Brazilian Beauty Woden first began performing treatments in September 2011. The Woden beauty salon was the first in the Australian Capital Territory, so obviously expected some difficulty making a marketing impact. However, the people of Woden and greater Canberra quickly discovered that they had a Brazilian Beauty salon in their midst, and the Woden salon quickly became very popular. Anna, Coordinator of the Woden beauty salon, believes that a dedication to perfection is the key to their success, "It's part of our workplace culture that we constantly reassess. Our entire team meets once every week, and we examine any issues that have arose in the days previously. We look at new treatment methods, new applications for products, and develop our understanding of procedures and product ingredients." Brazilian Beauty Woden intends on making its mark on the beauty salon world in Canberra. Anna says "We hope that one day there will be more then one Brazilian Beauty salon in Canberra. Our aim is to become the absolute epitome of excellence in beauty treatments. I believe that our therapists, using our procedures and methods, are fully capable of that. We have an amazing team here, and I'm yet to see an unsatisfied client leave our salon." Brazilian Beauty Woden is a strong supporter of community initiatives, and regularly donates to those seeking to make a change for the better. Regular recipients of donations from the Woden beauty salon include Beyond Blue, the Kids With Cancer Foundation, and the Canberra Institute of Technology (CIT).
Brazilian Beauty provides an extremely high level of client care to all of our customers. We have implemented procedures to ensure that no client leaves the salon unsatisfied.

LOS ANGELES - As the Memorial Day weekend kicks off the summer driving season, supply shortages blamed for the biggest, fastest gasoline price spike in U.S. history are in retreat.
Prices are falling nationwide in a trend that is expected to continue for several weeks as fire-damaged refineries in California return to normal operation and world markets work through a glut of crude oil.
Yet, for motorists and some public officials, a big question remains. Were drivers gouged by the oil companies when prices shot up so high and so fast during March and early April?
The Federal Trade Commission and the California attorney general are trying to answer that question with separate investigations of gasoline prices in California, the nation's most populous state.
The investigations focus on a price spiral that sent U.S. retail gasoline prices up 23 cents per gallon on average between March 5 and April 9. In California, the increase was even sharper: a 45-cent climb to $1.60, according to the Lundberg Letter, a newsletter that analyzes oil and gasoline markets. The full-service price for premium rose to nearly $2 in some parts of Northern California.
Nationally, the jump was faster and steeper than any other, including price increases that followed Iraq's invasion of Kuwait in 1990 and the Arab oil embargo in 1974, said Trilby Lundberg, publisher of the Lundberg Survey, a bimonthly review of gasoline prices. But it followed more than a year of historically low prices resulting from weak demand and an oversupply of crude.
"The industry has not insisted on making a handsome profit at the retail level," said Lundberg. "They are crazed price cutters."
What bothers investigators is that as retail prices rose, California refineries gross revenues - which include operating costs that can fluctuate widely - rose on average from 27 cents per gallon of gasoline to 70 cents per gallon, according to California Energy Commission figures.
"So far there hasn't been an adequate explanation from the oil industry as to the causes of the price spike," said California Attorney General Bill Lockyer.
A spokeswoman for the FTC said she could not comment on the direction of the probe or any preliminary findings.
In his investigation, Lockyer is not looking for criminal wrongdoing, but indications that the oil companies engaged in unfair business practices by boosting prices higher than their costs justified. If there is evidence of that, his office would consider filing a lawsuit seeking to force the companies to forfeit profits considered excessive.
Similar probes that have followed big price runups have failed to produce evidence of collusion or unfair pricing. Oil company officials contend that it is the market, not companies, that determines the price consumers pay at the pump.
"The marketplace is going to move up and move down. When you balance it all out it's still a tough business: low margins, very competitive," said Fred Gorrell, a spokesman for San Francisco-based Chevron Corp.
"What refiners do is look at supply and demand and competition and we take the marketplace as we find it," he said.
What oil companies found during March and April was a marketplace shaken by a remarkable chain of unrelated events.
In a matter of weeks:
Fires and transmission glitches caused four California refineries to curtail gasoline operation from Feb. 23 to March 23, leading to a 10 percent drop in overall production.
Five days later U.S. warplanes damaged a key Iraqi pumping station, raising fears of a drop in crude oil supplies.
Two weeks after that, in an unusual display of resolve, OPEC members voted to cut production by 2.1 billion barrels per day.
California refineries were in middle of their annual switch from winter gasoline blends to smog-reducing summer formulas. Refinery output typically drops during the changeover.
Finally, in both California and the rest of the nation, demand was rising with the approach of warmer spring weather.
Refinery margins grew during the price runup because companies' costs were up, said Gorrell.
To make up for lost production at damaged refineries, companies had to either import gasoline by ship from the Gulf Coast region or find gasoline at other California refineries that wasn't already under contract to another buyer. Prices in this so-called spot market actually rose higher than the general gasoline market, he said. By April 6, the wholesale price of gasoline on the spot market price reached $1.15 per gallon.
That didn't include 66.3 cents in state, federal and local taxes added to each gallon of gas sold in California.
When prices began to rise, oil companies, wholesalers and speculators began to bid prices up even higher in a race to buy anything available on the spot market. The result was a steep price spiral that left motorists holding the bill. Joined by dealers who were pinched by rising wholesale prices, consumers complained that oil companies were using the refinery problems and OPEC cutbacks as an opportunity for profiteering.
"We had two very visible refinery fires that made good television," said Rob Schlichting, a spokesman for the state energy commission. But, he added, "The damage was never as big as it appeared."
Others believe the price increase was justified given the pressures placed on the oil companies. Before the increase, prices remained at historically low levels for more than a year. The consequences included layoffs and mergers as big oil companies sought to cut costs.
"The price is still a bargain. We are not being badly treated," said Phil Berman, author of the Pump Price Report newsletter. "Gasoline was underpriced before. Now prices are beginning to fall again. There's no sinister conspiracy here."

