The post How a National Trails Day Tradition Begins appeared first on Joshua Tree National Park Association.]]>
The American Hiking Society launched National Trails Day over twenty-five years ago. The holiday promotes trail systems across the United States by encouraging groups to get out and hike, bike, run, and volunteer on trails. It is celebrated coast to coast every year on the first Saturday in June.
This year, National Trails Day fell just one day after the 70th commemoration of the D-Day Invasion. With this on their minds, Desert Institute volunteers started their hike on the Crown Prince Lookout Trail this morning. It is one of the few trails in Joshua Tree National Park that harkens back to the days when General Patton trained troops in the Mojave Desert.
On the Crown Prince Lookout Trail, hikers retrace the same path as soldiers training and serving during World War II, following an old jeep road that ends at an aircraft lookout post.
On the hike today, stands of California buckwheat (Eriogonum fasciculatum) lined the trail, puffy and looking like clouds. Desert woolly star (Eriastrum eremicum), one of the last spring annuals to bloom, also sprinkled the landscape with purple. The group enjoyed sweeping views and clear blue skies at the top of the lookout, gazing toward Pinto Mountain, the Pinto Basin, the edge of the Wonderland of Rocks, including the Astrodome, Queen Valley, and Queen Mountain.
The two-hour hike ended with an impromptu toast. With camelback hoses in hand, they toasted to National Trails Day and to being outside enjoying Joshua Tree National Park.
Our volunteers hope to make today's inaugural National Trails Day hike a tradition. There was something special about being on the trail in support of a bigger cause and in solidarity with hikers nationwide. National Trails Day is a time to treasure being outside — something this group loves to do.
Are you interested in joining our team of volunteers as a Field Class Representative? The next training session is Sep. 5-7, 2014. Visit our volunteer page for more information.

The post Fruits of the Desert appeared first on Joshua Tree National Park Association.]]>
Fruits on some desert plants can be as delightful as the flowers. Take the rhatany (Krameria grayii) plants for example. The plant's round yellow fruits brandish shiny purple spikes. Depending on your age, they may remind you of the mines in the old Minesweeper Game.
Walking around the park looking for fruits, you will probably begin to notice an uncanny abundance of beans drooping from trees, shrubs, and plants. Here is a short list of the legumes you might find in the park:
Berries are ripening around the park, too. Look for the boxthorn shrub's (Lycium andersonii) bright red berries on the Boy Scout Trail. They look like the bulbs on a string of Christmas tree lights. In Smith Water Canyon, the Split Rock Trail, and areas leading out to Twin Tanks (as well as many other places around the park), the sumac bush's (Rhus aromatic) lemony berries can be seen from afar, glowing red, orangey, or white. Plus, there is the coyote's favorite snack: the powdery blue berries of the juniper tree (Juniperus californica). Thick-leaved ground cherries (Physalis crassifolia), which resemble tomatillos, can also be spotted in rocky areas.
Here are some other fruits you shouldn't miss: fuzzy desert almonds (Prunus fasciculate) and, of course, the fleshy pods on Joshua trees (Yucca brevifolia) and Mojave yuccas (Yucca schidigera).
As the summer arrives, keep an eye out for cactus fruits, too! Already this season, we have seen hedgehog cactus (Echinocereus engelmannii) fruits ripening in the sun.
To help you spot desert fruits, we have created a new Pinterest board with pictures of all the fruits mentioned in this blog post.
Inside the park's borders, please remember that any collection of vegetation is prohibited. It is important to leave these fruits for desert wildlife. Birds, rodents, and larger mammals will rely on their nutrients to get through the harsh summer.

The post The Season Finale – Plus a Sneak Preview appeared first on Joshua Tree National Park Association.]]>
Ted Reeves' geology field class was held over Mother's Day weekend. Exploring the fault lines in and around Joshua Tree National Park was an adventure, but it was made special by a unique group of all-women students. There was even a mother-daughter pair among the eight women who participated and volunteered in the class.
This was a successful and fun spring at the Desert Institute. Over 463 students joined us to learn about the park, and we provided 503 hours of classes about the desert. For the first time, we also had three citizen science classes and a women's "Get-Away" weekend.
We not only covered many miles in Joshua Tree National Park, but on numerous occasions, we also ventured outside the park borders to understand the world around Joshua Tree. This included trips to the Big Morongo Canyon Preserve, the Mojave National Preserve, a Joshua tree research site in Nevada, intaglios in Blythe and Needles, and rock art sites in the Coachella Valley.
Throughout the season, thanks to a dedicated team of volunteers, all of our classes went off safely. There were a few memorable run-ins with a cholla cactus, but at the end of the day, our volunteers always ensured a safe and fun learning environment. They make the outdoor classroom safe, and we could not run such high quality programs without them.
Always, at the end of the season, there is much to reflect on and even more to look forward to. We are going to be working over the summer break to bring you a great lineup of fall courses.
Many year-round favorites are staying on the schedule, and some old favorites are returning. Look for our desert snakes class, the return of family classes, and, if you missed last year's campfire cuisine, there will be a chance to go gourmet again in the fall.
We are also introducing six new courses, several new instructors, and classes over the holidays. In the arts, there will be two new writing classes and a brand new iPhone photography course. If your are looking forward to new science classes, we are offering a lichen field class for the first time, and we will be joining other 21st century naturalists with a course using iNaturalist.
Stay cool this summer, and stay tuned for more news about fall courses. We enjoyed spending the spring with you, and we look forward to seeing you in the fall.

