Hope for Bike Trail Continues
Washington Court House City Manager Joe Denen is hoping the community will rally together to keep work going on the walking & bike path in Fayette County.
He says the city and other local groups have worked together on a project that will help create the same amount of wetland that might be destroyed if an extension of the bike trail were to be put in. Groups like Soil & Water and Pheasants Forever will contribute to development of the bike trail system.
He says they are working toward a grant that would take care a lot of the project. Denen adds the development of the trail is needed for safety reasons - a bike path that goes from the city to the YMCA would be a safer option for those who might travel by bike or foot.
He anticipates completion of the trail system will go beyond 2014.

The pair fired an opening 59 for 13 under in the fourball format, where the best score from the team counts.
England led India's Arjun Atwal and Jyoti Randhawa by one shot with Australians Mark Hensby and Peter Lonard also on 12 under at Vilamoura.
The Welsh pair of Bradley Dredge and Stephen Dodd were 11 under with Sweden.
Spain's Sergio Garcia and Miguel Angel Jimenez were 10 under, with Scotland's Stephen Gallacher and Scott Drummond on seven under alongside America (Stewart Cink and Zach Johnson).
Ireland's Padraig Harrington and Paul McGinley limped to a disappointing five-under 67.
Half of the 24 teams carded scores of 64 or lower on the 7,174-yard Arnold Palmer-designed Victoria Clube de Golfe.
The tournament is a stroke-play event but will alternate between better ball and the alternate-shot foursomes format.
"Foursomes is tougher and you wouldn't expect to score better than fourballs," said Donald, who won the event last year with Paul Casey.
Donald, ranked 15 in the world, and the 13th-ranked Howell picked up seven birdies and an eagle to reach the turn in 27.
They grabbed a further birdie at the 10th but lost some momentum with four straight pars before adding three more birdies in the last four holes.
An eight-foot par putt from Donald on the 18th broke the magical 60 barrier.
"I really wanted to hole that one. It would have been disappointing not to shoot 59," said Donald.
"We thought 18 under was still on after the 10th."
"Then, starting off as strong as I did, you know it's not going to get much better than that and it was enjoyable while it lasted."
The Indian pair were delighted to finish the first day so high on the leaderboard.
"This will be big news back home. We love team games but it is normally through cricket. This will be huge for the game," said Atwal, whose team qualified via a late exemption.
"No one expects our team to do well or win. India has been in the World Cup before and not really done much.
"I don't think people know that we have a decent team.
"We came here with no expectations but we gained confidence by both getting into birdie positions at a lot of the holes.
"More than anything, though, we had fun and that was the key."

We're teaming up with other food and garden bloggers to host Summer Fest 2010, a season-long garden party. Each week we'll feature favorite garden-to-table recipes and tips to help you enjoy the bounty, whether you're harvesting your own goodies or buying them fresh from the market. To join in, check out awaytogarden.com.
It's almost over, kids. Garden season, that is. At least in many parts of the country. The big spike in hard squashes, the return of spinach, and the appearance of apples and pears in farmer's markets means the end is near. But don't despair, this week of fall fest is all about the ways you can make your produce last a teeny bit longer.
Quick, save the apples!
Whip up some apple sauce. It's not as intimidating as it sounds, and you can freeze it in freezer bags, too.
Make and freeze apple bread. You'll thank yourself when you defrost a loaf one chilly winter morning.
Save the squash!
Roast or steam, puree, freeze. This goes for most varieties of squash and pumpkins. When you're ready, take out the frozen pulp and use in soups and baked goods.
Try your hand at pumpkin butter. Don't be intimidated, Deb at Smitten Kitchen has an easy-to-follow how-to.
Save the cabbage!
You could get all exotic, and make some kim chi. Curious? It's a classic Korean dish of fermented cabbage and hot pepper. Check out Kim's Kimchi on Food(ography) for some know-how and a fiercely hot recipe.
Or go the more traditional route and make sauerkraut to enjoy now on a reuben (like Emeril's Open-Faced Reuben), or save for the colder months to use in Mario Batali's Sauerkraut and Bean Soup.
Save the onions!
How does onion marmalade sound? Amazing, right?
You could pickle them, too, super-simple and refrigerator-style.
What are you putting up during these last few weeks of the harvest season?

