Ahh, lingerie. The right kind can make a woman ten times sexier than just being naked, and the wrong kind... well, it works about the same way. When you put a girl like Denise Milani in a nice red bra and stockings, you get a photo set that's absolutely enthralling.

Endangered Species (3 Volume Set)
Rob Nagel, Sonia Benson | Uxl | 2003 | 840 | English | PDF
This guide to endangered species worldwide is highly selective, describing 700 animals and plants of the many thousands that are threatened with extinction. The species have been selected from lists compiled by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES), and IUCN-the World Conservation Union. Animal entries are arranged by species and then by family and genus; there is a separate section for plants. Entries are listed by common name, followed by scientific name. A shaded box contains phylum, class, order, and family; the status of the animal or plant on the lists of any of the three organizations; and geographic range. Essays provide a physical description, breeding and habitat information, and conservation efforts and survival outlook for the species. These entries are one to two pages in length. A small black-and-white photograph is provided for about half the entries; some of these photographs have been too tightly cropped, cutting off the animal's horns or its tail. Supplementary material consists of lists of extinct species and of wildlife and conservation organizations, a bibliography arranged by species, and a series of simple black-and-white maps of regions of the world. The geographic index shows that there is good representation of animals from all parts of the world. American species are listed both under U.S.A. and specific states. The index lists both popular and scientific names. Contents: Volume I: Mammals Volume II: Arachnids, Birds, Crustaceans, Insects, and Mollusks Volume III: Amphibians, Fish, Plants, and Reptiles

How to Build An Arbor
- Wood: 4 8ft. 4"x4" for posts, 3 4"x4" for cross braces, 2 10' long 2"x8" for the front and back beam, 5 2"x4" sides and , 4 8ft. 2"x2", 2 8ft 1"x2" for the hanging diamonds.
- 1 Gallon of natural cedar stain.
- 4 - 50lb. bags of fast setting Concrete
- Black chain and eyehooks
- Two Solar Lanterns
- Outdoor screws (I used 3.5" and 2" but smaller would have been fine)
After we had all the materials together we began with the plan. We cut the pieces to the appropriate lengths and began staining. We could have assembled the arbor first then stained but it would make it difficult to do the extra little things like the Japanese Maple Leaves we stained into the posts. The other disadvantage to staining after assembly would be the drips that might happen from up above and fall onto the wood pieces below.
When we did the second coat of stain we placed Japanese maple leaves on the post and painted the stain over them. This left a subtle impression behind.
While the posts were drying from the stain I worked on the cross beams that go across the front and back of the arbor. These were made from 10' long pieces of 2"x8" lumber cut down to 9 feet. I drew a design on each end by making a template out of cardboard and tracing the outline onto the ends of each board. I was very careful when cutting these pieces since I was going to use them as hangers for the solar lanterns later. A lot of measuring was involved in cutting the diamond shapes out. First I took a small piece of 4"x4" (which actually measures 3.5"x3.5") and used it as the diamond template. Then I drew a line lengthwise down the middle of the 2"x8" and measured the center and post diamonds. Since 4"x4" pieces would fit through both the front and the back I had to be very precise on the measurement. Once I had the center points I used the 4"x4" template to draw the diamonds by lining up the corners on the marked lines.
Then came the cuts. To make the cuts I used a 1/2" wood bit to drill holes into the corners of the diamond outlines. Then I came back with a jigsaw and cut the holes and the end pieces. It sounds easy but this step was the most tedious! When the diamond cuts are made I had to make sure that I cut a little more than what I marked since the 4"x4" pieces go through the holes and need that space. Then we sanded and stained.
The last step for this blog post was setting the posts in concrete. I dug the holes and centered the posts into the holes, then while my wife held the post I dumped the dry concrete mix into the hole and added water. No mixing was necessary with the fast setting concrete. Due to the high winds that day we measured multiple times to make sure the posts were straight and even with each subsequent post. This was a challenge and might have been done easier if we had screwed in sacrificial lumber to the posts to use as temporary support but we didn't want to harm the finish.

As an Effective Tool in Resolving Disagreements
Kristin Rochon University of Phoenix
Conflict resolution is an important skill that can be beneficial and lead to a greater understanding of our fellow man and our common denominators. It is through conflict resolution that we can learn to work together for the greater good. Conflict resolution is an important part of working in a team. Different aspects of conflict include a brief history, types of conflict, mediation, negotiation, arbitration and how to deal with conflict constructively. Conflict will arise in our everyday lives. It is how we deal with conflict that defines us,
Conflict Resolution and Its Impact in the Academic World
Conflict resolution is an important part of working in a team -- whether in an academic or professional setting.
Conflict is an inescapable part of our everyday lives. When people from different backgrounds, ages and mindsets work together, the potential for disagreement is always present. Being able to constructively manage conflict is now considered as an inevitable part of management (Elsayed-Elkhouly, 1996). This paper will discuss aspects of conflict resolution, the history of conflict resolution, why conflict resolution is important, different styles of conflict and different strategies for managing conflict including: "The Four R's," an "A-E-I-O-U" model andmediation, negotiating and arbitration ( learning Team Toolkit, n.d.). Conflicts over different goals, the process of decision making and conflicts in an academic setting occur because of controversy, conceptual conflicts, conflicts of interest and developmental conflict (Johnson & Johnson, 1995). Conflict can have positive...

