I live in the Caribbean, and in 1995 there was a very destructive hurricane named Luis (like my brother)... But I never heard of a Hurricane named Luisa :(..
:) My suggestion: HURRICANE LUISA
Hallie (pronounced like halle berry) would be a great hurricane name, it means sweet and caring which is ironic considering how destructive hurricanes actually are.
How name a Hurricane?
I know that people are asking for you to choose other hurricane names, but I have a one-of-a-kind name for you.
First of all, Matthew was my cousin, who passed away in January 2016. I was stunned to hear about hurricane Matthew, not long ago. Matt was a preacher who owned his own business and was well loved in his community.
Now, I am thinking that MY name would definitely be unique, Phoenicia (pronounced fun-ish-a, or my nickname Nicia). I have not heard of another with my name. At the very least, it is extremely rare. Hmm? Thank you for your time.
Why not have a Mackenzie hurricane it would be cool
Thank you for your hurricane information. Please continue to give the information about storms and hurricanes to the people of the U.S. who need to be prepared.
I think it should be Carley because my sister's birthday is in a few days. She is turning six and I think it would be great if she could have a hurricane named after her because she is the only one in my family who doesn't have a hurricane name. My name is Haley and the storm was on my birthday, August 11, and my sister's name is Alexis and hers happened two months exactly after her birthday. Anyways, my point is that I think that the new hurricane name should be Carley.
Because my 7 year old wants one with her name
Hi! My name is shelby. I Think the name shelby would be a great name for Hurricane or tropical storm. Have they used that name yet? If they haven't it would be a great name
Shilah, she is anything but quite.. and really packs a punch.
Shane, Makayla and Colten would be great names too!!
It would be nice that a storm after my daughter .her name is morgana that is her first name.her middle name is igrayne. Her name is the 16th century. Medieval Times.
Scheyenne would be a good name it different
Good morning. Just wanted to give you some ideas for names. I have 2 wonderful step sons who's mom passed away 4 years ago. The boys are now 11 and 9. It would be amazing for them to have a storm named after them. Their names are Amir and Najee. Thank you!
I live on the west coast. Most of the hurricanes may come from the lower area of the Pacific Ocean, I am not so sure about that, however, can you tell me if their have been a hurricane as destructive as Sandy or Katrina to hit the west coast? Also, with a name like Alice, I thought I would see it as a hurricane name. :D Thanks
Hi, Alice: Records do not indicate a tropical cyclone or hurricane in the Pacific as destructive as Sandy or Katrina, but of course this doesn't mean that there hasn't been one. There have actually been several hurricanes named Alice, in June 1954, December 1954 (named Alice prematurely, as it was thought that it would arrive in 1955), and July 1973. In those "old" days, each's year's hurricanes would be named from the same alphabetized list, which began with Alice. Nowadays, the used names have been retired, and a new list of entirely new names is created for each year (several years in advance). And allow us to say that with a much beloved mother-in-law named Alice, we totally agree that it's a very fitting name for a hurricane! Thanks for asking!
The word comes from the Taino language which is "huracán". It did not come from the continental native peoples or nations. The closest native tribes were more than likely those of early Florida who would have been likely descendants from the various tribes of the Caribbean region.
I know all of you are busy but could you name a hurricane after Dominic or Yvette that would be nice. Have a great day.
Good morning, is there any way that in the future you guts can name a tropical storm Keira??? That's would be awesome lol thanks
You should contact the National Hurricane Center and recommend this to them. :o)
Can u use the the name "ingrid"? IT IS AN AWESOME NAME!!!!!
How can a kid tell a hurricane is coming and how can I know that a hurricane is coming soon? Is there a way to save the crops in time?
Hi, Julieana: A hurricane is just a bigger, meaner version of a "normal" storm, so "normal" storm folklore indicators, such as leaves on trees being blown so that they turn up or over, would apply. The thing is, the effects of hurricanes are so much more drastic that it's always best during hurricane season (June 1 to Nov. 30 in the Atlantic) to keep up with local media for possible storm warnings. Also, the National Hurricane Center of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration website has the best warnings: www.nhc.noaa.gov/. The way to get crops out of the field in time is to get as much warning as possible and then use your best judgment.
Are there any hurricanes coming in Turks and Caicos in oct/nov 2014?
I find it completely hilarious that my sisters name is Paulette Renee' these 2 storms are going to be hell
I am planning a trip in OCT to NYC, NY, I currently live in FL. How will the weather be?? Any hurricanes or major storms approaching in OCT 2014
We are not forecasting hurricanes or major storms in October but that does not mean it might not happen.
Safe travels!
Do you know what the weather will be on 10/26? A great guesstimate would be fine. Hoping for an outdoor wedding.
There will be no storms hitting at this part of the month so look at the news and make sure that you see no storms coming your way. Right now I think you are fine as wine.
It would be great to see a hurricane named ERYNN. After my daughter! It would be fitting, as she is a bit of a mess at home! Her room looks like a hurricane went through it! Its a unique way to spell the name and have not seen it this way for a hurricane yet. ;o)
I know my name is spelt differently but alot of these names for storms are unique... it would be amazing to have a storm named after me... KADIE
I know my name is spelt differently but alot of these names for storms are unique... it would be amazing to have a storm named after me... KADIE

