Lakesider shreds docs explaining new density regs
State wants affordable housing, rural feel be damned
Ana Nita 4 p.m., Feb. 22
The Union of Concerned Scientists, which bills itself as "the leading science-based nonprofit working for a healthy environment and a safer world," has issued a call to nuclear power plant operators to change the way they store highly radioactive spent fuel rods.
Currently, at many sites including the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station, when reactor fuel is no longer usable, it's moved to a temporary storage pool, where water is circulated to ensure the fuel rods, which continue to generate massive amounts of heat for decades after use, don't overheat and cause their casing to catch fire, releasing radiation into the atmosphere.
Since there is no permanent storage site for spent nuclear fuel in the United States, hundreds of tons of it have been accumulating on the sites of power plants for decades. Most of the pools designed for temporary storage have been "re-racked" to allow up to five times as much fuel to be placed into storage as the pools were designed to hold.
Because these facilities are generally outside the primary containment meant to prevent radiation release in an emergency, they're both more susceptible to forces such as a terrorist attack and more likely to release large amounts of radiation in the event of an incident. The San Onofre site does use the containment structure of its decommissioned Unit 1 reactor as a storage area for some fuel.
What the group is proposing instead of exposed fuel tanks for long-term storage of spent fuel is what's known as "dry cask storage."
After about five years in a pool, fuel rods will have cooled enough to be inserted into large concrete and steel structures, each holding about 15 tons of radioactive waste. These vessels are preferable, the Union says, because they are less susceptible to attack, hold less fuel in one containment vessel than a pool, and make the pools themselves safer by virtue of not overloading them. This makes the cooling process itself less challenging and extends the time workers would have to respond to an emergency such as a draining of the pool before fire risks present themselves.
The dry casks are also transportable, meaning fuel would already be packaged for shipment to a permanent storage site, if and when such a facility comes online.
The Union is asking the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to consider a rule requiring all spent fuel to be moved from temporary cooling pools to dry cask storage within five years of it being removed from a reactor, and to implement safeguards designed to protect cask sites from terrorist attack.

"Bycatch" is the term used to describe fish that are caught incidentally while fishing for other species. (Related: Reducing Bycatch in Alaska flyer.) Although fishermen try to catch only fish that can be sold, fishing gear is not 100% selective, and some undesirable fish and other organisms are caught incidentally in the course of fishing operations. These non-target organisms are considered bycatch. Many people are concerned about environmental and allocative effects of catching fish that are not targeted and may be discarded. Fish are discarded for two reasons: either they are required to be thrown back due to regulations (prohibited species), or they are unwanted because they are not economically profitable to be retained (not a preferred species or size for the markets).
Limits on the bycatch of prohibited species (crab, herring, halibut, and GOA and BSAI salmon) have been established to reduce the impacts on these species traditionally harvested by other gear types. When bycatch limits are reached, fisheries resphttps://www.npfmc.org/crab-bycatch-overview/gulf-of-alaska-crab-bycatch/onsible for the bycatch are closed for the rest of the season or are prohibited from fishing in areas with historically high bycatch rates. Bycatch limits for 2002 Bering Sea and Aleutian Island groundfish trawl fisheries included 3,675 mt of halibut mortality, 1,526 mt of herring, 97,000 red king crabs, 3,950,000 C. bairdi crab, 4,350,000 C. opilio crab, 33,000 chinook salmon, and 42,000 other salmon. These bycatch limits equate to less than about 1% of the halibut, crab, herring, and chum salmon populations.
Bycatch of chinook salmon is slightly larger, in the order of 2% to 3%, and the Council and industry are pursuing several initiatives to further reduce this level. In addition to bycatch limits, gear restrictions and other regulations have been implemented to reduce bycatch. Biodegradable panels are required for pot gear to minimize bycatch associated with so-called ghost fishing of lost gear. Tunnel openings for pot gear are limited in size to reduce incidental catch of halibut and crabs. Gillnets for groundfish have been prohibited to prevent ghost fishing and bycatch of non-target species. With the implementation of an individual fishing quota system for halibut and sablefish longline fisheries, bycatch and waste were reduced because the race for fish was eliminated, allowing for more selective fishing practices and significant reductions in actual gear deployment/loss. In 1999, the use of bottom trawl gear was prohibited for vessels targeting pollock in the Bering Sea, to reduce crab and halibut bycatch.

There's about 6 fire alarms in my house. One alarm started going off then, all the other ones went off for about 30min. Finally it all stopped, but then started again. Now that all the beeping stopped, one continues to beep every minute.
I changed the battery and it still beeps, so I flipped the battery figuring it was in backwards. The darn thing still beeps, I pushed the test button and that didn't work. I don't know what else to do, and I need some sleep. I'd cut the power, but it's my grandparents house so I don't want to do anything I'd get in trouble for. Any advice would help.

I had the same problem with a fire alarm in our two bedroom apartment that continually beeped in our living room. One of the maintenance men had to remove the alarm and install another one.
It's not always the battery, maybe the alarms need to replaced with new ones. The alarms in your grandparents home are probably the original ones.
Maybe the new battery isn't as fresh as it needs to be? I'd try buying a fresh pack of batteries before going to the expense of a new alarm.
Agree with MCW, the alarms themselves can wear out and need to be replaced.
Get the manufacturer's name off the unit and call them. They are the experts.

BPA and Low Sperm Count
There's more and more news about hazards of Bisphenol A or BPA. Some of the most recent comes from Kaiser-Permanente, indicating that even small amounts of BPA exposure can lower sperm counts and sperm motility in men.
To me this qualifies as a wonder, though a negative one. BPA apparently mimics certain hormones and disrupts processes controlled by those hormones. We don't yet know exactly how this comes about, but eventually researchers will figure at least some of it out. And it will illustrate one or more wonders about the way our cells function when they are free of poisons.
I looked up the video in this post so that I can show it to you here, and so that I can refer back to it next time. In my next post, I'll write about an obesity mystery that might be related to BPA also.

