Anyone can be nominated for an Award, as long as their work with or for refugees is worthy of recognition and falls within one of the ten award categories. Nominees can be individuals, organisations or specific projects.
Anyone can nominate another individual, organisation or project for an Award. An individual may also nominate themselves.

The small business measure on the Senate floor would provide a long-term reauthorization of the Small Business Innovation Research and the Small Business Technical Transfer programs.
Landrieu voted last year for an unsuccessful measure to strip EPA's power to regulate greenhouse gases, and has said she may vote for Sen. James Inhofe's (R-Okla.) recent legislation that would have the same effect.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) is seeking to attach Inhofe's plan to the small business bill.
It is unclear when a vote on the amendment may occur.

You guys have to stop with bullsht about Marquez, 4sure the kid had the right support but he is a true rider and is not Redding that is better then him.. I agree with some comments even this year if redding had this rule playing he wiil not had beat Marquez for the Champion just my opinian.. About Motogp i think the rules are good Casey go home because is tired of this he dont whant to fight more otherwise he would stay playing he has one famaly now is heer option.. Live will be more harder for manufacturs that will have to make more horsepower waste less fuel and improve there realiability and will be really hard.. If this new ECU is good CRT bikes will be faster and also can use 12 engines, also CRTS build buy Honda can be competitive.. i think will be a big surprised for all 2014 year, more bikes more hard worck for everybody and 4sure who rider Full prototipos can still win but there live will not be esay if they loss there engines or for mistakes or for engine problems 5 engine wi

Designed from the ground up to be an instrument of all-mountain freestyle destruction, the Salomon Men's Pledge Snowboard Boot is committed to a season of aggressive progression in custom comfort. By using a witch's brew of tech, the Pledge gives big-trick, all-mountain addicts intuitive response and tweakable flex when you need it. The key is the 3D motion flex construction, which brings 360° for maximum ankle mobility while maintaining plenty of support.
Your boot should fit your foot; The ZoneLock closure offers a dual, speed-lace system for an individual fit that's comfortable from the parking lot to the peak. The upper lace quickly adjusts the top of the boot around your calf, while one yank on the side lace sinks your forefoot and heel into uncompromising protection against foot sliding and heel lift. This control perfectly complements the Balance Level 4 liner, which evenly distributes lace pressure from the top of the boot to the arch and heel. Combine this with the thermo-moldable Full Custom Fit Pro liner foam with removable ankle inserts for a snug, one-of-a-kind fit that won't turn to mush on landings.
The Empire outsole draws inspiration from skate shoes for both its look and functionality. EVA foam offers resilient dampening in the heel, and a thinner profile in the forefoot promotes natural movement and increases blood flow and board feel for better control and reduced fatigue. On top of the sole and right underfoot, the pre-shaped Conform'able footbed with patented arch flex hugs your feet with unmatched stability and pressure distribution to keep you upright all day long.

What do you think about this product?
Have questions about this product?
Inadequate lacing hardware
- Familiarity:I've used it several times
The boot itself was comfortable, and the three different zones made it easy to get it snug and stiff. The problem is that the lacing locks are all flimsy plastic and not at all up for the task of holding the laces down. Ironically they're called something like "Sure Lock", which couldn't be further from the truth. Especially the side locks kept slipping up on me, causing me to have to re-tighten it every two-three runs. On the fourth day I had them the whole casing for one of the locks cracked, making me have to send them back. They should simplify the whole mechanism, it's a bad combination of flimsy and complicated.

That would be about $400 in US Dollars
The best choices are the Canon S110 and the Panasonic LX7 because they have better than average low light performance.
If you are going to use flash for the night shots you can add the Panasonic TZ25 (also known as ZS15) to the list.
Need a new camera!! I want one that takes good pictures at night and to body models with detail. Also with a battery or batteries that last for 100 shots with flash.
Budget between 0€ and 250€

Abi was our nanny for several months and she was excellent with our 9 month old. She is sweet, caring, and creative. She was dependable and flexible with our schedule. She kept our little one happy and growing. She was respectful of our things and our home. She even made extra efforts to support us by helping around the house with laundry and dishes which was not in her contract. She is a great asset. Josh,Trisha, and Emma
Abbi has been our nanny for 6 months and we are very happy with her service. She has helped our son meet or exceeds his developmental milestones. She instantly developed a sweet and loving rapport with our son; he looks forward to seeing her everyday! Abbi always helps around the house and is willing to do anything she can to help me, especially when I'm frazzled. She is flexible and willing to pick up additional hours when we need a date night or need to work extra hours. I'm very grateful Abbi has come into our lives and I am confident other families will benefit from her presence as well!

