Dr. Michael J. Balick (Ethnobotany) – USAExpand
For more than three decades, Dr. Michael Balick has studied the relationship between plants and people (the field known as ethnobotany) and floristics (the study of botanical diversity within a specific region). Most of his research is in remote regions of the tropics, where he works with indigenous cultures to document plant diversity, knowledge of its traditional utilization, and evaluation of the potential of botanical resources for broader application and use, all while ensuring, through legal mechanisms, that benefits from such work are shared with local communities. His career has focused on traditional uses of plants—for food, medicines, fiber, personal care, etc.—in areas that have included the Amazon, Central America, Asia, the Middle East, and most recently the tropical island nations of Micronesia in the Western Pacific Ocean. He is recognized internationally as an expert in the use of plants and plant compounds for promoting health and wellness.
In his explorations of the diversity and uses of the plant kingdom and its conservation, Dr. Balick has led or participated in over 70 scientific expeditions, authored over 150 scientific papers in peer-reviewed journals, and authored or edited 20 scientific and general interest books and monographs. He received his Ph.D. degree in Biology from Harvard University and was a student of Professor Richard Evans Schultes, the legendary Amazonian ethnobotanist who is considered the "father" of modern ethnobotany.
Dr. Balick has been the recipient of numerous awards and honors in recognition of his accomplishments, including the Distinguished Economic Botanist Award of the Society for Economic Botany; accorded the High Title of Luhk En Kairoir Dolen Katau Nett, Pohnpei, Federated States of Micronesia; the Rachel Carson Award of the Natural Products Association; the prestigious John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship; the International Scientific Cooperation Award of The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and is also a Fellow of the AAAS; a Frontiers of Science Awardee, Society of Cosmetics Chemists; and, the Janaki Ammal Medal for Ethnobotany by the Society of Ethnobotanists.
"Nature's diversity should be a much more important part of all of our lives—from the plants and plant products we consume to promote health and wellness to the amount of time we spend outdoors experiencing the natural world. It is a pleasure for me to be involved with MonaVie and with such a distinguished group of scientists, who believe strongly in the power of plants and are concerned about their conservation as well. Collectively, our goal is to ensure that future generations will also be able to experience nature's many benefits."
Dr. Jun Nishihira (Medicine, Biochemistry) – JapanExpand
During his entire career, Dr. Jun Nishihira has been involved in a broad spectrum of life science research, from molecular biology to protein structure. Dr. Nishihira is currently the Professor of the Hokkaido Information University, Department of Medical Management of Informatics in Japan. He has published more than 200 peer-reviewed papers on a wide variety of basic and clinical medicine, including cytokines, inflammatory bowel diseases, inflammatory skin disorders, and rheumatoid arthritis.
In the last several years, he has incessantly contributed to the establishment of clinical trials for functional foods in Hokkaido, in which he carried out nearly 30 clinical trials in collaboration with the ministry of agriculture and fishery of Japan, the Hokkaido municipal government, the city of Ebetsu, and various food industries. In this role, he has been profoundly involved in the research of nutrition and health and acting as a leading scientist for the development of functional foods, mostly for diabetes, obesity, hypertension, and digestive tract disorders.
After he obtained a medical degree from the Hokkaido University School of Medicine (Sapporo, Japan), Dr. Nishihira did his clinical training at the Hokkaido University hospital, where he specialized in hematology (study of blood and blood diseases) and immunology (study of the immune system). Following his clinical training, he joined a basic medical research company and focused on infectious diseases and immunology at the Bowman Gray School of Medicine at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. After returning to Japan, he obtained a Ph.D. in lipid biochemistry from Hokkaido University and became a lecturer and later an associate professor of the Department of Biochemistry of Hokkaido University's medical school.
"The field of health and food in Asia has rapidly grown during the past decade. Hokkaido, a northern-most island of Japan, is rich in resources of agriculture and fishery. Currently, I have been very much involved in the research and development of value-added functional foods originating in Hokkaido. I feel quite fortunate to be working with MonaVie, an international leading company of functional foods. I am delighted to join MonaVie as a scientific advisor. In this particular role, I will be able to contribute not only to the success of MonaVie in Japan and Asia, but also to the development of Hokkaido."

Microsoft on Tuesday released a free search engine optimization (SEO) tool for Web sites.
The software, called "SEO Toolkit," works with Web sites supported by Microsoft's Internet Information Services Web servers on Windows-based machines. According to a Microsoft spokesperson, "the SEO Toolkit does need to be run on Windows, but it can be pointed at and analyze any site --- Apache or IIS --- regardless of what it is hosted on." It was previously released as a beta back in June.
The SEO Toolkit crawls through local and external Web sites and checks for problems such as broken links, slow-loading pages and invalid markup. It can be used to optimize key words to improve Web site hit counts.
The SEO Toolkit manages site maps files, which search engines use to grab URLs. It can also check which URLs get excluded by search engines via a "robots exclusion module" that checks robots.txt files, according to Microsoft's description. It's designed to optimize Web sites searched by Bing, Google, Yahoo and other search engines.
To install the toolkit, Microsoft's Web Platform Installer needs to be used. The Web Platform Installer centralizes the installation of Microsoft software used for Web sites. It's also a free download available from Microsoft.
The SEO Toolkit will run on Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2008 R2 operating systems. It can be downloaded at this Microsoft Web site, which provides support materials and a demo.