Hurricane Bethany should be next for letter B that is my girlfriends name .
I completely agree , my name is bethany and ive been waiting forever to see a storm bethany.
Hurricane CHYREISE !!!
Oh i was hoping to pick a name Kyra in 2015. its would be a blessing to after me and my granddaughter too.
Maybe in the future, there might a hurricane named after me or just named "Cody". I'll have to wait and see in the future.
The 2013-2014 winter has been cold and deadly. Last year Mercer County, NJ has 4.93" of snow and this year we're already over 50" with more in the forecast. I just read an article that this cold winter could mean we'll have a cooler summer. But, I was wondering if a winter such as this one has any impact on the hurricane season.
The winter weather doesn't impact the hurricane season. Hurricanes tend to originate over Africa or in the lower Caribbean. However, our meteorologist has predicted this for the summer: Hurricane season will get off to a slow start in June before becoming active in July and especially in September. Expect a major hurricane to make landfall on the central Gulf Coast in July, with several hurricanes and tropical storms threatening Florida and the Atlantic seaboard in September.
This forecast and other weather updates appear in the Almanac Monthly. For more information about that, go to Almanac.com/Monthly.
Thank you for the reply. Living in NJ I have become more mindful of hurricanes after Irene and Sandy. They inspired me to create what I call a "black out kit" with flashlights/lanterns/booklights, a battery-operated radio and clock, small battery operated fans, a first aid kit, games/puzzles/books, and other odds and ends. I also created one for my brother as a gift.
We have a Florida wedding scheduled in early September should we cancel
I have lived in Florida my whole life and your good. I've seen a couple storms go for a strange turn but if it did hit us it would only be a little rain. Most of the tropical storms that hit us are nothing compared to some of our normal everyday storms we get. As far as now goes, the storm isn't going to hit us. I do have to warn you though it's been horribly hot here. Congratulations to you and your bride!
I live in South Florida so I can tell you what it's like down here.
I like to learn about hurricanes
we are planning to visit Turks & Caicos in July End 2014. What do you thing the hurricane season will bring at that time/
Thanks you,
Sorry to disappoint, but we only predict the weather for U.S. and Canada.
Mass mayhem...It's forecasted to be an above average year. I'm out here in the Caribbean.
Why can't you name a Hurricane. Baron. Slugger . Donnybrook and native americans names
And will new orleans get snow
The Hawaii honeymoon is for 2014!!
Aruba is the best place for honeymoon. My wife and I was there for our honeymoon and it was great.
We are planning a honeymoon in Hawaii the last week of July and first week of August. We want to cruise the islands. What are the predicted and/or likely weather conditions during that period?
Thank you.
You can find our long-range forecasts in The 2014 Old Farmer's Almanac, now available in bookstores and at newsstands and also online at www.almanac.com/store
I am planning to spend the month of January 2014 near tampa florida what will the temperature be and a cruise for February 2-9,2014 for northern caribbean would you please let me if the weather will good for this cruise and for my first time spending more than a week in Florida
Thank you
Hi, Linda, The hurricane season is June through November so it won't affect your cruise. In terms of weather, we offer our long-range weather predictions in The 2014 Old Farmer's Almanac, now on sale in bookstores and on our Web site here: http://www.almanac.com/store/a...
My son is planning a wedding in the Dominican Republic in Sept 21 2014, I am worried about Hurricanes before and during that could destroy his day and put everyone in danger
Hi Carol, We only cover North America. In The 2014 Old Farmer's Almanac, September is predicted to be rainier and warmer than normal, with several hurricane threats in September. I'm sorry that it probably not comforting. Hurricanes are challenging to predict as there are many variables. For example, the experts at Colorado State and around the globe predicted a very active season this year and it was a bust. So, it's highly variable.
I got married in August 2001 in Caribbean and it was beautiful, hot nut gorgeous. Pray and check the weather channel.
Just realized it passed. How was it?

8 Gadgets Devoted Solely To Spreading Butter On Stuff

Got A Fitbit Or Other Gadget For Christmas? It's Time To Opt Out Of Mandatory Arbitration!
Customers have filed a class action suit against Fitbit, claiming that the company's Charge HR and Surge fitness bands don't accurately measure users' heart rate during vigorous exercise. We'll keep an eye on the lawsuit and let you know if it goes anywhere, but it probably won't, and that's what got our attention.

Should You Keep The Box For Your New Gadget? Maybe

Amazon Still Not Interested In Reuniting Lost Kindles With Owners
Two years ago, we tried to reunite a Kindle left behind on a plane with its owner, and we didn't succeed. The reader who found it didn't trust the airport lost and found, and Amazon wasn't any help. Even though Amazon knows full well who each Kindle belongs to, with their e-mail address and even their credit cards and billing addresses. That doesn't matter, though. When Steve called about a Kindle that he found, Amazon told him to throw it away. [More]
From Gadgets To Diners: How To Make (Or Order) The Perfect Egg Every Time
I recently poached my first egg; sounds simple enough. And yet the amount of time I spent looking up how to do it, fretting over the steps and stressing over my inevitable failure almost made the whole thing not worth it. But when I posted a photo of that sucker on social media, the hefty number of virtual back-slaps I received made it clear that I am not alone in my fear of screwing up eggs. [More]
Fitbit Force Is An Amazing Device, Except For My Contact Dermatitis
Between Christmas and the New Year, lots of Americans strapped on a shiny new Fitbit Force and started to scamper around.

Now many of them have taken off their wristbands, reporting a weird skin irritation near the charging port. [More]

More Nexus 4 Phones Plummet To The Ground, Smash Themselves
Google is always innovating. They've brought us the beginnings of a consumer fiber network, smart glasses, driverless cars, and even bringing donkeys back to life.

Or so our readers tell us.
Sorry, You Can't Buy Nexus Devices With Your $350 Google Play Store Credit
Michael's plan seemed like a really great idea at the time he hatched it. He wanted to make sure that he would have the money for a Nexus 4 set aside, so he purchased $350 worth of credit for the Google Play store. The phone's available for sale there, so this made perfect sense. Until the phone actually launched. When he could finally get through to place his order, he learned that Play Store credit specifically couldn't be used on Nexus devices. Oh, no.
Fitbit Doesn't Seem To Understand How Preorders Work
Andy was really excited about the new Fitbit One. He placed a pre-order back when the activity-tracking gadget was first announced, and waited patiently for the projected "early November" ship date. November began, and the new Fitbit began to show up on the shelves of virtual and real-life stores, but not in his mailbox. Why, he asks, does any random person wandering through Best Buy get their Fitbit before early orderers like him? [More]

A Redditor has a novel suggestion that solves this problem: you'll have time while sitting on the toilet, so leave the manuals to your new devices in there.

