WESTERN ADVOCATE. The Western Advocate was published in Austin between February 1843 and February 1844 and was considered to be a revival of Samuel Whiting's Austin City Gazette, which had ceased publication late in 1842. The Western Advocate was owned by James Webb and edited by George Knight Teulon. It generally appeared biweekly, except for a hiatus in the summer of 1843, when Teulon was ill. At first the paper was greeted warmly by other papers in the Republic of Texas. The Houston Morning Star called it "a neat, well printed and well conducted journal, [which] ably advocates the interests of the West, which, the editor justly remarks are identical with the true interests of the whole of Texas." The Galveston Texas Times spoke of it in a similar vein. However, this state of affairs did not last very long; the Western Advocate soon emerged as the voice of the Western, anti-Sam Houstonqv politics of Texas. To judge by the few surviving issues, reprinted excerpts, and rebuttals of its views by other newspapers, it functioned primarily as a political paper. It carried little local news and few advertisements but stressed whatever national and international news it could glean from infrequent exchanges with other papers. Austin was isolated from the rest of the republic, its population reduced, its business nonexistent, and its few inhabitants determined to hold on to the governmental archives (see ARCHIVE WAR). The Western Advocate opposed Houston's removal of the government from Austin, his naval policies, his Indian treaties, and the armistice with Mexico. Perhaps the most bizarre incident in the life of the Western Advocate was its announcement of an imaginary plot by Sam Houston to turn Texas over to the British. As condemned by the San Augustine Red-Lander for its fantasy, the plot took this turn. According to Teulon, Houston would work to see that Texas was returned to Mexican control, in return for which Great Britain would buy Texas from Mexico. Houston's alleged reward was to receive the title of Marquis of San Jacinto and an annual pension of £5,000 for life. After this story, the Western Advocate languished and was little noticed by its rivals. Sometime in February 1844 Teulon published his final issue, presented a moving valedictory, and announced his intention of leaving Texas. The Morning Star noted the demise of the paper and generously hailed Teulon as one of the "ablest and most indefatigable champions of the people of Western Texas." The Red-Lander later hailed the newly established La Grange Intelligencer as the successor to the Western Advocate, the voice of western Texas.

LAMONT, TEXAS. Lamont was west of U.S. Highway 59 three miles south of Livingston and seventy-three miles north of Houston in southern Polk County. Built during the 1890s, Lamont was said to have been named for Lamont, Ohio, the birthplace of the father of mill owner Middleton Tackaberry. The sawmill community was on the Houston, East and West Texas Railway, which had been important in leading to the development of the Polk County lumber industry. Lamont had its own post office from 1902 to 1905. As the lumber industry declined, however, Lamont and many other small mill towns ceased to exist. Only a few buildings remained as of the 1950s.

I was helping a customer today at work and we got to talking, eventually we ended up discussing colleges and our degrees and I was telling her about the children’s book I wrote and she thought it sounded awesome and then she got really excited because she said her brother and her dad actually run a publishing company and so she gave me their info to get in contact with them once the illustrations are finished….. THIS IS SO COOL. Honestly I’m expecting it to get shot down a few times anyway so I feel like the more publishers I can find to present it to the better. But Mickey keeps saying it won’t take that many since it is a children’s book so it’s only like 15 pages so it wouldn’t be much of a liability/cost for a company to get it printed and all of that. And anyway I swear it would not flop. I know I keep saying this but ugh I can’t wait to get at least some sketches and my copyright so I can post the whole thing for you all to see. I want so much feedback I’m getting anxious and jittery to get this thing rolling because I’ve never felt more confident about something I have written in my whole life. Can you even imagine if this happens and I would be a published author before even graduating with my degree?!

She was not the type of woman who’s entire life was chronicled with mine. She was the deepest crease of the book’s spine which when held, opened of its own accord to the beginning of her chapter with the pages stained with teardrops and smudged ink.
—  She wasn’t the beginning nor the happy ending, she was the 15 pages that held my heart embedded within each word.

1. does anyone watch high maintenance? isn’t that show absolutely unbelievable? last episode?

2. i’m trying to get myself to see leopard print as a neutral.

3. um… listening to a lot of taylor swift lately. what does it mean?

4. re-writing my BA thesis as a short(er) piece on method: 15-20 pages on portraiture as anthropological method - the impersonal (is personal) is political - representation and imperceptibility: eclipsing images of identity and individuation - (un)timeliness and tragedy.

