'Jhum Cultivation' is an important practice in Mizoram. It includes slashing down the jungles, burning the leaves and cultivating the lands. All the major agricultural activities and festivals in Mizoram rotate around the operations of Jhum.
The people of Mizoram have still kept their traditional heritage alive. The conventional customs remain intact till date. An extraordinary tribal flavor accompanies the celebration of fairs and festivals in Mizoram. Since Christianity forms the major part of the population, the New Year's and Christmas are the most important celebrations in Mizoram. Several traditional festivals also form a part of the major celebrations.
Kut are the traditional festivals of Mizoram. Some of those important ones celebrated with great pomp and show are namely:
Chapchar Kut
Chapchar Kut is one of the most important spring festival. After the clearing of the forests for jhum cultivation, this festival is celebrated with great fervor by the people of Mizoram. Irrespective of the age, both young and old participate in the festivities with equal enthusiasm. People dressed in bright costumes with attractive head gears sing, dance and make merry. Men and women perform folk dances and sing several traditional songs as well followed by beats of drums and cymbals. It is normally celebrated during the first week of March every year
Mim Kut
Mim Kut is celebrated after the harvest of the maize crop is over. For this very reason, Mim Kut is also called the Maize Festival. It is celebrated generally during the month of August or September. Singing, dancing, drinking of rice-beer and merry-making are the common features of this festival.
Mim Kut is a Love-Live for Life Festival held in Mizoram. Mim Kut turns out to be a vibrant and colorful fiesta that is celebrated with a lot of zeal and enthusiasm. Mim Kut is a Maize Festival, but a ceremony of joys that adds a New Feather to the Stunning Coronet of Fiestas in Mizoram.
Mim Kut offers that the devotees or people pay tribute to the dead souls in a form of a visit to them and in form of wine that is naturally made from rice at all homes. Other offerings include fresh vegetables, maize, bread made from maize and handmade symbolic jewelry.
The dead souls are also worshiped by the villagers. The Mim Kut festival like most festivals includes, tradition singing, dancing, playing musical instruments and proud display of culture.
Pawl Kut
Pawl Kut is the greatest of all the festivals celebrated in the state of Mizoram. Once all the harvests are over, this Harvest Festival is celebrated with great fun. The festival is usually celebrated either in the month of December or January.
Lyuva Khutla
Lyuva Khutla (festival) is celebrated after completion of arduous jhumming task (slash and burn). It is celebrated as thanksgiving to the almighty for his helps and blessings.
Lyuva Khutla, the most important and biggest cultural as well as thanksgiving festival of the Mara tribes of Mizoram, was celebrated in southern Mizoram's Siaha and Tipa .
Anthurium Festival
The Anthurium Festival is held to promote farmers, flowers and horticulture in Mizoram.
The festival witnesses many visitors from across the nation and wide world. Mizoram's Chief Minister also is present as Chief Guest, every year on this occasion.
The Anthurium flower is one of the most expensive flowers cultivated in India. The Tourism Department of the State Government does best to organize it on the foothills of the Mystic Reiek Mountain to promote the flower's cultivation and the farmers in Mizoram.
The tourist take a chance to see the best of decked up and decorated flowers with different varieties and arrangements.
Anthurium sell for around Rs 8,00 to 1,000 per plant in metropolitan cities. In Mizoram, Anthurium varieties are widely used in ceremonies ranging from birthdays, weddings and funeral services. This is a must to see as it offers ideas and thoughts for even the best of ideas.
Christmas Festival
Christmas is a vital festival in Mizoram and it's the most busy year along with the best holidays. While the Christmas Festival is on.
You'll see that there's no shortage of Christmas markets, holiday shopping and festive entertainment during Mizoram's Christmas Season.
Prayers and worship services were held at different churches across The State on Christmas Eve to celebrate the Birth of Jesus Christ.
Christmas carols and free gospel street concerts mark the Christmas Eve programme, while Mass Hymns of Christmas in traditional tunes continue till 12 'O' clock at night.
Khuado Kut
Khuado Kut (festival) is celebrated by the Paite community . It is a festival of symbolic expression of thanksgiving to the Almighty for having blessed and given a bountiful harvest.
Hlukhla Kut
The Hlukhla Kut is a festival of Lai people. It is celebrated during March after completion of their most arduous task of jhum operation i.e., jungle-clearing (clearing of the remnants of burning). It is a spring festival celebrated with great favour and gaiety.
Today, the festival is observed in the last part of February or the early part of March when the trees and bamboos felled for jhum are left to dry and the shifting cultivators have time to relax and enjoy.

Chris Tarrant has admitted drink driving and we wouldn't ordinarily bother you with it but it's prompted lots of jokes of which this is the very best.
I hope that when Chris Tarrant gets sentenced for drink driving the judge sentences him to 40 hours community service, tears up the paper while saying 'but we don't want to give you that', and then sends him to prison.
And honourable mentions to this lot.
Chris Tarrant has been banned for drink driving. Looks like he'll have to phone a friend if he needs a lift.
*incredibly long pause* "Is that your final answer?"
It's a good job Chris Tarrant likes travelling by train!
Wife sat in the back.
Never mind 'Phone a Friend' Chris Tarrant should have phoned a taxi.

\section{Introduction}
\label{sec:intro}
Within the Standard Model, all flavor structure (before electroweak
symmetry breaking) resides in the Yukawa coupling matrices. However,
not all of their parameters are physical. For instance,
$${\cal L}_\mathrm{SM} \supset - \,H \,\bar q_{Li}\, Y^D_{ij}\, d_{Rj} +
         \frac{1}{3} \, g \,\bar d_{Ri} \,B \!\!\!\! /  \,d_{Ri},
\qquad Y^{D} = U_{L}^{D} \hat Y^{D} U_{D} ,
$$
where the hat here and below denotes a diagonal matrix,
and the field redefinition $d_{Ri} \equiv U^\dagger_{Dij}\, d'_{Rj}$
eliminates $U_{D}$ without affecting any other term in the Lagrangian,
leaving it unphysical.

In the MSSM additional flavor structure appears in the soft-breaking
terms, for instance,
$$
{\cal L}_{\mbox{\small soft}} \supset
- {\tilde d}_R^\dagger m^{2}_{{\tilde d}_{R}} {\tilde d}_R,
\qquad  m^{2}_{{\tilde d}_{R}} = \tilde U \hat m^{2}_{{\tilde d}_{R}} {\tilde U}^{\dagger} .
$$
As a consequence, the quark-squark-gluino vertex $\bar d_{Ri} {\tilde d}_{Rj} {\tilde g}$
acquires a flavor-changing structure $(U_D\, {\tilde U})_{ij}$.
To avoid the associated large flavor-changing neutral currents (FCNC), it is common to
consider flavor-universal soft-breaking
terms, as in minimal supergravity (mSUGRA). While the
universality in mSUGRA only holds at a high (Planck or GUT) scale,
for the right-handed down-type squark masses the radiative corrections are
small if $\tan \beta$ is not too large, as there are no contributions due to
the large top Yukawa coupling. The same is true of the slepton masses.

