Important initiative in the name of Justice !
An anti-Trans bias in an "LGBT" group is certainty not unknown. Look at Stonewall under Ben Summerskill, for example.
If this is what happened here, it's well worth looking into to.
But the detail is thin, and padding the story out with details of the overall campaign does not give any answers.
Unfortunatley the struggle for trans is far from over because it's a gender issue as apposed to a sexuality issue and most people (LGB included) are very ignorant when it comes to gender. Many gay men especially still have that 1950's mindset of what it means to be masculine or femenine and are frightened of people who break the gender binary.
On behalf of all the trans people who have been made to feel excluded or unwanted be the rest of the LGBT community, I am sorry. I hope you know there are people out there who do understand and who do care.
Oh-oh, dear Mr. Pink ! You are just a wonderful and rich person. It is extremely positive for me to read what you are saying with few words in this comment. For sure many, many around the world agree with you ! May Earth, Sunshine and Life bless YOU ! The very deepest and warmest wishes from Norway-
this is an ongoing battle far from over!!

Topic: Plant Identification
Title: Plant identification in Mojave Desert
Answered by: Nan Hampton
QUESTION:I need help in identifying a shrub like plant that I found in SW Utah near Beaver Dam, UT (Which is near the Arizona/Nevada border). It is approximately 12 inches in height with profuse stems originating from a crown. The branches lack leaves and rarely branch, remaining straight the entire length and are light yellow/green in color. The flowers are vase shaped, about an 1/8th of an inch long, turned upwards in a raceme. They look like Grape Hyacinths, but pointing upward along the stem. There appears to be three to four stamens that do not protrude from the flower. They were blooming in the northern most part of the Mojave in January through March. Any help you can give is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
My best guess is Thamnosma montana (Desert rue). Here are photos and more information from USDA Plants Database, Mojave National Preserve, Anza-Borrego Desert Natural History Association and University of California-Berkeley's CalPhotos.
If this isn't it, here are a couple of other possibilities:
Salazaria mexicana (Bladder sage) Here are more photos and information from Southwest Environmental Information Network and Northern Arizona Flora.
Streptanthella longirostris (Longbeak streptanthella) Here are photos and more information from Southwest Colorado Wildflowers and CalPhotos.
Here are links to Mojave Desert Wildflowers Wildflower List, Desert Wildflower from Desert USA and Southwest Colorado Wildflowers arranged by flower color that you can search.
In case none of these is your plant and if you have a photo or photos, please visit our Plant Identification page to find links to several plant identification forums that will accept photos of plants for identification.

Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner have walked their last Twilight red carpet with the arrival this weekend of the series finale The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2.
Now, they must step into careers of their own using the superstardom the multi-billion-dollar franchise has provided them.
Making that transition from a beloved film series with a fervent fan base can be tricky.
Do you stick to the same kinds of roles that people came to love you for and maintain the safety of familiarity? Or do you veer drastically in the other direction to prove to the world that you have range - that you're so much more than just a mopey teenage girl or a hunky set of abs?
Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe, for example, has successfully made choices that showcase his versatility, from appearing on stage naked in a Broadway production of Equus to the gothic horror film The Woman in Black.
His Harry Potter co-star, Emma Watson, played a damaged party girl this year in The Perks of Being a Wallflower, a character who couldn't have been more different from the fastidious Hermione Granger.
The three core Twilight stars have all struck while the iron was hot, making a variety of films in between the five Twilight Saga installments about high schooler Bella Swan and the vampire and werewolf who competed for her affections.
Stewart was the best known of the Twilight trio before being cast as Bella.
She'd played Jodie Foster's daughter in the 2002 thriller Panic Room and a commune singer who befriends Emile Hirsch's character in Sean Penn's Oscar-nominated Into the Wild (2007).
Her choices between the Twilight movies have run the gamut, from playing a young Joan Jett in the 2010 biopic The Runaways to a fairy-tale warrior princess in this summer's Snow White and the Hunstman.
Next month, she'll appear in On the Road, based on the iconic Jack Kerouac novel. ''Kristen seems to do a lot of indie movies. Snow White and the Huntsman is more of an outlier in terms of being a blockbuster,'' said blogger and Twilight expert Cleolinda Jones, author of the Movies in 15 Minutes series.
''But it seems like she's got the kind of personality where she's got to do what she has to do ... she's not thinking in terms of career strategy.''
Andrei Constantinescu of the Dallas-based Legacy Casting says he'd like to see Stewart mix it up even more. ''Her non-Twilight film choices are bold and different to a point, but her dark and broody acting style, similar to her real-life persona, is a bit played,'' said Constantinescu, whose work as an extras casting director includes the TNT series Dallas.
''I'd love to see her in a romantic workplace comedy like The Devil Wears Prada.''
Pattinson has made some of the most daring and impressive choices of the three of them. Before being cast as the swoony vampire Edward Cullen, the lanky British actor appeared in another blockbuster franchise as Hogwarts student Cedric Diggory in 2005's Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
In 2009, he played Salvador Dali in the barely seen Little Ashes, and last year he starred opposite Reese Witherspoon in the circus romance Water for Elephants - although Associated Press reviewer David Germain wrote there was ''barely a spark'' between the two.
But Pattinson also has worked with the likes of David Cronenberg, starring this year in the acclaimed Canadian director's financial drama Cosmopolis, which takes place almost entirely inside a limousine.
And he'll soon work with Cronenberg again in Maps to the Stars, and also begin shooting Werner Herzog's Queen of the Desert.
Jones says Pattison has wisely chosen to parlay his Twilight fame to collaborate with serious directors and actors. ''He knows he has a certain box office appeal so the fangirls are going to see him no matter what he's in,'' she said.
''People are willing to work with him the first time, they see all this potential he has, then they want to come back and work with him again.''
Constantinescu echoed those thoughts: ''He's the one to watch for additional films down the line,'' he said. ''We are just scratching the surface with Robert.''
Then there's Lautner, who was just 15 when he auditioned for the role of the sensitive, muscular werewolf Jacob Black. He'd appeared in a few films by then, including playing the title character of Sharkboy in 2005's 'The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl in 3-D.'
In between the ''Twilight'' films, he stuck to lighter fare. He was part of the ensemble cast of 2010's Valentine's Day in a romantic subplot opposite Taylor Swift.
But Lautner's leading-man debut was last year's Abduction, a title that naturally inspired plenty of puns about his famously toned frame.
The thriller from director John Singleton found Lautner playing a high-school student who gets caught up in a web of intrigue. AP reviewer Jake Coyle wrote that Lautner ''handles himself reasonably well'' but the script was the film's ''major deficiency.''
Constantinescu says he doesn't expect Lautner will stray far from crowd-pleasing fare.
''He's very good at playing the young, muscular jock or hero,'' he said.
''Similar to Kristen, I'd love to see roles that offer Taylor different objectives than to be the hero, take his shirt off and save the day. However, I'm not sure that the public would believe him as anything more than the borderline superhero he has become famous for.''
Jones agreed: ''He's not going to be in the next mumblecore indie movie,'' she said of Lautner.
''I'm not sure where he goes with this after age 30. His current trajectory is kind of clear, but I don't know what happens when he grows out of his dimples.''

Detroit cop says he didn't mean to kill girl
Joseph Weekley told jurors he feels "devastated and depressed" by the death of the 7-year-old girl
By Ed White
Associated Press
DETROIT — A Detroit police officer charged in the fatal shooting of a 7-year-old girl says he unintentionally pulled the trigger during a struggle with the victim's grandmother.
Joseph Weekley told jurors Thursday he didn't immediately realize he had shot Aiyana Stanley-Jones during the 2010 house raid. Weekley is charged with involuntary manslaughter.
He says he didn't know Aiyana was asleep on the couch and that he saw only laundry and blankets during the search for a murder suspect.
He says he feels "devastated and depressed" by what happened.
Weekley says Aiyana's grandmother, Mertilla Jones, grabbed his gun — a claim she denied in earlier testimony. On cross-examination, Weekley conceded that it would be his fault if he failed to use "ordinary care" resulting in injury to another.

Tennessee Tech alumni find work in an assortment of industries including the engineering services industry, the health care industry, and the aerospace and defense industry. Among Tennessee Tech grads, the manufacturing industry is a commonly chosen career field. Graduates of Tennessee Tech earn about $62K on average.
There is a sizable difference between men's post-college salaries and women's: the median for the former is $67K, but the median for the latter is only $49K.
Former Tennessee Tech students with an interest in making money consider becoming Structural Engineers, the highest-paying gig (average earnings amount to approximately $112K) among this alumni group. Other well-paid jobs include Engineering Project Managers (around $111K) and Engineering Group Managers ($93K). Relative to other positions, compensation dwindles for Systems Administrators; alumni in this role face average salaries of $47K.
Many Tennessee Tech students are Nashville, Tenn.-bound following college. With a median salary of about $83K, Huntsville, Ala. represents the highest-paid city popular among Tennessee Tech grads. Living in Cookeville after college is common among Tennessee Technological University grads, whose love for the area is more important than the below-average median pay ($43K). Nearby Knoxville, Tenn. and Chattanooga, Tenn. also rank high on the list of cities for Tennessee Tech grads.
Tennessee Tech grads who hold a Master of Science (MS) can expect to fare better than most fellow alumni, earning an average $105K per year. A Bachelor of Science in Computer Science (CS) offers the lowest median annual financial reward (around $49K).
Project Management is a popular skill among Tennessee Tech alumni, with close to one-sixth of workers reporting using it on the job. Budget Management commands a pay premium of 47 percent for former Golden Eagles. In addition, those who are savvy in Engineering Design, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft Office are also considered highly skilled.
Only one-third of alumni earn paid vacation and just one-fifth of alumni get paid sick time. Most former students enjoy benefits like health insurance, while a strong majority of respondents receive dental plans, too. To plan for old age, a large number of grads maintain savings accounts through a company's 401(k) plan. Graduates of Tennessee Technological University are also recipients of a casual working environment, life insurance, a company-subsidized cell phone, and tuition reimbursement.
Eastern Kentucky University grads report the most similar salaries to Tennessee Tech alums, earning approximately $62K on average. Other schools similar to Tennessee Tech include Austin Peay State University, Western Kentucky University, and University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.

