Islamic State presses Syria offensive, targets two key government garrisons
A week after seizing a major oilfield in an offensive that left 270 Syrian government soldiers dead, the extremist Islamic State on Thursday targeted two more key government garrisons, posting photos on the Internet of headless bodies the group claims had been soldiers killed in the attacks.
Among the dead, anti-government activists told McClatchy, were Gen. Samir Aslan, the head of military intelligence in Raqqa province, and Gen. Miziad Salameh, the commander of Regiment 121, a major military installation in Hasaka province.
The Islamist forces also launched attacks on government garrisons in Hasaka city and in Deir el Zour, further south.
The death toll from the confrontations was uncertain, but at least 30 soldiers were killed when Islamic State forces overran Division 17, a unit of about 300 based a half-mile outside of Raqqa, the Islamists' administrative capital and the only Syrian provincial capital not in government hands. The base was the largest military facility in eastern Syria still controlled by the government, according to the anti-government Raqqa Media Center.
In Hasaka province, the Islamic State forces succeeded in overrunning part of a base belonging to Regiment 121. As many as 10 soldiers died there after Islamic State forces attacked from three sides, anti-government activists reported.
The pitched battles on multiple fronts were the latest sign that the Islamic State, which previously had avoided direct confrontations with the Syrian army, is now pressing to expel units loyal to President Bashar Assad from the area where it has declared an Islamic caliphate. Previously, the Islamic State and the Syrian army rarely fought, leading some anti-Assad rebel groups to accuse the Islamists of working with the Assad government. But whatever accommodation had existed between the two forces, if there were one, clearly has been abandoned now.
The Islamist State said that its attack on Division 17 outside Raqqa began late Wednesday with the detonation of two suicide bombs. By Thursday morning, the Islamic State had captured the headquarters of one of the division's battalions and had taken control of a strategic hilltop inside the base.
The government responded by shelling the city of Raqqa and firing two SCUD missiles from the Qalamoun area north of Damascus toward Raqqa. Neither missile did any damage, however; one exploded in midair and the other landed harmlessly in an empty area.
Opposition sources in Raqqa said government planes launched 13 air attacks on the city and the Division 17 base. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a Britain-based opposition group that monitors violence in Syria, said that at least 35 Islamic State fighters had been killed or injured. It said the dead and wounded Islamists were taken by ambulance to hospitals in Raqqa.
In Hasaka province, in the country's northeast, government forces in Hasaka city were placed on alert after word of the attack on Regiment 121 circulated. Activists reported that roads leading in to and out of the provincial capital were blocked and fresh checkpoints were thrown up. Still, Islamist forces managed to storm the headquarters in the city of Assad's Baath party and capture or kill an undetermined number of military and civic leaders. Activists said fierce fighting raged throughout the city late Thursday.
Government positions were not the only target of the Islamic State. Masar Press, an opposition news outlet, said the Islamic State also targeted Kurdish fighters in Hasaka, killing an undetermined number.
In nearby Qamishli, activists reported that a huge explosion, apparently the work of the Islamic State, devastated the local headquarters of military intelligence.
By comparison, the clashes in Deir el Zour were relatively minor. The Islamic State, however, had dispatched reinforcements to surround the city's military airport, but those forces had not attacked the facility.
Syria's official media, which is devoting most of its attention to the Israeli "aggression" in Gaza, ignored the Islamic State offensive. But government supporters took to social media to demand that the government launch efforts to rescue both Division 17 and the city of Hasaka.
Activists close to the Islamic State posted on Twitter that the offensives involved 1,400 fighters _ 600 in Raqqa and 800 in Hasaka.
Hammam al Raqqa, an Islamic State activist who was reached via Skype, told McClatchy from Raqqa that after the Islamists "clean" Raqqa, Hasaka and Deir el Zour of regime forces, the jihadis would target Homs and Damascus to the east. Hammam said that the government resistance to Thursday's attacks had been very strong but that it had been overcome by suicidal fighters who "came to die."
He said that most of the fighters involved in the attack were from Azerbaijan and Chechnya, with a few Syrians and Saudis.
Islamist State sympathizers on Twitter blamed U.S.-backed moderate rebels for the delay in the fall of the Assad government, which has withstood more than three years of civil war.
"If they (moderate rebels) only obeyed the Islamic State from the beginning, it would have liberated the whole of Syria," read one tweet. "Islamic State said to them from the beginning: leave us alone to face the infidels . . . but it was 'the damnation' of the dollar 'that prevented them.'"

As his old friend Frank Sinatra might have put it, it was a very good year for Chicago singer Frank D'Rone.
In April, D'Rone turned 80, and in June he overcame a series of health challenges to play a triumphant comeback engagement at the Jazz Showcase. D'Rone sang better than he had in years, his tone warm, his pitch unerring, his sense of rhythm and phrase remarkably relaxed. And then there was his guitar work, as sleekly alluring as ever.
About the same time, D'Rone celebrated the release of what's probably the best recording of a long career, "Double Exposure." The aptly named album showed D'Rone's mastery in two realms: swinging robustly in front of a roaring big band and singing intimately with the sole accompaniment of his jazz guitar.
By the end of the summer, D'Rone was marking his 80th at the Chicago Jazz Festival, albeit at the ignominious Jazz on Jackson stage, where much of the audience had to sit on the filthy street to hear him. Despite the inappropriate setting — why wasn't D'Rone featured on the festival's main stage? — the man turned in a sublimely controlled, irrepressibly inventive set.
He also lured crowds to stages across the city, from the Green Mill in Uptown to Chambers in Niles to uncounted private parties, and a list of invitations awaits him for 2013.
"Thank God, it's been a great year," concedes D'Rone, who's not one to applaud himself publicly.
