Every Saturday morning this summer, Pioneer Park comes alive with local vendors peddling produce, organic meats and—you know my favorite—hand-made beauty products with ingredients you can feel good about.
So here are some fabulous finds I spotted during opening weekend at this year's Farmer's Market:
Lavender Grapefruit Sugar Scrub, $10; The Lavender Apple
A scrub so scrumptious, you might want to take a bite (and you could), this scaley-skin-buster comes fresh from Mike and Peggy Nelson's farm in Cache Valley. Specializing in organically grown lavender and apples (hence the name), the Nelson's take pride in hand-drying the flower for all containing products, and include only natural ingredients.
Soap Sampler, $10; GingerMade Soap
Scent-tastic soaps that are also fair trade, vegan and organic? It's a green girl's dream. And there's plenty to go around; GingerMade's gigantic inventory can be overwhelming, but the six-soap sampler is the perfect first sud of the lather. Plus, you get extra eco-credit for avoiding excess packaging (a huge benefit to buying bar soap). Good on ya!
Healing Lotion Bar, $8; Bee Smooth Skin Care
Made mostly with beeswax from High Mountain Honey (local), this lotion bar slicks up your skin with impermeable moisture. The two gals behind the bar promise a petroleum- and paraben-free product that does wonders for dry skin.
Calendula Oil, $6.95; Millcreek Herbs
Oils, with all their nutrition and moisturizing properties, are one of the most important beauty products you can own. Clinical herbalist (and Catalyst writer) Merry Lycett Harrison highly recommends calendula oil from her line, Millcreek Herbs, as part of your skincare artillery. Harrison says this oil not only smells euphoric, but has a long history of use for soothing the skin. Intended use is for rashes, rough skin, eczema or minor injuries.
So grab your reusable tote bag this Saturday, because at the Farmer's Market, you can not only kill most of your shopping list in terms of food, but also bathroom essentials.

Another Hilarous Winter Meetings
Each time around the major league baseball winter meetings, there seems to be a rather hilarious article "hot off the wire" detailing the "big signing" of the Minnesota Twins in the wake of the really big boys already changing hands. This year didn't fail to disappoint…
First, record-setting closer Francisco "K-Rod" Rodriguez moved from the Angels to the Mets by signing a three-year, $37 million deal. With Billy Wagner rehabbing an injury and perhaps on the downslope of his career anyway, the Mets figured they needed a dominant closer and thus went out and got the best.
Then, just a few days later, C.C. Sabathia moved from the Brewers to the Yankees (who else, really?!) for seven years and $161 million, the largest contract ever for a pitcher. The bad news: He really could stabilize the Yanks' starting rotation. The good news: We (the Twins) may only have to face him 1-2 a season TOPS…hooray!!
Finally, the inevitable "big move" came from the Minnesota Twins, as they announced the signing of "Little" Nick Punto to a two-year, $8.5 million contract. Ooh, the cash is really flowing now! Start printing those World Series tickets…"Little Nicky" is back.
In all honesty, though, Punto was actually a pretty good signing for the small-market Twins, as he is the best defenseman (at any position) in the league and, as long as he can keep his batting average above .260 or so, isn't a huge drag on the lineup with the speed and bunting ability he brings to the table.

Content is cool
Having a resource for us is cool
and it's good for Tim and Adam's self esteem. Tim might make his sig smaller if we get a wiki.

