JEAN MORISSON - NAUGHTY feat NILE RODGERS
The story begins with a song called "Naughty feat Nile Rodgers," that depicts a time and place where the seduction was everything and the night was hers.
As the story goes:
"It was a sticky summer night, and the club was dripping hot with sweat. Jean got the message that 'L' was on her way. Burning with anticipation, Jean knew that if 'L' abided by her request and walked through the door wearing a short skirt as promised, 'L' was hers for the taking... anyway she wanted.
'L' arrived looking like a caramel exotic beauty, something out of a Victoria's Secret catalog, with eyes like fire and a smile like sex. Everybody wanted her, but she wanted Jean and knowing Jean's reputation, 'L' made it a point to be the one she took into seclusion. At the witching hour in the veil of darkness, their bodies set the parking lot and backseat into flames and the story in motion forever."
"Naughty" was born from a collaboration between Jean and her long time songwriting partner / producer Diego Paul Sanchez upon deciding that an Edge-Pop song with Nile Rodgers guitars and a nice slice of funk would be the perfect way to tell this story.
"Naughty feat Nile Rodgers" was mixed by Jason Goldstein at the legendary Power Station Studios (now called Avatar), mastered by Chris Gehringer at Sterling Sound and performed by Jean and her all-live band, MorissonPoe, that ingeniously blends rhythm sections with retro, infectious synth textures. Be prepared - it's all happening.
Somewhere in and out of the blurred lines of erotic, edgy and funk lives the sultry world of Jean Morisson.
With a thunderous voice, poetically explosive lyrics and a sizzling, virtuoso band, Jean Morisson promises to set radio and stages across the world on fire with her incendiary blend of danceable Pop-Funk with rocked-out Urban flare.

Gellerman: In Bolivia, the people spoke and the government listened. For three months, a thousand people marched across the Andes Mountains, closing roads, enduring police crackdown and arrest. They were protesting the government's plan to build a highway through indigenous lands and Amazon forest. Bolivian President Evo Morales gave in to the protesters and scrapped the project. But while demonstrators may have won this round, the fight over how to develop Bolivia's economy and protect its environmental future continues. Mary Stucky reports.

Biokleen is a formulator and manufacturer of natural, non-toxic cleaning products. Founded in a Portland, OR garage, in 1989, Biokleen remains family owned and operated to this day, producing General Household, Kitchen, Laundry, Pet Mess, and Professional cleaners in our on-site Vancouver, WA facility. As part of our mission to reduce waste and preserve our planet, Biokleen offsets 100 percent of the electricity used in our factory and offices through locally purchased wind power renewable energy credits. The pioneer of ultra-concentrated formulas, we likewise offset 100 percent of our water usage by restoring 6,778,000 gallons of water annually to critically dewatered streams along Oregon's central Deschutes River.
Since making the switch to green power, in March 2012, Biokleen has been featured in Clark Public Utilities' campaign to educate local citizens and businesses about its sustainable energy programs and practices. The ads helped us to inform our most important consumers, our own community, about our product line and guiding principles. We extended that work to all longstanding and potential customers by including our offsets in our labels, marketing materials, and social media outreach.
"Biokleen is proud to produce green products using green manufacturing principles. Our company was upheld by our local utilities company, throughout 2012, in TV, radio, and movie theater ads regarding our energy offsets, and including footage of our plant. By adding this key sustainability measure, Biokleen brought our mission full circle to shine from the inside out." - Cindy Rimer, VP of Sales & Marketing/Director

[SWITCHED-ON BACH] Today's classical music performances often feel as archaic as the music itself. Even when the music is timeless, the way it's presented is frequently outdated and under-rehearsed. Enter the Amplified Repertory Chamber Orchestra of Portland, spearheaded by Classical Revolution PDX, Cascadia Composers and Portland Columbia Symphony stalwart violinist Mike Hsu. The group aims to learn from rock and pop music and bring classical performance into the 21st century, with performances in informal venues allowing dancing and drinking and where one mustn't worry about applauding at the "wrong" moment. Along with Portland Cello Project cellist Skip vonKuske and other musicians from Portland and Seattle, ARCO-PDX performs energetic music by C.P.E. Bach (Sebastian's innovative son), vonKuske and Hsu, the latter of which is influenced by '80s dance music. It's classical music with a rock attitude.

