Smelled up the whole kitchen
By JWH
from N.C.
The worst smell I have ever encountered with any type of treats. I could not stand to open the container. My dogs would not eat after smelling. They smelled rotten. I bought 2 on sale, and wasted my money.
Worst fowl smell ever!
My dogs would not eat after smelling the product.The odor was so bad, it smelled up my kitchen. Absolutely the worst.

Great stuff!
By wkgonit
from MD
My two small dogs will do Anything for a piece of this tripe. Really, they would stand on their heads for it if they could figure out how to do it.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Best Price Found for Freeze-Dried Salmon
By Francesca
from Pleasant Hill , CA
Product color is much darker than typical freeze-dried salmon, but my hope is that it still qualifies as raw. Online description said "freeze-dried," while package description said "gently dried." Need more accurate online description. My cat does seem to enjoy it as a snack, and the price is great.
By Roodle
from Downingtown, PA
Our dog has colitis and is on a salmon and potato diet. I am always on the look out for treats for him. I love these. Sometimes they came in a hard form and other times in a softer freeze dried form - not sure why - but they do the trick. He loves them and his stomach has been in good shape. They are so perfect, I have them on auto buy
Way too hard for a cat
By Miniature horse breeder
from Caldwell, Texas
Have 6 cats, 1 toy pom dog & 28 horses...these filets are incredibly hard, even when soaked in warm water. No way could any of the cats eat it. I would be concerned feeding these to a large dog due to some of the pieces not breaking up and being a choke or irritation risk. Too bad as all my cats/dog love salmon...I'll just have to keep buying the expensive ones as I only feed natural treats. Perhaps if more moisture was left in them it would be a better product for cats.
Not for small animals
By Sampson's Buddy
from Tennessee
I bought four containers of these treats for my large lab and he loved them. Some of the chunks were really big, and I don't know how a cat would have been able to handle that without some help to break it down in size. The other thing to realize is these things are freeze-dried, so there is absolutely no moisture in them at all, so be sure to have some fresh water near by so your pet can wash the treat down. My biggest complaint is the smell. The fishy smell is powerful, but had my big boy's nose moving a million miles and hour with interest...mine not so much.
Freeze Dried Beef Lung Great!
By Buckeye Sally
from Ohio
I use it for training and rewards. I have show dogs and have yet to meet a dog that doesn't love it..
Poor quality
By BobbyBobWebb
from Asheville, NC
The treats are very tough. They were purchased for my cats, but the cats eventually gave up on trying to eat them. Unfortunately I will have to discard the remainder.

Cooking from the Blogs
I'm continuing to work part time, which works beautifully for us all. I am supposed to start full time again from Jan 1 but am hoping for a few weeks' extension. We'll see how that goes. Fingers crossed!
Here are some yummy stuff from other blogs.
I made this egg curry when we had some friends over for dinner. It turned out so well! The eggs were gone in no time and soon I was left with just the gravy! I should have boiled some more eggs and kept them aside for adding later. Lesson learnt! Here is the original recipe. Thank you, Nandita, for sharing this awesome curry recipe!
The tomato kolambu was delicious! Here is the recipe from the very enthusiastic Supriya. I cut down the number of green and red chillies. My mixer was giving me trouble so the grinding part did not come out well. The end result was a slightly runny gravy but the taste more than made up for the texture. Thank you, Sup! I hope you are having loads of fun in India!
Now that Nitin's mom is here, I hope to post some Konkani recipes soon!
Merry Christmas! Happy Hanukkah! Happy Holidays, All!

Wish you and little M a great 2007. Working full time will be no problem - she will be 5 months by then- i too began then.
In hind sight I feel, if we delay for long, it makes it more difficult for both

Vani, good luck with getting back to work full time. I know how that feels after maternity leave. I am guessing Nitin's mom is your MIL, baby M should be in capable hands.
Happy Holidays!

Hi Vaniamma,your parents left!:( Oh! I kinda miss them too.Your dad's image with the news paper and the cat!Waa..!
Both dishes look mouthwatering!Do you have Sumeet mixer? If not,get one from Innoconcept.com the best Indian grinder ever.I have Summet and Preethi Eco Chef,but don't like the second one.
I can't believe a year is almost gone so fast.Good luck with your job from new year.Nitin is Konkani?Best of both worlds,eh?;D
Well,I am off to FL Sunday.Will post my last dish on 27th for Jihva and say good bye to 2006! Nee is in NY with parents.
Have a great Christmas and very happy and properous New year. Health and happiness to all of you and kisses to M! Love you Vani.Have fun darling and I will see later!:))

Vani, have a great xmas and new year. Dish looks good even though i don't eat eggs...~smile~...take care okay

- Vani said...
Artnavy-Hi! Long time no hear! Hope you're well! Thanks for your wishes. Happy Holidays to you and your family too!
You're right. The longer you take to get back to work, the more attached the kid gets and the more difficult the separation. I am hoping though, that I could work part time for a little while longer. I don't want to miss her firsts but I still want to get out of the house and work for a few hours. But of course, that's in a utopian world and not very likely to happen! :)
- December 22, 2006 at 4:18:00 PM EST
- Vani said...
ISG- thanks for your wishes! Yup, Nitin's mom is my mil and M is in very capable hands. Even my fil helps with the baby. They both are awesome people! No worries there.
Happy Holidays, ISG! And a happy and healthy New Year too!
Dilipji- thank you! Happy holidays to you and your family too. I hope the weather in England is behaving well! :)
- December 22, 2006 at 4:22:00 PM EST
- Vani said...
Ashamma- yeah, the parents left!
:( You miss them too, huh?! That's sweet!
I don't have a Summet mixer. I try to manage with the Oster one that I have. This time my mom insisted on buying me a jar for dry grinding and that seems to be working well for the most part. (I made the kulambu before I got the dry grinder)
Yup, Nitin's Konkani and I love his mom's cooking. So Konkani recipes coming up soon! :)
I knew Nee was in the US, did not realize it was NY. I'm sure she's having a blast here! :)
How fun that you're off to Florida! Enjoy the hot, sunny weather and try to send some this way too! Happy Holidays and wishing you all a heathy and prosperous New Year!! Take care, sweetheart! Love ya!

