We have a litter due in a few weeks. We have used Esbilac in the past as a milk supplement when the litter was large (12). Have also been told that powdered goat's milk can be used and is much cheaper than Esbilac.
Have any of you used powdered goat's milk or some other product besides Esbilac as a milk supplement ?

Putt as far as us having no input. we do in the way of emailing the right people
The last email I got from senator hoelprin was that this bill is on hold until like April 21 i think it was.
Simply. I think this is just to much change to fast.
I would agree with 3 seasons instead of 6.
Also If a Hunter commits to Bow Hunt only let them Hunt anytime In April.
April Hunting Needs to be controlled. Make May wide open.

Mettenberger has a cannon and can find space in the pocket. I'd be completely fine with him in the later rounds. The others you mention also trump McCarron.

|Being curious about everything helps!
I agree with absolutely everything you say, Catherine, and it's all sound advice. Can I add one very simple suggestion from my own experience? Don't keep going back and reading what you've written when you are working on your first draft. Yes, there will be gaps and bits of dreadful writing, but if you go back you won't go forward. Press on to the end of the first draft, THEN go back and edit. The one exception I make is to read the last two or three paragraphs I wrote on the previous day, so I know where to pick up the train of thought. I think this constant pushing ahead is a difficult but essential lesson for every writer to learn. Rant over!
You're absolutely right, Ann! The secret to finishing a novel (and a play too in my experience) is to forge on to the bitter end even though you know you wouldn't want anyone to look at this draft. Somebody once told me that she always tries to stop each day at a place where she really doesn't want to, because it's easier to pick it up the next day -I've tried that too, and it works, but it's very hard to do!
I've heard that too, and also the suggestion that one should stop in the middle of a sentence! This is something I really can't do, because I know I'd come back the next day, having forgotten what the rest of the sentence was meant to be. Fury and frustration! I find reading those few paragraphs does the trick, without the danger of losing something precious.
Completely agree, Catherine! - Especially with the bit about admiring children's writers! - And about behaving like a professional and demanding to be paid for your work.
I've always thought children were so discerning that writing successfully for them must be one of the most challenging and difficult (as well as rewarding!) forms of writing. I used to write for schools radio - and a bit of television - in the old days, and it was never easy, although those who don't do it always seem to think it is.
As someone who has yet to be published (I have self-published the first three in a series of children's stories called 'The Colonel's Collection), I was so gratified to read the advice about not being afraid of failure.If the key to becoming a good writer is to keep at it, then surely you are bound to meet failures along the way. The secret is not to let it stop you carrying on!Thanks for the sound advice.
I agree. Wasn't it Samuel Beckett who said 'try again, fail again, fail better!' I think any career in writing is a switchback for most people.
Hi Catherine,
I've been teaching creative writing for a few years now and in my experience (both as a writer and tutor) the students who succeed are the ones who don't give up. Very useful advice, such as yours here, makes it easier to keep going! Thanks for posting it :)
"A line will take us hours maybe;Yet if it doesn't seem a moment's thought,our stitching and unstinting has been naught." Yeats
Thank-you Marianne - you're so right. There's always an element of luck, but the more people persevere, the luckier they seem to be!
Luck always helps:)
I wholeheartedly agree with #5!

Dear President Obama: In advance of your July 6-8 summit in Moscow with President Dmitry Medvedev, we'd like to draw your attention to the pressing issue of impunity in violent crimes against journalists in Russia. We ask you to place this issue on the agenda for your talks. Seventeen journalists have been murdered for their work or have died under suspicious circumstances since 2000. In only one case have the killers been convicted. In every case, the masterminds remain unpunished.
Dangerous Assignments | Bangladesh, Colombia, Georgia, Iraq, Philippines, Russia
Alerts | Colombia, Russia, Sierra Leone
New York, January 4, 2001 --- Of the 24 journalists killed for their work in 2000, according to CPJ research, at least 16 were murdered, most of those in countries where assassins have learned they can kill journalists with impunity.
This figure is down from 1999, when CPJ found that 34 journalists were killed for their work, 10 of them in war-torn Sierra Leone.
In announcing the organization's annual accounting of journalists who lost their lives because of their work, CPJ executive director Ann Cooper noted that while most of the deaths occurred in countries experiencing war or civil strife, "The majority did not die in crossfire. They were very deliberately targeted for elimination because of their reporting." Others whose deaths were documented by CPJ appear to have been singled out while covering demonstrations, or were caught in military actions or ambushes while on assignment.
"We have to protect the state from the media," said Mikhail Lesin, the head of Russia's new Ministry for the Press, Radio and Television Broadcasting, and Media Affairs, shortly after taking office in July. Coming in advance of the country's legislative and presidential elections, it was a stunning statement of Kremlin intent.
Lesin's demonization of the press was all the more striking given the crucial role that Russian media played in Boris Yeltsin's 1996 reelection campaign. Russia's powerful media conglomerates united behind the unpopular Yeltsin, boosting him back into office over a bevy of rival candidates. Three years later, those same conglomerates were bitterly divided, some backing the Kremlin and others allied with one of its chief rivals. With rare exceptions, journalists working for the battling media barons served the interests of their bosses.
New York, February 29, 2000---CPJ is investigating reports that a Russian photographer kidnapped by Chechen rebels has been murdered. ITAR-TASS news agency photographer Vladimir Yatsina, 51, had been missing since July 19, 1999, following his arrival in the Ingushetian border town of Nazran. According to reports, he was then kidnapped and taken to Chechnya.
At a Federal Security Service briefing in Moscow yesterday, Kazakh businessman Alisher Orazaliyev, who was recently released from captivity in Chechnya and claims to have been held by the same people who kidnapped Yatsina, says he witnessed the photographer's death on February 20.
Do you believe the free flow of information must be protected? Sign the #RightToReport petition and demand that President Obama immediately:
1. Issue a presidential policy directive prohibiting the hacking and surveillance of journalists and media organizations.
2. Limit aggressive prosecutions that ensnare journalists and intimidate whistleblowers.
3. Prevent the harassment of journalists at the U.S. border.
Or click here to see the full petition, and join leading journalists like Christiane Amanpour, The Guardian's Alan Rusbridger, Editor of the AP Kathleen Carroll, and Arianna Huffington in signing on.