February 27, 2008
Mr. Chairman and members of the Committee, I am pleased to appear today to discuss the Department of Veteran Affairs' ( VA) draft bill to request authorization for six major medical construction projects and twelve major medical facility leases, as well as addressing other issues related to VA's construction program. Joining me today are Joe Williams, Assistant Deputy Under Secretary for Health, Robert Neary, Executive - in - Change, Office of Construction and Facilities Management, Brandi Fate, Director, CAMPS, and Jim Sullivan, Deputy Director, Office of Asset Enterprise Management. Let me briefly begin by reviewing the status of VA's major construction program.
The Department is currently implementing the largest capital investment program since the immediate post-World War II period. This program represents implementation of the results from VA's strategic plan and the Capital Asset Realignment for Enhanced Services program (CARES), initiated system wide in 2002 and yielding results in May 2004. As of Fiscal Year 2008 (FY08), VA has received appropriations totaling $5.3 billion for CARES projects. Currently, VA has 40 active Major Construction projects. Thirty-three of the 40 projects have been funded for a total cost of approximately $2.8 billion. The remaining seven projects have received partial funding totaling $560 million, and have a total estimated cost of $2.3 billion. VA is requesting $471 million in Major Construction appropriations for FY09 for infrastructure improvements and enhancements to its medical facilities. This request will provide additional funding to five of the partially funded projects, and begin the construction process on three new starts. We are seeking authorization for six major medical facility construction projects and twelve major medical facility leases for FY09.
VA has a real property inventory of over 5,000 owned buildings, 1,100 leases, 32,000 acres of land and approximately 158 million gross square feet (owned and leased). VA has reduced in excess of 1.6 million square feet in the last two years. During the CARES process, the average age of VA facilities was calculated at well over 50 years old. Many of these older facilities are not designed or constructed to meet the demands of clinical care in the 21st century. VA's management of these assets is critical to providing health care and services to our veterans.
VA effectively manages its vast holding of capital assets through performance monitoring and analysis, decreasing underutilized and vacant space, improving facility conditions, decreasing operating costs, and reducing non-mission dependent assets. VA also develops energy savings performance contracts designed to reduce energy consumption in federally owned facilities, reducing the demand and dependence on natural resources.
VA utilizes a multi- characteristic decision methodology to foster a decision making approach in prioritizing its capital investment needs and requirements. Through this methodology, VA establishes its Five Year Capital Plan. The plan describes the selection of VA's capital acquisitions and funding requests by incorporating a formal executive review process. The process begins with Veterans Health Administration ( VHA) strategic planning initiatives that identify capital needs based upon demographic data, workload, actuarial projections, cost effectiveness, risk, and alternatives. Once a potential project is identified, it is reviewed and scored based on criteria VA considers essential to providing high quality services in an efficient manner. The new funding requirements are considered, along with existing program requirements and workload projection decisions, when determining the projects and funding levels requested as part of the VA budget submission.
Selected projects based on VHA's strategic process are then examined through the Department's Capital Investment Panel to ensure all projects are based upon sound principles, promote the "One- VA" vision, align with VA strategic goals, address the VA Secretary's priorities, and support the President's Management Agenda. The Capital Investment Panel then scores and analyzes the projects on these principles and submits the results to the Strategic Management Council ( SMC) for consideration. The SMC is VA's governing body responsible for overseeing VA's capital programs and initiatives. The SMC reviews the projects and submits its recommendations to the Secretary, who makes the final decision on which projects to include in the budget.
Major capital investment needs are requested from facilities in the fall, prioritized through each Administration and the Departmental review process, and evaluated for the Secretary's approval by the following summer. Under the current process, once a decision has been made to include a project in the Department's budget, the design process begins with the selection of the design architect. The design process consists of three phases - schematic design, design development and construction document preparation. While the timing can vary with the size and difficulty of the project, design on average takes 18 months. Once design is complete, the construction contractor is obtained and construction begins shortly thereafter. Almost one-third of VA projects are executed using the design build method in which a contract is awarded to an architect/engineer and construction contractor team who take a preliminary design provided by VA and completes the design and then constructs the project accordingly.
Mr. Chairman and members of the Committee, my further comments regard VA's proposed bill submitted to the Speaker and will relate to the four sections separately, rather than the bill as a whole.
Section 1. Authorization of Fiscal Year 2009 Major Medical Facility Projects
Section 1 of the proposed bill would authorize the Secretary to carry out four major medical construction projects in Lee County, Florida; Palo Alto, California; San Antonio, Texas; and San Juan, Puerto Rico.
Section 2. Additional Authorization for Fiscal Year 2009 Major Medical Facility Construction Projects Previously Authorized
Section 2 of the proposed bill authorizes the Secretary to carry out two major medical facility projects located in Denver, Colorado and New Orleans, Louisiana, respectively. Both projects were previously authorized for lesser sums under Public Law 109-461, but additional authorization is required to complete the construction projects at these locations.
Section 3. Authorization of Fiscal Year 2009 Major Medical Facility Leases
Section 3 of the proposed bill authorizes the Secretary to carry out twelve major medical facility leases in fiscal year 2009. These leases will provide an additional eight outpatient clinics, expand two current outpatient clinics, develop a primary care annex facility, and provide needed research space.
Section 4. Authorization of Appropriations
This section requests authorization for the appropriation of $477,700,000 for major construction projects in fiscal year 2009 and $1,394,200,000 for the projects previously authorized for lesser sums. This section also provides $60,114,000 from the Medical Facilities account to authorize twelve major medical facility leases in fiscal year 2009.
In closing, I would like to thank the Committee for its continued support for improving the Department's physical infrastructure to meet the changing needs of America's veterans, and we look forward to continuing to work with the Committee on these important issues. I urge you to support our proposed authorization bill so the Department can provide the highest level of care for veterans in these high priority areas.
Again, thank you for the opportunity to appear before the committee today. My colleagues and I would be glad to answer your questions.

Towards a classification of criterion referenced assessment models in mathematics courses - student and academic perspectives PROCEEDINGS
Dann Mallet, Jennifer Flegg, Queensland University of Technology, Australia
Global Learn, in Melbourne, Australia ISBN 978-1-880094-85-3 Publisher: Association for the Advancement of Computing in Education (AACE)
We present the findings of a study into the implementation of explicitly criterion-referenced assessment in undergraduate courses in mathematics. We discuss students' concepts of criterion referencing and also the various interpretations that this concept has among mathematics educators. Our primary goal was to move towards a classification of criterion referencing models in quantitative courses. A secondary goal was to investigate whether explicitly presenting assessment criteria to students was useful to them and guided them in responding to assessment tasks. The data and feedback from students indicates that while students found the criteria easy to understand and useful in informing them as to how they would be graded, it did not alter the way the actually approached the assessment activity.

