Arizona Cardinals
Arizona Cardinals' Ted Larsen could move into starting left guard spot
GLENDALE, Ariz. - His versatility earned him a contract in the offseason.
His on-field play may have just earned him a starting job.
Say hello to 27-year-old Ted Larsen, the Arizona Cardinals new left guard.
But, wait; doesn't that spot belong to Jonathan Cooper, whom the team invested the seventh overall draft pick in only two years ago?
"He's in the training room (dealing with a turf toe). He can't do anything," head coach Bruce Arians said rather matter-of-factly Monday.
OK ,then what about Earl Watford, part of that same 2013 draft class? Has he not impressed enough to be given a shot?
"He did really, really some good things (at Minnesota) and he did some rookie things still," Arians answered. "(His play) needs to be more consistent."
Enter Larsen, signed this offseason to a two-year contract as an unrestricted free agent after spending his first four seasons with Tampa Bay.
For the past three weeks, he has been manning the center position after Lyle Sendlein suffered a calf injury just days into training camp.
Of Larsen's 31 career starts, 11 have been at center.
"Really quality player. We loved him at left guard when we got him, which is where he played mostly last year. But to see him play center so well was really pleasing to know that he added (to) the depth, quality depth," Arians said, before adding, "When Lyle comes back (likely on Wednesday), there's a real good chance he'll be our starting left guard."
When told of his coach's comments, Larsen, with a straight face, responded, "Ready to go wherever they decide to put me."
The former sixth-round pick out of North Carolina State has appeared in 60 consecutive games dating back to his rookie season in 2010, including all 16 games in each of the past three seasons.
Never, though, has Larsen been a fixture at one position.
"That's part of the deal. If you're going to be a backup, if you're going to be that sixth guy, you've got to play all three (interior line spots)," he said. "That's something I've just been forced to do in my time in the NFL, so it's something I'm ready to do."
Just how long Larsen remains the starting left guard may be determined by how long Cooper remains sidelined.
"That turf toe was pretty significant. It's still swollen a little bit," GM Steve Keim told Doug and Wolf on Arizona Sports 98.7 FM Monday. "We're hoping to try to get him back at some point this week; if not this week, for sure early next week."
That is, if the turf toe injury heals sufficiently.
"There's no doubt that so far throughout this camp (Larsen) has been one of our five best offensive linemen," Keim said.
Added Arians, "We're going to put the best five out there. There's no doubt about that."

Wal-Mart agrees to safety fixes at 2,857 stores
Wal-Mart has agreed to improve safety conditions for employees who use trash compactors and cleaning chemicals at more than 2,800 stores as part of a settlement agreement with the Labor Department.
The retail giant has also agreed to pay a $190,000 fine to fix hazards discovered during an Occupational Safety and Health Administration inspection at a store in Rochester, N.Y.
The agreement covers 2,857 Wal-Mart and Sam's Club stores in 28 states that follow federal OSHA standards. The 22 states that operate their own OSHA inspection programs could negotiate similar agreements.
Under the federal settlement, Wal-Mart has agreed to improve worker training programs for operating hazardous equipment and use of cleaning chemicals.
A Wal-Mart spokesman did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