5. Alcibiades, attachment, Bildung, Umbildung, enjoying my weirdness with wonderful creatures - and like more than once a day having that moment when i look at the person next to me and am like “who is this?”

6. everything is beautiful and horrible and borderline bearable - rite?

7. sometimes i shake, and its okay. just little ehler danlos things.

8. if i get a grant this academic year, i’ll do something interesting w my hair.

9. my apartment is dope and montreal is warm. come visit!

10. crescat scientia sensibilitas, vita excolatur

UPC: 879216020252

Biobehavioral Studies (Program)

Students interested in animal behavior who are majoring in Anthropology, Biology, or Psychology can choose a Program in Biobehavioral Studies. The purpose of the Program is to provide a broad foundation in the various approaches to the naturalistic study of the behavior of humans and other animals. A Program participant will major in one of the three departments and take an appropriate group of courses in the other two departments. These courses cannot be completed in a short time and interested students are urged to consult with one of the advisors as early as possible in their university career. The contact person in Psychology is Dr. Jin Ho Park.  Basic requirements for the Program include:

a. Satisfaction of major requirements of at least one of the three departments (each department offers courses that can contribute both to major requirements and to the Program).

b. Completion of at least five courses from the approved course list (available in the Psychology department office) including one course from the category "first courses in animal behavior," two courses from the category "associated fields", and two courses from "advanced courses in animal behavior" or "laboratory courses". At least five courses from the two departments outside the major department must be completed, including at least one course from each department.

c. A lab and/or field course is strongly recommended. Such a course will be required of Program participants when appropriate courses have been developed.

Participants must declare their intent to complete the Biobehavioral Program with the Registrar in order to have it appear on their transcript. This is accomplished in the same manner as a declaration of major.

"The Shape of Things" to Take Stage at UNA
Apr. 5, 2011

FLORENCE, Ala. – Love, relationships, art, honesty and seduction are a few of the themes that will come up in the 2001 Neil LaBute play “The Shape of Things” April 7-9 at 7:30 each evening at the University of North Alabama’s Norton Auditorium.

The play, which takes place in the mid-to-late 1990s in the American Midwest, follows the lives of four college students. When Adam meets a young woman named Evelyn, she begins to change Adam’s appearance and attitude to become the perfect man. The story focuses on how these changes affect Adam’s relationship with Evelyn but also with his two best friends, Phil and Jenny, an engaged couple.

“For the first time, students will be able to see something that very much relates to them and something they could see in a movie or television show,” said UNA student Brinna Brown, assistant director and stage manager. “This play is marketed directly toward them and is in a lot of ways a show that is completely about [students].”

Directed by UNA junior and theatre major Tim Spearing, “The Shape of Things” will feature digital projection from the UNA film and digital media program, as well as limited seating to ensure a more intimate theater setting. The Department of Music and Theatre has presented several smaller plays instead of one large production this spring to prepare for the final construction of the black box theater in 2012.

“This is a very unique opportunity for a student director to direct a full-length play, as you don’t get that at a lot of other schools,” said Dr. David Ruebhausen, associate professor of theatre. “When the black box theatre opens, we hope to do more student-directed performances.”

Admission to the play is $5 for students, faculty and staff and $10 for the general public. Tickets will be available at the door. For more information, contact the Department of Music and Theatre at 256-765-4516.

“The Shape of Things” cast includes:

Forrest Harlan, of Florence – Adam

Haley Prestridge, of Jasper – Evelyn

Max Raybon, of Tuscumbia – Phil

Harrison Chambliss, of Birmingham – Jenny

“The Shape of Things” production cast includes:

Tim Spearing, of Hazel Green – Director

Brinna Brown, of Florence – Assistant Director/Stage Manager

Brittany James, of Russellville – Costume Designer

Mission, Vision and History

happy studentsThe Mission of the School of Public Health is to create solutions for a healthier community by advancing public health knowledge through research, service, and the education of public health professionals.

Vision: Building on a Diverse Foundation

Vision of the School of Public Health: To be the team of choice for public health education, discovery, and service.

