Sterling silver, also called fine silver, is a beautifully lustrous cool-toned precious metal favored in fine jewelry among other products. The most reflective of all metals (excluding mercury), sterling silver looks stunning by itself and brings out the best hues in an array of colorful gemstones.
Sterling silver can be polished to a higher sheen than platinum. In fact, Ag, the chemical symbol for silver, comes from a word that means "white and shining." The surface of silver can boast that shiny, polished appearance, or can be brushed, satin, matte, sandblasted, antiqued or oxidized (chemically blackened).
In order to be called sterling silver, a metal must be made up of a minimum of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% alloy (meaning other metals), including but not limited to copper and nickel. The alloy is added to pure silver to make the metal more durable, tougher and harder. Sterling silver is designated a fineness of "925." Pieces with sterling silver may be marked "sterling."
Finishes on Sterling Silver
Finishing, or plating, is a common treatment with sterling silver. Popular types of plating are rhodium plating, gold plating and anti-tarnish plating. Plating is used to extend the life and sheen of the jewelry. After sizing or buffing a piece of jewelry with a machine, it must be re-plated to restore the finish.
Caring for Sterling Silver
Sterling silver becomes tarnished as the result of a natural chemical process that occurs when sterling silver is exposed to chemicals in the air, rubber, wool and latex. Humidity also plays a role in accelerating tarnishing. It's easy to keep your sterling silver sparkling, though, by taking a few steps to prevent tarnish and other wear and tear.
Named from the French word for lemon, "citron," citrine is a variety of quartz available in a range of golden hues from lemon, to straw, to sun yellow, to deep gold, to orange, brown and deep red. Darker colors are more highly valued, including the medium golden-orange and dark-sherry colors, sometimes called Madeira citrines after the color of the wine.
Citrine crystals can form together with amethyst to form ametrine, or with smoky quartz to form bicolored quartz. Citrine is generally less expensive than amethyst, and is also available in a wide range of calibrated sizes and shapes, including very large sizes. Considered an alternative to topaz as the birthstone for November, it is also thought to be the traditional gift for couples celebrating their 13th and 17th wedding anniversaries. Citrine ranks a 7.0 on the Mohs Scale, and because of this durability, it is ideal for jewelry wear.
Almost all citrine on the market is heat-treated amethyst, and generally starts life as either smoky quartz or amethyst geodes. Heat treatments first turn them clear and then give them a permanent color ranging from yellow to brownish-red. In some amethyst deposits, the amethyst has been partially or fully changed to brown citrine by natural means of heating, thereby transforming it into citrine. Natural citrine is pale yellow to orange, and occurs in much lighter hues than the heat-treated material. Citrines whose colors have been produced by artificial means tend to have much more of an orange or reddish caste than those found in nature. Since most citrine was originally amethyst that was heated to turn its color to gold, both citrine and amethyst jewelry should be kept away from prolonged exposure to strong light or heat.
Most citrine is mined in Brazil, but almost all of the Brazilian material is heat-treated amethyst. Supplies are most plentiful in the Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul, particularly from the Serra Mine. The Ira' Mine also produces large quantities of the gem. Citrine can also be found in the Ural Mountains of Russia, in Dauphine, France, and in Madagascar.
In ancient times, citrine was carried as a protection against snake venom and evil thoughts. It was thought to give calmness and mental balance to its wearer. Throughout history, people have confused citrine for topaz. Many citrines were sold as topaz and thus thought to carry the same qualities, such as knowledge and beauty. Today, citrine symbolizes truth and integrity, and is believed to promote creativity and personal clarity.
Marcasite, a name derived from the Arabic word for pyrite, is the term applied to small polished and faceted stones inlayed in sterling silver. Their color is usually described is being pale bronze, looking rather gray with a greenish tint. A multi-colored tarnish may exist as a result of oxidation. With a metallic luster and opaque crystals, marcasite ranks 6.0-6.5 on the Mohs Scale. Occurrences are worldwide, especially in the United States, Mexico, France, Peru, China and Russia.

Oklahoma is the only Big 12 team that hasn't permitted a 300-yard QB in 2012. WVU QB Geno Smith enters this week's game
ranked third in the nation in passing (337.9 ypg). Last week, Baylor entered its contest vs. OU leading the nation in
passing (392.1 ypg) and was held to a season-low 172 passing yards by the Sooners.
Additionally, no player has caught more than six passes in a single contest vs. the OU defense this season. Mountaineers WR Tavon
Austin (10.7) leads the NCAA in receptions per game, while WR Stedman Bailey (8.3 per game) ranks fi fth.
Oklahoma's win vs. Baylor was the 146th of head coach Bob Stoops' career, passing Bud Wilkinson for second on the OU victory list behind Barry Switzer (157). Along with Bennie Owen (122), OU is the only school to have four coaches with 100+ wins.
West Virginia's defensive line play hasn't gotten nearly the attention it deserves. The four-man rotation of Shaq Rowell, Kyle Rose, Jorege Wright and Will Clarke have combined for 75 tackles, and have limited opponents to just 3.4 yards per carry. Nine of those tackles have come behind the line of scrimmage.
Oklahoma is sixth in the nation in third down conversions. Out of 119 chances, the Sooners have turned 62 third downs into first downs for a success rate of 52%.
Oklahoma has attempted six fourth down conversions all year, succeeding on four. West Virginia tried more than that in the last game alone, posting a 4-7 mark against Oklahoma State. For the season, WVU is 15-29 on fourth down.
WVU running back Andrew Buie has 646 rushing yards through nine games. Two hundred seven of those, or 32%) came in one game vs. Texas. That mirrors Dustin Garrison's 2011 season, when 291 of his 742 yards (39%) came against Bowling Green.
Oklahoma backup quarterback Blake Bell highlights the "Belldozer" formation, in which he often converts short yardage situations into first downs or touchdowns. His effectiveness (10 rushing TDs), along with excellent placekicker Michael Hunnicut (10-11 FG), has Oklahoma fifth in the nation in red zone scoring percentage at 93.3%. The Sooners have turned 45 chances inside the 20 into 33 touchdowns and nine field goals, missing out on just three opportunities.

