The shape of the 2016 Democratic primary
The headlines today suggest a 2016 Democratic primary that would be fought on very different cultural terrain than in the past.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo plans to propose one of the country's most restrictive bans on assault weapons in his State of the State address Wednesday. Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley, an opponent of capital punishment, might get behind a death penalty repeal effort. Both led recent efforts to pass gay marriage legislation in their states.
As two of the top 2016 Democratic prospects, their forward positioning on issues long thought to be politically radioactive are a sign that some traditional assumptions about where a Democratic nominee needs to stand to win a national election are about to be challenged. After all, we're talking about two of three issues that make up the three G's -- gays, guns and God -- the unholy trinity of wedge issues.
The vague or middle-of-the-road positioning on gun control, gay marriage and the death penalty that marked the 2008 primary between Barack Obama and Clinton now looks to be a vestige of an outdated era – as evidenced by recent gay marriage recalibrations by Clinton and Joe Biden, two other potential 2016 candidates.

Algeria arrests AQIM 'number two'
[Magharebia] Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) suffered another major blow in Algeria on Sunday (December 16th) when its number two boss and main
front man
was captured near Bouira.
The arrest of Salah Gasmi, alias Salah Abou Mohamed, further weakens the leadership of the terrorist group, which is coming under heavy pressure from security forces and is hiding to limit its losses.
The operation took place in the village of Cheurfa in Bouira province, 100 kilometres east of Algiers, according to Tout Sur l'Algerie. Acting on reliable intelligence reports indicating that Gasmi was in the village, security forces laid a trap for him outside a restaurant where he was due to meet his followers.
According to security officers, his capture is important because of his importance to al-Qaeda emir
Abdelmalik Droukdel.
... aka Abdel Wadoud, was a regional leader of the GSPC for several years before becoming the group's supremo in 2004 following the death of then-leader Nabil Sahraoui. Under Abdel Wadoud's leadership the GSPC has sought to develop itself from a largely domestic entity into a larger player on the international terror stage. In September 2006 it was announced that the GSPC had joined forces with al-Qaeda and in January 2007 the group officially changed its name to the
Al-Qaeda Organization in the Islamic Maghreb.
The Droukdel lieutenant was responsible for the terrorist group's propaganda and the co-ordination of the various small groups operating in Kabylie. A computer and communications specialist by profession, he is the suspected
criminal mastermind
of the 2007
suicide kaboom
s in Algiers.
This security operation follows another carried out November 18th on the border between the provinces of Tizi-Ouzou and Bejaia (east of Algiers) in which three
bad boyz were potted
. They included the head of AQIM's military committee, who was also a member of its committee of dignitaries.
This dangerous terrorist, Makhfi Rabah (aka Cheikh Abdenacer), a former member of the Armed Islamist Group (GIA) had been actively sought since 1992.
Another recent operation on August 15th led to the arrest of the chairman of AQIM's judicial committee, Nacib Tayeb (aka Abderrahmane Abou Ishak Essoufi), and two of his henchmen at a Ghardaia checkpoint, reportedly as they were headed to a leadership meeting.
In October, Algerian forces killed Bekkai Boualem (aka Khaled El Mig, the head of external relations for al-Qaeda).
Aziz Hatem (aka Youssef Abou Youssef), the head of AQIM's El-Wenchir brigade, was also recently eliminated by Algerian troops.
These operations carried out by security forces are the fruit of intelligence efforts, stemming from confessions of captured terrorists, the infiltration of terror groups and citizens' tips.

There was a fantastic article about Denyse Schmidt by Meg Cox in the Wall Street Journal this weekend. If you haven't read it yet, you definitely need to, and here's a link. I'm a huge fan of Denyse's work, her self-described "Neo-Hillbilly" style, and this article was a great little peek into how she approaches quilt making.
Her work is so inspiring. I love that it looks distinctly her own; it's fresh and modern yet it has an undeniable link to the past and more "traditional" quilts. Denyse had a new book coming out next year called Modern Quilts: Traditional Inspiration. 20 New Designs with Historic Roots and I'm sure it will be amazing. It is certainly on my must-buy list.
And how amazing is it that there is a major article about quilt making in the Wall Street Journal?! I think that speaks volumes about the role of quilt making today, and even more so, Denyse's influence on the Modern Quilt Movement.