The SEO Tool Kit is a great idea and could be even greater if. If it included a module that would record 1) path, 2) size, 3) finger print of the page, 4) date and time. The resultant tool would then be a security tool of inestimable value. Then any web host could check and see if its pages had been tamper with during the intervening period. If each file within a page as well as the page as a whole were done then I'd say, "WOW."

At today's California State Meet, the boy's pole vault was won by Ryan Shuler at 16'. The height was not exceptional for a state champion, but what is exceptional is that Shuler is only a ninth grader. I don't know for sure, but I expect this would be a freshman class record.
I read one article about Shuler that said he was sixteen years old. That's old for a ninth grader, so I wondered if that was correct, and if it is, why he's still in ninth grade. However, vaulting one's age -- sixteen feet at age sixteen in this case -- is still quite rare.
The first vaulter ever to vault his age was Paul Wilson in 1964, when he vaulted sixteen feet at age sixteen as a high school junior. Since then, others have accomplished this feat also, but I was wondering about:
1) Who is the youngest vaulter ever to vault his age?
2) Who is the oldest vaulter ever to vault his age?
3) Which vaulter has exceeded his age by the largest margin? How much?
I don't know the answers to these questions, so please let me know if you know, or if you know where to find out.

Where Comfort Is by Nancy Dahlberg
Five hours on the road to Seattle
three hours of rain and road-splash rise,
cloud up to meet the cloud I'm driving through
and I arrive in the midst of heavy mist,
surprised there's air to breath in this city
under water. I trek up the hill just off the Av
to my daughter's basement flat, my coat
soaked, glasses dripping just getting to the door.
I crave warmth and light, but her carpet's damp,
the rooms, always dark, now cold and sour
from a water leak last week. We drink black tea
from cracked cups, chew on muffins from a day-old sale,
I sit on the only chair trying not to notice
the pile of unpaid bills, our mutual discomfort.
Then she takes me away to the conservatory
where I photograph her, my youngest child,
at home in a practice room at the grand piano.
Through the background window, the space needle's eye
floats on a dripping branch. There is no distance
here, fog flattens everything but the Mendelsohn
concerto she plays. Her fingers, quick on the keys,
release notes bright as birds. This is how
I know music--watching her body bloom
with melody, her fingers fly over arpeggios,
then stretch for chords that rise above bad weather
the way her whole body lifts in harmony;
clear and warm with light.
What To Do With The Hands by Nancy Dahlberg
I may be getting all A's in school,
Mom, but I feel like my body's not.
I want to take this dance class that meets
Tonight. Drive me there? Please?
Modern Jazz for Teens and Young Adults
requiring three weeks ballet
for those who don't know the positions,
How to move, or what to do
with the hands--like my son. A mother
only wants to help so we went in,
I paid the fee and watched the thirtyish dance
instructor eyeing him,
her hair tight back, her leggy body
smoothed into black wet-look tights,
while I swelled into my support hose
and stacked-heel Naturalizers.
Then she walked--no, stalked--up to Steven
giving off some dusky scent
as she moved right past me to confront
my boy. He straightened up
to his whole proud height while that woman
ran the whole back of her spread-
open hand down the whole front of his
long adolescent torso--
my God, she took her time about it--
then smiled up to him with "Oh,
you've got a wonderful body,"
while he smiled back. He smiled back!

An Aviation Week article printed last week states that Michael Huerta, FAA Administrator, urges more aviation managers to implement safety information sharing systems in general and business aviation. Huerta, who spoke at a NATA Aviation Business round table discussion, said that safety reporting programs like ASAP and ATSAP are critical and can offer important safety information that the industry might be missing out on otherwise.
Huerta also encourages general aviation members to join the Aviation Safety Information Analysis and Sharing (ASIAS) program, an entity that operates on a more broad scale to share safety information across the industry and with the FAA.
And of course, Mr. Huerta probably couldn't escape without offering a NextGen update. According to Huerta, those LPV approaches we've been waiting on will be implemented on all qualified runways by 2016. A localizer performance with vertical guidance (LPV) approach uses a WAAS GPS to give pilots the most precise navigation available, offering approach minimums as low as 200 feet.
LPV approaches will be a big help for those in locations where radio navigation is difficult.