Background & History

From the beginning, the UNTHSC School of Public Health sought to provide critically needed public health education and research to the citizens of North Texas . Indeed, interest in developing program inPublic Health in Fort Worth sprang from the efforts of community leadersand public health officials who saw the need for a strong link betweenacademic health care and community practitioners in this region of theState. The hard work of these community leaders and university officialsculminated in July 1995 when the Texas Higher Education Coordinatingboard approved the institution’s request to offer a Master’s of PublicHealth Degree (M.P.H.) in collaboration with the University of NorthTexas in Denton . After several years of offering this degree, the Board of Regents authorized the University of North Texas Health ScienceCenter to submit a proposal to the Texas Higher Education CoordinatingBoard to create a School of Public Health and to request funds from theTexas Legislature to fund the school and its corresponding programs.

On December 1, 1997 the Association of Schools of Public Health(ASPH) accepted the University of North Texas Health Science Center Public Health Program as an affiliate member. ASPH is the only national organization representing the deans, faculty and students of the 31 schools of public health. Five years later, in June 2002, the School ofPublic Health was accredited by the Council on Education for PublicHealth (CEPH) for a full 5-year term. The School of Public Health is now one of only 37 accredited schools of this type in the US .

In the fifth year since gaining initial accreditation from CEPH, the School of Public Health has gradually grown in both numbers of students and amount of research dollars, while continuing to maintain strong and vital links with public health professionals and agencies in the community. Being a relatively new school, there is no deep legacy toguide future efforts, and so a roadmap for the future is essential. The Strategic Plan 2005-2010, then, represents a pivotal moment in the life of the School as it delineates a plan of action that is built upon the strengths and interests of the school’s primary stakeholders.

Strategic Planning Process

The plan sets out goals and objectives that were developed and refined by the faculty and staff of the school, along with the input from students and community partners through a 9-month strategic planning process. The process began through a serious of focus groups held with students and community partners. In all, 12 students and 18 community and research partners participated in the focus groups as away to provide the school with a valuable perspective on our placewithin both the service and research sectors of our north Texas region.The intent of the focus group participants was to engage in a SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, threats and opportunities) analysis of thes chool, which would be used as part of our environmental assessment leading up to the faculty and staff retreat. Faculty and staff were also asked to provide a SWOT analysis of the school, though this information was gathered via email and/or hard copy.

The SWOT analysis revealed a wide variety of issues and concerns for the school as it moves forward. In this context, we are concerned withstrengths and weaknesses that are internal to the school, and whichwould be addressed from that perspective. Some of the major strengths that were consistently identified by all of the focus group participants included excellent location and infrastructure, diversity (both faculty and students), strong links with the community, and reputation/accreditation, while the main weaknesses included lack of status and influence within the Health Science Center and University ofNorth Texas System, student communication skills, faculty teaching and scholarship, and underdeveloped research capabilities.

The focus groups also allowed consideration of opportunities and threats to the school, or factors which are external to the school and that must be recognized and considered in the context of the larger community or region. Some of the opportunities included meeting the expanding needs of Latino communities, addressing the demand for more public health training, and developing more partnerships with researchers and other community organizations in Dallas/Fort Worth. Some of the threats for the school included the lack of public awareness and support for public health, insufficient and uncertain state funding for the school, and competing public health and related types of educational programs.

Overall, then, the focus groups produced extremely valuable information for use in looking 5 to 10 years into the future of the School of Public Health. In studying the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats that were identified, the school has developed a strong basis upon which to prosper and grow, particularly as itrelates to diversity, physical infrastructure and community links. By focusing on these strengths and developing opportunities relating to higher quality education, training and research, the perceived weaknesses and threats should begin to dissipate and lessen over time.

Following the work of these focus groups, the strategic planning process peaked with a day-long retreat in April of 2005 that included both faculty and staff. The main purpose of the retreat was to bring the faculty and staff together to discuss the SWOT analysis and then to,hopefully, begin a discussion around those strategic objectives that they felt should be given the greatest priority in the next 5 to 10 years. To be effective, the SPH leadership felt that this strategic plan must spring from those who will be driving the implementation of the plan, which would include students, community partners, local public health officials, staff and faculty.

