No, the black bean recipe.
Huh. Weird. I edited it - does it work now?
Yes, thanks!
Those black beans look yummy. The two times I've been to Guatemala they've served black beans at every meal including breakfast. Fortunately, I like them.
I just made black beans this morning, too. No recipe - sautéed chopped onion (red), celery and carrots, tossed in some salt and a little ground cumin after the aromatics had sweated, then added some chopped garlic and cooked that for a minute, and then added a couple of bay leaves and a thyme bundle along with the pre-soaked beans and water. Cooked it for about two hours. Towards the end I added the grated zest of one lemon, and when it was done, I finished it with the juice of the same lemon. Delicious.

I made crepes today with a no waiting recipe for the first time, it tuned out great!
If anyones going to Nice for Worlds, don't forget to taste crepes!
I saw a recipe for no carb pancakes which are basically creamcheese crepes. I decided to give it a try with a few tweaks since I don't care about a few carbs (actually, I prefer them, haha). The recipe called for:
2 eggs
2 ounces cream cheese
1 packet sugar substitue (or a little sugar)
Blend all together (I used my Magic Bullet)
This comes out super super thin so I added in about 2-3 tablespoons of flour and 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder after blending, I just stirred it in so as to not over mix. They came out much closer to pancakes this way but still not nearly as much flour. I also added about 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and that really added some nice flavor. My only complaint was that they were kind of spongy. How would I fix that? More baking powder? Maybe 2 eggs was too much? It only makes 4 medium pancakes so I think I could cut out an egg and maybe add in some milk/water if it looks too dry. Eggs are rather heavy...

It's 3:48 here on the left coast, which means a. procrastinating at work and b. thinking about dinner. In particular, I'm thinking about the Raw Pad Thai I made last night that's sitting in the fridge just a-waiting for me to get home.
I was given some home-made, jarred preserved lemon. What do I do with it? Does it need to sit for a while, liked pickled things? It's been jarred a couple of weeks. Should it go in the fridge?
Artemis, let me know how the raw pad Thai is! It looks delicious!
Not sure how much might be online, but it's a staple in the fabulous Moroccan dishes of Claudia Roden - all her books are excellent, and I'd say a jar of homemade preserved lemons is a great excuse to buy one!
On another note, the Masters put me in a Southern mood this weekend, so I made butter for the buttermilk more than the butter, then made buttermilk biscuits, served of course with the homemade butter (or in hubby's case, his chicken gravy).
Is there anything more sublime that a good biscuit? I used a basic recipe from Better Homes and Gardens, and for the butter, I did the box grater trick that I've shared before for pie crusts. So easy, so flaky and light!
And I still have a bit of buttermilk left over to make a salad dressing tonight.
I use preserved lemon mostly in couscous salads, or to make Moroccan hummus. (Moroccan hummus is one of my 2 favourite hummus variations. Start with the basic recipe, then season with preserved lemon, mint, garlic, cinnamon, cumin, and harissa. You'll never want to go back to ordinary hummus again!)
The raw pad thai, btw, was extremely yum! It's not quite the same comfort food level as "regular" pad thai, because it doesn't have the carb factor, and also because it's cold, but it's very satisfying nonetheless. I plan on making it frequently in the summer. I also like that it can be made ahead, unlike a lot of Raw foods.
Hi folks - it's quite warm here in New Joisey and we're having a cool supper - one of my favorites tweaked from a Bobby Flay recipe - even better the next day!
Roast vegetables of your choice in 400 degree F oven for 20-25 minutes until soft and somewhat caramelized - cut into 1.5 inch pieces, drizzle with olive oil, sea salt & pepper and roast away - I use asparagus, yellow squash, red sweet peppers, and whole garlic cloves (enough to cover a cookie sheet).
While those are roasting, toast 1.5 cups of Israeli (aka Grande) couscous until just starting to brown. Add vegetable broth (amount per product directions), bring to boil, then cover and simmer for about 10-12 minutes until tender. Drain any excess liquid.
Make a vinaigrette of 1 small chopped shallot, 4 tablespoons red wine vinegar, 3 tablespoons lemon juice, some lemon zest, salt & pepper to taste, and 1/2-3/4 cup olive oil.
Toss couscous, warm vegetables with roasting juices and vinaigrette together. Once it cools a bit, throw in some crumbled feta if you like.
So delicious and quite pretty as well for entertaining. I've read that quinoa makes a nice substitute for the couscous grande also.
Had to share this one...
Acorn Squash with Roasted Garlic Custard - Serves 8
Nutritional Information:
Serving Size ½
Calories 147
Calories from Fat 58
Total Carbohydrate 18
- 2 acorn squash (green or orange)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 head elephant garlic (or regular garlic for a stronger taste)
- 2 1/2 cups milk
- 3 whole eggs
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- Preheat oven to 375°F using a sharp knife, cut the squash in half lengthwise. Using a sturdy spoon, scoop out the seeds and fibrous membranes.
- Rub squash halves lightly with half the oil and season with salt, pepper and a sprinkling of brown sugar. Place on a baking sheet. Use the remaining oil to coat the whole garlic bulb. Place it on the tray with the squash.
- Bake the squash for 30 minutes. Remove and cool to room temperature.
- Bake the garlic for an hour or until very soft. Remove and cool. Cut the garlic in half and squeeze out the soft cooked garlic into a bowl. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, in a sauce pan, bring the milk to a simmer. Whisk the eggs and garlic together. Gradually whisk the hot milk into the eggs. Season with the salt, pepper and nutmeg.
- Prepare a baking dish that will hold all four halves of squash. Pour one cup of water into the bottom. Cut a small sliver off the bottom of each squash to stabilize it in the baking dish. Place the squash in the baking dish, in the water.
- Pour enough egg mixture into the halved squash to fill the cavity to a half inch from the top. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until custard is firm. Remove from the oven and serve warm. Enjoy!

