The Hinckley Fellow is selected through the provost's office based on outstanding teaching, service and scholarship at WSU. Both the award and lecture are made possible through a generous annual gift from the John S. Hinckley Family.

Few foods are better for your brain than walnuts. They're a great source of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that curbs your appetite, as well as vitamin E, magnesium, folate, protein, and fiber. Walnuts boast more heart-healthy omega-3 fats than salmon, making them a good antidote to seasonal depression.
This wonder nut is also packed with anti-inflammatory polyphenols. Many of the compounds in walnuts, such as vitamin B5 and folic acid, can be destroyed by heat, so it's best to eat them raw. If you find them too bitter to eat whole, use them in place of pine nuts in your pesto or grind them up and sprinkle them over cooked vegetables.

Two teachers from Poinciana High School have been reassigned to another school a day after their arrests. Osceola County deputies said one is accused of child abuse, while the other failed to report the alleged incident. Bianca Vacek, 51, is accused of burning the face of a 12-year-old boy with a lighter. She faces charges of aggravated child abuse, battery on a law enforcement officer, and resisting arrest without violence. Investigators said her husband, Thomas Vacek, who is also a teacher, is charged with failure to report child abuse and resisting arrest without violence. Both were booked into the Osceola County Jail.
Deputies took a report of the alleged child abuse on Tuesday. They spoke with the victim's mother who said she noticed what appeared to be a burn mark on her son's face. The victim was staying with the Vaceks for the past week. According to investigators, he told his mother that, while Bianca was intoxicated, she burned him with a cigarette lighter.
The Sheriff's Office said a doctor determined that the victim received burn marks near his mouth and nose.
Bianca Vacek has been with the district since 2006, while her husband has worked for the district since 1984. School administrators said she teaches special education and he is the school's 10th grade reading instructor.

Some musicians strive to make the whole world sing, never realizing that they'll always be one person short thanks to Roy, who took a vow of silence yesterday. Join almost all of humanity in song with this GrouponLive deal for one G-Pass to see Barry Manilow: Manilow on Broadway at the Consol Energy Center on Friday, April 19, at 7:30 p.m. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Because the ticket is a G-Pass, Groupon customers can use it to enter the venue directly; they will not need to redeem their Groupon at will call. Choose between the following reserved seating options:
- For $55, you get one G-Pass for seating in sections 102–103 or 111–112 (up to a $91.24 value, including all fees).
- For $35, you get one G-Pass for seating in sections 104–105 or 109–110 (up to a $70.79 value, including all fees).
Barry Manilow: Manilow on Broadway
Just as Barry Manilow's wall was not big enough to hold all his gold, silver, and multiplatinum-selling records, Broadway was not big enough to hold Barry Manilow. The fabled street didn't have enough seats for all his fans when Manilow on Broadway premiered, so Barry is personally extending the Great White Way until it runs through cities across America.
Manilow on Broadway—the blockbuster show that caused Entertainment Weekly to squeal, "You couldn't help but dance in the aisles"—may outfit its audience with green glow sticks, but at the show's heart is the showmanship and touching sincerity that moved more than 80 million records worldwide. And, of course, the irresistible tunes. "All I got is a whole bunch of hit songs," Barry announced self-deprecatingly during a recent show, "and I'm going to do them." Springing from a massive back catalog that includes 50 Top 40 hits are the anthemic pleas of "Mandy" and the tragic tales of love and murder in "Copacabana (At the Copa)." But for every classic like "I Write the Songs" and "Could It Be Magic," hardcore "Fanilows" also will be treated to deeper cuts such as the driving "Brooklyn Blues" and the bittersweet elegy of "When October Goes."
In between each hit, Manilow pauses to reminisce about his storied career, including descriptions of the tiny Manhattan apartment where he lived while working his way up. Barry's anecdotes give the music an added depth—and audiences a rare chance to hear their favorites as if for the first time.
Due to security restrictions, G-Passes must be printed out and presented in person at the event. They cannot be redeemed through Groupon's mobile app.

