Barkeep Noah MomyerThe Watering Hole: Monsoon East, 10245 Main St., 425-635-1112. BELLEVUE.
The Atmosphere: Perhaps one of the most celebrated restaurants in Bellevue, Monsoon is many a culinarian's go-to for good food on the eastside. The tones are unmistakably Asian, with warm lighting, beautiful accents and cozy seating to coax diners back into the arms of a giant Vietnamese hug. Pair with that spot-on delicious food made by cooks who have been in the trenches long enough to know how to properly grill seafood and season beef. Even the tofu coming out of this kitchen is exciting. The bar is a bright distraction from the dimly-lit dining room, where diners seem to be head-down, enthralled with what's on their plate. Here, the atmosphere is a joyful one, especially during happy hour, which is when we decided to First Call. Maybe the recently-launched cocktail menu had something to do with all of the happy faces. Nah, it was probably the discounted food.
The Barkeep: Noah Momyer (MOH'-meyer). He's been at Monsoon East for seven months. Before that, you might have seen him at Mistral Kitchen. Originally from Southern California, Momyer has been a Seattleite for about three years. The weather hasn't scared him off yet.
"When it's nice, you realize all the things you have to do out here and it's great," says Momyer. "I went to Discovery Park for the first time a couple of weeks ago."
Another thing on Momyer's discovery list: bars.
"I like hitting dive bars on the way home and just have a shot and a beer after making cocktails all night. For good drinks, I like The Innkeeper. I live in Belltown, so I've been going there. They're awesome. They know what they're doing. They have a great liquor selection, which is pretty rare for Belltown. Spur is great. Of course there's also Canon, Mistral Kitchen and Zig Zag."
Meet Mr. RicardoThe Drink: A Ricardo, which is Momyer's take on a Rickey. It's made with two kinds of gin: one infused with wu wei tea and the other infused with plums (Averell Damson gin). Fresh lime juice and agave nectar are also added before the whole thing is topped with soda water and served on the rocks.
The Verdict: It may look like your average 'pink drink,' but this had more body to it, more substance. It was very refreshing and not overly alcoholic. A tad on the sweet side. The tea-infused gin is the prominent flavor, which is great if you're also not accustomed to those clover, herbal notes of wu wei.

Phelps struck out a career-high 11 batters and allowed just one hit over 6 2/3 innings, dominating the Red Sox's Double-A affiliate in his first Eastern League start in two years as Trenton one-hit Portland, 3-0, at Waterfront Park.
Phelps, who threw 62 of his 94 pitches for strikes, was optioned to the Minors on July 5 to make room for Darnell McDonald, an outfielder New York claimed off waivers from Boston. Phelps' demotion came a day after he allowed a run over 4 1/3 innings in a spot start against David Price and Tampa Bay.
With the All-Star break this week, it's thought the Yankees sent the Notre Dame product to Trenton so he could get in some work building up his pitch count and stay on normal rest.
Phelps could rejoin the Yankees after the All-Star break, though manager Joe Girardi said last week that the plan hasn't yet been discussed.
Phelps can not return to the Majors for 10 days, so the length of his stay in Trenton is unclear. He's pitched well in his two opportunities in the Majors this season, going 1-3 with a 3.05 ERA in 15 outings, including three starts spanning 41 1/3 innings. He's also started a pair of games for Class A Advanced Tampa.
On Monday, the righty was untouchable following a first inning one-out double by Jeremy Hazelbaker and a two-out walk to Reynaldo Rodriguez. He struck out Matt Spring to end the inning, the first of 18 straight batters he retired before departing with two outs in the seventh after fanning Rodriguez.
Trenton reliever Danny Farquhar recorded the final seven outs, striking out three, to complete the one-hitter.
Phelps' effort marked the most strikeouts he'd totaled in a start since he whiffed 10 on July 18, 2010 for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre; he also struck out 10 for Trenton on June 20, 2010 in his last stint with the Double-A club.
Trenton gave its starter some early run support on home runs by Jose Pirela in the first and third innings, both off Portland's Caleb Clay. Third baseman Rob Segedin added his first homer in the seventh off Chorye Spoone.

This Father's Day, dads in one local community are passing on the rest and relaxation. Instead they're taking a stand against crime.
James Micklon has lived on Ponderosa Drive for 25 years. He says, "I raised two children in the neighborhood. I felt very comfortable with them out here, no problems."
But times have changed, and Micklon has watched his neighborhood transform into a criminal hub of activity. It's a street that's been plagued by drugs, trash and several drive-by shootings over the years.
Residents say they've had enough and are ready to take back their neighborhood, with a little help from all the fathers out there.
"We believe the fathers are our leaders and they play a very important role in children's lives and they play a very important role in the growth of our community," shared J.D. Martin, a crime rally organizer.
Many dads out there agree. Fathers like James Wright say, "This has a direct impact in my family and the city of Valdosta; when we allow these things to grow and breed in our community, then it affects all of us."
Crime rally organizers say this effort will show criminals that neighbors, family members and friends are working to clean this area up once and for all.
The Father's Day crime rally kicked off this weekend, but organizers say the cleanup effort is just beginning.

