On Thursday July 18, 2013, after reaching an agreement with the state, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a corrective action plan requiring the state to update and improve its clean water program. After considering a petition filed by the Conservation Law Foundation (CLF) in 2008, EPA found that the State of Vermont�s clean water program needed to be improved in several ways including program requirements relating to public transparency, documentation of permitting decisions, enforcement penalty policy, regulation of animal feedlots, and nutrient pollution from municipal sewage treatment plants.
Following efforts by Vermont�s Agency of Natural Resources to address these concerns, EPA has now found that the State of Vermont�s program, once the plan has been implemented, will substantially comply with the requirements of federal water quality law. EPA did determine that a change is needed to a state law associated with funding of phosphorus removal from wastewater treatment plant effluent but also found that the state can issue permits consistent with the federal Clean Water Act in the interim until that law is revised.
�We are pleased with this outcome,� stated Agency of Natural Resources (ANR) Secretary Deb Markowitz. �The EPA�s plan reflects the fact that the State of Vermont has made significant efforts to ensure that our implementation of the Clean Water Act meets the letter and purpose of the law. Our state and federal governments share the goal of ensuring that Vermont�s waters are protected and restored. Vermont�s lakes, ponds, rivers and streams are fundamental to our quality of life and future prosperity.�
Most of the requirements of the plan have already been implemented by the Agency of Natural Resources including the following:
� Providing an opportunity for the public to review and comment on enforcement actions related to violations of water quality law;
� Conforming the state�s policy relating to the use of penalty payments to EPA�s requirements;
� Updating the state�s system for reporting violations of federal water quality law;
� Ensuring that animal feedlot operations are permitted in a manner that accords with the federal Clean Water Act and that water pollution from those feedlots is stopped and prevented;
� Implementing a requirement of the Clean Water Act to prevent the degradation of existing high quality waters;
� Documenting the analyses used by the Agency to develop permit limits for the discharge of pollutants into Vermont�s waters; and
� Limiting the amount of nutrients discharged by municipal wastewater treatment plants in a manner that conforms to the federal Clean Water Act.
�We appreciate the hard work and good faith demonstrated by EPA and CLF in the resolution of this matter without the need to go to court,� commented Justin Johnson, ANR Deputy Secretary. �As a result of the work of these parties, we were able to achieve a balanced result that will allow the state to continue to implement the Clean Water Act in a manner that protects state waters and is transparent to the public without increasing the burden of the regulatory process on our farms, businesses, towns and cities.�

About us…
We meet mostly in London, sometimes further afield. We draw and paint together, draw each other, visit museums and galleries, and run workshops. All abilities are welcome. Some of us have bought art from each other we can give you feedback on any art purchases you are considering.
I thought shoal would be a good word to use for an art group after reading a line about fish in their school in a translation of Ingeborg Bachmann's poem An die Sonne. Fish in a school swim in the same direction but in a shoal they swim somewhat independently, communicating and staying in a group though. So in our meetups you can work somewhat independently if you wish.
I heed the feedback I get and understand that many people like to know that a meetup will repeat along similar lines so that they can try it out and return to it if it suits them. Others enjoy change, so I try to introduce a couple of new ideas each time without disrupting the format and the rythm of activity too much.
To end with, here are some more uses of the word shoal which I liked:-
C. Thirlwall Hist. Greece VI. l. 198 "A shoal of boats now came off from the harbours filled with people." (Oxford English Dictionary)
"There's only here and now and light; neither death, nor darkness, exists. We're all already on the sea shore. I'm one of those who'll be hauling in the nets when a shoal of immorality swims by" (Arseny Tarkovsky, translated by Virginia Rounding)
Note 1 : The quote in the Meetup Group headline is from :
Cézanne/Pissarro, Johns/Rauschenberg : comparative studies on intersubjectivity in modern art / Joachim Pissarro. Cambridge University Press
5,428 Gentle Walkers
3,154 Philosophers

How big of a problem was illegal drug use with the big bands from the '70's and 80's?
Like poison, aerosmith, boston, black sabbath, ac/dc, etc all the good ones
2 Comments Add yours
They were all on drugs. Lots of drugs. Many of them were on the verge of death at some point due to their abuse.
I would hesitate to call Poison, Aerosmith, Boston or AC/DC good bands.
No problem at all. They had the money, they had access, nobody really cared how crappy they played.

