Hi I'm a 31 year old man who cares deeply about my family and friends. I am looking for a longterm relationship but i definitely don't want to rush into anything, start slow and let it grow kinda thing. I also have a little boy who i love dearly! I am not very good at obscurely describing myself but then again who is. I love the outdoors in any fashion swimming, hunting, fishing, camping, hiking, and gardening. I enjoy shooting pool and playing golf. I have a culinary degree so I love to cook and to go out to eat. Food is an adventure into and expression of every culture's personality! So if your the kind of person who is unwilling to try new foods I am probably not the right guy for you!

[F]or all the stump-speech hyperbole, a single, remorseless reality must govern the next president's actions, no matter who he is. The huge budget deficit, the war in Iraq, and the war on terrorism will combine to squeeze federal scientific agencies not directly involved in defense, homeland security, or several earmarked projects. Competing for scarce funds with a myriad of other money-strapped domestic agencies, the civilian science agencies face the likelihood of budget cuts, some quite substantial.

The Journal Sentinel's team of Packers beat writers provide the latest news, notes and analysis
McCarthy: Aaron Rodgers does more in practice, will be evaluated Friday
Green Bay - Here is a summary of Packers coach Mike McCarthy's post-practice press conference Thursday (the injury report is listed first):
- C Evan Dietrich-Smith - knee/ankle - limited
- LB Brad Jones - ankle - DNP
- RB Eddie Lacy - ankle - DNP
- LB Jamari Lattimore - knee - DNP
- LB Mike Neal - abdomen - DNP
- LB Nick Perry - foot - limited
- QB Aaron Rodgers - collarbone - limited
- DE C.J. Wilson - ankle - DNP
- (Rodgers) He was limited in practice. He did more today than yesterday. He was not cleared. He'll be evaluated Friday. We evaluate Wednesday and Friday.
- (Reps in practice) He throws the heck out of it. It's good to have him out there.
- (Compared to last week) I would say he came out of practice Wednesday better than a week ago.
- (Are you hopeful he'll play) He's a limited practice participant.
- (Eddie Lacy) Feel pretty good about him. Every injury is different, but he was able to go in the second half after the injury. He should be OK.
- (Returning to Dallas, site of Super Bowl win) Everybody will feel emotions in Dallas when we pull into the stadium tunnel. Always a special place for Green Bay Packers. True road game this time.
- (TE catches) I think ask any QB the TE has the ability to be his best friend. Look at 70-plus completion percentage, a lot of times it's related to checkdowns.
- (What's at stake in Dallas) Fourth quarter of season. Everything on line. Empty our tank down there. Fast track, great environment.

Constructive play is the manipulation of objects for the purpose of creating something. Building towers and tunnels with blocks, digging holes in sand, drawing with sidewalk chalk; these are all ways children can learn to play constructively. This type of play is great for kids because both fine and gross motor skills as well as problem solving is used.

Volvo Ocean Race team Groupama 4 has been sailing in the high pressure of the South Atlantic since Thursday evening and still has 1,000 miles to go to the finish of leg one in Cape Town.
Skipper Franck Cammas from France helming Groupama Sailing Team during leg 1 of the Volvo Ocean Race 2011-12
The two leaders have increased their lead with every hour and are likely to continue in that vein this weekend as Franck Cammas and his men have to pick through the Saint Helena High.
After some big surfing over the past two days, sailing conditions have changed dramatically for the three boats still racing in the Volvo Ocean Race. Behind the front, which has been propelling them along at speed towards the finish, the high pressure has moved back into position, starting with the tail of the fleet. As such Groupama 4 has been the first to be affected by this new configuration. Her crew put in a gybe on Thursday evening when the wind shifted round to the West as it eased, followed three hours later by the New Zealanders and in the early hours by the Spaniards. For the two leaders, the goal was to set a direct course for Cape Town, now less than 530 miles ahead of Telefonica and less than 675 miles ahead of Camper, in a southerly air flow, which is likely to accompany them as far as South Africa. This breeze of twelve to fifteen knots bodes well for a finish late afternoon on Saturday for the Spanish, and early Sunday for the New Zealanders.
For Groupama 4, the last 1,000 miles promise to be a long, slow procession in the light airs of the Saint Helena High! Already stalling in less than eighteen knots of breeze, the French boat is also having to bend her course round as she has to deal with easterly headwinds... In fact Franck Cammas and his crew have got nearly 500 miles of sailing to perform in light, fluky winds before hooking back onto a steady SSE'ly wind. Indeed, the closer they get to South Africa, the more likely the high pressure will be to make headway at the same speed as them. In the meantime they'll just have to wait patiently!
Fortunately, the last hundred miles or so will be a lot more pleasant with around twenty knots of breeze on the beam, rising temperatures and the certainty of a warm welcome. Indeed, even with a deficit of over 700 miles and a finish in Cape Town over two days later (ETA Monday evening), the results for Groupama 4 remain extremely positive: a guaranteed podium place, a boat in tip-top condition, a united crew, unquestionable potential, particularly when sailing with eased sheets and a considerable wealth of experience gained for the next stage of the race. At the end of this first leg of the Volvo Ocean Race, Franck Cammas and his men will still have a fifteen-point lead over the three boats which haven't managed to finish the leg, and a deficit of just nine points in relation to the likely winner, Telefonica... Indeed, there is very little chance now that the New Zealanders will manage to catch the Spanish, and even less likelihood that they'll pip them to the post.
Position at 1400 UTC on 25/11/2011
1. Telefonica - 525.7 miles from the finish
2. Camper - 146.9 astern of the leader
3. Groupama 4 - 517 astern of the leader

Photos: Minor league report – a look at how 12 of the Rangers' best prospects fared this week (July 8-14)
Photo: Michael Ainsworth/Staff Photographer
Leury Garcia, SS, double-A Frisco: Garcia snapped a month-long slump with a fantastic offensive week, blasting 11 hits in 25 at bats while stealing five bases in six tries. He has 14 steals in his last 31 games. The switch-hitting Garcia has shown himself to be more adept from the right side of the plate this year, posting an .849 OPS against lefties vs. a .654 mark against right-handers.

