About Milo Baughman (Designer)
Milo Baughman was one of the most agile and adept modern American furniture designers of the late 20th century. A prolific lecturer and writer on the benefits of good design — he taught for years at Brigham Young University — Baughman (whose often-scrambled surname is pronounced BAWF-man) focused almost exclusively on residential furnishings, having a particular talent for lounge chairs, perhaps the most sociable piece of furniture.
Like his fellow adoptive Californians Charles and Ray Eames, Baughman's furniture has a relaxed and breezy air. Baughman was famously opposed to ostentatious and idiosyncratic designs that were made to excite attention. While many of his chair designs are enlivened by such effects as tufted upholstery, Baughman tended to let his materials carry the aesthetic weight, most often relying on chair and table frames made of sturdy and sleek flat-bar chromed metal, and chairs, tables and cabinets finished with highly-figured wood veneers.
Like his colleagues Karl Springer and the multifarious Pierre Cardin, Baughman's designs are emblematic of the 1970s: sleek, sure and scintillating. As you will see from the furniture presented on these pages, Milo Baughman's designs are ably employed as either the heart of a décor or its focal point.

Can't take much more
I will try to make this quick and easy.
I'm a stepdad. Two great kids, I've been with them since 18 months and birth, 11 and 13 now. So I'm as close to a live in dad as they know. They're bio dad is in picture but lives across the state. He sees them a few times a yr at increasing amounts of time.
To be honest I cannot blame the kids for much, Mom doesn't seem to support me the way she should. IMO, for what it's worth. I am nowhere near a great dad but I do what I think is right trying to enstil disapline and responsibility. Nothing crazy ie. pick up after yourself. World seems to be too difficult for mom most of the time. She sets bad examples doesn't back me up on much. Always wants to play instead of being financially responsible. I gave up trying to get upset yrs ago, it went nowhere. She shuts down. I can't expect the kids to do anything mom won't. I can't stand the idea of the kids not being here everyday, they've become my main purpose. I am not sure how much longer I can hang in here though. Once again I am nowhere near perfect, I've been told I become condescending when I get mad. Could be true. I'm not a neat freak just tired of only needing to clean for company. I need to pay off bills so I can breathe. This is difficult to do by myself.
I was always determined not to get a divorce, seeing what it was like growing up w/o Dad. I've been alone in my relationship for along time. Every day now I am killing myself internally dealing with this.
Re: Can't take much more
I'm very sorry, Jay21.
IMO, divorce doesn't resolve problems, it just exchanges one set of problems for another.
Have you tried to marriage and family counseling? Even if you go by yourself, you may learn new ways of dealing with conflict. As you change and grow, your family may change with you.
Re: Can't take much more
Counseling is an option - probably the best option you and your wife have at this moment in time.
Your situation would make any man depressed. Don't lose hope and don't stop trying. No one is perfect so don't beat yourself up over it. Try to work on not being condescending if you can. Being that way can be extremely hurtful, will cause more resentment than you will ever know. It's another form of control. Choose you battles carefully with the kids and your wife. A little slack for the kids never hurts, but they live in your house and it's your rules. They have responsibilities too. They live there - they help. Of course, I've given my kids plenty of slack (kids are kids). I'm not going to lose my cool because they didn't make their bed or dump the trash. What's the point in losing your cool over an unmade bed or trash not emptied? I always told them: "You get what you give." Drove them crazy, but I've heard them say the same thing.
Your wife is another story. Counseling is the best I can suggest. Keep trying to communicate your feelings and see if there is something she would like from you. This frustration (probably for both of you) has been piling up in layers for several years. That's what happens... One doesn't feel like they can communicate to the other so the resentment and frustration just piles up layer after layer until finally one or both give up. You're the man. You get the blunt of it, but you're the one who should be the Rock. If you're the one managing the finances and you know you're sinking. You're the one what needs to cancel the cards and live within the family budget.
Here's what worked for me. My wife loves to shop. So what she makes - she keeps. Initially she was opposed to it, but then she realized it was a pretty good deal. The only downfall was if she used credit cards, she had to pay them (I don't use credit cards very often - If I do I pay the charge off ASAP). Our finances have never been better. It won't work for everyone, but it's an idea. Of course I pay myself a little too.
Keep trying to communicate with your wife. Don't get angry with her - you already said she clams up. You're probably going to have to do some changes in your behavior too. Don't think you can't change because you can.
I do hope for the best for you and your family. Keep us posted if you would.
Re: Can't take much more
I wouldn't give up....not just yet....you've been given some very sound advice here...byt those who posted above me, and counseling would be a wise choice, b/c it if comes down to you having to leave, at least you'll know you tried everything.
It sounds like your pretty much disgusted with it all, and rightfully so...
I always said, "I never want to live someone else's idea of what a marriage should be." I couldn't ever do that, or even live with someone again, let alone marry.
It sounds to me, like now, your in it for the children and you love them and care about them, so I'd try the counseling. At this point, even if she doesn't want to go, you might receive some very good advice that will help make any necessary transition, easier for all concerned.
wishing you all the best.
Re: Can't take much more
As for kids, as long as there is SOMEONE responsible near by they may just pick up on it. At this age, they have pretty much learned right from wrong.
A suggestion from my experience: (my recent ex was a step dad to my son and bio to our daughter) don't push the discipline and responsibility issue tooo much. please. Kids shut off instantly with that. Getting it from everywhere, the ONE place they should be able to not is home. Where talking is OPEN. There is no "because I said so" type of rule.
My ex had NO relationship with either his step-son other than to be free labor/help with side jobs: "go get the other screwdriver" "clean up the area" and on. Didn't care about what was going on in his young life. What he did for fun, did he have a special girlfriend? How was school? etc The guy could't care less. He put on the DAD hat the minute something rubbed him the wrong way - like MY own dad had treated me. Usually threats, yelling, etc. He was just cruel. Through and through.
No connection with his own daughter. To this day, she is now 32 years old- been out of "HIS" house now for four years and she has NO contact with him whatsoever. He doesn't even call or write HER. I had to force him to connect with the kids on a fun level of some type, which usually ended up dd in tears and son storming off somewhere shutting down.
As for your wife, mom -- can't say. But there is something brewing.
It does seem as if you want to make it better. You are willing to try. That is the MOST IMPORTANT STEP!! My ex had no time. Too busy paying bills. Gone from 630am to 830 p -- Is what he called it, even though the REAL job? construction shut off and ended at 3:30 pm.
It is going to become even more challenging with teen years! Puberty. My son became an alcoholic at 18. At 19 he went into the air force and it was a welcome respite! I couldnt get him to open up about his demons. I never stopped caring. Being mom I enabled. Big time. My bad. I just saw so much of me being repeated thru him. We haven't spoken since 2004.
The moment dd's 'dad' came home (sometimes it was at dinner time), he was pushing her away. She was SO EXCITED to see him. To share her day, anything. He would literally move her away - for whatever he had to do at that moment, usually to find someones misplaced phone number in a heap of papers on his desk. Not even a pat on the head and a "hey, dad's got to put this stuff away and I'll be right back. I want to hear all about it."
Kids are not machines. They pick up on the most subtle clues from those who love them the most: no time for you, not important to me right now, do as I say or leave...and on and on.
Maybe start a family hour night: pizza, mud fights in the back yard, long walks to get ice cream...something.
As for picking stuff up for company? Get a HUGE plastic barrell and throw all the crap in the there and leave it their rooms. Do NOT dwell on this.
And their rooms are THEIR rooms. Giving them their privacy and space at this time is really important. I feel. Coming from experience--just let them know rules: no wild animals, no illegal stuff, no runaway friends, etc.
Best of luck. It isn't easy, being a dad OR a kid today! Babysteps. Just love them. And let them know they do matter in your life. And...listen to them when they speak. They may get loud, they may say hurtful words, but don't censor. I really hated when my son would stand up from sitting while I was discussing his latest "oh no", and close the door in my face. Ok. There's a sign he no longer wants to talk about it.
All you can do is try.
...land of the free. kind of...maybe...not so much.

