Royal Jelly is a thick, milky substance secreted from the pharyngeal glands of a special group of young nurse bees between their 6th and 12th days of life after birth.The nutritional significance of YS Organic Bee Farms - Royal Jelly plus Ginseng & Eleuthero 875 mg is the fact that the differentiation of the female larvae is totally dependent upon their early developmental stage. In the larvae stage, they are absolutely identical and feed on Royal Jelly for the first three days after hatching. The fertilized eggs give rise to females which are either sexually immature small workers bees or large, fertile queens.From the fourth day on, only the special larvae selected to become the Queen continues to be fed with Royal Jelly throughout her entire life, while the worker bees are fed on regular hone and pollen. The fascinating discover was that nutrition was the only distinctive difference between the worker bees and the Queen. The Queen Bee is made, not born. The Queen Bee is mother of a quarter of a million bees, and amazingly lays over 2,000 eggs in a single day. The life span of the Queen lasts for to five years, contrary to the considerably shorter lives of workers, an average of 3 months or less. Royal jelly is truly a miracle food!48 - Hour extracting method and quality controlBeekeepers with whole life time experience know the quality of Royal Jelly is critically dependent on the time at which it is extracted from the beehive. This process can be initiated anywhere from 24 to 72 hours of gestation but the most effective time is immediately after 48 hours. After extensive testing, it was found that the nutritional properties of this substance are the most potent for peak effect at this time. Fresh Royal Jelly in its natural state is powerful is a powerful life reproduction energy source and is the only form which the Queen Bee approves.Composition of Royal JellyRoyal jelly is a mysterious complexity that modern science cannot yet fully analyze. This unknown substance is referred to by research scientists as Catalytic Factor R. The beneficial effects of Royal Jelly must not depend on its nutrients alone, but on some type of enzymatic or catalytic action generated within, that is, synergistic interactions between all the live nutrients activating the glands of internal secretion to stimulate and speed up cell metabolism and body processes. This is Mother Nature's Secret Way. Studies show Royal Jelly contains all the B Vitamins (especially rich in pantothenic acid), nucleic acid , all the essential amino acids, all essential fatty acids - especially the famous 10-HDA (hydroxy monounsaturated fatty acids), acetylcholine, collagen, lecithin, gamma globulin, beta sitosterol, enzymes, hormones (natural estradiol and testosterone), essential vitamins and minerals. In addition, Royal Jelly has powerful antibacterial and antibiotic properties. About YS Organic Bee Farms Y.S.

- Description:
- NARA M566. Letters received by the Adjutant General's Office during the period 1805-21, including many relating to the War of 1812.
These are letters received by the Adjutant General's Office during the period 1805-21. Included are a few letters dated after 1821. They are a part of Record Group 94, Records of the Adjutant General's Office. The images in this title were digitized from 144 rolls of the NARA microfilm publication, M566. Contents of each roll, as well as a list of significant consolidations of letters under one file year are provided at the end of the descriptive pamphlet for M566. Much of the content on this page has been taken from the DP. It can be viewed or downloaded here.
The letters reproduced in this microcopy were received from officers and enlisted men of the Army, the Secretary of War, the President, officials of other Government departments, Members of Congress, private persons, and business firms. The letters deal with the appointment, recruitment, transfer, pay, promotion, leave, discharge, and other personnel actions affecting officers and enlisted men of the Army; orders, regulations, and other issuances of the War Department; Indian affairs; military organizations; military installations; and many other subjects.
Not all the letters in this series were received by the Adjutant General's Office. Many, including nearly all the letters dated between 1805 and 1810, were received by the Secretary of War and then referred or later transferred to the Adjutant General's Office. Others were received at the headquarters of the various military divisions, districts, and departments between 1813 and 1821 and later added to this series. Among these are a large number received during 1818 and 1819 at the headquarters of Gen. Edmund P. Gaines, commander of the Eastern Section of the Division of the South, and at the headquarters of the 7th and 8th Military Departments, which contain a considerable amount of information relating to the Seminole War, events in or near Spanish Florida, and conditions in the southeastern United States.
A small proportion of the series here reproduced consists of drafts of contemporaneously prepared replies to letters in the series; copies of replies—some dated as recently as the 1930's— to requests for historical or genealogical information that was searched for in the letters; office memoranda and notes documenting searches made in these records by War Department clerks; charge cards containing varying amounts of information that were left in place of records removed from the files; cross-reference slips indicating the name under which letters of recommendation were filed; and cross reference cards inserted by the National Archives staff indicating the present location of letters that once formed part of this series.
On June 16, 1775, the Continental Congress resolved that there should be an Adjutant General of the Continental Army and on the following day selected Horatio Gates for the position. Although there have been numerous organizational and functional changes and some variations in rank and title, an Adjutant General has been continuously in office since that date.
During the period covered by the letters here, this officer was known successively as the Adjutant and Inspector of the Army (1805-12), the Adjutant General (1812-13), the Adjutant and Inspector General (1813-21), and, again, the Adjutant General (1821).
During the first two decades of the 19th century the functions of the Adjutant General and his small staff increased in number and importance until, by 1821, the Adjutant General's Department had become the department of records, orders, and correspondence of the Army and the militia. Its major duties included recording, authenticating, and communicating to troops and individuals in the military service all orders, instructions, and regulations issued by the Secretary of War preparing and issuing commissions; managing the recruiting service; and consolidating the general returns of the Army.
Using the records
The general pattern of arrangement of the series of letters here reproduced is chronological by year and thereunder alphabetical by the name, office, or title of the person who wrote the letter or to whom the letter chiefly relates. A few of the letters are arranged alphabetically by subject. The letters comprising a file (generally the letters relating to a person for one year) are arranged chronologically, with undated letters and those with insufficient dates filed last. Enclosures filed with their covering letter bear the mark "Encl." and the file name and date of the covering letter. Enclosures that have become separated from their covering letters are filed in the same way as the regular letters. Scarcely any of the letters transmitting returns and muster rolls have enclosures because the returns and rolls were removed and filed in separate series in the Adjutant General's Office.
There are a number of variations and imperfections in the arrangement pattern.
(1) Letters relating to an individual that cover a span of two or more years have sometimes been filed together, usually under the earliest or latest year represented in the consolidation. Below is a list of the 52 more significant consolidations in this series, showing the name of the individual, the date coverage, and the year under which the consolidation has been filed. Less significant consolidations, which are not listed, consist of documents relating to applications for commissions or civilian positions, discharges, and other personnel matters.
(2) Names beginning with "Mc" are arranged before the regular "M's" in the files for 1807-9 and 1811-12 but follow the "Ma's" in other years.
(3) Names beginning with "Mac" are arranged as if spelled "Mc" in the 1806, 1808, 1811, and 1815 files.
(4) Letters relating to persons with official titles (for example, Callender Irvine, Commissary General of Purchases) are filed under surname in some years and under title in others.
(5) Letters filed under the various military divisions, districts, and departments are sometimes arranged under the letter "D" and other times under the letter "M" (for military).
(6) Letters of recommendation, of which there are many, may be filed under the name of either (a) the person recommended, (b) the first person mentioned in a letter recommending two or more individuals, (c) the person making the recommendation, or (d) the person transmitting the recommendation to the War Department.
When this series of letters was transferred to the National Archives, the files were in jackets or envelopes on each of which was written information describing the file, such as the name, rank or title, and native State of the person to whom the letters relate, remarks about the contents of the letters, and references to other files containing related records. Other information given was the number of "enclosures" (documents) that had once been filed within the jacket; this information, however, is often inaccurate.
Because the jackets were very dilapidated and the information contained on them therefore was in danger of being lost, the National Archives placed the files into folders. The information on each old jacket was transcribed onto the folder containing the file and has been microfilmed ahead of the file. The folders were numbered in one continuous sequence from l to 15560. In the course of perfecting the arrangement many interpolations were made (8623 1/2 and 8261 2/5, for example). There are no folders bearing the following numbers: 10266, 10495, 11100, 11107, 13893, 14083, and 15557.
Some of the folders contain no documents but do contain information relating to the transfer of the documents once in the file to other series of records or to other divisions of the Adjutant General's Office. In addition there are about 15 other folders containing neither documents nor information as to their present location. None of the documents belonging in these folders have been found.
Related records
Beginning in 1812 the Adjutant General's Office began to record the receipt of letters in registers. These registers, which are also in Record Group 94, give such information as the name or office of the correspondent, date the letter was written, date it was received, and purport of the letter. The earliest extant register begins in November 1814. The entries in the registers are for letters initially received in the Adjutant General's Office; they therefore do not include letters received in other offices and added to the series of letters received at later dates. These registers are not yet microfilmed.
In the same record group are other related records. Among them are M565, Letters Sent by the Office of The Adjutant General (Main Series), 1800-90; and M567, Letters Received by the Office of The Adjutant General, 1822-1860. The latter is available on Fold3.