The beauty of a sub sandwich is there's really no right or wrong way to make it, or so it would seem. Add some cheese, sauces, deli meats, chopped veggies -- it's basically a big salad wrapped in bread, thereby allowing you to forgo the fork and knife and be the heathen you really are. Toasted? Sure! Dijon mustard and mayo and spicy Southwest sauce and oil and vinegar? Of course! The more, the merrier. Sounds simple, right? Enter Sarducci's Specialty Subs in Kirkland (955 6th St S), where they've managed to make a complete mess of the easiest food item ever.
Siiri Sampson 2011. Trying to hide your cheap, crappy ingredients inside a big, fluffy loaf of bread only distracts me for so long.
Sarducci's occupies a small suite in a Kirkland strip mall. So small that upon arrival it's completely full of middle-aged men and the lunch-rush line has reached the door. Waiting outside for a few minutes until the line moves up isn't that bad. After all, it must be a good sign, since places that suck are usually deserted, with a swarm of flies out front as a warning sign.
|Siiri Sampson 2011.
|That seems pretty sanitary....for a prison.
There's nowhere to sit; the three cramped tables are occupied, so now it's a to-go order. The final result is soggy bread and highly processed turkey, a la Lunchables. Except for the lettuce, toppings were skimpy and the tuna was oddly sugary, like it had sweet pickle relish in it; a flavor that didn't mesh well with the savory notes of the other ingredients. All things considered, if you're Jonesing for a hearty and quality sandwich, skip Sarducci's and head to Gilbert's.

WARRIOR PRINCESS by WieringoWatch

An idea I had for an Irish princess/queen standing defiantly by the sea side cliffs of her territory.
Would you feel comfortable submitting this image into the Battle Ready Womyn group? [link] Were a group dedicated to realistically armoured women warriors and respectful interpretations of them and feel this artwork fits group qualifications. Hope you chose to contribute! (This would be best submitted into the Metal Ages folder).
That's awesome! makes me think of Queen Elizabeth I.
Well done (and she's a redhead!)
I always had a thing for red heads.
Quite the bonny lass...
She looks like she's just spotted something troubling

Was taking some pictures this morning :3 It was such a lovely day I couldn't pass up the chance!!
OMG how much i wanna be tifa in this pic *gropes cloud's ass*
I can't blame her... who wouldn't want to grab his cute chocobo butt... u//////u
Tifa: "Nice ass Cloud :3"
Cloud: "Thanks babe"
Cloud: "Thanks babe"
That a new Cloud? Haven't seen him in your videos XD
Yes... I wanted to get his original game version so I bought him on Amazon a few weeks ago. Funny thing was, it was cheaper to buy the set with Hardy Daytona than the standalone figure, so now I have a bike that I have no room for on my shelf. Lol
I want Hardy Daytona to go with my Cloud but now if I want it I'll have to buy another FF7 Cloud lawlwhut.
I liked Fenrir though :3 I had to get that with AC Cloud.

Hawaiian Islands COLA Survey Open Now
February 6, 2014
By courtesy
Your time is now to provide input into how much extra cash goes into your pocket. Any service member who does not reside in the barracks and is assigned to duty in the State of Hawaii as his or her permanent duty station for at least 3 months, should take the Cost of Living Allowance (COLA) survey.
Whether you are on the Big Island, Kauai, Oahu or any island, help ensure you are getting the extra money that reflects your local economy and extra cost of living here in Hawaii.
Every three years, the Department of Defense conducts a COLA Living Pattern Survey (LPS). This survey is one of the building blocks of COLA. The data collected in this survey identifies the types of the local economy outlets where military members shop and the amount each of these outlets are used by military members. DOD then compares the prices in Hawaii to averages in the continental United States and the resulting COLA reflects the difference.
This COLA survey asks which local economy outlets individuals use when they shop for food items, clothing, and many other goods and services, such as hair care, and auto repair. It also asks them how much of their shopping is done on the local economy, and how much is done at the Commissary, Exchange, or on the internet.
The survey is available now and remain until February 28, 2014 at the following link: https://www.defensetravel.dod.mil/site/lps-hawaii.cfm. This link is also available at www.pacom.mil by clicking on the graphic that says, "COLA Living Pattern Survey Hawaii." The survey takes about 30 minutes to complete.
The key to success is maximum participation and accurate data. Final rates will vary from island to island based on local purchasing power.

