Health Care Information on the Go
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee just launched its first member mobile application designed to meet the growing need for convenient mobile access to health care information. With the myBlue TNSM app, members can easily and quickly reach their health care information on the go.
Our members told us they need an app that makes it easier for them to make health care decisions while on the go at the pharmacy, doctors office or whenever they need it, said Carla Raynor, vice president of strategic marketing. So we created a tool that specifically addresses the needs for convenient access to health care details as well as the ability to quickly find doctors or other important services.
BlueCross members can simply sign in to access in-network physicians, urgent care facilities and pharmacies based on location. They also can see how much they still owe on a deductible plus check a claim or access their mobile ID card. Members can also register for BlueAccessSM, the online member portal, from within the application to gain access to its full feature set including:
Access a digital version of the member ID card
Find an in-network doctor or facility, then easily call or map to their location
Search by location to find the closest in-network urgent care center
Look up and save doctor and pharmacy contact information for easy access
Check balances, claims and benefit information including deductibles and copays
The myBlue TN app is available for download in the Apple App Store and Google Play.
You can view a video demonstration of the new app at www.youtube.com/watch?v=cUNWJM99Ac0.

Finding of remains brings hope for Blaylock's friends
Mix of emotions about possible closure of murder case
BEND, Ore. - The investigation into whose remains were found west of Detroit Lake continues. Tuesday, Marion County Sheriffs deputies said hunters found the skeletal remains near Niagara Falls Park along Highway 22.
Deputies say the remains were discovered in a forested area, away from the North Santiam River.
Deputies were called to a remote area of the canyon Saturday morning on a report that skeletal remains had been discovered. The call was received shortly before 9 a.m.
"At this time, we believe they are human remains but no positive identification has been made," the agency said in a Tuesday morning update. The bones will be sent to the state Medical Examiner's Office for examination.
When the news broke over the weekend, thoughts from many immediately turned to the Lori Blaylock case. She was killed by her husband Stephen in October 2010. He admitted during trial to dumping her body in the North Santiam River.
That river flows into Detroit Lake, near where the remains where found, sparking speculation that this case could finally be closed.
Richelle Hartman, a long-time friend of Lori's spoke to NewsChannel 21 Tuesday, she said she has been on Cloud 9 and filled with mixed emotions since the discovery.
"We are coming up on the two-year mark of her being missing," said Hartman. "I was just very optimistic that I hope that they are (her) remains."
Friends of Blaylock say she loved Central Oregon, in particular the snow, and she always had a way of making them smile.
In November of 2010 more than 100 people showed up at Drake Park to pray for the missing woman. In May of this year, Blaylock's friends came together again, to raise more than $1,000 for a memorial plaque.
Since the fund-raiser, a bench and plague has been placed at Riverbend Park in honor of the Bend woman.
"It's a nice place to go and reflect and share memories of Lori," said Hartman.
The money left over from the fund-raiser went to Saving Grace, a non-profit that helps those affected by domestic abuse.
Marion County deputies on Tuesday could no provide any further details on the identity of the remains. They added that investigators were still at the scene, looking for more remains. What was found has been sent to the state Medical Examiners Office.
Officials say it could take weeks before the positively identify the remains.
Aanyone with information about the case was encouraged to contact Detective Mike Myers at email@example.com. You may anonymously leave information on the Marion County Sheriff's Office Tip Line: 503.540.8079.

It's far too often that quantity is indirectly correlated to quality. Not so with Harney & Sons—more than 30 years old and three generations strong, the company has always been committed to preserving founder John Harney's tradition of fine tea. Even as they've grown from their original six teas to more than 300, the renowned tea brand's dedication to its craft has never waivered. We'll drink to that.
My favorite Harney & Sons tea is the Hot Cinnamon, but it is always sold out. So I decided to try this one since I had received a sample of it and liked it. But I really like it now that I've had a lot of cups of it. It's got an really nice finish and it's definitely one of my favorite teas around.5
I love this tea! I first had it several years ago and it has become an essential in my morning routine. This tea is so amazing! It smells wonderful and I find that it has a lavender/bergamot flavor with subtle apricot fruit notes. It almost reminds me of an earl grey with a 'french chic' twist on it!5
Big tea drinker, partial to black. I can't recommend this blend enough. If you want to avoid adding sweentener but find tea too bland without it, this one has a subtle sweetness usually difficult to find in black teas. Just delicious! Thankful to Birchbox for the intro to this brand :)5

