Aussie Pets wild in the Costa Rican Jungle
by Cassidy Cruise on Nov.15, 2013, under Cassidy Cruise
DATELINE… COSTA RICA, somewhere in the Cordillera de Talamanca, November 3 — The day broke hot and humid today just as it has every morning since we arrived. I am on assignment in the central american jungle for Australian Penthouse, tasked along with Scarlett Morgan (Australian Penthouse Pet April 2013)to complete a 'secret mission' for the magazine. We have been walking now for 5 minutes, maybe 6, and although we can still see the Range Rover through the jungle canopy it feels like we have entered our own 'heart of darkness' (or maybe it's more 'appocolypse now' ).
OK, OK, now I have had my fun being Miss Hemmingway-Fleming-Cruise so now I will give you what you really want… some SEXY and fun details! I can't say exactly what we were doing here (you will have to make sure you check out next couple issues of Australian Penthouse for that!!!) but I can tell you we had an absolutely amazing day!
It was incredibly tropical so of course we started off wearing next to nothing and by the end of the day Scarlett was bursting out of even that. We forded rivers, avoided wild beasts and yes got all hot and sweaty doing it but don't worry we still looked amazing and even found a crystal clear jungle pool too cool off in (naked of course). From deep in the rainforest to all around San Jose we 'worked it' until we got what we came for and happily brought our 'mission' to a spectacular finish.
OK, that's all I can say now but keep following me and Australian Penthouse for more sexy details on what was an incredible day.

Pet of the Year 2013, Paris La Moore
by nick on Nov.13, 2013, under Current Issue, More Pets, Paris La Moore, Pet of the Month, Pet of the Year, POTM Feature, Splash, The Magazine
From Paris with LOVE
Join us in congratulating Paris La Moore, our stunning Pet of the Year 2013!
Photography: Andrew K
Congratulations on being named our Pet of the Year 2013! How was the big night?
It was nerve-racking and incredibly overwhelming, but in a good way. I networked and made new friends.
What's the plan now you've secured the coveted diamond necklace and sash?
World domination! I've had a lot of business opportunities come forth and I'll definitely be looking into them. I'd ultimately like to tour Penthouse Clubs doing feature shows and promoting the brand. I'm going to try and make the most of the title.
What does the prestigious title mean to you?
It means a lot. It's an achievement in itself and offers immediate recognition for my home club, Xotica in Perth, that has supported me the whole way through.
What advice can you give to ladies looking to earn future Pet of the Year titles?
Remain professional in every situation you are faced with. Work on your networking and social media, and show that you're diverse at many things. But, most importantly, show your personality at its best. As an ambassador for Penthouse, you are always on show. Everyone is watching.
Obviously, you have a really incredible body. What's your favourite feature?
I have two favourites: my legs because they're stupidly long—my bosses nicknamed me Bambi because of them—and my eyes.
What makes a great dancer?
It's all about the entertainment factor. She should make the audience member feel like they are the only person in the room and that her dancing is just for them, even if it's just for a moment.
How difficult is it to come up with new stage shows that top the ones that went before?
It's not easy because everything has been done to death. But all it takes is a new song, a vision and some passion, and boom: you've got yourself the makings of a hot new show.

Pole Virgin
by Paris La Moore on Oct.21, 2013, under Paris La Moore
So…. I've been dancing for 12 yrs…. YES, thats right 12!!!
I'm proud to say I am finally the owner of a pole. I bought my very first pole….. Hmmm, setting it up was…. interesting.
My dogs wanted to help, which obviously created more problems. So after getting my pole up and trying it out, the bloody thing wouldn't spin properly.
So took it down again and managed to screw it tighter (no pun intended) and I now have a decorative crack/gap in my garage roof! It adds to the look that im going for…. I think???
Lol. But anyways… long story short…. I got a pole. Its awesome!!!
My dogs keep insisting that they wanna pole too… ummm….
Best you keep following to see all our moves…..
Luv ya, Paz xo

A man and his wife are awakened at 3:00 am by a loud pounding on the door. The man gets up and goes to the door where a drunken stranger, standing in the pouring rain, is asking for a push.
"Not a chance," says the husband, "it is 3:00 in the morning!"
He slams the door and returns to bed.
"Who was that?" asks his wife.
"Just some drunk guy asking for a push," he answers.
"Did you help him?" she asks.
"No, I did not, it's 3am in the morning and it's bloody pouring rain out there!"
"Well, you have a short memory," says his wife. "Can't you remember about three months ago when we broke down, and those two guys helped us? I think you should help him, and you should be ashamed of yourself!
"God loves drunk people too you know."
The man does as he is told, gets dressed, and goes out into the pounding rain.
He calls out into the dark, "Hello, are you still there?"
"Yes," comes back the answer.
"Do you still need a push?" calls out the husband.
"Yes, please!" comes the reply from the dark.
"Where are you?" asks the husband.
"Over here on the swing," replies the drunk.

