A camera is a device used to capture images, either as still photographs or as sequences of moving images (film or video). The term as well as the modern-day camera evolved from the Latin camera obscura for "dark chamber" for an early mechanism of projecting images where an entire room functioned as a real-time imaging system.
The first Grand Theft Auto game to feature an interactable camera was Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, although, like later games Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, the player could only use it in one mission. Also in GTA VC tourists are seen with cameras even though when you kill them you can't get their camera. In GTA Liberty City Stories you can get a camera by doing the Tourist missions and when you get the camera you steal it.
The device was also available in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, albeit with more functionality, allowing the player to use it freely. It can be used in San Fierro to collect snapshots, which is required to achieve 100% completion. Pictures taken with the camera can be saved. If the player recruits a gang member, the player can give the camera to him by walking up to him and pulling the left trigger. After that, the game is viewed through the perspective of the gang member and pictures of CJ can be taken. The player can also aim the camera at a girlfriend and CJ will say something related to photo-shooting and she will wave. If you aim the camera at a gang member, CJ will say something like he says to his girlfriend, but the gang member will not respond or wave unless the player has recruited him.
In Grand Theft Auto IV, the player is equipped with a Whiz camera phone during the mission Photo Shoot. The camera is used in certain missions where a picture is required. Outside of missions, snapshots can be taken, but there is no way of saving them. Accessing the camera function of the phone when in a train or cable car allows for first-person view. In a player-controlled vehicle however, the car will stop immediately when the camera is selected, no matter what speed (this glitch was fixed in the PC version). In some tourist spot like Firefly Projects, some pedestrians are seen using the camera, however when they dropped the camera, you can pick it but unable to use, instead you can throw it like other objects. In Grand Theft Auto The Ballad of Gay Tony, in the first club management mission at Maisonette 9, where you have to save Clay Jackson from paparazzis, the paparazzis are using cameras as well but with another design, though they can't be used by the player, but they can be used to pick up and throw like other objects.
Prominent appearances in missions
GTA Vice City
GTA San Andreas
GTA Liberty City Stories
GTA Vice City Stories
- Photo Shoot
- First mission from Jeff
- ...I'll Take Her
GTA IV: The Lost and Damned
- Aside from capturing a screenshot of the game, the camera also stops nearby vehicles, and temporarily slows down speeches (as they were heard on the slow-motion cheats of the game)
- In Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas the player can immediately switch to third-person view whilst the screen flashes. This can be done by hitting both mouse buttons simultaneously (PC), allowing the gamer to take a brief photo of CJ.
- You can save photos on the camera without saving the actual game only in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
- If you look closely at the camera in GTA San Andreas, its lens slightly resembles an eye.
- In GTA San Andreas, if you are walking with a camera in your hand and you start tapping the aim button while walking, CJ will suddenly stop and will be stuck in the walking position. He will be floating in mid air with both his legs bent, as if he is walking, but he won't be moving. To start moving again, just move.
- In GTA San Andreas there is a glitch that if you walk backwards and fall over from a boat into water while aiming with the camera, you can swim while still in aim mode. You can even dive in the water (but it last only 2 seconds and you can't really move underwater), although you can't take photos while in the water, and releasing the aim button will permanently stop the glitch until starting it again. It is unknown if it works on any platform other than PC.
- During the final cutscene of The Green Sabre on GTA San Andreas, when C.R.A.S.H. drop CJ off in Whetstone, the camera Officer Pulaski gives to CJ is a different model to the one in the game. It is white with a detachable flash, and the lens is wider, yet shorter and is more detailed than the final model.
- In Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, if the player has the camera in hand, and enters the Hunter or Hydra and enters first-person view, the HUD will be that of the camera.
- In GTA San Andreas, if NPC use the camera and player attacks them, they will try to "shoot" the player with the camera.

Earth Day Network and Carbonfund.org Partner to Offer Carbon Offsets for Events
WASHINGTON, DC – Earth Day Network and Carbonfund.org have launched an international effort to encourage Earth Day 2007 organizers and anyone else putting together an event to make their gatherings carbon neutral. The new partnership is part of Earth Day Network's three-year Climate Change Solutions Campaign which is also the theme of its Earth Day 2007 efforts.
"Offsetting the carbon emissions created by our Earth Day events and other events year-round is an easy and affordable step," said Earth Day Network President Kathleen Rogers. "And there are thousands of Earth Day events, so this will have a huge positive impact on the environment the weekend of April 22nd, and then hopefully year-round."
Earth Day event organizers can read about the new program on Earth Day Network's website,http://www.earthday.net, and then simply calculate the anticipated carbon emissions from their event, and make a donation to offset their emissions. Other events which may be offset include weddings, family gatherings, vacations and conferences.
Carbonfund.org uses the carbon offset donations to fund carbon reduction projects, such as wind farms, methane generated electricity, solar power, and energy efficiency.
"With all the events we have analyzed and offset in the past, we know the per event emissions are fairly small, but the aggregate emissions from all the Earth Day Events around the world will be significant, and showing gathered decision makers how simple and effective action on climate change can be is a great opportunity." said Eric Carlson, Carbonfund.org's executive director. "Earth Day Network coordinates the most significant environmental event of the year, and we are privileged to be working with such a great organization.
About Earth Day Network
Earth Day Network, http://www.earthday.net, seeks to grow and diversify the environmental movement worldwide, and to mobilize it as the most effective vehicle for promoting a healthy, sustainable planet.

