Rain or shine, VINS is a fascinating place to connect with the natural world. Check in on rehabilitating raptors, see how falcons hunt their prey or explore any of the nature trails around the perimeter of the facility. Just off Route 4 in Quechee, it's an easy, and educational, walk on wild side.

(Published in 7 Nights 2008-09) Stepping into Mr. Pickwick's at Ye Olde England Inne in Stowe is like entering an alternate universe, in which plaid carpets become a sensible decorating choice and dishes influenced by the Raj cozy up with classic English cuisine. The place has a masculine feel, reminiscent of an upscale hunting lodge, and servers approach with formal civility, more "English country house" than "Vermont casual."

(Published in 7 Nights 2005-06) Before last July, Brandon was best known for its downtown truck traffic problem. Now the little burg between Middlebury and Rutland is on the map for its moules marinières.
(Published in 7 Nights 2006-07) The Blue Benn and Miss Lyndonville may get more press, but when you're seeking swivel stools and sausage gravy in the heart of Rutland County, Castleton's art-deco Birdseye Diner is what's for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Locals, students and summer people all patronize the lovingly restored 1940s "Silk City" eatery on Main Street, with its bright orange neon sign and chrome-and-porcelain detailing.

Fact is, Lara and Steve Atkins have transformed the Route 2 farmhouse formerly known as Chequers into a fine-dining establishment with black-clad waiters, white linen table cloths and a menu featuring local seasonal meats, cheeses and produce.

May is National Foster Care Month!
Please join us in celebrating the foster parents who support and care for children in the Unaccompanied Refugee Minor (URM) foster care program, providing children with new opportunities for over thirty years. USCCB thanks the refugee foster care organizations that encourage the best possible outcomes for all children – linking children with foster families and providing essential training and case support.
The first "Foster Care Month" was May 1988, born out of an idea by the National Foster Parent Association and supported by Senator Strom Thurmond. In the first years, former President George Bush made a formal announcement every May, creating the impetus for states and agencies to get involved.
USCCB has been working with foreign born children since 1980 when refugees were entering the US from Southeast Asia. In partnership with the Office of Refugee Resettlement, Department of State, and Department of Human Services, and USCCB, the URM foster care programs have expanded to serve foreign born victims of trafficking, Cubans, Haitians, asylees, a growing number of refugee cases, and children who receive Special Immigrant Juvenile approvals.
To learn more about the children served and point of contact for those interested in foster parenting, please visit USCCB's website. You may also visit the Office of Refugee Resettlement website to learn more about this federally funded program.

It seems you will never come out ahead with Gannett! On a brighter note, I finally received my pension paper work and mailed it out yesterday, rolling over the entire amount into a IRA. To hell with them! (Gannett) Take what I can get from them, before it runs out!

I even sent them a pdf of the statement from NJ umemployment stating my actual benefit which is as I said above $24 less than the estimated by TMS on July 9th. Well, last week's phone call finally netted their answer. That the $25 we all receive from the Feds for every UI week is my difference. In other words, Gannett will not be responsible for that $24! Is this legal? Can Gannett opt out of fullfilling the correct total of my base pay that they should be paying in the weekly TPP payment?Has anyone else encountered this with TMS and Gannett?

Its part of the package. Maybe thats why you or your friends unemployment is messed up. I have had no problem at all with TMS. They are always pleasant and helpful and my check is always deposited on time. God knows I hate to admit that anything associated with Gannett has been OK, but thats the truth.

