Everyone needs to be aware of the facts presented in this video. While it contains a pitch for investing in gold and silver, the main message is the incontrovertible fact that the days of dollar dominance are over and the impact of hype-inflation on Americans will soon become severe. The middle class is about to be wiped out financially. It's time to use our dollars to support the emergent Butterfly economy and withdraw from the caterpillar economy.
The End of Money…
My latest book, The End of Money and the Future of Civilization , is now available.

Larimer County companies break food bank fundraising record
- published_in
- Today's News
The nonprofit, announcing Thursday the results of its 2012 Corporate Food Fight, said it was the most successful fundraising campaign in the organization's 28-year history. The support will provide the equivalent of 625,000 pounds of food, or 500,000 meals, for hunger relief in the county.
The Corporate Food Fight pitted 21 organizations throughout the county in a competition to donate the most food and money.
NVIDIA won the Top Fundraiser Award and Overall Champion designation. The company, with 27 employees locally, donated $37,709, the most the food bank has ever received during the fundraiser.
Poudre Valley Health System won the Top Foodraiser Award by contributing more than 5,379 pounds and $16,059. Kevin Unger, Poudre Valley Hospital CEO and a food bank board member, danced in a tutu to reward staff for reaching its fundraising goal.
Woodward Inc. earned the Total Points Award by donating 368 pounds and $14,943.
AMD won the Impact Award by donating $12,819 and 164 pounds of food. The food bank honored Tolmar and Intel as Most Valuable Runner-ups. Each company donated more than $6,000.
Crop Production Services won the Newcomer Award with its contribution of $4,325 and 750 pounds of food.
"The outpouring of generosity and support by organizations in our community and their employees is astounding," Heather Buoniconti, development director of the food bank, said in a statement.

What is in this article?:
- Stabenow: farm bill impasse 'absolutely unacceptable'
- Negotiations, opportunities
- Stabenow pushes House leadership to allow vote on farm bill.
- "I don't care if there's eight (legislative) days left" before current law expires at the end of September. "We only need a couple in the House to get this done. I can't imagine that creating economic certainty for rural America and comprehensive disaster assistance within that farm bill isn't a priority for the House." -- Stabenow.
Having again failed to schedule floor time for a new farm bill despite expiration of current law on Sept. 30, House leadership is unlikely to be moved to action by a fellow lawmaker's scathing critique. But that didn't stop Michigan Sen. Debbie Stabenow, chairwoman of the Senate Agriculture Committee, from making such a harsh assessment during a Tuesday press call.
"We need to get (a new farm bill) done," said Stabenow. "If we aren't able to get this done we're looking at a Depression-era farm policy that's obviously extremely outdated: antiquated subsidies, price controls and so on, and market confusion that (would) come from that."
For more, see here.
The current impasse, she said, "is absolutely unacceptable. We passed a bipartisan (farm) bill in the Senate in June. The House Agriculture Committee passed a bipartisan (farm) bill in July.
"In my time here – this is my fourth farm bill – I've never seen a situation where a bipartisan bill has come out of committee and wasn't taken up on the floor. The House leadership, for whatever reason, has decided they won't bring this up on the floor."
While it is true there are only a few legislative days left before the looming deadline, Stabenow said that would be enough if the House would move. She also dismissed calls for an extension of current law.
The House "will pass their continuing resolution this week. My question is: what's more important to do next than the farm bill? I don't think they have anything else substantive on their agenda for September.
"In my judgment those who don't want reform would just as soon kick the can down the road and do some kind of long-term extension. That is something I do not support. … This isn't about an extension (of current law). We need to pass a farm bill and they have plenty of time to do it.
"I don't care if there's eight (legislative) days left. We only need a couple in the House to get this done. I can't imagine that creating economic certainty for rural America and comprehensive disaster assistance within that farm bill isn't a priority for the House."
For more farm bill coverage see here.
Stabenow characterized the House's disaster package -- which aims to help drought-struck ranchers and was passed just prior to Congress' August recess – as inadequate.
"At this point, we need a farm bill that includes comprehensive disaster assistance, which we have. Ours is paid for within our farm bill. … (The House's) disaster bill doesn't help every farmer who has had a loss. It does nothing for dairy in terms of changing policy. It doesn't address fruit losses we've seen from freezes. It's not acceptable."
The Senate farm bill "has more disaster relief. We have long-term certainty in our bill…
"At this time, it doesn't appear they're even interested in doing a comprehensive disaster bill. We're hearing from (agriculture and commodity) groups that they want (disaster assistance) in the context of a farm bill. … It's very, very clear that where we need to focus is getting a farm bill done as soon as possible."

Tip/Waist/Tail: 158-126-148
Lengths: 176, 186
"Perfect," said one tester. "Fat-ypus has done its homework." That's an especially telling response considering we skied this 126-millimeter fatty on a dust-on-crust day. Unlike many in its size range, this supremely versatile powder ski is perfectly happy—and has a talent for—carving on groomed snow. And we can vouch for its powder chops too, having previously skied it in the megadeep when its rocker and surface area provided unreal maneuverability and float. We tested the version with rockered tip and tail, but the 186 length also comes in a straight-tail version for chargers who want a directional ski with a more supportive backseat.

"G'day to all the good folk at Catholic Answers. Words cannot express the invaluable service you provide to the world. Your faith tracts are fantastic and should be a must-read. Catholics need to be equipped with the history and the truth."

"Where the bishop is, there is the community, even as where Christ is, there is the Catholic Church."
~ Ignatius of Antioch (Smyrn., viii, 2) circa A.D. 110, laid down this principle on true union with the Church, versus schism; all the more impressive because his casual use of the word "Catholic" demonstrates the widespread acceptance of the term at a very early date.

