Single-Family Rising, Multifamily Heading into Third Year Range-Bound
- Housing Starts dipped in January by 2.6 percent to a 1,246,000 unit annual rate.
- Permits for new residential construction increased by 4.6 percent to a 1,285,000 unit pace in January.
- Initial Claims for Unemployment Insurance gained 5,000 for the week ending Feb. 11, to hit 239,000.
Housing starts have been somewhat choppy over the past few months, drawing attention to an important sector of the economy that is interest rate sensitive. We expect the Federal Reserve to raise short term interest rates at least twice this year, and possibly more times if inflation data heats up. That will also put upward pressure on home mortgage rates. So we will monitor housing-related data closely to see if demand holds up as affordability declines with higher interest rates and higher prices. Also, multifamily absorption is cooling due to strong supply in some areas. We believe that over the long-term, demand for multifamily housing will remain strong, but some markets have built too far ahead of themselves and are now rebalancing. In January total housing starts dipped by 2.6 percent. Single-family starts rebounded from their December dip, up 1.9 percent in January. Multifamily starts went the other way, falling by 7.9 percent after surging in December. So it looks like the upward trend in single-family construction remains in place. However, multifamily construction is still range-bound, essentially where it has been since early 2015. Forward-looking permits increased by 4.6 percent in January to a 1,285,000 annual unit rate as multifamily permits rebounded from a December slump.
Initial claims for unemployment insurance increased by 5,000 for the week ending February 11, to hit 239,000. Continuing claims eased, down by 3,000 to hit 2,076,000 for the week ending February 4. These are still very good numbers indicating tight labor market conditions.
The Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia's Manufacturing Business Outlook Survey showed a strong increase in current activity for January, along with growing price pressure. Firms were asked to forecast changes in their own prices over the next year; the median forecast called for a 2 percent increase.
Market Reaction: Stocks were mixed at the open. The yield on 10-Year Treasury bonds is down to 2.46 percent. NYMEX crude oil is down to $52.78/barrel. Natural gas futures are down to $3.03/mmbtu.

Blake Lively is all set to feature in the upcoming deadly adventure movie, The Shallows and the new clips released by Sony shows her in Paradise but troubled. If you're a fan of Blake which you definitely are then 24th June is the day for you.
A few weeks ago when the trailer arrived everybody was dazzled with Blake's new move. This movie is also based on Shark attacks where Blake Lively is suffering those horrific experiences.
The threatening and terrifying sea adventures and their deadly results are so loved by people that Jaw made new trademarks for upcoming movies back in the 70s and the trend is still on.
These clips doesn't reveal much about the story The first clip shows Lively dropped at a beach by local while in the second clip she is being invited to join the safe while she is in water.
In the third clip she's been dragged just moments before the shark attacks her. This is only a trailer so expect much more deadly attacks by the shark.

IN BRIEF - State considers life raft for beleaguered oysters
Friday, August 11, 2017
Texas' oysters lead a tenuous life even in the best of times.
The past decade has seen some of the worst of times for these invaluable marine mollusks whose population ups and downs largely hinge on the vagaries of weather and, increasingly, human actions
Much of the state's approximately 48,000 remaining acres of oyster reefs, essential to the health, vitality and diversity of coastal ecosystems, crucial natural bulwarks against storm surges and the raw stock fueling a multimillion-dollar commercial fishery, have endured a decade of misfortune and devastation through an unlucky combination of natural and human-caused factors.

IN BRIEF - TASA announces Mr.Gonzalo de Romaña as new CEO
Tuesday, August 22, 2017
Lima - TASA, the worlds' leading producer and exporter of fish meal and fish oil, is delighted to announce the appointment of Gonzalo de Romaña as its new CEO, effective September 1st 2017. De Romaña will be replacing Carlos Pinillos, who announced in march his decision to stepdown as CEO of the company in order to pursue personal goals, ending a 31-year career at BRECA Group, 15 of them leading TASA.
In order to facilitate the transition process, Pinillos will continue in the company as an Executive Advisor until October.
De Romaña knows the fishing industry very well, he was CFO of TASA between 2010 and 2014. He left TASA and took the position of General Manager of CENTRIA, a Service and Administration company of BRECA Group, and in 2016 he assumed the position of CEO of Hoja Redonda an agroindustrial company of BRECA as well. Both companies that he ran after leaving TASA had excellent performance demonstrated by their results during the past three years.
Before entering TASA, De Romaña was the Financial Director of Duke Energy for Central America. He has a bachelor in Business Administration from the Universidad de Lima, and has an MBA from the Ross School of Business of the University of Michigan.
IN BRIEF - Salmon sales surge as UK food exports hit record high
Tuesday, August 22, 2017
Sales of British salmon helped the UK to export a record value of food and drink in the first half of the year, according to industry figures.
Exports of the fish jumped more than 53% by value to GBP 408 million, the Food and Drink Federation (FDF) said.
UK food and drink exports rose 8.5% to GBP 10.2 billion, helped by the fall in the pound after last year's Brexit vote.
But the FDF warned that without a favourable Brexit trade deal, British exports could become less competitive.