Swapna- Hi!A happy new year to you too! It's a little baby girl, who is now 5 months old already! With my in-laws being here, it has been relaticely easy with my parents leaving. Thanks for adding me to your blog! :)
Linda- hi! Happy New Year! I had been ordered bedrest prior to delivery, due to some complications. So my parents came early to help me out.
Indian food is a developed taste, I think. ALso, most people are hesitant to try cooking Indian because of the myriad ingredients that go into each dish. I hope ypu get to try something soon! :)

Attitudes toward slavery changed in 1831
February 13, 2013
Editor's Note: "Countdown to Statehood" is a weekly series highlighting the historical events that eventually led to West Virginia becoming a state on June 20, 1863....
My, my, my...some of you all beat up on poor old Foster when he is just telling the truth. Racism does not exist anymore, it is people disagreeing with people. We also did not land on the moon, that was filmed in a studio in LA, and there was not holocaust. However, I do agree with him that the racial card is played way too much against whites by the NAACP and that they are being called out for being racist too by many conservative radio announcers that are not afraid of the NAACP. My, that was a mouth full.

why would Blacks care about John Brown? the first thing that lunatic did in his raid was shoot the only freed black in Harpers Ferry! "Friend" of black folk indeed...

I tell you what surprises me, the black population does nothing to pay homage to John Brown who sacrificed his life while supporting their freedom from slavery. Not one mention of his name or any rememberance of his execution or death. It's all about MLK.

....Early 1831 saw an event in Virginia that changed many people's attitudes toward slavery....quite frankly, we have had years of laws and EEO regulations to make everyone equal in the liberals minds. I am tired of having this stuff shoved on me. Get real, 100 years from now there will still be claims that the whites hate the blacks and the blacks hate the hispanics. It never ends because the liberal media and special interest groups will keep it going.

The Ninth Amendment: It Means What It Says
Randy E. Barnett
Georgetown University Law Center
Texas Law Review, Vol. 85, No. 1, 2006
Boston Univ. School of Law Working Paper No. 05-14
Although the Ninth Amendment appears on its face to protect unenumerated individual rights of the same sort as those that were enumerated in the Bill of Rights, courts and scholars have long deprived it of any relevance to constitutional adjudication. With the growing interest in originalist methods of interpretation since the 1980s, however, this situation has changed. In the past twenty years, five originalist models of the Ninth Amendment have been propounded by scholars: the state law rights model, the residual rights model, the individual natural rights model, the collective rights model, and the federalism model. This Article examines thirteen crucial pieces of historical evidence that either directly contradict the state law and residual rights models, undercut the collective rights model, or strongly support the individual natural rights and federalism models. Evaluating the five models in light of this evidence establishes that the Ninth Amendment actually meant at the time of its enactment what it appears now to say: the unenumerated (natural) rights that people possessed prior to the formation of government, and which they retain afterwards, should be treated in the same manner as those (natural) rights that were enumerated in the Bill of Rights. In short, the Amendment is what it appears to be: a meaningful check on federal power and a significant guarantee of individual liberty.

Celebrity Central / Top 25 Celebs
Taylor Momsen
- 2000
'Who' Debut
Momsen lands the kid role of a lifetime as little Cindy Lou Who in the live action remake of How the Grinch Stole Christmas with Jim Carrey. Momsen's performance charms audiences and earns her a Young Artist Award nomination. She follows Grinch with family flicks Spy Kids 2 and Hansel & Gretel with Dakota Fanning.
- 2007
Going Indie
At 14, Momsen lands a supporting role in director Gus Van Sant's dark arthouse flick Paranoid Park, portraying the lustful girlfriend of a depressed skater suspected of murder. The risqué role, which includes a sex scene, is a departure from Momsen's squeaky clean image. "It's a totally different experience than anything I've ever done," Momsen tells Nylon magazine.
Gossip's 'It' Girl
Momsen's turn as Jenny Humphrey on the CW's Gossip Girl makes her a household name. As the innocent rival of Upper East Side Queen Bee Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester), "Little J" becomes a fan favorite. "I have two different modes: I have my on-set mode, and then I have...my Taylor mode," Momsen tells The New York Observer. "And when I'm in my Taylor mode, I forget that people still see me as Jenny. It takes a minute." The breakout hit costars Penn Badgley, Blake Lively, Chace Crawford and Ed Westwick.
- 2008
Gossip Girl Covers New York
The cast of Gossip Girl strips down for New York magazine, which calls the teen soap "the most awesomely awesome show ever." That week, the entire cast also lands on PEOPLE's Most Beautiful List. "[She's] pretty much perfect," Chace Crawford tells PEOPLE of his young costar.
Taylor Goes Edgy
The leggy blonde signs with IMG modeling agency and poses for an avant-garde spread for French magazine Crash. "I love high fashion," Momsen tells Blackbook. "It's been such a big part of my life, models and fashion, so it's really exciting to enter that world. It's a whole different ballgame." Trading her cutesy curls for a punk rock shag, Momsen goes glam goth as she makes her rounds on the red carpet party circuits.
- 2009
A 'Reckless' Pursuit
With her new look comes a new outspoken Momsen, who jumps center stage as lead singer and songwriter of the rock band, The Pretty Reckless."I know people were a little, um, taken aback," she says of her rock star persona. "But it wasn't me that changed – it was just that I decided to start being myself." The band, which performs on the Warped Tour, signs a record deal with Interscope.
- 2010
New 'Material'
Momsen leaves Jenny Humphrey behind to front the ad campaign for Madonna's Material Girl fashion line. "For one, it's Madonna so you know it's gonna be cool and working with Madonna and Lola has been an unbelievable experience," the actress-turned-rocker says of being styled by the mother-daughter design team.
- 2011
Goodbye, Girl
After five seasons on Gossip Girl, Momsen bids farewell to her acting career. Passionate about her band The Pretty Reckless, the actress focuses on music. "Anytime you have an opportunity to play music, whether it's in the studio or on the road, it's the best thing in the world," she tells ELLE.