Not. Recipe, but yesterday and today I ate salad made with lettuce I grew myself and picked yesterday and today. first time I ever grew anything and it came out great. Broccoli and carrots to come, and lots more lettuce.
Have you ever had carrots out of a garden? They are amazing. So sweet and delicious. You are going to wish you grew a lot more. They are the best done in a crockpot with a roast, tender and sweet. Mmmm!
"Michelle would never be caught with sausage grease staining her Vera Wang." - rfisher
I did plant carrots, too, but they won't be ready for another 6 weeks or so.
I have sadly never had success with root veggies. Radishes are supposed to be one of the easiest things to grow, and I tried horseradish too - epic fails!
All I get are spindly, tiny little roots, no matter how I've prepared the soil, given the space, etc. Tips welcome.
I find myself in need of a few recipe suggestions. Someone gave me a 10 pound bag of Vidalia onions. Everyone's given me the obvious suggestions of onion rings (good, but I try not to eat that much fried food) and French onion soup (good, but not for 90 degree weather). I've done a few google searches, but keep largely coming up empty. I thought I'd try here for some ideas.
I enjoy cooking but sometimes need short cuts. For the onion, I'd dice them and put half an onion in ziplocks. Then I'd pull as needed.
We use a fresh onion in most dishes - my most fave is roasted until caramelized and soft with evoo, salt and pepper. Simple and delicious. You can add carrots if you are not an onion fan.

The Port Arthur News
The majority of polling locations throughout the state saw an increase in early voting participation since the last presidential election, and Jefferson County was no different.
More than 6,300 Jefferson County residents cast a ballot on the first day of early voting, according to County Clerk Carolyn Guidry, an increase of 700 votes from last year.
Guidry said her office, which organizes the election process and tallies all the votes, was expecting a similar turnout to 2008. She said the county had to add voting machines and poll workers at certain locations.
"There's a big interest in the is race," she said. "It seems, for the moment, that voter apathy has disappeared."
The Roger's Park Community Center had the highest turnout in the county with 1,331 people voting there. The Nederland Recreation Center (806) and Johns Library in Beaumont (778) at the next highest showings.
No one voted at the Precinct One Service Center or the Queen of Vietnam Church on Monday.
The county received 1,808 ballots via mail on Monday, bringing the total number of votes to 8,110 for the first day.
Theresa Goodness, chief deputy for the clerk's office, said voting was "moving along briskly."
There are 147,330 registered voters in Jefferson County for this election.
The San Antonio Express-News reported a record-high turnout in Bexar County, with 30,087 residents voting on Monday. In the last presidential election, 29,119 people voted in Bexar County on the first day of early voting.
KVUE, a news station in Austin, reported more than 130,000 people cast a ballot in Travis County, which is 22 percent of the registered voters.
The Dallas Morning News reported a drop in first-day voting in Dallas County, from 34,000 in 2008 to 27,900 this year.