ULE Trigger on AGD RT-Pro
I'm thinking about trying the ULE trigger in my RT-Pro. I currently get great rapid-fire with the ninja super high pressure reg.
I'd like to hear from someone who has used the ULE Trigger upgrade. Does is make a huge difference in the trigger? Will it affect my rapid fire, or just make the trigger lighter?
as I understand it, the ULT eliminates the RT effect and lessens the trigger pull, though it's still not walkable. IT is possible to rapid-fire with it, through overshimming it, but it's not designed to do that.
fullofpaint is correct (though some claim them to be walkable). The ULE Trigger pull is nice because you get control over the reactivity of your mag. With fewer shims it becomes less reactive, but with 3-4 shims it can be downright scary fast. adding more shims has a similar effect to shortening your on/off pin. They are also great for pneumags so you can run lower pressure on the LPR & Ram.
Thanks guys. I want to try it but I might hold off. I like my reactive trigger and don't want to spend $50 on something that might lessen the effect. It's gonna have to go to the bottom of my wish list.
As long as you have a RT Pro and not a Retro Mag you're good to go with the ULE kit as stated in the above. Although I love the RT effect of the X-Valve (and it's retro predecessors), after setting up mine with a ULE trigger kit and properly tuning the shims, I've kept it exactly like that because I love the crazy crazy speeds that it can get up to - especially with the advent of the LX bolt and force feed loaders (switched from a Halo B to Magna to Rotor which would seem to be the fast hopper I've ever owned). Like I said I loved the retro effect on the trigger pull, but it is what it is. Although it's for an almost completely different purpose/function, I keep my gun setup so I can trip the trigger and shoot ropes fast than a lot of the electropneumatic guys on ramp...

This is my first post and I'm new to the birth club so sorry if this looks weird. My daughter's birth day is 02/15. Her first tooth came through on 10/06 or right before she turned 8 months but she now has 8 teeth (4 on top and 4 on bottom). It seems to me that her teeth are coming through ahead of schedule. I don't remember my nephews or godkids getting their teeth this quickly. Anyone else's little one have 8 or more teeth?

I think we're at about 8 also an dd's bday is 2/17. Some baby's just teeth early it's really not a huge deal
Posted 12/28/2012
We have 8 totally in (same as yours) and now her molars are coming in and giving us heck!
Posted 12/29/2012
My little guy had eight teeth by 8 months. I've heard that all babies are different so worry not. Also, @cherielove can you see the molars? My lo has been chewing on everything, drooling like crazy and a bit fussy. I'm suspicious that it might be his molars.
Posted 12/30/2012
Lo just got # 9, working on 10 and molars. Not fun.
Posted 12/30/2012
We have SIX. Yep, SIX coming in right now... :( That will give us eight total for our 2/9 baby.

I am so excited to share this easy Thanksgiving decor idea! Have you heard of Wallternatives? They are fabric decals that you can use to quickly and simply change a room! And there are so many fun choices too!
After taking down our Halloween decor, our living room was looking pretty sad and boring. Luckily I had the adorable Black and White Fall Phrases Removable Wall Decal Set to spruce things up! Here's the before photo:
And here is the after:
Isn't this fun? It took me less than 10 mins to put up the decals, and they were so nice to work with. Because they are fabric, they have a really nice feeling to them. I love how simple they were to get positioned too, because they peeled off and re-stuck easily (which is good because it's not always going to line up just right on the first try)!
This is the large size of the Thanksgiving Phrases pack, which also comes in a colorful version. I liked the look and feeling of the chalkboard style, especially with the pops of color from our fall flowers.
There are also fun options for Christmas, and of course, ideas for all year too. In fact, there are even actual chalkboard options. How fun is that?
It's so fun to walk into the room now! And it was just so easy to do. Big thanks to Wallternatives for providing my decals for this project. I can't wait to use some again!

