WALLA WALLA - In spite of a $114,00 show of support from the community, funding for the Pioneer Park Aviary was again dropped for the preliminary 2013/2014 biennial budget.
Two years ago, the aviary was dropped from the 2011/2012 biennial budget. But after a strong public outcry, city officials agreed to keep the facility open if supporters could raise $110,000 to operate it for two years.
On July 16, at a crowded City Council work session with roughly two dozen supporters, Friends of the Pioneer Park Aviary presented the city a check for $114,00 to cover aviary operating costs for 2011 and 2012.
Though the community showed its support, Parks and Recreation Director Jim Dumont said he is still not funding the aviary for the next two years because of budget cuts that leave no room for additional programs. Though he added that could change.
"The aviary funding issue is not decided, and I expect it will not be determined until late in the budget process. The Advisory Board will have an opportunity to look at our services and determine once again the priority for our program services," Dumont said.
In 2012, with all city departments facing cuts of roughly 5-10 percent, the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board put the aviary at the bottom of the department's priority list, which led to a cut of all funding for the aviary.
Recent interviews with three Advisory Board members showed that all three are considering moving the aviary up in priority.
One of those interviewed included Lenore Barkan, a member of the 2010 Advisory Board that put the aviary at the bottom of the priority list.
"My own view is that the Parks Board is a public body and it should, to the best of its ability, do what the public wants because it is the public's servant. And I think the public has spoken clearly in this matter. There is a lot of support for the aviary," Barkan said.
She added that if the aviary is to be funded, the money should come from another part of the city's general fund other than the already strapped Parks and Recreation budget.
The recent show of support and presentation of the check has some City Council members considering if funding should occur.
"It is definitely going to be something that we are going to be talking about because raising $114,000 is no small thing," Council member Chris Plucker said.
Dumont said he will meet with the city manager this week to review his department's preliminary budget.
City Council will have the final decision on whether to fund the aviary.

As of Thursday, January 2, 2014
© Copyright 2015 Albany Herald
ALBANY — One week before the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, more than 150,000 American volunteers who shared a love for aviation and a concern for the defense of the country's coastline successfully lobbied for the right to form the Civil Air Patrol.
Spearheaded by three-time New York Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia and under the jurisdiction of the Army Air Force, Civil Air Patrol pilots — generally men and women who were physically unable or deemed too old to fight in World War II — flew more than 500,000 hours, were credited with sinking two German U-boats and were involved in the rescue of hundreds of wartime crash survivors.
Wing Cmdr. George Winship Nunnally, whose family founded the Atlanta-based Nunnally Candy Co. and later became a part of the vast Coca-Cola empire, guided the first Georgia CAP squadron, which was formed in Albany less than a month after the organization was officially sanctioned nationally. And in the 72 years since the establishment of the GA002 squadron, hundreds of area volunteers have served as homeland protectors in times of war and peace.
The proud tradition of the Albany Civil Air Patrol squadron, officially named the Albany Composite Squadron, is embodied in Cadet Noah Kimsey, who will receive the prestigious General Billy Mitchell Award Tuesday in a 7 p.m. ceremony at Southwest Georgia Regional Airport during the squadron's regular weekly meeting.
"This is such a huge honor and it opens up all kind of opportunities for me," Kimsey, 15, said Thursday afternoon. "It feels good to know what we're doing in CAP can contribute to our community. It's pretty cool to feel that you can make a difference."
The award winner, who is homeschooled, has been a part of the Albany Civil Air Patrol squadron for the past year and a half.
"I had a friend who was involved, plus I was interested in the military," Kimsey said. "I want to keep my options open, but if I decide on a military career, this is certainly going to prove beneficial. It's good to know that I've committed to something that can impact my future in a good way and can have a positive impact on my community."
As recipient of the Mitchell award, Kimsey will be promoted to Cadet 2nd Lieutenant, a milestone achieved by less than 10 percent of the CAP's 25,000 cadets nationwide. Kimsey also will be eligible for advanced placement to airman first class if he decides to join the U.S. Air Force.
"Cadet Kimsey is a qualified ground search and rescue team member who has participated in a number of actual training missions to locate downed aircraft," retired Marine Lt. Col. Greg Frich, the deputy commander of cadets for the Albany Composite Squadron, said. "He has been trained in use of VHF and HF communications equipment, first aid and CPR, FEMA emergency management procedures, land survival skills, search techniques, rappelling and operational risk management. He has participated in four orientation flights in the cockpit of Civil Air Patrol search and rescue aircraft and several state-level summer encampments.
"This young man serves as a fine example for all our cadets," Frich said.
Under the guidance of Frich, squadron commander Lt. Col Fred Broome and assistant deputy commander of cadets 2nd Lt. Henry Kim, the Albany Composite Squadron has seen a dramatic recent increase in membership. Cadet Lt. Col. Frederick Broome, a Marine Corps reservist with Smyrna-based Bravo Company, 4th Reconnaissance Battalion and a recent graduate of Marine boot camp, noted the changes at a recent squadron meeting.
"When I joined (in 2009), there were three cadets in the local squadron," said Broome, noting that there are now 29 cadets and 17 senior members of the Albany Composite Squadron. "Interest has just taken off lately. I was gone for 10 months (for boot camp), and when I came back I didn't know half of the cadets in the squadron."
Kim, who teaches physical science and graphic design at the Baconton Charter School, said he got involved with the program because of his passion for working with young people.
"The focus of our program is to build young leaders, and we are fortunate to have a group of cadets who are eager to learn," Kim said. "They're growing as individuals, and that's important to their future. As a teacher, I'm well aware that most students these days tend to do nothing. Our cadets are active, they're learning important skills that will help them become our future leaders."
As a "composite" squadron, the Albany unit includes both cadets (usually ages 12 to 18) and senior members (18 and above). Other squadrons include senior- and cadet-only participants. More than 25,000 cadets and 34,000 senior members are part of the national CAP program, which has squadrons in all states and is credited with saving an average of 100 lives a year.
The Albany squadron, which trains its cadets in military leadership, aerospace education, physical fitness, emergency services and character development, has members from Tifton, Cordele, Edison, Newton, Americus Leesburg and Albany. Two of the Tifton members are pilots, which has allowed for more flight education.
"Civil Air Patrol has three primary missions," Jim Shaw, CAP's national assistant chief of safety education and training, said. "We concentrate on cadet programs, aerospace education and emergency services. We utilize a 16-step program to teach progressive skills that will benefit cadets in all aspects of their lives."
Frich points out "real-world" application of these skills.
"Last year, if you'll recall, a plane went down in Tifton," he said. "Members of our squadron helped with the sector search. They didn't actually locate the crash victim, but they were a vital part of the search effort."
Frich, who currently serves as a member of the Lee County Commission, said he's proud to have two sons and a daughter participating in the CAP program.
"I'm so impressed with the ethos of this organization," he said. "It strengthens not only the young people who take part in it, it also strengthens our communities. It's really amazing to see these young people from different backgrounds — young men and women with urban and rural experiences — working together toward common goals.
"No CAP cadet is obligated to serve in the military; I see this as more of a community service organization. The emphasis is not on the military but on helping young people realize their leadership potential and become responsible citizens."