I am currently trying to write an ado-File for the creation of so-called
smop (surface measure of overall performance) values and in the very
first lines of code I have encountered the following problem:
Using STATA's syntax command variables entered by the user of the
program are stored as a local macro `varlist'. So, how can I access the
contents of `varlist' "one by one", i.e. how can I adrress each element
of `varlist' separately? - What I do not want is to make use of a loop
such as foreach... Any ideas?

text: Looking for some opinions. 1984 3/4 ton Scottsdale 5.7L, 4 barrel carb, 4 speed manual, heavy duty cam installed when it was only a couple years old. No catalytic converter (3/4 ton didn't have them that year), around 187,000 miles. Truck did a lot of hauling and towing including a 29 ft camper. Had some electrical issues (fuse link replaced next to the firewall) and brake issues. My dad bought it new in 1983, always smoked a little taken to the dealer several times while under warranty and they could adjust to either white or blue smoke but never completely got rid of it. Only used about 1/2 quart of oil between 3,000 mile oil changes. Truck was my daily driver from 1990 till 2000 then switched off between it and my 1990 Silverado 3500 7.4L. I helped take care of this truck from the day my dad brought it home, I learned to drive in it, and it was my graduation present in 1990. As many on here can probably relate it is still my baby. History lesson over - didn't have time to deal with the electrical and brake issues so the truck sat for about a year and a half. Finally decided it was time to put it back on the road, everything was back in working order but it was running real rich. Several weekends I ran it around the farm figuring with the fresh gas it would clear up then one weekend while it was just idling outside the garage for about 10 minutes it just stopped. Oil level was full and oil pressure was running normal before it quit. When it stopped I was standing within 20 feet of the truck and didn't hear any noises it just sounded like you shut the key off. Now you can't turn the motor by hand and it very slowly turns over with the starter and doesn't attempt to fire (the plugs are sparking). Now for the opinions - should I have the motor pulled and opened up to see what happened and if feasible to fix it or just go straight for a new motor? Haven't done any research yet so I have no idea how expensive either option would be. Any opinions/suggestions would be appreciated.

I have a few questions if I may about xrefs, containers, and how it all fits into a *single user* 'pipeline' (a word that seems to have so many different meanings at the moment. I am using it in the context of the data/asset pipeline as described in this series of articles).
I am trying to work out a "best practice" system which is a) simple enough for me to manage without an IT team behind me, but b) comprehensive enough to allow me to stay organised (my OCD comes into play at times like this ). My asset versioning will be done using Perforce (the free 20 user/workspace in recent versions is incredible! Kudos to Perforce!). For my purposes, there is no need (unless someone can think of a compelling reason why a single user would need it) to separate my models from my rigs (I will be doing no character/creature animation. It will be vehicles and other "props").
So, my questions are:
- What are the main differences between xrefs and containers? I can't seem to find much information about them on the net.
- I'm assuming that files referenced into other files be animated independently of the "master" file?
- Does the same hold true of dynamics simulations? If I have a scene where I perform a dynamics simulation on an asset (I am specifically thinking about a VolumeBreaker destruction), can I do that by referencing an asset into a scene and then performing the simulation on that reference? Would that best be an xref or container?
- IS there a compelling reason to separate animation rigs from models in my case (no bi- or quadrapedal animation, purely rigid body stuff)? Would that be achieved with a referencing workflow:
model --[ref]--> rigged_model --[ref]--> scene
? And would that be Xref or a container?
- Finally(!), can you use lo-res proxies in a scene the same way you can in Maya, swapping them out using MaxScript before rendering?
Many thanks for any help!

And they shall rebuild the old ruins, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the ruined cities, the desolations of many generations. Strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of the foreigner shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers. But you shall be named the priests of the Lord, they shall call you the servants of our God. You shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory you shall boast. Instead of your shame you shall have double honor.

guaranteed money

[/quote]Im kind of annoyed guys like canty and rolle havnt taken paycuts. I dont care what anyone says, Rolle does not deserve that contract.
Rolle did last year and we played him at corner for most of the season which is a more expensive position
[/quote]And he wasnt a very good corner.
I just dont like how Elis ALWAYS taking paycuts when he was a key factor in both super bowls and the road leading to them.
Both "restructures" of Eli's contract have made him MORE money, not less. When a team is over the cap they have decisions to make. They go where the money is. They may go to an expendable guy and threaten to cut him in order to take a pay cut. They also go to the high priced, indespensable guys like Eli and dangle a carrot in front of them to defer some pay. They don't go to an agent and say..."Gee...can you do us a favor?". Thast not how it works.

