Beautiful Home - Great Getaway
This was a perfect home for my family to get away and relax. The indoors and outdoors were very well designed and maintained. The kitchen was perfect for my sisters, mother and friends to gather and cook. The beds and linens were so comfortable and we all loved the master suite. My mother is in a wheelchair and the ability to maneuver and use the bathtub was perfect! I will definitely recommend this home to my friends.
We have made it a tradition to visit the Biskra house for our yearly Palm Springs trip. The house is fantastic. Extreme attention to details, the kitchen is stocked with all the essentials, the rooms are amazing, and they have everything you may need to enjoy your vacation in one's "home away from home". The recently added a fire pit which was great to sit around at night! Beth and Eva are amazing to deal with. They communicate back in a timely manner, are extremely friendly, and will accommodate just about anything you may need for your trip. One of the main reasons we come back is because of Beth/Eva are great to deal with and they add personal touches to make our trip extra special! Those do not go unnoticed ladies! We have recommended the Bisra home to our friends and family and will continue to do so. We cannot thank you enough for providing such a wonderful place for us to stay. "See" ya next year!
Amazing property
We were one of the first guests to stay at this property as the owners recently purchased. The property is newly furnished and immaculate. Very quiet and a lovely backyard. You can walk to The River, which is a lovely area filled restaurants, a Starbucks and a movie theater. The location is less than 10 min from Palm Springs. Property feels like a true desert home and my family enjoyed the pool and putting green very much.

A friend of mine who is a big cheese in Chinese food circles (or should we say 'a big tofu' in these parts?) has asked me for ideas in translating his Chinese term shi xue 食学 (literally 'Food Studies'). He is proposing that there should be an academic discipline of this name on with the same status as subjects like chemistry, geography and history. It will encompass ecology; food production from farm to plate (including agriculture, animal husbandry, hunting, fishing, foraging…); cookery; gastronomy; the aesthetics of food; the biological process of eating from mastication through digestion to excretion; food law; nutrition; diet-related diseases; famine and other food disasters; anthropology of food; food education; and so on.
We discussed the literal translation 'Food Studies', but he doesn't think it sounds weighty enough, and would like a snappy one-word term, perhaps a new one. we talked about Foodology and Eatology – but they sound too frivolous. Gastronomy seems focused too much on the pleasures of eating. Gastrography? Is their an existing term that I'm missing that would be more suitable?
Anyway, if there are any imaginative linguists out there who have bright ideas, please let me know and I will pass them on!
Thanks in advance for any inspirations.

I agree to this very much, Noyou. Yes, I am sure it isn't easy to balance the different tanking classes, make sure that the gear is correctly itemized etc, but you know... on one hand, they seem to aim at making some things easier, on the other hand it looks as if there will be a major change again, requiring a total change of focus when it comes to stats... AGAIN.
I was hoping that the introduction of mastery makes things easier to get your gear right, to hit the stats you need to function etc, and for a while, that seemed to work, and now it seems to change a lot again.
I don't mind theory-crafting, don't mind doing a bit of research to make sure I go for the right stats, but at the same time, I don't really feel happy to have to redo that again every patch, for the priority to change, going from "stack this as much as you can" to "ok, balance these two stats, make sure you don't have more of that one over the other, and oh, before you do, also make sure you hit these two caps".
If they want to make things a bit more easy and accessible for new and even old players, I wish they'd try not to turn everything 180 degrees every few months.
As I said, I dont mind keeping up to date, trying to make sure I get the stats right. Then again, there are some players who don't, and it shows when you end up in a PUG with a pally who, I guess because he was still kinda stuck in Wrath, had stacked stamina like a madman, and had almost no block rating. We went through 4 healers or so that night, until he left. I told him that maybe, he'd like to rethink his stats priority, but I dont know if he ever did, and that was just one example.
Sure, you will always have cases like that, tanks who try to tank in the wrong spec or have int gear (as prot warrior) or whatever, but for the sake of casual or returning players, I sometimes wish stuff wouldnt get drastically changed so often, like when it comes to stats