The Government Accountability Office expects the Navy to respond to bid protests against its Next Generation Enterprise Network award to Hewlett-Packard Co. by Aug. 14.
Harris Corp. and Computer Sciences Corp., the two protesters of the $3.5 billion NGEN contract, will then have 10 days to respond to the Navy's response.
After that a hearing could be held, or not, a GAO official told me. The deadline for GAO's decision is Oct. 23.
The grounds for the protest are still murky but because it is a lowest price, technically acceptable contract, the most likely argument is that the price HP bid was too risky to meet the requirements.
But a resolution could come before Oct. 23 for several reasons:
I think we are into this fight until the end.
In a bit of somewhat related news, MilitaryTimes.com has a story this week about the firing of NGEN program manager Capt. Shawn Hendricks. He was having an affair with a subordinate, who was an employee of Booz Allen Hamilton.
Navy Times obtained the report on the investigation of Hendricks via a Freedom of Information Act request.
In this age of Anthony Weiner and sexting, Hendricks' story of a fall from grace is rather old fashioned; he had a troubled marriage, and he fell in love with someone else.
Of course, the affair was with a subordinate and he maintained that the relationship between the two was innocent, something the inspector general called a "charade." Those are huge no-no's in the military, and probably would have gotten him fired in the corporate world, as well.
Hendricks was removed from his role as NGEN program manager just days before the award to HP was announced. The IG found no evidence that the relationship affected the award decision.

Navy has been very quiet about NGEN. Surely the recent large scale hack of NMCI has them in remorse over their decision with HP. If this is the service they get with COSC, NGEN should be very interesting! http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702304526204579101602356751772

Last edited by bluecheese; 04-24-2012 at 03:02 PM. Reason: wrong date
do you know when will they announce them cuz i too want to booked a hotel in advance
Book one of each weekend in April and cancel the others when it's announced. You should already be able to book for the 12-14 weekend.
I think they'll announce in early June.
Friday: Aloe Blacc, ZZ Ward, Caravan Palace, MS MR, Bastille, OutKast, Grouplove, Kate Nash, HAIM, Jagwar Ma, Tom Odell, Neko Case
Saturday: Chvrches, Lorde, ,Foxygen, The Naked and Famous, Pharrell Williams, Muse, Empire of the Sun, Bombay Bicycle Club, Pet Shop Boys, Saints of Valory, Temples
Sunday: Arcade Fire, Lana Del Rey, Frank Turner, John Newman, J Roddy Walston and the Business, Superchunk, STRFKR, Neutral Milk Hotel
I'd be shocked if those weren't the dates. Stagecoach has been last wkd in April last three years.
2014 might be the streak-breaker as Easter is 4/20 and I don't think there's ever been an event on Easter sunday. Big 4 was Easter wkd yet only Saturday--but that's all irrelevant for next year.
Houses are already being snapped up. A lot of owners have multiple inquiries that began as soon as wkd 2 ended or they're booked with returning renters. Those who wait until dates are formally announced will be screwed. It'll be less of an issue with hotels.

with it being two weekends, it just seems easier to narrow dates down. i doubt they'd ever go into may or the first week of april.
Well Easter is in March next year so that could open up the entire month of April.
You know, but that's valid because if we are all gonna die anyway shouldn't we be enjoying ourselves now? You know, I'd like to quit thinking of the present, like right now, as some minor insignificant preamble to something else.
It's that tad bit of Crazy that keeps me Sane...
I really hope those are the dates.
Coachella being on 4/20 makes it sooo dope. As lame as that sounds.
stoner heaven again it seems
I am going with 12-13-14. I booked a room a week after I got home last year and only paid a little over 300 for a hotel in Cathedral City
It would also suck for all of the employees in the sponsored tents and actually working for GV who want to be with their families. I imagine there has to be some people that just look at Coachella as another day at the office basically
Ugh hotel rates are already crazy or sold out for several hotels in La Quinta and Palm Desert for what will most likely be weekend one. For now I booked a room in Palm Springs that is a fairly close walk to the shuttle stop.

