Food industry must get behind 'right to know' on GMO
Carey Gillam
5th January 2015The citizens 'right to know' campaign about GMOs has put the food industry on the defensive, big time, writes Carey Gillam. But that only creates the impression they have something to hide. if GMOs are as great as they claim, they should be only too glad. It's time they switched sides and got with the people they feed. more...
Genocide, ecocide and the Empire of Chaos
Professor John McMurtry
4th February 2016The true nature of western civilization is hard to grasp from within, says Professor John McMurtry, because we perceive it through media whose primary purpose is not to convey the truth, but conceal it. What is actually playing out is a global war of empire and capital against the Earth and her people, backed up by the omnipresent threat of overwhelming force. more...
After 60 years of nuclear power, the industry survives only on stupendous subsidies
Pete Dolack
4th January 2016Almost 60 years since the world's first commercial nuclear power station began to deliver power to the UK's grid, the industry remains as far from being able to cover its costs as ever, writes Pete Dolack. But while unfunded liabilities increase year by year, governments are still willing to commit their taxpayers' billions to new nuclear plants with no hope of ever being viable. more...
Farm expansion driving US native bee declines
Beyond Pesticides
28th December 2015Wild bee decline is closely associated with the advance of intensive farming and habitat loss, a new study shows. It follows an earlier paper that linked 'delayed action' decline of wild bees to exposure to pesticides including fungicides - previously considered 'bee-safe'. more...
Sustainable fishing: sockeye salmon and Native American nets in the Pacific Northwest
Kevin Bailey
3rd January 2015A salmon fishing cooperative in the Pacific Northwest draws on indigenous practices and state of the art technology to be among the world's most sustainable and selective fisheries, writes Kevin Bailey. With its clean harvesting techniques, minmimal bycatch, 99% survival rates for released fish, renewable energy supply and efficient supply chain, it sets a standard for all to follow. more...
After COP21, Australia's moment in history: will it ban the Carmichael coal mine?
Justine Bell, The University of Queensland
18th December 2015The Paris Agreement is facing its first big test in Queensland, Australia, writes Justine Bell. After a long process beset by legal challenges, the massive Carmichael coal mine is inching closer to approval - which would open up the entire 250,000 sq.km Galilee basin and its 28 billion tonnes of coal to exploitation. Both state and federal governments have the power to ban it. But will they? more...
Obama's Paris climate pledges are legally durable - up to a point
Robert Percival, University of Maryland
17th December 2015President Obama believes he can keep the promises he made on behalf of the USA at COP21, writes Robert Percival. And he's right - with or without the approval of Congress. But ultimately, it's up to US electors to maintain the political momentum for climate action. A future administration could put all his policies into reverse - no matter how foolish that would be. more...
And this is austerity? Central banks have trillions for speculation, none for people
Pete Dolack
17th December 2015In this new age of austerity money is a perpetual struggle for the public sector and ordinary people, writes Pete Dolack. Yet central banks have squandered trillions to boost profits in the financial sector, reward speculation and push up real estate values. In fact, the world is awash with money as never before - our money. Just don't expect to get your hands on it any time soon. more...
Philippines Supreme Court bans GMO crop trials
13th December 2015The Philippines were meant to be the US's sandbox for GMO development and penetration into southeast Asia, but that has all changed with a Supreme Court decision to ban GMO crop trials pending the development of new biosafety protocols. more...
WTO is back. And this time, no more Mr Nice Guy
Polly Jones / Global Justice Now
13th December 2015Overtaken by massive regional trade agreements like TPP, TTIP, CETA and TINA, the World Trade Organisation has slipped into the background, writes Polly Jones. But this week it's back with a vengeance, with its first big meeting in two years. The US's plan is to globalise the investment protection regime set out in the TTP, and open a new era of corporate rule and the eradication of democracy. more...
The pro-GMO DARK Bill is back - but it cannot survive the light of truth
Steven M. Druker
11th December 2015Pro-GMO US senators have a dastardly plan to deny states the right to require GMO labeling, writes Steven M. Druker, by attaching their DARK Bill as a rider to the Appropriations Bill next week. Now is the the time to wake up senators to the Bill's true intent, and to the deceit, illegal behaviour and scientific falsification that has kept the dangers of GMO foods a well kept secret - so far. more...
Climate 'academics for hire' conceal fossil fuel funding
Lawrence Carter & Maeve McClenaghan / Greenpeace Energydesk
9th December 2015Investigative reporters working for Greenpeace UK's Energydesk have uncovered a nexus of senior academics willing to accept large sums of money from fossil fuel companies to write reports and newspaper articles published under their own names and university affiliations, without declaring the funding.

