text: WASHINGTON ( TheStreet) -- As president of the Delta ( DAL) pilots union during the six most critical years in the history of what became the country's leading airline, Lee Moak brought a new, more flexible approach that enabled a transformation not only at Delta but also throughout the airline industry. Today, as the likelihood of a merger between American ( AAMRQ.PK) and US Airways ( LCC) appears to represent the final stage of three decades of industry consolidation, Moak is particularly visible. Mergers have become the norm. The Delta pilot contract has become the industry standard. And Moak himself is national president of the Air Line Pilots Association, the country's principal airline pilot union, with about 51,000 members at 35 airlines. In assessing the key players in the industry's 21st century transformation, three individuals stand out. One is Delta CEO Richard Anderson, who arrived at the carrier from Northwest in September 2007 and then pursued the merger that his predecessor had opposed. Another is US Airways CEO Doug Parker, who in 2005 presided over the first merger to follow the industry's wave of bankruptcies, and then provided the spark that ignited the rest of them. As for Moak, he stepped in just before Delta's bankruptcy, signed a contract that seemed to benefit both parties, helped the carrier fend off a hostile merger and then made the pilots key players in putting together a merger that worked. His approach may be described as "for pilots to win, airlines must win too." "I worked hard on my part of (the Delta/Northwest merger)," Moak said, in an interview. "I have a different philosophy than others in the labor movement and maybe in the airline industry, and Delta has been successful, going into bankruptcy and then restructuring and merging. But I wouldn't say it's just Lee Moak. Lee Moak is the face of a large team of people who believe in the same idea." Anderson called Moak "an incredible leader" and "on a personal level, an exceptional individual," who has good relationships with several Delta executives. "His father was a Marine sergeant and Lee was a Marine fighter pilot, so when you're talking about someone with discipline and determination, you're talking about Lee Moak," Anderson said, in an interview. "He is also polite, and that makes him effective.

"I was able to customize this menu perfectly! I added an extra course and was very pleased with the layout and design. Upon reviewing my personalized prof, I was pleased to see that I was given two option- both of which were gorgeous. The people who personalize the cards do a fantastic job! They have a way of being able to truly understand what you want with the designs and they do a wonderful job of delivering it."
"Everything about the menu card was perfect. I had a LOT of information on the card, both front and back, and therefore required a lot of customization from WPD's professionals. They were incredibly quick, patient, and made each change exactly as I requested. I had the menu on the front of the card and special thanks and tributes on the back. Everyone at the wedding loved it...as did I. Most importantly, my Mom loved it...and she is the toughest critic! I would definitely re-order this for another event and would definitely recommend this item to a friend!"

Surfing: Megapuss
Megapuss is a side project that consist of Devendra Banhart and some other guy that, I'm sure you've never heard of. It's very much Banhart at it's core, but it's more poppy and surfing (hence the name). Frankly, I don't think people have been giving this as much love as it deserves.

But it's all nonsense, NASA assures us. Here's a look at some of the most prevalent 2012 doomsday myths, and some NASA-provided reasons why we shouldn't retreat into our bunkers.

