Bible stories can be interesting whether you hear them at church or elsewhere. The Navajo creation myth is fascinating whether or not you're a Native American, after all. And if a story has the roller coaster action of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, it could become the musical that you can see at the Courthouse Center for the Arts, in West Kingston, through April 15.
With music by Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyrics by Tim Rice, the original snack box version of this empty-calorie but filling musical meal was their first public presentation. It was staged as a 15-minute cantata in 1968, five years before the full-blown production hit London's West End. In between, their controversial Jesus Christ Superstar, with its messiah humanized, came to Broadway on its way to becoming a perennial hit.
Joseph, like the other musical, descends toward tragedy in the first act but rises in the second with the character's redemption, unlike Superstar, which had no resurrection scene. A similar disappointment is in store for those expecting Bible chapter and verse here, since the entire narrative is sung, 25 songs over the two short acts. Music director Shawn Balduc thereby earns more credit than usual for that function in a musical, gathering an ensemble of pleasant voices to complement the work of director/choreographer Richard Sabellico.
This production comes across like an enthusiastic community theater production rather than something more polished, like most shows at the Courthouse. There is a chorus of 16 men, women, and children. And there's a handful of Egyptian Ishmaelites, plus a gaggle of Joseph's unfraternal brothers, specified as 11 but here only seven in most scenes, with five kids filling in when specific names come up.
On top of that limitation, this is not the best written of Webber/Rice collaborations, story-wise — the first act takes too long to get going, in flat contrast to the propulsion of later energetic songs. So it's especially fortunate that the two leads are very strong.
The Narrator guiding us through all this in 15 of the songs — more than the title character gets to sing — is Lizzy Palmer, whose charm frequently perks up our interest through sheer spunk and charisma. Even more impressive, being even more prominent, is Billy Steeves as Joseph. What a lovely voice. His acting is also well balanced, heightened when necessary but not overly intense, appropriate since this musical doesn't take itself too seriously.
From the Book of Genesis, the story of Joseph and his "coat of many colors" is initiated by his jealous brothers, who resent the paternal preference that the sartorial gift represents. They fail to kill him but do manage to sell him into slavery, showing their father his goat-blood stained coat.
Joseph's difficulties start when one of his dreams, which he had never failed to interpret accurately, indicates that his brothers will someday be subservient to him ("Your 11 sheaves of corn/All turned and bowed to mine"). After they sell him, he is taken into Egypt and resold to the prosperous Potiphar (Edwin Kane). But the man's bawdy wife (Alyssa Gorgone) takes a carnal liking to Joseph, and when they are found together in what looks like a compromising situation, Joseph is thrown into the dungeon.

Through war and peace, destitution and reconstruction, the University of Nebraska Omaha's (UNO) Center for Afghanistan Studies and its partners have been on the ground in Afghanistan – printing textbooks, training teachers and journalists, and advising U.S. government officials.
The center's team members have deep roots in Afghanistan. Many were born and raised there, later working and raising families amid history-making events.
Others have spent nearly their entire professional lives studying the country's culture and geography, visiting its cities and villages, and working with Afghans.
All are deeply committed to preserving Afghanistan's heritage and developing its economy and civil society.

So, you might agree that Obama was repeating a "talking point" which had some small grain of truth in it, but the wording was manipulated to make it sound like something different than it is?No, there is no specific break for moving offshore,
After looking at the facts, then, Romney's response was entirely appropriate.
You and I agree, that there is enough incentive for cost-saving by moving offshore, that such expenses should not be allowed as an expense.Jobs have been moving offshore for a LONG time already. I can't recall when I started speaking to call centers in India, but it's surely been a while ago. So, it is not surprising that corporations have a lot of $ sitting outside the US.corporations are sitting on $6 trillion in cash right now, $3 trillion of that is profits being held offshore untaxed.
And, the fact that they are sitting on so much cash right here, has to mean that they have reservations about how expanding their businesses in ways that will be profitable. Waiting for tax code to be changed in a permanent fashion might help them do their 5- and 10-year plans.
It is possible that as long as their is a govt that will not cut spending (won't even produce a budget that reveals & commits to their intentions), but continues to look for ways to siphon off their profits to increase revenues available to spend on things which will further restrict business (like giving more $ to increase the size of the EPA to come up with more regulations), the incentive to use that cash is dampened.
My own theory is that if Romney is elected, because business believes he will open up opportunity, they will immediately start planning for expansion. By the time Romney would take office, plans would be in place and the economy will get a rapid boost; similar to what happened with Reagan and the recession he had to deal with. If Romney then starts to make good on his promised policies, business/economy should start moving quickly. If Romney is elected, I'd expect the stock market to respond upward on Nov. 7.
The hope would be that Romney wouldn't be quite as naive as Reagan in believing that Ds will cut spending AFTER they raise taxes. Romney's experience in MA as governor could help him there.
Sweden's mode was to cut spending first ... then they were able to reduce taxes. They had no real choice since their taxes were already so high. When they cut spending it had to do with deficits growing too large. Since Sweden is basically a socialist-leaning govt, they may not even have realized that the GDP would grow as much as it did as the "secondary" consequence of reducing deficit spending. Growing GDP meant that they collected more gross revenue, with a lower tax rate.

