4 Stocks Driving The Drugs Industry Higher
Dow Jones Industrial Average ( ^DJI) trading down 14 points (-0.1%) at 15,098 as of Friday, Aug. 16, 2013, 12:55 PM ET. The NYSE advances/declines ratio sits at 1,393 issues advancing vs. 1,555 declining with 92 unchanged. The Drugs industry currently is unchanged today versus the S&P 500, which is down 0.1%. A company within the industry that increased today was Biogen Idec ( BIIB), up 0.5%. A company within the industry that fell today was Eli Lilly and Company ( LLY), up 0.7%. TheStreet would like to highlight 4 stocks pushing the industry higher today: 4. Shire ( SHPG) is one of the companies pushing the Drugs industry higher today. As of noon trading, Shire is up $1.01 (0.9%) to $111.70 on average volume. Thus far, 226,342 shares of Shire exchanged hands as compared to its average daily volume of 377,200 shares. The stock has ranged in price between $111.20-$111.84 after having opened the day at $111.65 as compared to the previous trading day's close of $110.69. Shire plc, a specialty biopharmaceutical company, engages in the research and development, manufacture, sale, and distribution of pharmaceutical products. It operates in three segments: Specialty Pharmaceuticals (SP), Human Genetic Therapies (HGT), and Regenerative Medicine (RM). Shire has a market cap of $20.9 billion and is part of the health care sector. Shares are up 20.7% year to date as of the close of trading on Thursday. Currently there are 9 analysts that rate Shire a buy, no analysts rate it a sell, and 3 rate it a hold. TheStreet Ratings rates Shire as a buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, increase in stock price during the past year, growth in earnings per share and expanding profit margins. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company shows weak operating cash flow.

I wondered which Unit testing framework would be a good one to get really familiar with? I know this might be a question of opinion, but I thought I'd ask anyways. I know that I will need to do it someday, so I might as well learn to use it. I know that there is quite a few out there, but which one is effective for C# development?
From this question I can see that Unit testing is necessary, but personally I haven't used it. So that's why I ask this question.

CGOCs rally volunteers to support the troops

CGOC Troop Care Drive co-chair
1/27/2011 -
HANSCOM AIR FORCE BASE, Mass.
-- From writing labels to packing boxes, 85 volunteers from Hanscom and the New England USO participated in the quarterly Company Grade Officers Council Troop Care Drive on Jan. 20. In all, 581 boxes - more than 6,000 pounds of goods - were shipped from the Bedford Post Office after the drive.
"We ship donated goods to help boost morale for our troops during deployments," said 1st Lt. Christopher Gamble, chair of the CGOC Troop Care Drive.
The drive, which takes place during the first month of every quarter , recruits volunteers from Hanscom and the surrounding community in support of deployed Airmen, Soldiers, Sailors and Marines from the Boston area.
Volunteers came from the New England USO, 66th Security Forces Squadron, Air Force Research Laboratory, the 46th Test Squadron Detachment 1 and several other base offices.
Col. Jeffrey MacEachron, the CGOC sponsor and Hanscom's inspector general, was instrumental in making sure the troop care drive was successful and appreciated the efforts of the volunteers.
"Great job by our CGOs and supporting volunteers. What an incredible effort!" said Colonel MacEachron, in an e-mail to the troop care drive committee. "Thank you for your outstanding efforts."
While the CGOC drive focuses primarily on Hanscom's deployed troops, it also reaches out to other service members when goods are available. The majority of the care packages from the latest drive will be going to chaplains and Marine units.
Eight Marine company first sergeants based out of Camp Pendleton, Calif., are among the deployed troops who were sent care packages last week. Names and addresses were gathered from the USO, a Marine exchange officer in the C2ISR Directorate and from a group of New Hampshire volunteers, known as the Soldiers Helpers, who also run periodic care drives.
"These men (and women) are deployed to some of the furthest reaches of Afghanistan and not close to any exchange services, so any assistance is very appreciated," Marine Corps Maj. Tony Barrett said.
More than 300 man-hours went into the planning and execution of the drive, and the committee gathered approximately 4,000 pounds of goods in addition to the supply of items they already had in storage. Monetary donations from local individuals and organizations were also collected in the months leading up to the drive.
Items shipped included toiletries, sports equipment, stationery, snacks, candy, chewing gum, toys, powdered drink mix, storage bags, magazines and much more.
According to Lieutenant Gamble, this drive went phenomenally well thanks to the outpouring of generosity from both donors and volunteers.
"It's about making an effort and making a difference in deployed troops' lives, not only from Hanscom, but nationwide," Lieutenant Gamble said. "It's showing you're thankful for their sacrifice. We help as many people and as much as we can. When we receive requests from these troops, we assist when supplies are available."
The next CGOC Troop Care Drive will take place in late April 2011. For further information or to volunteer at the next drive, contact Lieutenant Gamble at 781-266-1015.

