Grocery Shopping with Fuchsia Dunlop in Chinatown, NYC
"You have so much more to buy here than we do in London!"
It's the third time in half an hour that Fuchsia Dunlop, cook, writer, and scholar of Chinese food, has said this on our shopping trip through Chinatown. We haven't seen anyone so delighted by the neighborhood since Susan Feniger tucked into some curbside cheung fun.
The shopkeepers seem pretty excited too—it's not every day a tall white person in an impressive fur hat starts asking them questions in fluent Chinese. "Where'd you learn to speak so well?" they ask. Fuchsia gets this question a lot.
We're here on Mott Street because, love Chinese cuisine though we do, we don't cook it as much as we'd like. Okay, Kenji does, but the rest of us not so much. The gap is more mental than anything: with good ingredients in easy reach and no shortage of tips to get us cooking, we don't have much of an excuse.
That's the case Fuchsia makes in her new book, Every Grain of Rice, which we featured recipes from last week. It's a home cook's cookbook, and it shows how with some good produce, a decent pantry, and some basic technique, Chinese cooking is no harder or more foreign than making a plate of pasta or building a salad.
So when Fuchsia wanted to spend some time with us, we put her to work, taking her on a walk through Chinatown while she gave us a closer look at the produce and pantry goods we pass every day.
Every Grain of Rice begins with a list of pantry basics to start cooking Chinese food yourself. Many are the usual suspects: light and dark soy sauce, rice vinegar and wine, sesame and chili oil, aromatics like ginger and spices like Sichuan peppercorn. (Notably absent: oyster sauce—Fuchsia thinks most commonly available brands are more MSG and sugar than anything else.)
Less common, and a little harder to find, are her "magic ingredients," super-savory items like fermented soy beans, chili bean paste, preserved vegetables, and dried shrimp. "Getting to know these magic ingredients is the key to making largely vegetarian ingredients taste so delicious," she says. Plenty of Chinese dishes are mostly vegetables—stir fries and braises, salads and eggs, cold appetizers—amplified with just a little meat, pickles, or flavorful nubs of dried fish. Learn what those magic ingredients are—and how to cook with them—and Chinese food gets a whole lot more approachable to cook at home.
You can find most of these ingredients at large groceries like New York Mart, but the street stalls that weave through Chinatown also have an impressive selection of esoteric ingredients. If you ever wanted to know more about all those dried fish and mushrooms but were put off by a language barrier, consider this a helping hand.
Basic Ingredients
- Shaoxing rice wine
- Toasted Sesame Oil
- Soy Sauce or Tamari
- Chinkiang Black Vinegar
- Lee Kum Kee Chili Bean Paste
- Cassia Bark
- Dried Black Soy Beans
- Green Garlic

Our shopping trip sticks to Mott Street, focusing on New York Mart and the nearby street stalls you'll find just below Grand Street. Take a tour with us for a look at Fuchsia's pantry essentials and special ingredients.

| 8.9°C Belfast
Downing Street has insisted that the race for European Commission president remains open, after former Luxembourg PM Jean-Claude Juncker announced that he was "more confident than ever" that he will land the job.
Federalist Mr Juncker made his prediction in a message on Twitter just days after Prime Minister David Cameron made clear his opposition to his appointment.
Meanwhile, Mr Cameron's spokesman declined to comment on speculation that IMF chief Christine Lagarde was being touted for the job, which is generally offered to a candidate able to secure consensus support from leaders of the EU's 28 member states meeting in the European Council.
An unconfirmed report by news agency Reuters claimed that German chancellor Angela Merkel privately raised with French president Francois Hollande the possibility that he might put Ms Lagarde's name forward.
Mr Cameron has reportedly clashed with Mrs Merkel over her support for Mr Juncker, whose candidacy is backed by the European People's Party (EPP) grouping to which her CDU party belongs in the European Parliament.
But Downing Street has declined to say which candidate would have the PM's support, insisting that his focus is on ensuring that the new European Commission, which comes into office in October, has the right priorities to restore EU competitiveness and cut red tape.
At a European Council summit in Brussels last week, Mr Cameron warned that the new Commission president must be someone willing to confront perceptions that Europe had become "too big, too bossy and too interfering" in the wake of the success of anti-EU parties in European elections across the continent.
But Mr Juncker has received indications of support from a number of European leaders, including Mrs Merkel, and today tweeted: " I am more confident than ever that I will be the next European Commission President."
Responding to the message, Mr Cameron's official spokesman said: "In terms of candidacies and the like, the Prime Minister's view has not changed.
"People will put themselves forward for senior roles. I don't think there's anything to be surprised about around that. But in terms of the process, it is the one that the European Council was discussing last week. There is a role for Herman van Rompuy, the president of the European Council, to undertake the consultations that are under way."
The PM, who last night spoke to Spanish premier Mariano Rajoy by telephone about the upcoming appointment, was not voicing public support for any individual at this stage, said the spokesman.
Asked whether he was pleased to see the name of Ms Lagarde - a former French finance minister - being discussed, the spokesman said: "His approach is to focus on the priorities for the European Commission and for there to be candidates who, as he said in Newark earlier this week, 'get that'.
"The key is that we have a European Commission going forward that is focused on the importance of reform. That is the thrust of the approach he is going to continue to take."
Mr Cameron's approach appears to have won backing from former EU trade commissioner and Labour peer Lord Mandelson, who said it was "reasonable" for the Prime Minister to demand that a range of candidates are considered.
Lord Mandelson said Mr Juncker was qualified for the job but insisted a "wider and informed choice" of candidates must be drawn up.
He told BBC Radio 4's Today programme: "He may or may not be the nightmare candidate. I'm saying that he should be considered among others.
"I think it is reasonable that the Prime Minister argues for making an informed choice from a range of candidates."
Lord Mandelson backed Ms Lagarde or Pascal Lamy, former director general of the World Trade Organisation, for the top job.
But he dismissed suggestions that former prime minister Tony Blair could vie for the post.
"Tony has ruled himself out for any top job," he said.
" He's been pretty clear in saying he wants the best candidate for the job, he doesn't want the job for himself."
Lord Mandelson said it was a "shame" that Mr Blair had been lost to national politics but his interventions were " acute " and "always worth listening to".
"I'm sure Tony Blair will have many contributions yet to make."