Within SUSY GUTs, quarks and leptons are unified into irreducible symmetry
multiplets.
Radiative corrections due to $y_t$ above
the GUT scale then affect full GUT multiplets.
This can generate mass differences
and flavor violation in
the down-type-squark
and the slepton mass matrices,
and the mixing angles contained in $U_D \,{\tilde U}$  can be rendered observable.\cite{BarbieriSUSYGUT}

Furthermore, hadronic and leptonic flavor structures are linked in GUTs.
The presence of large atmospheric and solar mixing angles
in the leptonic sector raises the question whether they can manifest themselves in the hadronic sector.
Chang, Masiero, and Murayama (CMM) have proposed an $SO(10)$ model in which the
large $\nu_\mu$--$\nu_\tau$ mixing angle can affect transitions
between right-handed $b$ and $s$ quarks.\cite{cmm}

\section{Renormalization and particle spectrum in the CMM model}
The $SO(10)$-symmetric superpotential has the form~\cite{cmm}
\begin{equation}
W_{10} = \frac{1}{2} \mathbf{16}^T Y^U \mathbf{16} \, \mathbf{10}_\mathbf{H}
  \, + \,
   \frac{1}{{M_{\mbox{\rm \scriptsize Pl}}}} \frac{1}{2} \mathbf{16}^T \tilde{Y}^D  \mathbf{16}
     \, \mathbf{10_H^\prime} \mathbf{45_H}
 + \frac{1}{{M_{\mbox{\rm \scriptsize Pl}}}} \frac{1}{2}  \mathbf{16}^T Y^M \mathbf{16}
   \, \mathbf{\ov{16}_H} \mathbf{\ov{16}_H}. \label{w10}
\end{equation}
Here the vector $\mathbf{16}$ in generation space comprises the three
generations of matter, and $Y^U$ is a symmetric
$3\times 3$ matrix containing the large top Yukawa
coupling. The Higgs fields $\mathbf{10_H}$ and $\mathbf{10'_H}$
contain the MSSM Higgses $H_u$ and $H_d$, respectively.
The dimension-5 terms, suppressed by the Planck mass ${M_{\mbox{\rm \scriptsize Pl}}}$,
involve further Higgs fields  $\mathbf{45_H}$ and $\mathbf{\ov{16}_H}$
acquiring VEVs $v_{45}$ and $v_{\ov{16}}$ of order the scale
${M_{10}}$, where $SO(10)$ is broken to $SU(5)$.
Below the GUT scale ${M_{\mbox{\rm \scriptsize GUT}}}$, there are the usual four Yukawa matrices of the
MSSM (including right-handed neutrinos), with
$Y^D\propto \tilde Y^D \frac{v_{45}}{{M_{\mbox{\rm \scriptsize Pl}}}} \approx {Y^E}^T$
and $Y^U \approx Y^\nu$.
Note also that generically $\tan\beta = {\cal O}({M_{10}}/{M_{\mbox{\rm \scriptsize Pl}}})$.
The last term in
Eq.~\ref{w10} generates small seesaw neutrino masses.
Flavor symmetries are then invoked which
render $Y^U$ and $Y^M$ simultaneously diagonal. This defines the
$(U)$-basis. In this basis the remaining Yukawa matrix
$Y^D \approx {Y^E}^T$, giving mass to down-type
quarks and charged leptons, contains all flavor mixing:
\begin{equation}             \label{eq:yukd}
        Y^D = V_{\rm CKM}^*\,\left(\matrix{y_d \cr & y_s \cr && y_b}\right)\,
                U_{\rm PMNS}.
\end{equation}
Here $V_{\rm CKM}$ and $U_{\rm PMNS}$
are the quark and leptonic mixing matrices and
certain diagonal phase matrices have been omitted. We drop the subscript
on $U_{\rm PMNS}$ below.

The soft SUSY-breaking terms are assumed universal near the Planck
scale.
The only large Yukawa coupling $y_t$ now renormalizes the $SO(10)$ sfermion
mass matrix, keeping it diagonal in the $(U)$-basis
but suppressing the masses of the third generation.
At the weak scale, the right-handed down-type squark and the left-handed
slepton mass matrices thus take the form
$$
 m^{2,(U)}_{{\tilde d}_{R}} =
\left( \matrix{ m^2_{{\tilde d}_{R1}} & 0 & 0 \cr
0 & m^2_{{\tilde d}_{R1}} & 0 \cr
0 & 0 &
m^2_{{\tilde d}_{R1}} - \Delta_{\tilde d} } \right),
\qquad
  m^{2,(U)}_{{\tilde l}} =
\left( \matrix{ m^2_{{\tilde l}_1} & 0 & 0 \cr
0 & m^2_{{\tilde l}_1} & 0 \cr
0 & 0 &
m^2_{{\tilde l}_1} - \Delta_{\tilde l} } \right) .
$$
This nonuniversal structure induces flavor-changing couplings
once the charged-lepton and down-type-quark
Yukawa matrices are diagonalized, as discussed
in the introduction.
From Eq.~\ref{eq:yukd} and the GUT relation $Y^D \approx {Y^E}^T$,
it follows that the PMNS mixing matrix $U$ governs
the coupling of right-handed down-type squarks to gluinos and quarks as well as
that of left-handed sleptons to charginos and neutralinos and leptons.
In particular, the large atmospheric mixing angle will appear in the mixing of
${\tilde b}_R$ and ${\tilde s}_R$.
Given the apparent lack of Yukawa
unification for the first two generations, which due to their smallness are
more sensitive to higher-dimensional operators,\cite{yukunif} it may not be justified to
expect a complete correspondence of leptonic and hadronic mixing angles.
Imposing (approximate) Yukawa unification only for the third
generation is sufficient to obtain
$
        |{U_D}_{23}| \approx |{U_D}_{33}| \approx |U_{\mu 3}|
        \approx |U_{\tau 3}| \approx 1/\sqrt{2},
$
suggesting large FCNC involving second-to-third-generation
transitions. On the other hand, $|{U_D}_{13}| \approx |U_{e3}|$
is unknown and consistent with zero, so (for nearly degenerate
first two generations of sparticles) no large effects occur in
$1 \to 2$ and $1 \to 3$ transitions. (For instance, the $B_d\!-\!\ov{B}{}_d\,$\ mixing\
phase remains $2 \beta$,
which ensures consistency with the standard CKM fit.)
For this reason, the
phenomenological analysis below is restricted to $2 \to 3$ processes.

