In the long run, Ben Mostoller and other volunteers believe a cure for cancer will be found.
But in the meantime, Ben and other runners will fight the disease by lacing their sneakers and running in the sixth annual Wings of Hope 5K Run/Walk, which is scheduled to start at 9 a.m. April 20 at
The Grove in Westmont.
The event has raised more than $40,000 so far to help local families in need battle cancer.
Ben, who turns 16 on April 8, has been helping to organize the event for months.
On race day, he will help to set up for the race and help to register runners and walkers from 8 to 8:45 a.m.
Ben has been volunteering on race day and running in the race since the event's inception.
"This year, I am doing this for my senior project," he said. "That's why I am more involved in the event."
Ben currently is a sophomore at the Pennsylvania Virtual Charter School.
"It's important to help people who are struggling with cancer," said Ben, a Richland Township resident. "It's important to help people in our own community because they are our neighbors."
By the many people who run in the race and the numerous volunteers and sponsors, cancer patients can see that there are many people who care about them, he said.
The event also is a family affair for Ben.
His mother, Susan, volunteers alongside him each year. And this year, his family will field a team for the race.
In addition to raising money for the event, the team also is raising money to help a family member who is battling cancer, he said.
In addition to Ben, other team members are his mother; father, Chad; sister, Julia; and relatives who hail from as far as Virginia.
Ben also runs in the Wings of Hope Great Santa Run at Christmastime and in other charitable races.
For his efforts, Ben is the Person of the Week.
Tina Honkus, who founded Wings of Hope to remember her late mother, Evelyn Miller, who died of cancer, and to help the community, said putting on the event requires many volunteers.
"Ben has been a volunteer for several years," Honkus said. "We were very excited when Ben volunteered to take a leading role in the organization of our event as his school project," she said.
"We believe the youth of our community are our future, and it's exciting to see them step up and take on these projects."
The fee to race in the event is $20 if
paid by April 10 and $25 thereafter, including race day.
For additional information or to register, visit wingsofhopejohnstown.com.
Inside The Grove on race day, students at Miller Martial Arts in Richland Township will donate their time to put on martial arts demonstrations.
Refreshments also will be available inside The Grove.

JEFFERSONVILLE — A Jeffersonville man charged in a 2010 road-rage incident on East 10th Street was sentenced Monday in Clark County Circuit Court No. 4.
Michael Shelby, 22, of 3411 Alexander Court, who was originally charged with B felony aggravated battery, was sentenced to three years probation through a plea agreement.
A term of the probation requires Shelby to pay $100,000 restitution to the victim in $500 monthly installments.
Shelby was arrested following the attack of Michael Cullum after a roadway altercation that took place about 11:30 p.m. Nov. 1, 2010.
The incident resulted in Michael Cullum being severely beaten and taken to University of Louisville Hospital for a head injury and severe swelling to his face and head.
After he was submitted for treatment, Jeffersonville police were notified by hospital staff that Cullum suffered a traumatic brain bleed, a broken nose and several broken teeth. Hospital personnel had placed a plastic tube in his trachea to obtain an open airway and put him into a medically induced coma.
During the sentencing hearing in Judge Vicki Carmichael's court, Shelby appeared with his attorney, Brad Jacobs.
"With what he was facing — we knocked a B felony down to misdemeanors and just probation — so, [Shelby] was pretty happy with the way it turned out," Jacobs said after the hearing.
Jacobs said that Heather Cullum, the victim's wife, has said that she realized a full $100,000 restitution is not possible, but she wanted Shelby to make the best effort he could.
Clark County Chief Deputy Prosecutor Jeremy Mull, who represented the state during the proceeding, disregarded the notion that the full payment of $100,000 may not be paid.
"My position will be that if [Shelby] doesn't pay that at the end of three years, probation will be extended until he pays that off," Mull said. "If he doesn't pay [the full $100,000] we will try to get his probation revoked. I think I have legal support to request that the judge extend probation until all that is paid. So, that will be my intention."
He said that offering a plea was appropriate because Michael Cullum, through injuries he sustained during the incident, has suffered memory loss, which would make prosecution during a trial difficult.
"This [resolution] is what the victim wanted," Mull said. "These people are out of a lot of money. They have medical debts and bills that are going to weigh them down for years to come, and their main concern in this case is to get some of this money back."
Mull said Shelby would likely have served two to three years in the Indiana Department of Correction, with no restitution, had he been convicted of the battery charge.
Mull added that he has learned through his experience that for some offenders, paying back a large restitution is worse than jail time.
Landers, who was charged as a adult for his involvement in the incident, pled guilty to aggravated battery, class B felony, in 2011.
He received a sentenced of two years imprisonment with six years probation to serve on his release.
At the time of the incident Shelby was driving a 1995 Chevrolet Blazer following a 1994 Plymouth Acclaim driven by Heather Cullum.
Then-17-year-old Dakota Landers was in the passenger seat of Shelby's Chevrolet, and Matthew Cullum was in the passenger seat of the Plymouth.
Both Shelby and Heather Cullum gave accounts to police that both vehicle were traveling east on 10th Street, and that Heather Cullum had begun to suddenly brake her vehicle. Heather said that she slowed down because the vehicle was overheating.
Shelby then switched lanes, pulled beside Cullums' vehicle and cursed at her and gave her the middle finger.
Their accounts of what transpired from that point, begin to diverge.
Each said the other followed their vehicle into a business' parking lot on Sharon Drive where Shelby and Landers would beat Michael Cullum.
After the assault took place, Heather Cullum was able to get the license plate number of Shelby's vehicle before it drove out of sight.
Police used the information to identify Shelby as the owner of the Chevrolet. The vehicle was located about 3:45 a.m. in the parking lot of Armstrong Farms apartment complex near Veterans Parkway.
Officers reported waiting about 20 minutes before the vehicle left the parking lot, and a traffic stop was made.
Shelby was behind the wheel of the vehicle, at which time he told officers that he had been involved in a fight.
He was then taken to police headquarters, questioned about the incident and charged with battery. He would later post a $2,500 bond in January 2011.