The WWE DVD compilations on Rey Mysterio have been pretty good, but a new Big Vision Entertainment DVD featuring a handful of Rey's matches pre-ECW, WCW and WWE south of the border in Mexico is as good, if not better, than the WWE's pair.
There is no documentary on this DVD, entitled Before They Were Stars: Rey Misterio, Jr., and that may be its one flaw. And calling it a flaw might be unfair because the matches featured tell a story all their own.
Taped commentary does accompany each match and this is a positive of the DVD. Kris Kloss, he of Wrestling Society X fame, calls the matches with Mexican legend Manny Peeples, whose Spanish accent seems a sham. Larry Rivera (XPW) and the legendary lawsuit-seeking Konnan call the matches in Spanish.
One unique part of this DVD is that the matches are viewed from just a single hard camera. There's probably not a ton of room for other cameras in the old bull rings and "auditorios" where the matches happen. The referees are a sideshow in the matches and usually allow weapons and interference. Peeples asks repeatedly what the refs are doing. His pseudo-accent, though, is pretty hilarious. As in Cheech and Chong hilarious.
The six matches include:
Watching Rey wrestle nowadays, when he's not injured, is to some people a privilige. But after watching this compilation, his repertoire in WWE is very limited compared to what he used to do when working with fellow luchadors.
Extras on this single disc include four non-Rey bonus matches including Konnan, Damien 666, La Parka, Ultraman 2000 and more Juventud and Psicosis. Further bonus material is comprised of trailers for five other Big Vision wrestling DVDs.
On the surface, this DVD appears to be just a bunch of matches thrown together and that may very well be the case. But each match is unique on its own terms and this reviewer wishes wrestling like this would be available more readily in North America.
To summarize, this Rey DVD is on par with the WWE's money makers and rightly so. In no uncertain terms, Before They Were Stars: Rey Misterio, Jr. is a simple DVD, but very well done. If it's not part of your collection, it should be. It's that good.

In what is a familiar response to unwelcome news, the power of social networking and online campaigning is being used in a bid to secure the future of two radio stations seemingly under threat as a result of BBC cutbacks.
Rumours that digital radio stations BBC 6Music and the BBC Asian Network may be axed as a means of The Beeb cutting costs are reported in detail in today's Times newspaper. The story is being given credence by the BBC's silence on the matter. The BBC's own website reports that the corporation has issued no denial of plans to close the radio stations.
Twitter users, up in arms at the prospect of losing a much-loved radio station in 6Music, are attempting to get a million retweets to their #savebbc6music posts from around the globe by way of indication of the station's popularity.
A Twibbon (an electronic badge that can be added to a user profile photo) has been created for Twitter user's to demonstrate their support
A petition to save both radio stations has been set up at the Number 10 website.
The petition reports: "The BBC will close two radio stations, shut half its website and cut spending heavily on imported American programmes in an overhaul of services to be announced next month."
In the past three months, audience viewing figures for 6Music have averaged a healthy 695,000. As well as being broadcast on DAB digital radios, listeners can tune in via the internet and on Freeview and Freesat TVs.
Two weeks ago The Guardian warned of the threat to the BBC Asian Network's radio station, which has lost listeners over the past year.
The Times reports indicates that BBC Click and BBC Blast technology microsites are also likely to be shut if the BBC cost-saving measures are implemented.
The BBC has come under fire for the amount it spent on refurbishing its central London offices, securing the rights to show popular foreign-made TV shows such as Mad Men and Heroes and the resources it devotes to sports programming.
While the BBC has made no comment on whether the planned radio station and website closures have been finalised, 6Music presenter Richard Bacon, predicts the station will survive and that the sort of passion and web campaigning inspired by the rumoured shutdown will actually serve to prove the popularity of less mainstream programming.
The Times says Absolute Radio will bid for 6Music should the BBC decide to withdraw funding for it.