If a deadly flu epidemic hit Maryland, the governor could decide which patients would be put on life-saving ventilators — and which wouldn't.
Maryland's attorney general issued an opinion in December that found that the Catastrophic Health Emergencies Act of 2002 gives the governor the authority to ration the machines that support breathing in flu patients suffering respiratory complications.
That doesn't mean the governor would decide personally who gets a ventilator. Rather, he or she would declare a public health emergency and hospitals would rely on a set of criteria to allocate resources.
Those criteria, however, don't exist yet.

Marijuana's bad boy image has been getting a well-earned makeover in recent years, thanks in part to its surging popularity as a legitimate form of herbal medicine. In fact, it's not cannabis' infamous THC content that's creating a real buzz these days. Instead, it's a lesser-known chemical called CBD that is attracting much of the attention.
The myths we are concerned about, the ones of dubious value, are crazy stories that are passed off as facts when talking about solar energy. To get to the bottom of these solar myths we talked to Gordon Howell, a solar expert with Howell-Mayhew Engineering.
The Canadian economy is "technically" in a recession, as 2015 ended with two consecutive quarters of contracting GDP. Whether or not you personally agree with classifying the current economic situation as such, we are going through tough times. However, the recession does not seem to be bothering most Canadian economists -- or, for that matter, most Canadians.
Whether it's Internet access or affordable housing -- the same problem presents itself. Government interference drives up prices while constraining the problem solving power of a free market. Consumer advocacy groups should be fighting for less interference, fewer regulations, and a less powerful bureaucracy. The solution is never more government. It's less.
Media managers are wondering what went wrong. They are asking why journalism doesn't pay any more. If the solutions are hard to discern, they have only to look at the technology they so eagerly embrace. It's the digital technology. It has spread throughout many industries including journalism, like a virus.
Did you recently marry or have a child? Did you go through a divorce or the death of a spouse? Family status changes like these directly affect your tax return. Start now and make sure you understand how you will be affected and what credits or deductions may now be accessible to you.
A pro-innovation agenda with respect to climate change is composed of the same basic policies for other sectors, including competitive taxation, strong intellectual property protection and a sensible regulatory regime, investments in human capital, and high-quality infrastructure.
CBC has boasted that 50 per cent of the cost of its TV services is paid for by advertising revenue. No more. In the year ending August 2015, CBC English TV ad revenue fell off a cliff and was barely $100 million, well under 20 per cent of TV revenues. Funding from taxpayers is now four times greater than ad revenues.
Whether you are a man or a woman, you have both masculine and feminine energy in you. Your job is to coax these energies out, embrace them and express yourself through them. Both men and women have been socialized to believe that it is all about proficiency, but as we've seen, the results of competent individuals, who are not considered likeable, can be viewed as subpar.
Now that the Trans Pacific Partnership has been signed, maybe we can have the honest, open and transparent debate that Canadians were denied during the federal election -- and which the new Liberal government in Ottawa has promised. So, let's have that debate. There's certainly a lot to talk about.
It's only in this market, with it's unfettered influx of foreign bags of cash that this can happen. If our market was not in overdrive, we would not see such a flagrant waste of a perfectly good home and that's the thing that people are most upset about.
By this time next week, you will no longer be able to buy a home in Canada priced at more than $500,000 with a five-per-cent down payment. Big deal or no deal? It seems to depend on what market you're in.
Entrepreneurship has swept across Canadian universities as more and more Millenials become determined to bring their ideas into reality. Shows like Dragon's Den have gained popularity, and encouraged a newfound fascination for new ventures.
When we came to Canada, my husband and I arrived with no jobs. With the confidence of youth, we were positive it would all work out well. And it did. It was also our first clue that entrepreneurship was our destiny because we were accustomed to ambiguity and taking risks.
Digital nomadism has been rising in popularity over the past few years, yet it's still largely misunderstood. I've been a digital nomad for about two years, and family and friends continue to ask me, "do you ever work?"
With the rise of social networks and mobile devices, consumers are in the driver's seat and expect to connect with retailers seamlessly across every channel. Whether it's meeting a new customer or welcoming back an existing one, there's never been a better time to commit to nurturing your relationship with each one, this Valentine's Day and beyond.
Apple launches are the stuff of legends; they cause lineups for days, stores to sell out, and months of back orders for their newest products. You can use the same marketing techniques as Apple to successfully launch your own book as well. There are four techniques you can use that won't break the bank and will help build a cult around your book.

