Frequently Asked Questions
About the Wetlands Data
The Get Data button on the Wetlands Mapper will open a new dialog box with options for downloading seamless wetlands data as viewed on the Wetlands Mapper. The Wetlands Mapper provides users enhanced access to the wetlands data with the capability to download geospatial wetland map data by state and watershed (HUC8) in shapefile and file geodatabase format; and to connect to the wetlands dataset via web services (WMS, KMZ and REST). Connecting to Web services allows users to dynamically interact with the data on their desktop and web-based applications. You can view the Shapefiles by using ESRI's ArcGIS Explorer free software among others. Geodatabases require a full ESRI ArcDesktop license.
By Watershed - The Download by Watershed option allows users to select individual watersheds in the mapper for data download. This tool gives you the option of downloading a Shapefile or File Geodatabase.
By State - You can also download data by State. Each State data download is available as either a compressed File Geodatabase or a Shapefile.
Web Services – Web Services option allows direct connection to the NWI web map service, for either wetlands data, wetlands status, or riparian data. For detailed information on how to connect to these services please visit our website at: https://www.fws.gov/wetlands/Data/Web-Map-Services.
The wetland classification codes are a series of letter and number codes that have been developed to adapt the national wetland classification system to map form. These alpha-numeric codes correspond to the classification nomenclature that best describes the habitat. (for example, PFO1A).
The Service provides extensive documentation of this Cowardin Classification System.
- The Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats Classification Hierarchy is a map code legend that shows the relationship of wetland systems (ex: estuarine), subsystems (ex: intertidal), and classes (ex: emergent wetland).
- Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats (2.1MB PDF) - outlines minimum requirements and guidelines for classifying wetlands and deepwater habitats consistent with the FGDC Wetlands Mapping Standard.
- NWI Map Code Diagram (1MB PDF) - wetlands and deepwater classification hierarchy table.
- Wetland Code Interpreter - provides detailed habitat descriptions as described by Cowardin et al (2013).
There are several download manager programs available, including some that are free. We use Xtreme Download Manager (Open Source software); it works really well.
Note: Due to their size, State files can not be sent by email.
About the Wetlands Mapper
The wetlands displayed on the Wetlands Mapper show wetland type and extent using a biological definition of wetlands. There is no attempt to define the limits of proprietary jurisdiction of any Federal, State, or local government, or to establish the geographical scope of the regulatory programs of government agencies.
Persons intending to engage in activities involving modifications within or adjacent to wetland areas should seek the advice of appropriate federal, state, or local agencies concerning specified agency regulatory programs and proprietary jurisdictions that may affect such activities.
For information about regulations that may affect wetlands or development on your property, contact the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers office nearest you: http://www.usace.army.mil/Locations.aspx.

5. Open the mapper from here: http://www.fws.gov/wetlands/data/Mapper.html
The Areas of Interest layer was designed to highlight wetlands that exhibit unique or important ecological characteristics. It currently includes sites located throughout the United States. It includes Wetlands of International Importance (Ramsar sites) as well as state natural areas, National Parks and National Wildlife Refuges. Each site is marked with a geographic location and includes a link to additional information about that particular wetland. Additional site and information may be added in the future.
For wetland digital data downloaded from our website:
U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Publication date (found in metadata). National Wetlands Inventory website. U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service, Washington, D.C. http://www.fws.gov/wetlands/
The Service's topical wetland and riparian maps are graphic representations of the type, size and location of the wetlands, deepwater or riparian habitats in the United States. These maps have been prepared from the analysis of high altitude imagery in conjunction with collateral data sources and field work.
The date a given wetland polygon is valid is based on the imagery that was used for the interpretation. This imagery information is visible when you click on a wetland polygon in the Wetlands Mapper. A display box containing information about the selected polygon will appear including 'Image Date(s)' which identifies the year(s) of imagery used. For a more general view of when the wetlands in a larger area were mapped display the' Data Source - Image Year' layer on the Wetlands Mapper.
The Print button allows users to print the current map view. Use the Panning and Zoom controls to center map to desired extent. After entering a title, selecting the print button will add the map to the print jobs queue.
Selecting an individual print job will open an Adobe PDF document with a rendition of the previously displayed map. The generated map will be approximately .5MB. The generated PDF document can be saved and/or printed.
There are several options for base maps including aerial and satellite imagery, street maps that show transportation routes, topographic maps provided by ESRI, and U.S. Geological Survey digital raster graphics of topographic mapping. Click on the desired base map type button to switch views. Please allow a few seconds for the view to refresh.
A list of Basemap contributors can be found at:
Metadata for this imagery service can be found at:
Historic wetlands data is available in IA, IN, WI, and portions of MN and SD, and more information about how this layer was developed and its suitability is available at https://www.fws.gov/wetlands/Data/Historic-Wetlands- Product-Summary.html.
The wetlands mapper also shows areas with available historic wetlands data, which will be included when downloading data by either state or watershed.
It is likely the base imagery date is different than the date of the imagery used for photointerpretation, and interim changes in the landscape since the wetland was mapped may result in mismatch when comparing newer imagery with ground conditions.
The wetlands mapper defaults to ESRI base imagery. More information can be found at:
Imagery can also be viewed in theESRI map viewer to determine image dates for specific areas of interest.
In addition, not all wetlands are wet throughout the year. Some wetlands may appear dry during certain times of the year while still supporting hydric soils and wetland plants characteristic of wetland areas.
Wetlands data is typically updated twice a year; in the spring and fall. The best way to check for updates is by using the projects mapper viewer link on the right of the main mapper page (http://www.fws.gov/wetlands/Data/Mapper.html), which shows recent data updates as well as active mapping projects.

In the Halliburton case, the United States Supreme Court reconsidered the ruling in the decision of Basic Inc. v. Levinson that, twenty-five years ago, adopted the fraud-on-the-market theory, which has since facilitated securities class action litigation. The authors sought to contribute to this reconsideration by providing a conceptual and economic framework for a reexamination of the Basic rule, taking into account and relating their analysis to the Justices' questions at the Halliburton oral argument.