Assuming that you have followed the approach outlined in the tutorials, upgrading to new patch and sub-patch versions of the recipe shouldn't take long time. See recipes documentation to learn more about how recipe versioning is structured.
To get the newest point (or micro) release of the recipe, just run:
composer update
This will update the recipe to the new version, and pull in all the new dependencies. A new
composer.lock file will
be generated. Once you are satisfied the site is running as expected, commit both files:
git commit composer.* -m "Upgrading the recipe to latest point release"
After you have pushed this commit back to your remote repository you can deploy the change.
These will likely take more time as the APIs may change between minor and major releases. For small sites it's possible for minor upgrade to take a day of work, and major upgrades could take several days.
To upgrade your code, open the root
composer.json file (the one that was supplied with the installer). Find the
lines that reference
cwp-recipe-basic and
cwp-recipe-basic-dev and change the referenced versions.
For example assuming that you are currently on version
~1.0.1@stable, if you wish to upgrade to 2.0.0 you will need to
modify your
composer.json file to explicitly specify the new release branch, here
... "require": { "cwp/cwp-recipe-basic": "~2.0.0@stable" }, "require-dev": { "cwp/cwp-recipe-basic-dev": "~2.0.0@stable" }, ...
You now need to pull in new dependencies and commit the lock file:
composer update git commit composer.* -m "Upgrading to recipe 2.0.0"
Push this commit to your remote repository, and you will be able to deploy to UAT.
If you like to only upgrade the recipe modules, you can cherry pick what is upgraded using this syntax:
composer update cwp/cwp-recipe-basic cwp/cwp-recipe-basic-dev
This will update only the two specified metapackage modules without touching anything else. You still need to commit
Projects using the old-style forks of
recipe-basic will need to be migrated to the new style of managing dependencies.
recipe-basic module has now been deprecated and should not be used. This migration will need to be done just once
and will greatly improve the way you can keep the project up to date with the most recent security patches.
You will know you need to migrate your project if you see the following configuration in your root
"require": { "php": ">=5.3.2", "cwp/cwp": "*", ... long list of CWP dependencies follow here ... "my-agency/my-dependency": "*" },
This long list of dependencies should no longer be pulled in directly. Here is how to fix this for the future.
First, identify the list of modules which you have added to the project. In the above example this is represented as
my-agency/my-dependency - these need to be kept. All the remaining original dependencies must be stripped off
and replaced with a single mention of the
cwp/cwp-recipe-basic (not to be confused with
cwp/recipe-basic which
is now deprecated). The result should look like follows:
"require": { cwp/cwp-recipe-basic": "~1.0.1@stable", "my-agency/my-dependency": "*" },
We also need to apply similar approach to the "require-dev" section. The outcome will likely look like this:
"require-dev": { "cwp/cwp-recipe-basic-dev": "~1.0.1@stable" },
Finally, the "repositories" section needs to be tidied up. All the original repository entries need to be replaced with a single definition pointing to https://packages.cwp.govt.nz. You still need to retain references to your private modules though. Here is an example outcome:
"repositories": [ { "type": "composer", "url": "https://packages.cwp.govt.nz/" }, { "type": "vcs", "url": "https://gitlab.cwp.govt.nz/my-agency/my-module.git", "private": "true" } ],
After you have finished cleaning up your
composer.json file, you need to run:
composer update
This will make sure you get the latest stable module versions. You also need to make sure all the external modules
have been added to your
.gitignore file to prevent them from being inadvertently commited. Just add the module names
at the end of the file:
... cwp-recipe-basic-dev/ cwp-recipe-basic/
Test the site on your dev machine and commit the resulting
composer.lock file if all works well. Then deploy to UAT.
For your reference, Here is a full example of a correct
composer.json file on a real project, with default theme
excluded (as the project already provides its own theme):
{ "name": "<real-agency>/<real-project>", "require": { "cwp/cwp-recipe-basic": "~1.0.1@stable", }, "require-dev": { "cwp/cwp-recipe-basic-dev": "~1.0.1@stable" }, "config": { "process-timeout": 900 }, "repositories": [ { "type": "composer", "url": "https://packages.cwp.govt.nz/" } ], "minimum-stability": "dev" }
cwp/recipe-basic module
cwp/cwp-installer package (this package is useful for jump-starting your projects)