COP21: call for international treaty on rights of nature and communities
Hal Rhoades
8th December 2015A new movement has been launched at COP21 in Paris to give legal effect to the rights of nature and communities, writes Hal Rhoades, providing effective protection against the gross environmental damage and human rights violations that accompany extractive industries from mining to oil development and agri-business projects, and which underlie climate change. more...
Bloodbath in Yellowstone: the park's plan to slaughter 1,000 wild bison
George Wuerthner
14th December 2015Yellowstone Park is home to America's last pure-bred wild bison, writes George Wuerthner. Yet the Park's management is planning to kill around a thousand of these precious animals this winter. Ostensibly it's to protect cattle on public lands near the park from brucellosis. But bison have never been known to transmit the disease to them. The real reason is to keep all the pasture for livestock. more...
Victory: COP21 sets 1.5C 'long term temperature goal'
Kyla Mandel, Brendan Montague & Oliver Tickell
5th December 2015The latest text of the Paris Agreement on climate change published today sets 1.5C as its 'long term temperature goal', half a degree lower than previously agreed. It's a big victory for poor 'climate vulnerable' countries - and a blow for Saudi Arabia. more...
Paris climate talks are doomed to failure - like all the others
Steffen Böhm, University of Essex
1st December 2015The most significant feature of COP21 is the topics that never even made it onto the agenda for discussion, writes Steffen Böhm. And the biggest of all the growth-driven economic system that ultimately thwarts all efforts at sustainability, as it drives ever increasing consumption of energy and resources. more...
Syria: an illegal war for energy, capital and empire
Colin Todhunter
28th November 2015As protestors gather to oppose yet another illegal war in the Middle East, Colin Todhunter asks why David Cameron is so keen to bomb. Of course there's access to oil and routes for gas pipelines, but beyond that, it's about re-entrenching militarism into our national culture, and re-asserting the dominance of capital over people. more...
EPA bans toxic pesticide mix on GM crops
The Ecologist
26th November 2015The US Environmental Protection Agency has just withdrawn its authorization for a toxic mix of two herbicides, glyphosate and 2,4-D, to be used on GM crops. The move came in response to a lawsuit claiming the initial registration was unlawful. more...
Russia's shot down jet is sending us a powerful message: keep well out of Syria!
Oliver Tickell
24th November 2015Turkey's shooting down of a Russian jet near its border with Syria has just revealed the real nature of the war, writes Oliver Tickell, and sharply illustrates the dangers of getting involved in a conflict that is driven more by a battle of two gas pipelines than a clash of ideologies. The message for the UK - keep well out! Or if we are serious about crushing IS, best join in with Assad and Putin. more...
Triumph of digital toxicology: why the US won't regulate deadly chemicals
Valerie Brown and Elizabeth Grossman
27th November 2015A six-month investigation finds that the revolving door between government and the chemical industry has led the EPA to rely on easily manipulated toxicology research carried out entirely on computers - and this 'in silico' science often trumps both biology and epidemiology when it comes to regulatory action, or lack of it. The result? Toxic substances remain in everyday products. more...
Who believes in the big bad coywolf?
Roland Kays, North Carolina State University
20th November 2015Novel canids are hunting the forests of Eastern North America from Florida to Labrador, writes Roland Kays, where hybrids of coyote, dog and wolf have evolved into highly competitive forms. But is it the evolution of new species? If left in long term isolation, perhaps - but that's not about to happen. Genetic mixing and evolution still have a long way to run. more...
Peru rainforest defender threatened: 'we will kill you'
The Ecologist
19th November 2015Death threats to an indigenous forest defender in Peru have followed his success in closing down an illegal palm oil operation on his tribe's lands carried out by a member company of the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil, now meeting in Kuala Lumpur. more...
Sustainable palm oil? RSPO's greenwashing and fraudulent audits exposed
Chris Lang / REDD Monitor
19th November 2015A new investigation of palm oil plantations, companies and auditors has found that the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil is failing to deliver on its promise, writes Chris Lang. Widespread fraud, collusion between auditors and companies, conflicts of interest, and a flawed complaints system mean that RSPO-certified palm oil may be destructively and illegally produced. more...
Israel to annex Golan Heights after 'billion barrel' oil find
Jonathan Cook / Middle East Eye
15th November 2015After a massive oil find in Syria's Golan Heights, occupied by Israel since 1967, Israel is asking President Obama to recognise its annexation of the territory, writes Jonathan Cook. To consolidate its hold, plans are afoot to quadruple Israeli settler numbers to 100,000. more...
From Yucatan to Arizona, from Sonora to New Mexico: the return of the jaguar
Kent Paterson
13th November 2015Mexico is determined to restore populations of its largest native predator, the jaguar, to long term viability, writes Kent Paterson. That means creating millions of acres of ecological corridors across the country, and joining with US colleagues to secure large areas of habitat in southwestern states, where recent sightings give hope that jaguars are returning to their former range. more...

