Citizens Association Honors Town's Best; Elects New President
The best of Georgetown was on display May 29 at Dumbarton House during the annual awards meeting and officers' election of the Citizens Association of Georgetown. Its new president is Pamla Moore.
After departing president Jennifer Altemus welcomed the crowd, councilmember Jack Evans of Ward 2, who lives with his wife Michele and their children on P Street, presented Altemus with a proclamation from Mayor Vincent Gray, designating "May 29, 2013, as Jennifer Altemus Day."
Evans, for his part, reminded the group that May 29 was the birthday of President John Kennedy, who lived in Georgetown in many houses through his years of public service in D.C. The presumptive mayoral candidate also launched into his "Georgetown's Golden Age" stump speech which lauds the achievements of the neighborhood since the late 1990s and likewise touts the dynamism of D.C. as one of America's leading cities, a true "boomtown," cited by recent media reports.
Then, it was time for the awards during the briskly paced meeting.
The Captain Peter Belin Award was presented to Karen "Cookie" Cruse "for her expert and dedicated work in preserving the historic character of Georgetown." Cruse said the prestigious award was "frosting on the cake" in her gratitude of the town.
The William A. Cochran Award was presented to Leslie Buhler, executive director of Tudor Place, for "exceptional efforts to protect and enhance the community's parkland and architectural resources." While living elsewhere, Buhler said she "loved Georgetown" best.
The Charles Atherton Award was presented to Dana Nerenberg, principal of Hyde Elementary School, for "exceptional service by a dedicated public-sector professional for outstanding work preserving and protecting historic Georgetown." Nerenberg said that she had "the best job ever."
The Martin-Davidson Award to the business persons who have contributed significantly to the community was presented to Clyde's Restaurant Group's Ginger and John Laytham. Noting Clyde's longtime involvement in the community and its 50th anniversary in June, John Laytham said, "I hope Clyde's is around for another 50 years." Ginger Laytham also noted Clyde's community efforts and thanked CAG for its leadership.
A special appreciation award was presented to Ray Danieli, now retired from Georgetown University, for his dedicated and distinguished service to the Georgetown community. Danieli said, "The city and the university now have a great relationship."
Election of CAG officers and four directors also took place at the meeting. Here is the new line-up: Pamla Moore, president; Bob vom Eigen, vice president; Barbara Downs, secretary; Bob Laycock, treasurer; and directors: Diane Colasanto, Karen Cruse, Hazel Denton and Luca Pivato. Jennifer Altemus will remain on the board as immediate past president.
Upon her election as CAG president, Moore recalled that when asked to run she thought about it and then told the audience: "The reason I said yes was you."

Last Child in the Woods : Saving Our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder (original 2005; edition 2005)
by Richard Louv
Work details
Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children From Nature-Deficit Disorder by Richard Louv (2005)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Now, any book that insists kids should be spending more time playing outside than in front of a screen is, in my case, preaching to the choir. I don't need to be convinced. I need data and ideas and backup.
Louv makes many interesting observations and provides some references to research that supports his claims, but not much in the way of in depth examinations of those studies. (I am a skeptic even when presented with data that backs up my beliefs.) I would have liked to see more of that, but appreciate that the conversational tone was probably better suited for intended audience- ie, those who are trying to figure out how to get their kids outdoors and connected to the real world around them. He does provide a number of interesting ideas and examples, including ways to involve schools and communities.
I found the chapters on HOA restrictions and legal complications of outside play especially informative. Louv addresses the pervasive but illogical "stranger-danger" paranoia that keeps many kids from exploring their own backyards, let alone the neighborhood, and suggests that more community involvement is the best way to combat these particular issues.
This book really delves into how much childhood has changed just in the past generation, let alone what it was like even 50 years ago. Today's kids spend most of their time indoors watching, TV, playing video games, on the internet and interacting with friends on a phone. What little time they do spend outdoors is usually in organized activities and sports. It's a great reminder of what makes being outdoors so great and how healthy and natural it is.
I'd heard of this book for years, and read/skimmed through it last week. It's OK, but most of it could have been covered in a substantial magazine article.
Louv discusses "nature deficit disorder" wherein our society has moved away from letting children just play and be outside. natural play has been criminalized through fear of being sued for a child breaking their arm by falling from a tree in your yard or on the school playground and fear of "strangers." the distance kids are allowed to roam from their home has decreased dramatically in the last 20-30 years and hearkens to the free range child movement.
most kids no longer know what it means to just lie in a meadow and watch the clouds and listen to the wind. Louv recounts quite a few anecdotes from other people as well as his own about the value and joy of playing outside when they were young.
the concepts there were not new to me and the lack of numbered notation for references and index placed this book firmly in the land of journalism rather than scholarship. nevertheless, it makes its point well and is very much worth the read if you are interested in learning more about the diverging of humans and their natural environment and its effect on our childhood.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 156512605X, Paperback)"I like to play indoors better 'cause that's where all the electrical outlets are," reports a fourth-grader. Never before in history have children been so plugged in—and so out of touch with the natural world. In this groundbreaking new work, child advocacy expert Richard Louv directly links the lack of nature in the lives of today's wired generation—he calls it nature deficit—to some of the most disturbing childhood trends, such as rises in obesity, Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), and depression.
Some startling facts: By the 1990s the radius around the home where children were allowed to roam on their own had shrunk to a ninth of what it had been in 1970. Today, average eight-year-olds are better able to identify cartoon characters than native species, such as beetles and oak trees, in their own community. The rate at which doctors prescribe antidepressants to children has doubled in the last five years, and recent studies show that too much computer use spells trouble for the developing mind.
Nature-deficit disorder is not a medical condition; it is a description of the human costs of alienation from nature. This alienation damages children and shapes adults, families, and communities. There are solutions, though, and they're right in our own backyards. Last child in the Woods is the first book to bring together cutting-edge research showing that direct exposure to nature is essential for healthy childhood development—physical, emotional, and spiritual. What's more, nature is a potent therapy for depression, obesity, and ADD. Environment-based education dramatically improves standardized test scores and grade point averages and develops skills in problem solving, critical thinking, and decision making. Even creativity is stimulated by childhood experiences in nature.
Yet sending kids outside to play is increasingly difficult. Computers, television, and video games compete for their time, of course, but it's also our fears of traffic, strangers, even virus-carrying mosquitoes—fears the media exploit—that keep children indoors. Meanwhile, schools assign more and more homework, and there is less and less access to natural areas.
Parents have the power to ensure that their daughter or son will not be the "last child in the woods," and this book is the first step toward that nature-child reunion.
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:10:37 -0400)
Louv talks with parents, children, teachers, scientists, religious leaders, child-development researchers, and environmentalists to find ways for children to experience the natural world more deeply.

