Such A Deal As There Never Was.
Washington and the beltway are in an ecstasy of self-congratulation.

The California Supreme Court ruled Friday that state Senate maps drawn by the citizens commission will be used in this year's elections, despite the pending referendum to overturn them.
As you may recall, the issue came before the High Court after a Republican-backed group-- Fairness and Accountability in Redistricting (FAIR)--filed signatures with county elections offices in a referendum to overturn Senate maps drawn by the citizens commission.
Californians will decide the fate of the newly drawn Senate districts in November if 504,760 of the signatures are from valid voters. Legislative candidates must file and run their campaigns before then, however, so justices needed to identify district maps to be in effect immediately.
County elections offices face a February 24th deadline for certifying FAIR's referendum signatures. Thus far, they have verified 57,761 of 80,127 signatures checked. If the percentage of valid signatures holds steady, 72 percent, the referendum would qualify for the ballot.
Twenty Senate seats are up for grabs this year - and the results carry high-stakes politically. GOP officials contend that the new, commission drawn lines would give Democrats a strong chance of gaining two additional seats in the Senate, enough to gain the two-thirds supermajority needed to raise taxes or fees.
The Supreme Court previously rejected a lawsuit filed by FAIR that contended the commission's Senate maps illegally dilute Latino voting clout in parts of the state and violate criteria established by voters in a 2008 ballot measure.

Noda to dissolve Diet paving way for Japan poll
Japanese prime minister Yoshihiko Noda said he will dissolve the Diet on November 16, paving the way for elections next month that polls show his Democratic Party of Japan will lose. Speaking in parliament a day after the DPJ reached a deal with two opposition parties on legislation to fund the rest of this years budget, Noda said he would dissolve the lower house if a deal is reached to cut the number of lawmakers in the chamber. Former premier Shinzo Abe, head of the main opposition Liberal Democratic Party, agreed to the proposal. Based on that, I will dissolve parliament on November 16, Noda said. DPJ acting secretary-general Jun Azumi told reporters the party agreed to a December 16 election date. The prime ministers popularity has plummeted over his management of an economy burdened by stagnant growth, deflation and the worlds largest debt. He faces discontent within the ruling party from some lawmakers who sought to put off an election.
Nokia buys Earthmine for 3-D ability
Nokia Oyj, the struggling Finnish smartphone maker, is acquiring 3-D map-technology maker Earthmine Inc. and revamping its mapping tools under a new brand name to win back customers from rivals such as Apple Inc. The Earthmine purchase will help Nokia expand in mapping, a growing business it considers key to driving smartphone sales and becoming profitable again. The company unveiled Here, the brand for its location services and website, at an event in San Francisco yesterday, and said it has created a mapping app for Apples mobile devices. It will also make its map technology open to developers using Googles Android operating system. Nokia, which started selling its flagship Lumia 920 smartphone this month, is promoting location features to differentiate itself from Apple and devices running Android software. Espoo, Finland-based Nokia bought Chicago-based map provider Navteq for $8.1 billion in 2008 and continues to build its business selling maps to customers such as Amazon.com, Yahoo!, Daimler AGs Mercedes-Benz and Nikon Corp.

You'll never tire of knitting (or wearing) this knockout pullover. One side is stitched top to bottom, the other side to side in an artful combination of yarns; details like garter ridges and fringed flap pockets keep things interesting. Looks fabulous on any figure!
12 sts + 16 rows = 4" (10 cm) in St st (k on RS, p on WS). BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size
specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be
sufficient. The needle or hook size called for in the pattern is based on what
the designer used, but it is not unusual for gauge to vary from person to person.
If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make your swatch, try using a smaller
size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
Making a Gauge Swatch
12 sts + 16 rows = 4" (10 cm) in St st (k on RS, p on WS). BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE.
Stripe Pattern Sweater is worked in random stripes of any color or yarn, except Bouclé. Work in stripe pattern of choice (for example: 6 rows Homespun, 3 rows Color Waves, 8 rows Watercolors...). Insert Bouclé "mini-stripes" as follows: at random places on RS rows, drop yarn and work a random number of stitches in bouclé, turn work, knit back to starting point, cut Bouclé, turn and continue in previous yarn.
Sweater is designed to be knit with a creative mixture of yarns. Work swatch with a few rows of each color to determine what size needle to use to get closest to gauge.Editor's Note: When creating fringe using Homespun please note that because of the texture of the yarn the fringe will fray when cut. If you prefer a non-frayed look you can knot the ends, knit or crochet a fringe, or use hairspray or fray check.
With longer needle and any yarn except Bouclé, cast on 39 (42, 47, 50, 54) sts. Work in random stripe pattern for 13 (13, 13, 13, 14)", ending with a RS row. Shape Sleeve: Continuing in stripe pattern, cast on 12 sts at beg of next row, then cast on 6 sts at beg of every other row 8 times – 99 (102, 107, 110, 114) sts. Work even in stripe pattern until Front measures 19 (19, 20, 20, 21)", ending with a WS row. Shape Neck (RS): Bind off 21 (21, 24, 24, 27) sts, work to end of row – 78 (81, 83, 86, 87) sts. Continue in pattern until neck edge measures 4", ending with a WS row. Cast on 21 (21, 24, 24, 27) sts at beg of next row and continue on these 99 (102, 107, 110, 114) sts until lower edge of Sleeve measures 9 (9, 10, 10, 10)", ending with a RS row. Shape Sleeve: Bind off 6 sts at beg of next and every following WS row 8 times, then bind off 12 sts next WS row – 39 (42, 47, 50, 54) sts. Work even in stripe pattern for 13 (13, 13, 13, 14) inches. Bind off loosely.
With RS facing, longer needle and bouclé, starting at lower Right Front edge, pick up and knit 57 (57, 60, 60, 63) sts evenly along Front edge, then cast on 12 sts; starting at upper Back edge, pick up and knit 63 (63, 66, 66, 69) sts evenly along Back edge – 132 (132, 138, 138, 144) sts. Knit one row in Bouclé. Work even in stripe pattern until Left Front measures 6 (7, 7½, 8½ , 9)" from pick-up row, ending with a WS row. Shape Sleeve: Bind off 39 (39, 39, 39, 42) sts at beg of next 2 rows – 54 (54, 60, 60, 60) sts. Work even until Left Sleeve measures 4", ending with a WS row. Continue in stripe pattern, dec 1 st at each edge next and every following 4th row 14 (14, 15, 15, 15) times total – 26 (26, 30, 30, 30) sts. Work even until Left Sleeve measures 20".

