U.S. Science Programs Could Fall Behind Via Fiscal Cliff's Sequestration of Federal Funds

The top states that would be hit are California, Maryland, Virginia, Massachusetts and Washington D.C.
Science programs in America may take a very hard hit if sequestration of federal funds takes place, according to a new study.
The study, conducted for the Aerospace Industries Association by Center for Regional Analysis Director Steve Fuller, shows that large cuts in employment in U.S. science programs could affect scientific progress and even non-scientific jobs across the country.
Currently, the Bureau of Labor Statistics shows that 1,082,370 U.S. citizens work in the life sciences such as biology. However, if the fiscal cliff's sequestration of
federal funds
becomes a reality, 31,000 of these citizens could lose their jobs.
"The 31,000 figure does not include the indirect job losses, such as subcontractors, suppliers and vendors, or the induced job impacts," said Fuller. "Induced jobs are those supported by employee's spending on goods and services, so these are unlikely to be STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) type jobs but rather retail, consumer services, education and health, construction and those types of occupations.
"The direct jobs are clearly the immediate losses and encompass most of the STEM-type jobs. There will be some subcontractor job losses, including some STEM type jobs. For DOD contracts in general, subcontractor jobs are about 26 percent of the total where the direct jobs are about 30 percent. The remaining job losses, 44 percent, are induced."
Furthermore, a potential $56.7 billion cut to the Department of Defense (DOD) would eliminate 14,982 science jobs out of the total 325,693 lost. Another $59 billion cut to the U.S. Geological Survey would mean another 15,980 science jobs lost.
Matthew Hourihan, director of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), further added that certain states like California would be hit the hardest with a potenial $11.3 million loss. The other four states in the top five included Maryland, Virginia, Massachusetts and Washington D.C.
An even more troubling outcome pointed out by Hourihan would be that American science would be set back by about a decade.
Another issue is grant proposals. Scientists will spend more time writing these grant proposals to keep their labs running and staffed rather than working on actual science. Also, a cut in federal spending could mean a $586 million loss for the American Institute of Biological Sciences, and a grant proposal success rate drop from 22 percent to 16 percent.

Support World CouncilWith Amazon Smiles!
In 2012, World Council of Credit Unions added three new partnerships to its existing International Partnerships Program. The new partnerships were started between:
The balance of 2012 was focused on signing up new partners and reengaging those organizations that had participated in the program in the past. In 2013, the program will shift its focus to putting together strong work plans for all new and existing partnerships. The partnerships program maintained its strong level of World Council Supporters with all 21 partnerships having at least one partner providing direct financial support to the program. There was a total of 49 financial supporters in the program in 2012, a rise of 12 supporters over last year.
Partnership activities and other events sponsored by the partnerships program received more than their share of media coverage. (See attached.) Articles and stories on international partners and departmental programs often appeared in league newsletters, CUNA's News Now, Credit Union Magazine, Credit Union Times and, periodically, in non-U.S. financial and trade publications. The program's efforts resulted in 27 news releases issued throughout the year. Fourteen of those news releases pertained to the International Partnerships Program, four others related to study tours and nine covered the International Credit Union Leadership Program.
World Council's Customized International Training programs led to further success in 2012. World Council hosted a record number of 16 customized international training programs throughout the U.S., Canada and Costa Rica, serving 136 participants.
In addition, the partnerships program engaged six U.S. credit union, league and regulator volunteers in training events in Belize, the Dominican Republic, Paraguay, Panama and Russia.
The Worldwide Foundation was also granted a renewal of the U.S. State Department grant from the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, Office of Citizen Exchanges, to carry out the International Credit Union Leadership Program in 2013 and 2014, focusing on economic empowerment. The program falls under the Professional Fellows Program, which provides opportunities for industry employees and volunteers from foreign countries to participate in a credit union internship in the U.S. The program has a second component that allows their U.S. counterparts to intern in the selected foreign country. The 2013 and 2014 project will work with Costa Rica and Brazil.
In 2012, World Council's International Partnerships Program supported 21 different partnerships:
Bahamas / Massachusetts
Belize / Catalyst Corporate Federal Credit Union
Brazil / Texas
Colombia / Maryland & DC Credit Union Association
Costa Rica / League of Southeastern Credit Unions
Dominican Republic / Wisconsin
Estonia / Virginia
Ghana / Jefferson Financial CU
Guatemala / California & Nevada
Jamaica / Texas

2011 a successful year at HSCAZ
As 2011 comes to an end, I believe my premonition about how this year would be came true. 2011 was a successful year for the Humane Society of Central Arizona. This year we welcomed Kat Knauff as our new Animal Services Manager. Kat has proven to be a huge asset to HSCAZ. This year she helped place 175 animals into rescue; versus last year's number of 40. Kat also helped set up and successfully complete the first mobile Spay and Neuter Clinic to take place in the last 2-1/2 years. I think it's safe to say we are glad to welcome Kat aboard.

The translation on the back is funny. However I am wondering if anyone knows why they call it Tone Ting (and not Tung Ting)? Typo? Anyway, for tea from a local world market, it was great. Paid $8 bucks for 100g. Packaged on 01-14-2008.
I am a sucker for cool packaging:

Men's featherweight Mark Lopez (Sugar Land, Texas) took the Olympic silver medal on Thursday at the Beijing University of Science and Technology Gymnasium. Lopez lost the gold medal match to Korea's Son Taejin, 3-2, after Taejin scored the winning point in the final seconds of the third round.
"Of course I wanted the gold medal," said Mark Lopez. "I came here for the gold medal but I got silver and you've got to be happy with that."
Mark's younger sister, Diana Lopez (Sugar Land, Texas), also captured an Olympic medal on Thursday winning the bronze medal in the women's featherweight division. She defeated Italy's Veronica Calabrese in sudden death overtime to claim the medal.
"I am just so happy, so emotional," Diana Lopez said. "To compete at this level and at this venue is an honor."
Eldest brother Jean Lopez, coached both his younger siblings to their podium finishes.
"This time she really honed in on what I've been saying to her," Jean Lopez said about Diana's bronze medal bout. "I said she didn't have this oppportunity before and it might not be something that she gets the opportunity to do again. I told her that the medal is her hardware. Her kids will brag about this medal and her grandkids will brag about this medal."
The fourth member of the Lopez family, men's welterweight Steven Lopez, will try for his third straight Olympic gold medal on Friday. His first match is at 11:30 a.m. (11:30 p.m. EDT Thursday).