Worcester Arenacross Practice Report
The 2013 AMSOIL Arenacross series has started in Worcester, Mass with not exactly the turnout expected in the Northeast. Returning champion Tyler Bowers topped qualifying times with teammate Zach Ames a close second. These two riders seem to be on a different level, and are riding with serious confidence. Only a few of the local New England pros have shown up, which is surprising considering the amount of fast guys in the area. The track is soft, which is developing ruts fast, causing the corners to break down quickly. The first practices had much faster times due to a triple out of a corner, but once the track broke down after the first session, not many riders were able to do it—resulting in much slower times. Lap times hovered around the low 20 seconds and the whoops seem to be smaller than normal—with there being six total whoops.
Other notable riders in practice that looked good were 2009 champion Jeff Gibson, Daniel Blair, Nathan Skaggs, Willy Browning, Kelly Smith and Sweden's Fredrick Noren. It will be interesting to see if anyone can give Bower's a run, but as of now, it looks like only Ames is on pace. No sign of former champion Chad Johnson or Tyler Villopoto, who apparently is still nursing a knee injury sustained overseas a month ago. Qualifying practice is over and now everyone is waiting for the show to start, beginning with heat races. The new changes to the format might stir things up with the gate picks for the last main event—no one knows if there will be a inverted start or the normal gate picks from qualifying. This is to be determined after the first main event. Look for the full race report tomorrow morning.

