UVM drops fee, sees more applicationsThe Associated Press | March 10,2013BURLINGTON A decision to waive an early-application fee is being credited with helping to increase the number of students applying to the University of Vermont by 2.7 percent.
The growth is part of a plan by UVM President Thomas Sullivan to make the school more selective by accepting a smaller percentage of the number of students who apply.
In addition to the decision to waive the $55 early application fee, UVM officials believe there has been a positive buzz about the school among students and high school guidance counselors.
That buzz continued through a very good summer visit season and into the fall, said Chris Lucier, the schools vice president for enrollment management.
As of last week, 22,277 students applied for admission to UVM, just below the all-time record of 23,365 set in 2009.
Of the total number of applicants this year, 2,118 came from Vermont students, a decrease of about 5.5 percent from last year.
Lucier said he could not explain why there was a drop in Vermont applications, but he expected a rebound. This year we will likely have the third- or fourth-most applications from Vermont students since 1980, he said.
We have received over 2,000 applications from Vermont students consistently since 2006, the same period that the number of (high school) graduates in Vermont has been declining, Lucier added. This reflects our focused outreach to recruit Vermont students in the face of the declining demographics.MORE IN This Just InStaff Report Full StoryStaff Report Full StoryThe Associated Press Full Story

You may remember my distress as I told you how I just can't make a good pot roast. If you read the comments on that thread, many people offered me some great tips. Thank you for that.
Then, this last Saturday morning I happened upon Pioneer Woman's new Food Network show, and of course she was making a pot roast. I'll admit I haven't tried any of her recipes for a very long time because, to be honest, they are too high in calories.
But she really spoke to me when she explained that she too could never make a good pot roast until one day she realized that if it's turning out like shoe leather, it's probably because you didn't roast it long enough, NOT because you overcooked it.
Thank you, Ree Drummond, for fixing my biggest problem. I too would not cook mine long enough thinking if I kept it in the oven it would only get more tough and leathery! So... I followed her recipe, and wouldn' t you know..
staring back at me was the most beautiful, tender, pull-apart-with-a-fork, juicy chuck roast you ever saw!
I honestly did a little victory dance. When you are an almost 35 year old mother these things excite you. They really do.
So, for the perfect pot roast, I basically followed Ree's recipe (though I think she added wine to her stock and I didn't).
Perfect Pot Roast
1- 4 to 5 lb. beef chuck roast
3 c. beef broth
2 large onions, peeled and cut in half
handful of carrots (I used potatoes)
thyme and sage sprigs
salt and pepper to taste
1. Sear the onions in your casserole dish on all sides (I added about 1 T. of olive oil to the pan) until they are golden. Add in the carrots or potatoes and do the same. Remove from pan and set aside.
2. Rub the roast on all sides with salt and pepper. Sear the roast in the same pan on all sides, then removing from pan as well. Pour in the beef broth, stirring to mix it with the meat particles from the bottom of the pan.
3. Add the vegetables and beef back to the pan, vegetables on the bottom. Cover and bake at 250 degrees for about 4 hours.
Rich tasted this, after years of eating my beef-jerky textured version of pot roast and said, "Now that's a pot roast!"

I have a home server with Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS installed. The server has 5 x HDD - 1 x 80GB for the OS, and 4 x 1TB configured into software RAID 5.
About few weeks ago during boot-up, I was alerted to the fact that one of the 1TB disks has a bad SMART status; looks like it's time to replace one of the 1TB disks. The server still worked fine, just that every time the server boots up I get reminded that I need to replace the disk. Recently as I tried to turn on the server, this error comes up:
/dev/sda2: clean, 570369/4644864 files, 2029517/18561024 blocks
The disk drive for /home is not ready yet or not present
Continue to wait; or Press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery
I booted into a Live CD to have a look at the array, but it looks like the RAID is not running. When I try to start the RAID array, I get an error message saying "Not enough components available to start the RAID array". The 80GB OS drive appears to be healthy and in a working state, but one of the 1TB drive is about to fail with a red SMART error status and 2 others have a few bad sectors but the SMART status is still green.
I played around a little and I tried to force assemble the array without the drive with the SMART error but it said something about 'missing superblock'. That's about as far as I got before I decided not to muck around with it anymore and ask for help. What should my next step be? Is it possible to recover the array?

Can some one please help with instructions for making a fabric house.
It needs to be three dimensional and quilted.
Hi Nan111!
I would suggest making each of the house sides as a separate piece and joining the four "walls" to form a box, and set the roof on top. You could design the walls and roof like a traditional house or a contemporary one.
Kathy York made a house project for Quilt Festival last year, and has some good photos on this website:
Hope this helps.

A sickness is spreading in a New Jersey School District high school. Now an investigation is underway to find the cause.
Nine students were sent home from Timber Creek Regional High School in Erial, NJ on Thursday. They complained about stomach pains. That's on top of the 77 kids and six staff members who were already out sick.
Camden County Department of Health is now investigating and it said that it doesn't appear to be a food-borne illness or anything other than a virus.
School Administrators brought in workers to sanitize the school.

