I'm new to light/ultralight backpacking (and backpacking in general, really). I'm looking to put together my first set of gear and trying to keep my cost down.The hardest decision is choosing a bag. I'm ultra-paranoid about water (bad experiences with gear in the army) and I live in the pacific northwest; planning to do most of my hiking in the cool, humid, wet Cascades. I was thinking synthetic due to cost and weather/inexperience. I'd like to keep weight down as low as possible (2 lbs-ish), but still get as close to 3 seasons as I can.I was thinking about the marmot pounder plus, but the more I read about bags, the more overwhelmed I feel. I would appreciate any and all feedback regarding this decision. As I said before, cost is a big consideration.Thanks in advance from the newbie!
I should also have mentioned that I'm shooting for the $200-ish mark on the price range. Lower if at all possible.
I haven't used this product, but you might want to check out the Ray Jardine quilt kit. It is $75.00 and has an alpine upgrade for $10. If you have a mom, aunt, or grandma nearby, maybe she can do whatever sewing is needed.http://www.rayjardine.comSeriously consider a quilt. For lightweight budget shelter, consider Ozark Trail Jr. Dome if you are 6 ft or under. It's $20 at WalMart and weighs about two pounds. Just make sure you seal all the seams.As a newbie myself, I found the podcasts at practicalbacking.com to be very helpful.
I own a North Face Cat's Meow(20 degrees). It's closer to the 2.5-3 pound range, but it packs up decently for synthetic.The 20 rating is a bit generous, but I have used it down to the low 20's wearing fleece, a hat, and gloves and not frozen.Mine has been used a lot and is several years old and is still in good condition, so they seem to hold up well.REI has the regular length one up for $115.99 right now.
Another vote here for the cats meow. I think it is a great bag at a great price.Stuffs pretty small for a synthetic too.
That's what my wife and I have. They do pack down small. We got each of ours for right at $100 on sale a year or two ago.I'm in your area, so if you'd like to check one out sometime just let me know.

I'd still go with down. My wife has a Cat's Meow and compared to my down bag (which admittedly is just a 32F bag but it is only 600 FP) is it huge. You have to work pretty darn hard just to get it in it's large stuff sack.An comparable 800 fill power down bag is going to pack so much smaller, which really is a big deal. If you going to buy a small 2500-3000 in3 pack then a bag like this is going to take up a ton of it's volume.Keeping a down bag dry isn't that hard. Keep it in a waterproof stuff sack so you know it's safe while hiking, and then only take it out once your tent is set up safely. Unless your tent sucks, you're going to be fine. When I went down (about 5 years ago) all my friends though getting wet was a huge problem but I've camped in rain, snow etc and it's never been as issue. I don't even keep it in a waterproof sack (although I should).I would go with a +800 fill down bag. A nice Mountain Hardware 20F Phantom bag sold on the classifieds here a couple days ago for $175. Just buy a used one. eBay is also a good spot.

Kenneth,Two cents worth of ideas...You mention being paranoid about down because you've had bad experiences with wet sleeping bags in the past. When choosing down vs synthetic, you ought to consider what sort of shelter you will choose when you migrate to an overall lighter system. If you choose a tarp/bivy arrangement, then being nervous about down makes sense, as it requires skill and time to set up a tarp to keep you dry in a serious storm. On the other hand, if you are going to have a rock-solid tent, then you can store your sleeping bag in a good plastic bag (trash compactor bags are thick and durable) when it's in your pack, count on a waterproof tent, and so down might be more viable. In terms of saving $$, the "swap gear" section of this forum is quite active, and there are usually gear addicts who buy every new thing (I've been guilty) and occasionally need to shed stuff in order to feed the habit. You might want to post a Want-To-Guy note on that forum.Amy L.
I love down bags....but I will buck the trend slightly here. I spent 5 days recently with a down bag that never got directly wet. However, it rained, rained, and then rained some more. By the 4th night my bag had lost considerable loft due to the general humidity. The accumulation of moisture was significant.So the question is - do you think you will be trekking in high humidity areas? If yes and as a 'newbie,' I think the Pounder Plus would be an excellent choice. As you get more familiar and comfortable with your sleep system and managing moisture then you can get an additional down bag.My 2 cents.
Kenneth,You probably have more autonomy now than in the army. Maybe you can make choices that will keep your gear dry if you are on your own.If you get down and decide the climate is too wet, it should hold some re-sale value. Or you can make it into a great pillow that will go decades.
I'm a newbie too and settled on a Montbell Super Stretch Burrow Bag #4 for $135, 2 lbs 5oz. I'm very happy with the quality, price, the 35 degree rating seems dead on. I figure once I get more experienced, I'll tryout the Jardine quilt, then if that goes well, save up for my custom made nunatek.
Thank you all for your feedback on a bag... I ended up purchasing a Marmot Pounder Plus.The cold, wet Fall and Spring in the Cascade mountains, my relative inexperience, and cost were the main driving factors in my decision.I'm very satisfied with the bag so far. I would rate the bag at about 35 degrees when combined with clothing. I guess I'm a cold sleeper. Very comfortable bag. The stuff sack that comes with the bag doesn't compress the bag much, but I'm not short on pack space so far.As my experience grows, I will probably move to a down quilt or bag.
I'd personally go with down. It's not that hard to keep them dry.