RICHMOND, Va.—From the sound of it, Robert Griffin III lost the first couple of showdowns. He won't take any live hitting in the Redskins' training camp practices, and he won't play in any preseason games.
In other words, six months isn't quite enough to come back from two torn knee ligaments. However … are eight months really enough?
MORE: Redskins camp questions | RG3's face on prosthetic leg | Skins' staff 'astonished' at recovery
Based on Griffin's training camp-opening, state-of-the-ACL press conference Wednesday, he and the Redskins will err on the side of caution and, as he repeated often, will be patient.
Yet, at the risk of parsing every syllable and vocal inflection of his 15-minute update at the team's training camp headquarters, it sounds like he will be a handful to keep in check until the night of Monday, September 9.
PHOTOS: Best images from NFL training camps
That must be a little scary. Even if Griffin stays true to the game plan, it still puts his comeback—against the Philadelphia Eagles on national TV—just eight months to the day after Dr. James Andrews repaired his knee, and eight months and three days since the gruesome injury itself, at FedEx Field in the playoff game against Seattle.
On a scale of 1-10, with 10 being "Adrian Peterson," that's an 11. Peterson's return for last year's regular-season opener—also with no preseason action and just a handful of contact drills—came eight months and 16 days after his injury.
On Wednesday, Griffin said all the right things and struck the right tone.
"Everybody's on the same page," he said. It did sound, though, as if he had to be convinced to flip back to the page Andrews, Mike Shanahan and co. were on.
On seeing action before the regular season, he said "Maybe in the third preseason game—but as far as my understanding goes, preseason is not really in the air, is not a worry at all. I feel like I can play, and Coach feels like I can play, without any preseason. No need, really, for that."
His description of himself as an "overachiever" was illuminating, as well. It's what has propelled most of the talk of his beating Peterson's still-shocking pace. Having surpassed every expectation for what he would be capable of as a rookie, Griffin makes a compelling case for exceeding medical standards, too.
"Whether it's Coach, the doctors, the decision for me to play Week 1—if they want me to be patient now and ramp it up later, then I'm wiling to do that,'' he said. "They know that I'm gonna be—I don't want to say 'compliant,' but I'll follow those rules, follow those guidelines, do as much as I can within that, and when it's time to go full-go, I'll be ready to go."
Griffin also addressed the future (playing less recklessly to protect his longevity) and the past (everybody involved in the playoff fiasco is letting bygones be bygones).
But the present is plenty dangerous, too. Griffin wants to live there; it's easy to see that even with his measured perspective Wednesday. The team needs him to see beyond that.
So maybe while watching his knee, the Redskins might want to watch Griffin's arm—they might find themselves twisting it to keep him from rushing back into the fray before he's ready.
And that includes Monday, September 9.

There is a new Aphex Twin album coming soon called Syro. I loved Come to Daddy and his Mescalinum United remix. Overall however I think a lot of his work fits into the "interesting because it was first" category. That said such a long time has past since his last album (2001) that it's going to be really interesting to hear something new. I hope it blows us all away.
"It was Aphex Twin's first tweet in over two years, but Richard D. James turned 140 characters into the news fans have been pining for since 2001's Drukqs: A new Aphex Twin LP is on the way. Days after a strange Aphex-affiliated blimp hovered above London and James' trademark logo was seen stenciled outside New York's Radio City Music Hall, the long-dormant IDM wizard revealed that his new album will be dubbed SYRO. The always-technologically advanced James posted the album's press release on the Deep Web, meaning only those with TOR proxy access can see the LP's alleged cryptic track list. As Stereogum notes, Monday also marks James' 43rd birthday." – Rolling Stone

PEOPLE recently got the exclusive chance to chat with Victoria Beckham about her new line of sunglasses that has just launched in the U.S. (her denim line is coming this summer). Why sunglasses? Posh explains, "Sunglasses have always been a signature for me. They're a great last-minute accessory and have the added bonus of hiding tired eyes after you've been up all night with the children." The fashion-icon inspired shades are already a hit with celebrities like pal Jennifer Lopez, who was recently spotted sporting a pair of candy striped frames. "She loves them!" says Beckham. "It's a huge compliment that she's wears them." And she's not the only one, husband David has a pair of the unisex aviators and, notes his wife, "he looks great in them!" Next up for Beckham is the launch of her dVb denim line due in stores this summer. "The philosophy is very focused: great fit, exceptional quality and a shot of high fashion for the girl who wants the perfect pair of jeans." As for her own posh style? "I'm a fashion girl at heart and love to go all out when the occasion is right," she admits. "What can I say? I'm a girl's girl!"

The report, which represents the consensus view of the U.S. intelligence community, describes a wide range of sectors that have been the focus of hacking over the past five years, including energy, finance, information technology, aerospace and automotives, according to the individuals familiar with the report, who spoke on the condition of anonymity about the classified document. The assessment does not quantify the financial impact of the espionage, but outside experts have estimated it in the tens of billions of dollars.
Cyber-espionage, which was once viewed as a concern mainly by U.S. intelligence and the military, is increasingly seen as a direct threat to the nation's economic interests.
In a sign of such concerns, the Obama administration is seeking ways to counter the online theft of trade secrets, according to officials. Analysts have said that the administration's options include formal protests, the expulsion of diplomatic personnel, the imposition of travel and visa restrictions, and complaints to the World Trade Organization.
Cyber-espionage is "just so widespread that it's known to be a national issue at this point," said one administration official, who like other current and former officials interviewed spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal deliberations.