Next-Gen Disc Or Digital For Your Next Gaming Purchases?
We are on the brink of a new era in gaming consoles as the next-gen machines are now just months…
We are on the brink of a new era in gaming consoles as the next-gen machines are now just months away.
When Sony and Microsoft launched their visions for the latest consoles a lot was hyped up about how this was going to be the end of the disc and we were being led into a brave new world of digital downloads and cloud gaming.
Microsoft and Sony are both wanting to push the digital downloads with the Xbox1 and PS4.
As consumers and gaming fans a lot of people expressed concern that we are not ready yet to take a leap of faith into digital downloads only and that the disc still has a huge role to play in modern gaming.
Let's a take a look at some of the advantages and disadvantages of disc V digital.
There is one massive advantage that buying a game on PSN has over a physical copy being that you can install it to two PS3's. I know you can take your physical copy and install it on any machine however you can not play your physical copy on two machines at the same time, which currently you can on PSN downloads.
This is great for say a Dad who wants to play same game as son online he can buy a copy via PSN and he and son can both be playing on separate accounts and consoles
Will this continue to be the case come Next-Gen?
Sony have said you will be able to access your digital games library from any machine, however I bet you can not access it on two machines at the same time like you can now. I would expect Sony to have come out and said if it was going to work in a similar fashion on PS4 by now however there silence speaks volumes on this issue.
Microsoft, well it does not matter what they have said as guaranteed whatever they have said will have changed again between now and launch.
Of course another advantage is a digital copy won't get scratched, lost or damaged, nor will it get snapped in anger by a neglected partner!
Currently you can not trade in your digital copies either, whilst I know there are rumours that both Sony and Microsoft are looking into this, as it stands with just 2 months to launch this is not the case.
We also need to take into account cost.
I am going to use Sony's PSN Store as an example here as I am a PS3 user and the cost between digital and disc versions of games is staggering. I am going to take 3 games that you can currently pre-order on PS3 as an example.
Assassin's Creed 4 for currently has a pre order cost of £40 via Tesco and when you view it, it says uses this code to save a further £5 so £35 delivered to you on the day of release.
Assassin's Creed 4 on the PSN store to Pre-order is £59.99 a huge £25 dearer than the disc version of the game, now granted Tesco might deliver late so go buy one in store for £40 on release day you still save £20!
Watchdogs Tesco £35 PSN £55.99 Save £20!
GTA V Tesco £35 PSN Store £49.99 Save £25
Total these up Tesco £105 PSN £156
If you are lucky enough to be buying these three games in store you are saving yourself enough money to buy another AAA, just not enough money to buy it via the PSN store!
If this disparity of costs between stores and digital downloads are carried over to the Next-Gen it's a no brainer for the vast majority of the consumers will continue to buy physical copies of games and save a considerable amount of money.
There is also the issue of download speeds and internet access to factor in as well.
Akamai reported earlier this year that the average US gaming speed was now 8.6mbps a 27% increase in speed compared to the previous year, whilst globally internet speed has seen an increase of 17% to an average of 3.1mbps. A study by Pew Internet earlier this year concluded that 70% of American adults have high speed broadband.
The above information confirms to us that the US leads the way in broadband speeds however the rest of the world is somewhat lagging behind, which is hardly a surprise or a new belief. Some people still have slow broadband and even broadband restrictions making digital downloads just not possible at this stage. It could take days with some internet to download a game.
We have seen over the last few days Sony will be allowing the downloading and pre loading of GTA V on the PS3 to start in Europe on two days before release day, this is because the download speeds in Europe are a lot slow than their American counterparts, this will help ensure EU users have the game downloaded in time for the official release day.
This is of course an advantage of digital as the game will be ready to start playing at midnight on launch day unlike people who have to go to stores to buy in the middle of night then travel home and install the game, or even worse those who have to wait for there chosen supplier to rock up on the day disc in hand.
In conclusion I can easily see digital downloads being the preferred option for a lot of users of Xbox1 and PS4 however will they have the broadband speed and enough money to be able to purchase these games digitally on the next gen?
Will you be buying via disc or digital for the majority of your purchases?

Dear supporters and friends,
I visited the pilot project on January 21, 2012. January is the heart of the dry season in northern Ethiopia. Our roof water harvesting systems are getting low and our volunteers are worried. They think that unless we buy water even the efficient clay pot irrigation system might give way. The completion of the underground water harvesting system before the beginning of the rainy season in June will guarantee water for next year.
Despite the drought and increased temperature the efficiency of the clay pot irrigation system is visible. We have captured pictures of apples with flowers and small fruits. They also green in a dry and brown area. People in the village are chatting as to why the plants are not dry. That made the people very optimistic that the system works. Recently I was contacted by the county agricultural extension bureau and told me of their support for this kinds of initiatives. I plant to talk to them and share the information in my next report. Look at the attached pictures for more information.
Thank you for supporting the initiative
Tsegay from Ethiopia.

