U.S. Senator Marco Rubio, R-FL, gave reporters some details about what the GOP version of the Dream Act might look like recently.

Tom Wolfe wrote his new novel, Back to Blood, entirely by hand. But the author of The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test and The Bonfire of the Vanities also says that wasn't entirely by choice — he'd rather have used a typewriter.
"Unfortunately, you can't keep typewriters going today — you have to take the ribbons back to be re-inked," Wolfe tells Fresh Air's Dave Davies. "There's a horrible search to try to find missing parts."
Today the Cuban government announced that Cubans will no longer need an exit visa from the state in order to leave the country for travel, etc. However, the government simultaneously cracked down on travel for high skilled workers.
As of January 14, 2012, Cubans will only need a visa from the country they are traveling to in order to leave the country.
Immigration and agriculture go hand in hand.
That's what community and business leaders in Tallahassee recently heard from Florida Agriculture Commissioner Adam Putnam.
He said immigration reform is vital to the health of the state's agriculture industry.
Putnam told the Economic Club of Florida he is concerned the U.S. is losing business to developing countries that have different standards for hiring farm workers.
New York Magazine published a great profile of Florida's former governor and current Miamian Jeb Bush this week.
The profile tackled some pretty big topics about Bush, who has stayed mostly out of the limelight since he finished his term as Florida's governor in 2007. The article mentioned how Jeb's connections to the Hispanic community might make him the greatest hope for the future of the GOP and why he didn't run in 2012.
Green Card Stories (Umbrage Books) is a collection of profiles and photographs of fifty immigrants from around the country by journalist Saundra Amrhein and photographer Ariana Lindquist. Amrhein has been a journalist for seventeen years. She spent ten years at the St. Petersburg Times (now the Tampa Bay Times.) Immigrants profiled include a triathelete, a magician, a flea market worker, small business owners and executives.
Juan Galvez is going into 4th grade. His parents are from Bolivia and Guatemala, and they only speak Spanish.
When it comes to homework, Juan is usually on his own.
"My mom helps me a little because she knows the math," says Juan. "But with reading, I'm good. I do it by myself."
When an earthquake struck Haiti in January 2010, the United States stopped deporting Haitian immigrants to the devastated nation. But deportations resumed last January, and Franco Coby, 24, of Fort Myers, found himself banished from the country he grew up in since the age of 6.
After the earthquake hit Haiti in 2010, thousands of Haitians fled to South Florida to escape the devastation in their country. Some were able to leave Haiti on tourist visas. Others came as guardians to their injured children. No matter how they came to the country, most have been living in limbo in the United States.
The Obama administration on Thursday said it would review the deportation cases of 300,000 illegal immigrants. The administration wants to put high priority on removing convicted criminals, and low priority on cases that involve people who pose no security threat.
That might make a big difference for thousands of undocumented immigrants who came to the United States as children.
New Hope For One Student
Learning to Die in Miami is author Carlos Eire's follow-up to his 2003 memoir, Waiting for Snow in Havana. In his first book, Eire wrote about his childhood in Cuba before and during the Castro revolution.
A few days after the earthquake, the U.S. government decided that Haitians living in the United States would be eligible for Temporary Protected Status, or TPS. However, there has been much confusion about who can apply, how you apply and what happens after you apply for TPS.
For example, only Haitians who were living in the United States before the earthquake are eligible for TPS. As Alicia Zuckerman discovered, some Haitians refer to TPS as "Ti Pelen Sosyal"– Kreyol for "L'il Social Trap"– because they fear that they may be deported if they apply.
In this episode, we look at how the Jan. 12 earthquake in Haiti changed life here in South Florida. We tell stories from a school that absorbed quake survivors, from a church that opened its doors to the grief-stricken, from lawyers' offices where Haitians applied for an immigration shield, and from a hospital tent where tired doctors were uplifted by a song.

*UPDATE* As expected RIM did officially release Theme Studio v6.0 today. If for some reason you were waiting for the official release and didn't already grab the leak, you can download it from the link below.
This is going to make so many people happy. The long awaited and recently announced update to RIM's BlackBerry Theme Studio has just leaked! What does this mean for you? Well, if you are a theme developer it means themes can now be made for devices running BB6 besides the Torch. If you are a theme junky that recently upgraded either your BlackBerry or the OS to 6.0, it means you can get ready to start buying/downloading themes again because they will soon be available! Hopefully it also means that Torch themes will be less buggy. Keep in mind this isn't an official release, it's a leak, so expect to see an official announcement from RIM sometime in the near future.
So theme developers, go get it and start making us some spectacular themes!! I wonder who will be first to release a theme made from Theme Studio v6.0 for a device other than the Torch?
For more information and to download the BlackBerry Theme Studio v6.0 official release
Direct download for Theme Studio v6.0 leaked version