A new Wisconsin Historical Society website is coming mid-May 2014! See a preview >>
America's post-World War II period is often portrayed as a time of affluence and contentment, but fear of atomic war and Communist infiltration also marked the era and affected the decisions Americans made about their lives and futures. Fear of atomic bomb attacks on the nation's cities helped motivate people to move to the relative safety of the suburbs. Some Americans built fallout shelters to protect their families while others, shocked by the prospect of nuclear annihilation at any moment, sought to live for the present.
Scene from the motion picture, Kiss Me Deadly, 1955.
This film graphically illustrated Americans' fear of atomic energy and their hope that it only would be used against evil. In the movie, the villainess, played by Gaby Rogers, insists on seeing the contents of a box filled with nuclear material, despite warnings that it is dangerous. Upon opening it, she screams and bursts into flames. The hero and his secretary narrowly escape before the box explodes in a powerful atomic blast. Courtesy of the Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research.
Once the first atomic bomb was dropped on Japan, Americans realized a new era in history, one defined by the ability of humans to destroy their world. Fear of nuclear warfare and the adverse effects of atomic radiation pervaded popular film, literature, and other forms of mass culture.
Atomic Age fears provided science fiction writers with the inspiration for hundreds of stories, many of which conveyed political and moral messages as they shocked and entertained American readers and movie audiences. Three story types had emerged by the mid-1950s: the first dealt with atomic warfare; the second showed dinosaurs or fantastical beasts awakened or created by atomic blasts; and the third type depicted human deformities resulting from atomic experiments gone awry.
Nuclear Warfare
Some science fiction writers dramatized the horrors of atomic war in the hope that public awareness of nuclear annihilation would help prevent Armageddon. Others supported the growth of an American nuclear arsenal as a way to discourage foreign attack. They portrayed the Soviets as aggressors who force Americans into a position of nuclear retaliation against the evil Communist empire.
Poster for the motion picture, 1000 Years from Now and Invasion U.S.A., 1952.
Made at the time the hydrogen bomb was being developed, both films illustrate the public's fear of this powerful weapon. The first shows a frightful future world of mutants and monsters created by radiation from an H-bomb. In the second film, a visitor to New York City convinces patrons at a bar that the Soviets have dropped H-bombs on American cities. Most of them panic, some to the point of suicide, before realizing that the bombings never occurred and that the stranger had hypnotized them. They all vow to prevent the vision from becoming reality. Courtesy of the Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research.
Poster for the motion picture, The Day the World Ended, 1956.
This film depicts seven survivors of an atomic holocaust, including a scientist and his daughter. While the scientist decides which male survivor will mate with his daughter, the others fight among themselves. All petty concerns are forgotten, however, when cannibalistic mutant monsters attack the group and force them to work together. Courtesy of the Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research.
Fantastic Beasts
These science fiction stories almost always included a creature who is created and then destroyed by nuclear power, graphically illustrating both the fear and hope inspired by atomic energy. Besides the octopus and dinosaur shown here, other mutants were made from ants, grasshoppers, crabs, alligators, and spiders. Some scholars believe the creatures also may have been metaphors for the Communists.
Poster for the motion picture, The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms, 1953.
This movie, which features an arctic dinosaur awakened by an atomic explosion, was the first of the mutant monster films. It inspired more famous movies such as Them! and Godzilla. After attacking and destroying much of New York City, this movie's beast is killed with a radioactive isotope. Courtesy of the Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research.
Atomic Experiments Gone Awry
The majority of these stories dealt with radioactive experiments that deformed humans, usually scientists. Some atomic accidents benefited those affected, but others led to death. A few stories looked at the possibility of nuclear accidents destroying the world in a way no different from an atomic war.
Poster for the motion picture The Fly, 1958.
In this movie, a scientist accidentally switches heads with a housefly after inventing a matter-transmitting device which can rearrange atoms. By the end of the movie, both he and the housefly are killed for their own good. Courtesy of the Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research.
In July 1946, the United States government dropped two atomic test bombs on the tiny islands of the Bikini Atoll in the Pacific Ocean. The first was detonated in the air and caused relatively little damage. The limited impact of this explosion received much press coverage and calmed many Americans. The second bomb test, exploded below water, caused tremendous damage and made at least those involved more aware of the destructive power of radiation.
"Death Fog at Bikini"
Illustration published in Popular Mechanics, September 1946.
Two months after the Bikini tests, Popular Mechanics described the effects of the second bomb test, including the "death fog" of radioactive fallout that contaminated thirty-six square miles of water. The article emphasized the deadliness of the radiation and the Navy's inability to wash it off "hot" ships.
No Place to Hide by David Bradley, published by Bantam Books, New York, New York, 1949.
David Bradley, an army doctor from Madison, Wisconsin, was present at the atomic bomb tests at the Bikini Atoll. He found the results of the tests disturbing and believed the public should be informed of them. His best selling book, first published in 1948, aroused fear about the long lasting effects of radiation. Courtesy of Bowling Green State University Popular Culture Library.
While "atomic fiction" depicted possible fearful scenarios using atomic bombs and radiation, documentary sources illustrated the reality. Newspapers, magazines, books, and pamphlets described in vivid detail the effects of nuclear bombs on the Bikini Atoll, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki, kept Americans abreast of the latest atomic developments and their destructive forces, and explained the devastating results if a bomb were to be dropped on the United States. All combined to reinforce the fear Americans had about anything atomic.
"What an Atomic Bomb Would do to the Heart of Milwaukee"
Illustration published in The Milwaukee Journal, August 8, 1945.
This illustration brought home to Wisconsinites the effect of the Hiroshima bombing by showing how the same blast would have obliterated the "whole heart of Milwaukee."
The Atomic Age Opens Published by Pocket Books, New York, New York, 1945.
In the weeks after the bombing of Japan, the editors of Pocket Books attempted to come to grips with the event's meaning and consequences. In this book they discussed the atomic bomb's destructive force, how President Truman came to the decision to use the atomic bomb, how atomic energy is created, and whether the bomb's existence will lead to the end of the world or "a veritable Utopia."
Blast wave passing over house and dog
Illustration published in Radiological Defense Textbook, March 1963.
A number of people must have been upset by the dog's death because in later versions of this illustration, the dog was replaced by a garbage can.
"Probable acute effects of gamma radiation on humans"
Illustration published in Fallout Shelter Surveys: Guide for Executives, first printed in October 1959.
Hiroshima by John Hersey, published by Bantam Books, New York, New York, 1948.
An instant bestseller when first published in 1946, Hiroshima gave the American public a vivid description of the atomic bomb's destruction to that Japanese city and its people, as seen through the eyes of six survivors. Courtesy of Bowling Green State University Popular Culture Library.
"Life or Death: 'Baby play with nice ball?'"
Editorial cartoon, drawn by David Low and published in Time, August 20, 1945.
Englishman David Low captured people's worries about atomic science in this widely published cartoon of a scientist holding out an atom labeled "Life or Death" to a baby representing "humanity."
"U.S. Has Exploded World's First H-Bomb, AEC Reveals" Wisconsin State Journal, Madison, Wisconsin, November 17, 1952.
After much discussion among scientists and federal government officials about whether a stronger atomic bomb should be created, President Truman gave his approval to have the hydrogen bomb built. As the headline of this newspaper proclaims, the first H-bomb was detonated on November 16, 1952. Its explosive power was 1000 times that of the bombs dropped on Japan. Once again the United States had nuclear weapon superiority over the Soviet Union. Courtesy of Paul Boyer.
"Will the Atom Drive Us Underground?"
Illustration published in Popular Mechanics, October 1946.
As fear of atomic explosions and radioactive fallout grew, editors of Popular Mechanics suggested that people may be forced to live underground. At the same time, other authors considered this move to underground living a step toward Utopia.
"Trinity", the first atomic explosion, Alamagordo, New Mexico, July 16, 1945
Illustration published in Classics Illustrated: The Atomic Age comic book, 1960.
Positive portrayals of atomic bomb blasts, along with toys and games that made light of atomic bomb destruction like those in the case below, may have helped diffuse some of the fear the American public felt about the bomb by desensitizing them to the devastation an atomic bomb could cause.
Atomic Bomb Puzzle Made by A.C. Gilbert Company, New Haven, Connecticut, 1945- 1949,
and 1950-1960.
The Gilbert Company produced all sorts of puzzle boxes, usually sold in sets of six. One of these was the atomic bomb puzzle box which let players reenact the bombing of Japan. By the 1950s, the Gilbert Company had changed this puzzle box to represent a generic target. Courtesy of John Wickland.
Nuclear War Card Game Made by Douglas Malewicki, Los Angeles, California, 1965.
The object of this game was to annihilate your enemies or convince them to join your superior forces. Players withdrew from the game when their nations lost their entire populations. Courtesy of Alex Malloy.
Although Soviets and Americans were allies during World War II, relations quickly deteriorated once the war ended. A mistrust of Soviet Communism pervaded the American consciousness. At first, people feared that Soviets were infiltrating American society and converting the gullible and weak to Communism. Once the Soviets detonated their first atomic bomb in 1949, fear of Communist Russia escalated. Many Americans now believed that an atomic war was on the horizon and that they would be among the victims.
Joseph Jack Kornfeder pretending to be the Chief Commissar of Mosinee, Wisconsin, May 1, 1950.
In the year following the Soviet Union's development of the atomic bomb, fear of Communist takeover was especially high. The American Legion, a leader in anti-Communist sentiment, believed that staging a "Day Under Communism" would educate Americans about the pending threat. Mosinee, Wisconsin, a small paper mill town, was chosen for the event. Kornfeder, a former Communist who had been trained in Moscow's Lenin School in "methods of political warfare," helped bring an aura of believability to the spectacle.