NYPA Redirects Power Between 2 Lines by Using Transmission Control Device
September 1, 2004
MARCY—An advanced feature of a new transmission-control device recently completed at the New York Power Authority's (NYPA) Frederick R. Clark Energy Center here got its first use this week, with power redirected from one transmission line to another in the same substation.
NYPA utilized the new feature shortly before noon on Monday (Aug. 30) on instructions of the New York Independent System Operator (NYISO), which determined that system conditions warranted the transfer capability of the convertible static compensator (CSC), as the device is known, in addition to other actions.
"The utilization of equipment installed for the second and final phase of the convertible static compensator reflects New York State's recognition under Governor George E. Pataki of the benefits of new technologies to improve the versatility and strength of its electric power system," NYPA President and CEO Eugene W. Zeltmann said. "The new equipment allowed us to redirect power between two circuits at Marcy, responding to system conditions."
The CSC operated in a mode referred to as static series synchronous compensator, or SSSC, one of several configurations the equipment is designed for.
Last June, Governor Pataki announced the completion of the second phase of the CSC, which was already providing significant benefits stemming from work finished in mid-2001. Equipment installed under the project's first phase provided voltage support for increasing power flow on the statewide power grid by up to 114,000 kilowatts (kw). The second phase increased the total amount to up to nearly 200,000 kw.
The NYISO, which oversees the operation of the state's power grid, directed NYPA to activate the Phase 2 equipment to assist in maintaining reliable power flows.
The ISO issued the directive to make certain that a circuit between Roseton in Orange County and East Fishkill in Dutchess County would continue to operate within safe operating limits in the unlikely event of problems elsewhere on the system. The ISO asked NYPA to use the Phase 2 equipment to redirect a portion of the power on the circuit, which is part of the Power Authority's Marcy-South transmission line, from Marcy to East Fishkill, and move it to another 345-kilovolt line extending to New Scotland in Albany County.
The new equipment operated for about two hours, before system conditions allowed the CSC to be returned to an operational mode for voltage support.
The Governor's announcement in June of the equipment's completion coincided with an event led by Lt. Governor Mary O. Donohue celebrating the milestone.
The $54 million CSC is largely contained in a gymnasium-sized building at the Clark Energy Center. The operations of NYPA's 17 generating facilities and its 1,400 circuit-miles of transmission lines are monitored, and information is exchanged with the NYISO, from the Authority's Energy Control Center at Clark.
NYPA invested more than $41 million in the transmission-control device, with the remainder provided by various power industry organizations with an interest in advancing the technology and sharing what's learned from NYPA's experience. They included EPRI (Electric Power Research Institute), the industry's science and technology development organization; Siemens Power Transmission and Distribution, the manufacturer of the CSC; and more than 30 other utilities and independent system operators in the U.S., Canada and New Zealand.
The CSC belongs to a family of so-called FACTS technology—an acronym for Flexible Alternating Current Transmission Systems—in which high-speed, solid-state electronics are used rather than conventional electromechanical devices to control transmission voltage and power flow.

Shutterstock and Getty Images Competitor Pond5 Raises $61 Million
Stock media marketplace Pond5 Inc. raised a whopping $61 million in venture funding from Accel Partners and Stripes Group, the firms announced Wednesday. The New York City startup, founded in 2006, had only raised $500,000 in seed funding previously, said Pond5 Chief Executive Tom Bennett.
Pond5 lets artists sell still images, videos or audio content they've created to media producers online, setting their own prices, and taking a 50% cut of all sales made via Pond5.
After selling their work on Pond5, artists have seen their clips and images wind up in music videos by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, television programs like The Walking Dead, House of Cards and Saturday Night Live, and in feature films like Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.
Today, the company employs 70 full-time in 18 countries, with most in New York and Prague. More than half of Pond5′s users hail from outside of the U.S.
Given the new capital, Pond5 plans to continue with its international expansion, including translation of its platform into Japanese, Czech and Korean this year.
The CEO said the company will also develop new partnerships with makers of software, cameras and other tools used by "makers" of media and entertainment. Pond5 today offers a plug-in that allows users of Adobe Premiere Pro, video-editing software, to find and buy clips as they work.
Pond5 competes with online media marketplaces like the publicly traded Shutterstock Inc., stalwarts like Getty Images Inc. and Corbis Corp., as well as other venture-funded startups like VideoBlocks Inc. (which sells "all you can eat" video clips by monthly subscription) and Freeplay Music Inc. for audio.
Accel Partners' John Locke said his firm had wanted to fund Pond5 for years. But since the company was profitable since its earliest days, the CEO had declined a potential investment earlier.
One reason it was the right time for Pond5 to take capital now, the investor said, is that it is competing against "goliaths" (like Shutterstock and Getty) in the middle of a "dramatic shift" in the media and entertainment industry.
He said, "Major networks and ad agencies don't have a stranglehold on viewers anymore," and a "new wave of creators" are producing and widely distributing content and making money from it.
The growth of businesses like YouTube, Netflix, Vice and recent deals in the space including Disney 's acquisition of Maker Studios all suggest a long-term, favorable trend for media and entertainment, he said.
Stripes Group Managing Partner Dan Marriott, another Pond5 investor, expects the startup to use the funding on hiring, product development and marketing initiatives.
To date, he said, Pond5 hasn't spent money or time on marketing and advertising. He anticipates getting word out to content creators, "from major [TV] networks down to your local school or church," will accelerate Pond5′s growth significantly in existing and new markets alike.
Mr. Marriott said because it is giving artists more favorable terms than other places where they can sell or distribute their work online, Pond5 has a chance to eclipse competitors.
"As we've learned from marketplace businesses like Elance-Odesk or Etsy , when a company is able to build a supply- and demand-side that's balanced, and is treating users well on both sides, they can get massive," he said.

XSAN Connection Issue - HELP!
So I recently came onboard at an organization where I am the lead of their mac environment.
One of the tasks they have me working on is fixing their XSan's. Its been about almost a year since their last mac tech, and even when they first set up the XSan about two years back, it never fully worked (connection issues and such).
To give you a bit of background on my experience, my last job was being the lead of the mac environment at another organization but I never got to work with XSan's previously, so this is still fairly new to me.
So coming onboard, currently the XSan will not connect to any of the client systems on the network. Previously about 3 out of the 6 clients were able to connect the week prior, but are not unable to connect.
I checked system logs on both the xsans server and the systems but could not find anything that would effect the client systems connection to the XSan.
Our setup:
- Apple XServe running the XSAN and the connected storage for it - The apple xserve is connected only to the fiber network (apparently it was never connected to the network via ethernet and worked previously off of just the fiber network).
- 6 Mac Pro Desktops that are the clients, each with the client XSan software installed. These systems are connected to both the fiber network (exclusively for the xsan) and the local ethernet network.
I am able to ping the systems from the XSAN, and I can ping the XSAN from the client systems.
The current systems that are set up on the XSan are showing up as "Unreachable or offline", and one of them says requires password (when entering the local admin password for this client system and clicking authenticate, it just says the system is unreachable or offline).
As a test, a mac pro that was connected to the fiber network (but was showing as unreachable or offline), I removed the system from XSan's, then tried re-adding it to XSans, was not able to add it because it was "Unreachable or offline".
Tried reinstalling the xsans client software on the client system and readding it again, still was showing up as being "Unreachable or offline", even though I could clearly ping the system from the xsan server, and remote to it.
I also tried making sure that port 311 was open on the xsan and the client system.
There is no firewall on the fiber network that I could think of that would be blocking this port.
Can someone please assist? I can give more information to assist with this.
Thank You
B Robertson
There is a contradiction in
There is a contradiction in your statements somewhere (unless I'm missing a step or you have both a fiber channel network and a fiber ethernet network, which wasn't clear).
Apple XServe running the XSAN and the connected storage for it - The apple xserve is connected only to the fiber network (apparently it was never connected to the network via ethernet and worked previously off of just the fiber network).
I am able to ping the systems from the XSAN, and I can ping the XSAN from the client systems.
Unless you are running an actual fiber ethernet network as well how are the clients able to ping the Xserve running the XSAN?
The basic system requirements for XSAN include both a Fibre Channel and an Ethernet network and all computers accessing the SAN must have both. MetaData requests travel from the clients to your MDC (the Xserve based on what you described above) over the ethernet network and then the files are accessed over the fiber channel network.
Still not entirely clear on
Still not entirely clear on your network config (and whether you have a fiber ethernet network and a fiber channel network or just a fiber channel network.
On the Xserve what do you have in the System Preferences > Network? Is there an active ethernet network? On the clients are there two, one your public regular network and one the private Xsan network?
Then you are running your
Then you are running your XSAN private network over fiber as well. Do you have DNS configured for that network (each machine on the network)? Can you ping each fiber network port by it's appropriate DNS name?
im confused
you say wahhhhhhh
is it a converged networking switch that has IP and FC on a single stack?
how are you network settings configured?
-Trevor Carlson
wait now i get your confusion
wait now i get your confusion.... XSAN is a storage area network which consists of all the parts.
Storage (disks/SAN/FCSAN/storage subsystem)
Clients and Controllers (computers connected to SAN)
public network IP(computers connected to san to access internet and other non SAN information)
private network IP (dedicated network for SAN management traffic)
fibre network (fibre channel only network for data read/write operations)
Sounds like your missing the dedicated private network. If you really have fibre media ethernet lets call it optical ethernet to avoid confusion.
step1 all clients and controllers should be able to ping eachother on public network ip
step2 all clients and controllers should be able to ping eachother on public network ip <500ms
step3 all clients and controllers need to see fibre channel luns terminal: diskutil list (should see xsan components listed)
step4 (restart controllers)
step 5 (restart clients 5 minutes later)
-Trevor Carlson
public should be providing
public should be providing dns. thats how i usually set it up. make sure you controllers and clients can icmp each other first, your 5 steps ahead right now.
-Trevor Carlson
Can the controllers see each
Can the controllers see each other in the computer list? Oh wait, you only have one controller dedicated? Or are one of the mac pros also a controller?
-Trevor Carlson
do you need data on the
do you need data on the volume? is the volume mounting on the controller?
-Trevor Carlson
I think it might be helpful
I think it might be helpful to put the Xserve on the public ethernet network as well. The only thing that should occur on your private network is the metadata traffic.