NEW YORK (AP) — A final steel beam was lifted Monday atop a new World Trade Center skyscraper — the first expected to open at the site next year since the twin towers were decimated on 9/11.
With BeBe Winans singing "God Bless America," workers raised their hardhats in tribute as the mammoth beam rose slowly into the Manhattan sky, swaying from a steel rope hoisted by a crane.
A U.S. flag attached to the bottom of the beam fluttered above several hundred spectators at the topping-off ceremony.
"Ten years later, it's pretty remarkable," said a teary-eyed Sally Rexach, a nurse who aids workers constructing 4 World Trade Center.
She was at ground zero just after Sept. 11, 2001, supporting workers who combed through the smoking debris in search of human remains.
"This is a very proud moment; it's full circle," she said, glancing across the 16-acre site where the uncompleted One World Trade Center in the northwest corner is already New York's tallest structure.
In the southeast corner facing the 9/11 memorial, the 72-story tower that was topped off Monday is to open for business in the fall of 2013 — the first occupied high-rise at the new trade center site since the Sept. 11 attacks.
The 1.8-million-square-foot skyscraper, designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Fumihiko Maki, will primarily house commercial offices. A third of the office space will be set aside for the headquarters of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which owns the site.
An atrium will house shops and restaurants.
At the moment, it is the second tallest skyscraper on the rebuilt World Trade Center site after One World Trade Center, although two other towers eventually will surpass the height of 4 World Trade Center.
On Monday, more than 100 construction workers signed their names to the white-painted steel, with elected officials and developer Larry Silverstein looking on.
"Everybody's put their blood, sweat and tears into this," said John Rzeznik, a project manager at the site.
Minutes earlier, in the half-completed, marble-graced entrance, Winans opened the ceremony by singing the national anthem. Listening to it, some construction workers were moved to hold their hardhats over their hearts.
Silverstein told those assembled that his goal as a developer was "to give New Yorkers back the city terrorists tried to take away."
After years of funding and planning disagreements that at times threatened progress at the site, Silverstein acknowledged, "It's been a very tough time." But, he added, "I've always believed in downtown New York."
In his remarks, New York State Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver remembered that certain naysayers had warned lower Manhattan "was dead" after the terror attack.
"But Larry, you were right," Silver said. "Never bet against New York."
Some workers wore yellow T-shirts bearing the words, "Yes we can."

There is a base, or a ship, or a city, where our heroes spend their time throughout the story. It may either be the location where most of the story takes place, or it could be a set piece only seen once in a while. Through some course of events, be it an enemy attack, or a natural disaster, or some kind of accident, everything has pitched into a state of chaos. People are wounded, equipment damaged, chaos and confusion reigns supreme, and everything is on fire. The first order of the day, aside possibly from dealing with the cause of the damage, is putting out the fires, tending to the wounded, and repairing the damage so everything can go back to normal. Expect all this to be going on even as the driving crisis that caused everything is still ongoing. The main characters will often be split apart and unable to communicate with each other or rely upon each other directly. Expect at least one character to reach down inside himself and find the resolve and resourcefulness he needs to solve a major problem without the team mates he normally relies on. The Engineer and the Old Soldier will be at their best here, leading their men in the dangerous and critical work of getting everything operational again. The trope draws its name from an expression used on naval and merchant vessels, for urgent repair work that is done while the ship is at sea. If unsuccessful, our characters will often be forced to segue directly into Abandon Ship. Note: when applying this trope to video games, it should only be done when dealing with such repairs as a plot point, as opposed to game mechanics centering on unit healing or repair.

It's time to announce the winner of March's Lawyer of the Month competition. Readers had five male candidates to choose from, ranging from celebrated conservative litigators, to loud-mouthed state officials, to troubled Biglaw partners. But in the end, only one man had the bravado necessary to beat out the rest — some "gumption," if you will.
Let's see who took home the title of Lawyer of the Month for March, an honor surely worth replying-all about….