Fall is the perfect season to immerse yourself in culture: Museums and galleries were seemingly made for rainy days. And once inside, it almost feels like spring. It's an era of rejuvenation, as new exhibitions in radically redesigned spaces are changing how artwork and historic artifacts are displayed. Digital apps promote personal interaction, while websites allow guests to map out visits in advance. Here's a roundup of shows and exhibits around the globe that you'll be hearing about. Plus, ideas on where to refuel
LONDON: The British Museum's Shakespeare: Staging the World (until Nov. 25) explores how theatre, popular culture, politics and diplomacy were reflected in the Bard's plays while London was growing into a world power. Artifacts on display include rare manuscripts and common objects of the times, such as coins. (British Museum: Great Russell Street; britishmuseum.org)
For contemporary art, move to the Tate Modern. The photography show by William Klein and Daido Moriyama (Oct. 10 to Jan. 20) will contrast social life on the streets of New York and Tokyo, as seen through the lenses of two masters. (Tate Modern: Bankside; www.tate.org.uk) WHILE YOU'RE THERE: Get off at St. Pancras station and stay in the new Pullman hotel, the brand's first in the U.K. The location is superconvenient, and the blue-and-white rooms are soothing retreat from the city.
(Andrew Winning/REUTERS)
BERLIN: Take a walk around the Museumsinsel (Museum Island), a grand collection of archeology, ancient cultures and classical art institutions. (Museumsinsel: Bodestrasse 1; smb.museum/smb/standorte)
(Thomas Wolf)
Seek out the Neues Museum, which is celebrating the 100th anniversary of the dig that uncovered the iconic bust of Nefertiti and other ancient Pharaonic artefacts. (Dec. 7 to April 13) A short distance away, the radically renewed German Historical Museum presents a grand chronological narrative on human activity in Germany. Its unvarnished treatment of the Nazi period is sobering. (German Historical Museum: Unter den Linden 2; dhm.de) WHILE YOU'RE THERE: Warm up with a cup of coffee from the just-opened Barn Roastery, an industrial-looking java joint the twitterati is ridiculously excited about. (Schonhauser Allee 8; thebarn.de/roastery)
PARIS: Late September saw the opening of the new Department of Islamic Art. The museum's extensive collection – some pieces date back to the early years of the Muslim religion in the 7th century – now reside in a courtyard under a daring, undulating glass roof. (Place du Louvre, louvre.fr/en)
(Remy de la Mauviniere/AP)
The Quai Branly continues its modern attempt at ethno-cultural dialogue in a non-eurocentric manner. Does it succeed? Judge for yourself with The Sources of Aborigine Painting (Oct. 9 to Jan. 20) and Nigeria: Arts of the Benue Valley (Nov. 13 to Jan. 27). WHILE YOU'RE THERE: Live it up at Wanderlust, a giant neon-green-tinged club, restaurant and gallery skirting the edge of the Seine that opened this summer. (32 Quai d'Austerlitz; wanderlustparis.com)
TOKYO: The Tokyo National Museum traces Japan's ancient history, Buddhist traditions and multiple art forms. A special exhibition, China: Grandeur of the Dynasties (Oct. 10 to Dec. 24) switches the attention to its neighbour, and "aims to view Chinese civilization from a new perspective" through new excavation findings and rare objects from across the provinces. (13-9 Ueno Park, Taito-ku; www.tnm.jp) WHILE YOU'RE THERE: Unwind in the Palace Hotel Tokyo, where you'll find the first Evian spa in Japan. Or simply take in the hotel, which reopened in May after a $1.2-billion renovation. (1-1-1 Marunouchi, Chiyodu-ku;palacehoteltokyo.com/en)
BEIJING: The National Museum of China's new premises – barely one year old – is described as "the largest single museum building in the world." Focus on the major installation titled Ancient China, which traces general Chinese history from prehistoric times to the final days of the last Emperor in 1912. More than 2,500 objects are included, with hundreds designated as "first class" national treasures. (16 East Chang'an Avenue, Dongcheng District; en.chnmuseum.cn) WHILE YOU'RE THERE: Check into the Opposite House, an oh-so-superslick hotel. Its latest amenity: a custom iPad/iPhone app that, among other things, streams music from its private playlist. (11 Sanlitun Rd.; theoppositehouse.com)
(Alexander F. Yuan/The Associated Press)
TORONTO: The ROM presents Observance and Memorial: Photographs from S-21, Cambodia (until March 10). Pictures of prisoners from a notorious detention centre in Phnom Penh – just some of the two million victims of the Khmer Rouge – are testimony to a revolution gone deeply astray. 100 Queens Park; rom.on.ca
In stark contrast, the Art Gallery of Ontario will sizzle with Frida and Diego: Passion, Politics and Painting (Oct. 20 to Jan. 20). The exhibit will explore both the distinctive styles of Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo and how the couple gained heroic status as symbols of social transformation. More than 80 works will be on display, drawn from rare collections in Mexico. (317 Dundas St. West, ago.net). WHILE YOU'RE THERE: Make time for David Chang's latest Momofuko Noodle Bar outpost. The wait time for steamed buns and ramen can run two hours, but fans swear that it's worth it. (190 University Ave.; momofuku.com)
(Moe Doiron/The Globe and Mail)
OTTAWA-GATINEAU: Vodou, a special exhibition at the Canadian Museum of Civilization (Nov. 15 to Feb. 23), goes beyond a stereotypical voodoo show to explain the meaning of little-known rituals and open a window on Haitian communities within Canada. (100 Laurier Street, Gatineau, Que.; civilization.ca)
At the Canadian Museum of Nature, the destructive forces of earthquakes, volcanoes and other forces will be explored in Nature Unleashed (until May 5). WHILE YOU'RE THERE: Skip lunch and indulge in the 12-course tasting menu at Atelier from chef Marc Lepine, winner of this year's Gold Medal Plates culinary championship. (540 Rochester St.; atelierrestaurant.ca)
QUEBEC CITY: The Musée national des beaux-arts will feature Art and Nature in the Middle Ages (Oct. 4 to Jan. 6), in collaboration with the Musee Cluny in Paris. The medieval artifacts – including illuminations and stained glass – will reveal complex layers of artistry and vision during this turbulent period of European life. (Parc des Champs-de-Bataille; www.mnba.qc.ca) WHILE YOU'RE THERE: Book a night at the new Hôtel La Ferme, a cultural hub/eco-friendly resort just 45 minutes out of town. (50, rue de la Ferme, Baie-Saint-Paul; lemassif.com/en/ferme)
NEW YORK: Where to begin? At the Met, of course. Don't miss Regarding Warhol: Sixty Artists, Fifty Years (until Dec. 31), which explores the complex issue of artistic influence through 145 works, including 45 by Warhol himself. (1000 Fifth Avenue at 82nd Street; metmuseum.org)
And don't forget MOMA. The entertaining and provocative Century of the Child: Growing by Design (until Nov. 15) shows how changing ideas about childhood, education and children's entertainment have influenced many aspects of design, including schools, homes, clothing and even military propaganda. (11 West 53rd Street; moma.org) WHILE YOU'RE THERE: Grab an afternoon snack at Chobani SoHo, one of the city's new yogurt cafes. Yes, yogurt (not the frozen kind) is the new cupcake – just much healthier. (150 Prince St.; chobanisoho.com)