Sønderborg Harbor Masterplan
Gehry Partners, LLP
Sønderborg, Denmark
Last week Frank Gehry presented his first Masterplan in Northern Europe to the city of Sønderborg.
The Sønderborg Harbor Masterplan proposes to transform the
former industrial waterfront into a vibrant urban development by
creating a sense of density and activity, focused around an Urban
Square. The development extends along the waterfront and
incorporates landscape parks, mixed-use areas, residential and
office buildings, a hotel, recreation facilities, and cultural
The focal point of the revitalized urban waterfront is the four
buildings at the corners of the Urban Square. The Kunsthalle and
Cinema are located on the city side of the Urban Square to carry
the activity that connects the Urban Square with the historic city.
The Hotel and the office building are located at the water side of
the Urban Square to mediate between the smaller-scale historic
buildings of Sonderborg and the larger-scale hospital and
university complexes.
By concentrating the new development around the Urban Square, it allows for a lower-density distribution of the office and residential buildings. This approach maximizes open space for culture and recreation and allows the continuation of the existing landscape as an Urban Park along the waterfront.
The development is unified by a series of unique landscape spaces, creating a series of Urban Parks. These parks are linked by the Harborfront Promenade which extends the north end as a pedestrian bridge, completing the waterfront promenade and connecting both sides of the harbor.
When Gehry Partners approached the project in 2006 they immediately produced several schemes for the site that reflected the multiple ways to address the urban and architectural challenges.
Through a series of work sessions in Denmark and in Los Angeles
the project team distilled the various participants ideas and needs
into the final Masterplan.
The schemes were presented in the form of physical models, 3d computer models, and diagrams. The multiple options shown provoked discussions to assist the Harbor Company with refining their needs and goals.
Gehry Partners also worked closely with Landscape Architect
Melinda Taylor to establish an integrated urban and landscape
vocabulary that is at once ecological, functional, and animated,
and is conceived to meet the outdoor and recreational needs of
Sønderborg's current and future inhabitants.
The presentation exhibition will be on view at arcspace Gallery in Second Life.

If there was any doubt whether conservatives want Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) to run for president, that was banished Saturday night when he won the Values Voter Summit straw poll with 42 percent, giving him a double-digit advantage over his nearest competitors.
Cruz won the Family Research Council Action's contest -- often seen as an early indicator of which candidates would fare well in a GOP presidential primary -- while Ben Carson, a rising star in conservative circles, came in second, according to the group's news release. Both Carson and former GOP Pennsylvania senator Rick Santorum -- who ran for president in 2012 -- received 13 percent of the vote, though Carson had one more vote than Santorum. GOP Sens. Rand Paul (Ky.) and Marco Rubio (Fla.) came in fourth and fifth, respectively, with 6 percent and 5 percent of the vote.
Family Research Council Action president Tony Perkins said in a statement that the results show conservative activists are looking for someone willing to challenge President Obama and the Democratic Party. Cruz has led the fight to delay or defund the Affordable Care Act, which has led to the partial government shutdown but has failed to impede the rollout of the landmark health-care law.
"The Values Voter straw poll reveals what conservative, Republican-leaning voters are looking for in a potential candidate. Values voters are looking for those who will refuse to be bound by the 'can't mentality' of the establishment and will challenge the status quo," Perkins said. "In short, values voters, many of whom did not fully engage in the last election, are looking for a leader that will inspire them by challenging President Obama and speak clearly and directly to the challenges facing America."
Carson, a pediatric neurosurgeon who was recently hired to be a contributor at Fox News, has also attacked the health-care law known as Obamacare, comparing it during a Friday speech at the Values Voter summit to slavery.
"You know Obamacare is really I think the worst thing that has happened in this nation since slavery," said Carson, who is African American. "And it is in a way, it is slavery in a way, because it is making all of us subservient to the government, and it was never about health care. It was about control."
Carson won the vice presidential straw poll, with 21 percent of votes cast. Cruz came in second with 17 percent and Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) was third with 9 percent of the vote.

21-year-old faces impaired driving charges after accident
First-responders clean up after a crash on Jean-Talon St. sent a bystander to hospital in serious condition. (Cosmo Santamaria / CTV Montreal)

Published Sunday, November 11, 2012 2:26PM EST
MONTREAL—A 21-year-old man will face impaired driving charges after he smashed his SUV into a taxi on Jean-Talon St. in Villeray early Sunday morning.
According to Montreal police, the force of the impact caused the taxi to roll forward and hit a man who had just paid his fare and hopped out. That man is now in hospital in serious but stable condition.
The accident took place just before 4:50 a.m. at the corner of Jean-Talon St. and Normanville St. The intersection was closed until just before noon as crime scene investigators were on the scene.
According to Montreal police spokeswoman Anie Lemieux, the driver was arrested and failed a breathalyzer test.

Review Summary
- Excellent location on 900 feet of pristine beach
- Four assorted swimming pools (including one adults-only)
- Full-service spa and beauty salon
- Large array of fitness-oriented activities, plus large fitness center
- Theater with live shows
- Free use of kayaks, boogie boards, catamarans, and bicycles
- 4 tennis courts with night lights
- Extensive kids' and teens' programs
- Wi-Fi for a daily fee
- Guest rooms and suites in the older section feel worn
- Private VIP Beach Club is reserved for guests of the sister property
- Some balconies feature cheap plastic furniture
Bottom Line
The 495-room Marival mega-resort takes the "all" in all-inclusive seriously. Just about every imaginable recreational activity is available here -- along with the usual pools, kayaks and endless beverages, this hotel has bicycles, a climbing tower, mini-golf, a basketball court, catamarans, beach volleyball, cooking and Spanish lessons, and more. There are multiple dining options, rooms ranging from standard guest rooms up to three-bedroom suites, and more than 900 feet of Nuevo Vallarta beachfront that stretches for miles in both directions. Some rooms in the older buildings of the property, though, are in definite need of an update. And the property itself feels less luxurious (though is more affordable) than its sister property, Marival Residences, just a half mile away.