DearFloyd Jan 27, 2011 at 10:46 pm

escentz Jan 28, 2011 at 12:39 am
My first theme I installed on my 9780 :) can't wait to see more from my fav themers!!!!
belfastdispatcher Jan 28, 2011 at 12:02 pm
:) can you take all the colour out? And get rid of the views? Am I pushing it? ;)
All OS 6 Models now available with updated top banner removed theme too
just goto the main site OTA links are there
buritoslicer Jan 27, 2011 at 11:11 pm
woop woop. os6 themes for the bold!
About time! Now I can add shortcuts to my favorite 3rd party apps using the remaining keys that are not used to open BlackBerry default applications.
I missed that from the theme I created when I had OS 5
belfastdispatcher Jan 29, 2011 at 6:24 am
How do you do that? I'm very interested. F- facebook would be the main one :)
bagoodwin21 Jan 27, 2011 at 11:39 pm
So does this support making themes for OS 4.5 for my poor little 8330m? Seems like nothing else works on it anymore.
Paulzmbie Jan 28, 2011 at 5:23 pm
dont u know u can upgrade 8330 to OS5.0?
bagoodwin21 Jan 30, 2011 at 12:56 pm
Not the 8330m though
Oh ya... I am going to see all the great improvements that OS6 theme developers make and then upgrade my 9700 to OS6... I can't wait for the NEXT OS6 leak for 9700 because I hope that it will be much much better than current .448 leak.... I hope there will be lots of free themes....
JoBudden Jan 28, 2011 at 3:25 am
Free themes are something that seems to lack lately. Though there are a few good theme developers out there most seem to be making premium themes and none have been that great i completely wasted 7 bucks on a theme that i thought looked really nice tonight. All premium themes should have a trial version or something. its becoming quite a pain to find a good theme when u have to pay for them all
boggsterman Jan 28, 2011 at 4:57 am
I'm a bit of an amateur theme builder and i'm happy about this because stopped making themes when i got OS6 and a 9700. Anyway, free themes are a coming! (they might not be as beautiful as some of the premium themes though...)
hollidizzle Jan 28, 2011 at 7:55 am
Yesssss!!!! Our prayers have been answered!!! Now lets just hope some of the themes are free and not all Premium....
tonyp216 Jan 28, 2011 at 7:55 am
I'm definatly getting this when I get back home!!!!!
I would kill if someone would make an OS6 theme based on Foppa 19 (hidden today).
AcADIeN Jan 28, 2011 at 8:38 am
weird that it still show as beta, but hey if it work it's nice!

Can this get rid of the sliding views? Please say yes :)

i managed to tweak somethings that were driving me crazy
mkye86 Jan 28, 2011 at 1:03 pm
Great Now I just need a leak for the 9700 that will allow me to change my theme.. .448 doesn't seem to have it.
murd395 Jan 28, 2011 at 11:36 pm
Open options type "theme" >screen display> scroll to bottom
stacibenson Jan 28, 2011 at 1:38 pm
Can it get rid of sliding views? If by that you mean the stupid "All", "Favorites"..trays then yes you can. You can definitely do it on a custom layout (from what I saw taking a look through TB last night) that has the theme looking as if your still running OS5
I didn't much go through the default OS6 theme build because (like you) I don't like all of the "trays"
belfastdispatcher Jan 28, 2011 at 1:52 pm
I see their place in a touch screen OS6 but not in a non touch blackberry, too many accidental swipes.
belfastdispatcher Jan 28, 2011 at 2:09 pm
He he, here's a question, can anybody charge for themes made with a leaked theme studio?
arsenalsocal Jan 28, 2011 at 3:28 pm
Is it just me or there is no way to add an SVG? I tried both "custom" and "blackberry OS6"
where can i find the original blackberry theme on my phone? i just find/found the one i added myself

SEKRET Jan 29, 2011 at 11:04 pm
I'm having a problem...whenever I make a theme & load it I can't do any universal search what's up with that? Anybody else having the same prob?
jattpadda Jan 30, 2011 at 12:23 am
I can't download this because it says "This file is either removed due to copyright claim or is deleted by the uploader." :O Whats up CrackBerry????????

Hi guys, I have a working link for y'all but you need to register to download it. Registration is free so no worries :D
jattpadda Jan 30, 2011 at 1:27 pm
It's not working bro!!!
Fantastic - does this mean we OS 6-ers can "upgrade" our home screen back to OS 5 and get rid of the superfluous trays and tedious double-click to open the app tray? It's a pity RIM decided to ship OS 6 with such useless UI gimmicks. I'll buy the first theme that removes them.

|Years played
|2001, 1st round, 6th pick by Patriots

Pats could fill hole at DE spot in first round
With two picks in the first round of a DE-heavy draft, the Patriots could look to continue their success of using their first pick on a defensive player to help shore up the defensive line.

Bills NT Kyle Williams has been added to the AFC Pro Bowl roster, replacing the Raiders' Richard Seymour.
Seymour fined $25,000 for punch

Raiders DT Seymour's swat a foolish act
The Raiders received a rude awakening Sunday when the Steelers gave them a 35-3 beating, and DT Richard Seymour put a blemish on his otherwise outstanding season in the loss.
Seymour ejected from Raiders-Steelers game
Raiders DE Richard Seymour was ejected after hitting Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger in Sunday's Week 11 game.

Raiders DT Henderson could be out another month
Raiders DT John Henderson, who has missed two games with a stress fracture in his right foot, could miss 2-5 additional weeks.
Jackson not certain to regain DE job
Although Tyson Jackson has returned to practice following a knee injury, there's no guarantee that the 2009 No. 3 overall pick will win back his starting DE spot, according to AFC West Whispers.
Big plays mask Raiders' improvement on defense
That Raiders-to-the-playoffs bandwagon was getting crowded heading into Week One, but some people are no doubt hopping off after Oakland was humbled by Tennessee on Sunday, 38-13.
Raiders could win 10 games ... or more
A year ago this time, I picked the Saints as my surprise team for 2009. Score one for this usually-awful-at-predicting-this-kind-of-thing writer. Feeling saucy, I'll go out on a limb again. As their fight song goes — yes, pro teams used ...
Patriots' Chung has room for improvement
Second-year safety Patrick Chung will need to raise his level of play by the time the regular season begins, according to "AFC Whispers," as he has struggled matching up against tight ends early in New England's training camp.
Long-term deal for Raiders DE Seymour unlikely
Oakland still could lock up Richard Seymour with a new long-term contract, but signing the franchise tender created the perception that the two sides couldn't come to an agreement on a longer deal.