"It's more than a school bus. On long rides, it becomes a giant incubator, filled with the churning psyches of forty-eight kids. Inside, a kind of... chemical reaction takes place. People change. Friends become enemies. Enemies become friends. And a class trip becomes a journey into the darkest recesses of your own soul.And with those words begins "Yellow Fever", an episode filled with betrayal, misunderstanding, manipulation, love lost, and ear flicking.Our journey begins with a briefing from Ms. Jerpoozy, who goes on at length about field trip rules as our protagonists are about to embark on a trip to the Gulch County Milk Museum. The number one rule is that no one is allowed to sing "If You're Happy and You Know It", as it's disturbing to their bus driver, Stu Benedict. It had been his favorite song, shared with him by fellow driver Sally Knorp, who—of course—has dumped him. Again. Over nothing! Okay, sure, he's fairly calm this time around, but he's nearing his breaking point.Meanwhile, someone's left Ellen a love letter promising to reveal themselves by sitting next to her on the way over, and it's bugging Big Pete for some reason even he can't put his finger on. Big Pete, in spite of his better instincts, suddenly becomes a Jerk Ass with regards to Ellen's secret admirer, taking the seat next to her and teasing her over the letter.And then there's Mark Twib, the local bully magnet, with his insanely flickable ears. And Wendell Hyde, who wants to sing for special events. Della Sum, meanwhile, has bus-ride-induced bladder issues, Teddy is determined not to finish his lunch during the ride, and Bill develops an instinct for practical joking—he hangs a sign on the window of the bus reading "Help! Being kidnapped! Call police!" Guess how long it takes for the bus to get pulled over.Bus Driver Stu's story checks out, but to make sure he's fit to drive the cops put Stu through all sorts of coordination tests. As Big Pete congratulates Bill on a successful prank, Ellen calls Pete on being an asshole, even saying she wouldn't be surprised if he started picking on Mark Twib next.Stu passes his tests and reboards the bus in a particularly foul mood, sending Big Pete to the back of the bus for arguing. He is greeted with open arms by Endless Mike, as to Pete's shock Bill takes the seat next to Ellen. Tensions begin to run high, as Della's bladder has set the bus two hours behind schedule, and to top it off Bus Driver Stu is horribly lost—he even passes by street signs entirely in Spanish and Korean. As he stops to ask a farmer for directions, only to find out that he's just a scarecrow, Ellen finds out that Bill has absolutely no knowledge of the love letter and only sat with Ellen for the hell of it. Big Pete doesn't know this, of course, and with a little convincing from Endless Mike he decides to get revenge on Bill for stabbing him in the back. Pete puts some mentholated warm lather (undetectable to human touch, painful when exposed to a popped zit) on Bill's hand and then gets Bill to touch his face, sending him into a world of pain. Mike, Pete and their crew celebrate by pouring four whole bottles of soda pop down the aisles of the bus, causing all their classmates to have to get out and pee.Ellen and Big Pete get into a big fight, and Endless Mike congratulates him on taking down Bill, asking him what he has in mind to piss off Ellen. Pete remembers Ellen's earlier suggestion that he'd turned into the sort of creep who'd flick Mark Twib's ears, and does that. Twib turns around and is confused to see Pete is the one who did it, and Ellen declares that she's never talking to him again.Once back on the bus, Twib decides to exact his revenge upon his classmates, by singing "If You're Happy and You Know It". Stu seems fine, though, as he starts happily singing along...and then dancing through the aisles. With the bus moving. Towards a cliff face. Only one man can save them now!Unfortunately, Wendell Hyde's Chekhov's Skill is ultimately useless, as trying to change the song does absolutely nothing. Stu just keeps dancing to "If You're Happy". It's only the cry of "NO ONE'S DRIVING THE BUS!" that finally makes Stu's senses—or something approximating them—return to him, and he hits the brakes just in time to save them all.They finally show up at the Milk Museum, which looks suspiciously like a farm, as an outraged Ms. Jerpoozy demands to know who sang that song, and says the culprit will receive an F on the project and four weeks detention. (How she knows it was sung is never explained.) Big Pete takes the hit, feeling horribly guilty, and is told to sit on the bus for the entirety of the trip. Endless Mike kicks him out of his gang. When Pete apologizes to Mark, Mark reveals that he sent the love letter, and decides to let Pete and Ellen figure out where they stand before trying again. Pete apologizes to Bill, who accepts, but not before slapping a kick-me sign on Pete's back. Ellen and Pete make up as well, and she decides to sit on the bus with him while the rest of the class tours the museum.

brands under fire
Posted by Dale Buss on May 15, 2014 07:11 PM
Is the fast-food business model creaking under the weight of new wage protests? "Living-wage" advocates hope so after today's global demonstrations in support of better pay and workers' rights, billed as the biggest fast food strike ever.
On Thursday, labor and union activists and Occupy Wall Street alumni, as well as thousands of fast-food workers who walked off their jobs, came together to protest at least 17 major QSR chains in some 30 countries, calling for wages of $15 an hour as well as a right to form a union, organized by a group calling themselves Fast Food Forward.
The movement, which has its roots in the US where one-day protests have occured in over 150 cities for the last 18 months, stalled sales at fast-food outlets around the world as protesters demonstrated in front of restaurants, on sidewalks and inside malls, some even donning Ronald McDonald costumes.Continue reading...