Members of the Local Council for Women in Sibulan town, Negros Oriental, launched recently a program geared at fighting climate change dubbed "Love a Tree the Women Way," a Philippine Information Agency press release said.
The progeam was held to mark the Women's Month celebration in Sibulan town, the press release said.
Each LCW member was given one fruit tree of rambutan or lanzones and asked to plant it in her backyard. They were also told that planting a tree is like caring for a child and adult, and women are experts at it and will care for them in similar manner, the press release said.
The council members planted the trees during the Women's Month celebration at the vicinity of Lake Balinsasayao through the help of the Protected Area Management Board personnel, the press release added.*

The Metropolitan Museum of Art Page 1
PHOTOS: Preview The Met Costume Institute's 'Punk: Chaos To Couture' Exhibit
The irony of attending an 8AM press preview breakfast at the Metropolitan Museum of Art along with Anna Wintour and a pack of Vogue-ettes to talk Sid Vicious, Johnny Rotten, and all things punk was not lost on us as we made the trek to the Upper East Side yesterday, but were we complaining? Not a chance. What we were previewing was, of course, the Costume Institute's "Punk: Chaos to Couture" exhibition, slated to open to the public May 9 after the annual star-studded gala.
Next Year's Met Costume Institute Exhibition Theme Revealed
The Metropolitan Museum of Art has just announced its 2013 exhibit, PUNK: Chaos to Couture. Quite a departure from its previous Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations exhibit, and we're totally on board with this one.
Guess Which Designers Are Next Up At The Costume Institute?
Rumor has it not one, but two Italian fashion houses have been picked as the follow up act to The Costume Institute's hit exhibit Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty.
Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty, By The Numbers
That's it, folks. The show's over. And by show, we mean the totally incredible Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty exhibit at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art. But oh, did it have a successful run!
How Joe Zee Skipped The Epic Line At The McQueen Exhibit
Tonight the Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty exhibit will close forever. Yes, forever. But the Met is staying open until midnight to accomodate the crowds, and we would like to know just what lengths you're going to for the once-in-a-lifetime show.
Behind-The-Scenes Of The McQueen Exhibit's Stunning Catalog
We could breathlessly describe how unreal amazing the Alexander McQueen exhibit at the Met is, but hey, we already did that! Savage Beauty closes on Sunday, and it is an absolute must-see. Need more convincing? We'll help.
Met Extends Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty By A Week
The Alexander McQueen exhibit at the Met has gotten such a stellar reception that its run being extended a full week — and for a special price, the museum will even let you see it when no one else is there.
McQueen Exhibit Second Only To Van Gogh In First-Day Visits
Anyone who still doubts that fashion is an art form would probably be a little miffed to hear that The Costume Institute's exhibit of designer Alexander McQueen's work had the second highest opening day of any exhibit at The Metropolitan Museum. With 5,100 attendees on May 4, Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty is second only to Vincent van Gogh: The Drawings, which pulled in 5,400 people on its first day in 2005.
Alexander McQueen At The Met: An Essential Exhibit, An Extraordinary Career
The Costume Institute's "Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty" exhibit at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art is insanely beautiful, intensely dramatic, and — most importantly — profoundly moving. Spanning from McQueen's Central Saint Martins graduation collection to his posthumous autumn/winter 2010-11 show, the exhibit celebrates an extraordinary and prolific career cut tragically short.
PHOTOS: The Met's McQueen Exhibit Is Going To Be Gorgeous
We saw some images from the Met's upcoming Alexander McQueen Costume Institute exhibit back in February, and now we have even more to show you. The Cut got their hands on a copy of the catalog for Savage Beauty, and, yes, it's stunning.

