The act of going to a night club or busy bar and scoping out your prey in the shadows. Then, when they least expect it -or when they are at their highest point of intoxication-, you swoop in and get really fashion friendly. Usually the natural habitat of a lurker is around the dancefloor.

Goldman closes on European M&A hat-trick
Goldman Sachs is on course to finish 2013 at the top of the mergers and acquisitions rankings in Europe for the third year running, laying claim to the number one spot in four of the region's six busiest markets.
Europe-targeted M&A volumes stand at $771.6 billion for 2013 to date, surpassing the $755.5 billion figure for the whole of 2012, according to preliminary data from Dealogic. Americas acquisitions into Europe, the Middle East and Africa reached $182.1 billion, up close to a third on 2012 and a record high.
Goldman retains its number one spot in European M&A, taking a 34.6% market share, up from 27% in 2012. The bank also topped the regional standings in 2011 and 2012.
JP Morgan places second, ahead of Morgan Stanley and Bank of America Merrill Lynch, ensuring a US lock-out in the top four positions in Europe.
These rankings echo the global investment banking fee league tables, where the top five positions are held by US banks for the first time since 2009.
Barclays ranks fifth in the European M&A tables, with UBS up from 11 in the rankings to sixth. All six banks can lay claim to working on the biggest deal of the year — Verizon's $130 billion acquisition of the stake it doesn't already own in Vodafone.
Deutsche Bank, which finished in second place last year, slips to seventh, ahead of BNP Paribas, Citigroup and Guggeinheim Partners, which is in the top 10 despite advising on just three deals, one of which was Verizon's blockbuster acquisition.
Goldman Sachs' domination of the European market is evidenced its top ranking in four of Europe's six busiest markets, including the two most active — the UK and Germany, with shares of 56.4% and 49.7%, respectively, in those markets.
It is missing from the top 10 in France and Russia, Europe's third and fourth busiest M&A markets, but sits top in Italy and Spain, and also places top in the Nordic market.
In the global rankings, Goldman Sachs sits top with a 25.2% market share, ahead of JP Morgan and Morgan Stanley. It occupies the number one position in Asia Pacific (ex-Japan) M&A, but is in danger of losing its top spot in the US volume rankings to JP Morgan, which currently has $4.3 billion more worth of deal credit under its belt.

Western South Dakota has a wicked thunder storm Friday evening (Aug. 17th) but I had not idea until I read the local paper this morning that some areas had actually experienced flash floods.
I just sold a manufactured home on a permanent foundation a couple months ago on Ferguson Street in Hermosa and that street was flooded and all the residents were taken to a temporary shelter. I cannot reach my clients by phone or email so I am very anxious to hear from them.
The previous owners of this house were not required to have flood insurance so at the time of this purchase, the insurance company was seeing if there was any way that my clients could also get away from paying the additional $400/year required for flood insurance based on the revised FEMA flood maps. At the time the extra cost seemed quite high and my clients were pretty upset. Thank goodness they were required to get the flood insurance because without it I'm sure they'd be a lot more upset now. That area hasn't flooded in decades so what are the odds that this would happen so quickly after my clients purchase the property. UGH!
Please keep all these families in your prayers!

