Lokomotion Family Fun Center paves the way for friendly competition and family fun in a multi-attraction complex filled with arcade games, mini golf, laser tag, go-karts, and bumper boats. Feed fistfuls of tokens ($0.25 value each) into a multitude of games to shoot hoops, smack air-hockey pucks, and recklessly race virtual cars without being grounded for hitting the neighbors' mailbox. Take aim at sibling rivalries during black-light laser-tag games or spray down peers in the bumper-boat pool. Thirty-six mini golf holes border an Illinois River tributary, setting a beautiful scene to knock grandma off the top of the family standings. Four different go-kart tracks separate racers by age with single-seat pro-track cars for licensed drivers and double-seated family-track cars that liberate backseat drivers.
After a 20-year career in the air national guard, Britton Shaw still couldn't get enough of the sky. So, he founded River Valley Paragliding to share his passion with new students. Whether soaring over local river bottoms or catching gusts of wind from atop Heavener Mountain, he performs and oversees solo and tandem flights, giving his charges hands-on experience in the air.
Celebrated by Golfweek as one of the 40 Best New Courses of 2010, the site where Civil War–bushwhacker Alfred Bolin and his gang once ambushed unsuspecting travelers is now John Daly's Murder Rock Golf and Country Club. The 18-hole course plots an oscillating, 6,727-yard path over the foothills of the Ozark Mountains. The first hole sets the tone for the round with an elevated tee box that looks out 363 yards downhill into the mountainous contours that ripple against the horizon. The par 71 course concludes at the daunting 18th hole—the course's longest par four and most difficult hole—where an aggressive drive can cut off the corner of a dog-leg right on the way to a severely sloped green and portal into Space Jam.
Legs weary from ascending steep hills or squat-thrusting golf carts can take a load off at Glenn's at Murder Rock. Amid dark-stained wood paneling and leather-upholstered chairs, the eatery serves an inventive grill menu including steak flatbread sandwiches and pitas stuffed with Cajun-seasoned chicken or shrimp.
Course at a Glance:
Though the Ozark Murder Mysteries' plotlines center on dark whodunits, the actors' humorous takes on each story leave audiences of all ages grinning. Performers challenge audiences to pinpoint the perpetrator as they act out interactive scenarios during regularly rotating shows. A complete feast fuels deeper belly laughs, quicker thinking, and sprightlier backflips during Ozark Murder Mysteries' scheduled performances, and the troupe also travels to private events via its Murder Mystery To Go! program.
Chopper Charter Branson's flights range from aerial photography to scenic tours and hands-on instruction and training. Each student learns on the Robinson R44 helicopter, touted as the most popular helicopter in the world. The FAA-certified air carrier meticulously maintains their choppers, taking all safety precautions and plopping them onto a treadmill for at least 30 minutes, three to five times a week.
At Branson Boat Club, families and friends cast off into the waters of Table Rock Lake on leisurely personal retreats. Boaters bring family members along for a 90-minute orientation in which Branson Boat Club's harbormaster imparts hands-on boating-safety instruction and raps about his favorite episodes of Gilligan's Island. Afterward, families set sail aboard their choice of the club's six boats. Plumb the lake depths for fish in the 22' Fish Series pontoon boat with two fishing seats and a 9' canopy, or kick back on the 22' Cruise Model Relax pontoon boat with a canopy, stereo system, and CD player. Boaters must pay for their own gas (around $30–$75) and bring along their own wisecracking parrot navigator.

WHO Executive Board recommends the adoption of standards for the exchange of health data
The Executive Board of the World Health Organization (WHO) recommended to the Sixty-sixth World Health Assembly the adoption of the resolution eHealth standardization and interoperability that urges Member States to consider options to collaborate with relevant stakeholders, including national authorities, relevant ministries, health-care providers, and academic institutions, in order to draw up a road map for implementation of health data standards, in efforts to achieve a secure, timely and accurate exchange of data for health decision-making.
The resolution urges countries, as well, to consider developing policies and legislative mechanisms linked to an overall national eHealth strategy, in order to ensure compliance in the adoption of health data standards by the public and private sectors, as appropriate, and the donor community, as well as to ensure the privacy of personal clinical data. Nowadays, globally, 72 national eHealth strategies and plans have been developed .

Bryanna Clark Grogan's Vegan Feast Kitchen/ 21st Century Table: The kitchen journal of a vegan food writer.. I'm on Facebook and Twitter (see links in sidebar at right).
Tuesday, September 4, 2012
The recipe took just a wee bit of modifying and it turned out very well. You can't really taste the egg-y flavor right up front (which is a good thing, in my opinion), but there seems to be an added richness to the mixture.
Printable Recipe
Recipe updated January 14, 2013
This is a revised version of the recipe that appears in several of my cookbooks. For those who are allergic to soy, or who do not like tofu mayonnaise or the commercial "light" mayos (most are not vegan, anyway), here is a delicious (and inexpensive) solution! Four Hellman's fans of my acquaintance loved this (and were surprised that they did!). It contains a small amount of oil, just enough for good flavor and mouthfeel. It's smooth and creamy, and a little tangy, but not too much. The VEGG seemed to add a richness to the mixture.
**BRIGHT IDEA-- This mayonnaise, with the addition of herbs, garlic, etc., can be used as a savory vegetable and toast topping. Note: If you leave out the agar in the basic recipe, this makes a good base for cold savory sauces.
Mix A:
2 T. to 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil or flax oil (or a mix)
2 T. apple cider, plain rice vinegar, or white wine vinegar, or lemon juice
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. The VEGG powder
1/4 to 3/4 tsp. dry mustard (depending on your taste & how strong your mustard powder is)
1/2 cup + 2 T. cold water
3 1/2 T. cornstarch (or wheat starch--do not substitute other starches! You can buy organic cornstarch in health food stores and online.)
1/2 tsp. agar powder
Cooking Tip