IN BRIEF - New fish-feeds factory boosts production, lowers imports
Tuesday, August 22, 2017
The cost of fish feed has reduced by half, from about RWF 1,500 to RWF 800, thanks to a new fish feed factory that has started operations in the country.
The factory, located at Kigali Special Economic Zone (KSEZ), has capacity to produce about 700 kilogrammes of feed per hour, and is expected to boost fish farming in the country.
The plant will save farmers from the difficulties they have been facing in importing fish feeds.
Local fish farmers have been importing feeds from Israel, Germany, Mauritius, and Uganda, and they say this was costly because of freight charges.

IN BRIEF - Low salmon returns in the Fraser River mean few fishery openings
Tuesday, August 22, 2017
Fraser River salmon returns for 2017 have been very low.
The fish heading up-river to spawn are significantly below forecast levels, so that means limited fishing opportunities for everyone.
Following conservation in terms of DFO priorities is providing Indigenous communities with food, social and ceremonial (FSC) fishery openings, which have been few so far in 2017.
"It is challenging," acknowledged Jennifer Nener, DFO Pacific Region's director of salmon management, on a conference call to offer an in-season update on Fraser salmon with West Coast media on Friday.
Complaints about the lack of recreational openings for chinook salmon have been received by DFO in the wake of its cautious management adopted for conservation reasons.

IN BRIEF - Angola to resume export of canned fish
Tuesday, August 22, 2017
Angola is due to start exporting canned fish to the European market following the inauguration on Friday in the municipality of Tômbwa, Namibe province, of two new units for canning, freezing and preserving fish, according to the Angolan press.
Pes-Sul, the unit for production of canned fish, has two processing lines and daily production of 125,000. Its owners are considering setting up a line to produce fish paste later this year.
The Minister of Fisheries, Vitória de Barros Neto, noted that the recovery of this unit allows Angola to have canned fish produced in the country again and in the medium term to start exporting to markets such as Europe, "where our canned fish previously had a presence."

IN BRIEF - Arctic voyage finds global warming impact on ice, animals
Tuesday, August 22, 2017
VICTORIA STRAIT, Nunavut - The email arrived in mid-June, seeking to explode any notion that global warming might turn our Arctic expedition into a summer cruise.
"The most important piece of clothing to pack is good, sturdy and warm boots. There is going to be snow and ice on the deck of the icebreaker," it read. "Quality boots are key."
The Associated Press was joining international researchers on a month-long, 10,000 kilometer (6,200-mile) journey to document the impact of climate change on the forbidding ice and frigid waters of the Far North. But once the ship entered the fabled Northwest Passage between the Atlantic and the Pacific, there would be nowhere to stop for supplies, no port to shelter in and no help for hundreds of miles if things went wrong. A change in the weather might cause the mercury to drop suddenly or push the polar pack into the Canadian Archipelago, creating a sea of rock-hard ice.

IN BRIEF - 'Suspend Asia fish importation'
Tuesday, August 22, 2017
KABANDA CHULU, Lusaka - Governement has been urged to suspend importation of fish from Asia where the tilapia lake virus disease has broken out and is affecting consumers and the productivity of the fish farming sub-sector.
Aquaculture Development of Zambia (ADAZ) trustee Fisho Mwale said Government should also start issuing health certificates prior to imports.
Mr Mwale said there is need to intensify health inspections of all imported fish if the country is to avoid having 'discarded' fish from Asia that is bad for consumption.
He called for the increased awareness by border staff of the mislabelling of Asian tilapia as Namibian Mackerel aimed at avoiding paying the normal tax duties.
Mr Mwale said the outbreak of the tilapia lake virus poses a threat to Zambia's growing aquaculture sector.