NEW ORLEANS, La. - As Isaac made its way through Louisiana, hundreds of people were grappling with the loss of their homes.
Billions of dollars spent to upgrade the federal levee system that protects New Orleans held strong, but areas outside that protection buckled under the weight of a more than 12-feet tall storm surge on Wednesday.
"I didn't expect for it to be like this, I thought we was going to have just a little bit of rain squall," said Danny Mason, a rescued Isaac victim.
Mason was one of 70 people rescued from the town of Braithwaite in southern Plaquemines Parish. Flood waters topped a parish levee and inundated the entire town. Firefighters were seen cutting holes in roofs and breaking second-story windows to rescue those trapped in flood waters that reached their roofs.
"I went into the attic, luckily I brought a chainsaw, and cut a hole in the attic, climbed out, made some calls and somebody came and got me," said Clyde Jones, who spent three hours on his roof waiting for rescue boats.
Firefighters, sheriff's deputies and National Guard troops also helped rescue pets and wild animals. The entire town was under a mandatory evacuation but many chose to stay in their homes despite the warning from state and local officials.
"We never, ever thought it would be this bad," said Wade Lobell, who also lost his home. "I don't have any insurance."
Parish President Billy Nungesser said he was worried the levees on the east bank would not withstand Isaac's surge. Nungesser said the parish was in the process of working to heighten the 18-mile stretch of levee that protects southern Plaquemines Parish, but Isaac rolled ashore before the work was complete.
"20-plus-feet that rolled through this parish," said Nungesser. "This wasn't supposed to be Katrina, it's turning out for the east bank as bad, if not worse."
Canals and neighborhood streets in New Orleans Parish were also pushed to capacity.
"How many times are we going to have to go through this, I mean we know how to get rid of water," said Rachel Reitan, whose home came precariously close to flooding in the English Turn subdivision.

You'll also find jackfruit, tapioca and yam chips. Often the bananas are cut into chunks, fried, dipped in jaggery or sugar syrup, then dried and sold as sweets.

Semolina Biscuits - Nan Khatai
This is the definitive Indian biscuit. Countless recipes have all sorts of different ingredients but they all contain semolina and plain flour. Many decades ago, women would prepare their biscuit dough at home and take it to a communal oven or bakery for the baker to bake. The cooked biscuits would then be delivered back to them.

It's no secret that rents in Seattle are skyrocketing: The average apartment costs about $1,400 a month. Now throw an attractive neighborhood like Queen Anne into the mix and things quickly become even less affordable.
Bellwether Housing is proposing a new, affordable option. The company is a local nonprofit that focuses on affordable-housing development. Its mission is to develop apartments to serve Seattle's low- and moderate-income working class, said Becky Bicknell, senior-housing developer for Bellwether.
It's proposing a 65-unit building at 1511 Dexter Ave. N., and had its first Early Design Guidance meeting in Queen Anne on Feb. 19. Rent for the mostly one-bedroom units would be between $700 and $950 per month.
Bellwether has 30 buildings and 1,900 apartments, which are all income-restricted. It houses about 3,000 residents. Bellwether develops, owns and manages the properties.
Tenants come from an income range that's 30 to 60 percent of the area's median income, Bicknell said. Residents are allowed to stay even if their income increases over time.
Average rent for a unit in a Bellwether building is around $800 a month, Bicknell said. Some people do pay less, with part of their rent subsidized by Section 8 rental assistance.
Bellwether bought the Queen Anne property on Dexter in 2011, when the market was a "little softer," Bicknell said. The company has certain criteria to meet before it begins a new project, like proximity to downtown or other employment centers and access to public transportation. Residential development on the Dexter corridor and similar areas has "proven to be a good decision," she said.
Queen Anne needs affordable housing because increased rents and decreased vacancy have created "a lack of supply" for people who are earning the income amount Bellwether serves, Bicknell said. She sees support staff for downtown employers struggling to find an affordable place to live. Queen Anne is close in proximity to downtown and has had very little new affordable development in recent years, making it a perfect location for Bellwether to focus on, she said.
"There's an ever-shrinking supply right now [of apartments] under $1,000 a month," she said.
Not for everyone
So how unaffordable are Queen Anne apartments, really? Apartment Therapy recommends people spend 30 percent of their income on housing each month — a fairly standard calculation. That means if someone makes $72,000 a year, they should spend $1,800 on housing, according to its calculations.
$72,000 is not out of range for a two-income household, but those people may look for more long-term housing, like a condominium or house. The average Seattle household income in 2011 was $52,048.
Of 30 one-bedroom apartments listed for rent in Queen Anne recently, the average rent was approximately $1,650 per month. Some came in at much more, at $2,500 a month, and some were considerably less, at $850 a month.
Magnolia only had three apartments listed, averaging $1,255 per month.
Using Apartment Therapy's conversion method, that means a tenant would need to make about $65,000 a year to live in an average Queen Anne apartment.
Bellwether has a rigorous application process, which means it's "not just a free-for-all" for people off the street; Tenants must prove that they can afford the unit. Bicknell said she thought the required income range for these apartments would be between $30,000 and $50,000.
"The drawback is that we can't offer more and that we do have a somewhat-limited range of people that can move in," she said.
That said, Bicknell has no doubt the company will be able to fill the Dexter development apartments in no time. From the outside, it won't look any different than its more-expensive neighbors, Bicknell said.
Offering housing solutions like this satisfy the "triple bottom line," Bicknell said. Many people are battling with health problems, housing and job stability. By taking the crunch of over-priced rents out of the equation, people can focus on other things.
These developments also help the environment and city congestion by being close to transit and reducing the number of cars on the road, she said; this way, people aren't commuting to work from their more affordable apartment outside city limits.
"The residents we're serving are the backbone of our economy," Bicknell said. "They're people just coming out of college, people that are working class or people that just happen to be a little lower-income. With rents being what they are, they're priced out of any other neighborhoods."
These types of affordable housing units are needed all over the city and into King County, Bicknell said. Bellwether is focusing on housing near future light-rail stations and in areas that are within walking distance of employment or service centers.
Bellwether hasn't done much development in Queen Anne or South Lake Union. It is currently renovating the Parker Apartments in Queen Anne, which it already owns.
The Dexter development will hopefully come online in the next few years, Bicknell said. The company is seeking a contract rezone for the development, which will need to be approved by the city. But, so far, its getting support from the Uptown Alliance and the Queen Anne Community Council, Bicknell said.
Even once it gets approval for the development side, like with the Design Review Board, the company is still challenged by its own finances. Bellwether relies on subsidies from the city and state, and state resources have constricted in the last few years, she said.
What's 'affordable'?
Brian Runberg, principal of Runberg Architecture Group, has worked on urban mixed-use housing developments in Queen Anne and Seattle for the last 20 years. He recently did the Expo apartments across from KeyArena and is working on the Astro apartments, on the arena's west side. Runberg is also working on the Bellwether Dexter development.
He's personally invested in Queen Anne, he said; He's been a resident for two decades and has worked with the Queen Anne Community Council and Land Use Review Committee.
"Just based on the desirability of location and quality of environment, Queen Anne has always been on the higher end," Runberg said. "It still has that prestige and captures that market."
Queen Anne is not an exception, though, Runberg said; Rents are going up across the city.
"Low-income housing" is a misnomer, he said. People who would live in a development like the Bellwether one are dental hygienists and office employees. This is not housing for homeless people, which is also needed, he said. This is about housing for people who would need to make more than $80,000 a year to spend his suggested 40 percent of their income to afford a typical Queen Anne apartment, Runberg said.
"When you think about it, how many people do you know who can afford to live in a market-rate apartment?" he asked.
Queen Anne should have more affordable housing options — diversely priced living situations make for a healthy and diverse economy and community, Runberg said. Having only high-end housing options makes for a polarized society, which is never preferred, he said. Affordable solutions would get people out of the suburbs and actually living in the neighborhoods where they work.
It would also lessen the traffic density he sees as people commute on and off the hill each day.
"What I've seen is people have the wrong impression or opinion of what 'market rate' means and what 'affordable' or 'workforce' or 'low-income' means," Runberg said. "The market rate is really luxury, and the workforce is the majority of people in any workforce blue-collar or white-collar."