Center for Conservation Science & Strategy
What is the Center?
The Conservancy in Colorado created the Center for Conservation Science and Strategy to develop creative, collaborative and science-based solutions to Colorado's most pressing conservation challenges affecting people and nature. The Center provides robust science and policy analysis to proactively create the products, information and planning methodologies needed to address these challenges.
Featured Project
In collaboration with the Conservancy's China Program, the Center's Megan Kram authored a new book, Protecting China's Biodiversity – A Guide to Land Use, Land Tenure, and Land Protection Tools. This book is the first of its kind, providing a comprehensive yet digestible overview of land use, land tenure and land protection opportunities in China. It is a reference guide for anyone with an interest in Chinese land issues and covers the following topics:
- The "lay of the land" – an orientation to Chinese biodiversity values and land use practices.
- Land tenure system – a description of China's land tenure system.
- Land protection in practice – a description and analysis of land conservation tools and case studies.
We hope our research sparks more land protection action in China and beyond. Download the book now or read the executive summary.
Our Staff
The Center staff includes extensive conservation science and policy expertise:
- Megan Kram
- Paige Lewis
- Betsy Neely
- Chris Pague
- Doug Robotham
- John Sanderson
- Terri Schulz
- Heidi Sherk
- Meg White
Our Work
The Center brings together stakeholders, experts and the best information to address these important issues:
Measuring Conservation Success—How successful are our conservation efforts in Colorado; where do we need to be focusing more of our efforts? In collaboration with the Colorado Natural Heritage Program, we are developing a Measures of Conservation Success assessment that shows which species and ecosystems need more protection.
Forests—How can we catalyze a massive increase in forest restoration to protect communities and restore the health of our forests? The Front Range Roundtable catalyzes efforts to reduce fire risk and improve forest health.
Water—How can we ensure that the needs of nature are considered in future decision-making about water supply? Center staff is working with a broad group of water interests to pilot the Watershed Flow Evaluation Tool to assess how flow management can protect or put species and ecosystems at risk.
Energy— How can we reduce the footprint of oil and gas and renewable energy development? Colorado is a key location for energy development—the Conservancy's Development by Design approach helps to guide decisions that avoid, minimize and mitigate environmental damage.
Climate—The Conservancy, in collaboration with the Gunnison Climate Working Group, has completed a vulnerability assessment to identify which species and ecosystems of the Upper Gunnison Basin will be affected by projected changes and why. The Group is piloting an on-the-ground climate adaptation project to enhance the resilience of riparian habitats in sagebrush shrublands. This is a project of the Southwest Climate Change Initiative, which provides information and tools to conservation practitioners for climate adaptation in vulnerable landscapes.