IN BRIEF - Kerala: CMFRI develops breeding tech for Indian pompano
Tuesday, August 22, 2017
Kochi - Mariculture in India gets a major boost with the Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) successfully developing the seed production technology of Indian pompano (locally known as avoli vatta), which has high commercial value both in domestic and international markets.
According to CMFRI director Dr A. Gopalakrishnan, this is the first report of the successful mass scale seed production of Indian pompano in the world. "The achievement is a major breakthrough in Indian mariculture business which will help the farming community to use the hatchery-produced seeds of Indian pompano for cage farming," he said adding that mariculture activities would be diversified with CMFRI developing seed production technology of one more high value marine fish.
This is the fifth of its kind of an achievement made by the CMFRI after the institute developed seed production technology of cobia, silver pompano, orange spotted grouper and pink ear emperor. Indian pompano (Trachinotus mookalee) is the most suitable species for cage culture considering its fast growth rate, easy adaptability to culture conditions, quick acceptance of artificial feed, good meat quality and high consumer preference.

IN BRIEF - New vessel design to bring hybrid propulsion to aquaculture industry
Tuesday, August 22, 2017
Wärtsilä has won a contract from Norway's Hav Shipping AS to design the first hybrid-powered processing and transportation vessel for use in the fish farming industry.
According to Wärtsilä, a new, hybrid battery configuration will minimise exhaust emissions from the vessel by absorbing most of the engine's load fluctuations and vessel load variations. The batteries also power the onboard hybrid propulsion machinery's PTI/PTO (power take-in/power take-off).
A representative from Wärtsilä told Riviera Maritime Media that the hybrid operation is expected to result in fuel savings of 10-15% and reduced costs in engine maintenance.
"The batteries installed assist the diesel engine with variable loads coming from both sea conditions and onboard power needs, allowing the diesel engines to run on a stable load."

IN BRIEF - Study reveals new salmon species
Saturday, August 19, 2017
Orleans, Calif – On August 2017 a team of researchers at the University of California, Davis led by Dr. Michael Miller, published a report in the journal Science Advances that may have sweeping ramifications for salmon fisheries management all along the west coast and Alaska. The report describes the genetic difference between Chinook (or King) salmon that migrate into rivers in the spring versus the fall. The research provides new insights into salmon evolution and reveals that spring Chinook salmon deserve to be treated as its own evolutionarily distinct unit separate from fall Chinook. Before the age of dams, industrial mining, and clear-cut logging, spring Chinook salmon were the most abundant run of salmon in many Pacific Northwest Rivers. Today these fish are nearly extinct throughout much of its historic range.
Already, the report has led the Karuk Tribe to start the process necessary to have spring Chinook in the Klamath River added to the Endangered Species List. The Klamath River flows from southeastern Oregon to California's north coast and is one of three rivers that power the West Coast commercial salmon fleet. Klamath spring Chinook were specifically used in Miller's study.
Spring Chinook enter rivers in the spring when snow melt swells rivers allowing the fish travel into the upper reaches of a watershed. Then they must reside in cold water areas all summer until they spawn and die in the fall. Fall Chinook migrate into rivers in the fall where they spawn and die relatively soon after entering fresh water. "Having two life strategies allow Chinook to take advantage of the entire watershed instead of just the upper or lower reaches," explains Toz Soto, Senior Fisheries Biologist for the Karuk Tribe. "This behavioral diversity enhances the chances of long term survival for the entire population."

MessageBroadcast is an IT service provider.
Here is a list of things to try.
Spybot search and destroy
Adaware personal
AVG antivirus
Trend Micro house call (online free and does a great job)
Microsoft Defender
I ussually use them all in really bad cases. All the software is free. They are listed in order from how I would run them. Sometimes you need to run it once or twice.

What OS? If it is XP I have better tools...
1. Use rootkit revealer to look for hidden files, write them down
2. Boot off of a BART disc or Hiren etc and clean those locations
3. Run an AV scan or two using a boot disc
4. Boot into the OS and run a few more scans. Spybot search and destroy, adaware, online trend micro
That should get you to a fairly clean state. You can build a set of ipsec rules that start with deny all traffic then allow web, dns, AD etc. I'm working on a tutorial for this on the page in my profile. I have a walkthrough done up to deny all, i'll try to get the allow rules next. If you do this, malware won't be able to report back on a lot of ports but still 80 and 443. usually back doors dont play on those.(edit) heh scott beat me by 3 minutes but we agree on many tools)

I second the point on system restore from thomas7009. You also might want to try Novashield. It got rid of a nasty morph for me. http://www.novashield.com.xn--6a; It works with other AV but works at an action level not with signatures. You have to install it but it might clean up any crumbs that the suggestions above miss. Ran accross this when I did a talk at UW Madison.

Have you tried msconfig? Start- Run - msconfig.
The startup tab shows you all the programs that automatically run. disable the lot and (after reboot) see if you still see the symptoms of the suspected infection.
More details would be useful - OS, antivirus used, trojan name, symptons et cetera.
Good Luck.

