, the only voice they have is through the county commissioners and their appointments. And the town, once again denying appointments, is not only illegal but the county is not going to stand by and let that happen." Miller said that their three options are to hold a public hear, which could take a month, meet with the Town, which could take 3 to 4 months, or take legal action, "The other option is to file a lawsuit and get an injunction seating those members." Miller said the town had six openings on the board, and the county's effort to fill half is now back to the drawing board—or the courtroom.

Hello, cupcakers and fellow candy lovers. We have a special treat today! Alan Richardson and Karen Tack, the folks who write the Hello, Cupcake! books are guest blogging about their latest DIY Halloween cupcakes.
Candy.com met Alan and Karen at the 2012 Sweets & Snacks show in Chicago, and saw first-hand how they cleverly use candy and snacks to create cupcakes with serious "Wow!" power. The duo recently created a "cupcaking" app that makes cupcaking with candy even more fun and easy …
Fresh from the Hello Cupcake! app are Jack-O-Lantern cupcakes. Here's the how-to from Alan and Karen …
We used Tootsie Rolls and Laffy Taffy for the glowing yellow eyes, and a Honey Twist Pretzel for the stem. But the beauty of being a Candy Detective is that you could just as easily use any chocolate or yellow taffy for the eyes, and a bread stick, a Kit Kat, or another brown candy or snack for the stem.
To get started, here's what you'll need to make one pumpkin patch with six jumbo cupcakes …
- 6 jumbo cupcakes baked in orange liners
- 1 can (16 ounces) vanilla frosting
- ½ teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder (Hershey's)
- Yellow and red food coloring
- 16 chocolate chews (Tootsie Rolls)
- 16 yellow fruit chews (Tootsie Fruit Rolls, Starburst, Laffy Taffy)
- 3 wheat twist pretzels (Rold Gold)
Tint the vanilla frosting deep orange with the cocoa powder, and yellow and red food coloring.
Divide the frosting and spoon it into two resealable freezer-grade storage bags. Press out the excess air, and seal.
Squeegee the frosting to the corner.
Snip a ¼-inch corner from the bags.
Soften several chocolate chews at a time (you can put them in the microwave for 2 to 3 seconds if needed). Flatten the chews slightly. Press several chews together and roll out on a piece of wax paper to a ⅛-inch thickness.
Next, you'll need to download a printable version of the Jack O'Lantern template.
Using the outer line of the templates, cut out chocolate shapes using a small paring knife or scissors. Reheat and re-roll the scraps as necessary to make all of the shapes.
Trim templates down to the inner line and repeat with the yellow fruit chews.
Place the yellow pieces on top of the chocolate pieces to make the eyes, mouths, and noses; set aside on wax paper.
Make enough face parts for all of your cupcakes, you can even create your own.
Starting at the top of a cupcake, pipe a thick line of frosting down the center.
To make the pumpkin's ribs, pipe vertical lines on either side of the center line, tapering them slightly at the top and bottom. Repeat with the remaining cupcakes.
For the stems, break the wheat twist pretzels in half crosswise. Insert the broken ends into the top of the cupcakes.
Arrange the face parts on top of the cupcakes.
Repeat with the remaining cupcakes and faces.
Have a Bootiful Halloween!

Rated 5 out of 5Â by BJ great candy!!! LOVE THE STOREKKEEPERS SURPRISE CANDY!!!NICE ASSORTMENT OF SOME OF MY FAVORITES. May 15, 2015
Rated 1 out of 5Â by Sweet Sue So disappointed I was so looking forward to 2 pounds of mixed candy that would remind me of going to the candy store as a child with a nickel and coming home with a whole bag of candy. I had looked at the catalog and there were so many kinds of candy from my childhood that I wanted to try, this seemed like the perfect solution. I counted approximately 27 different kinds of wrapped candy in your catalog, I was expecting at least 15-20 different kinds in the package. I got 117 pieces of candy bit only 8 different kinds including 31 chocolate mints, 20 Mary Jane's, 20 bulls eyes, and 21 Bit O Honey's. I could easily buy these four candies at my local store for considerably less money. The other 25 pieces in my bags were 10 honey, 6 kits, 8 Italian, and one Walnetto. I expected my surprise to be many different delights from the childhood but instead my surprise was disappointment at the lack of variety. I won't be buying this again. February 23, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5Â by mmw Retro Candy! I surprised my siblings to a Christmas from our past by setting up our Grandmother's old tinsel tree and color wheel, our mother's old nativity scene and our old stockings, old time retro toys and your old time candy. I thought you did a wonderful job picking out a variety of old candy for us. It was wonderful! My siblings LOVED the idea and I was able to purchase many ideas from your site. Thanks for the memories!!! January 11, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5Â by Theresa in NY Not evenly distributed This was a good purchase for the holiday season. The only suggestion I have would be to evenly distribute the candies. I had too many hard candies and not enough Mary Janes, Bit O' Honey, Walnettos, etc. January 10, 2015