With RS facing, longer needle and boucle, pick up one st in each stitch at lower edge of sweater. Work as for neck opening.
With yarn of choice, cast on 16 sts. Work 6" in garter st (k every row). Bind off. With another yarn, pick up and knit 16 sts along one side of pocket. Knit 2 rows. Continue in garter st, bind off 1 st at beg of every row until 1 st remains. Fasten off. Sew Pocket onto Right Front.

First problem was 4 miles of very dusty gravel road to get to park. They encourage you to wash your RV after you get there it is soooo dust covered. The interior streets are paved but the sites are gravel. The sites were huge but our "pull thru" was not a pull thru because of low hanging limbs. The other problem was the extreme variance of voltage (from 108 to above 132) which caused our surge protector to cut the power off many times. - consort

Paved roads in campground, a few miles of well maintained gravel road to get here. Mostly level gravel sites. Nice folks run the place. About a half hour drive to Iowa State Fairgrounds. Reasonable monthly rates. One of the best this full timer has stayed at. Stayed all winter and never had a utility interruption. Good TV over antenna. Paid by the month so I don't know the nightly rate. - ttankie

Book synopsis
The studies presented in this volume focus on two distinct but related areas of specialized communication professional and academic settings, resting on an anti-essentialist notion of identity as a phenomenon that emerges from the dialectic between individual and society.
The authors start from a detailed analysis of discourse practices as evidenced in texts, their production and the professional performance patterns which underlie such practices, and explore the way the actors, roles and identities are constructed in language and discourse. In particular, by highlighting discursive attitudes and aptitudes, they underscore the need to understand discourse in light of norms of professional responsibility, showing that not only do professionals and academics use discourse to create self-identity, but they also use identity constructed through discourse to influence society.

About the author(s)/editor(s)
The Editors: Giuliana Garzone is Professor of English Linguistics and Translation at the Università degli Studi di Milano, Italy. Her main research interests are in specialized discourse in its different domains, and in translation and interpreting studies. She has co-ordinated several research projects and published extensively on legal language, scientific discourse, business communication, political discourse and on translation and interpreting. In recent times her research has examined the impact of multimodality on professional communication, focusing on text types and genres embedded in the web-mediated environment.
James Archibald teaches at McGill University, Montreal, where he chairs the Department of Translation Studies. He has also taught as an invited professor or research associate at the Centre de recherche des écoles de Coëtquidan Saint-Cyr (2004-2007), the Dipartimento di Lingue e culture contemporanee, Università degli Studi di Milano (2008), and the Centre des langues et de traduction, Université libanaise (2009 and 2010). A Chevalier in the Ordre des Palmes Académiques, he received the Francis W. Weeks Award of Merit from the Association for Business Communication in 2008. He is a member of the Office des professions du Québec.
«'Discourse, Identities and Roles in Specialized Communication' takes a deep and impressive look at identity construction, reconstruction and interpretation in professional and academic discourses. Its scholastic dragnet scopes over not only specialized communication, as its title suggests, but also all areas of applied linguistics and sociologically grounded terrains of language studies. Scholars from these disciplines are, therefore, invited to utilize the rich findings in the book and participate in the engaging debates that have emerged from them.» (Akin Odebunmi, Discourse Studies 14, 2012/2)