Besides $\tan\beta$, we choose as low-energy input parameters
the approximately universal first-generation squark mass $m_{\tilde q}$,
the gluino mass $m_{\tilde g}$, and a down-squark $A$-parameter
$a_d \equiv A^{(U)}_{D11}/y_d$.
We use the MSSM and GUT RGEs to relate them
to the Planck-scale parameters $m_0$, $a_0$,
and $m_{1/2}$. The low-energy quantities
$\Delta_{\tilde d}$ and $\Delta_{\tilde l}$ then are calculable functions of our
low-energy inputs, with the biggest contributions coming from the running
above ${M_{10}}$. As a further input we have the (supersymmetric)
$\mu$-parameter, which we take as a free low-energy input.

A renormalization-group study of the top Yukawa coupling
shows that predictivity of the model
requires $y_t$ to remain below a certain value, which translates
to a lower bound on $\tan \beta {\,\stackrel{>}{\sim}\,} 3$, depending on the top mass
and (mildly) on supersymmetric parameters.\cite{jntalks}
The largest effects occur at this ``critical'' value. We take
${m_t^{\mbox{\rm \scriptsize pole}}}=178 \ensuremath{\,\mbox{GeV}}$ and set $\tan\beta$ to its critical value in the phenomenological analysis below.

\section{$B_s\!-\!\ov{B}{}_s\,$\ mixing}
The dominant new contributions to $B_s\!-\!\ov{B}{}_s\,$\ mixing\ in the CMM model are ${\cal O}(\alpha_s^2)$
corrections from one-loop box
diagrams with gluinos and squarks. One obtains the mixing amplitude~\cite{jntalks}
\begin{equation}
 M_{12} = \frac{G_F^2\, M_W^2 }{32  \pi^2 \, M_{B_s}} \, \lambda_t^2
        \,
          \left( C_L + C_R \right) \bra{B_s} O_L
        \ket{\ov{B}_s} . \label{eq:m12}
\end{equation}
Here $ \bra{B_s} O_L \ket{\ov{B}_s}$
is the hadronic matrix element of the Standard Model effective operator
$O_L = \bar s_L \gamma_{\mu} b_L \; \bar s_L \gamma^{\mu} b_L$ and
$C_L$ is due to Standard Model $W\!-t\!$ exchange. The only new operator generated is
the parity reflection of $O_L$, with the Wilson coefficient
\begin{equation}
        C_R =
        \frac{\Lambda_3^2}{\lambda_t^2}
        \frac{8 \pi^2 \alpha_s^2 (m_{\tilde g}) }{G_F^2 M_W^2 m_{\tilde g}^2 }
        \left[ \frac{\alpha_s(m_{\tilde g})}{\alpha_s(m_b)}\right]^{6/23}
        S^{({\tilde g})}  \label{eq:CR}
\end{equation}
and the same matrix element as $O_L$.
$\lambda_t= V_{ts}^* V_{tb}$ and
$
        |\Lambda_3| = |U_{\mu 3}| |U_{\tau 3}| \approx \frac{1}{2}
$
denote the relevant flavor-mixing parameters in the Standard Model and the
CMM model, and $S^{({\tilde g})}$ is a dimensionless function of the
squark and gluino masses. Note the enhancement of $C_R$ due
to the large atmospheric mixing and the large $\alpha_s$.
The neutral $B_s$-meson mass difference is given
by $\Delta M_{B_s} = 2 | M_{12} |$,
while the phase of $M_{12}$ is responsible for mixing-induced CP
violation. Fig.~\ref{fig:bb} (left) shows a contour plot of the modulus
of the new physics contribution normalized to the Standard Model prediction in
the $(m_{\tilde q},a_d)$ plane for $m_{\tilde g}=250$~GeV.

\end{figure}
The shaded area in the plot is excluded by experimental constraints on the
sparticle spectrum.
We observe that the Standard Model prediction of about $17.2\,\mathrm{ps}^{-1}$
can be exceeded by up to one order of magnitude. The effect decreases rapidly
with increasing gluino mass.
As the phase of $\Lambda_3$ is undetermined,
there is potentially large mixing-induced CP violation in decays such as
$B_s \to \psi \phi$ and $B_s\to\psi \eta^{(\prime)}$. This is also
visible from Fig.~\ref{fig:bb} (right), where the accessible region in
the complex $M_{12}$ plane is shown in light grey (orange) and the region
excluded by the experimental lower bound~\cite{bhadprop} $\Delta M_{B_s}>14.5\,\mathrm{ps}^{-1}$
is shown in dark grey (blue). The SM
prediction, almost real, is also indicated.

\section{$\Delta F=1$ processes: Constraints and predictions}
\subsection{Constraint from $BR(\tau\to\mu\gamma)$}
In the leptonic sector a strong constraint comes from the process $\tau\to\mu\gamma$.
The Standard Model contribution is negligible,
and the supersymmetric contributions~\cite{taumugsusy} are due to
the diagrams shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:taumugdiag}.

\caption{Diagrams contributing to $\tau \to \mu \gamma$. Approximate mass eigenstates
of three different masses are involved, two for the left-handed sleptons and one right-handed
charged slepton.
\label{fig:taumugdiag}}
\end{figure}
Note that the amplitude involves a chirality flip, either via the equation of
motion on the external $\tau$ line, through a Yukawa-like coupling
in the vertex, or through an internal LR flip due to left-right mixing
in the slepton mass matrix (only for the neutralino contribution).
In the CMM model, this LR mixing is small and can be treated
in the mass-insertion approximation.
Such an expansion would not be well justified for the LL mixing due to
the large mixing angle present there.
The branching ratio takes the (schematic) form
$$ BR(\tau \to \mu \gamma) \propto |C_7'|^2, \qquad
C_7' = \frac{e^3}{(4\pi)^2 \sin^2 \theta_W}
U_{\tau 3} U_{\mu 3}^*
A \left( m_{\tilde l}, m_{{\tilde \chi}^{0,-}}, \mu \right) .
$$
As an important difference to $B_s\!-\!\ov{B}{}_s\,$\ mixing, it depends on
the $\mu$-parameter, which is uncorrelated with the squark and slepton masses
in the CMM model. Numerically we find that the chargino-sneutrino diagrams
dominate the amplitude for $|\mu| < 1000 \ensuremath{\,\mbox{GeV}}$. Furthermore,
the dominant piece exhibits decoupling as $1/\mu$ for $|\mu| \to \infty$.

experimental limit on $BR(\tau \to \mu \gamma)$ is reached. The

the short-dash-dotted one to $\mu=-600 \ensuremath{\,\mbox{GeV}}.^c$
\label{fig:bbtmg}}
\end{figure}
The effect of this is visible in Fig.~\ref{fig:bbtmg} (left), where
the dependence of the branching ratio (keeping all terms) on $\mu$ is shown
for fixed parameters $m_{{\tilde g}} = 250 \ensuremath{\,\mbox{GeV}}, m_{\tilde q} = 1000 \ensuremath{\,\mbox{GeV}}$ and for
$a_d = 0.75\, m_{\tilde q}$.
We indeed verify from the figure that the impact of the
BaBar  bound~\cite{tmgbound} $BR(\tau \to \mu \gamma)<6.8 \times 10^{-8}$
strongly depends on $\mu$.
For a given $\mu$, the contour where the bound is reached divides the
plane of Fig.~\ref{fig:bb} (left) into an allowed and an excluded
region.
This is illustrated in Fig.~\ref{fig:bbtmg} (right).
We conclude that without specifying $\mu$, large $B_s\!-\!\ov{B}{}_s\,$\ mixing\ cannot be
excluded by $\tau \to \mu \gamma$:
for instance, for $\mu<-600 \ensuremath{\,\mbox{GeV}}$ the impact of
the bound almost disappears.