3 ways to improve energy efficiency in industrial applications
Schneider Electric offers three general ways to help industrial customers manage energy more efficiently and specific technologies and systems to help them do so.
Schneider Electric offers three general ways to help industrial customers manage energy more efficiently:
1. Improve how applications are controlled. Adding intelligence to applications helps better match how and when they're running while meeting the needs of associated processes;
2. Recover and reuse waste heat; and
3. Improve maintenance programs to ensure critical equipment is functioning efficiently.
Most common industrial applications to begin looking for energy savings are compressed air, furnace control, injection press control, and chillers.
Specific Schneider Electric solutions include:
-Pipeline management system that uses One SCADA for Process, Energy & Security at the control room - including interface with pipeline applications;
-Chiller compressor control optimization uses Twido and Altivar 61 technologies;
-Advanced furnace regulation for energy savings uses Modicon Quantum PLC, Sensors, and dedicated software;
- Injection press optimization through hydraulic clear mode solution use Altivar 61, pressure sensors, Zelio Logic; and
- EcoStruxure solution architecture is an approach which unites Schneider Electric's expertise in power, datacenters, process and machines, building control, and physical security to enable intelligent energy management. EcoStruxure provides a new energy management architecture integrated and optimized for a maximum efficiency, and an intelligent integration that ties together five key domains of expertise thus reducing training, operating, maintenance and energy cost.

Annual Salary Survey
Participate in the 2013 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering's annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.

Oakley Snowboarders Win Nine Medals at Winter X 17; Shaun White Six-Peats in Superpipe
The world's largest gathering of action sports athletes didn't disappoint. Once again, as has become tradition at Winter X Games, performance boundaries were broken and the tricktionary was expanded; records were set and new names burst onto the scene. Thick in the historic happenings and memorable moments were our Oakley winter athletes, leading the charge for where their respective sports will be going in the coming years.
For the sixth consecutive year it was Shaun White who put the exclamation point on another phenomenal Winter X. A dominating performance in the Superpipe, highlighted by a record 24.1-foot air, resulted in his sixth consecutive Gold Medal in the event and his 23rd X Games medal overall.
"I'm honored to ride with such great talent, those guys crush," White said. "The reason the 6-peat means so much to me is not about winning but because it speaks to my ability to stay on top of a sport that's ever-changing— that's ultimately my goal."
The closest thing to a challenge for White came from an 8th grader from Japan. Ayumu Hirano, though just 14 and in his first X Games, laid down a run so smooth with airs so big that the snowboarding and action sports communities certainly will take notice. He stunning performance won him a Silver Medal.
Over the course of four days, beyond White's and Hirano's Superpipe medals, Oakley snowboarders were on the podium on seven other occasions, which included three Gold medals. Overall, Oakley athletes won 20 medals between snowboarding, skiing and snowmobiling.
While Slopestyle was positioned by ESPN as the epic showdown between White and 19-year-old Canadian Mark McMorris, the story turned out to be the utter dominance of the Canadian. While White struggled with his runs, McMorris was almost flawless in both Eliminations and the Finals, posting a 98 in his winning run, which included a backside triple cork 1440s and a cab double cork 1260. It was the single highest Slopestyle score in X Games history.
"I came here to do the cab 12 and I just felt like it needed to be done. The course was too good not to do that run," McMorris said. "I felt really solid about my riding. I'm just glad it all worked out and everybody stayed safe. I landed a run I don't think I've ever done."
Max Parrot, another young Canadian who's still building his international profile, announced himself with force – winning Silver behind McMorris.
Though McMorris was able to defend his Slopestyle title from 2012, he didn't have the same success in Big Air despite landing a never-before-landed-in-competition cab triple underflip 1440 on his final run. Torstein Horgmo landed the first-ever switch backside triple cork 1440 in competition, for a perfect 50. Read the full story.
In women's snowboarding, the newest addition to the Oakley family made a stellar first impression. Jamie Anderson has been one of the most dominant women in Slopestyle since winning her first X Games medal in 2006, and continued that streak on the course again, laying down a solid all-around run, capped by a big cab 720, and won her fourth Gold Medal and seventh medal overall.
"I really wanted to come into here and get the balance of my energy; it's pretty hectic [at X Games] with everything going on," Anderson explained. "I just wanted to put down a solid first run and do my best. I'm just so thankful to be here. I'm really inspired to learn more new tricks, have better style and enjoy the journey."
The ninth and final snowboarding medal came from an unexpected yet very deserving source: 16-year-old Canadian Arielle Gold in Superpipe. The X Games rookie shocked the field by landing some big, technical tricks and held on for the Bronze Medal.
"I am still in complete shock," Gold said. "I went from being an alternate in the event to getting on the podium, and I couldn't be happier. I have looked up to these girls ever since I started snowboarding, so to be on the podium with them is a dream come true."
Congratulations to all of the Oakley snowboarding medalists on a phenomenal showing at Winter X Games 17.