Late start on new bat regulations is driving players, schools, stores batty
While high school baseball practice literally is in full swing, bat racks at some sporting goods stores in the Roseville area remain empty, still waiting for their ship to come in, in a manner of speaking.
The California Interscholastic Federation announced in August that high school bats would need to carry the new Bat-Ball Coefficient of Restitution – aka BBCOR – stamp this season, a year ahead of the original plan. Problem is, some stores still can't get their hands on them.
Tim Hollman, store manager at Bases Loaded in Folsom, said last week there were 70 BBCOR bats in stock, from four manufacturers. Hollman said Bases Loaded received one shipment of bats. On Tuesday, he was still waiting for a second shipment.
Meanwhile, at Extra Innings in Rocklin, owner Bill Randall said last week he still had nothing.
"Half the stuff is the old composite that got banned," he said.
Roseville's Sports Authority store had several BBCOR bats – which have less pop than the current Baseball Exit Speed Ratio bats – last week and expected to have up to 12 models by the end of February, according to store manager Kyle Collins. Sports Authority is in partnership with the CIF to supply BBCOR bats.
The timing of the CIF's decision made it tough for manufacturers to supply enough bats to California high schools, according to bat company officials and store owners.
"Never a period more confusing in my 35 years," said Marty Archer, president of the Louisville Slugger division of Hillerich & Bradsby Co., Inc., now in its 127th year in the baseball business.
How it started
The NCAA adopted the BBCOR standards in May 2009 and planned to go to the new bats this year with the National Federation of State High School Associations to follow in 2012.
Then, pitcher Gunnar Sandberg of Marin Catholic High School in Kentfield was critically injured last March when he was hit in the head by a line drive (he began practice with his teammates last week, according to an Associated Press story). Assemblyman Jared Huffman (D-San Rafael) followed by introducing Assembly Bill 7, which would have put a two-year moratorium on aluminum bats.
As the bill was being reviewed last summer, the CIF decided to go to the BBCOR regulations a year early based on financial – schools being forced to purchase wood bats for the next two years, including physical education classes – and safety concerns, Executive Director Marie Ishida said last week.
"It's not cost effective to make schools go out and buy new bats. They break easier, too," Ishida said. "Let's do it now (in August) and err on the side of safety. So he dropped his bill."
California and Virginia are the only two states to adopt the BBCOR regulations in 2011.
So many players, so little time
Bat companies had the colleges covered, but having to produce more BBCOR bats for California's estimated 40,000 high school players created a problem, according to Mike May in West Palm Beach, Fla., director of communications for the Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association.
"It takes awhile to make all those bats," he said. "It takes awhile to design a bat, test a bat. They always fail first time through. It's been a big challenge technologically. It's not a matter of flicking your fingers and voila, here are your bats.
"Throw in the equation that California announces (six) months ago they're going BBCOR … and the industry is like, 'That's great, but the biggest priority is the colleges. We'll do the best we can. We don't mean to be rude, but it's a lot easier to make a T-shirt than a baseball bat.' It was a race against time to meet the college demand. As soon as they arrive in the country, they're being shipped to destinations. There are probably a lot of bats sitting on boats in the middle of the Pacific right now. We just have to wait."
There were customers last fall that unknowingly bought bats that would be illegal in 2011, then couldn't return them to stores because of broken-seal policies. As customers became aware of the new regulations, Randall began fielding more calls from people asking questions instead of buying. Christmas came and went with Santa Claus lacking bats to load into his sled.
Little League Baseball also put a moratorium on composite bats in its Major, Junior, Senior and Big League divisions, affecting Roseville West, Woodcreek and Lakeside locally. After an initial round of testing, Little League assembled a list of composite bats receiving waivers, according to a news release on its website dated Jan. 20.
"That came out of nowhere," said Randall, who now has bats manufacturers won't take back.
He also heard from a customer who bought a name-brand bat and was told by the company it would allow that bat to be traded in for a comparable bat.
"We're waiting around now," Randall said. "I can't afford to risk buying tens of thousands of dollars in bats. These bats are expensive. I had a feeling this was going to happen. It's hard to find a bat right now. It messes up the Little League end of things. (Manufacturers) didn't know what to produce."
BBCOR vs. BESR
In moving to the BBCOR bat, the NCAA wanted to tone down the game, "bring back the integrity of the game also," Ishida said. "The whole rationale was to make them more wood-like."
BBCOR bats are end-heavy and more difficult to swing, especially for younger and smaller high school players, Archer said.
Randall and Granite Bay High School coach Pat Esposito heard stories of dwindling home run totals in college fall programs using BBCOR bats.
"They say it's like a water-logged wood bat they're trying to hit," Oakmont High senior Kyle Jones said. "The ball just dies."
Dr. Lloyd V. Smith of the School of Mechanical and Materials Engineering at Washington State University acknowledged a BESR bat would hit a ball farther than a BBCOR bat but, "The difference is less than 5 percent," he said. "You're talking a few feet."
A small number of bats that meet the outgoing BESR and Accelerated Break-In (ABI) standards have been grandfathered into the 2011 season by the NFHS, to the disagreement of Louisville Slugger's Archer and the SGMA's May.
"I don't think any manufacturers were able to produce enough BBCOR bats to equip California adequately, and that's why they allowed the BESR bats," Archer said.
Some BESR-stamped composite bats became more powerful the more they were used, according to Randall.
"As it hits, it basically crushes that fiber and weakens it, and it becomes more flexible," he said. "As they were used, they were surpassing the certification. They couldn't control it."
Esposito noted that BBCOR bats increase safety but also diminish the game "a little bit."
"Now, I'm all for safety, but sooner or later, they're going to tell us infielders have to wear safety masks because they may get hit with the ball," he said. "Somewhere there, it has to stop."
Granite Bay and Woodcreek have purchased a few bats for each level of their programs this season, according to Esposito and Woodcreek coach Kelly Mayo.
"Something the kids can use so they don't have to go out and buy their own," Esposito said.
Mayo said he began talking to his players about the bat situation in November, and some of his players have purchased BBCOR bats.
Changes in the game
Roseville coach Hank DeMello said in an e-mail he agreed changes needed to be made, though they "probably could have been done gradually."
Esposito sees two sides of the BBCOR/wood bat debate. He believes Major League Baseball would approve of high school players using wood because draft picks wouldn't have to be taught how to swing wood after signing contracts. DeMello said the same regarding scouts. Esposito believes swinging wood bats makes hitters better, but the high school game wouldn't be as exciting with wood bats.
"You're not going to score a lot of runs. You just don't have strength in the hands and arms and body size where you're going to drive the ball as well," Esposito said. "But if everybody went to it, then the game would be the game – you know, toned down. That's what their whole thing is. I just wish they wouldn't have just jumped off the ledge with both feet and tested the water before they checked to see if that's what we should do in high school."
Said DeMello, "This should have happened earlier. The bat companies are to blame. They kept adding technology to these bats. There were kids hitting balls out that you look at your pitching coach thinking. 'What the heck did you call?' And he's thinking, 'How did he hit that?' There are kids getting fisted and hitting it 400 feet. It's made a mockery of the game.
"It might be nice to see a pitcher get rewarded for making a quality pitch instead of having it fall for a base hit."

