Myanmar's government had planned to move 38,000 people within Rakhine state by Tuesday but "it is unclear how many people have been relocated," the U.N. office said, adding that Muslim leaders in the country have called on people to cooperate with the government's evacuation.
With sprawling camps still crowded with people, it appeared very few Rohingya had agreed to leave, despite offers of additional food rations.
The ones that had left said they had little choice.
"They just put us on the truck and brought us here," said Mahmoud Issac, a day laborer now living with his family and about 500 other Rohingya on the grounds of a small mosque. His wife and five children live on the ground floor of a two-room school, while he and the other men sleep on the mosque's portico.
He has no idea if he'll be allowed to return to the camp that had become his home.
The Rohingya trace their ancestry to what is now Bangladesh, but many have lived in Myanmar for generations. Officially, though, they are dismissed as illegal aliens. They face widespread discrimination in largely Buddhist Myanmar, and particularly in Rakhine, where many of the Rohingya live.
Tensions remain high in Rakhine nearly a year after sectarian unrest tore through the region and left parts of Sittwe, the state capital, burned to the ground. At least 192 people were killed.
The violence has largely segregated Rakhine state along religious lines, with prominent Buddhists — including monks — urging people not to employ their Muslim onetime neighbors, or to shop in their businesses.
International rights groups and aid agencies urged that the evacuations be stepped up.
The British-based aid agency Oxfam welcomed the government's evacuation efforts, but said "swifter action is needed to ensure people are moved before the storm hits."
"It is essential that humanitarian principles are adhered to in moving all affected populations safely to suitable locations and that no one is left out," the group's director for Myanmar, Jane Lonsdale, said in a statement.
Weather experts have warned that the storm could shift and change in intensity before hitting land.
Myanmar's southern delta was devastated in 2008 by Cyclone Nargis, which swept away entire farming villages and killed more than 130,000 people. Two days before hitting Myanmar, Nargis weakened to a Category 1 cyclone before strengthening to a Category 4 storm.

Westside man hurt in crashFebruary 26,2013CLARENDON A West Rutland man was treated and released from the hospital for injuries he received Sunday in a car crash on Walker Mountain Road.
Vermont State Police say Jason M. Davis, 33, was treated for injuries to his leg and internal injuries Sunday morning after the 1995 Honda he was driving went off the road and struck some trees.
Davis was taken to Rutland Regional Medical Center where he was treated and later released, according to a hospital spokeswoman.
The cause of the crash was unclear although police said Davis was traveling north when he lost control of his vehicle and swerved off the opposite side of the road.
No charges were filed in the case.MORE IN This Just In

July jobless rate jumps in Coweta to 10.1%, in Newnan to 11.9%
Whoever said the recession is over forgot to consider the situation in Newnan and Coweta County, at least in terms of unemployment. The relative economic boom taking place locally continues to be offset by high jobless rates. Figures for July showed Newnan with nearly 12 percent unemployment and Coweta County at just over 10 percent.
The unemployment situation in Coweta in July showed a rate of 10.1 percent. That compares to the 9.7 percent rate in June and a rate of 9.4 percent a year ago.
In all, July's 10.1 percent rate represents 6,128 people out of work in a workforce of 60,544.
The situation in Newnan worsened even more in July, with the 10.9 percent rate in June giving way to an 11.9 percent rate in July.
Newnan's jobless rate in July 2010 was 10.6 percent.
And in the 10-county Three Rivers Regional Commission the unemployment rate increase slightly to 11.8 percent. That represents a change from 11.6 percent in June and 11.1 percent a year ago.
The July figures for Three Rivers equates to 26,733 people out of work in a workforce of 225,923.
Jobless figures for the state also worsened in July, with the June rate of 9.9 percent increasing to 10.1 percent, the same rate of unemployment as in July 2010.
Meantime, the national jobless rate held at 9.3 percent in July.
Whether locally or nationally, unemployment statistics provided by governmental departments do not reflect the entire picture since they do not account for the number of people either underemployed, measured at 18.3 percent in July by Gallup.com, or those who have ceased looking for work.
Unemployment aside, the overall Coweta County economy continues to fare better than many of its neighbors. Development continues to occur at Ashley Park, including the construction of the Cancer Treatment Centers of America hospital, at Poplar Road and I-85 with construction of the eight-story Piedmont Newnan Hospital and in other areas around the county.