Miller, Boudreaux united in holy matrimony
During a magnificent sunset on Saturday, October 25, 2008 the sacrament of holy matrimony uniting Victoria "Tori" Rene Miller and
Bryan "Fred" John Boudreaux, Jr. as husband and wife was performed among family and friends.
The breathtaking scenery of the Point Aux Loups Ballroom garden in Iota provided the setting for guest to witness the exchanging of the couple's personally selected Christian wedding vows.
The couple exchanged their rings in the garden gazebo under the old majestic oak trees overlooking the water. On either side of the gazebo were vases of deep purple mums and pedestals topped with large ferns. Alternating plants of purple and yellow mums were placed on each column wall surrounding the wedding's quest area. Finishing the decor were two beautiful ferns atop iron pedestals placed on either side of the guest's entrance. The ballroom also served as the location of the reception that immediately followed.
Reverend Jimmy Broussard, Pastor of First Presbyterian Church officiated the double ring ceremony.
The bride is the daughter of Joseph K. and Cynthia Miller of Crowley. She is the granddaughter of James Lubert, Sr. and Sylvia Miller and Harry L., Sr. and Barbara Courville and the late Betty Landry Courville, all of Crowley.
Victoria is a 2004 graduate of Notre Dame High School and is presently attending McNeese State University where she is pursuing a Bachelor's Degree as a registered nurse. She will be receiving her diploma in December of this year. She is presently employed with the American Legion Hospital in Crowley.
The groom is the son of Bryan John, Sr. and Charlotte Boudreaux of Lake Charles. He is the grandson of A.J. and Lorraine Boudreaux of Westlake and the late Robert and Johnny Mae Johnson.
Fred is a 1995 graduate of Iota High School and a 2002 graduate of ABC School. He is presently employed as a pipefitter with Turner Industries.
Appropriate musical selection were provided by saxophonist Marcus Davis, vocalist Amanda Markson, friend of the bride; and vocalist Randal Rue, cousin of the bride.
Scriptures were read by Caroline Roberts, friend of the bride.
Victoria entered the ballroom on the arm of her father wearing a spectacular strapless gown of satin with an overlay of tulle featuring a fitted silhouette. The lovely creation consisted of a scallop lace neckline and an overall embellishment of lace appliqué. The embellishment was adorned with crystal and glass beading which vertically cascaded down the front and back of the skirt of the gown. The back was completed with covered buttons and a beautiful pleat that flowed into the chapel-length train. The bride wore a pearl and crystal necklace that matched the one worn by her sister who was also her maid of honor. Complementing her neckwear was a pair of pearl earrings and a coordinating bracelet. Her headpiece was a two-tiered veil of solid tulle completed with an ivory scallop lace design which was accented with a Swarovski crystal tiara. She carried a gorgeous collection of iris and wisteria flowers in alluring hues of purple and lavender. The exquisite arrangement was constructed into a beautiful floral cascade accented with reflecting crystals. Entwined within her bouquet was a crystal rosary belonging to her late grandmother, Betty Courville.
In keeping with tradition the bride choose as something old, a heirloom silk handkerchief embellished with appliqués from her grandmother, Sylvia Miller's, wedding dress. The handkerchief was nestled deep into her bridal bouquet. In tradition, the handkerchief was carried by the bride's godmother, Charlotte Miller Foreman, on her wedding day. She choose her wedding dress as something new, a tiara from one of her bridesmaids, Sarah LaBleu, as something borrowed, and as something blue was a McNeese State University themed garter made by the mother of another one of her bridesmaids, Melissa Bullard.
Attending the bride as maid of honor was her sister, Britney Miller. Bridal attendants included Jessica Arabie, sister of the groom; Maggie Miller, Carly Foreman and Elizabeth Rue, cousins of the bride; and Melissa Bullard, Ashley Thevis and Sarah LeBleu, friends of the bride. The bridal party were each attired in a unique personally selected floor-length formal dress in a lovely aubergine tone from the Jordan collection. They each carried a bouquet of bridal white roses and tiny petals of aubergine wisteria with crystal accents. Completing the floral spray was a gold braided ribbon gathering the stems.
Standing as best man was Eric "Bud" LeBleu, friend of the groom. Groomsmen were Donald Arabie, brother-in-law of the groom; Cody Guillory, brother of the bride; Brian Broussard, cousin of the bride; and Jimmy Brown, Brandon Howard, Drake Benoit and Steven "Bubba" Dale, friends of the groom.
Guests were ushered to their seats by Jacob Miller and Luke Foreman, cousins of the bride. The bride's paternal grandmother, Sylvia Miller, was escorted by her grandson Luke Foreman, while her maternal grandmother, Barbara Courville, was escorted to her seated by her step-grandson, Brian Broussard. Victoria's great-grandmother, Beatrice Comeaux, was escorted by her great-grandson, Jacob Miller.
Serving as flower girl was Grace Boudreaux, daughter of the groom. She was precious in an ivory floor-length gown accented with an aubergine colored floral embellishment. Grace was escorted down the aisle by her father carrying an ivory satin basket. Filling her basket was lilac rose petals which she threw as they walked down a runner already covered in yellow rose petals.
Aiden and Daylen Arabie, nephews of the groom; performed the duties of ring bearer.
On her daughter's special day, the mother of the bride, the former Cynthia Courville, was radiant in a shantung mock, two-piece, floor-length dress and jacket in midnight blue. The dress featured accentuations of beading and embroidery which adorned the bodice of the dress and the collar and sleeve cuffs of the jacket. The jacket was closed with a jeweled clasp.
The mother of the groom, the former Charlotte Johnson, was ravishing in a two-piece, ankle-length Georgette original dress and jacket in navy blue. The sheer jacket sported a front ruffle enhanced with a sequin trim.
Both mothers were presented with yellow roses accented with aubergine and gold ribbons.
At the wedding ceremony the couple presented roses to both mothers, followed by a sand ceremony performed by the bride, groom and his daughter, whereby each poured different colored sand into a vase. This action was meant to represent the joining of the three of them as a family.
The couple was introduced as Mr. and Mrs. Bryan Boudreaux, Jr. just as the afternoon darkened and the garden lights began to twinkle.
The spectacular Point Aux Loups Ballroom also served as the reception area for the newly wedded couple and their guests. Each table was decorated with purple and gold flower arrangements and tea lights. The ballroom was accented with beautifully decorated refreshment tables in each of the rooms. Included in the tables' decor were two fountains with one flowing chocolate and the other consisting of wine.
Among the many delicious refreshments served was the bride's cake. The elegant three-tiered white confection was the centerpiece of the bridal table. A gold sheer backing with two pedestals of deep purple mums placed on each side provided for the perfect backdrop. The cake featured embellishments of lace appliqués, pearls and crystals, sprinkled with gold dust. The intricate design was completed with a crystal and pearl tiara. Serving the bride's cake was her godmother, Charlotte Foreman.
The groom's cake was a fishing scene depicting his favorite pastime, fishing with his best man and best friend, Bud. The decor of the cake signifies an attempt to seize the catch of the day, the groom is falling into the water while his best friend is looking on laughing, rather than offering his assistance. Serving the groom's cake was his Aunt Shelia Boudreaux.
As a gift to the bride and groom, the bride's godfather, Lee Courville owner of Images de Vie Studio, provided the wedding photography.
Out of town guest traveled from Texas, Mississippi, Alabama and North Carolina.
Upon returning from a wedding trip to Beaver Creek, Colorado, the couple will reside in Lake Charles.
On the night prior to the wedding a rehearsal dinner was held at Walker's Restaurant in Jennings hosted by the groom's parents. Guests enjoyed a delicious backyard barbecue buffet.