Many pundits were under the assumption that the moment Tebow was released from the Jets he'd be on his way to Jacksonville.
There was a report a few weeks ago from ESPN's Chris Mortensen that had Tebow all but a certain to end up in Jacksonville. Well one thing is for certain after today, but it's that Tebow won't be a Jacksonville Jaguar.
Manish Mehta of the The New York Daily News reports that Jaguars new GM David Caldwell "can't imagine any scenario where Tebow would end up a Jaguar."

Exclusive Interview: '21 Jump Street' Star Brie Larson Is Poised to Dominate SXSW
You always believe Brie Larson. The 23-year-old actress has done everything from Disney Channel sitcoms to studio blockbusters to micro-budget indies, but no matter what the role, no matter how large or how small, she seems utterly incapable of a false note. Attendees of this year's South by Southwest Film Festival will have plenty of opportunities to marvel at her gifts; in one of those occasional festival collisions of timing and smart choices, Larson appears in three SXSW movies: she plays supporting roles in Joseph Gordon-Levitt's Don Jon's Addiction and James Ponsoldt's The Spectacular Now (both of which played to positive notices at Sundance) and takes the lead — her first — in Destin Cretton's subtle and powerful Short Term 12. Oh, and she also co-wrote and co-directed Weighting, which is playing in the shorts competition.

Comcast is under investigation by the Justice Department for data caps it's putting in to deal with streaming video traffic through high-speed Internet connections.
When the nation's largest cable company purchased NBC Universal in 2011, I was outraged. Comcast gobbled up a major content provider, and had to promise that it wouldn't play games when allowing customers to watch video content in order to get the deal through. But I guess Comcast lied.
Now the latest numbers show that 105 million Americans each day are watching streaming video. Those who are under age 35 are particularly reluctant to get a subscription to pay TV. They're watching streaming video on Hulu, Hulu Plus, Netflix or the networks' own websites.
By the way, for streaming video capability I love the Roku 2, which has a street price of around $80.
So the cable companies like Comcast are in terror that they'll become dumb pipes. But instead of competing in the free market, Comcast is using its government-granted monopoly position to choke free enterprise.
I truly hope the Justice Department investigation is not just sound and fury signifying nothing in an election year.

Readers with long memories may recall that Charles E. Wilson, president of General Motors and nominee for secretary of defense, got into trouble when he told a Senate committee, "What is good for the country is good for General Motors, and what's good for General Motors is good for the country."
That was in 1953, and Wilson was trying to make the point that General Motors was such a big company — it sold about half the cars in the United States back then — that its interests were inevitably aligned with those of the country as a whole.
Things are different now. General Motors' market share in the U.S. is below 20 percent. It has gone through bankruptcy and exists now thanks to a federal bailout. But Barack Obama seems to think that it's as closely aligned with the national interest as Charles E. Wilson did.
"When the American auto industry was on the brink of collapse," Obama told a campaign event audience in Colorado earlier this month, "I said, let's bet on America's workers. And we got management and workers to come together, making cars better than ever, and now GM is number one again and the American auto industry has come roaring back."
His conclusion: "So now I want to say that what we did with the auto industry, we can do in manufacturing across America. Let's make sure advanced, high-tech manufacturing jobs take root here, not in China. Let's have them here in Colorado. And that means supporting investment here."
"Obama talks about the auto bailout frequently, since it's one of the few things in his record that gets positive responses in the polls." -Michael BaroneWas he calling for a federal bailout of other American manufacturing companies? And what does he mean by "supporting investment"? White House reporters have not asked these obvious questions, for the good reason that the president, who has been attending fundraisers on an average of one every 60 hours, has not held a press conference in something like two months.
Obama talks about the auto bailout frequently, since it's one of the few things in his record that gets positive responses in the polls. But he's probably wise to avoid probing questions, since the GM bailout is not at all the success he claims.
GM has been selling cars in the U.S. at deep discount and, while it's making money in China — and is outsourcing operations there and elsewhere — it's bleeding losses in Europe. It's spending billions to ditch its Opel brand there in favor of Chevrolet, including $559 million to put the Chevy logo on Manchester United soccer team uniforms — and just fired the marketing exec who cut that deal.
It botched the launch of its new Chevrolet Malibu by starting with the green-friendly Eco version, which pleased its government shareholders but which got lousy reviews. And it's selling only about 10,000 electric-powered Chevy Volts a year, a puny contribution toward Obama's goal of 1 million electric vehicles on the road by 2015.
"GM is going from bad to worse," reads the headline on Automotive News Editor-in-Chief Keith Crain's analysis. That's certainly true of its stock price.
The government still owns 500 million shares of GM, 26 percent of the total. It needs to sell them for $53 a share to recover its $49.5 billion bailout. But the stock price is about $20 a share, and the Treasury now estimates that the government will lose more than $25 billion if and when it sells.
That's in addition to the revenue lost when the Obama administration permitted GM to continue to deduct previous losses from current profits, even though such deductions are ordinarily wiped out in bankruptcy proceedings.
It's hard to avoid the conclusion that GM is bleeding money because of decisions made by a management eager to please its political masters — and by the terms of the bankruptcy arranged by Obama car czars Ron Bloom and Steven Rattner.
Rattner himself admitted late last year, in a speech to the Detroit Economic Club, that "We should have asked the [United Auto Workers] to do a bit more. We did not ask any UAW member to take a cut in their pay." Nonunion employees of GM spin-off Delphi lost their pensions. UAW members didn't.
The UAW got its political payoff. And GM, according to Forbes writer Louis Woodhill, is headed to bankruptcy again.
Is this really what Obama wants to do for all manufacturing across America? Let's hope not.

