Kistaco Farm History
In 1922 Claude R. Yerger and Bertha Kimmel Yerger purchased
120 acres in Kiskiminetas Township, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania. Shortly
after they moved to the farm, they named it Kistaco (Kiss/tah/koe)
Farm, which is an acronym derived from Kiskiminetas Township,
Armstrong County. Before 1923 they planted their
first apple trees.
Over the next 30 years, Kistaco Farm produced everything
from milk, hogs, and eggs to fruits and vegetables. Apples were then,
as now, the main crop.
In 1950 William L. Hileman, who had worked on the farm from
the age of 10, went into partnership with Mr. Yerger. In 1957 Bill married
the Yerger's youngest daughter, Lois Jean. By this time the farm had
transitioned to strictly fruit and vegetable production.
Through the 1960s and early 1970s
Bill and Jean Hileman took the business from mainly wholesale to direct
marketing by establishing Kistaco Farm's first on-site farm market. They
also attended many weekly farmers' markets including Heidelberg,
Greensburg, and East Liberty.
In 1986 Timothy W. Hileman, Bill
and Jean's oldest son, went into partnership with Bill.
In 1996 Tim and his
wife, Suzanne, became the owners of Kistaco Farm. They, along with the
help of their three children, Miranda, Alex and Leah, still produce
apples, cider and many other seasonal fruits and vegetables on the 235-acre

Dismissed totally without merit, now received a lba for the same thing
Hi All,
A claim against me was dismissed without merit. The claimant has since sent me a LBA email stating that she has started a new a new claim against me for exactly the same thing but she has worded it differently. (i just wish i could post them) but she might see it all and it would be hard for me to give you an idea of the claim without the letters )
I understand there is a certain word or law where she can not bring the same claim again, she would have to appeal the first? Please advise?

Concerned citizens petition the Mayor and Seattle City Council to create a Special Benefits District for associated Alaskan Way replacement costs
As the first part of the Alaskan Way viaduct is coming down in the following days, a group of citizens is trying once more to fight the proposed tunnel and point out its deficiencies.
Reluctantly accepting that the viaduct is coming down, the so-called Highway Safety Advocates are setting out to shift Seattle's apportioned overrun costs to those who so fervently wanted it, and to draw the public's attention to the safety concerns of the tunnel.
Spearheaded by Ed Plute, Christopher Brown, and Victor Gray, the group delivered a petition to the Mayor and Seattle City Council on Friday, asking the city to assess all City of Seattle costs on, for and behalf of the deep bore tunnel entirely to the benefitting property owners in the Central Business District.
"We're admitting that we cannot stop the tunnel. It's going to be built. It's about getting taxed for something I don't support and I'm never going to use," said Plute at an HSA meeting in Ballard earlier this week.
The State Legislature has capped the State's share of the cost of the deep-bored tunnel to $2.4 billion with an additional sum of up to $400 million which can be raised from toll revenues.
The implementing statute has mandated that all other costs including the relocation of the City's utility systems must be borne by "the City of Seattle".
This statute also states that any cost overruns are to be paid by Seattle.
"People say the statute won't hold up in court but I think it will fly," said Brown.
Brown explained that the tunnel will require 70 megawatts daily for tunnel lighting and ventilation. While WSDOT's maintenance budget will fund the costs of the megawatts, Seattle will have to pay for building the system to provide the power.
"The trouble is, to get the power to the tunnel the cost is in the order of about $170 million and that ain't hay," Brown said.
In addition to the construction and operation costs, the HSA believes that Seattle will have to shoulder the liability and lawsuits that will inevitably arise from the tunnel as it's currently designed.
Having carefully combed through the tunnel design and Environmental Impact Statements, Brown came to the conclusion that the proposed tunnel is "an inherently unsafe device".
Brown cited safety issues such as inaccessibility for emergency and operating vehicles in case of an accident, deviations from the federally adopted highway standards, insufficient handicap accommodation, and narrow shoulders.
"Accidents are going to happen and the city could be considered negligent in the design of the tunnel and be burdened by lawsuits, if not class action suits, by people who get trapped in the tunnel," Brown said. "Be that as it may, the liability should lie with those who want the tunnel."
The purpose of the petition is to request that the City of Seattle create a Special Benefits District as designed by a June 1, 2010 study by Allen-Brackett-Shedd.
The analysis was designed to assist the City of Seattle in the Alaskan Way Viaduct and Seawall Replacement Program and in decision making regarding the potential feasibility for a Local Improvement District (LID) or multiple LIDs.
An LID is a district in which those who own property that increases in value due to an improvement, pay for the improvement. In this case, the LID would surround approximately 10,000 downtown Seattle households and businesses along the waterfront that would benefit from a new open waterfront.
"Since the Downtown Seattle Association and the Seattle Chamber of Commerce have been fully supportive of the project, and recognizing that they with others are the beneficiaries of the project, it is only fair to the suburban Seattle neighborhoods that they be responsible for the attendant costs shifted to Seattle by the Legislature," the petition states.
"I think now, the way to throw a monkey wrench into this project is to bring up the money," said Plute. "That will at least get people to listen."