33 U.S. Code § 1377 - Indian tribes
prev | next
(a) Policy
Nothing in this section shall be construed to affect the application of section 1251 (g) of this title, and all of the provisions of this section shall be carried out in accordance with the provisions of such section 1251 (g) of this title.

Delmore Schwartz was born December 8, 1913, in Brooklyn. The marriage of his parents Harry and Rose, both Roumanian immigrants, was doomed to fail. Sadly, this misfortune with relationships was also a theme in Schwartz's life. His alcoholism, frequent use of barbiturates and amphetamines, and battles with various mental diseases, proved adverse in his relationships with women. His first marriage to Gertrude Buckman lasted six years; his second, to the young novelist Elizabeth Pollett, ended after his ceaseless paranoid accusations of adultery led him to attack an art critic with whom he believed Elizabeth was having an affair.
Despite his turbulent and unsettling home life as a child, Schwartz was a gifted and intellectual young student. He enrolled early at Columbia University, and also studied at the University of Wisconsin, eventually receiving his bachelor's degree in 1935 in philosophy from New York University. In 1936 he won the Bowdoin Prize in the Humanities for his essay "Poetry as Imitation." In 1937 his short story "In Dreams Begin Responsibilities" (successfully written in one month during the summer of 1935 after he locked himself in his Greenwich Village apartment) was published in Partisan Review, a left-wing magazine of American politics and culture; the following year this short story would be published by New Directions with other poetry and prose in his first book-length work, also titled In Dreams Begin Responsibilities. It was praised by many, including T.S. Eliot, William Carlos Williams, Ezra Pound, Robert Lowell, and Vladimir Nabokov.
He never finished his advanced degree in philosophy at Harvard, but was hired as the Briggs-Copeland Lecturer, and later given an Assistant Professorship. Frustrated by what he believed was a sense of anti-Semitism within the school, in 1947 Schwartz ended his twelve-year association with Harvard and returned to New York City. His book of short stories The World is a Wedding was published the following year. Time compared Schwartz to Stendhal and Anton Chekhov. By this same time his work was widely anthologized. He was publishing critical essays on other important literary figures and cultural topics, and was the poetry editor at Partisan Review, and later also at New Republic.
His increasingly itinerant nature left him dependent on a series of teaching positions at Bennington College, Kenyon College, Princeton University, the writer's colony Yaddo, and at Syracuse University, in his last years. Among others, he inspired the student Lou Reed, who later dedicated "European Son" on the Velvet Underground's first album to Schwartz. In 1960 Schwartz became the youngest poet ever to win the Bollingen Prize. His friend Saul Bellow wrote a semi-fictional memoir about Schwartz called Humboldt's Gift, which won the Pulitzer Prize.
The last years of his life Schwartz was a solitary, disheveled figure in New York. He drank frequently at the White Horse Tavern, and spent his time sitting in parks and collecting bits of work, quotes, and translations in his journal. Finding himself penniless and virtually friendless, in the summer of 1966 Schwartz checked into the Times Squares hotel, perhaps to focus on his writing. Unfortunately by this time his body had been taxed by years of drug and alcohol abuse. He worked continuously until a heart attack on July 11 seized him in the lobby of the hotel.