For new bird-watchers, this low-priced, easy-to-use National Geographic field guide features basic bird identification information on 160 top North American species and makes ornithology fun. The birds are beautifully presented, from the lowly Tufted Titmouse and House Wren to the majestic Great Blue Heron and Bald Eagle. Paging through this handy book is like taking a walk with National Geographic's birding experts. Every bird is showcased with carefully chosen illustrations and photographs that capture its key details and typical behavior, paired with a short list of key facts (appearance, range, food, voice) and a fun,readable snapshot of what makes each bird so interesting. Pictures plus facts plus story: a winning combination especially for new bird watchers.
With a small trim size, rounded corners, and colorful illustrations, National Geographic's Pocket Guide to the Birds of North America will be easy on the eyes and easy to stash. A useful color index guides identification; tips throughout show how to observe, track, identify, record, and attract birds in nature.
Featured birds include: American Robin, Bald Eagle, Barn Swallow, Black-capped Chickadee, Blue Jay, Common Grackle, Dark-eyed Junco, Eastern Bluebird, Eastern Phoebe, Great Blue Heron, House Wren, Northern Cardinal, Northern Flicker, Purple Martin, Red-tailed Hawk, Song Sparrow, Tufted Titmouse, Tufted Titmouse, Western Bluebird, White-breasted Nuthatch, and more than 140 additional species.
Laura Erickson is a scientist, teacher, writer, blogger, radio personality, podcaster, public speaker, and photographer, as well as science editor at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and contributing editor to BirdWatching magazine. Erickson has published five bird books and broadcasts the long-running "For the Birds" for Minnesota Public Radio. She lives in Duluth, Minnesota.
Jonathan Alderfer, artist and naturalist, is the resident birding expert at National Geographic. He is author and editor of numerous National Geographic birding books, including co-author of the top-selling Field Guide to the Birds of North America. The author lives in Washington, D.C.
Invitation to Birding
Earth's the right place for love," wrote Robert Frost. Earth is also the right place for birds. Of all the warm-blooded creatures on the planet, there exist roughly twice as many species of birds as mammals. Except for the ocean depths, birds can be found everywhere mammals live and beyond.
People who take up bird-watching as adults are often amazed to discover just how many birds are out there. Most of us will spot no more than a fraction of the almost 10,000 bird species, but the species visiting your own backyard represent a good beginning. Indeed, the easiest place to watch birds is right at home, especially if you have a good assortment of native trees and shrubs, a bird feeder, and a birdbath. A surprising number of birds can even be attracted to an apartment balcony in the city. Start looking, and you will see: Birds are everywhere, a delight to behold, a pleasure to learn to identify.
Why Learn Bird identification?
Recognizing birds may not be necessary to individual survival, but learning about the creatures with which we share this planet, especially our own little corner of it, enhances our daily lives, giving us grace notes of joyful recognition as we travel to new places or look out our own windows, whether the birds we see are comfortably familiar or exciting new discoveries.
Using your senses in new ways enhances your ability to detect birds, and as your awareness grows, your progress accelerates. People with vision or hearing impairments can be excellent birders, locating and identifying birds entirely by either sound or visual cues. Those of us who can use both senses can train our eyes and ears to more easily detect birds with practice. The more birds we see and identify, the simpler it is to find and identify more.
Canada Goose
Branta canadensis L 30–43" (76–109 cm) Canada Geese were, until the 1970s, seen in many places only on migration and in winter.
Key facts:
Large dark goose; black neck; white chin strap; paler below.
Geese are among a handful of birds capable of digesting grass, and so are drawn to expansive lawns. "Honkers" are extremely sociable. Once paired, they usually remain with their mate year -round for life. In winter, they may also maintain social bonds with young from previous seasons. They learn their migratory routes from their parents. When a pair of geese becomes urbanized and remains in a city for the winter, their young often follow suit. Adults undergo a flightless period while molting flight feathers in summer, before their goslings can fly. Goslings can swim and even dive to evade predators within hours of hatching.
Barn Swallow
Hirundo rustica L 63⁄4" (17 cm) Barn Swallows build a large cup nest; Cliff Swallows a globe with an entrance hole.
Key Facts:
Cobalt blue above and buffy below with a chestnut throat. Long, graceful tail of adult is unlike any other North American swallow; juvenile's tail is shorter.
Aristotle may have been thinking of this bird when he said, "One swallow does not a summer make." The most widespread swallow in the world nests under bridges and eaves, and in culverts, barns, and outbuildings. In Minnesota, a pair nested for several years in the lumber section of a home improvement store, hovering in front of the sensor to trigger the door to open so it could pass in and out. New World Barn Swallows once bred only in North America, spending the winter in South America as nonbreeders. In 1980, six pairs nested in Argentina. Now, a South American breeding population is well established.
White -throated Sparrow
Zonotrichia albicollis L 63⁄4" (17 cm) Like avian chipmunks, these stripe-headed sparrows eat seeds on the ground.
Key Facts:
Medium-size sparrow with white throat and bright yellow spot near eye. Two color morphs white -striped and tan -striped describe the color of the stripe above the eye.
This sparrow's clear, whistled Old Sam Peabody, Peabody, Peabody is heard in backyards as well as in northern forests where it breeds. Half of both males and females have white head stripes, the other half tan stripes; each prefers the opposite pattern in a mate, as if blond humans always selected a dark-haired mate and vice versa. About 96 percent of all pairs include one of each color. White-striped birds of both sexes sing and are territorially aggressive. Tan -striped birds of both sexes provide excellent parental care. Though tan-striped males are less aggressive than white-striped, their territories in an area tend to be the same size.

10 issues / year
Jun/Jul 2016
( 3,030)
Maxim, the world's leading men's magazine, gives guys what they want — beautiful women, jokes, sports, entertainment, gadgets, rides and beautiful women. Did we mention beautiful women?
We're all about to be ripped off! I came looking for the next (January 2013) issue and instead found that Maxim isn't listed in Men's Lifestyle, Most Popular, Top 100, or anywhere else. Maxim is obviously pulling out of the Play Store and taking our money with them. I will not be renewing my print subscription and will be looking into getting a refund from Google for my digital subscription. I was a loyal customer for years but I don't appreciate being stolen from.
Maxim Good magazine. I still like tangible. To many distractions. Leisure reading doesn't feel like it with work popping up on device. Separation of the two. Leave it to a tool to rate one star cuz it's not playboy?? Some people are clueless as ever... life isn't that miserable peoples! Maxim doesn't offer nudes so they're 1 star. Brilliantly conspired & played?? Durp durp
Great Love it. Truly a great mag. I love being able to have it on my nexus 7 instead of a paper copy.
Stupid and Sexist Females are in such little clothing, and it makes me very upset whenever I see the pictures. We shouldn't be used as objects for men's satisfaction. There should be a women's version with a similar premise. I'm a girl who opposes such old-fashioned gender standards that should have changed! If you stand up for a better representation of my gender, don't read this.
Average, women? No! Reality? No! Plastic Surgery, Hair Extensions, etc. Yes! Gorgeous? Yes! Real Beauty? Maybe, but listen to us, and do wonder, who is she? Stupid is boring, and you know it! Yes, look for the sexy, but also for the smart, savvy, and sweet!
Crap.propaganda. .unrealistic airbrushed anorexic nasty so called models to make the average person feel underated

