Is there a way to get Emacs tags-search command to collect all search results in a buffer? Something like the way results from 'grep' and 'tags-apropos' are collected in a compilation buffer?

It's all about farming and produce that's organic and for good health. It's important to support our local farmers that provide us with a safe healthy food supply. We also have a marvelous supply of fresh unfrozen fish every Saturday and the only food that I buy at a grocery are products that I canNOT get at the Haile Plantation Farmer's Market.

Pause to Reflect: What Role Does Privilege Play in Finding Your Purpose?
In his infamous hierarchy of needs, Maslow argues that safety (eg: steady employment, health, and property) must be secured before one can spend any serious time thinking about self-actualization. Yet modern researchers suggest that having a sense of purpose is crucial to healthy development. What do you think? Is purpose only for the privileged?

does this mean that we will get PS3 Backwards Compatibility soon?
does this mean that we will get PS3 Backwards Compatibility soon?
I don't get the entire "bringing back" bit. We've had compatibility all along, otherwise how can we play PS1/PS2 classics from the PSN?
Well if we are comparing a 60GB launch PS3 that is on CFW compared to a PC emulator for ps2/ps1 games then the PS3 would be a superior choice for a few major reasons.
- Since the launch model has PS2 hardware, it has far better compatibility than the available PC emulators. PS1 not so much, but definitely when it comes to PS2.
- No setting configurations to worry about
- Automatic support of PS3 controller (which is basically the same as PS2/PS1 so it works perfectly).
You can burn the english-patched copy of the game to a disc and play it with CFW, or play the game as an ISO/BIN file directly if using a dongle, so that doesn't really matter.
The only real advantage of the PC emulators for PS1/PS2 is the ability to enhance the visuals. This really isn't worth the much lower compatibility rate and hassle that comes with it, though. You also need a fairly good graphic card on your PC to be able to run a PS2 emulator with decent performance.

1 mayor retained, 1 newly elected
A new mayor takes office in West Kittanning on Jan. 1, and voters in Kittanning re-elected an incumbent.
West Kittanning
Republican James W. Sobiski clinched the office by receiving 254 votes in Tuesday's election, defeating Democrat Michael Holly, 40, who received 77 votes, according to unofficial results.
Voters cast 28 write-in votes during the election.
During the primary, Sobiski defeated incumbent Mayor Bernie Bowser Jr. to become the Republican candidate.
In his first order of business, Sobiski said he plans to begin investigating a potential contract with Kittanning police, to provide 24-7 coverage, and abolishing the borough's current police department, which is made up of two part-time officers.
During the 2011 general election, 65.27 percent of voters responded yes to the ballot question asking if they favored the borough's contracting with Kittanning for police coverage. Results showed 250 voted yes and 133 voted no.
The referendum is not binding on borough council, and no further action has been taken since, Sobiski said.
"I won't be in there until the first of the year, but hopefully it won't be much longer after that," Sobiski said. "I'm going to push it, but I still have council to go through."
Sobiski, a former councilman, said he would like to see the borough's government be more open and transparent in its actions.
"We need to make sure council listens to the people, and when they ask a question, give an honest answer," Sobiski said.
Also in West Kittanning, Democratic newcomer Robert Venesky received 237 votes, followed by incumbent Republican Paula Henry with 177 votes. Newcomer Henry Mores, a Democrat, earned the third seat on council, after he received 175 votes.
Incumbent Republicans Michele Cogley and Bernie Bowser received 133 and 127 votes, respectively, which was not enough to earn them another term on council.
Holly received 125 votes in the council race, which was not enough to earn him a seat on the board.
Republican Linda Olinger ran unopposed to become the borough's tax collector.
Voters elected Kittanning's mayor, Kirk Atwood, 28, to a second term in office on Tuesday.
Atwood, a Republican, received 397 votes, defeating Democrat Sandra Lee Bauer, who secured 276 votes, according to unofficial election results. Voters cast 14 write-in votes on Tuesday.
"I'm honored the voters saw fit for me to have another four years in office," Atwood said. "I'm unhappy with council's current direction, and I'm going to attempt to put the brakes on what is happening.
"There is a lot on the table."
Atwood said the borough must remain focused on financial solvency, and make sure to avoid all excessive and potentially wasteful spending.
He plans to work with council to revaluate purchasing a police dog, which he opposes.
In addition, Atwood hopes to find ways to reduce taxes.
"Our taxes are at 27.5 mills, which is very high," Atwood said. "We need to work to get taxes lowered to a reasonable level."

