If you think the industry's leading V-twin powered Recreation Utility Vehicle (RUV) should pack a handful of cool extras as standard equipment, you'd be right – and you'd be talking about Kawasaki's Teryx® 750 FI 4x4 LE. What sets the upscale LE apart from our other class-leading RUVs are its luxury touches, which include a cab roof, deflector windshield, a retractable cup holder and high quality, automotive-style paintwork.
The style, comfort and class you expect from the leading RUV in the business
If you think the industry's leading V-twin powered Recreation Utility Vehicle (RUV) should pack a handful of cool extras as standard equipment, you'd be right – and you'd be talking about Kawasaki's Teryx® 750 FI 4x4 LE. What sets the upscale LE apart from our other class-leading RUVs are its luxury touches, which include a cab roof, deflector windshield, a retractable cup holder and high quality, automotive-style paintwork.
The original Teryx 750 FI 4x4 LE bested the competition immediately after its introduction a few years ago, scoring big with journalists and buyers all over America. Over the years it's been continually refined, receiving digital fuel injection and a host of other upgrades in 2009, and an aggressive new front end with a hinged, forward-tilting hood, easier maintenance, a better cooling system, a sturdier tilting bed and several other improvements for added vehicle durability in 2010.
For 2011 things are status quo, which makes sense for an RUV with this much performance, function and durability. And heck, why mess with a great thing?
Power is key when it comes to a performance RUV like the Teryx LE, and when it comes to power, no other RUV can touch this one's 749cc 90-degree eight-valve V-twin. Not only is this engine plenty powerful down low and higher in its rev range, its 90-degree configuration gives it perfect primary balance for unmatched smoothness at any rpm - and a great exhaust note that sets the Teryx LE apart from lesser RUVs.
Feeding that impressive engine its cocktail of fuel and air is the Teryx LE's advanced digital fuel-injection system. The system offers automatic elevation compensation, automatic idle adjustment and easy, choke-free starting via a sophisticated array of sensors for inlet air pressure, throttle position, crankshaft position, rpm, water temperature and a vehicle down sensor. There's also an ignition cut-out feature that won't allow the Teryx LE to be ridden away when the parking brake is engaged. That new braking system technology complements the Teryx LE's CVT Belt Protection System, which automatically retards ignition timing if the system detects engine operation at high rpm for more than two seconds while the rear wheels are motionless (i.e., the belt is slipping) and warns the rider via a flashing belt warning lamp on the dash.
All that electronically enhanced performance is packaged in an advanced chassis narrow enough to navigate most trails (and fit in a standard pickup bed), yet wide enough to offer a roomy cab and a great ride. The wide-track frame uses large-diameter, thin-walled tubing to combine tremendous rigidity with light weight. And the upper frame combines cool style and protection with enough room inside to fit two full-sized adults in a comfortable but supportive pair of bucket seats with retractable three-point seat belts.
Once comfortably buckled in, the rider can choose two-wheel drive or four-wheel drive with the flip of a switch, and Kawasaki's super-efficient continuously variable transmission takes it from there, taking you practically anywhere you feel like going. A cockpit-adjustable variable front differential control even lets you fine tune front-end traction. And while you're doing all that, the LE's half windshield and cab top shield you from the elements, while its retractable cup holders make it easy to grab a refreshing drink on the go.
Long-travel four-wheel independent suspension, adjustable Kayaba gas-charged shocks at all four corners, a rear stabilizer bar and mid-ship engine placement all work together to tame tough trails, while a high-performance long A-arm double-wishbone suspension design that reduces camber changes offers sharp steering at all times. When it's time to slow down, dual discs up front and a high-tech sealed oil-bath brake system in back get the job done with power to spare, while Kawasaki Engine Braking Control uses clever electronics to assist with engine braking while driving down hills. Specially designed 26-inch Maxxis tires custom-built for the Teryx LE's design characteristics are the final ingredient in its amazingly potent handling package.
All in all, this one does it all – and does it in style.
A large selection of authentic Kawasaki Accessories are available through Kawasaki dealers for the 2011 Teryx 750 FI 4x4 LE. As with all off-highway vehicle recreation, Kawasaki encourages RUV drivers to drive responsibly and to respect the environment.

Many years ago, at a wedding, we were served rolled lasagna, stuffed with something I don't remember (shrimp salad?) and placed on end. It was good, but I was impressed with the presentation and it has always been in the back of mind. So, I've been thinking of something along those lines and here is what I have come up with. It would have layers of red, white and green and a bit of crunch from the red bell pepper. Any thoughts or suggestions? I plan to make this in the not-to-distant future.
Rolled Lasagna Appetizer
Cook wavy-edge lasagna. Rinse in cold water and lay out on cookie sheet with a thin coating of EVOO.
Spread a thin layer of green olive tapenade on pasta – keep between waves and leave 3/4 inch space bare at each end.
Spread a thin layer of finely mashed white albacore tuna in olive oil on top of tapenade.
Spread a thin layer of finely chopped red bell pepper on top of tuna.
Cut off the root ends of green onions. Cut off the tops so the green onion is 3 inches longer than the width of a lasagna noodle. Split the top 3 inches into quarters.
Lay green onion on one end of noodle with root end even with one side and gently roll into a spiral. Secure spiral with 2 toothpicks. Flip onto side, onto a spatula, with green onion top sticking out. Gently slide onto small serving plate. Place a cherry or grape tomato into center of split green onion top. Drizzle with a teaspoon of EVOO, sprinkle with fresh cracked black pepper and coarse salt and serve.

