Council hears golf course update
By Ashley Rader
The Elizabethton City Council received an update from the Elizabethton Municipal Golf Course a month after giving final approval for a $160,000 contribution to cover course debts.
Responding to a question from Councilman Jeff Treadway, golf course board vice chairman Jeff Andrews said the course was caught up on all past-due sales tax and were still in talks with the Internal Revenue Service to reduce the penalties on the payroll taxes.
He said arrangements had been made to have the payroll taxes paid every month so it would not get behind on those again, based on financial advice the course had received.
The course had debts totalling $158,539 in unpaid bills, which included $58,250 to vendors, a $40,000 line of credit to Carter County Bank, $51,304 in payroll tax liabilities, $6,584 in state sales tax due and $2,400 in Tennessee unemployment. The golf course also has a $30,000 note due to the city.
"This is to show them we are aware of this, we have a handle on it and it will not happen again," Andrews said.

"We love this little card. It's very us and worked well for our over all theme and design. I didn't care too much for the tinyprints logo on the back being so big, and the card has a matte finish so get an ink pen not a ball point. But other than running out of room we love these cards!! They will be great for overall thanks and not just wedding thanks."
"Again, tiny prints comes up with the best designs! I come from a family that is Chinese, Spanish and German. This card is fun, colorful and perfect for just about any nationality! I don't need to get plain blank cards or specific language cards! Love it!"
"I have friends all over the world and although we live in the "Internet Era," I treasure sending and receiving cards from my friends. With that said, I like to be creative too. I ordered this card to say "hello" to my friends and WOW! What an amazing product I did I get!! Nice weight, beautiful colors, perfect size. Whimsical and lovely! It's the type of card and you see and sigh "ahhhh." I received many compliments for it and I'm certainly ordering extras!"
"I absolutely love these cards. They are pretty with just the right touch of femininity. The quality of the paper is amazing for the price! Can't wait to send my first one out!"