Seven announced on Monday it would scrap Today Tonight to make way for a full hour of news, following Nine which has enjoyed ratings success with its move.
"It's not a financial decision. It's giving the audience what they want," Seven chief executive
"There has just been an explosion in the availability of news and pictures and I think the audience's appetite for news has matched that explosion.
"Live news is going to be critical to the future of free-to-air television."
'Tough calls when we're going well'
The transition will take place in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, while Today Tonight will continue to be aired in Adelaide and Perth.
Since making the switch Nine News has averaged 1.1 million metropolitan viewers between 6.30pm and 7pm, a lift of 15 per cent compared with the corresponding time-slot last year. Nine's 7pm to 7.30pm audience has grown by 41 per cent compared with last year with A Current Affair in the time slot.
Shows like Today Tonight and A Current Affair cost about $20 million a year to produce. Nine is expected to spend about $5 million more a year to extend its news bulletin. So while the move could save Seven millions of dollars, the company insists all staff working on the East Coast editions of Today Tonight will keep their jobs and contribute to the extended 6pm news bulletin, as well as Adelaide and Perth editions of the current affairs program.
"The news-breaking capability of Today Tonight will be incorporated into Seven news," Mr Worner said.
"There were two big exclusive stories on Today Tonight last week, both of which rated extremely well . . . neither of those stories would have been out of place on a one-hour news bulletin."
Today Tonight rated strongly last week though the show's average metropolitan audience fell 6.9 per cent in 2013, compared with the previous year.
Mr Worner pointed out that Seven had axed hit program Packed to the Rafters when it was still enjoying a huge audience. "We have a history of making tough calls when we're going well," he said. "We make calls based on what we think is going to happen in the future."
Format change's long lead-up
It is understood the decision to ditch Today Tonight this week was made over the weekend, although discussions about the merits of a one-hour bulletin had been taking place for more than a year.
Insiders at Nine say a one-hour bulletin was being talked about as far back as the early 1990s, when
Audience sizes have been broadly consistent since 2001 when Seven had an average of 1.2 million metropolitan viewers for its 6pm news bulletin, which has fallen to 1.15 million. In the same time Australia's population has grown by about 4.5 million.
In recent years the effectiveness of overseas programs has waned – partly because they can be downloaded from the internet – leaving networks to focus more on original shows and live events, including news, which cannot easily be watched at other times.
Speculation that Seven would follow Nine down the path of a one-hour bulletin had been denied by the commercial free-to-air broadcaster as recently as last week.
"We're experimenting in the hour as Nine is, but we're not going to do a one-hour news [program]," said Seven director of programming

Wherever he is, Steve Harvey -- who appears on the cover of ESSENCE's January issue, and is promoting his new book, "Straight Talk, No Chaser" -- is constantly praising his lovely wife, Marjorie. ESSENCE.com chatted with her to discuss their relationship. ESSENCE.com: What was Steve Harvey like back in 1986? MARJORIE HARVEY: Ambitious. Steve was always a sweetheart -- he was a sweetheart then. Steve just gets a bad rap sometimes. He had a lot of people that just mistreated him, but he was such a sweetheart. ...He's got a heart of gold and it would just break my heart to see those that would mistreat him and take advantage of him, but we have to go through it. It's one of those things, you have to accept the good with the bad. ESSENCE.com: Did you and Steve keep in touch over the years? HARVEY: Not as much as we would have liked. A lot of things that I knew about Steve, I got a chance to read about and see on television. We were friends. We dated years ago and I think it was the long distance more than anything with Steve and I [that made us go] our separate ways. Nothing happened. He didn't break my heart. I didn't break his heart. It just was a long distance relationship and someone would have had to make a decision back then. No one made a move. But it didn't mean we didn't care, it's just sometimes life gets in the way. Obviously, it wasn't the perfect timing or it would have happened. We sometimes kick ourselves now because we're so perfect for each other. If only we had just done something about it back then, but I have a more seasoned Steve now -- a man that knows what he wants, is confident in his own skin, and it's just a beautiful relationship now. ESSENCE.com: What was it that had you over the moon for Steve? HARVEY: I was over the moon for Steve when I first met him, so to trust my heart and go back to the man that I once loved was really easy. With Steve, I could relax because I knew this wasn't someone that had broken my heart so I could trust him. He knew that he could trust me with his heart and trust is a big thing. It made it a lot easier for he and I to just move past the preliminaries and just to get to know each other again. ESSENCE.com: He talks about how he had to "man up" to meet you where you were. Were you confident that if you put your food down he would be the man that you wanted him to be? HARVEY: I think the man that he is has always been in Steve and I don't really consider it manning up. He has always been a man. I just looked at it as though I had a set of standards and I knew what I wanted for my life and we were both in love with each other so if this is the direction that we both want to go in, then let's go. Getting up and leaving had nothing to do with what he was going to do. It had only to do with what I wanted and what I would not tolerate. I didn't look at it as though he was going to be wrong if he didn't want what I wanted. I just knew whatever it is that God had for me, God is going to bless me with it and the same for him. I got the benefit of marrying my best friend. ESSENCE.com: What type of a husband and father is Steve? What's your life like together? HARVEY: I wish every woman can find a soulmate like I've been blessed to find. This is really my best friend. I can talk to my husband about any and every thing; he can talk to me about any and every thing. We complement each other and we bring out the best in each other so it's just a beautiful relationship all the way around. We laugh together. I love his sense of humor. For my children, I only wish that my sons -- all three of them -- can be the man that their father is and for my daughters I wish for them the same thing that I finally found and that's a man just like my father.

It took decades before the case against tobacco could be made in the face of hired contrarian scientists, but that only affected the individuals who chose to smoke and those who had to live with them. The rising waters that hit us this time might well be back and they are the true danger that threatens the country and indeed the rest of the world.
So sorry to hear of your neighbors' losses as well as your own.
Thanks. I'll admit it's been a grind. But still thankful that for me it wasn't worse. What others are facing is heartbreaking.
Now, we are starting to see conceptual designs of ocean barriers to protect NYC. A whole boatload of money needed.

Probably very few. Many are claiming they want to rebuild. "It's my home!" But no one is saying they are making preparations for further storms. A few do want FEMA to purchase their homes.
I wonder how they will insure them after this? Insurance companies are leaving in droves except Lloyd's of London.