Ammendment 6 Issue # 6

RE:Ammendment 6 Issue # 6
I would like to see it opened on a state by state basis to hook and line fishing only. There are about 40 miles of striper infested waters to the south of Chatham and east of Nantucket. It goes all the way out to 200 feet of water. To limit the fishery to the inshore 3 mile limit is unnecessary in Massachusetts. It is now so crowded out there (3 mile) that the quality of the fishing experience is getting tainted. Any of you that have seen the Monomoy flats on a crowded day can understand.
I have seen the rapid growth of congestion on the waters in the last 5 years. The stock market has given all the opportunity to buy a boat. Many are new fishermen, and have no idea about running over the fish with the boat or trolling the lines back into the rip taking up a section of a spot or worse, running to you when they see you with a bent rod.
The effort is there already, I would like to see it spread out over a larger area. If we need a sanctuary or reserve, where fishing is not allowed, then we can do that. Stellwagon and outside of 12 miles still provide an unfathomable area of striper grounds. I know that the charter boats of Nantucket, Marthas Vineyard and the whole south side of the Cape have fished these waters for years, including myself. Last year was the first year that it was enforced by the USCG. To start enforcement now will push those boats back in to the inshore areas further crowding the areas.
I would like to see a 12 mile limit put into effect, for a hook and line fishery only, no seines, gill nets or dragging allowed for the commercial guys. I have seen no proof that this area is where all the bigger fish are, so I don't buy the argument that it needs protection. I do know that this is where the cooler water is and when the inshore waters are 65-72 the fish move out.
This is an allocation issue unintentionally disguised as a protective measure. If we are taking too many big fish, lets change the size limits. Let us START to address hooking mortality. Let us act on commercial discards, which are huge, mostly from the areas that are now being shut down to the recreational fisherman and charter operator. If more guys were out there to see what the cod gillnetters and draggers throw away it might help. But lets not close the productive areas to the southeast of Cape Cod to recreational fishing because we assume that the reason we aren't seeing big ones on the beaches is because of the offshore fishermen.

Charleston's local art scene was buzzing with anticipation last week for Society 1858's Flirting with Art event, and the risqué event did not disappoint. The Gibbes Museum of Art was packed with a young, hip crowd of art aficionados, fashionistas, and the who's-who of Charleston, and the entire building seemed to pulse with energy.
Partygoers noshed on bites of yellowtail with chili, garlic and cilantro or rustic bread topped with tomato confit, basil pesto, and parmesan from the Woodlands Inn while sipping red and white wine and rubbing elbows before being ushered into the main gallery space, where a long runway stretched across the room. Everyone happily vied for position around the runway while Gibbes Executive Director and Chief Curator Angela Mack welcomed the masses and introduced Charleston magazine style editor Ayoka Lucas, the emcee for the night's runway show.
The Flirting with Art show featured some of Charleston's most esteemed local artists, including Charles Ailstock, Sally King Benedict, Lese Corrigan, Nathan Durfee, Linda Fantuzzo, Kat Hastie, Tim Hussey, Leslie Pratt-Thomas, Lynne Riding, Kristi Ryba, Andrew Smock, and Mary Walker. Each artist was paired with a model who would become their "living canvas" as the artists interpreted their Gibbes' work of choice directly on the models' skin. Modesty was preserved in the form of strapless bras and nude underwear, but the resulting works of art were striking and edgy nonetheless. Catcalls erupted as each model took to the runway, and a finale walk of artists and models drew thunderous applause.
While the models lingered on the runway to allow guests to view the work in detail, they soon scurried off to join the party... in real clothes. "I haven't peed or been able to put my arms down for three hours!" one model laughed as she made a dash for the ladies' room. The night's energy was infectious, and models, artists and partygoers were caught up in a fabulous after-show party that lasted well into the night.
Society 1858 is the Gibbes Museum of Art's group of dynamic young professionals, whose mission is to promote and support the museum with social and educational programs for up-and-coming art patrons.

Re-evaluating two stalwart corporations in my software world. It seems ideology matters in the long haul (knew that). VA Research/Linux/Software is still plugging along (after evaporating my $4K friends-and-families investment) and I've finally realized that they are simply Slashdot++. When they bought Andover they decided their future as a media/content provider for the open-source future. Sourceforge still works, things eventually get fixed, I can't complain.
The other corporation that has impressed me with their stick-to-it-tiveness is Apple. I bought my first Apple (a IIe with Microsoft Basic) in 1980. Two decades later they have made computing fun for me again. BSD under the hood. iPod++ on top. And X11 thrown in, packaged to look the same as Cocoa?
Ok, I'm also impressed with the stick-to-it-tiveness of Advogato. Maybe someday raph will get back to me on that interview for the Vector Graphics Foundry (do you still read every diary entry? probably not...).

Today, while digging in my sandnet, I came across a trojan that I've never seen before and that appeared to be new to me. The trojan gained my attention because its HTTP POSTing to www.google.com which is a bit weird (but more on this later). So, I decided to have a closer look at the trojan and found 20 binaries in my sandnet that showed up a similar behaviour:
2013-07-23 a00fd847d7152d2439251d5e5bf20dca