See, the problem is bigger then a nerf. It's the core issues with the class.
If I spec Resto, I'm stuck as a healbot. My spells do little damage, and I don't want the Aggro anyway.
If I am NOT enhancement, my Melee will suck. I'm stuck with 40-50DPS one-handers, or staffs but then I give up my shield so my defense sucks.
If I spec elemental, I have a serious hobble in that I can't CC any one for a long time. We also have shallow mana pools and don't get benes like mana crystals and we can't drink in combat. Our heals are less efficent then a dedicated healer.
In the end, we're always stuck in a support role. Now, before End Game, that doesn't matter. And for the most part, small PVP it doesn't hurt so bad. Where it REALLY kills is in End-game raids where, simply put, if you want a healer, you get a priest, or a Pally, or a Druid, if you want a spell slinger, you get Mage or a Warlock, and if you want a melee DPS, you have your choice. Let's put it this way, no one ever says "LFShaman DM". "LFPriest", yes, "LFMage", yes, "LFTank", yes. Never "LFMShaman". I made a joke on the Blizz boards that the flavor text for Earth Shield should say "You know, they only invited you because their regular priest is at her cousin's wedding."
We are supposed to be flexable, and we are in that we can edit the character how we want. but once we've chosen that, we're limited to support roles.
Now, I've suggested on the Blizz boards one way to fix this: a trainer skill that will significantly make our respecs cheaper after a certain level (I said 40 for sake of an example). This means if I'm needed to be a healer, I can respec Resto more easily, rather then just being let left out.
But please, ignore our comments, we just play the class. We're just twinking little Powergamer Munchkins, right?
No, this class has fundamental flaws. And rather then investigating them and trying to balance them out, they refuse to fix issues (for example, the useless Sentry totem, the hit-or-miss Tremor totem, ect).
I like my Shaman. I enjoy playing her and will continue, but I'm going to make it known that in my opinion, things need to be fixed.

Here is my idea on how to scale Flame Orb for single versus AoE.
You ever fight the Blood Princes? [Of course, your a mage, so you've killed them and every other zombie in ICC. = ) ]
Now tell me. What happens if empowered flame orb hits its target without being kited. Insta-death right?
So lets say flame orb wizzes over a pack of mobs. It will do what it normally does, spread tendrils of scorching energy at anyone unfortunate enough to be underneath it.
However, a talented Flame Orb is said to explode on impact. In this way, it could be talented to explode when it 'hits' a boss (similiar to how Deep Freeze does damage only to bosses), dealing massive, single target, damage.
Whaddya think?

Many people in the Two-River area look forward to the Visiting Nurse Association Show House Event each year. Not only are the houses fabulous, but the event also offers an opportunity for great food and shopping.
This year, in Rumson will host the Stately Homes By-the-Sea Café.
"Our executive chef Bob Belt has prepared a unique menu using the freshest ingredients available that complements the grand Holly Hill country estate," said Steve Bidgood, the regional partner for Salt Creek Grille, Rumson and Princeton.
The was built in 1934 and wasoriginally owned by New Jersey State Senator and Superior Court Judge Thomas Brown. The 12-acre property includes dozens of specimen holly trees, from which the estate derived its name, cultivated by Judge Brown.
"I feel a certain kinship with Judge Brown. He was well known to be a dedicated supporter of his community to the extent of hiring all local contractors to build Holly Hill during difficult economic times," explained Bidgood. "Salt Creek Grille hires locally and we have done business with local purveyors since we opened our doors on our beautiful waterfront location in 1998. We are proud to have been selected to operate the Café at this year's Designer Show House event."
The cafe will offer Continental breakfast treats, lunch and refreshments under an elegant tent on the grounds of the show house in Middletown from May 3 to June 12, 2011. The café will be open Tuesday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
"Our private dining room managers are looking forward to serving visitors at the Designer Show House in an el fresco atmosphere," said Bidgood.
Some of the menu items available at Salt Creek Grille Café will be muffins, bagels, fruit salad, juice, coffee and tea for Continental breakfast, and a Quiche du Jour, Sandwiches, Paninis, a Chef's Entrée and several salad selections including the beloved Salt Creek Grille signature salad with Granny Smith apples, gorgonzola, walnuts and balsamic vinaigrette served atop young fresh lettuce for lunch. Then, there is dessert – cookies, cupcakes and brownies.
In addition the the menu items listed above, there will be many more options including Lobster Roll dish available Friday through Sunday only. To view the menu visit www.saltcreekgrille.com