A four-year letterwinner on the mens basketball team, Tanner Bronson was best known for his underdog story at Wisconsin. Bronson began his tenure with the team as a student manager, but earned a roster spot as a walk-on for his final four years (2005-08) in Madison. A Kohl Center crowd favorite, Bronson appeared in 39 games for the Badgers, capping his career with a Big Ten title as a senior in 2008. Now you can find him answering to the name Coach Bronson as a member of the Sioux Falls Sky Force coaching staff of the NBA-Development League.
When was the last time you were in MadisonBRONSON: I havent been back in about nine months since I moved away. I left in the fall for my job in South Dakota and havent had a chance to get back.
When is the next time you are planning on returning to MadisonBRONSON: I think Im probably going to come back in July to play in Coach Ryans `Love of the Game golf tournament and see all my former teammates.
What do you miss most about MadisonBRONSON: I think just being around my teammates. We had great chemistry on the team and all of those guys are my best friends. A lot of them are still in Madison and I think I just miss being around the guys and hanging out. I miss the atmosphere of the city of Madison.
What is your greatest memory as a member of the Badger mens basketball teamBRONSON: For me it was undoubtedly senior night against Penn State when we got to clinch the Big Ten title. It had been a goal for every one of the seniors and it was our final opportunity. To do it at home, in front of our fans and family.
That and hitting a 35-foot 3-pointer in that game, huhBRONSON: Ha ha yeah, exactly. It was a just great time. We could celebrate with all of our friends and family and teammates, who are pretty much your best friends. So that was really cool for me.
Where are you working these daysBRONSON: Im currently on the coaching staff for the Sioux Falls Sky Force of the NBDL. Its a little different here than the college game. Its full of guys who are trying to make it to the NBA. Ive been doing everything from working out guys every day, to helping with practice, helping get the game-plan prepared and scouting. Thats pretty much what Ive been doing for the past year.
Have you always wanted to get into coachingBRONSON: Ive wanted to get into coaching for a while. I always felt that I thought about the game like a coach. I just wanted to try it and see if I could succeed. Obviously its a tough profession. Its not easy to keep your position, you have to be very successful and there is a lot of competition for jobs. For me I just thought I had a pretty good coachs mind and I wanted to see if that was the case.
What does next year hold for youBRONSON: It looks like Ill be here for another year working as an assistant again. Last year was obviously really new to me. I learned a lot and this year I fell like Ill be more prepared and able to do some different things that maybe last year I wasnt ready for.
What do you think is the biggest difference between pro and college basketballBRONSON: I think the biggest difference is that everybody is bigger, faster, stronger at this level. There is also more spacing on the floor and its easier to see peoples weaknesses in the pro game, I think. With the spacing and the deeper 3-point line and things like that.
Do you get and chance to play with the team ever or are you mostly holding the clipboard and coachingBRONSON: Im mostly holding the clipboard, but there are times. In our league you can only hold 10 guys, so if a player gets injured we need someone to fill in. We need to have 10 to practice, so at times I get to lace it up which feels good. Ive been a basketball player my whole life, so its fun to get back and play a little bit.
Did you have any other Big Ten players on your roster this season
BRONSON: We had Justin Johnson who played at Iowa and also Frank Williams, from Illinois.
What was it like coaching former teammate Greg Stiemsma for one game this seasonBRONSON: Greg and I have a really good relationship and it was fun I think for both of us having him on the team and getting a look. It was good experience for Greg because there are a lot of NBA guys that watch the D-League. I think thats a potential goal for him. There wasnt much difference in our relationship from being teammates or player-coach. Were still friends and we both just want whats best for each other. It was a lot of fun for both of us.

It is further the intent and purpose of this chapter that whenever any of the articles taxed under this chapter is given away for advertising or any other purpose, it shall be taxed in the same manner as if it were sold, used, consumed, handled, possessed, or distributed in this state. (2) It is also the intent and purpose of this chapter that the tax shall be imposed at the time and place of the first taxable event and upon the first taxable person within this state. Any person whose activities would otherwise require payment of the tax imposed by subsection (1) of this section but who is exempt from the tax nevertheless has a precollection obligation for the tax that must be imposed on the first taxable event within this state. A precollection obligation may not be imposed upon a person exempt from the tax who sells, distributes, or transfers possession of cigarettes to another person who, by law, is exempt from the tax imposed by this chapter or upon whom the obligation for collection of the tax may not be imposed. Failure to pay the tax with respect to a taxable event shall not prevent tax liability from arising by reason of a subsequent taxable event. (3) In the event of an increase in the rate of the tax imposed under this chapter, it is the intent of the legislature that the first person who sells, uses, consumes, handles, possesses, or distributes previously taxed articles after the effective date of the rate increase shall be liable for the additional tax, or its precollection obligation as required by this chapter, represented by the rate increase. The failure to pay the additional tax with respect to the first taxable event after the effective date of a rate increase shall not prevent tax liability for the additional tax from arising from a subsequent taxable event.

The legislature finds that applicable collection and enforcement measures under this chapter are reasonably necessary to prevent fraudulent transactions and place a minimal burden on the Indian tribal organization, pursuant to the United States supreme court's decision in Washington v.