Pear Pecan Toasts
Slices of Bartlett pear and a tangy Roquefort-cheese mixture top toasted white sandwich bread. Cutting the bread into fingers makes each the perfect size to hold the fruit.
- Servings: 12
Source: Martha Stewart Living, December/January 1999
- 10 ounces Roquefort cheese
- 5 tablespoons heavy cream
- 15 slices white sandwich bread, crusts removed
- 2 Bartlett pears, thinly sliced into wedges
- 1/3 cup pecan halves, thinly sliced crosswise
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a small bowl, combine cheese and heavy cream. Using a fork or wooden spoon, combine until mixture is soft enough to spread but not too runny; set aside.
Cut bread in half crosswise, making fingers that are about 3 by 1 1/2 inches. Transfer bread fingers to a baking sheet; toast in oven until light golden on each side, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven.
Spread 1 heaping teaspoon cheese mixture on each bread finger. Top with a pear slice; garnish with pecan slices. Serve at room temperature.

SAN MARCOS, TEXAS — The Texas State University System Board of Regents has approved preliminary plans for the first phase of construction of the Texas Rivers Center at San Marcos Springs.
Phase I of the project includes renovation of the former Inn at Aquarena Springs to office space and demolition of some former Aquarena Springs theme park facilities.
The plans were prepared in partnership by the architectural firms Lake Flato and Graeber, Simmons and Cowan. The firms were authorized by the regents to develop detailed plans and bidding specifications with a total project cost for Phase I not to exceed $3.289 million.
The Texas Rivers Center at San Marcos Springs is a joint project of Southwest Texas State University and Texas Parks and Wildlife. It involves transforming the former Aquarena Springs theme park into an educational and research center designed to inform the public about the importance of water resources and how those resources work as a system.
Meeting Thursday and Friday (May 9 and 10) on the SWT campus, the regents also authorized the university to prepare a special legislative appropriation request for a permanent facility for the North Austin-Williamson County Multi Institution Teaching Center.
The MITC is a consortium of SWT and other Austin area colleges and universities that provides college coursework in the North Austin and Williamson County area. It currently offers classes in various locations, including on high school campuses in the area.
A team of university and TSUS officials has reviewed several proposals from the Travis and Williamson county real estate development communities for locations for a permanent MITC campus.
In other SWT related business, the board:
The TSUS Board of Regents governs the following eight components: Angelo State University in San Angelo, Lamar University in Beaumont, Lamar State College-Port Arthur, Lamar State College-Orange, Lamar Institute of Technology in Beaumont, Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, SWT and Sul Ross State University in Alpine, including the Rio Grande College with campuses in Del Rio, Eagle Pass and Uvalde.
Members of the nine-member board are Dionicio "Don" Flores of El Paso, chair; John P. Hageman of Austin, vice chair; Kent Adams of Beaumont; Patricia Diaz Dennis of San Antonio; Alan W. Dreeben of Schertz; James A. "Jimmy" Hayley of Texas City; Nancy R. Neal of Lubbock; Pollyanna A. Stephens of San Angelo; and James L. Sweatt III of DeSoto. Chancellor Lamar Urbanovsky manages the system office in Austin.

One of the most important things you can do for your finances is to talk to a potential partner about their situation. If you are going to combine households and finances, you need to know what you're getting into. But how much should you know? And when should you know it?
Here are some things to consider as you start to delve into your partner's finances:
How Serious is the Relationship?
According to a recent COUNTRY Financial report, 29 percent of Americans think it's ok to start talking about money at the outset of the relationship, while 31 percent say that you should wait until you've been dating for at least three months.
For about 60 percent of Americans, it appears that talking about money should take place early on in the relationship. Of course, this doesn't mean that you immediate begin revealing credit scores and going into minute details. But it is a good idea to get an idea of how a potential partner views money, and start getting a general idea of how his or her financial situation stands.
You can get into more details as the relationship progresses. By the time you are engaged, however, you should probably have a pretty good idea of exactly what issues, if any, plague your potential partner's finances — and they should know about yours. I really can't speak in great detail to the progression, though. I met my husband at the end of September 2001 and we were married by the end of December 2001. Our entire pre-marriage relationship encompassed the three months the most Americans say you should start discussing money. But we were honest about things before tying the knot.
As your relationship progresses in seriousness, it's important that you share more detail about your financial situations.
What Should You Talk About?
While it might not be necessary to go into everything early on, it is probably a good idea to gradually introduce increasingly thorny topics. By the time you're engaged, you should have a good handle on each other's finances. Many Americans feel as though they are well-versed in their partners' debts. Indeed, 72 percent of Americans in relationships say they know how much debt their significant other has, according to the COUNTRY Financial survey.
However, things get a little less definite depending on the level of the relationship. Eighty-one percent of married couples say they know about the other person's debt. However, it drops off to 54 percent for engaged couples. This is a problem if you are considering marriage. It would be good for engaged couples to be at least on par with married couples — unless there is a plan to keep finances completely separate.
It's a good idea to talk about everything, from your philosophy on money to what you want to save up for to how much debt you have (and what kind it is) to how much you make before you decide to combine finances.
Keeping it Separate
If you plan to keep your finances completely separate, though, it might not matter if you disclose information about your money. While you should still have a general idea of what's happening with your partner's finances, and you should share what's happening with yours, the details — such as exactly how much debt is involved — might not be as important. As long as you know that your partner can hold up his or her end of the deal by paying his or her allotment of the household expenses, it's probably not important to know, to the dollar, how much debt is involved, or where all the money is going.
Combining finances, though, requires much more disclosure. If you decide to combine finances, then you should be prepared to share everything, and get ready to compromise on the way you spend and save.
What do you think? When should you talk about money with a potential partner? How much do you and your partner know about each other's finances?

Wild moves from Mat Olson–peep this one above.
Mat put in a lot of work into this video, and he's also one of the most unrated shredders. Mat did a lot of things he says he wouldn't think of or even consider doing in this video, but they got done. I had the privilege of pressing the record button and watching firsthand of Mat killing it. We had to cut the video short, because of the hospital visit, but i'm happy with the outcome of it. I hope y'all enjoy watching Mat ride as much as i did hanging out and taking him to the ER. Cheers Mat!