From Chau's vantage point, his blade infrastructure is finally ready for prime time, approximately two years after NSCU got into the blade market with HP's first iteration of blades, the p-Class. That changed Chau's infrastructure to a smaller footprint with decreased power costs, but it didn't change his life. That came later, with HP's c-Class and its Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager, says Chau. By creating bay-specific I/O profiles with unique MAC addresses, Virtual Connect allows network and storage administrators to establish all LAN and SAN connections during deployment, and lets them avoid having to do it again even if additional servers are deployed or existing ones are changed.
"If the blade on slot 1 fails, all I need to do is replace it with a new one," says Chau. "The back-end connections to the SAN and the network remain intact; it doesn't change. Previous to [Virtual Connect], I would have to engage the SAN admin to re-establish the LUN connections and map to a new WWN."
The technology, he says, has not only made his IT shop more efficient, but freed up some precious time for him to work on new projects. Chau's p-Class blades did leverage a SAN back end but, from an admin perspective, he might as well have been using standard rack-mountable servers.
"With the c-Class and its Virtual Connect Onboard Administrator, we feel it's ready to facilitate our banking system and BI [business intelligence] infrastructure," he notes.
The increasing popularity of blades in the data center has helped fuel serious competition among vendors who are all trying to package, or stuff, the same capabilities of a traditional four-socket rack-mount server into a blade form-factor. However, many users and analysts agree that blades, while just another server form-factor, present unique challenges from a storage management perspective. Managing aggregated I/O for multiple blades, proprietary technology, and the mistaken assumption that blades will automatically lessen your power and cooling costs are among the chief challenges for storage pros considering blade strategies.
James Jancewicz rejected two blade server products. Jancewicz, who took over the storage duties at a large insurance organization 10 years ago, says his firm (which he asked not be named due to company policy) brought in competing HP and IBM Corp. blade centers and dumped a workload on them to see how they would perform. As far as I/O is concerned, they didn't overload the individual blades, he says. "But it was much more difficult to manage a box when you had aggregated I/O for multiple blades running over common interfaces--both fibre and IP," he explains.

App Store Drops Link to Browse "All Free Apps," TiPb Tries Valiantly to Bring it Back
TUAW (nice redesign, guys!) notices that the iTunes App Store no longer has a link on the lefthand side to browse all free apps. The best we have now is the Top 100 Free Apps over on the right. TUAW is hopeful that Apple will bring back the link to browse all them free apps, and indeed, so are we. Even stores that traditionally only sold for-pay mobile apps like the Mobihand store sister-site WMExperts have seen the writing on the wall and added a link for free apps.
Fear not, though, loyal TiPb Readers.
We have the link to browse all 90 pages of free apps, over 1850 apps in total, right here. Go on, browse those free apps, don't let the man keep you down. Browse all Apps
Update: Turns out that you can, in fact, stop the signal. The "Browse all free apps" listing linked above contains, well, a lot of apps that ain't free. Could it be that Apple got sick and tired of developers listing their apps as free to move up the top apps chain, then switching to for-pay to bring in the cash? Our best guess: Apple must not have a good, automatic way to categorize "free," so they took the above link down to tweak the store.
There are 9 comments. Add yours.
Awesome! App Store has been Dieter0wnd!
Forwarding that link on now to friends who will definitely appreciate it. Nice work there, Sherlock Browncoat! :)
I really like looking at the free apps list. I wonder how all these other sites get the information that list apps on the app store. If someone can point me in the right direction. I'll create a site that lists out all the free apps in the app store.
This is a CRAP move Apple.
Sometimes, I am embarrassed by the choices they make.
Plus my AAPL is sucking eggs so I'm pissy :)
I noticed that this had gone a few days ago. More annoying, sorting new apps by release date doesn't seem to work properly now. Previously, updates for free apps would appear but that feature seems to have been removed as well. Whatever they've done, it's now just a mess!
Maybe they are loosing money because everyone is downloading free apps, which means Apple doesn't get any money?
Cool. Maybe they can implement a feature to not browse lite apps. I hate those with a passion. It clutters things.
First search for any app e.g. bump
Then filter to apps
Then click power search
Dont change anything just leave the search box blank but tick the check box that says search only for free apps.
Finally browse through pages of free apps:D
Hello,Sorry for submitting it here but i cdloun't found a contact us page.I found your site interesting.I have recently launched a new app Secure My Apps for blackberry.Please review our app.

