In Endorsement Battle, Perry Claims a Fellow Governor
Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal endorsed Texas Gov. Rick Perry Monday as his pick for the presidency, backing the chief executive of his neighboring state the same day former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty endorsed Mitt Romney.
"Voters want candidates that are going to be honest with them," Mr. Jindal said, echoing the argument of the Perry campaign against a barrage of attacks against the Texan's rhetoric.
In the tit-for-tat of the race for the Republican nomination, the competing endorsements went with type: A Red State governor backed a Red State governor. Mr. Romney, the former governor of Massachusetts, found fellow Blue State Republican to back him in Mr. Pawlenty.
The Jindal endorsement may blunt what appeared to be a brewing backlash against Mr. Perry from the Republican establishment. Mr. Pawlenty on Monday had cited Mr. Romney's "ability to get things done" in a state dominated by Democrats, a nod to the Romney argument that he is the more electable candidate because of his appeal to independents and some Democrats. Hours later, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee also hit Mr. Perry on the electability argument, tying him to former President George W. Bush and rapping the Texan's assertion that Social Security is a Ponzi scheme.
Mr. Jindal, appearing on CNN, said Mr. Perry will present a plan for saving Social Security from the demographic bubble threatening to destabilize it.
"He'll be demagogued. He'll be attacked, but let's be clear … by the time I get to retirement age, that trust fund will be gone," the young governor said. "Let's fix it for the younger generations."

A mid–air collision injures two Grand Valley motorcycle riders Sunday afternoon in the desert north of Grand Junction.
The crash happened at around 2 p.m. Sunday afternoon in the desert off of 29 Rd.
According to the Mesa County Sheriff's Office, the accident happened while the two Grand Valley men, one age 18 and the other age 20, attempted to jump a hill from opposite sides.
The men, who were not riding together, did not have time to react to one another and collided in mid–air.
Both men were taken to St. Mary's Hospital after sustaining undisclosed injuries and Sheriff's Office Deputies say neither rider will be cited for the accident.

The Sandbox Global Summit kicked off this year's summit season for me. The Summit Series had their 500 person-strong Basecamp gig in Squaw Valley, which will be followed by Kairos Global Summit in New York. The Sandbox event was live for just 72 hours between the 20th and 22nd of January, but for many of us, it's been going on for much longer. Sandbox co-founder Antoine Verdon has spent most of the last six months building this event. I have been on Portuguese soil for five weeks prior the event; Alicia Sully, my colleague at What Took You So Long (WTYSL), was there for three weeks.
This year, the Sandbox Summit's working title was "Lisbox" -- a fusion word of Lisbon and Sandbox. Time stood still during these 72 hours of constant action. We were free of trouble and open for collaboration. But there were no over-the-top DJ performances or live bands like at last year's Summit at Sea, instead the whole gathering was crowd sourced from within the Sandbox network. Anarchy ruled in this open space. The sharing sessions were hierarchy-less in that anyone was invited to host one, and those that chose to, did so from how to dance the Merengue to the art of pouring a perfect Guinness. The session hosts -- all unpaid -- shared straight-up information based on their own experience of success and failure. It was an accelerated and practical learning curve experience for most participants. Someone summarized the whole thing as, "a major love fest."
Before the summit started, Nairobi-based Sandboxer Jonathan Kalan broke it down to the world in his HuffPo blog. He describes Sandboxers as, "geographically loose yet an extremely tight-knit group of individuals, held together by the fabric of social networking, constant couch surfing, and a slew of global networks."As Sandbox co-founder Fabian Pfortmuller beautifully articulates in Jonathan Olinger's Sandbox Transamerica video: The strongest bond one can have is your family.
"The world is going to change. Technology's going to change. Politics are going to change. But what's going to stay the same are relationships. It's going to allow us to make amazing things happen together."
The family he refers to is the Sandbox family and the emphasis at the summit was on building bonds between the 150+ Sandboxers that participated in this global gathering.
Sandbox is a global network of selected innovators under 30, a community of over 600 people in 48 countries and 23 hub cities. We have hubs everywhere from San Francisco to Shanghai; our latest expansion is the Cairo-hub. We all came to the summit because we believe in the collective power of Sandboxers. "If we didn't think we were going to change the world, we wouldn't be here."
I love to work together with Sandboxers to make shit happen. I find my fellow "boxers" online/offline/side ways and straight ahead. I would argue that most of us are knowmads -- I know I am. What's epic is that people help each other out without asking for anything back.
I once had a dream that we would build a big sandbox inside the event space, MUDE. I got blocked by one of the museum staff to materialize my dream. Anger infiltrated my body but I quickly converted that into my fallback plan -- let's build a Sandbox in the sand on the beach! We secured timber. All we needed was the following of a few to manifest this creation.
Inspired by the idea to build an actual Sandbox we launched an attack on the beach just across the square from MUDE. Thirty noble men and women with timber in their hands overran the nonexistent defense line of the beach. I put Joe Amoros Moya a Spanish Sandbox ambassador in charge of making the physical sand box. He quickly took charge and with the support of a local homeless person, without the ability to speak English or Portuguese, he turned the beach into a love-haven for collaborators.
An hour and a half later our bodies were sun-soaked and the physical sand box was erected in front of moving cameras and time-lapse go-pros. The Sandbox world will never forget Persian think-tanker Manoucher's inaugural speech marking the completion of our 3D sand box cube, or New York-based Sandbox ambassador Niamh's heroic workmanship and leadership to involve more females in the previously male-dominated building process. We will never be able to replicate the energy that we created on the beach.
During the Sandbox Summit, our currently stationary nomad photographer and surfer friend Antonio Gamito took 8,000 portraits of the 200 participants.
I compiled these photos, taken by Antonio Gamito, and made them into a movie:
I chose the "Opposite Of Adults" theme song by Chiddy Bang because the lyrics capture the feeling that youth is a continuous journey: "Hey yo, I once was a kid, all I had was a dream."
On the final day of the summit, Sandboxers were asked to write down their take on life to be compiled into an playbook, a manifesto of sorts that will be available to the world in collaboration with Bloomberg Businessweek. Over the course of an hour or so, small groups of sleep-deprived Sandboxers gathered with blank sheets of paper to fulfill the request to draw and design the pages of the e-book capturing the philosophy that we, as Sandboxers, engage the world.
The summit is over and now I'm transitioning back to Kenya. I feel mixed emotions all around because my continuous travel and inability to stop moving makes it difficult to step away and reflect.
But even though the summit is over, it's really never over. So what is everyone doing right now? Follow the Twitter list of the participants! On Twitter you can use the hashtag #lisbox12. Check out Sandboxer Rahaf's totally amazing blog on the summit and the Barbara Streisand-inspired thoughts of Pakistani Sandboxer Kalsom!
So, what's next for Sandbox? Incubation, funding and growth! Part of the reason this will happen is that now that Sandbox's management is centered in Zurich (as opposed to being spread out as it was before). Here Sandbox's official way forward blog.
I'm in love. It happened in Sweden of all places (my first home, but one that I have not lived in for nine years) during Christmas. Inspired by falling for this woman I felt a desire to share it non-verbally through graffiti imprints on Sandboxers' arms. With the help of a thick black marker I wrote "LOVE" on the forearms of 10 people. Ten turned into 20, 30, 40 -- even in the middle of a Portuguese night club I was busy spreading the LOVE.
Day two of my quest and people come up to me requesting to get tagged. Day three people come up to me for refills because their love was fading away. Love will throw you off the camel and back up again. Don't give up on love. Embrace it. Let's embrace the unknown more often, never stop moving, and know that love will set you free.
This was my message.