Yesterday I finished reading Language Evolution by Morten H. Christiansen and Simon Kirby. The book contains 17 chapters written by scholars from a range of fields, including archaeology, biology, cognitive science, linguistics, neuroscience and psychology, and discusses the latest theories and current controversies in the field of language origins and evolution.
It's very interesting and I'd certainly recommend it. However, quite a few of the chapters contradict previous ones or seek to prove them wrong, and by the time I'd finished it, I wasn't at all sure which of many theories to believe.
They're definitely a lot more sophisticated than the old bow-wow, ding-dong and yo-he-ho theories, which suggest that we got language by imitating animal noises or other natural sounds; that language began as instinctive responses to stimuli; or that it began as a way to facilitate cooperative labour.

SAN JOSE, Calif., Feb. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- The Coalition for Pulmonary Fibrosis (CPF) today announced a gift to the University of Chicago that will go to help further idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) research. The gift has been made in the amount of $43,000 and is the result of funds raised at its inaugural B.I.G. (Breathing is Glorious!) Ball held in Chicago, Ill. in partnership with the University of Chicago on October 21, 2005.
As a member of an NIH designated clinical research network for the study of IPF, the University of Chicago is using the funds to aid the establishment of a new study of the "Natural History of Interstitial Lung Diseases and IPF," a study that has been approved by the University's institutional review board (IRB) to begin enrolling subjects from the Interstitial Lung Disease Clinic. The study aims to better describe the "phenotypic" expression of interstitial lung diseases, and specifically IPF. Following patients over time will allow investigators to track the natural history of these diseases, with special attention focused on: assessment of quality of life (QOL) questionnaires as predictors of physiological changes; assessment of response to various therapies; and surrogate physiological markers of mortality. The study will also assess if blood samples for later genetic analysis and genomics provide insight into the polymorphisms related to the etiology and pathology of the lung damage caused by IPF.
Patients will also be screened for participation in new studies that become available. This information will help identify trends and hopefully lead to a better understanding of the disease progression, treatment options and outcomes.
"The CPF's partnership with the University of Chicago clearly advances our mission of raising awareness about IPF and supporting & funding emerging approaches to understanding the disease," said Mark A. Shreve, chief executive officer of the CPF. "Through this fundraising effort we were able to provide an avenue for donors to support their local medical center, while at the same time supporting the national programs & services of the CPF. This fundraising model continues to demonstrate that we can fuel new efforts to help all those affected by IPF."
Dr. Imre Noth, Assistant Professor of Medicine, and the University of Chicago have also established a consortium of investigators from Northwestern University and the University of Illinois at Chicago to advance efforts to improve standards of care for the treatment of IPF in the metropolitan Chicago area.
Specifically, support from CPF will be used to recruit a data coordinator and acquire the software resources to help manage the data collected through the consortium.
"With the help of generous donors and the CPF, the regular and consistent funding of this project over time will lead to marked improvements in how we prevent, diagnosis and treat IPF," said Imre Noth, MD, Assistant Professor of Medicine, University of Chicago.
The CPF and the University of Chicago will be hosting the 2nd Annual B.I.G. Ball on October 21, 2006 at the Renaissance Hotel in Chicago with the goal to raise $200,000. The University of Chicago will continue to use these funds to support new and existing studies in IPF to determine innovative targets for therapy and assist in earlier diagnosis. For more information, visit http://www.coalitionforpf.org or call the CPF at 1-888-222-8541.
About Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
IPF is a lung disorder characterized by a progressive scarring -- known as fibrosis -- and deterioration of the lungs, which slowly robs its victims of their ability to breathe. Approximately 83,000 Americans suffer from IPF, and there is currently no known cause or cure. An estimated 31,000 new cases are diagnosed each year. IPF is difficult to diagnose, and an estimated two-thirds of patients die within five years of diagnosis.
About the Coalition for Pulmonary Fibrosis
The Coalition for Pulmonary Fibrosis (CPF) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, founded in 2001 to further education, patient support and research efforts for interstitial lung disease, and specifically pulmonary fibrosis. The CPF is governed by the nation's leading pulmonologists, individuals affected by pulmonary fibrosis, medical research professionals and advocacy organizations. With more than 9,000 members nationwide, the CPF is the largest nonprofit organization in the country dedicated to helping those with pulmonary fibrosis. The CPF's nonprofit partners include the Caring Voice Coalition, the Genetic Alliance, the Mary D. Harris Memorial Foundation, the National Coalition of Autoimmune Patient Groups, the National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD), The Pulmonary Paper, the Second Wind Lung Transplant Association, and more than 30 leading medical and research centers nationwide.

WASHINGTON (Jul. 26)
The State Department said today that the U.S. is continuing discussions at the United Nations to solve the dispute over the decision to employ an expanded United Nations Truce Supervisory Organization (UNTSO) force to replace the United Nations Emergency Force (UNEF) in Sinai. The Department's chief spokesman, Hodding Carter told reporters that he did not foresee any top level meetings on the issue which would take Secretary of State Cyrus Vance or special Presidential envoy Robert Strauss to the Middle East at this time.
The UNEF mandate expired at midnight Tuesday and its replacement by UNTSO was agreed to by the UN Security Council over strenuous protests by Israel. Carter said he has seen estimates ranging from 250-800 men to make up the reconstituted UNTSO force plus additional equipment needed for transport and rapid movement in the region.
In another development, Carter confirmed today that the U.S. has agreed to sell Jordan up to 300 M-60 A-3 tanks. He said they would be sold to replace, on a one-to-one basis, Jordan's old N-48 tanks which it is now phasing out. A U.S. official stated that Jordan would probably receive a total of about 500 tanks from the U.S. and some from Britain which has agreed to sell it approximately 275 Chieftain tanks.
The official said the U.S. decision to sell the tanks to Jordan was made with certain military, political and economic considerations in mind as well as the friendly relationship with Jordan that is valued by the U.S. He said the U.S. feels that the balance with other countries in the area will thus be maintained, and, that as Israel, Egypt, the Palestinians, the West Bank and Gaza move into the peace process the value of helping other Mideast countries with their needs will become apparent.