July 25: 4 Women Who Made a Difference
- July 25, 2011 |
- 7:00 am |
- Categories: Biology, Health and Medicine, Space Exploration
July 25: In science and technology, spheres of society where women are woefully underrepresented, this day in history offers a bountiful exception. Here are the milestones:
- 1865: "James Barry," the first woman physician in modern times, dies. She was compelled to disguise herself as a man in order to practice her profession.
- 1920: Rosalind Franklin, the unheralded co-discoverer of DNA, is born.
- 1978: Louise Joy Brown, the world's first test-tube baby, is born.
- 1984: Cosmonaut Svetlana Savitskaya becomes the first woman to walk in space.
James Barry
Barry, whose actual identity remains unknown, was born somewhere around 1795. After finishing medical school (at the age of 13, and already in disguise), "James Barry" waited a few years before joining the British army in 1813, where "he" served with distinction in a number of colonial postings, including India, South Africa and Canada.
While in South Africa, Barry became the first doctor-surgeon in the British Empire to perform a Cesarean section in which both the mother and child survived. Prior to that, C-sections were generally performed only when the mother was dead or dying.
Barry rose to the rank of inspector general in the army, but also worked with the Royal Navy, while stationed in Malta and Corfu, to improve the harsh conditions for sailors at sea.
It wasn't until Barry died in 1865 that it was discovered at the autopsy that "he" was really a "she." (Or, perhaps was intersexed with mixed male and female physiology.)
Somehow, Barry had managed to conceal her actual sex (and to give birth to a child herself) for more than 40 years. She was also the first woman to receive a medical degree, although the dons had no idea they were handing their sheepskin to a woman.
The first woman to earn a medical degree when her sex was known was Elizabeth Blackwell, who received her diploma in 1849.1
Rosalind Franklin
In April 1962, three men — James Watson, Francis Crick and Maurice Wilkins — shared the Nobel Prize for their discovery a decade earlier of the structure of DNA. Rosalind Franklin, a chemist whose X-ray diffusion photographs of DNA molecules showed their essential structure and paved the way for the trio's work, received nothing.
The extent to which Franklin was dismissed by her peers varies in the telling, although it was real enough: In his memoir, Watson wrote unflatteringly of her and downplayed her role in the discovery.
Wilkins, a colleague of Franklin's who disliked her feminist attitudes, was equally critical. He'd also provided Watson, without Franklin's knowledge, with her key photograph, which showed — for the first time — the double-helix shape that underlies the structure of DNA.
The photograph caused Watson to remark later: "The instant I saw the picture, my mouth fell open and my pulse began to race."
Crick was far more gracious, crediting Franklin with having done "the key experimental work." He also said that Franklin's early critique of their theoretical work caused them to rethink things, helping to set them on the right path.
A 2002 biography — Rosalind Franklin: The Dark Lady of DNA, by Brenda Maddox — paints Franklin neither as a feminist hero nor a spurned woman. Her role in helping to solve the mystery of DNA is unquestioned, and her place in science history is secure.
Unhappily, Franklin died of cancer in 1958, only 37 years old. This has been cited as the reason she was not included with the others: The Nobel Prize is not awarded posthumously.

proposed bill
in the Texas legislature known as the "Topless Tax" would tax patrons a $5 cover charge to enter strip clubs. The cover charge would then go directly into sexual-assault prevention and counseling services. This makes a certain amount of sense to me. Just as sin taxes on cigarettes end up funding everything from health care programs to education spending, taxing strip-club patrons to support worthy state mandates like assault prevention has a certain symmetry to it. Taxing the sex trade is as natural as taxing casinos and booze. The only reason it is controversial is that people don't like to think about sex taxes funding their elementary schools (which was incorporated in an earlier incarnation of the Texas bill). I say, get over it. In fact, hopefully the Texas bill will be successful enough to inspire California, which needs a major overhaul of its sex-trade industry. Putting taxes on pornography, for example, could ensure that performers are tested for STDs before every film, use safety precautions during filmed sex, and ensure that women in pornography get organized and demand royalties for their work (currently men reap the vast majority of the billions of dollars in the pornography industry literally off the backs of women). The taxes would lower STD rates, health care costs, and regulate an out-of-control industry that no one wants to talk about. I nominate
Jenna Jameson
to oversee the spending of the tax revenue. Or maybe I'm just feeling all sentimental because it's Valentine's Day. --

BRANTINGHAM When the drive-in season closed last August, Michael D. Dekin speculated it would be end credits for the 61-year-old Valley Brook Drive-In.
But the 49-year-old owner now says the theater will open in May and the switch from 35-millimeter film to digital could come as soon as the end of June.
Its going to happen soon, Mr. Dekin said. Well open with 35 millimeter and then switch over. Were finalizing everything now.
In the past few years, the push for movie theaters and drive-ins to go digital has put a financial burden on many theater operations. Owners struggle with breaking the bank to fund the new technology or closing down. Last summer, Mr. Dekin was certain he would not be able to produce the funds initially set at about $60,000 but recently dropped to $55,000. Ultimately, it will take most of his retirement fund and a partial revolving loan through Snow Belt Housing Co. Inc. to see the process to completion.
Through Snow Belt Housing, it looks like were definitely going digital around the beginning of July, end June, Mr. Dekin said. Ultimately he expects to pay $42,000 out of his own pocket. But it is something hes more than willing to do.
My grandparents opened the drive-in Memorial weekend 1952, said Mr. Dekin, who took over operation of the drive-in with his mother and sister in 1991. He now is its sole owner.
That first night, Here Comes the Groom and Gene Autry and the Mountaineers played for a 60-cent admission. The price has gone up since then, but not by much. From $5 per adult, spectators can anticipate a $1 price hike when the drive-in opens either Friday, May 16, or Memorial Day weekend. It will be the first time the price has changed in 12 years. Admission will cost $6 for adults, $2 for children 7 to 11 and free for children 6 and younger.
Despite the expense, Mr. Dekin said, there are many benefits to going digital. The average movie consists of five to eight reels shipped for $80 to $100 in two boxes. Each box weighs about 65 pounds. Now he will simply receive a digital version that can be downloaded into the computer.
Mr. Dekin said he has an idea of which films will play opening night, but he cannot confirm until everything is finalized.
I might not get all the movies I want, but it will be enough to survive the summer, he said.
Additional details, as they become available, will be made on the drive-ins Facebook page under Valley Brook Drive-In. The theater is at Burdicks Crossing Road and Route 12. The theater has one screen and can accommodate 400 cars.