Federal equity receivers are creations of equity. The in pari delicto doctrine is similarly a defense based in equity. When equity receivers are called upon to administer the assets of a receivership entity for the benefit of defrauded victims, courts sitting in equity must balance the needs of the victims with the rights of the defendants to assert the in pari delicto defense to litigation claims brought by the receiver against them. The competing equities reveal the great discretion that courts can exercise in permitting litigation claims to proceed in the face of the assertion of the in pari delicto defense. Courts, however, must also be mindful of a variety of issues and obstacles in deciding whether to allow the in pari delicto defense.

As noted in the Introduction, during 2013, the U.S. SEC continued to devote its resources to rulemaking required by the Dodd-Frank Act. The SEC focused on undertaking the rulemaking required in order to implement the mandate of Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Act, which relates to the regulation of the markets for derivatives. However, despite progress in this area, the SEC did not promulgate final rules related to security-based swaps in 2013. As a result, the discussion below focuses on the Commission's rulemaking required by the JOBS Act, which was enacted in April 2012.

The compiled Fuld@40 papers. This collection of papers reflects the individual thoughts of the authors and provides a diversity of views on opinion practice, how that practice has developed, what progress has been made since the Fuld article and, in some cases, how opinion practice might or should develop in the future.
69(3): 903-904 (May 2014)
This article is the Editor's Note to the collection of Fuld@40 Papers in this issue of The Business Lawyer.
69(3): 905-908 (May 2014)
This article provides an introduction to the collection of Fuld@40 Papers and calls for advancing James Fuld's plea that the organized bar establish general principles of legal opinion practice.
69(3): 909-916 (May 2014)
This article compares the need for a clearer articulation of a national opinion practice based on customary practice with the increased use of express opinion limitations. It examines the different types of limitations being used, their need and the consequences to opinion practice of the proliferation of these limitations. The article concludes with a call to reaffirm, with the involvement of opinion recipients, customary practice as the basis for opinion practice but one that is less complex and more effective.
69(3): 917-922 (May 2014)
This article identifies a crisis in confidence among opinion practitioners in relying on customary practice, motivated largely by risk management concerns, and seeks to make the case that reliance on customary practice is the soundest basis for sensible and professional opinion practice.
69(3): 923-932 (May 2014)
The article examines the history and development of legal opinion practice from the time of the Fuld Article, when there was little guidance, to the present, where there is more attention to opinion practice management and the advancement of customary practice as a basis for opinion practice it recognizes that there is more work to be done to achieve James Fuld's goal of establishing general principles of legal opinion practice.
69(3): 933-940 (May 2014)
This article examines the desirability of normative or contract-based opinion standards as a basis of opinion practice to achieve greater certainty and efficiency, and suggests the reconsideration of this approach. It references the ABA Legal Opinion Accord as an example of normative or contractual standards that can be incorporated by reference into an opinion letter to govern the interpretations of that opinion letter.
69(3): 941-944 (May 2014)
This article examines the reasons for the "kitchen sink approach" to legal opinion practice that uses expansive lists of assumptions, qualifications and exclusions in opinion letters. These reasons include defining more precisely the coverage of the opinion, making it easier to prepare opinion letters, recognizing the realities of the unimportance of certain opinion issues and assisting law firm opinion risk management. The article acknowledges contrary points of view and the appropriateness of reevaluating the role of the kitchen sink approach as customary practice becomes more developed and accepted, although it concludes that now is not the time to abandon the kitchen sink alternative
69(3): 945-948 (May 2014)
This article examines the respective roles of opinion givers and counsel for opinion recipients, comparing the U.S. and U.K. approaches. It concludes that, in the case of a remedies opinion on the enforceability of a local law document such as a mortgage, it is generally more appropriate for a lender recipient to obtain the advice of its own counsel, or request a legal opinion from its own local counsel, rather than looking to borrower's counsel for the opinion.
69(3): 949-952 (May 2014)
This article explores approaches to risk management in opinion practice. It recognizes that improvements have occurred in the opinion giving process and that the wording of opinions has changed to become more precise and to add limitations. It then asks whether, in addition to improving the quality of their opinions, law firms might add protective procedural provisions. These provisions could include choice of forum (which might be arbitration), specification of governing law, waiver of jury trial, prescribing standards of care, and establishing limitations on liability.
69(3): 953-956 (May 2014)
This article observes that customary practice works only if both opinion givers and opinion recipients and their counsel understand what it is. When the recipient is represented by counsel, the giver ordinarily can assume the recipient is being properly advised about the opinion letter. Even in the absence of counsel, certain recipients can reasonably be expected to understand the opinion letter. When that is not the case, the article recommends that the opinion letter state expressly, in order to put the opinion recipient on notice, the application of customary practice and the need to consult counsel.
69(3): 957-960 (May 2014)
This article examines the issues involved in determining who may rely on opinions. It identifies circumstances, with a focus on syndicated loans, in which parties that are not addressees, such as additional lenders, should be entitled to rely and then discusses approaches to address issues of concern to opinion givers in order to enable such reliance.
69(3): 961-968 (May 2014)
This article describes a paper that discusses qualifications to the remedies opinion that commonly are found in opinion letters in commercial loan transactions and accepted lenders. It notes that in some cases the qualification is required but in other cases it is taken because the cost and effort in determining its need is not justified by the issue's importance. Moreover, in many cases the legal issues underlying the qualifications are well enough understood by the lender and its counsel.
69(3): 969-972 (May 2014)
The recent Fortress decision is an important reminder inherent in rendering third-party opinions. Counsel brining suit alleging liability in the opinion context may have little familiarity with customary opinion practice. A trial judge may have a different understanding of the meaning and purpose of any opinion and the scope of an opinion giver's obligation to conduct a factual investigation of the transaction addressed by the opinion than do sophisticated opinion givers and recipients (and their counsel). In short, even as we who regularly give and receive opinions gather with greater frequency and form a more consistent and coherent statement of customary opinion practice, we would do well to remember that others, not in the room, may have very different understandings than we do.
69(3): 973-978 (May 2014)
This article examines the relationships of disclosure to the giving of legal opinions, both in connection with what is said in opinion letters and what is not said. It explores the responsibility of lawyers for such disclosure and potential sources of liability.
69(3): 971-990 (May 2014)
This article discusses the issues that arise when a lawyer must declare to complete an engagement to deliver an opinion, or must withdraw from representation of the client that has requested the opinion, or must withdraw and/or disaffirm a previously issued opinion.
69(3): 991-996 (May 2014)
This article explores the particular ethical issue of dealing with conflicts of interest, especially those that arise late in a transaction. It uses as an example a loan syndication or private equity fund formation when there are late entrants as lenders or investors who will recipients of the opinions and therefore can create conflict issues for the opinion giver or local counsel engaged by the opinion recipients. It also raises the questions of whether just providing an opinion creates conflict issues at all because the ability of an opinion recipient to rely on a closing opinion should not be viewed as a making that recipient adverse to the opinion giver.
69(3): 997-1006 (May 2014)
This article discusses several recent developments that can have an effect on opinion practice in the future. These recent developments include the results of the ABA Legal Opinions Practice Committee survey of law firm opinion practices, a report of that committee on cross-border closing opinions of U.S. counsel discussing ground rules for these opinions, an update of the ABA Securities Law Opinions Subcommittee report on opinions in SEC filings, a new California sample venture capital financing opinion, and changes to securities opinions arising from the JOBS Act and implementing SEC rules.
69(3): 1007-1013 (May 2014)
This article discusses the specific opinion issues that arise from contractual provisions that purport to extend applicable statutes of limitation, as reflected in the 2011 Delaware decision in GRT, Inc. v. Marathon GTF Tech., Ltd.