The Magazine
George Will at Bat
Wrigley Field and the national pastime.
May 26, 2014, Vol. 19, No. 35 • By ANDREW FERGUSON
You can tell George Will is a serious baseball fan because—I wish I could find another way to put this—he is serious about baseball. The statement isn't (quite!) as fatuous as it sounds. Lots of people who profess their love of baseball are mere romantics and mythologists. They'll well up at the thought of the greatness of the game and how its history interweaves with the greatness of America, and they gravely tug their chins at baseball's qualities of timelessness (there's no game clock) and infinitude (in theory, the mythologist will tell you, the foul lines extend into infinity).
The 100th anniversary of Wrigley Field (April 23, 2014)
warren wimmer / newscom
Serious seriousness like Will's isn't dour or grim. As a writer, George Will has a deep appreciation for absurdity generally, and for the many comic absurdities of baseball in particular, and he is a practiced griot of the game's colorful characters and history. But where the romantic is content to be high-minded, abstract, and goopy, Will is hardheaded, practical, and precise. The hardheadedness and precision turned Men at Work, his detailed 1990 study of how fielders, managers, and hitters do their very difficult jobs, into one of the half-dozen essential books for anyone who wants to understand the game—not the mythology of the game, not the Game as a Key to the American Character. Just the game.
Will's new baseball book is an informal history of Chicago's Wrigley Field, published on the 100th anniversary of its opening. Nothing taps the waterworks of a baseball romantic like Wrigley Field. It is a monument to baseball quaintness, a museum of the game as it once was. The ivy clinging to the outfield walls is just for starters. In place of the vast, dizzying HD screen looming over the modern ball field, fans at Wrigley gaze up, as their grandfathers did, at a hand-operated scoreboard just above the center field bleachers. A lilting, calliope-like organ pumps happily away in place of the punishing soundtrack of bad music that every other ballpark uses to rouse the tone-deaf fans from their seats.
Wrigley's charm is undeniable, but a little puzzling. Until 20 years ago, Wrigley Field wasn't even the most evocative baseball park in Chicago. Comiskey Park, where the White Sox played for more than 75 years, had witnessed more history—when it was torn down in 1990, it stood as the last ballpark Cy Young had pitched in—and it offered just as much antique atmosphere. The discomforts endured by the fans (suspicious food, overtaxed bathrooms, cramped concourses, hip-pinching seats) rivaled Wrigley's. You could say the same about several old baseball piles that survived into the 21st century, from Tiger Stadium to Yankee Stadium.
Wrigley's reputation for singularity arose from other factors, only one of them perverse. Even as the neighborhoods around baseball's first-generation urban parks (including Comiskey) deteriorated during the 1950s and '60s, the neighborhood surrounding Wrigley stayed relatively safe and livable. The elevated train dropped off fans only two blocks away, the streets to and from the park were lined with handsome old brownstones, and for blocks around, a welcoming, leafy ambience was maintained if you were quick enough to dodge the vomiting Cubs fans who spilled from the doorways of local saloons.
As Will points out, the abiding neighborhood was a mixed blessing for Chicago baseball, for it contributed to the second factor in the sentimentalist swoon. For decades, neighbors resisted management's plans to put lights in the park, and even now, 25 years since illumination, their touchiness restricts the number of night games played there. The same neighborhood pressure limits the advertising in and around Wrigley, the stadium's seating capacity, and the space available for private parking. All of this severely depresses the amount of money an owner can make and, crucially, reinvest in the team to build a winner. The result has been seven decades of nearly unbroken failure on the field. And it is this failure that the romantics truly love.
"Before the Cubs moved into Wrigley," Will writes, "they were what the New York Yankees were to become: a byword for excellence." Over one five-year span, ending in 1910, the Cubs logged what remains the winningest percentage in the history of baseball. The excellence was not to last. The Cubs moved into Wrigley Field, then known as Weeghman Park, in 1916, and the long decline commenced.

Last week, while my parent's were in town, we decided to sneak away to Santa Fe for a couple days. If you ever have the chance to visit Santa Fe, NM take advantage of it, you will not be disappointed.
Whenever we have visitors, we try to take them to Santa Fe for a couple of days to experience the shopping, art galleries and dining.
We had a lovely couple days with my parent's meandering through the shops and outdoor vendors on the plaza. Here are a few scenes from downtown Santa Fe…
You will find outdoor vendors selling handwoven baskets, handmade rugs, turquoise jewelry galore and the most beautiful adobe buildings.
The oldest house in America is still standing in downtown Santa Fe (I wish I had my camera when we found it), built in 1646. The photo below is from Travelpod. You can read more about the oldest house here.

Have you ever been to Santa Fe?
Happy Weekend!
To stay in Santa Fe, NM I recommend:
Last week, we had the most incredible dinner at Rio Chama Steakhouse. I highly recommend it for the food and atmosphere.

To kick-off the series, Sara Harris interviews the authors of Smogtown: The lung-burning history of pollution in Los Angeles… Chip Jacobs and William Kelly.
Prop L
For the first time in its nearly 140 year history, the L.A. Central library stopped offering seven-day-a week hours due to sever city budget cuts. The passage of ballot measure L last week brings back services and hours. Martín Gómez, the city librarian, explains what the priorities are for a library system that can afford to focus on access for the information age.