"The turnout has been great — I've been drawing!" adds the singer, as if surprised by his enduring appeal. "And not just people my age. I see some 25-, 30-year-olds in there, a lot of them, who seem to dig what I've been doing."
D'Rone's parlance may be right out of the jazz-hipster '50s, but his music remains as current — or perhaps we should say as timeless — as anything being sung in jazz today. For no one dispatches jazz standards quite like D'Rone: The way he embellishes a line, stretches a phrase and accompanies himself on guitar reflect a lifetime of developing a singular art.
Every jazz musician aspires to this level of individuality, but D'Rone achieves it virtually every time he steps in front of a microphone, a feat that has no easy explanation. He's the first to acknowledge that he never practices singing or playing the guitar, unless he's studying a new piece of music. Otherwise, he does his experimenting on stage in front of an audience, when the stakes are highest. Perhaps that's why his work always sounds fresh.
Of all D'Rone has accomplished this year, he holds the "Double Exposure" recording as key.
"We did the whole thing in three days," says D'Rone, referring to his collaboration with bandleader-arranger Phil Kelly.
Why feature both big-band and solo tracks?
"It was kind of my idea," D'Rone says. "I've had a lot of people say, 'You should do a CD of just you and guitar.' And I thought a whole CD of me and guitar would be a little boring, so I thought: half and half. … I thought (Kelly's) charts would add to it all."
Indeed they did, though it's a fair bet no one would have complained about an album featuring nothing but D'Rone's supple voice and his evocative guitar playing.
Maybe next time around?

Country Girls in the Big City
|Eliza Adams and her sisters,
Forest Hill Cemetery, Derry, New Hampshire
|The Eliza Adams Exhibit at the
Boarding House Museum, Lowell, Massachusetts
Inside the boarding house there was an interactive exhibit showing some of the girls who worked in the textile mills, including some personal items, photographs and silhouettes. Of all the exhibits, the one I remember most was Eliza Adams from Derry. Her trunk, letters and photograph were behind glass, but a recorded voice of an actress read her letters aloud. It was poignant, and even the little girls were amazed that a girl from Derry lived and worked in those big factories weaving cloth.
Eliza is one of the most famous of the Lowell mill girls, like Lucy Larcom, because her letters to her mother have survived through time. Tens of thousands of girls served in Lowell and other mill cities, but they remain silent witnesses to history. Very few mill girls ever left letters or journals. Through Eliza we learn her daily routine, her friendships, her homesickness, that she attended a reception held for President Tyler, and witnessed a strike.
At age 42 Eliza bought a farm in South Hadley, Massachusetts, where Mary Lyons had her college, Mount Holyoke, the first college for women in America. Years before, Mary Lyons had been an assistant teacher at the Adams Female Academy in Derry. Eliza had attended school in Derry with Mary Lyons, before going to work in Lowell. Eliza Adams adopted two little girls, and fostered several others, and grew prosperous on her farm as a single, independent woman.
Eliza, and her sisters, attended the Adams Female Academy in Derry, which had been founded by her uncle, Jacob Adams, who left a bequest to the school. Later, after working at the mills in Lowell, she went to Ipswich to work in another mill and also attend the Ipswich Female Seminary founded by Zilpah Grant, another teacher from Derry's Female Academy. Letters from Eliza to both Zilpah and Mary Lyons survive in the archives at Mount Holyoke College. Zilpah Grant and Mary Lyons are some of the most famous educators mentioned in Feminist History courses.
What is amazing is that Eliza did nothing unusual by today's standards. She went to school, educated herself with her own earnings, bought property and was a single mother. She did not go off to Lowell to work in the mills with the aim of finding a husband or man to help her in life. However, in the mid 1800s these were rare events, and probably considered quite odd. Letters do survive over time, but most letters we see from this time period are written by men. To read about Eliza's accomplishments is wonderful, but it is also just as nice to read about her daily work life, and her homey remarks back to her mother back on the farm in Derry.
The Eliza Adams Lineage:
Gen. 1. Robert Adams was born in England in 1602; married to Eleanor Wilmot and resided in Newbury, Massachusetts. Robert Adams first came to Ipswich, Massachusetts in 1635, bringing his wife and his first two children. He resided in Salem and removed to Newbury in 1640. His first wife, Eleanor, died on 12 June 1677 and married second 6 February 1678 to Sarah (Glover) Short, the widow of Henry Short. He died on 12 October 1682, and his widow died on 24 October 1697 in Newbury.
Gen. 2. Sergeant Abraham Adams, born in 1639 in Salem, Massachusetts; married on 10 November 1670 to Mary Pettengill, daughter of Richard Pettengill and Joanna Ingersoll, born on 6 Jul 1652 and died on 19 September 1705. He was a corporal in the militia of 1685 to 1693, and became a sergeant in 1703. They resided in Newbury, Massachusetts. They had fourteen children. He died in August 1714 in Newbury.
Gen. 3. Richard Adams, born in Newbury on 22 November 1693; married on 12 December 1717 to Susannah Pike, daughter of John Pike and Lydia Little, born on 3 April 1697 and died on 17 October 1754. They resided in Newbury and had ten children
Gen. 4. Deacon Edmund Adams, youngest child of Richard, born 24 October 1740 in Newbury; married first on 22 November 1764 to Hannah Thurston, she died on 14 September 1807; he married second about 1811 to Mrs. Betsey Kimball of Hampstead, New Hampshire. Edmund Adams removed to Derry, New Hampshire and settled on the farm belonging to Deacon James Adams, a first comer to Nutfield. Deacon Edmund Adams had ten children by his first wife, and one by his second wife.
Gen. 5. Edmund Adams, eighth child of Deacon Edmund, born in Newbury on 3 April 1777; married in 1808 to Elizabeth Carr. She died on 2 May 1858 and he died on 8 September 1858. They resided in Derry and had eight children.