I am still saddened by the news that respected journalist and professor Freda McVay passed away yesterday. Her memorial service will be held Saturday at 2:00 at the Unitarian Church on 42nd and Boston.
I first met Freda in 2004 during her campaign for State House District 84. This was when I was just getting involved in Lubbock politics, and I looked up to Freda as a fine example of a West Texas Democrat. She was without fear in her advocacy (and her in editing!).

A group of enterprising citizens in Lubbock have taken it upon themselves to win our city a dog park!
PetSafe is running a contest where the city with the most votes wins $100,000 to build a dog park. This can be done with no tax payer dollars spent, as long as the community supports the effort.
The Lubbockites behind this effort have done a great job so far! They have:

Super PACs are lining up to throw hundreds of millions of dollars in deceptive political ads into the mix of the 2012 elections. Karl Rove's American Crossroads has just launched a $25 million ad buy attacking the President on tax cuts (he has cut taxes 18 times), health care (major success), cutting the deficit ($1 trillion in cuts and counting), and helping out home owners (over 5 million served). The intent of the ads is to get down in the mud and campaign in a dishonorable way that the 2008 McCain campaign wouldn't do; basically they are trying to swiftboat President Obama.

The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) is one of the most influential and evil groups that you probably have never heard of (hipster politics?). Their main purpose is to bring lawmakers and big business together to draft model legislation, which is then introduced in all the members' home states.

Jury trials are disappearing in the State of Texas.
So-called "tort reform" is killing the people's right to a trial of their peers. Caps on penalties, increasing court costs, and skyrocketing usage of binding mandatory arbitration are taking cases out of the hands of juries and into the hands of judges and arbitrators.

The Supreme Court has done it again. In yet another 5-4 ruling, this activist, conservative court has chipped away at the 4th Amendment once more.
American citizens can now be strip-searched for "any offense, however minor, before admitting them to jails even if the officials have no reason to suspect the presence of contraband." Once again the liberal Justices are standing up for our civil liberties while the conservative Justices inch us closer to authoritarianism.

In solidarity with today's Cesar Chavez march, let's meditate on the words of the civil rights hero.
I have selected three Cesar Chavez quotes which I find worth reflecting on:
When we are really honest with ourselves we must admit our lives are all that really belong to us. So it is how we use our lives that determines the kind of men we are.

Livni, Barak Aides: 'Good Progress' in Coalition Talks
Barak: The Labor Party will make every effort to form a stable government, capable of realizing goals.
Kadima leader and Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni met with Labor Chairman and Defense Minister Ehud Barak at her office in Jerusalem for a second time on Wednesday if efforts to negotiate Labor's participation in a new government under Livni's leadership.
Associates of both Barak and Livni reported "good progress" in their efforts to achieve an agreement.
The Labor Party was set to convene on Thursday to discuss the details of the meeting.
Barak has insisted that he welcomes general elections, which would be held if Livni fails to recruit a majority of 61 MKs to join her coalition. However, it appeared Tuesday that he was willing to negotiate joining Livni's government.
During a Rosh Hashanah event at the Labor Party headquarters in Tel Aviv, senior party officials all spoke in favor of joining the coalition, given it was a stable, long term one.
Barak said the Labor Party would make every effort to help form a stable government, capable of realizing its goals. He added that should they succeed in reaching a true partnership, he would be more than willing to take part in the coalition, but if such cooperation is not possible, he is not afraid of elections.
Barak repeated Labor's demand that the Supreme Court be granted autonomy as a condition for the party's participation in the government. Labor officials responded to Livni's objection to open coalition agreements saying it's unreasonable that agreements signed three years ago between Olmert and Amir Peretz serve as a basis for a new government.
Meanwhile, Shas Chairman and Trade Minister Eli Yishai announced Wednesday that he had appointed a negotiations team to conduct coalition talks with Livni and her Kadima Party. Its members were instructed not to compromise on the issue of allowances for poor children.