Singer-songwriter Susanna Hoffs (from www.susannahoffs.com)
Best known as the lead singer of the 1980s group The Bangles, Susanna Hoffs takes us down memory lane.
Perhaps the unlikeliest act to perform at the recent Stagecoach Country Music Festival in California, Susanna Hoffs acknowledges she doesn't keep up with the latest sounds out of Nashville.
But the Bangles singer-guitarist known for such MTV-era pop hits as Manic Monday and Walk Like An Egyptian is all about roots music – in her case, the influential mid-1960s folk-rock of the Byrds and Linda Ronstadt singing Different Drum with the Stone Poneys.
In 2006, Hoffs recorded a version of Different Drum for the first in a series of covers albums she made with the power-pop veteran Matthew Sweet. And at Stagecoach she played the song in a crisply propulsive show that also included Hazy Shade Of Winter and Big Star's September Gurls, as well as fresh renditions of some of the Bangles' biggest hits.
After her set, Hoffs, 55, answered questions backstage.
Manic Monday and Eternal Flame sounded great today – kind of eerie but pretty, like something by the Velvet Underground.
The Velvets were the band I found out about in college as part of this wave of information coming to me at that point in my life. It's a very rich time. You've graduated from high school, but you don't have to live in the real world yet; you just get to have four years to make a ton of mistakes and learn a bunch of stuff.
I was a theatre and dance major at UC Berkeley, and for me it was all about becoming an artiste. I came around to music through the Sex Pistols and Patti Smith and Television, and then they led me back to the Velvet Underground.
Is remaking your old songs fun today?
For sure. I did this live Portlandia show with Fred (Armisen) and Carrie (Brownstein) a couple of years ago, and I just told them to pick whatever they wanted me to do and I'd do it.
They picked Manic Monday and Sunday Morning (by the Velvet Underground), so I went to the sound check and had this cool reverb on my amp and started playing this kind of alternative version of Manic Monday, and we just started jamming.
And I had this realisation that just because the song was recorded a certain way doesn't mean I have to always play it like that; it doesn't have to live in that box. So when we were rehearsing for Stagecoach, we were fiddling with it again and making it a little more Rolling Stones – kind of Honky Tonk Women.
Does doing your own stuff ever feel like playing a cover? A song like Eternal Flame, it's so familiar that I wonder if your sense of ownership begins to recede.
It's an interesting phenomenon. The first time I realised it was when the oldies station that I grew up listening to, K-Earth 101, started playing Walk Like An Egyptian." We were on the oldies station!
How'd that feel?
It feels good. Sometimes I'll just be juggling the normal day-to-day stuff, and then I'll hear Eternal Flame on some TV show or something. Or I'll hear a Muzak version at the supermarket. It's kind of a nice surprise; it reminds me that this dream I had as a kid, this dream to play music, I actually got to do it.
The Bangles released an album in 2011, and the next year you put out a solo record. Writing and recording are still important to you.
When I'm not doing it, I'm not as happy. There's something about the act of making something that's very stabilising. For other people it could be sports or cooking or pottery; for
me it's music.
Let's talk new music. You said you don't really listen to country, but what about other styles?
That's where my niece, who's 25, comes in. And my kids, who are 15 and 19. I listen to their mix tapes. Well, I still call them mix tapes. But they're Spotify playlists and things.
What have they turned you on to?
Oh, so many bands! The New Pornographers, St Vincent – things I should've known. In a way, I still live somewhat in that 1960s/1970s bubble. But I've actually drifted into the 1980s, which is crazy, considering that I experienced the 1980s firsthand.
You could say you helped create them.
I guess so. It's funny: Back then I just wanted to drag the 1960s into the 1980s and play 12-string Rickenbacker guitars and sound like the Byrds. So I'm a decade behind. – Los Angeles Times/McClatchy-Tribune Information Services

Great….up until
This review is from: Jawbone JAMBOX Black Diamond Bluetooth Speaker / Speakerphone
Pros: Wireless, very good sound for the size. Bluetooth, and may be used as a speaker phone.
Cons: I really enjoyed everything about this product up until it just ceased working. It wasn't damaged or dropped it just stopped. The warranty might as well be eliminated or you should purchase an extended one. Because the factory warranty is poor. A product this nice and expensive should last much longer.
Other Thoughts: If I buy another, it will have a decent warranty.

Georgian children at a camp for internally displaced people in Gori
MOSCOW (Reuters) About 30,000 people are still displaced from the five-day war between Moscow and Tbilisi which erupted a year ago when Georgian forces attacked breakaway South Ossetia, Amnesty International has said.
The London-based rights group said on August 7 that the displaced, mostly ethhic Georgians, lack basic services and suffer hardship from the de facto borders dividing the pine-covered enclave and Georgia proper, which were established after the conflict when Moscow recognised it as independent.
Amnesty said 192,000 people were displaced in the war, which started on August 7, though the Georgian government had previously put this number at 138,000.
In a new 46-page report on the displaced from the war, Amnesty said of the 38,500 people who fled to Russia from South Ossetia, all but an estimated 4,000 have returned.
Russia's Deputy Foreign Minister Grigory Karasin, in a conference call on August 6, declined to put a figure on the total number displaced, but said many displaced Georgians in South Ossetia will move to Georgia.
The only official way into the region is now through the 4-kilometer Roki Tunnel from North Ossetia in Russia as all borders with Georgia proper have been closed.
Many displaced ethnic Georgians "no longer have access to their fields or orchards" due to the new borders or "because the area has not been cleared of explosives," Amnesty said. Many had become dependent on humanitarian aid.
The closure of the monitoring mission by the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) and the exclusion of EU monitors from South Ossetia deprives people of "international scrutiny," leading to insecurity, writes Amnesty.
The rebel region's administration says South Ossetia today has a population of 63,000, and that several thousand ethnic Ossetians are still homeless.
Reconstruction money from Moscow is trickling in to the region it has allotted 8.5 billion roubles ($273 million) this year though some officials complain it is stolen.

The Cartographers Guild is a forum created by and for map makers and aficionados, a place where every aspect of cartography can be admired, examined, learned, and discussed. Our membership consists of professional designers and artists, hobbyists, and amateursall are welcome to join and participate in the quest for cartographic skill and knowledge.
Although we specialize in maps of fictional realms, as commonly used in both novels and games (both tabletop and role-playing), many Guild members are also proficient in historical and contemporary maps. Likewise, we specialize in computer-assisted cartography (such as with GIMP, Adobe apps, Campaign Cartographer, Dundjinni, etc.), although many members here also have interest in maps drafted by hand.
If this is your first visit, be sure to check out the FAQ. You will have to register before you can post or view full size images in the forums.