At 2-0 for the first time in three years, Arizona State men's basketball has had little trouble incorporating Jahii Carson into the offense and adjusting to the increased tempo coach Herb Sendek promised to implement before the season.
Weak non-conference schedule or not, ASU has displayed a cohesiveness and passion that had been lacking in previous years.
"The guys are really trying to make each other better and play together," Sendek said Sunday after the Sun Devils' 97-70 win over Florida A&M. "I think this group genuinely likes each other, which carries over to the court."
The 97 points was the third-most ASU has scored in Sendek's seven seasons, and five players scored in double figures in both games, the first time that has happened in consecutive contests since 2008.
Carson has looked right at home, leading the team in scoring with 17.5 points per game, and Sendek said the redshirt-freshman is contributing as expected thus far.
"He's had a tremendous impact," Sendek said of Carson. "He's incredibly unselfish. He just wants to help us win. We really believe in him, we have a lot of faith in him, we love him."
ASU's next test comes Tuesday against Cornell, a team the Sun Devils have never played.
The Big Red are 1-3 to open the season but have held opponents under 40 percent shooting from the field, so the points may be a little more difficult to come by for ASU, which has posted a 48.8 percent mark in its two games.
On the other side of the ball, Cornell hasn't scored more than 68 points in any game this season, and averages just 58.8.
After facing Cornell, ASU will hit the road for the first time this season as it travels to Las Vegas for two games as part of the Continental Tire Las Vegas Invitational.
The Sun Devils meet Arkansas on Friday, and will face either Wisconsin or Creighton Saturday.
ASU update
The Sun Devils (2-0) won their first two games of the season for the first time since 2009-10, when they started 4-0. ... ASU has outscored its two opponents 94-63 in the first half. ... Redshirt-freshman guard Jahii Carson leads the team with 17.5 points and 6.0 assists per game. ... ASU has never played Cornell, but is 5-0 against the Ivy League.
Cornell update
The Big Red (1-3) come off a 73-40 road loss to Wisconsin on Sunday. ... The team is shooting 35.5 percent from the field, and holding opponents to 39.7 percent. ... Sophomore guard Devin Cherry leads all scorers with 10.3 points per game. ... Sophomore forward Deion Giddens played at Surprise Willow Canyon High. ... Cornell is 2-10 all-time against Pac-12 teams, and hasn't won a game against the conference since 1992.

Special Collections' new winter exhibit, "Snow Scenes of Winters Past," gives this year's snow-starved region a visual feast of past snows in the history of Appalachian State University. A physical exhibit is now on display on the 4th floor of Belk Library and Information Commons on the Appalachian State campus. A digital component, which maps a selection of the images on display to their locations on campus, is available through this link.
The exhibit draws on images from the University Archives' photo collections and The Rhododendron yearbooks and presents a multitude of snow scenes on campus from the 1920s to the 2000s. The exhibit explores three themes: "Snow Activities," which include all of the many amusements that snow provides — sledding, skating, skiing, snowball fights, and even snow juggling; "Winter Beauty: Natural and Man-Made," which showcases scenic beauty of snow on campus as well as several images of creative snow sculptures that students have fashioned over the years; and "Coping with Snow," which reveals that snow does have some downsides, as in digging cars out of snow, University Physical Plant workers preparing the campus for foot traffic, and steeling oneself to brave winter snow and wind to get across campus.
The exhibit was curated by Greta Browning and Graham Shelton, graduate student in history at Appalachian State University. The digital exhibit was created by Dan Devine. The exhibit on the 4th floor will be available through the end of March. By then, maybe we'll be ready for spring!