The color orange demands attention. Orange is a vibrant and energetic color created by the combination of red and yellow. It has been known to mentally stimulate in social settings. The color orange has even been known to have an effect on your appetite. Like the color lime, orange is named after the citrus fruit it resembles. Prom Dress Shop has stunning orange Prom dresses in all styles and sizes.
Quick Tip: Be sure to wear your Prom shoes around the house before the event. This will cause the bottoms to become scuffed and less slippery. It will also cause the shoes to gain some elasticity; allowing your feet to remain pain-free at Prom.
Let's face it; no one is the perfect model size. That means that Prom dress alterations may be a necessary part of purchasing any orange Prom dress. While alterations may be time consuming they are worth it if you want your orange Prom dress to look perfect on you. When getting alterations you will want to ask to see a sample of the seamstresses work. You will also want to ask for an alteration quote before you leave your orange Prom dress with the seamstress, this way no one is surprised.
For a more specific shipping time go to the shipping link and view the UPS shipping chart. Please allow 72 hours to process your order (not including Saturdays, Sundays and Holidays). If you need the merchandise sooner you have the option to select 2 day air or next day air for an additional price. Since we are not the shipping company, we cannot be held responsible for delayed or lost shipments once the package leaves our warehouse. Under most circumstances, we ship our orange Prom dresses through UPS. The same day your package leaves our warehouse we will send you the UPS tracking number. This way you can track your merchandise every step of the way until it reaches its destination. If for some reason we do not have your orange Prom dress in stock or cannot get it by your wear date, we will notify you immediately and there will be no charge to your credit card.

QPR chairman Tony Fernandes said: "This decision has been made in the best interests of the Club and I can assure everyone that this is not a decision that was made lightly.
So...QPR big enough for you Mark?

The Miracle Muffin Top WorkoutWe don't like that phrase, either, but we dislike the phenomenon it refers to even more. Trim your midsection by adding these expert-recommended moves to your regular workouts.
By Corrie Pikul
Could this be the recipe for deflating the muffin top? A recent study compared three groups—those who ate a reduced-carbohydrate diet, those who combined the diet with strength training and those who combined the diet and strength-training with cardio workouts—and found that a three-tier approach was the most effective strategy to decrease abdominal fat. It's important to note that the exercises you choose and the effort you put into them really matter, says Marta Montenegro, a certified strength and conditioning coach who teaches exercise physiology at Florida International University. Instead of ho-hum treadmill-trotting and sit-ups, she recommends high-intensity workouts, which have been shown to be more effective at reducing the belly fat you can pinch with your hand, as well as the visceral fat that pads internal organs (which has been linked to metabolic disturbances and increased risk for cardiovascular disease and type-2 diabetes).
The Circuit*You will need 2 small towels and 2 dumbbells (3–5 pounds).*Perform the exercises in the following order, one after another, without pausing in between. *When you've completed all 6 exercises, rest for 90 seconds. *Do the entire circuit 1–3 times.