Officials react to Measure L loss
By: Bridget Jones, Journal Staff Writer
Funding plan necessary, trustee says
Supporters of the now-defunct Measure L are voicing their concerns after the ballot item failed to gather the two-thirds vote it needed. Measure L would have been an annual $59 tax for property owners to bring in $4 million for the Auburn Union School District over five years. The measure needed more than 66 percent of the vote to pass. According to the Placer County Office of Elections the final Election Night vote count was 6,006 votes for Measure L and 5,078 votes against the measure. This gave Measure L 54.19 percent of the vote. Rob Haswell, chairman of the Citizens for a Stronger Auburn Yes on L, said even with the loss, he felt the campaign was well managed. "First of all, I would say I'm proud of the campaign we ran," Haswell said. "We put together a strong message and did our best to put together a case for the community. It was just a very tough climate. It's unfortunate, but we worked hard and talked to thousands of voters, and it just wasn't enough. Obviously two-thirds was always going to be a tough number." Haswell said he thinks the loss of the measure will have a strong impact on Auburn. "I'm obviously extremely worried for the schools and community in the coming years," he said. "The board and the staff have to look at their budget, and they have to get it to work. They have obviously got to make do without this as a possibility." Trustee Daniel Berlant said the budget is in crisis and the district has cut everything it possibly can, including administration salaries. "Obviously, we are just one day after the election, and it's very sad for us for it not to pass," Berlant said. "We have to continue to look for other ways to fund the very basic education." Berlant said the way things are going, by fiscal year 2013 the district will no longer be able to pay its basic bills and the state would have to take over. "That is not a viable answer for Auburn," he said. "We are going to have to come together … and come up with a solution. We are down to the bare minimum of our expenses, so we have to do something to continue to fund Auburn Union. The state has made the decision to take the money that is made for our schools in Auburn and not give it to us." Taxpayer Advocate Dan Sokol, who ran for Auburn City Council and opposed Measure L, said he doesn't think the two-thirds vote required to pass the parcel tax was too high. "It should be something more than majority, and whether 66 (percent) … is too high a hurdle, I don't know," Sokol said. "I don't think under any reasonable hurdle it would have passed." Sokol said he is concerned about the financial state of the district, but feels that money could be better managed. "I agree they need more money, but I just don't think a parcel tax was the way to get it," Sokol said. "I think there has been enough waste in the district, (and without it) they wouldn't be in as sad of shape. A lot of the hurting is spending for the wrong items and misspending." Douglas Crancer, assistant superintendent of business and facilities at the district, said the spirit that went into the campaign was uplifting. "I'm really happy on how the campaign was put together," Crancer said. "It just kind of brought out the good of the community. (The measure) got a majority of the voters. Unfortunately, it wasn't the super-majority of the voters." Several commenters on the Nov. 2 "Measure L voted down" article on AuburnJournal.com have mentioned they would be interested in donating money to the district. Crancer said the district would set up a restricted account for any funds donated, so the money would go toward what community members wanted it to. "We can always accept donations," Crancer said. "In terms of levying … money, parcel taxes are the only way to go." Crancer said fundraisers are also a possibility, but district staff and the board would have to decide on any specific plans. Haswell said past fundraisers haven't brought in anywhere near the $4 million the tax would have. "They haven't been able to fundraise on the level we are talking about here," he said. "I worry about our future from an educational standpoint." Reach Bridget Jones at firstname.lastname@example.com

Ivanka Trump Having a Baby Girl: 5 Baby Name Suggestionsshellthings
Ivanka Trump is having a baby girl, due on July 14th. The stylish first-time mom has opened up about her pregnancy, but there is no word yet on what baby names she is considering.
Since we know celebs tend to choose bizarre baby names- they apparently didn't read my Open Letter to Celeb Moms-to-be on baby naming advice– we thought we'd make some baby name suggestions for Ivanka Trump. Ivanka might want to stay with traditional names, or names with family meaning:
1. Ilana: Ivana, Ivanka, and then Ilana. It's like the female version of putting a "Junior" or "IV" after your son's name.
2. Donna: as a nod to her father. Maybe even spelled Dona, which would be a little unusual, but not like naming your child Moroccan.
3. Marie/Maria: Ivanka's middle name is Marie.
4. Johanna: The Donald's middle name is John.
5. Odelia: it means "little wealthy ruler" and let's face it, that would describe this little baby girl!
Do you think Ivanka will pick a traditional baby name? Or will she go with the celeb trend of choosing an unusual baby name?