Animal Mind
Course Description
This course is designed to introduce you to the field of cognitive
ethology. Cognitive ethology is the study of animal mind in natural
settings. We will contrast the position of the cognitive ethologists
with that of the behaviorists. Although behaviorism no longer has
a strangle hold on psychological theory, the behaviorist paradigm
still has a significant effect on experimental psychology. Attributing
mind to animals is a controversial step. After examining positions
within psychology we will then examine the nonscientific descriptions
of animal mind – animal psychics, writers of dog self-help
literature and animal rights activists all have opinions on animal
thought. These conflicting literatures will allow you to further
develop your critical thinking skills as we investigate and debunk
some of the notions prevalent in popular literature.

Pippa, Carole, and Kate Middleton.Kate Middleton would allegedly like to hire her mom, Carole Middleton, to be the royal nanny. A supposed friend of the Duchess told an Australian magazine that Kate wants her mother to help her care for the future king or queen of England when he or she arrives in July, breaking tradition of hiring a royal nanny equipped with all the bells and whistles of childcare expertise.
After the rough pregnancy Kate's had with the hyperemesis and all, I can totally understand why she'd want her mom to be there to help her with the baby, and not some stranger.
Especially after what went down at the hospital during her first trimester. To know that someone took their own life because they were apparently so distraught after unknowingly being a part of some radio DJ's ploy to get news on your pregnancy has got to make one a little gun shy about hiring someone from the outside.
Kate, like all new moms, just wants someone she can trust. Hiring help can almost cause as much stress as it alleviates -- is this person qualified? will she care for my baby as she would her own? what if she burps my baby on a non-organic cloth!! -- so if Kate's mom is willing to lend a hand, I think it's a win-win all around.
Even though the Duchess has all the money in the world and everything she could ever want for her, or her baby, is but an intercom page away, she's still like everyone else and just wants trusted family around when the little bundle of joy arrives.
Because when the shit hits the fan, and the diaper, there's no one better to help clean things up than mom.
Did your mom help you out after giving birth?
Photo via Christopher Furlong/Getty
Yes, and it was great, but I miss her more for my daughter now in her teen years. They would have been great friends, following an already lovely love affair that only grands and children can have.
No, my mom lives about 1000 miles away, has a career and four other kids of childbearing age scattered around the country so she's not really available for my full time nanny. They did visit for a week shortly after the birth and several long weekends over the first year of both.
I'm sure if we were in the situation of Kate mom would have helped out but I can't see her wanting or agreeing to be paid for it.
Yes my mom helped after both births of my children now age 12 and 15.
Yes my mom helped during and after birth

TSN 1260′s Jason Gregor reported this afternoon that RNH's progress is to the point where he took part in contact drills today, and there is light at the end of the tunnel.
- Gregor: Ryan Nugent-Hopkins took part in contact drills today, and it looks very likely that he could return next Thursday vs. the Habs. There is a slim chance we'll see him sooner, but unless he suffers a setback, I think we will see him no later than next Thursday. His return will be a huge boost for the Oilers.
When the Nuge returns, coach Dallas Eakins will have to make a decision. Does he move Taylor Hall back to the wing:
- Nuge-Hall-Eberle
- Arcobello-Perron-Yakupov
- Gordon-Joensuu-Hemsky
- Acton-Gazdic-Smyth
Or does he keep Hall in the middle:
- Hall-Perron-Eberle
- Nuge-Joensuu-Yakupov
- Gordon-Smyth-Hemsky
- Acton-Gazdic-Brown
What say you? I like the strength up the middle, and also like the look of the veteran 3line in the second edition above. Finally, both of the lines put Nail Yakupov in a more offensively attractive position and for me that's a massive item for this club.

UConn surpassed last season's victory total with a 68-55 victory at Temple on Thursday night.
The Huskies improved to 21-5 overall, 9-4 in the American Athletic Conference. They've won seven of their last eight games.
Senior Shabazz Napier played his usual starring role, finishing 17 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists. It is his fifth double-double this season. While he converted just 3 of 11 from the field, he hit all 11 free throw attempts.
Three other Huskies scored in double figures: Ryan Boatright (14), DeAndre Daniels (13) and Amida Brimah (10). Brimah also added five rebounds.
They swept the season series from the Owls, who shot just 34 percent from the field.
They're tied with Memphis for fourth place in the AAC. They host third-place SMU on Sunday afternoon in Storrs.
They moved to 5-3 on the road, improving on last season's 4-5 mark away from home.