plot is included in the slides for this talk, available on the Moriond website.}

\subsection{Bounds from $\Delta B=1$ processes}
While so far there exist only lower bounds on the $B_s\!-\!\ov{B}{}_s\,$ mass difference,
one can also try to constrain the CMM model through information on
$b \to s$ transitions such as $B_d \to X_s \gamma$, $B_d \to X_s l^+ l^-$
and $B_d \to \phi K_S$, which have been observed.\cite{gutdelb1,bsgcmm} We have so far not
studied these in comparable detail. However, we can make the
following remarks: $B_d \to X_s \gamma$, like $\tau \to \mu \gamma$,
is sensitive to left-right mixing, which is generally not large
in the CMM model. Furthermore, the chiral flavor structure of the model
would primarily generate the mirror image $Q_{7 \gamma}'$ of the
SM magnetic penguin operator $Q_{7 \gamma}$; then the SM and CMM contributions do
not interfere due to the different chirality structure.\cite{bsgcmm}
In view of the still substantial theoretical uncertainties in this decay,
it is possible that information on this mode poses no additional constraints.
Similar comments apply to $B_d \to X_s l^+ l^-$. Nevertheless, a complete
analysis should include a more detailed treatment.
The branching ratios for loop-induced hadronic decay modes such as
$B_d \to \phi K_S$ suffer from large theoretical uncertainties,
precluding any effective constraint.

\subsection{Mixing-decay interference in $b \to s$ penguin decays}
Unlike the decay rates, the time-dependent CP asymmetries in
penguin-dominated $B_d \to M K_S$ decays with a vector or pseudoscalar meson $M$
in the final state
are theoretically rather clean and close to the one in $B_d \to J/\psi K_S$ in
the Standard Model.
This is due to the fact that, the decay amplitudes being nearly real,
all are dominated by the single weak phase $2 \beta$ entering through
the $B_d\!-\!\ov{B}{}_d\,$\ mixing\  amplitude.

While in the latter mode the decay amplitude arises at tree level,
in the former it is loop-induced and both its modulus and weak phase
are sensitive to new physics, destroying the relation.\cite{bphiknp}
Indeed there is a well-known discrepancy between the experimental
world average over penguin modes,
$-\eta_{\rm CP} S_{f} (b \to s\; \mbox{penguin}) = 0.43 \pm 0.07$,
and that over charmonium modes,
$\sin 2 \beta (b \to c \bar c s) = 0.726 \pm 0.037$.\cite{sin2betlit}

While we have not yet performed a detailed numerical analysis,
analytical results obtained within QCD factorization for the relevant
operator matrix elements show that the parity
reflection $Q_{8g}'$ of the SM chromomagnetic penguin operator could
give an ${\cal O}(1)$ correction to the Standard Model amplitude, again with an
unconstrained phase $\theta$ correlated with the $B_s\!-\!\ov{B}{}_s\,$\ mixing\ phase.
We remark that in the limit where this contribution
dominates the amplitude, the CP asymmetry would measure $\sin (2 \beta
+ 2 \theta)$ in all cases. In the general case of interference
with the Standard Model contribution, there is dependence on the final state.\cite{bspengfs}
A recent generic analysis~\cite{rhpeng} relevant to the CMM model suggests,
however, that right-handed squark mixing can account for the data in
both vector and pseudoscalar final states.

\section{Conclusion}
We have studied a SUSY $SO(10)$ model implying correlations between
neutrino mixing angles and the flavor structure of certain sfermion mass matrices.
Large effects are found possible for $B_s\!-\!\ov{B}{}_s\,$\ mixing\ and $\tau \to \mu \gamma$. Both are correlated,
but the additional dependence of the latter on the $\mu$-parameter allows to satisfy the
experimental bound while retaining a large mass difference and/or CP violation in the former.
A large chromomagnetic penguin in $b \to s$ penguin decays is suggested within QCD factorization.
Whether this can generate time-dependent CP asymmetries at the observed central values remains
to be resolved through a numerical analysis.

My soul was called back out to Sidney and I had to follow. The girl and I are spending a few days on Vancouver Island to be near the ocean, renew our souls, visit old memories, and make new ones.
This place has always felt like my second home, we spent so much time here when I was a kid. My parents had a house we all loved here for a few years, but before and after that we would come and stay in the exact same hotel the girl and I are in now.
There are memory imprints of us walking on the logs along the water with grandma, of Easter egg hunts in the courtyard, of lunch at Lunns, and of trips into Victoria.
Victoria for me always centers around the triangle of Murchie's, Munro's, and Roger's – and today we hit all three of them. Mom used to spend hours in the bookstore gathering a new stash of reading material, and dad and my sister and I would run between the other stores.
I needed to touch base with some different family memories. Mom and Dad were never sick here, this place doesn't hold divorce pain or death pain. It holds memories of us riding bikes, gathering seashells, and running free.
As I watched the girl pick shells in the rain while grinning from ear to ear, I remembered we are not only visiting old memories but making new ones.
Life does always go on. I need to hold onto these happy memories, remember when mom and dad were alive, when they weren't sick, when life was easier. But I need to hold onto this moment when I'm here with my girl and we are alive and healthy. And I need to embrace the changes the future will bring.

Nine Dragons
Chen Rong. Nine Dragons (detail). 1244. Ink on paper. Boston Museum of Fine Arts.
Chee-Keong Kung – Notes on Nine Dragons
"For a long time now, I have been fascinated by Chen Rong's Nine Dragons from the Southern Song dynasty (13th century). An exemplary work of technical virtuosity and ineffable grace. The brush-and-ink painting depict churning clouds, winds, and waves among jagged rocks while dragons mysteriously appear and disappear amidst the turmoil. Compositionally, there are large swaths of open space and dark shadows, recognizable elements and abstract shapes, and a sense of depth and movement through time. "
"A small print-out of the painting (actual painting including inscriptions is 50 feet long) hangs on my studio wall as an inspiration and a reminder that the simplest of gestures can transport us to uncommon places. Most recently, I was looking for a way to start a new series of canvases and found that the light-and-dark patterns within the painting worked wonderfully as jumping-off points. The new canvases eventually became the black-and-white works that are currently in the Oblique Horizons exhibit at the Schlesinger Arts Center. "
Oblique Horizons is on display through June 10, 2018 in the Fisher gallery . The gallery is open Monday through Friday 10-4PM and evenings and weekends during public performances in the wall. Chee-Keong Kung will be at the gallery Sunday May 20th, 2018 from 3-5PM. To find out more about Chee-Keong Kung, Please visit his About The Artist page.