Pub team's festive pullovers raise cash for Save the Children
By sophia1980 | Wednesday, December 11, 2013, 14:02
Staff from one of Bristol's best known pubs will be getting into the Christmas spirit by wearing an assortment of festive jumpers to help raise money for Save the Children.
The Horts team get ready for Christmas Jumper day
Part of National Christmas Jumper Day, the team from Horts on Broad Street are hoping their dazzling pullovers will raise plenty of funds for the charity which saves children's lives in over 120 countries.
The team is also hoping guests who visit the venue for a drink, bite to eat or to see a film in the brand new 26-seat cinema called The Director's Cut, will also put on their Christmas finest or contribute to the cause.
Richard Fairchild, manager at Horts said: "In the run up to Christmas it's always easy to forget about those who are perhaps a little less fortunate than ourselves so we thought that by getting involved in this fun way we will help raise some cash and also a few smiles.
"A donation of just £1 really can make the difference between life and death and if we are able to help those who need it most will make this festive season one to remember."
According to Save the Children a £1 donation could pay for nine sachets of oral rehydration treatment for children suffering from diarrhoea.
£95 could pay for a midwife's training to help ensure babies are delivered safely in the poorest parts of the world.
Richard added: "We hope we won't put guests off too much with the variety of jumpers we intend to wear and hope it will bring a smile to everyone's face this Christmas."

The Illinois Tollway's Finance Administration Operations and Strategic Planning Committees today recommended approval of a $4 million contract award to Schaumburg- based TranSystems Corp. to continue to plan for the proposed extension of Illinois Route 53/120 in Lake County.
"This is an important step forward for the Illinois Route 53/120 Extension, which is expected to create thousands of jobs and drive economic development in Lake County and the region for decades to come," said Governor Pat Quinn. "This project can also serve as a national model for how to design and build a roadway that preserves and protects the environment and local communities."
The new contract recommended for approval today will develop a detailed engineering concept, evaluate cost estimates, refine traffic and revenue analyses and survey customers' willingness to pay tolls on the proposed extension. The contract also includes services to study the environmental and economic impacts of the project. Work is expected to take 18 months to complete.
Open and transparent process
"The Blue Ribbon Advisory Council's recommendations were the result of an open and transparent process that included tremendous cooperation that helped us reach consensus on this project," said Illinois Tollway Executive Director Kristi Lafleur. "We expect this process to be a model for planning for all Tollway projects moving forward. The contract that we are recommending today allows us to continue this important work."
Another key recommendation from the Blue Ribbon Advisory Council was development of a coordinated, corridorwide land use plan. Last June, after reviewing the Council's report, the Tollway's Strategic Planning Committee agreed to participate such a plan.
Lake County and the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP) are working to advance the land use plan through CMAP's Local Technical Assistance program. The process will actively engage each municipality along the corridor to develop an integrated plan for land use, transportation, economic development and open space. The Blue Ribbon Advisory Council recommended that the completed plan be adopted by Lake County and each municipality. The corridor plan process is expected to be underway by mid-2013.
"We are very happy to see this important project move forward," said Lake County Board Chairman Aaron Lawlor. "Lake County will continue to take an active role in making the project a reality and is happy to partner with CMAP in advancing the corridorwide land use plan."
"This project provides an opportunity to not only build a road that's in harmony with nature, but also forge an integrated plan for development in Central Lake County," said George Ranney, co-chair of the Illinois Route 53/120 Blue Ribbon Advisory Council.
The Illinois Route 53/120 Extension is expected to cost between $2.3 and $2.7 billion. Cost estimates developed as part of the detailed engineering concept will inform future discussions on how to finance the project and potential sources of revenue. This could include local and other sources, as recommended by the Blue Ribbon Advisory Council.
The Illinois Tollway Board of Directors is expected to approve the contract with TranSystems Corp. at its Feb. 28 meeting.
The Blue Ribbon Advisory Council brought together public officials and representatives from business, labor, planning and environmental groups to assist in the planning and potential building of the Illinois Route 53/120 Extension in Lake County. Its final report recommended that the Tollway proceed with further development of Illinois Route 53 as a four-lane, 45 mph tolled parkway. The report also outlined the scope, configuration and design elements of the new roadway and proposed a financial framework for the project.

CamTran expects to save about $42,000 on precast concrete walls for its new $20 million operations center after a second round of bids.
The Cambria County Transit Authority board on Friday awarded the $1,532,550 contract to New Crete Products of Roaring Spring, part of New Enterprise Stone & Lime Co.
Site work began recently at the new facility's location along Maple Avenue in the city's Woodvale section, but several construction contracts have not been awarded.
Bids came in higher than expected and were advertised again, with modifications to save money.
"We saved $42,000 from the initial bids," Chairman Ed Cernic Jr. said during the meeting.
Bids on a few remaining components of construction will be opened in coming weeks, but the walls require time to design and prepare, he explained.
"That's the very next step, and there is a lot of lead time on that," Cernic said.
In other matters, the authority gave tentative approval to renewal of Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield for employees' health care insurance with a 16 percent premium increase.
The board left open the option for a different policy, pending approval by the drivers union.
The change could save the organization about $22,000, Cernic said.
Driver John Porter was presented with a distinguished service award for his "quick thinking and calm demeanor" to safely bring his bus to a stop after a deer smashed through the windshield and thrashed around the passenger area. A video of the incident has attracted international attention, reaching more than 5 million views on YouTube.

Thread: Foxboro police chief sued
Foxboro police chief sued
FOXBORO - Police Chief Edward O'Leary has been sued by two concertgoers detained for alleged drunkenness before a Bruce Springsteen show at Gillette Stadium last month in a civil action that could have a profound impact on police procedure at future concerts.
The suit by Paul Weldner and Dr. Timothy Dutton, both from Maine, was filed in federal court, alleging they were held under an illegal policy in which police simply round up people they think are drunk.
An attorney for the men says he's seeking class-action status for the suit, alleging the police policy has been in effect at other concerts affecting hundreds of people, if not more.
Weldner and Dutton are suing to strike down the policy and for unspecified damages, citing "emotional distress and humiliation."
In the Springsteen incident, the pair was on a bus trip organized by Dutton to take about 50 fans from the Portland, Maine, area to the Aug. 18 show at Gillette Stadium.
Both men were drinking, but neither was "incapacitated" - the state's legal standard for putting people into protective custody, the lawsuit said.
"We are confident that ... (police) were basically casting the net too wide," said David Milton, an attorney for the plaintiffs. "The statute's called protective custody. It's not meant to be preventive detention."
Milton said he believes more than 1,000 people were also wrongly detained under O'Leary's policy, including at the Aug. 24-25 New England Country Music Festival at Gillette Stadium. He's seeking class-action status.
O'Leary said Monday that he hadn't read the lawsuit and couldn't comment.
Sixty-six people were taken into protective custody at the Springsteen concert, which drew an audience of 46,700 fans.
That was more than was taken into custody at last year's Springsteen appearance, but O'Leary said after the concert fans were mostly well-behaved, calling them a "more mature" crowd.
A week later at the two-night country music fest featuring Kenny Chesney and Tim McGraw, local and state police took 617 people into protective custody.
O'Leary, who serves as head of security for events at Gillette Stadium, said after the country-western concerts: "We set a higher bar for the protection of the public that goes to these events. Several of the young people taken into protective custody were so impaired, we feared for their lives and they were sent to the hospital."

