Recap: It's '80s night on 'Dancing with the Stars'
One couple returns to the top while a judges' favorite falters
Our stars are getting rad for '80s week. That gag-o-licious statement is not of my own creation, mind you, but how ABC is plugging tonight's episode of "Dancing with the Stars." I'm fine with '80s week and suspect this might actually be fun, but if I'm going to have to listen to retro lingo all night, count me out.
But so much for the lingo -- we kick things off with a performance from the Bangles! Susanna Hoffs! She looks good. Although, admittedly, I thought she was a back-up singer at first. But this is a nice touch of '80s flair.
AACK! As the stars descend the stairs, I see Rob Kardashian is wearing neon green, one of the most unfortunate fashion colors of the decade. However, everyone looks ridiculous, so I'm sure he doesn't mind. At least his outfit is just a shirt and not a cheerleading uniform.
Oh, goody. Before each dance, the judges will natter on uselessly about each dance and what they need to do in this performance. Carrie Ann discusses how Hope and Maks can become contenders. Hope's not as feminine as she could be. But the tango could be her breakthrough! And Hope and Maks have to work together better.
Hope and Maks
The tango is about a love-hate relationship, so perfect for Hope and Maks. Maks says it's really a love-love relationship. It's just rehearsal that gets in the way. Oh, Maks, you card, you.
Hey, maybe the tango is Hope's dance after all. She's actually emoting a bit -- and I actually buy her as the icy bitch, which is a far cry from last week's sweet doll routine. This doesn't look bad.
Len tells Maks he did a good job, but Hope was too willowy and limp. Really? But he liked the aggression and the attack. Bruno thought Hope got the '80s super bitch down to a T. He thought it was strong, sexy and powerful. Carrie Ann thought she was strong but her lines were too awkward.
We see baby pictures of Hope and Maks, who were adorable children. Aw, shucks.
Carrie Ann - 8 Len - 8 Bruno - 8
Bruno's advice for Carson and Anna is for Carson to work on his technique. If he can combine personality with technique, he'll be a winner!
Carson and Anna
Oh, he wants so badly for this to be a good dance. But it isn't. He seems to have forgotten huge amounts of the routine. This is just grinning, jumping and flailing, honestly.
Bruno thought it was loopier than a Looney Tune. He says it was a crowning achievement in madness. Carrie Ann thought it was definitely fun, but she didn't see much technique anywhere. Len likes Carson but feels it wasn't good enough. I think Carson's days might be numbered, unfortunately.
Carrie Ann - 6 Len - 6 Bruno - 7
Len tells us Nancy and Tristan are hard workers, and he loved Nancy's quickstep. But her rumba needs to be pitch perfect and he doesn't want to see an older lady acting like a young floozy. Well, that's nice, Len.
Nancy and Tristan
Nancy Grace was a cheerleader. These days, she likes to boss poor Tristan around, so that makes her a tiny tyrant. I guess that's progress.
This was actually, well, kind of sweet. Still, I'm not sure sweet is going to be enough. She has some pretty good moves, but the routine itself is very slow. I feel like Nancy thinks she's dancing in a senior citizens' edition of "DWTS."
Carrie Ann thought it was nice, but she wanted to see real passion. Len thought it was simple but effective. Bruno thought the pitch was exactly right.
Carrie Ann - 7 Len - 7 Bruno - 8
Nancy gets emotional because she got one eight. Nancy gets emotional far more often than is entirely necessary, to be honest.
Bruno thinks J.R. exudes magic. He thinks he could be back on top with the samba. Ricki can't be perfect forever, after all.
J.R. and Karina
He always danced with his mom, so he thinks he'll be able to nail the samba. He and Karina take a field trip to the Conga Room to see Sheila E. and he feels he's gotten in touch with his Latin roots.
Hey, if all it takes is a visit to the Conga Room to dance like this, sign me up. He moves like a professional in this routine. Great, great job.
Len thinks he's the bar for how men should dance the samba. Bruno thought he was a sex machine. Carrie Ann thought it was muy caliente. I think this will land J.R. and Katrina at, if not the top of the leader board (Ricki hasn't performed yet), at least close to it.
Carrie Ann - 9 Len - 9 Bruno - 10
Len feels Rob is growing and he wants to see Rob take control of the dance floor. Oh, and he has to be sexy. Ugh.
Rob and Cheryl
Cheryl admits she didn't think he'd make it this far. Me, neither. Romeo drops by to show Rob how to be sexy. Doesn't work. Rob looks like he's sleepwalking through this routine. His moves are fine, but he's just a big, boring lump.
Bruno thought we saw Rob the heartthrob. What? Carrie Ann thought he was sturdy on his feet and sexy as heck. Len thought he pulled it off. What were these judges watching? An old video of "Dirty Dancing"? It certainly couldn't have been this lummox.
Carrie Ann - 9 Len - 8 Bruno - 8
Carrie Ann thinks Chaz came out strong, then got injured, then lost his confidence. Still, when he gets it right, it's remarkable. She wants to see more movement and less walking.
Chaz and Lacey
Lacey invites her dad Buddy to show Chaz that big boys can dance, too. It's like watching two Buddy Abbotts shake their groove things, which is surprisingly charming.
Go, Ewok! Let's face it -- Chaz is never going to be a great dancer, and his only hope is to squeak by on personality, tenacity and viewer votes. That being said, he's fun to watch. And props to him for really shaking it.
Carrie Ann thought he did a good job. Len thought it was a gallant effort and he liked that he gave it a go. Bruno liked that he delivered the hip wiggle. The judges are kind, I suppose, because there's just no point in trying to tear him apart. He's doing the best he can with limited resources.
Carrie Ann - 7 Len - 7 Bruno - 7
Carrie Ann thinks David is a leading man and doesn't know it. She thinks his problem is he thinks too much and doesn't believe he's sexy.
David and Kym
David's goal is to show the judges he can really dance. He's so dedicated I'd like to see him show the judges, too. I'm never quite sure, given how hard he seems to work in rehearsal, why his performances are always a little disappointing.
This seemed kind of fierce. Nice! The movement is still off, though. It doesn't feel like he and Kym are in synch.
Len thought it had a great '80s feel and he thought it was fantastic. Bruno thought it was a tango with a rebel yell. Carrie Ann thinks he needs to work on his musicality.
Carrie Ann - 8 Len - 9 Bruno - 8
Um, no judge advice for Ricki. I guess, seeing how well she's done for the last few weeks, no one thought she needed it. Or, more likely, the show was running long.
Ricki and Derek
Some whining from Ricki. I can't do it! She has to stop that before every member of the audience decides that, no matter how well she dances, she's too annoying to be voted for. She shows Derek that she still knows the Roger Rabbit. He thinks they should add this to their... foxtrot? Is he on crack? John Waters drops by to tell her she's doing great.
Aack, back fat! Bad prom dress! What the hell was that? It wasn't really a dance, but kind of a spastic combination of disparate ideas. What a mess. She should have never shown Derek her Roger Rabbit.
Bruno says she went off rhythm with the Running Man and the Roger Rabbit. Carrie Ann thought it was a bad move to toss those in, but she thinks Rick and Derek are a great team. Len doesn't want funk in his foxtrot. Still, it wasn't her worst dance.
Carrie Ann - 8 Len - 8 Bruno - 8
So, yes, Ricki blew it. I'm not sure if it's enough to get her sent home, but given that Chynna was cut, anything is possible. At the top we have J.R. and Karina and at the bottom we have Carson and Anna. I'm wondering if we're going to see some of the weaker dancers start to get the boot now that we're so far into the competition -- usually voters start to lean toward the best dancers over personality at some point. But I'll still be a little sorry if Carson or Chaz get the boot. Nancy? Not so much. She'd probably be happier dancing at a retirement village anyway.
Do you think Ricki made a mistake in showing Derek her Roger Rabbit? Which couple should get the boot? And do you think voters are motivated by dance or personality?