Downtown Erie restaurant to close Wednesday
A downtown Erie restaurant in a prominent location is closing.
Under the Clock Bar & Grill, located on the ground floor of the Boston Store Place, 716 State St., will serve its last meals and drinks Wednesday, said general manager John Lombardo.
"I'm 75 years old," Lombardo said. "It's time for me to retire."
Lombardo has operated the restaurant since it opened in 2008. It is owned by Alley Cat Enterprises of Atlanta, and the decision to close was jointly made by Lombardo and Alley Cat officials, Lombardo said.
Three businesses are interested in buying the business and its liquor license, and taking over the lease, which runs through 2023, Lombardo said.
"If no deal is reached, everything goes to auction on Saturday," Lombardo said.
See Tuesday's Erie Times-News and GoErie.com for more coverage.

PHOENIX – A couple weeks ago, the Buffalo Bills' offensive line seemed to be emerging as the soul of the team. The unit set an aggressive tone. It was devastating in the run game and wasn't letting defenders get a paw on quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick.
Now somebody needs to save its soul.
"We had a great thing going," Bills coach Chan Gailey said Monday at the team's hotel in Phoenix. The Bills will work out at Arizona State's facilities this week in preparation for Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals.
"The ability that we had as an offense, to be able to adjust because of their experience and because of the time they've spent with each other on the offensive line, that's gone now."
Two O-line starters and two backups are injured, and a third-stringer who was pressed into duty Sunday in San Francisco might start at a position for the first time in his career.
"I hate to use a drastic word, but we're depleted there," Gailey said. "That was one of the strengths, we felt like, going into the season. ... We'll have to mix and match and do the best we can."
Already out are starting left tackle Cordy Glenn and starting right guard Kraig Urbik with ankle injuries and backup center/guard Colin Brown with a hamstring injury.
Urbik's replacement, Chad Rinehart, missed a practice last week with a calf injury. He struggled through pregame warmups and was pulled from the starting lineup right before Sunday's loss to the 49ers and replaced by Brown, who lasted a quarter.
Rinehart entered the game in the second quarter but eventually had to come out. Sam Young, listed as the third-string right tackle on the depth chart, finished the game at right guard.
Gailey said Rinehart will not practice Wednesday.
"We're gonna rest him Wednesday, but we think he's got a decent chance to play the game," the coach said.
"It's been pretty nuts so far," Bills center Eric Wood said. "We've had some injuries in the past, but they haven't come in waves like this. My rookie year, we were in bad shape. But I still don't think it was as bad as this.
"We got a pretty deep room, and I don't think we played terrible with backups playing and backups of backups. I felt like we still executed at times. It's the next-man-up philosophy."
Asked if the Bills would need to sign O-line help for the Cardinals game, Gailey replied, "Let's wait and see until the end of the week."
Defensive end Mark Anderson suffered a knee injury versus the 49ers. He went for a magnetic-resonance imaging test Monday to assess the knee.
Meanwhile, safety Jairus Byrd left the game late with a sore chest. He had been dealing with a sore hip, too. Gailey said Byrd has a chance to play Sunday.
Gailey on whether he thinks about his job security: "I want you to know I'm always worried about the job I do. I don't worry about employment. I worry about doing the job I've been hired to do. We haven't done an acceptable job the last couple weeks, and I understand that. We're in a production business. ... If we don't get it straightened out, it's gonna be a long, hard season.