... and here I was going post about this today. Scooped by myrkul
I'm glad you like the map mykul. Thanks to you guys here for the comments about the map in the later stages. This will be a three parter that will go up over the course of the week. I'll see about pdfing the tutorial at the end and get it up in the tutes section here.
The contact with the newbieDM blog came up through the CG and I'm sure you'll notice the nice fat link to the CG right at the top of the post
The second part is up today, you can find it here:
... That you'd be on here.
But it's a great map, and I wanted to make sure that everyone saw it. Knew I'd goofed when I saw today's post (part 2), and it included a link back here.
One question: How long did it take to get the full, finished map? I'd hate to spend half a day building a detailed map, with light, shadows, and all the trimmings, only to have the PCs decide not to bite the Plot hook. Maybe I just plan too far in advance.
And one... Criticism? comment? I donno... but, How are the PCs supposed to get to that other tunnel? it's 50 feet above a pool of Lava. That's gotta be one brutal Jump check.
They can climb down, jump the lava (they can do it with a couple of 5' jumps) and climb up the other side. They could also use ropes and grappling hooks, short distance fly abilities (for example from complete mage or the 4e sorceror abilities). So there should be a way they can get across.
As for time, about an hour (maybe a little more if you include the layout design and thinking time) to get to the point at the end of this tutorial I guess? The lava took a little longer. But if your players don't bite a plot hook involving a dragon's lair then you need to get yourself some braver players
And the final section is up. I'll pdf it and get it up over here some time later this week.
Thank you for posting the link to this tutorial. I was able to follow it and create a passable map to import into 3d virtual tabletop, for my pathfinder game. I blew away my players when I unveiled my tablet and said, you are here.... Thank you again

Previously codenamed "Wayne," Tegra 4 is based around a quad-core ARM Cortex-A15 CPU with 72 custom Nvidia GeForce GPU cores, this means it has six times the GPU performance of Tegra 3.
Tegra 4 also supports 4G LTE voice and data comms with an optional chipset, the fifth-generation Nvidia Icera i500 processor.
"Tegra 4 provides enormous processing power and efficiency to power smartphones and tablets, gaming devices, auto systems and PCs," said Phil Carmack, senior vice president of the Tegra business at Nvidia.
The chip has a Computational Photography Architecture, which automatically delivers high dynamic range (HDR) photos and video by fusing together the processing power of the GPU, CPU and the camera's image-signal processor.
"Its new capabilities, particularly in the area of computational photography, will help improve a whole range of existing products and lead to the creation of exciting new ones," said Carmack.
Tegra 4 consumes up to 45% less power than its predecessor, Tegra 3, in common use cases. And it enables up to 14 hours of HD video playback on phones.

The EVGA nForce4 for Intel SLI motherboard comes with a standard Phoneix Award BIOS that is commonplace on many motherboards today. The BIOS is where you can overclock your system, adjust memory settings, and change the voltage and more. EVGA modified the Award BIOS slightly by having the overclock settings in the Power User Overclock Settings section of the BIOS. Thermal Throttling options can be set in the Thermal Throttling area of the BIOS. This is to prevent damage to the CPU if the CPU overheats by throttling the CPU speed.
From the Power User Overclock Settings area you can overclock your system. The FSB range is from 790MHz-1300MHz, a wide range for the power overclocker. The DDR2 memory can be clocked from 400-1300. PCI Express frequency can be changed in this menu from 100-148.1325MHz. Unlocked CPUs can change the Multiplier in this menu as well. VCC1.4 voltage has a range from 1.4V-1.8V. Memory voltage can be set from 1.8V-2.2V. As you can see a wide variety of settings for the user are available.
I was able to overclock our Intel 670 CPU to 4.12GHz with little issue on the EVGA motherboard. This is a 10% overclock, not the greatest in the world, but a decent overclock due to the CPU we use for overclocking. Stability of the board is excellent running Memtest and SuperPi for several hours without a crash. One thing to keep in mind with installation is to install a single video card in the middle slot, or else you only get x8 performance.

Conservatives Found Another Thing to Hate – Bike Shares
New York has everything, right? That's pretty much true, including progressive thinkers who want to see a healthier population and a cleaner planet. One of the many ways New Yorkers are trying to accomplish these goals is through bike sharing, specifically through a company called Citi Bikes. The business is simple and really a no-brainer in a busy city that requires commuting. A new report suggests that conservatives are making it really tough to do the healthy thing in NYC, though.
Citi Bikes is super simple, with a minimal three step process:
1. Unlock a bike from any station by paying for the rental.
2. Ride the bike wherever you want.
3. Return the bike to any station when you're done.
Riders don't have to invest in a bike, they don't have to search for a place to lock up a bike, and they don't have to store a bike in a notoriously small New York apartment. They also get exercise and do not leave a carbon footprint behind. When I see these units set up in other cities, my first response is, "wish we had these."
While this simple plan could literally reverse so many of our country's health problems, some groups have found a way to deter such a great program. Mayor Bloomberg has already caught flak for trying to reduce soda sizes in his city, and apparently the complaints don't stop when Americans feel they might be pressured into riding a bike instead of sitting in an expensive, fume-emitting cab.