KALIINIGRAD, March 03. /ITAR-TASS/. More than 3,500 servicemen of the Russian Baltic Fleet are taking part in the tactical exercise of coast guard troops on a test-site in the Kaliningrad region on Russia's Baltic coast in the framework of a surprise inspection of combat readiness of troops and ammunition of the Western and Central Military District.
More than 450 units of military hardware, including personnel armored carriers BMP-2, tanks T-72, self-propelled artillery installations and communication facilities, are taking part in the large-scale exercise, Chief of the public relations department of the press service of the Western Military District Captain 2nd rank Vladimir Matveyev told Itar-Tass on Monday.
The specifics of the exercise was that servicemen of motor-rifle regiments had practiced defense and offensive operations under conditions of radio and electronic blockade, enforced by a presumed adversary, artillery fire and air strikes, Matveyev added.
In the final leg of the exercise, the servicemen will practice combat shooting from all kinds of firearms and grenade launchers at targets which imitate caterpillar and cross-country vehicles and live manpower.

The critically acclaimed Charlie and Lola books now an animated series on television!
Lola is a fussy eater. A very fussy eater. She won't eat her carrots (until her brother Charlie reveals that they're orange twiglets from Jupiter). She won't eat her mashed potatoes (until Charlie explains that they're cloud fluff from the pointiest peak of Mount Fuji). There are many things Lola won't eat, including - and especially - tomatoes. Or will she? Two endearing siblings star in a witty story about the triumph of imagination over proclivity.