How to Apply for a Student Loan
- Complete and submit the MGCCC Loan Request Form
- Complete the Loan Entrance Counseling and Master Promissory Note (MPN) at www.studentloans.gov
- Please note: Students must be enrolled in a minimum of 6 credit hours and meet MGCCC's Satisfactory Academic Progress policy in order to be eligible for a student loan.
William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan
Loans made through this program are referred to as Direct Loans. Eligible students and parents borrow directly from the US Department of Education at participating schools. Direct Loans include subsidized and unsubsidized loans and PLUS loans.
Direct Subsidized Loans
This loan is based on financial need. The federal government "subsidizes" (or pays) the interest on these loans while you are in school at least half-time, for the six months after you leave school (also known as your grace period), and during a deferment (a postponement of loan payments). Award amounts vary based on grade level in school, dependency status, and other financial assistance received.
Direct Unsubsidized Loans
This loan is not based on financial need, and interest is charged on the loan from the time it is disbursed until it is repaid in full. Students have the option of paying the interest during deferment periods and during the grace period, or they may capitalize the interest. Capitalizing interest means that it will be added to the principal amount of the loan, and it will increase the amount of loan to be repaid. Award amounts vary based on grade level, dependency status, and other financial assistance received.

Direct PLUS Loans
This is a loan for parents of dependent students. The maximum loan amount is the difference between the student's cost of attendance and other aid the student receives. PLUS loans are the financial responsibility of the parent, not the student. Interest begins to accrue on the day of the first disbursement and repayment begins within 60 days after the last disbursement of the loan.
Interest Rates (Loans made on or after July 2, 2013 and before July 1, 2014)

Exit Counseling
The U.S. Department of Education regulations require that all loan recipients complete an exit interview when graduating or leaving MGCCC. You can access the exit counseling at www.studentloans.gov.
NSLDS for Students
The National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) is the U.S. Department of Education's central database for student aid. It receives data from schools, the Direct Loan program, the Pell Grant program, and other U.S. Department of Education programs. NSLDS provides a centralized, integrated view of Title IV loans and Pell Grants that are traced through their entire cycle from aid approval through closure.