Burger King may have come up with a great way to kick rival McDonald's when it's down: Go after the Golden Arches' signature product.
That's what Burger King is doing with new improvements to its three-month-old Big King sandwich, which now will have 0.8 ounces more beef than the Big Mac. The chain has been testing the beefier new Big King at 200 locations in South Florida and experiencing a 10 percent jump in guest-satisfaction scores, said the Motley Fool.
And this week, Burger King began bragging about its newly improved burger in advertising, saying that "size matters. That's why the Big King just got bigger. Now with a quarter pound of beef" vs. McDonald's 3.2 ounces in the Big Mac, "freshly fire grilled."Continue reading...

Charitable Trusts: gifts that provide income
For more information or to make a donation to the Buffalo Hospital Foundation
A donor may choose to make an irrevocable gift to Buffalo Hospital Foundation while continuing to receive or creating an income from the gift. This can provide the donor with a supplemental retirement fund, an enhanced source of income or simply a means to make a more significant gift while retaining current benefit from the asset behind the gift. Funding the gift with appreciated assets, the donor can make a substantial gift while retaining current benefit from the asset behind the gift.
Funding the gift with appreciated assets, the donor can make a substantial gift to us, avoid capital gains taxes on the sale of the asset and very likely increase the income produced by the asset. At the same time, the donor receives a charitable income tax deduction based on the donor's age, the percentage return and the current market value of the asset. There are several different instruments which are used to create these income-producing gifts. Each has its appropriate and special applications.
Life-income-gift tax benefits are generous and are based on the projected value of the property which will ultimately be transferred to the Foundation. Capital gains taxes on appreciated property used to make the life-income gift are either completely avoided or deferred.
Types of charitable trusts
Charitable Remainder Trusts
The trust may be funded with cash or other property. Appreciated property, including securities and real estate which you have owned for over a year, is an excellent source of funding. Capital gains taxes are not paid by the donor at the time the property is transferred to the trust or when the trust later sells the property to diversify the assets. With the right planning, a life insurance policy can replenish the funds passed to us so heirs receive the equivalent amount outside the estate. In this way, Buffalo Hospital Foundation receives a substantial gift, and heirs can receive the same amount as us free of estate taxes. The potential monetary benefits to you are a higher income and substantial tax savings.
Charitable Remainder Annuity Trust (Fixed Income)
Charitable Remainder Unitrust (Variable Income)
Net Income Unitrust
A trust of this type is ordinarily used when the charitable remainder trust is to be funded with unimproved real estate or another type of asset that produces relatively little or no income.
Another use for this trust is in retirement planning. Trust assets are invested voluntarily by the trustee in low-yield, high-growth assets during working years, then at retirement the gains are taken within the trust and the principal amount is reinvested to high-yield assets to fund retirement needs.
Flip Unitrusts
Charitable Lead Trusts – Providing an Inheritance and a Gift to Us
A donor may choose to make an irrevocable gift through with their assets to Buffalo Hospital through the Foundation, while providing an inheritance to children. A charitable lead trust is a gift of income to us, and is the mirror image of a charitable remainder trust. The initial or "lead" interest is for the benefit of Buffalo Hospital.
You transfer the assets to a lead trust, which distributes income to the Foundation for a term of years. At the end of the term, the trust distributes the assets, usually to children or grandchildren. Income received by the Foundation from the trust is used for the purposes you specify. The lead trust is generally a lifetime gift; however, you can establish a testamentary lead trust (at death) that would provide similar benefits to your estate, as you would enjoy during your lifetime.
This trust is a specialized estate planning tool. By establishing a charitable lead trust, you are in effect, "lending" the assets to the Foundation for the term of the trust. It is especially valuable if you have substantial estate and gift tax liabilities because it allows you to achieve several goals through one gift:
Of all the charitable gift options available to donors, this trust is among the most complex and can be a very powerful tool in gift and estate tax planning. There are many issues to consider – both legal and personal – when considering the establishment of a charitable lead trust. In the end, you may find that such a trust represents one of the best ways to help Buffalo Hospital while planning a deferred transfer of assets to children.