My final outcome for my study of the "Typography - Book Cover" unit.
This brief was to design a cover for the popular Penguin book "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest".
Here, the image is a huge metaphor - combined of three things:
Firstly, the two birds are the most obvious here. They symbolise Randie and Chief, two of the main characters within the novel. The birds are escaping together, as the duo plan to do in the book.
Secondly, we have the cube. Here, it simply symbolises the mental ward, or their "prison".
Lastly, we have the repeat pattern on the cube. In my original development ideas, the cube was to be blank, and very skeletal looking. Here, I filled it with a pattern. The white and black dots represent eyes - a sort of "Big Brother" idea, symbolising Nurse Ratched's watchful eyes, and military regimes.
The lack of colour also helps to represent Nurse Ratched's regime - no fun, no laughter, no colour. Grey.
The typefaces are simple, ranging from Helvetica to Didot. The Didot featured here helps to maintain the "Penguin Classics" feel of the novel, and is also passive enough to allow the image to represent the novel itself.
I am very pleased with this outcome.Tuesday Mar 3 @ 07:55pm

Trainer Tools
So you want to become an interpreter trainer?
Medical interpreter trainers are in high demand and in short supply. It is not easy to find those that have interpreter and training skills combined. It is even harder to find language coaches in minority languages with the qualifications required to teach others. We hope the information on this page is helpful as you explore the possibility of entering the world of interpreter training. The information contained on this page is by no meands extensive and is just a glimpse designed to help one get started.
Teaching, like other skills is learned more easily by some more than by others. While in principle anyone can learn to become a trainer, it is not for everyone. First of all, you need to think about some of the skills a good trainer must possess.
Facilitation skills:
A trainer, in addition to being a teacher, is also a group facilitator. Given the diversity of skill levels and ability to train a class, the ability to work with a group is an important skill for a trainer to possess.
Public Speaking Skills:
Future trainers have to feel comfortable with public speaking. Not only the ability to speak in front of a group but a clear voice with projection and void of a heavy accent.
General Education:
A Bachelor Degree is usually required for teaching positions around the world. Those who do not have one should invest first in their general education.
Intepreter Training:
Being a teacher isn�t enough to teach interpreting, in the same way that being an interpreter isn�t enough to teach interpreting. The ideal interpreter trainer has training in medical interpreting . Would you want to be taught by someone who has the experience but is not aware of the theory, terminology and research about the profession? It is improbable to get the recognition or respect as an instructor if one does not have training in what one is teaching.
Interpreting Experience:
Being trained in interpreting is not enough to teach interpreting. This is a practice profession and without experience the instructor would not have realistic scenarios and examples to draw from. Most practice profesions are best taught by those who have lived the experiences and challenges of the profession. It is improbable to get the recognition or respect as an instructor if one does not have experience in what one is teaching.
Training in Education:
Just as being bilingual doesn't make one an interpreter, being an interpreter doesn't automatically qualify one to train others in interpreting. Most teachers go to college and get a Bachelors in Education. Some professionals get a Masters in Education as a means to get the training needed to become an educator. For those that do not want to invest years into training to train, there are several workshops, certificate programs, or train the trainer programs to get one started. However, if you are thinking seriously in becoming a professional educator or instructor and especially for faculty jobs in university settings, consider a Masters in Education as a worthwhile investment.
One important point to remember is that training, as interpreting, is an ongoing learning experience. That is the beauty of teaching, you are always in the position to learn.
Specializations within training and different types of trainers:

2. Curriculum Designers
3. Instructor
4. Facilitator / Trainer
5. Training Manager/Director
6. Instructor / Educator
7. eLearning Specialist
8. Online Facilitator / Moderator