Mobilization for War
Well before the attack on Pearl Harbor, psychological experts began mobilizing to assist the war effort.[1] Their preparations, from the start, illustrated an awareness that offering patriotic assistance, earning professional advancement, and bringing psychological enlightenment to the business of government proceeded happily in unison. This link had been forged for psychologists during their first experience of world war, when they learned that war could accomplish what brilliant academic research and dedicated teaching failed to do. World War I "put the applications of psychology on the map and on the front page," fondly recalled James McKeen Cattell, a founding figure in professional psychology.[2]
Few such reminders were required. Psychology's historical debt to war was made abundantly clear by pivotal figures in World War I psychology who were still alive and professionally active in 1940.[3] Robert Yerkes, for example, had directed the military's mental testing program during World War I and became well known in the interwar period for his pioneering work in comparative psychology and primatology at Yale.[4] In preparation for World War II, he worked as a key member of the Emergency Committee in Psychology, launched in fall 1939 "to prepare the profession for a great national crisis."[5] The Emergency Committee, reorganized one year later under the auspices of the Division of Anthropology and Psychology of the National Research Council
(NRC), served as a central vehicle for mobilizing psychological experts for war work, reorganizing the profession, and planning for the postwar future. As psychology's "war cabinet," it served as the official link between many psychological professionals and the federal government.[6]
Psychological experts were early stirred to patriotic action, and they were optimistic from the outset that the war would do great things for their professions. According to Yerkes, effective mobilization would demonstrate "a large uncultivated professional area which should speedily be occupied by the psychotechnologies and related aspects of human engineering."[7] There was a gaping hole, which it was psychology's wartime mission to fill, in expert services related to "the facilitation and intelligent direction of the development and current behavior-experience of the normal person."[8] Everything from advice about childrearing and marriage to occupational counseling and education for personal happiness and adjustment would be needed. "I am looking beyond the present world conflagration," Yerkes boldly predicted in April 1941, "to a period of reconstruction during which innovations are likely to be the unescapable order of the day and the fashioning of a new civilization a necessity."[9]
Many of Yerkes's colleagues heeded this spirited call to public service and professional opportunity, confident that few experts were better suited than they for the task of designing a new social order. Before the United States had been in the war for a year, a full 25 percent of all Americans holding graduate degrees in psychology were at work on various aspects of the military crisis, most employed full-time by the federal government.[10] "This is no time for feelings of inferiority or for statistical scrupulosity," wrote prominent personality and social psychologist Gordon Allport in an effort to inspire "a bit of boldness" and calm the nerves of colleagues reluctant "to advocate policies not based upon 100 per cent scientific certainty."[11] "If the psychologist is tempted to say that he knows too little about the subject he may gain confidence by watching the inept way in which politicians, journalists, and men in public life fence with the problems of propaganda, public opinion, and morale."[12]
There were reasons to guard against overconfidence, however. In early 1941 Allport warned his colleagues: "Don't confuse lobbying for psychology with national service: —Working for the introduction of psychologists into national and local services may be helpful to the profession, but it is not necessarily beneficial to the nation."[13] The evolving relationship between psychologists and government could, Allport
thought, also pose problems. "Apparently the closer one comes to the Government," he noted, "the more complications and resistance one encounters. But after all, don't we all tend to reify 'the Government' and expect 'it' to help materialize our ideas? My experience, too, suggests that decentralized efforts are better. It is 'we, the people' who must invent and execute projects, so far as we can, by ourselves without leaning too much on Uncle Sam."[14]
By 1945 Allport and others were astounded when they compared their initial assessments of what psychology could contribute to the war effort to what had actually happened. The war ended amid a loud chorus of self-congratulations such as the following: "The application of psychology in selecting and training men, and in guiding the design of weapons so they would fit men, did more to help win this war than any other single intellectual activity."[15] Psychology's record had been impressive indeed, and as if to prove it, there were not nearly enough trained experts around to meet the rapidly increasing demand for psychological services in both the public and private sectors. The reputation of psychological experts had risen from one of lowly technicians to one of wise consultants and managers whose wartime accomplishments, especially in the military, deserved a generous payoff in public appreciation and government funds. In retrospect, it seemed clear that the war had given psychology its biggest boost ever, prodding the APA "to grow up to its responsibilities in this new world."[16]
Many psychiatrists were similarly motivated to build on the blueprint offered by their predecessors during World War I, vindicate their techniques of diagnosis and prediction, and recapture any ground that might have been lost due to psychological disarmament during the isolationist interwar period. At the outset of World War II, psychiatrists relied (just as psychologists did) on their World War I track record in testing and screening military recruits for potential emotional liabilities. Psychiatrists, however, had even older prototypes of service to the state to inspire their World War II effort, including the pioneering work of the Public Health Service's (PHS) psychiatric team, stationed on Ellis Island in 1905, for the purpose of keeping insane, and therefore undesirable, immigrants from slipping into the country.[17] The PHS psychiatric team was among the very first examples of psychological expertise being deployed by the federal government in an important area of public policy—immigration—distant from psychiatry's traditional spheres of authority: insanity and asylums.
One tremendous advantage the experts had in 1940 was that there
were so many of them, at least in comparison to their numbers in 1917. Among psychiatrists, nearly 3,000 eventually participated in the World War II screening program, compared to a mere 700 in World War I. In both world wars, however, psychiatrists involved in wartime screening programs represented the vast majority of all U.S. psychiatrists: less than 1,000 at the time of World War I and more than 2,500 in 1941, when the United States entered World War II.[18] Between 1920 and 1946, membership in the American Psychiatric Association had increased more than fourfold, from 937 to 4,010, with a surge of new recruits added to the professional ranks as a result of their war experiences.[19] American Psychological Association membership had grown more than elevenfold during these same years, from 393 to 4,427.[20] At the close of World War II, around 1,700 psychologists worked directly for the World War II military, and many others had been involved in research for and consultation to war-related government agencies. A significant number—especially women—made war-related contributions in civilian areas ranging from organizing community forums for women newly employed in the war industries on how best to feed their babies to the general dispensation of "Psychological First Aid."[21] By 1945 the total numbers of psychologists and psychiatrists were running about even. Both professions would experience a historically unprecedented postwar growth curve, far outstripping general population growth or even the spectacular growth of the health-related professions.[22]