A funny!!
Ok, so not related to baseball or my novel, but I just posted a video on my author blog, and boy did it make me laugh. (For all interested, what follows the video is the hilarious and embarrassing story of my first reading! Make sure you read to the end for the best part.)
By the way, you all know that my novel is really, really good right? Funny, page-turning, and so far (thankfully!) much beloved by readers.
Yes, my audience is primarily women, but if you're a guy, I guarantee you that your wife/girlfriend/sister/mom/cousin/aunt/etc. will love receiving a copy as a gift. And so far the guys who've read it have been surprised at how much they enjoy the novel!
Come on, support a Mets fan!! (And a superfan, at that!)

I hate to admit this being a red sox fan and metss fan.But I think pedro is better thann beckett.GO mets
OMG, that was just cruel. So the woman has pickle phobia and Maury made her go to a pickle factory. Let's see if we can scare the **** out of her! She hates pickles! She's caught in a pickle! Hey, let's put someone who's afraid of spideys in a spidey-infested place and watch them freak out on camera. TV!
I just removed **** from the profanity filter. But I left pickle in.
The mets better not let us down tonight!!!!!!!GO PEDRO!!
Novel, novel, novel. I'm impressed. You managed to mention your book about eight times in a three paragraph blog. All kidding aside, maybe I should learn to promote myself a bit better, then my book "Breaking Balls" (AKA "The Book That No One Bought") would've done a bit better. I hope yours does well anyway.
The PRINCE OF NY
You twisted my arm — I have to buy your book!
I read your comment on my blog. Omar Minaya is the best thing for the Mets. So, don't worry and keep singing "Meet the Mets" because they will be in the World Series!
Take care and great blog! Keep writing away, very impressed!!!
She better not look at this link that I just stumbled across:

I will keep saying this: Why trade anyone right now without giving another coach a shot at managing this team??? We have too much talent to just give up all because Antoni can't figure it out. He's not a coaching GOD. Perhaps someone else with a different philosophy can get better results here.
I just don't understand why people want to break up a talented roster before at least exploring other coaching options first. Melo and Amare have always played as the #1 options. In Amare's case he was the primary recipient to Nash's passes in PHX. Now they are just glorified role players and the just can't adapt to that. It has to be difficult for them not knowing when their next shot will come and when it finally does their always expected to be great and in rhythym.

I've been wondering why our citizens and recent community people who have moved here due to our oil and gas boom must go to other counties like Bee and Wilson to get their drivers licenses renewed or changed?
It must be as frustrating to them as it has been for me to have to do so.
I realize that many may do this or try to do this online but for some of us it's not possible to do so. In fact, at my recent visit to the Bee County DMV, I was told that now all must come to a DMV to get any of this done.
So, who do we contact with the Texas Department of Public Safety to find out what we must do to get a local DVM in Karnes County?
Any information you can find out about this will be greatly appreciated.

Uninformed publicAugust 13,2014
A democracy such as the one we cherish here in the United States performs most effectively when the citizens it serves are well informed about the issues of the day.
Thus, those in charge of the countrys school systems, public or private, are responsible for far more than simply preparing young people for rewarding (financially, especially) careers, although at times it appears many parents think that should be their main purpose.
For our nations sake, our young people must also be prepared to contribute to the preservation and yes, even the improvement, of our precious democracy.
Students who have been taught how to think clearly and, it is hoped, analytically, will not only be better prepared for a career in whatever field they choose (or, by sheer chance, find themselves in), but also to be good citizens capable of making informed decisions on Election Day.
In todays complex and risk-ridden world, it is increasingly important that students be encouraged to develop an interest in and an understanding of the world that lies far beyond their personal experience. Yet there are worrisome signs that this is not happening to the degree that will ensure the long-term success of the United States in such a world.
Columnist Charles Blow, writing in The New York Times this week, lamented the lack of knowledge shown by the American public at a time when half the world is in turmoil and when decisions made by our political leaders have such far-reaching consequences.
Blow cited the thoroughly depressing answers to a new survey (by NBC News and the Wall Street Journal) of the American peoples knowledge of how their leaders are dealing with the multiple crises afflicting our world today.
Whether it is the ruthless behavior of the Islamic jihadists in Iraq and Syria, the bitter struggle between Ukraine and Russia or even the seemingly never-ending hostility between Israelis and Palestinians three hugely important and highly publicized conflicts the surveys results were worrisome.
At least 32 percent of the respondents to the survey said they didnt know enough to have formed an opinion about these topics. In fact, 42 percent confessed to their ignorance of the situation in Syria.
More Americans need to be more engaged, because these conflicts are complicated, Blow wrote. There are no easy answers. Sometimes there will be no clear choices between good guys and bad guys but only choices among lesser demons ... sometimes nobility and savagery coexist.
In Blows view, we have a responsibility to stay abreast of the conflicts in the world so that we can support or reject our leaders efforts to navigate them.
Absent this awareness, he continued, it becomes inevitable that the war machine and warmongers who have never seen a fight they didnt want to join are ceded more power.
President Barack Obama is being criticized for his limited response to the advances of the Islamist extremists in Iraq and Syria.
Is the criticism fair? Or might those who advocate a greater American intervention be arguing on behalf of their own partisan political interests?
(There arent always easy answers to such questions. For example, is Hillary Clintons very visible disagreement with Obama on the intervention issue designed to enhance her own chances of succeeding him, or is it genuine?)
Whatever our politics, we must at least make an effort to know enough about the issues to take a position, Blow commented.
Hes right. If the American people are well informed, their opinions will matter and when they cast their ballots, they will do so wisely.MORE IN EditorialsProtesters converged on a bank in Montpelier early this week to show their solidarity with the...