Fosmetpantotenate (RE-024)
Fosmetpantotenate (RE-024) could be the first approved replacement therapy targeting the underlying cause of pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration (PKAN), a life-threatening neurological disorder that typically begins in early childhood.1
Estimated to affect only up to 5,000 people worldwide, this rare genetic condition is characterized by a host of progressively debilitating movement disorders.1,2There are no approved treatment options for PKAN and current therapeutic strategies are limited to symptom management.3
We are currently enrolling patients with PKAN in our FOsmetpantotenate Replacement Therapy (FORT) Study, a Phase 3 clinical trial. Detailed information about this pivotal trial can be found at pkanfortstudy.com. The study will be conducted according to a Special Protocol Assessment (SPA) agreement with the FDA. As part of this process, Retrophin and the agency have agreed that the design of this pivotal trial is adequate to support a New Drug Application.
The FDA and European Commission granted orphan drug designation to fosmetpantotenate for the treatment of PKAN. In the U.S., this status provides Retrophin with development and regulatory incentives, as well as seven years of marketing exclusivity, if fosmetpantotenate is approved for PKAN. Similarly, fosmetpantotenate is eligible for a single marketing authorization that is valid in all EU countries and 10 years of market exclusivity in the region, upon approval for PKAN. Fosmetpantotenate was also granted fast track status in the U.S., which is designed to facilitate the development and expedite the regulatory review of medicines intended to treat serious conditions with unmet medical needs, in order to reach patients earlier.

I do wonder, however, since (if?) it is only accessibility related, whether it should be in the HTML spec, or in the mapping spec of Stever, or in a WCAG spec. I think a "find the main content" algorithm has non-accessibility uses as well, for example for data mining tools, or for "readability" style tools or browser features. I did think about the idea of putting it in the HTML spec, but then the <main> element spec would have to patch/replace this algorithm to correctly handle the <main> element.

Strawberry Shortcake Magnets
I was pretty delighted to be reunited with my old Strawberry Shortcake buddies. I must have had these since I was a little girl. I can't believe I ever put them away!
I am still charmed by how these girls are named Lemon Chiffon and Angel Cake.
The purple kitty named Souffle is so cute. I loved that cat and remember having a scented figurine of her... Boy would I love to find that piece! I bet it is somewhere at my parents' house too!
I hope you found some goodies this weekend too. I'm linking up to ATG's Thrift Share!

What's that?
A sneak peek?
That's right, this morning I'm playing I spy (albeit on my own, which is nowhere near as fun on a long drive because you already know the answers*) and I've spotted a little something in the office that we're *very* excited about...
It's a preview of Block One! Our Mystery Quilt by Sarah Fielke launches on the Spotlight Facebook this Friday, 1st Feb. Make sure you tune in every fortnight to find out what we have in store for you - WE don't even know what the finished quilt will look like!
Sarah assures us that these blocks are super simple and fun to make for any age or skill level, with nothing more complex than a half-square triangle or three.
Friday's block will also come with a shopping list outlining the fabric you'll need to make ALL the blocks.
Can't wait to see you all back here on Friday to hear what you think of Block One!
*I suggest, when driving on your own, playing "Horse". You get a point for every horse you see. It's pretty simple. If you see a cemetary, the game is over. Voila!

The Year 2012 Is Reflected in "Emotional Creature"
Eve Ensler's latest play on the inner lives of girls treats topical concerns for feminists today throughout the world.
Eve Ensler's "Emotional Creature" touches on some of the big issues in feminism during the course of this year. The play, from the author of "The Vagina Monologues," explores the inner lives of girls around the world—complete with all the pressures, joys, and current rites of passage.
"'Emotional Creature' is about discovering the girl in each of us," Ensler said. "It is about traveling and dancing and refusing. It is about telling secrets and breaking taboos and building a posse."
The play tackles some uncomfortable topics, from rape and genital mutilation, to such seemingly more innocent matters as Barbies and peer pressure. Part drama, part musical, the performance incorporates video, original songs, monologues and stories from across the globe.
"The reason I wrote 'Emotional Creature' was to honor people like Malala Yousufzai—a fearless young activist who is an inspiration to teen girls the world over," Ensler explained in October.
Yousufzai, a 15-year-old Pakistani girl, recently made headlines when she was shot by the Taliban in her home country for promoting girls' education. She survived, and is being treated in London for the attack. Her ordeal has drawn international attention to the struggle for gender rights in Pakistan.
The appealing and energetic cast features six young actresses. Early in the play, two of the characters, one from Bulgaria and another from Congo, talk about their experience being raped and forced into prostitution and sexual slavery.
Marta, played by Joaquina Kalukango, recounts being accosted by a group of Congolese soldiers while she is shopping. They kidnap her, and one of the men abuses her for years afterward. The monologue sheds light on the rampant problem of mass rape in Congo from the perspective of a young girl, who voices her anger, confusion and mixed emotions.
"When I see enormous injustice, when I see people messing with women's rights, there are certain things I can't be quiet about," Ensler told Chicago's Daily Herald. "I cannot sit there and let those people do that. That just makes me insane."
Unlike the coverage available in news reports, which Ensler said prompted her to write about Pakistan and Congo, "Emotional Creature" focuses on the emotional and psychological impact such crimes have on their victims by giving them a voice. If anything, the performance makes the case that being emotional is a female strength, not weakness.
"I am an emotional creative," sing the cast. "Don't tell me not to cry, to shut it down. This is not extreme, it is a girl thing."
Perhaps the wittiest sketch is the story of a 15-year-old Chinese girl who works in a Chinese factory where she makes the heads for Barbie dolls. The character, played by Olivia Oguma, tells us how sorry she feels for "poor Barbie" who must be perfect, can never talk, and doesn't have the freedom to be herself. She jokes how she is "Prison Barbie," trying to send out secret messages to the world while, stuck in a factory, she manufactures dolls for young girls across the globe.
Many of the scenes set in America deal with the inherent angst girls feel to conform to societal pressure to look thin, be pretty and fit in.
Adapted from the "Vagina Monologues," in the song "my short skirt," the girls reclaim their right to dress however they like, sexy or not, stating it is not "an invitation, a provocation, that I want it or give it or that I hook."
"My short skirt... is a liberation flag in the women's revolution," they sing in unison.
The play is currently at Pershing Square Signature Center in New York through January 13. Meanwhile, Ensler is finishing up her memoir, In the Body of the World, which comes out next spring.