Who is the most successful server manufacturer today? Viewed one way, the answer is "no one". And that face is a dismal warning to traditional PC makers who are counting on servers to keep their businesses afloat as the PC market slowly disintegrates.
Hewlett-Packard, Dell, IBM, Fujitsu and Cisco sold the most servers during the fourth quarter of 2012, according to data released by IDC. But it's the "other" category that's scaring the pants off the others. That's a throng of second-tier and "white box" server vendors who collectively sold 879,711 servers during the quarter. Number one HP, by contrast, sold 663,598.
Look no further than IBM's reported plans to sell off its low-end serve business to Lenovo — likely Big Blue's attempt to escape an increasingly commoditized market while it still can.
True, IBM, HP, and Dell still each pull in more revenue than the the $1.86 billion amassed by the "others" horde. But that's cold comfort, given that low-cost unbranded servers are quickly eating into their markets. The commoditization trend is getting a hard push from companies like Google, Facebook and Rackspace, who are busily designing and building their own servers to power their huge data centers.
Server manufacturers are trying to shield themselves with software, services and support, three defenses against the Mongol horde of white boxes. Arguably, though, that hasn't worked for Big Blue, at least at the low end of PC-based servers. And there's no particular reason to think it will save HP or Dell over the long term, either.
On the surface, none of this will really disadvantage consumers or developers. It really doesn't matter to end users whose name is on the boxes that power Netflix, Evernote, Apple's iCloud, or Amazon. And there will always be a need for some sort of server, from somebody. In fact, commodization is an indirect but very real plus for users, since it lowers costs for Web providers, making possible an increasing lineup of innovative, and often free, Web services.
But it's definitely bad news for the server makers themselves.
This Has Been A Long Time Coming
Traditional PC manufacturers like IBM, HP and Dell have taken one hit to their businesses after another over the past decade or so. Desktop PCs started declining in price with the rise of the Internet, reducing the need to upgrade PCs. Then laptops ate further into that market as they began to rival desktop power while offering mobility.
Finally, tablets and smartphones tapped the cloud for computing and location, and far more cheaply, limiting the need for people to buy expensive laptops.
That left PC-based servers — and that market is now under siege as well. The days of the mainframes came and went, and most server infrastructure now runs on the Xeon processor, Intel's PC processor optimized for the enterprise. Traditional mainframe processors — IBM's Power, Oracle's Sparc — retreated to the ivory towers of research computing. Meanwhile, companies like former Taiwan motherboard makers Supermicro or Asus realized that they can assemble a notebook or server just as well as a Dell or HP, and for less.
As prices of traditional PCs fell, hardware makers turned to new tactics, loading up new machines with "crapware" ranging from trial versions of AOL to antivirus programs to games. Consumers hated it, but the revenue crapware provided, directly or indirectly, helped keep hardware makers afloat.
Unfortunately, there's no way to duplicate that strategy in the server space. IT managers don't want servers cluttered up with Adobe Flash, Cyberlink PowerDVD, Roxio Creator, or any of the other bloatware that Dell places on its PCs. They do, however, want some help just making sense of it all.
Geek Squad On Steroids
Enter "solutions," the jargon that dominates enterprise discussions. Suddenly, the PC turned server makers weren't selling a PC, monitor and printer; they were packaging together a server, associated storage, a network switch, security, migration, and engineering services and support to tie it all together. Put extremely simplistically, an enterprise solution is everything that the Geek Squad offers, just scaled up by orders of magnitude.
In 2012, for instance, Dell bought Clerity in order to help Dell Services "reduce the cost of transitioning business-critical applications and data from legacy computing systems and onto more modern architectures, including the cloud." In the PC space, that's called dumping the contents of Mom and Dad's old PC onto a USB key and loading it into Google Drive.
Then again, Dell's enterprise "solutions" business climbed 4 percent last quarter, and pulled in $19.4 billion for its last fiscal year — about a third of its revenue. Cha-ching.
The central idea of the enterprise solution isn't the packaging. It's the customization, and the investment. Hewlett-Packard, for example, offers a fairly substantive list of industry-specific solutions for aerospace, automotive, and media, among others, with each pitching an additional value-added service. This was a tactic the same companies never really deployed in the PC market, perhaps because they never saw the need — or couldn't justify the investment — in designing PCs optimized for, say, tax professionals.
Adding Value to a Commodity Business
Still, the "other" category is compelling evidence that a sizeable portion of the market seems to be unwilling to pay hardware makers for their services. Instead, they're pooling their resources. Massing and deploying large arrays of commodity hardware is the underlying principle behind everything from Hadoop — an open-source project for managing huge stores of data across distributed commodity servers — to the Open Compute Project. In that sense, the commodity server business is thriving.
And the PC makers themselves are helping it along, believing they can surf the trend by offering software and services on top of commodity hardware.
Dell's Data Center Solutions business, for instance, is a small but growing custom solutions business within Dell's larger server sales business. In January, Tracy Davis, the general manager of Dell DCS, attended the Open Compute Summit, whose principles include stripping the "vanity" logos from servers and replacing them with as much cost-optimized hardware as possible. Why would Dell participate in a forum seemingly designed to kill it off?
Davis told me that Dell is able to engage — and sell — everything from engineering services to Dell's ability to buy components all over the world. That's a competitive offering, not necessarily reflected in the bottom line, that still adds value to Dell's business versus a no-name, commodity server maker.
The Writing Is On The Wall
In some sense, things came to a head this week after CRN and other outlets reported that IBM was in talks with Lenovo to sell its low-end X86 server business for between $5 billion and $6 billion — an eerie parallel to the way Big Blue sold off its ThinkPad notebook business to Lenovo years ago. IBM hasn't confirmed or denied the talks.
"Assuming IBM divests [its] low end (low margin) x86 biz to Lenovo, HP and Dell should be concerned because Lenovo can make [money] and disrupt [the] space," Matt Eastwood, an IDC server analyst, wrote on Twitter. The idea, Eastwood and others suggested, was that IBM couldn't squeeze money from a commodity business. Lenovo can.
But what's the commodity? Generic servers? Not necessarily.
Solutions Can Be Commodities, Too
IBM's highest-profile service is Watson, the natural-language technology that beat several past "Jeopardy" champions and is being used in financial services and to help treat cancer patients. Watson and other related services run on servers based on its Power chips, not x86. Yes, IBM deploys a whole slew of services on its line of x86 servers — but they're awfully similar to what everyone else does, too.
Eventually, companies like ARM say, we'll all be running servers on the sort of low-power processors that power our cell phones, with the Web's basic functions — serving up static Web pages, for example — running on cheap, purpose-built machines. These aren't just commodity servers; these are commodity solutions. Meanwhile, companies like Google and Facebook are quietly building their own custom servers to fit their own, specialized needs.
Here's what IBM may be thinking. Since its highest-value, unique service offerings run on Power, they justify further investment. And if IBM can offer uniquely high-value services on top of the cheaper x86 boxes, then it should hold onto those, too. But if the company can't see customers turning to IBM for those solutions — either now or in the future — then IBM's justified for ditching them while the getting is good.
IBM led the way in pulling away from the PC in 2004, a controversial move at the time that now seems more than justified. If IBM takes the same approach with its x86 server business, it may be a similar harbinger of doom for other makers of x86 servers.

How Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) can help to reduce labor, errors and cost.
Little things mean a lot--one of your biggest headaches can be keeping small items like fasteners in stock without holding excessive amounts of inventory. Some companies are finding that a vendor can take over so you can focus on bigger things. The right vendor managed inventory (VMI) program can increase supply chain efficiency and support your goal of a smooth production flow. With VMI, a supplier assumes responsibility for inventory and supply of a class of parts, guaranteeing availability, organization and replenishment, as well as procurement and invoicing. What you want is the ability to connect your parts-inventory needs to the global supply base, to have the right parts in the right quantity at the right time at the most competitive cost.
To provide the service you need in your operation, the right VMI partner should be able to assess and understand your current process in detail and have the capability to provide the right support. In some industries, for example, it is important for the supplier to understand specialized inspection, certification, and tracking and traceability requirements. With the assessment, the partner should give you a plan for moving your inventory and migrating inventory control systems, and explain how it will affect the way employees do their jobs. It should be clear who would be responsible for training workers on the new system. The VMI partner should be capable of changing over the system without interrupting operations, and have a reputation of being proactive about potential problems, both in the transition and in daily operations.
One of the tools the vendor can bring to the party is automated communications and reporting. Applying technology to track part movement, stock levels, replenishment lead-time and order points produces several benefits. With the elimination of manual data entry, errors are reduced. Automated inventory control linked to your demand-planning data or electronic Kanban board will speed up replenishment, order cycle time and lead-time. The purpose of VMI is to eliminate stock-outs that hold up production, and the expediting that follows. A good VMI system should also reduce the number of purchase orders your employees have to generate and handle, and the labor hours associated with them.
Another common feature of a VMI service is the "in-plant store" managed by the vendor on your site. Point-of-use replenishment can also be provided by the VMI partner, where inventory is maintained as close as possible to where it is needed. Giving the partner responsibility for line-side delivery simplifies your material handling and inventory processes, reducing error and stock-outs.
In a good VMI arrangement, the relationship with the partner is crucial. The vendor must be able to communicate well with your employees, be well organized, open to audit and have a proven track record with companies like yours.

Professor John Aggleton FRS
Professor John Aggleton FRS, BA MA Cantab, DPhil Oxon, Cardiff School of Psychology
Professor John Aggleton is a neuroscientist who has made major contributions to our knowledge of the neural basis of memory.
He has developed influential theories that have led to fundamental changes in the ways other scientists think about the brain systems supporting how individuals remember the past events in their lives (the episodic and recognition memory systems).
Professor John Aggleton's research has revealed the roles of other brain structures to create a far more comprehensive picture of how different types of memory are formed and recalled.
He is currently investigating exactly how the structures he has indentified, in the diencephalon and medial temporal lobe, work together to ensure memory function.
Of his election to the Royal Society, Professor Aggleton said: "Research is a team business and everyone who has worked with me, whether for years or just a few weeks over a summer, has played a part in building the overall picture.
"The questions I'm trying to solve are old ones, but remain incredibly important. It is wonderful to have my research recognised in this way."

According to Scout.com, SEC teams have secured 30 players so far from the top 100 players including 11 five-star recruits. There are five teams – Texas A&M, LSU, Florida, Alabama and Georgia – currently with top ten recruiting classes.
The Pac-12 was second, thanks to a strong showing by UCLA, Washington and USC. Eighteen players in the top 100 will find homes with Pac-12 teams as well as seven five-star recruits.
Michigan strong showing – the top-rated class – helped propel the Big Ten to third in the conference rankings followed by the Big 12, which was led by Oklahoma, and the Atlantic Coast Conference which rounded out the top five.
With several highly-touted high school players yet to commit, these ranking could change dramatically in the coming hours.
Here are the 11 conferences ranked by strength of their school's recruiting classes:

Tribune reporter
March 5, 2013
Just a second.
Hang on. Be right there.
OK, I'm ready to get started. Thanks for sticking around.
This is a column about — wait for it — waiting, specifically about how much better waiting has become in recent years. It is also an example of exactly the kind of thing I'm talking about.
You can open up the newspaper to this article or, even more compactly, read it on your smartphone via a few button pushes and your carrier's (probably exorbitant) monthly fee. You will be entertained by its nimble wordplay and piercing ideas or outraged by its intellectual slovenliness.
Either way, you will have killed five minutes without staring at a clock, gnashing your teeth, or imagining the death throes of the third-grade dropout who designed the "service" system at the secretary of state driver's license offices.
The world now is filled with similar such useful occupiers of available time: games and videos, articles and songs. And all of them fit into a shirt pocket, summoned by a gadget the size of a chocolate bar that is more powerful than the Mac of the infamous "1984" commercial.
Tasks I used to dread because of the dead time, everything from the auto emissions test to jury duty to boarding a plane, I no longer take on with a long face and a low groan. We have entered a golden age of waiting.
In part, I will grant you, things seem especially shiny because the contrast between then and now is so great.
You remember the old days, right? You'd be at the doctor's office or the driver's license facility and, if you had forgotten to bring something of your own to read, you were in for it. Stultification. Numbness. A feeling that your bones were starting to fossilize.
At the medic's, you were probably at the mercy of whatever passion the practitioner's money had led him to. This was back when doctors made real money. So it was old copies of magazines about yachts or the German shepherd, maybe a frayed Reader's Digest if he still tried to retain a populist streak. The driver's license office might have had a TV on, but it was sure to be tuned to a soap opera or courtroom show played at too high or too low a volume.
Or you could play little mind games. Whenever I needed to pass five minutes, I would sing Bruce Springsteen's "Thunder Road" in my head, aware of being off-key even when not making any sound.
The waiting experience of yore might best be summed up by the first line of the most famous play about the topic, Samuel Beckett's "Waiting for Godot." That line: "Nothing to be done."
Being able to wait is, I do not dispute, a valuable skill. The Stanford marshmallow experiment famously proved a correlation between children who were able to delay getting treats and success in later life.
In his 2012 book "Wait: The Art and Science of Delay," Frank Partnoy argues for waiting until the last possible moment to make a decision — if the decider has been an "active procrastinator," as some scientists call it, truly considering the merits of the case.
Technology, Partnoy contends, has sped things up, made it harder to be able to do the kind of necessary waiting he writes about.
This may be true. But at the same time, it's done wonders for more mundane waiting. And businesses are starting to seize on the possibilities: Delta Air Lines has installed public-use iPads in its waiting areas at LaGuardia Airport in New York.
Now, to be fair, certain friends recoiled at my suggestion that waiting has gotten much better. Apparently they don't like seeing a roomful of people gazing intently into personal screens. These friends — to protect their anonymity, we'll call them "Luddites" — recall a mythical past in which waits forced strangers into having sparkling conversations with one another, just as, I suppose, the lack of automobiles gave our ancestors stronger legs.
I've had plenty of conversations with strangers, people who interrupted me during an internal "Thunder Road" recitation to tell me something evident about the weather. Some of these have even turned into chats I've enjoyed. Still, you don't want that to be the only option. And the ratio of enlightenment from those talks versus what I get from my Samsung Galaxy S III is low. No offense, fellow humans.
In the depths of my smartphone, a dozen novels await in the Kindle app. (As I write this, I'm antsy to get back to "Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk," and not only because it needs to be done in two days for book club.)
I've got scores of podcasts, which I listen to as a sleep aid or when I'm passing the time on long solo car rides. I could read the Tribune, The New York Times or any one of several magazines.
I could pick up where I left off in W.E.L.D.E.R., which is sort of a solo, steampunk version of Scrabble. I could even look at Twitter because Twitter, they tell us, is Very Important.
Or, gasp, I could get some work done.
It took 28 minutes earlier this year for my doctor and his associates to get me through my annual physical, wait time, exam and blood work and all. Would it be ironic if I keeled over right now from an undetected condition? Yes, it would — as ironic, say, as the fact that buying a new smartphone is one of our culture's iconic waiting scenarios. But, still: 28 minutes for a physical!
I was thrilled, and at the same time I almost resented not having time to wait.