I'm giving in to this one and will be watching Cannibal Holocaust this weekend (hopefully). Still can't get a hold of Necromantik for rent. Is it worth a buy? I like twisted movies but there has got to be some plot or good acting to go along with it.
Necromatincdmon_man on Sunday, August 1, 2010 - 2:08am
Hey Spooky,
I know you might blame me for leading you to Salo, but I have to say that Necromantic is way more horror and gore.
It's crazy, horrific and obscene but fun in its own special way. I hope that you're able to find it.
I can't believe I found the traler on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUOnwAxlo28
@Dmon_Manspookyboo on Sunday, August 1, 2010 - 8:01pm
No I don't blame you for SALO. Don't feel bad. I soooooooooooo want to see Necromantik and can't get it unless I buy it.
I watched Cannibal Holocaust last night and it wasn't really as bad as some people say. They actually killed a sea turtle in that movie and that bothered me. I don't like to see animals get killed but for the most part I'm wanting something in the extreme sense with a good plot of course. Something along the lines of Aftermath / Genesis. And I cannot find something much like that.
Oh, and I didn't see any midgits in Cannibal Holocaust. A few ppl told me there were a bunch of cool rabid midgits. At first I thought I missed something but then I was like thinking the movie still wasn't that bad save for the animal killing which I could've done without.
right back at ya' spookydmon_man on Wednesday, August 11, 2010 - 12:28am
Rabid midgets! Wow, that would have made Cannibal Holocaust 10 times better! Instead it's a movie I can't really get behind because of the animal killing which just seems unnecessary and wrong.
Necromantik is an unforgetable experience but is it worth buying? Maybe, if it costs under $20. Check around online first before you buy, it maybe on Google Movies or some other legitimate site.
I'm going to make a list of movies you might be interested in and post in a new entry somewhere. It will take me a bit but I'll message you when it's up.

I need all the winning weeks I can get seeing how I may be the worst college capper in all forums this year. Here is my MNF winner.
NY Jets -6½ vs. Miami (one unit play)…………..First of all, I am a Miami Dolphins fan and even I cannot get excited about them playing on MNF. Jets are due to play a game and put it all together and look like the team they were last season. What a perfect opportunity to do it this week vs. the hapless Dolphins. Only one unit though as Miami even though they suck have somehow found ways to not get completely destroyed.
Good Luck Everybody!!

Dr. Clara Franzini-Armstrong is a world-renowned electron microscopist. She is nationally and internationally recognized for her superb ultra-structural studies of the triad junction of both cardiac and skeletal muscle. Her contributions have greatly enhanced our knowledge of the structural basis for excitation-contraction coupling. Dr. Franzini Armstrong's work has revealed that ion channel proteins in the T-tubule (the dihydropyridine receptor) and sarcoplasmic reticulum (ryanodine receptor) are intimately and precisely associated. The interactions between these two proteins provide the basis for control of calcium release from intracellular stores, which regulates muscle contraction.
Dr. Franzini-Armstrong received her PhD degree in 1960 from the University of Pisa, Italy.
She went to work as a Research Assistant at University College, London, under direction of
Nobel laureate, Andrew F. Huxley. She joined the faculty at the University of Pennsylvania
as an Associate Professor in Anatomy in 1975 and was promoted to Professor in Cellular and
Developmental Biology in 1981. Dr. Franzini-Armstrong was inducted into the National
Academy of Sciences in 1995. She and her husband, Dr. Clay Armstrong, are the only husband
and wife members of the National Academy of Science.
Dr. Franzini-Armstrong delivered two public lectures at the College of Veterinary Medicine as part of the Clarenburg Lecture Series. The first, entitled "Molecular architecture of calcium release units", was given on Thursday, November 5th, 1998 at 4 PM in Room 235 of the Veterinary Medical Science Building and the second, entitled "Design principles of skeletal and cardiac muscle", was held at 4 PM Friday, November 6th, 1998 in the Practice Management Center, 4th Floor, Trotter Hall.

Northeastern State University played host to several health and exercise organizations and services Friday as part of its 2013 Healthy Campus Initiative.
The Health Fair and Fitness Expo held in the University Center Herb Rozell Ballroom provided an opportunity for students and patrons to learn how to improve their health.
The goal of NSU Student Health Services is to promote the physical, emotional and behavioral success of everyone on campus by providing quality and affordable health care options.
Student assistant Xuan Li was on hand during the Expo to provide free blood tests and information related to diabetes and high blood pressure.
"We help them with the free test and tell them the results," he said. "They can come [to NSU Health Services] if they want to do more tests or get more information. Some of the lab tests are cheaper than going to a hospital."
Representatives of The Vegetarian Society of Tulsa helped people understand why eating a meat-free and plant-based diet is important in deterring sickness.
Society member Jesse Honn said a source of protein can be obtained from many healthy food items.
"There's been a lot of research for many decades that has shown that a plant-based lifestyle can reverse a lot diseases. We can't make any medical claims, but it's pretty obvious that fruits, vegetables and grains are healthy for you," he said. "We just try to advocate, at the very least, to try to eat more of [healthy food items] and less of the other stuff."
Honn said he and his wife, Jennifer, were meat eaters five years ago, but decided to make a change when family members began experiencing health-related issues connected to their diets. Jennifer said people can begin to improve their diets by removing meat from the menu at least one day a week.
"There's a movement that's gotten pretty popular called 'meatless Mondays.' It's only one day a week. Just don't eat meat on Mondays," she said. "[By participating in the Vegetarian Society of Tulsa] you'll learn plant-based recipes and it will start becoming easier."
Society member Yadi Gonzalez said it took a couple of serious health-related events with two of her relatives before her family began to take a serious look at their diets.
"You've always heard that fruits and vegetables are healthy. It's not just something that doctors or all these exercise trainers say; it's really an effective way of living," she said. "It really does help."
Northeastern Oklahoma Community Health Centers Business Operations Manager Crystal Steed said the NSU Health Fair and Fitness Expo is not only a chance for people to learn about their health, but an opportunity for people who work in the health care industry to talk about ongoing changes or related topics.
"We try to communicate with each other on what's changing. There's not a lot of time for health care [personnel] to get together and communicate," she said. "We're here to let everyone know what we're about. We're here to provide affordable, quality health care. We see anyone that has insurance or doesn't have insurance. We see everybody. We're a federally qualified health care center."
Jamie Grosser, who is the marketing director for Northeastern Physical Rehabilitation of Tahlequah, was at the Expo to promote aquatic therapy.
"We have only one of eight SwimEx pools in the state. This is the same type of exercise station pool that OSU and OU have at their gyms for their students," she said. "That's something we like to get out because we're the only facility in the area that offers aquatic therapy."
Grosser said Northeastern Physical Rehab also has a full gym that is open to the public.
"There are no contracts. It's $20 a month. A lot of our patients that finish therapy will continue to use the gym for post-therapy exercise," she said.