As a result of numerous drug peddlers being identified and banned from Rockford Housing Authority properties, it is no coincidence that the number of criminal offenses dropped from 1,202 in 2005 to 181 in the first nine months of 2010, an 85 percent reduction.
ROCKFORD — Larry Hodges received a quick introduction to the city's drug culture when he visited a Rockford Housing Authority site in plain clothes and in his own vehicle.
"I got offered drugs five times," he said.
Hodges, who leads the private security firm Metro Enforcement, later returned in full uniform, approached a suspect vehicle and was still offered his choice of drugs.
"I walked up to a vehicle to do an ID check. They rolled down the window and asked me, 'How many bags do you need?' He didn't even look to see who I was."
The overt drug transactions happened several times a day until June 15, 2005. That's when Metro Enforcement was hired to patrol the housing authority's Blackhawk and Orton Keyes sites. Before the year was over, RHA hired the local security firm to patrol all of its housing complexes and drug enforcement was made a priority.
As a result of numerous drug peddlers being identified and banned from RHA properties, Hodges said it is no coincidence that the number of criminal offenses dropped from 1,202 in 2005 to 181 in the first nine months of 2010, an 85 percent reduction.
"I'm not going to say there are no drugs being sold there, because we are still making (drug) arrests," Hodges said, "but there is no open-air drug market. It's not as blatant."
Basic training
The city's public housing authority, governed by five commissioners appointed by the mayor, employs slightly more than 100 people and operates three family developments: Blackhawk Courts, Fairgrounds Valley and Orton Keyes.
Jane Addams was torn down in 2008. Concord Commons is owned by Rockford Housing Development Corp., an affiliate of RHA. The 216-unit apartment complex is managed by Mid-Northern Group.
Other RHA properties include 300 scattered sites and high and low rises: Brewington Oaks, Buckbee Apartments, Midvale Apartments, North Main Manor, Olesen Plaza, Park Terrace and Summit Green.
With the exception of Brewington Oaks, high-rise tenants are generally 50 and older or are disabled.
Hodges declined to say how often his officers patrol the sites.
But he did say crime reduction efforts center on "the basics," which include asking anyone and everyone on RHA property for their identification.
"We tell our officers anyone you come in contact with, you need to find out who they are and what they are doing. It's two-fold: If it's a tenant, you are building a rapport. If the person is not a tenant, they need to have a reason for being on RHA grounds."
Any ID check that leads to drugs and weapons confiscation often lead to jail time.
Hodges said that most problems at a RHA site are most likely not at the hands of a tenant.
Page 2 of 2 - "The biggest problem with the housing authority is the people who come there to prey on or to visit people who live there."
Hodges also said there is some truth that crime is not being eradicated, but is simply moving.
"We do get blamed for crime moving to other places, and I would have to agree. (Criminals) are going to go to the path of least resistance. We're not going to cure crime by doing what we're are doing, but we are going to take care of our customers."
Residents are accountable
RHA pays for its own security, but Rockford police officers are not absent from RHA properties. Deputy Chief Mike Booker said patrols still occur and a lieutenant and sergeant are assigned to RHA sites.
"We share data, we share tenant lists, and we share arrest information with them to help identify those who do not qualify for housing," Booker said.
"If we notice there is a particular problem or an acute problem, we make sure the management gets that information."
A Police Department crime analyst also helps the RHA identify crime trends and locations.
Booker said, "If there is a high-incident location, is it the fault of the tenant? Are the tenants being responsible with the assistance afforded to them?"
RHA Director John Cressman said for every available housing unit, there are multiple applicants, which allows the housing authority to be
Kevin Martin, RHA security analyst, said background checks that once were limited to Winnebago County are now nationwide searches.
"Our process is pretty rigorous," he said. "We also do a credit check with preference points for being employed as well as being homeless."
Once approved, Martin said tenants are required to do community service and are held accountable for their property and guests.
"You cannot have a banned person in your property," he said. "You don't want somebody over who is going to cause you to get evicted."
While crime reduction at Blackhawk, Fairgrounds and Orton Keyes came relatively quick, Martin said the stigma of government-subsidized housing being identified as drug-infested communities with life-long tenants will take time to change.
"This is supposed to be transitional housing," he said before recalling the words painted on a lobby wall at the downtown RHA office: "Move in. Move up. Move out."