Fluid Science Laboratory
Fluid physics research facility in Columbus
The Fluid Science Laboratory is a multi-user facility to study the dynamics of fluids in the absence of gravity. This allows investigations on fluid dynamic effects, phenomena that are normally masked by gravity driven convection, sedimentation, stratification and fluid static pressure. These effects include diffusion-controlled heat and mass transfer in crystallisation processes, interfacial mass exchange, simulation of geophysical fluid flows, emulsion stability and more.
Accommodation and Transport
The Fluid Science Laboratory is housed in the European Columbus laboratory. Prepared Experiment Containers are transported separately by space ferries such as the European Automated Transfer Vehicle or Russian Progress vehicles.
Operational concept
An Experiment Container is used for each experiment or experiment Category, and is removed from on-board storage and inserted into the Central Experiment Modules drawer by an astronaut. The Experiment Container is then cycled through an experiment and diagnostics calibration processing prior to starting the experiment.
Each Experiment Container has a typical mass of around 25 kg, with a maximum of 40 kg, and standard dimensions of 400 x 270 x 280 mm. The fluid cell assembly (including the process stimuli and control electronics) are accommodated within this volume. An Experiment Container may also be equipped with dedicated experiment diagnostics to complement the standard diagnostics provided by the Fluid Science Laboratory itself.
The control concept allows alternative modes of operation consisting of fully automatic, semi-automatic and fully interactive experiment processing (step-by-step command keying by a member of the crew). All these modes may be initiated either by the flight crew or from the ground in almost real-time).
Utilisation scenario
The Facility Responsible Centre for the Fluid Science Laboratory, has the overall responsibility to operate the facility according to the needs of individual Experiment Container Providers. The individual principle investigators can have own User Home Bases from where they can monitor the processing of their experiments.
The Fluid Science Laboratory was launched aboard the Space Shuttle accommodated within the Columbus laboratory on 7 February 2008. Since then the facility is accessible to the scientific community.
A facility like Fluid Science Lab, which can be used over and over again with different Experiment Containers, allows shorter individual mission preparation times and contributes to a faster scientific development in the specific field.

Thanks John,
Most puppies I've tried detect the PCI card so I'll give OS4mini another try since I liked it so much.

Post subject: Kernel panic - Out of memory
Subject description: Less than 256mb RAM
I tried this OS on my laptop. Apart from the sound and wifi not working, I'm in love with it. I believe it's because newer hardware is not supported.
Now coming to the point, I want to install Legacy on an old Pentium 3 800 Mhz 256MB RAM computer. I tried installing it twice after rewriting the ISO to the flash drive but with no gain. After a lot of searching, I figured out that there is a bug which makes the files copy to the RAM and due to limitations, it overrides. I have a few RAMs lying around but none of them are compatible with this motherboard.
Has the bug been fixed?
Btw, I believe this is an amazing OS but it's community hasn't developed yet. It took me quite some time to know what the problem was.

Post subject: Solution to your problem
Hi, here is John Biles solution to your problem about installation. Hope it helps, Rob
Hello slimhunter,
On some computers this has been a long standing problem which originates from the creator of Puppy (Barry K) belief that Puppy would aways be under 256mb's in size. When Developers like me come a long and increase the size of the iso above 256mb's his script or file decides to try and load the sfs file in to ram that's not big enough anyway. In the past I've posted for advice on this which never ended with a solution except one!
If you can pull out some RAM so you only have 128mb's Legacy OS 4 Mini will run off the CD and allow a full Hard Drive install. I use this trick all the time. Once Legacy OS 4 Mini is installed, replace the RAM and away you go.

You see, that's the problem. I don't have a compatible RAM.
Isn't there a way to create a swap partition on the flash drive which the system uses instead of actual RAM? Now that would be great.

Usman55, let me see if I can rephrase what oligin10 is saying. You don't need to ADD memory, but to temporarily remove some of it. Let me go over it at a sort of beginner level, since I don't know your technical skillset.
Your computer's RAM is in "sticks", each of which goes in a "slot". You have either two sticks in two slots, two sticks in four slots, or four sticks in four slots. Like this...
SLOT_1 128mb
SLOT_2 128mb
SLOT_1 128mb
SLOT_2 128mb
SLOT_3 [empty]
SLOT_4 [empty]
SLOT_1 64mb
SLOT_2 64mb
SLOT_3 64mb
SLOT_4 64mb
There are a few other possibilities, I've seen both three slot motherboards and four-slot boards that alternate. So it might also look like this:
SLOT_1 128mb
SLOT_2 128mb
SLOT_3 [empty]
SLOT_1 128mb
SLOT_2 [empty]
SLOT_3 128mb
SLOT_4 [empty]
With your computer turned off and unplugged, open the case and you will see them. Flip the latches out for the highest-numbered slot with a stick in it (for the first two possibilities, this would be Slot 2; for the third, it would be Slot 4 -- for the weird boards, it would be either Slot 2 or Slot 3) and remove that one stick.
Now close it up, plug it in, and boot and install Legacy OS 4 Mini.
After shutdown, unplug the computer, open it back up, and put the stick back in. Flip the latches out, and push the stick down in there (mind the notches on the stick -- they must match the slot) until the latches click into place. It should require a fair bit of force, but if that stick REALLY doesn't want to go in, make sure that you've got it turned right -- you probably need to flip it around so that the label is facing the other way
Hope that helps.

Thanks for the long detailed post but I'm not that dumb. There is only one 256MB RAM stick i.e. I can't remove 128MB out of it.