I buy this for many reasons but mainly for the scent!
Best I have ever used
I love Method products in general, but the Wood for Good really stands out. My furniture is old and banged up from moving and general wear and tear, and the Method wood cleaner makes it clean, shiny but not oily, and good-smelling. It makes even our old stuff look amazing. :-)
I use this on all types of wood – solid, laminate, etc – with great results on all. And I love anything almond scented. I personally don't notice a lingering smell long after I finish cleaning, but my nose may not be that sensitive to it. I will continue to purchase this.
Great product!
Outstanding product! Absolutely perfect for wood. Has no silicone or fake shine enhancers so it REALLY does bring out the natural beauty of the wood. Smells delightfully like almonds. I have a residential housecleaning business and this is what we use on the wood in our clients homes and everyone is okay with it. :)
Good product....but stinky
I think this product does it's job really well…..but I will not be purchasing it again because of the strong scent. I got a headache after dusting just a few items around my house…and the scent lingers for a long while too. oh well…….
Thank God for the Non-toxic cleaner
I dedicated a post tonight based on my experience with this cleaner. I'm incredibly thankful that it was non-toxic, as are my children. I will forever buy Method cleaners and I'm going to replace the other brands that I have tomorrow.

Top Down Bottom Up Shades & Blinds
- Combine privacy and light control
- Lower from top and raise from bottom
- Versatile light control all around
- Corded styles operate with 2 cords
- Cordless styles allow pull as desired
Top down bottom up shades are most commonly used to allow natural light into the room while still maintaining privacy from the street. Position top down bottom up blinds as fully open, fully drawn, or any combination in between with the operation of independent top and bottom rails. For increased child and pet safety, choose cordless top down/bottom up to simply maneuver your shades with handles at the top and bottom. For very tall or hard to reach windows, consider standard top down bottom up lift cords instead of cordless for reachability.

Best Restaurant For A Romantic Dinner (2000)
The Strand
The lighting is dim. The doorways are hung with flowing white linen. The banquettes are squishy-cushy. And the tiger skin on the wall makes you long to take it down and lay it before a fireplace. What this adds up to is sex -- we mean, romance -- of the South Beach kind: decadent, seductive, and plentiful. Executive chef-proprietor Michelle Bernstein's classically innovative cuisine only enhances the mood provided by the décor. After all, it's pretty hard to engage in anything other than sex -- oops, did it again, romance -- when noshing on parfait of tuna tartare layered with caviar, or whole boneless squab stuffed with duck breast and duck pâté and sliced over figs. In other words the fare also is designed to stimulate your appetite for sex -- darn it, romance. Who wants to argue with that?

I wonder just how many of the votes in that poll are actually by unqiue ips and not just someone creating second and third accounts to drive up one list or another. I know some would say this wont happen... but yes it can and does happen. This site does not require a GT to make an account so anyone can make a dozen accounts on any of the free email sites just to manipulate the poll in the direction they wanted. Hopefully the mods and devs have some way of telling which are new or unique ip's and which are clones or proxied ip/accounts used to change the poll in their favor. Any clone ip, or proxied ip vote should not count as a true vote as toward what is wanted or wished for by the players.
Futher I think they should have placed the information about the poll in the in game ticker to let more players know about it so they could come vote and not just be left holding the bag on what ever change gets made.