Virus, Trojan or what? And why a "free" solution Jackie ?
I spent about 4 years (as a sole trader) without any proprietary protection enabled, because all I experienced was slowdown and complication. With all protection disabled, I simply sniffed at emails (yes, with no preview pane), and on one occasion detected suspicious code 5 hours before Trend Micro issued an alert. You know, people have brains far more powerful than an AV engine.
As I now operate and manage a network owned by my new employer I now have to play the game (of course). We run AVG8 at Server and at all Desktops, with updates every 4 hours, and that is working v.coolly.
My box is a bit renegade as I also run a legacy fully subscribed Spyware Doctor.
The Doctor gets all bitter and twisted about produkey and any of its sisters. AVG isn't fussed at all about him. Produkey is a Spiceworks deliverable, and has a note to this effect at startup.
Neither of my AV Helpers has any issue with the svchost worm which I detect by using my brain and observing the infection's symptoms. The independent AV evaluation site (virusbulletin or something as I recall) tests AV products. The results - in terms of inconsistency of outcome by product - seem to indicate a superior level of sophistication by the V authors.
Never forget, People are Smarter than Computers.

The problem with trojans and other things of this nature, you really just can not use one type of software and hope to remove it. I have several years experience removing spyware, trojans, viruses, etc so if you provide us with the name of the trojan we would be able to walk you through on how to uninstall.
Hopefully you do not have virtumondo or zlob.

Bicycle brakes allow the cyclist to help control and slow the bicycle. A typical road bike uses two separate brakes, one over the front and one over the rear tire. Each brake is linked to a control lever on the handlebar via a cable. Road bike brakes feature a caliper design, whereby two arms come together simultaneously to grip the wheel and slow the bicycle. Although each brake has a separate cable, installation is identical for both front and rear road bike brakes.
Things You'll Need
- 5 mm Allen wrench
- Bicycle grease
- Road bike brake cable
Brake Installation
Locate the threaded mounting protruding from the back of the brake. The bolt extends outward from the brake and allows the brake to be mounted onto the bicycle frame.
Use bicycle grease to lightly lubricate the threads at the end of the mounting bolt.
Locate the mounting hole in the bicycle frame into which the mounting bolt will be inserted. The front and rear wheels are attached to the front and rear fork, respectively. Each fork has a pre-drilled hole just above the wheel for the express purpose of mounting a brake.
Insert the mounting bolt as far as it will go into the mounting hole. Hold the brake in place with one hand for now.
Insert the threaded nut that will secure the mounting bolt to the frame through the backside of the mounting hole.
Fit a 5 mm Allen wrench into the nut. While continuing to hold the brake with one hand, use the 5 mm Allen wrench to tighten the nut onto the mounting bolt. Tighten fully.
Brake Cable Installation
Squeeze the brake lever to reveal to reveal a hole at the top of the lever. The brake cable will pass through this hole.
Insert the brake cable into the hole. Pull it through until the cylindrical fitting at the other end of the cable catches inside the gear lever.
Route the cable to the mounted brake, following the designated path along the bicycle. The designated path features cable guides attached to the bicycle frame for proper routing.
Pass the cable through the adjusting barrel at the top of the brake. The barrel is located at the highest point on the brake and physically resembles a small 'barrel'. Directly below the barrel is a bolt designed to anchor the cable to the brake.
Pass the cable underneath the head of the bolt. If necessary, use a 5 mm Allen wrench to loosen the bolt, giving the cable enough room to pass beneath it.
Use the 5 mm Allen wrench to slightly tighten the bolt onto the cable.
Hold each side of the brake against the sides of the wheel while pulling the cable taut. Use the 5 mm Allen key to fully tighten the bolt onto the cable.
Use the adjusting barrel to adjust the gap between the brake pads and sides of the wheel. Turning the barrel clockwise increases the gap. A larger gap results in 'softer' braking. Adjust to personal preference.