See the full Highway Report by the Reason Foundation here.
* * *
Motorists crisscrossing Nebraska this summer may be heartened to know that the Cornhusker State's highway system is ranked sixth-best in the nation, according to the 20th annual Highway Report by a California think tank.
The report was released Tuesday, just before the Fourth of July, which AAA Nebraska says is the biggest holiday for travel every year. More than 34 million Americans were expected to go by car, including thousands following Interstate 80 across Nebraska and Iowa.
Fred Zwonechek, the Nebraska highway safety administrator, called I-80 "the nation's Main Street" because of all the cross-country traffic it carries.
The Highway Report by the Reason Foundation of Los Angeles uses data that states provide to the federal government to produce its annual rankings. The report considers road conditions as well as spending levels to determine an overall performance and cost-effectiveness ranking.
Nebraska achieved its No. 6 ranking partly because its rural Interstate pavement was best in the nation, but also because it spends less per mile than most states. Nebraska's administrative costs per mile, in particular, were fifth-lowest.
Iowa ranked 33rd overall.
Randy Peters, director of the Nebraska Department of Roads, said he was "delighted" with the report's results, which were based on data from 2009.
"We are pleased that the Reason Foundation's analysis validates NDOR's efforts to provide good value for Nebraskans' investment in the road system," Peters said. "It is always challenging to compare one state to another when the data being collected is never a simple 'apples-to-apples' comparison. Given the inherent challenges involved with that, we think the report is fair."
Nebraska ranked 23rd in fatality rate, 27th in deficient bridges, 27th in urban Interstate pavement in poor condition, and 18th in urban Interstate congestion.
"Nebraska spends less than 10 percent of the annual operating budget on administration, so we are very efficient," Peters said. "On the other hand, the change in ranking year to year has as much to do with fluctuations in the other states' performance as it has to do with our own."
The state's extreme weather conditions contribute to the maintenance problems faced by the Roads Department, he said.
"It is not just the number of heavy truckloads that deteriorate highways. Environmental factors also play a major role," Peters said. "Nebraska's cold winters and hot summers account for much of the pavement distress."
Overall, the nation's road conditions show slight improvement over last year, with North Dakota, Kansas and Wyoming having the best, most cost-effective highway systems. Alaska, Rhode Island, Hawaii and California have the worst highway systems, according to the report.
The Highway Report measures the condition and cost-effectiveness of state-owned roads in 11 categories, including pavement condition, urban traffic congestion, deficient bridges, unsafe narrow lanes, traffic fatalities, total spending per mile of state roads and administrative costs per mile.
Nationwide there was small progress in every category except for pavement condition on rural arterial roads. These improvements were achieved at a time when per-mile expenditures dropped slightly. Despite receiving stimulus funding from the federal government in 2009, the report said spending on state roads decreased slightly, by 0.6 percent, when compared with 2008.
"It's hard to believe it when you hit a pothole or see a bridge in Washington collapse, but the nation's roads are getting better," said David Hartgen, author of the study and emeritus transportation professor at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. "There are still several states struggling and plenty of problem areas. But you (can) make the case that, overall, America's roads and bridges have never been in better shape."
Among the states plagued with problems are New Jersey and California. New Jersey spends $1.2 million per mile on its state-controlled roads. That's nearly twice as much as the $679,000 per mile spent in California, the next-biggest-spending state.
North Carolina, home to the nation's largest state highway system, spends $44,000 per mile on its roads. South Carolina spends just $31,000 — the lowest per-mile rate in the nation, according to the report.
Not only are California's Interstates full of potholes, they are also jammed; 80 percent of the state's urban Interstates are congested. Minnesota has the next-highest percentage of gridlocked Interstates, with 78 percent of urban Interstates deemed congested.
Massachusetts had the lowest traffic fatality rate, while Montana had the highest.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Gov. Bobby Jindal's proposal to hike the amount rank-and-file state workers pay for retirement has advanced to the full House for debate, despite criticism that tying it to pay raises could cost the state more than it benefits.
It's unclear when the 2 percentage point increase in pension contributions would be levied on employees, since workers would have to get a 4 percent salary boost before a four-year phase-in of the contribution increase could begin.
The proposal has been heavily reworked by lawmakers since Jindal first proposed it in a package of pension changes that he said would help decrease a multibillion state retirement debt.
Several members of the House Retirement Committee questioned whether the pay raise requirement — added by senators before they approved the measure — lessened the point of the bill.
"Didn't we just lose ground, four steps backward and two steps forward?" asked Rep. Jeff Thompson, R-Bossier City.
Rep. Sam Jones, a consistent critic of the governor's package of retirement changes, said the contribution increase bill looks nothing like when it was filed.
"I don't understand where the taxpayers are coming out ahead of this. We have to give $4 before we take back 50 cents the first year," said Jones, D-Franklin. "This seems like a whole lot of complication to me and benefits the taxpayers not at all."
Despite the questions, the House committee voted 10-1 for the complex proposal.
Jindal administration officials defended the measure as having the same purpose as when it was proposed: to contribute more money toward retirement systems in an effort to lower a multibillion dollar state pension debt.
"The intent and the purpose are the same," said Rina Thomas, a policy adviser for the Republican governor.
Sen. Elbert Guillory, D-Opelousas, the sponsor of the bill, described the pay raise provision as making the pension contribution increase "settle much more gently on our employees."
Jones questioned why the state couldn't just send money directly to pay down the retirement debt, rather than increasing salary costs for each agency first.
As it heads to the House floor for debate, the bill calls for the retirement contribution by rank-and-file state workers and public college employees to rise from 8 percent of annual salary to 10 percent, a half percentage point increase each year for four years once the employee's pay has grown by 4 percent over its level on July 1, 2013.
"It sounds like that's going to be a nightmare for bookkeeping," said Rep. Frank Hoffmann, R-West Monroe, who supported the bill.
The money generated by the pension contribution increase would go toward closing the multibillion-dollar gap in what the retirement systems have and what they will need to pay all workers when they retire.
Once the retirement system is 80 percent funded, a benchmark that could be as much as a decade or more away, the employee pension contribution rate would fall back to the 8 percent rate.
The contribution increase wouldn't be levied on state police, prison guards and others deemed in hazardous duty. It also wouldn't hit elementary and secondary school employees.
The boards of the two retirement systems involved in the contribution hike oppose the measure, saying it is an unconstitutional change. Lawsuits are expected if the bill and other parts of the Jindal retirement package get final approval.
Maureen Westgard, director of the Teachers' Retirement System of Louisiana, said the bill leaves a lot of unanswered questions about what would be considered a pay raise. She said college professors, for example, often get research grants and other sources of funding, and she questioned if that would be calculated as a salary increase.
"This is a hairball, and this is a big hairball, and I fear the higher education community will be choking on this hairball," Westgard said.
Other Jindal proposals still pending in the Legislature would raise the retirement age before some state employees could get their full pension benefits, would make it more difficult for retirees to get cost-of-living adjustments and would create a new pension plan for certain new employees.