Udonis Haslem: Standing Tall for the Kids
On an excruciatingly hot Saturday afternoon, the pool deck at Duffy's Sports Grill looks uncharacteristically young. Children have invaded the North Miami Beach restaurant, ready to face off against a six-foot-eight, 235-pound behemoth in a game of pick-up pool basketball.
Their 31-year-old opponent has the genetic makeup of a first-class NBA power forward and a five-year, $20 million contract to back it up. But above all, Udonis Haslem is an incredibly generous philanthropist.
"This particular event is more fun-loving," Haslem says. "I'm gonna get in the pool and play some basketball with the kids."
The afternoon pool party at Duffy's is just one of several events Haslem hosts each year to benefit the Udonis Haslem Children's Foundation, a nonprofit organization intended to promote youth development and self-confidence.
"My foundation is strictly family-oriented," he says. "I believe every kid deserves the opportunity to be successful, and sometimes they just need somebody to point them in the right direction and give them a little help.
"There are so many trials and tribulations that youths are facing in the streets, and unfortunately the family foundation is not there. I surround myself with family, and I show these kids a family environment."
Helping those in need is nothing new for the Miami Heat star. "I had a close family friend who passed," he says. "She had three kids, and I sponsored them with school uniforms, bookbags, and school supplies. Then gradually I started taking care of underprivileged families at my mother's church, and my stepmother's church. It only made sense to start a foundation."
Haslem credits much of his success on and off the court to his family. "There's no way without family that I'm in this position today." In fact, many of his relatives and close family friends handle the day-to-day operations of the foundation.
"Overall I think the foundation has been a success," he says. "We've been able to help people in a lot of different ways."

During the holidays last year, Udonis Haslem Children's Foundation helped feed 600 families around Miami-Dade County, and at the start of this school year, the organization provided underprivileged children with everything from school supplies to haircuts.
"I've been blessed, and that's why it's only right for me to give back," Haslem says.
Next April, Haslem will be inducted into the University of Florida Athletic Hall of Fame, an achievement he says is still soaking in.
"It's a tremendous accomplishment, and I'm very thankful they chose me."
How could they not? Miami-born, UF-educated Udonis Haslem is a class act, and we're damn proud to have him in our city.

May 1, 2010
BAINBRIDGE, Ga. - The LaGrange College team of Torre Pike and Ryan Wakenigg won the National Guard FLW College Fishing Southeast Division on Lake Seminole Saturday with six bass weighing 24 pounds, 4 ounces. The victory earned the team $10,000 to be split evenly between the university and the university's bass-fishing club. The win also helped them advance to the Southeast Division Regional Championship where they could ultimately win a Ranger 177TR with a 90-horsepower engine wrapped in school colors for their school's bass club and $25,000 for the school they represent.
"We were just hoping to make the top-5 and beat Auburn," said Pike, a freshman History major. "My home lake is Guntersville so I am used to grass fishing and had a lot of confidence coming in to this tournament."
The team from LaGrange dominated the tournament and won by 10 pounds over their closest competitor, the recently crowned National Champions from the University of Florida. The team fished grass beds with spinnerbaits and baby brush hogs. They were expecting a slow bite so buckled down and fished the same area all day long using slow retrievals to thoroughly comb the area.
"This is insane!" said Wakenigg, a freshman Business major. "I can't wait to get my jersey at regionals! It was pretty intimidating seeing the University of Florida drive up in their boat and truck, I said to Torre, that's what we need.
"We just had great day today; I never dreamed we would win this tournament by so much. I am not used to fishing in grass, but Torre really helped me out and one fish was bigger than the next. After last night's rain we were expecting a good top water bite, but that didn't happen. We were very fortunate to find an area that was loaded with big hawgs."
Florida Gators continue to roll
Fresh off their victory at the 2010 FLW College Fishing National Championship, University of Florida teammates Jake Gipson and Matthew Wercinski recorded a second-place finish at the FLW College Fishing Southeast Division qualifier at Lake Seminole.
The team boated a stringer weighing 14 pounds, 4 ounces to take home $5,000 in scholarships.
Best of the rest
Kennesaw State University teammates Jake Akin and Thomas Frink finished in third place at the National Guard FLW College Fishing qualifier at Lake Seminole after landing a total catch weighing 12 pounds, 14 ounces.
Middle Tennessee State team members Nolen Spencer and Tyler Barnes grabbed fourth place overall at the National Guard FLW College Fishing qualifier at Lake Seminole after netting a total catch weighing 12 pounds, 12 ounces.
Florida Gulf Coast teammates Drew Underwood and Garrett Farmer rounded out the top-five team finishers at the National Guard FLW College Fishing qualifier at Lake Seminole after recording a total catch weighing 11 pounds, 3 ounces.
The next National Guard FLW College Southeast Division tournament is scheduled for Sept. 18, at Lake Chickamauga in Hixson, Tenn. College Fishing is free to enter, boats and drivers are provided by FLW Outdoors and all collegiate teams receive a travel allowance. The top five teams in each qualifying event advance to one of five televised three-day National Guard FLW College Fishing Regional Championships.
The top five teams from each regional championship will advance to the National Guard FLW College Fishing National Championship. The National Championship is a three-day televised event hosting the top five teams from each regional, 25 total teams. Teams will be provided jerseys and wrapped Ranger boats towed by Chevy trucks for this competition.