It's true.
It's true.
I like em covered in lobster and with out the scone
i make scones at work. i think they are going ot make me fat.
It might be time to make some blueberry lemon scones since blueberries are in season. Yum.
Savory scones are where it's at.
Tea and scones with clotted cream and strawberries on them. I have this everyday for my tea.
I haven't made scones in a while... tasty breakfast. I'm half english so I've got the pinky thing down.
Scones are super easy to make, and hard to screw up. Unless you are distracted and leave the butter out.
My favorite recipe is with dried cherries, almonds, and just a handful of white chocolate chips.
Substitute blueberries for cranberries and lemon zest for orange. Don't overwork the dough (I just pat it together) and they will come out nice and puffy.
bacon and cheese muffins.

Skip to comments.Fetuses Have Memories, Study Says
Posted on 07/20/2009 7:41:30 PM PDT by fishhound
(July 20) - You probably recall little of your days in the womb, but a new study suggests that short-term memory may be present in fetuses at 30 weeks of age. Until a few decades ago, "people would say that the human fetus is a sort of black box," said Dr. Jan Nijhuis, a co-author of the study and an obstetrician at Maastricht University Medical Center in The Netherlands. Studies over the years have started to reveal more about the neurological development of humans before they are born, but researchers are still trying to figure out when memory begins and how long it can last. The new study tested how fetuses in nearly 100 pregnant women responded to a specific stimulus, in this case, a "vibroacoustic stimulation," which is a very low sound that makes a vibration. The researchers observed the reaction using an ultrasound. When the fetus first receives the stimulation, it is startled. But after repeated trials of the same stimulation, 30 seconds apart, the fetus gets used to the sound and doesn't react.
(Excerpt) Read more at news.aol.com ...
Well, I have heard of parents talking to babies in the womb and that the babies recognize their parents' voices afterwards... :-)
Nonsense! A fetus is just extraneous tissue, to be removed at the mother's will, like a cyst. The folks at Planned Parenthood said so, and all the liberals agree.
This is very intresting. and I am wondering if there is a spiritual component to this too.
For some reason from the time I was very very little, I was always against alcohol. Even now, I will drink a few beers every now and then with some friends. but the idea of hard drinks or going to a bar makes me sick.
My mom was a alcoholic. I know for a fact she drank a lot when she was pregnant with me. I had ADD and a lot of problems in school. and mood issues. but my IQ is normal and thank God and I am a functional adult, although the simple things are not always simple for me. It could have been much worse. a lot of people are not functional for that reason. and have deeper issues
but I really have thought before. that my mothers drinking. prenatally and when I was young. had a spiritual and mental effect on me that I hated alcohol. I avoid large gatherings and drinking parties to this day.
This may seem far fetched. but I have thought about it many many times.
Another nail in the abortion debate coffin. Undifferentiated fetal tissue does not have a memory.
Of course fetuses hear the voices of their parents and those outside.
(And John the Baptist leapt in his mother's womb on hearing the voice of Mary. I.E. John the Baptist was a person,
and he recognized the voice of another person.)
Pro-life ping
When my youngest was born, one of the nurses was in the room and holding my daughter so that she couldn't see me, and was talking to her.
The nurse then said something to me and I replied. My daughter, only 2-3 days old at that time, whipped her head around and stared right at me.
We were both very surprised but it was clear that my daughter recognized my voice.
Thanks for the info!! I know the baby will respond to parents voices...nice to know other people are getting it!
I have a memory of a repeat dream - a "sensation dream" - that I believe is a recall of the descent through the birth canal. I remember having the "sensation dream" a few dozen times when I was 4 to 6 years old. The dream was primarily an imagined sensation of undulating pressure along the full length of my body. Having the "sensation dream" was accompanied by an attitude of awe and the thrill of concern, but not fear. That made the dream itself a thrill to have. They were strange because there was nothing visual about them. As I recall, I would only have them, or only remember when I had them, as I tended to fall asleep. I would apparently have a conscious thought about the dream and commit the dream experience to current memory. It wasn't until decades later that I came to believe those old "sensation dreams" were derived from the birthing experience.
So, I believe the human brain, incredibly malleable as it is, is capable of attention to it's surroundings, and capable of storing information, albeit probably not with much organization, very early on.
How is it possible to believe that?
You believe it if...
You don't have children
Don't want children
Are greedy
Are lazy
Are immoral
Are selfish
Don't take responsibility
Believe that killing babies is your 'choice'
Don't want someone else to raise your 'fetus'
At 25 weeks post-conception, we can see the differences between male and female brains in humans. How do we know this? From autopsies of those stillborn.
I don't consider the removal of necrotic foetal tissue from the womb to be abortion of any kind.
I consider abortion in the first trimester a tragedy, but not murder. It certainly shouldn't be considered contraception.
I consider abortion in the third trimester to be infanticide. That may be necessary, just as separating a conjoined twin so at least one will live rather than both die is necessary homicide, but it's not something to be considered lightly. You're taking a human life. The gain had better be commensurate with that.
The problem arises during the second trimester. I have no good answer there. Late second trimester abortion should be considered infanticide, early second trimester not, but how to define "early" and "late"?
My opinions are based solely on neurological development. An otherwise healthy human - foetus or adult - with no functional cerebral cortex I do not consider should be given the same consideration as a human capable of feeling and/or thought. But not treated as a "thing" either.
But opinions are even more common than anal sphincters - because everyone has an opinion, but some people have had colostomies.
I remember it being very humid in there...
I'm not surprised. My oldest child had newborn jaundice and had to give a blood sample every day to check her bili levels. At first, she didn't cry until the needle actually pricked her foot. But by the 3rd test...she started crying when they put the warming pad on her foot BEFORE they pricked it. She knew what was coming.