The post National Park Week – Three Things to Do Every Day (Part 3) appeared first on Joshua Tree National Park Association.]]>
John Muir said it best in Our National Parks:
Nature is ever at work building and pulling down, creating and destroying, keeping everything whirling and flowing, allowing no rest but in rhythmical motion, chasing everything in endless song out of one beautiful form into another.
The last weekend of National Park Week is here, and there is a lot happening in Joshua Tree National Park. We hope you enjoy our last installment of three things to do every day in the park, and if you have ideas of your own, we invite you to join the conversation on Facebook or in the comments section below.

The post National Junior Ranger Day appeared first on Joshua Tree National Park Association.]]>
For many children, becoming a Junior Ranger is an unforgettable experience. The program immerses kids in the outdoors. They are asked to observe, listen, smell, and hypothesize, while recording their experiences with the natural world in an activity booklet. The culminating moment in the Junior Ranger Program is when kids take the Junior Ranger Oath and receive the official golden badge.
Every park has a unique Junior Ranger Program. At Joshua Tree National Park, a talented team of rangers in the Education Division designed the activities. The program is creative and engaging, and completing it is one of the best ways for kids, ages four to fourteen, and adults to enjoy the park together.
From receiving the booklet to pinning on the badge, becoming a Junior Ranger is also completely free. The only thing that you and a future Junior Ranger have to do is come visit the park. For the upcoming Junior Ranger Day, we have put together a list of tips and information to help you plan a special day in the park.
Where to Start – Visitor Center. Pick up the free Junior Ranger activity booklet at a visitor center. A ranger or volunteer will go over the activities with you and your child. The booklet has three age-group-specific sections and one section for all ages.
Time – Plan for at least a Half Day. We recommend making a day of it and concentrating your visit on the 36-mile drive between the North (Twentynine Palms) and West (Joshua Tree) Entrances. This is a beautiful drive, and there are dozens of exhibits and nature trails to explore.
Where to Go – Best Short Trail. The Hidden Valley Nature Trail (1-mile loop) is a well-maintained flat trail that meanders among rock formations, Joshua trees, pinyon pines, cacti, and rock climbers. This is a great place to complete several pages in the activity booklet thanks to the diverse community of flora and fauna along the trail.
Where to Go – Best Longer Trail. The Split Rock Trail (2-mile loop) is an exciting place to go for interesting rock formations and cacti. Tell your prospective Junior Ranger to look for a tulip-shaped rock, a thumbs-up rock, and Face Rock. There are Joshua trees and pinyon pines (natural habitats for desert animals) along the trail too.
Where to Go – Exhibit. The Oasis Visitor Center's geology and ecology exhibit is a wonderful introduction to the park. After picking up the activity booklet, be sure to check out the exhibit room (touring an exhibit is an activity in the booklet, page 5). You could also ask a volunteer or ranger about watching the park's 25-minute video in the auditorium, or take the stroller-friendly paved trail around the Oasis of Mara (.5 mile). Fun fact: keep an eye out for the oasis' resident roadrunner.
Don't Miss – Page 30. This fun activity is required for all ages. It is at the end of booklet and can be easy to overlook.
What is That? – Take Pictures. As you travel through the park, take pictures of plants and animals you are unsure about. Rangers and volunteers can help your child identify them when you bring the finished booklet to a visitor center.
Where to Go – We're Finished! Take a finished booklet to any entrance station, ranger station, or visitor center. We recommend the visitor centers for the best experience of taking the Junior Ranger Oath.
The Reward for Hard Work. Get your cameras ready when your child reviews his or her finished booklet with a ranger. You will want to capture their smile as they take the Junior Ranger Oath and receive a badge. Families that complete the Junior Ranger program at Joshua Tree National Park also receive a special gift that is unique to this park.
At the Joshua Tree National Park Association, one of our many ways of supporting the park is providing the materials that kids receive for free as a part of the Junior Ranger Program. Membership and donation dollars help with every one of these experiences.

ASPB Awards 15 Summer
Undergraduate Research Fellowships
Five others named
as honorable mentions
ROCKVILLE, Md. --
The American Society of Plant Biologists (ASPB) has named the recipients of its
2011 Summer Undergraduate Research
Fellowship (SURF) awards. The SURF
program assists promising undergraduate students so they can conduct meaningful
plant biology research early in their college careers. Mentoring is a key
element of the program, and a solid mentoring plan is an important part of
proposal; SURF students must work with a mentor who is an ASPB member.
In honoring the
recipients, ASPB President Nicholas Carpita said, "As we start our second
decade of ASPB's hugely successful SURF awards program, I congratulate not only
the awardees but also the drive and dedication of its great mentors."
In addition to
promoting undergraduate research in plant science, the fellowships support each
SURF student's presentation of a poster at ASPB's annual meeting in the year
following the research project. As such, the students listed below will conduct
their research this summer and present their findings at Plant Biology 2012,
which will be held July 20–24, 2012, in Austin, Texas.
Amy Clore, who cochairs
the SURF program with Kenneth Helm, explained that, "by funding these students,
all of whom have incredible potential, ASPB hopes to directly contribute to the
next generation of plant biologists."
SURF proposals
are reviewed in two separate categories, research universities and primarily undergraduate
institutions. Of the 115 undergraduate applicants, fifteen undergraduates were
selected as SURF recipients and five received honorable mentions.
Last year's SURF
recipients will present posters at Plant Biology 2011, August
6–10, 2011, in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Applications for next year's SURF competition will open in late 2011.