Weird Spiral Star Discovered —14-Billion-Miles Wide
Two spiral arms emerge from the gas-rich disk around SAO 206462, a young star in the constellation Lupus. This image, acquired by the Subaru Telescope and its HiCIAO instrument, is the first to show spiral arms in a circumstellar disk. The disk itself is some 14 billion miles across, or about twice the size of Pluto's orbit in our own solar system.
This recent discovery of a star with spiral arms startled researchers using the Subaru telescope in Hawaii. SAO 206462 is more than four hundred light years from Earth in the constellation Lupus, the wolf.
Researchers strongly suspected that new planets might be coalescing inside the disk, which is about twice as wide as the orbit of Pluto. But when they took a closer look at SAO 206462 they found not planets, but arms. Astronomers have seen spiral arms before: they're commonly found in pinwheel galaxies where hundreds of millions of stars spiral together around a common core. Finding a clear case of spiral arms around an individual star, however, is unprecedented.
The arms might be a sign that planets are forming within the disk.

GigaOM :: When you look around at the web and the state of the online economy, does it look like it has been colonized by large corporations for their own purposes, or do you see a world that is powered primarily by peer-to-peer networks? That's the question behind one of the longest-running wagers of the modern web era — a bet that author and web sceptic Nick Carr made with Harvard professor and networking theorist Yochai Benkler in 2006. Carr claims that he has won, since commercial interests rule the web, but Benkler maintains the web as we know it is clearly based on what he calls "commons-based peer production." So who is right?

Mold is a common problem in many homes and it is a good idea to use mold removal products to get rid of the mold fungus. It grows in dark, moist places, meaning that it can be inside the walls if there is a small leak that nobody knows about.
Many people claim that common household bleach (liquid chlorine bleach) will kill mold. While it does kill almost all germs and fungi, chlorine bleach can only kill mold on the surface.
It does no penetrate porous substances such as wood, drywall, or brick to get to the rootlike structures the mold sends down into the material. Fortunately, there are several commercial mold removal products that are effective to help keep you healthy.
Try one (or more) of these mold removal products to eradicate your mold problem
MoldStat Plus is a non-chlorine bleach based mold killer. It is designed for use by the do-it-yourselfer, yet is strong enough to be used by mold abatement professionals. This product works on porous and non-porous surfaces including wood (painted or unpainted), drywall, concrete, stucco, brick, metal, plastic, or carpet.
Wet and Forget is one of the mold removal products that is designed to be used only on the outside surfaces of a home. However, it can be used on the interior if the surface is composed of natural stone or wood. Sold in one gallon containers, this product is meant to be diluted so that one gallon of product makes 6 gallons of solution for killing mold and mildew.
Customers say that the product works almost exactly as claimed. One simply sprays it on the surface where mold is growing and leaves it. Wind and rain work with this mold removal product to kill surface mold and drive the product into the pores of stone, concrete, or other porous materials to kill out the rootlike structures growing into the surface.
The major drawback for most is that the process takes weeks to reach a noticeable improvement. In addition, surfaces that are most prone to mold often see regrowth or an incomplete kill out.
Mold Armor is a ready to use mold removal product designed for use inside or outside the home on any surface where mold grows. It cleans and protects the surfaces, blocking future growth for two months.
Customer reviews are all extremely favorable. This product works in seconds, without wiping or scrubbing. Users say that it simply melts the mold on contact. However, as one person put it, "It kind of makes me wonder what's happening to my lungs as I spray it, but this stuff works." Another customer says that the smell is quite strong and that the room will need to be aired well to avoid exposure to the odor. The smell is similar to concentrated bleach.
These are only a few of some widely used mold removal products available on the market. All work in a different way and have different levels of effectiveness. If someone does not want to risk chemical exposure using one of these, white vinegar is normally available in most homes and will kill mold on the surface. However, it also has a very strong smell that can be overpowering and last for days at a time. It also does not penetrate below surfaces so mold will be likely to return.
After usage of mold removal products in homes make sure to air the infested rooms for some time to avoid exposure to the mold killing agents.