Open source has become an important driving force in the smartphone industry and a particularly key area of focus for ST-Ericsson. We believe that open innovation is critical to face the increasing demand on features and the broadening scope of the mobile market. From hardware performance to software platforms and enabling the hundreds of thousands of apps & services running on top of it, the complexity of today's devices has raised incredibly.
Most Open Source initiatives in mobile so far have had been focused on the SW development framework such as Android, MeeGo or the Symbian foundation. However 5 months ago the launch of Linaro was announced, together with Arm and other key partners of the wireless semiconductor industry, to focus on optimization of lower platform layers (kernel, hardware adaptation) and tools.
Open source is also a learning curve for semiconductor companies. Moving from tightly integrated proprietary solutions to open and modular brings its share of new procedures and challenges to deal with. Initiatives like Linaro are helping us to release more and better code to the community.
Linaro was launched to reduce fragmentation of Linux on Arm and allow shorter releasing cycle of Linux products on new hardware platforms . It was stated in the original announcement that every 6 months, Linaro will provide a stable and optimized base for distributions and developers by creating new releases of optimized tools, kernel and middleware software validated for a wide range of SoCs. Of course, the software is not made available only every 6 months but there is a development branch where the latest is continuously updated so that new features are available in real-time.
So far most of the work within Linaro has been focused on the 10.11 release (https://wiki-archive.linaro.org/Releases/1011/TechnicalRequirements ) which contains a large number of optimizations. By using the Linaro kernel, tool chain and C library, any Arm system will be able to run faster and consume less energy.
At ST-Ericsson we dedicated a number of engineers to Linaro related activities and working groups. Our engineers have been involved in multiple work groups focused on diversified topics such as Power Management, Graphics or User Platforms. In the past few months, much effort has been put into learning how to work within Linaro and in such a short time we already see multiple benefits from the initiative:
Access to a great network of highly skilled key developers in open source communities where our experts can contribute with their knowledge and experience as well as share and learn from other experts in participating companies
Linaro will be a focus and convergence area for ST-Ericsson and other companies development efforts on features where we believe we should collaborate. That way, Linaro will enable fast access to high quality software patches that will be contributed to communities. Linaro is also a very professional way to work towards kernel.org and accelerate the upstream of our code. With dedicated resources and focus we are able to introduce new functionality and improvements in a timely fashion.
We will have access to tools and technologies that are in the forefront of technology development and optimized for the type of hardware architectures we are working with.
We will have a forum to discuss with other semiconductor companies which software components need to be "standardized" across different hardware platforms to better address the needs of our customers
We will see first results of Linaro in the November release and thereafter an accelerated utilization as we converge our development efforts and bring in even more of our experts as well as start a dedicated Landing Team focusing on ST-Ericsson hardware.
It is busy days around the Linaro initiative nowadays. At the Milan meeting a couple of weeks ago, working groups and requirements were set for the next release 11.05 (https://wiki-archive.linaro.org/Releases/1105/TechnicalTopics ). The end of the first 6 months cycle is approaching and on November 11th the next cycle will start ( /blog/getting-ready-for-the-developer-summit-and-the-next-release-cycle/ ).
Linaro engineers and other contributors met in Orlando at the Ubuntu developer summit and I am sure many will meet again at the TechCon conference on November 10th and 11th. Don't miss demonstrations there from us and other semiconductor partners as well as updates from the Linaro organization.
We are looking forward to continue working with the engineering teams in this very exciting project and look forward to meet you and discuss more about Linaro and its benefits. www.stericsson.com