Tapeworm is an intestinal infection with the tapeworm parasite found in beef or pork.
Teniasis; Pork tapeworm; Beef tapeworm; Tapeworm; Taenia saginata; Taenia solium; Taeniasis
Tapeworm infection is caused by eating the raw or undercooked meat of infected animals. Cattle usually carry Taenia saginata (T. saginata). Pigs carry Taenia solium (T. solium).
In the human intestine, the young form of the tapeworm from the infected meat (larva) develops into the adult tapeworm. A tapeworm can grow to longer than 12 feet and can live for years.
Tapeworms have many segments. Each segment is able to produce eggs. Eggs are spread alone or in groups, and can pass out with the stool or through the anus.
Adults and children with pork tapeworm can infect themselves if they have poor hygiene. They can ingest tapeworm eggs they pick up on their hands while wiping or scratching their anus or the skin around it.
Those who are infected can expose other people to T. solium eggs, usually through food handling.
Tapeworm infection usually does not cause any symptoms. However, some people may have abdominal discomfort.
People often realize they are infected when they pass segments of the worm in their stool, especially if the segments are moving.
Tapeworms are treated with medications taken by mouth, usually in a single dose. The drug of choice for tapeworm infections is praziquantal. Niclosamide can also be used.
With treatment, the tapeworm infection goes away.
Rarely, worms can cause a blockage in the intestine.
If pork tapeworm larvae move out of the intestine, they can cause local growths and damage tissues such as the brain, eye, or heart. This condition is called
Call for an appointment with your health care provider if you pass something in your stool that looks like a white worm.
In the U.S., laws on feeding practices and the inspection of domestic food animals have largely eliminated tapeworms.
Avoiding raw meat and cooking meat well enough (to greater than 140 degrees F for 5 minutes) will prevent tapeworm infection. Freezing meats to -4 degrees F for 24 hours also kills tapeworm eggs. Good hygiene and hand washing after using the toilet will prevent self-infection in a person who is already infected with tapeworms.

http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/...ref_map=%5B%5DCursive writing, compared to printing, is even more beneficial because the movement tasks are more demanding, the letters are less stereotypical, and the visual recognition requirements create a broader repertoire of letter representation. Cursive is also faster and more likely to engage students by providing a better sense of personal style and ownership.
Other research highlights the hand's unique relationship with the brain when it comes to composing thoughts and ideas. Virginia Berninger, a professor at the University of Washington, reported her study of children in grades two, four and six that revealed they wrote more words, faster, and expressed more ideas when writing essays by hand versus with a keyboard.[4]
There is a whole field of research known as haptics, which includes the interactions of touch, hand movements, and brain function.[5] Cursive writing helps train the brain to integrate visual, and tactile information, and fine motor dexterity. School systems, driven by ill-informed ideologues and federal mandate, are becoming obsessed with testing knowledge at the expense of training kids to develop better capacity for acquiring knowledge.
According to this article, the "Common Core" does not require that children learn cursive handwriting.

Midtown East
2nd Ave & E 47th St New York, NY 10017
4, 5, 6, 7, or S to 42nd Street.
Free screening presented with the Ford Foundation and Friends of Dag Hammarskjold Plaza.
Korey Wise and Sarah Burns will be in attendance at tonight's screening!
This riveting documentary about a horrible crime and a high profile trial that destroyed the lives of five innocent teenage boys demonstrates how deep-seated prejudices can play a crucial role in the perversion of justice.
The Central Park Five (Sarah Burns, Ken Burns, Dave McMahon | New York, NY | 119 min.)
Throughout New York's highs and lows, the legendary Central Park has remained, as Mayor Ed Koch says, "Holy." But on April 19, 1989, a 28-year old white woman was beaten and raped in New York's hallowed ground. Within days, five teenage boys, four black and one Hispanic, were arrested and indicted. The boys were tried first in the court of public opinion, and eventually found guilty in criminal court. In The Central Park Five, the filmmakers explore how these teenagers became a proxy for everything society fears, and how, in a rush for justice, the truth was ignored.
Co-directors Ken Burns, Sarah Burns and David McMahon paint a brutally honest portrait of New York City in 1989, a city very different from the place we live now, but one that echoes poignant similarities. New York then was a gritty city where crime was rampant; but even now law enforcement upholds certain policies such as "stop and frisk," where young Black and Latino men are stopped by cops at random, and held for minor infractions while law enforcement seeks to attach their mere existence to larger crimes.
Using heartbreaking testimonials from all five of the men convicted and ultimately exonerated in the Central Park Jogger case, alongside scholars, journalists, Mayor Koch and Mayor Dinkins, the filmmakers seek to make sense of what happened. In the search for justice we learn what happens when we dehumanize other people and the emotional toll of suffering hoisted upon young men who simply believed that the truth would come out. This compelling film about our city and our justice system asks the question: what lies are we willing to believe about other people in order to sleep soundly at night?