I should start off by saying that I have no sympathy for Bin Laden, nor am I sorry he's dead. He chose to live by the sword, and he died by it. Justice of the eye-for-an-eye biblical sort has been served. And I'm not a blanket opponent of the death penalty -- far from it, in fact. Osama's actions have resulted in thousands of deaths -- perhaps tens of thousands if the final tally were to be completed comprehensively. He certainly can be said to have deserved to die. Of course, in muslim eyes, Osama Bin Laden is now a martyr to the cause of islam. This is untrue, of course. He's the now-dead leader of a terrorist group that has used the defense of islam as an excuse to serve political ends: seeking to install a world-wide muslim theocracy.
But I find the notion of my country sending out "death squads" to commit premeditated murder is not something in which I find cause for pride or celebration. This leaves us on the moral level of right-wing dictators in South America and elsewhere around the world. We're so pleased with our military right now, perhaps without realizing the "might makes right" implications of our government's actions since 9/11/01. Note that I'm not condemning the warriors -- only the war. It's like in a movie, where if the crime is egregious enough, that justifies any response that might follow. Killing people in movies always seems to be a way to solve problems, but life is not a movie. Death only solves a small class of problems.
Moreover, this "justice" was accomplished without trial. At least the equally nasty dictator Saddam Hussein was given a trial before he was executed -- something neither Saddam nor Bin Laden ever gave their victims. In that sense, we remained on a higher moral plane than Saddam -- before we killed him. I suppose someone will argue that Osama was killed in a firefight, resisting capture. I suspect he was simply murdered but, of course, I have no way of knowing that one way or another. Who would want to give the bastard the forum for his hate that a trial would allow? But for a nation that professes to cherish law and order, summary execution seems rather inconsistent with those principles. People around the world see our actions as not being consistent with the principles we claim to cherish. Our hypocrisy reveals our lies to them, although many Americans are blind to that hypocrisy.
Another rationalization could be that this was an evil person who deserved to die. I'm reminded of the lines from the movie Lord of the Rings:
Many that live deserve death. Some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgment. Even the very wise cannot see all ends.There's little doubt in my mind that Osama deserved to die, perhaps many times over if that were possible. Does his death bring back the thousands of people killed as a result of his deeds? Of course not. The biblical god claims vengeance to be his, not belonging in the repertoire of humans [although the bible seemingly contradicts this principle, so choose your point of view]. Mere execution could seem to some to be letting this guy off too easy, of course. At the very least, we could've waterboarded him for a few weeks, right?
Nor can I say I'm particularly happy with our President claiming we're a nation "under god", and asking that his god bless America -- just which god is the one of whom the President speaks? Apparently, he's referring to the god of the bible. Not all of us in the USA believe in the biblical god invoked by the President. It seems the President can't be speaking on behalf of those who don't believe in his god. I guess that means he isn't speaking for me, in particular. Is not the god of the bible the same god (by a different name) claimed by islam? Can god possibly be on both sides of a war? It seems it must be so, since both sides are claiming him (which seems to happen a lot in history). In that case, what sort of god is this, playing both sides? Is this the sort of deity we choose to believe sanctions whatever we do in his name?
It seems we're willing to give up our liberties, sacrifice our youth in wars on foreign soil, and commit murder in the name of justice -- explain to me how these actions are different from the terrorists! One of the goals of the terrorists all along has been to demonstrate the moral bankruptcy of the USA. It seems they're succeeding. I've already discussed this elsewhere.
Recall how we all felt when we heard that Palestinians were celebrating in the streets after the attacks of 9/11/01? We were astonished that any people would actually be celebrating the death of innocent civilians. Osama Bin Laden was hardly an innocent civilian, but he had become a symbol of defiance for muslims around the world who feel persecuted (and they have the innocent civilian deaths to back up their claim). I can well imagine muslim youths lining up to volunteer to be suicide bombers, seeking vengeance for the death of Bin Laden. I'm sure they see our celebrations over the death of Bin Laden in the same way we saw those celebrations in Palestine. Vengeance begets vengeance, not justice. We may be pleased with ourselves for finally taking vengeance on him, but we likely won't be happy with what ensues.
People on both sides of this conflict between islam and the west have allowed themselves to be consumed by tribalism, spurred on by political "leaders" who have used religion and nationalism as tools to demonize the other side, justifying merciless jihad and vigilante "justice" in the process. The death of Osama Bin Laden will not cause terrorism to roll over and die. Our security has not been increased by this act of vengeance. The pain of our losses will not be eased by the absence of this terrible (but increasingly irrelevant) man on the Earth. I can see no cause for celebration, nor any end to the bloodshed and pain of this war on terrorism that employs terrorist tactics (murder and torture, among others) by Americans in retaliation.

Very Interesting.
From Jangi on the Web Case she/he claims that ECC works - but the status register might not...
So will await clarification of this with much interest.
The key problem that I see is we try to say "Here buy this ECC protected box, sorry we can't demonstrate that it works, just trust us that when that cosmic ray hits it will protect you ..." is not going to make for a good sales line. :-)
Thanks Austin - see what turns up next week.
This has gotten a few folks eye, so there are people actively looking at it right now.
Xilinx never asks anyone to just "trust us." We will always provide what is required for you to solve your problem, and meet your system requirements.
We are the ONLY company, in the world, to publish our FIT rates, soft,a nd hard, every quarter. And, we state the standards we used to get those numbers. Time after time, the numbers get (re-) verified by those who are not able to even "trust" that the published informatiojn is accurate and true. So, littel things like the ECC counter are of great importance to us, as we recognize our devices get designed into all kinds of safety critical systems, and I for one, do ride in high speed trains, and in airplanes (just two of the many places we get designed into).
I want to know (personally) where we are, and what we are doing. I enjoy talking to the ICE train engineer in Germany, the airplane engineer in Washington state, the 1 MW windmill systems engineer, etc. I like to know that all these systems are using proven hardware and IP to solve their problems, and keep me safe.
Thanks Austin - that's a pretty gun-ho attitude.
Love to see you guys deliver on that high bar.
At this stage we are thinking about building with ECC enabled and if we can
verify it later - then we can push that feature otherwise as long it is not actually
causing problems it's probably a hidden benefit. So please let me know
if we can verify this.
I will provides updates as they become available.
I am surprised that you haven't requested the soft error testing results.
Did you miss that offer?
I can't imagine that you are interested in the ECC_counter, and you do not care to know the soft error behavior of the device!
Ta. I think I missed that offer- yes you are right I am interested in soft error testing results and I will ask about them in the Web case. - BTW what are they?
Twice as good as the initial estimate,
Sorry, but I had to say that. We had estimates from Arm, and we came in at almost exactly half of their estimates.
That said, it depends on many factors, but using both cpus, both fpus, all peripherals, all caches, OCM memory we come in under a few hundred FIT (entire processor system). If you have a specific target to meet, by consulting your FAE, we can show you how to get it under your goal. All errors result in exceptions or interrupts. The silent data corruption (no exception, no interrupt) is less than about 15 FIT in our testing. All the details can be discussed with your FAE.
If you have any difficulties getting the info, let me know.
Does that mean that I need an interrupt to check the ECC status and counters? I was getting the same data abort exception (no parity) for the BRAM but only when I injected two or more errors. For a single, thus correctable, bit everything worked fine (including counters).
Please open a new thread with your problem,

Is your name Hogue?
Are your parents from Massachusetts or New England?
Then you might be a descendant of Jean-Marie Hogue?
There are probably thousands of Jean-Marie Hogue's descendants living in the United States and if they write to me they will have part of their family tree.
And it's all free…
We go back to Jean Hogue and Nicole Dubus who lived in France around 1650. Their son Pierre Hogue dit St-Malo is the ancestor of Jean-Marie Hogue. Pierre Hogue married Jeanne Théodore on November 10, 1676 in Montreal.
I know they had a son named Pierre Hogue dit Saint-Malo who married Jeanne Théodore. They are the ancestors of Jean-Marie Hogue, the father of Napoléon, Clémentine and of course Jean-Marie.
This is picture of Jean-Marie Hogue…
Click on the picture to view his file
Jean-Marie Hogue married Rosalie Léveillé on April 16, 1844 in Sainte-Anne-des-Plaines. The Léveillés were also called Truchons. Rosalie had a brother, Narcisse Truchon.
Narcisse Truchon dit Léveillé has a son named Arcade Léveillé. Arcade had a daughter, Hermine Léveillé… who married a widower:
Jean-Marie Hogue.
Hermine holding Yvette, with Corine beside her. Adonis is the little boy on the left.
I told you it was your lucky day, and you did not even have to buy the winning ticket…
So if you are a Hogue or know someone who is or was, then write a comment.