THE CAPITAL, TALLAHASSEE, Dec. 28, 2010 --
The Florida Human Relations Commission must determine whether a Hialeah hospital meets the legal definition of a public establishment so it can be determined whether it should have provided a sign language interpreter to a deaf patient, a state appeals court ruled Tuesday.
The case, before the 1st District Court of Appeal in Tallahassee, asks whether a hospital, in this case Palmetto General Hospital, is a "public accommodation" for purposes of the Florida Civil Rights Act, which prohibits discrimination in those settings determined to be public accommodations.
The plaintiff, Maura Mena, brought a discrimination complaint against the hospital and parent company Lifemark Hospitals alleging that while she was a patient at Palmetto, her request for a sign language interpreter was denied.
The Human Relations Commission, where Mena filed the complaint, dismissed it on various grounds, but primarily because it said hospitals aren't covered as public accommodations under the Civil Rights Act.
The act lists several public accommodations, and hospitals aren't on the list. But an establishment "principally engaged in selling food for for consumption on the premises" is. Mena argued that the hospital cafeteria qualified the entire hospital as a public establishment because of another section of the law which says that any establishment that has in it a public accommodation qualifies too if it "holds itself out as serving patrons of such covered establishment."
Mena, and her lawyer, Matthew Dietz, argued that Palmetto Hospital should qualify, and should have been required to provide an interpreter. Dietz and other lawyers involved in the case didn't immediately return calls for comment.
The commission has made a ruling on this issue before saying that hospitals aren't primarily engaged in selling food, even if they have a cafeteria, and therefore don't qualify.
But a three judge panel of the 1st DCA on Tuesday said whether the particular hospital is qualified depends, under the law, on whether it "holds itself out as serving patrons" of the cafeteria. And that question of fact must be answered before the court can rule, the panel said, sending the case back to the Human Relations Commission to determine the answer.
The question of whether hospitals must provide sign language interpreters has come up before in a separate case involving the same hospital, Palmetto General, but it wasn't decided because it was settled out of court.
The National Association of the Deaf filed that complaint, Cuevas v. Palmetto General, in which the plaintiff, a woman who was in the hospital giving birth, was denied the ability to communicate because there was no sign language interpreter. The case was settled in 2008.

What Can I Do About an Erroneous IRS Tax Lien?
If an erroneous IRS federal tax lien has been placed on your property, you have several options.
Internal Revenue Code Section 6325(a)(1) requires the IRS to release a Notice of Federal Tax Lien imposed for a tax debt that is either already satisfied or legally unenforceable. The IRS is required to issue a Certificate of Release on its own and without a request from the taxpayer within a month of determining that the release of the lien is warranted. If the IRS knowingly or negligently fails to release a lien, Internal Revenue Code Section 7432 permits taxpayers to sue for damages.
An erroneous tax lien also may be discharged, pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 6325(b). In a discharge, specified property is removed from the tax lien, but the lien may remain in effect against other pieces of property not discharged. Property will be discharged from a federal tax lien upon a taxpayer's request if: (1) the total value of the taxpayer's other property, minus encumbrances with priority over the tax lien, is at least double the tax liability at issue; (2) the IRS is paid the value of its interest in the property to be discharged (if there is any such value); or (3) if the property is to be sold with the IRS's lien attaching to the proceeds in the same manner and with the same priority as the lien itself.
It also may be possible to obtain a Certificate of Nonattachment from the IRS, which states that specified properties are not included in the tax lien. This can be helpful if you are seeking to refinance a house which is not included in the lien, but are having difficulty doing so because of the federal tax lien on other pieces of property.
Another option, provided by Internal Revenue Code Section 6323(j), is for an erroneous tax lien to be withdrawn by the IRS if; 1) the filing of the lien was premature or otherwise not in accordance with administrative procedures; 2) the taxpayer previously agreed to repay the debt in installment payments; 3) withdrawing the notice would facilitate repayment of the debt; or 4) withdrawal of the lien would be in the best interests of both the taxpayer and the government. A withdrawal of a tax lien eliminates all public notice of the lien.
The information on this page is meant to provide a general overview of the law. The laws in your state and/or city may deviate significantly from those described here. If you have specific questions related to your situation you should speak with a local attorney.

I feel like I'm in a fish bowl. I took all the "wonderful" pregnancy experiences with a grain of salt when I got pregnant because I knew everyone's experience has been different. I'm finding it tougher to get by day by day now that I've hit my 6th month. I feel like a total stranger to my own body. I live with constant heartburn and most recently it's because increasily difficult to even breathe! It's make me feel so....shitty for the lack of a better word. I about balled my eyes out to DH last night because I couldn't even bend over to take off my shoes. Driving is uncomfortable. Hell just moving out of bed is uncomfortable! I can hardly been over...forget sitting on the floor and trying to get back up. I feel like a damn blimp and that I've lost my independence. I don't know what'd I'd do without DH!!
Harder to deal with day by day.
I appreciate all your support ladies.

We are all in the home stretch! Stay strong! I'm so happy you have a hubby you can turn to! Cry to him, lean on him, that's part of his job!
The one thing that I won't complain about....how awesome it is to be pregnant in "winter" - just so my hot body can breathe.
But otherwise - endless layers and bending and boots. blurg.
I said that last night "when will this be over?" 3 little months left...sigh. Haven't really slept since finding out I was preggers - it seems. I feel like a rotisserie chicken. Roll. Sleep. Wake up. Roll.
>>SO AGREE WITH YOU. I swear I wake up several times a night just to roll or TRY to roll.

When I was pregnant with my boys (11 and 2 1/2) I hardly noticed I was pregnant until the very last month. Even then, I wasn't really miserable-just anxious beyond belief. Now that I am pregnant with a girl I feel like my body is going to fall apart on me completely. And I've felt like this for about 4 months now (I'm 28w3d). I try my best to not complain-but sometimes it is just too much. My DH is so sympathetic and helpful with the boys that I just suck it up most times. In the end, I know how worth it all of this is going to be, and it really does disappear the second you hear/see your baby for the first time. Hang in there friend, there is light at the end of the tunnel. It just seems like it is 5 years away. (I tell people I'm due in May-5 years from now because that is how I feel.)