Small Domestic Miracles: Works by Emily R. Shepardson
Emily R. Shepardson will be having a solo exhibition entitled Small Domestic Miracles in the Fisher Gallery of prints and paintings starting January 20, 2018 and running through March 5, 2018. There will be a artist reception on Saturday afternoon, February 10, 2018 2-4PM.
Emily is a printmaker and painter who describes her process has collage-like. For a print she will begin with a series of different plates and stencils layers and combined until the final image is achieved.
She describes small domestic miracles as household magic like soaking white napkins in bleach to remove food stains, or perfectly gluing a broken cup back together again. It could also be catching sight of a tangle of birds circling over the house or having a crow follow me to work. In my art, it's a glimpse of a swan in the creek, or the shadow touch of a hand on your back.

Clown Car of Virginia GOP U.S. Senate Candidates Grows, Demonstrating Yet...
lowkell - February 13, 2018
Yep, the Virginia GOP clown car of U.S. Senate candidates -- Ewwww Jackson, Neo-Confederate nutjob Corey Stewart, the Teabagger who employs this dude --...
Glenn Nye Awaits Tuesday's Delivery
Dan Sullivan - June 6, 2010
While the 2nd Congressional District establishment candidate sits back and anticpates victory Tuesday, his opponents make every effort to attract voters at the margin. This Republican primary features two retired military flag grade officers, each trying to out Curtis LeMay each other. Only one of the six candidates hasn't "served."
Yesterday was a bit telling outside the weekly Virginia Beach Republican breakfast meeting. Apparently only one candidate's campaign considers the battle within the party still joined. The local committee chose a subject less controversial by featuring Philip Shucet (President/CEO of Hampton Roads Transit) inside. Good there is so much military experience among the aspiring nominees because this group crossed the Rubicon long ago in this campaign. Most of the others are focusing on supporters variously aligned with the local taxpayer alliance, libertarians, and/or tea partiers. And all of them, bar one, have spent much of the campaign trying to close with and destroy Scott Rigell, the McDonnell candidate. Meanwhile the committee's last chair, Kenny Golden has parted their company to run as an independent.
Bert Mizusawa has released a bevy of negative ads focusing on Rigell, prominently featuring the metamorphisis of rationalization offered for his donation to President Obama's campaign; from inspired by the campaign to trying to defeat Hillary. Ben Loyola has claimed the mantle of fiscal conservative, signing a no tax pledge and receiving the endorsement of the local tea party. The others are curious in their own right. It should be interesting to review the campaign finance reports on each and every one. Ed Maulbeck told Tony Macrini last week that the contributions have been flowing in of late; that to now there had been people "stuffing money in his pockets," but he had not made a concerted effort to raise funds. The one candidate that hasn't connected with the outliers is Jessica Sandlin whose resume actually seems to embody the much vaunted Republican "family values."
What is certain is that come Tuesday night, the Republican nominee will be damaged goods. Scott Rigell's campaign has been smart to avoid joining the fray. It has focused on his professional and personal accomplishments and the support of Bob McDonnell. But for most, bridges have been burned come a Rigell victory. And fuel will be added to the fire over the next two days. Tuesday night, the strident and motivated "conservatives" will not have a champion; or, Congressman Nye will face an opponent who stands at the fringe of electability.

WBC unveils new playing pitch strategy
Mon, 10 February 2020 Mon, 10 February 2020 Julian Swift-Hook 512 Views
A new strategy focused on developing sports pitches across the district will be considered by West Berkshire Council's Executive Committee on Thursday 13 February.
According to a press release from West Berkshire Council today, it has been working with Sport England and local sporting bodies to develop a document which it says will guide the investment, development and improvement of playing pitches over the next ten years.
The document, titled The West Berkshire Playing Pitch Strategy covers hockey, cricket and rugby as well as football. It will be introduced by Councillor Rick Jones, Executive Member for Public Health and Community Wellbeing.
This is an important document which gives us a good insight into the capacity and quality of outdoor sports pitches in West Berkshire. It's been drawn up in partnership with local sporting organisations and following input from local clubs who have been given the chance to have their say.
Cllr Rick Jones, WBC Executive Member for Public Health & Community Wellbeing.
Speaking ahead of the meeting, Councillor Jones described the document as "an excellent starting point to help us promote and continuously improve [our] local playing pitches" and claims that it will help "support local high profile clubs with the most appropriate facilities".
He noted that the demand for playing facilities is strong in West Berkshire, and added, "we intend to work with local sporting authorities and clubs, in partnership, to meet that demand."
The Council has appointed consultants 4global Consulting to look at options for new football facility to permanently home the high performing teams such as Newbury Football Club and Newbury Ladies, as well as making the venue available to community sports.

U.S. Diplomat Tells VOA Kosovo Albanians are Not Ready for Final Status Talks
If negotiations are to begin in the fall, all Kosovo residents must prepare
The highest-ranking U.S. diplomat in Kosovo told the Voice of America (VOA) Monday that local leaders are unprepared for talks to determine the final status of the province.
Philip Goldberg, head of the U.S. Office in Pristina, said "nothing has been done (by the Albanian leaders) to prepare for those negotiations." He also called for a unified stand among Albanian politicians on the issue of preparations for the talks.
Final status negotiations may begin this fall, if United Nations envoy Kai Eide finds that the overall situation in Kosovo is favorable.
Mr. Goldberg urged Kosovo Serbs to play their part by participating in the parliament and other self-governing institutions. He blamed the government in Belgrade for failing to play a constructive role in helping Kosovo Serbs' self-governing efforts.
Goldberg's interview was aired during today's Albanian language Ditari (Journal) program, which is broadcast each weekday from 6:00-6:30 p.m. local time (1700-1730 UTC) to audiences throughout the Balkans. VOA also transmits 10.5 hours a week in Albanian via shortwave. Programs are available on the Internet at www.VOANews.com/Albanian.


Witnesses called police Sunday evening to report gunshots being fired in the 400 block of Gardenia. According to police, a black Dodge Charger with black rims, pulled up in front of the residence and turned off the vehicle's headlights.
One of the witnesses told Officer James Gillen, with the Orange Police Dept., that they saw two bursts of fire coming from the Charger from an unknown handgun, and being aimed directly at the residence.
As one of the bullets struck the ground, witnesses saw a cloud of dust. The witness also said that the Charger then began heading towards Bluebonnet before the headlights were turned back on. The vehicle then turned right onto Bluebonnet.
Police made several attempts to make contact with anyone inside the residence, and the homeowner eventually emerged from the residence. She said she had been inside and heard the shots but thought nothing of it until police were knocking on her door.
While speaking with the witnesses, Officer Gillen observed two silver shell casings in front of the home.
Officer Hilyar, who was also on the scene, saw that a front window at the residence was shattered and had a circular hole in the center. A copper colored bullet, with white transfer paint, was then located on the interior window frame, just above the window sill.
Nobody was reported injured in the shooting.
The home owner told police that she wishes to press charges if a suspect can be located and identified.