text: Capable female characters have percolated through my life like a strong cup of coffee, and it is these women who inspired my creation of Sorcha Fariss, the protagonist of Spectyr. While there are plenty of other characters in the The Books Of The Order, Sorcha is the one I get the most comments about. Here are some of the fictional women who influenced her personality and history, as far as I can decode them. Welcome to her world. Sorcha is a complicated kind of gal; powerful and prickly, but with a vulnerable core that comes in large part from her past (which will be explored in further books.) When I first began to create her, I knew I wanted to explore what those determined female characters found in fantasy and science fiction might be like when they got a little older. After all, when you are tough and talented, there is bound to be a certain amount of arrogance that goes along with it. The seed idea for Sorcha came from my teenage years, when I played an almost terrifying red-haired fighter in my Dungeons & Dragons game. I loved that character because she was fearless and definitely more than a little reckless. She was always at the front of the fight but took care of her friends with great bravery. Women from the screen also contributed to Sorcha's formation. Ellen Ripley from the movie Alien burned herself into my consciousness. She was tall, competent and her job was everything to her. She faced terrible horrors, and felt them keenly—yet she still went on. She even went back for the cat. (Oh that pesky cat!) Another influence was undoubtedly Trinity from The Matrix. I loved how competent and tough she was, too—but despite that, she was open to love. That is the same kernel of vulnerability that Sorcha shares. As for literary influences, there are so many that it is hard to pick out just a couple. Paksenarrion from Elizabeth Moon's book Sheepfarmer's Daughter was the kind of woman who didn't let the circumstances of her life hold her back. Her rise through the ranks of a military organization somewhat mirrors Sorcha's own within the Order of the Eye and the Fist. There was also Morgaine from C. J. Cherryh's Gate of Ivrel. Morgaine was almost an anti-heroine, so fixated on her goal that the rest of the world didn't really seem to matter. She was also older than many heroines I had read about. Determination, strength, power, Sorcha has them all, but I wanted her to be more than that. Cosseted because of her potential, Sorcha's sheltered life has not really made her much of a social creature. In Sorcha and Raed's relationship, he is the diplomatic, sensitive person, while she is the one out of her depth. What would happen if you put a woman like that with a partner like Merrick, a younger, just as talented, but inexperienced man? In such conflicts lie the interesting stories. As the books move forward Sorcha begins to understand that she is not all powerful, and others have talents and abilities that matter, too. Slowly as the series progresses we get to see more and more of what makes her tick. I hope you will join me for the journey forward to find those cracks in her veneer. – Philippa Ballantine

Serves 4 |
Prep Time 25 minutes |
Cook Time 50 minutes
2 medium acorn squash, halved, seeds removed
1 Tbsp Eden Safflower Oil, for oiling the squash skin and baking pan
1 Tbsp Eden Extra Virgin Olive Oil, for sautéing vegetables
1/4 cup onion, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup celery, minced
1 cup Edensoy Unsweetened
2 cups water
1/4 tsp Eden Sea Salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 cup organic yellow corn grits (polenta), coarsely ground variety
1/4 tsp dried sage
1 pinch dried thyme
1 pinch dried rosemary
1/3 cup sunflower seeds, dry pan roasted
1/4 cup fresh parsley, minced
Preheat the oven to 350°. Lightly oil the squash skin with safflower oil. Lightly oil a baking pan. Place the squash, cut side down, in the baking pan. Bake for 30 minutes.
While the squash is baking, prepare the polenta stuffing. Heat up the olive oil in a medium saucepan and sauté the onions and garlic for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the celery and sauté 2 minutes. Add the Edensoy, water, sea salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Slowly whisk in the polenta, stirring constantly, and bring to a boil. Reduce the flame to medium-low and simmer for 20 minutes or until thick. Remove from the flame. Pulse the sunflower seeds in a blender until coarsely ground. Stir the sage, thyme and rosemary into the polenta. Add extra pepper or sea salt if desired.
Remove the squash from the oven, and turn over so that the cut side faces up. Fill each squash half with equal amounts of polenta. Sprinkle the ground sunflower seeds equally over the polenta. Garnish with equal amounts of parsley. Return to the oven and bake for another 15 to 20 minutes or until the topping begins to brown slightly. Remove and place on a serving platter.

A masked man walked into the M&T Bank branch office in the city's Newberry neighborhood on Monday afternoon and made off with an undisclosed amount of cash in a gray bag, city police said.
The suspect, who was described as black, between 5 feet, 8 inches to 6 feet tall, demanded money from clerk after walking into the bank at 2001 W. Fourth St. about 2:10 p.m., police said.
No one was injured, police said.

PHILIP A. HOLMES/Sun-Gazette
State police Cpl. Robert Brown, a member of the state police forensics division, arrives at the M&T Bank on West Fourth Street to process and photograph the crime scene shortly after the bank was robbed on Monday afternoon.
There was no mention of any weapon and one was not seen, police said.
The robber was wearing a navy blue sweatshirt with the name Hollister written across it as well as a dark ski mask and white gloves, police said.
It was unknown if any customers were in the bank at the time. The bandit last was seen heading west toward Funston Avenue, police were told.
Shortly after the holdup, officers stopped and questioned a man on a bike at Funston Avenue and King Street, but he was not the robber, police said.
Numerous customers were turned away since the bank closed following the holdup as officers interviewed employees and a state trooper processed and photographed the crime scene. The bank did not re-open on Monday, police said.