I've done some changes to the image in the header of my theme. How do I get the new header image into my site?
I've done some changes to the image in the header of my theme. How do I get the new header image into my site?
should be in the style sheet... could depend on the theme. What theme are you using?
I'm using Green Theme 1.0 by Kasper Solberg.
The header image is located in the img directory of the theme...it's called front.jpg as you can see at the link below:
Just name your header image front.jpg and replace the default file with yours...make sure your image is 760px x 175px for best results without having to adjust the css.
^that's probably the easiest way but not always fool proof when or if there's updates.
@svsdnb True, there are lots of ways to do things...if you have a better way, please post so people will have options.
Not to say this is better... just preference...
find #header
should be a line under that, that says..
background:url(img/front.jpg) no-repeat;
drop your new image in the img folder and rename the call according to your file name..
background:url(img/yournewheader.jpg) no-repeat;
But if you don't know CSS all that well just do as Figaro has suggested. It's probably the easiest solution.
I'm very new to WordPress and working with themes...please excuse my dumb question but how exactly do I replace the default file with my own?
I just tried to use an ftp program to find the right area to upload my new image/or replace the default file with my own...I've gotten as far as wp-content/themes/green-theme/img but don't see exactly where to place my file. By default do you mean the header.php file?
What I've done so far is save the old header image to my desktop, made the changes and now have the new image saved on my desktop.
Hi svsdnb,
I didn't read your post until after my last confused post was already posted....I'll give your suggestion a try right now. Thanks for the help!
you should see your ftp program set up in a split screen, right?
left side desktop or current local folder, right side is sever side, right?
take new image, click and hold and drag over to the right into the ...green-theme/img directory (folder). that should prompt your for permission to overwrite the file and update with the new version.
Okay, go here with your ftp program:
You should see a file called: front.jpg
Delete it.
Name your file front.jpg (assuming it's a jpg image that you made?)
Upload your file in the same place where you deleted the original one.
Refresh you site...
It works! Thanks guys!

On of the best features of the Washington Post's "Outlook" section is where they explode 5 myths about a given topic.
Yesterday, they looked at several myths – some conservative, some liberal – about the effects of letting the Bush tax cuts expire. Coming on the heels of that notorious leftie Alan Greenspan's urging that the tax cuts not be renewed, the case of extending them has only one logic: If you are a Republican worried about the possibility of a primary challenge, you might logically conclude that your political survival requires that you vote to extend them. They will not help the economy. They will not create jobs. They will not help small businesses. The only job they will help save is that of an incumbent GOP congressman.