Strategic Objectives and Goals

The strategic plan focuses primarily on the areas of research and education, though implicit in the plan’s strategic objectives are the needs and responsibilities of the School as they relate to service in the community, region and state. These strategic objectives are also linked to our longstanding mission statements. First, the School continues to address its service mission to Develop[ing] academic and community partnerships through these new initiatives and our existing programs. Education programs continue to reach out to the community through the public health practice and residency requirements for masters and doctoral students, respectively. Research efforts by faculty also integrate the community’s needs in several high profile projects, including the DREAMS (Diabetes Research, Education and Metabolic Studies) and Promotoras (i.e., lay persons in the community who provide health education and promotion) projects that focus on the health needs, disparities and risk factors of Hispanic persons in the Fort Worth community. Our commitment to service in the community is also seen in our working with public health professionals by including them in our strategic planning focus groups and faculty recruitment efforts. These formal, and sometimes informal, connections to our public health counterparts in the community often lead to additional service opportunities as well.

The school’s primary educational objective is to provide masters and doctoral level degrees and education in public health, and by making the courses accessible to working professionals. In addition, both the masters and doctoral curricula require that students engage in public health practice experience outside of the academic setting in order to provide them actual work experience related to their education. The education objectives also seek to continue our committed service to the state and community by developing high quality education programs that assist public health professionals in attaining critical core competencies in public health. This role of providing continuing and professional education to the public health practitioners in our local, regional and state community is an important one and will only be strengthened through a certificate program that can make public health education and training more accessible. The education objective fully supports our mission of Preparing its graduates to effectively contribute to the practice of public health and Providing accessible educational programs , and to a lesser extent Developing academic and community partnerships.

The school’s primary research objective is to engage in high quality research related to pressing public health concerns, be it locally, statewide, nationally or internationally. One longstanding program to support that objective is the school’s salary return policy that allows faculty to augment their salary by 1/3 of the amount of any contract or grant they receive. In most other schools and universities, the full amount of any grant is used to replace a base amount of often state funding. These new strategic objectives related to research seek to further develop the capabilities of faculty, students (and public health practitioners) to generate research and scholarship that enhances the knowledge base in each of the public health disciplines, thereby improving the public’s health. In the first research objectives, there will be an effort made to determine whether there are other ways to support and develop the research enterprise of the school, in addition to the existing salary return policy. The second new research objective represents a possible project around which all of the school’s faculty may join to further public health research. As an added bonus, because of the potential value of the research capability, other researchers in the region may be encouraged to collaborate, particularly around local, community health issues. This in turn may lead to further service in the community through specific, targeted research pertaining to local needs.

Ongoing Development and Evaluation

The next phase in this strategic planning process will be to translate these strategic objectives and goals into active tactics and actions. Subcommittees within the school have already begun to craft these action plans, starting with the Planning & Evaluation Committee and eventually to include those students and community partners who participated in the focus groups earlier in this process. As with any strategic plan, this is meant to be a fluid and ongoing process, and objectives and goals as stated previously will be modified as the environment (both internal and external) changes and evolves.

Evaluation of these objectives and goals will take place in the context of our annual reporting requirements through the targets and indicators that will be developed as part of each action plan. In addition, the Planning & Evaluation Committee has recommended that an annual retreat’ or similar type of convening for the faculty and staff be held every spring to discuss and consider the strategic objectives and overall direction of the school during the previous year. It is important for this type of reflection to ensure that there is ongoing and committed support for the strategic plan, and then to accommodate any adjustments or revisions that would need to be made.

Research Bio

Transmembrane proteins carry out critical functions in transporting ions and metabolites in an out of cells and organelles, in transducing extracellular signals into intracellular responses, in cell-cell recognition, and in catalyzing a variety of enzymatic reactions. They also constitute 20-30% of the protein coding potential of most genomes. However, the structures and molecular mechanisms of the function of membrane proteins remain much more poorly characterized than is the case for most soluble proteins. The Dumont laboratory focuses on understanding mechanisms of membrane protein function at the molecular level.

Truck strikes fire hydrant, breaks downtown Yoakum water main (video)

By ErinPradia
May 17, 2012 at 12:17 a.m.

More than three blocks of downtown Yoakum have been out of water since about 6:30 a.m. Thursday when an 18-wheeler struck a fire hydrant  which damaged the water main under the street.

Much of downtown Yoakum spent Thursday without water after a truck struck a fire hydrant Thursday morning.

As of 9 p.m. Thursday, three city blocks were without water, City Manager Kevin Coleman said.

He did not know how much longer the repairs would take.