Get Two! 04-26-2017
BY FAR the most comfortable SHOES I own. Not just boots, SHOES. They are light on the foot, not clunky or loud. Super quiet, good looking, comfortable and made by Volcom. The best clothing around!
Well Worth It! 02-28-2017
Great boots, comfortable, and would definitely recommend.
Awesome Boots 02-27-2017
The boots are awesome, they look great and feel great. I am thinking in buying another pair. Very nice boots.
Will Probably Get Better With Age 01-28-2017
These boots are obviously well made, but they are following the best pair of boots I have ever owned that are so broken in that they are ready to retire. I am looking forward to see if these boots will eventually be as comfortable. I think they have a good chance once some of the hard edges on the soles wear down a bit and my foot smashes into the bed...time will tell.
Love Them 01-19-2017
Great boots. The best ones I've ever owned.
Sub-Zero Boots 01-10-2017
Amazing boots, very warm and breathable. Great traction while ease of use to get on and off. Use for work and play, I'll be back!
Best Boot Of Its Kind 01-10-2017
This boot beats everything it comes up against. I wore these to the outskirts of BC when I went to shred baldface. And they were just what I needed when I wasn't strapped in. Thank you volcom for always coming through.
Holding Up Well 01-05-2017
I've been wearing these every day for about a month and they are holding up well. I was a little concerned after seeing some reviews saying that the bottom sole was coming unglued for people within a couple days. I've had no problems and I've been wearing them to work and out and about through snow and wet conditions. They're pretty comfortable and have broken in pretty quickly. I do keep them laced tight as that helps speed up the break in process. I oiled them with neatsfoot oil after the first couple days to keep them soft and help with water resistance. I bought the rust color and the oil did darken them but I think they still look great. Overall, very happy with my purchase. Would recommend.
Sub Zero - Works for me. 01-05-2017
Really stoked on these boots. I got the chestnut and really like the color/style, slightly hipster. They are really warm, comfortable and easy wearing without stiffness. Initially, they felt slightly snug in the toe box area and I contemplated going up a half size. However, over a period of a week or so that was a non issue due to break in. I wear them in the snow too. Good traction and the leather still looks good. Proper boots.