There is nothing less romantic than financial problems.
If you're among the many couples struggling during these tough economic times, instead of dropping a few hundred dollars this Valentine's Day on candy, jewelry and fancy dinners, consider sitting down with your loved one to discuss your finances.
Ross Levin, a certified financial planner and president of Accredited Investors says in a difficult economic environment such as this, people in a relationship can react differently to their financial circumstance and communication can become very strained. In order to avoid tension, it is important to step back and ask each other about where your finances are now and what are your future objectives?
"For most people not much has actually changed.," says Levin. "They didn't know how much their retirement would be ten years ago and they still don't."
Love-Hate Investment Debate
Despite that, however, people often panic, and make unnecessary changes that Levin says "act against their own self interest."
One such mistake is becoming too conservative with their asset allocation too quickly.
Elisabeth Plax, a certified financial planner and president of Plax & Associates Financial Service, says it is often the case in volatile markets that one person may want to sell everything and go completely into cash, while the other partner may want to ride out the turmoil.
While moving to cash may seem like a flight to safety, it is not a good solution as it can make it difficult for you to generate the returns you need and will prevent you from taking advantage of a recovery once it comes.
The trick, she says, is to compromise by incorporating a middle-ground investment strategy that moves some money to more conservative investments such as fixed income while maintaining enough in equities so you can take advantage of a recovery.
Asset allocation and balanced funds are good options that offer a high level of diversification tailored to many different risk tolerances, she says, as are some long-short funds, which can offer more protection on the downside Saul Simon, a certified financial planner and private wealth adviser with Simon Financial Group, says another major mistake people often make during these times is to stop investing in their 401(K) retirement plan.
In fact, he says, there is at least one good reason to keep investing.
"If you are adding money to these accounts, there is major dollar-cost averaging taking place," he says, which entails investing in small, regular increments. With price of many securities so depressed, now is actually an opportune time to do this.
Plax agrees that halting these contributions is a big mistake that too many people make.
"Don't stop contributions to your 401(k)s," she says. "Yes, they will go through a horrendously volatile cycle but in a few years from now you will be happy to have bought shares at such low prices," adding it is important to keep you eye on the long term and don't give up on stocks because you need the performance.
While not making unnecessary changes to your portfolio is half the battle, advisors say there are a few proactive steps that you can also take, which may be able to help your save a few dimes if money is getting tight.
Savings At Home
According to Levin, one option to consider is refinancing your home. However, you had better do your homework first as this isn't for everyone.
Currently, homeowners can get some very attractive rates on conforming loans—which are those valued at $417,000 or less. Depending on your current rate, refinancing can save you a lot on your interest payments.
If you decide to refinance and you do not plan to be in your home a long time, you may want to do a zero cost refinance, which does not require you to pay closing costs. Instead those costs are wrapped into the interest rate. So you pay a little higher interest rate but no immediate costs associated with the refinance, which is good for the short term.
If you do plan on staying for awhile and you have the money to pay the upfront costs, that is a better option as you will have a lower interest rate over the long haul. You may find it attractive to go from a 30-year to a 15-year loan, which carries a lower rate bur raises the size of your monthly principal payment.
Levin says rates right now are attractive on both fixed rate and adjustable loans, though "we think in the fixed-rate the rates are attractive enough that it makes sense to go with that."
He adds that when it comes to jumbo loans, refinancing options are slim as rates haven't yet come down as much, though he says "if you know you won't be in the house very long, there is a nicer spread on adjustable loans, which might make sense.
Also, he says, if you have strong credit another option to free some cash may be to do a home equity line, where you may be able to get some really low rates. There is a risk if interest rates move higher but in the meantime you can save a lot of money, he says.
Insurance And Retirement
Another area you may be able to find some cost savings is with deductibles – such as on your property insurance.
If you are able to raise your deductible—the sum that you must pay before your insurance company will pay out—it can save you a lot of money on your premium.
The question, Levin says, you have to discuss is "how high of a deductible are you willing to go."
For couples that are not experiencing financial troubles but are looking to take advantage of the current environment, now may be a good time to think about transferring some of your wealth.
According to Simon, "interest rates are so low and assets have been depressed from a wealth transfer planning perspective." As a result you can gift assets at a discounted value to their actual economic value.
In addition, Plax says that now is also the perfect time to consider rolling over your traditional IRA to a Roth IRA. One of the biggest differences between a traditional IRA and a Roth IRA is that with a traditional IRA your contributions are made on a pre-tax basis, and will continue to grow tax-free until withdrawn. Meanwhile with a Roth IRAs, contributions are not tax deductible, however when the money is withdrawn during retirement, they are tax-free.
Because the assets in the IRA are so low and you can transfer them in-kind to the Roth IRA so you are paying taxes on a smaller value and these assets will now start growing again in the Roth and come out tax free.
This can be a good idea for people who have sufficient disposable dollars to pay for the taxes, as you need to be able to pay the taxes from other kinds of savings. However, she says if you are considering doing this you need to determine whether this will put you into another tax bracket, which may not make it worthwhile. In this case, you may want to consider rolling over assets in increments. The IRA switchover is also subject to an income cap, so make sure you qualify.
While tough economic times can put a lot of strain on relationships, a little planning and a lot of communication can help ensure love is not lost.

