Hunting Rules Get Review
Wed., Oct. 1, 1997, midnight
As the Washington Fish and Game Commission gets ready to decide whether to end or revise a 15-year-old agreement with the Colville Tribes, it's apparent that the Indians and the non-Indians who own land within the reservation are poles apart in their interpretation of laws pertaining to hunting on the reservation.
"The Colville Tribes are not a treaty tribe," commented Joe Peone, director of the tribe's fish and wildlife department. "However, we still, in fact, do have reserved rights to hunt areas outside of the boundaries of the current reservation.
"Also, (tribal) members are not precluded from hunting non-member owned lands either on or off the reservation. Under tribal law, they must first obtain landowner permission to hunt on private land both within and outside of the reservation."
Non-Indian owners of land within the reservation maintain they have a right to hunt big-game animals on their own land. They contend they were treated unlawfully and unfairly by the 1982 Fish and Wildlife Commission that made an agreement with the tribe that ended big-game hunting by the non-Indian landowners.
Tribal officials and non-Indian owners of land within the boundaries of the reservation are expected to attend the commission's meeting Friday at the Best Western Inn at Ellensburg.
The commission says in its agenda for the meeting that it "will consider adoption of policy principles to be incorporated in a formal agreement with the Colville tribe and consider delegation of authority to the director to write and sign the agreement."
To many non-Indians, the statement is an indication that the commission is ready to sign an amended agreement with the tribe that will continue to ban big-game hunting by non-Indian landowners within the reservation boundaries.
If the commission decides to withdraw from the agreement, a proposal for repeal of a law closing all lands within the reservation to the trapping and hunting of all wild animals, grouse and doves will be presented to the commission at its December meeting.
On the other hand, if the commission decides to approve the proposed policy, a new agreement will be written and signed by the Fish and Game Department's director. Then the commission will consider adoption of a new law reflecting the agreement at a meeting before next April.
Peone, who requested that the Colville Tribe's side of the controversy be presented, said in a letter to me that, "Ownership of the land does not convey fishing or hunting rights to the landowner."
"The fish and wildlife of this country are considered public resources that belong to everyone, regardless of where they occur," he said.
"Hunting and fishing is considered a privilege, not a right, for all U.S. citizens, with the sole exception of Indians to specified areas. Why? Because their ancestors were once the sovereigns in what is now the United States and they reserved these rights through treaties and Executive Orders.
"Federal law views that these rights are reserved by Indians and not granted to them by the government. These rights are usually tied to a particular area such as a reservation or usual and accustomed areas."
Peone said that many non-Indians who own property within the reservation accept that they can't hunt big game on their property.
"In fact," he said, "they appreciate that the reservation is not overrun with hunters." And he added that there are non-Indian landowners who bought property on the reservation to get away from hunting pressure they've experienced on their land elsewhere.
He emphasized that the Colville Indians "will always maintain that their reservation was first and foremost set aside for the use of the Colville tribal members and their families."
"Where there are surplus resources that the tribes do not utilize, the tribes will consider providing opportunities for non-members to enjoy such surplus."
Now it's up to the Fish and Wildlife Commission to make its decision whether to withdraw from the agreement made with the Colvilles in 1982, to continue the agreement as it's written or to amend the agreement.
If it continues to ban big-game hunting by owners of land within the reservation, it almost certainly will be for political expediency. It will sacrifice the rights of a few for the benefit of many non-Indians who now fish and hunt on the reservation and along Lake Roosevelt.
Many Washington citizens, including some people who served on the 1982 commission and some top level Fish and Wildlife Department officials, then and now, believe that the right decision is to withdraw from the agreement.

On occasion, TMS scours the globe for new swag. Thanks to a few too many Old Spice SWAG commercials and a few too many songs by rappers that use the title, SWAGGER is becoming the most overused word in America.
As a result, I've navigated the world and now I believe that I have found 盗品 - also known as Japanese SWAG.
In January, American singer Jero took home the Best New Artist award at the 50th Japan Record Awards ceremony. Jero (aka Jerome White, Jr.), who hails from Pittsburgh, rocketed to fame in 2008 with his smash debut single, "Umiyuki" (Ocean Snow). His maternal grandmother taught him how to sing enka music, a style akin to American country music, where aging crooners dressed in kimonos belt out sappy ballads about love gone wrong over tracks laden with heavy orchestration.
Typically, the title of SWAG is usually reserved for those that exemplify an appearance, style or manner that sets him or herself apart. After watching Jero drop a few melodies that captured the amazement of the Japanese crowd and judges (not sure if there was a Simon equivalent), it became clear that dude is gifted; and it was a shirt that Jero wore that memorialized his late grandmother's face emblazoned on it that mad me say... Now that's SWAG!
(Warning: Jero's songs will most likely never make it to your iPod - this is for
entertainment informational purposes only.)
Jero appearing on a Japanese television show. Note the reaction from the show's panel of guests!
In other news, a native Japanese pop star was attacked, beaten and robbed... by a bunch of gangster Swedes. No, I don't make this stuff up.