May be able to increase the size of the memory used by video in the BIOS settings to make system think it has less RAM for running.
If the boot scripts are directly taken from BK puppy, there is a buried command switch that does this, i.e. not well known if you do not read boot code directly.
I think its there so BK can test functionality without removing RAM just like the this situation.

Sorry Usman55. I was hoping you had 2x128mb sticks. I don't have any more suggestions myself. I do know that OS4 Mini does have that problem. Good luck. Thanks, Rob

I guess I'll need to install another distro until the problem is solved. Or maybe I'll connect the hard disk to my other computer (it has 768 MB RAM) and then format it. It will work, won't it? I seriously hope the hard disk installation doesn't differ with the computer setup i.e. amount of RAM, processor etc. I'm saying this because Windows 8 failed to install due to processor's incompatibility.
Until then, can someone suggest me a light-weight OS which can run Flash flawlessly and has Office and some other basic apps preinstalled.

Post subject: Custom Racy NOP522
Hi Usman55, you could try my updated version of Gray's Racy NOP522. It was just done about a month ago. You can find it under derivatives section. It has updated flash, browsers, xfburn, deadbeef, etc. I posted 2 versions. One with Open Office Light, one without. Just an offer, it may be what you need. It is listed as Custom Racy NOP522OOL. Thanks, Rob

And here is the link to the download for the Open Office Light version:
I can't guarantee the flash works flawlessly for you. I haven't tested it on all sites of course. But it works at all the sites I go to. Let me know if it works out for you. If I have time, I'm going to put together a Puppy Linux 421CustomOOL iso also. But the RacyNOP based one has much better support for wireless and printers OOTB. Thanks, Rob

Hello Usman55,
Sorry I've been busy with work and other commitments. I searched through every accessible script written by Barry K and could never find the script that controlled the size limit setting. Now I asked if anyone knew where it was with no luck. Maybe someone will see this post and provide some answers. If it's discovered those changes will end up in future releases so anyone with this knowledge please help now.
OK try this grab a version of Puppy that does boot on you computer and partition the Hard Drive with with a ext2 partition and 1GB of swap.
Reboot with Legacy OS and see if it boots. I used this trick in the past with some luck.
Legacy OS 2017 has been released.

I've just made a full install of Legacy OS4 Mini to my hard drive and so far it's working well (so thanks again John). I haven't had to install much extra software although I have added Softmaker Free Office as I like the extra Word compatibility.

Lynn's Nashville Yard
I live in Nashville, Tennessee, about 3-4 miles from downtown. My yard is about one acre. The backyard is bigger than the front (thank goodness!) My neighborhood is very quiet, so my backyard is like my refuge. People who see it for the first time often remark that it is "like a park!!"
Back Yard Flower Close-ups Front Yard Garden Large (5,000 - 10,000 sq ft.) Lawn Medium (1,000 - 5,000 sq ft.) Patio Side Yard

The only challenge here is knowing when to say when. In our household, we eat grilled pizza by the truckload: at least once a week during the summer and at least three helpings in a sitting. Truth be told, we eat an embarrassing amount of homemade pizza year-round—but the ability to avoid turning the kitchen into a fiery furnace is one of the supreme joys of summer. Hooray for grilling.
This is our version of menudo or pot roast: We throw anything and everything from the farm share onto the dough and call it a meal. This week, it was tomatoes, potatoes, and eggplant from Red Fire Farm—sauceless, but with lots of mozz and olive oil.
This recipe is from The Joy of Cooking, but a no-machine dough would work just as well.
1 c water
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 ½ c bread flour (I use 1 ½ c all purpose and 1 c whole wheat)
½ tsp salt
1 tsp active dry yeast or ¾ tsp quick-rising yeast
Add to the bread machine in the order recommended by the machine's manufacturer (mine is as above). Process on the dough cycle (for me, the whole thing takes 1 hour 50 minutes).
Really, almost anything goes. This time, we used:
2 tomatoes
2 Asian eggplants (the long, skinny kind)
2 potatoes
8 oz mozzarella, shredded
salt and pepper to taste
sprinkle of red pepper flakes
olive oil for brushing
Fire up the grill. (We have a gas grill; charcoal users, please post suggestions for your method below!) Turn the gas to the highest setting while the grill is warming up and close the cover. Meanwhile, in the kitchen, slice your veggies nice and thin, brush them with olive oil and season as desired; then, once the grill is preheated, throw on your produce and close the lid. Four to five minutes per side is perfect for eggplant and potatoes; tomatoes can go a little less.
While the veggies are grilling, roll out your dough and brush one side with olive oil. This side will go on the grill first. Remove your veggies from the grill and turn the heat down to low. Using a pizza paddle and a nice big metal spatula, shimmy your dough off of the paddle and onto the grill, olive oil side down. Let the dough grill for three minutes, then remove it and carry it back inside (or to a handy prepping surface),
turning the heat back to high before you go.
Brush the ungrilled side of the dough with a little olive oil, flip it, and rebrush the grilled side with a little more oil (see above right). Place any sauce, cheese, red pepper flakes or your spice of choice, and your grilled veggies on the grilled side (see below right). Carry your pizza back to the grill, turn the heat back to low, and shimmy your pizza back onto the grill. Cook for seven to eight minutes. Here's the deal with all those heat adjustments: You want the grate to be super hot and the ambient temp under the grill cover to be super hot, but you don't want to singe your beautiful pizza pie.
If you want to skip the work of grilling the veggies, slices of raw tomato, fresh basil, and grated mozz work wonders. In fact, I'm getting hungry typing this. Thank goodness for leftovers.

Hollywood movies about aliens abound, but do they really exist? The real scientific search for evidence of life, and particularly intelligent life, elsewhere in the cosmos is just as exciting as the reel version, and a lot more logical. So far, there is life-as-we-know-it to guide our speculations and observations. But a new appreciation for the tenacity of life, a growing respect for the world of microbes, and new search technologies involving observatories and spacecraft are rapidly expanding our viewpoint. Many expect surprises. SETI is at the forefront of this research and has plans to extend its range out even further into the galaxy, looking for evidence of someone elses technology. In the next few decades, scientists will take a much closer look at places within our solar system where liquid water (even vast oceans) may exist and harbor life. They will also probe the closest stars to see if other Earths and biospheres exist. Dr. Jill Tarter will describe research in a discipline some call the archaeology of the future.