The first season of the Wrighteous Jazz Fest swings to a close this Saturday evening at the Wright Opera House, with an appearance by saxophonist-cum-vocalist Max Wagner and his trio. Wagner lives on the Front Range. He describes himself as an "unrepentant" Estes Park resident (he grew up there), and is the founder of the Estes Park Jazz Festival, now in its 23rd year. At the Festival, he has hosted, and jammed with, some of the greats. Among them: pianist Les McCann, saxophonist Don Braden, and jazz vocalists Marlena Shaw and Roberta Gambarini. "It's a party," Wagner said.
He's also appeared on more than 50 albums, including his own most recent, This Can't Be Love, where he pays musical tribute to both Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn, in "Isfahan," and Dizzy Gillespie ("Night in Tunisia"). To Ouray, a place he has visited but never played before, Wagner will bring bassist Mark Simon and pianist Eric Gunnison. If Gunnison's name rings a bell with aficionados, it's because he was the great jazz singer Carmen McRae's musical director and accompanist for years (he played with her on the inspired "McRae Sings Monk"). Wagner's new album is due out soon, and on it is one of McRae's standards, a poignant rumination based on, of all things, the famous first line, "April is the cruelest month," from T.S. Eliot's "The Wasteland."
…All alone, the party is over
Old Man Winter was a gracious host
But when you keep praying
For snow to hide the clover
Spring can really hang you up the most.
The title of the song is also its last line, and Carmen McRae's delivery makes every word emotional and memorable. Her birthday would have been just last week. You have to wonder: what does her former accompanist think about when he plays it, particularly this time of year? The concert is at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $15, available online at thewrightoperahouse.org.
Student Art Show in Montrose
The Montrose County School District hosts its annual Art Show beginning next Monday, April 22. The show runs for two weeks. It's a huge exhibit: over 1,000 pieces of art, in everything from painting and drawing to photography, ceramics and mixed media, will be on display. Every school from the county will be represented, and every grade. This year, for the first time, prizes will be given for two and three-dimensional works, as well as a People's Choice Award.
The Student Art Show used to be a longstanding Montrose County tradition, but the tradition died. Five years ago, a group of art teachers decided to revive it. "We were kind of nomads in the beginning, looking for space" to hold the event in, said Montrose High School teacher Ann-Marie Fleming. The exhibitors settled on a spot on Main Street, next to Around the Corner Gallery. "That first night, there was not a parking spot to be found downtown," Fleming said – the show was that popular. The next year, the exhibit was held at the Ute Indian Museum, where the museum director waived the entrance fee for the two weeks the show was up, so patrons could see the rest of the museum for free. "Many people told me they'd never been to the Ute Museum before," Fleming said. "That was exactly what I was hoping for, and why I'm glad we had the show out in the community, instead of in a school building." Today, the show seems to have found a permanent perch at the Region 10 Enterprise Center (the executive who recruited them is a painter and an arts lover). Each school gets a wing of the Center in which to display their works on paper, and ceramics (the way they often seem to be at art exhibits) are grouped in the middle. The show is such a success, and the place so bustling, "people end up having to walk through single file" down the Center's corridors, Fleming said. "We're very lucky," she went on. "A lot of schools in larger cities have had their art programs compromised as a result of the poor economy, but not here. We've had no cutbacks." She calls the creative cross-pollination between school and community "a wonderful collaboration." The art show is open Monday-Friday each week, from 9 a.m.-5 p.m.
In Grand Junction: The Glass Menagerie
The Colorado Mesa University theatre department ends it season this weekend with Tennessee Williams' The Glass Menagerie, considered by many to be Wililams' best play. It is also almost certainly at least partially autobiographical, and concerns a young man, Tom (Williams' real first name), and his search for identity. It was "a nice luxury" to be able to cast the play, said its director, Mo LaMee, who recently arrived at CMU from his tenure as artistic director at a theatre in Creede. "I could have cast this a couple times over," given the depth of talent at CMU, he added. "It has worked out quite beautifully."
In the play, Tom and his sister, Laura, both feel stifled. She retreats into a world of her glass figurines (the "menagerie" of the title), and he has to leave home to get free. "The play is about what's required for autonomy," LaMee reflected. "I think this happens for every artist." In order to come into your own, you need to break out of something, he said. "It's very painful, but necessary." The Glass Menagerie runs from April 18-20. Showtime is 7:30 p.m.

|As energy-saver, clothesline makes a comeback
A 'Right to Dry' movement is growing, with some states introducing legislation to override clothesline bans.
By Caitlin Carpenter | Contributor to The Christian Science Monitor
August 24, 2007
It started out innocently enough. Concerned about global warming and her family's energy consumption, Michelle Baker wanted to hang her wash outside. She scoured stores for a clothesline durable enough to withstand Vermont winters and classy enough for her Waterbury backyard. She came back empty-handed every time.
So Ms. Baker and her husband made their own: a few lines of pristine white rope hung between two Vermont cedar poles. Soon, friends and neighbors were enviously asking where they got it. Born of enterprise, enthusiasm, and wet shirts flapping in the breeze, the Vermont Clothesline Co. debuted in April.
And just in time, as a national clothesline – or "Right to Dry" – movement escalates. In fact, Vermont is the latest state to introduce a bill that would override clothesline bans, which are often instituted by community associations loath to air laundry even when it's clean. Now, clothesline restrictions may be headed the way of bans on parking pickup trucks in front of homes, or growing grass too long – all vestiges of trim and tidy hopes that may not fit with the renewed emphasis on going green.

CAE Wins Two Full-flight Simulator and Training Device Orders
Orders and major update contracts valued at C$46 million.
MONTREAL , Jan. 24 /PRNewswire/ - (NYSE: CGT; TSX: CAE) - CAE has signed contracts to design and manufacture two full-flight simulators (FFS) along with a suite of CAE Simfinity(TM) training devices, and provide a range of major simulator updates and services. The contracts are with Qantas, Hainan Airlines, Airbus, Atlas Air, Singapore Airlines and Virgin Blue. They are valued at C$46 million at list prices and bring the total FFS sales that CAE has announced so far in fiscal 2008 to 31.
Two full-flight simulators
Qantas has ordered a CAE 5000 Series Boeing 737NG simulator and a CAE Simfinity Boeing 737NG Integrated Procedures Trainer (IPT). The simulator will be delivered to the Qantas training centre in Melbourne , Victoria, Australia in spring 2008.
"The CAE 5000 Series fulfills market demands for lower acquisition costs, reduced lifecycle costs and faster delivery times," said Marc Parent , CAE's Group President, Simulation Products and Military Training & Services. "Qantas has a well-earned reputation as a premier airline training organization so we are delighted to add them to our list of customers for the new CAE 5000 Series."
Hainan Airlines, China's fourth largest carrier, will receive a CAE 7000 Series Embraer 190 simulator along with a suite of CAE Simfinity training devices. The simulator will be delivered in 2008 to the Hainan Airlines training centre in Sanya, the southernmost city in the Hainan province. CAE will also provide a CAE Simfinity IPT and CAE Simfinity Virtual Simulators (VSIMs). In 2007, CAE signed a contract to provide Hainan Airlines with an Embraer 145 FFS.
Visual system for A350 engineering development simulator
Airbus has ordered the CAE Tropos(TM)-6000 visual system for an Airbus A350 engineering development simulator.
"We are pleased that Airbus has selected CAE visual system technology to assist in the concept design, test, and validation phases of the new A350 aircraft development program," said Parent.
The CAE Tropos-6000 visual system combines CAE's proven software with the latest commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) graphics technologies to deliver unprecedented visual realism. The specially designed CAE Tropos-6000 system for Airbus is mounted on a moveable platform to allow Airbus engineers maximum flexibility to use the visual system during aircraft design and evaluation. The CAE Tropos-6000 visual system will be moved between various cockpit configurations of the Airbus A350 aircraft, which is currently in development.
Update and maintenance services
CAE has signed a contract with Atlas Air, the world's largest operator of Boeing 747 freighter aircraft, to perform major update services to a Boeing 747-400 FFS. The update will feature the CAE Tropos-6000 visual system and liquid crystal on silicon (LCoS) projectors, as well as give Atlas Air the option to further upgrade the simulator to the new Boeing 747-8 aircraft configuration. The extensive scope of the update requires CAE to first relocate the simulator to its Montreal manufacturing facility, following which it will be delivered to Atlas Air's training centre in Miami , Florida by late 2008. In addition, CAE will provide Atlas Air with a new CAE Simfinity IPT, convertible to both the Boeing 747-400 and 747-8.
CAE will update two CAE-built FFSs for Singapore Airlines - an Airbus A340 and Boeing 777 - with CAE's next-generation visual solution, including the CAE Tropos-6000 visual system and LCoS projectors. In addition, CAE will upgrade the A340 FFS to include an Airbus A330 configuration, allowing the simulator to be convertible to both the A330 and A340 aircraft platforms.
CAE has also signed a three-year contract with Virgin Blue to provide the airline with maintenance and support services.