The Red Star
Printed by the Mosinee Times, Mosinee, Wisconsin, May 1, 1950.
As part of the American Legion's "Day Under Communism," the editor of the Mosinee Times was "forced" to print this pink-hued newspaper that praised the virtues of Communist leader Joseph Stalin. Courtesy of the Library Division, State Historical Society of Wisconsin.
Scene from the motion picture, I was a Communist for the F.B.I., 1951.
The plot of this movie was loosely based on the memoirs of Matt Cvetic, a Pittsburgh steelworker who had been recruited by the F.B.I. to infiltrate his union, a Communist organization. While his family worries that he has "gone pinko," Cvetic, played by Frank Lovejoy, learns about the evil duplicity of the Communist leaders and successfully saves a naive schoolteacher from their clutches. Produced by Warner Brothers to placate Senator Joe McCarthy and the House Committee on Un-American Activities, the film was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary. Courtesy of the Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research.
Pressbook for the motion picture, Walk a Crooked Mile, 1948
Walk a Crooked Mile is one of several Atomic Age movies whose plot involved Communist spies trying to steal America's atomic secrets. Done in a documentary style, it details the efforts of the F.B.I. and Scotland Yard to defeat a Communist spy ring trying to get information from American nuclear scientists. Courtesy of the Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research.
Lobby card for the motion picture, The Thief, 1952.
In this film, Ray Milland plays a nuclear physicist who works for the Atomic Energy Commission and is persuaded by enemy agents to steal atomic secrets for the Russians. In this scene, he is taking photographs of secret documents, which are later found in the hands of a dead Russian spy and traced back to him. After accidentally killing an F.B.I. agent, Milland's character regrets his actions and turns himself in to the F.B.I. Courtesy of the Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research.
Photographic still from the motion picture, Invasion U.S.A., 1952.
Although the Soviet takeover of the United States is just a dream in this movie, the film did bring to life the worst fears of many Americans. In this scene, the Soviets study a map of America plotted with intended atomic bomb targets. Courtesy of the Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research.
Photographic still from the motion picture, Dr. Strangelove or: How I Stopped Worrying and Learned to Love the Bomb, 1963.
In a deliberate contrast from movies like Invasion U.S.A., Dr. Strangelove presents renegade Americans planning to bomb the Soviet Union. Considered anti-establishment at the time, the film was meant to be an indictment of the United States government and its policies. In this scene, President Muffley (played by Peter Sellers) and other government officials study a map of the U.S.S.R. that shows the paths of American atomic bombers. All but one of these planes are shot down before they reach their intended target. The last plane drops its bomb, which sets the Russian "Doomsday Machine" into motion and brings about the end of the world. Courtesy of the Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research.
Photographic still and lobby card for the motion picture, My Son John, 1952.
This film was an effort by Paramount Pictures to demonstrate its patriotism and denounce Communism. The story centers around John Johnson, a federal agency worker who becomes a Communist spy. John lies to his mother when she has him swear on a Bible that he is not Communist, but in the end, John cannot betray his country and confesses his guilt to the F.B.I. Shortly afterward, he is shot and killed by Russian agents on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. Courtesy of the Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research.
Photographic still from the motion picture, The Iron Curtain, 1948.
Based on the true story of Igor Gouzenko, a code clerk at the Soviet embassy in Canada who had defected to the West, The Iron Curtain was the first politcal spy film after World War II to center around Russian espionage. In this scene, Gouzenko, played by Dana Andrews, is threatened by a Russian. Courtesy of the Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research.
Photographic still from the motion picture, The Red Menace, 1949.
This film illustrates in a documentary style how the Communist party recruits gullible Americans with promises of sex and money. Courtesy of the Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research.
You will see film clips of atomic blasts that will SCARE!, scenes of life immediately after an atomic attack that will FRIGHTEN!, and information on the Communist plot to take over America that will leave you PARALYZED WITH FEAR!
Operation Ivy (bomb test at Bikini Atoll).
Operation Cue (effects of A-bomb on everyday items).
Medic (dramatization of life immediately after an A-bomb from doctor's point of view).