You guys need to wise up.

I'm staying: Switkowski
Page Tools
Telstra chief executive Ziggy Switkowski has declared he has "absolutely no intention of walking away" after the boardroom coup that last week ended the reign of his ally, Bob Mansfield, as chairman.
After biding his time amid swirling speculation, Dr Switkowski yesterday capitalised on Telstra's announcement of a better than expected 1 per cent rise in revenue in the March quarter to field questions about his future and to declare: "I intend to continue to lead this company."
He added that he was pursuing his plan to return Telstra's revenue growth rate to the industry benchmark of between 4 and 5 per cent by the end of 2006 - and knew that if he missed the target "my job would be at risk: I completely accept that".
Asked if he still enjoyed the unanimous support of the board, Dr Switkowski said he had received no indication "from anyone on the board that anything has changed".
After Dr Switkowski spoke, he and the board were praised by the Federal Government, which owns 50.1 per cent of Telstra, and needs its profits and share price higher ahead of any further privatisation.
"We congratulate the chief executive officer, Dr Ziggy Switkowski, the senior management team and the board on these positive results," Communications Minister Daryl Williams and Finance Minister Nick Minchin said in a statement.
Speculation about Dr Switkowski's future was fanned by the resignation of Mr Mansfield, who had angered his colleagues by advising Prime Minister John Howard about a recycled proposal for Telstra to buy the John Fairfax group, owner of The Age.
The Fairfax proposal was supported by Mr Mansfield and Dr Switkowski, but the board rejected it, and details were leaked to the media - sparking a witch-hunt inside Telstra and, finally, the boardroom move against Mr Mansfield.
"The former chairman and I had a close relationship. I believe it worked well for us, and I regret the circumstances that led to Bob resigning from the organisation," Dr Switkowski said. The outlook for Telstra and the industry it dominated was promising, he said, adding that his head was "held high".

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
Hi, Renee. Due to the newer IRS qualifications for "Qualifying Child" and "Qualifying Relative", it has become slightly more difficult to determine dependency.
According to the laws, your grandchildren are not eligible to be "Qualifying Children" for you because they do not live with you. They would be eligible to be "Qualifying Relatives" for you; however, in order to be a Qualifying Relative for someone, you cannot be a Qualifying Child of another person. They would, realistically, be Qualifying Children of their father, even though he does not file taxes.
Also, in order to claim a dependency exemption for someone, you must provide at least 50% of their support.

The Old Wives' Tale HTML version
II.2. Christmas And The Future
Mr. Povey was playing a hymn tune on the harmonium, it having been decided
that no one should go to chapel. Constance, in mourning, with a white apron over
her dress, sat on a hassock in front of the fire; and near her, in a rocking-chair,
Mrs. Baines swayed very gently to and fro. The weather was extremely cold. Mr.
Povey's mittened hands were blue and red; but, like many shopkeepers, he had
apparently grown almost insensible to vagaries of temperature. Although the fire
was immense and furious, its influence, owing to the fact that the mediaeval
grate was designed to heat the flue rather than the room, seemed to die away at
the borders of the fender. Constance could not have been much closer to it
without being a salamander. The era of good old-fashioned Christmases, so
agreeably picturesque for the poor, was not yet at an end.
Yes, Samuel Povey had won the battle concerning the locus of the family
Christmas. But he had received the help of a formidable ally, death. Mrs. Harriet
Maddack had passed away, after an operation, leaving her house and her money
to her sister. The solemn rite of her interment had deeply affected all the
respectability of the town of Axe, where the late Mr. Maddack had been a figure
of consequence; it had even shut up the shop in St. Luke's Square for a whole
day. It was such a funeral as Aunt Harriet herself would have approved, a
tremendous ceremonial which left on the crushed mind an ineffaceable, intricate
impression of shiny cloth, crape, horses with arching necks and long manes, the
drawl of parsons, cake, port, sighs, and Christian submission to the inscrutable
decrees of Providence. Mrs. Baines had borne herself with unnatural calmness
until the funeral was over: and then Constance perceived that the remembered
mother of her girlhood existed no longer. For the majority of human souls it would
have been easier to love a virtuous principle, or a mountain, than to love Aunt
Harriet, who was assuredly less a woman than an institution. But Mrs. Baines
had loved her, and she had been the one person to whom Mrs. Baines looked for
support and guidance. When she died, Mrs. Baines paid the tribute of respect
with the last hoarded remains of her proud fortitude, and weepingly confessed
that the unconquerable had been conquered, the inexhaustible exhausted; and
became old with whitening hair.
She had persisted in her refusal to spend Christmas in Bursley, but both
Constance and Samuel knew that the resistance was only formal. She soon
yielded. When Constance's second new servant took it into her head to leave a
week before Christmas, Mrs. Baines might have pointed out the finger of
Providence at work again, and this time in her favour. But no! With amazing
pliancy she suggested that she should bring one of her own servants to 'tide
Constance over' Christmas. She was met with all the forms of loving solicitude,
and she found that her daughter and son-in-law had 'turned out of' the state
bedroom in her favour. Intensely nattered by this attention (which was Mr.
Povey's magnanimous idea), she nevertheless protested strongly. Indeed she
'would not hear of it.'