Edmund's brother, Jacob Adams, the youngest child, was born 14 Jan 1785 in Newbury, and died unmarried. Jacob was the founder of the Derry Female Academy.
Gen. 6. Eliza Adams, fourth child of Edmund, born on 15 January 1815 in Derry; died unmarried in 12 November 1881. She is buried with her parents in Forest Hills Cemetery, Derry.

Harper 'let down' by Senator Patrick Brazeau
CTVNews.ca Staff
Published Friday, February 8, 2013 9:24AM EST
Last Updated Friday, February 8, 2013 10:04PM EST
Prime Minister Stephen Harper said Friday he feels "let down" after a senator he appointed to the upper chamber, Patrick Brazeau, was charged with sexual assault.
Addressing a crowd in Vancouver Friday, where he and Heritage Minister James Moore were announcing new tough-on-crime legislation, Harper did not hide his disappointment.
"Obviously the situation with Sen. Brazeau is terrible, it is extremely appalling and disappointing. We all feel very let down," Harper said, before adding a caveat.
"That should not, obviously, obscure the fact that most people in the Senate work very hard and take their responsibilities very seriously," he said.
On the question of whether he would ask for Brazeau's resignation from the Senate, Harper said he would leave that to the upper chamber and its "strengthened process" now in place to deal with such matters.
"The events that we are speaking of here are very recent in nature," Harper told reporters. "Obviously, in the recent period, something has been going very wrong and that is the reason for the situation that has developed and that situation will be dealt with by the courts."
The prime minister's comments came just hours after Brazeau was charged with assault and sex assault and released on $1,000 bail. He was arrested Thursday after police responded to a 911 call from his Gatineau, Que. home and spent the night in custody.
The leader of the government in the Senate, Marjory Lebreton, announced Friday that a motion will be introduced next week to place Brazeau on a leave of absence. Brazeau's access to Senate resources, such as office use and travel funds, will also be curtailed, she said.
Brazeau, who was removed from the federal Conservative Party caucus Thursday, will continue to sit as an independent member of the Senate and collect his $132,000 salary.
Under the terms of his release, the 38-year-old senator must remain 150 metres away from the alleged victim and is barred from possessing a firearm. His next court date is on March 22.
Before leaving the courthouse, Brazeau paid his bail and filled out some papers at the court office and was then escorted through a crush of reporters shouting questions as he tried to leave. He did not respond to any of the reporters.
Meanwhile, the Senate board of internal economy said Friday an external auditor will review Brazeau's housing declarations and expenses, along with those of two other senators.
On Wednesday, CTV News reported Brazeau used his former father-in-law's address in a First Nations community when he claimed an aboriginal income tax exemption from 2004 to 2008.
Brazeau, who has publicly called on aboriginal leaders to be more financially accountable, listed the residence on the Kitigan Zibi First Nation in Quebec as his mailing address for four years, unbeknownst to his ex-wife's father.
Brazeau has also faced questions over claiming his father's Maniwaki, Que. home as his primary residence, which allowed him to claim a taxpayer-subsidized housing allowance even though he rents a home in Gatineau, much closer to Parliament Hill.
Canadian senators can charge up to $21,000 in housing and meal expenses annually, if their primary residence is located more than 100 kilometres away from Ottawa.
Before he was released from custody on Friday, Brazeau told the court his main residence was in
Maniwaki, but prosecutors noted a different address was on official court documents.
CTV News has also learned that Brazeau was delinquent on his child support payments. Revenue Quebec ordered a salary garnishment for Brazeau to pay $800 per month in child support for his oldest son. Sources say a second order required him to pay about $4,000 in arrears.
"I am fully up to date with payments I have been ordered to pay," Brazeau said in an email to CTV News.

Beware the evils of Kit-Kats - they're immoral apparently.

Im really looking foward to Euro 04, i like England's chances, i would be a lot more confident if they had a better keeper, but i think they have a good shot anyway. Im tipping France, like most people are, they hae the top players in great form, Holland have a team you can never count out, Italy have great players, you can never write off Germany and Czech Republic look like good outsiders. My top 3 picks are
1st: France
2nd: Holland
3rd: Czech Republic
France will require Zinedine Zidane to find his true form, Denmark really need Jesper Gronkjaer to be more consistent. Gronkjaer isnt a bad player, but needs to show more consistentcy in his game.
Greece may surprise a few.
England will fall at the last hurdle like they always do.
I haven't really taken notice of recent friendlies so I wouldn't know who's on form to win.
Friendlies don't make much sense any more with 11 substitutions etc.
England will, I think, go out in the semis.
Still stand by my Germany bet as value.
Group A (Portugal, Greece, Spain, Russia) analaysis:
Portugal - Have home ground advantage and the backing of their home crowd. They are a solid side, however some of their stars like Rui Costa, Luis Figo are getting on a bit, and players like Cristiano Ronaldo are yet to establish themselves at international level. The fact that they didnt have to qualify and havent played a competitive international in two years when this tournament start may actually count against them.
Spain - One of the under achievers considering the talent they have available. Raul hasnt been in the greatest form this year at Real Madrid, but they have talented up and comers in Fernando Torres and Jose Antonio Reyes. Their defence leaves a lot to be desired, but a blessed in a world class goalkeeper in Ikar Casallas whom I consider the 3rd best keeper in the world.
Greece - Could surprise a few. They finished above Spain in the qualifyers which is a creditable performance in its self. They have some good midfielders. I'm not an expert in Greek football, but dont be surprised if they better then expected.
Russia - Out in the group stage. Wales are appealing their spot in the tournament, but have little chance of success (Wales winning their appeal).
[QUOTE=Craig]Ikar Casallas whom I consider the 3rd best keeper in the world.QUOTE]
VERY overrated IMO. Good shot stoper - parries way too much on crosses/shots he should catch - that leads to a lot if goals I've noticed.