in response to TrackinTedThe current minis are pretty fast. You should be able to use a lot of tracks before it is overloaded. As long as you are sure that you won't need to much ram or expandability, it should be fine. The minis are faster than the dual 1.25 G4 that I used in my pro studio up until last year.
TrackinTed Nov 29, 2009 4:23 PM
in response to Data Stream StudioWith Sonar the only way to get past 4gb is to use 64bit Windows and that is a compatibility nightmare. Most people use 4gb of RAM, and feel it is enough as long as you have processor horse power. Do you have much lag problems with OSX and Logic Pro? I use M-Audio Fast Track Pro sound card.
SeeBee Dec 8, 2009 12:48 PM
in response to TrackinTedI used the first Intel mini with Logic a few years back and it rocked no issues.
Frank Banks Dec 18, 2009 11:06 PM
in response to TrackinTedI am actually using Logic Studio 8 (Pro 8) on a Macbook 2.16gh, 3GB ram, but I am Booting (and have OS 10.5.8, Logic. and several other Apps) from an External Maxtor Firewire 400 HD. I don't even use the internal HD and have no OS on it. This works great with no ussues and works a lot better than booting from the Internal HD. This would actually be the same with the Mac Mini, and maybe even faster. U suggest you try putting the OS and Logic on an External Firewire HD and boot from this HD. You may need to the SYSTEM PRFERENCES and make the External HD the actual boot drive. I promiss you will be amazed and this method has worked well. I even did this on a single processor Imac G5. but the core 3 duo is faster.
Frank Banks Dec 25, 2009 8:41 PM
in response to TrackinTedI am really excited about the fact that O am currentle running a Macbook Core 2 Duo 2.16 GB Logic Studio 8.02 and haveing great resules. I think part of the reason in because I am actually booting from an Ext F/W 400 HD and running everything on this external HD. The new Mac Midi is faster and can have twice as much ram (4 GB). The Mac Mini should be the same as the Macbook I have(except the increased ram). This drive is much faster than the internal drive in the Macbeek and also the Mac Mini. I was even able to run this same Ext drive on an Imac G5 single processor. I am using OS 10.5.8 and also used the 10.5.8 when on the Imac.
Don't used a USB Drive necause it probable won't work near as well.