One of the biggest problems this new decade will have to address is the cell phone dependency. This is the way to occupy your time when you are alone but rude when you are in the company of others. The one on one connection with people has taken a back seat to the self indulgence of all that can be done with phones today; games, email, texting, searching the web, looking at pictures, facebook, twitter, music and more. This growing global dependency on cell phones seems to be getting worse as everywhere you go you see people on their phones. People are more distracted with all the capabilities smart phones offer. Not only does everyone have a cell phone but everyone is looking at it, typing on it or listening to it with ear phones. How do you manage this dependency? It has become a full time job for many people who use their phones to manage their business and their life on it.
Consider the proper cell phone etiquette when with business associates, friends and family:
Our cell phones have caused accidents and deaths and new laws and legislation have been put in place to prohibit the use of talking on cell phones and texting while driving. As hard as it is to break away consider the appropriate times to use your cell phone. Consider finding the proper balance between our technology and interpersonal connection. Please share other ideas on how to deter the cell phone dependency?
I'm a New Yorker — born, bred and proud of it. So when I say it's time to dial down on all this rude and infernal yakking on mobile phones, you'll understand that it comes with a high tolerance for urban chatter and in-your-face attitude.
Loutish cell use is out of control. Mobile phones now ring at weddings and funerals, job interviews and surgical
procedures. No event is immune.
I just returned home from the HR Technology Conference in Chicago. I missed the first couple days due to work, but was happy I was able to take some vacation time to come to the event. This was my first opportunity to meet any of my "tweeps". I am often asked by people who do not use social media if the relationships I am building with people on Twitter and through blogging are real. After my experience at HR Tech, I assure you, they are VERY real.
the world of technology is always moving forward…
very useful info.. thank you
At work, a phone should always be set to vibrate or silent and one should always curtail personal conversations and text messaging during work hours.There is no better way to make a poor impression on colleagues than to have your phone go off in a meeting, or let them see you whiling away office hours playing BrickBreaker on your BlackBerry.