Tony Alberts named new head coach of Marshall girls' tennis team
By Matt Dahlseid
MARSHALL – Tony Alberts arrived in Marshall in 2009 and dove into coaching right away. A social studies teacher at Marshall High School, Alberts has been an assistant football coach under Terry Bahlmann and an assistant softball coach under Jack Houseman.
But deep down, Alberts has been waiting for an opportunity to get back involved in the sport that's been his biggest passion. When Holly Knudson resigned from her position as the Marshall girls' tennis coach in December, he saw his opening.
Last week, Alberts accepted the position to become the new head coach of the Tiger girls' tennis program and said he's already been at work on recruiting. He's looking for girls who show a glimmer of interest in the sport that he can help mold in an effort to strengthen the foundation of Marshall tennis.
"I think we have a good group this year and I'm really excited about coaching these girls, plus getting our community behind it," Alberts said. "I think getting youth involvement and getting the numbers back up to where they should be, that's going to be an important step."
Alberts grew up playing tennis and was a four-year member of the varsity team at Farmington. He graduated from Farmington in 1996 and later returned to the school to be an assistant boys' tennis coach under Jack Olwell, who has been there for over 20 years.
With Alberts' background in tennis, Marshall activities director Bruce Remme said hiring Alberts as the new girls' tennis coach was a logical choice.
"Tony is an energetic and enthusiastic coach," Remme said in a press release. " He has been an asset to both the football program and softball program during his time here at MHS, and we look forward to seeing him bring that same energy and commitment to the tennis program.
"Tony has been awaiting an opportunity to get back into coaching tennis, as tennis is a real passion for him. This position allows him to pursue that passion and provides our student-athletes a great teacher and role model as a leader."
The Tiger tennis team tied for the Southwest Conference regular season championship in the fall sports season, but will have to replace the leadership of three all-conference seniors.
As he works to teach the younger tennis players the game, Alberts said it's important to be able to help those players harness their emotions and create a strong work ethic.
"The game of tennis itself is an awesome game for so many reasons, but one of the fortunate things is it's a very mental game," Alberts said, "and I think learning about that mental stability and being able to deal with frustration and disappointment, as well as the good stuff, that teaches life lessons not only on the court, but off of it.
"I think that's one of the benefits that I'll be able to bring is having that background and being able to help players go through those disappointing times and having a positive outlook to keep yourself in the game."
Alberts said he has talked with Knudson and assistant coach Erik Hall about where the program has been and what they hope for it in the future. He said Hall is a good friend and plans on having him on board as an assistant next season.
When discussing his vision for the program, Alberts doesn't talk about defending conference titles or getting players to state. Instead, he speaks of developing a framework that will allow Marshall tennis to attain those accomplishments in the years to come.
"I think our goal for right now is just getting the numbers up, getting them where they should be," he said. "I think we're losing a lot of good leadership on the team. There are still good girls there, but I think numbers are going to be our first priority and making sure we get every girl who has a mind for tennis on the court and get them to fall in love with the sport."

A 19-4 run ties it at halftime for the Bears, who oust the overall top seed.
By ANTONYA ENGLISH
Published April 5, 2005
INDIANAPOLIS - Kim Mulkey-Robertson's annual crawfish boil and family reunion will have to wait at least one more day. This time around, Baylor didn't let its business go unfinished.
In a game reminiscent of their season opener against LSU, the Bears fell behind by double digits in the first half of Sunday night's NCAA Tournament national semifinal.
But unlike the first game, Baylor didn't stay down.
By dominating in the paint and holding the nation's best player relatively in check, Baylor rallied to earn a 68-57 upset over No.1 overall seed LSU at the RCA Dome. It was the second-largest deficit overcome in the history of the Women's Final Four.
"We just beat, in my opinion, the most talented team in the country," said Mulkey-Robertson, who will become the first to win a national championship as a player and coach a team in a national title game when the Bears face Michigan State, which beat Tennessee 68-64, on Tuesday.
Early on, it didn't seem plausible Mulkey-Robertson would utter that sentence. With the score tied at 7, LSU went on a 17-2 run, making it 24-9 on a 3-pointer by Scholanda Hoston with 7:42 left.
Mulkey-Robertson had seen enough. She called timeout and challenged her players to muster some pride and get ready to mount a comeback.
"We get down by 15, and I'm looking at my coaches saying we are about to get embarrassed on national television," Mulkey-Robertson said. "I challenged my players, and once again, what warriors they were.
"I don't remember exactly what I said, but I think it had something to do with putting a little fire in your belly. I do remember that I told them you're not going to get it back in one or two possessions."
Instead, Baylor methodically went to work on LSU. The Bears switched from man-to-man to a defense the Baylor coach admittedly doesn't like - a zone. It slowed LSU's transition game and kept the Tigers off the free-throw line.
Trailing by 15, Baylor went on a 19-4 run during the final seven minutes of the half, led by six points in the final 1:25 from Emily Niemann and strong play from forward Sophia Young, who scored eight of her team-high 21 during the first half.
"I thought I had to step up big time for my team," Young said.
"My teammates did a great job getting me the ball, and I just scored when I had to."
When Chelsea Whittaker hit a layup with four seconds remaining in the half to tie the score at 28, the game had shifted toward Baylor's favor.
"We totally lost the momentum going into halftime," LSU coach Pokey Chatman said. "We basically didn't get it done. We have a quote when we leave our locker room that says, "You don't always get what you want. You get what you earn.'
"I'm sure our kids wanted to win, but we didn't do a whole lot to go out there and earn it. And I think that Baylor did."
LSU (33-3) regrouped and led by as many as six midway through the second half. But again, Baylor chipped away at the lead.
Tied at 51 with 6:17 remaining, the Bears went on an 8-0 run, taking a lead they never relinquished. Baylor was 12-of-14 from the free-throw line during the final 6:17.
Baylor (32-3) outscored LSU 32-24 in the paint and limited the Tigers' transition game, holding them to two fastbreak points. Niemann scored 14 points and Abiola Wabara 12.
Seimone Augustus, the national player of the year, led the Tigers with 22 points but was 10-of-26 from the field. Senior Temeka Johnson scored 14 and freshman center Sylvia Fowles 13.
"You're never happy when you lose, especially when you lose on a stage like this," Augustus said. "I can't see anything right now but anger and frustration."
With the victory, Baylor becomes the first team to reach the national title game in its first trip to the Final Four since Oklahoma in 2002.
It also will enter the final with the fewest tournament wins in program history since Texas Tech in 1993. Sunday's victory was the Bears' eighth, three more than the Red Raiders.