Hi Bryanna,
I have agar agar flakes. Do you happen to know how much I need to make your mayonnaise?
- Mon Feb 18, 08:10:00 AM PST
- Bryanna Clark Grogan said...
You need about 1 tablespoon agar flakes, but I would grind them as fine as possible in a clean, dry coffee/spice mill, and then soak in the water for at least 10 minutes before cooking, so that it cook more easily. I really recommend using agar powder-- it's so much easier to use. Many people mistakenly think it's more expensive than flakes, but, ounce per ounce, powder can be cheaper than the flakes! For instance, 4 oz. of Barry Farms agar powder is $16.58 (and it will last you for ages because you use 6 times LESS than the flakes). If you go to this page http://tinyurl.com/awmlcce
and compare this to the price of the flakes, you will see that flakes cost upwards of $6 per ounce.

I sure hope you are right because I gave up mayo rather than eat vegan mayo and I've tried many times making my own and none come up to Hellmann's even though the creators said it did. My friends all my life have been trying to fool me with different brands and NONE have succeeded. I hope yours will be the trick because Jersey tomatoes will be out and I can't live any longer with out a BLT (vegan of course).

Sale e Pepe
480 South Collier Blvd., Marco
Emmanuel Boscherel occupies a unique niche in Marco Island's resort restaurant scene because he is one of the few professional pastry chefs on the Island who can claim that title, unlike other chefs who may be executive chefs, sous chefs or garde manger who also prepares desserts for the restaurant. Boscherel is the pastry chef at Sale e Pepe, an Italian restaurant known not only for its superlative dining experience (attributable to Executive Chef Alberto Varetto) but equally for its exquisitely presented desserts. Did I mention that Pastry Chef Emmanuel creates each one to order with the best ingredients available from upscale suppliers around the globe?
That having been said, Pastry Chef Emmanuel also shares a commonality with those chefs whose desire to attend a culinary school at a young age wasn't influenced by external circumstances.
"By the time I was 10, I knew what direction I wanted to go. True, my mom cooked, but what she really taught me was to use the best quality ingredients, all the things I ate when I was young." said Pastry Chef Emmanuel, lamenting that what he really missed in this country were "the little local farms where you could buy everything, from produce and fresh milk to freshly-laid eggs, fowl or meats."
"At fifteen I entered a specialty school, the Lycee Nicolas Appert in Orvault, Loire Atlantique, France and enrolled in the five-year Hotel and Catering Management program — you know, everything — front desk, cook, housekeeping, server, even dishwasher.'' Pastry Chef Emmanuel declared, explaining that the GM of a resort was required to know everything, and the school gave students all the tools, with an added emphasis on food and beverage."
"The last thing I remember before registration is the director spoke to us and told it like it was — 14 to 16 hours were the easy part — giving students an out before registering for school. My mother even asked 'are you sure?' just before I signed up.
"I was 20 when I graduated. My school was more difficult than the CIA and it had four kitchens and four dining areas. There were 500 of us, and before vacation we had to clean everything in two days. It had to be immaculate and kept looking new. Sometimes, we cleaned with acid so that after five years everything still had to look brand new. Every year the school sent us to do a restaurant internship and I did four of them in France. In 1996 I did my training in America. The school sent me to the Ocean House in Dennisport on the Cape for 4 months. It's still there, open from May through October, but under different management," he said, adding that he was treated well, but the living conditions didn't measure up. "I expected more, so I went back to France and graduated."
"I picked my spots. My teachers helped me find employers," Pastry Chef Emmanuel explained, noting that connections were important when he obtained work in La Ferme du Letty, a one star Michelin restaurant.
"But I wanted to keep going – one, two and three stars is the highest – and found work in Le Domaine des hauts de Loire, a Michelin two-star restaurant in Nantes owned by Vincent Guerlais, an exceptional chocolatier who later became my friend and then my mentor," he said, noting that his next employer was the Michelin three-star Four Seasons restaurant in Paris.
"Here's how it works, Four Seasons is known everywhere, but in Paris it's the baby, the one that gets the best — 10-star service — perfect, perfect, perfect! All the celebrities stayed there and ate in the restaurant. The Four Season is where I first started cooking — I love to do fish. Meanwhile, when I'm on vacation I keep in touch with Vincent, first in Nantes, then I followed him to Vannes in Brittany.
"When I go home, I work with him to learn what is new. His shop is high-end retail; they do wonderful gourmet ice cream, the chocolates are all handmade, we sell what we produce using artisanal techniques and natural ingredients. I was always learning in France and on vacations I would go to Vincent – he was like a mentor – always helping me perfect my pastry skills.
"After Four Seasons, I decided I was knowledgeable enough to accept a chef's position to maintain the quality and skills I was accustomed to and agreed to work one month at Sale e Pepe. They (Marco Beach Ocean Resort) wanted to see what I could do and if I was a good fit for the company. That was six years ago and I'm still focused on doing what I can to make this a five-star resort — no — make that the best resort in Florida!

I have said more than once that working on an open source project can help you get a job writing proprietary or in-house software. When your potential employers can see, evaluate, and discuss the actual code you wrote, you are head and shoulders above anoth applicant who can only say, "I worked on the Beeblewank software package," but can't show exactly what he or she did.