By Aliza Kassim
(CNN) -- Top lawyers in the India district where a woman was gang-raped are saying that they will not represent the six men accused in the attack, which led to her death.
The 11 lawyers who make up the executive board of the Saket Bar Association on Wednesday vowed not to represent any of the accused assailants because of the nature of the crime. The brutal attack galvanized the nation and has led to protests by outraged citizens.
In addition, the bar association has appealed to its 7,000 members to also refrain from representing the accused, said the association's president, Rajpal Kasana.
"We are not taking this case on the grounds of humanity," he said.
The boycott by the bar association does not mean the accused will not have lawyers. Attorneys from other districts or ones appointed by the court will likely fill that role.
"We want it to be clear that we will not obstruct or stand in the way of any lawyer who is court-appointed or who represents these assailants -- we do realize that they will be defended by someone, most possibly legal aid," Kasana said.
The call for local lawyers to avoid defending the accused is unprecedented, but justified because "everyone is emotionally attached to this case," he said.
The 23-year-old woman, whose name has not been released, died last week in a Singapore hospital, where she received treatment after being airlifted from New Delhi.
Attackers assaulted the woman and her male companion on a bus December 16, robbing them of their belongings before dumping them at the side of a road, police said.
The male companion was eventually discharged from a hospital.
Singapore doctors said the woman died "peacefully" early Saturday, surrounded by her family and Indian Embassy officials. She had been in "extremely critical condition" since her arrival.
The brutal attack and the woman's death have sparked widespread debate over the way the country handles sexual assaults, and the treatment of women in Indian society.
Lawmakers are weighing a proposal to toughen the country's anti-rape law. Some have suggested a new law should be named after the woman, while others have said it's illegal to reveal her identity.
The victim's father told CNN affiliate IBN that he supported naming a new law after his daughter.
"All I ask is that the law is the toughest it can be," he said. "The death penalty is compulsory for a crime so grave the assailants must be hanged. The courts must give these men the death penalty."
India's Supreme Court on Thursday will hear a petition asking it to suspend all lawmakers who face charges for crimes against women. The petition was filed in the aftermath of the brutal gang-rape, which sent thousands of outraged protesters to the streets for days.
"This unfortunate episode has galvanized the nation," said Jagdeep S. Chhokar, an official with the Association for Democratic Reforms, which tracks political candidate's criminal records.
Chhokar said six Indian state lawmakers are facing rape charges in unrelated cases, and two people in the federal parliament are also facing charges of crimes against women that fall short of charges of rape.
The group says that in the past five years, political parties across India have nominated 260 candidates facing charges of crimes against women such as assault and outraging the modesty of a woman.

We want to create a new channel made of DNA!!(躍動感のあるフォントが欲しい)
We want to create a channel that does not exist in nature. DNA is a designable molecule and has interaction with various biomolecules. Thus, a channel made of DNA enables to transport more various biomolecules against energy gradient. Such a new channel will be used… 1. In medical care, because it can transport new molecules that are unable to be transported into cells without DNA. 2. For sampling what we want from cells. 3. For BIOROOMBA by compositing with artificial liposome.( Off course use for DDS) (図が欲しい)
Project Image
|Coming soon...
All the creatures on Earth are made of cells. The exterior and the interior of the cell are compartmentalized by biomembranes.
A nanodevice that is able to actively transport only the specific oligonucleotide through the biomembrane has a great potential to deliver siRNA into the cell or to extract mRNA expressed in the cell.
Here, we decided to create a novel device with such a function.
We have designed a cylindrical injector/extractor device made of DNA origami. Inside the cylinder, a cascade of single stranded DNAs is planted. Once the outer-most ssDNA binds to a target oligonucleotide, the target is passed to the inner-ones one by one because of the higher bonding energy assigned to the inner ones.
We also investigate how the cylinder penetrates the biomembrane by using liposome as a model membrane.
Selector: Single stranded DNA. Once the outer-most ssDNA binds to a target, the target is passed to the inner-ones one by one. Gate: Cylindrical structure connecting the inside and outside like gates. A cascade of the "Selector" is planted in this. We can use this as an injector or extractor. Membrane: The exterior and the interior of the cell are compartmentalized by biomembranes. We use liposome as a model membrane.

If that were the intent, the author would (or should) have written it in a different way, even if it were simply by the addition of "often."
Yea, I'd agree. Often 'would' is avoided when discussing past habits, and instead, the simple past is used with an adverb like 'always' or 'often.'
By the way, should'nt it be 'if that had been the intent,' Sap? (Or perhaps this is yet another exception to the standard forumlae, since the intent is still present)

Anglers Reminded of Regulation Changes on Shared Waters with Louisiana
Changes go into effect on September 1, 2011
AUSTIN – Louisiana and Texas have taken a big step to share consistent recreational fishing regulations governing their bordering waters. The new regulations are scheduled to go into effect on Sept. 1, 2011. Biologists from the two states have agreed upon regulations that are biologically sound and consistent on both sides of the boundary.
The two states share waters along most of their common border, supporting excellent recreational fisheries and attracting thousands of anglers each year. The line between the two states follows the state line boundaries and old river channels, so anglers currently must abide by two sets of rules.
"Although we still have a few differences in regulations, these changes should make it much easier for anglers on both sides of border to keep track of bag and size limits," said Gary Saul, fisheries director for the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. "We hope this will result in less angler confusion and increased compliance."
The compromise regulations for Toledo Bend affect channel, blue and flathead catfish and black and white crappie. Regulations for Caddo Lake and the Sabine River deal with those species in addition to white, yellow, largemouth and spotted bass.
The new regulations can be found on the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department's Web site at http://tpwd.texas.gov/regulations/changes12.phtml#txla.

