OVER the last decade or more, federal and state funds to restore beach sand have become increasingly scarce, as government officials, taxpayers and environmentalists have argued against spending hundreds of millions of public dollars for projects that often wash away after a few strong storms.
This has left Atlantic and Gulf Coast communities to develop their own solutions, often imposing what are referred to as sand taxes. But the potential for assessments of thousands of dollars — particularly in towns filled with vacation homes — has created a divisive issue that many homeowners, voters and elected officials have yet to solve.
Over the last several weeks, a series of potent gales has swept huge quantities of sand from Southeastern beaches, leaving a critical situation for some homeowners. A drive from the Outer Banks of North Carolina to Charleston, S.C., makes it evident that easy solutions have yet to emerge.
On North Topsail Beach, N.C., an 11-mile stretch of barrier island, condemned houses rise from the surf line at the island's north end. Standing on the deck of a modest home surrounded by dilapidated properties, Rebecca Hodges said that she voted for a $34 million referendum in November 2006, even though she was not sure if she and her husband, Robert, could afford an annual assessment in excess of $3,000.Continue reading the main story
"The price scares me," she said. "But losing the beach scares me even more."
Despite threatened homes, voters turned down the referendum, 74 to 26 percent. Later, some homeowners and town aldermen argued that the vote was not representative because of 723 registered voters, only 356 cast votes. This decided the fate of more than 2,000 property owners, many of whom live out of town.
The measure, and an effort by some aldermen to secure money for sand replacement through property tax funds, has split the town.
"It's pitted neighbor against neighbor," said Dick Macartney, a beachfront resident of 15 years, a member of the town's Beach Renourishment Committee and a candidate for mayor in a pending election on Nov. 6. "We don't need that when most of us are retired."
Mr. Macartney backed the initial referendum and said that now he would embrace nearly any plan, even one that levied an even higher fee on beachfront homeowners.
"All boats rise when property values go up," he said. "It's much better to have a stable front row on the beach."
The issue of who pays — people whose homes actually sit on the beachfront, as opposed to everyone who uses the beach — is a constant.
Richard Farley, an alderman in North Topsail, noted that the feeling among some along the beachfront was "whatever rate was put forth, it should be applied equally."
"The argument is that we all benefit the same from the beach," Mr. Farley said. "But I think it's a matter of risk. If someone opts to live a few blocks back, is it right to go to them and say, 'You have an erosion problem'?"
IN the past, money for sand came largely from federal and state funds, with local communities often asked to bear 5 to 10 percent. But according to Penny Schmitt, a spokeswoman for the Wilmington, N.C., office of the Army Corps of Engineers, the financing process is complicated and both the Clinton and Bush administrations have been reluctant to agree to new projects. They have even questioned paying for long-term maintenance projects in larger towns like Wrightsville Beach, N.C.
She said the corps might pay for the majority of a sand replenishment project if Congress and the president agreed that in the event of a catastrophic storm, the sand would provide substantial protection and savings to taxpayers. It might also pay if it were determined that a corps project — say, a jetty, a seawall or channel dredging — had robbed a beach of its sand.
"What's going on now," she said, "is kind of a subterranean debate: Do we want to build shoreline protection projects as a nation, or don't we? And if the nation doesn't want to pay for it, then who should?"
Because smaller communities often have higher flood risks, less political clout or private beaches, they are increasingly being forced to pay for new sand themselves.
In Emerald Isle, N.C., about 40 miles up the coast from North Topsail, Charles Vincent long reveled in the wide beach that protected the vacation home he built in 1977. But by the late 1990s, that shoreline was scoured.
"We had five hurricanes in four years, and they tore at the beach pretty badly," said Mr. Vincent, a retired American Airlines pilot.
By 1999, Mr. Vincent was left with a narrow beach in front of his home, while many Emerald Isle beach houses had been demolished or stood in the surf. "I said to myself that I'd better get involved now, because I'm also going to need help sooner or later," he said.