Consumers Stuck
Regardless of where a fake comes from, you probably won't know it's bogus until you try to get the nominal maker to service it. In one case, customers bought what they thought was high-performance PC RAM from OCZ Technology several years ago; it turned out to be an inferior phony product bearing the OCZ label.
According to Alex Mei, vice president of marketing for OCZ, the counterfeit memory led to freezes, crashes, or PCs that wouldn't start. OCZ traced the illegitimate memory to an online store and demanded that the store stop selling the fakes.
Though OCZ had no legal obligation to do so, it sent replacement RAM to many of the victims who had complained about the bogus modules; the complaints were dealt with case-by-case, Mei says.
OCZ's generous response is the exception, not the rule: Consumers have no legal recourse with the legitimate brand-name manufacturer; instead, they must try to get their money back from the store where they purchased the phony goods.
Many vendors state that the company's warranty doesn't cover bogus goods; others deal with each return separately. If you innocently obtain a fake copy of Windows, you may qualify for a legitimate replacement from Microsoft: Visit www.microsoft.com/genuine to find out more or to file a report if a seller is unhelpful when you try to return a suspect product.
Vendors such as HP, Kingston, and Motorola say they usually learn about counterfeiting problems as a result of consumer complaints like the ones OCZ received. Given the international scope of the problem, that's unlikely to change. Good bargains do exist: Most of the low-cost merchandise PC World bought for this story worked and was genuine. But your best safeguard against phony hardware is to shop skeptically.

Texas Baptist Forum: Praying over Christmas cards
- December 8, 2010
Last year, when I was about to discard the Christmas cards we received, my wife suggested I keep them and pray each day for a person/family/business who sent a card. I did so and found it a great blessing for my life during my quiet time.
Other Baptist Standard readers may want to do the same.

Fantastic belief
Scientist Stephen Hawking warned: "We're acting with reckless indifference to the future on planet Earth. It will be difficult to avoid disaster in the next hundred years, let alone the next thousand or million."
Why is humanity hell-bent on destroying the world? Has humanity lost its moral compass, if it ever had a real one? Numerous people, disappointed in church and religion, are embracing atheism, but they're throwing out the baby with the bathwater.
Maybe the time has come to replace the archaic and man-made concept of God with science-based understanding. However, despite the fact that 10,000 scientists are working on the Large Hadron Collider, in trying to recreate the Big Bang and looking for the God particle, not one scientist came out and admitted, perhaps for fear of ridicule, that before the Big Bang—and as the cause—there was and is a Super-Intelligence, who is as invisible and intangible as is our mind.
It may take many years before that happens, since even Hawking says, "The universe can create itself spontaneously out of nothing and it has no creator." Is belief in God any less fantastic? Is it too much of a conjecture to presume the Big Bang was designed, just like any seed, with the anthropic principle and the process of creavolution, to produce, in time, exactly what exists today?
As Hawking notes, every year lost in curbing the violence of man against man and nature will require eons for the earth to heal itself, and nobody really knows the day of no return.

Ministry training hub
I write to commend to Texas Baptists the administration, faculty and students of Zarephath Bible Institute in Rawalpindi, Pakistan.
The institute is becoming the hub for evangelical ministry training in northeast Pakistan and several surrounding countries. For 27 years, it has been following its vision of training young men and women to be servant leaders for the churches.
With the support of our church, I recently had the privilege of teaching a two-week term in the institute's new English-language Master of Divinity program. My experience there and in other parts of Pakistan was very positive. The church of Jesus Christ there is boldly moving forward in the face of challenging circumstances.
If others have an interest in teaching a two-week term in the M.Div. program at the institute, they may contact me at jtramsey@suddenlinknet or (903) 657-3973. I will be happy to share my experiences and get them in touch with our missionaries who have observed the institute up close for some time.
Check out the institute's website at www.zbiedu.org and a link to a brief video found at www.sermonstoread.com.