The 7 Worst Asian-American Stereotypes
Need I mention William Hung?
November 24, 2012 - 7:00 am
5. An Asian Is A Doctor, But Definitely Not a Lawyer, or Indian Chief.
The 1945 #1 hit "Doctor, Lawyer, Indian Chief" offers the memorable lyrics, "There's a doctor livin' in your town / There's a lawyer and an Indian, too / And neither doctor, lawyer nor Indian chief / Could love you any more than I do."
Let's set aside the fact that "Indian" here is probably a false name resulting from Christopher Columbus's massive navigational error — discovering the "New World" by accident on the way to Asia. But let's discuss this lyrics, pretending that "Indian" here means "from India."
The stereotype at issue is that Indians can be and are doctors, shouldn't or can't be lawyers, and will probably face the bamboo ceiling before they can ever rise to the rank of "Indian chief" executive officer. In The Big Bang Theory, the character Raj Koothrappali is an astrophysicist. In ER, Parminder Nagra was cast as a doctor. Is art imitating life? Asian-Americans constitute 9% of scientists and engineers in the United States while only composing 3% of the overall population. Many Asians learn that a liberal arts degree is in fact "B.S." The B.S., the bachelor of science degree, may be more highly valued by Asian parents.
Interestingly enough, while a significant proportion — 26% — of engineering faculty tend to be Asians, a very small proportion of Asians — a mere 3% — teach psychology. If you didn't already think that your IT support technician is (or should be) an Asian, commercials by Staples, CVS, Best Buy, IBM, and others perpetuate the stereotypical Asian technological expert. If their child isn't aiming to "do her medicine" or "do his engineering," the Asian parents stereotypically worry.

As Percy Harvin headed west to join his new team in Seattle, he left behind an unfavorable national report about his opinion of Vikings quarterback Christian Ponder and the role it played in Minnesota trading the receiver.
But as far as Ponder is concerned, that opinion no longer matters.
The quarterback told the Pioneer Press on Tuesday, March 12, that Harvin never directly told him he was unhappy with his play, adding he thought he had a "good relationship" with the receiver. Ponder said he hadn't thought much about the idea that Harvin was critical of him until Yahoo Sports reported Monday that Harvin's complaints about the quarterback were a main reason why the Vikings traded him.
"The thing is, there's no quote strictly from Percy that he was the one saying it," Ponder said. "I haven't put too much thought into it. If that was his opinion, that's unfortunate. But he's a Seahawk now, so it doesn't really matter."
Harvin went home to Florida once the Vikings placed him on injured reserve in December, and Ponder said he hadn't spoken to the receiver since then.
When Harvin was introduced in Seattle on Tuesday, he thanked the Vikings for a "good" four years, saying he enjoyed playing with Adrian Peterson and Brett Favre. He also said he was looking forward to playing with an "up-and-coming" quarterback in Seattle's Russell Wilson, who has one fewer NFL season than Ponder does.
But Harvin declined comment when asked about reports his lack of confidence in Ponder was why the Vikings traded him.
As Ponder heads into his third NFL season, though, the organization appears firmly in his corner.
General manager Rick Spielman and coach Leslie Frazier have praised the way the quarterback played in the team's final four regular-season games. Frazier said at the NFL scouting combine that the Vikings would only be looking for a backup quarterback who understood that Ponder was the starter, adding that "as long as Christian keeps improving, we feel like we've got what we need to bring a championship to Minnesota."
And rather than keeping Harvin, the Vikings will rebuild a group of receivers for Ponder.
"Hopefully we can find some guys to come in and perform, whether that's in the draft or through free agency," Ponder said. "I fully trust what Rick Spielman and coach Frazier are doing. They're putting the team first."
Ponder, who has been working out at the Athletes' Performance Institute in Phoenix, said the elbow bruise that kept him out of the NFC wild-card game is feeling looser than it was when he started working out. He is doing quarterback drills and watching film of every throw he made during the 2012 season, looking for ways to improve his decision-making.
Of the Harvin trade, Ponder said:
"Seattle wins, because they get him. Percy wins -- he got a new contract, which was what he really has been wanting. And we win, because we get some good draft picks.
"People have their opinions. There were things I could have done better (last season). But now that he's on a different team, his opinion doesn't really mean much."