My son bought a used bike yesterday and told me that it's great, but the front wheel is kinda rough.
So I open up the hub, the bearings are near greaseless and the cones are pitted to death, but the cups are surprisingly fine.
Here's my issue. In cleaning the inside of the hub, I notice that the edges of the hub shaft (I don't know what it's officially called, the hole in the center of the hub in which the axle sits) are sharp and slightly protruding (by maybe 1 to 1.5mm) into the area in which the bearings sit, on both sides. I'm not sure if these protrusions are actually coming into contact with the bearings, it seems to me that the bearing might actually be going around them without touching.
I just wanted to know if anyone has had any experience with what I'm describing, and if so, can the wheel be saved (filing down the protrusions?), before I waste my time going to the bike shop to buy some cones and bearings, put it all together and then find out the hub is no good.
It would be a shame to have to toss the wheel, because it was built very well and the rim still has a lot of life left in it.
As always, your input is appreciated.

We enjoyed the range and mix of exhibitors and the opportunities it gave us to network. The attendees came from a wide range of sectors and the stand was always busy. This was a good event and had a very upbeat atmosphere.
An excellent mix of exhibitors and attendees meant that we were able to promote our brand to a good cross section of the industry participants and network effectively.
Good quality venue, easy to get to and attendees weren't so worried about getting travel connections. All round a better venue and this reflected in the mood of exhibitors and attendees alike.
Number and quality of attendees and quality for the programme means this is an excellent opportunity to meet potential clients.
As well as being a thoroughly enjoyable event to attend, my colleagues and I were able to make some very good connections through the various networking events held both by fellow exhibitors and the organisers.
Good quality event, well organised and attended by almost everyone active in the sector.
High quality accessible event, with a good mix of renewable activity covered, and it is free. Good networking event.
I got two commercial contracts from my first visit.
I also got very good feedback from other potential clients which I think was due to the focused client/consultant collaboration environment that the All-Energy Exhibition creates. People were receptive to my approaches because that was what the event was about.
I am relatively new to the industry and the All-Energy event provides an opportunity to interact with those that have more experience in the industry and learn from discussion/ presentation groups.
I was really surprised at how many different solutions were available to me. Have asked for feasibility studies from a couple of wind turbine companies.
As focus on sustainable renewable energy gains momentum, there could be opportunities for my organisation.
The All-Energy show enabled businesses of all types and sizes to engage and display their products. I was able to contact many new clients, central-based and south of Glasgow, opening up my product range to a new audience.

Perhaps you've heard that the color Emerald was announced in December by Pantone as the Color of the Year for 2013 and it has taken the fashion and interior design world by storm. Green has been lingering in the shadows for a while and this year is its turn in the limelight with vivid emerald at the forefront.
Emerald is a rich, bold jewel tone that is beautiful as an accent nestled among neutrals and also as a complement to other jewel tones. All shades of green are reminiscent of nature and harmony, so I rounded up a few ideas for using green in your home in large and small doses.
Softer shades of green like celadon and sage are always soothing. In this coastal inspired kitchen, sea green is used on both the backsplash and kitchen island to create an inviting cottage feel.
A deeper shade of olive brings sophistication to a kitchen finished in a glass brick pattern backsplash, playing off the foliage seen observed outside the window.
In the bedroom, a punch of shamrock green is introduced with tailored upholstered headboards and bed skirts, while fern green duvet and shams brightens an otherwise neutral space below.
Paint is an easy way to bring a dose of green into your home – a fresh lime green painted dresser will perk up any bedroom.
Consider painting mismatched chairs in a distressed apple green finish for a French farmhouse inspired dining space.
Mint is another color that showing signs of popularity this spring among the design community and it's a perfect choice for vintage style chairs layered on a fun striped rug.
For an unexpected twist on a traditional hallway, paint your gallery of frames a vivid Kelly green and finish off the staircase with a painted runner to match.
Chartreuse is a sunny shade with the obvious presence of yellow in the mix and looks fresh in a white bathroom paired with a colorful shower curtain to complement.
Whether it's tile, paint, textiles, or accessories you choose, incorporating shades of green into your home's decor is sure to brighten and invigorate any space.
What is your favorite shade of green and how have you used it in your home?

First Penguins of the Season Hatch on Thanksgiving Day at Moody Gardens
December 03, 2012
The staff of Moody Gardens in Texas had two new reasons to be thankful with the hatching of two Gentoo Penguin chicks during Thanksgiving weekend. Their parents, like all the Penguins in the collection, are identified by number-to-document statistics. Technically 404 and 415, the parents go by the names Stimpy and Porky. They've had chicks in the past but these two are the first of the season.
"We discovered the new chick at approximately 9:00 a.m. on Thanksgiving day," said Moody Gardens biologist Hector Morale. "As we were changing light bulbs and cleaning inside the exhibit, the parents stood up and we found the chick tucked beneath them in the nest." The next day, staff noticed the second egg.
Photo Credit: Moody Gardens
The Penguins currently weigh in at 165 and 344 grams. Tests will be taken at a later date to determine their gender. Penguin chicks grow fast and will become full-grown in just eight weeks. The new chicks will be named in a Moody Gardens' Facebook fan page contest launched yesterday. Click that link if you'd like to particiapte. In the mean time, you can watch the penguins on the Live Penguin Cam, if you aren't able to visit in person.