LAKE DON PEDRO Guide Danny Layne said there are quality fish available for those with patience. He noted that client Trevor Adams of Hayward landed a bright 3-pound king salmon off the Blue Oaks buoy line on a rolled anchovy at 85 feet. Bill Rucker of Oakdale followed with a 2-pound rainbow. Look for the rainbows at 40 feet off the face of the dam near Big Oak Island; use ExCel lures or small broken-backed Rebels. The kings are holding from 85 feet and below and are biting on rolled shad or anchovies cured in Pautske's Fire Brine. Manny Basi of the Bait Barn in Waterford said jigs or Senkos in natural shad on wacky-rig are the best baits for the bottom, but he noted there is a top-water bite in the mornings or evenings with PopR's or Zara Spooks. Call: Monte Smith (209) 581-4734; Danny Layne (209) 586-2383; Gary Vella (209) 652-7550; Bait Barn (209) 874-3011
McCLURE RESERVOIR Jason Mello at A-1 Bait in Snelling reported good kokanee action as trollers are limiting by fishing at 50 to 70 feet in the main lake near McClure Point. He recommends Wedding Rings tipped with shoepeg corn. Mello landed a 2-pound spotted bass tossing a River2Sea S Waver in light trout from the banks in shallow water, but the majority of bass are at 30 feet or more and prefer jigs or drop shotting. Live crawdads are effective for bass, but large minnows have been hard to get. Manny Basi touted PopR's or Zara Spooks in the mornings or evenings with the fish dropping deeper during the day. Five-inch Senkos in Natural Shad or Berserk's Purple Hornet Jig with a Yamamoto twin-tailed trailer in cinnamon/purple are working when the fish move out. Call: A-1 Bait (209) 563-6505; Bub Tosh (209) 404-0053
McSWAIN RESERVOIR The rainbows have gone deeper so trollers have moved to the deepest part of the lake upriver above the second fence line. They're tossing Wedding Rings tipped with a night crawler, blade/crawler combinations, ro blue/silver Kastmasters. Bank fishing has been best around the handicapped docks. Jason Mello of A-1 Bait in Snelling has been telling customers to use fluorescent yellow garlic Power Eggs. Call: McSwain Marina (209) 378-2534
NEW MELONES RESERVOIR/TULLOCH Guide Joe Askamit reported excellent kokanee action during the two-day Kokanee Power Derby, calling it "the best fishing this year" from Carson Cove to the Highway 49 bridge. He said action was best at 80 to 100 feet with Uncle Larry's spinners or Glitterbug Hootchies in orange or pink loaded with shoepeg corn scented with root beer or garlic. He said the fish are heading for structure, and anglers should beware of submerged trees. He has switched to larger dodgers and baits and increased his speed from 1½ to 2 mph to create a more violent action. Melanie Lewis of Glory Hole Sporting Goods reported slow trout action, with night fishing under lights being the best chance for rainbows. She suggested anchoring at 25 to 50 feet and dropping the light down to 15 then fishing under it. Rainbows to two pounds are possible near the dam or spillway, and night crawlers or Power Bait are the most productive baits. Guide John Lietchy reported a tough bass bite due to warm water and dropping water levels. Lewis touted heavier three-quarter to 1-ounce football head California Reservoir jigs with the fish in deeper water. Catfishing is very good with plenty being caught in the 4- to 8-pound range at 5 to 20 feet on anchovies, frozen shad, mackerel or live minnows. Lewis advised scenting the bait with Bloody Tuna, Garlic or Anchovy. Matt Seldom of Sonora landed a 12½-pound catfish on chicken livers near the dam. Melones dropped 2½ feet and is at 50 percent capacity. Tulloch dropped a foot and 97 percent capacity. Call: Glory Hole Sports (209) 736-4333; Monte Smith (209) 581-4734; Danny Layne (209) 586-2383; Sierra Sport Fishing (209) 599-2023
SAN LUIS RESERVOIR / O'NEILL FOREBAY Low water levels in the main lake have concentrated stripers into a smaller pool, and anglers will have to search for the deeper banks near the trash racks or along submerged islands. The best action is in the Forebay, and Alex Tran of Coyote Bait and Tackle in Morgan Hill said there is an early morning top-water bite on Spooks or Pencil Poppers, and a subsurface bite with flukes or swimbaits for schoolies to 24-inches. The best action has been around the Islands, check 12 or the Highway 152 bridge. Pile worms or blood worms are working from the banks, but minnows have been difficult to get. The main lake dropped to 19 percent capacity. Call: Coyote Bait and Tackle (408) 463-0711 ; Roger George (559) 905-2954
DELTA/STOCKTON Small stripers have been the rule. Curtis Hayes at Benicia Bait said the river salmon season opens Tuesday, and there will be a number of anglers tossing spinners off the shoreline, particularly with high tide in the morning. He said striper fishing has been good, but most are barely legal. Closer to Stockton, guide Randy Pringle reported excellent smallmouth action for small fish with a variety of techniques. He said the winds have turned on the bite, and crankbaits in chartreuse blue gill patterns or red craw are working. He suggests bumping the rocks or ticking the weeds with the ima Squarebill or Pinjack on 15-pound test line. Furbet the Frog in white or black with a yellow head is working in both the open water near weeds or on top of the mats. He also touted flipping with the Berkley Chigger Craw in red/black on a sliding sinker with a 5/16ths weight. Call: Randy Pringle (209) 543-6260; Stan Koenigsberger (925) 570-5303.
HALF MOON BAY Salmon fishing is open seven days per week until the end of the season, and the size limit remains 24 inches above Pigeon Point until Aug. 1 when it drops to 20 inches. Capt. Dennis Baxter of the New Captain Pete traveled northwest to Fanny Shoals Buoy on Sunday for 25 "nice big" salmon to 28 pounds for 28 anglers. Call: Happy Hooker (510) 223-5388; Roger Thomas, Salty Lady (415) 760-9362, Bait and Switch Sport Fishing Center (650) 726-7133 726-7133; Emeryville Sport Fishing (510) 654-6040; Don Franklin, Soleman (510) 703-4148
MONTEREY/SANTA CRUZ Salmon fishing is open seven days a week until the end of the season. Rockfishing remains outstanding, and the Check Mate went south to Little Sur for 30 limits and a half-dozen ling cod Sunday. Chris Arcoleo said the salmon are biting off Moss Landing and some "monster fish" have been breaking lines. Call: Chris' Landing (831) 375-5951; Bayside Marine (831) 475-2173
SAN FRANCISCO BAY The salmon bite rebounded with Bay Area party boats finding fish near the Fanny Shoals Buoy. The New Easy Rider put in 27 limits Saturday. The C Gull II and Sundance out of Emeryville mooched near Fanny Shoals, for a combined 25 salmon to 25 pounds for 25 anglers. Capt. Jim Smith of the Happy Hooker worked the rockpiles in the central bay for 40 big stripers to 22 pounds, breaking off at least another 40 in the process.