ZF-1483: Zend_Filter_Alpha has problems with utf8 strings
filtering a string like "grzegżółka" will cause problems
there is need to have regex with PCRE_UTF8 enabled to perform correctly.
return preg_replace('/[^[:alpha:]]/', '', (string) $value);
return preg_replace('/[\p{^L}]/u', '', (string) $value);
should work fine
Resolved with SVN r5099.
I can see why this change was made, but for me it is causing problems on certain platforms. On some, the extendes PCRE syntax "\p{}" doesn't seem to match anything. I could quite figure out what exactly is causing this problem. Up to now, I tried the following platforms:
Not working: Fedora Core 5, PHP 5.1.6, PCRE 6.3 Fedora Core 6, PHP 5.1.6, PCRE 6.6
Working: Fedora 7, PHP 5.2.2, PCRE 7.0 Solaris 10 x86, PHP 5.1.5, PCRE 6.6 Debian Etch, PHP 4.4.4, PCRE 6.7
Maybe, you could amend the docs to state the exact prerequisites to get Zend_Filter_Alnum et al. to work. That would surely help me a lot. :-)

The park's entry plaza honors Edward L. Romero, founder of the Albuquerque Hispano Chamber of Commerce, co-founder of the Hispanic Culture Foundation and the National Hispanic Cultural Center in New Mexico, and former U.S. Ambassador to Spain and Andora.
WHY IT'S COOL: The Albuquerque Bernalillo County Water Authority is currently constructing a potable water reuse pipeline that will transport polished wastewater from the authority's 60-mgd Southside Water Reclamation Plant to some 26 parks, fields, and other recreation areas. When the pipeline is complete, Ambassador Edward L. Romero Park will be the first Bernalillo County facility to be entirely irrigated with treated effluent.

In 2003, Senior Park Planner Clay Campbell struck a deal with the University of New Mexico's Landscape Architecture Program: have graduate students prepare preliminary designs for a new park in Albuquerque. The agreement allowed the county to stretch limited financial resources while giving students valuable experience in learning how far $2,500 can go.
The result: Four acres of recreation space in an area where parks are scarce. Now residents have convenient access to playgrounds, a climbing wall, walking paths, a picnic area, and connections to a local bicycle path.
The space also offered an opportunity to smooth hard feelings between residents of an established subdivision and those of a newer development that was built on farmland. By hosting informal meetings to gather feedback, the students cultivated a sense of community between residents of both subdivisions, which surround the park.
"The students brought tremendous creativity to the project and were able to help me advance it," says Campbell.
Seven graduate students, grouped into three teams, prepared three master plan concepts based on public input. A team from Weston Solutions Inc. (formerly Resource Technology Inc.) combined common threads and complementary patterns from the three plans into a single design that incorporates elements that work best together.
To ensure a 100-year storm event wouldn't drain into existing stormwater facilities that are already overtaxed, the developer of the newer subdivision was required to dig a retention pond on the park site that eventually became a weed-infested eyesore. Incorporating community feedback gathered by the students — and key to the aesthetics of the park — Weston designed a grading plan that spread water around the site and eliminated the need for a fence around the pond. Runoff entering the site through numerous drainage easements around the park's perimeter is channeled into shallow bio-swales and diffused across the park to irrigate native and xeric plantings as well as low-water-use hybrid turf. Comprised of a "reservoir" blend of gravel, compost, and native soils, the swales are capped with stepping stone-like pieces of broken concrete slabs that provide a path throughout the park.
Recycled concrete from streetscape and sidewalk replacement projects also controls erosion. To reduce runoff generated within the park, porous concrete — a first for Albuquerque — was used to pave the parking lot. The entry plaza is paved with permeable bricks.
A second phase of construction is under way to add basketball and sand volleyball courts as well as another picnic area and walking paths. It will cost the county $580,000 and is expected to be completed by September.

Travel backward through time from today's scattered billions to the handful of early humans who lived in Africa 60,000 years ago and are ancestors to us all.
In Deep Ancestry, scientist and explorer Spencer Wells shows how tiny genetic changes add up over time to a fascinating story. Using scores of real-life examples, helpful analogies, and detailed diagrams and illustrations, he translates complicated concepts into accessible language and explains exactly how each and every individual's DNA contributes another piece to the jigsaw puzzle of human history.
The book takes readers inside the Genographic Project, the landmark study now assembling the world's largest collection of DNA samples and employing the latest in testing technology and computer analysis to examine hundreds of thousands of genetic profiles from all over the globe.
Spencer Wells is an Explorer-in-Residence at the National Geographic Society and the director of the Genographic Project. After studying under genetic pioneer Luigi Cavalli-Sforza at Stanford University, he began an unusual career that combines science, writing, and filmmaking.
His acclaimed first book, The Journey of Man, combined his own DNA research with the work of archaeologists, paleoanthropologists, paleoclimatologists, and linguists to show how modern humans came to populate the planet.

