HELPFUL TIPS NOT MENTIONED: Being Asian, cooking rice is a skill I guess you're born with because I totally don't see why ANYONE had issues with burning the rice, it being uncooked, soggy, or whatever. I cook rice the same way each time, and it comes out perfect. In saucepan, combine rice, coconut milk, water, sugar & salt. Basically the liquids should reach the area RIGHT BEFORE your cuticle (middle of the white semi-circle on your finger nail but not reaching your cuticle). This is also assuming you've got the rice in the pot leveled, and the tip of your index finger is touching the top of the rice NOT the bottom of the pan. This is at least how I was raised to always know how much water to put in rice for it to always come out right. Bring to boil then simmer covered for 20 min. You cook until rice is tender. After 20 minutes, if there is still liquid or a bit soggy, I turn up the heat a tad, cover, and cook until absorbed and fluffy. It's not rocket science! Always works! Nothing difficult! Then mix in almonds accents (found in salad section, basically a bag of seasoned almonds to top salads) which adds the right amount of flavor to accompany the coconut taste. BTW, my husband was not a big fan of this. I was, but I LOVE rice and the coconut flavor. We ate it with some japanese wings.

I'll admit, when I first tasted this I was disappointed - it was very bland. I think it smelled so good while it was cooking (honestly, it smelled like I was baking coconut cookies) that the mild, subtle flavor was almost a let-down. HOWEVER, as stated in some of the other reviews, this is supposed to be a dish that compliments other Asian cuisine, and in that respect it is a 5-star recipe. Serve this with something spicy (I made it with Easy Chicken Satay and Baked Pork - minus the pork - Spring Rolls from this site) and it is perfection! My guests raved about the rice and I ended up appreciating it more when accompanied by something spicy. I used light coconut milk, and almost made a big mistake by bringing to a boil over HIGH heat (started to burn!) instead of medium heat, but caught it just in time. My rice cooked in about 10 minutes. Will definitely make this again.

I realize that this recipe is supposed to have a very subtle coconut flavor, but I was looking for a real bang for my buck since I was serving this with my Polynesian themed dinner, so for extra flavor I stirred in a few drops of coconut extract and a handful of sweetened shredded coconut. With that it came out perfect- exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

There are 22,000 kids living in homeless and domestic violence shelters in NYC, according to Volunteers for America. In addition to the trauma and chaos of a transient life, imagine the feeling of arriving for the first day of school in September, seeing all your friends toting shiny, full backpacks ready to learn, and you have ... nothing. In 2001, Volunteers of America–Greater New York launched Operation Backpack—a fundraising initiative aimed at providing our city's neediest children with the supplies they need to start the school year right. By filling thousands of backpacks with grade-specific supplies, Operation Backpack relieves stressed families of an impossible financial burden, and most important, they help kids living on the fringes get a fighting chance at a solid education.