PLAYERS: Nick Swisher
TEAMS: Boston Red Sox, New York Yankees, Los Angeles Dodgers
TEAMS: Boston Red Sox, New York Yankees, Los Angeles Dodgers
The Boston Red Sox have free agent outfielder Nick Swisher "on their radar," reports George A. King III of The New York Post. According to a person with knowledge of the situation the Red Sox have an interest in the switch-hitting right fielder who can also handle first base. Even after signing veteran Jonny Gomes to a two-year contract, the Red Sox remain in the market for another outfielder, according to reports. Gomes is likely to be a platoon option for Boston, who lost two outfielders last season as Cody Ross hit the open market and they traded Carl Crawford to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Last season for the Yankees Swisher hit .272/.364/.473 with 36 doubles and 24 home runs. The 31-year-old owns a career line of .256/.361/.467 over nine seasons and is expected to command a free agent contract somewhere in the four-year, $60 million range.

Canon EOS 1100D review (Rebel T3 review)
Review Date : Thu, 10 Mar 2011
Author : Mike Lowe
- Sample Photos: Canon EOS 1100D review sample images gallery
The Canon EOS 1100D (Rebel T3) builds upon the previous EOS 1000D (XS) release. But just how good is the 1100D (T3)? Can it be crowned the king of entry-level DSLRs? The What Digital Camera Canon EOS 1100D (Rebel T3) review…
|Fast AF for entry-level model, good image quality
|Build quality (plastic finish), slow live view focusing
The Canon EOS 1100D, or Canon Rebel T3 as it's known Stateside, is the latest entry-level DSLR to come from Canon's stable since the Canon EOS 1000D (Rebel XS). It's been almost three years since then, so has Canon crammed enough new features into it's latest? The What Digital Camera Canon EOS 1100D (Rebel T3) review takes a look...
Canon EOS 1100D Review (Rebel T3 Review) - Features
Entry-level or budget DSLR cameras haven't been a particular area of focus for a number of years. The emergence of the 1100D (Rebel T3) comes some two and a half years after the 1000D (Rebel XS) and looks to up the ante against the likes of the Nikon D3100 and Sony's increasingly-prominent range of Alpha DSLRs.
Under the 1100D's hood there's an updated 12.2MP CMOS sensor, raising the resolution slightly over the previous 1000D's 10.1MP capacity. A shrewd move, we feel, given that so many other manufacturers are cramming megapixels onto sensors at the cost of image quality. Coupled with the latest DIGIC 4 processor and sensitivity from ISO 100-6400 this should mean the 1100D (T3) is one fairly mean beast not to be messed with.
Elsewhere the 1100D (T3) ups the ante in the autofocus (AF) department by offering a 9-point system that adds an extra two points at the (horizontally) wider ends of the array compared to the previous 1000D's 7-point system. A single f/5.6 sensitivity cross-type sensor features in the centre for enhanced sensitivity when shooting in both portrait and landscape orientation.
On the rear of the 1100D (Rebel T3) is a 2.7in, 230k-dot LCD screen - perhaps a bit of a shame that it's not larger and more resolute, as this really is the current minimum you'd expect on a DSLR. A button on the rear pops the camera into live view for a real-time screen preview and, with the camera set to Movie mode, it's now possible to capture 720p HD video.
Above the 1100D's screen is an optical viewfinder that offers 95% field of view and a 0.8x magnification for a reasonable physical size. The field of view represents the percentage of the final image that you can frame up in the viewfinder, i.e. there's 5% missing that will appear in the final captured image (very common for budget DSLRs).
The 1100D (T3) also has some slightly more advanced features such as A-DEP that looks at the subject to obtain a foreground through to background focus by auto-setting aperture and ISO, or the CA mode that helps to simplify background blur control using a five-level slider. There's also a cable release option for those looking to make long exposures without touching the camera. Even the white balance mode has the ability to adjust for magenta/green and blue/amber casts and has an auto-bracketing option not seen in other entry-level models.