IPPR Career Event - "Diplomacy, policy and research: pathways to working in politics"
Publication date: 26 March 2013
Filmed on Wednesday, March 13, 2013
Exclusively for SPP students, we invited three high-profile practitioners to share their experiences and answer our questions about how to pursue a career path in different areas of politics.
Diplomats for hire
Publication date: 21 June 2012
What do you do as a new or unrecognized country to make your voice heard at the global stage? Without diplomatic representation, until recently your interests were likely to be overlooked by the international community. These countries can now call Carne Ross, the founder of Independent Diplomat, an NGO that advises groups excluded from international diplomacy despite their stake in global politics. He has helped countries as diverse as Somaliland, Northern Cyprus, Kosovo and Western Sahara apprehend the intricacies of diplomacy to advance their interests as a non-state entity in a system dominated by nation states. This could signal the emergence of a new kind of diplomacy.
Are charity appeals for developing countries missing the point?
Publication date: 3 April 2012
A report from the Charities Aid Foundation in 2011 found that many of the larger charities had been particularly badly hit by this recession. It is hardly surprising then that we see so many hard-hitting charity appeals in order to raise money for projects in the developing world. As a result, we're donating money to charities thinking that we're buying food, medicines and clothes for individuals in desperate situations. But I feel these appeals are missing the point. Clearly addressing these issues are important but if we really want to make a real and long-lasting difference in the developing world, we need to be raising money for two other things which are considerably less glamorous: fridges and roads.
What happened to debt forgiveness for Sudan? A cure for bad memory
Publication date: 23 March 2012
Debt relief has always been an area of Development Policy plagued by slow and very partial progress.
There are 40 countries that have been flagged by the World Bank and the IMF as heavily indebted. Most are in Sub-Sahara Africa and are highly export dependent with 50% of their population living under the $1 poverty line threshold
Can Turkey be a role model for its region?
Publication date: 23 March 2012
From the outset of the 'Arab Spring', Turkey has pursued an active foreign policy and supported a number of recent popular uprisings throughout the Arab world. Having appeared on Arab TV channels such as Al Jazeera and Al Arabiya to express Turkish support of political opposition in revolutionary Arab countries, Turkey's Foreign Minister, Ahmet Davutoglu, is now a familiar and popular figure in the Arab world. The Turkish Prime Minister, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, conducted an 'Arab Spring Tour', where he visited post-uprising Tunisia, Egypt and Libya. In his visit to the latter, Erdogan was greeted at the airport by the chairman of Libya's new National Transitional Council, Mustafa Abdul-Jalil. He has even been compared by some to the late Gamal Abdel Nasser, whose pan-Arab propaganda, amongst other factors, made him a regional hero in the 1950s.
Occupy Nigeria
Publication date: 23 March 2012
January 1st, when Nigeria's President Goodluck Jonathan announced that he was removing government subsidies of fuel costs in Nigeria, he possibly sounded the death knell of Nigeria as the world knows it. Reactions of citizens, opposition parties, experts, and labour groups were immediately loud and adverse. In the subsequent weeks, these voices of dissent only became louder and harder to ignore.
Human Trafficking and the London Games - Policy Brief
Publication date: 19 March 2012
Human trafficking in the United Kingdom is not a new security concern, however I would like to call the Mayor's attention to the possibility of a heightened threat leading up to and during the 2012 Olympic Games in London.
The EU should engage in a dialogue with Hamas
Publication date: 12 March 2012
At a time of unprecedented change in the Arab world, it is crucial for Europe to reassess its strategy in the region and engage with a variety of actors that have previously been shunned. The EU has the opportunity to become a leader in this arena, given the different priorities that others have chosen to follow. The various upheavals that have occurred in the Arab Spring have completely shuffled the cards with regards to the actors involved in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The road to peace between the Israelis and the Palestinians is linked to creating a strong and unified voice among the Palestinians and this can only be achieved through the legitimization of Hamas as a political actor.
The Food Game
Publication date: 6 March 2012
In the past three years food prices have doubled, dropped and risen again. In January 2011, food prices reached their highest price point since 1950. Food volatility is so alarming that the word 'crisis' is used to describe the jump in price of the world's three staple foods – rice, wheat and maize. While the consequences have been felt to some extent in the Western world, it has been the grim reaper of the African continent. The reasons for Africa's food vulnerability are many, but some are due to developments within the last decade, namely Africa's 'Green Revolution' and the boom of food price speculation in the commodities exchange market. Both phenomena have helped re-shape Africa's agricultural industry, but not all for the better.
Romanian Protesters Demand Drastic Changes
Publication date: 29 February 2012
The current economic slump has brought people to the streets in all four corners of the European continent. Protesters demand better salaries, lower taxes or job protection in the face of recession. However, this is not the case in Romania, where ongoing manifestations against the government were triggered not so much by recent worsening of living conditions, but by the resignation of a well-regarded state official, Raed Arafat. The so-called reform of the healthcare system leading to Arafat's reaction was, in fact, a political and economical aberration and was therefore withdrawn, at the first sign of electorate discontent, yet protests have continued and numbers are increasing.
The military side of America's "Pacific century"
Publication date: 29 February 2012
China called it "war mongering". U.S. President Obama preferred the terms "promoting a rule-based international order that ensures stability and encourages the peaceful rise of new powers." Regardless of the interpretation, the new U.S. military strategyannounced on January 5th indicates a clear shift in the American focus towards the Asia-Pacific.
Why cutting the spiral of violence in Colombia would cause negative externalities in the Andean Countries
Publication date: 27 February 2012
For several years illegal armed groups have profited from the underdeveloped conditions suffered by many in Colombia to swell the ranks of their armies. The main victims of recruitment have usually been illiterate peasants with unsatisfied needs, of whom only a small portion joined the groups voluntarily. However, as the state response has augmented, trends are changing and voluntary enrolment is now less common.
Afghanistan Ten Years On: View from the Frontline
Publication date: 27 February 2012
Phil, a Lance-Corporal in the British Army, reaches into his wallet and shows me the Taliban bullet that only narrowly missed him during his tour in Afghanistan last year. An old school friend who is now a Lance-Corporal in the British Army, Phil spent six months as a recovery mechanic embedded with the Scottish Guards just north of Lashkar Gar, Helmand province. His unit was subject to one of the fiercest tours of 2010, with nearly seven-hundred contacts with the enemy over seven months. Now, exactly one year today since his return and in the wake of the tenth anniversary of the initial US-led invasion, I ask him what he thinks about this seemingly endless conflict…