The Associated Press
SHREWSBURY, Vt. — Lucas Jackson and Maeve Mangine shifted plans for a farm centered on a goat dairy after taking a workshop in growing shiitake mushrooms. All it took was logs from their land, mushroom spawn and their labor.

The Associated Press
Now they're selling the spongy rich mushrooms to several Vermont restaurants and a food cooperative and through a community supported agriculture farm. This season, they expect to produce about 500 pounds of mushrooms, which retail for as much as $16 a pound.
The couple's Tangled Roots Farm in Shrewsbury is one of about 20 farms chosen in Vermont and New York as research sites under a $116,000 U.S. Department of Agriculture grant provided to the University of Vermont Extension's Center for Sustainable Agriculture and Cornell University Cooperative Extension in 2010.
A UVM-Cornell study conducted over the last three years under the grant has found that growing mushrooms outdoors can be profitable to farmers with at least 500 logs, bringing in $11,190 in gross income at $16 a pound, and that demand is outstripping supply.
Next month, the universities plan to complete a guide for growing shiitake mushrooms in the Northeast.
Jackson, 27, and Mangine, 28, were among 500 to 600 people who attended a series of workshops held by the universities to teach Northeast farmers how to grow shiitakes while using resources from managing or thinning their land and forests.
Like other Northeast farmers, they're limited by the cold, unlike larger-scale operations in Pennsylvania where mushrooms are grown indoors on compressed sawdust logs in controlled environments. But what they do have going for them is little, if any, overhead: the hardwood logs, a shady spot in the woods, water from a spring up the hill and a refrigerator to store the freshly harvested shiitakes.
"The average temperature needs to be above 40-ish, so we're pretty limited in our outdoor fruiting season in Vermont and that's kind of the nature of what we're doing," said Mangine, who works as a school administrator. "But growing them outside like this is really nice because we really have very few inputs."
The Tangled Roots Farm, one of the larger in Vermont, has grown to 500 logs. Each log produces about half a pound of mushrooms twice a season.
Through the USDA grant, the farm received shiitake spawn, which is inserted into holes drilled into the roughly 3-foot logs.
The holes are sealed with wax and the logs sit for a year in stacks while the spawn colonizes the wood.
A year later, farmers shock the logs by immersing them in a tub of water, which stimulates them to grow shiitakes. The logs are then removed from the water and stacked, and the shitakes grow within a week to 10 days.
A fresh shiitake torn off one of their sugar maple logs is both light and meaty, with a rich nutty flavor featuring a hint of garlic.
"They've just got a load of different flavors for different people," Jackson said.
And nutritional benefits to boot. Mushrooms provide nutrients such as potassium, Vitamin D, selenium and riboflavin.
Demand for mushrooms is inching up, said Laura Phelps, president of the American Mushroom Institute, a trade organization representing indoor mushroom growers.
Per capita consumption is about 4 pounds per person per year now in the U.S., up from 3.6 pounds two years ago and 1.9 pounds in 1975, she said.
Shiitakes are just a tiny fraction of the 896 million pounds of fungi produced in the U.S. from 2012 to 2013. The U.S. crop is mostly Agaricus mushrooms, such as the common white button mushrooms and brown mushrooms, including portobello and cremini varieties, which are commonly grown indoors.

the translation of the Hebrew word Shamir in (Ezekiel 3:9) and Zech 7:12 In (Jeremiah 17:1) it is translated "diamond." In these three passages the word is the representative of some stone of excessive hardness, and is used metaphorically. It is very probable that by Shamir is intended emery, a variety of corundum, a mineral inferior, only to the diamond in hardness.