Understanding EPA's air data
EPA is overseeing Enbridge's sampling and monitoring efforts. The tools being used provide information about the levels of chemicals in the air. To evaluate the chemical monitoring information, public health scientists compare air sampling results to health-based screening concentrations (also called "screening levels"). These screening levels are developed from health effects information about each volatile organic chemical (VOC). Screening levels assume a person is breathing a pollutant continuously (24 hours a day, seven days a week) for as long as one year. The screening levels are considered protective for up to one year of exposure. They are based on various criteria and some of the values are protective for durations longer than one year.

The Free Online Dictionary writes that a dulcimer, also called the Appalachian dulcimer and the mountain dulcimer, is, "A narrow, often hourglass-shaped stringed instrument having three or four strings and a fretted fingerboard, typically held flat across the knees while sitting and played by plucking or strumming." But anyone who plays the dulcimer can tell you it is much more than that.
In the Patricia Delich and Wayne Jiang film — "Hearts of the Dulcimer" (a passionate journey of the mountain dulcimer), which plays this Sunday afternoon at the Pedro Point Firehouse — several long-time dulcimer players discuss what led them to pick up this truly American-made instrument which originated in the Shenandoah Valley/Southern Appalachian region in the late 1800s.
"The sound of the dulcimer, it had a combination of the mountain, but also Medieval/Renaissance, there was that wistfulness that really thrilled me."
"The dulcimer is appealing to the counterculture in California partly because it represents something that is very different from mainstream, consumerist, materialistic, industrialized America."
"The dulcimer really ministers to people's hearts."
Written, directed, filmed, edited and produced by Pacificans Patrician Delich and Wayne Jiang, the married couple met over the dulcimer.
"It was a dulcimer festival in the Santa Cruz Mountains, among the redwoods," Jiang said. "It was in 2006."
"To meet over an instrument that has heart is really great," Delich said
Literally, Delich speaks of the heart-shaped sound holes often found in the dulcimer. These dulcimer sound holes are as special to the instrument as the person who buys the instrument. While people can choose a wide variety of shapes for those sound holes, heart-shaped ones are the most common.
"The pure heart shape hole just really explains the relationship with the individual and their instrument," Jiang said. "It is very heart felt." The couple married in 2008.
Delich, a music major and classically trained flute player, who holds a doctoral degree in educational technology, first heard the dulcimer played by the late American writer and folksinger Richard Farina. It was in the '70s, at the Renaissance Faire in Los Angeles. Delich was instantly captivated. The teenager bought her first dulcimer from one of the Faire's merchants, a legend now in dulcimer circles, Michael Rugg.
"I began to play in jam sessions," Delich said. "It was very informal.
You don't need to know how to read music to play the dulcimer. It's a diatonic instrument, using only the seven tones of a standard scale without chromatic alterations (do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do). Dulcimer players use tablature, or tabs, which is music notation using letters or numbers to indicate the strings and frets. When Delich bought her first dulcimer, she was also given a "tab" that was very influential to her, a tag she realized recently, was composed by Michael Rugg. Michael and his brother Howard figure prominently in the couple's documentary.
"Howard Rugg was one of the premiere dulcimer builders in California during the 1970s and 1980s," the filmmakers note on their website. "He co-founded CapriTaurus and Folk Roots Dulcimers (a small shop located in the Santa Cruz Mountains), with his brother Michael. Many people purchased their first dulcimer from Michael at the Renaissance Faires."
"Howard Rugg was originally a cabinet maker and he figured out how to make a very good instrument at a very low price," Delich said. "My first dulcimer was probably $35, and it was really well made."
"The dulcimer has an unfiltered, rustic quality to it, and that really appealed to the counterculture of that time," Jiang said, "the back to the land movement and the do-it-yourself kind of thinking — that made the dulcimer a really nice marriage."
Jiang, who is a fine artist and designer, with exhibits all over the Bay Area including at the Sanchez Art Center, didn't pick up the dulcimer until he was thirty. A friend, who lived in the Santa Cruz Mountains, loaned him an instrument. Originally from Guangzhou, China, Jiang moved to San Jose when he was fifteen. In college, he discovered American folk music through folks like Lead Belly and Elizabeth Cotten.
"Its simplicity and its expression really appealed to me," Jiang said. "I think that folk music and dulcimer music are very participatory, not so complicated." It turns out that the instrument Jiang was loaned, was made by Howard Rugg. It also turns out, that Howard is making dulcimers again, not the thousands that he once made, but one beautifully crafted instrument at a time.
Delich and Jiang began working on the documentary two and 1/2 years ago. Their 55-minute film tells the story of the rise and fall (and potential comeback) of the mountain dulcimer in California, illustrated by past and present musical performances, and players and builders reminiscing. The impetus was the film the "Mighty Uke," a documentary released in January of 2010 about the ukulele's comeback.
"We saw that film and realized that there was nothing out there about the dulcimer, and how huge it was in the California counterculture of the late 1960s, and its ties to the Santa Cruz Mountains," Delich said. "Since we both have a lot of knowledge and access to the dulcimer community, we felt we could do it."
"When Joni Mitchell came out with her record 'Blue' (1971) which featured the dulcimer, every 'moon child' with long hair wanted to play the dulcimer," Jiang said. "It was cool and hip."
"The folks in the Santa Cruz Mountains back in those days were the college educated 'hillbillies' of California," Delich said. "There is a certain roughness and ruggedness that people have in the Santa Cruz Mountains, which kind of relates to the Appalachians."
The film mostly covers the dulcimer in California from the 1960s to now, but it also provides information going back to the Civil War. Screened to date in Tennessee and Arkansas, the couple hopes for screenings all over the world.
"Our biggest hope for this film is that people get to know the instrument and realize it is a great form of self-expression for anyone at any age," Jiang said. "A lot of people start playing it in their 50s and 60s. We know someone who just took it up in her late 70s."
"Everyone should 'do' music," Jiang continued. "It's not just for the professionals."
"Hearts of the Dulcimer," a feature-length documentary film by Patricia Delich and Wayne Jiang plays Sunday, October 27, 4 p.m., at the Pedro Point Firehouse, 1227 Danmann Ave., Pacifica. The film is a presentation of the Firehouse Film Series, and is a fundraiser for the Pedro Point Firehouse. Tickets are $15. There will be a dulcimer concert prior to the screening and a Q&A session follows. Tickets are at door only. firstname.lastname@example.com.