It's that time of year, when we give thanks for things we too often take for granted. We should really be grateful all year long. But at least there's November. If you're conservative like me, there are easy reasons to be ungrateful this month -- but, fact is, we live in a great country and the blessings are abundant.
I'm grateful for Nonie Darwish. She's written a book called "Now They Call Me Infidel" (Sentinel, 2006). She says that "Radical Islam has declared war on America and on the West, and the majority of Muslims either support or make excuses for terrorism." She adds, "Of course, not all Muslims are terrorists, but the fear, defensiveness and silence of the majority is 'heard' loud and clear as agreement by the radicals." Egyptian-born, she lives in America now and has become a Christian. But her witness may serve to help moderate Muslims look within and the rest of us to know what we face.
I'm grateful for Mark Steyn. He's written a book "America Alone: The End of the World As We Know It" (Regnery, 2006). He's, in part, Nonie Darwish's welcoming committee. In order to win this war we're in, we have to help reform Islam. We have to do things like support real women's rights in the Muslim world, "End the Iranian regime," and make sure we're not funding mosques, think tanks, and other outfits that teach jihad. Tough stuff, but real life.
I'm grateful, too, for people who don't write books. I've run out of shelves and my piles are capsizing.
I'm grateful for politicians who do what's right because it's the right thing. Some will forever ridicule me for insisting Pennsylvania voters wake up to the clear-thinker who was their senator, Rick Santorum, now on his way out of office. But the rest of us should be encouraging such a thing.
I'm grateful for people willing to serve, despite the sacrifice to their families. A slate of former judicial nominees -- Samuel Alito, John Roberts, Bill Pryor, Miguel Estrada, come to mind.
I'm grateful that it's only 2006. And despite everything happening behind the scenes, the fact of the matter is there is time for someone good to make a case to the American people that he is a leader.

He'll get to play this game on his ground," said David Latterman, a San Francisco political consultant who works with moderates like Newsom.
"We forget what the average person out there thinks or cares about," he continued, referring to San Francisco political insiders. "Local city politics bores more people. The stuff he hasn't done well is stuff nobody cares about."
Latterman says Newsom has an amazing ability to survive his many scandals and shortcomings and remain popular. "The guy is Teflon, he really is. Newsom is a charming guy. In a crowd, people like him."
This isn't an assessment everyone agrees with. Certainly Newsom can come off as arrogant, a trait displayed during his "it's coming, whether you like it or not" speech on same-sex marriage that the Yes on Proposition 8 campaign used so effectively against him in television ads.
O'Connor said she recently moderated a panel Newsom was on and wasn't impressed. "I was amazed at how facile he is. He has a long way to go to being able to connect to the person."
Cook and Latterman say Newsom has presided over a city that has shown real leadership on health care, environmentalism, technological innovation, and other issues Newsom is running on. "Newsom, as the leader of the city, gets credit for that," Latterman said.
That may infuriate San Franciscans who know more about Newsom, but that anger isn't likely to cause Newsom too many problems on the campaign trail. The stronger he gets hit by San Francisco progressives, the more he can use those attacks to explain why SF wackos are so hard to work with.
"He's trying to turn all those things into positives, saying that's why everyone hates him. It's Arnold 101," Cook said.
Newsom's playing hard to the youth vote, boasting of how many fans on Facebook and followers on Twitter that he has but not all his positions are in step with young voters.
Ammiano noted how Newsom opposes his legislation to legalize and tax marijuana, an issue that polls strongly with young people and that could help the state's fiscal crisis. Ammiano said he asked many of Newsom's young volunteers at the recent California Democratic Convention (although few were from San Francisco) about the issue, and they were surprised at Newsom's position. "A lot of the young people who supported him at the Democratic convention did not know he's not supporting my marijuana bill [Assembly Bill 390]," Ammiano told us.
There's also the fact that Newsom opposed this moment's big change candidate, President Barack Obama. Instead, he joined with most political establishment Democratic stalwarts and backing Hillary Clinton in the primaries.
In fact, some of Obama's California supporters are looking to bring a candidate who shares their values into the race and have formed a group called Change Candidate for California to recruit a gubernatorial candidate.
"We're not convinced that Mayor Newsom is the best candidate to lead us out of this crisis," said Steve Fowler, one of the group's founders. "We are inspired by the Obama campaign and we want a leader who can reengage Californians with their state."
O'Connor also thinks there's a good possibility others will get into the race: "It's not a good field on either side and you may see some people come in as a result."
Yet for now, Newsom the candidate looks like a strong contender, despite his myriad flaws.
"But the question is, How does that brand govern?" Cook said.
Being the postpartisan maverick may play well at the polls, but Gov. Schwarzenegger is proving that it translates into being unable to govern the state effectively or find common ground between the two polarized parties.
"It's a good campaign position," Cook said. "But I don't think this is a viable governing strategy for California."