2013-08-01 a29fd30396c564fc40a86b54ec36d602
As shown above, I've seen the first malware binary showing this behaviour on 2013-07-21. The trojan seems to be, at least from my perspective, somewhat new. What also made me curious of about this trojan is the fact that only 3 out of these 20 binaries are known to Virustotal. However, they seem to have quite a good AV coverage:
AV coverage: 35 / 46
MD5 hash: a00fd847d7152d2439251d5e5bf20dca
AV coverage: 34 / 46
MD5 hash: a1ae35eadf7599d2f661a9ca7f0f2150
AV coverage: 35 / 46
Having a look at the AV-results, this trojan is being detected as Rodecap by most AV-vendors. Symantec discovered this new threat on July 23 2013, two days after my sandnet came across the first malware binary showing with this behaviour:
*** The Trojan ****
Once a computer has been infected, Rodecap installs itself into the following directories:
C:\Document and Settings\USERNAME\Local Settings\Application Data\
The trojan copies itself to these directories using one of the following filenames:
In addition, Rodecap might also write the following files:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\dllhost.exe
To ensure that Rodecap gets loaded on the system start, it creates a registry key in HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\ using one of the following names:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\Microsoft Connection Manager
The AV-vendor ESET has documented additional filenames and registry keys used by Rodecap.
*** Rodecap C&C Traffic ***
The botnet C&C communication used by Rodecap is quite fancy. As mentioned before in this blog post, Rodecap initially communicates with a C&C server using www.google.com. But it also does some other interesting C&C communication which is described below.
To obtain the address of the main C&C server, Rodecap gets the MX record of lyrics-db.org. This DNS response contains two MX records which are pointing to a different domain name:
DNS response:
13 mx1.games-olympic.org.
17 mx2.games-olympic.org.
Rodecap will now obtain the IP address of the main C&C server by getting the A record of one of the referenced MX records:
DNS response: 184.108.40.206
This will tell Rodecap to use the IP address 188.8.131.52 as C&C server. Rodecap even goes one step further, and tries to evade sandboxes by using www.google.com in the HTTP Host header while talking to the C&C (of course this won't work in a corporate environment where a web proxy server is in place):
Accept: */*
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Host: www.google.com
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0
Content-Length: 72
Connection: Keep-Alive
Cache-Control: no-cache
Server: nginx
Date: Wed, 31 Jul 2013 X
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Connection: keep-alive
Keep-Alive: timeout=20
*encrypted data*
If you take a look at this HTTP Header this request should go to www.google.com, but in fact the bot sends the request to 126.96.36.199 which has been previously obtained by Rodecap using the MX DNS query. The IP address belongs to a Russian web hosting company called Digital Networks CJSC (DINET / msm.ru):
netname: RU-DINET-20081230
org: ORG-DNJ1-RIPE
descr: Digital Networks CJSC

status: ALLOCATED PA
mnt-by: RIPE-NCC-HM-MNT
mnt-lower: DN-MNT
mnt-routes: DN-MNT
mnt-domains: DN-MNT
source: RIPE # Filtered
Of course, Google is not hosted in Russia…
Once the bot contacted the main C&C server, it will tell the bot to drop additional malware components (PE32 executables):

*** Rodecap spam module ***
What Rodecap drops here seems to be at least one module that is used for spamming. This spam module has an interesting way of spamming internet users mailboxes. To do so, Rodecap will call a C&C server at newsleter.org to get a task from the botnet herder using HTTP GET:
User-Agent: –
Host: t.newsleter.org
Cache-Control: no-cache
Server: nginx
Date: Wed, 31 Jul 2013 X
Content-Type: text/plain
Content-Length: 309
Connection: keep-alive
Keep-Alive: timeout=5
Last-Modified: Mon, 22 Jul 2013 X
ETag: "X"
Accept-Ranges: bytes
*encrypted data*
I've seen the spam module using different subdomains of newsleter.org, and they are hosted on different IP addresses:
bt.newsleter.org (126.96.36.199 – AS23033 Wowrack US)
seek.newsleter.org (184.108.40.206 – AS23033 Wowrack US)
fw.newsleter.org (220.127.116.11 – AS56534 Prix RU)
What Rodecap will try to get from these C&Cs is a spam template and a list of hijacked websites (more on that below).
*** CMS php backdoor component ***
Unlike other spam botnets that are either using stolen SMTP credentials for spamming, spamming the victims mailserver directly or abusing open SMTP relays, Rodecap seems to use a huge list of websites that have been compromised and running some kind of PHP script (backdoor). Within a few hours I was able to retrieve more than 3'500 unique websites that seems to run an outdated content management system (CMS, such as Joomla!) and which have already been compromised and hosting a malicious PHP file. A list of compromised websites I've came across so far and that are associated with Rodecap can be found here:
Unfortunately I wasn't able to get a copy of such a PHP file yet, but based on the botnet traffic towards these compromised websites it seems that Rodecap is spamming through these PHP files:
The HTTP POST request look like this:
Accept: */*
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0
Host: www.hrmet.nl
Content-Length: 883
Connection: Keep-Alive
Cache-Control: no-cache
encrypted data
Date: Wed, 31 Jul 2013 X
Server: Apache
X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.14
Content-Length: 39
Keep-Alive: timeout=1, max=100
Connection: Keep-Alive
Content-Type: text/html
If the PHP backdoor response with "OK" and the task ID, the spam email was obviously sent successfully. I've also seen various compromised websites returning the OS version and the task id instead of just "OK". For example:
WINNT20+taskid+1 (for webservers running Windows, mostly IIS)
If the PHP backdoor isn't able to send the spam mail (eg. because the spam mail has been rejected by the remote mail server), the PHP backdoor will send this information back to the bot along with the error message from the remove mail server.
Some examples:
Linux20+taskid+3+(email@example.com)+421 RP-001 (BAY0-MC2-F47) Unfortunately, some messages from 18.104.22.168 weren't sent. Please try again. We have limits for how many messages can be sent per hour and per day. You can also refer to http://mail.live.com/mail/troubleshooting.aspx#errors.|
Linux20+taskid+2+(email@example.com)+421 4.7.0 [GL01] Message from (22.214.171.124) temporarily deferred – 4.16.50. Please refer to http://postmaster.yahoo.com/errors/postmaster-21.html|
According to the error messages, Rodecap currently targets big free email providers such as Windows Live, Yahoo and AOL.
I ran a Rodecap binary in a sandbox for a few minutes and checked the responses from the compromised websites. Based on the responses it appears that most of the spam sent by Rodecap were accepted by the remote mail servers.
*** Conclusion ***
This new threat seems to be just another spam bot in the wild. However, it is using some interesting methods for C&C communication and for sending out spam that I've never seen before. In fact the idea is quite good: There are ten thousands of websites out there running vulnerable (unpatched) CMSes that can easily be exploited to install malicious software on the victims webspace. The Rodecap gang seizes this opportunity to install a PHP backdoor that then allows them to send emails through the compromised webservers. By doing this, the criminals avoid common blacklists, especially blacklists that are listing dynamic IP space used by end users (DSL / cable subscribers) such as Spamhaus PBL or SORBS DUL.
To defend your network against this new threat, you should:
- Block HTTP User-Agent "Mozilla/5.0" and "-" on your Web Proxy
- Ensure that your CMS is up to date running the latest version
In addition, you might also want to block the C&C communication associated with Rodecap going to the following destinations:
A reader of abuse.ch contacted me and suggested to block 184.108.40.206/18
entirely which belongs to Digital Network JSC (DI-NET Russia). According to him this blockage didn't cause any false positive in the last 2 years.