Mr. Vincent and his neighbors quickly realized that help might not come from government, so they joined a homeowners group, later named the Bogue Banks Beach Preservation Association. In 2001, this group convinced voters in three towns along Bogue Banks, a fragile 30-mile-long sandbar, to spend nearly $30 million to pump dredged sand onto area beaches.
The association cobbled together a plan that for eight years would levy an annual "beach renourishment" tax of 48 cents for $100 of value on Emerald Isle's beachfront homes, and 3 cents on those from the second row back. This translated to roughly $4,800 a year on a million-dollar beachfront house, and $150 for a $500,000 inland property. Two other towns, Pine Knoll Shores and Indian Beach, passed similar measures.
Since 2001, around 8.5 million cubic yards — enough to bury a 150-mile-long two-lane highway under 11 feet of sand — have been pumped onto the beaches. "It made sense economically to nourish the beach and keep it in good, healthy condition," Mr. Vincent said.
William Fugate, another Emerald Isle homeowner, said: "Emerald Isle's property alone was recently evaluated to be worth $8 billion. When you consider that, a $30 million investment is a bargain."
Mr. Fugate said homeowners must do a better job convincing local, state and federal officials that wide beaches attract business, and the beach properties generate substantial tax revenue. But barring outside help, he said, the reality is that sand replacement will increasingly be financed locally. "If you want to hold on," he said, "it's getting to where you have to pay, or watch it fall in."
BUT not everyone is willing to pay. In 2001, the Army Corps of Engineers approved a 14-mile-long, $94 million sand replacement project in badly eroded Nags Head, N.C. But the sand has yet to flow because federal money never materialized.
In response, Dare County commissioners passed a countywide 1 percent sales tax to rebuild the beach. County voters threw it out. Then last April, Nags Head voters rejected a plan to levy 39 cents per $100 in value on beachfront homes and 5 cents on homes not on the beach.
Debbie Hill, a social worker from Hillsborough, N.C., near Raleigh, is an owner of a beachfront Nags Head cottage that has been moved back from the advancing Atlantic three times. But she opposed the Nags Head referendum because, she said, beach replacement damages the environment and has shown no lasting benefit.
"Beach renourishment is just throwing money into the sea," she said. "The sand doesn't stay."
Down the coast in South Carolina, a pair of vacation communities have grappled with erosion with different results. Just south of Pawleys Island, 1,223 property owners in Debordieu, a private development, took matters into their own hands in 2005. Faced with an ocean surging into the yards of multimillion-dollar homes, a beachfront resident, Ray Chandler, helped organize a tiered $6.2 million, 600,000-cubic-yard plan that charged owners of the most-threatened homes a one-time fee as high as $40,000, while those well inland paid roughly $2,300.
Fifty miles south of Debordieu, the private Wild Dunes resort sprawls across the northern end of Charleston County's Isle of Palms. Over the last year, beaches have disappeared in front of the golf course and several condominiums. At the oceanfront Seascape complex there, the pool has been breached by ocean waters.
When erosion first threatened Seascape, state regulators allowed frantic homeowners to place thousands of small sandbags to hold back the ocean and hold in what sand remained. These promptly washed southward; 1,700 larger sandbags that replaced them provide a temporary solution.
John O'Hare, president of the Seascape homeowner association, said that owners of his and other threatened condos at Wild Dunes would happily pay the estimated $6 million for dredging but that hurdles remain. Over five years ago, a permit was requested to move sand from a dune to replenish the beach. Environmentalists threatened to sue.
More recently, the condo owners' association was given preliminary state approval to truck sand to the beach. But homeowners fear this smaller fix — far costlier per cubic yard than dredging — may not be adequate, particularly since the sandbags must be removed first.
When Mr. O'Hare bought at Wild Dunes 22 years ago, he said that no one informed him of such an erosion threat.
"I had no idea," he said by phone from his main home in Guilford, Conn. "I was 45 years old, and I worked hard to scrape a few bucks to pay for this place. People say, 'Oh, they're all rich; let it fall into the ocean'. But I'm not rich, and to let this place fall into the ocean would be an ecological disaster."Continue reading the main story

"Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life, and you will call it fate." ~ Carl Jung
True spirituality is the subtlest expression of non-violence.
It is learning to love, which is difficult. We must be willing to move into the darkest areas of our life and love ourselves out of the darkness through mindfulness and patience. We have to see our naked body, with all of its perfections and imperfections, and patiently resist the violent urge to reject it. This takes an immense amount of courage. We are terrified of seeing ourselves without any clothes on. We insist upon avoiding ourselves by thinking about ourselves, rather than being our self. True spirituality is about rediscovering the indestructible dignity of being through the practice of love.
Rather than waging yet another war on our self, in order to whip ourselves into shape, the practice of meditation represents the possibility of moving beyond the struggle against our self. The following talk explores this one possibility.

SHANGHAI, June 24, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- UnionPay International issued the Report of 2015 Outbound Tourism Tendency of Summer Vacation on June 24, which indicates that the outbound Chinese tourists is characterized with larger gross scale, higher transaction frequency, more scattered destinations and more rational purchase.
Regards to the latest tendency of outbound tourism, UnionPay International launched the preferential program, Travelling the World in Summer Vacation, on the same day, which offers the exclusive privilege up to 50% of UnionPay cards by over 100 merchants in 8 tourist destinations from now until July 31, namely Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea, Japan, Singapore, America, Italy and Australia.
The Report declared that China has become the second largest tourist export country in the world. The outbound tourism favored by the Chinese visitors is short-range destinations, among which Hong Kong and Macao are the top two respectively. Asia ranks to be the first one among all continental markets, while Europe ranks second to Asia. In the meantime, the outbound tourism favored by the Chinese visitors has witnessed such shifting as from group travel to independent travel, from offline stores to the online reservation, from chain hotels to customized and service apartment as well as such changes of tending to selecting international airline companies. In addition, the Chinese tourists increasingly like the experience the local history, culture and art.
Based on the data issued by the China National Tourism Administration, the purchase of outbound tourism in 2014 reached 115 billion USD (about 724.5 billion RMB), with year-on-year growth of over 20%. At present, UnionPay cards have become the preferred payment brand of outbound Chinese tourists. Besides, the growth of total transactions via UnionPay cards overseas far surpasses that of transaction amount, which indicates the cardholders use UnionPay cards more frequently. Simultaneously, the purchase of outbound tourism is changing from the traditional shopping-orientation to the combination of shopping and leisure. More and more visitors prefer to purchase in daily bazaars, supermarkets and local flavor snack shops, etc.
Now UnionPay cards are accepted in over 150 countries and regions, covering almost all places frequently visited by the Chinese tourists. It is available for cardholders to use UnionPay cards in shopping centers, brand stores and hotels, and apply UnionPay cards for such daily purchase as shopping in supermarkets, catering, cultural leisure and taxis. Correspondingly, those merchants provide a lot of exclusive privileges for UnionPay cardholders.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from How to make a mass market board game The quality of Hasbro's games has been really poor for several years now. With this edition of Risk, Hasbro have really upped their game, and produced a quality product. This is Risk how it should be, the mission cards have been reinstated, and each player has a little storage box for their pieces. Nice presentation, great game, the best edition of Risk to come out for years.

It was one of the easiest shopping I had ever. And because of password system it was quite secure. Lastly it was so fast that even I took my product after 2 or 3 days later from the nearest Tesco direct.

ST. PETERSBURG, July 27. /TASS/. International terrorism has become a global threat and challenge for the whole civilization, and joint efforts of the international community are needed to fight against it, Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Wednesday.
In the address to participants in the 15th session of heads of special services, security agencies and law enforcement agencies in St. Petersburg, Putin said: "The session will focus on the fight against international terrorism that has become unprecedented in scale and in fact challenged the whole civilization. I will stress that decisive and coordinated actions of the whole international community are needed to effectively fight against this threat, and the main role will be played by special services and law enforcement agencies."
The president noted that in such conditions, special services should boost cooperation, exchange experience, use the most advanced methods of preventing and countering terrorist attacks, as well as distributing and propagating extremism, ideas of national, religious and social intolerance.
"I am confident that the session will focus on a broad range of issues and problems that require joint approaches with reliance on international law, while any proposals will contribute to strengthening security of our countries and international stability in general," he added.

Havas Worldwide wins Craftsman and DieHard accounts
The Chicago office of Young & Rubicam's loss is Havas Worldwide Chicago's gain. Hoffman Estates, IL.-based Sears and its parent Sears Holdings are moving the advertising accounts for the familiar DieHard battery and Craftsman tool brands from the Y&R office to Havas Worldwide Chicago.
If you believe in revenge, Havas' win of the Sears (Nasdaq: SHLD) business could be viewed as payback for Y&R grabbing the Bel Brands ad business away from Havas late last year.
An Havas spokeswoman said the Chicago agency could not comment about the account moves.
Recently, Sears has not done significant amounts of consumer advertising for either DieHard or Craftsman, though TV home makeover personality Ty Pennington did participate in a Craftsman promotion last year.
But the financially-challenged department store chain has been more focused in recent times on selling Kenmore appliances via wacky ads that spoof movie styles and show unsuspecting people crashing into refrigerators in unexpected places, like a beach.
With the move of the DieHard and Craftsman accounts to a new agency, however, Sears could be planning to boost advertising for both brands.
Havas Chief Creative Officer Jason Peterson, at his best, has proven able to create ad campaigns that are pleasingly unpredictable, yet not so bizarro that consumers can't relate to them.