In 2008, there were 10 VIPR teams and today there are 37 VIPR teams. The VIPR program has a $100 million annual budget and was responsible for—wait for it—"8,800 unannounced checkpoints…outside of airports last year," reports the New York Times.
In other words, the VIPR teams made 8,800 unauthorized passes at Americans in 2012 in addition to and completely separate from all the gropey and unconstitutional TSA searches that were conducted in 2012.
If you have read the Constitution, you know there is no "Grope or Scan" clause allowing government employees to feel you up, unannounced and without probable cause. VIPR security processes are in violation of the law of the land, specifically the Fourth Amendment, which states:
"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."
Comedy Central host Stephen Colbert summed up the TSA's VIPR program on his August 13 show: "There is one group that is always dishing out the frisky buffet: The TSA. Because they have the safety of this nation in the palms of their hands."
We run into enough creepers at the airport as it is. I am pretty sure none of us want to give up an even bigger chunk of our paychecks so that the government can send VIPR creepers in blue latex gloves after us everywhere we go—from the D.C. Metro to the rodeo. Can I get an Amen on that, brothers and sisters?

text: Recalling the recent thread about Aperture and how the current output of contemporary artists seem to depress some, and/or baffle others, I would like to ask the question: Can a photograph be funny AND be a work of art at the same time? I stand on the ground that a photograph can be a work of art, but I could not for the longest time think of having ever laughed during an exhibition. Many great photographs are contemplative, touching, moving, provocating, but which of them make you laugh? Have you ever peed your pants watching a great print? If not, why would laughter be evacuated from the range of emotions that good photography and art in general should convey to their viewers? Is it even possible to tell a joke with a picture? James Joyce is one of my favorite author not jut because I'm a geek and actually bother to follow the arcane details of his writing, but also because he's so damn funny while being a brilliant writer at the same time. Great satirists like Swift, Sterne (also Irishmen, come to think of it), Voltaire, Dickens can be hilarious, but writing and other narrative art have the benefit of temporality, which is often essential to buildup a situation leading to a punch. Photography is not essentially temporal, though you may appreciate separate elements of the picture in a succession ("diachronically" if you will) rather than simultaneously ("synchronically"). I presume it is harder to create a reaction like laughter, that needs a buildup, with a medium in which everything is visible at once. However, I stand convinced of the humorous expressive power of pictures after having seen a great photo spread of the Little Britain actors in UK Vogue last month (for those foreign to the series, LB is a BBC sketch comedy act figuring various impersonations of British type characters). So who laughs in the museums?

Forty-five-year-old Jeffrey Dusseault of Marquette was the victim of a fatal snowmobile accident late Tuesday night in West Branch Township.
The Marquette County Sheriff's Office is investigating the crash that happened at approximately 11 p.m. near the intersection of Heidtman Road and County Road 545 North.
The snowmobile had been traveling west on Heidtman Road, which ended at County Road 545 North, when Dusseault failed to stop at the intersection and failed to negotiate the turn onto the county road. The machine crossed both lanes of the county road and struck a snow bank on the west side of the road, sending Dusseault and the snowmobile airborne. The machine struck a tree as it landed. Dusseault was knocked off the snowmobile and landed by the machine.
Dusseault had been wearing a helmet at the time of the crash. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
The crash scene and victim were located by family members when they went looking for him after he didn't arrive at his destination as expected.
The Marquette County Sheriff's Office was assisted at the scene by Skandia West Branch First Responder and Fire, Chocolay Township Police Department, and Marquette General EMS.
Alcohol and speed are believed to be factors in the crash which is still under investigation.

The circuit breakers provide for market-wide trading halts during a severe market decline as measured by a single day decrease in the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA). There are three circuit breaker thresholds—10%, 20%, and 30%—set by the markets at point levels that are calculated at the beginning of each quarter. The formulas for these thresholds are set forth in the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) Rule 80B.
For example, for the fourth quarter of 2010, the Level One (10%) circuit breaker is set at 1,050 points, the Level Two (20%) circuit breaker at 2,100 points, and the Level Three (30%) circuit breaker at 3,150 points.

Mars Curiosity rover is no longer in safe mode, says NASA
On March 1, we reported that NASA's Mars Curiosity rover had experienced its first big problem, an issue with a corrupted on-board computer that prevented the robot from going into sleep mode. Fortunately, the machine has a secondary backup computer, but the malfunction prompted Curiosity to be put into Safe Mode as a precaution. NASA announced earlier today that it has been transitioned back into its active status.