Ventura's proposed budget tries to replenish savings
With Ventura poised to finish the fiscal year in the black, the city's proposed 2013-14 budget aims to start repaying the savings that helped carry it through several revenue-strapped years.
The proposed budget for the next fiscal year, which will start July 1, eliminates the equivalent of 10½ positions and holds fire and police spending at current limits. It returns money to three accounts that had been shaved during the lean times: information technology, public liability and workers' compensation.
Ventura City Manager Mark Watkins called the $89.5 million budget he presented to the City Council on Monday night "transitional."
"We're balanced again, and we're starting to turn the corner," Watkins said. "We need to find ways to backfill" the reserve fund.
Starting in 2008-09, the city dipped into its reserve fund to make up steep drops in revenue caused by the recession, Watkins wrote in his report to the council. That trend continued into this fiscal year, for a total of $10 million over five years, Watkins said.
"It made sense to borrow at one time," he said. "But those times have passed."
With 63 percent, or $56 million, of the budget tied up in salaries and benefits, Watkins said staffing levels would have to shrink.
In addition to the position of assistant city manager, Watkins' proposal cuts two positions from community development; two from public works; three from parks, recreation and community partnerships; one finance position; and the equivalent of 1½ positions from human resources.
Councilwoman Cheryl Heitmann asked why a finance position was being targeted in light of earlier budget discussions. Watkins' predecessor, interim City Manager Johnny Johnston, had suggested beefing up finance and IT.
Watkins said the positions he recommended for elimination weren't necessarily the least important.
"Quite frankly, some of the positions were targeted because they were vacant," he said.
Councilwoman Christy Weir said it was no surprise positions would be cut.
"We always knew as PERS went up, we'd have layoffs. So that's what we're seeing here," Weir said.
The IT department, an internal service fund, will get a one-time infusion of $600,000, according to the budget. Additionally, it will start collecting $600,000 more across all 10 departments, said Chief Financial Officer Jay Panzica.
IT bills each department for costs to run and maintain systems that include hardware, bandwidth and software.
Part of the money will be used to hire one or two IT specialists, positions that have been vacant because the department has had no money, Panzica said.
The number of positions will depend on the cost of software and related components, he said. The city bought a new system several years ago but has failed to keep pace with all the related upgrades.
The budget calls for no new police officers. The 2012-13 budget added five officers at a cost of $800,000. The second phase, expected at the time to be implemented as part of the 2013-14 budget cycle, included hiring two more officers and a nonsworn crime scene investigator.
Police Chief Ken Corney said having fewer officers was unfortunate given the increase in property crimes and repeat offenders.
"The challenge is to reduce crime effectively, and to a large extent that's resource-driven," Corney said.
He expressed hope that next year's budget could include those three new positions.
Mayor Mike Tracy, the former police chief who supported the increases, said the city was not in a position to hire.
"Clearly the crime picture in Ventura warrants it, but I'm also realistic to know this isn't the time to do it," Tracy said.
The budget counts only on money that is definite, Watkins said.
For example, the city expects a boost in sales tax revenue with the opening this week of WinCo Foods off Telephone Road and the expected opening this year of a Wal-Mart on Victoria Avenue. The budget, however, excludes projected revenue from the stores.
The budget adds $200,000 back to the public liability fund and $100,000 to workers' compensation.
The budget does not fund everything, Watkins said, mentioning streets and other capital needs that must wait.
"The desires are greater than our resources right now," Watkins said. "You've only got so much ability to support all of the different things."

This case involved complicated property law issues and an allegation of bad faith against BLG's client, the City of Windsor. The plaintiff had purchased former Canadian Pacific Railway ("CPR") lands on the north and south sides of Riverside Drive. The two parcels were connected by land beneath a bridge on Riverside, but it was unclear who owned the bridge or the land beneath it. The lands to the north of Riverside ran along the Detroit River. The City had long intended to acquire those lands for inclusion in a riverfront park, but the applicable land use policies also permitted development. The lands to the south were developable but were landlocked except for the land under the Riverside bridge.
The owner sought permission to develop the southern parcel, but negotiations with the City were unsuccessful. The City ultimately decided to expropriate the owner's northern parcel in order to protect its plans for a riverside park.
The owner commenced a civil suit, alleging bad faith on the part of the City. The owner also claimed that it had acquired the Riverside bridge and the land beneath it from CPR, such that its two parcels were contiguous. In support of this claim the owner asserted that Riverside Drive did not exist when CPR acquired the lands in 1888, and that CPR's lands would therefore have included the land beneath the bridge.
BLG acted for the City and presented evidence that Riverside Drive did exist in 1888, and that railways do not acquire title to municipal roads when train tracks cross those roads. In addition, BLG established that CPR was prohibited under the Railway Act from expropriating municipal rights of way, so it could not have acquired the bridges or the land beneath them in that fashion.
The court agreed and found that CPR built the bridges but the City owned both the bridges and the land beneath them. The court also found that CPR had agreed to maintain the bridges in perpetuity because its agreement with the City included no expiry date. Finally, the court rejected the owner's claims of bad faith with respect to the expropriation, finding instead that the City reasonably believed it had "no alternative" but to expropriate. The Court of Appeal affirmed the court's decision. The City of Windsor saved millions of dollars as a result of this success.
Stephen Waqué, Frank Sperduti and Sean Gosnell are partners at Borden Ladner Gervais LLP and members of BLG's EMER Group (Environmental, Municipal, Expropriation, and Regulatory Law). For more information on any of these professionals, please visit: www.blg.com.