State Assessment and Accountability Task Force Seeks Input on Draft Assessment Proposal
Further information: 217/782-4648
After four public hearings and four day-long meetings, the Assessment and Accountability Task Force, created in September by State Superintendent of Education Robert E. Schiller, is asking for public input on a draft assessment proposal.
Schiller assembled the Task Force to make recommendations for bringing Illinois into compliance with the new federal No Child Left Behind Act and to assure that Illinois' assessment and accountability system provides useful information to schools, supporting their efforts to improve student achievement of the Illinois Learning Standards.
Comments and suggestions on the draft proposal may be submitted by December 6 to the Illinois State Board of Education, ATTN: Assessment and Accountability Task Force, 100 North First Street, Springfield 62777, or by fax to 217/524-4928 or email to email@example.com.
The Task Force has scheduled an additional public hearing December 2 in Galesburg at the High School Media Center, 1135 West Fremont Street. The full Task Force is scheduled to meet November 18 from 10:00 A.M. to 3:00 P.M. in Springfield in the State Board Room at 100 North First Street and December 10 from 10:00 A. M. to 3:00 P.M. in Naperville at the North Central Regional Education Laboratory, 1120 East Diehl Road. Additional meetings will be scheduled as needed to complete recommendations for consideration by the General Assembly in the session that begins in January.
Assessment Proposal
The Assessment and Accountability Task Force is charged to develop an appropriate, high quality statewide K-12 assessment system, based on the Illinois Learning Standards. The statewide assessment system shall have a high level of credibility, reliability, and validity and provide continuity from the current assessment system. The system must provide timely results (prior to the end of the school year) that are meaningful and educationally useful for educators, parents and the broader community. This system will place Illinois in compliance with the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 and create a useful tool to continuously improve student learning in relation to the Illinois Learning Standards. With this charge, the task force members' sense of direction is outlined in the text below and the following chart.
To accomplish the above purposes, it is proposed that:
The Assessment and Accountability Task Force members will remain as technical/policy advisors so that the upcoming events (January-July 2003) will be reviewed by the task force prior to decision points.
Chart of Subject Matter and Grade-level Assessment Proposal
* In order to hold all schools accountable, school buildings which have second grade as their highest grade and are Title I funded must offer a standard assessment as required by the Illinois State Board of Education.
** The Prairie State Achievement Examination (PSAE) is given at grades 11 in the noted subject areas. One component of the PSAE is the ACT; another is the WORK KEYS.
*** The writing assessment shall be sequenced at grades 3, 4, 6, 8, 10 (voluntary), and 11. Grade 3 students will write one expository essay; grade 4 students will write one essay in either the expository or persuasive mode; grades 6 and 8 students will write two essays in the expository, persuasive or narrative mode. Tenth grade students on a voluntary basis will write two essays in the expository, persuasive or narrative mode. Grade 11 students will write as part of the PSAE.
**** The Explore Test and the Plan Test are preparatory tests for the ACT. Both are broad tests of student learning, and assess students in reading, English, mathematics and science. The Explore Test is shown on the chart as voluntary at both grades 8 and 9. The intent is to allow school districts to decide which grade level would best fit the needs of their students. Some may choose to give the test at grade 8 for diagnostic purposes. Some may choose to give the test at grade 9 to fit into their high school program. The student should not take the same test in both grades 8 and 9. The Plan Test would be given voluntarily at Grade 10 to prepare for the ACT. These tests would be offered for local choice, to be used on a voluntary basis and at no cost to districts.

Western Digital has refreshed the VelociRaptor lineup of high-end hard disk drives (HDDs) designed for performance enthusiasts. The new family of hard drives with 10 000rpm spindle speed now includes three models and utilizes the latest technologies, such as advanced format with 4KB sectors and other.
The new WD VelociRaptor (DHTZ- and HHTZ-series) hard drives are likely based on one or two 500GB 2.5" platters and provide 250GB, 500GB or 1TB capacities. The novelties boast with 10 000rpm spindle speed, Serial ATA 6Gb/s interface, 64MB of cache as well as advanced format technology that enabled increased areal densities and thus boosts performance. As previously, the VelociRaptor features NoTouch ramp load technology, IcePack mounting frame, pre-emptive wear leveling tech and so on. The manufacturer declares 200MB/s sustained host to drive transfer speed, around 3ms latency and up to 5.8W power consumption.
"WD is committed to providing customers with the best performing and most reliable SATA hard drives and our WD VelociRaptor family of drives underscores that promise. With ever-increasing demand for greater capacity, the new 1TB WD VelociRaptor drive delivers the ultimate combination of speed and storage for the power user," said Darwin Kauffman, vice president and general manager of WD's enterprise storage.
WD VelociRaptor hard drives are available now at select distributors, resellers and e-tailers, and come with a five-year limited warranty. Manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) for the WD VelociRaptor 1TB (WD1000DHTZ) is $319.99, the 500GB version (WD5000HHTZ) is $209.99 and the 250GB version (WD2500HHTZ) is $159.99.
Given the fact that WD's VelociRaptor still does not have direct rivals on the market of consumer hard drives, the new family will compete mostly against solid-state drives, which offer better transfer speeds as well as lower latencies, but cannot provide 1TB capacity for $320. It remains to be seen how popular the new family of VelociRaptor drives will be.