TULSA – Muskogee's 63-47 loss to Union at John Q. Hammons Arena on Friday night was a game of contrasts.
One, it was far from the 69-46 Lady Roughers' win over this same team Jan. 17 at Ron Milam Gymnasium.
Moreover, No. 11 Union (14-9, 9-5) won for the eighth time in nine games while No. 2 Muskogee (18-5, 9-5) heads into its home regional opener next Thursday against Moore having lost three of its final four regular season contests. It also lost a chance for an outright Frontier Conference title, which they now will share with the Lady Redskins, Jenks and possibly Bixby.
The Lady Roughers led 19-11 after a quarter before Union ran off 11 unanswered points to start the second period. Muskogee didn't score again until Mari Jackson's free throw at 5:06, then didn't hit from the field until McClure's feed to Aaliyah Wilson on the break following a steal by Alexus Wilson made it 24-22 MHS with 4:30 to go in the half
The Lady Roughers were also 5-of-27 after the half. Down 32-31 at the break, McClure scored the first basket of the second half, then Union, crisp in all facets of its offensive game, took the lead for good.
Six-foot senior guard/forward I'mani Davis, the Lady Redskins' lone offensive threat in the first meeting with 25 points, had 22 points and 14 rebounds in the rematch, but junior forward Kensley Fox, the younger sister of Northeastern State standout Carrington Fox, had four 3-pointers in a 18-point night. Three came in the first five minutes of the third quarter, the last putting Union up 43-33 with 3:04 in the period. It would get below double-digits only once in the fourth quarter and her regulation bucket would give her team a 17-point cushion with just under 2:00 remaining.
Amaya Christon, a junior guard, added 11 points.
Davis, as did Christon, scored both inside around the basket and in transition, leaving the rocket-launchers to Fox.
"Our defense should have been in some of those passing lanes," MHS coach Doyle Rowland said. "If we're not playing defense the way we should, this is what will happen. We're not as big as they are. We're quick, but they're just as quick, so we have to be on our game defensively and rebound with them. They had six or seven offensive rebounds in the second quarter alone."
Overall, Union outrebounded Muskogee 39-27.
McClure led MHS with 14 points. Alexus Wilson had 10.
Other than conference relevancy, nothing else was riding on this contest. The postseason seedings were set prior to this 1-3 Senior Night road tour.
They all count now, and whether the Lady Roughers can shake the doldrums they've been in remains to be seen.
"The teams that are rolling at this point are the ones who will have it going in the playoffs," Rowland said. "So in that respect, they do matter."
Union 58, MHS 39
The Roughers had a mulligan to use, sort of. They will face this same Union team in a game that counts far more than this one did next Friday at Stillwater in the first round of regionals.
Lose that one, and the season's over. Another cold spell like the one they had here Friday, and it will most assuredly be, a half-game worse than last year's 8-15 finish they matched Friday in finishing 4-10 in Frontier Conference play.
No. 12 Union will take a sweep of the home-and-home series and a 14-9 mark to Friday's neutral site, having finished 9-5 in the conference.
Muskogee charged back from a 12-6 deficit to take the lead at 17-14, Lavare Reed's basket giving the Roughers that margin with 6:27 until halftime. They held the lead until Josh Davis made it a 21-20 game, connecting on a jumper at the 2:55 mark.
Then, Muskogee would go scoreless for the final 4 1/2 minutes, not connecting again until David Beasley's jumper from inside the free-throw circle with 2:40 left in the third, making it a 34-22 contest – a scoreless span of just shy of 10 minutes.
"That hurt," said Muskogee coach Josh Berry.
Turnovers – 12 in all – were the main culprit.
The Roughers hit just two fourth-quarter field goals, one each by Anthony King and Quintahj Cherry. The deficit hit 20, 52-32, with 2:32 to play, and topped out at 21 moments later.
Jeff Mead, a stocky 6-7 forward, led Union with 16 points and 11 rebounds. David Beasley had 13 points, seven in the first quarter, for Muskogee. Tramal Ivy had 11 points and six rebounds, tops for his squad.
"We can't turn the ball over like we did," Ivy said. "More than anything offensively that's it."
Union held a 26-16 edge in rebounding.
"They're real big, real strong, and kind of push their way around," Berry added. "We're going to have to have the mindset that we're not going to get the calls against that and just get tough with them.
"Defensively we just need to rotate better and again, match their toughness and approach it like if we're not scoring, then let's not let them score."
Next Friday's contest follows the girls' game which tips at 6:30 p.m.

We (the the players), got thrown under the bus along with the game as a result of THEIR fight with Activision. Im willing to bet they got into the same lazy/comfy mentality so many over-payed chief's do when they find themselves on top.
3arch are sheep! Vince and Adam are ghey! end of story. then again, why should they be loyal to us? we would do the same thing?
QQ me bra!
i want to give my cd key to someone who can take a chunk of the game's commuinty away(hacks?) in the hopes this game will see its grave sooner rather than later.
edit: activion sucks too. i still dont agree with being given an UNFINISHED product, adam and vince need to take responsibility for that! they made the game, it has their stamp of approval, if they ditch activision, thats fine, but they owe us a finished product for our money and should have stayed around long enough to see it through. thanks for the head's up adam/vince. you dooshbags. you cant just wash your hands of this mess and expect us to still like you for it.
what do 60% of americans, adam, vince, and sarah palin have in common? they dont know how to see a commitment through.
i want my **** money back
Ok so the people that actually started Infinity Ward are the reason for Treyarch not being able to produce a game without flaw's or even being able to fix the flaw's?
You my friend are a idiot!
If I remember correctly but I might be wrong so if I am someone will correct me, but I thought that IW wanted to take the series to a new level for the better, forget about IWnet as that did work but also failed wierd I know but it's true. Activision stopped them from doing what they wanted with the games that they make in the series, meaning the follow up games from them were crap.
Treyarch have taken the base code of Call Of Duty World At War from before they fixed all the issues with and used it for Black Op's, which meant it still had the same issues that W@W did on release.
Treyarch didn't really support the PC community with that game either and the answer they gave when asked about fixes was "SOON" but it would then take another 3 - 5 week's for that fix to be released, now I understand they have to test the fixes etc but there was and still is no updates from them for W@W and Black Op's.
Face it we are not worthy of them actually bothering to give information to as we are not playing the shitbox version of the game, they are the only ones who get updates etc.
If anyone is to blame for the way the games have gone it is Activision and Microsoft, they are the real reason.
Microsoft don't want people to stop buying there shitbox, so they make a deal with Activision that means that Xbox get's everything 1st so they have to develop the game, for the xbox and then port it across to the other platform's so that the xbox look's like a better system when it is actually the worse excluding the wii as that is just crap.