Violence Against Women Act Reauthorization bill (S. 1925)
Apr 18 2012 10:58 AM
Senator Whitehouse: (9:57 AM)
Senator Wyden: (10:14 AM)
Senator Grassley: (10:25 AM)
Senator Vitter: (10:36 AM)
Senator Heller: (10:50 AM)
- Spoke on Cybersecurity legislation.
- SUMMARY "I'm here this morning to express four points that I believe we must keep in mind as we take up Cybersecurity legislation. The first is that Cybersecurity legislation should improve the public's limited awareness of current Cybersecurity threats and the harm that those threats present to our national security, economy, and privacy. The public for years has been kept in the dark and that is wrong. The corporate sector systemically underreports cyber attacks for fear of scaring customers, for fear of encouraging competitors or for triggering regulatory review. I was pleased that the Securities and Exchange Commission after prompting by Senator Rockefeller and myself and others issued guidance for when registered companies must disclose breach information. The government itself systemically underreports cyber attacks because it over-classes information about cyber attacks on government systems The legislation we pass must reveal the threat of the cyber threat to the American public. The act includes provisions from the Cybersecurity Public Awareness Act, Senate S. 813 which I introduced with Senator Kyl. These provisions will at least begin to improve the public's awareness of the current cyber threat environment we face. Second, we must recognize that inadequate awareness and inadequate protection against cyber risks is endemic among our largest corporations The third point I want to make this morning and perhaps the most important, is that this legislation on Cybersecurity will have failed if it does not ensure that our American critical infrastructure has adequate Cybersecurity. There must be a process for identifying critical infrastructure, establishing appropriate security standards, and ensuring that critical information companies meet the standard. If an attack comes, we must be sure that America's most capable defenses and countermeasures are prepositioned to defend critical American infrastructure. We simply cannot wait until an attack is underway on basic needs and services we depend on like our electric grid, our communications networks, and the servers that process our financial transactions ... The last point I want to make today is that Congress in this bill should consider the appropriate structure and resources for the Cybersecurity and cyber crime mission of the Department of Justice, the Federal Bureau of Investigation and law enforcement components of the Department of Homeland Security. We do not do enough to investigate, prosecute, and take other appropriate legal action against cyber crime, cyber espionage and other cyber threats."
Senator Wyden: (10:14 AM)
- Spoke on the Wyden-Feinstein amendment (closure of postal facilities moratorium) to the Postal Reform bill.
- SUMMARY "This amendment protects those millions of Americans from any kind of postal delay that could disrupt their ability to ensure that their vote is counted. Now, my home state of Oregon has a system in which all ballots are cast by mail. In Oregon, if the ballots are not delivered by mail to the county election offices by the deadline on election night, they are not counted. So it's essential to the conduct of fair elections in my home state that delivery of ballots cast by mail not be delayed. To prevent the potential threat to our elections from delayed mail delivery, the Wyden-Feinstein amendment would place a moratorium on the closure of postal facilities until November 13, 2012, in states that vote by mail or allow any voter to vote no excuse absentee. It would also require the Postal Service to notify election officials of closings and consolidations and require that the Postal Service study the effect of closing or consolidating a mail processing facility on the ability of the affected community to vote by mail. Now, my home state, consistently has high voter turnout. Vote by mail has been successful and it is popular. In our state, more than 85% of registered voters participated in the 2008 elections. But this kind of approach to voting, is popular not just in my home state of Oregon. In the 2008 election, 89% of ballots in Washington state were cast by mail, as well as 64% of those in Colorado, over 50% in Arizona, and it was nearly that high a percentage in California. In my home state, the Postal Service is a place where people send and receive packages, mail-order prescriptions, and it's a place that also community residents come together. And so it seems to me that if we're going to close and consolidate, you know, postal facilities, not only will it harm the delivery of ballots and campaign-related mail to voters in return of the ballots to election officials, but it also will stop much of what is vital to rural America and that's the opportunity to come and gather in one place."
Senator Grassley: (10:25 AM)
- Spoke on energy and gas prices.
- SUMMARY "I'm here today to point out that ten years ago this very day, this Senate decided not to drill for more oil in the United States where we know oil exists because the argument at that time was used that why drill because it's going to take many, many years to get it on-line. The Senate bought the argument that we shouldn't drill because it's going to take too long. Today, we think about more opportunities to drill in the United States for oil. I want to point out that the very same arguments that were used ten years ago are being used today, because if we drill today, we might not get some of that oil on-line for several years down the road. Well, we want to be thinking about the future, as we should have thought about the future in 2002, ten years ago, when we decided not to drill. Around the country, American consumers are paying near-record prices for gasoline at the pump Since January 2009, the regular price for a gallon of gasoline has nearly doubled. In 2011, consumers spent a greater percentage of their household income on gasoline than any year since 1981, when we thought 90 cents for a gallon of gas was a lot of money. Affordable energy is a major economic issue. Paying nearly $4 for gas acts like a hidden tax and results in people having less money to spend on other things. Rising energy prices also increase the cost of doing business for job creators and taking away dollars that otherwise could go to hiring without workers. We should be doing everything possible to prevent these high energy prices today or tomorrow. The Senate had an opportunity, as I said, ten years ago today to take action to increase our domestic oil supply. Unfortunately, the Senate missed that opportunity, missed an opportunity for lower prices today and importing something less than the $830 million we spend every day, even today, to import oil. With immediate to keep that money to this country - we need to keep that money to this country."
Senator Vitter: (10:36 AM)
- Spoke on the Two-Year Anniversary of the Deep Water Horizon explosion and offered a moment of silence for the 11 men who were killed in the explosion.
- Spoke on status of the Gulf of Mexico recovery.
- SUMMARY "First is the NERDA process under federal law, the natural resources damage assessment. That is the process under federal law by which all stakeholders help assess the damage to the environment so that the folks guilty of this horrendous incident pay for those damages, pay the state, pay the federal government, pay others who will work to restore the environment. That NRDA process is ongoing. It's a multi-year process. But there is some positive result from that process already. Step one of the process was a settlement with BP for an upfront payment of about a billion dollars The second important work that's ongoing that involves all of us here in the Senate directly is the need to pass the RESTORE Act through the Highway Reauthorization bill, the Transportation Reauthorization bill. The restore act language would dedicate 80% of the clean water act funds related to this disaster to gulf coast restoration. I thank all my colleagues again for an enormously positive, really overwhelmingly positive bipartisan vote to attach that restore act language to the Senate Highway bill. And I urge my House colleagues, including House conservatives, to pass a house version of the Highway bill today. That's important for our country, for highway infrastructure, and it's important because it's a vehicle for this RESTORE Act. Now, a third and final category, that I wanted to touch on that isn't as positive, quite frankly, as the environmental rebound, is the impact of all of this and the related moratorium on drilling to our economy on the gulf coast and energy production. Immediately after the disaster, very soon thereafter, President Obama announced a complete moratorium on activity in the gulf, on new drilling. And that moratorium lasted several, several months. I think that was a bad mistake, an overreaction to the disaster. And I think that's been borne out in several ways, including that the panel of experts that the President got together, their report, we now know, was totally doctored and edited at the White House to make it seem like those true experts supported a full moratorium when we know directly from them that they did not. Well, this moratorium went in hurt to a lot of Gulf Coast residents and workers that was unnecessary. Now, of course, we needed to pause and get new procedures and some new safety regulations in place. Of course we needed to learn the lessons of the disaster, incorporate those into practices. But we didn't need an all-out moratorium for months and we don't need a continuing slowdown that continues to this day."
Senator Heller: (10:50 AM)
- Spoke on the Nevada economy.
- SUMMARY "I come to the floor today to highlight an issue i fight for everyday and that's jobs in Nevada. In Nevada, having a strong tourism industry means more jobs in the state. Las Vegas, Henderson, Lake Tahoe and Reno have long been favored destinations for millions of visitors, both domestically and more increasing internationally. The entire southern Nevada economy is heavily dependent on hotel, gaming, and convention industry examine employs over one-quarter of the region's labor force. Plain and simple, tourism is the lifeblood for business and job creation in Nevada. Like many taxpayers, I was shocked and disappointed to read the GSA's Inspector General's report that found inappropriate spending at the 2010 western regional conference that was held in Nevada. This conference was excessive, wasteful and it completely ignored federal procurement laws and internal GSA policy on conference spending. I believe it's appropriate for congress to exercise its oversight authority on GSA to look into the agency's practices and provide corrective oversight to ensure the taxpayers' dollars are spent wisely by this administration. However, I want to be clear. This is not an issue about location. This is the result of poor decision making and leadership by the GSA Las Vegas is one of the greatest locations in the world for a conference, a meeting or vacation, with over 148,000 hotel rooms and 10.5 million square feet of meeting and exhibit space citywide, it is ideally suited to host companies and organizations, both large and small. In fact, this past January, Las Vegas hosted the Consumer Electronics Show, which had more people attend than the Iowa caucuses. I fully agree that it was inappropriate for the GSA to waste taxpayer dollars, but it is not inappropriate to come to Las Vegas for conventions and meetings. The actions of GSA should not reflect negatively on Las Vegas, and I'm asking all of my colleagues to be mindful of that as they conduct their investigations. The viability of the economy in Nevada is dependent upon the volume of visitors to our state."