Rated 3.8 out of 5 by 34 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Saavy Great Find True to size, light weight, and looks smart, all of which this jacket the perfect travel companion, especially when you are going someplace where you are unsure of the type of weather you will encounter. July 2, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by karenS Love this rain coat Needed a raincoat for a two week trip to Ireland. Purchased this coat with the separate liner. Runs a little big which is perfect for allowing room for extra layers. Coat kept me dry on day in Killarney with driving rain. Very well constructed and love the inside zippers pocket which has come in handy. I never write reviews but loved this coat so much I felt the need to share. May 11, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by LaurieM Nice Coat I have not had a chance to wear this yet, but this is a nice coat. Beautiful blue color. It has some weight to it so it will be perfect for 50/60 degree weather. A light sweater will work well . It is not however as roomy as expected. If someone is going to get the liner to go with this coat or if you want to wear a sweater I might suggest sizing up. March 13, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Capie Order size down Love this coat but needed to exchange it. If not adding the liner it fits too big. March 13, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by janders Inner Pocket Disappointment I bought this jacket for the inside zipper pockets. I am a little disappointed in their location - over breast area. I assume this is the safest place rather than at waist, but the shape of whatever is put in pockets is readily visible and not flattering looking. Also took me a while to figure out that hood can be folded into itself and hidden, but result is very bulky over the neck. March 12, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Mbnichols Versatile Three Season Jacket I have been looking for a three season jacket that I could use for traveling for both during the day (casual) and in the evening (semi dressy). The jacket has enough room for a thin to medium weight sweater. The jacket has plenty of room and I especially like that I am able to cinch the waist area. There are numerous pockets and cloth envelope/ bag with a zip pocket to fold and store the jacket while traveling. March 11, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by honest Raincoat purchase I was looking for a raincoat that would repel water and I think this will do nicely. It fit true to it's size as well. March 5, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ronna Great Travel Jacket I brought this jacket with me on a trip to Europe last fall. I wore it all the time. It was the perfect weight and easy to pack. I bought the jacket in the stone color for our trip to Ireland this fall. It will be to nice to alternate between black and stone. February 11, 2015

Sweet black currant, floral, blueberry, and cassis characteristics emerge from the 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa. With medium body, and not the power and depth apparent in other Napa bottlings, it is a more elegant, restrained effort that will be ready to drink in 3-5 years. It should last for 15+ years.Drink Dates: 2008-2020
Professional content appears courtesy of Vinfolio
($60) Full ruby-red. Aromas of cassis, graphite, mint and chocolate, plus a whiff of band-aid. Then surprisingly pliant and creamy for a Dunn cabernet, with accessible flavors of currant, licorice and milk chocolate. Finishes with rather suave tannins and some juicy acidity. Suppler than it appeared to be last spring when I tasted it from barrel, and considerably softer than the Howell Mountain bottling.Author: Stephen Tanzer

Indonesia volcano forces AirAsia to cancels flights
Kuala Lumpur (AFP) Nov 2, 2010
Malaysian budget carrier AirAsia said Tuesday it had cancelled flights to the Indonesian cities of Yogyakarta and Solo for the day due to the volcanic eruption of Mount Merapi.
The volcano began erupting a week ago, forcing up to 50,000 people into temporary shelters, and on Monday spewed more heat clouds and ash.
"The flights... to Yogya and Solo have been cancelled only for November 2. We will update if there are any further developments," an AirAsia spokeswoman told AFP, referring to four flights to the cities.
Searing grey fumes and ash shot high into the sky and rolled down the slopes of the 2,914-metre (9,616-foot) mountain, Indonesia's most active volcano, on Monday, spreading fear and panic among nearby residents in central Java.
Indonesia straddles major tectonic fault lines and has scores of active volcanoes, part of a region known as the "Ring of Fire" that circles the Pacific Ocean.

Hi. My big project right now is writing the book Learning Julia for O'Reilly; the pre-release should be online by the end of the year, and I'll post a link here when it's up.
I love getting other people excited about Julia and helping them get better at using it. I've spoken at national and international conferences and local meetups; please see my Speaking page if you'd like me to speak at your meetup or conference. If you're a company who'd like my to run a workshop teaching you how to use Julia effectively for your specific problems and environment, please see my Consulting page.
I'm a proud alumni of Hacker School. That's where I learned Julia, applied for my first conference talks, and gained an awesome support network. If you want to become a better programmer through intentional practice and join a community of kind, awesome programmers doing the same thing, then Hacker School is definitely a place for you. When I think about all the things in my life now (2 years after applying) that stemmed from attending Hacker School, it's clear to me that going to Hacker School is the highest ROI decision I've ever made.
One of the people who's in my life because of Hacker School is my favorite person, Dan Luu. He writes about programming from his perspective as an ex-CPU designer, and sometimes explains hardware for programmers. His posts are insightful and carefully researched. I'm still working on getting him to write about Julia. :)