We picked this book up from our local library. Really liked this book as the young girl Lola doesn't like to eat certain foods. Kind of like K was for a while. We enjoyed how even though they were the same foods Charlie used her imagination to make them be something else and it seemed a lot more funner to eat them. This is a perfect book to read to kids especially with those that are fussy eaters, as you can get an idea on how to get them to get their foods. K's favorite part was the moonsquirters and I can see him using that term instead of tomatoes in the future.
I used this as a read aloud to teach problem and solution. The class loved it. Young children easily make connections and the book's humor engages a high interest level. Great book!
My daughter loves this book so much that the pages of her paperback are falling apart, but that just gives this fantastic book more character. She is 20-months old and reads along with us and just laughs at all that Charlie and Lola do and say. We're getting her more C&L books for Christmas this year.
My 5 year old wanted to buy this book, and while it is very cute and colorful, she hasn't asked to re-read it yet. I think she may have been a bit too old for the story because she didn't quite buy the idea of re-naming the food with silly names in order to eat it. I think it would be a wonderful book for a younger child who is struggling with being afraid to try new foods since it is very creative and silly.
I love Charlie and Lola, and this is a particularly good one- albeit not written by Lauren Childs, which would have made it even better. It didn't trick my daughter into wanting to eat vegetables like I hoped, but she laughed at every page. Go for the originals first and you will be hooked on the Charlie and Lola books for sure. And by all means read these stories to your child in Charlie and Lola's super duper British accent, and they will love love love it all the more more more. It's "Chaaalie" not "Charlie!" We love Charlie and Lola!
I purchased this book because my 2 year old granddaughter loves the show on TV. We so enjoyed the book, it was written exactly how the characters speak on the show. The pictures are colorful & imaginative & kept her attention. When my 7 year old niece came over, she could read the book herself. She thought it was a funny story. So whether 2 or 7 it was very well liked by these little girls.
I love all of Lauren Child's books. My four year-old daughter has me read one to her at bedtime each night. The characters are fascinating to her. Each of her books in the Charlie and Lola series addresses a different challenge that parents face while raising small children. My daughter even tried fish sticks and tomatoes after we read this! One of our favorite shows from the Charlie and Lola series on Disney Channel is one about Lola wanting a dog. I hope this one will be one of the upcoming books for Mrs. Child to publish. These books are great!
I love this book, and in fact all of lauren Child's work. The art is great and the books are so funny.I read this book to my class of kindergartners before i had kids, and following it we made our own mini pizzas with veggies. The kids are all the veggies! :-) Now i have 2 kids myself, and my son loves this book as well. And, to my joy, i found out the other day that the Disney channel has a cartoon on Charlie and Lola. Yippee!
Many young children don't like tomatoes. Some retain that distaste into adulthood. This story shows that stated fussiness about food can simply be a way of getting attention. Parents: Pay attention to this story! The colorful collages of photographs and childlike drawings bring excitement and freshness to the story. Lola is a 'small and very fussy' eater. Charlie is assigned by their parents to feed Lola. Lola begins to expound her theories: 'carrots are for rabbits' 'peas are too small and too green' Lola goes on to list peas, carrots, potatoes, mushrooms, spaghetti, eggs, sausages, cauliflower, cabbage, baked beans, bananas, and oranges as banned items. She also notes her reservations about apples, rice, cheese, and fish sticks. 'And I absolutely will never not ever eat a tomato.' Sounds like peanut butter and jelly are coming up to me. Then Charlie attacks directly by putting out some carrots. Lola looks at them and says, 'Then why are those carrots there, Charlie?' 'Those are orange twiglets from Jupiter,' says Charlie. 'Mmm, not bad,' Lola replied, 'and took another bite.' Charlie puts out peas and describes them as 'green drops from Greenland' and Lola finds them 'quite tasty.' Mashed potatoes become 'cloud fluff from the pointiest peak of Mount Fuji,' and Lola decides 'I love to eat clouds.' Fish sticks become 'ocean nibbles from the supermarket under the sea -- mermaids eat them all the time.' Lola wants to know if she can have more. Suddenly Lola turns the tables, 'Charlie, will you pass me one of those?' Lola continued, 'Yes, of course, moonsquirters are my favorite.' 'You didn't think they were tomatoes, did you, Charlie?' Obviously, Lola knows that they are playing a game, and she likes it. The new game seems like more fun than laying down the law about what she will and won't eat. The game puts her in charge by letting her name the foods, as well as her usual game of saying what she will not eat. Charlie makes room for Lola to assert herself, and all is well. With children, there is a tendency to treat them like subjects of a King or a Queen. Actually, they feel quite grown up at a young age and want to have some autonomy. Choice of foods can simply be a testing of limits. But all children would rather have fun, and can easily be distracted by making the potential confrontation into a game, instead. This book eloquently makes that point, and ensures many more peaceful hours in many households. After you finish reading the story, you should think about where else you can kid your child out of her or his bad mood. Come to think of it, when will that approach work with adults as well? Look for the potential to improve every communication! Donald Mitchell, co-author of The Irresistible Growth Enterprise and The 2,000 Percent Solution

Cut to mail delivery days'inevitable'
Relevant offers
A New Zealand Post proposal to reduce mail deliveries to a minimum three days a week is part of the inevitable march from paper-based information delivery to electronic, says Marlborough Chamber of Commerce chief executive Brian Dawson.
"We want it all ways," Mr Dawson said.
"We demand modern means of communication but also the luxury of six-day postal services."
It was a business reality that NZ Post had to address a steady decrease in postal volumes, Mr Dawson said.
Communications and Information Technology Minister Amy Adams yesterday said NZ Post had asked the Government to relax its service obligations. This meant being able to reduce mail deliveries from six days a week to three, and replacing some postal outlets with self-service kiosks.
Ms Adams said 265 million fewer items were posted each year than 10 years ago, and in five years volumes would have halved from what they were since 2002.
Mr Dawson said fewer deliveries would mean more delays in the postal service, making it even less popular.
Some businesses would suffer, he acknowledged, especially those that resisted modern communication methods like electronic invoicing and bill payment.
Rural Women New Zealand national president Liz Evans of the Waihopai Valley conceded that mail volumes were dropping but said it was regrettable that deliveries would be reduced.
The Government consulted Rural Women about the changes, which it recognised would hit rural areas, Mrs Evans said.
Already, remote regions in Marlborough, including the Awatere Valley, received mail only three days a week.
Mail-order businesses would be especially hard-hit by proposed changes, as would people with no access to computers or reluctant to use the internet, she said.
Grey Power Marlborough president Colin Draper had mixed feelings about reduced mail deliveries.
He said 10 per cent to 15 per cent of Grey Power's 4500 Marlborough members did not have access to email so were being left behind by the trend towards electronic communication.
On the other hand, the organisation could save postage by emailing rather than posting newsletters.
The generation that did not use computers was taking up computer training, and being slowly replaced, Mr Draper said.
He thought older members would learn to live with less frequent mail deliveries but hoped the proposal was not the thin edge of the wedge.
Submissions on the NZ Post proposal close on March 12.