Winemaker: Late summer heat adds flavorful depth to vintage
LORANE, Ore. - Winemakers welcome the late summer blast of heat, the winemaker at Sweet Cheeks winery said Wednesday.
Days in the 90s and 80s help develop the sugars in the grapes.
That can give the wine a depth it might otherwise lack in a crop harvested after an abnormally cool fall.
And it's not just wine that benefits. While you may be sweating the heat, local plant life is loving it.
Jared Henderson, owner and manager of Thistledown farm, says the late heat has been extremely beneficial for most crops.
"They're doing great," says Jared. "The quality is very high."
Things that are flourishing at Henderson's farm: pumpkins, tomatoes, corn, and even flowers.
But not everything deals well with heat.
"It lead to what I felt was an earlier than normal demise to some of the berries," laments Henderson.
"Strawberries, for example, they like it to be dry, but temperatures between 60 and 70 degrees. They don't like it too hot."
But not every small, sweet crop is suffering.
SweetCheeks vineyard manager Amanda Cihlar says the warmer the weather, the better the wine.
"With hotter weather, the acidity decreases, and you get more phenolics which gives the grapes more flavor and aromas, and usually makes for a better wine. If you get more rain towards harvest time, you can get an increased acidity, which can mask some of the flavors."
The heat also helps to dry out the wine crop, which prevents botrytis.
Botrytis, also known as noble rot, is a fungus that dehydrates grapes, which will concentrate the sugars for a sweet wine.
But if you're not trying to make a dessert wine, botrytis can be extremely detrimental to a wine crop, and Cihlar says the heat is helping to keep the fungus at bay.
On top of the agricultural benefits, Henderson says the heat also has an aesthetic advantage.
"We pick up a lot of pumpkins off the ground, and if it's dry the dirt doesn't stick to them too bad and they're really clean and it just makes things a lot easier."
An added bonus: Henderson says the heat brings people out and about, and into his business.
"When it's hot, people want to be doing something, and sometimes that brings them here," he said. "It definitely helps with business. I want it to stay sunny for as long as possible."

The ice princess has found her prince!
Figure skater Michelle Kwan, 32, married Clay Pell, 31 at the First Unitarian Church of Providence, Rhode Island on Saturday.
The bride wore a strapless gown by Vera Wang, who designed many of her skating costumes.
Pell, a JAG and lieutenant in the Coast Guard, wore a dark navy dress uniform.
Guests included many former skating champions, including Brian Boitano, Dorothy Hamill and Dick Button. Carter Oosterhouse and Amy Smart were also in attendance.
Kwan is the most decorated figure skater in U.S. history, with nine national titles, five world titles, and two Olympic medals (silver in 1998, bronze in 2002).
Since retiring from amateur skating, Kwan has become a senior advisor for public diplomacy and public affairs. Her husband works in the White House as a director for strategic planning on the National Security staff. Congratulations to the newlyweds!

Christianity is At Best Only Possibly True
There are always some anomalies, or unsolved mysteries, that have not yet been solved when we hold certain things to be true. When it comes to these anomalies we place them on the back-burner and hope future discoveries or evidence will surface to help us solve them. And we can legitimately try to offer possible scenarios for why we think these anomalies can be solved. These possibilities are not considered probably true, but only possibly true. In the meantime we interpret them in light of a greater set of background ideas we hold to be probably true.
My claim is that in order to maintain and defend Christianity the Christian must resort to offering possible scenarios at almost every turn. My claim is that the more they are forced to resort to these possible scenarios then the less likely their background knowledge is true which forms the backdrop to legitimately use these possible scenarios in the first place.
This is the whole reason for my Reality Check posts. At almost every turn the Christian faith is based on possibilities. So Christianity can only at best be shown to be possibly true. There is no probability to their background knowledge at all, so resorting to possible scenarios is all they have. Since that is clear to demonstration the Christian faith is only possibly true, not probably true. And who in their right mind would commit their whole life to a possibility? No me. I don't think any knowledgeable person would.