Note: This is not an extensive list. Please search for other programs on the internet.
What about programs specifically for those who want to train interpreters?
There are two categories of Train the Trainers
1) One is a program to train individuals to present a particular copyrighted training program curriculum which is to be presented exactly as instructed, with no change in the content or pacing of the materials given to students. It usually involves an organization sending one staff member, you, to an outside training class to learn about a curriculum, to be licensed to teach other people on staff. The trainer is not licensed, it is the organization that sent the trainer that is licensed. If the trainer leaves that organization, they are not authorized to teach that curriculum elsewhere.
Four organizations offer TOT programs that license organizations to utilize their curriculums to train trainers.
Cross Cultural Health Care Program (Bridging the Gap)
Cross Cultural Communications Systems
Cross-Cultural Communications, LLC
2) The second is a program that trains individuals to instruct interpreters and does not dictate which specific curriculum to use. On the other hand, the individuals who are trained have to come up with their own materials and exercises and the knowledge areas and specific skills that need to be taught. In this case the trainer earns a credential that does not belong to the organization for whom they work but belongs to the professional trainer and is transferrable wherever the trainer goes. The Monterey Institute for International Studies offers a program in collaboration with the University of Maryland that teaches interpreter pedagogy. For more information please go to
Monterey Institute of International Studies
Nova Southeastern University's Master of Arts in Teaching & Learning, 1 Year Masters

Wednesday's, 3:00-5:00pm
The Teen HYPE Bike Program is for teens that have access to the HYPE Teen Center at the Library. Besides learning some greasy mechanical skills we want to talk about bikes, how youth fit in and how we all fit together here in Detroit specifically. Here are a few questions we'll be exploring:
- What kind of bike is THAT? Activities that require specific types of bikes.
- What would your dream bike be? How people use bikes every day.
- How Detroit is changing/Is Detroit the motor City? Research Shinola Bike company.
- Working Bikes Discussion- when is it broken? Recyclability, maintenance, sustainability.
- Where do you ride your bike? Do you know the bike laws for Michigan? Bike Infrastructure, what it is and does it help.
- Is any bike okay to ride? Is there a difference between kids and adult bikes? Bike Sizes and Equivalent Discussion
- Describe a cyclist. What are they like? Who are they? What are the demographics of cyclists– why does that group of people cycle and not others? Why do these stereotypes exist at all?
- Why does biking suck? Why don't you bike? When biking isn't appropriate for everyone– who can't bike? When can't you bike? Do I have to own a car?
We'll also be painting bikes, riding bikes (yes, indoors) and fixing bikes. Come join the conversation!

Copy/Paste or use the Design Center.
Registered forum members do not see this ad.
Isn't there a way to copy from one drawing to another with both drawings opened and both visible on your screen? I thought that one of the changes Autocad made a few years ago was the capability of moving/copying objects from one drawing to another with both being opened. I thought there was like some type of drag/drop
Copy/Paste or use the Design Center.
"A narrow mind and a fat head invariably come on the same person" Zig Zigler
Right-click and on the flyout menu you have Copy and Copy with Base Point. In the second drawing right-click and select either Paste or Paste as Block.
"I have only come here seeking knowledge. Things they wouldn't teach me of in college." The Police
Eat brains...gain more knowledge! I've gone over to the dark side.
Thanks, one reason I am asking is because I have already tried that method and when I pasted it actully pasted something else. I have even done WBLOCK and same thing happened even as far as bringing in same thing it did when I copyed.
Drag-n-drop also works as long as you don't need to drop the selection precisely. Just select the objects, left click on any part of the selection that isn't a grip, and drag it into the other drawing. like this http://www.screencast.com/t/s2gZdO6P
I use it all the time (the right-click method) and can probably count on two fingers the number of times I got an unexpected result. I chalked it up to an OIE (Operator Induced Error). Bottom line: I was rushing to get through something and did not pay attention to what I was doing. My bad. I don't like "my bads".

Just was curious if anyone else has had that problem. Weird thing is using the wblock when going to insert the block it gives you a preview of what is being inserted (which was what I made) but when I go to insert it was something totally different. Even had my boss try it. Every method he used he got same results I was.