Projects Temporarily Suspended
Fifty percent of the City's PPRTA Capital "A List" projects have been finished as approved by voters during the November 2, 2004 election. Reductions in City General Fund revenues have resulted in a shortfall for City Engineering's staff availability to manage the remaining capital projects. During the 2010 Pikes Peak Rural Transportation Authority (PPRTA) Board of Directors' Budget Workshop (11/12/09), the City of Colorado Springs requested PPRTA support for City project management of PPRTA Capital Projects for one year. At the December 9th PPRTA Board of Directors' Meeting, this request was denied. The PPRTA Board is made up of 3 County Commissioners, 3 City Council Members, the Mayors of Manitou Springs and Green Mountain Falls, and a Trustee from the Town of Ramah. The City has cut thirteen City PPRTA project related positions, and notified vendors of project suspensions.
The City Engineering Division will be competitively selecting a private sector consulting firm to manage its PPRTA capital projects. Due to the time it will take to properly implement this management change, the City is temporarily suspending all City PPRTA Capital work until a program management staff is in place. This does not affect the Woodmen Road project since the majority of that funding is from the federal stimulus program. The following capital projects are immediately affected:
- South Metro Accessibility (Proby Pkwy.) Phase 1
- Austin Bluffs Corridor Improvements - Nevada Ave. to Academy Blvd.
- Austin Bluffs Corridor Improvements - Barnes Rd. to Old Farm Dr.
- Fillmore/El Paso St. Improvements
- Vincent Drive Bridge at Cottonwood Creek
- Vincent Drive Extension
- Hancock Avenue Bridge at Templeton Gap Floodway
- Roadway Safety and Traffic Operations Projects:
- Platte Ave. Corridor - Hancock to Union
- Hwy. 24 @ 21st Street Intersection
- 8th Street @ Arcturus/Ramona Intersection
- Hwy. 24 @ 26th Street Intersection
- Las Vegas @ Royer Intersection and RR Crossing
City staff requests citizens' patience during this transition period. The City is committed to completing these capital projects but needs time to make this program management adjustment.

Take ESPN's frankly minimal reaction to that of Sky Sports in England, when a similar controversy broke in 2011. Richard Keys and Andy Gray were the biggest soccer commentary team possibly in all of Europe, and both were sacked immediately in the aftermath of a controversy that saw them make sexist comments about a female official that were picked up on air. Gray's comment in particular was very similar to Musburger's seemingly senile ramblings. At the time, Gray said; "Can you believe that? A female linesman. Women don't know the offside rule." Sky Sports acted immediately, sacking the two for that and other comments, and were almost unanimously applauded for doing so.
Why is it not OK in the UK and Ireland to make sexist comments to a wide audience, but, it would appear it is OK to do so in the USA? None of the fallout from this is funny, or acceptable. In this day and age we should not be accepting the objectification of a gender, male or female.
If you are one of the idiotic luddites who is laughing at this and boldly declaring 'I don't see what the problem is?!', well consider for a second that it was your mother, sister, wife or girlfriend being salivated over by what sounded frankly like a disgusting old pervert, picture that and ask yourself, is that OK? Are you cool with that?
Completely unacceptable behaviour for anyone, and particularly for a senior ESPN analyst.
Let's see if there is any further fallout, or if ESPN are going to play double-standards, and sack Rob Parker for a race related comment, while basically only slapping the wrists of Musburger.