McDonald's and Mall Burn as Employee Games On
This past October, a McDonald's and its adjacent shopping mall in China were heavily damaged due to an electrical fire which originated in the fast food restaurant's delivery area. Recently, the Beijing fire department released the main reasons as to why the fire did as much damage as it did. Unfortunately, a delayed response to the fire was a primary reason as to why it spread so far. And who did the fire department deem responsible for this delayed response? The overnight employee who was ignoring the alarms and spending his night gaming.

You can generally count on a handful of SEC prospects to emerge in the area in every class, and this year is no different, with linebacker Marlon Walls of Woodale being one name that recruiters from around the nation are already very familiar with.Walls (6-foot-3, 213 pounds, 4.5 40-yard dash) has caught the attention of pretty much every program in the SEC, with most of the 'big-time' schools in the conference already stepping to the plate with early offers. ...More...

[Detail] The David Hilton family near Weissert, Nebraska. 1887.
Chronological Thinking: Continuity and Change
The primary chronological organizer for this collection is the organization of the Oblinger letters themselves. The collection contains an index of letters by date, allowing the user to access and read the letters in order.
The daily lives and changes experienced by ordinary people such as the Oblingers have a different rhythm and tempo than the events of political or diplomatic history. It is not that the life experiences for people like the Oblingers do not change over time. Rather, those changes often occur almost imperceptibly and usually over a greater span of time compared to other historical events with which historians are concerned. Thus, the lives of ordinary people provide an excellent opportunity for examining both continuity and change over time.
Make a T-chart titled "Continuity and Change in the Oblinger Family." Label one column Continuity and the other Change. Select any year represented in the correspondence and read the family letters for that year (you may want to work with a partner so that you can divide the letters between the two of you). As you read, note changes in the family's life. For example, a new child, a marriage, a death, or a move would represent changes. When you have finished reading the letters for the year selected, note things that stayed the same in the continuity column. For example, continuing to farm, staying in touch with family members in Indiana and Minnesota, or living in the Midwest/Great Plains might be things noted in the continuity column. When you have completed the T-chart, write a paragraph summarizing continuity and change in the Oblinger family for the year selected.

Verizon Wireless announced some exciting news on Tuesday after testing the wireless data speeds of their new LTE network, which is primed to replace the current 3G network. The news from Verizon was that the test results were "shocking" and "faster than ever suggested." This comes as a great surprise to many as Verizon now expects to beat rival wireless company ATT into the LTE business by 12-18 months.
Field tests were conducted in Boston and Seattle in August and Verizon Wireless now expects to deliver these services to about 25 – 30 markets by the end of 2010. The test results that have shocked all of the Verizon Wireless engineers have shown an average download rate of 5Mbit/sec to 12Mbit/sec along with an uplink speed of 2Mbit/sec to 5Mbit/sec. With rates like these Verizon customers could expect to experience the same web surfing speeds as they don on their home computer.
Some other aspects of this announcement that have tech gurus all excited is that Verizon Wireless demonstrated the capacity to perform a live videoconference using this new LTE technology. This is an amazing feat and really demonstrates the powers that this new wireless network can really have. Testers were also able to successfully stream a movie in 1080p high definition to a handheld device which is primed to change the way we watch videos on our handheld devices.
Imagine the possibilities this type of technology could lead to. Soon you may be able to have a live video conference with several friends or colleagues using your unlocked cell phone while watching a movie and checking the stock market. When something this ground breaking comes along it really makes you start to wonder what could possibly come next.