Last year I had a knife confiscated on a flight from Des Moines, Iowa back to my home in New York City. To call it a knife is almost a stretch. It was a blade less than one inch long that was part of an antique money clip I used to organize my bills.
Now it's sitting wherever stuff confiscated by the TSA goes. Along with the toddler sunscreen I lost on the way to San Diego. And the yogurt confiscated on the way back from San Diego.
About that yogurt. It turned out that my hotel's mini-fridge was set a bit too cold. So one container of yogurt, the one set nearest to the back of the fridge, froze solid. The other two containers maintained their intended state of semi-liquidity.
The TSA allowed in the frozen solid yogurt, apparently because it was a solid. They only confiscated the ones that were the usual consistency of yogurt. The Transportation Security Administration official seemed to have been under the impression that whatever terrorist attack I might be able to accomplish with regular yogurt was rendered impossible by the mini-fridge's cold.
All of which is to say: the TSA is insane. I'm sure that there are plenty of sane people employed by the TSA. Perhaps, individually, not a one of them is actually insane. But collectively, when it acts as an organization, it is without a doubt insane. Its rules, prohibitions, procedures bear only a tiny relationship to transportation or security. Although I won't begrudge them the word administration. They certainly seem to be able to administrate.
Perhaps, however, the TSA is coming to its senses. Today Administrator John Pistole announced at an event in Brooklyn that the rules about what you can or cannot fly with are being loosened. Golf clubs, wiffle ball bats, and even small knives will be allowed on board. Pool cues, hockey sticks, and ski poles too.
While this is somewhat of a relief, the reasoning the TSA gives is annoying. They are doing it to confirm to international standards. But if these things can be safely allowed on board in order to conform to international standards, why on earth were they being banned at all. Do we need Swiss Air to tell us what is dangerous?
The truth is that ever since cockpits were locked following the 9/11 attacks, it has become far harder to highjack an airplane with a knife or a golf club. It's not impossible to do with an explosive. But you just aren't going to have much luck when the pilots are locked inside their cockpit and understand that they won't be sparing anyone's life if they open the door under a threat from a terrorist.
Non-frozen yogurt, however, is still a problem. Best freeze it.

Thursday, April 24, 2014
By Christopher S. Rugaber
The Associated Press
(Continued from page 1)
A report from the Federal Reserve on Wednesday offered fresh evidence of the economic impact of the shutdown and debt limit fight. The Fed's report on economic conditions in its 12 banking districts found employers in several districts were reluctant to hire because of uncertainty surrounding budget policies and the new health care law.
Manufacturing growth slowed in the New York region in October, builders were less confident in the housing recovery and growth slowed in four Fed districts. All the reports cited the federal shutdown and impasse over the debt limit as reasons for the declines.
Several companies have also cited the shutdown as a likely drag on sales and earnings. Linear Technology, a semiconductor company, on Tuesday lowered its revenue outlook for the final three months of the year because of the shutdown.
Some analysts think the Fed is now unlikely to slow its monthly bond purchases until well into next year. The Fed has been buying $85 billion a month in Treasury and mortgage bonds to try to keep long-term interest rates low.
The full economic effect of the budget standoff could take a month or more to assess because the release of so much economic data has been delayed. And Drew Matus, an economist at UBS, says that much of the economic data will be distorted by the effect of the shutdown, making it harder to discern underlying trends.
Weekly applications for unemployment benefits, for example, spiked last week, partly because of workers who were temporarily laid off by government contractors and other affected companies. Those figures are collected by the states.
"We're in the dark," says Robert DiClemente, chief U.S. economist at Citigroup. "It's going to be a while until we have good answers to all these questions."

Doing Time
Doing Time intially sounded like a prison blog, an insider view, from a prisoner's perspective. What you actually got was another basic template, plain black background, which I think works really well for site, especially since the writing is what draws you in. There isn't much in the way of "about me", but the links all work and some are quite funny.
The Trashman writes very well. His accounts, whether they be true or not, are very entertaining for the reader and wants to make you read more. For a blog that is fairly new (started July 2004) I believe this is a rare find. Doing Time stands out because it's got the twist that many other blogs are lacking. It's entertainment. Purely.
The purpose of the blog I believe is for the author to tell his humorous events in written form. He does it well. His latest entry Happy Valentines Day definitely puts a smile on your face, it will even elicit a laugh or two. His links to various other pages work, the one to Save Toby had me laughing very hard indeed.
I believe that the Trashman enjoys his blog as much as the reader's like reading it. I've given it a 5 because of the uniqueness of the blog in it's content. There are not many blogs that are both humorous as well as well written, thought out and stand out.
This site was reviewed on 2005-02-16 by purpledaisy.

purpledaisy felt that Doing Time deserved a rating of 5.
I was expecting this blog to be written by a person who was "Doing Time". We have had the homeless blogger, why not the inmate blogger? I thought that this blog would be about daily life and what not. Then I saw that this blog was in the Humor category and considered that it might be different.
The page loads with a header of a man behind bars giving someone the finger. Then there is the nice little quote of "Rehabilitated? Now let me see. You know, I don't have any idea what that means." from the Shawshank Redemption. I got that right away. The site has a black background and white text which is very prison like.
The posts are about things that has happened in The Trashman's life as he remembers them or as were told. They are real stories, with only the guilty names changed. I find it hard to believe that the stories are mostly real, but then again, keeping up this charade would be hard to do.
The posts are about extremely weird and violent things that one would probably never do. Yet they are written with a certain comedic tone to them that you almost have to laugh at the situation rather than gawk at it.
I could go on and on about the posts and stuff, but I don't want to spoil anything for you. I enjoyed this blog from beginning to end and laughed numerous times. The best way I can describe this blog is that this guy is blogging his life as if he was the main character in Grand Theft Auto.