A Quick Look into the Problem-Solving Capabilities of Congress
Problem: The U.S. is facing an increased number of cyber-attacks, which originate primarily from China and Russia. Not only are private businesses being targeted for proprietary information, but the federal government is a target as well. A major cyber-attack on the U.S. has the potential to cripple economic and military capabilities nationwide and could result in mass deaths, evacuations or a catastrophic national security breach.
Solution: Sen. Joseph Lieberman (I-Conn.) is sponsoring the Cybersecurity Act of 2012, which would create government jurisdiction over key infrastructure systems (such as the power grid and water supply) and develop cybersecurity performance requirements for any system categorized as critical infrastructure.
Problem: Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) is leading a campaign and proposing new legislation to oppose the Cybersecurity Act of 2012, which would, as currently written, designate regulatory power to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). McCain, wanting regulatory authority to go to the National Security Administration (NSA), will not support the current bill, and may succeed in preventing it from passing into law this year. This means that another year will pass without a bolstering of federal cybersecurity, and critical infrastructure will be more vulnerable than ever to cyber-attacks.
Solution: ???
Problem: This type of opposition is not uncommon. Partisan debate is a natural product in creating policy, and is foundationally beneficial for creating laws that balance the interests of different groups. Such an argument becomes irrelevant, however, in this case, due to a number of factors that should be considered.
First: Sen. McCain has a history of agreeing with Sen. Lieberman (who is a stingy conservative on security issues) on cybersecurity issues, as they are both proponents of a strong national defense.
Second: The basis of disagreement is over semantics. Does is really matter which executive agency governs cybersecurity issues? The reality is that Sen. McCain, being born into a renowned military family and having an extensive and decorated career in the armed services as well, is likely to have an unspoken allegiance towards military-run agencies (the NSA would be included in that category, DHS would not).
Third: This bill is too important not to be passed into law. As previously stated, the high vulnerability of critical systems that support the United States is a monumental threat to national security. Should a landmark cybersecurity bill be halted, and possibly stopped, due to the personal political loyalties of a few senators? Even if there were highly credible criticisms of the bill (which there are), the partisan differences need to be reconciled quickly, because neither the public nor private sectors can afford for the bill to fail.
Bottom Line: The abysmal Congressional practice of maintaining one's "electability" and obliging to personal loyalties should never come in front of making good decisions for the country. But it does… Maybe that's why Congressional approval is at 10%. Maybe that's why most people have a passionate hatred of politics. Maybe that's why China is catching up to us as a superpower at record-pace.
Whatever the reason may be, the partisan politics and disagreements need to stop. There's too much good that can be done in this country, only to waste our government time and resources on issues that can be reconciled. The specific senators mentioned in this post have worked together on several related issues. It's time for them to step up to the plate and do it again.

Perfect entry-area rug September 06, 2013
"I bought a small sisal rug with the intention of using it to replace a portion of a cat scratching post. Once it arrived, I found it too nice to cut up for this purpose, so it now sits on our lower level, just inside our door to the backyard.
It looks great, matches the decor should last for quite a while.. Now I just have to figure out what to use to fix the cat's post!"
Well Made April 10, 2013
"I've purchased other sisal rugs from Natural Rugs. The rugs are well made and the price is fair. Selecting the border/binding from the photos is tricky. I realized that I should have ordered "natural" instead of "tan". The tan was greenish and didn't coordinate with my existing rugs. I suggest asking for a fabric swatch if you are ordering a large quantity. Shipping was a bit slow, also. I only ordered one item, but I wondered if a larger order would have been given a higher priority."

A BUNGLED Mother's Day event where children were given erotic chocolates has exposed a bitter rift among parents at Woodberry Public School.
The Newcastle Herald reported on Saturday that several parents were horrified that bags containing chocolate penises and breasts were handed to children to give to their mums.
Others have since leapt to the defence of the school's Parents and Citizens committee.
A parent, Adam Moon, said yesterday the negative reaction had been exaggerated by parents who had ''personal issues'' with members of the committee.
''If there's an opportunity to have a whinge about [the committee], they're going to take it.
''There are some personal issues involved with it all.''
Mr Moon said the chocolates were supposed to be handed to parents by other parents, but that the process was ''mishandled'' and children were given the bags instead.
''From my point of view, I think it's a minor matter,'' Mr Moon said.
Another parent, identifying herself as ''Jen'' on the Herald website, said the chocolates were inappropriate but defended the committee and the school's principal.
''The kids see worse on television on a daily basis,'' she said.
Another poster, ''Dottie'', urged parents to support the school.
''The principal at that school does a great job, so lay off,'' she said. ''And instead of criticising the P&C, why not pull your weight and join.''
NSW Country P&C vice-president Mary Lawson, who is based in the Hunter, said giving out the chocolates was ''not a good idea''.
''As a parent, I wouldn't like it,'' she said.
''But I don't know the full story.''