The problem started between 6:30 and 7 a.m. when an 18-wheeler turned the corner off Lott Street onto Nelson Street and struck a fire hydrant. That cracked the water main under the street. It left a two-block area without water, Coleman said.

At least two restaurants, a flower shop, beauty salons, the post office and the fire department were among the businesses left without water.

Stress fractures in the pipes complicated the repair process, causing more leaks as city workers repaired the initial damage, he said.

The most recent leak was off Front Street.

list-style: square; rendering too big only in Internet Explorer

7:48 pm on Feb 27, 2013 (gmt 0)

ul { list-style: square; }

is rendering way too big in Internet Explorer (I am only using 9, dont know about the rest). Even though it does not look very good, I would not worry about that, but I need to have a list of about 200 items in an iframe, and the squares are extending its height by about 100px.

I know I can get around this one by replacing the squares with a picture in css, but I would like to see if there is no easier way to fix it in the code (only for the IE9).

Thank you.

Their exact rendering depends on the user agent.

This is CSS-speak for "You are SOL."

Would you believe this is really a font question? MSIE has historically been lousy at font substitution, and that's what is going on here. Not all fonts contain the "square" glyph (there are about half a dozen of them and I don't know which, if any, is specified for list markers) so it's down to the browser to find one. Unfortunately, solid black squares range widely in size from one font to the next.

I can think of one workaround off the top of my head-- I've used it to get oversized numbers without resorting to images-- but it's clunky so I'll wait for someone else to suggest a better approach.

Inside the Lines

California's Proposition 77 has incumbents running scared.

12:00 AM, Oct 21, 2005 • By BILL WHALEN
Widget tooltip
Single Page Print Larger Text Smaller Text Alerts

ON SEPTEMBER 12, 2001, the day after the deadliest attack ever perpetrated on American soil, job security--not homeland security--was foremost on the minds of California lawmakers. State senators in Sacramento that day passed a redistricting bill purposely designed to protect both parties' incumbents. The state Assembly followed suit the next day. Two weeks later, then-Gov. Gray Davis signed the measure into law. Because it was drafted as "urgency" legislation, the new redistricting plan was immune from a referendum challenge that could have put the matter before the state's Supreme Court.

As it turned out, the legislature accomplished its mission. California was home to 153 congressional and legislative races last November; not a single one changed party hands. Compare that to the eight-year stretch from 1992 to 2000, when 10 of California's congressional districts, 6 state Senate and 14 Assembly districts changed parties at least once, with 13 of the districts turning over twice in those 5 elections.

Why did both parties sign off on the down-and-dirty deal? Democrats feared a repeat of the previous decade, when an impasse with then-Gov. Pete Wilson led to a court-appointed panel redrawing the map. Republicans were acting as a proxy of the Bush White House, which wanted a guaranteed minimum of 19 GOP congressmen from California, thus preserving Republican control of the House.

REDISTRICTING IS ONCE AGAIN in California's spotlight, as voters in next month's special election will decide the fate of Proposition 77. Sequentially the last of the four initiatives that constitute Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's reform slate, Prop. 77 would strip the legislature of its redistricting powers. Instead, the process would go as follows:

(1) Districts would be drawn up by a three-member panel of retired judges chosen from a pool of 24 nominated by the state's non-partisan Judicial Council.

(2) Districts would have to be compact and contiguous (that means an end to geographic anomalies such as California's 23rd Congressional District, the so-called "ribbon of shame" that runs 200 miles along the California coast, from Monterey to Santa Barbara, but on average is no more than 5 miles wide--and in some places is just a football-field's width).

(3) Whatever plan that's devised by the ex-judges could go in effect only with voter approval.

(4) Instead of waiting for the next census and the 2011 election, California's districts would be redrawn in time for November 2006.

If not for pyrotechnics of Schwarzenegger's high-stakes shootout with the unions, Prop. 77 might shine on its own as a classic California political food-fight. The "yes" side, which at last report had only $3.2 million in the bank, is headed up by Silicon Valley software magnate Steve Poizner, who last year lost as a Republican candidate in a Democratic-gerrymandered Assembly district. Theoretically, turning over control of Prop. 77 to Poizner frees up Schwarzenegger to focus his resources on his three other initiatives. But in reality, "Yes on 77" is still at Team Arnold's mercy, especially in terms of how much time the Governator gives to the cause and whether pro-reform voters go for the entire Arnold slate en masse.