MAUI, Hawaii — The National School Transportation Association (NSTA) addressed a number of critical issues facing the pupil transportation industry at its mid-winter meeting in late January.
Discussion topics included revisions to Head Start transportation regulations, EPA funding for emission reductions, the School Bus Watch program and federal recognition of School Bus Safety Week.
In addition to NSTA members, the meeting was also attended by the presidents of the industry's other national associations — the National Association for Pupil Transportation (NAPT) and the National Association of State Directors of Pupil Transportation Services (NASDPTS).
Both NAPT President Lenny Bernstein and NASDPTS President Pete Japikse confirmed that they are continuing to work with their association counterparts to more fully represent the industry where there are common goals.
The implementation of Head Start transportation regulations was a focal point. The final three provisions — the use of only school buses or multifunction school activity buses to transport students, the use of height- and weight-appropriate child safety restraint systems and the presence of an adult monitor on each bus — were originally to take effect on Jan. 28 but were postponed until June 30. In the interim, Congress is reconsidering the transportation regulations in the wake of complaints from Head Start grantees that they are too costly and operationally restrictive.
Robin Leeds, the NSTA's industry specialist, said the association is preparing a position paper in conjunction with the NAPT and NASDPTS that will be sent to Congress. "The paper will support the requirements as they currently stand," she said.
EPA funding for retrofitting emission-reducing equipment under the Clean School Bus USA program was discussed. In particular, the NSTA expressed concern about how the EPA was going to administer the grant program for 2006. "One concern is that they might draw from the 2005 applicants [who weren't selected to receive a grant] rather than recompeting," Leeds said. Because the 2005 grant eligibility rules were more restrictive than they are for 2006, especially in regard to private bus operators, the NSTA is pushing for the EPA to use a fresh-start competition.
Meanwhile, the NSTA was an active participant in a broad coalition of more than 200 industry, environmental and labor representatives that worked with Senators George V. Voinovich (R-Ohio), Thomas Carper (D-Del.), Johnny Isakson (R-Ga.), and Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) to support full funding for the Diesel Emission Reduction Act (DERA), which was included in the comprehensive energy legislation enacted last year by Congress.
In the White House's budget request released on Feb. 6, President Bush included $49.5 million to fund DERA, passed by Congress in August. This represents almost four times the amount appropriated for clean diesel programs in the current fiscal year.
Bush's budget request combines all diesel reduction programs — including the Clean School Bus USA Program, the Diesel Truck Retrofit and Fleet Modernization Program and the Engine Idling Reduction Program — under the DERA umbrella.
"As pioneers in the effort to reduce diesel exhaust and protect the health and safety of the children we transport every day, we welcome this new funding to help us continue our work and to expand clean air efforts to other diesel users," said NSTA President John Corr. "While $50 million is a good start, we will continue to push for the full $200 million authorized by DERA."
Also discussed at the meeting was the status of the industry's attempt to get Congress to recognize School Bus Safety Week. As of early February, 16 members of the House of Representatives had signed up to co-sponsor the resolution, HR 498. The required number is 50, so the NSTA is urging all members of the pupil transportation community to lobby their House representatives to sponsor the measure.

For more than 80 years, the Altoona Symphony Orchestra has delighted audiences with a variety of musical selections. The upcoming season promises to be no different, but this year has a few new twists.
This season features the symphony's first opera, "Cavalleria Rusticana,'' on Oct. 27, which Maestra Teresa Cheung characterized as "one of the best out there,'' and she likened it to reality shows on TV.
"As a matter of fact, it is the first verismo opera ever created,'' she said. "Sounds like a fancy term but if you have every watched 'reality TV' you will have no problem understanding it. I call it 'reality opera' because it is exactly just that!''

The Altoona Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Maestra Teresa Cheung, will begin its new season with a free concert at 6 p.m. on Sept. 1 at Canal Basin Park in Hollidaysburg.
The season actually opens at 6 p.m. Sept. 1 with a free concert at Canal Basin Park in Hollidaysburg sponsored by the Hollidaysburg Arts Alliance.
The symphony also has a new executive director, Pamela Etters, who is a musician and artist with a degree in fine arts whose murals can be seen in the Altoona area. She has done extensive work in fundraising and working for nonprofit groups, so she said her new job is a natural fit for her.
"This was just the perfect step for me,'' she said. "I'm very passionate about bringing arts to the community.''
On March 2, the symphony will return to the Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament for the second year in a row to accompany the Cathedral Choir and the State College Choral Society in performance of the "Durufle Requiem.'' The choirs will also sing other musical selections.
The main attraction at the Cathedral, in addition to its beautiful setting, is the church's rare pipe organ, said Etters.
"We've actually attracted a lot of people from miles and miles around who've come just to hear that organ,'' she said.
Cheung said she has performed in many churches, including St. Peter's Basilica at the Vatican in Rome. She agreed that people who attend concerts at the Cathedral are drawn there because of the setting and the organ.
"Our audience members that came to our last concert at the Cathedral in Altoona would tell you that there was something extra special about hearing music in the space,'' she said. "There is something that is very spiritual about a place like the Cathedral and what a privilege it is for us to have the opportunity to perform there again!''
Etters said her goal is to have one of the five concerts this year filled to capacity. Usually the symphony performs at the Mishler Theater in downtown Altoona, which seats about 800 people. The symphony's subscription rate is "right on track currently,'' although she'd always like to see more participants, Etters said.
"It's pretty much what we expected, although we have had a few new ones come in,'' she said.
In addition to the traditional holiday concert at Christmastime that will feature students from Frankstown Elementary School and Bellwood-Antis Middle School, performances during the season will focus on such classic composers as Brahms and Schumann.
Kicking off the first concert at the Mishler is the "1001 Nights'' performance on Oct. 6 featuring the music of Ravel and Rimsky-Korsakov. The famous piece, "Scheherazade,'' by Rimsky-Korsakov will paint pictures of Arabian nights in the minds of the audience while the strains of "Ma mere l'oye'' by Ravel will charm them with thoughts of Mother Goose.
"The first concert is about sound and color,'' Cheung said. "Both Ravel and Rimsky-Korsakov are considered superb orchestrators in classical music. Simply put, the audience is going to have a treat with some of the most awesome music written for orchestras!''
The last concert of the season will feature the music of Brahms and Schumann, who was Brahms' musical mentor. Cheung described their relationship as "legendary' 'and said the final concert of the season is about "friendship and inspiration.'' She further explained her reasoning behind her choice of music for the last concert from these two well-known composers.
"It's very exciting to explore the music legacy that has been passed down from one person to another, and how we can find our musical links to the past,'' she said.
Adult tickets are $33 and student tickets are $13. College students must show current ID. Tickets are available online at or at the Mishler Theater box office, 1208 12th Ave., Altoona, Pa., 16601.