Jim Cramer's 6 Stocks in 60 Seconds: A LINE GOGO P AMAT COST
Check out Jim Cramer's latest trading recommendations on "Action Alerts Plus".
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Here's what Jim Cramer had to say on CNBC's "Squawk on the Street" Friday.
Agilent Technologies (A) will split up the company by November 2014, and Cramer added that it "had a good quarter."
Linn Energy
(LINE) and Berry Petroleum
(BRY) have filed definitive proxy materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding their merger. Cramer said that although there are a lot of big shorts on Linn, they likely will be proved wrong.
Morgan Stanley downgraded GoGo (GOGO) to sell from hold, but Cramer said the stock is a "winner" because of the FAA's new rules.
J.P. Morgan raised its price target on Pandora (P) ahead of next week's earnings report, and Cramer called the price action a "good short squeeze."Applied Materials (AMAT) is trying to merge with Tokyo Electron, but that might not happen due to antitrust concerns, according to Cramer. Sterne Agee raised its price target on Costco Wholesale (COST) to $144, and Cramer said that it had the "best comps of any retailer."

Many people in Louisiana work in jobs where they are exposed to asbestos and other toxic chemicals. Short- and long-term exposure to asbestos can lead to lung cancer, asbestosis and other cancers that can drastically affect a person's health. At Martzell & Bickford, we pursue claims for people who have been exposed to asbestos in the workplace. Over the past three decades we have been representing clients in mesothelioma and lung cancer cases. We fight hard to achieve justice for our clients and are known for our legal abilities.
Mesothelioma In The Workplace
Manufacturing processes in certain work environments can cause tiny fibers to float around in the air. Some of these fibers are asbestos-containing products and can enter the body when breathed through the nose, mouth or when it settles on clothing. Other family members can be exposed to asbestos in situations where fibers are brought into the household, and thus at an increased risk for also developing lung cancer or other serious medical conditions.
At Martzell & Bickford, we have represented individuals in New Orleans and throughout Louisiana. You deserve to be represented by an experienced and recognized team. We will stand up for your interests. Visit our pages on common trades and Louisiana work sites for more information.
Knowing What To Expect From Our Attorneys
When you work with our team, you will be expected to provide many details about your medical condition and confirm that your doctor has diagnosed you with mesothelioma. Our team will gather the facts and evidence of your case and work to develop an effective legal strategy. Throughout the entire legal process, we provide compassionate guidance for our clients and will address the legal and real life issues of the situation.
Contact Our Louisiana Asbestos Litigation Lawyers
Please contact the lawyers at Martzell & Bickford to schedule a free initial consultation. You can also reach us by phone at 504-662-1230 or toll free at 800-672-0104. We are here to help and get you through the challenges associated with an injury or complicated legal issue. Off-site appointments are available to those who are too injured to come into our office. We are conveniently located in the Warehouse District.

Former Mac family charged with Texas bank robbery
Nov 12, 2012 | 8 Comments
News-Register Staff
KATY, Texas — Fort Bend County sheriff's detectives say three members of a family formerly of McMinnville are being held in connection with the Oct. 1 robbery of a bank in this suburb just west of Houston.
Ronald Scott Catt, 50, and his 20-year-old son, Hayden, were arrested Friday for holding up the First Community Credit Union.
Deputies said the two men dressed in orange construction vests, ball caps and dark glasses to execute the 1:45 p.m. robbery. The pair displayed pistols and left with a bag of cash, deputies said.
Catt's daughter, Abigail, 18, wore a fake mustache and drove the getaway car, deputies said. She is also facing an aggravated robbery charge for her role in the incident.
The Catts lived in McMinnville from the 1990s until last year. Public records show that Ronald Catt applied for a marriage license in Yamhill County in 1998, listing himself as an engineer. He divorced two years later, after his wife was convicted of a domestic assault.
In early 2011, Catt was booked into Yamhill County Jail on charges of driving on a revoked or suspended license.
Both children were honor students at Duniway Middle School and heavily involved in competitive swimming with McMinnville Swim Club.
Hayden, who graduated from Mac High in 2010, also starred for the Grizzly swim team. He was a key contributor at state.
All three members of the family are being held in the Fort Bend County Jail. The father and son were booked on $140,000 bond each, the daughter on $100,000.
The Catts were arrested after a Texas crime stoppers program offered a reward of up to $25,000 for information leading to apprehension of suspects.

I can just hear them saying "but, but, but we're from McMinnville Oregon. We know a lady who robbed a bank in Willamina and nothing bad happened to her. All she had to do was rake bark dust at the park and sweep the steps of the courthouse and say she was sorry and promise to never be naughty again. Can't we do the same??" To which the Texas judge responds "you aint in Oregon anymore folks. Bailiff, get a rope."

This little guy joining our family has to be the highlight of my 2013! What a joy he is, always happy. My resolution this year is to take a cue from little Ian and just be happy, live life to the fullest.
Today is the last day of vacation. Oh, how I have enjoyed my time off and hate to see it end. So to make the most of it I am doing a couple of my favorite things. Watching Randolph Scott westerns and sewing a binding on a quilt that was started back in the 90's.
I hope everyone had fun ending the year last night. I spent the evening with some really crazy friends and it was memorable. I am looking forward to all that 2014 brings my way.