What exactly is an
? Why was it invented? I've tried to go through some Sun tutorials but I wasn't convinced. I have used JSP/Servlets and it seems that it can do the same job (corrections very welcome), along with
. This is the only area of
that leaves me bewildered. Is it some way of encapsulating all the business logic into a class? Don't we do that anyway (e.g. ShoppingCart.java for an ecommerce application)? Any simple guides on this?

Here is the way I understood EJBs.
1. Type of container : EJBs require ejb container and
require web server to run.
2. Type of ejb Beans: In ejb you can separate business logic by using session beans. Entity Beans provide for database mapping. You don't need to use database specific sql if using CMP but need to get acquinted with ejb-ql. MDB i.e. Message driven Beans provide for asynchronous messaging. This feature is not available in servlets.
3. All the ejb beans provide for transactional management either thru CMT(Container managed Transactions) or BMT (Bean Managed Transactions.) The Transaction scope can be extended to subsequent beans calls. I don't know how this transaction management is done in
Naming & Directory service- which provides for directory service where all different resources like printer,database,ejbs can be referred by unique ID. Hence providing for location transparency.
Ejbs and servlets both can be invoked remotely. Shopping cart example can be implemented by both using
and struts. I used servlets long time back so not sure how transaction management is done in servlets. I think the diff. between servlets and ejb lies in location transparency and transaction management.

Thanks Damanjit.
I went through the
Sun Tutorial (Lesson 1 and 2)
with a fine tooth comb and I am still not convinced. This is why:
The example shown is a simple web application which calculates a bonus. A simple client sends the social security number and multiplier via a HTTP Browser. This is made with both Servlets and EJBs, and I compared both.
Lesson 1
- Servlets
Lesson 2
- Same as Lesson 1 but with EJBs.
Lesson 1
The "business logic" in the servlet is a simple 2-line method "calculateBonus". This is very simple to understand and in my opinion, to maintain.
On compile, you only have one class:
No problem, everything works, the code is simple to read and you can continue to add more business logic as you need to.
Lesson 2
Suddenly, with the EJB variant, all hell breaks loose. You must create SIX different classes. This implements that, an interface for this, a context for that and so on. Remember, the
business logic method is 2 lines in the servlet and we finished with one simple class
On compile with EJB, you get:
So all in all, I know which "method" I would choose. EJB just seems to add an unneccessary tier of more classes and interfaces for very little return. Whats wrong with creating a simple BonusCalculator.java class with "calculate()"? The servlet can then create an instance of this object and invoke the method when it has all the data it needs. Clean simple code that is easy to understand. The business logic is moved outside the servlet, which is what EJBs try to accomplish right?
Now someone convince me that I am wrong.

You are not wrong to choose servlet for writing a simple task. Here is a link that compares both servlets and EJB. Though its quite old.