Re: DONT blame 3Archkornrocker Apr 10, 2011 7:03 AM (in response to hmwrk)Yeah PC gamers are getting skewed, I'm not buying the new map pack or the next cod series if it comes out in 1 year. Maybe if they wait 2 years. EA's Battlefield 3 time to shine. And they have not made our mod tools for PC, then at least maybe someone could add some fun stuff to this game, the game still barely runs for a lot of people which is probably why no mod tools yet.
Re: DONT blame 3ArchHiptochromniack Apr 10, 2011 2:34 PM (in response to hmwrk)Has anyone ever thought that maybe they don't want to update anything since they aren't making money from online players? Except for the DLC stuff, no income... I know I wouldn't want to update something I created if it was for multiplayer online use and didn't charge for it. I find Black Ops to be an improvement to MW2 but not as good as Cod4. Besides, why did they call it Black Ops when you do more recon missions in Cod4 than this one? There's more undercover missions but still... Match the title or change it!
Re: DONT blame 3Archihatebugs Apr 10, 2011 3:00 PM (in response to hmwrk)every game is unfinished when released, it are the players that report the bugs so the game designers are fixing it.
ofcourse they work on regular shifts, they are most probably getting paid 40 hours a week, and wont do overtime becouse of a whiney little player.
ea games, activision, 2k, they all make unfinished games. even microsoft is delivering unfinished products as windows vista and windows 7 crashes sometimes. too bad that the world cant sue a company

BATON ROUGE—State health officials remind Louisiana residents that West Nile virus remains a threat, as the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals today confirms nine new West Nile virus cases. Also, one death from West Nile occurred this week. This year, Louisiana is experiencing the most West Nile cases since its 2002 outbreak year, with 312 cases and 12 deaths from the disease reported.
"This has been a very active year for West Nile virus, and it is a firm reminder that this disease is a threat to all areas of our state," said DHH Secretary Bruce D. Greenstein. "We've already had many cases and, unfortunately, 12 deaths. We also continue to see parishes reporting their first human cases of West Nile for the year in our weekly report. This continued increase, even as we get later into the year, shows why it's important for everyone to protect their health and avoid mosquito bites."
Humans contract West Nile when they are bitten by mosquitoes infected with the virus. When people are infected with West Nile, the virus will affect them one of three ways. West Nile neuroinvasive disease is the most serious type, infecting the brain and spinal cord. Neuroinvasive disease can lead to death, paralysis and brain damage. The milder viral infection is West Nile fever, in which people experience flu-like symptoms. The majority of people who contract West Nile will be asymptomatic, which means they show no symptoms. These cases are typically detected through blood donations or in the course of other routine medical tests.
There are five new neuroinvasive disease cases reported this week, from Calcasieu (2), Iberia (1), Lafayette (1) and Orleans (1) parishes.
There are four new West Nile Fever cases, from Ascension (2), Jefferson Davis (1) and Livingston (1) parishes.
There were no new asymptomatic cases reported this week.
DHH issues a weekly Arbovirus Surveillance Report that details cases detected thus far by parish, which is published here.
The most active year for West Nile cases in Louisiana was 2002, when the state experienced 328 cases and 24 deaths. For 10 years, state health officials have conducted robust surveillance year-round, which includes working with doctors, hospitals and health care providers around the state to track human cases and reminding people to be vigilant in avoiding mosquito bites.
Fight the Bite
Local mosquito control partners and abatement districts remain vigilant in keeping the population of infected mosquitos under control, but everyone has a personal responsibility to avoid mosquito bites.
Health officials recommend:
Another effective way to prevent mosquito bites is to drain stagnant water from around homes and property to prevent mosquitoes from breeding and swarming:

Weatherford Democrat
— By LOU TISCIONE
The giving of the law and God's ordination of civil authority are two blessings of God that intersect each other.
The blessing of the law is stated in Deuteronomy 11:26-28. It was given to the Church of the Old Testament.
"See, I am setting before you today a blessing and a curse: the blessing, if you obey the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you today, and the curse if you do not obey the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside from the way that I am commanding you today, to go after other gods that you have not known."
The Apostle Paul wrote to the churches in Galatia, "Why then the law? It was added because of transgressions…" (Galatians 3:19)
He called believers to "walk by the Spirit," (Galatians 5:16). Believers live by the Spirit by applying the word of God in their lives.
He later wrote to the church in Rome, "For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad …" (Romans 13:3)
He reminded the members of the church that God is the one who ordains all authority. Those who are in authority are His ministers for the good and welfare of all people.
In Deuteronomy 11:26-28 and Galatians 3:19 the focus is on the Law of God, which is the word of God and, more precisely, the Ten Commandments.
In Romans, Paul was referring to civil authority and by implication civil laws. God is the one who ordains all civil authority. God's purpose is to provide for an ordered society. Those who are governmental officers are God's ministers for the good of all. They are charged with keeping order so as to promote good. As God is the source of all that is good, civil authorities and civil laws are subordinate to God's law.
The Bible declared a situation in which there was a conflict between God's law and man's law. When the leaders of Israel commanded the Apostles to cease preaching the resurrection of Jesus Christ, Peter and John responded, "We must obey God rather than men." (Acts 5:29)
To help understand the importance of the law and law in general there are, what the Protestant Reformers called, three uses of the law as they are revealed in scripture. The first use of the law is to point to man's hopelessness and his desperate need for a savior. The second use of the law is to restrain men who are untouched by any care for what is just and right unless compelled by hearing the dire threats in the law. The third use of the law is to guide the life of a believer in pleasing God.
These descriptions of the three uses of the law have been paraphrased from Calvin's Institutes of the Christian Religion, book 2, chapter 7, sections 9-10. John Calvin articulated what the Bible teaches concerning the law in Exodus 20, Deuteronomy 11:26-28, Galatians 3 and 5 and Romans 13.
The intersection of the blessing of the law and civil authority is the second use of the law. It is the means given by God to put bounds around sinful mankind. It is this use of the law that is the foundation of every society.
It is accurate to say, "All truth is God's truth," especially when speaking of the rule of law. We are experiencing the disregard of law by duly elected members of our government. We read about our executive branch ignoring laws enacted by our legislative branch of government.
Apparently we have laws that don't apply to all. Those who have been charged by the people to execute and enforce our laws only do so selectively. This makes for a dangerous time.
May we once again understand that it is because of God's blessing of law that we will be able to guard those rights that He has given all men: life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Lou Tiscione is pastor of Weatherford Presbyterian Church (PCA).