Rotor Resurfacing and Pads Question
When braking I am experiencing a "fast/slow fast/slow" type of deceleration when applying the brakes. The best way I can describe it is that during braking there is lots of friction then less friction then lots of friction then less friction, over and over with an al together jerky feeling stopping.
I just put on new drilled rotors in April 2012 along with some EBC Yellow Stuff 4000 high friction pads.
I have put 20K on them since April.
I am well aware of what ABS feels like and this is totally different.
The pedal does not "pump" as it has on other warped rotors like it has in the past on other cars so I am hesitant to think the rotors are warped. There are no large visible grooves or a lip on the rotor. The pads are at 80-90%.
The calipers were rebuilt at the time and new SS lines were added.
The parts store said that a new rotor thickness should read .806 on a micrometer and anything less than .803 they would not touch as far as resurfacing. I was getting a solid .807 reading all over on various pars of the rotor which measures thicker than "spec". ??
The parts store kid also said that I would need to replace the pads IF I resurfaced the rotors. I have never heard this before but I am aware that the rotors and pad make a bond together and match each others micro grooves which helps braking.
Question: Do you think what I am feeling is just buildup? These are the most dusty pads I have ever had even more so that OE semi metallics. I have used wax on my rims, tire shine and go to spray down style washes at least twice a month.
Question: If I resurfaced the rotors would I ruin my old pads or newly resurfaced rotors by not changing my pads?
Question: I realize that bad bushings and ball joints effect braking performance but would that cause what I am experiencing?
Question: what do you recommend?
Thanks in advance!

To become a university of international repute
To make meaningful contributions towards wealth creation, nation building and universal human advancement through the exploration and dissemination of knowledge
Goal 1 : To attract outstanding students and to produce knowledgeable and competitive graduates
Goal 2 : To elevate achievements in research and innovation to international levels
Goal 3 : To intensify community involvement for the generation and sharing of knowledge
Goal 4 : To strengthen UPM as a centre of excellence in education, research and services in agriculture and tropical
Goal 5 : To improve the governance and management of resources based on best practice
Goal 6 : To reinforce the Graduate School of Management's position as the Top Business School (TBS)
The origins of Universiti Putra Malaysia can be traced to the School of Agriculture, which was officially established on 21 May 1931 by John Scott, an administrative officer of the Straits Settlements. The school was located on a 22-acre land in Serdang. The School offered two programmes then, namely a three-year diploma programme and a one-year certificate course. By 1941, the School succeeded in training 321 officers - 155 obtained the diploma and 166 the certificate. On 23 June 1947, the school was declared the College of Agriculture Malaya by Sir Edward Gent, the Governor of the Malayan Union. In 1948, it was proposed that this college be upgraded to a university. The proposal, however, was shelved with the declaration of the Emergency in the middle of the same year. In 1960, the Faculty of Agriculture at the University of Malaya was established, and on 1 January 1962 a statute was approved to appoint the Council of the College of Agriculture Malaya as an authoritative body of the University of Malaya. In conjunction with the growing importance of the agricultural sector in the country's economy, the role of the college became prominent. Hence, the government allocated RM7.9 million to carry out development under the First Malaysian Plan (1966-1970). The allocation received was spent on increasing students' intake, building lecture halls, extending areas for college development, adding more science laboratories and recruiting more staff. Tun Abdul Razak Hussein, the Prime Minister then, when officiating extended buildings in the college on 31 March 1969, envisioned an agricultural university which would offer degree courses. This vision was finally realized with the founding of University Pertanian Malaysia.
The establishment of this university was the result of the merge between the College of Agriculture Malaya with the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Malaya. Dr. Mohd. Rashdan bin Haji Baba, the principal of the college of Agriculture Malaya, was appointed as the first Vice-Chancellor by virtue of the provisions of section 18 of the Universities and University Colleges Act, 1971.
Universiti Pertanian Malaysia started its first academic session in July 1973 with three central faculties: the Faculty of Agriculture, Faculty of Forestry, and Faculty of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science. Besides the three faculties there was a Basic Sciences Division. The student enrolment at that time was 1,559. In the early eighties, however, UPM has expanded its area of studies to the field of Science and Technology (S&T). In 1994, UPM embarked on its ambitious plan to develop as a futuristic university, which would provide better and up-to-date skills and systems for science and technology education by taking full advantage of the rapid development in information technology (IT). Thereafter, UPM has transformed into a borderless campus, its name and reputation stretching far beyond the national boundaries. The climax of the transformation came with the changing of the name of the university from Universiti Pertanian Malaysia to Universiti Putra Malaysia; as officially announced on 3 April 1997 by Dato' Seri Dr. Mahathir bin Mohamad, the prime minister then. This was a strategic way of portraying the status of UPM as a centre of higher education capable of providing various fields of studies, especially in information technology, which facilitates national developments in the new millennium.