Well who do you consider to be the top goal keepers in the world?
1) KahnOriginally Posted by Craig
2) Schwarzer
3) Friedel
4) Recber
5) Buffon
6) Lehmann
7) Coupet
8) Dida
9) Canizares
10) Cassilas
11) carini
12) Dudek
Khan? IMO he hasnt been his best this season and made a horrible blunder v Werder Bremem and I have doubts over his true form. Schwarzer is good, but not second best.
Lehmann has been prone to a few blunders this season, basic ones that is and I find it surprising he hasnt been red carded yet, given that he has been given one to many yellow cards.
Dudek? IMO he sometimes lacks confidence and has when Kirkland has been fit, Kirkland has been Liverpool's number 1. His dad will get somewhere in the vincinty of £100,000 when Kirkland makes his debut for his country.
Top 5:
4=Van der Sar

Why use electronic tags?
The traditional way to assess populations of large marine vertebrates was to observe their distribution from a ship or plane. While a lot can be learned using this method, it is limited in that animals can only be observed at the ocean's surface and in regions reachable by ships or planes. This method is also time consuming and, quite often, very cost- and resource-intensive. In contrast, electronic tags allow us to follow the animals wherever they go, independent of where the tags were originally deployed, providing more accurate information over a larger geographic range. For example, prior to the deployment of electronic tags, northern elephant seals were thought to range just offshore along the west coast of North America (Figure 1A), but data obtained using electronic tags show they utilize most of the northeastern Pacific Ocean (Figure 1B).
Figure 1. Distribution of Northern elephant seals as determined using boat and plane based surveys(from Riedman 1990)18. B. A kernel density plot showing the distribution of northern elephant seals determined using satellite telemetry. In addition to a more realistic distribution, the figure shows areas of relative use.
Electronic tags generate a sequence of data points taken at regular intervals (a time series) that can last from months to years and provide researchers with information used to identify animal behaviors and associated habitats. Depending on the type of tag deployed, scientists can acquire a variety of data including simple surface tracks (Figure 2A), tracks with diving behavior (Figure 2B), or a record of the physical characteristics of the animals' environment (Figure 2C), such as temperature, salinity, chlorophyll, and light level.
Figure 2. Tracks of Southern elephant seals in the western Antarctic Peninsula. A. Only the surface track. B. Surface track along with diving behavior. C. Temperature and salinity profiles that can be obtained to provide data on the physical environment the animals are moving through. Figure from Costa et al. 2010a.9
Such behavioral data are important in identifying differences in the movement patterns and habitat utilization of different species. For example, some species may travel over considerable distances (e.g., Southern elephant seals), while others may remain within a smaller home range (e.g., Weddell seals; Figure 3). Several international efforts have deployed electronic tags across ocean basins and on multiple species, making possible unprecedented observations of marine organisms on a global scale.
Figure 3. Differences in the movement patterns of Southern elephant seals (yellow), crabeater seals (red), and Weddell seals in (green) are shown along the Antarctic Peninsula. The tracks cover the same time period during 2007. Figure from Costa et al. 2010a.9.
Scientists use a variety of different tags depending on what data are needed and how the data are gathered and transmitted. There are three primary methods for tracking marine organisms:
- Archival (data storage) tags. Archival tags record data as a time series from sensors that measure depth (pressure), water temperature, salinity, light level, and the animal's body temperature. The major limitation of archival tags is that, to obtain the data, the tags must be physically recovered. However, careful selection of animals, such as use on exploited species where a reward is offered, has provided a wealth of information on the foraging behavior and habitat utilization of a large group of marine organisms.1,2 Movement patterns can be derived from archival tag data by examining changes in light level to determine local sunrise and sunset times which, along with an on board clock, can be used to calculate approximate longitude and latitude. These locations can then be further corrected using sea surface temperatures.1 These tags collect large quantities of detailed data, allowing scientists to study both fine- and large-scale behavioral patterns, migratory routes, and physiology, all in relation to the surrounding environment. One of the most sophisticated tags is the D-tag, which has been used to monitor the movement patterns of beaked whales in three dimensions and can indicate when the animals are echo-locating and even capturing prey (Figure 4).3
Figure 4. Representative sections of dive profiles from Ziphius cavirostris (A) and Mesoplodon densirostris (B). Intervals with regular click vocalizations are indicated by a thicker trace and times of buzzes are indicated by small open circles. The depth of occurrence of buzzes heard in the audio recording during the two dives is shown in the histogram on the right-hand side of each panel. Figure from Tyack et al 2006.3.
- Satellite tags, or satellite-linked data recorders. Satellite-linked data recorders have expanded our understanding of the fine-scale movements of marine birds,4 sea turtles,5 sharks,6,7 and marine mammals.8,9 These tags are fisheries independent, meaning they do not require recapture of the animal to acquire the data. However, because the antenna on the satellite transmitter must be out of the water to communicate with an orbiting satellite, the technology has been used primarily on air-breathing vertebrates that surface regularly. For large fish and other marine animals that remain continuously submerged, a pop-up satellite archival tag has been developed.1 Pop-up satellite tags combine data storage tags with satellite transmitters that communicate with Argos satellites. The Argos system records the transmissions from satellite tags and downloads these data back to Earth providing locations of varying precision, with the most accurate being within 150 meters (m). However, locations of such quality are quite rare in marine species, and most locations are only accurate to within a kilometer or worse.10 A new tag has recently been developed by the Sea Mammal Research Unit of St Andrews University, Scotland, that uses cell phone technology to transmit data that have been stored on the tag.11
- GPS tags. The recent development of tags that use the global positioning system (GPS) has significantly improved the precision of animal movement data to 30 m. While navigational GPS tags have been widely available for terrestrial animals, their application to marine animals was limited because the time required to obtain position information was greater than the time a marine animal typically spends at the surface. The development of Fastloc™ (Wildtrack Telemetry Systems Ltd., Leeds, England), a system that obtains GPS satellite information in less than a second and then compresses the information so that it can be transmitted using ARGOS, solved this problem. This system captures the GPS satellite signals, identifies the observed satellites, calculates their approximate ranges, and produces a location estimate that can be transmitted quickly. Final locations are processed after the data are received using archived GPS satellite position data accessed through the Internet. Along with significantly greater location resolution, Fastloc™ GPS provides many more locations per unit time, thus allowing unprecedented observations of fine-scale animal movements (Figure 5).