VikingAviation is continue to release cockpit films from the lesser known airlines.
This time they have released a new Cockpit Action DVD with Iran Air. On board on a Airbus A300-600, we follow the crew on a flight between Tehran, Imam Khomeini Airport and Gothenburg Airport, and back and on board a Airbus A320 Theran, Iman Khomeini Airport and Shiraz.
As usual the picture quality is very good and also the sound.
On the A300-600 flight there are very experienced captains with together more than 40 000 flying hours! Captain Bazzazi also tell us how it was to take delivery of two brand new A300-600 from Airbus in Toulouse.
During the flight to Gothenburg, which Capt. Bazzazi always tries to pronounce in Swedish(!), the crew explains how the fuelsystem works on board. Of course we follow the crew during preparation, going through the check-lists, and we see the crew going through take-off briefing and, later on, approach briefing, followed by a approach to a rainy Gothenburg. The cabin work is also shown, and a notice they serve Iranian caviar, and that is not cheap!
On the A320 between Theran and Shiraz we follow the usual cockpit work, and the work in the cabin with the stewardesses in very nice uniforms.
Total time of this DVD is 3 hours. And it is also available as Blu-Ray for the same price, 24.99 EUR!
The production is of the usual high standard filmed with several HD cameras, and can be ordered from VikingAviation website.

Swiss Blue-Ray from JustPlanes
Product reviews 14.02.12 / 15:43
This programme really makes me wanna fly Swiss A340! Here we are invited by the friendly crew of Swiss on their A340 on a flight between Zurich and San Fransisco and back.
And the whole thing is covered with no less than 6 HD cameras.
The programme starts with pre-flight briefing, not as in depth as in the Air Canada 777 North-Pole flight Blue-Ray, but the crew explains about ETOPS, weather and other aspects, and then it´s time for the walk-around. Captain Covolan guides us around the 340, and there is no doubt he is proud to be captain of this aircraft.
After the exterior check into the cockpit! And here is where the fun begins!
The crew explains, in very nice and in-depth, the cockpit preparations, going through the charts on the EFB (Electronic Flight Bag), and all the checklists. This is done in a extremely good way, and in a relaxed tone.
The sound on the Blue-Ray is perfect, only some times the ATC chatter is a bit high, making it difficult to hear what the crew explains, but that is just in total a few minutes, and considering this Blue-Ray is around 4 hours long, it´s not a big deal.
After all the preparation it´s time for take-off from Zurich. The picture quality is superb, just be shure to watch this on a HD TV to get the most out of the Blue-Ray!
During the flight to San Fransisco, Captain Covolan and his first officer, explains, and shows, the different flight instruments in the cockpit. Of course we also get spectacular views from the scenery we pass along the route.
The landing in SFO is a challenge since the crew get informed, quite late, that the ILS is out of function, but they perform a visual landing instead. They also explain the special procedure that SFO, and some few other airports in USA with parallell runways have, called PRM Approach.
And after shut-down we are invited to join some of the crew on bikes(!) around San Fransisco, where we view ,among other things, Golden Gate bridge. I am impressed with the guy filming while cycling.
During the returnflight to Zurich more explantions of the cockpitsystems are given, and we also take a glimpse of the cabin service, with the meals being served, and they look mouth watering!
So in conclusion this Blue-Ray is flawless, in great quality both regarding picture quality and sound. The programme is just over 4 hours, but it is so good, times fly(pun!) and it never feels too long.
The Blue-Ray costs only $30. You order it from JustPlanes website. Link is below.
I warmly recommend this Blue-Ray, and looking forward to the next one, already in production!