On April 7 Anchorage set an all-time record for snowfall in a single season. It was the end of a winter that seemed a little too long for many.
Two weeks later, most of that snow is gone. Long-buried dirt, dead grass and leafless branches replace the drifts. Water replaces ice. Daylight increases to encompass most waking hours. And Alaskans exult with a sense of rebirth nicely captured in the conclusion of Tom Sexton's poem, "April."
this is what it means
to be holy, so
this is what it means
to be saved.
That poem is one of five by the former state poet laureate featured in the latest work by one of America's most respected and performed serious composers, Libby Larsen. "Alaska Spring" received its world premiere Saturday night by the Alaska Chamber Singers in a program that will be repeated at 4 p.m. today at St. Andrew Church in Eagle River.
"I believe in renewal," she said. "What I found in Tom's poems is his ability to look for the slightest sign of life -- the wing of the raven, the fiddlehead fern just coming out. He has an extraordinary ability to extract life from what appears to be death. Even though there's a darkness in many of the poems, I find an intense ... uh ... I don't have a word for it. But I do have a chord."
She outlined the notes of the chord in her head: E-flat, G, B-flat, C, D, F and A. That, with a little tweaking, is every note in the diatonic scale. It should sound like mush. Instead it comes out as a luxuriously augmented, friendly E-flat major chord.
Such sounds -- elegantly thoughtful yet as stimulating as a great lungful of fresh air -- are something of a hallmark in Larsen's work. And there's a lot of that work. She counts more than 500 pieces in her catalogue, in every genre from solo instruments to operas (one based on "Frankenstein").
No one writes that many compositions without having a lot of other musicians wanting to play them. As prolific as she is, Larsen has more requests for commissions than she can possibly handle.
So when Alaska Chamber Singers director David Hagen contacted the Grammy-winning composer about writing something to celebrate the group's 25th season, he expected to hear a firm, "No."
"I didn't give her much notice and didn't think she'd be available," he said. "But she said she was in the middle of writing a new opera and needed a break."
In a phone interview, Larsen likened writing an opera to "building a whole skyscraper and decorating all of the office suites by yourself."
She also admitted, "I love to write for fine choirs, so I was thrilled with the idea of creating a piece for the Alaska Chamber Singers."
Another reason for taking the job had to do with where the request came from. "I have a personal mission, and that is to set the poetry of one poet from every state in the union," Larsen said. "Alaska makes number 24."
Hagen sent Larsen samples of verse by Alaska poets and she found herself zeroing in on Sexton.
"As I read the poems, it struck me that there was a piece emerging -- a cycle. I just passed 60, so I'm thinking about cycles."
She called the new piece, titled "Alaska Spring," "a cycle of renewal."
Spring theme
Hagen was delighted with the results. "Someone with her reputation, we were expecting maybe a two-minute choral piece. Instead, 'Alaska Spring' is a main part of the program. It's 10 minutes long and includes a string quartet."
There's a temptation among writers of choir music to treat any instrumental accompaniment rather perfunctorily, he said. "But Libby put as much thought into the quartet as she did to the singers."
The selected verses, all from Sexton's 2009 collection "For the Sake of the Light" (University of Alaska Press), link together in a common theme.
"April," the first number in the set, reflects on the slow awakening of the world from the "coffin" of winter into the ecstasy of resurrection. "Extending Range" notes the departure of ravens and the coming of hummingbirds, "their small wings wild with desire."
In "Fiddlehead" the poet marvels at the beauty and resilience of the fern as he prepares to harvest the first spring heads. "Juncos" imitates the tapping of beaks on bark by "the first sparrows to return." The final poem, "Walking the Marsh," lists the marvels of Alaska wilderness from berries to bears and concludes with the author's rapturous declaration that he has "fallen in love with the world."
Larsen consciously selected the opening and closing poems for the similar mood of their climaxes. "I wanted to close the loop," she said. "A song cycle is different from a collection of songs."
She found rich musical fodder in the images in the text. "I'm delighted when I discover in a poem opportunities to enhance the image with duration and pitch." It's not a matter of "gross, literal" musical depiction, she said, but rather trying to construct "a fine architecture that shows the words well."
In "Alaska Spring" one hears the lumbering of mastodons and the soft curl of an opening fiddlehead. "The fern spiraling toward the light is extraordinary," she said, "because it doesn't unfurl quickly."
And then there are those juncos. "I kept trying not to set that poem. I kept looking for another bird poem." Sexton's collection also features poems about gulls, dippers, owls, ptarmigan -- a whole aviary. "But how could you pass up an opportunity with the 'dit-dit-dit'?" (Sexton's imitation of the bird's telegraphic pecking.)
"It was like juncos were landing on my desk -- and in my head. In the end, I could not not set it."
Watering the roots
Renewal has been a theme in Larsen's life's work in yet another way. She was among a small core of Minnesota musicians in the early 1970s who launched what would be come the American Composers Forum, an organization that has facilitated new music performances throughout the country.
At that time atonality ruled the realm of contemporary serious music. But, 50 years after the introduction of that sound, listeners had not warmed to it. Minimalism and neo-romanticism were considered oddities and widely dismissed as lacking the intellectual heft of Arnold Schoenberg's analytical scores -- intriguing to musicologists, often unpleasant or, worse, tedious for listeners.
"The roots planted by the generation of American composers before World War II became dormant for a while," Larsen said. "The place those composers made for themselves was graduate departments at universities. There they were under pressure to do original and innovative work. The problem arose that there was this lack of desire in audiences to learn the language of every single composer.
"When I was in grad school, we looked around and saw a kind of loneliness. The question for the new generation was: How can we create a community for composers to work with each other and work with performers to develop music that speaks directly to the abstract essential human emotions of an audience?
"We started the Minnesota Composers Forum (later the American Composers Forum) as a way to put on some concerts. But, even in the first year, found out that this was a nationwide need. And the need was to write music that tries to communicate what it means to be alive."
Music like Larsen's, said Hagen. "She has a sound that most people can appreciate fairly easily," he said. A sound that would have been snubbed by musical academia in the 1960s but increasingly dominates the realm of new music. Most of the pieces commissioned by Musica Nova, a group that fosters new music premiered by the Anchorage Symphony, owe more to Larsen than to Schoenberg.
She's not inclined to rest on her elder stateswoman status, however. She's presently working on a song cycle on words attributed to Mary Magdalene in ancient apocryphal Coptic texts ("kind of a theater piece for one woman," she explained), some chamber pieces, including one for oboe and banjo ("a great deal of fun") and that new opera, details of which will not be made public until next month.
Away from the composing desk, she maintains an exceptionally active lifestyle. She recently finished the Twin Cities Marathon with a time of 3:58:04, fast enough to qualify for the Boston Marathon.
"But I won't be in Boston," she noted, "because I'll be in Alaska."