If they aren't scratched, the used softars are just as good as new ones. Probably "better" than the Lee equivalent, especially at 4x+ the price.
Though for a soft focus attachment, I'm not sure how you would judge which is better optically. It would really come down to which one gives you the most pleasing fuzzy result.
As for other types of filters, I'd be surprised if the Lees are better, but they may not be that much worse, if they were, they wouldn't sell so well.
Since you already have an investment in the Lee system you're probably better off to continue working with it, and you will easily be able to switch them between systems. If you need a particular filter, like the softar, that you can get at a good price buy that if it's something you can easily dedicate to the Hasselblad.
The Softar wouldn't preclude you from adding a Lee in front of it, if you needed to, though there would be some risk of vignetting.

I was surprised as anyone when Gettysburg National Military Park sent a press release that included news the president isn't coming to speak Nov. 19 for the 150th anniversary of Lincoln's famous speech, the Gettysburg Address.
I have no idea why the president decided not to come. Maybe I should have sent him that editorial on why he's the most appropriate speaker, the reporter returning from Gettysburg suggested. I don't flatter myself the president has time to read this column, and surely he's keenly aware of Gettysburg's symbolic propriety. Surely he has a couple of minutes for a few appropriate remarks.
A few social-media commenters suggested Obama wouldn't dare show his face after the recent park closure. But believe it or not, there are plenty of Democrats around Gettysburg who were pretty pumped about the president's possible visit.
Still, maybe I'm glad the president won't be coming, after all.
There's really no need for speeches or special anniversaries to honor Gettysburg. Lincoln's point, I believe, was that it didn't matter who spoke, and that even the devotion of the fallen might be for naught. It is up to us, the living, to give meaning to their sacrifice, Lincoln suggested, for we are all soldiers in the fight for human freedom.
That, I believe, is why Lincoln's remarks on that sanguine field still seem so appropriate today, why they still resonate across those Pennsylvania graves to people the world over.
Besides, it's not fair to the hard-working park staff to make Dedication Day about Obama or a government closure that certainly wasn't their fault. They, too, are soldiers in Lincoln's larger sense. Part of the story of Gettysburg is the magnificent job they've done preserving this most-hallowed American ground. That's the Gettysburg I celebrate this month.
I always take vacation around Dedication Day and spend a week with a close friend, a Civil War and Lincoln scholar, walking battlefields from here to Richmond. Boots on the ground by daybreak sort of stuff, with lots of maps, books (and these days, apps) to help us grasp the tactical minutia of war. We're motivated by the innocent boyhood thrill for soldiering, of course. But there's also a sincere and humbling effort to understand what motivates human beings to endure the terrible beauty of battle.
By Nov. 19, we're almost always back at the Soldiers' National Cemetery in Gettysburg, where I think every tour of battlefields should end.
The big fanfare and speeches and weekend Remembrance Parade seem pretty incidental by then. It's the small and quiet ceremonies that move me to thoughts of Gettysburg's greater meaning:
The locals who quietly light the dark cemetery in luminaries.
A lone bugler's mournful Taps in the shadows.
The families who come to pay private respect to a fallen ancestor.
The citizens who gather at the historical African American Lincoln Cemetery in town each year to remember other forgotten stories.
The world will not long remember, I suspect, whether this president rose to Lincoln's challenge to clear the still-smoky air at Gettysburg, to transcend the bitter struggles that still divide us.
That unfinished work belongs to no speaker, but to all of us as we soldier on.

November 26, 2015
Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan says the economy can adjust to rising oil prices, as long as they don't spiral much higher.
In remarks prepared for the National Italian American Foundation, Greenspan says the surge in energy costs will have far less of an impact on the economy than the shocks of the past. He says trouble would brew if energy prices continue to rise.
He predicts that there will be more exploration and production and increased fuel efficiency.
Crude oil futures have been trading at record levels lately. After adjusting for inflation, however, Greenspan says they're only about three-fifths as high as the peak seen in 1981.

Overall I thought this was a solid clay mask. I felt like it pulled out a lot of gunk and oils in my face without leaving it too dry or tight. I didn't mind the smell, but I really disliked the sharp bits that I think were meant to physically exfoliate your face.

I am a total facial mask whore. Make that high end facial mask whore. Eve Lom's mask beats out every other mask. I am very impressed with this lady and what she has produced. Rescue mask deep cleans your pores like no other, and makes your skin velvety soft and glowy. I use this when I want to look my very very best.

I really like this product. It does make a difference and will defiantly calm down skin, help clear spots, tighten pores and give your skin a general cleanse.
It's one worth having in your routine.