The youngest Kaplinski family member was born on 20 July, 13.24 GMT+0200. His name will most probably be Karl Aleksander Kaplinski, but we have yet one month to discuss it with Kersti. He was 50cm long (tall if he would be vertical) and weighted 3.67 kg, eyes are blue, hair (as much as he has it) seems to be brown. He likes to sleep (how nice for his parents!) and in general is very-very clever.
All concerned parties feel themselves very well. I spend yet day or two in hospital - which does not have yet net acess for patients. Not a big loss, although I much prefer email to phone for communicating with grandparents and other relatives.

According to the Henderson County Sheriff Ray Nutt, sheriff's deputies and Seven Points Police responded to a call Friday morning between 2:00 and 2:30 a.m. The call took them to 310 Wood Street in Seven Points.
The officers found that there had been a shooting at the residence. The victims were Kelsie "Shea" Maples, age 21, Jerrod Chamberlain, a man in his mid-twenties, and Jerry Wayne Foster, who is in his early twenties.
The three victims were transported to ETMC in Gun Barrel City. Jerrod Chamberlain was pronounced dead at ETMC, while the other two victims were transported by air flight to ETMC in Tyler.
The shooter was identified by witnesses as Nathan Benton, a Caucasian male in his mid twenties.
Officers began searching for Benton, who had fled the scene in a vehicle. Major Botie Hillhouse, Captain Brian Tower, and Lieutenant Kendell Wellman spotted Benton's vehicle on SH 274 and Jess Hinton Road in Seven Points.
Police attempted to stop Benton, but he fled and officers pursued for a short time. At the end of the pursuit, Deputy David Robertson, along with Hillhouse, Tower, and Wellman, found that the shooter, Benton, had apparently attempted suicide by shooting himself in the head. He was airlifted to Mother Frances Hospital in Tyler where he was pronounced dead.
The initial crime scene is being investigated by the Henderson County Sheriff's Office and Lead Investigator Wick Gabbard.
The secondary scene, in the suspect's vehicle, is being worked by Henderson County District Attorney's Office and Texas Rangers.
Authorities say the initial shooting apparently occurred as a result of a domestic dispute.

Now, this could be a useful program for the "stimulus". Seems relatively easy to implement.
Too bad I needed a new fridge last year. But there's still an old freezer in the garage (at least 30 years old & still running) which has more dead birds (for training) in it than people food.
I'm amazed at how much more electricity these old appliances use (according to the article). The tag on my new fridge said that it costs only $44/year to run at 8 cents/KWH.
However ... the electric company told me that the new LCD TVs use 2X the electricity; and plasma 3X ... as the old-fashioned TVs. Might actually make a market for old TVs.

Gleason-Pfauter (Studen) スイス
Tthe Company Mikron located in Biel/Bienne (CH) builds the first hobbing machine for the manufacture of cylindrical gears. This achievement leads to the beginning of the company's long history of success.
The first CNC controlled hobbing machines are introduced to the market. These machine types A15, A25 and A35 are still in operation in many plants and prove the extraordinary quality and longlife cycle of these renowned machines.
The gear department of Mikron AG is sold to the company Hermann Pfauter GmbH, Ludwigsburg, Germany. At the same time the branch of Pfauter Maschinenfabrik GmbH is founded in Switzerland.
The Hermann Pfauter GmbH is acquired by the American Gleason Group. The company name is changed to Gleason-Pfauter Maschinenfabrik. Gleason-Pfauter brings its new horizontal hobbing machines, models P60 and P90 to the market, replacing an older generation ofmachines. 15 years later both of these very popular machine models continue to be produced with the addition of new capabilities.
As demand for Gleason Hurth products grows worldwide,, the space in the existing plant in Biel/Bienne is no longer sufficient. The business location is relocated to Studen, where larger floor space and modern infrastructure are available to accommodate the significant growth anticipated in the future.
The production of the P210L machines is taken over from the parent company in Ludwigsburg. With this step Gleason-Pfauter Studen becomes the center of excellence for all horizontal machines within the Gleason Group.
The "Agilus" multifunctional machine is introduced to the market. This ground-breaking innovation allows for highly desirable turning, drilling, hobbing and chamfering on a single machine and just one clamping setup.
Today the branch of Gleason-Pfauter GmbH in Studen has grown to 80 employees, producing more than 70 machines a year for a growing array of customers around the world.