How To Use an Egg Mold

I want an egg mold now :< . love this tutorial and the layout! wonderful job .
I lost my bento carrying bag when I moved/divorced T___T I will have to get another one.... These are neat tutorials though!! I have tried many times eating sushi and nori but I cannot get past the strong fishy taste and the texture of raw fish I would love to make onigiri without needing nori....do you have any suggestions?
Aww you can make one. I only bought one of the bags that I own and that's because it came with it.
I don't know of a substitute for nori. Because it is such a unique ingredient
I don't know of a substitute for nori. Because it is such a unique ingredient
Ok thanks!! I will have to search the net to see if I can find some ideas... I love bento but I wish I loved sushi/nori just as much T___T
I guess I can still bento w/o that stuff tho.... I will just have to get creative
I guess I can still bento w/o that stuff tho.... I will just have to get creative
Yes you can. You don't have to use anything that you dislike. You will just have to search (google?) nori substitutes an the like. It's all just a bunch of research really and trial and error
lol yes I will have to google it XD I'm sure I will find some ideas around... I just need a new bento set... Might start making them for my bf's kids since the one will be in 1st grade and the other in preschool... they might enjoy that.
Oh wow that would be really nice of you. Children love bento!
^__^ Thanks. They are picky eaters so I will have to be creative with things they like to ensure they will eat!! I hope they will enjoy them
were do u get the egg mold
that is insane!!! I didn't know you could do that with an egg
Haha yes, and after you mold them, you can dye them too! Perfect for easter!
is the ball with the kanji on it a dumpling?
where do u get egg molds at!?
You can find them online.
I bought the exact same ones the other day~
Hopefully I'll get to try them out soon
Hopefully I'll get to try them out soon
You should, they're a lot of fun! I want the fish one because it's just so cute!
Aw, I didn't know you could even mold a hard boiled egg! What a great idea. Leave it to the Japanese to create such crazy awesome things. Haha! I'll definitely have to find a mold now.
SO CUTE!!! I wish I was as talented as you. T_T
Are you kidding you can do digital art much better than me!
Yeah but I can't cook to save my life! I can make a killer Easy Mac, but usually people smile and spit politely into their napkins when I try to make food. Did I ever tell you about how I burned water??
Haha >w< aww.
My dad can do that. Please go ahead~
My dad can do that. Please go ahead~
I put water on to make ramen, and proceeded to go play WoW and forgot all about it. A half-hour or so later the fire alarm started going off, and I remembered that I had put the pan on the stove and left it. The pan was completely black on the outside, and completely white on the inside. >_<
Cool! How much did your mold cost you?
I didn't buy mine, they were given to me. My friend had a friend that didn't want them so she gave them to her. My friend didn't really need them and knew I made bento so she kindly gave them to me. You can find them for a reasonable price online though. I would probably get them off of ebay myself.
OMG!! I love the idea!!
And where to get an egg mold? Never heard of it before.....
aww, I love the banner - super cute. Great tutorial Demi! Maybe one day I'll get to try this out
Awesome, but is there any way to do that with egg whites, cause I don't like the yoke.
Not that I know of. I mean the eggs are cooked when they go into the mold, so I don't think it's possible.
Hmmm...is it possible to cook the egg whites in the water like you would do with a poached egg and then add it to the mold?
I don't think it would because the egg white would spread out. For this the egg is in it's shape and then is flexible to be molded. It isn't being squished or held together, it's just being lightly compressed, you could always cut it in half and take the center out though.

Tooth Fillings with BPA Linked to Behavior Issues in Children
Posted By Mark Boyer On July 22, 2012 @ 3:10 pm In eco kids,Inhabitots | No Comments
[1]Preschool boy on dental prevention examination [2] via Shutterstock [1]
Yet another health problem has been linked to the use of Bisphenol A [3] (BPA) — this time, it's cavity fillings. A new study from the New England Research Institutes in Watertown finds that kids who have fillings made using BPA are more likely to develop behavior issues. Dental fillings [4] made with BPA are gaining in popularity because they are teeth-colored, as opposed to silver-colored. This of course isn't the first health issue BPA has been linked to; the common chemical has also been linked to autism [5], allergies, obesity [6], hormone imbalances, and cancer.

Introduction to Functional Analysis
Clarendon Press, 31.07.1997 - 448 Seiten
The book is written for students of mathematics and physics who have a basic knowledge of analysis and linear algebra. It can be used as a textbook for courses and/or seminars in functional analysis. Starting from metric spaces it proceeds quickly to the central results of the field, including the theorem of HahnBanach. The spaces (p Lp (X,(), C(X)' and Sobolov spaces are introduced. A chapter on spectral theory contains the Riesz theory of compact operators, basic facts on Banach and C*-algebras and the spectral representation for bounded normal and unbounded self-adjoint operators in Hilbert spaces. An introduction to locally convex spaces and their duality theory provides the basis for a comprehensive treatment of Fr--eacute--;chet spaces and their duals. In particular recent results on sequences spaces, linear topological invariants and short exact sequences of Fr--eacute--;chet spaces and the splitting of such sequences are presented. These results are not contained in any other book in this field.

From: Nicholas Mitch
Racism, homophobia and other types of discrimination have no place in any community, but especially one as diverse, and supposedly welcoming, as ours. As our county's primary news source, The Republic has a great deal of responsibility. Certainly, one of those is to provide a means of expression for community members, yet this is tempered by a responsibility to promote inclusiveness and respect for all.
William A. Pumphrey Jr.'s letter to the editor titled "Homosexuals should have their own facilities," published Feb. 15, was overtly homophobic and offended countless members of our community, straight and LGBTQ.
It is my sincere hope that The Republic would not publish a letter that promoted blatant discrimination based on race as this one did on sexual orientation, so The Republic, as a community leader, should be ashamed of itself for perpetuating such an antiquated double standard. It's time for this newspaper to hold itself to a higher standard.