The best way to secure yourself against unexpected illnesses or accidents is through health insurance. Health insurance is a type of insurance that will pay for a share of your health expenses such as surgical and medical costs whenever you visit a doctor. There is a wide variety of health insurance plans available. In some plans, you may be required to pay for medical costs and get reimbursed later while in other plans your insurer will pay for your costs directly. With Wirefly, you can simply compare different health insurance packages in Columbia, MD, and also receive free online quotes.
There are four ways of getting health insurance in Columbia, MD. First, you can be insured under your employer. Alternatively, you can be covered through private insurance. Senior citizens are usually covered through Medicare while low income earners use Medicaid. Medicare and Medicaid are far much cheaper than private insurance.
Health insurance comes with different levels of coverage. The cheaper packages are geared towards catastrophic events while the more expensive packages provide full coverage. Before choosing a plan, it is advisable to estimate your health care needs.
No one can know for certain what's going to happen in the future. The same is true for everyone's personal health situation. This unpredictability can add difficulty to the search for the perfect level of health insurance coverage for the coming plan renewal period. As a general rule, one can use the past to calculate a baseline for how much health insurance coverage will be needed going forward. This means if a subscriber is generally healthy and doesn't seek medical attention on a regular basis, then they can probably get the care needed from a lower cost health insurance plan. In the same way, if the subscriber has a chronic condition or visits the doctor regularly, then they may need to research insurance options that offer wider ranges of coverage.
Catastrophic health insurance is one of the least expensive insurance plans in Columbia, MD. This health insurance option is priced so low because coverage only begins in cases of severe medical emergencies and often has a very high deductible that must be met. For otherwise healthy and young individuals, this plan may be enough coverage for many years.
If the subscriber would be more comfortable with a health insurance plan in Columbia, MD that offers more coverage, then he or she will generally be paying higher monthly premiums. Basically, the more one pays every month, the more the health insurance company will pay for the subscriber's healthcare needs. It's important to find the ideal balance between the coverage wanted at the price that fits the available family budget. As long as the basics are covered, the subscriber can always purchase additional coverage in the future if they need it and can afford it.
Several types of health insurance plans are available in Columbia, MD. Although these health insurance plans may offer similar coverage levels, their convenience of use and flexibility may vary. Choices include a Health Maintenance Organization (HMO), Preferred Provider Organization (PPO), Point of Service Plan (POS), Health Savings Account (HSA), Health Reimbursement Agreement (HRA), Flexible Spending Account (FSA), and Medical Savings Account (MSA). There are many options, and comparing them may seem confusing. Before selecting a health insurance plan, however, it is important to recognize the basic differences between them.
An HMO, or Health Maintenance Organization in Columbia, MD, is a network that requires the insured to select a primary care physician (PCP) to act as the gatekeeper for your health care and related needs. If you need to visit a specialist, the primary care doctor must refer you to the specialist. He or she decides if it is necessary for you to see a specialist. HMOs typically have lower premiums than other plans, but the network of doctors available to the insured may be limited. If the insured wants to see a doctor outside of the HMO network, these doctors might not accept the HMO insurance plan. On the plus side, many HMO plans have no deductibles and out-of-pocket costs are usually reasonable.
A PPO plan, or Preferred Provider Organization, usually offers a large network of health care providers to the insured. He or she may choose any primary care doctor within the PPO network and see specialists without a referral from the primary care physician. Although the insured receives the best financial deal from in-network doctors and hospitals, he or she receives partial financial assistance for out-of-network doctors, specialists, and hospitals as well. PPO participants usually pay deductibles and copayments. Limits may apply concerning annual out-of-pocket costs.
A variety of non-traditional health insurance plans are available in Columbia, MD, such as a Health Savings Account (HSA), a Health Reimbursement Account (HRA), a Flexible Spending Arrangement (FSA), and a Medical Savings Account (MSA). These approaches operate on the idea that you and/or your employer set money aside in a tax-free savings account for any medical-related expenses. Money in the plan may be used to pay for doctor visits, surgeries, prescriptions, and some over-the-counter medicines. These health care plans offer a great deal of flexibility concerning how the money is used. Some plans allow users to rollover money from year-to-year.
When considering a health care plan in Columbia, MD, there are a lot of terms that might be unfamiliar and can be difficult to understand for those who've never come across them before. A premium is a monthly cost that's paid to cover the health insurance plan that's being provided. Even if the insurance isn't used during the course of the year, the money isn't returned.
As for the deductible, certain plans will require the insured individual to pay a small portion of money for the healthcare service before insurance covers the remainder. This is typically set to an annual amount. On the other hand, out-of-pocket expenses are the amount that has actually been paid of the deductible. Upon reaching the deductible limit, the remainder of the costs will be covered. However, if the deductible has not been reached by the end of the year, the out-of-pocket costs will go back to $0.
Co-payments with an insurance plan involve any necessary costs during the initial visit to a doctor or physician. This is usually something low like $20 or $30 for a doctor's visit. If the services provided during the visit are covered by the insurance plan, the remainder of costs will be covered. Some plans come with a maximum benefit for an individual that extends to multiple years. Once this limit is reached, the insurance company may refuse to cover any additional healthcare costs. Thankfully, this limit is usually set very high and isn't allotted by all insurance providers. Some larger Columbia, MD businesses and corporations will offer group plans that are available to all employees. These plans tend to be more affordable than individual plans.
In today's world, more and more people are self-employed. Any individual that's self-employed, and even those who are currently unemployed, have the ability to purchase a private health insurance plan on an individual basis. The premiums for these plans can be more expensive, so make sure to weigh the benefits. Senior citizens will usually be able to receive government assistance through plans like Medicare and Medicaid. These plans are typically available to anyone 65 years of age and older, though younger people with severe disabilities may also apply. To identify which health plans are best, simply speak with your doctor, as they have a better understanding of your healthcare needs. When changing health care plans, make sure that the primary care physician knows about this change. The actual provider of the insurance plan will be able to answer any questions.
Signing up for health insurance is one of the greatest decisions you can make, for both and your family. The process may seem overwhelming as there are a number of things that can impact your health insurance plan options and rates. However, Wirefly makes getting a health insurance quote in Columbia, MD simpler than ever. All you need to do is enter your ZIP code.
It may be tempting to try to cut down on health insurance costs, but be sure you do not cut out any coverage that you actually do need. For instance, if you plan on having children later in life, you should choose a plan that covers maternity care. This way you will be prepared for the future and you will not need to worry about when the time comes. Do not try to cut down on coverage just to save a quick buck or two. Insurance premiums costs are never cheap, but ultimately, they are less expensive than paying medical bills without the help of health insurance. We here at Wirefly can help you save money on your health insurance and find the best insurance plans in Columbia, MD. Get your free quote today!

Nosepass had been said to be completely unmoving, with its magnetic nose pointed due north. However, close observation has revealed that the Pokémon actually moves by a little over 3/8 of an inch every year.
Nosepass's magnetic nose is always pointed to the north. If two of these Pokémon meet, they cannot turn their faces to each other when they are close because their magnetic noses repel one another.

If this little nugget of information doesn't appear on a future JFSP sketch, I will be mildly disappointed. Not very disappointed or plainly disappointed. Just slightly bemused with an eyebrow raised 1/16th of an inch. To qualify for the 1/8th eyebrow lift, it would have to be news that you suddenly decided to rob a bank...and succeeded.

Speaking of words which sound the same, the one that always gets me is 'outstanding' because it has two utterly different meanings.
If my boss tells me that the report he asked for is 'outstanding', he means either it was brilliant or he hasn't received it yet.
Who ever thought that was a good idea?
- 12:59 pm
- Unknown said...
Bit late to the party (sorry), but I've always remembered it as stationery has an 'e' for 'ecrire' (to write); and stationary has an 'a' as in 'arreter' (to stop). Knowing this has also helped me to retain a very scant morsel of French from my schooldays.