Report: Kyle Shanahan is the root of Redskins problems
Former Washington Post Redskins beat reporter Jason LaCanfora, now with CBS Sports, has a new story out on the Redskins, this one claiming offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan and an inexperienced cadre of coaches around him are the "core of Redskins dysfunction."
Former Redskins TE Chris Cooley, who now works for the team as a game broadcaster and for the Dan Snyder-owned ESPN 980 radio station, attacked La Canfora's story on the air today, saying it was sourced by one former member of the organization who left several years ago. However, that is not accurate. The story does rely in part on former members of the team, but also quotes one current member of the organization and La Canfora spoke to several more currently employed by the Redskins.
According to current and former members of the team's coaching staff, Kyle Shanahan is given carte blanche to run the team and is enabled by his father, head coach Mike Shanahan, in everything. Kyle is also the most well-compensated coach on the team, apart from his father. Kyle is expected to take home $1.4 million in 2014 from Dan Snyder, even though he is very unlikely to be with the team next season.
"Kyle is the head coach, it's just that no one knows he is," said one member of the organization. "He gets whatever he wants. And he has no relationship at all with (quarterback Robert Griffin III). So how could it work?"
As a former member of the organization put it: "Kyle bitches about everything, and then his father has to fix it. He bitches about the food in the cafeteria, he bitches about the field, he bitches about the equipment. He complains and then Mike takes care of it. Kyle is a big problem there. He is not well liked."
Several members of the organization said Kyle Shanahan was a cause of internal strife, surrounding himself with young coaches with inferior experience, and allowing for no checks and balances of outside voices in the offensive coaching rooms.
"This is the NFL, it's not supposed to be a training ground for coaches," said someone who has worked with Kyle Shanahan in Washington. "It's ridiculous. Look at this staff. It sucks. Mike's best buddy is (longtime Shanahan assistant and current linebackers coach Bob Slowik), and Slowik's son is in his second year out of college and he's on the staff. Everyone on the staff is in his first or second year except for Mike and Kyle and Haslett (defensive coordinator Jim Haslett) and Raheem (Morris, the secondary coach), and everyone knows Raheem is there because he is close with Kyle. Those two go way back.
"What Mike has allowed to happen there, with that staff, there is no excuse for. There are guys on that staff who are just not qualified, and it shows up. Have you seen the quarterback develop? Look at (defensive ends Brian) Orakpo and (Ryan) Kerrigan? Are they progressing or regressing? Are you seeing the offensive lineman they drafted making it to the field?' How many players are getting the kind of NFL coaching you'd expect on that staff?"
The Redskins have had a succession of first-time wide receivers coaches on this staff, and the offensive staff has generally been devoid of experience other than Turner. Most of the offensive staff had less than two years of NFL experience before coming to Washington and even in those cases the two years weren't as actual position coaches, but as offensive assistants and low-level help.
Quarterbacks coach Matt LaFleur worked with Kyle Shanahan in Houston and had only two years experience as an "offensive assistant" with the Texans prior to becoming the Redskins QB coach. Similarly, receivers coach Mike McDaniel was a lower-level assistant on the Texans staff before coming to Washington. Tight ends coach Sean McVay's only prior NFL experience to joining Washington came in 2008 as an offensive assistant in Tampa.
LaCanfora goes on to write that "it has long been clear to many people in various corridors of the Redskins' organization that the pair of Mike Shanahan, with his son running the offense, in Washington, has been a doomed combination. Especially within the construct of the lack of other strong voices on the offensive side of the ball, and that nepotism has served to hinder, rather than help, the growth of this franchise and the development of RGIII."
Now, this jibes with some of the stuff I've heard. Some of it is new to me, some of it is not. I did not know about the incident after the Dallas game on Thanksgiving in 2012 [read the story for that tidbit] and that certainly does not reflect well on Kyle or his underlings.
The most worrisome part of all t his is Kyle Shanahan's lack of a relationship with franchise QB Robert Griffin, whom he treats "like a JV quarterback" according to one report. The relationship between the head coach and the franchise QB is the most critical player-coach relationship in the NFL and it has to be done right. We already know that the relationship between Griffin and Mike Shanahan is poisonous. Now we learn that the relationship between Griffin and his offensive coordinator is also poor.
In the end, though, this all comes back to Mike Shanahan. He was given full control of all football decisions on the Washington Redskins and must bear responsibility for them. This is his coaching staff. He hired the players. He coaches the players — or lets his inexperienced and/or overmatched coaching staff coach them. [Remember, Shanahan pulled Jim Haslett off the scrap heap. Haz had been banished from the NFL and was coaching in the miniscule UFL.]
The Redskins are 24-38 under Mike Shanahan. In three of Shanahan's four seasons in Washington the team has lost at least 10 games and will finish in last place in the division three of those four years. He's been a complete failure in Washington and it is time for him, his son and their entire operation to get out of town. I'm sure it will stick in Dan Snyder's craw to have to pay these charlatans off to get them to leave, but let him consider a just punishment for loosing them on Washington's long-suffering football fans in the first place.

