The Fifth Option: Is This how Governments Will Fix Their Debt Problems?
by Gail Tverberg OilPrice.com We have all read about the standard "fixes" for a governmental debt problem – (1) inflate your way out of the problem, (2) cut programs and/or raise taxes, and (3) restructure debt, perhaps delaying repayment and giving bondholders a "haircut" on promised payouts. A fourth one seems to circulate through... »

The purpose of this meditation is to improve our meditation technique in search of the most perfect concentration of all – tranquil abiding.
I began the meditation by paying particular attention to my mind. Whenever I lost my object I returned my attention to bodhichitta, my object of tranquil abiding.
It seemed to me that one moment I was focused clearly on the object, and then almost the next moment I was wandering in distracting thoughts. I tried to trace how my thoughts had got to where they were, from the object of meditation.
I thought that my distraction is rather like falling off a peak of conentration into superficially interesting thoughts. It was like when I had my object, I was sitting on top of a beautiful snow covered peak, surrounded by clear, empty blue sky, with the object clearly in front of me.
Then all of a sudden I would have fallen far, far below, wandering through valleys of distraction moving further away from the peak.
Once I noticed my mind was wandering, I brought it back up to the peak and there, waiting for me, was the object.
But then, fairly soon, my mind was wandering again in the valleys of distraction.
I found it infuriating that it was difficult to spot when my mind became distracted from the object. It was like when I fall asleep. When I fall asleep, I don't notice when I actually enter the sleeping state – I just go blank and the next thing I know I am dreaming.
I realised there is real danger in this blank period, and that I need to keep checking my concentration with alertness, and not just get lost in the object.
I returned my mind once more to Bodhichitta, and imagined I was at the peak of my snow mountain, renewing my determination to remain on my object, and renewing my determination to become a Buddha for the benefit of all.
May all living beings develop perfect concentration, and become enlightened for the benefit of all.
Practice in the Meditation Break
Whatever I do – I must watch out for mind wandering, and return my mind to the task at hand whenever I notice it happening.
I will be doing things differently from the beginning of the next round of meditations!
Stay tuned for more details.

I found the following history of the Ray Greene "Nipper." My first sailboat ride was on a Ray Greene Rebel, almost a half-century ago. The Rebel was purportedly the very first fiberglass reinforced plastic sailboat, the first of which was built in 1948. You might have to paste the following address into your browser.

Re: Jay Greene Nipper
Glad to hear some one else is working on a Nipper. Just had a friend that gave me one that had been sitting in a field for a number of years along with a trailer. All kinds of things growing out of the hull..Starting to work on her and have found that all of the foam under the floor is completely soaked and will have to cut the floor out and remove the soaked foam. It weighs a ton. Just had a new alum. center board made. The sails and hardware are in good shape so looking forward to the task. Just finished an old Phantom and it sails great. Please let me know a little about your project and do you have to worry about the soaked foam? If you have any pictures it would be great to see them...Thanks Bill

I was lucky enough to pick up this 12 footer and now I'm trying to get some information. The previous owner said it was the model boat used at his Summer Camp in Maryland. It's 98% there, just some minor repairs, mostly cosmetic. All my on line searching has turned up very little about these boats, any help would be appreciated.

The services and resources in The Iona Abbey Worship Book reflect the Iona Community's commitment to the belief that worship is all that we are and all that we do, both inside and outside the church, with no division into the sacred and the secular.
Previous incarnations of this book have been used extensively throughout Britain and abroad by lay leaders, bishops, clergy trainers, youth groups, house groups, womens groups, prisoners groups, worship groups in fact absolutely anyone exploring transforming, creative and participative worship.
For centuries pilgrims have travelled to the isle of Iona in search of the sacred, inspired by the example of St Columba, a 6th-century Irish monk who founded a monastery there, and whose influence is felt to the present day.

Dazzling Darkness is a true story about searching for ones authentic self in the company of the Living God. Rachel Mann has died many deaths in the process, not the least of which was a change of sex, as well as coming to terms with chronic illness and disability.
Through these experiences she has discovered that darkness is as much a positive place as a negative one, inhabited by the Living God the Dark God, the Hidden God. This is the God that many of us, because we try to make our lives safe and comfortable, are too afraid to meet. This is the God who is most alive in those things we commonly associate with the Dark failure, loss and brokenness.
The Christian church has legitimated certain ways of talking about God male, fatherly, monarchical and so on. Many believe these descriptors tell the exhaustive truth about God. In accepting the complexity of her sexuality and identity, Rachel Mann has been able to explore with a greater freedom what God might look like to an unconventional creature like her.
This passionate and nuanced book brings together poetry, feminist theology, and philosophy, and explores them through one persons hunger for wholeness, self-knowledge and God.
Rachel Mann is an Anglican parish priest and writer. She is Resident Poet at Manchester Cathedral and her work has been widely published in magazines, anthologies and newsprint. Go here for a blog post by Rachel.