It's been while since I last gave an update of any good content. The past months have been long ones, stuck at work for the most part, with only weekends and a random day here and there for climbing. Summer, as you know, has been a scorcher this time around. Limiting severely the bouldering potential that is summer accessible here in Wyoming and as it sounds all over the country. Most of the good Summer bouldering has been too hot. For three years those of us in southeast Wyoming who boulder have gone into the Rawah Mountains to escape the heat. One of my past posts shows some images from that boulder field. It is o.k. in the evening, but a bit sweaty for an all day tour.
Wyoming Update - Davin Bagdonas
In response to the heat wave, I began to brainstorm and remember possible escapes. As a alpine and traditional climber, back in the day of course, I had been through the Wind River Mountains many, many times. Over two thousand miles on foot! So intensely had I been thinking of the where to escape the heat, a few places were remembered in dreams. I'm thinking the window wide open above my bed, brought from a cool breeze, memories of the alpine. One area stuck with me for a week or two, getting bigger in my mind until I had to have a look. After an eight year hiatus I finally made it back to the boulder field of memory.
Five weeks ago David Lloyd of Lander, Wyoming was able to hike in with me and have a look. David has been incredibly motivated to find and develop new rock, especially in the Wind Rivers, so I knew he would be a great partner for the recon trip.Without the details of a poorly done bush-whack and re-finding the trail, we made it into the talus field in good time. Dropping into the alpine realm from a bit higher up than we should have, we ended up on the upper most talus first. It sits around 11,000 feet, just under a huge snow and ice field. Prevailing wind drops over the ridge across the snow field and air conditions the upper talus. Air cooled boulders would have been enough for the trip to be a success, but these boulders have more to give. They are completely clean of any lichen or anything else. Absolutely clean! Chalk and go on the cleanest granite I've ever seen. The granite is without exaggeration the best I've seen. So, we have the best granite, with no cleaning, and it's air conditioned. What's the catch? That would be the easy hike that's something between the RMNP Chaos Canyon hike and the Mount Evans hike, in terms of physical output. Yep, the place is fantastic and completely awesome.
With a very good exploration out of the way, we frantically looked at the calendar and made plans to go in with pads. The following weekend being the first full bouldering day in what is now being called The Falcon's Lair. The name started as a joke, wanting to have a cooler name than Wolverineland, David suggested Falcon's Lair from the huge stone falcon above the valley, and it stuck. For six weekends in a row David has made it into the Lair while I've made three. For David it' s an hour drive from Lander, for me a 4.5 hour drive from Laramie. Others have gone in too and helped spur some development up there. Some incredible lines have gone in, but the best have yet to be climbed. The first days have been crazy, with as much running around to look at every boulder as actual climbing. We return to the Lander Boulder almost every time, as it is an incredible place to warm up. And we return to the Ice Cave for it's variety of possible roof lines. The Ice Cave sits just below the snow field and is so cooled by the massive body of snow and ice it is growing icicles in it's depths. Despite the cold, the snow field is melting fast with new boulders show themselves each week. More and more clean rock is being exposed to climb. Just the upper section is enough for several seasons, while we haven't looked at the lower half of the valley. It is being saved for fall and spring when the upper sectors are either too snowy or too cold.
As one might imagine, motivation is at a ridiculous level. This weekend was a rest weekend for me. The past month has been wired with excitement and it really took it out of me. With only two weeks remaining in my year long "real job" and several weeks of climbing until I start work again, this could be my last rest for some time! The calm before the storm.
Thank you for your support so much!

|The Game Story:
|BIDDEFORD, Maine (Apr. 7) -- Senior Dylan Thomas totaled five points and sophomore Dan O'Gorman controlled 14 ground balls while going 15-for-17 on face-offs to help lead the University of New England to an 11-6 win over Nichols College in a Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) men's lacrosse match Saturday afternoon at the Big Blue Turf.
UNE halted a two-game losing streak to get back over the .500 mark at 7-6 overall, 2-2 in CCC matches. Nichols lost its third straight contest to drop to 3-7 (1-4 CCC).
Leading 3-0 after one period, the Nor'easters outscored Nichols 3-1 in the second frame to establish a 6-1 advantage heading into intermission. The Bison would tally the initial two goals of the third quarter to close within three (6-3), but Big Blue responded with the final three markers of the period and two early in the fourth to put the game away.
Junior Macaulay Gillis scored two goals and had one assist to lead the Nichols offense. Senior goalkeeper Scott Gray had a busy afternoon between the pipes, making 20 saves.
Thomas scored twice and distributed three assists to pace the UNE attack. O'Gorman, senior Matt Anderson and sophomore Patrick Wolfe also notched a pair of goals.
O'Gorman came up with 12 ground balls in the first half on his way to a career-best 14. He was supported by a career-high nine pick-ups by Anderson. As a team, UNE held a huge advantage in that department (59-27), as well as shots (59-24) and face-offs won (19-2).
Senior Nate Porter played the first three quarters in the cage to earn the victory for the Nor'easters. He saved 10 shots on goal.
Both teams return to action Wednesday. UNE hosts a CCC match versus Gordon College at 7 p.m., while the Bison entertain Salve Regina University (7 p.m.) as part of Play For The Cure Week.

While Uber and Lyft are the most prominent example of smartphones disrupting the taxi industry, a new app feature from Hailo is hoping to shake up both companies by letting Hailo users pay for journeys using their iPhone — even when they're in a non-Hailo booked taxi.
The feature is called "Pay with Hailo" and uses Apple's iBeacon technology to automatically recognize taxis, with users given the option to connect and pay for a journey automatically as soon as they set foot inside a vehicle. Even if the driver doesn't have an iBeacon set up in their cab, it's still possible to pay the fare by choosing their name from a list inside the app.