BeautyLogic's New obsession-Suki Lemongrass/Sugar Exfoliator.
First of all Lemongrass is known for working wonders on skin because it's loaded with the powerful antioxidant vitamin C which is also a great skin exfoliant. When I was a teenager and suffering from severe acne, mommy would make me drink lemongrass tea every day. This also contains sugar! Sugar of course contains natural glycolic acid, which is a another fab exfoliant. I can't stress how important exfoliation is for your skin care regimen and your fight against aging. (FYI, Yesterday, my theater teacher thought I was twenty-one, Yippee!!!). Everyday, your skin is exposed to so many toxins and pollutants. A great exfoliator will help remove that exposed layer, and reveal your wonderful new skin. Exfoliation is great if you suffer from hyper pigmentation as well. It will help clear up those marks a lot faster. I don't recommend exfoliating every day but twice or three times a week is sufficient.
When I opened Suki's Lemongrass/Sugar exfoliator the first thing I noticed was the delicious aroma of lemons. I then took about a dime size of the product and began applying using gentle circular motions on my face. Now the first day I used this, I had come from taking my headshots so my skin was packed with make-up (reporters need to take headshots). With one application of this, my make-up was completely removed. The granules are not harsh and my skin was not left overly red or irritated. After I used it, I noticed that my skin was left so soft with a gorgeous glow! I also used this after i self tan, and it's fabulous for removing tanning cream that has gotten on your fingertips. I love the fact that this product is completely vegan and that the owner Suki wants to make a perfect skincare line with 100% natural ingredients. Mommy's been using this too and she's obsessed.
Have you tried Suki Products before?
What do you use as a great exfoliant?

I was reading about Suki on another blog I think last week. This sounds great...but question...I recall you mentioned that you were using Clarisonic...I just bought one and have been using it for about a week and I really like it but I'm getting used to it as well...just wondering since the Clarisonic already exfoliates the skin on the face will it be too harsh for me to exfoliate with a product similar to the Suki Lemongrass Sugar Exfoliator? Just curious on what you think.
Headshots? NIICE good luck with everything Ms. Future Reporter Taking Over the World! :)

Hey Bona, isn't the clarisonic fantastic! I love it. I would definitly not use the Clarisonic after/before using Suki. What I've been doing is using the Clarisonic one week and the suki the next-changing it up. And thanks for the reporting accolades. I hope it works out. Hugs, DE

Suki is the truth. I only use it once a week as my facial exfoliator, it's gentle enough for everyday but I don't need that kind of exfoliation.

I'm pretty certain my lathe, with 16 TPI lead screw, can do this if I have the right gears (or order some inexpensive spares) for the change gear train. If I haven't bent my brain, I'd need 50:20 compounded to 50:80, but I don't think the original change gear set includes two 50 tooth gears. It'd be dead simple on a larger lathe with the very common 10 TPI screw, if it's got manual change gears, just a 20:50 or equivalent pair and enough no-change to complete the train.Quote:

Since 25 TPI isn't a standard thread, it's not found in most QC boxes.
The most modern of the small lathes have "electronic lead screws" using shaft encoders on the spindle, counter/divider systems, and stepper motors driving the lead screw, to cut any thread, either metric or inch, that you can specify -- right or left hand, front or rear tool post, inside or outside. Need to cut a 28.6 tpi to match some bizarre non-metric thread found on something? No problem...
Donald..........never seen or heard of these.........anywhere on the net I can see one?Quote:

If you take the decimal equivilent of 25TPI (1/25 = .04), it is nearly the same as a 1.0M pitch (1.0/25.4 = .0394"). Granted, it is best to use the right thread. And as Donald pointed out, there are lathes today which use the "electronic lead screws" which make machining the right threads a dream.