Higher Education Bill Includes New Money, Priorities for Colleges and Universities
Contact: Sandy Connolly, Director of Communications, Office of Higher Education 651 259-3902
Minnesota's public colleges and universities and many college students seeking financial aid can expect state funding increases as a result of the first major funding bill passed by the Legislature and signed by Governor Tim Pawlenty May 26.
The 2006-2007 Omnibus Higher Education Appropriations Act contains $2.8 billion in funding for the University of Minnesota, the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities, student assistance programs and other initiatives. The bill provides funding to plan for a new university presence in Rochester, the creation of centers of excellence at Minnesota State Colleges and Universities and major research initiatives at the University of Minnesota, all of which were identified as priorities by the Governor prior to the session.
The needs of Minnesota are changing and this bill begins to help the higher education sector respond strategically, said Susan Heegaard, director of the Office of Higher Education. Many people came together to make this an innovative compromise bill at a time when new funding is scarce.
Bill highlights:
University of Minnesota
- The University of Minnesota will receive a 9.9 percent increase, or $106 million in new funding, over the 2004-2005 biennium. The University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, and campuses in Crookston, Duluth and Morris will receive state appropriations of $1.251 billion from all state sources for the two-year period beginning July 1, 2005. A series of research initiatives, competitive compensation for faculty and efforts to serve underrepresented students are among the university's top priorities.
- The process for selecting members of the University of Minnesota's Board of Regents was modified. The Regent Candidate Advisory Council will recommend candidates to the Governor. The Governor will nominate one candidate for each vacancy. A twenty-member joint legislative committee, with an equal number of members from the majority and minority party, will consider the nominations and make recommendations to the Legislature. The Legislature will elect the regents. The bill requires that consideration be given to geography, diversity, and experience when selecting regents.
Minnesota State Colleges and Universities
- The Minnesota State Colleges and Universities system will receive an 8.5 percent funding increase, or $108 million more over the 2004-2005 biennium. The system, which includes seven state universities and 25 community and technical colleges, will receive $1.203 billion in state appropriations for the two-year period beginning July 1, 2005. The system's funding priorities include nursing and teacher education, expanding online educational offerings, outreach to underserved populations and farm and small business management education.
- The bill includes increased funding to pay competitive compensation to faculty and staff at Minnesota State Colleges and Universities.
- Centers of excellence will be developed at Minnesota State Colleges and Universities. The system's appropriation includes $10 million in new funding to enable the system's Board of Trustees to select up to eight programs, each tied to a university campus program, that will be expanded and enhanced to attract students, faculty and employer involvement from around the country.
- The Minnesota State Colleges and Universities received approval to begin offering specific applied doctoral degrees in business education, psychology, physical therapy, audiology and nursing.
Financial Aid Changes/Office of Higher Education
- Many college students will appreciate changes to the state's financial aid grant program.
- Most of the 78,000 students projected to receive state grants next year will see an increase in their awards, beyond tuition increase adjustments. The increase is due to an upward adjustment in the recognized cost of Living and Miscellaneous Expenses, a figure used in calculating student eligibility for state grants.
- The deadline for students applying for state grants was extended from 14 days to 30 days after the start of each term.
- Students enrolled in four-year private college programs could see an additional increase in their state grants. The tuition cap applied when calculating financial aid eligibility for students in four-year programs will increase 5 percent over two years to $9,438. Students at public four-year institutions will not be affected.
- Students attending two-year programs at some private schools could see their state grant awards decrease. The tuition cap applied when calculating financial aid eligibility for students in two-year programs will decrease 6.9 percent over two years to $6,436. Students at public two-year institutions, where all tuition rates are below the cap, will not be affected by the reduction.
- Students who must leave college because they are called up for active military service will be granted an additional semester of financial aid eligibility and are given refunds for courses they could not complete as a result of their deployment. Students who withdraw from college due to a military service-related medical condition now have the option to receive a refund or complete their coursework at a later date.
- The maximum annual award for Postsecondary Child Care Grants was increased from $2,200 to $2,300.
Office of Higher Education
- The Office of Higher Education will change its name to the Minnesota Office of Higher Education, effective July 1, 2005. The change reflects its new role as a state agency responsible for financial aid, higher education policy, data collection, analysis and reporting. The Higher Education Services Council, which previously served as the governing board for the Office of Higher Education, was eliminated from statute.
- The agency will develop a statewide higher education accountability system to provide information to students, taxpayers and policymakers on the effectiveness of the higher education sector in meeting state goals.
- The agency will complete a study of the for-profit postsecondary education schools. The agency will also review and report to the legislature on licensure policies for all private postsecondary institutions.
- The Legislature granted the Office of Higher Education permission to reinvest projected surplus dollars back into the State Grant program in the second year of the biennium. If a surplus is projected, the agency will incrementally increase the Living and Miscellaneous Expense figure used in the calculation of state grants, thus increasing state grant awards for all eligible students.
- The Office of Higher Education will serve as the fiscal agent for funding appropriated to plan a new higher education presence in Rochester. An 11-member planning committee will be appointed by the Governor and charged with bringing a blueprint to the Legislature. New programs will be developed to meet the growing need for bachelor's degrees and graduate-level programs in that rapidly growing community. Funding for this initiative is $3.2 million.
- Funding for Intervention for College Attendance Program grants was increased to reach more students with early intervention programs and to support administration of the program.
- Fees were increased for private for-profit institutions seeking licensure.
- The Office of Higher Education will conduct a study of higher education funding that will include review of current state policy that bases funding adjustments on enrollment. The agency will explore funding methods used in other states and programs and make recommendations to the Governor and the Legislature in 2006.

TUPELO – Salvation Army Lodge resident Eunice Jasica finally thought she found a job at KFC earlier this month, after three months of searching.
However, when she went to company headquarters to pick up her uniform, she claims she was dismissed when her address was recognized as the lodge.
"I felt very confident about my interview," Jasica said. "The store manager told me to come back on [March 11] and fill out paperwork."
Jasica said she complied, bringing with her a form for her employer from the Salvation Army detailing the specifics of her employment, including hire date, start date, and expected duties. The manager completed the form, citing Jasica's official hiring on March 12, and her start date on March 18.
"She told me to come in for training after I picked up my uniform from headquarters," Jasica said. "But when I went to the office, [franchise owner Chelsey Ruff] told me I wasn't hired."
Jasica said she was bewildered, and asked for a letter as proof of her dismissal to take to the Salvation Army. The letter, signed by Ruff, claimed Jasica was not hired because of her lack of permanent address and reliable transportation.
"How can I make a down payment on a car or an apartment without a job?" Jasica said. "I feel like stigma is a part of it. The restaurant is in walking distance."
Ruff, CEO of Ruff Business Systems, said Jasica was never hired in the first place, because all hires must come through Ruff Business Systems' main office for final approval and to show proper forms of identification and to complete the I-9 citizenship form.
"That's a legality for us, and we have to complete those steps," he said. "I think the mix-up probably came when she thought she was hired in the store."
Ruff has hired Salvation Army lodge residents before on multiple occasions, and said he has even used money out of his own pocket to equip them with non-slip shoes and other items.
"We judge a person on their merits, not where they're from. Our policy hasn't changed towards homeless applicants," he said. "I was under the impression she was in the office for an interview, but with the number of applications we have, hiring her isn't suitable to our needs right now. She's free to come back in 30 days."
As for the signed letter, Ruff said he did not personally write it, and that it was drawn up in haste to satisfy Salvation Army requirements that prove lodge residents are actively looking for work. He did mention that transportation had occasionally been an issue with homeless employees in the past.
Jasica, who has taken up business classes at Itawamba Community College since coming to the Salvation Army in December, said she would have to just keep trying.