And, the focus of this LOTD is my pimp-ed lashes of coz (as shown in the super close-up photo).
Notice the red bits? Well, the red was not super obvious kind coz I layered red mascara over Dolly Wink Volume Mascara.
I'm pretty sure that the red will be super obvious over Majolica Majorca Lash Bone White Fiber.
You must be wondering what red mascara I'm talking about, yes? I didn't get it when it was launched last year. I only got it this year and I just knew I had to get my hands on it. Btw it's limited edition, maybe that explains why?
Ta Dah!~ Majolica Majorca Lash Gorgeous Wing Neo Red Mascara RD600 (Limited Edition).
A lil' review for now:
Red is definitely a unique color and not as widely-used as black or brown of coz. It is not easy to find a red mascara IMO. Correct me if I'm wrong. I was bent on getting this MJ mascara and the only place which still had stock was NAC Watsons. I bought it at full price, no discount whatsoever coz it's limited edition. There was about 2 or 3 left (can't remember) after I got mine. I love how the red makes my eyes 'POP'; more 'awake' somehow. My lashes do look kinda spidery due to the mascara fibers. BUT that doesn't really bother me much, since no one will stand THAT close enough to see that. The mascara fibers did add some length to my lashes and I ain't complaining :p Easy to remove as well, with cleansing oil of coz! I'll layer this on top of MJ Lash Bone White Fiber next time to see the RED effect. ♥x♥
Ignore my oily face; no thanks to the time-of-the-month.
Photos speak a thousand words. Pretty self-explanatory? Till then.

Date of Stay: August, 2010
Our second trip this month to this campground. The prices are very reasonable and everything you want is very close. The activities, pool, waterslide, mini golf all very affordable. This is the best secure facility I have ever been to. Gates close: just get a gate card to re-enter. A great place!
Date of Stay: July, 2010
Very disappointed, kids all over the place not being supervised by anyone. Bikes, dogs, all over. Again no one supervising and inappropriate language. Try to find a staff member to help you. Signs marking the campground are non existing, make sure you bring a map.

Post-match Published at
Now Monaco...
Laurent Blanc's men made a successful start to the 2013-14 Champions League, racing away with a 4-1 victory over Olympiacos. It bodes well for Sunday's top of the table Ligue 1 clash with Monaco at the Parc des Princes.
It's a new European campaign, but it's another stunning start for the side from the French capital. Like last year when the Parisians demolished Dynamo Kiev 4-1 on 18 September, Paris ran out comfortable victors, but the win over Olympiacos was a lot longer in coming.
While it was Edinson Cavani that opened the scoring (19'), Olympiacos were quickly back on level terms in the Georgios Karaiskakis Stadium, thanks to Vladimir Weiss (24').
But after the half-time break, the Parisians returned with renewed determination. Thiago Motta (68', 73'), twice, and Marquinhos (86') ensured the Paris Saint-Germain win. Obviously, it was a special moment for the young Brazilian:
"I am very happy, it's a very emotional night for me. It's a fantastic night. This is my first match for Paris, in the Champions League and to cap it all off, I score the first ever goal of my professional career."
But there was hardly the time to celebrate the win before Les Rouge et Bleu were back at the Ooredoo Training Centre. Having returned from Greece overnight and returned home on Wednesday morning, Laurent Blanc's side were back in training that same afternoon with the aim of preparing for the Week 6 Ligue 1 clash against leaders Monaco.
Edinson Cavani can't wait: "The match against Monaco is going to be a huge match! It will be a very tough game against potential title rival. Obviously we are going to give it absolutely everything."

Hello all! I have finally got to complete my dream of owning a E46 coupe! Its a 2000 328. Any suggustions or tips would be greatly appreciated! Right now the only issue with my bimmer is that the odometer has the lights burned out in some sections is there a inexpensive fix for this or do i need a entire new cluster??
Also I need to locate a the trim that covers the mirror bolts on the drivers door.
I believe you should be able to change the lights in the cluster.
Welcome :hi:
Odometer lights is a fairly easy fix if you can use a soldering iron. They are plcc-2 LED bulbs. You can search this forum in the DIY section. I changed all of my lighting to blue