What is START?*
- START (Safety Trial for Rheumatoid Arthritis with REMICADE® Therapy)1
- A 54-week, randomized, multicenter, double-blind, 3-arm, parallel-group, phase 3 study of the safety of REMICADE® in combination with methotrexate (MTX) in subjects with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) (N=1082)
- The study assessed the risk of serious infections following 22 weeks of REMICADE® + MTX therapy
- At Week 22, Groups 1 and 2 combined, with Group 2 being allowed to escalate their dose. This objective of this stage of the study was to further characterize the safety profile of REMICADE® during 1 year in patients with moderately to severely active RA
Serious and sometimes fatal side effects have been reported with REMICADE® (infliximab). Infections due to bacterial, mycobacterial, invasive fungal, viral, or other opportunistic pathogens (e.g., TB, histoplasmosis) have been reported. Lymphoma, including cases of fatal hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma, and other malignancies have been reported, including in children and young adult patients. REMICADE® is contraindicated in patients with severe hypersensitivity reactions to REMICADE® and certain patients with congestive heart failure. Other serious side effects reported include melanoma and Merkel cell carcinoma, hepatitis B reactivation, hepatotoxicity, hematological events, hypersensitivity, neurological events, and lupus-like syndrome. Please see related and other Important Safety Information.
- The recommended dose of REMICADE® is 3 mg/kg given as an intravenous induction regimen 0, 2, and 6 weeks followed by a maintenance regimen of 3 mg/kg every 8 weeks thereafter for the treatment of moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis. The dose may be increased up to 10 mg/kg or given as often as every 4 weeks for patients who have an incomplete response, bearing in mind that the risk of serious infections is increased with higher doses of REMICADE®
- Through Week 54, 7 cases of active TB were reported in South America (n=1) and Europe (n=6); all patients were PPD-negative at baseline according to local guidelines1,2

I'm currently in my second week, beginning 3rd, and so far I love it. I'm noticing little changes already, which is getting me pumped for more. However, I wake at 5:30 AM, and my work out is finished by no later than 7 AM, given that my gym doesn't open till 6. Myoplex has become my breakfast of choice, which takes no time as I use the pre-made ones. So, breakfast at 7, which puts my last meal at 3 PM, baring any meals I eat late due to travel, etc. Take away the 7-8 hours I sleep, and that still leaves quite a bit of time between first and last meals.
Do I need to add a meal, or eat a low fat snack before bed? Changing my workout time isn't really an option, as past 8 or so in the morning it's past impossible in my little local gym, as it's far to crowded to maintain a good BFL rhythm.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
I'd skip the myoplex shake in the morning and consumed a LARGE meal after working out that will hold you until Noon. Then just eat every 3 hours until the end of the day. Your metabolism is still working a ton after working out so eating a big meal will only keep it going. Maybe a schedule like this.
Meal 1- LARGE meal at 8AM
Meal 2- LUNCH - 12PM
Meal 3- Protein shake- 3PM
Meal 4- Dinner- 630PM
Meal 5- Protein Shake- 9PM
Thanks for your response. For clarification, what would you consider to be a large meal, in accordance with BFL guidelines?
Could be anything really....Just going off of a wim...
2 whole eggs, 3 egg whites
1 whole wheat toast with PB
1 piece of fruit.
1 Avocado mixed into the tuna for "Mayo"
1 whole wheat pita wrap
1 piece of fruit
Just mix and match. i'd say make your breakfast the largest meal of the day (calorie wise) and dinner the smallest because you are working out so early. I mean just try something new every week and adjust it until you are seeing the results you want. I use MyFitnessPal APP for computer and Iphone. It tracks everything. If you have it, or get it feel free to add me on there as a friend so you can see my meals. -- DomFruch02 (MFP account name)
This is how I have been doing my meals and it works for me
8:00 - meal 1 -breakfast
10:00- meal 2 snack
12:00 meal 3 lunch
3:00 meal 4 snack
6:00 meal 5 dinner
9:00 meal 6 snack
I usually work out around 4 or 7.
Good luck!!
It is strongly recommended that you have six meals, not five. And spacing them out more then three hours (except when asleep) goes against the program, because it will mess with your metabolism. The key is to feed the fire, on cue, at preset times. Obviously life gets in the way sometimes, but it's doable.
If you're first meal is at 7, this could be a possible mealplan-
7- Meal 1 (Which can be Myoplex- it's made to be a meal replacement, the first meal is fine too. Especially after lifting, the liquid protein is quickly absorbed into your system, giving your muscles that boost they really need).
10- meal 2
1- meal 3
4- meal 4
6- meal 5
9- meal 6
I have mine spread either 2.5 or 3 hours, depending on the day. Hope this helps!
Thanks for everyone for responding. I'm going to shift my meals to 3 hours apart, except for breakfast, and see where that takes me. Thanks again!

Kaw Mission
Kaw Mission is more than just a museum that tells the story of the building that was home and school to 30 Kaw boys from 1851 to 1854; it is a tribute to the Kaw (or Kansa), who gave our state its name. The Kaw lived in the Neosho Valley along the Santa Fe Trail for less than 30 years when, despite an impassioned plea by Chief Allegawaho, the U.S. government removed the Kaw to Indian Territory (now Oklahoma). Learn more about Chief Allegawaho, the Kaw, and their stories when you visit Kaw Mission.