Did an Oklahoma man ignite from spontaneous human combustion?
That's the big question authorities are trying to determine as they're ruling out homicide, but not spontaneous combustion in the death of Danny Vanzandt, 65.
"It's very unusual and it's bizarre and I can't explain it," Sequoyah County Sheriff Ron Lockhart told KFSM-TV.
Preliminary autopsy results were released to authorities Feb. 19.
"There is some burning I guess in the trachea, so the cause of death is gone be probably heat and smoke inhalation," Lockhart said.
He told reporters it's possible the victim burned for some 10 hours.
"The body is burned, incinerated, like I've never seen before and it's some kind of chemical reaction or something the way I can see it," he said.
Last Monday, Vanzandt's body was sent to the state medical examiner's office in Tulsa for an autopsy after emergency crews responded to his home the same morning.
The badly burned man was found dead in the kitchen by fire crews, and Lockhart says indications suggest spontaneous human combustion as the cause of death, as no nearby items or furniture around the body were burned.
The sheriff also says there were no signs of a struggle. The body was discovered by Vanzandt's brother and stepson.
"The body was burned and it was incinerated," Lockhart said. "This is a case that I've never seen before."
When pressed by reporters if he was serious about it possibly being a case of spontaneous combustion, he said yes, adding: "I think there's only about 200 cases worldwide, and I'm not saying this happened. I'm just saying that we haven't ruled it out."
Lockhart noted the victim was an alcoholic as well as a smoker.
"We wasn't saying the guy just busted into flames, you know there's gotta have an ignition source and that's what we're looking at is an ignition source such as lighting a cigarette and catches himself on fire, sucks the flames down his throat, and falls down," Lockhart said.
5NEWS conducted a recorded five-minute interview with Lockhart in which the sheriff explains why he believes spontaneous human combustion might have been a factor in the death:
'Body is burned, incinerated, like I've never seen before' ...more
'He may be wearing sandals, but He can still kick a--'

Claims Obama's birth certificate is verified forgery, a major issue
Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain is sure to be heard a lot more in the coming days as he's purchased a 50-state commercial campaign on the No. 1 radio show in America, hosted by Rush Limbaugh.
"It's actually 57 states, but who's counting?" joked Limbaugh today, poking fun at Barack Obama's flub during the 2008 campaign when the then-Illinois senator said he had campaigned in 57 states and still had a few more to go.
"It doesn't mean that we've endorsed Herman Cain, and it doesn't mean that we're not gonna talk about anybody else," Limbaugh stressed. "[Mitt] Romney can buy some time. Rick Perry can buy some time if they wish. I just don't want anybody to think here that the fact that one of the candidates has purchased time means that we have endorsed or haven't. Well, of course I haven't. I haven't endorsed anybody yet."
He added: "We're just business people here and candidate Cain said, 'We want to buy some time on your program.' We said, 'Fine and dandy.'"
Limbaugh played one of Cain's ads to give listeners a sample of what they'd be hearing:
"Nine-nine-nine means jobs, jobs, jobs. I'm Herman Cain, a candidate for president, and I approve this message, but Obama doesn't. My 9-9-9 plan creates 6 million jobs. Obama doesn't want you to know because he doesn't want me to win. Go to 999MeansJobs.com and help me defeat Obama."
The campain said the ad can be run nationally due to an increase in fundraising numbers over the past few weeks. NBC's Andrew Rafferty reported over the weekend that Cain's campaign said it's raising about $1 million a week since Oct. 1.
"Both our national and state strategies are buoyed by this ad campaign," said Mark Block, Cain's chief of staff.

Ok so I spoke about how I haven't blogged in months because I'm sorting my life out and so I just thought I would write about what is going on with me now.
So my sister got engaged and I don't think I had actually mentioned that yet, but she did. She has now had both of her engagement parties and is nearly completed in planning and organising her wedding.
|Cocktails at my the family engagement party :)
She is getting married in May in Venice, I'm super excited for the wedding and she has asked me, in all her wisdom, do her makeup for the wedding which means we will actually shortly be attending a class just so she is fully confident in my doing the makeup for her! On a side note, they asked us to bring all of our makeup with us to the class so that they could teach us using products we already have and therefore we can recreate the looks they show us exactly, in theory this is a really good idea but like many things in practise I'm not sure how this is going to work. I have a lot of makeup and this class is in London, which means that I'm going to have to take a suitcase just for my makeup and that means I won't have much space for my clothes for the visit. Maybe the class is meant for people who aren't like…well…me!
The next thing that happened to me I guess was my Graduation. On July 18th, exactly one month before I turned 21, I graduated with honours from Bristol. This was possibly one of the happiest moments of my life as I had been through a lot in my second and third year and it had got to the point where I was unsure on whether graduation was on the cards for me, however someone was looking out for me somewhere and I managed to graduate!
Then came the summer and I decided that I would mostly have the summer off from everything and just relax, however in the summer was my 21st birthday and I had a brilliant time, going out for cocktails with my girlfriends, having a big family dinner and going clubbing with a group of friends later on. Not to mention my brand new Ted Baker suitcase and Michael Kors bag! I pretty much have the bag where ever I go and if I travel anywhere my new suitcase comes with me because it is just so beautiful.
September hit and I just didn't feel like working anymore, I was applying to courses but half-heartedly and I just wanted to continue doing nothing but traveling back to Bristol to see my university friends and hanging around with my other friends back home. It seemed like the perfect life. However my mum got to me eventually like they do tend to and I decided to apply to a course locally in Chester that would hopefully lead me to my goal of Hong Kong. Funny story the Chester School of English Language is not in Chester, UK but in Madrid, Spain. So, yeah, I'm off to Spain for a month in February with little to no Spanish language skills. Here's hoping I'll be so bogged down with work that I won't be able to get myself into any trouble while I'm over there.
My Christmas was fantastic and New Year was decent too, but I haven't done much since then apart from plan for my trip to Madrid.
So that pretty much sums up my life since when I stopped blogging.
I hope you enjoy reading a whirlwind description of the past months of my life.