New to the group/ Need help with loosing preancy weight r/o
I wanted to say hello that im new to the group. I just had a baby about 3month's ago.I gained quite abit of weight and I hate it. Im ready to loose it. I've tried in the past but even time i get started i get off the bandwagon. Now Im ready to get back on and get my a$$ in gear. I wanted to know what exercises can i do o loose the baby fat from my stomach. Also here is alittle bit about me. I eat seafood, fish, beans,eggs and lot's of veggies. I dont eat meat or chicken. Im trying to become vegetarian but im not quite there yet. Also I drink lot's of water but I guess
that dosent help when I drink soda. Also I cant stop eating candy(s0rry but i have a sweet tooth. So i decided to keep track of what i eat starting today. So far it hasent been good
WholeWheat Begal/Cream cheese

Oh my current weight is
115-Lowest weight
58lbs to loose
Goal weight 115
How tall are you? Is 115 a good weight for you?
I had a baby 8 months ago. I gained over 70 pounds during my pregnancy :shock: . I just forced myself on the treadmill as often as I could afterward. I've lost about 68 pounds of it (pretty much by month 4). The last 3-5 pounds are kicking my butt. (Yes, i still eat junk food, just try to limit it.) The weight comes off for sure. But your figure may never be the same. Mine isn't... :cry: It's not awful or anything, but it's just different. But some people spring right back to exactly what they were. Good luck. Most of my weight is gone, but I still need to tone, ALOT. So maybe we can motivate each other! :)
I am 5'1 so Im totally over weight.
That would be good to have a weight loss buddy.
Heres my email if you want to talk someimes

Corporate profit and impression management in developing markets

Accepted Version
(PDF 43kB)

Administrators only | Request a copy from author
In this study, we examine how organisations in Fiji communicate or legitimise their profit. We base the need for understanding this phenomenon on the following premise. Organisations are part of a wider society, and in competition for scarce resources. Organisations obtain the rights to consume resources upon conception, but must continually legitimise their rights of existence and the need to access the resources. Legitimacy is the ability to continue to justify one's authority to exist in a society. Organisations rights to resources are contractual, and have a moral obligation to act in a responsible manner and justify their outcomes, actions, and activities to external stakeholders. Such justifications would be an attempt at legitimizing their existence by some form of impression management. Impression management refers to the process by which individuals attempt to influence the impression of others (Melo et al. 2009). In corporate reporting, impression management occurs when management selects, display, and presents that information in a manner that distorts readers' perceptions of corporate achievements (Neu 1991; Patten 2002), and is managed best through disclosures (O'Donovan 2002).
In developing economies, there is significant Government protection that creates near-monopoly sectors and industries. The rendered protection permits organisations to provide essential services to the community at reasonable costs. Organisations in these sectors and industries have an ominous need to legitimise their position and actions. The bond between the organisations and the society is much stronger, making organisations devote more effort in communicating their activities. Protection permits organisations to make reasonable profits to sustain their operations. Society may not accept abnormal profits from operational efficiencies. Profit is fundamental to the society's perception of an organisation, amplifying the need for the firm to justify a level of profit. Abnormal profit for organisations construes bad news, and organisations would make relevant disclosures to manage stakeholder impressions on profit (Patten 2002).
Organisations can manage impressions by disclosing information in a particular way. That is, organisations would want to put the impression that the abnormal profit is justified and the society will obtain its benefits in future. Such form of impression management requires unambiguous disclosure of information. The readability of corporate disclosures is an important indicator of organisational abnormal profit-related legitimacy efforts in developing economies.