Illustration from the pressbook for the motion picture, The Invasion of the Body Snatchers, 1956.
Although there is no mention of Communism in The Invasion of the Body Snatchers, this film was seen as an anti-Communist attack. In the movie, alien creatures use plant-like pods to produce zombie-like replicas of people who have no individual identity and are integrated into a mindless group, a description many felt aptly described Communism. Courtesy of the Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research.
Promotional pamphlet for the book, Communist-Socialist Propaganda in American Schools
By Verne P. Kaub, 1955.
Verne Kaub argued that the National Education Association endorsed principles based on "anti-American atheistic philosophies." He believed he had proof, gleaned from NEA publications, that the NEA was indoctrinating children with Communist ideology. Courtesy of the Archives Division, State Historical Society of Wisconsin.
How Red is the National (Federal) Council of Churches?
Published by the American Council of Christian Laymen, Madison, Wisconsin, ca. 1950.
Founded by Madison, Wisconsin resident, Verne P. Kaub, the American Council of Christian Layman sought to remove Communism from the pulpit. This pamphlet listed members of the Federal Council of Churches presumed to have Communist affiliations and called for Christian Americans to protect their churches from becoming "wings of the Communist-Socialist movement." Courtesy of the Archives Division, State Historical Society of Wisconsin.
Reds Threaten U.S. Youth Published by the National Research Bureau, Chicago, Illinois, 1960.
The group of businessmen who wrote this pamphlet felt that too many American students did not understand the difference between capitalist and Communist economies, and that this lack of education would make it easier for "Reds" to control young Americans' minds. Courtesy of the Library Division, State Historical Society of Wisconsin.
Second Report: How the Milwaukee Sentinel Exposed Milwaukee Communists Published by the Milwaukee Sentinel, 1946.
Between September and November of 1946, the Sentinel reported almost daily on Communist attempts to take over Milwaukee unions. After their expose was done, they printed the articles in two reports. This one includes the articles from late October to late November. Courtesy of the Library Division, State Historical Society of Wisconsin.
Your Part in the Fight Against Communism By D.F. Moran, published by Liguorian Publications, Liguori, Missouri, 1962.
In this little booklet, Dr. Moran described the evils of Communism, explained how "unrestrained intellectual and religious liberals" had popularized Communist philosophies in America, and outlined rational steps the reader could take to report a suspected Communist. Courtesy of the Library Division, State Historical Society of Wisconsin.
"Stalin over Wisconsin"
Editorial Cartoon published in the Milwaukee Sentinel, September 23, 1946.
Frank Marasco's cartoon illustrated the Milwaukee Sentinel's belief that the Communists were interested in controlling Wisconsin (supposedly called "District 18" by the Soviets) and were infiltrating Milwaukee labor organizations such as the United Automobile Workers (CIO) Local 248 at the Allis-Chalmers Manufacturing Company.. Courtesy of the Archives Division, State Historical Society of Wisconsin.
"Education NEA Style: Why Johnny can't read, write, or think for himself."
(Depicts teacher pouring a bottle of 'communist, socialist propaganda' into a child's head while a bottle of 'American history, tradition, and heritage' sits on the shelf.)
Probably published in the Milwaukee Sentinel, ca. 1955.
During the 1950s, teachers and other academics were viewed as being especially vulnerable to Communist propaganda. Many believed the teacher's organization, the National Education Association, to be a Communist front. Foes of Communism considered NEA teachers dangerous because of their close proximity to children with impressionable minds. Courtesy of the Archives Division, State Historical Society of Wisconsin.
"Rosenbergs Die in Chair" Wisconsin State Journal, Madison, Wisconsin, June 20, 1953
Although much of the anti-Communist rhetoric to which Americans were exposed during the Atomic Age was based on fiction or conjecture, actual cases of Soviet espionage intensified fears of Communism and atomic warfare. Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were accused of being part of a spy ring that stole American atomic secrets. They were found guilty of espionage, sentenced to death, and executed on June 20, 1953. Recently released Soviet documents have shown that Ethel was innocent. Courtesy of Paul Boyer.