There's no denying Adele is the go-to when one is going through a breakup. The 28-year-old British songbird writes heart-wrenching ballads like no other. But who does the "Hello" singer turn to when she's a little heartbroken?
Naturally, listing to her owns songs about past heartaches probably aren't her first choice. She reveals to PEOPLE magazine, six artists she plays during her sad moments. Find out who below.
Florence + The Machine first debuted "Delilah" back in May. At long last, the English indie rock band drops a music video for the How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful standout.
Directed by Vincent Haycock, the stunning visual features lead singer Welch as the biblical character, Delilah. She navigates her way through a hellish seedy apartment complex. As you'd expect, there's plenty of religious imagery and Welch executing her signature convulsive dance moves. Check out the clip below.
Delilah Music Video Description
A staunch fan favourite on record and equally popular live number, the video for 'Delilah' continues to visually chornicle Florence in her journey through the engulfing landscapes of the songs on How Big How Blue How Beautiful. Filmed in Los Angeles, it sees Florence assume the role of the biblical character Delilah, whilst keeping true to the adventurous aesthetic and themes that have been the markings of the Odyssey series.
Totally off topic here, but if someone asked me what my favorite song containing 'Delilah' was, hands down it's "Hey There Delilah" by the Plain White T's. I immediately heard that hook in my head the second I read this song's title. Love singing that song at karaoke
"Delilah" is the latest taste off Florence + The Machine's forthcoming album, How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful. It's another bombastic track that fans are accustomed to hearing from the English rock band and follows the release of "St. Jude," "What Kind of Man," and "Ship to Wreck."
Hopefully, an accompanying visual is coming shortly. So far, Florence and company have debuted a clip for every track released. "Delilah" is a solid track, but a slick visual can really elevate it to the next level. Give it a listen below.
It's a Florence vs. Florence battle royale. My money is on Florence 😉
Florence + The Machine unveiled their new clip just before taking the stage for their Coachella set. "Ship To Wreck" is the latest taste off their forthcoming studio album, How Big How Blue How Beautiful. The powerful upbeat track is my favorite so far from this era of theirs. It's everything I love about the English band.
I'm excited that Welch and company are taking a Beyonce-like approach to promote the LP. They plan on releasing a clip for every track. I wish every musical act did this. Sometimes a strong video can do wonders for a song's appeal. Watch their latest visual below.
Florence + The Machine shares the fourth taste off their forthcoming album, How Big How Blue How Beautiful in stores June 2. "Ship To Wreck" features a guitar beat and Welch's signature powerhouse vocals which tells a tale about inner turmoil and personal hardship.
"I was thinking about my own self destructive side, and how you can make something only to tear it down, enjoy/destroy, create/devastate etc. When you're in that whirlwind, you often end up breaking the thing you love the most." – Florence Welch
In my opinion, it's the best one yet and has the most potential to become a hit among the four shared tracks. Give it a listen below. You'll be thankful you did. I'm already obsessed.
Florence + the Machine are certainly in a giving mood this week. On the heels of "How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful," the English rock band debuts the official lead cut off their third upcoming studio album.
While the track they premiered earlier this week was mostly instrumental, "What Kind Of Man" is everything you'd expect and had hoped for from Florence and company. It starts off with a pseudo a cappella intro before kicking into high gear with a killer beat and Florence's signature wails. Forget Hozier, Welch takes us to church with this new offering. Simply triumphant.
Like their previous clip, this one is directed by Vincent Haycock and features mesmerizing choreography from Sia "Chandelier" creative mind Ryan Heffington. Check out the slightly NSFW video below. It features brief nudity.
"I guess although I've always dealt in fantasy and metaphor when I came to writing, that meant the songs this time were dealing much more in reality. Ceremonials was so fixated on death and water, and the idea of escape or transcendence through death, but the new album became about trying to learn how live, and how to love in the world rather than trying to escape from it. Which is frightening because I'm not hiding behind anything but it felt like something I had to do." – Florence Welch regarding upcoming album
It's been a long four years since Florence + The Machine unleashed Ceremonials in 2011. Thankfully, the English rock band decided to release new material today from their upcoming third studio album. It's about friggin' time.
"How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful" is a mysterious track with beautiful instrumentals. As usual, Florence Welch's voice is pure magic. The track comes with an accompanying hypnotic music video.
Welch is shown dancing with a doppelgänger in the clip directed by Vincent Haycock and Tabitha Denholm. If you find yourself mesmerized by the choreography, it comes from the creative mind of Ryan Heffington. He's the same choreographer responsible for all those dance moves in Sia's viral "Chandelier." Check out the video below.
I always gravitate towards music when I'm hanging out at home and listen to anything from lounge music, top 40 to electronic/house tunes. At any given time, there is a Dance Party Playlist on my iPhone which usually contains remixes of popular Top 40 hits and come in handy for various activities like cleaning the apartment, showering, laundry or going for a run.
Here are 6 tracks currently on my playlist. Leave me some of your suggestions in the comments below. I'd love to know what you're listening to.
Check out the tracks on the next part of the post.

Post-layout is an important stage in the modern very large scale integration (VLSI) design. In this stage, the extraction and verification tools can get the most accurate results with the complete layout information, and the layout problems can be detected precisely for further design improvements or optimizations. But the problem is that the design optimization is very hard to perform in post-layout. Every design modification is under tight geometry constraints. Usually the designer either changes layout manually by layout editor, or goes back to previous placement or routing stage in order to have the preferred results. How to modify the layout becomes a bottleneck in the post-layout optimization. In this paper, we propose a new method to resolve this problem called the triangulation encoding graph (TEG) method. Based on an improved topological layout representation and a set of layout operation algorithms, TEG provides an incremental layout modification environment for post-layout optimizations. Experimental results show that TEG is efficient and effective in processing industry VLSI designs.

Mitchell Travel Guide: 27 reviews and 76 photos
City of the Corn Palace and really bizarre statues around town. Can you handle it?
The Corn Palace is the biggest tourist attraction in Mitchell. People flock to the down town, er.. Uptown, just to have their picture taken in front of it.
I lived here for nearly a year, so check out Mitchell through all seasons on my pages.
- Pros:On the Interstate. And for outdoorsmen: Cabela's.
- Cons:Not much else here.
- In a nutshell:Corny town.