Close to 100 golfers made Friday's Economic Development Golf Tournament the most successful yet in the event's three-year history.
The annual tournament is geared at getting business leaders together to talk shop, enjoy a cool beverage and play the game they love.
Crowfield Golf and Country Club Head Professional Rob Brock brought refreshments to golfers in a limo golf cart that had portable coolers strapped down to some of its many seats. Meanwhile, Goose Creek Planning Director Sarah Hanson drove a specially equipped golf cart with built-in industrial coolers stocked with ice, bottled water and beverages.
Hanson said this makes her the most popular person on the course. This is her second year managing the beverage cart.
A cool breeze kept temperatures bearable for the first few hours. It was the antithesis of the week before, when heavy rains caused the tournament to be rescheduled.
"It's nice to get this big of a turnout," Brock said, adding it was the biggest turnout yet. "It's good for people to mingle."
The tournament lasted about four hours as golfers played a captain's choice game, meaning players on each team teed off. Wherever the best shot from the team landed is where the rest of the team took their successive shots from on the fairway and putting green.
Public officials made their fair share of appearances. Goose Creek Mayor Michael Heitzler and Mayor Pro-Tem Kimo Esarey were present during opening remarks as the golf carts lined up, but they did not appear to participate in the tournament.
However, fellow Goose Creek City Councilmember Jerry Tekac golfed while riding in a red Ohio State University "Buckeyes" themed cart.
Berkeley County Councilmember Caldwell Pinckney was another elected official participating.
Goose Creek Assistant City Administrator Jeff Molinari and city Recreation Director Gary Stuber were on a team as were Berkeley County School District Superintendent Rodney Thompson and BCSD Athletic Director Charlie Davis.
The Quality Beverage team finished in first place, Santee Cooper in second and Coach's Best Buy Motors in third. Google's Team 4 finished in last place.
The Closest to the Pin contest winners were Robert O'Steen of Google, C.J. King of Cheerwine, Terry Hughes of Berkeley County Water and Sanitation and Chris Williams of Quality Beverage.

What comes after Rock Star? | Opensource.com
What comes after Rock Star?
Earlier this year, we announced our launch of a points and badge system. Many of you are on the site daily, voting, rating, commenting, and earning points to show your activity. Over the next few weeks, we plan to wrap up the beta phase of this system. We will also start exploring a few enhancements that focus on point transparency and community recognition.
Many of you have asked for details on how your points are being earned (an audit trail) and for some type of points leaderboard. We think these are great ideas and are investigating how Drupal can provide this functionality. We want to be sure that we are making site enhancements that will positively impact our community members.
As of this posting, we have over 40 community members that have earned the Rock Star badge. Several of you are just a few points away. But what's next?
When the opensource.com team was brainstorming and making the first draft of the points and badge system, we wanted to make the Rock Star badge (technically a role in Drupal) into something you had to warm up your vocals for, yet keep it achievable. I think we're at the point we're we should consider what the next level is--and what we should call it.
Here's where you come in. Help us determine what life after a Rock Star is for opensource.com contributors. Shout out in the comments on the following questions:
- Should the next point level be 500 points or 1,000 points?
- What would you name this badge / role?
Remember, our current badges are:
- Newbie (0-9 points)
- Community Member (10-29 points)
- Open Enthusiast (30-99 points)
- Rock Star (100+ points)
14 Comments
New badge: "Open sorcerer" (500+ points).
"Super User" (5000+ points)
Really, this is a question?? Isn't it obvious??
The answer is 'root' :)
There are non-tech/non-Linux folks reading a Red Hat website with the url opensource.com?
Perhaps I have sharply mis-judged the audience.
Like it but not sure i want to be logging in as root on a cached password :-)
Or what about Guru?
The challenge with these labels is related to the "top 10" lists of people problem - they serve to demotivate more than they motivate. More argument on that in my blog post "Calling out superrockstars considered harmful", which I won't rehash in these comments.
For badges, what I've found helpful is when the badge actually signifies something of meaning, an actual metric. For example, I use an app on my Android phone that let's me track workouts, and it provides a badge of my calories-burned-this-week in the status bar. I find that badge and number highly motivating - it's real feedback with real meaning, and provides me incentive to move that number every time I can.
When I see labels such as "rock star", they not only have no meaning, they are rather obtuse. Is "rock star" better or worse than "newbie"? (Depends on the context!) I need to have a fairly good understanding of English-language idioms to make that call. For the other suggestions in these comments, how do you instantly know that those are a higher value in this system than "rock star"?
I suggest we head in a new direction. Try to find what we are actually tracking, which I believe is (roughly), "How much do you participate in this forum + what do others think about what you have to say." Then let's think of ways to show those levels.
Accumulated points come to mind. Having the point levels have different colors is a nice way to quickly see when you rise or drop.
Collections of fruit or stuffed animals that clearly build up? For example, one apple, three apples, five apples, a bushel of apples, two bushels, three bushels, a truckload of apples, two truckloads, etc. With such a system you can quickly see that someone who has a truckload of apples has gone through a lot of levels to get there, yet there isn't any socially inherent value of "number of apples you have obtained" compared to "you are a rock star, but she is a superrock star, you lose."
What are some other ways to show this accumulated social worth in a style that motivates everyone?
The badges do specify a metric, which makes them completely different from a subjective top 10 list, which obviously will leave out everyone but ten people.
Specific numbers of points are earned for specific activities related to participation on the site, and when specified points levels are reached, badges are awarded. So... I think what you're suggesting as an alternative is actually what we already do.
The current system requires a legend to keep track of the relative values of badges. That's a bit more than straight counting.
The current system uses labels that have contextual meaning in the wider society that imply an increasing social value. Those who are 'newbie' are less than 'rock star', and a 'guru' etc. implies even more - those who are enlightened versus those who are just famous for skill or stuck as stupid new people.
My emotional thinking is that these types of labels are somewhere on a spectrum that includes top-ten lists because of the way they single some people out with Special Meaning over many, many other people ... especially where the metrics behind the Special Meaning are not as meaningful as the label. (A Newbie may have five brilliant comments to a Rock Star's five hundred dull comments; anyone who knows the difference can see the Newbie being slighted.)
We focus a lot on the positive feelings people get from achieving badge levels, but we all suffer from the silencing and loss of participation when people feel left out. I don't see how we gain from using these type of labels for badges, nor how we gain from using more of them.
There are labels used here that make great sense from a collaborative viewpoint. It's helpful to know who has administrative or authoring privileges on the system. That's a badge that shows achievement but is courteous to others and their feelings of inclusion/exclusion. It also shows a clear way for outsiders to engage and join the insiders.
Some labels I am split about, such as the type of badge that indicates an exclusive club I may never be able to achieve, such as founding member. I think I'd leave that information to a biography page where it serves as a courtesy to others learning about and working with the community, and isn't a big gold medallion you wear around your neck all the time.
Back to my suggestion to consider bundled fruit units as inspiration, I notice that games use similar as a tracking and incentive strategy. In a game, I care less if I am a rogue, cutthroat, or master thief, and care more how much gold and experience points I've accumulated.
Personally, I've never ran away from a simple track-of-my-participation-metrics system, but I have left online, open source communities that focused on who got guru rank and what prizes they now have a chance at. It all felt anti-social and just made me uncomfortable, so I stopped hanging around.