The working title of this film was Flight from Fury. Street Bandits shares some plot points with the 1938 Republic production I Stand Accused, which was directed by John H. Auer, written by Gordon Kahn and Alex Gottlieb and starred Robert Cummings, Helen Mack and Lyle Talbot (see AFI Catalog of Feature Films, 1931-40). The 1938 film was inspired by a young 1930s lawyer named Dixie Davis, who was known as the "kid mouthpiece."

Sewanee Review
Volume 121, Number 4, Fall 2013
pp. 536-540 | 10.1353/sew.2013.0111
Crossing Spirit Lake in Early Winter
Eyes burning. The slashing snow.
Since dusk a gale had swept
the frozen lake—snow drifted
underfoot—our boots slipped.
Night left but the thin light
of glazed ice or none at all.
"Stay close!" we warned. Most gripped
hands. Or linked arms. Only
our boldest—those few—broke
free. While they fled across
new ice we heard that first
crack! Another. The third
like a distant lightning
strike. But no more. How far
had they gone? When the windblown
snow settled we found
no trace. Then all the living
witnessed an apparition:
Every face luminous
with its fever—the brief
haste of a flare until
it faded before us. Yes,
and the pulse in each voice—
how their souls urged us not
to lose heart. As we pushed
on we cried out their names
over the snow-scrim and bare
ice. No distinct trail to track.
Finally, "Are you there?"
we pleaded. Searching, slow
step by step through the dark.
Lines at 2 A.M. on the Sea of Cortez
The bright morning brought its mirage—
The far shore and one shadow-free
inlet loomed before us. Until
Two gulls swooped across our deckhouse.
That pair rising with a single shriek
into the sudden overcast.
Then it was dusk all day. Humid,
warm, the sullen light of a low sky.
When evening arrived without stars
we saw the vast gulf grow formless—
Brackish tide pools, coves, a pocked reef
and each white beach slipped out of sight
with the sea snakes. Old turtles, all
but blind, cleaving dense clouds of silt.
The swarming crabs, hammerhead sharks,
swordfish, prowling rays. The nearly
level sea itself invisible . . .
Our boat bobs among shallow troughs,
horse-like, irritable before
the worst weather. In water quiet
but not at rest—the sleepless stir
of a tense calm. Now blue-black clouds
quake with storm light, and we know
this night has a life of its own,
we hear it breathing in the dark.
In Wind and Rain
Crossing the high meadow above Wolf River
the wind deepens the waves of tall grass
bowing beneath it. Two blackbirds startled
into flight complain zeeer! zeeer! Magpies row
over the sweet clover and the day glows
as it darkens. A fresh scent fills the air.
When rain arrives the pelting drops rattle
each patch of dry nettles. A searching rain
takes the shape of everything it touches:
nests, nettles, weathered outcrop, seething
grass. The wind sweeps headlong down to the brim
of the meadow where a footpath glimmers,
already mud-slick, sluiced by onrushing
rain. At dusk the wind stalls, hovers. Withholds
itself. Gathering not time, which it scatters,
but eternity in a storm of leaves—
the one large-limbed tree towering over
the fence, the black iron gate flung open
to our hillside cemetery. The gale grasps,
wrenches loose, tilts, uproots the ancient
memorial elm. It lays the quivering
canopy, crushed boughs, and that great trunk,
its rough-ridged bark black with wet, prone
among the graves. All night scouring white pine
crosses, stone tablets, urns, rainwater pools
then welters. Once the runoff starts the elm
plummets the slope, plunging into Wolf River,
its turbulent current rushing downstream
with the low urgent roaring that persists
in wind and rain. Together now they drive
the river. Writhing, churning, it never rests.
The Angel of Solitude
At daybreak I knelt by the shallows.
Ripples nudged the skiff—pine green
paint worn thin from knocking
against our pier. One dead
loon drifted ashore
overnight—we'll bury
the remains this morning.
You're here, spirit, silent
as ever while you gather
to yourself the shrill squall
of the young gull wading out
from the sedge grass. High-stepping
over a broken oarlock,
driftwood, damp stones.
He quiets now. Moves on
as I walk onto the pier. Minnows
dart, disappear among cedar
pilings sunk into bedrock
of the spring-fed lake. Its deep
current flowing through
finger-long fronds, tendrils.
In that dim filtered light lie
cloud-colored bones delicate
as feathers. Hunters' shell
casings. Once the gull reaches
mid-water he perches
on the buoy bobbing
in a low wind. The world