United States Senator Joe McCarthy of Wisconsin gave a name to the hysteria of anti-Communism that took hold of America in the 1950s. After his election to the Senate in 1946, McCarthy decided to make a name for himself by mounting a crusade against Communism. He achieved national fame in February, 1950 when he announced that he knew the names of 205 Communist spies in the Truman administration. This announcement shocked the American public, who only months before had learned that the Soviet Union possessed atomic bombs. For the next four years, McCarthy tried to ferret out Communists in the federal government and the entertainment industry. He destroyed careers and reputations, and few were willing to challenge him until his ruthless behavior and unethical tactics were exposed in televised hearings in 1954. McCarthy's search for traitors has been described as a witch hunt because the people he accused were never proven to be Communists or spies.
McCarthy's Wisconsin roots were not a factor in his decision to lead the nation's anti-Communist crusade. Wisconsin, unlike neighboring states, did not pass any anti-Communist legislation during the McCarthy era, nor did the State of Wisconsin harass those with possible Communist connections.
Joe McCarthy and his chief counsel Roy Cohn, Washington D.C., 1954.
From April through June 1954, McCarthy and the United States Army fought a public and televised battle in the chambers of the Senate Subcommittee on Investigations. The Army accused McCarthy of exerting improper pressure on its officers in an attempt to win preferential treatment for a member of McCarthy's staff who had been drafted into the Army. McCarthy accused Army officials of using blackmail and bribery to prevent him from exposing Communists in its Signal Corps. For the first time, many Americans got to see McCarthy's frightening outbursts, crude personal attacks, and windy speeches. Even Wisconsin newspapers which had supported McCarthy called his behavior "brutal" and "inexcusable." The Army-McCarthy hearings led to the senator's downfall. He died three years later in 1957.Courtesy of the Visual Material Archives, Archives Division, State Historical Society of Wisconsin.

The guy on reception when we got there was lovely, but when we got to our room in Leeson Lodge, it seemed new and clean but poorly constructed and poorly thought out, such as: Bathroom door won't close as it had no locking mechanism Cannot fully open wardrobe as its too close to the bed Several mirrors, but all are in the bathroom Only one coathook, also in the bathroom Random ladder at the top of the stairs- good thing we didn't bring kids as this would be a major hazard

I liked the internet – Having internet access through a good computer available at the hotel was great.
They helped me find my way to were I was going – I was there for an out of town convention (I was too late to book a room in the town of the convention). They helped me with maps and such to the convention center.
Having internet access available was great – Having internet access through a good computer available at the hotel was great.
Though near the airport this is a very quite place to stay. Indoor pool and hot tub usable even in February - great. Staff was wonderful and very helpful, a joy to be with.
We stayed at this hotel on the way back home and found it to be just fine for our family's needs. The pool was WARM and was just what the kids needed after riding in the car all day. The service was fine overall. We felt safe and the place was fairly quiet. Comfortable, clean rooms were nice. Close by the falls and near other attractions. Overall, with price and quality, it was worth the extra miles to get there.
Nothing fancy here, but a great place to stay. The people were very friendly and did all they could to make my trip a good one. Snowed everyday but I had a great time considering this was a work trip. The indoor pool was warm and the Hot tub...hot. Very close to the airport so you couldn't be late for a flight unless you tried.Don't forget to stop by the Anchor Bar to get those real "Buffalo Wings". They are delicious.
In summary I was a bit unnerved by some of the online reviews of the property that I read, but was pleasently surprised. It's a good place for a night's sleep at a reasonable price.
I gave it above average because I think for what it is and what you pay you get a little more than you might expect.The rooms are big.The room was clean... The shower had GREAT pressure and really got me going in the morning. The continental breakfast which was included was well stocked and adequate. There is an indoor pool.
Stayed here for the second time while flying out of Buffalo Airport. Nice rooms and quiet.
The setup was great – We extended our stay and the staff notified us of a cancellation so we wouldn't have to change hotels. For our purposes, the setup was great - it was a rainy visit, but having the indoor pool area gave us space to walk around and get out of our room. Played cribbage at one of the conversation groups in the atrium area. Very convenient to Mizzou. Glad we chose this hotel - when I think about it the staff actually is what made the trip - they were awesome!

Dr. Michael P. Smith named Superintendent of Blessed John Paul II Catholic SchoolsMost Rev. Samuel J. Aquila, Bishop of Fargo, announced today the hiring of Dr. Michael P. Smith as Superintendent of the Blessed John Paul II Catholic Schools.
Most Rev. Samuel J. Aquila, Bishop of Fargo, announced today the hiring of Dr. Michael P. Smith as Superintendent of the Blessed John Paul II Catholic Schools.
Dr. Smith earned his doctorate in education from Saint Mary's University in Minneapolis, where he also acquired his master's degree. He received his bachelor's degree in Spanish and Elementary Education at Saint John's University in Collegeville, Minn. His doctoral dissertation addressed Differentiated Instruction and Teacher Flow.
In a letter to Blessed John Paul II Catholic School board members, Bishop Aquila wrote that he is confident Dr. Smith, "will continue the good work we have begun in the Blessed John Paul II Catholic Schools through our ongoing strategic planning process. He has experience teaching and serving as a principal both in the United States and abroad. He will begin his position as Superintendent this summer as we begin the 2012-2013 academic year."
Deacon David Haney has served as interim superintendent since May 3, 2010. "After Dr. Smith joins us this summer," Bishop Aquila noted in the letter, "Deacon David Haney will continue in the diocesan positions of Chairman of the Board for the Blessed John Paul II Catholic Schools and Superintendent of Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Fargo."
Other recent changes in the administration of JPII Catholic Schools include the naming of Lori Hager as Director of Marketing, Recruitment and Admissions and the revision of Mary Beth Traynor's position toward a greater focus on school accreditation. Her new title is Director of Accreditation and Student Services. She and Cindy Hutchins, principal of Nativity Elementary, Fargo, will serve as co-chairs of the accreditation steering committee.
Blessed John Paul II Catholic Schools include Shanley High School, Sullivan Middle School, and Nativity and Holy Spirit elementary schools, all in Fargo. A future elementary school is planned for the new site of Holy Cross Catholic Church in West Fargo. The new site of St. Benedict's Catholic Church in the Horace area will also allow for a future elementary school.