I made some kefir cream which was delicious - and kept really well for days.
I don't know how you are SUPPOSED to do it - but I almost filled a jar with thick (double) cream and stirred in a tablespoon of kefir, made using raw organic milk. (The kefir had been made with kefir grains, and had been strained, the grains going back into their jar with more raw milk)
I covered the jar, left it on the counter for 4 - 5 hours, then moved it to the fridge.
It came out awesome - very like sour cream / creme fraiche. Wonderful stirred into soups / sauces.

Today has been filled with much excitement. Helicopters took off shortly after breakfast, around 8:30 am. All those not involved with the flights took to the fifth deck for prime picture taking perches. Both helicopters performed three small test flights, one right after the other, prior to their actual flights. After both helicopters were safely off the ship, Colgate University professor Amy Leventer organized an ice sampling trip out onto the ice flow. She invited most of the day shift personnel, including myself, to participate in the sampling and to have the opportunity to stand on roughly 700 meters of water. Our measurements showed that the ice flow is about 75 cm in thickness with a three to five centimeter layer of snow on top; we also used a hand drill to collect three short ice cores to see the abundance and type of phytoplankton in the ice. All are back on board now, and based on the results from the ice reconnaissance mission and updated satellite imagery, we have decided to head to the western side of the Antarctic Peninsula, where we be in range to fly the helicopters to our target glaciological sites in the Larsen System. En route, we will be re-evaluating our marine geological, biological, and oceanographic goals. Today's helicopter missions proved to be successful as we awaited information on ice conditions. During his National Geographic-documented trip to the southern side of the Sjorgen Fjord via helicopter, Dr. Greg Balco found granite erratics on the mountainside. Additionally, Dr. Martin Truffer and Dr. Erin Pettit completed a velocity/ thickness survey of Röhss Glacier, and back on the ship, we performed water sampling at various depths with a CTD (conductivity, temperature, and depth profiler). At the close of the day, all of us went to secure our labs and personal belongings in anticipation of entering open water in the Bransfield Strait by tomorrow morning.
We spent today backing out of the ice and motoring through the Antarctic Sound and around to the western Antarctic Peninsula. Our transit brought us through some amazing open-water scenery. As we passed through the Bransfield Strait and into the Gerlache Strait, two playful hump back whales accompanied the ship, jumping, turning on their backs, slamming into the water over and over again. All rushed up to the bridge to say hello to our visitors. Thanks to University of Houston undergraduate student Yuribia Munoz, we have captured a picture of one of the whales to share with you. Our decision to transit to the western Antarctic Peninsula is the clear choice in how to use our time on the vessel, as the Larsen System is currently inaccessible due to ice conditions. Although glacier operations will largely remain intact with our new route, moving away from the Larsen system has required the marine geologists and biologists to re-evaluate their goals. Chief Scientist E. Domack held a meeting tonight for all of us to voice our ideas for what the marine geologist and biologists will do on the western side of the Antarctic Peninsula. As a graduate student, I am amazed at the flexibility of the principle investigators and fellow scientists on the ship. Their spirits are still high, and they are prepared to make the most of our current location.
By mid-morning, we were making our way out of the Gerlache Strait and into Flandres Bay. The three Belgians on the ship made it known to all that this area was first scouted by Belgian explorers in the early 1900s and coached us in the appropriate pronunciation of "Gerlache" and "Flandres." Today, we prepared for helicopter operations, but by mid-afternoon, our window of opportunity closed, as the clouds moved too low and inhibited the pilots' visibility. We will try again tomorrow. Although we did not get the glaciologist out on the ice, we continued with marine geology and biology operations on the ship by deploying another CTD in an arm of Flandres Bay, called Etienne Bay. We sampled the water column with the CTD at the back of the bay quite close to the ice front, where the scenery is beautiful. Our location is known to be a hotspot for whale spotting, and sure enough, two to three hump back whales came to check the ship out in the afternoon, and all rushed to snap a picture of them. Tonight also gave us the opportunity to discuss sediment coring procedures for the coming days and weeks. We have plans to use a variety of sediment sampling devices, such as the Kasten core, mega-core, sediment grabs, and the jumbo piston core. Each device is designed for different kinds of sampling procedures. For example, many of the geologists will use the Kasten core to collect sediment for radiocarbon, stable isotope, and grain size analysis as well as other tests, but Hamilton College professor Mike McCormick is keen on using the mega-core to limit the sediment's exposure to oxygen. Soon, I will offer more detail and pictures of the coring procedures as we perform them. Tomorrow, we will try helicopter operations again, and take "Suzee," the Belgian remotely operator vehicle (ROV), for a test swim.
This morning, the weather in Flandres Bay was clear and sunny, and the prospect of getting the helicopters off the ground, one to transport Dr. Erin Pettit and Dr. Martin Truffer to the glacier and another to take Dr. Eugene Domack and Dr. Amy Leventer to a GPS station, was looking good. Helicopter pilot Barry James took a quick flight up to survey the clouds near the drop-off target on the eastern side of the Antarctic Peninsula. It was too cloudy with the limited visibility, and the helicopters were on hold until the weather cleared, which unfortunately never occurred today. When helicopter operations are halted, work on the ship continues. To take advantage of the waiting time, we continued our geological and biological survey of Flandres Bay by casting four more CTDs and dropping the yo-yo camera. The yo-yo camera's name aptly describes how it works. We strap a camera to a metal frame, send it down to about 2 m above the seafloor, and allow it to essentially hop along as we move the ship to take images of the seafloor. Dr. Craig Smith and others wanted to use the yo-yo camera to get an idea about the mega-fauna (i.e. organisms identifiable without magnification) on the seafloor to help plan further sampling goals. As I reported yesterday, the flexibility and continued enthusiasm of the principle investigators motivates us all to do what we can, and we are surely taking advantage of being in Flandres Bay! One step toward planning the rest of our science agenda for the western Antarctic Peninsula requires some background research on fjord biology. We see the opportunity to compare what we find here (in terms of geology and biology) in Flandres Bay, a more mature fjord, to what we hopefully get to study in the Larsen System, a new system that formed since the break-up of the Larsen B Ice Shelf in 2002. In order to get access to the literature, we will be dropping four scientists off at Palmer Station, a U.S. Antarctic Program base about 30 nmiles from our current position, which will take about 3 hours to reach. For the rest of the afternoon and evening, the Belgians tested the ROV with hopes to deploy it tomorrow, and Dr. Ted Scambos and company hosted a "party," complete with snacks and live guitar provided by Dr. Terry Haran, to help assemble some equipment for their fieldwork.