Grow up, that jumpsuit is last season
Recently, I received a wonderfully designed card, of two adorable and impeccably dressed children posing in grey trenchcoats, informing me of the new festive collection available at Armani Junior at Delhi's DLF Emporio. When it opened last month, Armani Junior had a white kurta for boys on display in the window, created especially for its India launch. It didn't look any different from a kurta you'd see at Fabindia, except it costs over Rs 6,000.
Are Indian parents really spending this kind of money on dressing their children? I remember seeing a pair of five-year-old twin girls dressed in identical Burberry overcoats and that image has never quite left me. I know many parents who get conned (me included) into buying expensive toys like whirring helicopters that magically stop working the minute you leave the shop, but shopping for kid couture is a choice you make. No child is going to insist on wearing a kurta for Rs 6,000. The snooty brands with signature styles, like the Burberry's check for example, shrewdly make kids clothes that are miniaturised versions of their bestselling adult lines, which is what makes them irresistible to parents who have already bought into the brand. It's interesting to note that most of Burberry's kids stores are in Asia and the Middle East.
That a market exists for kids designer stuff is not news, even though everywhere in the world, it's targeted at the one percent. There are a number of other premium brands such as Chicco, Les Petit and Tommy Hilfiger for kids in Delhi. Clearly they're all doing fine, if they can afford sky-high rentals in top malls. Indian designers have ventured into kids wear with no particular impact, and more as an extension of what they were already doing. Rohit Bal had a label, Bal Bachche, which I no longer see around, and Anshu Arora Sen did a lovely range of girls clothes at Bombay Electric, but I've never spotted any of her stuff in Delhi. Gauri & Nainika do some really beautiful party dresses for little girls, and from what I can make out, they're easily the bestselling among Indian kids designers.

More than at any time since he retired 11 years ago, John Elway has closely followed the present-day Broncos.
While Elway had always kept up, he's been watching nearly every play this season thanks to his Monday morning radio gig.
So what does Elway think of the streaking-and-slumping Broncos?
"I don't think they're as bad as they're playing right now," Elway said Sunday. "I don't think they were as good as they were playing early. They had a lot of good things happen to them. And now the tide has kind of turned and things aren't going their way. But I think they're somewhere in between the start and where they are now."

Elway joined his good friend Gary Zimmerman at a Van Heusen promotion that asked fans to vote for the Pro Football Hall of Fame class of 2010 that is certain to include Jerry Rice and Emmitt Smith — the NFL's all-time leading receiver and rusher, respectively.
Fans can go to fanschoice.com to participate. Elway said his former tight end Shannon Sharpe will eventually be voted in, although he could get squeezed out again in the next voting. Steve Atwater and Terrell Davis are two former Broncos teammates Elway wants to see receive stronger consideration.
The Broncos are expected to have a third player represented in Canton, Ohio, next year as former running back Floyd Little is a finalist by way of the senior's committee.
"What's fun is there are so many great players coming up for eligibility right now, especially in our era," Elway said. "So there's going to be some guys who might not get in their first year but eventually will get it. Hopefully, it won't be 25 years like Floyd had to wait."
There are former Broncos players waiting, and there is Elway's former coach Mike Shanahan, who also has had his name dropped in Hall of Fame conversations. There's sentiment Shanahan must prove he can coach a team that doesn't have Elway as quarterback to the Super Bowl.
"I don't know about that," Elway said. "I would hope he could get in based on where he is now, but I don't think he's done. I think he'll continue to do things to justify he deserves to get in."