With a horde of bank accounts available to choose from today, it may be confusing for a lot of people to choose one that's more suited to their day-to-day banking needs. Deposit accounts that allow for activities like payment by way of cheques, wiring money from abroad, buying goods by use of a debit card, among a myriad other uses are called current accounts in the UK.
A current account is tailored for day-to-day use and allows two or more people to set one up, which is then called a joint current account. This particular arrangement allows each party to own their own card and cheque book.
Types of Current Accounts
All banks and most of the building societies in the UK have an array of current accounts to choose from, and these are tailored to meet specific needs or preferences. Before you go about choosing one, however, you should have a clear understanding of what you want the account for which will subsequently determine how you will use it.
Listed below are examples of current accounts to aid in your decision making.
- Standard Current Accounts-these accounts allow for products and services such as cash and debit cards, cheque books, monthly/quarterly bank statements, overdraft facilities, telephone banking facilities as well as internet banking access.
- Simple Cash Accounts-these ones have no provision for cheque books, overdraft or internet facilities.
- Accounts with Extras-the extras in question include road side assistance, travel insurance and more, which of course a small monthly fee is included with a larger monthly fee covering medical support.
- Accounts for High Earners-just as the name suggests, these ones are tailored on a personal level with the bank offering high level personal support.
- Foreign Currency Accounts-these cater for those who frequently deal in foreign currency other than the sterling.
- Euro Accounts-similar to the Foreign Currency Account but with regard to the Euro in this case.
- Children's' Accounts-normally mixed with the savings account.
- Young Peoples' Accounts.
- Student accounts-overdrafts are not charged interest in most cases and account holder may receive cash incentives or other free gifts for joining.
- Graduate Accounts-overdrafts as well as mortgages and loans have a good interest rate.
- Special Accounts-these include those accounts that cater for certain religious beliefs to avoid offending their religious practices.
Choosing a Current Account
Almost anyone can open a current account with particular attention being paid to one's credit history. Those with a bad score may have limited options available to them. As noted earlier, most banks, in addition to building societies and Internet banks, offer this type of account.
Remember, consider carefully what you need from your account before opening one up.