The number of foreign tourists who visited Japan last year plunged 18.7 percent to 6.79 million, the first fall in six years, due to the global recession and the spread of swine flu, the Japan National Tourism Organization said Monday.
It was the first double-digit decline since 1986, when the yen spiked against the dollar after five major industrial nations agreed in 1985 to let the U.S. currency depreciate in the so-called Plaza Accord to reduce U.S. trade deficits.
The government earlier set a goal of attracting 10 million foreign visitors this year, but the latest statistics suggest that target will be hard to reach.

Many people give her their business since she always sells a variety of cookies at very good prices.
She decided to apply for this loan at Integral to invest in the purchase of basic ingredients (flour, sugar, eggs, food coloring, popsicle sticks, etc.) to continue making the delicious cookies. She does all this with the goal of meeting a greater demand which allows her to increase her level of sales and income and thus be able to improve her quality of life and that of her family.

An unexpected rise in Washington's unemployment rate last month lays extra weight on a key question in this year's gubernatorial race: What should the next governor do to get people back to work?
An unexpected rise in Washington's unemployment rate last month lays extra weight on a key question in this year's gubernatorial race: What can the next governor do to get people back to work?
Even before news that the state jobless rate ticked up to 8.6 percent in August, Democrat Jay Inslee and Republican Rob McKenna were dueling over state government's role in lifting the economy.
Their competing jobs plans offer one of the clearest philosophical contrasts of the campaign.
- Designed in Seattle, this $1 cup could save millions of babies
- Trump, Clinton win Washington state primary
- Reed brother led detectives to bodies believed to be Arlington couple
- Boeing plans hundreds of layoffs in local IT unit
- Your vote counts so little in Tuesday's primary election, John Oliver joked about it on 'Last Week Tonight'
Most Read Stories
Inslee, the former congressman, takes an activist view, saying state government should focus on chosen industries of the future. He'd create a new state economic agency and offer tax breaks and other aid to favored sectors, including clean energy, aerospace, biotech and maritime companies.
McKenna, the two-term state attorney general, dismisses the notion state government can do much to create private-sector jobs — beyond getting out of the way. He'd pare back burdensome or duplicative regulations, simplify sales-tax collections and possibly offer a tax cut for small businesses.
Naturally, the rivals have unkind words for one another's ideas. Inslee calls McKenna's approach a bunch of generic Republican talking points; McKenna says Inslee has offered a government-knows-best scheme of picking winners and losers.
August's unemployment rate rose slightly from 8.5 percent in July; it was down from 9.9 percent in 2010, according to the state Employment Security Department. Washington's August rate ranked 15th-worst among the 50 states.
A governor's ability to reduce the jobless rate is limited. The economy generally rises or falls with national trends.
"A lot of the stuff you can't control. You can tweak it around the edges," said John Mitchell, an Oregon-based consultant and former chief economist for U.S. Bank. "There is no silver bullet when you think about states. If there was, everyone would copy it."
But the state of the economy will have big implications for the next governor, as weak growth would obstruct campaign promises by Inslee and McKenna to find more money for education or other priorities.
The Inslee plan
Inslee has made job creation the central theme of his campaign. The issue is prominent on his website and in campaign ads in which he sits astride a bulldozer — a reference to a job he had in college.
He says he'd harness the talents of Washington state by focusing on key sectors and industries the state is "uniquely poised to lead."
Inslee's jobs plan, distributed in glossy folders at campaign events, sketches dozens of ways he'd try to grow seven selected "industry clusters" — clean energy, aerospace, life sciences, agriculture, information technology, military and maritime.
The state has limited resources, Inslee says, so it makes sense to target certain sectors. "It's not some sort of butter we are going to spread across the state," he said.
That approach is not radical or new. Inslee acknowledged his "industry cluster" focus borrows in part from the regional economic-development blueprint adopted by the Prosperity Partnership, a coalition of major Puget Sound business, labor and government groups.
Inslee's ideas include new government offices and advisers who'd work to grow the industries of the future.
He'd create an Economic Competitiveness and Development office — a small agency led by a new Cabinet-level director — by transferring positions and responsibilities out of the state's existing Department of Commerce.
Inslee would also create an Advanced Sustainable Biofuels Center of Excellence affiliated with Washington State University to push advances in clean fuels, and a Washington Center for Marine Innovation to buttress shipbuilding and other maritime work.
Although he has spent part of his campaign criticizing the hundreds of special tax breaks on the books for various industries, Inslee's jobs plan would add a few to that list.
He's proposing three years of tax breaks for clean-energy, biotech and computer startups. He'd also extend existing tax breaks for renewable-energy development and companies investing in manufacturing and research.
And Inslee wants a business-and-occupation (B&O) tax credit for small businesses that hire people, with the credit scaling up depending on the workers' wages. The credit would be capped at $4,000 per hire and at $8 million for the state.
He says his tax breaks would be narrowly tailored and reviewed for effectiveness.
McKenna mocks Inslee's jobs plan as a bureaucratic boondoggle.
"In meeting with hundreds of business owners and leaders, not one of them said to me, 'You know Rob, what we really need to support job creation and make it easier to run our companies is a new state agency,' " McKenna said. "This is the top-down, government-centric approach that the public hates and that business owners really hate."
But Inslee defended his approach, arguing Washington is competing with other states — and even other nations — to nurture the industries of the future.
The McKenna plan
McKenna says his own approach to reducing unemployment relies on the private sector and has been informed by his chats with hundreds of small-business owners across the state. "Government doesn't grow the economy," he said.
Washington's jobless problem is even more dire, McKenna notes, when you factor in people who can't find full-time work or who have given up looking. By that measure, the state's unemployment or underemployment rate has been hovering around 17 percent, according to the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics.
McKenna's jobs plan, which reads much shorter than Inslee's, contains no new agencies or new advisers in the governor's office — although McKenna frequently says he'll bring in people with private-sector experience to run state agencies.
His plan calls for a top-to-bottom review of state regulations he argues are making it harder to run a business.
"Unlike the spending, the regulations never seem to undergo any kind of review. They just pile more and more on," he said. "In fact if you think about the incentives for government regulators, the incentives work in favor of more government regulation, because that's job security."
A state performance audit released this month concluded several state agencies do regularly review and streamline business rules, as required by executive orders from Gov. Chris Gregoire and her predecessors.
However, the report said the agencies were not formally measuring the results of their streamlining to see whether it had the intended effects.
McKenna also is proposing a possible B&O tax break for small businesses. If fully implemented the tax credit would exempt about 118,000 small businesses from the B&O tax at a cost of more than $250 million a year to the state.
However, McKenna has indicated he'll proceed cautiously with such a plan, since it could interfere with his chief campaign pledge of finding billions of dollars in additional state money for public schools and universities. He said the tax relief could start small and be phased in over time.
McKenna also proposes simplifying the way state sales taxes are collected, arguing a rules change by the state a few years ago added too much complexity for businesses.
And McKenna wants to introduce private competition into the state's workers' compensation system, noting Washington remains one of just four states with a government monopoly on industrial insurance. Voters rejected that idea in 2010, defeating a business-sponsored ballot initiative. But McKenna said it's worth another look.
Inslee derides McKenna's jobs strategy as a generic Republican platform that doesn't play to Washington's strengths.
"You don't exactly read his plan and say 'Gee that's a new idea, that's a fresh thought.' I'll offer a reward for anybody who can find a fresh thought in my opponent's plan," Inslee said.
Despite their differences, the rivals have some areas of broad agreement on ways to bolster job growth.
Though they disagree on details, both Inslee and McKenna say they'd work on ways to reduce health-care costs to employers. And both say the state must reshape universities to produce college graduates in science and math fields in demand by high-tech employers.
And neither is proposing a stimulus program or government-hiring spree to counter public-sector job losses.
There are 15,000 fewer public-sector jobs in the state than there were in 2008. Last year, government shed 5,000 jobs, the most of any sector.