PAA Natural Gas Storage Reports Third-Quarter 2012 Results
PNG) today reported net income of $17.9 million, or $0.24 per diluted limited partner unit, for the third quarter of 2012, compared to respective results for the third quarter of 2011 of $15.4 million and $0.21. The Partnership reported earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization ("EBITDA") of $29.3 million for the third quarter of 2012, compared with EBITDA of $26.3 million for the third quarter of 2011. The Partnership's reported results include items that affect comparability between reporting periods. These items are excluded from adjusted results, as further described in the second table below. Accordingly, the Partnership's third-quarter 2012 adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted limited partner unit and adjusted EBITDA were $18.3 million, $0.25 and $29.7 million, respectively, as compared to third-quarter 2011 respective results of $16.0 million, $0.22 and $26.9 million. (See the section of this release entitled "Non-GAAP and Segment Financial Measures" and the tables included with this press release for a presentation of adjusted EBITDA and other non-GAAP financial measures, and reconciliations of such measures to the comparable GAAP measures.)"PNG delivered solid third-quarter results above the high-end of our guidance marking the ninth consecutive quarter PNG has performed in line with or ahead of guidance. This performance was underpinned by fee-based cash flow associated with our highly contracted storage capacity along with solid execution from our commercial optimization team," said Dean Liollio, President of PAA Natural Gas Storage. "Our preliminary 2013 guidance reflects the addition of low-cost storage capacity at Southern Pines and Pine Prairie, which is expected to largely offset the adverse impact of lease renewals during challenging natural gas storage market conditions. With strategically located assets, an attractive portfolio of fee-based storage contracts, a solid balance sheet and approximately $173 million of committed liquidity, the Partnership remains well positioned for 2013 and to participate in the long-term fundamental growth in storage demand."

Re: FA 80-320 or FA 100-300 - IQ on a K10, or better off w/ new DA?
I had the 80-320mm for a while, not a bad lens, actually almost on par with the 55-300mm except for wide open performance at the long end. It's barely usable there unless stopped down to f/11 (!). A 100-300mm zoom is only a 3x zoom (vs 4x for the 80-320mm) so the odds may be better in its favor but I have no experience with this (these? as it seems there are a few variants) lens. The thing I didn't like either about the 80-320mm was the rotating front element and the absence of a hood (but you can screw one with a 58mm thread).