Thanks for coming to the My Fishing Cape Cod blog. My name's Ryan and I am a fisherman, blogger and fisherman. I think you catch my drift.
That's my Mom and I in the above photo. I am fortunate to have been able to have fished Cape Cod since I was in kindergarten.
As a youngster the Cape's beaches, bays, harbors, flats and estuaries were a terrific playground.
The mission of MFCC is to help you catch more fish and have more fun fishing on Cape Cod.
The writing you'll find here offers my ideas and experiences fishing and exploring this wonderful area. I write through personal experience, including the good and the bad.
The My Fishing Cape Cod community is comprised of folks who like to fish, and love "just being out there" in the Cape's terrific natural environment. Many of us live year round on Cape, some just for the summer and others just for a weekend.
The page below goes into more detail about the site itself. You can learn more about MFCC membership by clicking here.
My story
I started fishing Cape Cod when I was 5 and have been hooked ever since. I have my Dad to thank for that. We fished for years out of a 12 foot aluminum skiff powered by a 6hp.
We chased stripers, bluefish and even tuna in that thing.
By high school my Dad had upgraded the boat and I was commercial fishing for striped bass every summer. I made a little money and absolutely fell in love with the lifestyle.
At age 16 I was spending full moon nights afloat on a dark bay, alone as my Dad slept in the cabin. I experienced so much during those years. We caught fish, rescued whales and learned that on a boat a 5 gallon bucket is a completely legitimate bathroom.
I then set off to college in Worcester and somehow ended up in Cairns, Australia. Throughout it all I kept coming back to Cape Cod each summer to hang out on the beach, commercial fish and eventually run fishing charters.
In 2011 my grandmother Loretta passed away, so my Dad and I did what we felt was right. We bought a boat and named it the Miss Loretta.
I ran striped bass fishing charters for several years out of that boat. I met some excellent people and experienced incredible fishing.
Not too long ago I made a choice to pursue what I love, and somehow I've ended up here, writing to you. This season I plan on fishing as much as I can while also maintaining "a life," as some people would say!
The MFCC team
I started My Fishing Cape Cod in 2011 and since then MFCC has grown into quite a team effort.
I have a lot of people to be thankful for!
Lauren Blacker
The prettiest face you'll see here on the blog for sure, I was lucky enough to meet Lauren at a summer cookout when I was 23. For some odd reason she keeps me around. Lauren cooks and blogs at her website Creatively Delish and also contributes recipes here on My Fishing Cape Cod.
Jason Mazzola
Jason and I have been fishing together since elementary school. Jay caught the tuna bug in his early twenties and has been in pursuit of giant tuna ever since. Jason has played a major role in developing the bluefin tuna content you see here on MFCC.
Garet Suomala
I met Garet when I was 17 years old and we have been friends ever since. Garet was born with a condition called spina bifida but it hasn't stopped him one bite. We've caught bass up to 35 pounds together. Click here to learn more about Garet and what he does for MFCC.
Andrew Massard
Andrew didn't fish much when I met him at Bourne High School. But recently Andrew's taken interest in fishing. He joined MFCC to help him catch a keeper striper, and now he's fishing offshore for yellowfin tuna and swordfish. Click here to learn more about Andrew and what he does for MFCC.
Kevin Collins
Kevin is my cousin and we have been fishing together since we were kids. Kevin plays an integral role in producing the radio show and podcast for the New England Patriots. Here on MFCC Kevin produces the My Fishing Cape Cod podcast and is the lead force behind everything podcast/audio related here on the site.
Jeff Miller
Jeff Miller runs Canal Bait and Tackle, a shop specializing in outfitting the Canal fisherman. I've done business with Jeff and Canal Bait since I was 18. Jeff is a valuable resource for anything Canal related and he contributes here on MFCC by posting Cape Cod Canal fishing reports.
Sturgis Boat Works
During the late summer of 2014 I was granted a Hobie kayak from the terrific crew over at Sturgis Boat Works in West Yarmouth, MA. That kind gesture is responsible for every piece of kayak fishing content here on MFCC. Sturgis Boat Works owner Matt Wake, general manager John Frazee and the rest of their team are top notch and I'm thankful they are part of the MFCC team.
Bob Hovey | USCG Rescue Swimmer
Bob Hovey is a rescue swimmer for the United States Coast Guard. His career has allowed him to fish off every state on the East Coast. He now shares his passion through fishing, teaching safety and water survival. His post about Cape Cod Boating Safety is a must-read.
Dex Chadsey | Teacher & MFCC Member
Member Dex Chadsey has been fishing on Cape Cod since 1963. He and his dog Gracie are excited to initiate the new fly fishing section here on MFCC. Dex will retire this June after 40 years as a teacher in Wayland, MA. He is excited to join the MFCC team! You can learn more about Dex by clicking here.
Cullen Lundholm | Cape Star Charters
Cullen has navigated the entire Eastern Seaboard, placed in a number of fishing tournaments, and fished the waters of Bermuda, the Bahamas, and Coastal New England extending out to the Gulf Stream. Cullen commercially fishes for bluefin tuna and striped bass on Cape Cod, and is on the water each fishable day from April-October. Cullen specializes in live bait fishing, and is certified with a US Coast Guard 100 ton Master's License. You can learn more about his charters by clicking here.
John D. Silva | Professional Outdoors Journalist
John D. Silva is an award winning outdoor writer and photographer with over 45 years of experience fishing inland and coastal waters in the United States and Canada. An active member in the New England Outdoor Writer's Association, he has published feature articles, columns and photos in a variety of popular outdoor publications, including On the Water Magazine, N. Carolina Sportsman, Eastern Fly Fishing, Sporting Classics, Coastal Angler, and The Fisherman magazine among others. Silva has written a wide variety of instructional and entertaining articles and columns ranging in content from fishing tips, tackle, rigging, and techniques; to outdoor humor, cooking, and even motion-sickness remedies.