Bruges vs. Lille
My friend and I have 2 extra days in Europe and are trying to decide between spending them in Bruges or Lille, France. Any suggestions? We haven't been to either one. Thanks!
My friend and I have 2 extra days in Europe and are trying to decide between spending them in Bruges or Lille, France. Any suggestions? We haven't been to either one. Thanks!
I can only say that my friend recently went to both; he's in Turkey at the moment, so I can't ask him for more details. However, I know he was not as taken with Bruges as I was (I liked it, he was more neutral). And he had 3 days in Lille (including the arrival jet lag day), and had ideas for day trips in case he didn't like it, but didn't need to take any day trips because he liked it more than he expected. I've never been to Lille, so I can't compare them myself. Lille will definitely have fewer tourists than Bruges, and it's substantially larger, if those are factors. Until recently, Lille was very economically depressed (see the wonderful but depressing movie The Dream Life Of Angels to see the "rust belt of France" aspect of the area), while Bruges has a time tripping quality that some love and others find too "theme park" to enjoy.
I've never been to Lille but we did go to Bruges last year for a few days and loved it. We loved it so much that we will be making a stop there again next month towards the end of our rail trip!
I stayed in Lille, but only because I could get a room there with points. It was Ok, but my real goal was to go to Bruges, and since it is only 40 miles away we just drove there for the day. I think Bruges is definitely more charming than Lille, but I was there during the Christmas Market and really enjoyed it. I am sure it is lovely in the summer as well. Much more a tourist destination than Lille....
Thanks everyone! That's great input!
Hi, I've been to both but more recently and more time was spent in Lille than Brugges. If you want to see the big city in northern France, go to Lille. Brugges is when you prefer a smaller, quaint place. I liked both but Lille was more interesting to me.
" San Francisco or Alameda? " James says it all!!!! Bruges, for sure.

When it comes to finding a state to which to retire, there are plenty of factors to consider.
There's the weather, proximity to family and friends, access to health care, quality of life, and the list goes on, according to CCH, Wolters Kluwer.
But one factor that you might want to weigh more heavily than others when deciding where to live in retirement is the degree to which your precious income and assets will be taxed.
"Retirees should really do their homework on the types of taxes they'd be responsible for paying and the rates they'd be taxed at when comparing different locations," Sandy Weiner, a state tax analyst for Wolters Kluwer, CCH, said in a release.
Specifically, you should consider, according to Weiner and others, state taxes on retirement benefits, state income-tax rates, state and local sales tax rates, state and local property taxes, state estate taxes, state inheritance taxes, and the overall tax burden.
Indeed, the best state for you to retire to, tax wise at least, will depend on many personal factors, including your level of income, your sources of income, how you spend your money, whether you are able to itemize deductions, and how states and municipalities raise revenue. (Some states, for instance, might seem like a haven for retirees by one measure, but not such much by other measure.)
So, let's say that you among those retirees in the upper income quartile, who have, on average, income of $78,180 and where 18% of your income or $14,072 comes from Social Security, 22% or $17,199 comes from a pension, 44% or $34,399 comes from earnings, and the rest comes from your various retirement accounts in the form of dividends, interest income, and capital gains.
States to consider/avoid if you plan on working in retirement
Given that, you ought to move to a state that has no income tax.
According to Weiner, seven states fall into that category: Alaska, Florida, Nevada, South Dakota, Texas, Washington and Wyoming. And two other states, New Hampshire and Tennessee, impose taxes only on dividends and interest (5% for New Hampshire and 6% for Tennessee for 2013 and remain the same in 2014).
Consider also states that have a relatively low income-tax rate across all income levels. For example, the highest marginal income-tax rates in Arizona, Kansas, New Mexico and North Dakota are below 5%, according to Weiner. And some states have a relatively low flat tax regardless of income, with the three lowest being Indiana (3.4%), Michigan (4.25%) and Pennsylvania (3.07%) for 2014. And, according to Weiner, the Illinois flat tax rate will be reduced from 5% to 3.75% in 2015.
States to consider if you rely mostly on Social Security and pensions
But what if you're more an average retiree household, where 36.7% of your income comes from Social Security, 30.2% from earnings, 18.6% from a pension, and the balance from your accounts earmarked for retirement?
In this case, you might consider moving to a state that don't tax your Social Security and private pension income. Those 10 states are Alaska, Florida, Mississippi, New Hampshire, Nevada, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington and Wyoming, according to Weiner.
For the record, Weiner said many states may tax all you pension income, but if you've worked for the state government, they may exempt it. In other words, you might not want to move out of state if you were a state worker.
Big spenders might consider these states
Now if you're the sort of retiree who plans to spend a lot of money buying things in retirement, consider living in one of the five states that don't impose a state sales-and-use tax: Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire and Oregon.
For the record, 45 states and the District of Columbia impose a state sales-and-use tax, according to CCH, and some much more than others. So, big spenders might want to avoid moving to California, which has a state sales tax rate of 7.5%, and Indiana, Mississippi, New Jersey, Rhode Island and Tennessee, all of which have a state sales tax rate of 7%.
It's also wise to check other types of taxes might affect you. According to CCH, local sales and use taxes, imposed by cities, counties and other special taxing jurisdictions, such as fire protection and library districts, also can add significantly to your rate.
Most tax-friendly
When all is said, it would seem — by almost every measure — that Wyoming is the most tax-friendly state in the country for retirees. "It's a low populace state and they've taken a very conservative approach to taxes," said Weiner, who noted all the no income tax states ought to be viewed as the most tax friendly. Read MarketWatch's Retire Here, Not There: Wyoming.
All things being equal, the other top tax-friendly states are Alaska, Florida, Mississippi, New Hampshire, Nevada, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, and Washington. "Alaska and Nevada have revenue sources from natural resources and from gambling," said Weiner.
Take a look at this PDF to see a full chart on how various states tax different types of retirement income.
States to avoid
For the record: The least income tax-friendly states, if the bulk of your retirement income is coming from pensions and Social Security, would certainly include Nebraska, North Dakota, Rhode Island, Vermont and West Virginia.
And regardless of your sources of income, you probably don't want to move to a state that taxes all your retirement income. According to Weiner, states generally taxing pension income include: Arizona, California, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota, Rhode Island, Vermont, West Virginia, and North Carolina beginning with the 2014 tax year.
And 14 states impose a tax on Social Security income: Colorado, Connecticut, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, New Jersey, North Dakota, Rhode Island, Vermont and West Virginia. According to CCH, those states either tax Social Security income to the same extent that the federal government does or provide breaks for Social Security income, often for lower-income individuals.
In addition, consider the degree to which a state taxes capital gains. If you're a business owner, for instance, review with a tax accountant how different states might tax the sale of your business. "They may not want to get that income when they are living in California," said Weiner. "They may want to move first and then sell the business."
Beware property taxes
States that tend not to tax retirement income have to generate revenue somehow. And more often than not, that revenue comes in the form of other taxes such as property and sales. New Hampshire, for example, has no personal income tax but property taxes in the live-free-or-die state, as a percent of property values, are the third highest in the country.