(Full disclosure: I've been a paid consultant for Poizner, both on Prop. 77 and his Assembly run in 2004).

As for the "no" side, the money trail begins with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, who's challenged her fellow House Democrats to chip in $100,000 apiece to kill the measure. Hollywood producer Stephen Bing, whose claims to fame are dating famous actresses (he fathered a child with Elizabeth Hurley) and donating to leftist causes ($16 million to Democratic causes in the last election cycle), has anted up $4.25 million. Also weighing in with six-figure donations: trial lawyers, the AFSCME public-employee union, and Haim Saban, the billionaire producer of the Might Morphin' Power Rangers. Further help comes in the form of out-of-state surrogates, including Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean, who stumped the Bay Areas last week. Although Dean was a proponent of nonpartisan redistricting during his 2004 presidential run, he didn't skip the chance to trash the GOP as "the greatest propaganda machine since Vladimir Lenin."

Dean's not the only politician to find himself in an unusual place thanks to redistricting reform. Take the example of Rep. John Doolittle, a conservative Republican who thinks House Republicans will lose three seats if Prop. 77 passes. Doolittle sees it as part of a vast left-wing conspiracy along the Sunbelt and Rustbelt to redraw lines and reinstate a Democratic House majority.

Transcript of the President's answer to Harry Smith's question on Iran, CBS, 6-19-09

Office of the Press Secretary
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE                                                             June 19, 2009

Map Room
Q    Let's move on to the news of the day.  The Ayatollah Khamenei gave his speech today, gave his sermon.  He said that the election in Iran was, in fact, legitimate.  He said, "The street demonstrations are unacceptable."  Do you have a message for those people in the street?
THE PRESIDENT:  I absolutely do.  First of all, let's understand that this notion that somehow these hundreds of thousands of people who are pouring into the streets in Iran are somehow responding to the West or the United States, that's an old distraction that I think has been trotted out periodically.  And that's just not going to fly.
What you're seeing in Iran are hundreds of thousands of people who believe their voices were not heard and who are peacefully protesting and seeking justice.  And the world is watching.  And we stand behind those who are seeking justice in a peaceful way.  Already we've seen violence out there.  I've said this throughout the week, I want to repeat it, that we stand with those who would look to peaceful resolution of conflict and we believe that the voices of people have to be heard, that that's a universal value that the American people stand for and this administration stands for.  And I'm very concerned, based on some of the tenor and tone of the statements that have been made, that the government of Iran recognize that the world is watching.  And how they approach and deal with people who are -- through peaceful means -- trying to be heard will I think send a pretty clear signal to the international community about what Iran is and is not.
 But the last point I want to make on this -- this is not an issue of the United States or the West versus Iran; this is an issue of the Iranian people.  The fact that they are on the streets, under pretty severe duress, at great risk to themselves, is a sign that there's something in that society that wants to open up.  And, you know, we respect Iran's sovereignty and we respect the fact that ultimately the Iranian people have to make these decisions.
But I hope that the world understands that this is not something that has to do with the outside world; this has to do with what's happening in Iran.  And I think ultimately the Iranian people will obtain justice.
Q    People in this country say you haven't said enough, that you haven't been forceful enough in your support for those people on the street -- to which you say?
THE PRESIDENT:  To which I say, the last thing that I want to do is to have the United States be a foil for those forces inside Iran who would love nothing better than to make this an argument about the United States.  That's what they do.  That's what we're already seeing.  We shouldn't be playing into that.  There should be no distractions from the fact that the Iranian people are seeking to let their voices be heard.
What we can do is bear witness and say to the world that the incredible demonstrations that we've seen is a testimony to I think what Dr. King called the "arc of the moral universal."  It's long but it bends towards justice.

Title: U.S.-South Korea Beef Dispute: Negotiations and Status

CRS report number: RL34528

Author(s): Remy Jurenas, Resources, Science, and Industry Division; Mark E. Manyin, Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division

Date: November 25, 2008

Many U.S. policy makers view the resumption of all U.S. beef exports to South Korea - the third-largest U.S. beef export market in 2003 - as essential, but not necessarily all that is required, before the U.S. Congress would consider legislation to implement the Korean-U.S. Free Trade Agreement (KORUS FTA). To facilitate this, the U.S. and Korean governments agreed in mid-April 2008 on the rules that Korea will apply to U.S. beef imports to ensure that shipments meet Korean human health standards. South Korea's rationale was to improve prospects for the Bush Administration deciding to send the KORUS FTA to Congress before year-end 2008. The White House had for some time signaled that Korea had to reopen its market to U.S. beef - a step necessary to secure the votes of Members of Congress who represent cattle production and beef processing states and whose support for the KORUS FTA is viewed as critical.