A Truly Awe-Inspiring Day
My girls ran their first 5K race. Yes. My morning beginner woman's run group were able to feel the camaraderie, feel the stress, the anxiety, the fear and then bask in the glow of the accomplishment that commenced at the Granite City 5K in St. Cloud this morning. It was incredible.
Only 7 short weeks ago we were walking 8 minutes and running 2 minutes x 3, three days a week. On Wednesday we walked 3 minutes and ran 11 minutes x 3 with a 10 minute walk at the end. They have progressed greatly.
As Laura and I were running along on Wednesday I told her I felt like Mother Hen, and all of these women running with me were my Chicks. She told me I should feel that way, that they are my Chicks! I love it.
This morning we met at the race 45 minutes before start time. We picked up our packets, or registered, I took photos, we laughed together and tried to rid ourselves of anxiety. It was fabulous. Some of the girls had children, spouses and friends to cheer them on. How delightful!!
Heidi's son, Peter, an 8th grader, would be running the race, too.
I was so proud of them for being here!
The morning was beautiful, the sun was shining, the venue was a park and the course would consist of trail; some asphalt, some grass, some dirt. Wow! I had no idea this would be a trail race.
We lined up near the back of the pack. My plan was to run ahead with my camera so I could photo each friend cross the finish line. I hoped my tired legs would allow me to run a 5K fast enough to get to the finish line before everyone else.
BANG! Went the gun, we were off. The course was cool. Three 1 mile loops through different surfaces, through woods and open area. A volunteer called out our mile splits, there was water on the course. I kept going back and forth with another woman that I was trying to beat. I finally caught her but on the last .25 mile she passed me. I didn't have enough to pass her back up!
Across the finish line, grab a water and get my camera out of the case. Here they come! I was able to photo everyone crossing the finish line. It was wonderful.
Lots of hugs, sweat, tears and laughs. They said they wouldn't have been there if I hadn't had this class. They thanked me. I thanked them. I am SO thankful for them.
During the award ceremony Peter placed in the teenage division and I took 2nd woman for 40-49. I ran a 24:56. During the drawings Peter again won..this time a $100 certificate to Scheel Sports and Kim won a $30 certificate to Timberlodge Steak House! Nice.
It wasn't all about the race. It was about these women honoring themselves. To give themselves an hour 3x a week..that isn't too much to ask of oneself! We get so busy, we put our families first, we put our employers first, we put the darn dog first. These women have given themselves an hour a week to come and run with other women. Stacey gets a sitter, Laura and Breanna drive an hour to Big Lake for the class, they are all doing this for themselves, nobody else. They are growing from it, they are respecting themselves because they are doing this for themselves. They have stuck with an exercise program for 7 weeks..maybe for the first time in their lives. They are honoring themselves and they feel pride in that.
When you begin to set goals and you begin to reach those goals you begin to believe in yourself. When you believe in yourself, oh boy, big things will happen. Really.
They didn't know that they could be runners, but something drew them to my running class. Some struggled the first few weeks, and some of us continue to struggle and that is OK! They are there to run, week after week, because they have committed to do this and for that they feel pride in themselves.
They know that we are counting on them to show up. They know that they will progress, that they will make it farther and farther, that they can finish up the hour session, that it will come easier as time goes on, that they might someday even enjoy running!
I am in awe of them all. They have all stepped out of their comfort zone and grown in many many ways from it.
I feel honored to have had a part in their day today.
I am so proud of them. What a wonderful wonderful group of women!

I am very proud for those women and very happy for you. I remember how you started coaching them:) Way to go! And on Leadville - it'll be good. Glad you're going. It's different. Hope pass is a Bear. I suggest going over it both ways once before. Have fun. I will "see" you on the finishing line:)
- keith said...
You're awesome. That's all I ever have to say to you...nice job, coach!
Very, very cool! Thanks for sharing that! Way to "Chicks"!!!
- Kel said...
Julie, you're a natural. Do you have more coaching classes starting up?
- Julie B said...
Thanks, and they are awesome! Yes, Kel, I will offer more classes at the beginning of September. I am also offering online training.
I sit here reading this blog entry with tears dripping down on my Granite City 5K t-shirt!! I am one of your very grateful, proud and happy "chicks". I am a runner! At least well on my way to being a real one! Thanks to you, Julie, and your encouragement, your knowledge, your kindness! You have been so instrumental in curbing my doubts about myself. And to all or any wanna be's out there who think for some reason they can't, just feel the fear and do it anyway!! Even if you are fat, 42, have herniated disks in your back - it can be done!!
Thank you Julie!! God Bless!!
Love- one of your chicks, Carol
- Carl Gammon said...
What a great story. I can feel the pride and happiness in every word.
- Matthew Patten said...
I would have figured you would hit the lap button on your watch instead of the stop button!
Congrats to you and "the chicks". Great story, great leadership. Maybe soon they will be wearing gaiters.
Look forward to hearing about how you tore up Leadville.
See you at Superior.