Recipe Comments
I want to make a white chocolate cake with strawberries
I have agave sweetener, eggs, flour, honey, milk, baking soda, sugar, cinnamon, sweetened condensed milk, and some other things. Any ideas? Just making something for tonight's dessert.
There's a vegan bakery near me and their cakes are $40+ for a birthday cake,
so that's out of the picture. Also, I'm allergic to carrageenan, so I can't have
vegan cream cheese or vegan ice cream if the recipes call for that.
And my birthday is tomorrow, so it would be wonderful is you could respond soon!
Thank you
Of just eating a banana and some strawberries whole?
I was going to make a red velvet cake but I don't make to dye my friend's insides red. And what is the difference between red velvet then say, yellow or white cake? Should I just make a red velvet cake without the food coloring?
Sugar Pie, you forgot to add the ingredients for the cake. If you re-post with the ingredients that would be greatly appreciated.

Hazleton teen from Ecuador went from speaking no English to excelling in classroom, on course
Q. What successful parenting strategy can you share with other parents?
A. Father (speaking on camera through a computer from Florida, where he was doing research on children with epilepsy): The parents have to learn how to love the kids. If we let the kids do what they want, they're going to do it. If we let them watch TV, they don't work. Say (to them), "It's not time to watch TV. You have to work."
Mother: "We always have believed in all of them, tell them they're smart, they are capable of anything as long as they work and keep trying."
Q. At what moment did you realize your child was special?
A. Father: Gema was always good with grades. Although born in the United States, Gema was a toddler when her family moved to Ecuador, where she grew up speaking Spanish and attended kindergarten and first grade. She knew how to multiply before coming to Hazleton, where she enrolled in second grade even though, because her birthday is in December, she was 6, and most of her classmates were 7.
Q. What is the greatest challenge you've encountered in raising your child?
A. Adapting to the culture of the United States without losing their heritage.
Mother: When we moved to Hazleton, people had a different way of thinking, interacting. We are from Ecuador. A lot of countries speak Spanish, but every one has its own culture
Father: I said you have to speak Spanish at the table when we eat. They won't lose their culture.

At Haven, In Our Spa
May 25, 2016 9:01 AM | By Megan Caron | No Comments
Spring and summer mean we can show off more skin! The warmer seasons mean we also have to protect and repair our skin too. We asked Angela, manager at The Spa at Fearrington, what skincare beauty tool or product she can't live without? Here's what she shared:
"The Pro-Collagen Super Serum Elixir is a must for your daily routine," said Angela. "This concentrated anti-aging super serum elixir significantly reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Your skin will feel firmer with improved elasticity and superior hydration leaving your complexion visibly smoother, plumper and looking more youthful. I pair this with the Pro-Collagen Marine Cream for the ultimate anti-aging cream to tackle those wrinkles. The combination of both of these products will help you to see dramatic results in just two weeks."
Make sure you stop by The Spa at Fearrington to schedule a Ruby Grapefruit treatment or pick up the Pro-Collagen Super Serum Elixir for yourself!

On June 17, Team Blake Shelton's singer Danielle Bradbery belted out "Born to Fly" by Sara Evans on The Voice 2013 finale. Blake chose the song for Danielle, as it would be the first time we'd hear the teenager sing a full-length uptempo song.
Quickly, coach Usher said that it was an obvious choice for Danielle to go with Blake and that she's a special person. Adam Levine said that the singer's "perfection is a bit boring," as he can't criticize her sound. He went on to say that she was amazing.
Finally, Blake said that he "thanked God" for Danielle coming on to the voice, and that she has him (like millions of others) wrapped around her finger — he has nothing else to say but that she's great.
What did you think of Danielle's performance tonight? Tell us below!

I'm trying to use a stack object to reverse the order of words (not letters) in a sentence. I'm fairly sure that the split and push methods are working, but I can only get the first word (i.e. the first word in the original sentence), to be displayed.
I have the following code:
Private Sub btnReverse_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnReverse.Click Dim s As New Stack Dim sentence, word, reverse As String Dim words As Array sentence = txtOriginalOrder.Text words = sentence.Split(" ") For Each word In words s.Push(word) Next Do txtReverseOrder.Text = s.Pop & " " Loop Until s.Count = 0 End Sub
I think the Do loop is the problem, but nothing I've tried makes any different output.
Anyone know how I can fix this?

The year is nineteen-sixty-something, and after endless millennia of watery sleep, the stars are finally right. Old R'lyeh rises out of the Pacific, ready to cast its damned shadow over the primitive human world. The first to see its peaks: an alcoholic, paranoid, and frightened Jack Kerouac, who had been drinking off a nervous breakdown up in Big Sur. Now Jack must get back on the road to find Neal Cassady, the holy fool whose rambling letters hint of a world brought to its knees in worship of the Elder God Cthulhu. Together with pistol-packin' junkie William S. Burroughs, Jack and Neal make their way across the continent to face down the murderous Lovecraftian cult that has spread its darkness to the heart of the American Dream. But is Neal along for the ride to help save the world, or does he want to destroy it just so that he'll have an ending for his book? "It's Kerouac vs. Cthulhu as the most human of writers tangles with the most inhuman horror. Move Under Ground is a wild, weird ride, and Nick Mamatas shows awesome chops as well as some sad and funky soul." - Stewart O'Nan, author of The Night Country and A Prayer for the Dying. "An intense, inspired crossbred bastard homage-cum-critique-cum-vision." - China Mieville, author of The Scar and Iron Council. "Nick's style is wickedly satirical.... His writing has bite, but it also has meaning." - The Green Man Review "Nick Mamatas is one of the liveliest and most exciting new writers around." - Thomas Beller, author of The Sleep-Over Artist "Mamatas's fiction showcases his sense of humor and fiery imagination" - Rain Taxi Review Of Books