ROME — Former 100-metre world-record holder Asafa Powell, Jamaican teammate Sherone Simpson and their Canadian physical trainer were formally placed under criminal investigation for allegedly violating Italy's doping laws, police said Tuesday.
The move came a day after Italian police confiscated unidentified substances in a raid on the hotel where the trio was staying in the northeastern town of Lignano Sabbiadoro after the athletes tested positive for banned stimulants.
The trainer is Christopher Xuereb of Toronto. Xuereb has not responded to a request for comment by The Canadian Press.
Both Powell and Simpson, who tested positive for the stimulant oxilofrine, train under coach Stephen Francis at the high-profile MVP Track and Field Club in Jamaica. In an interview on Jamaican radio station HITZ 92 on Monday, Francis blamed the positive tests on Xuereb.
"We are not disowning Asafa, we are just saying this relates to his personal employee. The trainer has nothing to do with MVP," Francis said.
Francis told the radio station that he told Powell to only trust people who were with him from the start.
"If you are going to sink, sink with people who were always around," Francis said.
Udine prosecutors believe the trio violated Article 9 of the doping laws, which calls for punishment for whoever administers or consumes banned substances.
Police were still analyzing the substances seized to determine if they were legal or not.
Being formally placed under investigation is a step up in the Italian justice system from someone simply "informed of the facts," which is how someone can be questioned by police. That occurred after the raid early Monday, when the trio were brought to a local police station.
Jamaican athletes have made Lignano their in-season training base for years.
A local athletics meet was scheduled for later Tuesday in Lignano and Jamaicans had been scheduled to compete as they do most years. However, neither Powell nor Simpson were on start lists released Monday.
It was unclear if the athletes were still in Lignano. A hotel receptionist told The Associated Press late Monday that Xuereb had checked out.
The news of the positive tests for Powell and Simpson came the same day that American 100-metre record holder Tyson Gay revealed that he also failed a doping test.
Also Monday, discus thrower Allison Randall acknowledged that she was one of the five Jamaican athletes who tested positive for a banned substance at the Jamaican championships last month, along with Powell and Simpson.
Randall holds the island's record for the discus throw and competed at the London Olympics. Her statement says she was "shocked and surprised" at the findings and hopes her backup sample will clear her name.
The Jamaica Athletics Administrative Association issued a brief statement Monday saying an anti-doping management process has started for the athletes. It did not identify the two other athletes who tested positive.
Powell was the last man to hold the 100-metre world record before Usain Bolt broke it in 2008. He also helped the Jamaicans to the 4×100-metre relay gold medal at the 2008 Olympics.
Simpson won Olympic gold in the women's 4×100 relay in 2004 and silver in 2012, along with an individual silver in the 100 in 2008.
The findings come a month after another Jamaican Olympic champion, Veronica Campbell-Brown, tested positive for a banned diuretic.
Associated Press writer David McFadden in Kingston, Jamaica, contributed to this report

Would you allow your child to drive a car?
I'm not talking about your teenager who is working on his learner's permit so he can experience the thrill of the wind in his hair as he cruises the suburbs with his window down, desperately trying to rid the interior of that sweet reefer aroma.
Toyota has created a new electric car just for the young'uns. The Japanese company debuted the environmentally correct Camatte on June 15 at the International Tokyo Toy Show in Tokyo.
Powered by a lead-acid battery and a small electric motor, the Camatte is every bit as boxy as today's grown-up car styles. It is 106 inches long, 51 inches wide and 47 inches high.
So, although it's only marginally bigger than the teeny, weeny Smart car, it's not street-legal.
Since it can go only about 25 miles per hour, parents need not worry about any impromptu shopping trips to Nashville.
However, the vision of a child driving a non-street-legal motor vehicle at 25 miles per hour in a parking lot full of cars insured by adults who probably know how to contact a lawyer is the prelude to a nervous breakdown.
Here's the reassuring news: The Camatte enables parents to be back-seat drivers – literally.
It's equipped with braking and steering controls in the rear seating area. The catch is that the rear seat is located between the two front seats.
Therefore, any safety-conscious parent had better forego the supersized fries at the drive-thru restaurant.
OK, it's green. But it's cramped, slow and built to be driven by prepubescent neophytes, albeit with Mom and Dad's assistance.
So what's the point?
Toyota executives think that they can create Toyota traditions in Toyota families if they start with the kids.
With the Camatte, they are targeting affluent car buyers who have enough disposable income to spoil their little darlings with expensive toys at Beverly Hills-style birthday parties.
You know, the ones where the hired clown is a member of the Screen Actors Guild and puts on the funny nose and floppy shoes to earn money between auditions for two-line roles in low-budget movies?
In other words, it's a concept car.
Theoretically, if the kids want to drive it at the park or on a track designed for kiddie karts, maybe it has some recreational value to those who can afford it.
And here's another kid-friendly touch. If your little one doesn't particularly care for the color you choose, she can switch the body panels to alter the car's color and style.
But jokes about Tinkertoys aside, Toyota's bigwigs apparently are quite serious about grooming the next generation to gravitate to their brand. And they don't want your children to wait until they are old enough to see over the steering wheel of whatever you drive.
What do you think?
Should a child get a head start on learning what a car is all about by driving his very own parent-supervised vehicle? Or should he wait for adolescence to learn how to drive, insure and take care of the real thing?
By the way, "Camatte" is an offshoot of the Japanese word "kamau," which means "to care for."