Top ten vintage shops
What's old is now: Score everything from gently used designer frocks, collectables to mod furnishings from these past masters.
Vintage Underground
Browsing through the piles of heavy costume jewels at this Wicker Park store feels a lot like rummaging through your grandma's basement—that is, if your grandma also hoarded wares like 18th-century paintings (on sale for, uh, $85,000). The shop also stocks a handful of more budget-friendly home furnishings.
Post 27
Angela Finney-Hoffman, ditched her design job at Goliath Holly Hunt to open this warm, warehouse-like establishment, with one goal: To cull quality, lesser-known modern design items and sell them at friendly prices.
This Ukrainian Village shop aims to marry modern aesthetics with mostly mid-century vintage items. Attire for men and women, like button-up vests and taffeta party dresses, range between $20 and $200, respectively, while furniture pieces such as Heywood-Wakefield chairs go for up to $1,200.
Una Mae's
The main floor here houses a hipster-chic selection of menswear and womenswear (skinny jeans, jumpers and adorable jackets) with a vintage flair, but wind your way up the spiral staircase to the second floor to find the real-deal moth collectors.
Lenny & Me
Vintage and thrift attire (and occasional housewares) share the floor space in this rather sprawling resale store, where you can buy, sell or trade. Keep an eye out for steals like a gently worn Diane von Furstenberg wrap.
Silver Moon
Owner Liz Meyer, a fashion stylist for Aerosmith, has compiled a beautiful collection of day wear and formal attire. Standouts include striped taffeta cocktail dresses from the 1950s, along with a heavy focus on Vivienne Westwood.
While this off-the-beaten-path vintage shop stocks plenty of looks from the "Me Decade" and beyond, ten percent of the merchandise is new items by local designers such as screenprinted T-shirts and scarves by Kiyomi Kimble. All resale items are under $100.
Clothes Optional
Thanks to its main floor and basement area, you have plenty of opportunities to score an awesome old-school find at this Lakeview resale shop. The store stocks used clothes from brands like Levi's, Lacoste, Gloria Vanderbilt, and Le Tigre, as well as retouched vintage clothing lines such as Katemade and SquirrleyGee.
As store owner Phil Tadros developed a friendship with a set of 70-year-old twins, he learned about their massive collection of vintage clothes and antiques. And when the twins decided it was time to part with their goods, they turned to Tadros. Voila, Haystack was born. In addition to old-school clothes, the Lakeview shop also features new graphic T-shirts by Isotope (two for $30) and a growing collection of Schwinn bikes with banana seats.
Knee Deep Vintage
Tired of traveling from Brighton Park to the North Side for cool, thrifty finds, Trent Marinelli and Carlos Lourenco decided to take matters into their own hands by opening this vintage shop in nearby Pilsen. Just off the Pink Line, the store (in a former meeting space the duo renovated) specializes in clothing and accessories from the 1940s to '80s ($10 and up).