Eliot Spitzer's rival in the Democratic race for New York City comptroller repeatedly raised the prostitution scandal that forced Spitzer to resign as New York's governor during Friday's televised debate, despite having vowed to avoid it.
"There's two tiers of justice in this city," said Scott Stringer, the Manhattan Borough president who is running against Spitzer in the Democratic primary on September 10.
"There's one for the rich and powerful, and there's one for the rest of us. The truth of the matter is Eliot Spitzer represents the tier where he can escape prostitution and prosecution," Stringer said, referencing the 2008 scandal that earned Spitzer the tabloid moniker "Love Guv."
Stringer, who had been widely viewed as the likely victor until Spitzer announced his 11th hour bid in July, also attacked Spitzer as a divisive loner unable to forge the kind of alliances needed to work with the mayor and seal financial deals to benefit New Yorkers.
"The comptroller has to be a steward, not a sheriff," Stringer said. "You can't always be alone because you start to become an outlier."
Spitzer was elected governor of New York after his years as attorney general earned him the nickname "Sheriff of Wall Street."
"There are times to work with people and times to work alone," Spitzer said. "I was alone when everybody else was running for the hills."
"Look at the totality of my record, who I am, what I've done," Spitzer said. "I made mistakes, but I made a difference."
Spitzer attacked Stringer as an establishment candidate who does not stand up for his constituents.
"What indelible mark have you left?" Spitzer asked.
Stringer cited his 20-year record in city politics, a "steady-hand" and "integrity."
With about a month before the primary, the debate took a surprisingly negative turn, with "harsh" attacks against Spitzer's character, said Doug Muzzio, a professor at Baruch College.
"Spitzer often had to counter-punch, but he was also able to throw some punches here and there." Muzzio said. "The question is: was Stringer too negative? Did he turn off voters?"
A New York Times/Siena College poll released on Thursday showed Spitzer leading Stringer 44 percent to 35 percent, with 19 percent of Democratic voters said they were undecided.

|Sr. Prejean, Paris, 2007
Prejean sees the problem is a US "culture of violence" that needs to change. There is a "seesaw" view of the world, "justice means, he's dead- he dies." Prejean has seen the pressure this puts on the families of victims to ask for the death penalty. Society says, "you have to be for the death penalty or it looks like you didn't love your boy"she explains.
Prejean's formidable drive is rooted in her religious principles. "The heart of a vocation to follow Jesus is clearly to see the transcendence of goodness and dignity of a person - a person is more than one act," she says. It is this loss of dignity on death row that Prejean describes more than once, as "unspeakable." "The demeaning way you live... strip searched every time you leave your cell...denied your medication." You get "1,000 signals a day that you are disposable human waste."
In a country where religion is so influential in politics, Prejean has come up against many of her peers, who denounce her teachings. "When a nation believes it is blessed in the eyes of god, there is an arrogance that we are special people and are doing right" Prejean says. There is a right-wing Christian view that "the more Christian you are the more you believe in the death penalty, because you know you should be punished for your sins..that God wants pain for pain."
The answer to this is "relentless dialogue." Educating people, working through their "biblical illiteracy."

Queer is the Word/World: An Evening with Bebe Zahara Benet and Rakesh Satyal
Words Without Borders
Wednesday, June 16, 2010 from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM (EDT)
Event Details
June is LGBT Pride History month and Words without Borders, the magazine for international literature in translation, is celebrating with its first annual Queer Issue. We will be celebrating this special occasion with special guests, and WWB fans, Bebe Zahara Benet, winner of season one of RuPaul's Drag Race, and Rakesh Satyal, acclaimed author of Blue Boy, the winner of the Lambda Literary Award for best debut fiction and a talented jazz singer. Both will read selections from the issue. This will be an intimate performance hosted by Therapy Lounge. Your gift of $20 gets you delicious food and an evening of fun. Your gift is tax deductible and will help us ensure that readers in the English-speaking world can experience the best international LGBT voices.
Join us on Wednesday, June 16th, from 6pm-8pm at Therapy on 52nd Street between 8th and 9th Avenues.
This event is brought to you by Words without Borders and the host committee: Brandon Lacy Campos, Rohan Kamicheril, Brayden McCarthy, Heather Guthrie, Natasha Johnson, and Natalie Edwards.
Rakesh Satyal is the author of the novel Blue Boy, a gender-bending comedy about an Indian American boy's fascination with the Hindu god Krishna. He is an editor at HarperCollins, where he works with such authors as Armistead Maupin, Paul Rudnick, and Paulo Coelho. A member of the planning committee for the annual PEN World Voices Festival, he sings a popular cabaret show that has been featured in The New York Observer, Page Six, and DailyCandy, among other places. He is an adjunct professor in the publishing program at New York University and lives in Brooklyn.
Nea Marshall Kudi is Bebe Zahara Benet. Born in Cameroon and raised in Cameroon and France, Nea started his career in fashion as a male model in Paris. It was there that he first tried his hand at female illusion and Bebe Zahara Benet was born. As Bebe, Nea was the winner of the first season of RuPaul's Drag Race and has become a beloved and elegant figure in the world of drag artistry. In addition to Nea's work as a drag artist, he is also a recording artist, and his first single, "I'm the Shit," has been met with acclaim. Nea's most recent project, "Queendom," a one-woman show, launched in New York City in May 2010 to a sold out, standing room only crowd. Nea is hard at work on a full debut album due out in the coming months.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel has said she will lobby on behalf of Israeli-Palestinian peace efforts led by U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry when she visits Israel on Monday.
Kerry, who held talks with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in Paris on Thursday, is trying to nudge both sides at least to agree on a framework deal by the end of April although months of negotiations have made little visible progress.
Kerry says he is still seeking an overall accord to end the decades-old conflict, whose main issues include borders, security, the fate of Palestinian refugees and the status of Jerusalem.
"We need a stable two-state solution as soon as possible, with a Jewish state of Israel as well as a state for the Palestinians," Merkel said in her weekly video podcast on Saturday.
Without such an agreement, neither Israel nor the Palestinians would have a prosperous future, she said.
"We should provide as much help as we possibly can to support Secretary of State Kerry's efforts with his Middle East negotiating partners," she said, adding she would discuss what hurdles remain with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Merkel will take her cabinet with her to Israel for the two-day visit.
Palestinians want a state in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, with East Jerusalem as its capital. Israel captured those areas in the 1967 war, and in 2005 pulled its troops and settlers out of the Gaza Strip - land now hedged in by an Israeli blockade and run by Hamas Islamists opposed to Abbas's peace efforts.