After To Heart, bishoujo game company Leaf/Aquaplus made Comic Party. It was a moderate success, and for good reason. It is about a generally positive outlook on the realities of Japanese otaku culture, through a bishoujo game, and the main focus of course is doujinshi.
As some of you know, doujinshi is basically "fan comics" made by fans for fans. They are usually of the ero nature, and is visibly seen whenever there are anime and comic conventions. They also usually parody or purposely base their material on existing popular anime, manga, or game series. The Comic Party game and anime series highlights a group of individuals who are into these kinds of stuff, as well as give a viewpoint on how outsiders think about them.
The first Comic Party anime was a simple story about this guy named Kazuki and his entry into the world of doujinshi. Part of it is because he likes drawing, the other part is because of his friend Taishi's plans for world domination. The bishoujos of the game are featured somehow, but the anime is mostly Kazuki's viewpoint and story. Dunno if this had gone well with Comic Party fans, although I liked it quite a bit.
Now, can you believe that Comic Party Revolution was originally a 2-episode OVA? For some reason (maybe sales went well, or maybe fans crave for more), Comic Party Revolution had gone extended to 3 episodes… and then 4… and then now an entire 13-episode TV series run! Isn't that amazing? Whether fan approval or sales made Aquaplus deliver a half-season worth of Comic Party, it's all good for me! Why?
First, the animation is great! All the girls look beautiful and are consistently animated. Very, very unlike the horrible variety of To Heart ~Forget my Memories~. Also, because of its doujinshi nature, there are bound to be parodies and spoofs right? Comic Party Revolution has LOTS of them! Everything from basic doujinshi and cosplaying to even entire episodes devoted to parodying numerous anime, manga, games, and other Japanese culture stuff! Wanna see a Cardcaptor Sakura parody? Wanna see To Heart 2's Konomi Yuzuhara before the anime comes? How about an entire episode dedicated to baseball and tennis TV parodies? Want a direct reference to Gundam SEED again? Or maybe delve into action and horror? Everything gets mixed up! What's more, each character gets her own time to shine! There are entire sequences or episodes dedicated to an specific character, so fans of each girl would definitely be delighted. Comic Party Revolution may not be too story based as opposed to the first series, but it's definitely a "very entertaining show". That's what matters most.
This anime has one of the most stylish opening sequences I have seen from this genre. Also, the OP/ED songs are so great I have been anticipating them since over two years ago! (it only did get released during the 2005 TV series). The music may be forgettable but it complements each scene just right.
If you crave for a funnier, more colorful and slightly more positive version of Genshiken, Comic Party Revolution is the anime for you. Don't forget to get the original Comic Party anime too, and try to play the game if you can. I can say that this is my personal favorite out of all the current series ending this season. Everything in this series has gone just right, I'm really, really satisfied with what Aquaplus has done this time (a better To Heart and more Comic Party please!!!). Oh, did I see a "To Be Continued?" sign at the end? I HOPE SO! I hope you watch and enjoy it, too.

Ah you got me watching this now… I only have the first episode though, I really wish I had more bandwith a month! =)

BeschreibungBreak free from this subtle destroyer and reclaim a life of passion and purpose.
Pythons have an interesting way of killing their prey. They constrict it until it can no longer breathe, literally suffocating the life out of it. In the spirit realm Satan often works in the same way, slowly slithering his way into our lives, attempting to choke the very life out of us.
The python spirit can squeeze the joy out of your worship and prayers. It can pressure you to keep quiet when God wants you to speak up. And it can steal the peace of knowing that you belong to God. But there is a way to defeat him. You don't have to become his prey.
The Spirit of Python helps you understand the strategies of this subtle destroyer, how he works, how to detect him, and how to break his hold from your life. You can learn to:
* Recognize the early warning signs that you are under attack
* Find the ways you may have unknowingly given him access into your home
* Bring God's deliverance and restoration into every area of your life
We are in the middle of an unseen spiritual war. God wants to break the coils of the serpent off of your life. He wants to help you breathe again.

Medemblik is one of the oldest town by the IJsselmeer coast in North Holland. There you will find several marinas, small streets and shops, cosy restaurants, several museums and the old castle Radboud. The town centre is about 2 km away from the park and within easy reach on foot or by bicycle. Bungalow Park De Vlietlanden actually lies in the municipality Wervershoof, but on the border of Medemblik. The park is 55 km from Amsterdam, Schiphol Airport, and the historic towns of Hoorn and Enkhuizen are both 20 km away. In Enkhuizen you will find a fairy tale wonderland for children and museum park Zuiderzee Museum, where authentic buildings from the former Zuiderzee area like a church, a school, a smokehouse, and residential buildings from the surrounding fishing villages are located. The North Sea is a half an hour drive with villages like Schagen, Bergen, Schoorl, etc. Alkmaar takes 40 minutes to drive with every Friday cheese market 10-12 during summer.
Golf: Near the bungalow park De Vlietlanden is the golf course De Vlietlanden. This 18-hole golf course is a public golf course and is open year round.