Status of the Golden-winged Warbler in North Georgia, and a Nesting Record of the Lawrence's Warbler
Nathan A. Klaus
Golden-winged Warblers (Vermivora chrysoptera) were considered fairly common summer residents in North Georgia when Burleigh wrote Georgia Birds in the 1950s. There are numerous records for Golden-winged Warblers during this time, and they were found in at least five counties: Fannin, Dawson, Union, Towns, Dade, and possibly, a sixth, Whitfield (Burleigh 1958). There is also substantial evidence that Golden-winged Warblers were common in the Southern Appalachians, including North Georgia, during the 1800s if not earlier. One of the earliest ornithological explorations of the Southern Appalachians (Brewster 1886) found Golden-winged Warblers to be quite common, especially in open oak savannah and second growth on hillsides (implying then that they were found in both logged and unlogged areas). It is interesting to note that nothing resembling open oak savannah remains in the Southern Appalachians, probably due to fire suppression and historic logging. This may explain the apparent dependence of Golden-winged Warblers upon artificial habitats such as clearcuts that are found today (Klaus 2001). In addition to William Brewsters and Burleigh's well-documented records, a nest was found in Georgia in 1859 by Alexander Gerhardt (Burleigh 1958).
In recent decades populations appear to have declined dramatically. Nowhere in the Southern Appalachians can Golden-winged Warblers be considered common, probably due to changes in habitat availability. Besides the elimination of open oak savannahs frequented by Golden-winged Warblers in Brewsters time, changes in land use have further reduced available habitat. Clearcutting, which provides valuable habitat for this species (Klaus 2001), is a management tool rarely used today by the major landowner in the area, the U.S. Forest Service (USFS). The USFS owns nearly half of some counties within the historic Georgia range of Golden-winged Warblers (i.e. Union County, 45% USFS). Furthermore lands at suitable elevation for Golden-winged Warblers (generally greater than 2,800 ft) throughout the Southern Appalachians are nearly all owned and managed by the USFS. The reduction of early succession habitat on USFS lands is a likely a major cause of the decline of this species of warbler. Private land in North Georgia, which once consisted of subsistence farms and which provided habitat in the form of old fields and woodlots, is today, composed of primary and secondary homes, usually with either mature forest or residential lawns. Combined, these changes in land use on public and private land are probably responsible for the widespread elimination of Golden-winged Warblers from North Georgia. This includes numerous areas noted by Burleigh and others for their Golden-winged Warbler populations, which are no longer occupied, including: Blood Mountain, Young Harris, Lake Winfield Scott, and Ivy Log. Very little new habitat has been created in the last decade, leading to serious concerns for this species viability in North Georgia and throughout the Southern Appalachians.
Six sites were found occupied (Figure 1), five within 10 miles of one another. Three of the five sites were on private land in old field habitat (the Johnny Gap sites); one was in an area damaged by hurricane Opal and later salvage-logged (Brawley Mtn.), and one was at the site of an intense fire (Chestnut Mtn.). Sixteen Golden-winged Warblers (not including hybrids) were seen over four years (Table 1). Very little early succession habitat was encountered at locations of suitable elevations.
Though no nests were found, evidence of reproduction was observed at two sites. On May 7, 1999 at the Johnny Gap 1 site, the female of the pair was seen carrying nesting material. A thorough search revealed no nest and it was assumed that nest building was in its earliest stages. Unfortunately, the site was not revisited later that season and was taken over by Blue-winged Warblers (Vermivora pinus) the following year. On June 4, 2002 at the Brawley Mtn. site, two indications of reproduction were witnessed. The first involved a female Lawrences Warbler, which responded to the Type II Golden-winged Warbler playback. She approached within 20 feet carrying what appeared to be a Lepidopteron larvae and flew off within a few minutes. She was later seen two other times making trips (assumed to be carrying food) in a similar heading, but no nest or young were located. To our knowledge this is the first record of a Vermivora chrysoptera x Vermivora pinus hybrid nesting in Georgia, though this is not unexpected, since most Golden-winged Warbler populations in Georgia are sympatric with Blue-winged Warblers.
Approximately two hours after the sighting of the female Lawrences Warbler, a male Golden-winged Warbler was seen carrying food. Upon following his line of flight over several trips, five recently fledged (still downy) Golden-winged Warblers were discovered being fed by the male and foraging in a recently logged area. Though the young were observed over the next two hours, no female was seen in their vicinity. It is assumed that the female Lawrences Warbler was not their parent since she was seen in a different location, and carried her food in a different direction. In addition, all five young appeared to be phenotypically pure.
The first priority in managing this species should be to augment remaining populations, although it is unlikely that Georgia's population(s) is viable on its own. It is estimated that 1,000 breeding pairs are necessary for a species dependent upon ephemeral habitat to have a viable population; viability in this case being defined as having a 95% probability of being extant in 100 years (Thomas 1990). Luckily wildlife populations do not recognize political boundaries. North Carolina still maintains a sizeable population of Golden-winged Warblers, especially on the Cheoah and Wayah ranger districts of the Nantahala National Forest. By maintaining connectivity (grouped patches of early succession habitat along high elevations) to the North Carolina Golden-winged Warbler population it is likely that North Georgia populations can continue at least as a meta-population. Besides augmenting existing populations, maintaining this connectivity through the strategic creation of habitat at appropriate elevations should be a management priority. Relatively small patches of apparently suitable habitat, which go unoccupied, are probably the result of lack of viability. Lacking a source population to fill this habitat, these potential sites go unoccupied.
Loss of suitable habitat is extirpating Georgia's Golden-winged Warbler populations and threatens to eliminate them from the southeast. Creating new habitat through a combination of prescribed fire or timber harvests is the only way to keep this species in the Southern Appalachians. Although some may advocate prescribed fire alone to create Golden-winged Warbler habitat, only one site in the Southern Appalachians known to have Golden-winged Warblers was created through fire, Chestnut Mountain. This site was only found occupied in 2002. Using fire of this intensity may not be practical in many areas to create habitat, but it is interesting to note that natural forces, such as fire, are capable of creating habitat for this species of warbler. Unfortunately, these natural forces have been suppressed for nearly a century, even in designated wilderness areas. It is implausible to rely on natural forces to provide early succession habitat while actively suppressing wildfire. Using timber harvests to establish early succession habitat, followed by repeated fires of manageable intensity to maintain it may be a more practical approach. Although the use of fire to maintain high elevation early succession habitat was until recently theoretical, Golden-winged Warblers seemed to respond well to prescribed fire in 2003 on Brawley Mountain.
Georgia's Golden-winged Warbler populations have dramatically declined in recent decades. Populations in adjacent Tennessee and North Carolina face similar threats and are experiencing dramatic declines. Without coordinated active management on the part of the USFS and state wildlife agencies, the long-term viability of the Southern Appalachian population of Golden-winged Warblers is in question. Georgia once supported a sizeable population of Golden-winged Warblers and can again make a significant contribution to the conservation of this species.