If you're interested in being a guest blogger, thank you! I really appreciate it :) The post can be about anything. Here are some ideas to get the ideas going:mail you recently sent/received, a favorite shop in your town, a diy project, a product review, some recent, random photos, special vacation spot.
Just because it's something I haven't blogged about (like a recipe for example) doesn't mean I wouldn't be open to it.
If you have an idea but aren't sure if it will fit just send me an email to discuss it.
It's definitely ok to link/talk about your blog shop but it's pretty obvious if the post is just about personal promotion, so be conscious of that.
Some guidelines-
Please submit well written posts-they don't need to be long but no spelling or gramatical errors.
Include photos- make sure they are in focus and beautiful. If you're using someone else's photos be sure to include credit/links.
Posts will be reviewed before publishing and full credit will be given to the author.
You can submit at any time, but I do need it at least a week before it's set to be published.
You can check out some of my past guest blogger posts here:

Congressional Partisanship May Delay Funding for Israel's Iron Dome Missile Defense System
It would be tough to find anybody in Congress, from either party, opposed to sending Israel more money for its Iron Dome air defense system, which has been instrumental in protecting the country from rockets fired by Hamas. But the additional $225 million Israel has requested for the anti-rocket system could be held up until September, as the parties spar over how Congress should distribute the money.
Senate appropriators have inserted the $225 million for the Iron Dome into their version of a $3.6 billion emergency supplemental spending bill that would primarily address the crisis of unaccompanied migrant children entering the United States from Central America.
But Republicans in both chambers are balking at that $3.6 billion legislation and think the Iron Dome funding should be handled separately from the unrelated, and politically fraught, child migrant issue.
In a bid to get strong backing from their party, House Republicans included no money for Iron Dome in their bare-bones supplemental, which focuses solely on the border crisis and includes immigration policy changes designed to win as much right-wing GOP support as possible.
The House could address the Iron Dome in a stand-alone bill, or as part of an anticipated continuing resolution in September to keep the government running for a few more months. But there is strong resistance in the House to using the supplemental as a vehicle for the appropriation for Israel.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., is pushing for stand-alone legislation for the Iron Dome, stressing that Republicans are united in their support for Israel. McConnell's plan would allow Republicans to show their support for Israel even if they remain at odds with Senate Democrats over their approach to addressing the immigration crisis.
"We hope our friends on the other side will join us in coming to a sensible, bipartisan solution that can be passed quickly," McConnell said in a floor speech last week. "As most senators know, the Iron Dome missile defense system has played a critical role in defending Israel's population from the rocket attacks launched by Hamas from within the Gaza Strip."
Arizona Sen. John McCain, a senior Republican on the Armed Services Committee, said he thinks the Iron Dome funding would sail through the chamber on its own.
"We could take up $225 million on the floor of the Senate by unanimous consent today," he said last week. "It would pass without objection."
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., hinted Monday that the chamber could ultimately consider the Iron Dome separately from the migrant children funding, even as he filed cloture on the emergency supplemental with the funding for Israel intact, lining up a procedural vote for Wednesday. If the Senate did approve the Iron Dome funding separately from the migrant supplemental in the coming days, a move that seemed to be gaining traction on Tuesday, the House could follow suit, potentially paving the way for approval of the funding before the recess.
The Iron Dome, which was developed by Israel, has been paid for mostly by the United States. Indeed, both the Senate Appropriations Defense spending bill and the House-passed companion measure (HR 4870) would provide $351 million for it in fiscal 2015, nearly doubling the administration's request.
The $225 million in the supplemental, which has been requested by Israel, would be in addition to that fiscal 2015 funding. If the two pending additional tranches of spending were enacted, they would bring to $1.28 billion the total of U.S. appropriations for the system.
The White House did not include the Iron Dome spending in its request for the supplemental. But Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel supports the appropriation.
"The government of Israel has requested $225 million in additional U.S. funding for Iron Dome to accelerate production of Iron Dome components in Israel in order to maintain adequate stockpiles," Hagel recently wrote to congressional leaders. "The Department of Defense has reviewed and supports this urgent request."
Given the urgent need for the missile defenses, Hagel also requested Congress not hold the supplemental spending to the terms of an agreement in March that would require more work on the Iron Dome program be done in the United States. The vast majority of the work on the program has been done in Israel.
"Israel will continue to develop co-production of Iron Dome components in the United States" per the March agreement, Hagel wrote. "However, Israel assesses that it will take another two to three years to reach full production capacity in the United States, which would not address Israel's current shortfall."
Lawmakers have long felt the United States needs to play more of a role in — and see benefits from — the Iron Dome program. Massachusetts-based Raytheon Co. would benefit most from domestic Iron Dome production.
Most recently, Senate appropriators included language in their report on the defense spending bill that would hold back half of the fiscal 2015 funding for Iron Dome until the Israeli Missile Defense Organization provides more information on the program, including a report documenting the transfer from Israeli industry to U.S. companies of all technical data packages required for U.S. production of Iron Dome.
In their version of the supplemental, Senate Democrats would provide some relief from that agreement, but it is unclear how lawmakers would handle the issue in any sort of a compromise measure.

So you are getting married abroad? You may now be wondering about that all important wedding gown and how best to take it with you to your wedding destination. This article is based on industry knowledge and first hand tales of brides that we have dealt with over the years.
Specialist wedding gown cleaning is often carried out on dresses prior to going away to your wedding destination. Sometimes, brides will buy a secondhand dress and have it cleaned first. If this is you then it is probably easier to have a professional wedding dress cleaning company box it up for you in a wedding travel box. This type of box is most suitable for travel with your dress and also is made from PH neutral card and contains acid free tissue. The whole purpose of this box is that your gown will stay with you at all times on-board the aircraft.
If you have purchased a brand new dress from a wedding gown shop then using the same type of box is your best option also. The wedding gown shop should be more than happy to pack your dress for you.
After all alterations have been carried out and you have had your final fitting at the bridal store, ask them to pack the dress for you. In a box you supply to them or they may be able to sell you a wedding travel box directly.
There are several on-line companies that sell travel boxes but please always ask for PH Neutral card (heavy) and acid free tissue for packaging the dress. Please note that in general the cheaper boxes also do not have a thick corded carrying handle but a plastic handle that pushes into the box thus making it unsuitable to store your dress in afterwards.
If you have purchased the dress and have it at home then it is recommended using a wedding dress travel box and packing the wedding dress yourself.
Step 1. Layer the acid free tissue in the bottom of the box and then around the edges.
Step 2. Try to estimate the number of folds required to get the dress into the box with the bodice facing upwards on the last fold.
Step 3. Lay the train in the bottom of the box then place tissue over and tuck in tightly at the sides
Step 4. Fold the dress over and press down firmly now lay more tissue over this folded layer tucking in tightly at the sides.