Stacie Laughton does not deny her past – that she served four months in prison in 2008 on conspiracy to commit credit card fraud charges.
That story, published in the Nov. 24 Laconia Daily Sun, is true, Laughton said, during a phone interview Saturday morning.
"Yes it's true – I knew I was going to run into this," said Laughton, when asked this morning about the story.
Laughton said the situation leading up to her arrest "is complicated," and that the dispute with another woman that led to the felony conviction was, in part, "a set up."
She also said she does not want to resign her newly-elected state rep seat.
"They elected me to do a job and that job, I'm going to do with honor and with valor, regardless of what's in my past. My past doesn't define me," Laughton said.
Laughton, who is transgender – meaning she was born male but identifies as female – was charged and convicted in 2008 while living in Laconia under the name of Barry Charles Laughton Jr.
Laughton said today that she did not go about changing her identity or gender status to hide from her past.
"People will accuse me of trying to change my identity for this reason, but being a transgender female is who I have always been," said Laughton
According to the Laconia Sun story, Laughton's conviction stemmed from an incident involving a neighbor living at the same Church Street public housing complex where Laughton, then known as Barry Charles Laughton Jr., resided with then wife, Lisa Laughton.
Stacie Laughton eventually was indicted as Barry Charles Laughton Jr. on three charges – felony conspiracy to commit credit card fraud, falsifying physical evidence, and one count of falsifying physical evidence. She pleaded guilty to all three charges, but the sentences for two of the charges were suspended.
Laughton said she served four months of a 12 month sentence in the Belknap County House of Corrections for the felony conspiracy to commit fraudulent use of a credit card conviction, and was released from prison on Nov. 21, 2008.
She said she has not violated her probation, and is still paying restitution.
According to state law (RSA 607-A:2), a convicted felon can run for public office provided they are no longer incarcerated and have completed any court-ordered probation. [See pdf of NH Voting Code uploaded with this story.]
When asked about other run-ins with police mentioned in the Laconia Sun story, including calling for an ambulance as a way of getting a ride home from the annual Laconia fireworks, Laughton confirmed that incident, and said she had been treated and released for a medical condition, and charges in that case were dropped.
"In that case, the doctor violated Hippa laws," Laughton said.
"I've always been an easygoing person, even through all of the arrests and incarceration. I have a drive to serve people. I know, in the end, this will pass – as with anything, this will pass," Laughton said. "Laconia was such a terrible experience for me – it was emotionally, financially and legally draining – it was nothing but heartache for me," Laughton said.
Laughton is one of three Democrats elected in Ward 4 with 1,588 votes, beating out the two Republican candidates, Richard Heitmiller (732 votes) and Elizabeth Van Twuyver (754 votes).
"Legally, I can still serve, and I'm going to continue to move forward as I have been. I'm not going to steer around it. I decided if asked about it, I was going to be honest, and if for some reason it prohibits me from serving, then I'll have to resign. But for now, I have no plan to resign. The citizens of Nashua deserve good, competent representation," Laughton said.
"Everybody's got things in their past – I'm not proud of or particularly happy about mine – but there's nothing we can do about the past, except try to move forward," Laughton said.
When contacted over the weekend for comment, David Tencza, current chairman of the Nashua Democratic Committee, said he was surprised by the news, which he heard about for the first time Saturday.
He said he was also surprised that the news hadn't come out sooner, or been used against Laughton by Republicans, given the coverage of Laughton over the years by the Laconia paper.
"I've not spoken with Stacie about any of this, and at this point, it's not fair to comment publicly without speaking with her," Tencza said.
Laughton said she is determined to serve as a state representative, a status which will become official as of the December 5 swearing in ceremony. New Hampshire's citizen legislators are paid $200 per two-year term, with no per diem.
"I understand it's not going to look good – maybe the worst will have to come and I will have to resign my position," Laughton said. "I had already decided that once questioned about it, I would be up front and honest," Laughton said. "That's all I can do."

Members of the Clarkstown Soccer Club put together a recreational soccer program for today, Thursday, Nov. 1 to get kids out of the house and moving and to raise money for victims of Hurricane Sandy. Club member Alissa Carelli said with school being cancelled, they wanted to give kids a chance to burn off some of their energy while having fun.
The fundraiser goes from 3 to 5 p.m. at Westrock Indoor Sports at 21 Pralle Lane in Nanuet, which is donating the space. A $10 contribution per family is requested and the money will go to the American Red Cross for the victims of Hurricane Sandy. The combination skills training and open soccer play is for children and adolescents of all ages.
Those attending should wear sneakers or soccer cleats, shin guards and bring a water bottle and a soccer ball if they have one. Carelli said people can show up or they email firstname.lastname@example.com if they know for certain they will be attending.

Tonawanda News —
In a roughly 10-second exchange of might, the City of Tonawanda took the annual Canal Fest tug-of-war title for the second year in a row over North Tonawanda on Monday.
Wearing light blue T-shirts the Tonawanda team seemed to have the edge in age, though not size, as the crew of 15 etched out a victory over their Lumber City opponents pulling a pink ribbon across a spray-painted white line in a grassy area along the Niagara River behind Tonawanda City Hall.
And while their was no moat or mud, as is often the case in such competitions, team Tonawanda had pride on the line and celebrated the victory with high-fives and hoots.
But, as tradition goes, there will be other consequences. North Tonawanda Mayor Rob Ortt pushed Tonawanda Mayor Ron Pilozzi over the Renaissance Bridge Tuesday night in a wheelbarrow, setting the stage for another oft-comical event and another year of bragging rights.
The short contest was watched by more than 60 Twin Cities residents, many of whom became vocally involved with shouts of "pull, pull, pull" throughout.
"It's clear that the south side has won," said Assemblyman Robin Schimminger, who led the contest with a whistle and officially determined its victor.
Pilozzi, who stood off to the side as the contest ensued, was gracious as he thanked the NT participants while also trumpeting his own side.
"I'd like to congratulate our team for the win," he said.
Ortt tossed the moment up to fate, thanking his team made up largely of emergency workers and politicians.
"All I can say is ... see you next year," he said.
Prior to Tonawanda's two-year win streak North Tonawanda had won the tug three years in a row.Contact reporter Michael Regan at 693-1000, ext. 4115.