Editorial: Copies of Napoles's list-A A +A
Friday, April 25, 2014
THERE is a logical reason in the refusal of Justice Secretary Leila de Lima to release the list of people that businesswoman Janet Lim-Napoles linked to the multi-billion-peso pork barrel scam. The Department of Justice (DOJ), after all, is still validating Napoles's claims.
The validation has the purpose of: first, finding out if Napoles's intention is honest and is not a scheme to muddle the prosecution of the case; second, to verify, using other pieces of evidence, the actual participation of each name in the list to ensure that only the guilty will be named publicly.
As de Lima correctly said, to release the list without validation would cause "mayhem."
Yet, the very same prudence with which de Lima is using to deal with Napoles's bombshell seems to be playing into the hands of those who would like to cause "mayhem" in public discourse. They simply had to claim to have the Napoles list, release the names of those supposedly involved and in the process taint de Lima's intention.
Among those who claimed to have seen the Napoles list was former senator Panfilo Lacson, who said he met with Napoles's husband and her two children last month. That meeting wasn't denied by Napoles's lawyer Bruce Rivera, but he said the list Lacson saw was not yet complete.
Sandra Cam, supposed president of the largely unknown Whistleblowers Association, also claimed to have a copy of the list, as did other personalities with dubious intentions. Unlike Lacson, they didn't say where they got the list copies.
Interestingly, these people are claiming to have the "unsanitized" list, meaning that, whatever de Lima will come out later they can already claim as "sanitized." That's the recipe for "mayhem."
While it is good to be suspicious of what de Lima and the DOJ are doing with the Napoles list, it is also wrong to fall for the scheme concocted by those who want to sow anarchy for the benefit of either the scam participants or the political spin doctors.
In this sense, people need to be able to differentiate honest intention from the bad one, objective discussion from propaganda. They must realize that those involved in the scam have the resources and power to sow disinformation and blunt efforts to prosecute them.

Dan Sindel featured in Electronic Musician -
July 2008
Dan Sindel's Symphonic Guitars earn a full page Pro-File in the media giant "Electronic Musician" magazines July 2008 issue.
The article covers quite alot of ground as writer Emile Menasché eloquently summed up Dan's "Symphonic Guitar" approach to multi tracking layer upon layer of guitar tracks to create a huge wall of sound and also talks about his debut release of "Marching In: A Tribute to the March King John Philip Sousa".

Dan Sindel's Symphonic Guitars earns a write up in "GUITAR PLAYER" magazines April 2008 issue.
The article reads:
(page 36, Speaking of "The Liberty Bell", Michael Molenda editor in chief says)
"A lot of guitarists claim to be "orchestral" players, and the result is often dreadful to my ears, but Sindel is cagey enough to be both hilarious and enjoyable. His reading of this John Sousa march - perhaps best known as the Monty Python theme - is well arranged and goofy. It's whacked out genius!"