Form-Fitted Cloth Diapers: Quality Test Performance and Bacterial Analysis after Use and Laundering
Stone, Janis, Brackelsberg, Phyllis, Journal of Family and Consumer Sciences
Abstract: Two form-fitted cloth diaper designs were analyzed for quality assurance and microbial contamination. Formfitted cloth diapers subjected to 150 laboratory launderings showed increased leakage as the number of launderings increased. Water repellency of the diaper cover remained constant with Design I but decreased with Design II. Microbial analysis did not show significant E-coli contamination after form-fitted cloth diapers were used by children under 2 years old and laundered by mothers at home. Parents investing in form-fitted cloth diapers can get a minimum number of diapers at first then use larger sizes as the child grows.
Disposable diapers have been widely accepted by mothers of infants and small children since their introduction 30 years ago. However, recent concern about solid waste disposal costs and landfill inventories, which clearly have shown the impact of disposable diapers, have led some policymakers to recommend a return to the use of cloth diapers (Lehrburger, Mullen, & Jones, 1991).
Recognizing the convenience of the form-fitted disposable diapers that tended not to leak, a few apparel manufacturers in the early 1990s introduced form-fitted cloth diapers (FFCDs). Two such designs, designated Design I and Design II, were obtained for use by 20 mothers with children under 2 years old for the purposes of this study and were described previously (Stone & Brackelsberg, 1997).
Although historical family use of flat cloth diapers suggested that cloth diapers could be maintained in a satisfactory sanitary condition, the FFCD designs presented a different laundering problem. The FFCD manufacturers' instructions recommended low-temperature washing and drying, non-chlorine bleach, and mild detergent. It was unknown whether the multiple layers and stitched-in-place design might act as a filter preventing the wash water from flushing out soil and bacteria, especially with the low temperatures specified. It was unknown whether the attached waterproof cover on the Design I diaper might prevent soil removal and microbial cleanup. For sanitation purposes in diaper care, liquid chlorine bleach and hot water washing was usually recommended (Stone, 1990).
The purposes of this research were to (a) review related literature, (b) determine whether mothers' home laundering could maintain FFCDs in a sanitary condition without buildup of microbial contamination over a 12-week period of use, and (c) examine the diaper performance on physical tests following repeated laboratory launderings.
Literature Review
A recommendation that cloth diapers should be promoted as more environmentally sound than disposable diapers came from a study of environmental impact and lifecycle analysis sponsored by the National Association of Diaper Services (Lehrburger et al., 1991).
However, another cradle-to-grave environmental analysis of cloth versus disposable diapers concluded that "both single-use and reusable diapering systems use quantifiable amounts of raw materials, energy, and water; and have quantifiable releases to the air, water, and land...It is not clear if solid waste is more important than water consumption...." (Franklin Associates Ltd., 1992). This study included home laundering, but the focus was on differences in atmospheric emissions, waterborne wastes, and solid waste generated from diaper use with assumptions based on costs in communities of more than 100,000 people. These environmental studies about diapering alternatives did not consider the family perspective or the effectiveness of home laundering in sanitation and soil removal.
The effects of various home laundering treatments were investigated by Janecek, Manikowske, and Bromel (1981). They determined detergent concentration had no effect on bacteria surviving after home laundering, but that bacterial count was reduced in home laundering by increasing water temperature, using a disinfectant, and drying at 160 F. …

Optics suggest: (1) CEO couldn't keep his p-nis in his pants; (2) CEO gets shaken down; (3) shareholders pay for CEO's personal life choices. This is how they spend the money they raised from the last secondary (from which the stock price still hasn't recovered?)
Long-term, this doesn't change the investment thesis. Short-term, on a low-volume stock like this, shortsellers will give the price a pounding, and innocent investors will likely be receiving margin calls.
I'm not short (shorting TNK, long OGXI), but won't be adding on this dip (crash?) because the jury is still out about the CEO's judgment over this office romance and whether management can be trusted in the future not to waste corporate assets on their personal lives.
Not looking forward to tomorrow's bloodbath.
Sentiment: Hold
The filing states that the affair is a "developing personal relationship." If it's ongoing and on good terms, why does the Board need to pay Burris not to sue? Smells like a shakedown to me.
"If Ms. Burris agrees to release all claims against the Company, the Company has agreed to engage Ms. Burris as a consultant for a period of one year, beginning on the date she agrees to release all claims ... . Following the end of the consultancy, if Ms. Burris agrees to release all claims against the Company, the Company will pay Ms. Burris a lump sum payment of approximately $410,000, which is consistent with the severance payment in her prior employment contract ..."
Why couldn't Cormack be like other CEOs and just bang his secretary? Biotech investing is risky enough.
BTW, anyone seen her picture (Google it)? What a waste of money!
I added today @$12.40 the low of the day via a fixed limit price trade.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
All valid points but I don't see the financial hit as being that significant. The previous CFO, Steve Anderson, also resigned abruptly under mysterious circumstances (though without the giant buyout), and the company left the position vacant for a year or so until they settled on the talented Ms. Burris. I suspect they'll do the same now, although they no longer have Cameron Lawrence filling in in a more junior position.
Cormack's judgment takes a bigger hit, but it's not unusual for CEOs to display lapses in that area. I still think this will blow over fairly quickly.

On March 31, 2014, the U.S. Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in Alice Corporation Pty. Ltd.. v. CLS Bank International, et al., a case involving the issue of whether claims to computer-implemented inventions are directed to patent-eligible subject matter.
Section 101 of the Patent Act provides that "any new and useful process, machine, manufacture, or composition of matter, or any new and useful improvement thereof" may qualify as patent eligible subject matter. The Supreme Court has recognized the broad nature of these subject matter categories and has thus created three specific exceptions to the categories of patentable subject matter, namely "laws of nature, natural phenomena, and abstract ideas." Thus, in the Alice case, the Court will look at whether an "abstract idea" may be included in a patent claim and still result in a determination of patent-eligible subject matter of that claim under Section 101.