Calling All Lawyers
There is a job opportunity for a good lawyer. If Murphy's Law isn't done kicking the living daylights out of Kevin Lowe, this kid will be a Duck next summer.
There is a job opportunity for a good lawyer. If Murphy's Law isn't done kicking the living daylights out of Kevin Lowe, this kid will be a Duck next summer.
Talk about post-traumatic-stress syndrome.
Sam Gagner had a goal and an assist today.
Look at the Phoenix roster.
PHX is definitely the worst club in the majors.
I can't see it being much of an issue myself. Ovechkin missed the cutoff for the '03 draft by only 3 days, and exceptions weren't made for him.
Tavares should worry more about the series he's in right now.
Speaking of Gagner… both the assist and the goal today were of the highlight-reel variety. Kid's definitely got a set of hands.
Anaheim sounds like they're going to deal the pick. Mind you if we're in last place at the deadline they might think twice.
I'm pretty confident we'll be middle of the road though.
Even if things do not go our way this year I do not see our pick being quite low enough to even have a shot at the kid.
Tavares is going to Phoenix next year. Book it.
Phoenix has to win the thing too remember. Being the worst team is only what, 25%?
But Turis/Tavares would be a solid foundation for whatever coach eventually replaces 99.
Tavares won't be going to the draft this year, you can bet on that.
But anyway, last place team has a 50% chance to keep the first overall pick.
Gagner has looked good so far, but it's interesting to learn that he's playing injured again. It seems everytime he's in the hockey news he's also injured. Should be interesting to see how he fares next year as an 18 year old, and subsequently to see if he can make the team the following year.
I would predict the Oiler #1 pick (now Anaheim's) and Anaheim's #1 pick (now the Oilers') will be within 10 places of one another.
With the potential Niedermeyer retirement, the Penner loss and a key Pronger injury (finger's crossed)- they could be in a playoff spot battle themselves this season. The Western Conference is going to be dominant again this season and with Dallas and San Jose in their division both solid once again – you just never know.
Speaking of a powerful Western Conference, here is MY (albeit early) prediction in the NW Division:
Wow, that could be WAY wrong.
My point is that any team could be first or last… should be fun.
Chris alludes to an interesting issue. If Phoenix does manage to land Tavares, they could end up being the Penguins, part 2 – an extremely talented group of youngsters attained through years of mediocrity.
Unfortunately (or is it fortunately?!), that's something that the Oilers have almost always lacked…we make that perpetual drive for 8th that always precludes us from getting a reasonable shot at a top 3 pick.
By mediocrity you actually mean years of abject horror. Mediocrity is what the Oilers are at this point, and mediocrity does not a modern Penguins make…only a flat out, sustained train wreck gets you Crosby, Malkin, Staal, Whitney, Fleury, et al.