How a Race in the Balance Went to Obama
How a Race in the Balance Went to Obama
By ADAM NAGOURNEY, ASHLEY PARKER, JIM RUTENBERG and JEFF ZELENY
Seven minutes into the first presidential debate, the mood turned from tense to grim inside the room at the University of Denver where Obama staff members were following the encounter. Top aides monitoring focus groups — voters who registered their minute-by-minute reactions with the turn of a dial — watched as enthusiasm for Mitt Romney spiked. "We are getting bombed on Twitter," announced Stephanie Cutter, a deputy campaign manager, while tracking the early postings by political analysts and journalists whom the Obama campaign viewed as critical in setting debate perceptions.

G.O.P. Factions Grapple Over Meaning of Loss(November 8, 2012)
Damon Winter/The New York Times
By the time President Obama had waded through a convoluted answer about health care — "He's not mentioning voucher-care?" someone called out — a pall had fallen over the room. When the president closed by declaring, "This was a terrific debate," his re-election team grimaced. There was the obligatory huddle to discuss how to explain his performance to the nation, and then a moment of paralysis: No one wanted to go to the spin room and speak with reporters.
Mr. Romney's advisers monitored the debate up the hall from the Obama team, as well as at campaign headquarters in Boston. Giddy smiles flashed across their faces as their focus groups showed the same results.
"Boy, the president is off tonight," said Stuart Stevens, the senior Romney strategist, sounding mystified, according to aides in the room. Russ Schriefer, a senior adviser, immediately began planning television spots based entirely on clips from the debate. As it drew to a close, Gail Gitcho, Mr. Romney's communications director in Boston, warned surrogates heading out to television studios: "No chest thumping."
The Oct. 3 debate sharply exposed Mr. Obama's vulnerabilities and forced the president and his advisers to work to reclaim the campaign over a grueling 30 days, ending with his triumph on Tuesday. After a summer of growing confidence, Mr. Obama suddenly confronted the possibility of a loss that would diminish his legacy and threaten his signature achievement, the health care law. He emerged newly combative, newly contrite and newly willing to recognize how his disdain for Mr. Romney had blinded him to his opponent's strengths and ability to inflict damage.
After watching a videotape of his debate performance, Mr. Obama began calling panicked donors and supporters to reassure them he would do better. "This is on me," the president said, again and again.
Mr. Obama, who had dismissed warnings about being caught off guard in the debate, told his advisers that he would now accept and deploy the prewritten attack lines that he had sniffed at earlier. "If I give up a couple of points of likability and come across as snarky, so be it," Mr. Obama told his staff.
As his campaign began an all-out assault on Mr. Romney's credibility and conservative views, the president soon was denouncing Mr. Romney's budget proposals as a "sketchy deal" and charging that the Republican nominee was not telling Americans the truth.
Mr. Obama recognized that to a certain extent, he had walked into a trap that Mr. Romney's advisers had anticipated: His antipathy toward Mr. Romney — which advisers described as deeper than what Mr. Obama had felt for John McCain in 2008 — led the incumbent to underestimate his opponent as he began moving to the center before the debate audience of millions of television viewers.
But as concerned as the White House was during the last 30 days of the campaign, its polls never showed Mr. Obama slipping behind Mr. Romney, aides said. The president was helped in no small part by the tremendous amount of money the campaign built up, which had permitted him to pound his Republican rival before he had ever had a chance to fully introduce himself to the nation.
That was just one of several ways that Mr. Obama's campaign operations, some unnoticed by Mr. Romney's aides in Boston, helped save the president's candidacy. In Chicago, the campaign recruited a team of behavioral scientists to build an extraordinarily sophisticated database packed with names of millions of undecided voters and potential supporters. The ever-expanding list let the campaign find and register new voters who fit the demographic pattern of Obama backers and methodically track their views through thousands of telephone calls every night.
That allowed the Obama campaign not only to alter the very nature of the electorate, making it younger and less white, but also to create a portrait of shifting voter allegiances. The power of this operation stunned Mr. Romney's aides on election night, as they saw voters they never even knew existed turn out in places like Osceola County, Fla. "It's one thing to say you are going to do it; it's another thing to actually get out there and do it," said Brian Jones, a senior adviser

The point to be here noted is their complicating effect on the pan-islamic movement.
Most people have heard of the pan-islamic movement, especially during the War.
If, however, it does not, the pan-islamic movement might find a sympathetic soul in India.
The recent organization of the pan-islamic Movement is full of hope.
pan-islamic nationalism is a relatively recent phenomenon and has not been doctrinally worked out.
It seemed to many that there would be a pan-islamic revolt in India.
But the pan-islamic leaders have long been working on a much broader basis.
And what is true of the Senussi holds equally for the other wise leaders who guide the pan-islamic movement.
For example, the pan-islamic press, to which Vambéry refers, has developed in truly extraordinary fashion.
There are of course irreconcilables like Japanese imperialists and pan-islamic fanatics who would like to upset the whole world.