I got this shot in Sarnath,the woman was walking towards me,her face was covered with a muffler,because of the cold weather.
[Sarnath (Hindi: सारनाथ) or Sārnātha (also Mrigadava, Migadāya, Rishipattana, Isipatana) is the deer park where Gautama Buddha first taught the Dharma, and where the Buddhist Sangha came into existence through the enlightenment of Kondanna. Sarnath is located 13 kilometres north-east of Varanasi, in Uttar Pradesh, India. Singhpur, a village one km away from the site, was the birth place of Shreyansanath, the eleventh Tirthankara of Jainism, and a temple dedicated to him, is an important pilgrimage site.]

A group representing the drinks industry yesterday announced a code of practice for the naming, labelling and promotion of alcoholic "soft" drinks.
But the move was immediately dismissed as "toothless" by Labour's Consumer Affairs spokesman, Nigel Griffiths.
The Portman Group said yesterday that all the leading brewers had agreed to a code of practice, in the wake of criticism that the marketing of such drinks could lead to a rise in under-age drinking. But although the main breweries agreed that a code should be introduced, they have not yet agreed to the proposals put forward yesterday by the group's chairman, Dr John Rae.
These included a ban on characters or designs likely to attract younger people and a clear distinction between drinks associated with childhood and alcoholic drinks. This would affect the most successful brand, Bass's Hooch, which is marketed with a smiling lemon. It sells around 2 million bottles and cans a week.
A Bass spokeswoman, Lesley Allman, said: "We are keen that a code of practice is put in place but it would be premature to comment on specific proposals."
Mr Griffiths attacked the proposed code for failing to control drinks marketed by smaller brewers, who are not Portman members. Only two of the 30 "soft" drinks that Mr Griffiths has identified - Hooch and Aqua V - are manufactured by group members. "The Government has washed its hands of this problem," he said. "Advertising rules over alcohol have been flouted, the Portman Group is a toothless group and the Government is in the pockets of the brewing industry."
A Home Office spokesman confirmed that the Government was "looking at the problem as a matter of urgency".

Great Tips to Make Overseas Education Easy For You
With the exposure of the globalization as well as the developing mindset of the students, a large number of them are going abroad to study further. If you are trying to work your skills or are trying to develop your chances for future, overseas education can come in handy a lot. Several overseas education consultants in Chandigarh provide assistance in looking for the right college as well as course. Along with taking their help, one can apply to the right college for further studies. However, a student has to face several other things in foreign countries while studying there. Here are a couple of tips that can help you to deal with rest of things over there:
- Dealing with culture: every country is different from the other. Living in United States is completely different from the experience you will have in Singapore. Therefore, you must assess yourself personally before starting preparation to leave for the country. Do not rely on the culture shown in television series. You must try to discuss about it from your overseas education consultant.
- Go with interest instead of popularity: if you really want to succeed from the education in foreign country, try to go with your interest instead of the popularity of the college. You will have to live there, deal with different people, which is not possible if you do not like it there. You must be interested in the college, course and people.
- Give your English tests: while applying in a foreign country, every student has to clear the IELTS or TOEFL tests. Confirm about which is applicable in your college and prepare of it well with TOEFL or IELTS coaching in Chandigarh. Preparation of the test is not easy so do not take it lightly. Try to work on your English skills at least 6 months before the examination.
- Comfortable ambience: not all the colleges are capable of working with the foreign students hence it can be quite tough o study over there. You must confirm whether the college has a suitable environment for foreign students or not. You can confirm this from the college administration as well as your overseas education consultants in Chandigarh.
It is better to collect all the information about the college as well as the country before going there. You must be sure about everything before taking the step ahead. Apart from this, you should also try to collect details of the native students studying over there or if there is any particular group for the students, where you can interact with your local people.

Compassion and Responsibility for Action
An act of compassion is often an act that restores balance…The compassionate person tries to resolve problems by rebalancing. Sometimes the action required is gentle. Sometimes it must be violent. Those who are skillful at doing the right thing at the right time and in the right proportion are said to be superior among people: their actions are flawless and seamless.
To accept the importance of balance in our lives is to acknowledge consequences. Retribution follows wrongdoing. This does not happen because there is some karmic police agency ready to mete out punishment for the slightest infraction. Nor will the gods and devils pursue you for all your misdeeds.
There is retribution because when you do bad things, you create misery that remains attached to you in some way or another. Perhaps someone will come back to take out their resentment on you, or perhaps you will make some future mistake because of your shortsighted behaivor. Selfishness isolates you from others because you cease to care about even simple communication. Gradually your thinking will change, to the point that you cannot even convceive of what you are doing wrong, and so you will fall by your own folly. No one – except your own mind – is recording anyting. But that is devestating enough. "Divine justice" is the web of flaws that we wrap our lives in. There is no heaven, and there is no hell. There doesn't need to be. Our hubris is the quintessential form of retribution. We create our own suffering.