Once you've been working a job for awhile, saving up your own money, you start to fantasize about what it's like to buy a couch, have your own remote controls, and the splendid beauty of a refrigerator just for you. Also, stuff like having to tiptoe in late at night just isn't fun anymore. I never had a tree or rose trellis to climb up into my room (not that I ever snuck out - I really never did), so you had to hoof it past Mom's Lair on the squeaky floorboards.

Lending Club [3] is doing it again, they're giving away a hundred bucks to one lucky Bargaineering.com reader! How can you beat that? (two hundred bucks? hint hint!)
For those that aren't familiar with Lending Club, they're a social lending network [4]. Investors can join and invest in 3-year loans, with Lending Club handling all the interest payments, at interest rates far superior to what banks offer. Borrowers can join and borrow at rates that are usually better than the banks, especially in this lending environment. It's really a win win situation for all involved.
So how do you win the hundred bucks? Very very easy, you must:
- Leave a comment on this post before noon, May 22nd, and,
- Become a free registered member of LendingClub [3]. If you signed up already, no need to do it again and you are still entered into the giveaway.
The second requirement, to register for free at LendingClub as a lender, is so that they can deposit the $100 directly into your account. You can withdraw that money immediately (or invest it, your choice).
On May 22nd, I'll select a winner and they'll take home a hundred bucks!
Congratulations to Eric! Eric is now the proud new owner of a hundred bucks deposited into his Lending Club account.

Freshman post player, Amena Brent, shares how her decision to come to Stetson has been one of the most rewarding decisions yet…
Choosing Stetson to play basketball as a Division I athlete and a full time
student has been the wisest and most influential decision I have made as a young
adult so far. Making the transition to living on my own and taking on
responsibilities for myself has been challenging. Being an only child I do miss
my parents dearly and my hometown of Chicago. I miss the city's skyline outside
my apartment window and the genuine city atmosphere I had in Chicago, but
the slow humble city of Deland is a change of pace that I am happy to partake in.

LeAnn Rimes is seeking help to address emotional issues.
"LeAnn has voluntarily entered a 30 day in-patient treatment facility to cope with anxiety and stress," her rep Marcel Pariseau tells PEOPLE in an exclusive statement.
"While there will be speculation regarding her treatment, she is simply there to learn and develop coping mechanisms. While privacy isn't expected, it's certainly appreciated."
Rimes – who checked in on Wednesday, the day after her 30th birthday – tells PEOPLE she hopes to emerge from treatment with better tools to deal with the life she'll be returning to.
"This is just a time for me to emotionally check out for a second and take care of myself and come back in 30 days as the best 30-year-old woman I can be," she says.
"All the things in my life will be there when I get out, but you know what? I'm hoping they're not going to affect me as much," she adds. "I'll have the tools to know how to deal with them."
Rimes's husband Eddie Cibrian, 39, tells PEOPLE he's giving his wife his full support and praises her courage.
"My wife is the most remarkable and courageous woman I know," says Cibrian. "I am so proud of her for having the strength to finally take some time for herself. I will be with her every step of the way."
Though Rimes has been the victim of body bullying in the past, her rep confirms she is not seeking treatment for an eating disorder or substance abuse.
The country star – who has been gearing up for the upcoming release of her latest studio album, Spitfire and a fall tour – will continue to perform in September during breaks from treatment. "The facility has granted her permission to keep her weekend tour obligations, as LeAnn doesn't want to disappoint her fans," adds her rep. "She will report back after each weekend."