Toxicology Brief: Metformin overdose in dogs and cats
Metformin is available in single-ingredient preparations as well as in combination with other antidiabetic agents. Under the trade name Glucophage (Bristol-Myers Squibb) and in several generic formulations, metformin is available as tablets containing 500, 850, or 1,000 mg of metformin hydrochloride. Glucophage XR, the extended-release formulation, contains 500 or 750 mg of metformin hydrochloride. Two other metformin-only products available in the United States are Riomet (Ranbaxy Pharmaceuticals), a liquid oral formulation containing 500 mg/5 ml of metformin hydrochloride, and Fortamet (First Horizon Pharmaceutical) 500- or 1,000-mg extended-release tablets.MECHANISM OF ACTION AND PHARMACOKINETICS
Biguanides are thought to lower postprandial glucose concentrations in diabetic patients by increasing glucose uptake and decreasing glucose production. Although the precise mechanisms by which metformin exerts its antihyperglycemic effects are not entirely certain, they are largely attributed to a reduction in hepatic gluconeogenesis, a decrease in intestinal glucose absorption, and an increase in peripheral tissue sensitivity to insulin.1,4,5 To a lesser degree, metformin may also increase glucose uptake by skeletal muscles.6
Although experience with metformin in animals is limited, studies have shown that the general pharmacokinetics of metformin in cats is similar to that reported in people.2,7 In people, metformin is absorbed slowly from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, with peak plasma concentrations reached within one to three hours after ingestion. The absolute bioavailability under fasting conditions is about 50% to 60%. Peak plasma concentrations are achieved within four to eight hours after ingestion of a dose of a metformin extended-release product.1,2,8
Metformin is not metabolized in the liver and is eliminated unchanged primarily in urine, with a small percentage of unabsorbed drug excreted in feces. The elimination half-life in people is 6.2 hours. With oral doses, by 24 hours after ingestion, about 90% of the absorbed drug has been eliminated by the kidneys. For that reason, the elimination half-life can be delayed in individuals with significant renal insufficiency and is therefore contraindicated in those patients.8,9
In all cases of metformin ingestion reported to the aspca apcc, the patients were symptomatic, and most of the affected animals were dogs. The most common clinical sign reported was vomiting (92%), with about half the patients exhibiting this sign alone. The onset of vomiting ranged from 15 minutes to eight hours after ingestion.
In one diabetic cat being treated with metformin, an oral dose of 250 mg given twice daily was associated with severe vomiting and diarrhea.10
Signs reported to the ASPCA APCC less frequently include lethargy, diarrhea, hypothermia, hypotension, pale mucous membranes, and hindlimb tremors. The duration of signs is not known; however, it is presumably three or four metformin half-lives (18 to 24 hours).

Texas likely to miss ex-teammate Wilson again
CHICAGO -- The Angels will be in Arlington during the weekend of Aug. 15-17 for a three-game series. It will be the fourth series between the two teams this season, and the Rangers are still not expected to face C.J. Wilson.
The former Ranger is scheduled to start Thursday against the Dodgers and next Wednesday against the Phillies. That would mean he won't pitch against the Rangers, something he hasn't done yet this season. The Rangers are likely to face Jered Weaver, Garrett Richards and Hector Santiago in that series.
Texas is scheduled to face Scott Feldman this weekend in Houston during the Rangers' three-game series with the Astros at Minute Maid Park. The Astros' rotation calls for left-hander Brett Oberholtzer on Friday, Feldman on Saturday and left-hander Dallas Keuchel on Sunday.
The Rangers then return home to face the Rays for a four-game series. The Rays' rotation calls for left-hander Drew Smyly and right-handers Jeremy Hellickson, Chris Archer and Jake Odorizzi.

IT'S through necessity that Newport Gwent Dragons have adopted their policy of trying to polish rough diamonds when it comes to recruitment.
The region has always had to be a bit different to their rivals when they enter the transfer market.
They don't go in search of the finished product, instead they look at those with room for improvement or players that aren't fulfilling their potential.
The early signs are promising on that front when it comes to their big three summer arrivals.
Ian Nimmo, previously something of a journeyman, has settled rapidly in the second row, while full-back Dan Evans and wing Tom Prydie, a pair of Wales internationals whose form had dipped significantly, have become the go-to guys in attack.
While it would be foolish to go overboard after just two games in the RaboDirect Pro12, it looks like all three will be canny signings.
And then there is the Dragons' liking for handing opportunities to semi-professional players that have caught the eye.
It's a policy that is backed by a man who has been a binman, hod carrier, floor cleaner and one of the finest goalkeepers to ever don gloves.
When former plumber Hywel Stoddart made his first regional start against Leinster on Saturday it would have got the seal of approval of Neville Southall.
Before his time at Everton that saw him win a raft of medals, honours and most of his 92 Wales caps, Big Nev did his time in the Cheshire League with Winsford United.
That era of his life provides plenty of tales in his excellent new book 'The Binman Chronicles'.
On a publicity tour last week he was happy to chat about the benefits of the Dragons handing chances to the likes of Stoddart, Lloyd Burns, Andrew Coombs and Mike Poole.
"Sometimes the roughening up and mental toughness that you get from outside academy systems is invaluable," he said.
"It's not all given to you, you have to fight for everything and you have to make your mark.
"It's tough out there away from the academies, especially in rugby when you have someone trying to smash and hurt you.
"But that can serve a kid well and there's a lot to be said for roughing 'em up a bit rather than letting them have all the kit, facilities and someone to wipe their backside."
Signing such players certainly adds a humility to the Dragons but sometimes you need a stellar foreign signing to go alongside them.
Injuries have caused the region to look overseas for a player to slot into the back five of their pack.
Earlier this week Glasgow signed South African Josh Strauss, a combative back row player who caught the eye with his physicality with the Lions in the Super 15 as much as his impressive beard.
If the Dragons could lure a player of similar stature to Rodney Parade then it may just help them in their bid to polish those rough diamonds.

1999 Chevrolet Tahoe Front End Conversion - Face-Off
How to Finish GM's Redesign of its Older SUVs
Every so often, manufacturers change up little things on their trucks to make them look fresh while keeping the base theme the same. A good example of this is the Avalanche-style front clip found on '03-'05 Chevrolet fullsize trucks. The truck itself is the same, but the new front end gives it a bolder look and brighter headlamps. Unfortunately, for SUV lovers, when the truck changed for the better, Chevy's Tahoe and Suburban didn't receive the same love, leaving the owners of those vehicles in the lurch. However, the good news is that updating the front end of these popular SUVs to new truck specs is as simple as bolting on the newer sheetmetal.
The common misconception is that the swap is very difficult to perform. People tend to think you'll have to swap out the radiator core support, replace framehorns, and go from there. That couldn't be further from the truth. There's also a great place out there to find the parts you need. Sure, you could go to GM direct, and there'd be nothing wrong with that, but it would be cost prohibitive. Instead, you can call G&R Auto Recycling, out of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, which has all the parts you'll need. The company specializes in GM parts and can get you anything and everything you need for your GM vehicle. Follow along, as we perform this easy front-end swap on a '99 Tahoe and modernize the clip.

text: Here is an easy solution. Stop the madness of backing the banks. It isn't a right to own a home in this country like so many think. It is something you earn. Only when we get back to that thinking will the fix be in place. In 2007 I remember my neighbors 19 year old son who only had a part time job at home depot thinking about buying a 400K house! You know what he ended up doing? Not listening to me in 2009 and buying a distressed for 330K only to lose it shortly afterward. How do you fix that? You make people accountable from the bottom to the top. Is it happening, yes. When it is over? Years from now is the best guess. The easy money slowed the process, but there is no easier than free, so here we go again. giddy up!