Where I stayed
Have you ever imagined a place in your head, or maybe your heart that was so full of love for other people, animals, and plants, it seemed to pull at your soul? That was La Mariposa for me, and now for all of us. I learned about it after hours of "cybersurfing", scouring the internet for that perfect place for our family to go, learn Spanish and become completely immersed in the Nicaraguan culture.
Online, I read countless stories (on Tripadvisor.com) of the magic of this place. And, for months before we left, thoughts of this place were the last to leave me as I fell asleep.
As I entered the jungle courtyard for the first time and imagination lost its grip to reality, my heart leapt. Paulette, the owner, has gone to great care to recultivate the land to its wild spirit
The next morning, the beauty continued. I wish I could weave the words here to tell this story the way it deserves to be told.... Imagine being greeted by 12 smiling and incredibly beautiful Nicaraguans, all happy to be there, ready to teach you Spanish and even more happy to share stories of their home, family, and country. For the first four hours of every day, we practiced our Spanish with our local teachers, laughing together, knowing even though this was their job, it was us who was receiving the reward! Hunter surprised me the most as he was bouncing around smiling, with a Spanish dictionary under his arm and some homework that he eagerly tackled, AFTER four hours of class! Those teachers know what they are doing
Mealtime at La Mariposa is also special...Paul was surprised to learn that eating rice for EVERY meal for a week did not get old, as the cooks here offered new and refreshing ingredients and presentation of the rice and all the vegetables at the table were grown at their organic farm. I have never tasted such delicious avacodos.... Mealtime was also a time for chatting with all the other travelers who are here for a week, or a month. There are lots of Canadians here, a young woman (20) who goes to UNH, and a Dutch woman.
We volunteered at a wonderful little school in a barrio of La Concha, the town we are in. The after school program is a true necessity here as the local community is very impoverished and it offers the parents more time to work, therefore more opportunity to put food on the table. This program is COMPLETELY funded by La Mariposa School. It has been running for 4 years now. We read with the children. They asked us to translate a book they had in English....that part didn't go so well. :) Paul brought his mandolin and the students were thrilled. Make sure to look at the pictures below, the smile on the older boy who helps with the children is something that will continue to warm my heart for years to come.
There are too many projects to list that Paulette and the money that comes through La Mariposa support. Picture all the things we take for granted: school teachers, supplies, food, books to have in your own home, clothing, and even water. We can tell you more about this when we get back.
Paul tried his hand at doing laundry the old fashion way, built in washboard sink included. It is a peculiar feeling to have your undies hanging out for all the world to see while people enjoy their tea.
All told, La Mariposa employs over 25 people, paying them far better wages than they could make elsewhere. The sense of pride they all share in their work here is something I hope Sawyer and Hunter can remember forever. The number of people in the local community that benefit from Paulette's vision, energy, and above all, love is truly countless
I have no doubt that God smiles down on La Mariposa and hopes its magic reaches as many people as possible
Post your own travel photos for friends and family More Pictures
Looks beautiful. Lidia and i have been keeping track of you guys.

Answers by Expert:
I can answer questions around the welfare of pet rabbits, basic health queries including gut stasis, diet worries and the proper welfare standards around housing rabbits (i.e. no wire floors, no small cages and they should be kept in properly bonded de-sexed pairs in very large enclosures). I cannot answer showing questions nor complex breeding issues as I do not agree with either, seeing the other end of the story in the world of rabbit rescue. If your rabbit is in distress, has any blood, isn't moving, has breathing issues or isn't eating, my answer will be, go to the vet!
I have two 10 year old rescue rabbits and have volunteered in rabbit rescue.
I belong to the RWAF (Rabbit Welfare Association & Fund) and have volunteered for a rabbit rescue.
I have no formal education on this subject, however read everything I can to keep up to date with current welfare standards and health problems. Both my rabbits have sensitive guts and constantly keep me on my toes.

By Parrish Alford/NEMS Daily Journal
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The biggest shot of Marshall Henderson's career turned out not to be a 3-pointer, and it didn't find the sweet spot.
Ole Miss had trouble with La Salle's athleticism, right to the final dagger when Tyron Garland started left and drove through the zone to score with his right hand, lifting the Explorers to a 76-74 win in Sprint Arena and into the Sweet 16.
La Salle will face Wichita State on Thursday in Los Angeles.
For Garland, previous such driving efforts had been snuffed by Ole Miss center Reggie Buckner, but the Explorers hit a couple of looping shots over Buckner as well.
"We couldn't contain them off the dribble and even in the zone. They are the most explosive team off the bounce we've played all year," Ole Miss coach Andy Kennedy said. "Their guard drove it through the best defender in the history of our program and made a play."
Ole Miss had a six-game winning streak snapped and ends the season 27-9, tying a school-record for wins set by the 2001 team that did reach the Sweet 16.
The Rebels had the ball with 44 seconds left and 12 on the shot clock. Henderson on the play was guarded from the arc and drove inside where his first attempt didn't draw iron, his second didn't go down and resulted in a shot clock violation.
There was contact with La Salle guard Tyreek Duren on the play but no foul call.
"I was like, 'Ref, he just took off my whole arm,' and he said, 'He did, he did, but I'm not calling a foul with 1 second left on the shot clock,'" Henderson said.
Henderson finished with 21 points going 8-for-21 from the floor, 4-for-15 from 3-point range.
The Explorers (24-9) held a 40-38 lead on the strength of guard Ramon Galloway, the South Carolina transfer, who was 5-for-8 from 3-point range and had 19 at the break.
Galloway's legs left in the second half, but teammate Sam Mills found his, hitting two big 3-point shots to keep Ole Miss from surging ahead.
Galloway finished with a game-high 24 points.
The Rebels had two big chances to put away a team playing for the third time in five days.
A 7-0 run gave Ole Miss a 59-55 lead, but Mills hit La Salle's first non-Galloway three of the night – the teammates were 0-for-9 before then – and it was a 61-60 game.
The Rebels surged ahead again and led 69-64 after a Buckner spin move with 4:18 to play, but La Salle got a five-point trip. Mills hit a 3 and was fouled by Williams. He missed the free throw, but Jerrell Wright rebounded and scored.
Off target
Rebels not named Henderson attempted only four 3-point shots and missed them all including Jarvis Summers' wide open look with a little more than a minute left in a game tied 74-all.
Ole Miss also could have won the game at the free throw line where it was just 10-for-21 with Murphy Holloway and Buckner a combined 5-for-12.
"If you dance with the devil eventually it's going to get you," Kennedy said. "We put ourselves in harm's way, and La Salle made us pay."