I can't ever remember coming across a 25 T.P.I. thread. I wonder,Quote:

2) Is it possible that the thread in question had something other than a 60 degree National/ Metric form? I don't know ... but it might have been something like a Whitworth (55 degree rounded) or Lowenhertz 53 degrees, 30 minutes; or -- or Dardelet Self-Locking ... or ..... I don't know what the "standard" pitches were for those.
Yes I thought of that one, would work like you say if the thread was cut loose and was very short.Quote:

I had to do the math on my change gears in order to turn 25 tpi. Almost all lathes with screwcutting ability can be used to make oddball threads that are not listed on the change gear charts. It is a matter of fractions. If you have a 16 tpi leadscrew then the fraction is 16/25 or .64 turns of the leadscrew for each turn of the spindle. Not many 16 tooth change gears out there, so multiply the fraction by two to get 32/50. Those gears I have. Engage a 32 tooth gear with the bull gear on the spindle and slap a 50 on the end of the leadscrew. Use an idler gear of any size to hook them together and you have 25tpi. You can get some really odd pitches this way. Just remember that gear ratios are merely fractions, maintain the relationship between the numerator and denominator and you will be fine. This also works with compound gearing which is where you can get some incredibly odd pitches. How about 114.6 tpi? Hmmm??? Multiply the possibilities immensely if you have a quick change gearbox on the leadscrew.
For an excellent dissertation on figuring out your own change gear combos, I recommend Using the Small Lathe by L.C. Mason. It is published by Tee Publications in England

Here's another of my fairy tutus with pretty petal design – this time it's a baby blue and white tutu with a few sparkly silver and sequinned white shimmery strands to make it extra special!
Please have a look at my website www.TutusWingsandPrettyThings.com if you'd like to get one of these sky-blue fairy tutus for yourself!
I am so pleased to say that one of my new range of fashion tulle skirts has been included on The Wardrobe Challenge blog
I love fashion writer Hanna's blog because I enjoy seeing how she styles her outfits and it's great to see someone doing it for all the curvy girls! She got in touch with me last month to discuss what kind of skirt she wanted and sent me lots of photos of other similar skirts so that I could get an idea of the kind of outfit she was after. This was a new experience for me because, although I've made 100s of tutus, skirts and fancy dress costumes, this is the first time I've made a 'fashion' skirt and I didn't know how it would turn out.
After a lot of discussions about the type of fabric, colours and style, between us we came up with a sheer grey layered design with contrasting black underskirt and waistband. Hanna is new to über-girliness and didn't want anything too OTT straight away; "I was always a tomboy as a kid, and a teen, and a young adult, and a not so young adult.. haha. Basically I've only started to embrace all things girly during the past few years, and lately I have been dying to get my hands on a tulle skirt – which is the last thing that the young me would have worn". Thankfully, she emailed me straight away to tell me that she loved the skirt and would be blogging about it, fantastic news! I've since made a few more of these skirts and will be adding the new range to my website soon at www.TutusWingsandPrettyThings.com in a whole range of sizes, lengths and colours.
Here's the link to The Wardrobe Challenge's Outfit Of The Day blog post and more photos of Hanna styling-up her tulle skirt as a 'Punky Princess'. I think she looks fantastic, and while you're on her blog, click around to see her other OOTD posts for inspiration for your own outfits.
Now, I'm not someone who is keen on camping. For a start, I don't like being that close to bugs. And I hate getting dirty or wet. And I really dislike getting a crick in my neck when sleeping anywhere other than my own bed. Yet often when I go camping, all of the above happen. So is it really worthwhile going camping at all?
If you'd seen these gorgeous glamourous camping bell-tents you'd definitely be answering yes! I saw these "glamping" experience tents at an event at Jimmy's Farm recently and I could not believe how gorgeous they were – inside and out! The tents were warm and dry, with everything you'd need for a fantastic retreat-like holiday – serious kitchen equipment, a proper double bed and even a bottle of champagne… now that's the kind of camping I like! I had to take these photos to share with you because the tents just looked so gorgeous and exactly like the kind of place a fairy would camp! It's certainly changed my mind about camping, and now I want a bell tent of my own :)
All my handmade fairy tutus – for children and adults – are discounted throughout June! Special offer also includes custom-made fairy tutus – create your own designs in any combination of colours, fabrics and styles!
Check it out now www.TutusWingsandPrettyThings.com and order your handmade tutu ready for summer!
I've just heard on Radio 2 that today is International Tiara Day!
After a quick Google I've found out that this is the 2nd Annual Tiara Day from 'The Secret Order of the Tiara' and it aims to mobilizing women around the world to embrace and celebrate their powers of leadership in their own lives; "International Tiara Day celebrates women everywhere who have struggled to find their own path to success and have made it. It encourages women to listen to their heart and create the life they want. Real or virtual tiara-wearing is optional."
International Tiara day also celebrates the launch of the group's first book, Become Your Own Great & Powerful: A Woman's Guide to Leading Your Real, Big Life. That sounds like a must-read to me… Amazon here I come!
Check out their homepage http://www.seasonsofsuccess.com/tiaraday.html where you can download printable tiaras and become a member!
I can't believe that I've nearly missed my chance to legitimately wear a tiara all day (and be a princess like Kate Middleton and Diana)! Now where's my tiny crown..?
Look at this lovely photo of a pair of fairies playing in the garden, having a fairy tea party – complete with toadstool cupcakes. SO cute!
Get these gorgeous little pettiskirt tutus for your own little angels (available in child and adult sizes) from www.Cassiefairy.co.uk – new range and colours now available!