Opportunities to Get Involved
UT faculty and graduate students discuss the relationship between music and dictatorship in Argentina at a workshop featuring Professor Esteban Buch (top right), who is directeur d'études at the École des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales in Paris (February 2013). The workshop was organized by the Rapoport Center's Human Rights & the Arts Working Group.
Whether you are UT faculty, staff, a student at the professional, graduate and undergraduate level or a fellow traveler outside of UT, we invite you to join us in our mission to promote the study and practice of human rights both locally and globally. Situated at the intersection of academics and advocacy, the Rapoport Center is the place where human rights dialogue happens. We are an academic center that not only works across disciplines, but across the academic/community divide – in collaborating for creative, long-lasting change in the lives of marginalized individuals and groups. Supporting critical thinking and human rights advocacy, we therefore offer a host of academic and practical opportunites to get involved. Click on the links below or to the left for more information.
Performers from La Palma Negra, a youth dance group of displaced Afro-descendant and mestizo youth in Soacha, with members of the UT Rapoport Center delegation to Colombia. The group offers neighborhood youth a chance to recapture aspects of Afro-Colombian culture through dance, music, and education. They also openly advocate that non-Afro-Colombians join the group so that they too can learn aspects of the culture.

A government package to boost entrepreneurialism was announced last week by Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev. The Russian Finance Ministry is now working on a bill to put the intitiative into effect before the end of the year.
The package includes a two-year tax holiday for first time entrepreneurs in the manufacturing, service and research sectors. In the Far East and Eastern Siberia, the holiday will be five years.
It also promises the creation of a Federal Guarantee Fund designed to make it easier for businesses to get loans. At present 80 regional funds issue guarantees for commercial loans of up to $2.95 million when the borrower does not have sufficient collateral to satisfy the bank issuing the loan. The new fund will be established to back up the regional ones, allowing them to issue more guarantees. The government has also set aside $628 million to subsidise small businesses this year.
Another policy aimed at boosting small and medium sized businesses came into force on January 1st 2014. Now at least 15% of government contracts are reserved for small firms and not-for-profit organisations. This policy is to be extended to all contracts issued by major state-owned corporations and natural monopolies, and the proportion of contracts reserved for small businesses could increase to 25% by 2018.
These stimulus measures will also apply to foreign entrepreneurs as long as they are working independently. However, if the company was founded or funded by a foreign legal entity then it must seek Russian partners in order to qualify. If more than 25% of the venture is foreign-owned then it will not be eligible for the government's schemes.

'Blitz' seeks to catalogue species in Lackawanna State Park
BENTON TWP. — A gaggle of biological experts and naturalists descended on Lackawanna State Park on Friday afternoon, kicking off a 24-hour "bio blitz," a challenge to catalog as many different species in the park as possible.
Near Kennedy Creek, Penn State Worthington Scranton professors Dave Byman, Ph.D., and Meg Hatch, Ph.D., set up traps to catch small mammals — mice, chipmunks and shrews.
"You've got to come back (in the) morning for the exciting part, when we check the traps," Dr. Hatch said.
Farther along the creek, Keystone College professor Jerry Skinner, Ph.D., and another volunteer stretched a dragnet between them, creating an impassable barrier for fish. They hadn't found any so far, only crayfish after crayfish.
Upstream from them, University of Scranton professor Janice Voltzow, Ph.D., helped a group of young volunteers collect and organize aquatic macroinvertebrates, small species of insects, mollusks, arachnids and annelids that live in water.
This effort to catalog as many plants, animals and fungi as possible is a first for Lackawanna State Park, environmental education specialist Angela Lambert said. Previous inventories have cataloged only one set of organisms at a time.
Park staff can use the species inventory to adjust their management efforts, she said. For example, if they find a threatened or endangered species during the blitz, they can make adjustments to how the public uses its habitat to protect it.
She and the other biologists invite the public to join them today to learn from the experts.
The blitz continues with an early morning bird walk at 7 a.m., checking the small mammal traps from 7 to 9, plant identification lessons from 9 to 11:30, insect capture and identification using nets from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m., and netting and identifying fish using seines from 1:30 to 2:30.
At 3, participants will reveal how many species they logged during the blitz.

Originally published in 1970, Roald Dahl's Fantastic Mr. Fox tells the story of the Fox Family. After twelve years, the Fox Family's quiet home life proves too much for Mr. Fox's natural animal instincts.

BERKELEY - Linebacker Wendell Hunter of California, tackle Adam Snyder of Oregon and kicker Drew Dunning of Washington State have been named Bank of America Higher Standards Pac-10 Football Players of the Week.
Hunter, a junior from Carson, Calif., led the California defense in the Golden Bears' 31-24 upset win at Illinois. Hunter had a team-high 15 tackles, nine solo, including three quarterback sacks (-26 yards) and broke up a pass. His third quarterback sack came on the final play of the game and preserved the win for the Bears as Illinois was threatening from the Cal 8-yard line. The Cal defense posted a total of five quarterback sacks (-40).
Snyder, a junior from Whittier, Calif., was a leader on the Oregon offensive line that paced the Ducks to a 31-27 upset win against No. 3-ranked Michigan. Oregon rushed for 127 yards and the line allowed only one quarterback sack against a Michigan defense that entered the game leading the nation in scoring defense (3.3) and ranked third in total defense (215.3). The Oregon offense put up 380 yards total offense, had no turnovers, and the Ducks held a time of possession advantage over the Wolverines.
Dunning, a senior from Issaquah, Wash., was perfect on five-of-five field goal attempts in Washington State's 23-13 win against New Mexico. Dunning connected on three-pointers from 37, 36, 23, 21 and 49 yards in single-handedly outscoring the Lobos. The five field goals is a Washington State single-game record and just one shy of the Pac-10 record. Dunning has connected on 13-of-14 field goal attempts this season. It marks the second time this year Dunning has been named Pac-10 special teams player of the week.
Others nominated for offensive player of the week honors were quarterbacks Derek Anderson of Oregon State and Matt Kegel of Washington State, running backs Rich Alexis of Washington and Kenneth Tolon of Stanford and wide receiver Geoff McArthur of California. Also nominated on defense were safeties Oshiomogho Atogwe of Stanford, Jason Shivers of Arizona State and Darrell Brooks of Arizona, tackles Robby Valenzuela of Oregon, Terry Johnson of Washington and Jeremey Williams of Washington State and linebacker Richard Seigler of Oregon State.