A Grief Unobserved: Did Evelyn Waugh's Cruelty Cost Him His Wife-And Life? (Culture)
Stove, R. J., The American Conservative
Can a woman ... have no compassion on the child from her womb?
-Isaiah 49:15
Bereavement. Weird thing. You have known for years an utterly kind, virtuous, and devout lady who suddenly tells you that K., her daughter, aged 31--also utterly kind, virtuous, and devout--has just died after a life of cystic fibrosis.
You attend the resultant funeral, whence you emerge more or less sentient but with the generalized conviction of having witnessed "King Lear's" last act performed in the gulag. You do what pitifully little you can to console the family. You peruse the booklet's utterances like "May the angels lead thee into Paradise" and "Day of wrath, oh day of mourning" and once your internal screams have died down, your general verdict approximates to Huckleberry Finn's lit crit: "The statements was interesting, but tough."
You will later, of course, be benevolently assured by some stentorian atheist, Vicar of Dibley, or liturgical expert that you are "wallowing in self-pity." Perhaps you are. But it makes you to think. About really primal stuff: good, bad, innocence, guilt.
Memories flood back. Of K., but also of others. You think of de Gaulle, who interred his Down's Syndrome daughter with the haunting words Maintenant, elle est comme les autres, and who spent his last eight years convinced that he survived a 1962 murder attempt because a bullet bounced off that daughter's picture.
If it has been a religious rite--K.'s was a Requiem Mass--you think about clergy, not always your own communion's clergy. They might be fictional. You think about Father Brown and Don Camillo and Dostoyevsky's Grand Inquisitor, and the real-life Father Brown who, in various guises, calmed you--nothing was ever too much trouble for him--and clergy whom you never met but whom you will always remember. Such as Dietrich Bonhoeffer, his visage aglow with bliss, preparatory to being hanged with piano wire. Fr. Damien--on the morning he began his sermon not with "Brethren" but with "We lepers"--is somewhere in your thoughts. So is the late lamented Fr. Lawrence Murphy of Milwaukee, who for two decades got his kicks by molesting not just 200 boys, but 200 deaf boys. The resultant legal payouts cost $26.5 million. A lynching-bee could have achieved a better outcome without one archdiocesan dollar being spent.
You see a crucifix and you alarm yourself by thinking: Christ's final anguish lasted three hours; K.'s cystic fibrosis lasted 31 years. You realize that K. belongs to one species and you to another, inferior one. K. is recognizably of the same breed as Edith Stein; you, per contra, can do a tolerably good imitation of Elmer Gantry, or, on a good day, Tartuffe.
You pay the bills marked, in red, URGENT; you curse yourself for having been too timid to attend the actual burial; you cultivate Candide's garden. You suddenly recall that Maundy Thursday hymn by Peter Abelard, poignant in itself, shattering when coupled to the chorale-like tune ("Intercessor") composed by Sir Hubert Parry, whom academics once solemnly dismissed to you as "dull" and, worse, "Victorian":
This is the night, dear friends, the night for weeping, when powers of darkness overcome the day, the night the faithful mourn the weight of evil whereby our sins the Son of Man betray ...
And, in what leisure remains, you read.
Thomas Mann, tireless anti-Nazi, wrote a 1939 tract with the astonishing title Hitler: My Brother. Many authors who first reached publication in the 1980s could have collaborated on a tract titled Evelyn Waugh: My Brother. Not only did we never quite get over his work, even if we hated it; we never quite forgot how he could scrutinize our souls.
I'm not speaking of Waugh's obvious set-pieces (spoiler alert here): Lord Marchmain's deathbed; the Man Who Liked Dickens; Basil Seal digesting stewed girlfriend; Guy Crouchback ultimately cleansing Waugh's bosom of that perilous anti-Jewish stuff which weighed upon the heart; perhaps more vivid than these, the appalling scene in A Handful of Dust where an inadvertent mix-up of given names leads to the adulterous wife greeting her son's death with "Thank God" Nor do I speak of Waugh's published nonfiction, which contains in Robbery Under Law our language's greatest single traditionalist credo. …

Suspension problem
2000 BMW 740 V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 93000 miles
Starting around 40 mph on up, when the brakes are applied lightly the steering wheel starts a back and forth oscilation that can be controlled by either letting off the brake or pushing harder on the brake. I suspect maybe the idler arm needs replacing or maybe the Struts. Can you please give me your input.
2000 BMW 740 V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 93000 miles
Starting around 40 mph on up, when the brakes are applied lightly the steering wheel starts a back and forth oscilation that can be controlled by either letting off the brake or pushing harder on the brake. I suspect maybe the idler arm needs replacing or maybe the Struts. Can you please give me your input.
September 8, 2008.
September 8, 2008.
The center track rod, the idler and the thrust rod bushings are all causes of this concern, if the thrust arm bushings show signs of leakage, replace them, if the idler has play, replace it, there is a bulletin for the center track getting hot from the exhaust and making noise and there is an updated part number.
Dr. Hagerty
Sep 8, 2008.
Sep 8, 2008.
I replaced the center track rod, and both thrust rods with new bushings. The idler arm was not replaced because it had no movement in any direction. The problem was improved but the oscillation still exist when brakes are applied. Could the control arms are the struts be my problem.
Unless the struts are really worn they probably aren't a contributing factor. You state you replaced the thrust arm bushings, did you install them correctly, they are directional. If there are worn rod ends on the thrust arms, they can be a contributing factor. Are the wheels stock, are the tires old and/or worn and are they properly inflated? Try rotating the tires front to back and see if it changes things.
Dr. Hagerty
Jan 25, 2009.
Jan 25, 2009.
Thank you for your response. The wheels are stock and the tires have been rotated. I replaced both torque arms with new ball joints and installed the new bushings in the very same position as the old ones. The only thing I have not replaced yet is the Control Arms which have a bushing and a ball joint.
The control arms seldom cause this issue, there is something else at the cause of your vibration. What brand of tires are they?
Michelin 235/60R-16 with about 45K on the tires. Maybe its time to change the Tires even with good tread remaining.
Jan 26, 2009.
Jan 26, 2009.
I agree, if I may recommend Tire rack. Com for tires and you may wish to try something besides Michelin, I am a huge fan of Yokohama tires as they are on my truck and my Wife's car too. Just my opinion mate.
I had this problem with my 1997 BMW 740 with 92,000 miles, at first I thought it was a lower control arm bushings, they were worn so I went ahead and replaced, but that wasn't the problem it was only amplifying the original problem, the problem you are describing is identical to mine, my problem was warped rotors on the front, as soon as I change the rotors and the brake pads my vibration was gone, people don't realize BMW seven series weighs 6000 pounds, you're not driving a Toyota you can not wait for the very last instant to slam on the brakes, you've got to look ahead of you what color of the lights and do a little bit more cruising, in other words: take your foot off the accelerator and Coast, or you will have more problems, like, struts, idle or arm, ball joints, control or bushings etc.