Well, at least the ports system itself should not be broken able to work with this. With larger ports I manage to reduce build times by 40% with distcc and a second machine. As far as I see it the number of ports breaking is rather low. On many ports it simply doesn't have an effect, but so far only editors/vim really breaks on my systems.
BTW, I apologize for this is not at all a portupgrade issue, but an issue of the ports system.

One of the tips you've heard (and will hear) me give time and time again is that one of the most important things when writing is to write where, how and when suits you.
For me – as you probably well know by now! – that means writing regularly, as my mental health permits, and in a very clean and tidy space. Today, I want to concentrate on just that final part – the space in which I write.
I am exceptionally fortunate to have a house large enough to have a separate study. Because both my partner and I work from home, this was a requirement for us when picking a house. I don't regret it for a moment. The room is bright, large, and most importantly has my back to his desk so I don't have to see his mess.
Speaking of mess, though. Whilst I definitely did tidy my desk for the photograph above, this is nonetheless quite representative of how tidy I prefer to have it. I generally have my bullet journal – the blue notebook you can see on the in-tray – open in front of me at all times, displaying my weekly spread. This, however, is the extent of the clutter I can permit.
I suspect this is something to do with having lived in very, very messy spaces during the worst of my depression. These days, I can't do this; I can't cope with it.
I am still messy, as anyone who has ever come into my kitchen will know. I still don't clean things up instantly. I have to fight to make myself maintain my house – my weapons a weekly cleaning plan and a 'when did I last' page (displaying things like changing bedsheets, washing towels, cleaning windows etc) in my project journal.
But messy spaces are a magnet for my depression and anxiety. One of the many problems with depression is that it saps your motivation, and then as a result you find yourself living in a manifestation of your own trauma.
And, as you have also heard me say a hundred times now, depression and anxiety are the enemy of creation. If I am unwell, writing is one of the hardest things to do. So I have to do everything I can to give myself a happy, healthy space to write in.
This remains a truth that isn't well publicised, which is why you will hear me repeat it. We need to do away with the concept of great trauma breeding great imagination. Yes, trauma can be an incredible informant for future creation. But if you are in the midst of that trauma? You cannot possibly bring it forth. You need health and safety and peace.
So do not feel ashamed if you have to fight for your ideal writing space. I fight for it every day, an ongoing battle with my depression and innate messiness.

bands for fans
Break On Through • Ray Manzarek
May 20, 2013 • No Comments •rock
On May 20th, 2013, Raymond Daniel Manzarek, one of the founding members of the seminal psychedelic rock group, The Doors, passed away at the age of 74 after fighting a long battle with bile duct cancer. Ray was the official mouthpiece of The Doors, championing his group every chance he got. And with good reason. The Doors were, in my opinion, the most important rock band to come out of 1960's and that's saying a lot when you consider the other acts that were around at the time: Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Bob Dylan, the list could go on and on and not that I'm taking anything away from these other artists listed. Indeed, they we're important in shaping that era, and on a larger scale, music in general, but the difference between those acts and The Doors was that The Doors were the total package, and Ray Manzarek left a legacy in today's music (Sublime sampled Manzarek's organ part from the song "When The Music's Over" in their song "Cisco Kid" off of their 1994 album, Robbin' The Hood; Jay-Z sampled The Doors classic, "Five To One" in his song, "Takeover" on his 2001 album, The Blueprint. In 2009 Ray played the organ music from "When The Music's Over" on a "Weird Al" Yankovic parody titled "Craigslist" In the purposely psychedelic video for the song, Yankovic is giving us his best Morrison impression. "Weird Al" will never be Jim Morrison, but he gets an 'A' for effort).
The Doors were, in my opinion, the most important rock band to come out of 1960's
Even after Jim Morrison's death on July 3rd, 1971, Ray Manzarek, Robby Krieger, and John Densmore released two more Doors albums (1971's Other Voices and 1972's Full Circle) with Ray taking over lead vocal duties. Neither album was as successful as the other albums in their catalog, but it just goes to show you, once music gets in your system, you can't help but heed its call whenever it moves you to do so. Needless to say, the band disbanded in 1973.
once music gets in your system, you can't help but heed its call whenever it moves you to do so.
After the dissolution of The Doors, Ray Manzarek, ever the restless soul, went on to perform for groups such as, Nite City. In 1980 he played bass for and produced the debut album, Los Angeles for punk band, X. He also backed the band, Echo and the Bunnymen on their 1987 self-titled album playing keyboard on the song "Bedbugs and Ballyhoo" (The 2003 reissue of this album featured tracks not released on the original. One of the featured tracks was a cover of The Doors' Soul Kitchen, on which Ray did not perform. Also in 1987, Echo and the Bunnymen recorded another Doors song, this time choosing People Are Strange, which was also produced by Ray and was included in 1987's The Lost Boys soundtrack. Below, I have included the official music video of People Are Strange by The Doors)

Always one to keep the lifeblood of The Doors music alive and kicking, Ray Manzarek, Doors guitarist, Robby Krieger, and Doors percussionist, John Densmore reunited countless times since Morrison's passing. The first time was in 1978 when the then three remaining members got together to provide backing music for some of Jim Morrison's poetry which he had recorded between the years 1969-1970 for what was to be the group's ninth and final studio album titled, An American Prayer. In 2000, the then-remaining Doors reunited for one last live performance for VH1 Storytellers. For this performance, The Doors recruited guest vocalists to fill in for Jim.
Ray Manzarek was and always will be remembered not only for being a founding member of The Doors, but also for the treasure chest of music he left behind. His music has transcended genres and more than anything else, Ray was always cutting edge because no matter where the music scene was going, he was always there to greet it. Case in point, in 2011 Ray, Robby, and John collaborated with up and coming deejay, Skrillex to record the song, "Breakin' A Sweat" for the music documentary RE:GENERATION. Years will advance, new forms of music will come into being, but one thing that will remain true is that Ray Manzarek and the music he helped create is and always will be immortal, just like the man himself. Rest in peace Ray. It seems you finally broke on through to the other side.
Ray was always cutting edge because no matter where the music scene was going, he was always there to greet it…Rest in peace Ray. It seems you finally broke on through to the other side.