SCHOOLS: Making waves with swimming
It was such as strange match-up, you may have missed some record-setting performances.
Who would have thought Panama school, enrollment 550, would be taking on a combined team from Silver Creek, Fredonia and Dunkirk, combined enrollment 4,600 students, in girls swimming? It happened last Wednesday – and the combined team won despite a strong effort by the much smaller district of swimmers.
Panama is easily forgotten in this portion of the county, but just like Forestville, you have to wonder why it is not actively looking to combine with other districts. If larger schools, such as Silver Creek, Fredonia and Dunkirk, are part of a combined team, you know Panama won't be one for long.
But back to the achievements. Deidra Osula of Fredonia broke a 29-year-old record in the 100 butterfly with a time of 59.33 seconds and Riley Drummond of Dunkirk broke her own school record in the 100 backstroke with a time of 1 minute and 3.67 seconds.
That is a great start for one team with three schools represented.

Scandinavian Style
A new exhibition and auction explore the allure of Nordic design
"Important Nordic Design" is a modest title for Phillips de Pury & Company's upcoming auction in London. Phillips hired architect Lee Mindel, partner at Shelton, Mindel & Associates, to curate the Scandinavian design sale and an exhibition of 61 photographs that he has taken in Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden. "I first went to Scandinavia for an interiors exposition five years ago," says Mindel. "I've been going back every year since." The auction includes important—and exceptionally beautiful—furniture, lighting, and jewelry by Alvar Aalto, Poul Henningsen, Tapio Wirkkala, and Erik Gunnar Asplund, to name a few. Mindel's photographs complement and contextualize the work. His mix of landscapes and architectural details capture the warm-yet-cool balance that makes Scandinavian design so appealing. "The Scandinavians have a sense of civic responsibility towards one another," says Mindel. "They are aware of and acknowledge humanity and the hand of man."
"Important Nordic Design" auction November 17, viewing from November 9-17 at Phillips de Pury & Company, London; phillipsdepury.com

45th Presidential Inauguration photo gallery
A box of 64 wonderful, colorful ways to inspire
They arrived in the hands of millions of children in what might be considered a version of the "Weight Watchers" recipe file – a taller, thinner box with a flip-back lid which looked smashing and scholarly in forest green and school bus yellow. The Kingston Trio was singing "Tom Dooley." Hats, furs and shoes played an important part in the fashion stamp of 1958. Hats were tall and set toward the back of the head; although they were not considered to be a Hennin – the cylindrical hats sported by women in Medieval times.
Looking very much like Hennins all in rows were the newly-released 64 Crayola crayons. These crayons, featuring different, brilliant colors – plus a first ever built-in sharpener – resided in four cardboard neighborhoods within this box.
Introduced in 1958 on television's "Captain Kangaroo Show," the box of 64 sold for only $1 and offered 16 new colors. I was not around when this colorful moment arrived; however, nine years later I did receive my first box of 64 crayons for my 7th birthday.
I was spellbound.
Carefully flipping back the lid, the waxy smell became my cologne and the brilliant display of colors (plus that sharpener) was music to my soul. It was the perfect time to receive a new box of crayons, because my much smaller school-box ones were looking awfully tired. They had a place of honor on my bedroom dresser and I realized the start of summer was going to be boundless. Not only had I received the Cadillac of crayons, but three color books as well. The first book was "Sing Along Nursery Rhymes;" second was "Trip Around the World" – color-by-number with complete story which introduced me to Ghana, the Taj Mahal in India, and Holland's tulips and windmills; and the third was "Smokey the Bear."
As a child, I studied each crayon's name and wondered who were the lucky souls were that actually named each of these crayons. Jan and I still smile when we talk about red violet and violet red yes, they are different! The original 1958 Crayola box of 64 included the following colors: apricot, aquamarine, bittersweet, black, blue, blue gray, blue green, blue violet, brick red, brown, burnt orange, burnt sienna, cadet blue, carnation pink, copper, cornflower, flesh, forest green, gold, goldenrod, gray, green, green blue, green yellow, Indian red, lavender, lemon yellow, magenta, mahogany, maize, maroon, melon, midnight blue, mulberry, navy blue, olive green, orange, orange red, orange yellow, orchid, periwinkle, pine green, plum, raw sienna, raw umber, red, red orange, red violet, salmon, sea green, sepia, silver, sky blue, spring green, tan, thistle, turquoise blue, violet (purple), violet blue, violet red, white, yellow, yellow green and yellow orange. What was your favorite color?
Technology has done a wonderful job of connecting the history of Crayola crayons to the present desire of color changes. Over the years, several colors have had name changes and some have even been retired. The Crayola Co. conducted a survey and has listed the top 50 Crayola colors. Guess what color is ranked No. 1 in this survey? It was introduced in 1903 and was included in the original colors. It is blue!
In addition, they have added these elements on the website to make the colors more exciting and relatable to the importance color plays in our lives. The categories include: personality traits, cultural meanings, fun facts, history, sports, music and movies. For example:
No. 1-ranked Blue, under music, relates to Blue Moon (Alley Cats), Blue Suede Shoes (Elvis Presley);
No. 6 Caribbean Green, under fun facts, describes green as often used in libraries because it creates meditative atmosphere;
No. 40 (a favorite of mine) Bittersweet Orange lists under personality traits as vibrant, warm, autumn leaves, and adventurous, to name a few;
Coming in at No. 50 is Laser Yellow. In the sports list, it shows yellow balls were used in baseball before they were in tennis;
My favorite has to No. 41, Carnation Pink. In the color information section we learn that body builders report a 10 percent gain in muscle size when the gym is pink;
No. 33, Robin Egg Blue, is a good color for rooms in which tedious work is done – such a kitchen or laundry room. (No wonder Julia Child
selected this for her kitchen and my parents chose this for their Laundromat. Maybe this color should be introduced to the walls of Congress!)
Spending time with crayons and color books has always been a point of discovery and development for me. I see this tradition continuing with Lydia. Nothing makes me smile more that seeing an adult with a crayon in hand and child at their side exploring and enjoying the world of coloring. My mom sat with me and colored and Delores Thompson, my mother-in-law, has spent countless hours over the years coloring with her grandchildren Tyler, Tanner, and Lydia. My brother, Tom, showed Lydia the wonders that a paper towel can do when rubbed over a colored page. Jan and Lydia have colored enough princesses to fill the Magic Kingdom and beyond.
One of the very first color books that Lydia and I shared is "Famous American Women." The first to be colored was Amelia Earhart. Lydia's little 3-year-old mind asked many questions about this amazing woman of flight. Next in line was alto Marian Anderson. She became not only a great singer, but a U.S. delegate to the United Nations. When Lydia was 3, we took in Bismarck's lighting of Belle Mehus Auditorium at Christmas. As we stood in line, she noticed a poster of Marian singing there years earlier. It was a great moment as she connected to her coloring the image of Marian. Coloring these illustrations of strong women has given her an easel of knowledge that will benefit her for a lifetime.
Crayola has done a wonderful job with technology. One can now scan a favorite photo and turn them into coloring pages. So with that in mind, I am going to scan a photo of a little girl standing by her mother at Minot State University's commencement. As a faculty member, her mother is wearing her gown and hood which she earned by having a dream – which became reality. Once we have colored this picture, it is going on the fridge – her play fridge, where it will remind her every day that coloring books are an important part of building character and fulfilling dreams.
As the 64 box of Crayola crayons celebrates its 55th anniversary, take time to color with your child. We know that childhood experiences have a great impact on our voyage in life, and what could be better than giving a child a lasting, colorful memory of strength and knowledge applied first with color.

I think my approach to flower gardening is fairly typical among those who live in northern climes-- once winter's hold is broken, approach gardening with robust abandon! Then, as the days get longer and summer rolls along, garden less and less, in direct proportion to whatever minimum effort is needed to keep the weeds at bay. Don't get me wrong—I love my garden and, at a minimum, I visit it every day. But gardening is a lot of work and summer beckons with

After 2-5 months of hibernation, bears in the Juneau area will soon be getting up or are out of their dens already. Although hibernating, bears don't necessarily sleep the entire time. But, while in hibernation, they don't need to eat or drink—a good evolutionary survival strategy during winter when food is scarce. Long periods of inactivity seem normal to us when we think about bears, but what about humans?