Imagine an editor where you can tweak any action ever done in the past without having to redo any subsequent steps. That's Ormr. Read more
Funding Unsuccessful
This project's funding goal was not reached on November 29, 2012.
Imagine an editor where you can tweak any action ever done in the past without having to redo any subsequent steps. That's Ormr.
About this project
Ormr is a light-weight, hardware-accelerated, affordable Windows and OS X image editor which is the first to let you seamlessly tweak and adjust any action you've performed in the past - without redoing all the subsequent work, as is often the case with all current editors. Here's how it looks:
Ormr isn't a random arrangement of letters, contrary to what one may initially think. It actually means "European dragon" in Old Norse, and we've decided to make it our mascot. It's short, it's memorable, and, admit it... dragons are cool. So Ormr is the smart dragon that's always there with you as you create, doing all the manual work behind the scenes for you whenever it's needed.
It's the first major advance in image-editing workflow since layers were first introduced in 1994, and it can save artists countless hours of manual, creativity-destroying repetitive work and frustration. Don't believe us? Try this: open your favorite editor, make a rounded-corner vector rectangle, add three roughly equally-spaced points to the bottom edge, and drag the middle one down. Congratulations, you've just made a speech balloon!
Now you realize that the corners are too large/too small/the-creative-director- comes-knocking. You need to change them. Can you do it without redoing the subsequent work? Ormr can. In Ormr, you simply click on the original rectangle operation you've performed, and drag a slider with the corner radius to adjust it. Ormr will remember that you've added points afterwards and how you manipulated them, and will redo all the work for you - instantly, and with no effort on your part. And it keeps this information neatly organized by layer, too, so it's easy to work with.
Think the above is an isolated case? Have you ever kept "spare" layers in your favorite editor, just in case you needed to go back to them? Or saved multiple copies of the same file at different design stages? The truth is, this kind of thing happens all the time, be it selection (think of sharpening only a portion of the photo, such as the eyes - and then wanting to change that region after the selection has been lost), brush strokes, creating new shapes or adjusting colors - most of these are hard or impossible to change once they've been performed.
All design is iterative, and all artists constantly go back and tweak, adjust, reposition their elements to get the look just perfectly right. And often, that's really hard to do with the existing tools.
Being, in part, artists ourselves, we want to change that. In fact, we think Ormr is a revolutionary advancement - one that has the potential to change the entire industry. By backing our project, you can be a part of this change, and make countless artists' lives easier and more creative in the process.
...Adjustment layers? Aren't they exactly it? Well, they attempt to go in the same general direction, but fall quite short of the ultimate goal. There are multiple problems with adjustment layers:
- They represent only a very limited selection of the types actions you can do; the moment you want to perform even a single action that is not on the menu, the whole workflow breaks down, and you can't go back past that step and adjust something without redoing more work manually.
- They apply to the whole image. Yes, you can add a mask to them. Manually. This becomes a huge problem if you're dealing with more than a couple layers. And if the layer shape changes? You need to redo that mask again.
- They're a hack, resulting in sub-optimal workflow. Adjustment layers were added as a half-way measure to kind of add the ability to go back and tweak things, but without actually changing the entire application to properly support this kind of idea everywhere. Since we're starting with no legacy code or legacy design, we can re-think this and create a more streamlined, efficient, and intuitive experience.
- You can't use adjustment layers on masks themselves. Ormr, meanwhile, will automatically keep all the actions you've done, per mask and per layer.
On the surface, Ormr looks and feels mostly very similar to existing image editors - anyone familiar with them would be immediately able to use it. However, if you look closer, you'll notice that each layer can be expanded to show several rows of blocks below it. These rows are every action you have ever done on this particular layer, arranged chronologically, and they are further organized by their intended target - one row each for layer mask actions, layer effects actions, and main layer image.
Any one block represents a single operation, such as creating a new rectangle or rotating the layer, and any one may be selected and its controls manipulated to change the effect of the action. As you adjust a block's settings, Ormr will update the image in real time to reflect all changed currently applied to it.
When not in use, these blocks can be hidden to maximize the space available
for layers.
In addition to allowing artists to adjust any action done in the past, Ormr has a number of other advantages over all current image editors.
Ormr has the fastest, most fluid UI you've ever used. Why? Because the core UI library it runs on is not only hardware-accelerated, but was originally optimized to run at 60 frames per second on an iPhone 3G. Putting on a modern computer makes it blazingly fast and responsive.
...And maybe iPad. Ormr is built on a set of libraries that run natively on either Windows or OS X. In fact, once you acquire Ormr, you'll be able to use it on whichever platform you choose at any time, or even simultaneously.
We realize that Ormr will never be used in a void - that's why we're making it play nice with as many other applications as possible. It'll support all key file formats right out of the box - PSD, JPG, TIFF, PNG, CR2 and CRW, NEF, and many more to allow to easily share your work with others who may not have Ormr yet.
Another reason for building Ormr is bugs - but not ours. After extensively using one of the most popular image editors available, we were driven up the wall by small, but incredibly omnipresent and madly productivity-ruining bugs in it. From inconsistent and broken layer visibility undos, over-accelerated auto-scrolling on zoomed-in images while making a selection, to not copying anything at all when you hit "Copy All" instead of "Copy" on a single layer, these are everywhere, and constantly get in your way. We strongly believe the software should get out of your way as much as possible and let you focus on the things you want to do, instead of constantly being in your face. And we'll make sure Ormr behaves like that.
We want Ormr to help as many users as possible - and that's why we'll make sure it's affordable. Unlike some editors that may cost hundreds of dollars for a single license, Ormr will cost somewhere between $25 and $40 - and users won't have to pay separately for each platform they run on, so if you want to use on both Macs and PCs, you're more than welcome to. We'll also make it DRM-free, since we want to treat our users with as much care and respect as possible.
What this means in practice is the fact that many features and behaviors in current software exist only because they have been there since the very beginning, or were added by a management committee. For example, why is there no good way to switch between all open documents in most of the popular image editors? Simply because no one had re-thought that point. We want to take all of our experience, plus your input, re-think some of these small, but fundamental behaviors, and build something that has been created with the arist first and foremost in mind - not history or management.
So, given all of the above, we think we really have a unique idea that may revolutionize the design industry and make the lives of countless artists, designers, and photographers much easier and more creative. We also have the experience and the knowledge to bring it to life.
All we're missing is your support. You can help influence the development of Ormr in a couple of ways. First, of course, is by backing us for one of our awesome reward levels. And second just by spreading the word - mention it to anyone who you think might be interested, and if the artists, designers, and photographers agree that this is what they want, we're sure Ormr will become a reality soon!
We've previously created a number of iOS and Mac games, most notably "Ultraviolet Dawn", "Train Titans" and "Violet Storm", as well as worked on professional 3D content-creation applications such as Side Effects' Houdini and Okino Computer Graphics' Polytrans. This large and varied experience gives us a unique mix of insights and skills in almost all major areas related to computer graphics, from mobile games to feature film creation tools.
Notably, we have not created our mobile games in vain: instead, we were busy building them on a common, cross-platform real-time UI library which has been in continuous refinement and testing since 2009. It is this library we are using as a foundation for Ormr.