A wave of pink is flooding stores everywhere, as retailers participate in Breast Cancer Awareness Month. For the savvy shopper, it's an opportunity to donate to a good cause while snagging unique, pink-hued items.
Across the North Shore several stores are offering pink items for sale. But before you plunk down your green for some pink, the nonprofits behind Breast Cancer Awareness Month want you to check the label.
Jenna Glazer, director of development for Young Survival Coalition (YSC), a global organization dedicated to helping young women who are diagnosed with breast cancer, said that buyers should be on the lookout for a label or tag that tells where the money from the purchase goes.
"If you walk into Bed Bath & Beyond and see something with a pink ribbon and no information about where the money is going, chances are it doesn't benefit the cause," she said.
Glazer said the best way for consumers to ensure that pink products are legit is to visit the non-profit's website for a list of its partners. YSC, which is based in New York City, lists Oakley, Nutra Nail, Liv/giant bikes, Ford and Urban Outfitters as some of its partners.
The amount of money donated to the nonprofit is also key, Glazer said. With YSC's partnership with Oakley, for instance, $20 from each pair of sunglasses goes right to the nonprofit, which offers resources, connections and outreach to young women with breast cancer.
And for a group like YSC, which is on the smaller end of the spectrum of breast cancer awareness groups such as Susan G. Komen For the Cure, the check it receives is just part of the benefit. Each time YSC partners with a company, Glazer said, "It raises the profile of nonprofit and gets the word out to the people who need us."
Gray a women's clothing shop in Winnetka is teaming up with local designer VIKA, who specializes in special occassion dresses, jackets and tops, for a two week trunk show and special event with ten percent of proceeds being donated to the American Cancer Society. Also, if you make a $10 donation, you will receive a free pair of earrings.
Posh Intimate Essentials in Highland Park has 25 percent off bras and panties through the month of October. (Some exclusions apply.) At the end of the month the store will make a donation to the Susan G. Komen For the Cure.
If your business is offering items that benefit breast cancer awareness, tell us about it in the comments below.
Here are a few pink products available online that breast cancer nonprofits are putting their names behind:
- The Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF) has partnered with Barnes & Noble, which is offering a pink leather Nook cover with a stitched ribbon for about $35, with $5 going to the foundation.
- Susan G. Komen for the Cure sells its own official merchandise on its website. It has pink leather business card holders for $15 each, as well as candles, coasters, neckties and car accessories.
- Hard Rock will celebrate its thirteenth season of Pinktober with a variety of merchandise, including a pink honeycomb robe for $80. 75 percent of the profits from each item sold goes to the Caron Keating Foundation.
Some retailers don't enter contracts with nonprofits but still donate a portion of their proceeds. Team Cheer, a website that offers gear for cheerleaders, is donating 5 percent of its pink profits to BCRF. From socks to bows to briefs, the company's Cheer for a Cure collection includes products from $5 to about $25. You won't see it advertised on the BCRF website, but according to foundation staff, Team Cheer has made donations for the past two years.
If you think a pink product is suspicious or you are wondering about the relationship between the company and the cause, give the non-profit a call. Representatives are usually happy to verify whether a company is really giving.
"I've actually gotten Google alerts and seen people say they are partnering with us and they aren't," Glazer said, adding that she follows up on those alerts and asks for a check from the retailer that made the claim. Sometimes, she said, retailers were unaware that they needed a contract with YSC and will send along the check happily.
But in some cases, she said, "I never hear back from them."