DALLAS — With its light-filled open spaces, massive windows, and wood-lined floors, the Nasher Sculpture Center feels like the kind of place where visitors should whisper, or maybe meditate. Its director, Jeremy Strick, speaks quite softly indeed while walking through the airy corridors. It is difficult to imagine anything disturbing this serene, Renzo Piano-designed building or its eminently even-tempered director. But then, you look up.
Strick is currently embroiled in a bitter dispute with the park's next-door neighbor, Dallas's Museum Tower, a shiny luxury condominium rising high above the skylit Nasher. Reflections cast by the tower's deliberately reflective surface — which are 200 percent more reflective than was permitted in a now-expired agreement between the original landowner and developer — are so intense that they are threatening the art on view at the Nasher.
The effects are dramatic: Moving forward, the museum will not be able to install "anything polychrome, or anything with pigment that may be damaged by excessive light," according to Strick. Almost a third of the Nasher's permanent collection is comprised of paintings or drawings, which are now too delicate to go on view. "It will change our program and our business," Strick told ARTINFO on a recent trip to Dallas. "At this point there are shows we can't schedule, and works of art that won't go on view."
Already, the building has forced the museum to make major changes. Perhaps the most substantial occurred last year, but has been scarcely reported until now: James Turrell's skyspace "Tending (Blue)," one of the institution's signature sculptures, had to be closed permanently at the request of the artist after the rising Museum Tower impeded its uninterrupted view of the sky. "The whole idea of a skyspace is that you look up and see the sky, and see the colors and textures as the sky changes," said Strick. "In effect, that work of art no longer exists."
In response to the new atmospheric conditions generated by the shining Museum Tower, Turrell has designed a new skyspace on paper with a radically different shape, but the museum estimates that it will need more than $1.5 million to realize the work. In early negotiations, the Museum Tower expressed interest in contributing to the bill, but even those discussions have since taken a backseat to more pressing concerns about the building's reflective surface, people familiar with the negotiations said.
The Nasher was also forced to draw a shade over the roof of the gallery that houses its current exhibition, "Elliott Hundley: The Bacchae" to protect the Los Angeles artist's delicate assemblages, which incorporate photos and print clippings, from the beaming rays now flooding the Nasher's galleries. "The gallery is dark now," said Strick. Earlier this year, Picasso's painting "Nude Man and Nude Woman" (1971) had to be removed from display at the Nasher to protect it from direct sunlight.
How does a museum go from being protected from direct sunlight to being fried by it? Piano's patented honeycomb-patterned sunscreen, which runs along the Nasher's roof, is designed at a precise angle to absorb the maximum amount of soft, full-spectrum sunlight. In the afternoons, when the hot Dallas sun beams down at the shiny Museum Tower, it ricochets off the surface and straight into the building and its neighboring sculpture garden.
The architect of the Museum Tower is currently assessing possibilities to tweak the building. Renzo Piano, for his part, told D Magazine that the current situation "absolutely insane."
"It would have been difficult to create a design that would have been more harmful to the Nasher," said Strick. "To not have thought about the context goes against everything that architecture is supposed to do."

The first 100 days of Nancy Pelosi's reign of error as speaker of the House have come and gone. Several times over, actually.
And what does Congress have to show for it? Little to nada, legislatively speaking, and even lower public approval ratings than the besieged President Bush.
Not that we're complaining. Most of what Pelosi and congressional Democrats want to do for Americans — or is it to Americans? — sends shivers down the spines of those of us who still believe in limited government, low rates of taxation and a regulatory rollback.
That the first 100 days has been a flop is a blessing, in our view. And it will be a double blessing if gridlock continues, given that neither party is inclined to rein-in the leviathan, but instead seek to tame it for their own ends.
Pelosi marked her meaningless first six months as speaker recently, at a press event that felt more like a wake than a revival. Rather than shouldering the blame for diverting Congress from more mundane business into an excessively shrill effort to undermine the president and the war in Iraq, Pelosi chalked it up to "the obstructionism of the Republicans in the United States Senate."
Senate Republicans have served as a major speed bump. But the techniques the new minority is using were pioneered by Democrats when they were the minority.
"The Democrats in their years in the minority made a filibuster-proof 60-vote supermajority — rather than a 51-vote simple majority — the threshold needed to pass any legislation in the Senate," The San Francisco Chronicle noted in a recent piece. "Democrats routinely blocked all but the most noncontroversial bills. … Republicans complained at the time, but many of them are happy now."
Added Julian Zelizer, a history professor at Boston University:
"The Republicans are doing what the Democrats did. They're using the power of the Senate filibuster, and the power in the House when you have narrow majorities, to make a do-nothing Congress — even when there's a lot of issues on the table, even when there's a lot of interest in accomplishing things."
But accomplishing what, exactly? That's the critical question. We'll take a "do-nothing Congress" over a "do-everything-wrong Congress" any day.

Ana Meza, 16, plays a violin made of recycled materials during a practice session with "The Orchestra of Instruments Recycled From Cateura" on Dec. 11 outside Asuncion, Paraguay.
CATEURA, Paraguay -- The sounds of a classical guitar come from two big jelly cans. Used X-rays serve as the skins of a thumping drum set. A battered aluminum salad bowl and strings tuned with forks from what must have been an elegant table make a violin. Bottle caps work perfectly well as keys for a saxophone.
A chamber orchestra of 20 children uses these and other instruments fashioned out of recycled materials from a landfill where their parents eke out livings as trash-pickers, regularly performing the music of Beethoven and Mozart, Henry Mancini and the Beatles.
A concert they put on for The Associated Press also featured Frank Sinatra's "My Way" and some Paraguayan polkas.
Rocio Riveros, 15, said it took her a year to learn how to play her flute, which was made from tin cans. "Now I can't live without this orchestra," she said.
Word is spreading about these kids from Cateura, a vast landfill outside Paraguay's capital where some 25,000 families live alongside reeking garbage in abject poverty.
'We're doing the impossible'
The youngsters of "The Orchestra of Instruments Recycled From Cateura" performed in Brazil, Panama and Colombia this year, and hope to play at an exhibit opening next year in their honor at the Musical Instrument Museum in Phoenix, Ariz.