– Don't try to pack the hoops and under skirt into the travel box.
– Don't panic if your dress looks squashed – most wedding destinations will have steamers to steam the wedding dress on arrival.
– Always check with your airline the maximum size of hand luggage allowed on board the aircraft.
– Wedding dress travel boxes come in many sizes and colors.
– Unpack your wedding dress as soon as possible to avoid bad creases setting in.
– Some airlines do allow the wedding dress on board in the cabin in the gown bag hanging compartment but check with your airline!
– DO NOT put your precious dress in your suit case – It may not arrive with you and liquids can ruin and damage your dress if they leak in the hold of the aircraft.
– If you MUST put the wedding dress into a suitcase and into the hold of the aircraft then please make sure you cover the whole dress with a strong water tight plastic bag.
Most Wedding Travel Boxes come with a cord handle instead of ribbon and lace that holds the lid in place as you carry. These sturdy boxes protect the dress from any untoward accidents whilst traveling, and can be used after the day for storing the wedding dress in.
The standard size wedding dress travel box dimensions are as follows:
Wedding Travel Maxi: 35 x 55 x 20 cm (deep) – The Travel Maxi provides the maximum space allowed in the overhead lockers, to fit within the hand luggage dimensions requested by major airlines. Please check with your airline. The depth allows for a fuller skirt and veil.
Flying with Thomas Cook? Thomas Cook has restricted hand luggage of 42 x 27 x 22 cm, which is not the ideal shape for a wedding dress, but there is a Wedding Travel Slim Box that is especially for Thomas Cook flights.

For years I used to dream of recreating this beef dish. This is the one we put as a topping on our Beef Mami (Beef Noodle Soup). It can be served as well on a bed of noodles without soup. It is also known as Beef Flank in Chinese restaurants. While living in Hong Kong, we would often speculate on the ingredients used whenever we have one from a restaurant or a hawker. It remained a dream until I stared long enough on one of the sections of the Chopsticks Recipes series cookbook (titled Quick Meals authored by Cecilia Au-Yeung). Suddenly I realised it was the one I've been searching for! I test cooked it and indeed it was the one! Eureka!
A tip on the recipe, try to buy bean paste/sauce where all the beans are pureed well. The one available to me has lots of whole beans in it and it's hard to mash before cooking since the beans are still quite firm. It's hard to do it after/during cooking as well because the pesky little beans are hard to catch and really so much trouble. So get the bean paste that's well mashed up.
Try to keep the ginger in one or several big lumps so it's easier to fish them out of the sauce for serving. I'm actually tempted to put all the spices in a tied up muslin bag to save me from straining the sauce. Maybe I'll do just that one of these days.
Braised Brisket of Beef
500 g stewing cuts of beef (brisket, chuck, shin, etc.) - cut into chunks
2 pcs star anise
1 square inch fresh ginger - peeled and mashed/sliced
1 square inch dried tangerine (or orange) peel [optional]
2 Tbsp cooking oil
5 cups boiling water (approximate)
1 tsp garlic - minced
2 tsp rice wine or dry sherry
1/4 cup ground bean paste/sauce
1 Tbsp rice wine or dry sherry
1/4 tsp salt
2 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp dark soy sauce
a pinch of pepper
*Gravy Mix:
1 tsp cornflour
1 Tbsp water
1 tsp sesame oil
- (Optional) Soak tangerine peel in warm water until soft.
- Wash and place brisket in a pressure cooker. Pour enough water to cover the brisket. Cover and pressure cook for 15 minutes.
- Remove beef and stock/sauce from the pressure cooker. Separate the beef from the stock and set aside.
- Heat the oil in medium heat in the pressure cooker pot and sauté the minced garlic, ginger, and ground bean paste until aromatic.
- Add the beef and stir fry for 2 minutes. Sprinkle wine. Stir fry for a few seconds.
- Strain the beef sauce (beef stock where the beef was cooked) into the pot. Add star anises, and tangerine peel (if using). Cover pressure cooker and bring to boil. Lower heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
- By this time the beef should be tender. Turn off heat and remove the lid once the pressure cooker has cooled down sufficiently.
- Stir in the seasoning and simmer for a further 5 minutes.
- Add gravy mix. Simmer for 2 minutes or until thick.
- Sometimes I do not pre-boil the beef. So I skip procedure nos. 2, 3, & 7 and soften the meat by simmering for a long time with the seasoning in a regular pot or through a crockpot/slow cooker.
- We mainly use the above recipe for beef mami. Just cook some egg noodles and put some chicken broth/stock, add the beef brisket and its sauce, then sprinkle some chopped green onions on top.

Pletscher family
Pletscher (Plätscher), a Mennonite family of Swiss descent, living since the last decades of the 17th century in the Palatinate, Germany. Jakob Plätscher was a preacher at Immelhausen in Baden from 1761, and Heinrich Plätscher a preacher at Eppstein near Frankenthal from 1764, both serving until after 1802. This Heinrich Plätscher was married to Katharina Brenneman; they lived at Friedelsheim. Their son Johannes with his family emigrated from Friedelsheim to the United States in 1833. Other relatives moved from Friedelsheim to America in 1841-1855. The martyrs Jacob and Melchior Platzer may have belonged to this family. A Pletscher family migrated from Schleitheim to the Palatinate ca. 1650.