If you haven't downloaded VLC Media Player for your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad yet, then it's too late, as Apple has pulled it from the App Store. The app wasn't breaking any rules with its functionality, however. The thing that ultimately made Apple take action was the GNU license it was released under.
Remi Denis-Courmount is one of the main developers working on VLC. In October last year he sent a copyright infringement notice to Apple stating that the company was violating the GNU General Public License for VLC. It seems strange that a developer working on VLC would do this, but VLC is free software and the license it is distributed under has to be adhered to.
As Apple does not allow free and open distribution, which VLC requires in any form it takes, the GNU license was being violated. Two months later and Apple has finally reacted to the infringement notice by removing the app. The alternative was clearly unacceptable for the company and its closed App Store environment.
Denis-Courmount reacted to the removal via the VideoLAN website, stating:
At last, Apple has removed VLC media player from its application store. Thus the incompatibility between the GNU General Public License and the AppStore terms of use is resolved – the hard way. This end should not have come to a surprise to anyone, given the precedents.
With VLC set to continue being distributed under the GNU General Public License, and Apple continuing to operate the App Store as a closed environment with app DRM, it looks unlikely that VLC will ever return to Apple devices.

Schwerin has just short of 100,000 residents, making it Germany's smallest state capital. It enjoys a picture-perfect location among a series of lakes that reflect both the passing clouds in the northern sky and the city's most famous landmark, Schwerin Castle. A fitting landmark: light, airy, bright and welcoming – just like the city itself.
Records dating back as far as 965 AD show evidence of a castle built on a freshwater lake in what historians believe to be Schwerin. However, it was only after 1160 that the city was actually established and the castle rebuilt in the shape of the now eminent Schwerin Castle. Just a few years later saw the completion of the first cathedral, the only medieval building in Schwerin to have survived the centuries, albeit in various guises. This first cathedral soon had to be torn down due to lack of space, with only its tower spared. The Romanesque episcopal church consecrated in 1248 also soon proved inadequate after Count Henry of Schwerin returned from the Crusades alleged to be carrying a drop of Jesus Christ's blood – the Holy Blood relic. The church eventually needed a holding area to cope with crowds of pilgrims. This gave rise to the new cathedral in 1270, which subsequently became one of the foremost pilgrimage churches in the north-east of the German empire. Today, Schwerin is known by many names: city of the seven lakes, Florence of the North, cathedral city and royal seat. All are apt because Schwerin successfully combines nature and architecture, artworks great and small, plus reminders of its long history. As visitors cross the cobbled market square, explore the narrow lanes, admire the historical buildings in the central Schelfstadt quarter or let their gaze fall on the incredibly beautiful castle, they will soon realise that there is plenty to see and do in Schwerin.
The castle is the city's most famous landmark and perches on an island between Lake Schwerin and Lake Burgsee as if taken from the pages of a fairytale. Besides the castle gardens, the best places to visit nearby include the State Museum, the Victory Column, the Old Palace, the royal stables and the neo-classical State Chancellery. The city also has plenty to offer by way of culture, with a wide range of performances staged at the Mecklenburg State Theatre – an establishment that comprises numerous venues including the Konzertfoyer, E-Werk, the werk3 theatre bar and, last but not least, the puppet theatre. But the highlight of the cultural calendar has to be the magnificent castle theatre festival, an opera festival of international acclaim. Year after year, tens of thousands of culture lovers flock to Schwerin to enjoy works from Puccini through to Verdi performed against the magical backdrop of the castle gardens or inside the castle courtyard.
The Schwerin State Museums are also worthy of a capital city. The Gallery of Old and New Masters houses collections of Flemish and Dutch paintings from the 16th to the 18th century, as well as conceptual artworks by Marcel Duchamp.
The city boasts a prestigious calendar of events. Schwerin is the proud host of the Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania Festival, as well as the Filmkunstfest film festival and the Parade of the 'Weisse Flotte' boats that take place in May. The pottery market, Five Lakes Run, Christopher Street Day and dragon boat festival are held in June or July, and are followed by the Old Town festival, the wine festival and the Schwerin literary festival. The year ends on a high note with the Mäkelborg Christmas market. Schwerin packs a lot in for such a small city, and everyone is looking forward to the start of the next season – and to the many visitors who come back year after year. Hopefully next time you'll be one of them.