The new and improved concussion thread

USA Hockey to consider banning body checking for youth players
USA Hockey is considering a proposal that would make bodychecking illegal for all players under 13, an initiative sure to ignite the growing debate over the proper time to introduce contact at the grassroots level.
The proposed measure was raised at USA Hockey's annual winter meeting in Colorado Springs, Colo., and according to the association's senior director of hockey development, Kevin McLaughlin, it was not designed primarily to address safety issues.
"It is a skill development initiative first," said McLaughlin, who explained that his organization's research found that bodychecking at the peewee level was significantly distracting players from improving their skills at a critical time in their development. Too often, he said, players of that age were either too focused on hitting or trying to avoid a hit."
The USA Hockey proposals, which also seek to penalize all contact to the head and neck area, will be voted on at the organization's annual congress in June.
According to McLaughlin, a series of research studies into head injuries that culminated with a concussion summit at the Mayo Clinic last fall also reinforced the need for the initiatives. McLaughlin cited a seminal report conducted by University of Calgary researcher Carolyn Emery and published in the Journal of the American Medical Association as pivotal as well.
Emery's report followed more than 2,000 peewee players – half from Alberta leagues, where bodychecking was permitted, and the rest from Quebec, where it wasn't. The results show a significant difference in the number of head injuries, with 73 concussions among Alberta players over the 2007-2008 season, compared to 20 in Quebec. There were 14 severe concussions in Alberta, versus four in Quebec.
"What we find is that an 11-year-old brain is more susceptible to concussion," McLaughlin said. "The 11- and 12-year-old brain is not cognitively developed to anticipate being hit. So if you can't anticipate it and you can't protect yourself, you're putting yourself in a predicament to suffer a more severe injury."

Château de Beaulon
Built in 1480 by the de Vinsons family, the Chateau became the property of the "de Beaulon" family in 1510 and their name remains today.
In the XVII century, the heir of Beaulon His Grace de Nesmond, bishop of Bayeux and Advisor to King Louis XIV placed the Chateau in the management of the Bishops of Bordeaux. They were to have a determining influence on the vineyards.
As amateurs of Sauternes wines they decided to produce the same richness and quality from their very own vineyards, as a result Semillon and Sauvignon grape varieties were added to the vineyards and then Cabernets Franc and Sauvignon completed the Medoc influence. This Bordeaux trend has proved essential to the production of Beaulon Pineau des Charentes, over the centuries it has become the hallmark of elegance which distinguishes Beaulon Pineau from its competitors.
In 1965 Christian Thomas acquired the Chateau and it continues as a family business today. He undertook the extension of the vineyards.
Chateau de Beaulon Cognac and Pineau des Charentes, under the firm passionate control of Christian Thomas for more than forty years, have become synonymous with exceptional quality, be it at home or abroad.
The Cognac and Pineau are produced from a single vineyard , unique in the Charente region and registered in the cadastral register under the Beaulon estate, as such guaranteeing the authenticity of the chateau.
Contrary to modern trends, Beaulon has remained faithful to the region's traditional 16th century vine stocks : Folle Blanche, Colombard and Montils .
Distillation on light lees in small copper pot stills.
Very long ageing in Limousin or Tronçais oak barrels, generally two to three times longer than legally required and … even longer for the rarer quality products. All over its estate, Cognac Chateau de Beaulon has a balanced approach to wine growing in the best spirit of sustainable development.