"The attitude of the nurses in ..."
About: Leicester Royal Infirmary Leicester Royal Infirmary Leicester LE1 5WW
Posted by stanley (as ),
What could be improved
The attitude of the nurses in the EDU section of A&E was very poor. I feel that because I attended on a Saturday night with an injury sustained in an assault and had been drinking, they assumed it was my own fault and treated me like a second rate patient.

For more than 20 years, the Health and Retirement Study (HRS) has been a leading source for information on the health and economic circumstances of adults over age 50 in the United States. Since its launch in 1992, HRS has painted a detailed portrait of America's older adults including health, insurance coverage, financial situations, family support systems, work decisions, and retirement well-being.
We do this by asking select individuals to participate in the study and tell us about their lives. This information has been used by scientists to publish over 2,500 books, articles and papers. This website provides more information about the study, including links to news articles about these HRS research findings, and links to external sites related to retirement and aging. We hope you will find it interesting and informative.
As the world around us changes, from changes in the country's economic status, to the housing markets in our neighborhoods and even the type of health care coverage we might expect to have in the future, the HRS helps provide a picture of the needs and experiences of Americans across the country.
The HRS is a longitudinal project sponsored by the National Institute on Aging (NIA U01AG009740) and the Social Security Administration. The study director is Dr. David R. Weir of the Survey Research Center at the University of Michigan's Institute for Social Research.

Majority Of Americas Political Center Supports Marijuana Legalization
Category: Legalization | Posted on Sat, October, 19th 2013 by THCFinder
A new poll commissioned by NBC and Esquire designed to determine the opinions of those in America's "center" [the nation's voters who don't fit into a specific ideology or political party] has found that 52% are in support of legalizing cannabis.
According to the poll, 34% of America's "political center" "strongly supports" cannabis legalization, more than all levels of opposition. 33% claimed to be oppose to legalizing cannabis, with 20% of those being "strongly opposed". 15% said that they are either undecided, or neutral on the subject.
The results are practically identical to a Pew Research poll released in April, which found that 52% of Americans are in support of legalization with 45% opposed.

Mexico City Considers Legalizing Marijuana
Category: Legalization | Posted on Tue, October, 15th 2013 by THCFinder
I have done missionary work in Mexico a handful of times, and if there is any place that needs drug reform, it's Mexico for sure. Below is an e-mail that I received from my friends at Law Enforcement Against Prohibition:
MEXICO CITY – After years of brutality and violence from drug cartels largely funded by marijuana, political leaders in one of the world's largest cities may take power and profits away from those cartels by legalizing and regulating marijuana. Members of the Mexico City city assembly plan to submit bills establishing clubs that would sell marijuana and allow the possession of small amounts of the plant at the end of this month. The new mayor, Miguel Mancera, has stated his support for marijuana policy reform in the past and is widely expected to support the new bills.
"More than 70,000 people have been killed in the drug war in Mexico in the past seven years," said retired police major Neill Franklin, executive director of Law Enforcement Against Prohibition, a group of law enforcement officials opposed to the war on drugs. "Were Mexico City to legalize and regulate marijuana, taking it out of the hands of violent cartels and into those of legitimate businesses, it would be a tremendous boon to public safety in the city and a sign to the rest of the world that legalizing marijuana is a smart, workable solution to the evils of the drug war."
If the proposals are successful, the city will join the ranks of Colorado and Washington state, which both voted to legalize marijuana last November, and Uruguay, whose lower house has already approved a legalization bill expected to pass the senate this month.
Law Enforcement Against Prohibition is a nonprofit organization of police, prosecutors, judges and other law enforcement professionals who, after fighting in the war on drugs, now advocate for its end.