I worked at Client Network Services
Pros – Mid size company with small size focus. Very MMIS customer focussed.
Cons – Too narrow focus.
Will not take a stand if customer is wrong.
Advice to Senior Management – Allow growth of the people from outside. The Management is too crowded with people who have no outside CNSI experience.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Teach Plus Research Finds Average Test Time Is Less Than Two Percent; Uncovers Wide-Ranging Variations in Testing Time by School District
BOSTON, Feb. 5, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- A newly released study from Teach Plus demonstrates that urban students spend an average of only 1.7 percent of the school year taking state and district-required tests. The report, "The Student and the Stopwatch: How Much Time is Spent on Testing in American Schools," also finds that students in "high-test" districts spend up to 5x as much time on test taking as students in "low-test" districts.
Teach Plus, a national non-profit that puts teacher leaders at the center of school and system-level reform, conducted the research in 12 urban and 20 surrounding suburban districts nationwide, with input from hundreds of kindergarten, third and seventh grade teachers. The report was unveiled at a February 5 launch event at the Thomas B. Fordham Institute in Washington, D.C.
"The report clearly demonstrates that the current polarized testing debate is not rooted in the reality our students face across the country," said Dr. Celine Coggins, CEO of Teach Plus. "The amount of time students spend taking tests is considerably lower than most people would estimate. It is time to shift the national conversation on testing from the amount of test time to the quality of tests and ensuring that teachers have the information they need to help their students succeed."
Report findings include:
"As most of the country shifts to Common Core, there is an unprecedented opportunity for districts and states to rethink testing and ensure that the new tests better meet the needs of students, parents, and teachers. Taking the time to do this right by putting teachers at the center of the conversation will benefit students well into the future," said Alice Johnson Cain, Vice President for Policy at Teach Plus.
The report suggests recommendations for district level policymakers, including the following:
About Teach Plus
Teach Plus aims to improve outcomes for urban children by ensuring that a greater proportion of students have access to effective, experienced teachers. Teach Plus runs three programs designed to place teacher leaders at the center of reform: Teaching Policy Fellows, the Teach Plus Network, and T3: Turnaround Teacher Teams. The programs focus on demonstrably effective teachers who want to continue classroom teaching while also expanding their impact as leaders in their schools and in district, state and national policy. Since its inception in August 2009, Teach Plus has grown to a network of more than 14,000 solutions-oriented teachers in six major cities across the country. www.teachplus.org

FORT LAUDERDALE -- Yes, ahead of their meeting in next Tuesday's Orange Bowl, the Florida State Seminoles and Northern Illinois Huskies finally arrived to South Florida on Wednesday afternoon.
But they were not alone.
The Orlando Sentinel's FSU reporter also touched down near the area's sunny shores.
Unfortunately, weather delays kept me grounded in Atlanta a little longer than I had anticipated, meaning my flight to Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport arrived more than an hour-and-a-half late. Meaning, instead of landing just in time to make the five-minute drive across the airport to greet the Seminoles, I came in about 15 minutes behind them.
Oh well.
Still, thanks to my colleagues at the South Florida Sun Sentinel, I was able to see what the scene was like when the water cannon salute welcomed FSU's taxiing jet not far from my own. You can see it for yourself, too, right here.
You also can hear what the scene in South Florida is like now that the Seminoles have arrived and are preparing for their first bowl practice later today by checking out this interview with the "Open Mike Show" from early Thursday morning.
In the interview, Sentinel columnist Mike Bianchi and myself cover a few different topics related to FSU. Namely, we cover the bowl game itself.
Remember, you can catch an FSU report on the "Open Mike Show" each Thursday morning around 7:30 a.m. while scrolling to 740 AM "The Game" on your radio, or by visiting the station's website here.

We Must Take UN's Internet Grab SeriouslyJune 21, 2012, 5:06pm
The ITU, an arm of the United Nations, is pushing for an international treaty that will give governments a much more powerful role in the architecture of the Internet and economics of the cross-border interconnection.
Video: French and Greek Elections Were Not Proof Austerity Doesn't WorkMay 8, 2012, 10:18am
Europe's elections this weekend don't prove much of anything about austerity in general. Citizenry are not to be blamed for being upset with austerity measures. The whole point is that it doesn't feel good to get your fiscal house in order after a spending binge. The democratic reaction doesn't suggest the viability of the plan's capacity to achieve its goal of reducing government debt.
Refining the Story of the Financial Crises in Europe and the USA
What new information is telling us about the causes of the financial crisis and how they relate to the economy todayApril 9, 2012
A significant amount of research has already been made about the financial crisis. But a midterm primer is nevertheless necessary;it is critical to assess the nature of the crises to ensure that the proper lessons are learned.
This article aims to present a history on the causes of the financial crisis that first emerged in the U.S. in 2007. Then it will analyze the roots of the current state of the economic crisis in Europe and the U.S. It will also assess the effects of the crises on the European and American economies. Consequently, a range of topics are discussed in the article, some of which have received deeper treatment elsewhere in economic literature, but have not been pieced together to provide a coherent past and present picture of the situation.
Why is Europe So Delusional on Greece?February 24, 2012, 2:32pm
This isn't really about the country. The Greeks are being held hostage by the banks and financial institutions on Wall Street, in London and Paris who want to make sure that money keeps on flowing from government bailout packages -- not to Greece, but into their coffers.
Surveying the State of Global Freedom
In 2010, the world stalled on the road to democracyDecember 23, 2011
This year served mainly to vindicate the desires of tyrants and the fears of pessimists. To recapture the sense that the world is destined for universal democracy, you'd need a time machine.
How Economic Freedom Can Ensure an Arab Autumn
Lack of political representation is merely a symptom of the fundamental lack of economic freedom in Arab countriesDecember 14, 2011
The self-immolation of a young Tunisian street vendor Tarek Mohamed Bouazizi helped spark the Arab Spring. The first of many protestors in 2011 sharing the honor of Time magazine Person of the Year, Bouazizi was denied the right to trade, having his produce repeatedly stolen by police while being harassed by corrupt government officials. It is fitting, then, that the circumstances leading up to his tragic protest are also emblematic of underlying causes of the revolution.