If you are just going to develop an application for bonus calculation then servlets would be more appropriate. But EJB's are really useful large distributed applications which requires features transactions, security etc.
Primary goal of EJB is to factor out common services needed by all distributed applications and let EJB container to support them. So that container vendors (who are experts in these services) can provide these services and application developer can concentrate on his own business logic.
Here are few advantages of EJB..
Container takes care of trasaction management (Have you heard of ACID properties that are needed for distributed databases..?)
Container takes care of security.. you easily implement entitlement ie specify which user Role can access which resource..
Provides database transparency.. i.e you can easily port your app. from database to another database..also you can easily handle table name or column name change without modifying your code.. (all just by changing config files) . But you should use CMP to get full advantages of this (Think about implications of porting to different database if you use
within servlets)
Supports BUILD ONCE AND DEPLOY ANYWHERE (one step further to build once and run anywhere principle of JAVA)..so once the application is build you can deploy it in or port it to any container..
Everything is specified declaratively using xml (or any kind of) config files.. you can easily change the behaviour at run-time.
Container can support many optimizations like managing database connection pools..supporting pooling for your stateless session beans etc..
It also supports more advanced features like JMS, JCA (to integrate with any legacy system) , etc..
and more...

School board adopts budget
Date: September 18, 2013
by: Josh Siegel | Staff Writer
The Manatee County School Board unanimously adopted a $568.3 million budget Tuesday night.
Robert Gause did not participate in the 4-0 vote, due to a commitment out of the state.
Highlights of the budget include:
- Money allocated to fund 85 new teachers required by roughly 950 extra students that enrolled in the school district this year.
- Through a savings plan, the district budgeted $10.3 million to build up reserves to the state-mandated 3%. It would be the first time in four years the district meets the state figure.
- A tax rate decrease, from 7.589 to 7.572 mills. Rising home values mean property owners will still pay more than in the past.
- A repayment of 33% internal account money the district borrowed from individual schools at the end of last school year to boost the general fund. The district vows to repay all the money in three years.
- Pay raises for teachers and members of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees
Superintendent Rick Mills said the budget process, his first, was challenging because the district had to create a line-item budget from scratch.
Last year's budget, which was incomplete and inaccurate, contributing to a multi-million dollar budget deficit, was unreliable.
"The budget approved by the school board is a realistic and executable budget that will help the Manatee County School District move forward succesfully," Mills said. "It is now time to turn our attention to what matters most, and that is supporting our schools and teachers in raising the achievement levels of more than 46,000 students."

You are invited to be part of the National Watershed Coalition's (NWC) 14th National Watershed Conference. The conference will address both current and future water resource issues related to conservation, management, water quality and flood protection on a watershed scale.
Background: As always the program committee is soliciting abstract of presentations that address USDA Watershed Program specific concerns. 2014 has been a remarkable year for USDA Watershed Program milestones. The largest infusion of program funding since 1993 and the expansion of opportunities through the new Regional Conservation Partnership Program effort have created many new watershed opportunities.
The NWC 2015 program will also highlight opportunities for combining resources from the portfolio of complimentary programs such as the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service's Environmental Quality Incentives Program, Chesapeake Bay Initiative, Mississippi River Basin Initiative, Regional Conservation Partnership Program or EPA's 319 efforts to meet watershed management goals. The goal of the conference program committee is to provide a blend of presentations that address efforts to create safe, productive as well as healthy watersheds using a wide variety of resources.
The 14th National Watershed Conference program committee will give special consideration to abstracts that address several emphasis areas:
➢ Expanding Watershed Services and the Regional Conservation Partnership Program
➢ Achieving water quality and quantity management strategies for the future through expanded partnerships
➢ Utilizing Watershed Program benefits to mitigate the impacts of changing climate
➢ Taking program opportunity and O&M performance to the next level
➢ Design and finance alternatives for aging USDA Watershed Program infrastructure
All accepted papers will be eligible for publication in the conference proceedings. Abstracts should be a 400 word or less description of your presentation. Electronic copies must be submitted in Microsoft Word format. Include your name, complete mailing address, telephone number, fax number, and e-mail address with your abstract and e-mail to: Dan A. Sebert, Ph.D. at [email protected] Abstract deadline is January 16, 2015.
Abstracts will not be returned. Notification of accepted abstracts will start in February 2015. If your abstract is accepted, your full paper is due April 13, 2015. Maximum length of your final manuscripts is 6,000 words, about 9 pages. Questions concerning presentation categories and potential topics of interest may be directed to [email protected] Presenters are responsible for providing their own conference travel, registration and other related expenses.