Habitat and Ecology
Mobula japanica attains at least 310 cm DW but is usually smaller than 250 cm DW. The reproductive mode within this family is aplacental viviparity and the species possesses only a single functional ovary. Embryos obtain nutrients initially by yolk, then through absorption of enriched uterine fluid from the mother (Wourms 1977). Size at birth ranges between 70 and 85 cm DW (Notarbartolo-di-Sciara 1988, Compagno and Last 1999). In Indonesia, males mature between 205 and 210 cm DW, and one pregnant female contained a single embryo 50 cm DW (W. White unpublished data). In the Gulf of California, males appeared to reach sexual maturity at ~210 cm DW and females by ~207 cm DW based on follicle size.
There is no published information on the age and growth of this species.
The species is planktivorous with stomach contents containing 99.6% euphausiids (Nyctiphanes simplex) from April through July (Notarbartolo-di-Sciara 1988).
In the area around Bahia de la Ventana (southern Gulf of California, México) individuals are found from April through late summer, with a peak of abundance in late summer (Notarbartolo-di-Sciara 1988). Seasonally later occurrence than M. thurstoni in the Bahia la Ventana region suggests resource competition avoidance (Notarbartolo-di-Sciara 1988). Movement patterns and migrations of mobulids are not well understood.

Population Trend
Mobula japanica is a common catch in the inshore pelagic tuna gillnet fisheries of Indonesia and is also taken by purse seine in that country. The high value of gill rakers in some areas, e.g., Pelabuhanratu in West Java (W. White unpublished data), is driving a dramatic increase in the catch of mobulids in Indonesia where some fishers are now targeting devil rays. When shark catches are lower (off-season, December to March) fishers are landing more mobulids as an alternative (W. White pers. obs.). The flesh is also utilized both for human consumption and as bait and chum for longlines.
The species is caught in artisanal drift and demersal gillnet fisheries and directly targeted using harpoons in the Gulf of California. Mobula japanica represented 30% of the catch of mobulids observed during a survey of artisanal landings in Bahia de la Ventana, southwestern Gulf of California (Notarbartolo-di-Sciara 1988). This was second to M. thurstoni, which represented 58% of the catch. Mean daily capture of M. japanica in Bahia de la Ventana from March to July 1983 was: March: 0.0, April: 0.4, May: 0.4, June: 1.7, July: 4.3 (Notarbartolo-di-Sciara 1988). Seventeen individuals were noted among landings of 12 pangas at Punta Arena de la Ventana in June 2001 (J. Bizzarro pers. obs.). There is still an active mobulid fishery in the southwest Gulf of California, south of La Paz and devil rays are also landed in nearshore artisanal elasmobranch fisheries throughout the Gulf of California.
Mobula japonica comprised 37% of the Philippine mobulid fishery during 2002 (Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources, unpublished study), which may reflect its relative importance in other target fisheries in the Southeast Asia region. There is currently a ban on fishing for manta rays in the Philippines, but the effectiveness of this ban is questionable due to limited enforcement ability and mobulids are still being taken illegally.
Mobula japanica is not likely to be able to tolerate high catch levels, given its low reproductive potential. Increasing catches of mobulids in Indonesia, which may mirror increases elsewhere, is of great concern.
Conservation Actions
In México, a moratorium on the issue of elasmobranch fishing permits was issued in 1993, but no formal management plan has been implemented for Mobula japanica specifically or most other chondrichthyans. However, legislation is currently being developed in México to establish national elasmobranch fishery management.
Elasmobranch landings in most parts of the world generally lack species-specific details (for example in México, batoids are broadly grouped as ?manta raya?). Improved clarity in catch records would provide a basis for detecting potential trends in effort and landings.
In the Philippines, fishing for mobulids was banned in 1998, however it was lifted in 1999 to study the fishery. The ban was put back in place in 2002, and currently it is illegal to fish for any Manta or Mobula in Philippine waters. However, enforcement is insufficient and mobulids are still being taken illegally.
Elasmobranch fisheries are generally unmanaged throughout Central America and Southeast Asia and indeed elsewhere in the range of this species, and attempts to regulate fisheries in these regions would greatly improve conservation of M. japanica and other chondrichthyans.
The development and implementation of management plans (national and/or regional e.g., under the FAO International Plan of Action for the Conservation and Management of Sharks: IPOA?Sharks) are required to facilitate the conservation and sustainable management of all chondrichthyan species across the regions where this ray occurs.
The vulnerability of mobulids and increasing catches requires urgent international conservation measures. These will need to focus on harvest and trade management.
Relevance to Humans and Ecosystems
Spinetail mobula
Mobula japanica, commonly known as the spinetail mobula or devil ray, is a species of pelagic marine fish which belongs to the family Myliobatidae found throughout the tropical and sub-tropical waters of the Indo-Pacific and eastern Atlantic Ocean.[1] The spinetail mobula is dark blue to black above and white below. Some distinctive points of the spinetail mobula are that its head projects from the disk, the inner surface of the cephalic fins (horns) are silver-grey with black tips, while the outer surface and side behind eye is white.[2]It also has a tail spine.[3]

Cats are America's most popular pet, but they're also filling up shelters and rescues. We can give you the resources to provide the best care for your cats.
Resources and Articles
From the Magazine
Mouthpieces: Love Your Cat? Then TAG Your Cat!
In this issue, Mouthpieces helps you communicate to pet owners the importance of outfitting their precious feline companions with a collar and tag.
Shelter Medicine: Kittens: Coming Soon to a Shelter Near You
During the spring and summer'also known as "kitten season" to shelters and rescues'pregnant cats, nursing mothers, and kittens overwhelm facilities across the nation. Shelters have to take extra measures to protect young kittens from exposure to germs, and must provide them with a series of vaccinations, plus high-quality nutrition and proper deworming, to keep those mewing fuzz balls healthy.
Collars and Sense
It's often said in the sheltering field that a collar and identification tag are a lost pet's best chance of returning home. That's especially true for felines: Only 2 to 5 percent of the millions of homeless cats entering shelters each year are reunited with their families.
Survey Says ... Get a Cat!
The Morris Animal Foundation surveyed non-cat owners about their perceptions of cats to gain insight into what may be preventing them from finding those homes. The results show that the next wave of cat owners may come from unexpected segments of society.