This product is a complete waste of time.
I tried it because I had heard that it was fantastic, well for me it was the complete opposite.
Firstly, the smell was terrible.
Second, way too expensive.
Thirdly, It didn't do a thing! NOTHING!!!
I do not recommend this product at all. It's just an overall bad experience. It left my skin feeling dry and really red!!!

I have sensitive oily skin which is prone to the odd breakout around my menstrual cycle. I was highly advised to buy the mask by the Space NK sales assistant as she said it would help dry up any break outs.
Apart from the horrible smell and consistency this stuff really messed up my skin. I had a terrible allergic reaction and my skin the next day was 10 time worse in terms of break outs. If you have sensitive, breakout prone skin do not use this. It may be good if you skin is not sensitive. It is insanely expensive as well. Not a good product at all for me.

This stuff is great. Used after a good steam and massage with the Eve Lom cleanser, it's a magnet for blackheads and leaves my skin radiant. I sometimes lay a wet paper towel over the mask on my face so that it can work without drying my skin.

Love this face mask! I have troubled skin at times and this does a great job to decrease spot size and redness. I use it at night time before bed, wash off and follow my usual skin care routine afterwards and by the morning my skin always looks alot better. I agree that it is an extortionate price for the amount you get, so I just save it for when my skin is bad. I think it was �35 for 50ml. The smell is not great though, it is an overpowering camphor smell but you get used to it after a while. It can feel a bit tingly when you first use it. I wouldn't recommend it to those with broken skin or sensitive skin as it may feel like it's burning (I used it on broken skin once... ouch). I told all my friends to use this when they have problems with spots and they all agree that it does seem to work wonders.

Okay so I tried this out a a mask, it is an oka product but incredibly over priced for a clay mask, so it went to the back of my cupboard for a few months to save for those 'special occasions' after all it was pricey! However last week I had an unfortunate zit come up and was out of my usual sudocrem and decided to give this a try. Left it just on the zit in question overnight, by the morning it was gone! So glad I gave this another chance! Great for those little emergencies!

I love the Eve Lom morning and night cleansers...but this mask just felt like a basic clay mask...the camphor seems to make it extra drying. Its ok..but doesn't give my skin the radiance that the cleansers in the range do. Its nice, but I don't personally think its worth the money.