I can't stress you enough about how important these exercises are for your drawing hand. You don't wanna get CTS of Tendonitis and similar stuff that will prevent you from making art or even hold a pencil.
How appropriate as I was just having to roll my wrists at times on Sunday night. (Only from typing and such though.) Personally I already knew the carpal tunnel exercises, but not the tendonitis ones. Still cool to see.
This is helpful for anyone who uses their hands predominantly on a daily basis, in their work, etc.!
Everything they teach about Egypt in most schools is distorted. The people of Egypt called their country Kemet not Egypt. Kemet means black land. Egypt is a Greek concept. Egypt is derived from the Greek word Aegyptos. The greeks called the kemetians language hieroglyphs, but the people of Kemet called their language Medu Neter. Even the names we learn of the gods are wrong. Isis Kemetic name is Aset. Anubis is Anpu. Horus is Heru. Osiris is Wesir. I'm doing research to find as many of the true Kemetic names that I can.Europeans Messed Up.. Again
i posted this 4 months ago and it has gotten over a 1,000 reblogs…So i'm sendin it back into rotation. Power of knowledge !!
The Greeks also messed up when they interpreted the religious system. The worship of one God in many forms is the deal. Not multiple Gods. They did not worship the Sun, it was the manifestation of God in the sun, the water, the moon ect. What each element represented.
Oooh, this is interesting °-°

MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- One of his first memories of March Madness came years ago when he was a kid visiting his grandfather in Long Island, N.Y., for the summer.
William Conner Donovan and his grandfather, Bill Donovan, would escape back in time to watch William John Donovan -- better known as Gators basketball coach Billy Donovan -- on grainy video tapes.

It would seem that our officers and I won't have time to focus on raiding dragon soul as we had initially planned, as we all want to focus on the more important part of life; school. We will take a hiatus until 'Mists of Panderia' is released, which is sure to be soon (tm). Untill that time, all my spare time will go into playing diablo3, which looks terrific
The Ventrilo server is offline atm due to a bounced payment, but i will bring it back online later in January, in time for raids to start again.
Come new year, we will have to switch out some members on the raid team, due to the previous raiding times being too short, and hindering progression. We thank you for your understanding, and will contact the affected individuals at such a time when the choice is made. We need people who are dedicated, and also have the possibility of staying with the team, for everyones mutual benefit, and not taking off too early, not bothering to learn from mistakes, or properly prepare. For this coming raiding season we will also try to put together a loot distribution system, og if not, clear loot distribution rules for our raid team, as there were some grievances last year regarding loot distribution, although we tried to be as fair as we could (As reflected in the earlier post on this site).
The new loot distribution will be, as i have concluded from talking with officers within the guild, more focused on progressing individuals, and strengthening one players dps, healing or tanking, in other words, gearing one player at a time. Such a system would work for two reasons, first, because gearing up one player is much wiser than simply throwing loot around. We will strengthen the core raiders, who always show up, and always put their time and skills into it. Secondly, it will lead to a goal for us in the raid group to work towards. By only offering gear to players who actually show up, and pull their weight, it encourages us to do exactly that. Such a system would be compatible with a DKP system, but this remains to be discussed with our raid leader, and officers. Such a system is good in itself, but will not function unless the whole raid consists of reliable players, like guild members. This is the reason, why, regrettably, we will have to replace certain players who performed disappointingly, either in pure performance, or in attendance, participation and team-building. Until then, have a happy holiday! I look forward to playing with all of you in the months to come of the new year. Although we all have killed Deathwing in LFR by now, the real challenge still remains.
Be sure to leave your "two cents" in the comment section!
Petanca, GM Powerkings
There will be a break in raiding ,from now, untill the start of january. The reason for this break is largely due to us being a casual guild, with many students, and thus many exams. As we would like people to focus on those, and get good grades (me included) we have postponed raiding. Also, a lot of our members will be working this holiday, trying to manage our student loans. I imagine we will start raiding about 5th of january, (earliest) and until then i encourage you to PUG, use the raid finder, or if you want leave the guild. If you stay, see you next year!
Good job on defeating Alysrazor guildies, we now have 4/7 bosses on farm. As for Baleroc, we had a few nice tries, but after the guild members left it went downhill. This is why we need all guild members to meet up for raids, as pugs just don't cut it. (I do understand people that have to leave and go to bed, and everyone who shows up and are dedicated every raid, ignore this message).
Here is a picture of Baleroc raping the raid:
Until the next time, have fun in wow!
All raiding guild members should head over here and register. To do so, you have to first verify your email, and then verify that the character in question is indeed yours. To do that you will have to log into the game, unequip some items, and then log out, making sure that your armory profile is updated. To check out our page on the site, and to make sure the correct data is supplied, click the link above.
This is our current rank on Darksorrow
This is the loot distribution so far. I will keep making posts like these after every raid, to help us keep track of what players receive which gear, and to try and gear up all participating members equally
Robes of smoldering devastation
Lightforged Elementium Hammer
Funeral Pyre
Spidersilk Spindle
Skullstealer Greataxe
Spire of scarlet paine
Bracers of the Dread Hunter
Lightforged Elementium Hammer
Legplates of Frenzied Devotion
Ranseur of Hatred
Widows's Kiss
Dreadfire Drape
The Lightforged Elementium Hammers were crafted for the healers, and paid for in part by BOE's that dropped in the raid.
- Petanca, GM Powerkings
"At the moment, we have a problem where people are not showing up at raids, or show up, but have to leave early. We also have a problem where we have too much melee dps(dk, warrior), and lack ranged, and healers, we need different classes so we can buff the group, So, due to this "discovery", we can not offer a raid spot to Morgrath :( if Ungues is online. Zepospanda can choose, to stay as healer, and Luxter will be set to Damage as an Enhancement shaman, or Luxter as healer and Zepos as Feral. But for the group its preferred, due to buffs, that Zepos heals. (See the earlier post for a breakdown of classes and the buffs they bring to the raid).
The situation between Twits an Grom has to be solved in between the deathknights, "(i vote for a duel in Nagrand arena while the guild cheer and applaud, and the looser will get stripped naked, and dropped from Petanca´s flying mount )"
"There is also another way to solve this, the way we do that, is by making a second raid group, promote a Team 2 raid leader that manage a raid. And then the Tier 2 are on they're own, since Twits, Morgrath and Zepospanda already have quite desent gear, & count as 30% of a raid it should be easy for them to find dedicated players to join, if you want to do so. Me (Jabb) can also assist you in your first raid as a new group, in being raid leader, and assist in finding players, if you want that"