A beloved Tupelo business is closing it's door after 75 years of service.
Kenney's Fine Picture Framing has been run by the Kenney family since 1937. Leon Kenney begin framing 75 years ago on the second floor of his home on Allen Street. His living room served as the showroom. Bob Kenney, Leon's son said, "Framing was always kind of a hobby" for his dad. "He was a fine wood-craftsman. "
He gradually added on, building a studio out back that now serves as the main shop.
Leon Kenney retired from the Post Office in 1965 and begin working full time on his business. A comedian and magician, Bob has juggled being on the road and working in Tupelo until just a few years ago.

Film & Discussion: Anima Mundi
by Peter Charles Downey
Many people do not realize that permaculture is much more than about growing fruit and vegetables, it is a whole view incorporating the environment, energy, resources, housing, technology, education, healthcare, the arts, spirituality, psychology, philosophy and agriculture. It provides a realistic alternative for our future sustainability, a gentler way that treads lightly on our Mother Earth. Anima Mundi is not a "How To" video, it is a "Where To" documentary showcasing alternatives like Earthship's, Permaculture, Permablitz, retrofitting the suburbs, lifeboats, localized food production and currency's, planned energy decent and Gaian philosophy.
And many people do not realize that Anima Mundi is not a big budget documentary, it was put together by one person with little money, no industry connections, a clapped out car and a home-video camera. As a production, Anima Mundi fits within many permaculture principles; it has a very low embodied energy, it took minimal resources to produce, I made do with what was local and/or at hand, and I grew something that has flourished from what was once a barren landscape. Anima Mundi is not a film that offers false-hope solutions, it is a practical film about the nature of reality, and the harsh and beautiful reality of nature.

I 70 looks a lot brighter today. That's because the Antlers Staff cleaned it up for the 22nd year in a row. It's gotten to where we feel that our 2 mile stretch of highway atop Vail Pass is an extension of the Antlers property, or maybe even like a very lazy employee that can't clean up after himself. Either way, we know when this extra piece needs to get polished.
There were 18 of us this year and we even had a few guests help out (thank you Katie, Bob, Linda and Tim for joining us). These are some smart people. They saw the ad for the Highway Special and took advantage of the "Stay one Night and Get one Night Free with a catered Lunch afterwords and you get to keep any Valuables you may find if you help Us clean up on Highway Special Day".
Together, we managed to leave 40+ orange bags of trash along our 2 mile stretch of highway. That may seem like a lot (and it is), but those of us that have been doing this for awhile observed that it wasn't as much as last year. This means one of two things; 1. Either there is less traffic on I70…or… 2. People are actually conscience of the fact that throwing garbage out your windows at 65mph is really not a cool thing to do anymore. I don't think it's number one, so I choose number two. (Just an aside to throwing things away in the wrong place; Darwin, one of our houseman extraordinaires, who joined us on our "walk", didn't mind at all that someone; 1. consciously or 2. unconsciously, threw away a $100 bill. I don't think it was number one, so I'm going with number two).
Lots of sunshine, a great lunch, a bunch of laughs, and a good feeling about getting all that junk out of the gutter. It was a great day and thanks to everyone that helped out including our buddies from CDOT that follow up and the other buddies we work with that stayed behind to run the "ranch".
I Guess a Little Green,
I need to pick up this milk carton and I can't get this stupid bag to open.

I missed Band the first time around, but caught it's encore a few months back. I had read the book first and it was very faithful. I agree that all the characters get confusing if you don't have a program...
"Programs! get yer program! Can't tell a 'kraut from a commie wit'out a program!"
The missus watches Sex and the City. i think the funniest parts are when they are at the coffee shop talking. After that scene comes and goes I leave the room.
I don't watch Sopranos or OZ much, but Six Feet Under is one of my favorites. Unfortunately, it's always on when I'm at work, so I often watch the episodes sporadically and out of order.
I can't understand how people without HBO can enjoy television anymore.

Irish comedian Tommy Tiernan will be back in the province for a solo gig next week, and this time he hopes to be kidnapped.
"There's a writer called Michael Harding, he's an Irish guy who performed a one-man show out there last year or the year before, and he talked about falling in with a group of musicians and storytellers from St. John's and how he was up all night and drinking a lot and it sounded very, very Irish," Tiernan told The Telegram. "Whoever those people were, I'd like them to kidnap me, too."
He's even got the time, he said — he's arriving a couple of days before the show and is hoping to take in some of the nightlife and music of the capital city.
"I was very taken with St. John's the last few times I was there," he said. "I'm eager to experience the place."
Tiernan — who holds the impressive title of being second only to U2 in live-show ticket sales in Ireland — was last here in the spring of 2011, when he performed to a sold-out crowd at the St. John's Arts and Culture Centre as part of a Just for Laughs Tour.
His latest tour, "Stray Sod," will start at the Convention Centre in St. John's Wednesday and end in Edmonton April 21.
Why "Stray Sod?"
The concept is based on Celtic mythology that Tiernan doesn't quite understand, but which fascinates him.
There are certain fields in Ireland, he said, that have stray sods, enchanted pieces of grass that, if stepped on, would leave a person totally disoriented and lost. Turning a piece of clothing inside out, he said, will break the spell and allow you to leave the field.
"I kind of liked the idea of Ireland, as a country, being the stray sod and playing around with the notion that no matter where you are in the world, if you venture to Ireland, you would be granted another way of perceiving things," he explained. "While I was looking for a name for the show, I wanted something that I didn't really get. It's something that's beyond my understanding."
Tiernan's material last time around was quite edgy, touching on everything from sex and religion to alcohol, parenting and life on the road.
He's self-deprecating, high-energy and non-apologetic, and last year's audience laughed from the time he walked onstage and asked, "Are there any Irish in the house?" to his finale 90 minutes later, which saw him playing an invisible violin and receiving a standing ovation.
He'll have entirely new material this time, but will talk about Ireland, give a sort of modern twist on some folk tales and joke about life as a dad, now that he has six kids, ranging in age from one to 19.
(He insists having six is no harder than having one, since it's "just like watching a television. Doesn't matter how many channels you have, you're still watching television. If you have one kid in the house, you could have 40.")
Tiernan's got a reputation for offending groups of people with his material about Jesus, eastern European immigrant accents, the Holocaust and Down syndrome, among other topics, but he insists controversial isn't a word he'd ever use to describe himself, and says he's only ever been included in controversies that were devised by others.
When it comes to material, comedy only goes too far when it's not funny, he said, and being unfunny is the only sin in standup, in his eyes. It's the comedian's intention and spirit that makes the difference, he believes.
"There's a huge list of subjects that you have sensitivities toward, or, you know, that you can't talk about without taking into consideration people's pain. But I think in the context of comedy, if you make people laugh, then you've done your job, really," he said. "If they're not laughing, then you've got it wrong, and you've got it wrong either in your intentions or your spirit or your conceit."
It's like tuning into your inner Bugs Bunny and just waiting to see where you end up, Tiernan said.
"Now, there'll always be Elmer Fudds, hell-bent on destroying you, and you certainly couldn't call Bugs Bunny a respecter of any tradition, but it's his spirit that you appreciate. There's been lots of times when I've said the wrong thing or I've gone too far, but it's about as serious as Bugs Bunny.
"In the same way that somebody with a mental illness says something completely off the wall, you allow them, right? I think it's the same with comedians. We say things that are plainly offensive and ridiculous. I think if we're viewed through the prism of mental health, it makes it easier for everybody," Tiernan said, laughing.
Tiernan welcomes feedback and hecklers, saying it's part of the great democracy of standup comedy. He's good at dealing with it, too, and often improvises lines based on audience comments.
"That's why standup is better than opera," he said. "If people get bored at the opera, they don't start singing back, 'This is shit!' In stand-up, they do."
Tickets for Tiernan's "Stray Sod" show are $37.50 (plus tax, including surcharge) and are available at the Mile One Centre box office, by calling 576-7657 or online at www.mileonecentre.com.
Note: In a previous version, it was incorrectly reported that this show was at the Remax Centre. It takes place at the St. John's Convention Centre.