Risks and challenges
Scope: The project is fairly large in terms of all the diverse functionality that it must deliver. We're tackling this with three key approaches: 1) Relying on our own, well-tested, existing code base to speed up development; 2) Relying on third-party libraries for some of the functionality for the same reasons; 3) Relying on the build and prototyped procedural approach, which by its reusable nature reduces the amount of work that has to be performed.
Stability: Despite the above, lots and lots of new code has been and still needs to be written, which inevitably leads to bugs. We're tackling this on several fronts: 1) By having automated, consistent test suites that get run every day to point to any newly created problems; 2) By planning to run a large alpha- and beta- testing programs with automatic error reporting built in, delivering the details of almost every crash or error to us (with the user's consent, of course).
There also used to be a risk that our unproven workflow idea may not work in practice in terms of either performance or architecture. However, we have already validated both of these with a prototype you can see in the video, which implements enough of the very basic functionality to demonstrate that the approach works, and works fast.Learn about accountability on Kickstarter
At the moment, we're not announcing official Linux support because we want to focus our limited resources on the two OSes that have the majority of the market share. However, because a large portion of Ormr is actually platform-independent, Linux support after the first version is released is actually quite possible. This is especially helped by Steam providing a Linux distribution platform for non-game apps. We just don't want to officially promise it at this time since we're not sure when or if the Linux port is going to happen. But do stay tuned for some news. :)
Ormr will run on Windows XP or newer on the Windows side, and on OS X 10.5 or newer on the Mac side. For Windows, there are no hardware requirements at this point, and for Mac, the only requirement is an Intel-based processor. Because core parts of Ormr were originally optimized for the 400Mhz iPhone 3G, there no other hardware requirements, and it runs at incredible speed on pretty much any desktop or laptop manufactured in recent memory. :)
That's a big one for us. We're building Ormr from the ground up to be as extensible as possible in every way. While we're still not sure whether these will make it into version 1.0, we will definitely have them not very long after that. In Ormr, not only will you be able to create your own effects and filters, you will be able to extend other main menu areas and even create custom tools that show up on the toolbar right next to the built-in ones. For scripting, we're currently consider Lua and/or Python as possible integration languages.
We likely won't have vector support right at launch (since we would like to focus on the core set of features that we can do right in the limited amount of time we have), but we're looking to add it as soon as we can, considering that Ormr already supports mixed raster and vector objects. Ormr 1.0 will be able to import SVG as a bitmap image, however.
Yes, it will. We've already implemented simple brushes, and while we haven't added all parts of actual pressure sensitivity yet, we've structured it from the beginning to store and use those values.

Back in January when I started the Daily Mario, it was just a Twitter feed. After a few months I leveled it up to a full-on blog, but once in a while I'll find another cool bit of ephemera and pass it along. In this way I am utterly unlike anyone else who's on Twitter. I am also a risk-taking leader because I wear clothing from the brand that said I'd be an risk-taking leader if I bought it.
So the other day I passed on a pic of a wedding dress made up on keys from an old keyboard. And not two days later, that bit of ubernerdery has been diminished down to a mere angstrom of cool by this: Kellbot and RevolvingDork's Pixelated Wedding. Heard about it from Escapist, btw.
I hope your eyes haven't eaten for a while, because they're in for a feast. One word: cakes. One more: centerpiece. The only bad part about this: take a look at them.
They're hot. Hot geeks in love. The unspoken rule that your love of Voltron/Twilight and your attractiveness to the opposite sex is dragged and dropped into the trash. Hope they stay this happy forever, since judging by the other people I know, it's rare to find someone else who's just precisely the same amount of dork you are.
PS: This is where I withhold from bragging that I am one of those lucky few. I met my wife at a Buffy the Vampire Slayer viewing party.