From hot rocks to acupoints: A massage addict's journey
All my life I've been a massage slut.
Instead of pledging fidelity to one practitioner or technique, I've been a total tramp. One day I'd be getting my gear off for a Balinese hot rocker (in Ubud, everybody must get stoned), and the next I'd be baring my Chinese acupoints like no-one's business.
I blame my addiction on once having lived near the massage epicentre of Nimbin where the oils are always essential and the "body work" is usually accompanied by quartz healing feathers powered by reincarnated dolphin vibrations.
One sarong-wearing masseuse here used to insist that I meditate on my past life blockages in her private isolation tank before she'd begin wildly kneading the air slightly above my body. (Her hands-off approach did nothing for my shoulder spasms, but my word the nitrogen, oxygen and argon in her room were chilled out.)
Since then, I've sampled techniques from around the globe. I've had my hair pulled in Korean jjimjilbangs, been slapped and walked on in Turkish bath houses, and was once basted in curry paste beside an Indonesian river.
Now, after all this commitment-phobic massaging around, I've found myself settling down in the most unlikely of places: the weird, Asian-operated, makeshift massage station in the middle of my local shopping centre.
You'd think the complete lack of privacy would not be conducive to relaxation. But I find the white noise of hermetically sealed capitalism oddly soothing and soon forget that I am being pinched and jiggled only centimetres from complete strangers who could – but for some reason don't – stare as they push their trollies past on their way to the $2 jewellery shop.
The full extent of my attachment to this no-frills set-up became clear last weekend when a well-meaning friend gave me a massage gift voucher at an über expensive day spa.
Talk about a disaster. The "therapist" involved was just so annoyingly fussy. When she wasn't fiddling with the tinkly piano music player, she was obsessively moving little towels around to ensure that no more than five square centimetres of my body was nude at any one time.
"How's that pressure?" she asked every second or so. "On par with that exerted by the average dressing gown," would have been the honest answer.
The whole experience was so irritatingly stressful, I had to run straight back to the no-name place to unwind. "Holy shiatsu," I said to my favourite unapologetic pummeller. "I think I've become a massage monogamist."
She just gave me her usual sullen look and began jabbing me in the bum with her elbows.
It was so good to be home.

Don't worry Emma.
Rather than claiming to be a "massage monogamist" I would suggest it is more a situation of actualy discovering that all those expensive and specialty massages do no more for a person than the cheap ones.
The only concern would be re: qualifications and any serious injuries being treated (as opposed to relaxation or muscle tightness).
The majority are full of shit and offer no additional benefit for the additional money paid, so why would you pay the additional money?
The usual answer from people is "because xxxx told me it was wonderfull" or "because it is an 'exclusive' spa" etc.
BTW: I actualy studied a diploma in massage therapies, studying numerous techniques (theoretical and practical) and realisticly, when it came to benefits, there were only 2 that stood out as effective:
Sweedish - (read non-therapeutic, just relaxation); and
Remedial. (Which was at least as effective as a lot of the more 'specialised' massages like Shiatsu etc.)
Richard says:
Yep, a real, satisfying massage must balance along the fine line between pleasure and pain like a tight rope walker. Chinese deep tissue meridian massage is my clear preferences, both to perform and receive, but it is better when done with oil instead of over the cloth like they do in supermarkets. Modesty/body consciousness is not a handicap most massagees suffer from these days anyway.
Peter Thornton says:
I had to re-evaluate the giggly wonderfulness of Rhinestone gurus. Most are feloniously dishonest, delusional and coldly exploit others by using cult-like ways of indoctrination that somehow align the word spiritual with any convenient definition.

Deputies say abandoned van yields shake-and-bake lab
Investigators say they found a shake-and-bake methamphetamine lab Wednesday in an abandoned vehicle found parked last month in the middle of a county road.
Lt. Mike Little of the Carter County Sheriff's Department said the purple Dodge Caravan had been located by residents parked on Rockhouse Road in western Carter County on Oct. 26. The van had been left partially in the road. A property owner where the vehicle had been left requested the van be towed. A tow truck from Tiny's Towing then took the vehicle to its lot in Elizabethton.
Staff at Hyder Used Cars on Big Springs Road, which had a lien on the vehicle, repossessed the vehicle, Little said. Tiny's then took the vehicle to Hyder's property. The staff at the used car lot were unable to enter the vehicle because the van was locked. They obtained a key and entered the van on Wednesday.
Little said they located suspicious items in the van and called the sheriff's department for assistance. A deputy responded and determined it to be a shake-and-bake meth lab.
Little said the lab was found in a black backpack. He said several methamphetamine precursors, items used to cook meth, were also located in the van.

With MetaModel, you use a type-safe SQL-like API for querying any datastore. It is a data access framework providing a common interface for exploration and querying of different types of datastores. It isn't a data mapping framework. Instead, it emphasizes abstraction of metadata and the ability to add data sources at runtime, making MetaModel great for generic data processing applications, but less so for applications modeled around a particular domain.
Redland is a set of C libraries providing a high-level API for the Resource Description Framework (RDF), allowing it to be stored, parsed, serialized, queried, and manipulated. It has an object-based, modular design and comes with detailed reference documentation and examples. Redland supports all RDF vocabularies such as FOAF, RSS 1.0, Dublin Core, DOAP, and OWL, the query languages SPARQL and RDQL, and all RDF syntaxes including Turtle, RDF/XML, RDF/JSON, RSS, Atom, RDFa, and GRDDL.
Rasqal is a C library for querying RDF graphs, supporting the SPARQL, RDQL, and LAQRS languages. It provides APIs for creating a query and parsing query syntax. It features pluggable triple-stores and matching interfaces, query engines for executing the queries, an API for manipulating results as bindings, and multiple ways to format the results to XML, CSV, TSV, and JSON. It uses the Raptor RDF parser to return triples from RDF content, and can alternatively work with the Redland RDF library's persistent triple stores. It is portable across many POSIX systems.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"After stressing about my invitation for a month, I stumbled across this site. It was so simple to find what I wanted, edit it to my liking, and order! I got my order within 5 business days as promised and I couldn't have been happier! The floral detail looks like it was hand painted on each card. Be sure you upgrade to the shimmer paper, you won't be disappointed!"
"Our invites were personalized to match our colours (navy). They turned out amazing and we also customized with a picture on the back as well. The quality of the paper and printing was amazing. Very happy with shipping, as it arrived to Canada very quickly. We are in the process of ordering our Thank you cards now. Thanks for all your help :)"
"The quality of the invites were better than expected. They look very high end. We ordered all of the accessories and will now be ordering our programs. Don't hesitate they are beautiful!"
"These invitations are gorgeous! I was looking for an elegant wedding invitation which embodied the Vintage Romance theme that I was shooting for. I went to a few local shops and was told that the style I was looking for would cost me between $9-$12 an invite... which was just not going to happen. After a lot of frustration I found Wedding Paper Divas site and loved every sample that I ordered from them (at reasonable prices to boot!). When it came down to ordering the invite this one fit the bill beautifully. It was simple yet had a unique design and looks amazing on the black pocket folds that I ordered."
"I got this invitation for my wedding in the grey, with the ticket corners, and pearl shimmer finish. The invitations looks so expensive and I am already getting compliments on them. Would def recommend."