Farmers in Santa Maria Valley Wary of Salty Water
SANTA MARIA, Calif. - The 2013 Santa Barbara County Crop Report is in. Overall, the production value of local crops went up 10% from the year before. But now in 2014, growers are experiencing the hardship of the statewide drought.
Strawberries are the county's top cash crop at almost $500-million. The drought is affecting just about every facet of the agriculture industry, but strawberry growers in the Santa Maria Valley have their own concerns.
David Peck runs Manzanita Berry Farms in Santa Maria, where 1.5 to 2-million crates of strawberries are grown per year. Like many strawberry farms in the valley, Manzanita pumps their irrigation water from the ground. Up to now the Santa Maria Valley hasn't experienced the same severity of water shortages as other Central Coast regions.
"Here in Santa Maria, we're really blessed with an ample supply of groundwater so far," said Peck. "There hasn't been a lot of wells that I've heard of actually running out of water."
But that doesn't mean the statewide drought hasn't touched local strawberry farmers. Even without a water supply shortage, Peck says the lack of rain is increasing the concentration of salt in local groundwater sources.
"Salt can be detrimental especially to the establishment of really new, small plants, seedlings, transplants like we have with strawberries," said Peck. "It slows them down and makes it harder for them to drink water out of the soil."
That can set plants back and cut production. So far Peck hasn't seen his fields slow down. But he's preparing for tough times ahead.
"If the drought continues, everybody is going to have to make a cut somewhere," said Peck. "Right now I don't see anybody leaving fields fallow because of lack of water. But to say that can't happen, no I'm afraid that is a possibility."

The following accounts were taken from Columbia County Sheriff's Office incident reports:
Woman asks teller to cash fake check
A woman fled a Martinez bank Tuesday after trying to cash a forged check.
Sharon Durham's kindergarten class at South Columbia Elementary School started Wednesday with first-day excitement and fanfare.
John "J.J." Parada, 5, was excited about school and especially about riding the school bus for the first time.
"We got to see our Mom and Dad," J.J. said of waving to his parents as the bus drove away.
Aidon Kallas, 5, wasn't as excited. He sat in the lap of his mother, Melissa, with his teary eyes buried in her shoulder.
"It's Mommy's last of four," she said. "He said, 'I just want to stay home.'"
Former Army medic Benjamin Nay spends his days preserving, repacking and tagging, photographing and cataloging historical artifacts at the Veterans Curation Program lab in Martinez.
Lately, he's been unwrapping pottery shards and projectile points wrapped in paper bags and rotting rubber bands collected and archived in the late 1970s.
Retired & Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP), 4210 Columbia Road Suite 13A, Martinez, is available for ages 55 and older to apply their skills and experience to meet community needs; to make an appointment, call (706) 868-0120 from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday
Columbia County commissioners approved a final project list for the 2017-2022 Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax at their regular meeting Tuesday. The vote places the list on the Nov. 4 General Election ballot.
Should voters approve it, the five-year SPLOST is expected to raise as much as $144 million for infrastructure and building projects throughout the county and in the cities of Harlem and Grovetown.
A Harlem teen was arrested Saturday after authorities say he impersonated a firefighter as he pulled over a 16-year-old girl.
Christian Jerome Lavarias, 19, of Harlem, was charged with impersonating firefighter and false imprisonment.
A Martinez man remained hospitalized Monday after being shot by his nephew Saturday.
Kenneth Wayne Newman Jr., 38, was in the Georgia Regents medical Center with injuries that did not appear life-threatening, according to Columbia County sheriff's Capt. Steve Morris.
Deputies were called at about 2:30 a.m. to a Louisville Road home, where they found Newman face-down on the kitchen floor, according to a sheriff's office incident report. Newman has a gunshot wound in the middle of his back about six inches below his neck.
Former Grovetown officer denies charges
A former Grovetown Department of Public Safety officer recently indicted for sexual misconduct with a female inmate denied the charges at a Friday arraignment hearing.
Jon Eric Austin Stripling, 38, of Railroad Avenue in Grovetown, pled not guilty to three counts of sexual assault by a person with supervisory authorities and violation of oath by a public officer at the hearing in Evans.
About 400 people braved the rain on Saturday to get a sneak peek at Marshall Square, a retirement resort being constructed in the heart of Evans.
Although most of the building's interior is still unfinished – all bare drywall and concrete floors – Resort Lifestyle Communities had several finished apartments for the public to see, and a host of personnel from its other properties on hand to provide tours and answer questions.
That team included Chris and Suzanne Bryde, Marshall Square's new resident managers, who are transferring to Evans from Wichita, Kan.