Syracuse (WSYR-TV) - A 70-year-old man was seriously injured early Saturday morning after being attacked outside of a 7-Eleven in Syracuse.
Police say James Gifford had just left the store at the intersection of Valley Drive and South Street just after 6:00 a.m. and was attacked by a group of five or six black males, according to Syracuse Police.
Police also said this appears to be an unprovoked incident with an innocent victim.
Law enforcement officials are working with the store to obtain surveillance images that might shed more light on the incident and provide a more specific description of the suspects.
The initial investigation shows that the suspects used their hands and feet, but would not release specifics regarding Gifford's injuries.
A motive for the attack has not been determined.
Police said they are also unsure if this was a robbery or if it was connected to "knockout game" attacks, in which the participants try to knock a person unconscious on the first punch.
A "knockout game" attack did happen in Syracuse in May, when 51-year-old Michael Daniels was beaten to death on Brighton Avenue.
At this time, police need more information to determine the nature of the beating on Saturday.
Syracuse Police Sgt. Tom Connellan said that police are relying on information from the public to solve this case.
He said there may be some people who witnessed the attack, helped Gifford after the attack and left the scene before police could conduct an interview.
Police said one man reportedly performed CPR on Gifford but has not yet been interviewed by police.
People with information can call Syracuse Police at 315-442-5222. All calls will be kept strictly confidential.
Gifford is being treated at Upstate University Hospital.

I am sure that all of you mamas out there have heard about the safety issues related to crib bumpers. This is an extremely important issue that is so often overlooked. Did you know that are an average of 26 crib related injuries every day? It is actually against the law for caregivers to use bumper pads, due to the risk of suffocation, but they are sold to parents everyday. If you are looking for more information on crib safety, please visit www.missionorg.com.
The problem that moms are faced with now is how to safely pad your babies crib. Sure, they sell those mesh like crib bumpers online and in the stores, but come on, who really wants to use those? They may be functional but they sure don't fit into that nursery decor that you painstakingly designed. Besides, I wouldn't want to sleep against one of those all night, would you?
I was faced with this exact dilemma recently while switching my baby out of the bassinet and into the crib. I was so fortunate to discover the Wonder Bumper by Go Mama Go Designs. The so generously offered to let me try out their Bluebirds Wonder bumper, Minky Crib Sheet and Toddler Blanket.
Here is some information about Wonder Bumpers from the manufacturer:
"Wonder Bumpers are the safe, smart alternative to conventional bumper pads. Wonder Bumpers' innovative design continuously protects your baby's head and body, prevents escape artists from crawling out of their crib and provides increased air flow."
"Count the rails on your crib! Cribs have anywhere from 30-60 rails depending on the model. Wonder Bumpers come in 2 options, one consisting of 24 bumpers, the other consisting of 38 bumpers. Some cribs will need a set of 38, other cribs will need 2 sets of 24. Mixing 2 sets of 24 give parents fun and fabulous mix and match options. In addition, we provide bumpers in sets of 2 to ensure you can make your crib a safe and soft place for your baby."
How Do I know if they will fit on my crib?
"Wonder Bumpers are soft and stretchable. One individual bumper is 5" in width and will fit on rails 2.5". They will fit on both round and flat rails. Wonder Bumpers are also designed so you can zip 2 together for larger rails over 2.5". Each bumper is 24" long, but can easily compress to accommodate shorter rails."
Can put wonder bumpers in the washing machine?
"Yes, you can wash all of our products. Please be sure to wash according to care instructions on the label for best results."
"You can purchase a package of 2 of any design Go Mama Go Design manufactures, this is only available on the Go Mama Go Designs website. All of ther Wonder Bumpers, except Wishes of Windsor, are reversible. Due to the reversibilty, the Wonders Bumpers provide multiple design options, our Baby Basic has solid on solid, while our other lines have a print on one side a solid on the other."
My Thoughts on the Go Mama Go Wonder Bumper:
I cannot describe how much I LOVE this bumper! First and foremost they give me peace of mind. I know that I am providing the safest sleep environment possible for my little guy. The bumper also provides security for the future. My last son was a crib climber. Once he was able to stand at the crib rail, he would use the bumper pad as a sort of step. With the Wonder bumper this is no longer a worry.
Secondly, the bumpers were so easy to zip onto each rail. They are made of quality materials that will stand the test of time. These bumpers are not only safer, but they actually work BETTER than a standard bumper. No slipping or sliding, no tugging to change the sheets.
Last, but certainly not least, let's just talk about the sheer adorableness of these bluebird bumpers. I could not resist (the fact that the bright turquoise of the birds perfectly matched my bedroom walls was a huge selling point). In fact, the bright white with splashes of turquoise and spring green have become a great backdrop for my photography. The minky crib sheet and toddler blanket are great additions to this set. So cuddly! I love this product and design. So much so that now I am inspired to redecorate my entire nursery around it!