Welcome to dansindel.usA place to share musical ideas with you!
Symphonic Guitar Driven Classics - Mp3's, Videos and More…
The creation of this site was a logical component in my experience as a musician as well as a way to "give back" to the music community that has enriched my appreciation for the arts.
For many years music has been the guiding light as a form of expression and creativity and it is my hope and desire that the talents given to me may serve as point of inspiration just as other's before me have encouraged and challenged my desire to develop and realize my dreams.
The main objective is to keep this site entertaining and a fun place to hang out for awhile. There are guitar related Jigsaw
puzzles to download and solve, webcam videos to watch and an abundant list of mp3's I have recorded using my humble little home studio.
Spring 1977, it was all over! When Dan heard Jimmy Page hit the open "D" string and toggle the pickup selector switch and launch into the live version of "The Song Remains the Same", he knew his life would never quite "remain the same"...
Having spent a few years playing Trumpet, French Horn and Trombone in various Junior High School Jazz Bands and Orchestra's Dan was completely oblivious to this style of heavy guitar driven music.
This newfound discovery became a sonic obsession and the first order of business was to learn how to play guitar. At 14, Dan signed up for lessons with an amazing teacher, Philippe Willems (Facts Of Music®) who in turn was a protégé of the Legendary "Chord Chemist" Ted Greene (R.I.P). After a few years studying with Philippe, Dan was fortunate enough to start taking private lessons with Ted Greene and continued to study with Ted on and off for over 20 years."
Dan has been recording an extensive catalog of public domain orchestral works showcasing his musical depth and versatility as well as his own diverse musical compositions. His musical influences range from classical, jazz, ragtime, big band, swing, marching band to rock and heavy metal in all its forms.
Music is his passion and Dan's demo work has been receiving international acclaim, airplay and was voted first place in the 2005 DMusic Awards (www.dmusic.com) in the classical category with his interpretation of Vivaldi's The Four Seasons - The Spring.
Having received "hundreds of thousands" of downloads via his site, blog and podcast's Dan is absolutely thrilled as an upcoming artist to see that so many people are enjoying his "Symphonic Guitar" approach."
Furthering his "Symphonic Guitars" concept, Dan is in production for his debut Album "Marching In - A Tribute to the March King" - John Philip Sousa" working in conjunction with many of music's top mixing/mastering engineers.
"Marching In" has a scheduled April 2008 release date.

Symphonic Guitars
What if the Classical Masters had access to Electric Guitars, Amps, Fuzz Boxes, Wah Wah pedals, Digital Delays, Flangers, Multitrack Hard Disk Recording Devices, Computers and other various Digital Sound Processing toys"?
Dan's latest recording project is quite exciting as he rearranged some of his favorite Sousa conductor scores and got busy recording a multitude of guitar lines utilizing a good proportion of new and old technologies, enlisted some of music's top mixing/mastering engineers and is now proud to announce the arrival of his debut EP entitled "Marching In - A Tribute to the March King" - John Philip Sousa"
The 6 song CD has been pressed in "limited quantities" for the upcoming winter NAMM show in Anaheim, CA (Jan 17-21) to generate interest in the full debut CD which has a scheduled release date of April 2008.
The disc will feature 3 "Advance Release" Sousa tracks and a beautifully digitally re-mastered Excerpts From Handel's Messiah as a bonus track which rounds off the project by showcasing Dan's depth and versatility as a musician.
On Jan 22, 2008, we will offer the opportunity to purchase the CD and once the supply is gone these discs will be sure to be a collector item

See head-butting rams at Utah's Bighorn Sheep viewing day
Few moments in the wildlife world are more violent than the annual mating season of bighorn sheep; at least the events that don't end in a death.
It isn't the mating that causes people to cringe, but dominance determination by the rams.
Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (DWR) officials can't guarantee that participants will see bighorn sheep ramming heads, but it is possible during the annual free Bighorn Sheep Watch on Saturday along the Green River, north of the town of Green River.
"Bighorn are in the rut this time of year, so they are less wary of people," DWR outreach manager Brent Stettler said in a statement. "The opportunity to see the courtship behavior of these animals is worth the trip."
Because the animals are so focused on deciding dominance and courtship, Stettler says, they are less leery of vehicles and allow for observations as close as 50 yards. People stepping out of vehicles will likely cause the wild sheep to move farther away.
Participants will meet at 8 a.m. at the John Wesley Powell Museum parking lot, 1765 E. Main St., in Green River. The group will then travel by caravan along the river road looking for sheep.
DWR officials suggest bringing spotting scopes, binoculars and cameras. Stettler will have some spotting scopes and binoculars for use as well.
No registration is necessary to attend, but people with questions can call 435-613-3707 or email email@example.com.