It seems like everyone on the ship starts his/her day with a renewed sense of enthusiasm for what the day may bring—be it taking a sediment core, getting a helicopter successfully off the ship, or sighting whales or a leopard seal. Today, we, especially the marine geologists, were looking forward to recovering a jumbo Kasten core in the Hugo Island Trough (at a water depth of about 650 m). The jumbo Kasten coring device allows us to recover up to 6 m of sediment. Unfortunately, we fell prey to bad weather again, and as in the Drake, most of us retreated to our rooms or the TV lounge to wait it out. Although the weather inhibited any device deployments, the day was not lost! In the morning (at the close of the night shift), we dropped four individuals off at Palmer Station on Anvers Island to conduct a brief literature search on fjord biology. I used the word fjord in yesterday's blog without properly defining it. Fjords are flooded valleys that were carved by glaciers. Examples of mature fjords line the coasts of Norway. We are especially interested in the relatively newly formed fjords on the eastern side in the Larsen System, Antarctica, but until we can get in there, we are making use of our time to better understand the fjords on the western side, which are more developed than on the eastern side. To drop the four researchers off, the ship pulled close enough to Palmer Station, such that a Zodiac, a small motorized air raft that we use for small transits in calm water, met the ship to pick the four up. After the drop, we left the safety of Anvers Island's shadow, and entered rough waters, stirred up by high winds. Because the jumbo Kasten core was unfeasible today, we used our time to fill in the gaps in some of our topographic coverage of the seafloor, and the ROV team worked on "Suzee." Tomorrow is another day, and we will give coring another go.
Mud, mud, and more mud. Yes! We successfully recovered a 4.5 m jumbo Kasten core from the Hugo Island Trough. The waters were a bit calmer than yesterday, so with Chief Scientist E. Domack's urging, we made a go for the core. Observing the deployment and recovery of a sediment core, especially one of this size in these seas, was a bit like being in the peanut gallery during open heart surgery. The orchestrated frenzy started with the diagnosis; Dr. Domack and others identified the site where they wanted the core, based on seismic images of the seafloor that allow us to estimate the thickness of particular sediment units, and with the order, Captain Joe and crew positioned the ship. Next, came the preparatory work; the Raytheon marine technicians, wearing bright orange "float coats" and tethered onto the back deck, rigged the 6-m long coring device, which was loaded with over 1100 lbs of lead weights, and lowered it down with the winch. As the rest of us watched the winch monitor from the navigation table, the core streamed down to the seafloor, covering 650 m in about 20 minutes, and punched a hole in the bottom of the ocean. Caps closed, and the winch started to bring the sediment core up. When the core reached the surface, the Raytheon MTs wrangled it onboard, careful not to dip or twist the barrel. At this time, Dr. Domack and the support team met the core on the deck. Dr. Domack, swift and determined with years of experience, tapped the core and opened the first panel to view the sediment-water interface. The sediment-water interface is the division line between the water and the seafloor sediment, and if the sediment-water interface remains identifiable after the core makes it onto the back deck, the core is considered a success. Dr. Domack approved what he saw, and secured the core by placing a piece of foam at the top. Now, the tricky part. About ten of us maneuvered the long, heavy core from the back deck, through the Baltic room, and into the lab and placed it on the longest table we could rig, although the core still extended beyond the ends of the table. The sediment was now ready to be unveiled for Dr. Domack to describe the sediment and orchestrate the operation. A handful of scientists onboard collected sediment at predefined depth intervals for a slew of analyses, including cesium and radiocarbon dating, diatom and foraminifera (microscopic marine organisms) counting and identification, magnetic susceptibility, x-ray analysis, and pigment analysis. The 4.5 meters that we collected probably represents close to 12,000 years of sedimentation. Apart from the excitement and hard work associated with the recovery and processing of the core, we also deployed a yo-yo camera, and the ROV team continued to work on "Suzee." At the close of the day, we, at least Captain Joe (from Morgan City, Louisiana) and I (now living in New Orleans) were happy to hear that the Saints prevailed.
As the night shifters and the lingering day shifters worked into the evening, we completed sampling the Hugo Trough core around 4 a.m. The recovery of the core was useful scientifically and also provided us with the opportunity to nail down our sampling routine to perfect the process for later cores. Still on the high of a successful recovery, today we turned our focus back to Flandres Bay, where we were a couple of days ago before weather chased us out of the bay. We deployed two more yo-yo cameras as well as conducted four CTD casts. The CTD casts show us (in real time) the temperature, salinity, "cloudiness," dissolved oxygen content, and chlorophyll levels in the water at different depths, from the surface to the bottom of the ocean. We also have the capability to "fire" 24 eight-liter bottles at different depths when we want to collect water samples. The program is usually controlled by Lamont Doherty graduate student Debra Tillinger during the day shift, or her mentor Bruce Huber during the night shift. Tomorrow, we will transit to the Gerlache Strait to conduct a seafloor survey to help us determine our next series of sampling operatives.