How Long Should I Keep Financial Documents?
Posted By Jim On 03/24/2010 @ 7:04 am In Personal Finance | 39 Comments
We recently purchased a sheet-fed scanner, the Fujitsu ScanSnap S300 [3], to help organize our financial records and this purchase is easily one of the top ten I've made in my adult life. We went from having a few banker's boxes of documents down to just a few in about a week. Using a sheet-fed scanner, versus a flat-bed scanner like a copier, can save you a ridiculous amount of time and the ScanSnap will save your document into a PDF. It's a big pricey but definitely worth it if you're looking to save things electronically.
One of the benefits of storing documents electronically is that it makes the "how long should I keep financial documents?" question a bit obsolete. Data storage is cheap so you can save documents forever, but I think it's still important to know how long to keep documents because it gives you a better understanding of finances. Knowing why you should keep tax records for seven years gives you a better understanding of the tax process.
So how long should you keep financial documents? It depends.
The following documents are separated by the time you need ot keep them, excluding obvious "keep forever" documents like life insurance policies (shred when they expire) and estate planning (I suppose someone can shred these when you expire!).
You'll want to keep taxes for seven years. You have three years to file an amended return if you think you're due a larger refund and the IRS has three years to audit you if they think you made a mistake. The IRS has six years to audit you if they think you underreported income and there is no time limit if they think you failed a fraudulent return.
If you've lost old tax returns and would feel better if you had a copy, you can request a copy of past tax returns [4] from the IRS. You can get a tax return transcript for free in about two weeks by calling 1-800-829-1040 or order it by mail using Form 4506T [5]. The transcript contains almost everything from your Form 1040/1040A/1040EZ.
If given a choice, always opt for electronic or paperless statements. This helps the environment (no mailing, no paper) and it saves you a lot of time. You don't need to scan a statement if it already comes in PDF form, so save the Earth, save yourself some time, and opt for electronic statements. You can keep these statements around forever and you never know when you might need that information.
If you do opt for electronic statements, download them. If you have a copy, you never need to rely on the data storage practices (or lack thereof) of the bank, credit card, lender, broker, whatever. If you close your account, they won't keep your records. If a bank fails, they will have records but you won't have access to them (see this harrowing tale [9] from Fatwallet), making everything just a little bit harder. So if you do opt for electronic statements, remember to download them.
Did I miss an important document? I'm not yet 30 so there may be documents I'm simply not aware of!

U.S. needs to add student online privacy rules

U.S. needs to add student online privacy rules
As more of our children's education moves online, there are increased opportunities for abusing the collection of their personal data. Last month, state Senate leader Darrell Steinberg (D-Sacramento) introduced a bill that would help close a loophole in federal regulations — at least in California — in an effort to safeguard personal information of public school students. The potential privacy violations could be significant, and it makes sense for the Legislature to act now.

The Walking Dead
The Walking Dead to Release New Mobile Game Just in Time For Season 5 (VIDEO)
The Walking Dead's fourth season will soon come to a close, but AMC has given us another reason to be excited for new episodes this October! In case you missed our earlier coverage, the network has teamed up with Next Games to deliver a Walking Dead mobile game this fall. Start working out your thumbs now, because the game is slated to be released in time for all those new episodes.
This is, unfortunately, basically all we know for now, although it's supposed to have the same look and feel we've come to know and love from the franchise.
Next Games CEO Teemu Huuhtanen tells The Hollywood Reporter, "Our take on the undead survival franchise will match the against-all-odds action and moment-to-moment tension of the TV series. We want to find that sweet spot where gameplay and narrative inform and reinforce one another."
"We're thrilled to be part of this next wave of games innovation and participating in a project that — like the show itself — is in service of the fans," adds AMC president Charlie Collier.
Read more about the big news over here. Are you excited to have even more ways to dive into The Walking Dead's universe? Let us know your thoughts below!

Even before I started writing about snow sport, I was frustrated by the fact that snowboarding and skiing have two different names. It makes the whole discussion around the two colossally worthwhile ways of playing in the snow so very awkward.
Take for example the phone conversation that begins many a day on the slopes:
You want to say, "Hey bro, wanna go skiing tomorrow?"
Immediately it's hard to know what to say. He rides a snowboard, but you ski. What do you say?
If you say, "Do you want to go snowboarding?" when you'll be on skis, that doesn't sound quite right either.
Then there is the whole discussion around the sport that is unnecessarily difficult. Take for example the snow sports industry. One time I was at the SIA Tradeshow, and ended up in a conversation with a representative of a famous snowboard company. I mentioned "heli-skiing", and he immediately held up his hand, corrected me with "heli-snowboarding" and gave me a disapproving look.
It seems like things are changing, and many powder hounds, one boarded or two, have come to the conclusion that besides the physics of the ride, experientially there is really little difference between the two. Sure, skis are better for moving around in the backcountry, and snowboards are better in crud, but both are simply bitchin' ways to play in the snow.
It was a snowboarder who showed me the light. My friend Karl, a snowboarder, called me one day to see if I wanted to go shralp some pow. "Do you want to go skiing?" he asked. Then, throughout the day, when we scored an especially nice run, he'd say, "The skiing on the left was totally untracked, let's ski that again." And at the end of the day, "Killer ski day, thanks for driving!"
Later, I had a conversation about it with Karl. "Why do you call it all skiing?" I asked.
He shrugged his shoulders and replied, "It's all the same."
Years later, I met another group of people who felt the same way: the CMH staff. For them, it is all quite simply, fantastically, skiing. And why shouldn't it be; when you're going out and frolicking in bottomless fluff on some of the most spectacular ski mountains on planet earth, why get too caught up in the nomenclature.
In snow like the above photo, at CMH Cariboos, half the time you can't even tell what someone is riding on anyway. Any of you snowboarders or skiers out there have an issue with calling it all the same thing?