SanDisk is now shipping its G3 solid state drive product to retailers in the United States, opening the door for further SSD adoption.
The SanDisk G3 SSD is promoted as a "compelling alternative to a 7,200 RPM HDD" with two different storage capacities. The drive is available with 60GB or 120GB storage, and features 220MB/s read and 120MB/s write speeds.
"Our rugged drive enables a superior customer experience by delivering extended endurance and fast performance in a resilient SSD design," said SanDisk VP of retail product marketing, in a statement.
The drive ships with SanDisk's ExtremeFFS flash management system and can support up to 80 terabytes of data written to it.
MSRP is $229.99 for the 60GB and $399.99 for the 120GB model, with retailers expected to begin offering the drives soon.
SanDisk, known for its flash-based storage products, has been a strong supporter of SSD. The company has made numerous SSD announcements, and its G3 line appears to be a rugged version of a normal SSD drive. Ideally, a company using the product will be able to reduce maintenance costs as the drives are able to withstand more than regular HDDs.
SSDs have remained a niche product for a small number of consumers, but their usage continues to increase in popularity. Sony introduced a quad-SSD notebook, while Super Talent debuted its SandForce line of SSD products. Seagate also entered the SSD market and will work with LSI on a new line of PCIe SSD products.

Hiring professional or support staff is a huge challenge for
most attorneys. No one wants to increase their overhead
unnecessarily, and the risks of making a "bad" hire are
significant. But hiring the "right" paralegal, legal secretary or
associate can have a very positive impact on your practice. Good
support staff and associates can help you leverage your time so
that you are freed up to spend time on higher value work and
The challenge, of course, is deciding whether someone is "right"
for the job.
A good starting place is to come up with a list of skills that
are necessary to be successful in the position. A good ending place
is to carefully check references (more on that in future tips). But
how do you know whether someone will be successful at your firm? Is
it enough to know the individual has done the work before and done
it successfully?
If you work in a small firm, do not overlook the importance of
fit and attitude when you are making your hires. Sometimes, this
may mean overlooking a skills gap. Someone can learn the latest
version of Microsoft Word or your idiosyncratic docketing system.
But teaching someone to show up at work on time, be careful and
apply some level of creativity to their job is a much taller
A careful reference check can help you get a sense of whether
someone truly is the take charge employee that they say they are
and whether they do bring some creativity to their job (if that is
what you need).
When you interview candidates, ask them to tell stories which
give examples of the intangible skills you believe are important.
When you check references, make sure to ask for individuals who
have firsthand experience in working with the potential employee.
Ask open-ended questions and get the reference to tell stories
about how the employee performed in particular situations.
Be willing to overlook skills gaps if the missing skills are
tangible skills that can be picked up in a relatively short period
of time. Of course if you expect your associate to walk in on day
one and handle real estate closings, make sure that the associate
has that experience. But if some of the skills you laid out in your
job description are merely "nice to have," do not overlook
candidates who will do much more for your practice in the medium
and long run even though they may have to learn a few things when
they start.

Beef and Mushrooms in Red Wine Sauce
Recipe by The Flying Chef
This is a great hearty, warming stew ideal for the coming winter months. When the weather starts to get cold I love nothing more than stews and casseroles whether beef, chicken or fish they make great comfort food. I served mine with broccoli florets as we are trying to eat lower carb in the evening.
Top Review by ImPat
I went down JustJanS's path but for us it was still way too salty (except to the DM - don't think anything could be too salty for her) other than that it was beautifully tender and full of flavour and very rich and with mashed potatoe and steamed brocolli, carrot and cauliflower I think I really had enough meat to feed 6 - DH now has some for shift work meals. Next time I think I will go with a low salt beef stock (in place of the water) and then thicken with cornflour (the Bisto - yes I was able to purchase Bisto - thickened it almost instantly to the point I had to add 1 cup of hot water to thin it down to incorporate the mushrooms and shallots - I had quartered to shallots to try and keep them large so the DH could pick out due to his allergy to onion, think I will stick with small brown onions and cut in large pieces to overcome this, sorry but don't think the shallots are worth the extra cost in this case). Thank you The Flying Chef, made for Edition 7 - Make My Recipe.

A decision handed down Wednesday by the nation's highest court could impact the outcome of future elections in East Tennessee.
The Supreme Court ruled donors should be allowed to donate as much money as they want to during a political campaign season.
Previously, they could only donate up to $123,000.
Donors will still be restricted on how much they can give an individual campaign. That amount cannot exceed $2,600.
More Information: Check campaign contributions for state candidates
Maryville College political science professor Dr. Mark O'Gorman said the ruling could be a game changer.
"If nothing else, it allows the big donor to no longer have to pick and choose [between candidates]," he said.
More Information: Check campaign contributions for federal candidates
He added the ruling could be a good thing for Tennesseans who believe giving to campaigns is a form of free speech.
O'Gorman said a person may dislike the ruling, if their against political action committees or "PACs". In recent years, those outside groups have spent an increasing amount of money advertising on the behalf of candidates and issues.
"This ruling allows more money to go to those campaigns and people who are concerned about their influence on politics," he said. "They're concerned it's going to be difficult to keep track of them."
Previous Story: Supreme Court lifts ban on aggregate campaign donations
However, some feel the ruling will not have that big of an impact, including former Knoxville Vice-Mayor Joe Bailey who worked on multiple presidential campaigns including one for former President Ronald Reagan.
"Those wealthy individuals that have the resources have always had the channels, the avenues to give and so this is just going to allow individuals to give directly," he said. "It could just offer transparency to the process."

Madeline RModel Female New York, New York, US
Mayhem # 2785478
About MeMy name is Madeline Rivera and I AM a model! Ok, so I've just started out but I must say that I have always had a passion for it. I love the fact that modeling allows an individual to unleash their own artistic vision and portray a character for the viewer. I respect all artists/photographer's right to expression, and enjoy the fact that I'm given the opportunity to be a part of that vision. I consider it to be an honor. I am a person who also loves to express myself; whether it is through my love of dance or drawing, I feel that it gives me an outlet to just be me. Since having my first in studio photo shoot last month in August 2012, I've been looking to work with other talented individuals. I take great interest in couture, fashion modeling, and runway modeling; however I am open to other styles of modeling. I'd like to connect with industry professionals and amateurs like me, to expand my career and knowledge of the fashion, modeling and visual art world and I couldn't think of a better place to start than Model Mayhem. I can be contacted via email, please message me for contact address.