30 hand picked films. A new one every day
In the Post-War Berlin, an American private helps a lost Czech boy to find his mother.
Oscar winning script that showed so much empathy for the displaced orphans following WWII following the plight of a near mute polish lad and the american g.i. who takes him under wing. What could have easily been overly sentimental or mawkish winds up quite moving under the guidance of Zinnemann. Shot just three years after the europeon part of the war ended and released in '48. 65 years later stands up well.
You know the plot before it happens but it is still very touching because of the way it is handled. The performances by Clift, Aline MacMahon, Jarmila Novotna and Ivan Jandl under Zinnemann's direction are perfection.

Arizona Cardinals
Some good, more bad in Ryan Lindley's debut as Arizona Cardinals starter
Ryan Lindley entered his postgame press conference – his first as a starting quarterback – not dressed like, well, a starting quarterback.
Wearing a black San Diego State polo and black Chuck Taylor shoes, the rookie talked about his effort, which saw him complete 31-of-52 passes for 312 yards and four interceptions in Arizona's 31-17 loss to the Rams Sunday in Glendale.
Two of the interceptions were returned for touchdowns by Rams corner Janoris Jenkins.
Lindley, who said a QB has to just "roll with the punches" and keep fighting, said he felt like he got knocked around in this one.
"I think I punched myself pretty good today a little bit, but yeah, I mean it obviously wasn't the outcome, wasn't the start I wanted, we wanted," the rookie said.
"There's not much I can do right now to take any of those back."
Knowing that, Lindley said part of the job is not getting flustered out on the field.
"I think as a quarterback you've got to stay even keel, so I thought for the most part I tried not to get too down on the bad plays we made," the rookie said. "I tried not to get too high, too satisfied on the good stuff we did, because there was a little bit of both."
Indeed, Lindley's day wasn't all bad. He led the Cardinals to a pair of touchdown drives in the first half, and the QB did a good job spreading the ball around, completing passes to six different receivers.
However, the 23-year-old looked like a rookie which, really, makes sense.
"He's a rookie, he hasn't played a lot, but he's got to learn from this," Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhunt said.
Part of Lindley's issues may be attributed to a desire to get the ball to Larry Fitzgerald. The Pro Bowler was open on quite a few plays, but Lindley was only able to connect with him three times for a total of 31 yards. Three passes intended for the receiver were intercepted.
Lindley said two of the interceptions were mental mistakes (the third bounced off Fitzgerald's hands), and that he can't really explain it any better than that right now.
"Larry is doing the right thing," he said. "I'm just off a little bit on something, rushing something, not trusting what I'm seeing out there."
Improvement in those areas will come in time, as the more Lindley plays the more comfortable he will get not only with the speed of the game, but with everything he is being asked to do.
"Ryan is working his tail off," Fitzgerald said. "He's a rookie. He's giving it everything he has.
"We have to go out there and do a better job of helping him have success."

extremely difficult to read html in a text reader/ editor. What a

About 2:30, I arrived downtown and saw the new tiercel land on the old restaurant portion of the Midtown building.
He preened.
I left him there, with Mariah on the east side of the building, and joined other watchers in the Frontier parking lot on Court Street. Soon, both falcons flew off toward the southwest, and did not return. I decided to visit a spot in Brighton, where falcons had been spotted.
As I arrived there, this bird flew overhead, circling the building. I thought to myself, "Self, this looks like a first-year bird, not an adult. Hm!"
Drove around to the back of the building, and there was the female.
She took off, and soared overhead.
The smaller tiercel flew past, following the female. Obviously a bird in juvenal plumage, and it looked like a yellow band on his right leg...
Here's the female again.
(The next few pictures were digiscoped.) The young tiercel landed on the back of the building, on a large air vent...
and exposed his left leg as he preened.
Yes! A readable band in this pic - it's Zephyr! Last year's little Z-man is home!
He stayed on the air vent for quite a while.
Here's a short video of Zephyr. He called to the female every so often.
(Back to shots from the Canon)
On alert
The female soared overhead again.
The she headed out, apparently on a hunt. Here, she displays her bands. No chance of an ID, though.
Zephyr followed, hurrying to catch up.
He soared a bit.
As he followed the female, his yellow band was apparent again. Off he went, in pursuit of his lady. Both birds flew northeast, and did not return. What a thrill to be able to identify one of the birds we all watched grow and fledge last year.