The King & Allen guide to ... Choosing a suit for a wedding
Choosing your wedding suit can be a difficult process. It's probably your first time (and hopefully your last!) so even the most experienced suit buyer will need advice and off the peg shops will always try and sell you whatever they have in stock.
The key to getting the wedding suit right is to make sure that the suit is stylish so that you don't look like you're wearing a business suit on your wedding day, whilst ensuring that you don't upstage the bride!
The only way to make sure you are wearing the perfect wedding suit on the day is to buy a bespoke wedding suit, and below are the main three reasons why:
- 1) A Bespoke Wedding suit = A Perfect Fit
Firstly, a bespoke wedding suit will fit you perfectly. The eyes of all your loved ones are on you – and the photos will last forever - so you need to look the best you've ever looked. The suit needs to show off your best features and hide your worst. It also needs to be a reflection of you as an individual and the wedding as an occasion. You therefore need to be measured by a professional who understands both your needs and the art of making a bespoke wedding suit.
2) A Bespoke Wedding suit = Infinite Choice
Secondly, a bespoke wedding suit offers infinite choice. We stock over 3000 cloths, so before we show you anything we find out about you and your wedding requirements. We ask about the mood of the wedding, the size, the style of it. Then we ask about practical matters – what will the temperature be like? What is the timescale, the budget etc? Mainly we ask you about you – so that when we do step to the fabric table we can help you make the perfect decision.
- 3) A Bespoke Wedding suit = Adding personalised features (for free!)
A bespoke wedding suit offers the possibility for you to add fantastic bespoke features that make the suit special to you. For example, you can have anything you like embroidered on the inside of the jacket, such as Kate & Will 29.04.11 – a lovely touch that you will treasure forever (especially when it comes to remembering anniversaries!!). Other bespoke additions include coloured stitching on the boutonnière or sleeve buttons, specially designed waistcoats, extra pockets – the list is endless. If you see something you like in a magazine or on the web bring it to your consultation – we would love to discuss your ideas.
Finally, we believe that: A bespoke wedding suit is for life – not just for your wedding!
We want you to be able to wear your bespoke suit to work or to other events in the future – and we have many ingenious ways of making this possible – without compromising on your wedding style. This offers you even better value for money.
If you would like a FREE consultation with one of our experts please do get in touch. We look forward to hearing from you.
Please contact us for advice on which will suit you the best. Book a fitting.

Creating Jobs: Reforming Unemployment Insurance in Massachusetts
As states and nations aggressively promote their business climates, the high cost of doing business in Massachusetts requires ongoing remediation for the Commonwealth to sustain its competitive advantage. While most employers are willing to absorb some higher costs in exchange for access to the Commonwealth's skilled workforce, world-class universities, and innovative culture, they demand a stable, predictable and competitive business cost climate. Unfortunately, the Commonwealth's Unemployment Insurance ("UI") tax system is the most costly system in the nation – and it is potentially costing Massachusetts thousands of jobs.
Massachusetts' UI safety net is the most generous in the nation by several measures, including eligibility and benefit duration. Massachusetts is the only state that provides 30 weeks of benefits; 48 other states provide 26 weeks. Massachusetts also allows an individual who has been working for 15 weeks in only one quarter to be eligible for the same benefits as someone who has been in the workforce for 20 years.
These two features of the Massachusetts UI system have the paradoxical effect of creating an inhibitor to job creation -- an expensive 'per job' tax. In 2010, the 'per job' tax burden due to unemployment insurance costs was $638 in Massachusetts, twice the U.S. average.

The National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) has expressed its disapproval for the proposed Rs14,000-crore Delhi-Jaipur Expressway project citing a slew of challenges, including its inability to provide funds, lack of investor interest and low traffic projections.
The NHAI asked the roads ministry to reconsider its decision to construct the proposed 265-kilometers Expressway, which was earlier envisaged on the lines of Yamuna Expressway and came up recently for fast-track clearance in the steering committee for infrastructure set up by the prime minister.
In a letter written to the secretary-roads, Vijay Chhibber , NHAI chairman R P Singh said: "The original idea of construction of the expressway with development of townships alongside is unworkable. Keeping in view the present scenario, it is unlikely that expressway will get favourable response from the market."
The expressway was part of the government's original plan of constructing 10 expressways by 2006-07.
The prime minister's steering committee on infrastructure asked the roads ministry to work on the financial model for the Delhi-Jaipur Expressway and complete the pre-feasibility study by August 15 so that the proposed project could be awarded at the earliest.
However, with the difference of opinions between NHAI, road ministry and Planning Commission, the pre-feasibility study is yet to be completed and the financial model is still not decided.
Singh said in his letter that even the per kilometer construction cost of this expressway projected is estimated to be upwards of Rs 50 crore.
"In the present juncture it is very unlikely that the private sector will be interested in making such investments."
Singh said that even after several meeting with merchant bankers, institutional lenders and developers "implementing the expressway through BOT, would be a big challenge."
He has also cited that the fall in the traffic has also raised questions on the viability of the project "even with high levels of viability gap funding."
"Out of the cess/toll allocated to NHAI, there is no likelihood of any surplus being available for expressways. In fact, for the past two years, a part of the share of the cess revenue of NHAI has been withheld by the government as also the plough-back of toll revenue, premium etc. The NHAI, therefore, has no financial resources to think of expressway projects," Singh said in the letter.
Sources said where NHAI is totally against the project citing lack of finances, road ministry is yet to decide any one particular financial model --