I bought Sperzels for my Strat in 1985 when I read Keith Richards was using them. Were always fine. I don't really like these Sperzels. The action varies among the tuners and is not smooth, especially when tuning down. These tuners also made me realize that I don't like locking tuners in general. Now that I have an electric string winder, I prefer the more traditional tuners. I really like the Grover Rotomatics. They also have a finer tuning ratio-- 18:1; rather than the 16:1 of the Sperzels.
i have replaced the tuners in my 2001 MIM strat with satin chrome and boy what a difference. Rarely goes out of tune, easy to adjust, easy to replace strings, no need for string trees and in my opinion looks beautiful. Recommended! I ordered it through regular mail and it arrived in just two and a half weeks great!
Como Riquelme 10. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
very cool tuners. tuning action is a bit rough but they certainly hold the tune very well. no more high E slippage
One of the six has a a gear mesh that's a bit rough, which is surprising, but these things are excellent. The graduated height is fantastic. Never liked string trees, even the roller ones.
I buy this tuner from stewmac more 10 pcs , customer like it
These are my favorite tuners. The cardboard template is a little dinky, but it's accurate. Stewmac makes a jig for drilling a hole to accept the mouting pin. What I do is just eyball it with the cardboard template. Comes out good for me. Good weight, very sturdy, GREAT matte finish, the locking pins have never slipped on me in the 15+ years I've had them on my V. Best. Tuners. Ever.
there are no comments required about the best machines ever. ihave them on 5 guitars right now. really nice price too!
Very nice quality tuners that I have on many guitars. The supplied template is not very good though. You must be very careful drilling the pin hole. My first attempt did not go as planned and I used the template.
ok.... gostei

The purpose of the Journal of Multinational Financial Management is to publish rigorous, original articles dealing with the management of the multinational enterprise. Theoretical, conceptual, and empirical papers providing meaningful insights into the subject areas will be considered.
The following topic areas, although not exhaustive, are representative of the coverage in this Journal.

Special Offer
When you first fall in love, everything
you share produces an adrenaline
rush because its all brand-new.
But, as youve no doubt figured out,
that mind-blowing novelty factor does
inevitably start to dissipate, and you
settle into more of a routine. Thats
when the love buzz is in danger of
being replaced by, well, boredom.
But it doesnt have to turn out that way. Ongoing research shows couples can regain that new-relationship thrill by trying novel activities together. Experiencing new things triggers the release of two brain chemicals, dopamine and norepinephrine the same ones released when youre newly in love, explains Arthur Aron, PhD, social psychologist at Stony Brook University. So get the punch-drunk love high back with these ideas.
Try Kayaking
If you live near a body of water, youre probably able to rent a kayak for a few hours. Its a thrilling tandem activity thatll guarantee some laughs over your attempts at dipping the paddles simultaneously.
Hang with a Different Crew
Instead of always meeting up with the same friends, invite a few acquaintances out for appetizers or brunch. Ask lots of questions about their lives and share details of yours, so you feel like you get to know them better.
Become Margarita Connoisseurs
Challenge yourselves to discover the most absolutely perfect margarita. Once a week, head to a different bar or restaurant in your town, and rate its margaritas together. When you find the yummiest one, invite a big group of pals to join you there and order a couple of pitchers.
Throw Some Punches
Jogging or biking together is okay, but nothing pumps your energy level and gets you two all sweaty-sexy like boxing. Sign up for a session at your gym; you wont be fighting each other just the trainer. Plus, its arousing to watch all that aggression be unleashed.
Go Shopping at a Secondhand Store
Give each other a $20 limit, and try to score some cool clothing finds for the other person, like vintage tee shirts or funky hats.

Zack Greinke Wins Cy Young, KC Star Beefs the Announcement
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed or follow us on Facebook. Thanks for visiting!
Kansas City Royals pitcher Zack Greinke won the American League Cy Young award, and apparently, the Kansas City Star was so excited by the news, they ran two announcements — one saying Greinke won and the other saying Greinke did not. Bonus: both announcements were/are in the same article.
Because they will undoubtedly change their error, we have a screenshot for your enjoyment. The announcement(s) read as follows:
The Royals' Zack Greinke won the American League Cy Young Award. Greinke, who finished 2009 with a 16-8 record, became the third Royal to win the award, determined by a vote of the national media.
In the end, Zach Greinke's league leading ERA wasn't enough. The standout Royals picther [sic] finished second in the voting for the American League Cy Young Award, given to the outstanding pitcher of the year as determined by the national media.
So yeah, in their exuberance, the editors obviously overlooked the double-printing, not to mention the ugly misspelling in the second paragraph. Apparently, the folks at the Star are having quite the party to celebrate Greinke's award, which also represents the lone bright spot of yet another horrific Royals season.
As for the Cy Young award, Greinke had all but three first place votes.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 10, 2013
PRAIRIE RESEARCH INSTITUTE APPOINTS ILLINOIS STATE SCIENTISTS - Legislation establishes additional sources of scientific service to the state
Champaign, III. Prairie Research Institute Founding Executive Director William W. Shilts has appointed seven Illinois State Scientists to fill designations established in the University of Illinois State Scientific Surveys Act signed by Governor Quinn on August 14. The Institute is the home of the Surveys at the U of I.
"These designations are in keeping with a long and successful tradition in Illinois of science in the public interest. The Surveys have been delivering science to decision makers and the public for over 160 years," said Shilts. "These seven Illinois State Scientist designations are another way that the Institute marshals its expertise for the benefit of the state," he added.
State Archaeologist, State Biologist, State Hydrologist, and Pollution Prevention Scientist are new designations. State Climatologist, State Entomologist, and State Geologist have long histories of distinguished service to the state, but they were not in statute. All designations are filled by employees of the Illinois State Scientific Surveys which moved to the U of I in 2008 to form the Prairie Research Institute.
The State Scientists serve as the authoritative spokespersons in their fields for the Surveys, the Institute, and the state. They provide current information on research and scientific inquiries to the public at large, other scientists, industry, and governmental agencies. read more...