If you would be so kind, I would like to ask you to view this brief bit of blasphemous cheek. It'll just take a few minutes. Now then, all set? Let's break this down into two basic parts. The first part is that Stephen Fry is given a thought experiment, and we should take a moment to see how he thinks in thought experiments. He doesn't believe in God, but he is nevertheless asked a "what if." What if you were wrong, the questioner asks, and the whole thing turns out to be true, with you finding yourself in a conversation with God at the Pearly Gates. Fry takes that occasion to launch into his diatribe. Bone cancer in children? What's with that? But I want to note something really strange about this set up. When God and Fry take their places as these disputants, Fry undertakes to argue morality with Him. And in order to argue this way, he has to assume -- and most certainly does assume -- that there is a moral standard that overarches the two of them, and which is equally … [Read more...]
Natural Evil and the Classical Christian School
One of the central arguments that materialistic atheism offers against the Christian faith is that the reality and universality of suffering is inconsistent with the doctrine that we were created by, and are loved by, a gracious heavenly Father. If we intend to do our job in training our students to be able to defend their faith as they go out into the world, it seems to me that we ought not to begin by granting the foundational premise of unbelief. Believe me, the pressing reality of natural evil is a major argument that the atheists use, and the theistic evolutionists will have to do a lot better than they have done thus far in mounting a reply. If evolution was God's means of creating, then this means that pain, struggle, suffering, agony, and torment were His means of creation, and He pronounced all of it "good." There are two kinds of evil that we have to consider -- natural evil and moral evil. While moral evil is more horrendous, it is a little easier to handle because … [Read more...]
Their Temples of Reason
It is usually no fun when people play the race card, but when evolutionists do it, the results can be highly entertaining, at least after a few million years. My brother Gordon is Senior Fellow of Natural History at New St. Andrews. He was recently engaged to teach a one-off course in microbiology at the University of Idaho, which drew this protest, and then this one. There is a kind of evolutionist who insists that his theory can only be falsified with rabbit fossils in the precambrian, and then rests easily in the full assurance that anything with a rabbit fossil in it can't be precambrian by definition. This method works swell for them, and so they try to use a similar approach to journal articles, terminal degrees, and teaching slots. Creationists are clearly not equipped to be in the proximity of any of those things -- for are they not all cornpones? -- and so whenever they see a creationist they chase him out promptly, and then use his strange absence as an argument. His … [Read more...]
So Go Nomo to the Pomo
So I have written about the problems of postmodernism, what I have called the problem of European brain snakes. This might seem a little dismissive, but it all works out, because it actually is dismissive. Allow me to collect my thoughts on this in one place. First, postmodernism, and all the posturing and posing connected thereunto, is utterly inconsistent with the spirit of testimony that faithful Christians love to exhibit. Our testimony (marturia) is to the truth, and the truth is personal and ultimate. When I say the truth is ultimate, I do not mean ultimate in the concerns of our own little faith community. I mean Lord of all that is, Lord of Heaven and earth, and King of all nature. The truth is Jesus, and He is eternal life -- and there is no other. "And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy" … [Read more...]
To Obligate Belief
The classic beginning of Calvin's Institutes rightly assumes that it is not possible to know God without knowledge of ourselves. Without knowledge of self there is no knowledge of God. But it runs the other direction as well. It "not easy to discern" which knowledge precedes and brings forth the other. They are interdependent. "Accordingly, the knowledge of ourselves not only arouses us to seek God, but also, as it were, leads us by the hand to find him" (Institutes 1.1.1). The same kind of thing is true of other sets of complementary assumptions. I cannot know my Cartesian pinpoint self without assuming something about the authority of logic. I think I think, therefore I think I am, I think. I cannot know the Bible without assuming something about the nature of the world in which I learned to read it, along with the reality of Miss Robinson who taught me how to read in first grade. I cannot know one thing without knowing something about all things. This, if true, means that the … [Read more...]
Seven Theses on the Age of the Earth
I recently came to the conclusion that it was time to set down in one place my reasons for approaching Genesis the way I do. I have noticed that the topic has become a matter of increased debate in classical Christian circles -- and because schools cannot honestly stay out of it -- it matters a great deal what we teach and why. So here are seven theses on the age of the earth. 1. First, the age of the earth, considered in isolation, is neither here nor there. The issue is always what God said, and not how old something is. If the earth is six thousand years old now, it will eventually be one hundred thousand years old at some point, about ninety-four thousand years from now. Will theologians at that time still be required to hold to a "young earth" view? So the issue is not age, or day, or young, or old, but rather the substance of what God actually said. Whatever He actually revealed should be what we use as the foundation for all our subsequent thought. After we have our … [Read more...]
Pink Entropy
I recently wrote on the subject of entropy here, and set off a maelstrom of comments. Some people just have that gift, and other people don't. That appears to be just the way it is for me, and I try to be humble about it. Sometimes I think my comments section is a good example of entropy. If I might, I would like to supplement my initial observations with a few quick follow up jabs, and see if it happens again. These are just quick responses to a couple of basic questions that were raised, and which I would like answer outside the thread. Since I speak English, let us go with a dictionary: Entropy is "a thermodynamic quantity representing the unavailability of a system's thermal energy for conversion into mechanical work, often interpreted as the degree of disorder or randomness in the system." Now I don't see anything in my argument or illustrations that would constitute a howler when it comes to that definition. Assuming that this is a reasonable English expression of what … [Read more...]
Building Things With Sunshine
I have said in the past that I think evolution is a hoot, and moreover, I have given reasons for thinking this. One of the reasons is that the idea of evolution runs clean contrary to the second law of thermodynamics. In response to this view of mine, an anti-theist web site (read more here) has offered the following: "To finish this argument (hopefully once and for all) I will give a similar example but in relation to life.- In 'open' thermodynamic systems energy is imported to turn simple compounds into complex ones, a perfect example of this is photosynthesis in which; water and carbon-dioxide are turned into complex carbohydrates. The energy for this is imported from the sun, because the earth is not a 'closed' system, it is an open one. If evolution is impossible relating to the second law, so is photosynthesis, which is obviously not the case." Let me go straight to my conclusion, state the problem, and then work back to the argument. My interlocutor is trying to explain things … [Read more...]