J.K. Place Capri
What travellers said about this hotel
It faces directly on to the sea and the center is quite a distance away. This said, the shuttle service is always available.
Harris L. and 10 others agree with this

Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Four women--four friends--share a determination to stop a killer who has been stalking newlyweds in San Francisco. Each one holds a piece of the puzzle: Lindsay Boxer is a homicide inspector in the San Francisco Police Department, Claire Washburn is a medical examiner, Jill Bernhardt is an assistant D.A., and Cindy Thomas just started working the crime desk of the San Francisco Chronicle. But the usual procedures aren't bringing them any closer to stopping the killings. So these women form a Women's Murder Club to collaborate outside the box and pursue the case by sidestepping their bosses and giving each other a hand. The four women develop intense bonds as they pursue a killer whose crimes have stunned an entire city. Working together, they track down the most terrifying and unexpected killer they have ever encountered--before a shocking conclusion in which everything they knew turns out to be devastatingly wrong. Full of the breathtaking drama and unforgettable emotions for which James Patterson is famous, 1st to Die is the start of a blazingly fast-paced and sensationally entertaining series of crime thrillers.
Patterson debuts his new series that introduces the Women's Murder Club. A demented killer stalks and murders newlyweds in San Francisco. Four women--a police detective, an assistant D.A., a reporter, and a medical examiner--join forces as they sidestep their bosses to track down a criminal whose twisted imagination stuns an entire city.

Psychedelic shred machine built for weirdos, by weirdos.
A bunch of boards claim to be quiver killers, but there's only one Gnu Metal Guru EC2 BTX snowboard. Little is known about the origins of this park-killing all-mountain destroyer, but we can tell you that the EC2 profile blends power with forgiveness for a ride that everyone can appreciate. Think about it, what if your rail board ripped the steeps, and your pow board lived for half pipe laps? Well, when you're riding a Metal Guru, that's your new reality.
The Metal Guru runs on Gnu's EC2 BTX rocker profile. Basically, that means that there's rocker between the bindings, while the tip and tail have a modest degree of camber. What that means for you is a loose, catch-free ride that feels about halfway between the jib-oriented Pickle, and the more aggressive C2 boards like the Rider's Choice. The tech doesn't stop there, with Magne-Traction edges placing seven strategic bumps along the edges. The bumps are bigger between the feet, which concentrates most of the grip there so it feels like you're skating. Plus it's a true twin, for unrestricted switch trickery.
The Columbian Gold core uses sustainably harvested wood for a board that's light, and snappy. Power Transfer internal sidewalls crank up the durability, and they're buffered by UHMW external sidewalls for impact resistance. The Co Sint sintered base runs insanely fast, and holds tons of wax. Best of all, you can rest easy knowing that your snowboard was built in an environmentally friendly facility by weirdos with jobs.
- EC2 BTX rocker profile
- Twin shape
- Twin sidecut
- Magnetraction edges
- CGA.5 core (Aspen, Colombian Gold mix)