Serves 4
At Monterrey-style Mexican restaurants these are made with fat red hot dogs and are called salchichas rojos. In Tucson, they are called Sonoran hot dogs. There are all sorts of variations, but the bacon-wrapped weiner is essential. Look for a small size bolillo or torpedo roll to keep the bread-to-meat ratio in line. For an easy summer BBQ menu, serve the dogs with Mexican Grilled Corn on the Cob.
Put the cleaned tomatillos in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then turn off the heat and allow the tomatillos to soak for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, drain, and puree the tomatillos in a food processor. Add the cilantro, serranos, onion, garlic sugar, and lime juice to the food processor and pulse three or four times to combine. Season with salt to taste.
Mix the mayo, Tabasco, and lemon juice and use a funnel to put the mayo blend in a squeeze bottle. Wrap the wieners with the bacon slices so the sausage is completely covered. Cook the wieners on a comal or flat top, rolling them over until the bacon is crunchy on all sides, about 7 minutes. Cut a pocket into the buns to form a "boat" and toast them on the grill. When the wieners are cooked, divide the beans and avocado among the four rolls, spooning them inside the pocket and spreading on either side. Spread the cheese down the middle. Using tongs put one piping-hot bacon-wrapped wiener into the pocket of each roll. Top each wiener with onions and tomatoes. Spread the Salsa Verde across the top. Apply the mayo blend in squiggles across the top of the hot dog.

It is Ireland's make or break off season, certainly in terms of the fans and possibly as a result with Ross. Philbin has said, admittedly like nearly everyone else in the NFL, that he wants to build through the draft. As a consequence it is going to be hard to judge free agency, but the draft is crucial. If Ireland messes it up he is a goner.
Jeff Ireland: "Is your mother a prostitute?"
Dez Bryant: "No."
Jeff Ireland: "Damn. I've got picks and money."
"I've got money and pics"....that's like a serial killer saying he's got people out there......I don't trust him with money or pics....I hope he proves me wrong.
Ozzy rules!!
Of all my years following the NFL I don't think I have ever seen a GM set up a scenario like this. 60 Mill cap space AND a butt load of good draft picks. Love him or Hate him this Off season is going to be exciting.

Hospital Trustees Celebrate Quality Initiatives
Hospital Trustees Celebrate Quality Initiatives
Hospital trustees, chief administrators, and quality directors from the Hudson Valley recognize their peers for excellence in quality and patient safety
(Newburgh, NY . . . November 21, 2012) Trustees from hospitals in the Hudson Valley region gathered Monday, November 12, 2012, at the Doubletree Hotel in Tarrytown, New York for a celebration of clinical excellence and to learn more about the crucial role trustees play in the changing health care environment. The Regional Trustee Briefing, sponsored by the Northern Metropolitan Hospital Association (NorMet), paid tribute to hospital quality and patient safety initiatives selected by NorMet members as the most outstanding for 2012. NorMet represents hospitals in Westchester County and the six other Hudson Valley counties.
"As our health care delivery system becomes much more patient-centered and reimbursement becomes more value-based, quality improvement initiatives will play an ever increasing role across the continuum of care," said Kevin Dahill, president/CEO of NorMet. "Those facilities that embrace the challenges inherent in developing and maintaining robust performance improvement programs and can demonstrate measurable and meaningful results will succeed."
NorMet recognized first place regional winners in four categories:
- Hospital Division or Unit – Good Samaritan Hospital (Good Samaritan Regional Medical Center) for Elimination of Elective Deliveries (C-section and vaginal births) of Less than 39 Weeks
- Small Hospital – Northern Dutchess Hospital for Maintain Optimal Pain Control and Increase Patient Satisfaction by Decreasing the Amount of Opioid Use as Well as Adverse Opioid Effects Following Total Joint Replacement of the Hip and Knee
- Large Hospital – Vassar Brothers MedicalCenter for Improving Sepsis Treatment Leads to Saving Lives
- System – Greater Hudson Valley Health Systemfor Project ZERO Central Line-Associated Blood Stream Infection: Hardwiring Central Line Maintenance Best Practices in ICU.
White Plains Hospital received an Honorable Mention in the Large Hospital category.
The awards were presented by Steven Kelley, president/CEO of Ellenville Regional Hospital and Chair-elect of the NorMet board. Kelley offered remarks about the importance of ongoing performance improvement initiatives and the positive return those efforts have upon patients, their families, and the community.

Urban Warfare: Kia Concept to Battle Juke?
In Europe, the Audi SQ5 is powered by a TDI diesel engine. In North America and other markets, a high-performance diesel-fueled compact crossover probably checks too many niche boxes. Instead, our SQ5 gets the 3.0 TFSI gas engine producing 354 horsepower and 346 lb-ft of torque. It's hooked to an 8-speed Tiptronic automatic and quattro all-wheel drive is standard.
The SQ5's sport suspension lets the bodywork sit 1.18 inches lower than its standard-grade counterpart. 20-inch wheels are standard, and those so inclined can opt for 21-inchers. Brake calipers are adorned with SQ5 logos.