Navy MBB vs. Binghamton (Nov. 14, 2012)
Last season, Nestor helped Navy win 13 games, a four-win improvement from the previous season, and Navy doubled its conference win total to eight victories. Navy also defeated Army three times during the 2014-15 season, including in the Patriot League Tournament. Under the guidance of Nestor, centers Will Kelly and Edward Alade showed remarkable improvement in 2014-15.
In 2013-14, Navy increased its overall win total for the second straight season and doubled its conference win total from a year ago. Nestor, who coaches Navy's big men, helped Will Kelly nearly double his point-per game average and raise his rebounding totals. Kelly had a pair of double-doubles in his sophomore season.
Following the 2013-14 season, Nestor was received a 'Guardians of the Game' award from the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC). Nestor's Guardians of the Game honor was for education, which is presented each year to a coach who is committed to continuing education and the development of their profession in order to be better mentors, teachers and leaders.
In 2012-13, the Midshipmen improved by five wins from the previous season, ranking as the ninth-best single-season improvement in school history.
Nestor came to Navy after spending the 2011-12 season at Missouri as an assistant coach. The Tigers went 30-5, won the Big 12 Championship and were ranked in the nation's top five for the majority of the season. He was credited in the development of Mizzou big man Ricardo Ratliffe, who showed drastic improvement from 2010-11 to 2011-12, when he led the country in field goal percentage (.693) and averaged 13.9 ppg and 7.5 rpg while earning all-Big 12 second-team honors. In addition, guard Kim English spoke highly of Coach Nestor and the work the duo accomplished during the year. English averaged 14.5 points per game and shot a blistering 45.9 percent from three-point range.
Nestor arrived at Mizzou after one season as the Director of Basketball Operations at Penn State University under DeChellis. The Nittany Lions were one of the country's most improved teams in 2010-11, going 19-15 and earning an at-large spot in the 2011 NCAA Tournament.
Nestor's coaching experience began in 1970-71 with a six-year stint as a high school head coach, but continued with stops at James Madison (1977-79), Wake Forrest (1980-85), California (1986-88), George Mason (1989-93), a return trip to Wake Forest (1994-01), South Carolina (2002-03), Elon (2004-2009), the New Jersey Nets (2010) and Penn State (2011).
Nestor is no stranger to player development and bench strategy at the major college level. He has spent time in the Pac-10, ACC, SEC, Big Ten and Big 12 conferences as an assistant during his four-decade collegiate coaching career and spent time on Dave Odom's staff at Wake Forest. He has also twice been a Division I head coach during his career, with stints at both Elon College and George Mason. During his career, he has helped recruit and develop Tim Duncan, Josh Howard and Darius Songaila into NBA stars.
Nestor's five seasons at George Mason and six years at Elon were as the program's head coach. He led George Mason to its first-ever NCAA Tournament in 1989 and topped the 20-win mark each of his first two seasons while reaching the CAA Tournament finals in 1991. He returned to Wake Forest in 1993 and helped the Demon Deacons to ACC Championships in 1995 and 1996 while the 1996 club advanced to the NCAA regional final, where it fell to the eventual NCAA National Champion, Kentucky. The 2000 Wake Forest team was the NIT Champion.
Nestor returned to the head coaching ranks at Elon College in 2003 and he directed the school's first winning season as a Division I program in 2006. The Phoenix won 15 games (15-14 overall), including a 74-69 win at Clemson. The team also claimed the Southern Conference's North Division crown and Nestor was named the SoCon Coach of the Year by both the league's coaches and media. His 2008 Elon team advanced to the Southern Conference Tournament final, where it was defeated by a Davidson squad led by Steph Curry that reached the NCAA Elite Eight.
During his collegiate coaching career, he has been a part of 11 teams that reached NCAA Tournament play and eight more that advanced to the NIT.
Nestor is a 1968 graduate of Alderson-Broaddus College (W. Va.) and he earned his graduate degree from West Virginia in 1970. He and his wife, Janet, have two children, Stephanie and Jennifer. They also have four grandchildren, Kodiak, Lucy, Clio and Jude.