The big story in Bethel this week is a visit from an NBA All-Star. High school students will go to classes Friday under the supervision of celebrity principal James Harden, star of the Houston Rockets -- their reward for winning a national college-preparatory contest, and their persistence in pursuing the prize even after the contest had been won.
Kids have been buzzing and tweeting about the visit for weeks. Harden, a 6-foot-5, 220-pound guard with basketball's most famous beard, will spend the morning at Bethel Regional High School, a place where basketball rules.
Bethel Regional High School is also a place that was called a dropout factory in a widely reported 2007 statistical analysis by Johns Hopkins University. The label was given to schools where 60 percent or fewer students make it to their senior year, and hearing it applied to Bethel stung, remembers the woman who was a first-year principal when the report came out.
"Ouch," Janelle Vanasse, who is still the principal, recalled this week. "I remember I was just like, wow, how is this research being done? What is the purpose of naming these schools?"
Six years later, Vanasse said, Bethel's four-year graduation rate is around 65 percent. Its five-year graduation rate -- a statistic the state recently began to track, showing what percentage of kids graduate after five years of high school -- is more than 70 percent.
In its effort to improve graduation rates, the school put an emphasis on pushing students to set goals beyond high school. And so when the non-profit Get Schooled organization -- whose partners include MTV -- held a 14-week national Future Forward Challenge contest early this year to see which school could get the most students to participate in college preparatory tasks, including filling out applications for student aid, Bethel's student body was primed for the task.
Bethel not only won the contest, it dominated. More than 60 percent of the Class of 2013 completed financial aid applications, compared to the national average of 40 percent, according to Get Schooled. And more than 80 percent applied to colleges or other post-secondary education programs, and more than half are in college this fall, said Vanasse, an educator in Bethel for 18 years.
This week, the one-time dropout factory has been basking in its own glow. On Thursday, there was a visit from Taco Bell executives and an assembly featuring DJ Dallas Green. On Friday, Harden will temporarily and symbolically replace Vanasse as principal.
"Everybody is excited to get to meet an NBA player," said sophomore Ethan Forbes, who was part of the student government-led effort to get kids to participate in the contest. "You can tell everyone's excited about it."
But there's more. The students learned Thursday afternoon that another celebrity will join Harden in Bethel -- rapper Kendrick Lamar, who they virtually know already.
'Every student with a goal...'
The Future Forward Challenge ran from January to March, and Bethel students used the power of Twitter, and persistence, to triumph.
The contest challenged students to participate in Twitter town halls with college admission experts, to play educational-themed games and to fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA.
"We said, 'We'll give it a shot,' '' said Ethan Blevins, another sophomore involved in student government. "Once we saw we were doing very well in the first week, we just took it on."
Standings were updated frequently online, so Bethel students were able to see right away that they were among the leaders. Their enthusiasm increased as they pulled away from the other schools, about 400 in all; a California academy known for its academics was also among the early leaders.
"It wasn't that difficult," junior Conrad McCormick said. "It just took a lot of persistence and repetition. We went to every single class. With the news of a celebrity visitor, people became more and more willing to participate in these challenges."
Even without the lure of a celebrity visitor, many Bethel students have bought into the idea of education after high school.
After being branded a dropout factory, "our vision became: every student with a goal, and the skills, confidence and knowledge to pursue it," Vanasse said. "We've doubled the number of kids that are taking chemistry and upper-level math and more challenging things."
Key to that mission is making post-secondary education an attainable option for a teenager in rural Alaska, she said.
"Most of our kids don't have a lot of access to or experience with information on post-secondary education," Vanasse said. "Most of those kids are first-generation (college students).
"Take our geographical distance, and it's even more challenging. It's not like they are driving past UAA every day. Their parents put them on a plane and say, 'Good luck on the other end.' "
Vanasse said the high school got a big boost from the Alaska Commission on Post-Secondary Education, which used a federal grant to place college-and-career guides at a handful of schools, including Bethel. The program creates a position for a recent college graduate who either attended the school or a school nearby, and who can counsel students as a near-peer.
Nathaniel Betz, a 2005 graduate of the village school in Atmautluk and a recent graduate of Maine's Colby College, has held that position in Bethel for three years, Vanasse said.
"He filled that missing gap," she said. "He does everything from (working) the junior high kids by just giving them exposure to what careers are out there, to the seniors by helping them be able to navigate the very difficult paperwork involved to get where you want to go."
'A skype session? Really?!?
To the victors go the spoils, although for awhile it looked like maybe Bethel's prize would be compromised by logistics.
In recent years, Get Schooled has sent Nicki Minaj to Chicago and Lamar to Rhode Island, but the prospect of sending a star to Bush Alaska initially jeopardized Bethel's reward.
Instead of sending a celebrity to such a far-away, isolated place, Get Schooled presented a compromise: A Skype session with Lamar.
The Skype visit happened in May and it was great, Forbes and other students said. "When a student asked him about how he had straight-As through high school, he said that gave him a positive spin on life," Forbes said.
But a virtual visit isn't the same as a real visit, and the Bethel kids wanted the prize they earned. So they returned to Twitter to call attention to the injustice. Using the hashmark #gettrolled, they voiced their disappointment with a barrage of tweets like this:
REALLY @getschooled after all the hard work and this is how you do us? A skype session? Really?!? You upset a lot of kids today. #gettrolled
Get Schooled responded with an announcement earlier this month that Harden, an NBA all-star, would spend half a day this week as Bethel's celebrity principal. The choice is a great one for a place that lives and breathes basketball for much of the year.
Harden was supposed to visit Thursday, but late Wednesday the school got word that because of a scheduling conflict, Harden's trip would be postponed by one day -- and on Thursday students learned that Lamar, set to perform at the Alaska State Fair in Palmer Thursday night, will join him.
In anticipation of meeting Harden, kids are wearing bushy fake beards and making Beard2Bethel posters. Forbes says he can't think of a more famous person to visit the town.
"Other than rumors, I can't really think of one," he said.