UPDATE July 22, 2009: WASHINGTON (Fox News) -- President Obama's nominee for
"regulatory czar" has hit a new snag in his Senate confirmation process -- a
"hold" by Texas Sen. John Cornyn, who's says he's not convinced that Harvard
professor Cass Sunstein won't push a radical animal rights agenda, including
new restrictions on agriculture and even hunting.
Senators are permitted "holds" to prevent a vote on a nominee from coming to
the floor. They are often secretive and for very specific reasons.
"Sen. Cornyn finds numerous aspects of Mr. Sunstein's record troubling,
specifically the fact that he wants to establish legal 'rights' for
livestock, wildlife and pets, which would enable animals to file lawsuits in
American courts," the Republican's spokesman, Kevin McLaughlin, said in a
statement to FOXNews.com.
I wrote Mr. Cornyn and letter of THANKS! and contact our own here in Washington State! Please join me in doing the same.....
Have a great day,

OverviewGetting ThereReviews
Canaveral National Seashore and Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, located on the Atlantic coast just east of Orlando and Titusville, are separate sites that share a common boundary (Route 402) and a common bond. Though each is distinct -- the former is managed by the National Park Service, the latter by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service -- it is difficult to visit either without visiting both. Both are birding hot spots, especially during winter and spring migrations. At least 310 bird species have been identified in the area, including 27 kinds of wintering shorebirds, and concentrations of winter waterfowl sometimes exceed 100,000 individuals. Small flocks of Florida Scrub Jays can be spotted along the scrubby roadsides between the visitor center and Playalinda Beach. Plants, too, are plentiful: approximately 1,050 species of plants, including coastal Beach Sunflowers and Sea Daisies, have been identified at the two sites.
Leading off Route 406 just northwest of the visitor center, 6-mile Black Point Wildlife Drive meanders through flatwoods and impounded marsh, affording excellent views of wildlife. This is the best place to see large concentrations of waterfowl and shorebirds in winter, Roseate Spoonbills and Black-necked Stilts in summer, and herons, ibises, and egrets year-round. Alligators are also common. The turnoff for the 5-mile Cruickshank Trail, named for the wildlife photographer, writer, and naturalist who helped establish the refuge, is located about halfway around the drive. The trail encircles a picturesque marsh and includes an observation tower and a blind for photographers.
Located off Route 402 about a mile east of the visitor center, the 1/2-mile Oak Hammock and 2-mile Palm Hammock Trails trails pass through typical coastal oak-palm hammocks. Situated at the eastern end of Route 402, Playalinda Beach is a popular spot for swimmers and sunbathers. The undeveloped beach (as well as others within the confines of the seashore) is known as a nesting site for marine turtles such as Loggerheads and Green Turtles during the summer. Females arrive at night, lumber up the beach to the edge of the dune line, scratch out a nest cavity in the sand, lay their eggs, then return to the ocean.
North of Playalinda Beach and accessible only by foot, bicycle, or horseback (in deference to sea turtles, horses are allowed only from November 1 to April 30), this is one of the longest stretches of undeveloped beach on Floridas eastern coast. The trail that follows behind the dune is good birding territory. Backcountry camping (by permit only) is allowed on parts of the beach during winter and early spring.
Mosquito Lagoon, an inland waterway some 20 miles long, is lined with mangroves and dotted with small, sometimes marshy islands. Canoes can be launched just north of Turtle Mound Trail.

Term: kabbalah
"Qabalah" is a Hebrew word that means "tradition." It is derived from the root word "Qibel," meaning, "to receive." This refers to the ancient custom of handing down the esoteric knowledge by oral transmission. What the word Qabalah encompasses is an entire body of ancient Hebrew mystical principles that are the cornerstone and focus of the Western Esoteric Tradition. Virtually all Western spiritual systems can trace their roots to the Qabalistic Tree of Life. The exact origins of the Qabalah are unclear, but it certainly contains some vestiges of Egyptian, Greek, and Chaldean influence.
By its nature, mysticism is knowledge that cannot be communicated directly, but may be expressed only through symbolism and metaphor. Like other esoteric systems, Qabalah also draws upon the mystic's awareness of the transcendence of the Divine or the Eternal. Another element of Qabalah is that of theosophy, which seeks to reveal the hidden mysteries of the Divine as well as the relationship between the Divine Life on one hand, and the life of humans on the other. The goal of the Qabalist is to discover and invent keys to the understanding of arcane symbols that reflect the eternal mysteries.
source: The Truth about the Golden Dawn, Chic Cicero and Sandra Tabatha Cicero
Cabala: Cabala...is a system of mysticism with its origins in Judaism, stemming in part from the "chariot" visions of first-century mystics, in part from Gnosticism and Neoplatonism, in part from the theological speculations of medieval Spanish Jews, and in part from later thinkers. For many centuries, cabala was the accepted form of mysticism and theology within Judaism, but for the most part it has now fallen out of favor in religious contexts. Nevertheless, many rabbis and Jewish scholars still take an interest in it. As a philosophy and as a way of looking at God and the universe, it survives in yet wider quarters. Especially in the form developed by Christian enthusiasts in the Italian Renaissance and by 19th-century Christian and pagan occultists, cabalism retains vast importance as the key to mystical thinking outside of the mainstream and to the practice of ceremonial magic.
source: The Truth About Cabala, David Godwin
Kabbalah: A mystical system which forms the mystical underpinnings for the three major Western religions as well as for modern Ceremonial Magick. The word is transliterated Hebrew, and is spelled in English in various ways, including Qabala, Cabala, etc.
source: Modern Magick, by Donald Michael Kraig
Also spelled Qabalah, Cabala, Cabbala, and even Quabala, the Kabbalah is a complete system of knowledge about all the dimensions of the universe and of the human psyche organized into "the Tree of Life" diagram showing the inner construction and the connections between levels and forms of consciousness, energy, and matter. It provides a resource for understanding and applying the principles of Magick, for understanding the dynamics of the psyche, and for interpreting human history and action. The present-day Tarot specifically relates to the Tree of Life.