What does Presidents Day celebrate?
Presidents Day is observed on the third Monday of February.
Although many feel Presidents Day is a time to honor all former U.S. presidents, the federal holiday is actually the official observance of George Washington's birthday - Feb. 22, 1732.
To commemorate Presidents Day, the Census Bureau pulled information from its geographic database on the country's 100 most common place names, either the exact name or part of a longer name, such as "Fort Washington" or "Lincoln Park."
1. Washington
3. Lincoln
4. Jackson
6. Jefferson
7. Clinton
9. Madison
10. Monroe
13. Grant
24. Harrison
26. Adams
47. Cleveland
49. Garfield
56. Wilson
65. Taylor
Also worth noting:
Although never a president, founding father Benjamin Franklin's last name was the second most common name of a place.
Mount Vernon, George Washington's home in Virginia, is tied for 110th place, with 18 places.

The five candidates vying for Willits city council in the November 6 election participated in a two-hour forum on October 3. The full two-hour forum will be aired on Willits Community Television and on willitstv.org as soon as it is available.
The candidates are Bruce Burton, Victor Hanson, Morris Kaplan a.k.a. Prophessor Pingpong, Holly Madrigal and Madge Strong.
What is the most significant public safety problem facing Willits and what do you think should be done to address it?
Hanson: Believes the drug situation is a real problem, it drags down the community.
Kaplan: Believes alcohol, tobacco and pharmaceuticals are a real problem in the community. He believes the city needs to deal with the problem by teaching people how to be healthy and become productive members of society.
Madrigal: Considers methamphetamine use and lack of sufficient mental health resources causes the police to spend much of their time caring for the problem. She thinks the city should promote partnering with other groups to allow mental health dollars to go farther.
Strong: Believes the economy has forced many, including those needing mental health services, to drop off the end of the economic ladder. She considers the problem to be way bigger than the city of Willits.
Burton: Considers the economy has increased the stress in everyone's lives, leading to alcohol and other anti-social behaviors.
Currently the city will not even consider a development proposal requiring more than four household water connections due to the city's "lack of water." What will you do, if anything, to remove this barrier to potential new business or housing development?
Kaplan: Believes the city should start collecting rainwater and grey water.
Madrigal: Believes the community needs to use its water resources better. If we have a 1977 drought it will be a problem. Should that be needed the Boy Scouts have agreed to assist the city.
Strong: Believes we can do a lot better, possibly doing something like REDI to encourage low flow toilets or showerheads. The city can be much more proactive with water conservation.
Burton: Doesn't think this is the policy.
Hanson: Discussed the finding that Morris Dam could be raised if needed.
TWN note: In September 2006, the city was advised by legal counsel Alan Lilly to only allow a few relatively small, new facilities that do not trigger a full California Environmental Quality Act review due to concerns about the adequacy of the city's water supply. While the Haehl Creek development and new Frank R. Howard Hospital were approved, three subsequent proposals were asked to withdraw their proposals due to water issues. According to the Willits Community Development Director Alan Falleri this remains his instructions from the council as of October 9.
Is there anything you would do to improve the current strained relationship between Brooktrails and Willits?
Madrigal: Can make few comments due to the ongoing court case but will do what she can to encourage the two entities to work together.
Strong: Hopes members of the city council can attend Brooktrails meetings and vice versa to encourage communications. She believes the two groups should work as a whole broader community.
Burton: Also was limited due to pending suit. He characterized the case as Willits is obligated to pay for the $25 million sewer plant and either Brooktrails will continue to pay based on the ongoing contract or it will pay less.
Victor: Believes the lawsuit is not doing any resident of either community any good.
Kaplan: Believes all attorneys are unconstitutional.
Would you support a water rate increase to replace the Main Street water line?
Strong: Believes water rates are already quite high and would not propose a rate increase but would look at the current rate structure.
Burton: No.
Hanson: No.
Kaplan: Pass.
Madrigal: Says we still have infrastructure leaks on the water line and need to replace them but should look for more grants.
Do you support high density housing development in Willits?
Burton: I did not support the high density development near the Mormon Church in the past.
Hanson: Yes.
Kaplan: Would not support a speculative project but could support something that houses people in the Hotel Van.
Madrigal: Supports infill development first, especially one which included mixed use. Small lots and close neighbors add to a sense of community.
Strong: Her background in planning would lead her to support higher density development in the right location as it lowers the cost of providing services and streets.
Please state your views on the vagrancy laws:
Hanson: Would personally give money to help clean up after the vagrants, who defecate and leave trash all over the area.
Kaplan: His dog is going to be 7 years old soon and he thinks having a place for the vagrants and homeless to stay in Willits is the humane thing to do.
Madrigal: The council has given police the support it needs to enforce ordinances. The city does not have tons of money to take care of the homeless with many choosing to opt out of society. Voted to use grant to replace a police position lost in 2009.
Strong: The city and county do not have the money to assist the homeless. If you do have the services it acts like a magnet. The city police have a balanced approach. She was in favor of using the grant to replace police officer.
Burton: The major portion of the general fund is the police budget; it is the priority for council. Did not support hiring a replacement officer using grant funds due to the financial impact to the city budget.
Would you support allowing outdoor marijuana cultivation in the city limits?
Kaplan: Yes.
Madrigal: Does not support its growing in neighborhoods except in a secure location. The existing ordinance was developed because neighbors were negatively impacting other neighbors.
Burton: Not while it remains against federal law. Took oath of office to defend constitution and it is against federal law.
Hanson: There is so much out there; wouldn't allow it to be grown in the city.
What would you do to encourage community involvement?
Madrigal: Already does a lot, welcomes people to come to the council chambers and share view points. Could do more to reach out to the Latino community.
Strong: When people come to speak before the council it can do more to encourage them and provide feedback. The city could use more citizen's involvement.
Burton: While there is some formality to meetings we often break those to take comments from public.
Hanson: Encourages people to call me; discusses issues with neighbors. Would like to have more public attend meetings.
Kaplan: "We are up here, you are down there. We should play ping pong with each other on regular ongoing basis."
What is your position on using city streets for bypass construction traffic?
Strong: Supports agreement city has with CalTrans to keep heavy construction traffic off city streets.
Burton: Intent is to engage the builder and allow construction access on one or two streets in exchange for city infrastructure improvements.
Hanson: Agrees with Burton.
Kaplan: Takes same position as Farm Bureau.
Madrigal: This and the CalTrans relinquishment project will require tenacity on city's part to end up with safe streets and sidewalks.
What is your position on peak oil?
Burton: Not sure of peak oil but need to be energy independent.
Hanson: Solar business is thriving. We need to be worried about the future.
Kaplan: Peak oil is a way to scare us to raise the price of oil. Fear mongering is one of our biggest problems.
Madrigal: As a board member of WELL, she is very supportive of local efforts to prepare. She believes residents need to be increasing local food production and think about emergency preparedness.
Strong: Peak oil is a real concern as are issues of climate change. Area needs to be prepared and self sufficient as we can.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Part one appeared in the October 10 edition of TWN and has been reprinted on Page 9 of today's issue.