text: My husband and I have dined at O'hana twice. Our first visit was back in November 2005, the week after thanksgiving. We did not have an ADR, and we dined around 8:30 pm, and watched Wishes from our table. The food was ok, and the experience was fun. I really enjoyed the Bread pudding with Banannas foster sauce, but some of the meats were a little on the dry side. This past Thursday, we had a 5:40 adr. The sides were great (and I knew to order some shrimp without sweet and sour sauce!), the wings were hotter, the salad did not seem as drenched in the dressing. Even the potatoes were moister and more flavorful. Then the meats came. Everything was juicy and delicious. I especially liked the pork. We did not try the sausage or the turkey this time, basically cause we were too full to eat anything else and still have room for the outstanding bread pudding (the main reason I made another ADR for here!). The bread pudding came out, and lo and behold, it was EVEN BETTER than I remembered. Needless to say, I was very pleased by our experience here, but I was left wondering if it was so much better because it was so much earlier in the evening. Has anyone else had this experience? Also I have to give a nod to the fine folks at the Tambu? lounge. The Pina Colada with the raspberry in it was OUTSTANDING!! I remembered to take a pic about halfway through the drink, and I will post it later after I have time to figure out how to do it..

Most teams like to ease into a season when possible by playing either a few exhibition games or maybe stocking the first-half of the schedule with some lighter competition.
Not Utah's second-ranked gymnastics team, no far from it. They're starting off the season not only against the fifth-ranked team in the country, but a team that probably has revenge on its mind when Utah visits UCLA on Saturday.
The last time the teams faced one another was at the 2009 NCAA Championships. The teams tied for third in their preliminary round but Utah was allowed to advance to the Super Six over UCLA by winning the tiebreaker. All of the scores were added, giving the Utes a mere 234.65-234.575 victory over the Bruins.
Utah went on to finish third while all the Bruins were left with was free time to contemplate how they'd barely missed out on the Super Six.
Utah and UCLA have always had a strong rivalry and such a close decision has only added to it, not that the Utes are showing much concern.
For them, they insist, the season opener is more about finding out who they are than being a must-win situation.
"We know they are a great team but we're going in there to do our best as a team because it's the first meet," senior Annie DiLuzio said. "Everybody is going to be nervous. I'm sure most coaches are talking about that. We just want to get out there and do our routines and see how they feel."
Gymnastics teams have that luxury of not putting too much emphasis on actually winning meets since they qualify for the NCAA Championships by scoring average, not their win-loss records.
However, Utah coach Greg Marsden understands gymnasts are also extremely competitive, which is why he schedules teams such as UCLA early in the season.
"It's easy to get the team up and excited about this meet," he said. "UCLA is one of the teams we know will be at the championships that we have to compete with. It will tell us at this point where we are and a good idea of what we need to do."
Marsden plans to use seniors Daria Bijak and Jamie Deetscreek in the all-around along with junior Kyndal Robarts.
Other veterans will fill the majority of the spots as Marsden watches to see who his leaders might be this season to replace departed seniors Kristina Baskett and Nina Kim.
"They left big shoes to fill, but it's someone else's opportunity to fill those shoes and those roles now," he said. "We're looking forward to getting out there on the floor and seeing it."
Even when facing as tough a challenge as competing at UCLA, Deetscreek said she feels good about the Utes' progress in the preseason.
"Everybody looks confident and ready to go," she said. "We are going to try and start out as good as we can and build on that this season."
Saturday, 5 p.m.
About the meet » The Utes have won their last five season openers against the Bruins and lead the series 42-13-1 overall and 14-12-1 since 1995. ... Freshman Katelyn Mohr could compete on the balance beam.

Species predicted to react based on 100% sequence homology: Rat, Monkey, Bovine, Dog,
Specificity / Sensitivity
Phospho-RelB (Ser552) (D41B9) XP® Rabbit mAb (PE Conjugate) detects endogenous levels of RelB protein only when phosphorylated at Ser552.
Source / Purification
Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic phosphopeptide corresponding to residues surrounding Ser552 of mouse RelB protein.
This Cell Signaling Technology antibody is conjugated to phycoerythrin (PE) and tested in-house for direct flow cytometry analysis in human cells. The antibody is expected to exhibit the same species cross-reactivity as the unconjugated Phospho-RelB (Ser552) (D41B9) XP® Rabbit mAb #5025.
Transcription factors of the nuclear factor κB (NF-κB)/Rel family play a pivotal role in inflammatory and immune responses (1,2). There are five family members in mammals: RelA, c-Rel, RelB, NF-κB1 (p105/p50), and NF-κB2 (p100/p52). Both p105 and p100 are proteolytically processed by the proteasome to produce p50 and p52, respectively. Rel proteins bind p50 and p52 to form dimeric complexes that bind DNA and regulate transcription. In unstimulated cells, NF-κB is sequestered in the cytoplasm by IκB inhibitory proteins (3-5). NF-κB-activating agents can induce the phosphorylation of IκB proteins, targeting them for rapid degradation through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway and releasing NF-κB to enter the nucleus where it regulates gene expression (6-8). NIK and IKKα (IKK1) regulate the phosphorylation and processing of NF-κB2 (p100) to produce p52, which translocates to the nucleus (9-11).