Gone is the restaurant and a second story business.
In are bathrooms, and a kitchen for a potential new Credit Island Lodge.
The task force studying the issue prioritized a list of about 50 items that a new lodge would need.
The first thing a new lodge needs is flood protection, the Mississippi has cut off the lodge from Davenport for the fourth time this year.
The task force needs to weigh what kind of flood proofing the building would have.
They could let the river run through it by abandoning the ground floor, or they could recommend building flood walls like the Bandit's stadium has.
Trick is, they've only got $1.2 million in the bank.
"We want to keep the existing lodge, that's what our hearts want, feasibility money wise there's going to be a lot to deal with in the future," says Friends of Credit Island Vice President Mary Cormier.
She helped give the thumbs up and thumbs down to a long list of wants for a new lodge. Separating the wishes from the must haves. The task force's big must so far,
"To have a safe place and weather controlled, when it's cold outside it warm inside," says Cormier.
Going through that list took five minutes, the larger debate centers around what to do with the current building.
"I think there's portions of the building that could be incorporated into a new building, certainly the architecture of a new building could incorporate some of the brick, and the lentils that are in the existing building," says Task Force member Bill Ashton.
He's a structural engineer and says pieces of the building can be reused again. One idea is to give the ground floor to the river and move the climate controlled activities to the second floor. Building decks or removing some of the burnt up second floor.
"If it's beneficial from a cost stand point, you can use parts of the existing building, there's a good fire place, there's a good foundation, certainly you could use parts of the building," says Ashton.
That idea is not popular with all the members though. They want to see the lodge remain as intact as possible, but they realize money is their biggest obstacle.
"I believe the cost effective thing will end up being the building will be taken down and the new lodge will be built that's elevated," says Ashton.
There is no set design plan at this point.
That will begin to be hashed out in a meeting the week after the fourth of July.
The task force knows it needs some amount of space that is climate controlled.
It can begin thinking about what that space could look like as long as the flood mitigation requirement is met.
The city council wants a report from the task force by the fall.