The school my daughter will be attending requires school uniforms starting in kindergarten. This coming year she will be in 3K so she will be wearing regular clothes. However, I'm hoping that in future years I'll be able to save money by having her in a uniform vs. having to buy school clothes.
When I was growing up my sister and I had a few shirts, sweatshirts and jeans for the weekend, a few dresses for church, and that was it. During the week we wore our uniforms and took good care of them. 2 skirts, 2 sweaters and 5-6 collared shirts for the school year. I know my mom saved a lot of money that way, especially since having a uniform elimited some of the nonsense that goes along with girls wanting certain brands, etc. (Though shoes were still an issue).
Please share your experiences. Thanks!

Men accused of causing $6,600 in damage during copper theftMarch 02,2013NEWFANE — Two men are accused of causing more than $6,000 in damage to a Vermont Electric Power Company substation in September while stealing about $740 in copper wire, according to Trooper Jeff Hudson of the Vermont State Police.
Russell A. Buzby, 46, of Newfane, and James D. Nestor Jr., 45, of Bennington, are scheduled to be arraigned in Windham criminal court on March 26 on charges of grand larceny, unlawful trespass and unlawful mischief, Hudson said in a press release.
On Sept. 20, the Vermont State Police were notified of a copper wire theft from the VELCO substation in Newfane on Route 30.
After an investigation, aided by surveillance video from the substation, police determined that Nestor and Buzby stole several hundred pounds of copper ground wire from the VELCO substation around 8 p.m. Sept. 16, causing damage in the process.
Upon questioning, both Buzby and Nestor admitted to the theft, Hudson said.
The stolen copper was sold to a scrap yard for about $736.