The Great Debate (India)
from The Great Debate:
Pedro's story still relevant today
- Bill Clinton is founder of the William J. Clinton Foundation and the 42nd President of the United States. The opinions expressed are his own -
Fifteen years ago, when Pedro Zamora appeared on MTV's The Real World, he changed the face of HIV/AIDS in America.
For the first time, viewers saw an openly gay, HIV-positive young person on national television. As we followed his story each week, Pedro humanized the growing epidemic, reducing our ignorance and fears and increasing our determination to act. By living bravely and allowing MTV to show his story, Pedro set an extraordinary example of what a tremendous impact a single person can make in our world.
Pedro's story and his message remain powerful and relevant. Today, more than 1 million Americans are living with HIV, and 20 percent of them don't know they are infected. Infection rates are increasing among certain groups, including women of color. The HIV infection rate in Washington, D.C. - at 3 percent - is comparable to some African countries where AIDS is the number one cause of death.
It's critical for our nation to intensify the fight against HIV/AIDS here at home, starting with testing. Lack of information, misconceptions, and social stigma keep too many people from getting tested. Others mistakenly believe they have been tested as part of routine health care visits. Rapid result tests, including basic oral swabs, make it easy for anyone, anywhere in the country to be tested for HIV. Non-invasive testing is also available for other, more prevalent STDs, including chlamydia, gonorrhea.

---- — KEESEVILLE — Adirondack Hardware's renovated home-heating display gives customers a variety of choices.
Owner Roger Long Jr. said they renovated that part of the store earlier this year to create home-oriented displays.
"It used to just be a display rack. It was hard for a customer to imagine how it would look in the home," Long said.
The display area features a hot-air furnace, pellet stove, both kerosene and liquid propane or natural gas direct-vent heaters and a wood stove.
Rising fuel prices continue to be an issue for North Country residents, he said. Long said liquid propane and natural gas units have become more popular because the price for those fuels are not as volatile.
Many are also switching to wood stoves, with customers willing to put in the labor in order to save money, he said. Wood pellets are an alternative for people who don't have access to wood.
Long said they are selling pellets for $239 a ton at the moment. He said one ton of pellets provides about the same amount of heat as 115 gallons of fuel oil, which sells for more than $4 a gallon.
He said they have also hired Brian LaFountain as their in-house heating specialist.
Adirondack Hardware carries outdoor wood boilers by Central Boiler, wood stoves, pellet stoves, hot-air furnaces, combination wood/propane furnaces, combination heating and air-conditioning units, direct-vent fireplaces by Napoleon, direct-vent heaters by Rinnai and direct-vent kerosene heaters by Toyotomi.
Long said they handle the sales and can subcontract through Kelco Heating in Peru for customers who need labor performed on the units.
Adirondack Hardware is a full-service hardware store. They carry hand tools, power tools, fasteners, hardware, paints and painting supplies, electrical supplies, plumbing fixtures and supplies, heating, ventilation and air-conditioning equipment, housewares, lawn and garden supplies, sporting goods and general automotive equipment.
They also offer equipment rentals.
Long said his father always took pride in the store's appearance, as it is one of the anchors of Keeseville's business district.
The store has been well supported by the community, he said.
"We do have a good following of loyal customers that have been coming here for years," Long said.
He said they also enjoy seeing new faces, especially young people who are starting in careers such as plumbing, heating, carpentry or lawn care.
Long said his father, Robert Long, opened Adirondack Hardware's Keeseville location 40 years ago. The company added locations in Willsboro and Malone in the 1980s, he said.
Long and Barbara Gero took over the operation about two years ago, he said.
There are about 20 employees total in the three locations.
"We've got a sound staff, many of whom have been here quite a while," Long said. "They are very knowledgeable and helpful, and they're all local."
Adirondack Hardware is open 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday and 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Sunday.
The stores accept cash, checks and credit cards. They offer charge accounts, gift certificates, layaway and financing with their Home Source cards.

Secret Seafood Sauce: mayo + water?
I saw Bayliss do this on one if his PBS shows (IIRC something about a street vendor food cart at the beach), and I thought I also read it on one of these boards, but could not find it again.
You just take a couple of big spoons of mayo and add water until it becomes like heavy cream. Boy, was it good not to mention simple. It is one of the best 'secret' recipes I have stumbled onto in quite a while.
We had some baked salmon. Kraft mayo + water + a few fresh oregano leaves. Also, we tried a mexican hot sauce and some fresh ground pepper instead of oregano. I now have a 'standard' seafood/fish sauce for this summer.
I can see also sorts of possibilites: add whatever flavor, herb, spice is at hand. Funny thing, it does not taste like mayo anymore. It is rich and creamy but not overly so, with just a faint hint of acid.
I like to use lemon juice instead of water. Very lemony and creamy. Great on fish, and FABULOUS with steamed artichokes - though I use less liquid in this case. Any herb addition is a plus (tarragon is my favorite, if I have it). It's about the only time I eat mayo anymore, and it's worth keeping a jar around for! (Though, personally, I prefer Hellman's over Kraft - I love the eggy taste.)
You can also make a good sesame/garlic salad dressing by blending the water, toasted sesame seeds, fresh garlic, and a bit of ginger together in a food processor/blender, then add to the mayo.