Binghamton University nursing students conduct annual disaster drill
BINGHAMTON, NY -- The annual disaster drill coordinated by Binghamton University's Decker School of Nursing students, faculty and staff will begin at 8:30 a.m. Tuesday, May 5, in the University Events Center.
The drill will simulate two gas explosions, which will "injure" people and force many to go through decontamination. The first explosion will occur at 8:30 a.m. and the second will follow at 9 a.m. The drill will come to a close at 1 p.m. when a debriefing will begin.
During the mock disaster drill, the Events Center will act as a temporary medical center, as assistance will be provided by responders from the American Red Cross, Vestal EMS, Metropolitan Emergency response team, Harpur's Ferry and the New York State University Police at Binghamton.
Participants will utilize the Incident Command System (ICS) as an education tool. ICS is a standardized, all hazard incident management system used throughout the United States.

"Scouting is not an abstruse or difficult science: rather it is a jolly game if you take it in the right light. At the same time it is educative, and (like Mercy) it is apt to benefit him that giveth as well as him that receiveth." Baden-Powell of Gilwell.
I have been digging into my copy of Aids to Scoutmastership once again. I find that the little book written by Baden-Powell in 1920 still holds water today. As BP makes clear in Aids to Scoutmastership, the book is not an instruction manual, rather it is a book outlining Why we do what we do in Scouting. And once we know why we are doing something it is easier to see the vision and achieve the goals or aims. I would encourage you to get a hard copy of this. Mine is full of notes and highlights.. a must for every Scoutmaster.
Seeing the vision and understanding the goals are an important part of the Scoutmasters job. I think that too many Scoutmasters get caught in the "game" that they lose focus on the goal. Now, "the game" may be different in each unit and dependent on the leader. Some pay particular attention to advancement, while others focus on the outings. In most cases there is a good balance, but there still is a missing piece. That piece is the Aims and the Why we are playing this game with a purpose.
It is nice to watch as a Scout becomes and Eagle Scout. As a Scoutmaster, I love to sit and talk with a young man who has earned the Eagle Award. Like the leader that misses the true goal of Scouting though a young man may only think that he has achieved the highest rank. He may thing that he is a the end of the journey because he is now an Eagle Scout. But that is not the case, he is far from done, he is just beginning.
In becoming an Eagle Scout he is starting to realize the vision and starting to grow in his manhood life long habits of good decision-making, life skills, leadership, and of course being a good citizen.
The other night I sat with a Scout in my troop for his Scoutmaster Conference. He has completed all of the requirements to earn his Eagle Award. Yes, he has completed all of the requirements, but he has actually become an Eagle Scout. In our discussion we talked more about the future and why he is going to be successful. He looked back at all of the challenges that got him to this point and I was happy to hear that instead of making them a negative thing, he looked back on them as learning points along his Scouting trail.
We talked about leadership. It has taken this Scout a little longer to develop into a leader, but he is there now and we talked about the different ways in which he developed those skills. It was important for me to remind him that in becoming an Eagle Scout he has demonstrated that he has what it takes to lead. The American public may not know much about Scouting other than helping old ladies across the street, but they all know that being an Eagle Scout is special. They look to Eagle Scouts to lead.
Where am I going with this?
We often lose the forest for the trees as they say. We make sure to teach camping skills and encourage Scouts to earn all the merit badges they can… but what of the Aims? What about the purpose of Scouting? I think that is what BP was reminding those leaders back in 1920 and he continues to remind us today… Stay focused on why we play this game with a purpose. It is not about Eagle Scouts. It is about Citizens of Character that are fit. The BSA reminds us in the mission statement that we are to teach young people to make ethical choices over their lifetimes. This is why we go camping, do service projects, earn merit badges and become Eagle Scouts.
I love digging in that old book. It gets me refocused on what is important.
Have a Great Scouting Day!