In a move to bolster its mobile computing business, Honeywell (NYSE: HON) on Monday announced an agreement to purchase EMS Technologies (NASDAQ: ELMQ) for $491 million.
The $33-per-share price tag is, coincidentally, exactly 33 percent above EMS's Friday's closing price of 24.80.
EMS shares were up as high as 32.88 in Monday morning trading, while Honeywell shares were up 36 cents, or 0.7 percent, to 55.89. Clearly Wall Street isn't punishing Honeywell for paying a premium to acquire EMS.
The $33 share price is 124 percent above EMS's 14.75 closing price a year ago. Shares have risen steadily over the past year, surging in April after the company announced it was "exploring strategic alternatives."
EMS makes mobile computing products (and offers services) for field environments, including transportation, warehousing and search and rescue. Products include terminals, antennas, data storage and surveillance applications.
(Wait a minute. Surveillance applications, Honeywell, government contractor...someone call Alex Jones!)
A month ago EMS reported record adjusted first-quarter earnings of $9.5 million.
In a statement announcing the acquisition, Honeywell Automation and Control Solutions President and CEO Roger Fradin said, "EMS strengthens our core mobile computing business and expands our addressable market with complementary new products, channel partners, and entry into the warehousing and port segments that we believe will be growth drivers for the business."
Honeywell said it expects the transaction, which needs shareholder and regulatory approval, to close in the third quarter.

Allumonde ring, designed by Richard Hutten at the Golden Globes film awards
Stars at the Golden
Globe film awards on 15 January 2007 will be wearing a special ring designed
by renowned furniture and industrial designer Richard Hutten exclusively
for Design 21: Social Design Network, a joint UNESCO/Felissimo venture.
By wearing the ring, individuals support this cause and make a bold fashion statement. Wearing the ring represents Commitment to the cause, Connection to one another, and Continuity to the cycle of giving. "We are trying to involve personalities in the fields of art and design to act as advocates," says Indrasen Vencatachellum, who heads the Arts, Crafts and Design Section at UNESCO. "It is also highly symbolic – people wear something in common for peace," he adds.
Proceeds from sales of the ring, which will be showcased on 13 and 14 January to stars attending the Golden Globes, support a large network of non-profit organizations worldwide and allow individuals to direct proceeds to the charity of their choice. 21% of all proceeds will be donated - 19% to the charity or non-profit organization (NPO) of the member's choice and 2% to UNESCO.
UNESCO will use the
proceeds to activate projects, including a series of design contests related
to social issues that will be held within the framework of the Design
21 network.
October 5, 2006, DESIGN 21: Social Design Network was launched with an event
at the Felissimo townhouse in New York City hosted by Koïchiro Matuura,
Director-General of UNESCO and Kazuhiko Yazaki, President of Felissimo.
Representing the design, art, non-profit, philanthropic and business communities,
over 400 people guests created a wonderful atmosphere of support for the
project. The evening's special guests were designers Richard Hutten, who
designed the Network's Allumonde ring, and Monika Kosciuczuk, who designed
the winning logo of the Social Design Network.