About Me
I'm artistic, creative, adventurous, friendly and easygoing. I love being in photographs and would love the chance to be in more. I'm also very open to creative shots in costume or with a lot of editing done post shoot.
Even though I feel like a beginner as a model, I am interested in hearing your ideas and being a part of making photographs that are artistic. I'm not going to do straight nude photographs. I'm just not comfortable with it. I'll do implied nude.. but it might take a good bit of convincing.
I'd love the chance to work with local photographers, especially the ones I've seen on MM. If you'd like to meet me or talk over ideas, message me.
Take Care!

A collaboration with Bona Kim.
Go to The Buddhist Official Site
"Goal-seeking activity is always the enemy of real peace and contentment. The idea that what is here and now is less valuable than what's over there just past the finish line prevents us from ever being truly content and happy right where we are. No matter what your ultimate goal is, it's always off in the distance. This goes for any goal at all, even the goal of attaining ultimate inner peace or saving all beings." -From Tricycle Daily Dharma
In our Narrative Lab class, we explored the question of whether non-linear narrative could achieve the aesthetic affects which Aristotle first described 2000 years ago. The backward-looking, hero/heroine-driven linear narrative offers the audience a catharsis through reversal – an event which creates meaning through the recontextualization of past events.
However, according to Buddhism, the source of all suffering is our mental reflex to imbue value on the universe. We separate ourselves and other objects from the background plane of events, label them, conceptualize them, imbue them with individuality and then draw some value between them. We make ourselves unhappy by maintaining the fiction of our individuality. And this fiction takes the form of stories.
The Buddhist reality of constant change means that nothing, including ourselves, is unitary, enduring, or independent. Dwelling on the past or future prevents us from awakening into the vividness of the present moment.
Through "The Buddhist" we hope our audience gains some awakening. By confronting them with a "game" in which any attempt to control the story results in failure, we hope our audience will be brought into the present moment – to enjoy the here and now, free of the anxious search for happiness in some other place and time.
This project was created as a part of Narrative Lab class taught by Douglas Rushkoff at NYU's Interactive Telecommunications Program (ITP).

This piece is part of a daily "What the Fuck of the Day" series here on Antigone Awakens, where I briefly discuss one thing each day that has me seriously saying, WTF?!?!
Today's WTF OTD comes to you from Yellowstone County. Montana, where this man:
Stacey Rambold, a 54 year old former high school teacher was sentenced to just 31 days (yes thirty-one DAYS) for repeatedly raping a 14-year-old student. This same student later committed suicide just weeks before her 17th birthday.
Want even more shocking details from this story? Apparently Mr. Rambold could have avoided sentencing COMPLETELY if he completed a sex offender treatment program and agreed to other conditions. Yes, dear readers, you read that correctly. A 50+ year old man had sex with a FOURTEEN YEAR OLD student REPEATEDLY and could have received ZERO jail time had he simply completed a sex offender treatment program and stayed away from minors.
Read that again. A RAPIST could have avoided prosecution for his crimes simply be completing a sex offender treatment program? WTF?!
Moving on.
So what did he do to warrant this "terrible" punishment of 31 days in prison (with one day credited for time already served)? He skipped out on his treatment program and began spending time, unsupervised, with minors!
And instead of of agreeing with the prosecution's request of a twenty year sentence, with a minimum of serving ten, the judge determined that the fact that Mr. Rambold had lost his teaching career, his marriage (the poor man!), and his home, had received an internet scarlet letter because of the publicity about the case, and (I'm not even joking here folks) that his victim "was older than her chronological age" (read: the slut must have been asking for it), the judge decided that leniency for this statutory rapist was in order, and gave him a mere 31 day sentence.
This might be my biggest WTF OTD yet.