taking relacore ?
if you are a person taking relacore , what time of the daylight is best to take them ?
The best time is never. Your are throwing pretty a bit of money away on a product the FDA says is not proven to be not dangerous or effective. The selling is full of half truths and even seem to promote the stuff as a legal "illustrious."
There is FDA action to stop the media hype by Relacore and Cortislim as a result:
There is no magic pill for counterweight loss. Alterations in diet and exercise are required.
Why bother taking it since it's a pure lavish of money.

January is always so hopeful. I love the tenor of this month, of new beginnings. The Seattle weather can challenge this 'dawning' feeling...with its grey shrouded skies; but not today. This morning's 'rosy fingered dawn' was spell bounding, something to rival last night's sunset. Amidst the greyness we find nourishing beauty. On this beautiful dawn our glassblowers returned to the mother ship. Hi Ho, Hi Ho. The New Year maintenance of our equipment is complete thanks to Ryan and other various brawn. It feels like our pulse is back...the din of the music, the furnaces aglow and the marvelous kinetic energy of the glassybaby craft. Welcome back to our team.
I asked Ryan what the line up of colors being made is? She reported:
- seattle sunset
- keith
- dream
- true white
- bedford brown
Our shelves are a bit scanty after a wonderfully busy holiday run. So, Ry's challenge is color priority and production strategy. I love that all of the colors above are in our giving pantheon. The stars of our show are bing made first.
Other New Year minutes...Many organized brides have contacted us with wedding spreadsheets that include a line item named 'glassybaby rental.' The wedding combinations are always dreamy and it is our joy to candlelight various nuptials. In the wedding camp...it has been my supreme pleasure to work with bride to be Emily and by proxy her lucky fiance Jamie. They will wed on the East coast and return to hold a wedding celebration/birthday party for Emily at our Madrona studio after hours. Brilliant. There is even an event planner (dear friend) helping to organize the Madrona fete. We have met and discussed logistics that include lighting glassybaby and where to drape various swaths of organza. The couple were engaged in Italy...so, in homage to the place of their promise...pizza and gelato will feed their guests. Another lovely signature to their event...they are trying to craft a giving aspect to their celebration; therefore glassybaby will pass 10% of their expenses back to the Cancer charity of their choice. Their lives and families have intersected with the profound challenges of cancer. We embrace their giving momentum and we anxiously await their entourage in April.
End note...Dog teaser. There is a new dog in the house. A photo shoot is being scheduled and I promise to debut a photo of Ringo on next week's blog.
Until Next Time, Nicola

Enjoy Holiday Foods and Lose Weight? Your 3-Step Strategy to Avoid Extra Calories at Holiday Parties!
It's a bold and brazen concept, I know, but you can actually lose weight over the holidays. Moreover, it can be done without missing-out on all of the wonderful foods that the season has to offer. And no, you don't have to carry around and whip out your food scale to log everything on your mobile app or food journal at every holiday gathering or New Year's Eve party you attend. So leave your measuring cup at home, and just follow these three simple steps when you are out celebrating this holiday season.
- Check out the Potluck or Buffet table BEFORE getting in line – Doing a recon pass before you get in line at potlucks and buffets helps you avoid front loading when you visit the buffet table. How many times have you gone to a buffet or potluck and noticed that your plate is already full before you are even close to the end of the buffet? If you check out everything first, you can be selective and save space on your plate for the foods you really want to eat.
- Leave space between the foods on your plate – By leaving space between the foods on your plate you reduce the amount of space that is available on it. Less space for food on your place equals less food on your plate and inevitably in your belly. Take heed though, this is MUCH more difficult than it sounds. So make sure you do a thorough information gathering recon pass as advised in step 1. If you feel that you aren't being selective enough, then just take sample size portions to limit the amount of food on your plate. This way you can enjoy all the foods you want and feel good about how much you ate.
- Limit the amount of calories in your beverages – Cocktails are a big part of many social events and holiday parties are no exception. Though it is always best not to consume any alcoholic beverages, if you are of age and choose to have a cocktail or two, it is important to remember that sugary drinks like margaritas, daiquiris and eggnog can have over 600 calories per pint![i] So opt for drinks made with club soda or diet soft drinks that have no extra calories added from sugar.
By following these 3-steps, you can go to any holiday party this year with a plan to enjoy the evening and your favorite holiday foods, and not worry about overindulging.