I posted yesterday about how utterly at sea I feel doing this dating thing in mid-life. Not only am I woefully unprepared, but I'm not necessarily looking for what I would have been when I was younger. In some ways, that's good, but in other ways, it makes for a whole new set of parameters.

For instance, it's a good thing that I'm older now because the "deal breakers" have changed a bit. He doesn't want to have babies? Fine. My baby factory is officially closed. As long as he's cool with the kids I come with (after all, we are a package deal), I think we're OK. He doesn't care about music or theatre? Well, that's a bit of a bummer because I do, but certainly not a deal breaker anymore. As long as he has things that he does care about and he's not sitting on a couch complaining of boredom with a TV remote in his hand all the time, I can indulge other hobbies. Maybe I'll learn something. I'm a lot more open-minded and "live and let live" than I ever was in my younger days. The years have brought me perspective, and that's a powerful thing.

Advertisement - Continue Reading Below

On the other hand, the years have brought me a distinct lack of patience for people wasting my time. Lie to me about your marital status or employment status? Next. Make it clear that I'm interesting for an evening (if you know what I mean) and you'll get back to me later if you want more? Next. Treat the waiter rudely or make bigoted jokes or remarks? Next. I can't spend valuable time on that kind of nonsense.

So I've got a great, vague idea of what kind of guy I want or don't want, but that's the problem. It's really, really vague. Mostly, it's because I'm not sure what I want out of a relationship right now. I've obviously been led to the wrong kind of guy in the past, and I don't know that I have the best "picker" if you know what I mean.

Did you ever feel like you were utterly unqualified to figure out your best match?

What do you think?

What does it do?

The DT10RF Optimising Digistat controls the times and temperature of your heating and hot water. The optimiser function calculates the time the boiler needs to start in order to reach the correct temperature at your programmed times.

  • A governess cart is a small two-wheeled horse-drawn cart. Their distinguishing feature is a small tub body, with two opposed inward-facing seats. They could seat four, although there was little room for four large adults. The driver sat sideways on one of these seats. The centre rear of the body was lowered, or else had a small hinged door, and there was a step beneath. The wheels were of moderate size, always fitted with mud guards, and usually carried on elliptical springs. The axle was either straight or dropped, giving a low, stable, centre of gravity.

Drake Cancels Philadelphia Show on Second Night of Tour

Drake Cancels Philadelphia Show on Second Night of TourDrake Cancels Philadelphia Show on Second Night of Tour

Drake canceled his concert in Philadelphia last night, pulling the plug on the date an hour after the show was scheduled to start. reports that fans had already entered the Wells Fargo Center when they were notified that Drake would not be performing that night.

A spokesperson for the venue issued a statement explaining the last-minute change: "Due to the elaborate nature of tonight's show and an unexpected technical issue, Drake's 'Would You Like A Tour' concert at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia has been postponed until Wednesday, December 18th." The tickets for Saturday's performance will be honored for the new date.

'Nothing Was the Same' and 25 More Must-Hear Albums This Fall

The ill-fated show in Philadelphia was only the second stop on Drake's Would You Like A Tour, with the opener taking place across Pennsylvania in Pittsburgh just the night before. But it had already been a dramatic couple of weeks for the tour, with Drake reportedly firing supporting act Future over a lukewarm assessment the rapper gave to Billboard regarding Drake's new album, Nothing Was the Same. Future had been quoted as saying "Drake made an album that is full of hits, but it doesn't grab you. They're not possessive; they don't make you feel the way I do."

Future's management insisted that the quotes were meant to be off the record and had been taken out of context. According to the New York Post, Drake later invited Future to return to the tour for less money than the $40,000-per-gig originally offered; Future declined and threatened to sue Drake for about $1.5 million in lost wages.

All seemed to be back on track by Wednesday, when Future confirmed to Rolling Stone that he had settled his disagreement with Drake and would indeed be joining the tour.