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. – The Saint Leo men's basketball team, coming off of a 15-day Christmas Break layoff, managed to shake off the rust and notch a 73-67 victory over host Palm Beach Atlantic University in non-conference action from south Florida on Wednesday evening.
The contest turned out to be more of a back-and-forth effort than Saint Leo (8-2) had hoped for with the hosts using 11 three-pointers to keep the game close. In a game that saw 14 lead changes and the Sailfish (1-8) holding a five point lead in the first half, it would be an 18-5 run midway through the second half that would slot the game away in favor of the Green and Gold.
Marcus Ruh shook off the rust faster than any other player on the court as he dropped in a game-high 26 points on 8-of-15 shooting and was one of three Saint Leo players in double figures. Joining Ruh were Shaun Adams and Jaylon Bell, both with 13 points on a night where the Lions shot 49.1 percent (26-of-53) from the field.
For the Sailfish, Christian Martinez led the team with 21 points as he dropped in five treys to keep the game close.
The Lions will now prepare for the first of seven consecutive Sunshine State Conference contests as Saint Leo welcomes Lynn University into the Bowman Center on Saturday. Tip-off is set for 4:00 p.m.

Internet, Email Force USPS to Cut Saturday First-Class Deliveries Starting August 1
Tiffany Kaiser
February 6, 2013 10:28 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
It will save USPS $2 billion annually
Many aspects of our lives have made a
digital transformation
over the last decade or so. We no longer rent physical movies from the video store; we watch them on Netflix or Hulu. We no longer get subscriptions for or pick up the daily newspaper; we read the news online. We don't run to the bank as often for daily finances; we jump on our smartphone, tablet or computer for online banking.
The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) is seeing these shifts in technology as well, but
can't seem to keep up
. Many letters, bills, etc. can now be sent electronically rather than through the mail. Hence, in an effort to save some serious money, USPS will no longer deliver mail on Saturdays starting August 1, 2013.
mail delivery
down to five days per week will save USPS about $2 billion annually. For fiscal 2012, USPS saw a net loss of $15.9 billion (three times the loss record one year previous).
While mail delivery is getting axed, USPS plans to continue package delivery on Saturdays since this particular area has seen a 14 percent increase since 2010. Mail will also still be delivered to P.O. boxes six days per week as well.
In addition, post offices will remain open on Saturdays to allow customers to drop mail/packages off, access post office boxes or buy postage stamps -- although hours will likely be cut.
USPS is expected to give an official announcement today without explicit congressional approval. Lawmakers have said this approval is necessary for a change like cutting Saturday mail delivery, but the USPS is arguing this claim.
As far as the American people go, USPS expects some opposition from those like rural communities that worry a change in scheduling could make low-cost deliveries of items like medication a thing of the past, and publishers who will have to adjust schedules with publication deadlines.
Just last month, it was reported that
USPS wanted to be more digital-friendly
in order to keep up with the times. The agency is working on a digital platform called MyPost, which will allow customers to log in and view all packages that they'll be receiving as well as those they've already received instead of searching several different sites that the packages may be coming from.
However, Paul Vogel, president of digital solutions at USPS, revealed that his office is like "a San Jose startup," with only 15 Android/Apple developers, consultants coming and going, one computer and his BlackBerry smartphone. Technological restrictions make upgrading hard to come by.
A few other major obstacles are legislation needed to get permission for new digital products, the USPS' huge instruction manual for just handful of current products (adding digital products and security certifications would turn that 1,500 page book into something unimaginable), and USPS' losses of nearly $16 billion last year led to legislative proposals to
keep making cuts
(hence, more digital tech may not be in the cards right now).

Belongings : Island inspired luxury goods
The website describes their selection as "relaxed sophistication, simple beautiful beach luxury," and I agree. I love it! I actually went by the showroom on E 79th street and the sales person was so nice. The showroom was so inspiring, an elegant island oasis in the middle of Manhattan. I bought some amazing milk glass balls, a piece of coral, and some scented beach glass.They gift wrapped everything on the spot... lovely!

First Marina Keegan award for playwriting to be given at Yale ceremony
A ceremony presenting the Marina Keegan Award for Excellence in Playwriting to Nicole Davis, its first recipient, will take place on Friday, April 26 at 5 p.m. in the library of Saybrook College, 242 Elm St.
The award honors Marina Keegan '12, the playwright, essayist, fiction writer, and activist, who tragically died in a car accident only days after she graduated with high honors from Yale College.
This event is open to the Yale community. Members of the news media wishing to attend should contact Ann-Marie Apicella by email or by phone 203-432-0532.
A celebration of Keegan's life and creative spirit, the event is timed to take place while many of her friends, notably in this year's graduating class, are still on campus. Her parents Tracy and Kevin Keegan, and three of her Yale teachers and mentors — Anne Fadiman, Donald Margulies, and Deb Margolin — will also offer remarks.
As a senior at Yale, Keegan, first gained national recognition for a column she wrote in DealBook on The New York Times website warning her fellow students to avoid the lure of investment bank recruiters.
Keegan wrote several plays. Her musical, "Independence," was chosen by the New York International Fringe festival for a full-scale production.
Another play by Keegan, "Utility Monster," will be performed May 25–June 22 at Wellfleet Harbor Actors Theater in Keegan's hometown on Cape Cod.
Keegan was to have taken a position on the editorial staff of The New Yorker. The magazine posthumously published her short story "Cold Pastoral," about a college student confronting the sudden death of her boyfriend.
Perhaps Keegan's most memorable work is "The Opposite of Loneliness," a piece she wrote for classmates on the eve of their graduation.
The event on Friday will feature readings from "Utility Monster," and from the play "23," by Davis.