U.K. Proposal Announced To Legalize Marijuana
Category: Legalization | Posted on Mon, October, 14th 2013 by THCFinder
A group of ministers in the Liberal Democrat party are introducing a proposal to drastically alter the U.K.'s drug policies by legalizing cannabis, in addition to other "club drugs" such as ecstasy, according to the Sunday Times. The move is planned as a means to fix the U.K.'s failing war on drugs, which has resulted in an increase in crime, and a heavy financial burden on taxpayers.
A review ordered by Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg, which is due to be published before Christmas, is expected to suggest that the U.K. should legalize cannabis in a way similar to Washington and Colorado in the United State.
The proposal is also expected to call for the introduction of heroin clinics where addicts can receive the drug through prescription in an attempt to reduce crime by dissuading individuals from purchasing from the black-market.
The proposal is expected to be released in December.

Marijuana Legalization: 8 Lies the White House is Spreading About Weed
Category: Legalization | Posted on Fri, October, 11th 2013 by THCFinder
Marijuana use is harmful and should be discouraged, or so says the White House. The misinformation regarding weed has been going on for decades, and the Obama administration is no exception. All anyone has to do read through the unintentionally hilarious "fact sheet" from the White House, and see how ridiculous our federal government has become at spreading lies about marijuana. According to the White House, "A careful examination of the facts leads to the following conclusions about the dangers of marijuana use and the likely consequences of legalization." Let's light their claims up!
1. "The downward trend in youth marijuana use during the late 1990s has ended ... Not surprisingly, this increase coincides with a softening of youth attitudes about the risks of marijuana."
This presumptuous nugget insinuates that softening attitudes, i.e. majority support for legalization, regarding the risks of marijuana are what cause people to smoke it. In reality, people are just realizing that the facts simply aren't on prohibition's side.
2. "Proposals such as legalization that would promote marijuana use are inconsistent with this public health and safety approach."
What the heck does public health and safety mean? In this context, there is no mention of what this public health and safety approach is. If by denying legitimate medical conditions from relief like cancer or HIV/AIDS, then yes, it is consistent with "this" public health and safety approach. What it isn't consistent with is common sense and science.
3. "Legalization would lower price, thereby increasing use."
This is a fantastic example of how little the government actually understands about the markets it regulates. While legalization MAY decrease price, what will most likely happen when marijuana is legalized is like what after prohibition. The government will control it, and so prices will not necessarily decrease due to taxation and other factors, such as home gardens. This claim assumes that prices and usage are directly correlated, which isn't true. Prices on government-dominated markets vary, something Washington forgets all too often.
4. "And because drug use is sensitive to price, especially among young people, higher prices help keep use rates relatively low."
This one is refuted by their own statements! They say that high prices will keep use rates low. Even if the price stayed the same, their graph at the beginning of the fact sheet invalidates their claim. If keeping marijuana illegal causes higher prices and lower usage rates, why have the usage rates been going up?

Lawmakers light up marijuana legalization bill for third time
Category: Legalization | Posted on Wed, October, 9th 2013 by THCFinder
After two failed attempts, two Wisconsin legislators reintroduced a bill to make Wisconsin the 21st state in the country to legalize medical marijuana.
The bill, introduced by Sen. Jon Erpenbach, D-Middleton, and Rep. Chris Taylor, D-Madison, provides legal protection to medical cannabis users, along with legal protection for testers and prescribing physicians of the medicine.
Although the bill was introduced in previous sessions, this version of the bill adds additional provisions for users of medical cannabis than versions introduced in previous Legislative sessions in 2010 and 2012.
"Some of the language, including a provision about edibles, brings it more in line with other bills around the country," Gary Storck, Is My Medicine Legal Yet? spokesperson, said.
While the bill would legalize medical cannabis in Wisconsin, supporters of the bill were adamant that its passage would not lead Wisconsin down a path to legalization of marijuana in the state.
Julie Laundrie, spokesperson for Erpenbach said the goal of the bill is to help patients and doctors who believe in medical cannabis as a treatment for a variety of conditions.
Laundrie added the Legislature is far behind the public on this issue.
According to a May 2013 Fox News poll, 85 percent of Americans support the usage of medical cannabis when prescribed by a physician.
"There's public support for this, it's amazing," Storck said. "If the state Legislature would listen to the people instead of lobbyists and special interests, they would've passed this bill a long time ago."