Intel and MasterCard Worldwide have announced plans to enable consumers to tap their NFC phones and contactless cards on notebook computers to shop on the Web.
The multiyear collaboration is intended to build the technology, including contactless or NFC readers, into a new category of slim, light laptops packing Intel chips, which the giant chip maker calls Ultrabooks. Other PCs and devices supporting online payment would follow.
The readers combined with Intel's Identity Protection Technology would enable consumers to tap phones, cards and stickers that carry MasterCard's PayPass application to make purchases on Web sites that support the protection technology.
Get access to all premium content and the world's first global newsletter devoted to the NFC and contactless markets by subscribing to NFC Times, the most authoritative source for news and analysis in the industry.

NFC Times Exclusive Insight – Apple, as expected, will bring its payments service to e-commerce purchases and to three new markets–France, Switzerland and Hong Kong–the tech giant announced during its Worldwide Developers Conference Monday.
UPDATED: NFC Times Exclusive Insight – Following the launch of Samsung Pay in South Korea, the U.S., and China, Samsung's launches of its mobile payments service in two new markets, Spain and Australia, both contactless and EMV payments hot spots, will not support the device maker's proprietary Magnetic Secure Transmission technology, which is designed to make nearly all mag-stripe POS terminals potential acceptance points, NFC Times has learned. But in Singapore, Samsung Pay is expected to support MST technology.
NFC Times Exclusive – Sweden-based Seamless Distribution told NFC Times it will use a proxy-card architecture, along with host card emulation, to enable NFC payments from its SEQR mobile wallet, a move the company hopes will help it greatly expand the acceptance network for its wallet.
NFC Times Exclusive Insight – Wells Fargo's announcement this week that it plans to launch mobile payments from its own app this summer using host card emulation technology would make it the second major U.S. issuer to offer HCE-enabled service from its own Android app, following Capital One, though Wells Fargo plans to make the payments service part of its mobile-banking app.
NFC Times Exclusive – Certain point-of-sale terminals from a variety of device manufacturers aren't yet compatible with Samsung's proprietary Magnetic Secure Transmission technology, with Samsung Electronics' promise of universal acceptance of Samsung Pay at card-accepting merchant locations still apparently a far-off target.
NFC Times Exclusive Insight – In an effort to deliver on the promise of a "true mobile wallet" and, of course, boost its flagging smartphone market share in China, Samsung has struck a deal with Alibaba affiliate Ant Financial Services to enable the Alipay QR code-based payments service in China through Samsung Pay.
NFC Times Exclusive Insight – Barclays has no current plans to support Google's Android Pay service or Samsung Pay because by adding the Contactless Mobile functionality to the Barclays Mobile Banking app, the company "removed the need to do something else," a Barclays spokeswoman confirmed to NFC Times.
NFC Times Exclusive Insight – On Track Innovations CEO Shlomi Cohen sought to reassure investors that the company he took over nine months ago is more competitive and is moving toward profitability, though he declines to predict when it will turn its first yearly profit since its founding in 1990.
NFC Times Exclusive Insight – Apple has cracked the big five banks in Canada, with two of the country's largest banks, including Royal Bank of Canada, today announcing they are participating in Apple Pay, with the three others to follow.
NFC Times Exclusive Insight – The issue over availability of tokenization services and whether the major global networks, such as Visa, are allowing for a level playing field among token service providers has reached Taiwan–with a former prime minister and chief banking regulator weighing in on the topic–as Taiwanese officials decide how best to expedite the arrival of such mobile payments services as Apple Pay, Samsung Pay and Android Pay.
NFC Times Exclusive Insight – Despite providing the NFC technology for three "OEM Pays" that have launched in China or which are scheduled to do so, NXP Semiconductors CEO Richard Clemmer still says he sees transit fare collection as the main opportunity going forward for the chip maker's NFC technology in China.
NFC Times Exclusive insight – Yandex.Money, sometimes called the "Russian PayPal," is using host card emulation for its new NFC-enabled payments service, a Yandex.Money representative told NFC Times. PayPal earlier told NFC Times it also plans to use HCE for its app in the U.S.

Ever since getting our socks knocked off by Lower Lights Christmas concert last year, we've made it an annual holiday to do. And so have a lot of other people who waited patiently in the Masonic Temples' lobby with portraits of Masons past.
Check out SLMag critic Dan Nailen's deeply informed review of the show here.
Once again, the Utah County co-op of musicians helped us get our head screwed on straight about the meaning of the season: the funky-but-beautiful theater at the Salt Lake Mason Temple spun its time-machine magic, LL belted out their old-timey hymns, many infants were in attendance and the concert opened and closed with homages to "A Charlie Brown Christmas."
If anyone missed the point, Paul Jacobson, of the lower lights brought it home when he explained to any perplexed in the audience why "Brother" Hank Williams' "House of Gold" was on a Christmas concert playlist.
In short, as Brother Hank says:
What good is gold and silver, too
When your heart's not good and true.
The shows are allegedly sold out, but I saw more than a dozen empty seats, but the ticket takers were running an informal wait list, so if you want to take a chance on Kristmas kismet, hang around.
Oh yeah, here's that ceiling:

Employment Law Basics
Asserting Your Rights
If you believe you have been harassed or discriminated against at work, your best strategy is to talk to an experienced employment lawyer right away. A lawyer can review the facts of your situation and assess how strong your claims are. If you decide to take action, a lawyer can help you negotiate a settlement with your employer, file a charge of discrimination with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), and file a lawsuit. Age Discrimination.
Age Discrimination
As the Baby Boomers get older, age discrimination claims have grown more common. In the past few years, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) -- the federal agency that interprets and enforces antidiscrimination laws -- has received more than 20,000 charges of age discrimination per year. Age discrimination is prohibited by the federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA). Unlike other discrimination laws, the ADEA doesn't ban "reverse" discrimination. Discrimination is prohibited only against those who are at least 40 years old; younger workers aren't protected.
This section covers the ADEA and age discrimination. It also includes articles on the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, an amendment to the ADEA that prohibits age discrimination in benefits and regulates waivers of the right to sue an employer for age discrimination.
Discrimination and Harassment
Federal law prohibits employers from making job decisions based on an employee's or applicant's race, skin color, national origin, sex, religion, disability, genetic information, or age (if the person is at least 40 years old). These laws generally apply only to employers with at least 15 employees (the Age Discrimination in Employment Act applies only to employers with at least 20 employees). Almost every state also has laws prohibiting discrimination, and some of these laws apply to smaller employers or cover additional characteristics, such as sexual orientation and marital status.
The intent of these laws is to create equal employment opportunity for everyone, without regard to traits that have led to unfair mistreatment in the past. Unfortunately, the work of these laws is unfinished: Almost 100,000 charges of discrimination were filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission in 2010 alone, the highest number since the agency opened its doors. This section explains the laws that prohibit discrimination, as well as what to do if your rights have been violated. It also covers harassment and retaliation.
Harassment is defined as offensive, unwelcome conduct, based on the victim's protected characteristic (such as sex or religion), that is so severe or pervasive that it affects the terms and conditions of employment. This might take the form of "quid pro quo" harassment, in which the victim's job opportunities are conditioned on putting up with the harassment. ("If you want that raise, you'll agree to go out with me.") Or, it might take the form of hostile environment harassment, in which the workplace is poisoned by biased comments, lewd behavior, and other inappropriate behavior.
National Origin
Discrimination on the basis of national origin is prohibited by Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the major federal antidiscrimination law. Employers subject to Title VII may not make employment decisions based on birthplace, ancestry, culture, native language, surname, or other characteristics that are closely associated with someone's country of origin.
Special rules apply to language requirements. The languages people are comfortable speaking, accents, and fluency are all closely related to national origin. At the same time, however, the law recognizes that an employer may have a legitimate need to make sure customers can understand employees and employees can speak to each other in a common language, for example.
Race Discrimination
Employment discrimination on the basis of race still happens more often than anyone wants to believe: In 2010, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission received more than 35,000 charges of race discrimination. It exacts a very high price, both from its victims and from the companies where it occurs.
An employer commits race discrimination when it makes job decisions based on race or when it adopts seemingly neutral job policies that disproportionately affect members of a particular race. Race discrimination in private employment is prohibited by two federal laws: Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Section 1981 of the Civil Rights Act of 1866. The articles in this section cover both laws, as well as the process for bringing a race discrimination lawsuit and the remedies available to successful litigants.
Religious Discrimination
Religious discrimination occurs when employees or applicants are treated differently because of their religious beliefs (or lack thereof). Favoritism -- by which an employer favors those who share his or her religious beliefs -- is also prohibited. And, employers are legally required to reasonably accommodate their employees' religious practices and beliefs, unless doing so would impose more than a minimal cost or burden on the business.
In recent years, more than a third of the charges filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission have included an allegation that the employee was retaliated against for asserting his or her rights. In a retaliation case, the employee claims that the employer took a negative job action (such as firing or demoting the employee) because the employee complained of harassment or discrimination. Even if the underlying complaint turns out to be unfounded, the employee can still win a retaliation claim by showing that something negative happened because of the complaint.
Without protection from retaliation, the laws prohibiting harassment and discrimination would be very difficult to enforce. After all, if an employee could be fired for making a complaint, very few employees would be willing to report problems. Judges and juries alike seem to recognize this. Juries often slam employers found guilty of retaliation with high damage awards. And the Supreme Court has issued a series of decisions in retaliation cases that side with employees.
Sex Discrimination
Sex discrimination happens when an employer treats employees or applicants differently because of their gender. Pregnancy discrimination is a form of sex discrimination, as is sexual harassment.
Outright sex discrimination used to be more common in the past, with advertisements for a "Gal Friday," signs posted saying "Men Only Need Apply," and pregnant employees being forced out of their jobs once they were "showing." These days, sex discrimination is more likely to take the form of stereotyping based on gender roles -- that women should (or will want to) stay home with their children, or that men are more likely to be assertive, for example.
Sexual Orientation Discrimination
Currently, no federal law prohibits private employers from discriminating based on sexual orientation. That could change in the future, if Congress passed the Employment Nondiscrimination Act (ENDA), a bill that's been introduced in nearly every Congressional session for the last 15 years. Polls consistently show that a majority of voters support providing these job protections to gay, lesbian, and transgender employees and applicants.
Pregnancy Discrimination
Pregnancy discrimination is a form of sex discrimination, made illegal by Title VII. Employers may not discriminate against employees because of pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions in any aspect of employment, from hiring to firing.
Employers must treat pregnant employees who are temporarily unable to work due to pregnancy just as they treat other employees who are temporarily disabled -- no better and no worse. If an employer provides disability leave to employees with serious illnesses, for example, it must provide the same leave to an employee who is temporarily disabled by pregnancy.