Nice taste of Mitchell! You do them proud. Birthday greetings from Alaska!
Tom Jones @ the Corn Palace! And, are all the locals as lively as Zeke & Zack? lol! (only joking). Good on you for giving small town America Mitchell a decent write up Jenn.
Finally a page for the Corn Palace. I have a soft spot in my heart for unabashed tourist traps like this.
I passed through here and saw the Corn Palace when I was little. There is definitely more than the Corn Palace in Mitchell.
You did a great Job on your Mitchell Page! I was born and raised there for 18 years.
I grew up in Mitchell. Good memories of childhood there. Yeah, many summer nights spent at the Zesto. When did you live there? I left for college in 1986 and have only visited a few times since then.
Let's see--Singing Pickles, 4 day Rodeo, a CORN FERTILITY RITE with a chilli cooking contest, plus a drive-in movie and there's more?!?!! I'm speechless with wonder. Where's an ethnographer when you need one?
Enjoyed your comments about Mitchell. I wish I had known about the Kelly Special on my last visit!
I still talk about the corn palace almost 10 years after my visit.
I got a little heartburn just looking at the Kelly Special! Next time I come back to this page I hope you have a picture of the singing pickles.

Praise is due to Rutland RecMarch 13,2014A few weeks ago, the Rutland Recreation Department ran their annual youth basketball tournament at Rutland High School. As a Rutland City resident, I would like to take this time to thank Steve Marro, April Cioffi and the rest of the recreation staff for doing an excellent job. The tournament fielded more than 30 teams, boys and girls grades 3-6, from Rutland County. It is just another example of how well the Rutland Rec serves our youth and our community. With such limited facilities and resources, it always amazes me how good of a job the Rec does with the programs they offer.
Yes, and unfortunately, the new Rec project got voted down a few years ago by a revote, that would have been a huge positive for our youth and our community, but the Rutland Rec staff moved on, and continue to offer their numerous programs with the facilities that they have access to. I also know that other organizations have stepped up and alloedw the Rec to use their facilities, which allows a lot of the Rec programs to run, places like Rutland Public Schools, Christ the King School and The Knights of Columbus, to name a few.
My three kids have benefited greatly from the Rutland Recreation Department throughout the years and will continue to. The Rutland community should be proud and thankful that we have such a great recreation program with a great staff who is dedicated to giving Rutland the best programs they can, helping make Rutland a great place to live.

I just went through a week of hell trying to save a VPS server with 1.3GB of RAM from crashing in part because of YARPP. I have a site that serves 600,000 pages a month, across 9000+ posts. I love the fact YARPP generates related posts on the fly (in particular because what is deemed to be related is always drawn from the newest content on your site), but it appears that YARPP trawling through my database of 9000+ posts 20,000 times a day is too much for the CPU and server.
Does anyone have any advice on this, or fixes / tweaks for heavy resource use when using YARPP?
The other plugins I've seen, including the follow, generate related posts when you create the post. That's okay if you install the plugin from day one. But 9000+ posts down the line, it means that only your newest posts (after installing the alternative plugins) would have related posts.
I need to find a way through this conundrum, because related posts is one of the most important ways to keep visitors onsite.


text: Posted January 2, 2013 I'm so sick of the "pro bowl is a joke" comments. Yes, the game means nothing, but being selected does - or at least is supposed to. No doubt the voting system is awful, but I can't stand when people say "oh, it's a joke anyway so it doesn't matter" just because one of their players gets overlooked. I promise you if an undeserving Panther made it via name recognition over a clearly better player very few, if any, people here would complain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LONDON European shares inched towards two-year highs and German Bund futures dipped on Monday, as a political attempt to break a budget impasse in the United States revived appetite for shares and dented appetite for safe-haven assets.
U.S. House Republican leaders said on Friday they would seek to pass a three-month extension of federal borrowing authority in the coming days to buy time for the Democrat-controlled Senate to pass a plan to shrink budget deficits.
European shares were supported by the news, but with no clear response from the Democrats and a thin session expected due to a market holiday in the United States, the impact on other assets such as Bunds is likely to be limited.
London's FTSE 100, Paris's CAC-40 and Frankfurt's DAX opened between 0.4 and 0.5 percent higher, lifting the pan-European FTSEurofirst 300 0.3 percent and MSCI's world index 0.1 percent.
"There's a bit of encouragement coming out of the U.S.," said Toby Campbell-Gray, head of trading at Tavira Securities in Monaco.
He added that equity markets had remained resilient in the face of an uncertain economic outlook as many investors had stepped in to buy "on the dip" on days when shares had fallen.
Ahead of the region's first finance ministers' meeting of the year the euro was steady against the dollar, while the yen firmed after touching a new low, ahead of a Bank of Japan decision expected to deliver bold monetary easing.
The dollar slipped back to a low of 89.42 yen and was last trading at 89.57 yen, while the euro also fell to a low of 119.08 and last traded at 119.27 yen.
With little in the way of economic data or debt issuance and U.S. markets shut for the Martin Luther King Jr. public holiday, it was expected to be a fairly quite market day.
Oil prices took their cues from a report in the United States at the end of last week that showed consumer sentiment at its weakest in a year as a result of the uncertainty surrounding the country's debt crisis.
Concerns about demand overshadowed supply disruption fears reinforced by the Islamist militant attack and hostage-taking at a gas plant in Algeria, a member of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries.
U.S. crude futures fell 0.5 percent to $95.08 a barrel, while Brent fell 0.3 percent to $111.55 early on Monday but had recovered to almost flat as European trading gathered pace.