If you've ever been sick to your stomach while riding in a car, train, airplane, or boat, you know exactly what motion sickness feels like. It's no fun.
To understand motion sickness, it helps to understand a few parts of your body and how they affect the way you feel movement:
The brain gets an instant report from these different parts of your body and tries to put together a total picture about what you are doing just at that moment. But if any of the pieces of this picture don't match, you can get motion sickness.
For example, if you're riding in a car and reading a book, your inner ears and skin receptors will detect that you are moving forward. However, your eyes are looking at a book that isn't moving, and your muscle receptors are telling your brain that you're sitting still. So the brain gets a little confused. Things may begin to feel a little scrambled inside your head at that point.
When this happens, you might feel really tired, dizzy, or sick to your stomach. Sometimes you might even throw up. And if you're feeling scared or anxious, your motion sickness might get even worse.
To avoid motion sickness:
If you feel this way easily during any kind of movement, it's a good idea to go to the doctor. He or she will want to make sure there's nothing wrong with your inner ears or any of the other body parts that sense movement.
But for typical motion sickness, your parent may be able to give you medicine before you travel. For some kids, it may help to wear pressure bracelets that can be bought at the drugstore.
If you feel yourself getting sick while you're traveling in a car, it might help if the driver finds a safe spot where you can get out and walk around a little bit. If you can't pull over, make sure you have a plastic bag in the car — just in case!

Over a period of months, a number of institutional investors have begun taking steps back from the speculative rush into food commodities. Most recently, the Stockholm-based financial services group, Nordea, announced it would remove food commodities from their financial products. This comes after Deutsche Bank made a similar (if temporary) ban. In 2010, the California State Teachers' Retirement System pulled back from commodities, saying, "social issues are a factor in all our investments."
So, a trickle. Is it a trend?
Some activists are showing up at corporate shareholder meetings and trying various lobby and pressure tactics.
There's some evidence that the commodities investment play may not be working out so well—speculative bubbles do correct eventually. But most of the biggest players remain serenely unfazed by both erratic performance and potential collateral damage (i.e. food price volatility). Goldman Sachs, under Robert Rubin, pioneered the field of commodity index funds. Goldman has been accused of creating the food crisis. Has Goldman ever answered?