Two years ago Wall Street couldn't get enough of emerging markets. Countries like Brazil, Russia, India and China had the growth, said the Usual Suspects. Their economies were booming, while boring old America went nowhere, disastrous Europe imploded, and "don't even talk to me about Japan."
The fad was everywhere. A money manager in London told me his clients only wanted to hear about emerging markets. I sat at the bar of the News Café in Miami Beach in the summer of 2011 and listened while some guy in a t-shirt, who had nothing to do with finance at all, told me that people needed to invest everything they could in places like China.
Get out of the Old World and into the New, went the cry. Get on board while you still can, baby!
Oh well.
From September 1, 2011, through the end of last month, the MSCI Emerging Markets index gained exactly 2% in total — including dividends. The beloved "BRICs" — those big four markets which were The Future — gained 2.5%, which means you lost money after accounting for inflation.
Meanwhile, over the same period of time, anyone who invested in Japan was up 26%, the euro zone, 28%, and the U.S. (remarkably) 46%. Oops.
But by the end of this summer, the situation had largely reversed itself. After two years of dismal performance by emerging markets, Wall Street had decided that it hated them after all. The latest survey of institutional money managers by Merrill Lynch showed their net weighting towards emerging-market stocks had slumped to the lowest levels since November 2001 — which, for those with short memories, was in the immediate panic after 9/11, when western money managers were terrified of investing anywhere away from home.
Meanwhile — how did we guess? — those same money managers revealed they were now bullish on Europe, Great Britain and Japan, and were "overweight" each region.
This, remember, is after two years of handsome outperformance.
You couldn't make this up.
This month is the five-year anniversary of the Lehman Brothers collapse. How easy it is to forget that in The Age Before Lehman there wasn't just a bubble in housing: There was also a bubble in emerging markets. From March 2003 through October 2007, the MSCI Emerging Markets index skyrocketed 350% — before promptly giving up nearly all the gains. Anyone who invested near the peak, in 2007, is still out of pocket six years later.
(There was also a bubble in euro zone stocks. The Merrill Lynch survey in the summer of 2007 reported "EU-phoria" among money managers, as they turned more bullish on euro zone markets than ever before. Predictably, that too burst: Compared with September 1, 2007, the MSCI Eurozone index is still down 40%, even after the sharp rally of the past few years).
Emerging markets have perked up a bit in the past few weeks. They were helped by the Fed's surprise move to keep the money spigots open, which helps bolster global liquidity. The MSCI Emerging Markets index is up 9% this month, while its index of "Frontier Markets" — the next emerging markets, if you will — is up 2.6%. But those gains come off a low base.
I have no idea what the next move will be, short-term. These indexes may fall further. There is an argument for saying all markets are overvalued at the moment. There is also a technical argument for believing emerging markets may be hit hardest when the Federal Reserve does, eventually, start "tapering" its bond purchases.
However, those who like an easy and simple life and who aren't worried about short-term fluctuations may reflect that you can often make good money — over time — by doing the opposite of the big money crowd. If you hate what they love, and love what they hate, you can do surprisingly well. (This is also the argument in favor of rebalancing a passive portfolio — selling a bit of what's gone up, and using the money to buy a bit more of what's gone down.)
Those minded to go against the crowd and looking for a low-cost option can always try the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index fund

DWTS Online Campaigning For Season 14: Beth Chapman, Marina Sirtis, Greg Louganis
It seems every season we see massive online campaigning for certain celebrities to dance on Dancing With The Stars. Well, season 14 is no different. For instance, I've noticed a lot of twitter chat for Beth Chapman (aka @MrsDogC) to dance on Dancing With The Stars. In case you don't know, Beth is the wife to the "Dog The Bounty Hunter. Below is a recent picture of the two….
Would she be cool? I can see her paired up with Louis.
Another popular celebrity campaign is for Star Trek's Marina Sirtis! This isn't a new campaign. Her fans were campaigning hard for her last season as well. She has expressed great interest in doing the show. In fact, below is a quote from Trek News before last season started.
HERE is a quote from her twitter from a few days ago. Will Season 14 finally be Marina's time to shine on the dance floor?
"I've been trying to get on Dancing With The Stars for the past 2 years as it's one of my favorite shows," Sirtis told TrekNews.net. "it's time Star Trek was represented [on the show]" she added.
"I'm sure we have as many followers as the reality shows that are represented every year." Sirtis said.
On the topic of how a viral Twitter campaign began to have her nominated for the Dancing With The Stars, Sirtis said "I mentioned my desire to appear on the show at a couple of conventions and of course the fans picked up the ball and ran with it."
I'd love it if this were to happen! She definitely has a dancer body too. I still vision her with Tony like last season.
Now here is an interesting candidate and his name has come up before in many of our previous reportings…and that is Olympic Swimming Champion Greg Louganis!! Even more interesting yet is that Greg was pictured with some of the pros in Cabo San Lucas last June. Now he has recently expressed interest in dancing on Dancing With The Stars. Below is a take from LgbtqNation. What a cool message he'd have for the show too. I see Anna with Greg.
"Being on Dancing With The Stars is more than me being on the show, it sends a positive message — an 'It Gets Better' message. And that message is still important- kids are still losing hope. I want to do what I can for them."
There have been gay men on DWTS before — Lance Bass, Carson Cressley and Louis Amstel — and Chaz Bono broke the transgender barrier last season. But if his bid is successful, Louganis would be the first openly HIV positive contestant. And it's about time, say HIV activists.
"In a generation that is trying to end AIDS, it's great to have openly HIV positive sports figures like Greg Louganis in the spot light," said Tom Donohue, founder and executive director of Who's Positive, an HIV/AIDS advocacy and awareness organization.
"Not only can his presence be a reminder for folks to be tested, his appearance on 'Dancing With The Stars' can reemphasize how those living with HIV/AIDS can live normal and active lives." said Donohue, who is also on the board of directors for The National Association of People with AIDS (NAPWA).
So, what do you think if any of these three were picked to dance? Who do you see them paired with? Stay tuned as Heidi is planning a "That's Not Going To Happen" post again soon! 😉
SPECIAL NOTE:: THIS IS NOT A "CAMPAIGNING" POST for fans to campaign for their favorite celebrity. It's just a news post announcing the popular online campaigning going on currently, what you think of the above three celebrities, and who you'd like to see them paired with. If you use the comment section to campaign, your post will be deleted. You can do campaigning at the Dancing With The Stars Official site here.