Paraguayan farmers question probe into killings
"We want to provide a way out of the landfill for these kids and their families. So we're doing the impossible so that they can travel outside Paraguay, to become renowned and admired," said Favio Chavez, a social worker and music teacher who started the orchestra.
The museum connection was made by a Paraguayan documentary filmmaker, Alejandra Amarilla Nash. She and film producer Juliana Penaranda-Loftus have followed the orchestra for years, joining Chavez in his social work while making their film "Landfill Harmonic" on a shoestring budget.
The documentary is far from complete. The kids still have much to prove. But last month, the filmmakers created a Facebook page and posted a short trailer on YouTube and Vimeo that has gone viral, quickly getting more than a million views altogether.
Making dreams a reality
The community of Cateura could not be more marginalized. But the music coming from garbage has some families believing in a different future for their children.

"Thanks to the orchestra, we were in Rio de Janeiro! We bathed in the sea, on the beaches of Ipanema and Copacabana. I never thought my dreams would become reality," said Tania Vera, a 15-year-old violinist who lives in a wooden shack by a contaminated stream.
Jorge Saenz / AP
A saxophone repaired with coins and keys by Tito Romero sits in his workshop at his home in Capiata, Paraguay, on Dec. 8.
Her mother has health problems, her father abandoned them, and her older sister left the orchestra after becoming pregnant. Tania, though, now wants to be a veterinarian, as well as a musician.
The orchestra was the brainchild of Chavez. The 37-year-old opened a tiny music school at the Cateura landfill five years ago, hoping to keep youngsters out of trouble. But he had just five instruments to share, and the kids often grew restless, irritating Chavez's boss.
So Chavez asked one of the trash-pickers, Nicolas Gomez, to make some instruments from recycled materials to keep the younger kids occupied.
Come April, the classical stringed instruments that Gomez has made in his workshop alongside his pigs and chickens will be on display in Phoenix alongside one of John Lennon's pianos and Eric Clapton's guitars.
"I only studied until the fifth grade because I had to go work breaking rocks in the quarries," said Gomez, 48. But "if you give me the precise instructions, tomorrow I'll make you a helicopter!"

The museum also will display wind instruments made by Tito Romero, who was repairing damaged trumpets in a shop outside Asuncion until Chavez came calling and asked him to turn galvanized pipe and other pieces of scavenged metal into flutes, clarinets and saxophones.
"It's slow work, demanding precision, but it's very gratifying," Romero said. "Chavez is turning these kids of Cateura into people with a lot of self-esteem, giving them a shield against the vices."
'A new meaning to my life'
Ada Rios, a 14-year-old first violinist, greeted the AP with sleepy eyes and a wide smile at her family's home on the banks of a sewage-filled creek that runs into the Paraguay River.
"The orchestra has given a new meaning to my life, because in Cateura, unfortunately, many young people don't have opportunities to study, because they have to work or they're addicted to alcohol and drugs," she said.
In Los Angeles, a trailblazing conductor is determined to instill a passion for classical music in children, hoping that listening to classical music will spur a lifelong respect for the art form. NBC's Diana Alvear reports.
Chavez's kids will be performing at Asuncion's shopping centers during the holidays.

"We'll get some money, not very much, but it will help these families from Cateura," he said. "They'll be able to enjoy a good Christmas dinner."

Ancient City in Turkey is Topic of Phi Beta Kappa Lecture Thursday
New evidence about life in the ancient city of Ephesos along the west coast of Turkey will be the focus of a visiting Phi Beta Kappa lecture Thursday, Jan. 30, at 4:10 p.m. in Room 302 of the University of Wyoming Classroom Building. The talk is free and open to the public.
Christine Thomas, a professor of religious studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara, will discuss "Finding Paul in the Landscape of the Ancient City: Urban Space at Ephesos, Real and Imagined." The talk is based on recent survey work at Ephesos, where archaeologists have unearthed impressive marble buildings in its urban center, locations dominated by the monuments of the wealthy and powerful.
The surveys, Thomas says, provide a more complete picture of the urban landscape, and a more promising location for the social classes from which the first Christians were drawn.
"With the early Christian texts found in the New Testament, this evidence provides a vision of the city that is radically different from its official and visible monuments, an 'invisible city' existing alongside it," she says.
Thomas has written extensively on ancient Christian literature and on the religions of Asia Minor in the Roman Imperial Period. She conducts field work in Turkey, and her current research deals with theoretical issues surrounding the use of archaeological evidence to study religion and on the material aspects of religion in the Roman Empire.