Figure 5. A track from a female Cape fur seal foraging off the western coast of South Africa obtained using both Argos (black) and Fastloc™ GPS (yellow) locations. Figure from Costa et al. 2010b.10.
Animals as oceanographers
In addition to increasing our ability to study the movements and foraging behaviors of animals that were not otherwise possible, these new electronic tags provide oceanographic data in geographic areas where traditional conventional methods are limited or absent (Figure 6). Such data are particularly lacking in the polar oceans where ship time is limited (especially in the winter), cloud cover limits the use of satellite remote sensing, and currents or ice limit or prohibit use of floats.
Figure 6. A Weddell seal, Leptonychotes weddelli, is shown wearing a Sea Mammal Research Unit Conductivity Temperature Depth tag in McMurdo Sound Antarctic. Photograph by Dan Costa.
The absence of traditional sources for oceanographic data, in combination with an abundance of marine mammals that are relatively easy to handle and that cover large areas of the ocean throughout the year, make the polar oceans ideal places to use marine animals to collect oceanographic data. Additionally, different water masses have different temperature and salinity signatures that can be used to trace the origin of each water mass. Using sensors that measure the temperature and salinity of the water the animals swim through, these tags can be highly cost-effective platforms for collecting detailed oceanographic data on a scale not possible with conventional methods.10,12,13
What questions can animals help answer?
A prime example of how this work can address oceanographic questions, as well as provide insight into animal behavior, can be seen in the results of SEaOS. This program deployed conductivity-temperature-depth tags on 85 elephant seals simultaneously at Kerguelen, South Georgia, Macquarie, and the South Shetlands between January 2004 and April 2006.14 Nine times as many temperature and salinity profiles were collected south of 60°S as part of this effort than during previous efforts using traditional methods.12 Combined with conventional data, the seal data extended maps deep into ice-covered areas (Figure 7) and offered a circumpolar view of high latitude fronts within the Southern Ocean.12 Animal-collected oceanic data are thus complementing more traditional methodologies and are contributing to our knowledge of the global ocean.
Figure 7. Temperature field at 500 m from 2004 to 2005 from the Coriolis database and from the merged Coriolis and elephant seal databases. Mean front positions during the same period derived from Coriolis (A) or Coriolis and seal temperature field at 500 m (B, thick lines), and from altimetry (thin lines in A and B). Figure from Charrassin et al. 2008.12.
An equally important component of the SEaOS effort was the ability to examine the foraging behavior of elephant seals throughout much of the Southern Ocean and to define their foraging habitat in terms of physical oceanographic characteristics.14 Using changes in animal drift rate measured during periods when the seal was not swimming as an indicator of body condition (e.g., fatter seals tend to be more buoyant while leaner seals tend to sink), combined with salinity and temperature data obtained from the seals' tags, researchers were able to identify characteristics of water masses where elephant seals had the greatest foraging success. These areas were associated with warm, deep, nutrient-rich water called circumpolar deep water, which travels in the Antarctic Circumpolar Current and upwells along the continental shelf.
Tracking tags can improve marine conservation and management
The importance of tracking data to the conservation and management of marine living resources is becoming increasingly clear. As more data become available on a wider range of species across the ocean, marine resource managers, as well as governmental and intergovernmental regulating authorities, can use the data to better inform their decisions about the following:
- Military and commercial operations. As described above, electronic tags can be used to identify patterns of habitat utilization by marine animals. Such information is critical in establishing times and locations where oil and gas development, naval activities, or shipping and research activities can be undertaken when marine mammals are not present. Electronic tags have also been used to monitor the response of marine mammals to underwater sounds generated as a result of these activities.15
- Management of fisheries and bycatch. Electronic tags can provide critical information for the management of marine species that are directly (e.g., tuna and sharks) or indirectly (e.g., leatherback sea turtles, shearwaters, and albatross) harvested by commercial fishing operations. Tracking data clearly demonstrate that many species of marine animals require multinational protection.2 For example, Laysan albatrosses tagged at Guadalupe Island, Mexico, have been found within the California Current System along the western coast of North America, in addition to the exclusive economic zones of at least three different countries in the eastern Pacific region. Tagging of Pacific bluefin tuna revealed that fish swimming to the eastern Pacific Ocean from Japan are so overexploited that few live long enough to make the trans-Pacific migrations back to their spawning grounds. And by tagging and tracking leatherback sea turtles, researchers discovered the animals using predictable travel corridors shaped by oceanographic features,16 leading the International Union for the Conservation of Nature to pass a resolution calling for the conservation of leatherback sea turtles in the open seas.
- The protection of endangered species. An important product of the Tagging of Pacific Predators (TOPP) program has been the identification of key geographic areas where the establishment of marine protected areas (MPAs) could protect critically endangered species. A specific example of the success of the TOPP program in this respect is the creation of an MPA off the coast of Baja California to protect loggerhead sea turtles.17 Similarly, tracking data helped lead to the listing of the black-footed albatross as an endangered species by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, and BirdLife International relied on them for deliberations within the international Agreement for the Conservation of Albatrosses and Petrels.