Soon-to-be veterans training to be business owners
Programs train for life post-service
In his 25 years with the Navy, John Smith has traveled the world executing complex projects in war-torn countries.
During two tours in Afghanistan, Smith helped manage Seabees from Naval Base Ventura County as they built bases, helicopter landing pads, medical facilities and security towers.
Now as a master chief petty officer at Naval Base Ventura County, Smith is in charge of a special program that provides utility services to the Navy, Marine Corps and the Department of Defense in locations all over the world.
This summer, however, Smith plans to leave his military career and transition into a new role: entrepreneur. He hopes to parlay skills he learned in the field into a successful business venture.
"Most people think that being in the military ... you are just used to getting orders and getting all of the answers handed to you, when in fact it's the opposite," Smith, 43, said. "You have to think for yourself and use all of the valuable skills you've learned. Why work for someone else when I am already doing the things that I could be doing in my own business?"
The dream of launching a startup could become a reality as more programs become
available for the estimated 250,000 servicemen and women who transition out of the military each year. Among the services available is a national pilot program called Boots to Business, which is scheduled to launch at Naval Base Ventura County in September.
Rejoining civilian life
The push for Boots to Business and programs like it came after President Barack Obama signed the Veterans Opportunity to Work Act in November 2011.
Under the initiative, servicemen and women are now required to participate in transition programs that will help ease them into the civilian workforce. One program includes higher education, while another is geared for those interested in vocational/technical training. The third is the entrepreneurial track, taught in conjunction with officials at the Small Business Administration.
At Naval Base Ventura County, about 700 to 1,000 attend the transition course annually at the Fleet & Family Support Center, but those numbers are expected to increase now that the classes are mandatory, said transition coordinator Kristin Davy.
While the classes are offered at least twice a month, service members are encouraged to attend at least 12 months before leaving the military or 24 months before retirement, Davy said.
On a recent Wednesday, about 10 servicemen and women attended a two-hour introductory business workshop at the support center.
The workshop was led by Patrick Rodriguez, SBA Los Angeles development specialist, and Bill Goodnick, workshop chairman for the county nonprofit SCORE. Participants listened intently as Rodriguez outlined various loans and programs available to aspiring business owners, while Goodnick explained the basics steps and tools needed when venturing into the business world.
"One of the things you hear about entrepreneurs is they take risks ... but if you are going into business, you want to reduce those risks," Goodnick said. "The more you know and the more planning you do in your business, the better the probability of success. By the time you get through this whole process, you will have enough knowledge to consider if you want to even move forward with your business."
Petty Officer Angel Laracuente, who could be transitioning out of the military this summer, said he was interested in pursuing a future in real estate development.
"Eventually I want to own acres of land and build complexes," Laracuente, 40, said. "I want to get some information about loans and starting this as a business."
Economic challenge
For those leaving the military life, having a plan is crucial as they return to an economy still undergoing a slow recovery. According to recent numbers released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, unemployment rates for veterans in January increased slightly to 7.6 percent compared to 7 percent the previous month.
Although still below the January national unemployment rate of 7.9 percent, young veterans continue to have a difficult time securing employment.
The youngest post-9/11 veterans, those ages 20 to 24, saw an 8 percent increase in their unemployment rate from December to January, remaining the highest rate of all age groups at 31.4 percent, according to the BLS.
"It is a challenge to get some of them back into the labor force because there are fewer jobs and employment opportunities than there were during pre-recession," said Bruce Stenslie, president and CEO of Economic Development Collaborative, Ventura County. "On the positive side, these folks have some extraordinary training and skills that has marketability. They are self-reliant and confident, attributes that are well-suited in entrepreneurship. You definitely have to have nerves of steel."
While more programs are in the pipeline to help those interested in starting their own business, a study from Kansas City-based entrepreneurship nonprofit Kauffman Foundation found veteran-owned startups have been steadily declining over the past two decades.
According to the November 2012 study, veterans in 1996 represented 12.3 percent of all new entrepreneurs. In 2011, however, that number had dropped to just 6 percent.
While the decline could be attributed to the slight increase among nonveterans who became new entrepreneurs, the larger cause of the decrease stems from the larger share of veterans who are aging out of the workforce.
"We are experiencing a temporary reduction in entrepreneur activity in the vet population since a large portion of those living vets are from the Vietnam War era, and to some extent, the Korean War," said Jonathan Robinson, Kauffman Foundation entrepreneurs program manager. "This affects the recently transitioning population of vets because it diminishes their exposure to mentors and role models."
Boots to Business
To help fill that gap, a new program aims to not only connect young veterans with experienced businessmen and women but also to help guide them through the ins and outs of starting a business.
The entrepreneurship track available for transitioning service members also includes the national Boots to Business program. The pilot program started last year as a collaboration among the Department of Defense, the SBA and Syracuse University's institute for Veterans and Military Families.
In California, the program made its debut at the Marine Corps bases at Camp Pendleton and Twentynine Palms, where about 40 military members and spouses took advantage of free business workshops.
Participants have two days of classroom instruction on entrepreneurship. They are then asked to conduct their own market research and initiate a business plan to identify their strengths and challenges they might come across, said Doug Dare, SBA Santa Ana District spokesman.
The program wraps up with an in-depth, eight-week online course where participants formulate a business plan.
"It's a dramatic improvement over the old transition program and I am glad people are leaving the class with something in their hands that they can work on," Dare said. "In the military environment, you don't have much exposure to the business world so this program definitely builds those links from the military to the private sector."
When Nathanael Ligon first joined the military five years ago, he hoped to become a naval aviator. Now just four months before his last day in active duty, the 25-year old sergeant based out of Camp Pendleton instead plans to run his own business.
Ligon took part in the Boots to Business program, where he learned some of the basic tools every aspiring entrepreneur should have. Once he is officially honorably discharged from the Navy in June, Ligon plans to solidify a business plan for several ventures he is interested in, including technology development.
"The class was helpful because it emphasized the importance of being self-motivated and the different types of corporations that existed," Ligon said. "It was definitely informative and was helpful to have all of that in the class."
The Boots to Business program at Naval Base Ventura County is scheduled to begin in September and will also be open to veterans' spouses, Rodriguez said.
Smith said he is considering the program to help him develop a business plan for a company that would provide rental and installation of utilities equipment.
"When you are a military person, you have a lot of capabilities, but sometimes you just don't know what you don't know," Smith said. "I have the industry skills but not the commercial business skills, so this will give me that industry knowledge. Knowing that this is available is very inspiring."