When I first found out about Reunited in Danger, I was anticipating the day when I would be able to read it. I really enjoyed getting to know Keely and Logan. They've known each other since childhood, and it has been 10 years since their painful heartbreak. Now Logan, an ex-Marine turned homicide detective, is back in Keely's life to find out who attacked her father. Keely, a social worker, wants to solve the mystery with him. He has a wild temper that needs taming. She's been harboring a secret. It's a dangerous road uncovering clues and weeding out suspects, but working together just might reignite the passion they once shared.
Joya Fields is really good at keeping the reader out of the loop until at just the right moment. Once all the pieces start to fit together, watch out! My stomach was in knots as everything unfolded with all the action and danger. As a huge fan of her stories, I know Joya Fields can combine endearing romance with amazing suspense, and that is exactly what I got with Reunited in Danger.
For fans of second-chance romances, and for those who crave a fast-paced, highly intense plot, this story will get your heart racing on many levels. I enjoyed it so much that I read it twice!

Test Dungeon Terrain Section
Well, no, it's not really blasphemy. I just need a change of pace and am thinking about doing something a bit daft for next year's Historicon game that may mix historical and fantasy - shall we say "Muskets and Dragons" or even "Bolt-Grave"? But more on that another time....
If one is going to do a fantasy game, one needs some dungeon terrain. There a lot of commercially available terrain sets out there which are all patterned of the 2x2x2inch cube format used by Dwarven Forge. DF makes great stuff but it's expensive and also "small". I wanted to have a bit bigger feel, so I decided to mock up a sectional piece.
After waiting a few hours for the primer to dry the next step was to paint on a basic very and then highlight with white.
I think the test section came out rather well but the walls are two high. It would be difficult to get a measuring tape or fingers in there. I think if I reduced the effective wall height from 3 inches to 2 the playability will increase sharply with out loosing to much of the dungeon feel.
My preliminary plan for the HCON game needs 6x4 feet of dungeon, which means a minimum of 96 tiles to build. I think that may be a fun project for the winter.
What do you think?
In planning this little project, I did stumble over a lot of helpful you tube videos
Storm the Castle 3D Dungeon Terrain
The DMGInfo
While the game concept is a bit silly from a historical viewpoint, the terrain making will be a lot of fun and its' still you soldiers. I just need a break from big, set-piece battles for a bit.

Looks good! I agree that a shorter wall will improve things. You're only trying to suggest height and playability is an important factor.

Slow day at work so I am stalking through your blog. One thing I have seen people do to give the stone work a bit of texture is to take a crumpled up ball of tin foil and roll it on foam. It leaves a great slight rough texture. Also if you need any assistance with this amazing sounding project let me know.

Cabbage rolls are a family favorite. And when I say family favorite, I mean I love them even if no one else in my house does. Luckily for me though, my extended family is always willing to help out eating them. In fact I know right now, my mother and sister would kill for one of my cabbage rolls.
Cabbage rolls are really not all that difficult to make, but they are a bit time consuming so make sure you have some time to spare. Especially if you are making them for the first time. It does take a bit of practice to peel the boiled cabbage leaves from the head.
This is an old family recipe. It is not extravagant, but it has been used in our family for at least the past 30 years if not longer, and we love it. Certainly comfort food for us.
*Also, fair warning!! Do not eat too many, or you will get a belly ache! And don't eat any if you have a dr appointment, or they will wonder if something is wrong with you…lol I know this from experience!!*
Cabbage rolls
1 head of cabbage (Mine was from our local CSA!)
1 1/2 lb hamburger
1/2 c rice
2 eggs
2 t Italian seasoning
1 sm onion chopped
tomato juice
Boil the head of cabbage in a large pot until leaves are tender and pliable. Remove the hard "stem" like parts from each leaf.
In a separate bowl, mix together hamburger, eggs, rice, onion, and Italian seasoning.
Take one cabbage leaf in your hand. Place a decent amount of hamburger mix on the leaf, and roll it up like you would wrap a package.
Place in crockpot, and repeat until all hamburger mix is gone.
Cover rolls with sauerkraut and tomato juice, and cook on high for roughly 5 hours or so. The longer they cook, the better they come out (provided you don't burn them.)
That's it. Easy Peasy.
I usually serve mine with boiled, smashed potatoes covered in butter, and corn bread if I have the time to make it.
Hope you enjoy this recipe and more, and don't forget to stop in and say "Hello!"

The practice is not so nice. It turns out the unit has big difficulties with staying on track. In Japan, where I actually wanted to tag my photos, I could only occasionally get the position. And when the position was lost, it took a huge amount of time to get the satellites back. I see no reason for that in places, where other GPS devices work without problems.
I was waiting for 4 minutes with camera taken out in front of Madurodam in the Hague, until I got the position, in spite of the fact I put the camera on long time before. If I am in a company, I simply cannot afford waiting.
Entering the buildings – forget. It is understandable, that the device loses satellites. But is has no function "last position" to tag the photos, when it loses track. It would be sufficient to do so, since it is reasonable to tag the photos taken inside a building as one position. However, the unit does not remember, where it is. So the camera cannot tag the following photos as taken in the same building. Shame.
Of course. I can take the photo at the entrance, and then tag the subsequent photos manually. But to take a photo just it could contain a tag, and then tag the rest is not the way I wanted to do it, when I decided to buy the device.
Another problem is ergonomy. The camera with this accessory attached feels clumsy, and it is not possible to put it easily inside a bag. I used to put camera on the left side, for easy catching the grip. It is not possible. Keeping it always off the bag is also impractical – sometimes you just have to put it in, like you going inside a shop and the security is concerned with your camera ready to take photos.
If you think that attaching and detaching it is a solution, you are wrong. It takes too long, for the operation, and for it re-aquiring position.
Those issues are the reason it is good device only for people, who arrive into the photographing location, have lots of time before starting shooting, and rarely move to other location before the shooting is over.
When you use this accessory, you cannot use a remote control. The battery drain on the camera is smaller issue (but if you want to have the GPS on most of the time, and you probably want, because otherwise it is never ready when you want to take some action shots, it depletes the battery quite quickly).
The last issue, I plan to add small Panasonic GF1 camera to my gear for use when D700 feels too big. I would also like to geo tag those photos as well. It is probably impossible to do with GP-1.
Summing those thing up, I have a GP-1 for sale.
However, I got already hooked into geotagging my photos. There are other solutions on the market, like a hot shoe synchronized JoboGPS. This would work with GF1, but it would still feel clumsy, and I would still need to run my photos through external program.
I suppose a simple GPS logger comes the closest to the ideal solution.
- It is very small, so you can carry it anywhere.
- It is very discreet. Nobody would even notice it.
- It can provide accurate position e.g. each 10 seconds. The probability you move fast enough, that photos taken in the 10 seconds time frame should be tagged differently, is zero.
- It will work with any digital camera.
- It does not attach to the camera, so the camera operation, like putting it in and out the bag is not affected in any way.
- If you carry more than one camera, one device is enough for all. It can serve also for your companions cameras, too.
- It can be useful not only for geotagging photos, but for other purposes, like marking you jogging route on Google Earth.
- It works on its own batteries, so it does not interfere with your camera battery, and camera operation cycles (on, off).
- The log gives basically the "last position" feature, when it loses satellites.
- Typical logger weighs less than 100g, so it is not bad for you back.
- Works with standard AA or AAA batteries
- Operates in the driverless mode: it is visible to a computer like a storage device.

A full hour before our interview is scheduled to begin, Stephanie Larimore, a beautiful brunette with a heart-shaped face, is smiling and ready to go. How appropriate: This is a young woman who seems congenitally incapable of ever being late. "I was a preemie, born two and a half months early," she says. "I was one of those miracle babies and weighed only two pounds, three ounces at birth. Now every spring I do charity walks for the March of Dimes in support of premature babies. And yes, I am early for everything."
Climbing into a classic photo booth, Stephanie says she's reminded of similar booths that are fixtures of the small-town carnivals that pass by her home in Fishers, Indiana. As she mugs playfully, it's clear the 25-year-old knows her way around an aperture. Playboy.com Cyber Club members voted her Cyber Girl of the Month last May, and she recently appeared in the Vixens Playboy Special Edition.

When NBC Universal agreed to spend $7.75 billion on six Olympic Games through 2032, perhaps it was counting on the added value of having one of those Olympics staged in the United States.
The soonest that could happen is 2024; several American cities are pursuing bids.
Winning a bid to host the Games is not unlike a political campaign: Candidates must first conquer a primary. That preliminary competition is happening now among at least seven cities trying to convince the United States Olympic Committee that they should be the American nominee to host the 2024 Summer Games. By then, the United States will have endured a 22-year Olympics drought — and a 28-year hiatus from hosting the Summer Games.
The top contenders are Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Dallas, Washington, Philadelphia and Boston. That list will be cut to two or three cities by the end of May, and the U.S.O.C. hopes to have one city selected by the end of the year.
Recent American bids have been disasters. New York's effort to host the 2012 Summer Games hardly resonated with the International Olympic Committee's voters. Then, despite an appearance from President Obama at the I.O.C.'s voting session in Copenhagen, the Chicago 2016 bid also resulted in a humiliating defeat. The American committee did not even bother putting forth a nominee for the 2020 Games.
(Representatives for the mayors of Chicago and New York said they would not seek bids for 2024.)
Predicting which cities might appeal to I.O.C. voters is about as easy as predicting who is going to win the gold medal in the hammer throw in 2024. But let us try.
LOS ANGELES Barry A. Sanders, the chairman of the Southern California Committee for the Olympic Games, makes it sound as if Los Angeles is ready to host the Games this weekend.
"We want to offer a safe but exciting choice," Sanders said.
The opening and closing ceremonies would be held at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, as was the case when the city held the Games in 1932 and 1984. The Coliseum will undergo a $100 million revamping as part of its agreement with the University of Southern California. But only a quarter of the venues used in the 1984 Games would be recycled, Sanders said.
The most ambitious piece of the Los Angeles bid would be the creation of an athletes' village downtown, a onetime residential wasteland that is becoming a hipster haven. "The Games would reflect the new L.A.," Sanders said.
Then there is one of Los Angeles's signature features: traffic. Sanders said expanded rail lines and designated lanes for Olympic transit would solve that problem.
Los Angeles does have access to something few other cities do. "Of course," Sanders said, with a nod to nearby Hollywood, "we could find a director for opening and closing ceremonies."
SAN FRANCISCO Tech money flows in the Bay Area, but the tight housing market and compact layout of the city might lead to Olympic headaches from locals.
In its previous bid to host, for the 2016 Games, San Francisco relied heavily on its international reputation, college campuses, BART rail system and a so-called ring of gold venue arrangement of distinct clusters in Santa Clara, Oakland, Berkeley, downtown San Francisco and an Olympic Village at Stanford. San Francisco has several sites, like AT&T Park and Harding Park, that could be converted into Olympic facilities, in addition to waterways fit for a kayak or canoe showdown.
"San Francisco has mounted several past Olympic bids and could be a spectacular host for a future Games," Christine Falvey, a spokeswoman for the mayor, said, perhaps trying to remind I.O.C. voters that her city is not a newcomer. She declined to say more regarding San Francisco's specific plans.
SAN DIEGO The original proposal to co-host with Tijuana, Mexico, was dismissed. Instead, San Diegans are trying to use the Olympics as a talking point for the area's long-term urban planning goals.
The city has hosted the Super Bowl, golf's United States Open and major equestrian events, and it has one of three Olympic training sites in nearby Chula Vista, said Vincent Mudd, the chairman of the San Diego Exploratory Committee. Organizers assert they have most of the needed venues, including a convention center that would be used as the operations space for more than 15,000 members of the news media.
Downtown would be home to rugby, gymnastics and night events.
The I.O.C. requires a Summer Games host city to have at least 45,000 hotel rooms; Mudd said San Diego had that many, not counting the cruise ship terminals used for lodging for the Super Bowl.
One missing piece is a track and field stadium, the centerpiece of a Summer Olympics. Another challenge is the stiff competition within California.
DALLAS London! Rio! Tokyo! Dallas? Even if the bid is broadened to be more Texas-focused, the romance of Dallas may be a tough sell to I.O.C. members, many of whom do not know Larry Hagman from Tom Landry.
The 277-acre Fair Park would be the Olympic hub, and the Cotton Bowl stadium would be revamped for track and field competitions and the opening and closing ceremonies. The Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center would host events like judo and taekwondo, and most major sites are connected by Dallas's light rail system.
"This is a chance to showcase our city," Matt Wood, a lawyer who is leading the Dallas Olympic efforts, said.
WASHINGTON In what is being promoted as the most patriotic offering, the Washington bid would involve a proposal to demolish RFK Stadium to construct an Olympic stadium and an athletes' village. "It's ready to be torn down," Russ Ramsey, the chairman of Washington 2024, said.
Having the Games in the Eastern time zone, a potentially lucrative opportunity for NBC, is another one of Washington's selling points, and the Games could spill over to Baltimore. The area is accustomed to staging high-security gatherings.
Amid a campaign-finance scandal, Washington's mayor lost his bid for re-election, and it is unclear whether his successor will support the bid. And while D.C. is lovely in the spring, its summer weather can feel like a warm pool.
PHILADELPHIA While the city is home to the triumphant "Rocky" steps, a culture of rabid sports fans and a gaggle of Ben Franklin impersonators, Philadelphia's Olympic bid is a long shot.
Yet organizers may bank on that underdog status to help propel the bid. Philadelphia has hosted Beyond Sport, collegiate championships in lacrosse and wrestling, and the United States championships in figure skating and gymnastics. But Lincoln Financial Field, the home of the Philadelphia Eagles, seats 68,000, short of the 80,000 that London's stadium had in 2012. Franklin Field, the site of the Penn Relays, could be another option, though it would have to be expanded.
"City leadership has met with a number of stakeholders and experts in recent months and continues to gauge the feasibility of Philadelphia pursuing an Olympic bid in 2024 or in the future," Mark S. McDonald, a spokesman for Mayor Michael Nutter, said.
BOSTON Like Philadelphia, Boston has a deep sports culture, but with Gillette Stadium far away in Foxborough, Mass., the city would need to build an Olympic stadium. And it is far too soon to tell what effect last year's bombings at the Boston Marathon would have on I.O.C. voters concerned about security
One report on the feasibility of a Boston Games formed by the Massachusetts State Legislature and the governor found that the city would also need an aquatics center, an Olympic Village and a velodrome. Nor had research been conducted on what the local opinion would be on hosting the Games.
"New Englanders have a well-earned reputation for being slow to embrace new ideas," the legislative report said. "But once they have done so, they are committed and resolute."
John Fish, who is leading the Boston effort, said in a statement, "Boston is a world-class city and would serve as a wonderful host for the Summer Olympics in 2024."

Him & Her
My husband Clint and I met through my roommate at Dixie State College. We went on our first date and were married within less than 6 months. I have never been one to make up my mind quickly [I'm the girl standing in the aisle going back and forth between two different brands for a good 15 minutes.] But for some reason I made up my mind quickly about this one and it has truly been the best decision of my life.
I believe that every person has one event in their life that shapes the person that they are more than any other life event. And I also believe that I could not have grown into the woman that I am without choosing to marry my husband when I was 19 years old, after less than 6 months of dating. Looking back it is still absolutely crazy to me. But I wouldn't choose to go through life's journey with anyone but this guy ♥

To the Best of Ed Roman's Knowledge

Hamer was the first company to offer fretless guitars.
Hamer was the first company to be purchased by a large corporation (Kaman)

Hamer was the first company to utilize Alex Gregory's 7 string patent and

Hamer was the first company I ever saw manufacture a Piccolo Bass
Today there are a lot of choices when you
buy a good USA handmade rock guitar but during the early 80's Hamer was one of
the best
Check out the control cavity in any USA Hamer, for instance. Remove the
conductive aluminum back plate from the guitar and take a look. Notice how the
cavity is flawless, almost beautiful in appearance? It's extremely functional,
too, and carefully coated with a premium nickel based paint against noise. All
of the rugged, top shelf electronics it houses are totally RF shielded, as well.
Speaking of electronics, the volume pots are custom tapered with a boost
at the last 1/10th of rotation for easy volume gain into solo breaks. Naturally,
all of Hamer's pots, jacks and switches are of the finest American quality
Hamer carefully matches pickup specifications, among other things, to the
timbre of the guitar's body and neck. To insure versatility and quality of tone,
Hamer never specifies identical pickups for neck and bridge positions - a common
mistake with other brands. Even the way the pickups are attached is unique. On
many models, threaded brass inserts are used for stability rather than just
flimsy wood screws. All of the screws are hardened for strength and coated to
prevent rust.
Each and every Hamer fret is hand seated, The Hamer craftsman must feel
how the fret enters the wood a machine simply cannot do it properly. I was at
the USA made Ibanez factory several years ago and they were all proudly showing
me a new contraption they had developed to install all of the frets at once in
a neck. Those American made Ibanez guitars failed miserably. I don't much like
their Japanese ones anymore either. Let them sell their guitars back in Tokyo.
Hamer Fingerboards are carefully quarter sawn for long life, perpetual
straightness and ease of neck adjustment. I saw piles of rejected fingerboards
due to them not meeting criteria. As I stated earlier in this article Hamer
rejects a lot of wood, The Fingerboards are the most carefully inspected in the
industry and have the highest rejection factor. You can be sure that no matter
what model Hamer you own, The Fingerboard will be a super high quality premium
piece of Rosewood or Ebony.
Hamer's exclusive "stressed neck" system consists of three piece necks
with opposing wood grains to insure straight and true lifetime performance. Low
mass truss rods are easily accessible at the headstock.
Each set-in guitar neck is joined to its body with a specially designed,
radically oversized dovetail joint that enhances the transmission of energy
throughout the instrument and strengthens the guitar structurally. And, Hamer
was the first company to create chopped neck joints and angled neck heels for
their bolt-on neck guitars.
The beauty of Hamer Guitars is the result of the expert application of 14
coats of the highest grade lacquers and time consuming hand buffing.

I'm really falling behind on posting these weekly designs to this blog...
Anyway, this one's from a few weeks back based on the topic "In the Dark."
Things like this make me realize just how simplified my design process has become:
Step 1: Draw something cute smoking a cigarette.
Step 2: If the cigarette didn't work, replace it with a cup of tea.

Good news! The Bartram Trail Athletic Department is going paperless. We are implementing this new paperless system July 1, 2016. You will no longer have to print off, complete athletic required forms and turn them into the school (only to find that something is missing). You will be able to read the forms, sign them electronically and submit them. The only exception is the sport physical form (EL2) which will still have to be completed by the physician and submitted electronically (downloaded/scanned to us). Our expectation is that every athlete be registered by their parent/guardian before the start of the sport season's tryouts. Any physical that we have turned in for the 2018-19 school year will be uploaded for you once you have created a registration/account for your athlete. Although you may have already turned in the other paperwork (EL3, parent/athlete code of conduct and victory with honor forms), we need you to go online and acknowledge the completion of these forms online with an electronic signature. Should you have any questions, or technical difficulty/hardship, please contact Shelly Vann ([email protected]), our athletic trainer for assistance. We believe that you will find this new paperless/electronic system much less time consuming and easier to process. Although this system is pretty self-explanatory, we are here to help you navigate this process should you have any difficulty.
In order to transition to this new paperless environment, each athlete will have to register at:
(You can register by using any computer, tablet or smart phone device.)
- Find your school: Find your school by selecting the state (Florida), and click on Bartram Trail HS.
- Create an account: Now begin creating your account by clicking the 'create an account' button. After filling in the required information the system will automatically log you in and you will be required to accept the terms of use.
- Add a new athlete: The next step is to add an athlete. You can do so by clicking 'add athlete' underneath the 'my athletes' tab. This only needs to be done once during your athlete's entire career at a school. The information entered here will carry over from year to year. This information includes your athlete's contact information and medical information.
- The athlete's profile: After you've created your athlete you will be brought to their Profile page. This page is a summary of their info and involvement.
- Register for a sport: Click "+ Register For A Sport" to begin registration, you will be asked to choose which sport your athlete is registering for.
- Your registration checklist: This page shows the status of your athlete's registration. You will be asked to complete several steps to complete registration including agreeing to documents, and completing the physical.
- Physicals: Physical documents should be completed by both the parents and physician/medical professional. Parents have the ability to upload these physical documents to the system. Uploaded documents will need to be verified by the school administrator at the school prior to be accepted as complete. (If a document upload is rejected for any reason, the parent will receive an email with the rejection reason. After the error has been corrected, parents will be able to re-upload the document for verification.)
- Complete registration: Your registration is complete once all items on the checklist have been completed.
- Future Seasons & Years: Once your athlete has been added to your account, you only need to follow steps 6-9 to register them for another sport.
- All physicals must be completed on the following FHSAA form: http://www-bths.stjohns.k12.fl.us/athletics/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2014/09/Physical-EL2.pdf
- If you cannot scan/upload physical to registermyathlete.com, they can be turned in to Coach Vann or head coach prior to tryouts.
- Our expectation is that every athlete be registered by their parent/guardian before the start of the sport season's tryouts
- Any physical that we already have already turned in for the 2018-19 school year will be uploaded for you once you have created a registration/account for your athlete.
- Should you have any questions, or technical difficulty/hardship, please contact Shelly Vann ([email protected]), our athletic trainer for assistance.

I stumbled across these beverages in a West African grocery in Washington, D.C. It was in the Union Market section, which is a several block square shopping area with many exotic food stores, some of which are open to the general public, and others which sell bulk food to restaurants. You'll be hearing a lot about this wonderful shopping area in the next few weeks/months, and once again I have to thank my friend Keith for finding it and taking me there.
Anyway, given where I was, I figured this beverage, two kinds of Vitamalt, was African in origin. Therefore, I was somewhat surprised to read that they were produced in Denmark. Their route to my hand was quite circuitous, too. One bottle mentioned import companies from Trinidad, Jamaica, Panama, and Denmark, while the other noted all of these plus Columbia. Further reading revealed that Vitamalt is most popular in the Caribbean and Africa. Even the manufacturer, Royal Unibrew, admits that this product is only a niche product in Europe, and therefore Denmark as well. So we have the strange situation of a product being more popular in other countries than in its own. I tried looking up other examples of this, and only really came up with Fanta. It's made by the American Coca-Cola company (and was developed by a Coca-Cola employee in Germany during World War II*) but is more heartily consumed in African and Latin American countries. Perhaps one of the reasons for Vitamalt's popularity is because it's a non-alcoholic malt beverage. So cultures that forbid drinking alcohol can still enjoy a beer-ish type beverage. But, this obviously isn't the only reason. Vitamalt, as the name suggests, gets a fair bit of mileage about its status as a healthier energy drink. It contains many B vitamins, fiber, and some types also contain antioxidants. (The caffeine in it is clearly not exactly healthy, but something has to give the drink a "kick," I suppose.) Keeping with its healthy promoted image, Vitamalt sponsors various athletic clubs and events, especially in the Caribbean, and its website offers fitness tips, etc.
I was able to locate Vitamalt Plus Acai/Guarana/Aloe Vera (which came with a purple label on a green, 330 mL (11.2 ounce) bottle), and Vitamalt Plus Aloe Vera/Ginseng/Royal Jelly (which had a yellow and red label on the same size green bottle. The drink itself is a dark brown, and resembles a dark beer. Sadly, it doesn't taste like a beer. I absolutely despised both kinds. Both sorts tasted the same to me, too--despite the difference in the ingredients. I always try to finish a decent serving of the exotics I discuss on this blog, but I couldn't punish myself this time. I drain poured both after only a few ounces. They were totally gross, with almost a soy sauce-like flavor, only way off. In an odd way I can understand that they're good for you--and just like many edibles that are good for you, they don't taste good at all.
So, as you can probably tell, I won't be buying this these again, even if I do get another chance. Instead I'll imbibe alcoholic malt beverages. And then maybe I'll get my B vitamins by drinking a Gatorade or something. And I like many of Bob Marley's songs, but I don't agree with his taste in beverages, it appears.
* I kept reading online articles about the Nazi history behind Fanta online. Then a look at the urban myth-debunking website Snopes indicated that this isn't fair. Evidently although inventor Max Keith was in Germany during the World War II era, he never was a member of the Nazi Party, and couldn't be shown to be a sympathizer, even.

The neighbourhood of 24-storey apartment buildings needed some rejuvenation.
By adding a much needed modern design, the visual impact was uplifted.
Exterior sandblasted glass with truss motives create a market feel for the patrons.
The residents needed a modern variety store in the area, as the area is under-serviced.

About the Author
Read an Excerpt
Woodbridge Hall, Leicestershire, England, 1816
Dominic Granville seldom troubled himself with the running of his household. He had a spinster sister and a host of servants to take care of that. Besides, he had plenty to occupy him, between his land and its tenants. Oh, yes, and his children.
His assumption that things would continue very much as they had for the past five years had proved correct. Until today.
Until he'd opened the letter newly arrived from London, fixed with a seal of aristocracy that he remembered from his school days at Eton, but hadn't had much occasion to see since.
Dominic reread the letter, penned in a firm, elegant hand. It said exactly what he thought it had on his first reading.
He tugged the bellpull behind his desk. While he waited for his butler, he scrutinized the letter a third time. How inconvenient.
"Sir?" Molson had a habit of materializing silently; somehow he'd opened the library door without Dominic noticing.
Over the years, Dominic had mastered the art of hiding his start of surprise, so now he looked up calmly.
"Is Miss Somerton in the schoolroom?" he asked.
"I believe, sir, Miss Somerton and the children are" Molson hesitated "in pursuit of lepidoptera."
"Chasing butterflies?" Dominic said blankly. "Why?"
"Miss Somerton felt it was an occupation Masters Thomas and William should practice, sir. I believe she called it a lesson in nature sciences."
"What about the girls?" Dominic asked. "Shouldn't they be stitching something?"
"Misses Hester, Charlotte and Louisa are also pursuing lepidoptera."
Dominic frowned. In the past three weeks alone, he'd had to send word to the governess that shrieking outside the library window wasn't acceptable. That allowing the children to drink lemonade in the billiard roomwhich, technically, was forbidden territoryleft a sticky residue everywhere. Both times, instead of contrition, her response had been to invite him to play with the children. Extraordinary.
When he'd found her timing the children as they slid down the banisters, his instinct had been to dismiss her on the spot. For his sister's sakeMarianne had hired the woman, and would be distressed at having to replace herhe'd constrained his reaction to the delivery of a stern lecture about safe pursuits.
Maybe today's letter was timely, after all. "Send Miss Somerton to me as soon as they come inside," he ordered.
"Certainly, sir." Molson's confiding tone said he knew just why Dominic needed to see the governess. The butler glided from the room.
Dominic wondered if he was the last to hear the news. He seldom traveled to London these days, and didn't read the society pages of the newspaper. Unlike his butler, apparently. He presumed Marianne hadn't
A scream from outside the library brought him to his feet. He strode to the door and flung it open.
The entrance hall teemed with peopleall five of Dominic's children, Molson and a footman on his hands and knees, grimacing as he groped behind the oak chest that had been in the family since Elizabethan days. A maid stood pressed against the wall, her hand over her mouth: she must be the screamer. The last participant in this pandemonium was the governess, Miss Serena Somerton, who was patting the maid's shoulder.
"There, there, Alice," she soothed. "It was only a lizard. It couldn't possibly harm you."
Which told Dominic all he needed to know. "Thomas," he barked.
Silence fell, sudden and absolute.
Eleven-year-old Thomas stepped forward. "Yes, Papa?"
His twin sister, Hester, younger by thirty minutes, slipped her hand into his. Whatever trouble Thomas was in, Hetty would insist on sharing it. Which made it dashed hard for Dominic to discipline his son.
"Did you bring a lizard inside, Thomas?" he asked.
"Yes, Papa, but it was one I'd never seen before, and it was bright green and it looked right at me."
"It's very beautiful," Hetty said loyally.
The younger girls, Charlotte and Louisa, nodded.
"Only, it escaped," Thomas explained, as if Dominic might not have guessed.
Dominic rolled his eyes. "Did I not expressly forbid the bringing inside of wildlife because of the pain and inconvenience the household suffers when it escapes, as it invariably does? If my dogs can live outside, so can your lizard."
A flicker of agreement crossed the face of Gregory, the footman, who was straining to reach farther behind the chest. Seven-year-old William sucked in a tiny breatheither in awe at his brother's daring to disobey, or in fear of the consequences.
"Yes, sir," Thomas said. "I'm very sorry."
With a tiny jerk of his head, Dominic indicated the maid, still being thoroughly shoulder-patted by Miss Somerton.
"I'm very sorry, Alice," Thomas said.
"I didn't mind at all, Master Thomas," the maid lied brazenly, eyeing Dominic as if he was about to take a switch to his son's behind. "Like you said, it was very pretty."
Thomas flashed her the charming smile that, more often than not, got him off the hook.
What discipline would Miss Serena Somerton employ against this offense? Dominic wondered. He turned his attention to the governess. Goodness, she looked as if she'd been dragged backward through a bush.
An assortment of leaves and twigs clung to the skirt of her pale gray dress. Her bonnet was decidedly askew, and although Dominic was no expert on fashion, he was fairly certain the blond tresses curled on her shoulders were meant to be inside the bonnet.
And she had a smudge on her nose.
The urge to restore order, to reach out with a handkerchief and wipe away that smudge, was almost overwhelming. But of course, he couldn't do that.
"Children, could you all please go to the schoolroom immediately." The governess belatedly recalled her duties. "We will sketch some of the butterflies we observed." She held up a hand to forestall Thomas's protest. "I'm sure that when Gregory finds Captain Emerald" Captain Emerald must be the lizard "he will take him outside."
"You'll put him somewhere safe, Gregory, won't you?" Thomas pleaded.
"Yes, Master Thomas," the footman said through gritted teeth.
Dominic suspected Gregory considered the safest place for the lizard to be under the heel of his shoe.
"Miss Somerton, may I see you in the library?" Dominic asked, as the children traipsed upstairs in a semiorderly manner.
"Certainly, Mr. Granville." She took a step toward him as she began untying the strings of her bonnet, the brim of which had an unmistakable dent.
"I suppose you'll want to tidy yourself first," Dominic said.
She looked surprised, but said agreeably, "As you wish." She lifted the bonnet from her head.
Alice shrieked; Molson made an exclamation, quickly muffled.
Miss Somerton turned to stare at them. "What's wrong?"
"It appears, Miss Somerton, you have a lizard on your head," Dominic said.
The green creature (emerald was a gross exaggeration) perched motionless, as if moving might reveal its location to people who hadn't noticed it.
Dominic braced himself for the governess to fall into a faint; he would be obligated to catch her.
Instead, she stilled, not in panic, but in cautious relief. "Isn't that just like a lizard?" she said. "I didn't even feel it, the stealthy little creature!" She beamed at the butler. "Rather like you, Mr. Molson."
So she, too, found the butler's ability to materialize out of nowhere disconcerting? Molson appeared to take being compared to a lizard as a compliment; his countenance retained its butlerish impassivity, but his eyes twinkled. Had Dominic observed his butler's eyes twinkling before?
"I don't suppose you have a jar you could put over Captain Emerald, Mr. Granville?" Miss Somerton asked.
"No, Miss Somerton, I do not carry a jar on my person for the purpose of trapping lizards on young ladies' heads." Dominic stepped closer. "But if you remain still, I hope to pluck it from your hair. With your permission."
It seemed to take her a moment to realize he was asking for that permission.
She smiled suddenly, but carefully, so as not to move her head. "Pluck away, Mr. Granville, please."
Her blue eyes were alight with humor. Dominic found himself grinning in return; the situation was quite absurd.
Though Miss Somerton was of above average height, he still looked down on her hair, which was, he noted objectively, a color the poets called flaxen. He lowered his fingers in a pincer movement and grabbed the lizard.
"Ha!" he murmured under his breath.
"Am I to assume from your cry of triumph, Mr. Granville, that you have Captain Emerald in your grasp?" Miss Somer-ton asked. "And that I am therefore free to move?"
"I have the creature, yes, but one of its feet has become tangled in your hair." Dominic was suddenly aware he was closer than he'd ever been before to his children's governessand that he was touching her hair. Chaperoned by a butler, a footman and a housemaid, to be sure, but still He wasn't sure if this morning's letter made the proximity more or less acceptable. "May I, er, attempt to extract it?"
"That would be an excellent idea." She encouraged him in much the same tone she used with Thomas.
Which had the effect of removing any improprietywhich was goodbut at the same time relegated her employer to the status of one of her charges.
Dominic narrowed his eyes and applied himself to his task. "By the way, I wouldn't describe my earlier reaction as a cry of triumph, Miss Somerton."
"My mistake," she said demurely.
"You might hear such a cry from me in, say, the hunting field," he continued, "but I scarcely think capturing a lizard is worthy of acclaim."
"Slaughtering a large animal is a far more admirable achievement," she said.
Dominic paused in his untangling to meet her eyes. They were wide and innocent.
He wasn't fooled. No wonder his children were running wild! Their governess valued chasing butterflies and lizards above the academic and sporting pursuits essential to the life of an English country gentleman.
Dominic freed the lizard at last and took a relieved step back. "Gregory, could you take this and deal with it as you see fit?"
"Yes, sir," the footman said with grim pleasure.
"Oh, Gregory, no," Miss Somerton protested. "You wouldn't harm one of God's creatures, would you?"
Gregory looked uncertain at this invocation of the deity. "It's a pest, miss. And it frightened Alice," he added virtuously.
"Only for a moment," the maid said. A quelling look from Molson sent her hurrying toward the kitchen.
"Gregory " Miss Somerton clasped her hands in front of her and gave the man a look so beseeching, Dominic was amazed the servant didn't melt into submission. "I realize you've been grossly inconvenienced by Captainby this lizard. It definitely does not deserve your mercy. But Thomas is anxious to have it as a pet."
When Gregory scowled at the mention of Thomas, she added quickly, "Hetty is, too. I'm pleading with you, for Hetty's sake, to leave it in the stables. In a jar. With a few twigs and leaves for comfort. And maybe a fly or twothe common lizard eats invertebrates, so any insect will do. A worm would be wonderful, if you happen to come across one."
As her list of demands grew more unreasonable, Dominic almost laughed. Clever of her to include the blameless Hetty in her plea for a reprieve for the lizard.
And plea it was, since strictly speaking she couldn't order Gregory to do anything. It was an awkward situation for Miss Somerton, Dominic knew. Since she was neither a member of the family nor a guest, she had no authority over the servants. But her status was unquestionably above Gregory's even more now than it had been.
"Unfortunately, miss, Mr. Molson would need to excuse me from my duties for me to perform such tasks." Gregory directed a hopeful glance at the butler, clearly wanting permission to be denied.
"You may do as Miss Somerton asks, Gregory," Molson said, and the footman departed in reluctant possession of one green lizard.
"I shall tell Thomasand Hettythe good news," Miss Somerton declared.
"The library first, if you please," Dominic said, deliberately forgetting his suggestion that she tidy herself. If he waited for the governess to comport herself in a more orderly fashion, he would be here until midnight.

I have been managing successful integrated marketing communications programs for over 15 years. These programs have always involved online marketing. In the mid-90s, at a small biotechnology company offering cancer genetic testing, we used the web to enhance our direct mail program. Since we knew we couldn't answer every question about our services in a brochure or letter, we created online materials to supplement our direct mail and trade show efforts. At Essex Property Trust, I worked with over 100 individual property managers and a database consultant to build a tool that would allow the property managers to post ads to Craigslist that maintained a strong brand image but allowed them the flexibility to be creative with what made their property stand out. We also launched new landing pages for the 100+ properties. At EMQ FamiliesFirst, my primary responsibility has been our online marketing efforts. These have included our main web site and several micro-sites, search engine marketing, search engine optimization and social media (Facebook and Twitter).