Mendelism, the principles of heredity formulated by the Austrian Augustinian monk Gregor Mendel in 1865. These principles compose what is known as the system of particulate inheritance by units, or genes. The later discovery of chromosomes as the carriers of genetic units supported Mendel's two basic laws, known as the law of segregation and the law of independent assortment. In modern terms, the first of these states that genes are transferred as separate and distinct units from one generation to the next. The two members (alleles) of a gene pair, one on each of paired chromosomes, separate during the formation of sex cells by a parent organism. One-half of the sex cells will have one form of the gene, one-half the other form; the offspring that result from these sex cells will reflect those proportions. A modern formulation of the second law, the law of independent assortment, is that the alleles of a gene pair located on one pair of chromosomes are inherited independently of the alleles of a gene pair located on another chromosome pair and that the sex cells containing various assortments of these genes fuse at random with the sex cells produced by the other parent.

Sage has been used by herbalists for centuries for a number of conditions, but is better known today for its use in cooking. However, sage is a potent herb with some interesting natural ingredients. Recently sage has become a popular ingredient in supplements for the menopause, a use supported by some studies. However the levels used in these products are generally too low to be relevant.Sage has also been recommended as an aid to maintaining memory and a recent study showed that sage was able to improve alertness in some of the participants in the study.
Each of these Lamberts® Sage tablets provides the equivalent of 2.5g of dried herb. We insist on a high grade sage extract that has a guaranteed level of 2.5% rosmarinic acid (the 'active' compound in sage). Sage also contains an unpleasant naturally occurring compound called thujone, but the sage extract we use in this Lamberts® product is carefully manufactured to be have very low, insignificant levels of thujone.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
by Roald Dahl
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Chapter 15 Summary
The Chocolate Room
- The Chocolate Room is beloved by Willy Wonka: it's the heart of his factory and it's beautiful, he says.
- And boy, is he right. In the room, there's a beautiful valley with a river running through it. Along the river, there is a marvelous waterfall, with dozens of glass pipes going into the river. And there are bushes and trees and flowers and – wait for it – it's all edible.
- Yep, you can eat every last drop of The Chocolate Room, from the river (made entirely of chocolate) to the grass (made of sugar). We're getting a sugar high just thinking about it.
- Not surprisingly, all of the children (and adults!) start eating everything in sight. And it's as delicious as it is beautiful.
- Suddenly, Veruca starts screaming and pointing toward a little man in the distance. Everyone looks and realizes that they are tiny men with long hair, and they are all laughing at the children.
- What on earth are these creatures? "They're Oompa-Loompas," explains Mr. Wonka (15.32). Of course they are.

Lost a yellow champion sidewinder on hole 5. It was my second shot as I was going towards the gold placement. I believe it is close to the bike trail in the woods, but if I knew for sure I wouldn't be posting it here. I turned around on my next drive, hole #6 (duh), and ran an orange Ti Stalker short of the first opening on the left. It was wicked hot and I had my kid in the stroller so I gave up a good search. If you find either disc, I would appreciate a phone call. Libation reward if found and returned. My name and number is on both. Thanks

Used to have lunch now and then at Subway inside the local Wal Mart. Did anyone ever get a sandwich that looked like the ones in their banners/signs?? Got too many chinzy sandwiches and to get the associates to toss on even more lettuce is almost like pulling teeth. I appreciate portion control but jeez, their ads nowhere say sandwich depicted is with the extra cost double meat option.
So I emailed corporate, got a call from the local manager and got a free sandwich out of my complaint...very admirable and respectible, but even the freebie was feeble compared to their signage. Mentioned that to the manager and got babble back. Well, have not been back to eat there since even if their baking bread smells so dang good.
Anybody else notice how slim their sandwiches are compared to their ads??

Subway has many, many problems with its employees and franchise holders but food quality and portion size is not one of them. I would invite this person to take any product she wishes from any place she desires have it professional photographed and then reproduce that product to match several thousand times a day. They have an outstanding product and the most stringent inspection process in the industry, which insures cookie cutter production.
It is the policy of SUBWAY to respond to each customer compliant within twenty-four hours, this always results in an apology for the incident and most time a free product of some type. This particular consumer like a lot of others was simply looking for a free meal and a complaint is the fastest road to that end.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Really?? Honestly?? You would tarnish a companies reputation and waste internet space on this? My sandwish doesn't have enough meat on it........thats awesome. Anyway, subway has been around for more than 30 years and me being 23yrs old, Ive never seen them make the sandwiches any different. You know Im pretty sure Subway like any restaurant measures out portions of food to put on the sandwich so they can generate a profit. Regardless of that, I think its pretty bad that you waited this long to start complaining. If your trying to gorge yourself, why dont you try the mcdonalds next door? Something tells me you arent a very fit person if your complaining about portion size.