My husband developed anxiety when he was 60 years old. It has had a major effect on our marriage and life. He is making irresponsible decisions regarding our home and assets out of fear of death. He wants to sell everything and spend the money after 40 years of working to get to where we are. It is very difficult to cope. His anxiety is causing depression not only for myself but for our ten year old disabled son. He is taking meds but they seem to be of little help. He is up all night and paces. I really worry that something more then anxiety is happening here. It is ongoing and does not let up. There is no real break or attacks. It seems to be constant with little let up.
Comment from: wanna be normal, 19-24 Female (Patient) Published: March 30
I am 23 years old; I have suffered from anxiety for about 8 years now I was always able to get through the attacks and nerves until about 2 months ago. I seem to be afraid of a lot of things but the biggest is riding in a car. I was doing good had my job for 4 years but to months ago my car broke down and I got a new one. I have ridden in my car twice the last 2 months, I quit my job. I wanted to work it out myself but I fear that I can't. I am currently looking for other means of help and medication. I also have some other medical disorders and I feel my body wearing down fast with my anxiety.
Comment from: Taylor, 13-18 Female (Patient) Published: March 01
I am eighteen. I have been suffering from what I believe is anxiety/panic attacks. I have had attacks ever since I was 12. I have a number of symptoms. I feel as if my family doesn't understand, I feel alone. They tell me it's all in my head. I have had attacks at school, when I have been out with friends and at work. I physically get extremely sick and yet they still tell me it's all in my head. Hopefully I can get the help and medication needed so I can lead what normal life I have.
Comment from: Mary, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: March 01
I have been on antidepressants for more than 20 years. They have saved my life. Recently, after having a hysterectomy with removal of ovaries, I started developing panic attacks. It was horrible. I switched from Lexapro to Paxil; It made a huge difference and has definitely improved my quality of life. The panic attacks are virtually undetectable. For those who are scared to get help-please don't be. Your gp can prescribe anti-anxiety meds or a psychiatrist. Perhaps counseling may benefit you as well.
Comment from: Chelle2, 35-44 Female (Patient) Published: February 24
Went through a health scare and still don't know if it was kidney stones or gallstones. I couldn't eat for a month and my stomach is still upset. I wake up in a panicked state and pray that intense pain will never happen again. I have dealt with anxiety off and on for years, but this has been the worst experience ever. I've gone to the hospital three times and each time I was assured nothing is wrong, but I just can't shake it which I can usually do with a few days or a week of taking Xanax. I want to go back to feeling like myself. I know what I need to do, I need to go see a psychologist and work it out not only for myself, but for the good of my family.
Comment from: Ariana F, 13-18 Female (Patient) Published: November 21
I'm 15 years old. I just recently started to have anxiety/ anxiety attacks. I feel like I can't breathe, etc. I know this isn't who I am I want to be HAPPY, going to school, and just go back to where I was two months ago. This is all just new and scary to me. I can't wait to go to counseling to see if that helps!? I really would like to get over this anxiety without medication because of the side effects. All my family tells me it's going to be fine, and I know it is, it's just going to take time. I just need to think positive and have faith!
Comment from: sallyy101, 13-18 Female (Patient) Published: October 11
I'm only 17, and was told I have anxiety at the start of this year. For a while I thought I had it but was scared to tell anyone because my best friend also has anxiety, i thought people would think that I'm looking for attention. I find it hard to explain my anxiety to people. It physically makes me sick and I feel as if I can't breathe. I get this because I'm scared of so many things. I can't get into a car without thinking about having an accident; germs being everywhere, small or big changes in my life also cause them to happen. I haven't seen anyone about it yet. I'm too scared of what they will say and think of me. But now looking at what everyone has said has encouraged me to finally see someone.

What is the value of freckles?
Some people like their freckles, while others may be more bothered by their appearance. The cosmetic improvement of the skin is a frequent request among people with freckles. On the other hand, freckles are desirable by some people who like the special character or uniqueness these give them.
Freckles can have their value. One is in poetry. For example, without freckles, Oliver Wendell Holmes (1809-1894), the American physician, professor, and man of letters, could not have written:
His home! the Western giant smiles,
And twirls the spotty globe to find it;
This little speck, the British Isles? 'Tis but a freckle, never mind it.

As the deadline for the Senate super committee draws nearer two new studies highlight what's at stake. First new census data shows that 20 million people now live in deep poverty - a record 35-year high. This means that one in 15 Americans struggle for the basic necessities of life: food, shelter, water.
Meanwhile, according to Citizens for Tax Justice, 30 Fortune 500 corporations paid no taxes for the past three years. On top of that 280 of the most profitable corporations, shelter half of all their profits.
"Deep poverty" is defined as living at 50 percent of the poverty level. Workers living in deep poverty have "an income of $5,570 or less for an individual and $11,157 for a family of four." This amounts to half of the 46 million living below the poverty line.
The growth of poverty extends far and wide, leaving no sections of the country unscathed. Not only are traditional inner-city neighborhoods and rural areas affected - but also increasingly suburban communities. "As a whole, the number of poor in the suburbs who lived in high-poverty neighborhoods rose by 41 percent since 2000, more than double the growth of such city neighborhoods" writes AP.
Today the crisis presents new demographic twists: "As concentrated poverty spreads to new areas, including suburbs, the residents are now more likely to be white, native-born and high school or college graduates - not the conventional image of high-school dropouts or single mothers in inner-city ghettos."
Many now in crisis may never be able to dig themselves out of hole the capitalist economy has put them in.
In the midst of this ever-growing misery, however, corporate America, protected by loopholes and tax codes that favor the super wealthy is doing just fine. The New York Times writes that the 280 companies that sheltered half their profits "faced federal income tax bills equal to 18.5 percent of their profits during the last three years - little more than half the official corporate rate of 35 percent and lower than their competitors in many industrialized countries."
The growth in poverty alongside the refusal of big business to pay taxes is a stark reminder of the legislative choices facing the super committee. Only two roads are possible: either tax the rich to provide short-term stimulus and jobs so that the economy can recover or cut vital lifelines to the ever growing poor.
Incredibly, the GOP-led super committee seems bent on taking the low road. The New York Times says it "is also considering proposals to revamp the tax system, simplifying the corporate structure and possibly lowering corporate rates."
It is this callous and arrogant disregard for growing inequality in the face of corporate profiteering that is fueling the Occupy Movement.
Today the Senate is considering the infrastructure component of the Rebuild America Jobs Act (S.1769). Click here to call you senator.
Only the high road of mass democratic struggle and pressure combined with legislative action can force Congress to act.

Hey, I'm Margie!
San Francisco, California, United States · Member since November 2010
I am a Bay Area native that loves living in SF. San Francisco has so much to offer and is always creating new fun and different things to do. I would be happy to share some of my favorites with you. I love to travel and try to do an international trip every year. Last year I went to New Zealand and this year I am planning a trip to the Grand Caymans.
I am pretty active and outside of work I stay fit through cycling, swimming and regular gym workouts. I get to work early in the morning so I am usually gone before any guests may get up. I am also out of the house most of the day on the weekends, enjoying all that the city has to offer.