House gas tax backer admits his 'timing was unfortunate'
CONCORD - The leading proponent of raising the state gas tax admitted Tuesday his "timing was unfortunate" when he referred to some of the proceeds as "the gift that keeps on giving."
An initial vote in the House had been scheduled for today, but Speaker Terie Norelli cancelled today's session based on forecasts of heavy snow. The gas tax vote was put off until next Wednesday.
Rep. David Campbell, D-Nashua, sent an email last Friday referencing money from the gas tax that will be used for the Fish and Game Department, the Department of Resources and Economic Development's trail fund and the state's general fund.
Critics suggested the statement showed that tax supporters wanted higher taxes for more than just highways and bridge work.
Former House speaker Bill O'Brien, R-Mont Vernon, was quick to criticize Campbell for his remark, calling it contrary to Campbell's "public posture that 'every dollar' will be going to roads."
"My comments were taken wrongly by some people," Campbell said in response to questions from members of the House Public Works and Highways Committee, which he chairs.
Campbell is the chief sponsor of the legislation, which would raise the state gas tax 15 cents over four years. The state constitution provides that money that goes into the highway fund can only be used for road projects. A 1967 state Supreme Court opinion ruled the gas tax is really a
toll paid for use of state roads, and not a tax.
The advisory opinion for the Legislature said since the state sets money aside to refund taxes collected on fuel used in off-road vehicles, that money is never part of the highway fund. Refund money that goes uncollected can be used for any purpose.
People who use gas in snowmobiles, boats and other off-road equipment can get a refund on the tax, but it has to be at least $10 - 55 gallons at the current rate - and they have to file a form found on an obscure page on the Department of Safety website. (See Page A1.)
Not a gift
Campbell said his email was intended to let the chairs of committees overseeing budgets that get unclaimed refund money know what to expect, since higher taxes would mean more money set aside for refunds.
Americans for Prosperity-New Hampshire said Tuesday that Campbell's comments "demonstrate his commitment to big government and a major disregard for New Hampshire taxpayers."
"Tax dollars are not a gift to the government. Tax money generated in this state represents the hard work of New Hampshire families and businesses and for Rep. Campbell to refer to taxes raised as 'bonus monies' is egregious and insulting," said Corey Lewandowski, AFP-NH state director.
Campbell accused the tax foes who seized on his comments of trying to stir up a controversy to take attention away from what he says is the need for money to fix roads and bridges.
"It doesn't change the issue; the issue is our roads and the issue is bridges. They are in bad, bad shape," Campbell said. "If we don't fund them, we are going to have a catastrophe on our hands; those who want to pick at anything will find some reason to be against it."
House Republican leader "Gene Chandler, R-Bartlett, suggested the back-and-forth between Campbell and tax foes sharpens the debate, but may not affect the way members of the House vote.
"I'm not sure it will change any minds; it might reinforce some people's positions who are thinking one way or the other," Chandler said. "He thought that was the best way to defend his bill and talk about it - it was probably a poor choice of words."
Public Works Committee Vice Chair John Cloutier, R-Claremont, said it was all a tempest in a teapot.
"Opponents are looking for anything they can use to discredit this bill, so they just jumped on it," Cloutier said. "Any one of us could make a mistake like that. They jumped on it - they're out to kill this bill."
Committee member Peter Ramsey, D-Manchester, who questioned Campbell about the controversial statements during a public session of the committee, said he wanted to satisfy himself that there was no plan to spend money touted as being for roads and bridges for some other purpose.
"If there was going to be a diversion, I would vote against it," Ramsey said.
The first vote on the gas tax bill is now scheduled for next Wednesday. Under House rules, since the bill raises a tax or fee, it must be referred to the Ways and Means Committee before receiving a final House vote.

About 2 weeks ago I had the privilege to participate in a 'youth/adult'waterfowl hunt sponsored by theSCDNR. It was my son's first duck hunt(age 14) and what a GREAT experience it was for the both of us.
At 5 am we met the DNR agent and waited for the others whohad been drawn for the hunt. The agent was not just courteous and professionalbut was very keen on helping create a spirit of outdoor enthusiasm for youth (waitingon the others we also got to ask questions on the deer, turkey, and bear populationsand hunting in our area).
The agent took us to our blind in a flooded cornfield –maintained beautifully for these hunts – and showed us where to place decoys and then whereto watch for their arrival (we got the wood duck hole!). (I am also a novice –having only been duck hunting 2 times before so all help is needed)
To see my son's face as the ducks started coming in at 6:45am was more than priceless. To watch him show discipline in waiting to shootmade me more than proud of him than I already was.
Our hunt was successful – maybe not measured in quantity ofducks harvested (1-wood, 1- mallard) -but we both consider it an experience ofa lifetime. Our only problem now is 'where' can we go next!
Also – DO "THANK" your DNR agents – from those that offerthe Hunter Education programs (we did it this year ) to those who manage the hunts andenforce the laws.