On Thursday, Nokia (NOK) put in a pre-earnings announcement for a good quarter, which is scheduled to be fully reported later this month. The company reported selling 4.4 million Lumia smartphones, 2.2 million Symbian smartphones, and 9.3 million Asha smartphones. Sales of low-end feature phones came to about 70 million units.
The big positive in this news is that Lumia sales have climbed. In the second and third quarters, the company respectively sold just 2.9 million and 4 million of these phones. It's hard to get excited about the Symbian sales, as this is a dead and declining platform. The Asha smartphones aren't really smartphones, and they too will probably be gone within a few quarters.
So the excitement is all about 4.4 million Lumias. These helped Nokia "approach profitability" in their handset division.
Apple (AAPL), of course, has been selling about 20 million to 30 million iPhones each quarter for the past year. But investors have had low expectations for Nokia, so these preliminary results were good enough to send the stock up nearly 20% Thursday.
The news also buoyed shares of Research In Motion (RIMM), which rose about 4% Thursday. People are now starting to wonder how well the new BB10 phones will do upon release at the end of the month.
Despite the long wait for the device, the reviews of the BB10s have been solid so far. RIM has also announced that it will sell its QWERTY keyboard phone, along with a touch version. The company's chief marketing officer, Frank Boulben, has also said RIM will release at least another six versions of the BlackBerry later this year. These will presumably address the lower end of the market, which is critical for RIM, as the company is still doing well in many emerging-markets countries.
How many smartphones can RIM sell? Is 4.4 million -- what Nokia is achieving with the Lumias -- the magic number it should be shooting for?
In the last reported quarter, RIM sold 6 million to 7 million of its old BB7 phones -- a platform that is more than two years old. So it appears highly realistic to me that, right off the bat, carriers of the BB10 devices could see some very big restocking numbers, relative to Nokia. After all, the company will continue to sell its lower-end BB7s as it tries to massively push its installed base to upgrade to the BB10s.
It doesn't at all seem unrealistic to expect that we could see a doubling -- at least -- of smartphone shipments in the first full reported quarter after the BB10s ship (which won't be until June). Even 20 million phones is a possibility for that quarter.
At such volumes, RIM will be very profitable. Remember that analyst Tavis McCourt has said RIM only needs to sell 18 million phones in the whole year in order to break even? In all likelihood RIM could achieve that just by continuing to sell its dying BB7s.
Further, RIM is a company with $6 billion in market capitalization -- still less than half that of Nokia. So bigger handset-sales success will translate into bigger moves in the stock price, even amid concerns that services revenue from businesses will decline over time.
That is partly why RIM is holding up so well today, even though BMO Capital Markets downgraded the stock and there are reports of a service outage in Europe. Unless the company really screws up in its go-to market -- and it's hard to see that happening, given how many carriers are testing it and have likely given the company pre-orders -- it should shatter the sales that the Lumia has been able to achieve so far. That should lead to even bigger bumps than what we saw with Nokia as we get closer to the June earnings report.

About This Performance
Orango is an unfinished satirical opera by Shostakovich, sketched while he was writing Lady Macbeth of the Mtsensk District. He and his librettists conceived "a political lampoon against the bourgeois press," concerning a human-ape hybrid. Of the projected Prologue and three acts, only the 40-minute Prologue was completed, in piano vocal score, which was just discovered in 2006. The LA Phil takes great pride in presenting the world premiere of this lost work, newly orchestrated by English composer Gerard McBurney.

SAFETY campaigners are urging speeding drivers to slow down as they pass a busy high school.
West Worcestershire MP Harriett Baldwin is leading the calls for a "go slow" outside Pershore High School.
She has joined with pupils, parents, staff and local residents to help campaign for traffic calming measures near to the school, in Station Road, including a dedicated crossing for students.
There are concerns that an increase in vehicles using the road and the speeds at which some travel pose a "real hazard" to students' safety.
Mrs Baldwin said: "Speed kills and I am eager to get the message across to local drivers that they need to take care in this area before there is a serious incident."
Pershore Town Council and the Safer Roads partnership are working on a long-term solution to help reduce speeds and prevent accidents in the area, including using mobile speed warning signs.
Funding has also been made available to pay for a permanent crossing and Wychavon planners have approved an appropriate site.
But Mrs Baldwin said drivers must also play their part.
"I congratulate everyone on all the hard work that has been done by the school council, town council, Wychavon District Council, Worcestershire County Council and the Safer Roads Partnership on a long-term solution," she said. "But pupils want to get the message out now that you should kill your speed around their school in the short term too."
Pershore High School headteacher Clive Corbett said: "I am very concerned at the huge increase that there has been in the traffic flow on Station Road in recent years.
"The speeds at which vehicles proceed along in the vicinity of the school poses a real hazard to our students, whether they be pedestrians or cyclists.
"It is a situation that will only be exacerbated by future housing developments. I am most grateful to Harriett Baldwin for adding her support to the efforts of the school and youth council."