Creating a Universal Design Language for Acoustical Solutions
12/20/2018 By Kadie Yale
The inter-connected world has long been the backbone of ingenuity and trends in the design industry. From the earliest history of design, craftsmen have been using techniques, themes and materials brought back from far off places. The internet and ability to easily travel across the globe has only strengthened the ways in which contemporary design is able to blend together aspects of different cultures into one.
Acoustical lighting collection, Blossom, is one such combination.
Designed by Italian Mario Alessiani and available through the Dutch design brand Bogaerts, the evolution of Blossom took into consideration the needs of a global market through the lens of two cultures with a history of wildly varying aesthetics and materials.
Philip Bogaerts explained that seeing the initial design for Blossom fit perfectly into the label's mission to create positive environments through colors, materials, shapes, climates and sounds. Yet the heavy work came through narrating the product's story for differing audiences. For one: Alessiani had called his original Blossom design "Bloemi." Although coming from the Dutch word "bloem" that means "flower," the pronunciation differences between Italian and Dutch lead the team to try to find an appropriate middle ground between the two.
Another difference that was made between Bloemi and Blossom was the use of materials. Originally, Bloemi had been made of a hexagonal wooden structure to which the medium-density fiberboard (MDF)-backed padded panels attached. Because of the dynamic shape and interest in the market for acoustical products, Bogaerts said that the original 30 centimeter design was made larger so that two sizes of the hanging pendant are now available, and wall panels were integrated into the collection. Instead of wood and MDF, the frames of the pendants are made up of metal.
Available through Good Spec in the U.S., Blossom is arranged so that the six padded petals overlap one atop the next. This arrangement creates an abstract flower shape that is inspired by irises with a soft glow emanating from the single bulb in the middle of the pendant.
While the design and narration came from a variety of regions, the increasing need for beautiful acoustic solutions is a global issue in design. While the pendant can be used in different commercial settings, it was created with the ever-expanding open office in mind.

Washing Station: Aroresa
Owner: Wochesa Achiso
Region: Bensa, Sidama
Elevation: 1,900 - 2,000m
Variety: Heirloom Bourbon & Typica
Sourced Through: Melbourne Coffee Merchants
Aroresa (pronounced "A-ro-ress-a") originates from the Bensa 'woreda' (administrative district) in the Sidama Zone in Ethiopia's Southern Oromia State. It is named after the 'kebele' (local village) of Aroresa.
The washing station sits at 1,856m above sea level, and is privately owned by Wochesa Achiso, who buys cherries from local families - each cultivate small plots of land (averaging 2 – 5 hectares in size), located 1,900–2,000 metres above sea level.
Wochesa Achiso works collaboratively with Testi Coffee, who supports the washing station with quality control and also supports the washing station to market and sell their coffee. Testi Coffee is a family owned business that was founded ten years ago by Mr Faysel Yonis. The company is committed to maximising the potential of Ethiopian coffee and enriching the lives of the communities that are connected to it.
Testi Coffee's business model is basically to buy coffee cherry from their 'out-growers' (an Ethiopian term for a small-holder who contributes to a particular washing station), while working with them to improve the quality of the coffee, and help develop the social conditions in the communities for the out-growers.
The team at Testi Coffee are very proud of the quality of coffee that they produce. In 2018, they launched a quality improvement program called the Premium Cherry Selection (PCS). Through this program, they pay a premium to producers who pick only the very ripest cherries from their farms. These coffees represent the very best that they have to offer, and this lot from Aroresa is a Premium Cherry Selection lot.
Mr Faysel, the owner of Testi, strongly believes that increased rewards for the out-growers should be shared by their entire community as a whole, rather than just delivering more financial benefits to the out growers themselves. To this end, he has launched an initiative called Project Direct, which focuses on directly helping coffee farmers, their families, and surrounding communities in tangible and positive ways. The project has helped to build schools and get communities access to clean water. Their goal in the future is to get support from their importing and roasting partners to make this initiative more fruitful.
This coffee is a mix of local varieties, including native coffees from forest origin that are collectively known as 'Ethiopian Heirloom'. All of these varieties are Arabica and most originate from a Typica predecessor, but with wild mutations that result in some exceptional and unique flavour profiles. The coffee has been processed as a washed lot using fresh water from the nearby river Hamile. It is classified as Grade 1, indicating that a lot of effort has been put into the selection and grading during processing.
Each day, carefully hand-picked coffee cherries are delivered to the Aroresa mill and are meticulously sorted by hand and a floatation tank prior to processing to remove unripe, overripe, or damaged fruit, in order to enhance the quality and sweetness of the cup. The coffee cherries are then pulped using a disk pulper to remove the fruit and skin, and then graded by weight; heavier beans are superior quality and deliver a sweeter cup. After grading, the parchment-covered coffee is soaked in tanks of clean water for 24–48 hours to remove the mucilage (sticky covering) by allowing it to ferment and detach from the coffee. The coffee is then re-washed and graded again by density in washing channels and soaked in clean water for 12–24 hours.
The coffee is then dried for around 12 days on African drying beds, firstly under cover (for up to a day) and then subsequently in the sun. Whilst drying, the coffee is carefully hand-sorted, and any defects are removed. It is also turned regularly to ensure that it dries evenly and consistently. At midday, the coffee is covered to protect it from full sun. It is also covered overnight to prevent damage from morning dew. Once the coffee is dry it is rested in parchment until it is ready for export. Aroresa is a fine example of the distinctive and unique nature of coffee produced in this region.