IBEX: Where you go to see and be seenPosted on
This years show expects to build on the move to Louisville and last years increase in attendance
The International BoatBuilders Exhibition & Conference is billed as an event where the business of boating gets done, and show exhibitors and attendees agree its the place to see whats new and to be seen by current and prospective customers.
We think its important to be in the mix of all the action thats at the show because you never know whats going to happen when all those contributing influences come together, says Ron Bailey, vice president of sales and marketing for Turning Point Propellers. The influencers and the facilitators of the industry are all in one place. Youve got to have an open mind and talk to as many people as possible.
You really dont know whats going to develop out of those interactions, but by throwing your company into the mix youd be surprised how many new ideas, new concepts and new products can be generated, he adds.
IBEX 2011 takes place Oct. 17-19 at the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville. This is the shows second year in Louisville, a more central spot than its previous venue in Florida.
Last year, IBEX saw a 13 percent increase in attendance versus 2009, with 5,161 people attending, compared with 4,567 the previous year. Attendance at IBEX had been dropping for a few years, and 2010 marked the highest turnout in at least three years.
More than 500 exhibitors took part in the show last year, with 70 of them exhibiting for the first time. New to IBEX in 2010 was the aftermarket pavilion, sponsored by Soundings Trade Only. The pavilion was added after the demise of the Marine Accessories Aftermarket Trade Show.
As of mid-August, organizers say, 528 exhibitors were signed up for the show, more than at the same time last year. And 60 new exhibitors had signed on. The aftermarket pavilion is expected to be about the same size as last year.
Everythings pointing to a really good show, says Carl Cramer, publisher of Professional BoatBuilder magazine and co-director of the show, which is co-owned and produced by the magazine and the National Marine Manufacturers Association.
Business climate
Many of those who spoke with Soundings Trade Only say business was up this year and they were optimistic that the trend would continue, heading into IBEX. Weve seen certain segments doing better than others, says Josh Berry, special markets manager for Prospec Electronics. The pontoon market is doing really, really well, [though] fiberglass is down. From that standpoint, we kind of concentrate on really being aggressive with our marketing pitch and sales pitch with pontoon builders. Were not leaving the fiberglass guys out, but were just concentrating more on the pontoon manufacturers.
Prospec has been exhibiting at IBEX for at least 15 years, he says. Its a show the company must be a part of. Otherwise our competitors will get a leg up, Berry says.
[IBEX] has always been a good source of success for us just to have everyone view our products in one central location, he says. Its always proven dividends for us.
Terry Mead, national marine sales manager for upholstery manufacturer Spradling International Marine, says business has been much improved this year and that production has been up for most of the companys customers. IBEX, she says, gives Spradling an opportunity to put its newest products in front of its customers.
For us, its really an opportunity to see our customers in an environment where theyre very much in the zone of looking at new product, Mead says. [IBEX] is something we find to be very beneficial as far as an opportunity to speak with customers and meet new customers and introduce new product.
Bailey, from Turning Point Propellers, says business is up in all of the markets it serves and the company has been aggressively expanding its network during the last three years, which has brought in new business. Though Turning Point is primarily an aftermarket supplier, Bailey also will be looking to meet potential OEM customers at the show.
Were actively reaching out to OEM customers around the world. I think being in the general exhibitor population presents our company as an all-market player, and thats better for us, he says of the companys decision not to exhibit in the aftermarket pavilion.
Although the marine industry represents just a portion of Thetford Corp./Norcolds business, IBEX remains one of the most important events for the company, marketing manager Natalie Burns says. Were always anticipating new business, and it gives us the ability to talk to some builders and engineers in the market, she says. Were hoping to continue to increase our presence overall.
NMMA president Thom Dammrich says the marine industry remains challenged by the economy, but it is coming back. We thought retail sales would be flat to up 10 percent [this year], and now its looking like theyre probably going to be flat, so the low end of our range is where its probably going to come in, he says. Right now theyre still down a little bit on a rolling 12-month basis, but were seeing good strength in pontoons, aluminum fishing boats, and were even starting to see some strength in smaller fiberglass boats.
Its coming back. Its slow, but its coming back, Dammrich adds. Manufacturers production is up about 16 percent. Things are gradually improving.
Dammrich says he expects the slow climb to continue into 2013. As for the instability of the economy, particularly the stock market in mid-August, he expects it will stabilize before October. I think that while economists are expecting slower growth than they did in the beginning of the year, theyre still expecting second-half growth and growth in 2012 to be better than it was the first half of the year, he says.
Louisville location
When IBEX organizers announced the move from Florida to Kentucky, they said the show had a three-year commitment there. With the success of last years event, it looks as if Louisville could become a more permanent home. Dammrich says dates are on hold for the next 13 years, and he expects IBEX to stay in Louisville for the foreseeable future.
Exhibitors generally liked the new venue, as well as the lower cost of doing business in Kentucky, compared with South Florida. Bailey says his company realized substantial savings from the move about 30 percent on total show expenses.
Were pleased with this Louisville venue. Its worked out really nicely, Mead says. We love Miami and South Beach, of course, but this has been kind of nice as far as getting a little different crowd attending the show.
Berry agrees that there was more Midwestern representation at last years IBEX, and his booth saw increased traffic.
Whats new?
Each year, IBEX offers something new, and 2011 is no exception, organizers say. There are 91 seminars to choose from, more than ever, Cramer notes. Its always been a problem in the past having 13 seminars going on at once, he says. So now, the maximum well have going on at once is six, so attendees will have a much greater likelihood of being able to go to the seminars they want.
Also, organizers are working with more partners to produce seminars. Soundings Trade Only, for example, is sponsoring an enhanced dealer development track. Other groups producing seminars include the National Marine Electronics Association, the Association of Marina Industries and the Association of Marine Technicians.
The NMEA is also conducting ConnectFest during the show, which gives attendees an opportunity to see open-source navigation and control networking in action. A single NMEA 2000 backbone, using cable and connectors from multiple manufacturers, will be set up and connected to a variety of products.
As always, the show will feature exhibitor workshops and outdoor demonstrations.
The exhibit hall will feature a Green Marine Route with exhibitors offering environmentally friendly products. Products included are U.S. Department of Agriculture bio-preferred, listed on the EPA Design for Environment list, have an EPA Green Check or have the Green Seal rating.
The annual industry breakfast, held on the first morning of the show, includes an induction into the NMMA Hall of Fame, presentation of the Alan J. Freedman Award, Innovation Awards presented by Boating Writers International, a keynote speech from inspirational humorist Mikki Williams and presentation of the Mel Barr award.
An opening night party will take place Oct. 17 on Fourth Street in downtown Louisville. A concert featuring the Magic Mama Band is scheduled, and drink specials will be offered.

WVU football notebook: Defensive struggles continue
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — West Virginia won the coin toss but elected to receive the second-half kickoff. It was an interesting decision, considering the Mountaineers' recent struggles and the ineffectiveness of their defense.
Kansas State not only kicked a field goal on the opening drive, but the Wildcats' also scored on all five of their first-half possessions.
Asked about WVU's lack of intensity last week against Texas Tech carrying over to the Kansas State game, coach Dana Holgorsen said before the game he was working to correct the problem.
"It is a problem, but for every football team that exists out there, it happens at some point, and you have to fix it," he said. "I mean, it could happen in a bowl game. I am talking about 18- to 22-year-old kids here. Who knows what their mindset is. I take full responsibility for it. It is our job as coaches to figure out where we want it to be and change it and fix it. We failed last week."
Where's the offense?
Unhappy with his running game, Holgorsen shook up the offensive line, starting Nick Kindler over Pat Eger (Thomas Jefferson) at right tackle after Eger started the first six games. The Mountaineers were held to 12 yards on seven carries and were outgained, 346-74, in the first half.
In addition to the disparity in yards, the Mountaineers were held scoreless in the first quarter for the first time this season.
Klein climbs chart
Kansas State quarterback Collin Klein rushed for his 39th career touchdown during the second quarter, breaking the Football Bowl Subdivision record for rushing touchdowns by a quarterback.
Klein scored his 40th such touchdown before halftime and notched his 41st in the third.
Klein shows composure
A two-play sequence in the second quarter highlighted WVU's defensive woes.
Klein overthrew receiver Tyler Lockett, who was open behind the secondary and would have scored a 63-yard touchdown. Undaunted, Klein on the next play completed a 44-yard pass on an identical route by Lockett, who again was wide open behind the secondary. Four plays later, Klein scored on a 1-yard run to make it 31-7.
Smith's streak ends
You knew the game wasn't going WVU's way when Geno Smith was intercepted on his first pass of the third quarter. It was Smith's first interception in 326 passes dating to the South Florida game last season.