Yuyupas, a Tsou tribe cultural park, attracts a lot of visitors to explore the beauty of Alishan Mt. and the culture of the aboriginals. Picture: A young girl from the Tsou ethnic group introduces the new park and traditional cuisine. (File Photo/Chen Jun-wei)
"The high mountains are green, the gully waters are blue, the girls of Alishan are beautiful as the streams, the boys are as strong as the mountains..."
Many Chinese, enchanted by this Taiwanese indigenous folk song, used to visit mountainous Alishan in southern Taiwan hoping to glimpse the girls of Alishan, not realizing that most of the region's young had left for better jobs and moved to cities in search of a more exciting life.
Kuatu Akuyaana, 25, from the Taiwan's aboriginal Tsou ethnic group, returned to her hometown last year after completing her college education at central Taichung City's Taiwan College of Physical Education. She now works in a beverage store in Alishan.
Numbering barely 5,000, the Tsou, who inhabit Alishan, is one of the ethnic groups native to Taiwan.
"Like many other Tsou girls and boys, I used to be obsessed with urban life, but now I've come back," said Kuatu, while giving a tea art performance for visitors of Yuyupas, a Tsou cultural tribe park, in Leye Village in Alishan Township, Chiayi County.
"Finding jobs has become pretty difficult in the cities, but Yuyupas provides us a platform to showcase our traditional culture, find our identity, and most important of all, a stable salary," she said.
Established in June 2010 and covering an area of about two hectares, Yuyupas is located at about 1,200 meters above sea level in the mountainous Alishan area and is surrounded by extensive tea gardens.
Originating from the Tsou language, Yuyupas means "very rich." Together with Kuatu in the park are more than 60 Tsou young people. "My older and younger sisters also work here," Kuatu said.
Yapsuyongu Tiakiana, head of Yuyupas, said to attract youngsters to return to their hometown, the Tsou set up a cultural innovation industry association four years ago which then established the park.
"In the past, many aboriginal people migrated to the cities. Now, tourism and related businesses have helped reverse this tide. Being tribal is once again a matter of pride for the young," he said.
"The park creates a new model for developing tribal tourism. It's just like a thread. It links and revitalizes almost every aspect of the Tsou lifestyle, including agricultural production, tea tree plantation, leather crafts, traditional singing and dancing," he said.
He explained that the park's restaurant offers Tsou food which brings vegetables grown by the Tsou to the visitor's dinner table, and several small stores sell local tea and coffee products, as well as leather crafts produced by a total of six Tsou tribes. "The park is the Tsou people's craft studio and farm, and a base for their cultural innovation."
Earlier this month, an original two-hour outdoor performance by Tsou youngsters debuted in the park. The production was inspired by "Impression Liu Sanjie," a large-scale outdoor performance masterminded by the famous mainland director Zhang Yimou. The production had revived traditional Tsou nose flute playing, and ritual dancing, previously barely seen by non-Tsou people.
Kuatu said each member in the park has three specialities on average. "For example, I can give tea art performance, do some gardening work, and at the same time sing during our performance."
However, Tsou tribes were hit hard by the devastating Typhoon Morakot on Aug. 8 last year. Yapsuyongu Tiakiana said "The people are in dire need of a peaceful and stable life with houses to live in and good income to pay for their children's education fees. But apart from ensuring survival and economic development, we also aim to pass on and revive our endangered culture."
Presently many Tsou young do not know much about their tribal heritage and cannot speak the Tsou language, although some, like Kuatu, can understand it. "I'm trying hard to learn my language. It has become a must for me now," she said.
Although much of their traditional culture and heritage already lost, Tsou people who wish to to cherish and preserve their priceless cultural knowledge as well as their natural treasures are essential for the future of their people and livelihoods.

Suppression of ovary development of worker honeybees by association with workers treated with Carbon Dioxide
Jeffrey W. Harris And John R. Harbo
Newly emerged worker honeybees (Apis mellifera L.) aged less than 24 h were placed into queenless cages and given a section of empty drone comb and unlimited supplies of honey, water and pollen. Cages were kept in an incubator at 34 ± 1°C. Workers treated with a IS-min exposure to CO2 at 0-3 days of age produced significantly fewer eggs than controls that received no CO2. Workers in queenless cages for 4-6 days before CO2 narcosis had egg production equal to that of controls. Thus CO2 had no apparent effect after the workers had been queenless for 4 days. In a second study, 5 untreated workers shared cages with 25 sisters that had been treated with three 15-min doses of CO2. Association with the treated workers retarded ovary development of the untreated cagemates when compared 10 sister bees in identical cages that contained no bees given CO2, Cages with treated workers consumed only 17% as much pollen as controls. So low pollen consumption may have reduced the total amount of protein that was available and shared within the caged population. Since oogenesis requires protein, a lack of protein may have retarded ovary development.

Lloyd may have seemed like a prick to the Media but was very giving to charities and to people on a personal level. My friends dad who was a big michigan fan was diagnosed with Lou Gherigs a few years after we graduated High School in 96. He was starting to get really sick so the family had a party for the dad knowing there wasn't much time left for him. There were some surprise guests that day. Into the house walked in Lloyd Carr and a handfull of Michigan players. Lloyd didn't have to do that. The dad wasn't an alumni or booster. There was no coverage of this or nothing to be gained. He did it out of the kidness of his heart. That made my friends dads day that day a little easier and life long fans of Lloyd Carr as a person.
"He makes it really easy on you as a coach because he has tremendous football instincts," Michigan tight ends coach Jay Harbaugh said. "Things come really naturally to him. He doesn't have to see things too many times. He has a good sense for how things should look and feel, and he's a tough, physical guy."