Analysis: Narrator Point of View
Who is the narrator, can she or he read minds, and, more importantly, can we trust her or him?
First Person (central narrators); Frame story
Confused? We don't blame you. Frankenstein is made up of:
Walton's letters, which include
Victor's story, which includes
the monster's story, which includes
Felix's story (told in third person)
What the point of having all these different stories? Here's one idea:
Science is all about trying to figure out how the world works. Victor himself tells us that when he says he wants to "penetrate the secrets of nature" (2.7). So, you could say that the scientist is trying to adopt the perspective of God, who's the ultimate third-person omniscient narrator: he knows everything about everyone.
But in Frankenstein, we never get that perspective. All we get are a bunch of people's stories, and we have to piece together the truth from that. Do we believe the monster's own story about himself? Or do we believe what Victor says about him: that he's a heartless, cruel, ugly monster? You could say that Shelley makes us like scientists, having to piece together imperfect information—and you could also say that, by giving us so many different stories, she shows us it's impossible to ever really know.

AbstractThe Critical Assessment of Small Molecule Identification, or CASMI, contest was founded in 2012 to provide scientists with a common open dataset to evaluate their identification methods. In this article, the challenges and solutions for the inaugural CASMI 2012 are presented. The contest was split into four categories corresponding with tasks to determine molecular formula and molecular structure, each from two measurement types, liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS), where preference was given to high mass accuracy data, and gas chromatography-electron impact-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), i.e., unit accuracy data. These challenges were obtained from plant material, environmental samples and reference standards. It was surprisingly difficult to obtain data suitable for a contest, especially for GC-MS data where existing databases are very large. The level of difficulty of the challenges is thus quite varied. In this article, the challenges and the answers are discussed, and recommendations for challenge selection in subsequent CASMI contests are given.

QUALITY CONTENT: The cover of the first issue of DOTPHOTOZINE, an annual print magazine and regularly updated Web site, founded by the photo club at California State University, San Bernadino.
In fall 2010, Michelle Cade, a photo major at California State University, San Bernadino (CSUSB), decided her school needed a photo club, so she stepped up as the founding president. "The club had great members and a lot of energy, so I suggested we start the magazine," says CSUSB faculty member Thomas McGovern. He offered some department funds earmarked for professional development, while Cade and fellow student Theo DeHart petitioned Associated Students, Incorporated (ASI), the campus's student government for support—which they gave while exerting no control over content.
On June 6, 2011, the group launched DOTPHOTOZINE simultaneously as an annual hold-in-your-hands magazine and a more flexible Web zine, which allows for a continual offering of new content.
McGovern, a former New York City–based editorial photographer and Village Voice photo editor, is now DOTPHOTOZINE's publisher and editor in chief. In his view, "young people are pioneers. Analog is slipping into the past, but technology is promising more than it can deliver, so watching my students navigate the terrain is instructive."
All club members are associate editors tasked with finding material to run. Cade (a 2011 graduate), Dehart (design director and another recent grad) and current club officers Sarah Dominick and Melissa Kirchhoff make editorial selections with McGovern's input. "We're determined to publish only the highest-quality photography and related material," McGovern says, "and acting as a group helps us do that."
Both online and analog versions offer exhibition and book reviews. Non thematic salon sections present images from all levels of CSUSB's photo program. A feature section displays photographer portfolios and short texts, and Web site content spotlights additional content with a more in-depth approach. Also online: a blog where students and alumni are encouraged to submit reviews, profiles and anything else relevant to photography. The magazine e-mails links to everyone featured, so, McGovern says, "I'm sure they're reading and telling others."
While the group could afford to print only 75 copies of the first issue, print-on-demand copies can be ordered from the Web site for $12 each. "It's a great way to keep the publication alive once the initial run is sold out," McGovern says.
Funding for the second issue will cover a run of 1,500 copies, available directly from the club. "Once again, we'll send copies to galleries, museum curators, photography programs and art publications," says McGovern. "Sales are not our first priority, but I do hope (and really expect) to make the publication self-sustainable." Every image in the magazine is available for licensing or purchase, with contributor e-mail addresses listed on the magazine's Contact page.
Always on the lookout for opportunities, the tireless CSUSB crew makes sure the magazine gets seen as much as possible. Last fall, it was accepted to a number of juried fairs. Select images from the first issue were also exhibited at the New York Delight gallery in Pomona, California.
Looking ahead, the second issue is due out June 1, 2012, and DeHart aims to make it "as amazing as possible." To celebrate, the entire second issue will be featured in a June 2012 exhibition at the Work/Life Gallery in Palm Springs, California.
Michael Ng ('09) praises the valuable perks offered by affiliation with DOTPHOTOZINE. "As a relatively new alumnus, any exposure I receive is very beneficial," he says. "I feel as though I've been receiving continual support from school, and that's something most people can't say after graduating."

A truck driver is facing charges after a crash on Interstate 74 Thursday morning.
Authorities said the truck ran off the left side of eastbound I-74 just north of Montana Avenue and overturned.
The truck's load of canned Minute Maid lemonade spilled across the median. One lane of I-74 was closed as crews worked to help the driver and figure out how to remove the truck.
Police said the driver, Wayne Chappelle, 59, of Knoxville, Tenn., suffered minor injuries and is listed in stable condition at UC Medical Center. Police said he has been charged with OVI and failure to control.
The crash remains under investigation. All eastbound lanes were closed at North Bend Road just before noon for cleanup operations, but reopened about 30 minutes later.