|List of episodes
Simplified list of episodes
"The Algae's Always Greener" is a SpongeBob SquarePants episode from season three. In this episode, Mr. Krabs and Plankton switch lives.
- Sheldon J. Plankton/Mr. Plankton
- Eugene H. Krabs/Krabs
- SpongeBob SquarePants
- Squidward Tentacles
- Pearl
- Karen
- Nat Peterson
- Old Man Jenkins
- Shrimp
After failing to steal the Krabby Patty formula once again, Plankton decides that he is tired of eating "holographic meatloaf" and wants to switch lives with Mr. Krabs. Plankton does so using his machine, and wakes up in his Mr. Krabs' office, wearing his uniform, and sees a name plate reading "Mr. Plankton" and a photo of him with Pearl. Plankton realizes that he has successfully teleported to a universe where he was successful, and has an alternate SpongeBob give him two Krabby Patties for "bun inspection". While Plankton is in his office, drooling over the Krabby Patties and celebrating his new found power and wealth, SpongeBob suddenly appears for his weekly performance review.Plankton tells him that he's fine the way he is, but SpongeBob persists and all but demands that something be found wrong with him, Plankton relents and tells him he has been using too much sauce, which contrary to his insistence of being criticized SpongeBob gets shocked and starts to make weird shuddering noises while twitching. To calm him down, Plankton promotes SpongeBob to "co-cashier", much to the disdain of that universe's Squidward, who enters his office to complain and wants his view to be a little less yellow, and is then made fry cook while Plankton replies, "I hope you like gray!" Before Plankton can get back to his Krabby Patties, an alternate Pearl, now his daughter, comes into the restaurant, asking for an "advance" on her allowance.
An alternate Mr. Krabs, who now has the life of Plankton, and is completely naked, as Plankton normally does not wear clothes, appears, with a Krabby Patty in hand. SpongeBob tries to shoot Krabs using a cannon that shoots out clothes, and throws the Krabby Patty to Plankton after Mr. Krabs is shot with a bra, he is though still confused about what is going on.
As Mr. Krabs leaves, the people at the Krusty Krab give a "victory screech". Mr. Krabs tells Plankton that he will come back every day as he says repetitively, "And the next day, and the next day, and the next day-"Soon, when he leaves the Krusty Krab, he calls Plankton on a phone and repeats the lines to him over and over again, Plankton then screams and he wakes up in his reality. The episode ends with him saying "Holographic Meatloaf. My favorite!" and Plankton eating happily.

- The episode is featured on Sea Stories and 10 Happiest Moments DVDs.
- When Mr. Plankton's eye turns into a Krabby Patty, it is the same Krabby Patty from the Krusty Krab Training Video.
- This is one of the few episodes that is focused on Plankton.
- This is the sole episode where the mainstream SpongeBob doesn't appear. However, his alternate counterpart does.
- The Dutch title of this episode is "Hoe het is om meneer Krabs te zijn" meaning "How is it to be Mr. Krabs?".
- The part where SpongeBob starts whining just because Mr. Plankton said that he used too much sauce became popular on YouTube for its stereotypical Asian look. The "Oh my goodness! SQUIDWARD!" quote has become a meme as well.
- This isn't the only episode to show an alternate-universe. Alternate-Universe SpongeBob has appeared in mirrors in five other episodes (these are Something Smells, Squid's Day Off, Wet Painters, Chimps Ahoy and Ghost Host). An Alternate-Universe Squidward and Patrick have also appeared in episodes.
- Patrick does not appear in this episode.
- This episode's title card is similar to the other episodes The Thing and Hide and Then What Happens?
- This is another instance in which Squidward's Krabby Patty cooking skills are shown to be subpar; a previous instance was in Hooky. His cooked patties were said to taste like fried boots. In fact, one patty was a fried boot.
- This episode's plot is somewhat similar to the Spy Buddies' plot as Mr. Krabs and Plankton swap places for the day.
- This is the only episode that the primary universe SpongeBob does not appear.
- This episode marked the first time Plankton hid inside something on Old Man Jenkins' tray. He did this again in Krabs à la Mode, where he hid inside Old Man Jenkins' drink.
Cultural References
- When Plankton says "Reunited, and it's going to feel so good!", it's a reference to the Peaches And Herb song called "Reunited." It can also be a reference to "it feels so good to reunite", a quote from Creed's 2001 hit "My Sacrifice", which was released several months before this episode.
- When Mr. Plankton says: "What, did I say the secret word or something?" is a reference Pee-Wee's Playhouse.
- The title "The Algae's Always Greener" is a pun of the saying "The grass is always greener".
- When Plankton says: "Rolling stones gather no algae.", it is a parody of the saying "Rolling pebbles gather no moss.".
- When SpongeBob is shooting Krabs with the clothes cannon, he references a rule common in the restaurant business: "no shirt, no shoes, no service."