2006 Acura MDX
Information provided by nctd.com
The Acura MDX offers an outstanding V6 powertrain, seven-passenger seating and an all-wheel-drive system that prevents skids almost before they happen. Neat styling, attention to detail, excellent crash protection and competitive pricing increase the appeal of this luxury SUV.
Introduced in 2001, MDX was named North American Truck of the Year by a panel of 50 independent automotive journalists. Through the five model years since, the MDX has been steadily improved in all areas.
The body has grown more rigid, allowing better vibration control and a smoother ride. Power has increased, and a more compact five-speed automatic transmission shifts even more smoothly than before. The MDX's four-wheel-drive system was remapped to work seamlessly with a Vehicle Stability Assist system to improve handling on slippery surfaces and to enhance stability in all conditions. Side curtain airbags covering all three seating rows were added, as were tire pressure monitors. Front and rear end styling has been redone, with a more aggressive edginess. Acura has updated the optional navigation system and added a rearview camera that engages when the transmission is in reverse. A DVD entertainment system with wireless infrared headphones is available. XM Satellite Radio and Bluetooth capability for compatible cell phones come standard.
For 2006, the interior has been upgraded, and the Touring edition receives ebony-tone, Zebra woodgrain and satin-chrome accents. Otherwise, the MDX returns for 2006 much as it has been: one of the best values in the class.

Birth Of A Poem - Poem by lalitha iyer
A poem is born
when a child is born;
the little love,
it's tender tale
soft fingers
cracking voice
closed looks
hugging bulk
a tiny sack
of tender emotions
its urge to suckle
the milking spots
hunger is inborn?
in silence
when the urge is over
a sleeping verse
shut in dreams
beyond the closed eyes
lies all wonders;
about to bud and blossom
the lovely noises
and squeals of delight
it utters in coming days
the lovely turn arounds
first hug so tight
warmth exuding
the bond of heavenly taste
the way it looks
the new world around
with new ideas brimming
and novelties swimming
the day it crawls
sucking own limbs and legs
twisting and turning and
clinging and climbing
sizing things
with inner dimensions
stuffing all hand
into the little mouth
dancing in the leaking rain
pouring from puzzling drain
the languages it speak
with its silent looks
little chuckles
and telling muses
every baby blossoms
with thousands of poems within
soon to be manned
with dry prose stained.

Madam, It is a wonderful poem. You have taken me 23 years back to my old memories, when I was blessed with my only daughter! It is wonderful to watch that little tender baby growing-up into a well matured person winning laurel in life. Your poem has brought back all those sweet things back into my mind. Getting baby into one's life is a thrilling thing for a man or a woman. Thank you so much for the great poem. Regards. (Report) Reply

President Barack Obama's political opponents doubtless won't take "yes" for an answer or acknowledge his stewardship of the economy has been on track, but the June job figures are promising. Some 288,000 jobs were added, and the nation's unemployment rate dropped to 6.1 percent.
The stock market shot up at the news.
And then came the White House budget office estimate the 2014 federal deficit will drop to $583 billion, the lowest level since the president took office. The estimate was $66 billion less than the administration predicted earlier this year.
No one person or event stands above others as the reason for this significant step forward in the economic comeback since Obama took office in 2009. And the president's chronic critics would say it all would have happened anyway in the natural course of post-recession economics.
And remember how those who blasted, and still blast, the Affordable Care Act as doomsday for the nation's economy said it would implode everything, slow recovery and cause the deficit to explode? None of those things happened.
All Americans ought to celebrate that this nation is recovering from the most serious economic crisis since the Great Depression. It might not have been so. And the president ought to get some credit, at least, for recognizing that simply allowing the economy to recuperate on its own would have left many hundreds of thousands of people out of work for longer periods of time. The recovery could have taken 20 years.
In the early 1930s, opponents of President Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal shouted about socialism and catastrophe and advocated doing nothing or, as they put it, allowing the free enterprise system to bring the country back from the brink.
Roosevelt didn't listen. Those who were alive in that time and saw families on the streets and witnessed children going hungry believe the country might have been vulnerable to revolution without the New Deal.
No concessions from critics
The recession Obama inherited might not have been as severe, but for families who lost their livelihoods and their homes, there was indeed a personal depression.
The president's critics intend to concede him nothing.
For some reason, President Obama stirs in his critics a hatred not often seen even in partisan politics. If only they would channel their emotions into productive action in the country's best interests, they could be constructive participants in policy debate instead of just Obama-haters.
The News & Observer
How long will the lunatics (unequalizer?) cover for Obama lies?
How many times will the left let Harry lie,without calling him on it?
How many times has Nancy had botox treatments?
Time for more serious issues---like: Why does the SOTH John Boehner, wear eyeliner?
"I wonder what people would think if the bully pulpit couldn't be used to spread lies." It sure worked great for W and DICK.
I wonder what people would think if the bully pulpit couldn't be used to spread lies?
I wonder why 60-80 thousand children have arrived in this country illegally,and why are sick children being shipped across the country?
I wonder why Obama is buying a 4 and a quarter million dollar house and Nancy does not live in the area?
I wonder if 2091 has a thought?
I wonder if roadster is actually that gullible?
I don't wonder about buzzy anymore,he is to far gone.