The school year is winding down but it won't be long before parents hear the dreaded words, "there's nothing to do!" Aside from summer camps that can sometimes cost a lot of money, there are several alternatives locally for parents seeking an end to the cries of boredom.
One of the most popular free events is Summer Swim and Play, provided by the City of Marietta. The event will be held again this year at Indian Acres and the aquatic center from June 13 through August 5. The event, which will be from 9 a.m. to noon, is open to every city resident between the ages of 5 and 13. There is no income requirement and free lunch will be provided. Parents are welcome to send kids for the entire time or for just an hour or two if that's all that is needed.
"It's really popular," said Susan Joyce with the city recreation department. "The kids get to play games, they swim three days a week and sometimes we'll have speakers."
Joyce said roughly 60 youngsters register each year. This year's registration will take place at Indian Acres on June 10 from 9 a.m. to noon.
Buses will also pick up children from Washington School around 9:04 a.m. and at Phillips at 8:20 a.m.
For many kids in the area, this program is important not only socially but is sometimes the only way they can eat, according to Jennifer "Fred" Parrish who runs the free food program through the county.

"This is the best meal - sometimes the only meal - a lot of these kids have," she said.
The city's program is one of five for which the county supplies free meals, although the other four are for children who are already enrolled in a camp or program.
If parents are looking for somewhere to take their kids that isn't necessarily an all-day thing but rather a chance to get out for a little while, there are hour-long programs at the local library branches being offered.
"We try to have something for every day of the week," said Susan Chipps, manager of the Beverly branch of the Washington County library. "And we tell parents if maybe they need that hour to go to the store or run errands, it's a safe place for the kids."
Story Time for preschoolers and caregivers is offered Wednesdays at 11 a.m., World Travelers is a program held on Tuesdays at 11 a.m., craft activities are on Friday mornings and family movie nights are held each Monday.
All programs are free of charge. The summer reading program only requires signing up.
"We want to get them to love reading," Chipps said.
Another annual free event is also gearing up, when different communities will hold Safetytown for area children. Marietta will hold their event June 20 through 30 with morning and afternoon sessions and there is still time to sign up, according to officials at Harmar School where the event is held each year. Sign-ups are available at the school. Children heading into kindergarten or those who didn't attend before kindergarten last year are also still welcome to sign up at Beverly-Center elementary where the Beverly Lions Club is sponsoring Safetytown there beginning June 6.

Hey guys,
I'm using the Simple Taxonomies plugin on a 2.8.4 install, and overall I'm happy with it. However, on the archive page for a given URL (for example, http://stereokill.net/label/epitaph-records), it outputs the page title (ie, what's displayed in the browser tab itself), as:
"Label Epitaph Records | mydomain.net"
I'd like to change how it formats this, but I can't work out which line of code in the plugin governs this.
Any suggestions?

Wow! All you can say about the Sikeston-Poplar Bluff game. Talk about never quitting. Great win Dawgs. Best of luck at Farmington. Sikeston is proud of you. Great job, coaches, players and fans. This feels like the start of something big!
I'd like to speak to the person or persons who came into my home in Morehouse and took some legal documents out. I'd appreciate it very much if they would bring them back intact and not all torn up, just like they found them. I don't need to know who they are, all I need is my documents back. Put them on my doorstep or my porch. If they can read, they know how important these documents are to me.
I've been calling I don't know how many times now. I know you are a Republican Mike, I haven't named no gas stations here in town, Mississippi County or Scott County or New Madrid County. Why is our gas still 25 cents higher than what it is up around Kansas City where they have a clean act rule, which is they have to burn cleaner gas than what we have to down here. Right now they are paying $2.02 a gallon and it's $2.35 a gallon at one station and $2.25 at another. I know you probably won't put this in SpeakOut because that's how you are. You're a Republican!
This is in regard to silencing the train whistles. Train whistles have a purpose, it is to warn people that they are on the tracks. Those people that don't want to hear this - I'm sure those trains were there when they bought that house. That's just something you get used to. If I thought I didn't want to hear a train whistle and someone dies because of that, I don't think I could live with that.
Why is it that when you all go into some places of business the employees are so rude to people? Aren't there some type of rules about employees' treatment of customers? If you are providing a good or service, you have a job because of public need. Shouldn't you be able to work with the public? I wonder how these people keep their jobs treating customers like dirt! With the way the economy is now, there is always someone looking to take your place at your job.
What a hoot. All these Reagan free market Republicans thanking God for saving their butts by nationalizing the banking system.