Investors got some bad news about the American shopper on Friday, driving down stocks and sending the Dow Jones industrial average to a loss for the week.
Two major U.S. companies — the retail giant Amazon and the credit card processor Visa — both said that the second half of the year was looking more troubled than originally expected. The cautious outlook from two companies so heavily exposed to consumer spending spooked investors.
The Dow dropped 123.23 points, or 0.7 percent, to 16,960.57. It's the first time the Dow has closed below the psychologically notable 17,000-point mark since July 9. The Standard & Poor's 500 fell 9.64 points, or 0.5 percent, to 1,978.34 and the Nasdaq composite fell 22.54 points, or 0.5 percent, to 4,449.56.
With Friday's selling, the Dow fell 0.8 percent this week. The S&P 500 closed basically unchanged and the Nasdaq rose 0.4 percent this week.
Visa was the biggest decliner among the blue chips, falling $7.97, or 3.6 percent, to $214.77. The credit card processor reported an 11 percent rise in quarterly profit but cut its full-year forecast on concerns about growth overseas.
Because the Dow is a price-weighted index, and Visa is the most expensive stock in the Dow, Visa was having an outsized impact on it. Roughly 60 points of the Dow's decline can be attributed to Visa.
Amazon's stock slumped 10 percent to close at $324.01 after the online retail giant late Thursday posted a much wider loss than analysts had forecast, hit by expenses.
Still, the stock market remains near all-time highs, and the S&P 500 closed at a record Thursday.

Intellectual Property Strategy in Bioinformatics and Biochips
Fernandez, Dennis, Chow, Mary, Santa Clara Computer & High Technology Law Journal
What are the fields of bioinformatics and biochips? These are relatively new disciplines that have gained much recognition in the past few years. Basically, bioinformatics is the convergence of analytical and computational tools with the discipline of biological research. This has vast influence in biological research, as numerous data that are collected through laboratory experiments can be organized and analyzed, and predictions can be made to reduce the time spent in finding cures for the causes and cures of diseases. Additionally, biochips pertain to primarily semiconductor-based devices used for biological or other healthcare-related applications.
The amount of data collected in biological research is tremendous especially in the area of genomics. On June 26, 2000, a group of scientists announced the completed survey of the human genome--the sum total of all the genes in each cell of the human body. (1) The genome is the entire genetic blueprint for a human being written in the alphabet of chemical compounds called nucleotides: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thiamine (T). (2) A gene is the specific sequence of the nucleotides that tells the body how to create proteins that maintain cellular structure of the organism and direct the functions of the cell. (3) The human cell has some 100,000 genes that are specific sequences of DNA and the sum total of all units of nucleotides results in a mind-boggling 3.1 to 3.2 billion base pairs in the human genome. (4) However, only 3%-5% of the genome contains genes, which in turn produce four to five proteins. These few protein molecules control all of life's major functions. (5) Thus, computational technology is required in the sequencing of the database, the studying of the functions of the specific sequence (gene), and the management and dissemination of the genetic information.
With the potential pay-off of finding a blockbuster drug or treatment, a copious amount of funding, both private and public, has gone into the development of bioinformatic tools as well as related biochip applications in the genomic space. With all the money going into these bioinformatic and biochip companies, these companies need to protect their technology. In 1999 alone, for example, 289,448 patent applications were filed in the bioinformatic field and the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has created working groups to deal with the influx of bioinformatic applications. (6) Although patents in these areas have increased and provided an avenue to protect one's intellectual property in this discipline, controversy surrounds the patenting of various technologies in the field. For one, the thought of allowing a company to patent and have a monopoly over a gene sequence that has been around since the beginning of life is quite disturbing. On the other hand, the discovering and developing of a new gene-based pharmaceutical product in the United States requires years of commitment and immense capital resources, possibly in the realm of $500 million. (7) Without the protection of the patent system, these companies would have no means of recouping these capital and time investments, and innovation would be put to a halt. (8)
Within the genomic discipline, companies and research can be divided into three areas: 1) sequencing the genome, 2) functional genomics, which is finding the functions of the genes, and 3) information systems, which is the software tools that manage and present the tremendous amount of data. Additionally, various biochips technologies, such as micro-arrays, are deployed in cooperation with such genomic tools. For each area, different technology is generated and thus, a different intellectual property strategy should be deployed. Often, companies participate in one or more of the areas and should pursue a joint strategy.

Cosmology is the study of planets, stars, galaxies, and universes and gives insights into how the universe works. Cosmologists discover laws of the cosmos, not create them. They communicate the cause and effects of each law and explain them in ways the average intelligent person can understand. They base their insights on questions, doubts, experimentation, exploration, testing and formulating hypotheses that others can challenge and change as new evidence emerges.