When Treasury fingers superannuation as being the nation's biggest tax concession, surpassing even owner-occupied housing's privileges, you know super's lurks are in the firing line.
When Tony Abbott rules out changes to super only in his first year as PM, you know both parties are taking aim – and that the opposition is hoping like crazy that Wayne Swan shoots first in May.
Today's Treasury Tax Expenditure Statement reckons individuals' superannuation concessions of one sort or another will cost the tax man $31.8 billion this financial year, overtaking housing's $30 billion.
More impressive is that, on current policies with an aging workforce making the most of the opportunity, Treasury estimates super concessions will cost $34.6 billion next financial year, $39.6 in 2014-16 and $44.8 billion in 2015-16.
On top of individuals' super tax breaks, the concessional taxation of employer contributions will cost another $13.2 billion this year – so $45 billion all up in super concessions.
Housing remains relatively stable, reflecting that with not much in the way of capital gains, owner-occupied housing being exempt from CGT isn't costing much more.
Treasury reckons the "tax expenditure" for housing to dip from $30 billion this financial year to $29.5 in the next, recovering to $30 billion in 2014-15 and rising to $30.5 billion in 2015-16.
Together, superannuation and owner-occupied housing make up nearly two-thirds of all tax expenditures which, at $115 billion, represent 7.5 per cent of GDP this year.
It used to be worse. In Peter Costello's last budget year, tax expenditures reached $126.5 billion – 10.7 per cent of GDP. As a percentage of GDP, Treasury forecasts tax concessions will dip another notch to 7.4 per cent next financial year before starting to rise again.
That's not necessarily a reflection of the Labor government tightening up on tax perks and the coalition handing more out – there were more capital gains about in 2007-08.
There are other "interesting" tax expenditures for fiscally constrained governments to consider – the $4.2 billion in capital gains tax discounts for individuals and trusts, for example – but for treasurers of either party facing our demographic inevitabilities and education, welfare and infrastructure ambitions, it's the big bags of money that will attract attention.
There are tax sweeteners for superannuation on the way in, while it's accumulating and, most of all, on the way out again. Concessional rates of tax apply to a super fund's earnings and payments are tax free no matter how wealthy an individual might be – and that's without getting into some of the exotic engineering involving part-pensions and such.
The extent of the Howard/Costello super concessions overwhelmingly benefited those on the highest tax brackets and having been pegged back a little by Swan.
Many in the industry expected super's massive tax advantages to be hit harder than they were in the last budget – but there's another one every May.

A 20-minute item on Tuesday's Mendocino County Board of Supervisors agenda to support the construction of the Highway 101 bypass around Willits exploded into a three-hour marathon as person after person got up to voice opposition to the project.
The agenda proposed supervisors "approve the letter of continued support" to CalTrans Director Malcomb Dougherty. It restated the historic support for the project by the board of supervisors, the Willits City Council and the Mendocino Council of Governments.
The letter concluded: "At this time, the public process for the Willits bypass has concluded and the construction phase has begun. Please work with the appropriate agencies and take the necessary actions to allow the contractor and their employees to move forward without further delays and additional unnecessary costs to the taxpayers."
With each speaker allotted three minutes to speak, it soon became clear to board Chairman Dan Hamburg the item was going to extend into the late afternoon, and he moved several timed items to allow the overflow crowd to speak, one by one.
Only one speaker, Mendocino Council of Governments Executive Director Phil Dow, spoke in favor of the project. More than 50 other speakers spoke in opposition.
A number of the speakers even urged supervisors to author a letter in opposition to the project.
Some spoke of the failure by CalTrans to reasonably consider a two-lane alternative, others of the environmental devastation the project will cause, some about the huge waste of taxpayer money. A number of speakers were concerned about the expected negative impact on small businesses, while some believed the entire design was based on pre-global warming concepts.
Many who spoke broke down in tears when recounting their worries and concerns about the project. Most stated there was still time to stop the project and do something more reasonable.
After several breaks for timed items, by late afternoon the board voted 3 to 2 to approve sending the letter supporting the project. Hamburg and Fourth District Supervisor Dan Gjerde voted against sending the letter.
Third District Supervisor John Pinches had drafted the letter and placed it on the agenda. He told the assembled crowd most people in the Third District favor the project, and now was the time to start construction.
Second District Supervisor John McCowen spoke about the conflicting arguments he continues to hear about the Willits bypass, where on one hand the bypass will not actually remove traffic from downtown and on the other the traffic removed from downtown will devastate local businesses.
McCowen opined that had the pro-bypass groups decided to bring out a crowd, the chamber would likely have been filled with them as well.
As Fort Bragg's representative to the Mendocino Council of Governments, Gjerde said he recalled originally voting against the project, mainly because of the large amount of county transportation money it required. Over the years, he recalled hearing only universal support for the project from a series of Third District supervisors and Willits representatives on MCOG.
MCOG sent a letter to CalTrans District 1 Director Charlie Fielder on March 6. One of its key points "is the prevailing opinion of the MCOG board that CalTrans should have secured the construction site (CalTrans right-of-way) prior to initiation of work by the contractor."
MCOG also encouraged CalTrans "to adopt a proactive stance in releasing public documents related to this project in a timely manner. This should include, as a minimum, postings on the Willits bypass website and copies available at the local Caltrans construction office."
MCOG suggested "adherence to construction industry work zone practice, strict onsite compliance with environmental regulations and a proactive posture in providing project related information to a sometimes skeptical public, will somewhat improve the atmosphere as we enter five years of construction in the Little Lake Valley."
The Brooktrails Board of Directors voted unanimously Tuesday night to support the bypass project. No member of the public spoke.
The Employers Council of Mendocino County sent a letter of support for the project to Senator Noreen Evans on March 15. The council said it "wholeheartedly supports the Willits Bypass project." It also expressed disappointment about Evans "disregard for the project's economic and environmental benefits." The letter invited Evans "to become an advocate for the" project and requested she affirm her support through an official statement.

Let It GoRiddles are little poems or phrases that pose a question that needs answering. Riddles frequently rhyme, but this is not a requirement.
Just how successful you will be
Depends on your delivery
Looking forward to a collapse
Don't let your concentration lapse
Exhibiting good lane control
Is key for you to reach your goal
That wondrous crash will greet your ear
When the target's met by a sphere
What am I?
AnswerThe game of bowling.
lines 1-2: The way that you deliver the bowling ball will determine whether you are successful or not e.g. if you get a strike, or if your ball falls into the channel (gutter).
lines 3-4: The "collapse" is that of the pins falling down, which is your objective. It takes concentration to successfully deliver the ball to where you want it to go.
lines 5-6: "Lane control" is keeping the ball on the bowling lane, nothing to do with driving!
lines 7-8: The "wondrous crash" is the sound of the ball hitting the pins, and the pins hitting each other, especially during a strike. The "target" is the set of pins, and the "sphere" is the bowling ball.
What Next?