What does it take to be a teacher in the 21st century? The same creativity, love of learning, caring for young people and high level of competency in one's subjects of specialization that teaching has always required. However, today's teacher is also expected to be tech savvy, multiculturally aware and more familiar with outcomes assessment than ever before.
Northern's School of Education, Leadership and Public Service can help you develop these skills. In addition to our outstanding professional development series required of all elementary and secondary education majors , NMU's technology program puts a notebook computer in your hands (as part of tuition and fees) and helps you learn to deal with technology on a daily basis. When you graduate you will feel confident using technology in your future teaching experiences.
The School of Education, Leadership and Public Service also take measures to incorporate multiculturalism into its education curriculum. We encourage students to participate in on-campus and community events that take you outside your comfort zone, and we expose you to as many different aspects of diversity as we can. Additionally, outcomes assessment is worked into your own learning experience, so you will understand how to bring benchmarks and other assessment tools into your classroom.
We strongly believe that the Northern Michigan University School of Education, Leadership and Public Service can prepare you to be a successful 21st century teacher. As faculty and staff, we take our teaching seriously because we hope that when you become a teacher, you'll feel you have great examples to follow. That means we stay current on new teaching trends and requirements, we are involved in campus and community activities (as you will be at any school district you work for) and we push ourselves to try new things and engage in new experiences.
These are the same traits we hope you develop and strengthen during your time at NMU. The opportunities are unlimited. Take advantage of them as they can help you become a better teacher.

Article content
U.S. electronics retailer RadioShack Corp reported a much bigger-than-expected quarterly loss, hurt by higher promotions in its smart phones and tablets business and weak sales of consumer electronics.
Shares of RadioShack, which reported its ninth straight quarterly loss, plunged about 22% in premarket trading.
The company's sales have been falling since 2010 as it battles executive exits and tough competition from the likes of Best Buy Co Inc, Amazon.com Inc and Wal-Mart Stores Inc, who offer wider selection and lower prices.
RadioShack announced plans in March to close up to 1,100 underperforming stores. The company, however, said in May that its agreements with lenders allowed it to close fewer stores.
RadioShack's shareholders rejected its executive compensation plan for the second year in a row, a filing showed on Monday, indicating growing investor frustration with the company.
The company's net loss widened to US$98.3 million, or 97 cents per share, in the first quarter ended May 3 from $28 million, or 28 cents per share, a year earlier.
RadioShack reported an adjusted loss of 98 cents per share.
Net sales fell 13% to $736.7 million.
Analysts on average had expected a loss of 52 cents per share on sales of $767.5 million, according to Thomson Reuters.
Sales in stores open for at least a year fell 14%.
RadioShack's shares were trading at $1.20 before the bell. The stock has lost more than half its value in the year to Monday's close.

It's all supply and demnad. She's doing all the right things to stimulate milk production. Remember a baby is WAY more efficient at getting milk out of a ****** than a pump is. (I've tried to pump sometimes and if I'm uptight about it then I get an ounce when I'm relaxed, in a quiet environment, drinking a big glass of water while I pump I get more out. Suggest she look at a picture of the baby when she pumps to stimulate her let-down reflex. Use massage and ****** compressions while nursing/pumping to increase flow.) When she's nursing, as long as she's still hearing the baby swallowing then let baby stay on the ******.It's tough for sure. There's definitely a learning curve to successfully breastfeeding. My milk took nearly 5 days to come in after a c-section. I came home tired and frustrated. Someone had told me that the best thing you can do is not have formula in your house and I probably should have listened. My husband was reading the label on a can of formula while I was sobbing and trying to figure out a good position to hold and nurse my baby. 11-months later though we're still going strong with breastfeeding.A friend of mine that had a baby two days after I did couldn't BF her baby right away. Because of a medical condition she didn't have much milk come in for a few weeks. Eventually though over a few weeks she built her supply up so that she could breastfeed and she got back to the point that she actually stopped using formula for several months!! (Our babies are now 11-months old and she's now 4 months pregnant again and found it too exhausting so she's gone back to formula part time.)I think she may have been taking a herbal supplement too that's supposed to help with this (fenugreek or domperidone? There's also something called Mother's Milk Tea ) I don't know much about these, but they may be worth looking in to. She should talk to her doctor or a lactation consultant (through the hospital. La Leche League or local public health clinic) They can likely tell her more about options that will help boost milk production.Don't get discouraged too easily. Any amount of ****** milk that she can give her baby is a good thing. It changes daily to meet baby's nutritional needs so once she's re-established the quality of milk will be perfect for baby.Hang in there! It will get easier. (Posted on 5/31/2012)