If the Celtics draft UCLA standout Lonzo Ball this spring, his father would probably be disappointed.
In an interview Thursday on Dale & Holley with Keefe, LaVar Ball said his preference is for Lonzo to wind up with their hometown Lakers.
If the Celtics draft UCLA standout Lonzo Ball this spring, his father would be probably be disappointed.
In an interview Thursday on Dale & Holley with Keefe, LaVar Ball said his preference is for Lonzo to wind up with their hometown Lakers.
"I want him to be a Laker. But that's just my opinion," he said. "It wouldn't be like, 'Oh man he gotta go to Boston.' I'd love him to stay in LA. But that's just me though."
LaVar Ball went on to say he wants his son to play for the Lakers, because he wants to keep the family together.
"It's not about me liking [the Celtics] or disliknig them. It's just that we're west coast guys," he said. "I'd love for him to stay on the west coast where his brothers can see him all of the time. We're a real big family. That's just the only difference. But like I said, my son will play for any team on the fact that his goal was to make it to the NBA. So it doesn't matter what team he plays for."
After erasing a 14-point deficit, the Celtics couldn't put a lid on Milwaukee's inside scoring and came up short in the final minute of regulation.
After erasing a 14-point deficit, the Celtics couldn't put a lid on Milwaukee's inside scoring and came up short in the final minute of regulation.
Celtics made two defensive stops in the final minute — one by Al Horford against Bucks All-Star Giannis Antetokounmpo and another that was followed by a 24-second violation — and pulled to within one point (101-100). Just when you thought the Celtics had one more stop left in them, Bucks rookie Malcolm Brogdon hit a 16-foot jumper as the shot clock expired that gave the Bucks a three-point lead with three ticks left.
In the final play of the night, Boston's inbound pass to Isaiah Thomas was deflected and ended up in the hands of Marcus Smart, who double-pumped a desperation 3-pointer that was nowhere near the rim as time expired. The Bucks defeated the Celtics, 103-100 and are now tied with the Hawks for fifth place in the Eastern Conference.
Meanwhile, the Celtics are now in a virtual tie with the Cavaliers for the top spot. Bucks snapped a four-game winning streak.
The C's had a hard time trying to contain Antetokounmpo as he cruised to 22 points on 8-of-17 shots. He led four Bucks in double figures, getting help from Khris Middleton (19 points), Brogdon (16 points) and Greg Monroe (16 points).
Thomas dropped a game-high 32 points, Jae Crowder scored 13 points, Avery Bradley notched a double-double (12 points, 10 rebounds) and Horford chipped in 11 points.
For a complete recap of Wednesday night's loss, click here.
The Bucks scored 54 points in the paint — where they made a living throughout the night despite giving up a big lead. On back-to-back plays, Marcus Smart split a pair of free-throws and drove to the hoop for a contested layup to tie the game at 93.
However, Brogdon made a layup of his own over Bradley and converted Horford's turnover into a breakaway layup — give Milwaukee a four-point lead with 1:47 left. From there, the only time the Celtics pulled to within a point was when Thomas went for a layup instead of a game-tying 3-pointer before Brogdon hit the biggest shot of the night.
Offensively, the only Celtics players with some sort of offensive rhythm late in the fourth quarter were Thomas and Smart. Crowder had a poor shooting night (4-of-12), Bradley's shot was flat (1-of-6 from 3) and Horford reverted to his old ways in not wanting to even attempt a shot in the final frame.
Although the Celtics made two big stops in the final minute, the four-point swing by Brogdon was enough to keep them ahead before his dagger with three seconds left solidified the win for Milwaukee.
The Celtics will close out their six-game home stand on Friday when they host the Magic.
The Celtics will undoubtedly have their hands full on Wednesday as they gear up to face one of the hottest teams in the league.
Fresh off their 118-108 win at Charlotte, the Bucks will look to make it two in a row against the Celtics on the second night of a back-to-back. Celtics coach Brad Stevens couldn't say enough about Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo — who is probably the biggest reason why Milwaukee has gone from a lottery team to the fifth best team in the Eastern Conference.
"He does some things," Stevens said. "That's the best way to say it. He keeps adding to it. Him in transition is like, I don't think I've ever seen anybody like him."
The Greek Freak enters Wednesday's game averaging 23.1 points, 8.5 rebounds and 5.3 assists. Russell Westbrook and James Harden and the only other players averaging 23-plus points, 8-plus rebounds and 5-plus assists.
"As he's become more skilled," Stevens said. "He continues to put you in a worst bind. He's tough; he's good."
Milwaukee's supporting cast has also been a key to their success. The return of Khris Middleton (left hamstring) has definitely helped throughout their recent stretch, rookie Malcom Brogdon (10.2 points) has emerged as a reliable outside threat and Greg Monroe is embracing his newfound 6th man role — averaging 12 points and 6.7 rebounds off the bench.
Middleton has been on fire this month, averaging 16.8 points and shooting 46.5 percent from the floor, including 40.9 percent from behind the arc.
"Middleton spaces the floor, he can run off screens and score," Stevens said. "He's a really good scorer cutting off the ball. He's gotten better, I think, as time's gone on in pick-and-roll and with the ball. And then he's a knockdown shooter."
The Bucks (38-36) have won 12 of their last 15 games. In what could be a possible first-round matchup for the Celtics, Boston will get another crack at beating Milwaukee in their final game of the regular season on April 12.
For Celtics fans, this feels good.
It's almost April, and their team own the top seed in the Eastern Conference, overtaking the Cavaliers thanks to Cleveland's blowout loss to San Antonio Monday night. It's only 1/2 game lead, but considering how long the Celts have been chasing LeBron James and Co., it seems like something.
It's almost April, and their team own the top seed in the Eastern Conference, overtaking the Cavaliers thanks to Cleveland's blowout loss to San Antonio Monday night. It's only 1/2 game lead, but considering how long the Celts have been chasing LeBron James and Co., it seems like something.
And if it makes you feel any better, the Web site fivethiryeight.com suggests the Celtics have a 67 percent chance at earning the conference's No. 1 seed, compared to Cleveland's 31 percent. It also puts the Celtics at seven percent to win the NBA title, only behind Golden State, San Antonio and Houston.
But other than staking claim to the top of the standings for the time being, should we really care about the standings flip-flop?
The Cavaliers are banged up, with James serving as their latest casualty thanks to an elbow in the neck. Iman Shumpert didn't play Monday, and Kyle Korver will miss two more games with a sore foot. With nine games to play, you might very well see Cavs coach Tyronn Lue scaling back minutes in his teams last nine games (one of which is against the Celtics, on April 5), prioritizing a semi-healthy playoff run.
After the Cavaliers' loss, James was quoted as saying, "It matters more that we're playing better basketball than where we're at. If that results in us having the No. 1 seed, the No. 2 seed, 3 or whatever the hell it is, we need to play better basketball. That's what it comes down to."
And, as painful as it is to admit, he's right.
The Celtics are the team playing well and feeling good about themselves. Not only have they taken the top seed, but Brad Stevens team has won four in a row and eight of its last 10. It's been a month where the C's only loss to an Eastern Conference team came in a slip-up against the lowly Sixers, with the other three defeats coming at the hands of Western Conference foes.
The next three games for the Celtics come against two teams with sub-.500 records (Orlando, New York), and one vs. a club (Milwaukee) just one game over .500. Those contests lead into the showdown with the Cavaliers at TD Garden.
After the Cleveland tilt, the Celtics play four more, traveling to Atlanta and Charlotte before closing out the regular season at home with games against Brooklyn and Milwaukee. (The Nets, by the way, are five games ahead in their race for worst record in the NBA, which is obviously good news for the owner of their first-round pick, the Celtics.)
Right now, if the Celtics were to claim the No. 1 seed their opponent would be Miami, who is just 1/2 game up on Chicago for the final playoff spot in the East. As for who the No. 2 seed might play, the group of Atlanta, Milwaukee and Indiana are all tied.Note: There is a poll embedded within this post, please visit the site to participate in this post's poll.
It's not something you see on a consistent level but when the Celtics front court put together the kind of production we saw against the Heat — on both ends of the floor — Boston is very difficult to beat.