Claims of Bias Rising in Agencies: 17% of Complaints Last Year by Whites
Larson, Ruth, The Washington Times (Washington, DC)
The Clinton administration's push for diversity in federal agencies has had an unintended consequence - a dramatic rise in discrimination complaints, including growing numbers of white employees charging reverse discrimination.
While the number of federal workers has dropped by almost 340,000 since 1991, the number of discrimination complaints has grown by a third, from 9,924 in 1991 to 13,156 in 1996, according to statistics from the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
And whites' charges of reverse discrimination have nearly doubled, from just 10 percent of the EEOC's caseload in 1991 to 17.1 percent in 1996.
"In implementing equal employment policies, agencies have used quotas and timetables that appear to contribute to the increases in discrimination charges," Rep. John L. Mica, Florida Republican, said in a recent memo.
At a congressional hearing last week, Mr. Mica noted: "Government employment practices sanction race- or sex-based preferences and the disparate treatment of individuals based upon their race, sex or national origin. Whether we call it `reverse discrimination' or `affirmative action,' the effects on individual victims are no less devastating."
Luther Strickland Jr., a former Federal Aviation Administration lawyer now in private practice near Atlanta, said his caseload reflects the growing diversity backlash.
"People who are absolutely not qualified are being promoted because they are females or minorities, just to fill their diversity goals," he said. "They're just going overboard."
The Washington Times has reported on several diversity programs in federal agencies that seem to defy common sense. At the Forest Service, for example, critical firefighting positions in California forests were left vacant - not because there were no applicants, but because the slots were "reserved" for women and not enough of them applied.
Earlier this year, the National Park Service suspended hiring for temporary seasonal positions for two weeks in March - the peak summer hiring season - because senior officials wanted a more diverse work force.
"The National Park Service's employment policies appear to be at odds with statutorily established merit system principles," Mr. Mica's memo said.
Diversity even permeates the employee awards process. For instance, a recent FAA letter soliciting award nominations cautioned, "Please assure that your nominations reflect the diversity of our work force."
One FAA employee said, "As a manager, this tells me that if the top five [candidates] happen to be white, I'd better grab the bottom three instead, to meet their diversity numbers. Quality isn't even considered.
"That's stupid - it's dumbing down our whole society," he said.
The House Government Reform and Oversight Committee's subcommittee on civil service will hold a hearing Sept. 24 on discrimination in the federal workplace. …

I was hoping one of you fabricholics have seen this or know where Ican find some. Or maybe I should be searching by a different term. About 9 months ago I spotted in a quilt store several solid colors woven with a metallic thread. Now it seems that I can only find cotton printed with metallic ink. I don't think it was a seasonal thing as I saw it in 8-10 colorways. Thanks so much!

Maybe I have a bad batch or something because this fabric softener doesn't soften my clothes at all. I put the required number of squirts in my machine, and when my clothes come out of the washer they don't smell like any scent, and they are not soft at all. Very disappointed. I usually use Downy so I know that my clothes usually feel soft when they come out. For me, this product is useless.
I regularly purchase this fabric softener. Smells nice & worth well. So easy to dispense !
Great scent and it works really well. I love that you only need to use a little and the packaging is fantastic to avoid waste.
Love this! Such a light, fresh scent! There is no over powering chemical smell like so many other brands. I also love the pump! There isn't any waste because my clumsy hands don't spill it or accidentally pour in too much!
Gets clothes very soft, and most importantly, doesn't have an overpowering scent! No adverse reaction to it from my 4 year old. Recommended.
Love the product and how easy it is to use. The bottle is a pump, so easy to measure.
Love all Method Laundry products! Love the pump super convenient no mess and bottle is nice and compact. Love that it is safe and has no chemicals!
I love method products ! This softener is easy to use and I like the scent. I purchase this item regularly.
I liked this softner. The smell is nice, did not irritate my skin . Would try different scents in the future.
I love this! I stopped using softener for a while until I discovered Method made some. I love the scent! And how my clothes don't feel greasy or waxy from using it n
It works great and smells nice. Clothes feel soft and I noticed a huge decrease in skin irritation compared to other non-natural fabric softeners.
The scent is pleasant and my clothes come out feeling very soft. It doesn't however deal with static very well and for that reason, I probably wouldn't buy it again or use it alone. I still have to add a dryer sheet to the load.
Nice scent, easy to dispense. I love method products and will continue to purchase this item.
I have used this product 5 times and am very happy with it. At first I was hesitant about the smaller size and higher price but the product really is concentrated and a good value for the money. If you are vegan you know how difficult it is to find products that not only do not contain any animal products but do not test on animals and do not use suppliers who test on animals. In addition, I have personally found it difficult to find cleaning, laundry etc products that actually work. I seem to have tried them all but METHOD is by far the best.
I use this fabric softener for my baby clothes and it smells so nice. Its really gentle and the dispenser is easy to use with no messes.
I love this fabric softener. It really softens and smells nice. I love the fact there are no chemicals and that all you need is 4 pumps.

Sooo... Had my worst pregnancy brain moment yet today. I made a German chocolate cake for my father in law's birthday tomorrow... As i was stirring the icing and adding the coconut/pecans to it, I noticed some strange small white lumps in it. I'd made this icing several times and had never had these weird lumps... I started picking them out and then I realized... I'd forgotten to separate the egg whites and throw them out!! I put the entire eggs into the icing, and the whites had cooked! I picked out as much as I could and am just praying it mixes with the coconut/pecans and no one notices... (DH tried the icing and never noticed!)
Worst pregnant brain moment so far?