Over $1 Million in Flood Damages Prevented in Southeast Nebraska during wet summer.
LINCOLN, September 17, 2014 – Most Nebraskans would agree, it's been a cooler and wetter summer than usual. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, this was the wettest August for the contiguous U.S. since 1977, and Nebraska has had one of its 10 wettest summers on record.
Residents in the Oak-Middle and North Oak Creek watersheds - which includes Butler, Lancaster, Saunders, and Seward counties - recently experienced first-hand the effects of this wetter-than-usual summer. During the last week of August and first week of September, some portions of these watersheds experienced over a foot of rain.
Although there were people affected by flood damages, flooding could have been much worse if not for the watershed control structures built throughout the watersheds, according to the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS).
NRCS State Conservationist Craig Derickson said, "Over 50 years ago, NRCS worked with local landowners to construct watershed structures to help reduce flooding damages. Those structures are still doing their job today."
NRCS, with assistance from the Lower Platte South Natural Resources District, has constructed many flood control structures in Butler, Lancaster, Saunders, and Seward counties through the Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act. These funds authorized NRCS to provide assistance with the planning and installation of flood control structures like small dams and grade stabilization structures, and in applying conservation practices like no-till, terraces and waterways.
The Lower Platte South NRD sponsored the projects and purchased the land rights in order to build the flood control structures. NRCS provided engineering expertise and over $4 million to construct the 31 flood control structures throughout the watersheds.
Flood control structures may easily go unnoticed across the landscape. But after a heavy rain event, like what was recently experienced in southeast Nebraska, these structures spring in to action. They capture rushing flood water and hold the water back allowing it to be slowly released downstream. Slowing the water down and allowing it to be gradually released reduces damage to roads, bridges, fences, cropland and other property.
According to NRCS Hydraulic Engineer Arlis Plummer, the existing flood control structures in Butler, Lancaster, Saunders, and Seward counties helped prevent over $1 million in flood damages from the recent storms.
"With big rain events we really see the benefit of flood control structures. They work together with conservation practices to prevent damage to infrastructure. When things like roads and bridges are spared from damages, then we're talking about a lot of dollars saved," Plummer said.
Larry Stuchlik is a long-time resident of the North Oak Creek watershed. He can remember what the watershed was like before the structures were built.
"In 1963 they had a 14 inch rain up by Brainard. The water was flowing through the valley there in a river over a mile and a half wide. I remember there being fatalities in Valparaiso," Stuchlik said.
Stuchlik now says that "those watershed structures really save us." After this last heavy rain – over 9 inches in a two-day period – the watershed structure on his property captured the water behind the structure and then let the water flow out slowly through a pipe.
"The creek on our property flowed a long time, but we didn't have any damages. The watershed structure worked like it was supposed to," Stuchlik said.
With nearly 900 watershed dams constructed statewide, the Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act has benefited over 1.6 million acres in Nebraska. Benefits include significant savings in soil erosion, water conservation, road and bridge damage reduction, wetland/upland wildlife habitat creation and most importantly, saved lives and property. The total benefits to Nebraska exceed $37 million each year, according to NRCS.

Bush Telegraph celebrates NAIDOC week on a journey to Australia's interior.
This [series episode segment] has
An Indigenous company has joined forces with a solar power company to build renewable energy systems in remote Western Australia.
Today in our Carbon Challenge we find out how carbon projects are providing opportunity for indigenous people to derive an income through caring for their land.
The familiar weather calendar has the 12 months of the year evenly divided up into four seasons.
What taken as a given for dinner plates in most parts of Australia, a good cut of meat, fresh veg and healthy fruit, is a tall order in remote parts of Australia. And it is an order that managers of community stores in indigenous land find pretty hard to fill.