A recently completed survey of the University of Evansville's 2012 graduating class found that 92 percent are employed or in graduate school.
The survey, a collaborative effort between UE's Center for Career Development, Office of Alumni and Parent Relations, academic departments, and the National Student Clearinghouse, produced career information on 87 percent of the 583 members of the Class of 2012 (including December 2011, May 2012, and July 2012 graduates).
Highlights of the survey include:
The numbers stand in contrast to those on a national level. In 2012, the Associated Press reported than half of recent college graduates are unemployed or underemployed, and The New York Times reported in 2011 than the median annual income of recent graduates was $26,756 for jobs that required a college degree.
"At a time when there is much talk about the challenging job market for recent college graduates, as well as students' preparedness to enter the work force, our survey of the Class of 2012 paints a remarkably positive picture," said UE President Thomas A. Kazee. "This is our first effort to launch an extensive, collaborative survey among several campus offices and national clearinghouses to gather data on our 2012 graduates, and we're thrilled to find such encouraging results."
"The outcomes of this survey are a testament to the academic excellence and professionalism of students who graduate from the University of Evansville," Kazee added, "as well as the efforts of faculty and employees to prepare students for future success."
As part of the Big Freeze affordability and career development initiative launched in August 2012, UE's Center for Career Development added new staff and opportunities to help students succeed after graduation. Current students now can pursue the Advanced Career Education (ACE) Certificate to hone their professional skills, and graduating seniors and new alumni can sign up for the UE Connect alumni mentoring program.
All Center for Career Development services, ranging from résumé and cover letter assistance to mock interviews to the UE JobLink database, are free to students and alumni.
The full survey on the Class of 2012, which includes information on methodology and lists of employers and graduate schools, is available online at www.evansville.edu/careerdevelopment.
For more information or to schedule interviews with Kazee or Center for Career Development director Gene Wells, please contact Kristen Lund, UE director of news services, at 812-488-2241.
About the University of Evansville: The University of Evansville is a private, liberal arts-based university with a full-time undergraduate enrollment of approximately 2,400. UE's diverse student body represents 42 states and 46 countries.
U.S. News & World Report recognizes UE as a top 10 master's-granting university in the Midwest, and third in the region for "Great Schools, Great Prices." For more information, please visit http://www.evansville.edu.

Edwin Howland Blashfield (American, 1848-1936)
Music, ca. 1890s
Oil on canvas 28 in. x 15 in. (71.12 cm x 38.1 cm)
Crocker Art Museum, gift of the Ladies Museum Association1939.61.2
In the years between 1880 and 1914, many Americans felt that their country was heir to Greek, Roman, and Renaissance ideals and believed that art and architecture, in the service of such ideals, would serve as moral inspiration. One of the artists most closely associated with this "American Renaissance" was Edwin Howland Blashfield. He decorated state and federal buildings with murals and supplied paintings for the mansions of New York's elite. His lectures and 1913 book, Mural Painting in America, were integral to the American Renaissance revival of mural decoration. He ultimately became president of the Society of Mural Painters and of the Society of American Artists.
A native of New York, Blashfield trained in the United States and Europe. He studied briefly in Boston in the mid1860s and then traveled to Paris in 1867, where he trained privately with Léon Bonnat. Upon returning to the United States in 1881, he settled in New York. In 1887, he went abroad for six more years, spending time in Egypt, continental Europe, and England. During his European stays, he exhibited regularly at the Paris Salon and also at the Royal Academy in London. In 1893, he returned to the United States and garnered national recognition for his murals at the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago.
The easel paintings that Blashfield produced often related to his mural work, but also included costumed genre scenes, portraits, views of antiquity, and allegorical subjects in architectural settings. In this painting, music is personified by a woman wearing a Greek chiton and draped in rich, red fabric. The frieze-like format enhances the overall sense of antiquity and makes the figure appear integral to a larger architectural scheme.