Agnes Nixon, creator of both All My Children and One Life To Live, chimed in tonight with her approval of Prospect Park's plans to resurrect the canceled ABC soaps. On her blog and on Facebook, Nixon wrote, "We of the One Life to Live and All My Children families are thrilled to bring our beloved viewers new, ongoing stories from Llanview and Pine Valley." It's believed to be the first time Nixon has said anything publicly about Prospect Park's second attempt to bring the soaps back online. "I'm especially grateful to Prospect Park for deploying the power of you, our fans, to enable this exciting transition to dramatic production for the Internet. It's a historic moment, comparable to how life was changed when television took over for radio." Prospect Park has secured agreements with SAG-AFTRA and DGA but is expected to forgo an accord with the Writers Guild and use "financial core" writers who opt for reduced membership status. Details remain scarce but AMC alum Vincent Irizarry (Dr. David Hayward) has agreed to return as has Lindsay Hartley (who played Cara Martin). Nixon did not say whether she will play a part in the soaps' resurrection.
'AMC', 'OLTL' Creator Agnes Nixon Gives Prospect Park Reboots Her Blessing
24 Comments
Today is AMC's birthday. Happy bday Erica :)
You are right! Happy 43rd BIRTHDAY AMC!!
This has made my day! I love me some OLTL and cried during the last episode. With it being on the internet and then possibly on cable, it can break some more barriers.
The fans believed in Agnes Nixon's vision as did Prospect Park. We never stopped contacting people and showed the loyalty of soap opera fans. I look forward to future visits to Pine Valley and One Life To Live !
I'll believe that these shows are back when I see them!
BTW, Prospect Park should also, besides showing these shows online, syndicate them to local TV stations.
I'm sure there are general managers and program directors of quite a few TV stations whose daytime lineups of syndicated shows aren't doing well at the moment and would love to pick-up these shows!
I agree with you many stations suffer and those ABC affiliates that carried Regis, Oprah, ET than you sandwich them in with AMC, OLTL…No Regis, No Oprah, No Mary Hart, No Erica Kane and No Vikki Lord. for the last 25-30 yrs these names are staples and the new flock of talent isn't nothing to write home about.
i am very exicited to hear that they may finally be bring back 2 of my favorite soaps. i have missed oltl & amc so much. having some of the characters on GH is great but not as great as having all the others back. i miss the Bachans,lords.krammer women,martins and mostly Erica Kane. i am lookig forward
I'm sorry to burst everyone's bubble but…how naieve could you guys be? Everything is coming out in bits and pieces just like last time. Call me when they have all their ducks ina row. What do you guys expect from a company whose inittals are "pp"?
I hope you bring both all my children and one life to live back to tv as well as the internet thank you of Prospect Park
I'm glad that Prospect Park came to their senses and ressurected AMC & OLTL. I hope that they picked up where they left off. On AMC, did JR really shoot Erica? On OLTL, will everyone know that Victor is really alive? I hope we find out soon.
Will this be online as well as TV?
Will this be on all cable TV or is th
there going to be extra cost?
Will the shows be on at different
times or only a certain time.
When will the actual show begin
and with most of the characters
as before. This is wonderful
news because I am a dedicated
fan of both soaps.
As for AMC, call up Sarah michelle Gellar if Alicia Minshew's not on board. Kendall the villain-yeah!!
when are you all going to bring all my children and on life to live back on tv i wish you all would
This is it. :D This is something we've really dreamed of-"All My Children" and "One Life To Live" coming back from the dead! =D
This is true soap opera Theatrics, It will probably be just a dream for one year and then they're back, Can't wait…