Prof Hayne yesterday singled out the Government for failing
to properly fund universities, while praising Labour's
tertiary education policy, which included the promise of
extra cash.
Prof Hayne's praise comes after Labour released its tertiary
education policy yesterday, promising to reverse the
abolition of student allowances for postgraduate students and
get rid of proposed changes to university councils.
Labour's Tertiary Education spokeswoman, Maryan Street, also
said tertiary institutions would ''get their share'' of the
$1 billion per year it had promised to set aside to keep up
with ''cost of living increases'' in the public services.
Tertiary Education Minister Steven Joyce struck back at both
Prof Hayne and Labour yesterday, saying universities had been
well funded during the global financial crisis.
Prof Hayne, as Universities New Zealand acting chairwoman and
as Otago University vice-chancellor, welcomed Labour's
promise of increased funding.
''Over the past decade, university funding has only increased
at about half the rate of inflation, while the cost of
providing an education has increased at nearly double the
rate of inflation.
''The education sector has partially offset this funding gap
by cutting costs and growing international student numbers.
''But all the easy gains have been realised and, without more
funding, the only way to keep balancing the books in future
is going to be by dropping quality,'' she said.
Prof Hayne said Universities New Zealand was also pleased
Labour had committed to not going ahead with proposed changes
to the size and make-up of university councils.
Mr Joyce strongly disputed Prof Hayne's suggestion quality
would drop if the Government did not increase funding.
''I just think that is completely incorrect. We have
increased funding over the last five years to universities by
18.6% ... and actually, they have done very very well,
compared to most other organisations through the global
financial crisis.
''Of course I've never yet met a vice-chancellor who doesn't
want more money, but I actually think taxpayers have actually
been very supportive [of universities].
''I think Harlene has just got the old 'give me some money'
sign out.''
He also accused Labour of not costing its tertiary education
policies, adding it would be a case of ''back to the future''
when it came to the student loan ''blow-out''.

German earns new Brentford deal
Striker Antonio German, who scored Brentford's vital equaliser at PNE this season, has earnt himself a new one year academy deal. German also impressed during a recent loan spell at Gillingham where he scored one goal in five games before being recalled to Griffin Park.
Fellow attacker Luke Norris and defender Aaron Pierre have also been offered one year deals whilst midfielder Charlie Adams, who made a fleeting appearance as a sub at Carlisle United, has been given a two year deal.
They should be joined by left sided defender Jack Uttridge who has been offered one year terms after impressing during a recent spell at the club after signing from Histon.
Leon Redwood – who toured to Germany with the first team last summer – and Sam Griffiths will be allowed to leave for pastures new this summer, as will young keeper James Bransgrove who joined from Waltham Abbey in October.
Beesotted would like to wish all the very best of luck for their futures, either at Griffin Park or elsewhere.

Spy in Chancery
Edward I of England and Philip IV of France are at war. Philip, by devious means, has managed to seize control of the English duchy of Aquitaine in France, and is now determined to crush Edward. King Edward suspects that his enemy is being aided by a spy in the English court and commissions his chancery clerk, Hugh Corbett, to trace and, if possible, destroy the traitor. Corbett's mission brings him into danger on both land and at sea, and takes him to Paris, and its dangerous underworld, and then to hostile Wales. Unwillingly he is drawn into the murky undercurrents of international politics in the last decade of the thirteenth century. And the spy will stop at nothing, not even murder, to keep his identity secret. The third novel in Paul Doherty's Hugh Corbett series.

One of the finer comforts in life is having a well-stocked freezer. Before our family became gluten free, I regularly bought packaged frozen lasagna, pizza, and hot pockets (mmm, hot pockets) to pop in the oven on a busy weekday night when I forgot to plug in the slow cooker.
This really isn't a possibility now: not only is packaged gluten free food terribly expensive, I'm just not comfortable feeding the family manufactured food on a regular basis.
So I've combined two of my favorite loves into one completely awesome package: Slow Cooker TV Dinners.
(or you can go the environmentally-friendly route and use Tupperware!)
One of the easiest ways to stock your freezer is to cook large batches of food, and freeze half of it. Clearly label and date the food, and then serve it again a few weeks later.
My family will ALWAYS eat the following things--- no matter how often I serve it:
Instead of saving the leftovers for the next day, I freeze them to pull out later in the month. The food is already cooked-- so I thaw overnight in the refrigerator and then microwave or heat on the stovetop. I don't find the slow cooker all that useful to reheat leftovers.
Another way to successfully stock your freezer is to assemble freezer bags with raw meat, vegetables, sauce, and spices. I like to buy my meat in bulk, and then I simply put the ingredients needed for a specific recipe into a freezer bag and clearly label the outside with a magic marker. I then pull the frozen bag out the night before to thaw in the refrigerator. In the morning, I dump the food into my slow cooker and cook according to the recipe's directions (I'd suggest writing that on the bag, too).
It's recommended to thaw the food overnight, and not just put a block of ice into your slow cooker in the morning. In general, it's fine to cook with frozen meat, vegetables, etc., but the other ingredients should be room temperature, and the stoneware should always be room-temp before being plugged in. You can read more about this on Crock-Pot's official website.
Read through the ingredients and directions on each recipe-- if it makes more sense to add chicken broth, etc. in the morning, do so, and if I've got directions to add something right before serving, follow those guidelines--- don't just dump everything into the bag if it doesn't seem appropriate. :-0
10 Chicken candidates for Slow Cooker TV Dinners:
brown sugar chicken, honey garlic chicken, margarita chicken, chicken adobo, cream cheese chicken, applesauce chicken, lazy chicken, green pepper chicken, apricot chicken, Vietnamese chicken
10 Beef candidates for Slow Cooker TV Dinners:
super simple cranberry roast, 3-packet pot roast, sweet mustard roast, ropa vieja, Italian beef, pomegranate beef, Azorean beef stew, simple Thai beef, Korean ribs, easy fajitas
10 Pork candidates for Slow Cooker TV Dinners:
teriyaki and apricot pork chops, peanutbutter pork, rootbeer pulled pork, cranberry pork roast, pulled pork with sauerkraut, peking pork chops, hirino psito, carnitas, pineapple pork, apple cinnamon pork roast
my kids will also eat the following fish dishes (ooh, Dr. Seuss!) twice a month:
I hope this helps a bit with your meal planning!
P.S.: some of the photos in these recipes are HORRENDOUS-- they were taken before I (somewhat) knew what I was doing with food photography. If you make a recipe of mine and take a better picture, send it my way and I'll give you full credit.
P.P.S.: if you would prefer an itemized meal plan with a full grocery list, I have crockpot meal plans available, here.