Evangelical leaders split over gay marriage as Supreme Court decision nears
What Are We Willing to Do?
When we discuss the gospel of Jesus Christ, we realize that it is a revolutionary message asking us to love our enemies, to do good to those who curse us, and even harder, to turn the other cheek. The gospel is going beyond that. It is asking us to receive, stand, advocate for the poor, incarcerated, and those living in the margins who have been pushed out by the institutions of our society. Jesus took many risks at times during his ministry, and when he started turning over tables and exposing the priests' racket of selling sacrifices, it did not work out so well for him.
I'm not asking people to go and get themselves killed, but just ask yourself, "How much of the gospel am I willing to perform?"
Caitlyn Jenner and Jesus Christ: WWJD?
Washing Clean: Germany, Ireland, and Our America
It was a devastating weekend for black people in America.
On Friday, a white police officer pulled his gun at a pool party and assaulted a 15-year old black girl who cried for her mom in McKinney, Texas. On Saturday, a young black man committed suicide in his parents' home in the Bronx after being held without trial at Rikers Island for three years (nearly two in solitary confinement), accused of stealing a backpack — a charge that prosecutors ultimately dropped. On Sunday evening, hotel security officers profiled four young black organizers from Baltimore in the lobby of the Congress Plaza Hotel at the conclusion of The Justice Conference.
Silence Is Violence
The fight for the preservation of black and brown lives, that took unexpectedly deep roots in Ferguson and has now spread across nations, was a fight many of our students quickly came to lead, and folks like me have followed.
But many of these young people are not Christian, and frankly, the perception that local congregations lackadaisically approached this movement before it became a national headline — and brought a healthy, condescending dose of respectability politics and patriarchy along with their eventual involvement — is not making most of the millennial set excited about the prospects of salvation.
But local faith leaders like Rev. Traci Blackmon and Rev. Starsky Wilson, and others raised in faith like my friend Rich McClure and me, have clung to the radical example of Christ that guides our collective and individual action.
Traveling with South African 'Ex-Cons' to D.C.
I was privileged to co-host with former colleagues the visit of former South African President Kgalema Motlanthe, an ex-convict from the apartheid era. He served 10 years in prison for the "treasonous" act of standing against the Afrikaans Nationalist regime, along with Nelson Mandela and 1000s of others who spent many years on Robben Island or in Pretoria Central Prison. Many died in the process. President Motlanthe was accompanied by Denis Goldberg, who was convicted along with Mandela and served 22 years. Nicholas Wolpe, the facilitator of the trip, is a cousin of the late Congressman Howard Wolpe. Nic's father would have been one of the Rivonia accused at the trial in 1963-4 but for having made a daring famous escape with several other comrades.
Why Jesus Would Say 'Black Lives Matter'
As Christians we should recognize the language of black lives matter. After all, Jesus did not say "blessed is everyone," but "blessed are the poor" (Luke 6:20). He did not say "as you do it unto everyone, you do it unto me," but "as you do it unto the least" (Matthew 25:40). Jesus did not say "love everyone," but "love your enemies" (Matthew 5:44).
Continually Jesus drew our attention not to loving people "in general" but to specifically caring for those we would tend to discount or condemn. Black lives matter is exactly the kind of thing Jesus would say.
Rainbows Over Dublin and the Arc of Bono's Activism
When Ireland became the first country to legalize same-gender marriage by popular mandate, double rainbows appeared over Dublin, and an Irish rock band transformed their Arizona concert into a gay-rights celebration. Almost 30 years ago, Bono endured threats from angry Arizonans for his support of the U.S. national holiday for the late Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. But on Saturday, Bono invoked King as peacemaker as U2 celebrated the victory of love, turning the song "Pride (In The Name of Love)" into an anthem for gay pride.
Bono shared, "This is a moment to thank the people who bring us peace. It's a moment for us to thank the people who brought peace to our country. We have peace in Ireland today! And in fact on this very day we have true equality in Ireland. Because millions turned up to vote yesterday to say, 'love is the highest law in the land! Love! The biggest turnout in the history of the state, to say, 'love is the highest law in the land!' Because if God loves us, whoever we love, wherever we come from … then why can't the state?'"