Regular readers know that Double Coverage gives Bowling Green their props whenever we can, but after watching Kent State's Dri Archer treat the Falcons the way the National Guard treats Kent State it's only fair to give credit where credit is due. Archer's two long TD runs provided the difference in the Golden Flash's division clinching victory at Bowling Green last Saturday, and you can see them both here: The first one...ok, you can't coach speed. Archer's the fastest kid on the field and takes off like he got shot out of a rocket. That's excusable. But that second one??? Come on, fellas. No less than ten people had an opportunity to tackle Archer and he waltzed into the end zone to score the game-winning TD like he was playing against air. Forget Braxton Miller's Heisman hopes...I don't even think he's the best player in Ohio after watching this one. (Photo: KentStateSports.com)

Vancouver — Vancouver Iron & Steel Inc. will pay a $4,693 fine to the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality for failing to conduct all required stormwater discharge monitoring at its foundry at 866 N. Columbia Boulevard in North Portland, the DEQ said Monday.
The company has a DEQ-issued permit which allows it to discharge stormwater from activities on its foundry site to the Columbia Slough, within strict limits. The permit requires it to monitor its stormwater through the regular taking of samples and to conduct monthly visual monitoring of stormwater discharge. Vancouver Iron & Steel failed to conduct visual monitoring for six months between November 2010 and May 2011, according to the DEQ.
Vancouver Iron & Steel Inc. had appealed the penalty shortly after DEQ issued it in November 2011. After meeting with DEQ to further discuss the violations, the company signed a settlement agreement requiring it to pay a total fine of $4,693, according to the DEQ.

If you have ever wanted to know how crickets or grubs taste the Hokitika Wildfood Festival is the event for you to attend. In 2007 it took place on Saturday, 10 March.
The Wildfood Festival is not as crazy as it has already been, with goat testicles and similar unpalatable delicacies being taken from the menu of the nearly 80 food stalls, and instead offering venison, whitebait and octopus. The organisers had found out that the fear factor lately had rather deterred than attracted visitors. They also wanted to get a more mature audience by offering more appealing food and not selling alcoholic shooters anymore which attract teenagers and early twens.
But still there are many uncommon foods on offer, for example lambs' tails and cheeks, and the all-time bestsellers fried and roasted crickets and huhu - the latter are huge grubs and, apart from worms, the favourite food of the kiwis, and I speak of the kiwi birds... ;-)
And horror, horror: Pigs Eye set in Macaroni Cheese!
As the theme this year is France there are snails in garlic on offer. Not so sure about frog legs as the way to harvest them is animal torture and should not be supported.
Expect to meet 12,000 to 15,000 people, so getting last-minute accommodation is impossible. There are bus tours from several cities, including Christchurch, for example with:
Tel. (03) 342 6450
Return fare incl. admission from $120.
Ticket prices are $30 on the day and $25 if bought in advance (you can purchase online and pick them up at the Hokitika i-site), children from 5 to 18 years pay $5.

WASHINGTON (AP) _ Former President Jimmy Carter says the U.S. violates international law by torturing prisoners, and that President Bush makes up his own definition of torture.
The Georgia native said in an interview on CNN yesterday that the country has taken the position that the Geneva Conventions do not apply to people in Abu Ghraib prison and Guantanamo. He says the U.S. has ``said we can torture prisoners.''
Bush responded to an October 4th report by The New York Times on secret Justice Department memorandums supporting ``harsh interrogation techniques'' by proclaiming: ``This government does not torture people.''
Carter says the interrogation methods cited by the Times, including ``head-slapping, simulated drowning and frigid temperatures,'' constitute torture under international norms.
But he said the White House makes its own definition of torture and then claims the standards are not being violated.
CNN said a senior White House official responded to Carter's remarks by saying, ``Our position is clear. We don't torture.''

How to create a Random Featured Product list on home page in Magento
[stextbox id="custom" color="ffffff" bcolor="ffffff'" bgcolor="000000″ image="null" float="true" width="600″]
It seems some what amazing that such a simple request can be so tricky to track down. The scenario is simple. You want to display a set of products on your home page from a hidden category to be randomly displayed.
If you want to show products from a specific category on your home page you can do this simply with
{{block type="catalog/product_list" category_id="12" template="catalog/product/list.phtml"}}
on your home page which works fine.. however, if you want these products to be randomly selected you hit problems.
The obvious thing to try is
{{block type="catalog/product_list_random" category_id="12" template="catalog/product/list.phtml"}}
however, this displays random products from EVERY category!!
The reason for this is that the file random.php does not work as advertised so we need to create a new version that does. We do not want to break upgrade compatibility so create the following directory structure.
in app/code/local create Mage/Catalog/Block/Product/List
eg mkdir -p Mage/Catalog/Block/Product/List
In your new List directory create the following file called Random.php
<?php class Mage_Catalog_Block_Product_List_Random extends Mage_Catalog_Block_Product_List { protected function _getProductCollection() { if (is_null($this->_productCollection)) { $categoryID = $this->getCategoryId(); if($categoryID) { $category = new Mage_Catalog_Model_Category(); $category->load($categoryID); // this is category id $collection = $category->getProductCollection(); } else { $collection = Mage::getResourceModel('catalog/product_collection'); } Mage::getModel('catalog/layer')->prepareProductCollection($collection); $collection->getSelect()->order('rand()'); $collection->addStoreFilter(); $numProducts = $this->getNumProducts() ? $this->getNumProducts() : 3; $collection->setPage(1, $numProducts)->load(); $this->_productCollection = $collection; } return $this->_productCollection; } }
To call this on your home page open your Home page in CMS > Static Pages
and in Content add
{{block type="catalog/product_list_random" category_id="YOUR_CATEGORY_ID" template="catalog/product/list.phtml" column_count="4" num_products="12"}}
Create a new hidden category and add the products you wish to randomly select from. Find the category ID of this category and enter this number in the above place marker.
You will find that although you are seeing the Category display tool bar (drid view / list view / show.. etc) it has no effect on the layout. the default layout is 3 x 3 grid which is where column_count="4″ comes into play. Alter this to meet your themes needs. Same goes for num_products="12″.
And that is that.
Don't want to be looking at the grid.. hide it. (evil hack alert)
<style type="text/css"> .toolbar {display:none;} </style>
at the top of your Content area on the homepage CMS. this will hide the tool bar for just the homepage.