Revelers walk in a jazz funeral to honor Katrina victims on August 25, 2010 in New Orleans, Louisiana. The fifth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina is August 29.
After five years, there are still so, so many questions.
Can the Gulf Coast make it all the way back — not just from Hurricane Katrina, and not just from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, and not just from the recession, but from the toxic multiplier effect of all three?
The answer to all of those questions, Gulf Coast leaders, environmental scholars and economists say, is yes.
The first thing these people — the rebuilders and analysts and planners who have wrestled with Katrina's legacy for five years — want you to understand is that it's still bad in the Gulf Coast:
And yet:
"Despite all these three shocks" — Katrina, the recession and the oil spill — "New Orleans is rebounding and, in some ways, beginning to rebound better than before," says Amy Liu, a senior fellow at the nonprofit Brookings Institution, who co-directed a massive five-year overview of the Katrina recovery for the Greater New Orleans Community Data Center.
• Full report: The New Orleans Index at Five (PDF)
In Mississippi, says Gov. Haley Barbour, "almost anywhere on the coast, except the very far west, you couldn't really tell anything had happened if you didn't know what it looked like before."
"Our beaches are beautiful; the waters are clear; the fishing is fine," he said.
'Not about survival but about resurrection'
Remember, the response to Katrina was a failure so complete that it became political shorthand, like "Watergate" and "yellowcake uranium." Today, political critics are always on the hunt for what they can flourish as "Obama's Katrina" — a signature breakdown that tars Barack Obama's presidency the way Katrina tarred George W. Bush's.
But national assumptions about the Gulf Coast are a poor reflection of what's actually happened there over the past five years, say Liu and her co-author, Allison Plyer, deputy director of the New Orleans data center. They are part of a growing community of environmental and economic specialists who are trying to overturn the common view that the hurricane and the oil spill were ultimately crushing blows to the Gulf Coast.
It's a view taking hold with leaders at all levels of government, who say that while we should never lose sight of the destruction Katrina caused, it's just as important to recognize the self-reliance and entrepreneurial spirit it unleashed.
Mayor Mitch Landrieu, for example, says New Orleans' schools, arts communities and neighborhoods have blossomed. The future, he says, "is not about survival but about resurrection."
Mayor Les Fillingame of Bay St. Louis, Miss., where downtown is thriving again, says his city is "in full-mode revitalization."
"I feel we are well beyond recovery," he says.
The takeaway, says Scott S. Cowen, president of Tulane University in New Orleans and an economist by training, is that "overwhelmingly, there are more positives than negatives five years after Katrina."
Hurricane sounded alarm for long-term planning, engagement
What happened? Basically, Katrina happened.
Before Katrina, New Orleans never had a great deal of civic engagement, says Frederick D. Weil, a sociologist at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge. That's why the city actually shrank in population even as the rest of the so-called New South was booming over the last half-century.
But instead of retreating into their historical parochial shells, New Orleanians came together, Weil says in a project on civic engagement after Katrina, funded by the National Science Foundation. In the absence of working government structures, "communities were motivated to work together to further their recovery," Weil concludes in the paper, which was excerpted in the New Orleans data center report.
Weil writes:
"Citizens had an incentive to cooperate and provide each other with mutual assistance; communities had an incentive to partner with one another; elites had an incentive to accept leadership initiatives from outside their traditional ranks; and government had an incentive to accept offers of assistance and partnership from engaged citizens and communities.
"A virtuous circle of growing mutual trust and civic engagement began to displace the old vicious circle of distrust and disengagement."
• Read Frederick D. Weil's full report on civic engagement after Katrina
In their report, Liu and Plyer, citing Weil's research, conclude that "since 2005, New Orleanians have arguably undertaken more major reforms simultaneously than any other modern American city."
Even as poverty and crime rates remain stubbornly high, the overall quality of life is rising, thanks significantly to grass-roots campaigns to build activism in the arts and in schools and to build new commerce from the ground up, they say.
There are more nonprofit arts organizations now than ever before, at 30 per 100,000 population, the IRS says. That's two-thirds more than there were in 2004, and it's 2½ times the national rate.
New Orleans' schools are arguably better than they have ever been, with 95 percent of children attending schools that meet state standards in Jefferson Parish and 59 percent in Orleans Parish — up from 80 percent and 28 percent, respectively, in 2003, the state Education Department reports.
And at 450 of every 100,000 adults, the proportion of residents starting new businesses is more than double what it was before Katrina and 41 percent above the national average, state records show.
That self-reliance is particularly important nowadays, because a hurricane like Katrina probably isn't a one-time event, Landrieu says, and the New Orleans levee system still hasn't been bolstered sufficiently to withstand the "category 4 and 5 storms we know are coming our way."
Vera Triplett, a resident of the historic Gentilly neighborhood who helped found the Gentilly Civic Improvement Association in the wake of the hurricane, said "the lesson learned" after Katrina is that "we were not going to make any headway at all if we waited on the government."
"I can tell you that in the Gentilly community, 100 percent everything we got done was because of citizens," Triplett said this week at a neighborhood forum on the recovery.
Recovery spending buffers against recession
Katrina is also why the Gulf Coast weathered the recession that began in late 2008 better than almost any other region of the country, says Douglas G. Duncan, chief economist for Fannie Mae. The region underwent a mammoth rebuilding boom after the hurricane, work that didn't stop as the national economy took a dive.
The recession had a real effect, economists say, especially in stalling sales of all those new homes that were being built. But in the main, federal dollars flowing to the region to rebuild infrastructure encouraged hiring, and once the recession hit, they cushioned the impact. Employment is below pre-Katrina levels, as it is across much of the country. But at about 7 percent, the overall unemployment rate is 2½ percentage points lower than the national average, thanks to strong growth in white-collar professions, including the law, insurance and higher education.
Those jobs are better-paying than the traditional shipbuilding and engineering jobs they're replacing, according to U.S. Labor Department statistics. In New Orleans, in fact, average wages have caught up with the national average for the first time in 25 years, having climbed 14 percent since 2005.
The big unknown, of course, is what impact the April 20 Deepwater Horizon oil spill will ultimately have. The fishing industry suffered a severe shock, especially among immigrant and refugee communities, and potential longer-term health and environmental effects still need to be assessed.
While industry and government leaders and scientists disagree about how much of the spilled oil remains in the Gulf of Mexico, tourism-reliant coastal communities from Florida to Louisiana say the goop has been scrubbed from their beaches, which are open for business.
Perception is as much a problem here as reality,because tourism drives 15 percent of employment along the Gulf Coast, and "the true wild card" is whether leisure travelers are getting that message, the independent economic forecasting venture Oxford Economics said in a report last month for the U.S. Travel Association.
• Full report from Oxford Economics (PDF)
One of the legacies of Katrina, economic analysts and disaster officials say, is the vast network of services and resources that sprouted after the hurricane. When the Deepwater Horizon blew up, they were in place and ready to go.
Those organizations learned a number of "critical lessons" about coordinating efforts and communicating timely information during the response to Katrina, says Maureen Y. Lichtveld, associate director of the population sciences program at Tulane University.
There was abundant good information immediately when the oil rig exploded, especially on Web sites created by government agencies and by reliable, scientifically vetted community organizations, she said at an oil-spill workshop organized last month by the National Academies and the Department of Health and Human Services.
Liu's project recommends that the network of agencies and community groups that formed under such great hardship after Katrina serve as a model for the longer-term environmental recovery from the oil spill. That's because the experience of Katrina left residents of the region "better equipped to emerge from future shocks," Plyer, Liu's co-author, says.
Plyer says: "The oil spill exposes unfinished business from Katrina. It's actually an opportunity."