Gestational diabetes is a form of diabetes that begins during pregnancy and usually resolves after the baby is born.
During pregnancy, placental hormones (growth hormone, prolactin, cortisol, placental lactogen, progesterone) are produced that can block the effectiveness of insulin, leading to a relative insulin resistance. Insulin is a hormone that helps the body convert food into energy. Without insulin, glucose from the food you eat cannot enter cells, and glucose builds up in the blood.
In most women, the pancreas increases insulin production enough to offset this resistance. When the pancreas fails to keep pace, gestational diabetes occurs. In addition to causing problems for the mother, the excess glucose in the blood can cross the placenta and cause problems for the baby.
Complications for women with gestational diabetes mellitus include an increased chance of:
Complications affecting the fetus or infant include:
- Macrosomia (abnormally large baby) and problems during delivery, such as shoulder dystocia
- Respiratory distress syndrome (breathing problems)
- Other conditions, such as, low blood glucose levels, low calcium levels, high bilirubin levels
- Increased rate of stillbirth
Children whose mothers had gestational diabetes are at higher risk for developing type 2 diabetes .
If you have gestational diabetes, maintaining good control over your glucose levels during pregnancy significantly reduces the risk of complications to you and to your baby.What are the risk factors for gestational diabetes?What are the symptoms of gestational diabetes?How is gestational diabetes diagnosed?What are the treatments for gestational diabetes?Are there screening tests for gestational diabetes?How can I reduce my risk of gestational diabetes?What questions should I ask my doctor?Where can I get more information about gestational diabetes?

Your Hornaday advisor should be someone who has significant expertise in the area you have chosen for your project(s).
Several sources exist where you might find a good advisor for your Hornaday project(s).
Begin with any fellow Scouts who may have earned a Hornaday Award and ask them if you can contact their advisor. If the advisor does not wish to participate, query the advisor as to whether they might know of another qualified person who would be willing to help you.
Here's a partial list of organizations you could approach to find an advisor: The National Audubon Society, the Izaak Walton League, the National Wildlife Federation, or governmental agencies including the Environmental Protection Agency, USDA Forest Service, Army Corps of Engineers, Bureau of Land Management, Natural Resources Conservation Service, Fish and Wildlife Service, National Park Service, state natural resource conservation agencies, and your state cooperative extension service.
State environmental agencies are another good source for finding an advisor.
In addition, there may be local clubs or organizations devoted to the environment that have members willing to help you.
Finding a good Hornaday advisor will require some research and networking effort on your part. Ask your parents and Scoutmaster to aid you in your search.
This website contains guidelines for individuals wishing to be advisors but who have never served in that role.

Cascades Science Center Foundation is proud to sponsor an interactive hands-on Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) program called Science Squad. The foundation is dedicated to sparking kids' imaginations and providing a venue for the whole family to explore science.
We need your help! The foundation is in its early formulative stages.
We are looking for like-minded individuals who can help us move forward with this exciting endeavor.
The science education and the versatility of the American workforce are both in decline. The following book "Rising Above the Gathering Storm: Energizing and Employing America for a Brighter Economic Future" recommends that we need to increase America's talent pool by vastly improving K-12 mathematics and science education. In addition to reading the book online, listen to this podcast titled "Is America falling off the flat earth?".
Developing a child's love of science can be a world changing event. Tomorrow's workers will need a deep knowledge of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) in order to fuel an increasingly innovation-based US economy. Inspiring passion for science must happen at a formative age so that a child's curiosity and fascination can fuel a life-long pursuit of knowledge.
Our nation must provide the talent to succeed in the competitive world market fueled by scientific innvations.