MUNICH - The United States is ready for direct talks with Iran if it is serious about negotiations, Vice President Joe Biden said late Saturday, backing bilateral contact many see as crucial to easing a dispute over Tehran's nuclear program.
Speaking at a security conference in Munich, Biden said Iran - which says it is enriching uranium for peaceful energy only - now faced "the most robust sanctions in history" meant to ensure it does not develop nuclear weapons.
"But we have also made clear that Iran's leaders need not sentence their people to economic deprivation and international isolation," Biden said. "There is still time, there is still space for diplomacy backed by pressure to succeed. The ball is in the government of Iran's court."
To date, fitful talks on Iran's nuclear program have been between Tehran and the EU's top diplomat representing six world powers including Washington. But analysts have suggested that with his re-election behind him, President Barack Obama might have more leeway to take on direct negotiations with Iran.
That makes the year ahead critical for chances of overcoming a stand-off which, if left to fester further, could see Iran approach nuclear weapons capability, possibly provoking military action by Israel that could inflame the Middle East.
Progress on Iran would also help ease regional tensions as the United States prepares to pull most combat troops out of Iran's neighbor Afghanistan by the end of 2014.
Asked whether Washington might consider direct talks with Iran to smooth the process, Biden said, "When the Iranian leadership, Supreme Leader (Ayatollah Ali Khamenei), is serious.
"We have made it clear at the outset that we would be prepared to meet bilaterally with the Iranian leadership, we would not make it a secret that we were doing that, we would let our partners know if that occasion presented itself.
"That offer stands, but it must be real and tangible and there has to be an agenda that they are prepared to speak to. We are not just prepared to do it for the exercise."
Negotiations with Iran have so far been overseen by European Union foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton on behalf of France, Britain, Germany, China, Russia and the United States. But they have made scant headway, raising fears Iran is simply playing for time while it develops nuclear know-how.
Many believe no deal is possible without a U.S.-Iranian thaw, requiring direct talks addressing myriad sources of mutual mistrust and hostility lingering since Iran's 1979 Islamic Revolution and the hostage crisis at the U.S. embassy in Tehran.
Iran has avoided direct, public talks with the United States, though some suggest Tehran would eventually welcome an opportunity to end its international isolation.
Speaking at a news conference in Munich, Republican Senator John McCain said he would have no objection to direct talks but questioned how much these would achieve if fundamental questions over Iran's nuclear program remained unresolved.
"I don't know when we will have direct talks between the United States and Iran. That is a subject for the president of the United States. I don't think anyone here objects to that," he said. But he added, "to have grounds for optimism, I think, would be a mistake."
Israel, which describes the prospect of Iran being able to weaponize enriched uranium as an existential threat, has made clear it would be ready to bomb the nuclear sites of its arch-enemy to prevent that outcome. The United States has also said it would not rule out the use of military force.

It's My Front Office's Fault
Man, I hate the offseason. Now it looks like the Jake deal isn't very close to getting done. OKKKK, I thought we just heard that he was really close to being traded. No? Oh, must have been an error there for some poor reporter. So strange. I guess I was feeling a little better because, hey, Jake might well be staying. But I had forgotten the other side of my distress: Trevor. Yeah, and it looks like he is definitely out the door. You know, it will hurt really badly to have Trevor gone and on another team. I'll be really upset for a while, like mourning a lost friend, but then I'll eventually be OK with it. Trevor is really like family to San Diego. I don't know him personally, but like I've said before, he IS San Diego. I will definitely miss him. But as long as he isn't on a rival team, I will still get to watch him pitch through the wonderful world of video. He will still be around. Plus, I will have to become that team's fan. I might want to become an Indians fan, at least until Trevor retires. Just watch, he's going to have a 40+ save season and win a World Series. So, I will get over it. I might even enjoy seeing him on another team. But the thing I will not tolerate is the front office. They have handled situations very poorly before, but I think this is the worst. They are the ones who get the blame for letting Trevor walk. They are the ones who will have to watch this team without him. I predict that sometime this season, after the closer for this team blows it big time, they will lie in their beds, restless, thinking about how they let the ALL-TIMES SAVES LEADER walk right out the door. How they offered the ALL-TIMES SAVES LEADER $4 mil after he earned $7.5 mil the year before. They WILL regret this. They will look around the empty Petco Park one night, at the few season ticket holders snoring in their seats as the Padres are losing 45-0. They will say, we should have given Trevor the respect he deserves. We should have lowered tickets prices and maybe the budget, too, even lower. They WILL regret this. The fans are not happy. We don't like losing our best players. But we are, unfortunately, used to it. So, sometime in the next few weeks, Trevor will probably be picked up by another team. Jake still might get traded, though things have slowed considerably on that front. And we only have one place to blame: the front office.

Good news! Today the Braves GM says that they are no longer actively pursuing Jake! Well, that's a relief. But now it appears that the Yankees and the Angels are back on the radar. Oh, joy…….
I agree – I HATE the off season! All the rumors and the waiting! My suggestion – take all the front office ya-hoos, lock them in a room with a lot of beer and DO NOT let them out until spring training!
Let me share with you a cool story about Trevor that happened about 8 years ago here in Milwaukee. I hope this lightens the mood.
The Padres were playing the Brewers at Milwaukee County Stadium back in 2000. I was running around the left field bleachers trying to catch every baseball that came my way when I spotted Trevor Hoffman shagging baseballs out in left field. I was wearing a dark green Brewers floppy hat with the strings on the side (you know the type) when I yelled out to him, "Hey Trevor, wanna trade hats?" Now, I'm a big collector of baseball memorabilia (see my blog). So, to get a Trevor Hoffman game hat would have been awesome.
He yelled back, "toss yours down!" So, I tossed my floppy hat down to him on the warning track. He threw his Padres hat on the outfield grass and put mine on his head. He proceeded to shag batting practice for the next 10 minutes or so with my green floppy hat on his head. It was hilarious! He was showing his new hat off to all of his teammates.
He came back to the outfield wall and picked up his hat. He said to me, "I'll tell you what…if my hat fits you, you can have it!" At this point, I was like, please fit…please fit. I put his hat on and it only went on half of my head. I was bummed. Trevor said to me, "I've got a pinhead, man." I looked at the size tag…6 7/8! I wear a 7 1/2.
Oh well. Getting to see a major league star running around during batting practice with a floppy hat made my day. I gave him his hat back and he tossed me mine. No game hat but he did sign a baseball for me instead.
One cool dude. From that day on, I was a Trevor Hoffman fan.
Oh no, Kaybee, its nothing like that. Trust me. I felt the same way in 2006 when I heard the Mets weren't going to resign Cliff Floyd. I watched and saw the team never had the same energy, I felt they missed his presence, and now I know they would love to have him back. But when he was on the Cubs 2007 division championship roster, I was happy for him that he could make the playoffs when the Mets missed out. I felt great for him this year when his Rays made the World Series. Its just a feeling that hangs on. You don't need to love the team Hoffman goes to; you just need to continue to love him. You always just know your favorite player is doing good, and you are happy. I'm sure Trevor Hoffman leaving is a bit more of a big deal than Cliff Floyd, seeing as Hoffman spent his whole career in San Diego, but you'll get over it.
And if you hate the offseason so much but still want baseball, check out this cool website: http://baseballboss.com
Yeah, much as I enjoy watching a great Red Sox vs Yankees game, if a player on the Red Sox, for example, was to go to the Yankees, it would be unforgivable. Treason, kind of. Like when Johnny Damon *spits* went to the Yankees, I was like I will NEVER forgive him. Because not only did he go to the Yankees, but he said that he never would. It was truly heart breaking, and the Red Sox haters NEVER let me live it down. So if Jake Peavy went to the Yankees, that would be terrible.
Plus, they're probably going to get CC, and if they get Peavy, that's two crazy good pitchers. On top of that they have Mussina still (I think…), and Meng-Wang is gonna get better.
Hopefully Peavy will go somewhere like Atlanta, kind of neutral right? Unless the Padres have some crazy rivalry with them that I'm unaware of…
I honestly don't think Peavy is coming to the Yankees, but it'll hurt wherever he goes, Kaybee. Players move around so much these days. Nothing we can do about it except wish we had some control over what our front offices do. I once picked up the phone during a Yankees game and told my husband I was calling Steinbrenner. He thought I was nuts! I was only kidding, but sometimes it's frustrating being a fan because we have no say in the decisions they make.