The Way It Looks on the Screen
So I am a presuppositionalist. That's true enough, but what do I need to presuppose? This will require more development, but what needs to be presupposed is the way things actually are. You don't need to know all the precise details of how things actually are -- you don't begin at the end -- but you do have to be committed to the truth a priori, knowing that such objective, unmovable truth, which is so necessary as the foundation of every form of knowing, is not possible apart from the bedrock of the true and living God. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge (Prov. 9:10). But beginning with the fear of the Lord does not mean beginning with the Lord alone, the Lord solitary, the Lord isolated. No one can know the Lord that way -- it is incoherent -- oxymoronic. God cannot be known from outside God unless there is a creation, in which the knower lives. And if he lives in a created order larger than himself, then he also knows things other than God simultaneously with his … [Read more...]
C.S. Lewis and Moose Tracks Ice Cream
Over the last few weeks, we have been discussing natural law -- the good, the bad, and the ugly. Jim Jordan kicked things off by attacking The Calvinist International at the Auburn Avenue conference, and I wrote a few posts on the subject, including an outline of my own debt to C.S. Lewis, and my derivative gratitude for the work of Van Til. So the debate now continues. Peter Escalante and Steven Wedgeworth have now replied to Jim here. In addition, just as I did, Steven gives an account of his intellectual pilgrimage here. We all travel different paths, but we ascend the same mountain. That's what natural law leads to, right? A syncretistic swirl of paganism and Christianity, like moose tracks ice cream? The oxen are slow, but the earth is patient, that kind of thing? Not really. I think this is a fruitful topic for debate because it concerns the nature of reality, and our access to that reality. For every Christian who lives downstream from Kant, I think this is an issue … [Read more...]
The Pigeon Forge Chapter
Okay, so the creation/evolution debate has many entries in the Annals of the Wheeze Worthy, but this is a particularly strong entry. A gent named Dan Arel has posted on why Bill Nye, the Science Guy, should not debate Ken Ham. You can read all about that here. If you choose to do so, you will encounter this . . . "To win a debate successfully you must understand your opponent's position better than they do, in fact, you should know it well enough that you could debate for them. Creationists have no rules, their dishonesty stops nowhere . . . Ham will care little for any facts or evidence and will stick to nonsense and will feed on audience ignorance and use terms like "irreducible complexity" to confuse the watchers into thinking he has made a valid point . . . This debate is being held at the Creation Museum itself and this will ensure that the brain-dead creationist zombies . . ." The good news is that Arel is telling us that he could "debate for" all of us brain dead zombies. … [Read more...]
Apologetics and the Heart
This article was originally published in Antithesis (July/August 1990). I still agree with all of this, but I must say that reading stuff of mine that is over twenty years old gives me the feeling that I used to compose my prose with flattened cardboard boxes and tin snips. Just so you know. In preparing this for the blog, I fixed a few typos, and no doubt introduced a few new ones. And all the italics refused to transfer for some reason. Apologetics and the Heart I must perhaps begin by explaining that I do understand that an (abusive) ad hominem argument is a logical fallacy. There is no reason to think we have refuted someone's arguments simply because we have vigorously attacked their person. There is also another fallacy, closely related to the ad hominem, dubbed "Bulverism" by C.S. Lewis.[i] He pointed out the modern tendency to dismiss an argument on no stronger grounds than the fact that you had explained how your opponent came to believe it. But it does not follow … [Read more...]
Natural Law and Self-Deception
So it looks to me as though we are going to have a full bore discussion of natural law. This is fine, and about time. I do think that there are some genuine differences here, obviously, but perhaps not as many as advertised. Some of this seems to me to be a debate between advocates of natural knowing, on the one hand, and natural understanding on the other. If you look in the comments on the previous "5K in your pocket" post, you will see a link to Andrew Fulford's article on certain tensions in Van Til's position, along with some comments on it. Here is that link again. But if you will allow me to complicate things a little bit -- for is that not my spiritual gift? -- I would point out one other implication of any expression like natural law. If there is a law, then there is a lawgiver, as I have already said. But if there is a natural law, then there is also a body of persons to whom the legislation applies. If there is law in Idaho, there is a legislature. But there must also … [Read more...]
Spring Loaded
One of the things we should have realized by now is that the world around us is far crazier than we could ever have dreamed. Just when we have finally accommodated ourselves to taking yesterday's staggering discoveries for granted, along comes another one. Our sinful hearts have an almost infinite capacity for taking things for granted, and even we are having trouble keeping up. Word now comes that the language of DNA is not limited to one language. This is more than just a genetic palimpsest. This means that we have, at least in some places, a line of code that is coded in two different ways in order to perform two different functions. It is as though the boss at the factory said something like "turn on the fitzoblaster" and two different employees understood him perfectly, and went and turned on two different machines, and both employees did exactly what the boss wanted -- obeying his command in two different but homophonic languages. But the boss, under evolutionary assumptions, … [Read more...]
Down the Trunk of the Jub Jub Tree
This morning, I read this little snippet at the Bayly Blog, and thought I needed to add my two cents. Here is my first penny. Note that a "first couple" is not required by the text of Scripture, but that it is required by the theologians. Well, then . . . all rise! If the theologians need a first couple, then who are we to say anything to the contrary? We are not strictly bound by what the Bible says, but we are bound by what the theologians need. And what theologians need most, as everybody knows, is a donor base that won't cut off their seminary. And this means that the words must be parsed very carefully, like a donkey eating a thistle. My second farthing is that this quote quite obviously leaves room for the first couple to be the first couple that God decided to make a covenant with, themselves descended from a long line of critters. This means that just as God called Abram out of Ur, so also He called Adam and Eve down from the trees. This is because God looked far into the … [Read more...]