Spring 2000
Volume 4 Number 4
Defining the Mainstream
In regard to Professor James Moorheads article "Mainstream Protestants and the End of the World" in the winter 2000 issue, I think the use of the term "mainstream" or "mainline" is very unclear and probably erroneous as well, yet it is used extensively by the author. I sense that those who portray themselves as mainstream are really off the tracks, on a side road, and certainly departed from the main confessions of the church. Those in the mainstream certainly, if I understand the term, represent a minority of the Protestant church, and there is nothing "main" about them. When my family came to Seattle, I listened to twenty hours of tapes on the Book of Revelation by one of your trustees, Earl Palmer. These represented classical Reformed views. I consider them the leading view in Reformed circles. We should not bestow on deviationists the title of "mainstream."
Next time I am in the Princeton area I hope to purchase one of Nena
Bryanss sculptures; they were great. Also, I am glad you brought to our
attention [through inSpire] Gary Barckert, who does not live very far from
editors note
The terms "mainstream" and "mainline" are used by most historians and sociologists to denote those Protestant groups that formerly enjoyed a place of dominance and cultural prestige in American religion and life. The precise boundaries of this "mainstream" depend upon the period under discussion. For the period with which my essay was chiefly concerned (the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries), the mainstream would include Congregationalists, Presbyterians, Methodists, Baptists, Episcopalians, and probably the Disciples of Christ. Other groups might also arguably belong. It is, of course, a truism that such groups have within the last few decades lost their culturally privileged place and dwindled in numbers. Perhaps today they are more accurately styled "oldline" than "mainline." These were the meanings and assumptions that governed my articles use of the terms "mainstream" and "mainline." The Protestant leaders whom I have surveyed may indeed, as Mr. de Vries suggests, have deviated in some important particulars from "classical Reformed views." I tend to think he is right on that point. But that is neither the issue the article was intended to address nor the standard by which the terms "mainstream" and "mainline" are employed in current historical and sociological discourse.
From Where the Bell Tolls
One factual correction: A letter from alumnus Alan M. McPherson (64M) on page two of the winter 2000 issue refers to "the sonorous clang of the Miller Chapel bell."
I feel certain that Mr. McPhersons memory must have been hearing the
Alexander Hall bell, for, to the best of my knowledge, Miller Chapel never
had a bell.
editors note:
A Lesson in Grace
In appreciation of the contents and much-valued spirit found in copies of inSpire, I am enclosing a story concerning an incident I observed while a freshman in the class of Dr. Bruce Metzger in 1939. It has left me with a lifelong, profound respect for a dedicated Christian gentleman.
As a first-year student I was thrilled with all I had experienced at the Seminary, and held the Seminary professors in great awe. I was enrolled in a New Testament Greek class taught by Dr. Bruce Metzger. In the process of translating a passage, I became fascinated with the word "grace" and approached Dr. Metzger after class to ask for further clarification. "Grace," he informed me, "means forgiveness without justification, a condition in which forgiveness is given to another undeserved."
The fall semester had been underway about a month when on a Saturday morning I decided to walk from the Seminary campus to downtown Princeton. I had barely reached Nassau Street when the heavens opened up and a heavy downpour of rain threatened to inundate me as I passed Nassau Presbyterian Church.
Gathering my raincoat tightly about me, I proceeded to lean into the burst as I made my way eastward on the sidewalk. As I did so, I peered ahead of me, noting a man about fifty yards ahead walking in my direction. I recognized the man at once as Dr. Metzger. Suddenly, a student on a bicycle, also headed east, almost bumped me off the sidewalk as he passed. Riding bicycles on the sidewalks of Princeton was unlawful. Without warning, the student ran head-on into Dr. Metzger, knocking him down into a deepening puddle of water and mud.
Gaining his feet as quickly as possible, Dr. Metzger stepped over a couple of yards and tried to help the student regain his feet and pick up his bicycle. I then overheard some of their conversation, which was about the rarest I have heard in my lifetime. Dr. Metzger, instead of being angry at the irresponsible young man, began to apologize for being in the boys way and scattering his possessions.
The years have passed since this accident happened, sixty of them, but
hundreds of times my mind has brought back a living instance of
"grace" from the lips of a godly man and a true Christian.
Remembering Hugh Kerr
I was very disappointed with the article "Theology Today: A
Journal for the Millennium," which ran in the winter 2000 issue of inSpire. I am disappointed because the author failed to mention my
brother, Hugh T. Kerr Jr., who was an editor of Theology Today since its
inception. This just shows how easily and quickly a name fades from
memory. I think the author missed an opportunity to recognize one of
Princeton Seminarys devoted professors.
editors note:
Presbyterian Native American Churches
I wanted to call your attention to an error in the Class Notes section
of the winter 2000 edition of inSpire. Under the Class of 1987 it states
that "
Jill Robb Denison Paulson (86B) remains interim pastor of
the nations only Presbyterian Native American Church." The 1999
Native American Churches and Committees directory published by the
National Ministries Division lists well over one hundred Native American
PCUSA churches and chapels. In Grand Canyon Presbytery, where the Rev.
Paulson is doing her fine work, there are twenty-four.
editors note:
Black Seminarians History
I read with great interest your issue of inSpire [summer 1998] dedicated to the African American experience at PTS. I commend the editors for undertaking such a herculean task.
There were several facts, however, that were not included. The Association of Black Seminarians (ABS) played an immeasurable role in helping students of African descent make a positive adjustment to the life and culture of Princeton. ABS was also active in community service and social justice.
I recall that in 1972 members of the association responded to a cross burning by the Ku Klux Klan in the Princeton area. In the same year, members participated in a demonstration against the Atlantic and Pacific (A&P) Company in response to unfair hiring practices.
And any history of PTS should note the election of the first African
American student body president, Charles A. Curtis, a member of the Class
of 1973. I had the pleasure of serving in that capacity for the 19711972
school year. Princeton Seminary is a wonderful institution with a great
deal to offer students. I hope it will continue its commitment to all
persons, regardless of race or sex.