With over 3.5 billion internet users and U.S. adults spending more than 10 hours consuming media every day, what consumers read about you online has a huge impact on your brand perception and, ultimately, revenue. The star ratings and online reviews your business receives affect everything — from where you show up on search results pages to the size of your red dot on Google maps.
And there is ample opportunity for consumers to rate you. With connected devices multiplying at a staggering rate, the option to click on a star rating is always at consumers' fingertips. Seven of 10 Americans seek out opinions before making purchases, according to Mintel.
To ensure your online reputation accurately reflects the quality of service you provide, you have to get a handle on what people are saying about you across multiple channels and websites. It's a huge task — one that requires proven strategies.
These six pillars of effective Online Reputation Management will get you on the right path to managing — and improving — your online reputation.
1) Request and Respond to Reviews
It's important to monitor and respond to all online reviews — positive or negative — in a timely manner. Instead of waiting passively for reviews to come in, have a kiosk in your store or office where people can easily fill out a quick review before leaving. Or your teams can send simple rating requests directly to customers via email or SMS. The easier you make it for people to review you, the more likely they will. Implement a tool that curates reviews from various sources — Google, Facebook, Foursquare, TripAdvisor, Yahoo, HealthGrades, and others — so you can take action.
Make sure your teams respond promptly. If it's positive, thank them. If it's negative, do something to alleviate the issue. This demonstrates your commitment to customer service and may prevent dissatisfied customers from complaining on other sites.
2) Use Surveys to Identify and Address Issues
Surveys help you collect information about how customers experience your products or services, identify what you're doing right and uncover problem areas so you can fix them. Surveys should be brief, readily accessible and easy to complete via tablets, mobile apps or online forms. Some tools help you analyze and report on the data, as well as share insights and statistics online to support key marketing messages and boost ratings.
3) Help People Find You with Accurate Business Listings
With four out of five consumers using search engines such as Google to find businesses, accurate business listings are essential. Erroneous listings lose consumers and affect search results and ratings. If a potential customer gets the wrong address from a business listing, they'll waste time driving around trying to find you. Such negative experiences lead to negative reviews and damage customer sentiment about your brand.
Google is a good place to start, but your business may be listed on many other sites, as well. Implementing a process for auditing and correcting your listings helps ensure consistency and accuracy.
4) Engage Customers and Prospects with Social Media
No business can evade the influence of social media; it's critical to monitor social channels and actively engage. Some tools help you track social activity about your business in dashboard format, so you can see the location and content of posts and establish trends.
It's important to engage via social with the community and influencers to create advocates, drive site traffic and get the word out about positive reviews and feedback. Strategic, targeted social advertisements can help raise brand awareness, as well. Also, make sure you share your reviews to raise awareness of your brand and add credibility to your marketing message.
5) Leverage ORM for Operational Insights
Armed with information about your online reputation, you can make operational improvements across the organization. You may identify a recurring issue — for example, long wait times or multiple complaints about customer service at a specific location. You can use this information to make decisions about needed changes and prevent similar issues from happening in the future. Such operational insights can help you hone employee training, as well.
6) Spread the Word with Flexible Reporting
Finally, reporting is key. Your C-suite needs to see and understand important metrics about how the business is perceived online. The ability to create custom reports will be essential for demonstrating outcomes of your reputation management efforts.
The Right Platform Makes All the Difference
Not all Online Reputation Management platforms are alike. Find one that's structured around the six pillars, and you're off to a great start. Learn more by reading our success kit.

Gold and Brass were in full force at the recent High Point Spring Market! See this trend through the eyes of Designer Mentors Beth and Carolina from Pulp Design Studios—–>
A handful of the Decor Mentors, us included, attended High Point Market this year as Market Ambassadors. It proved to be an incredibly rewarding experience on a professional and design level. As we shopped for the latest and greatest for our clients we kept seeing the same trend throughout almost every showroom: Gold & Brass! It was a prevalent theme from accessories, to art, to furniture, to lighting.

photo by Pulp Design Studios at Bungalow 5 Showroom
In every form, from retro throwbacks to new innovative shapes, the gold and brass was in abundance. Gold and brass adds a unique quality to a space making it instantly seem more glamourous and collected, so it's no wonder why it's making a comeback. Somehow anything plated in gold or shinning in brass is elevated into an object of desire.
photo by Pulp Design Studios at Noir Showroom
We spotted tons of organic forms translated into sculpture and furniture. Gold skulls, brass peacocks, animal shaped tables, and more were all gilded, dipped, plated, and hammered in gold and brass.
photo by Pulp Design Studios at Natural Curiosities Showroom
Even the art was fabulously translated to gold or brass in one way or another.
Shopping through market we found ourselves spotting a shape that we loved and saying "Wouldn't that be fabulous in brass?" or "That would be perfect in gold!" Yet, we also remembered a time when we would say "I love that, but I wish it was in silver".
So, how do you keep up with the trends without needing an update each season? The answer is simple. Just collect what you love & artfully tie it together in your space. A great designer can make sense of all the things you love and create a plan for your space that's filled with your personality, yet is aesthetically pleasing and functional. We are firm believers that it's ok to mix metals, mix woods, and mix colors for that matter.
So, here's the golden rule: Just stick with what you love and you'll be… golden!

Cadillac Man - Survival On The Streets
Forest Hills / 2009. I attended a fascinating talk on Saturday afternoon given by a man who had lived for thirteen years on the streets of New York City. He goes by the name of Cadillac Man and he is the author of the newly released book entitled 'Land Of The Lost Souls' which is available in Barnes & Noble and Borders books. It was released on March 17th of this year.
Cadillac Man told us how he survived living on the streets of Manhattan, Queens & Brooklyn where the average life expectancy of a homeless person is about two years. A former GI from the Vietnam War, Cadillac Man vacated his home following the loss of his job, a spate of alcohol abuse and regular arguments with his wife. During one of those arguments she asked him to leave and he did. Once on the street, he had to learn how to survive, finding a place to sleep, food to eat and earning a enough to keep himself a bit clean and clothed. We'll post more on a fascinating tale of one man's journey into and out of the abyss later in the week.
Green Possibilities Dances Into Forest Hills
Forest Hills / 2009. This was an unexpected treat. Who would have expected to encounter Flamenco dancing on a Sunday afternoon at Tierra Sana restaurant? Out of curiosity I decided to cover an event which a new member, Maria Tabone, posted in our members calendar just a week or so ago. The event, Green Possibilities, was sponsored by a group formed under the leadership of Stephanie Fiallo, co-owner of the Tierra Sana restaurant. The environment was the theme and the program included entertainment, food, educational seminars [held in a comfortable back room], as well as booths where ten vendors sold environmentally friendly products and services. We'll report more on this group event sometime later this month including photos of many of the group members and the event.

Queens Buzz employs two site search engines. One is focused entirely in the Business Directory and is best used when trying to look up a certain type of business listing / items.
The second search engine scans the entire site and returns its findings by site section. This is the most comprehensive search tool on the site, but doesn't always give you the best match.
To get the best results try both plural vs singular words like 'gym' and 'gyms'. And when doing multiple word searches use quotation marks [eg. "Astoria Park"] for best results.