State: Bahia
Region: Chapada Diamantina
Town: Mucugê
Altitude: 1,150m above sea level
Variety: Catuaí
Processing: Natural
Owner: Borré Family
Awards: Cup of Excellence 2015 #15
Fazenda Progresso is a beautiful farm nestled in the Chapada Diamatina mountain range in the heart of Bahia. The farm is surrounded by the Chapada Diamantina National Park, known for its mountainous cliff formations (Chapada) and 19th century diamond mining (Diamantina).
The history of Fazenda Progresso dates back to 1984, when the Borré family migrated from southern Brazil to the northeast and purchased some land in the municipality of Ibicoara, near the town of Mucugê. In the early years, the family tried growing crops such as soybeans, wheat, and English potatoes. The potatoes turned out to be an incredibly successful crop, stimulating investments and making the family one of the largest producers of potatoes in Brazil!
In 2005, the Borré family sought to diversify the activities on their land, and so began to focus on coffee. As MCM learnt when they first met the family, when they commit to a new project, they seek to do it to the very highest possible standard. Their work with coffee is no exception. The family's commitment to producing exceptional coffee has been unwavering over the last decade. They have sought advice from some of the most respected professionals in the field, including Silvio Leite, founder of the Cup of Excellence and president of the Brazil Specialty Coffee Association, with 30 years' experience in coffee grading, tasting, and quality control.
The Borré family has invested heavily to ensure that they have the very best infrastructure to process coffee, which allows them to control quality every step of the way, from picking right through to export. They have a dedicated quality control lab with a talented cupping team headed up by Ednaldo Nascimento (AKA 'Gandula'—nicknamed after the boy that replaces the ball during a soccer match)! Gandula and his team assess every lot of coffee produced and ensure that the quality is the very best it can be.
The Borrés are very hands-on in their approach to managing the farm. They are extremely professional in the way they conduct their business, and they take great care to create an excellent work environment for their staff. Throughout the year, there are around 200 permanent staff members on the farm, and this number grows to 650 during the harvest. Many of these harvest workers return every year, and all are provided with daily bus transportation and food.
In total, 700 hectares of the property are dedicated to coffee; this land is divided up into different plots, which are processed separately. Over time, the family has worked out the optimum way to plant coffee trees in order to maximise productivity, with 50 centimetres between each tree and three metres between each row of trees.This year we have purchased coffee from four different plots on the property; each is extremely unique in its profile, and all are exceptional!
Historically all of the coffee at Fazenda Progresso was processed using the pulped natural method, but in 2017 Fabiano started to experiment with naturally processed coffee, and the results have been exceptional. This lot is a natural processed lot from the farm, which was carefully hand-picked by a specially trained team in August. The cherries were selected at the peak of ripeness, and then carefully dried on meticulously clean patios in the sun, and turned regularly to ensure they dried evenly. When the cherry was almost purple, the dried fruit skin and parchment was taken off with a mechanical huller at Progresso's mill. The coffee was then rested until ready for export.
The Borré family business has always been managed and directed by family members and is now in its third generation of operation. Fabiano Borré looks after everything to do with the coffee side of the business. He is young, focused and very motivated to produce the very best coffee he can. You can read an interview with Fabiano Borré here.
"Working with something so sensitive, so changeable, involving the most varied areas of knowledge and then get to share all this with incredible people… it's amazing. That's why I choose coffee!" – Fabiano Borré
The Borré family takes great care to protect and preserve the ecological health of their area. Water is conserved and meteorological stations are positioned throughout the farm to optimise irrigation and ensure the trees get the right amount of water. Cascara pulp from processing is composted (along with potato wastage, which is very high in potassium and great for coffee trees!) and used to fertilise trees throughout the plantation.
In 2015, for the first time, the Borré family entered their coffee into the Cup of Excellence competition. It placed 15th—a fantastic achievement and testament to the hard work, resources, and focus that have been put into producing exceptional coffee.
La Serrania (Decaf) - Colombia
Dark chocolate, toasted hazelnuts and mulberries.
Region: Huila
Elevation: 1,600m
Varietals: Colombia, Caturra & Typica
Sourced Through: Caravela Coffee
This lot is a blend of coffee from small producers in Pitalito, Huila that was decaffeinated in Colombia (the same country as that which the coffee was grown) using ethylacetate - a by product derived from fermented sugar cane - which was also grown in Colombia! Ethylacetate is an ester that occurs naturally in fruits and vegetables such as bananas, apples and - coffee. The result is an incredibly fresh, clean and sweet, naturally decaffeinated coffee.

For example, President George W. Bush's most recent CPB appointees, Gay Hart Gaines and Cheryl Halpern, have along with their families given more than $800,000 to the Republican Party and candidates since 1995. And both appointees have backgrounds that raise questions about their suitability to serve on the board. During her confirmation hearing last fall, Halpern indicated that she would welcome giving CPB members the authority to intervene in program content when they felt a program was biased. Gaines chaired Newt Gingrich's (R-GA) political committee GOPAC. This is the same Gingrich who as House Speaker proposed cutting all federal assistance to public television.
Current board chairman Kenneth Tomlinson has given $7,700 to Republicans since 1995, and has been active in Republican politics. A friend of Karl Rove, he is quoted in The New Yorker article as saying,"It is absolutely critical for people on the right to feel they have the same ownership stake in public television as people on the left have." Tomlinson has also objected to Moyers' including commentary in his programs.
The decision by CPB to fund two programs — one hosted by Tucker Carlson, who speaks for conservatives on CNN's "Crossfire," and one moderated by Paul Gigot, editorial page editor of The Wall Street Journal, at the same time that "NOW with Bill Moyers," which receives no CPB funds, is cut from an hour to 30 minutes, in what appears to be a Bush Administration litmus test for choosing members of the CPB.
Here is the transcript of an NPR interview with Aluetta.
Looks like Bill Moyers picked the right time to retire from Television.

Media Releases »Crackdown on nitrous oxide canister sales
Crackdown on nitrous oxide canister sales
Tougher restrictions on the sale of nitrous oxide canisters, or 'nangs', will come into effect early next year, following approval from South Australia's Controlled Substances Advisory Council.
Attorney-General, Vickie Chapman said the Government had put forward a series of measures, which were considered by the Council today.
"I'm pleased to advise the council has accepted our recommendations, and we will now be moving to progress these measures," Ms Chapman said.
With the support of the Council, the Government will move to:
Restrict the sale and supply of canisters to people aged over 18
Prohibit the public display of canisters in a retail business, and require that the products be kept in an area that is inaccessible to the public
Mandate the display of notices setting out the offences related to the sale of canisters in retail premises (similar to notices in stores selling cigarettes or spray paint)
Ban the retail sale of canisters between 10pm and 5am
"We recognise there are legitimate uses for these canisters, and these restrictions should not impact on those who wish to buy them for lawful reasons," Ms Chapman said.
"However, they will make it harder for those retailers who sell the canisters, most likely knowing they'll be abused, along with those who seek to misuse these products and expose themselves to serious risk of harm.
"These changes are also in line with recommendations from Encounter Youth, who see first-hand nitrous oxide being misused, especially in environments such as Hindley Street," Attorney-General Chapman said.
"Additionally, we appreciate there are educational facilities that are likely to use these canisters in cooking classes, and we will provide exemptions to ensure they can continue supplying these products to students as required.
"Given these measures will have an impact on those businesses that stock these products, we will be providing a phase-in period before these regulations come into effect – to ensure they have enough time to modify their practices in line with these restrictions."
The changes will be made through regulation before the end of the year and come into effect early next year.

Scientist Report Solving Costly Hog Disease
Dec 7, 2015 | Ep4116
The journal Nature Biotechnology Monday morning published the work of University of Missouri professors who report they have genetically modified pigs to be resistant to one of the hog industry's most troublesome diseases.
Animal science professor Kevin Wells, who co-wrote the article with peer Randy Prather, said they were able to knock out a gene that responds to the Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome, or PRRS virus. Researchers at Kansas State University conducted tests in which the genetically engineered hogs were deliberately exposed to PRSS, and found the animals to be 100 percent resistant.
Dr. Kevin Wells, University of Missouri, animal science: "I think it's important long-term to try to develop transgenic animals or livestock that have lower impact on the environment and that are naturally resistant to more diseases."
However, because of federal regulations tied to genetic modifications, the pigs are prohibited from being sold into the food system. If the government does approve the hogs for commercial release, Wells believes the process will likely take two to three years. The recently-approved genetically engineered salmon became the first modified animal to be approved as human food. The federal regulatory process required two decades.
The Agriculture Department, which also had been working on a biotech solution to the illness, says that PRSS costs the U.S. hog industry $1 billion annually.