The season is almost over. I have to say it has been a really nice one for me this year. I had decided early on to just slow down and enjoy it. Most of my shopping was done online, I never did have to make a trip to the mall. Instead time was spent with friends enjoying a nice dinner and a cranberry martini or two.
I made a visit to Santa and Mrs. Claus with the grandkids then we enjoyed a big pancake and sausage breakfast afterwards. They have spent a couple of nights with grandma in their newly made up bedroom. We have spent lots of time reading books, singing songs and dancing. Nothing beats dancing with these two little sweeties!
Early mornings have been spent with a cup of coffee and Jane Austen. So far I have read Pride and Prejudice and I am in the middle of Persuasion. I do love a good classic.
I have a whole stack of books pulled out to read again to inspire me for the new year. And my new sewing room is bright and warm and ready for me to get busy in.
I fully believe that we choose the joy in our life. I hope that you have had a joyful holiday season!

I agree with comment above , it will make it better.
Watching the Packers – Niners game, looks to me like the Pack is going home for good, the Niners are a well-oiled machine out there in San Fran. Did anybody see the look in Rodgers eyes right before the Niners scored the second go ahead touchdown to make em 14 points up. It was like he was saying, no way we will win this thing.
I love my Falcons, and I don't doubt they will beat Seattle tomorrow, but if they expect to go to a Superbowl this year, the games coming up starting tomorrow, they are going to have to play their hearts out and be on their A- game to get to it or in other words, they will have to play their best football this Season starting tomorrow forward……………………..good luck and maybe with a little bit of luck on their sides they can pull it off.

First I want to congratulate the Falcons for winning a nail biter today against the Seahawks. I am a Kansas City Chief fan (I know, but I do love my Chiefs) I have been a fan of Tony Gonzalez for years. He is a great tight end but more than that he is a good person and a leader. I just want to say that I am so proud he has finally won a play-off game and if he can't play for the Chief's I'm thrilled he's moving on up in the play-offs with the Falcons. I hope you make it to the Super Bowl and beat the heck out of whoever!! GO FALCONS!!

Everyone's Got an Opinion!
I always wondered why my friends were so anxious for me to become pregnant. "It's just something you have to do," one friend once said. Funny how they never thought that -- until THEY did it.
Pregnancy is Surreal
Being pregnant for the first time is surreal. At first. Once you get over the initial shock, and once you've exhausted those long "We're about to embark on something magical" talks with your husband, you're left to go on about your days as usual. Well, almost usual.
"My First Priority is Being a Mom"
We've all heard a celebrity mom say during an interview (hello, Angelina!), "My first priority is being a mom" -- as they sit at their latest movie set.
Stress Equals Pregnancy?
You know how people say it'll happen when you're not stressed? "Oh, that's why you got pregnant ... You were relaxed, you weren't sweating the small stuff ..." I suppose that makes sense, but I got pregnant at the height of my stress.

4 tips for white elephant parties
With so many variables, some participants are bound to be disappointed with their gift. Here's how to reduce that risk.
This post comes from Mikey Rox at partner blog Wise Bread.
Chances are you've been invited to one of two types of soirees this holiday season -- an ugly sweater party or a white elephant party. The former is self-explanatory. Everybody wears the ugliest holiday sweater they can find -- usually obtained from a thrift store or their mom's closet. The latter, however, is a regional name for a more generic gift exchange.
The rules of the white elephant party are simple. Everybody who attends is required to bring a wrapped gift worth no more than a specified amount, generally between $10 and $20. At the height of the party, the guests will convene to unwrap presents in an order, most likely decided by numbers drawn from a hat. Each person will then choose a gift in order.
The first person picks a gift, opens it, and shows it to the rest of the party. In turn, the rest of the participants, in order, choose to either unwrap a new gift or to "steal" a previously unwrapped gift. If a gift is "stolen," the person who had their gift taken is allowed to unwrap a wrapped gift, and the turn passes. When all the gifts have been opened, the game is over.
You can already tell how awkward this can get, right? There are so many variables: the personality of the gift buyer, the potentially offensive or disappointing gift, and the hurt feelings of those who get a crappy gift. Not to mention that if you're chosen to go first, you can bet you're going to end up with the worst gift there is. On the flip side, whoever chooses last basically has pick of the litter because no one can steal his or her gift. Post continues below.
If you're invited to a white elephant gift-exchange party this year, try to avoid awkward moments with these four tips:
Stay on budget. If the host of the party sets a limit for how much you should spend on the required gift, stick to the limit. That doesn't mean the gift must be worth the limit -- for instance, if the limit is $20, a $15 gift is perfectly fine -- but it should not exceed it. Going over budget can make the other guests feel cheap. Even if you're re-gifting, which a lot of people do for these parties, be conscious of the original retail price of the gift. Just because you didn't shell out money for it doesn't mean it has no value.
Buy usable items. I once went to a white elephant party where a participant in the gift exchange brought a gift card to a grocery store that was very local for her. Unfortunately, none of the stores are near where I live, so I couldn't use the gift card. I gave it back to her so it wouldn't go to waste, but it was a little annoying.
When buying your gift, make sure it's all-purpose and preferably consumable. Personally, I don't want gifts that take up space in my home. Besides, you don't know what people already have. (Someone brought a coffee mug to that party, as if no one had one of those already.) While the party wouldn't be fun if everyone brought a gift card, try to think outside the box for your gifts while keeping in mind that not everyone will be from the same area you are. Keep this in mind when shopping -- go generic, but clever.
Just say no to alcohol. This isn't meant to say that you can't drink at the party, but the gift you bring for the exchange should not be alcohol for two reasons. The first is that everyone will know what the gift is. Have you ever tried to wrap a bottle of wine or six-pack of beer? After wrapping it, it still looks like a bottle of wine or a six-pack of beer.
Secondly, not everyone at the party will be a drinker. There may be a recovering alcoholic among the participants. Can you think of anything worse than giving a bottle of booze to someone struggling with alcohol addiction? It's not a good look.
Above all, have fun. The gifts brought to a white elephant party aren't meant to be serious, so there's no need to pout if you get a gag gift. Some participants will bring thoughtless duds while others will bring gifts you really want. Whether you get the gift you have your eye on or not, keep your smile on. This party is all in fun, and acting ungrateful or childish will only ruin it for everyone else.
Ever been to a white elephant party? Have a funny story to tell about an awkward moment? Let me know in the comments below.