I'm calling this post "Adventures in Pesto Bread" because the although the recipe for pesto is ready to go, the recipe for the bread aspect of it needs some tweaking. It's mostly because I don't have an enriched white bread recipe that I'm 100% happy with. I have basic white recipes and a whole slew of oatmeal and whole wheat recipes that I bake on a weekly rotation, but the enriched white still eludes me.
Maybe I'm too picky but I want the bread to be soft and almost peel-able but still have structure for add-ins (such as pesto) and I want it to be flavorful but not too sweet. This version is soft and strong but a little bit too sweet and a little bit rich/heavy on the butter/oil.
Overall the bread was delicious..really really delicious. It's pesto swirled inside homemade bread how could it not be tasty? But something was not exactly what I was looking for and I know that it was because I haven't paired it up with the right bread dough yet. Guess I better make a few more batches (not exactly a terrible fate)
The pesto itself was amazing in the way that only homemade pesto can be. In fact, out of the container that I made for bread recipe experiments over 3/4s of it made it's way into my lunches and dinners and even on my eggs in the morning. Looks like I will also have to make more pesto
Good thing it's ridiculously easy to make. Just need fresh basil, Parmesan cheese, pine nuts, lemon zest, garlic, and olive oil and a handy-dandy food processor (is it wrong to be in love with a piece of kitchen equipment??)
For this version I toasted the pine nuts until slightly golden to bring out more of their flavor.
Then I ground up the nuts, basil, and garlic in the mini bowl of the food processor...
...then slowly poured a steady stream of olive oil into the herb and but mixture. The cheese got added in next and after a few pluses the pesto was ready to go.
It's tasty the day that you make it, but I prefer the flavor on the second day after the garlic and cheese and basil have had time to all meld together.
Then I promised myself to not eat it all (and managed to salvage about 1/4 of this batch for bread)
The oil in pesto makes it too heavy to just do a regular swirl with in a loaf of bread. As it bakes the swirl will sag and you'll end up with a big empty shell at the top and a squished looking swirl at the bottom. To avoid that I rolled out the dough relatively thinly and then spread a layer of the pesto over the entire thing.
Then I rolled up the dough and cut it into two equal pieces and pinches the edges of those pieces shut.
I used those two pieces to make a twist (like you do with babka or coconut swirl bread) and left it in the pan to rise.
It smelled amazing in the oven. Fresh bread, garlic, basil, and cheese all making my kitchen smell like some sort of Italian restaurant. They came out golden brown with a great rise.
It was torturous waiting for it to cool for an hour before slicing into it to see what pattern the pesto had made. I had my fingers crossed that it wasn't just a beautiful golden shell with a mush of squished bread and pesto inside.
Voila! Twisting the two spirals not only makes a pretty pattern but also helps the bread get a little bit more structure.
The holes make it not the best choice for a sandwich but it made an amazing base for my poached egg and avocado in the morning. Then the perfect side with my soup for lunch.
If you already have an enriched white bread recipe that you love then I suggest filling it with some pesto and enjoying this delicious bread. Meanwhile, I'll be in my kitchen happy to have an excuse to bake an absurd amount of bread.
Basil Pesto
1/3 cup pine nuts
2 cups fresh basil
2 large cloves of garlic
zest of one lemon
1/2 cup olive oil
3/4 cup grated Parmesan
1. Preheat the oven to 350. Lay the pine nuts on a cookie sheet and roast in oven until lightly browned (takes a few minutes. Keep checking the nuts and shaking the sheet to roll them over)
2. In a food processor place the roasted pine nuts, basil, lemon zest, and garlic. Pulse until finely chopped. Use a spatula to scrape down the bowl.
3. Turn the food processor on and pour the olive oil in a steady thin stream down the feed tube. Continue until all of the oil has been added.
4. Pulse in the Parmesan cheese until combined. Store in the fridge.
If the rolling and shaping technique for the bread isn't clear enough in this post I also do step by step photos in this post. It is the same but you don't slice the rolled dough in half before twisting it

Got pain? Piece of cake. Just take your mind off it.
I know. Sounds crazy. But …
Recent revelations about the placebo effect, and studies showing that distractions help relieve pain, are revealing that health is more mind-based than has been previously acknowledged. So, if you are suffering, get distracted.
You read that right, get distracted. And, yes, it does strike some as being simple, but I've actually seen distractions stop pain.
Several years ago, my wife and I were cleaning leaves out of a rain gutter. Joanne reached into the gutter to dig out some leaves that just wouldn't budge. As she did, she was stung on the finger by a red wasp and immediately felt pain.
When the pain intensified, Joanne went inside to lie on the couch. I asked if there was anything I could do to help. She asked me to sing to her. I said, "If you think you're in pain now, just wait till I start singing." She laughed out loud and the pain disappeared. She never suffered from the sting again.
You might think tricking the human mind caused Joanne's release from pain. However, behind the diversion was something even more than health being mind-based. We believe spirituality had a role. Could this possibly explain why certain changes in thought affect health enough to make pain vanish for good?
The awareness of the connection between spirituality and health has been steadily growing. In 2003, and looking ahead to 2010, The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation studied the future of health and health care in America and forecasted the gradual adoption of an expanded view of health by the medical establishment. This view, it said, would incorporate social, mental and spiritual factors. Apparently, this has taken place.
Dr. Larry Dossey, former Chief of Staff of Medical City Dallas Hospital, writing for The Huffington Post, stated in August, 2010, "A survey of American family physicians found that 99 percent are convinced that spiritual beliefs can heal, and 75 percent believe that prayers of others can help a patient recover. A recent survey of over 4,000 nurses found that 80 percent felt that spirituality should be covered in nurse education as a core aspect of nursing."
Behind this shift, in part, is a belief held by some that not only is health thought-based, but more importantly, a Spirit or God-based conscious experience.
Joanne and I found it interesting that when we were teaching our sons to learn to read; once they knew what a word looked and sounded like it was almost impossible to distract them with a wrong word. Once they recognized what was true, their absolute faith and understanding in its realness helped keep them from making any more mistakes. This phenomenon worked with words, then with numbers in numerical equations, and as well, with health issues.
Could this be how Jesus healed? The Bible relates that the initial Christian healer once said, "Know the truth and the truth will make you free." The definition of truth is open to interpretation and a wide variety of applications. Some feel that human experience defines truth. Others believe, including Joanne and I, that truth has a divine origin which molds and guides human experience. Many are finding that seeing God as Truth can bring changes, such as pain giving way to health as naturally as darkness gives way to light.
It is believed that once thought locks onto "truth," the sufferer's spiritual selfhood comes alive, so to speak, and health becomes spectacularly real. In this conscious state of well-being, it is almost impossible to be mentally pulled back to pain or darkness.
No wonder more and more people are using prayer or spirituality as a first choice for pain management and health care.
It should be understood, though, that suffering, any suffering, should never be taken lightly. I hope we all want sufferers to find freedom from discomfort and pain, and in the quickest and most efficient way. But …
Evidently, if you are distracted by the truth, it is a good thing. Sometimes, it is quite medicinal. And, it appears, that the healthy outcomes last and last.