Conference Examines Behavioral and Social Aspects of NextGen Compliance
Posted by inece-secretariat on May 6, 2015 in INECE Secretariat, News | 0 comments
An INECE international conference held 21-22 April at the Erasmus University in Rotterdam examined behavioral and social aspects of next generation compliance.
The conference examined behavioural and social aspects of 'next generation compliance', and was organized around the theme of Innovating environmental compliance assurance: Novel insights and approaches from social sciences.
The conference and workshops saw over 60 participants introduced to a large number of subjects related to tools, theory and practice of improving environmental performance. Participants had backgrounds in regulation/enforcement, academia, consultancy and business. The conference consisted of plenary sessions, a keynote panel session, and 5 moderated workshop breakouts.
The conference was sponsored by the Human Environment and Transport Inspectorate in The Netherlands, and the Rotterdam School of Management of the Erasmus University in Rotterdam, and was co-organised by the George Washington University Law School, Environment and Energy Law Program in Washington DC. USA, the US Environmental Protection Agency, INECE and VIDE* in The Netherlands.
Specific Areas of Discussion and Exploration
The conference contained a number of panels and workshops that combined involved more than 26 presentations. These presentations and corresponding papers explored:
- Regulation as a learning system.
- Compliance and enforcement across borders.
- Ethical behaviour.
- Interventions.
- Self-regulation and self-policing.
- Smart Instruments for Public Law Enforcers.
Key Issues and Themes
The conference highlighted the significant progress that has been made in the field of next generation compliance. Equally it suggested that numerous opportunities remained for future work to be conducted in this area, which could lead to even greater efficiency and effectiveness of those compliance and enforcement efforts directed to environmental protection.
A clear thread contained within and across a number of the panels, workshops and discussions was that development of staff, international cooperation, and undertaking and harnessing effective research were critically important. More specifically:
- Staff Development – while next generation compliance has benefited from advances in technological and social science aspects the human aspect and importance of staff development within environmental regulatory agencies should not be overlooked.
- International Cooperation – given the local, national, regional, and international dimensions of environmental compliance and enforcement work it was felt that international cooperation and environmental enforcement networks were vital to achieving environmental protection.
- Undertaking and harnessing effective research – the complexity of issues facing regulators and the fact that they involve economic, social, environmental and political aspects means that robust and reliable research is required to inform regulatory responses.
Additional Information
In total 26 papers/presentations were delivered across a number of subjects related to tools, theory and practice of improving environmental performance. A detailed synopsis of the presentations is available [pdf].
* VIDE is the Dutch professional association for staff involved in the field of supervision, inspection, enforcement and evaluation.

Mutual Fund Industry May Face Uphill Battle in CFTC Challenge
Three Stocks to Buy With 5% Dividend Yield
The mutual fund industry may face an uphill battle in its second challenge of a rule giving commodity regulators greater oversight of funds that trade in gold, oil or other commodities.
Federal appellate judges suggested Monday it might be too early for the industry to challenge the Commodity Futures Trading Commission's rule, since the regulatory burden and costs aren't yet clear. The regulator is requiring mutual funds, which are overseen by the Securities and Exchange Commission, to register with the agency as part of an effort to quantify fund participation in commodity markets and study the need for new rules on fund activities.
"What's the burden?" Judge David Sentelle asked an attorney for the mutual fund industry, suggesting it may be too early in the CFTC's regulatory effort for the industry to argue the agency is overreaching. Judge Sentelle sat on the three-judge panel hearing the case for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.
The judges questioned attorneys on whether it would be more appropriate for the industry to wait and challenge rules that develop later, rather than challenging the registration requirement.
The Investment Company Institute, a fund-industry group, argues that mutual funds are already regulated by the SEC, a separate federal regulator of securities markets and investing activity, so further regulation by the CFTC would be duplicative.
"Every burden placed on these companies adds costs that are then passed on to their shareholders," said Eugene Scalia, a partner at Gibson Dunn & Crutcher LLP, who argued the case for ICI.
CFTC General Counsel Jonathan Marcus said Congress gave the SEC authority over securities markets and the CFTC authority over commodity markets, so as a commodity market regulator the CFTC needs to oversee the players in its markets.
While most mutual funds invest in stocks and bonds, some invest in commodities and other derivatives. The CFTC has argued that mutual funds need to register with the CFTC, so that they can calculate their presence in the market and properly enforce commodity trading laws. The ICI has estimated the rule would affect about 500 funds nationwide, a fraction of the industry's roughly 7,500 funds.
The rule was upheld by a lower court in December 2012.

To be honest red is not my favorite color for myself. I don't think it suits me well. I have red hair and pale skin. I do have some red clothes and bags, but I wear it really rarely. But here is the weird thing... I love to work with red colors. In every collection or project of mine you'll find at least one fire red piece. Maybe it doesn't look good on me, but it looks awesome on my models. Here are some photos from different projects I did in the past...
|"Lust" part of the "Seven deadly sins" project. I'll post the complete collection in one of my next posts.
|"Holly wood" - front view.
|"Holly wood" This dress doesn't have any darts and has only one seam at the back. It took me 2 days to construct this pattern. The dress sits so tight, you can't even wear underwear. :)
|"Alice" This is the first dress I designed at my first semester at the Design School. The theme was empire style and we could only use home deco fabrics. This is what you can do with your blinds and curtains :)
|"Chicago"- inspired by the golden 20s. Second semester at Design School. Took me 2 weeks to crochet it.