Marmalade sales are declining as children are instead choosing peanut butter and chocolate spreads. Paddington Bear would be a very different body shape these days.
Cheap chic
Kate Middleton is now repeating outfits within an 11-day cycle. We're hoping for a next-day wear. Then she'll really deserve that thrifty title.
Fashion sense
Competition-winning interns can produce the October issue of ELLE. They'll be paid "contributor fees". Creative genius or just a sign of these penny-pinching times?
Beckham's bad boys
A role model for Breivik, and chosen alongside Mugabe to represent the UN. It's a bad week for David Beckham.

Thanks Blaqpearl for responding.
I've tried conditionere w/honey, worked pretty good. Oils and good ole fashion grease.
I'm thinking like Law I'm going to go "Productless"...I got caught in the rain yesterday and sure enough my hair was looking like Sideshow Bob,
so I went home and cond-wash, rinse and started twisting with no products at all. Once I was done I put my twists on rods and went to bed. This morning I unfurled them and they look no worse than with products applied. I think I'm going to do this for a couple weeks and see how this goes....I think Law may be on to something.

Shine, I think I can envision what you are saying.... putting a square down, and only sanding till the edges of the square start to taper, but stays a square?
bodyman, great info. so, one good thing about taking that class was the availability of great tools... I did pickup a 6" da sander from my favorite place to spend as little money as possible (Harbor Freight). I also got one of their inline sanders as well... not as good as a hutchins, but 1/6 the price.
I am not afraid to spend on something really good if needed... I do plan on doing this all again with my son in about 12 years, so if the tool is required, I will go for it.
plus I got a bunch of 6 inch disks already... do I really need 8"? tell me it ain't so.
Totally got you on the pressure... I do tend to press rather than change out the paper. I noticed that I press less when using the 16" durablock over the 3m block.
I will get a few hours in on her tomorrow and will try to do it without the featherfill. I like trial by fire until it gets too hot.

The concept of species has played a central role in both evolutionary biology and the philosophy of biology, and has been the focus of a number of books in recent years. This book differs from other recent collections in two ways. It is more explicitly integrative and analytical, centering on issues of general significance such as pluralism and realism about species. It also draws on a broader range of disciplines and brings neglected cognitive, anthropological, and historical dimensions to philosophical debates over species.
The chapters are organized around five themes: unity, integration, and pluralism; species realism; historical dimensions; cognitive underpinnings; and practical import. The contributors include prominent researchers from anthropology, botany, developmental psychology, the philosophy of biology and science, protozoology, and zoology.
Scott Atran, Richard Boyd, Kevin de Queiroz, John Dupré, Marc Ereshefsky, Paul E. Griffiths, David L. Hull, Frank C. Keil, Brent D. Mishler, David L. Nanney, Daniel C. Richardson, Kim Sterelny, Robert A. Wilson
About the Editor
Rob Wilson received his Ph.D. in Philosophy from Cornell University in 1992, and has taught at Queen's University, Canada (1992-1996), and the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign (1996-2001), where he was a member of the Cognitive Science Group at the university's Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology. Since July 2000 he has been professor of philosophy at the University of Alberta, in Edmonton, Canada. His areas of professional interest are the philosophy of the mind, the foundations of cognitive science, and the philosophy of biology. He recently edited Species: New Interdisciplinary Essays (MIT Press, 1999), and with Frank Keil, is the general editor of The MIT Press Encyclopedia of the Cognitive Sciences (MIT Press, 1999). See also his webpage: http://www.ualberta.ca/~philosop/faculty/wilson/.
"This is a fresh, well-conceived collection on one of the most persistent problems in the philosophy of biology—the species problem. Unlike most anthologies, but like many species, it is cohesive and integrated."
—Robert N. Brandon, Professor of Philsophy and Zoology, Duke University