Trends & Talkers: War on HomelessnessUPDATED 7:21 PM HST Jun 27, 2014
KITV 4 viewer's discuss Mayor Caldwell's declaration of "War on Homelessness"Video Transcript
Caldwell declared a War on Homelessness ... The city council is taking action. As we told you yesterday... The Council advanced FIVE bills -- preventing people from defecating, urinating, and lying on sidewalks -- islandwide. Three bills target the Waikiki, Chinatown and Downtown areas. TWO other bills make the bills apply island wide. Carol Maniaci It's really sad to see so many people in our islands have no place to sleep, shower or call home.

Aishwarya Dhanush to remake 3 in Hindi
The latest buzz is that Aishwarya Dhanush who is expecting the release of her maiden film 3, will be remaking the film in Hindi with Abhishek Bachchan in the lead. The Kolaveri Di song from this movie has already reached places making the headlines and attracting people.
Abhishek is no excuse that he immediately called Aishwarya to discuss the 3 story. Soon after her narration, Abhishek had just one condition and it is to include the Kolaveri di song in the Hindi version as well.
It is also said that Aishwarya Dhanush will begin working on this Hindi version soon after the release of 3. She is extremely happy over entering Bollywood so early in her career.Tags: 3, Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya Dhanush, Bollywood, Dhanush, Kollywood, Shruti Haasan, Tollywood, Why This Kolaveri Di