The New Alternative Press on Campus - Issues That Inflame
Knull, Morgan N., The World and I
A peek at the top stories of some of the conservative campus newspapers across the country shows a potpourri of peppery issues on the editorial plate.
Dartmouth Review: The lead article is a review of a controversial book, Darkness in El Dorado: How Scientists and Journalists Devastated the Amazon, an account of how "self-serving anthropologists and obsessed scientists placed one of the Amazon basin's oldest tribes [the Yanomami] on the cusp of extinction."
Broadside Magazine: This North Carolina State publication carries an article defending the Boy Scouts of America, lauding the organization for teaching generations of boys about theocentrism and morality.
Cornell Review: One story responds to a report by the Gender Study Committee of the university's law school, acknowledging that the report deals with legitimate issues of sexual harassment but saying that the gender inequalities cited by the report can be largely explained not by discrimination but by sex differences.
Georgetown Academy: The newspaper takes aim at Georgetown University's new "speech code," seeing "censorship with a smile" in a recent revision of the Student Code of Conduct to outlaw speech that offends people on issues involving race, ethnicity, religion, feminism, and homosexuality. …

|Colts | Owner wants Andrew Luck signed soon
Sun, 01 May 2016 05:48:01 -0700
Indianapolis Colts QB Andrew Luck is having serious contract negotiations with the organization, and owner Jim Irsay said he would like Luck signed by the start of training camp in July.
Fantasy Tip: View Luck as a top-tier quarterback with the upside to be the No. 1 fantasy QB in 2016. Entering his fifth year in the league, Luck's fantasy floor is also attractive for those who target a set-and-forget quarterback early in drafts. However, he recently said he still isn't 100% healthy after dealing with shoulder and kidney injuries in 2015. Check back for updates on his status leading into the season.

|Colts | Andrew Luck not at full health
Mon, 18 Apr 2016 14:41:31 -0700
Indianapolis Colts QB Andrew Luck (shoulder, kidney) said he's not as healthy as he can be and that he still has work to do, although he did say he feels really good. Luck did he say he participated in everything during the first day of the offseason program Monday, April 18. Luck did not disclose a timeline for his rehabilitation or what he must do in order to complete a full recovery by Week 1.
Fantasy Tip: Luck is arguably the best quarterback in the NFL when he's healthy, but staying healthy has been tough for him lately. He had one of the worst offensive lines in the NFL last season, and he tends to have a nitty, gritty playstyle, too. That being said, he's still worth taking as a top QB1.

Thu, 24 Mar 2016 09:51:43 -0700
Indianapolis Colts QB Andrew Luck needs to learn how to slide better in order to avoid big hits in games, according to owner Jim Irsay. Minor league baseball manager Dean Treanor has offered his services to teach Luck the proper way to slide. Luck suffered a lacerated kidney on a hit he took last season and missed extended time.
Fantasy Tip: Luck missed nine games last year because of his injury and was a huge disappointment to his fantasy owners. It remains to be seen what kind of damage Luck can do in Rob Chudzinski's offense, but he should remain in the top tier of starting quarterbacks.

|Colts | Matt Hasselbeck not in Colts' plans
Sun, 28 Feb 2016 11:45:51 -0800
Indianapolis Colts QB Matt Hasselbeck was told by the Colts that he is not in their plans for next season. QB Josh Freeman is expected to back up QB Andrew Luck.
Fantasy Tip: It shouldn't be a surprise that Indianapolis wants to move on from a 40-year-old backup quarterback, especially after the beating Hasselbeck took last season. Luck is still arguably the best fantasy quarterback available despite missing most of last year with injuries.

|Colts | Andrew Luck's new deal to be 'shocking'
Wed, 10 Feb 2016 10:39:52 -0800
Indianapolis Colts QB Andrew Luck is in the final year of his rookie contract, but team owner Jim Irsay expects extension talks to begin in the coming months. "Andrew is going to be here. I don't know when that might be, but it's just a matter of time before we talk about this new contract and agreed to. It's going to be a big number. It's going to be a shocking number, nine figures and probably a $20 (million) starting point per year, but again we will find the right number to get to," Irsay told WISH-TV last week.
Fantasy Tip: Luck missed the final seven games of last season due to a lacerated kidney, but he has since recovered. The Colts know what they have in Luck, so their top priorities this offseason figure to be upgrading the offensive line and getting a deal done to keep their young quarterback in Indianapolis long-term. If the Colts can protect him better, he's an obvious bounce-back candidate with the ability to again be the top fantasy option at his position.