Discover how to make homemade ice cream. It only takes a few ingredients.
Egg-Free Ice Creams
Ice cream comes in two basic styles: Custard (or French custard-style) and Philadelphia (also called "New York" or "American").
Unlike custards, Philadelphia-style ice cream contains no egg yolks and does not require cooking. It's based purely on cream and sugar, and is very delicate-tasting, with few ingredients.
Custard Ice Creams
Custard ice cream is, as the name suggests, made from a custard base. Egg yolks or whole eggs are whisked together with hot milk or cream and sugar, and cooked gently until the mixture becomes thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Egg yolks are natural emulsifiers, and the resulting custard makes an ice cream that is remarkably smooth and rich. Chill the custard for at least one hour before freezing.
- Peach Ice Cream
- Vanilla Ice Cream VII
- Dark Chocolate and Cinnamon Frozen Custard
- Very Chocolate Ice Cream
- Richer Than Rich German Chocolate Ice Cream
Adding Flavor
Start from a simple base of cream, milk, eggs, and sugar, and then mix in ripe summer fruits, chocolate, and toasted nuts to create your own flavor combos. Other good choices? Vanilla beans, lavender, green tea, fresh peppermint, and candied ginger.
- To get the most flavor from a vanilla bean, split it lengthwise with a sharp knife and scrape the seeds into the milk.
- After the bean has steeped, remove the pod and rinse in cold water and pat dry.
- "Used" vanilla beans are still powerfully aromatic, and can be stored in a canister of plain granulated sugar to make vanilla sugar.
- Infuse herbs and spices into the mixture as you heat the milk.
- Extracts, liqueurs, and flavoring oils (citrus, peppermint, cinnamon) should be added after the custard has cooled slightly.
- Add perfectly ripe fruits and berries to your ice cream base: sprinkle fruit with sugar and crush it with a potato masher before mixing it in. This adds much more flavor than plain chunks of fruit stirred into the mix.
- To add nuts, chocolate, crumbled cookies, or whole berries, let the ice cream reach the consistency of soft-serve, and then stir in the garnishes; pack in airtight containers and freeze until firm.
- Chocolate Velvet Ice Cream
- Easy Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
- Cinnamon Ice Cream
- Frozen Pineapple "Ice Cream" Sandwich
- Cookies and Peppermint Ice Cream Cake
Ripening and Storing
When the mixture has thickened and is hard to stir, remove it from the ice cream maker and transfer it to a freezer container. If you can resist the urge to devour it while it's still in this "soft-serve" stage, let it harden in the coldest part of your freezer for several hours or overnight. Your patience will be rewarded.
Tip: To keep your ice cream from becoming super-hard in the freezer, make sure both the ice cream maker and the mixture are kept ice cold as you're making the ice cream.
Store leftover ice cream in an airtight container with a layer of plastic wrap pressed onto the surface to prevent it from absorbing odors.
Turning Crystals into Creaminess
Mix cream and sugar together and freeze it, and ice crystals will form. By agitating the mixture and adding air to increase its volume, ice cream machines create the light, smooth, creamy texture we crave.
Premium ice creams have a low "overrun"–that is, the volume of air added to the mix. That's why the cartons feel so heavy, because the ice cream is very dense. Some lower-grade ice creams that consist of half air, half ice cream have a 100% overrun. Those cartons are lighter.