re: Gio
I dunno. I had the same thought about black strap molasses and really fatty, 'junk' fish (spanish mackeral, saba) that have been grilled with lots of black edges, like I had in Hawaii a few years ago. There are some recipes for salmon that use a glaze that includes honey or maple syrup.
re: jerry i h
re: Sam Fujisaka
i agree with sam , mix with yogurt - honey, maple syrup, mollasess, dark agave - any of the above - smear on fish and grill - particularly oil tasting fish - like bluefish..amazing on salmon - i made a "glaze" of yogurt,dark agave, and very ripe avocado, soy and rice wine vinegar - so good - avocado acts much like mayo would
One of my favorite sushi restos uses a no fat mayo / sesame oil concoction that they pour over a few of their creations. One of my favorites, aburiyaki le, is a nigiri with green asparagus and torched salmon on top, then drizzled with that dressing and topped with sesame seeds ---- yowza.
You can go a step in a different direction - cook the fish with the mayo. Saveur had a recipe a year or so ago in which you basically very lightly coat fish with soy sauce, let sit 20 min. or so, put in a baking dish, spread mayo over & bake. Initially it just seemed too..something, but I decided to try it and it is really delicious. If I was teaching a novice how to cook fish I'd start there. It is very forgiving, fish stays moist as can be & tastes wonderful. No one would ever guess what the secret ingredient is!
This is now my "go to" recipe when I have fish but feel utterly drained of energy - and sometimes I make it even when I'm feeling perky!
re: meatn3
Back in the 70's, there was a great recipe for fish filets coated with mayo, then rolled in wheat germ (or other starchy breading) and baked. It was truly wonderful! Of course it was tasty, with all that heart-stopping mayo. I've though of trying it with Greek-style yogurt in place of the mayo, but you can never go home again...
re: meatn3
I use a Japanese Mayo called Kewpie, it has more vinegar in it than standard mayo and if you add some hot sauce like Sriracha you also have a wonderful tasty sushi sauce....sometimes I bake the fish with various mayo mixtures on it, especially soy....it chars and imparts a satisfying grilled like texture.

If there was a chance that the Minnesota State football team would be flat Saturday, on either side of the ball, the answer was no.
The defense posted a three-and-out, and the offense followed with a five-play, 54-yard scoring drive that took less than two minutes.
"We talked all week about how we had to play like (Upper Iowa) was the best team in the nation," senior receiver Adam Thielen said. "It helps that you get a quick stop and a score. It gives you confidence, and it kills any hope they have of getting a win."
In a season that began with the head coach being put on administrative leave, the Mavericks completed its first undefeated regular season with a 70-7 victory over Upper Iowa on Saturday at Blakeslee Stadium, earning the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference and South Division championships.
The victory tied a program record for points in a game and was the second most lopsided victory in program history.
"I feel really blessed and honored to be part of this team," junior defensive end Chris Schaudt said. "It's really exciting."
This was a mismatch from the first play. The Mavericks defense put up four three-and-outs to start the game, while the offense scored on all seven possessions in the first half, amassing 376 yards in the first two quarters and averaging 9.6 yards per play.
"I didn't know we'd start as fast as we did," said coach Aaron Keen, still damp from a postgame water-bucket drenching. "We did an outstanding job of running the ball and dominating time of possession, especially against a good passing team. We were really locked in on special teams and defense, too."
In the first quarter, Andy Pfeiffer, Connor Thomas and Jon Wolf each had a touchdown run, and Adam Thielen had a 70-yard punt return for a touchdown, shortly after having another punt return score called back because of a penalty.
"The guys have been blocking well all year, and we hadn't been able to get one," Thielen said. "I didn't get touched on that first one, and on the second one, I just had to make one guy miss. I didn't have to do much."
In the second quarter, Thomas and backup quarterback Mitch Brozovich had touchdown runs, and Wolf threw a 6-yard scoring pass to Bryce Duncan just before halftime for a 49-0 lead.
"We talked all week about playing for a ring," Keen said. "Sole possession of the conference championship is pretty special, and the guys worked hard to accomplish that. I'm very proud of the way they competed; it was a darn good performance."
Things calmed down in the second half. Jordan Hale made two interceptions, returning the second 14 yards for a touchdown, and Brozovich scored on a 25-yard run that made it 63-0 after three quarters.
After Upper Iowa scored, the Mavericks answered with Kenthen King's 7-yard touchdown run.
"The guys did an outstanding job of maintaining focus and intensity and holding throughout the game," Keen said.
The Mavericks totaled 604 yards of offense, with 492 yards rushing. The defense allowed 233 yards, though 110 yards came against reserves in the fourth quarter.
"That was fun," Schaudt said. "We were feeding off the offense's energy, and when both sides are playing well, it's hard not to succeed."
Brozovich was the top rusher with 91 yards, though six Mavericks rushed for more than 55 yards. Minnesota State had almost seven minutes more in possession time.
"We had the goal of going 1-0 each week, and we did that for 11 weeks," Thielen said. "We really stuck to one-game-at-a-time."
With 10 PAT kicks, junior Sam Brockshus became the program's all-time leading scorer with 224 points.
Minnesota State (11-0) will find out today where it fits in the region playoffs. The Mavericks will be seeded first or second, which means a first-round bye and a home game Nov. 24.
"I feel very special about these guys," Keen said. "Each week, they believed in the 1-0 approach. When you start throwing about goals like conference championships and region championships, it's easy to bypass the things you need to do in practice to do those things. They did things the right way."