PHILADELPHIA – Imagine that you are shopping for a high-performance car, but that you are not allowed to look under the hood. What's inside is a secret. Furthermore, you cannot find out how similar vehicles have performed, because there are none. Finally, the car carries no warranty.
The same logic applies to hedge funds: investors are typically not allowed to know how they work, and no warranties are offered. Moreover, hedge fund managers can easily "fake" high performance without getting caught.
To see how high performance can be faked, consider a fairly rare event, such as the S&P 500 falling by more than 20% in the coming year. Such events are commonly priced in the derivatives market, which puts the price for the S&P event at ten cents on the dollar. An option costs ten cents now and pays $1 if the event occurs by the end of the year, but nothing if it does not.
Enter Oz, who holds a doctorate in physics. He has no investment talent, but he knows about probabilities, and is running a hedge fund worth $100 million. He decides to sell options on the S&P event. In order to meet his obligations to the option holders if it occurs, he parks the $100 million in one-year US Treasury bills yielding 4%. He then sells 100 million covered options, which fetch ten cents on the dollar and thus net $10 million. He parks this $10 million in Treasury bills, too, and sells another 10 million options. This nets him another $1 million, which he uses to cover expenses.

It's just a lightweight, simple sweater -- red on red. They call it suburban, I don't understand, but I like it.
I mean, I know it's sort of corny. I love bike though. And I love hoodies more. So, I think this is a practical way to tout something i love, while wearing something I'm obsessed with.
From the always affordable RVCA, the this descending striped hoodie works perfectly as a summer sweatshirt.

Henry admits to overspending
Liverpool owner John W Henry concedes he may have overspent on some players, but believes it was important to put down a marker.
By Chris Burton
Last Updated: 13/10/11 5:29pm
Liverpool owner John W Henry concedes he may have overspent on some players, but believes it was important to put down a marker.
Since completing a takeover at Anfield in October 2010, the Fenway Sports Group have pumped £110.5million into the pursuit of fresh faces.
The likes of Andy Carroll, Luis Suarez, Jordan Henderson and Stewart Downing have been snapped up for big money, with the Reds aware of the need to spend in order to compete.
Liverpool are not FSG's sole sporting enterprise either, with £191m in new payroll commitments taken on with the Boston Red Sox at the start of the current baseball season.
Henry believes building for the future on both sides of the Atlantic will have long-term benefits and is surprised to have seen the considerable investment draw criticism from some quarters.
"There was a lot of criticism in Boston that we weren't going to spend money on the Red Sox after we did the LFC transaction," Henry told the Guardian.
"We spent something like $300m in the off-season in Boston, and then there was the fear we wouldn't spend in Liverpool.
"It is really surprising, ironic, to be now accused of overspending. Usually owners are accused of the opposite.
"Hopefully the fans of both clubs will eventually see what we see clearly - that there is nothing to fear from the existence of the other club and that Fenway Sports Group is much stronger financially because of Boston and Liverpool."
Pressed on whether he felt some of his acquisitions were yet to provide full value for money, Henry said: "Choosing players in any sport is an imperfect science. We certainly have been guilty of overspending on some players, and that can be tied to an analytical approach that hasn't worked well enough."
As FSG get set to celebrate their first anniversary at the Anfield helm, Henry has also revealed that he initially had reservations about bringing Kop legend Kenny Dalglish back to the club.
Roy Hodgson was at the helm at the time of the takeover and Henry admits he was sceptical about re-appointing a man who had been out of management for 11 years.
"Kenny is certainly charismatic and beloved by the fans," he added.
"I wasn't convinced when we arrived that Kenny should be back managing and I wanted things to work with the manager we inherited. But the fans knew much more than I did. It took me a while to get up to speed. Then Ian Ayre (whom FSG appointed as managing director) was a catalyst.
"(Director of football) Damien (Comolli) was a gamble. Kenny was a gamble. But they were both calculated gambles.
"They both have the advantage of being passionate about their work and are both very clever. We didn't feel we had a lot of time to wait, and we hope things turned around."


text: INDIANAPOLIS – The Cowboys are locked in with DeMarco Murray as their No. 1 running back. Executive vice president Stephen Jones said the team doesn't have a No. 2 back on the roster. "In this league I think you'd like to have more than one back," Jones said. "Obviously we love DeMarco, but you also have to look he's not been healthy yet in terms of a full season. I think we need a back. We like (Lance) Dunbar and (Phillip) Tanner but I think they're more third backs, not second backs." http://espn.go.com/blog/dallas/cowboys/post/_/id/4705859/cowboys-will-be-in-rb-market

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - A Westside woman robbed in a parking early Sunday morning says she thought she was going to die.
The woman says the men slit her throat and took her wallet, but she fought back using pepper spray. Fortunately, the two robbers were only armed with a butter knife, so her injuries were not severe.
"I thought they were going to cut my head off," said the woman, whose name is not being used because the robbers are still on the loose.
She said she was headed through a strip-mall parking lot toward the Krystal's drive-through on 103rd Street when two men blocked her car. One of them ran over to open her door.
"I'm trying to pull the door back. He jerked it really hard and I went out the door and fell right there at his leg," she told Channel 4's Jim Piggott. "I looked up at him to get a picture of his face and I had my pepper spray on me, and as I looked up, that is when I had my throat slit from ear to ear. And I was scared as anything, but I was able to pepper spray him."
One of them grabbed her wallet, but they ran off.
After watching Channel 4's interview with the victim, crime expert Ken Jefferson said she forgot to do one very important thing.
"You got to always remember to lock your door once you get in the car because that is the first place someone is going to go: to your driver's side and pull the door open and pull you out," Jefferson said.
But Jefferson applauded her being willing to fight back.
"She had pepper spray and had been slightly cut and bruised, but she still fought back," Jefferson said.
Since it was before dawn in a secluded area of the parking lot, no one has reported witnessing the attack. Anyone that has any information about the robbery or the two men is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 866-845-TIPS.