Saturday's cancellation seems to have taken fellow opener Miguel by surprise: at 8:35 last night, he tweeted, "Man, just found out, unfortunately tonight's show in Philly is cancelled. Can't wait to find out the rescheduled date and come back and rock." The crooner ended up playing a surprise make-up set with his band at another Philadelphia location.

The next scheduled date on the tour is October 21st in Montreal.

Time Warner Cable CEO Warns He’ll Drop Pricey But Low-Rated Channels: UBS

Time Warner Cable Considers Axing Additional Channels After Dropping OvationTime Warner Cable Considers Axing Additional Channels After Dropping Ovation

Time Warner Cable‘s Glenn Britt took a tougher stance on this subject than I’ve heard in a while in his presentation this morning at the UBS Global Media and Communications Conference in New York. “We’re going to take a hard look at each service and those services that cost too much relative to the viewership, we’re going to drop them,” he says. He adds that “if you have a network that has hashmark ratings and isn’t going anywhere, we’re going to have a different conversation” in 2013 than before. The problem, he says, is that many cable network owners “almost feel like it’s a birthright” for their channels to be included in the basic pay TV bundle. When the channels don’t perform, owners say “next year I’ll work harder and spend more money on programming and it’ll be good.” But Time Warner Cable, along with other pay TV distributors, can no longer pass those costs along to subscribers. With the economy “bouncing along the bottom,” Britt says, “the consumer is telling us that we can’t afford these prices anymore.” His company has been squeezed: Since 2008 his programming costs have risen 30% while his video prices have gone up 15%, exceeding the 10% rise in the Consumer Price Index. Network owners have an interest in maintaining the current system of bundling channels because “the entertainment business is one of the riskiest businesses on the planet.” If consumers were allowed to just pay for the channels they want, television’s business model would look “a lot more like Broadway theaters.”

In response to a question, Britt denied that his company more than makes up for the programming costs with the huge profits it collects from its broadband service. “It is a wrong impression to say that broadband is obscenely profitable and video isn’t….A pretty high percentage of our capital spending goes to broadband.” Early this year Time Warner Cable battled the MSG Network regional sports channel over high costs, but had to back down when Jeremy Lin — then of the New York Knicks — began a sensational scoring run.

  • Cream of YouTube: Steve's favourite creative short films Play all

    There are so many fine videos that aren't on You Tube at all (think of Vimeo, for instance). But here are a few that are to hand, and that have inspired me or given me joy - not excerpts, not documentaries or cute kittens or hideous kiddies falling off their bikes, but creative videos in their own right.

    The creative short film is just as much a specialism, a discipline and an art form as the short story. Just as Katherine Mansfield's "Bliss" is not "War and Peace" after a thousand Reader's Digest edits, so a short film is not "Gone with the Wind" on a bargain budget or on film stock that will run out after two minutes. Short film needs to be a way of making a beguiling or moving or trenchant point that could not be made so well, any other way.

    Look, browse, have fun and learn - as I have done. I won't even try to single out favourites; but if you watch SEBASTIAN'S VOODOO, you'll see what I mean.

Note: Resources on the International Summit on the Teaching Profession are subject to change. Please check back for the most up-to-date information.

The U.S. Department of Education together with the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), Education International (EI) and U.S.-based organizations—National Education Association (NEA), the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO), Asia Society, and WNET hosted the first International Summit on the Teaching Profession March 16-17, 2011, in New York. The summit was the first of its kind, designed to engage countries in a discussion about promising practices for recruiting, preparing, developing, supporting, retaining, evaluating, and compensating world-class teachers.

The summit assembled education ministers, national union leaders and accomplished teachers from countries with high performing and rapidly improving educational systems (based on the results of PISA 2009). In addition to the United States, the invited countries and regions were Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, People's Republic of China, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Iceland, Indonesia, Ireland, Japan, Republic of Korea, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Singapore, Slovenia, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.

Each country's delegation included the education minister, the leader(s) of the one or two largest national teacher union(s), and up to two additional teacher leaders. U.S. state and national education leaders—chief state school officers, state union presidents, teachers of the year, and heads of the major education associations—were also invited to listen and to participate in question-and-answer sessions.

Organizers, led by the Asia Society, collaborated to produce a publication on key lessons, Improving Teacher Quality Around the World.

The 2012 International Summit on the Teaching Profession will be held March 14-15, in New York.