A GROUP of Chepstow pupils are forging links with local elderly people by taking part in a gardening project.
Eight green-fingered teenagers, from Chepstow School, planted 2,500 bulbs at The Reddings, Bulwark as part of their 'Growing Opportunities' task recently.
One of the aims of this was to brighten up the gardens of the sheltered housing property, owned by Monmouthshire Housing Association, as some of the elderly residents are housebound.
The 14 to 16-year-olds spent four days planting, including one in half-term.
Teacher Angela Jones, who is helping to run the project, said it was fantastic to see the interaction between the two different age groups.
"One of our students went to wash up some of our tea cups and I found her helping take the rollers out of an elderly lady's hair. They love meeting the residents," she said.
The students are now planning a second planted phase for The Reddings, with a 'night and day' theme.

Brentford defender Jake Bidwell is not daunted by the challenge of Championship football and is out to prove he can play at that level.
The 21-year-old, who has taken squad number three for the coming campaign, has been in impressive form for the Bees last term after making his loan switch from Everton permanent this time last year.
Boss Mark Warburton's men, who will host French side OGC Nice, Spanish outfit RCD Espanyol and Premier League team Crystal Palace in their pre-season programme, kicked off preparations for the coming campaign with a training camp in Florida this month.
And Bidwell, who signed a three-year deal in 2013, reckons the squad are relishing the prospect of testing themselves in the second tier of English football.
"When you read through the fixtures there is not really a bad one in there. It is going to tough but we are looking forward to it," he told Bees Player.
"We are going to come up against quicker, stronger and clever players. Myself and the team are just going to enjoy the challenge.
"We've got some young defenders in Harlee Dean and James Tarkowski, but the likes of Tony Craig and Alan McCormack have been there and done it before.
"It is going to be a challenge, but I'm looking forward to proving I can handle it."
Warburton's squad have been training up to three times a day in the States to ensure they hit the ground running come opening day against Charlton Athletic on August 9.
And club captain Kevin O'Connor, who is taking his first steps in a coaching role this term, reckons the hard work will pay off.
"If you make a mistake you are going to be punished at this level because the players are better," he added.
"But I expect us to be one of the fittest teams in the league - like we were last year - and with the quality we have I am expecting us to do well."
Brentford host OGC Nice on July 26, RCD Espanyol on July 30 and Crystal Palace on August 2 in their only pre-season friendlies at Griffin Park.

Tampa Bay Lightning captain Vinny Lecavalier (eye) will play tonight against the Sabres
Tampa Bay Lightning captain Vinny Lecavalier will play Tuesday night against the Sabres, quite amazing given he has a scratch and contusion on his right eye, and only yesterday was talking about how light so bothered him he had to wear sunglasses.
But Lecavalier participated in Tuesday's morning skate and said he had no restrictions, though he still had some discomfort but not enough to keep him out of the lineup. He will wear a visor at least through the end of the regular season.
"It just felt a whole lot better this morning," Lecavalier said. "I'm so surprised (I can play), but the doctor told me the eye heals very rapidly. But I never thought I would play tonight. It feel totally different."
"He says he's fine," coach Guy Boucher said, "and our medical staff says he's fine."
Lecavalier was hurt in the second period of Sunday's 2-0 victory over the Blackhawks when Chicago's Michael Frolik inadvertently hit him in the eye with his stick blade. He sat out the rest of the game and on Monday saw Sabres team ophthalmologist Andrew Seidlecki, who prescribed eye drops to help with the blurry vision and pain.
"It's not 100 percent," Lecavalier said. "But every hour it feels better and better. When I stepped on the ice, it felt fine."
Lecavalier began Tuesday's morning skate with a blue-tinted visor protecting his injured right eye. But after only a few minutes, he had it changed to a clear visor. As the visor was being replaced, Lecavalier tried to join power-play practice, but Boucher would not allow it until the helmet was re-fitted with the new visor.
Lecavalier, who normally does not wear a visor, said wearing the tinted visor made him feel as if he was "in a box."
Other stuff from the morning skate: Dwayne Roloson gets the start in net. ... Defenseman Eric Brewer will sit out a second straight game with a lower-body injury. Boucher reiterated how "minor" is the injury and that if it were the playoffs Brewer would be playing and how Brewer likely will play this weekend. "We just don't want to have something nagging," Boucher said. ... Right wing Steve Downie, benched for a good part of the third period against the Blackhawks, will play but got a long lecture from Boucher about controlling his emotions. Downie went after Chicago defenseman Brent Seabrook after what seemed a clean check. No penalty was called, but Boucher called that lucky and added such behavior could cost the team dearly in a playoff series. ... Defenseman Randy Jones, who will miss his 14th straight game tonight with a high ankle sprain, skated with the team (though he wore a red jersey) for the first time since his injury and looked "pretty good," according to Boucher. The hope is Jones, injured March 7 against the Capitals, can play at least one game before the playoffs. But Jones did not sound as if that would happen. "It will be very difficult to do, but we'll see," he said. ... AHL Norfolk center Blair Jones had two goals and three points in Monday's win over Charlotte. His 175 points make him the AHL Admirals' all-time leader. ... Tonight's game is a big one for the Sabres, who are eighth in the East, three points behind the ninth-place Hurricanes. Asked what the game means to Tampa Bay, which is one-point behind the Penguins for fourth and home-ice in the playoffs, Boucher said, "We don't fight for home ice, we don't fight for the standings. We fight for us getting better. There are things we need to improve on. That's what we're focusing on today." ... If you hadn't noticed, the Lightning has been outshot in every game of its five-game winning streak. Boucher, though, said it is not a problem as in only one game, Sunday against the Blackhawks, did the team have fewer scoring chances.

FROM HERE TO ETERNITY Cast Recording Now Available On iTunes; Out On CD 8/4
The cast recording of the recent West End page-to-stage musical adaptation FROM HERE TO ETERNITY is now available on iTunes to coincide with the UK premiere of the filmed iteration of the show according to a new listing.
Earlier this Spring, multi-award-winning master lyricist Tim Rice officially confirmed that the cast of his current West End musical FROM HERE TO ETERNITY will enter the studio sometime soon to record a cast recording of the score according to a new social media message.
Rice took to his Twitter account earlier this week to write, "Intend to record FH2E cast album before Shaftesbury exit. Thanks to many for ever-increasing kind words and encouragement. Fight the Fight".
Follow Tim Rice on Twitter here.
Starring Darius Campbell, Siubahn Harrison, Robert Lonsdale, Ryan Sampson and Rebecca Thornhill, FROM HERE TO ETERNITY features lyrics by Sir Tim Rice and music by Stuart Brayson, with book by Bill Oakes and direction by Tamara Harvey.
The official plot synopsis of FROM HERE TO ETERNITY is as follows: "Pearl Harbor, 1941, where the girls sing 'don'cha like Hawaii,' the men of G Company sing the blues, and where even on an army base, love and desire are never very far away. When the troubled Private Prewitt falls for the kind hearted escort club girl Lorene, and when his platoon sergeant, Warden, embarks on a dangerous affair with his commanding officer's wife, Karen, the lives of both men are set on a course they cannot control. As war approaches, the worlds of the four lovers and the soldiers of G Company are dramatically ripped apart."
FROM HERE TO ETERNITY began previews on September 30, 2013, at the Shaftesbury Theatre in London's West End before opening on October 23. More information is available at the official site here.