Developments in sensors and data storage, transmission, and recovery methods are increasing our capability to monitor and study animals in nature. The development of new tags is also being accompanied by better analytical methods to process the complex data that are now being collected. As a result, our ability to understand the ocean and its life forms has been significantly enhanced by, and is increasingly dependent on, advances in instrumentation. These advances are leading to an increased awareness of the ocean and the need to wisely manage and protect this last frontier on Earth.

August 17, 2005
LOS ANGELES ─ The next UCLA Anderson Forecast Conference titled, "The Latino Impact on the California Economy," will feature the quarterly UCLA Anderson Forecast and will focus on the Latino community and its affect on California's economy. The conference will take place on September 28, 2005 at UCLA Anderson School of Management.
UCLA Anderson Forecast economists Edward Leamer, Christopher Thornberg, Michael Bazdarich and Ryan Ratcliff will present their quarterly economic Forecast for the nation, state, and region. Following, industry experts will bring their perspectives on how the Latino community has and will continue to impact California's economy.
In 1970 Latinos made up 12% of the population of California, while today this number is well over a third. Even more significantly Latino's make up almost half of the population under 24 years of age. While this diverse group still only represents a quarter of the buying power within the state, this imbalance is starting to right itself, and Latinos will soon represent the single largest purchasing block in the state. Any business planning for their future in our economy needs to understand this important demographic trend, and what it implies for their sales, their workforce, and even their competition.
Focusing on these and other essential issues to California's economy, the Conference will feature a number of distinguished speakers including, Monica Lozano (publisher, La Opinion), David Kostin (chief Sector Strategist, Goldman Sachs), Leo Estrada (Professor, UCLA), Roberto Barragan (president, Valley Economic Development Corp), Vincent Luizzi (market president San Fernando Valley, Wells Fargo) and Alberto Alvarado (district director, Los Angeles District Office, SBA). A special topic panel will lead discussions on two important topics:
Critical Mass: Why the Latino market should be drawing your attention.
- Growth in the Latino market: A look at the numbers.
- Navigating the Latino consumer market: What works? What doesn't?
Overcoming obstacles: What will allow Latino business to prosper?
- Capital access for local emerging markets.
- Growing Latino entrepreneurs.

Have Bieber Fever?
I wish Hambone would go back into his hole
All of the above
Have Bieber Fever?
Chuck Norris has a grizzly bear carpet in his room. The bear isn't dead it is just afraid to move.
Did Hambone just come out of his shell again like Lady GAGA? Go figure. Can anyone smell a sicko Madonna wann-a- be here?
I just ordered a bird nest mask.
Chuck Norris has a grizzly bear carpet in his room. The bear isn't dead it is just afraid to move.
Somebody needs to tell Keith to get over here. Deal with the Almonds some other time.
Regards, Barry
Certainly not! I know for a fact that as long as you are feeding Nutra Bee you are immune from anything like that.
I voted yes, but only because I found out that Bieber has his cell phone ring programed to Mike Gundy yelling "I'm a man. I'm 40!" and that Mike Gundy has his cell phone ring programmed to a Bieber song.
For the record, if I've heard a Justin Bieber song, I don't know it.
I'm more of an Arcade Fire listener myself.
I talked to keith today, he is still moving bees. I told him about this poll.He asked if Justin Beiber was the guys name from leave it to beaver? I told him no he is a different guy. Also told him he should be ashamed of himself, a guy his size down in the front of a concert would block several rows of teenage girls from seeing the show.... Right after that keith had to put down the phone as the CHP was following him so being on cell phone could get him a ticket.. maybe he just wanted to listen to Justin.......

Come on guys. Give the guy a break. He's probably singing like Bieber all the way to the bank with with his golden Almond egg. It's alway the successful that are picked on by the hoi polloi. Break out of your shell. Go GAGA. Join the Nutrabee way.
Sing the new Nutrabee jingle with me please:
Bees out of our ears
We're smarter than foxes
Bees better this year
All snug in blue boxes
All hail to thee.
"You new Jackson gold"
"We're going to see the (almond) elephant."
"Amazing", "We're sold"
Bees left and bees right
Bees up all around.
Nutrabee: "We love thee"
"You talk of the town."
Bees buzzing with joy
When we whisper your name
"Sure beats old beepro soy"
Your virtues "proclaim"
FYI: If your not familiar with the term "going to see the elephant" please check here.
Very enlightening I'm a wiser man today. Perhaps, though, he just went to "see a man about a horse"
I think we've got a Nutrabee distributer amongst us, Honey-4-All.
Regards, Barry
Not really. In fact not at all.
If you check my other post you would surmise that I have known Keith a long time. I have never bought, sold, or done anything else with Nutrabee besides getting a small year old sample from him about two years ago. Our chickens found it and ate it before I was able to try it on the bees. Always was wondering why those eggs gave me a buzz.
We can give Sir Keith all the hard times we want and I'm sure he'll take it well. I have bought bulk bees from him as well as sat next to him in the almonds for many a year. I can attest that whatever he does to those bees it has surely has worked so far. Quite admirably might I say.
My attempt at the jingle was to commend Keith for work well done as well as to satirize the rush to California for all the (Almond) Gold. Keith's house literally sits on top of the tunnels of one of California largest producing gold mines in Jackson. Still sitting on a pile of gold he is. Be that nutrabee or old AU. There is an adit at the end of his road for anyone who wants to check.
I have a neighbor with 250 hives who always marvels at how I can keep the number I do. He was here last night picking a couple of extra hives for the Almonds to finish his load. When he mentioned the same thing again last night I chuckled to myself before my thoughts raced to the fact that I was sure glad he didn't know Keith. The old guy might have had a heart attack on my driveway just pondering the amount of bee work one guy could do by himself had I mentioned Keith.