State Agencies Partnering Up to Promote National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day.
The African American Health & Social Services Department and The NM Dept of Health is teaming up with several state agencies – including Aging and Long Term Services Dept and Office of African American Affairs – along with other partners to promote National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day.
Community members, community leaders, advocates, practitioners and lawmakers are all invited to learn more about current HIV/AIDS prevention trends and initiatives. There will be free and anonymous rapid HIV testing, informational booths and entertainment. Hors d'oeuvres will also be served.
African Americans in New Mexico have the highest rate of HIV infection among all racial/ethnic groups in the state. In 2011, the HIV incidence rate among African Americans in New Mexico was 21 per 100,000, nearly three times higher than the statewide rate of 7.4 per 100,000.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - No. 2 Florida State (6-0) registered its second series sweep in as many weeks with a 14-4 victory over Hofstra (0-6) in game three Sunday afternoon on Mike Martin Field inside Dick Howser Stadium. The win kept the Seminoles undefeated all-time against the Pride as the Garnet and Gold have now won all 10 games in the series.
Freshman Justin Gonzalez paced the Seminole offense in the series finale going 3-for-4 with a double, four runs scored and four RBI. As a team, Florida State tied a season-high with 14 runs while pounding out a season-high 17 hits. Stephen Cardullo and Rafael Lopez also contributed with three hits a piece in the win.
"I have said all along that this kid can play," said head coach Mike Martin on the play of Justin Gonzalez on Sunday. "This young man is making great strides and I look forward to watching his progression the rest of the season."
Stuart Tapley went 2-for-2 with two walks, two RBI and a run scored. The junior designated hitter reached base on all five plate appearances on Sunday.
"It feels great right now," said Gonzalez. "We are playing great baseball - defense, pitching - all around we are playing well. I just want to continue contributing to the team. I just want to keep playing hard, that's all they ask of me and that's all I can do."
On the mound, Tyler Everett (1-0) picked up his first career victory working three scoreless innings in relief. The junior right hander allowed just one hit and issued one walk while striking out two.
"Tyler assured us he would be available," added Martin. "He is a guy that I thought pitched well and I was happy to see him get the win."
"My mind set coming into the game today was to keep them to no more than one run," said Everett. "I was just happy to go out there, get the job done and get our team back in the dugout."
Freshman Robert Benincasa worked 2.0 plus innings in his first collegiate start. The right hander from Tampa, Fla., allowed two runs, one earned, on four hits as he walked three and struck out three. Benincasa gave up two runs in the first and looked to settle down in the second as he worked around an infield single getting a pair of groundouts and a strike out. But the in the third, the freshman gave up a lead off single to Ethan Paquette and a walk before giving way to Everett out of the bullpen.
"I was very pleased with Robert Benincasa today," added Martin. "That was a guy getting his first start."
Hofstra wasted little time to take its first lead of the series with two runs in the first. John Kenny led off the game with an infield single to short and later scored from third as Paquette drew a bases loaded walk. Elliot Hagburg would give the Pride a 2-0 advantage on a single to right scoring Matt Prokopowicz.
The lead was short lived as the Seminoles answered with two runs in the bottom of the first to tie the game at two runs a piece. Tyler Hot and James Ramsey got the ball rolling with a walk and single, respectively. The two registered a double steal and advanced one more base as the throw from Hofstra catcher Matt Hancock sailed into left field. Cardullo brought home Ramsey for the tying run on a single to right.
The Seminoles used a five-run third to take the lead for good in game three. Cardullo led off the inning with a double, while back-to-back walks to Mike McGee and Tapley loaded the bases for Sherman Johnson. Johnson went opposite field on a 3-2 pitch to plate Cardullo from third for the go ahead run. The RBI for Johnson was his 10th of the series.
Two batters later, Gonzalez cleared the bases with a double down the left field line giving FSU a 6-2 lead. Lopez would pick up his second hit in as many at-bats driving in Gonzalez with an RBI single to left.
Ramsey upped the Seminole lead to 8-2 in the fifth driving in Gonzalez, who drew a one out walk.
Four more runs in the seventh gave FSU a 12-2 lead. With Gonzalez and Lopez on at third and second with no one out, Holt drove in his first run of the game on a sac-fly to left. Cardullo brought home Lopez on an RBI single to center followed by Tapley's two-run double off the wall in right center.
FSU rounded out the scoring in the eighth scoring two more times. Sean Gilmartin picked up his first hit of the season doubling to the gap in left center to lead off the eighth. He would score one batter later as Gonzalez registered his fourth RBI of the afternoon on a single back up the middle. A single by Parker Brunelle moved Gonzalez to third and Robby Stahl would drive him in sending a sac-fly to left for his first RBI as a Seminole.
Freshmen Corben Madden and David Trexler saw their first collegiate action on the mound on Sunday, while Tye Buckley got the Garnet and Gold out of a jam in the eighth as the Tallahassee native made his first appearance in a Seminole uniform.
"It was also interesting to see the poise of Buckley out there, who came into today's game in a very tough situation," said Martin. "It was Buckley, Madden and Trexler, three guys that had not pitched at Florida State, and I thought they did a fine job in their first outing."
Madden went one inning and gave up a run on one hit and a walk while recording a strike out. Trexler lasted one-third of an inning as he faced four batters in the eighth. The freshman right hander gave up a run on one hit and walked two before giving way to Buckley. The junior college right hander left runners stranded at second and third recording a strike out and a ground out to end the inning.
Scott Sitz and Daniel Bennett each worked a scoreless inning in relief in the win.
The Seminoles return to the diamond on Tuesday, March 2 at 7:00 p.m., as Florida State takes on Florida in the first of four meetings this year. Game one between these intra-state rivals will take place down in Tampa on Steinbrenner Field in the `Florida Four' Tournament. The game will be televised live on CSS, while fans can listen in locally on 1270 the Team and 94.3 FM and on the web on Seminoles.com. Junior right hander Geoff Parker will get the start on Tuesday against the Gators.