I didn't see a thread started so here goes.
I plan on doing my first Sprint Triathlon this year and I'm going to need advice, pointers, and encouragement from you guys.
This is the one I plan on doing in June:
Distance: 1/4 mile swim , Bike 12 miles and 5K Run
A little background on me:
Last June I was 210lbs, today I weighed 191 after my short bike/run/sauna at the gym. I've always been a "strong" guy, but never much of a cardio guy. I've been working on that. I took up road cycling and can now go on a nice 15+ mile ride with no issues.
I think the things I'm going to need help with are gameplanning on how to put the pieces together, what kind of race day things I should need or expect, etc.
So, that's where I'm at right now. Feel free to add your two cents, etc.

Remember to cut and past the link..
All I did was paint the entire gun black with acrylic paint (I mixed in some brown for the stock...and added some here and there on the body of the gun for variations in the black). After it dried, I used a silver, brown and a little gold paint here and there. Parts like the scope got slighty heavier doses of silver paint, but what I did mostly was paint on some silver, then wiped it down with a dry rag. This left a nice tinting of silver (did the same with the brown and gold...used the gold here and there mostly on the metal connection between the handle and the stock). Some of the obvious places got solid little scrapes of silver...like the tip of the barrel, around the cooling vanes, the adjustment nuts on the scope, and various places here and there that stuck out more from the gun.
After it was all done, I sealed it with a coat of satin finish clearcoat spray paint! Worked like a charm!!!!!

Reviews for Potluck Spareribs
"These are amazing--they taste just like bbq'd ribs without actually grilling them! I did add about 3/4 tsp. liquid smoke to add that true bbq smoky zip! They really are easy and delicious and so tender that they just fall off of the bone and are packed with flavour!"
"We've been making this for decades and absolutely love it. We make it slightly different though; we double the sauce and cook it along with the ribs in a large roaster. Yummy!"
"Excellent!!! Made twice so far exactly as written (with the addition of a sprinkle of cayenne in the sauce) and loved by all. Forgot, I also decreased the sugar to 1/2 c."
"This is an amazing recipe. I have made this 3 times in the last month or so as it is highly requested. fall off the bone delicious!"
"Very good, we've tried cooking the last 45 minutes on the grill or in the oven and both times had amazing results."
"Too sweet for our taste"
"My family loved this recipe. I had never made ribs before, and wanted to do them for our Memorial Day meal. They turned out so tasty and tender and have been asked to make again next weekend by my mother in law, who said she loved it so much, she dreamed about them last night. My husband liked them so much, he went back for seconds. We poured a bit of the sauce over the rice to make it more yummy."
"Did the ribs in my crock pot and they were excellent. The sauce is absolutey delicious. Agree with GregH3000 about skipping the soy sauce and using Bragg's Aminos. Not healthy or wise to use soy sauce. Great recipe."
"Warning: Most modern soy foods are not fermented to neutralize toxins in soybeans, and are processed in a way that denatures proteins and increases levels of carcinogens. So skip the soy sauce and use a safe and healthier substitute like Bragg's Aminos."

I said in this post two weeks ago that by my accounting the Mets should have almost 30M to spend but are acting like a team out of money and most speculate that they have about 10M to spend. Part of my math is my fault in that I drastically underestimated what the arbitration eligible players will receive. As I stated in that post and it's considered normal procedure throughout the league is that the budget will include all of Wright/Bay's salaries despite them taking deferments. What I forgot to account for is Santana/Bay's 2014 buyouts which the club has acknowledged they will count against this years budget. So here is an update of the budget.
Bay- $ 18.1M
Wright- $ 11M
Francisco- $ 6.5M
Buck- $ 6M
Niese- $ 3M
Total 74M
2014 Buyouts
Santana- $5.5
Bay- $3M
Total 8M
Projected Arbitration figures
Murphy- 3M
Davis- 2.8M
Parnell- 1.5M
Total 7.3M
Source of Arby projection this post ESPN NY
That leaves 16 spots to complete the roster if all holes were filled by controllable players and minor league invites then they would cost between 490k to 800k. Taking an average of 650k for 16 players the cost would be 10.4M.
So a more accurate assessment of the budget would look like this:
It's been said that the Mets are willing to allow the budget to increase to 110M but want to hold some monies back in case they want to trade at the deadline. So this is how they end up with the figure being 10M that they can spend. It is a bit of creative accounting to include both next year's buyouts and the total contracts of Bay/Wright but it also means they have essentially no commitments next year aside from Wright, Niese, Murphy, Davis and Parnell. Dillon Gee, Ruben Tejada, Justin Turner and Mike Baxter will become first time arby eligible.