Skip to comments.Why the GOP Should Fear a Romney Presidency
Posted on 10/24/2012 10:50:04 PM PDT by Beaten Valve
What kind of president would Mitt Romney be? And what should we expect from Barack Obama's second term? To answer these questions, I'll draw on the work of Yale political scientist Stephen Skowronek, who has argued that presidents' fortunes depend on how they establish their political legitimacy in the particular circumstances under which which they assume power.
In this essay, I'll discuss the prospects for a Romney presidency; in the next, I'll discuss the second term of an Obama presidency.
(Excerpt) Read more at theatlantic.com ...
What I fear is four more years of Zero!
"Part of Romney's problem is that the Republican Party's policy solutions seem — at least outside the ranks of the faithful — increasingly ideological and out of touch. No matter what conditions the nation faces, the Republican prescription is to lower taxes, increase defense spending, and weaken the social safety net. These ideas may have made sense in the 1980s. But by 2012, they seem as irrelevant as the Democratic Party's arguments must have seemed to many Americans in 1979."
All I know is, electing a president who can hide behind a race card to escape impeachment is the worst possible thing ever to happen to America.
pure 100% unadulturated bull hockey
The Atlantic - stopped reading right there.
I'm certain it's all rubbish.
Agree! ...crockakaka...
I think Romney won't be able to keep many of his promises.
I think his first priority will be to get the budget deficits under control and he is going to have to expend a lot of political capital to get the entitlement and defense cuts.
However, he can do a lot to help the economy by just rolling back a lot of the Obama regulations and doing everything possible to promote energy independence, which will create thousands of high paying jobs.
I think if Romney went all-in just on concentrating on energy development, that will have a massive multiplier effect.
I don't think he will be able to roll back Obamacare, but he could probably make a deal with the Democrat Senate to reform the more unpopular parts and keep the rest.
As far as I am concerned, I am just happy that Obama won't be able to appoint anymore federal judges.
If he can get the tax cuts, I will be more happy, but I am not counting on it.
Utter drivel lacking even so much as an adequate left margin.
You know the libs are fully expecting to get thrashed when
they grudgingly acknowledge the possibility of a Republican
win.. but, disregard its real likelihood.
Before the first debate the idea was utterly inconceivable.
No one knows what Romney's politics are, America will just have to wait and learn them as they are revealed.
Barry has to go.
He cannot possibly be worse for America than a neo-anti-colonialist in the WH for a second term.
Romney can NOT be not worse than the "Flavor Flav" of Chicago HoodsRAts running Washington D.C...
A foreign exchange student(Obama) skating thru the hallowed halls of Harvard and Columbia probably on the down-low and so far over his head as a President.. Scoop Dog would be a better President.. Assuming a position he is not qualified for.. personally suited for.. or even intellectually capable of..
And the main stream media assuming the position of a sheep to a horny Sand Monkey.. America has gone completely crazy.. Eye rolling drooling retarded..
America has become a cartoon.. Toontown..
And I AM not amused..
I AM REPOSTING BECAUSE 100% OF ALL FREEPERS NEED TO VOTE ROMNEY/RYAN THIS NOVEMBER. To all the FR bloggers that have posted that they wont be voting this election. Romney might not have been your 1st choice but for Gods sake do what you need to do to get Obama out of the role of Americas commander in chief. In the final debate with Romney and his opponent: Obama looked to me like he was seething with hate for Romney. To Obama, Romney represents conservatives, republicans, Tea Party members, and all who oppose him. Thats what I saw...a man who hates not only Romney but more than half of America. Romney did not show this hate back to Obama but did talk to him in a stern voice like when he talked to him concerning his apology tour. It wasnt hate but it was like a man correcting another who is in error. Striking contrast how Obama spoke with such hatred, attacks, a petulant face, an angry stare. God save America from this hateful man. Do your duty America, vote Obama out of office.
The only thing I would add is "puckey." Bulls don't play "hockey."
Thanks for the laugh. The kid who wrote this piece is going nowhere.
Great post! I'm pretty much in agreement with your take. I'm not expecting miracles from Romney, but I think he'll roll back the worst of the Obama policies, and restore confidence to the private sector in the process. It's not perfect, but it's a start.
Why not, I wonder? The House will definitely vote to repeal. If there is a GOP-majority Senate, every candidate that I'm aware of has pledged to vote for repeal and McConnell has said he'll get it done (and that he only needs 51 votes to do it).
With a GOP Congress, why wouldn't Romney be able to rollback Obamacare?
"What I fear is four more years of Zero!"
Articles like these will be increasing in the next two weeks. It's one of the ways we know Romney is winning.
"In this essay, I'll discuss the prospects for a Romney presidency; in the next, I'll discuss the second term of an Obama presidency."
...and I'm guessing that his article on a second Obama Presidency probably won't be published until after the election.
Funny post
When Romney Obamas the GOP you may not be happy.
Well, I am assuming that the Democrats are keeping the Senate.
And unless some Democrats break free and vote to overturn it, it will remain the law of the land,
Republicans reduce Tax RATES, they do not lower Taxes. By the end of the Reagan Administration, Tax Revenue to the Federal Treasury doubled, even though the top Tax Rate was under 31%.
The same situation occurred with the G.W. Bush Tax RATE Cuts. Federal Tax Revenue increased 35% between 2003 (full implementation) and 2007.
No matter, the lies about the Bush Tax Cuts "for the rich" are never refuted. It's like Bush's name cannot be uttered by any Republican, except Fred Thompson.
As far as the other points, providing for the Common Defense is part of the Constitution and the "safety net" has become a Hammock.
I can accept that we are in a "Reaganite regime," which followed a ~48 year reign of FDR's New Deal regime. Ok, but you can see the author's strong liberal in much unsubtle bs he spews. But the worse thing is the notion that Obama could be considered a reconstructionist president (starts a new regime like FDR & Reagan). The Obamaite regime? A new regime represents a profound change to something new, but clearly O is a throwback to the old, to the New Deal, the New Deal on Steroids. Remember that things like Obamacare were a dream of the New Dealers for decades. Unless the Obama Regime is full socialism, the complete collectivist reorganization of society, O is old hat.
Yet I think a new regime is in offing soon. But it will be a radical and conservative regime, modified Ron Paul actually. The conservative coalition will ultimately break up, as the Republican brand is tarnished (it's seen as country club, not Joe the Plumber) and there are too many irreconcilable factions among the Repubs. There needs to be a new way to reach a majority of the population... a new majority. It's not Ron Paul himself, but his (and Tea Party) ideas (though with a stronger but not neocon foreign policy, and a more moderate and pragmatic [and sometimes even progressive though still essentially libertarian] domestic policy), that will form a new regime. Reagan didn't go far enough, he didn't shed the heavy chains of the federal welfare and ponzi scheme entitlement state. But, in the new regime, we will understand that not only are there practical limits to idealism, but that innovative solutions involving some govt are not to be ruled out. Now, of course, we have to count on Romney to lead us out of the New Deal / Socialist mess O has wrought. My 2 cents.
The GOP, not so much. The TEA party? I think we have more than a little to fear of a Romney presidency. I hope I'm wrong. But I don;t think I will be. However it beats the alternative by a country mile.
I don't see that happening.
About 2/3's of the way through I figured the guy was just a pseudo intellectual Social Psychologist with a minor in Keynesian Economics and a concentration in Socialist Diversity Studies.
For each of the thousands of what pass for ideas in this weave, there is an infinite permutation of relationships contradictory to every single other version of what passes for an idea in this mesh.
And no president has ever defined his presidency by who he is (or isn't) as a man, but is only a cog, passively defined by another endless criss crossing permutation of stages of sections of micro- and macro- cyclic historical socio-political pressures that resonate like a dull semi-echo of a badly detuned player piano sounding out a musical interpretation of Barack Obama's domesto-foreign New Patriotic Economics in 27 Movements in C-flat-flat-diminished-thirteenth-sharp-eleven (Subdominant Minor) with Clarinet.
Then I come to read that he's a Constitutional Law Professor with a moderate interest in technology.
Why is it that those who least understand elegantly simple nature of the Constitution are teaching it at the highest levels of education? I recently had to put of with 4 years of this species of thought from another esteemed professor of Constitutional Law.
This piece has just conveyed in 100 paragraphs an intricately complex and self-contradictory deconstruction of what a hung over 10th grader having read the Constitution's preamble for the first time late last night would express perfectly in a half sentence while avoiding the logical errors.
I look forward to reviewing Part 2: An Obama Second First Term.
Yes and for sure. . .these stories diminishing Mitt; are counter productive. We can effect 'change' a whole lot easier and where necessary - with Mitt. We cannot do same 'without' him.
There will be no options, opportunities with Obama in charge; make that, complete charge; for the 'man who would be king'.
I'll grant the Senate races appear disappointing, but I suspect that's an illusion.
1. Recall that all the presidential polls have over-sampled Democrats -- understating the likely Romney vote. Many of the Senate polls are tantalizingly close -- just 1-2 pts. And I don't doubt the Senatorial polls are skewed in the same fashion.
2. Romney appears to be gathering momentum and could be on the verge of breaking out, on the cusp of a landslide. If that happens, his coattails will be sufficient to capture a majority of the Senate.
I'm guessing 53-54 seats -- not as many as I'd like, but better than the current pessimistic projections.
I like this position regarding the GOP:
Remove the Obama regime, and then we can argue...
Let's start with the more critical threat. No one; No Repub; can 'out Obama' - so to speak - when it comes to destroying our Country.
There is at hand; only one 'Best Bet', FOR America; and so it is; we all need to 'step up to the vote'. . .
Thanks for your earlier post, because I went to do some research to check out the Senate races, and I had assumed earlier than we weren't as competitive, but we are actually very competitive to take back the Senate.
It isn't a sure thing, but it looks very probable that it can happen.
My gut tells me that we are going to win, but by how much, I am not sure.
We have a traitor we need to throw out of office. We might not like the tools available, but fight him and defeat him we must. This war is for the very survival of our nation. They need to get with the program or get the heck out of the way. They are like nasty, petulant children who need to grow the heck up.
Thank you. This article just cured my insomnia. Good night.
I'd much rather have to wrestle with my brother every day than fight with the home invasion gang bangers from across the tracks!
I have zeal, and relish the thought of 'rats voting for 0zero, getting a Romney presidency, and having to wait till next year to have to see what is in it.
Please, Brer Balkin, don't throw me in dat dere briar patch.
I love the smell of "You Republicans will be sorry" in the air. It's the smell of Victory.
"The Atlantic" ... is that rag still in business? The 70's called and they want their magazine back!
He may be able to get some stuff pushed through, but we'll have to unseat Dingy Harry as the top flea-bag in the Senate. On the flip side, just stopping all the grenades that Zero keeps throwing will be an improvement all in itself.
Balkin = Yale professor.
Need I say more?
Not that anyone gives crap but my vote for Mitt Milquetoast will be the last for me as a Republican. I plan on switching to Independent after this election. I cannot be in a party that has shifted to the left of where the Deomcratic Party was just 30 years ago. JFK was to the right of Mitt mAsshole. It's a party that has very little respect for me and my values and is ashamed of me. I am tired of being abused and taken for granted. AMF Republican Party.
You are so harsh. I thought the font was acceptable.
FOUR MORE YEARS OF obama LEADS TO DESTRUCTION OF AMERICA... FOUR YEARS OR ROMNEY MEANS AN OCCASIONAL HEARTBURN ATTACK. FU LEFTARDS!
They do not get the supply side economic dynamic... BECAUSE IT WORKS AND NOTHING THE LEFT BELIEVES IN DOES!!! INCLUDING THEIR OWN VOTERS!
"Romney has a solid record"
Tell me that Romney is the only alternative to Obama but please don't try to portray Romney's record as anything but a liberal.

How many sacks?
We got our "6-PACK" - time to work on a CASE!
Two was Ben fault, holding on to the ball. One was clearly and was pointed out by the crew calling the game.
Gilbert was getting beat in the passing game early ... led to some HARD hits on Ben. But, it appears he regrouped as the game went on.
besides the first quarter, the oline played decent the rest of the game. adams is a pushover in pass protection and is exactly where he needs to be. the bench.
The OL isn't as bad as advertised.
The QB play, the indecision of the QB play to be more exact, and the inability for our WR's to get open consistantly, has made the OL look much worse.
But more often than not, they give the QB enough time to make a play, if the other aspects of the O are doing their bit.