If teabagger thinks Obama's numbers are bad wait til the see the single digit GOP. The one thing teabagger forgets is old angry males are in rapid going-home-to-Jesus mode.
# Teabaggers gloat, old angry males vote, Obama needs a lifeboat
If teabagger thinks Obama's numbers are bad wait til the see the single digit GOP. The one thing teabagger forgets is old angry males are in rapid going-home-to-Jesus mode.
The president's ratings are really not so bad when you compare them to the 7 percent approval rating of the most obstructionist do nothing congress in American history and the GOP party of NO. When Lindsey Graham tells his own party that their chances of winning back the White House are slim without immigration reform ( Hello Speaker Boehner - Is there anybody in there? ) then things must really be looking grim for the GOP.
If 2014 is "better" than 2004, then Executive Orders-in-Chief, Barack Obama's poll figures should be soaring, but instead his numbers are tanking way down into Lame Duck Alley.
The further we put the failed Bush era in the rearview miror the better America gets. Only low info teabagger wants to return to the failed Republican policies that ended in global collapse.
Which GOP clown does HRC get to destroy?
Sock puppets stuck in the bushes, and hi-fiving each other ...
Can it get any betterr than this ... ??? ...
Only DBCooper knows for sure
Roadster, Amen.
The last year that Bush was the year we almost had a global economic collapse, starting in March. Make that look good, Bam. The deficits are his.
No racism here. Just Obama Oppositional Derangement Syndrome. This year he has been blamed for ""Syria is in the midst of a brutal civil war? The right blames President Obama. ISIS advances in Iraq? The right blames President Obama. Innocents die in violence between Israelis and Palestinians? The right blames President Obama. Ukrainian separatists are accused of shooting down an airliner with Russian military equipment? The right blames President Obama."
Boehner and Cantor both refused to go the White House for policy discussions. But they had time for TV self-promotion. The party of No has no immigration bill, no jobs bills, no health care plan, no foreign policy except to invade everywhere, their idea of a budget is to cut taxes for the rich and kill Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, they put off the infrastructure bill for another half year. You got nothing.
Great article and Obama has done well cutting the deficit in half from the 2008 Bush collapse. It's also good to know the deficit is on pace to stay down for the next 12 years or so. Let's not forget with the deficit reducing success of Obamacare giving millions healthcare access and even creating jobs Republicans have nothing to campaign on other than rape babies and banning birth control.
It'd be nice if the Obama haters would do some work instead of fake scandals, birth certificates and gimmicky lawsuits all because these Donald Sterlings and Clive Bundys teabaggers are racists.
Wow,the deficit will be at about the same as when Bush LEFT.
But the "reporter" failed to report the same budget office said this will be the last year of sub trillion deficits for the next 12 years.
Also,lest we forget,the ACA has yet to be fully integrated.We still have mandates,that were conveniently postponed,until AFTER the next election.We can only guess at the harm still to come.
Maybe the Obama lovers should enter into a constructive policy debate,instead of claiming racism?

TOP STORY >> Communities salute our vets
Members of the Little Rock Air Force Base honor guard were on hand to give a rifle salute during the Veterans Day ceremony at the Sherwood Veterans Memorial.
By JEFFREY SMITH and JOHN HOFHEIMER
Leader staff writers
Sherwood was the first area city to recognize veterans for their contribution to our nations freedom. Members of the Sherwood Rotary Club, the American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars, along with elected officials, participated Nov. 8 in a special recognition at the Sherwood Veterans Memorial.
The audience included veterans from the Second World War, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Gulf War, Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom.
Mayor Virginia Hillman and incoming Sherwood Rotary president Marcia Cook placed a wreath on the memorial wall. The Little Rock Air Force Base honor guard presented the colors, fired a gun salute and played Taps during the ceremony.
Alderman Butch Davis said after the ceremony, It is important to remember the veterans and the ones who served before us.
They are the ones who made us free, and today soldiers are the ones who keep us free. I always thank them for their service.
It is important for soldiers to hear thank you. Sherwood should have a parade for veterans, Davis said.
During the Vietnam War Davis was a platoon sergeant in the Army. He was shot in July 1969. Davis received multiple shrapnel wounds. He was struck in the neck, back, shoulders, buttocks and leg.
Davis was paralyzed from his neck down for a year. Davis was awarded the Purple Heart and is a Bronze Star recipient.
Attending the veterans ceremony was 87-year-old James Chappell of North Little Rock. During the Second World War, Chappell joined the Navy at age 19. He was a gunner on the light cruiser the USS St. Louis in the Pacific Ocean.
Later in the war, Chappell went to the Navy hospital corps in San Diego. He was a pharmacist mate first class on the USS Pastores.
He said the Pastores was a refrigerated ship that carried frozen goods and delivered supplies to troops on islands in the Pacific.
Chappell said, We took turkeys to MacArthur in the Philippines for Thanksgiving.
After the war was over, we decommissioned the medical unit in landing ship tanks in San Francisco, he said.
When Chappell got out of the service, he earned a pharmacy degree from the University of Tennessee in Memphis.
Chappells pharmaceutical career spanned 40 years in North Little Rock and Little Rock until he retired at age 72.