|Find the best surf spots
Saturday July 26 2008 07:00:55
Wind direction: Offshore
Wind Strength: Light
Nb waves ridden: 10?
Length of the surf session: 180 min
Surfboard ridden: 6"3"
Fins: thruster
Weather and water temp: warm, nice
Waves height: Less than 1m / 3ft
Waves Quality:
- Mushy
Waves Shape:
- Multipeaks
My friend and our families drove from Shonan to get some waves here. There were so many people in the water and they were so serious about their surfing. I was the only gaijin that I saw in the water, not many people were friendly towards me, everyone was riding the same equipment (6'1's or 6'2's) and just KOOKING it. I'm from Oz and it was a bit of a cultural shock compared to our Saturday morning sessions. Even my Japanese friend was a bit shocked about the rudeness but was having a laugh about it.
I can see the place has potential though. After about 2 hours the crowd on the right got up to at least 100+ so we went for a paddle to see what was on the other side of the tetras, and there was a knee high left running down the tetras for about 50-60 metres - GOLD! - and only a learner guy and his chick on a boog, smiling and happy. Compared to the tryhards on the other side it was unreal - i'd love to see how they'd go in real surf grrrr.
Anyway, thanks to the learner guy and his chick, getting away from the crowd made our visit there totally cool. I'll be back if there is swell - but if there's no swell....well?

THE SQL Server Blog Spot on the Web
In my MDW Reports series, I attached V1 of the RDL files in my post - May the source be with you! MDW Report Series Part 6–The Final Edition. Since that post, Rachna Agarwal from MSIT in India updated the RDL files that are ready to go in a single ZIP.
The reports assume that they will ne uploaded to the Report Manager's root folder and use a shared data source named MDW. The reports also integrate with the new Query Hash Statistics reports.
You can download them from my SQLBlog.com download site.
Today I presented data collection strategies for SQL Server 2008 at Phoenix SQL Saturday 47. I've attached my deck to this post so that you can get the links and references that I presented.
To learn more about the Data Collector, check out these links.
Be sure to click on the attachment link to download the slides.
In this blog post, I will go through the steps needed to prepare for a proof of concept (POC) for using the SQL Server 2008 R2 Data Collector (DC) and Management Data Warehouse (MDW) reports (covered in part 2) to get you up and running. I'll cover the installation of the new Query Hash Stats collection set from Bart Duncan and how to get the MDW reports installed on your SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) server. My assumption for the POC is that you'll have around 30 systems that you'll want to monitor.
The Query Hash Statistics collection set was created by Bart Duncan of Microsoft. At the tail end of the SQL Server 2008 release cycle, the Manageability team ran out of time to incorporate the late changes that the Engine team made to support the "Query Fingerprint" and "SQL Fingerprint" features. See Bart Duncan's blog post – "Query Fingerprints and Plan Fingerprints (The Best SQL 2008 Feature That You've Never Heard Of)" for a deep understanding of how this works as well.
What it this means for the Data Collector is that the collection of Query Plans and Text is highly optimized with the new Query Hash Statistics collection set. In addition, Bart has created a set of reports which offers more insight into the most expensive queries running on your system.
Download the Query Hash Statistics project and unzip the files to a shared location accusable by the computer hosting the MDW and the computers hosting the SQL Server database engines that you'll collect data from.
I'm going to assume that you've already installed SQL Server 2008 or SQL Server 2008 R2 Database Engine and Management Tools. Optionally you can install Reporting Services for running the RDL files that I'll provide.
The MSDN topic "Getting Started with the Data Collector", goes over the basic steps for creating the Management Data Warehouse database and the Data Collector, but there a few things that you should know before you begin.
After updating the MDW to support the new collection set, installing the collection set on the target instance, and copying the reports as instructed to the MDW server, you are ready to go.
The reports provided for the SQL Server Query Hash Statistics collection set replace the Query Statistics reports. To open the reports, connect SSMS to the SQL Server instance that hosts your MDW database, right-click on the MDW database in Object Explorer, and select "Custom Report..." from the Reports submenu. Browse to the location where you extracted the Query Hash Statistics files, and open MdwOverviewCustom.rdl. You will not need to manually browse to the .RDL file after this; you'll find the report name in the Reports context menu. The first time you open a custom report, SSMS will ask you to confirm that you trust the report.
You'll want to wait a few hours after collecting data to run the reports so that you can start making sense of the data.
It's that easy. In the next blog post, I'll cover how to install the MDW reports on an SSRS server.

Willow Run Bomber Plant Video....
Many old-time pilots have heard about this, but have never seen it.
This film will absolutely blow you away - one B-24 every 55 minutes.
HITLER HAD NO IDEA THE U.S. WAS CAPABLE OF THIS KIND OF THING. There is no way he could have even guessed.
For those who live outside of Michigan, Willow Run (YIP) is near Bellville, Canton, and Ypsilanti, MI. It is 8 miles west of DTW (Detroit Metro).
The first freeway in the world was built from Detroit to this Bomber Plant. It was the origin of what is now I-94. It brought people to work at Willow Run.
It's amazing that one B-24 (built with over 1.25 million parts) came off the assembly line every 55 minutes
The wisdom and patriotism of Henry Ford made this "miracle" possible. It also helped to keep the world free.
You will enjoy the few minutes it takes to watch this snapshot of history.