Locating sprinkler supply line
1 Attachment(s)
I dug up the sprinkler valves in the back yard to either move them or cap them off to lay a patio. They were deeper than I anticipated. I looked at the supply side of the valves, and thought I knew what the supply line was, but it heads away from the house:( I have a complete circle around the valves, but don't want to continue digging if its just for another sprinkler.
I cut everything out and turned on the front valve and water came out of the pipe circled. Would they run that line all the way from the front yard?
They usually run the supply line to a manifold where the valves are located,and hook up the zones to the valves in the manifold.

- Stylist:
- Luisa V
Jan 05, 2011 - I am 28 years old and before I started seeing Luisa last year I had never gone to the same stylists more than once! I have had so many bad experiences that there were times where it would be a couple of years before I was willing to pay for my next hair cut. I had come across this website and found all the great reviews about Lusia, so I called and made my appointment. I was at the stage where it had been about two years since my last cut, and I was very tired of always pulling my hip length curls into a bun every morning. After talking with Luisa I decided to chop it all off to shoulder length and donated my hair to Locks of Love. Since then I have been back to see her for my regular hair maintenance (which is a first for me!), and this also the first time where I feel comfortable and proud about showing off my curls - and I am determined not to ever hide them in a bun again! Thank you Luisa!

An Anonymous Source Is All Fox Needs To Accuse Obama Of "Fudging" Employment Figures
Blog ››› ››› HANNAH GROCH-BEGLEY
Fox News is helping promote a baseless conspiracy accusing the Obama administration of manipulating employment data for political gain. The accusation, fed by a thinly sourced New York Post column, is now being used to push for congressional investigations.
On November 18, The New York Post blasted the headline: "Census 'faked' 2012 election jobs report." The basis of that claim is a single source, a Census worker who allegedly was caught fabricating data while measuring unemployment in 2010. Beyond that uncorroborated evidence, the Post offers a single anonymous source who claims that Census employees manipulated unemployment data throughout 2012. The Post concluded by calling for a congressional investigation into the supposed "manipulation of data."
Fox cited that report and extended the conspiracy theory beyond low-level Census employees to accuse the White House of knowingly manipulating jobs numbers. The hosts of Fox & Friends argued that the Post reporting corroborated the 2012 conspiracy theory pushed by former General Electric CEO Jack Welch that "these Chicago guys" in the Obama administration and campaign were skewing the jobs data:
KILMEADE: How the number is calculated is one issue. But the issue that we're talking about is how the number was skewed and was fudged, because we're talking about, out of nowhere the unemployment rate dropped from 8.1 percent to 7.8 percent at the crucial time between August and September.
So -- the conventions are over. You wonder if the economy is on track, you've got Mr. Economic Business Wiz Mitt Romney coming up the rear. And all of a sudden the unemployment rate is dropping. And you're thinking maybe we are on the right track.
Jack Welch comes out and says, it's amazing - and I'll just paraphrase -- it's amazing what these Chicago guys will do to win an election.
Later in the show, on-air graphics insinuated that the White House was "cooking the books."
This unsourced rumor, however, provides no evidence that the jobs numbers were manipulated to improve the unemployment rate, nor does it reveal that anything "unusual happened with the September [2012] report," as Business Insider's Joe Weisenthal explained (emphasis added):
The allegation is interesting. It claims that surveyers conducting the Household Survey -- which is what establishes the unemployment rate -- were pressured to fake surveys in order to fill in data gaps, when it was difficult to get adequate response rates on its surveys.
It also claims that instances of bad data being filled in is something that was going back to 2010 -- in other words, this is not a story about the infamous September 2012 jobs report. There's also no allegation here that there was pressure to manipulate the number up. The only claim is that there was pressure to fill in gaps where there was a shortfall in the number of survey respondents.
There may be more information to come to light on this, but at least this particular report doesn't jibe with Welch's claim that something unusual happened with the September report to artificially push the number down.
In a later post, Weisenthal expanded on his criticism of the New York Post piece, noting that "While it's true that at the time the September Jobs Report looked very weird, in retrospect that drop-off in the unemployment rate looks totally on-trend," and explaining that the supposedly-suspicious regional data didn't seem to match a noticeable dip in unemployment in the same regions.
Right-wing media have a long history of attempting to discredit employment data. As early as February 2012, Fox's Steve Doocy claimed the unemployment data was "fishy," while Fox's Eric Bolling asked if the Labor Department was "playing around with the numbers."
UPDATE: In a November 19 Twitter post, CNBC senior economics reporter Steve Liesman reported that the worker named in the New York Post article has not worked for the Census Bureau since August 2011:

Alcohol-related birth defects have many health, social and economic costs. For example, public health, health care, education outcomes, employment, justice, policing, corrections, child and family social services and welfare systems are all affected by FASD.
While there are no national statistics on the rates of FASD in Canada, international estimates are that 9 in every 1000 babies are born with FASD. This means that more than 3,000 babies are born in Canada each year with FASD, and approximately 300, 000 people are currently living with this lifelong disability. However, this rate may be even higher because FASD is hard to diagnose, and a diagnosis may not be made early in a child's life, or may be missed entirely.
Recent research funded by the Canadian Institutes for Health Research and conducted by the Hospital for Sick Children shows that in one Ontario county 3.7% of women drank alcohol in the last six months of their pregnancy. However, the actual rate may be higher because women may drink before knowing they are pregnant.
Other studies have shown that drinking even small amounts of alcohol during pregnancy can have a negative impact on the developing brain of an unborn baby. According to the Canadian Community Health Survey (2003), 13.9% of women reported drinking alcohol at some point while they were pregnant.
FASD carries very high costs for society. For families with a child diagnosed with FASD, a recent Canadian study showed their annual costs for medical and other treatments was approximately $24, 000 per year. Based on the current Canadian population, people with FASD aged 0 to 21 represent a potential annual cost of over $571 million. These costs do not include the lost potential of each affected person or other costs incurred later in life.
The social costs of FASD are also high.As children age, secondary effects of FASD begin to appear, affecting their ability to function and adapt to society. These secondary effects can lead to social problems such as disrupted school time, drug and alcohol abuse, difficulty holding a job, difficulty handling money, problems interacting with others and inappropriate sexual behaviour.
If FASD is diagnosed early, interventions may be able to lessen its impact. For example, an effective management plan for ongoing supports can help prevent people with FASD from developing secondary disabilities and can help them lead more productive lives. Research shows that individuals exposed to alcohol before birth, who began participating in developmental programs between birth and age five, have experienced positive results. Employment coaching and supported living can also help the person with FASD to find and keep a job and become independent with ongoing supports. Despite their disabilities, people with FASD have many positive qualities and can enjoy very successful lives.

Florida City Removes American Flags From Fire Trucks
Demonstrators waving American flags protested outside a fire station in Seminole, Fla. after the city ordered American flags removed from all fire trucks.
City officials said the flags were removed after they received complaints that the flags were being "inappropriately displayed."
The flag was being displayed from the back of a ladder truck. After it was removed, city officials received a second complaint about smaller flags that were being displayed from truck windows.
Fire Chief George Bessler confirmed to Fox News that he directed firefighters to remove the American flags – but it had nothing to do with being anti-American.
"When it came to our attention that this flag was mounted in such a manner we requested the flag be removed," he said, noting that the employee had mounted the flag with good intentions.
Chief Bessler said American flags can only be mounted on a chassis or the right front fender.
"This flag clearly was not being flown in that manner," he said. "The issue was never that we did not want to display American flags on our vehicles. It was simply that we respectfully did it according to the way the U.S. Code was written."
The decision to remove the flags sparked debate across the city.
Resident Deborah Fender told MyFoxTampaBay.com that she felt red, white and "betrayed."
"To be able to fly the flag and support our country, it should be a right," she said.
"You just can't tell somebody you can't fly the flag," David Dabney told The Ledger newspaper.
Dabney is a member of the Tampa Bay Troop Support Group. He organized Sunday's protest hoping it would cause city leaders to rethink their decision.
And it worked.
Chief Bessler told Fox News that he directed the city's maintenance department to fabricate flag stands that would accommodate a properly mounted American flag. He said the flags should be flying on fire trucks by the end of the week.
In the meantime, the chief said he was surprised and concerned by the outrage over the decision to remove the flags.
"What concerns me is where we are in our history without people understanding what the US Code reads," he said. "I'm absolutely thrilled that people are upset about the fact that we had to remove flags. I'm bothered by the fact that they don't understand why we had to do that."
Bessler said he's a student of the flag and its history. He's also Boy Scout and Girl Scout leader who teaches proper flag etiquette.
"We appreciate the display of an American flag," he said. "We have flags that fly 24-hours a day in front of all of our fire stations that are backlit so they meet US Code. We have flags on our uniforms."

Sunlake at Mitchell, Oct. 3: Last year the Mustangs pegged their game with Sunlake as a test of their physicality, and got bumped off in a frustrating 20-3 final. It's a similar situation almost a year to the date. And just like in 2013, this contest will likely tell if Mitchell can realistically expect the playoffs.
Huddle highlights
Same last name, different coach: Longtime Mustangs leader Scott Schmitz retired (for a second time) after a dozen years, and now his son, Andy, takes over. Andy Schmitz was formerly Mitchell's defensive ends coach.
No longer winging it: Although his father started to ditch the wing-T as Mitchell's primary offense, it is now gone altogether. Andy Schmitz is employing a pro-style combined with some spread.
Less of a committee: There will probably not be four players running the ball at least 32 times like last year. Ryan Marsh (207 yards, four TDs) is expected to be the primary tailback.
Off the blocks, in the zone: Schmitz said they will lean on the offensive line, which was young last year but now looks like a team strength with three returners. Mitchell will employe a zone-blocking scheme.
Known quantities
LB Larry Couch, Sr.: Despite being dinged up and playing through injuries later in the year, he had the second-most tackles in school history (136). He is the unquestioned leader on that side.
G/LB Devontay Taylor, Jr.: Schmitz calls him the "real deal" and with an athletic, imposing 6-foot-4, 245-pound frame, Taylor is one of the few offensive linemen who also plays basketball. He will be doing more man-up blocking after doing a lot more pulling and is a possible Division I prospect.
RB Ryan Marsh, Sr.: Marsh has gotten stronger and more explosive through offseason work and is ready to go from a six-carry type to someone who gets the ball another 20 times per game.
QB Alec Lambert, Sr.: Lambert split time with Taylor Schneider as Mitchell never had one get settled in; they combined for 14 interceptions vs. just three touchdowns. But Lambert had a banged-up shoulder, and though he is still rail thin has improved his weightroom results. He appears ready to take full command of the position.
DE Levi Oliveto, Sr.: Home-schooled, Oliveto worked himself into a starting spot last year, then separated his shoulder in the season opener. Schmitz raves that the now completely healthy Oliveto has looked "dominating" in Mitchell's early practices.
DT Tony Napoli, Sr.: Schmitz says a "fire has been lit" under Napoli, who very seldom got on the field despite looking the part of a starter at more than 300 pounds due to what Schmitz characterized as a poor work ethic. But that has changed and Napoli, who has all sorts of ability, is ready to become a force.
WR J.J. Lewis, Jr.: Lewis might be the biggest beneficiary of Mitchell's new offensive scheme. A legit playmaker with great hands, and now a much better understanding of route running.
Coach's corner
"As far as what offense we'll be running, I'm keeping the options as open as possible right now. We're very young and inexperienced, so I've been trying to be as diverse as possible to see what we do well." — Schmitz