"This dip is a refreshing change from the traditional dips you see at parties. The crisp green onions in combination with the olives and tomatoes is very reflective of the Greek salad served here in our local Greek pizza place. Serve with saltine crackers. It's always the first to go at our parties."

I personally thought this dip was just fine, but I just got back from a party where it was a HIT! I got SO many compliments on it! At the end there was some left and someone took a fork and just finished it off! It is so easy to make, very inexpensive, and obviously very popular! Like some other reviewers, I just added the dressing until the consistency looked right. I'm sure that the quality of the Caesar Dressing really impacts the quality of the final product. I just used Kraft, but the dressing does have a starring role, so if you are picky about your Caesar Dressing, then be sure to use your favorite kind. I think this would also be really good with tuna or chicken in it as more of a main dish salad for greens or sandwiches.
Very good! A nice complement to more traditional appetizers. My only advice is to be sure to squeeze out all tomato juice (so as to not turn the dip pink). Also, definitely make the day of your event. Yum!
I made this for my guests to snack on before dinner b/c it didn't sound "heavy". The first thing my husband said was "wow, this is nice & light" ~ Perfect :) I served it with club crackers & I will add the dressing a little at a time next time until I get the consistency I prefer. I am thinking the amount will depend on the type of dressing used. Thank you for the recipe - I will make this again.

Food Supply Veterinary Medicine Reports
The Food Supply Veterinary Medicine Coalition commissioned a research program to examine the current and projected future supply and demand for food supply veterinarians. The reports listed below and in the forthcoming July JAVMA provide an executive summary of the research findings. The objective of the first article is to analyze factors that influence students to select specific career paths, and describe potential methods to encourage careers in food supply veterinary medicine. The second article focuses on the frequency and reasons students and current practitioners changed career paths. The authors found that career changes were relatively uncommon among students and long-term employed veterinarians. The surveys also revealed that practitioners engaged in food supply veterinary medicine reported a high degree of job satisfaction. The final article will discuss future demand for food animal practitioners. The series of articles provides insight into the future of the profession by focusing on student, current practitioner, and academic viewpoints.

Infected feed likely cause of Canada mad cow case
16.Jun.06 Reuters Metro News
VANCOUVER, British Columbia - Officials were cited as saying on Friday that an investigation into Canada's most recent case of mad cow disease has found that contaminated feed was the likely source of the infection and might provide a link to an earlier case.
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency said the specific source of the infection, reported in April, was not found, but it said there was a feed ingredient supplier in common with a case of bovine spongiform encephalopathy that was discovered in a Canadian cow in January.
CFIA was quoted as saying in a press release that, "This potential link suggests that all of Canada's BSE cases fall within the same geographic cluster, which is reflective of feed sourcing, production and distribution patterns."
The April case, Canada's fifth native-born BSE case, involved a nearly six-year-old pure-bred Holstein dairy cow in southwest British Columbia.
Dean Of K-State's College Of Veterinary Medicine Says New Law Will Help Veterinary Students, Kansas Communities
Source: Ralph Richardson, 785-532-5884, firstname.lastname@example.com
News release prepared by: Sarah Erskine, 785-532-4187, firstname.lastname@example.com
MANHATTAN -- A bill approved by the Kansas Legislature and recently signed into law by Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius will benefit veterinary students and rural Kansas communities, according to Ralph Richardson, dean of the College of Veterinary Medicine at Kansas State University.
The law establishes the "Veterinary Training Program for Rural Kansas" at K-State's College of Veterinary Medicine.
The program will provide opportunities and incentives for students pursuing a veterinary medicine degree at K-State to locate their veterinary practice in rural Kansas communities and serve the livestock industry after they graduate, Richardson said.
A maximum of five students can be enrolled in the program each year, starting in their first year of veterinary college. Each student will receive $20,000 a year for up to four years, to cover tuition and training expenses. In turn, the students will practice veterinary medicine full time in any county in Kansas that has a population of 35,000 or less. The amount of loan forgiveness is determined by how much assistance was received. For each $20,000 a student receives, they will be required to spend a year working in the rural community.
"Other states have passed legislation for a debt forgiveness program; but to my knowledge, Kansas is the first state to pass legislation and appropriate funds for this sort of program," Richardson said.
Many reports from the American Veterinary Medical Association and the Association of American Veterinary Medical Colleges cite shortages of large animal veterinarians, Richardson said. Over the last several decades, the demand for companion animal care has increased dramatically. Many graduates would like to practice in a rural setting, however, they often say that the main reason for not pursuing rural practice is an inability to earn an adequate income and service their educational debt. As a result, many new graduates have been attracted to companion animal care rather than livestock-related veterinary medicine, he said.
"K-State is committed to being a leading institution in large animal veterinary care, animal science, biosecurity and food safety. This new law is one part of a larger undertaking to remain at the forefront of this effort," Richardson said.
"We are dedicated to supporting the livestock industry," he said. "We believe that veterinarians create a positive influence on communities of all types, particularly small, rural communities. This act removes educational debt as a stumbling block for those who wish to make their homes in rural Kansas."
Effects of age on body condition and production parameters of multiparous beef cows
J Anim Sci June 2006 Vol 84 pp. 1890-1895
B. J. Renquist, J. W. Oltjen, R. D. Sainz and C. C. Calvert
Five years of production data including quarterly BCS were collected on 454 fall-calving multiparous British crossbred cattle to evaluate associations of age with BCS and production parameters. Body condition score was correlated with dam age at all collection points (pre-calving, prebreeding, weaning, and midway through second trimester of pregnancy). At calving, breeding, and mid 2nd stage pregnancy, 3-yr-old cows had the lowest body weight and BCS, and 8-yr-old cows had the greatest. The authors found that the relationship of pregnancy rate with age appears to be correlated with the BCS decrease at breeding in the older cows. Weaning weight (205-d adjusted weaning weight) comparison to dam age revealed that ten-year-old cows weaned lighter calves than younger dams and 3-year-olds weaned calves lighter than 4- and 5- year old cows. This study documents the effects of age on calving interval, birth weight, and weaning weight that are independent of BCS.