Bankruptcy Law
Bankruptcy Law Questions? Ask a Bankruptcy Lawyer Now.
I was a stay at home dad to our infants while my wife did 2 years of med school & two years of residency/internship.
NY Equitable Distribution law recognizes this as a my having contributed to the license & allows me to claim 50% of the total projected income due to this qualification/license over the years that my wife will work.
In our particular case , the license's values is around $1.4 million of which i am entitled to around half. (This would be paid on settlement of the financial matrimonial case, not over the years she works. She has sepearte property.)
Thanks. I would be prepared to err on the side of caution and report it (both the license and the property) if it's in question.
I am without attorneys and do not want to risk this being brought up as an issue to prevent my bankruptcy filing from going through. Due to the divorce I am being litigated against in various court's and do not need more issues to contend with.
Hi JACustomer,
1) The jointly held property goes on Schedule A. The mortgage for that property - if it is also in your name - goes on Schedule D, and on Schedule H (assuming your wife's name is XXXXX XXXXX the mortgage).
2) The contingent claim for 50% of your wife's medical degree goes on line 17 of Schedule B.
I think this is what you wanted to know. If not, please let me know.Thank you!
Ok. So I understand that I need to file both these assets. Part of my question was as well whether I may state that these are contested claims (both the joint property and the claim for 50% of the license)

Electric company jolts feds with first round win in Obamacare fight
Healthcare Mandate
Non-profits and Christian colleges are not the only organizations successfully pushing back against the contraceptive mandate in the Affordable Care Act. A Florida federal district court ruled Tuesday that for-profit Beckwith Electric of Largo, Fla., has religious protections offered by the First Amendment and the Religious Freedom Restoration Act.
U.S. District Judge Elizabeth Kovachevich issued a preliminary injunction allowing the electric company to avoid covering emergency contraceptives under Obamacare.
The Tampa Tribune quoted a jubilant Thomas Beckwith, owner and CEO of Beckwith Electric: "I fought the law and the Lord won!"
The gumption to fight for religious freedom runs through Beckwith's blood. In 1626, Beckwith's ancestors "endured the hardships of the lengthy and storm-ridden voyage to America on a 40-foot boat" after fleeing religious persecution in England. He also has family that fought for the Connecticut Militia in the Revolutionary War.
In 1967, Beckwith's parents started a family business out of their garage in Illinois, with financing from his grandfather. That business grew into what is now Beckwith Electric, which employs 163 full-time employees. The company is a secular, for-profit corporation that operates in consistency with Beckwith's Southern Baptist beliefs.
He arranges for corporate chaplains to counsel and help employees with family issues. Beckwith Electric also donates to various charities, including New Life Solutions' Family Ministries, which is a "Christ-centered ministry offering hope, help, and healing for women, teens and families by promoting healthy lifestyle choices and relationships."
On March 12, 2013, Beckwith filed suit against the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) stating that the mandate is a "direct violation of conscience" and desecrates the Southern Baptist faith, requiring services that are capable of killing innocent human life. Beckwith Electric was the 50th entity to sue HHS over the contraceptive mandate. The company faced fines of $6 million per year.
Beckwith Electric's insurance plan provides for anything that prevents conception, he said on Tuesday: "I cover IUDs that prevent conception. I cover birth control pills, maternity benefits. This is a powerful insurance policy. Where I draw the line is three [drugs]; they call them emergency contraception, but it's deceitful because they're not contraception. … They kill an innocent human life."
Kovachevich wrote in the ruling, "The purpose of the right to exercise religion was to secure to all individuals the liberty of conscience without government interference. What happens, then, when the individual chooses to participate in free enterprise? Does this liberty of conscience travel with an individual in his or her commercial endeavors as a shareholder of a corporation? This court believes it does."

Canoe trailers are wheeled devices used to carry and transport canoes. They are usually pulled from behind and hold the canoe face down. Most canoe trailers have two wheels supporting a pair of bars, on which the canoe rests during transport. A long handle extends from the holders, allowing the trailer to be pulled along.
Single canoe trailers Single canoe trailers are designed to hold one canoe at a time. The canoe is usually placed along the pull bar, supported by two cradles. Some models have adjustable cradles to support different hull shapes, and can also double as launching dollies. Multiple canoe trailers Multiple canoe trailers can hold two or more trailers. They are made up of tree racks standing on wheeled bottom frames. The canoes are supported by the bars on the tree racks and are usually secured by straps.
Durability: Choose a canoe trailer that can handle the weight of your canoe. Look for those made of heavy-duty metals such as steel or aluminum. Make sure the wheels can go over all types of terrains.
Protection: Look for a canoe trailer with padded holders to protect your canoe from scratches and other surface damage. Make sure there are no screws or sharp edges sticking out.