Keep dinner warm and cozy with a hearty bowl of steaming soup that's satisfying enough to be your main dish.
Country Potato-and-Cabbage SoupBacon contributes a smoky flavor to this chunky cabbage-and-potato soup, and the country bread croutons are delicious when they soak up some of the savory broth.
Hearty Minestrone SoupMinestrone is Italian for "big soup" and this recipe meets that requirement since it's a thick soup brimming with white beans and pancetta, tomato, carrot, fennel, carrot and celery.
Black Bean Soup with Crispy TortillasThis ultra-simple soup requires little more than a couple of cans of black beans, some onion and a bit of cumin. A topping of fried tortillas (or store-bought chips) adds crunch.
Cabbage, Kielbasa and Rice SoupGood sausage is an excellent time-saver, because the links are already spiced and seasoned. The slices of Polish kielbasa in this soup add a wonderfully smoky, peppery, garlicky flavor.
Provençal Fish SoupAt Terrôir restaurant at the Craggy Range winery, chef Sara Simpson flavors her lush seafood soup with port, red wine and the usual dash of licorice-scented Pernod.
Colombian Chicken SoupChicken breast adds plenty of protein but not much fat to this version of ajiaco, a cilantro-scented chicken soup that's virtually Colombia's national dish. Stirring in fiber-rich brown rice turns the soup into a satisfying one-dish meal.
Avgolemono Chicken Soup with RiceAvgolemono is a classic sauce of chicken broth, egg yolks and lemon juice; the addition of a bit more chicken broth, rice and shredded chicken turns it into a satisfying soup.
Mushroom Soup with Toasted BreadChef Michel Bras purees this lush mushroom soup with bread toasted to a dark brown to thicken the texture and deepen its flavor.
Chicken Meatball–and–Orzo SoupMelissa Rubel cleverly uses chicken sausage here: removing the casings, shaping the meat into balls, browning them and simmering them in chicken broth. If you have leftover cooked rice on hand, feel free to substitute it for the orzo.
Fish-and-Shellfish ChowderTo deepen the flavor of this lightly creamy, bacon-studded chowder, Chef Wade Murphy at the Lisloughrey Lodge adds the briny cooking liquid from the mussels and clams.
Black-Bean Turkey ChiliThis turkey chili features lean proteins and hearty flavors. It's the perfect comfort food to serve on a chilly evening.
Southwest Seafood ChowderAs a native New Englander, chef Steve Sicinski loves clam chowder but prefers making a healthier version with Southwestern flavors.
Miso Clam Chowder with Parsley OilA small amount of savory white miso paste gives New England–style clam chowder a Japanese accent. Parsley oil adds flavor.
Andouille, Crab and Oyster GumboThis sensational seafood-packed gumbo is terrific in its simplicity, with a foolproof roux (the mix of fat and flour that is the basis for all gumbos) that requires just 15 minutes of stirring instead of the usual hour.

John Pemble writes:
Kuper detects the hard-headed strategies of agglomeration and consolidation common to all the bourgeoisies of 19th-century Europe. He argues that the British ruling class favoured intermarriage because it had learned the value of family partnerships from its business experience in the days before limited liability and widespread share ownership. The ruling-class regime undoubtedly stacked the odds against exogamy. Its agenda was the right man in the right place – and the woman in the home. Consequently the public sphere of education, work and organised recreation was a man's world, where premarital (like extramarital) encounters with the opposite sex were limited to prostitutes and barmaids. The domestic sphere, meanwhile, was sacred to the women. For the adolescent male, confined for most of the year to public school or university, home meant bevies of sisters, cousins and aunts, and furtive fantasy about slippers, stockings, camisoles and stays. Since it wasn't unusual to have 20 or more cousins of the opposite sex, they came readily to mind when the time came for marriage.