So, I'm shooting my Mauser 8 MM today at 300 yd. Finally had it sighted in and was starting to push it. So, I have a Barska 20-60 x 60 spotting scope I picked up in Cabela's. I have the rifle set up in a Lead Sled with 25 lbs of shot in it and I'm holding it down as well...but even with that, it still kicks like a beast....enough to lift the rest and the 25-lbs of shot.
:headbang:Well...I fired and my spotting scope went down to the ground from the bench. Now, it won't focus. The focus knob moves and then the whole scope goes black.
I can open it up and get inside to fool with it, but I don't know what to do...
...is this fixable? Is it worth it? Or did I just ruin a spotting scope? :bangin:
Returning it is not much of an option. It will be over a month when I get back out, and I already had thrown away the packaging.

The Psychology BA Program | Academic Requirements & Concentrations | Student Learning Outcomes | Minor in Psychology | Courses | Faculty | Facilities | Internships | Alumni | Psychology Links
The Psychology BA ProgramOur program offers rigorous courses in the basic areas of academic psychology and opportunities to pursue more in-depth study for those students who are capable and motivated. Our philosophy is to provide a broad background in psychology with an emphasis on thinking about psychological questions from a scientific perspective. In addition, we encourage students to see psychology in terms of its connections to biology and philosophy, and in its historical, social and political contexts.
The Psychology Faculty. Psychology faculty are accomplished researchers and scholars who share a special dedication to working with undergraduate students. Our areas of specialty include child development, cognition, language, personality, social processes, gender, neuropsychology, and perception.
Excellent Preparation. The Purchase College psychology program provides a strong foundation for students who plan to continue their studies at graduate and professional schools. Our graduates are equipped to enter advanced degree programs in all areas of psychology as well as programs in education, medicine, social work and law. Some students move directly into careers in mental health services, research, teaching, and early childhood education.
Facilities. Our facilities for instruction and student/faculty research include computerized cognitive/experimental laboratories, a child study center, and facilities for observational and social psychological research. Where appropriate, our courses are taught in the Natural Science Building's modern computer classroom.
Hands-on Experience. Students have the opportunity to participate in a variety of internships that provide experience in childcare, clinical services, and research. These include an on-campus placement at the Purchase College Children's Center and off-campus placement at such institutions as New York Hospital-Cornell Medical Center, Westchester Division and the New York State Psychiatric Institute.
Mentoring. Unique features of the psychology program include the junior seminar and the senior project. The former is a library project on an issue of theoretical importance in contemporary psychology, and the latter is a research project based on work done in an on-campus laboratory or field placement. In both cases, students work in a one-to-one relationship with a faculty mentor. This apprenticeship relationship is a cornerstone of the educational program at Purchase. Many of our seniors present their research at regional and national professional meetings, and some are co-authors of published papers with their faculty sponsors.
Special Concentrations and Certificates. For students who are especially interested in how psychological/cognitive functions are produced by the brain, we offer an optional concentration in cognitive neuroscience. For students who are especially interested in education, we offer a certificate program in early childhood development.
Liberal Arts. The study of psychology is carried out in the context of the strong liberal arts emphasis of Purchase College. We prepare students for life, as well as for a career. Our extensive yet flexible core curriculum provides a solid grounding in the liberal and fine arts.