As I have said before I would be willing to place a bet on a nice dinner with anyone who would be willing to do a little frame count competition (in the Almonds) where we pitted Keith"s bees against 10 randomly selected "competitors. who use the "other" pollen supplements. If Keith's up to it I would love to "sponsor" a such an event. That is as long as I get a 5% cut on all the increased sales he's going to get.
Hey Keith. Stay safe moving those last loads. Phil
I was pullin' your leg!
Which, by the way, has a criminal background, and those that used to steal from people in crime ridden London in the olden days... they used to literally have wires to trip people up which pulled on their leg, then someone else took their valuables whilst they were feeling rather compromised on the floor.
Regards, Barry
Man... lol I need to get out from underneath the bus more often, Hey Bone, I see it must be snowing in Texas again.
NUTRA-BEE feed supplements
I do get a little more insane when it snows.

March has been a rough month for Maryland Republicans.
In Annapolis, they watched helplessly as Democrats worked their way through an ambitious ideological wish list that includes new taxes and spending, death penalty repeal, Second Amendment limitations, wind power subsidies, and other proposals anathema to Republicans.
Seven of 12 GOP senators — apparent victims of "Stockholm syndrome" —– supported Gov. Martin O'Malley's budget, which includes $1 billion in new spending.
And just as state Democrats rammed through an 87 percent hike in state gas taxes, David Ferguson, executive director of the Maryland Republican Party, canceled a planned training session for candidates to embark on a quixotic national "tour" to preach the evils of a possible Martin O'Malley presidency.
Clearly, the state GOP has reached new levels of dysfunction.
That dysfunction was evident last year when two former state party chairs hired by gaming interests sent out a "Republican Voter Guide" to encourage the false impression that expanded gambling carried the imprimatur of all GOP leaders — even though a majority of the party's legislators opposed it.
It was evident again when interim MDGOP chair Diana Waterman, perhaps best known in political circles for owning a black cow named "Oprah," abruptly removed Republican National Committeewoman Nicolee Ambrose from the RNC's influential Rules Committee. Ms. Ambrose, an outsider, had defeated Waterman ally Audrey Scott in last year's contentious national committeewoman race.
Ms. Waterman's Rules Committee pick, establishment favorite Louis Pope, briefly served as treasurer of the committee responsible for planning the party's 2012 convention in Tampa, Fla., but was dismissed by RNC Chairman Reince Priebus amid reports of high salaries, profligate spending and cronyism among convention staff.
Much of the dysfunction stems from the fact that the MDGOP seems to have bifurcated into two factions that might be called the "Ins" and the "Outs."
The Ins consists of party regulars, especially products of the Republican State Central Committee apparatus.
The Outs are activists who got engaged through activities such as blogging, working on a campaign, running for office or involvement in national political organizations.
The Ins are vested in the status quo. The Outs want to change what they regard as a culture of failure.
The Ins believe in oligarchy, choosing to recycle or resurrect the same individuals for various party roles and assignments. The Outs are receptive to attracting new faces and new energy to the party, and regard non-central-committee-centric achievements as strengths, not liabilities.
The Ins value helping their allies, cronies, or — in some cases — family members. More often than not, the Outs are frustrated citizen-activists who just want to win elections.
Doubtful that the GOP's fortunes in Maryland will ever change, the Ins often seek party office out of a sense of entitlement, or as a reward for past service, whereas the Outs seek party office because they want to do something with it.
The Ins are people of long service and, in some cases, scant accomplishments. The Outs are often raucous, inexperienced newcomers to politics who are unafraid to deal with the consequences of pushing a resistant and reactionary establishment to embrace change.
If the Republican Party is ever to brighten its prospects in Maryland, mitigating the intramural rivalries between the party's Ins and Outs would be a good starting point. Unfortunately, the current central committee system encourages such divisions. Dr. Seuss famously wrote about the rivalry between Sneetches with green stars on their bellies versus those without them. Among Republicans, the same dynamic often exists between elected central committee members versus unelected activists.
Meanwhile, the structure of the central committee itself causes time to be wasted on personalities, petty rivalries, meaningless resolutions, arcane rules disputes, and other activities that, at the end of the day, leave the party's fortunes unchanged.
The MDGOP needs to move past the elitism of the central committee system and toward a new model that encourages integration of all factions.
The party could accomplish this by impaneling a diverse group of activists to work on a five-year strategic plan, forming a fundraising roundtable to encourage cooperation and information sharing, creating a kitchen cabinet of party elders to advise the current crop of party leaders, and changing party rules to allow elected officials to hold party office.
With so few Republicans in Maryland, the party can't afford to live in a house divided. Forget about the disputes and petty rivalries. Let's just find a way to win.

Keeping My Home Business Running
Setting up a home business and being successful with it, is not an easy feat. Most people who attempt doing this, ultimately, fail. However, there are people who do succeed. If you are serious about setting up a home business, follow these pieces of advice below and you will be on your way to being successful with a home business.
Find out what the laws are in your state and county, if you need a business license. You can check with a lawyer or an accountant if you like, but you should also be able to find this information online. Depending on where you live, and what you are selling, you may also need to collect state sales tax. Just make sure that you know and follow all applicable laws.
When you are going to establish a home business, you need to think things through carefully before investing in your decision. This careful thought will make sure that you are successful at it and don't get yourself in over your head when beginning the home business venture.
As you begin your home business, make sure that you believe in the product or company that you are supporting. It is very difficult to try and sell a product that you would not want to own yourself. Similarly, if you do not believe in a company's message or business practices, you will not work as hard for them.
If you are out of stock in a particular item, be sure to let your clients know about it. It's very upsetting to order an item and find that you won't receive it for weeks. If a product is on back-order and can't be delivered swiftly, say that prominently on your website, and offer them a suitable substitute to it.
Try to keep regular work hours when working from home. The freedom of a home business can be very convenient, but your body's clock can take a beating if you change your routine too frequently. Try to keep regular work hours and sleep routines in order to keep your mind and body working at its best!