Carriage Towne News
---- — EXETER —Adults who did not complete high school or who need to improve basic reading, writing, or math skills are encouraged to come back to school. Because school may not have been a positive experience the first time, returning to school may sound like a scary thing to do. Yet many adults from ages 18 to 75 have taken the courageous step to get their GED or to improve their spelling, reading, and math.
Some of these brave people come to school because they need a GED to get a job or to prepare for job training or college. Others want to be able to help their own children but need to improve their own skills first. Whatever the reason, it's not too late. Adults who want to learn to speak, read or write English are welcome in ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) classes.
Adult Basic Education and GED Preparation day classes meet on Mon., Wed., and Fri., from 9:00 a.m. to noon. Evening classes meet on Monday and Thursday from 6:30 – 9:00 p.m. Registration for day classes is on Mon., September 9, at 9:00 a.m. Registration for evening classes is on Thurs., September 12, at 6:30 p.m.
The GED® test will change at the end of 2013. Anyone who has not completed the current test will need to start all over in January 2014 with a brand new high school equivalency test. The high school equivalency certificate issued by the NH Department of Education will be based on the HiSET exam rather than GED beginning in 2014.
ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) day classes for beginner, intermediate and advanced levels meet Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 8:30 - 10:30 a.m. Evening classess meet Monday & Thursday 6:30 to 9:00 p.m. ESOL class placement and consequent schedule is determined by an intake assessment, so all prospective students should plan to attend registration day. Registration for day classes is on Wed., September 11, at 9:00 a.m. Registration for evening classes is on Mon., September 16, at 6:30 p.m.
ABE and ESOL classes are free. GED course tuition is $80, including books. Limited scholarships are available.
All classes meet at the Tuck Learning Campus, Entrance D, 30 Linden Street, Exeter. For more information, please call Exeter Adult Education at 775-8457 or visit their website at http://adulted,sau16.org.

Make Stunning Schenker Graphs with GNU Lilypond
Occasionally, a melodic note corresponds to a bass note harmonically, but they are not sounded simultaneously and thus are not aligned vertically in the score. In Schenkerian notation, a simple diagonal line connecting the notes suffices to make this connection. Unfortunately, such a line is not as easy to create in Lilypond as in a graphical editor. However, it can be done rather painlessly with \change Staff. When creating our template, we added the line:
\set PianoStaff.followVoice = ##t
to our file. That line combined with \change Staff=LH or \change Staff=RH creates a diagonal line that follows the voice from one staff to the other. Thus, if you create a new voice in the upper staff with the following code:
\override Stem #'transparent = ##t \override NoteHead #'transparent = ##t \override Stem #'length = #0 s1 s4 e4 s \change Staff=LH fis,4 s2 \revert Stem #'transparent \revert NoteHead #'transparent \revert Stem #'length
you will get the first diagonal line in the Bach example, descending from the upper staff to the lower staff. The transparent noteheads and stems cause Lilypond to render only the diagonal line. Using invisible notes also allows you to alter the pitch of the start and end notes to adjust the height of each end of the line. Though this may seem to be overkill, the entire block of code easily can be cut and pasted to another voice or file, with the necessary adjustments being only height and beat placement, making this an easy solution. (If you really want to click and drag the line onto the graph, open the finished graph in an image editor and add the line there.)
The last Schenkerian idiom I cover here is the unfolding symbol. Briefly, this symbol signifies a harmonic connection between two notes in a melody. They typically occur in pairs, showing the use of two concurrent harmonic voices in one melodic line. They are surprisingly easy to create. When two simultaneous notes in a line are to be connected with the unfolding symbol (as in the lower staff of the Bach example), one simply needs two notes connected by beaming brackets, with the commands \stemUp and \stemDown in the appropriate locations. Of course, one must remember to remove stem transparency before creating the unfolding symbol and insert eighth-note skips appropriately to preserve vertical alignment:
\override Beam #'positions = #'(1 . -4) \stemUp g8[ s \stemDown b8] s
Notice the use of beam positions to adjust the height of the stems and the beam angle. When other notes occur between the two notes to be connected with an unfolding symbol, as in the upper staff of the Bach example, put the unfolding notes in one voice and the independent noteheads in another, with appropriate skips in each voice. For example, if the first voice contains:
\override Beam #'positions = #'(3 . -2.5) \stemUp a8[ s s2 \stemDown d8] s \revert Beam #'positions
Creating Schenkerian graphs in a graphical editor like Finale or Sibelius is enough to make many theorists revert to pencil and paper. The process is long and difficult, making changes to finished graphs is nearly impossible and you must do the same things to each graph every time you create a new one. However, with GNU Lilypond and the above tools, any musician can create beautiful Schenker graphs with minimal headaches and maximum control. Lilypond's text-to-music method makes it easy to edit hidden elements, modify finished graphs, and cut and paste code to future projects. Though the methods take time to learn, in the long run Lilypond saves time, energy and frustration, all the while creating stunning output. The tools and examples in this article should put you well on your way to creating beautiful Schenker graphs and some other forms of advanced musical notation with this great application.

Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Sunday Inspiration
This Sunday morning I read an article in the New York Times on an amazing and talented artist/architect.
Her name is Maya Lin.
An Asian American women who started out designing and building monuments.
The article left me wanting to find out more about Maya.
Maya developed a passion for both art and architecture and refused to decide to specialize in one or the other and by doing this she defied the rules.
Most people told her it would not work to her benefit and that she was making a grave mistake by not choosing Art /verses/ Architecture.
Now Maya spends equal amounts of time creating both, in fact, she has taken it a step further by implementing an environmentally conscience mind to the equation.
Maya Lin, an amazing woman, environmentalist & Art-chitect!
I hope she inspires you as well.

If you have Lean Cuisine's Culinary Collection Mushroom Mezzaluna Ravioli in your freezer, don't eat it before checking the product codes.
If the box bears either production code 2311587812 or 2312587812 and the "best before date" appears as DEC 2013, then the product is part of a voluntary recall after three consumers reported finding glass fragments in the ravioli. No injuries have been reported.
According to a press release, "The entree being recalled was produced during early November, 2012. Due to its popularity, Nestle believes very little remains in retail distribution." You can find the production code look for the gray "proof of purchase" panel, located on the right end flap of the package, below the ingredient statement, the press release said.
"Consumers who may have purchased the recalled LEAN CUISINE item should not consume the product, but instead should contact Nestle Consumer Services at (866) 586-9424 or email@example.com for further instructions. Hours of operation are Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., ET and this Saturday, February 9, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Nestle will provide a replacement coupon to reporting consumers and also may make arrangements to retrieve the product for further examination," according to the release.