Joe Ledley scores the opening goal for Celtic last night having replaced the injured Emilio Izaguirre. Picture: SNS
Graeme Macpherson, Football Writer / / Sport
IF this turns out to be Gary Hooper's final game for Celtic – and who knows what might unfold before the transfer window closes this evening –then here, perhaps, was an indication that Neil Lennon's side might not struggle for goals without him.
It was far from Celtic's best performance of the season but, after a sluggish start, they gradually eased away from Kilmarnock to win quite comfortably, moving 15 points clear at the top of the Clydesdale Bank Premier League in the process.
Celtic ended up running in four goals and, for once, Hooper did not claim a single one of them. This, in fact, was one of the Englishman's most ineffective displays of late as he squandered a number of opportunities, in the second half especially, that he would normally have buried without a second thought. When he could only divert a close-range effort against the post as injury time approached, it was the final sign that this just wasn't to be his night. If his misfiring performance is enough to dissuade any watching scouts from Norwich City or others from putting in a last-minute offer, Celtic may come to view it as a blessing in disguise.

With Hooper failing to extend his scoring streak to five consecutive games, Celtic instead shared the goals around, Adam Matthews scoring twice and Joe Ledley and Anthony Stokes also chipping in. That may give the Celtic support some solace should Hooper end up moving on amid the usual transfer frenzy that tends to surround the Barclays Premier League on deadline day.
While there has been near daily speculation about Hooper since the start of the transfer window, there have been next to no transfer rumours surrounding Kris Commons. On this evidence, Celtic will be quite happy about that. The attacker was restored to the starting line-up after starting the Scottish Communities League Cup defeat to St Mirren on the bench and made the most of his recall. Twice in the first half he saw shots strike the top of the crossbar, while he also provided assists for Ledley and Matthews' first.
It was the sort of performance that would have surely heartened Gordon Strachan ahead of his first Scotland squad announcement today. Celtic ultimately ran out worthy winners but Kilmarnock departed nursing a grievance, believing the officials had denied them what would have been the opening goal of the game after 37 minutes. Rory McKeown's cross spun over Lukasz Zaluska to the back post where it was contested by both Charlie Mulgrew and Ross Barbour. The ball then squirted goalwards prompting Zaluska to quickly smother it as if desperately trying to put out a chip pan fire.
At first look it seemed to have crossed the goal line – and Barbour certainly thought so as he darted back to the halfway line anticipating the re-start – but Stephen Mitchell, the main stand assistant, was unmoved. Literally. Standing virtually motionless on the touchline he looked towards Calum Murray, the referee, for guidance. Murray's response was to award Celtic a free-kick.
Kilmarnock's frustration would be compounded four minutes later when Celtic went in front. Commons was the creator, touching a pass to Ledley whose shot deceived Cammy Bell. The irony that Ledley, dropped from the side that lost at Hampden, was only on the field due to an injury to Emilio Izaguirre would not have been lost on Kenny Shiels, the Kilmarnock manager watching from the stand.
Shiels had stuck to his word and put out a Kilmarnock side so young that most have probably not yet started shaving, with only James Fowler and Bell over the age of 24. Their gameplan, as they sought a second victory at Celtic Park this season, unsurprisingly involved soaking up the pressure and trying to counter.
Opportunities were few and far between and yet, early in the second half, they somehow scored an equaliser. William Gros did well to shrug off an insipid challenge from Victor Wanyama to reach the goal line. His cross was inviting and Cillian Sheridan was well-placed to score, as he had done when Kilmarnock, who released Lee Johnson yesterday, tasted victory here in October.
That sparked groans all around Parkhead but not for long as, within two minutes, Celtic were back in front. It was another special goal, Commons feeding Matthews whose right-foot shot arced away from Bell and into the top corner.
Celtic were now dominant, perhaps grateful that earlier wastefulness had not proved costly. Georgios Samaras had another off night, slicing an effort into the side netting from a promising position before being denied by a fine Mo Sissoko sliding tackle when it looked as if he would benefit from a rebound. The Greek would not last the half and was replaced by Tony Watt just before the interval.
Matthews' first seemed to set the platform for Celtic to go on and rack up a few goals. That they didn't initially was down largely to the profligacy of Hooper who played as if his boots were on the wrong feet.
That could have proved costly – Barbour thumped in a spectacular volley that Zaluska scrambled away before Jeroen Tesselaar advanced from defence to lob an effort over the crossbar – but a third goal settled any lingering nerves for Celtic. Hooper was the provider with a precise through ball and substitute Stokes danced around Bell before finishing from a tight angle.
As Kilmarnock's resistance finally crumbled, Celtic added a fourth. Stokes made hay down the right and Matthews nipped in ahead of Watt to claim his second of the game.