About Jo:
Started windsurfing when I was 11 years old on a Neilson holiday and have never looked back! Got into racing as a kid, loved it as I got to travel around every weekend visiting new places and always pushing my windsurfing to the next level.
I qualified as an instructor when I was 16 and worked for 2 years at Carsington water whilst I doing my A-levels, getting on the water as much as possible in the UK and abroad. I did my first season with Neilson in Lemnos when I was 18, went from there straight to Dahab, qualified as an Advanced plus instructor and got a job working for Dahab for Neilson over the winter. Learnt how to do some freestyle and generally windsurfed all day every day! I then went to Ortakent, Turkey and got back into a bit of slalom and was lucky enough to receive some outstanding support from Sam Ross (www.sam-ross.co.uk) , Neilson and Tushingham/Starboard to go and compete at the PWA in Alacati last summer. It was an incredible experience to race against the likes of Sarah Quita and Karin Jaggi!
I'm now at Exeter University studying Geography, getting out on the water as much as possible in the waves and squeezing in some freestyle sessions too. I competed in my first wave competition in Gwithian in October, which has really pushed me to improve in waves more and have excitingly booked an 8 week wavesailing trip to El Medano, Tenerife for the summer.
Jo is supported by:
Sam Ross windsurfing, Tushingham/Starboard, Exeter University

Title: Big Sky Mountain

|Bad poster
|Another book cover desperately needed!
With his rugged good looks, vast wealth and family name, hell-raiser Hutch Carmody is still the golden boy of Parable, Montana. But he's done some growing up-making peace with his illegitimate half brother and inheriting half of Whisper Creek Ranch, which should have been all his. These days, Hutch knows there are some things money can't buy: like the heart of loving, ladylike divorcée Kendra Shepherd. Kendra's quiet mansion reminds her of what she wants most-a devoted husband and the pitter-patter of little feet. She can't get Hutch Carmody out of her mind. But a rough-and-tumble cowboy like Hutch, coming home for family dinner? Seems crazy! Then again, crazier dreams have become reality under the vast Montana sky.

Egyptian Christians, Muslims cooperate in protests
Catholic World News - February 10, 2011
Christians and Muslims have protected each other during the protest demonstrations in Cairo's Tahrir Square.
Coptic Christians formed a protective wall around Muslims, allowing them space for noonday prayers. Muslims in turn offered a salute to the Copts slain in Alexandria. BBC reports that a new sign, joining the cross with the crescent, has become increasingly common among the demonstrators.

Attacks on the Press in 2011: Gambia
Years of brutal repression by President Yahya Jammeh's administration have gutted Gambia's once-vibrant independent press and driven numerous journalists into exile. In August, the government forced Taranga FM, the last independent radio station airing news in local languages, to halt its coverage. The move came ahead of an October presidential election in which Jammeh faced no viable opponent and brooked no dissent. Official repression has taken many forms over the years, including arbitrary arrests, censorship, forced closures of media outlets, verbal and physical intimidation, arson attacks, and prosecutions under restrictive legislation. These actions, coupled with impunity in attacks on media houses and journalists, have reduced the domestic news media to a handful of newspapers that operate under intense fear and self-censorship. While marketing the country internationally as an idyllic tourism destination, the government ignored two rulings by a West African human rights court: one ordering the release of reporter "Chief" Ebrima Manneh, who disappeared in state custody after his 2006 arrest, and another compelling the government to pay compensation to a journalist for illegal detention and torture.

Citation: Imakawa, K., Imai, M., Sakai, A., Suzuki, M., Nagaoka, K., Sakai, S., Lee, S.-R., Chang, K.-T., Echternkamp, S.E., Christenson, R.K. 2006. Regulation of conceptus adhesion by endometrial CXC chemokines during the implantation period in sheep. Molecular Reproduction and Development. 73(7):850-858. Interpretive Summary: Successful pregnancy in sheep requires that the embryo become attached to the lining of the uterus. The mechanisms of this attachment are not clearly defined. In this experiment, the role of CXC9, CXC10, and CXC11 in implantation, and their interaction with components of the matrix surrounding most cells, was studied. Increasing expression of all three CXC proteins was observed during early pregnancy. Of the matrix components tested, only fibronectin caused a significant increase in adhesion of trophoblast cells. The ability of trophoblast cells to adhere to fibronectin increased during early pregnancy. Inhibition of CXC proteins with specific antibodies to each protein decreased adhesion to fibronectin. These results suggest that the CXC proteins may play a role in the adhesion of the sheep embryo to the lining of the uterus during early pregnancy.
Technical Abstract: To gain a better understanding of biochemical mechanisms of conceptus adhesion to the maternal endometrium in ruminant ungulates, the present study was performed to clarify roles of chemokines and extracellular matrix (ECM) components in the regulation of ovine blastocyst attachment to the endometrium. In addition to the chemokine, interferon-gamma inducible protein 10 kDa (IP-10, CXCL10), the chemokine receptor, CXCR3, also recognizes two other chemokines; monokine induced by IFN-gamma (MIG, CXCL9) and IFN-inducible T cell alpha chemoattractant (I-TAC, CXCL11). Similar to CXCL10, CXCL9, and CXCL11 were expressed in the uterus during the peri-implantation period, and CXCL9 mRNA expression was stimulated in endometrial explants from day 14 cyclic ewes by the addition of IFN-tau or IFN-gamma. Without ECM components, conceptus cell adhesion was low on day 14 of gestation and exhibited a 2.5-fold increase on day 17; adhesiveness on day 20 was 1/10 of that on day 14. Among various ECM components examined, trophoblast adhesion was greatest when fibronectin was used. Although day 14 conceptuses did not show much adhesive activity to fibronectin, day 17 trophoblast, and day 20 chorionic membrane exhibited 2.3-fold and 50-fold increase, respectively, which was enhanced by treatment with CXCL9 or CXCL10. These results indicate that through endometrial fibronectin and chemokines, ovine conceptus cells gain the ability to attach to the endometrium during pre-implantation period; however, elucidation of molecular mechanisms by which the conceptus acquires the adhesive ability during this time period awaits further investigation.