Completed in March 2015, this report documents the types and quantities of materials generated in Illinois, the generating sectors, the quantities that are potentially recoverable and those that are otherwise landfilled. The study also sheds light on how much value there still is to capture and where it might be most economical to do so. This data can enable sound policy and program design, implementation and program analyses for both the public and private sector. The data can be used for strategic planning; developing legislative initiatives; evaluating effectiveness of current recovery efforts; targeting programs and educational efforts to advance recovery of commodities; providing guidance to state agencies and local governments; and aid in fulfilling the responsibilities under the Illinois Solid Waste Management Act, the Solid Waste Planning and Recycling Act, and the Illinois EPA Act by local governments or management districts. Click here for a copy of this document.
Public Act 97-853 (HB-4986) created this Task Force in an effort to review the status of recycling and solid waste management planning in Illinois. The goal of the Task Force was to investigate and provide recommendations for expanding waste reduction, recycling, reuse, and composting in Illinois in a manner that protects the environment, as well as public health and safety, and promotes economic development. Click here for a copy of this document.
The Illinois Department of Commerce The Illinois Department of Commerce in partnership with the Illinois Recycling Association (IRA) have worked to develop a tool to help Illinois businesses and organizations reduce the amount of material they pay to have landfilled. The "Recycling Works: A Toolkit for Reducing Waste in the Workplace" resource guide was developed by Shaw Environmental with the support of a the Department of Commerce grant to IRA. Click here for a copy of this document.
The Illinois Department of Commerce The Illinois Department of Commerce in partnership with the Illinois Recycling Association (IRA) have worked to develop this manual to further advance professional recycling in Illinois. The purpose and intent of this manual is to assist those Illinois counties, cities and businesses that own/operate materials recovery facilities (MRFs) and recycling drop-offs to evaluate their operations in accordance of with Best Operational Practices (BOPs) improve processing efficiencies, reduce operating costs, increase the potential to improve revenues for the materials recovered, to reduce negative environmental impacts, and advance safety consciousness. Click here for a copy of this document.
The Illinois Food Scrap Coalition (IFSC) was formed to build upon the growing interest in Illinois to advance food scrap composting across the state. The IFSC promotes diverting, capturing, and converting organic material to create quality compost that can be sold commercially and used to build soil nutrients, conserve water, sequester carbon, reduce the use of synthetic fertilizers, and replenish Illinois soils on farms, municipal and private sector landscaping and home garden applica¬tions. The IFSC also supports the use of food scraps for the creation of renewable energy and other useful by-prod¬ucts through the utilization of anaerobic digestion as an alternative to composting. The Food Scrap Composting Challenges and Solutions in Illinois Report, issued in January 2015, was funded by the Illinois Department of Commerce and authored by Illinois non-profit organization Seven Generations Ahead (SGA) on behalf of the IFSC. This report is designed to educate elected officials, composting industry stakeholders and advocates, and the public at-large about opportunities and strategies related to developing a robust food scrap composting industry in Illinois and is the culmination of national and regional research conducted on policies, programs, strategies, and economic development potential related to food scrap composting, and input through stakeholder forum. Click here for a copy of the report.
The USEPA developed the Decision Maker's Guide to Solid Waste Management for solid waste management practitioners including local government officials, facility owners and operators, consultants and regulatory agency specialists. This guide contains technical and economic information to help these practitioners meet the daily challenges of planning, managing, and operating municipal solid waste (MSW) programs and facilities. Its primary goals are to encourage reduction of waste at the source, and foster implementation of integrated solid waste management systems that are cost-effective and protect human health and the environment. Click here for a copy of this document.
The Illinois Counties Solid Waste Management Association (ILCSWMA) Recycling Measurements Working Group (Working Group) was established to address the inconsistencies and ambiguities encountered in the current recycling measurement reporting process for municipal waste. Unclear definitions and inconsistent interpretations have led to considerable variability in what Illinois counties have been counting as being recycled. This has resulted in a significant disparity of recycling rates from county to county, making them impossible to compare.
This report provides the actions and conclusions of the Working Group, as well as relevant background information. Included are descriptions of the approach taken, the agreed upon interpretations, the agreed upon recycling rate methodology, and recommendations concerning derivation of the waste generation rate, uniformed reporting periods, and the appropriate State agency to handle recycling reporting.

This study-- prepared by Tellus Institute with Sound Resource Management and prepared for the BlueGreen Alliance, Teamsters, SEIU, NRDC, Recycling Works!, and GAIA—provides strong evidence that an enhanced national recycling and composting strategy in the United States can significantly and sustainable address critical national priorities including climate change, lasting job creation, and improved health.

Reforming divorce: Changing laws to preserve families
States consider divorce reform in attempt to preserve families
"There's hardly any social problem that the government is involved in and spending a lot of money on that isn't heavily affected by marriages not forming and marriages breaking up," says Bill Doherty, professor and director of the Minnesota Couples on the Brink Project at the University of Minnesota.
A 2008 study on the costs of divorce and unwed childbearing estimated that family fragmentation costs taxpayers $112 billion annually for things like food stamps, housing assistance, child welfare services and the justice system.
In a 2005 article in "The Future of Children," University of Pennsylvania sociologist Paul Amato explained that if children were to grow up in stable two-parent families at the same level as 1960 before the massive increase in divorce, it would mean 1.2 million fewer children suspended from school, 538,000 fewer acts of delinquency and 71,400 fewer suicide attempts.
Willett's kids aren't skipping school or tagging cars, but they're still struggling, and Willett is determined to help others avoid the same pain. She's a co-chair with the Coalition for Divorce Reform, along with Chris Gersten, a former official with the Administration for Children and Families in the Department of Health and Human Services.
Their non-partisan, volunteer-run organization wants to reduce unnecessary divorce and promote healthy marriages by changing divorce laws and increasing awareness about the impacts of splitting families.
"(We think) if we're not happy and self-fulfilled in every way, our marriages are a failure … and it's not going to get any better," Willett said. "Those are huge misconceptions. Most people don't even know about marriage education … how couples can come back together and those marriages can grow and be stronger. We've just lost our understanding of hard work and patience and how it pays off."
Slow it down
It began with snide comments then grew to heated arguments. But the worst was strained silence during dinner as Jennifer Graham and her then-husband talked with their four children but avoided looking at each other.
The bump in their 18-year marriage had quickly become a mountain, and after two years of fighting, several less-than-effective marriage counselors and a year of him sleeping on the couch, Jennifer willingly signed divorce papers to stop the pain.
"It took me about four months after he moved out to where things were quiet enough inside of me that I could start to heal from the difficult period we had been through," said the Boston mom. "At that point, I saw very clearly what the impact would be on our kids, and it was ugly."
When Jennifer reached out a month before the divorce was to be final, asking that they try one more time, it was just too late.
It's been almost two-and-a-half years, and Jennifer and her children are still struggling.
"He's remarried, and I'm still not over it," she said. "Looking back, there are so many things I wish we had done differently. We just didn't try enough. I wish the state, which claims to be on the side of marriage, had done more in terms of making us wait it out."
Requiring that parents wait eight months to a year before a divorce would be final (except in cases of abuse) is the first element of divorce reform proposals.
"Anything that's done quickly is generally not well thought out," said Ken Altshuler, president of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers. "When people got married they committed for life; I don't think waiting a year is a hardship."
In Maine, where Altshuler practices, the waiting period for a divorce is 60 days. Including the District of Columbia, 10 states have zero waiting periods, 29 states are less than six months, seven states are six months and five states have a waiting period of one year or longer, according to data gathered by John Crouch, former director of Americans for Divorce Reform and now a board member of the CDR.
Crouch also found that nine of the 10 states with the highest divorce rates required no waiting. Of the ten states with the lowest divorce rates, five required waiting.