Living Will
Topic Overview
A living will is a type of advance directive that documents your wishes about end-of-life medical treatment, including life support, if you become unable to speak for yourself. In most cases, a living will and medical power of attorney, which names a health care agent, are completed at the same time.
All 50 states and the District of Columbia have laws about advance directives. But state laws vary in their requirements. Some states have a standard living will form to which you can add your own instructions.
Have your living will witnessed as your state requires, usually by two people who have nothing to gain or lose by doing so. Your state may require that your living will be notarized (witnessed by a notary public). A federal law called the Patient Self-Determination Act requires hospitals and nursing homes that receive Medicaid and Medicare funds to inform you that you have the right to fill out an advance directive. Many hospitals and nursing homes will give you forms that meet state requirements.
You do not need an attorney to complete a living will. But legal advice is helpful if your state's laws are unclear, your health history is complex, or there is conflict within your family.
To get copies of the forms for your state and instructions for completing the forms, contact the nonprofit organization Caring Connections at www.caringinfo.org or 1-800-658-8898. Give your doctor a copy of your living will to keep in your medical record. If you have more than one doctor, make sure that each doctor has a copy. Speak with your doctor and other health professionals to ensure that they understand the words you have used. Make sure that your family members and your health care agent also have copies. Some people may want to put a copy of their advance directive in an envelope on their refrigerator door.
Keep the following facts in mind when you are considering preparing a living will:
- You can change or revoke your living will at any time. Review your living will regularly. Many people find that their wishes about medical treatment change over time, even in a few months, as their health changes. You may change the forms to address your specific wishes. If you make significant changes to your living will, complete a new document.
- Your living will is only used if you can no longer make or communicate decisions for yourself. Normally, one or more doctors must certify that you lack capacity before your living will takes effect.
- If you become able to speak for yourself again, you can accept or refuse any treatment, no matter what you said in your living will.
- Some states may limit your right to refuse treatment in certain situations. You may need to specifically state in your advance directive that you do not want artificial hydration and nutrition, such as being fed through a tube.
Be specific when you complete your living will, but avoid being overly specific. Too much detail may limit your health care agent's ability to make decisions as your situation evolves, yet too little detail may not give your agent and family enough guidance in a specific situation. Be sure to talk with your agent about your beliefs and wishes.
- Although you cannot plan for every possible situation that may arise, some treatments are commonly used in end-of-life situations. These include cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), ventilators, and artificial nutrition (feeding tubes) and fluids.
- Some types of health problems tend to be more common at the end of life, such as irreversible brain damage or a form of dementia such as Alzheimer's disease.
- In your living will, include some general information about whether you would want to have certain treatments or to have your life prolonged in certain situations. Talk these situations over with your health care agent, your family, and your doctor.
- If you have a chronic illness, talk with your doctor about what is likely to happen, what kinds of treatments you may receive, and how you feel about those treatments. Talk to your agent about your wishes based on these discussions.

Four years ago, Tom Daschle was very interested in formally joining the Obama administration.
Today? The thought of Daschle taking a key role in the White House is being floated, but early Friday, he told me he is not a candidate for the chief of staff job.
"Denis McDonough, who used to work with me; Ron Klain, who also worked with me; and Tom Nides, a good friend, are the men under consideration," Daschle said in an email from Tokyo, where he is studying high-speed rail for possibly bringing such a system to the northeast in the USA.
"We should know soon," he said. Some journalists agree with his assessment.
Daschle, who served four terms as a South Dakota congressman (1979-1987) and three as a senator (1987-2005), was President Obama's initial choice to be secretary of Health and Human Services back in 2008-2009.
But revelations about tax problems and a preference for limos and a driver forced Daschle to drop out. The Aberdeen native with a reputation as a smart, low-key guy who used to drive himself across South Dakota and stop in every county during his tenure in Congress was seen by his critics as a privileged insider.
His life in politics and government seemed at an end, and he told me he no longer followed South Dakota politics closely. He did appear in the state a few times in 2012, speaking at the funerals of Bill Janklow and George McGovern.
But a political comeback seemed possible, at least for a short time. In the past 24 hours, The Hill posted a blog suggesting Daschle, 65, would be an ideal choice to serve as Obama's latest chief of staff.
Obama nominated his current chief of staff, Jack Lew, to serve as secretary of the treasury on Thursday, as a typical cabinet shakeup takes place at the end of a first term.
"Daschle has enormous credibility, respect and experience throughout the upper strata of American political and business leadership. He is trusted by leading Democrats and has long-term relations of trust with a long list of leading Republicans, which will be essential to achieving major goals in the current political climate in Washington," Brent Budowsky wrote.
The idea quickly swept across the web, but Daschle was not on board with the plan, according to Maria Recio of Planet Washington.
"Daschle is now a senior policy adviser at DLA Piper, a high-powered law firm and his wife Linda is a well-known lobbyist. Ethics rules would restrict her ability to lobby — an apparent deal-killer for him to take the job," Recio wrote.
Daschle seems happy, making a ton of money, living a life free of the stress he dealt with on a regular basis when he was the Democratic leader in the Senate. He has been mentioned as a possible chief of staff before, and didn't take it then.
He still lunches with and advises Obama on a regular basis, and since many of his former staffers have worked in this White House, he has influence and contacts. His former chief of staff, Pete Rouse, spent three months as Obama's chief of staff in 2010-2011, so Daschle could ask him how that worked.
But why would he want to serve as chief of staff? It's a high-pressure job, and Obama has already plowed through four of them in his first term.
Plus, Daschle once held dreams of the presidency. When he thought of working in the White House, he pictured himself seated in the Oval Office, not serving the person in it.
However, he is still very interested in how things work, or don't work, in Washington, as he told CNN last year. He shared an interview with his old colleague and sparring partner Trent Lott, the former Republican senator from Mississippi. Which offers a chance to share this piece I wrote five years ago about the two men for my old Montana newspaper.
I doubt Daschle will serve in the White House in any capacity, but he will likely remain an influential voice in the next four years.
When I asked for a final confirmation that he was not interested in the chief of staff's post, and it was safe to report that, his answer was succinct: "Yes," he wrote.