The Outreach Program provides diversionary and youth development activities to the Warlpiri communities of Willowra, Nyirrpi and Lajamanu. At the heart of this Program is the WETT Youth & Media Project.
Funded since 2007 by the Kurra Aboriginal Corporation, the model focuses initially on diversionary activities for young people; project based media workshops focus on process, developing interesting youth & media opportunities for young people as a diversion from at-risk behavior; higher end media training and activities focus on employment options and media products for use in the communities and the wider community.
It is only through the WETT Youth & Media Project that the Outreach Program has become sustainable and achieved substantial outcomes. Over the year the Project enabled a total of 842 media hours with 1524 participants across the three communities and several inspiring and fun films have been uploaded to www.wettmedia.org.au. Its success has led to further funding from government donors.
The Willowra Youth Program has established itself not only as a strong diversionary program but also a stable youth development program. There is a constant range of youth diversionary activities available to youth in Willowra encompassing sport, art, disco, media, music and excursions.
During this 12-month period, an average of 58.5 hours per week of activities attracted an average of 326.9 participants. Incite Youth Arts dance and hip-hop music, and graffiti art workshops ran over several weeks during this year and were extremely popular.
The training rooms have been used on a daily basis, providing a hub for literacy, numeracy, music and media training, as well as recreational activities such as pottery, for the older young people. In a short time it has proved an effective space for 15-25 year olds with an emphasis on music and media training. One room has been dedicated a video edit suite, another stores the high-end music recording equipment and the other largest room housing three computers and a small area with bean bags and magazines. Activities have included music recording with the Lander River Band, photography and printing workshops, video editing and general computer use.
During this year, a large multi-purpose room was completed as an extension of the youth centre. This space also houses the Willowra family painting project that was completed in December 2009. Willowra elders officially opened the 'gallery' on Christmas Eve. Fourteen family groups are represented, with an elder from each family, their children and grandchildren, painting their 'dreaming'. The paintings are on permanent display in the Youth Centre's Blue Room and are identified by a small display card in English and Warlpiri.
A highlight was 'Wirliyajarrayi Festival', the major arts and cultural project in Willowra held on Saturday October 17. Many organisations were involved to make this a spectacular event. People from other communities came to participate and to watch. Activities were held throughout the day: clay workshop, egg and spoon races, Pinyada and lollie scramble, lighting of the pottery kiln, dancing preparations, and a magic show. In the months leading to the event the youth watched elders painting Yawalyu and Pulapa banners and participated in dancing practice (men and boys). The Lander River Band was the feature band at the Festival. Anna Cadden (Media Trainer) and the youth workers mentored and assisted two of the media -trained girls to film the Festival, and post-production. Several of the Mt Theo team assisted and supported the Willowra youth workers. The community young and old prepared for the festival by painting traditional paintings and making wooden artifacts such as coolamons, clapping Sticks and boomerangs. Through this process the youth were immersed in Warlpiri artistic cultural traditions.
Mt Theo youth workers took part responsibility for the childcare, as a way of accessing and supporting young mothers in the community and tutoring a number of young mothers who are studying for their Cert 111 in Childcare.
As part of the senior class school curriculum, we mentored a video production course, which saw a 3-minute movie produced completely by the students. They drew up storyboards, developed concepts, learnt how to use the camera and edited the movie in iMovie. A version was uploaded to the community website by the students. The class were engaged, extremely enthusiastic and showed great skill in the project.
The music-recording studio has been a valuable asset to the youth program. The studio is used on a daily/weekly basis. The music studio has generated very strong participation by both young men and women. As part of the youth development strategy, the studio will not only equip the Lander River Band and others with the resources to produce and record their music, but provides a hub for vocational training in music engineering, recording, and performance.
The Nyirrpi Youth Program has had a very successful 12 months with stable youth workers and a Youth Committee directing strategy and activities. A wide range of activities were available for 5 days every week, with an additional focus on cultural excursions and computers, as instructed by the community.
During this 12-month period, an average of 45 hours per week of activities attracted an average of 279.3 participants. Incite Youth Arts dance and hip-hop music, and graffiti art workshops ran over several weeks during this year and were extremely popular.
Weekly cultural excursions were a particular highlight and focus of the program during this period. This included elders of the community accompanying Nyirrpi youth to show and teach about important sites, searching for bush tucker and animals. A new partnership with Indigo Foundation will ensure one extended camp each year to build on the strong cultural focus of the community elders.
Nyirrpi women also joined Yuendumu women for the Karnte Dance Camp during which many younger women were taught dreamtime stories and dancing. Nyirrpi youth also participated in a CLC Ranger trip in June to monitor flora and fauna in the region.
GMAAAC (Granites Mines Affected Area Aboriginal Corporation) provided $68,200 for a music & new media studio which involved building soundproofed rooms within the existing Nyirrpi Recreational Hall. This enabled the facilitation of a broad range of media and training programs. The rooms house equipment to be used for video production, music recording, podcasting and new media. It enables the community to produce works of a professional-level standard. The space is also used as a place for the bands to rehearse.
CAYLUS (Central Australian Youth Link-up Services) funded two lockable rooms, which are built at the front of the hall, and a storage room inside. One room is used as a music & computer room, the other is the program office.
The Youth Committee meets regularly and is actively involved in service delivery. All of this has created clear community expectations regarding the program and positive feedback from community and funding bodies.
PAW Media (Warlpiri Media) ran a number of media training workshops involving animation, filming, editing and music and these were well patronized by Nyirrpi youth. Two excellent plasticine animation movies were produced from the June animation workshops. It is hoped that this initial media training experience can generate greater day to day involvement of media production such as photography and filming alongside normal youth activity. Similarly this should provide greater opportunities for youth development work in the Nyirrpi program.
The Lajamanu program has had an outstanding first year, providing a comprehensive range of diversion and development activities to Lajamanu youth. Two new workers have established a dynamic and positive development program that has been very well received by the community.
After much groundwork and supervision a strong pool of local Jaru/trainees is being well utilized and will continue to grow until well into the future. Furthermore, the Youth Committee was established involving local members, and more broadly, an advisory group involving the Police, School and Clinic.
Incite Youth Arts dance and hip-hop music, and graffiti art workshops ran over several weeks during this year and were extremely popular.
During this 12-month period, an average of 55.5 hours per week of activities attracted an average of 733.3 participants.
Other than traditional sporting and disco activities, excursions, computers and media activities emerged as significant program elements. Excursions are highly valued by the youth and the community for their high cultural value. Elders were present on these trips to teach Lajamanu youth about dreaming stories, bush tucker, bush medicine and their own history.
A very popular media room has been established which enables video editing post bush trips, disco and sporting activity in addition to recording music.
Media is an essential part of the diversionary youth program in Lajamanu, youth workers engage in basic media activities at a daily/weekly level. This may involve going on a bush excursion and taking the camera along, or filming football matches or a disco. This enables a wide range of youth to engage at an introductory and fun level with the media project. This also presents as a 'talent spotting' exercise for the youth workers to pass on to PAW Media and trainers information about who may be especially interested or capable for more formal training.
A number of promising cultural projects have been established during this period such as a t-shirt screen-printing representing skin groups and a collaboration with Warnayaka Art Gallery on painting and dancing. There has been extensive discussion about a more comprehensive long-term project 'Yirtaki Mani' which would be a tracking project aimed at cultural literacy, designed by Mt Theo Lajamanu cultural mentor Steve Patrick.
In addition to these core activities important qualititative additions were made to many activities. For example hanging out in the youth space has widened to include literacy activity such as computers and reading newspapers, magazines, crossword puzzles, find-a-word games, which have been provided. Disco became a larger, more vibrant and multi-faceted during this period. In addition to the usual DJing of music and dancing a booming kitchen service was established which was staffed by Lajamanu youth. Moreover each disco was filmed by Jaru workers and concurrently played on a large screen with projector for all attendees to see.
The Outreach Program is funded by Kurra Aboriginal Corporation(WETT – Warlpiri Education Training Trust); Department of Families, Housing, Community Services & Indigenous Affairs – Youth in Communities; NT Department of Health & Families; Granites Mines Affected Area Aboriginal Corporation (GMAAAC); Central Australian Youth Link Up Service (CAYLUS).