From City News Service --
The operator of the troubled San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station is expected to submit a restart plan for one of the two shuttered reactors about three weeks from today, but federal regulators say it may take them months to vet it.
At a recent U.S. Senate committee hearing on nuclear safety, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Chairwoman Allison Macfarlane said San Onofre operator Southern California Edison informed the NRC that a restart plan would be submitted by the end of the first week of October.
Once that happens, she said, NRC staff will review the plan in a process that "will be longer than days and weeks ... it will be on the order months,'' the Los Angeles Times reported.
As for the second shuttered reactor, Edison has no immediate plans to submit a restart plan for it, according to the newspaper.
San Onofre's two active reactors were both shut down in January.
One was shut down for planned repairs while the other was shut down abruptly when on Jan. 31, a faulty piece of equipment leaked a small amount of radioactive steam into the environment.
The incident led to the discovery that many more steam generator tubes were wearing out more quickly than expected.
In November, when the plant will have been out of service for nine months, state law will trigger an investigation in which the commission must consider lowering rates.
The investigation could eventually result in refunding money to customers so they would not pay the costs of a plant that is producing no power. Anti-nuclear advocates urge authorities to keep the plant shut.
Hundreds of stories, photos and videos in chronological order detailing the history of the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station over the last two years are available here at our Patch topic page.

LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) — A second man charged in the 2010 shooting death of a registered sex offender during an apparent robbery has reached a plea deal and must serve 15 years in prison.
The Lubbock Avalanche-Journal (http://bit.ly/Uq05Zy ) reports Devante Jones pleaded guilty Thursday to robbery.
Jones and two other men were indicted last year on capital murder charges in the December 2010 slaying of 52-year-old Brian Brinson of Wilson. The victim's body was found in his car in downtown Lubbock.
Arenn Davis in April pleaded guilty to murder and was sentenced to 25 years in prison. Zeven Sanders faces trial Dec. 17.
Records show Brinson was convicted in Oregon of sexually assaulting a 15-year-old boy in 2002 and of manslaughter in the 1988 beating death of an 8-year-old girl at a commune.