After you did all of your researches, and now have a few netbook models on your shopping list. You are almost there, and you need to close it with good buying tricks.
- Go with a bigger netbook manufacturer such as business broadband. Unless you are technically savvy, it is reasonable to go with a mini-laptop made by one of the major manufacturers. Although a few lesser-known brands may work adequately, it's usually less risky to go with a familiar name brand. That is because you will likely get better supports and larger manufacturer tend to have greater user community in the internet. In many cases, you'll find online forums offer better and faster helps than what you'll get from the customer supports.
- Check out feedbacks and reviews – online retailer web sites such as NewEgg and Amazon are good sources for user reviews. Get as many testimonials as you can. Generally, an important tenet of statistics is that the bigger the sample size, the more accurate the data will be.
- Compare prices. Prices vary widely, especially online. Every cent saved these days counts, and you may easily save an extra 20 bucks with a smart buying technique, depending on where you buy the netbook. Amazon, Buy.com, and Newegg all stock netbooks, as do most smaller online laptop retailers – Google is your best buddy in finding them. If you are low on cash but still need a mobile computing, consider early netbook models. With sellers getting rid of older and discontinued models, you may find some great price cuts on various online deals – and don't forget about using eBay. Many times, you can get brand-new early model netbooks for about $150 or less.
- Shop at local stores. If possible find a local store that sells netbooks and see it in person. (In the US, Target, Costco, Best Buy, and even Toys"R"Us sell some netbook models).
Some manufacturers have discounted prices on used netbooks. Those netbooks are usually in good condition. They have been brought back to the manufacturer for some reasons and have been repaired and tested thoroughly. Most come with complete warranties. Check the netbook manufacturer's internet site to see whether you can easily score any deals. Try Buy.com to see latest offers on refurbished netbooks.

CYBERsitter's Battle Against Chinese Hackers
What happens when you file a lawsuit against a country for copying your software code? In the case of Santa Barbara-based Solid Oak Software--the company behind the CYBERsitter Internet filtering software--apparently, someone from that country mysteriously sends a team of hackers to kneecap your business. In a report published this week, Bloomberg details what it calls a "China Mafia-style Hack Attack" against Solid Oak after the firm sued China over stealing its source code for China's own Internet filtering and firewall efforts.

Trojan Tennis Stocked With Ranked Players To Start 2013-14
Sep 6, 2013
USC's men's and women's tennis teams will open the coming season with a complete lineup of ranked players. The USC men and women are each loaded up with six ranked singles players apiece. The Trojan men have two ranked doubles pairs, and the Women of Troy have their ladder extended out to three ranked pairs in the opening ITA Preseason rankings.
Leading the way for all is top-ranked Sabrina Santamaria on the women's side. Santamaria is all set as the nation's No. 1 singles player as well as half of the No. 1 doubles team in the land with partner Kaitlyn Christian. Together, they pounded out a Triple Crown of 2012-13 doubles play, winning the ITA All-American, ITA National Indoor and NCAA Doubles Championships to make collegiate doubles history.
The Women of Troy have three top-20 singles players, with No. 1 Santamaria joined by No. 17 Zoë Scandalis and No. 19 newcomer Brynn Boren, who joins the Trojans as a senior this season. The USC ladder is completed by No. 56 Gabriella DeSimone, No. 86 Christian and No. 91 Giuliana Olmos -- all returners from USC's 2013 Pac-12 Championship team. In addition to top guns Christian and Santamaria in the doubles game, Boren teams up with fellow newcomer Zoë Katz -- a freshman -- as the No. 19 ranked doubles team. Olmos and Scandalis are paired up at No. 54 in the land. In all, the USC women boast four ITA All-Americans in Brynn Boren, Kaitlyn Christian, Sabrina Santamaria and Zoë Scandalis.
On the men's side, the Trojans are led by No. 8 Ray Sarmiento, who lines up for his senior season at Troy. He is joined in the top-25 by two juniors -- No. 18 Yannick Hanfmann and No. 25 Roberto Quiroz. The ranked ladder of USC talent is filled out by several more Trojans who were members of USC's 2012 NCAA Championship team: No. 58 Eric Johnson, No. 63 Jonny Wang and No. 80 Michael Grant. In the doubles realm, Hanfmann and Johnson combine forces at No. 43 in the nation, and Quiroz and Sarmiento weigh in at No. 40. The Trojans return three ITA All-Americans in Yannick Hanfmann, Roberto Quiroz and Ray Sarmiento.
The 2013-14 season will kick off later this month, with the USC men and women playing in their respective ITA All-American Championships. The Women of Troy will be at the Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades starting Sept. 28. The men will be in Tulsa, Okla., for competition also beginning Sept. 28.