My Daughter just called and broke this news. I couldn't take the call, all she said was "I have Great News For You", I was shocked when I called her back. I just started googling. These stories have been part of my life since they started. I started watching OLTL and AMC when I was 13/14 years old. It was such a sad day to loose all of my friends at one time. I watch GH faithfully. Happy to see any of the crossover stories that they have from OLTL. This is the best news. I will continue to be a loyal fan and I will figure out whatever it takes to be able to watch on the internet.
Thanks, keep up the great work Prospect Part, I wish you all of the success that ABC lost when they cancelled these wonderful stories from all of our lives.
Let's hope it's true. These were always great show, replaced with crappy talk shows. If ABC did not want to have this on the network, should have transferred them to SOAPNET. Instead of getting rid of great show all the soaps should probably be migrated here…So many great shows gone last few years. Passions, Guiding Light, As The Worlds Turns, Another World, etc. Probably could have saved cost and maybe changed them to half hour formats on SOAPNET.
Who knows if this format works, just like soap opera characters coming back from the dead, some of these shows can be resurrected as well.
Tears of JOY at the news that All My Children will actually be returning!!!! I never thought it would happen. I have been watching reruns on Direct TV soapnet ever since the show's last episode…and was extremely grateful to at least have that to watch. I even switched from Comcast to Direct TV because Comcast cancelled soapnet…and I just had to have my All My Children, even if it was the reruns! I cannot WAIT to start watching it again on the internet. THANK YOU to Prospect Park and everyone else who is making this happen!!!!!!!
Thrilled that both shows may be back.
AMC has been my "constant" during many moves. When I lived in Puerto Rico, it kept me connected.
I think it great it will be on the internet. My parents became AMC fans. I hope that they will make DVD's of the new series. It will help the older audience!
Really, really looking forward to having the best Soap Opera's
returning!! And really hoping not to be dissapointed again, it's
The soap opera is a dying genre of daytime broadcast television. Although I would never totally discount the possibility of a renaissance of any entertainment format, the factors that contributed to the success of daytime dramas or "soaps," namely– an abundant middle-class affluence, with a majority of two-parent homes in which the female head of household was in the home during the daytime, are unlikely to ever be present again.
Even before "All My Children" was canceled by ABC-TV, it had been terribly written and with mostly poor actors the last decade of its existence, performers with more modeling than acting experience on their resumes.
Actually, the heyday of daytime drama was 1965-75, and the CBS soaps ("As The World Turns," "The Edge Of Night," "The Guiding Light," "Love Of Life," "Search For Tomorrow," and "The Secret Storm") the best of them all, its casts comprised of actors and actresses with much actual stage experience to their credits. ABC soaps had always catered/pandered to a less-educated, less-affluent demographic of viewers.
"Another World" on NBC was of a caiber closer to the CBS soaps, though, created by Irna Phillips and produced by Procter & Gamble, the folks who put the "soap" in soap opera.
Keep Mcbain, Todd and Starr on General Hospital! That's just ridiculous taking them off.
your right g.h. should keep them and put oltl amc back on ABC WHATS wrong with ABC
Without our original Walt Willy and Susan Lucci and Opal it can't be the same. Will any original players be back except wicked David? If not leave it alone so the original player's are our last remembrance. They ruined everything. I will never watch those replacement shows. All of my family died when I was 17. I grew up with and lived the years with AMC. To do this to faithful viewers was a slap in the face. Shame on you. The damage has been done unless All OUR Children come back.!!!!!!!!