About Cedar Creek Estate Vineyard & Winery
From the moment you enter the driveway you will appreciate that this is one of the Gold Coast Hinterland's most charming wineries. Bring your camera and take in the wonderful scenery, as well as enjoying the taste of some of Queensland's finest wines.
The vineyard consists of three varieties including Chambourcin, Villard Blanc and Verdelho, even though relatively young vines our Chambourcin in particular is producing a fabulous Rosè. Our other varieties of wines and grapes are sourced from some of Queenslands top vineyards, which provides the winemaker with a wonderful resource when developing our wines.
The winery also has a restaurant which adjoins the Gazebo and Deck overlooking Wild Duck Lake. The Lake is a 15 megalitre sanctuary for the native wildlife in the area. The reaches of Cedar Creek which flows through the property are also home to a number of Platypus. The property is quickly developing into a popular tourist attraction with the addition of the Prime Ministers Way, which is a short stroll through rainforest which leads to the Glow Worm Caves. The caves consist of two main cave structures linked by a tunnel with one cave dubbed the Cathedral Cave. Bookings have already been placed for wedding ceremonies in this unique setting.
Visitors are welcome to view the many paintings on sale by one of Australia's famous artists, Arthur Hamblin, whose work captures the Australian outback. You can also browse among the many wine gifts and packs which are available through our Cellar Door. Don't forget to take a look at our new online gallery of Arthur Hamblin paintings.
Cedar Creek Estate Vineyard & winery is opening from 10am to 4pm 7 days a week with the exception of being closed on Christmas Day and Good Friday. Due to Liquor Licensing trading hours, the Cellar Door is closed until 1pm on Anzac Day with only the Restaurant open and permitted to serve alcohol with all main meals on Anzac Day.

DCRage's Stacked with Daniel Negreanu Review
No comments posted yet. Why not be the first to have your say?
Fairly high difficulty level. The tips aren't always accurate for the situation. Limited variety of game options.
The newest Poker game to hit the consoles, Stacked is also the latest to feature a top poker personality. Starring Player of the Year Daniel "Kid Poker" Negreanu, the game lets you learn and play the popular Texas Hold 'Em game in various environments then take your game online to compete in private games or massive online tournaments.
The graphics are solid and nicely detailed. The generic characters have a fair amount of detail and the pros in the game look very much like they do on TV. The backgrounds nicely capture the look of the poker rooms at the casinos & gambling establishments. Sounds are above average, featuring a fair amount of "table talk" (various comments/dialogue) from the players that can be adjusted to your liking, although the lines do get repetitive fairly quickly. Negreanu also lends his voice to his pro tips-you'll either like it or turn it off very quickly. The music is decent but gets repetitive quickly too. Controls are a little more complex than other poker games but fairly simple once you've figured them out; The extra buttons used allow players to more accurately play the game like in real-life, performing actions like aggressive or passive betting, various facial expressions, and peeking at your cards. Gameplay is basically standard Texas Hold 'Em, featuring both quick or "cash" games, as well as tournaments. There are both Limit & No Limit versions, but it's a little disappointing that no other forms of poker are featured. One thing this title does differently is it has rather extensive stat-tracking, recording not only how much you play but how often you win, bet, fold, etc. so you can get a better idea of how you play-this is also used for the innovative AI that adjusts its playing style to how you play, which always keeps the game interesting by forcing you to adjust your style for each situation. The game also fesatures several top young poker pros, including Negreanu, 2004 WSOP Main Event 2nd & 3rd place finishers David Williams & Josh Arieh, former dealer-turned-pro Evelyn Ng, and top tournament player Erick Lindgren, among others. You can also get tips at certain times from Negreanu himself as to what you should do, but these tips aren't always 100% accurate in the timing. Another difference setting this game apart from others is the structure of the online play: In addition to being able to play a regular game or invite your friends to a private game online, there is also the online stat tracking and plans for sponsored massive online tournaments, ultimately leading up to a possible final table appearance on TV. Additionally, you can unlock and play as the pros offline, but if you see them online it's actually them-so if you're online and have a Daniel Negreanu at your table, you're really playing against Kid Poker himself! The game's difficulty level is a little high at first, but tutorials and the poker tips help make the game more accessible to beginners and less skilled players, while helping more experienced players further improve their game.
Although is still has a few shortcomings, Stacked clearly is perhaps the best poker game now available, and the online format gives it a chance to really set itself apart from others with the planned tournament formats and being able to play against the pros. Both beginning and advanced poker players will find it challenging and a great tool for improving your game for when it's time to play for real.

A man accused of raping an 11-year-old girl in 2005 is in jail after Collier County detectives used his Facebook page to track his location in Connecticut.
The victim reported the rape in 2008, saying that Jose Guadalupe Hernandez-Posada, her mother's boyfriend at the time, sexually assaulted her at her home around August of 2005. The victim said he told her that he would kill her if she told anyone.
The family lost touch with Hernandez-Posada in 2006, according to a warrant, but he showed up at the home in 2009 banging on the door and asking for the girl's mother. Deputies were unable to locate him afterward.
Last October, a witness told deputies they found Hernandez-Posada's Facebook profile and created a fake page in order to engage him in conversation. The witness was able to find out where he lived and provide a phone number for him.
Detectives issued an arrest warrant Oct. 29. On Jan. 22, the U.S. Marshal Service's Connecticut violent fugitive task force found Hernandez-Posada at his job at a Hamden, Conn., car wash.
Hernandez-Posada was extradited and booked into the Naples Jail Center on Tuesday. Bond was withheld for the charge of sexual battery on a victim under 12.

Laos: Christian students barred from taking year-end tests
Catholic World News - May 28, 2014
A local official in Salsomboon, Laos, has ruled three young girls will not be allowed to take year-end examinations because they "forfeited their right to education" by embracing Christianity.
The incident is the latest in a series of steps taken against the Christian minority in Laos, where the government exercises strict control on religious activities.