A quick exchange of comments here Monday provoked this thought from Boak & Bailey about what happens to even the most dominant of breweries over time:
Our suspicion is that, of the current wave of new brewers (1970s to now) some will inevitably become the new Whitbreads and Watneys.
We don't see, say, Sierra Nevada going into the Lite Lager business any time soon, but we can imagine, in thirty years time, a business which seems complacent and arrogant, and of which people will say: "They're so dominant that no-one else can get into the market, and all they produce is that bland, dumbed-down, sub-6% pale ale crap …"
If that does happen, there will be plenty of brewers waiting to challenge them, and the cycle will continue.
Of course change is inevitable, but is complacency? The number of "breweries in planning" illustrates there are already plenty of pesky competitors nipping at the heals of the largest of the small breweries (otherwise known as "big craft" or just "craft"), and projects like Sierra Nevada's "Beer Camp Across America" sure indicate somebody's not punching out at 4:59.
No arguing that the crazy growth of beers with IPA somewhere in their name suggest that a few brewers might do a little more thinking on their own, but together IPAs, PAs and "seasonals" still don't account for half of sales. That's a lot more diversity than the days when the choices were pale lager and light pale lager.
Twenty years ago, when Sierra Nevada sold about one-fifth of what it does now, it seemed like almost every new brewer talked in glowing terms about how great Sierra Nevada Pale Ale tastes, then added "but I want to make something different." Think about when Stone Brewing opened in 1996. "When I brewed at Pyramid (in Washington) we made a Cascade pale ale, and I was a little sensitive about doing what we'd done at Pyramid," co-founder Steve Wager explained. He and Greg Koch decided not to use Cascade hops (also a signature for Sierra Nevada Pale Ale) in any of their beers, and made a big deal out of it. "We had some fun," he said.
Five days ago, August Schell Brewing Company, established in 1860 and the second oldest brewery in the country, won two medals at the World Beer Cup. It earned gold for Schell's Firebrick, a Vienna-style lager. File that under traditional. It took a bronze for Schell's Framboise du Nord, made by adding a boatload of raspberries to Star of the North, a Berliner Weisse, and refermenting that for an additional four months. This all happens in Schell's original 1936 cypress wood lagering tanks.
Some tradition in there, for sure, but also something else. Definitely, 154 years in, not complacency.

Welcome to the Guild! Glad you found us
I've always been fascinated by maps, real and imaginary, historical and modern, but never had a need to create my own until now. I recently started running my own Pathfinder campaign after many years of RPG experience from the player side, and I discovered that many published modules and adventures have beautiful maps that are difficult or impossible to show to the players, because they contain spoilers, or are simply too small to be useful in a tabletop campaign. I'd like the players to have something nice to look at, and of course, when I start my own fantasy setting I will need maps for that.
While searching the web for resources I stumbled in here, and I was completely blown away by the quality of the featured maps and the tutorials. I even felt inspired to pull my Wacom tablet out of the box where it's been languishing since my last move a year ago. (Now, if I can just find the pen...)
For my first project, I plan to re-do the regional hexmaps from the Kingmaker Adventure Path in a more authentically medieval style and without spoilers.