BIDDESTONE skipper James Mitchell concedes his side need little analysis of where their Glos/Wilts Division campaign is coming unstuck at the moment as their woes with the bat continued at leaders Lechlade.
The visitors threw away a promising position as their middle and lower order collapsed at the Manor Ground to hand the hosts a 40-run victory.
Niel Bredenkamp's unbeaten 46 during the opening-day victory over Swindon remains the villagers' highest individual score in this league season to date.
And it was another sorry tale with the bat after Mitchell's men had dismissed Lechlade for a getable 222 in their 50 overs.
"It's not been a successful start to the season and the simple reason is that we can't bat at the moment,'' said Mitchell.
"We've probably got one of the strongest batting line-ups we've had for a long time, but it just isn't happening for us.
"I'm happy with the bowling and fielding, but it's not working out with the bat.
"We'd like to get into the nets to work on it, but the weather hasn't really allowed us to yet.'' Bredenkamp took 3-45 and there were two wickets each for Naeem Khan and Josh Boulton as skipper Joe Breet hit 51, Paul Godding 43 and Asanka Vithanage 41 for Lechlade.
Biddestone had reached 142 for the loss of three wickets, but Dwiane Perry's departure for 33 heralded a collapse as they crumbled to 182 all out, despite 39 from Bredenkamp and 30 from Andy Flynn.
Tristan Hawkes took 4-29, Luke Sellers and Will Nichols claiming a couple of victims each.
Chippenham's hopes of a first win of the season were dashed as their clash against hosts Tewkesbury at The Swilgate was cancelled because of a waterlogged pitch.

What Can We Learn from the LinkedIn Breach?
Posted on Jun 21, 2012 by Linoma Software | | Categories: Data Security
Today is another unfortunate reminder that no matter the size of a company or its industry, a data breach makes headlines.
Not only does it attract negative attention and erode customer confidence, an announcement that your company's data has or may have been compromised can result in some steep financial penalties. If fines associated with violating regulations like HIPAA or state privacy laws don't get you, potential lawsuits might.
Take LinkedIn, for example. Earlier this month, the social network of business professionals reported that nearly 6.5 million encrypted passwords had been leaked online.
Today, Mashable.com reports that LinkedIn is facing a $5 million civil lawsuit from a user claiming that LinkedIn's security policy violated industry standards for database security.
There really are no lessons for the rest of us to learn from this latest breach, because most of us already know what we're supposed to do.
- Keep passwords secure, reasonably complex, and change them regularly.
- Ensure your company is using only the most secure encryption standards like AES or Open PGP.
- Stay abreast of the latest news and techniques for keeping your company security policies and practices up to date and as impenetrable as possible.
- Invest in solutions that streamline your data encryption processes, that include comprehensive auditing and reporting tools, and that ensure the security of your data at rest and in motion.
The question is how much longer can you postpone taking these steps to ensure that your company isn't making news next week with an embarrassing and costly data breach?

WWE's Fault with Darren Young.
by, 09-02-2013 at 09:27 AM (11655 Views)
Darren Young is one half of the Prime Time Players, a heal tag team that would do the job every week. Then one day from the airport from TMZ, Darren Young announced that he was a homosexual. Then everything changed. The entire tag team turned face. Fine. Darren Young's fist singles victory was against Antonio Cesaro. That is where I cross the line. I felt like WWE has really treated this the wrong way. Now sure if you want to acknowledge the homosexual announcement then fine. But why, pray tell, is he going over a man who recently put on a five star match with Daniel Bryan not too long ago? Darren Young isn't even the most charismatic on the tag team. Titus O'neil as the most potential that has yet to be unlocked. Darren Young is a respectable in-ring worker but by no means in the class of Cesaro. How he can go over him just because he made an announcement is beyond me. Just why? WWE has given him a reward for his bravery when in all actuality people coming out of the closet shouldn't be that breaking anymore. Like honestly, why should a man be given a face push just because he has come out of the closet? Is that the requirements for success in the WWE these days? Because if it is, Curtis Axel better come out now and spill the beans. WWE has made Darren Young's situation like he won some sort of award and should get some incentive for it. Young and the PTP should have been given a push for the Tag Titles back when Kofi and R Truth were the tag champs. But they squandered the potential of a young team. But giving Darren Young a pinfall victory over cesaro of all people is beyond me.

6 Silent Ways He Says "I Love You"
Within limits, a few secrets — and even lies — between couples are generally harmless. If you've ever fibbed about those shoes being new ("I've had these forever, I just don't wear them often!") or neglected to tell him that your mom thinks he's a total slob, you're not alone. In America, 43 percent of men and one-third of women have kept major secrets from their partners and approximately three-quarters of people have lied — including those who consider themselves part of a happy couple. As long as you don't take it to extremes — like failing to reveal credit card debt or the fact that you have a monthly lunch-date with your ex — lies that keep the peace and protect feelings are normal.
It depends on the kind of argument. If you bicker about things like who's responsible for carpool, or whether you really need to see your in-laws this weekend, rest assured that so do half of other couples. When it comes to heated arguments, 48 percent of unhappy couples have them regularly, but most happy couples have big fights a few times a year, max. The key to not blowing these disagreements out of proportion maybe dismissing tried and true wisdom, like the rule that you should never go to bed angry. "I personally think it's the better way to go, because you kind of need to sleep on it," says Chrisanna Northrup, co-author of The Normal Bar. However, if you're having screaming fights about money or your future — for instance, whether you want more kids — so often your voice is going hoarse, consider scheduling an appointment with a marriage counselor, who can offer personalized strategies for how to sort things out.

The book party that I'm planning begins in the late afternoon - between lunch and dinner - so a light, afternoon snack will be great for guests. Choose dishes that fit the theme, time, and tone of your book. If certain foods play a prominent role in the book, make variations of those dishes. Pride & Prejudice will be the topic of discussion, and since it's a book about the fabulous frivolity of girls, the menu will consist of appropriately girlie dishes. Wrap long, skinny breadsticks with paper thin slices of proscuitto. An assortment of homemade tea sandwiches are dainty, bite sized, and perfect to munch on while chatting about the delicious Mr. Darcy. You can find the all vegetarian recipes for radish, apple and cheddar, and goat cheese chive tea sandwiches if you

In every conversation I have with enterprise cloud customers they use the words public, private and hybrid to describe the projects or phases of projects they're considering. It's fantastic that people are finally thinking about how they will use the different types of resources available. But this mindset of "many clouds" in your enterprise is flawed. I'm not the first person by a long shot to say this, but it bears repeating because most enterprises aren't listening.
The market— vendors, analysts, etc— has conditioned buyers to think about the cloud as three or more separate projects and buying decisions. There are even more if they separate them by cloud vendor or technology choices.
Let me be clear:
Don't think about your enterprise cloud strategy as different pools of resources from different providers or technologies. Build and deliver ONE cloud to your users.
Think about the cloud as the attributes it provides that you and your users care about. (Go back and read blog posts from the last decade if you aren't sure what they are.) Then, plan how you will make the pools of resources with different characteristics available to your users in various locations and as transparently as possible. Do you need security? The cloud offers that, but the resources might be on-premise. Do you need to be in a specific geography? The cloud can do that, too, but it might be with a specific public provider. Do you need specific performance attributes? The cloud makes that possible, but it might be spread across on-prem and public resources to meet your needs. Your users need to see the cloud as one thing, and you need the governance to make that possible.
So when an enterprise user asks, "Where should I put this app?" your answer should be: "the cloud" – not "cloud No. 5." You should have the tools and processes wrapped around your implementations to make sure that answer actually works.
Agree or disagree? Follow me on Twitter @scottsanchez and tell me!