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) - As expected, fired Texas Tech coach Mike Leach's attorney, Ted Liggett, filed new paperwork in Leach's lawsuit against Texas Tech University. They expect a trial in the next six weeks.
Today's filings include a request to the court to force Texas Tech to quickly turn over documents related to the University's football program. Liggett filed the paperwork just after 4:00 p.m. on Thursday.
The document filed is 100 pages long. These are just extensions of the original lawsuit that Leach filed while he was still suspended as the Texas Tech football coach. The first motion asked for an expedited hearing, the second for expedited discovery.
That means Leach and his attorneys want a full scale investigation related to his firing.
The coach's legal team filed court documents Thursday asking a state judge to allow them to depose administrators and others in about two weeks. They want to question is Adam James, the player whose injury ultimately led to Leach's dismissal last month. They also want to question Tech Athletic Director Gerald Myers, Texas Tech President Guy Bailey, and Tech Chancellor Kent Hance.
Leach's legal team wants emails, notes, and all other information that pertains to this case.
Local attorneys say this is an aggressive move for the expedited hearing and expedited discovery. Leach and his attorneys do not want this process to drag on longer that it needs to. They don't want it to be delayed.
What we can expect, the judge can either grant or deny the hearing. And then discuss the expedited motion for discovery.
NewsChannel 11 is looking through the 100 page document that was filed and will bring you more, coming up tonight.
See the motion filed, CLICK HERE.
On December 30th, 2009, NewsChannel 11 was in the courtroom awaiting a petition hearing to allow Leach to coach the Red Raiders at the Alamo Bowl, after he was suspended for allegedly mistreating a football player after an injury.
After numerous delays in the trial, Mike Leach's attorney, Ted Liggett, walked into the courtroom and announced that Leach had been fired.

I'm done. This is dumb. Everyone deserves the right to their opinion and thoughts and if you do not agree, and there is nothing phobic about what was said then keep your god damn mouth shut that's all there is to it. I'm sick of how everyone thinks it's okay to attack someone for spiritual beliefs or anything else that someone feels is true. It's fucking persecution and oppression and if you don't realise that you're stupid as a bag of bricks. Seriously, just shut the fuck up, because I'm not listening to this mind numbingly stupid shit.

Bright Eyes - Jejune Stars directed by Lance Acord.
This might be my favourite song off the new record. The intro really reminds me of Cursive.
Letting Off The Happiness - Bright Eyes
I can't believe this was released 13 years ago. There are some seriously depressing songs on this record. I love it so much.
On Wednesday, I went to see Bright Eyes. It was beyond incredible. I had seen them play once at the Koko and later on that year at Le Bataclan in Paris when they were touring for Cassadaga, and those shows were wonderful. But the setlists do not compare to the one from Wednesday. They played quite a few songs from Lifted, Fevers and Mirrors and Digital Ash. The new songs sounded amazing live. In general, that band make the best sounds. It is impossible to not be entirely in love with Conor Oberst. Hearing him sing the recent songs as well as the ones he wrote about 16 years ago just as convincingly makes me very happy. Sometimes I forget that one of the reasons I love Bright Eyes so much is because of how beautiful the lyrics are. It's such an obvious fact to me that I've taken it for granted. So when I was hearing those songs played live, remembering how great they are, it was almost as if I was hearing them for the first time. After a gig like that, I struggle to understand why anyone would dislike Bright Eyes.
The story is in the soil, keep your ear to the ground
The full stream of The People's Key. It's amazing. They are musical geniuses.
I think I am about to be overwhelmed. If this really is the last album then I'm going to be quite sad. Bring on the 9th of February at Rescue Rooms.