But the real problem is this impression that you have to be born 80% as smart as Einstein to get into this field, and that the learning curve is impossible for regular people. That's totally wrong. Average intelligence plus persistence is all you need.
What you really need is to deal with this anti-intellectualism that's so popular in the culture today, and replace it with genuine curiosity, a joy of discovery, and a delight at learning new things.
Do that, and the rest will naturally follow, and not just in software development.

— By SHARRON HUDSON
MILLSAP – With signs of spring all about us, people are energized and out and about more. While students and school personnel are looking forward to Spring Break (March 11-15) there is much activity on all three of our campuses.
The high school is already abuzz with prom plans as the event will be May 11 at Clark Gardens. The theme chosen is "Masquerade." There are also softball, baseball, track, and power lifting contests in action. The Middle School Beta Club recently enjoyed their convention at the Gaylord Texan in Grapevine, and members are working toward the 20 hours of community service that is required of them by the organization each school year.
Over at the elementary, second graders recently had the privilege of a visit from a dentist and his staff in conjunction with February being Dental Health Month. Dr. McLemore and his staff make it a yearly tradition to come and teach the children many aspects of dental health, with the highlight being a giant plastic tooth they bring for demonstration. With so much going on the students and staff need a vacation-hope they all have a great one!
With an update on the waterline project that Cool and North Rural Water Supply Corp. are working on, Cool City Secretary Belle Brownlee had much information. Included in this upgrade are residents of the Cool area, with it reaching all the way to folks who live two miles north of Millsap. The project is on schedule and there is two years allotted to finish it. It includes an 8-inch line and fire hydrants. The construction crew, Whitewater Construction, of Waco, has about a quarter of the line laid. The main thing the City of Cool does in the project is facilitate under Grant Works, Austin. All involved are doing a very good job, even notifying consumers on days the water must be off. The completion and all that goes with it are something for customers to look forward to.

Tube Invasion: Oakley's Charismatic Wells Brothers Steal the Spotlight on Video and Film
They're from that piece of gorgeous land in the middle of the Pacific called New Zealand. Add to that: They definitely know how to light up the screen. Oh yeah, and they shred too.
Oakley's dynamic ski duo of Byron and Jossi Wells have been the center of attention in some of the sickest ski videos out or set to launch.
What are we talking about? We can start by introducing winterofwells.com – where people can get a whiff of why these two are, or will be dazzling fans everywhere. The Winter of Wells documentary series, which has completed its first year of shooting, is set to play on FuelTV soon. There are three shows planned for this 2010 southern hemisphere season, with episode 15 dropping shortly. Are you pumped yet? If not, check out this teaser…then make sure you go watch the actual show on Fuel:
But wait, we're not done yet! We've got more Wells mania where that came from. Tim Pierce, the dude who created the Winter of Wells, peered deeply into the soul of Jossi Wells himself during an on-camera video that featured Jossi and his so very attractive Oakley gear.
Be on the lookout for the Wells brothers as they continue to handle business onscreen and in their already successful careers on skis.

Some star power has been added to an independent movie being filmed in Terre Haute.
Actor Richard Bryant — popularly known for his portrayal of Pvt. Jeremy Sherwood on Lifetime TV's "Army Wives" — has been cast as the father of a 9-year-old Terre Haute girl who is abducted.
Bryant, who goes by the nickname "Bubba," is now filming at the home of Candy Beard, the director, writer and executive producer of "Vanished."
"We're just telling the story of a child who gets taken in broad daylight, and the emotional rollercoaster of that event," said Bryant before filming on Wednesday. "When I first read the script, I thought that it's very real to human emotion and very revealing."
Though he has no children of his own, the 28-year-old actor said he can relate to how a father would feel if his child were abducted. Bryant said he is close to his sister's four sons, and he enjoys taking the boys fishing near his South Carolina home.
In the short time he has been in Indiana, he has bonded with young co-star Katelyn Atterson Barnhart of Clinton. She is the child who gets taken.
"She's very quick. Very smart," Bryant said of his co-star, looking at the 9-year-old and saying, "You probably hear that a lot."
On Tuesday, Katelynn and her movie dad "went fishing" for scenes filmed at Deming Park.
"We didn't catch anything, which is not like me," Bryant said. "I'm a good fisherman."
Katelynn had a small part in Beard's earlier film, "This Promise I Made," which was shot in Clinton. She played a flower girl in a wedding.
For this film, she has a lot of lines to remember, even though she "vanishes" early in the movie. To memorize her lines, Katelynn said she sings them to herself, creating a tune to help her remember.
Bryant said he memorizes his lines by repeatedly reading them and then visualizing how his character would say them.
"I go to the reason of why he would say these things, and the words are an afterthought," Bryant explained. "You can say 'pass the ketchup' a million different ways."
Beard said she is pleased with how the filming is progressing. And she is thrilled to have cast Bryant, who is her favorite actor. She said she was disappointed when his character in "Army Wives" was killed in combat after five seasons. But that also prompted her to reach out to his agent to see if he was interested in her independent film.
Beard said she has been wrapped up in the emotion of some of the scenes filmed so far.
"We had a scene where it was hard for me to yell 'Cut,'" she said. "He was bringing the story to life."
Many of the scenes shot with Bryant will be filmed in her home, where her family moved just four months ago. The living room of the home is decorated with photos of the "vanished" child Kimberly Bennett, portrayed by Katelynn, and her parents, Chris (Bryant) and Carla (Caitlin Smith). The couple also has two younger children in the film.
Beard said filming will continue through February, in part because the movie occurs during an eight-month period of time. She said that Brian Neal of Indianapolis is the assistant cameraman, and her son, Daniel Beard, is working on the editing process as the filming proceeds. She expects to have a rough cut of the film by April 2014.
Beard has already written 13 movie scripts, a series of children's books and seven novels. She started her production company, Dreams Come True Films, in 2011.
"Vanished" has received a lot of online publicity, especially through its Facebook page (www.Face
book.com/VanishedFilm) where updates about the cast and filming are regularly posted.
As for Bryant, he will be in Terre Haute until he catches a flight home next Thursday.
Interestingly, he found a personal connection to Terre Haute that he did not know existed when he learned that some of his father's relatives reside in the city. He said he plans to visit with them this weekend.
"I'm glad I got to come up here," he said of the film project. "This is fun for me, to be able to do the sport I've been practicing for a long time. I can't wait to get into the nitty gritty."