The war against weeds
They may look pretty, but invasive plants creep along roadside rights of way and become pests for adjacent landowners. With Clark County's community outreach program, landowners are more informed about noxious species. Photos: Clark County, Wash.,
This poorly maintained Zone 1 area shows vegetation growing right to the road edge, allowing water and other materials — in this case, mud — to accumulate. Bareground treatments that remove all vegetative growth prevent water from building up on road surfaces. Photo: Clark County, Wash.
Philip Burgess, director of the Clark County Weed Management Division, Wash., injects a stem of knotweed with glyphosate to keep the invasive species from reproducing.
Clark County utilizes Washington Department of Agriculture grants to fund control methods for Japanese knotweed, seen here along the Washougal River corridor in Clark County.
Located just across the Columbia River from Portland, Ore., historic Clark County, Wash., attracts visitors who enjoy open spaces. But there are some visitors for whom the county would rather not play host: knapweed, poison hemlock, and butterfly bush, to name just a few.
Left unchecked, invasive plants transform an ecosystem by crowding out native species and the animals that depend on them for food, shelter, and habitat. Noxious weeds also poison people and livestock and create fire hazards. Which is why Philip Burgess, director of the Clark County Weed Management Division, has enlisted an entire community in the state's war on weeds.
In addition to controlling noxious weeds in accordance with state law, Burgess' 10-person crew is responsible for controlling listed weeds in state- and county-owned areas as well as re-establishment areas: the 10,900 acres of surface water, parks, and roadsides on the county's 1,325 lane miles.
But he needs more than a handful of employees to face off against about 10 different species of invasive plants. So the weed management division set up a public education program in 1992 to inform private property owners about the importance of weed control.
"We don't want invasives going back and forth from the roadside areas to adjacent landowners' properties," Burgess explains.
As part of the public education program, county weed management representatives conduct two large outreach events each year, connecting with about 5,000 people including horticulture students, horse groups, small farm owners, and watershed stewards: One takes place during the spring and one at the Clark County Fair in the fall. The division also conducts a four-hour seminar each spring to inform mower and sprayer contractors about newer technologies and best management practices.
In other locales, landowners are usually concerned when they see herbicides being applied near their property. But thanks to the outreach program, this is rarely the case in Clark County, where property owners are told in advance about the benefits of herbicides. As a result, "some of the landowners are interested in spraying their own land with the same herbicides we're using," Burgess says.
Burgess and his team members also evaluate the correct timing in which to apply herbicides to get the most efficacy possible. And while only Clark County employees can apply herbicides on county lands, the department shares this information with the public to ensure proper use on private lands. "We have found that people, although interested in controlling weeds, often don't understand the need for the correct herbicide use and timing," he says. "We want to make sure they aren't wasting their time and money or getting sub-par results."
One of the most important parts of the program is the volunteers who help spread the word about invasive species. Eight men and women licensed by the Washington Department of Agriculture as herbicide applicators "help us reach people in a way that we can't do on our own with the limited resources we have," Burgess says. "They keep greenhouses of invasive species that we display at our outreach events, to help landowners identify what weeds are on their properties."
When land has been overtaken by weeds that are required by state law to be eradicated, the volunteers often help remove the plants by hand.
Another reason residents accept the use of herbicides is the county's emphasis on finding safe solutions. The "Green Team" — a cross-functional team of county staff that oversees environmental stewardship efforts — consults with county department users and technical experts to establish environmental criteria and evaluate herbicides based on the potential for groundwater and surface water contamination. The team also trains county employees and applicators on safety practices.
At least one herbicide — Milestone VM from Dow AgroSciences LLC — that the division relies on is registered under the EPA's Reduced Risk Pesticide Initiative. "It's been a real benefit for us to use herbicides with low environmental impact," says Burgess.
Another requirement for an herbicide is its effectiveness.
"It's important that we get more than just a burndown of target weeds," Burgess says. "[With herbicides] Some invasives aren't even coming back the next growing season, which has reduced our costs. Grasses have grown in nicely, and we haven't had any problems with brownout. Perhaps most important, the surrounding landowners see the end results."
Grants from the state agriculture department help the county eliminate early infestations of noxious weeds, such as yellow flag iris and garlic mustard. Public education also helps the county financially by enlisting the cooperation of residents in the quest to rid land of dangerous plants.
When the above steps aren't enough to control an invasive species, state law and Clark County code makes landowners responsible for controlling the spread of noxious weeds on their property. To enforce the law, Clark County's Weed Management Division established a notification program in 1990.

Rated 1 out of 5 by 1 reviewer.
Rated 1 out of 5 by Oliver Good look, very poor execution When I pulled this out of the box, the top and bottom pieces seemed well made, fairly sturdy. Things went completely downhill with the center rod. It just slips into the top and bottom pieces, with only 1 set screw on the bottom (umbrella) portion. The top piece just sits on the center rod with no way to lock it down. There is also a fair amount of play in the fit-up. One of the 'male' ends of the center rod was also slightly askew, not bent just not straight. Given that any number of heavy winter coats would be hung on this rack, how much this rack would wobble is beyond unacceptable. I wouldn't expect this poor of a design on a rack that cost $25, let alone [$]. Very disappointed, won't be buying from Cost-Plus online in the future. March 28, 2011