|Colts | New backup quarterback in 2016?
Wed, 03 Feb 2016 14:38:29 -0800
Indianapolis Colts QB Andrew Luck could have a new backup next season if impending free-agent QB Matt Hasselbeck does not return. QBs Josh Freeman and Ryan Lindley are both still under contract and would be next in line to back up Luck.

|Colts | Good chance for new Andrew Luck deal?
Tue, 02 Feb 2016 15:00:02 -0800
Updating a previous report, Indianapolis Colts QB Andrew Luck is healthy and there's a good chance he'll receive a new deal this offseason, according to owner Jim Irsay. Irsay said there's a good chance the Colts and Luck can get a long-term deal done this offseason. There haven't been any major negotiations yet, but Irsay said that's going to be happening as March approaches.
Fantasy Tip: Luck was forced to watch from the sideline for the better part of the 2015 season, but that didn't lessen the faith the Colts have in him as their future star quarterback. When Luck is fully healthy he's a candidate to be the top overall fantasy quarterback.

|Colts | Andrew Luck to be extended?
Mon, 01 Feb 2016 13:28:49 -0800
Indianapolis Colts QB Andrew Luck could receive a contract extension this offseason. The Colts have as much confidence in him now as they ever have.
Fantasy Tip: Luck has proven to be an elite quarterback when he's at full health. The injury bug really plagued Luck last year, which should turn out to be an anomaly. Continue to view him as a top-level QB1.

|Colts | Andrew Luck could ink extension
Sat, 09 Jan 2016 15:20:00 -0800
Indianapolis Colts QB Andrew Luck could sign a contract extension this offseason as he enters the final year of his rookie deal. "If we don't get an agreement," owner Jim Irsay said, "we still have time. And he is going to be signed. There's a reasonably good chance we can come to that agreement this offseason. He will be here, trust me. Andrew and I have talked - we talked after the end of the season - and he couldn't be more excited."
Fantasy Tip: Luck will likely be one of the first QBs taken in next year's drafts.

Love Without End - Written With Unwritten Soul - Poem by Gregory Allen Uhan
Creator awaken in me
childhood companion of lost memory
once again take control of my mind
carry my fatigue fallen body to the end
lift my life to safe refuge
so I may reach the finish line
pushing past broken dreams, tired bones,
every promise made forced to put on hold
giving chase to the suns shadow
falling through the moon's cellar door
from the far hills to the oceans wide
harken melancholia wails
of the wind and waves
from deserted valley
to abandoned port
death echoes
the call of oblivion
I've found despite what
falters and falls daily
something inside me
refuses to fail
and when what must
of this world and of myself
comes to meet
decidedly an end
spirits transiting
voyage between
spherical junctions
then and there
I know that place
beyond time
where we are free to peer
and stretch ourselves out
across the plain of eternity
free to dip our feet in
the waters of eden
where I keep the forgotten
fragments of my heart
letters of lost love
scatted in the sands
Cinderella's glass slipper
washed up along the shore
there is where the
seeking shall cease
the point of existence where
life intersects with soul
where there is waiting
truth without lies and
love without end

Video: How 7,000 Post-Its Came to Life
I'll admit it: I have a minor obsession with sticky notes. At home and in the office, I have stacks upon stacks of them, in every color imaginable. But aspiring filmmaker Zach King may have me beat.
Known as FinalCutKing, the YouTube sensation recently used 7,000 Post-Its to bring to life video-game hero Super Mario in a stop motion animation. As he traverses the office walls like a pro, Mario goes face-to-face with fellow icons Pac-Man and Tetris, jumping over clocks and collecting coins along the way.
King said the minute-and-a-half film "took ninja-like patience" to pull off. I say he deserves a kiss from Princess Peach for his efforts.
Thanks! You're on our list.