Chairman's message
Dear friend,
BBVA has been developing a strategy for years based on diversification in markets with high growth potential, a customer-centric business model and technology as a key element in order to face the transformation process being experienced in the financial sector.
BBVA is an increasingly global financial group, and we have used these recent years to continue our expansion into markets with high growth potential, such as Turkey and Latin America that already provide more than half of our annual gross income.
In addition to the profound regulatory changes in our industry, as well as the turning of the world economy towards emerging markets, society, lifestyles and buying habits are also changing rapidly.
Conventional banking business models are no longer enough to meet customer needs. BBVA has been able to anticipate and evolve, offering our customers new, more simple solutions that they can access how, where and when they want. All this has been possible due to the use of technology as a strategic element to differentiate us from our competitors.
And even more importantly, at BBVA we are working for a better future for people, our customers, our employees and society at large. The BBVA team are part of a corporate culture based on the principles of integrity, prudence and transparency, which have been key in allowing us to build a strong business model that is able to grow and is very customer centric.
I invite you to browse through the Group's corporate website, the best online storefront to find out in detail who we are and how we work, reflecting our commitment to transparency.
I also suggest you visit the Group's other websites that can be accessed from here. There you will find the widest range of products and services, designed and engineered to meet the specific needs of each of our customers.
Welcome to BBVA.
Group Executive Chairman of BBVA

Hi Robert,
I've got a problem, if I use IE 6, 7 or 8, the pop-ups will not look normal. The width is resised to the preset width, but height is still original, so image is reshaped. \\
PLease see: http://travel.synyan.net/%e8%b6%b3%e8%bf%b9/ under IE 6-8.
I've checked the backend panel, it is probably because:
If pop up window image is too wide, then resize it to pre-fixed width. the height will be adjusted accordingly.
(this function only works when your theme supports wp_head()-hook)
So, how can I make sure my theme supports the hook?

It's a beautiful spring day on Sesame Street: the sun is shining in a cloudless sky, flowers are blooming everywhere, and leaves are filling in on the trees. But Elmo has just unearthed his sled and he asks fairy-in-training Abby Cadabby to magically bring back winter so he can play. This funny story, based on an episode from the Sesame Street TV show, helps toddlers learn about nature's clues to the four seasons and the order in which the seasons pass. And Abby's spells, chanted with help from Big Bird, Baby Bear, Telly, and Grover, emphasize rhyming words, a key concept in language development for toddlers.