On 6 July 1935, at the opening of the new Museum Boijmans, an official announcement was made about the acquisition of the Koenigs Collection on loan in the presence of the collector and his wife. [1-1-2.pdf] In his foreword to the catalogue Museum Boijmans Rotterdam. Verzameling F. Koenigs schilderijen published specially for the occasion, themuseum's director, Dr Dirk Hannema wrote: 'Only those with intimate knowledge of this world-famous collection, which has been put together over the years with a rare understanding of aesthetic values, can appreciate what such an enrichment means for a museum'. And he continued: 'With what Boijmans has of these masters, the Rotterdam museum outstrips all the Dutch collections and can rival the greatest in Europe'.
The collection was insured in 1935 against fire and against damages during transport for 2.5m guilders, with the drawings accounting for 1.8m of that total. This insurance was added to the museum's main policy. [1-1-9.pdf]
The loan of the collection had probably been planned for some time. The museum had already received the painting Les Deux Amies by Toulouse-Lautrec on loan at the beginning of 1933. [1-1-1.pdf] Two exhibitions were held in Schielandhuis in December 1934 and January 1935, prior to the closure of the museum's old premises on 31 March: Dutch Drawings of the 15th, 16th and 17th Centuries. The F. Koenigs Collection, and One Hundred Old French Drawings from the F. Koenigs Collection.
L: The old Museum Boijmans, 1890
R: The new Museum Boijmans and the Museumpark, 1935
The new museum was built on the Dijkzigt estate in a small polder between the Westzeedijk, Westersingel and Mathenesserlaan. It was designed by the architect A.J. van der Steur in close consultation with Hannema, both of whom made detailed preparations and visited new museums in Europe and the United States in order to create a museum in Rotterdam that met all the latest requirements.
The arrival of the loan of 47 paintings and more than 2,000 drawings from the Koenigs Collection had already been taken into account. The new museum had a well-equipped printroom occupying various rooms on the ground floor: a storage room, a study room in the library, and three interconnected exhibition galleries. The curator was the art historian Dr J.G. van Gelder (see 'In conclusion' below). Hieronymus Bosch's St Christopher, which was one of the loans from Koenigs, marked the beginning of the chronological display, and there were also several works from the Koenigs loan in the Rubens gallery.
Further exhibitions of works from the Koenigs Collection were staged in 1935 and 1936. Nineteenth-century French drawings were on show from December 1935 to January 1936 in the exhibition Drawings by Ingres, Delacroix, Gericault, Daumier from the Koenigs Collection. Paintings from the loan formed part of the large 1936 summer exhibition Hieronymus Bosch and the Northern Netherlandish Primitives. Several sheets were also lent to other exhibitions at home and abroad. [1-4-2.pdf] Two important drawings by Dürer and Grünewald were actually in New York when war broke out and were not returned until 1947. [1-1-14.pdf] /[2-4-1.pdf]
The Museum Boijmans printroom: the exhibition gallery (1935-1971), 1947
Dr Helmuth Lütjens, who had advised Koenigs for years and was also a German (he took Dutch nationality in 1939), became the director of the Paul Cassirer gallery in Amsterdam on 12 June 1923. When the loan was made to the museum he handed over a typescript inventory book [ill.]. The German art historian Dr Ernst Scheyer had started work on a typescript catalogue of the 17th-century Dutch drawings before emigrating to the United States in 1935. These two documents formed the basis for the full catalogue of the collection, and provided scholarly access to it together with the exhibition catalogues. The museum started photographing the collection on glass negatives in 1935-1940.

R: Typescript catalogue by Dr Ernst Scheyer, 1935 - Specimen pages: [ScheyerKoenigscatNL.pdf]
Immediately after being transferred to the museum the drawings were given the collector's mark of 'FK' in a horizontal oval (see the illustration on the following page). >MORE This mark was added inconspicuously to every drawing, usually in the bottom left corner on the reverse. The stamp and the tin with brown ink are still preserved in the museum [ill.]. The drawings and prints from the second Koenigs Collection (see below) are not marked.
L: The tin of brown ink and Koenigs's collector's stamp
R: Koenigs's collector's mark (L. 1023a)
The correspondence between Dirk Hannema and Mr and Mrs Koenigs, which is preserved in the museum's archives, testifies to mutual respect and trust. At the end of 1937 Mrs Koenigs asked Hannema to support the couple's application for naturalisation. [1-1-12.pdf] It had to be done in a hurry due to the approaching adulthood of their son F.F.R. Koenigs (1918-2000), who ran the risk of being called up for military service in Germany (children who were minors were automatically naturalised along with their parents). The family became Dutch citizens on 9 February 1939, which eliminated the threat of their son's conscription.
Next: The Koenigs Collection becomes the property of the liquidating bank (1940)