By Patsy R. Brumfield/NEMS Daily Journal
Former District Attorney Johnny Young says his office didn't know anything about threats to Kim Kirk Cox by her husband.
David Cox murdered his wife in 2010 just a couple of weeks after he bonded out of the Pontotoc County Jail.
He recently was sentenced to death for her murder and other crimes associated with a fatal trailer standoff in Sherman.
In a recent Daily Journal article about events leading up to Kim's death, her father, Bennie Kirk of Myrtle, said he blamed Young's office for not telling the judge about his son-in-law's threats to kill Kim.
Young's then-assistant, Larry Baker, declined to speak about the case as the article was being written.
In early April 2010, a circuit judge reduced David Cox's bond after a grand jury failed to indict him on sexual assault charges associated with a minor female. That left him facing indictment only for child endangerment and possessing ingredients for meth.
"What he said implies that we knew about the threats," Young told the Daily Journal last week. "I knew of no threats made by this defendant prior to his bond hearing.
"I knew none prior to this lady's death," he said.
The Daily Journal called Young's Corinth home Oct. 10 for a response to Kirk's statements, but no machine or person answered.
Young was defeated last fall in his quest for a ninth term as district attorney. Bennie Kirk said his daughter's death was one reason Young lost votes in Pontotoc County.
"If someone had told me about one threat," Young noted, "I would have had him arrested immediately. I can't act on something I didn't know about.
"I wish someone would have told us – we could have done more."
Kim Kirk Cox's death brought about change, anyway.
The Mississippi Legislature passed a law in 2011 requiring domestic abuse information to be kept in a registry, which judges must check before setting or reducing a defendant's bond.


text: When the club needs that extra winger or holding blind, or maybe even a four wheeler to run birds around or move equipment and the "big bad PRO" with 12-15 dogs running says "here use mine" I think that should be apprecited and not expected. And I can think of more than one event where the pro has come up to help with moving equipment or offered one of their helpers to throw or plant a blind too. I see the pros being very accomodating when they are able and not running to 3 different venues to run dogs because the marshalls need them at all 3 spots at once.

I'm not supposed to tell you this. I'm violating the code. I'm giving away the deepest, darkest secret of the foreign policy clan: even though we sound like we know everything, we know very little, especially about the intentions of bad guys and the consequences of war. But since the media keeps treating us like sages and keeps ignoring our horrendous mistakes, we carry on with our game, and do a lot of damage. Let me give you of few of the more recent examples of how ignorant and dangerous we are, and why you should be wary of any flat out "truths" and certainties uttered by my clanspeople.
Take Iran. Those who can't wait to start a war with Iran tell us that Tehran is within three seconds, three months, or a year of developing a nuclear weapon. I promise you they don't know this for anything near a fact. They're trying to push Israel and the United States into a military attack against Iran.
Here's all we do know for sure: Iran is enriching uranium and has the capacity to enrich enough of it to a level of purity sufficient to make nukes—maybe, perhaps, in a year or two or more. Iran may have or may be developing related capacities to place this uranium into explosive form in a bomb or missile warhead. We have suspicions about the latter based on various kinds of imaging and listening intelligence.

angel ram?
I went to my lfs today and they had just gotten in an angel ram. I've never seen one before and cant seem to find much info on them online. Does anyone know how big they get? Are they similar to the other rams when it comes to aggression? What water parameters do they need?
what i have found about the "angel" ram is that it is technically the "balloon" ram. which is a genetically modified german blue ram. it'll look more like a balloon molly mixed with a ram by the end of its life.
so if you start your search there..you'll find more info.
however, i would recommend you not get this fish.
they get very ugly (IMO) and i'm not a fan of genetically modified fish. the EBR however, is okay because it is a color morph....the "angel" ram is a physical morph and b/c of that aren't as successful in surviving long term.
you have to keep in mind: they are cichlids, they are sensitive, and they are cichlids (have to hit on the point twice)

Oh my goodness, I thought that cherishing the corner pieces was something only our family did:). Glad to know we are not the only ones! This looks delicious. Have you ever tried a chocolate icing? My grandmother did this & it's since been passed down to me. It makes for a decandant chocolate cake.ReplyDelete
This recipe sounds so good! And if a non-frosting lover enjoyed it, it must be amazing! I can't wait to try it out. :) Thanks for sharing!ReplyDelete

Ryan: Tax Reform Will Help Workers and Families
WASHINGTON—House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan of Wisconsin issued the following statement in response to House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Dave Camp's tax-reform proposal:
"My friend Chairman Dave Camp has put together a bold plan to fix our broken tax code. His plan would get this economy growing and offer much-needed relief to families and workers.
• This plan will create up to 1.8 million new jobs.
• GDP growth will increase by $3.4 trillion (the equivalent of 20 percent of today's economy).
• The average middle-class family of four will gain an extra $1,300 a year.
• 95 percent of filers will get the lower possible tax rate by claiming the standard deduction.

I'd be interested in having RTC onboard
# The newer Micro-USB receptacles are designed for up to 10,000 cycles of insertion and removal between the receptacle and plug, compared to 1500 for the standard USB and 5000 for the Mini-USB receptacle. This is accomplished by adding a locking device and by moving the leaf-spring connector from the jack to the plug, so that the most-stressed part is on the cable side of the connection. This change was made so that the connector on the less expensive cable would bear the most wear instead of the more expensive micro-USB device.
There are only a couple of reasons that I can see the justification for the mini-USB connector:1) Availability of power adaptors/wall warts with a mini-USB plug output.2) No worries about a shield "shorting out" with the mini-USB jack.