- for fun and profit, might even get a t-shirt (definitely no donuts and coffee)
- just to see what that like
- for the rush
- for affection from the opposite sex or same, depends on which way you go
- for stupidity from a dare
do we really need a reason? stand on earth you compete against gravity. in space, you compete against vacuum and solar radiation. life is a competition against death. of course, death always win, unless you are zombie. which remind me, what aikido techniques counter zombies, since there seemed to be lots of movie about zombies of late.
Thanks for the list Phi! But do they really add up to the intention to compete?
Clearly you are speaking about a competitive event in the first couple of examples, in which you mention things you could experience just by forfeiting immediately after the competition begins. You're not really competing by definition of the word in any of these, you are only there to get something other than winning or as a result of winning. When your motivation to get those things you listed makes you need to win first, then the motivation in entering the competition still comes down to proving to yourself and/or others that you can outperform the opponent (even if just for a t-shirt). Maybe you're competing to see what it's like or for the rush, but you would not have either of those experiences if you didn't enter it with the idea of winning or losing.
I don't see any of the things you listed as natural competition. Gravity is a natural force so gravity can not "lose." You don't compete with it, you use it to move around the world and it is not trying to immobilize you. You don't compete with "death" you move in accordance with life. If you go to space you will need to take precautions that would insure your resistance against forces in nature that will destroy your body, but deep space isn't out to "win." You would only be competing with yourself to come up with the best way to not fall victim to the forces of nature that just

We're GF, but not celiac. The seafood enchiladas were really, really good. I got the hamburger with GF bun. The hamburger was ok (not awesome) but the GF bun was awful. Utter sawdust.
great gf pizza. Lots of options.
our waitress was lovely and so helpful! it's refreshing to have someone that actually even knows what gluten is sometimes. menu was clearly marked GF but they also had some things makes GM and could change just 1 ingredient to make it GF. My son and I both ate with confidence that we would be safe!
A large amount of GF and GM (modified) options. The labels are right on the menu - no special GF menu needed. They have regular entrees, pizza and sandwiches. My daughter was able to get a beautiful piece of salmon ( she said it was a little overlooked, but still tasty). The wait staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. We will be back.
Fantastic! We will be back. Had the Jerk Mahi and it was fantastic! GF options abound!
Tons of options, and staff was super helpful in ensuring everything was safe and prepared properly, including fries in the dedicated frier! I got a sandwich on a gf bun, and the only reason this isn't a 5 star review is because the bun was the driest gf thing I'd ever eaten. Otherwise, great experience, just skip the bun!
Amazing restaurant. I have 7 food allergies including gluten (CD), tomatoes, broccoli, peas, almonds, pork and avocados. I also have IBS so salads are out. I ate here 2 times. Both times I had jerk shrimp and mahi. Since I have so many allergies the owner came and talked to me. The menu is clearly marked with GF and GM (modified to be GF). I think this was the biggest GF menu oUT of all the places I have eaten at.
The menu is marked with "gluten modified" for non-celiacs and "gluten free" that is celiac safe. Per Nicki our waitress (who has celiac disease) they take celiac disease and food allergies very seriously and are very careful. They have a new dedicated fryer that is celiac safe. Reasonably priced.
Awesome place and not overly pricey. We went for lunch yesterday and it was so good and GF friendly that we went back that same day in the evening for pizza. Would highly recommend it!!!
#1 most important thing (for me anyhow) was VERY knowledgeable waiter. Didn't have to ask many questions, he was honest and pointed out that their GM (gluten modified) meals still ran the risk of cross contamination because of a shared fryer, vs their GF (gluten free) foods. So, no fries here, but I had their steak and cheese sandwich on gf bun and it was good. Will absolutely be back. One of the cheaper places we've eaten on vacation so far.
AWESOME selection of GF foods. My husband and I both ordered seafood dishes that were mouthwatering!! We saw that they offered GF buns with the hot dog meal and since we can't get the buns where we live, we decided to order 3 meals of it for ourselves and our son. When our meal arrived, the waiter apologized and said they had ran out of the hot dog buns so the hotdogs came inside a GF hamburger bun that had been sliced in half. We didn't want to make a stink about it due to a really sweet waiter. Halfway into our meal the manager came over to our table and apologized for the cook not having ordered GF hotdog buns. She gave knocked the price of the hotdog meals off the total. Long story short.....if you are visiting Kitty Hawk....eat at Barefoot Bernie's!!!! Delicious food...superb service!!!
Good food! my husband had the barbq chicken and I had the jerk red snapper and crab. we got the jerk Mahi Mahi tacos as an appetizer (off the 520 cal and under menu) and those were pretty good, too.
The food is worth the wait. Lots of options and excellent ones at that, and the staff knows their stuff when it comes to gluten-free.
Amazing food, great prices ( most menu items are under $10), nice atmosphere and best of all they have a ton of GF listed items and many more that can be with slight modification. I recommend the spinach artichoke dip!
Love this place! Lots of GF options including pizzas and burgers. The Hawaiian pizza with white sauce was good. Comes in a 10in thin crust. I've also had their burgers and they use three fellas bakery bread.
This place boasts gluten free options and gluten free bread if you want to try a sandwich or burger. The food was decent for the most part. And there are a reasonable amount of meals to choose from if you're gluten intolerant.
Terrible! DEFINITELY NOT CELIAC FRIENDLY!!! I asked the waiter about gluten free specials , told him why, then settled on the pizza. It was delivered by a waitress whom I asked, "Is this the Gluten free pizza?" She replied yes and left. Fortunately, it took me a minute before I ate, since she came back and said it wasn't glutenfree after all. Another 30 minutes later, she brought me the real gluten free pizza. the crust was brown on the bottom, but raw under the toppings. by then I was too hungry to ask for something else, so I ate parts of it and had them take it off our bill. I don't know how to be anymore clear when I order and the food arrives, but I will never go back there again!
GF pizza is amazing! Wish there was a Barefoot Bernies where I live
Loud, crowded, overpriced. Called ahead and still had to wait an hour for a table of 4 around 830. Pizza had a decent flavor but another crappy GF crust- I have toenails thicker than this stuff. The rest of my family was pleased with their very gluten-y dinner. Random Steelers swag everywhere was a nice touch.
Went here while on vacation in the OBX. Very nice GF menu, and homemade GF pizza dough was excellent! Our waitress told us her dad has Celiacs so she was very familiar with the diet. Be sure to ask for the special GF pizza/sandwich list (not all of them can be made GF using a GF crust/roll, but many of them can!). Definitely will be back on our next trip!
Amazing! Lots of options!