Looks like the folks at True Blood have issued out another casting call according to Spoiler TV. This one is out for episode five and is looking for Godric, a two thousand year old ancient Vampire that looks fifteen. The character is described as small in stature and youthful appearing, but still able to project intense power and wisdom. The actor's accent does not matter.
Filming for the still untitled episode will begin filming between the end of February and the beginning of March.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 184.108.40.206
Forum Moderators: open
I just checked all 9 datacenters. Only -sj and -fi have the new index.
Just Curious (anyone): Certainly it's been true for a while that backlinks are important (rationale: a more-or-less "unbiased vote" about one's site)...
So, if backlinks are so easy to add back in "quickly" (though trillianjedi pointed out two conflicting posts on that from GG)...WHY haven't they been added in yet?
Seems to me that G could have easily done that before the data centers started spewing out into the real world yesterday. Still testing maybe?
Makes me wonder what is really going on that's not understod yet.
Any thoughts?
so we are figuring that when our serps finally do go fresh on -sj/-fi, that it might be the start of something big whew whoo..
So right now, from this chair, we see:
One set of results on: -ex, -va, -dc, -in, -cw
Different results on: -ab, -zu
Different results on: -sj
Different results on: -fi
Maybe others have posted this and I've just missed...
too many for us. we're watching sj, fi, and www. our brains can't comprehend more than that. and sj & fi seem to be doing more sitting around and doing nothing at the moment than anything else(except maybe popping up here and there) .
don't seem to have moved much in content at all since there was a backlink injection days ago up to 617k, from 384k or so. like they were put on pause...
We (think) that we've already learned a few juicy tidbits about what G seems to be testing, by watching the differences between -sj and -fi. Now we see the possibility of another test emerging. More data, more learning.
When it all nets out, we'll HOPEFULLY be smarter about how G got there. That's the goal anyway, and so far so good :-). But hey, it could just be that we've lost touch with reality!
that is why were are looking for input:
does anyone see in signficant change in -sj or -fi in the last few days? does nobody want to share? we don't see any changes on them taking place recently.
since they are still not current with SERP (at least not with us) that might indicate if the stew still has more simmering before anything goes live....
we can't tell if it's Google changes and where would they be coming from, or just lighter web traffic in our keyphrases (course that never is been an easy one to gauge because apparently google has no tool to measure historical traffic on a given key phrase. not that we are aware of anyway).
thanks for the feedback.
we have been focused on -sj/-fi based on hints from GG, and at this point we are drawing the line at those two- along with watching www results. trying to keep any eye on every possible G center online that we can look at isn't practical for us.
maybe they will bring back the sub-domain type URL's that show the datacenter in the referrer URL. the ones we saw for a day or two a few days back. than we might have a more accurate picture of what results are showing for us and where, or not.

Posted January 17, 2013 on AP on Fox
Carmelo Anthony returned to his Olympic gold medal past and scored 26 points Thursday to lead the New York Knicks to a 102-87 victory over the Detroit Pistons. Anthony scored 18 in the first half as the Knicks (25-13) jumped out to a 16-2 lead before holding a double-digit lead for most of the game. Amare Stoudemire added 17 points for the Knicks and J.R. Smith scored 16. Will Bynum led the Pistons with 22 points. The Pistons (14-25) were the home team at the O2 Arena in London, the site of the Olympic gold-medal game during last year's London Games. It was the third regular-season NBA game played at the venue, where the then-New Jersey Nets swept the Toronto Raptors in a pair of games two years ago. Anthony and Tyson Chandler were on the team that celebrated a gold medal for the United States with a win over Spain in August. Chandler scored 10 points on Thursday and pulled down 14 rebounds. Anthony has now scored at least 20 points in 25 straight games, extending the longest s...