I posted my long blathering take on the series on my craptastic infotainment blog ( http://jerseycitydes...-1-tonight.html ) but in a nutshell, if the Rangers can't forecheck the Rangers got nuthin. Once the Devils hit the shutoff valve on the Florida powerplay there hasn't really been an area they've struggled in. They're faster, they have more scoring depth up front and yes, guys who can create shots when the Broadway Blues pack it tight unlike most of the Sens and Caps.
Unlike many the Devils aren't intimidated by MSG. It is an entire franchise and fanbase built on hating the Rangers. It is. There is a guy who whistles at set intervals at the Prudential Center and ends with the old cavalry shrill Da da da duh da da RANGERS SUCK (and they've added Flyers swallow to that ditty after the Rangers part, classy bunch that they are). The Rangers could be playing in Vancouver and yet they'll be chanting Rangers suck in Newark. Remember how we Wings fans used to laugh at the Nordilanche fans in Denver while playing Phoenix would chant "Red Wings suck"? Devils players and fans are not intimidated by the Rangers but they do have one unhealthy obsession with them.
Yes Lundqvist is better (Though Brodeur has a 2.05 GAA which isn't horrid) but he will need to be. He also gets peeved and you at times can get in his head. Nothing phases Brodeur, I'm convinced of this. He looks the exact same getting shelled as posting a 40 save shutout.
Yeah, I said it, Tony Soprano whacks Phil Leotardo once more. Every game is sold out but I'm going to go Saturday afternoon with second row seats in the corner to Brodeur's right (1st and 3rd). I can't wait. When you can't have the Wings this far away nasty rivalries like this must do.

SLOPESTYLE: Now an Official Olympic Sport
On July 5th 2011, the sport of Slopestyle became an official Olympic sport and will be included in the 2014 Olympic Winter games in Sochi, Russia.
Ski and snowboard terrain park enthusiasts can now take their tricks to a new level with the potential to compete in future Olympics.
Slopestyle is a combination of jumps, rails and other features, and points are added up based on amplitude and originality. Big White's TELUS Terrain Parks offer terrain for all abilities with its small, medium, large and extra-large park lanes so all skiers and riders can start working their way to an Olympic ski and snowboard slopestyle dream.
Cathy Astofooroff, the Executive Director of the BC Snowboard Association commented, "The first FIS sanctioned Slopestyle in Canada was held at Big White's TELUS Park by the BC Snowboard Association on January 9th, 2010. Big White has been a long-time supporter of Slopestyle, hosting BC Snowboard Provincial Series events in TELUS Park since 2005. With the help of Big White, BC Snowboard provides a fun competition atmosphere to athletes of all ages, as well as a competition stream for the more serious athlete looking to gain valuable FIS points. BC Snowboard Slopestyle events are dual sanctioned, meaning athletes can earn FIS points as well as TTR points."
Flynn Seddon, Director of Terrain Parks and Events at Big White added, "It's great that all kids can now connect riding in the park and doing the thing they love with an Olympic sport. Slopestyle competitions have been under way for years but now these kids can set their sights on the ultimate goal, and for some, and that's representing their country at the Olympics."
Amazing opportunities for new generation terrain park skiers and Snowboarders are happening this winter at Big White's TELUS Terrain Park. Come and session the park and stop in and take part in one of our Weekend Rail jams or one of BC Snowboards provincial slopestyle competitions.
The 2012 BC Snowboard Provincial Series kicks off in TELUS Park with the first Slopestyle doubleheader event on January 7th & 8th, 2012.

Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Mobile, spoke in Birmingham this morning about his plan to create portable retirement accounts for American workers.
Speaking at a Congressional Forum of the Birmingham Regional Chamber of Commerce, Sessions said Americans are spending more than they are saving and young people are not educated about savings.
"Something's not going well for middle America," he said. "It was felt in this last election. There's unease and instability out there."
Under Sessions' proposal, every newborn in the United States would have a Portable Lifelong Universal Savings Account, or PLUS Account, opened for them starting in 2008.
The federal government would start off the account with $1,000. Once the individual is employed, the account would grow with employee and employer contributions.
The proposal also calls for establishing PLUS Accounts for all working U.S. citizens under the age of 65, starting in 2009.

- During biblical times, Oman was one of the richest countries in the world: its wealth came from the trade in incense, specifically Frankincense.
- Omani men can often be found wearing the traditionally curved dagger, known as khanja.
- During the 18th century, the Omani capital of Muscat developed into a wealthy crossroads of trade between India and East Africa and even gained political control of several East African territories, including the legendary island of Zanzibar.
Living in Oman Teaching English...Oman boasts over 2,700 km of sandy beaches- and that is just the beginning. Vast expanses of sand and echoing mountain ranges leave intrepid travelers plenty of room to explore. Visit a sea turtle nesting site, stop by one of the bustling port cities, or simply take in the pristine landscapes around you. This combination of natural beauty, as well as a rich Bedouin history and maritime traditions, makes Oman a unique and appealing destination. Only within recent years was it made possible to drive on sealed roads to most towns across the country. That said, Oman's tourist sector is growing rapidly, and the demand for English teachers is at an all-time high.