What is your first impression upon seeing all these carburetors in a row? Sheer terror or wondering why they would do something that crazy? A few of us actually must have them. When the carburetors are set up properly, the feeling of an additional four barrels opening is exhilarating. The acceleration rate is similar in a Corvette with a supercharger or nitrous. (more…)
1963-1982 Corvette Dent Removal Tool Instructions
Your 1963-1982 Corvette front crossmember is subjected to large rocks, unimaginable road debris and damage from repair work (poorly positioned floor jacks). As a result, many, if not all, the frames under C2 and C3 Corvettes have caved-in front crossmembers. The repair tool (Corvette Central part number 182100) will aid in straightening your crossmember if the majority of damage is within the perimeter of the inner forcing plate coverage area. (more…)
C2 Headlight Bucket Assembly
Headlight buckets on 1963-1967 Corvettes can be rather difficult to install properly. Ill-fitting assemblies and incorrect installations are common finds . We'll provide some tips and tricks to do the job properly. (more…)
Installing a Side Pipe Exhaust System on a C2 Vette
All-American Look For Your Mid-Year Vette
Story by Jerry Heasley, Vette Magazine
Factory side pipes go on a Vette like a set of pinstripes on Mickey Mantle's Yankee uniform. The combination just looks right and all-American.
Mike remembered side pipes on his '67 big block coupe. Although that car is long gone, today he owns a '66 coupe with no side pipes, officially RPO code N14, catalogued as "Side Mount Exhaust System" for 1965-66-67 Corvettes.
After the installation, Mike admitted the side pipes seemed a little louder than he recalled from the 1960s. Back then he was a foot loose teenager without a wife in the passenger seat.
Of course, a more robust exhaust is one reason for installing side pipes. His base 327 four barrel also felt a little stronger after the installation.
Of course, he got the look. Side pipes, with their aluminum covers, chambered pipes and stainless steel tips add flash and dash to any Mid-Year.
Mike ran into two surprises during the installation. Surprise #1 was he had to cut off an ear of each lower front fender. Surprise #2 was he had to bend back the steel brackets visible beneath the original side molding on each side of the car.
He also discovered the passenger side bend in the factory pipe near the header would not fit. Apparently, the pipes had suffered some damage sometime in the past. Luckily, skillful heating and bending restored them to their original shape. Possible wear and tear on OEM side pipes is why ordering a reproduction set, which saves money, might be the better alternative except for restorers after points in concours judging.
Buying a new set of side pipes from the aftermarket will assure a good fit of the pipes and the option of longer lasting stainless steel.
The installation is fairly straightforward with some important key points included in our picture set.
1963-82 Corvette Power Steering Service
Power steering is a mechanical wonder that many of us often take for granted. For some, it is hard to even remember a time without power steering. Today's systems are cost effective to manufacture and are very reliable with just basic maintenance. It is likely that these systems will remain in place for several more years despite the pressure to continually increase fuel economy.
The power steering system consists of a reservoir, pump, relief valve, control valve, power cylinder, and high/low pressure hoses. The system is effective because of the pressure differential that is created by the power steering pump. A quick explanation of how power steering works is in order. The reservoir supplies the fluid to the pump, which is driven by the engine via belt. The fluid is pressurized and sent to the control valve and the relief valve. When the steering shaft is turned, the control valve sends fluid to the power cylinder and the power cylinder uses a piston to aid in reducing steering effort. (more…)

This is a fun project for kids to help with. They will enjoy coming up with interesting ways of decorating their own "popsicle." Who doesn't love an ice-cold treat when it's hot outside?
School is out in most places and warmer weather has arrived. The sounds of the street are filled with children's laughter and the catchy jingle of the ice cream man. Stop there, parents — you won't need to shell out for overpriced and unhealthy treats anymore. Instead, try this cheaper make-at-home cold summer treat, a great way to get healthy fruit into our kids with a little something special.
This is a fun project for kids to help with. They will enjoy coming up with interesting ways of decorating their own "popsicle." Who doesn't love an ice-cold treat when it's hot outside?
Recipe makes 6 chocolate banana pops.
Peel the bananas and cut each in half. Push a popsicle stick part way through the cut end of the banana so it looks like a popsicle. Set the popsicles on a cutting board or plastic plate, and place them in the freezer while you prepare the remaining ingredients. Having the bananas cold will help the chocolate harden faster.
Lay a sheet of parchment paper on the counter. Set out sprinkles. Put semi-sweet chocolate and 1½tsp of shortening in a bowl. Microwave the chocolate at 100% power for 30 seconds. Stir and repeat. Repeat a third time, if necessary, until the chocolate is completely melted. Repeat the process with the white chocolate.
Take 1 banana out of the freezer at a time. Place it on the parchment paper and pour your chocolate of choice over the top. Turn the banana to coat all sides.
Decorate the banana with the desired sprinkles. Hold it for about a minute so the chocolate can set, then replace it in the freezer.
Scrape extra chocolate off of the parchment paper and add it back to its respective bowl. Re-melt it in a microwave for 30 seconds if the chocolate becomes too thick to pour. Repeat the coating and decorating process with the remaining bananas.