Illinois Natural History Survey
Since 1858, the INHS has been the guardian and recorder of the biological resources of Illinois — the State's biological memory. With a staff of over 200 scientists and technicians, it is recognized as the premier natural history survey in the nation.
Illinois State Archaeological Survey
Formed February 1, 2010 as a new Division in the Prairie Research Institute, ISAS investigates, protects, preserves and interprets the rich archaeological heritage of Illinois through ITARP, the ATAM program, education, and outreach to meet long-term public needs. Drawing on more than eighty years of research at the University of Illinois, ISAS documents and preserves cultural resources within the context of sustainable economic development.
Illinois State Geological Survey
The ISGS is a premier State Geological Survey serving the needs of Illinois with earth science information relevant to the State's environmental quality, economic vitality, and public safety. Some 200 scientists and technical support staff conduct basic and applied research in geology, compile geologic maps, and gather and manage the state's geological data.
Illinois State Water Survey
The ISWS has flourished for more than a century by anticipating and responding to new challenges and opportunities to serve the citizens of Illinois. Today, the ISWS continues to demonstrate flexibility and adaptability by developing new programs, while continuing to provide long-standing services upon which Illinoisans have come to rely.
Illinois Sustainable Technology Center
ISTC is a change agency that performs research, spreads awareness,
and facilitates implementation regarding practices, technology and

4250 Fredericksburg Rd, San Antonio, TX | Directions 7820129.486641 -98.547949
Sat-Wed 11am-11pm
Neighborhoods: Central San Antonio, Balcones Heights
This national chain is a household name, thanks to its deep-dish and stuffed-crust pies. – In Short
Kid-friendly eat-in restaurants and small takeout shops alike sport interiors done in the signature red and white with a touch of yellow. Orders are placed at the counter--whether customers choose to stay or go--and pies are baked per request. Pizzas--from the hand-tossed to the twisted crust--dominate the menu, but the restaurant also offers chicken wings, salads and cinnamon bread sticks.
Best pizza coast to coast – Can't say enough about their deep dish pizza. Fresh ingredients, great crust. What more can I say?
Pizza Hut is fine for Cheap Food, not great pizza – If you're hungry and watching your budget pizza hut is a fine place to go. But Pizza Hut and other chains should not be mentioned in the same sentence as mom and pop pizza places. Real pizza is an italian guy in the back twirling the hand-made dough around not a high school kid taking it out of the freezer. You get what you pay for.
PIZZA HUT!?!? – What the h-e-doouble-hockeysticks? Pizza hut is hardly pizza, let alone good pizza. And I think the citysearch people are looking for places unique to San Antonio, not a nationwide mega-chain.
Pizza Hut has good values like the current one about by one pizza get a meduim one for 99 cents. I also love their crust which is soft buttery crust
What are you thinking? – How could anybody vote for a national chain as the best pizza in the area? Especially this particular location? However, after San Antonio has been elected the fattest city, I can better understand why this grease pit is on the list. Just walking into this place causes you to break out. Low grade ingredients, sullen attitudes, horrible selection = crap.

Allan used to work as a teacher and perhaps this is one of the reasons his writing shows such a sharp insight into the hearts and minds of young children. His poems provide vivid glimpses into the colourful life of school: what exactly is it that's hiding in Harrison's desk? Where does Billy McBone's mind get to? And just what did happen to all those scissors? Although his poems are often amusing, he doesn't ignore the more painful side of school as in the poignant monologue 'Slow Reader' or the memory of 'The Boy Without a Name'. Allan also draws on his own Black Country childhood in poems like 'The Match c. 1950' and 'Cemetery Road'. Football is an abiding passion. His choice of poems from Friendly Matches - with many a neat twist or cunning swerve - celebrates the beautiful game.
Allan's recording for the Archive takes in longer narrative poems such as 'Cops and Robbers' with its chorus that's just asking to be joined in with and shorter lyric pieces. He even sings one! Adept at creating his characters' voices, Allan's reading, like his writing, is warm and engaging.
His recording was made on 18 November 2003 at The Audio Workshop, London and was produced by Richard Carrington.