The Leasing Section of BOEM's Alaska OCS Region implements the federal government's Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Oil and Gas Leasing Five-Year Program within the bounds of the Alaska OCS Region. The section ensures that OCS Lands Act requirements and procedures are followed in the preparation and conduct of sales listed in the Five-Year Program.
In this capacity, the section works closely with the Alaska Region's other program offices (Environment, and Resource Evaluation) to develop appropriate lease mitigation and terms of sale to help ensure expeditious and orderly development -- subject to environmental safeguards -- of America's oil and gas resources. The section adjudicates bids and issues leases to the highest responsible qualified bidder(s) after completion of fair market value review.
The Proposed Final Five-Year Program for 2012 to 2017 introduces several enhancements to the Alaska OCS lease sale process. These enhancements include targeted leasing, an interactive mapping tool, and a mitigation program tracking table.
The Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (often referred to simply as OCSLA) authorizes the Department of the Interior to grant leases to the highest bidder for the exploration, development and production of oil and gas contained within the Outer Continental Shelf (generally defined as the submerged lands lying around and outside three geographical miles off each state).
These rights are conveyed by contracts referred to as leases. Each lease covers an area that is no more than 5,760 acres, and is generally a square measuring 3 miles by 3 miles.
Outer Continental Shelf Program's Leasing, Exploration and Development Process
Under a lease, a company has the right to apply for permits to explore and develop the mineral resources within that area. Before approving the permits, BOEM carefully reviews all applications to ensure that the activities will be conducted in a safe and environmentally sound manner and that the interests of key stakeholders are effectively addressed.

Thanks, Erin!
I think I'm going to order that for Matthew this week.

Honestly, I haven't even tried to teach him yet. I just figure he'll learn how to do it when he feels compelled to. There is so much other stuff we're working on...reading, writing, math. You can still go to college if you don't know how to tie your shoes...LOL
My ped. did ask about it at the 6yr well visit, but i just told him the same thing I said above...
Madison doesn't tie her shoes yet. She started to get it but then I dropped the ball by not making her practice enough. I told her she had to learn it this year.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Don't look. Just listen. The ball sounds louder coming off Dexter Fowler's bat. It goes farther too.
The Rockies center fielder — and arguably the most important player to their lineup — didn't have to tell teammates what he did all winter. His swings in the batting cage told the story.
"I feel stronger in my legs and my shoulders," Fowler said. "I can tell that the ball is jumping off the bat a little more."
Fowler's training doesn't guarantee results, but he put himself in a position to succeed. Eager to build off his second-half finish to 2011, Fowler worked out in Las Vegas with Troy Tulowitzki and Jason Giambi. Following a strict diet and training regiment, Fowler added 7 pounds of muscle. He weighs 193 pounds, and by the time he arrived in training camp, he was lifting as much weight as Tulowitzki.
Fowler isn't adding muscle at the expense of speed. He focused on first-step quickness, determined to improve his stolen base numbers after two disappointing seasons.
Footnotes. Giambi arrived Wednesday and is expected to practice today. The first full-squad workout is Monday. Second baseman Marco Scutaro is the only other player who hasn't arrived. ... Former first-round draft pick Christian Friedrich has been impressive this week. The left-handed starter has dropped nearly 35 pounds. "He has jumped into a different body and a different brain. He's maturing and showing a very good arm," pitching coach Bob Apodaca said. ... The Rockies' home opener at Coors Field isn't sold out. But tickets for spring training games are going quickly, with most games expected to be sellouts.

12 for 12 -- 94th percentile. If questions like that are a challenge for most Americans, it's no wonder the electorate has been making such poor decisions lately. It also underscores the point that opinion polls simply reflect the predominance of a belief among a society, and not necessarily the validity of that belief.

That was an easy one.
Opinion polls reflect....... opinion.
I thought that was obvious.

Then why do you keep posting polls on this forum like you're trying to convince us of the validity of some position you're postulating? We see that again and again from the left. Whenever there's debate, they start dragging out the polls to back their position. They seem to think that we're all political lemmings that need someone to tell us where the crowd is going.