The Diocese or Archdiocese of St Andrews was a territorial episcopal jurisdiction in early modern and medieval Scotland. It was the largest, most populous and wealthiest diocese of the medieval Scottish church, with territory in eastern Scotland stretching from Berwickshire and the Anglo-Scottish border to Aberdeenshire.
Although not an archdiocese until 1472, St Andrews was recognised as the chief see of the Scottish church from at least the 11th century. It came to be one of two archdioceses of the Scottish church, from the early 16th century having the bishoprics of Aberdeen, Brechin, Caithness, Dunblane, Dunkeld, Moray, Orkney and Ross as suffragans.

It's intimidating enough to play Jackie O, but Minka Kelly felt even more pressure to perform when she found out who was joining the cast of her latest film, The Butler.
"I'm not worthy. I feel so lucky and grateful. I was like, 'What am I doing here?!' " Kelly tells PEOPLE of starring alongside Robin Williams, Forest Whitaker, John Cusack, Vanessa Redgrave, Jane Fonda and more in the upcoming film, which tells the story of a butler who served eight presidents.
The movie also features another major star: the one and only Oprah Winfrey. "I didn't get to meet Oprah because our shooting schedules were different, but she's a pretty loved lady," Kelly says. "I have yet to hear a bad thing about her!"

Mandy Moore and Minka Kelly are ladies who brunch.
Joined by another female friend, the pair stepped out for brunch at BLD in West Hollywood on Saturday.
"They were very low-key and sat in the center of the restaurant, pretty much unnoticed by fellow diners," an onlooker tells PEOPLE.
Both of the famous friends were dressed down – Moore wore her hair in a bun and a gray V-neck T-shirt, while Minka sported a cozy gray sweater with her hair down in waves – and "didn't have a stitch of makeup on," the source adds.
While deep in conversation, Moore sipped on iced tea while the table shared granola, fruit, sandwiches and salads.

Arriving around 11:30 p.m. with a small group of friends, the duo "looked to be in the best of moods, sitting in a corner, happily sipping on Russian Standard Vodka Moscow mules while their friends sang and dance to Michael Jackson," an onlooker tells PEOPLE. "They seemed to be quite in love and happy!"
Other guests included Chris Evans and girlfriend Minka Kelly, who donned "giant smiles" as they stayed close throughout the evening.
Meanwhile, Mad Men's Christina Hendricks dressed for the holiday theme in a red plaid dress and enjoyed cocktails with her husband Geoffrey Arend and friends.

Playing the role of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis is no easy task – and an impressive list of actresses have portrayed the former First Lady onscreen, including Katie Holmes in The Kennedys last year. And now a new star can add Jackie O. to her resume: Minka Kelly.
The Friday Night Lights actress, 32, is set to appear as Onassis in The Butler, which premieres in 2013 and stars James Marsden as John F. Kennedy.
Kelly was recently snapped in full Jackie O garb with Marsden on the film's New Orleans set, which recalls a similar picture of Holmes in costume last year.
Do you think Kelly has what it takes to play the beloved Jackie O? Or did Holmes look better as the wife of the 35th President of the United States?

You look great!!! Out of curiousity, how are you handling your freedays?
My free days are still structured with 6 meals at 2-3 hr time intervals, but I will plan food that is not authorized. Like yesterday I had butter on toast and added 2 regular eggs to my egg whites instead of just one. Later I had french fries and a burger. But I also ate authorized meals because I like them and they make me feel good. My digestion has improved and it is mind blowing. I had to take medication to digest what I ate before I started this. I felt like the rusty tin man before, rusted shut all over on the inside. Food felt stagnant in my stomach and I had constant issues with bathroom needs. So I still like to stick with a plan and not eat a lot at once.
Thank you ALL for the compliments. You guys are the bomb! When I feel like taking it easy, I think of the progress I can make when I stick to the exact plan and how it can be a motivator for other people. I was looking in the mirror today at the gym and I can't believe what I am seeing!!! I wouldn't be as moivated without everybody here <3 <3
You are amazing!! Congrats on your progress & dedication!!
I am totally ready for new pics and to see the continued success!! I am addicted to looking through all the posted pictures bc it encourages me so so much!!
edit: I just got rid of what I had posted here because I was grumpy and had not done my workout yet! I talked too much about stuff that doesn't matter on this forum. Its always better to go on here POST workout :-P

They feature a pink chenille bathrobe, the only prop used in this series apart from a white face towel, and the edge or corner of a chair, in #100. In the first three images Sherman holds the robe to her body, covering herself with it; in the last image she wears it. The photographs were shot close-up so that the artist entirely fills the frame. They are slightly larger than life size. The images become progressively darker through the series; in all of them the background is too dark to be visible. Sherman has explained: 'I was thinking of the idea of the centerfold model. The pictures were meant to look like a model just after she'd been photographed for a centerfold.