1 Introduction
[2] Three recent papers suggest that the increase in the rate of sea level rise (i.e., the sea level acceleration) along the mid-Atlantic coast of the United States is greater than the global average [Sallenger et al., 2012; Boon, 2012; Ezer and Corlett, 2012]. A plausible physical mechanism for producing such an acceleration exists: a slowing Gulf Stream (GS), associated with a weakening Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), should reduce the dynamic sea level gradient across the North Atlantic, causing a sea level decline in the central North Atlantic and a corresponding sea level rise (SLR) in the northwestern North Atlantic. A secular SLR associated with this mechanism is one of the few points of agreement in global climate model projections of regional sea level change [Yin et al., 2009]. Ezer et al. [2013] suggested that changes in the GS, reflected in the altimetry-observed altitudinal gradient across the GS, are indeed correlated with a pronounced SLR in mid-Atlantic U.S. tide gauges since 2007 but did not examine the relationship between the GS gradient and tide gauges before the start of the altimetry record in 1993.
[3] Regional and local sea level differ from mean global sea level (GSL) due to several factors. Glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA), driven by the viscous response of the mantle to the changes in ice mass loads since the Last Glacial Maximum, is causing the collapse of peripheral bulge of the former Laurentide ice sheet and thus a mid-Atlantic regional SLR [Farrell and Clark, 1976]. East of the Fall Line, which passes close to New York City and Washington, bedrock is overlain by the Mesozoic and Cenozoic sediments of the Coastal Plain, which can subside due to natural compaction and therefore experience a faster long-term rate of SLR. In the southern region of the Chesapeake Bay, high rates of subsidence may also be attributable to differential compaction of the breccia lens of the upper Eocene Chesapeake Bay impact structure [Poag, 1997].
[4] On shorter timescales, regional sea level anomalies can arise from land ice melt and ocean dynamics [e.g., Kopp et al., 2010]. Melting land ice leads to a slower or negative SLR near the meltwater source and to an enhanced SLR far from the source [Farrell and Clark, 1976]. Greenland melt will thus produce less-than-global SLR on the eastern seaboard of the United States, while West Antarctic melt will produce greater-than-global SLR [Mitrovica et al., 2001, 2009]. Regional anomalies also arise from changes in ocean dynamic factors such as GS strength, as previously noted and changes in the distribution of heat within the ocean [Ishii et al., 2006]; these factors can undergo both strong interannual variability and longer-period variations. Local sea level anomalies can also arise from direct anthropogenic effects such as groundwater withdrawal and dredging.
[5] The three recent studies examining the possible sea level acceleration in the eastern U.S. tide gauge records [Sallenger et al., 2012; Boon, 2012; Ezer and Corlett, 2012] each have distinctive limitations, discussed in the supporting information, that restrict their ability to assess the statistical significance of the acceleration. They also share a common limitation when evaluating the regional coherence of sea level trends. Specifically, they all model each tide gauge record in isolation; they do not model the covariance between records. As a consequence, they cannot estimate the uncertainty in the difference in sea level between different sites in a way that accounts for correlation among different sites. For example, while they can all generate estimates of differences in SLR acceleration along the coast, they will overestimate the uncertainty in these differences.
[6] Here I develop a new spatio-temporal statistical method for analyzing tide gauge data, with the goal of partially disaggregating the sources of SLR and assessing the statistical significance of the sea level acceleration "hot spot" in the mid-Atlantic region. The method is based upon Gaussian process (GP) regression [Rasmussen and Williams, 2006] (in this context, also known as spatio-temporal kriging). Similar approaches have previously been used for investigating temperature records [e.g., Higdon, 1998]. The approach is well suited for investigating possible regional accelerations for several reasons. First, it is fully probabilistic, so measurement and inferential uncertainties are propagated through the entire analysis. Second, it models sea level as a spatio-temporal field, naturally identifying regions with coherent sea level signals, appropriately sharing information among neighboring sites in the calculation of posterior sea level estimates and allowing calculation of the uncertainty in differences between sites. Third, being Bayesian in derivation (though in this analysis empirical Bayesian, rather than fully Bayesian, in implementation), it copes naturally with the missing data that characterize tide gauge records. Fourth, like empirical mode decomposition (EMD) [Ezer and Corlett, 2012], it is nonparametric, and so does not force a functional form on the interpretation of the tide gauge records. Unlike EMD, however, it employs a parametric estimate of the prior covariance of sea level; this parameterized prior covariance allows easy separation of global, regional, and local signals, and of linear trends, smooth but nonlinear variability, and red noise-type variability in a fashion consistent with prior expectations about the behavior of sea level.
[7] Below, I demonstrate this method through application to tide gauge records from the eastern coast of North America and employ it to assess claims about a regional "hot spot" of sea level acceleration.