Poll Finds Texans Ready To Legalize Marijuana
Category: Legalization | Posted on Wed, October, 9th 2013 by THCFinder
Voters in Texas are among the latest to hop on board the marijuana legalization bandwagon, according to a poll released this week. The Public Policy Polling survey had support for marijuana legalization at 58%, support for medical marijuana at 58%, and support for decriminalizing small-time possession at 61%.
The poll was commissioned by the Marijuana Policy Project. The survey of 860 randomly selected Texas voters was conducted September 27-29 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.3%.
"Marijuana prohibition has been just as big a failure as alcohol prohibition," said MPP executive director Rob Kampia, a part-time Austin resident. "Most Texans agree that marijuana sales should be conducted by legitimate businesses instead of drug cartels in the underground market."
The poll's legalization question — "Would you support or oppose changing Texas law to regulate and tax marijuana similarly to alcohol, where stores would be licensed to sell marijuana to adults 21 and older?" — was the only question that allowed respondents to qualify their support as "strongly support" or "somewhat support." Some 41% strongly supported legalization, with another 17% somewhat supporting it.
Unusually, support for legalization was stronger among women (59%) than among men (56%). Also going against the grain, support was stronger among blacks (61%) and Latinos (60%) than Anglos (56%). In most polls across the country, men and whites are more likely to support legalization than women, blacks, or Latinos.
By political affiliation, legalization won strong majority support among Democrats (70%) and independents (57%), while even nearly half of Republicans (48%) also favored it. Legalization also won majority support across all age groups, with even those 65 and older coming in at 52%.
The poll also found that 61% of state voters support removing criminal penalties for possession of up to one ounce of marijuana and replacing them with a civil offense punishable by a fine of up to $100 with no possibility of jail time. Only 30% said they were opposed to that. Under current Texas law, it is a criminal offense for a person to possess a small amount of marijuana, and he or she can be sentenced to up to a year in jail and fined up to $2,000.

Washington DC Eliminates Gang Violence
Filed Under Current Events, Politics | Leave a Comment
How exactly did Washington DC eliminate gang violence, you ask? Well, DC officials have simply stopped using the word "gang" and replaced it with a cuter word:
D.C. officials insist on describing groups of young males as "crews," rather than gangs, even when they are held responsible for violent acts such as the wave of killings in the city last weekend.
Problem solved. But "crew-banger" doesn't come across much better — makes 'em sound like Sha-Na-Na groupies.
With that bit of effective logic out of the way, the next order of business is to change the term "DC officials" to the far more accurate "idiots."

The Sea Level Rise Toolbox is part of Eyes on the Rise, a project of Florida International University School of Communication and Journalism professors Susan Jacobson, Robert "Ted" Gutsche, Kate MacMillin and Juliet Pinto, and their students.
The goal of the Sea Level Rise Toolbox is to inform citizens of South Florida about the potential impact of sea level rise in their neighborhoods. We want to help our fellow Floridians adapt to sea level rise and better understand what local governments, including Miami Beach and Miami-Dade County, are doing to adapt to sea level rise. To this end, FIU Journalism students have produced a video series on Sea Level Rise Impact for WPBT2, and have partnered with journalists from Fusion, whose reporting on the Miami Beach Centennial and sea-level rise adaptation efforts helps provide this context to the app.
The visualization of the sea level rise is based upon the State of Florida Division of Emergency Management LiDAR ProjectLAS Dataset hosted by the FIU International Hurricane Research Center (see details at http://digir.fiu.edu/Lidar/lidarNew.php). It is intended to project results of "static" sea level rise, not taking tidal effects in consideration. The web visualization of the "static" sea level rise map (details here) is developed by FIU's Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Center. The app's main feature is an interactive sea level rise viewer where users can enter an address to visualize how up to a 6ft increase in sea level may affect their neighborhoods in the Tri-County area of South Florida.
As development on the Sea Level Rise Toolbox continues, it will also include a database of flood reports from both government and citizen sources in South Florida. Miami-Dade County recently launched an open data portal that includes flood reports, which will be included in the flood database. The flood report database will help residents identify the incidence of what the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration calls 'nuisance flooding,' a phenomenon that is increasingly common as coastal sea levels rise.
To find your location…
Enter a location — an address or landmark — into the search box, or click on a location on the map itself.
To See Sea Level Rise
Click on Sea Level Rise to show your elevation and to simulate sea level rise. Slide the slider knob slowly to the right to simulate sea level rise.
Elevation Data
The elevation data is provided by Google's elevation service. The value is interpolated from actual elevation measurements at the four nearest available locations. The horizontal resolution is the distance between these points. Please note that we use Google Elevation to show the elevation of the address entered by the user, but we do not use Google Elevation to calculate the visualization of sea-level rise (see here for more details).
The data and maps in this tool illustrate the scale of potential flooding, not the exact location, and do not account for erosion, subsidence, or existing or future construction of flood mitigation projects. Water levels are shown as they would appear during the highest high tides (excludes wind driven tides), also known as MHHW (mean higher high water – see http://co-ops.nos.noaa.gov/datum_options.html for a definition). The data and maps in this tool are provided "as is," without warranty to their performance, merchantable state, or fitness for any particular purpose. The entire risk associated with the results and performance of these data is assumed by the user.