Businessman Threatens To Sue Blogger For Defamation; Blogger Says 'Bring It On'
from the may-no-bull-go-un-effed-with dept
Another day, another blogger being sued for defamation. There are a couple of differences here, however. To begin with, this blogger (Billy Jones) is welcoming the lawsuit (albeit in the way a raccoon frozen in the headlights "welcomes" an oncoming vehicle). His statement in response to the lawsuit threat, via Jim Romenesko, reads as follows:
I look forward to going to court against Rocco Scarfone. After all, I have no assets, nothing to lose, nothing of value. What are they going to take from me — 7 chickens?The other difference in this case is that the law firm (Rossabi, Black and Slaughter) threatening to sue the blogger has actually pointed out specific statements its client has objections to, rather than relying simply on vague claims, bluster and intimidation. The letter Jones received lists each objectionable statement, along with the blog posts they came from. (Pictures of the letter here and here.)
Here's the letter in full.
Dear Mr. Jones,
Our firm represents Rocco Scarfone. This letter serves as my client's notice that your blog, greensboroperformingarts.blogspot.com recently published false and defamatory statements regarding my client as follows:
1. False and Defamatory Statements contained in the September 28, 2012 post, "Rocky Scarfone, More Failed Greensboro Leadership":
(a) "Several of my biker friends there who grew up with Scarfone in New Jersey told me of his underworld connections."
(b) "There's been a mafia presence in Greensboro for over 50 years but until Rocky came to town they let the biker[s] be."
(c ) "I mentioned Scarfone's underworld connections in a blog thread at Yes! Weekly."
(d) "A simple search for [R]ocky [S]carfone Greensboro will tell you all kinds of things you may or may not know about the man a simple background check could have warned 'Greensboro leaders' about long before he tried to cover up shootings in his night clubs, drug dealings and other crimes against the citizens of Greensboro."
(e) "Nor do I eat at Hams or any other establishment I know to be owned by Rocky Scarfone. I don't knowingly spend my money with mobsters."
2. False and Defamatory Statements contained in the December 30, 2013 post, "Rocco Scarfone Partners With Councilman Zack Matheny: Greensboro House of Blues":
(a) "Scarfone… is said to be a former prize fighter who is said to have been banned from professional boxing for fixing fights and taking the fall as a young man in New Jersey with known connections to human trafficking and the importation of illegal aliens, has a history of covering up shootings in his clubs, and was involved in tax evasion in multiple states…"
(b) "Rocco is and will always be a gangster."
(c ) "George Hartzman asks Councilman Zack Matheny if Matheny has a business relationship with the gangster, Rocco Scarfone."
3. False and Defamatory Statements contained in the January 17, 2014 post, "Rocco Scarfone Steals Woman's Wedding Ring And What Really Happened To Joey Medaloni":Rocco "Rocky" Scarfone (born Joe Baffa) is a prominent business owner in the Greensboro, NC area and has also spent a considerable amount of time helming a Christian ministry called Lighthouse Outreach. What Scarfone seems most interested in excising is anything that implies he still has Mafia connections or otherwise portrays him as a "gangster." Scarfone did, at one time, have Mob connections. His own biographical book details his youth as a member of the Mob as he attempted to follow in his father's footsteps. The following is taken from the book description for Scarfone's "House of Cards."
(a) "I was told a story recently about how local mobster Rocco Scarfone collected debts on a business deal that went bad by forcefully taking the wedding band from the finger of the wife of the man with whom he'd made the deal."
(b) "Rocco's primary business is and has long been money laundering."
As a result of your publication of false and defamatory statements about Mr. Scarfone, I demand that you publish, in the main section of your blog, a retraction of all the statements referred herein, along with any apology to Mr. Scarfone. If you fail to publish a retraction and an apology as requested within ten (10) days, I will sue for, among other things defamation.
Very truly yours,
Amiel J. Rossabi
A biography that reads like fiction, winner of the "O Georgia Award", endorsed by numerous prominent public figures, House Of Cards delivers the Mafia in a unique manner. After five generations of blood shed, Rocky is born handicapped, struggles to walk and be like his .45 carrying father, and, just when he realizes his goal, loses his father to a bloody Mafia Hit. The course of events will soon produce the circumstances for Rocky to become the first to seek an end to his family's long standing Mafia ties.This would seem to indicate that Jones' statements about Scarfone's "underworld connections" are based on fact. The argument would then shift to Jones' implications that Scarfone is still connected to the Mafia.
Many of the other troublesome quotes are, again, based on factual occurrences. Jones notes in his
His accusations about Scarfone being in the money laundering business are only tenuously linked. The nightclubs Scarfone owns once belonged to Joey Medaloni, who was indicted on federal charges of falsely obtaining loans.
As for the accusation of human trafficking, Jones points to a story in Yes! Weekly that details the criminal activities of Scarfone's partners in the nightclub business, one of which (George Harrison) is tied to a staffing company that was raided by ICE for deploying undocumented immigrants. Again, this is a very loose "tie" that has been polished into more accusatory tones by Jones.
The shooting coverup statement also has a factual basis. Scarfone's strip club, LAX, had its liquor license suspended after a shooting in the parking lot. A press release from the city of Raleigh described his club personnel's actions this way.
A Nov. 13 press release issued from Raleigh characterizes club management's response to the shooting as a "cover-up" and quotes Williams as saying, "The sworn affidavits received by the ABC Commission indicate that this business failed to assist victims of violence in their own parking lot and then covered up the shooting and destroyed evidence.The coverup was denied by Scarfone and his club's management, and nothing seems to have been conclusively proven (accusations were made about security tape alterations and the club staff's refusal to come to the aid of the shooting victim, and there are some discrepancies between the narrative and the police reports). But that's the thing about coverups: if done right, it looks as though nothing untoward has occurred. Again, Jones makes a statement and links to a news story that arrives at the same conclusion. It's hard to prove defamation when the accused has sources.
The "Rocco Scarfone is and always will be a gangster" is taken somewhat out of context, removing this leading sentence:
Scarfone, also a former Chippendales dancer, was convicted by a grand jury for extortion and five counts of fraud in 1987.Again, Jones links to an article detailing Scarfone's past as a dancer, as well as his indictments.
So, despite his legal team actually taking the time to detail each allegedly defamatory statement, there still seems to a be a lot of gray area for Jones to play in. But wishing for a head-on courtroom collision is never a good idea, even if you've got nothing but "seven chickens" to your name. There's more to a court battle than losing assets. There's a whole lot of intermediate bleeding that can be done, especially if the plaintiff is in a better financial position.
Scarfone is also more used to courtroom battles. Even his efforts in the youth ministry field have a litigious paper trail. He sued another minister, Tom Papania (along with Focus on the Family), for allegedly stealing his Mafia thug-to-man of God story and using it as his own. The court battle ran 31 months before Scarfone/Baffa dismissed it with prejudice. (Scarfone's entire battle with Papania spans 13 years in total according to emails he sent a colleague.) This battle even included a dispute over a domain name (tompapnia.com) which Scarfone had registered to "spread the truth" about Papania's alleged hijacking of Scarfone's life story. (ICANN found in favor of Scarfone.)
Scarfone has also been cited in court documents as a confidential informant, which would seem to suggest his underworld connections are more recent than his boyhood memoir indicates.
This is hardly an open-and-shut case for either party. Jones' posts are sometimes backed up by fact, while other times he's reporting hearsay. Jones seems to be relishing the chance to perform some discovery and expose Scarfone's "underworld connections" and (allegedly) criminal behavior. Scarfone's wish for Jones' blogging to vanish are understandable, especially if he abandoned a life of crime years ago. But there seems to be enough bad news floating around to suggest this maybe isn't the case.
Somewhat bafflingly, Scarfone's lawyer (he has apparently decided to cut loose the "fool" who represented him in his battle against Tom Papania) closes the letter with threats to sue for defamation "among other things." I'm not sure if that was included to make the threat seem "bigger" or if the law firm has something else in mind for Jones that it's not sharing with the rest of us. The ten-day window "granted" by the law firm for Jones to delete the offending posts and post an apology expires on Feb. 13th and, judging from Jones' call for more Scarfone dirt, it appears this will pass without compliance. I suppose shortly after that we'll find out what "other things" the law firm has in mind.
This is one of those odd ones where it appears someone just wants to shut down criticism but may actually have a case at the same time. If Scarfone is truly still dabbling in criminal behavior, I doubt he would want to face discovery. Then again, maybe he's truly clean, and like his blogging nemesis, truly has nothing to lose by going to court. Jones' posts definitely carry a malicious tone, something that doesn't help when fighting defamation charges and much of what he links to only tenuously matches his actual claims. Boiling it all down, I don't truly see a clear good guy or bad guy. Both parties seem to carry a certain amount of moral turpitude, and any further reports I have on this will mostly be based on my (admittedly unhealthy) desire to witness a good fight.