Two years in the making, the sandpit and play area was
officially opened on Friday with a karakia.
The new sandpit boasts a water feature which pumps collected
rain water around the sandpit and into an area the children
can play in.
Head teacher Tania Barker said raising the funds had been
hard work - but that the finished product showed the effort
was justified.
"We could never have done it with out everyone's help, from
the architects to the parents who ran the sausage sizzles and
the quiz nights." Sand and water were very important in the
development of children, and the sandpit would be a vital
part of the learning environment, she said.
The underground pipes and the water pump were the largest
expense of the souped-up pit.
"Making sure everything complied with regulations took a bit
of time and effort," she said.
"It was absolutely worth it, though."

One found dead in burning Hardwick homeJuly 02,2013
One found dead in burning home
HARDWICK Police and fire investigators are looking into the death of an unidentified person whose body was found in a burning house Monday afternoon in Hardwick, according to Vermont State Police.
Police withheld details about the person, pending an autopsy scheduled for today.
State police said Hardwick firefighters noticed smoke coming from an area of the town and found a mobile home burning on Terrace Hill Road at about 1:30 p.m.
While putting out the flames, firefighters forced their way into the home and found the person dead inside, according to state police.
The victim was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.
Because of the circumstances, the Hardwick Fire Department requested an investigation into the fires origin and cause. Members of the Vermont State Police Fire Investigation Unit and investigators with the Division of Fire Safety carried out that probe.
The Hardwick Police Department also went to the scene and led the death investigation.
The body was taken to the office of the chief medical examiner in Burlington, where the autopsy scheduled for this morning is expected to identify the body.
State police said the home is a total loss with an approximate value of $30,000. Besides the death, no injuries were reported.
Police said more information would be released today after the autopsy.MORE IN This Just InCASTLETON Rutland Post 31 pitcher Andy Kenosh called it mojo.

I have it set so that guests and registered users can vote (and view results).
When logged in, all works fine.
When logged out, the View Results text link appears on the left, directly beneath the Vote Button and the link doesn't work. You cannot vote also. It is like it doesn't allow you to vote/view results as a guest.... but the guest user is left thinking there is an error because there is no message to say that 'You must be registered user to engage in our poll'. In any case, I have it set for both guests and registered users.

The Limits of Power
The End of American Exceptionalism
Andrew J. Bacevich
Metropolitan Books, $24, 224 pp.
If it is true that, in the words of the military historian Correlli Barnett, "war is the great auditor of institutions," then we Americans have more to worry about than our 401(k)s. The Iraq war's bloody audit has revealed institutional flaws that have been consistently overlooked or concealed by those who should have been keeping an eye on the balance sheet. And while it is surely right to blame the Bush administration's miscalculations, willful illusions, and mendacity for these disasters, the Democratic opposition has persistently failed to provide meaningful alternatives, reasoned criticism, or even well-informed debate. Even now, with the war in its fifth year, many political leaders take refuge in inflated claims about the triumphs of the "surge," while others concentrate on what we should have done in the past rather than on the difficult choices that confront us in the present. Enabling these failures of intellect and will is the indifference of a public that has been largely untouched by the war's costs, which have been shifted to future generations, or, more immediately, to a relatively small group of professional warriors and their loved ones. About the skill and courage of these troops there is no question, but their leadership has often been inept, their political mission ill-defined.
No one has described the deep roots of these political and military difficulties more eloquently than Andrew J. Bacevich,...

NEW GARDEN Ś The 7th annual Chester County Hospital Polo Cup fundraiser featured not only horses and hats, but also mothers and daughters.
Tucked into the hills of the Brandywine Valley, the polo club, founded in 1950, was an apt host for the event, reflective of the areaÆs tradition. With the areaÆs vivid green landscape playing host to ōthe sport of kings,ö parents, children, and local polo enthusiasts enjoyed a day in the sun to support the hospitalÆs efforts.
According to Heather Pastino, president of the Turks Head Auxiliary at the Brandywine Polo Club, in previous years the money raised by the polo cup was earmarked for the ōGift of Time,ö which would benefit the hospitalÆs emergency room services. This year the cup, which was organized by the Turks Head Auxiliary at the Brandywine Polo Club, fundraised for the hospitalÆs Prenatal Clinic.
ōThis is the first year we were able to pick a separate cause within the parameters of the hospital,ö Pastino said. ōIt felt good that we were a group of women (organizing) an event for women who wouldnÆt otherwise get healthcare.ö
The clinic, which was established about 30 years ago, provides care for mothers and their children who are without health care insurance.
ōWeÆre all young mothers so we really wanted to put our efforts into something that was really a cause that we could, you know, all really very much relate to,ö said Amanda Noeldechen, this yearÆs Polo Cup chairwoman. The committee involved about 20 women from the auxiliary club. ōItÆs a great organization.ö
The focus on family extended onto the grounds as well, with special ticket sales offering supporters the chance to host tailgate tents at all-ages event so that families could enjoy the day together, featuring face painting and a moon bounce for the children, while older attendants of the event were also able to enjoy a Victory Beer Garden, food and drinks from vendors, compete in the ōHats Off to Healthö event, watch the inter-club polo match, and participate in the traditional raffle and silent auction.
ōThis event is just great for the kids,ö Noel said. ōItÆs a very safe, friendly, happy environment to be out with your family because itÆs hard when youÆre a parent to try to figure what to do with your kids on some day. This is just something great. TheyÆre getting exposed to something they donÆt see everyday and it goes to such an important cause in our community and it really supports the hospital in such a wonderful way.ö
According to Noeldechen, her friendÆs daughters were excited for the dayÆs hat contest, preparing and primping their festive or floral accessories for a unique event.
The ōHats Off to Healthö contest featured the several women and girls who arrived with festive caps, with one woman selected for ōmost creativeö and another for ōbest ensemble,ö plus two junior miss winners, Talea Wise, 9, and Maggie Wise, 8.
Reflecting the eventÆs spirit of tradition and giving, Talea was able to boast that her winning hat was handed down to her from a previous winner. Maggie was equally awarded for her initiative in creating her own.
ōI bought a hat at Wal-Mart and just stuck flowers in it,ö Maggie said, also admitting she had received help from her mother, Alexa.
According to Noeldechen, funds are generated by sponsors purchasing tent space during the event, the silent auction, and ticket sales for the day.
The Chester County Hospital and Health system includes locations in West Chester, Exton, Lionville, West Goshen, New Garden, Jennersville, and Kennett Square.