House Speaker Boehner Prolific Fundraiser For The Party
July 8, 2013 by UPI - United Press International, Inc.
WASHINGTON (UPI) — House Speaker John Boehner may have problems keeping the caucus united, but data from his office indicate the Ohio Republican has no difficulty as a fundraiser.
Boehner, a familiar face for years on the fundraising circuit, raised more than $30 million so far this year, a figure his political office provided to Politico indicated.
The sum is slightly ahead of the amount he raised at a similar point in the 2012 election cycle, Politico reported Sunday.
Since January, Boehner has contributed more than $5 million to the National Republican Congressional Committee, $350,000 to House members and candidates and $250,000 to the Republican National Committee, the information indicated.
"As House Republicans continue working to create jobs and hold the administration accountable on Benghazi and the IRS, the speaker appreciates the strong support we receive each day from across the country," Boehner spokesman Cory Fritz said. "Every dollar is needed as we prepare to face one of the most well-financed, well-organized political machines in modern history."
NRCC Chairman Greg Walden, R-Ore., said no one was "more dedicated to growing our majority" than Boehner.
Republicans, who hold a 17-seat majority, go into 2014 favored to keep the House because the 2010 congressional redistricting process was handled, in large part, by Republican-dominated statehouses.
Politico said the Cook Political Report projects Republicans, who lost eight seats in 2012, should see a net gain of between two and seven seats in the midterms.

TOWN OF DARIEN (WKOW) -- Authorities identified the man who died Tuesday in a two-vehicle crash on Highway 11 in Walworth County.
The Walworth County Sheriff's Department says the man who died is 44-year-old Carlos Cantu of Lake Geneva.
Deputies say Cantu was eastbound on Hwy. 11 when he lost control of his pickup truck on a snow-covered road and slid into the westbound lane, where the truck was broadsided by a milk hauler.
Cantu was pronounced dead at the scene. Investigators say he was wearing his seatbelt.
The driver of the milk hauler, Michael Forstrom, was not hurt.
TOWN OF DARIEN (WKOW) -- Walworth County deputies responded to a report of a vehicle vs. semi crash on Highway 11 just east of Old 89 Road shortly before 11:30 Tuesday morning.
Upon arrival, deputies found two vehicles had come to rest in the westbound lane of Hwy. 11. The vehicles involved were a westbound semi milk hauler and an eastbound vehicle.
Preliminary investigation shows the eastbound vehicle lost control on the snow-covered road and slid into the westbound lane. The semi struck the vehicle broadside on the driver's side.
The driver and sole occupant of the vehicle was killed upon impact. The Walworth County Coroner pronounced him dead at the scene. No further information about the vehicle or driver will be provided, pending family notification.
33-year-old Michael Forstrom, of Brooklyn, was the driver of the milk hauler. He was wearing his seat belt and was not injured in the crash.
Wisconsin State Patrol was notified and a member of their post-crash truck team was sent to inspect the semi. The Walworth County Crash Investigation Unit was also dispatched to investigate the crash. Also assisting were the Delevan-Darien Police Department, Darien Fire and Rescue, and the Walworth County Coroner's Office.

AIG Bonuses: Enter Force Majeure -- Stage Left
While lots of folks are scrambling around looking for contract-law defenses to retention payments such as those given employees at failed AIG, Congress is looking at resolving the issue by introducing a new player: force majeure. The Pay for Performance Act of 2009 would amend the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (which authorized the Troubled Assets Relief Program), to retroactively ban payments of non-performance-related bonuses and "excessive cmpensation" for firms that receive TARP payments. The rules govern not just executives, but all employees at such firms. Here's the key language:
PROHIBITION: No financial institution that has received or receives a capital investment under [TARP] or with respect to the Federal National Mortgage Association, the Federal Home Loan Montage Corporation, or a Federal home loan bank . . . , may, while that capital investment remains outstanding, make a compensation payment to any executive or employee under any pre-existing compensation arrangement, or enter into a new compensation payment arrangement, if such compensation payment or compensation payment arrangement--
(A) provides for compensation that is unreasonable or excessive, as defined in standards established by the Secretary in accordance with paragraph (2); or
(B) includes any bonus, retention payment, or other supplemental payment that is not directly based on performance-based measures set forth in standards established by the Secretary in accordance with paragraph (2).
The law directs the Treasury Secretary to develop standards for deciding whether compensation is excessive and to set up guidelines for what types of performance bonuses are reasonable.
That will take some help. Treasury is looking for data and mapping analyists, financial analysts, financial economists, and risk analyists. Pay goes as high as $133,000. Details here.