text: In 1989 there was no NSX, the new Ferraris all pretty much sucked, the Camaro was a Jersey-trolling IROC bucket, 5.0-liter Mustangs were sorta-quick but primordial, the Supra was more crushed velour than quarter-mile crusher, and the Corvette was clearly aimed at 50-year-old waterbed salesmen wearing Sansabelt slacks and bad comb-overs. It was into this shallow pond of mediocrity that Nissan lobbed in its fourth-generation Z-car-the gorgeous and brilliant performing Z32. The new 300ZX's splash was big. The new 300-horsepower 300ZX Twin Turbo's splash was dang near a tsunami. Sebastian Chacoff and Greg Dupree's Specialty-Z shop (www.specialtyz.com) in Woodland Hills, California, is a sort of monastery for hardcore believers in the one, true turbocharged Z32 faith. It's where Dupree, Chacoff and their acolytes pore over sacred scrolls like the original Z32 shop manuals; dig deep into every ancient artifact they can get their hands on; and work constantly towards achieving the ecstatic religious experience of the perfect quarter-mile run. Build the perfect 300ZX Twin Turbo, and the driver should be able to touch the face of God in less than 10 seconds. Every spiritual journey starts with a single step. In this case, that step was acquiring a 1990 300ZX Twin Turbo. This one almost acquired them. "We got this Z32 back in 2004," explains Dupree. "It was a customer's car, but the customer skipped town while we were in the middle of a huge rebuild. We let the car sit for over two years until finally we exercised a mechanic's lien and made it our shop car. The poor thing was stolen right before it came to the shop. It is now our pride and joy at Specialty-Z." As tuner raw material, one different element of this Z32 is its four-speed automatic transmission. While plenty Zs left Nissan with slush-shifters aboard, enthusiasts have concentrated on the manual equipped cars because, well, enthusiasts like to shift. But an automatic is better for drag racing in many ways. That advantage is particularly acute with high-revving turbo machinery, since the automatic's torque converter winds up before a launch, releasing its accumulated twist in one hard, sudden burst. While Specialty-Z has touched every piece of the car, the element that matters most is the twisted 3.0-liter VG30DETT V-6 engine. The iron block has six 87.5-millimeter bores (0.5 millimeters over stock) filled with Ross forged pistons on Eagle H-beam connecting rods riding on the stock crank and Clevite 77 bearings. Capping the cylinders are stock heads polished and ported at Specialty-Z, fitted with 1mm oversize ST valves and Jim Wolf Technology (JWT) valve springs that are, in turn, controlled by four JWT 500 race cams with the intake pair spun by the stock cam gears and exhaust pair by JUN adjustable gears. With its 8.5:1 compression ratio, there's nothing particularly radical about this car's basic long block. Except that it's fortified to withstand more abuse. That abuse comes from the intense crush of a wicked turbo system and the addition of nitrous oxide. The heart of all this heartlessness is a pair of JWT Sport 700 Garrett-based ball bearing turbochargers. They heave through the stock wastegate through two Mike Smith-modified Stillen side-mounted intercoolers and the stock intercooler plumbing. The resulting atmospheric crush is fed fuel by Nismo 740cc/min injectors spraying into the stock (but Extrude Hone sanitized) intake manifold. NGK iridium plugs fire it all, a Blitz SBC boost controller keeps the whole thing from exploding, and a Specialty-Z/Fast Intentions three-inch exhaust system handles waste gases. Whomping out 22 pounds of boost, the Specialty-Z Z32 walloped the dyno rollers to the tune of 567 horsepower at 6700 rpm and 459-lb/ft of peak torque at 6300 rpm. Not shabby. But then they turned on the NOS nitrous system and let the nozzles in front of each throttle body spray away. That knocked output on the dyno up to 614 horsepower at 7200 rpm (the effective redline) and torque went to 491 at 6150 rpm. All while slurping premium unleaded from a supplementary fuel pump. 1 | 2 | » | View Full Article By John Pearley Huffman Enjoyed this Post?