- Mean-field phase diagrams of imbalanced Fermi gases near a Feshbach resonance
- Author(s)
- Hu, Hui; Liu, Xia-Ji
- Abstract
- We propose phase diagrams for an imbalanced (unequal number of atoms or Fermi surface in two pairing hyperfine states) gas of atomic fermions near a broad Feshbach resonance using mean-field theory. Particularly, in the plane of interaction and polarization we determine the region for a mixed phase composed of normal and superfluid components. We compare our prediction of phase boundaries with the recent measurement and find a good qualitative agreement.

Fighting chronic LymeMarch 31,2014
Fighting chronic Lyme
In October, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported Lyme disease to be 1,000 times greater than thought, now over 300,000 new cases yearly. Vermont reported more than 600 last year. Commissioner of Health Henry Chen reported to the House Health Care Committee this year that Lyme is epidemic in Vermont and can be found in every county in the state. Commissioner Chen has also been working with the Legislature to educate Vermonters and doctors about Lyme prevention, diagnosis and treatment options.
Find Lyme prevention information at www.lymediseaseassociation.org. Typically May through October are months for Lyme, but nymphs, the size of poppy seeds, are out in leaf litter as early as April. Woods, grasses and your woodpile may harbor them. Children are most at risk because they are closest to the ground. Parents should tick-check kids often during play where there is possible exposure. Teaching your kids to do their own and buddy tick checks is a good habit to develop. Lyme can be debilitating and have serious neurological effects.
Learn how to remove ticks safely, and note the symptoms of Lyme; www.lymepa.org has an excellent symptoms list in its booklet (PDF or by request). Treating Lyme early and adequately is challenging but possible. Only 50 percent of people remember having a bulls-eye rash, and it takes about four to six weeks to build antibodies that show up in some tests. About 40 percent of testing done after that is inaccurate, so catching early, easily treated Lyme is diagnostic. This is difficult as Lyme looks like many other diseases, and experience in diagnosis can be important. Lyme is endemic in Vermont and now found in every state in the U.S., in Canada and in other parts of the world transmitted with other tick-borne diseases complicating diagnosis and treatment.
For more information about Lyme in Vermont, www.vermontlyme.com is a gateway to what is happening in our state and what you can do to keep yourself, your family and your friends from developing chronic Lyme, which is much more difficult to treat and often requires long-term treatment. If you have chronic Lyme, you can get better if treated adequately. The International Lyme and Associated Disease Society, more than 12,000 physicians who research and treat chronic Lyme, offers up-to-date science-based information for you and your doctor at www.ILADS.org. Options exist for treating chronic Lyme, and the commissioner of health is working to ensure that more Vermont doctors are aware of these options. Research the ILADS site for accurate science-based info that is current.

Coming Soon: 'Enter The Dragon' 40th Anniversary's Ultimate Collector's Edition Giftset
"Enter the Dragon," one of martial arts icon Bruce Lee's last films, will debut June 11 on Blu-ray in the "Enter the Dragon 40th Anniversary Ultimate Collector's Edition" giftset from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment.
The film, which helped bring interest in the Asian martial arts genre to mainstream Western cinema, has been re-mastered for its 40th anniversary, and will now feature new bonus materials, such as the featurette, "No Way as Way," on the legacy of Bruce Lee, plus other featurettes and commentary. Memorabilia -- which includes collectible art cards, lenticular card and an embroidered patch --are also part of the giftset.
"Enter the Dragon" revolves around outstanding martial arts student Lee (Bruce Lee), who is recruited by an intelligence agency and then uncovers the evil Han's (Kien Shih) white slavery and drug trafficking ring located on a secret island fortress.
Along with martial arts champions Roper (John Saxon) and Williams (Jim Kelly), Lee infiltrates the stronghold and enters Han's brutal tournament. Lee and his partners fuse skills in Karate, Judo, Tae Kwon Do, T'ai chi ch'uan and Hapkido, in a now classic fight-to-the-death epic battle, all staged by Lee himself.
Bruce Lee was an incredible athlete and mixed martial artist who, despite making a limited number of movies during his short life, became a charismatic megastar and left a permanent mark on cinema and popular culture. Time magazine included Lee in the "100 Most Important People of the 20th century" issue (Heroes and Icons 1999*).
"Enter the Dragon" continues to resonate with today's audiences. It was a major theatrical hit 40 years ago, grossing approximately $25 million domestically – the equivalent of almost $180 million in today's box-office.
"Enter the Dragon" has sold more than 450,000 units on DVD and Blu-ray since 2004. In 2004, "Enter the Dragon" was selected by the Library of Congress for preservation in the United States National Film Registry as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant."