It is about the microscopic bugs that live all over your body – on your skin, in your mouth, in your nose, and in particular your digestive tract. These bugs are so numerous that they outnumber your own cells by a factor of 10. You are vastly more microbe than human.
Before you get so disgusted you stop reading, consider this: many of these bugs are as essential to your life as your own cells. These microbes have been around since before humans existed, and our bodies have evolved to adapt to their presence just as they have adapted to ours.
They are also – to quote one expert – the "last frontier" of medical research, a crucial aspect of our health that scientists rarely considered until recently. It is also one of the most daunting challenges facing biologists today.
"We know next to nothing about this whole universe that we host," according to Bruce Birren, co-director of the Genome Sequencing and Analysis Program at the Broad Institute, a research collaborative between Harvard and MIT scientists. "It's as if we're coming to a planet for the first time and asking: what do we find?"
What experts like Birren are discovering is the powerful role these tiny bugs might be playing in our lives. The 1,000-or-so species of microbes that live in our guts control digestion, and possibly so much more. They are strongly linked with the rise in allergies and asthma, and with digestive problems like Crohn's disease and colitis. They also influence the immune system, and there is a growing body of evidence suggesting that gut microbes could have an influence on cancer risk. They could also dictate whether we are packing on extra pounds or liable to get diabetes.
And that is not all. Recent studies have shown that germ-free mice are much more vulnerable to stress. Two strains of mice known for their distinct personalities – one warm and friendly, the other aggressive and standoffish – swapped traits when given each other's gut microbes. Other studies have altered rats' response to heart attacks by changing the gut microbes they were fed before the attack. And a group of mice fed a high-protein diet had different gut microbes and better memory skills than mice fed a typical diet.
"We can't really understand human health without understanding how we interact with all these microbes," says Birren.
Code breakers
This year sees the culmination of two major projects seeking to better understand the full repertoire of bugs that colonize us – what scientists call the microbiome. In 2007, the United States government launched a five-year, $157 million Human Microbiome Project, aimed at sequencing the genomes of microbial populations living in the mouths, guts, armpits and other orifices of 300 healthy Americans.
The following year the European Commission launched a $29 million project called Metagenomics of the Human Intestinal Tract, or MetaHIT, which focuses on gut bacteria only. Initial findings from both efforts were presented at the International Human Microbiome Congress in Paris last month. "Both have made absolutely tremendous progress," says Dusko Ehrlich, coordinator of MetaHIT and research director at the National Institute for Agricultural Research in France.
While some researchers are wary of overhyping any results, Ehrlich says he and other scientists are confident in the potential of the human microbiome research – even more so than they were a decade ago when all the talk was about the human genome. "It's hard to be a prophet," Ehrlich says, "but we see so much more potential in the human-other-genome than in our own genome."

Ian-Curtis You sir do not have the clue. I first visited Marco Island as a day trip back in 1994. I fell in love as most do and was hooked. I was a "day tripper" since I purchased a Deltona Home in 2002 and have been just a visitor since. So lets see, I have been paying property tax in full since 02, and I guess you have been on homestead reduced rate. I pay school tax and have no kids yet I pay for yours to go to school. I do not use a drop of water yet I pay 50.00 per month so you can have utility. I pay for garbage yet I do not have any trash as I am not there. You have trash every week. I pay for roads and infastructure yet I do not use any of it I have no car down there I drive mine down on the very few times that I have been there in the past 13 years. I pay property insurance, a mortage and taxes all so you and your family can enjoy the Island, have Police and Fire service and you have the guts to say I do not get it? My wife and I work full time jobs to support that house so we can retire there.
The vision of Marco Island was to always be a "retirement community" get it. It was people like you who "flopped" there and "mooched" off the part time residents. That's right "MOOCHED" so do not tell me were to live mooch as you should kiss my butt as I support you daily stupid. You must be so dumb not to see that us "833 holes" pay your freight freeloader.
Read your history about Marco Island you and the other "mooches" want to change the island now that you have used it to your advantage. People like you make me sick.
"I have been paying property tax
"I pay school tax
"I pay for yours
"I pay 50.00 per month
"I pay for garbage
"I pay for roads and infastructure
"I pay property insurance, a mortage and taxes
Wow what a whole lot of "I"'s....

Considering the age displayed by the bust, I suggest to give him grey hair. Less and longer fibers.