text: How to 'produce' martensite and bainite? For what i know, martensite formed by rapid cooling from austenite phase of steel, and slow cooling to form back to it's original state. But in order to form bainite, what's the cooling rate? intermediate between rapid and slow cooling? How rapid and how slow is it exactly? I heated up furnace temp to 760 degree Celsius (1400 F), and put in Fe-0.45C for nearly 20 mins(what phase is this Fe-0.45C falls after i quench it for 20 seconds, with water as quenching media?), but the hardness readings were not equal over the whole test piece. Is it because of the quenching media, which never equally cool for the test piece, or it is due to the quenching time?

Frontline Advocacy Is Everybody's Job: ALA President Camila Alire's Presidential Initiative Offers a Systematic Approach to Staff Participation
Wong, Patty, Todaro, Julie, American Libraries
What makes this initiative different from previous advocacy initiatives is that it engages and empowers frontline library staff to work on advocacy at a different level than how library administrators, trustees, friends, and grassroots users operate," says Alire. "The traditional focus has been on how to interact with elected officials and decision-makers. Frontline advocacy is about everyone else--those not in top-level positions who deal with decisionmakers--learning to articulate the message to people both inside and outside the library."
Frontline advocacy has long been a part of Alire's approach to success. The concept made its first appearance on a national level through the "Power of Personal Persuasion," an initiative launched during Alire's tenure as president of ALA's Association of College and Research Libraries in 2005-06, so it comes as no surprise that Alire adopted frontline advocacy as part of her presidential initiative.
Community central
Frontline advocacy focuses on advocating at points of service and engagement and encourages staff and administrators in all types of libraries to work together to tell our stories about the value of libraries and the value of library staff as part of a larger theme "Libraries: The Heart of ALL Communities," which focuses both on advocacy and literacy.
"It's important to emphasize that it's not just about the patron interaction," says Marci Merola, director of ALA's Office for Library Advocacy (OLA), "it's also about everyone within a library employee's circle of influence.
"The timing of this initiative is perfect," she continues. "With so many threats to libraries around the country, we're seeing time and time again that it's citizen involvement that's saving the day. Frontline advocates are the conduits to those citizens.
"It's ironic that for every person who is reticent about getting involved in frontline advocacy, I'm finding that there is someone else who says "I do this every day ... I just didn't know that we had a name for it--I didn't know it was called frontline advocacy."
"But what's been missing up until now, and what Alire's initiative provides, is a systematic, formalized approach to frontline advocacy. It's not rocket science: I think that inherently, everyone wants to feel good about their job. And everyone who works in a library knows they're doing something towards the greater good. But can they quantify it? Can they tell their neighbors exactly how their job is helping the economy or boosting test scores in the community? If you can empower those people with the right messages--talking points, statistics and the relevance about what their library does--what they do--they're not going to stop talking about it."
ALA's Office for Library Advocacy has played a key role in developing the initiative, as did the Office for Literacy and Outreach Services. ALA's Office for Diversity and Governance Office have been part of a steering committee strategically working on Alire's initiative since her election to the post in April 2009. In addition, two member working groups were formed representing libraries of all types, including one to create and design planners and one to review content. Much broader than Alire's "Power of Personal Persuasion," frontline advocacy focuses on content specific to all types of libraries; content delivered in a variety of teaching and learning activities; and the widest target audience for involvement: all library frontline employees, at all levels of employment within organizations, including management and administration.
Online content
As libraries begin to or continue to integrate frontline advocacy into their staffs' daily routines, the reality is that the initiative becomes the core of communication between employee and patron (or friends, neighbors, relatives) no matter the type or size of library. …

I bought this along with the Microdermabrasion Scrub (also from Derma E). It is very runny and much more abrasive. I will use the remainder of it but will not order it again since the Microdermabrasion Scrub works so very, very well.

This stuff is great! Clear skin and not drying! I use it as an everyday face wash and it's perfect! Doesn't over-exfoliate but gets rid of dirt and makeup easily! Best face wash I've used in a long time!