Dear C.L., I do make frittatas often. Made this recipe for tiffin yesterday and got an update from DH that he loved it. I added minced roast beef that I had made the previous night and some chopped green chillies and coriander leaves instead of the chives(was not avlbl in the supermarket) and cheddar cheese instead of the gruyere cheese (never used it it is avlbl they say but never seen it myself) and followed the rest of the instructions very religiously. (I did keep some for DS and meself too for b'fast and we gave it a thumbs up too. Fay
Wonderful brunch! I left out the vegetable oil and used only butter. I washed the spinach and leaving some moisture put it in a microwavable bowl and microwaved for 45 seconds, drained and chopped before adding to the egg mixture. Instead of whipping cream I substitited fat free half-and-half. Instead of putting in the oven, I covered the pan with a tight fitting lid and allowed to cook until set. Served this with my whole wheat sourdough biscuits and fresh fruit.

The Austrian calculation argument suggests that inability to engage in economic calculation worsened outcomes in socialist states. We suggest that this is hardly the case. When Austrian assumptions of benevolence are relaxed, inability to engage in economic calculation prevents the non-benevolent planner from fully extracting all available surplus from the citizenry. Consequently, when planners are non-benevolent, calculation ceases to be a relevant argument against the desirability of central planning; its normative force reverses absent benevolent planners.

- Order 2007-6-3 (June 11, 2007): re-selecting Mesaba Aviation Inc., d/b/a Northwest Airlink, to continue to provide subsidized Essential Air Service (EAS) at Fort Dodge and Mason City, Iowa, and Thief River Falls, Minnesota, for the two-year period beginning June 1, 2007. Service will consist of 18 round trips per week at Fort Dodge and Mason City, routed Fort Dodge-Mason City-Minneapolis/St. Paul, at the combined annual subsidy rate of $21,113,865. Service at Thief River Falls will consist of 12 one-stop round trips per week to Minneapolis/St. Paul at the annual subsidy rate of $1,065,639. All service will be provided with 34-seat Saab 340 aircraft as Northwest Airlink.
- Order 2009-4-20 (April 27, 2009): re-selecting Mesaba Aviation, Inc., d/b/a Delta Connection, to continue providing subsidized Essential Air Service (EAS) at Fort Dodge and Mason City, IA, and Thief River Falls, MN, for the two-year period beginning June 1, 2009, at the annual subsidy rates of $2,225,213 for Fort Dodge and Mason City, and $1,230,322 for Thief River Falls.
- Order 2011-6-7 (June 8, 2011): re-selecting Mesaba Aviation, Inc., d/b/a Delta Connection, to provide Essential Air Service (EAS) at Fort Dodge and Mason City, Iowa, at annual subsidy rates of $1,910,995 and $1,017,545 at Mason City, respectively, for the five-month period June 1, 2011, through October 31, 2011.
- Ninety Day Notice (July 15, 2011): of MESABA AVIATION, INC. and PINNACLE AIRLINES, INC. of termination of service at Fort Dodge, IA
- Order 2011-11-30 (November 23, 2011): selecting Great Lakes Aviation, Ltd., to provide Essential Air Service (EAS) at six communities at the following annual subsidy rates: Brainerd, Minnesota, $959,865; Fort Dodge, $1,798,693; Iron Mountain, $1,707,841; Mason City, $1,174,468; Thief River Falls, Minnesota, $1,881,815; and Watertown, $1,710,324, for the two-year period beginning when Great Lakes inaugurates full EAS at all six communities
- Great Lakes Airlines press release (January 27, 2014): Effective February 1, 2014, Great Lakes Airlines will be suspending service from Devils Lake and Jamestown, ND; Fort Dodge and Mason City, IA; Ironwood, MI; and Thief River Falls, MN due to the severe industry-wide pilot shortage and its relative acute impact on Great Lakes.
- Order 2014-1-20 (January 31, 2014): requesting proposals from carriers interested in providing Essential Air Service (EAS) at Fort Dodge and/or Mason City, Iowa. The communities will be without air service effective February 1, 2014.
- Order 2014-4-26 (April 24, 2014): directing interested persons to show cause as to why the Department should not terminate the eligibility ... under the Essential Air Service (EAS) program based on criteria passed by Congress in the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (Public Law No. 112-95). We find that Fort Dodge is within 175 miles of a large or medium hub, Omaha Airport-Eppley Airfield (OMA), a medium hub, and, thus, is subject to the 10-enplanement statutory criterion. We also find that during fiscal year 2013, Fort Dodge generated a total of 5,868 passengers (inbound plus outbound). Consistent with the methodology described above, that results in an average of 9.4 enplanements per day, below the 10-enplanement statutory criterion necessary to remain eligible in the EAS program.