Yes, you're right.
I deleted the FiberMesh hair, and have begun to paint it greyer.
It's a lot of fun, I can spend hours to tweak and modify such a model ;-)
That's much better!
New settings with the BPR, and new LightCap. Added hair with Fibermesh too.
I can now begin a new character :-)
Excellent job, sculpt long hours, and prosper.
Langelot, I've been meaning to post here but I keep getting side-tracked. Anyway, I love your Nimoy/Spock bust. I've been a Trekkie for longer than you've probably been alive lol and you nailed this caricature to the wall! You should do "baby Spock" (from the last movie) next!
An old dog, learning some new tricks.
Finished works
Push the button, Frank!
Joel: I can't do it... this just isn't working. I don't know how Shatner does it every week!
Crowe T. Robot: I don't know why he does it, or who lets him do it!
Many thanks, Voodoodad and Truubluu !
It's a good idea to model the new young Spock, I'llprobably do it. In France, Star Trek was not very known before the 80's movies. The latest JJ Abrams Star Trek movie is just great, I have seen it several times.
Now, it's time to do the model of the man who made the space travel possible ;-)
Just around 1h30 of work, and a lot to do to sculpt all the details and the special expression of the genius.
So fast and So Cute. The expression likeness of genius. My favorite part is the hair.
I have had a lot of work, but it's now finished, and I can now sculpt my little genius.
The hair is temporarly done, but I have to redo it.
einstein turned out really great, a really nice version of him! Definently funny aswell with his gigantic nose
keep it going!

I have done some animations with the dog I sculpted in ZB. The rendering is done in Modo. The face animations are done in ZB, and exported directly in LightWave 11 by GoZ. It is very funny to make these morphs in Zbrush.
The animation is done in messiah, and the camera tracking with Syntheyes.

Walk AwayPros: Good Price for a refurbished IPhone. Phone came in a Apple IPhone Box, no scratches, great condition Cons: Stolen Phone Other Thoughts: Purchased 4 days before mothers day and took advantage of free 2nd day shipping. My wifes old IPhone was stolen and couldn't see spending $500 + on a new one. Took the phone to Sprint to get it switched over and was told the phone was still under another persons account. Then was told legally he should take the phone from me, but I guess he believed my story about buying it on New Egg. Called New Egg that evening and opened a case. After well over a week they informed me that I needed to send the phone back and that they would send me another one. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

Global Accountabilities
Participation, Pluralism, and Public Ethics
Accountability is seen as an essential feature of governments, businesses and NGOs. This volume treats it as a socially constructed means of control that can be used by the weak as well as the powerful. It contributes analytical depth to the diverse debates on accountability in modern organizations by exploring its nature, forms and impacts in civil society organizations, public and inter-governmental agencies and private corporations. The contributors draw from a range of disciplines to demonstrate the inadequacy of modern rationalist prescriptions for establishing and monitoring accountability standards, arguing that accountability frameworks attached to principal-agent logics and applied universally across cultures typically fail to achieve their objectives. By examining a diverse range of empirical examples and case studies, this book underscores the importance of grounding accountability procedures and standards in the divergent cultural, social and political settings in which they operate.

NGOs and Organizational Change
Discourse, Reporting, and Learning
The organizational dynamics of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) have become increasingly complex as they have evolved from small local groups into sophisticated multinational organizations with global networks. Alnoor Ebrahim's study analyses the organizational evolution of NGOs as a result of their increased profile as bilateral partners in delivering aid. Focusing on the relationships between NGOs and their international network of funders, it examines not only the tensions created by the reporting requirement of funders, but also the strategies of resistance employed by NGOs. Ebrahim shows that systems of reporting, monitoring, and learning play essential roles in shaping not only what NGOs do but, more importantly, how they think about what they do. The book combines original case studies and research with an extensive review of literature. It draws from multiple fields including organizational behaviour, social and critical theory, civil society studies, and environmental and natural resource management.

Re: PICTURE POST II!
I wish it didn't have a sunroof, being 6'4", it was a tight fit. But it was fun to drive. I felt bad turning it in today. When I returned it, he asked if I had any problems with it and I told him that at 125mph there was a nasty wobble in he left front tire. After he picked his jaw up of the floor, I told him that I was just kidding.