Mississippi Kite
Photo Credit: Dave Cagnolatti & Weeks Bay Reserve Foundation
SCIENTIFIC NAME: Ictinia mississippiensis
OTHER NAMES: Mosquito Hawk, Blue Snake-hawk, Hovering Kite and Locust-eater.
DESCRIPTION: Mississippi kites belong to Class Aves, Order Falconiformes, Family Accipitridae and Genus Ictinia. The Mississippi kite varies in length from 12 to 15 inches, weight is eight to 13 ounces, and wingspan is 41 to 44 inches. The adult Mississippi kite has a white to pale gray head, with black around the eye. The upper wings are slate gray and the upper secondary wing feathers white. When seen in flight and from below, the body looks light to medium gray with the wings a darker gray. The tail is square, blackish and sometimes slightly notched. Young kites have a brown streaked breast with a banded tail.
DISTRIBUTION: Mississippi kites are found in the southern parts of the midwestern and southeastern United States. The distribution is uneven due to colonial nesting, with the greatest numbers found in the southern Great Plains. In Alabama they can be seen in the black belt region down to the transition zone between the upper and lower coastal plain. The largest concentration is found along the rivers of the lower coastal plain in south Alabama. They migrate as far south as the continent of South America.
HABITAT: Mississippi kites nest in wooded areas. They are normally found where woodland are adjacent to rivers, grasslands, or savanna type habitats. They prefer riparian habitat over continuous forest.
FEEDING HABITS: The Mississippi kite is a graceful flier that can spend hours soaring in the air. It is a gregarious bird, traveling in flocks and even nesting in small colonies. The kite feeds on insects, usually grasshoppers, dragonflies, and mosquitoes. It normally searches for prey while in flight and often eats while in the air. It sometimes preys on small birds, bats, reptiles, and amphibians.
LIFE HISTORY AND ECOLOGY: Mississippi kites reach sexual maturity in two years and begin to breed. They find mates on the wintering grounds and during migration to nesting areas. They will nest singularly or in colonies with four to six pairs.. The nest is usually built in the top of large mature pine and hardwood trees. They will return to an old nest and reuse it. They lay one or two eggs and both parents assist with incubation for 29 to 31 days. The fledglings can fly by 50 days and are fed by the parents until they are at least 60 days old. Sub-adult birds have been observed assisting with incubation, feeding and defending the nest.

ASU Museum is looking for promotional partners for Rockabilly Boogiefest 2014. For sponsorship information, please contact Dr. Allen at 870-972-2074 or LaDawn Fuhr at 870-761-8588.
ASU Museum presents Rockabilly Boogiefest-- a benefit concert beginning at 6 pm on March 1, 2014 at the Military Science/Old ASU Armory Building (1921 Aggie Rd, Jonesboro).
The purpose of ASU Museum Rockabilly Boogiefest is to preserve, promote and celebrate the rich Rockabilly Heritage of Northeast Arkansas.
All Proceeds from Rockabilly Boogiefest will help fund a permanent Rockabilly exhibition at ASU Museum now in development.
Tentatively entitled "Rockabilly! The Northeast Arkansas Story of a Music Sensation", this exhibition will connect people in our community with a significant but little known part of their history--the role of Northeast Arkansas in the development and dissemination of the 1950s music genre now known as "Rockabilly". The exhibition will show how Rockabilly skyrocketed into a music sensation in little Arkansas towns like Bono, Paragould, Trumann, and Newport, and how this distinctive style persisted in our region long after its heyday elsewhere, thereby providing continuity through to the Rockabilly Revival that still rocks our world today.
Learn More about the Rockabilly Exhibition in Development at ASU Museum...

Health Care Law Reaction and President David Maxwell of Drake University
By Ben Kieffer
The U.S. Supreme Court has upheld the health care mandate proposed by President Obama. Today on "River to River", we hear what Iowans have to say about the decision. We also speak with political science professor, Dennis Goldford, on how the ruling may affect Iowa voters. Later in the program, Drake University President David Maxwell joins us as part of our summer series of conversations with Iowa university and college presidents. We'll talk about what private universities can do to be attractive and affordable during a challenging economy. Also, Des Moines making a bid to host the 2016 U.S. Track and Field Olympic trials? – we'll get David Maxwell's take.