Cardamom is a spice rarely used in traditional Western cooking, but once you've discovered it, you'll surely want to cook with it more often. Related to the ginger plant, cardamom has a warm, slightly sweet, lemony flavor. It has a strong aroma but is so subtle that it harmoniously underscores the mild flavor of warmed, buttery cucumbers. This makes an excellent side dish to simple grilled fish or herbed chicken and takes but a few minutes to prepare.
1. Peel the cucumbers and slice them lengthwise in half. Remove the seeds. Cut the cucumbers into 1/2-inch wide pieces.
2. Heat the butter in a large skillet over low heat. Stir in the cardamom and toast for a minute or so, then add the cucumbers, salt, and white pepper and heat slowly, about 3- 4 minutes, until the cucumbers are warmed but not mushy. Serve warm.©1997, Katherine Heyhoe. All rights reserved

Concern Is Rising in the Middle East Over Islamist Extremism
With the Islamic State, the group formerly known as the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham, making territorial gains in Iraq, the horror of the Syrian civil war continuing unabated, and Israel in mourning over the kidnapping and killing of three teenagers, it is perhaps no surprise that the countries of the Middle East are alarmed at the spread of militant beliefs in the region. With violence and unrest marring the region, new data released by the Pew Research Center for 14 countries with substantial Muslim populations shows high levels of concern for Islamist extremism.
With the Syrian Civil War entering its fourth year and a coalition of violent extremist groups challenging the rule of President Bashar al-Assad, border nations Turkey and Jordan have seen double-digit increases in the levels of concern expressed over militant violence, In Turkey, 31 percent say they are concerned over extremism. In Jordan, that figure is 62 percent.
In Lebanon, a country to which millions of refugees from the war have fled, 92 percent say they are concerned by extremism, a worry that is shared by the country's Muslims and Christians.
The Syrian civil war is also having an apparent effect on Hezbollah, the mighty Shiite political and military group based in Lebanon. Having deployed fighters in Syria to bolster the Assad regime, Hezbollah is seeing its popularity plummet in several nations in the region. In Lebanon, however, it has retained a formidable base of support:
Interestingly, the poll, which was carried about between April 10 and May 25 and included more than 14,000 responses, shows a decline in the popularity of Hamas — the militant group in control of Gaza and labeled a terrorist group by the United States — within the Palestinian territories. Since it took control of the Gaza strip in 2007, Hamas has seen in its unfavorability ratings markedly rise among Palestinians:
More radical groups are also experiencing challenges in the court of public opinion. In Nigeria, where the militant group Boko Haram gained worldwide notoriety earlier this year for their kidnapping of 300 schoolgirls, some 76 percent say they have a highly unfavorable opinion of the group.

They said they were going to process the refund, but I never saw anything.
When I followed up with them the email address that I had been using was no longer working. Dwolla processed the transaction and told me they could not help due to the time frame. Dealscube came back with the same response. These companies do not care about the customer and have to be running illegal activities. I would be interested in banning together in a class action suit.

In the next day or two the setting on the falconcam at the University of Pittsburgh will move out for a wider view of the nest. It won't be a major change but those of you who watch daily will see a difference.
Why zoom out?
For the past eight weeks the action at the nest has been focused on one tiny area – the scrape where the eggs were laid – because the chicks weren't very mobile.
But now at fifteen days old (that's today) they've begun to move around the nest platform. They're discovering their feet and wings and will soon figure out they can pursue their parents if food doesn't reach them fast enough. The camera will pull back so we don't miss the action.
To give you an idea of how it will look here's a comparison using a snapshot from last year when the camera was set at the wider angle. I cropped the photo to match the zoomed-in view and placed that above. The bottom one is wide angle.
Notice what the zoomed-in view misses. There's a chick with his beak open at the front of the box near the green perch. Why is he begging? In the top picture all we can see is his parent's tail. In the wider view we know he's begging because Mom is holding food in her beak. Click on the picture for a second example when the chicks are about to fledge. Notice the cute expression you'd never see if the camera was zoomed in!
There's one more thing to know about the camera. During the nesting season its weatherproof cover gets dirty. Sometimes prey feathers stick to it, sometimes the sun glints off the rain spots, sometimes the sun reflects inside the cover and makes it hard to see. This is just a normal side effect of watching wildlife through a remote camera. We can't clean the camera while they're nesting so we'll just have to bear with it. The good news is that it can be cleaned on banding day, if time permits, when the Game Commission goes out on the ledge to band the nestlings.

Here's an unusual flower: the Shooting Star (Dodecatheon meadia). Its white flowers point downward like stars with streamers, hence its name. To see a close-up of the flowers, click on the link.
Shooting Star blooms in May but you'll have to look for it quickly. The plants dies back in the summer.

The Don't Walk robins were busy at their nest last week when Sam Leinhardt spent time with his camera at Forbes and Craig. He captured some great photos which I've highlighted in a new slideshow today. (Click on the photo to see the slideshow; it repeats until you close the window.)
The babies continued to grow and thrive. They changed from blind, nearly naked birds into recognizable baby robins. Their eyes opened first, then they grew feathers and began to open their wings. They must have been surprised to see the world. Something to flap about!
About halfway through the slideshow you'll see they grew brown feathers on their heads except for two rows of fluff that looked like horns … another Bad Hair Day for birds. By the end of the sequence they really look like robins and have nearly lost those horns.
Such a rapid transformation!
By the time I wrote this, they'd flown.