For May, we've teamed up with Attune Foods to bring you Whole Grain Brunch. We challenged eight food bloggers to develop a whole grain brunch recipe using one of our flours and an Attune Foods cereal. Each week, two bloggers will post a great whole grain brunch recipe. Here is the third of the eight recipes from Meg Steffy Schrier of Meg's Food Reality.
Muffins are a wonderful transportable treat to bring to any brunch. They are also a great way to get some healthy whole grains into your day. I was challenged to develop a whole grain brunch recipe using a Bob's Red mill flour and Attune foods cereal. I decided on crispy brown rice cereal and almond flour to conjure up a healthy muffin filled with healthy fats, protein and carbohydrates. I hope you enjoy it!
- 1-3/4 cups Almond Meal
- 3/4 cup Brown Rice Cereal
- 1/2 cup Unsweetened Coconut Flakes
- 1 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
- 1/2 tsp Sea Salt
- 1 Tbsp Cinnamon
- 2 tsp pure Maple Syrup
- 1 cup pitted Dates
- 2 medium ripe Bananas
- 3 medium Eggs
- 1 tsp Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1/4 cup Canola Oil
- 1/2 cup Soy Milk
Preheat oven to 350°F.
In a food processor, blend brown rice cereal and coconut until fine. Place blended coconut/cereal mixture in a large bowl. Add almond flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir to combine.
In a food processor place dates, bananas, soy milk, canola oil, maple syrup, eggs, and apple cider vinegar. Pulse until dates are full combined into the liquid.
Mix the wet mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients until thoroughly combined. Using a ice cream scoop place portioned scoops into a paper lined muffin tin [note: recipe makes 12 muffins].
Bake for 22-26 minutes, depending on your oven. Let muffins cool on wire rack.
Enjoy these muffins with family and friends, perfect for a transition into spring.
They are power packed with healthy fats, fiber, and protein!

New Licenses Include Jaws, Jurassic Park, More...
As announced at San Diego Comic-Con 2012 (see HERE), Factory Entertainment had acquired a slew of new licenses, including numerous properities from NBC Universal. These include such classic movies as Jaws, Back to the Future, Jurassic Park and Ghostbusters. Toy Fair 2013 unveiled early prototypes for all these films, Factory Entertainment's focus to be on Shakems - premium motion statues, aka deluxe bobbleheads. Please note that everything pictured are early prototypes and NOT finished product.
JAWS: There's just not enough merchandise for this 1975 Steven Spielberg film, so I was extremely excited to see Factory Entertainments many offerings. Slated for release third quarter 2013, deluxe oversized Shakems include "Swimmer" - a three diminsional representation of the Jaws movie poster, "Bruce Shark" - a full on model of the film's star, and "Orca Attack" - the movie's epic finale, similar to the McFarlane toy release years ago.
JURASSIC PARK: Hasbro may be doing new toys for the kiddos (read our story HERE), but Factory Entertainment's items will look swell on display in the home or office. 3rd quarter releases include Dilophosaurus, Raptor Hatchling, oversized T-Rex and the colorful Park Vehicle. Collect the last two to recreate the classic chase scene in the movie!
BACK TO THE FUTURE: Another great movie with a lack of collectibles, Back to the Future will receive several Shakems including Doc, Marty McFly on his hoverboard, and the DeLorean Time Machine. An odd but hilarious entry will be Manure Truck Accident. All these arrive 3rd quarter 2013.
GHOSTBUSTERS: Who you gonna call? Factory Entertainment will be going all out with this license, releasing Shakems of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man (happy and angry versions!), Busters Ray Stanz and Peter Venkman, and Slimer. Slimer will also appear on a cool Retro Lunch Box.
Note: while there are "No Photos Please" signs visible in sections of their booth, Factory Entertainment did authorize us to take photos and share them.

Does anyone know of a sutta that mentions that Lobha and Dosa cannot arise at exact same moment?

Aside from idle curiosity about simultaneity, is this the sort of question spawned by one's meditation, through some aspect of practical Sila, ...or is it just a chase after wind? Perhaps there are no Suttas which decide this issue one way or the other. I am asking, does there even need to be such?
mikenz66 wrote:Thanks for the comments Tep. It seems implicit in the Abhidhamma classification that lobha and dosa (greed and hatred) are mutually exclusive roots (e.g. see I.4 of Comprehensive Manual of Abhidhamma). However, it is stated that mula (delusion) is always present when one of the other two arise.

Win over GJ clinches SWL title for Indians
One battled, one cruised, but both pitchers were impressive.
It was a classic pitcher's duel Tuesday at Canyon View Park with the Montrose Indians coming away with a 3-0 victory over the Grand Junction Tigers. With the win, Montrose (15-1, 8-0) wrapped up the Southwestern League title — its third in the past five years.
Skylar Haynes was masterful on the mound for the Indians, pitching a complete-game two-hitter.
Josh Moore went the distance for the Tigers, allowing only three runs, two of them earned runs.
Haynes started slowly, giving up a hit in each of the first two innings. But after that, he sat down Grand Junction hitters like a busy wedding usher. The Montrose senior sent the final 16 Tigers back to the dugout and had an efficient, nine-pitch inning in the fifth. He ended the game getting 20 of the final 21 hitters out.
In the first, Haynes gave up a single to Ty Dixon and then hit Tristan Lafferty with a pitch. Haynes then struck out Owen Taylor and got Andrew Johnson to ground out to first base.
"Great pitching performance. Both guys really battled, and (Montrose) got a couple of key hits and got the win," Grand Junction coach Donnie Alexander said.
This was the second straight time Haynes outdueled Moore. The Indians picked up a 6-3 win over Grand Junction (9-6, 4-2 SWL) on April 4.
"Grand Junction is a great hitting team," Haynes said. "I just had to locate low in the strike zone, and when I threw curves, to make sure they didn't hang."
Haynes left few pitches in the middle of plate, continually nipping at the corners. He struck out seven and didn't walk a batter.
Haynes drove in the first Montrose run with a single up the middle after Garrett Zarkis doubled with two outs in the second. Montrose picked up an unearned run in the sixth and the third run in the seventh when Jake Bradburn launched a deep RBI triple to right.
Moore started out with a 1-2-3 first but then struggled to keep Montrose runners off the bases. In the second and third he got out of jams, leaving two runners on base. With the bases loaded in the fourth, Moore got Ben Cruz to ground out to third baseman Zack Cox to end the threat and keep the score at 1-0.
Brennan Woodruff singled and scored in the sixth after he stole second and came around on a Grand Junction error.
Montrose coach Landon Wareham said the Indians needed a big performance from Haynes.
"Skylar did a great job on the mound, and we really needed him because we did not swing the bats very well," he said, giving Moore credit for pitching well.