Lol..." Should You Renounce Your Citizenship?"
Would you renounce your U.S. citizenship if it meant youd be sending less of your hard-earned dollars to Uncle Sam?
As Americans face higher taxes and stricter enforcement, a growing number of them are, indeed, deciding to turn in their US passports. As of 2013, 77% of Americans will pay higher federal tax rates because the cuts in Social Security payroll taxes expired when Congress passed its tax package on New Years Day.
But the wealthiest households face the highest tax increases. From 2009 to 2011, the number of expatriates, or those who renounced their U.S. citizenship, doubled to 1,781.
Nigel Green, CEO of deVere Group, which provides financial services for expatriates, said that since the start of this year, 48% more of his clients in January than in a typical month inquired about moving funds abroad and the possible tax implications of changing citizenship.
The income tax rate rose this year to 39.6% from 35% for individuals earning more than $400,000 a year and married couples earning more than $450,000.
The Tax Policy Center estimated that those who earn more than $1 million would pay an average of $170,341 more in taxes.
Green said theres a tipping point for most people with regard to tax issues affecting their choice of location and citizenship. If theres only 10% tax [on income], no one would be leaving. But if theres 90%, then most people would leave, he said.
Federal taxes arent the only issue, though. Increases in state income tax rates factor into these decisions as well. Recently, California enacted Proposition 30, which raised state income tax rates to 10.3% from 9.3% for individuals making at least $250,000 and 13.3% from 10.3% for those earning at least $1 million. Golfer Phil Mickelson publicly voiced his concern over the tax increases and threatened to leave California because of the higher rates.
Famous Faces In the first three quarters of 2012, more than 1,100 people left the United States, according to the Federal Register, which tracks Americans who renounce their citizenship. (The Federal Register doesnt make note of why these people give up their citizenships; we can only guess there are financial considerations in many situations.) Among them, one of the most high-profile examples was Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin, who filed to relinquish his U.S. citizenship in September 2011; Facebook had its initial public offering in May 2012. Saverin, a Brazil native, had already been living in Singapore for three years after emigrating to the U.S. in 1998. He could reportedly save as much as $100 million in taxes because Singapore does not tax capital gains.
Saverin isnt the only famous renunciation. Singer and socialite Denise Rich also gave up her citizenship last year under her maiden name, Denise Eisenberg. She is well-known as the ex-wife of former international fugitive Marc Rich, a commodities trader who was indicted on 50 counts of wire fraud, tax evasion, racketeering and other charges. But on his last day in office in 2001, former president Bill Clinton pardoned Rich. Reports claimed that Eisenberg gave up her citizenship to be closer to her long-time partner, an Austrian citizen. Austria also has tax benefits for nationals who live abroad for more than half the year.
Chinese kung fu star and actor Jet Li held American and Chinese citizenships , but dropped both in 2009 in order to be a citizen in Singapore. (Singapore prohibits dual citizenship.) In interviews Li indicated that he chose Singapore because it was free from paparazzi and provided language opportunities for his children.
Most recently, actor Gerard Depardieu made headlines for renouncing his French citizenship to become a Russian citizen in order to avoid Frances proposed 75% tax on earned income above $1.4 million. Russia has a flat 13% tax rate.
Ready to Tear Up Your Passport? According to a 2012 study published by the Research Institute of Industrial Economics that examined the mobility of billionaires over the past two decades, 70% [of those billionaires] have migrated from higher to lower capital gains tax country One-third of the billionaires that moved went to small countries defined as tax havens, including Switzerland, Bahamas and Singapore.
If you want to join the pack, the process to renounce your citizenship isnt very difficult.
The U.S. Department of State says that in order to do so, one must appear in person before a U.S. consular or diplomatic officer, in a foreign country (typically at a U.S. Embassy or Consulate); and sign an oath of renunciation.
But before you take the plunge, be aware that if you forego your U.S. citizenship, theres no turning back. The U.S. government wont reinstate it if you change your mind later so think it over carefully.
In 1965, movie star Elizabeth Taylor attempted to expatriate to keep her European income from being subject to American tax law. But she did not get approval from the State Department because she refused to disavow all allegiance to the United States of America.
And you might be saving money in the long run, but you still have to pay an exit tax, according to the Heroes Earnings Assistance and Relief Tax Act passed in 2008. This applies to those whose net worth is $2 million or more, or whose annual income tax average for the past five years is $145,000 or more (as of 2008 and adjusted annually for inflation each year). One exception applies to people who were born with dual citizenships. For the exit tax, a 15% tax applies to capital gains above $651,000, and tax on other assets like a retirement account, would be at the normal income rate up to 39.6%. These assets are taxed as if the individual were selling or withdrawing their monetary funds from the accounts on the last day of their American citizenship.
Already Living Abroad? So is giving up your rights and privileges as a U.S. citizen worth it? If you live and conduct business mostly in the U.S., it may not be the best decision. Renouncing your citizenship isnt just about taxes it also means no more protection from the U.S. government; possible issues with travel visas, including traveling and staying in the U.S. for long periods of time.
But it may be worth it if you already live in a foreign country. The U.S. is one of the few nations that taxes its citizens regardless of where you live in the world. As long as you remain a U.S. citizen, you will be taxed on your income even if youre living abroad. But if you arent a citizen and live in a foreign country, you dont need to pay any income tax.
[Renunciation] seems to be more pronounced with Americans, and thats more with Americans currently living abroad, Green said. Its easier if youve already left the country. There are less factors involved [in changing citizenships].
In the case of Saverin, he was already living in Singapore and did not have deep ties to the U.S. because he hadnt been here very long. In his case, the financial benefits were clear: he wouldve paid a 35% federal tax rate in the U.S. in addition to 15% on capital gains, while in Singapore his tax rate would be 20% at most and no capital gains tax.
So how would your tax burden stack up? If you earn $1 million a year, thats almost $396,000 youre keeping in your pocket (based on the top 39.6% income tax rate) if you said goodbye to the U.S. and took up residency in a place like Monaco, which doesnt tax income at all. If you were to earn the median household income of $50,054, according to the Census Bureau, then youd be saving $12,500 (based on a 25% federal tax bracket).
The chart above shows the growing trend of expatriates in the U.S. The Federal Register first started recording the number in 1997. (The high number of expatriations that year is thought to be a result of Hong Kong reverting back to Chinese sovereignty, according to tax attorney Andrew Mitchel . Chinese citizens are not allowed to have dual citizenship, so many Hong Kong residents renounced their U.S. citizenship prior to Hong Kong joining China in 1997, so they would become fully Chinese citizens.) When it comes to changing nationalities though, Asia seems to be the popular country of choice, Green said. He sees many clients leaving the U.S., the U.K. and other European nations and moving to Asia. In Hong Kong a person can be paying as little as 15% for income tax, and in New York it can be 40%, he said. Many Middle Eastern countries dont tax income at all.
If you dont mind where you live and the tax becomes excessive, then leaving might be a good choice, Green said. Countries have less of a hold on people. Governments have to raise more taxes, but they cant go too far.
It is abundantly clear that a tax person did not write this article....the author doesn't seem to have any sort of grasp on how taxes actually operate :rofl:
It is interesting, though....I wasn't aware that giving up your US citizenship meant never getting it back again.
I was born in the United States and will never renounce my citizenship.
i don't have american citizenship. i has green card, and i gladly pay my taxes.
Didn't the facebook dude tell Uncle Sam to f*** off and buggered off to Brazil to save on taxes?
(I hope you're not serious)
Nope, wouldn't. It would cost me too much.
but he did go to Pakistan when a US passport couldn't so who knows how things work with dual citizenship and stuff
Anybody that wants to leave the USA to save a few bucks needs to gtfo and stay the fk out.
America was built on immigrants who moved further afield to make more money.
Wealth isn't finite. We don't need their money or their greed.