By Dennis Robaugh
CHICAGO, Illinois – The Independent Police Review Authority is investigating several allegations — including hate crime and excessive force — against police officers who raided a tanning salon last summer.
The conduct in question came to public light in a federal lawsuit filed against Chicago last week by Jianqing "Jessica" Klyzek, 32, manager of Copper Tan and Spa in Noble Square.
Police suspected the spa was a house of prostitution.
Security camera footage of the raid was sent to the Chicago Sun-Times by Klyzek's attorney, Torreya Hamilton.
- an officer struck a handcuffed, kneeling Klyzek in the head while standing behind her
- an officer yelled at Klyzek: "I'll put you in a UPS box and send you back to wherever the f--- you came from," before telling her that she and her family would be murdered by the owner of the salon
- Another officer screamed at her: "You're not f------ American!"
Klyzek, a naturalized U.S. citizen from China, stands 5-foot-2-inches and weighs 110 pounds. The lawsuit also alleges that the officers — some of whom said Klyzek scratched and bit them — tried to frame Klyzek as a cover-up for their behavior.
"The alleged comments, if true, are reprehensible and completely intolerable in our police department," police spokesman Adam Collins told federal courts reporter Kim Janssen of the Chicago Sun-Times. "We have codes of conduct that apply to officers, and if the allegations are proven accurate appropriate action will be taken."
At the time, Klyzek was charged with aggravated battery of the police officers. But Cook County Judge Paul Pavlus found no probable cause for her arrest and dismissed the case.
The Sun-Times reports that officers tried to pursue charges against Klyzek again, but after the assistant state's attorneys saw the video they dropped the prosecution.» via Sun-Times Media

|Rio Gold Fly Line
Item # FG112
RIO "GOLD" Floating Fly Lines with WELDED LOOPS INSTALLED on both ends. My personal favorite all-around trout line, now improved with MaxFloat Tip and MaxCast coatings (Bob). The revolutionary design allows for incredible loop stability at distance, and a unique taper allows for easy rod loading at close range. The long back taper is excellent for roll-casting and line-mending. The running line and head are two different colors (DualTone), making it easy to find your rod's perfect loading point. Loads and throws beautifully smooth on today's med/fast to fast action rods. WF3F thru WF8F in COLORS: (1)Moss head with Gold running line, (2)Melon head with Gray-Dun running line.

|Rio Redfish Fly Line
Item # FG150
RIO 'REDFISH' Floating Fly Lines with WELDED LOOPS INSTALLED on both ends. NOT JUST FOR REDFISH. This is a fantastic high-performance "general purpose" saltwater line that MATCHES BEAUTIFULLY WITH THE NEW WINSTON BIII-SX, SAGE Xi3, LOOMIS NRX, HARDY SINTRIX, and other fast-action Saltwater Rods. Now with Extreme Slickness for improved overall performance. Short back taper for fast casts and a medium length front taper that will present a fly without spooking back country Reds, bonefish, and other wary gamefish. An increase in weight towards the front of the line makes it easy to load rods at close range, and to cope with the typical saltwater winds. Hard saltwater coating over medium-stiff core, won't wilt in the heat and maintains great loop control. 100-ft line. Best performance in 75-100 degree temps. New DualTone Color is Sand/Aqua-Blue. WF6F thru WF10F.

|Reel E Good Winder
Item # FX004
REEL-E-GOOD fly line AND backing winder Great for INSTANTLY cleaning, changing and storing fly lines. When I come in from fishing, I mount my reel in place, and with a pad, with or without line dressing, clean my line as I wind it onto the Winder-Spool. I then "polish-it" with or without the dressing as I wind the line back onto the reel (2-minutes!). The reel is back in my bag, ready to go. With SA "AST"- finish lines, just use the SA Cleaner pad. How easy can it get? A clean fly line floats high, and picks off the water so easy (not to mention longer life). AND LOOK: This outfit COMES WITH TWO LINE-WINDER SPOOLS for storing extra fly lines.

The ingenious design allows for one-person operation. Lines transfer from reels to Switch Boxes and vice versa using loop-to-loop connections, fast and simple, NO KNOTS. To clean your lines, simply snap on the LINE CARE BOX and run the fly line through it. As you wind, the line is scrubbed clean in the first half of the box, then coated with line dressing as it enters the box (line dressing not included). COMPLETE KIT INCLUDES: One Switch Box Spool, Crank and Line Care Box. SPECIFY COLOR: (1)Blue, (2)Green