Fervor builds ahead of British royal wedding
By Michael Holden
LONDON (Reuters) - Crowds camped out in London and foreign dignitaries flew in from around the world for Friday's wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton, a service full of pomp and ceremony that has thrust the monarchy to center stage.
Underlying the diplomatic minefield of an event taking place in the full glare of the world's media, Britain withdrew Syria's invitation, saying Syria's crackdown on calls for democracy made it inappropriate that its ambassador should attend.
Middleton, 29, accompanied by William's younger brother and best man Prince Harry, attended a rehearsal on Thursday at the wedding venue, Westminster Abbey, the coronation church for the monarchy since William the Conqueror in 1066.
In the evening, Prince William reached into the crowds waiting on the Mall, the ceremonial avenue running from Buckingham Palace, shaking hands and telling delighted members of the public he was focusing on "remembering the lines" for the "big day," a live BBC broadcast showed.
In a message of thanks to well-wishers worldwide, the couple said they were deeply touched by the outpouring of affection ahead of a wedding service that will combine ancient traditions of the monarchy with a sense of modernity to reflect the times.
In the service, Middleton will not promise to "obey" William as part of her wedding vows in front of a congregation gathering royals, politicians, celebrities and friends.
"We are both so delighted that you are able to join us in celebrating what we hope will be one of the happiest days of our lives," William, second in line to the throne, and Kate wrote in a statement printed in an official souvenir program.

UMKC has long been at the heart of nurturing culture in Kansas City through its renowned programs in music and dance, theater and visual arts. But now it's considering a bold move that could take the university literally into the heart of our great city—by building a new Downtown Campus for the Arts in Kansas City. Why now?
Downtown Kansas City is undergoing an arts renaissance. For evidence, look no farther than the gleaming Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts or the Todd Bolender Center for Dance. Both have helped transform our local arts landscape, energized arts patrons and catapulted our city to national attention.
Local leaders saw the potential when they named a downtown arts campus to the Greater Kansas City Area Chamber of Commerce list of the "Big Five Ideas." A campus close to the emerging cultural district could be mutually beneficial for UMKC and the entire region. Downtown Kansas City would gain added vibrancy with a constant population of 18- to 35-year-olds ready to learn, live and perform there, while UMKC's heralded arts programs would gain great opportunities to offer much-needed improvements to its facilities.