Jane Austen's Guide to Happily Ever After
Beliefnet blogger Gayle Trotter caught up with author Elizabeth Kantor on her new book highlighting lessons of love by the timeless Jane Austen.
Gayle Trotter: This is Gayle Trotter, and today I'm speaking with Elizabeth Kantor, author of The Jane Austen Guide to Happily Ever After. Thank you so much for speaking with me today, Elizabeth.
Elizabeth Kantor: Gayle, thank you so much for having me.
GT: What can Jane Austen teach us about love? Did she marry and live happily ever after?
EK: She didn't marry. I think you can make a case for happily ever after in her case, but she did, we have to admit, miss out on the thrilling high point of life that she gets just perfectly right there at the end of Pride and Prejudice with Elizabeth and Darcy. I think in terms of her understanding of happily ever after you have to say that the proof of the pudding is in the eating. If you're a woman who's ever been deeply, intensely in love and you read those novels, you see she knew exactly what she was talking about.
GT: How do Jane Austen's heroines differ on their general outlook on men compared with today's women and our culture's common portrayal of men.
EK: Jane Austen was very careful — and her heroines were like this too — were very careful not to be cynics about guys. Jane Austen was well aware of men's limitations and their foibles. She's funny about it in her novels, but if her heroines start to get that, like paint them all with a broad brush, all men are jerks — as Elizabeth Bennet says at some point, "What are men to rocks and mountains?" — that kind of man-bashing attitude, then in Elizabeth Bennet's case, a wise aunt will say, You know, you're sounding a little bit bitter there. Jane Austen really understands that it's part of female dignity to respect male dignity. If you want guys to respect you, you have to stay away from that attitude that all men are just jerks.
GT: And why is male attention the ultimate intoxicant and how do Jane Austen's women react to male attention?
EK: Yes, Jane Austen is just so smart about relationship dynamics and everything. You know how we have this vague cultural memory that back in Victorian times women had to dress modestly so as not to entice men with their physical allurements. In Jane Austen's day, men were not supposed to pay women attention in a careless, immodest way. They weren't supposed to be seductive with their attention and their approach to women. Because just like a guy gets his head turned if he sees a girl in a bikini, then often women get our heads turned if a guy pays a lot of attention to us. There's a chapter in the Jane Austen Guide called "The Real Original Rules: Not for Manipulating Men, but for Helping Women Keep their Freedom" in respect to men. A lot of women, I think, can learn from Jane Austen, essentially relationship rules; rules for keeping enough distance between you and the guy that you can get to know him without losing your perspective on him.

Those delicate clusters you cuddle up in every night don't require constant washing. In fact, it's not good for them. Our advice? Use a duvet cover with your comforter and wash that weekly instead.
Then, about once a year, if you simply can't make it to the dry cleaner, toss your down in a large-capacity washer. (If you don't have one at home, head to your nearest laundromat.) For the rest? Follow these simple steps.
- Place your down comforter in a large-capacity machine.
- Set the cycle to delicate.
- Add a small cupful of mild detergent – about half the recommended amount.
- Rinse the load twice to ensure all the soap is out.
- Place your just-washed comforter in a large-capacity dryer.
- Toss a couple of tennis balls (clean, right-out-of-the-package ones) into the dryer. This will help separate the feathers.
- Dry on low with cold-to-warm heat. Every so often, remove the comforter and shake it out. Even if it takes two or three hours, be patient. It is important to dry the feathers and clusters thoroughly to prevent mold.
Now that you're fluent in the practice of down care, visit our Cuddledown Boutique on Monday, February 10, at 3PM ET.