I received this as a sample and was immediately in love with this product. The minute I put it on, I could tell that the tingling feeling was working to help unclog my pores. I have been using it once or twice a week to help clear up my acne and it has been working great to prevent new breakouts while clearing up my cystic acne (not overnight, but faster and with less overall drying than anything ever has before). The smell does not really bother me, but it does have a district smell that may bother some people. I bought the full size product after using the sample for two weeks. I cannot wait to get it in the mail!
I got this to take care of some trouble spots on my chin due to hormonal break-outs. After one use, I noticed eruptions were drying and overall redness was reduced. While I could see the smell bothering some (think medicinal cold cream), I found it refreshing.
I have pretty good skin most of the time, but I have those days where I just need a little help, and that's when I turn to this mask. It is thick and easy to apply, just make sure to shake well. I like to use my mask brush with this for precise application. Removing it is very fun because it contains exfoliants so you can polish your skin while removing it with warm water. Skin feels clean and tight afterwards and looks clear the next day!
Results appear in the days following application as blemishes come to the surface or subside. Immediate tingling sensation upon application but tolerable for sensitive skin. Great also as a spot treatment.
Skin felt clean and revived after use, not stripped or tight. I have sensitive skin and this did not leave it red or irritated. The product has a bit of a medicinal smell to it, but it didn't linger. Make sure to shake well or it will run out of the tube watery, instead of mud-like. It was easy to remove with warm water.

With her two children and relatives by her side, the wife of slain gas station attendant Surinder Singh stood on her front porch in Woodbury and wept openly over the loss of her 40 year old husband.
"Everybody knows us. We've been there for like 13 years. Same place," said Satinder Singh, the victim's brother.
"He's a very polite person, a very nice person. Never hurt anybody," said Balkar Seini, co-owner of the gas station.
The popular Singh was gunned down Sunday night just after 9 p.m. Police say he was shot at least twice at the Garden State Gas Station on North Broad Street next to the Colonial Diner. His brother says Surinder Singh worked here for 13 years. He was a loving father and husband who worked long hours to support his family.
"Very hardworking guy. Never went out all the time on the job," Seini told FOX 29 after reporters gathered outside the family's home, a block from the gas station.
"Why would somebody wait until nine o'clock at night and sit there and want to just kill somebody," asked Dina Cantagallo, a customer at the station.
Monday morning, detectives returned to the scene to dig a stray bullet out of a State Farm Insurance company office across the street from the gas station. There are surveillance cameras here too, but not at the station. Customers were stunned by Singh's murder.
"He was always there for people. He was the nicest guy in the world," Cantagallo said.
"Justice should be served," said customer Brandon Kersey. "They should get the maximum penalty."
As a small memorial for Singh grew at the gas station, his family mourned his death and began preparing for a funeral later this week. Police would not discuss a motive, but Singh's brother and partner said if it was robbery, the gunmen didn't get much.
"No large sums, couple hundred dollars. Not a lot," Satinder Singh said.
"They should be in the jail, not out on the streets," Seini added.
"He's a good guy. I don't think he deserves to lose his life over money. He was making honest money, you know," says Brandon Kersey.
Police are reviewing surveillance video from surrounding businesses looking for video of the killers. They also canvassed the neighborhoods around the gas station looking for clues. Police did recover a bullet from the business across the street from the crime scene.
The Gloucester County Prosecutor's Office said an autopsy would be performed Monday by the Gloucester Co. Medical Examiner.
The victim's brother says there have been break-ins at the store, but no gun-point robberies. The owners now plan to install surveillance cameras at the gas station.
Flames are tearing through a South Jersey forest right now, and this wildfire is only expected to grow.

Two men pleaded innocent to heroin distributionFebruary 08,2013Two men deny heroin charges
BRATTLEBORO Two men pleaded innocent at criminal court in Brattleboro on Thursday for allegedly distributing heroin in the greater Brattleboro area.
Joshua Hartwell, 25, of Brattleboro and Julio Davila, 32, of Holyoke, Mass. were subjects of a three-month investigation by the Vermont Drug Task Force, according to Matt Birmingham of the Narcotics Investigation Unit said. Hartwell and Davila were arrested on Wednesday during a traffic stop on Interstate 91 in Dummerston.
Hartwell and Davila were each charged with selling, trafficking and possession of heroin. Hartwell is being held on $10,000 bail and Davila $100,000 because of an active arrest warrant for unrelated charges, a criminal court clerk said.
Status conferences for Hartwell and Davila have not been determined. The Windham County States Attorney Office is prosecuting this case.MORE IN This Just InStaff Report Full StoryStaff Report Full StoryThe Associated Press Full Story