Busy Bee Returns After Decade-Plus Hiatus
Legendary Bronx rapper Busy Bee is set to drop his first album in over a decade, entitled 'Now & Then: Last Man Standing.'
The old school rapper, who also went by Busy Bee Starski, is best known for his classic 1982 battle with Kool Moe Dee at Harlem World — one of the first organized and documented battles. Bee also appeared in the early rap film 'Wild Style.'
Though one of the most most respected freestyle MC's and a member of Afrika Bambaattaa's Zulu Nation, Busy Bee didn't release a full-length album until his 1988 LP 'Running Thangs,' followed by his other full length, 'Thank God for Busy Bee,' in 1992. The last record he released was his 1998 EP, 'Look in Da Sky, Who Do Ya See?'
Though he took a break from releasing records for over a decade, Busy Bee did make some film appearances in that time, playing himself in Damon Dash's 'Paid in Full' film and QD3's 'Beef' DVD.
'Now & Then' is a collection of new, unreleased songs as well as remixes of some of Busy Bee's older tracks, featuring fellow rap legends Kid Capri and Jazzy Jay, alongside production by Diamond D, Easy Mo Bee & Joc Max. The album will be released later this year, by Vtech and Wilshire District Music. Check out the single 'Busy's Revenge' featuring Kid Capri, here.

Denver Broncos vs. Kansas City Chiefs Preview
Peyton Manning has had a great comeback this season, but the Broncos suffered a big blow in their last game losing lead RB Willis McGahee for the remainder of the season with a knee injury. NFL lines have the Broncos as big 10.5-point favorites with a total of 44.
In their last games the Broncos beat the San Diego Chargers 30-23 and the Chiefs lost to the Cincinnati Bengals 28-6.
CLICK GRAB OUR BEST Expert NFL Picks for 2012 FOOTBALL GAMBLING season!
This season the Chiefs are 6-4 ATS and they have an Over/Under record of 7-3 and the Chiefs are 3-7 ATS and they have and Over/Under record of 5-5.
In their 7-game losing streak the Chiefs' offense has averaged a paltry 12 ppg. Brady Quinn will get the start in this game and he has been less than stellar this season and it does not help that Kansas City has one of the worst WR corps in the league. The Denver pass defense ranks 10th in the league and their pass rush, led by Von Miller with 13 sacks, has the most sacks in the league.
For the Chiefs to have any chance to win this game they will need a good game from RB Jamaal Charles, who has 821 rushing yards on the season. However, he will be facing a Denver run defense that ranks 6th in the league.[soliloquy id="82219″]
Manning has been playing well for the last few weeks and has a couple of solid young WR's in Demaryius Thomas and Eric Decker. Kansas City does have a good pass defense ranked 6th in the league, but their pass rush is one of the weakest on the NFL so Manning will have time to find his targets. The last time he played the Chiefs in KC was back in 2004 when he passed for 5 TD.
With McGahee out rookie Ronnie Hillman, Lance Ball, and Knowshon Moreno will man the rushing offense and for the season these 3 have combined for less than 300 yards. However, the Broncos will be facing a Chiefs' run defense that only ranks 25th in the league.
In some betting trends for this AFC West match up the Broncos are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games, 4-1 ATS in their last 5 road games vs. a team with a losing home record, and they have an Over record of 4-0 in their last 4 road games.
The Chiefs are 4-1 ATS vs. a team with a winning record, 1-5 ATS in their last 6 home games, and they have an Under record of 10-2 in their last 12 home games.
Jason's Pick: Even giving 10.5 points on the road I have to go with the Broncos since they are playing great while the Chiefs are reeling and the worst team in the NFL.

Emily A. Bernard Jackson asks this question concerning Byron in a TLS review of Roderick Beaton's Byron's War: Romantic Rebellion, Greek Revolution . It's a "troublesome" question for Byron scholars:
"Byron was certainly political: he maintained a lively interest in politics, and his poems were often partisan; he frequently evinced a belief that poetry was a piddling profession and action was the thing. On the other hand, for the most part his involvement in politics was at best tangential. The Italian revolution that never came off 'the very Poetry of politics!' was as close as he got before 1823, and even then (as the quotation suggests) he was too sensible to invest in it fully. Even Byron's involvement with the Greek Revolution is difficult to parse. Do three helmets made specially for him according to descriptions of Hector's armour indicate determination or fantasy? Does the fact that Byron put aside Don Juan for Greece mean that he was done with poetry now that he had a real chance at politics, or was he simply taking a break and planning to resume once Greece was free? In all ways, the problem of whether Byron was a poet with political interests or a frustrated politician who poeticized in compensation remains unresolved."
Beaton's book helps, Jackson thinks.
First, he uncovers early contacts with Greek revolutionaries: "At the beginning of his first stay in Greece in 1809, for example, Byron spent time with a group of klefts, Greek hired bandits, and Beaton suggests that their code of 'anti-social freedom' may have had a significant influence on the personality of the Byronic hero."
He also links Byron's interest in Greek independence to his relationship with Shelley: "Beaton's careful research makes it unarguable that it was Shelley who first committed himself to the Greek revolution, and who interested Byron in it. Shelley befriended Alexandros Mavrokordatos long before Byron encountered him, and he and Mary Shelley sent translations of the Greek declaration of independence to English newspapers." Yet, Jackson thinks that Beaton overstates his case when he attributes Byron's engagement in Greece to Byron's guilt over an unresolved breach with Shelley.
For a poet and a romantic one at that, Byron took a sensible view of Greece's future: " he was not interested in the usual British approach of imposing Anglo-Saxon norms on the native government; rather, he told his friend Charles Parry that a 'system of government must and will arise suitable to the knowledge and the wants of the people.' He advocated a strong Greek national government and clear economic and foreign policies. Beaton calls him a realist and a relativist." And maybe a politician after all.