Dated March 27, 2013
[GRAPHIC OMITTED] 18mo EEM BREN OVERVIEW May be appropriate for investors anticipating moderate appreciation in the Index Fund during the term of the note and those seeking to enhance returns through leverage within the specified range of performance in exchange for a maximum return. Downside out performance relative to the Index Fund is achieved by virtue of the Buffer. The payment at maturity references the Index directly and is not subject to any tracking error at maturity. Summary of Terms Issuer: JPMorgan Chase and Co. Par: $1,000 Index: iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund Upside Leverage Factor: 1.5 Maximum Total Return: 14%-18%* Buffer Amount: 10.00% Pricing Date: April 25, 2013 Observation Date: October 28, 2014 Maturity Date: October 31, 2014 CUSIP: 48126DJ34 Return Profile If the ending Index Fund level is greater than its initial level, you will receive a cash payment that provides you with a return per $1,000 principal amount note equal to the Index Fund return multiplied by the Upside Leverage Factor, subject to the Maximum Total Return on the notes. You will not be exposed to any decline in the Index Fund at maturity up to the Buffer Amount. If the Index Fund declines from its initial level by greater than the Buffer Amount, you will lose 1% of the principal amount of your notes for every 1% that the Index has declined beyond the buffer. * To be determined on the Pricing Date, but not less than 14% ** Reflects a Maximum Total Return of 14% for illustrative purposes and assumes a $1,000 investment Hypothetical Returns** Buffered Return Enhanced Notes Linked to the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund Total Return at Maturity [GRAPHIC OMITTED] Index Fund Note Return Payment at Return Maturity ---------- ----------- ---------- 70.00% 14.00% $1140.00 ---------- ----------- ---------- 50.00% 14.00% $1140.00 ---------- ----------- ---------- 40.00% 14.00% $1140.00 ---------- ----------- ---------- 15.00% 14.00% $1140.00 ---------- ----------- ---------- 12.00% 14.00% $1140.00 ---------- ----------- ---------- 9.33% 14.00% $1140.00 ---------- ----------- ---------- 5.00% 7.50% $1075.00 ---------- ----------- ---------- 0.00% 0.00% $1000.00 ---------- ----------- ---------- -10.00% 0.00% $1000.00 ---------- ----------- ---------- -15.00% -5.00% $950.00 ---------- ----------- ---------- -30.00% -20.00% $800.00 ---------- ----------- ---------- -40.00% -30.00% $700.00 ---------- ----------- ---------- -100.00% -90.00% $100.00 ---------- ----------- ---------- ** The hypothetical returns set forth above are illustrative and may not be the actual returns on the notes.

18mo EEM BREN North America Structured Investments Selected Benefits [] Diversified exposure to emerging equity markets through the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund. [] Provides enhanced or leveraged equity returns, subject to the Maximum Total Return at maturity. [] Payment at maturity is protected against a decline in the Index Fund up to the Buffer Amount. [] Minimum denomination of $1,000 and integral multiples in excess thereof. [] Potential for Long Term Capital Gains tax treatment if held longer than one year. Selected Risks [] Your investment in the notes may result in a loss. [] Payment on the notes at maturity is subject to our credit risk. Therefore the value of the notes prior to maturity will be subject to changes in the market's view of our creditworthiness. [] Your maximum gain on the notes is limited to the Maximum Total Return. [] If the Index Fund declines from its initial level by more than 10%, you could lose up to $900.00 for each $1,000 note. [] No Interest payments, dividend payments or voting rights. [] The tax consequences of the notes may be uncertain. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the notes. [] Certain built-in costs are likely to adversely affect the value of the Notes prior to maturity. The original issue price of the notes includes the agent's commission and the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the notes. As a result, the price, if any, at which JPMS will be willing to purchase notes from you in secondary market transactions, if at all, will likely be lower than the original issue price and any sale prior to the maturity date could result in a substantial loss to you. [] Lack of liquidity: JPMorgan Securities, LLC, acting as agent for the Issuer (and who we refer to as JPMS), intends to offer to purchase the notes in the secondary market but is not required to do so. The price, if any, at which JPMS will be willing to purchase notes from you in the secondary market, if at all, may result in a significant loss of your principal. [] Many economic and market factors, such as Index volatility, time to maturity, interest rates and creditworthiness of the Issuer, will impact the value of the notes prior to maturity. [] Potential conflicts: we and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of notes, including acting as calculation agent and hedging our obligations under the notes. It is possible that such hedging or other trading activities of JPMorgan or its affiliates could result in substantial returns for JPMorgan and its affiliates while the value of the notes decline. [] The risks identified above are not exhaustive.