Ph.D. in Civil and Environmental Engineering
- Area/Department Website: Civil and Environmental Engineering
- More Info: Catalog Listing
The Ph.D. in civil and environmental engineering is given for distinguished academic accomplishment in which a student displays original scholarship and achievement. To earn the Ph.D., you must exhibit broad mastery of the field by passing a comprehensive examination. You must also prove your ability to design and complete a program of original research by preparing a dissertation that adds to existing knowledge in your field.
Areas of specialization
Our department offers five areas of specialization for civil and environmental engineering students:
- Earthquake and structural engineering
- Geotechnical engineering
- Pavements and materials engineering
- Transportation engineering
- Environmental engineering
Faculty specialize in a number of research topics within those fields. Please visit our faculty listings for more information on research specialties.
Degree Requirements
There are four main requirements for the Ph.D. in civil and environmental engineering.
- Coursework requirements: You must complete core and elective coursework. Specific courses will be determined with the help of your advisory committee.
- Qualifying exams: Within the first year of your program, you must pass a qualifying exam covering core areas within your field of specialty.
- Comprehensive exams: Ideally, your comprehensive exam is taken as soon as possible after completing course requirements. This exam, which has both an oral and written component, is designed to test your mastery of a broad field of knowledge within civil and environmental engineering and isn't restricted to coursework that you've completed. The written exam is designed by faculty within your area of specialization, and the oral exam is given by your advisory committee. Passing this exam allows you to advance to Ph.D. candidacy.
- Dissertation: Your dissertation represents an original and independent research project that makes a contribution to scientific knowledge in your field. It should reflect both the ability to select an important problem for investigation and mastery of research techniques. Your dissertation must be successfully defended in front of your advisory committee.
Advisory Committee
Your advisory committee plays a key role in guiding you along the path toward your Ph.D.
Your advisory committee will help you develop your program of study, which is the specific list of courses and credits taken to meet degree requirements. Your committee will also supervise your dissertation research, review your research proposal and administer your comprehensive exams.
Your committee must consist of at least five faculty members, three of which must be from the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department, one from a related department and one from the University at large as a Graduate School Representative.
Ph.D. Program Progression
- Complete qualifying exams.
Deadline: Within first year.
- Establish advisory/examining committee.
Deadline: After qualifying exams and 12 credits.
- Prepare research proposal for examining committee.
Deadline: Within two-three years.
- Submit program of study form.
- Complete comprehensive exams.
Deadline: After completing 75 percent of coursework.
- Complete coursework and research.
- Apply for graduation.
Deadline: During final semester.
- Defend dissertation.
Deadline: During final semester.
Admission to the Ph.D. program requires a bachelor's degree in engineering or a related field such as biology, chemistry, math or physics. Other disciplines will be considered provided prerequisite courses in math, science and basic engineering are completed. Additionally, applicants should meet the following minimum standards:
- GPA of 3.25
- Combined verbal and quantitative GRE scores of 302
- For international students only: 550 TOEFL (Pbt) score or 79 TOEFL (IBT) score or 6.5 IELTS score
Applicants should also submit three letters of recommendation and a statement of purpose with their application.
How to Apply
Contact Dr. David Sanders, Graduate Director, at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Deadline for applications and fellowship consideration is January 15 for Fall Semester enrollment and September 1 for enrollment during Spring Semester.
Applicants must apply through the University's Graduate School. For more information on graduate school requirements and the admissions process, please visit their website.
Graduate recruitment weekend
For spring applicants wishing to enroll during fall semesters, the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department holds a recruitment weekend for invited domestic applicants, typically in late March or early April. Students participating in the weekend will have an opportunity to:
- Meet one-on-one with program faculty and researchers
- Meet our students and attend a poster session on current research
- Tour the laboratories and campus
- Learn about program curricula and graduate assistantships
All costs, including travel and lodging, will be paid by the Department.
The recruitment weekend is an excellent chance to meet your graduate advisors and see what the graduate experience at Nevada is like. We can't wait to meet you there.
Financial support
Almost all of our Ph.D. students receive some form of funding. Funding packages available to graduate students include teaching or research assistantships. Awards are made on the basis of scholarship and promise for outstanding achievement. The applicant's grade point average, GRE scores, statement of purpose, and letters of recommendation are the primary means used to allocate financial aid for graduate students.
Housing Options
The University offers on-campus housing for graduate students. Visit the graduate housing website to learn more about living at the University of Nevada, Reno.

Drunken driving appears to be on the wane in West Virginia, to judge by fatality statistics. In 2009, 115 traffic deaths in the state were blamed on drunken driving. By last year the toll had decreased to 90.
That is still 90 too many lives lost to inebriated drivers.
Times of celebration, such as the Christmas-New Year's season, tend to involve increases in what some authorities refer to as "impaired driving." That is a realistic view of those who drink alcoholic beverages or use certain drugs before sliding behind the wheel. It also takes into account the fact that one need not be legally intoxicated to be impaired as a driver.
Area law enforcement agencies once again this year will be stepping up patrols and sobriety checkpoints to keep travelers safe from holiday revelers who simply don't care whether their drinking or drug use puts others in danger.
There are any number of ways to enjoy alcoholic beverages while not driving under the influence. Designated drivers, taxis most bar owners are happy to call for patrons, limiting one's consumption or choosing a party location where guests can stay overnight rather than drive home drunk are some options.
If none of those alternatives is available, the responsible decision is to simply refrain from consuming alcohol.
But again, some people are so immature and/or selfish that they don't allow their consciences to prevent them from having what they define as "a good time."
They should be aware that law enforcement agencies are getting better at detecting and arresting them. They also should remember additional officers will be on local streets and highways during the holiday season.
If all of that makes no impression on those who habitually drive while intoxicated, perhaps an overnight stay in a jail cell will help.