It is our firm belief that no qualified student should hesitate to apply to Wabash College simply because he believes he cannot afford the cost of attendance. Through the generosity of alumni and friends, our endowment allows us to offer one of the most generous merit-based scholarship and need-based financial aid programs in the nation. Merit-based scholarships are available for qualified students.
Frequently Asked Questions about Financial Aid at Wabash
Q. Must I be accepted for admission at Wabash before I can apply for aid?
A. No. You may file the FAFSA and PROFILE application after January 1. However, you must be admitted to Wabash before any financial aid can be awarded.
Q. I will have brothers and sisters in college as well. Will the financial aid package take into account that fact?
A. Yes. The expected family contribution is adjusted for families with more than one child attending post-secondary school simultaneously.
Q. Should I file the FAFSA even though I am sure I will not qualify for need-based assistance?
A. Yes. Should your financial situation change drastically, the FAFSA is necessary to qualify for aid. Also, all students are eligible for Federal Stafford Loans if they file the FAFSA - regardless of parental income and financial need.
Q. What should I do if my family's financial situation changes?
A. It is not necessary to file another FAFSA or PROFILE application. Send an email or call to explain the changes in your situation. Contact our office if you need any assistance.
Q. My parents can't afford the amount of money the FAFSA and PROFILE say they can. What should I do?
A. If you feel you have not been given adequate consideration, you should contact the financial aid office. When determining your financial aid package, we make every effort to offer you the maximum amount of assistance you are eligible to receive from the resources available. In determining your aid eligibility, we are governed by federal and state regulations which may limit the types and amounts of assistance you are qualified to receive.
Q. After I am notified of my financial aid packages, when will I receive the money?
A. Funds will be credited to the student's bill in the beginning of each semester or refunded to the student if there is a credit balance in order to pay living expenses.
Q. Even though I am dependent, my parents will not provide any money for my education. What will I do?
A. This is a difficult situation. The federal and state governments expect parents to assist their children when it comes to financing college. Contact the financial aid office to find out about alternative loans or financing programs.
Q. Why do I have to complete the CSS/PROFILE and the FAFSA?
A. Though these applications are similar in terms of the information requested, the CSS/PROFILE gives our office a broader picture of your current financial situation. The more information we have, the more accurate your financial aid award. We award federal and state need-based assistance from the information received on the FAFSA. Wabash need-based funds are awarded from the CSS/PROFILE information.
Q. What is IDOC? Why do I have to submit this information?
A. IDOC is the Institutional Documentation Service (IDOC), administered by the College Board to collect families' federal tax returns and other documents on behalf Wabash College. The College Board will notify students selected when they must submit the required documents. IDOC is used to verify the information you submitted through the financial aid process.

Andy Griggs
Andy Griggs
Louisiana native Andy Griggs grew up listening to the sounds of Merle Haggard, but turned his head toward outlaw country and gospel by the time he reached college. After a short stint at Northeast Louisiana University, Griggs returned home in the early '90s to grieve the deaths of his father and brother. He became a minister, and settled into family life with a new marriage, but he was still playing guitar. The music was in his veins, so Griggs began writing songs. By 1997, Griggs was paving his way in Nashville. He issued his debut album, You Won't Ever Be Lonely, in 1999; it went gold and charted three Top Ten singles with "She's More," "I'll Go Crazy," and "You Won't Ever Be Lonely." Three years later, Griggs returned to the country spotlight with a second album, Freedom. The album's first single, "Tonight I Wanna Be Your Man," was another chart smash. The Good Life, on Montage Records, appeared in 2008. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, Rovi

GWEN IFILL: Next, to North Korea saying farewell to one leader and getting ready for another.
Margaret Warner has that story.
MARGARET WARNER: Displays of public emotion are one image that the North Korean leadership wants the rest of the world to see. But much else remains a mystery, even the extent of that mourning.
We begin with a report from Angus Walker of Independent Television News, reporting from South Korea.
ANGUS WALKER: Lying in state, Kim Jong-il in death, as in life, treated like a king, surrounded by garlands and guards.
His son Kim Jong-un, in his 20s, expected to be the next in line in the world's only communist dynasty. The burden of his birth seems heavy on his young shoulders as he assumes leadership of a country where even public mourning is controlled.
The country appears to be a state of hysteria, at least in front of the cameras. In the South Korean capital, I met three defectors from North Korea. We watched the latest news from the country they escaped from.
It's crocodile tears, they told me. And I asked, what would happen if people didn't weep and grieve in public?
SON JEONG HUN, North Korean defector (through translator): If people don't cry in public, then they can be seen as insulting the leadership. It can regarded as a crime against the state.
ANGUS WALKER: It's only when North Koreans have defected to the South that they're free to reveal what they truly think about the regime they have escaped from.
But it is possible to hear what people are saying inside the secretive state. This is a radio station which broadcasts at midnight. North Koreans, risking arrest, can listen to the shortwave signal. The man who runs the station says he's managed to speak to North Koreans on smuggled mobile phones during the last 24 hours.
HA TAE GYUNG, radio station director: So, some of them, even some of them called -- we called today, they say that they welcome the death of Kim Jong-il, because the death of Kim Jong-il signals a new era, when they can change North Korean society.
ANGUS WALKER: But any hopes of real change now rely on Kim Jong-un. His succession, shrouded in secrecy, amid rumors of infighting means now more than ever the truth about North Korea is hard to see.