I need to delete several pm's to make room for new messages. How do I delete them? Dan
Re: Deleting pm
Morning Dan,
On the right side of the screen is a column labeled Mark. Click on each box for the message you want to delete. Then go to the bottom
of the screen and look for a box labeled Mark/Unmark as important. Click on the down arrow just to the right and you will get a
drop-down window with 3 choices, one of those is delete marked messages, click on that and then click on the
Go button.
Re: Deleting pm
Got it. Thanks, Dan
Re: Deleting pm
You can also delete an individual message while you are displaying it. Near the top of the display box, at the right side of the subject line is a small squarish icon with an X in it. Clicking it deletes the message.
Re: Deleting pm

Thanks Jim!!

No Matter What
No Matter What
Yeah, yeah, yeah, aye,
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo,
I say still I stand
And shawty here I am
Never have you seen in you lifetime
A more divine southern rapper with a swag like mine
Facing all kind of time
But smile like I'm fine
Brag with such passion and shine without trying
Believe me pain's a small thing to a giant
I was born without a dime
Out the gutta I climbed
Spoke my mind
And didn't stutter one time
Ali say even the greatest gotta suffer some time
So I huff and puff rhymes
Lyrics so sick with it
Set the standard in Atlanta
How to get get get it
So you up incoming rappers wanna dis just kill it
I'm officially the realest
point blank period
Whether I still live in the hood or just visit
Whatever you can do in the hood I done did it
That's why the dope boys and the misfits feel it
This still his city as long as tip living... (nigga)
I ain't dead (nah)
I ain't done (nah)
I ain't scared (of what!)
I ain't run (from who!)
But still I stand (yeah)
No matterr what people here I am... (yeah)
No matter what remember
I ain't break (never)
I ain't fold (never)
They hate me more (so!)
Yeah I know... (ha ha)
Here I go (yeah)
No matter what shawty here I go (ha ha)
No matter what shawty
You let the blog sites and the magazines tell it
I'm sure to be in jail till 2027
Rather see me in a cell in
Stead of this new McLaren
God'll take you through hell just to get you to heaven
So even know it's heavy the load I will carry
Grin and still bear it
Win and still share it
Apologies to the fans I hope you can understand it
Life can change you directions
Even when you ain't planned it
All you can do is handle it
The worst thing you could do is panic
Use it to your advantage
Avoid insanity manage to conquer
Every obstacle
Make impossible possible
Even when winnings illogical
Loosing's still far from optional
Yeah they wanna see you shot up in the hospital
But when life throw punches, block you counter like a boxer do
Been locked inside mi casa too long
I did a song to make it known that the king lives On (pimping)
Even in solitude

I show you how to do
What you do
You ain't got a clue
All you do is follow dudes
Sound like a lot of dudes
I weather whatever storm
Make it out without a bruise
I understand why
Now with my hands tied
They take shots 'cause if I'm out there it's a land slide
But revenge is best served as a cold dish
And suckers will get served nigga, no shit
guess it was understood for me it was over with
but I don't quit if you ain't notice yet
they couldn't wait to say good night shawty
so they can try to rhyme act and look like shawty
go get a beat from Toomp? and make a hook like shawty
before you know it I'm back
what it look like shawty
I lost my partner and my daughter in the same year
Somehow I rise above my problems and remain here
Yeah and I hope the picture painted clear
If you heart filled with faith then you can't fear
Wonder how I've faced years and I'm still chillen.
Easily let go and let god deal with it.

Allergies in Horses
- By Stacey Oke, DVM, MSc
- May 11, 2010
Allergy is defined as hypersensitivity to one or more allergens, resulting in a marked overreaction of the immune system after repeat exposures. Upon exposure to an allergen, the horse's immune system produces antibodies called immunoglobulin E. The inflammatory mediators have far-reaching effects and can cause smooth muscle constriction and stimulation of the nervous system.
According to experts, equine allergies, which primarily affect the skin and respiratory tract, are increasingly common. They can be performance-limiting, painful, unsightly, and expensive to diagnose and treat. Secondary problems such as self-trauma can occur that require treatment. Horses can develop allergies at any age and, once affected, remain allergic to those substances for the rest of their lives.

As Congress and President Obama work to settle on a budget deal and avoid the self-imposed "fiscal cliff" of mandatory spending reductions, they must take care not to undermine university research, UGA and Georgia Tech's president's argue in a recent opinion column.
"Much of America's competitive advantage in innovation can be linked back to university research," the University of Georgia's Michael Adams and Georgia Tech's G.P. "Bud" Peterson write in a guest column published by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
"In our increasingly global environment, if we reduce our investment in education and research while other countries increase theirs, we could compromise the very advantages that have made America strong."
The presidents call for bipartisan cooperation to resolve budget differences without jeopardizing "the strength in America's educational system."
What do you think should be done about the looming fiscal cliff? Join the conversation on Patch.