ANNAPOLIS, MD (September 11, 2011) – Governor Martin O'Malley today issued the following statement on the 10th anniversary of the September 11th attacks:
"Today, we remember and pay tribute to the 3,000 men, women, and children – 68 of them Marylanders – who lost their lives on September 11th, 2001.
"The story of September 11th – the courage, the remembrance, the renewal and what we choose to do with that – is also the story of America. Even amidst tragedy, there was a tremendous amount of beauty revealed that day 10 years ago – it was the beauty that is the dignity of every individual, the beauty of our own responsibility to be able to advance and protect the greater good, and the beauty that comes from understanding that we're all in this together, that we need each other, and what we do in this lifetime does matter. On September 11th, 2001, we told one another that we would never, ever forget. And we won't.
"Together, we mark this occasion of remembrance, renewal and resilience."

New Chief Executive Daniel Gidney recently joined the Club from the Ricoh Arena in Coventry.
Here, in his first interview, Daniel talks about the legacy he has inherited from outgoing Chief Executive Jim Cumbes and reveals his own vision for the future of Lancashire County Cricket Club and Old Trafford.
Welcome to Lancashire County Cricket Club, Daniel. You must be delighted to be joining at such an exciting time for the Club?
DG: I am absolutely delighted to be joining Lancashire at what is a pivotal moment in their rich history. A £32m redevelopment of the ground with future development potential, it's unusual to get that blend of a successful Sporting Club with such impressive heritage coupled with amazing venue facilities in such an iconic location.
You were previously in charge at the Ricoh Arena in Coventry. How has your experience there prepared you for your role at Old Trafford?
DG: I had six wonderful years at the Ricoh that was just a year old when I joined the team as CEO there. So, on the one hand a different challenge as the venue had no history or heritage at all and with a football club as an operating tenant. However, 80% of the venue's revenues were derived from match day when I arrived. When I left, match day revenues were only 20% as we built a very strong venue revenue base (non match day related) from scratch up to well over £10m.
You will be taking over from Jim Cumbes who has been at the Club for a very long time. Jim has left a legacy behind which you must be champing at the bit to take to the next level?
DG: Jim is a Lancashire legend, and the Club and the County owe him a huge debt of gratitude not just for his fabulous service both as a player, senior manager and the Chief Exec but also for him driving through the development and pulling the Club through the dark days of the infamous court battles. His legacy provides a strong platform for the Club to grow and expand and yes, I am excited about what we can achieve here. I want to build on the foundations already laid down to create a large, strong and diverse sports and leisure business which will underpin Lancashire County Cricket Club for the next 150 years.
You have already been in place for a number of weeks, what are your thoughts on the Club?
DG: The welcome and friendliness have been second to none and not something, to be fair, that I have been used to coming from a football environment. The Club has a real homely feel about it. I want to harness that spirit and positive attitude and ensure that it embraces all areas of the business for all of our customers so that whenever anybody comes to Old Trafford they get a consistently warm welcome.
Once the redevelopment of Old Trafford is completed in spring 2013, we will have some of the best facilities in the country not only for sport but also for business opportunities. How important is non-match day income for a business like ours?
DG: As I have mentioned earlier, non match day is vital. Outside of sport you won't find any businesses that have revenue only for 30 odd days a year but have costs for 365 days a year. You just have to look at the impact of no international cricket on the business over recent times to test that fragility. With The Point, the new Pavilion, and the Players and Media building providing exceptional conference, events and meeting space then Old Trafford as a venue is well set to grow significantly in this area to complement the Cricket side of the business. You could say that cricket is at our heart but business is on our mind.
What are the challenges for domestic cricket in the country over the next few years?
DG: I'm sure we could fill pages with this topic! Jim had some strong views on this subject and I am enjoying the ongpoing debate. I am not afraid to say that I bring a different set of eyes to this, a business view rather than a purist cricket view, although in reality both views should align if you get your fan engagement strategy right. Did I just use the word fan? I did. Do I actually believe that Members are fans? Of course I do, but they are much more than that. Our Members are our lifeblood, but ultimately they are Members because they love to watch Lancashire play cricket. I believe we need to engage with Members more specifically about what is important to them rather than what we simply think is important to them. Am I mad you ask? No not at all, but if I make this bargain with the Members that I will listen and engage from the first ball of the first over so to speak. The other side of that bargain is that there is an understanding of the commercial realities of first class cricket, revenues generated and costs incurred, so in other words don't bowl me any googlies please!
On a serious note, we have to try to give our Members what they want, whilst at the same time trying to match the costs against the revenues. The first part of this process is honest and reasonable engagement of what actually really is important. I believe we, as an organisation, need to look long and hard at making the Membership feel incredibly valued. The second key issue is how we undertake the missionary work to attract new audiences to cricket (as long as they don't sit in front of the pavilion!). Ten years or so ago with the advent of Twenty20 cricket, real strides were made in this area but in recent years less research has been undertaken outside of existing cricket watchers. We need to work harder at this. With Premier League football, theatres, cinemas etc all vying for that leisure pound we have to be creative, but I have no doubt that we can build our audience base. Just look at 100,000 Ashes tickets sold in rapid time! Those customers should be coming to watch Lancashire.
What is your own experience of cricket? Did you ever play the game?
DG: I actually started playing quite late. A medium pacer who loved and enjoyed the game but not particularly talented. I didn't get many opportunities at School and started playing at College in Essex and for the local village at Great Leighs. In more recent years I played a few times for the Village 2nd team in Snitterfield near Stratford. I have played in a corporate charity game at Rugby School against a team including Graeme Hick and Jonathan Batty. I had my requisite 2 overs to bowl, skilfully avoided coming on until Hick was caught on the boundary and then bowled primarily at Jonathan Batty - who failed to score a boundary off me (which I am sure he is delighted about). I have also played in a charity game for Apollo Theatres against the Really Useful Theatre Company on the Nursery Ground at Edgbaston, but my abiding memory of that game was fielding near the entrance to the ground and having to cross the main road and fetch the ball from the thorn bushes in Canon Hill Park after the General Manager of the Alexandra Theatre's very part time leg spin got smashed for six over the road three balls in a row.
Probably though, one of my strangest experiences was playing for my brother's chambers against a neighbouring chambers because they were short. No I am not a lawyer, but they drafted me in anyway. I remember fielding at extra cover and seeing a guy in his early fifties stride to the crease, very confidently swing his bat around in a Botham-esque style. First ball he smashes on its way to the boundary and I leapt to my left trying just to stop the ball if I could. Amazingly the ball stuck in my left hand and this guy was out for a golden duck. But the catch was greeted with silence by the fielders as the batsman bashed his bat into the ground and then stormed back to the dressing room in frustration. It was only when he was out of eye and earshot that the smiles appeared. It turns out he was a very important high court judge that had driven up from London to Warwickshire just to play in this cricket match. Let's hope I am never in court…