LeMans: MotoGP Star Casey Stoner Reconfirms Retirement in France, Valentino Rossi Returns to Form With Second Place Finish
LeMans was drenched this past weekend as MotoGP raged into town. Both in rain and drama, that is. Addressing the media again after a headline filled week lined with chatter about his retirement from the sport, Oakley's MotoGP Defending World Champion Casey Stoner reaffirmed his intentions to walk away from his life as a pro rider following the season's end. But as the buzz continued off the track, the Grand Prix of France saw some of the worst conditions in recent memory. The show went on, however, opening the door for Oakley's MotoGP Legend Valentino Rossi to capitalize on the situation.

2004 Readers' Choice Awards
We know the timing of this article puts us at a disadvantage. It's November of a US presidential election year, and it's hard for our Readers' Choice awards to compete. But, we know you've been waiting to find out whether C beat C++ for Favorite Programming Language and where Gentoo fell in the top three in the Favorite Distribution category. It's time for the awards.
Ximian Evolution
Once again, the top three choices in this category were GUI-based clients. The only difference between this year's top three and last year's is the order: Mozilla jumped to first place from third, Evolution dropped to second and KMail dropped to third. The fifth-place finisher came from the write-in votes—the new Mozilla Thunderbird was only a few votes shy of fourth-place mutt this year.
Debian GNU/Linux
Debian won first place for the second year in a row, picking up almost 300 more votes than second-place Mandrakelinux. Last year's number two, Red Hat, fell to fourth this year, as Gentoo cracked the top three to come in third. The most popular write-in vote was Red Hat's all-free, community-oriented Fedora, coming in at number eight.
HP xw8200 Linux Workstation
Monarch Athlon 64 System Special
Seventy-five percent of voters agreed with the sentiments of the reader who voted for his "bastard child of desire and affordability", the ever-popular homemade desktop workstation. Like proud parents rattling off the list of talents and skills their offspring possess, voters wrote in the entire list of components in their homemade systems. Other write-in voters echoed the opinion of LJ contributing editor Greg Kroah-Hartman, who selected the Apple Power Mac G5, well supported in Linux, as his desktop of choice in this year's Editors' Choice Awards.
MySQL v4.0
Oracle 9i DB
This year's top three favorite databases were a repeat of last year's top three. Although the Editors picked PostgreSQL as their favorite back in August, readers selected MySQL over PostgreSQL by a 2 to 1 ratio. Combined, MySQL and PostgreSQL own 78% of the votes. Add in Oracle 9i and that percentage climbs to 83%. So what else are readers using for their database work? SQLite, GemStone/S and Firebird picked up less than a hundred votes apiece, and Versant was the most popular write-in vote.
Cooking with Linux
Kernel Korner
Paranoid Penguin
Ah, Marcel. Like Susan Sarandon, David Bowie and '02 Bordeaux, Cooking with Linux columnist Marcel Gagnékeeps getting better with age. Whether he's showing us a new game, recommending a lovely Australian red or demonstrating a little monitoring GUI, he's always supplying us with useful information in fun ways.
Linux in a Nutshell, 3rd Edition, Ellen Siever, et al.
Running Linux, 4th Edition, Matt Welsh, et al.
Advanced UNIX Programming, 2nd Edition, Marc Rochkind
I was beginning to think I'd never see a new title in the top three spots in the book category—just advancing edition numbers. But after five-plus years, we finally have a new one. Advanced UNIX Programming by Marc J. Rochkind landed in third place this year. Yes, it's a second edition of a book originally published in 1985, but the content is mostly new. The most popular write-in vote continued to be man pages.
Arkeia Network Backup v5.2
For another year, tar was by far the most popular backup utility, gathering votes from 65% of readers who responded. Amanda came in a distant second, garnering 5% of all votes. On the write-in side, rsync took the top spot. After that, it was a onesy-twosy game of Bacula, personal shell scripts and proprietary offerings. This is weird, though: no one said backups are for wimps.
I'm pretty sure that gentoo is #1 now. Is there 2007 award for compare?
Very nice article. My
My favorite distribution - gentoo(ubuntu?) :)

xmms is totally outdated. It's a has been. The only people who still use xmms are clueless newbies who don't know any better.