text: June 30 Deadline Approaching for CRP Re-enrollment USDA's Farm Service Agency notified almost 160,000 CRP participants with contracts expiring between 2008 and 2010 of their opportunity to re-enroll and extend. Compiled by staff Published on: Jun 23, 2006 Tweet Post to Your Wall. Email Story RSS Permalink Print Conservation Reserve Program participants with contracts expiring between 2008 and 2010 have until June 30 to apply for re-enrollment or extension. USDA's Farm Service Agency notified almost 160,000 CRP participants with contracts expiring between 2008 and 2010 of their opportunity to re-enroll and extend. FSA will report the intentions of those contract holders later this summer. FSA will use the Environmental Benefits Index at the time of enrollment to determine eligibility for CRP re-enrollments or extensions, giving additional credit for contracts within national CRP conservation priority areas. FSA will rank individual contracts into one of five tiers based on the environmental benefits of the original EBI score. Eligible participants ranking in the first tier (between 81-100%) of the EBI may re-enroll their land in new 10-year contracts. Participants with wetlands in this top tier ranking are eligible to re-enroll those wetlands in a 15-year contract. Eligible participants ranking in the second tier (between 61-80%) may extend their CRP contracts for five years. Participants in the third tier (between 41-60%) may extend their contracts by four years. Participants in the fourth tier (between 21-40%) may receive three-year extensions. Participants in the bottom tier may extend their contracts by two years. Before approving re-enrolled or extended contracts, FSA will review the contracts to ensure that the required cover is maintained and there is compliance with other contract provisions. In addition, participants must be able to show that they meet eligibility requirements for the new enrollment period. In the case of re-enrollments, updated rental rates will apply. On June 5, 2006, USDA announced that CRP participants with contracts expiring Sept. 30, 2007, intend to re-enroll or extend CRP contracts covering 13 million acres, almost 84% of the 15.5 million acres set to expire. FSA posted tables showing state and county acreage enrollment data at: www.fsa.usda.gov/dafp/cepd/crp.htm. CRP participants may voluntarily enroll highly erodible and other fragile cropland in CRP through long-term contracts of 10- to 15-years. On the enrolled land, participants plant grasses, trees and other vegetation. In exchange, participants receive annual rental payments and a payment of up to 50% of the cost of establishing conservation practices. For more information on CRP, contact your local FSA office or visit the FSA Web site at: www.fsa.usda.gov/dafp/cepd/default.htm.

3663 Voltaire St, San Diego, CA | Directions 9210632.739686 -117.228477
Neighborhoods: Loma Heights, Western, Western San Diego, Point Loma Heights
Love Venetian! – My family has been coming to Venetian's for years and have always been very satisfied. They have the best pizza in San Diego, hands down. The pastas are great, the bar is cozy and inviting, and they have great Tiramisu. We actually take out food more often than eating in the restaurant but when decide to actually go out, it is always so nice. Best part is they have now started delivering to the Point Loma/Ocean Beach area! Now who can beat that? Some good pizza combos that we eat often: fresh tomato, pepperoni, & sausage; and linguica, spinach & pepperoni. Yum!
Huge disappointment – I've been coming here very infrequently over my lifetime, but I always manage to visit every time I come to San Diego. I always have the antipasto salad. What used to be a very good salad has become a bunch of lettuce with a few hunks of meat and cheese and a bunch of pepperoncinis. All this for $13.80? Sadly, my days of eating here are done.
best pizza in the city – never had a better pizza anywhere ill be back
Neighborhood Gem – This cozy, neighborhood Italian restaurant is my families' favorite place in town. We have been going for the past 4 years since moving to the Point Loma area. Everyone that works there, from the bus boy Michael, Ryan, Quinn to the waiters and waitresses, Jess, Hannah, Patrick, Jeanine, to the owners, Joey and Frank works their tails off to make us feel like we are extremely welcome. We feel that this is an extension of our home and know other "regulars" must too, because we see the same crowd frequently. It is an incredibly vibrant place that is fun in a relaxed way. There is no pretense about this restaurant. It is whatever you want it to be. If you are looking for a low-key night, you can wear jeans and a t-shirt and not get funny looks. You can also make this place a formal venue to celebrate intimate moments with loved ones. We oftentimes celebrate birthdays and anniversaries here. The crew has a good feel of what we are looking for and caters very well to the evening that we have in mind. The food is ridiculously good and incredibly priced for the portion size. Everyone that I have brought here has made this a regular stop on their circuit of restaurants. Joey, the owner, has even given some of these folks his cell phone number to better cater to their needs. We are very thankful to have found this neighborhood gem and the friendships that it has given us.