There are two types of building regulations that are needed when doing a loft conversion:
Building Control Regulations
This is mainly to do with the health and safety of the build. Your loft conversion specialist would normally sort all of this out for you so you would not have to worry about this. This will just cover:
- If there is sufficient structural strength in the new floor
- Structural stability is not endangered (included the existing roof)
- There is a safe fire escape route
- The stairs leading to the new loft space are safe
- Sufficient sound insulation between loft space and the floors below.
Planning Permission
This is slightly more complicated. Since 2008 the permitted development rights were extended meaning that loft conversions rarely needed planning permission. However, there are several conservation areas in London which means that you might need planning permission. You can get a good indicator of whether you would be able to get planning permission by having a look down the street to see if anyone else has had the same work done.
Other times that you will need planning permission is:
- The extension on a terraced house exceeds 40 cubic metres
- The extension on a detached house exceeds 50 cubic metres
- If the extension goes beyond the current roof slope on the side that faces the highway
- If the extension is planning to go higher than the highest part of the current roof
- If you are planning to use materials that are different in appearance to the current structure
- If you are going to include a balcony, veranda or raised platform
- You live in a conservation area of London
Local London builders will know if you live in a conservation area and also how likely your plans will be approved and even if they are needed.

Thanks for stopping by my sketchbook!
oh and check out my color link for some good color info. The oil mixing dosen't apply to digital art too much but the color keying is fantastic.
Keep going GoGoJojo!

@ Zazers: it's embarrassing to say, but I have no idea what color keying is! I'm definitely going to read it, though.
Here's that baby from earlier, semi-colored. I was trying to make him "so ugly he's cute", but he turned out kinda "so ugly, he's a little creepy".
omg LOVE the chubby Buddha belly!
That helmet is kick-ass. My 2nd child was an ugly baby - we called him Mr Magoo for the first 3 months. Yours is coming along nicely.
I didn't think it was possible to be called an artist when you have nothing to say. It's like being a writer who publishes individual words as books and expects to be praised for it.
Scary face looks scared. Fun.

I like your sketches! And the beginnings of your digi stuff is looking solid. Keep drawing from life and anatomy books!
HEY, did you do these with your new christmas tablet ! How do you like it???
My son wants a Wacom board? Would love to know what you think.
I know you just got it, and I hear there is a learning curve.
Mah ' Crub
Thanks for the comments you guys. The day started out horrible. I was feeling really sick and anemic, but now I'm feeling better, and then I got some nice posts, and now it's finally snowing here! I got a late start, but I'll be posting some stuff later tonight.
I just wanted to answer your question, Mah ' Crub. I got a Wacom too, though I only had enough for an 8x6 bamboo. I've really only used the Corel Painter Essentials I got with it, but it really is like working with paints as far as my limited experience with them go. I don't know about the learning curve, but I got used to it pretty quickly. If your son thinks he would really use it, I would definitely recommend it.
Thanks for taking a peek at my sketchbook! I can see you're getting right into the swing of things with your new tablet, good job. The "Hitler Baby" is creepy, but that just makes him all the more interesting. I like what you've done with the details on his face so far. Keep it up! And although it's been said several times before, I'll say it again: That helmet is awesome!!
You seem to be learning the use of tablet faster then I was. Those shoes are fantastic. Well maybe the shoes are not so spectacular but the painting with the shoes is
And your line work has improved a lot. That "kind of self portrait" of yours (with the dagger (no wonder that one guy misses half a head)) is great. The lines, shading, everything.