BATAVIA – Batavia Downs Casino showed a profit for 2012 for the eighth consecutive year, with a net income of $45.1 million.
The operation, owned by Western Regional Off-Track Betting Corp., has been on the plus side every year since video lottery terminals were installed in 2005.
The 2012 year increase was 13 percent over the previous year's $40 million.
Michael D. Kane, president and CEO, said the profits from the 640 slot-like machines goes to the State Lottery and the 15 counties and cities of Buffalo and Rochester who he noted are "owners" of the quasi-public corporation.
The historic harness racing track concluded its 66th season a month ago with record-high purses the slots pay out for horsemen.

Great quality slippers
By Joe in Buford GA
from Buford GA
I bought these for my wife who has cancer. The chemo has caused her to have neuropathy in her feet. A lot of shoes and slippers I have purchased for her just weren't comfortable. These slippers put a smile on her face. They are comfortable (that's what she tells me) and they're durable (I checked because I'm a man and it's what I do). Great buy.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comfortable slippers for sore feet
By JL
from North Hills, NY
I wear custom orthotics in my shoes so I no longer have heel pain but I bought these slippers to support my feet in general. I asked Customer Service if these would help with pain in the balls of the feet and they said they should. So far the slippers seem to give me adequate relief especially when standing in the kitchen on a hard ceramic tile floor. My only complaint is that they are not very stylish looking. I bought the tan ones which blend into my beige carpeting but they look too much like a ski sweater. The ladies slippers should look more feminine.

Comfy but a bit too wide
By ChrisSD
from San Diego
I ordered these as I was suffering from plantar fasciitis pain in my left heel. They have definitely helped with the pain but they are a bit too wide for my regular sized foot. Okay for lounging at home but if you need to walk anywhere, wear them with socks as they rub the toes a bit. I am also a little bothered by the fact that the pattern isn't the same on both shoes.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Lady's Plantar Fasciitis slippers

These are my second pair of slippers; they are fantasitc to wear while doing housework and give support and comfort.
By Hurting Feet
from Marblehead, MA
I purchased the slippers because my doctor told me I could no longer walk around the house barefoot due to Plantar Fasciitis. I didn't want to walk around with shoes so I started looking into slippers. These were a lot more money than I wanted to pay but they are working. I bought the size 7 (same as my shoe size), they are a little big but I think the 6 would be too small so I'm sticking with the 7s.

from monroe township,NJ
The pattern does not match both shoes. Uncomfortable, stiff would not recommend.

By Heidi
from St. Paul, Mn. USA
I bought a pair for myself and one of my three daughter tried them on and loved the comfort. I then ordered a pair for all three of my daughters and can't wait to give them theirs!!!
Exactly as Described
By Sarah
from Richmond, CA
I ordered the oatmeal pair and they are exactly as described. I use them strictly for around the house in order to help alleviate my planter faciitis. I haven't worn them long enough to determine if they are permanently helping, but I like them enough that I would keep them regardless. They are stylish for house shoes and still pretty comfortable (although the sole is stiff for support, so they are NOT a soft shoe, if that is what you are looking for).
By Andy
from San Jose, CA
I have been looking for slippers with support for 3 years and was delighted to find these. The support is exactly as described. Thank you!

Family History: Challenges of immigration
Many families are descendants of immigrants or refugees. It is a part of our unique histories.
As our ancestors – or more recently, ourselves, parents or grandparents – traveled thousands of miles to find safety in another country for various reasons, the process of adapting to life in a new place is often challenging.
My great-grandparents came from Belarus to Newark, New Jersey, in 1905. While they barely ever learned English themselves, they made sure that their children learned English and that they did well in school. Their children and grandchildren went on to college and became doctors, engineers or entered other professions. Perhaps it was easier for them as the Yiddish-speaking immigrant community in Newark of that time was so large. There was always someone – who had arrived much earlier and learned the system - to help out with the language or whatever problem needed to be solved.
It is different when an immigrant is part of a new, smaller group of people who have only recently arrived. The community support system is not yet that well-established and the immigrants or refugees rely on the wider community to help them.
A recent study by sociologists at the University of Dayton (Ohio) indicates that adjusting to linguistic and cultural differences is a daunting task. They presented the new research at the 107th meeting of the American Sociological Association (ASA).

on December 29, 2012 - 4:38 PM
Two heavily armed gunmen wearing paintball masks robbed a Town of Tonawanda bank just before noon Saturday.
The two men robbed the Evans Bank branch at 2800 Niagara Falls Blvd., near Creekside Drive, at about 11:55 a.m. Saturday, police said.
After one displayed what appeared to be an automatic handgun and the other an assault rifle, the two were handed an un- determined amount of cash. They stuffed the money in a backpack and ran out of the bank.
The men were described as white men with darker complexions, medium builds and from 5 feet, 10 inches to 6 feet tall.
Both were wearing dark clothing, gloves and paintball masks, police said.
Witnesses reported that both gunmen had foreign accents and may have been of Middle Eastern descent, police added.
During the robbery, a customer driving a tan Pontiac Aztec pulled into the drive-thru and observed what was happening through the teller window.
Investigators tracked down and interviewed that witness later in the day, a detective said Saturday night.
Anyone with information about the case is asked to contact the Town of Tonawanda Police Department through its confidential tip line at 879-6606 or by emailing Detective Timothy Connolly at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Butler, Richards, and Germany all kicked off the team today. Butler is the only one that stings. I'm glad Lloyd kicked them off the team though. Maybe they can transfer to Florida State, and get a million chances.
From what I understand it was just a fight at a house....I mean, that should be disciplined for sure but kicking them off the team seems a little steep. There must be more to the story.