My favorite restaurant when I visit San Diego – When I moved to Cabo 4 years ago I was dissapointed there wasn't an italian restaurant that comes close to the venetian.
When I come to San Diego I make it a point to have dinner at the Venetian. I am always greeted warmly by Joey Giacalone (part of the family) and the staff is also very friendly. They even remember my name!!
There is nothing more enjoyable and relaxing than sitting at the bar, sipping a glass of wine and ordering an appetizer before dinner. There is great conversation with the frequent locals and the bartenders.
When I do get to my table it is in a lovely garden room and I always receive great, prompt service. The food is fabulous and the portions are so huge that there is always a leftover for the next day.
I highly recommend The Venetian to anyone who enjoys a great friendly, family restaurant with the best italian food in town.
I cannot wait to get back to San Diego this Summer!!!
Pleasant Surprise – Being a transplant from the east coast, it was a
pleasant surprise to find a nice italian family
restaurant. The food was great the atmosphere
terrific. Our party of eight probably ate to much,
drank to much "we took a cab" and above all
were treated like kings& queens. So two
thumbs up and enjoy.
Great Food, Great Atmosphere! – When my husband and I found the Venetian, I couldn't believe our luck! My husband, being Italian, is very picky about Italian food. So, at our first visit, I set myself up for a disappointing meal. However, the ONLY disappointing moment was the fact that we were unable to eat it all! Their red sauce has amazing flavor, in both the pasta dishes as well as the pizza. The service is wonderful - you are always met with smiling faces - and the atmosphere is great. We have never had a meal there we didn't love, and every time we have friends in town visiting, this is the first place we take them. I highly recommend taking the time to try the Venetian - you won't be sorry!
The Truth About the Venetian and the Giacolones ... – Dear Trashy Reviews:
I couldn't agree more. The reason the restaurant is so trashy is because the brothers are low-class morons. Who know little or knowing about fine Italian cuisine or culture. That is why the atmosphere is so tacky -- a kind of faux noir of ghetto-Italian taste.
As for the food, nothing is prepared fresh except for the salads, sandwiches, and pizza -- with the latter being good but greasy and old school that ignores the calories. Everything else is prepared and frozen for next day or days ... So, the Venetian is "acceptable' when it comes to Italian food (note that I didn't say cuisine). As for the cheesy restaurant atmosphere, well "Casino" and a la retro Italiano club scene comes to mind -- what do you expect from restaurateurs like the Giacolones who are anything but "genuises"
As I said about the Giacolone brothers earlier, they are creme de la-creme morons. Joey Giacolone is "barely" a high school graduate who pretends to be something else. His mal-command of the English language can be revealing. Basically, he is an insouciant idiot who has only achieved a measure of success through nepotism -- ask Joey what that means. As a former employee of Joe many, many years ago, I discovered that he possessed an irrepressible superiority complex that had no foundation in reality.
Matter of fact, I learned personally from Joey under his employment which he had a habit of bragging about, that the only reason he graduated high school was due entirely to having a surrogate student complete his required coursework -- had sad is that statement, but Joey was proud of it. He seemed to have delusions of grandeur owing entirely to some filial station in life which I personally found not only annoying, but truly pathetic knowing his family and educational background.
As for Frank Giacolone, he makes the glacial drift seem like the autobahn -- I think he was congenitally impaired (mildly retarded) but his brother didn't admit it.
Poor food and poor service. – Trash, from the outside entrance, to the waitress, and most importantly the food. The waiting area when you first enter is a joke. The waitress looked like an old piece of leather and her personality was pushy and rude. The decore was from the 70's and dirty. The food was terrible.
Best Pizza, Great Service, Decent Price – I've been going to the Venetian 'before I was born'. This place is a must for great pizza and a large selection of pastas and other dishes. While I reserve Baci Restorante as my favorite Italian restaurant, the Venetian is a great place for pizza and selection of other dishes for those nights when you dont feel like a super fancy dinner.

Gaylord Palms showcases a major renovation.
In Kissimmee, Fla., Gaylord Palms Resort & Convention centers putting the finishing touches on a $50 million renovation. The new 10,000-square-foot Coquina Lawn features lush conversation pods and dramatic lighting, and it accommodates up to 1,000 people for a private reception. The area can be tented in inclement weather. All 1,406 guest rooms at Gaylord have been renovated and include updated amenities such as flat-screen TVs and ergonomic desk chairs. Wi-Fi is available in all rooms. Two new offices, perfect for meeting planners, are located close to the ballrooms. They provide conference seating for up to 18 people and come equipped with plasma television with cable and capability to connect to a computer. Meeting and exhibit space at the resort tops 400,000 square feet in total.
In Ohio, the $140 million Hilton Columbus Downtown is approaching completion for a fall 2012 opening. The 532-room, 48-suite hotel will have 22,800 square feet of meeting space (including a 12,000-square-foot ballroom). Being built to achieve LEED certification, the hotel is connected to the Greater Columbus Convention Center, with its 1.7 million square feet of space, via enclosed walkway. There are plenty of dining, shopping, and entertainment opportunities in the area. Close to the hotel and the convention center are the North Market, Goodale Park, the Arena District, and Short North Arts District.
The 428-room Hilton Tucson El Conquistador opened a new 11,000-square-foot conference center this spring. The Executive Conference Center features eight meeting rooms, including one permanent boardroom with a built-in 70-inch LED television for presentations. The conference center is designed for groups of 10 to 100 attendees. Most meeting rooms have windows, some offer balconies with spectacular views of the Catalina Mountains. The rooms also feature state-of-the-art audiovisual equipment, ergonomic seating, worktables with nonreflective surfaces and built-in electrical outlets, as well as specially designed energy-efficient lighting. The conference center is seeking certification from the International Association of Conference Centers.
Hyatt Regency Louisville (Ky.) has just completed a $5.8 million project. The lobby and front desk area were completely renovated, and the fitness center was doubled in size. The new Sway restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner focusing on fresh, locally grown and raised foods. The hotel, with 393 guest rooms and suites and more than 20,000 square feet of meeting space, is directly connected to the Kentucky International Convention Center.
The St. Regis Bal Harbour Resort opened earlier this year, 15 minutes north of Miami's South Beach. The resort features touches such as butler service, a Remède Spa (exclusive to the St. Regis brand), and a world-class dining experience inspired by acclaimed chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten. All of the 243 guest rooms feature glass-enclosed balconies with floor-to-ceiling views of the ocean and white sand beach. A variety of outdoor function spaces are also oriented toward the stunning water views. The 11,200 square feet of meeting space includes a 7,800-square-foot ballroom and four boardrooms ranging in size from 250 square feet to 450 square feet.
The Hyatt Regency Minneapolis is undergoing a $25 million renovation of its guest rooms and suites, public areas, and restaurants.
In Las Vegas, Tropicana has completed a $180 million renovation and expansion that included new deluxe rooms and suites in the Paradise and Island Towers. Also added were a new casino, more than 60,000 square feet of meeting and function space that can accommodate up to 1,500 people, and new restaurants and bars. The new conference center features its own registration desk and private office; three ballrooms (including a grand ballroom with more than 25,000 square feet of space, divisible into nine breakout rooms), a pillarless 25,000-square-foot exhibit hall, and a full-service business center.