Many people think that they can start a business at home with nothing and make it work. While this might be the case sometimes, you should always have an emergency fund and an investment set aside, to help grow your business and offset any sudden emergencies. A good business has a good cushion, and does not red line its way to the top.
Keeping My Home Business Running you should never try to work for a company that has ethics and values that do not mirror your own. It is hard to convince someone to invest in a business idea or product that you are selling if they can tell that you are not a fan of it yourself.
A website will do amazing things for your home business. It will attract a wider number of prospects, present you as a professional, and serve as the storefront to your business. Unless you are a whiz at site design, hire someone to make your site look as professional as possible. You really don't want to skimp on this - first impressions last.
You need to make sure that you get business cards made for your home business right away. It is important to have the business cards so that you can hand them out whenever you meet potential clients. The card should contain the company name, phone number and address at the very least so that the clients are able to easily contact your business.
Therefore, the above article demonstrates that success with home business is possible. However, you will have to put in some hard work, especially in the beginning, in order to get your business to take off. If you don't have the determination, then do not attempt to start a home business. But, if you do, then apply these pieces of advice and do it.

Monday marked the first of four workouts the Houston Cougars will have in spring football this week. Early on Monday evening they closed the book on their fourth overall practice and their second in full pads.
A few observations from Monday:
- Through four practices, it looks like the Cougars have been pretty consistent in what the front seven is going to look like. Up front the first group has almost always had Dominic Miller at nose tackle, Radermon Scypion at the other tackle and a rotation at the two end spots: Lloyd Allen and Zeke Riser on one side; Kelvin King and Eric Braswell on the other. At middle linebacker, Everett Daniels has gotten the consistent repetitions with the No. 1s while Efrem Oliphant has received mostly second-team reps. Of course, Phillip Steward and Derrick Mathews are flanking Daniels at the outside linebacker spots on the first team.
- Jon Witten got another sack on Monday, the second one I've seen him get in team drills. He appears to have pretty good speed off the edge and it'll be interesting to see if by moving him from linebacker to end, if he continues to practice well, whether he'll be able to crack that defensive end rotation at some point. But he's taking the opportunity and running with it so far.
- On the receiving end of things, I like what I've seen in the last couple of practices from senior Isaiah Sweeney. If he can stay healthy, which hasn't always been easy for him (in football and track), I think he could be poised for a breakout season. He has more pure speed than just about anybody on the roster and you can see it in the way he comes off the line of scrimmage. That being said, receivers continue to funnel in and out of those packages so the competition is still very much wide open at every spot, it seems.
- There are still several guys getting work on punt returns. The list on Monday included: Casey Martin, Dewayne Peace, Daniel Spencer, Charles Sims, Damian Payne and Wayne Beadle.
Now for today's player spotlight, which is on linebacker Derrick Mathews. Mathews, who is a sophomore, is coming off a stellar freshman season, in which he was second on the team with 106 tackles. After spending last year as an inside linebacker in the Cougars' 3-4 alignment, Mathews returns this year to his high school position as an outside linebacker in the Cougars' new 4-3 alignment under defensive coordinator Jamie Bryant. Below, Mathews talks about that as well as his freshman season and his weight (the always light Mathews said he checks in at 205 pounds these days).
(Note: If you want to go back and check out any of the previous videos, go to the Cougars Spring Football Central page by clicking on the link (or under the "pages" menu on the right, just under my Twitter widget). I'm housing all spring football content there).

Alzheimer's Association commends committee passage of Missing Alzheimer's Disease Patient Alert Program
As the world's leading voluntary health organization in Alzheimer's care, support and research, the Alzheimer's Association® lauds passage of H.R. 2800, The Missing Alzheimer's Disease Patient Alert Program Reauthorization Act, introduced by Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.). The measure, passed today by the House Judiciary Committee, expands important programs that partner with local law enforcement to improve the safety of people living with Alzheimer's disease and other dementias.
More than 5 million Americans are living with Alzheimer's, a progressive, degenerative and fatal disease. As the threat of Alzheimer's continues to touch more people's lives, the safety of these individuals will continue to be a tremendous concern. Many living with Alzheimer's experience profound disorientation in time and space and six out of 10 individuals with dementia will get lost and wander from their homes or care facilities, many doing so repeatedly. This legislation helps individuals with Alzheimer's who wander away from home by reauthorizing a Department of Justice program that helps local law enforcement officials quickly identify wandering dementia patients and reunite them with their families.
"The program is critical in addressing the safety and wandering issues that affect a great number of individuals in the Alzheimer's community," said Robert Egge, Alzheimer's Association vice president of public policy. "The Alzheimer's Association is committed to working with lawmakers, law enforcement and first responders to ensure they are equipped to manage the unique safety challenges of individuals with Alzheimer's. The Association commends this effort to provide much needed solutions to assist a growing Alzheimer's population and applauds the House Judiciary Committee's passage."
The Alzheimer's Association Wandering and Safety Response Initiative has a long history of working with the federal government to addressing safety issues for Alzheimer's families. This multicomponent initiative includes MedicAlert® + Alzheimer's Association Safe Return®, a nationwide emergency response program that assists in the safe and timely return of individuals with Alzheimer's or other dementias that wander and become lost. The program maintains a 98 percent success rate for program enrollees who were reported missing. Another aim of the initiative is to continually seek innovative ways to educate law enforcement and emergency personnel about wandering and safety awareness.
Alzheimer's Association
The Alzheimer's Association is the world's leading voluntary health organization in Alzheimer care, support and research. Our mission is to eliminate Alzheimer's disease through the advancement of research; to provide and enhance care and support for all affected; and to reduce the risk of dementia through the promotion of brain health. Our vision is a world without Alzheimer's. For more information, visit www.alz.org.