Unless he comes in like Wes--then I'm all for him playing. If he shows up on campus at 6-7 185...
I've talked to some more people, one person who usually is spot on said he isn't much other than an athlete, but several other people said he is a very good ballhandler. I don't know if he was off the day the one person I talked to, or if he just really improved.
I thought it was already a fact, given his stats, that he was a very good 3pt shooter?

In March last year, French-European restaurant Le Cirque popped up for a night in Mumbai at The Leela. With some of their signature dishes such as scallops thermidor and slow-cooked lamb saddle on the menu, the evening, hosted by The Leelas Italian restaurant Stella, was a huge success.
Looking back today, it was perhaps an attempt on part of the Andheri East hotel to test waters before bringing down the reputed New York eatery to town. The restaurant, which arrived in Delhi in 2011, is now set to open in Mumbai. This Saturday, a 65-seater Le Cirque will replace Stella with chef Matteo Boglione at the helm.
The New York eatery, which opened in 1974, is on an expansion spree in Asia, and Mumbai was a destination they had been considering. The restaurant, which will be open only for dinner, is a much smaller property than its Delhi counterpart. Nevertheless, the team at The Leela promises a customised bar and a well-stocked wine-cellar with over 250 Italian and French wines as well as the option of a private dining room. Signature dishes such as the Lobster Salad, Spaghetti Primavera and ingredients such as black truffles and foie gras will be the highlights of the menu.

Man who State claimed ordered to abuse, rape top Hezbollah member Mustafa Dirani during inquiry to find MIA Ron Arad is father of three from centeral Israel, Doron Zahavi
Naama Cohen-Friedman
Published: 12.31.13, 09:48 / Israel News
Naama Cohen-Friedman
The Tel Aviv District Court authorized the publication of the masked man as Doron Zahavi, married and a father of three, who is living in the central area of Israel. Zahavi served in Intelligence's 504 Unit, where he was privy to many secret missions, including the investigation of Dirani.
Related stories:
Zahavi is currently employed by a security organization, which is not related to the IDF.
Zahavi's lawyer, Efi Naveh, said they decided to ask to remove the gag order on Zahavi's details because his real identity was known anyways within his immediate environment. Naveh also said that his details were on the internet, and thus there was no real reason for the gag order to remain in place.
"Zahavi wants to be revealed to the public," his lawyer said. "He wants to openly give his version of the story so that the public can hear it and give its impressions."
Capt. George was Mustafa Dirani's main investigator. He was charged with being responsible for the abuse and rape of Dirani. Later on, Capt. George filed a damages claim against the State of Israel
and the Defense Ministry for NIS 5.5 million ($1.6 million), saying they ruined his name because he wasn't responsible for those actions but rather his commanding officers gave him the orders.
Dirani was kidnapped and brought to Israel from Lebanon
in 1994 as a negotiating trump card to obtain information on the MIA Israeli navigator, Ron Arad
. Dirani was released as part of an exchange in 2004, when Israel received businessman Elhanan Tannenbaum and the bodies of three soldiers in return.

"This is my favourite win ever because the field was so strong," Weir told BBC Radio 5 live.
In the Women's event Brit Shelly Woods ensured there was further success the Paralympians as she cruised to victory in the women's wheelchair race.

Master entrance requirements
The requirement for admission to the Master's degree program in Chemistry is a Bachelor's degree in Chemistry or an equivalent qualification awarded by an institute of higher education in Germany or abroad.
Applicants who have not obtained their university entrance qualification at a German-speaking institution or do not hold a qualification acquired through a course taught in German will be required to provide proof that they are proficient in the German language at a level equivalent to that which would be demonstrated by successful completion of the 'German Language Proficiency Examination for Admission to Higher Education for Foreign Applicants (DSH)'.
It will be assumed that students have sufficient active and passive knowledge of English to enable them to read specialist literature in English and participate in courses taught in English; however, students will not be required to submit written assignments or take examinations in English unless these regulations stipulate otherwise (applicants will not be required to provide documentary evidence of their English language skills).

JTMwrote a review of Fi'zi:k Antares with K:ium Rails on September 30, 2013
Fi'zi:k Antares K:ium Saddle Review
Familiarity: I've used it several times
I decided to give this saddle a try after a great deal of research. I chose the white with red wings, as it perfectly matches my 2013 Specialized Roubaix SL4 Expert (gloss black/gloss red/white bar tape). I'm 62 years old, 5' 10", 170 lbs. and ride approximately 150 miles per week at an average speed of around 18 mph and on a good day 19 mph. In short, I'm a very average "Joe Bag of Doughnuts" cyclist. I've used the Specialized Toupe Expert Gel (143mm/titanium rails) saddle for the last year and a half and am a big fan of this saddle. I simply wanted to try something different and liked the reviews I had read on the Fi'zi:k Antares K:ium saddle. My initial impression when I took the saddle out of the box was that it appeared to be quite a bit firmer with less gel than my Specialized Toupe Expert Gel saddle. The materials used in the construction of this saddle, along with the quality of workmanship, are outstanding. The Antares felt lighter than my Toupe (which it is), however the rather long nose with no cutout was cause for concern. I installed the Fi'zi:k Antares K:ium in the exact position as my Specialized Toupe (height/fore/aft) and headed out for a 52 mile ride. Any and all concerns were put to rest in short order. This saddle fits my sit bones perfectly and the lack of a cutout turned out to be a non-issue. Just a few miles into the ride, it was as if I'd been on this saddle for a thousand miles. I have nothing but good things to say about the Fi'zi:k Antares K:ium saddle and would highly recommend it. Good luck and safe cycling to all!