---- — HAVERHILL — Even after retiring from ministry, the Rev. Jim Gustafson is looking for ways to make the word of God accessible to people.
Gustafson, 78, recently published, "psalms/tweets: Psalms in Contemporary Style," a 175-page spiral-bound book in which he rewrote all 150 psalms as tweets using slang and modern expressions.
Gustafson condensed the psalms to 50, 20, or in some cases 10 percent of the original text, although many do not adhere strictly to the 140 characters used in Twitter. He said it did not take him long to rewrite the psalms, usually 10 to 20 minutes.
"I looked at the various translations of the psalm and reduced it. I wanted to keep the main point and emotional impact," he said.
He began posting the tweets on his Facebook page and received positive feedback from friends.
"The psalms are a journal of Old Testament people. The psalms are a longer statement of how a person is feeling about God and circumstances. It shows the good, the bad and the ugly of human life," Gustafson said.
One sample tweet is psalm 70 which reads "Quick, Lord! Rescue me! Enemies are out to destroy and humiliate me, saying, "Aha! We've pinned him down!" Let them know humiliation and shame. But, hurry Lord, I am weak and need You to save me!"
Gustafson said he uses the psalms as a devotion.
"It's a way to think about the Lord, to be in the Lord and get closer to Him," he said.
If King David would see his psalms turned into tweets, Gustafson said he would be pleased.
"I think so. He was a down-to-earth guy, who didn't mince his words. They show the real slice of life. I find that refreshing and right where the rubber meets the road and I like that," he said.
Gustafson said he decided to publish the book in a spiral-bound format so readers can lay the book flat and write their own thoughts on the lines beneath the tweeted psalm.
He has a bachelor's degree in philosophy from Wheaton College, a master's degree from Fuller Seminary and a doctorate in philosophy from Boston University.
Gustafson moved to Haverhill in 1959 and started ministering part-time at West Congregational Church. He served as minister at the church from 1959 to 1970 and as associate from 1978 to 2000. He continues to preach at the church when needed and remains the church organist.
In addition to West Congregational, he has been conducting short-term missions to the Rus-Rus tribe in Honduras. He has also traveled to India and Kenya to teach philosophy for the past 20 years.
He has blogged about his travels to Kenya and India and published them in the book "Outta My Mind." The statue of "The Thinker" is on the cover.
Gustafson used his vast research, knowledge of the church and reminiscences from longtime members to write "Wheat & Weeds in a Country Parish: The History of West Congregational Church." The 244-page book recounts the church's 275 years. He also wrote the textbook, "The Quest for Truth — an Introduction to Philosophy," currently in its fifth edition
Gustafson said he received two calls from God to join the ministry. The first came while his mother was driving from Raymond, N.H. back to Boston and he looked up at the steeple of the Congregational Church. He was sitting in philosophy class at Wheaton College when he felt God calling him to serve as a teacher in secular colleges.
He taught at the former White Pines College, which later became Chester College, Chester, N.H. He has been teaching at Northern Essex Community College for the past 31 years where he is now an adjunct professor of philosophy and religion. For the past 10 years, he has been teaching an online introduction to philosophy of world religion at the Haverhill school.
Gustafson and his wife Eleanor have three children, Eric, Rachel and Aaron Lee. His wife Eleanor is also an author having just completed her sixth novel.
To get a copy of "psalms/tweets: Psalms in Contemporary Style," through Gustafson by contacting him at firstname.lastname@example.com for a donation to the Benevolent Fund of the West Congregational Church in Haverhill.