Calling It Quits
After Trying to Save Their Faltering Marriage, Hilary Swank and Chad Lowe Finally Decide on Divorce
It was a sobering decision for Lowe, 38, and Swank, 31, who did almost the unthinkable in Hollywood—they tried to heal their relationship. After announcing their separation last winter, the pair, who met at a Hollywood party in '92, went to counseling and made a point of going out as a couple. Last February they were spotted lunching at Malibu's Tra di Noi restaurant, and in March got cozy on a JFK-LAX flight. A friend of the pair says that Swank's busy acting career wasn't a factor in the breakup (in recent years Lowe has focused on directing). "They both sincerely tried to make this work," says the source, "but the simple truth is that they grew apart." For now, they will continue running their production company, Accomplice Films, and have not said how they will divvy up their pets (including two dogs and two birds) or homes in New York City and Los Angeles. "They'll always love each other," says the friend. "They just won't be married."

How to Prioritize (And Encourage My Heart Link Up)
Consider Reading Proverbs 6:1-10 for a personal devotion today.
Managing every area of our life is a lot. Doing it the way God desires is hard. But that's okay because God desires that we're diligent workers. Because He desires us to be diligent we can trust that he will help us to be diligent as well. There will be seasons in your life where you will always be doing.
I LOVE writing and I LOVE blogging. So for me even though I'm technically working, it's something I love and enjoy. Don't let blogging consume your personal down-time unless you LOVE it. God wants us to be diligent, but everyone needs a break.
Intentionally planning our days and redeeming our time is imperative. We've been studying our priorities this week in preparation for writing a schedule, one that can be flexible but provide guidance and structure for our days.
For me a rigid hour by hour schedule does not work in our home. Babies get hungry, toddlers want snacks, kids need to go to the bathroom and need mom to read to them, all at times that don't neatly fit within a perfect schedule. What has worked for me however are prioritized lists. I generally keep a list of Daily, weekly, monthly, and long term goals. I will occasionally break down my goals into morning, afternoon, and evening sections.
Either way today is the day to pray about and write your schedule or daily to do list. What are your top priorities?
Link up below any encouraging posts, and visit some other blogs while your at it. Kind comments always encourage the heart, and new subscribers make bloggers ecstatic : )
I'll also be doing something new, I'll be sharing some linked up posts on my Facebook page so more can be blessed.
Will you learn along with me? Let's encourage one another.
I'd love for you to sign up for e-mail updates or follow me on Facebook.

I like your approach. Not everyone is a schedule person. Since I'm an empty-nester and my husband is semi-retired and my "work" is blogging, my situation is unique and constantly a challenge for me to prioritize correctly but for different reasons than young moms have. Thanks for linking to B&BB..praying that your week is well-prioritized! : )

we've got signatures, help us get to 1,000 by July 10, 2014
We know that hoarders, dog fighting rings, and puppy mills just move to another location if caught and unfit people petition to adopt pets. A registery would allow rescue groups, law enforcement, and other animal welfare agencies to see potential abusers' past history. These people could be denied access to animals based on the information. It's time we became serious about this problem.

Dr. Donda C. West, a resident of Playa Del Rey, California, was transitioned to her eternal reward on Saturday, November 10, 2007, at the age of 58. 'Big Girl', as she was affectionately called by her father, was the 4th child born to Portwood and Lucille E. Williams on July 12, 1949. Her early education was at Culbertson and Dunbar Elementary Schools, F.D. Moon Jr. High School, and Douglass High School where she graduated in 1967. She joined 5th Street Baptist Church at age five. In. 1958, under the leadership of NAACP Youth Council Leader and author Clara Luper, she, along with her brother, Portwood Jr. and others, participated in the first national sit-in demonstration to acquire public accommodations for people of color. Her father drove the first car. Donda earned a Bachelor's degree in English at Virginia Union University, Richmond, Virginia. She further received a Master's degree at Atlanta University, Atlanta, Georgia, and a Doctorate degree in English Education at Auburn University, Auburn, Alabama. Other Study: University of Oklahoma, Norman, Oklahoma; New Delhi University, Madras, India; Keith Cunningham's Business for Entrepreneurs, Austin, Texas; Russian Studies at Iowa State University. Donda married Ray West, then an aerial photo journalist for the Atlanta Journal Newspaper. To this union, one son, Kanye, was born. Dr. West began her teaching career at Morris Brown College in Atlanta in the early 70's as an English instructor and eventually became chairperson of the English Department. In 1980, she and 3 year-old Kanye moved to Chicago where she accepted employment at Chicago State University (CSU).