It may be old, but not deprecated. BMP is a nice attempt, but so far has some apparent bugs that need addressing before I would consider using it regularly. XMMS is rock-solid and stable for all those hours of uninterrupted music pleasure while sitting behind a text editor with your C compiler in hand.

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.

It must be nice to have friends like Joss Whedon's. The creator of the cult TV series "Angel," "Firefly" and "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" has made it a practice to invite actors he worked with for Sunday brunch at his Santa Monica home, during which they would act out a Shakespeare play of Whedon's choosing.
Then one day Whedon decided to film one of the plays, casting it with all his thespian buddies, and using his beautiful house and the Santa Monica Mountains as the setting.
The result is this delightful rendering of one of the Bard's most accessible, and most idiotic, plays.
I say idiotic, because like a lot of Shakespeare's comedies, the plot of "Much Ado About Nothing" is stupid and nearly irrelevant. But the verbal bantering is sublime, particularly when it's coming from the mouths of Beatrice (Amy Acker) and Benedick (Alexis Denisof), the sparring duo who are obviously hot for each other but don't realize it until the play is almost over.
Everything else, including the plot by the evil Don John (Sean Maher) to break up the impending marriage of Claudio (Fran Kranz) and Hero (Jillian Morgese), is just so much background to the main battle of the sexes.
"Much Ado About Nothing" has been filmed before in a more traditional 1993 production directed by and starring Kenneth Branagh, with Emma Thompson an absolutely radiant Beatrice. This version isn't as glossy as that one, which was filmed in Tuscany. But for sheer entertainment value, Whedon's version is about as good as Shakespearean cinema gets.
But Whedon's take on "Much Ado About Nothing," which is shot in luminous black and white, is initially a bit off-putting. The contemporary setting doesn't immediately jibe with the flowery language, especially when various characters refer to each other with honorific titles from the play's 16th century origins.
Yet once you go with the flow of the verbiage, you start to ignore the anachronisms, and begin to enjoy the humor, style and fine acting.
The director goes for the farcical elements of the work – there are even a few pratfalls – which might offend purists, but seem to be in keeping with the play's populist appeal. After all, if it worked with the audiences at the Globe, there's no reason it can't play in the local multiplex.
Chief among the film's many delights is Amy Acker as Beatrice, who attacks her sexy-woman-with-a-mouth-on-her role with ferocity. She's matched by Alexis Denisof's Benedick, who sometimes seems to be no match for the sarcastic woman, but ultimately proves he's no fool.
And if you're interested in the ultimate portrait of pompous idiocy, you need look no further than Nathan Fillion's night constable, Dogberry, whose incompetence and malapropisms are high points of the film.
Think of this as Shakespeare, sitcom style. And that's not damning with faint praise.
Whedon has contemporized what is essentially highbrow slapstick and made it absolutely irresistible summer fare.

Barren County's agriculture and business communities are joining forces this summer to present a daylong celebration of agriculture, the Alltech Barren County Ag Festival, and festival organizers hope to get as many locals involved as possible.
With the theme "Farm to Fork," the event will "celebrate the vital role of agriculture in the best place to live in rural America," according to a flier. The ag festival will be June 22 at Barren County High School.
The concept for this festival started as early as two to three years ago, according to Ernie Myers, executive vice president of the Glasgow-Barren County Chamber of Commerce. Barren County has had some great agriculture events, such as June Dairy Days and the Barren County Cattlemen's Association Cattle Fest, but Myers said there was a group of people who wanted to pool resources and create a bigger, more visible event that would be able to draw a larger crowd and show the community how important agriculture is.
"We decided, why not take these two celebrations and build on them and let's have one grand and glorious celebration which would celebrate agriculture in the Barrens," Myers said.
Read more of this story in the print or e-Edition of the Glasgow Daily Times.
To register for a booth at the Barren County Ag Festival, call the chamber of commerce at (270) 651-3161. The festival is June 22, from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Barren County High School.

PEEKSKILL, NY -- A local cab driver shot dead on Wednesday was killed by his wife and her lover, police said in a Friday morning press conference.
Terrance Camper's wife, 60-year-old Beatrice Camper, was arrested Friday morning and charged with second-degree murder, a felony. John Murray, a 60-year-old Newburgh resident, has also been charged with second-degree murder in connection with Terrance Camper's death.
Police believe Beatrice Camper and John Murray were having an affair, and killed Terrance Camper, 53, to collect insurance monies.
Beatrice Camper had taken out two insurance policies in her husband's name, with her as the beneficiary, in the month before the alleged murder, police said.
Police believe Beatrice Camper and Murray planned the murder together.
Beatrice Camper and Murray began their affair while Murray was in prison, authorities added. Murray was serving time for murder, and was released 11 months ago on parole.
The two defendants were arraigned in Peekskill City Court Friday, and are being held without bail. Their next court appearance will be Tuesday, Oct. 9.
Terrance Camper was shot twice in the back on the head with a small caliber handgun, police said. He was discovered by a local postal worker.
Authorities said Friday morning that Murray liked called Terrance Camper's taxi to the scene of the crime.