(some nudity may occur)
hey man! only thing I can say is to just take time with your stuff. I tend to rush things sometimes too but it comes out better when I take my time.
Your shading and stuff is fantastic. As always
@Wofls: Thank you! Why you gotta have so many dogs? Your gonna make me jealous.
@Myllys: Ooh, thank you thank you. You can just call me "this is not a pipe" Magritte.
@1986: AAHH! It feels like you're yelling at me. You want some cake(eraser)?
@Goldilockz: No no no! Have you forgotten my rendering problems?
Okay, 1986, here's some cake(eraser) for you,
and some cake(eraser) for everybody else,
ew, this isn't cake...
your imagination is awesome! Sorry for making you feel excluded with the swedish stuff, if it's any comfort my japanese isn't up to snuff Baseball-bat fight is my favorite!
@deusExMatteo: I love it too, and you know what? That texturing was just a fluke! I think that there was oil residue left on the plate when I put the aquatint on, and that made the acid etch it like that. Awesome...
@Mokhi: I collect food shaped erasers, and got that one for Christmas.
@Mr. Spect: I wonder if anyone has noticed that there aren't any laces in those boots...I'll get on to that when I have a chance.
So I pressed save, and it pulled the "is not responding" thing, so I don't have enough done on the guts pick to warrant an update on it. But here's a wip of Loathsome for the DFWDELL or whatever that acronym is. Trust me, It won't look like it's melting when I'm done.
And here's a new year's self portrait.
There's no way to start a new decade then without pants.
[edit] I just realized that that could be taken differently, depending on where you live, so let me clarify: by pants, I mean trousers.

Wow you update fast! I really like the scary baby and the hand. Congrats on the new tablet. I hope I can get one eventually.
You should soon post an update for that last weird looking guy, because now he's just plain creepy

NicG, I'm just trying to get as much done as I can before I start pre-calc and physics. Dad didn't want me going into art, because mama went to art school and he did photography(now he's an accountant), and neither of them were happy with those careers.
So I'm going into geology and wanted to minor in art, but dad doesn't even want that, he'd rather I minor in Japanese. But I figure with all the art classes I take already, I might as have art as a minor, so I'm going to have two minors. Lots of work.
Sorry, I needed to get that off of my chest. I know he loves me and just wants best for me. And I will still be posting at least one thing a day, I promise!
Here you go Myllys, along with a girly looking Pxelslayer. (Sorry, Pxelslayer.)
I feel bad about ranting now, I think I'll try to paint something of my parents back in the day.
Can I presume the grey guy you where talking aboot was the one with his guts hanging out of him? He'll probably look more interesting then my character (or at least in a gruesome sense).
The only thing I can say is to keep on doing what ya doing, practise makes almost perfect. After all you'll never be perfect >.>
I'm a sadistic person.
My observational skills may be great but i said nothing about my drawing skills

You captured that sad nose. Cute SP. Good luck with your studies.

HAha that baby was awesome. And I really like the sketches up above.
Spice up the eyes in that last portrait. Now they're basically black blobs in a white colour. SHow more form of the eye add some speculars and draw the iris. THe iris is very interstnig to draw and has lots of hue shifts. PLenty of stuff to show.
Not too fond of the yellow highlight. Just pick your medium skin tone slide the value slider to around 75 and the saturation slider to like 20 and make it a bit more yellowish, That should give you a more realistic look.
Keep em coming.
That's too bad about your parents views. I wish it weren't true but I have a feeling a lot of us are pushing against the same things. My dad is a photographer, but for the military, and my mom is a financial planner who really wants me to be able to make a living. Actually, I think it makes for better art to have to struggle for it, it makes you realize how muchyou love it that you can't give it up. Keep fighting!
Why don't you try laying out a few pages of your graphic novel in roughs? It could be good to work on your compositions and laying figures out in relation to each other (What I'm working on now too) and it's never to early to try, at the very least you'll get a good idea of what you need to improve to get there.
The colors in the cg'd face turned out great. You've sure got a lot of drawing done.
I liked geology too and seriously considered it as a career. I actually ended up in health care. I never really considered art as a career. When I graduated high school I was already pregnant and really needed to choose a career where I could support myself. since I lived in a VERY economically depressed area, health care made sense and to be honest I LOVE what I do. Sometimes, though I really think about pursuing the art more I'm just not in a place to do it yet.
You should follow your heart. Take the art classes you want to take while you have the opportunity. Doing one thing doesn't have to make the other impossible-it just makes the work that much harder but art can be fulfilling even just as a hobby.
It's too bad you feel like he's not supportive of something you love but it's good that you know that he wants whats best for you. Don't feel bad. I think all of the paintings I gave to my parents in college found their way to the attic and even now my mom usually just says "Oh that's nice, honey" if I show her anything. I know they love me but they just don't get it. They don't have to get it-as long as I do.
In the end it's about what makes you happy. Hang in there and don't give up what you love for anyone.
That sucks that your parents weren't happy with those careers. They can't let their past experiences cloud your future though, that's not fair at all. I hope you find a happy medium with them

I did not see the 2010 London production so I cannot comment on it myself, though having a general read through of reviews there seemed to be criticisms that the production was too long. Rachel Wagstaff has now revised the play so that Stephen Wraysfield now has flashbacks of his visit to the Azuire family, which keeps the pace going during a 2 hour and 40 minute production. The story was digestible and it almost had me crying by the end.Together with a great cast and some wonderful designs, this was a perfect start to 2013.
I wholeheartedly recommend this at a Low Full Price

This is coming to my local in June, so will catch it after your recommendation. I too missed Nunn's production at the (then) Comedy in 2010.