Bach To The Future
Echoing the around-the-clock programming on WQXR's Bach 360 Festival, this week on Hammered! we allow the great Baroque master Johann Sebastian Bach guide the musical conversation.
Conductor, pianist and one-liner machine Hans von Bulow called Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier the "Old Testament" of piano music (Beethoven's piano sonatas the "New"). No doubt Bach's music represents one of the most powerful and influential collections in music history, his influence rippling through centuries.
Not only will we survey a number of Bach's masterpieces for keyboard -- connecting to the final days of last week's program devoted to the harpsichord -- but, like lines of devoted spiritualists waiting to pay respects to the Dalai Lama, we'll hear music by more contemporary composers who in one way or another are indebted to Bach's genius.
Tune in for Concertos, Partitas, Preludes and Fugues, and more, alongside music by Kevin Puts, Dimitri Shostakovich, Heinz Holliger, Sam Barber, Elliott Carter, and even Bach-aficionado, Glenn Gould.
Hopefully you don't feel the way MidwesternR did about WQXR's Bach 360: "This was okay for awhile, but WQXR needs to Bach off a bit. Put Jo out in the Bach yard now and give him and us a break. Ten straight days of a musical suppository up the Bachside has only plugged up your programming, with no immediate relief in prospect."

GSD and kids
Annie is our GSD, and she is 7 months old. First, let me start by saying she is incredibly smart and a fantastic dog at home. She loves my kids and our cat and will play with them all day. She knows all her basic commands and is obedient at home all day long. However, when we go out in public, or to the parks, it is like she looses everything she knows. She kind of goes "stupid".
Every since she was 3 months old she would growl at any of my kids' friends that came over. The kids would be running by or dancing around and Annie would growl and lunge. As long as the kids' friends were sitting and still, Annie was ok with them being in our home. At 6 months old we realized we couldn't risk the liability of Annie nipping or actually biting a child, we sent her to obiedience school, in hopes of Annie working with strangers would help her realize not all other people are bad. After 5 weeks at training, we went to pick her up where she excelled in her training. The trainer said she is super high energy and really needs a job. (we have been told this multiple times) We spent several hours learning what we needed to learn in order to continue her success at home.
We got home from picking Annie up on Thursday, and took her to the park on Saturday. As I sat at the table with her to watch my kids play, I was horrified and totally embarrassed at how Annie acted. She aggressively barked AND lunged at kids running by, no matter how many times I offered treats. I tried moving further away from the kids playing and Annie whined and then aggressively barked at all the kids. I know some of the other mothers were getting a little nervous, which is why we eventually left. As long as people are sitting still and not running or jumping, Annie is fine.
Has anyone ever had this problem? I honestly don't think Annie would actually bite? But, I would NEVER want to find out I am wrong. I really want to find a way to correct this behavior, in order to keep my Annie girl.
Any and all opinions and suggestions are welcome.
Thanks so much in advance,

Three positions in the Anderson County Zoning and Public Works Department [TN] have been eliminated, a restructuring expected to save more than $102,000 annually, Anderson County Mayor Terry Frank announced Monday.
The position of planner has been phased out, she said. That work will be done through a contract with East Tennessee Development District.
Also dropped will be the GIS (Geographic Information Systems) coordinator's job. Those mapping services will be provided through a cooperative agreement between the offices of mayor and property assessor. The county's property assessor already has an "accomplished GIS coordinator," Frank said.
I wonder if the coordinator title is in fact more that a GIS tech. I could see zoning and public works having a coordinator, who is perhaps the GIS coordinator for the couty, but wonder if an assessor would really have someone at that level.
The only thing weid about the Cobb County, GA parcel and zoing apps for iOS and Android are that there's a QR code to access them on the webpage. Maybe I have it wrong, but I thought the point fo a QR code was to have it in the real world (on a product package or a movie poster) to access more info on a mobile device. The idea of a scanning a QR code on a computer screen with a phone seems a curious use. The apps use ArcGIS Online + Silverlight.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel has a new online map (Leaflet, Mapbox, OSM) that shows private land avialble ot the public for hiking, fishing and hunting in return for owners getting a tax break. To date no such map has been available and the land owners participating have pretty much not had to make the land available. An invstigation by a Pulitzer prize winner helped gather the data and now outdoorspeople have land owner contact information and can if all goes well use the land!
The Franklin County GIS Consortium [Alabama] was honored during Monday's Franklin County Commission meeting for developing a website and implementing a GIS program that links as many as 14 county agencies together.
It seems the consortium was honored because it was honored by Esri with a SAG award. In particular, the system aided in response to the April 27, 2011, tornado. Someone from Esri addressed the team at the meeting. I wonder if it would have been more valuable/educational for county leaders to do actual research to understand what the GIS is and how it works and address the team and other county officials.