12 for 12. This quiz isn't even a challenge.
BTW pangolin, if you had read the info on the results page, you would know that this quiz was based on a poll. It gives you demographic poll results. Or didn't you get that far in the quiz??
Sat, 2009-04-11 05:06#7
Another Pew News Quiz
I did see the demographics on the news quiz poll cowgal, but no opinion poll, could you tell me where it is or perhaps link?
Opinion polls poll opinion, as I said.
Pew does opinion polling but this is a poll of factual material. Pew is polling to find out the level of pulblic knowledge of the economy. I mean Bernanke really is the fed chaiman. You might preffer Greenspan but the guy who is in charge now is Bernanke, you can have an opinion about Bernanke but the fact that he is the Fed Chairman is firmly understood by the fact based community.
Opinion polling when done right elicits opinion from the people in the poll in such a way that you can extrapolate the results to cover a much broader swath of the general public. Questions are carefully worded not to get an intended result but to more accurately assess people's opinions.
Polls which are worded so to influence answers, such as "do you approve or disaprove of the socialist Muslim who is apt to eat your children" or rely on self selected respondents such as an internet polls are generaly not regarded as a true poll. Often these polls are used to try to manipulate opinion, such as before the last election when Fox posted a Zogby poll that showed McCain up in the presidential election. The intent was to encourage Republican voters to show up at the polls rather than staying home during an election that was a forgone conclusion.
There is another type of poll called a push poll. It's a low form of negative campaigning usually using the telephone and robo calls. The most famous instance was when Karl Rove asked South Carolina residents "Would you be more likely or less likely to vote for John McCain for president if you knew he had fathered an illegitimate black child?" Absolutely untrue but in a state and party with lingering racism it pushed all the right buttons. George Bush won that primary, heck of a fella.
Sat, 2009-04-11 12:08#8
Another Pew News Quiz
After you take the quiz, your score is compared to a phone survey of the same questions. No link, you need to do the entire quiz, then read the results and how they put together the results to compare yours to. Geez, this was your post. Didn't you read it? BTW, I said poll, not opinion poll.
Sat, 2009-04-11 16:45#9

Well you don't have to take any of the quiz actually, that's how I originaly happened on the quiz. Pew is a site I have bookmarked and I go there once in a while. Ya I know, it's not TV but oh well.

Loan Overview
Repayment Schedule
Ebenezer is a 17-year-old full-time student at African Leadership Academy (ALA), a two-year pre-university program in Johannesburg, South Africa, with a mission to identify, develop, and connect Africa's future leaders.
Ebenezer was selected as one of 95 ALA students out of a pool of over 3,000 applicants from across the continent for his passion for public service, his commitment to Africa, and his demonstrated leadership potential to lead change in Africa and beyond.
Ebenezer is applying for a loan of $500, which will enable him to purchase a laptop to conduct assignments and research, to run his community service project and/or student run business which forms part of the ALA curriculum, and to participate fully in the world-class program offered by ALA.
Ebenezer comes from a humble background and is one of a family of nine.
A true entrepreneur, Ebenezer has the ability to view challenges as opportunities for positive action. When his parents could no longer afford to pay school fees for him and his sister, Ebenezer initiated and ran a cake selling enterprise, and he was able to make enough money to pay for his and his sister's school fees. He also successfully started his own business, setting up a communications center where he acted as the administrator and oversaw photocopying, processing of photos, and typing. "I believe in putting knowledge into action," says Ebenezer.
Ebenezer is also passionate about uplifting and motivating his community and was very involved in bringing people together for religious and educational programs. He organized many spiritual reunions and tutoring sessions with his peers and was nominated to become the president of a religious group at his school. He was also a leader for an AIDS campaign and the secretary for the student government at his school. He is very proud of African culture and believes that Africa should be modernized and developed but not without an emphasis on values.
Academically, Ebenezer is a high achiever. He recently came in 12th in his country in a math Olympiad contest.
Ebenezer is passionate about transforming the world by transforming Africa. His goal is to be a strategic adviser to African governments to help create high-growth strategies. He believes that transformative leadership comes from leading by example to inspire and influence others. "Leaders must be self-aware and most importantly cognizant of the fact that they do not always have the answers," says Ebenezer.
Additional Information
About African Leadership Academy
African Leadership Academy
(ALA) is a pan-African institution established to transform Africa by identifying, developing and connecting the continent's next generation of leaders. ALA utilizes a vast network of contacts across Africa to identify the most promising 15- to 19-year-old leaders on the continent. These future leaders are then brought together for a two-year pre-university program at a world-class institution in Johannesburg, South Africa. Many of these students attend college in the U.S. with the promise to return to Africa after their studies. ALA's student body comes from over 44 African countries and includes equal numbers of boys and girls.
In the digital age, the importance of technology in leadership and student life cannot be underestimated. To equip ALA students with the technological tools they need to be transformative leaders, Kiva provides laptop loans totalling about $500 per student ad the start of every academic year.
Loan documentation for this student has been signed by both the student and his or her parent or guardian. Further, this student's parent or guardian has been consulted throughout the process of this student's decision to take on a loan through Kiva.
This partner joined Kiva through our
Experimental Partnership Program
, and has therefore received a lighter level of due diligence. Accordingly, loans associated with this partner pose a higher level of risk than typical Kiva loans.