Press Release
January 28, 2009
Leslie Getzinger
Statement by Randi Weingarten,
President, American Federation of Teachers,
On the Center for American Progress' Teacher Quality Report
Today, the Center for American Progress released its report "From Qualifications to Results: Promoting Teacher Effectiveness Through Federal Policy."
WASHINGTON—While the Center for American Progress recognizes the important function federal policies can play in helping improve the quality of teaching, its report fails to focus on what it will take to accurately measure teacher effectiveness.
The AFT agrees that the current teacher evaluation process, in which principals randomly drop into classrooms to observe teachers, is not serving anyone well. That is why we have advanced better measures of teacher effectiveness. For example, the AFT has called for investing in meaningful teacher review programs such as peer and assistance review, which relies on accomplished teachers who systematically observe, mentor and counsel new and struggling teachers. Our goal should not be to look for the most politically expedient methods of teacher evaluation. Rather, we must give this issue the thoughtful consideration it deserves, and focus on improving the quality of teaching and learning in our classrooms.
# # # #
The AFT represents more than 1.4 million pre-K through 12th-grade teachers; paraprofessionals and other school-related personnel; higher education faculty and professional staff; federal, state and local government employees; nurses and healthcare workers; and early childhood educators.

Over this decade, life expectancy at State Pension Age will decline for women as their State Pension Age rises. Between 2021 and 2051, life expectancy at State Pension Age is expected to rise gradually for both sexes, because, following a change in the assumptions for future life expectancy in ONS's 2010-based population projections, life expectancy at the relevant ages is now projected to increase at a slightly faster rate than the increases in State Pension Age contained in the Pensions Acts 2007 and 2011.
These projections are for the average person and do not take account of differences in socio-economic class or location. The latest estimates for England and Wales show a gap of over three years in period life expectancy at age 65 between the highest and lowest classes in the National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SEC). Within the UK, period life expectancy at age 65 is highest in England and lowest in Scotland.
A related question is whether people will be able to enjoy their retirement in good health. In 2008, the latest year for which figures are available, UK men at age 65 had 9.9 years of healthy life expectancy, while UK women at age 65 had 11.5 years of healthy life expectancy.
Source: Office for National Statistics
Historic figures are based on ONS population estimates. Projections relate to the ONS's 2010-based principal population projections.
The period method of calculating life expectancy applies mortality rates based only on deaths in the year in question. The cohort method of calculating life expectancy uses mortality rates that prevail as the type of person in question ages. This requires the estimation of future mortality rates from the 2010-based national population projections as well as the observation of past rates.
The figures for healthy life expectancy at age 65 in 2008 are based on a three year moving average plotted on the central year; therefore the 2008 figures use data from 2007 to 2009.
Details of the policy governing the release of new data are available by visiting www.statisticsauthority.gov.uk/assessment/code-of-practice/index.html or from the Media Relations Office email: email@example.com
These National Statistics are produced to high professional standards and released according to the arrangements approved by the UK Statistics Authority.

Quality Knows No Boundaries ...
Mascot Truck Parts, a Meritor brand, leverages
product and customer knowledge to provide superior remanufactured products and
service to the transportation industry. With access to Meritor's strengths in
engineering design, technical resources and distribution, we can remanufacture
all makes and models from any manufacturer.
Mascot transmissions (automatic and manual),
differentials, steering gears and pumps go through a rigorous teardown, cleaning
and inspection process that looks at each individual part in the assembly and
examines it for flaws, wear indicators and stress.
All synchros, bearings, seals, gaskets, hoses and
valves are replaced. Every gear is carefully examined and if worn or damaged is
replaced with a new part. Then each unit is reassembled, bench tested and
verified to exacting specifications in our remanufacturing facility. Because we
don't want you "testing" parts on the road. We run quality checks on 100% of our
remanufactured products. That's why our process is ISO 9001:2008 certified, and
it's the reason all Mascot remanufactured parts come with an Unlimited-Mileage
warranty for 1 to 3 Years that is valid in the Continental United States and
Benefits of Remanufacturing
All-makes remanufactured parts allow customers to
streamline inventory, simplify core returns, and provide a product that delivers
the performance, service life, and warranty support of a new component without
the premium cost.
By combining the benefits of dedicated
remanufacturing with an all-makes product line, Mascot is uniquely positioned to
help customers meet their expectations for durability, performance, value, or
quick availability from their replacement parts supplier.
We've Got You Covered
Mascot Truck Parts is committed to supporting our
distribution network and service partners throughout North America. From our
founding (1936 in Toronto) to today, our North American presence has continued
to grow. Currently, we operate remanufacturing facilities in Edmonton,
Mississauga, Moncton, Montreal, and in Plainfield, Indiana, servicing OE dealers
from 29 distribution points across North America.
Plus, our centralized ordering system makes it easy
for you to get exactly what you need. Just call one of our Mascot experts with
your unit ID number and application, and we will make sure you get the component
you need.
One Network, One Team
Mascot Truck Parts is committed to supporting you
through an extensive distribution network with service partners throughout North
America. Mascot truck parts are available exclusively through OEM dealers and
our Warehouse Distributor network in the United States and Canada.
Savings And Support
Mascot remanufactured parts save you money in three
ways. First, Mascot parts eliminate downtime, because it's faster to replace a
critical part than repair it. Second, you are assured outstanding performance
with the confidence that comes from knowing that hidden wear and stress won't
cause subsequent breakdowns. Third, in the unlikely event of a warranty issue,
it will be handled quickly by a Mascot representative.