In reply to SWD's post
quote "First off all, any synthetic pesticide, be it a fertilizer, herbicide or insecticide, has a risk associated with it." should read First off all, any pesticide, be it synthetic or organic, fertilizer, herbicide or insecticide, has a risk associated with it. A pesticide by definition kills. If it didn't there would be no point in using it.
quote "Second, regardless if it is a organophosphate or carbamate based insecticide, all are cancerous/lethal and the ones with the most severe side effects are the fungicides, due to repeated/prolonged exposure." should read
Second, regardless if it is a organophosphate, carbamate or organic based insecticide, most are cancerous and all are lethal and can have severe side effects due to repeated/prolonged exposure.
The rest is right on. Protect yourself and use the material wisely. Everyday we use things that pose far greater risks without even thinking about it.
I suppose pendamethlin would be my first choice. Of all the herb/pest I use I use this one the most - 25 gallons of concentrate. It gives me the most prolonged and repeated exposures. Even though I use the the PPE, I can still smell it on me when I go into the shower at the end of the day.
Anything rated "danger" and skull/cross-bones
The only one I have that has a skull and crossbones is Zinc, for rodent control. It's pure Zinc not the stuff that's rtu. I rarely open that can because it has a secondary kill. The times it's used are when nothing else will work, like when rodents have been feeding on dog food (vitamin k1, antidote).
Against insects I use disease-causing nematodes. These little guys carry a bacteria that is lethal to insect larvae but not to mammals, birds, or fish. Fire ants, fleas and grubs are the main targets for beneficial nematodes.
I'm not saying that any of this is practical for y'all, but to say it is all dangerous is somewhat misleading.
I will use anything that has an EPA registration number.
I get a colonesterase (sp) test done every year at the end of the season. No problems.....
Pesticides are as safe as the person using them. Once mixed properly in a dilution they are often less harmfull than taking an
aspirin or drinking a cup of coffee. This is no excuse for carelessness. Dress properly and take the proper safety precautions while mixing! This is where you are at your greatest exposure! Some of the low volume and boom applications also put you at risk.
If you practice an IPM approach to services which require pesticides, you use less and reduce your exposure.
P.S. Even though they are probably no riskier than any other product I always hated spraying Dursban, Orthene and Malathion, mainly because of the smell.
Not all insects are harmful and many are beneficial. Your nematodes quite often kill the beneficial larvae as well as the target pest. This is a risk.
The same is true for different types of fungus.
Don't be mislead by the fact that just because you can eat it, it won't cause any harm. Check out the LD50 of table salt. Or the research into the good fats and bad fats in your diet. How about alcohol poisoning. These are all natural products that can definitely be harmful. I am not against organics. They just arn't the panacea that they seem to be.
A very natural product for pest control is nicotine. Old time gardeners use to make their own spray by soaking their butts in water. Later it became a commercial spray. Even later it was banned as a pest control product because it was to dangerous!
Now the "organic books" suggest soaking tobacco in water to make a "safe" natural spray. It scares me that the naturalists use all sorts of "safe" sprays that have never been thoroughly tested and can be very dangerous. Using salt to kill weeds? I shudder to think what that does to the environment. Hot water steam machines to kill weeds. They use 2 gallons of gasoline, to run the pumps, 5 gallons of kerosene to run the burners and a man working for 4 hours to achieve 50% of the effectiveness of 1 man with a backpack sprayer and 3 ounces of roundup that takes 1/2 hour to spray. I ask which is better for the environment?
Organics can work very well in the correct circumstances. Unfortunately those circumstances are very rare in the real world.
I looked very closely at using a Beet extract for weed control last year. (used the same principal as corn gluten. After analyzing the facts as presented it just didn't make any sense. One spray of Killex would cost 60.00 in material and give me an 85% kill rate of weeds. The same results were not achievable with the beet extract. The manufacture claimed a 35% kill rate after 3 treatments. The cost 3600.00 in materials plus 3 times the labour. The interesting part is that they claimed the beet extract was 11 times less toxic than 24d. And it is.....in there pure forms. But when applied as directed at the recommended application rates the beet extract was actually much more toxic as applied because you need 40 times the amount of material applied 3 tiimes!
I am serious about my horticulture and I try new ways of doing things all the time. Mechanical, natural or synthetic. Some things work, some don't. But one thing I have learned is that it is better to be sceptical about everything and try it for yourself in the real world.
And I have found the organic movement to be highly overrated with very exaggerated claims.
So far in every side by side comparison that I have made the synthetics have outperformed the organics 90% of the time.
Also all of the synthetics have been well tested and are approved by the government. Most of the organics have not and the legality of using an unregesterd product must also be considered.
Dan, you're right on. A balanced approach using all available means is the best way to go. And I always wondered what those farmers were doing with their coveralls down, sitting in buckets. Now I know!

We know who should star in the next remake of The Parent Trap!
Neither Ryan Gosling nor Ryan Gosling looks any the worse for wear on the cover of Esquire's September issue, which also includes a photo spread featuring two images of the actor in almost ever shot.
Why the graphic trickery? For starters, it was Gosling's idea.
MORE: Carey Mulligan talks falling in love with Drive costar Ryan Gosling
Egomaniac, much? Hardly.
"I think I was always bound to become two selves, if I wasn't already," the Crazy, Stupid, Love star told the mag. "Now there's this me, this public me, and I know that I have become two people. This is what I told the photographer before he took those photographs. Even my own name sounds like just someone I know."
Apparently, the 30-year-old former Oscar nominee is still getting used to the fact that people all over the place know who he is. And even if they don't, they still know him from somewhere...
"It's like being in a dream," the actor says. "You don't know anybody, but everybody knows you, everybody reacts to you. You can be walking along in a dream, through a pretty normal world, and then bam, everything seems to be a response to your presence. Everything seems to be driven by you. And that's notable at first, and you deal with it. And then—and it happens every time—you become aware it's a dream.
"Right about then, when you think you have it figured and that acknowledging that will make it easier, it inevitably becomes a nightmare."
Surely stardom isn't always as awful as Gosling is making it out to be, right?
Well, maybe it is, but at least the 30-year-old heartthrob has plenty of money to indulge in one of his all-time favorite things.
"Sometimes I think that the one thing I love most about being an adult is the right to buy candy whenever and wherever I want," he concluded.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Jubilee Park & Community Center, Dallas, TX, USA
My experience with the Jubilee Center has shown me that I can be an educator towards the young children that will soon be the future of accountants, construction workers, teachers, etc. Jubilee has provided the exercise for me mentally to focus on constructive teaching and behavior modifacation towards children. The Jubilee Center is a tree that branches off and helps families and the community and many different ways. For example, school supplies for children, after school well placed meals to keep their young minds and bodies energized after a long day of school. The Jubilee Center also helps the community out economically with utilities. This also includes the childrens families that attend the Center.