Not only did Sony announce its new virtual reality headset Project Morpheus this week, but it also unveiled a number of big changes headed for the PS4 later this year. From dimming the DualShock 4's light bar to removing always-on HDCP, these updates are going to make the PS4 better than ever, and answer some of the loudest criticisms from the gaming community.
Netflix has announced that it will begin streaming Ultra HD 4K video in 2014, with season two of Netflix's own House of Cards (February 14) being the first and only show (for now) that will be available in 4K quality. With Netflix's huge presence in streaming video (and increasingly production), combined with news that Amazon Studios intends to shoot all of its original shows in in 4K, YouTube's support of 4K, and the rapid march towards affordable 4K TVs, it's now not a case of if 4K will go mainstream — it's just a question of when.
One of the defining features of the Xbox One is that it has an HDMI input socket, allowing you to plug a wide range of media devices into the console. The intended purpose of this HDMI socket is to allow you to watch TV and play games side-by-side on the same screen — but in practice, you can plug just about anything into the Xbox One's HDMI socket, including the PS4. And so that's what we did — on a 65-inch 4K television no less.
When Microsoft first announced that the Xbox One will feature HDMI input and output, one question jumped to mind: Can you run a PS4 through the Xbox One? Microsoft mostly kept its responses to that question vague, but now it seems like it's willing to open up. Not only will the Xbox One work with cable boxes and Xbox 360 signals over HDMI, but any HDMI-compliant device should work just fine out of the box.
Kicking off the IFA consumer electronics show in Berlin, the HDMI Forum has released HDMI 2.0. HDMI 2.0 introduces support for 4K (2160p) at 50 and 60 FPS, 3D playback at 4K resolution, up to 32 audio channels (up from a paltry eight), and some interesting features such as "dynamic auto lip-sync" and the ability to deliver dual video streams to multiple users on the same screen. The max throughput of HDMI 2.0 is a beefy 18Gbps (up from 10Gbps), and you'll be glad to hear that your stupidly expensive HDMI cable will continue to work with the new spec.
Thanks in large part to the Raspberry Pi, cheap little computers continue to be all the rage. Most of the time, though, these little computers aren't products of the big name hardware manufacturers. Dell has apparently taken note of the tiny computer market, and has responded with the oft-rumored Project Ophelia, a $100 Android-powered USB stick PC that plugs into any monitor's HDMI slot.
Google has unveiled Chromecast, a 2-inch HDMI dongle that allows you to stream videos, music, and photos to your TV. All you have to do is plug the Chromecast into your TV, plug in a USB power cable, and then you can "cast" content from your smartphone, tablet, laptop, or PC to your TV. The best bit, though, is the cost: Just $35 (yes, it's only available in the US for now), and you get three months Netflix free, too. In one fell swoop, Google has suddenly become relevant in the living room.
HDMI is a fantastic AV interface, but with it comes a load of copy protection baggage that compromises some functionality. It's no surprise that the Xbox One will only feature HDMI out, but what about the PS4? While there has been some significant confusion about the topic, Sony has confirmed to ExtremeTech that the PS4 will, in fact, feature analog-AV output.
With 4K video and next-generation video codecs well under development, what level of support should we expect from Sony and Microsoft in the next generation? We investigate.
If you want a crisp 1080p signal from your iPhone or iPad, the best bet is to plug it in directly using Apple's own $49 digital AV adapter. Unfortunately, it seems that this latest iteration of the device — designed to work with the new Lightning connector — isn't putting out full 1080p. Even worse, it seems that it is introducing noticeable compression artifacts. Now comes the search for truth amongst all of the internet rage this is kicking up among Apple enthusiasts.

Note: Duchesne finished with a 13-0 record in 2013 and was first in 1A North with a 3-0 record. It beat Rich 14-13 in the 1A championship.
In a sense, there's as little pressure surrounding the Duchesne football program this fall as there has been in quite some time.
Yes, the Eagles are the four-time defending state champions and are riding a state-record 47-game winning streak, thus being the squad every other is eyeing to beat.
But after Duchesne set a new consecutive-wins record last season with its 37th straight, each ensuing victory is just more icing on the cake.
"The pressure was getting the winning streak," said coach Jerry Cowan. "That's come and gone. At this point to be honest, I don't see how there's really any pressure when the record already belongs to us. I think that's come and gone."
To be clear, however, the Eagles' ultimate goals for the 2014 campaign aren't any different than they were prior to any record setting.
"Our goal is to win a championship, and that's always gonna be our goal," Cowan said. "If that means going undefeated, that's great. I think that's very minimal anymore at this point with us. We just want to go out and perform.
"I believe in setting goals and I believe you've got to set realistic goals. With us, we feel like we're in a position with what we've put together program-wise, we feel like that's our goal every year. Until we're in a position where that's unrealistic, that's gonna be our goal."
Entering last year, there were questions surrounding whether or not Duchesne would be able to replace some key pieces from its 2012 title run, but the Eagles passed those tests with flying colors.
Similar questions are back in 2014, as Cowan will have to replace quarterback Trent Roberts and running backs Matt Dye and Matt Muir. Even so, Cowan feels good about his team's chances of making another title run.
"People are maybe thinking things are gonna be a little more challenging and they probably are, but we'll set that as the goal," he said. "If you don't reach your goal, at least you set a high goal to begin with and we'll accept the outcome."
Leading the way for Duchesne in its quest for a fifth-straight state title will be running back Dylan Despain. As a junior a year ago, Despain was the Eagles' leading rusher by 19 yards, but he will be counted on to carry even more of the load in 2014.
"He's got the ability to do it, so we're expecting him to be our team leader on offense and defense," Cowan said of Duchesne's third-leading tackler a year ago. "We feel like we try to be balanced. We don't want to feel like he's our only guy, but we gotta find a way to get him the ball and give him a chance to put up some big numbers."
Cowan may need to rely on Despain and fellow backfield mates Layne Coil and Daniel Hanberg even more because of the quarterback situation. Roberts, Duchesne's fourth-leading rusher and the only signal-caller to throw more than a couple of passes in 2013, is gone, and his replacement isn't quite clear.
In the running for the top quarterback job are juniors Carsen Reinhardt and Wyatt Remund. Reinhardt has quarterbacking experience, having been the starter of the junior varsity team a year ago, while Remund was the Eagles' tight end in 2013. The pair exited camp in late July neck-and-neck for the job.
"I felt like we went into camp hoping we'd have an easy decision, but both guys really did a great job," Cowan said.