US-Rape-God's-Will -- By Wayne Drash
The pregnant 12-year-old girl was strung out on heroin and looked like a walking skeleton when she arrived at the hospital. The conversation that followed, said Phoenix police chaplain John South, has stuck with him ever since. "Do you know who the father is?" South recalled asking her. "She said, 'Yes, it's my biological father. He's the one who hooked me on heroin so he could continue to rape me whenever he wanted to.' " The Protestant chaplain has consoled about 50 pregnant rape victims -- typically girls raped by their fathers -- in his years working with the Phoenix Police Department. South describes himself as "pro-life," but when it comes to dealing with a girl or woman impregnated by a rapist, he keeps his personal views to himself. "I don't give them a lecture or preach at them," South said. "I've seen crimes beyond comprehension." Republican U.S. Senate candidate Richard Mourdock stirred controversy during a debate in Indiana Tuesday when he said pregnancies from rape are "something that God intended to happen." The instant reaction in political circles was predictable: Democrats decried him, and many conservative Republicans defended his position as steadfastly "pro-life."
Given their geography, Bahamians know a thing or two about hurricanes. As Hurricane Sandy began to blow through the Bahamas after pummeling eastern Cuba, Nassau resident Stephan Rolle wasn't overly worried. It is a "small storm" with "mediocre wind," he said of the Category 2 hurricane with winds of 105 mph. But as the center of the storm churned 125 miles east-southeast of Nassau on Thursday, Rolle and others also knew they had to prepare.
The guns that have ravaged much of Syria since March 2011 may fall silent Friday, now that Syria's government has agreed to a cease-fire.
Sudan remained defiant and angry Thursday after a fatal late-night bombing of a weapons factory in that east African country -- a sophisticated attack a Sudanese official continued to blame on Israel.
If Paolo Gabriele ever does get the pope's pardon, it won't be before he serves some jail time. Gabriele, a former butler to Pope Benedict XVI, will start his 18-month sentence in a Vatican cell Thursday for taking secret papers from the pope's personal apartment and leaking them to an author who included them in a best-selling book, the Vatican said.
Radiation levels in fish caught near the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant remain high long after the 2011 meltdowns there, suggesting contamination from the site might still be seeping into Pacific waters, a U.S. researcher reported Thursday.
In the famously opaque world of North Korean politics, the ongoing leadership transition is in some ways proving more dagger than cloak with reports of executions and purges of top military officials in recent days.
Morten Storm, a Danish double agent who says he worked with the CIA and Danish intelligence to track down American-born al Qaeda cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, says the Danish intelligence agency PET tried to buy his silence after he stopped working for them earlier this year.
Cynthia Osokogu had it all: Beauty -- she was a former model -- intelligence and business savvy. She also modeled herself on her idol, Tyra Banks, and was emerging as a successful businesswoman. On July 21 this year, Osokogu traveled to Lagos from the country's capital Abuja, ostensibly, to meet with retailers whom she thought might be able to offer her better prices on clothes and accessories for her fashion boutique. After landing, she called her mother to tell her that she had arrived safely. But Cynthia never made it to the meetings because there weren't any. She was found strangled to death in her hotel room the next morning.
Four months holed up in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London has been "a little like living in a space station" but beats prison, fugitive WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange said Thursday.