It's Crunch Time
Jack Lew on why a budget agreement may have been written off prematurely
President Obama's budget director, Jack Lew, is at the center of the debate over the U.S. budget and how much should be cut in the coming years. A congressional supercommittee is racing to identify at least $1.2 trillion in budget cuts over the next decade. If the committee fails to meet a deadline of this Wednesday, automatic spending cuts could be triggered in 2013.
Mr. Lew spoke with Gerald Seib, The Wall Street Journal's Washington bureau chief, about the prospect for achieving significant reductions in the U.S. budget deficit. Here are edited excepts of their discussion:
Relative Optimism
GERALD SEIB: The group just heard from Erskine Bowles and Alan Simpson. I think you've heard at least a variation of their presentation before. And they said things about the federal deficit like "unsustainable path, broken process, inability to get to the heart of the problem."
And Erskine at one point said, "We'll have a crisis before those guys figure it out." I think by "those guys" he meant everybody in this town. Where I would start, Jack, is simply by asking you, can you offer a more optimistic scenario than that?
Journal Report

Plus, see video excerpts of interviews with leaders at the conference.
Read More From CEO Council
JACK LEW: Well, it's not hard to be more optimistic than that. Erskine Bowles and Alan Simpson did an enormously important public service this year in presenting a set of bipartisan recommendations. While it didn't get the job done, it helped shape the debate. And a lot of us are working in a world shaped by the work they did.
I do tend to be a little more optimistic than that. It's a parlor sport in Washington—calling processes "dead" before they've had their final chance. I've never seen something complicated done before the last minute in Washington. So the next few days are critical. Now I'm not going to sit here and say, "I think it's 90% likely that a big deal comes out of the supercommittee."
But I think it's been written off prematurely. If you look at the negotiations that went on this summer, the president and the speaker were this close to a really historic agreement. Now one could take the depressing view that it fell apart and therefore nothing can happen. Or they started to show a way toward working together. The working together is ultimately, either this week or sometime in the future, going to be a balanced package.
As the Bowles-Simpson commission did, it's a package that puts revenue on the table, that puts spending cuts on the table, that gets something big enough done that it inspires confidence. It's not going to be done in a lopsided way.
Over the summer President Obama was willing to do things which were quite painful from the perspective of a Democrat and Democratic president. He was willing to entertain changes in Social Security cost-of-living adjustments. He was willing to entertain changes in the eligibility age for Medicare, put in payments for various services that there's no payment for in Medicare. At the end of the day we hit a wall—I think because ultimately Republicans in the House were unwilling to accept revenues as part of the package.
We put our views before the supercommittee in a quite comprehensive package that the president sent them in September. They're now struggling with the same thing we were struggling with in July: What is the balance between mandatory entitlement savings and revenue savings that's fair, that's balanced, that protects those who are at the most unfortunate position in life? And I'm not sure what the outcome is going to be.
If one can read the tea leaves, they're struggling to get to a revenue number that's large enough to have Democrats go forward for serious entitlement changes. And it's still not clear whether they can sell that in a Republican caucus.
Walking Backward?
MR. SEIB: But you're describing a situation in the summer in which a deficit-reduction plan of $4 trillion over the next decade was unsustainable. Now, just a few months later, we're talking about whether a deficit-reduction plan of $1.2 trillion is even achievable. That sounds like walking backward to most people.
MR. LEW: Let's remember what we did over the summer. We did not accomplish $4 trillion as we had hoped, but we did lock in $1 trillion of savings in discretionary spending. That's the annual appropriations. And as somebody who's now putting together a 2013 budget I can tell you those caps have real meaning.
The measure of doing well in an agency will go from, "Did I grow?" to "Did I get frozen at last year's level?" "Frozen" is going to be the new "I won." So we're in a different place than we were discretionary spending.
On defense, we're close to $500 billion of savings. We're working on a strategic review with the Defense Department. These are serious trade-offs.
The president sent a $4 trillion plan. I think the members of this committee are going back and forth as we did over the summer.
In an odd way it's easier to go bigger than smaller because if you're picking just a few sacred cows, it's very hard. If everyone is in it together, in some ways it gets a little bit easier. I think in some ways they're more likely to get a slightly larger number. They may not succeed at all, but they may get a larger number rather than a smaller number.
MR. SEIB: Are you suggesting that, in its own messy way, Washington has turned the aircraft carrier on the big spending debate? In other words, is it significant that the discussion now is not whether to cut spending but how much and how fast?
MR. LEW: Well, I think we've started. It's not reasonable to say, "The goal was $4 trillion. We did $1 trillion and we got nothing accomplished." Having the first quarter of it done is significant.
Getting more than halfway there would be a very important step. I've been rooting for success for the supercommittee. I think it would be hugely important for the country and for confidence both to get the policy accomplished and to show that Washington can work.
It was a very bad thing from April to August to have a display of dysfunction in Washington. Look at what the rating agencies have said. We do not have an immediate economic crisis in our deficit. We have a problem that we can see staring us clearly in the face just a few years down the road. We have some time to deal with it.
The reason the downgrade of the U.S. credit rating happened this summer was not because we didn't implement immediate cuts. It was because the rating agencies, as the American people did, saw a Washington that was dysfunctional. That's a very bad thing. And I think breaking through that would be as important as the economic accomplishment.
The Cynical View
MR. SEIB: The cynical view, though, of the process at the moment is the White House would be more than happy to see failure here because it sets up an election year dynamic of a president who wants to do the right thing against Republicans in Congress who won't budge.
MR. LEW: I think we've changed the debate from one in the summer where frankly a very small number of extreme members of Congress were able to hold everyone in Washington and the American economy on the edge of a cliff. Would we be willing to default on the bonds of the United States, or would we give in to the kinds of policy changes that were unacceptable to us?
We said "no" to that. We said "no" to that for a good reason. You can't deal on those terms. You cannot capitulate because someone else is willing to drive the car off the cliff.
We're not in that situation right now. The reason it was so important for the economy and for the country, really for the world, for us to get agreement on the debt limit that went beyond the election is we created a window of time to have hopefully a more civil debate. I think there has been that kind of conversation going on in the supercommittee. They are struggling with this. They're not done. They're not there yet.
These are hard decisions. To turn it just into a political issue is a mistake. It would be better for this to be done sooner rather than later. But when it's done it has to be done right. It has to meet the same standard whether it's done now or later. Is it balanced? Is it fair? Is everyone being asked to do their part? And does it get something meaningful done?