The Canyon Plastics Swim Doctor was developed to address several concerns that arise when throwing big baits. How do you make a strong, realistic bait that won't break apart after catching a couple of fish? How do you reach deeper fish? And most importantly, how do you keep the bait weedless and still get a hook in the fish when you get bit? To create a realistic looking swimbait body, Canyon molded a plastic encased lead weight with a hole bored through it, allowing line to feed through the bait. This system keeps the line inside the hard plastic so when a fish is hooked, the line will not cut through the bait. The weedless part is accomplished by providing the lure with a huge single hook that can be Texas rigged. Texas-style. The Swim Doctors can also be flipped or pitchedinto thick cover due to their weedless design.

text: Power of Suggestion. myfirstnameisterry posted:3/21/2014 11:16:36 PM After reading this article, I thought it was an interesting idea to keep members of investigations in the dark about the background on places. However, I have run into several issues, including: 1) people are unwilling to go to an unknown destination 2) by providing people with a name, everything is very google-able unless it is an original investigation. The article basically says that by only having a few members of your team with knowledge of a location, that you are getting a better and more fair feel for a place. When everyone knows the location, they are going to see what they should see - hence the power of suggestion. How has suggestion played a part in your investigations? I can remember going out with a group once (a long time ago), and somebody passed wind. Everyone in the group started talking about how they were smelling sulfur and that there must be a demon present. The power of suggestion, especially in the paranormal world, is really influential. Considering that the paranormal world thrives on faith, everyone is ready to believe in something.Jaxerback posted:3/22/2014 3:20:43 AM So somebody farted and the smell was considered demonic...yeah It could have been me.bobprin posted:3/22/2014 5:57:27 AM Well Jax, you are what you eat. Tell someone a place is haunted and they will never look at the same again. Of course just being an investigator creates suggestion. Sometimes the suggestion is so strong it manifests itself from the mind of the observer.

- Palliative care for families: remembering the hidden patients
- Author(s)
- Kristjanson, Linda J.; Aoun, Samar
- Abstract
- Families of patients receiving palliative care are profoundly affected by the challenges of the illness. They observe care that the patient receives, provide care for the patient, and receive support from health professionals in the form of information, counselling, or practical assistance. As they witness and participate in the patient's care, they judge the quality of care that the patient receives. They often see themselves as the patient's care advocates and may harbour regret and guilt if they believe that the patient did not have the best possible care. The illness experience profoundly affects family members' psychological and physical health; recognition of this has coined the term "hidden patients." This article briefly synthesizes empirical work that suggests how to best support families in a palliative care context. We discuss how to define the family, emphasizing a systems approach to family care. We describe the impact of the illness on the family in terms of family members' health, family communication issues, psychological issues, needs for information, physical care demands, and family costs of caring.

Loyal dog watches over master's grave for 6 years
Family says Capitán the German shepherd mix refuses to leave cemetery
A widow in Argentina said she knew the bond between their family dog and her late husband was strong, but she never expected Capitán the German shepherd mix to stoically stand watch over his grave every day since his passing six years ago.
Veronica Guzman told LaVoz that her husband, Miguel Guzman, adopted Capitán in 2005 as a gift for their son. But that it was Miguel who formed the best friendship with him.
Guzman said when Miguel died in 2006, the dog ran away from home and they were unable to locate him. Not long after, she said she visited Miguel's resting site at the cemetery with her son, Damien, and found Capitán there guarding his master's grave.
"We searched for him, but he had vanished," Guzman told the newspaper. "We thought he must have got run over and died. The following Sunday we went to the cemetery, and Damian recognized his pet. Capitán came up to us, barking and wailing as if he were crying."
According to LaVoz, Guzman said she has no clue how the dog could have found the cemetery, or her husband's gravesite since no one had taken him there before.
Officials at the cemetery said Capitán just showed up one day six years ago and has never left.
"During the day he sometimes has a walk around the cemetery, but always rushes back to the grave. And every day, at 6 o'clock sharp, he lies down on top of the grave, stays there all night," Cemetery director Hector Baccega said.
According to Baccega, Capitán seems determined to stand his post, so the cemetery staff has taken to feeding and caring for the loyal canine sentinel as best they can.
Damian told the newspaper that, "I've tried to bring Capitan home several times, but he always comes straight back to the cemetery. I think he's going to be there until he dies too. He's looking after my dad."

Reviewed By Bradley D (Hoover, AL) Reviewed for a 1977 GMC C/K Pickup —9/12/2007 9:06 AM
I was wanting to get a floor mat for my stepfather's 1977 GMC Sierra Classic Truck. He is the original owner and very meticulous about what goes on or in his truck. This really fit the bill. Although not like the original one's when the truck first was built (long since gone) these are a very heavy and durable mat that looks like it will wear very well for the next 30 years. Great mat and fit. Excellent Product. Will buy again from AutoAnything. Thanks, Brad Birmingham, AL