Located just three miles southeast of Snoqualmie Pass along the south side of I-90, take the Hyak exit to the boat launch & parking area on the south side of the reservoir. With a year round season, Keechelus should be good for 8 to 12 inch kokanee by early June. Trolling or still fishing is effective and chumming is permitted. Rainbows, cutthroat and burbot are also taken. There is a 16 fish catch limit for kokanee in addition to a 2-fish 12-inch minimum size trout daily limit. The lake is annually stocked with kokanee fry.
The lake is closed to fishing for bull trout; please carefully release any bull trout that are inadvertantly hooked.
Keechelus gets light fishing pressure, with poor boat launching after the reservoir is drawn down in late summer. Caution should be taken if fishing during the winter months due to snow and ice conditions. There is a Forest Service boat launch at the upper (southwest) end of the lake.

Cool Tool Day
22/03/2011 § 3 Comments
Thanks to Bronwyn Guiton for this inspiring piece detailing how students at University of British Columbia hacked their LIS education.
Last fall, students at the School of Library, Archives, and Information Studies at University of British Columbia were invited to the school's first ever Cool Tool Day sponsored by the school's local ASIS&T chapter. The event was loosely inspired by TEDTalks, Ignite, and the tool/tip of the week segments on the TWiT network podcasts.
During the school's common lunch hour, students gathered in the computer classroom to hear or give 5-minute presentations on a tech tool that was making library school more interesting, more enriching, and/or more fun. Presenters had to keep to a strict 5-minute limit, (they could request a 10-minute slot in advance if needed in the sequel events). Afterwards, there were free snacks and coffee to encourage students to stick around and chat.

Post subject: Base Commanding Officer (CO) Nominations
Hi everyone, in this thread we'll be accepting nominations for Base Commanding Officer (CO).
According to the Rebel Legion charter, nominations may be made starting 12:01 A.M. EST September 1st and continue until 11:59 P.M. EST, September 10th.
All nominations must be seconded. A member may nominate themselves but that will require a second and third nomination. Standing officers must post their desire to seek another term or if they decline to seek another term (no response is considered a decline). A second is not required for standing officers.
If there are no nominations made for a particular office by 11:59 P.M. EST September 10th, then the officers holding these positions will remain in office. If a standing Outpost or Base Commander chooses not seek another term and no nominations are made for that unit, the XO must accept or decline being promoted to CO. If the XO declines (no response is considered a decline) then the Legion Council is empowered to appoint a new CO or to consider having the unit absorbed into a neighboring unit due to lack of leadership.
Also please be sure to participate in the nominations for Legion Council, Legion Commanding Officer (LCO) and any Detachments or other sub-units you belong to.

awww, shucks, y'all like me. YOU REALLY LIKE ME! except for Crystal, cuz she don't know me yet
I'm not sure how this all works, but I think I'll be hitting reserve status soon because I think I'm soon hitting a year from my last troop. With the wedding planning, dance lessons, the actual wedding, getting stuck over seas during the honeymoon, fight practices, performing at Ren faires and also working in boothes at the afore mentioned faires, the last 9 months has been really really busy. I'm still booked solidly on the weekends through late October and I'm hoping for a little downtime after that.
While I totally appreciate the nomination (I really and honestly do), and as much as I'd love to accept, I cannot. I also think that I haven't been doing this trooping stuff long enough to be a C.O. of a base.
I will nominate Matt Fagan as base C.O. and John Alexson as X.O.

I am honored to have been nominated as Commanding Officer, although with that being said I do not think I have the experience to handle such a position. I would feel much more safe with the nominations suggested by Carlos, nominating Matt Fagan as the C.O. and myself as the X.O.
Kamino means alot to me and I am dedicated to it but I am not ready for the responsibility of C.O.