Music for the Lunch Bunch has returned.
Every Wednesday in summer, the Johnston County Arts Council stages a classical music performance at lunchtime. This year's first concert featured Mary Ann Nilsson, a pianist from Durham.
Her performance included a lesson in the Baroque and Classical periods. She would explain a detail, such as ornamental trills or polyphony, in which multiple melodies are played at once. Then she would play a piece showing those details, pointing out the different characteristics. Listeners got to hear music by Bach, Galuppi and Haydn.
About 10 people came to First Presbyterian Church in Smithfield to hear her perform. The series will continue through mid-August. Future performers include a harpist, a trumpet and flute duet, violinists and a vocalist.
"It's just another way to make Johnston County a better place for the citizens," said Darlene Williford, executive director of the Arts Council.
Music for the Lunch Bunch has been going on for 30 years, said Molly Olah, who now organizes the concert series. She took over from the late Dorothy Onisko, a classical pianist who started the program.
"It's a chance for people to hear classical music performances, which are pretty far and few between in Johnston County," Olah said.
Olah plays violin in the Fayetteville symphony and finds performers through her network of fellow musicians, many of them local. The Arts Council covers costs and accepts donations at each concert. First Presbyterian donates the use of its sanctuary for the performances.
Olah said the concerts typically draw 15 to 20, but she's hoping to get bigger audiences this summer.
Ann Huckenbeck, 78, of Clayton came to last Wednesday's piano performance. "I come to as many as I can," she said. "I enjoy the presentations, and I love music, and I enjoy seeing the talent that's local."
Huckenbeck especially likes that the series is devoted to classical music. "It's not only educational, but it's also entertaining and refreshing, and it's a real introduction to the cultural talents that we have here in the county," she said.
Anita Liverman of Smithfield also came to last week's performance. "When I'm sitting here listening, I think of all the people who are missing out on this treat," she said.
Liverman called classical music "the good stuff" and said she likes being around people who enjoy the same thing.
Here are this year's remaining performances, which are at 12:15 p.m. in the sanctuary at First Presbyterian Church, 215 S. Third St. in Smithfield. Admission is free. For more information, call 919-938-0306 or email email@example.com.

Danny Marroquin
Bartlesville native Laura Birkett is the kind of lady who walks up to an aging, beer-only bar on the edge of Main Street and sees a promising oasis of Natural Light and sound.
Friday's NMF started out with a disappointment: Football, etc. canceled their set because their drummer broke both his feet (what?!?). Instead, I caught Thee Bad Newes on Opolis' inside stage, where I spent a surprising amount of time throughout the festival. I'm becoming sedentary, and this is proof.
Nevertheless, Thee Bad Newes were fun to watch. I'm all about the DIY attitude and aesthetic, and TBN has both in spades. The duo releases music on cassette tapes (definition) and sings lyrics about working to build a life in community. The acoustic guitar/cello duo's songs were a blend of the gentle and the harsh, as the nylon-stringed acoustic guitar was most often played in a fingerpicking style reminiscent of both The Tallest Man on Earth and Bob Dylan. The cello provided lithe, swooning accompaniment.
Similarly to both aforementioned artists, the vocals were somewhere between a bray and a bark, bringing a raw element to the sound. It was a unique and interesting set, which was sad in light of the comment "This will be our last show for a while."
Rolling on out to Sooner Theater, I caught the back half of FRMR's set, which just about blew my mind and eardrums. The bizarre, carnival-esque tunes that erupt from the many members of FRMR are dizzying in their volume, erratic changes and general chaos. The bass (held down by local staple John Calvin) powered a lot of the tunes, as well as the army of keyboards. The vocals were oddest of all, making me marvel at the fact that some people's musical brains just work so much differently than mine. It was a fascinating set, and I would suggest anyone interested in experimental pop to check out FRMR's variety of it.
My second dose of Riley Jantzen came at the Brewhouse, with him fronting his new band, Riley Jantzen and the Spirits. They play what I call train-whistle rock'n'roll: twangless country rock that crunches pretty hard, but not in the modern rock sort of way. Whatever you want to call it, Riley Jantzen and the Spirits are incredibly good at it. I got shivers twice during their set, and it's rare for me to feel goosebumps once during a good show. It helps that Jantzen's voice molds perfectly into whatever genre he wishes, and that his songwriting sensibilities are razor-sharp. His supporting cast is also a critical element; the bassist get props for being especially vital. I can't recommend this band highly enough to you; if you take nothing from NMF but Riley Jantzen, you're gonna be doing alright.
My second go-round with John Calvin came at Michelangelo's, where John Calvin and the Cavalry played their final show as an entity. Members may be leaving him for far-off places, but they didn't show any signs of distraction in their locked-in, 90-minute set of rock, pop, blues and folk.
John Calvin is most fun performer in Oklahoma to photograph, because his guitar faces are just absolutely incredible. He can make guitar faces because about half of the fun of a Cavalry set is listening to Calvin totally wail on his acoustic guitar, which he turns into an electric with a combination of pedals. He let no opportunity go un-soloed in this set, too. Calvin has come a long way since his first shows, and his current versions of his oldest songs show it. "Song to Make the Stars Fall," one of his oldest songs, sounds completely transformed, from a nice pop tune to a tour-de-force. It's a shame that the Cavalry is splitting up, because they certainly know how to turn a tune inside out.
The set felt a couple tunes too long, but when you're headlining a stage at NMF and it's your last show, you pretty much have permission to throw in the kitchen sink. It was a blast, and the band looked like it was having as much fun as the audience.
Montu's electonic jams brought the audience out to Jagermeister stage. I stopped in to check out the sound, and I thoroughly enjoyed the few tunes I caught. They will be headlining Groovefest next weekend, so if you haven't witnessed their clubby, electronic, party grooves, it will be a good opportunity to see them. Melodies and rhythm galore.

This tank is loose fitting (by design) and feels so light and free! The neckline is low. I purchased the light green, which is sheer, but looks fantastic with a sports bra w/ a contrasting color. The material is very soft, and I look forward to purchasing more colors.

FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — Apparently, the buzz in the air is stronger than usual.
North Texas bee removal specialists say they're getting a sharp increase in calls for help. A dispatcher for one company tells the Fort Worth Star-Telegram (http://bit.ly/13TJv8S ) that she is getting up to 150 calls a day. The owner of another says his four work crews are "slammed" by requests.
Dr. Sonia Swiger of the Texas Agrilife Extension Service says the "swarm season" was extended this year due to a cool spring. She says bees swarm when their hive becomes overcrowded and the queen bee takes her workers elsewhere.
The swarms typically won't hurt people as long as they're left alone.
Texas' summer heat is expected to tamp down the bees' movement.