If you have a Costco in your area you might want to give them a try. The one in my area sells the Garofalo buff mozz($13 for 1.1lbs). I think I remember Craig saying he buys his from Costco as well.
David - Is that the Waltham Costco or the north shore one?John
Waltham. It's right across from where the vegetable walk-in refrigerator is. My friend who works there told me Wednesdays are they shipment days. They always run out of the GBM. I haven't been there in a couple months but I can check for you if you want, it's down the street from my house.
Anyone know of or have tried to get American made Buffalo mozz?I found a source in Vermont that claims to be the only cheese maker in the US using buffalo milk but man they are expensive! 10 dollar handling fees, 40 dollar min order etc. etc. etc.... I would sure like to find a good American artisan cheese maker that was reliable and not crazy expensive. Any ideas?Scot

THE ORCHESTRA OF THE S.E.M. ENSEMBLE AT PAULA COOPER GALLERY ON TUESDAY, DECEMBER 13Posted by s21concerts in Concert Announcement, tags: Cage, contemporary, experimental, Kotik, Nono, SEM Ensemble
World Premiere by Kate Soper, with works by John Cage, Giovanni Gabrieli, Luigi Nono, and Petr Kotik
With Kate Soper (voice), Conrad Harris (violin), Tom Chiu (violin), and Petr Kotik (conductor)
The S.E.M. Ensemble, founded and directed by Petr Kotik, will present its annual Christmas concert at Paula Cooper Gallery's main space in Chelsea on Tuesday, December 13 (8 pm). The program was designed to accommodate Mark di Suvero's large sculpture exhibited in the gallery and will feature compositions for which the consideration of space is integral to their performances. The music will be performed around the artwork, with individual musicians or groups of players strategically placed in various parts of the room.
The concert will feature SEM in John Cage's Atlas Eclipticalis (1961-62), performed simultaneously with Cage's Fontana Mix and Aria (1958), and presented as a preview of the SEM Cage centennial concerts in 2012. Highlights will also include the New York premiere of Kate Soper's cipher (2011); Luigi Nono's "hay que caminar" soñando (1989) for two violins, performed by Conrad Harris and Tom Chiu; and Kotik's Kontrabandt (1967), a four-channel work commissioned by the Electronic Music Studio of the West German Radio (WDR) in Cologne, Germany. Vocalist Kate Soper will be the soloist in Cage's Aria as well as in her own work.
Since its first Christmas concert at Paula Cooper Gallery at midnight on December 24 1984, it has become a tradition for SEM to include an early music piece, and the December 13 program will also feature the Renaissance Venetian composer Giovanni Gabrieli whose music, designed for the unusual spatial configuration of St. Mark's Basilica in Venice, requires musicians to be placed in various ends of the basilica's gallery. SEM will perform two sections from his Sacrae Symphoniae (1597), scored for three consorts, performed here with brass and strings.
Petr Kotik: Kontrabandt
Giovanni Gabrieli: Canzon a 12 and Canzon Quarti Toni

Coho Salmon Life History
Adult coho salmon enter fresh water from September through January in order to spawn. In the short coastal streams of California, migration usually begins between mid-November and mid- January. Coho salmon move upstream after heavy rains have opened the sand bars that form at the mouths of many California coastal streams, but may enter larger rivers earlier. On the Klamath River, coho salmon begin entering in early to mid-September and reach a peak in late September to early October. On the Eel River, adult coho salmon return four to six weeks later than on the Klamath River. Arrival in the upper reaches of these streams generally peaks in November and December. Timing varies by stream and/or flow.
Spawning and Egg Development
Generally, coho salmon spawn in smaller streams than do Chinook salmon. In California, spawning occurs mainly from November to January, although it can extend into February or March if drought conditions are present. In the Klamath and Eel rivers, spawning occurs in November and December. Females usually choose spawning sites near the head of a riffle, just below a pool, where the water changes from a laminar to a turbulent flow and there is a medium to small gravel substrate. The female digs a redd (nest) by turning partly on her side and using powerful, rapid movements of the tail to dislodge the gravels, which are transported a short distance downstream by the current. Repeating this action creates an oval-to-round depression at least as deep and as long as the fish. Eggs and milt (sperm) are released into the redd, where, because of the hydrodynamics of the redd, they tend to remain until they are buried.
Approximately one-hundred or more eggs are deposited in each redd. The fertilized eggs are buried by the female digging another redd just upstream. The flow characteristics of the redd location usually ensure good aeration of eggs and embryos, and the flushing of waste. Larger coho salmon produce more eggs and there is a definite tendency for fecundity to increase from California to Alaska. Average coho salmon fecundities, as determined by various researchers working on streams in British Columbia, Washington, and Oregon, range from 1,983 to 2,699 and average 2,394 eggs per female. The fecundity of coho salmon in Washington streams ranged from 1,440 to 5,700 eggs for females that were 44 cm to 72 cm in length.
In California, eggs incubate in the gravels from November through April. The incubation period is inversely related to water temperature. California coho salmon eggs hatch in about forty-eight days at 48°F, and thirty-eight days at 51.3°F. After hatching, the alevins (hatchlings) are translucent in color. This is the coho salmon's most vulnerable life stage, during which they are susceptible to siltation, freezing, gravel scouring and shifting, desiccation, and predation. Alevins remain in the interstices of the gravel for two to ten weeks until their yolk sacs have been absorbed, at which time their color changes to that more characteristic of fry. The fry are silver to golden with large, vertical, oval, dark parr marks along the lateral line that are narrower than the spaces between them.
Fry and Juveniles
Fry emerge from the gravel between March and July, with peak emergence occurring from March to May, depending on when the eggs were fertilized and the water temperature during development. They seek out shallow water, usually moving to the stream margins, where they form schools. As the fish feed heavily and grow, the schools generally break up and individual fish set up territories. At this stage, the fish are termed parr (juveniles). As the parr continue to grow and expand their territories, they move progressively into deeper water until July and August, when they inhabit the deepest pools. This is the period when water temperatures are highest, and growth slows. Food consumption and growth rate decrease during the winter months of highest flows and coldest temperatures (usually December to February). By March, parr again begin to feed heavily and grow rapidly.
Rearing areas used by juvenile coho salmon are low-gradient coastal streams, lakes, sloughs, side channels, estuaries, low-gradient tributaries to large rivers, beaver ponds, and large slackwaters. The most productive juvenile habitats are found in smaller streams with low-gradient alluvial channels containing abundant pools formed by large woody debris. Adequate winter rearing habitat is important to successful completion of coho salmon life history.
Smolt Emigration and Coho in the Ocean
After one year in fresh water, smolts begin migrating downstream to the ocean in late March or early April. In some years emigration can begin prior to March and can persist into July. Peak downstream migration in California generally occurs from April to early June. Factors that affect the onset of emigration include the size of the fish, flow conditions, water temperature, dissolved oxygen (DO) levels, day length, and the availability of food. Low stream productivity, due to low nutrient levels or cold water temperatures, can contribute to slow growth, potentially causing coho salmon to postpone emigration. There may be other factors that contribute to a freshwater residency of longer than one year, such as late spawning, which can produce fish that are too small at the time of smolting to migrate to sea.
The amount of time coho salmon spend in estuarine environments is variable, and the time spent there is less in the southern portion of their range. Upon entry into the ocean, the immature salmon remain in inshore waters, congregating in schools as they move north along the continental shelf. Most remain in the ocean for two years; however, some return to spawn after the first year, and these are referred to as grilse or jacks. Data on ocean distribution of California coho salmon are sparse, but it is believed that the coho salmon scatter and join schools from Oregon and possibly Washington.