Stocks setup for fall
It is ironic that stocks are at five years highs going into what is probably going to be the biggest disappointment of an earning`s season since the 2008 financial crisis. We got a hint of 4th quarter results during the disaster which was the 3rd quarter earning`s season where most companies missed on the revenue side, and those that beat EPS guidance, did so barely, and most of that was created through stock buybacks and creative smoothing techniques.
[Related -Bogle Says Indexing Destined To Win The Battle Of The Quants]
The fact that companies have to struggle so much just to meet expectations tells how bad things are from a corporate profit standpoint. They have cut their operations to the bone for the last three years, and built earnings up from the bottom, and that strategy has reached its point of exhaustion. No more to be squeezed out of that cost cutting strategy.
The Fiscal Cliff
Moreover, with the continual uncertainty coming out of Washington from a policy perspective, code word the Fiscal Cliff, it`s unlikely that CEO`s committed much towards year end discretionary CAP EX purchases which would spur corporate growth during the fourth quarter. So expect to hear the term Fiscal Cliff during Earning`s season quite a lot as the primary excuse for business headwinds by the executive teams during conference calls.
[Related -VMAX and VMIN Poised to Be Most Important VIX ETP Launch in Years]
Deja Vu
Last quarter stocks were at these same levels, and companies started missing and no one wanted to sell hoping that they would get better earning`s reports, but firms just kept missing, and getting taken down one by one while the market stayed afloat at elevated levels.
Then more and more firms were missing on the same days, the big boys started missing, and finally the shorts were going to take multiple firms stocks down on the same day, and Wall Street pumpers threw in the proverbial towel on an options expiration Friday of all days, and took prices down to the next level in most stocks.
In other words, they tried to ignore the bad earnings and keep the rally alive, but the shorts are going to punish bad earning`s regardless of bullish sentiment.
Expect the same pattern of behavior as most fund managers are sheep and too stupid to actually get out before earnings season starts, and buy after the inevitable selloff. They wait and hope and once one big player unloads they all run for the exits at the same time leaving quite a carnage in stocks along the way.
One benefit is that short sellers can get some very cheap puts and establish some very attractive entry points for the inevitable ride back below 1400 in the S&P 500.
The Debt Fight
Moreover, with the upcoming fight over increasing the debt limit just around the corner expect quite a sizable selloff in markets which sends everybody back into the comforts of bonds teasing bond vigilantes once again, and reminding everyone including the fed that we really are still in a deflationary, deleveraging cycle that will not turn until true growth based upon sound financial principles are in place in Washington.
Washington is the biggest reason this economy has taken so long to recover from the financial crisis in 2008. And their ineptitude has caused the fed to overcompensate with an unprecedented and borderline extreme monetary solution which remains to be seen what the eventual unintended consequences are of said policy.
As this is new territory for the fed, and a grand experiment which economists will be analyzing for the next 50 years of academic study as to the ultimate costs & benefits to our society.
Cost cutting versus top-line growth
Corporations have had to watch costs the last three years, work their employees longer hours, control costs from an operational standpoint, i.e., operate more efficiency and take advantage of low financing and borrowing costs to manufacture earnings where they can through stock buybacks and creative use of capital.
But the one thing that hasn`t been present for corporations is an environment where the economy is robust and we are adding 500,000 jobs a month to the economy, and they can afford to hire and grow profits from the top line through new growth opportunities.
Expect to see the 4th quarter earning`s season reflective of squeezing all that can be had from the bottom line over the last three years, and the lack of true growth opportunities, which showed its ugly head during the 3rd quarter earnings results, make a pronounced appearance this earning`s season.
Fund Managers are slow learners
Stocks will get hit hard as shorts take down the earning`s misses one by one, until the fund managers get the hint, and start selling before the shorts eat into their profits, and start dumping everything mid-way through this earning`s season.