Canadian city tackles contaminated sites
Steven D. Schiefner
City Solicitor
City of Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan
The City of Moose Jaw is located in Western Canada and, like most industrialized cities, has experienced its share of environmental contamination in the past. Some of this contamination has resulted from errors or negligence of someone. However, a significant portion of the contaminated sites in the City have resulted from the utilization of practices and/or equipment that, while acceptable in their day, clearly were inappropriate and, through the passage of time, have proven to have negative environmental consequences.
Besides the obvious consequences for the environment, one of the additional problems with a contaminated site is the resulting economic stagnation of the property. Unless the property can continue to be used for its original purpose (as a refinery, processing plant, rail yard, etc.), a contaminated site is, for the most part, undevelopable. The presence (or even the potential) of contamination has proven to have a profound effect on both the usability and marketability of the impugned property. For example, lenders now routinely require environmental certificates (i.e. to confirm absence of environmental contamination) before advancing any mortgage funds on a property. Potential purchasers are reluctant to acquire title to a contaminated property and are routinely advised by legal counsel to stay well clear of contaminated sites, including for purposes of mere investigation. Essentially, contaminated properties have become unmarketable and undevelopable.
As a consequence, many contaminated sites are abandoned by their owners. Certainly, no new development is taking place on any of these properties and any new investment is largely out of the question. Unless there happens to be some ongoing business potential not necessarily incompatible with the state of contamination, these properties tend to experience a rapid decline. Buildings and improvements are not repaired; routine maintenance is uneconomical; and, without regular activity on the site, the properties often become unsightly and unattractive.
Furthermore, as the properties fall into economic dormancy, municipal property taxes are unpaid and tax arrears accumulate. However, because of the potential liability associated with contaminated sites, municipalities have, for the most part, refused to take any form of tax title proceedings against contaminated sites. As a result, outstanding tax arrears continue to accumulate quickly which outstrip any market value remaining in the property. The result is that each year municipalities levy taxes on properties that they know will never be collected, causing a distortion in the tax roll. This distortion in the tax roll causes problems for not only the municipality but also every other taxing authorities for which the municipality levies taxes (such as the school boards, libraries, etc.).
Clearly, contaminated properties represent a layering of concerns from a municipal perspective, ranging from public safety to economic development to tax policy. The multifaceted nature of the problem has provoked a multifaceted motivation for municipalities to find ways to address contaminated sites. The City of Moose Jaw recently undertook a novel (and arguably more direct) approach to this problem by deciding to "clean up the mess," so to speak. Early indications are that this new approach has been successful and other municipalities are asking "how we did it!"
The first step was to secure financing. Obviously, remediation of contaminated sites can be expensive. Fortunately, the City of Moose Jaw was successful in securing $100,000 in seed funding from the Government of Canada through one of its regional economic development agencies. The next step was to negotiate a letter of understanding with the Provincial Minister of the Environment, to limit the City's potential exposure to unlimited liability related to the cost of cleanup. The essence of this letter of understanding was to acknowledge that the City of Moose Jaw was not the polluter and should not be treated as such. Rather, the City's role with respect to these properties could best be described as that of an environmental "Good Samaritan."
The City agreed to demolish all uneconomical buildings and structures, to remove and decommission any remaining underground storage tanks, and to remove and treat any contaminated soil found directly on the property. The Minister of the Environment, on the other hand, agreed that, if the City fulfilled its obligations under the agreement, the Minister would not hold the City responsible for any contamination that had escaped from the properties in question (i.e. to adjacent properties) or which had travelled beyond the depth of reasonable excavation (i.e. 10 feet in vertical depth). Finally, the City of Moose Jaw agreed that, as the sites were remediated (cleaned), they would be marketed for sale and the sale proceeds will be reinvested into the cost of decommissioning other contaminated sites in future phases of the project.
One of the rather unique (and yet fundamental) premises of this environmental cleanup project was the agreement of all of the parties, including the environmental regulatory agencies, that there would no obligation on the City to guarantee that all of the contaminated sites would be fully remediated or that all of the contaminated material would be removed. Rather, the City merely agreed to clean the sites, on a best efforts basis, within specified perimeters.
All parties acknowledged that, even if remediation were not completely successful, the City's efforts would not be in vain. Firstly, the sites would be cleaner than they were before the project began. Secondly, the nature and extent of the contamination will be better understood. Thirdly, depending on the level of residual contamination, the property could still be marketable for sale (albeit, as a site still subject to some residual contamination). Finally, even if the properties could not be sold (because of the residual contamination), the sites could still be used for other activities not necessarily incompatible with the level of residual contamination (urban green space, parking lots, etc.).
Obviously, site selection was a critical component of the project. Only properties with relatively minor forms of pollutants (petroleum products) were considered. Phase 1 environmental assessments (i.e. record/historical searches) were undertaken of all properties. However, no direct subsurface sampling (i.e. bore hole testing) was undertaken. Since the City's liability was already limited, clinical knowledge with respect to the range and extent of the pollution was not particularly helpful. Rather, such funds were better invested directly in cleanup efforts.
Another important aspect of Moose Jaw's project was the use of city forces to complete as much of the actual cleanup work as possible. An environmental consultant was retained only for the purpose of site supervision and independent verification of soil sampling.
To date, two of the three sites have been remediated. Site #1 was discovered to have four remaining underground storage tanks, with only localized contamination involving approximately 250 cubic yards of soil. The tanks were decommissioned and the contaminated soil removed and transported for decontamination. The entire site was cleaned up within 21/2 days, with the total cost being approximately $21,000 (Canadian), which included engineering and demolition costs.
Site #2 was discovered to have three underground tanks, all of which had experienced significant product loss. Site #2 was found to have moderate levels of contamination throughout most of the property, including free phase product at more than one location. The tanks were decommissioned and approximately 3,300 cubic yards of soils were removed for treatment (i.e. 13 times the volume of site #1). The total cost to clean up Site #2 came in at approximately $56,000 (Canadian) and took approximately 121/2 days to complete.
Simply put, Site #1 turned out to be a "best-case" scenario, with Site #2 being closer to a "worst-case" scenario. Nonetheless, both sites are now clean and marketable for sale and, on average, the project appears to be still on budget. At both locations, soil sampling was conducted by an independent environmental consultant, with copies of all test results and closure reports being provided to the adjacent property owners and appropriate environmental officials. Finally, significant interest has been expressed in both properties by potential purchasers. Site #1 has been sold by way of public tendering for the sum of $22,695, with the proceeds of the sale to be reinvested into the project.
Moose Jaw's experience in "cleaning up the mess" appears to have been cost-effective in both a best- and worst-case scenario. More importantly, however, Moose Jaw's approach has been entirely successful in limiting the City's exposure to environmental liability.