Chew on these nuggets of wisdom. These are actual quotes from fins fans during the week. Excuse me while I crack open a beer and celebrate and lmao. Anything in ( ) is my interjections, just for fun.
Luck really hasnt been that impressive when Ive watched him. He's the Great Hype Machine though so... (433 yds., yeah, overestimated. he's won rookie of the week 3 times, and is the first #1 pick to have a winning record after 8 games. I suppose that's hype?) - BigNastyDB13
Sorry, but the Colts will get killed this week. You heard it here first. (you should be a comedian) - dolphin777
How can they win with Luck and Wayne please Luck is gooo but not that good (yeah, Luck sucks)
If Dolphins stay hungry game will be over at half time - dolphin777
The Colts are overrated due to Luck (If 5-3 is overrated, I'll take it) - dolphin777
Colts suck. Philbin will expose and take advantage of every weak spot on that team. I see another game like the jets game. Domination on all 3 units. (then you woke up) - Daytona Fin
Fins win big this weekend. You can bet on that. (remind me to not ask you for gambling advice) Prepare to hear the national media talk about us all next week. The Packers game was an anomaly due the Pagano situation. - Codemaster
This Colts team is not a good team. (if that's true, what does that say about the phins?) - MadDog 88
The Colts have a bad OL, statistically Luck is not as good as Tannehill, (I got a stat for you, 5-3) and they have a pretty bad defense. - MadDog 88
I think we're going to smoke them. (I think you smoked too much doobage before the game) Their defense ****ing blows. - registeredguy
(aimed at colts fans) Maybe someone should refer them to this hysterical thread by the assclowns we just humiliated
http://forums.theganggreen.com/showthread.php?t=74838 (yeah, pretty funny thread. What does that have to do with the Colts?) - Vaark
Considering the fact that we are the #1 scoring Defense in the AFC (5th In The League), #2 In Sacks, #2 In passing touchdown's allowed, #2 in opposing QB rating #2 in passing completion, #3 in INT's. Add the the fact Andrew Luck is the fifth worst rated passer and completing only 55% oh his passes. I expect another complete and dominated game by this group of hungry piranhas. (how did those stats work out for ya?) - CRAZYDOLFAN305
We are getting pretty lucky here, fellas. I think the Colts will come out as flat next week as the Jets did today. - jMaL305
The Jets destroyed them, I'm not worried at all. (facepalm, yeah that's how it works in the nfl) - Phinatic8u
Andrew Luck meet Cameron Wake. (dolfans, meet the big fat L) - dolfan_
im feeling highly confident about our next 4 games before the pats. imagine 8-3 pats vs 8-3 fins december 2nd? who would've thought (yeah, who woulda thought? Not me) - Ilovemyfins4eva
Ummm....you mean the team who barely beat the hapless Titans??? (yeah, THAT team. LOL!) - AZStryker
What's going to happen is our DL will maul the Colts, forcing Luck into bad decisions. Our OL will maul the Colts, leading to success in the running game. Tannehill will take care of the rest. (yeah OK) -finomenal
Show up. (thanks for showing up and giving us another W) - Deeznutt
The Dolphins should double destroy them. Bush is going to have an epic game. (yeah, i'm sure they'll be talking about it for years to come. Epic LOL) - armyphin
The Colts will struggle big time. Bank it! (I won't be doing my banking with you anytime soon) - PASQUALE
Didn't the Jets recently do to the Colts, what we just did to the Jets? (didn't matter much, huh?) - zackmandude63
I think the Dolphins have a legit shot to go 3-0 over that stretch, and there is a real chance here for Miami to be fighting not just for the playoffs, but for the division in December when we play the Patriots twice. (get ahead of yourself much?) - registeredguy
I don't see it being close. (you need glasses son) - dcnr226
Phins 34
Colts 20
So you can run and tell THAT! Homeboy. (Oh I'm gonna run, to the fridge for another celebration beer!) - WVDolphan
the colts suck. we'd better smash them or quit acting like we're a legitimate contender. (I guess you're not legit. Have a nice off season) - 72champagne
Nah, he is just preparing his losing press conference. (care to rephrase that?) - Daytona Fin
I am so sick of the half ass Dolphin fins. We are not going to the super bowl. But this team will beat teams they are suppose to beat like the Colts (what have you got to say now? Crawl back down to your mom's basement) - dolphin777
You will not score 24 on our defense dream on Dolt fan. (looks like 23 was good enough) - PASQUALE
:420: :420: :420:

As issue theater goes, The Most Massive Woman Wins isn't strident, just relentless. The current production by the newly formed LaVoce Theatre (through January 30) maintains a tight emotional focus on its subject: female weight obsession and its dire consequences.
At less than 40 minutes, this play by Madeleine George doesn't overstay its welcome. Considering that it's arguing at us all that time, that's surprising. And despite the humorous tone of its title, this is a serious essay-in-action rather than the parade of easy ironies you might expect.
There's no disputing the issue: If a man is overweight, he might be considered prosperous. But when have you ever seen a woman patting her paunch in pride, unless she's pregnant?
The tone is set with the first line of the pre-show song, sung by the director, Julie Rackauskas, with her own guitar accompaniment. "Locked Up" begins: "You've never had me at hello," clueing in any Renee Zellwegers in the audience against being charmed by any smooth-talking Tom Cruises.
A row of four chairs is lined up in front of us, as though the actors will be taking turns stepping up to a lectern. But Rackauskas is well aware of the disadvantages of such a talky play and keeps things moving, at every opportunity physicalizing the feelings being discussed. At one point, for example, someone expressing hopelessness is backed up by the others, seated, dropping their heads between their knees in abject despair.
Playwright George helps things out when one actor is speaking by having the others act out or comment on the recollection being described: "She's too fat for jump rope!" three children shrilly exclaim when one character is detailing childhood embarrassments. The four young women represent a span of body types. They portray Cel (Jackie Marchetti), Rennie (Kaitlyn Hurley), Carly (Mary Beth Luzitano), and Sabine (Kira Hawkridge).
Early on, Carly mimics her boyfriend saying that "my butt and my gut were the parts he paid for." He tips a beer bottle to his lips and leaves a liposuction ad and a signed blank check for her to find. Fortunately, such a trite target doesn't pop up again. Obvious concerns need inobvious examples, and they are more frequent. More instructive is a restaurant manager who says he's seeking a certain aesthetic that rules out hiring "a woman of your stature" as a waitress. "No offense," he adds.
The usual pattern that we see is the one-two punch of social or parental conditioning followed up by guilt or criticism. The four actors sing the children's refrain "Little baby Sally, you're not sick — all you need is a peppermint stick," as an example of how food is used for comfort early on. Rennie recalls having "a Slimfast thrust into my hand at 12 years old," a mixed message if ever there was one. She also tells us about hiding in the kitchen during one of her mother's weddings, devouring an entire multi-tiered wedding cake in anger.
We are being inundated with media images that reinforce socially determined standards of femininity, a lecturer reminds us at one point. The response isn't amen but rather reprimands. "You are responsible for your own behavior," one of the women is told. "You are guilty!"

Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin appears to have forgotten there was an election in November. This is quite amazing given he was the candidate for vice president on the losing Republican side.
But last week Rep. Ryan, chairman of the House budget committee, rolled out his latest budget proposal, which differed little in substance from his past budget proposals and ignored the results of an election in which matters of spending and taxing took center stage.
Voters re-elected the Democrat, President Obama, who when running pledged to implement the Affordable Care Act and take a balanced approach to reducing deficit spending through a combination of spending cuts and tax reforms that would force the wealthier and corporations to shoulder a bigger share.
Yet here was Rep. Ryan presenting a spending package that included a repeal of the health care act, a budget that called for slashing the top tax rate from 39.6 percent to 25 percent, and cutting $4.6 trillion from spending over 10 years. The proposal is full of speculation, fudgy numbers and flawed logic about job creation. In reality cuts this severe are unwarranted and would cost jobs and drag down the economy.
Some of the ideas are as scary as they were before the election. Turn Medicaid and food stamp programs into block grants for the states, while reducing the federal funds to pay for them and removing safeguards to assure states don't withhold their share. Once again Rep. Ryan brings out his proposal to change Medicare from a guaranteed entitlement to a voucher system. Didn't voters teach him anything?
Meanwhile the Democrat-controlled Senate works on its own budget proposal - and the leadership there deserves equal condemnation for their repeated failures to produce a spending plan. But given where Rep. Ryan and the House are starting, it is hard to imagine where there is a middle to meet at.

The thing about the Clone Emperor possibly not being the Emperor came from a book about five years later. The point being, if he was really the Emperor returning from the grave, why didn't he try to contact his Hands, and instead assembled a new group of less talented cronies?
The only thing Dark Empire had going for it was the art. It was gorgeous, but totally inappropriate for SW.

There are two forms of membranoproliferative GN:
Most people with the disease have type I. Membranoproliferative GN II is much less common. It also tends to get worse faster than membranoproliferative GN I.
Many cases of membranoproliferative GN are due to causes such as:
The conditions mostly affect people ages 8 to 16.
Your doctor or nurse will examine you. You may have swelling (usually in the legs), along with other signs of fluid overload, such as abnormal sounds when listening to the heart and lungs with a stethoscope.
Blood pressure is often high.
Membranoproliferative GN may be seen as:
The following tests help confirm the diagnosis:
A kidney biopsy confirms the diagnosis of membranoproliferative GN I or II.
Treatment depends on the symptoms. The goals of treatment are to reduce symptoms, prevent complications, and slow the progression of the disorder.
You may need a change in diet. This may include limiting salt, fluids, or protein to help control high blood pressure, swelling, and the buildup of waste products in the blood.
Medicines that may be prescribed include:
Treatment is more effective in children than in adults. Dialysis or kidney transplant may eventually be needed to manage kidney failure.
The disorder often slowly gets worse and eventually results in chronic kidney failure.
Half of patients with this condition develop chronic kidney failure within 10 years. This is more likely in those who have higher levels of protein in their urine.
Call for an appointment with your health care provider if:
