WASHINGTON - WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal regulators voted Wednesday to require companies to reveal more information about how they pay their executives amid a public outcry over compensation.
The Securities and Exchange Commission voted 4-to-1 to expand the disclosure requirements for public companies.
Company policies that encouraged excessive risk-taking and rewarded executives for delivering short-term profits were blamed for fueling the financial crisis.
The SEC also changed a formula that critics say allowed companies to understate how much their senior executives are paid. At issue is how public companies report stock options and stock awards in regulatory filings. Such awards often make up most of top executives' pay.
The new requirements include information on how a company's pay policies might encourage too much risk-taking.
Separately, the agency voted unanimously to require thousands of investment advisers who have custody of clients' money to submit to annual surprise exams by outside auditors.
The surprise audits would allow independent accountants to review the books and verify that the money is there. The snap audits would apply to about 1,600 investment advisers that don't use third-party custodians, out of roughly 11,000 advisers registered with the SEC.
This move is aimed at plugging gaps that allowed disgraced money manager Bernard Madoff to deceive investors.
The expanded executive pay disclosure rules will take effect next spring, when companies send annual proxy disclosures to shareholders.
The changes will help investors make better-informed voting decisions for the companies in which they hold stock, SEC Chairman Mary Schapiro said.
"By adopting these rules, we will improve the disclosure around risk, compensation and corporate governance, thereby increasing accountability and directly benefiting investors," Schapiro said before the vote.
But Commissioner Kathleen Casey said she opposed some of the new requirements, such as added information on qualifications of directors and candidates for the board, that she said could be "unduly burdensome."
As a result, Casey said she was voting against the rule as a whole.
It was the first final rule adopted by the SEC this year under Schapiro's tenure. Numerous proposals have been made by the commissioners.
—Legal actions involving the company's executive officers, directors and nominees for the board.
—The role played by diversity as a factor in choosing candidates for the board.
—Potential conflicts of interest on the part of compensation consultants retained by the company.
The Obama administration imposed pay curbs on banks that received federal bailout money. Since then, eight of the largest such banks have either repaid or said they will repay their federal money, largely to escape caps on executive pay.
The Federal Reserve has set a February deadline for the 28 biggest U.S. banks — including Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase & Co., Citigroup Inc., Bank of America Corp. and Wells Fargo & Co. — for submitting 2010 compensation plans. The Fed also will be encouraging, though not requiring, banks to revise this year's pay plans if they are out of step with principles the Fed has proposed to limit risk.
Anger over lavish Wall Street pay has led some U.S. banks to take pre-emptive action. Goldman Sachs, for example, has said it won't give cash bonuses to 30 top executives. Instead, the bonuses will be paid in stock that can't be cashed in for five years.
Companies will have to disclose how pay is determined in departments involved in the riskiest activities — or departments that produce a big chunk of company profits.
The new requirements were proposed by the SEC and opened to public comment in July. They build on rules the agency adopted in 2006.
Under current rules, companies don't have to reveal the full value of stock options they give an executive. Instead, they must disclose in their annual proxy statements only the portion of an options award that vests that year.
The new rule will require companies to show in a summary table the estimated value of all stock-based awards on the day they are granted. The SEC's 2006 rules had relegated those totals to a separate table that investors often overlook or find hard to decipher.
An example is the case of a company that decides its CEO deserves $10 million worth of stock options, to vest in equal installments over four years. Under current rules, the company would have to include only $2.5 million — one-fourth of the total of the $10 million total — in the summary table.

Fantasy Football Librarian: Orange you excited about the tourney?!
My mom and dad lived in New York City back in the late 60s, early 70s and they have both talked about how glorious spring in New York can be. And my friends, I can now concur. I don't want to get my hopes up since I realize it's the funkiest of all weather months (you know I love it), but take the near 70 degree temps we've had here lately and combine them with daylight stretching later into the evening...and you've got one happy librarian. I don't work on Fridays, so I'm trying to figure out where I can take my laptop to spend some time outside while still watching tomorrow's big tourney games. Man, life is good!

GoRecipes is a food delivery website with a major difference. Instead of delivering fully prepared meals, GoRecipes delivers recipes with premium gourmet ingredients all pre-packed to the recipe specifications. This not only gives busy people the chance to try their hand at cooking, but also gives them a healthier and more affordable alternative that comes from cooking one’s own meals. We cater to both the working professionals’ busy daily schedule and special occasions such as birthdays, anniversaries and Valentine’s Day.
GoRecipes has two primary platforms for distribution: a website and a mobile application. People can easily access our products when at home, and on-the-go with our mobile application. These platforms positions GoRecipes competitively in an increasingly connected world.
The recipes offered are simple, quick and easy to cook.

GoRecipes also makes deliveries daily. In a market where many food delivery companies deliver the next day, it is among the fastest turnaround times in the market right now. Orders have to be made before a cut-off time, however, in order to receive it in the same day window.
•	Recipe delivery is an emerging market with plenty of growth potential. Market research indicates a growing demand for home cooked meals, while the primary constraint has been time or lack thereof.
•	Sales growth is expected to be 213% after first year of operation, and 193% in the second year onwards as we consolidate our assets and step up marketing to gain greater outreach.

guest speaker Brian Martin from Dolly Parton's "Imagination Library". "Cycling Without Age" was represented by Matthew and Sally. Rotarian Stewart Mclean visited us from the Chilliwack Rotary Club.
"Cycling Without Age" started in Copenhagen in 2012 and has grown quickly to include 42 other countries. The Chilliwack chapter (based in Yarrow) is one of 24 now in Canada. This glorified "rickshaw" allows a bike "pilot" to take two seniors on an outdoor ride in comfort and safety. The Rotary Trail and many dykes in our area lend themselves to this activity. Matthew stressed that slowness, friendly conversation and visiting familiar sites were part of this experience. Club members had the opportunity to experience these state-of-the-art, power-assisted bikes. Cycling without Age is looking for new pilots and financial assistance to acquire new bikes.
We were updated on the Dolly Parton Imagination Library that we have supported with $1666 in the past. Currently, 127 local children are receiving one book per month until the age of five. Studies show that children who are read to in their first five years score in the top 25% of their classes academically. Individuals may sponsor a local child for $215 (for a newborn, who will receive 60 books) or an older child. There are currently 160 local children on a waitlist. A fundraiser will be help at Brown's Social House 6-9 pm on April 10.

Twenty-something year old APN, married to my best friend, the man of my dreams who is in the AF, living the life in Germany, soon to be mommy, lover of red wine, traveling, coffee, reading and baking.
Today I'd like to welcome Wife on the Roller Coaster from Riding the Roller Coaster.
must have been. Germany & Europe are one thing, but Asia and Japan?
life in Japan was like. I cant wait to hear more!
“Jacksonville or Japan?” I stared at the phone in disbelief as my husband told me the options for our next duty station.
“What happened to California or Virginia?” I whined.
At the time, we were already living in Florida, and I had little desire to stay in the Sunshine State. On the other hand, Japan didn’t top my wish list either. I had never traveled outside the US before, I didn’t want to move a half a world away from my family, and I wasn’t exactly known for my adventurous personality. All signs pointed to Jacksonville.
But somehow, I heard myself blurting, “Japan. Let’s go to Japan.” And 5 months later, I was living overseas and turning Japanese.
After only a few days in Japan, I wondered how in the world I’d last 3 years in this country that was so foreign that I couldn’t even pretend to blend in. As a taller than average, blonde American woman, it was impossible not to stand out in a Japanese crowd. Besides my physical appearance, I could neither speak nor understand the language, I was rendered illiterate, and I was terrified of driving on the left side of roads that were half the width of the roads I’d driven on since I was 16. What had I gotten myself into? Was Jacksonville still an option?
It’s always difficult to try something new and jumping into a foreign culture is no different. I was tempted to barricade myself within base housing, to hide within the microcosm of America that we called the fishbowl. But I couldn’t hide. Not only would my adrenaline junkie husband not allow it, but the housing office wouldn’t allow it either. There were no openings on base housing when we arrived, and we had to move into a Japanese neighborhood while our names slowly crept up the waiting list.
For me, moving into a cho house 20 minutes away from base was precisely the push that I needed. Before I knew it, I was exploring Japanese stores and restaurants, driving with ease, and using Japanese phrases without hesitation. The chorus of the song “Turning Japanese” played in my head like my own personal mantra: I’m turning Japanese, I think I’m turning Japanese, I really think so.
Once I shed my training wheels, I graduated to more challenging feats. I became a regular at a local onsen (essentially a spa where everyone soaks in hot springs naked), I sang karaoke while drinking chuhais (a fruity Japanese mixed drink), and my husband and I tested out love hotels (that’s a blog post in and of itself). I joined a spouse club that went on monthly excursions, I signed up for Japanese craft classes, and I joined a dozen other Americans to compete in a Japanese half marathon. Our family traveled to Thailand and Korea and numerous locations throughout Japan. We toured castles, we saw geisha, we cheered at a pro baseball game, we admired cherry blossoms, we ate exotic food, we rode the Bullet Train. And the ultimate practice in cultural immersion? I welcomed my baby girl into the world in a Japanese clinic surrounded by non-English speaking nurses. I truly did turn Japanese.
Living overseas is a unique experience in one of two ways. It’s either a dream you hope you’ll always remember or a nightmare you pray you’ll soon forget. You either love it or you hate it. And it’s up to you which experience you end up having. I chose to make the most of our time overseas, and I will always cherish the memories and friends (and furniture!) I left Japan with. I can’t imagine hiding through an entire tour. I can’t imagine missing out on all of the amazing things I experienced. I can’t imagine choosing Jacksonville. I can’t imagine not turning Japanese.
Awesome post! My boyfriend is an adrenaline junkie too, but me not so much - it's good to hear of others being so different, yet thriving! Your big move out there will be very inspirational to others about to do the same.
What a great post! I can feel "Wife's" transition from living in the US to her embracing the Japanese lifestyle. What a wonderful experience for her and for her readers!
Great post! I'd be terrified of living in Japan too!
Wow! We lived in Hawaii for a year and a half and I had culture shock then. I can't even imagine living in Japan, I really can't. Like you said, it's all in what you make it. Such a great and inspirational story! Thank for sharing!
PS. Those "love hotels" sound...interesting lol!
Japan sounds like an amazing experience! I'd love it if we got stationed there someday.
These are always my favorite reads. Thanks for sharing!

This little museum is situated in Unnaryd, a village of 759 inhabitants in Småland, Sweden. It has a wonderful collection of ‘Bonader’, paintings made by the local peasant farmers in the 18th and 19th century. Every summer, Sue Prince, an English organic farmer who paints in the tradition of the Swedish ‘Bonad’ painting does a workshop in Bonad painting. This summer, in tandem with my exhibition at Hallands Konstmuseum, I was invited to contribute a workshop in pigment-making from wildflowers and plants to the week of Bonads painting.
One of the most common and important pigments used by the Swedish Peasant Painters was the blue pigment from woad (Isatis tinctoria). The plant would have been cultivated in Sweden. I sent some woad seeds to Gunilla and Sören Kabell, the guardians of the museum, earlier in the spring so that the plants would be ready for harvest at the workshop this summer.
The rosettes of woad tenderly cultivated by Gunilla Kabell.
The woad plant is a brassica, in the mustard and cabbage family. It is biannual, flowering only in the second year. It is during the first year, when it doesn’t flower that one harvests the leaves for extracting the indigo blue pigment.
Steeping the torn woad leaves in hot water.
First we tore up the freshly harvest woad leaves, then plunged them into water at 80c. We kept them at 80c for 10 minutes, then we plunged the whole pan of leaves into a tub of ice cold water. The aim is to cool the bath of leaves down to 55c within five minutes, according to a recipe by Jenny Dean.
Cooling down the woad bath with ice packs.
Then we strained off the leaves from the bath, taking care to squeeze out all the leaves.
Everyone joins in squeezing out the leaves.
Whisking oxygen into the woad bath.
The indigo contained within woad only becomes blue when it is in contact with oxygen. As we introduce oxygen into the woad bath by whisking, we start to see blue colour in the froth. When indigo is oxygenated, it also becomes insoluble in water. We pour the blue-containing liquid into jars and let the blue settle out on the bottom.
Jars of dark, indigo-containing liquid.
When the blue had settled out on the bottom, we syphoned off the brown brackish liquid that lay over it. At first it is very hard to see the deposit of blue pigment through the dark water. We didn’t want to loose any of the precious blue so we left an cm or so of the brown liquid over the blue deposit on the bottom.
Syphoning the brackish brown water from the blue indigo pigment.
We poured fresh clean water over the blue pigment and allowed it to settle out again. We repeated the syphoning and fresh water process until the water above the deposit of pigment was clear.
A close up of the deposit of indigo from woad on the bottom of the jar.
When the water was clear, we were ready to strain the pigment. The pigment particles are very small, so we used two layers of tightly woven cotton cloth.
Now that we had a blue, we needed yellows and reds to create a complete palette. For this we used a ‘laking process’, a variety of wildflowers to see what colours we could get.
For yellows, amongst others, we tried birch leaves, rosebay willowherb (Chamerion angustifolium), goldenrod (Solidago canadensis), and yarrow (Achillea millefolium). Birch leaves have been found to be one of the plants used by the bonads painters to make pigment. Ingalill Nyström completed her phd in autumn 2012, analysing the materials and technique used by the Southern Swedish bonads painters. It is the first time these works have undergone technical analysis and Ingalill was invited to come and give a fascinating talk about her findings at the museum on the first day of the week of workshops at Unnaryd.
Birches were important healing trees for the Swedish peasants, not only could they absorb toothache, but they could also absorb any emotional pain if you told the tree about your worries or sadness. Yarrow was also a medicinal herb, used to stem bleeding. Rosebay willowherb was given to cows to increase their milk yields – one of its many names in Swedish is ‘mjölkört’ (milk herb). The particular goldenrod pictured is Canadian goldenrod, which was grown in gardens and has now gone wild and is very common in Sweden. There are also some native goldenrods (Solidago virgaurea, S. alpestris) which can form hybrids with the native goldenrod where they grow together, as they do round Unnaryd. Goldenrod was used as a strengthening tonic and to treat kidney problems.
For reds we used madder roots and surprise webcap mushrooms for purples. Madder (Rubia tinctoria) would have been cultivated in Sweden, but there are also related native plants which contain the same red dyestuff in the roots. They are the bedstraws (Galium), such as lady’s bedstraw (Galium verum) and Northern bedstraw (Galium boreale). The roots are best kept for a year before use, so I brought some madder roots to the workshop, but I indicated the wild plants which are types of Galium.
Harvesting lady's bedstraw (Galium verum) roots for red.
These Lady’s bedstraw roots that I harvested will be used in a years time. It spreads through rhizomes so the best is to dig quite deep to find the larger, older roots that connect the various spreading clumps. I leave plenty of plants in each clump so that it is sustainable.
The process for making pigments from all of these plants uses the same ‘laking’ process which is distinct from the process of extracting indigo from woad. First the plant matter, the leaves, flowers or roots depending on the plant, is simmered in water with alum (potassium aluminium sulphate), ideally for a couple of hours to extract as much colour as possible. With the majority of plants it is best not to overheat, keeping it below boiling point at around 70c to 80c, as too much heat can destroy the beautiful colour.

In today's fast-paced and wired world, making new business contacts is becoming easier than ever before. However, some businesses are connecting with the wrong people, contacts who not only don't want their product or service but who are also not able to provide opportunity or greater market reach. The connections businesses need to focus on, and which are vital to your business--whether it be a product or service--are called high-level networkers (HLN), also known as center-of-influence connections.
To take your business to higher levels, you want to be a great networker and reach out to high-level people. HLNs are movers and shakers, decision-makers and action-takers.† They are active online and off, they know people, people know them, and more importantly, people listen to them. These connections can be key influencers in an industry or community, and they are the people who can help take your business to a higher level by connecting you with people or opportunities.
As a great networker, you must be flexible and approach connection-making as a constant outreach that extends far beyond an event or chamber mixer. Furthermore, be a risk-taker and ask people next to you what they do and where they are from; you never know who will be sitting on the airplane next to you, who will be behind you in a line, or who will be in a group discussion area in an online meeting place. Don't let these opportunities pass you by. Remember, don't hesitate to network with someone who has no obvious connection to your ambitions: Your new contact may be able to give you relevant names of his or her friends and colleagues.
Far too often, people don't reach out to a high-level connection in fear of rejection, forgetting that the whole point of networking is to reach out to people you don't yet know. Many high-level networkers can now be found on LinkedIn, a business connection site. If you don't yet know them on LinkedIn, simply ask for an introduction through a mutual connection, or take the risk and ask if they would like to connect. Give them a reason why you would like to add them into your professional network. You will most likely find that they too are an open networker and that they will gladly accept the invite.
Reach Out: Commit to connecting with a minimum of 25 new HLNs every six months to keep your company in front of the "make it happen" community. You will find them online with at least 500 connections; they are active and posting daily as well as have complete profiles with recommendations and testimonials. You can also find them in communities at events, in political circles, leading community organizations, or media personalities such as news anchors, radio hosts or reporters.
Follow Up: One of the biggest mistakes business owners make is not following up to build and maintain long-term relationships. It is vital after you meet with a contact to write a thank you note. Tell your contact how much he or she helped you, and refer to particularly helpful, specific advice. Everyone--even the most high-level executives--like to feel appreciated.
Keep in Touch: In addition to immediate follow-up after a meeting or conversation, keep in touch with your contacts. This way, they may think of you if an opportunity comes up, and they will also be forthcoming with new advice. It's important to stay on their radar screens without being imposing or invasive. And, of course, if you get that new job or land that deal, be sure to tell them and thank them again for their help.
Make it Easy: You also need to make it easy for your contacts to keep in touch with you as well as help you. Explain what you specifically want and ask detail-oriented questions. For example: "I'm looking for opportunities in hotel hospitality. Do you know anyone who is a decision-maker at a resort or high-end hotel in the San Francisco area?† May I have their names and phone numbers? May I use your name when I introduce myself to them?" Also be sure to have your complete contact information on all the social networking sites on which you are active.
Listen: Most people love to talk about themselves. By asking your contact to offer valuable insight from his or her personal experiences and successes, he or she will feel important and respected. Who doesn't like to feel like an expert? Be sure to avoid making general demands, such as "Do you know of any jobs that would be good for me?" This sort of question is overwhelming, and it puts an unnecessary burden on your contact.

Bart, who we can see in this picture with a very confident attitude, is one of the most loved characters in The Simpsons series, along with Homer. You now have the chance to change his outfit and give him the style you want, and change the typical colors that we are used to se ehim in, which are orange and blue, although you can also color him in his traditional colors. As you want! Although he seems to have a very kind attitude in this printing page, you can never trust Bar, because he always has mischief going on in his head, and ends up getting in trouble. Admittedly, he is actually a very good boy deep down who is just a little bit naughty.
This coloring page has been painted 9163 times online. Ranking 0 of The Best Coloring Pages.
A great drawing, whether it is to print it in blank or to color it online, of the famous character Bart Simpson, the oldest of Marge and Homer Simpson’s children. His real name is Bartholomew J. Simpson, and is ten years old. In the animated series, the character of Bart is used in several occasions as an excuse to originate fun plots thanks to his naughtiness that can affect several other secondary characters. Also, along his sister Lisa, they sometimes follow hints and clues that help them discover interesting and intriguing mysteries, like undoing Sideshow Bob’s plans (mostly related with killing Krusty or Bart, who always stands in the middle of his plans), reunite Krusty the Clown with his father, help Moe find a girlfriend or help Apu to take out the Kwik-e-mart business. However, at school, his role is that of a bad student that moves masses with his misdeeds, and always upsets his teacher, Edna Krabappel, and the School principal, Seymour Skinner. It’s hard to believe that Marr Groening, the creator of the Simpsons, created Bart when improvising to comply with the stereotype of a naughty boy, that later notably enlarged giving him several roles in the series.

The former Deputy-Governor of Osun State, Sen. Iyiola Omisore has canvassed that wealthy, philanthropist and good spirited peoples in the society should partner with hospitals to provide the needful services to the populace.
He said this is necessary because the existing infrastructures put in place in the 70’s when the country’s population was less than 50 million are those still in use now that our population is over 180 million.
Omisore stated this at Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospitals Complex, Ile-Ife while presenting gifts to in-patients and settling outstanding debts of detained patients some who had been certified okay since April, May 2016 but cannot pay so as to go home.
Sen. Omisore who arrived the Teaching Hospitals at 7:00 am on new year day, was received by the Chief Medical Director of the Hospitals, Prof. Victor Adetiloye and others top management staff.
He visited all the wards that have patients and speaks words of hope to them. He was particularly touched by a patient whose left leg was amputated and his right leg seriously injured based on the accident he had with a trailer whose brake had failed and rammed into his car on Akure-Ife Road.
The former chairman Senate committee on appropriation implored spirited peoples to partner with the Hospitals on Public Private Partnership (PPP) in order for them to keep delivering on their services.
Appreciating Dr. Omisore for his gesture by paying outstanding bills of detained patients and rejoicing with those hospitalized on the first day of the year, Prof. Victor Adetiloye, Chief Medical Director, OAUTHC, Ile-Ife, said more of Sen. Omisore’s caliber is needed in the society to help the underprivileged.
For instance, many of the detained patients have been certified okay since April, May last year but don’t have money to pay. Many are waiting for today because they know Sen. Omisore will be here to pay their outstanding bills.
Adetiloye said, “this Hospitals is international because of major feat we are recording here.We have successfully performed fourteen open heart surgery( first of its kind in the country). But the Hospitals needs new building that will makes it look attractive”.
He thanked Sen. Omisore for the assistance rendered to the Hospitals during his tenure as Senator of the Federal Republic where many buildings facilities dotted the Hospitals.
Also, Sen. Iyiola Omisore also visited Covenant Orphanage & Welfare Homes in Moro, Ife North LG where he gave them gifts items.
The yearly visit to Hospitals and Orphanage by Sen. Iyiola Omisore started in the year 2008.

With the present project, FAU literally invites readers to a journey through the ironic, bewildering mind of the young Swiss artist Oppy De Bernardo. A glossy white box subtly reminding us of some vague yet unmistakable iconography, discloses a black and gold book that, besides being an articulate recapitulation of the artist’s imagery, mirrors the very same experience which spectators undergo by entering “Scacciapensieri”, the site-specific installation that De Bernardo has created for the Ala Est of the Museo Cantonale di Lugano.
‘Scacciapensieri is a work that compels us to complete a journey […] intended to push us to that boundary zone between life and death […] The visitor is catapulted into the unreal dimension of an architecture dominated by a pervasive whiteness that totally transforms the usual articulation of the space […] an alienating environment devoid of all spatial referents, provoking the sensation that we are detaching from earthly reality and entering a dimension of pure light, in keeping with the accounts of those who have had near-death experiences.
Excerpt from the book text, by Elio Schenini.
Oppy De Bernardo, born in 1970 in Locarno (CH), where he lives and works.
Amongst his solo shows and site-specific installations, we may recall “Tu con quest’acque a rinfrescarlo impara” at I Sotterranei dell’Arte (Antico Monastero delle Agostiniane, Monte Carasso, CH, 2011), “Radix” at Frohe Ussicht (Samstagern, CH, 2011), “Le invasioni barbariche” at La Rada (Locarno, CH, 2008), “Campione N. 1” at Cinema di Rialto (Locarno, 2007). His works has been featured in collective exhibitions, amongst which “Little Constellation” at Careof DOCVA (La Fabbrica del Vapore, Milan, 2011), “Che c’è di nuovo? Uno sguardo sulla scena artistica emergente in Ticino” at Museo Cantonale d’Arte (Lugano, 2010), Swiss Art Awards (Basel, 2010), International Festival of Intermedia Art Maribor (Maribor, Slovenia, 2010).
In 2008, he won, with his work Relax, the Epson-FAR Prize organized by the Antonio Ratti Foundation in Como.

About this time every year, Oklahomans watch thousands upon thousands of acres of land burn up in wildfires. However, this fire season has been better than usual due to the low grassy fuel loads caused by drought during last year’s growing season.
While we have seen some recent moisture across much of the state, how big of an effect does it have on wildfire this time of year?
Not as much as people might think, according to J.D. Carlson, fire meteorologist in the department of biosystems and agricultural engineering at Oklahoma State University, and program director of OK-FIRE.
There are two types of fuels available to wildfires - dead and live. Examples of dead fuels are dead leaves, dead grasses and dead wood on the ground surface. Live fuels include any vegetation that has any degree of greenness, which is essentially limited this time of year to evergreens, such as eastern red cedar.
The moisture content of dead fuels is controlled exclusively by hour-to-hour weather changes. Dead fuels are further categorized into four classes according to their diameters: 1-hour, 10-hour, 100-hour and 1,000-hour fuels.
The dead grasses and other dead fuels that now cover much of Oklahoma, falling in the 1-hour and 10-hour classes, are the state’s primary fuel before spring green up.
The recent moisture experienced by the state over the last 30 days has helped the moisture levels of the larger 100- and 1000-hour dead fuels, as well as the live woody vegetation out there such as eastern red cedar. However, it has had minimal effect on the 1- and 10-hour dead fuels, which are critical to the start and maintenance of wildfires.
“Because these smaller-diameter fuels can dry out quickly, fire danger can be high during appropriate weather conditions and will remain so until spring green up occurs and the live green grasses serve to mitigate the fire danger,” Carlson said.

PAMELA MACGREGOR(PM)Actually it was a toss up between art and biology. Obviously art won out in college.
PM I am fortunate enough to have a lovely studio. We remodeled a part of my horse barn. It is small and cozy but well equiped for my needs.
PM My day begins at the computer and moves on to do daily chores in the barn. Once the chores are done I slip into the studio for most of the day. I try to treat my studio time as a regular work day.
PM My time spent in the studio is split evenly between process and outcome. I experiment quite and bit and try to develop new idea for workshops and my own work, but I also do exhibition pieces. I seldom do production work for galleries.
PM I call the element of uncertainty in my feltmaking the “Ah ha” moment. It is what makes the entire process interesting to me. Working three dimensionally can be a challenge. How I mentally invision something does not always work out well in the actual engineering stage. Many twist and turns happen before the works is actually on display.
PM I find some of the simpler tools found in the kitchen and hardware stores the best. My four favorites are the rolling tool I made, a spring loaded, long needlenose plyer, a dish drainer and flour sack dish towels to be the tools I use daily.
PM I usually have an idea or a sketch of what I what to do, but quite often the felt tells me where to go once I am actually in the project. I embrace spontineity.
sleep.. I keep a sketch pad right next to the bed.
PM Felting gives me so many options. I feel there are never any misstakes only discoveries. Every piece of felt can be used in some way.
PM Relax and breath is the best advice, but I often find myself holding my breath.
PM Mornings when no one is home.
PM Georgia O’Keefe, Picasso,The Dali Lama, Mother Teresa, my Father, and Frieda Khalo would be very inspiring and interesting people to invite to dinner.
PM Sculpture is always exciting to me. I also really enjoy Elis Vermuelen’s instalations.
PM I would be lost without my husband and his loving support.
PM Yes the advancement of computers and technology have impacted my world by bringing felters into a larger and much more connected global community of felters. It is also so wonderful to be able to see what so many felters are creating at a push of a button.
PM The wool, it brings me joy. I love the touch, the smell and all that can be made from it.
PM I will continue my studies of three dimensional felt work and hopefully include other mediums into it.

Itching, scratching from bug bites, allergies, rashes, poison ivy, or chicken pox…..? Make an all natural calamine stick to keep with you at all times. Easy to use, keep it in the car or toss it in a suitcase for travel. Itch no more!
2 ozs fixed oils (weighed) combination of sweet almond, coconut, sunflower or any oil you like can be used.
6 tblsps. calamine powder (measured) recipe for making powder is below.
To make Calamine Powder – weigh 3 ozs of Zinc Oxide with 1/2 tsp. of Red Iron Oxide blend in Magic Bullet or coffee grinder.
Over low heat, melt beeswax then add the fixed oils until warm. Add the calamine powder and whisk in until smooth. Keep it over the heat until the mixture is a smooth consistency. Add a few drops of Tea Tree Essential Oil. Pour immediately into tube containers. Let cool, label. If you are going to use this stick for chicken pox, then reduce the oil amount by half so the finished stick will be a little dryer to allow the pox to dry up.

Lord, search my heart, show me who I am without you.
Today, I lost it with my kids.
Yesterday, I wished I had a bigger house.
Sunday, I blamed my husband for my big mess up.
I see my desk covered with papers. They’re tumbling off, pressing against the walls and pouring out the windows like an avalanche. The stones have shattered my mirrors and cracked the tile floors.
A man is coming. He’s collecting my papers…one by one.
A man is coming. He lifts the heavy stones, balancing them on his back.
There’s something else on his back too.
He leaves my house and painstakingly searches for my neighbors. They have a collection of papers and stones… just like me.
Not everyone lets him in. They sit atop their stones clutching their mass of papers and weep.
It breaks my heart. I know it breaks His more.
Now the man begins his climb. I know the story. You know the story. He carries his cross. I imagine him bearing the stones and crumpled papers scribbled with black sin.
He doesn’t drop anything. Not a single thing.
He grips my written sin; the soldiers hammer nails through his hands.
My selfishness: Nailed to the cross.
My arrogance: Nailed to the cross.
My apathy: Nailed to the cross.
Blood flows, drenching the papers in his hand, having wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against me.
I watch every sin of my life nailed to the cross.
He took it all away, having nailed it to the cross.
He took it all away.
The only stone remaining was rolled away.
I have baby onesies with no pudgy legs to fill them. I have space where I hung dresses for a job I didn’t get.
Having empty space in our lives, doesn’t mean we’re called to endure emptiness. Once a woman wept outside an empty tomb and was met by the hope of the world.
Remember Mary, the shamed woman whose heart was seen by Jesus? In Him, she was most likely cherished for the first time. Then she witnessed the desire of her heart mocked, beaten, and nailed to a cross.
Mary’s new identity was mercilessly pinned to a piece of wood. Her hope was in Jesus. And now it hung lifeless for the whole world to see.
Our desires may be holy and epic! For me, wanting to adopt is that one desire I feel I’ve been watching die a gruesome death. It’s out of my hands. All I can do is stand aside and feel the fool for believing. Have you ever felt this way; that God entrusted you with a longing but it seems it’s a no-go?
I’m guessing Mary may have felt this way. She proclaimed the hope of the world had come, and the next day they rolled a stone sealing His grave.
Still, she knelt outside the tomb, where her unmet expectations lay buried and dead.
Dying to self is a true death. And it’s OK to treat it that way. As long as we don’t forget: We worship a God of resurrection!
Mary went to Jesus’ tomb, terrified and confused to find it hollow. She pleaded with the angels, asking where they’d taken him. (John 20:11-18). It’s not that she wanted Jesus to be dead, but it’s what she expected.
Sometimes, we’re so busy focusing on the hollowness of a situation…we miss the hallelujah!
We’re so much like Mary. If we’ve watched a desire of our heart be abused and buried, we visit the grave expecting it to stay that way forever.
We forget what hope looks like. When this happens, we can miss it staring us in the face.
But the world lies. There’s always a resurrection! Whatever’s lifeless, looks different after revival.
Jesus looked different. He was glorified. (Philippians 2:20-21) I think it’s why Mary didn’t recognize Him right away.
It’s the same with the desires of our hearts. It’s not that they aren’t lovely, but God has something planned to take our breath away! Something we haven’t considered. Something impossible.
This. Is. Faith. Standing outside a graveyard and believing resurrection will come.
We’re completing our Foster Certification. Something mind you, we said we’d NEVER do. God, through the past five years of loss and frustration, has been tirelessly crafting our powdered dreams into something completely different than what we expected to see. The idea of becoming Foster Parents was our equivalent of Mary mistaking Jesus for the gardener. We initially flipped out, “Where have you taken our dead dream?!!” I just wanted to remain face down, ugly crying like Mary.
Sometimes, it’s easier to sit in disappointment then to step into the unknown. This is a big unknown for us! But I know the sweet face of hope. I refuse to mistake Him.
We’re approaching a desolate space and expecting the impossible to happen.
We’re expecting God to resurrect all that was lost.
We’re expecting desires to look different.
Standing right in front of us, could be the glorified, holy, resurrected will for our lives.
“The mini-van sliding door of shame.” It’s a thing. You know, when you drop your kids at school, all humanity is watching, the door slides open, and two McDonald’s cups, a gazillion goldfish crackers and one muddy soccer cleat avalanche before an audience of teachers and students. Yeah. It’s a bummer.
“My car’s been way worse!” she giggled.
Let’s be honest, we’re all in the same mini-van. Let’s give grace as a free gift to each other. We have the power to turn someone’s shame into relieved acceptance by simply acknowledging -we’re actually human, too!
As we enter into a new school season, be the first to encourage another Mamma if she’s having a, “trash-just-rolled-out-of-my-car,” kind of day. She may be hitting some speed bumps you’re unaware of.
Sit with her in the space she feels “less-than”.
Give grace freely. It costs you nothing.

My poetry collection, Written Life, comes out on March 31st. In order to give a sneak peek at what it's all about, once a week for the next few weeks I'll be blogging about some of the content. It will give you a flavor for what's inside and hopefully pique your interest.
This theme focuses on the obvious. Houses and homes almost become characters in some of these poems. So much of our adult life is shaped by the home we remember. Then, when we become owners ourselves we forge our new identities around our living spaces. In these poems I write about houses old and new and all of the joy and sorrow that goes into home ownership.
Places both near and far are addressed in these works. Places that evoke a feeling or emotion or memory. These could include a building, a park, or even a whole state. These poems will take you to wide open spaces and small cramped places, cold dry places and places of warmth and love.
Growing up, our house seemed to have a revolving pet door. We were forever picking up strays, castaways, rescues and irresistible "freebies." Everyone with a soul has had a pet they loved at some time and these poems get at the heart of human/animal relationships. Most are lighthearted romps with dogs and cats of yesterday and today.
So, that is the first peek at the coming collection. When I've done readings, I have had a number of people tell me "I don't normally like poetry, but I like your poetry, which is about the best compliment a poet could get, I figure. I think you'll agree.
Sunday's post will be back to regular programming, but next Thursday I''ll take another look at then next three themes of Written Life.

Traditional Bridge – The most common type, a traditional bridge “bridges” the gap of your lost tooth. This is performed by securing two dental crowns to either side of the void. A traditional bridge is made out of ceramics or of porcelain that’s fused to metal.
Maryland Bonded Bridge – These bridges are made of plastic and supported by metal framework. A metallic wing on each side of the bridge is bonded to the teeth.
Cantilever Bridge – Cantilever means: anchored at only one end. These dental bridges are used to replace a tooth that doesn’t have supporting teeth on either side.
Normally, for a dental bridge you will require only three visits to our office.
On your first visit : we will prepare any of the teeth that will be supporting your new bridge. This is done by shaping your teeth to accommodate the bridge and the crowns to ultimately fit properly.
On your second visit : we bond the crowns to your supporting teeth. At this point, a mold is taken for the new bridge.
On your third visit : your new dental bridge is attached to the supporting crowns and your brand new smile awaits!
Your new smile is complete!

Drs. Eidelson will be happy to answer any questions you have about dental bridges and whether you're a candidate. Contact our top Philadelphia, Pa. 19147 dentist Office.

Must be old age, I suppose. Never mind, why don't we all park our zimmer frames and walking sticks as one in common cause, and I can tell you what's happening at the Rising Sun this weekend?
Stand Up Cinema is our monthly film club with a little bit of help from those nice folks at Real Time VIdeo. It’s the only cinema night in Reading where you can findshort films from local film-makers and a selection of contemporary and classic films that you won’t often find elsewhere. It’s also the only cinema night in town where you can enjoy a beer with your popcorn!
By the way, if you’d like to show a short film of your own, why not drop a line to info@real-time.org.uk? It doesn’t have to be the finished article, it just needs to be 10 minutes or less in length. It’s a great way to get some audience reaction.
The Fountain blends elements of fantasy, history, religion, and science fiction, weaving themes of eternal life and the fear of death through three stories separated in time. We are showing this film as part of Science Week.. The film touches on similar themes to the Science Week project (longevity and symbiosis) and we are very pleased to have Dr. Alistair Nunn from the University of Reading along to speak about some of the ideas presented in the film.
Dr Nunn works in the field of age-related diseases, cancer and metabolic syndromes. He is a fan of the movie and its philosophical content and will speak about some of the themes and questions that it raises.
Short films all start at 7.30 and The Fountain starts at 8.00 pm. Entry is £4.
A little piece of Cuba hidden away in Reading. A relaxed and friendly Latin party with lots of Latin music so you can dance, or just socialise. You can expect plenty of Salsa, tango and whatever the mood suggests: bachata, milonga, merengue and reggaeton. Maybe more!

This collection of poems is taken from those written over the last two years, up to May of this year, 1996. Most were composed during a residence in northern Northland. During that time we often had to drive down for business to Auckland, staying in the city for several days at a time. The contrasting attractions of both these environments proved creative.
Another creative source is the tension between that part of me that is celebratory, and that part that is depressive. In the one I am intrigued by life, and in the other irritated by it. This polarity finds expression in a religious faith, which is pervasively present in all my poetry, though in different guises.
For many reasons, mostly to do with personal freedom, I prefer life in the city, so these poems, though often romantic, do not reflect an imagery of ugly urban set against pure rural. I profoundly enjoy the country, but also much appreciate living amongst many people.
As we now live in Auckland, urban themes predominate. My southern origins are sometimes evident. The wide range of poems in this volume is deliberately chosen, to represent a broadness of interest and attention. This seems important to me at present.
Julian Oliver, my nephew, created the front cover, and, for reasons they will understand, the book is dedicated to Mary and Lindsay Johnson of Kaikohe.
From a Shed in Simon Urlich Rd.
This hitherto unpublished book of poems was found, in hardcopy, in the set of six boxfiles comprising Leicester Kyle's final literary remains handed over to me by David Howard during my visit to Dunedin on 21st June 2012.
Of these, two [III-IV] contained manuscripts of various of his works; two [V-VI] were devoted to copies of publications his work had appeared in; and two more [VII-VIII] had been used to store miscellaneous typescripts. I came across Message from a Lightboard in the second of this last category.
It dates from the period before Koroneho (1996-2001) and Options (1996-97), but still has a certain authority in indicating which among his earlier short poems Leicester might himself have thought worthy of preservation.