Astros' late homer throws Blue Jays for Loup
Reliever's first jack allowed since July 9 spoils Happ's fine start
HOUSTON -- Aaron Loup has garnered the reputation of being a groundball pitcher, but everything the Astros hit was in the air on Friday night.
Toronto's lefty reliever had trouble from the first pitch until he was pulled three batters into his outing. It's not all that often that Loup has a rough game but when he does, it rarely happens quite like this.
Loup's first pitch was the turning point as Gregorio Petit hit a solo homer over the left-field wall to overshadow another strong start by J.A. Happ in the Blue Jays' 3-1 loss at Minute Maid Park.
"When was the last time you've seen three balls barreled off of Loup in a row," manager John Gibbons rhetorically said after his club's winning streak was snapped at six games. "He's a groundball guy, but he didn't get any groundballs."
With the game tied at 1, Loup entered the game in the eighth inning. The first pitch he threw was a 92-mph fastball that got too much of the plate and Petit hit a line-drive to left for the first homer of his big league career.
Loup allowed another run in the eighth after Jose Altuve hit a double to the gap in left-center field, advanced to third on a stolen base and eventually scored on a sacrifice fly by Robbie Grossman. It was the first time Loup allowed a run since July 9 vs. the Angels, which also marked the only other time he surrendered a homer this season.
"I threw two pitches, the next thing you know, I give up a home run and a double," Loup said. "We've been playing great baseball, I owe it to the guys on the field behind me to run them down ... I guess it just wasn't my day. [We'll] get out there and just go get them tomorrow."
The relief appearance spoiled what was an otherwise impressive night on the mound for Toronto. Happ continued his recent run of success by allowing three hits and two walks, while striking out six en route to another quality start.
Happ's only real difficulty came with two outs in the fourth inning. He had retired 11 consecutive batters at that point, but then he allowed an infield single to Chris Carter and issued a four-pitch walk to Matt Dominguez.
Houston's Jesus Guzman made Happ pay for the momentary lapse with a bloop single to center field for the Astros' first run of the game.
That was the only run Happ allowed on the night. He has yielded three runs or fewer in four consecutive starts and has given up a total of four runs over 18 1/3 innings since the All-Star break. Happ battled some inconsistency earlier this season, but he has since become a pivotal member of the starting rotation.
"I feel strong, trying to get in some kind of groove out there and got some good results tonight, so I'll always take that," Happ said.
"I think the goal is to try to stay healthy and get out there. I felt like I could help contribute. Just trying to stay there and give this thing a good shot, these next two months."
Toronto got started on the right foot when Melky Cabrera and Jose Bautista singled in the first inning to put runners on the corners with one out. Dioner Navarro made it 1-0 with a sacrifice fly to left field.
Another golden opportunity was presented in the second when Danny Valencia doubled to put runners on second and third with none out. Toronto came up empty, though, as Munenori Kawasaki popped out, Ryan Goins struck out and Jose Reyes flied out to end the inning.
Astros starter Collin McHugh yielded the lone run, while scattering five hits and one walk over 6 1/3 innings with five strikeouts. Darin Downs and Jose Veras bridged the gap to closer Chad Qualls, who recorded his 12th save of the season.
"My command was a little bit off today," McHugh said. "I was actually talking to [catcher Carlos Corporan] about it. It kind of felt like smoke and mirrors at times. We had a good game plan. He was really good behind the plate pitching to my strengths ... A lot of credit goes to him and the staff for preparing us well. It was a battle today."
Toronto is now 11-4 and has yet to lose a series since the All-Star break. The Blue Jays have two more games remaining in Houston before heading home for series against the Orioles and Tigers.

WESTERN BROWARD COUNTY, Fla. - U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson went python hunting Thursday but returned empty handed.
Nelson participated in the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commissions' month-long "Python Challenge." Florida wildlife officials say 21 Burmese pythons have been killed so far in a public hunt for the invasive species in the Everglades.
It's unknown how many pythons live in the Everglades. Even experienced hunters have a hard time spotting the snakes in the swamplands.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission says more than 1,000 people registered for the state's monthlong "Python Challenge." The hunters may find more success if colder temperatures drive the snakes onto sunny surfaces.
The snakes killed since the contest began Saturday will be processed by the University of Florida. The state hopes to apply the data gleaned from the carcasses to management plans for the Everglades.
"They are devouring everything that Mother Nature intended to be in the Everglades," Nelson said prior to leaving.
Nelson returned to a boat ramp at Mile Marker 41 on Alligator Alley about 4 p.m. His office said the "pythons proved elusive in the warm weather."
"What we do is get near the tree islands, get out of the air boats, slog through the marsh grass-- by the way, which is very -- it's razor sharp," said Nelson. "The snakes were not there at the time we were there today."
"And it's just a question of time before one of them gets the endangered Florida panther," said Nelson.
Hunters paid $25 to sign up for the month-long event. Each also had to complete a safety course online. According to FWC, participants are coming from 17 different states to take part.
"If you don't have a trained eye for it -- even if you do like we do -- it's tough," said biologist Shawn Heflick.
Prizes include $1,000 for the longest python caught, and $1,500 for the most pythons killed.
Florida law prohibits possession or sale of the pythons for use as pets.
The competition ends Feb. 10.