Mindsight: Dan Siegel Offers Therapists a New Vision of the Brain
Wylie, Mary Sykes, Psychotherapy Networker
Dan Siegel offers therapists a new vision of the brain
by Mary Sykes Wylie
In 1999, a few months after child psychiatrist Daniel Siegel's book The Developing Mind: Toward a Neurobiology of Interpersonal Experience was published, Siegel received an e-mail, purporting to be from a representative of Pope John Paul II, asking him to come to the Vatican to talk to the Pope. Thinking the e-mail was a prank, Siegel ignored it--why would the Pope invite an expert on the neurobiology of childhood attachment over to the Vatican to schmooze? Nevertheless, one enigmatic detail of the message stuck in Siegel's mind as he deleted it: the Pope, according to the message, wanted very much to know why "the mother's gaze" was so critical to the growth and emotional well-being of a baby.
As it turned out, the e-mail was legitimate. An official letter soon followed from the Pontifical Council for the Family, formally inviting Siegel to be the main speaker at a Vatican conference for church leaders and Catholic social services providers and missionaries, to be followed by a private Papal audience for Siegel and his family. Siegel accepted the invitation with one caveat: he wanted the Pope to know ahead of time that the all-important loving gaze could come from either parent or from another attachment figure--it didn't have to originate with the mother.
Reading John Paul's biography before he left for Rome, Siegel discovered something he thought might explain the Pope's request. When John Paul was asked by the biographer if he remembered much about his mother, who had died when he was a young child, he said no at first. Then, a bit later, he backed up, saying he did recall one thing--"I remember my mother's gaze." Could the Pope want Siegel to explain what happened in the brain that made this ephemeral moment in the life of a young boy still resonate, like a lost dream, many decades later in the heart and mind of a frail, elderly man?
What drew the Pope to Siegel's work was apparently the search for some illumination about the small, everyday miracle of that gaze--what novelist George Eliot called "the meeting eyes of love"--that every child yearns for and must have, literally, to survive. Repeated tens of thousands of times in the child's life, these small moments of mutual rapport serve to transmit the best part of our humanity--our capacity for love--from one generation to the next.
For many therapists, what Siegel has done is to show just how, from the moment we're born, our most important relationships fire into being the neural circuits of the brain that allow us to understand and empathize with others and feel their feelings. But beyond that, he's gone on to link his interest in both science and the nuance of relationship with the almost unfathomable complexities of neuroscience to generate a field he calls "interpersonal neurobiology," which has brought the latest findings of brain science directly into the therapist's consulting room. As much as any figure in the mental health field, he's taken on, as both a professional challenge and a personal quest, the task of showing his clinician colleagues how the objective, physical matter of the brain--its lobes, modules, folds, lumps, tubes, and fibers--creates the possibilities for the subjective life of the mind, heart, soul, and spirit that is the glory of our species.
While still only 47 and not a formal brain researcher himself--certainly not the originator of the massive, accumulating body of theory regarding the processes of human attachment-- Siegel has displayed a unique ability as a synthesizer, weaving together strands of knowledge from a variety of fields. Through his highly influential book and hundreds of workshop presentations he's given around the globe in recent years, he's tried to bridge the previously disconnected worlds of neuroscience research and clinical practice. "Dan is the right person at the right time," says Pat Love, a noted couples therapist and workshop presenter who's devoted the past several years to integrating neuroscience into her own clinical work. …

Funding via BRAC Uganda
To help expand his business, Johnson has requested a loan of 2500,000 Ugandan Shillings from BRAC Uganda to buy more plastic buckets, plates, etc. to resell. This will help Johnson generate greater profits and pay school fees for his children. In the future he hopes to open up a wholesale shop.
Johnson is a member of BRAC's Small Enterprise Program (SEP). The program primarily serves small entrepreneurs like Johnson who do not have enough collateral for commercial loans, but have businesses that have grown too large for micro loans.
Success!! The loan was 100% repaid