Additional Information
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Rutgers focused on Big East title, not Big Ten
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Rutgers has been playing football for more than 140 years. Few games, however, have carried the importance of Saturday's trip to Pittsburgh.
The 21st-ranked Scarlet Knights (9-1, 5-0 Big East) can clinch at least a share of the Big East title if they can beat the Panthers (4-6, 1-4) and can win it outright if they win and No. 19 Louisville loses to Connecticut.
Coach Kyle Flood says the stakes should help his team block out the distraction of the program's move to the Big Ten in 2014. The school announced its intentions this week.
The stakes aren't quite as high for Pitt, though the Panthers say they're focused on winning their final two games to become bowl eligible for a fifth straight season.

Hatcheries Research
Findings and Updates
Prince William Sound Science Center (PWSSC) and its sub-contracting partner Sitka Sound Science Center (SSSC) are engaged in the scientific data collection and analysis services requested under the State of Alaska contract IHP-13-013 entitled "Interactions of Wild and Hatchery Pink and Chum Salmon in Prince William Sound and Southeast Alaska".
The overarching purposes of this research are to: 1) further document the degree to which hatchery pink and chum salmon straying is occurring; 2) assess the range of interannual variability in the straying rates; and, 3) determine the effects of hatchery fish spawning with wild populations on the fitness of wild populations.
This research project has been subdivided into four major activities for implementation, each with a separate project leader: ocean sampling near PWS; stream sampling in PWS; stream sampling in SEAK; and data management, analysis, and reporting.
Written reports
Reports made to ADF&G, as described in the Request for Proposal (RFP), will be posted below. Reports will consist of a complete description of preceding field data methods and the data collected. Reports will include any analyses that can be made with the data available up to that time. Reports will be progressive, i.e., will include all data and analyses from the beginning of the project up to the date of the report. Annual progress will be submitted in December of each year, except that the final report will be submitted in January of 2016, so that it can be reviewed by ADF&G staff and then revised based on their comments prior to the March, 2016 contract end date.

A workshop was held in December 2014 to provide the public and department an overview of the progress made and challenges encountered, so that mid-course adjustments can made if necessary. The agenda and presentations from that workshop are posted here for your information. The interim progress reports for 2013 and 2014 field seasons are still not available due to delays in reading otoliths at the state labs, cleaning up the data, and preliminary analysis of estimates of hatchery proportions in the total return of pink and chum to Prince William Sound and chum salmon to Southeast. Similar estimates for strays at the regional level in the spring of 2015. At that point in time we plan to post the interim progress reports.

Final Results
The long-term research project proposed here has the potential to answer some of the questions most relevant to the Alaska salmon enhancement program. As good stewards of wild salmon stocks and the natural resources of the state, ADF&G believes strongly this work should be undertaken. It recognizes that the results will likely have some ambiguity and may even be interpreted differently by some groups. Nonetheless, this information will likely guide future decisions and will greatly advance the understanding of the ecological and evolutionary dynamics of wild and hatchery interactions.