Last week the PA Game Commission's Beth Fife solved a peregrine mystery that had lasted a year – or ten years – depending on who you ask.
In January 2008 Joe Fedor reported a pair of peregrine falcons at the McKees Rocks Bridge. The Pennsylvania Game Commission is responsible for our peregrines so Wildlife Conservation Officer Beth Fife worked with PennDOT to see if she could find a nest.
Yes, the pair had eggs last year but they were laid on a girder. The nest was ultimately unsuccessful. However Beth saw that the male was banded though no one could read his bands.
This spring peregrines were still at the bridge and PennDOT wanted to know if they must change their work schedule to avoid disturbing a nest, so last week Beth visited the bridge again.
PennDOT guessed the nest's location and sure enough there it was. The male was incubating five eggs while his unbanded mate watched from nearby. Beth wrote later, "He didn't even make a fuss…we could have picked him up. He just stood there and watched us. He's a little guy! "
Beth snapped his picture and captured a good image of his bands. Ta dah! Black/green V/H. His name is Bravo, born at Cleveland's Terminal Tower in 1999, son of the Zenith and Bullet. His whereabouts had been unknown all this time.
So you see, a ten year old mystery is solved for Cleveland.
We hope his nest is a success this year. Good detective work, Beth!

…the two nestlings are here.
If you were worried earlier this week that Tasha was spending too much time brooding her chicks at the Gulf Tower nest, worry no more. They're alive and well and standing up on their own.
My heavens, they're growing fast!

Coming soon to a cherry tree near you… tent worms!
Their real name is the Eastern Tent Caterpillar (Malacosoma americanum) but I've called them "tent worms" ever since a memorable spring in the late 1960's when they overran the neighborhood. They were everywhere. We couldn't walk without stepping on them. Ewwwww!
Eastern tent caterpillars are actually moths that eat plants in the Rosaceae family including apples, chokecherries and black cherries. Most people don't notice them until they build silken tents in the trees.
Tent worms are among the most social of all caterpillars. Their mother lays a cluster of 200-300 eggs on a cherry tree (for instance) in spring or early summer. The caterpillars develop inside the eggs but they don't hatch until the following spring. Just before the tree leafs out, the tiny caterpillars emerge from the eggs and work together to spin a tent to keep them moist and safe.
Every day the caterpillars come out of their tent to eat the leaves. As they walk, they lay scent trails to follow back to their tent at the end of the day. As the caterpillars grow they make their tents larger to bury their waste and provide a place to hide between eating excursions.
When they're ready to become moths, the party breaks up and each caterpillar goes off on its own to weave a cocoon.
This is what they look like as moths. Rather unremarkable. They have a 2.2 to 4.4-inch wingspan.
I'm not fond of tent worms but they're a favorite food of black-billed and yellow-billed cuckoos who arrive on migration just in time to eat them. Bring on the cuckoos!

Have you noticed the transition at the Pitt peregrine nest in the last two days? This boring picture demonstrates it.
Brooding is over. The chicks can regulate their own body temperature so their parents don't need to shelter them all the time. Here they are asleep, surrounded by the feathers and body parts (wings) of this morning's breakfast.
Where's Mom? She's guarding them out of camera view or is out hunting while Dad stands watch. She knows her nestlings will be fine alone.

White Trillium are in full bloom throughout southwestern Pennsylvania. Last weekend I saw them carpeting the hillsides in the Laurel Highlands at Indian Creek and at Wolf Creek Narrows near Slippery Rock.
Trillium used to be quite plentiful at the Trillium Trail in Fox Chapel until the deer ate all the wildflowers. Fox Chapel fenced the trail a few years ago and the flowers made a comeback. Here are some Dianne Machesney found there last weekend.
Such beauty!

Every year I'm amazed at how quickly Dorothy gives up on housekeeping after the chicks hatch. She's able to keep the nest fairly clean in the first few days but inevitably there's one meal – usually a pigeon – that tips the balance.
Here she is presiding over her nest and chicks at 7:00am today. The chicks are so large she can hardly brood them, but it's dark and rainy so she shelters them amidst the wreckage of prior meals. They make a sweet picture except for the exploded prey around them.
It would be healthier for her family if she kept the nest clean but, as she would tell you, none of her chicks ever died from a dirty nest. 😉