The 2013 Summer Reading Program has come to an end, and it has been a great success. This year, just like every year, I have had numerous parents come up and ask me for suggestions for a good book for their son. Finding a book for a boy can be difficult because there is a stereotype being passed around that boys don't like to read. As a result of this false generalization, books in the Juvenile and Young Adult sections seem to be geared increasingly towards girls.

Julie Powell on Cooking For One
In a rather revealing article about her separation from her husband, Julie Powell, of the now-retired Julie/Julia Project, and author of the book Julie & Julia: 365 Days, 524 Recipes, 1 Tiny Apartment Kitchen addresses the important topic of cooking for one.
As bloggers slowly ooze into mainstream journalism (Powell has been writing for the New York Times off and on for quite a while), I have to wonder if this revealing style of writing is what newspaper readers want.
Domestic drama aside, "her" recipe (it's actually adapted from Julia Child's Mastering the Art of French Cooking) for Garlic Soup With Poached Eggs sounds delicious.
(The Way We Eat: 'Home' Cooking, New York Times, April 2, 2006)
23 Comments
Um... so, where's the article?
Hello. Where is the article? Is it in the Times?
I read that over the weekend. The recipes look great.
And while it's also great that she highlights cooking for one, it was rather sad. Melancholy is not the invariable state for those of us who often cook a meal for one...
For other, happier stories of cooking for one in NY apartment kitchen, I love Laurie Colwin's "Home Cooking."
Good article. Good recipe. Now I'm craving soup (helps that it's bleakly white gray out here in LA today.)
As for her confessional style of writing, I'm fine with it. Of course, I'm from what was a small Southern town, not anymore sadly, so in same ways this just makes me feel connected to the author in the same way you might with a neighbor.
I appreciate the context; the why behind the food. I like that she emphasizes the connection and reflection that they share in their meals (and wine).
Or I could just be a big ole lug and a sap. Take your pick.
I didn't love the book, but that is neither here nor there.
I read her article in the Times over the weekend. Didn't it say she and her husband have reunited? Or is my memory just that bad?
Yes, she does say they had reunited by the time this article was written.
This nearly moved me to tears; she articulates the loneliness of the solitary foodie so well! I am especially glad that they got back together; I don't hear good news like that very often!
Man....it's so depressing! And why is the recipe for the garlic soup with poached egg serve 6 when the article is about cooking for 1?
That's a lot of leftovers.
Because the intention as stated in the article was to give her some comfort food to ease her solitude across the week.
Thanks for the link. I must have missed this in the mess of Sunday Times that I still have on the coffee table.
I really like that food writing can capture this kind of emotion, but I can't say I'm racing out to try any of these recipes. I think garlic soup will always make me sad now . . . seriously.
great article. i remember those days very well. won't go into details, but it sparked my love for cooking. i would buy the next book just for those words. not depressing as it is poetic imo.
i have so many responses to this article that i feel compelled to respond to it at some length (sorry, all!).
For one thing, this is not really an article about eating for one. Rather, this is about feeding yourself when you are recently alone, when the norm to you is not living and being by yourself, when, in fact, you are bereft.
for the bulk of a decade, although i've had lovers, dear friends, even serious beaus, I've lived by myself and, subsequently, cooked and eaten dinner alone at least three times a week . there are negative aspects to this, of course--it annoys me at times that i don't have an audience for a triumph of a meal, of course; it annoys to have to cook AND clean after each meal; it can get lonely--but there are also positive aspects. I can read during a meal--my favorite activity since i was a child. i can experiment without shame. i can be baroque in a way that someone else might not tolerate. i don't have to be a codependent cook, if that make any sense.
So Julie's article didn't really focus on the experience of a true solitary cook, but that's fine in and of itself. She didn't project it as that kind of piece. But although perhaps one of these days the TImes (and everyone else) will truly grasp that not every modern person best lives with another person, as of now a sadsack story about eating by yourself is par for the course and thus kind of grating. Some of us embrace, or at least, accept our status as single enough so that we can cook for ourselves wihtout viewing it as a (you should pardon the expression AND pun) sloppy second.
that said, i wasn't a huge fan of this piece for another reason: It really was too bloggy for the Times. They Grey Lady is having an identity crisis in its feature-y sections precisely because it does not know how to respond to the New Media. Personal essays are fine for the TImes, but not when the person doesn't take us on a journey that is, in some small way, completed. That's best for online diaries, and the point is that is a different medium entirely.(How stilted and formal are Frank Bruni's blog meanderings, for example? He is a polisher, not a blogger, and o lordy does it show.)Here what Julie is doing--no matter how well she conveys it--is wallowing in soup. And so as readers we are left to drown. In garlic and poached egg, no less. What a way to go.
lisa - agree with your comments. Cooking for one isn't a problem that needs sympathy - just halve the ingredients of a recipe and cook yerself a well balanced meal.
bravo lisa!
i was indifferent to the article, as well as the soup recipe. as much as amanda hesser could grate, i appreciated her "cooking for mr. latte" vignettes more. there was more of a storyline, and the food was integrated better into the emotional meat of the piece. anyway, i don't mean to workshop the article, but just that i agree with lisa that it was too bloggy and not resolved enough.
Now, with The Kitchen, you have an audience for a triumph of a meal. With all of us on your side, you are never cooking for one.
Ok. I made the soup last night and it needs more salt, otherwise it's pretty good. In retrospect, I don't really want to read about Julie's separation from her husband in the cooking section of the NYT. I've been single for years and it's not such a melodrama to cook for one.
I'm with you lisa. Cooking for others has its own rewards but cooking for oneself is wonderful as well. M.F.K. Fisher writes in The Gastronomic Me that gastronomic perfection can be achieved in several combinations, including "one person dining along usually upon a couch or a hill side." Now that spring has arrived, I'm looking forward to cooking my favorite solo meal: Asparagus browned in butter and topped with fried egg and shavings of parmesan. I eat this from the pan and sop up the yolk with a slice of good bread. Heaven.
cooking for self is fine, but i think she was mourning the loss of a captive audience and the sharing of love. cooking is a social thing for me. my friends, old neighbors and co workers can tell you, i'm constantly asking them to try something and critique it. i saw where the writer was coming from. this every day act of cooking was about love. food was just a tool.
but yeah i see both sides of the coin.
dani--i agree (and acknowledged beforee, i think) that Julie is mourning the loss of another rather than merely writing about cooking for self. i had more issues with the placement of that piece in the times mag food section, especially as the only representative of cooking for self in a while, than with the piece itself. that said, i'm with you, stacey; i think that MFK Fisher was where it was at in terms of writing about this topic well. and thanks to all of us for the audience we provide each other for our triumphs and confusions in the kitchen. this is such a nice site.
I wonder if I'm the only one who's perplexed & offended by mention in the article of "girly music"..