Barring the intervention of something miraculous, the Seattle Mariners will win more games this season than they did in 2012.
Not just a few more, by the way. I'm talking substantially more, enough to reverse their 75-87 record into a respectable 87-75.
Front-office personnel decisions made over the winter will be responsible for the turnaround, except the front office work on the Mariners' behalf does not really work on the Mariners' behalf. It works in Houston, where the Astros are awaiting their conversion from National League Central cellar dwellers to American League West bottom feeders.
Seattle's 2013 schedule includes 19 dates against the Astros, who will visit Safeco Field for three series of three games apiece, beginning with the April 8 home opener. Accommodating Houston in the league means AL teams will play traditional opponents less often.
The Yankees, for instance, used to face the Mariners nine times a season, which assured two Safeco Field series between the Yanks and M's every other year. Same with the Boston Red Sox. Both teams assured large crowds and, in any case, were easier for the Mariners to promote than the Houston Astros, whose big-league roster has fewer recognizable faces than an art-house movie with subtitles.
From a marketing perspective, less Yankees and Red Sox at Safeco Field, and more Houston Astros, is nothing to celebrate. Then again, beating the other team is usually something to celebrate, and on that score, the Astros figure to be as compliant as litter runts.
The team's 2013 payroll shrank to $15.1 million Monday when it traded shortstop Jed Lowrie – an authentic major leaguer, with a baseball card to prove it – to Oakland in exchange for some prospects. In other words, the Astros managed to get worse, which is saying something: They lost 107 times last year.
If the Astros trump that ignominious total in 2013, management won't care. It covets another premium first-round draft pick, following the organizational overhaul blueprint established at Tampa Bay and copied by the Washington Nationals: Stink it up for a few years and go cheap, while stocking the farm system with talent that paves the way for a playoff run down the road.
The Astros could be a juggernaut by 2015. But in 2013, they're looking like a cross between a punching bag and a tomato can. A punching can? A tomato bag? Something like that.
Now the Mariners get Houston for 19 games, and if they don't win at least 12 of them, there will be some 'splainin' to do, Lucy. Heck, 15 out of 19 is doable, and while a 19-for-19 season sweep might be unrealistic, we're talking about an organization whose response to finishing 55-107 was to reduce payroll.
When it comes to playing the Astros, no ambition is off the table.
Ah, but there's a caveat: The Angels and Rangers also will face the Astros 19 times, and so will the defending-division champion A's. The Mariners' improved 2013 record won't translate into an improvement from fourth place in the standings.
But at least they won't finish last, and there's a very good chance they won't finish under .500. For those bemoaning a home schedule that's reduced the visits of the Yankees and the Red Sox into one annual series apiece, consider fewer games against the Orioles (8-1 versus the Mariners in 2012, and 5-1 at Safeco Field) and the White Sox, who also were 8-1 against the Mariners last season.
The highlight of the White Sox's three-game sweep at Safeco Field was Philip Humber's perfect game on April 21. Humber followed up on that milestone by allowing 20 runs over his next three starts. He finished 5-5 with a 6.44 ERA, and on Nov. 30 was put on waivers. Houston claimed him.
So the Astros boast that guy, the author of the first of two perfect games pitched at Safeco Field last season, and they've also signed former Mariners starter Erik Bedard as a free agent. Bedard would rank as a long shot to make a normal major-league rotation, but the Astros' pitching rotation is not close to major-league standards.
Nor is their batting order, for that matter.
It'd be inaccurate to label Houston as a glorified Triple-A team, because whatever adjective describes the 2013 Astros, "glorified" ain't in the mix. But it'd be just as inaccurate to label Houston as a big-league team, because the Astros will be fortunate to win 50 games.
Whatever their designation – Quadruple-A? – the Astros' inability to fill Safeco Field seats will be offset by their tendency to fatten the Mariners' stats.
Nine home games against Houston should translate into eight victories, and a lot of second-guess quibbling over all that went wrong, so terribly wrong, in the one that got away.john.mcgrath@ thenewstribune.com

Avon resident Sydney Golic will join her two football-playing brothers, Mike Jr. and Jake at the University of Notre Dame next fall.
The Northwest Catholic senior will also join the Fighting Irish swim team, the catholic private school announced at a press conference Jan. 5.
Golic has been swimming competively since she was 6 and Rob Riccobbon has been coaching her since she was 7. She currently swims on the West Hartford Aquatic Team, specializing in the 100- and 200-meter backstroke; the 100 and 200 breaststroke; and 200 and 400 individual medley.
Since she was 10, she has often qualified for the CT Zones team, an all-star team that competes in regional meets. Golic has also won multiple state championships over the past four years.
Her swimming accolades also carry nationwide, after several qualifications for Junior Nationals and three finalist performances at national meets in Irvine, CA and Orlando, FL.
One of her 100-meter breast stroke times came close to Olympic-trial-qualifying.
At Northwest Catholic, she has been a member of the National Honor Society since she was a junior.
She is also an active volunteer at Foodshare in Bloomfield.

---- — On Wednesday, residents of the Worcester Central School District will vote on an important issue: Should the Board of Education be allowed to sell about 1.5 acres of school property for the building of a retail store? Before they vote, the people should review if this is a smart move by the board.
How the money is spent is up to the board members. They claim it will be used to maintain the health of the district by lowering the need for fund balance and reserves to keep taxes at acceptable levels. If they apply this to replace some of the reserves and fund balance, the next year we have the same problem, because that revenue is gone.
It looks like this sale is for a one-time payment of $200,000, which may not be good.
A large retailer with high buying power can put small retailers like hardware and convenience stores and markets in a reduced income or out of business. I realize that the board has the health of the district as a priority, but if the small businesses are negatively impacted, the health of the community is affected. This will impact what the community can afford to support the school.
The shared use of a property by the retailer and the school is a problem. If the access is shared, who will maintain it?
At first glance, $200,000 seems like a large sum, but the district's fiscal health will not be helped greatly by this infusion. Our solution must be long-term. If the board is looking for ways to help the fiscal health of the district, look at how it is administering the district. With fewer than 400 pupils, some areas could be reduced.
A no vote on this issue is needed.