Welcome to PWInsider.com's live, ongoing coverage of the 2012 WWE Hell in A Cell PPV from Atlanta, GA at the Phillips Arena!
YouTube Pre-Game Show
We opened with a video piece recapping the AJ Lee-John Cena allegations.
Michael Cole interviewed John Cena about the allegations. Cena said he wants to see what Ryback can do tonight inside Hell in A Cell.
They had Dolph Ziggler sent a Tout, which led to Cena saying he came to fight and challenged Ziggler to come and face him. He asked Ziggler to come out and prove he was the only "real man left." At first Ziggler didn't come out, but then his music hit and out came Vickie Guerrero.
Guerrero distracted Cena, allowing Ziggler to try and attack Cena from behind but Cena caught him and clotheslined Ziggler out of the ring. They teased they may wrestle later on the PPV since Vickie has power to make the matches. Should be interesting to see if they add that to the show, but you would think if they are, they will announce it before they go off the air to push last minute buys.
They showed a World title preview.
World champion Sheamus cut a quick promo backstage, saying he has a Brogue Kick with Big Show's name on it. Nothing major.
They showed a WWE title preview. Big night for Ryback!
They had a great video opening for the PPV.
Randy Orton vs. Alberto Del Rio
They locked up and Orton took the early control with an uppercut and several shots in the corner. He tossed Alberto to the outside and caught him with a clothesline on the floor. Orton slammed Del Rio into the table and then into the ringpost.
Orton tossed Alberto back into the ring and began nailing him with the Garvin Stomp. Orton continued working over Del Rio in the corner. Del Rio tossed him over the top but he landed on his feet on the apron. Ricardo tried to distract Orton, allowing Del Rio to smash Orton's arm over the turnbuckle post.
Del Rio began focusing on Orton's arm, softening him up for the rolling cross armbreaker. Orton fought back in the corner but Del Rio hung over the ropes, pulling on the left arm. Alberto then sent Orton into the corner shoulder-first.
Orton was worked over and tried to roll up Del Rio for a near fall. Del Rio broke free and continued focusing on Orton's arm, locking on a submission. Orton began firing with a series of rights in an attempt to break free but was cut off. Del Rio maneuvered him towards the ropes and hung himself upside down to force more pressure on his arbar. He broke the hold due to the referee's count, allowing Orton to dump him to the floor.
Alberto returned with Orton hitting some offense, only to be caught with the cross armbreaker out of a powerslam attempt. Orton made it to the ropes to break the hold. Orton caught Del Rio for another near fall. Del Rio rolled to the outside but was caught and pulled into the ring for the hanging DDT. Del Rio escaped and nailed a Stun Gun on Orton.
Alberto began pounding on the mat to mock Orton. He went for an RKO but Orton sent him to the outside, then nailed the hanging DDT off the ropes. Now Orton was setting up for the RKO but his arm was hurting when he pounded the mat.
Orton went for the RKO but Alberto countered it with a backstabber for a near fall. Orton shocked him with a powerslam for a two count. Orton placed Del Rio on the top but was shoved down. He was caught up in the ropes. Alberto came off with a double stomp to the chest for another two count.
Orton made a comeback but was captured with a cross armbreaker. Orton tried to fight it off but Del Rio sunk the move in in the center of the ring. Orton turned it into a pinning combination for a two count.
Del Rio charged Orton, who was in the corner for the leaping enziguiri. Orton ducked and caught Del Rio with the RKO as he twisted in the air. Orton scored the pin.
Your winner, Randy Orton!
Good back and forth opener to start the show. Both looked really good and they told a nice story in the ring. The finish was real good. Entertaining stuff.
Josh Mathews interviewed Vickie Guerrero about the AJ Lee scandal. She said it was clear that AJ and John Cena had an affair and she had the pictures to prove it. She said she received them from an anonymous source and would reveal them. Paul Heyman showed up and said that he hoped that after a few days to consider, she would reconsider putting WWE champion CM Punk inside Hell in A Cell. Guerrero said she isn't changing the match. She said that it's obvious Punk is scared of Ryback. Heyman got angry and screamed that Punk isn't afraid of the Boogeyman, Frankenstein, Dracula or Ryback. Well, he might be afraid of wrestling Boogeyman! He said that he's heard Guerrero is doing a good job so maybe she doesn't want to mess that up.
WWE Tag Team champions Kane & Daniel Bryan vs. Damien Sandow & Cody Rhodes
Sandow cut a promo as the challengers came to the ring. He said that with all the bickering in politics, there is one thing everyone will soon agree on - that he and Rhodes are the Tag Team champions. They said it in unison to mock the champions.
Sandow and Bryan started and Bryan caught him with a series of kicks in the corner. Bryan leapfrogged Sandow several times before nailing a knee to the mid-section.
Kane tagged in and pulled in Rhodes, nailing several big power moves. Kane worked over his arm and nailed a big right hand in the corner. He nailed another, sending Rhodes down. Kane clotheslined Rhodes into the corner and tagged in Bryan.
Bryan began focusing on Rhodes' arm, kicking the elbow. He beat Rhodes down with several elbows in the corner and tagged back out to Kane. Rhodes fired back and ducked a Kane shot while making a tag to Sandow. Sandow nailed a chop block on Kane. The challengers worked him over. Kane finally nailed Sandow and tagged in Bryan.
Bryan cleaned house with a series of kicks in the corner. He was whipped into the corner and went up and over with a moonsault over Sandow and landed on his feet. He rebounded off the ropes with a nice clothesline. Rhodes got involved so Bryan dispatched him too and nailed a tope through the ropes on Sandow.
Rhodes nailed him on the floor and tossed Bryan back into the ring. Sandow covered him for a two count. Rhodes tagged in and worked over Bryan with a running knee to the gut. The challengers took turns, picking apart Bryan for a series of near falls.
Bryan fought back and went for the No Lock on Sandow, who tried to fight it off. Bryan ran him into the turnbuckles with a drop toehold. Kane called for Bryan who finally mad the hot tag.
Kane cleaned house on Rhodes, including a high backdrop. He nailed a clothesline into the corner and nailed sideslam for a two count. Michael Cole called it a Sidewalk Slam. Oops. Kane went to the top but Sandow distracted him and Rhodes climbed up to try and stop him. Kane knocked him off and nailed a flying clothesline off the top.
Bryan tagged himself in, which led to the champions arguing. Sandow dragged Kane out of the ring. Bryan backdropped a charging Rhodes over the top onto Kane on the floor. Bryan went for a diving knee off the apron but Rhodes moved out of the way and Kane was nailed. The champions began arguing on the floor. The challengers attacked Kane on the floor and tossed Bryan back in.
Bryan was nailed with the CrossRhodes for a near fall but Kane broke up the pinfall. He attacked Sandow and then continued working over Rhodes in the corner despite the five count. The referee called for the bell.
Your winners by DQ, Damien Sandow & Cody Rhodes!
The match was OK but nothing out of the ordinary. The finish didn't help that either. The work was fine but nothing you'd go out of your way to see.
The champions argued after the match.
Backstage, Josh Mathews interviewed The Miz. He said that with Kofi Kingston as the Intercontinental champion, the bar has been lowered and mediocrity has been accepted as normal. This would leave to society crumbling. He said some people prepare for Doomsday and he does it by being awesome. He said he has to go win the title back in order to save the world. Uh, OK.
WWE Intercontinental championship Kofi Kingston vs. The Miz.
They had a hot back and forth early but Miz couldn't get the better on Kingston so he walked around outside angry. When they returned, Kingston took down Miz and tossed him over the top to the floor. They are claiming Miz brought out something in Kingston to make him more aggressive.
On the floor, Miz tried to toss Kingston into the stairs but Kingston dove over them and rolled through. He charged Miz but was kicked in the face. That was a play off of what they did on Main Event recently.
Back in the ring, Miz wore down Kingston with a side chinlock. Miz cut him off and set up for a charge in the corner. Kingston clotheslined Miz but was down and out trying to recover. They are working a really hard, physical pace.
Kingston nailed a series of chops and a dropkick on Miz. He nailed the Boom Drop for a two count. Kingston set up for Trouble in Paradise but Miz rolled out of the ring to the floor. Kingston followed him to the floor. Miz returned to the ring and tried to kick Kingston as he returned to the ring but was caught with a rollup and a high cross bodyblock for a two count.
Kingston went for the SOS but Miz went for a Skull Crushing Finale. Kingston turned it back into an SOS for another near fall. Kingston, who was near the ropes, went to kick off Miz as he charged. Miz grabbed his leg and snapped it. It wasn't pretty but it was effective.
Miz began working on Kingston's leg with the idea of grounding his offense. He pulled off Kingston's kickpads, his kneepad and wrestling boot. Miz tied up his leg in the ropes to work it over. Kingston was pulled off the ropes and turned into a Boston Crab. Kingston tried to fight his way to the ropes but was pulled back into the center of the ring just as his fingers reached the ropes.
Kingston turned it into a reversal (didn't look good) for a two count. Miz kicked him off but couldn't get a three count. Kingston caught him with a forward roll for a two count. Miz went for the Finale but Kingston reversed. Miz went for it again but was sent out of the ring. When he returned, Kingston nailed Trouble in Paradise with his other leg and scored the pin.
Your winner and still Intercontinental champion, Kofi Kingston!
Good match. It wasn't perfect all the way through but they had a nice story and some good exchanges as well.
First hour was decent. Best match so far was easily the opener.
Kingston was interviewed after the match. He said Miz brought The Wildcat out of him and he feels re-energized. He said he was proud to be the fans' champion.
Wrestlemania promo. With tickets on sale soon, you know we'll see a lot more of these in the next few weeks.