The Miami Heat are pretty great.
Just look at the standings. Look at the 27-game winning streak that was finally snapped against the Chicago Bulls. Look at what LeBron James is doing in what may be his best season yet. If you look at the Eastern Conference, you'll see the Heat sitting comfortably at the top. And you'll see everybody else so far below them that they need a telescope to catch a glimpse of Erik Spoelstra's finely tuned juggernaut. Taking all of this into consideration, it seems like a foregone conclusion that the Heat will be waiting for the winner of the Western Conference champion when the NBA Finals roll around.
The Heat should roll through the Eastern Conference playoffs, brushing aside the elderly Knicks, the offensively challenged Pacers, or whatever other pretenders may cross their path. But does that say more about the greatness of the Heat or the pathetic state of the Eastern Conference? As I said before, there's no questioning that Miami is among the elite teams in the NBA this year. If they cruise to the Finals with just one or two losses along the way, people might be tempted to throw Miami in the conversation of all-time great teams. But let's put into perspective just how easy their road to the Finals should be.
The Heat currently have the 2nd best net rating (point differential per 100 possessions for those of you who aren't stat-heads) in the NBA at +9.9. Although Miami just lost their first game in nearly two months, they somehow still trail the Oklahoma City Thunder in this category (OKC has a net rating of +11.1). The 3rd and 4th ranked teams in net rating are in the Western Conference with the Thunder, so Miami doesn't really need to worry about them. The Indiana Pacers round out the top 5 with a net rating of +5.9. If you've been paying attention, that's a difference of four whole points per 100 possessions between the East's number one seed and number two seed. That's a damn big drop-off. That's not something we see very often. Typically, the top teams in either conference are pretty close in net rating. There are usually a few teams that could reasonably reach the Finals from either conference and it adds a good deal of drama to the playoffs.
Going back to 2000-01, there has only been one other year when the top team in a conference had that large of a gap between themselves and the 2nd best team. The 2000-01 San Antonio Spurs posted a net rating of +9.8 while the 2nd ranked Sacramento Kings were right at +5.8. Of course, the Lakers eventually took down the Kings and the Spurs on their way to an NBA championship that year. To find a similarly large gap, you have to go back to the 2004-05 Miami Heat. That team, led by Dwyane Wade and Shaquille O'Neal swept through the first two rounds of the playoffs, only to lose in 7 games to the Detroit Pistons in the Eastern Conference Finals. The Pistons ended the regular season with a net rating of just +4.8 while the Heat posted a lofty +8.4, a difference of +3.6. Both the 2000-01 Spurs and the 2004-05 Heat appeared to have exceedingly easy paths to the Finals and yet neither team managed to make it there.
If you want to find the team with the easiest path to the Finals in the past 12 years that actually took advantage of this path, take a look at the 2007-08 Boston Celtics. That Celtics team had a +3.5 advantage over their biggest obstacle in the Eastern Conference and, as you know, was able to beat the Lakers in the Finals to win the NBA championship. But even those eventual NBA champs didn't coast through the first 12 wins of the playoffs. The Hawks and Cavaliers pushed Kevin Garnett and friends to seven games in the first two rounds before Boston beat the 2nd ranked Pistons in six games to earn a trip to the Finals.
Let's take a look at LeBron's best team when he was a member of the Cleveland Cavaliers. Obviously, he never won an NBA championship with the Cavs, but that doesn't mean that those teams were crap. On the contrary, they were quite good. The 2008-09 Cavaliers won 66 games and posted a net rating of +10.3. That's actually a better regular season than LeBron's record setting squad this year. But the competition in the East was much better than it is this year. The Celtics and Magic were both close behind with net ratings of +8.7 and +8.3, respectively. It's not hard to see how much better either of those teams were than this year's Pacers (a net rating of +5.9, if you recall).
So what does this mean? Nothing, really. I just find it interesting. It may be jumping the gun to anticipate any of this, but it certainly looks like the Heat are destined to meet the best of the Western Conference in the NBA Finals. And the rest of the Eastern Conference are just placeholders so we can kill some time and watch LeBron and D-Wade toss insane alley-oops to each other. Meanwhile, Kevin Durant, Tim Duncan, and Chris Paul will be duking it out on the other side of the NBA bracket. Do you think we'd view Miami's berth in the Finals so inevitable if they had to go through the Clippers and Spurs first? Probably not.
None of this is intended to tear down the Heat or diminish their accomplishments. I swear, it's not – I just want to provide some context and perspective. And as we've seen, having an easy road to the Finals is hardly a guarantee. The Heat still need to take care of business and we've certainly witnessed some big playoff upsets in the past. Nobody will deny that this Heat team is incredibly good – not even me. But it's possible for the team to be fantastic and for their competition to be pretty damn terrible at the same time.

As part of the new system, physicians can send electronic messages rather than handwritten notes to pharmacies to order prescriptions for patients on Medicaid, a government health program for the needy.
Medicaid spokesman Francis Rullan says the new system should make it easier to determine whether a patient has been prescribed the same medicine by different doctors, or whether one patient has been prescribed different drugs that could have dangerous interactions.
Shared Health, a company based in Chattanooga, Tenn., has a four-year, $9.5 million contract to run the electronic health records system for Mississippi Medicaid. The federal government pays most of the costs.