105 N Churton St, Hillsborough, NC | Directions 2727836.075592 -79.099428
Great Food/ good beer selection. – Try the daily specials on the chalkboard, they are the fresh local items and are generally very good. The staples on the menu like the hamburger and the chicken wings are consistently good. Tuesday nite is wing nite with a dozen wings for the price of six. Always has a rotating selection of new and exciting tap beer, recently featuring the new brews from Mystery Brewing Co. Staff is friendly and hardworking. Keep up the good work; Thanks!
Best Burgers in Hillsborough – The wooden quite simply has the BEST burgers in Hillsborough (if not all of Orange County). The staff are very professional and the patrons are very friendly for the most part. If you want some great food at a good price and some great conversation with some great people. Come on down to The Wooden Nickel.
Amazing Food and Service! – The best comparison for the Wooden Nickel is that it is like the pub in a small English village, only instead of british food it serves amazing American classics with a twist. The BLT, Turkey Club, Garlic Fries, and Burgers are all amazing! They use local (as in within 15-20 miles) produce and meat when they can. The service from the bartenders/servers is really top notch and they rarely forget a name. If you are looking for a great spot to grab some yummy local eats, a good beer and a good time try this Hillsborough favorite. My husband and I love it!
Can't believe what I read.... – Now I realize that everyone has a right to their opinion. I just can't see how some people obtained their opinions. I have been a patron at the WNP for years! I have NEVER had any issues with staff, owner or whatever. To describe the patrons as"Not too family friendly, blue collar, rowdy alcoholic crowd..... makes me chuckle! I suppose I am part of the "Rough Crowd" my teenagers would be so proud of me!
As for bringing Children to the pub, I have for many years done just that. Not once have I had an issue with them being there. Now, on the weekends, as the evening progresses its probably NOT the best time to bring your children to the WNP....but it is after all a BAR and on the weekends, people like to let their hair down and have a good time....as a parent...use your own judgment and if you think its not a good place to have your kids TAKE THEM HOME!
Seriously folks, its a great place to hang out and catch up with old friends! The bartenders are fabulous, and the owner is too!
A Public House – One the many benefits (or drawbacks) of the Internet is the anonymity it affords its users. Anyone with an axe to grind can easily hijack a website to orchestrate personal attacks on someone they feel slighted by. This is nothing new, of course.
I am the aforementioned "Drew" you see mentioned in the one star reviews posted over the last 5 days. Judging by the timing of these reviews, I can guarantee you these originate from the same person. You'll notice the reviews go to great lengths to detail what a crappy bartender I am, how unprofessional I am, and rude, etc. etc. Without mentioned in specific detail WHAT exactly the problem may be, or why someone would spend this much effort to slander an 800 square foot pub, which had much positive feedback over the past 2.5 years (my tenure there).
The person I suspect to be writing these reviews (who will remain anonymous) was asked not to return to our our bar after a series of incidents several weeks ago. Several young women accused the gentleman of groping them while on his way around the bar. After consultation with my co-worker we decided to give him the benefit of the doubt; after all, the bar was crowded and he was here with his Family. However, after his family left, he returned. He threw down a pen underneath a young woman sitting at a table and, under the pretext of retrieving the pen, attempted to look up her skirt. This was observed by a number of individuals who obviously took offense and quickly escorted the gentleman out of the bar. He sped off. When he attempted to return last Friday, June 26, I escorted him out of the bar, explained the situation, and asked him not to return. Of course, much like the Internet, his actions leave room for deniability, but too many coincidences, reported by unrelated patrons, leaves no doubt in my mind.
I encourage people of all types to come to my bar to socialize. I know the names of many of my patron's kids and am just as capable of having a conversation with a 6 year old about Pokemon as I am at whipping up a round of tasty shots. After 10pm, people will probably be loud and the music will get cranked up, and I'll encourage comaraderie because, well, it's a bar. The only thing I ask is that people act in a manner that doesn't offend of disrespect others. If you can't do that, then you'll be warned. And if your actions are particularly egregious you'll be asked not to return, because, really, who wants a pervert in their bar?
Perhaps this gentleman felt TOO comfortable here. Perhaps he felt the casual atmosphere allowed him to take liberties with others' personal space. If I am accused of making people feel comfortable, than I stand guilty as charged.
Not a place to bring kids, or a lady! – What makes this place unique or special is that it's still the only dedicated pub in this small town. Unfortunately, the current management has ruined the place for those of us that identify with the non-rowdy, moderate, civilized crowd. This place attracts just the opposite now days.
If you're looking for a not-too-family-friendly, blue-collar, rowdy, alcoholic (and often, just-over-drinking-age) crowd, then you might be real happy here. Fortunately, there are a couple of very nice restuarant/bars on both sides, so one can still find a more civilized atmosphere to enjoy a drink and a meal right in downtown Hillsborough.
NOT recommended.. – Where to begin.. well, let's see, how about "Drew", the rude and short-tempered bartender/manager? This guy clearly has a lot to learn about professional bartending. The food? Well for pub grub, it's passable, but who wants to eat amongst a crowd of rowdy bikers and unstable barkeeps? The drinks? Just compare their prices with ANY other establishment. Just because it's the only pub in town, doesn't mean it has to gouge it's customers. I understand the WN was once a great little pub - too bad it's best days are apparently behind it.
Awesome local pub! – The Nickel is a great place to hang out and enjoy a cold one. The food is excellent and the fries are to die for. We live in Virginia now, and always look forward to the Wooden Nickel when we're in town.
Great food! Best bar! – Food is varied,fresh and Amazing! Waits are wonderful! Best bar around!!
Even Mr. BadMood loves this place – Great tavern food, and drink. These people are friendly, have my guiness ready, and take great care of me.

I'm looking to fill 2 positions in my kitchen. My restaurant is Bistro Blanc and we are located in Howard County, Maryland.
The best way to describe our place is casual fine dining with an endless amount of wine. We are surrounded by farms, so when it's in season it's on our menu. We thrive on classic technique and cuisine, but also utilize and intertwine a lot of modern methods. A bit of old school meets new. Hours of operation are 7 nights a week and brunch Friday through Sunday.
This is a great place to learn, as we are primarily a "from scratch kitchen". All I ask is that you have creativity, respect and passion for all things food. Experience is a plus, but not necessary, as we are always learning new ways to create fun, interesting foods. I can teach you how to cook, but I can not teach you how to "want" to cook.