What are "Barefoot" or Minimalist Shoes?
Jump to ...
« Manufacturer »
Some call them "barefoot shoes" ...
... While others prefer the term "minimalist footwear." As Vibram's "FiveFingers" kicked off the craze, many barefoot-alternative converts assume "barefoot shoes" must be "those toe shoes" — the eye-catchingly strange foot gloves or shoes that look like feet. But the barefoot/minimalist footwear category is much more than shoes that look like feet.
And 'round here, we sorta like the name "Birthday Shoes" — not just because of the "birthday suit" pun, but also because it's a reminder that you were born barefoot, that homo sapiens survived for eons without high-tech sneakers, and shoe design should consider the natural, biologically "nude" state of the foot. If bare feet got humanity through the stone age, do we really need a thickly cushioned pair of Nike's simply to play outside or go for a run?
What makes a good shoe should be grounded in the foot's natural, bare state. Thus, a basic understanding of the naked foot is the simplest guide as to what the ideal shoe should be. To wit:
- shoes should allow your feet to move dynamically as they would barefoot.
- shoes shouldn't support our feet — the need for "arch support" for a healthy foot makes little sense given arches are innately strong structures. Supports may actually undermine the natural function of the arches in our feet!
- shoes should transmit "ground feel" allowing you to feel the terrain even if that means discomfort — in fact, being able to feel the ground may be the most important facet of learning how to walk and run with low impact, thereby reducing the chance of injury.
- shoes should have little to no impact on how you would move if barefoot — shoes shouldn't change your natural bio-mechanics (and if you're accustomed to wearing conventional shoes, note that your barefooted bio-mechanics will need some reworking!).
- shoes should be as light and keep your feet low to the ground!
This isn't a comprehensive list, but it hits on some of the most important facets behind what makes a shoe "minimalist" or "barefoot" ("barefoot shoes" may be an unfortunate way to describe barefoot-styled footwear, but it's probably the most colloquial way to convey the category).
Why are minimalist/barefoot shoes so popular these days? Because these types of shoes let feet be feet, making for healthier and happier human beings. Our kids know what most of us have forgotten—barefooted (or close to it!) movement is fun whether that be running, walking, playing, or just a random trip to the grocery store.
It's time we abandoned the prevailing paradigms around footwear. We don't need these overbuilt, overcushioned, arch-supporting monstrosities strapped to our feet to function. Free your feet and rediscover the inner kid in you.
Below you'll find a slew of detailed reviews of minimalist/barefoot shoes published here on BirthdayShoes. They're organized generally by style — Toe Shoes, Minimalist/Barefoot Shoes, and Huaraches/Barefoot Sandals. If you're new to BirthdayShoes, consider subscribing to our weekly email digest to keep up with the latest releases (as well as hearing about some really sweet deals) — subscribers are even automatically eligible to win free minimalist footwear via new model giveaways!

Toe Shoes
"Toe Shoes" is the term we've given to "barefoot shoes" that articulate the toes — as opposed to ballet slippers which sometimes go by the same name. There are a handful of types of toe shoes including Vibram FiveFingers, which are the original five toe shoes that arrived on the scene around 2006; Inov-8 EvoSkins, which have five toe pockets and showed up in 2010; Fila Skele-toes, which have only four toe pockets and showed up in Spring 2011; the Adidas Adipure Trainers, which came on in Fall 2011; and most lately, the BodyGlove 3T (Spring 2012), which only has three toe pockets.

Reviews for Chip Lover's Cupcakes
"Excellent and so easy. My teens made these for a friend's birthday and they looked like they'd come from a fancy bake shop! Our cookies sank to the bottom we didn't read comments about freezing cookie dough first...might try that, might not, I like the little crisp nugget of cookie dough at the bottom. We used all butter in the frosting too."
"I read the previous reviews so as to not have any mishaps. I froze the dough bites first, and used the foil cupcake liners. I didn't get very adventurous in making the frosting either (used canned), but I must say these are delicious! I ate one directly out of the oven and they are so fabulous! I also decorated mine w/ pretty sprinkles and such, as it's the holiday season. Yum!"
"Delicious and Gorgeous! I actually got 2 dozen from this recipe. Next time, I'll double the icing recipe because that's my favorite part."
"I would appreciate Donna adding to her recipe the secret to keeping the cookie dough in the middle of the cupcake. Mine sank to the bottom and stuck (as I see happened to others as well.) This made the cupcakes no better than what they ended up being - cupcakes from a packaged cake mix!"
"These cupcakes were simple and amazing! I noticed that most everyone who commented said they struggled because the cookie dough sinks to the bottom. Yes it sinks to the bottom but oh well! Just think of that as your last treat and scrape it off the wrapper with your teeth :) One thing I did discover, because I used paper cucake liners and foil cupcake liners, is that the dough DID NOT sink to the bottom of the cupcakes that were in the foil liners. I didn't make any of the frosting but the cupcakes themselves were delicious."

Drexel's libraries are as forward looking as the rest of the University. Sure, we have plenty of the traditional bound books, but we also have extensive research and periodical databases that can be accessed from anywhere, and a renowned staff who will help you find what you need. Our main branch, the Hagerty Library, is a great place for both solo and group study.
Photo: Hagerty Library
When you think of a library, you probably picture rows and rows of books, racks of periodicals, and people studying quietly in carrels. The Hagerty Library has all of the above, but, in keeping with our tradition of innovation, Drexel's library system also offers a few things that you might not have imagined.
Take our "bookless library," for example. That might sound like a strange idea until you stop and think about how much research is happening online these days. The Library Learning Terrace combines access to our vast electronic resources with customizable study spaces and expert personal librarians.
The personal librarian concept is another one of our innovations. Each year, every incoming student is assigned one. Your personal librarian is available both online and in person to help you learn about the information resources and people that will help you succeed at Drexel.
"The program is a natural extension of what libraries have done for a long time," says Danuta Nitecki, Drexel's Dean of Libraries, "but now we're adding a personal element." She should know, because in addition to being the dean, she serves as a personal librarian herself.
Your own personal librarian and your own personal library – that takes a lot of stress out of the research process.