Use Throwable.initCause() to improve error reporting ---------------------------------------------------- Key: DERBY-2472 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-2472 Project: Derby Issue Type: Improvement Components: JDBC, Miscellaneous Affects Versions: 10.3.0.0 Reporter: Kristian Waagan Priority: Minor As Derby has moved to J2SE 1.4, Throwable.initCause() can now be used to improve error reporting. As stated in the initial commit (that was backed out, see below): 'Set Throwable.initCause() in a couple of locations at the JDBC level where we setup nested SQLExceptions. This means that automatically the stack trace for a database failed to start includes the reason for the failure, rather than just "see next exception". This is a great help when running JUnit tests and getting failures to start a database.' The initial commit was backed out because it broke numerous tests under JDK 1.6, and the author indicated he had no time to investigate. The patch caused no failures when running the tests with Java SE 5.0. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

I just got back from an amazing weekend at The Glenn Hotel downtown. A friend of mine had recommended it, and I am so happy that he did! It's literally the lap of luxury, and the staff is courteous, knowledgeable, and very friendly. The rooms were very elegantly decorated, and the beds quite comfortable. We were able to dine at Maxim Prime, which is Jeffrey Chodorow's new venture, and thoroughly enjoyed our experience. This luxurious hotel is also a great value! They had a wide variety of entertaining package deals, and it's location (right across from the CNN Center) puts it within walking distance of the Aquarium, the Dome, World of Coke, etc... They offer free parking which adds to the value. We had tickets at the Fox Theater, and the front desk arranged a private car for us - nice touch. We even received $10 off when we used the code: Alisa when we made our reservation. All in all, this is a great hidden gem in a sea of chain hotels in downtown Atlanta. I give The Glenn Hotel my highest recommendation!