This advance provides a better picture of how polymer molecules respond under fast-flow, high-stress processing conditions for plastics and other polymeric materials.
Kenneth S. Schweizer, the G. Ronald and Margaret H. Professor of materials science and engineering at the University of Illinois, and graduate student Daniel Sussman published their findings in the journal Physical Review Letters.
"This is the first microscopic theory of entangled polymer liquids at a fundamental force level which constructs the dynamic confinement potential that controls slow macromolecular motion," said Schweizer, who also is a professor of chemistry and of chemical and biomolecular engineering and is affiliated with the Frederick Seitz Materials Research Laboratory at the U. of I. "Our breakthrough lays the foundation for an enormous amount of future work relevant to both the synthetic polymers of plastics engineering and the biopolymers relevant to cell biology and mechanics."
Polymers are long, large molecules that are ubiquitous in biology, chemistry and materials, from the stiff filaments that give cells their structure to plastics. Linear polymers fall into two classes: rigid rods like uncooked spaghetti or flexible strands like al dente noodles.
When in a dense solution, linear polymers become entangled like spaghetti in a pot, intertwining and crowding each other. Each polymer is hemmed in by its neighbors, so that the liquid behaves like an elastic, viscous rubber. Given enough time, the liquid will eventually flow slowly as polymers crawl along like snakes, a movement called reptation. Researchers have long assumed that each polymer's reptation is confined to a tube-shaped region of space, like a snake slithering through a pipe, but have had difficulty understanding how and why the polymers behave that way.
Schweizer and Sussman's new theory, based on microscopic physics, explains the slow dynamics of rigid entangled polymers and quantitatively constructs the confining dynamic tube from the forces between molecules. The tube concept emerges as a consequence of the strong interactions of a polymer with its myriad of intertwining neighbors. The theory's mathematical approach sheds greater light on entanglement and better explains experimental data.
"Our ability to take into account these crucial physical effects allows us to predict, not assume, the confining tube concept, identify its limitations, and predict how applied forces modify motion and elasticity," Schweizer said.Not only does the new theory predict tube confinement and reptative motion, it reveals important limitations. The researchers found that the "tubes" weaken as applied forces increase, to the point where the tube concept fails completely and the liquid loses its rubbery nature. This is particularly important in plastics processing, which exposes polymer liquids to high stress conditions.
Next, the researchers plan to continue to study how external stress or strain quantitatively determine the driven mechanical flow behavior of entangled polymer liquids. They also hope to develop a theory for how attractive forces can compete with entanglement forces to result in soft polymer gels.

Media Magnate Lebedev Likely to Stay Out of Jail
The trial between two eccentric Russian entrepreneurs over a televised punch-up that almost sent one to prison may end more peacefully than expected, with plaintiff Sergei Polonsky sending a letter to the court asking the judge not to put his opponent, Alexander Lebedev, behind bars.
"In this crazy world, 35 percent of people, according to official data, are mentally disturbed. We see that Alexander Lebedev behaves well during court hearings and does not throw his fists at anybody," said Polonsky, an outlandish businessman, known for his unrealized ambition to build the tallest building in Europe.
Polonsky is currently awaiting trial in Cambodia for allegedly assaulting local sailors. But even if he was cleared of that charge, he would have to face justice at home, where he is wanted in connection with the embezzlement of $200 million.
The brawl between Polonsky and Lebedev occurred during the recording of a television show about the financial crisis in September 2011. Lebedev jumped out of his chair and attempted to punch Polonsky, only to knock him off the studio podium after the latter said he would like to hit other discussion participants in the face.
Lebedev was consequentially accused of "hooliganism motivated by political hatred" and could face up to five years in prison.
But the prosecution later dropped the hooliganism charge and left it at battery, which can lead to up to 22 months of restricted movement. In that case, Lebedev would be unable to leave the region he is registered in.
Lebedev, who along with former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev owns Russia's main liberal opposition newspaper, Novaya Gazeta, attributed the charges against him to President Vladimir Putin's revenge for his criticism of the government.
"It is the government that's against me," he told reporters at one of the court hearings.
Putin called the incident's participants "hooligans," slamming their inability to solve issues peacefully.
Despite Lebedev's claims of a politically motivated prosecution, analysts have suggested that the incident was actually a business conflict.
"Lebedev is not a political figure, and therefore this case is not politically driven," said Stanislav Belkovsky, a former Kremlin insider and now a prominent political observer.
"The situation does not deserve political analysis; these are just a bunch of clowns. Whoever pays more money to the court will win, and we should pay less attention to the situation," he said.
Lebedev, who is also the owner of the British newspapers London Evening Standard and The Independent, enjoys wide appeal among famous actors and singers in Russia and the West.
Such notable figures as Keira Knightley, Elton John, Bono and Hugh Grant wrote letters in his support.
"I formed a very favorable impression of [Mr. Lebedev] as a man of great decency, integrity and generosity," wrote British playwright and screenwriter Tom Stoppard.
The court is expected to declare its verdict on July 2. Lebedev denied the charges against him and said they were fabricated.