Triassic Period
Copyright PFMA/Doug Henderson Imagine a large river basin with numerous rivers and streams flowing through the lowland. Galleries of trees, ferns, and giant horsetails grew abundantly along the waterway, providing food and shelter for many insects, reptiles, amphibians, and other creatures. In the slightly dryer areas a short distance from the water there were cycads, bennettitaleans, ginkgoes, and coniferous trees towering almost two-hundred feet into the sky. During the Triassic Period, the climate was very different from that of today. Located near the equator, this region was humid and tropical, the landscape dominated by a river system larger than anything on Earth today. Giant reptiles and amphibians, early dinosaurs, fish, and many invertebrates lived among the dense vegetation and in the winding waterways. New fossils come to light as paleontologists continue to study the Triassic treasure trove of Petrified Forest National Park. |

I'm pondering why this example of book-carving seems more attractive than the standard version. I think it's because the books wind up resembling not just a landscape, but also an architect's model of a landscape, with its stairstep topographical-map layers.
The right to a horse
One of the key figures in the creation of the Internet suggests we should be careful about enshrining any technology as a human right. That it is tempting to do so says a lot about many technologies' ability to enable incredible (and deeply humanizing) things, but also about their tendency to seem more irresistible and permanent than they really are.
[T]echnology is an enabler of rights, not a right itself. There is a high bar for something to be considered a human right. Loosely put, it must be among the things we as humans need in order to lead healthy, meaningful lives, like freedom from torture or freedom of conscience. It is a mistake to place any particular technology in this exalted category, since over time we will end up valuing the wrong things. For example, at one time if you didn't have a horse it was hard to make a living. But the important right in that case was the right to make a living, not the right to a horse. Today, if I were granted a right to have a horse, I'm not sure where I would put it.

New Years Rulin's
From a list of folk singer Woody Guthrie's 1942 New Year's resolutions: a collection of low and high goals. The second page gets more metaphorical and far-seeing ("19. KEEP HOPING MACHINE RUNNING"; "31. LOVE EVERYBODY"). The item before "PLAY AND SING GOOD" strikes a pang: "SEND MARY AND KIDS MONEY", a reminder of the family he'd left behind for the rambling' lifestyle. Culture-making, however great, always comes at a cost. This July will mark the 100th anniversary of Woody's birth.

Portfolio | ZanaAfrica
Last summer I designed this postcard-sized brochure for ZanaAfrica, a nonprofit based in Nairobi. The design brief for the cards was challenging in the usual nonprofit sense: a lot of information to be conveyed succinctly, attractively and respectfully on a very limited budget for quick turnaround. The design process itself was, my clients informed me, quite helpful in refining ZanaA's message and presentation.
Rethinking one's own position as a creator
Is a composer like an architect, directing every detail of the music, from its structure to its finish? That, says Brian Eno, is the traditional view (never mind my architect friends' complaints about the impossibility of getting builders to fully follow the blueprints). As you might guess, Eno prefers another approach, less about wresting control than laying a groundwork and then seeing what grows.
And essentially the idea there is that one is making a kind of music in the way that one might make a garden. One is carefully constructing seeds, or finding seeds, carefully planting them and then letting them have their life. And that life isn't necessarily exactly what you'd envisaged for them. It's characteristic of the kind of work that I do that I'm really not aware of how the final result is going to look or sound. So in fact, I'm deliberately constructing systems that will put me in the same position as any other member of the audience. I want to be surprised by it as well. And indeed, I often am.
What this means, really, is a rethinking of one's own position as a creator. You stop thinking of yourself as me, the controller, you the audience, and you start thinking of all of us as the audience, all of us as people enjoying the garden together. Gardener included. So there's something in the notes to this thing that says something about the difference between order and disorder.