Don't be a bond Chicken LittleAugust 15, 2013: 1:09 PM ET
The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Paul R. La Monica. Other than Time Warner, the parent of CNNMoney, Abbott Laboratories and AbbVie, La Monica does not own positions in any individual stocks.
Interest rates are going up! Interest rates are going up! It's the bond market equivalent of Chicken Little screaming that the sky is falling.
Now, to be fair to fixed-income wonks, it is in fact true that interest rates are going up. Chicken Little, on the other hand, came to an erroneous conclusion due to her ignorance of the fundamental laws of gravity. (Watch out for that acorn next time! Plonk!)
But investors, just like Chicken Little, do need to take a deep breath and relax.
Yes, the yield on the 10-year Treasury rose to 2.82% Thursday morning. And that's not just a 52-week high. Rates haven't been at this level since July 2011. You don't need to be a Mathlete (like I was back in the proverbial day ... once a nerd, always a nerd) to figure out that this is pretty darn close to the psychologically important level of 3%.
But is this a problem? No.
Related: The 'Septaper' is coming. Deal!
Take the long view (but not the long way home ... yes I just dropped some Supertramp on you. Guilty pleasure!) The 10-year yield was 4% just as the Great Recession was about to begin in December 2007. And rates were routinely above 4% throughout 2005 and 2006 -- sometimes even topping 5%.
That didn't derail the housing boom in those years. So why should rates below 3% put an end to the housing recovery?
Bond yields appear to be rising for two related reasons. The economy is slowly but surely getting better. That's led to increased speculation that the Federal Reserve will finally begin to rein in its quantitative easing program ... possibly as soon as next month.
If the Fed pulls back, or tapers, its $85 billion a month in bond purchases, yields should creep higher. Bond yields go up when prices go down. Prices go down when people, or in this case, Fed worker bees, aren't buying as many bonds.
Related: Bernanke bashing hedge funds not benefiting from taper talk
So the second reason bond yields have shot up lately is because Wall Street is all about trying to predict the future. They are getting ahead of the beginning of the end of QE by selling bonds now. That drives rates higher.
It's also worth noting -- even though the data is not completely up-to-date -- that both China and Japan reduced their holdings in U.S. debt in June. The Treasury Department released that information Thursday morning. China and Japan collectively owned $2.36 trillion in Treasury securities. That's down from $2.4 trillion in May.
If China and Japan continue to sell, rates should head higher. And why shouldn't they unload more Treasuries? It's probably smart of them to diversify their holdings. And amazingly enough, Europe may be attractive again with the eurozone finally out of recession.
Finally -- and I can't stress this point enough -- panicking about interest rates going from 1.6% in May to 2.8% doesn't make sense because rates never should have been as low as 1.6% in the first place.
Investors got complacent. They really started to believe that the economy would never recover and that we would all live happily ever after in a QE ∞ world where magical Fed fairies sprinkle the pixie dust of more bond purchases to keep rates "exceptionally low" indefinitely.
That all changed in May when Fed chair Ben Bernanke first hinted that tapering could soon be on the way.
Related: Pimco's Bill Gross vows to win bond war
Now, I have criticized the Fed -- and Bernanke in particular -- for talking too much lately and confusing the market. But all Fed members have been pretty consistent during the past few months. They all say that the Fed will only taper if the job market improves.
The job market is improving. Payroll growth may not be as robust as we'd like. But initial unemployment claims are back at pre-recession levels.
The sky isn't falling. And that's why bond yields shouldn't be falling either. It's time to not just recognize that fact, but also celebrate that rising rates are a sign of a healthier economy.

WATERTOWN, Massachusetts (AP) - Police say one of two suspects in the shooting of a Massachusetts Institute of Technology police officer is dead and a massive manhunt is underway for another, who is believed to be tied to the Boston Marathon bombing.
Shortly after the MIT officer was shot dead on Thursday night, police got a report of a carjacking in Cambridge, just outside Boston. One of the two suspects in that officer's shooting was killed.
Police say the suspect at-large is believed to be a "terrorist" who "came here to kill people.".
The FBI said it is working with local authorities to determine what happened.
The MIT shooting on the Cambridge campus on Thursday night was followed by reports of violence in nearby Watertown, about 10 miles west of Boston.
State police spokesman David Procopio had said there was a "strong possibility" the incidents are related.
The MIT officer had been responding to report of a disturbance Thursday night when he was shot multiple times, according to a statement from the Middlesex district attorney's office and Cambridge police. It said there were no other victims.
In Watertown, witnesses reported hearing multiple gunshots and explosions at about 1am Eastern time (1pm Singapore time) on Friday. Dozens of police officers and FBI agents were in the neighbourhood and a helicopter circled overhead.
State police spokesman David Procopio said, "The incident in Watertown did involve what we believe to be explosive devices possibly, potentially, being used against the police officers."
Boston cab driver Imran Saif said he was standing on a street corner at a police barricade across from a diner when he heard an explosion.
"I heard a loud boom and then a rapid succession of pop, pop, pop," he said. "It sounded like automatic weapons. And then I heard the second explosion."
He said he could smell something burning and advanced to check it out but area residents at their windows yelled at him, "Hey, it's gunfire! Don't go that way!"
MIT said right after the 10.30pm shooting that police were sweeping the campus in Cambridge and urged people to remain indoors. They urged people urged to stay away from the Stata Building, a mixed-use building with faculty offices, classrooms and a common area.
Hours later, MIT, which has about 11,000 students, said the campus was clear but the shooter was still on the loose.

With Crysis 3 on the way, even if we know almost nothing about it, we can at least guess it'll feature improved visuals from the second game in the series.
Especially since developers Crytek just announced a range of upgrades to their proprietary engine, including "revamped DirectX 11 tessellation, advanced character rendering options" and an "improved AI system".
What does that mean? Pretty things can now look a little prettier. As you can see in the video above.