Ryan Harrow is back with the Wildcats.
The sophomore point guard returned to Kentucky's practice session on Sunday after going home to North Carolina over the holiday. He has missed the last four games dealing with an illness and what was described as a "family issue."
"I would like to thank my teammates, the UK coaching staff and administration along with the Big Blue Nation for their support over the last couple of weeks while I was out," Harrow said via a statement released by UK media relations. "I'm feeling much better, and it felt really good to get back on the practice court with the guys today.
"Unfortunately, when I started feeling better, I had an issue to tend to with my family over the holiday break. Everything is good with that now and I'm excited about playing with my brothers again."
Harrow played in The Opening game of the season against Maryland, but only lasted only 10 minutes due to an ailment that had left him fatigued.
After Friday's game against LIU-Brooklyn, UK coach John Calipari said he was eager to get Harrow back in action, buy noted the player would have to compete to get his spot back in the rotation.
"He starts down the totem pole and he has to work his way back," Calipari said. "... If someone is better, he's not playing. If he's better, he'll play in time. We need him back, need another guy, no question. Like everything else, you have injuries, things that go on as a coach."

New health law offers opportunities for investors
Three years after the passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, and less than a year before some of ObamaCare's key measures take effect, there are still many unanswered questions about its impact.
Obamacare has raised concerns about increases in health insurance premiums, doctor shortages and any number of issues.
It has also created debate among investors about which stocks will benefit and which will suffer.
Jonathan Smucker says be believes investors will do best in this changing landscape by looking at the specific dynamics affecting each stock.
"The U.S. health care landscape is changing rapidly, so you want leading companies with good track records that are helping to push the industry forward," said Smucker, a research analyst at Marietta Investment Partners LLC in Milwaukee.
Cerner Corp. (CERN), North Kansas City, Mo., provides electronic medical records systems to hospitals and other health care providers.
Despite the fact that the U.S. population spends about 18% of gross domestic product on health care, the White House estimates that $700 billion of health care spending does nothing to improve patient outcomes.
Obamacare is aiming to cut more than $700 million of spending to hospitals and other providers over the next decade, mostly through shrinking reimbursements.
Cerner is among the companies that create efficiencies by giving hospitals and doctors better access to data, Smucker said.
"They help providers improve outcomes, and control costs and the quality of care," he said.
The 2009 Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act offers financial incentives that give providers even more reason to adopt systems like Cerner's.
Cerner has grown its client rolls at an average annual rate of 20% over the last three years, Smucker said. Revenue grew 21% and earnings increased 28% in 2012.
Domestic growth should continue and the company has potential to grow internationally, he said.
The biggest risks here are that federal regulators might change incentives or other programs, or that stronger new competitors might emerge, Smucker said.
These shares have traded in a 52-week range of $67.64 to $98.88.
Biogen Idec Inc. (BIIB), Weston, Mass., makes drugs for treating neurodegenerative diseases, hemophilia and autoimmune disorders.
Biogen last month released Tecfidera, the first oral drug for relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis. Since its launch on April 19, the drug has gained 8% of the market and is "on track to be a game-changer in the industry," Smucker said.
Tecfidera is expected to grow at an accelerating pace, and is a good example of how Biogen takes advantage of its expertise in certain niche diseases, he said.
The company has a number of drugs in its pipeline for treating Alzheimer's disease, neuropathic pain and other autoimmune disorders, he added.
The biggest risks here are those always associated with bringing new drugs to market, such as whether they will work well and whether there are potential side effects.
There is also the specter of expiring patents, but many of Biogen's most important patents are in effect until 2019 and beyond, Smucker said.
These shares have traded in a 52-week range of $126.39 to $231.99.
Both companies have the potential to outpace the S&P 500 index over the next few years, he said.