Wonderful place to stay and we found an Angel on duty at this hotel... The rooms were fresh and spotless, as were all the facilities. This is a great airport hotel, with everything you'd look for in such a place. This was our second time to stay at this hotel and we found the same thing both times. The staff was super friendly and helpful (especially Velita), at the front desk. The breakfast is good, healthy and 'tasty' selection. The restaurant was also kept very clean. They have a great happy hour that was a nice welcome after traveling a bit. They offered a good selection of finger foods and up to three drinks for free during their happy hour. They offer a free shuttle service that's very friendly, fast and reliable, to take you to the airport, and we were able to leave our car there free for up to two weeks while we were away. Will definitely stat here again and again. Many thanks to the staff – and again (especially Velita), who took a lot of time to look after our needs.
I recently stayed at the Loews for a staycation in the city. I wanted to get away for a night and thought the hotel would be perfect for that. When I arrived at valet I was greeted by friendly employees who offered to grab my bags and opened the doors for me. Check in at the front desk was super easy and quick. I stayed in one of the VIP suites on the 25th floor which required room key access via the elevator to get on the floor. I really enjoyed that as it made me feel secure and safe. My suite was extremely large. I had a living area with a large sectional, dining area that seats 6, a kitchenette, king size bedroom, full bath with separate shower, tub and a television. There was also a half bath for guests which I thought was awesome. I received turn down service where when I arrived back to my room after dinner my bedding was pulled back and the curtains closed. I had an amazing view, beautiful room and the staff were great. I highly recommend staying here.
Congratulations to our daughter Bianca on her BA from GSU which is why we were in town to begin with. The Glenn Autograph hotel is within walking distance of the Georgia Dome as well as a variety of any cuisine of your choice. The staff and management at the Glenn hotel and Glen Kitchen restaurant were outstanding. The menu choices can accommodate any discerning palate. The rooftop bar was yet a completely different experience, including spectacular views of the downtown Atlanta area not to mention the amazing mixologist who made us feel like we were on a tropical island. We highly recommend the Glenn Autograph Marriott location in downtown Atlanta and look forward to returning soon. Special thanks to managers Cynthia and Todd as well as the staff.
Stayed here when i first moved to Atlanta in 2010. The rooms were huge and many included kitchens and full washer and dryers! Frankly, this hotel room was larger than my NY apartment. The staff was incredibly helpful. The pool and gym were spotless and beautful. The view from the rooftop pool is fantastic. I did not eat at Livingstons the in hotel restaurant as it is pricey for basics but it did seem like a great place to people watch. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Small coffee bar served coffee and pastries. Very good location and centrally located. It is directly across the street from the Fox theatre and several restaurants in the area.
Some of our best times have been spent taking downtown "staycations". It's a real treat to pack the bags for a weekend, drive an hour and be right in the middle of anything you ever wanted. Museums, history, fine dining, burger joints open at 2 am, I mean anything. My favorite part, is booking a room at our "home away from home", The Georgian Terrace Hotel. We love everything about the Georgian Terrace from the incredible amount of history, to the gorgeous rooms, to the knowledgeable and courteous service, to the extraordinary menu and talented chef at Livingston's, to the magical craft cocktails at Proof & Provision. It truly has felt like home.
We have stayed here twice. One time was on the Fourth of July. They were super accommodating and getting us a room that faced Centennial Park on a high-level. The room was clean. The pool and hot tub was up on a lower level roof, The condition of the pool in the hot tub was substandard at best. The pool is a glorified bathtub. If you have small children they will like it. The hot tub was half full. Not enjoyable at all. On the positive side we came back for my friends birthday. They were very accommodating to our party. We were even sent champagne. We will come back again.
I recently visited a friend and stayed at the Renaissance Hotel Midtown and was treated amazingly well during my stay. Medea, the Manager, was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and professional in helping us with several billing concerns. She went above and beyond to make sure our stay was First Class and memorable. The entire front desk staff, valets, and housekeeping were incredible! I would recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a wonderful experience in Midtown Atlanta. Keep it up Medea!!! You guys rock!!! Tim B.
My experience began when I was left homeless with a 2 yr.old because they double-booked, and i was "Early" getting there, but told my room was gone, and there were no more, so I had to go to another in town, which coated "Double", what I was quoted when I booked. Instead of making "Good" on a Reservation I made,...they left me high & Dry with a 2yr old, and we ended up having to go to a nasty shelter with addicts and prostitutes, I will never go to them again. They don't care. I know, because I spoke with them.
Very clean room...but when we wanted something to eat...well they said they were out of everything we asked for..and the pool was empty so the kids were very dispointed...not sure I'll pick this hotel again....for the price u pay how can they be out of all food..?? And to top it off they weren't that busy..pretty mad about it cuz my kids really wanted something to eat. So then I had to load them up at 9pm to find something around here ...I don't know this area .that's whyi picked this hotel. ..