Six or more glasses daily!
Ephemera from the radium craze of the mid 1920s. A friend of mine wrote his doctoral dissertation on this stuff. In the first years after radium was discovered, the initial reaction on the part of both laypeople and scientists was basically, Wow this is amazing and powerful. It must be the stuff of life! Sure, a plant will die if you put it next to some of it, but that's just because it can't handle all the LIFE radiating out from it. There's a sobering lesson in this, but I can't quite decide if it's that wishful thinking (or perhaps duplicitousness) will conspire to foist all manner of perils upon the unsuspecting, or simply that even those of us who know better, don't always.

Technology is not the enemy (uncoolness is)
Some languages are making a comeback thanks to a strong desire on the part of speakers to send one another text messages in them. For endangered scripts, the revival will be longer in coming, till smartphones work their way cheaply into the right eager hands.
"For a long time, technology was the enemy," says Inée Slaughter, executive director of the New Mexico-based Indigenous Language Institute, which teaches Native Americans and other indigenous peoples how to use digital technologies to keep their languages vital. Heritage languages were being killed off by increasing urbanization, the spread of formal education and the shift to cash crops, which ended the isolation of indigenous communities. Advances in technology seemed to intensify the decline. "Even in 1999 or 2000, people were saying technology killed their language," Slaughter says. "Community elders worried about it. As television came into homes, English became pervasive 24/7. Mainstream culture infiltrated, and young kids want to be like that. It was a huge, huge problem, and it's still there. But now we know ways technology can be helpful."

Der Bibelschreiber (The Bible writer)
The work of German art-technology collective robotlab (Matthias Gommel, Martina Haitz, Jan Zap) revolves around programming industrial robots to do rather human things, like draw people's portraits, play music with their servos, or pick up a calligrapher's pen and, over the course of seven months, write out all 66 books of the Bible. According to the artists' statement (as best I can figure out the German), Bios [bible] is concerned with questions of faith and technical progress, with particular attention to the role of writing in the development and transmission of both realms. Bios, of course, has allusions to scripture as the word of life, but also encompasses the more mundane computer-scientific acronym, basic input-output system—the code that underlies the liturgies of every robot monk.

CHENNAI: The chairman of selection committee Krishnamachari Srikkanth on Sunday expressed huge disappointment on Indian team's dismal performance Down Under terming it as a collective batting failure.
"We are totally devastated. It is quiet disappointing in the manner we have played in Australia. Now sitting in Chennai, it is difficult for me to pinpoint a particular reason as to what went wrong. Definitely our batting has failed consistently throughout the series," Srikkanth told the mediapersons after announcing the team for the upcoming tri-series in Australia.

Tonight for supper I made one of my familys favorite meals. Homemade chicken strips. Don't be scared, they are really a pretty simple and very versatile dish.
The list of ingredients is pretty simple:
Chicken tenders about 2 1/2 lbs. (can also use breasts cut into strips)
1 cup flour with 2 T. Seasoned salt
1 egg with 1/4 cup water
Crushed Butter Flavor Crackers roughly 1 tube
Set up a dipping station like I have shown above. Mix the flour and seasoned salt. This is the perfect time to add any other seasoning that you may like. Mix the egg and water together. Now is the important part: don't forget the wet hand dry hand rule. Use one hand in the flour and cracker crumbs and the other for the chicken and the egg. If you use this method you never end up with the dreaded breaded hand that looks like it should be deep-fried.
If you are cooking them right away I usually start heating my oil right now. You don't need a lot, just enough to cover the bottom of the pan.
If you are not going to cook them right away you can put them in the fridge until you are ready, these are great to make ahead. The longer they stand the better the coating holds on.
I dip the chicken strips one at a time until they are all done, placing them on a clean plate as I go. This is not a complicated process but as you can see it does get a little messy.
Fry the strips in batches a few at a time, without crowding the pan. I heat my oil on medium high, and I know it is ready if I drop a few cracker crumbs in and they sizzle. Cook them about 3 minutes per side, you know when to turn them because you can see the edges getting brown. As they get done remove them to a clean plate with a couple of paper towels on it to drain any excess oil and cool just a little.
Now you are finished! This is my familys favorite version, but you can spice them up any way you like. The butter flavor crackers give them a really unique flavor. If you have any leftovers you can reheat them the next day in a frying pan with just a touch of oil.
If you know you are going to have more than you need you can put them in a freezer bag and keep 'em till you need 'em. I love them for days when the kids are at school and I need a quick lunch.