It's every scientist's dream to travel to a remote, unexplored place looking for as many new and interesting species as they can find. This was a dream come true for the 15 Mozambican and international scientists, led by Piotr Naskrecki, who spent 3 weeks in the Cheringoma Plateau of Gorongosa National Parkin Mozambique. There couldn't have been a more adventurous setting for this expedition than the sheer limestone cliffs, studded with deep caves, cascading down to the lush riverine forest and rushing streams of the gorges below. The scientists' mission was to collect and record information on the species of this region to help park managers understand and protect Gorongosa's biodiversity.
In total, the team recorded over 1,200 species (and counting) including 182 bird species, 54 mammal species, 47 reptile species, 33 frog species, over 100 antspecies, and 320 plant species. Some of the notable finds on the survey were the "Chewbacca Bat", named after the Star Wars character; a strange, cave-dwelling frog that is possibly new to science; an ant that is incapable of walking on flat surfaces; a bombardier beetle that defends itself by producing small explosions from its abdomen; and several katydids that are new to science.
The scientists used a variety of methods on the survey including pitfall traps, mist nets, pheromone traps, remote cameras, and ultrasonic sound detectors. They explored uncharted territory in Gorongosa, descending into caves in deep limestone gorges, and ascending the tall canopies of trees using advanced tree climbing and rappelling techniques.
This was the first comprehensive biodiversity survey in the history of this 4,000sqkm protected area, and its results will help guide the restoration effort to reverse biodiversity losses suffered by the park during the armed conflicts that devastated Mozambique from 1975 until 1992. By understanding what species exist in Gorongosa, park management can make better decisions about how to protect the park's biodiversity and its rare and threatened species.
The Wilson Biodiversity Laboratory, in honor of E.O. Wilson's support, is a modern science laboratory scheduled to open in Gorongosa soon. Specimens collected during the survey will form the foundation of a biological research collection that will be housed in the lab. And information collected by the survey's scientists will contribute to the park's biodiversity database, a tool that helps manage and protect its natural resources.