I'm interested to know how to design/analyze steel elevated water tanks, particularly the body of the tank, the circumferential stiffener member at the spring line, the thickness and size of plate connecting the column support and bottom shell and the roof shell. What are the additional requirements if the tank is located in a Zone 4 region? Any help will be appreciated. Alex S G C.E.

The dramatic fall in house prices in the last five years coupled with cut-throat price competition in the DIY market has sent the industry into a decline.
Sainsbury's will close 50 stores costing up to £50m and will re-brand the Texas image to reflect its own Homebase chain. It also intends to close Texas' head office in Wellingborough, Northamptonshire. The functions will be moved to the Homebase headquarters in Wallington, Surrey. Texas has 11,600 staff and Homebase 4,500.
David Sainsbury, who chairs Britain's biggest grocery chain, said yesterday: "This is a unique opportunity and another step in our diversification programme."
Usdaw, the shopworkers union, said it would be seeking meetings with Sainsbury's today to talk about the company's redundancy plans. However a union spokesman said Texas' prospects were likely to be better under Sainsbury's than as part of the Ladbroke group. Ladbroke has moved out of retailing to concentrate on its betting and hotels businesses.
The acquisition moves Sainsbury's Homebase from fourth to second in the DIY market, behind B&Q. The deal also marks a new phase in the DIY market which boomed with house prices in the 1980s but has fallen on hard times during the housing slump.

The Last Station

More informationSOON TO BE A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE
A New York Times Notable Book
As Leo Tolstoy's life draws to a tumultuous close, his tempestuous wife and most cunning disciple are locked in a whirlwind battle for the great man's soul. Torn between his professed doctrine of poverty and chastity and the reality of his enormous wealth and thirteen children, Tolstoy dramatically flees his home, only to fall ill at a tiny nearby rail station. The famous (and famously troubled) writer believes he is dying alone, unaware that over a hundred newspapermen camp outside awaiting hourly reports on his condition.
Jay Parini moves deftly between a colorful cast of characters to create a stunning portrait of one of the world's most treasured authors. Dancing between fact and fiction, The Last Station is a brilliant and moving literary performance.
From the Trade Paperback edition.

Fiction was together from 1998 to 2003 with some line-up changes, though the core group of bassist, drummer and guitarist was consistent throughout that time. This is their only official CD. The drummer (me) has continued to make music in this vein with a band called Graxxus, though we have not yet released a CD with our present line-up, which is identical to the one below in terms of instrumentation. Check out our myspace page for full song samples, though. Listed here is the lineup that recorded Loose Translation and the compositional credits for each song.

Mark Thompson, the director general of the BBC, may have a stubbly beard but he didn't exactly qualify as Santa Claus yesterday as he doomed thousands of BBC employees to the prospect of redundancy in the new year.
Mark Thompson, the director general of the BBC, may have a stubbly beard but he didn't exactly qualify as Santa Claus yesterday as he doomed thousands of BBC employees to the prospect of redundancy in the new year.
But as the former chief executive of Channel 4 emphasised at a briefing soon after revealing the long-expected news to staff, anyone who didn't think that the BBC needs to change should just "have a look at Currys in the run up to Christmas" - a reference to the array of digital TV and radio equipment now on sale.
For good or ill the plans announced yesterday for big cuts in the BBC bureaucracy, a move towards higher spending on programme areas such as drama and comedy and a one-way ticket to Manchester for 1,700 staff - eventually - are the BBC's own blueprint for the digital age.
The dramatic changes, Mr Thompson insisted, were not the result of government pressure in the wake of the Hutton report but the corporation's own view "of the right path" which would protect the BBC's future into the next decade.
Great individual pain and many disrupted careers will result from yesterday's announcements but most of it is absolutely necessary and long overdue. Around 2,500 jobs are to go in the professional services that provide back-up to BBC programme-makers - everything from human resources and legal and financial through to strategy, policy and marketing.
No less than 47 per cent of posts in these areas will be eliminated and not one of them directly involved in making programmes of any kind. About half of the 2,500 posts will simply disappear while the other half will be outsourced with an overall savings of £68m.
Former director general Greg Dyke may have been an inspirational leader, but he didn't begin to get to grips with the BBC bureaucracy.
A 15 per cent cut in production budgets will also be tough but few outside observers believe the BBC is not capable of achieving greater efficiencies.
The decision to protect 50 per cent of the BBC's in-house production while putting up a 25 per cent slice to be fought over in a creative competition between independent and staff producers is an interesting compromise. The notion that the independents were only capable of coming up with exactly 25 per cent of the best ideas in broadcasting - the proportion imposed by broadcasting legislation - was more than a little far-fetched as anyone watching independent programmes such as Spooks would realise.
Thompson will certainly not be a ho-ho-ho figure in many BBC homes this Christmas. But as someone who has spent most of his working life in the BBC, he has probably taken the tough decisions to ensure that the corporation will get a new licence fee settlement and a new Royal Charter to run for 10 years from 1 January 2007.