If you are a cat person, I'm sure you can relate to this statement: I've never met a feline I didn't love. I'm that person at a party you'll find crawling on the floor making soft clicking noises, with an outstretched arm, moving toward a 'just out of reach domestic cat', hoping to make their acquaintance. Is that you too?
My love for cats includes the domestic kitties, large African lions, and everything in between. The sleek cheetah, and evasive leopards, the fearless mountain lions, and royal tiger – I love them all.
On one particular safari in the Serengeti I had my first, second and third sightings of Serval cats, all on one day – my Birth Day.
I took it as an omen of good luck.
On another safari in the Maasai Mara I saw my first, and to date only, African wildcat. It was hiding under a bush, and I was struck by it's uncanny resemblance to my feline pet waiting for me back home in the States.
There are many cat species I will never see in my lifetime, but I'm fascinated nonetheless.
My pet cat died a few months ago. She had been the 7th domestic cat I had the pleasure of sharing part of my life with. Her eyes were bamboo green and her purr was louder than a mountain lion's. (I have heard captive mountain lions purr on two different occasions).
At the veterinary office the day she died, holding her sedated body, her paws and chin resting on my shoulders, I danced her around the room – the way we always danced – whispering memories shared during our 15 years together. "Remember how I found you tucked under an eave during a California rainstorm – you were only 8 weeks old? Remember when you got stuck on the roof of our big house? Remember when we got Zia, our first dog? Remember when you saw your first fox outside the window of our log cabin?"
And then I made her a promise. "I will never replace you, my precious purr box", I said as her soul left her soft-furred body and piercing emerald eyes, to soar with the Eagles.
At that moment I never wanted another cat. It would be a betrayal to her. Besides, I would forever (unfairly) compare any new cat to her. But there is a bigger, more important reason why I will never again have a pet cat. It's because, no matter how much I love feline companions, I know that having a domesticated kitty goes against everything I believe in and stand for.
As a research experiment, a man in England handed out plastic bags to every household within a mile radius asking all cat owners to collect the animals their cat killed during the following week. What he found was astonishing. Birds, lizards, snakes, mice, moles, bunnies, butterflies, moths, squirrels, baby skunks, raccoons and chipmunks are only a few of the victims of the predatory domestic cat. The domestic cat is a highly skilled predator, capable, as in the case of the tiny penguins on Australia's Kangaroo Island, of wiping out a species.
The 2013 figures for the 'Leading Causes of Non-habitat-based Bird Mortality in the United States' were recently released by the American Bird Conservancy. And guess what the #1 cause of non-habitat-based bird loss is? The domestic cat.
The estimated figure for birds killed by cats (pets and feral combined) last year in the US alone is 2,400,000,0000.
Yes, almost 2 ½ billion.
And the estimate for small mammals killed by cats in the U.S. last year is 12 billion.
Considering the number of cats in the United States has tripled over the past 40 years, and that there are now 188 million of them, cats are having a devastating effect on small wildlife.
Like any non-native, invasive species, the domestic cat has the capacity to overwhelm and alter the natural functioning of ecosystems.
Which made me wonder, when I spend most of my waking hours working to protect wild animals, how did I allow myself to harbor such efficient wildlife killers?
The answer: I never saw my cats kill anything but two mice.
But now I know I've been in denial about my pet predators because as the researcher in England pointed out, the animals collected in the plastic bags for his experiment represented only a small minority of the victims. In other words, cats don't always bring their prey home to their humans for show and tell.
Cats, wild and domesticated, are predators, with an instinct to chase and hunt. Period.
The expert's solution to the devastation of wildlife caused by our pet kitty cats? Kill (or at least neuter) all feral cats (this is a complicated subject deserving its own separate post), and confine all pet cats indoors.
I don't know about you, but owning a cat who will never touch the earth, climb a tree, or roll in dirt, would be torture for me, as well as (I believe) the cat.
I understand the expert's point – to deny the cat their innate predatory calling – but to me, it's akin to putting a cheetah in an enclosure, depriving the fastest land animal in the world their ability to run. Or a tiger in a circus. I couldn't do it.
And that is why I plan to keep the promise I made to my sweet cat.
Instead of having another one, I will get my feline fix from photos, films, and any cats that honor me with their presence in the wild.

Towards a TENCompetence ePortfolio
This article argues that the TENCompetence ePortfolio definition should integrate rhetorical, pedagogical, social, and technical perspectives. The rhetorical perspective is needed to show the learner?s competences, achievements and history; the pedagogical perspective aims at supporting learner?s self-reflection, through the definition of competences mastered, review and creation of (new) competence development plans, and assessment of competences; the social perspective aims at fostering interaction and social help support; and the technical perspective aims at supporting the other three perspectives. Guiding principles for the design of the TENCompetence ePortfolio are provided, and the aforementioned perspectives detailed.

About Me
*not actively shooting at this time*
Hello there, and welcome to my port.
I have some experience, but you can always learn more and get better. I'm very easy going and can take directions well, but also am comfortable coming up with ideas of my own.
I have a wide range of clothes in my wardrobe. Too many bikini's and too many heels. I also have a range of clothes available to me from contacts and can also purchase items if an idea appeals to me.
At this time I am not interested in pursing nude photography. Please do not contact me for it, my answer will be NO.
Some implied nude, maybe, if I like the project idea.
I work almost 40 hours a week so if you would like to talk about setting up a shoot, it can't be a "next day" shoot. Please plan in advance for me .
If you are interested please feel free to contact me I love to chit chat and will be able to get back to you within 24 hours.

Fox's Carl Cameron Falsely Claims Democrats Have Not Proposed Spending Cuts
Fox News' Carl Cameron falsely claimed that Democrats are pushing for revenue increases without spending cuts in a report on the debt ceiling negotiations. In fact, President Obama and Democrats have offered billions in cuts to social insurance programs.
In a segment on ongoing negotiations to raise the debt ceiling and avoid automatic, across-the-board spending cuts, Cameron described the proposals by claiming, "Republicans want spending cuts and no more tax hikes, and Democrats want pretty much the opposite." From the January 31 edition of Special Report with Bret Baier:
In fact, Obama offered spending cuts throughout the fiscal cliff negotiations and has already cut spending. Obama offered [1] over $400 billion in spending cuts to social insurance programs in addition to the $1.5 trillion in spending cuts included in the 2011 Budget Control Act. They also found [2] that the spending in the act will decrease discretionary spending to "its lowest level" as a share of GDP "going back to 1962."