According to Joe Williams, the senior White House reporter for Politico, Rush Limbaugh is like the "serial murderer" who was caught with "three bodies in the trunk." The veteran journalist made the outrageous comparison on Tuesday's Martin Bashir show, a program that included other liberal smears against the conservative radio host.
Before making his offensive connection, Williams highlighted his background covering the police. Regarding Limbaugh's comments about Sandra Fluke, the journalist linked: "... [Law enforcement] always would catch the serial murderer because he was driving around with a busted taillight, not because he had, like, three bodies in the trunk." He added, "I mean they would always have some incident to really capture him on and this was Rush Limbaugh's." [See video below. MP3 audio here.]
MSNBC anchor Bashir could barely contain his contempt for the "offensive," "inflammatory Limbaugh. He teased the segment, trashing, "Rush Limbaugh as offensive as ever as still more advertisers flee." He later added, "Next, Rush Limbaugh is on the ropes. Stay with us."
Bashir, who makes no pretense of objectivity, began the segment this way: "Rabid radio host Rush Limbaugh is facing new uproar over his inflammatory remarks against Georgetown Law student Sandra Fluke."
In addition to Williams, Bashir's other guests were the liberal David Corn and Democratic strategist Krystal Ball.
Asked about sponsors who were pulling out of Limbaugh's show, Corn piously insisted, "A bout of classiness has struck advertisers."
A transcript of the March 13 segment can be found below:
2:48pm tease
BASHIR: Plus, Rush Limbaugh as offensive as ever as still more advertisers flee.
3:11pm tease
MARTIN BASHIR: Next, Rush Limbaugh is on the ropes. Stay with us.
BASHIR: Rabid radio host Rush Limbaugh is facing new uproar over his inflammatory remarks against Georgetown Law student Sandra Fluke. Limbaugh's distributor, Premiere Radio Networks alerted its affiliates to pull national ads from Limbaugh's broadcasts, even as this afternoon as Limbaugh returned to the air waves to champion women's concerns.
RUSH LIMBAUGH: The women of America want jobs and an expanding economy. They're not obsessed with birth control pills being passed out on campus or whatever anybody wants them. The regime calculated that they could create this mythical Republican war on women and look where they are.
MARTIN BASHIR: Our panel is back with us by popular demand. David Corn, Joe Williams and Krystal Ball. Krystal what do you make of Limbaugh's latest remarks? He's apparently now become the voice of defense for women. He's defending them.
KRYSTAL BALL: Mitt Romney saying y'all and eating grits and Rush Limbaugh is the defender of women. Something has gone seriously wrong today. I mean, the idea that it's Democrats that are pushing this narrative on women is ridiculous. Let me just tell you that in 2011, across the country in 50 states across the country, there were 1100 women's health bills pushed by Republican legislators across the country. 1100. Okay, these were all legislators who were elected because they said jobs and economy and deficit and jobs. And when they got in there-
BASHIR: They focused on the uterus. Absolutely.
BALL: The agenda was totally, totally different. And that's why women are so upset.
BASHIR: Yeah. David, Rush suggests that the war on women is a myth, as Krystal says, perpetrated by Democrats. If that's the case, why are his advertisers fleeing and running away from his broadcast?
DAVID CORN: A bout of classiness has struck advertisers. And it's not just his show. You know, there was this memo that came out saying that about 100 advertisers, very big brand name chain stores and restaurants have told Premiere radio which puts out his show but also Glenn Beck and Hannity and Michael Savage, saying they don't want to be associated anymore with controversial and mean-spirited- I think that's the keyword here- mean-spirited radio talk show hosts. So this could be, you know, Rush Limbaugh could be bringing down a big part of the right wing, which is talk show radio hosts across the board. I think, ultimately, this will level out and he's going to keep his show and they will keep their shows. But it's been, I think, a tremendous blow. And it was really-.after all the terrible things he's said over the years, I'm still surprised this is the straw that broke the camel's back. But that camel was getting pretty knobbly at the knees and finally it seems to be collapsing this very week.
BASHIR: Sure. Very quickly, Krystal, you've got some new figures on the actual number, because we have 140 advertisers having requested that their ads be pulled. You say it's more than that.
BALL: The number that we have is 156 at StopRush, that have said we don't- they either pulled their ads or said we don't want to be on during this program. You know, it's hard actually to keep track because so many have issued statements. And then you have another number who have quietly pulled their ads without putting out any sort of statement and calling attention to themselves. But, of course, the big news we got last night too is that premier, which syndicates Limbaugh's show has decided to pull all national ads for the next two weeks. That is how they get their revenue. So they're saying for two weeks we're basically not taking in revenue because we need a cooling off period. We don't have enough in the inventory to continue placing national ads at local affiliates.
BASHIR: Wow. Now Joe, why would they ask for this two-week period? Does this mean do you think, that people are now seriously considering their long-term commitment to Rush Limbaugh?
JOE WILLIAMS: Well they have to. They don't really have a choice. We had, here, a campaign that went viral almost immediately. And to me, I mean to speak to David's point. It reminds me of how, when I used to cover police, they always would catch the serial murderer because he was driving around with a busted taillight, not because he had, like, three bodies in the trunk. I mean they would always have some incident to really capture him on and this was Rush Limbaugh's. Basically, he went over the line and advertisers don't like that kind of negative publicity particularly when it goes viral on the internet and when there are boycotting campaigns that start. It's not always about what he says. It's about whether or not there's enough outrage to hit those kind of broadcasters and their advertisers right where it hurts which is in the wallet.
BASHIR: Right. I have to give credit to you for championing this. And we're now hearing from other activists are calling on the FCC to actually take him off the air. Do you think that's possible?
BALL: I don't know if it's possible. I don't know the ins and outs of that. What I would say is that what we've been doing by just calling on the sponsors of the programming, has been so successful that I think we should really try to use the free market approach, which is what we're doing and see if we can get a success that way, first.