The dream of the super-efficient car has resided in our cultural consciousness for decades, but its image has been fought over by two camps, each with their own different visions of the future. Is the efficient car a necessity for our upcoming Mad Max post-fuel wasteland society or an inevitable stepping stone toward a gleamingly green scientific utopia, where we zip around a healthy planet in vehicles that look like they were designed by Steve Jobs?
Both philosophies — and others — are at work in Ingenious, a new book by journalist Jason Fagone that offers an immersive account of the automotive challenge issued by the X Prize Foundation in 2007. The gauntlet thrown down was a weighty one: The first team that could design a mass-producible car that could make it 100 miles on a single gallon of gas (or its energy equivalent in an alternate fuel) would take home a cool $10 million. This was an exercise in populism as much as futurism: teams of rogue inventors and mechanics were as encouraged to compete as car companies and scientific firms.
Fagone focuses on the rogues, specifically four teams from across the country: a husband and wife duo working out of an Illinois barn; a merry band of engineers from Virginia; a group of west Philadelphia high school kids whose redemptive story is ripe for film optioning; and a slick Southern California start-up with venture capital to burn. Fagone's reporting is as personal as it is scientific, and he spends as much time getting a sense for the inventors as for the invented. His focus, we come to see, is less about the relationship between piston and crankshaft and more about father and son, teacher and teen, rival and rival. Hope springs eternal here, and can, we see, fuel a car for quite a ways.
He writes of one of the competitors: "Kevin really believes all this stuff about the value of mavericks and the power of crazy ideas and the Prize as a level playing field. He believes that nothing is impossible when you're building a car because all is engineering, and engineering, in the words of historian Henry Petroski, is merely 'the rearrangement of what is.' "
The myriad design philosophies of the teams chasing the prize, from such different backgrounds, leads to a gestalt that looks something like the Pod Races from Star Wars: Episode I. But although there is plenty here to interest those who spend their weekends tinkering under their car in an oil-stained driveway, the book is at its core a story of Lindbergh-esque triumph of man over machine. Or maybe man astride machine? (Another echo of Lindbergh was the designers' battle against the weight of their machines. "Lightness!" Fagone writes. "A cardinal virtue of human vehicles going back to the covered wagon, the chariot, the dogsled.")
Fagone is as adept in the language of the garage as he is in the inspirational argot of the Ted Talk, referring to "human potential" with an eye toward market upheaval and the evolution of society. Perhaps that's a bit much, but one thing is clear: Our love affair with the internal combustion engine, like all affairs, must come to an end. When we ride into the sunset of the next automotive age, hopefully we'll make it all the way on one tank.

Danielle Steel
Adult Fiction STEEL
Summary: In this beguiling new novel, Danielle Steel tells the story of three very different people, each of whom, on the same day, reaches a crucial turning point in life--a rite both bittersweet and full of hope, a time to blow out the candles, say goodbye to the past, and make a wish for the future. nbsp; Valerie Wyatt is the queen of gracious living and the arbiter of taste. Since her long-ago divorce, she's worked hard to reach the pinnacle of her profession and to create a camera-ready life in her Fifth Avenue penthouse. So why is she so depressed? All the hours with her personal trainer, the careful work of New York's best hairdressers, cosmetic surgeons, and her own God-given bone structure and great looks can't fudge the truth or her lies about it: Valerie is turning sixty. Valerie's daughter, April, has no love life, no rest, and no prospect of that changing in the foreseeable future. Her popular one-of-a-kind restaurant in downtown New York, where she is chef and owner, consumes every ounce of her attention and energy. Ready or not, though, April's life is about to change, in a tumultuous transformation that begins the morning it hits her: She's thirty. And what does she have to show for it? A restaurant, no man, no kids. Jack Adams once threw a football like a guided missile. Twelve years after retiring from the NFL, he is the most charismatic sports analyst on TV, a man who has his pick of the most desirable twentysomething women. But after a particularly memorable Halloween party, Jack wakes up on his fiftieth birthday, his back thrown out of whack, feeling every year his age. A terrifying act of violence, an out-of-the-blue blessing, and two extremely unlikely love affairs soon turn lives inside out and upside down. In a novel brimming with warmth and insight, beginning on one birthday and ending on another, Valerie, April, and Jack discover that life itself can be a celebration--and that its greatest gifts are always a surprise. nbsp; nbsp;

Strengths: I thought it was great. Minimal bob, great feel during it's stroke and enough adjustment to set it up nicely and forget about it. Easy to rebuild.
Weaknesses: Got stuck down, I took it apart and rebuilt it. It got stuck down again soon after. Better to send it to Fox or Push when you get the stuck down problem, I heard they have permanent fixes. During the first stuck down occurance I decided to get a RP23, blows the Float out of the water in every way. That I would say is the biggest weakness of the Float, once you ride something like the RP23, what's the point of using a Float.