' When I did the UTME Exam, I believed that I had done well. There are exams you write and you are certain of your performance. I went as far as taking my scripts home and cross checking with textbooks and other sources (also online). I knew for a fact that there was no way I could score below 300/400.
But then Low and behold, I got a message when I was trying to check the result, that my result was cancelled because I must have cheated in the exam. I was Devastated and I felt so sad and I just thought - Okay, What do I do? I had to complain. I had to get people to just plead my case, visit the office and get feed back on what was the next step to take to rectify the situation.
It was stretching on and on & I didn't really fancy that long winding process. So I tried to figure out what the next option was. Some people just felt I should do ahead and take the diploma/foundation programme and I did that. But it was difficult because I am not from a rich home. '

N.Y. detective shot, killed by estranged husband
The Associated Press
Griselda Espinal, 38, worked for 18 years as a narcotics detective.
It was unclear how she died, but she may have been stabbed before being shot, said Deputy Police Chief Rick Hovey. Her body was found inside her home.
The first officer on the scene found her husband, Francisco Espinal, 37, a truck driver, outside waving a gun before he put it in his mouth and pulled the trigger, killing himself, Hovey said.
Neighbors in the quiet neighborhood 83 miles south of Albany reported hearing gunshots and seeing the couple's three children, ages 4 to 11, run from the house.
A neighbor took the children in, but they ran outside when Francisco Espinal shot himself, witnesses said.
Neighbors said Francisco Espinal had not lived at the home for several years.
The children were placed in protective custody.

Nuclear power is an established part of the world's energy mix. The strategic role of nuclear power has come into focus as governments move to decarbonise their electricity generation while also responding to rising demand and concerns about energy security. Nuclear power provides a source of large-scale, baseload supply but its place in countries' clean energy strategies varies in the light of government responses to heightened safety fears following the 2011 Japan earthquake.
Nuclear power provides a clean energy opportunity but it also brings immense challenges. Safety, finances, very long timescales, skills shortages and considerable public and political scrutiny all add to the complexity of developing nuclear power projects.
The 2011 Fukushima emergency in Japan intensified these challenges but its aftermath has also seen a reaffirmation of many countries' commitments to the expansion of nuclear power. Different countries have reacted in different ways that reflect their own circumstances. However, the continued importance of nuclear power in the world's overall energy mix is not in doubt.
PwC works with companies, governments and industry stakeholders in every region of the world to assist with the decisions, planning and implementation of nuclear power projects.

This dissertation is the story of the destruction of Indian families as told to Congress in hearings held by the Sub-Committee on Indian Affairs in 1974 and the Select Committee on Indian Affairs in 1977 through the testimony of children, parents, Indian leadership, the Association on American Indian Affairs, psychological witnesses, and other advocates who opposed destructive child welfare practices. Their testimony described the illegal removal of Indian children, the exploitation of families through violation of their due process rights, the tragedy of children who were abused and neglected in placement, the psychological damage suffered by the children and their families, and the failure and neglect of the Bureau of Indian Affairs to protect the rights of Indian people as required by law. The litany of longstanding abusive practices revealed that one out of every four Indian children had been removed from her or his parents or extended family members in whose care they had been left, and that eighty-five percent of these children had been placed in non-Indian homes and institutions. Their testimony would convince Congress of the need to regulate the actions of state courts and public and private child welfare agencies to prevent the breakup of the Indian family. The testimony further revealed the federal government's continuing use of federal boarding schools as a primary resourc3e for the placement of Indian children taken from families experiencing difficulties and its failure to provide services to these families, and for those children for whom local schools, near to their family, were not available. The federal boarding school system was established in the late 1800s to assimilate the Native people into mainstream society and to destroy tribal life. The Committees also heard from federal government witnesses who refused to accept their responsibility, and who strongly opposed enactment of laws to protect the integrity of Indian family life, despite clear evidence of the government's complicity in its destruction. Other witness who joined the government's opposition included representatives of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints who feared that a law to protect Indian families would interfere with its Student Placement Program in which over twenty-five hundred children were taken every school year into Mormon foster homes for education purposes. The information provided to Congress formed the foundation for the passage of the Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978.

Their lyrical emphasis on themes of romance, depression, and death resulted in the nickname "The Drab Four" (in homage to The Beatles' "Fab Four" moniker). The band went Platinum with 1993's Bloody Kisses, and Gold with 1996's October Rust, and gained a fanbase through seven studio albums, two best-of compilations, and concert DVDs.