Upstate New York is beautiful in the fall, and beautiful in the winter, too, if you've got someone to shovel the snow for you.

If you're interested, get in touch with Associate Dean Lisa Dolak.
For those who prefer sunnier climes and the sounds of Western Swing, you could do a lot worse than San Antonio (right), where St. Mary's University School of Law is looking for a visitor who can teach Contracts and other business-related courses. Contact Associate Dean Victoria Mather for details.

Auburn Hills, MI (Sports Network) - Rodney Stuckey scored a game-high 38 points and added seven assists, as the Detroit Pistons held on for a 98-92 victory over the Sacramento Kings.
Stuckey, in his second year in the NBA out of Eastern Washington, helped the Pistons extend their win streak to six games and had his second big performance in that stretch. In the first contest of the streak, a 104-98 decision over Chicago on December 23, Stuckey netted a career-high 40 points.
He is averaging 22.7 points during Detroit's win streak, and has helped the club overcome an injury to star guard Richard Hamilton, who missed his fourth consecutive game Friday with a groin injury. The Pistons also played without Rasheed Wallace (sore right foot) and Antonio McDyess (bruised ribs) Friday night.
Allen Iverson and Tayshaun Prince added 23 points each for Detroit, while Prince also grabbed 10 boards. Amir Johnson finished with 14 rebounds and 10 points in the win.
Brad Miller had 25 points and 16 boards to pace the Kings, who have lost seven of their last eight. John Salmons had 21 points and Kevin Martin 20 in the loss.
The Kings, trailing for most of the contest, were down 85-75 just short of the midway point of the final stanza. But Sacramento chipped away, and with 2:46 left, a Bobby Jackson triple made it an 89-86 contest. However, the Kings couldn't get closer, as Stuckey helped Detroit hold on for the win.
After Jackson's shot, he drove for a layup and, following a missed three- pointer, he drove the lane again, fooling a Kings defender with a behind-the- back dribble. He went up for the layup, which fell, and was fouled in the process.
Stuckey drained the free throw for a 94-86 edge with 2:01 on the clock. Sacramento missed its next two shots, though Stuckey was off the mark on the other end.
After the teams traded points, the Kings made four consecutive free throws to make it a four-point game. But Iverson drilled a pullup jumper from the right side with under 20 seconds left to give the Pistons a 98-92 lead, and Detroit held on for the win.
Detroit used a 15-3 run in the first quarter to take a 29-18 lead going into the second, but Sacramento clawed back to get within 45-44 at the break.
Back-to-back shots from Prince and Jason Maxiell more than four minutes into the third quarter stretched Detroit's lead to 58-49, and the Pistons led 73-66 going into the fourth.

Global public–private partnership
Global public–private partnership (GPPP) is a new governance mechanism to foster cooperation between an international intergovernmental organisation like the United Nations and private companies.
It is an effort to move away from hierarchical, vertical, inter-governmental institutions such as the World Health Organization (WHO), towards horizontal, participative, coordinating arrangements between private organizations, companies, and other non-governmental institutions. Since it is a fairly new mechanism, there is no defined structure or standard organization.
Existing GPPPs strive to increase affordable access to essential drugs in developing countries, promote handwashing with soap to reduce diarrhoea, and to introduce digital opportunities to developing countries.

Ash knob umbrellas - beautiful, unique natural woods.
Ash woods for umbrellas are "seasonal". Certain seasons of Ash may not yield proper growth suitable to be turned into handles or stick shafts - meaning they aren't available to be bought sometimes!
Also, all the natural handles are unique, so snap them up if you see something you love!

All the natural wood handles always come in different shapes and sizes. This one had the face of spawn on it.