Mozilla Posted $163M in Revenue in 2011 as It Shifted Focus to Mobile
Mozilla today disclosed its 2011 financials and laid out a strategic vision around mobilization and openness.
The foundation and its subsidiaries had $163 million in revenue in 2011, up 33 percent from $123 million in 2010.
But Mozilla's expenses also grew considerably, causing a decline in net cash flow to $13.4 million in 2011 from $21.7 million in 2010.
The biggest increase in expenses came from the cost of software development, with $103 million in 2011 compared to $62.8 million in 2010. The increased cost was due to investment in new products, said Mozilla CFO Jim Cook.
"This represents our continued technology development investments in the future of Mozilla as we quickly move from primarily a one-product organization (Firefox desktop) to multiple products and services with both a mobile and global focus," Cook said.
The timing and format of the yearly financials release as well as the results of an audit were in keeping with Mozilla's status as a non-profit.
But the timing is also important for Mozilla as it tries to connect its past and present — the Firefox browser — with its future — the Firefox OS for mobile.
Mozilla has put significant development effort into its new open mobile alternative operating system, and plans to launch its first Firefox OS phones in Latin America in 2013 with partner Telefónica.
As for Mozilla's financials going forward, the organization doesn't offer guidance. But based on previous reporting, we do know that late last year Google agreed to pay on the order of $300 million per year to continue to be the default search provider in Firefox. So even as Mozilla pours development resources into mobile, its cash cow is only getting richer.
As for mobile-specific monetization, Mozilla noted that it should make money from OEMs, operators and app publishers for the Firefox Marketplace.
For the occasion of the financials release, Mozilla also created an annual report about its "mobilized" vision in the form of a microsite.
Said the site,
Just like we did on the desktop, Mozilla is setting out to ensure that the mobile Web is full of freedom, choice and opportunity and that it has the ability for users to create anything they want. With Firefox OS, we can break open the world of native operating systems and closed platforms once again.
Mozilla does continue to develop its Firefox for the desktop, even though it may not be growing and driving innovation like it once was. On that front, the annual report highlighted Firefox's security and memory enhancements and developer tools over the past year, as well as its upcoming social API tools.
It also noted that Mozilla counts improvements and other Firefox-like changes in other browsers as a form of success — for instance, Google adding Do Not Track to the Chrome browser.

Race in America and overdue justice, human and divine
The events of past months, during which the deaths of a number of unarmed black men around the country at the hands of police officers have been highlighted in the media and have erupted into the public consciousness, have been both devastating and—paradoxically — heartening to me.
They are devastating not only because they reveal the callousness with which African-American lives are sometimes dispensed with by law enforcement personnel, but also because of the failure of the justice system in our country to condemn and to punish that callousness.
It has become clear to anyone with eyes to see or ears to hear what some people have been trying to tell us for some time now: Black and brown lives matter less than white lives in our society, there is a vast discrepancy between the way law enforcement and the justice system in our country treat black and brown people compared with the treatment of white people.
These events are also heartening, however, because while they are not something unusual or anomalous in America – the wanton killing of black men by law enforcement in our country has been practically a matter of routine for a long time – in these last weeks a public outcry has arisen calling for an end to these killings, for justice and for accountability from those who commit them.
Let me make it clear at this point that I am a white person, and I am writing from a white person's perspective.
I have been personally outraged by the images and reports of these recent killings that I have seen in the media. On Saturday, Dec. 13, I happened to be in New York City and joined in the march there that drew tens of thousands of people calling for justice. I was, as I said, heartened and encouraged by the diverse cross-section of American society that made up those who participated. It was the kind of demonstration of solidarity that has been needed for quite a long time, and which has the potential to actually bring about change.
However, some of the chants repeated by the crowd that caught my attention and have caused me to reflect a little more deeply were, "How do you spell racist? N-Y-P-D!" and "Hey,Hey! Ho, Ho! These racists cops have got to go!" Not that I disagree with those statements on their face — the NYPD is a racist organization, and cops who act out by gratuitously killing black people do indeed have to go. But the police are not at the root of the problem. I do not believe that the NYPD is any more racist than is American society in general.

Offense: A Puzzle
The Phillies offense can put up crooked number runs quickly and often. Right now, the offense is a puzzle. Five singles and one double last night added up to their second straight defeat, the first time they've lost two in a row since April 25-27.
Adding to the puzzle: the Phillies are 1-6 against left-handed starters at Citizens Bank Park.
Jamie pitched well enough to win. Chad give up his first runs at home since 8/29/09 but it didn't matter because there was just one single run on the board.
Series ends this afternoon and then the Red Sox come to town for the start of interleague play.
When Moyer, 47, faced Cubs shortstop Starlin Castro, 20, it was the largest difference in age between a batter and pitcher since 1972 (Expos' Tim Foli, 21; Dodgers' Hoyt Wilhelm, 40), according to Elias Sports Bureau.
Elias also reported the Mets' Angel Pagan is the first player to hit an inside-the-park homer and start a triple play since 9/25/55. The player do did it then? Phillies shortstop Ted Kazanski.
On The Farm
Lehigh Valley played a normal 9-inning game last night. On Monday, they ended a road trip with a 15-inning game at Gwinnett, GA. The next night at home, they went 16 innings. Both marathons were 1-run losses.
It added up to 9 hours, 31 minutes of baseball in a span of 28 hours and 39 minutes.
Clearwater third baseman Cody Overbeck leads the Florida State League in doubles (15), home runs (10) and slugging percentage (.662), is tied for the most hits (49) and second in RBI (31). That's MVP stuff.
Happy Birthday
Jayson Werth, 31.

not to be petty, but the age difference between Moyer and Castro is 27 years. The difference between Wilhelm and FOli was only 19 years. Therefore, it can't be the largest difference since….We are still looking for the last time a pitcher faced a batter over 27 years younger or older then himself