I use Avery 5931 labels to create colorful labels for my DVDs and CDs. They are definitely preferable to writing information on the surface of the media with an indelible marker.
I use Avery 5931 labels to create colorful labels for my DVDs and CDs. They are definitely preferable to writing information on the surface of the media with an indelible marker.
Output on my color laser printer is outstanding due to several features of the Avery labels: they are a nice bright white; they have excellent hold out (opacity) so that if you apply them to media with a surface that has color, text, or a design put there by the manufacturer, the Avery label covers it adequately.
They don't curl because of the heat from the printer, and they apply easily with no bubbles or creases. I don't mind paying a little extra for the removable labels. I've never had to remove one, but that feature is there if I need it.
This may seem a bit trivial, but Avery prints text on the label stock so that it's easy to tell which side goes "up" inside the printer. I have tried samples of some discount labels that have no text on the side of the stock on which you want to print, and I have occasionally faced the labels the wrong way "up" inside the printer. I hate to waste my color toner by accidentally printing on the wrong side of the stock.
"Stick" with Avery. You'll never be sorry you bought a quality product.

Why not we make clear stickers out of CD labels? I can see it positioning toward the CD disc. I cannot see with those white or something. Use mirror print to print desired images on clear sticker CD label before we can peel the sticker off and position that to the CD disc.

Made CDs for party favors for surprise 80th birthday of retired musician. Made a mix of their music and then created CDs for everyone to have. The Avery CD labels and inserts were the perfect professional touch to them all. I reversed the page and made the listing of tracts on the opposite side of the cover so it all worked. The design and print info walked me through it all and it turned out great (my first time!). Because I was doing around 50 I also got one of Avery's little applicator machines which also worked great. It turned out even better than I hoped.

Cingular Rep Provides a List of Ways to Manipulate the Cell Phone Behemoth
Although these aren't the most ground breaking tips, or absolutely sound without reading the FINE print, they're still useful and reaffirming when it comes to Cingular contract manipulation. I've put my faves below, but you'll have to head over to the Consumerist for the complete list.
• Avoid contract extensions by changing your rate plan at a store. "If you want to change your rate plan, do it in a retail store instead of on-line or over the phone. Officially after 1/2 of your contract is over a rate plan change results in a contract extension, but I've never once seen that rule enforced in the store."
• Get credit for your mistakes. "If you go way over on your text messaging one month, go into a store and ask if they can credit you the difference if you sign up for a bigger text package. They should be able to do this, and you can always drop your text back down after you've gotten your credit."

New terror raids in northern Nigeria; Christians flee
Catholic World News - February 21, 2012
After a new rash of bombings in northern Nigeria, and a clash between Boko Haram terrorists and government troops, Bishop Oliver Dashe Doeme of Maiduguri, Nigeria, has asked for prayers for local Christians.
After Boko Haram orchestrated a bombing attack on a market in Maiduguri, reportedly killing 30 people, government troops engaged the terrorists in a gun battle and claimed to have killed 8 of the terrorists.
"The Boko Haram sect continues to attack police stations and civilian targets," reported Bishop Doeme. Christians are leaving the region, where the violence against the religious minority has been most intense."
"I call on Christians worldwide to pray for us, so that peace is restored in our country," the bishop told the Fides news service.