Wheezing can be a normal healthy response to an unhealthy environment. Or, wheezing can be a sign of asthma. I'm Dr. Alan Greene and I want to talk with you for a moment about how to tell the difference, what causes wheezing anyway, and when is it healthy and when is it not.
Well to understand that, first let's all take a deep breath together (inhales). When you breathe in, the air comes through your nose or mouth, through the big windpipe and breaks into 2 big bronchi, one into each lung. And from there they break into a whole bunch of little, smaller bronchioles. It's almost like a tree's branches branching out. And those bronchioles are where the wheezing happens.
Let's look at a bronchiole. Here's one of those small airways. Now if you happen to walk into a cloud of something that's toxic, your body is going to respond instantly to try to protect you. The first thing that will happen is the muscles around the bronchioles will tighten, will constrict down almost like a boa constrictor, and you get the tight airways. If that toxic cloud is still there, to protect your delicate tissues deep in your lungs, swelling of the lining will happen. Inflammatory stuff to help protect you from those toxins. And if it's still there, still irritating, mucus will begin to be secreted to be able again to capture and protect you from those toxins. That's wheezing.
Asthma happens when your airways are hyper-responsive. When they're twitchy. When they're hyper-alert and they respond to something that's not truly dangerous. The problem with that is when your bronchioles are constricted and swollen and has mucus in them, that narrow little opening is hard to breathe through. You have to work to breathe, especially to breath out. And that hard breathing through a narrow passageway is what creates the sound we know as wheezing.

Review by Mike
Quality Price Value
My lower-stars for Price/Value is possibly a personal-thing, as I'm relatively new to Tig (but have been welding stupid-stuff for >20years). The Tig doesn't behave ANYTHING like Mig or Stick, it's closer to a weak plasma-cutter in operation... good in someways, not-so-good in others. If you're looking for that one "do-all" welder, don't even think about this TIG200, get yourself a MIG175 instead. My MIG175 is probably my most-favorite tool in my garage, kind-of a swiss army knife of welders. This TIG200 is more like a delicate-Ferrari than a monster-truck. This TIG200 does a great job on fine-detail, but you'll waste WAY-more consumables (gas, tungsten, rod) than you'd think; at-least I do versus my Mig. Also, I'm surprised (shocked) at how much the Tig heats-up the work, I wasn't expecting that at-all... so, you have to bounce-around making dinky-tacks all over the place so-as-not to heat up sheetmetal. Each time you touch that pedal or switch, you're throwing gas out... before AND after. So 20,000 spots later, you're out of gas (where you could have laid 1"-long MIG-beads constant before overheating the work). Cleanup is MUCH less for TIG than MIG, but I keep finding I have to go-back over work with the TIG after grinding, because it's too-low.
This TIG has it's place, and in the hands of a professional it's probably a great piece of equipment, but it's not as versatile to me as my MIG175.

Initially, I thought I'd be posting a standard review of 8 Pounds, but am still not entirely sure how to go about that. Reviewing short stories is HARD, yo.
You guys all know that I already enjoy Holm's writing (since I've talked about it before here and here), and as evidenced by our limited interactions on twitter, he's a pretty neat guy.
So, having experienced Holm's The Collector series (two books so far and I'm EAGERLY ANTICIPATING the third [only seven months to wait!]), I thought I knew what I'd be in for when I decided to read some short stories that my illness addled brain would be able to focus on.
That was my first mistake.
Second mistake? Reading in bed while trying to fall asleep.
Third mistake (yeah, I made a few)? Not taking the "Horror and Suspense" part of the tagline seriously.
Because, while The Collector books are full of dark humour, they look like sunshine and
unicorns dodisharkicorns and rainbows next to the fuligin cloak* that is 8 Pounds.
No, I'm not even kidding.
Back to the mistakes! I should never have read the story "A Better Life" right before falling asleep. It led to the WORST EVER, most terrifying dreams. Even now (a few days later and in the broad light of day) is still pretty haunting. I hope I never have to worry about mice in my house, or I'll be sure that this story is playing out in real life.
Also haunting me (probably FOREVER, so thanks for nothing, Mr Holm) is the story "The Well" which…I don't even have words. It's only ~800 words long, but its emotional impact is that of something with thousands of words of set up and plotting. I mean, I write blog posts that are over 800 words long ALL THE TIME, but nothing I've written will have the potential to stay in your mind long after your eyes leave the page. Not like this, anyway.
While these two stories alone are worth the price of admission, another must read is the titular story. In "8 Pounds" a couple of old friends are laughing over drinks and arguing whether 8 Pounds is the going rate or weight of a human head. I was giggling at it until the last few sentences, when I was hit with the literary equivalent of a junk punch. Dude.
I guess what I'm saying is this: even if you're not (or THINK you're not) into crime stories or horror stories or suspense stories as a general rule, you get 8 stories in this collection for 99¢. I don't usually think of myself as a fan of crime fiction, but it didn't impair my enjoyment in the slightest. Yes, you'll find some of the standard genre tropes inside, but they're all done in such an enjoyable way that maybe you won't notice. Give it a chance – you have nothing to lose but a dollar and a few hours of your time, and might even find a story that grabs you and sticks with you.
* fuuuu, Kate's going to be thrilled that I'm speaking in Wolfeisms