AUSVEG warns that Chinese vegetable imports have tripled over the past 10 years
Australia June 16, 2011
AUSVEG spokesperson Andrew White today warned of food safety concerns and the ongoing threat to the Australian vegetable industry based on data that Chinese vegetable imports have tripled over the past 10 years, and continue to represent a significant threat to the Australian vegetable industry and the community.
"Between 2000 and 2010 Chinese vegetable imports have tripled, from just over $30 million in value in 2000 to representing $96 million in value in the Australian market in 2010," Mr White said.
"Among the vegetables we are importing into Australia from China are dried vegetables, garlic, processed tomatoes, asparagus, frozen beans, frozen sweet corn, processed potatoes, fresh, frozen and processed peas, and fresh spinach," he said.
"Vegetable imports from China have grown threefold over the past 10 years and they represent a considerable threat to the viability of Australian growers, as they are cheap and can undercut our market due to lower labour and input costs overseas. At the same time, we can't guarantee that the same food standards are being applied by these international suppliers."
"There have been numerous food safety incidents with regard to Chinese vegetable production over the past few years, including exploding watermelons and whitening agents on mushrooms. The fact is that we can't guarantee that the same quality assurance standards we value here are being applied in international markets and often, we're not testing for them as they enter Australia."
"At present, Australia only tests the majority of vegetables coming into Australia at the random surveillance rate of 5 per cent, which is in our view unacceptable and not commensurate with our own quality assurance practices domestically."
AUSVEG is the National Peak Industry Body representing around 9,000 Australian vegetable and potato growers.
Mr White said that it was important that the Australian consumer knew of the risks associated with imported produce and continued to support the domestic vegetable industry and growers by buying Australia, particularly in light of unfounded commentary in recent days which had unfairly attacked the integrity of Australian chemical regulation.
According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS), the following increases in imports from China have taken place between 2000 and 2010. These represent only a few of the increases:

In a political case of 6 degrees of separation, or, if you will, strange bedfellows, there are several places where the paths of 13th congressional district Republican candidate Marina Kats and 6th congressional district Democratic candidate Bob Rovner cross. Both are Temple Law School grads (Kats in '88, Rovner in '68). Before starting her own firm, Kats was part of the then named Rovner, Allen, Rovner, Zimmerman and Kats. They were among the partners in a venture called All Star Radio, Inc. in the early 1990's that once owned WPGR (Logan). According to the Pennsylvania Department of State, Kats is still the president of All Star Radio. Both have shows on WNWR (I think, but am not certain, that this station is currently owned by All Star Radio), "The Marina Kats Show" and "Senator Bob Rovner Interviews the Stars." Who knew? An example of each show is available as an audio file on the station's website. She translates her into (Russian?) as she goes along which makes listening a very interesting experience.
Kats is definitely an entrepreneur. Kats, Jamison, Van der Veen, and Associates, as well as Kats, Rovner, and Associates, two law firms, are listed as being owned by Kats and Associates. Marina Kats is listed as both President and Treasurer of that professional corporation. Lookforscience.org also lists Kats and Associates with this note:
Marina Kats is the principal owner of a financial services company that provides funding and financial services for independent businesses. She is also the principal of a well-respected litigation firm with offices in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York.
Marina Kats is listed as president of MK Sansom Group II, Ltd. of New Hope, though I cannot guarantee it is the same Marina Kats. However, the Marina Kats listed as an owner of MK South Group III lists an address on the same street as her law firm. There is the MK Warminster, LP, listing Marina Kats as general partner, but has a different address from the MK Warminster Group, Inc, which shares the same street address as MK South Group III but has a different name attached. (You can check this by searching the Dept. of State's list of businesses.) She may have other business interests; I could only search by business name and so was making guesses as to what names to search. Maybe I'm slow but I have trouble keeping my real life and my blogging persona straight. Keeping track of six or more businesses would be beyond my abilities.
This is not her first brush with running for office. Kats was a potential candidate for the 174th state house district for the special election when Alan Butkovitz city controller in 2005, but John Sabatina, Jr., became the Republican candidates. In 2006, she considered a run for the 13th congressional district but decided against it, saying (Runyon):
Without missing a beat, though, she emphasized that she has a successful law practice, and doesn't know if she'd be able to devote the time necessary to win a Republican primary and then take on a career politician of the likes of Schwartz..
One factor in her favor is her ability to self-finance (Fenton):
Republicans hope that Kats, a Ukrainian immigrant who's lived in the area for 16 years, will siphon off Russian American votes, especially from the overwhelmingly Democratic piece of the district in Philadelphia. A wealthy law firm president, Kats said she planned to pay for part of her own campaign, and expected overall costs to top $2 million.
In 2006 it was noted (Runyon):
Speaking by phone from her Bucks County office, she mentioned that a Republican activist was waiting to talk to her in the next room. At the time, she seemed to be more excited about her firm's winning a $10 million verdict last Thursday, an award The Legal Intelligencer claimed was the fourth-largest reported by the newspaper in the last 18 months.
Wow! Well. I look forward to reading how our intrepid local reporters examine all the facets of the 13th district challenger.