HOOPS REPORT: UT Looking to Extend Streak of Allowing 60 Points or Less
The Tennessee basketball team looks to build on its unblemished 3-0 home record this season when it hosts Presbyterian College Tuesday at Thompson-Boling Arena (7 p.m. ET, SportSouth).
In doing so, the Volunteers (5-3) also have a chance to extend what has become an impressive scoring defense streak. The Big Orange have held four straight opponents to 60 points or less - Oakland (50), Georgetown (37), Virginia (46) and Wichita State (60).
Tennessee is 2-2 over that four-game stretch, during which opponents have averaged just 48.5 points per game. That includes a pair of top-25 foes, as Georgetown and Wichita State were ranked No. 20 and No. 23, respectively, in the AP poll when the Vols faced them.
The 1995-96 season marked the last time UT held four straight teams to 60 points or less, doing so against Memphis (57), Houston (49), South Florida (43) and Miami [Fla.] (54).
If Tennessee can limit the Blue Hose (2-8) to fewer than 61 points Tuesday - they average 59.7 ppg - it would be the program's first such five-game stretch since the 1981-82 campaign. That season, the Vols ended the year by holding Auburn (56), Vanderbilt (54), Alabama (56), SW Louisiana (57) and Virginia (54) all to fewer than 60 points.
Tennessee's 3-point field-goal defense has been one key to the Vols' defensive prowess. UT ranks 13th nationally by holding opponents to a .248 shooting percentage from beyond the arc. Tennessee's foes make an average of just 3.5 treys per game.
The Vols' overall scoring defense of 57.4 ppg ranks 23rd nationally.
Monday's "Emphasis of the Day" - daily midcourt talking points spearheaded by head coach Cuonzo Martin prior to each practice - focused on energy.
We need CEO's on this team: "Chief Energy Officers" That means you share positive, powerful and contagious energy with your teammates, coaches and the fans! It means you communicate from the heart.

News and Rumors
Pirates Close to Two Year Deal For Barmes
News and Rumors
Ken Rosenthal reports that the Pittsburgh Pirates are the leaders for infield free agent Clint Barmes. Rosenthal adds that the Giants and Brewers are both involved, and that a two year deal seems likely.
We've heard the Pirates and Barmes linked together in the past, although it's mostly been drawing the line between Barmes wanting a starting shortstop gig and the Pirates having a starting shortstop need. There's also been the connection between Barmes and Pirates manager Clint Hurdle, who managed Barmes for most of his time in Colorado.
The free agent market has been very lucrative for middle infielders this off-season, with a lot of two year deals, and some high prices. With the prices paid to Jamey Carroll and Mark Ellis, I wouldn't be surprised if Barmes receives two years and...

Judging the quality of the double seam formed by the Can Seamer is done by both visually inspecting the torn down seam profile as well as measuring the various dimensions. Variations owing to differences in tinplate thickness, temper and sealing compound weight are acceptable within prescribed limits.
Information Quick Links Can Standards End / Lid Standards Seam Measurement Seam Inspection Seam Troubleshooting
Tight 1st Operation Loose 1st Operation
1. The second operation seaming roller flattens the seam thus locking the hook formed by the first operation roller. The pressing also causes the compound to compress and fill up the gaps in the seam not occupied by metal.
2. Excessive pressure may produce a defective seam since the extreme tightness will stretch the material and cause an increase in the width and outside diameter of the can resulting in leakage.This tightness could also produce slippage between the body and cover hooks, commonly called 'unhooking'. 3. Insufficient pressure will result in improper pressing and locking of the seam, causing leakage.