The ARC Of Greater
The ARC of Greater Manchester (referred to in this document as "The ARC) is an organization of parents, siblings, and other interested persons who have concerns for people with developmental disabilities. We exist to serve those individuals. Normally people have inherent skills to deal with daily living. Our children, and others in our care, need help with many of these skills to help them survive. The needs extend further. Our children, young people and older adults need help in planning for the future when they have no family to depend on.
The ARC is affiliated with the National ARC. We can draw upon its resources, and share in the benefits of a large organization. The benefits include the availability of life insurance for our members and advocacy relating to laws and regulations regarding people who are developmentally disabled.
The goals of The ARC are to do "whatever is necessary" to assist in the provision of basic needs and improvement of the living standards of people with developmental disabilities. We endeavor to provide them with a life offering dignity and self-respect.
The ARC is not an area agency, and we do not wish to take the place of one. The efforts and goals of The ARC are primarily directed towards the members of the organization, although some of our activities extend into the larger community. Achievement of these goals can occur only with the participation of the membership. Financial support for meeting these goals will be solicited from the communities.
The goals of The ARC of Greater Manchester include the following:
Legislative Advocacy:
One of the prime reasons for creation of The ARC is to serve as an advocating group. Laws and regulations concerning developmentally disabled people are constantly being created and changed. We MUST be aware of these to be an active force in ensuring maximum benefits to the developmentally disabled. Our efforts are primarily directed towards informing members of The ARC of pending legislation and changes to existing laws and towards the education of legislatures regarding the needs of our members.
Formal and Informal Social Activities:
A major goal of the ARC of Greater Manchester is to assure that the social lives of people with developmental disabilities are as complete as possible. Accordingly, the ARC of Greater Manchester will continue to sponsor, in conjunction with the Area Agency and other interested organizations, a series of dances during the year. We will continue to sponsor other activities such as a bowling league, summer camp scholarships, hayrides and Special Olympics teams that will enrich the lives of the developmentally disabled.
Independent Living:
It is the belief of the ARC that people with developmental disabilities live in conditions that nurture dignity and self-respect. On a practical level, this means that they should have a place to live with bed, a chair and a table. There have been, and are, people with developmental disabilities living in the Greater Manchester area that do not have these basic amenities. A goal of the ARC is to provide these. In addition, there should be basic accouterments for those who live in independent settings. These could
include a radio, a TV, or even a tablecloth for a kitchen table. A goal of the ARC is to provide some of these items which can change a "place to live" into a "home.
Transition to Adulthood:
There are early intervention programs for the very young. There are programs to carry the child through the school years. The law requires these. At the age of twenty-one, entitlement ends, the laws mandating care stop. The young adult can get on a "Waiting List" for services, but there is no law requiring that services be provided. One goal of the ARC is to work with the school system, the Family Support Council and any others needed to develop a transition program for people who are close to leaving the school system and entering into adulthood. The intent is to smooth out the road they will be traveling, and lessen the stresses of the transition.
Other Goals:
Some long-term goals (they might be considered to be dreams) are envisioned for the ARC of Greater Manchester. However, financial and legal circumstances and the lack of willing workers force the organization to keep them in abeyance. These goals include:
A "Drop-in: Center
Funding Dreams for individuals
Transportation for Individuals
After-School Care
Summer Care
Help for Low-income Individuals
The presentation of the goals for the ARC is not in any order of importance or priority. Some goals are more basic than others. We understand that the probability of meeting all the goals is doubtful. However, to be a viable organization, we must have a sense of where we are, and where we want to go. The goals listed here are not written in stone – They can and should be reviewed periodically and changed, added to, or eliminated, as circumstances require. They serve as a direction for our efforts, and give us a standard to measure our success by.
Robert A. Ramsay
President, the ARC of Greater Manchester, 2003-2006

Religion, it can be argued, is the origin of branding. All religions had intangible ideology but they created physical manifestation with tangible architecture and collaterals. This comprised the genesis of branding, but without commercial give-and-take. Im naming this sanctified unification through fraternal relationships as Brand Friendship. Afterwards, when formal monarchies materialised, the monarchs emblem was the brand that symbolised his power to conquer lands and make people subservient.
Historical perspective: The commercial branding era started in Europe after the 17th century when Christianity liberalised the pursuit of literature, science, art and technology. Following Britishs 1760 Industrial Revolution, European inventors Louis Vuitton and Cartier, among others, manifested their brands through luxury products that carried their seals. Inventors such as Karl Benz and Ettore Bugatti shaped precision engineering automobile brands. Henri Nestle created milk powder and condensed milk for infants as substitute for breast milk. European brand creators promoted brands prominently in luxury and sophisticated engineering categories, not in mass scale production. Thats possibly because scale was not paramount in Europe of small independent nations.
Branding of giant companies: North Americas cowboy branding culture had no monarchical influence, hence a different approach. Hot stamping of American Wild West farm animals was done to identify different owners. The 19th and 20th centuries saw an American shift towards inventive power by distinctive inventors like Proctor & Gamble (P&G), Thomas Edison (GE), Graham Bell (telephone), James Casey (UPS), George Eastman (Kodak), Charles Flint (IBM) and Henry Ford. They started with commercial trademark which extended to stylised graphic branding up to 1960. Giant American companies established their power through such symbols. They mastered mass market production and masterminded the religion of commercial branding with mass-scale industrialisation while providing affordable pricing through inventive mass production processes like the Taylor system at Ford Motor Company. The two World Wars helped American business to penetrate brands globally.
So clearly, both in Europe and America, the branding culture started with inventors.
Departure of digi-tech: From 1970s, entrepreneurs like Bill Gates and Steve Jobs started digital interface with customers. That stretched to a new branding dimension from end-1990s with Google, Facebook and YouTube, among others. This led to uncontrollable mass production of digitally-driven products and services with cost reduction and no industrial frontier. These created a huge disruption of absolute behavioural change in human beings, what I call the departure of Brand Friendship in commercial world.
The customer is in command today: Digital