"We personalized the picture with a shot of the bride and groom outdoors in a forest. The quality of printing was great and captured details in the background such as tree branches and leaves. I ordered the gold bottom and it came out great! I felt the gold looks perfect for us since we're having a winter wedding. Such a beautiful postcard and the back was just the right amount of space. Highly recommend these!"
"I absolutely loved the design of this save the date! My picture turned out amazing with this design. My designer was extremely friendly and helpful! I was very pleased over all!!"
"I was pleasantly surprised by how well the glitter printed. We received an outstanding number of compliments from our guests on the quality and sharpness of our picture."
"My fiance and I ordered these Save the Dates for our October wedding and were both very pleased with the quality of the card stock as well as the clarity of the picture we chose. The font on the back was printed clearly as well. We loved them!"
"Wedding Paper Divas blew my mind with my postcard save the dates. I was so pleased at the quality and price. I have just recently ordered my invites, thank you cards, and RSVP cards because I am so pleased with how everything was handled. My requests were handled quickly and the proofs were updated for my review. I must say the handwritten card from Lindsay, our editor, was the best part of all. Thank you for all you do!"

New for 2012, the Flexcell Cocona range is a real advance in mattress technology.
Cocona is a natural material made from coconut fibres, which regulates your body temperature by wicking away moisture from the skin much more efficiently than any other fabric, keeping you cool, and allowing you to drift into deep sleep more readily.

24" Pre-Lit Yuletide Christmas Wreath 14 14
great customer service re product replacement Purchased three on clearance....two worked...one didn't. ....cs people were great and had replacement out to me pronto! February 7, 2014
Great size, looks bigger than I expected I ordered this after Christmas, so I didn't get a chance to hang it. I plugged it in and it looks great. Will add a bow and a few ornaments next year and hang it on my front door. All these years I have bought a real wreath, but you really can't tell the difference unless your right on top of it. Thank you, love my wreath. C. Garceau February 1, 2014
24" Pre-Lit Yuletide Wreath The first day the wreath performed beautifully. The lights were all bright and the timer worked perfectly. The second day none of the white lights were lit. The third day none of the green lights were lit. I threw the wreath in the recycling trash can. January 1, 2014
Very disappointed!! At first, I thought this product was great because the overall appearance is actually pretty. I bought 3 strands of garland, 1 wreath and 2 swags. The batteries run out after two days of use and really are only fully lit for the first night. The timer on them has two choices: 1- on/off OR 2- 18 hr on with 6 off. If you want to turn them on and off yourself, you can preserve the battery life. However, since we wanted the convenience of utilizing the timer, these didn't work for us since the batteries had to be changed out so frequently!! Very disappointing!! December 29, 2013

Can these take Lithium batteries?
In the cold the lights on my wreath will fade over the 6 hours that it is on. I'd like to try lithium batteries as they can take the cold but am not sure if they are appropriate for this Yuletide Christmas wreath