For many Pixar fans, the original Cars was the least interesting addition to the studio's impeccable feature film canon on its initial release. At over two hours, its length may be a factor in viewers' disdain, but I'd also guess that prejudices against NASCAR and Larry the Cable Guy play a part. Circle racing's not for everyone (though neither is French cuisine cooked up by rats – the overwhelming praise for Ratatouille still perplexes me).
No circle racing in Cars' sequel – it's been ditched for the fictional World Grand Prix road race, moving the action to some of the world's great cities and their frantic pace, and away from Radiator Springs and most of its inhabitants (and the small-town ideals of the original film's storyline). The main Cars characters found here – race car sensation Lightning McQueen and his trusty, rusty sidekick Mater – get tangled up in an international espionage plot worthy of the James Bond franchise (Mater's mistaken for a spy, which causes trouble on and off the track between him and Lightning, until… well, like Bond films, do the plot details really matter?).
Ultimately, Cars 2's returning characters suffer the same fate as the Beatles in Help! – they end up as extras in their own movie. The similarities between the films is striking – the goofy protagonist (Ringo, Mater) works and plays with friends in exotic locales (the Beatles' proto-video performances, Lightning and Mater's racing set-pieces) while unwittingly being pursued by a variety of good and bad guys led by award-winning actors (Leo McKern, Michael Caine). The results are similar as well – anyone not having seen the previous film (A Hard Day's Night, Cars) may have no emotional attachment to the characters on-screen.
Cars 2 isn't really a bad film – animation is top-notch as always, and if you're really into spy flicks loaded with action, you may enjoy it without ever having watched the original. Still, since strong emotional attachment to characters in Pixar films is a primary source of those films' greatness, Cars 2's inability to sustain that attachment makes it the least of the studio's feature film efforts to date.

Speed to burn
Tyren Wolfe said he felt pretty good heading into Saturday's prestigious Oregon Relays at Hayward Field on the University of Oregon...
CENTRAL POINT — Smothering second-half defense by the Crater boys basketball team allowed it to go out as a winner on senior night at Crater High School.
Seniors Cody Dismukes and RJ Morgan put together big performances to guide the Comets past Grants Pass for a 60-43 victory on Thursday.
"Our defense was rock-solid in the second half," said Crater coach John Parent. "It was nice to see the seniors go out victorious. It was really what we wanted to see tonight."
The Comets (13-8, 5-5 Southern Oregon Hybrid), who are in third place in the SOH standings, received 19 points and seven rebounds from Dismukes.
Morgan generated 12 points, seven rebounds, six assists and four steals and junior Connor Lane gave the Comets 14 points.
The defense of Tommy Stewart and Anthony Martin limited Dylan Stremple, one of the conference's leading scorers. Stremple finished with 10 points but was held to just two in the second half where, as a team, the Comets yielded just 18 points.
Senior guard Evan Erskine added six assists for the Comets.
For the Cavemen (6-13, 2-8 SOH), Micah Johnson led the way with 13 points.
GRANTS PASS (43) — Johnson 13, Brennan 4, Meadows 8, Weiss 0, Luther 5, McKinley 1, Strempel 10, Busald 0, Jensen 0, Musser 0. Totals: 18 4-8 43.
CRATER (60) — Bennett 6, Stewart 6, Erskine 1, Martin 0, Marineau 2, Dismukes 19, Jaasko 0, Lane 14, Reiter 0, Asher 0, Orozco 0, Morgan 12. Totals: 24 9-16 60.
Grants Pass 8 17 12 6 — 43
Crater 14 17 12 17 — 60
3-point goals — Grants Pass 3 (Strempel 2, Luther 1), Crater 3 (Morgan 2, Dismukes 1). Fouled out — Luther. Technical foul — Grants Pass coach.
JV result — Crater won.

Sounds like what you need is Sketchup.
Hi all,
Not strictly a mapping question, but as this is the only art site I'm a member of...
I'd like to try my hand at drawing/painting interior and exterior perspective pictures of some of the buildings I've created floor plans for, but I'm crap at artwork - can't draw a straight line with a ruler.
What I could do with is some software that will help me to get perspectives right - something that traces in perspective lines, allows me to measure lengths, widths, heights, place my Eye Position, etc. Something that will allow me to place a pair of columns 20 feet high, 40 feet in front of me and ten feet to the left and 8 feet to the right of me.
Or draw a round tower, 30ft dia and 80 ft tall, 60 yards away up a 10 degree incline 15 feet above ground level...
But... I probably still won't be any good at it and I don't want to spend silly money on something I may have to throw out. Free would be good.
(Not much point installing a full church organ in my house if all I can play is Chopsticks...)
Can anyone recommend something that might help me get started? I have Gimp and Inkscape, but I don't see how I can plug numbers into those.

Sounds like what you need is Sketchup.

Its not free but ProFantasy has the Perspectives CC3 Add-On. I haven't used it myself (I don't do perspective maps)
I agree with Midgard... Sketchup sounds like just what you need, its by google and free (at leasts the basic version is)

Three thumbs up for Sketchup already. I use it myself.
Thanks guys,
Looks like I'll be installing Sketchup shortly.
I bought Profantasy some years back, not sure if Perspectives was in the bundle, but I could never figure out how it worked. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

CC2 Perspectives does have the capability to produce some excellent artwork, and is much easier to use than creating/importing 3D models to produce a Sketchup scene.

Nice map, and welcome to the Guild!
The most common way to spice up deserts would be sand dunes, though it depends on the kind of desert of course. But it looks like you have sand deserts there, and dunes are really easy to paint by hand. Here's a small practice piece I made recently, it's got a little desert along the right edge:
These dunes I made by just painting some wavy strokes of brown watercolor (burnt umber, if I recall correctly), and blending one side into the lighter brown.
Thanks Lingon!
Looks awesome, going to have to give it a shot.