In Amarillo Independent School District middle school basketball, if the conference champion and the tournament champion are different teams, they must play a game to decide the overall champion.
With second-place Bonham upending Crockett, the teams met again Feb. 9 at the Tascosa High School Activity Center.
It was a different Crockett team that showed up in the first quarter. Ashley Leven put the Lady Pioneers on the board first with a field goal. Bonham's first points came after Natalie Slaton was fouled and sank two free throws. Crockett's Jena Cook hit for 3, and Byrd answered with a long-ranger of her own. The first period ended with the teams tied at 7.
Bonham played opportunistically in the second, snatching the ball away from flustered Crockett players, intercepting errant passes. At the half, the Lady Mustangs had forged a 16-11 lead.
Mayberry swiped the ball from a Crockett player and scored the first points of the third quarter. The Lady Mustangs continued to strip the ball, foiling the Lady Pioneers' offensive schemes. Michelle Brister hit a trey with 2:44 remaining for Crockett's first points of the third quarter. Bonham still led by 4 points, 20-16, with only the fourth quarter to go.
Halie David was fouled while hitting a field goal for Bonham and added the free throw to open the fourth. Bonham's swarming defense continued to keep Crockett off balance. Leven scored Crockett's first two points of the final frame, breaking the Lady Pioneers' scoring drought.
Crockett continued making miscues on in-bounds passing and trying to force passes to players closely covered under the basket, but because of foul trouble, Bonham couldn't put the Lady Pioneers away.
With less than 2 minutes remaining in the game, Leven went to the free-throw line and dropped in two to reduce Crockett's deficit to 4 points, 23-19. Brister was fouled and her successful free throw brought Crockett to within 3, 23-20.
Sierra Johnson took a trip to the line and sank both throws to trim the Lady Mustangs lead to 1, 23-22, with 58 seconds left. Johnson made a return appearance at the free throw line, and her two scores gave Crockett its first lead since the first quarter, 24-23, with 40 seconds left.
Bonham's Allen was fouled with 27 seconds remaining and tied the score at 24 by hitting 1 of 2 from the line. With only 7 seconds remaining, Crockett's Brister was fouled and hit both free throws to put the Lady Pioneers up 26-24.
When time ran out, the David Crockett Lady Pioneers claimed the overall city championship. Brister led Crockett with 8 points, and J'Rhea Wise paced the Bonham attack with 6.
Crockett coach Danette Simpson praised her team for their efforts and offered respect to the Bonham players and coach.
"The girls were better matched up and were ready for Bonham's pressure," she said. "The girls know what a good team Bonham is and they knew that they had to better prepare themselves for this game.
"This group of young ladies have worked very hard to get this win, they knew how tough it was going to be. Bonham has a great group of girls and Coach Faulk does an excellent job."
Simpson said despite the intense preparation and the emotions that come out during a game of this caliber, she's looking forward to following the careers of all the competitors in the future.
"What's neat for our girls and Bonham is that these same girls will all be playing together next year," she said. "What a team that will be!
"I want to thank all of the girls for working hard and always giving 100 percent. They were a very special group."