Hello Everyone and Welcome to my log. My name is Kevin and I have been honorably chosen to run a stack provided by JD and Athletix Sports. I'm currently in PHASE III of my training which began in January. This summer I have made it my mission to get as lean as possible while maintaining all my strength. Many people spend a lifetime by bulking and cutting. I on the other hand have gone on multiple schemes to cut weight and each time I do I actually gain weight. In fact I gain very easily.
Over the last two and half years I've competing in several Powerlifting contests. One as recently as June 23-24 @ York Barbell, called the 2012 IPA Powerlifting Spectacular. I started with PureAthletic Power and began building my brand from there. PureAthleticPower or PAP is a non sanctioned venue which continually grew within the Southwest Virginia Area but failed to give anything worth being proud of. I have collected several plastic trophies and certificates, all which have made their way into the trash. The guy running PAP has billed the participants for large amounts to participate and purchased cheap awards. I have earned nothing less than first place in the RAW SUBmaster SHW division This last contest I earned a significant trophy which has made me proud to hold and cherish for a lifetime. A new chapter has begun in my career.
To go back a bit furthur, I stand 6'5" and weigh according to York BB, 351.2 lbs. Wow. Since last August 2011 I weighed in @ 308. All which has been gained utilizing nothing but natural products. Sure you can call BS in fact, I will even go furthur to tell you summer 92 I weighed in @ 190. I grew up playing basketball all my life until I graduated colege. My downfall of weight gain began when I broke my ankle senior year as a ROTC Army Cadet @ Shippensburg University. One thing no one told me was you can't eat like you do if your not running or balling. Thus began a huge rollercoaster of gainning and losing weight until I topped out at 290 in 2005 while in the Navy.
Did I ever play football? I never played growing up except a little pop warner, yet daily I get mistaken for playing RIGHT now. Folks I just turned 39 last friday. I have walked on to two semi pro teams in the past HAMPTON ROADS BULLDOGS, BLUEFIELD BARONS and possibly this fall I may walk onto an ARENA team in Kentucky, 45 minutes away.
Why the long winded history. It's not nearly enough to explain who I am. It is enough to get you started. I never in my life have I utilized enhancements or any other drugs to gain my size. In fact I always try to lose it, yet I gain and it's a bit ridiculous, I will not sacrifice my strength to do it.
I averaged 405 on the press but 425 is a personal best in competition, I have pushed a 450 in the gym. Utilizing the USPLABS line I have gained a tremmendous amount of strength throughout last year and now. My lineup currently is Licogenix/Formula X/Division 1.
I follow many logs on this forum and decided to add my own in order to hold myself accountable but to continue striving for the big 500. Nothing will stop me. I plan on updating weekly. I love powerlifting and plan to do it till I can't lift my arms. Without furthur ado lets get this started! Salute!

Here's Wink Davis picking up apple tree trimmings
Wink Davis and Max Eisele of Mesa Winds Farm needed help to clear out apple and peach tree trimmings in their orchard. So, the call was put out requesting volunteers to help them out with the offering of 10 pounds of gala apples in September.
Ken, Lisa, Elaine, Julia and yours truly pitched in. I would call us a mini-mob. We had to pull out the tree tops from the rows so that Wink could pick up them up and then rake up the smaller trimmings.
We put in a good 3 hours work, and Max and Wink were extremely grateful. Afterwards, we enjoyed beer, wine and chili made from local ingredients - excellent reward for the work we put in. We each got a card to remind us to pick up some apples in September.

The candidates—including former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, former Defense Minister Shigeru Ishiba and party secretary general Nobuteru Ishihara—slammed China in a debate Saturday ahead of the Liberal Democratic Party's presidential election, scheduled for Sept. 26.
They called for Japan to bolster its control of disputed East China Sea islands, saying they are Japan's inviolable sovereign territory. They also discussed Japan's sagging economy and its plan to phase out nuclear power.
Analysts believe the LDP could win big in upcoming parliamentary elections. If it does, whoever wins the party leadership race could become Japan's next prime minister.

I was reviewing the photos from last summer's WoodenBoat Show (http://www.thewoodenboatshow.com/)
Some of the photos showed the boats being built by particpants during the event. I think the construction method is called glued lap. The pictures showed the pieces of ply wired together with copper wire like a stitch and glue boat.
Some questions come to mind:
- Is glued lap stronger than stitch and glue or is it used primarily for asthetics?
- If it is generally better to leave a slight gap between panels for the epoxy fillets in a S&G build, why do the ply laps touch one another in ply lap? Or do they?

The car, shown as a concept, will be called the Q30, and hits the premium compact segment.