Every November 11th ( or the nearest publication day ) since 1999, I have had this piece published in a magazine somewhere, and/or have posted it on a blog site, and even printed it and posted it up in Spanish bars … anywhere where people can be reminded of the significance of this day.
Today of course, there are no veterans of the Great War left to totter, or to be wheeled along past the Cenotaph, as there were when the idea for this piece came to me; but mea culpa, I didn't go ahead and finish it at that time. I am just not inclined edit it now, and I trust that you'll forgive the minor deception of referring to those who no longer exist – as I trust you will forgive what you might consider my undue concentration on the Great War of 1914/18.

I read today that, having dealt religion a death-blow with his new bus advertising campaign, Professor Richard Dawkins is going to turn his attention to fairy stories. He is going to write a book to convince us all that Cinderella, Goldilocks, Harry Potter and the rest of our childhood heroes have never really existed.
Don't fool yourselves for one minute: he won't stop there. These battles with religion and literature are just the opening skirmishes of a far more important campaign. The professor's true target is neither God, nor the Fairy Godmother, but someone much more powerful and with many more supporters than either of them – FATHER CHRISTMAS!
We must act now to head off this threat. Even though the toy industry is far richer and more influential than the church, it will not be able to stand against the triumphant march of Science and Reason. Children of the world, unite!

You could make a case for us to be ahead of BYU but their 4 commitments to our 2 is what put them ahead of us. Alabama deserves their ranking.
Because it totally matters what ESPN thinks...
I was in complete agreement. Then I looked at ESPN Basketball Recruiting - Player Rankings - ESPN. Two top 100 guys (at 83 and 94) and we're probably not even close to the top 10. Maybe inside the top 25. Look at the lists for the top 20 that are still available, we're on none of those. I don't know of any other ESPN top 100 guys we're in on and/or have a chance at getting.
I think 2013 will be a rock solid class, and only up from there!

ESPN is a big group of morons, They also have us 9th in the big 12 power rankings pre season. In my mind id say we are 4th and could be a sleeper to contend for 1st or 2nd but ofcourse i like us being underestimated......AGAIN.
are we a top 10 team? ................not yet
I'll worry about this (only a little) when our class is filled out.
ISU should definitely be rated ahead of BYU. One ranked guy and three guys that haven't even been rated should be below ISU's two top 100 guys. When all is said and done though I anticipate them ranked ahead of BYU unless they get Jabari Parker
"But you know that old thing, live fast, die young? Not my way. Live fast, sure, live too bloody fast sometimes, but die young? Die old. That's the way- not orthodox, I don't live by "the rules" you know." - David Brent
One of BYU's non-rated guys will be top 100 very soon. He's been tearing it up. We are probably barely outside the top 10.
I get the whole who cares attitude, but positive press and mentions on the recruiting trail can only help with new recruits.
Two guys in the 90s does not deserve a top 10 ranking.
We were 8th in that same poll some time in the past couple weeks.

Kelly Clarkson Praises New American Idol Judges
February 19, 2013 03:00 PM by Lisa Princ
With all the drama and tension that has taken place this season on American Idol's judging panel, it's no wonder that so many show alumni have been quick to bash the series. However, the show's very first winner, Kelly Clarkson was one of the few who actually praised the singing the competition and the judges. What did she have to say?
With the drama and tension between Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey this season on American Idol, it's no wonder that show alumni such as Clay Aiken, have dissed the series, claiming that it is no longer about the talent, hinting that the panel has stolen the spotlight. Another alum that was also not kind, was Jennifer Hudson, who claimed that Idol has "run its course", and "should go out while it's still on top," with nothing positive to say about the changes. However, the show's original winner, Kelly Clarkson had much nicer things to say when asked about the judges this season.
"The show needed to be freshened up a bit," Clarkson said recently, according to Perez Hilton. But it wasn't just the show itself that Clarkson dished positively on. In fact, she had some positive comments about the judges, or more so, Mariah Carey. "I'm a huge fan of Mariah Carey. If I had seen her as one of the judges when I was trying out, that would have been so cool," Clarkson continued.
What do you think of Clarkson's positive comments about American Idol this season? Do you agree or disagree with her? We know you have an opinion and we want to hear it. Let us know your thoughts by posting a comment below.

Are you kidding me. Nicki must not have had sex for a long time to go after 18 yr. olds on Idol. She has no morals, no talent and no credentials to be a judge of talent especially singing since she's a rapper , need I say more.

Nicki is gross; no talent and that awaful whiney voice. She has to go before the show will be worthy of watching again.
